1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:02,040 Speaker 1: The volume. 2 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 2: You don't fool championships. That should always be the expectation. 3 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 2: All right, man, actually, go ahead. Welcome back to the 4 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 2: Richard Sherman Podcast, presented by our friends and partners over 5 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 2: at Brightley, Getting us right, keeping it tight. Had a 6 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 2: really fun game tonight the Cleveland Browns and the Denver Broncos. 7 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 2: Jameis Winston. I mean, if nothing else, he's always fun 8 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 2: to watch. Jamis is always fun to watch. It's always 9 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 2: gonna be a lot of yards. He's gonna get to 10 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,919 Speaker 2: put some points on the board. If they didn't have, 11 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 2: if they didn't start, if they started Jamis to this 12 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 2: season at the beginning, they might be in playoff contention. 13 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 2: I mean, he's beat two really good teams in their division. 14 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 2: He's beat the Pittsburgh Steelers, he beat the Baltimore Ravens, 15 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 2: and he just plays at a really high level. Mitchell 16 00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 2: and I know he had three interceptions. He he forced 17 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 2: the ball in there, and he had been really accurate 18 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 2: throughout the night and it wasn't anything crazy. He was 19 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 2: behind on a second pick six. I think Elies Moore 20 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 2: could probably tap him down and ended that play. But 21 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 2: I mean outside of that, he pushed the ball down 22 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 2: to field four hundred and ninety seven yards. You just 23 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 2: don't see that very often. I think it's a Cleveland 24 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: Browns record, at least in the modern times. Broke the 25 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 2: record for your offensive output. And I think he's sending 26 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 2: a message to Brown's fans and that front office that hey, 27 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: not so fast, be careful, just letting me go. And 28 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 2: maybe he's auditioning for other teams, and other teams were saying, 29 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 2: if you need a bridge quarterback or somebody who deserves 30 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 2: a career rejuvenation or turnaround, I think Jamis deserves it. 31 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: You know again, I always sit there and get flack 32 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: for comparing him to Trevor Lawrence and Daniel Jones, But 33 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 2: I think he's better than both. If I'm being honest, 34 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: I think he's a better quarterback than both of those guys. 35 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: And I don't think he gets the same kind of 36 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,119 Speaker 2: respect because he's thrown all the interceptions. But to throw 37 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: for five thousand yards in the season, thirty plus touchdowns. 38 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 2: Of course, he had the thirty interceptions and that kills him. 39 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 2: But if you look at a lot of these other guys, 40 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: they're throwing a lot of interceptions. They're throwing a lot 41 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 2: of turnovers, and they don't have the kind of yards. 42 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: They're not taking a kind of risks. They're not as 43 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 2: productive as Jamis is. And if you talk about these receivers, 44 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: I'm sure they love playing with Jameis Winston. You look 45 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 2: at Jerry Judy today in his revenge game against the 46 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 2: Denver Broncos. Nine catches for two hundred and thirty five 47 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 2: yards in a touchdown, and he could have had more. 48 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 2: Jamis missed him on one of them. Elijah Moore eight 49 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 2: catches for one hundred yards two hundred yard plus receivers 50 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 2: in the same game, and it's not like he's doing 51 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 2: it with the most elite weapons in the world. You know, 52 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 2: Jerry Judy is a good player. He was highly touted 53 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 2: coming out of Alabama. But Elijah More also highly touted. 54 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: But they had not been as productive as as expected 55 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 2: when they came into the league. And look at him, 56 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 2: look at him under young Jamis. But huge win for 57 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 2: the Broncos and young bow Knicks. Eighteen thirty five two 58 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: ninety four yards. The one touchdown had two interceptions. You 59 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: can't you can't try Denzel Award too many times. I mean, 60 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: the heck of it played by Denzel Award on a 61 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: deep post post covering memes. He made a number of 62 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 2: really cool plays in this game. The Denver Broncos did 63 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: enough to win the game. Jalilmakloughlin really started to get 64 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 2: hot in the second half, started to run the ball well. 65 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 2: Javonte Williams and Michael Burton get the goal line touchdowns. 66 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 2: Marvin Mems has a huge play ninety three yard touchdown, 67 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 2: ends the game with three catches for one hundred and 68 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: five yards. Courtland Sutton another one hundred yard game for him, 69 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 2: but the huge plays were the Nick Benito and Jakwan 70 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: McMillan touchdowns. Obviously, this defense gave up a ton of yards. 71 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 2: Vance Joseph puts these boys in really difficult situations and 72 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, it was a long 73 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: day for you know, as a dB, as a corner 74 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 2: when you're giving up the kind of passes that I 75 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 2: think it was. Levi Wallace was given up in this game. 76 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: I feel for him because the fans are gonna beat 77 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 2: you up. You're gonna beat yourself up. You gotta go 78 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 2: back and watch that tape. It's not a lot of answers. 79 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 2: It's hard positions he's getting put in covering the receiver 80 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 2: with nothing but space. I mean, at the end of 81 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: the day, Jerry Judy could have ran any route in 82 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 2: the world and had all the space. If the pressure 83 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 2: doesn't get home, that's the weakness of the coverage. I 84 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 2: think Dance Joseph knows that when he calls it. They 85 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 2: actually caught him in that coverage twice. He missed Jerry 86 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: Judy on the right side. They splipped it to the 87 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 2: left side later in the game, bombs over Bagdad touchdown. 88 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's just something that Denver is gonna 89 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 2: have to live with. Obviously, they're they're down one of 90 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 2: their best corners, so they're just gonna have to figure 91 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 2: it out in the back end. And obviously that's a 92 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: weakness that Cleveland thought they could exploit, and other teams 93 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: would look to exploit that. But huge game, huge win 94 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 2: for Sean Payton and at Denver Broncos, Huge revenge game 95 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: for Jerry Judy. Happy for him. I'm sure he would 96 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 2: have wanted to help his team get this win, but 97 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 2: one of his career high in a game coming back 98 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 2: to Denver, showing these fans what he's really capable of 99 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 2: when he has a quarterback, they can get him the 100 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 2: ball when he needs it, how he needs it. I 101 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 2: think it was positive on both sides. Browns go back 102 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: to Pittsburgh to play the Steelers, see if they could 103 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 2: steal another win from them in this division. The Broncos 104 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 2: head to a very well deserved bye week late in 105 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 2: the season. That's kind you love, Mitchell. 106 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, they definitely are the beneficiaries of that rich and 107 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, more talk about Jamis here. 108 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: This guy. 109 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: There's no way, and I know we've already talked about 110 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: previous segments, there's no way this guy is not a 111 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: starter in the league. I mean, you take the name 112 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: and the numbers off these guys backs, and you just 113 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: throw all these quarterbacks into the ring. Jamis is going 114 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: to be one of the top thirty two in the league, 115 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: There's no question about that. Just to show you how 116 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: he can elevate the people around him, This was the 117 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: career day for Jerry Judy and for Elijah Moore. I 118 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: mean both of these guys, both Elijah Moore and Jerry 119 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: Judy were considered I mean, I don't want to call 120 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,239 Speaker 1: him bus but underwhelming out of college for their draft 121 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 1: positions and Baltimore are now on their second teams with 122 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns, and it seems like they must be 123 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: very thankful to have a mature Jamis Winston a season 124 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston back there, who's taken a lot of steps 125 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: since his days in Tampa Bay. This guy's really impressed me, man, 126 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: and I think he's If he's not the starter in 127 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: Cleveland next year, he's certainly going to have a shot 128 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: to be a starter somewhere else because there's at least 129 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: a dozen teams that would love to have him right now, Richard, 130 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: this is a huge one for the Broncos. I mean, 131 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: the AFC playoff picture is it's pretty much closed out 132 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: almost at this point. The last team really with much 133 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: of an attempt is the Indianapolis Colts and the Miami 134 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: Dolphins far behind the Broncos. So the Broncos neither of 135 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: this one big time. But we saw some flaws in 136 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: them defensively. I mean, their defense was this highly touted 137 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 1: defense that was really taken over games for him, but 138 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: we saw some flaws. Fortunately for them, they came up 139 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: with three huge interceptions, two of which were returned for touchdowns. 