Show us once again, Why 0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:55.520 is the greatest player to ever play? I said to 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:59.360 Demons yesterday, I don't eat. You know how people if 0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:03.280 they have traumat childhoods, they block out memories. They just 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:07.120 have big patches of time missing. I said to Montay yesterday, 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.079 I don't even know how I was a football fan 0:02:10.840 --> 0:02:13.920 before Patrick Mahomes came into my life. I don't know 0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:18.560 how I dealt with Matt Castle and Brody Troyle and 0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:22.080 even the Alex Smith and Trent Green years were decent, 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.400 but you just knew that the hammer was coming at 0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:30.080 some point. Now you are the hammer. Now you get 0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:33.000 to be that guy, I gotta tell you rooting for 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:37.480 Patrick Mahomes ten out of ten strongly recommend. Here is 0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:41.960 what is not on the show today. Not making the 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.880 show today is Kyrie rejoining the Nets. Also, I don't 0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:49.200 think making the show today Klay Thompson showing one forty 0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:52.160 one and back to back good games. But yesterday's game 0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:54.359 was outstanding and they needed all of it to beat 0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:57.919 the Rockets because they're not any good. But Clay Clay 0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:01.480 bouncing back is a great story. The Rams dropping to 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:08.640 three and seven, Matt Stafford injured. The Rams are two 0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:13.480 weeks away from officially having the worst defense of a 0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:18.440 Super Bowl in NFL history, and that is a guarantee 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:20.280 that it's coming. Do you know off the top of 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:21.760 your head who the Rams play next week? 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:23.880 By the way, Uh, maybe the Bills. 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:27.680 No, the Chiefs. Oh, they play the Chiefs. That'd be nice. 0:03:28.040 --> 0:03:32.200 And then Team USA at two pm Eastern today on 0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:35.640 Fox plays Wales. If you're watching US live, it obviously 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:40.000 hasn't happened yet. England just trounced a run in the 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:45.920 opening game today. Yesterday Ecuador crushed Cutter in the opening 0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:47.960 game of the World Cup. We will cover the World 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:51.680 Cup on this show. However, the England Whales game, I'm sorry, 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:54.600 the US Whales game, pardon me, which is, if the 0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:58.320 US wins that game, I see no scenario where they 0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:01.360 don't advance to the group stage. If they lose that game, 0:04:01.600 --> 0:04:04.240 they're starting off way behind the eight ball. A draw 0:04:04.320 --> 0:04:07.320 would be okay, but a win and you're in great shape. 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.840 I'm predicting a nothing to nil. I should say United 0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:13.680 States win. If you're listening to this, you know, after 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:16.280 the game is played, you'll see how I do. All right, demons, 0:04:17.040 --> 0:04:19.599 let's get to it. What are we starting with today? 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:22.200 A new weyek, same story, man, The Chiefs were down 0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:26.480 late and came back. This week's victims the LA Chargers, 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:29.760 who scored a touchdown with one six remaining. Yeah. Mams 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:31.680 led a seventy five yard drive capped off with a 0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:34.680 touchdown from Travis Kelce. Yeah. He also increased his win 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:37.240 streak in the months of November and December to twenty 0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:37.839 five games. 0:04:37.920 --> 0:04:38.400 Yeah. 0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:41.279 He's also never lost a road game in his division, 0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:44.359 which is like pretty crazy, it's impossible. Go ahead? 0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:45.040 Yeah? 0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:48.479 Uh, Mahomes officially lock up his standing to be MVP. 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:52.440 Oh well, no, listen, We're gonna talk a lot about 0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:55.640 this game. The idea. I saw a lot of people 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.320 saying that, yes, say, oh, the MVP race is over. 0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:03.679 Let me remind about how the voters in the past 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:10.120 have screwed this up. In twenty twenty, Patrick Mahomes was 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:16.159 the defending Super Bowl champion. Defending Super Bowl MVP did 0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:19.120 not win MVP the year before because Lamar did. So 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:22.000 It's not like voter fatigue. He'd only ever won one. 0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:26.880 They were the defending champs. He played fifteen games, didn't 0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:29.240 play the sixteenth thing because they had everything locked up. 