Speaker 1: NFL Game Debut is a production of the NFL in
Speaker 1: partnership with I Heart Radio. Welcome to Arizona, everybody, all
Speaker 1: come to Game Debut. This is the fun. This is
Speaker 1: the finale. Uh. I know I'm gonna keep on seeing
Speaker 1: you guys, but I'm gonna miss you on this certain show.
Speaker 1: How are you feeling? Like any finale, We're gonna have
Speaker 1: to leave like a very personal cliffhanger at the very end,
Speaker 1: So stay tuned. I don't know what that means. Maybe
Speaker 1: Greg's got something playing that we don't know about. Okay, guys,
Speaker 1: let's get to the season standings. Alright, the regular season.
Speaker 1: It simply does not matter. Okay, it all comes down
Speaker 1: and there's some major there's some major things on the
Speaker 1: line here. Cynthia and Greg aren't tied. I don't know
Speaker 1: what you guys are picking later on in the show,
Speaker 1: but this is I don't either Man versus model really
Speaker 1: is the whole time? This is the model? Uh. Okay,
Speaker 1: you know we're not gonna give you guys a trophy.
Speaker 1: It doesn't exist, but um, I want you to fight
Speaker 1: for it. Anyways, Kid's time to go to uh in
Speaker 1: it to when it presented by into it, Turbo Tax,
Speaker 1: We've got a lot of time to kill. Okay, so
Speaker 1: you're gonna wait until the end of the show for
Speaker 1: us to give out our Super Bowl picks. But I
Speaker 1: want to start with offensive player to watch for Kansas City, Greg,
Speaker 1: I'll start with you, Okay. I'm gonna start with Isaiah Pacheco.
Speaker 1: I love the way this kid has been running all year,
Speaker 1: and I love the matchup in this game against this
Speaker 1: Eagles run defense. It's what they've struggled with all year.
Speaker 1: The Chiefs are built for this. I don't know if
Speaker 1: Andy Reid is built for this. Eagles fans know that
Speaker 1: he didn't always run the ball when they wanted him
Speaker 1: to run the ball back when he was an Eagles coach.
Speaker 1: But he's built an offensive line that's great at it.
Speaker 1: I think up the middle. Yes, they had to bring
Speaker 1: in Dominican Sue and Lynn Vaal Joseph. Those guys were
Speaker 1: on the street for a reason. I think Pacheco is
Speaker 1: the future. He's the now. He's gonna break tackles and
Speaker 1: especially on the interior runs. I think Andy Reid will
Speaker 1: be a little more patient in this game and stick
Speaker 1: with the running game, and Pacheco has gotta do great,
Speaker 1: do you like? I mean, we're kind of thinking along
Speaker 1: the same lines here because Jerick McKinnon to me is
Speaker 1: someone to watch. Why because when he doesn't have the
Speaker 1: ball in his hands, it's almost more important than what
Speaker 1: happens when the ball is in his hands. Meeting picking
Speaker 1: up those blitz is handling pressure, giving Patrick Mahomes just
Speaker 1: one half of a second longer to figure out where
Speaker 1: to target the football. So for me, in this matchup,
Speaker 1: Jerick McKinnon's used and maybe even a little like Clyde Edwards,
Speaker 1: a layer who we saw activated, that running back situation
Speaker 1: is going to absolutely be key because we know that
Speaker 1: the Eagles can bring the heat, so you have to
Speaker 1: just give a little bit the titch longer for the
Speaker 1: play to develop. You know, I really thought about this
Speaker 1: question offensive player to watch? You know, maybe somebody would
Speaker 1: would She was like an X factor, somebody that we're
Speaker 1: not really used to hearing about. I say, nay, give
Speaker 1: me Travis Kelsey and he is the player to watch
Speaker 1: because we won't be able to keep our eyes off
Speaker 1: of him. This has just been such a fun storyline
Speaker 1: all week long. I got to talk to Donna Kelsey
Speaker 1: last night at the Honors. She's got both of her
Speaker 1: boys there. I mean, imagine playing your brother in the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. If you know, you know the Borough head
Speaker 1: stuff really got to this team. Imagine your brother just
Speaker 1: on the other side, on the other sideline, just egging
Speaker 1: you on. There is so much on the line for
Speaker 1: him today. He's been so much fun to watch this season.
