23
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 4: Look, we went from a machine from nineteen ninety three.

24
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,560
Speaker 4: We went from a machine from like og Bush era

25
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 4: presidency to a Bill Clinton presidency machine over here like that,

26
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 4: And that's fine, it's not there's nothing to do with

27
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 4: any of that stuff. I'm just saying I can actually

28
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,639
Speaker 4: push the buttons and it shouldn't sweak out on us

29
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 4: like it did the last few weeks. I mean it

30
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 4: was bad. It was breaking down right before our eyes.

31
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 4: Has even called an instant replay two.

00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 2: Oh version two the sequel.

33
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,840

34
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 4: are usually better, you.

00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 4: hint to one.

41
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, the great sports talk radio debate of whether

42
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 3: that movie is or isn't a Christmas movie.

43
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 4: Oh, there will be no debate tonight. Let me tell

44
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 4: you something, or I will bring out the big guns

45
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 4: from die Hard, because that is a Christmas movie. If

00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,160

00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 4: Don't get smart with me like that, Kevin, How dare

73
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 4: you just because you're a lead and have been leading

74
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 4: since like week one?

75
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 2: Come at him. I'm a journalist. I'm just asking questions here.

76
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know that's all it is. Well, when you

77
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 4: know the answers to these questions.

78
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 2: Is the problem right here?

79
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 4: Necessarily you have the transcription. All right, let's get things started.

80
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 4: As mentioned, we got to start with first off in

81
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 4: some college football, that's.

82
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 3: Wrong Bloomer Center, I would say, so, by the way,

83
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: I'll start with this. It might be a big sigh

84
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 3: of relief in Tuscaloosa because if Alabama finds a way

85
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: to lose this game. As odd as it might sound,

86
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 3: I think the noise around Kailn de Bor and whether

87
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 3: or not he would be going to Michigan will be

88
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 3: even louder. Yeah, because now he's just sitting there and

89
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: there's nothing left to do. And I know he denied it.

90
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 3: He says, I'm not talking to anybody. My people aren't

91
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 3: talking to anybody. But there's a report that came out

92
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 3: on Friday afternoon that they are going full board, balls

93
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 3: to the wall all day long, going after Kailyn de Bor,

94
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 3: the full court press, despite the fact that he's still

95
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 3: coaching in the CFP and has now advanced.

96
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,119
Speaker 4: Honestly, if I'm killing Deborne again or whatever they're calling him,

97
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 4: because he was well, he was lifeless in the first quarter.

98
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 4: Apparently he was on the verge of being fired before

99
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 4: the game was over, and then they won. So everything's fine.

100
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 4: Now if I end up winning this thing, I'm actually

101
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 4: going to leave and go to Michigan. Just despite all

102
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 4: the people that were down on me in Tuscaloosa all

103
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 4: season long, all the doubters, all the haters, all the

104
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 4: detractors out there and hate through you. I've had enough.

105
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 3: I as weird as it sounds at him. And this

106
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 3: goes back to even last season, and I say they struggled.

107
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 3: They were nine to three last year too. By the way, Yeah,

108
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 3: I'm at Alabama backer or a fan at this point

109
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 3: in time, like I've jumped on to the evil Empire now?

110
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 2: Is it because Saban left? Yeah?

111
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 3: And I think it's mostly because and maybe it's my

112
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 3: old West Coast Pac twelve roots. Even though kivin the

113
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 3: Boor is a Midwest guy generally speaking. He came to

114
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 3: the University of Washington, had a great run with him,

115
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 3: took him to the National Championship Game with they lost

116
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 3: to Michigan. So I don't know if I want to

117
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 3: call him a sympathetic figure. He's well compensated, he's you know,

118
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 3: coaching one of the great programs in college football, but

119
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 3: because of all the hate that he received, to your point,

120
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 3: from a lot of Bama people, and because he didn't

121
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 3: have a phenomenal start, even though most people were kill

122
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 3: to be nine and three and consecutive seasons.

123
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 4: Hey, is it okay they got into college football playoff

124
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 4: now at nine and three, since they won a game,

125
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 4: since they already took out Oklahoma? Is it all right now?

126
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 2: Is everybody okay the ends justify the means on that one.

127
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 3: Well, I would say, by the way I said last week,

128
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 3: and we debated this, I was like, I'm fine with

129
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 3: Alabama getting in with the nine and three lware because

130
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 3: I'm a resume guy over an eye test guy.

131
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 4: You just didn't think they would actually do it.

132
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they would, but I thought they were

133
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 3: deserving I show their resume.

134
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 4: I heard Notre Dame people during this game being like

135
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 4: Notre Dame would run both these teams off the field,

136
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 4: and it's like, oh, cool, cool, Just like you did

137
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 4: against Miami and just like you did against Texas A

138
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,679
Speaker 4: and m oh no, your best wins were close losses

139
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 4: to good teams.

140
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 2: That was in Week one and week two. We're so

141
00:05:59,160 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 2: much better now.

142
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 4: Talking about old stuff.

143
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the problem with my argument, Adam and I

144
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 3: have this all the time when people argue about who's

145
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 3: playing better now versus the resume, it's like your resume is,

146
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 3: it's a totality of the entire schedule. I can acknowledge

147
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 3: that teams can get better as the season goes on,

148
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 3: but we can't act like games in September didn't It

149
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 3: didn't happen.

150
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 4: Well, they didn't have one of their better opponents later

151
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 4: in the season. Maybe if they did, that would have

152
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 4: helped them out. Maybe if they had a big victory

153
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 4: later in the season who are really close lost later

154
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 4: in the season instead of too earlier in the season,

155
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 4: they'd have a better argument. Right now, but I feel

156
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 4: like Alabama's proven they belong in the tournament with what

157
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 4: they were able to do tonight. I mean, that was impressive,

158
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 4: down seventeen to nothing in the eye of the Storm

159
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 4: and the dragons Layer in the lions Den, whatever you

160
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 4: want to call it. In Oklahoma, who had beaten in

161
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 4: the last two years now, Kevin.

162
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 3: Now, I don't know if I can. You know, Alabama

163
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 3: has some experienced players, a couple of holdovers from the

164
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 3: saving years, obviously with the portal has obviously affected that

165
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 3: a lot, and so it's hard to say like, well,

166
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 3: one program knows how to win and one doesn't.

167
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's.

168
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 3: Necessarily fair, but you do see certain players in certain

169
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 3: situations who react in pressure moments. So I look at

170
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 3: Jametier pick the pick six. All of a sudden, the

171
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 3: pressure is bearing down on you. You were up seventeen

172
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 3: to nothing, now it's seventeen to ten. You throw a

173
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 3: pick six, and your elite as a race before halftime,

174
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 3: Oklahoma's punter mishandled that punt. It was a clean snap.

175
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 3: He just happened to bobble it. They didn't end up

176
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 3: giving up a touchdown, but they gave up a field

177
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 3: goal that made it seventeen to ten at that point

178
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 3: in time. Tate Sindell, the best kicker in college football

179
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 3: all season long, never missed, misses one with three minutes

180
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 3: to go, and then misses another one with about ninety seconds.

181
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 2: Ago that effectively put it away.

182
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 3: A big drop pass in the second quarter after Johnmetier

183
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 3: scrambled away from a from a defender. So all these

184
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 3: big plays Oklahoma seemed to not be making well. Alabama

185
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 3: has freshman receivers picking balls off of the helmets of

186
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 3: defensive backs, just making every play necessary. I don't know

187
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 3: if it's something about the DNA of Alabama and their

188
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 3: program in his or just this game Oklahoma didn't perform.

189
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 3: But that's kind of one of the things that came

190
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 3: to my mind. All the big plays that needs to

191
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 3: be made, Alabama made them, and all the mistakes Oklahoma

192
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 3: made them at the most inopportune times.

193
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 4: Well, and I tend to not give people that get

194
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 4: too much credit to begin with anymore. I don't want

195
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 4: to heap any more praise his way and Petros may

196
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 4: hate me for this, but try to bite a real show.

197
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 4: But I thought Kirk Herbstree put it best in the

198
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 4: second quarter where he said, it's a reverse of what

199
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 4: happened when Bama lost to Oklahoma. Yes during the regular season,

200
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,199
Speaker 4: where Bbama was making the errors in that game, Oklahoma

201
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 4: was taking advantage with short fields, special teams errors from Bama.

202
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 4: Tonight it totally flipped around. He was right, That's how

203
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 4: it went.

204
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, Because if you want to look back at the numbers,

205
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 3: like Alabama moved the ball up and down the field

206
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 3: against a really good Oklahoma defense in that game a

207
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 3: few months ago. The problem was they just had inopportune

208
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,319
Speaker 3: turnovers at the wrong time. They lost what was a

209
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 3: twenty three to twenty one.

210
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 4: And they had like two hundred more yards out there.

211
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, they out I think they game him like four

212
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 3: hundred and something yards to two hundred and seven or something.

213
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: It wasn't even close.

214
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 3: They were able to move the ball at will, they

215
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 3: just couldn't cash in when they needed to. So a grant,

216
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 3: I don't want to take credit away from Oklahoma because

217
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 3: obviously you have to make plays too, but Alabama shot

218
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 3: themselves in the foot. If you went back and watched

219
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 3: that game or remember how that game played out, you

220
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,439
Speaker 3: could have conceivably seen Alabama finding way to win this game,

221
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 3: which is why for the majority of this week, and

222
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 3: I don't know what the final line was. Before the

223
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 3: majority of the week, Alabama was a slight favorite, and

224
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 3: then at one point in time, Oklahoma actually became a favorite.

225
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 3: I don't know if too much money was coming in

226
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 3: on the tide or what.

227
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 4: I saw earlier. Today it was Bama minus two minus two, and.

228
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 2: That line moved all over the place this week.

229
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 4: Then yeah, it was going back and forth. I think

230
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 4: some people felt like Bama has more pedigree or has

231
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 4: more of a track record in big games, but again

232
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 4: that was the Nick Saban regime. Calyndbor had to prove

233
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 4: himself in this ball game. He did. After being down

234
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 4: seventeen to nothing, they faced all the adversity and they

235
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 4: came back and were able to pull out a thirty

236
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 4: four to twenty for win in impressive fashion. To the point,

237
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 4: I don't know they might give Indiana some trouble at

238
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 4: the Rose Bowl. I could see that actually, and I

239
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 4: love Indiana.

240
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, the issue is and you have to be able

241
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 3: to I think if you're gonna be able to beat Indiana,

242
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:14,719
Speaker 3: you have to be able to run the ball a

243
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 3: little bit. And Alabama, even in spite of the success

244
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 3: they had today and ty Simpson played well, their offense,

245
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 3: by the way, had not played well down the stretch

246
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 3: of the season, which will put credence to the argument

247
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 3: of people who live in the camp of what have

248
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 3: you done for me lately? Alabama didn't look good the

249
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 3: last month of the regular season, a lot of close victories.

250
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,719
Speaker 3: They got run off the field against Georgia. You know

251
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 3: how they were going to respond in this game was

252
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 3: going to go a long way, and ty Simpson, for

253
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 3: his part, looked really, really good. A couple of freshman

254
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 3: receivers making plays out there. It was great. But they

255
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 3: still weren't able to run the ball, and I think

256
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 3: that's going to be an issue as they continue to

257
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 3: go deeper into the postseason. I don't think they're gonna

258
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 3: go much deeper. We're gonna have a while to stew

259
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 3: on this and talk more deeply about this their matchup

260
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,479
Speaker 3: against Indiana and the Rose Bowl, But just a snapshot

261
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 3: view of it, Alabama's inability to run the ball and

262
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 3: control the line of scrimmage I think is going to

263
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 3: be a real issue against an inn Yana team that

264
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 3: thrives at doing that.

265
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: Well.

266
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 4: No one's gonna believe me, but a buddy asked me

267
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 4: earlier tonight, who do you like in this ball game?

268
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 4: And I said, I like Bama because I trusted their offense,

269
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,040
Speaker 4: believe it or not, more against Oklahoma's really good defense.

270
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 4: Then I trusted Oklahoma's offense being able to move the

271
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 4: ball in Bama even though their defense isn't as good.

272
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 4: I just Jometereer what we've been seeing from him for

273
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 4: months since he came back off the thumb injury. They're

274
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 4: not able to run the ball either unless it's him,

275
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 4: and he makes mistakes passing the football too, So I

276
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 4: wasn't shocked. I was a little bit surprised, though, down

277
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 4: seventeen to nothing on the road to do it in

278
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 4: the fashion they did tonight.

279
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 3: The crazy part is I don't think John Materiri even

280
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 3: played that poorly. Now, he wasn't great, and he was

281
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 3: inaccurate on a few throws. Yeah, but I mentioned there

282
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 3: was a couple of drop passes that really stymy slowed down,

283
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 3: a couple of drives that Oklahoma could have ended up

284
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 3: getting points out of. I thought John Matier, for you know,

285
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 3: his efforts, played as well as you can reasonably ask

286
00:11:58,760 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 3: him to play in a game.

287
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 2: With this this high.

288
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 3: So I don't even know if I can pin this

289
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 3: loss on his individual performance.

290
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 2: To be honest with.

291
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 4: You, it's really just it's three or four plays, that's it,

292
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 4: and he was really solid outside of that. But one

293
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 4: is so consequential with a pick six, passing its to

294
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:17,319
Speaker 4: the wrong guy who was a receiver wasn't exactly in

295
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 4: the right spot either, that happening, That's the glaring mistake.

296
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,199
Speaker 4: Everybody's gonna focus in on and say he got out

297
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 4: dueled by ty Simpson. Ty Simpson, by the way, was

298
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 4: throwing it up to that freshman receiver who was turning

299
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 4: every which way to come down with those footballs. That

300
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 4: was an impressive performance, his first two touchdowns of his

301
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 4: young career coming in this ball game.

302
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

303
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 3: And by the way, Ryan Williams, who was kind of

304
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 3: the star receiver last year, the star freshman, came out

305
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: of nowhere eighteen years old. People were like, this guy

306
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:47,719
Speaker 3: can be a top five pick if he came out

307
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 3: right now. This year has been a no show. He

308
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 3: had one reception for five yards, which was a little

309
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 3: dump ball path passed I think early in the fourth quarter.

310
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 2: For him to be a complete.

311
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 3: Non factor in this game and still have Alabama win

312
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 3: by ten points, I can see where there would be

313
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 3: a level of optimism for them going into that game

314
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 3: against Indiana going next week at the Rose Bowl. I

315
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 3: can certainly see why you'd have optimism for that because

316
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,199
Speaker 3: they're one of their best offensive players, their best individual

317
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 3: skill player basically was a no show and it didn't

318
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 3: even matter.

319
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 4: Well. The thing with Bama to me is and Maybe

320
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 4: this is stereotyping them and just thinking about all the

321
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 4: past success with Nick Saban, but you think about the

322
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 4: recruiting with them, and talent's never really an issue. Now

323
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 4: things have changed an il transfer portal. It's not the

324
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 4: same game that it used to be. And that's why

325
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 4: Nick Saban probably wisely got out while the getting was good. Yep,

326
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 4: kept his legacy intact, and he's the all time goat

327
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 4: in my mind, at least a modern football in college football.

328
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 4: But I still feel like they have a talent advantage

329
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 4: over a team like Indiana. Indiana, though may have a

330
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:54,319
Speaker 4: substantial coaching advantage. We shall see. Those guys are tough.

331
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,839
Speaker 4: I just feel like it's still Alabama. Like when they

332
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 4: lose games, I usually feel I get self inflicted with them.

333
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 4: You know, it's never that they didn't have the guys,

334
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 4: it's just that they weren't able to scheme you up

335
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 4: well enough.

336
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if it's substantial. I do love

337
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 3: Kurtzignetti in the job that he's done, but I don't

338
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 3: think we should downplay Kailndbor, who has won literally every

339
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 3: single place that he has gone similar to kurtz Signetti,

340
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 3: every level those guys have coached at those guys have

341
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 3: excelled and been able to win at a high level.

342
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 3: I will say this like I mean Indiana. You would

343
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 3: say Ohio State had every individual talent advantage over Indiana too,

344
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 3: and that was a nip and tug game, and Indiana

345
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 3: found a way to make the plays that matter and

346
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 3: to be able to win. It's not always necessarily talent

347
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 3: that wins out, by the way. I remember us talking

348
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 3: about that game and I said, I thought Ohio State

349
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 3: would win because I thought their talent would end up

350
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 3: winning out, and that just wasn't necessarily the case. So

351
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 3: it's Alabama's going to We have the better athletes, doesn't

352
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 3: necessarily mean they're the better football team.

353
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 4: No, no doubt. It's interesting to think about those two

354
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 4: coaches now matching up in the Rose Bowl. And I'm

355
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 4: more confident in Signetti than Kaitlin de boor am I

356
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 4: drinking some of the Bama kool aid and being a

357
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 4: hater now too, Like they've poisoned me somehow, where I'm

358
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 4: out on a guy who actually has more of a

359
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 4: track record than Signetti does in these positions, with what

360
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 4: he did in Washington not that long ago.

361
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 3: No, because if you look at how things have shaped

362
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 3: up these last couple of years, and if you just

363
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 3: take last year out and just put in this season.

364
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 3: We talked about Bama having their share of struggles, losing

365
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 3: against Florida State to start the season, having three losses,

366
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 3: getting blown out in the in the SEC Championship game,

367
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 3: slogging their way through the last month of the regular season,

368
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 3: finding ways to win well. Indiana say, for a couple

369
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 3: of games, we're just blowing the doors off of everybody.

370
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 3: You got the close Penn State victory that they had,

371
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 3: but they found but they found a way to get that.

372
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 2: Other than that, they ran everybody.

373
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 3: Off off of the field at the exception of Ohio State,

374
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 3: which was a nip and tut game, and they made

375
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 3: all the big plays that were necessary. So if you

376
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 3: just look from a resume and eyeball test situation, Indiana

377
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 3: looks like the team that should be, should be favored,

378
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 3: and should be should win this game.

379
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 2: So right, so I certainly understand that outlook.

380
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 4: No definitely to be favored. They're a monster. Signetti has

381
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 4: them as a well oiled machine right now. They look

382
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 4: like they have zero weaknesses. Now, last season a lot

383
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 4: of us felt like that. With Oregon, they got the

384
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: week off and then they got smoked by Ohio State.

385
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 4: Now Ohio State goes on to win it all, and

386
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 4: they caught fire at the right time, and they had

387
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 4: all the talent in the world. They just hadn't put

388
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 4: it together. They hadn't peaked yet. They did it at

389
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 4: the right time. But you do wonder about the rest

390
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 4: versus rust. Even Orgon, I guess, has been working on

391
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 4: things to stay in rhythm this week where they had

392
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 4: like a mock type of games setting out there their

393
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 4: field and autsin just to be ready for later today,

394
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 4: I guess. But when it surprised you, Kevin that it

395
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 4: wasn't necessarily the game that was the most interest to

396
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 4: me tonight, but like the game within the game, as

397
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 4: in a guy who used to beef with the game

398
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 4: in fifty cents.

399
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: You know, it's so funny.

400
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 3: I saw that and for some reason I thought of you,

401
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 3: and I said, Adam was gonna find a way to

402
00:16:58,560 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 3: bring this into the show tonight.

403
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 4: Way they brought him into the arena.

404
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 2: What am I supposed to do?

405
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 4: I'm shoehorning this in Look. They played one of my

406
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 4: favorite songs many men, many many, many, many men.

407
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 2: He come washing and commanders are running back.

408
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 3: Last year they got shot and then he came back

409
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 3: and like week seven or eight, and he came out

410
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 3: when they introduced him to that song.

411
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 4: Okay, that is gangster. No, that is gangster. That's hard.

412
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 4: But that first album from what two thousand and three,

413
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 4: two thousand and four, get Richard die Trine. It's all

414
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 4: produced by doctor Dre. It's perfect, it's beautiful. He comes

415
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 4: out and I guess that was the rallying cry song

416
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 4: that Oklahoma was using all season. He comes out, he's

417
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 4: singing the song They're down by ten. And I think

418
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 4: the funniest part was Chris Fowler felt the need to

419
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 4: say he just went straight white guy with it. I'm white.

420
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 4: I can say it too. Now you know, this isn't

421
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 4: the version with all the expletives. Just so you know, kids,

422
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,479
Speaker 4: everything's fine here. Don't worry. This isn't the original version

423
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 4: of that song.

424
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 2: Yes, of course did Mickey Mouse from up Top. I

425
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 2: have to tell you that, Chris, you know, come on now.

426
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 4: But somebody you tweeted it out because Oklahoma scored two

427
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 4: plays later. They went over about fifty yards after fifty

428
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 4: cent made his appearance, got a touchdown, and somebody said

429
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 4: fifty cent must have told Oklahoma he was gonna do

430
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 4: a doc about them if they didn't get it going.

431
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 2: I just.

432
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,360
Speaker 4: I thought it was really funny. And then somebody tweeted

433
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 4: out this Kevin and I don't know if this is

434
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 4: true or not. I don't know if this came from

435
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 4: fifty cent on Instagram. It's right in line with the

436
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 4: level of trolling that he always does, and God bless

437
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 4: him for it. But apparently his doc on Diddy is

438
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 4: doing such big numbers and has been rated number one

439
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 4: on Netflix. It's been bigger than Stranger Things. And there

440
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 4: was a post out there, and I'm not sure if

441
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 4: it's confirmed in one of his stories or on his Instagram,

442
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 4: but it's fifty on the phone with the caption saying,

443
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 4: I know Stranger Things is pissed they spent five hundred

444
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 4: million on this season only to be beat out by

445
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 4: Diddy doing Stranger Things. That's that's fifty.

446
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 2: I will certainly believe it. Yeah, I absolutely believe that.

447
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 4: Skip Bailists lost the crown of the best troll ever

448
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,640
Speaker 4: to fifty cent. And I don't know if he ever

449
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 4: gave it up because what he did to Floyd Mayweather

450
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 4: back in the day, this is what he lives for.

451
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 4: And even when you watch the doc, the first thing

452
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 4: you see, the first credit afterwards is fifty cent like

453
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 4: he wanted to make sure his name was all over it.

454
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. It was just fascinating.

455
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 4: I did not expect him to be there. I didn't

456
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,639
Speaker 4: know that was the rallying song, but I do love it.

457
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 3: And now, well, one thing he wasn't was a good

458
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 3: luck charm because it certainly it didn't work.

459
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 4: So, you know, a little momentum for a second.

460
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 3: And fifty cash paycheck whatever they whatever, the Sooners paid

461
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 3: him to come out and do his little mini concert

462
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 3: or whatever you want to call it. Many I'm just

463
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 3: want to plane back to wherever, Oklahoma, staying home in Norman. Sorry,

464
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 3: Chris Pink.

465
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 4: Many men wanted to get a hold of that kicker afterwards.

466
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 2: That's awful.

467
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 3: That's just again this I mean, that's basically Morton Anderson

468
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 3: all over or Gary Anderson, excuse me, with the vikings

469
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 3: all over again. This guy had one of the best

470
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 3: seasons a kicker has had in college football history. Has

471
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 3: gone viral because he wears like the short shorts and

472
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 3: it's a whole thing and he's got the stash and

473
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 3: just implodes.

474
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 4: And he missed a thirty six yarder that was in

475
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 4: question whether or not he actually missed it. But the

476
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,479
Speaker 4: whole ball has to be inside the extended upright right,

477
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 4: and apparently it wasn't. It was not from the officials

478
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 4: view and.

479
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 2: Can't be revealed.

480
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 3: The problem is, even if you do review it, like

481
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 3: I mean, with those angles, what can you really tell?

482
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not going to be definitive. If they had

483
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 4: called it good, they probably they wouldn't overturn it either,

484
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 4: even if they could review it. It was that close

485
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 4: of a kick.

486
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 5: We were feel glory.

487
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 4: They were sadly with three minutes left. That really could

488
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 4: have helped.

489
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 2: But roll tide, Jeff for more? For one more week

490
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 2: at least.

491
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, for one more week or two more, I guess.

492
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 2: I guess. We have a week off before we get

493
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 2: to the Rose Bowl.

494
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 4: Is it really a week off? And why aren't they

495
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 4: just playing at home? Why these teams in the first

496
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 4: round have home field, right and now we move back

497
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 4: to more traditional bull sites.

