1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: First to goal at the five. Williams a single back.

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 2: He gets to carry Hesitates, plows forward to the two,

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 2: to the one and in for a Denver touchdown. He

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 2: would not be denied. Javonte Williams from five yards out

5
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 2: his second touchdown of the night, and it's twenty five

6
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 2: to three Denver. That was Javanti Williams scoring his second

7
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 2: touchdown of the night. A low moment in a series

8
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 2: of low moments for the New Orleans Saints on a

9
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 2: Thursday night, to forget in the Superdome thirty three to ten.

10
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: The Broncos end up winning this game. Jake Hans in

11
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 2: at the end and put some lipstick on a pig

12
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: in what was one of the lowest moments in Saint's history.

13
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: And that is a lot of low moments in this history.

14
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: But my god, I don't know if this was the

15
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: worst night to have the Saints Block Party podcast on

16
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: or the perfect night to have have on the Saints

17
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:06,839
Speaker 2: Block Party podcast. That's right, it's my friend Adam west

18
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 2: and Ryan from the Saints Block Party podcast. Of course,

19
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 2: that was Kevin Coogler from Westwood One Fellas. I'm sorry,

20
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 2: I guess is how I'll start with this one, Adam.

21
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 3: No, I want to start this one with some with

22
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 3: just I like throwing facts out there. Right, I don't

23
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 3: have a producer, but I'm just going to throw some

24
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 3: facts out here. For DA's Saints tenure, since he got

25
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 3: hired as head coach, he has beaten four teams with

26
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 3: winning records. Four those teams were the Seattle Seahawks in

27
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, were the Taysum game where he went

28
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 3: super nova, the Indianapolis Coats last year quarterback by garnament Jew,

29
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 3: the Philadelphia Eagles who were fourteen and three, but that

30
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 3: was also garnament Jew was starting that game in twenty

31
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 3: twenty two, and the Bucks last year towards the end

32
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 3: of the season. Those are the only teams that he

33
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 3: has beaten as head coach. Furthermore, Furthermore, this is the

34
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 3: first time that the Saints have lost back to back

35
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 3: games at home by more than twenty points since two

36
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 3: thousand and one.

37
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 2: Wooh, that was my senior year. I don't think I

38
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 2: had season tickets that year. I had season tickets one year,

39
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 2: but I did go to a few games that year.

40
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 2: And yeah, not a great era of Saints football. There

41
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 2: was some buzz that there was some fire, dentistil and

42
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 2: chance there there was a paper bag. At the end

43
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 2: of this game, there was an SOS sign. It was rough.

44
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: But I come back Ryan to the fact that on

45
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 2: a night where they were honoring Drew Brees. That's where

46
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 2: really this all comes back to for me, On a

47
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 2: night where Drew Brees was in the booth with Amazon,

48
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 2: on a night where Sean Payton is in the building,

49
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 2: for this to all happen tonight that night, I just

50
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 2: think that that actually crystallizes everything because ownership is in

51
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 2: the building, Gayo Benson is in the building, and to

52
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 2: have that lower moment while you're celebrating the highest moments

53
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 2: of your franchise history with the best player in franchise

54
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 2: history Drew Brees there, I think it spells the end

55
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 2: of Dennis Allen, maybe even this week, maybe even after

56
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 2: this game. Am I crazy?

57
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: I don't see it? Not this week, But you're right.

58
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: I thought about this game even before the season started,

59
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: that this game, Oh, I mean, it would just it

60
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: would be the perfect time for Dennis Allen to really

61
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: show who he is and for the season to go high.

62
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: Is going so far, to start off so hot, start

63
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: off too and Ohero heit Us on the podcast talking

64
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: about Super Bowls and this, and to end up to

65
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: go forward, you know, lose four games in the row

66
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: how they did in bizarre fashion, you know, losing games

67
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: they kind of should have won or could have won,

68
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: and then just depressing laws to the chiefs where you

69
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: just don't look like it belong in the field. Then

70
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: you get rained out the building by the Tampa Bay

71
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: Bucks and Baker Mayfield and uh. And then to have

72
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: this game against you know, the former head coach, the

73
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: guy who put Dennis Allen on the map and basically

74
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: just looked like a high school team. It it's hard.

75
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: It's hard for Da. I don't see how DA comes

76
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: back from this one, Like, I don't see because.

77
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: It's a defense. It's his defense. That's that's the thing.

78
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 2: So for people that haven't been watching the Saints each

79
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: and every week, and yeah, if you're watching on YouTube,

80
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 2: we appreciate y'all that the ones that came out tonight,

81
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 2: you're the real fans, you're the real believers. It's it's

82
00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 2: probably a lot of the probably a lot of your

83
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: So I appreciate them. They love a tough night and

84
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 2: and Broncos fans, by the way, we will give you your flowers,

85
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 2: your four and three. You've got a well coached team.