Speaker 1: He just continues to get better and more incredible. I
Speaker 1: have him scoring the first touch, dude, love him kind
Speaker 1: of going off and when said off the bat, I
Speaker 1: thought you might go Rafael Kelsey. Oh, Rafael Kelsey. Yes,
Speaker 1: a lot of people have been talking about him this week.
Speaker 1: We'll get to Rafael in a little bit, but I
Speaker 1: want to talk about the other side of the ball,
Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball for the Chiefs. Greg,
Speaker 1: who do you like? Okay, I'm gonna get weird here,
Speaker 1: you know, Chris Joe. We're gonna get a lot of
Speaker 1: attention in the secondary. Everyone one knows. How about Mike Danna.
Speaker 1: It's all don't expect on Super Bowl Sunday. And I
Speaker 1: love getting interior pressure because you're gonna double team Chris Jones.
Speaker 1: I think the Eagles offensive line really good at the
Speaker 1: tackle position good and on the inside, but not as good.
Speaker 1: And Danna has been getting after He's gonna have those
Speaker 1: one on one matchups. I think he can beat Sayamalu
Speaker 1: and I think Jalen Hurts can leave the pocket a
Speaker 1: little early when he gets the interior pressure. We saw
Speaker 1: that in the NFC Championship game. And Dana is one
Speaker 1: of those guys kind of like an a Sean Robinson
Speaker 1: a year ago that makes a big impact in the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl with that interior pressure. I love that, you know,
Speaker 1: friends and backs of defenses worked together. And we've been
Speaker 1: talking about the rookie Isaiah Pachecko on one side, but
Speaker 1: Trent McDuffie was their first round pick. They put him
Speaker 1: in press coverage against oh, you know, Jamar Chase, and
Speaker 1: he handled Jamaar Chase. That press coverage is a big
Speaker 1: deal in this matchup. When you look at a. J.
Speaker 1: Brown is good at well, he's pretty good against press.
Speaker 1: So I'm looking to see can the rookie, the guy
Speaker 1: they have all these expectations were their first round pick.
Speaker 1: Can he step up when the lights of the bride is,
Speaker 1: when everything's really on the line, And I think he can.
Speaker 1: With a name like McDuffie. Who can't you absolutely can
Speaker 1: Greg You already kind of mentioned my guy. He is
Speaker 1: going to continue to get a lot of attention, and
Speaker 1: that is Chris Jones. Uh talking about somebody who really
Speaker 1: took this personally. Last week the Borrowhead stuff, he went
Speaker 1: above and beyond. That was so fun to watch him
Speaker 1: use that chip on his shoulder. And this is what
Speaker 1: he said about the Eagles going up against the best
Speaker 1: offensive line. I wouldn't have it any other way. He
Speaker 1: is ready to feast this guy. You know, I can't
Speaker 1: wait to see. There's all these posters around here and
Speaker 1: Chris Jones is decidedly not on as many posters, so
Speaker 1: maybe that will be the motivation. Like the Borrowhead love stridge,
Speaker 1: you know what it is. He's always been an Arizon,
Speaker 1: you know, as the second best guy, but now he's
Speaker 1: the best. Um, guys, I gotta say, I really miss Patrick.
Speaker 1: I really miss Patrick. Let's bring him back in to
Speaker 1: the show from l A. Patrick. Who is your X
Speaker 1: factor on Sunday? Who are you going? Man? Well, I'm
Speaker 1: looking down at the bottom of that board, and you
Speaker 1: guys have convinced me throughout the entire season. I've expressed
Speaker 1: some some disbelief in regards some motivation. But Kadarius Tony
Speaker 1: is at the bottom of that and he I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna see that, and he's gonna say game debut,
Speaker 1: you don't respect me, You don't think you haven't seen
Speaker 1: the way that I can play and get yards after
Speaker 1: the catch. And but honestly, though, this Eagles defensive line,
Speaker 1: this Eagle's front, more pressure, is more sacks than anybody
Speaker 1: in the NFL. They have fifteen more sacks than the
Speaker 1: next closest team. Patrick Mahomes still kind of playing on
Speaker 1: one leg. He's gonna need to get the ball out early.