498
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 3: They want to pay respect to the bowls and make

499
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,959
Speaker 3: the bowls still seem important. So your Rose Bowls, your

500
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,160
Speaker 3: Sugar Bowls still going to be played on January first.

501
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 3: So that's why we have the delay and why we're

502
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 3: not playing this again next Friday or Saturday. They want

503
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 3: to make sure they keep some level of tradition in

504
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 3: college football and have these bowl games be on January first.

505
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 3: How this holds up once, I'm gonna say win. Not

506
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 3: if the playoff expands, we'll have to see.

507
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 4: Well, this was a good omen at least for the

508
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 4: first round with what three more games to go here?

509
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 4: Because last year all home teams won by double digits

510
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,479
Speaker 4: in the first round. This is only year two obviously,

511
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 4: of the twelve team playoffs.

512
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 3: We go back to the four team playoff and what

513
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 3: was it the first four or five years where every

514
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 3: game was a blowout, didn't matter if it was a

515
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 3: semi final, World championship game.

516
00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 2: It was bad.

517
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 4: We could not get a good game. And it wasn't

518
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 4: just your fault Washington going against Bama. Everybody was losing

519
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 4: that first game badly somehow. Yeah, all right, more college

520
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 4: football coming up a little bit later, Kevin.

521
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 3: Right, Yes, coming up in a little bit later but

522
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 3: coming up next. Ah, I guess one great football game

523
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 3: deserves another, right, Let's go back to Thursday night and

524

555
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 4: Christmas movies to reveal and geek news. But Kevin, we

556
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 4: had an NFL game on Thursday night and it felt

557
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,880
Speaker 4: like a Monday night football game. It was so good.

558
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 4: It didn't feel like a Thursday night game for once.

559
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 3: These Thursday night games, I feel like they've gotten better

560
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 3: in the last couple of years because I remember, like

561
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,880
Speaker 3: for the first ten years they sucked and then by

562
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 3: the time we got here too, you know, you get

563
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 3: to late to December, you'd have a bunch of like

564
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 3: terrible teams. You'd have like the Dolphins facing the Jaguars

565
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 3: and they both have four wins or something like that.

566
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 3: I think the stat was on Thursday night, this is

567
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 3: the first time that two to eleven win teams played

568
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,439
Speaker 3: each other on a Thursday night, So that tells you

569
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 3: how big the stakes were.

570
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 4: In this game, and it felt like a pseudo game

571
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 4: for the division title. It may end up going that way,

572
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 4: although if San Francisco wins out, they win the NFC West.

573
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 4: That's how's close things are right now. Absolutely, But we

574
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 4: talked about it a month ago probably, I think we

575
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 4: both felt like these two teams could be the best

576
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 4: two teams in the NFC, with the Rams and the Seahawks.

577
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 4: And after the Rams beat him up in La and

578
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 4: Sam Donald played that poorly. Sam Donald still had his

579
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 4: moments in this ball game, but he came through clutch

580
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 4: when he had to on that final drive to match

581
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 4: them and then get the two point conversion a win.

582
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 2: I was proud of them, you know, the Cole part.

583
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 3: So we talked about this last segment, talking about the

584
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 3: game that happened on Friday night between Alabama and Oklahoma

585
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 3: and how the first time they matched up, you know,

586
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 3: Alabama shot themselves in the foot so much and still

587
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,919
Speaker 3: barely lost that game, and they kind of corrected that

588
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 3: and found a way to win on Friday night. You

589
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,360
Speaker 3: kind of have the exact same theme when it comes

590
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,160
Speaker 3: to the Rams in Seattle. Like the Seattle Seahawks moved

591
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 3: the ball up and down the field against the Rams

592
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,439
Speaker 3: at Sofar when they played the first time earlier this season.

593
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 3: The problem is Sam Donald, like you mentioned, he turned

594
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 3: the ball over four times, four interceptions, and they still

595
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 3: had a chance to win that game with a field

596
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,360
Speaker 3: goal in the final seconds.

597
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:28,639
Speaker 2: They just happened to miss it.

598
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 3: You fast forward to Thursday night and all of a sudden,

599
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 3: the Rams are the ones who are making some mistakes.

600
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 3: They allow a punt return for a touchdown. Rashidi Rashisha

601
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 3: Hid by the way, someone I brought up at the

602
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,360
Speaker 3: trade deadline who will make a big impact for Seattle

603
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 3: ended up doing it with the return.

604
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,439
Speaker 2: There. Even Sam Donald, he overcame to your point, he

605
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 2: threw up, He threw.

606
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 3: Basically a pick six, He got tackled at the one

607
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 3: yard line and the Rams punched it in and then

608
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 3: he threw another interception in the red zone. That's a

609
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 3: fourteen point swing basically at that point in time, and

610
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 3: to your point, they found still found the way to

611
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 3: be able to win that game. That was incredible. That

612
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 3: was an incredible effort by Seattle to do that.

613
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 5: Well.

614
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 4: One point in the fourth quarter with the Rams up

615
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 4: by sixteen, Seattle only had a two percent chance of

616
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 4: winning the game. Odds that is, it wasn't exactly what

617
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 4: was the Giants Broncos game from earlier this season. The

618
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,679
Speaker 4: odds weren't stacked up against them to that degree, but

619
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 4: considering the stakes, considering the team they were going up against,

620
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 4: to come back like that with Matthew Stafford playing close

621
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 4: to a perfect football game out there with Puka Nakua

622
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 4: not exactly perfect off the field, but on.

623
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 3: The field, he's had a week, to say the least.

624
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's had a month. He's had a year. This week,

625
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 4: though it's the last couple of days. I will say

626
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 4: this though, How old is he? How old is he?

627
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 4: I don't I don't excuse all young behavior, but I

628
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 4: do try to be kind when I can, because I

629
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 4: remember how stupid I was when I was younger. And

630
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 4: I don't think he intentionally made the gesture knowing what

631
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 4: it meant.

632
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 3: He's twenty four years old, and I do believe that

633
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 3: he was. Probably it was just born out of ignorance

634
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: more than anything else. I don't think he had knowledge

635
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,239
Speaker 3: of what he was doing, and if he did, he

636
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 3: can't be that stupid.

637
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 4: Well, so the streamer, whoever was kind of setting him

638
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 4: up by going quick to You're like, now do this,

639
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 4: now do this motion, Now do this hand gesture. I

640
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,959
Speaker 4: might have fallen for it too. If I'm just playing

641
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 4: red Light green Light like that or Simon says do

642
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 4: this like that could happen. He apologized for it. Now

643
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 4: for him to make another mistake right after the game

644
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 4: is over and rip the officials again, which was the

645
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 4: initial infraction by him.

646
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 2: You're just not learning your lesson.

647
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 3: And by the way, this is a string of events

648
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 3: this season though, Adam too, because there was something that

649
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 3: didn't really get reported that much about a month ago

650
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,160
Speaker 3: where he was live streaming in the RAMS locker room,

651
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 3: which is something you're not supposed to do, and a

652
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 3: couple of veterans are like, dude, what are you doing.

653
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 2: Stop doing that, And so you.

654
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 4: Can't do that twenty four hour fitness you can get

655
00:27:58,600 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 4: in trouble exactly.

656
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 2: So people have some saus for that same that streamer,

657
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 2: Aiden Ross. I've heard of him. I don't know a

658
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 2: whole lot about him.

659
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,719
Speaker 3: He has a huge following, bigger than me, so whatever

660
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 3: by all means, he tried to bring him and his

661
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 3: crew into the RAMS facility, and the RAMS officials were like, no,

662
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 3: you didn't clear this. We're not just going to bring

663
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 3: some random streamers in here because you're Pookingaku and you

664
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,239
Speaker 3: played for the team. That's not how it works. So

665
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 3: they weren't allowed in. They do a stream somewhere else.

666
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 2: Anyway.

667
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 3: That's where he makes his comments that went viral this week,

668
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 3: talking about the officials, you know, wanting the spotlight on him, which,

669
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 3: by the way, I don't know if he's one hundred

670
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 3: percent wrong, at least at the very least, I know

671
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 3: there's a perception out there that there are certain officials

672
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 3: that do love to be in the limelight. The one

673
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 3: that sticks out to me the most is Gene Sterotor, who,

674
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 3: ironically enough, is now a TV if you want to

675
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 3: call it, star analyst, rules analysts, whatever you want to

676
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 3: call it.

677
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 4: For CBS worked out in his favor.

678
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 2: I guess yeah.

679
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 3: You remember, if you don't remember, there was a game

680
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 3: between the Cowboys and the Raiders some years ago, uh,

681
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 3: and there was a they still have the Chain Gang

682
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 3: at that point.

683
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 2: They don't have it is year now that everything's digital.

684
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 2: In the Chain Gang.

685
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 3: It was so close they couldn't determine whether or not

686
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 3: it was a first down. So Sterator has this giant

687
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 3: smug smile on his face, walks up with the index card,

688
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 3: puts it down, walks in front of the camera and

689
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 3: signals first down in favor of Dallas, and a lot

690
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 3: of it just seemed like grandstanding to a lot of

691
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 3: people that seemed it was very unnecessary.

692
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 4: Well, and it's not just unique to football. In baseball,

693
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 4: you get umps once in a while that are trying

694
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 4: to do their best Leslie Nielsen naked gun impersonation behind

695
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 4: the mound or really delaying a call to make it

696
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 4: more dramatic and to put more of a focal point

697
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 4: on them. And then, depending on if you want to

698
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 4: believe him or not, the phone for you. We've had

699
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 4: Tim Donahue on the show before a couple of different times,

700
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 4: but he wrote in his book that I think Dick

701
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 4: Bavetta and Joey Jr. We're watching footage of them TV

702
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 4: footage of themselves and seeing how they looked on camera,

703
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 4: and now you got and I love him. But Billy

704
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 4: Kennedy knows he's got this booming voice and could take

705
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 4: any of our jobs at any time. And we all

706
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 4: talk about it. Every broadcast broadcaster on the call or

707
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 4: play by play man talks about it. He almost hams

708
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 4: it up a little bit when he's going over to

709
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 4: review something. So I don't think to your point, like

710
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 4: you were saying, it would be that crazy to believe that.

711
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 4: Now should he have said.

712
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 2: It, of course not. It's ridiculous.

713
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 3: You know that you can't say these sort of things

714
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 3: about officials, even if it's true. There's a way to

715
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 3: be politically correct about the answer of Aiden Ross and

716
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 3: his boys are egging you on, and I was like, ah,

717
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 3: you know, I don't want to say anything to get

718
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 3: myself in trouble, so I'm not gonna say anything and

719
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 3: wink at the camera whatever you could do something like that.

720
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 3: But he's trying to be cool, and look, I think

721
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 3: he's kind of feeling himself too. He's one of the

722
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 3: best receivers in the NFL because by the way he

723
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 3: weathered all of that, all self inflicted, by the way

724
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 3: to have the best game of his life, which is

725
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 3: saying something. Because he's had a hell of a first

726
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 3: couple of years here in the NFL. He's gonna get

727
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 3: paid because talent gets paid regardless of any all field

728
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 3: issues that they have. But you know, he might not

729
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,719
Speaker 3: get paid as much as he's thinking, you know, or

730
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 3: the market might not be as robust because people are

731
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 3: gonna think about this sort of thing and think, yes,

732
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 3: talent does play, and if you have a certain amount

733
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 3: of ability, you know, we'll put up with so much.

734
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 3: But if you're a pr nightmare, a lot of teams

735
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 3: are gonna be shying away from wanting to bring you

736
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 3: in because they just don't want to have to deal

737
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 3: with the potential backlash.

738
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 4: This is something we should ask Brady Papinga about a

739
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 4: little bit later in the show here, because well, he

740
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 4: also played for the Rams back in the day for

741
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 4: a little bit. But also he knows situations like this

742
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 4: with guys chasing the limelight, and we could also ask

743
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 4: him about the officials. I guess here, but sure, like

744
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 4: on the field, he's unbelievable. Sometimes I don't know exactly

745
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 4: why he's so good and so elite. I'm looking at

746
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 4: him running, I'm like, Okay, he's not the fastest guy

747
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 4: out there. I don't know if his routes are the best.

748
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 4: His hands are really good, really strong. He's got a

749
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 4: great quarterback that's gonna win the MVP most likely in

750
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 4: Matt Stafford. But he just finds ways to get open.

751
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 4: There's certain guys like that. Even Jerry Rice ran a

752
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 4: four point six.

753
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 3: I'll say Jerry Rice was that Jerry Rice. He wasn't

754
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 3: jumping over people like Brandy Moss. He wasn't running away. Now,

755
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 3: he was good with the ball in his hands when

756
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 3: he would get hitting stride. But to your point, wasn't

757
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 3: the fastest, wasn't the tallest, wasn't the strongest.

758
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 2: Was he just found ways to get open.

759
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 4: Some guys are just so instinctual and just fine pockets

760
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 4: in the zone or able to get enough separation, or

761
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 4: they're just good enough route runners and they do everything

762
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 4: so well they don't really have a major weakness, even

763
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 4: if they're not elite elite to anything. He is a

764
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 4: very good athlete. Though we saw him. I think he

765
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 4: played in one of the NBA Celebrity Games during All

766
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 4: Star weekend. Not that anybody watched that.

767
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, Okay, sure they still do that.

768
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 4: Kevin Hart was out there somewhere, I think, but I

769
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 4: think he had a big throwdown and I was like, wow,

770
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 4: that actually looked like because I had seen in the

771
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 4: past with what's his name, formerly of Seattle, now with Pittsburgh,

772
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 4: the former wide receiver for the Seahawks now catching passes.

773
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 4: DK Metcalf is an athletic freak. And I saw him

774
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 4: dunk the basketball before, and you can see the separation

775
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 4: in athleticism between a guy like that dunking versus an

776
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 4: NBA player, and it's like, oh, you can tell it's

777
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 4: not the same Poka Dunky. It looked closer to an

778
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 4: NBA guy Dunky. I have to say, and I'm not

779
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 4: just talking about the vertical but the finesse of it,

780
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 4: the ease of it, the coordination of it. Coordination might

781
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 4: be a big part of maybe what I'm missing here

782
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 4: with him and why he is so damn dominant to

783
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 4: have two hundred and twenty five yards or whatever it

784
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 4: was and also catch no look passes for Matthew Stafford.

785
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 3: Well, to get back to how we open this thing

786
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 3: up talking about this potentially being a matchup between the

787
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 3: two best teams and the NFC coming out of this

788
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 3: game on Thursday night with just a handful of games left.

789
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 3: I mean, is that kind of the takeaway for you?

790
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 3: At the very least? Is there anybody else that's in

791
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 3: that discussion. I guess the only other teams that would

792
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 3: be up there will be Philadelphia if you want to

793
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 3: throw a green band.

794
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 2: Chicago record wise, they're up there too.

795
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 3: Do you see any of those teams, I guess, posing

796
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 3: much of a threat to either of those two or

797
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 3: do you think now based on the seating, it seems

798
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 3: like the Rams in Seattle, if they face face off

799
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 3: for a third time, is probably going to be in

800
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 3: an indivisional round, which would be a travesty, but that's

801
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 3: probably how things are set up at this point in time.

802
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,360
Speaker 3: But do you see any other team of the NFC

803
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:16,280
Speaker 3: being in their class?

804
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 4: Well, the forty nine ers being able to get to

805
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 4: the number one seed if they went out kind of

806
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 4: through a wrench in my thinking.

807
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 3: I guess the probingly about the forty nine ers is

808
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 3: people thought they'd have a good year this year, but

809
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 3: not because they're good, but because their.

810
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 2: Schedule is so weak.

811
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's kind of played itself out despite all

812
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 3: the injuries they've had. They have a mass unit on defense,

813
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 3: it's unrecognizable. They're the defensive units.

814
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 4: Well, but it's funny find themselves there.

815
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:39,759
Speaker 6: No.

816
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the one guy who's actually stayed relatively healthy.

817
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 4: Is the guy you expected to be injured in Christian McCaffrey.

818
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 4: So that's been huge for them. And now they got

819
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 4: their quarterback back in Purty, and I don't think there's

820
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,839
Speaker 4: any quarterback controversy going on anymore, like we talked about

821
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 4: maybe a month into the season. But I just think

822
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 4: the number one seed is such a big deal and

823
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 4: having to drop. Even though I think Seattle and the

824
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 4: Rams are better than the forty nine ers, if you

825
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 4: don't win the division, you're fifth in the NFC, You're

826
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,720
Speaker 4: a wild card team. The road is so much tougher

827
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 4: because of the way they slotted the divisions in two

828
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 4: thousand and two, with four teams in every division. I

829
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 4: think it screwed things up a little bit, and we've

830
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 4: seen this over the years. Speaking of Seattle, Yeah, you

831
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 4: can win the division at what seven and nine and

832
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 4: host a playoff game. I don't love that. So I

833
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 4: still feel like they better hope the forty nine ers

834
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 4: lose one of these two teams, because if not, the

835
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 4: Rams could look back at this as the reason they

836
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,359
Speaker 4: ended up not getting to the super Bowl. Honestly, that

837
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 4: may sound hyperbolic, but I thought they were good enough

838
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:48,319
Speaker 4: where if they had the number one seed and you

839
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,800
Speaker 4: had to go to LA the entire way, I felt

840
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 4: pretty confident that I would pick the Rams to come

841
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 4: out of the NFC. Now, if you've got to go

842
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:57,320
Speaker 4: out on the road, if they don't win the division,

843
00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 4: that's a whole different ball game.

844
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,919
Speaker 3: Absolutely, Up next to one of my favorite segments, Geek

00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:18,800

Speaker 2: and we have a lot of time. Let's go.

859
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,680

861
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: Cases lit'sten guys will be chose that.

862
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,759
Speaker 5: I've been chining online with fabs.

863
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,640

866
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 4: So it is time to release Adam's alternative twelve films

867
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 4: of Christmas Movies like Christmas Story, White Christmas, A Wonderful Life,

868
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 4: or even die Hard will be left off of this list.

869
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 4: And die Hard is a Christmas movie in my mind,

870
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 4: because I say, any movie that takes place during Christmas

871
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 4: can by definition be a Christmas movie.

872
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,760
Speaker 3: What if a portion of it takes place during Chrismas,

873
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 3: but it's not a dominant theme of said film.

874
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 4: Totally fine, Okay, you can stuff that in your stocking

875
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 4: and shut it. It's a stupid played out debate, that

876
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 4: whole die Hard thing. It's the new just ketchup along

877
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 4: on a hot dog during the holidays. I don't know.

878
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 4: Here's my twelve films. We start with this lethal weapon.

879
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 4: It's a Christmas movie and Joe Silver, the producer Joel Silver,

880
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 4: purposely placed movies during the season in hopes they would

881
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:57,400
Speaker 4: be played more, therefore more residual checks. This was planned

882
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:01,399
Speaker 4: that way. And Mel Gibson's Man By the Way, where

883
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 4: he twitches and jitters with his delivery. He might be

884
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 4: into a little bit of snow himself. And they do

885
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 4: start things off at a Christmas tree farm. That's number one.

886
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:15,439
Speaker 4: Number two, yep, I know a guy named Edward Scissorhands,

887
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 4: and that's a Christmas movie. It is. They even have

888
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,840
Speaker 4: a scene where he creates a white Christmas for the

889
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,399
Speaker 4: whitest of white women. Why Nona writer, She was white

890
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 4: hot and any gifts you got from her also might

891
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 4: be hot because she was a klepto back then. Batman

00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 2: I never saw it.

896
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 4: Remember that Nicole Kidman bought Tom Cruise lifts for Christmas

897
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 4: so he could be tall enough to kiss her under

898
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:59,319
Speaker 4: the tree. American Psycho with Christian Bale Christmas Movie. There's

899
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:03,200

900
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,520

904
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 4: eat Santa Claus doesn't mean it can't be a Christmas movie.

00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 3: It has been Soul lossince I've seen that movie, I

906

Speaker 4: Adam, Well, I don't know if I can say that anymore.

944
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:20,760
Speaker 4: After what happened.

945
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 2: Oh okay, last week, bandwagon yet again.

946
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:24,759
Speaker 4: You know what, We'll get into it. We'll get into it,

947
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 4: I'm sure here at some point.

948
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 3: Coming up, coming up in our next segment will be

949
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 3: Brady Papina, eight year NFL veterans Super Bowl champion with

Speaker 3: the Green Bay Packers, will hop on to talk a

951
00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 3: little CFP and NFL with us. But right now we

952
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:38,879
Speaker 3: got to get to the NFL six pack.

953
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 2: Let's go.

954
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 1: Mark time for the NFL six pack.

955
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 4: As you could have guessed, six categories involving the NFL,

956
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 4: starting with.

957
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 1: This one hot seed heat check.

958
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 4: Self explanatory.

959
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, coacher player under the most pressure this coming weekend, Adam,

960
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 3: you want to start, you want me to start.

961
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 4: I'll go here, all right. I'm gonna say the game

962
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 4: of football is on the hot seat for me. The

963
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 4: entire NFL is on the hot seat. After all the

964
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:12,919
Speaker 4: injuries we saw last week.

965
00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:14,360
Speaker 3: I thought you were gonna say, you're backing up with

966
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 3: the President said saying we need to change the name

967
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 3: of American football or something like that.

968
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,719
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm not going there, all right, I would not

969
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 4: do that. I'm still an NFL FI guy unless they

970
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 4: wanted to change it to NFL F Yeah, as the full.

971
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 2: Name, that's different.

972
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:36,400
Speaker 4: But with all the critical season ending and possible career

973
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,760
Speaker 4: altering injuries last week you got Michael Parson's torn ACL,

974
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes torn ACL, Davante Adams with the hammy, Christian

975
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:48,240
Speaker 4: Watson chest pain, maybe sore nipples. I think the Broncos

976
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,719
Speaker 4: gave him like a purple nurple. But earlier in the

977
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,480
Speaker 4: season you had these guys all tear their acls, Nick Bosa,

978
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 4: Malik Neighbors, Tyreek Hill, Tucker Kraft, zach Ertz, Martshawn Lattimore,

979
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 4: Najie Hair, and Daniel Jones. They both tore their achilles.

980
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 3: And by the way, Daniel Jones also had a broken

981
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 3: fibula that he had been playing going for god knows

982
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 3: how long leading up to the achilles.

983
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 4: There what is stud There's been like a Madden ambulance,

984
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:16,120
Speaker 4: just permanently parked in the middle of the field, ready

985
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 4: at all times to run over players and create new

986
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 4: injuries on their way to attending to the next hurt player.

987
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 3: Just plowing through the entire roster as they make their

988
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 3: way onto the field. That's basically what it is now.

989
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 4: According to the NFLPA figures three hundred and nine players

990
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,560
Speaker 4: have been placed on the IR through fifteen weeks, which

991
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 4: is actually slightly down from three hundred and nineteen through

992
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 4: fifteen weeks in twenty twenty four, but it's still way

993
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 4: up compared to two hundred and seventy four through this

994
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 4: point in twenty twenty three. Also, entering week fifteen, fifty

995
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 4: nine players were on the IR with torn knee ligaments,

996
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 4: and another eleven players have had their season's n due

997
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 4: to a torn Achilles tendon. Maybe we should hold off

998
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 4: on the whole eight eighteen game season idea, where I

999
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 4: think we're only five years in to seventeen game seasons.

1000
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:09,359
Speaker 4: Perhaps we should grow into it a little bit and

1001
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,960
Speaker 4: monitor the situation with the injuries and just see what's

1002
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 4: happening here, because I know they've gotten more protective with

1003
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 4: the players, yet guys are getting more hurt than ever.

1004
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,839
Speaker 4: It could just be they're too explosive for their own good.

1005
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 4: They've gotten too big, too strong, too fast. But unfortunately, though,

1006
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,799
Speaker 4: as you say all the time, Kevin as Rick Neuheisel

1007
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:32,240
Speaker 4: always says.

1008
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 2: The answer is money. Now, what's the question.