140 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: But what really impressed me today about them is boeckx. 141 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy the second half of the season, 142 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: and I know he's not the Vegas favorite to win 143 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: Offensive Rookie of the Year. I mean's that honor goes 144 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: to Jadon Daniels right now per DraftKings. But Richard, I 145 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: make the case for Bonis here. How is he not 146 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: overtaken Jayden Daniels at this point, especially with the Commanders 147 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: having the struggles they've had over the last month. 148 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 2: Well, Jadon Daniels has just been more consistent throughout the season. Obviously, 149 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: he had the three game skid or four games skid 150 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 2: where things didn't go his way, but you know he 151 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 2: comes rowing back this week w a huge game, and 152 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 2: his team has just been a bigger surprise. I think 153 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 2: obviously in this NFC East, you know they've lost games, 154 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: and I think or second right now in NFC East, 155 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 2: But I think people give Jadeen more credit for just 156 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 2: from the beginning to now. He started off really efficient, 157 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: breaking records for efficiency over his first four or five 158 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: games of the season, and it's really cool to see 159 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 2: bo Nicks do what he's doing and start to turn 160 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 2: it around the way he has. But I think Jade 161 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: and Daniels just had too much of a lead early 162 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 2: in the season, and if they continue to win and 163 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,679 Speaker 2: make the playoffs, I think it's just gonna be really 164 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: tough for him to catch him after everything that that 165 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 2: you know he did earlier in the season. You know 166 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 2: he was the number two pick, and when you start 167 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 2: the season off hot, sometimes people just don't forget it. 168 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 2: Sometimes they do, but I don't think they will.

What time is it? 222 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: Game time, Richard, Let's talk a little bit about your 223 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine ers. After we got off last 224 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: night of the podcast, we had speculated it might be 225 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: a serious injury with Christian McCaffrey has certainly learnt that 226 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: looked that way. Today we find out there is a 227 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: PCL injury. He's going to be out six weeks, which 228 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: means he's out for the year. To add insult to injury, 229 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: Jordan Mason also goes on IR with an ankle injury. 230 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: At this point in times, you destroy your arms up 231 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: in the area and start waving the white flag in 232 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 1: San Francisco, or where's your head at right now? 233 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 2: I don't think they have the guys to wave the 234 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: white flag. I don't think they're built like that, But 235 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 2: I think you do have to start playing young guys. 236 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 2: You have to start considering whether you bring Trent Williams 237 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 2: back this season or not, or do you just let 238 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 2: him rest and heal up. Obviously, you know, prayers and 239 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 2: condolences go out to Trent Williams. You know, dealing with 240 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 2: a very, very tragic situation. I cannot imagine and so 241 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 2: all the love in the world goes out to him. 242 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 2: You wonder if you just don't let him, let Jalen 243 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: Moore get some wraps, let this offensive line try to 244 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 2: hold it together. Obviously you want to protect brock Perdy, 245 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 2: and I don't think Trent Williams is built like that. 246 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 2: If he's healthy enough to play, he will be out 247 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 2: there playing football all But I think that's something you 248 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 2: need to consider. Obviously, Nick Bosa, I think returns. But 249 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 2: do you need him to return right now? They pay 250 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 2: him a lot of money, But I don't know, I 251 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: think it at this point. You you you know this 252 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 2: has been a struggle overseason, and and I think you 253 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 2: changed the perspective. You know, it's a disappointment, and we 254 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 2: clearly understand how much of a disappointment is to the players, 255 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 2: the fans, the coaches, everybody. But it's a fun game. 256 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 2: It's the kids game, and you've got to keep that 257 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 2: in perspective, and you got to find a way to 258 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 2: motivate these teams going into these games, and if nothing else, 259 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 2: have fun, have fun. Let's open the playbook back up 260 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 2: on offense. If Isaac Garrindo is the guy, then maybe 261 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 2: we we have fun, put put some trick plays in 262 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 2: there to keep the guys happy. Run your offense obviously, 263 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 2: try to score points, push the ball down the field, 264 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 2: but play like you got netting to lose. Like unfortunately, 265 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 2: this season hasn't gone how you wanted it to. But 266 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 2: all the pressure that's been on them all season, I 267 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 2: mean the pressure is off now. I mean it's it's 268 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 2: very unlikely, uh barring, you know, miracle really that they 269 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 2: make the playoffs, And if they do, it'd be really cool. 270 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 2: If they do, it'd be great. But I think you 271 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 2: have to allow these players to play free, let the 272 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: young guys play free, and tell these guys like, remember 273 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 2: why you play the game. Remember you why don't don't 274 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: let all the pressure, let all the circumstances dictate how 275 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 2: you go out there every Sunday and play. Don't let 276 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 2: the circumstances change how you go out there and do 277 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 2: your job. And I think if you, if you find 278 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 2: a way to inject some fun and some energy back 279 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 2: into this team, maybe guys respond better. They have a 280 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 2: winnable game this week against the Chicago Bears. I know 281 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 2: it's unfortunate, but it's it's probably a blessing in disguise 282 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 2: for Christian, you know, just allowing his body to rest 283 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 2: and reset. Injuries like that happen because he works really, really, 284 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 2: really hard, and he's pushed his body to the limit 285 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: just to give hisself a chance to come back and 286 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 2: play for this team. And so it's really unfortunate that 287 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 2: he had the injury. But I know those achilles were 288 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 2: still hurting him. I know his body was in shock 289 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 2: just coming back and and and being asked for what 290 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 2: he's been asking it for. Next year, you can start 291 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 2: off fresh, ready to go, and be ready to to 292 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 2: to reset and and and play with a fire. And 293 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 2: this time they're gonna they're gonna not be front runners 294 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 2: for the first time in a long time. You know, 295 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: team people are gonna be asking questions, is it over 296 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 2: for San Francisco forty nine ers? And I think that'll 297 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 2: be positive. 298 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: I think going into next year, you're gonna get a 299 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: bunch of guys that are super hungry to get back 300 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: to back to the top of the mountain. H Richard 301 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: and the window, like you talked about yesterday, it's not 302 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: it's not closed. They still got a lot of talent 303 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: in the house, and they've got they've been able to 304 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: develop some guys Diama Door and Leonora being one of them. 305 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: There there's some other guys that are gonna be able 306 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: to continue to elevate their game. Let's let's see what 307 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: Isaac Grendo does down the stretch here too. He's splashed 308 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: some speed and some explosiveness. So the division is still 309 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: on hand. We'll see what happens with the San Francisco 310 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: forty nine ers. But another former San Francisco forty nine 311 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: nine ers now where the Houston Texans made headlines over 312 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: the weekend as ziz Al Shaier absolutely obliterated Trevor Lawrence. 