It's 21 00:01:22,228 --> 00:01:26,428 Speaker 1: Kyle Brant, Peter Schrager, Jason mccrardy. So many questionable things 22 00:01:26,468 --> 00:01:28,988 Speaker 1: happen for the charts in that game. Doug Peterson and 23 00:01:29,228 --> 00:01:34,748 Speaker 1: disbelief brings his team back to get the victory. Jacksonville 24 00:01:34,908 --> 00:01:37,468 Speaker 1: first overall picked this year with Trey Vaul Walker and 25 00:01:37,508 --> 00:01:40,868 Speaker 1: now they're onto the divisional route and our very own 26 00:01:41,068 --> 00:01:44,268 Speaker 1: camera Wolf outside of the waffle House was able to 27 00:01:44,308 --> 00:01:46,788 Speaker 1: catch up No after the game, catches up with Trevor 28 00:01:46,868 --> 00:01:50,268 Speaker 1: Lawrence after their big win. We're never out of the fight, 29 00:01:50,428 --> 00:01:52,788 Speaker 1: doesn't matter, doesn't matter who we're playing, where we're playing, 30 00:01:52,908 --> 00:01:56,268 Speaker 1: when we're playing, how the game's gone the first half, 31 00:01:56,588 --> 00:01:59,228 Speaker 1: you know, the first three quarters, we always got a shot. 32 00:01:59,308 --> 00:02:02,028 Speaker 1: And that's that's kind of the that's kind of what 33 00:02:02,068 --> 00:02:03,788 Speaker 1: you want to build in the team and an organization 34 00:02:03,788 --> 00:02:05,228 Speaker 1: to culture. And you know, I'll give all the credit 35 00:02:05,268 --> 00:02:07,908 Speaker 1: to coach Peterson. It takes more than obviously him, but 36 00:02:08,068 --> 00:02:10,828 Speaker 1: just the mindset and the belief that he's brought to 37 00:02:10,908 --> 00:02:13,068 Speaker 1: this team, it starts with him and it just has 38 00:02:13,148 --> 00:02:17,788 Speaker 1: kind of trickled throughout all right, Getty up. It is 39 00:02:17,828 --> 00:02:19,748 Speaker 1: the Jaguars. They move on, they go to Kansas City. 40 00:02:19,748 --> 00:02:23,388 Speaker 1: Here's a look at your AFC Divisional schedule. This is 41 00:02:23,548 --> 00:02:27,668 Speaker 1: next weekend split one on Saturday. One on Sunday. That's 42 00:02:27,668 --> 00:02:30,508 Speaker 1: a Bengals Bills rematch from a game that was not 43 00:02:30,668 --> 00:02:33,348 Speaker 1: completed a couple of weeks prior. And then you got 44 00:02:33,428 --> 00:02:37,348 Speaker 1: Jags and the Chiefs head to head on Saturday afternoon. 45 00:02:38,268 --> 00:02:41,628 Speaker 1: Epic is the word that's in front of me right now. 46 00:02:42,508 --> 00:02:45,268 Speaker 1: It was unbelievable thirty three. Nothing happened in the regular season. 47 00:02:45,268 --> 00:02:47,668 Speaker 1: This one felt different. It was a Charger's collapse. It 48 00:02:47,748 --> 00:02:50,148 Speaker 1: was Jaguars coming out of nowhere. Is like a tidal wave. 49 00:02:50,228 --> 00:02:52,508 Speaker 1: Jason had all the makings and you were their first 50 00:02:52,508 --> 00:02:54,228 Speaker 1: hand to see it all go down. Yeah, I'm at 51 00:02:54,268 --> 00:02:56,588 Speaker 1: this game. I'm calling it for Westwood one with Ian 52 00:02:56,668 --> 00:02:59,508 Speaker 1: Eagle and the first half taking place in Trevor Lawrence. 53 00:02:59,548 --> 00:03:01,828 Speaker 1: The four interceptions, but then they also had to turnover 54 00:03:01,908 --> 00:03:05,428 Speaker 1: on special teams five turnovers and game and we're just 55 00:03:05,708 --> 00:03:08,388 Speaker 1: the second half is gonna be brutal. And the Jacks 56 00:03:08,428 --> 00:03:10,748 Speaker 1: came to play Doug Peterson. Whatever he said to them 57 00:03:10,828 --> 00:03:14,628 Speaker 1: at halftime, they understood the Simon. They understood the message 58 00:03:14,668 --> 00:03:17,468 Speaker 1: and they came out firing on all cylinders and a 59 00:03:17,468 --> 00:03:19,388 Speaker 1: lot of it was the guys that they brought in 60 00:03:19,828 --> 00:03:23,748 Speaker 1: and the all season Christian Kirk, Evan Ingram, these guys 61 00:03:23,868 --> 00:03:27,348 Speaker 1: making plays, Zay Jones, they were all over the field. 62 00:03:27,348 --> 00:03:29,908 Speaker 1: And Christian Kirk all all season was this this contract 63 00:03:29,908 --> 00:03:34,268 Speaker 1: they gave him so masso million? Why him? And he 64 00:03:34,388 --> 00:03:36,708 Speaker 1: showed it. It's awesome. Should it in the playoffs and 65 00:03:36,748 --> 00:03:39,548 Speaker 1: these guys have been great all year and it felt 66 00:03:39,548 --> 00:03:41,668 Speaker 1: like every time they needed to play, it was Evan 67 00:03:41,868 --> 00:03:45,148 Speaker 1: Ingram not only making a play, but talking trash, firing 68 00:03:45,228 --> 00:03:47,628 Speaker 1: up the crowd, and they just had the momentum the 69 00:03:47,908 --> 00:03:51,708 Speaker 1: entire second half and Doug Peterson's ability to use all 70 00:03:51,748 --> 00:03:55,548 Speaker 1: of these weapons, Trevor Lawrence spreading it all throughout the field. 71 00:03:55,708 --> 00:03:57,908 Speaker 1: It was so much fun to watch them come back, 72 00:03:58,108 --> 00:04:01,108 Speaker 1: especially in that stadium. Jaguars fans have been waiting for 73 00:04:01,148 --> 00:04:03,948 Speaker 1: this for so many years, and all night all you 74 00:04:04,028 --> 00:04:08,348 Speaker 1: heard was dull. They stayed in the stadium forever, waving 75 00:04:08,428 --> 00:04:11,828 Speaker 1: a white Town twenty seven nothing. It was still a vibe, yes, yes, 76 00:04:11,948 --> 00:04:13,948 Speaker 1: still a vibe. It was quiet for a while, but 77 00:04:14,028 --> 00:04:16,108 Speaker 1: as soon as they scored. I talked to Tony Baselli 78 00:04:16,148 --> 00:04:18,708 Speaker 1: at halftime. He said, we've been down seventeen two other 79 00:04:18,708 --> 00:04:20,788 Speaker 1: times this season. That touchdown I had to end of 80 00:04:20,828 --> 00:04:22,508 Speaker 1: a half is gonna be what sparks for us to 81 00:04:22,588 --> 00:04:24,908 Speaker 1: possibly come back and win this game. And they did it. 82 00:04:24,988 --> 00:04:26,708 Speaker 1: And that was impressive for the fans of the stay 83 00:04:26,708 --> 00:04:28,748 Speaker 1: there because I've heard it was dangerously coles, like fifty 84 00:04:28,748 --> 00:04:33,388 Speaker 1: four degrees. It was cold. It was cold. So my 85 00:04:33,468 --> 00:04:36,268 Speaker 1: guy Jackson de Villain a speedo after the game. It 86 00:04:36,308 --> 00:04:41,668 Speaker 1: was awesome. But for Jackson, look out, Peter. I want 87 00:04:41,708 --> 00:04:43,828 Speaker 1: to talk about the Chargers, and I know this. This 88 00:04:43,948 --> 00:04:46,308 Speaker 1: is gonna be like all right, say this. Here we go, 89 00:04:46,668 --> 00:04:48,788 Speaker 1: shot in front all the stuff like here we have. 90 00:04:49,068 --> 00:04:50,988 Speaker 1: The crazy thing with the Chargers is there was a 91 00:04:51,068 --> 00:04:53,388 Speaker 1: million different times in this game they could have stopped 92 00:04:53,388 --> 00:04:55,588 Speaker 1: the bleeding in a million different decisions. I'm gonna go 93 00:04:55,628 --> 00:04:57,548 Speaker 1: to the punt that you said where it bounces off 94 00:04:57,588 --> 00:04:59,548 Speaker 1: the guy's head and they get the ball. Put this 95 00:04:59,588 --> 00:05:01,748 Speaker 1: game away right here. You can go up thirty one 96 00:05:01,788 --> 00:05:03,788 Speaker 1: to nothing with a touchdown. You're on the six, you're pounding, 97 00:05:04,388 --> 00:05:07,308 Speaker 1: and what do they do? Justin Herbert Sales won over 98 00:05:07,428 --> 00:05:09,188 Speaker 1: keenan Allen's head and they set up for the field 99 00:05:09,228 --> 00:05:12,108 Speaker 1: goal and everyone's like, all right, it's fine. Sales it 100 00:05:12,188 --> 00:05:14,308 Speaker 1: over his head and you're like, all right, we'll set 101 00:05:14,348 --> 00:05:16,268 Speaker 1: up for three. We'll just go up twenty seven. Nothing 102 00:05:16,268 --> 00:05:19,388 Speaker 1: we should be saying, but I'll break the fourth wall here. 103 00:05:19,908 --> 00:05:22,548 Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport and I were texting and I say, this 104 00:05:22,628 --> 00:05:25,108 Speaker 1: is this feels like one of those that like maybe 105 00:05:25,188 --> 00:05:28,068 Speaker 1: on Monday, we're like, hey, that you could have had 106 00:05:28,108 --> 00:05:30,948 Speaker 1: that one, and in texting, tweeted me right, texted me 107 00:05:31,028 --> 00:05:32,988 Speaker 1: right back, and he's like, we'll see, you know, and 108 00:05:32,988 --> 00:05:35,788 Speaker 1: obviously you'll see, but you feel like those little moments 109 00:05:35,788 --> 00:05:38,188 Speaker 1: and there was just one paper cut after another paper 110 00:05:38,188 --> 00:05:40,468 Speaker 1: cut after another paper cut, and you could identify a 111 00:05:40,588 --> 00:05:42,908 Speaker 1: hundred different plays in this game that the Chargers could 112 00:05:42,908 --> 00:05:44,988 Speaker 1: have just put this thing away. But you get the 113 00:05:45,028 --> 00:05:46,908 Speaker 1: ball on the six on first down, and you can't 114 00:05:46,908 --> 00:05:49,108 Speaker 1: get a touchdown to put it away thirty one points. 