1009
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 4: It might be cynical, but I think it's just realistic

1010
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,360
Speaker 4: to assume we'll get to eighteen games and then twenty

1011
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:45,359
Speaker 4: game seasons in the next fifteen years because we prioritize

1012
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 4: money over everything else in the league. Will do some

1013
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 4: BS study where they say, there's no evidence that guys

1014
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,319
Speaker 4: getting are getting in car accidents every game that are

1015
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,040
Speaker 4: doing it more. There's no evidence that's actually proven out

1016
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 4: by the data that leads to more injuries according to

1017
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 4: our much very much so unbiased, impartial, independent investigations. That's

1018
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:04,360
Speaker 4: what they'll say.

1019
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and by the way, oh now look, I'll say

1020
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 2: this too.

1021
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 3: The players, if there are more games that are played,

1022
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:11,399
Speaker 3: the more money that comes in, they're more money that.

1023
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 2: They get too.

1024
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 3: But it seems like at least most of the players

1025
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,800
Speaker 3: that I have I guess unofficially pulled on this, the

1026
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,520
Speaker 3: great majority of them do not want extra games, even

1027
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:22,280
Speaker 3: if it comes with extra paycheck, because that's just extra

1028
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 3: wear and tear in an extra game where they can

1029
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 3: have a devastating injury that can cut into their career.

1030
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 2: So I certainly understand why they have that sentiment.

1031
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 4: You get injured, you're not gonna make as much money exactly.

1032
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 4: You see, contracts aren't as ironclad as they are in

1033
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 4: the NBA or MLB. What about your hot Sea heat

1034
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 4: check code.

1035
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,440
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and most

1036
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,480
Speaker 3: specifically Top Bowls if they find a way to potentially

1037
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 3: miss the postseason, which might happen now. By the way, Adam,

1038
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,360
Speaker 3: I'll tell you this. I said last week the Saints

1039
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 3: were coming and that they're bringing the brooms with them.

1040
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 4: Have few.

1041
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,319
Speaker 2: That's exactly what happened. Wow, so.

1042
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:58,719
Speaker 3: So as that happened with that result a couple of

1043
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 3: Tampa Bay losing to the foul Plkins last Thursday, it

1044
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 3: sets up an epic matchup for NFC South supremacy, a

1045
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:05,560
Speaker 3: matchup we.

1046
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 2: Were only going to see twice in the next three weeks.

1047
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:11,240
Speaker 3: Yes, Bucks and Panthers both have seven to seven records

1048
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 3: going into Sunday's matchup. And this is no disrespect to

1049
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,319
Speaker 3: your Panthers at them. They're playing with house money, I find,

1050
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,439
Speaker 3: to be honest with you, The over under coming into

1051
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 3: the season for them was six and a half victories.

1052
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 3: They've already passed that, so they've already had a great

1053
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 3: season on their part.

1054
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 2: It's great.

1055
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:27,359
Speaker 4: I still feel like I should take the under. I

1056
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 4: still feel like there's no way they can go over

1057
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:30,040
Speaker 4: that number.

1058
00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 3: They can lose half a game between now and Sunday.

1059
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,759
Speaker 3: I'd venture to guess the majority of the money came

1060
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,439
Speaker 3: in on the under, because honestly.

1061
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 2: I thought six and a half was optimistic.

1062
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 3: But they play well and find themselves at seven to

1063
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 3: seven with a chance to compete for the NFC South Championship.

1064
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 3: At this point in time, I think nobody expected Tampa

1065
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,440
Speaker 3: Bay to be here, though either you didn't expect Carolina

1066
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,399
Speaker 3: to be seven and seven. I think most people thought

1067
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:54,279
Speaker 3: at this point this season Tampa Bay will probably be

1068
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:56,200
Speaker 3: in a position where they can rest up some starters

1069
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,880
Speaker 3: in the last few weeks, get themselves into the postseason

1070
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,440
Speaker 3: and comfortably win the INN South. And that just has

1071
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 3: not been the case. Remember, there were six and two

1072
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 3: to start the season. People were talking about Baker Mayfield

1073
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,920
Speaker 3: potentially being an MVP candidate and all that. All that

1074
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,280
Speaker 3: has come crashing down the last two months of the season.

1075
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,920
Speaker 3: And I realize a lot of that is due to injury,

1076
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 3: and that's a valid reason, so I can definitely vouch

1077
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 3: for that. But people who have been long standy Buccaneer

1078
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:20,879
Speaker 3: fans and believe it or not, Adam, I know two

1079
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,360
Speaker 3: people who are very big Buccaneer fans.

1080
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 4: That must have been rough for you during the Super

1081
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 4: Bowl against your Raiders.

1082
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 1: You will not.

1083
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 3: Thankfully one of them I hadn't met yet now the

1084
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:30,759
Speaker 3: one still gives me crap to.

1085
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:31,359
Speaker 2: This day for it.

1086
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:34,359
Speaker 3: Trust Raiders, especially now that they've won two Super Bowl

1087
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,520
Speaker 3: since you know, one over the Raiders and then they

1088
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:37,720
Speaker 3: won the one a couple of years ago.

1089
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 2: Over Kansas City.

1090
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,880
Speaker 3: But so if you're a long standy Buck fan, they

1091
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 3: say this late season lol has been part of a

1092
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 3: disturbing trend for top bowls. So last year there were

1093
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,359
Speaker 3: four and six before finishing ten and seven. The year

1094
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:51,719
Speaker 3: before that there were four and seven before finishing nine

1095
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:53,799
Speaker 3: to eight. So this season they could end up being

1096
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 3: in the reverse where they started hot but then end

1097
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 3: up stumbling down the stretch. And each of those seasons

1098
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 3: they did end up winning the division. But Bucks fans

1099
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 3: feel that the team has weigh too many lolls during

1100
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 3: the regular season, too many losing streaks. There's a thought

1101
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 3: that top Bowles always does just enough to ensure that

1102
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:11,840
Speaker 3: he doesn't get fired at the end of the season,

1103
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:14,600
Speaker 3: that he's one of those type of coaches. So despite

1104
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 3: three straight division titles under Bulls, they've won four straight,

1105
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 3: but one of those was under Bruce Arians, so they've

1106
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 3: won three with Bowles as they head coach. I think

1107
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 3: he is most definitely on the hot seat here. We

1108
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,319
Speaker 3: can argue whether it's fair, maybe it's not, but it's

1109
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 3: definitely reality, and I think he knows that. Otherwise, I

1110
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 3: don't think he goes off on his team publicly the

1111
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,640
Speaker 3: way that he did after last week's lost.

1112
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:36,880
Speaker 4: Oh so, so, what do you mean? What did he say, Kevin?

1113
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 4: What happened post game?

1114
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:41,480
Speaker 2: Cuss words?

1115
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of them, basically saying, don't blame the coaches, man,

1116
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 3: We're doing our jobs.

1117
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,280
Speaker 2: The players got to go out there and play.

1118
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 3: We're doing the best weekend players got to go out

1119
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,160
Speaker 3: there and show up and execute. And it's very rare

1120
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 3: that you see a head coach say something like that.

1121
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 3: And when you start talking that sort of talk in

1122
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,480
Speaker 3: the public eye, I think you're kind of reaching desperation

1123
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 3: mode to a certain degree. Oh, this is as close

1124
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:03,319
Speaker 3: to a must win game for the Buccaneers as there

1125
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,040
Speaker 3: can be, because if you lose to the Panthers, there's

1126
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:06,959
Speaker 3: no guarantee you're gonna beat Miami.

1127
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:07,439
Speaker 2: The following week.

1128
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 3: Considering how inconsistent the Buccaneers have been this season, it's

1129
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 3: very much of the rum up possibility. You lose this

1130
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,479
Speaker 3: game on Sunday, lose to Miami in a couple of weeks.

1131
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,800
Speaker 3: You find yourself in a meaningless game in week eighteen

1132
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 3: because the Panthers are resting their starters on their way

1133
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 3: to an NFC South championship.

1134
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 2: And a home game. Kevin Adam can only hope and wish.

1135
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:27,200
Speaker 4: Of course, don't trying to make me go from six

1136
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 4: to midnight or whatever. It ain't that type of party.

1137
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,400
Speaker 4: I'm not buying back in. But I'll talk more about

1138
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:36,719
Speaker 4: that later. In a separate category is we still have

1139
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:40,520

Speaker 3: Also have the college football Playoff kicked off on Friday.

1168

Speaker 3: Got a few handful of games coming up later today

1169
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:02,279
Speaker 3: as well. We have one of our favorites from the

1170
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:05,239
Speaker 3: old FNA podcast Days and former Fox Sports Radios joining

1171
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:06,080
Speaker 3: us let's get right to it.

1172
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 2: Adam Alan, Dragan Dad.

1173
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:12,360
Speaker 4: Thank you, Gutty Well join the show right now. Is

1174
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,239
Speaker 4: a longtime friend and frequent guest back on the FNA

1175
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 4: podcast before he joined up with Fox Sports Radio, a

1176
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,400
Speaker 4: place he once worked at. But before that, he was

1177
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 4: a BYU cougar back when they would have been happy

1178
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,880
Speaker 4: just to be considered screw worthy by the playoff committee.

1179
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:29,280
Speaker 4: But he proved himself and was praised by the football

1180
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,080
Speaker 4: gods when he was crowned a Super Bowl champion with

1181
00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:35,759
Speaker 4: the twenty eleven Packers. It's the swollest, strongest man I've

1182
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 4: met that could flex his neck and snap a belt

1183
00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 4: in half like a staun in Beauty of the Beast.

1184
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,520
Speaker 4: It's big Brady papinga back on FNA and back on

1185
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio. Brady, good to hear from you, my friend.

1186
00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 8: It's always good to jump on guys, always fun.

1187
00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 4: Start with this. You know I saw you getting into

1188
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 4: it with a different Brady, Brady Quinn a little bit

1189
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 4: on X as both of your teams were left out

1190
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,480
Speaker 4: by the College Football Committee. Him with Notre Dame, you

1191
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 4: with BYU. What's the argument, I guess, or what's the

1192
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:09,279
Speaker 4: crux of the issue you guys were talking about are

1193
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:12,239
Speaker 4: bold games meaningless? And then also I need to know,

1194
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:15,759
Speaker 4: can you make a better case for BYU getting in

1195
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:16,759
Speaker 4: than Notre Dame.

1196
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,920
Speaker 8: Well, the first thing is the I don't know if

1197
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:22,480
Speaker 8: there was an argument, but it was a back and

1198
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:25,840
Speaker 8: forth because he made like a public service announcement for

1199
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:30,279
Speaker 8: Notre Dame almost I don't know, just claiming that it's

1200
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:33,960
Speaker 8: a good idea not to play. And I know Brady

1201
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,359
Speaker 8: really well and I know how competitive he is. I

1202
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:39,360
Speaker 8: know how much work he put into being a football player,

1203
00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:42,120
Speaker 8: and to hear that come out of him seems so

1204
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:46,680
Speaker 8: odd because players always want to play. I mean, think

1205
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 8: about it. I don't know you know about you guys.

1206
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 8: When I was growing up playing little league football, it'd

1207
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 8: be a little league game happening down the street. Guess

1208
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:58,560
Speaker 8: what I would go play. I wouldn't worry about oh, okay,

1209
00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:01,319
Speaker 8: that is just gonna affect me for tomorrow. No, I

1210
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:04,320
Speaker 8: just wanted to go play. And so all of a sudden,

1211
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:06,640
Speaker 8: you have a football team who's the whole purpose of

1212
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,239
Speaker 8: it is to play football that now doesn't want to

1213
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,799
Speaker 8: play and being celebrated about that. That makes sense to

1214
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:16,879
Speaker 8: people to KidSing no, And that was my whole point

1215
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:20,319
Speaker 8: to him, is that there's not any circumstance if you

1216
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:23,920
Speaker 8: want to be a true player to where not playing

1217
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,200
Speaker 8: is an option. Now. I get it if you're an

1218
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:30,600
Speaker 8: NFL caliber guy and you want to preserve your draft stock,

1219
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,840
Speaker 8: because that's a business decision, But that doesn't mean that

1220
00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 8: that person who's opting out should dictate for the whole

1221
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,879
Speaker 8: other team of players whether they or not basically play,

1222
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,359
Speaker 8: because I guarantee there's a lot of other classmen there,

1223
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 8: notre Dame, that are pissed off because they didn't get

1224
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:47,880
Speaker 8: the chance to continue to play and to continue to

1225
00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 8: develop their skills and to show themselves because guess what,

1226
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 8: every year is an audition for these guys with the NLI.

1227
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:56,640
Speaker 8: Every year they got to re up. Every year, they're

1228
00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 8: also auditioning for other teams if they don't resign them,

1229
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,640
Speaker 8: because there's not a guarantee every single year, every single

1230
00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:04,080
Speaker 8: player that played well is gonna come back if you know,

1231
00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 8: they find somebody in the portal that comes in and

1232
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 8: gives them a better chance to win. So I just

1233
00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:12,800
Speaker 8: look at it from that perspective where there's no way

1234
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:17,000
Speaker 8: in any world of being a player that it's good

1235
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:20,080
Speaker 8: not to play as a team, Like I said, if

1236
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 8: it's NFL guys, it's a different store. And you know,

1237
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,719
Speaker 8: he felt like it was different. You know. Let's you know,

1238
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,800
Speaker 8: the Bowl games are worthless and it's like, okay, I

1239
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:30,200
Speaker 8: guess every every game then that between quotations doesn't mean

1240
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 8: anything in the grand scheme of thing like springball, scrimmages whatever.

1241
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:37,520
Speaker 8: It is. Okay, all of a sudden, let's say your

1242
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:39,880
Speaker 8: team's out of contention for the playoffs, where you just

1243
00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:41,279
Speaker 8: get all of a sudden, you know, opt out of

1244
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,280
Speaker 8: the rest of the season. You know, where does it stop?

1245
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:45,719
Speaker 8: Like what are we talking about here? So to me,

1246
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 8: it just didn't make any logical sense from the perspective

1247
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:52,120
Speaker 8: of Brady Quinn, who I know is a phenomenal competitor,

1248
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 8: love to play the game played in Cleveland where they

1249
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:57,920
Speaker 8: never wear a playoff contention. So what I guess you

1250
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,400
Speaker 8: should have just opted out not to play they're out

1251
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:02,120
Speaker 8: of playoff contention? Did it make sense?

1252
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:03,839
Speaker 1: That was my beast.

1253
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:06,280
Speaker 3: Brady Popinga joining us here on the f Anda podcast.

1254
00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:09,719
Speaker 3: Super Bowl champion, eight year NFL veteran here joining us.

1255
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:11,920
Speaker 3: I don't know if I want to call it Devil's advocate,

1256
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 3: but I guess I can understand a certain degree if

1257
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,560
Speaker 3: you're Notre Damon. You've been told by this committee for

1258
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 3: six weeks that you are worthy, and all of a sudden,

1259
00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,719
Speaker 3: at the eleventh hour you're not. Just your outlook on

1260
00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,560
Speaker 3: the selection process and how this whole thing played out,

1261
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:27,120
Speaker 3: the Miami Notre Dame controversy, Alabama making it in just

1262
00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 3: how this selection process played out in general, and if

1263
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:32,319
Speaker 3: there should be any changes from your standpoint, and how

1264
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:34,560
Speaker 3: they select who makes the playoff and who doesn't.

1265
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:36,239
Speaker 8: Well, yeah, I think i'd expand it. You know. I

1266
00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:39,040
Speaker 8: think you go up to twenty four so odd teams,

1267
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:42,360
Speaker 8: maybe twenty I think that's a really nice number because

1268
00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 8: that's going to encompass all these outlayers. And I'm going

1269
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:48,919
Speaker 8: to tell you story, guys. In two thousand and four,

1270
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:54,080
Speaker 8: I played against this unsupposed, unbelievable, the best team ever

1271
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:57,560
Speaker 8: at USC right Matt line of Reggie Bush the guys.

1272
00:55:57,880 --> 00:55:59,200
Speaker 8: And then in the end of the year, I played

1273
00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:02,120
Speaker 8: this Utah U team with Alex Smith as the quarterbacker,

1274
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:06,200
Speaker 8: reminders a head coach, and I left the Utah game thinking, dude,

1275
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,920
Speaker 8: if these if USC played Utah, Utah beats them ten

1276
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:12,480
Speaker 8: out of ten times, there's no way they're on the

1277
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:16,640
Speaker 8: same old level. And Utah never had that chance. So sure,

1278
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 8: like in the general population, they'll look at USC and

1279
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:22,479
Speaker 8: be like, oh, that's an unbelievable team, blah blah blah blah.

1280
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:24,520
Speaker 8: But in my mind, as the competitor, I'm like, I

1281
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 8: don't know. So there's this doubt, there's this essence of

1282
00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:32,839
Speaker 8: there's not this undisputed sense. So and I told that

1283
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 8: to Matt Lionerp by the way, and he was so offended.

1284
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:38,520
Speaker 8: I mean he was like, oh, how bitch you said that.

1285
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:40,879
Speaker 8: You know, everybody's like, but that's how we felt. That's

1286
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 8: literally we felt that Utah could have beat them, and

1287
00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 8: the fact that that never was put on trial on

1288
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 8: the field was a travesty to both USC and Utah

1289
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 8: because USC can't say they were undisputed. So we got

1290
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,360
Speaker 8: to get this to the point where we can say that,

1291
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,080
Speaker 8: because if you're Notre Dame right now, I guarantee you

1292
00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:00,200
Speaker 8: they're thinking, if you put us in that tournament, we

1293
00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:03,400
Speaker 8: can win, and that'll be the asterisk on this year

1294
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 8: of the twenty twenty five season is is whoever wins

1295
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,960
Speaker 8: the championship. We can say we could, we could have

1296
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,799
Speaker 8: beat them, but nobody ever gave us a chance. And

1297
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:14,560
Speaker 8: that's what we're trying to avoid here. So I think

1298
00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 8: you get up to twenty teams, Notre Dame has to

1299
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,200
Speaker 8: help themselves too, because guess why, I'm not saying that

1300
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 8: about YU. I'm not mad about BYU, by the way.

1301
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,240
Speaker 8: Why they had every chance to beat Texas Tech and

1302
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,800
Speaker 8: get in, So I'm not even like they did not

1303
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 8: win their game to get in and you don't leave

1304
00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:32,840
Speaker 8: it up to a committee. Okay, So I'm not bitter

1305
00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:35,680
Speaker 8: about that with them. They need to get into a conference.

1306
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 8: That's the bat line. They need to get into the

1307
00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:41,240
Speaker 8: big ten SEC, whatever makes them the most money. They

1308
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 8: need to keep their exclusive TV deal because whatever conference

1309
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:48,640
Speaker 8: they go into, they're just by being there that that

1310
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:51,680
Speaker 8: logo Notre Dame is going to add tremendous value and

1311
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:54,320
Speaker 8: you know every game is gonna sell out and it's

1312
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 8: gonna be huge, but they don't. It doesn't mean that

1313
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,320
Speaker 8: they have to give up this exclusive TV deal that

1314
00:57:58,360 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 8: they have with NBC and doesn't mean they have to

1315
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:02,200
Speaker 8: share any of that. But they just need to get

1316
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:06,520
Speaker 8: in a league and operate from a standpoint where if

1317
00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 8: there is a championship game, they should have the opportunity

1318
00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 8: to play that it's not okay, well, at least you're

1319
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 8: in the league that there's at least some comparables there.

1320
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:18,840
Speaker 8: You know, they were such a wacky schedule. I think

1321
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 8: even going forward, it's going to continue to be this

1322
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:22,640
Speaker 8: way where you're not going to get a feel for

1323
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:25,320
Speaker 8: them outside of play Texas A and m and Miami

1324
00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 8: and both of them were lost. There is really where

1325
00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:29,800
Speaker 8: they stand, and especially at the end of the year

1326
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 8: because guess where everybody gets better, Everybody improves and changes

1327
00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 8: by the end of the year. So they got to

1328
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:37,400
Speaker 8: get into a conference, so I want to see it.

1329
00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:39,760
Speaker 8: It's where it grows. Get more teams in there so

1330
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 8: we can finally have an undisputed champion and also make

1331
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 8: it if Notre Dame, get into a conference, keep your

1332
00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:50,520
Speaker 8: exclusive deal, make all the money you possibly can plus some,

1333
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,240
Speaker 8: but get there so there can be a better judgment

1334
00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:55,040
Speaker 8: of where you're at. And like I said, if there's

1335
00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:59,320
Speaker 8: a championship game, playing the game, that also helped solve

1336
00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:00,920
Speaker 8: the issue whether you belonger you're not.

1337
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:04,680
Speaker 2: Brady Butpinger joining us here on FNA on FSR.

1338
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 3: Before we talk about what happened on Thursday night on

1339
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:09,120
Speaker 3: the field between the Seattle Seahawks and the LA Rams,

1340
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 3: which was just an epic game, phenomenal game. Let's talk

1341
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 3: about Pooka Nakua, who had a great game himself. But

1342
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:17,120
Speaker 3: before that some controversy about what he said and what

1343
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 3: he did, and thankfully he apologized for what he did

1344
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,680
Speaker 3: on that live stream with Aiden Ross. But I think

1345
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:24,040
Speaker 3: made it even a bigger story was what he said

1346
00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 3: about NFL officials and that some of these guys like

1347
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:29,640
Speaker 3: to have the spotlight and intentionally get calls wrong just

1348
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 3: so that they can grants stand and put themselves out

1349
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:33,880
Speaker 3: on front street. You played eight years in the NFL,

1350
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:35,520
Speaker 3: did you get us since that there were some of

1351
00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,560
Speaker 3: these NFL referees who kind of enjoyed the spotlight a

1352
00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:40,720
Speaker 3: little bit and might make a controversial caller too, just

1353
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 3: so that they can have the cameras on them.

1354
00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 8: Never the refts are under as much scrutiny now as

1355
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:50,959
Speaker 8: maybe ever in the history of any refing committee ever

1356
00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:54,640
Speaker 8: because of video review, and they're getting graded every single week.

1357
00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:57,720
Speaker 8: As you notice, not every single ref that wants to

1358
00:59:57,760 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 8: be in the NFL is reffing in the NFL, which

1359
00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:03,680
Speaker 8: in wise there's a performance level that has to be

1360
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 8: matched here else you don't retain your job. So they

1361
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 8: have every incentive to call the game as they see

1362
01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:11,120
Speaker 8: it according to the rule book that they've learned, and

1363
01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:14,000
Speaker 8: they're gonna easily be judged because there's cameras everywhere. So

1364
01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,520
Speaker 8: this isn't like, you know, you can hide away and

1365
01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:19,280
Speaker 8: do these little tricky things here. It's not that way.

1366
01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,600
Speaker 8: And I just think Puka's getting to this thing, and

1367
01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:24,760
Speaker 8: I get it. Get he's getting to this point where

1368
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 8: he knows he's gonna get paid big bucks, and it's

1369
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:32,240
Speaker 8: like and maybe in his mind he's been leveraging his

1370
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,360
Speaker 8: like relationships in the sense of, hey, I'm gonna be

1371
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 8: nice to this guy and that guy to help move

1372
01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:39,520
Speaker 8: me along. And all of a sudden, when you get

1373
01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:43,640
Speaker 8: money and you know, the term is the FU money,

1374
01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:45,080
Speaker 8: but you know the other stuff where it's like you

1375
01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 8: can pretty much just anybody that you were kind of

1376
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,400
Speaker 8: leveraging to kind of rise up, you can just flip

1377
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:52,919
Speaker 8: your bird to him into FU, right, And I think

1378
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,560
Speaker 8: that's kind of where he's at, where he just doesn't care.

1379
01:00:56,320 --> 01:01:00,280
Speaker 8: He's losing his mind. He's just being extra ra plus

1380
01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,680
Speaker 8: with his comments and you know, his expression of his

1381
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,439
Speaker 8: thoughts to where it's like the ironic part is he's

1382
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 8: actually making it more difficult, not to the point where it's,

1383
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:11,720
Speaker 8: you know, a deal breaker, it's all of a sudden

1384
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:13,560
Speaker 8: the point of no return, but he's making it more

1385
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:18,520
Speaker 8: difficult for this situation eventually resolve itself with him getting

1386
01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:22,000
Speaker 8: a big deal, because it's like, bro, who cares how

1387
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 8: good you are? There's a certain tolerance level to any

1388
01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 8: talent level that a team can handle, especially a team

1389
01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:29,440
Speaker 8: in Los Angeles. It's in a microscope that has a

1390
01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:32,240
Speaker 8: lot of following, and it's gonna, as he's noticed, is

1391
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 8: going to have a lot of sway and things are

1392
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:38,160
Speaker 8: going to really hit in certain ways with people if

1393
01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:40,920
Speaker 8: you say or do something. So he's got it. He's

1394
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 8: got to kind of come back down to earth. And

1395
01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 8: just because you get you're getting paid, that's not going

1396
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 8: to change you. You're still gonna have to play hard.