86
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 2: This team that the Broncos have reminds me a little

87
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,919
Speaker 2: bit of those late period Sean Payton Saints teams, like

88
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 2: they're not going anywhere, but they're just too damn well

89
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 2: coached to lose more than eight games. They'll probably win

90
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 2: end up winning nine games just with ugly quarterback play.

91
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 2: So we'll get to that. But in reality, just from

92
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 2: a big picture NFL perspective, the story tonight is the

93
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: Saints because this is a team. Yeah, we had you

94
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 2: on after two weeks. I'm sorry, but actually we kind

95
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 2: of had you on at the two perfect moments of

96
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,239
Speaker 2: the year because it really shows how quick things can change.

97
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 2: It was a moment where, you know, I think, right,

98
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 2: I think you said all you needed was Kendre Millard

99
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: to believe that you guys were a super Bowl consider

100
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 2: you had said Miller back tonight, what's up.

101
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: Hey, man? Were just missing like eight other players, eight

102
00:05:59,240 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: other starters.

103
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 2: That's all okay, okay, So there are a ton of

104
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 2: injuries for the Saints, and that explains a lot of

105
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 2: what's happening on offense, but on defense. Going into the game,

106
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 2: they weren't that banged up on defense, they were normal

107
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 2: banged up. And so this is the fourth straight game

108
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 2: where they've given up twenty five points or more. That's

109
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 2: the first time in Saints' history they gave Wasn't that crazy.

110
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: I'm surprised that that's true. But Dennis Allen making that

111
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 2: happen twenty five points four weeks in a row. They

112
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 2: give up two hundred and twenty five yards on the ground,

113
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 2: So the last two weeks they've given up about five

114
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 2: hundred yards rushing. There were moments in this game, and yes,

115
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 2: paulsin Adebo got hurt and Marshawn Lattimore got hurt. By

116
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 2: then the game was already over. At you really feel

117
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 2: for a debo who got an air cast and had

118
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 2: to go to a local hospital. And so that's tough.

119
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: But you saw guys like ducking out of tackles, and

120
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 2: Richard Sherman said it at halftime, it looked like a

121
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 2: team that was didn't want this to be their coach anymore.

122
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 3: Adam like we we've heard, we heard this going back

123
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 3: to last week against the Bucks. Right, you had Sean Tucker,

124
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 3: who no one even in fancy football and who Sean

125
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 3: Tucker was, and he becomes NFL Player of the Week

126
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 3: and copy and paste in the same stuff is happening

127
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 3: this week against the Broncos with Sean Payne in the building,

128
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 3: and I just feel like it's you know you you

129
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 3: mentioned the Marshaw Lottimore getting injured thing, like was he injured?

130
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 3: Like at this point, like I wonder, I wonder if

131
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 3: there are players on the team who just don't feel

132
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 3: like they want to play for DA anymore.

133
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: And I want to drop like a little little little.

134
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 3: Nugget that I just got texted as as we're recording,

135
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 3: I don't I'll say this, I don't know how you

136
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 3: can reasonably assess and evaluate Spencer Rattler behind this line

137
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 3: and with no receivers.

138
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: But it seems like they, like the team may want

139
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: to get a look at Jay Kiner going into that

140
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: next game against the Chargers.

141
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 2: I'll just okay. So Rattler left the game with about

142
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 2: two minutes ago. He was having his side checked out,

143
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 2: He got hit a bunch. He ends up twenty five

144
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 2: or thirty five for one hundred and seventy two yards,

145
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 2: they obviously didn't score enough. You know, they didn't move

146
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 2: the ball great against a good Broncos defense. He didn't

147
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 2: look terrible. I mean, his top receivers are Cedric Wilson,

148
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: Mason Tipton, Bubb Memes, and they're missing two or three

149
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 2: starting offensive linemen against one of the best pass rushers

150
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 2: in the league, and he got thrown around. But actually

151
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 2: when he got a chance to throw the ball and

152
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 2: he wasn't under pressure, he looked pretty good. He made

153
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 2: a few plays with his leg. I mean, if you're

154
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 2: looking at him versus bo Nicks tonight, sorry Broncos fans,

155
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: not like you saw like a bunch of separation between

156
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 2: those two quarterbacks. It was just absolutely everything else that

157
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 2: was going on in this game. But yeah, to it

158
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 2: must have I don't know, man, you guys seem a

159
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: little too calm. I don't know if you're just giving

160
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 2: like NFL daily energy, because if it was Saints, if

161
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 2: it was Saint's block party energy, like we'd be hearing,

162
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 2: you know, Adam getting you know.