Speaker 1: They're gonna need to get some yards after the catch
Speaker 1: early and often, and I think Kadarius Tony is gonna
Speaker 1: be the best way to do that. And we don't
Speaker 1: know how much he's gonna play, So that makes them
Speaker 1: even more of an X factor to me. It's time
Speaker 1: for quick kicks. But we have a new guest, Patrick,
Speaker 1: see you later incoming, Yarden. That seemed harsh, but I'm
Speaker 1: so excited to have you here, Mr Incredible. No, yeah,
Speaker 1: just take it. I'm just a Sunshine State kid. Wait
Speaker 1: Arizona's nine A Sunshine state, but it yeah, it is
Speaker 1: what it is. Uh. Ca'm so happy to have you
Speaker 1: on game debut. I saw you at NFL Honors. You
Speaker 1: had an entire choir behind you. I don't know, but
Speaker 1: I'm a hiring for my birthday, like hit all my
Speaker 1: little residents. I'm like, yeah, So anyways, anyways, I'm like,
Speaker 1: they're gonna kill it. I love it. So you're here
Speaker 1: with NFL Rivals. Can you tell us about what that is.
Speaker 1: NFL Rivals is a that's going to be launching in
Speaker 1: the next few months. You know some I'm gonna say summer.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's it's around that springtime. But it's this idea
Speaker 1: that you can be your own coach, your own GM type.
Speaker 1: You gotta pick your own players, you rip you gotta
Speaker 1: rip out your own guys, make your team nine verses
Speaker 1: nine they go hit there, not even hit the gridiron.
Speaker 1: Because this is real stuff. This is like nineties rules,
Speaker 1: like people are able to like go around, like its
Speaker 1: NFL Blitz two point oh. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like we're bringing it back to where football is fun.
Speaker 1: You know, when you see a quarterback be decimated and
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta really have fun. With it, because
Speaker 1: now you gotta put it like you know, today's game,
Speaker 1: you put a pillow down. You were in a big
Speaker 1: time story, you know, before you hit the quarterbacks these days,
Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna be an app about Cynthia
Speaker 1: and I because it's gotten pretty rough this season. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you can pick that up. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but you can find an NFL NFL dot rivals dot
Speaker 1: com and we could work out some some issues after that.
Speaker 1: You know, there's always troubleshooting. Okay, I love it all right, Well,
Speaker 1: Cynthia got has got our glasses on, which means it's
Speaker 1: time to really dive deep into the analytical the more
Speaker 1: you know, stat specific questions here in business. Here, let's
Speaker 1: talk about the coin toss folks show. Let's get into cam.
Speaker 1: When you're out there calling it for the Saints. Are
Speaker 1: you a heads or tails guy? What do you? What
Speaker 1: do you usually go with? You know what? I normally
Speaker 1: don't go, No, no, I go. I go out there. Um,
Speaker 1: I've done you know, I did a heads of the
Speaker 1: tails never fails, and then like failed me and I
Speaker 1: was like, hey, maybe I shouldn't do this anymore tomorrow.