1397
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 8: You're still gonna have to be gritty, You're still gonna

1398
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:51,080
Speaker 8: have to be humble, You're still gonna have to have

1399
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:53,040
Speaker 8: motivation to go out there and get better doesn't change

1400
01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:54,840
Speaker 8: any of that. So I just feel like the money,

1401
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,600
Speaker 8: potential money he's gonna earn is is kind of getting

1402
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:00,200
Speaker 8: him in this reckless mode where he thinks he could

1403
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:02,320
Speaker 8: just get away with saying and do whatever he wants.

1404
01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:05,840
Speaker 8: That is not reality. And again that's concerning if I'm

1405
01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,200
Speaker 8: the team because if you ask any just so you know,

1406
01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:11,320
Speaker 8: any GM or contract negotiating the NFL, that is a

1407
01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:13,200
Speaker 8: huge factor of whether they pay a guy, or how

1408
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:15,120
Speaker 8: much they pay a guy, or how how much they

1409
01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:18,400
Speaker 8: guarantee money to a guy. Is that money gonna change it?

1410
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:21,720
Speaker 8: And right now, if I'm negotiating from the Rams perspective,

1411
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 8: I'm like, yeah, we're gonna franchise tag this sucker. We're

1412
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,400
Speaker 8: not going to give him long term deals, you know.

1413
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,000
Speaker 8: And that's bad for Pukah. So he's got to get

1414
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,880
Speaker 8: his mind right, get back to doing what he's doing.

1415
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,520
Speaker 8: What would being a good teammate, continue to make plays,

1416
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:37,680
Speaker 8: continue to be a grinder, but just get out of

1417
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:41,760
Speaker 8: the media. Man lay Low be low maintenance. Right now,

1418
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:44,160
Speaker 8: he's high maintenance. The fact that your coach after the

1419
01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 8: game has to respond to a text I'm talking. I

1420
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:50,000
Speaker 8: don't think it was like what three many. I think

1421
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:51,560
Speaker 8: it was less than thirty minutes after the game. All

1422
01:02:51,600 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 8: of a sudden, you're as a head coach having to

1423
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,200
Speaker 8: respond to a text of one of your players.

1424
01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:57,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what will send about fifteen minutes after the

1425
01:02:57,480 --> 01:02:58,520
Speaker 3: game ended there, Brady.

1426
01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:01,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's a bad deal, man. It's just bad all

1427
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:04,000
Speaker 8: round bad. So he's got to get his mind right.

1428
01:03:04,040 --> 01:03:06,320
Speaker 8: That's the ball because he's not helping himself at all.

1429
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:09,160
Speaker 4: Wise words from Brady Pabingo with us here on f

1430
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 4: and a on FSR on the field though, Brady, would

1431
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,400
Speaker 4: you say those are the two best teams that played

1432
01:03:15,400 --> 01:03:17,400
Speaker 4: on Thursday night in the NFC right now?

1433
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:20,760
Speaker 8: Oh, they were looking at it. That was crazy. By

1434
01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:23,800
Speaker 8: the way, I was at a like a tavern. Now

1435
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:25,840
Speaker 8: I'm not you know, drinking alcohol and stuff. It's actually

1436
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,360
Speaker 8: a church activity. His arms arounded by all these RAMS fans.

1437
01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:30,480
Speaker 8: I think it was electric.

1438
01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:30,760
Speaker 4: Man.

1439
01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:32,800
Speaker 8: I felt like I was at the game but watching

1440
01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:34,760
Speaker 8: on TV because every big play, you know, the rams

1441
01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:36,520
Speaker 8: would make the whole place is pretty roughed, and it

1442
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,919
Speaker 8: was like deafening the cheering. So that's cool to see.

1443
01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:40,120
Speaker 4: You know.

1444
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 8: Everybody always wondered when the Rams did come back with

1445
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:46,120
Speaker 8: at Los Angeles. You know, from even the grassroots level

1446
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 8: when they opened their arms to the Rams. It's great

1447
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:50,360
Speaker 8: to see that they are and it's great to see

1448
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 8: everybody rallying around the Rams. But yeah, I mean when

1449
01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:56,080
Speaker 8: the Rams were up, I think, what was it, you know,

1450
01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:58,080
Speaker 8: a couple of touchdowns late in the fourth quarter or

1451
01:03:58,120 --> 01:03:59,760
Speaker 8: the early fourth quarter, I was like, yeah, they're the

1452
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:01,600
Speaker 8: best team in the n I thought that. I was like, man,

1453
01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:04,680
Speaker 8: they're I have I'm like thinking the Broncos, you know,

1454
01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:10,040
Speaker 8: these other teams like the Eagles. Man's I'm thinking they're

1455
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:11,680
Speaker 8: the best team. And all of a sudden, the Seahawks

1456
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:14,600
Speaker 8: come back and win the game, and then you're like, wow,

1457
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,680
Speaker 8: man they obviously it's up in Seattle. But but for sure,

1458
01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 8: I think you have to for surely consider where we're

1459
01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:22,240
Speaker 8: at in the season and how these teams have played.

1460
01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 8: Those two is two of the top teams. And how

1461
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:26,680
Speaker 8: about San Donald you know, I mean, go Lee. We

1462
01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 8: were almost saying the same thing about the Vikings last year.

1463
01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:31,959
Speaker 8: You know, you get some of that following a guy

1464
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:35,760
Speaker 8: that tends to validate a position of a guy. But

1465
01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:38,680
Speaker 8: but yeah, I mean, they're they're very well, very well

1466
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 8: balanced across the board. Both those teams where they have,

1467
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:44,240
Speaker 8: you know, guys that are physical and tough running game

1468
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,400
Speaker 8: offensively and defensively, and then they got athletes of playmakers

1469
01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:51,400
Speaker 8: with speed, with quarterbacks that are competitive and sometimes request

1470
01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:53,080
Speaker 8: but they end up making up for it with some

1471
01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:56,240
Speaker 8: phenomenal throws and and so on. So I mean, yeah,

1472
01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,160
Speaker 8: there's I would say that those are two of the

1473
01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:01,920
Speaker 8: top teams. I'm still goodna say that the Eagles are

1474
01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:04,120
Speaker 8: the number one team until somebody knocks them off. But

1475
01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:06,560
Speaker 8: you know we'll get a chance to see that. You know,

1476
01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:08,240
Speaker 8: we'll get a chance to have this all planed out

1477
01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:11,320
Speaker 8: on the football field, but just the eye tests, yeah,

1478
01:05:11,320 --> 01:05:13,960
Speaker 8: I mean in the NFC, those are the two of

1479
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:17,160
Speaker 8: the top probably three or four teams in the NFC

1480
01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:17,560
Speaker 8: for sure.

1481
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:20,560
Speaker 3: So among that group of three or four, how does

1482
01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:22,280
Speaker 3: it check out with the NFC North. You have the

1483
01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:24,280
Speaker 3: Bears that a Green Bay Packers playing again this weekend,

1484
01:05:24,280 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 3: a rematch from a couple of weeks ago. Green Bay

1485
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:27,520
Speaker 3: got out to a big lead, Chicago fought all the

1486
01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,000
Speaker 3: way back before Caleb.

1487
01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:30,400
Speaker 2: Williams do a pick in the end zone.

1488
01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:33,400
Speaker 3: Obviously, both teams dealing with some pretty major injuries coming

1489
01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:36,040
Speaker 3: into this matchup. But I think the Chicago Bears have

1490
01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:38,880
Speaker 3: probably overblown what most people's expectations were for them coming

1491
01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:41,720
Speaker 3: into this season. Just your assessment of Green Bay in

1492
01:05:41,840 --> 01:05:44,520
Speaker 3: Chicago and how this matchup looks coming up on Sunday afternoon.

1493
01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, well, I mean I would be saying a

1494
01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:51,120
Speaker 8: different tune if if our guy, I like blanked his name,

1495
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:53,720
Speaker 8: a guy towards the ACL last week. What's his name, MICHAEH.

1496
01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:56,720
Speaker 3: Parsons in that game of Saturday night by tonight later tonight.

1497
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 3: Excuse me, yes, Michael Parsons towards.

1498
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:02,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, Parsons, dude too in my head, but that

1499
01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:06,920
Speaker 8: Micah Parsons, that injury was brutal. We don't know how

1500
01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:08,800
Speaker 8: they're going to sponk Us. When he showed up to

1501
01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:12,840
Speaker 8: Green Bay, their whole defense wasn't a team had a

1502
01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:16,360
Speaker 8: different confidence and swagger about it. Man. It was like

1503
01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:18,439
Speaker 8: they felt like they could beat anyway. They were talking

1504
01:06:18,440 --> 01:06:21,000
Speaker 8: about going undefeated, blah blah blah. As soon as he

1505
01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 8: went down, you could sense there was like some air

1506
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:27,880
Speaker 8: let out of their confidence balloon. And so, I I

1507
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:29,720
Speaker 8: don't know what's going to happen with that defense to

1508
01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 8: the Packers. I mean, they went from being in my opinion,

1509
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 8: right of the upper exchelon of elite to now, I

1510
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:36,880
Speaker 8: don't know, because that's going to be the indicator, you know,

1511
01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:39,280
Speaker 8: that's the dictator, The thing that dictates this whole thing

1512
01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:40,000
Speaker 8: is that defense.

1513
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: Now.

1514
01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:44,560
Speaker 8: You know, a lot of is playing phenomenal. We'll see

1515
01:06:44,600 --> 01:06:46,960
Speaker 8: with Christian Watson on his shoulder holds up because you know,

1516
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:48,760
Speaker 8: I think he subluxt it a little bit where pops

1517
01:06:48,760 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 8: in and out, and that can affect you, especially if

1518
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:53,040
Speaker 8: you're going after those fifty fifty balls. He may not

1519
01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:55,840
Speaker 8: be as aggressive, you know, he's that deep threat that

1520
01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:58,400
Speaker 8: just blows the top off the defense and the complements

1521
01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:01,240
Speaker 8: their power running game with josh As. But yeah, I

1522
01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:04,440
Speaker 8: don't know, man like that right now, Without Michael Parsons,

1523
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,040
Speaker 8: Packers are a mischief to me. Bears, on the other hand,

1524
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:08,600
Speaker 8: are kind of going to the other direction. Man. They're

1525
01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:12,480
Speaker 8: gaining confidence every single week and the way they're playing,

1526
01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 8: the edge with which they're playing. You know, Ben Johnson's

1527
01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:19,120
Speaker 8: done a phenomenal job of just figuring these guys out,

1528
01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:23,400
Speaker 8: you know, especially Caleb Williams. Guys playing really good. Now,

1529
01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:25,920
Speaker 8: I find the kind of plane in a structure. In

1530
01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:28,920
Speaker 8: addition to his athletic ability, his ability to throw and

1531
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:31,720
Speaker 8: and move is as good or better than I've ever

1532
01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:33,200
Speaker 8: seen it. By the way, I saw him at USC

1533
01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:36,000
Speaker 8: a couple of years ago, and he threw this safety

1534
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:40,360
Speaker 8: yard across the field. Stay away pass. Okay, excuse me,

1535
01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:44,200
Speaker 8: stay away jump pass. But I've never seen before. You know,

1536
01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:47,320
Speaker 8: I've seen thousands of farms and Rogers throws, but nothing

1537
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 8: like that. So anyway, it's nice to see it kind

1538
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:52,320
Speaker 8: of being calculative and put into a system that now

1539
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:55,360
Speaker 8: is reaping him some productive, you know, some good production.

1540
01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:58,440
Speaker 8: But I think, man if I had a bet on

1541
01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 8: it right now, I've give the Bears the event. It's

1542
01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:02,720
Speaker 8: just because they're whole, and you know, we just don't

1543
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,120
Speaker 8: know what that Micah Parsons effect is going to be

1544
01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:07,080
Speaker 8: once the Packers go back out there.

1545
01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:10,400
Speaker 4: Brady, you brought him up there a second ago. When's

1546
01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:12,680
Speaker 4: the last time you talked with your old quarterback? And

1547
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 4: I mean that in two different ways.

1548
01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:14,200
Speaker 8: Now.

1549
01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:18,720
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers lately, he's been gaining a little bit of momentum.

1550
01:08:19,280 --> 01:08:22,360
Speaker 4: The Steelers playing well, got the big victory over the Ravens.

1551
01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 4: What have you seen from him? And a guy who's

1552
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,000
Speaker 4: had to come back from an achilles injury still playing

1553
01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:27,880
Speaker 4: late into his career.

1554
01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:30,519
Speaker 8: Now we can see that this year he's finally feeling

1555
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:33,720
Speaker 8: comfortable and is with his restructured achilles stand. I think

1556
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:38,519
Speaker 8: last year is very tentative. Now, granted, he's still older,

1557
01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:42,160
Speaker 8: you know, And I don't care if you're a meathead

1558
01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:45,720
Speaker 8: like myself or a quarterback. There comes a time where

1559
01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:48,000
Speaker 8: you just get tired of either hitting or getting hit.

1560
01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:50,920
Speaker 8: And he's there. He does not like to get hit,

1561
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:53,240
Speaker 8: and that's good. I mean, if he did like to

1562
01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:55,440
Speaker 8: get hit, we'd have to go and do a psychanalysis

1563
01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:58,479
Speaker 8: because that's not healthy, right, And so he's you know.

1564
01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:01,240
Speaker 8: I mean, I think the make the playoffs, they'll kind

1565
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:03,479
Speaker 8: of squeak in there, make some noise, but they're not

1566
01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:06,040
Speaker 8: going anywhere, you know. I mean, it's just when you

1567
01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:09,479
Speaker 8: play the like when you play the Denver Broncos with

1568
01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:13,320
Speaker 8: their pass rush, Aaron's going to have a problem because

1569
01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:15,000
Speaker 8: he's not going to be able to sit in there

1570
01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:18,000
Speaker 8: like he used to do when he's younger and just throw

1571
01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:20,080
Speaker 8: balls in the face of pressure and in the face

1572
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:24,599
Speaker 8: of inevitable pain when you're just getting you know, slammed

1573
01:09:24,600 --> 01:09:26,760
Speaker 8: by the Nido or whoever. On the other side of

1574
01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:30,000
Speaker 8: the orange crush, they go oorne crush, I think now defense,

1575
01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:34,000
Speaker 8: So you know, like I think it's great. I know

1576
01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:35,720
Speaker 8: he's trying to go out on a high note, which

1577
01:09:35,760 --> 01:09:37,640
Speaker 8: makes sense, you know. I mean the last couple of

1578
01:09:37,680 --> 01:09:40,200
Speaker 8: years in the Jets, it's just a disaster and it's like, yeah,

1579
01:09:40,240 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 8: here you are a Hall of Famer. It's like, that's

1580
01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:44,080
Speaker 8: not how to a way to end your career, you know.

1581
01:09:44,120 --> 01:09:45,559
Speaker 8: So I think he's trying to bookend it with some

1582
01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:47,960
Speaker 8: positivity and I think he's going to get that to

1583
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:50,560
Speaker 8: a degree. But you know, they're not they're not contentives,

1584
01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:52,439
Speaker 8: you know. I think that's the biggest thing. But but

1585
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,439
Speaker 8: will they be there in the wild card and you know,

1586
01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:57,479
Speaker 8: make the playoffs. I think they're on that track. I

1587
01:09:57,520 --> 01:10:01,599
Speaker 8: mean they lead the AFC worth right now from last

1588
01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,439
Speaker 8: time I checked, So that's a pause. But but yeah,

1589
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:06,160
Speaker 8: you can see that. And Tom Brady, by the way,

1590
01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:08,479
Speaker 8: I have the same tendency when he got older, and

1591
01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:10,400
Speaker 8: I don't know, if you guys watched Philip River, you

1592
01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:13,240
Speaker 8: know he was really big, you know, they just don't

1593
01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 8: like to get hit man, you know, and that's and

1594
01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:19,040
Speaker 8: that's okay. And Aaron's at that point where the pressure

1595
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:21,599
Speaker 8: around him just is really affecting and then he's dealing

1596
01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:24,840
Speaker 8: with his wrist and you know that's been fractured, and

1597
01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:28,439
Speaker 8: so it just it's it just it complicates the playing

1598
01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:30,400
Speaker 8: at the quarterback position because but people don't realize is

1599
01:10:30,439 --> 01:10:32,840
Speaker 8: you have to be able to keep your eyes downfield,

1600
01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:36,960
Speaker 8: steal the rush, and then, in spite of getting absolutely

1601
01:10:37,040 --> 01:10:40,840
Speaker 8: obliterated without being able to brace yourself, throw the ball accurately.

1602
01:10:41,160 --> 01:10:43,360
Speaker 8: I mean that is it's one of the most i

1603
01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:46,439
Speaker 8: would say merciless positions to be And that's why I

1604
01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:49,280
Speaker 8: hated quarterback when they tried playing me at quarterback when

1605
01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:51,519
Speaker 8: I was a Literally, it's not fun being the hit.

1606
01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:54,160
Speaker 8: He it's a lot more enjoyable being the hitter. And

1607
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 8: I don't care how much more money that guy made

1608
01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:57,920
Speaker 8: to me. I'll get it to him. You could take.

1609
01:10:57,960 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 2: It makes sense to me.

1610
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:01,920
Speaker 3: Brady before before we let you go here, because you

1611
01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:05,559
Speaker 3: talked about the hierarchy of the NFC, how about the AFC.

1612
01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:08,680
Speaker 3: The Denver Broncos currently the top seed, you have the Patriots,

1613
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:10,599
Speaker 3: in there. The Bills can still chase down New England

1614
01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:13,800
Speaker 3: for that division. So how do you see the AFC

1615
01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:15,960
Speaker 3: as far as Super Bowl contenders go? Because Denver, their

1616
01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:18,040
Speaker 3: offense seems to have turned the corner recently these last

1617
01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:21,040
Speaker 3: couple of weeks. Their defense has been dominant all season long,

1618
01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:22,880
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden you look at teams like Houston,

1619
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:25,439
Speaker 3: their defense has been phenomenal and their offense has improved too.

1620
01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:27,840
Speaker 3: They can potentially make some noise as well. Just what

1621
01:11:28,240 --> 01:11:30,640
Speaker 3: is your thought or outlook on the hierarchy in the

1622
01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:33,280
Speaker 3: AFC And who's a I guess contender or pretender for

1623
01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:34,520
Speaker 3: the for that cliche.

1624
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:37,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I mean the Broncos. At first, I was

1625
01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 8: really doubting their longevity. I don't know why. I just

1626
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:44,639
Speaker 8: didn't steal the vibe. But after I saw them play

1627
01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:47,000
Speaker 8: the Packers, I mean after I've seen them play a

1628
01:11:47,040 --> 01:11:49,759
Speaker 8: number of weeks now, I really thought like this is really

1629
01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:53,760
Speaker 8: because that defense is a phenomenal defense and they're not

1630
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,760
Speaker 8: just good pass rushs. The reason why they lead the

1631
01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 8: league in sacks and they're on the I think they're

1632
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,519
Speaker 8: on the track to break the bears eighty five record

1633
01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:05,240
Speaker 8: of seventy some sack. I think seventy seven sacks right.

1634
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:08,200
Speaker 8: It's because they're really physical and they stop to run

1635
01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:10,880
Speaker 8: really well, and that means you're putting teams offenses in

1636
01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:13,320
Speaker 8: predictable passing situations where now you get ten years back

1637
01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:15,400
Speaker 8: and get after quarterback. That's why I love. And then

1638
01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:17,160
Speaker 8: they got really good coverage guys. You know, I know

1639
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:18,800
Speaker 8: Riley Musk it's a lot of heat because he's a

1640
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:22,120
Speaker 8: white corner. But that dude along with the I mean

1641
01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:25,240
Speaker 8: Patrick Certin you I don't know if you guys caught

1642
01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:27,200
Speaker 8: the game last week against the Packers, man he had

1643
01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:29,599
Speaker 8: all the best intercepts on the fifty to fifty ball

1644
01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:32,400
Speaker 8: I've seen in Tin Fry, Charles Woodson Man and I

1645
01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:37,200
Speaker 8: was like, wow, yeah, I mean they got such a

1646
01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:40,040
Speaker 8: talented roster. You know, Vance Jose if you got to

1647
01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:42,840
Speaker 8: get a lot of credit, I imagine, you know, as

1648
01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:45,320
Speaker 8: a decoordinator. I mean, this is like a historical good

1649
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 8: depot that he's gotta be kind of the guy I

1650
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:52,439
Speaker 8: would think of the next you know, going and being

1651
01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:54,600
Speaker 8: a head coach somewhere. I mean I would, because I

1652
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:56,680
Speaker 8: know it's been popular to get these offensive guys, but

1653
01:12:56,720 --> 01:12:59,240
Speaker 8: come on, man that he's done a phenomenal job with

1654
01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:01,599
Speaker 8: that defense. And how cool is too, you know, he

1655
01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:03,760
Speaker 8: was the head coach of the Broncos. Guys gets fired

1656
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:05,519
Speaker 8: and because still because I know it's a whole different

1657
01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:08,040
Speaker 8: you know, ownership and everything. I think that was pretty

1658
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:09,920
Speaker 8: cool with him too, to do that, because that could

1659
01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:11,519
Speaker 8: be hard sometimes where he kind of kind of have

1660
01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:14,599
Speaker 8: to face a place where you were interpreted to fail.

1661
01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:16,960
Speaker 8: But but yeah, yeah, I saw I mean, my whole

1662
01:13:16,920 --> 01:13:19,040
Speaker 8: college around the Broncos, because they're to me, the only

1663
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:22,840
Speaker 8: legitimate team that stands up a chance against the Eagles,

1664
01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:26,400
Speaker 8: against the Rams, against the Seahawks, you know, in the NFC,

1665
01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:28,479
Speaker 8: everybody else, like the Bills you mentioned these other teams,

1666
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:30,120
Speaker 8: I just don't look at them. It's like the builds

1667
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:33,920
Speaker 8: are just so consistent defensively, too soft. They get ran

1668
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:36,080
Speaker 8: on all the time. I mean, you know, Jared Allen's

1669
01:13:36,160 --> 01:13:38,519
Speaker 8: literally having to carrem on his back to win at

1670
01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:41,479
Speaker 8: the end. Can he do that through the playoffs? Sure,

1671
01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:44,800
Speaker 8: but you face, you know, these tough defenses, he's gonna

1672
01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:47,720
Speaker 8: get worn out, and it's just he needs help, you know.

1673
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,080
Speaker 8: And that's just it's just too much asking of a guy.

1674
01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:51,720
Speaker 8: You know, and I mean, and they's possible, don't get

1675
01:13:51,720 --> 01:13:55,200
Speaker 8: me wrong, because Josh Allen he's phenomenal. Man, Like the dude,

1676
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:57,519
Speaker 8: can I see Aaron do this where he's taking games

1677
01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:01,360
Speaker 8: over and he's he's filled in certain spots in our team.

1678
01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 8: And Josh has that ability. Man. He can literally make

1679
01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:07,400
Speaker 8: your offensive line when it's struggling look really good. He

1680
01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:10,680
Speaker 8: can help your defense those kinds of things. And so

1681
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:13,960
Speaker 8: that's the X factor is Josh Allen has the ability

1682
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:17,680
Speaker 8: to get hot and take over. But when you're just

1683
01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:21,280
Speaker 8: talking sound principal football teams that are built top the bottom,

1684
01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:23,559
Speaker 8: really well, that's the Denver Broncos. He got bo Nicks

1685
01:14:23,560 --> 01:14:25,840
Speaker 8: playing a lot better, you know, I mean they got

1686
01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:27,559
Speaker 8: they got a lot of dudes on the edges too.