313 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: When Trevor Lawrence slid, I know he was a former 314 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: teammate of years. I know you guys probably have some 315 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: sort of a relationship. I know he's a fierce competitor 316 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: and this kind of stuff happens from time to time, 317 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: and he seemed genuine in his apology post game. But 318 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: you know, what do you make of these sliding quarterback 319 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: hits that we see from time to time. Obviously it 320 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: looked brutal in that moment, but what do you. 321 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 2: Make of this? Well, first off, you know thankful that 322 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 2: Trevor is okay. You know, that's the first thing. But 323 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 2: Z's is a really really good guy, you know, a 324 00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 2: pure football player as I've ever known. And I think 325 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 2: that you know, when people start to get to a 326 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 2: space where they're calling guys dirty and and acting like 327 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 2: he intended to hurt somebody, like get the We can 328 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 2: hurt people in this game. Understand that, Like understand that, 329 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 2: please fans. If we want to hurt people, they will 330 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 2: be hurting. And it's not a sliding quarterback. You don't 331 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 2: have to hit a sliding quarterback. We can get to 332 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 2: them if we want to. We can hurt people. That's 333 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 2: not why anybody plays. And you get bad karma, you 334 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: get bad juju. You did not make it all the 335 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 2: way to the National Football League by by trying to 336 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 2: injure people. He is a good human being. He's a 337 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 2: good person, and people were putting some really nasty stuff 338 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 2: out there, bringing his religion into a bringing all this 339 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 2: nonsense into it, Like, get get out of here, Get 340 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 2: out of here with that nonsense. Man, It's a football play, 341 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 2: and you don't understand how fast this game is, and 342 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 2: you don't understand how fast you have to make decisions. 343 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 2: So it's really frustrating to hear fans talk about all 344 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 2: us dirty, and he intended you're slow mowing things down 345 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 2: and being like, oh, look when he started his slide, 346 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 2: I don't know when he's starting to slide. Quarterbacks are 347 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 2: fake sliding and getting picking up. I mean, we've saw 348 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,959 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes done it multiple times, multiple weeks and got 349 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 2: thirty plus yards. And we've seen it in college FOOTBA, 350 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 2: we've seen it in the National Football League. And disease 351 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 2: is at the first down markt He knows exactly where 352 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 2: he is. All he's doing is playing good defense and 353 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 2: trying to stop him before the first down market. Travor's 354 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 2: trying to be greedy get a few extra yards before 355 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 2: he officially slides. Don't play that game, Trevor, because you 356 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 2: play that game and you're playing with fire. This is 357 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 2: a violent game. Five ten years ago, it wouldn't have 358 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 2: been a flag at all. It would have been hey, 359 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 2: start your slide earlier. So it's one of those plays 360 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 2: that's a bang bang play. It happens really fast, and 361 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 2: when you're going to hit, once you commit to hitty, 362 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 2: he's gonna he comes with violent intentions. I'm sorry. He 363 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 2: plays middle linebacker, a very old school way, he's gonna 364 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,680 Speaker 2: rin violently. Watch him play the game. He's going every 365 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 2: time it doesn't. It's not because he's a quarterback. If 366 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 2: it's a tight end or running back a tackle, he's 367 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 2: going to arrive violently. That's how he plays the game. 368 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 2: It's an unfortunate hit. It happens. This is the National 369 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 2: Football League. Trevor understands what he signed up for playing 370 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 2: in the National Football League. He understood what could potentially 371 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 2: happen if he slid late. And that's what happened. You know, 372 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 2: he got flagged, he got ejected, he'll get fined. Those 373 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 2: are the consequences of the play. Just stop, man. This 374 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 2: game has gotten too soft already, and everybody's blaming it all. 375 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 2: Oh well, with this player safety. They don't really care 376 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 2: about the players safety. They care about offensive player safety. 377 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 2: That's what has come down. That's what this game has become, 378 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 2: offensive player safety because you're letting defensive lineman get chipped 379 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 2: to all get out and you're celebrating it. Hey, did 380 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 2: you see how that running back crushed that d n's 381 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 2: ribs or are really chipped them or are blindsided him 382 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 2: and knocked them to the and everybody, everybody celebrating, Oh yeah, 383 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 2: look at that really really cool play. But then when 384 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 2: when uh, that's a defensive this defenseless player, he's going 385 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 2: to engage a tackle. He's not trying to engage a 386 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 2: running back. So when you sit there and blindside him, 387 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 2: that should be a flag. And I've talked to the 388 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 2: Competition committee about this, but again, they want to protect quarterbacks. 389 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 2: You don't want to put it is to protect everybody, 390 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 2: or is just protect offensive players? Because that's what it 391 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 2: seems like a lot of times. So when when offensive 392 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 2: players have to deal with a little bit of physicality, 393 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 2: everybody goes all up in arms, like, go watch the 394 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 2: highlight tapes from the two thousands. Please go watch the 395 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: highly tapes from the nineties. Then you come back to 396 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 2: me and tell me how many of those players will 397 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 2: be legal today. That's what this game was built on. 398 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 2: So I don't want to hear people sitting there coming 399 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 2: at him with ridiculous takes because he made a football player, 400 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 2: or he made a really fast decision. Split the second decision, 401 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 2: because those you're the same fans that if your defender 402 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 2: gives up on a player and let's a quarterback get 403 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 2: a first down, you're like, oh man, like so lazy, 404 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 2: put you show better effort, Like how are you gonna 405 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 2: let him get the first down? Like that's how quick 406 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 2: you have to think. On the defensive side, you have 407 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 2: to assume he's going for the first time down when 408 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: he takes two extra steps unnecessarily when he sees you 409 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 2: in front of him, he sees that, hey, I'm here 410 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 2: to stop you. I'm not gonna let you go. And 411 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 2: you take extra steps, you're telling me you might be 412 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 2: trying to go. And so once I commit to make 413 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 2: an attackle it's hard to pull up again. Ziz is 414 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 2: a great dude, a great human being, a fun dude. 415 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 2: And I'm happy that he got to apologize and of 416 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 2: course his heart felt that he's a genuine human being. 417 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 2: You wouldn't say it if he didn't mean it, So 418 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 2: I'm happy he did that. But I hate all the 419 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 2: nonsense that he has talked online mental because he's you guys, 420 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 2: just I mean, stop watching football if you feel that 421 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 2: softly about it, Like, just go watch something else. Go 422 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 2: watch soccer, you know, and watch them flop around and 423 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 2: do all that. Don't watch this game. 424 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: You're not wrong, I mean. Couch critics on social media, 425 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,439 Speaker 1: they will get the best you And to your point, Richard, 426 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 1: I don't know his ease. I know you know him well, 427 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 1: but seeing the way he handled the situation postgame, you 428 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: can tell that was not his intent, and you know 429 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: the way he handled it was like a man. So 430 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: kudos to him for the way he handled it after 431 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 1: the fact. Richard, Let's talk a little bit about this 432 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,959 Speaker 1: MVP race. We talked last night about it, and you 433 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: said Josh Allen should not be the leader or is 434 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,159 Speaker 1: not going to win the MVP, is what you said. 435 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: But DraftKings and Vegas in general thinks differently. They have 436 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 1: Josh Allen as the leader of the clubhouse at a 437 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: minus two twenty five odds, with the closest person next 438 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,959 Speaker 1: to him Sakwon Barkley at plus three point fifty, followed 439 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: by Lamar Jackson at nine hundred, Goff at twelve hundred, 440 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: and Mahomes at twenty eight hundred. 441 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 2: You have that much conviction you're. 442 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: Still seeing after seeing this and hearing this, you still 443 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: believe Josh Allen is not going to win the MVP. 444 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 2: Well, because I just don't know what it's based off 445 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 2: on of anymore. You know, it used to be based 446 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: off of elite stats and and you know, really really 447 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 2: special performances, and Josh Allen's team is having a special performance, 448 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 2: and he's performed special in certain games. Not that he's 449 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 2: playing bad football by any stretcher down imagination. He's playing 450 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 2: really good football. But MVP level used to be held 451 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,120 Speaker 2: to a higher regard. And just like last year, everybody 452 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 2: was killing me because I was like, Josh Allen has 453 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 2: forty what do you have? Forty four touchdowns? Last year 454 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 2: forty four total touchdowns at about forty three hundred passing yards. 