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:34.160 He went fourteen and one, had thirty eight touchdowns and 0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:39.719 six picks, a one toh eight rating, and got one MVP. 0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:45.400 Aaron Rodgers won it. Josh Allen finished second, Mahomes finished third. 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:48.599 So the idea that the voters come the end of 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:53.680 December might not convince themselves well actually it's Tua, or 0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:58.480 well actually it's Jalen, or some other nonsense that could happen. Now. 0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:03.280 MVP voting changed just on Friday. It got announced previously 0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:07.039 what the NFL had done. Fifty voters submit one name, 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.440 unlike the NBA, where you submit a ballot one through 0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:13.480 five the NFL's changing it where they are submitting a 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:17.720 ballot now of one through five for MVP. Obviously he's 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:20.080 the MVP. Obviously he's the best player in the league, 0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:21.880 but that doesn't mean he's gonna win it. Go ahead. 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.599 Speaking of Tua, Yeah, we always get on your head 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:27.400 for like, you know, like your takes that age badly. 0:06:28.000 --> 0:06:30.599 But you were spot on on the last part about 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.360 getting on the Chiefs after the Charges took the lead 0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:36.200 and getting all the money line. So I'm giving that 0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:37.160 credit where it is due. 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:39.960 I told you guys on TV and on the pot. 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:43.800 I told America, don't lay the six. It started at seven, 0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:45.200 got all the way down to four and a half, 0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:49.040 said don't lay that with the Chiefs. Wait until they're trailing, 0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:52.760 and then bet them either minus less than a field 0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:55.120 goal or on the money line. I did both yesterday. 0:06:55.320 --> 0:06:57.760 I made three live Chief Chief bets. 0:06:57.839 --> 0:06:58.239 Yesterday. 0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:01.200 I bet them my is two and a half when 0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:03.960 they were down early, because now you only have to 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.440 win by a field goal. I bet them at halftime 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:10.200 plus one twenty to win, and then I bet them 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:15.080 right after the Chargers scored a touchdown at plus one 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:18.320 seventy when they were down. What would it be down 0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:21.520 four with a minute forty five and two timeouts? So 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:23.880 I bet them three times live in game I want it. 0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.400 So we'll talk big picture in a moment. But about 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:30.080 that game, people killed me because the Chiefs were up 0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:33.560 three after the Keenan Allen fumble and there was about 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:41.040 eight minutes left and they're driving. And for me, obviously 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:43.800 what you're rooting for there is a touchdown, go up 0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:48.120 ten in the game. But my worst case scenario in 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.840 that spot was not a turno. For me, the worst 0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:56.760 case scenario would have been a long drive that ends 0:07:56.840 --> 0:08:00.600 in a field goal, where you go up six, there's 0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:02.200 like three and a half to four and a half 0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:05.080 minutes left, and it's just gonna be the Chargers get 0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:08.880 the ball left. So the Chiefs then fumble and the 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:11.320 Chargers get the ball with seven minutes left, and I tweeted, 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:15.880 obviously I wanted a touchdown, but oddly I prefer a 0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:19.680 turnover with seven minutes then a field goal with four minutes, 0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:24.720 and every the replies to that tweet, Oh my god, people, 0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:27.560 so many memes the crying guy with the mask on, 0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:32.600 tell me how this makes sense. But the logic was 0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:37.480 exactly what played out. With seven minutes left, Mahomes is 0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:40.000 getting the ball back, and if Mahomes is getting the 0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:44.840 ball back, we're gonna win. The only thing I didn't 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:47.080 