1687
01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,679
Speaker 8: They're they're playing some really good ball. So the Broncos

1688
01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:32,559
Speaker 8: are for real, man, I'd put them in the top

1689
01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:33,599
Speaker 8: five of the whole NFL.

1690
01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:36,920
Speaker 4: Well, Brady Papinga is our Josh Allen carrying us through

1691
01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:40,559
Speaker 4: this show with great NFL analysis. Follow him at Brady

1692
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:43,519
Speaker 4: Papingo with two p's in the middle of his last name.

1693
01:14:44,040 --> 01:14:46,400
Speaker 4: He was a BYU Cougar. He won a Super Bowl

1694

1704

1739
01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:36,439
Speaker 4: next categy game tap? Okay, Kevin? So, the Bills may

1740
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:38,760
Speaker 4: have just gotten a victory on the road in New

1741
01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:42,400
Speaker 4: England after trailing twenty one to nothing, and they may

1742
01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,599
Speaker 4: be ten point favorites on the road this week in

1743
01:16:44,640 --> 01:16:48,280
Speaker 4: Cleveland against a Browns team that lost thirty one to

1744
01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:51,120
Speaker 4: three to the Bears. Yep, but I see a possible

1745
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:54,679
Speaker 4: trap game for Buffalo as they try to chase down

1746
01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:59,439
Speaker 4: the AFC East and take it away from New England. Well,

1747
01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:02,639
Speaker 4: the reason for that is because their quarterback Josh Allen

1748
01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:07,640
Speaker 4: can't stop throwing up. And nothing induces massive amounts of

1749
01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:12,200
Speaker 4: projectile vomit more than the Cleveland Browns. Alan says his

1750
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:15,960
Speaker 4: ritual throwing up on the sidelines quote is due to

1751
01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:19,280
Speaker 4: nothing else other than a weird feeling and he's just

1752
01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:21,920
Speaker 4: got to get it out. But right now I see

1753
01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:25,080
Speaker 4: it being more than just some random weird feeling or nerves.

1754
01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:29,400
Speaker 4: When you see the Browns and no, they've had forty

1755
01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:33,120
Speaker 4: two different starting quarterbacks since nineteen ninety nine, that is

1756
01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:37,240
Speaker 4: vomit inducing. When you see Shaduur Sanders hit Jerry Judy

1757
01:17:37,280 --> 01:17:40,439
Speaker 4: with the touchdown pass in his chest that bounces off

1758
01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:43,760
Speaker 4: of him into the defender's hands for an interception that

1759
01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:46,519
Speaker 4: will make you hurl. When you see Miles Garrett on

1760
01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:49,599
Speaker 4: the brink of breaking the sack record on a team

1761
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:52,400
Speaker 4: going nowhere, no matter how great he is, that will

1762
01:17:52,400 --> 01:17:55,599
Speaker 4: make your barf. When you see the Browns uniforms. It

1763
01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:58,439
Speaker 4: reminds you of up Chuck when you see a washed

1764
01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:03,160
Speaker 4: Skip Bayless desperately try to stay relevant by attaching himself

1765
01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:06,160
Speaker 4: to Shador Sanders the same way he did Johnny Manziel.

1766
01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:10,240
Speaker 4: It makes you heave when you remember the Browns had

1767
01:18:10,240 --> 01:18:13,559
Speaker 4: a sorry cornerback in the mid two thousands literally named

1768
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:18,759
Speaker 4: Ralph Brown. It makes you Ralph. I just I can't

1769
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:23,160
Speaker 4: see someone with the condition of Josh Allen having any

1770
01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:25,960
Speaker 4: chance of making it through a game against the Browns

1771
01:18:26,040 --> 01:18:30,000
Speaker 4: while he's spewing never ending projectile a Bama like. It's

1772
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:35,040
Speaker 4: the scene and scary movie too, mimicking Exorcism the original.

1773
01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:39,719
Speaker 4: Not to mention, his wife, Hailey Steinfelder, is pregnant, which

1774
01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:44,200
Speaker 4: means he could be having sympathetic pregnancy symptoms where he's

1775
01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:49,599
Speaker 4: mimicking some of her pregnancy pains, including morning sickness. It's

1776
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:51,479
Speaker 4: just the wrong time for Josh Allen to be playing

1777
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:51,960
Speaker 4: the Browns.

1778
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:55,400
Speaker 3: It's a trapat I got morning sickness and I'm craving

1779
01:18:55,400 --> 01:18:58,120
Speaker 3: taco bell apparently for no reason with hell So this

1780
01:18:58,280 --> 01:18:59,320
Speaker 3: is awesome my trap game.

1781
01:18:59,320 --> 01:18:59,960
Speaker 2: Tap there, Adam.

1782
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,479
Speaker 3: When it comes to Buffalo, you mentioned the come from

1783
01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:04,920
Speaker 3: behind victory against New England last week, all.

1784
01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:06,280
Speaker 2: The emotional ups and downs.

1785
01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:08,000
Speaker 3: One thing I'll say about Josh Allen two on a

1786
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:11,280
Speaker 3: serious note, So we all say it's happening, aforegone conclusion

1787
01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:13,320
Speaker 3: that Matthew Stafford's going to win the EVP, and even

1788
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:15,400
Speaker 3: in a losing effort on Thursday night, his numbers were

1789
01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:18,320
Speaker 3: sick and he had nothing to do with why they lost.

1790
01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:20,760
Speaker 3: But I do think he might be closing the gap

1791
01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:23,720
Speaker 3: on Drake Man Matthew Stafford. Here just a little bit.

1792
01:19:23,800 --> 01:19:26,120
Speaker 3: I know Buffalo leads the league in rushing with James Cook,

1793
01:19:26,160 --> 01:19:27,599
Speaker 3: and a lot of people don't know that. By the way,

1794
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:30,240
Speaker 3: James Cook is kind of neck and neck back and

1795
01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:32,599
Speaker 3: forth with Jonathan Taylor, who leads the league in rushing

1796
01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:36,080
Speaker 3: right now. Taylor has a twenty eight yard margin of error,

1797
01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:37,920
Speaker 3: or I should say he has twenty eight more yards

1798
01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:41,320
Speaker 3: rushing than James Cook does at the moment. But Josh

1799
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:43,320
Speaker 3: Allen has had to put his cape on multiple times

1800
01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:45,639
Speaker 3: to try to save this team when they've needed him most.

1801
01:19:45,640 --> 01:19:47,559
Speaker 3: We go back to that Cincinnati game in the snow,

1802
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:50,120
Speaker 3: and now obviously talking about last week again against the

1803
01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:52,120
Speaker 3: New England Patriots. I don't think it will happen, But

1804
01:19:52,160 --> 01:19:54,080
Speaker 3: I am saying just keep an eye on Josh Allen

1805
01:19:54,120 --> 01:19:56,880
Speaker 3: in this MVP race. Potentially, if the Rams don't win

1806
01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:59,639
Speaker 3: the NFC West, Bill's finished the season against the Eagles

1807
01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:01,200
Speaker 3: and Jets, if he goes on a heater and he

1808
01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:04,120
Speaker 3: plays extremely well, they overtake the Patriots for the number

1809
01:20:04,120 --> 01:20:06,599
Speaker 3: two seed in the AFC. I can definitely see him

1810
01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:09,640
Speaker 3: swooping in for that award. But for this game, like

1811
01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:11,960
Speaker 3: you mentioned, I don't think it's necessarily going to be

1812
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:13,720
Speaker 3: a walk over because they are set up a little

1813
01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:16,479
Speaker 3: bit for an emotional letdown. That Browns defense has I

1814
01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:18,800
Speaker 3: will say taking a giant lead backwards over these past

1815
01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:21,280
Speaker 3: three weeks. I made a huge mistake last week taking

1816
01:20:21,320 --> 01:20:23,280
Speaker 3: them to cover the spread against the Bears. So I

1817
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:25,840
Speaker 3: threw up all over myself with that prediction, Adam, a

1818
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:28,800
Speaker 3: huge mistake. I most definitely did. I assume they would

1819
01:20:28,840 --> 01:20:31,320
Speaker 3: return to their dominant unit that they were early in

1820
01:20:31,320 --> 01:20:34,040
Speaker 3: the season. They just have not been, and it seems

1821
01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:36,240
Speaker 3: like they more they kind of checked into the Nick

1822
01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:38,800
Speaker 3: Van Exel one two three can coon mindset based on

1823
01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:41,760
Speaker 3: how they played these last three weeks here playing out

1824
01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:42,440
Speaker 3: the string.

1825
01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:44,599
Speaker 4: Anything's can Coon if you just get out of Cleveland.

1826
01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:47,600
Speaker 2: I'm telling you so, we've been there before, so I know.

1827
01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:50,240
Speaker 3: The Bills have also been woefully inconsistent this season as well,

1828
01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:51,640
Speaker 3: So I'm not going to take it into two one

1829
01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:53,800
Speaker 3: or two all for anything, but I will say keep

1830
01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:55,880
Speaker 3: a close eye on this game because it's very much

1831
01:20:55,920 --> 01:20:57,479
Speaker 3: a potential trap game for the Bills.

1832
01:20:57,600 --> 01:21:00,519
Speaker 4: All Right, we're some Patiko there. Coming we get our

1833

Speaker 4: All right, Kevin, you want to start off this time.

1849
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:48,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, my ugly matchup that might turn out to be entertaining.

1850
01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:50,080
Speaker 3: And by the way, Adam, looking at the schedule this week,

1851
01:21:50,560 --> 01:21:52,880
Speaker 3: a lot of potential ugly games. You got the Jets

1852
01:21:52,880 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 3: and Saints, sorry, Brie Falcons, Cardinals, Vikings, Giants, And to

1853
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:00,200
Speaker 3: a certain degree, you can say the same thing about

1854
01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:02,519
Speaker 3: the Dolphins and the Bengals, but that game does have

1855
01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:05,120
Speaker 3: one major redeeming quality that none of those other games

1856
01:22:05,120 --> 01:22:05,639
Speaker 3: can sniff.

1857
01:22:06,200 --> 01:22:09,280
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow. Oh, Joe Burrow, Yes, few teams can.

1858
01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:12,200
Speaker 3: Both have an unquestionably one of the best players in

1859
01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:15,479
Speaker 3: the entire league who's battling through a tough season, and

1860
01:22:15,520 --> 01:22:18,280
Speaker 3: he actually, Adam, he wants to play, while everybody else

1861
01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:19,880
Speaker 3: is suggesting that he shuts it down.

1862
01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:22,080
Speaker 2: He said it at a press conference earlier this week.

1863
01:22:22,280 --> 01:22:23,280
Speaker 2: So you want to play.

1864
01:22:23,479 --> 01:22:24,919
Speaker 4: He's good, He's fine.

1865
01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:27,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, everybody else is. Everybody else is trying to

1866
01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:28,840
Speaker 3: tell me. I want to sit down when I get

1867
01:22:28,840 --> 01:22:31,080
Speaker 3: paid to play football. I like playing football, at least

1868
01:22:31,080 --> 01:22:33,000
Speaker 3: for now, and I want to continue to play, which,

1869
01:22:33,040 --> 01:22:34,599
Speaker 3: by the way, Adam, I'll say this if I were

1870
01:22:34,640 --> 01:22:37,559
Speaker 3: a Bengals fan, I respect him for having that outlook.

1871
01:22:38,000 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 3: I will say sit your ass down, Like, let's put

1872
01:22:40,320 --> 01:22:43,120
Speaker 3: somebody else in there, have them run for their lives. Whoever,

1873
01:22:43,280 --> 01:22:45,040
Speaker 3: I don't need to risk you getting hurt. Let's get

1874
01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:46,760
Speaker 3: you all rested up and healthy and get you back

1875
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:48,479
Speaker 3: in here for training camp coming up.

1876
01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:53,360
Speaker 2: In August exactly. But we obviously know that's not going

1877
01:22:53,439 --> 01:22:53,800
Speaker 2: to happen.

1878
01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:56,360
Speaker 3: So you have a motivated Joe Burrow against the Miami

1879
01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:59,360
Speaker 3: defense that granted is in the top fifteen, their thirteenth

1880
01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:02,000
Speaker 3: against the past, but they're playing out the string at

1881
01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:04,439
Speaker 3: this point in time, and their bubble was burst last

1882
01:23:04,439 --> 01:23:05,960
Speaker 3: week by the Steelers. I know they had a very

1883
01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:08,640
Speaker 3: slim playoff playoff hopes, those are now completely out of

1884
01:23:08,680 --> 01:23:11,360
Speaker 3: the window. Quinn Ewers is now the starting quarterback because

1885
01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:14,040
Speaker 3: Tua is on the bench and his future is in question,

1886
01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:15,880
Speaker 3: although he has a pretty hefty price tag, so I

1887
01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:17,280
Speaker 3: don't know where the hell he's gonna go, to be

1888
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:20,080
Speaker 3: honest with you, Yeah, good luck with that, yeah he Look,

1889
01:23:20,200 --> 01:23:22,400
Speaker 3: who knows how yours is going to perform. I remember

1890
01:23:22,400 --> 01:23:24,000
Speaker 3: there was a while back, a couple of years ago

1891
01:23:24,040 --> 01:23:25,559
Speaker 3: in college when he was at Texas, and I remember

1892
01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:28,000
Speaker 3: he had a big victory against Alabama. People thought he

1893
01:23:28,040 --> 01:23:30,120
Speaker 3: had a bright future in the NFL. Now, I was

1894
01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:31,640
Speaker 3: not one of them. I never thought that he was

1895
01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:34,599
Speaker 3: that great of a prospect personally, but look, he's gotten

1896
01:23:34,600 --> 01:23:36,800
Speaker 3: an opportunity. We'll see what happens. And it's against a

1897
01:23:36,800 --> 01:23:39,720
Speaker 3: pretty bad defense this weekend, so who knows. So you

1898
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 3: have Joe Burrow the Bengals offense out there up against

1899
01:23:42,240 --> 01:23:45,120
Speaker 3: a Dolphins offense that will be a relative unknown with

1900
01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:47,760
Speaker 3: a rookie quarterback behind center. Yet you still have for

1901
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:49,680
Speaker 3: someone like Devin h chan Back in the backfield, so

1902
01:23:49,680 --> 01:23:52,320
Speaker 3: he's an exciting young running back. I think there's enough

1903
01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:54,280
Speaker 3: intrigue in this one to at least keep half an

1904
01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:56,559
Speaker 3: eye on, and if nothing else, if you're a degenerate

1905
01:23:56,600 --> 01:23:59,360
Speaker 3: gambler out there, the over under at last check was

1906
01:23:59,400 --> 01:24:01,439
Speaker 3: forty seven and half, I think you might want to

1907
01:24:01,479 --> 01:24:02,720
Speaker 3: take the over all.

1908
01:24:02,760 --> 01:24:06,120
Speaker 4: Right, an early pick before two on two off my

1909
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:08,720
Speaker 4: beer goggles game. When I put those beer goggles on,

1910
01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:14,719
Speaker 4: I see NFL football being played on Saturday again, which

1911
01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:17,559
Speaker 4: means we're getting close to the playoffs, right, And it

1912
01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:20,280
Speaker 4: also means we're going to get games more spread out

1913
01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:24,160
Speaker 4: and featured in primetime, which means we're due for some

1914
01:24:24,360 --> 01:24:27,840
Speaker 4: bad divisional games, especially from the NFC East on the

1915
01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:30,640
Speaker 4: big stage, because well, their markets have a lot of

1916
01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:34,519
Speaker 4: fans like these two. With Philadelphia going into DC to

1917
01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:37,840
Speaker 4: take on the Commanders later today. The reason I think

1918
01:24:37,880 --> 01:24:41,400
Speaker 4: this game is actually interesting though, besides the fact I

1919
01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:43,479
Speaker 4: want to talk myself into watching it. Since this is

1920
01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:46,880
Speaker 4: the first NFL game of the weekend, we get to

1921
01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:50,080
Speaker 4: see if the Eagles, you know, can beat two bad

1922
01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:53,120
Speaker 4: teams in a row soundly and start to make a

1923
01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:55,800
Speaker 4: little bit of noise heading into the playoffs. Can they

1924
01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:59,120
Speaker 4: fool us into buying back in or not? Last week

1925
01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:02,920
Speaker 4: they bludgeoned your Raiders, winning thirty one to nothing, as

1926
01:25:02,960 --> 01:25:06,200
Speaker 4: the Raiders now have the second worst point differential in

1927
01:25:06,240 --> 01:25:09,000
Speaker 4: the league at minus one hundred and sixty seven. Only

1928
01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:12,639
Speaker 4: the Titans are worse than minus one's sixty nine. Not nice.

1929
01:25:13,040 --> 01:25:16,840
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go just throw something out here before anyone

1930
01:25:16,880 --> 01:25:22,479
Speaker 4: else does. What if Kevin tom Brady comes out of

1931
01:25:22,520 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 4: the booth to coach the team he's part owner of.

1932
01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:29,800
Speaker 4: At some point the Raiders suck? I know they might

1933
01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:32,439
Speaker 4: keep Pete Carroll another season. I think about it. I

1934
01:25:32,439 --> 01:25:36,040
Speaker 4: don't hate that idea, but eventually I could see Brady

1935
01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:41,360
Speaker 4: with a headset on calling plays. Guys that competitive, they

1936
01:25:41,360 --> 01:25:43,760
Speaker 4: can't help themselves. I don't know, just gonna throw it

1937
01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:44,120
Speaker 4: out there.

1938
01:25:44,160 --> 01:25:46,439
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's possible under the CBA where

1939
01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:48,360
Speaker 3: you can be a part time owner and also.

1940
01:25:48,120 --> 01:25:49,639
Speaker 2: Be the coach, but I don't know how that works.

1941
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:52,120
Speaker 4: He gets out of the ownership thing like Jordan did

1942
01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:53,679
Speaker 4: with the Wizards. They find a way.

1943
01:25:54,120 --> 01:25:54,479
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1944
01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:57,320
Speaker 3: Anyways, if that's the result that I'm gonna get, then

1945
01:25:57,360 --> 01:25:57,840
Speaker 3: I'll pass.

1946
01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:01,360
Speaker 2: I don't association with the Wizards.

1947
01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:01,560
Speaker 8: I'm not.

1948
01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:02,280
Speaker 2: I'm out.

1949
01:26:02,640 --> 01:26:06,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you did great things with the Hornets after Okay. Anyways,

1950
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:09,760
Speaker 4: back to the Eagles, a team that once lost to

1951
01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:12,120
Speaker 4: the Raiders in a Super Bowl but also beat Tom

1952
01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:14,600
Speaker 4: Brady in a Super Bowl. The Eagles are trying to

1953
01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:18,479
Speaker 4: gather up momentum before the playoffs, like winning the NFC

1954
01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:21,200
Speaker 4: East would help, and for as bad as they've looked,

1955
01:26:21,680 --> 01:26:25,360
Speaker 4: at worst, they're going to be the three seed in

1956
01:26:25,400 --> 01:26:28,760
Speaker 4: the NFC because the NFC South winner is not going

1957
01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:32,640
Speaker 4: to catch them and they're only a game back the

1958
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:36,480
Speaker 4: Philadelphia Eagles of the Packers, who they have the tiebreaker

1959
01:26:36,600 --> 01:26:40,360
Speaker 4: over if the pack win the NFC North, So the

1960
01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:42,720
Speaker 4: Eagles are still fully in the hunt for the two

1961
01:26:42,840 --> 01:26:46,160
Speaker 4: seed at nine and five, and they don't just have

1962
01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:50,160
Speaker 4: the Commanders today, but again in a week, in week eighteen,

1963
01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:51,840
Speaker 4: or in two weeks from now, they get to play

1964
01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:54,799
Speaker 4: them again in between. There they get the Bills. Not easy,

1965
01:26:55,200 --> 01:27:00,000
Speaker 4: but they should end up with eleven wins. I'm just interesting,

1966
01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:04,479
Speaker 4: should to see if a champion playing with desperation can

1967
01:27:04,840 --> 01:27:07,760
Speaker 4: find that magic again like they had last season a

1968
01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:10,160
Speaker 4: couple of years before that, and if they can go

1969
01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:12,880
Speaker 4: into the tournament with so momentum. I may need my

1970
01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:15,840
Speaker 4: beer goggles on to watch this Eagles Commander's game, but

1971
01:27:15,880 --> 01:27:17,960
Speaker 4: sign me up to see what kind of performance this

1972
01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:21,320
Speaker 4: drama field Eagles team puts forth and if they can

1973
01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:24,120
Speaker 4: come together the most critical time of the season like

1974
01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:26,960
Speaker 4: that Tush Push got a little more cushion for the

1975
01:27:26,960 --> 01:27:29,360
Speaker 4: push and left in it. I think I wouldn't count

1976
01:27:29,360 --> 01:27:32,120
Speaker 4: Philly out yet for making a run here, Kevin.

1977
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:34,400
Speaker 2: You imagine they lose to the Commanders tonight.

1978
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:37,639
Speaker 4: Okay, well then I'd feel pretty stupid.

1979
01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:38,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1980
01:27:38,120 --> 01:27:40,760
Speaker 3: I talked last week about how Philadelphia fans are so

1981
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:42,719
Speaker 3: irrational and how they flip out over everything.

1982
01:27:42,960 --> 01:27:44,960
Speaker 2: I don't think there's anything to be irrational about it.

1983
01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:47,480
Speaker 3: If you end up losing to the Commanders and Marcus Mariota,

1984
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:48,840
Speaker 3: who are literally going nowhere.

1985
01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:50,520
Speaker 4: Oh no, that would be righteous anger.

1986
01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:53,360
Speaker 2: Man.

1987
01:27:53,640 --> 01:27:54,799
Speaker 4: Mark, what's up next?

1988
01:27:55,840 --> 01:28:10,280
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Oh my god.

1989
01:28:11,840 --> 01:28:18,120
Speaker 4: Oh right, I'm so sorry. Yeah, maybe that's how mad

1990
01:28:18,160 --> 01:28:18,439
Speaker 4: they be.

1991
01:28:19,160 --> 01:28:22,320
Speaker 2: Exactly. My potential epic fail this week is going to

1992
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:24,000
Speaker 2: the LA Chargers. Yes.

1993
01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:26,120
Speaker 3: Look, if you're a Charger fan, you feel like you've

1994
01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:28,040
Speaker 3: turned the corner. You've slaid the beast known as the

1995
01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:30,320
Speaker 3: Kansas City Chiefs, You've knocked them out of the postseason.

1996
01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:32,760
Speaker 3: You have an outside shot of winning the AFC West

1997
01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:34,439
Speaker 3: if you went out and get a little bit of help.

1998
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:37,440
Speaker 3: But the here comes scenes that here becomes the unforeseen

1999
01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:39,920
Speaker 3: juggernaut in the Dallas Cowboys and Adam. I don't mean

2000
01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:42,519
Speaker 3: this as oh, they have so many offensive weapons when

2001
01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:45,599
Speaker 3: it comes to you know, George Pickens and Cede Lamb

2002
01:28:45,600 --> 01:28:48,599
Speaker 3: and all these guys. No, they're a juggernaut because they

2003
01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:51,840
Speaker 3: epitomize everything that Charger fans should fear. A team that's

2004
01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:54,479
Speaker 3: not going to the playoffs, playing with nothing to lose.

2005
01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:57,479
Speaker 3: Site said in the off season, and yes, Cowboy fans,

2006
01:28:57,479 --> 01:28:59,600
Speaker 3: by the way, I know you're not mathematically eliminated, but

2007
01:28:59,640 --> 01:29:02,080
Speaker 3: let's be honest with ourselves. You're going home in a

2008
01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:04,479
Speaker 3: couple of weeks, so it's all good. Get those my

2009
01:29:04,600 --> 01:29:05,840
Speaker 3: ties ready, don't worry about it.

2010
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:06,040
Speaker 1: Ah.

2011
01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:09,160
Speaker 3: Now that's not to say that, but the problem is

2012
01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:11,960
Speaker 3: Dallas is a formidable opponent by the way, they're favored

2013
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:14,240
Speaker 3: in this game for some reason I find out to

2014
01:29:14,240 --> 01:29:16,960
Speaker 3: be interesting. Hovering around five hundred, do have one of

2015
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,400
Speaker 3: the best offenses in the league, So on a malagam

2016
01:29:19,439 --> 01:29:21,719
Speaker 3: it shouldn't be a surprise if they played the Chargers

2017
01:29:21,720 --> 01:29:24,400
Speaker 3: to or found some way to potentially win this game.