115 00:05:49,108 --> 00:05:50,908 Speaker 1: You only get the field goal, and Herbert to Allen's 116 00:05:50,908 --> 00:05:53,108 Speaker 1: been money all season. If I'm a Chargers fan, I'm 117 00:05:53,148 --> 00:05:55,028 Speaker 1: sick this morning. You and he were just talking ball 118 00:05:55,068 --> 00:06:02,468 Speaker 1: and you're talking. Come in. I want to just talking 119 00:06:02,468 --> 00:06:06,468 Speaker 1: about just kind of chatting reacting to the game. And 120 00:06:06,708 --> 00:06:08,868 Speaker 1: I would say this, like I think as the comeback 121 00:06:08,988 --> 00:06:11,468 Speaker 1: was kind of coming, I would say we were. It 122 00:06:11,508 --> 00:06:13,828 Speaker 1: was pretty clear. Like I I don't know if I'm 123 00:06:13,868 --> 00:06:18,308 Speaker 1: allowed to say I hate the expected win percentage it kills. 124 00:06:18,388 --> 00:06:22,348 Speaker 1: It was like percent charges and I'm like, no, like 125 00:06:23,588 --> 00:06:25,628 Speaker 1: at that point I think Jaguars are down thirteen or fourteen, 126 00:06:25,628 --> 00:06:27,388 Speaker 1: I'm like, it's not ninety eight percent. It's one hundred 127 00:06:27,388 --> 00:06:29,508 Speaker 1: percent that the Jaguars are winning this game. You could feel, 128 00:06:29,508 --> 00:06:30,828 Speaker 1: you could feel it. Somebody. I thought you were going 129 00:06:30,868 --> 00:06:32,548 Speaker 1: to say you hate the ratio of texts you receive 130 00:06:32,628 --> 00:06:34,548 Speaker 1: from Peter Schrager per the one that you send back, 131 00:06:34,548 --> 00:06:39,628 Speaker 1: because Peter's like a s No, I'm on the same program. Fire. 132 00:06:39,668 --> 00:06:41,708 Speaker 1: I'm getting accused a lot of just the one word text, 133 00:06:41,748 --> 00:06:43,348 Speaker 1: but I mean it's what it is. That's how you 134 00:06:43,348 --> 00:06:45,948 Speaker 1: guys go back and forth when Peter texts, stay your 135 00:06:45,948 --> 00:06:50,108 Speaker 1: own humans, because it's called one word. I will say 136 00:06:50,148 --> 00:06:52,668 Speaker 1: this when you're when you're trying to like focus on 137 00:06:52,748 --> 00:06:54,628 Speaker 1: news and whatever, and you have a phone in your 138 00:06:54,628 --> 00:06:59,508 Speaker 1: pockets saying it's b B and I'm missing nor Well, 139 00:06:59,508 --> 00:07:02,428 Speaker 1: thank you, I'm gonna go back. I'm just jealous. I 140 00:07:02,428 --> 00:07:03,868 Speaker 1: wasn't on the thread. If you guys are talking about 141 00:07:04,788 --> 00:07:09,668 Speaker 1: I just said, wasn't. I say this quickly though. This 142 00:07:09,708 --> 00:07:11,108 Speaker 1: game will be looked back on for years. We'll be 143 00:07:11,188 --> 00:07:12,948 Speaker 1: talking about this game in twenty five years because it's 144 00:07:12,948 --> 00:07:15,388 Speaker 1: one of the largest comebacks ever. There's always an image 145 00:07:15,388 --> 00:07:17,868 Speaker 1: of the game and what happened. And I don't think 146 00:07:17,868 --> 00:07:20,148 Speaker 1: it's Jackson. I don't think it's Trevor Lawrence. I think 147 00:07:20,188 --> 00:07:22,588 Speaker 1: the image of the game is Joey throwing his helmet. 148 00:07:22,828 --> 00:07:25,188 Speaker 1: This was the Charger's meltdown. This is them in a nutshell, 149 00:07:25,428 --> 00:07:28,068 Speaker 1: and it was It wasn't just like Massiens. He's like, no, 150 00:07:28,268 --> 00:07:30,788 Speaker 1: I don't give me help, I throw it. Understand, they 151 00:07:30,788 --> 00:07:33,108 Speaker 1: had just scored a touchdown. The Jaguars are going to 152 00:07:33,228 --> 00:07:35,668 Speaker 1: kick an extra point. They get them to the one 153 00:07:35,748 --> 00:07:38,268 Speaker 1: yard line. Peterson's like, Okay, if he's gonna throw his helmet, 154 00:07:38,268 --> 00:07:40,948 Speaker 1: we'll just go for two. They do. That's the winning points. 155 00:07:41,348 --> 00:07:43,588 Speaker 1: That's like there was like a walk off helmet throw 156 00:07:43,668 --> 00:07:46,668 Speaker 1: in ens like unbelievable meltdown, not his first one of 157 00:07:46,708 --> 00:07:48,708 Speaker 1: the game. And I'm like he's still talking and talking 158 00:07:48,748 --> 00:07:51,228 Speaker 1: like boasters should be embarrassed as a professional like that. 159 00:07:51,308 --> 00:07:53,868 Speaker 1: You can't do that. Actually, the fact that Peterson was like, 160 00:07:54,108 --> 00:07:55,828 Speaker 1: did you seriously? They got fine, let's just go. It 161 00:07:55,868 --> 00:07:58,148 Speaker 1: was an awesome move by Peterson, But like, that is 162 00:07:58,148 --> 00:07:59,908 Speaker 1: the image to me of that game. That is the 163 00:07:59,908 --> 00:08:01,748 Speaker 1: image of the meltdown. That is the comeback. It is 164 00:08:01,788 --> 00:08:03,548 Speaker 1: the helmet throws. Nothing to do with the Jaguars. I 165 00:08:03,588 --> 00:08:05,548 Speaker 1: love him, but that was the image. Sucks. You have 166 00:08:05,628 --> 00:08:09,628 Speaker 1: like the maturity spectrum. There you have Bosa behaving that way. 167 00:08:09,668 --> 00:08:11,188 Speaker 1: I was like writing the dock, like, can I get 168 00:08:11,188 --> 00:08:14,828 Speaker 1: someone's behavior feels very like maternal but it's true, like 169 00:08:14,868 --> 00:08:17,028 Speaker 1: he decided to act that way. And then on the 170 00:08:17,068 --> 00:08:18,668 Speaker 1: other end of the spectrum. I don't think you can 171 00:08:18,708 --> 00:08:22,468 Speaker 1: say enough great things about dog Doug Peterson. Colleen Wolfe 172 00:08:22,508 --> 00:08:24,348 Speaker 1: had this great tweet or she's like, god, his hair 173 00:08:24,428 --> 00:08:28,068 Speaker 1: looks majestic, Like everything was working for Doug Peterson yesterday. 174 00:08:28,268 --> 00:08:32,268 Speaker 1: He's played calling like an absolute mastermind behind that call sheet. 175 00:08:32,788 --> 00:08:35,508 Speaker 1: This man can do no wrong. I'm such a fan, 176 00:08:35,628 --> 00:08:38,268 Speaker 1: and guess what we get now. This man was the 177 00:08:38,308 --> 00:08:41,548 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator in Kansas City for two years between thirteen 178 00:08:41,668 --> 00:08:43,308 Speaker 1: fifteen and now he gets to go on and play 179 00:08:43,348 --> 00:08:46,868 Speaker 1: the Chiefs next next week. Oh my goodness. But the 180 00:08:46,988 --> 00:08:49,988 Speaker 1: decision making he had guts earlier this season to go 181 00:08:50,108 --> 00:08:53,188 Speaker 1: for two. It was actually a Staley Peterson special. It 182 00:08:53,268 --> 00:08:55,388 Speaker 1: was like mid regular season they both decided to go 183 00:08:55,548 --> 00:08:57,348 Speaker 1: to Then we see it again last night. Such a 184 00:08:57,388 --> 00:08:59,548 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson fan. Love it. It's a colonel. Also a 185 00:08:59,628 --> 00:09:02,988 Speaker 1: huge in rappaport fans, huge rock star status in the 186 00:09:03,028 --> 00:09:08,028 Speaker 1: studio texting. So I'm talking about Brandon Staley. What's up there? Huh? 187 00:09:08,068 --> 00:09:09,948 Speaker 1: This is an interesting one because Brandon Staleley has won 188 00:09:10,028 --> 00:09:12,268 Speaker 1: nine games, ten games, obviously, took his team to the 189 00:09:12,268 --> 00:09:15,108 Speaker 1: playoffs in the second year, should be in no trouble 190 00:09:15,148 --> 00:09:17,508 Speaker 1: at all. And yet all anyone wants to talk about 191 00:09:17,668 --> 00:09:21,148 Speaker 1: is Brandon Staley's job status. I think because it's been 192 00:09:21,188 --> 00:09:23,388 Speaker 1: not so much of an open secret, just basically an 193 00:09:23,388 --> 00:09:26,828 Speaker 1: open truth that Sean Payton would love to stay in LA. 194 00:09:26,948 --> 00:09:29,108 Speaker 1: Obviously they got a quarterback. It's clear that is a 195 00:09:29,188 --> 00:09:32,468 Speaker 1: job that would interest Sean Payton if it was available. 196 00:09:32,508 --> 00:09:35,308 Speaker 1: And then they go out and have that playoff collapse. 