455 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 2: He did have the eighteen interceptions. That was that was 456 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 2: the red herring that but I was like, that's a 457 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 2: great season, Like that's an impactful season. That's a season 458 00:23:54,560 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 2: worthy of MVP consideration. And this season he has to 459 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 2: end up with a lot I can't say a lot 460 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 2: less touchdowns, but he has twenty passing touchdowns, only five interceptions, 461 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 2: which is a huge improvement, three hundred and thirty four 462 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 2: rush yards, six touchdowns, and he still has five games 463 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 2: to go, so you know that twenty six hundred and 464 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 2: ninety one yards will probably get closer to four thousand 465 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 2: if he what is that Let's see if he gets 466 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty a game. Five games, that'll be yeah, 467 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 2: it'd be right under right, about forty three hundred something 468 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 2: like that. But I just don't understand it when the numbers. 469 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,959 Speaker 2: I'm not talking about anything but the numbers. Guys, just 470 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 2: like I was last year when I said, Lamar with 471 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 2: twenty four passing touchdowns is gonna be the MVP, and 472 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 2: they told me, yes, I sound crazy, I'm stupid. I'm 473 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 2: an idiot because I don't think he should get it 474 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 2: because those numbers aren't really all inspiring compared to his 475 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 2: MVP season where he had I think, I believe thirty 476 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 2: six passing touchdowns and I think he had I'd have 477 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 2: to go back and look, but eight or nine rushing 478 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 2: touchdowns and he just had a lot more that you 479 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 2: looked at the stat line and he said MVP. Like, 480 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 2: if you look at it and you say, hey, completion percentage, 481 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 2: does he lead the league? Is he top five? No 482 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 2: passing yards saying, no passing touchdowns, no interceptions, He's probably 483 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 2: close to up there. But then you look at Burrow 484 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,880 Speaker 2: and Lamar and you're just like, Burrow is just being 485 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 2: let down at this point. But we're gonna get to 486 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 2: him later. Then you look at Sakwan Barkley. Over twelve games, 487 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,479 Speaker 2: he has fifteen hundred pretty much fifteen hundred rushing yards, 488 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: averaging one hundred and twenty four yards a game, almost 489 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five yards a game, eleven rushing touchdowns, 490 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 2: which should be fifteen if it wasn't for the tush 491 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 2: push and them giving it to Jalen Hurts from the 492 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 2: one yard line four or five times, two hundred and 493 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 2: seventy five touches, seventeen hundred scribbage yards. That's starting to 494 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 2: sound like an MVP numbers with five games to go. 495 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 2: So if you say he averages what he averages for 496 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 2: the next five games, what is that six hundred or 497 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 2: so yards, So that put him over two thousand yards 498 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 2: for a running back. That would sound like an MVP season. 499 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 2: He'd probably be leading the league in all those categories. MVP. 500 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, Like, don't get mad at me, 501 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 2: because the numbers are the numbers. Guys MVPs usually lead 502 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 2: the league. Now it's become such a popularity contest of 503 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 2: hey man, everybody's making a lot of noise about these 504 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 2: guys making special plays that the numbers don't even matter 505 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 2: anymore when I let's get to Lamar Jackson. When I 506 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 2: sit there and say, man, Lamar Jackson's having an MVP season. 507 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 2: He has almost six hundred more yards passing yards than 508 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 2: Josh Allen, nine more passing touchdowns, two less interceptions, three, 509 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 2: it is completing a higher percent of his higher percentage 510 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 2: of his passes, has almost three hundred plus more rushing yards. 511 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 2: Don't call me crazy, these are the numbers. His team 512 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 2: is eight and five. Sure, could he have run a 513 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 2: little bit more last week? Sure, give you that. And 514 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 2: will he win MVP without his team being a one 515 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 2: or two seed? Probably not. But the numbers are the numbers. 516 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 2: And just like Joe Burrow, Joe Burrow is being let 517 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 2: down in such a criminal way by his defense, and 518 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 2: it's it's really sad. I mean to score thirty three 519 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 2: plus and four games and lose all four of them, 520 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 2: to have MVP numbers over twelve games, and to be 521 00:27:55,960 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 2: four and eight. They showed a stat where the quarterbacks 522 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 2: had you know, I think it was three thousand plus yards, 523 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 2: thirty touchdowns, or it might have been just thirty plus touchdowns, 524 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,479 Speaker 2: five interceptions over twelve games. And I don't think it 525 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 2: was Tom, it was Aaron, it was Peyton, it was 526 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 2: all of them. And it was ten wins, eleven wins, 527 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 2: nine wins, I think nine was the least. And then 528 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 2: it was Joe Burrow at four wins, and it's just like, 529 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 2: my goodness, what a wasted year for him. And I 530 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 2: can't imagine how he feels because you're looking at that 531 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 2: tape and trying to see what else he could have 532 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 2: done more. But again, you look at his stats. Thirty 533 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 2: three hundred passing yards leads the NFL, thirty passing touchdowns 534 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:44,239 Speaker 2: leads the NFL. Five interceptions MVP. If Josh Allen had 535 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 2: those numbers, I'd be sitting there saying, you guys are silly. 536 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 2: Give him the award, walk away like it's done. But 537 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 2: he has ten less touchdown pass ten less, like that's 538 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:00,080 Speaker 2: a huge number to have less than it. And I 539 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 2: don't understand people are acting like I'm hating. I really 540 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 2: like Josh Allen. We just had the game, we we 541 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 2: talked to him. He's a great human being. He's playing 542 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 2: phenomenal football right now. But is it MVP level. I 543 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 2: don't Maybe I'm I'm looking at something different than you guys, 544 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 2: maybe I'm looking at at something. And yes, I've watched 545 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills play. Yes, I understand how dependent they 546 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 2: are on Josh Allen performing at a high level to 547 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: win these games. All right fully understand that. But but 548 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 2: do the numbers not matter anymore? If they don't, then okay, 549 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 2: then you got it. Then then then maybe then maybe 550 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 2: it's gonna go to Jared Golf because they'll they'll mess 551 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 2: around and get the one seed in the NFC. He'll 552 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 2: have seventy one percent completion percentage, twenty nine hundred passing yards, 553 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 2: twenty two passing touchdowns, nine interceptions like they're they're eleven 554 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 2: and one though, you know, like what what? What is 555 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 2: the criteria? Now? I'm just baffled, I'm bamboos with I'm flummocks. 556 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 2: I don't get it. 557 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: I do have a lot of respect for Josh Allen. 558 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: I think he should certainly be up there in this conversation. 559 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 2: But to me, it's like. 560 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: The season that Saquon Barkley's had is unbelievable. He looks 561 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: like he looks like he did at Penn State when 562 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: he was just running all over people left and right 563 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: every game, and the way he's elevated and provided such 564 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 1: a new dimension to this Eagles offense. Richard, It's you 565 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: can just see it happening. I mean, it's repetitive. This 566 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: the Eagles team with him at the at the running 567 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: back position, they just grind people down and by that 568 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: and mid to late third quarter, you can just see 569 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: the tie turn. 570 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 2: And shift to the Eagles. 571 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: I don't think there are gonna be anywhere close to 572 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: ten and two without him, and just the way he's 573 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 1: been playing. If he does not win the MVP, what 574 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: in the world is it going to take for a 575 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: running back to win an because there hasn't been in 576 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: a running back since twenty twelve when Adrian Peterson won it. 577 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,959 Speaker 2: Right, And that's what I'm saying, Like, if you just 578 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 2: look at the numbers, I just don't understand it. Because 579 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 2: if you tell me a running back has literally rushed 580 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 2: for over two thousand yards, and obviously it's seventeen game season, 581 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: it used to be more rare over sixteen games. But 582 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 2: still give them credit because it's still over one hundred 583 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 2: yards a game. And you say that Josh Allen finishes 584 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 2: in the positions that he is in now, he'd beat 585 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 2: thirteenth in passing yards, tied for sixth and passing touchdowns. 