0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:40.240
<v Speaker 2>in What Drive with Nick Wright, first show post Thanksgiving.

0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:43.760
<v Speaker 2>All it took was us to not actually do a

0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:47.200
<v Speaker 2>gambling show and I went four and one, all my

0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:52.720
<v Speaker 2>picks documented on Twitter four and oh going to start

0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:54.800
<v Speaker 2>the first four and then the last one the Browns

0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:59.800
<v Speaker 2>Dori and Thompson Robinson got injured and that pick went

0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 2>to die with PJ Walker playing quarterback. But that puts us.

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 2>I do believe. We will check on Thursday. We are

0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:12.400
<v Speaker 2>right at five hundred. Demanse had I believe a losing teaser,

0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:15.400
<v Speaker 2>but that's okay. We sell it a good weekend hanging out.

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:17.640
<v Speaker 2>I got to see Demanse here in New York. Good

0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:20.080
<v Speaker 2>family time, and we have a ton to We have

0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:22.640
<v Speaker 2>a ton to do today, as the producers told me,

0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 2>by the way, for our YouTube viewers and for this

0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:29.480
<v Speaker 2>the watchers, whether you're watching live or later, we know

0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:32.400
<v Speaker 2>we've been having some technical issues. We are doing a

0:02:32.440 --> 0:02:36.920
<v Speaker 2>whole technical rehab after the show today, so hopefully moving

0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:40.280
<v Speaker 2>forward we won't have as many We appreciate you guys

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:42.040
<v Speaker 2>bearing with us on it. I know for people that

0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 2>download the podcast and listen, it maybe hasn't been as apparent.

0:02:45.639 --> 0:02:47.280
<v Speaker 2>But for those of you that watch it live or

0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 2>watch it on YouTube, I know it's been a pain

0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:51.639
<v Speaker 2>in the ass. We're hoping to get that squared away today,

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:53.880
<v Speaker 2>all right. And one of the reasons I thought of

0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 2>it is Gabe told me before the start of the

0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.360
<v Speaker 2>show to not be moving around so much because it

0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:00.840
<v Speaker 2>messages with the Internet. And I of course start the

0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:03.120
<v Speaker 2>show by waving my arms wildly because I don't know

0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 2>how to do this any other way. We have a

0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:08.280
<v Speaker 2>lot to get into today Week twelve in the NFL

0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 2>and today the Pro Football Hall of Fame semifinalists came out.

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.400
<v Speaker 2>That's one of my favorite days of the year. So

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.320
<v Speaker 2>we'll get to all of that, but first we will

0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 2>get to what missed. So what missed the cut for

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 2>today's show is Dolly Parton cursing the Cowboys because I

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:30.280
<v Speaker 2>don't believe in that, Dion losing some recruits at Colorado

0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:33.000
<v Speaker 2>as that seems to have at least briefly gone left

0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.080
<v Speaker 2>on him, and Lebron plays the most minutes of anyone

0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 2>in the NBA history, also has the worst loss of

0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:42.440
<v Speaker 2>his career. None of that is in today's show. Here

0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:45.440
<v Speaker 2>is what is in today's show, Demons, start us off.

0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:48.960
<v Speaker 3>Yes, the Pro Football Hall of Fame announced their twenty

0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:53.880
<v Speaker 3>five semifinalists for this year's class. So Julius Peppers and

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 3>Antonio Gates are eligible for first ballot selections. What are

0:03:58.320 --> 0:03:59.120
<v Speaker 3>your thoughts on those?

0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:04.320
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so twenty So this is why the Pro Football

0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:07.080
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Fame, in my opinion, is the best of

0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:12.440
<v Speaker 2>the Hall of Fames. Twenty five semifinalists, that list will

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:17.720
<v Speaker 2>be whittled down to fifteen finalists and then of that

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:22.919
<v Speaker 2>fifteen five make it. And so we are going to

0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 2>do that ourselves. Right now, we will go through the

0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:32.599
<v Speaker 2>twenty five names. We will eliminate ten right off the bat,

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:37.160
<v Speaker 2>and then from those fifteen remaining, We're gonna have some

0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:41.320
<v Speaker 2>very hard choices. So I will do this as quickly

0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:44.279
<v Speaker 2>as I can. But this is one of my favorite exercises.

0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:50.839
<v Speaker 2>It also should be noteworthy for contemporary watching of football

0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:55.240
<v Speaker 2>when you hear people throw around around the term, oh,

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:59.120
<v Speaker 2>he's a future Hall of Famer. It is a god

0:04:59.240 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 2>doog difficult old Hall of Fame to get into. So

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:07.120
<v Speaker 2>going by position, there are no quarterbacks eligible of the

0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:09.480
<v Speaker 2>semifinalists right now, so we can get rid of them.

0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:15.640
<v Speaker 2>Running backs. Tiki Barber, easy elimination. Really good player, played

0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:19.760
<v Speaker 2>in a big market. I understand, you know, had a

0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.560
<v Speaker 2>big name and some big moments. He is not a

0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:25.360
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Famer. I'm surprised he was even a semi finalist.

0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:30.160
<v Speaker 2>Eddie George. We're okay with him being a semi We

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:35.039
<v Speaker 2>won't cut him right now. That what the numbers are good.

0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 2>His value to a really good team was great and was,

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:44.000
<v Speaker 2>in my opinion, the most important offensive player on a

0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl team that came a yard short. We'll let

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:51.160
<v Speaker 2>him move on. Fred Taylor really good player, not a

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Famer. Ricky Waters really good player, not a

0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:58.480
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Famer wide receiver, and Kwam Bolden awesome player.

0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:03.360
<v Speaker 2>He's cut. It's not even a question. Tory Holt, who

0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:07.680
<v Speaker 2>has been banging on the door repeatedly, has really eye

0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:12.840
<v Speaker 2>popping numbers. He'll move on to the semifinalist category. Andre Johnson,

0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:17.400
<v Speaker 2>he is a noe to me. What makes a Hall

0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:22.160
<v Speaker 2>of Famer. One of the things is, were you in

0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:26.960
<v Speaker 2>the discussion for the best in the league, the best

0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:31.800
<v Speaker 2>for multiple years? Andre Johnson absolutely was. He moves on.

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Steve Smith overachiever, really good player. The numbers are better

0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:44.080
<v Speaker 2>than you think. We'll advance him to the semifinalists. Hines

0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:48.040
<v Speaker 2>Ward absolutely not. I understand people loved his blocking and

0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:50.599
<v Speaker 2>he was a champion. He's not a Hall of Famer.

0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:57.800
<v Speaker 2>Reggie Wayne, he'll move on for now. Tight End Antonio Gates,

0:06:57.839 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 2>he has to move on as a semifinalist. Unbelievable numbers. Again,

0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Remember we have to cut ten, then we have to

0:07:03.680 --> 0:07:11.080
<v Speaker 2>cut another ten. Offensive line Willie Anderson was a really

0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:15.040
<v Speaker 2>good tackle for the Bengals, had a really good career.

0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Was not a Hall of Famer. Jarry Evans guard for

0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:22.280
<v Speaker 2>the Saints forever. One of the best interior offensive linemen

0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 2>of his era, if I'm not mistaken, a member of

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:28.160
<v Speaker 2>the All Decades team. He moves on. Now we're to

0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:31.920
<v Speaker 2>the defensive side of the ball. Eric Allen long career,

0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:36.320
<v Speaker 2>good career, maybe even a great career. He's not a

0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Famer. Rodney Harrison, Hugh moves on to the

0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:44.560
<v Speaker 2>next round. Was great with the Chargers, then won two

0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:48.160
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowls with the Patriots. Was awesome with them. He's

0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:53.200
<v Speaker 2>a finalist. Patrick Willett, I'm sorry, Darren Woodson, that guy's

0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:56.840
<v Speaker 2>a Hall of Famer. To me, was awesome with the Cowboys,

0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:00.880
<v Speaker 2>an All Decade Team member, won three Super bowl one

0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:03.200
<v Speaker 2>of the lynchpins of their defense. To me, he's a

0:08:03.240 --> 0:08:07.120
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Famer. He certainly moves on. Linebackers London Fletcher

0:08:07.200 --> 0:08:11.440
<v Speaker 2>not a Hall of Famer. James Harrison, a Defensive Player

0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:15.160
<v Speaker 2>of the Year, the single greatest play in Super Bowl history,

0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 2>A champion. He moves on. Patrick Willis one of the

0:08:20.520 --> 0:08:24.880
<v Speaker 2>greatest players, the best inside linebacker of his era. Now,

0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 2>it was a very short career, but he, to me,

0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:32.800
<v Speaker 2>was a Hall of Fame player. He moves on. Defensive line.

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Jared Allen played for my Chiefs, was excellent, played for

0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:45.800
<v Speaker 2>the Vikings, was excellent, great counting stats. Was never the best,

0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:49.720
<v Speaker 2>second best, or third best at his position. He doesn't

0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:55.360
<v Speaker 2>move on Dwight Freeney. He absolutely does. Robert Mathis, who

0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 2>played alongside Dwight Freeney with the Colts, really really good player.

0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:03.640
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Famer Julius Pepper's, no doubt, one of the

0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.920
<v Speaker 2>greatest players I've ever seen. He moves on. And then

0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:12.079
<v Speaker 2>the specialist, Devin Hester, the single greatest kick returner and

0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:15.800
<v Speaker 2>punt returner in NFL history. He must move on. So

0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 2>cut from this group are the following Tiki, Fred Taylor,

0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:28.160
<v Speaker 2>Ricky Waters and Kwam Bolden Hines, Ward, Willie Anderson, Eric Allen,

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:35.040
<v Speaker 2>London Fletcher, Jared Allen, Robert Mathis. Those are all great players.

0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:39.320
<v Speaker 2>They're all cut. But now it gets damn near impossible.

0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:44.200
<v Speaker 2>Our finalists are the following, and we can only include five.

0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:49.320
<v Speaker 2>And this is why again when people throw around, oh,

0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:52.560
<v Speaker 2>he's a future Hall of Famer, Are you sure about that?

0:09:53.720 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 2>We can only include five? Eddie George Tory, Holt, Andre Jones,

0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Steve Smith, Reggie, Wayne, Antonio Gates, Jarry Evans, Rodney Harrison,

0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:13.720
<v Speaker 2>Darren Woodson, James Harrison, Patrick Willis, Dwight Freeney, Julius Peppers,

0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Devin Hester. It's so hard here, Eddie George is out.

0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:28.440
<v Speaker 2>That's fifteen, and so oh that's fourteen. Okay, well then

0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:32.280
<v Speaker 2>we can add all right. Then uh well, then whoever

0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:35.440
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't have included, they wouldn't have made it anyway.

0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:37.520
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know who I left out, but or

0:10:37.559 --> 0:10:40.040
<v Speaker 2>if I didn't mention someone did I did not say

0:10:40.040 --> 0:10:43.840
<v Speaker 2>Antonio Gates. Maybe I didn't say Antonio Gates. My apologies.

0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.079
<v Speaker 2>He's definitely on the very short list. I thought I

0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:53.800
<v Speaker 2>counted this out properly. Maybe I'm wrong. Eddie George, you're out.

0:10:54.160 --> 0:11:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Tory Holt, who's been waiting forever, You're out. Reggie you're out,

0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:13.680
<v Speaker 2>Steve Smith, you're out. God dogg it, Rodney Harrison, you're out.

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:21.840
<v Speaker 2>That then leaves us. The following guys left, Andre Johnson,

0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:32.240
<v Speaker 2>Antonio Gates, Jarry Evans, Darren Woodson, James Harrison, Dwight Freeney,

0:11:33.120 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 2>Julius Peppers, Devin Hester. Who are the absolute no doubt

0:11:41.040 --> 0:11:47.160
<v Speaker 2>must have in Julius Peppers is a no doubt first

0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Ballad Hall of Famer he is in. In my opinion.