197 00:09:35,788 --> 00:09:37,948 Speaker 1: Football is crazy. We do not know what is going 198 00:09:37,948 --> 00:09:39,868 Speaker 1: to happen. I'll just say this to talk to people 199 00:09:40,508 --> 00:09:43,308 Speaker 1: very informed of the situation prior to the game. He 200 00:09:43,428 --> 00:09:45,628 Speaker 1: thought it was crazy to even mention his job status 201 00:09:45,708 --> 00:09:47,868 Speaker 1: at all, that he should be safe. He has earned 202 00:09:47,868 --> 00:09:50,548 Speaker 1: the right to come here for a third year. Listen 203 00:09:50,628 --> 00:09:53,788 Speaker 1: to the players justin Herbert clearly wants this man coach 204 00:09:53,828 --> 00:09:56,068 Speaker 1: and the team. Derwin James talks about how they built 205 00:09:56,108 --> 00:09:59,148 Speaker 1: something special. The players are clearly behind them. Well, this 206 00:09:59,228 --> 00:10:02,068 Speaker 1: is about now. It is about owners, right, This is 207 00:10:02,068 --> 00:10:04,868 Speaker 1: an owner decision. It's about owner. Dean Spanos saying, despite 208 00:10:04,868 --> 00:10:06,788 Speaker 1: what I saw on the field this past week, and 209 00:10:06,948 --> 00:10:09,868 Speaker 1: I want this guy leading my football program going forward. 210 00:10:10,268 --> 00:10:12,708 Speaker 1: It has been a day we have not heard anything 211 00:10:12,788 --> 00:10:15,948 Speaker 1: from the Chargers. Assuming Staley is back, I would think 212 00:10:15,988 --> 00:10:18,148 Speaker 1: we're not going to It would just be business as usual. 213 00:10:18,548 --> 00:10:21,508 Speaker 1: But at least it is a situation to monitor going 214 00:10:21,748 --> 00:10:24,468 Speaker 1: I would jump in here and your spot on. I 215 00:10:24,468 --> 00:10:27,108 Speaker 1: think that one day was huge at twenty four hours 216 00:10:27,108 --> 00:10:29,068 Speaker 1: of him surviving that and now we're onto the other game. 217 00:10:29,748 --> 00:10:31,748 Speaker 1: And I would add the Chargers would have to trade 218 00:10:31,748 --> 00:10:34,148 Speaker 1: for Sean Payton and pay him a lot of money 219 00:10:34,148 --> 00:10:36,068 Speaker 1: out of money. Are they willing to do that and 220 00:10:36,308 --> 00:10:38,468 Speaker 1: fire and pay out Brandon Staley. That's part of the 221 00:10:38,468 --> 00:10:40,148 Speaker 1: the economics of it all is too well. I think 222 00:10:40,148 --> 00:10:42,148 Speaker 1: so too. The quote, the infamous quote we were from 223 00:10:42,188 --> 00:10:43,948 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones last week, which is like, I have more 224 00:10:43,988 --> 00:10:46,108 Speaker 1: to judge Mike McCarthy on than just this one game. 225 00:10:46,148 --> 00:10:47,988 Speaker 1: I think we were all looking at Staley thinking he 226 00:10:48,148 --> 00:10:49,868 Speaker 1: was getting just judge on this one game. But maybe 227 00:10:49,868 --> 00:10:52,108 Speaker 1: they're looking at the body work as a whole for 228 00:10:52,228 --> 00:10:54,828 Speaker 1: Staley in LA. All Right, the Bills now set to 229 00:10:54,868 --> 00:10:57,508 Speaker 1: welcome the Bengals in the divisional round, a game that's 230 00:10:57,628 --> 00:11:00,868 Speaker 1: sure to bring up emotions considering the events over their 231 00:11:00,948 --> 00:11:04,548 Speaker 1: last meeting. However, all that aside, considering yesterday's gaming, it's 232 00:11:04,588 --> 00:11:07,588 Speaker 1: Miami concern. Are they concerned that as he just laid 233 00:11:07,588 --> 00:11:09,828 Speaker 1: it out, it was like kind of disastrous in the middle, 234 00:11:09,868 --> 00:11:11,588 Speaker 1: they had a lead, they let it go and then 235 00:11:11,628 --> 00:11:14,868 Speaker 1: to narrowly escape the dolphinse thirty four thirty one. What 236 00:11:14,948 --> 00:11:17,628 Speaker 1: I think the Bills mood is today. Listen, these guys 237 00:11:17,628 --> 00:11:20,188 Speaker 1: are so dialed in. We're not gonna get anything out 238 00:11:20,188 --> 00:11:22,268 Speaker 1: of them all week, and no one's gonna say, yeah, 239 00:11:22,308 --> 00:11:24,308 Speaker 1: you know, we played like crap. We're lucky to survive. 240 00:11:24,428 --> 00:11:26,988 Speaker 1: It's all this next game, one game at a time. 241 00:11:27,028 --> 00:11:28,988 Speaker 1: It's not how, it's not if. If you want to 242 00:11:28,988 --> 00:11:30,908 Speaker 1: look at any sort of silver lining, because it really 243 00:11:30,948 --> 00:11:33,108 Speaker 1: was sloppy, it was. Then they know that is that 244 00:11:33,148 --> 00:11:35,548 Speaker 1: they got the egg out and they played a really 245 00:11:35,588 --> 00:11:37,868 Speaker 1: sloppy game and they still won. I think the Bengals 246 00:11:37,868 --> 00:11:39,468 Speaker 1: did a lot of the same stuff. I think what 247 00:11:39,548 --> 00:11:41,508 Speaker 1: I'm happy about if you're a Bills fan is you 248 00:11:41,548 --> 00:11:45,508 Speaker 1: didn't have another cataclysmic injury. You didn't lose Jordan Poyer, 249 00:11:45,628 --> 00:11:49,428 Speaker 1: you didn't lose Dion Dawkins. Meanwhile, the Bengals lost JOHNA. Williams. 250 00:11:49,428 --> 00:11:51,068 Speaker 1: You don't know the extent of that injury, one of 251 00:11:51,068 --> 00:11:53,268 Speaker 1: their left tackles. And the Bills pass rush was really 252 00:11:53,308 --> 00:11:55,988 Speaker 1: good yesterday. So these two teams haven't lost in nine 253 00:11:56,028 --> 00:11:58,748 Speaker 1: games and eight games. They both played crappy games at 254 00:11:58,748 --> 00:12:01,668 Speaker 1: home against division rivals and barely surviving this backup quarterback. 255 00:12:01,708 --> 00:12:03,548 Speaker 1: It's a little bit of a dueling Spider Man thing here. 256 00:12:03,628 --> 00:12:06,148 Speaker 1: So should they be certain? No, They've They've won two 257 00:12:06,148 --> 00:12:08,188 Speaker 1: straight months. They played a terrible game that it got 258 00:12:08,268 --> 00:12:10,708 Speaker 1: another system. I can't imagine them playing that bad again 259 00:12:10,748 --> 00:12:13,908 Speaker 1: Cincinnati again. I just can't. Yeah, Haaron Dion Dawkins talking. 260 00:12:13,908 --> 00:12:15,708 Speaker 1: All I could think about from that game was when 261 00:12:15,708 --> 00:12:18,388 Speaker 1: the Christian Wilkins and Josh Allen stuff happened. He had 262 00:12:18,428 --> 00:12:21,348 Speaker 1: Wilkins helmet and it looked like he refused to give 263 00:12:21,388 --> 00:12:23,988 Speaker 1: it back, was just walking around with the helmet. But 264 00:12:24,388 --> 00:12:27,108 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, yes, it's Feast of Families, the gift or 265 00:12:27,108 --> 00:12:29,908 Speaker 1: the curse. But when you watched away, Miami played him. 266 00:12:29,948 --> 00:12:32,028 Speaker 1: I don't think the Buffalo Bills are going to see 267 00:12:32,068 --> 00:12:35,148 Speaker 1: another defense play them that way. Miami went into that 268 00:12:35,228 --> 00:12:38,748 Speaker 1: game third string quarterback, and they called the game defensively like, hey, 269 00:12:38,748 --> 00:12:40,708 Speaker 1: we have nothing to lose, and we're not just gonna 270 00:12:40,708 --> 00:12:43,428 Speaker 1: sit back and see what the Buffalo Bills they're gonna do. 271 00:12:43,748 --> 00:12:47,508 Speaker 1: They went after Josh Allen, Max Blitz, nobody back there, 272 00:12:47,508 --> 00:12:49,908 Speaker 1: just one on one coverage. And we saw earlier in 273 00:12:49,908 --> 00:12:52,508 Speaker 1: the game Josh Allen was handling it, getting the ball 274 00:12:52,548 --> 00:12:54,988 Speaker 1: out and they were making plays. We saw deep ones, 275 00:12:55,028 --> 00:12:58,428 Speaker 1: the digs, ones to Gabe Davis and guys were making plays. 