586 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 2: I don't know. I just don't. I don't know, because 587 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 2: because what does it mean to be MVP most valuable 588 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 2: player in the National Football League If you're saying just 589 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: the most valuable player in the league to his team, 590 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 2: just Saquan is the most valuable player right now, to 591 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 2: his team. Take him off. They're different. Take Josh Allen 592 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 2: off of Buffalo. They're a lot different too. They're bad. 593 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 2: You take Joe Burrow off the Cincinnati Bengals right now, 594 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 2: I mean, they might get relegated. I don't. We don't 595 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 2: do relegations, but if you follow Major League soccer at all, 596 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 2: but teams get sent back to the developmental league if 597 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 2: they're not competing hard enough, and if they didn't have 598 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase and T Higgins, let's not 599 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 2: disrespect tea, they might be relegated. Mitchell, So I just 600 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe he gets hot and has a 601 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 2: few three hundred yard games and really pats those stats 602 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 2: and gets into the top five in those categories. But 603 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 2: I just don't, you know, I don't understand the fixation 604 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 2: where it's like like he's a he's the like clear favorite. 605 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 2: You know, it'd be different if it's like, oh, they're 606 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 2: all But you're saying he's a clear favorite. What numbers justify? 607 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 2: You know? That's that's all I'm saying, Josh. If he's 608 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 2: gonna win it, he's gonna win it. Just like last 609 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 2: year I said this and Lamar still won it. Lamar 610 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 2: deserves it this year, and now the people are gonna 611 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 2: tell me he's not gonna win it. I just like, 612 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: I don't get it. 613 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: Because there's a quarterback captain and a team with the 614 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,719 Speaker 1: better record Richard, and I mean, to his credit, they 615 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: catch a pass for a touchdown, throw a touchdown pass, 616 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: and rush for a touchdown pass last night. 617 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 2: So really cool. But then if you say, if your 618 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 2: quarterback captaining a quarterback a team to a better record 619 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 2: than Jared Golf is doing the same. 620 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: Thing, I agree, and I'm all aboard that. Jared Goff 621 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: for MV. You already know. 622 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 2: That rich if he wouldn't have thrown those five interceptions, 623 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 2: it would be a lot, it wouldn't It would. 624 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: Let's talk about some of these divisional races right now. 625 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: Let's start with the NFC West I know that's near 626 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: and dear to your heart. And right now the Seattle 627 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: Seahawks have a game lead over the Cardinals and the 628 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: Rams with the forty nine ers two games back. Richard, 629 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: do you like I mean bias aside, do you like 630 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 1: this team to come out of the NFC wise? 631 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 2: Well, I was about to switch hats, but I don't 632 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 2: even feelex hands right now, I do. I just this 633 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 2: game against Arizona Cardinals this week is gonna tell us 634 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,839 Speaker 2: a lot if they win that, and I feel really 635 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 2: good about their chances to come out of this NFC West, 636 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 2: barring barring some some disaster down the stretch. You look 637 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 2: at Leonard Williams playing defense, playing really, really, really fantastic 638 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 2: defensive football. That defense just seems like it's it's feasting. 639 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:36,439 Speaker 2: Their energy is high, they're swarming. Ernest Jones has looked 640 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 2: like a godsend coming in and really really making his 641 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 2: name known and making his impact. Tyrese Knight got a 642 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 2: turnover last week, making his presence known, flying around, hitting 643 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 2: everything moving. They're just better fits in this game than 644 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 2: the backers before. Tyrone Dotson, you know who's now with 645 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 2: the Miami Dolphins. They just look like they're doing the 646 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 2: things that Mike McDaniel, I mean, Mike McDonald envisioned when 647 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 2: he got this defense together. I think when they play 648 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 2: like this, their offense will eventually come. If they give 649 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 2: Geno time, he will get it done. Arizona is one 650 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,760 Speaker 2: of those teams that brings a lot of pressure. It'll 651 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 2: be exotic. I'm sure sure Gannon will figure some things 652 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 2: out and really come up with a great plan. If 653 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 2: they can stop the run, it's gonna be important. James 654 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 2: Connor has been known to close game out. If they 655 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:36,280 Speaker 2: can stop the run and beat Arizona again, and Mitchell, 656 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 2: they're gonna be feeling sitting pretty pretty good in a 657 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 2: good spot going down the stretch. 658 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,760 Speaker 1: The other team to worry about there is the La Rams. 659 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, you give Matthew Stafford any opportunity and 660 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 1: he can be dangerous. But the Seattle Seahawks team has 661 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: looked completely different over this last three game winning strike streak, 662 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: so you got to give them a lot of credit. 663 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: And like you said, this game this weekend is going 664 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 1: to be the divider. If they can go up two 665 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 1: games on Arizona and just have to worry about La 666 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:07,479 Speaker 1: down the stretch, really, that would be a huge, huge 667 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: weight off their chest, no question. Let's talk about my 668 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: NFC North. I know you're coming into town this Thursday 669 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: to watch my Detroit Lions take on the Green Bay Packers. 670 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: Right now, Richard, as good of a season as Detroit 671 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 1: Lions can have. It's been a dream season. Eleven wins 672 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 1: and one loss, best start to the season in franchise history. 673 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,840 Speaker 1: And you'd think they just have a cake walk for 674 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: the division title. But that is just not the case 675 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: at all. The Minnesota Vikings are a game back, green 676 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: Bay pay Packers are two and obviously this Thursday is 677 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: a huge opportunity for the Packers. You know, I love 678 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions. I am very much so worried about 679 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 1: them for these next two games because they need to 680 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: get healthy. They've brought in four new bodies to this 681 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: defense right now. If you look at the roster from 682 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: the beginning of the year, and I know I'm I'm 683 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: talking to a guy who has been filing the forty 684 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: nine ers for the past several years. But this season, 685 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 1: let alone, you don't have much sympathy for the injury bug. 686 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: But this Detroit Lions team is decimated with injuries. They've 687 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 1: got to find a way to beat the Green Bay 688 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 1: Packers and get to the long week because they're going 689 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: to have nine to ten days off to get healthy. 690 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 1: It's so crucial that they get to win this Thursday 691 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: and then they can rest up a little bit on 692 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: a mini half by week before Buffalo comes into town. 693 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: These next two games are going to mean a lot 694 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: for the division. Richard, who do you do you like 695 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,919 Speaker 1: the Lions? Can you boost my confidence a little bit here? 696 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? I feel good about what the Lions are going 697 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 2: to do. It's a division game, so even if you're 698 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,839 Speaker 2: fully healthy, it's going to be a dogfight, So don't 699 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 2: It's going to be an ugly just like every other 700 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 2: division game is going to be ugly. It's going to 701 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 2: be close. It's going to come down to the wire. 702 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,240 Speaker 2: Do you trust your running backs and your offense to execute. 703 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 2: I think they're going to lean on the run game 704 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 2: with David Montgomery and Jamior Gibbs running a football. Your 705 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 2: boy Sam la Porter will have some matchups that he 706 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 2: can find. They don't bring a ton of pressure, but 707 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,399 Speaker 2: when when Jeff Haffley does bring pressure, it usually gets 708 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 2: home and it usually is right on time. But this 709 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 2: offensive line, this is what they're built for. This is 710 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 2: your time to shine. That time of possession is going 711 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 2: to be the most important thing in this game. And 712 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 2: you just need that defense to get a few stops. 