0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Andre Johnson was one was either the best or the

0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:58.360
<v Speaker 2>second best wide receiver in the NFL with terrible quarterbacks

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:04.320
<v Speaker 2>for a half decade. He's got to be in. Patrick

0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Willis one of the greatest inside linebackers in NFL history.

0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 2>He's got to be in. Devin Hester, the single greatest

0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.400
<v Speaker 2>kick returner in NFL history, He's got to be in.

0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:23.640
<v Speaker 2>That's four Andre, Patrick Willis, Julius Peppers, Devin Hester. That

0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:28.120
<v Speaker 2>means we have one spot available for the following guys.

0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:31.360
<v Speaker 2>Jarry Evans, one of the greatest interior linemen ever, an

0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:36.840
<v Speaker 2>All Decade Team member, Antonio Gates one of the four

0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:42.319
<v Speaker 2>greatest pass catching tight ends ever. Darren Woodson, a lynchpin

0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:48.080
<v Speaker 2>of a dynasty. James Harrison, a defensive Player of the

0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:52.200
<v Speaker 2>Year who had the greatest play in NFL history in

0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl in Super Bowl history. And Dwight Freeney, whose

0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:03.800
<v Speaker 2>numbers are beyond belief and I believe was an All

0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:08.560
<v Speaker 2>Decade Team member. Let me check, uh yeah, was an

0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:16.040
<v Speaker 2>All Decade Team member. This is why this is the

0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:18.080
<v Speaker 2>best Hall of Fame, in the hardest Hall of Fame.

0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:24.120
<v Speaker 2>I watched Dwhite Freenie's whole career. The Colts defense was

0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:27.520
<v Speaker 2>built upon the idea, Peyton'll get us a lead and

0:13:27.559 --> 0:13:30.640
<v Speaker 2>then Dwight Freeni will stripsack the opponent and put the

0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:35.400
<v Speaker 2>game away. He's in. So our five Hall of Famers,

0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.800
<v Speaker 2>if it were up to us, would be Devin Hester,

0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:45.080
<v Speaker 2>Julius Peppers, Dwight Freeny, Patrick Willis, and Andre Johnson, with

0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:51.199
<v Speaker 2>the hardest cuts for this year's class being James Harrison,

0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:59.160
<v Speaker 2>Darren Woodson, Jar Evans, and Antonio Gates. So here is

0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:05.480
<v Speaker 2>why the this is such a tricky sport to do

0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:12.600
<v Speaker 2>the Hall of Fame. I just mentioned that, I just

0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:18.680
<v Speaker 2>mentioned the guys who were just barely on the cut, right,

0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:22.680
<v Speaker 2>And let me make sure I have this right, and

0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:26.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna try to find this in real time. The

0:14:26.640 --> 0:14:32.280
<v Speaker 2>problem for this is always that guys who are on

0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:36.200
<v Speaker 2>the cut and then all of a sudden come available

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.960
<v Speaker 2>or like they just barely missed out. So for me,

0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:44.360
<v Speaker 2>you had James Harrison, Antonio Gates, who was a first

0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 2>ballot eligibility, Jarry Evans, and who's the other one that

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.600
<v Speaker 2>I had, Darren Woodson just barely miss out. The problem

0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:57.640
<v Speaker 2>is next year, who becomes who is added to the

0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:01.840
<v Speaker 2>list because all of a sudden they're eligible. So in

0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:06.920
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty five, Luke, Keikley, Marshall Yanda are the biggest

0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.640
<v Speaker 2>names eligible. I don't think either one of those guys

0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:12.560
<v Speaker 2>will be a first ballot. Patrick Willis wasn't a first

0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:15.880
<v Speaker 2>ballot and he has a very similar profile as Keithley.

0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:19.800
<v Speaker 2>So maybe we can get some some of these guys

0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:23.120
<v Speaker 2>who have been waiting in because in twenty twenty six,

0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:27.800
<v Speaker 2>Drew Brees becomes available, he takes one of the spots,

0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:33.000
<v Speaker 2>and in twenty twenty seven Adrian Peterson becomes available, he

0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:36.840
<v Speaker 2>takes one of the spots. Antonio Brown does two. That's

0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:39.920
<v Speaker 2>gonna be a very tough one. And in twenty twenty

0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:45.160
<v Speaker 2>eight Tom Brady and JJ Watt become available, they take

0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:51.440
<v Speaker 2>two of the spots. So point is, over the next five, six, seven, eight,

0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 2>over the next four classes after this year, there are

0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:59.080
<v Speaker 2>twenty guys that are gonna go in, but four of

0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:03.440
<v Speaker 2>them are no doubt first ballot guys that aren't right

0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:06.600
<v Speaker 2>now in the group. So these guys who have been waiting,

0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:10.880
<v Speaker 2>a guy like let me find a good example, someone

0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:17.160
<v Speaker 2>like Reggie Wayne or Tory Holt might just never get in,

0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:23.840
<v Speaker 2>and James Harrison, who I love, is gonna be waiting forever.

0:16:24.960 --> 0:16:27.080
<v Speaker 2>And so I think it's the best Hall of fame.

0:16:27.160 --> 0:16:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I think it's the hardest hall of fame to make.

0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:33.240
<v Speaker 2>I think it is the coolest one to debate and discuss.

0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:37.840
<v Speaker 2>And there are just certain years that you're like, well,

0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:41.560
<v Speaker 2>how are we gonna leave these guys out? Because they

0:16:41.600 --> 0:16:44.800
<v Speaker 2>only let five in? Okay, I hope that was interesting

0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:47.560
<v Speaker 2>to you guys. I love doing that every single year

0:16:47.760 --> 0:16:51.280
<v Speaker 2>because it's a good reminder you watch NFL football and

0:16:51.320 --> 0:16:54.520
<v Speaker 2>you hear the announcers call a lot of guys future

0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:58.000
<v Speaker 2>Hall of famers. Man oh man, you know what I

0:16:58.120 --> 0:17:01.240
<v Speaker 2>want to do this if everyone else every other podcast,

0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:04.240
<v Speaker 2>maybe this is you know, the I have the wrong

0:17:04.320 --> 0:17:08.720
<v Speaker 2>recipe for success. Other podcasts that are highly successful, they're

0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:13.040
<v Speaker 2>also not immediately getting into last night's sports stories. Instead,

0:17:13.480 --> 0:17:18.440
<v Speaker 2>they are just talking repeatedly and NonStop about the freakiest

0:17:18.520 --> 0:17:22.480
<v Speaker 2>sex imaginable. And I just really am shocked at how

0:17:22.520 --> 0:17:27.840
<v Speaker 2>many people are into what other sportscasters sex lives are like.

0:17:28.119 --> 0:17:31.720
<v Speaker 2>But man oh man, those are podcast ratings. Bonanzas Demansey,

0:17:31.800 --> 0:17:34.800
<v Speaker 2>you seem confused by this, I'll send you some clips.

0:17:34.960 --> 0:17:37.480
<v Speaker 2>We're no no, no, no, no. See, this is where

0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:40.240
<v Speaker 2>you need to just do a better job of listening

0:17:40.320 --> 0:17:43.400
<v Speaker 2>to me. Here. I'm not naming any names. I'm simply

0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:46.600
<v Speaker 2>saying there's a lot of very popular podcasts that are

0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:50.240
<v Speaker 2>super horny and that are just talking sex off the top.

0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:53.520
<v Speaker 2>So we're gonna talk pro football Hall of Fame the

0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:56.480
<v Speaker 2>and I'm gonna do this real quick, and I'm sure

0:17:56.480 --> 0:17:59.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna leave someone out because I'm doing it off

0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:02.760
<v Speaker 2>the top of my head. But how many right now?

0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:07.640
<v Speaker 2>No doubt Hall of famers are currently playing. The Miami

0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:11.919
<v Speaker 2>Dolphins have one in Tyreek Kill. The Buffalo Bills have

0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:16.439
<v Speaker 2>one in Von Miller, and then Josh Allen obviously is

0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:19.600
<v Speaker 2>pacing towards a Hall of Fame career, but he's not.

0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:21.760
<v Speaker 2>If he stopped now, he wouldn't be close to it.

0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:27.560
<v Speaker 2>The Jets have Aaron Rodgers. The Patriots have nobody. And

0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:29.800
<v Speaker 2>if the producers, if I mentioned any team and you

0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.679
<v Speaker 2>think I'm missing someone obvious, go ahead and tell me

0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:37.440
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens right now. Say it again, Daniel, I did

0:18:37.520 --> 0:18:41.239
<v Speaker 2>not hear it. Okay, they're gonna check me on it.

0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:46.959
<v Speaker 2>I and I'm just doing no doubt, no doubt. Hall

0:18:47.000 --> 0:18:50.479
<v Speaker 2>of Famers, Tyreek von Miller, Aaron Rodgers. In the AFC East,

0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:54.440
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens right now have none. Lamar is pacing towards it,

0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:59.080
<v Speaker 2>but he's not there. TJ. Watt for the Steelers, Miles

0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:04.040
<v Speaker 2>Garrett for the Brown Joe Burrow's obviously pacing towards it,

0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:09.600
<v Speaker 2>but we'll see. The Jags have none, the Colts have none,

0:19:10.080 --> 0:19:14.000
<v Speaker 2>The Texans have none. Derrick Henry is not a no doubter,

0:19:14.119 --> 0:19:18.600
<v Speaker 2>but I'm gonna addam he's pretty damned plot Derrick Henry. Oh,

0:19:18.680 --> 0:19:21.679
<v Speaker 2>good call Justin Tucker, Good call Tom On. So now

0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:26.320
<v Speaker 2>we're at seven. The Chiefs have two in Mahomes and Kelsey.

0:19:26.640 --> 0:19:29.080
<v Speaker 2>Chris Jones is not a no doubter. He might make it,

0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:32.520
<v Speaker 2>but he's not a no doubter. The Broncos have none.

0:19:33.760 --> 0:19:37.199
<v Speaker 2>Russell Wilson's going to be a borderline. The Raiders have

0:19:37.320 --> 0:19:41.560
<v Speaker 2>one in DeVante Adams, where at ten, the Chargers have none.

0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:47.520
<v Speaker 2>In the NFC, the Eagles have Jason Kelcey. Lane Johnson's

0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:52.639
<v Speaker 2>gonna be borderline. The Cowboys have Micah's pacing towards it,

0:19:52.680 --> 0:19:56.080
<v Speaker 2>but way too far away have none. The Giants obviously

0:19:56.119 --> 0:20:02.919
<v Speaker 2>have none, Washington has none, Detroit's got none. Justin Jefferson's

0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:06.919
<v Speaker 2>pacing towards it for the Vikings, but he's not there yet.

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:10.960
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure there's Khalil Mack's not a no no.

0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:16.119
<v Speaker 2>He'll be borderline at best. And I'm sure I'm leaving

0:20:16.119 --> 0:20:20.600
<v Speaker 2>out some older defensive players who I've forgotten have are

0:20:20.640 --> 0:20:23.720
<v Speaker 2>still playing, that have Hall of Fame careers. The Packers

0:20:23.760 --> 0:20:28.800
<v Speaker 2>have none, the Bears have none, the Falcons have none,

0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:31.920
<v Speaker 2>the Saints have none. Mike Evans is not going to

0:20:31.960 --> 0:20:33.840
<v Speaker 2>be a no doubter, but we'll put him on there.