276 00:12:58,548 --> 00:13:01,188 Speaker 1: But then there were other moments where Miami was able 277 00:13:01,228 --> 00:13:03,228 Speaker 1: to get there. Eric Road came free on the Blitz, 278 00:13:03,308 --> 00:13:06,148 Speaker 1: strips the ball out. So those types of games where 279 00:13:06,148 --> 00:13:09,188 Speaker 1: it's kind of back and forth. If forces Josh Allen 280 00:13:09,228 --> 00:13:12,388 Speaker 1: of Buffalo Bills, you have to make decisions right now 281 00:13:12,548 --> 00:13:15,428 Speaker 1: and make the correct one. When he did, they put 282 00:13:15,468 --> 00:13:17,628 Speaker 1: points up on the board rapidly, and they jumped out 283 00:13:17,628 --> 00:13:19,748 Speaker 1: to a big league When he didn't make those right 284 00:13:19,788 --> 00:13:23,828 Speaker 1: decisions and them split seconds, Miami made plays. But moving forward, 285 00:13:23,868 --> 00:13:26,628 Speaker 1: I don't see Kansas City lining up and just Max 286 00:13:26,708 --> 00:13:29,468 Speaker 1: Blitz and going after him every single player trying to 287 00:13:29,548 --> 00:13:32,348 Speaker 1: force the action and force something to happen. Miami knew 288 00:13:32,348 --> 00:13:34,108 Speaker 1: they were underman and they were gonna have to make 289 00:13:34,188 --> 00:13:36,948 Speaker 1: things happen on defense to stay in that game. So 290 00:13:37,028 --> 00:13:39,668 Speaker 1: for Buffalo, yes, it's a little concerning, But moving forward, 291 00:13:39,708 --> 00:13:41,868 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna see that from the other teams. Yeah, 292 00:13:41,908 --> 00:13:44,708 Speaker 1: you know, it's you have Skyler Thompson to Mike Giardi's play, 293 00:13:44,748 --> 00:13:46,988 Speaker 1: a seventh round pick, making his third career start down 294 00:13:47,028 --> 00:13:49,228 Speaker 1: seventeen nothing and he's able to rattle things off. But 295 00:13:49,268 --> 00:13:51,068 Speaker 1: it was also a centricals and punt return. It was 296 00:13:51,068 --> 00:13:53,788 Speaker 1: also the interceptions, Like the dolphinses are a lot of 297 00:13:53,788 --> 00:13:57,548 Speaker 1: credit for hanging in there. I would be more concerned 298 00:13:57,588 --> 00:14:00,028 Speaker 1: about the Bills performance, which was sloppy. We said at 299 00:14:00,028 --> 00:14:03,428 Speaker 1: four turnovers and all these different mistakes and Keim if 300 00:14:03,428 --> 00:14:07,188 Speaker 1: I didn't see the bang look sloppy and win by 301 00:14:07,188 --> 00:14:09,708 Speaker 1: the skin of their tea yesterday as well, like the 302 00:14:09,788 --> 00:14:13,148 Speaker 1: Bills were not their best version of the Bills yesterday. 303 00:14:13,228 --> 00:14:16,148 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, but when it mattered most the 304 00:14:16,308 --> 00:14:18,428 Speaker 1: Dolphins couldn't put them away and they hung around. And 305 00:14:18,468 --> 00:14:21,028 Speaker 1: in the NFL there is no RPI, there is no 306 00:14:21,068 --> 00:14:22,868 Speaker 1: strength of schedule. You can only do what you have 307 00:14:22,868 --> 00:14:25,908 Speaker 1: to do, and there's no margin of victory. There's no rankings. 308 00:14:25,908 --> 00:14:27,828 Speaker 1: It's you know, as much as I expect Dan Hansu 309 00:14:27,908 --> 00:14:30,068 Speaker 1: from the power rankings, the players that they don't care 310 00:14:30,068 --> 00:14:31,628 Speaker 1: about that. This morning, it's did we win or do 311 00:14:31,668 --> 00:14:36,068 Speaker 1: we lose? Bengals are their opponent and a lot of them. 312 00:14:36,148 --> 00:14:39,588 Speaker 1: If you played that game back nine hundred times, Bengals Ravens. 313 00:14:39,708 --> 00:14:41,548 Speaker 1: You know, the Bengals could win thirty eight to three 314 00:14:41,588 --> 00:14:44,028 Speaker 1: year but against Snoopontley and all these things, Ravens were 315 00:14:44,028 --> 00:14:46,628 Speaker 1: in that game till the very end. Also, it's the playoffs. 316 00:14:46,668 --> 00:14:50,428 Speaker 1: Am I concerned? No, They're relatively healthy. They've got their guys. 317 00:14:50,588 --> 00:14:52,308 Speaker 1: You know, at the exception of von Miller who they 318 00:14:52,348 --> 00:14:54,628 Speaker 1: lost and Micah Hide like there was no major injuries 319 00:14:54,708 --> 00:14:56,908 Speaker 1: their home, and I think this week is going to 320 00:14:56,988 --> 00:14:59,628 Speaker 1: be a different week. There's still look, the Hamlin thing 321 00:14:59,708 --> 00:15:01,628 Speaker 1: is still going to be an emotional part of this. 322 00:15:01,708 --> 00:15:04,828 Speaker 1: But the last two weeks have been just an emotional 323 00:15:04,908 --> 00:15:07,348 Speaker 1: roller coaster. Now you're two weeks removed, and who knows, 324 00:15:07,388 --> 00:15:09,428 Speaker 1: maybe hamlets in the building. We'll talk about that all week. 325 00:15:09,428 --> 00:15:12,548 Speaker 1: Also all this stuff, but like, we got to win. Now, 326 00:15:12,588 --> 00:15:14,668 Speaker 1: let's focus on Cincinnati. And if you're the Bengals, I 327 00:15:14,668 --> 00:15:17,508 Speaker 1: don't think you're feeling great after last night. Every team 328 00:15:17,828 --> 00:15:20,108 Speaker 1: right now has a rubber band, and their rubber band, 329 00:15:20,348 --> 00:15:23,268 Speaker 1: you know, is stretched to a certain degree. I'm just 330 00:15:23,268 --> 00:15:25,388 Speaker 1: a little bit concerned about the Bills bounce back on 331 00:15:25,508 --> 00:15:27,628 Speaker 1: their rubber band right now because it has just been 332 00:15:27,788 --> 00:15:30,788 Speaker 1: pulled and starting to tear a little bit. I'm not 333 00:15:30,788 --> 00:15:33,508 Speaker 1: talking about their physical ability to recover. I'm talking about 334 00:15:33,548 --> 00:15:36,508 Speaker 1: their emotional ability over the next six days to return 335 00:15:36,588 --> 00:15:38,908 Speaker 1: to form so then they can be stretched and once again, 336 00:15:38,948 --> 00:15:41,348 Speaker 1: because this is taxing what they're doing from a football 337 00:15:41,388 --> 00:15:43,468 Speaker 1: perspective is taxing what they're trying to do as a 338 00:15:43,468 --> 00:15:45,508 Speaker 1: team and circle the wagons that come together, and de 339 00:15:45,628 --> 00:15:49,188 Speaker 1: Mars in the building. He's okay, thank god, but my goodness. 340 00:15:49,228 --> 00:15:51,348 Speaker 1: We cannot speak enough about what this team has gone through. 341 00:15:51,428 --> 00:15:53,708 Speaker 1: But I'm getting I'm starting to get concerned about how 342 00:15:53,828 --> 00:15:56,188 Speaker 1: tight that rubber band is. Yeah, and listen, they do 343 00:15:56,228 --> 00:15:58,188 Speaker 1: a thing before the game that's their equivalent of raising 344 00:15:58,228 --> 00:15:59,868 Speaker 1: the twelve flag or beating the drum. And they have 345 00:15:59,988 --> 00:16:01,668 Speaker 1: one of their greats on the field and they take 346 00:16:01,668 --> 00:16:03,228 Speaker 1: the mic and they scream to the whole crowd, no 347 00:16:03,268 --> 00:16:05,508 Speaker 1: place you'd rather be. And it's Steve Tasker, it's Thurman. 348 00:16:05,748 --> 00:16:07,468 Speaker 1: It would not surprise him if it was to Mark 349 00:16:07,508 --> 00:16:09,588 Speaker 1: how Bag, and they'd be very cool, and the emotions 350 00:16:09,588 --> 00:16:11,508 Speaker 1: will be out of control. So I don't have a channel. 351 00:16:11,748 --> 00:16:13,668 Speaker 1: All right, we know the AFC side of things. Still 352 00:16:13,668 --> 00:16:15,868 Speaker 1: on Good Morning Football, we're gonna talk the NFC side 353 00:16:15,868 --> 00:16:17,828 Speaker 1: and what's gonna get said Brady and the Bucks host 354 00:16:17,868 --> 00:16:20,188 Speaker 1: Dak and the Cowboys. The cap off super A wild 355 00:16:20,268 --> 00:16:24,948 Speaker 1: Card weekend. Which team will be leaving Tampa Bay and 356 00:16:25,028 --> 00:16:27,948 Speaker 1: heading to San Francisco next week? In Kyle, we'll find 357 00:16:27,988 --> 00:16:30,348 Speaker 1: out I know who's heading for the show next. Nate Burleson, 358 00:16:30,508 --> 00:16:33,468 Speaker 1: there's some beautiful Coilbrex Swags Rolston. I want Nate's thoughts 359 00:16:33,548 --> 00:16:38,028 Speaker 1: on Lamar Jackson. I want Nate's thoughts on Cliff Kingsbury 360 00:16:38,188 --> 00:16:40,628 Speaker 1: and his trip to Thailand. We want nates thoughts on everything. 361 00:16:40,628 --> 00:16:56,228 Speaker 1: And he's joining us next from CBS Mornings. Good You 362 00:16:56,228 --> 00:16:58,908 Speaker 1: saw him yesterday on the CBS set. He said us today, 363 00:16:58,908 --> 00:17:00,788 Speaker 1: it wouldn't be a Monday on GMF with that little 364 00:17:00,868 --> 00:17:04,828 Speaker 1: Nate Burleson perspective. Nate, welcome to Good Morning Football. How 365 00:17:04,828 --> 00:17:07,788 Speaker 1: are you, my friend? I'm good. How are you guys doing? 366 00:17:07,868 --> 00:17:10,668 Speaker 1: Good to see you. A wild weekend? Super wild Card 367 00:17:10,708 --> 00:17:13,388 Speaker 1: weekend was exactly that. Hey, before we get started, though, 368 00:17:13,428 --> 00:17:15,388 Speaker 1: you know, we were talking about the slate of games, 369 00:17:15,548 --> 00:17:17,908 Speaker 1: and I made a statement about a guy in particular. 