713 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 2: You need a few stops. You need them to drive 714 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 2: down the field getting the red zone. You need red 715 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 2: zone stops, you need third down stops, you need to 716 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 2: be masters on third down. Yes, they can score some points, 717 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,919 Speaker 2: but again, Jordan Love can be really, really like all 718 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:46,280 Speaker 2: pro level fantastic when he's threatening a needle and completing 719 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 2: some really outrageous passes that that very few quarterbacks can make. 720 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 2: But then you look on the other side and he'll 721 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 2: throw the ball to the other team a lot. And 722 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 2: the guys that are healthy. Talking about Kirby Joseph and 723 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 2: Brian Branch, your safeties, there's eleven picks between those two alone. 724 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 2: So if they can do what they've done all season. 725 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 2: Kirby Joseph has seven, Brian Branch has four. If they 726 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 2: can do what they've done all season, then I think 727 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:15,360 Speaker 2: he'll be fine. If they can just get one or 728 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 2: two turnovers, give that offense one or two extra possessions 729 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 2: to really grind that clock down and just get out 730 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 2: of here with a win, get you to that bye week. 731 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be it's gonna be fun, fun day. 732 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 2: But this is a tough opponent and their defense can 733 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 2: turn the ball over. Xavier McKinney ended the program has 734 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 2: I think he has seven interceptions now and he finds 735 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 2: a way to get that ball. So Jared's gonna have 736 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 2: to be very careful putting the ball up around his 737 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 2: vicinity because he will come down with it. I'm sure 738 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 2: they'll they'll push the envelope some with Jamison Williams down 739 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 2: the field, but I'm in ross. Saint Brown will be 740 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 2: working that intermediary area, and so will Sam Laporter. But 741 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 2: I think Laporta and Jamier Gibbs are gonna have to 742 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 2: be the keys in that passing game this week for 743 00:39:58,680 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 2: you guys to come out with a win. 744 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 1: Richard I will be in attendance and you will be 745 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: there as well. That's this week's Thursday Night football preview, 746 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,320 Speaker 1: brought to you by our friends and partners at Amazon 747 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: Prime Video. Make sure you guys tune in this Thursday 748 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: at seven pm to watch Richard in the Gang. I 749 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,280 Speaker 1: hopefully I can get some screen time on there, Richard, 750 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 1: with in my seats, I'll be yelling my face off 751 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 1: goal lines. We'll see what happens there, Richard. Let's talk 752 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:30,799 Speaker 1: about the AFC North. These Steelers. I mean, we've talked 753 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: about them enough, and they've certainly deserved to be so 754 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 1: prevalent in our conversations. But they've proven to so many 755 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,760 Speaker 1: people how good Mike Tomlin is as a head coach. 756 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: I mean, not many folks thought that much of this 757 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 1: team coming into the season. Not many people knew it 758 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: was going to be to make of Justin Fields and 759 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. They've got a two game lead over the 760 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,919 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. I don't think a whole lot of folks 761 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 1: would have seen this company. Do you think that they 762 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: can hold off to Baltimore Ravens down the stretch with 763 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: this two game lead? 764 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 2: I do, I do, because the Baltimore Ravens just keeps 765 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 2: stumbling down the stretch and they have tough games coming up. 766 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 2: That loss to Philly was really, really, really damning to 767 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 2: their hopes of winning this division because that would have 768 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 2: gave him a chance. You know, I thought the Browns 769 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 2: beating this Pittsburgh Steelers really was a mulligan for the 770 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens, like they gave them another opportunity. They were 771 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 2: right there still one game back, and then they lose 772 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 2: to the Philadelphia Eagle. Is a really tough game and 773 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 2: put themselves in a very difficult situation and they're not 774 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 2: in control of their own destiny. They're gonna need some help. 775 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,360 Speaker 2: They're gonna need some Pittsburgh Steelers losses coming up in 776 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 2: the future for them to have a chance. But the 777 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers have done a phenomenal job and Mike Tomlin 778 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 2: has his hands all over it. He's just look at 779 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 2: these games when they needed the defense to play well 780 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 2: and keep the score low. The defense has played well, 781 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:02,400 Speaker 2: kept the score low. When Russell Wilson's needed to do 782 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 2: more and have a career night, you know, second most 783 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 2: yards in his career, he scores forty four points when 784 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow scores thirty eight. Even when the defense is 785 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 2: having a tough night, they find a way to get turnovers. 786 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 2: You know. TJ. Watt is relentless. He's gonna find a 787 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 2: way to impact the game in some way. They find 788 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 2: a way to score on defense, and that's what's made 789 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 2: this season really special for the Pittsburgh Steelers George Pickens. Obviously, 790 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 2: Tomlin talks about his maturity level with some of these 791 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,320 Speaker 2: penalties and just unnecessary things he does, but his talent 792 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 2: is undeniable. He's made huge, huge plays for this team, 793 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 2: especially on a deep ball. Calvin Austin has been a 794 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 2: revelation in the past game. Always been a speedy, you know, 795 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 2: return guy who can impact the game that way. But 796 00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 2: this season, Russell Wilson has trusted him to put it 797 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 2: past the ball, given him the ball, give him opportunities 798 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 2: down the field, and he's really taken advantage of him. 799 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 2: So I don't see him catching them right now, you know, 800 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 2: with how well they're playing and on both sides of 801 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 2: the ball, when when one side struggles, the other side 802 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 2: usually picks up the weight. And they're going to be 803 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 2: a really tough out in the playoffs. 804 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: Let's take it to the NFC South, so we've got 805 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 1: really a two team battle between the Atlanta Falcons and 806 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Falcons have been struggling of reason. 807 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:24,399 Speaker 1: They off to a six and three started lost three 808 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 1: in a row, and meanwhile, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have 809 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,359 Speaker 1: overcome a lot of adversity, losing both Chris Godwin and 810 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,839 Speaker 1: Mike Evans and back to back weeks, but they've been 811 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: able to weather that injury storm and now one two 812 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 1: straight and tied it up with the Atlanta Falcons. The 813 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 1: momentum seems to be swinging to Tampa Bay. Do you 814 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:47,560 Speaker 1: think Tampa can pull this off down the stretch? Yeah, 815 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,959 Speaker 1: I mean Baker, Baker is a reason. Baker is doing 816 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 1: whatever is necessary to get the job done. And again 817 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: Mike Evans comes back. Baker. They talked about it on 818 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 1: the broadcast. Baker knows exactly the amount of yards Mike 819 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 1: Evans needs to get a thousand yards and he said 820 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 1: he needs ninety nine point two a game, I think 821 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:09,880 Speaker 1: he said, and he's gonna make sure he gets it. 822 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 1: He had over one hundred and this game really incredible. 823 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: One hand catching the end zone and he just brings 824 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,439 Speaker 1: so much gravity and he opens up so many things 825 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 1: in this offense. You've seen Bucky getting getting a lot 826 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 1: more space in a run game because Mike Evans is 827 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,920 Speaker 1: back in the lineup, and even though he gets all 828 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:32,719 Speaker 1: this attention, he still has one hundred yards eight catches. Defensively, 829 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 1: they got a veteran defense that's gonna make enough plays 830 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 1: when they need him, got banged up in the secondary. 831 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,640 Speaker 1: Our guy Jordan Whitehead. 832 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 2: Out for the season with I think a torn pet 833 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,960 Speaker 2: Mike Edwards, who just came back, a guy who's been 834 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 2: with Tampa for a while, they know him, one of 835 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,359 Speaker 2: their favorite guys gets injured with a hamstring, and so 836 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,959 Speaker 2: they have to overcome those things, and I think they'll 837 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,760 Speaker 2: be fine. Richard. 838 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 1: This past week, Matt Eberflus got fired, I guess a 839 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,359 Speaker 1: couple of days ago. And there's a bunch of other 840 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: coaches that are on the hot seat right now. Brian 841 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 1: Dable with the Giants, Antonio Piers and Doug Peterson. All 842 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 1: these teams are two to ten. You know, I don't 843 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,399 Speaker 1: know how much can be blamed on day Ball and 844 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,880 Speaker 1: Antonio Piers. A lot more of that looks at the 845 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 1: roster construction. Doug Peterson's been dealing with, you know, the 846 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 1: issues I think with Trevor Lawrence and other things in Jacksonville. 