Speaker 1: I feel like it would be like low key a
Speaker 1: lot of pressure. It's not. But at the same time,
Speaker 1: I'm not like like once you lose, like you no
Speaker 1: longer have the mojo. Like it was like I watched
Speaker 1: all my you know, I've been a captain for like
Speaker 1: six or seven or eighty. I'm not even sure I'm
Speaker 1: here for a long time, right, I've seen a lot
Speaker 1: of guys with the cone tossed. I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's gonna be me. They're like, cay, I'm taking I
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, ripping tails, you lost. I shouldn't do
Speaker 1: this an like model specific wise, like do you actually
Speaker 1: do this? It is? It is always fifty percent, no
Speaker 1: matter how many times you flip a coin, it is
Speaker 1: always just like us, we're fifty percent. Yeah, No, I'm
Speaker 1: not fun. I beg to defer because I only did
Speaker 1: one toss and it was zero ps chance. That's how
Speaker 1: we agree here, though, Cynthia. I always think a little
Speaker 1: differently about someone if they're like a head's person, like
Speaker 1: you just can't totally you can't trust them trying to
Speaker 1: get aheads catching straights. He's not even here. A little
Speaker 1: basic to me, I like that one. Yeah, if you
Speaker 1: drop a basic that's not where you want to because
Speaker 1: it's really the butt. You're just going with the butt.
Speaker 1: That's that's Cynthia and I. We're going with them. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna leave that they're Okay. What do we think about
Speaker 1: the first guy to score? Will his jersey number be
Speaker 1: higher than eleven and a half? Absolutely? Okay. I mean
Speaker 1: there's something specific you're thinking about. I get that it's
Speaker 1: probably gonna be in the eighties. If I'm not, you know,
Speaker 1: there's there's there's two guys, but I'm thinking it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a t el Okay. I looked at the t E.
Speaker 1: I also looked at Miles Sanders, who's a twenty six.
Speaker 1: I thought that was an interesting one as well. And
Speaker 1: I also think like it's more fun and Patrick Mahomes
Speaker 1: could be a that's very fun. That one's over right.
Speaker 1: When I said my home, my homes is over that number,
Speaker 1: you got the starting running back for the Eagles over
Speaker 1: that number. And I'm just really basic. I don't have
Speaker 1: a model. There's so many numbers over eleven. There's not
Speaker 1: that many numbers. There is there is. I mean, I
Speaker 1: see you guys sticking with the offense here, but let's
Speaker 1: not get it twisted. The defense is gonna be the
Speaker 1: one that defines his game. So I'm just going to
Speaker 1: high because there's a lot of defenders out there. You
Speaker 1: talk about Hasan Redding, what he impacted the Niners game.
Speaker 1: You talk about how you got Chris Jones on the side.
Speaker 1: If we're just thinking just over under eleven. I like
Speaker 1: the defense, and the defense always goes and sets a tone. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, it's like intelligent analysis for this. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: got that on this show. How about going for two
Speaker 1: on Sunday? Anybody gonna roll the dice on this one.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a roll of the dice. I'm saying, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, Sirianni. I think one of the reasons the
Speaker 1: Eagles are in this game is that they go for two,
Speaker 1: that they're aggressive, that they're one of the best two
Speaker 1: point teams of all time, like they are short yardage masters.
Speaker 1: I think that's why they're here. I love that the
Speaker 1: analytics person is the only one that said no. Why
Speaker 1: why are you saying no to fun and chaos? It's
Speaker 1: not about fun and chaos. I think I'll go for
Speaker 1: it on fourth down to you know, keep the extending
Speaker 1: to drive but I don't know if they'll necessarily that
Speaker 1: that might not be the strategy at the goal line.
Speaker 1: Why are you saying just the analytics, I'm I'm started
Speaker 1: with you. Thank you. Yeah, like I'm I'm a rock
Speaker 1: gear way. But when are we saying two point being
Speaker 1: like converted or at some point just successful? Yeah? You know,
Speaker 1: but when you're on the defense and let's say it's
Speaker 1: not at the end of the game, you don't know
Speaker 1: that they're going for two and then they go for
Speaker 1: it instead of just kicking the point, aren't you like
Speaker 1: a little annoyed? That's what the defensive players don't want,
Speaker 1: right and for the kick or talk about I'm saying,
Speaker 1: do you want to get back on the field and
Speaker 1: possibly give up that too? I don't want to give
Speaker 1: up the touchdown, So either way, I'm annoyed. I just
Speaker 1: feel like it's gonna be so close. You're gonna have
Speaker 1: to do weird stuff like this. You're gonna have to
Speaker 1: really think outside the box. Uh okay, super Bowl Classic people.