370 00:17:18,028 --> 00:17:19,508 Speaker 1: I don't want to say I told you so, but 371 00:17:19,788 --> 00:17:21,948 Speaker 1: I told you so. Check it out and I'll tell 372 00:17:21,988 --> 00:17:24,668 Speaker 1: you this, not only does he have it, he will 373 00:17:24,708 --> 00:17:26,788 Speaker 1: be one of the best quarterbacks in the postseason, mark 374 00:17:26,868 --> 00:17:33,508 Speaker 1: my words. Brock Purdie was doing his thing. Shrakes. Absolutely, 375 00:17:33,548 --> 00:17:36,188 Speaker 1: we've been celebrating Purdy. It feels like you were early 376 00:17:36,268 --> 00:17:38,388 Speaker 1: on this one. That was from a few weeks ago. Nate, 377 00:17:38,508 --> 00:17:40,788 Speaker 1: give us a little something Brock Purdy. Did you see 378 00:17:40,788 --> 00:17:42,828 Speaker 1: it coming the second he went in or has it 379 00:17:42,908 --> 00:17:44,908 Speaker 1: gotten better and better and now you're full in? Do 380 00:17:45,228 --> 00:17:55,228 Speaker 1: you smith what Barrock is since he got in there? See, 381 00:17:55,268 --> 00:17:57,868 Speaker 1: here's the thing. It's not just about this guy being 382 00:17:57,868 --> 00:18:01,268 Speaker 1: mister irrelevant or being the third string quarterback. It is 383 00:18:01,388 --> 00:18:04,308 Speaker 1: much more than him just throwing the ball to George 384 00:18:04,428 --> 00:18:08,548 Speaker 1: hid and now Deebo Samuel being available. It's the combination 385 00:18:08,828 --> 00:18:11,988 Speaker 1: of this offense. It's not too much of the offense 386 00:18:12,028 --> 00:18:14,388 Speaker 1: where he doesn't have control over it, but it's just 387 00:18:14,708 --> 00:18:16,908 Speaker 1: enough where he can run it like he's been running 388 00:18:16,908 --> 00:18:19,588 Speaker 1: offenses in the past, whether it's college or high school. 389 00:18:19,628 --> 00:18:22,108 Speaker 1: You can see the comfort in the pocket, the composure. 390 00:18:22,348 --> 00:18:24,428 Speaker 1: The best row of the weekend was actually and then 391 00:18:24,468 --> 00:18:26,388 Speaker 1: complete the Brandon I I know we all saw it. 392 00:18:26,468 --> 00:18:28,708 Speaker 1: He went left, he went right, made a guy missing 393 00:18:28,748 --> 00:18:32,468 Speaker 1: in through an absolute dot to the pieline and was dropped. 394 00:18:32,548 --> 00:18:34,188 Speaker 1: That would have been one of the best throws in 395 00:18:34,228 --> 00:18:37,588 Speaker 1: playoff history. I just feel like right now we're discrediting 396 00:18:37,628 --> 00:18:41,028 Speaker 1: what Brock is actually doing because this defense is so good. 397 00:18:41,188 --> 00:18:44,948 Speaker 1: And don't get me wrong, the defense is phenomenal, but 398 00:18:44,988 --> 00:18:47,748 Speaker 1: that is a compliment to this offense that is taking 399 00:18:47,788 --> 00:18:49,908 Speaker 1: shape right in front of our eyes, and with Deebo 400 00:18:50,028 --> 00:18:52,868 Speaker 1: back de Bo back, I'm telling you Brock could make 401 00:18:52,868 --> 00:18:55,948 Speaker 1: a magical run where we are not having a conversation 402 00:18:56,028 --> 00:18:59,268 Speaker 1: about Trey Lance next year. It will be Trey Lance 403 00:18:59,388 --> 00:19:02,468 Speaker 1: is playing back up to Brock next season. Oh my 404 00:19:02,628 --> 00:19:05,588 Speaker 1: gonell that's another or I told you when I told 405 00:19:05,628 --> 00:19:08,228 Speaker 1: you the thing to mark down from Aprilison. So, Nathan, 406 00:19:08,388 --> 00:19:11,668 Speaker 1: that game ends on Saturday afternoon, Jags Chargers start. And 407 00:19:11,668 --> 00:19:14,028 Speaker 1: then if you were anybody and you turned your TV 408 00:19:14,108 --> 00:19:15,748 Speaker 1: off and it was twenty seven seven at a half time, 409 00:19:15,788 --> 00:19:17,748 Speaker 1: you were a damn fool because that game turned into 410 00:19:17,748 --> 00:19:21,108 Speaker 1: an unbelievable spot to watch. In the second half, the 411 00:19:21,188 --> 00:19:23,548 Speaker 1: Jaguars pull off a comeback win over the Chargers. Would 412 00:19:23,548 --> 00:19:25,588 Speaker 1: you make of that game? Unreal? I mean, listen, I 413 00:19:26,028 --> 00:19:28,308 Speaker 1: wanted to walk away. But I'm watching every game, and 414 00:19:28,348 --> 00:19:31,948 Speaker 1: I'm sitting here seeing Trevor Lawrence struggle and getting all 415 00:19:31,988 --> 00:19:34,708 Speaker 1: of these messages, and then I'm checking Twitter and people 416 00:19:34,708 --> 00:19:36,868 Speaker 1: are like, oh my god, the lights are too bright 417 00:19:36,948 --> 00:19:39,788 Speaker 1: for Trevor Lawrence and the Jags. But then they settled down, 418 00:19:39,828 --> 00:19:42,148 Speaker 1: of course, four picks, four tds, my man hit us 419 00:19:42,148 --> 00:19:44,428 Speaker 1: with the fourth for four like a Wendy's combo mill 420 00:19:44,628 --> 00:19:46,628 Speaker 1: and it was frosty for a second. But then he 421 00:19:46,708 --> 00:19:49,188 Speaker 1: came out on that second half and those guys were 422 00:19:49,268 --> 00:19:51,708 Speaker 1: doing exactly what they thought they'd do in the postseason. 423 00:19:51,868 --> 00:19:53,948 Speaker 1: You know what I love about this Jash squad is 424 00:19:53,948 --> 00:19:55,708 Speaker 1: that in order to change the culture, you had to 425 00:19:55,788 --> 00:19:57,668 Speaker 1: change some faces. And what did they do. They brought 426 00:19:57,668 --> 00:19:59,868 Speaker 1: in guys that helped change that culture over there. You 427 00:19:59,948 --> 00:20:03,708 Speaker 1: bring in guys like Marvin Jones, Travis CTN, Christian Kirk 428 00:20:03,708 --> 00:20:06,588 Speaker 1: who they paid big money too. Now by Evan Ingram, 429 00:20:06,668 --> 00:20:09,228 Speaker 1: who for here was the butt of jokes. Oh he's big, 430 00:20:09,268 --> 00:20:11,468 Speaker 1: fast and strong, little bit of a bus. He makes 431 00:20:11,468 --> 00:20:13,588 Speaker 1: a big catch and then drops another one. This dude 432 00:20:13,628 --> 00:20:15,988 Speaker 1: has been playing well for this offense as of lately. 433 00:20:16,108 --> 00:20:18,788 Speaker 1: So they have these individuals that they brought in. They 434 00:20:18,868 --> 00:20:21,308 Speaker 1: spent some money, I believe, the most money when it 435 00:20:21,388 --> 00:20:23,988 Speaker 1: came to acquiring players, and it's paying off for him 436 00:20:23,988 --> 00:20:27,188 Speaker 1: in a big way. Frosty for a minute. I like that, Nate. 437 00:20:27,268 --> 00:20:29,788 Speaker 1: Things are a little frosty right now in Baltimore as 438 00:20:29,828 --> 00:20:32,268 Speaker 1: this season came to an end last night and they 439 00:20:32,308 --> 00:20:35,028 Speaker 1: were playing without Lamar Jackson who hasn't been on the 440 00:20:35,068 --> 00:20:38,868 Speaker 1: field for over a month, Nate contract situation all season? Now, 441 00:20:38,948 --> 00:20:41,828 Speaker 1: how do you think all of this unfolds? This is tough, man, 442 00:20:41,868 --> 00:20:44,468 Speaker 1: because if I'm a Baltimore Raven, I couldn't help but 443 00:20:44,628 --> 00:20:47,028 Speaker 1: to think if Lamar Jackson was on the field, maybe 444 00:20:47,028 --> 00:20:50,388 Speaker 1: at ninety ninety five percent, we hold the Cincinnati Bengals 445 00:20:50,428 --> 00:20:53,108 Speaker 1: to what was the seventeen points before Hubbard brought that 446 00:20:53,268 --> 00:20:55,388 Speaker 1: fumble back, you know we would have a chance to 447 00:20:55,388 --> 00:20:58,268 Speaker 1: win with Lamar quarterback. Now on the flip side, being 448 00:20:58,268 --> 00:21:01,308 Speaker 1: a guy who has sprained his PCL, which means of 449 00:21:01,348 --> 00:21:04,028 Speaker 1: torn PCO, it's hard to move them. It's not like 450 00:21:04,668 --> 00:21:07,388 Speaker 1: spray the MCL and I could still do a little 451 00:21:07,388 --> 00:21:09,548 Speaker 1: bit of this and that No, no no PCO. Your leg 452 00:21:09,588 --> 00:21:11,748 Speaker 1: will catch that will get valued on you. So he 453 00:21:11,828 --> 00:21:14,348 Speaker 1: had to heal up when he set out these last 454 00:21:14,388 --> 00:21:16,668 Speaker 1: few weeks. But I just don't I don't think there 455 00:21:16,788 --> 00:21:19,228 Speaker 1: is a conclusion that we're going to love when it 456 00:21:19,228 --> 00:21:22,988 Speaker 1: comes to this contract negotiation, because if they wanted to 457 00:21:23,068 --> 00:21:25,548 Speaker 1: get it done on both sides, whether it's the Baltimore 458 00:21:25,628 --> 00:21:28,388 Speaker 1: Raven saying this is what you're worth or Lamar Jackson saying, 459 00:21:28,388 --> 00:21:31,108 Speaker 1: I appreciate this contract. I'll take this amount of money. 