163
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's that's that's coming later. But I'll

164
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 3: say this, we're here. How does he have a job

165
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 3: after tonight? He should not leave the building having a job.

166
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: And this is not me. I'm not the one.

167
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 3: And I hear, well, you know you were asking for

168
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 3: da to be fired, and what about like his family

169
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 3: and they're gonna have to switch like their.

170
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: Schools, Like we're fans, They'll be fine.

171
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 3: Like at this point, the thing that Ryan and I

172
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 3: have talked about is that since Dennis Allen has been hired,

173
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 3: there has been a continual, continual teardown of the culture

174
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 3: that Sean.

175
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 1: Payton has has built.

176
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,719
Speaker 3: A couple a couple of days ago, Mickey Loomis goes

177
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 3: on w w L and talks about, you know, you

178
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 3: have to look beyond the wins and losses and look

179
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 3: beyond all this, and Bobby Abert is.

180
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: Like, what are you talking about? Like what?

181
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 3: Like like it felt delusional, And I know a lot

182
00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 3: of the heat's gonna be put on Dennis Allen as

183
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 3: it I really should. But like as you mentioned in

184
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,839
Speaker 3: the preview talking with Jordan Rudrieg, talking with Colleen Wolf,

185
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 3: Mickey Loomis is like the big, big bad behind all

186
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 3: of this because of the power that he wields, because

187
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 3: a lot of the decisions that he's made has led

188
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 3: the Saints to be where they are, So even if

189
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 3: they fired Dennis Allen, as a Saints fan, you just

190
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 3: have to hope in look and hope that either Mickey

191
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 3: Loomis goes into a higher role and that's non football related,

192
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 3: or that he just looks out and hires a head

193
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 3: coach that has the football brains that can put him

194
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 3: in check like the coach he did with Sean Payton

195
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 3: that was across the field, which.

196
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 2: How much higher can he get? He's like the owner,

197
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: he's like essentially like an acting owner. He reminds me

198
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 2: of Pete Carroll in Seattle, who I always thought was

199
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 2: as close to an acting owner after the death of

200
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: their previous owner. I think there's some similarities here. I

201
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 2: think Gail Benson's more involved, but I think Mickey Loomis,

202
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 2: it's fair to say, has about as much power as

203
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: almost any executive or any non really like team president,

204
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 2: I mean in the league, because he's been there so long.

205
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 2: He's been involved in multi you know, he's been involved

206
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 2: with the Pelicans and stuff. And Ryan You pushed back

207
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 2: at me on Twitter when I said, like, the question

208
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: is to me, is Mickey Loomis gonna survival of this?

209
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 2: Because Dennis Allen is his guy, and there's there's a

210
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 2: thought process that like he kept Dennis Allen because that's

211
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: like a coach that's not going to push back on him.

212
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 2: That helps him keep that power. And you were like,

213
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 2: no way as Mickey leaving, which is which is crazy

214
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 2: because I think the rest of the league looks at

215
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 2: this and probably thinks, like, wow, this is a situation

216
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 2: where it's finally maybe over.

217
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, you would think, you know, in a normal franchise,

218
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: but not with the Saints. And look, you're talking about

219
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: Mickey Loomas. This is a guy that's in Gale Benson's will.

220
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: You know, he would be the executive of a will.

221
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: If you know, Dennis Lucia as other president weren't there,

222
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,599
Speaker 1: Like he he's not going anywhere now? Will he be

223
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: the Saints GM, you know, move on to some other role,

224
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: you know, team director of sports engagement, who knows like

225
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: just something besides running the football operations. And the thing

226
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: about you know, having having such a strong footing like

227
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: he has. Where's the accountability? Who holds him accountable? You know?

228
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: I mean we don't know how We know Gail Vinson

229
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: is involved, but we don't know how much years from

230
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,079
Speaker 1: outside the building. Since she's so insulated within New Orleans.

231
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,839
Speaker 1: You know, it's like, who's gonna check Mickey Numis?

232
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 2: Well she Well, she was there today because Drew Brees

233
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 2: had a Hall of Fame luncheon uh at you know

234
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 2: where they officially put him into the Saints Hall of Fame,

235
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:49,239
Speaker 2: and Sean Payton and a whole crew of ex Saints.

236
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 2: Joe Lombardi was there, Michael Cart, Michael all these guys

237
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 2: that used to coach for the Saints. They kind of

238
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 2: crashed the party and Gail. Gail knew that it was there,

239
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 2: he said, So the owner knew that he was going

240
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 2: to come there. And it's on one hand, it's kind

241
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,959
Speaker 2: of awkward if you're an outsider. On the other hand,

242
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 2: it it makes total sense. Those are the people that

243
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 2: were there with Drew Brees, and that's cool. It was

244
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 2: fitting that Sean Payton was there tonight. As bad of

245
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 2: a game as it was, it was supposed to be

246
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 2: this great night in terms of celebrating Drew Brees, but

247
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 2: instead it became a really crazy whiplash of a segment

248
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 2: of this game. So let's go back to the end

249
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 2: of the first half and talk about how that ended.