847 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 1: But who do you think of these three as the 848 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 1: first to go next? 849 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,360 Speaker 2: Well, I'll just give him my opinions on it. I 850 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 2: don't think Brian Dave Ball needs to be fired. I 851 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,760 Speaker 2: think I don't think he was giving a fair shot. 852 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 2: You signed Daniel Jones to a deal that is not 853 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 2: the quarterback he would pick. I don't think you know. 854 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 2: I'm sure he makes the best of a situation with 855 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,879 Speaker 2: what he's got. But like you said, roster construction has 856 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,879 Speaker 2: been an issue, especially on the offensive side of the ball. 857 00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 2: We all saw the behind the scenes videos talking about 858 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:02,879 Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley. Oh oh, he'll be fine. He won't get 859 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:05,280 Speaker 2: the money and he won't have an impact, and people 860 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 2: don't do a running back. Well, he went somewhere else 861 00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,359 Speaker 2: and had an MVP season, and I'm sure Dave Bo 862 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,719 Speaker 2: would love to have Saquon Barkley and his abilities on 863 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,360 Speaker 2: this offense this year, along with everything else he didn't 864 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 2: have it. He made the best of the situation that 865 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 2: he had. They're gonna need to show up this offensive line. Unfortunately, 866 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 2: Dexter Lawrence, arguably their best player, goes out with a 867 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 2: dissocated elbow. You lose your left tackle and just been 868 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,839 Speaker 2: a rash of injuries. I think you have to start over, 869 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 2: and Dave Bo deserves the ability to come draft a 870 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:41,799 Speaker 2: really good young quarterback and help him develop and run 871 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 2: an offense, pick a tailor made guy for his system 872 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 2: and then see how it goes. Get an offensive lineman 873 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 2: or two and free agency and then see how it goes. 874 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 2: I don't think he deserves to be fired without seeing 875 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,239 Speaker 2: how he would do with a young quarterback who's really 876 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,760 Speaker 2: talented and that he picks. 877 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:03,400 Speaker 1: And what about Antonio Peers. I mean, I feel like 878 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 1: it's almost the same story with him. He was the 879 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 1: interim head coach right last year and then ultimately took over, 880 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: and I think his background being a former player, really 881 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 1: rejuvenated that team. He brought a lot of energy and 882 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 1: you can tell he's an energetic coach that is very passionate. 883 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 1: Do you think he is the right fit in Vegas. 884 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,319 Speaker 1: I think he's the perfect fit in Vegas. I think 885 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,920 Speaker 1: they they set him up for failure, and if you 886 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: fire him, it's such bs. 887 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:39,719 Speaker 2: It's such bs because you didn't give him a good 888 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,359 Speaker 2: enough team to do anything more than what they're doing. 889 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:46,359 Speaker 2: They had the Kansas City Chiefs eleven and one number 890 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 2: one record in AFC on the ropes done for But 891 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 2: he's had to do this with Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell. 892 00:47:56,120 --> 00:48:00,879 Speaker 2: These aren't necessarily elite quarterbacks. They've done a really serviceable job. 893 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 2: They had Davonte for a little while, they traded him away. 894 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 2: You let Josh Jacobs go, and so you knew that 895 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,359 Speaker 2: this this wasn't going to be an attractive job this 896 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 2: off last offseason. So did you just give it to 897 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 2: Antonio Pierce so that he could bite the bullet this season, 898 00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 2: just to fire him until it was a more attractive position. 899 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,879 Speaker 2: When you have a high draft pick and you can 900 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 2: get a quarterback of the future and you can you 901 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 2: can go move on like that. If they do that, 902 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 2: I'd be so pissed off because that's total bs. You 903 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 2: set the man up for failure, expected him to fail, 904 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 2: fired him for failing with no chance to Yeah, I 905 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 2: hope not. I hope. I don't think he sho should 906 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 2: be fired. Same situation when Dave Bowl, except he hasn't 907 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 2: gotten enough time to even build a team. I mean, 908 00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,759 Speaker 2: draft some really good players and and see what we 909 00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 2: could do. So have a high draft pick this year, 910 00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 2: I'm sure they'll get a quarterback. I'm sure they'll try 911 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 2: to attract some more playmakers on the defensive side of 912 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 2: the football. Helps help out your pass rush, help out 913 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 2: your offensive line and let's see what happens. But he 914 00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 2: hasn't been given a fair shake. So if they fire 915 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,080 Speaker 2: him without giving them a fair shake, then this was 916 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 2: just this is just a setup. This is a poison 917 00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 2: peel setup job that you guys just wanted him to 918 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:27,520 Speaker 2: bridge until they got a pick, until more attractive coaches 919 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:30,360 Speaker 2: come come knocking at your door because you have the 920 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 2: number one or number two or number three pick of 921 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 2: the draft. So no, Doug Peterson, I mean, he's not 922 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,439 Speaker 2: gonna fix Trevor Lawrence. Nothing's gonna fix him, and they're 923 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 2: gonna keep blaming him as long as he's there for 924 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:47,960 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence's shortcoming. So I mean, I think he should 925 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 2: go just just so that he doesn't have to continue 926 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,480 Speaker 2: to deal with that because no matter what, that's what 927 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 2: they're gonna do. They're gonna blame him when they lose. 928 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 2: And then if a new coach comes in, they'll and 929 00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 2: a new you know, highly touted offensive court come in 930 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 2: and they struggle again, then people will start to finally say, 931 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 2: maybe the quarterback isn't isn't the guy. 932 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,400 Speaker 1: What's going on at Jacksonville's just wild because this team 933 00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 1: was in the playoffs a couple of years ago, they 934 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,839 Speaker 1: were they were red hot. I mean I think there 935 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:21,240 Speaker 1: was even a poll going into last season which organization 936 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: would you rather be the Jacksonville Jaguars or Detroit Lions, 937 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 1: And the majority of folks picked the Jaguars. So like 938 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,440 Speaker 1: this team was set up for success too. You had 939 00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: a high end quarterback and number one pick, you had 940 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,759 Speaker 1: the other number one pick and Tevon Walker. They had 941 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 1: all these these guys that were supposed to blossom into 942 00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 1: stars and they just haven't. And it's just been this 943 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:44,640 Speaker 1: downward spiral and I don't know when they're going to 944 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 1: be able to rise back up. Rich They they've it's 945 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 1: so surprising to me. But point being, it's your to 946 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: echo you here. They're going to use Doug Peterson as 947 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:56,480 Speaker 1: a shield. I mean, he's going to be the one 948 00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 1: taking the blame for this, and ultimately I would not 949 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,720 Speaker 1: be surprised at all to see him the next dominal 950 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:06,200 Speaker 1: to fall in terms of coaching firings. Richard, let's move 951 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 1: on to buy or sell. I'm gonna it states some 952 00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:11,759 Speaker 1: statements of fact to you and then ask you to 953 00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:14,960 Speaker 1: buy or sell them. We've got some good ones to 954 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 1: go around. I'm gonna start with this. If you're a 955 00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:24,360 Speaker 1: head coach, the Bears job opening is an appealing one 956 00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:27,560 Speaker 1: bye or sell. 957 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 2: Bye bye bye bye, like like was it in sync 958 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:30,879 Speaker 2: or was that Backstreet Boys? 959 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: Bye bye? That was I think it was in sync? 960 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,920 Speaker 1: Yeah bye, Well might have been Backstreets. That's what I'm saying. 961 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 1: We don't want to offend anybody. They have be careful. 962 00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 2: Bye. It's really attractive job. They have good players on defense, 963 00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 2: they have good players on offense. You got a quarterback 964 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 2: that's starting to figure it out. You just need some 965 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,720 Speaker 2: structure in the system in place. Swift looked like a really, 966 00:51:55,760 --> 00:52:00,319 Speaker 2: really serviceable, good running back. Bye. I think I think 967 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 2: somebody can step in there and make them a playoff contender. 968 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:08,280 Speaker 1: Right now, let's move to the Falcons with the struggle 969 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 1: of Kirk Cousins, your boy Kirk. Oh, the Falcons should 970 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:18,240 Speaker 1: start Michael pennockx Junior buy or sell. 971 00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 2: Sale, sale, unless, unless we're trying to get people fired, 972 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:23,799 Speaker 2: because if you're sitting fifty million dollars on the bench, 973 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 2: somebody gotta go. Somebody got to answer to that. And 974 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 2: not that Penix wouldn't be a you know, an upgrade 975 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 2: or whatever, but you're paying Kirk fifty million dollars to 976 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:36,280 Speaker 2: play quarterback right now. He struggled with this game, Sure, 977 00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 2: you got to stick with him. He's also thrown for 978 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 2: five hundred in a game, so you have to stick 979 00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 2: with him. And if you concede that he's not the 980 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 2: guy right now, which I don't think is the right 981 00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 2: way to go about it, somebody gotta go. Richard. 