0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:39.760
<v Speaker 2>He's putting up quite the career. The Niners, Trent Williams

0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:43.399
<v Speaker 2>is a no doubter. Christian McCaffrey's pacing towards it, but

0:20:43.400 --> 0:20:47.080
<v Speaker 2>he's not there. The Seahawks have none, the Rams have

0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:50.359
<v Speaker 2>Aaron Donald and I'm sure I'm forgetting someone really good,

0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:53.480
<v Speaker 2>So they are right now in my opinion fifteen no

0:20:53.600 --> 0:20:56.600
<v Speaker 2>doubt haul and and by the way, the quarterbacks, A

0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:59.480
<v Speaker 2>bunch of these quarterbacks will make it. But the only

0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:03.199
<v Speaker 2>active quarterbacks right now who have already done enough to

0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:07.040
<v Speaker 2>be no doubters are Rogers and Mahomes. All the other

0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:09.920
<v Speaker 2>quarterbacks still have a lot of work to do. Rogers

0:21:09.960 --> 0:21:12.960
<v Speaker 2>and Mahomes could walk away today and be Hall of Famers. Okay,

0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:15.320
<v Speaker 2>there's our Hall of Fame half hour. Now let's get

0:21:15.359 --> 0:21:17.400
<v Speaker 2>to what was actually played for the show. Go ahead,

0:21:17.440 --> 0:21:18.880
<v Speaker 2>demanse all.

0:21:18.840 --> 0:21:22.040
<v Speaker 3>Right, Philly took care of business in Philly against the Bills.

0:21:22.240 --> 0:21:24.879
<v Speaker 3>Pray usually probably thought they would have done that, but

0:21:24.920 --> 0:21:27.399
<v Speaker 3>the Bills did play them close. It went into overtime,

0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:31.399
<v Speaker 3>and now Josh Allen has zero overtime wins throughout his career.

0:21:32.119 --> 0:21:34.160
<v Speaker 3>He made a couple of mental errors there at the end.

0:21:34.720 --> 0:21:36.359
<v Speaker 3>Would you like it? Would you like to say anything

0:21:36.400 --> 0:21:37.920
<v Speaker 3>to Bills fans to make it worse?

0:21:38.320 --> 0:21:40.439
<v Speaker 2>Or no, I don't want to make it worse. Listen,

0:21:41.480 --> 0:21:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Josh Allen played really really well in that game. I

0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:46.480
<v Speaker 2>thought Josh Allen out played Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts had

0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:52.440
<v Speaker 2>a second straight really odd game where he did not

0:21:52.560 --> 0:21:54.479
<v Speaker 2>play well at all to start the game and then

0:21:54.560 --> 0:21:57.400
<v Speaker 2>made critical play after critical play late in the game.

0:21:57.880 --> 0:22:02.520
<v Speaker 2>And the Eagles are just great at finding ways to win,

0:22:02.680 --> 0:22:06.120
<v Speaker 2>and I give them massive credit. The Bills should have

0:22:06.200 --> 0:22:09.640
<v Speaker 2>won that game. They find they are great at finding

0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:12.560
<v Speaker 2>ways to lose games. But that wasn't on Josh Allen.

0:22:12.600 --> 0:22:16.439
<v Speaker 2>The interception notwithstanding. But here is the part where Bills

0:22:16.440 --> 0:22:20.119
<v Speaker 2>fans and I are gonna agree and I mentioned it

0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:23.840
<v Speaker 2>on TV, and to me it is these story from

0:22:23.920 --> 0:22:28.439
<v Speaker 2>the NFL Weekend Sean McDermott didn't trust Josh Allen. At

0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:33.640
<v Speaker 2>the end of that game, the Eagles are lining up

0:22:34.160 --> 0:22:36.600
<v Speaker 2>for a fifty nine yard field goal, the Bills have

0:22:36.640 --> 0:22:42.160
<v Speaker 2>two timeouts, the Eagles are down three. McDermott, in my opinion,

0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:46.040
<v Speaker 2>foolishly wastes one of those timeouts to ice the kicker,

0:22:46.440 --> 0:22:50.280
<v Speaker 2>even though with seventy years of data, we have no

0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:54.880
<v Speaker 2>data that supports icing kickers helps or hurts the proposition.

0:22:55.320 --> 0:22:58.600
<v Speaker 2>It's just doing it to do it. And they burned

0:22:58.600 --> 0:23:01.600
<v Speaker 2>a timeout that they could have viewed. And I would

0:23:01.680 --> 0:23:04.040
<v Speaker 2>argue that Eagles, because they didn't have a time out

0:23:04.080 --> 0:23:07.280
<v Speaker 2>of their own, were happy the Bills called timeout so

0:23:07.320 --> 0:23:10.600
<v Speaker 2>they could settle the whole situation down, so McDermott could

0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:13.520
<v Speaker 2>have had the ball on the twenty five yard line

0:23:13.760 --> 0:23:16.960
<v Speaker 2>with twenty seconds left in two timeouts, where a field

0:23:16.960 --> 0:23:20.960
<v Speaker 2>goal wins the game. Keep in mind, the bills best

0:23:21.040 --> 0:23:24.920
<v Speaker 2>chance at a Super Bowl was ruined by Patrick Mahomes

0:23:24.960 --> 0:23:27.360
<v Speaker 2>having the ball at the twenty five yard line with

0:23:27.520 --> 0:23:31.080
<v Speaker 2>two timeouts and thirteen seconds left. He had a whole

0:23:31.119 --> 0:23:35.119
<v Speaker 2>extra seven seconds. Now, McDermott burns the one timeout. You

0:23:35.200 --> 0:23:38.560
<v Speaker 2>still have one timeout, twenty seconds. Field goal wins you

0:23:38.600 --> 0:23:41.600
<v Speaker 2>the game. To take a knee there with Josh Allen

0:23:41.880 --> 0:23:44.639
<v Speaker 2>when he was playing as well as he is is

0:23:44.760 --> 0:23:48.239
<v Speaker 2>such an indictment on your faith in that quarterback. And

0:23:48.280 --> 0:23:51.720
<v Speaker 2>while I'd been critical of Josh Allen, the entire team

0:23:51.840 --> 0:23:54.960
<v Speaker 2>is built around the idea that you have a superhero

0:23:55.000 --> 0:23:58.119
<v Speaker 2>at quarterback and for them to take a knee, And

0:23:58.160 --> 0:24:00.680
<v Speaker 2>it's not like, oh, we have a time of history

0:24:00.720 --> 0:24:04.080
<v Speaker 2>of winning these games in ot Sean mcdermot's never won

0:24:04.119 --> 0:24:06.400
<v Speaker 2>a single game in overtime as a head coach. Josh

0:24:06.480 --> 0:24:08.280
<v Speaker 2>Allens never won a single game in overtime as a

0:24:08.280 --> 0:24:11.159
<v Speaker 2>starting quarterback. You don't have a ton of history of that.

0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:15.560
<v Speaker 2>And with twenty seconds and even just the one time out,

0:24:15.960 --> 0:24:18.840
<v Speaker 2>you have the entire field to work with. You can

0:24:18.920 --> 0:24:22.399
<v Speaker 2>throw over the middle, call time out, get it around midfield,

0:24:22.640 --> 0:24:26.679
<v Speaker 2>then try to work the sideline and try a fifty

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:29.480
<v Speaker 2>five yarder to win the game. So listen the Bills.

0:24:30.080 --> 0:24:33.919
<v Speaker 2>DVA says the Bills have a fourteen percent chance of

0:24:33.960 --> 0:24:38.480
<v Speaker 2>making the playoffs. The ESPN analytics folks say fifteen percent chance.

0:24:38.560 --> 0:24:41.679
<v Speaker 2>Vegas has the Bills at a seventeen percent chance. The

0:24:41.760 --> 0:24:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Bills have a zero percent chance of making the playoffs.

0:24:45.560 --> 0:24:48.879
<v Speaker 2>They they're gonna look back and say, we lost to

0:24:49.000 --> 0:24:51.879
<v Speaker 2>Zach Wilson in overtime to start the year, We lost

0:24:51.920 --> 0:24:55.200
<v Speaker 2>to Mac Jones and the Patriots. We gave a game

0:24:55.240 --> 0:24:59.880
<v Speaker 2>away against Denver, we gave a game away against Philadelphia. Yeah,

0:25:00.080 --> 0:25:02.960
<v Speaker 2>maybe we should be nine to three, but you're six

0:25:03.000 --> 0:25:06.440
<v Speaker 2>and six and you're not gonna have any tie breakers

0:25:06.440 --> 0:25:09.879
<v Speaker 2>because you have five conference losses. So at ten and seven,

0:25:10.000 --> 0:25:13.120
<v Speaker 2>you will not make it. The only way they could

0:25:13.119 --> 0:25:16.960
<v Speaker 2>make the playoffs is going eleven and six. And I'm

0:25:17.000 --> 0:25:18.920
<v Speaker 2>here to tell you a team that is six and

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:22.800
<v Speaker 2>six is not winning five straight when those games are

0:25:22.920 --> 0:25:26.440
<v Speaker 2>at Kansas City, home for Dallas, at the Chargers, home

0:25:26.480 --> 0:25:28.879
<v Speaker 2>for the Patriots who are god awful but beat you,

0:25:29.280 --> 0:25:33.320
<v Speaker 2>and then at Miami. Just not happening. Like people need

0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:36.920
<v Speaker 2>to remove them their baysym priors of what they thought

0:25:36.960 --> 0:25:39.920
<v Speaker 2>the Bills were supposed to be. And recognize this. If

0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:43.520
<v Speaker 2>to make the playoffs, the Atlanta Falcons had to win

0:25:43.600 --> 0:25:47.439
<v Speaker 2>five straight games, would you believe they could? Or the

0:25:47.520 --> 0:25:49.840
<v Speaker 2>Green Bay Packers had to win five straight games, would

0:25:49.840 --> 0:25:52.520
<v Speaker 2>you believe they could? Of course not. Well, they have

0:25:52.520 --> 0:25:55.479
<v Speaker 2>the same number of losses as the Bills. If the

0:25:55.600 --> 0:25:58.640
<v Speaker 2>Colts had to run the table to make the playoffs,

0:25:58.680 --> 0:26:00.879
<v Speaker 2>would you believe in them? Of course, they have a

0:26:00.920 --> 0:26:03.879
<v Speaker 2>better record than the Bills. So yet, no, the Bills

0:26:03.920 --> 0:26:07.160
<v Speaker 2>are cooked. They're going to end up firing Sean McDermott

0:26:07.480 --> 0:26:10.919
<v Speaker 2>and we'll see if next year they can be the

0:26:11.000 --> 0:26:15.679
<v Speaker 2>team that for three years everyone in the media, except

0:26:15.680 --> 0:26:18.920
<v Speaker 2>for your trustee host Nick Wright, has tried to convince

0:26:18.960 --> 0:26:25.560
<v Speaker 2>you they are. They're a talented, underachieving team perpetually. That also,

0:26:25.600 --> 0:26:28.480
<v Speaker 2>by the way, is not nearly as talented as people

0:26:28.560 --> 0:26:31.480
<v Speaker 2>made them out to be. Von Miller unfortunately, is not

0:26:31.560 --> 0:26:34.439
<v Speaker 2>the same player. And aside from Diggs and Alan, who

0:26:34.520 --> 0:26:37.479
<v Speaker 2>do they have on offense that scares you? All Right,

0:26:37.520 --> 0:26:40.199
<v Speaker 2>let's go to the Eagles side of things, Demonsey.

0:26:41.160 --> 0:26:43.760
<v Speaker 3>Eagles side of things. Oh yeah, so the Eagles are

0:26:43.760 --> 0:26:47.000
<v Speaker 3>the best record in football right now, and Jalen Hurts

0:26:47.040 --> 0:26:49.760
<v Speaker 3>is in the running for MVP right now. They have

0:26:49.840 --> 0:26:53.040
<v Speaker 3>a showdown with the Niners next. Who are you rooting for?