250
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 2: At the time, it is, I believe sixteen to three,

251
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 2: and will the Saints get the ball back with sixteen

252
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 2: seconds left in the half and they line up and

253
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 2: they start playing some offense and I'm like, okay, actually

254
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 2: like this. You know, teams should do this more. Try

255
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 2: to hit a shot down the field, take a time out,

256
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 2: get a field goal. But it doesn't work. They like

257
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 2: run a screen. Alvin Kamara gets absolutely blasted on a

258
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: potential screen a couple of plays and then they're snapping.

259
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 2: With nine seconds left, they throw another pass. There's four

260
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,199
Speaker 2: seconds left. The half is essentially over. You know, they

261
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 2: got seventy yards to go, and they take a time

262
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 2: out and if you're watching, if you're watching on YouTube,

263
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 2: you could see Spencer Rattler mouthing what are we doing?

264
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 2: And that's what everyone in the building was saying, what

265
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 2: are we doing? Because after that time out, where da

266
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 2: starts looking around as if he wasn't the one that

267
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 2: took the time out, they just kneel on the ball.

268
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 2: So they took a time out for everyone in the

269
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 2: crowd to be like, what the hell to kneel on

270
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 2: the ball, and then they kneel on the ball and

271
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 2: the crowd just starts booing like crazy, and it was

272
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 2: It's a low moment. They're booing like crazy. Cut to

273
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 2: ten minutes later they do the ceremony for Breeze. It

274
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 2: appears to get a really good reaction. Shout out to

275
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 2: the Saints fans that were there. Let's actually listen to

276
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 2: Drew Brees doing his old war chant with the crowd.

277
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 4: Here we go walk where.

278
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: Where? Shot? Where? Not?

279
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 3: Where?

280
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 2: Where?

281
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: Yo?

282
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 2: Shout out to Drew Brees because him getting the crowd

283
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 2: to get up like that in that moment. And I

284
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 2: wasn't there, so I don't know how how loud it

285
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 2: was or whatever. That's one of the best examples of

286
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 2: love that that crowd could ever show. Because there was

287
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 2: not many people in the mood for that, and from

288
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 2: the sound of it from the reporters, there a lot

289
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 2: of people stayed for that ceremony. They yelled, they were like,

290
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: we're out, We're out. It wasn't even that big a blah.

291
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,080
Speaker 2: It was second sixteen to three, but they left. So

292
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 2: that just shows you Ryan how much that that city

293
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 2: loves Drew Brees. That they did that in that in

294
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 2: that scenario, what what a crazy like just whipped.

295
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, just the juxtaposition of like, you know, just those

296
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: memories with Drew Brees, you know, all the winning that happened,

297
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: you know, just a completely different time than we're in now.

298
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: And it's like, here's reality. About one of my guys

299
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: I follow on Twitter, have been followed for a long time.

300
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: He always like after Drew Brees retired and we were

301
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: complaining about Jameis Winston or something on Twitter, and he

302
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: was like, shut up, Like this is how the rest

303
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: of us live, you know what I'm saying. Because he's

304
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: like a Titans fan. It's like that's a good point.

305
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: Like we've been so spoiled, you know, the last fifteen

306
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: years with Drew Brees, you know, and this is this

307
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: is how life is when you don't have a franchise quarterback.

308
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: It's hard to find a great coach. It's just a

309
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: tough life, you know. But I'm hoping that, you know,

310
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: Spencer Raandler becomes something I do see talent there. Uh,

311
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: you know, would he be like a franchise quarterback? Too

312
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: hard to say right now, too early to tell. It's

313
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: too hard to evaluate him right now. But I think

314
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: hopefully when the Saints do get a little more a

315
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: few injured players back, you know, like Eric McCoy, Chaser Hill,

316
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: some of the offensive line, micrus Olavy. Maybe you could

317
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: start to evaaluate Spencer Radler a little better. That's the

318
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: most important thing for this season to me.

319
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, it's a it's a good point. And since

320
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 2: we last did a podcast where shi jaheid is out

321
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 2: for the season, which is just such a killer injury

322
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 2: for the Saints, we found out later in the week

323
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 2: that he was going to undergo surgery. So that's worst

324
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 2: case in era. And this is a receiver group going

325
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 2: into the year that I thought after the top two

326
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 2: was as thin as any in the league. And then

327
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 2: you're missing your top two. A lave should return after

328
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 2: that concussion, but the defense is really what gets you.