2018
01:29:24,400 --> 01:29:27,519
Speaker 3: But perceptually, the Chargers have reached a point under Jim

2019
01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:30,360
Speaker 3: Harriball where you feel like they've kind of now fully

2020
01:29:30,479 --> 01:29:32,680
Speaker 3: hit that profile and fitting the profile of how those

2021
01:29:32,720 --> 01:29:36,440
Speaker 3: teams usually play physical on defense, controlling the game offensively,

2022
01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:39,480
Speaker 3: having an athletic quarterback who can make plays when necessary.

2023
01:29:39,640 --> 01:29:42,280
Speaker 3: You know, think back to Andrew Luck, Alex Smith, Colin Kaepernick,

2024
01:29:42,479 --> 01:29:45,559
Speaker 3: even JJ McCarthy at Michigan. I'm specifically thinking back to

2025
01:29:45,600 --> 01:29:48,040
Speaker 3: that rose Ball win against Alabama and all the plays

2026
01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:51,120
Speaker 3: he made with his feet in that situation. Other than look,

2027
01:29:51,120 --> 01:29:53,439
Speaker 3: I think Justin Herbert's is probably the best of any

2028
01:29:53,479 --> 01:29:55,719
Speaker 3: of those guys, to be honest with you, And despite

2029
01:29:55,720 --> 01:29:57,920
Speaker 3: the fact that he's running for his life, he's playing

2030
01:29:58,200 --> 01:30:00,519
Speaker 3: at a pretty high level. Behind it pretty terrible and

2031
01:30:00,560 --> 01:30:03,160
Speaker 3: pretty banged up offensive line. And for all of that

2032
01:30:03,240 --> 01:30:04,920
Speaker 3: told true, by the way, as far as I'm playing

2033
01:30:04,960 --> 01:30:07,439
Speaker 3: in hardball's identity, they need to come out Sunday and

2034
01:30:07,479 --> 01:30:09,840
Speaker 3: dominate the Cowboys. You ran for just under one hundred

2035
01:30:09,880 --> 01:30:12,639
Speaker 3: yards against Kansas City, and that's a pretty tough defense.

2036
01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:15,160
Speaker 3: You need to run for well over one hundred yards

2037
01:30:15,479 --> 01:30:18,320
Speaker 3: against the Dallas Cowboys. If this jesse Menzer defense is

2038
01:30:18,360 --> 01:30:21,120
Speaker 3: a championship level unit, like some people like to say

2039
01:30:21,120 --> 01:30:22,840
Speaker 3: that they are, they need to come out and make

2040
01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:25,200
Speaker 3: a statement against his high flying Dallas offense and not

2041
01:30:25,360 --> 01:30:27,760
Speaker 3: live off of the wears of beaten trash offenses like

2042
01:30:27,800 --> 01:30:31,320
Speaker 3: the Raiders, Titans, Chiefs. Yes said the Chiefs and the

2043
01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:34,760
Speaker 3: Steelers Didver hosted the Dallas Cowboys about a month and

2044
01:30:34,760 --> 01:30:37,760
Speaker 3: a half ago and ran them off the field. They're

2045
01:30:38,080 --> 01:30:40,240
Speaker 3: on the backs of their defense, Dack, and that offense

2046
01:30:40,280 --> 01:30:42,519
Speaker 3: could do nothing about it. If this Charger team wants

2047
01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:44,599
Speaker 3: to be held in the same as team as Denver

2048
01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:47,880
Speaker 3: AKA being one of the more one of the best

2049
01:30:47,880 --> 01:30:50,439
Speaker 3: teams in the AC and being a championship contender, then

2050
01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:52,160
Speaker 3: this game is where they need to be able to

2051
01:30:52,200 --> 01:30:54,840
Speaker 3: exert their will. After Sunday, their final two games are

2052
01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:57,639
Speaker 3: against the Texans and those Denver Broncos, so two games

2053
01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:00,280
Speaker 3: with huge playoff implications and matchups that it could be

2054
01:31:00,280 --> 01:31:03,080
Speaker 3: a litmus test for them as they head into the postseason.

2055
01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:05,200
Speaker 3: So you can't overlook the obstacle that's in front of you.

2056
01:31:05,520 --> 01:31:07,680
Speaker 3: Go into Dallas, put your foot on the neck, and

2057
01:31:07,800 --> 01:31:09,639
Speaker 3: keep the positive moment. I'm going here in the final

2058
01:31:09,680 --> 01:31:12,080
Speaker 3: three weeks of the season, all right, I like.

2059
01:31:12,080 --> 01:31:15,240
Speaker 4: That old Troy epic failed potential. I could see it.

2060
01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:19,200
Speaker 4: It's the Chargers, after all, my old Troy epic failed potential.

2061
01:31:21,360 --> 01:31:24,559
Speaker 4: Everything was set up for the Panthers to take control

2062
01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:26,920
Speaker 4: of the division and make the Bucks have to beat

2063
01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:31,080
Speaker 4: them twice in order to take the NFC South from them,

2064
01:31:31,720 --> 01:31:35,559
Speaker 4: But then tragedy struck the team last week in New Orleans,

2065
01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:38,920
Speaker 4: where their plane went down and everyone died metaphorically speaking

2066
01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:42,360
Speaker 4: of course, because when you lose to the Saints, that

2067
01:31:42,479 --> 01:31:45,720
Speaker 4: does put you in a never ending tail spin and

2068
01:31:45,760 --> 01:31:48,840
Speaker 4: you are dead to me. As I've said before, it's

2069
01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:52,479
Speaker 4: the reverse Godfather three with the Panthers. Just when I

2070
01:31:52,520 --> 01:31:55,920
Speaker 4: thought I was in, they pulled me back out and

2071
01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:59,000
Speaker 4: not even Sonny suffered a worse death than my Panthers

2072
01:31:59,120 --> 01:32:02,360
Speaker 4: fandom did last week, as I watched Tyler Shook shuck

2073
01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:08,040
Speaker 4: whatever spelled funny. He led two scoring drives against what

2074
01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:10,599
Speaker 4: I thought was my Panthers in the final five minutes,

2075
01:32:11,320 --> 01:32:16,120
Speaker 4: and Charlie Smythe, a bleeping school teacher from Northern Ireland,

2076
01:32:16,640 --> 01:32:18,800
Speaker 4: almost had a four leaf clover up his ass or

2077
01:32:18,920 --> 01:32:20,640
Speaker 4: ate a bunch of lucky charms in the morning like

2078
01:32:20,680 --> 01:32:23,559
Speaker 4: it was his wheedies. Because that Irish kicker hit the

2079
01:32:23,600 --> 01:32:26,840
Speaker 4: game winner to bring the Saints to their fourth win

2080
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:31,040
Speaker 4: of the season. Half of their wins have come against

2081
01:32:31,439 --> 01:32:32,240
Speaker 4: my Panthers.

2082
01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:34,160
Speaker 2: This is calmer for all the trash he talked to.

2083
01:32:34,200 --> 01:32:37,679
Speaker 4: Bree, how dare you? I've never said a bad word

2084
01:32:38,280 --> 01:32:40,599
Speaker 4: my life. Okay, I'll stop.

2085
01:32:42,640 --> 01:32:42,920
Speaker 8: Now.

2086
01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:45,879
Speaker 4: If I have half a mind to go to Carolina

2087
01:32:45,960 --> 01:32:49,400
Speaker 4: myself and give this Panthers team a piece of whatever's

2088
01:32:49,439 --> 01:32:51,600
Speaker 4: left in my mind after watching that mind rot of

2089
01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:54,960
Speaker 4: a football game, I might have to the Panthers don't

2090
01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:58,200
Speaker 4: have that dog in them, let alone a panther. My

2091
01:32:58,320 --> 01:33:03,599
Speaker 4: cat Tuca, named after Panthers legend Biakabatuca, least a legend

2092
01:33:03,600 --> 01:33:05,760
Speaker 4: on earth too, if it wasn't for all the injuries. Yeah,

2093
01:33:05,880 --> 01:33:08,760
Speaker 4: you hear Tuca there, My cat has more fight in

2094
01:33:08,800 --> 01:33:12,320
Speaker 4: her than the actual Panthers out there. Look at my

2095
01:33:13,280 --> 01:33:18,080
Speaker 4: cut up hands, Kevin. Maybe it was the cat, or

2096
01:33:18,120 --> 01:33:21,160
Speaker 4: maybe it's like Stigmady from the sacrifices I've made for

2097
01:33:21,200 --> 01:33:24,599
Speaker 4: this god forsaken franchise. Why have you forsaken me, Panthers?

2098
01:33:25,120 --> 01:33:27,080
Speaker 4: Why do you make me curse and use the Lord's

2099
01:33:27,120 --> 01:33:30,559
Speaker 4: name in vain? Close to Christmas? We should be focused

2100
01:33:30,560 --> 01:33:34,960
Speaker 4: on the Redeemer and not this cursed team. There was

2101
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:37,800
Speaker 4: no panther to my knowledge at the Nativity scene, but

2102
01:33:37,880 --> 01:33:41,320
Speaker 4: there was a donkey. There was a donkey, And boy

2103
01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:44,400
Speaker 4: do I feel like a jackass forever attaching myself to

2104
01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:48,120
Speaker 4: this organization. And I'm sure the Bucks they're gonna give

2105
01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:50,599
Speaker 4: us a mule like kick to the face this weekend

2106
01:33:50,600 --> 01:33:54,200
Speaker 4: in Carolina. When you lose to the Saints twice, you

2107
01:33:54,240 --> 01:33:57,120
Speaker 4: don't deserve coal in your stocking. You deserve that donkey

2108
01:33:57,200 --> 01:34:01,960
Speaker 4: dung I've given up on this Panthers season. Officially, it's over.

2109
01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:05,719
Speaker 4: These are not my Panthers. These are Breeze Panthers because

2110
01:34:05,760 --> 01:34:07,400
Speaker 4: her Saints can beat them.

2111
01:34:07,920 --> 01:34:10,160
Speaker 3: I like the reverse psychology aspect for Adam. If I

2112
01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:12,439
Speaker 3: talked just enough trash about the Panthers yet again, they'll

2113
01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:14,120
Speaker 3: find a way to surprise me and get a victory.

2114
01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:15,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was the case. That would have won like

2115
01:34:15,840 --> 01:34:19,400
Speaker 4: the last five Super Bowls. It hasn't worked yet.

2116
01:34:19,720 --> 01:34:20,400
Speaker 2: No, it hasn't.

2117
01:34:20,479 --> 01:34:21,080
Speaker 1: No, it hasn't.

2118
01:34:21,320 --> 01:34:23,880
Speaker 4: Mark what's next under the microscope?

2119
01:34:24,120 --> 01:34:24,360
Speaker 2: Yes?

2120
01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:26,360
Speaker 3: Who should we watch closely this weekend? I'm looking at

2121
01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:28,960
Speaker 3: those Chicago Bears. Last week, I thought the Bears would

2122
01:34:28,960 --> 01:34:31,639
Speaker 3: be a danger against a fairly scrappy Cleveland Browns team

2123
01:34:31,640 --> 01:34:33,960
Speaker 3: like I talked about a second ago, and that was

2124
01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:36,360
Speaker 3: not the case, not in the least bit. Bears came

2125
01:34:36,360 --> 01:34:38,960
Speaker 3: out early, got off to a fourteen nothing lead, and

2126
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:41,120
Speaker 3: never really look back at that point in time, As

2127
01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:44,200
Speaker 3: has been the case all season long. Caleb Williams overall

2128
01:34:44,280 --> 01:34:47,200
Speaker 3: numbers not that impressive, missed a couple of easy throws,

2129
01:34:47,479 --> 01:34:49,680
Speaker 3: but overall played well, made big throws and did not

2130
01:34:49,760 --> 01:34:52,639
Speaker 3: turn the ball over. That defense has continued to impress

2131
01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:55,639
Speaker 3: and forced turnovers. The Jalen Johnson played, you talked about

2132
01:34:55,680 --> 01:34:57,599
Speaker 3: Jerry Judy having a pop out of his hands and

2133
01:34:57,760 --> 01:34:58,920
Speaker 3: Johnson being able to catch it.

2134
01:34:59,280 --> 01:34:59,760
Speaker 2: That was still in.

2135
01:35:00,280 --> 01:35:03,200
Speaker 3: To be honest with you, I'm still gonna give it

2136
01:35:03,200 --> 01:35:05,040
Speaker 3: to him. That wears like, oh my god, I thought

2137
01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:06,639
Speaker 3: he gave a catch up a bounce right in my chest.

2138
01:35:06,640 --> 01:35:08,720
Speaker 3: I'll go ahead and take that, thank you. But if

2139
01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:10,200
Speaker 3: you look at the DNA, I'll say this, if you

2140
01:35:10,200 --> 01:35:11,760
Speaker 3: look at the DNA of teams that do win in

2141
01:35:11,800 --> 01:35:14,200
Speaker 3: the postseason at him, the Bears have shown, at least

2142
01:35:14,200 --> 01:35:16,840
Speaker 3: here in the regular season that they have some of

2143
01:35:16,840 --> 01:35:19,000
Speaker 3: those aspects working in their favor. They have a great

2144
01:35:19,040 --> 01:35:21,839
Speaker 3: running game, a defense that gives up a share of yards,

2145
01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:24,320
Speaker 3: but they lead the league in force turnovers, and a

2146
01:35:24,360 --> 01:35:26,720
Speaker 3: signal caller who wasn't turning the ball over and has

2147
01:35:26,760 --> 01:35:30,040
Speaker 3: the ability to make special off schedule throws. He might

2148
01:35:30,080 --> 01:35:31,599
Speaker 3: be one of the best in the league not named

2149
01:35:31,600 --> 01:35:33,680
Speaker 3: Mahomes and Josh Allen to be able to do that

2150
01:35:33,760 --> 01:35:36,320
Speaker 3: right now, So how will that manifests itself? And what

2151
01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:38,639
Speaker 3: is the de facto playoff game coming up on Sunday

2152
01:35:38,880 --> 01:35:41,400
Speaker 3: against or I should say tonight against Green Bay, that's

2153
01:35:41,400 --> 01:35:41,880
Speaker 3: the question.

2154
01:35:42,120 --> 01:35:42,760
Speaker 2: Two weeks ago on.

2155
01:35:42,760 --> 01:35:44,680
Speaker 3: Green Bay, I would venture to say Chicago didn't really

2156
01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:46,800
Speaker 3: play all that well. It felt like a game that

2157
01:35:46,840 --> 01:35:49,080
Speaker 3: the Packers were thoroughly dominating, and they got out to

2158
01:35:49,120 --> 01:35:51,320
Speaker 3: a big lead. The Bears are right there knocking on

2159
01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:53,479
Speaker 3: the door of tying the game at the end before

2160
01:35:53,479 --> 01:35:57,040
Speaker 3: Caleb threw a critical pick in the end zone in

2161
01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:59,480
Speaker 3: the final seconds. The Bears have been under the microscope

2162
01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:01,280
Speaker 3: for me a lot this season, mostly because I was

2163
01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:04,519
Speaker 3: fascinated by the potential influence that Ben Johnson can have

2164
01:36:04,760 --> 01:36:08,040
Speaker 3: on Caleb's progression. To my surprise, and it probably shouldn't

2165
01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:10,639
Speaker 3: be considering what his offenses looked like in Detroit. He's

2166
01:36:10,680 --> 01:36:12,920
Speaker 3: actually turned around that offensive line of that running game

2167
01:36:12,960 --> 01:36:16,400
Speaker 3: more than anything, and I think that's just as instrumental

2168
01:36:16,400 --> 01:36:18,720
Speaker 3: in Caleb Williams playing as well as he's played this

2169
01:36:18,800 --> 01:36:21,040
Speaker 3: year as anything. He's had a lot less pressure on

2170
01:36:21,080 --> 01:36:23,600
Speaker 3: his shoulders because DeAndre Swift, the offensive line of that

2171
01:36:23,720 --> 01:36:27,960
Speaker 3: run game has been excellent throughout this entire season. Now, granted,

2172
01:36:28,000 --> 01:36:30,120
Speaker 3: this is not the Bengals or the Giants or the Vikings.

2173
01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:31,840
Speaker 3: This is the team that you have to beat if

2174
01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:34,240
Speaker 3: you're going to compete from and go from a worse

2175
01:36:34,280 --> 01:36:38,040
Speaker 3: to first campaign here in the the NFC, the NFC East.

2176
01:36:38,120 --> 01:36:39,720
Speaker 2: So the Packers are limping into this game.

2177
01:36:39,760 --> 01:36:42,760
Speaker 3: By the way, Micah Parsons obviously going to be humongous

2178
01:36:42,760 --> 01:36:46,160
Speaker 3: loss to their Super Bowl chances, let alone them trying

2179
01:36:46,160 --> 01:36:48,639
Speaker 3: to win the division. Zach tom on the old line

2180
01:36:49,160 --> 01:36:52,000
Speaker 3: questionable this week, may not play. Josh Jaco's been banged up.

2181
01:36:52,080 --> 01:36:54,280
Speaker 3: Jayden Reid is also banged up, like he talked about earlier.

2182
01:36:57,000 --> 01:36:58,720
Speaker 3: I think he's questionable as well. So I think he

2183
01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:00,960
Speaker 3: did practice, so that's a good son. I thought he

2184
01:37:01,000 --> 01:37:03,400
Speaker 3: broke his collar building on that play. Honestly, it looked

2185
01:37:03,400 --> 01:37:06,080
Speaker 3: pretty brutal. Looked it looked absolutely brutal. And this is,

2186
01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:07,719
Speaker 3: by the way, has been the story of the Green

2187
01:37:07,720 --> 01:37:11,280
Speaker 3: Bay Packers with Jordan Love. He just can't keep receivers healthy.

2188
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:13,120
Speaker 3: For the life of him. It's been ridiculous what he's

2189
01:37:13,120 --> 01:37:15,080
Speaker 3: dealt with. And receiver issues, by the way, going to

2190
01:37:15,160 --> 01:37:16,960
Speaker 3: be something when it comes to the Bears as well.

2191
01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:19,240
Speaker 3: They don't have Roma dunesa Luther Burden also going to

2192
01:37:19,240 --> 01:37:20,920
Speaker 3: be out, so that injuries are going to be a

2193
01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:23,160
Speaker 3: factor for both teams in this game, and by the way,

2194
01:37:23,240 --> 01:37:24,960
Speaker 3: not just a big game. In terms of the division.

2195
01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:26,840
Speaker 3: Both of these teams are neck and neck with the

2196
01:37:26,920 --> 01:37:28,439
Speaker 3: likes of the forty nine ers and lines. When it

2197
01:37:28,479 --> 01:37:30,720
Speaker 3: comes to the NFC wildcard spot. We talked about the

2198
01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:32,960
Speaker 3: forty nine ers having a chance to win that division,

2199
01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:35,280
Speaker 3: that the wildcard situation is still kind of a bit

2200
01:37:35,280 --> 01:37:38,080
Speaker 3: of a muddle mess in the NFC too. So, by

2201
01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:39,639
Speaker 3: the way, I will say this, take a wild guess

2202
01:37:39,720 --> 01:37:42,000
Speaker 3: Toho Chicago's finals two opponents are this season.

2203
01:37:43,360 --> 01:37:45,280
Speaker 4: Lions forty nine ers.

2204
01:37:45,320 --> 01:37:47,840
Speaker 3: In the Lions teams, they are right in the thick

2205
01:37:48,080 --> 01:37:49,720
Speaker 3: of a potential wildcart race with.

2206
01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:52,960
Speaker 4: So they're basically in the playoffs already. This is playoff mode.

2207
01:37:52,880 --> 01:37:55,040
Speaker 3: One thousand percent at him, this is these are playoff

2208
01:37:55,080 --> 01:37:56,840
Speaker 3: games for them right now. So similar to the charges

2209
01:37:56,840 --> 01:37:58,920
Speaker 3: will I talked about earlier having to be in playoff mode,

2210
01:37:59,040 --> 01:38:00,360
Speaker 3: that is where the Bears.

2211
01:38:00,560 --> 01:38:03,200
Speaker 2: You have an opponent that vulnerable. I'm coming into your house.

2212
01:38:03,240 --> 01:38:05,800
Speaker 3: That's right, coach, coming into your house on primetime on

2213
01:38:05,840 --> 01:38:08,680
Speaker 3: Saturday night. You better take advantage. I'm not gonna call

2214
01:38:08,720 --> 01:38:10,599
Speaker 3: it a must win, but if we're gonna take you

2215
01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:13,400
Speaker 3: for real as a contender, here's Chicago in the NFC.

2216
01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:14,960
Speaker 2: This is a game you have to win.

2217
01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:17,519
Speaker 4: All right, under the microscope For me, I'm putting all

2218
01:38:17,560 --> 01:38:21,280
Speaker 4: the comedians under the microscope who are making jokes at

2219
01:38:21,360 --> 01:38:25,080
Speaker 4: others expense. There's a lot of schadenfreuder going around right now.

2220
01:38:25,120 --> 01:38:28,080
Speaker 4: People are getting off when other people get fired and

2221
01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:31,240
Speaker 4: lose their job, and I think it's disgusting. You shouldn't

2222
01:38:31,280 --> 01:38:35,200
Speaker 4: laugh at other people's misfortune. And kickers sometimes are not

2223
01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:38,599
Speaker 4: looked at as human beings. And the things I've seen

2224
01:38:38,640 --> 01:38:43,240
Speaker 4: this week during Christmas time no less shameful, really out

2225
01:38:43,240 --> 01:38:46,080
Speaker 4: of line. Beneath this show, I'll tell you that. Right

2226
01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:50,680
Speaker 4: now you may have seen kicker Young Wayku waived for

2227
01:38:50,720 --> 01:38:53,200
Speaker 4: the second time this season, this time by the Giants

2228
01:38:53,200 --> 01:38:55,880
Speaker 4: this week only the second now, maybe his foot went

2229
01:38:55,880 --> 01:38:57,559
Speaker 4: the wrong way a couple of weeks ago when he

2230
01:38:57,560 --> 01:38:59,800
Speaker 4: missed kicking the ball and drove his club right into

2231
01:38:59,840 --> 01:39:02,479
Speaker 4: the hed of the grass. In this case, some have

2232
01:39:02,960 --> 01:39:06,240
Speaker 4: created a meme of him next to the awkward dance

2233
01:39:06,320 --> 01:39:09,280
Speaker 4: that Elaine did and Seinfeld I think in the final season,

2234
01:39:09,439 --> 01:39:11,840
Speaker 4: like that's kind of how he looked trying to kick

2235
01:39:11,880 --> 01:39:15,080
Speaker 4: that ball. But after missing two field goals, last week

2236
01:39:15,080 --> 01:39:18,559
Speaker 4: against the Commanders, the Giants said, enough is enough. But

2237
01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:21,559
Speaker 4: I've had enough of these jokes based upon his name

2238
01:39:21,640 --> 01:39:25,360
Speaker 4: being spelled like young Ho cou. Yes, So I've gone

2239
01:39:25,360 --> 01:39:28,440
Speaker 4: on X to see just who was making the nastiest

2240
01:39:28,439 --> 01:39:34,160
Speaker 4: comments underneath. And this was under his news release and

2241
01:39:34,200 --> 01:39:38,519
Speaker 4: these are insensitive comments and you people will be called out.

2242
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:42,360
Speaker 4: Adam Koffler on X, You're never getting a follow for me. Not.

2243
01:39:42,479 --> 01:39:47,040
Speaker 4: After taking a personal shot at an unflattering photo used

2244
01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:50,559
Speaker 4: in the release of Young Ho Yung Wayku, he said,

2245
01:39:51,200 --> 01:39:53,920
Speaker 4: more like old Hoku am I right, just because he

2246
01:39:53,960 --> 01:39:55,080
Speaker 4: didn't look great in the picture.

2247
01:39:55,680 --> 01:39:56,120
Speaker 2: Very clever?