0:26:53.119 --> 0:26:55.080
<v Speaker 3>Which one would scare you more in a Super Bowl

0:26:55.119 --> 0:26:57.159
<v Speaker 3>rematch between the Niners or Eagles.

0:26:57.840 --> 0:27:00.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, neither would scary, but the Eagles are a better team.

0:27:01.160 --> 0:27:04.080
<v Speaker 2>And I listen, I'd be thrilled to play Brock Party

0:27:04.080 --> 0:27:08.280
<v Speaker 2>in a Super Bowl. It would sign me up, Sign

0:27:08.359 --> 0:27:11.520
<v Speaker 2>me up for that. The Eagles won't be afraid of

0:27:11.520 --> 0:27:18.199
<v Speaker 2>the moment. The Eagles have a super complete team. The

0:27:18.280 --> 0:27:24.560
<v Speaker 2>Eagles have two stud receivers, and the Eagles are uh

0:27:24.880 --> 0:27:29.200
<v Speaker 2>and the Eagles are one of the most analytically savvy

0:27:29.240 --> 0:27:32.240
<v Speaker 2>teams in the league. It's not just the brotherly shove stuff,

0:27:32.880 --> 0:27:36.840
<v Speaker 2>it's all of their fourth down stuff, which not always

0:27:37.160 --> 0:27:41.359
<v Speaker 2>but they're typically super super sharp on one. More so,

0:27:41.400 --> 0:27:42.119
<v Speaker 2>the Eagles.

0:27:41.880 --> 0:27:44.600
<v Speaker 3>Would be the.

0:27:43.440 --> 0:27:45.640
<v Speaker 2>Pardon me, the tougher matchup in my opinion.

0:27:46.480 --> 0:27:50.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so they're home dogs right now. The Eagles are

0:27:50.119 --> 0:27:52.280
<v Speaker 3>in this game with Brock Party at quarterback.

0:27:53.119 --> 0:27:56.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's I think it's wildly disrespectful that a ten

0:27:56.080 --> 0:27:59.040
<v Speaker 2>and one healthy Eagles team is a home underdog. It's

0:27:59.080 --> 0:28:01.520
<v Speaker 2>not to say the Niner can't win that game, but

0:28:01.640 --> 0:28:05.280
<v Speaker 2>that is a wild line. That is what happened with

0:28:05.560 --> 0:28:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Dogs at home, and that is to me a what

0:28:11.640 --> 0:28:15.720
<v Speaker 2>Vegas is saying is that they think the Niners, fully healthy,

0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:18.560
<v Speaker 2>are far and away the best team in football. I

0:28:18.640 --> 0:28:21.359
<v Speaker 2>don't agree with them, but that's what Vegas is telling

0:28:21.440 --> 0:28:22.200
<v Speaker 2>us with that line.

0:28:22.240 --> 0:28:25.640
<v Speaker 3>All right, next, all right, So the Chiefs took care

0:28:25.680 --> 0:28:29.440
<v Speaker 3>of business in an AFC showdown versus the Raiders. They

0:28:29.480 --> 0:28:33.480
<v Speaker 3>erased the fourteen point deficit and ended up coming out

0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:36.480
<v Speaker 3>with the win. Meanwhile, the Ravens or my Ravens should

0:28:36.480 --> 0:28:38.360
<v Speaker 3>I say, still sit the top of the one seed.

0:28:38.800 --> 0:28:40.680
<v Speaker 3>But you say, is the or look like the more

0:28:40.720 --> 0:28:43.640
<v Speaker 3>incomplete or more complete team? But you've always been kind

0:28:43.640 --> 0:28:46.160
<v Speaker 3>of down on the Ravens. Do you think that Arrowhead

0:28:46.200 --> 0:28:48.040
<v Speaker 3>Invitational was in jeopardy at this point?

0:28:49.600 --> 0:28:51.880
<v Speaker 2>No? And I don't think the Ravens look like the

0:28:51.920 --> 0:28:57.040
<v Speaker 2>more complete team. Anybody thought the Ravens looked great on

0:28:57.240 --> 0:29:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Monday Night football. I'm sorry, Sunday Night f ball against

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:03.280
<v Speaker 2>the Chargers. I didn't. That's the worst defense in the NFL.

0:29:03.280 --> 0:29:05.760
<v Speaker 2>The Ravens have thirteen points with a minute left. Now

0:29:05.800 --> 0:29:08.920
<v Speaker 2>they ended up with twenty because Zay Flowers ran.

0:29:09.080 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 3>I think the Chiefs wess Travis Kelsey.

0:29:13.480 --> 0:29:15.920
<v Speaker 2>Right, But that's but Mark Andrews isn't coming back, buddy,

0:29:16.760 --> 0:29:19.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's the that's the problem. I mean, that's

0:29:19.560 --> 0:29:22.280
<v Speaker 2>the I mean, how would the Chiefs look if Tyreek

0:29:22.320 --> 0:29:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Kilber on the team. He's not He's not coming back

0:29:25.120 --> 0:29:29.720
<v Speaker 2>like the I mean, the Mark Andrews is done. And

0:29:30.720 --> 0:29:33.880
<v Speaker 2>here is a yeah, I mean he's on ir They

0:29:34.000 --> 0:29:37.040
<v Speaker 2>they they seem to think they initially said his season

0:29:37.160 --> 0:29:39.480
<v Speaker 2>was over. Now they seem to be holding out hope

0:29:39.480 --> 0:29:41.920
<v Speaker 2>that he could come back late in the playoffs. I

0:29:41.960 --> 0:29:45.480
<v Speaker 2>don't buy that. And here is a sneaky thing when

0:29:45.480 --> 0:29:49.760
<v Speaker 2>it comes to the Chiefs versus the Ravens. I'm gonna

0:29:49.920 --> 0:29:54.760
<v Speaker 2>so right now everyone would say, well, yeah, they don't

0:29:54.760 --> 0:29:58.040
<v Speaker 2>have Mark Andrews, but the Chiefs have nobody like Zay

0:29:58.120 --> 0:30:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Flowers if you take out Kelsey. Sure about that. Rookie

0:30:02.640 --> 0:30:07.720
<v Speaker 2>wide receivers a Flowers has six hundred yards ten yards

0:30:07.760 --> 0:30:12.520
<v Speaker 2>per catch and two touchdowns. Rookie wide receivers A Flowers

0:30:12.800 --> 0:30:17.520
<v Speaker 2>six hundred yards ten yards per catch, two receiving touchdowns.

0:30:18.240 --> 0:30:23.240
<v Speaker 2>Rookie receiver Rashi Rice five hundred and twenty five yards,

0:30:24.000 --> 0:30:28.640
<v Speaker 2>twelve yards per catch, five touchdowns, one fewer game because

0:30:28.640 --> 0:30:31.120
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens haven't had the bye. I say that to

0:30:31.160 --> 0:30:35.520
<v Speaker 2>say this, the Chief's biggest question is their receiving core.

0:30:36.240 --> 0:30:39.680
<v Speaker 2>The Ravens' biggest edge on the Chiefs is supposed to

0:30:39.680 --> 0:30:43.680
<v Speaker 2>be their receiving corp. The Ravens excellent tight end is

0:30:43.720 --> 0:30:46.400
<v Speaker 2>done for the year. The Chief's excellent tight end is

0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:50.440
<v Speaker 2>coming off one hundred yard game the Ravens star rookie

0:30:50.520 --> 0:30:56.000
<v Speaker 2>wide receiver has put up. I would argue slightly, it's

0:30:56.120 --> 0:31:00.280
<v Speaker 2>in the margins less productive season than the Chiefs hookie

0:31:00.280 --> 0:31:05.560
<v Speaker 2>wide receiver despite way more opportunities. And so I think

0:31:05.560 --> 0:31:10.920
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens offense is concerning. And as far as we

0:31:10.960 --> 0:31:13.520
<v Speaker 2>can show you their schedules the rest of the way,

0:31:14.120 --> 0:31:18.720
<v Speaker 2>let's just say the Chiefs lose to the Bills. Just

0:31:19.240 --> 0:31:23.120
<v Speaker 2>assign the Chiefs a loss to the Bills. In order

0:31:23.200 --> 0:31:26.120
<v Speaker 2>to be the one seed, the Ravens have to run

0:31:26.160 --> 0:31:29.520
<v Speaker 2>the table. If the Ravens and Chiefs finish with the

0:31:29.560 --> 0:31:33.680
<v Speaker 2>same record, the Chiefs are the one seed. So the

0:31:33.760 --> 0:31:36.760
<v Speaker 2>Ravens will have to not only handle the Rams, but

0:31:36.800 --> 0:31:40.120
<v Speaker 2>then beat the Jags in Jacksonville, beat the Niners in

0:31:40.240 --> 0:31:44.560
<v Speaker 2>San Francisco, beat the Dolphins at home, and a divisional

0:31:44.600 --> 0:31:47.400
<v Speaker 2>matchup where the Steelers might playoff life might be on

0:31:47.480 --> 0:31:50.160
<v Speaker 2>the line. They have to run the table there. And

0:31:50.240 --> 0:31:52.760
<v Speaker 2>if the Chiefs run the table, and by the way,

0:31:53.160 --> 0:31:57.080
<v Speaker 2>they are favorites in every game left on their schedule,

0:31:57.400 --> 0:32:00.240
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens can't be the one seed. If they both

0:32:00.280 --> 0:32:03.160
<v Speaker 2>finish fourteen and three, the Chiefs are the one seed.

0:32:03.400 --> 0:32:06.360
<v Speaker 2>If they both finish thirteen and four, the Chiefs are

0:32:06.360 --> 0:32:08.920
<v Speaker 2>the one seed. So in order for the Ravens to

0:32:08.920 --> 0:32:11.320
<v Speaker 2>be the one seed, they're gonna have to run the table.

0:32:11.600 --> 0:32:14.640
<v Speaker 2>They're not going to run the table. And this is

0:32:14.680 --> 0:32:17.280
<v Speaker 2>why I told you guys earlier in the year the

0:32:17.360 --> 0:32:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs beating the Jaguars straight up was critical. They have

0:32:21.000 --> 0:32:24.080
<v Speaker 2>the head dead tiebreaker. Beating the Dolphins straight up as critical.

0:32:24.120 --> 0:32:27.080
<v Speaker 2>They have the head dead tiebreaker. They never play the Ravens,

0:32:27.280 --> 0:32:30.360
<v Speaker 2>so the tiebreaker comes down to conference record. The Ravens

0:32:30.400 --> 0:32:35.360
<v Speaker 2>have three AFC losses the Chiefs have won. So no,

0:32:35.760 --> 0:32:38.680
<v Speaker 2>I do not see a scenario where there isn't the

0:32:38.800 --> 0:32:43.440
<v Speaker 2>Arrowhead Invitational and the Ravens. The Ravens defense has been excellent,

0:32:43.440 --> 0:32:46.760
<v Speaker 2>but so is the Chiefs. I yeah, and that Ravens

0:32:46.840 --> 0:32:51.800
<v Speaker 2>offensive performance. Here's the thing. I was watching Sunday night football.

0:32:52.280 --> 0:32:56.200
<v Speaker 2>The Ravens were up thirteen to three, the Chargers had

0:32:56.240 --> 0:32:59.600
<v Speaker 2>done nothing. It was midway through the third quarter, and

0:32:59.680 --> 0:33:02.920
<v Speaker 2>I bet the Chargers to win the game outright live

0:33:03.360 --> 0:33:06.400
<v Speaker 2>at plus six point eighty. Now they ended up losing.