Speaker 1: The color of the gatorade? What color is it going
Speaker 1: to be? I think I said yellow yellows like Arizona
Speaker 1: powdered gatorade. Get the powdered gatorade. What are you talk about?
Speaker 1: Absolutely that you talk about the can, but don't can
Speaker 1: talk about it. We can talk about the bottle, not
Speaker 1: the can is cleaner anyway. You can talk about the bottle,
Speaker 1: the powder like the stuff that you've you've been drinking
Speaker 1: since you were like seven at ymc A games. Please
Speaker 1: spare me, Greg, You're you're going okay once again? Yellow
Speaker 1: go yellow? Okay, once again. It's tough out here for
Speaker 1: the color blind people. I thought yellow is green, isn't
Speaker 1: it just like the same. They're together, they're listened together,
Speaker 1: listening that their groups together like the yellow green? Then
Speaker 1: why are you going blue? Because since of the winning
Speaker 1: gatorade colors have been blue. Oh and blue is the
Speaker 1: most popular gatorade color by all reasons. See, this is
Speaker 1: why we that's why, that's why we think. Um, okay, Cam,
Speaker 1: you're gonna like this. I'm literally gonna start tracking like
Speaker 1: our colors during games like Cynthia, can we have yellow?
Speaker 1: We all made Super Bowl predictions back in Week one,
Speaker 1: which we're you know, we're just trying our best. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're just going for it. Uh, Greg got his right.
Speaker 1: He won't stop talking about it, but Patrick back in
Speaker 1: l A had one. I think that you will appreciate.
Speaker 1: It's for all the tape. I'm gonna insert randomness into this,
Speaker 1: into this question, because that's what the ball is, not round.
Speaker 1: It doesn't necessarily always go where we think. Bengals almost
Speaker 1: one this super ball. They did, and we nobody really
Speaker 1: saw that coming. I will take the Buffalo Bills. It wow.
Speaker 1: And for the first year head coaching opportunity for Dennis
Speaker 1: Allen with this team, of course he had another opportunity
Speaker 1: didn't go so well. But they believe and I had
Speaker 1: some questions when they made the trade of c J
Speaker 1: G JU, but they made it for a reason. They
Speaker 1: believe they can win. And we'll see random I kind
Speaker 1: of love the randomness I live in. We did see
Speaker 1: guys that didn't work out. Cam I thought I was
Speaker 1: gonna work out. I wanted it now it didn't. We
Speaker 1: had high hopes, we had Hi hoops. Anyways, man, I
Speaker 1: had the highest of hopes. But that's all right. Uh,
Speaker 1: we'll be there in Vegas. B We're gonna turn it up.
Speaker 1: You know it's gonna be a new prediction Saints Verse
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos about don't you can't say that nobody believed
Speaker 1: in you because Patrick believed in you, and all that
Speaker 1: starts with a must have seen the faith. That's all
Speaker 1: we needed. Were Okay, we're gonna be right back more,
Speaker 1: Cam Jordan. We're gonna talk about Eagles players. We've got
Speaker 1: our eyes on. We are live from Arizona. Super Bowl
Speaker 1: is right around the corner, baby, Welcome back to Game
Speaker 1: day View. We are live from Radio Row in Arizona
Speaker 1: for Super Bowl fifty seven. You can just feel the
Speaker 1: energy in the room. We are so excited. Uh, folks,
Speaker 1: it's time for pizza pizza. Pregame predictions presented by Little Seasons.
Speaker 1: Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing. Pizza, pizza to
Speaker 1: the last. Nice. Thanks, guys. I think this whole entire
Speaker 1: episode of Game Debut is just showcasing Patrick's acting skill.
Speaker 1: It's amazing. You did great there too. Oh in cams too?