2248
01:39:56,280 --> 01:40:02,280
Speaker 4: That's not cool. So did live on Blind said, Bro's

2249
01:40:02,280 --> 01:40:06,240
Speaker 4: starting to look like an old hoe. Not cool. Somebody

2250
01:40:06,280 --> 01:40:11,200
Speaker 4: said the Giants waved a young hoe. That was Swerve's house.

2251
01:40:12,680 --> 01:40:17,080
Speaker 4: It's young way now. Somebody else said the Giants are

2252
01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:20,320
Speaker 4: treating kickers like temporary passwords because they've been on their

2253
01:40:20,360 --> 01:40:25,280
Speaker 4: third kicker already this season. That's actually my attempt.

2254
01:40:26,120 --> 01:40:27,320
Speaker 2: That's pretty good. That's terrible.

2255
01:40:27,880 --> 01:40:33,040
Speaker 4: Somebody else said, given that he was waved, yeah, well

2256
01:40:33,080 --> 01:40:38,720
Speaker 4: he waved a few kicks first unkind Someone called him

2257
01:40:38,800 --> 01:40:45,920
Speaker 4: young waved coup. That's not cool. It's not young waved coop.

2258
01:40:48,920 --> 01:40:51,280
Speaker 4: Someone just said, I can't believe his name is young Hoe.

2259
01:40:51,920 --> 01:40:57,120
Speaker 4: It's not Yeah, it's young way Coup stop it. Somebody

2260
01:40:57,160 --> 01:41:00,840
Speaker 4: else blamed him because they used him in and missed

2261
01:41:00,840 --> 01:41:02,599
Speaker 4: a seventeen yard field coal.

2262
01:41:02,720 --> 01:41:04,280
Speaker 2: It seems like justification enough to me.

2263
01:41:04,520 --> 01:41:07,080
Speaker 4: That's on you. You have the controller in your hands.

2264
01:41:07,120 --> 01:41:07,960
Speaker 2: I'm still young Way.

2265
01:41:08,160 --> 01:41:08,559
Speaker 5: Come on.

2266
01:41:09,400 --> 01:41:12,080
Speaker 4: Somebody else said it ain't easy being a young ho,

2267
01:41:12,880 --> 01:41:18,400
Speaker 4: not cool, and then finally someone said, another hoe on

2268
01:41:18,439 --> 01:41:25,840
Speaker 4: the streets. All these jokes immature, disgusting. Good God, that

2269
01:41:25,920 --> 01:41:30,240
Speaker 4: young Ho has a family, okay, Young Wayku has a family. Okay,

2270
01:41:31,560 --> 01:41:35,800
Speaker 4: So let's show a little bit of grace during this

2271
01:41:35,840 --> 01:41:38,640
Speaker 4: difficult time. He's made like twenty five million though in

2272
01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:42,720
Speaker 4: the league, so he's doing fine. He's all right, all right.

2273
01:41:42,920 --> 01:41:44,439
Speaker 2: By the way, I'm sure these are jokes he's never

2274
01:41:44,439 --> 01:41:45,320
Speaker 2: heard before in his life.

2275
01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:49,280
Speaker 4: So yeah, in grade school. Yes, And you guys think

2276
01:41:49,320 --> 01:41:54,360
Speaker 4: this is funny? Now pathetic? Last category here, redemption round.

2277
01:41:54,800 --> 01:41:56,960
Speaker 2: Kevin. It's like, how many Fike Newton jokes I heard

2278
01:41:56,960 --> 01:41:59,000
Speaker 2: in my in my childhood? He was like, oh, I sorry,

2279
01:41:59,000 --> 01:41:59,439
Speaker 2: he fake?

2280
01:42:00,040 --> 01:42:03,600
Speaker 4: I was like, what about Brian Seman? Go figures. So

2281
01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:05,839
Speaker 4: Kevin figures go figures.

2282
01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:08,360
Speaker 3: Shit, Thanks Brian, I've been haven't heard that one thousand

2283
01:42:08,360 --> 01:42:09,240
Speaker 3: times in my life.

2284
01:42:09,040 --> 01:42:10,400
Speaker 2: Already, voice to the Clippers.

2285
01:42:10,800 --> 01:42:12,559
Speaker 3: I'm going with the Patriots on the road, taking on

2286
01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:14,720
Speaker 3: Baltimore on Sunday Night football. I mentioned last week when

2287
01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:17,479
Speaker 3: I talked about the Bills Patriots game and how important

2288
01:42:17,479 --> 01:42:19,240
Speaker 3: it was for Buffalo to win. I said it was

2289
01:42:19,240 --> 01:42:20,800
Speaker 3: as close to a must win as you can get

2290
01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:23,559
Speaker 3: without actually being a must win game. And I think

2291
01:42:23,560 --> 01:42:27,559
Speaker 3: the Patriots find themselves in that situation Sunday night in Baltimore. Now, look,

2292
01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:29,839
Speaker 3: shauld you give me a look at him. I understand

2293
01:42:29,840 --> 01:42:31,840
Speaker 3: people are looking at it from a Ravens perspective and saying,

2294
01:42:31,840 --> 01:42:35,280
Speaker 3: hold up, it's actually a must win for them. They're

2295
01:42:35,360 --> 01:42:37,920
Speaker 3: quite literally fighting for their playoff lives. They cannot forward

2296
01:42:37,960 --> 01:42:40,400
Speaker 3: another loss. They have to win out. And yes, this

2297
01:42:40,520 --> 01:42:43,000
Speaker 3: is true, and I don't want to offend any Ravens

2298
01:42:43,040 --> 01:42:45,600
Speaker 3: fans out there. Yes it's a must win for you,

2299
01:42:45,640 --> 01:42:48,720
Speaker 3: but honestly, you're not a Super Bowl contender regardless of

2300
01:42:48,760 --> 01:42:49,200
Speaker 3: what happened.

2301
01:42:50,160 --> 01:42:53,599
Speaker 2: So to put it less eloquently, you ain't going nowhere anyway.

2302
01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:56,479
Speaker 3: If Baltimore somehow finds a way to win the AFC North,

2303
01:42:56,479 --> 01:42:57,439
Speaker 3: which is very possible.

2304
01:42:57,960 --> 01:42:59,760
Speaker 2: Is there anyone who feels confident that they can win

2305
01:42:59,760 --> 01:43:00,519
Speaker 2: a p game.

2306
01:43:02,479 --> 01:43:02,679
Speaker 5: No.

2307
01:43:03,400 --> 01:43:06,080
Speaker 3: Look, I'll say this so as a division winner, which

2308
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:08,559
Speaker 3: is ridiculous. You have a home game, you can find

2309
01:43:08,560 --> 01:43:11,639
Speaker 3: a way to win, depending on who you play right

2310
01:43:11,680 --> 01:43:13,840
Speaker 3: now the way things are shaping up. If you win

2311
01:43:13,880 --> 01:43:17,839
Speaker 3: the North, there's a cavalcade of people you can the Chargers, Broncos, Bills, Texans, Patriots.

2312
01:43:17,840 --> 01:43:19,920
Speaker 3: There's a list of people that you can Of all

2313
01:43:20,040 --> 01:43:22,840
Speaker 3: those teams that I listed, you're picking them to beat

2314
01:43:22,840 --> 01:43:23,320
Speaker 3: any of them.

2315
01:43:23,560 --> 01:43:23,880
Speaker 2: I'm not.

2316
01:43:24,439 --> 01:43:26,960
Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson wasn't always at his best in the playoffs

2317
01:43:27,040 --> 01:43:28,559
Speaker 4: during good regular seasons.

2318
01:43:28,920 --> 01:43:30,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's we forget that point.

2319
01:43:31,080 --> 01:43:32,680
Speaker 3: So while this is a literal must win for the

2320
01:43:32,720 --> 01:43:34,680
Speaker 3: Ravens playoff hops, I think it's a near must win

2321
01:43:34,760 --> 01:43:37,000
Speaker 3: for the Patriots, who find themselves with just a one

2322
01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:39,639
Speaker 3: game lead over Buffalo in the East with just three

2323
01:43:39,680 --> 01:43:42,200
Speaker 3: games remaining. And look, yes, while I don't think the

2324
01:43:42,280 --> 01:43:44,920
Speaker 3: Ravens or the Steelers will be formidable in the first round,

2325
01:43:45,160 --> 01:43:47,000
Speaker 3: you can't underestimate a team that's playing at home in

2326
01:43:47,040 --> 01:43:48,960
Speaker 3: the playoffs. You mentioned this earlier in the show, Adam,

2327
01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:51,920
Speaker 3: that's seven to nine Seaawks team that beaten an eleven

2328
01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:55,160
Speaker 3: wins Saints team with that beast mode run by Marshawn Lynch.

2329
01:43:55,520 --> 01:43:58,880
Speaker 3: So as unconfident as I am that Baltimore and into

2330
01:43:58,880 --> 01:44:01,160
Speaker 3: a lesser extent, Pittsburgh will be able to win a

2331
01:44:01,160 --> 01:44:03,880
Speaker 3: playoff game. It certainly helps if you're able to host

2332
01:44:03,880 --> 01:44:05,800
Speaker 3: that game. And by the way, so I'll go off

2333
01:44:05,800 --> 01:44:07,639
Speaker 3: on a short tangent here too, by the way, because

2334
01:44:07,640 --> 01:44:10,559
Speaker 3: I hate this is so ridiculous, the playoff format in

2335
01:44:10,600 --> 01:44:13,280
Speaker 3: the NFL, Gadam Kavin. The fact that division winners are

2336
01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:17,040
Speaker 3: guaranteed a home playoff game, it makes no sense whatsoever.

2337
01:44:17,320 --> 01:44:19,360
Speaker 3: And I know the Lions brought this to the table

2338
01:44:19,400 --> 01:44:21,360
Speaker 3: at the league meetings in the offseason and they were

2339
01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:23,160
Speaker 3: shot down for whatever reason.

2340
01:44:23,200 --> 01:44:23,760
Speaker 2: And I know why.

2341
01:44:23,800 --> 01:44:25,479
Speaker 3: It is the owners. They want to be able to

2342
01:44:25,479 --> 01:44:27,360
Speaker 3: get themselves a home game for winning the division. That's

2343
01:44:27,360 --> 01:44:29,680
Speaker 3: more money in their pockets. I understand it. From a

2344
01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:32,080
Speaker 3: competitive standpoint, it's absolutely absurd.

2345
01:44:32,160 --> 01:44:34,519
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what. Nobody from the NFC South was

2346
01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:35,439
Speaker 4: for changing the rule.

2347
01:44:35,560 --> 01:44:36,439
Speaker 2: No, I'm sure they're not.

2348
01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:39,800
Speaker 3: The idea that a potential twelve or thirteen team win,

2349
01:44:39,960 --> 01:44:42,640
Speaker 3: a team like the Bills or the Patriots go to

2350
01:44:42,640 --> 01:44:44,479
Speaker 3: the NFC where it talked about the Rams and Seahawks

2351
01:44:44,520 --> 01:44:46,599
Speaker 3: earlier that you could fall from the one seed.

2352
01:44:46,479 --> 01:44:49,919
Speaker 2: To the five seed. Highway robbery, highway robbery.

2353
01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:51,880
Speaker 3: Why are we playing the regular season if you're telling

2354
01:44:51,880 --> 01:44:53,880
Speaker 3: me that my stellar record has less merit than the

2355
01:44:53,920 --> 01:44:56,280
Speaker 3: team with four or fewer victories because they happen to

2356
01:44:56,280 --> 01:45:00,439
Speaker 3: play in a terrible division that year. Stupid, but anyway, digress,

2357
01:45:00,439 --> 01:45:03,400
Speaker 3: all right, So the Patriots, by the way, need to

2358
01:45:03,400 --> 01:45:05,960
Speaker 3: get this victory against Baltimore to have hopes to be

2359
01:45:05,960 --> 01:45:07,560
Speaker 3: able to hold on to the NFC or to the

2360
01:45:07,600 --> 01:45:09,759
Speaker 3: AFC East Championship, because right now it's.

2361
01:45:09,600 --> 01:45:12,160
Speaker 2: Teetering quickly.

2362
01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:16,960
Speaker 4: My redemption round, I think Gardner Minshew's gonna play better

2363
01:45:17,479 --> 01:45:20,160
Speaker 4: and not have a quarterback rating of negative one hundred

2364
01:45:20,160 --> 01:45:21,800
Speaker 4: like he had throwing that pick at the end of

2365
01:45:21,800 --> 01:45:23,920
Speaker 4: the game after Patrick Mahomes went out with the knee

2366
01:45:23,920 --> 01:45:27,200
Speaker 4: injury last week that basically ended their season because they

2367
01:45:27,200 --> 01:45:30,559
Speaker 4: can't make the playoffs in case, this week he's taking

2368
01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:33,679
Speaker 4: on the Titans. Minshew magic is back. He's no longer

2369
01:45:33,720 --> 01:45:38,400
Speaker 4: a Raider. The magic is back. Coming up next, we

2394
01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:53,280
Speaker 4: Right, Kevin, we already saw Oklahoma falls Alabama earlier tonight

2395
01:46:53,920 --> 01:46:56,680
Speaker 4: later today though, we got three more games here in

2396
01:46:56,720 --> 01:46:58,519
Speaker 4: the first round of the college football playoff.

2397
01:46:58,800 --> 01:47:01,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, two ones and one I think is going to

2398
01:47:01,400 --> 01:47:02,960
Speaker 3: be a total blowout. If we want to get your

2399
01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:04,920
Speaker 3: Oregon DUTs out of the way, they're adam for her.

2400
01:47:04,920 --> 01:47:06,160
Speaker 3: To be honest with you, I'm like, this is no

2401
01:47:06,200 --> 01:47:07,760
Speaker 3: disrespect to James Madison.

2402
01:47:07,400 --> 01:47:09,160
Speaker 4: As long as James Madison don't get him out of

2403
01:47:09,160 --> 01:47:09,360
Speaker 4: the way.

2404
01:47:09,400 --> 01:47:14,479
Speaker 3: You know, I just don't see how they can possibly

2405
01:47:14,520 --> 01:47:17,360
Speaker 3: hold up in this game considering so, you know, James

2406
01:47:17,439 --> 01:47:20,120
Speaker 3: Madison's lost early in the season, I believe was what

2407
01:47:20,240 --> 01:47:22,080
Speaker 3: Louisville and they got run off of the field.

2408
01:47:22,160 --> 01:47:22,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2409
01:47:22,360 --> 01:47:25,960
Speaker 3: Great, and Louisville is an average with all due respect

2410
01:47:25,960 --> 01:47:27,519
Speaker 3: to them acc team.

2411
01:47:27,600 --> 01:47:29,800
Speaker 4: They did beat Miami, but we all thought that was

2412
01:47:29,920 --> 01:47:31,280
Speaker 4: kind of a bad loss from Miami.

2413
01:47:31,600 --> 01:47:32,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2414
01:47:32,240 --> 01:47:34,240
Speaker 3: So now you have Oregon, and by the way, James

2415
01:47:34,280 --> 01:47:37,880
Speaker 3: Madison is mostly buoyed by their run game, and Oregon

2416
01:47:38,040 --> 01:47:40,759
Speaker 3: one of the best run defenses in the entire country,

2417
01:47:40,920 --> 01:47:42,760
Speaker 3: one of the best defensive fronts in the country, one

2418
01:47:42,760 --> 01:47:45,479
Speaker 3: of the best offensive fronts in the country, I can

2419
01:47:45,520 --> 01:47:47,320
Speaker 3: see with the spread on this is what twenty and

2420
01:47:47,360 --> 01:47:49,800
Speaker 3: a half, It would not surprise me if this was

2421
01:47:49,800 --> 01:47:51,080
Speaker 3: covered by the end of the first quarter.

2422
01:47:51,120 --> 01:47:53,200
Speaker 4: To be honest with you, that's the joke to me.

2423
01:47:53,920 --> 01:47:56,840
Speaker 4: We have a twelve team playoff. There should not be

2424
01:47:56,920 --> 01:48:02,080
Speaker 4: a combination of any two teams in the twelve and

2425
01:48:02,160 --> 01:48:06,200
Speaker 4: the new playoff that give you a spread this lopsided

2426
01:48:06,320 --> 01:48:09,439
Speaker 4: with a favorite being favorited by twenty one and a

2427
01:48:09,479 --> 01:48:13,559
Speaker 4: half points. That tells you James Madison should not be in.

2428
01:48:14,040 --> 01:48:17,840
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. We could have had BYU and Notre Dame in,

2429
01:48:18,080 --> 01:48:21,439
Speaker 4: but we had to put in James Madison Tulane. That

2430
01:48:21,720 --> 01:48:24,760
Speaker 4: just it bothers me. And if Oakland or excuse me,

2431
01:48:24,760 --> 01:48:31,280
Speaker 4: if Oregon runs them off the floor or the field, whatever,

2432
01:48:31,800 --> 01:48:35,320
Speaker 4: because they're forty four and two in their last forty

2433
01:48:35,360 --> 01:48:41,280
Speaker 4: six games at Austin, I don't know. Look, there's always

2434
01:48:41,360 --> 01:48:44,400
Speaker 4: changes that have to be made with the playoff playoff format,

2435
01:48:44,560 --> 01:48:47,360
Speaker 4: and there will be more here and they'll just expand

2436
01:48:47,400 --> 01:48:51,760
Speaker 4: it to sixteen and twenty four, like Brady Papinga said, eventually.

2437
01:48:52,040 --> 01:48:55,439
Speaker 4: But this is an obvious one that everyone could have

2438
01:48:55,520 --> 01:48:59,960
Speaker 4: seen coming because it happened to a degree last season,

2439
01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:03,640
Speaker 4: and it's happening again now. But this is worse. Honestly,

2440
01:49:03,720 --> 01:49:06,559
Speaker 4: this is much worse than what we saw last year

2441
01:49:06,600 --> 01:49:07,439
Speaker 4: with Boise State.

2442
01:49:07,520 --> 01:49:09,719
Speaker 3: Well, the agreedious part about Boise State, and they admended

2443
01:49:09,720 --> 01:49:11,000
Speaker 3: it this year, was the fact that they had to

2444
01:49:11,040 --> 01:49:13,759
Speaker 3: buy simply because they won their conference, even though they shouldn't.

2445
01:49:13,960 --> 01:49:15,799
Speaker 3: They were not one of the four best teams obvious,

2446
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:18,040
Speaker 3: So the very least they corrected that part of it.

2447
01:49:17,960 --> 01:49:18,719
Speaker 4: That was worse.

2448
01:49:19,080 --> 01:49:21,400
Speaker 3: And it was a weird quirk this year because the

2449
01:49:21,439 --> 01:49:25,559
Speaker 3: ACC champion Duke was so bad that they couldn't justify

2450
01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:27,639
Speaker 3: putting them in the top twenty five, so by default

2451
01:49:27,640 --> 01:49:29,679
Speaker 3: they had to take the five highest, the four highest

2452
01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:32,559
Speaker 3: Rady conference champions, so they had to put James Madison

2453
01:49:32,600 --> 01:49:35,200
Speaker 3: in there. Hopefully the rule gets a mended yet again

2454
01:49:35,240 --> 01:49:37,120
Speaker 3: at some point. And I've said this and this is

2455
01:49:37,160 --> 01:49:39,320
Speaker 3: no disrespect. And I know Nick Saban got a lot

2456
01:49:39,320 --> 01:49:41,479
Speaker 3: of flat earlier this week saying I think he compared

2457
01:49:41,520 --> 01:49:42,360
Speaker 3: the group of five.

2458
01:49:42,200 --> 01:49:43,759
Speaker 2: Teams to minor league baseball teams.

2459
01:49:44,120 --> 01:49:45,519
Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm willing to go that far,

2460
01:49:45,560 --> 01:49:48,120
Speaker 3: because every now and then I do think and Brady

2461
01:49:48,160 --> 01:49:50,360
Speaker 3: Papinger brought up a good example in two thousand and four,

2462
01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:53,200
Speaker 3: that Utah team with Alex Smith was a really good team,

2463
01:49:53,200 --> 01:49:56,439
Speaker 3: and I would have enjoyed seeing them play in a major,

2464
01:49:56,520 --> 01:49:58,639
Speaker 3: you know, in a playoff situation like this, to see

2465
01:49:58,640 --> 01:50:01,120
Speaker 3: what they could have done to happen every single year.

2466
01:50:01,400 --> 01:50:02,760
Speaker 3: And I do think the group of five needs a

2467
01:50:02,800 --> 01:50:04,840
Speaker 3: seat at the table. But what I would do, at

2468
01:50:04,920 --> 01:50:07,599
Speaker 3: least if we're gonna keep this current format, they probably

2469
01:50:07,640 --> 01:50:09,719
Speaker 3: need to play their way in have the two highest

2470
01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:11,519
Speaker 3: rated group of five teams play each other in a

2471
01:50:11,520 --> 01:50:13,960
Speaker 3: playing game, and then have one of those be able

2472
01:50:14,040 --> 01:50:17,080
Speaker 3: to represent because quite honestly, this is no disrespect to

2473
01:50:17,120 --> 01:50:19,240
Speaker 3: James Madison or even two Lane taking on ole Miss.

2474
01:50:19,560 --> 01:50:20,960
Speaker 3: I don't know if either of those teams really have

2475
01:50:21,320 --> 01:50:22,880
Speaker 3: a legitimate shot of winning those games.

2476
01:50:22,920 --> 01:50:23,760
Speaker 2: And Tulane this.

2477
01:50:23,760 --> 01:50:25,880
Speaker 3: Is a rematch against Ole Miss going on the road

2478
01:50:25,960 --> 01:50:27,759
Speaker 3: yet again where they got run off of the field

2479
01:50:27,800 --> 01:50:28,639
Speaker 3: earlier in the season.

2480
01:50:28,800 --> 01:50:29,719
Speaker 2: And what's gonna change.

2481
01:50:29,760 --> 01:50:32,960
Speaker 4: I don't need to see it, I don't I'm good now.

2482
01:50:33,000 --> 01:50:35,040
Speaker 4: What's changed is Lane Kiffin is gone.

2483
01:50:35,080 --> 01:50:38,200
Speaker 2: I guess I'll be honest with you. I don't know

2484
01:50:38,200 --> 01:50:39,600
Speaker 2: how big of a how much of a difference that

2485
01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:40,519
Speaker 2: actually makes.

2486
01:50:40,360 --> 01:50:42,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, you and I could probably coach this game. He

2487
01:50:42,520 --> 01:50:44,439
Speaker 4: is a great play caller. Though he is a great

2488
01:50:44,479 --> 01:50:47,680
Speaker 4: play caller. But they won by thirty five points in

2489
01:50:47,720 --> 01:50:51,080
Speaker 4: the first meeting. Tulane just shouldn't be in. I don't care.

2490
01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:53,760
Speaker 4: They could win these games, and I'll say the same thing.

2491
01:50:54,400 --> 01:50:57,519
Speaker 4: It could be Boise State versus Oklahoma in the two

2492
01:50:57,560 --> 01:51:01,519
Speaker 4: thousand and seven Fiesta Bowl or whatever. With Chris blowing

2493
01:51:01,560 --> 01:51:02,480
Speaker 4: the guy's proposal.

2494
01:51:03,760 --> 01:51:04,200
Speaker 2: I do think.

2495
01:51:04,200 --> 01:51:05,519
Speaker 3: I'd mean, if you're going to be playing at the

2496
01:51:05,600 --> 01:51:08,120
Speaker 3: FBS level, as you have to give them at least

2497
01:51:08,120 --> 01:51:08,760
Speaker 3: some sort of care.

2498
01:51:08,760 --> 01:51:10,200
Speaker 2: It's a certain to a certain degree.