want was the Chiefs to go up less than a 0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:50.640 full touchdown, take enough time off the clock where the 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:54.400 Chiefs defense, which played okay yesterday and is better this 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:56.480 year than in the year's past, but I still don't 0:08:56.520 --> 0:09:00.360 fully trust that the game could end with her just 0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:03.760 driving the field and with twenty seconds left scoring a 0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:09.280 touchdown to go up one. That's so the reason that 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:14.319 I felt that way is the Chiefs with Mahomes do 0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:18.640 feel inevitable. So it's not just twenty five straight in 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:21.840 November and December, like you said, it's not just twenty 0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:25.880 four and three his career in the division, which is 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.320 absurd when you consider that division has had Philip Rivers 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:33.160 justin Herbert, Derek Carr and of course the clown Show 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:37.559 that the Broncos have had at quarterbacks. But it's not 0:09:37.679 --> 0:09:40.920 like Brady going up against the AFC East forever in 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:42.960 these terrible divisions career. It's supposed to be a good 0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:45.840 division with good quarterbacks. The fourteen and zero on the 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:50.559 road is insane. But the more insane numbers are Mahomes 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:54.040 in his career when trailing by ten points, which he 0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:57.040 never did in this game, win sixty percent of his games. 0:09:57.840 --> 0:10:03.800 Second best is Brady at third. Mahomes now when trailing 0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:09.200 going into the fourth is nine and six sixty percent 0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:12.199 of his games when trailing going into the fourth quarter 0:10:12.280 --> 0:10:15.840 he wins. The next best quarterback I just saw this tweet. 0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:22.040 The next best quarterback on that list is Jay Schroeder, 0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:26.240 who wins thirty five percent of his games. So nobody 0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:29.640 in league history wins thirty six percent of the time 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:33.040 when trailing going into the fourth except for Mahomes, who 0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:38.200 does it sixty percent of the time. If if every 0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:43.200 game the Chiefs trailed going into the fourth quarter with 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:46.960 that win percentage, they'd still be a playoff team. It 0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:52.960 is the most remarkable trait any quarterback has ever had. 0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:58.320 And then you add this to it, Kelsey is the 0:10:58.320 --> 0:10:59.760 best time endeavorly. 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:03.480 So he got like this like three straight games, not 0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:07.679 three straight games, but he's had like a such and 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:10.120 such amount of games with three plus touchdowns. Oh well, 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:11.880 so this year I think he just broke a record 0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:12.360 last night. 0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:14.800 Okay, so he might have so he has two games 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.360 this year with three plus touchdowns. He has a four 0:11:17.400 --> 0:11:19.959 touchdown game against the Raiders, a three touchdown game against 0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:23.000 the Chargers. The record he broke last night was most 0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:25.680 career one hundred yard games by a tight end. The 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.280 record that in that single game parlay that I thought 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:31.440 he was gonna like that him over eighty and a half. Also, 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:35.320 no other tight end in NFL history has ever had 0:11:35.480 --> 0:11:40.400 four consecutive thousand yard seasons. Kelsey is one hundred and 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:46.400 forty five yards away from his seventh consecutive thousand yard seasons. 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:49.679 So it is I mean, he's thirty three years old, 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:52.680 by the way, and he did it yesterday against Derwin James, 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:56.920 the best safety in the league and a guy who 0:11:57.000 --> 0:12:01.720 historically has given Kelsey some problems. His final three catches 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:06.200 were three touchdowns, all touchdowns, and they won them the game. 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:10.640 And so you see these other quarterbacks like two time 0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:14.920 defending MVP Aaron Rodgers, who loses Davante Adams and is 0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:19.000 in shambles all year. The Chiefs trade away Tyreek Hill, 0:12:19.320 --> 0:12:23.640 mccol hardman injured for this game, Juju injured for this game. 