329
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 2: And I'm looking up at my screen and we'll have

330
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 2: to check out how this interview went later. But Sean

331
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 2: Payton is on the desk with the Amazon crew in

332
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 2: the Superdome's crazy. And you know, Adam, your buddy Nick

333
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 2: Underhill wrote a great column this week. Wow that uh,

334
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 2: you know that that it's complicated with Sean Payton for

335
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 2: fans of the Saints. That for Saints fans. It's like

336
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 2: you could feel however you want with Sean Payton come

337
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,639
Speaker 2: to town because that man did so much for you,

338
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 2: but he also quit on the team. And I think

339
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 2: from from an outsider, like from people that aren't Saints fans,

340
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 2: they probably kind of forget that that. When Sean Payton retired,

341
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 2: everyone thought he was quote unquote retiring, but it came

342
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 2: out that he was quitting on them, and he was

343
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 2: trying he was coaching the Dolphins. In his mind, he

344
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 2: was coaching the Dolphins and Tom Brady was his quarterback,

345
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 2: and he was quitting on the Saints in the middle

346
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 2: pretty soon after he had negotiated a big payroad raise

347
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: from the Saints like a year before that, so he

348
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 2: quit on them and he was going to the Dolphins.

349
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 2: The NFL did not allow that. The Dolphins lost their

350
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 2: first round draft pick because of it. Tom Brady never

351
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 2: went to this, you know, never went there and it

352
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 2: didn't happen. So there's still some feeling there. But for

353
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 2: him to be laughing up with with Bo Nicks on

354
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 2: the set with Richard Sherman, who was who was man

355
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 2: who is saying Saints fans might be waiting for da

356
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 2: at his car after the game. The man a night.

357
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: It is Ryan.

358
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 3: I think Ryan hit it, and I feel like, Okay,

359
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 3: I know people who are Broncos fans are going to

360
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 3: listen to listen, be like, why.

361
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 2: Aren't you talking more? Now, We're going to get to it.

362
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 2: We're going to get to him. We got time, we

363
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 2: get to Okay.

364
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 3: But I just want to piggyback off of Ryan's point.

365
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 3: The biggest question that the Saints need to like needs

366
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 3: to have answered going into like next season is if

367
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 3: they have somewhat of an answer quarterback in Spencer Rattler

368
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 3: or if they need to draft a quarterback in the draft.

369
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 3: So right now, I know it's fake, but right now

370
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 3: the Saints have the seventh overall pick in the draft.

371
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 3: That looks completely different from an organizational standpoint. If you

372
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 3: feel like you have the guy in the building and

373
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 3: you don't need to draft the quarterback at seven and

374
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 3: draft another position of whatever best player available, like very

375
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 3: if you're drafting that high as opposed to if you

376
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 3: feel like you don't have the guy and you feel

377
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 3: like you have to draft the guy at seven. So

378
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 3: to me, that's the biggest question that they have to ask,

379
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 3: like because I feel like if they can answer if

380
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,400
Speaker 3: he's the guy and he like it's back whatever, whatever

381
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,159
Speaker 3: the guy gets. I'm not saying franchise quarterback, but at

382
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 3: least a good NFL starter for a certain number of years.

383
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: Let's say even let's say modern day Gino.

384
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 3: Right, if you feel like you have that in the building,

385
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 3: no matter how the rest of the season goes, I

386
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,919
Speaker 3: feel like that's a win from an organizational standpoint.

387
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're saying they might want to look at

388
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 2: Hayn who threw a couple of nice passes on that

389
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 2: garbage time to drive and got a touchdown. We'll see.

390
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it's a long way to go. You're

391
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,640
Speaker 2: saying you're already talking about next season, and I get that,

392
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 2: but you're not even close to halfway here. You got

393
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 2: ten more games to play. And the way that defense

394
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 2: look like they get up on Dennis Allen tonight, it

395
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 2: just it makes you wonder about decisions. You mentioned Latimore

396
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 2: and missed a lot of camp with that hamstring, and

397
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 2: then he was out late in this game. There was

398
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 2: a moment and our friend Jordan Rodrigue pointed out to me,

399
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 2: like on that Broncos touchdown drive in the second half

400
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 2: where guys aren't getting off their blocks, but guys aren't

401
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 2: even like sticking their arms out to make the tackles.

402
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 2: There there was a play and Damario Davis also left

403
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 2: this game with an injury, and he's the ultimate pro.