2499
01:51:10,240 --> 01:51:11,840
Speaker 3: I mean, look, we let all the teams that we

2500
01:51:11,880 --> 01:51:14,280
Speaker 3: allow win to the NCAA tournament, which I know basketball

2501
01:51:14,320 --> 01:51:16,880
Speaker 3: is different, there's more teams and all of that. I

2502
01:51:16,880 --> 01:51:18,719
Speaker 3: don't think it hurts them to be able to give

2503
01:51:19,000 --> 01:51:21,479
Speaker 3: the little guy at least one opportunity, one bite at

2504
01:51:21,479 --> 01:51:23,560
Speaker 3: the apple, especially if you were expanding. If it was

2505
01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:26,280
Speaker 3: a four team or a sixteen playoff and your shoehorning

2506
01:51:26,320 --> 01:51:28,280
Speaker 3: in a group of five or a group of six team,

2507
01:51:28,320 --> 01:51:31,679
Speaker 3: that's different. But if you're at twelve, fourteen, sixteen, twenty, whatever,

2508
01:51:31,720 --> 01:51:33,479
Speaker 3: this turns out to be. I don't think it hurts

2509
01:51:33,479 --> 01:51:35,840
Speaker 3: to get one of the men to get some representation.

2510
01:51:36,120 --> 01:51:38,799
Speaker 4: I agree with you. It's just one of those years

2511
01:51:38,880 --> 01:51:45,040
Speaker 4: where there was so much bickering and debating with BYU

2512
01:51:45,080 --> 01:51:48,479
Speaker 4: and Notre Dame, and this would have easily solved that

2513
01:51:48,560 --> 01:51:51,200
Speaker 4: problem right there. Just take these two teams out.

2514
01:51:51,320 --> 01:51:53,559
Speaker 3: You're right, the solution is going to be expanding this

2515
01:51:53,640 --> 01:51:55,880
Speaker 3: even more, giving the group of five their chance at

2516
01:51:55,840 --> 01:51:58,320
Speaker 3: their seat at the table, while also giving more power

2517
01:51:58,360 --> 01:51:59,880
Speaker 3: conference as a chance to be able to make the

2518
01:52:00,200 --> 01:52:01,240
Speaker 3: season and see what.

2519
01:52:01,160 --> 01:52:02,840
Speaker 2: They can do with it. So Oregon's gonna run James

2520
01:52:02,880 --> 01:52:03,799
Speaker 2: Madison off the field.

2521
01:52:04,080 --> 01:52:06,320
Speaker 3: Maybe Tulane I do like Jake retz Loft, the former

2522
01:52:06,320 --> 01:52:08,880
Speaker 3: BYU quarterback who's a really good player and had a

2523
01:52:08,880 --> 01:52:11,120
Speaker 3: really good season this year. Maybe he puts up a

2524
01:52:11,160 --> 01:52:12,760
Speaker 3: little bit of a fight for a half against Ole

2525
01:52:12,840 --> 01:52:15,240
Speaker 3: Miss with Tulane. But quite honestly, the Old Miss is

2526
01:52:15,280 --> 01:52:18,000
Speaker 3: what a seventeen and a half point favorite at last check? Yea,

2527
01:52:18,520 --> 01:52:20,320
Speaker 3: you know they probably end up covering that as well.

2528
01:52:20,320 --> 01:52:22,200
Speaker 3: Maybe it's closer, Maybe it's a back door cover.

2529
01:52:22,240 --> 01:52:22,880
Speaker 2: I could see it be.

2530
01:52:22,920 --> 01:52:24,800
Speaker 3: In the old fourteen point game, ten point game or

2531
01:52:24,840 --> 01:52:27,080
Speaker 3: something like that in the fourth quarter, and Olemoss ends

2532
01:52:27,120 --> 01:52:28,280
Speaker 3: up pulling away late all.

2533
01:52:28,320 --> 01:52:32,760
Speaker 4: Right quickly though. The game of the day Miami at

2534
01:52:32,800 --> 01:52:35,160
Speaker 4: Texas A and M, and they're favored by three and

2535
01:52:35,240 --> 01:52:39,840
Speaker 4: a half. Now I know what's gonna happen here. If

2536
01:52:39,880 --> 01:52:44,240
Speaker 4: Miami loses big, oh, Notre Dame fans are gonna be like, well,

2537
01:52:44,240 --> 01:52:46,599
Speaker 4: we only lost to Texas A and M by one point.

2538
01:52:46,840 --> 01:52:48,160
Speaker 4: Should have been us in there.

2539
01:52:48,240 --> 01:52:51,000
Speaker 2: Now here's a question. What if Miami loses to A

2540
01:52:51,120 --> 01:52:53,719
Speaker 2: and him by one point, then what's the debate?

2541
01:52:54,000 --> 01:52:55,639
Speaker 4: And there's no debate, then it's over.

2542
01:52:56,280 --> 01:52:57,240
Speaker 2: Clearly we should have been there.

2543
01:52:57,280 --> 01:53:00,559
Speaker 4: Miami, just don't lose by more than one or maybe

2544
01:53:00,680 --> 01:53:03,360
Speaker 4: even win the game. How about that, which.

2545
01:53:03,200 --> 01:53:04,599
Speaker 2: I could potentially see happening.

2546
01:53:04,640 --> 01:53:06,679
Speaker 3: Actually as good as an m is, you know, Miami's

2547
01:53:06,720 --> 01:53:09,040
Speaker 3: really good on both lines and Mario crystal Ball teams

2548
01:53:09,080 --> 01:53:11,920
Speaker 3: generally are some trash talk going back and forth from

2549
01:53:11,960 --> 01:53:15,160
Speaker 3: A and M's offensive line to Rubin Bain, Miami's best

2550
01:53:15,160 --> 01:53:17,600
Speaker 3: defensive lineman. I think their offensive starting left tackle for

2551
01:53:17,960 --> 01:53:19,519
Speaker 3: A and M said that he's not gonna have any

2552
01:53:19,520 --> 01:53:21,519
Speaker 3: problem where he's not scared of Ruben Bain who's thought

2553
01:53:21,560 --> 01:53:24,120
Speaker 3: of as one of the best prospects coming out in

2554
01:53:24,120 --> 01:53:26,519
Speaker 3: the draft this year. So a little bit of a

2555
01:53:26,520 --> 01:53:28,479
Speaker 3: little bit of bulletin board material there. So that'll be

2556
01:53:28,520 --> 01:53:30,760
Speaker 3: a fun matchup to watch up front on both lines.

2557
01:53:30,760 --> 01:53:32,360
Speaker 3: If Miami's able to run the ball and keep this

2558
01:53:32,400 --> 01:53:35,519
Speaker 3: thing close, I think they have a phenomenal chance of

2559
01:53:35,560 --> 01:53:37,040
Speaker 3: being able to win this game on the road. But

2560
01:53:37,360 --> 01:53:39,240
Speaker 3: if it turns out to a shootout and marsol Reid

2561
01:53:39,280 --> 01:53:41,479
Speaker 3: ends up playing better then he played in that last

2562
01:53:41,520 --> 01:53:44,200
Speaker 3: game against Texas, it's one of those games where if

2563
01:53:44,200 --> 01:53:46,400
Speaker 3: it's close, I love Miami, but I can see Texas

2564
01:53:46,400 --> 01:53:48,880
Speaker 3: A and m potentially winning by ten fourteen points too.

2565
01:53:49,120 --> 01:53:51,760
Speaker 4: I agree with you, but you mentioned me being a

2566
01:53:51,840 --> 01:53:54,560
Speaker 4: Ducks fan. That means I know Mario Cristi ball a

2567
01:53:54,600 --> 01:53:57,040
Speaker 4: little bit in big games on the road and none

2568
01:53:57,080 --> 01:53:58,920
Speaker 4: of the other the kids are playing their tail off

2569
01:53:59,000 --> 01:54:00,000
Speaker 4: and the conches.

2570
01:53:59,640 --> 01:54:02,960
Speaker 3: Are crystal Ball has had his his sheriff miscues, and

2571
01:54:03,000 --> 01:54:04,960
Speaker 3: Miami Hurricane fans will back you up on that too.

2572
01:54:05,280 --> 01:54:07,639
Speaker 2: So back to that Pittsburgh game a couple of years ago.

2573
01:54:07,600 --> 01:54:10,160
Speaker 4: Clock malfunctions due to brain malfunctions.

2574
01:54:10,280 --> 01:54:13,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I might give him not Mike I'm giving

2575
01:54:13,320 --> 01:54:15,280
Speaker 3: Mike Elko the coaching yet here, even though he has

2576
01:54:15,360 --> 01:54:18,840
Speaker 3: less experience as a head coach than Mario Christaball does so.

2577
01:54:18,840 --> 01:54:20,559
Speaker 3: But if I ultimately had to make a pick in

2578
01:54:20,600 --> 01:54:22,960
Speaker 3: this game, I think I'm taking Texas A and M.

2579
01:54:23,080 --> 01:54:25,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I also like Marcel Read a little

2580
01:54:25,479 --> 01:54:26,639
Speaker 4: bit more than Carson Beck.

2581
01:54:27,000 --> 01:54:29,080
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Carson Beck is good when he doesn't turn

2582
01:54:29,080 --> 01:54:30,439
Speaker 3: the ball over, which is not often.

2583
01:54:30,520 --> 01:54:32,320
Speaker 4: He's too much in a high wire act.

2584
01:54:32,360 --> 01:54:34,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a bit of a turnover machine and that

2585
01:54:34,040 --> 01:54:37,240
Speaker 3: and m defense thrives on that. So for that reason,

2586
01:54:37,440 --> 01:54:39,400
Speaker 3: I think Carson Bek turns the ball over more than

2587
01:54:39,440 --> 01:54:41,600
Speaker 3: a few times. And I think that Marcel Read balls

2588
01:54:41,640 --> 01:54:43,520
Speaker 3: out and plays better than he played in that last

2589
01:54:43,520 --> 01:54:45,200
Speaker 3: game against Texas. So that's why I think A and

2590
01:54:45,240 --> 01:54:46,240
Speaker 3: M end up getting this victory.

2591
01:54:46,280 --> 01:54:49,400
Speaker 4: But look, Notre Dame. If Miami gets blown out or

2592
01:54:49,480 --> 01:54:51,840
Speaker 4: loses by a touchdown, that doesn't mean you get to

2593
01:54:51,880 --> 01:54:55,440
Speaker 4: protest next year's Bowl game as well. Okay, relax, No.

2594
01:54:55,520 --> 01:54:58,160
Speaker 3: They will if it's not if it's not, if it's

2595
01:54:58,160 --> 01:55:02,120
Speaker 3: not enough the CFP, they definitely will. Although now there's

2596
01:55:02,120 --> 01:55:04,560
Speaker 3: a provision in the CFP that if they finish in

2597
01:55:04,600 --> 01:55:05,360
Speaker 3: the top twelve.

2598
01:55:05,520 --> 01:55:06,720
Speaker 2: They're guaranteed a spot.

2599
01:55:06,760 --> 01:55:09,480
Speaker 3: That's something they amended before this season started for next

2600
01:55:09,520 --> 01:55:10,080
Speaker 3: year's ranking.

2601
01:55:10,120 --> 01:55:12,120
Speaker 4: What is this bs?

2602
01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:14,960
Speaker 2: They may They make these changes every single year.

2603
01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:18,120
Speaker 3: And now the problem is the committee had signed an

2604
01:55:18,120 --> 01:55:20,080
Speaker 3: extension to be able to discuss whether or not they

2605
01:55:20,080 --> 01:55:22,960
Speaker 3: want to actually expand the playoff from twelve to sixteen

2606
01:55:23,040 --> 01:55:25,680
Speaker 3: or fourteen, whatever it is, And they have until mid January,

2607
01:55:25,880 --> 01:55:28,120
Speaker 3: which most people believe because of all the issues with

2608
01:55:28,200 --> 01:55:31,160
Speaker 3: Miami and Notre Dame in Alabama and whatever else, that

2609
01:55:31,240 --> 01:55:34,040
Speaker 3: there's optimism that the expansion might actually happen. And if

2610
01:55:34,040 --> 01:55:36,360
Speaker 3: that happens, it kind of blows all of the other

2611
01:55:36,400 --> 01:55:38,000
Speaker 3: agreements out of the water and they all have to

2612
01:55:38,040 --> 01:55:38,800

01:56:43,920 --> 01:56:45,720
Speaker 4: It gets the issue here, here's some bs going on

2639
01:56:45,760 --> 01:56:46,839
Speaker 4: because I don't understand.

2640
01:56:46,840 --> 01:56:47,800
Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about.

2641
01:56:47,800 --> 01:56:49,600
Speaker 4: What any problem you're about to understand?

2642
01:56:49,720 --> 01:56:52,440
Speaker 2: Okay, So last week on Today, okay.

2643
01:56:52,760 --> 01:56:55,800
Speaker 4: We were on opposite sides on the Chicago Browns game.

2644
01:56:56,160 --> 01:56:58,680
Speaker 4: Yes we were, and I ended up being right there

2645
01:56:58,920 --> 01:57:03,240
Speaker 4: this You did, Uh tough ass, Adam, because you still

2646
01:57:03,240 --> 01:57:05,360
Speaker 4: were one and three and Kevin went three and one.

2647
01:57:05,440 --> 01:57:08,600
Speaker 4: That was the only game I got, oh for real? Yes,

2648
01:57:10,320 --> 01:57:13,000
Speaker 4: and I really don't need. That was just three weeks remaining.

2649
01:57:13,040 --> 01:57:14,200
Speaker 4: This is week sixteen.

2650
01:57:14,920 --> 01:57:16,240
Speaker 3: Well, now it's the time for you to try to

2651
01:57:16,240 --> 01:57:18,760
Speaker 3: mount your rally there at him. I have faith in you.

2652
01:57:18,920 --> 01:57:21,880
Speaker 4: I'm gonna need a four and oh week here, and

2653
01:57:21,920 --> 01:57:23,920
Speaker 4: I haven't had one, I think all season long. Say,

2654
01:57:23,920 --> 01:57:25,040
Speaker 4: I don't know if either of us have had a

2655
01:57:25,040 --> 01:57:26,320
Speaker 4: four and a week, to be honest with you, no

2656
01:57:26,520 --> 01:57:27,120
Speaker 4: uf and half.

2657
01:57:27,400 --> 01:57:30,040
Speaker 2: Oh okay, sure I may have. I may have already

2658
01:57:30,040 --> 01:57:30,320
Speaker 2: known that.

2659
01:57:30,880 --> 01:57:33,800
Speaker 4: But anyway, look at this, this, this, this, this is

2660
01:57:34,000 --> 01:57:38,000
Speaker 4: this is fake humble, fake raggedocious humility going on. I

2661
01:57:38,000 --> 01:57:38,600
Speaker 4: don't like it.

2662
01:57:38,800 --> 01:57:40,960
Speaker 3: Oh the comeback starts now, Adam, All right about that?

2663
01:57:41,040 --> 01:57:42,720
Speaker 3: It's so sorry. So what's your So what's your on?

2664
01:57:42,960 --> 01:57:45,440
Speaker 3: We have teiffe two on two off. We have two

2665
01:57:45,480 --> 01:57:47,360
Speaker 3: games where you pick favorites. We have two games where

2666
01:57:47,360 --> 01:57:50,280
Speaker 3: you pick the underdogs to cover the spread. So give

2667
01:57:50,320 --> 01:57:52,120
Speaker 3: me an on, Adam, Let's start your four and oh

2668
01:57:52,120 --> 01:57:52,840
Speaker 3: streak this week.

2669
01:57:52,880 --> 01:57:56,080
Speaker 4: Well hold on now, player, Yeah, I'm twenty nine and

2670
01:57:56,160 --> 01:57:59,280
Speaker 4: thirty one now on the season. Okay, you're thirty four

2671
01:57:59,280 --> 01:58:04,800
Speaker 4: and twenty and Joel Klatt's thirty six and forty.

2672
01:58:05,040 --> 01:58:08,160
Speaker 2: The shots at Joel Klatt all right.

2673
01:58:08,640 --> 01:58:13,320
Speaker 4: My first on where I'm going with a favorite to

2674
01:58:13,560 --> 01:58:18,760
Speaker 4: cover this. On a favorite, I'm taking Denver minus three

2675
01:58:18,760 --> 01:58:21,200
Speaker 4: and a half at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

2676
01:58:21,440 --> 01:58:22,160
Speaker 2: That's a big game.

2677
01:58:23,200 --> 01:58:26,640
Speaker 4: I don't trust the Jaguars still, they've been beaten up

2678
01:58:26,640 --> 01:58:30,360
Speaker 4: on some sorry competition. I don't trust Trevor Lawrence against

2679
01:58:30,400 --> 01:58:34,640
Speaker 4: that defense. I think Denver covers the spread of three

2680
01:58:34,720 --> 01:58:36,839
Speaker 4: and a half. That's my first on what do you got?

2681
01:58:36,920 --> 01:58:38,360
Speaker 3: I didn't want to touch that one. I thought that

2682
01:58:38,440 --> 01:58:40,200
Speaker 3: Jacksonville might actually be able to put up a fight.

2683
01:58:40,200 --> 01:58:41,840
Speaker 3: I do think Denver wins, but we'll see how exactly

2684
01:58:41,840 --> 01:58:42,560
Speaker 3: how that plays out.

2685
01:58:42,800 --> 01:58:45,480
Speaker 4: I WoT, hey, hey, if you're not going to touch it,

2686
01:58:45,520 --> 01:58:47,640
Speaker 4: I don't need your analysis in case I'm wrong.

2687
01:58:47,880 --> 01:58:49,840
Speaker 2: Throwing in my opinion as all. That's all I'm doing.

2688
01:58:49,840 --> 01:58:53,080
Speaker 3: I like the Vikings as three point favorites over the Giants.

2689
01:58:53,120 --> 01:58:56,680
Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy. You know back in there that offense can

2690
01:58:56,720 --> 01:58:58,000
Speaker 3: fire up a little bit, and I love that. I

2691
01:58:58,040 --> 01:58:59,960
Speaker 3: love as the defense out there that they have is

2692
01:59:00,120 --> 01:59:02,680
Speaker 3: well so Brian Floor is against that Giants offense. So

2693
01:59:02,920 --> 01:59:05,440
Speaker 3: I like the Vikings cub with covering the three has

2694
01:59:05,440 --> 01:59:06,720
Speaker 3: three point favorites over the Giants.

2695
01:59:06,720 --> 01:59:09,560
Speaker 4: So that's my on, all right, Starry to do this

2696
01:59:09,600 --> 01:59:12,360
Speaker 4: to you, But after what the Raiders did last week,

2697
01:59:13,600 --> 01:59:16,280
Speaker 4: I know it's a big number. I got the Texans

2698
01:59:16,320 --> 01:59:20,560
Speaker 4: at home minus fourteen as my other on picking a

2699
01:59:20,600 --> 01:59:22,440
Speaker 4: favorite here, it's.

2700
01:59:22,120 --> 01:59:23,680
Speaker 2: Only fourteen, all right.

2701
01:59:23,920 --> 01:59:25,640
Speaker 3: So they got that half point back when we found

2702
01:59:25,640 --> 01:59:26,800
Speaker 3: out that Geno Smith is playing?

2703
01:59:26,840 --> 01:59:27,480
Speaker 2: Is that what happened?

2704
01:59:27,560 --> 01:59:31,320
Speaker 4: Oh he's playing? Does anybody want that to happen?

2705
01:59:32,080 --> 01:59:33,600
Speaker 1: The Raiders shot him?

2706
01:59:33,640 --> 01:59:34,320
Speaker 2: Does it matter?

2707
01:59:35,080 --> 01:59:37,920
Speaker 4: I don't know how they're gonna score against this defense. Yeah,

2708
01:59:38,080 --> 01:59:40,960
Speaker 4: they didn't score last week. Well, now they're taking on

2709
01:59:41,000 --> 01:59:44,480
Speaker 4: an even better defense. I like the Texans in this one.

2710
01:59:44,480 --> 01:59:45,800
Speaker 4: What you other on that was.

2711
01:59:45,880 --> 01:59:47,920
Speaker 3: Very tempted to take that one myself, to be honest

2712
01:59:47,960 --> 01:59:49,680
Speaker 3: with you, But that's that's a large number to lay,

2713
01:59:49,680 --> 01:59:51,600
Speaker 3: even with the Raiders, so I saw I stayed away

2714
01:59:51,600 --> 01:59:53,600
Speaker 3: from it. And this was a tough one too, But

2715
01:59:53,680 --> 01:59:57,280
Speaker 3: ultimately I like the Lions minus seven over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

2716
01:59:57,280 --> 01:59:59,240
Speaker 2: It must win really for both of these teams.

2717
01:59:59,560 --> 02:00:02,640
Speaker 3: I just think in the Dome at home for Detroit,

2718
02:00:03,400 --> 02:00:05,280
Speaker 3: they need this more or they're going to be able

2719
02:00:05,360 --> 02:00:07,280
Speaker 3: to put up more points than the Steelers are, but

2720
02:00:07,440 --> 02:00:11,160
Speaker 3: their offense is unstoppable. Both defenses, specifically, the Lion's defense

2721
02:00:11,200 --> 02:00:12,760
Speaker 3: is just really banged up at this point in time.

2722
02:00:12,960 --> 02:00:14,400
Speaker 3: But I don't know if the Steelers have enough to

2723
02:00:14,400 --> 02:00:15,840
Speaker 3: be able to keep up with them offensively. So a

2724
02:00:15,880 --> 02:00:17,839
Speaker 3: lot the Lions minus seven of this Pittsburgh.

2725
02:00:17,960 --> 02:00:20,080
Speaker 4: Wait a second, I didn't see that one. I liked

2726
02:00:20,120 --> 02:00:25,640
Speaker 4: that call. Damn it, all right, my offs, my underdogs,

2727
02:00:25,920 --> 02:00:27,280
Speaker 4: you can change, you can make a way change.

2728
02:00:27,400 --> 02:00:27,800
Speaker 2: I don't know.

2729
02:00:28,280 --> 02:00:31,520
Speaker 4: I'm resolute. You know what they said with the scantron,

2730
02:00:31,600 --> 02:00:32,920
Speaker 4: go with their initial instincts.

2731
02:00:33,280 --> 02:00:35,960
Speaker 2: See always color and see.

2732
02:00:36,000 --> 02:00:39,840
Speaker 4: It's worked great for me. Yeah, uh, this is not

2733
02:00:40,000 --> 02:00:42,560
Speaker 4: work great. I don't know what I'm doing here. Panthers

2734
02:00:42,600 --> 02:00:45,320
Speaker 4: plus three at home against Tampa Bay.

2735
02:00:46,040 --> 02:00:48,280
Speaker 3: If you talk trash about him for fifteen straight minutes

2736
02:00:48,280 --> 02:00:49,400
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden.

2737
02:00:49,120 --> 02:00:52,240
Speaker 4: Well they could still lose. I just need him to

2738
02:00:52,240 --> 02:00:54,360
Speaker 4: cover here. What do you got, all.

2739
02:00:54,320 --> 02:00:56,400
Speaker 3: Right, my off I got the Ravens three point favorites

2740
02:00:56,440 --> 02:00:57,960
Speaker 3: over the Patriots. That talks about it earlier. I know

2741
02:00:58,040 --> 02:00:59,440
Speaker 3: it's a must win for the Ravens, but I think

2742
02:00:59,480 --> 02:01:01,360
Speaker 3: it's a must for the Patriots. I think the Patriots

2743
02:01:01,400 --> 02:01:03,520
Speaker 3: cover the spread and get the victory there on Sunday

2744
02:01:03,600 --> 02:01:04,720
Speaker 3: Night football over Baltimore.

2745
02:01:04,760 --> 02:01:07,720
Speaker 4: Well, we talked me into this one. Browns plus ten

2746
02:01:07,760 --> 02:01:10,360
Speaker 4: and a half at home against the Buffalo Bills. I

2747
02:01:10,520 --> 02:01:13,440
Speaker 4: just think they could have a letdown game after that

2748
02:01:13,480 --> 02:01:16,400
Speaker 4: big comeback in New England and she do or can't

2749
02:01:16,440 --> 02:01:19,720
Speaker 4: play any worse. Last one for you, Well, I.

2750
02:01:19,680 --> 02:01:21,840
Speaker 3: Had the Packers as one point favorites over the Bears,

2751
02:01:21,840 --> 02:01:23,280
Speaker 3: but the Bears have now jumped them all of a

2752
02:01:23,320 --> 02:01:25,520
Speaker 3: sudden as one a f point favorites. So I'm a

2753
02:01:25,520 --> 02:01:26,960
Speaker 3: gonna guy. You know what, I'll go with the Bears.

2754
02:01:26,960 --> 02:01:28,880
Speaker 3: Why not FNA on FSR