460 00:21:31,428 --> 00:21:33,588 Speaker 1: They would have agreed on this a long time ago. 461 00:21:33,748 --> 00:21:35,588 Speaker 1: I don't know how this ends up. Does Lamar end 462 00:21:35,668 --> 00:21:37,508 Speaker 1: up in a different jersey playing for a different team. 463 00:21:37,788 --> 00:21:41,548 Speaker 1: That is quite possible. And let's not forget I mean Huntley. 464 00:21:41,828 --> 00:21:44,068 Speaker 1: He didn't play the greatest game, but he also played 465 00:21:44,068 --> 00:21:45,628 Speaker 1: well enough to where his team was in it in 466 00:21:45,668 --> 00:21:47,828 Speaker 1: the final moments to win this game. So if they 467 00:21:47,908 --> 00:21:50,228 Speaker 1: move on, will they be okay? Yeah, of course with 468 00:21:50,348 --> 00:21:52,988 Speaker 1: a courtside with a coach liked hardball, definitely. I just 469 00:21:52,988 --> 00:21:55,468 Speaker 1: feel like this isn't going to end, will you know? 470 00:21:55,508 --> 00:21:58,228 Speaker 1: We thought that Lamar would be around for life when 471 00:21:58,268 --> 00:22:00,108 Speaker 1: it came to being a raven. That might not be 472 00:22:00,148 --> 00:22:02,788 Speaker 1: the case. And they it's spot on. It's good analysis, 473 00:22:03,108 --> 00:22:04,788 Speaker 1: a lot to chew on, a lot of former players 474 00:22:04,788 --> 00:22:07,428 Speaker 1: weighing in this weekend. Good to hear your perspective on it. Nate. 475 00:22:07,428 --> 00:22:09,308 Speaker 1: We'll see you later in the week. Great job yesterday 476 00:22:09,348 --> 00:22:10,988 Speaker 1: as always, and thank you for joining the show today. 477 00:22:11,348 --> 00:22:13,268 Speaker 1: I appreciate your brother. You guys have a good week. 478 00:22:13,268 --> 00:22:17,268 Speaker 1: To see you Friday, you too, Thanks, Nate. It's interesting 479 00:22:17,308 --> 00:22:19,428 Speaker 1: because there is the money side of it, the football 480 00:22:19,468 --> 00:22:20,868 Speaker 1: side of that, guys. I go to the turn of 481 00:22:20,868 --> 00:22:22,748 Speaker 1: the table, so we can make it more of a 482 00:22:22,868 --> 00:22:25,068 Speaker 1: round table, if you will. Where do the Ravens and 483 00:22:25,188 --> 00:22:27,428 Speaker 1: Lamar go from here? You're gonna hear a lot of 484 00:22:27,428 --> 00:22:29,308 Speaker 1: things also in the next few days, in the next 485 00:22:29,308 --> 00:22:32,028 Speaker 1: few weeks, and a lot of that stuff is gonna 486 00:22:32,108 --> 00:22:34,988 Speaker 1: be you know, He'll start hearing negative stuff about Lamar. 487 00:22:35,188 --> 00:22:37,428 Speaker 1: You'll start hearing negative things about the negotiations. And you 488 00:22:37,428 --> 00:22:38,868 Speaker 1: just got to be able to stay in tunnel vision 489 00:22:38,868 --> 00:22:41,188 Speaker 1: here and remember the good Famara Jackson. But I'm wondering 490 00:22:41,228 --> 00:22:44,668 Speaker 1: if this last month, with all the conversations and speculation 491 00:22:44,708 --> 00:22:47,348 Speaker 1: and the tweet on Thursday where he revealed all of 492 00:22:47,428 --> 00:22:49,748 Speaker 1: his his injury stuff out there and was kind of 493 00:22:49,748 --> 00:22:52,628 Speaker 1: defending himself saying here's the and that obviously was not, 494 00:22:53,268 --> 00:22:56,108 Speaker 1: you know, looked upon warmly in the Ravens organization. Let 495 00:22:56,148 --> 00:22:58,348 Speaker 1: us handle the injury talk, you don't, you know, it's 496 00:22:58,388 --> 00:23:00,108 Speaker 1: a playoff week for us. We'll do all that. Is 497 00:23:00,108 --> 00:23:03,148 Speaker 1: it too far gone now? Like I wonder if both sides, 498 00:23:03,148 --> 00:23:04,788 Speaker 1: like if Lamar is like, you know what we have, 499 00:23:05,388 --> 00:23:06,828 Speaker 1: I'm not I don't want to be here, and if 500 00:23:06,868 --> 00:23:09,068 Speaker 1: the Ravens are saying, what maybe it's best for we 501 00:23:09,148 --> 00:23:11,068 Speaker 1: move on the problem into what Ian's saying. They've built 502 00:23:11,068 --> 00:23:14,628 Speaker 1: this entire roster around Lamar Jackson, around Lamar Jackson style. 503 00:23:14,708 --> 00:23:16,788 Speaker 1: No other team has three tight ends on the active 504 00:23:16,828 --> 00:23:19,668 Speaker 1: roster every week. No other team uses Patrick Ricard like that. 505 00:23:19,868 --> 00:23:21,628 Speaker 1: You do that, and you don't spend all the money 506 00:23:21,668 --> 00:23:24,988 Speaker 1: on wide receivers because the offense is built around Laura Lamar. 507 00:23:25,068 --> 00:23:27,348 Speaker 1: So I'm looking at Lamar, I'm looking at Greg Roman, 508 00:23:27,388 --> 00:23:29,188 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Horriball and what he says publicly over 509 00:23:29,188 --> 00:23:32,108 Speaker 1: the next few days. And to me, this is bigger 510 00:23:32,108 --> 00:23:33,988 Speaker 1: than just did a Lamar play? Did he not play? 511 00:23:33,988 --> 00:23:35,388 Speaker 1: Did he travel with the team? Did he not travel 512 00:23:35,388 --> 00:23:38,548 Speaker 1: around team? The entire team has invested in every other 513 00:23:38,588 --> 00:23:40,828 Speaker 1: place on the expectation they were going to have to 514 00:23:40,988 --> 00:23:43,388 Speaker 1: pay Lamar this money. Now you've got two hundred fifty 515 00:23:43,428 --> 00:23:45,148 Speaker 1: million dollars or two undred million dollars in your pocket, 516 00:23:45,188 --> 00:23:47,628 Speaker 1: and you're like, do we want to spend the money 517 00:23:47,628 --> 00:23:49,868 Speaker 1: on Lamar? I find it really interesting because all season 518 00:23:49,908 --> 00:23:51,268 Speaker 1: long it was like, of course he'll be a Raven. 519 00:23:51,268 --> 00:23:53,228 Speaker 1: It's just how it gets worked out. I think it's 520 00:23:53,228 --> 00:23:55,948 Speaker 1: in doubt right now. Yeah, you talk about the last month, 521 00:23:55,988 --> 00:23:57,468 Speaker 1: and I think that does play a major part. And 522 00:23:57,508 --> 00:23:59,988 Speaker 1: you talked about him not being at the game last night, 523 00:23:59,988 --> 00:24:02,388 Speaker 1: which was very odd to me because they finished up 524 00:24:02,428 --> 00:24:05,628 Speaker 1: the season in Cincinnati or old game, because what Ian 525 00:24:05,748 --> 00:24:08,908 Speaker 1: was saying earlier, every role game, guys don't always travel, 526 00:24:09,228 --> 00:24:11,748 Speaker 1: but he was traveling in the goggles on the field, 527 00:24:11,748 --> 00:24:14,388 Speaker 1: talked about how he was helping the quarterbacks on the 528 00:24:14,428 --> 00:24:16,828 Speaker 1: sideline with him being there at the game, and then 529 00:24:16,868 --> 00:24:19,148 Speaker 1: he doesn't go to the game last night. Very weird. 530 00:24:19,268 --> 00:24:21,228 Speaker 1: But to go back to the past month, hearing so 531 00:24:21,268 --> 00:24:23,988 Speaker 1: many guys talk about should Lamar be playing, and Michael 532 00:24:24,068 --> 00:24:26,988 Speaker 1: Vick onund Saturday or Sunday said, hey, put a brace 533 00:24:27,028 --> 00:24:28,748 Speaker 1: on it and just go. And I'm sitting and I'm 534 00:24:28,788 --> 00:24:31,508 Speaker 1: just like, really put a brace on it and just go. 535 00:24:31,788 --> 00:24:34,588 Speaker 1: In ton of respect for Michael Vick, but absolutely not, 536 00:24:34,668 --> 00:24:36,908 Speaker 1: don't just put a brace on it. Robert Griffin at 537 00:24:36,908 --> 00:24:39,308 Speaker 1: third RG three came out and said he did that 538 00:24:39,428 --> 00:24:42,308 Speaker 1: and his career took the wrong side going And I 539 00:24:42,348 --> 00:24:45,148 Speaker 1: saw Shady McCoy was just like, you were never that good, 540 00:24:45,148 --> 00:24:48,668 Speaker 1: which was totally false. RG three was Rookie of the Year. 541 00:24:48,868 --> 00:24:50,828 Speaker 1: That wasn't also chiing that. It said, Okay, so you're 542 00:24:50,868 --> 00:24:53,828 Speaker 1: comparing RG three to Lamar. Yes, I'm not comparing him 543 00:24:53,828 --> 00:24:56,108 Speaker 1: to m but it's just to the same effect. His 544 00:24:56,268 --> 00:24:59,308 Speaker 1: rookie year, he wins that award over Andrew Luck and 545 00:24:59,468 --> 00:25:02,308 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. He was incredible his rookie year and he 546 00:25:02,348 --> 00:25:04,308 Speaker 1: had a sprain in his knee. He goes out there, 547 00:25:04,548 --> 00:25:06,948 Speaker 1: he plays, he finishes the season, he ends up with 548 00:25:06,988 --> 00:25:09,188 Speaker 1: a torn acl and he had injuries throughout the rest 549 00:25:09,188 --> 00:25:11,748 Speaker 1: of his career. So the focus is not RG three. 