404
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 2: He he was you know, not he was like in

405
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 2: the right gap, but did not give great effort on

406
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 2: a potential tackle attempt on that drive either, And maybe

407
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 2: he's fighting through an injury. But it's been tough to

408
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 2: watch the last couple of weeks, and it just when

409
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 2: it rains at poor is like honey Badger has an

410
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 2: interception on one of bo Nick's worst throws, go right

411
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 2: in his bread basket at the end of the first half,

412
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: but he could have maybe had a long return. Maybe

413
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 2: he was looking up to see it and he just

414
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 2: drops the thing and that's not not trying. But that's

415
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 2: just that's as bad. And I don't know where get

416
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 2: coat goes from here, because they weren't getting any pressure

417
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 2: on bow next tonight not and looked at the next

418
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 2: ten stats, bo Nicks went oh for four under pressure,

419
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 2: which is like, man, that's rough. He didn't hit one

420
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,959
Speaker 2: pass under pressure. Then I was like they only had

421
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 2: four passes under pressure? What's up with that? Ryan? Like

422
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 2: your your passer man.

423
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: Pass presus bad. I don't want to hear anything about

424
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 1: pressures because I've been seeing the stats that Saints are

425
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 1: you know, at a certain level of pressures. No, they

426
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: are not good at affecting the quarterback. Quarterbacks have a

427
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,640
Speaker 1: lot of time to throw the ball. Quarterbacks can run

428
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: the ball. Anybody can run the ball against the Saints defense.

429
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 1: It's been bad for a couple of years now. Sean Tucker.

430
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,360
Speaker 1: Sean Tucker ran for almost two hundred yards, Like, what's

431
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: what is going on? So well?

432
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, Javonte Williams tonight goes fourteen for eighty eight, two touchdowns.

433
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 2: On my daughter Ellis's fantasy bench, my sun walker was

434
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 2: telling her before the game, put Javonte Williams in. He

435
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 2: had the scouting report on. He said the same defense

436
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 2: isn't good, but didn't listen.

437
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 3: Bonis went for almost like what ninety or he had

438
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 3: like eighty three the last time.

439
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 2: I checked seventy five yards he ended up with along

440
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 2: a thirty two. Although that's a continuation of a trend.

441
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna take a quick break. Let's talk

442
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:34,400
Speaker 2: some Broncos on the other side, Now, let's give let's

443
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 2: give the Broncos from Flowers those three a little bit.

444
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 2: They're four and three, they are They play the Panthers next,

445
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 2: then they have Ravens and Chiefs in a row. But

446
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 2: after that they have the Raiders in the Browns. So

447
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 2: those are three of the worst teams in the league

448
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 2: that are coming up in your next five games. You're

449
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 2: four and three. I think I think the way this

450
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 2: Broncos team is now, worst case, you're going two and

451
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 2: three in those games, and right now you're kind of

452
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 2: showing me you're one of those teams that can beat

453
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 2: the bad teams. You might lose. You probably will lose

454
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 2: most to the average teams, and you'll lose to the

455
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,119
Speaker 2: good teams. Like last week, Chargers a real quarterback, a

456
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 2: real defense, they didn't really stand up. Maybe they'll win

457
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 2: some of those games, but you haven't played the Raiders

458
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 2: and the Bronco and the Browns and the Panthers. They're

459
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 2: pretty good situationally, they're good on special teams. Like this

460
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 2: is the type of stuff that you guys talked about

461
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 2: that Sean Payton could do, like real coaching, and like

462
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 2: they're getting a running game going. Javonte Williams, not last week,

463
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 2: but a couple of games before that, Like the two

464
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 2: games before that was running the ball pretty well. They're

465
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 2: getting pretty good offensive line play. Bo Nicks actually has

466
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 2: the fourth most value of any quarterback in terms of

467
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 2: rushing in the NFL. Adam's making a face at me.

468
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 2: I mean he's dead lasted EPA for drop back like

469
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 2: any quarterback. Yes, okay, he's giving you some rushing value.

470
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 2: He's not throwing the ball too well. I'm just saying

471
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 2: an offense that doesn't make too many mistakes and a

472
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 2: defense that travels that that plays bigger than the some

473
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,679
Speaker 2: of their parts that that rushes the pass are real well, like, man,

474
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 2: they're got they're gonna hit that over. For whatever their

475
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 2: win total was, it was like five and a half,

476
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 2: they're gonna get to eight or this year.

477
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: Listen.

478
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 3: I think people, and I feel like as a football fan,

479
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 3: as I've gotten older, you really start to realize how

480
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 3: important coaching is, like especially in football, especially in the NFL.

481
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 3: And I don't think like the Broncos doesn't strike me

482
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 3: as a team that is going to go far, but

483
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,679
Speaker 3: it has the parts where they should at least maybe

484
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 3: be frisky and be a wildcard team and then once

485
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 3: you get into the dance, like who knows what happens?