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:27.160 Kidarius Tony injured during this game. Who gives it in 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.439 it doesn't matter, and that then brings us to this. 0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:35.040 Kent Swanson tweeted the rest of the AFC westpan a 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:37.680 billion dollars to the throne the Chiefs, and it's over 0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:44.920 by Thanksgiving. So the Raiders added Davante Adams and Chandler 0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:47.319 Jones and traded a first in the second round pick. 0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:53.640 The Chargers added J. C. Jackson and Khalil Mack. The 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:59.520 Broncos added Randy Gregory and Russell Wilson and traded what 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:04.679 was it to first two seconds and three players. Those 0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:09.120 six players got five hundred and eighty million dollars worth 0:13:09.120 --> 0:13:16.320 of contracts. The Chiefs let Tyron Matthew, traded away Tyreek Hill, 0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:21.559 got younger, got extra draft picks, got extra cap room 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:26.240 moving forward, and they are right now to win the division. 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:32.920 And we're not yet to Thanksgiving minus seven thousand. So 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:34.600 you want to win one hundred bucks on the Chiefs 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:36.920 win the AFC West, all you gotta do is lay 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:40.400 seven thousand dollars and you win a nice tidy one 0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:44.200 hundred dollars. They're the biggest favorites of any team to 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.679 win any division in the league. It was supposed to 0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:48.880 be the toughest division ever. And I'm going to add 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:54.680 one other point, thirty two teams left if you rank 0:13:54.800 --> 0:13:59.600 them one through thirty two. As far as remaining strength 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.960 of skeale, so the combined record of all their opponents, 0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:07.559 the hardest schedule remaining is the Giants. They have Philly, 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:12.240 they have Washington, Gopinas, they have Dallas. The teams they're 0:14:12.240 --> 0:14:15.400 playing have a combined winning percentage of like six't eighty. 0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:22.920 The easiest remaining schedule in the NFL the Kansas City Chiefs. 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:27.880 So the benefit to playing nine of your first ten 0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:30.480 games against teams the previous year with a winning record 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:33.160 is if you can get through at eight and two, 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:36.920 it's smooth sale. And the rest of the way they 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:40.520 are at Cincinnati, they are home for Seattle as their 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:44.160 only games left against teams with a winning record. They 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:47.840 have another game I would the Chiefs remain. Other than 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:54.960 those two games, they have Houston, two against Denver the Raiders, 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:57.840 and one other game that I can't remember right now. 0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:02.280 They are running away. They are going to run away 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:04.600 with the one seed and it's not even going to 0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:08.440 be close. And so what's the one game I forgot? 0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:12.120 The Oh, the Rams the Rams this week. Right, the 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:15.320 Rams are one of the three worst teams in football, 0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:18.560 The Texans, who are the worst team in football, the 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:22.240 Broncos two of them against them, who have the worst 0:15:22.240 --> 0:15:24.800 offense in football, and the Raiders in the final week 0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:26.880 of the year, when the Chiefs will probably recipe, and 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:29.560 then a tough game against Cincy and a tough ish 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:33.080 game at home against Seattle Man. So many of my 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:36.720 colleagues look like utter buffoons. Oh, the Chiefs are going 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:38.920 to finish third in the division. Oh, the Chiefs took 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:43.000 a step back of the AFC WES, the toughest division ever. Okay, 0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:47.680 somebody told y'all. Somebody told y'all, and I'm not in 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:49.480 at you know what? We can move on? Do you 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:50.240 want to say anything? 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:52.440 No, I was just gonna say a while ago, imagine 0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:53.880 if it would have been in Kelsey instead of. 0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:56.680 Turry Kill that they traded away. 0:15:56.840 --> 0:15:58.640 Yeah, do you think that would have been a You 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:00.120 think they would have been A I. 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:03.200 Think that Kelsey is more valuable to the Chiefs than 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:11.640 Tyreek jis. Well. Also, I think he is so far 0:16:11.720 --> 0:16:16.000 and away better than every other tight end you could. 