982 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold has the Minnesota Vikings out to a ten 983 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 1: and two start. I don't think many people saw this coming. 984 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 1: He is completely rejuvening his career. After bouncing around from 985 00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 1: team to team over the last couple of seasons, it 986 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 1: seems like he's found a home in Minnesota. The problem 987 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:10,400 Speaker 1: is Minnesota just spent a top first round pick and 988 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,760 Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy who went down with the injury this year. 989 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,279 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold's going to be a free agent at the 990 00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,280 Speaker 1: end of the season, is undoubtedly going to want to raise. 991 00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 2: The Vikings. 992 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:24,160 Speaker 1: Should give this man a raise and bring him back 993 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,400 Speaker 1: by or sell bye bye. 994 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 2: You go with the known commodity over the potential unknown. 995 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:34,640 Speaker 2: And I think he'll be fine, you know, I don't think. Yeah, 996 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:36,399 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know what he'll ask for, 997 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:41,840 Speaker 2: but I'm sure he won't. I'm not sure about anything, 998 00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,920 Speaker 2: because you deserve what we deserve. They go to the playoffs. 999 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 2: If they somehow make a deep run into the playoffs 1000 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,120 Speaker 2: and you don't bring him back, that would sound pretty 1001 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:53,160 Speaker 2: dumb to me. But we have to figure out what 1002 00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 2: the number is. You know, is it thirty five million, 1003 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:58,960 Speaker 2: is it forty million? Is it fifty million? Now? Is 1004 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,920 Speaker 2: it a year to year d and you're just grooming 1005 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 2: McCarthy to replace him? But I don't think you go 1006 00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,799 Speaker 2: into the year next year with rehabbing McCarthy as your 1007 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:11,799 Speaker 2: number one quarterback if you've made a deep playoff run 1008 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 2: with Sam Darnold, I think that would be a mistake. 1009 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 2: And I think, you know, the team and the fans 1010 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,400 Speaker 2: would want to see Sam Donald run it back again 1011 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 2: if they're able to do something in the playoffs. Now, 1012 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:25,760 Speaker 2: if they have a first a one and done playoff run, 1013 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:30,080 Speaker 2: who knows. You know, it's still been a pretty good season, 1014 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 2: a pretty successful season by most metrics, So I don't know. 1015 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:38,799 Speaker 2: I think I think I buy that they should bring 1016 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 2: him back. 1017 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,120 Speaker 1: We already talked about the Detroit Lions and their injuries. 1018 00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:46,240 Speaker 1: Richard they've faced tough opponents coming up. We've already discussed 1019 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:50,480 Speaker 1: that too. Buy or sell. The Lions will not have 1020 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:54,520 Speaker 1: the one seed in the NFC when all is sudden done. 1021 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:04,919 Speaker 2: By no so so sell that, Sell that, Metchell, sell 1022 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 2: that because they're a tough team, but they're gonna be 1023 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 2: beat the crap one into the playoffs. They're gonna need 1024 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,440 Speaker 2: to buy. They're gonna they're gonna work their behinds off 1025 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:16,399 Speaker 2: to get it because with that schedule, it's just a 1026 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:20,319 Speaker 2: rough and ragged season at the end, and then to 1027 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:23,719 Speaker 2: end it with San Francisco in Minnesota. 1028 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 1: Minnesota, it's a galllet, it's a gollleut and and and 1029 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna be beat up. 1030 00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 2: So I think they can find a way to get 1031 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,719 Speaker 2: get it done. You know, I gotta go look at 1032 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 2: Philly's schedule and see who they have. I think they 1033 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:42,480 Speaker 2: play the Commanders again, But yeah, I think they can 1034 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:44,359 Speaker 2: figure out a way to win those games, especially if 1035 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 2: they win against Green Bay. I think they they'll have 1036 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:53,240 Speaker 2: some answers for Buffalo. It's not in Buffalo, thank goodness, 1037 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 2: and and it's in Detroit that that'll change some things 1038 00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,359 Speaker 2: for me. I think they can go to Chicago and 1039 00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:01,840 Speaker 2: win the little turmoil going on there in San Francisco's 1040 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:04,280 Speaker 2: you know, Ben beat up, but they'll probably be getting 1041 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 2: healthier at that point. Minnesota will be fighting for their 1042 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 2: lives at the end. So it's gonna be tough, but 1043 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 2: they can do it. It is gonna be tough, Richard. 1044 00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 1: I feel like I know the answer to this one, 1045 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:18,440 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna ask it anyways. On we heard on 1046 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,120 Speaker 1: Monday Night Football to Night, Troy Aikman was talking about 1047 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:23,319 Speaker 1: playing in the snow. We played one time in the 1048 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 1: snow when he played for Dallas, and he said it 1049 00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:29,279 Speaker 1: was the most funny has ever had. That was because 1050 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:30,919 Speaker 1: he was a quarterback and he said no one else 1051 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,279 Speaker 1: could really move, so he was just doing his same 1052 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 1: thing and it was just a slower game. But Richard, 1053 00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 1: I know you've had experience playing in the snow. I 1054 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:42,279 Speaker 1: know you've had one game against Minnesota that probably was 1055 00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:45,320 Speaker 1: some of the worst conditions you've ever played in your life. 1056 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,920 Speaker 1: But buy or sell playing football in the snow is 1057 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:49,640 Speaker 1: indeed fun. 1058 00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:52,759 Speaker 2: Sell the heck out of that. Sell it all, sell 1059 00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 2: it all, don't leave, don't leave any crumbs. I played corner, 1060 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,719 Speaker 2: the hardest position on the field. So you're telling me 1061 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:03,760 Speaker 2: it's the worst conditions. You can move in one slip 1062 00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:07,480 Speaker 2: and it's over, and you got to try to walk on. 1063 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:09,880 Speaker 2: You got to try to ice skate and cover receivers 1064 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 2: that you don't know which direction they're going. They can 1065 00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 2: turn on them die and if you make one mistake, 1066 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:19,439 Speaker 2: it's over. Short quarterback, it's fun. Hey, they're not pass 1067 00:57:19,520 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 2: rushers can get there as quick. You probably get hit 1068 00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 2: a lot less. Your receivers are running slow, so it's 1069 00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 2: easier to hit them on the run. Cool. Not at 1070 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:33,160 Speaker 2: my position. My position, it makes it even more stressful 1071 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:36,280 Speaker 2: and even more chaotic. Sale. 1072 00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:41,280 Speaker 1: We'll have to take Troy Aikman up on that. 1073 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 2: Then, very sure. 1074 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 1: We got to move to your power ranks here. Man, 1075 00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 1: this is the part of the show that I want 1076 00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 1: it again. I'm giving you this Honolulu Blue watch for 1077 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 1: you to wear on Thursday and hope that you'll continue 1078 00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:57,360 Speaker 1: to show love to my team. 1079 00:57:58,040 --> 00:57:58,360 Speaker 2: Richard. 1080 00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:00,160 Speaker 1: How do you stack them this week? 1081 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:06,320 Speaker 2: This week, Mitchell, I'll go with your Honolulu Blue Detroit Lions. 1082 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:10,000 Speaker 2: At one, I was lied to watch the Kansas City 1083 00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 2: Chiefs play the Raiders. I don't think they should have 1084 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 2: won that game. But they did win that game, so 1085 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 2: what they should happen did happen. But I can't put 1086 00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 2: them at two right there with that performance. I'll give 1087 00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:24,560 Speaker 2: Buffalo that nod even though they have two losses. In 1088 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 2: Kansas City only has one. I know people are gonna 1089 00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:33,400 Speaker 2: talk about that. Kansas City at three. Actually where am I? Yeah? Actually? 1090 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:37,919 Speaker 2: Actually Philadelphia at three, Kansas City at four. Wow. Yeah, 1091 00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,880 Speaker 2: Philadelphia beating Baltimore was a big deal. So I'll put 1092 00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 2: Philadelphia at three, Chiefs at four, Green Bay at fix 1093 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:53,240 Speaker 2: so we can have a top five matchup in our 1094 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 2: power rankings this week. 1095 00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:58,680 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm sure the Steelers fans in Minnesota fans will 1096 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 1: feel slighted, but we can't fit everyone in there that 1097 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:01,920 Speaker 1: we can't. 1098 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,400 Speaker 2: Feel everybody, and somebody will come out this week, somebody 1099 00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 2: will fall through. Well, let's Desroit loses and they'll stay. 1100 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:12,880 Speaker 1: But well, Richard, that concludes. That concludes week thirteen.