486
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 3: Like I was a gas by some of the passes

487
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 3: that bo Nix was throwing, like especially if you go

488
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 3: back to their first drive and they're like on that

489
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 3: play there was two wide open Denver players. It was,

490
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 3: but so like what is their ceiling? Like you said

491
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 3: a to nine wins, But at least as a Broncos fan,

492
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 3: you know what Sean Payton, You're going to get a

493
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 3: well coached team and a psychopath. And I'm in this

494
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,399
Speaker 3: and I mean this a determined endearment that looks every

495
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,719
Speaker 3: It looks into every way, an advantage of how I

496
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 3: can help my team win. Special teams, defense, offense, Who

497
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 3: are the who are the reps that are calling this game?

498
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 3: What are their tendencies and how they call the game,

499
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 3: just really minute things that comes with being a great

500
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 3: head coach. And I feel like as a Broncos fan,

501
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 3: you can't ask for more. And I feel and I

502
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 3: also feel like Broncos fans there may be like Broncos

503
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 3: fans who are not big fans of Sean Payne as

504
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 3: a head coach, which that seems to be like very prevalent.

505
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 3: But there aren't many people that approach the game and

506
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 3: approach game day like he does.

507
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 2: Right Ryan, You you guys were kind of leading the

508
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 2: brigade about DA last year. Not too happy with them.

509
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 2: Then they start out to and no people asking for

510
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 2: apologies from y'all. Is there anything you'd like to say?

511
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 1: Now? I have no apologies. Look, we we went into

512
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: this season for the Saints like look, show me, show

513
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: me talk. All the talk this off season about oh,

514
00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,439
Speaker 1: we're going to execute better, you know is you know,

515
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: we got a new scheme coming in, we got Clink

516
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 1: Kobie coming in, We're gonna make it easy on Derek call,

517
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna run the ball, blah blah blah blah blah,

518
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: show me. And first two weeks they did show us.

519
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 1: They were like okay, I'm just like, okay, that's interesting.

520
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: But it was a week the week proposition, and they

521
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: continued to show us they are who we thought they were,

522
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And RP didn't scream and

523
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 1: this just is what it is.

524
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and shot shot Payton and they're not letting them

525
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 2: off the hook. I mean they are not. It's crazy though,

526
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 2: I know the NFL is like a week to week

527
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 2: league and everything. Uh and yeah, we're getting some comments

528
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 2: from the YouTubers. I think some of your listeners are

529
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 2: watching here. Ryan and Adam would like to apologize to

530
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 2: absolutely no one. And yeah, Sean Payton's not apologizing for

531
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 2: this one either. I bet this felt so.

532
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, he loved it, right, he love Heed.

533
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: I'll say he did not want to let that Lance touchdown.

534
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 1: He didn't know it.

535
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,120
Speaker 3: You know, he's sick about it. He's sick that they

536
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 3: scored a touchdown in this game. I can guarantee you

537
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 3: he is.

538
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 2: Although let's uh, let's actually listen to the Broncos last touchdown.

539
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 2: We're going to listen to the Saints radio network call

540
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 2: of it. This is late in the game. Poor Spencer

541
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 2: Ratler just just getting hit.

542
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 4: Second of Jenna's Rattler is in trouble again. Is that

543
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 4: ball comes up in the air. That's going to be

544
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 4: an interception and that is going to be a touchdown

545
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 4: going the other way for for Cody Barton. As Rattler

546
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 4: was hit, ball popped up of the air Like U,

547
00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 4: these are cotton.

548
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 2: Candy for Cody Marden.

549
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 4: Just floating in the air and he took it the

550
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 4: other direction.

551
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 2: That is sad my cost there on ww oh yeah,

552
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 2: that score. It was thirty three to three at that moment,

553
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 2: and you got to give this Broncos defense some credit.

554
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 2: Vance Joseph. One of the best things Sean Payton did

555
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 2: when he took that job. Vance Joseph back in the

556
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 2: building after he was a head coach doing a fantastic job,

557
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 2: just blitzing and blitzing and blitzing, and this pass rush.

558
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: They really got something going now. They brought Baron Browning

559
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 2: back tonight, was probably their best pure pass rusher from

560
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 2: an injury, so he played for the first time all year.

561
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 2: Nick Bonito, who's like a pass rush specialist, has a

562
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 2: sack now in five straight games, which is wild. Zach

563
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: Allen is playing at an all pro level. Patrick Certan,

564
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 2: who is out for this game, is playing at an

565
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 2: all pro level. Riley Moss is going to be inspiring

566
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 2: White kids across the country all start playing cornerback because

567
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 2: they're out there hitting. That was what really struck me tonight.

568
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: You gotta admit, like Saints, we're catching the ball and man,

569
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 2: they were just on them and they were hitting. So

570
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 2: this is a this is a defense with an attitude.