0:33:06.440 --> 0:33:09.600
<v Speaker 2>I lost the bet, but my point was, I was like, Oh,

0:33:10.120 --> 0:33:13.560
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens will absolutely find a way to have the

0:33:13.640 --> 0:33:16.520
<v Speaker 2>Chargers be right back in this at the end, which

0:33:16.560 --> 0:33:18.840
<v Speaker 2>they were, and now the charge it was two teams

0:33:18.880 --> 0:33:21.720
<v Speaker 2>that love finding ways to keep things close when they

0:33:21.760 --> 0:33:24.200
<v Speaker 2>shouldn't be, and the Chargers couldn't put it away. But

0:33:24.320 --> 0:33:30.040
<v Speaker 2>I I do not look at the Ravens as the

0:33:31.200 --> 0:33:34.240
<v Speaker 2>as a juggernaut. I just don't. They have an excellent

0:33:34.280 --> 0:33:38.600
<v Speaker 2>defense and Lamar can be dynamic. But I didn't think

0:33:38.680 --> 0:33:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Lamar played very well in that Chargers game. I don't

0:33:41.240 --> 0:33:43.640
<v Speaker 2>think Lamar has played that well since the Lions game.

0:33:44.200 --> 0:33:48.640
<v Speaker 2>And so no, I just I'm not buying the Ravens

0:33:48.480 --> 0:33:50.040
<v Speaker 2>a super Bowl team.

0:33:50.320 --> 0:33:52.240
<v Speaker 3>So I was just thinking there was some time earlier

0:33:52.240 --> 0:33:54.280
<v Speaker 3>this year where you said they scare you or something,

0:33:54.600 --> 0:33:55.160
<v Speaker 3>and I think.

0:33:55.200 --> 0:33:58.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean the Lions game. I mean, they annihilated

0:33:59.000 --> 0:34:02.160
<v Speaker 2>the Lions. But it's also true as this, they have

0:34:02.480 --> 0:34:07.640
<v Speaker 2>annihilated their three NFC opponents this year. NFC teams that

0:34:07.680 --> 0:34:10.600
<v Speaker 2>see Lamar once every four years cannot deal with it.

0:34:11.120 --> 0:34:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Against AFC teams, they've been good, but not great, and

0:34:14.400 --> 0:34:15.520
<v Speaker 2>they've blown some games.

0:34:15.560 --> 0:34:18.680
<v Speaker 3>All right, next, all right, so the Prince retained his

0:34:18.880 --> 0:34:23.040
<v Speaker 3>throne against CJ. Stroud but kind of barely might have

0:34:23.080 --> 0:34:26.839
<v Speaker 3>gotten the one, but CJ Stroud definitely outplayed him. How

0:34:26.880 --> 0:34:28.840
<v Speaker 3>close are we to seeing a new monarch in the

0:34:28.880 --> 0:34:30.919
<v Speaker 3>AFC South? Pretty close?

0:34:30.920 --> 0:34:33.719
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I don't hold on, I don't so I'm not

0:34:33.800 --> 0:34:36.239
<v Speaker 2>gonna say anything bad about c J. Stroud, but I'm

0:34:36.280 --> 0:34:43.279
<v Speaker 2>also not gonna let just the misinformation go without being

0:34:45.480 --> 0:34:48.279
<v Speaker 2>responded to. I mean, I don't know that you can

0:34:48.360 --> 0:34:53.560
<v Speaker 2>say CJ. Stroud clearly outplayed Trevor. Trevor had three hundred

0:34:53.560 --> 0:34:59.000
<v Speaker 2>and sixty four yards passing and three touchdowns and two touchdowns.

0:34:59.040 --> 0:35:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Pardon me, see had three hundred and four yards passing

0:35:03.200 --> 0:35:06.160
<v Speaker 2>and three touchdowns because he had the rushing touchdown as

0:35:06.200 --> 0:35:09.440
<v Speaker 2>well as Trevor. Okay, I mean you I'll buy it.

0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:12.840
<v Speaker 2>That's fine now that I look at it again, because

0:35:12.880 --> 0:35:15.480
<v Speaker 2>he didn't turn the ball over and Trevor did. Okay,

0:35:15.560 --> 0:35:18.880
<v Speaker 2>you know what. That's I thought both quarterbacks played excellent

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:20.799
<v Speaker 2>in the game. That's why I said I'm not gonna

0:35:20.840 --> 0:35:24.520
<v Speaker 2>knock CJ. Stroud. But to answer the question, is there

0:35:24.560 --> 0:35:26.919
<v Speaker 2>a chance that CJ. Stroud ends up being the best

0:35:26.960 --> 0:35:30.360
<v Speaker 2>quarterback in the AFC South, Yeah, of course. Listen, I

0:35:30.440 --> 0:35:33.680
<v Speaker 2>think Trevor's awesome. CJ. Stroud is having one of the

0:35:33.719 --> 0:35:37.160
<v Speaker 2>greatest rookie seasons ever. I'm not gonna put a ceiling

0:35:37.239 --> 0:35:40.880
<v Speaker 2>on and he he had one of the best passes

0:35:40.920 --> 0:35:45.400
<v Speaker 2>of the year, overturned on a questionable penalty for the

0:35:45.440 --> 0:35:47.919
<v Speaker 2>second straight week, or it might have been two times

0:35:47.920 --> 0:35:50.440
<v Speaker 2>the last three weeks. The touchdown pass he threw a

0:35:50.480 --> 0:35:54.680
<v Speaker 2>few weeks ago got called back. That was an absolute dime.

0:35:55.160 --> 0:35:57.440
<v Speaker 2>And then he threw a seventy yard bomb in the

0:35:57.480 --> 0:35:59.759
<v Speaker 2>air to Tank Dell that got called back. I think

0:35:59.760 --> 0:36:02.640
<v Speaker 2>see awesome. Also, did you see what Trevor said when

0:36:02.640 --> 0:36:07.040
<v Speaker 2>he was asked about the rivalry and about one of

0:36:07.040 --> 0:36:10.520
<v Speaker 2>the reporters said to him, like, hey, is it cool

0:36:10.560 --> 0:36:13.399
<v Speaker 2>for you that there's another great quarterback in the AFC South.

0:36:13.440 --> 0:36:15.920
<v Speaker 2>You guys are gonna have this going for years, and

0:36:15.960 --> 0:36:18.600
<v Speaker 2>Trevor was like, no, I want the teams in my

0:36:18.640 --> 0:36:22.160
<v Speaker 2>division to be as bad as possible. I'm not glad

0:36:22.239 --> 0:36:25.400
<v Speaker 2>he's here. I mean, CJ. I mean, it was a

0:36:25.480 --> 0:36:29.520
<v Speaker 2>very honest answer. CJ's great, though, so and I think

0:36:29.560 --> 0:36:31.640
<v Speaker 2>the Texans are gonna make the playoffs. That was a

0:36:31.840 --> 0:36:35.040
<v Speaker 2>massive win for the Jags. Though they lose that game,

0:36:35.920 --> 0:36:38.880
<v Speaker 2>they're in second place in the division because they'd be

0:36:38.960 --> 0:36:41.319
<v Speaker 2>seven and four, the Texans be seven and four, and

0:36:41.400 --> 0:36:44.719
<v Speaker 2>the Texans would have swept them. Now they're in a

0:36:44.760 --> 0:36:49.560
<v Speaker 2>spot where it is just they're in such a strong

0:36:49.640 --> 0:36:53.680
<v Speaker 2>position because they not only do they have the two

0:36:53.760 --> 0:36:58.160
<v Speaker 2>game lead, but they also have the benefit of let

0:36:58.200 --> 0:37:00.640
<v Speaker 2>me make sure I have this right. The Texans have

0:37:00.680 --> 0:37:04.880
<v Speaker 2>two divisional losses and the Jags have four divisional wins,

0:37:05.400 --> 0:37:09.280
<v Speaker 2>so if they finish with the same record, the odds

0:37:09.320 --> 0:37:12.600
<v Speaker 2>are the Jags will win the tiebreaker. So the Texans

0:37:12.640 --> 0:37:16.080
<v Speaker 2>to win the division probably have to finish with more

0:37:16.200 --> 0:37:20.440
<v Speaker 2>wins than Jacksonville does. The Texans are six and five,

0:37:21.120 --> 0:37:24.160
<v Speaker 2>even if the Texans go five and one down the stretch,

0:37:24.400 --> 0:37:27.720
<v Speaker 2>which would be very difficult, and they get to eleven

0:37:27.760 --> 0:37:31.800
<v Speaker 2>and six. The Jags would then have to down the stretch.

0:37:31.840 --> 0:37:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Pard me go two and four, and they're not going

0:37:35.080 --> 0:37:39.360
<v Speaker 2>to The Jags still have on the schedule home for

0:37:39.440 --> 0:37:43.080
<v Speaker 2>the Bengals and Jake Browning, then two tough games at

0:37:43.120 --> 0:37:46.279
<v Speaker 2>the Browns home for the Ravens, at the Bucks kind

0:37:46.320 --> 0:37:49.880
<v Speaker 2>of tough home for the Panthers, and at the Titans.

0:37:50.400 --> 0:37:53.799
<v Speaker 2>So even if the Jags play poorly, they're going to

0:37:53.840 --> 0:37:57.439
<v Speaker 2>get to eleven wins. So they in my opinion, locked

0:37:57.520 --> 0:38:00.560
<v Speaker 2>up the division with that win. To huge win for Jackjacksonville.

0:38:00.880 --> 0:38:04.480
<v Speaker 2>Josh Allen defensive end. Josh Allen played great. Now the

0:38:04.560 --> 0:38:08.680
<v Speaker 2>downside for Jacksonville, their left tackle Cam Robinson, God dog it,

0:38:09.120 --> 0:38:11.279
<v Speaker 2>sorry but our internet's taking hits. But you guys and

0:38:11.320 --> 0:38:14.919
<v Speaker 2>still hear me. They're left tackle Cam Robinson got put

0:38:14.960 --> 0:38:17.160
<v Speaker 2>on IR, which is obviously a problem for them.

0:38:17.200 --> 0:38:21.120
<v Speaker 3>All right, next, All right, So Frank Reich was fired

0:38:21.400 --> 0:38:24.920
<v Speaker 3>after eleven games in Carolina. So it's kind of weird

0:38:24.960 --> 0:38:27.919
<v Speaker 3>because he was really high on Stroud and he wanted

0:38:27.960 --> 0:38:31.040
<v Speaker 3>Stroud over Young. The Panthers owner now claims that they

0:38:31.080 --> 0:38:33.600
<v Speaker 3>wanted to trade for the number two pick to get Stroud,

0:38:33.920 --> 0:38:36.919
<v Speaker 3>but then their front office got behind behind Young at one.

0:38:37.560 --> 0:38:39.799
<v Speaker 3>We're gonna show up maybe, I think a tweet for

0:38:39.880 --> 0:38:43.200
<v Speaker 3>those watching on YouTube, this.

0:38:43.239 --> 0:38:46.520
<v Speaker 2>Is what Albert Brier wrote. Originally we were gonna go

0:38:46.560 --> 0:38:48.520
<v Speaker 2>to the number two pick. We thought we'd get CJ

0:38:48.680 --> 0:38:51.280
<v Speaker 2>because we thought the Texans were gonna pick Bryce, and listen,

0:38:51.320 --> 0:38:53.279
<v Speaker 2>we preferred Bryce. He was a number one pick. We

0:38:53.280 --> 0:38:56.279
<v Speaker 2>had a lot of conviction. That's from Dave Tepper. So

0:38:57.080 --> 0:38:58.239
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to spend a lot of time on

0:38:58.239 --> 0:39:01.080
<v Speaker 2>the Panthers. Here's the deal their show.