550 00:25:11,828 --> 00:25:14,468 Speaker 1: The focus is Lamar Jackson and if you're injured. And 551 00:25:14,508 --> 00:25:17,388 Speaker 1: I appreciate Marlon Humphrey coming out and saying, hey, we're 552 00:25:17,428 --> 00:25:20,188 Speaker 1: seeing him in a facility. He's not moving around well 553 00:25:20,348 --> 00:25:23,388 Speaker 1: because we saw Sammy Watkins come out and say like, oh, 554 00:25:23,428 --> 00:25:25,428 Speaker 1: I just want him to go out there. It's just like, buddy, 555 00:25:25,468 --> 00:25:28,068 Speaker 1: you just got here, Like slow down. You worry about 556 00:25:28,148 --> 00:25:30,868 Speaker 1: going out there and performing, and let Lamar worry about 557 00:25:30,948 --> 00:25:33,148 Speaker 1: his injury and the things that he has gone. I 558 00:25:33,228 --> 00:25:35,428 Speaker 1: ask you, it's in a generational thing. A lot of 559 00:25:35,468 --> 00:25:37,588 Speaker 1: the players from the generation of book for you, and 560 00:25:37,628 --> 00:25:39,148 Speaker 1: it's the Vix and the Woods and a lot of 561 00:25:39,148 --> 00:25:41,868 Speaker 1: them and Shady McCoy. They're all coming out and saying 562 00:25:42,188 --> 00:25:44,108 Speaker 1: I played hurt, like I went for it. I was there. 563 00:25:44,428 --> 00:25:47,108 Speaker 1: You're a very staunch believer of the other side of it, 564 00:25:47,108 --> 00:25:48,628 Speaker 1: where it's like, no, dude, take care of your knee, 565 00:25:48,628 --> 00:25:51,148 Speaker 1: and but we you And I'm not saying I was 566 00:25:51,188 --> 00:25:53,348 Speaker 1: a guy and I played through some things, but be you. 567 00:25:53,588 --> 00:25:56,348 Speaker 1: I don't feel like as a former player, I can say, oh, well, 568 00:25:56,508 --> 00:25:58,868 Speaker 1: I had a sprain, this injury, and I went out 569 00:25:58,908 --> 00:26:01,548 Speaker 1: there and I did it. Good for you, Congratulations, you 570 00:26:01,588 --> 00:26:03,788 Speaker 1: did it. You went out there, you perform. If he 571 00:26:03,948 --> 00:26:06,108 Speaker 1: does not want to do that, he may be looking 572 00:26:06,108 --> 00:26:07,788 Speaker 1: at the line like, hey, when I'm fifty years old, 573 00:26:07,828 --> 00:26:10,228 Speaker 1: I want to be able to walk around. That's okay, 574 00:26:10,308 --> 00:26:12,868 Speaker 1: Like that same behavior, just because you may have a 575 00:26:12,868 --> 00:26:15,508 Speaker 1: gladiator behavior and mindset and you want to go out 576 00:26:15,548 --> 00:26:17,548 Speaker 1: there and play like that's great. I'm all for it. 577 00:26:17,708 --> 00:26:19,548 Speaker 1: I played in some games where I went home and 578 00:26:19,628 --> 00:26:21,268 Speaker 1: my wife wanted to slap me. It was just like, 579 00:26:21,268 --> 00:26:23,948 Speaker 1: what are you doing? But every guy doesn't have to 580 00:26:23,988 --> 00:26:26,108 Speaker 1: do that, and we shouldn't sit here at these desks 581 00:26:26,188 --> 00:26:29,108 Speaker 1: now with this platform as former players and look down 582 00:26:29,148 --> 00:26:31,068 Speaker 1: on guys because now a fan sitting at home like 583 00:26:31,188 --> 00:26:32,948 Speaker 1: he's right, he should put a brace on it. And 584 00:26:32,988 --> 00:26:34,668 Speaker 1: that same fan has a head cold and they're not 585 00:26:34,708 --> 00:26:37,108 Speaker 1: going in to work on Tuesday. So it's like, slow down. 586 00:26:37,228 --> 00:26:39,748 Speaker 1: Let Lamar dictate what's best for his own reason. Do 587 00:26:39,788 --> 00:26:41,628 Speaker 1: you think that if Lamar right now was under a 588 00:26:41,668 --> 00:26:43,828 Speaker 1: long term deal, a two hundred and thirty million dollars deal, 589 00:26:43,828 --> 00:26:45,148 Speaker 1: you think he would have played against the Bengals Just 590 00:26:45,188 --> 00:26:46,948 Speaker 1: say what do you think? Hey, Baltimore, get it done 591 00:26:46,988 --> 00:26:48,828 Speaker 1: and now we can find out. We don't know. Would 592 00:26:48,948 --> 00:26:52,468 Speaker 1: Nate say on Friday, sacrifice and security? He doesn't have 593 00:26:52,508 --> 00:26:54,828 Speaker 1: the security, Hey may not. I'll be willing to sacrifice, 594 00:26:54,868 --> 00:26:56,988 Speaker 1: but we don't know that. I think we've officially entered 595 00:26:57,028 --> 00:27:02,268 Speaker 1: Saga territory with It's good though, but there's still one 596 00:27:02,308 --> 00:27:04,268 Speaker 1: more game to go. I'm super wild, part of me again. 597 00:27:04,508 --> 00:27:06,668 Speaker 1: Cowboys Bucks. We're in our heads to San Francisco. We're 598 00:27:06,708 --> 00:27:09,588 Speaker 1: gonna get the latest from Tampa Bay. Both Sarah Walsh 599 00:27:09,628 --> 00:27:12,828 Speaker 1: and Jane Slater are staying warm. Honestly, I am worried 600 00:27:12,828 --> 00:27:17,268 Speaker 1: about Sarah Walsh. She's kind of chilly and two heated bests. 601 00:27:17,308 --> 00:27:19,348 Speaker 1: That girl was you're the one that said it was 602 00:27:19,428 --> 00:27:37,948 Speaker 1: cold and Drapsonville. Back on Good Morning Football. Here's how 603 00:27:38,028 --> 00:27:41,148 Speaker 1: the divisional round in the NFC is playing out. All right, 604 00:27:41,148 --> 00:27:45,388 Speaker 1: we already know Giants Eagles. It's fantastic. That's a Saturday 605 00:27:45,428 --> 00:27:48,668 Speaker 1: evening special, Saturday Night Live, if you will. But now 606 00:27:48,668 --> 00:27:51,668 Speaker 1: we still don't know who's going to San Francisco. We 607 00:27:51,748 --> 00:27:53,668 Speaker 1: will have to wait for the game tonight between the 608 00:27:53,668 --> 00:27:57,588 Speaker 1: Cowboys and the Buccaneers to find that out. With more 609 00:27:57,708 --> 00:28:00,668 Speaker 1: on that, let's welcome in. Look at this, look at 610 00:28:00,668 --> 00:28:04,308 Speaker 1: this team at Raymond James Stadium. Sarah Walsh and Jane 611 00:28:04,548 --> 00:28:07,228 Speaker 1: later joining us. Now, Sarah, Jane, what do you what 612 00:28:07,348 --> 00:28:08,828 Speaker 1: do you have in store for us right now? I 613 00:28:08,868 --> 00:28:10,268 Speaker 1: don't care about the game. What do you two have 614 00:28:10,268 --> 00:28:13,188 Speaker 1: in store for us in this conversation? WHOA? Well, we 615 00:28:13,188 --> 00:28:14,948 Speaker 1: were prepared to talk about the game, but if you'd 616 00:28:14,948 --> 00:28:18,348 Speaker 1: like to talk about, you know, the weather down in Tampa, 617 00:28:18,428 --> 00:28:20,428 Speaker 1: our social activity and we can go there if you 618 00:28:20,468 --> 00:28:22,388 Speaker 1: would like, Jamie. But I mean, we thought that maybe 619 00:28:22,388 --> 00:28:24,628 Speaker 1: you wanted to talk about that little football game that's 620 00:28:24,788 --> 00:28:27,268 Speaker 1: being played here tonight, because the reality is is someone 621 00:28:27,348 --> 00:28:30,508 Speaker 1: season is going to end really where it started. These 622 00:28:30,508 --> 00:28:32,908 Speaker 1: two teams met in Week one, and if the Buccaneers 623 00:28:32,948 --> 00:28:35,308 Speaker 1: were able to dial up and just have a redo 624 00:28:35,308 --> 00:28:36,908 Speaker 1: of what they did in Week one, they would love 625 00:28:36,948 --> 00:28:39,188 Speaker 1: to take it because that was the buccaneers most dominant 626 00:28:39,228 --> 00:28:40,868 Speaker 1: win of this season. And I'll be honest, when I 627 00:28:40,868 --> 00:28:43,188 Speaker 1: watched that game that was played in Dallas Week one, 628 00:28:43,228 --> 00:28:44,708 Speaker 1: I thought, oh my god, this team might run it 629 00:28:44,748 --> 00:28:46,868 Speaker 1: back to the super Bowl and everything is working out 630 00:28:46,908 --> 00:28:48,748 Speaker 1: for them. And we have not seen a Buccaneers team 631 00:28:48,748 --> 00:28:50,668 Speaker 1: look like that since then. That was a game that 632 00:28:50,668 --> 00:28:53,228 Speaker 1: they were really balanced for them. Leonard Fournette rushed for 633 00:28:53,268 --> 00:28:55,828 Speaker 1: a season high one hundred and twenty seven yards, and 634 00:28:55,868 --> 00:28:57,828 Speaker 1: it's crazy to think he hasn't rushed for over one 635 00:28:57,868 --> 00:29:00,908 Speaker 1: hundred yards since then. Tom Brady alluded to it this week. 636 00:29:01,148 --> 00:29:02,668 Speaker 1: Teams that are doing well at this time of the 637 00:29:02,748 --> 00:29:04,668 Speaker 1: year are running the football and we have to find 638 00:29:04,708 --> 00:29:06,068 Speaker 1: a way to do that. They have not done it 639 00:29:06,148 --> 00:29:08,588 Speaker 1: all year after that Week one game. In fact, they 640 00:29:08,708 --> 00:29:11,228 Speaker 1: rank last in the league in that category. They're averaging 641 00:29:11,308 --> 00:29:13,708 Speaker 1: under seventy seven rushing yards a game. So they would 642 00:29:13,748 --> 00:29:16,468 Speaker 1: love to find some kind of formula to get back 643 00:29:16,548 --> 00:29:19,348 Speaker 1: to that, or if they could just dial up playoff Lenny, 644 00:29:19,468 --> 00:29:22,148 Speaker 1: because he's been known to show up in the postseason. 