0:16:16.800 --> 0:16:21.120 You can't duplicate what he does Hill, Mike he and 0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:23.720 Justin Jefferson the two best receivers in football. And you 0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:27.640 can't duplicate what Tyreek does, but you can piece meal 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:30.920 some of it together. You get a super fast guy 0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:32.520 in Hardman, you get you know what I mean. You 0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:35.520 can get a shifty guy in Kadarius Tony. You can't 0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:39.000 do it with Kelsey. Kelsey, after Mahomes, is the second 0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:42.040 most important chief and third, by the way, is Chris Jones, 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:46.400 who quietly has had the second best season of any 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:50.920 defensive player in football, behind only Michael Parsons. All Right, 0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:53.880 by the way, Paul, question, is Kelsey the greatest tight 0:16:53.960 --> 0:16:57.160 end ever? Sixty six percent say yes, thirty four percent 0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:57.800 are wrong. 0:16:58.000 --> 0:17:02.720 Next, all Right, went into Minnesota and blew out the Vikings. 0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:03.600 Lost me a bet. 0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:05.880 Vegas may have known what they were talking about when 0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:09.080 they made Dallas a road favorite. Many people suspect that 0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:11.600 Many people suspected that the Vikings weren't as good as 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:16.240 their record por trade, including you. Obviously, Minnesota now has 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:19.399 a negative point differential for the season. Was this a 0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:21.879 Minnesota market correction or is it a doubts or is 0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:24.000 Dallas the top five team when. 0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:26.240 Dallas is rolling they do look like a top five team. 0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:28.000 Yeah, I gotta stop betting against them. 0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:32.480 Yeah, that would be wise advice. What do you think 0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:36.200 Dallas at home on Thanksgiving against the Giants? What do 0:17:36.240 --> 0:17:37.040 you think? The line is. 0:17:39.320 --> 0:17:40.280 Plus six and a half? 0:17:41.440 --> 0:17:45.520 Dallas, Me Dallas favorite Dallas, Dallas by seven and a half. 0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:48.439 So you're right, You're right in line, all right. So 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:51.639 the Vikings and the Giants, by the way, are combined 0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:56.359 fifteen and five, and their combined point differential is negative one. 0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:00.360 Those teams are not as good as their record suggest. 0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:04.840 And also, by the way, a little more embarrassing for 0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:07.800 that loss for the old Buffalo Bills last week. Oh 0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:09.800 you blow a seventeen point lead against a team that 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:13.600 then just gets forty to three. That game to Momsey 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:19.560 got taken off TV TV, And do you know how 0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:22.320 bad a Blawn has to be for the networks to 0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:27.359 take the Cowboys off TV in favor of Pittsburgh Cincinnati. 0:18:28.600 --> 0:18:31.200 And they did it not like with four minutes left, 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:34.720 they did it in the third quarter. They're like, this 0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:40.320 thing is over. Listen, Collard looks awesome for Dallas. That defense, 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:45.359 you know, after having a really poor showing against the Packers, 0:18:45.800 --> 0:18:48.000 is back to what it's been doing, and Michael Parsons 0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:51.760 was back to not exclusively but spending most of his 0:18:51.840 --> 0:18:54.400 time rushing the passer like he should have been, which 0:18:54.440 --> 0:19:00.200 is smart, and it was really exceptional job by the Cowboys. 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:02.560 There's no way around it. If I'm doing the top 0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:06.720 five teams, this is just be off the top of 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:11.879 my head, the Chiefs and the Dolphins have to be 0:19:11.960 --> 0:19:16.600 on there. I think I have the Niners up there. 0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:21.440 I know the record doesn't demand it. The Eagles deserve 0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:26.000 to be right in there, and then the Cowboys will 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:33.960 be right alongside the Ravens, the Bills. We'll see the Bengals. 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:37.160 A few more questions there. Yeah, I mean top five, 0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:40.280 top six. I gotta be honest with you. We're gonna 0:19:40.280 --> 0:19:42.520 talk a lot of Cowboys on the TV show today. 