0:39:02.000 --> 0:39:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:39:03.040 --> 0:39:07.160
<v Speaker 2>They they traded away this year's pick, which is gonna

0:39:07.239 --> 0:39:09.880
<v Speaker 2>end up being the Caleb Williams pick, so they could

0:39:09.960 --> 0:39:12.279
<v Speaker 2>move all the way up to number one, and they

0:39:12.280 --> 0:39:15.399
<v Speaker 2>took the wrong quarterback. And now Dave Tepper, I don't

0:39:15.400 --> 0:39:17.200
<v Speaker 2>know who's gonna want to work for him because he

0:39:17.320 --> 0:39:21.160
<v Speaker 2>keeps firing coaches. He keeps hiring and firing coaches. And

0:39:21.239 --> 0:39:22.959
<v Speaker 2>to not give for a listen, I don't think Frank

0:39:23.000 --> 0:39:25.319
<v Speaker 2>Reich did a good job, but to not give him

0:39:25.320 --> 0:39:28.440
<v Speaker 2>a full season. You think you're gonna go get Ben Johnson.

0:39:28.800 --> 0:39:31.400
<v Speaker 2>You think you're gonna get the top coaching candidate. Of course, not.

0:39:31.680 --> 0:39:34.960
<v Speaker 2>They're gonna be out in the wilderness for a while. Man. Uh,

0:39:35.040 --> 0:39:37.080
<v Speaker 2>you guys know I didn't believe in Bryce before the

0:39:37.160 --> 0:39:39.520
<v Speaker 2>draft too small, just don't believe in it. But they

0:39:39.520 --> 0:39:41.960
<v Speaker 2>have no way to replace him. They're gonna hire a

0:39:42.280 --> 0:39:44.919
<v Speaker 2>coach who they probably is set up to fail, gonna

0:39:44.960 --> 0:39:49.440
<v Speaker 2>fire again. It's there they and they're gonna watch the pick.

0:39:51.280 --> 0:39:54.319
<v Speaker 2>Oh I hope he doesn't take that job. Oh God,

0:39:54.360 --> 0:39:57.200
<v Speaker 2>I would hope he wouldn't take that job. They be

0:39:57.200 --> 0:39:59.840
<v Speaker 2>better off staying seeing if he gets promoted in Washington.

0:40:00.000 --> 0:40:02.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't take that job. That job's got no future

0:40:02.680 --> 0:40:06.480

<v Speaker 2>in about ten minutes. But demonse, let's get right to it.

0:41:18.800 --> 0:41:20.920
<v Speaker 2>We want to talk Belichick here, so go ahead.

0:41:22.200 --> 0:41:25.240
<v Speaker 3>So mac Jones was benched again for Zappy. The Patriots

0:41:25.239 --> 0:41:27.480
<v Speaker 3>couldn't take care of business against a future Hall of

0:41:27.480 --> 0:41:31.120
<v Speaker 3>Famer Tommy DeVito. At the end of the game, Belichick

0:41:31.160 --> 0:41:33.720
<v Speaker 3>opted to go for overtime rather than get the dub.

0:41:34.239 --> 0:41:37.040
<v Speaker 3>It backfired and they missed the kick, losing the game.

0:41:37.719 --> 0:41:40.719
<v Speaker 3>What's more likely? Do you think Belichick is tanking or

0:41:40.760 --> 0:41:43.280
<v Speaker 3>he has zero faith in anybody on his team?

0:41:43.760 --> 0:41:48.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, neither The kicking the field goal. There was

0:41:49.000 --> 0:41:52.920
<v Speaker 2>not a controversial decision. It was they had a fourth

0:41:52.920 --> 0:41:58.120
<v Speaker 2>and five, which it went on the seventeen yard line

0:41:58.640 --> 0:42:01.719
<v Speaker 2>that if they with at most twenty five seconds left,

0:42:01.719 --> 0:42:03.600
<v Speaker 2>they ended up kicking the field goal at six seconds

0:42:03.600 --> 0:42:05.920
<v Speaker 2>because they let the clock run down. Going for the

0:42:06.800 --> 0:42:10.640
<v Speaker 2>going for it there would have been absolute suicide. You.

0:42:10.719 --> 0:42:13.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you have a rookie kicker that you drafted

0:42:13.239 --> 0:42:16.040
<v Speaker 2>in the fourth round. You have to kick the field

0:42:16.080 --> 0:42:18.560
<v Speaker 2>goal there? The kid just missed, and I mean the

0:42:18.640 --> 0:42:20.320
<v Speaker 2>team now you go ahead?

0:42:20.360 --> 0:42:21.799
<v Speaker 3>Is that the kicker that just get That's the kicker

0:42:21.800 --> 0:42:25.200
<v Speaker 3>that just got cut? Right? And do you.

0:42:25.160 --> 0:42:27.879
<v Speaker 2>Think no, no chance he just got cut? Did he did?

0:42:27.880 --> 0:42:29.879
<v Speaker 2>I miss that he did?

0:42:30.520 --> 0:42:32.799
<v Speaker 3>I could be wrong, But do you think you were

0:42:32.840 --> 0:42:33.840
<v Speaker 3>wrong for it? With Brady?

0:42:35.600 --> 0:42:38.239
<v Speaker 2>No, you never go for it there. I don't even

0:42:38.239 --> 0:42:40.360
<v Speaker 2>know what they're talking about. No, of course not. You

0:42:40.400 --> 0:42:42.480
<v Speaker 2>have to kick it. You're on the fifteen yard line

0:42:42.480 --> 0:42:46.800
<v Speaker 2>with thirty seconds left, you play for overtime against Tommy DeVito.

0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:49.560
<v Speaker 2>That's not the problem. The problem was starting Mac Jones,

0:42:49.960 --> 0:42:52.360
<v Speaker 2>who is a bro. Listen. People can say Zappi is

0:42:52.440 --> 0:42:56.280
<v Speaker 2>terrible and Zapi is terrible, but Mac Jones is broken

0:42:56.360 --> 0:43:00.520
<v Speaker 2>as a player, flatly broken as a player. So the listen.

0:43:00.880 --> 0:43:03.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they're tanking. I think the roster has

0:43:03.120 --> 0:43:07.120
<v Speaker 2>been terribly constructed, and I think they don't have enough talent.

0:43:07.680 --> 0:43:10.480
<v Speaker 2>And if they end up lucking into Caleb Williams, I'm

0:43:10.480 --> 0:43:12.400
<v Speaker 2>gonna be sick to my stomach. But I think the

0:43:12.440 --> 0:43:14.759
<v Speaker 2>Panthers are gonna end up the Panthers might not win

0:43:14.800 --> 0:43:17.600
<v Speaker 2>again all year, and that pick will go to the Bears.

0:43:17.640 --> 0:43:21.520
<v Speaker 2>The question is the Patriots. Right now, Patriots, Cardinals, Panthers

0:43:21.840 --> 0:43:24.560
<v Speaker 2>all have one or two wins. Everyone else now has

0:43:24.560 --> 0:43:27.520
<v Speaker 2>at least four. So the worst case scenario for the

0:43:27.520 --> 0:43:30.560
<v Speaker 2>Patriots is probably they end up with Marvin Harrison Junior,

0:43:30.600 --> 0:43:33.680
<v Speaker 2>which is not a bad scenario, but in that scenario,

0:43:33.680 --> 0:43:35.920
<v Speaker 2>they still wouldn't have a quarterback. But no, they're not tanking,

0:43:36.360 --> 0:43:37.879
<v Speaker 2>they're just not any good. All right?

0:43:37.960 --> 0:43:41.520
<v Speaker 3>Next, All right, we're playing a game. Today's this with that? Yeah,

0:43:41.600 --> 0:43:44.759
<v Speaker 3>first off, we got the Broncos, the hottest team in

0:43:44.760 --> 0:43:48.319
<v Speaker 3>the AFC, riding a five game win streak. Youve ben

0:43:48.360 --> 0:43:50.600
<v Speaker 3>calling Denver and Russ Cook for a while now, but

0:43:50.640 --> 0:43:52.680
<v Speaker 3>it seems like they may have figured some stuff out

0:43:53.160 --> 0:43:56.320
<v Speaker 3>going forward. The Broncos are dangerous or cooked.

0:43:57.480 --> 0:44:02.280
<v Speaker 2>No, they're frauds. I mean this. I really wonder sometimes

0:44:02.320 --> 0:44:05.240
<v Speaker 2>if people watch games like am I the only person

0:44:05.360 --> 0:44:09.000
<v Speaker 2>watching games? People are like oh Russell Wilson twenty touchdowns,

0:44:09.000 --> 0:44:11.240
<v Speaker 2>four picks. Dude threw for one hundred and thirty five yards.

0:44:11.560 --> 0:44:14.520
<v Speaker 2>His coach clearly doesn't trust him. He's averaging less than

0:44:14.560 --> 0:44:17.560
<v Speaker 2>two hundred yards per game this season. Now, it's interesting

0:44:17.600 --> 0:44:20.239
<v Speaker 2>that they've pulled They pulled themselves out of the spiral

0:44:20.320 --> 0:44:23.520
<v Speaker 2>from one to five, but I think they probably lose

0:44:23.800 --> 0:44:26.520
<v Speaker 2>their next three games. Now, in fairness, I thought they

0:44:26.560 --> 0:44:28.560
<v Speaker 2>were gonna lose to the Browns, but I also think

0:44:28.560 --> 0:44:30.680
<v Speaker 2>they would have lost the Browns if DTR didn't get

0:44:30.760 --> 0:44:33.800
<v Speaker 2>knocked out of that football game. They at the Texans,

0:44:33.880 --> 0:44:36.960
<v Speaker 2>at the Chargers, at the Lions. They're gonna be underdogs

0:44:37.000 --> 0:44:39.080
<v Speaker 2>in all three of those games. So I don't think

0:44:39.120 --> 0:44:41.200
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna make those.

0:44:41.320 --> 0:44:44.120
<v Speaker 3>Those Browns right, Like, is they're the best defense they're

0:44:44.120 --> 0:44:45.239
<v Speaker 3>gonna play for the rest of the year.

0:44:46.880 --> 0:44:49.120
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, Browns might have the best defense in football.

0:44:49.120 --> 0:44:51.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't listen. This is one of those things. If

0:44:51.520 --> 0:44:55.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I'm not gonna be wrong. There's

0:44:55.320 --> 0:44:59.240
<v Speaker 2>here's what I find interesting. Let me check this preseason

0:44:59.440 --> 0:45:04.319
<v Speaker 2>NFL win totals? Uh? And this is okay? There we go.

0:45:04.360 --> 0:45:09.520
<v Speaker 2>There it is the Broncos preseason win total. Wait, that's

0:45:09.600 --> 0:45:14.440
<v Speaker 2>not right. Hold on, how have they changed? What the

0:45:14.480 --> 0:45:16.479
<v Speaker 2>hell is this? Hold on this I have the wrong?

0:45:17.520 --> 0:45:17.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:45:18.600 --> 0:45:22.160
<v Speaker 2>This has been updated incorrectly, I guess. But let me

0:45:22.200 --> 0:45:24.319
<v Speaker 2>look and see where the Broncos were see if I

0:45:24.320 --> 0:45:26.640
<v Speaker 2>can find it. I apologize I should have had this.

0:45:26.719 --> 0:45:30.840
<v Speaker 2>Here we go the some reason this was from the

0:45:31.000 --> 0:45:35.120
<v Speaker 2>active the Broncos before the year. How many games do

0:45:35.160 --> 0:45:37.600
<v Speaker 2>you think they were projected to win before the year?

0:45:38.200 --> 0:45:40.040
<v Speaker 2>Give it a guess? Uh?

0:45:41.280 --> 0:45:43.040
<v Speaker 3>Eight or ten? Actually call it ten?