Speaker 1: Oh what's in there? Be careful it's Notting ready. Maybe
Speaker 1: it's Notting ready. Um, okay, guys, let's talk about a
Speaker 1: players who watch on this Eagles offense. Greg, I'll start
Speaker 1: with you, Okay, I'm gonna go basic this time. Sometimes
Speaker 1: the obvious answer it's right, it's Jalen Hurts. I think
Speaker 1: the first quarters gonna tell us so much about this game,
Speaker 1: especially in terms of Jalen Hurts running the ball. I
Speaker 1: think the Chiefs might want to force Jalen Hurts to
Speaker 1: make the decision to hold the ball on those r
Speaker 1: p o s. See if Hurts is really willing to
Speaker 1: run the ball sixteen to eighteen times in this game.
Speaker 1: And then there's the go ball. You know, he hit
Speaker 1: it early in the Giants game, went about oh for
Speaker 1: three on him against the forty nine. Is the way
Speaker 1: that the Chiefs play press coverage, I think there will
Speaker 1: be opportunities to go down the field, especially on the
Speaker 1: side of the field where it's Jalen Watson as the
Speaker 1: cornerback and Hurts has gotta hit those deep throws that's
Speaker 1: been so key to the Eagles all year. I'm a
Speaker 1: little worried because we kind of keep saying the same thing,
Speaker 1: because I really wanted to highlight the Jalen Hurts rushing situation.
Speaker 1: I know, I'm a little scared now, just so you know,
Speaker 1: corn like comes down on everything between I mean, what
Speaker 1: happens regular season, what about the other years? Not on
Speaker 1: this desk, Anyways, so what I was saying, just kidding.
Speaker 1: The running ability by Jalen Hurts really doesn't matter in
Speaker 1: this one. Since his shoulder injury, we haven't seen him
Speaker 1: cross the forty yard rushing mark before that was fifty
Speaker 1: four point three. That's going to be an interesting one
Speaker 1: because those quarterback designed runs we will be prominent in
Speaker 1: this one. This is for all the marvels. They're not
Speaker 1: saving him for the next game. They haven't had to
Speaker 1: bring out any of their best plays since, like before
Speaker 1: the shoulder injury. Right, we haven't had to see them
Speaker 1: really be competitive in any playoff game and they had
Speaker 1: to buy and before that, you know, when Gardner Runci
Speaker 1: was starting. Okay, that's interesting, but not so much, right,
Speaker 1: so we'll have to we'll have to see the rushing.
Speaker 1: Do you see like a version of a Philly Special? Like,
Speaker 1: do we see something crazy? Sirian it's got to make
Speaker 1: his own name. No, right, you can't go back to
Speaker 1: that's Sirianni version of the Philly Special. To the script? Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: speaking of sticking of the script, who is your offensive
Speaker 1: player to watch on the Eagles? Oh? Man, I mean
Speaker 1: we could go the obvious, but you guys are gonna
Speaker 1: cover them. I'm gonna go to the uh not, so
Speaker 1: I'm spoking about. Yeah, let's let's talk about you know,
Speaker 1: the man who brings a lot of juice with this
Speaker 1: big head and little body, Boston Scott, funny guy, but
Speaker 1: on the football field, he brings a juice what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Like we've talked about Miles Sandys, we talked about all
Speaker 1: the all the guys that they have, but like you
Speaker 1: bring up, that's crazy. I don't know how that happened.
Speaker 1: I'm not do you love to see it? Okay? What
Speaker 1: about the other side of the ball, the defensive side
Speaker 1: of the ball? H Cam, you're the experts. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: start with you. Who do you like here? Come on,
Speaker 1: I've been talking about their D line all week because
Speaker 1: this is crazy. There's seventy eight sacks deep over you know,
Speaker 1: regular season and playoffs. Seventy and regular season. But let's
Speaker 1: talk about again an X factor that we're just not
Speaker 1: talking about enough. The secondary. You got guys like big
Speaker 1: Place Sleigh, but let's talk about Chauncey Grner. That's crazy again.