571
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: Man. I like watching Moss I really I liked him

572
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: coming out and I think overall man Like I was

573
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 1: telling the buddy of mine who's a Verbroccos fan, he

574
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: was really down on Sean Payton. One thing Sean Payte

575
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: is going to do is he is going to try

576
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: to get the best out of his guys. And you know,

577
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 1: even when you look at the defensive defensive coordinator last

578
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: year after they allowed like seventy points, everybody wanted him

579
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 1: running out the building. Sean was gonna stick with them.

580
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 1: And Sean loved like he looked at who he's had

581
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: in the past, like Greg Williams, those guys. He loves

582
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 1: the blitz. He loves to put pressure on the quarterback

583
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 1: but any means necessary. So he's gonna have his defensive

584
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: coordinator bring that heat. And it seems like today in

585
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: today's NFL, the blitz is working like it's the days

586
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: of where you could just beat the blitz some reason,

587
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 1: For some reason, I'm trying to figure it out. Quarterbacks

588
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: just not beating the blitz. Yeah. Absolutely.

589
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 2: Some people in the comments getting on us for picking

590
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 2: on Knicks, and I'm just thinking, I'm looking at these

591
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 2: Knicks stats. It was actually over five under pressure, so

592
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 2: there's one more pressure.

593
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,480
Speaker 1: Did they watch the game? Did they wash? Now?

594
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 2: I know because that interception that he should have thrown

595
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 2: a Matthew some of the throws early. Here's the telling

596
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 2: stat from Knicks tonight. And they've really done a good

597
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,959
Speaker 2: job coaching around him. It's tricky. I actually think this

598
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 2: team would be better with Jared Stidham, I really do

599
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 2: they are. When he held the ball over two and

600
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 2: a half seconds tonight, so those are more like in

601
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 2: rhythm throws or trying to get to the second read.

602
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 2: And Kirk Kirbstreet was hammering this point on the broadcast,

603
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 2: like he cannot get past his first read. He was

604
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 2: ten for nineteen for five yards per attempt, negative twenty

605
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 2: percent completion percentage over expected. And that's what you see

606
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 2: all year long in terms of completion. Like he's just

607
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 2: for a guy that needs to win. You think of

608
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 2: a guy that's not crazy arm talent that you got

609
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 2: to win from the pocket. But he doesn't stay in

610
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 2: the pocket, and he's not really good at like throwing

611
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 2: on the move, Like he doesn't have the arm strength

612
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 2: for that, so it's a bad combination. He's great at scrambling,

613
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 2: He's literally been one of the best scrambling quarterbacks in

614
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 2: the league this year. But other than hitting those little

615
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 2: short seven yarders on your first read and scrambling, he's

616
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 2: not hitting anything else, and that's it's hard to run.

617
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 2: Eric Wilkinson says, it's just ridiculous. It's like the kid

618
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 2: is the punching bag of every talking head. He's literally

619
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 2: playing better than Elway at the same point of his career.

620
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 3: Talking about Nick that sounds like Mickey Liman is talking

621
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 3: about Da being like Chuck Nole, Like what we.

622
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 2: To oh wait when he was reading off the records,

623
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 2: because I would to update that. Actually, Dennis Allen is

624
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 2: now twenty six fifty one, yes thinking for his career

625
00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 2: eighteen and twenty three with the Saints, which isn't as.

626
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 3: Bad, but so that means if you were to double

627
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 3: his wins, he would be one game above hive hundred

628
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 3: in his NFL coaching career. If Dennis Allen's name was

629
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 3: Dennis Jackson, would he still have a job?

630
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: No, absolutely the way.

631
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 2: If Dennis Allen won ten straight to finish the season

632
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 2: and then three playoff games. That's thirteen wins. So if

633
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 2: they won the Super Bowl and then they started out

634
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 2: next year thirteen to zero, then he would be above

635
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 2: fight won the Super Bowl without a loss. This is dark.

636
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: Here's the crazy thing when you're talking about bo Nicks.

637
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying this like of a certainty, but

638
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 3: I believe if you were to like switch Spencer Rattler

639
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 3: in bow Knicks and he was the Denver quarterback, I

640
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 3: think football fans and football media would think about the

641
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 3: Broncos a little differently, just a little bit, if he

642
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 3: was a quarterback rather than Bonex.

643
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. He Nick hasn't shown enough consistently as

644
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 2: a passer, so Broncos fans want to give him a

645
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,320
Speaker 2: ton of credit for winning. Like y'all been down that

646
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:15,239
Speaker 2: road before. It was a man named Tim Tebow that

647
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 2: we had this argument about who gets the credit for

648
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 2: the wins, the quarterback or the team because people were

649
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 2: telling us that you had just some magic sauce. All right,

650
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 2: I don't want to hold you any longer. You guys

651