0:45:43.760 --> 0:45:46.560
<v Speaker 2>No, eight and a half. You were closer tens, a

0:45:46.680 --> 0:45:50.960
<v Speaker 2>very high number. So the Broncos are likely this year

0:45:51.640 --> 0:45:56.120
<v Speaker 2>going to finish under their win total. They're probably gonna

0:45:56.120 --> 0:45:59.719
<v Speaker 2>finish eight to nine, right around the win total eight

0:45:59.719 --> 0:46:03.880
<v Speaker 2>and nine. And because they were such a show to

0:46:03.920 --> 0:46:07.160
<v Speaker 2>start the year, people are gonna call it a massive success.

0:46:07.320 --> 0:46:10.560
<v Speaker 2>It will not be now coming and not having the

0:46:10.600 --> 0:46:14.400
<v Speaker 2>season totally go to hell after you allow seventy points

0:46:14.400 --> 0:46:16.880
<v Speaker 2>and fall to zero to three. Credit to them for that,

0:46:17.239 --> 0:46:19.960
<v Speaker 2>But this is not some dangerous, really good team. I

0:46:20.080 --> 0:46:22.239
<v Speaker 2>understand they're on a nice winning streak, and on this

0:46:22.320 --> 0:46:26.520
<v Speaker 2>winning streak they have forced fifteen turnovers. That's not sustainable.

0:46:26.840 --> 0:46:29.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't look at this as a dangerous team. If

0:46:29.120 --> 0:46:34.719
<v Speaker 2>le Broncos fans can get mad at me, man, well,

0:46:34.760 --> 0:46:38.200
<v Speaker 2>they beat the Chiefs. That's the good team they've beaten.

0:46:38.960 --> 0:46:42.240
<v Speaker 2>They beat the Packers, They're fine. They beat the Chiefs,

0:46:42.320 --> 0:46:45.440
<v Speaker 2>The Chiefs are good. They beat the Bills, who are mediocre.

0:46:45.760 --> 0:46:49.319
<v Speaker 2>They beat the Vikings, who are mediocre. The Browns in

0:46:49.400 --> 0:46:52.160
<v Speaker 2>a game their quarterback got knocked out in I mean

0:46:52.160 --> 0:46:54.040
<v Speaker 2>think it was fourteen twelve, and then the quarterback got

0:46:54.080 --> 0:46:56.319
<v Speaker 2>knocked out, Like I just the I mean, I guess

0:46:56.400 --> 0:46:58.640
<v Speaker 2>credit to them for knocking the quarterback out on an

0:46:58.640 --> 0:47:01.280
<v Speaker 2>illegal hit. I don't know what you want me to say.

0:47:01.440 --> 0:47:03.800
<v Speaker 2>People want me to be a prisoner of the moment

0:47:03.800 --> 0:47:06.919
<v Speaker 2>and be like, the Broncos are dangerous. They're not next

0:47:07.600 --> 0:47:07.960
<v Speaker 2>all right.

0:47:08.000 --> 0:47:10.760
<v Speaker 3>The Lions are rolling earlier early this year, but Jared

0:47:10.760 --> 0:47:13.160
<v Speaker 3>Goff forgot how to play mistake free football. That was

0:47:13.480 --> 0:47:15.799
<v Speaker 3>oh gosh. And they lost to the Packers on Thanksgiving.

0:47:16.320 --> 0:47:19.760
<v Speaker 3>Things in Detroit are fixable, or are they doomed.

0:47:22.000 --> 0:47:26.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, our Lions number one seed bet is doomed. That's

0:47:26.800 --> 0:47:30.040
<v Speaker 2>for sure. That I liked that bet a lot that's

0:47:30.080 --> 0:47:34.640
<v Speaker 2>now cooked. I don't want to say they're doomed, but

0:47:34.760 --> 0:47:38.360
<v Speaker 2>what's wrong with them is not fixable. It's very simple.

0:47:38.360 --> 0:47:41.240
<v Speaker 2>What's wrong with them? If you can pressure Jared Goff,

0:47:41.280 --> 0:47:46.440
<v Speaker 2>he's terrible. This is been who he's been his whole career.

0:47:46.719 --> 0:47:49.880
<v Speaker 2>And this is another one of those things that folks

0:47:49.960 --> 0:47:52.160
<v Speaker 2>just when golf, you know, golf had a stretch. He's

0:47:52.160 --> 0:47:55.040
<v Speaker 2>putting up amazing numbers and folks want to be They're like,

0:47:55.080 --> 0:47:58.360
<v Speaker 2>are you gonna apologize to Jared Goff? No, we have

0:47:58.600 --> 0:48:04.279
<v Speaker 2>known for his his whole career. If he's protected, he

0:48:04.320 --> 0:48:07.719
<v Speaker 2>can look awesome. He was the quarterback for one of

0:48:07.760 --> 0:48:10.600
<v Speaker 2>the highest scoring teams in NFL history with the Rams.

0:48:11.040 --> 0:48:13.680
<v Speaker 2>He went to a Super Bowl. We saw him last

0:48:13.719 --> 0:48:15.360
<v Speaker 2>year with the Lions on their winning streak in the

0:48:15.400 --> 0:48:20.759
<v Speaker 2>beginning of this year. When he's protected, he's excellent. The

0:48:20.960 --> 0:48:25.319
<v Speaker 2>problem is he deals with pressure. And I don't mean

0:48:25.440 --> 0:48:28.680
<v Speaker 2>like existential pressure. I mean the actual pressure of a

0:48:28.719 --> 0:48:32.080
<v Speaker 2>pass rush, worse than just about any quarterback in the NFL.

0:48:32.880 --> 0:48:35.840
<v Speaker 2>And and I know people think this is like silly

0:48:35.960 --> 0:48:39.200
<v Speaker 2>old scout stuff, but you saw it first had on Thanksgiving.

0:48:39.480 --> 0:48:43.680
<v Speaker 2>He has tiny hands and he cannot hold onto the football.

0:48:43.719 --> 0:48:47.280
<v Speaker 2>If he gets hit, that stuff matters, and so that's

0:48:47.360 --> 0:48:50.680
<v Speaker 2>not fixable. The reason I was high on the Lions

0:48:51.400 --> 0:48:54.719
<v Speaker 2>was if they got home field and he could play

0:48:54.719 --> 0:48:59.920
<v Speaker 2>in a weather controlled dome and had one less playoff

0:49:00.280 --> 0:49:03.160
<v Speaker 2>to play and they could block it up. That Lion's

0:49:03.200 --> 0:49:07.080
<v Speaker 2>offense is dynamic, and the defense I thought could be

0:49:07.280 --> 0:49:10.600
<v Speaker 2>just good enough. But the defense has regressed, and the

0:49:10.600 --> 0:49:12.719
<v Speaker 2>offensive line the last couple of weeks has gotten its

0:49:12.719 --> 0:49:15.000
<v Speaker 2>butt kicked. And say the last couple weeks, but a

0:49:15.000 --> 0:49:16.920
<v Speaker 2>couple times in the last few weeks has gotten its

0:49:16.920 --> 0:49:20.120
<v Speaker 2>butt kicked. And all of a sudden, he's throwing three

0:49:20.160 --> 0:49:23.320
<v Speaker 2>picks against Chicago, He's fumbling three times against the Packers,

0:49:23.680 --> 0:49:27.359
<v Speaker 2>gets annihilated against the Ravens. Like there's a problem. It's

0:49:27.400 --> 0:49:30.400
<v Speaker 2>just flatly a problem. So I don't think they're doomed.

0:49:30.440 --> 0:49:33.399
<v Speaker 2>They're a good team, but this is not a team

0:49:33.480 --> 0:49:37.480
<v Speaker 2>that's if you can pressure him, he's gonna fall apart.

0:49:37.600 --> 0:49:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Next all right, my favorite Draywan is returning after his

0:49:42.000 --> 0:49:44.839
<v Speaker 3>five game suspension, but it doesn't really seem like he's

0:49:44.880 --> 0:49:47.080
<v Speaker 3>learned his lesson. He said, I'm going to be me

0:49:47.239 --> 0:49:50.279
<v Speaker 3>no matter what. So players should probably start working on

0:49:50.320 --> 0:49:53.520
<v Speaker 3>their self defense skills. It's more likely that Dreywan will

0:49:53.520 --> 0:49:56.120
<v Speaker 3>get suspended again or clean up his act. I mean,

0:49:56.320 --> 0:49:57.440
<v Speaker 3>second one's not an option.

0:49:58.680 --> 0:50:00.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, he just this is this total lack

0:50:00.920 --> 0:50:04.920
<v Speaker 2>of accountability and this whole idea that where he's like,

0:50:05.000 --> 0:50:07.440
<v Speaker 2>he's like, listen, I paid my price. I got suspended

0:50:07.480 --> 0:50:09.400
<v Speaker 2>for a game of the finals, but you've had like

0:50:09.640 --> 0:50:13.919
<v Speaker 2>nine egregious incidents since then. Like I Draymond's an all

0:50:13.920 --> 0:50:16.600
<v Speaker 2>time great player and he's a legendary player. He is

0:50:16.640 --> 0:50:20.600
<v Speaker 2>also all time first team lack of self awareness and

0:50:21.239 --> 0:50:25.000
<v Speaker 2>just the failure to take accountability and what Gobert said,

0:50:25.160 --> 0:50:28.400
<v Speaker 2>man about if Steph's not there, he doesn't want to play.

0:50:28.440 --> 0:50:30.719
<v Speaker 2>The numbers back that up. And that was a that

0:50:30.880 --> 0:50:34.959
<v Speaker 2>was a cutting insult by the Frenchman. All right, last one,

0:50:35.000 --> 0:50:36.279
<v Speaker 2>go ahead.

0:50:35.960 --> 0:50:38.920
<v Speaker 3>All right. Last week, he went on Mina Kaimes podcast

0:50:38.960 --> 0:50:42.000
<v Speaker 3>and roasted sports media for being so in on pointless

0:50:42.000 --> 0:50:45.759
<v Speaker 3>Thanksgiving topics that the take blew up, but maybe not

0:50:45.840 --> 0:50:47.680
<v Speaker 3>in the way that you'd want. So let's take a

0:50:47.719 --> 0:50:51.279
<v Speaker 3>look at three tweets We're gonna show you on YouTube.

0:50:52.800 --> 0:50:56.200
<v Speaker 2>When did Nick writ start looking like Shia Shia Labouf

0:50:56.360 --> 0:51:00.279
<v Speaker 2>cosplaying as Adam Driver? That was good? Nick right looks

0:51:00.320 --> 0:51:03.440
<v Speaker 2>like a homeless magician? That was pretty good. And the

0:51:03.480 --> 0:51:05.600
<v Speaker 2>best one was why does Nick Wright look like he

0:51:05.719 --> 0:51:08.799
<v Speaker 2>sells used cars to doth Rockis? All right? That's a

0:51:09.000 --> 0:51:12.960
<v Speaker 2>good I mean, those are all really funny. I So

0:51:13.080 --> 0:51:16.520
<v Speaker 2>here's the thing. I thought these were really well done.

0:51:17.000 --> 0:51:19.319
<v Speaker 2>I thought that the commenters make because I was still

0:51:19.360 --> 0:51:21.960
<v Speaker 2>wearing my suit from TV, but I was in like

0:51:22.040 --> 0:51:26.640
<v Speaker 2>a windowless room, I had a smudge camera. My hair

0:51:26.840 --> 0:51:29.080
<v Speaker 2>was even more of a mess than usual, So I

0:51:29.120 --> 0:51:31.880
<v Speaker 2>looked a little odd on Mina's podcast. I'll take that.

0:51:32.040 --> 0:51:34.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm fine with that. In those insults, I thought they

0:51:34.120 --> 0:51:37.080
<v Speaker 2>were really well done. I thought the homeless magician line

0:51:37.160 --> 0:51:41.000
<v Speaker 2>was legit hilarious, and the cells used cars to doth

0:51:41.120 --> 0:51:43.760
<v Speaker 2>rockis was one of the most unique insults I've ever heard.