645 00:29:22,228 --> 00:29:25,628 Speaker 1: He's got six playoff touchdowns in five games for them. 646 00:29:25,708 --> 00:29:27,748 Speaker 1: They would love to do that. But I have a feeling, Jane, 647 00:29:27,748 --> 00:29:30,068 Speaker 1: this could end up with Tom slinging at fifty times tonight, 648 00:29:30,148 --> 00:29:32,108 Speaker 1: and he should when you consider sort of the challenge 649 00:29:32,148 --> 00:29:34,828 Speaker 1: they've got opposite Treyvon Diggs. We've been talking about this. 650 00:29:34,828 --> 00:29:36,108 Speaker 1: This has been an area that a lot of teams 651 00:29:36,108 --> 00:29:38,188 Speaker 1: are targeting because they lost two of their starting corners 652 00:29:38,188 --> 00:29:40,708 Speaker 1: this year, guys, so they feel good, though, Jamie, you're 653 00:29:40,708 --> 00:29:43,388 Speaker 1: going to know this player, Xavier Rhodes came to Dallas 654 00:29:43,428 --> 00:29:45,548 Speaker 1: newly acquired. He's gotten a handle in the playbook. He 655 00:29:45,588 --> 00:29:47,588 Speaker 1: said if he was in Dallas, he wouldn't be there 656 00:29:47,628 --> 00:29:49,068 Speaker 1: if he wasn't ready to go. So I think we're 657 00:29:49,068 --> 00:29:51,628 Speaker 1: going to see a healthy rotation of him opposite Treyvon Diggs. 658 00:29:51,668 --> 00:29:53,628 Speaker 1: But it's really the play of Dak Prescott that's been 659 00:29:53,668 --> 00:29:55,748 Speaker 1: picked apart in recent weeks, going back to that Week 660 00:29:55,828 --> 00:29:57,908 Speaker 1: one game that you alluded and that one he wasn't great. 661 00:29:57,988 --> 00:30:00,468 Speaker 1: Fourteen of twenty nine, he threw a pick, never found 662 00:30:00,468 --> 00:30:02,188 Speaker 1: the end zone. The only points coming off the leg 663 00:30:02,228 --> 00:30:04,948 Speaker 1: of Brett Maher and then that regular season finale Washington 664 00:30:05,268 --> 00:30:08,548 Speaker 1: didn't do him any favors, finishing the season with fifteen 665 00:30:08,628 --> 00:30:11,948 Speaker 1: interceptions that is league leading. Now, talking with Zekie Elliott 666 00:30:11,988 --> 00:30:14,068 Speaker 1: this week, he said he liked the fresh eyes of 667 00:30:14,108 --> 00:30:17,028 Speaker 1: the guys. The guys use this week as a bit 668 00:30:17,068 --> 00:30:19,748 Speaker 1: of an opportunity to reset. And I know the Bucks 669 00:30:19,788 --> 00:30:21,388 Speaker 1: have been dealing with a lot of issues along their 670 00:30:21,428 --> 00:30:23,988 Speaker 1: offensive line. Cowboys deal with that in recent weeks. Remember 671 00:30:23,988 --> 00:30:25,868 Speaker 1: they lost their starting center. They had to move three 672 00:30:25,948 --> 00:30:28,068 Speaker 1: different guys to sort of fix that for them, and 673 00:30:28,068 --> 00:30:29,548 Speaker 1: I think we're seeing a lot of the collapsing in 674 00:30:29,588 --> 00:30:32,428 Speaker 1: the pocket and maybe Doc not trusting his protection. Good 675 00:30:32,428 --> 00:30:35,268 Speaker 1: news they've got their starting center, Tyler Beyondest there at center. 676 00:30:35,308 --> 00:30:37,428 Speaker 1: Said that should help fortify things for them. Yes, center 677 00:30:37,508 --> 00:30:39,588 Speaker 1: is a big question mark tonight for the Buccanteers. Guys. 678 00:30:39,588 --> 00:30:41,508 Speaker 1: We don't really know who's going to be under center 679 00:30:41,548 --> 00:30:43,708 Speaker 1: for Tom Brady. Could be Robert Hansey who's filled in 680 00:30:43,748 --> 00:30:46,308 Speaker 1: all year he's battling a sore hamstring, or their Pro 681 00:30:46,348 --> 00:30:49,228 Speaker 1: Bowl or Ryan Jensen, he is still on injured reserve. 682 00:30:49,268 --> 00:30:51,628 Speaker 1: They have until four o'clock today to activate him. He 683 00:30:51,628 --> 00:30:53,348 Speaker 1: went down on day to a trading camp, but he 684 00:30:53,388 --> 00:30:55,948 Speaker 1: has been practicing, so we'll see what they pull off. 685 00:30:55,988 --> 00:30:58,828 Speaker 1: It's just all leading to the drama kicking off tonight. Guys, 686 00:30:58,988 --> 00:31:01,308 Speaker 1: we really appreciate it. You guys enjoy Tampa to the 687 00:31:01,348 --> 00:31:03,388 Speaker 1: game tonight.

And I think Daniel Jones is gonna 693 00:31:15,628 --> 00:31:17,108 Speaker 1: pull a little bit of a Joe Flacco here. What 694 00:31:17,148 --> 00:31:19,108 Speaker 1: do I mean by that? Oh, Peter bet on himself, 695 00:31:19,108 --> 00:31:21,108 Speaker 1: final year of a contract. People wondering if he's the 696 00:31:21,108 --> 00:31:25,788 Speaker 1: guy undeniable performance. How do the Giants not pay Daniel 697 00:31:25,828 --> 00:31:29,148 Speaker 1: Jones After this game on Sunday, I thought he was 698 00:31:29,188 --> 00:31:31,588 Speaker 1: the best player on the field, not only Sunday, but 699 00:31:31,708 --> 00:31:34,068 Speaker 1: on Saturday as well. Daniel Jones, if you had told 700 00:31:34,108 --> 00:31:35,828 Speaker 1: me in August who would be getting a game ball 701 00:31:36,268 --> 00:31:38,348 Speaker 1: in mid January, I would have told you you're crazy. 702 00:31:38,428 --> 00:31:40,068 Speaker 1: I'm one of the guys who wasn't seeing this kind 703 00:31:40,068 --> 00:31:41,828 Speaker 1: of Daniel Jones diddy at ye of the bag, and 704 00:31:41,868 --> 00:31:44,628 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what Brian Davie had confidence into Daniel Jones. Congratulations, 705 00:31:44,668 --> 00:31:46,268 Speaker 1: best player in football this weekend. What if we told 706 00:31:46,268 --> 00:31:48,028 Speaker 1: you in August that Isaiah Hodges would be getting a 707 00:31:48,068 --> 00:31:50,668 Speaker 1: game ball? How about Daniel Jones received Isaiah Hodgins. This 708 00:31:50,708 --> 00:31:52,788 Speaker 1: guy was on a Bill's practice squad a couple of 709 00:31:52,828 --> 00:31:55,708 Speaker 1: months ago, gets claimed on waivers by the Giants, and 710 00:31:55,788 --> 00:31:58,908 Speaker 1: he was amazing yesterday in a playoff game. Goes immediately 711 00:31:58,948 --> 00:32:01,588 Speaker 1: after the game and tweets at us a clip from 712 00:32:01,668 --> 00:32:03,988 Speaker 1: this show on Friday of me being skeptical about whether 713 00:32:03,988 --> 00:32:07,308 Speaker 1: the Giants receivers because make enough plays immediately after the game, 714 00:32:07,348 --> 00:32:09,388 Speaker 1: like he had that one ready then he went and 715 00:32:09,428 --> 00:32:12,228 Speaker 1: deleted it.

What if I told you in August? 719 00:32:17,868 --> 00:32:19,988 Speaker 1: What if you told Kyle Shanahan in August that he'd 720 00:32:19,988 --> 00:32:22,228 Speaker 1: be starting his quarterback in the playoffs and his name 721 00:32:22,228 --> 00:32:25,508 Speaker 1: would be Rock Purty. Seriously, you go from Tree Lance 722 00:32:25,668 --> 00:32:28,508 Speaker 1: to Jimmy Garoppolo, to Brock Purty, and that is the 723 00:32:28,548 --> 00:32:30,748 Speaker 1: man that is coloring outside the lines and making it 724 00:32:30,828 --> 00:32:34,188 Speaker 1: all happen. He has a wealth of talent on this team. 725 00:32:34,548 --> 00:32:36,748 Speaker 1: Someone could consider, Oh, that's an easy job to have. No, 726 00:32:36,868 --> 00:32:39,228 Speaker 1: he's got to have that whole machine, the humming, and 727 00:32:39,228 --> 00:32:41,348 Speaker 1: he's doing it.

Down twenty 730 00:32:48,308 --> 00:32:51,588 Speaker 1: seven to seven at halftime, he rallied the troops a 731 00:32:51,708 --> 00:32:54,988 Speaker 1: fourth and one call, also going for a two point conversion, 732 00:32:55,228 --> 00:32:58,028 Speaker 1: putting the ball in the hands of this quarterback and 733 00:32:58,108 --> 00:33:00,468 Speaker 1: to come back and win that game in that fashion, 734 00:33:00,708 --> 00:33:05,308 Speaker 1: third biggest comeback and NFL playoff history, Ug Peterson turning 735 00:33:05,348 --> 00:33:08,628 Speaker 1: that organization around.