0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:46.280 I gotta find something interesting to say about them, because 0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:49.879 as good as they were yesterday, I don't have like 0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:54.000 a super hot or interesting Cowboys take. They kicked the 0:19:54.000 --> 0:19:56.600 crap out of the Vikings, yea, and to me it 0:19:56.800 --> 0:19:59.760 was more an indictment on the Vikings. I'd love to 0:19:59.760 --> 0:20:02.439 give Cowboys a ton of credit, and they do deserve 0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:05.800 it for winning that game. After the terrible Packers loss. 0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:08.879 It could have spiraled for them. It didn't, But to 0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:11.959 me that was the road. That was more about the Vikings. 0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:15.600 I understand the Vikings taking a you know, a exhaling 0:20:15.800 --> 0:20:20.679 after the win against Buffalo, but that was such a 0:20:20.760 --> 0:20:25.280 no show and such an embarrassing performance. It does make 0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:29.520 you wonder the Vikings if they're the two seed in 0:20:29.560 --> 0:20:32.520 the NFC, is they likely are gonna be and they're 0:20:32.560 --> 0:20:35.880 playing a home Round one playoff game against, for instance, 0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:39.760 San Francisco, Are you gonna feel comfortable with the Vikings 0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:43.200 at all? I'm not sorry, I'm just not all right. 0:20:43.200 --> 0:20:47.600 Next all right, Despite a win against Carolina fifty seven, 0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:49.879 the audist, by the way, I always forget to do this, 0:20:50.320 --> 0:20:52.720 says Dallas is not a top five team. 0:20:52.960 --> 0:20:56.560 And by the way, your questions or your comments put 0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:57.879 him in the chat. We'll get to them in the 0:20:57.920 --> 0:20:59.359 sea block. All right, go ahead, all right. 0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:02.119 Despite a win against Carolina on Sunday, Lamar Jackson has 0:21:02.160 --> 0:21:04.959 cooled off considerably after a hot start to the season. 0:21:05.400 --> 0:21:07.200 At the end of September, you said that the Ravens 0:21:07.240 --> 0:21:10.000 made a mistake by not giving him that extension. Now 0:21:10.040 --> 0:21:12.000 it looks like they are paying him the contract. 0:21:12.080 --> 0:21:12.800 Yeah, now it's. 0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:15.120 Looking like they may have been right. Was Lamar's huge 0:21:15.160 --> 0:21:17.080 bet on himself miss misguided? 0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:20.000 No, I don't think so. And it's not because Lamar 0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:26.240 is playing out of this world. It's because we all 0:21:26.320 --> 0:21:31.879 of a sudden, let's list the quarterbacks that we know 0:21:32.240 --> 0:21:37.320 are good. Okay, quarterbacks that we know are good, in 0:21:37.400 --> 0:21:40.280 no particular order. I'll just go through the standings. Okay, 0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:45.800 I'll just go through division by division. AFC's Josh Allen, 0:21:47.000 --> 0:21:50.400 and I'll include to it. I don't. I don't yet 0:21:50.600 --> 0:21:53.199 know Toua is good, but let's include him because he's 0:21:53.240 --> 0:21:57.639 playing so great. Okay, we're it too. In the AFC 0:21:57.680 --> 0:22:03.320 North Joe Burrow, we'll include Deshaun Watson even though he 0:22:03.320 --> 0:22:07.119 hasn't played football in two years. Okay, word four. In 0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:12.520 the AFC South Titans Colts, I'd love to include Trevor 0:22:12.560 --> 0:22:16.119 I can't yet in my heart he's included. Texans. No. 0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:24.520 AFC West Mahomes, Herbert Carr not sure, and we know 0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:34.120 Russell Wilson isn't. Okay. N FC East Jail and dak Yeah, okay, 0:22:35.400 --> 0:22:40.080 Daniel Jones in Heinike obviously not in it. NFC North 0:22:41.600 --> 0:22:47.199 set Kirk Cousins over here, Okay, Aaron Rodgers, don't know 0:22:48.200 --> 0:22:52.600 Justin Field's not enough yet. A dynamic but not enough yet. 0:22:52.840 --> 0:22:57.719 NFC South nobody. I mean, there's Brady, but Brady is 0:22:57.760 --> 0:22:59.560 forty five years old, Like, you know, he's not a 0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:07.119 sustainable player. Inn FC West put Gino over there because 0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:10.919 g know's you know what I mean, Jimmy g No, 0:23:11.640 --> 0:23:15.479 Kyler put him over there. And then Stafford, who's in 0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:21.320 real trouble. There are only eight quarterbacks that we know 0:23:21.520 --> 0:23:25.720 we're good with some question marks around the others. So 0:23:26.080 --> 0:23:28.879 even if you have all of those eight, which I 0:23:28.920 --> 0:23:35.119 wouldn't better than Lamar, Lamar's gonna get paid, you know 0:23:35.160 --> 0:23:38.160 what I mean. Nobody took a like. Even if you've 0:23:38.200 --> 0:23:41.320 been disappointed with how Lamar's played as of late, he 0:23:41.520 --> 0:23:46.680 is by any definition, a top ten quarterback. With Stafford 0:23:46.720 --> 0:23:49.679 going in the wrong direction, Rogers going in the wrong direction, 0:23:50.119 --> 0:23:52.960 Kyler going in the wrong direction, Russell Wilson going in 0:23:53.000 --> 0:23:55.840 the wrong direction, Derek Carr going in the wrong direction, 0:23:56.840 --> 0:24:01.880 Jimmy G's staying in the same direction right, Gino, Jalen 0:24:02.080 --> 0:24:05.960 and Tua are the three guys who prior to this year, 0:24:06.359 --> 0:24:08.720 we wouldn't have said are very good who have now 0:24:08.760 --> 0:24:12.399 elevated themselves to good. But we've had a half dozen 0:24:12.440 --> 0:24:15.879 guys go in the other direction. And there are certain 0:24:15.960 --> 0:24:18.960 guys that I didn't even mention that we now know 0:24:19.640 --> 0:24:22.200 we can just write off. We can just right off 0:24:22.320 --> 0:24:29.000 Mac Jones, we can just write off Zach Wilson. They're done. 0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:32.800 Trevor's is a question mark for some I like him, 0:24:32.840 --> 0:24:35.520 but we call him a question mark. We can right 0:24:35.720 --> 0:24:40.159 off Russell Wilson, he's done. We can right off I 0:24:40.200 --> 0:24:42.240 know people get mad at this. You can write off 0:24:42.359 --> 0:24:45.040