0:51:43.960 --> 0:51:52.440
<v Speaker 2>We answer your chat questions next What's Right? All Right?

0:51:52.520 --> 0:51:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back in episode one ninety six, What's right with

0:51:54.880 --> 0:51:56.840

0:52:41.680 --> 0:52:43.799
<v Speaker 2>let's read some of these listener questions and then get

0:52:43.800 --> 0:52:44.160
<v Speaker 2>out of here.

0:52:44.200 --> 0:52:47.279
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead, all right, Billy Ray asked you called Rock

0:52:47.320 --> 0:52:49.719
<v Speaker 3>Party a sports car because he's great when everything is

0:52:49.760 --> 0:52:53.000
<v Speaker 3>going well, but isn't good when things aren't perfect, can't

0:52:53.040 --> 0:52:55.120
<v Speaker 3>the Samy said for the Cowboys.

0:52:56.320 --> 0:53:00.439
<v Speaker 2>Uh possibly, yeah, I mean I think that's uh right.

0:53:01.200 --> 0:53:04.800
<v Speaker 2>Here's the thing. I don't think the Cowboys need everything

0:53:04.840 --> 0:53:08.319
<v Speaker 2>to be perfect. But right now, what is true is

0:53:08.880 --> 0:53:15.359
<v Speaker 2>they have not played their best. Well here, I want

0:53:15.360 --> 0:53:18.879
<v Speaker 2>to be honestly, I thought the Cowboys played really well

0:53:18.920 --> 0:53:21.960
<v Speaker 2>against Philly. They lost, but they went to Philly. The

0:53:22.040 --> 0:53:24.520
<v Speaker 2>game came down to a couple of key plays. Philly

0:53:24.520 --> 0:53:26.960
<v Speaker 2>made them, Cowboys didn't. But I don't look at the

0:53:27.000 --> 0:53:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Cowboys Eagles as like, oh, the Cowboys can't win that matchup.

0:53:30.000 --> 0:53:31.640
<v Speaker 2>They split with them last year. I think they're gonna

0:53:31.640 --> 0:53:33.879
<v Speaker 2>split with them this year. Dak has cooked that second

0:53:33.920 --> 0:53:37.120
<v Speaker 2>eary for a while. In my opinion, the Cowboys have

0:53:37.160 --> 0:53:39.480
<v Speaker 2>played one truly terrible game all year, and it was

0:53:39.560 --> 0:53:42.080
<v Speaker 2>arguably their biggest game. It was the game against the Niners,

0:53:42.080 --> 0:53:43.960
<v Speaker 2>because the Niners knocked them out of the playoffs last

0:53:43.960 --> 0:53:47.399
<v Speaker 2>couple of years. But I think the Cowboys are right

0:53:47.440 --> 0:53:51.000
<v Speaker 2>now a touch underrated. I think that the way they

0:53:51.040 --> 0:53:55.160
<v Speaker 2>have blown out these teams has to account for something.

0:53:55.960 --> 0:54:02.040
<v Speaker 2>And the prety point that I'm making is we party

0:54:02.120 --> 0:54:06.319
<v Speaker 2>has had multiple opportunities under the exact circumstances that when

0:54:06.320 --> 0:54:08.040
<v Speaker 2>people are like, what do you want to see from him?

0:54:08.080 --> 0:54:10.200
<v Speaker 2>I laid out exactly what I wanted to see from him.

0:54:10.360 --> 0:54:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Then he had three straight opportunities in those circumstances, and

0:54:13.480 --> 0:54:16.759
<v Speaker 2>he came with shortened all three. So it's a little

0:54:16.800 --> 0:54:20.640
<v Speaker 2>apples to oranges for the Cowboys. But yeah, both both that.

0:54:20.920 --> 0:54:23.640
<v Speaker 2>It's why right now the Eagles should be considered the

0:54:23.680 --> 0:54:26.360
<v Speaker 2>clear cut favorites in the conference. I know I picked Dallas,

0:54:26.560 --> 0:54:28.560
<v Speaker 2>but the Eagles have earned that up to this point,

0:54:28.560 --> 0:54:28.880
<v Speaker 2>all right.

0:54:28.960 --> 0:54:34.000
<v Speaker 3>Next, Connor Leland asked, is there any way Kansas City

0:54:34.040 --> 0:54:36.600
<v Speaker 3>trades multiple draft picks to get into the top ten

0:54:36.640 --> 0:54:39.600
<v Speaker 3>this year to draft brock Bawers and have him have

0:54:39.680 --> 0:54:42.320
<v Speaker 3>him learn under Kelsey? Would you love to see Mahomes

0:54:42.560 --> 0:54:43.840
<v Speaker 3>or Mahomes Bowers connection.

0:54:45.160 --> 0:54:47.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, listen, I think that would be a

0:54:47.239 --> 0:54:51.880
<v Speaker 2>terrible idea. You don't the Chiefs are Listen. Brock Bowers

0:54:51.880 --> 0:54:53.680
<v Speaker 2>looks like he's gonna be awesome, And you guys know,

0:54:53.760 --> 0:54:56.120
<v Speaker 2>last year I liked the idea of them of drafting

0:54:56.120 --> 0:54:58.480
<v Speaker 2>a tight end relatively with one of their first or

0:54:58.520 --> 0:55:00.799
<v Speaker 2>second picks, so we can learn under Kelse's I understand that,

0:55:01.160 --> 0:55:03.480
<v Speaker 2>but the Chiefs do not are not in a position,

0:55:04.080 --> 0:55:07.640
<v Speaker 2>in my opinion, we're trading up. You'd probably have to

0:55:07.680 --> 0:55:10.120
<v Speaker 2>trade multiple first round picks to get up high enough

0:55:10.120 --> 0:55:15.160
<v Speaker 2>to draft draft Rock Bowers, and they need cheap, cost

0:55:15.239 --> 0:55:19.040
<v Speaker 2>controlled talent that can start. And they've done so well

0:55:19.080 --> 0:55:21.560
<v Speaker 2>in the draft that I don't want them trading multiple

0:55:21.560 --> 0:55:24.560
<v Speaker 2>picks for just one guy. So I would not endorse that,

0:55:24.640 --> 0:55:27.480
<v Speaker 2>even though I understand. Yeah, Bowers I think would be amazing,

0:55:27.800 --> 0:55:30.960
<v Speaker 2>and I think but also the super highly drafted tight

0:55:31.080 --> 0:55:34.080
<v Speaker 2>ends as of late have not panned out necessarily the

0:55:34.120 --> 0:55:36.080
<v Speaker 2>way people thought they were going to.

0:55:36.200 --> 0:55:40.800
<v Speaker 3>All Right, Next, Majin Bousha asked who gets who gets

0:55:40.800 --> 0:55:44.279
<v Speaker 3>in for the last spot in the AFC? The Chargers, Bills, Texans,

0:55:44.400 --> 0:55:45.400
<v Speaker 3>Colts are Browns.

0:55:46.480 --> 0:55:48.920
<v Speaker 2>Listen, I the I mean the Chargers are done. I

0:55:49.160 --> 0:55:53.200
<v Speaker 2>I think that the AFC playoffs and I'll even give

0:55:53.239 --> 0:55:58.439
<v Speaker 2>you the the uh order. I think it's gonna fall

0:55:58.560 --> 0:56:01.880
<v Speaker 2>like this. I think it is going to be Kansas

0:56:01.920 --> 0:56:07.719
<v Speaker 2>City one, Jacksonville two, Miami three, Baltimore four as your

0:56:07.719 --> 0:56:14.080
<v Speaker 2>divisional winners, Pittsburgh five as your top wild card, Cleveland six,

0:56:14.280 --> 0:56:18.640
<v Speaker 2>and Houston seven. I think Houston's gonna be the last

0:56:18.640 --> 0:56:20.279
<v Speaker 2>team in all right.

0:56:20.440 --> 0:56:25.560
<v Speaker 3>Next football, CF Candy asked h Nick, what do you

0:56:25.600 --> 0:56:28.200
<v Speaker 3>think the Bears should do this offseason? With the talent

0:56:28.280 --> 0:56:30.680
<v Speaker 3>on that roster and the level of draft capital they have,

0:56:30.719 --> 0:56:33.480
<v Speaker 3>they could be amazing next year. What is the best way?

0:56:35.960 --> 0:56:39.280
<v Speaker 2>I think they trade Justin Fields to Atlanta for Field

0:56:39.719 --> 0:56:45.120
<v Speaker 2>for Atlanta's second round pick. I think they draft Caleb

0:56:45.320 --> 0:56:48.839
<v Speaker 2>at number one with the pick from Carolina, and I

0:56:48.880 --> 0:56:53.040
<v Speaker 2>think they hold an auction for their own pick, which

0:56:53.080 --> 0:56:55.399
<v Speaker 2>will probably be five or six, and try to turn

0:56:55.440 --> 0:56:59.200
<v Speaker 2>that into another year with multiple first round picks. That's

0:56:59.239 --> 0:57:01.640
<v Speaker 2>what I think they should. I think you draft Caleb,

0:57:01.960 --> 0:57:04.680
<v Speaker 2>you trade Justin for a second round a high second

0:57:04.760 --> 0:57:07.719
<v Speaker 2>round pick from Atlanta, which I think would I think

0:57:07.760 --> 0:57:09.680
<v Speaker 2>it would be a good fit for him there. I

0:57:09.719 --> 0:57:13.080
<v Speaker 2>think him with those weapons in a dome on turf

0:57:13.120 --> 0:57:17.400
<v Speaker 2>would be great and you could, you know, stay at

0:57:17.480 --> 0:57:20.840
<v Speaker 2>number Say they're drafting now, if they if they ended

0:57:20.920 --> 0:57:23.480
<v Speaker 2>up with the first and third pick, I'd probably just

0:57:23.520 --> 0:57:28.720
<v Speaker 2>take Caleb and Marvin Harrison Junior. But they're probably gonna

0:57:28.760 --> 0:57:31.120
<v Speaker 2>end up with like five to six. You could draft

0:57:31.120 --> 0:57:32.960
<v Speaker 2>the tackle there, but you took a tackle with the

0:57:33.040 --> 0:57:36.520
<v Speaker 2>number ten pick last year. I'd rather trade that trade

0:57:36.560 --> 0:57:39.280
<v Speaker 2>back a bit and try to acquire more draft capital.

0:57:39.320 --> 0:57:42.360
<v Speaker 2>All right. Last one de Monsey Uh Whizzy.

0:57:42.160 --> 0:57:45.400
<v Speaker 3>Eleven ninety seven ask does Trentage have an online store?

0:57:46.440 --> 0:57:48.920
<v Speaker 2>It does not. It is, as my wife would say,

0:57:48.960 --> 0:57:51.680
<v Speaker 2>it is an experience, so you need to come into

0:57:51.680 --> 0:57:54.880
<v Speaker 2>the store to check it out. We appreciate that. Now.

0:57:55.360 --> 0:57:57.880
<v Speaker 2>I do wonder if some of the Trentage hoodies or

0:57:57.920 --> 0:58:01.840
<v Speaker 2>the Trentage branded merchandise, if those could be available online

0:58:01.840 --> 0:58:04.880
<v Speaker 2>at some point before the holidays. But for everything that's

0:58:04.960 --> 0:58:07.360
<v Speaker 2>in here, it's all one of the kind pieces that

0:58:07.440 --> 0:58:09.960
<v Speaker 2>she's kind of hand selected, so it's not an online

0:58:10.080 --> 0:58:12.520
<v Speaker 2>it's not available online. All right. I'll see you guys

0:58:12.800 --> 0:58:14.640
<v Speaker 2>with Colin in a couple hours, and I'll see you

0:58:14.680 --> 0:58:17.320