Speaker 1: He had a lead tying six picks and still had
Speaker 1: one to play on my dog a little slime be
Speaker 1: gonna go get it, little sli. I love it, and
Speaker 1: you're an expert. You guys are the Eagles killers. You're
Speaker 1: the one team that the Eagles don't bother. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know what they were good to us. I mean
Speaker 1: I came up with sacks like Ricky Jackson's record, like
Speaker 1: Juste has been good to start the year off. You know,
Speaker 1: not good enough because I'm not in the playoffs. Do
Speaker 1: I love me some? Brandon Graham U one of the
Speaker 1: all time great Eagles. Everyone remembers the Philly Special. How
Speaker 1: about remembering the play that ended the Super Bowl against
Speaker 1: the Patriots. That was Brandon Graham getting the sack. And
Speaker 1: they've kept him fresh throughout the season, only using about
Speaker 1: twenty to thirty stuff. Now you unleash him. I went
Speaker 1: and watch the NFC Championship tape and he had Trent
Speaker 1: Williams on skates pushing him back on a couple of
Speaker 1: different snaps. And I don't know if there's anyone else
Speaker 1: stronger in the league than Brandon Graham to be able
Speaker 1: to push a man like Trent Williams that good back.
Speaker 1: He's playing some excellent ball right now, and to me,
Speaker 1: You're gonna use him more than ever, maybe more snaps,
Speaker 1: more production brand than Graham. I went same general idea
Speaker 1: as well, but I am the model I went with
Speaker 1: Cox on this one. I love interior pressure against Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes in the angle because we've seen that Patrick Mahomes
Speaker 1: has actually scored the most passing touchdowns on short passes,
Speaker 1: so ten or fewer are yard passes. Interior pressure comes
Speaker 1: from a little closer that could be an area where
Speaker 1: maybe he has that extra jump. We have seen Fletchercox
Speaker 1: stop runners. We have seen Fletchercox get two quarterbacks and
Speaker 1: be really destructive as well. So it's just the alignment
Speaker 1: that I was curious about in this because you know
Speaker 1: that the Eagles are going to bring pressure from all
Speaker 1: over that defensive front, so I'm curious to see what
Speaker 1: the big man is gonna be doing. Cam. Thank you
Speaker 1: so much for hanging out with Now I want pizza.
Speaker 1: We hope you're not here next year when we do this.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be too busy getting ready for getting ready
Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl. Cynthia's model is projecting seven catches
Speaker 1: for eighties six yards and a touchdown for Travis this weekend,
Speaker 1: which isn't a bad take, considering he scored in five
Speaker 1: straight playoff games for the Chiefs. Yeah, there's a couple
Speaker 1: of things you want to kind of piece together here,
Speaker 1: like your pizza, pizza, pizza. But ultimately, when I'm looking
Speaker 1: at this, look there's this is a great defense he's facing.
Speaker 1: But if there's one area of vulnerability that I think
Speaker 1: Andy Reid will target, it's going to be that back
Speaker 1: mid a third of the defense. It's called the Travis
Speaker 1: Kelsey area. It's the safety so not named e J. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's a it's a trademars exactly, trademark and those linebackers
Speaker 1: in coverage theail out almost a fifty eight percent completion
Speaker 1: percentage to this area. That is actually the one of
Speaker 1: the metrics where they're like in the twenties, like in
Speaker 1: the league in that So that's an area where Travis
Speaker 1: Kelsey will thrive and maybe is a point of vulnerability. Okay,
Speaker 1: I love to see it. Can't wait, guys, that is
Speaker 1: almost time to pick the game. Okay, just put up
Speaker 1: the alarms. We're gonna get to it. We're having a
Speaker 1: blast on media rows so many players plugging products around us,
Speaker 1: which let's be very clear I'm available and I have experience.
Speaker 1: I can't wait for the Rihanna concert, I mean the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I'm so sorry. Uh, guys, Sunday is gonna
Speaker 1: be so fun. Cynthia and I are gonna be right there.
Speaker 1: We are going to be inside Mistum on the field
Speaker 1: for our pregame show. Sent are you si? Don't know? What?
Speaker 1: Do you think they're gonna let us like ride the
Speaker 1: grass in? You know they like roll the grass. I
Speaker 1: want to ride the grass it Oh, I don't think so.
Speaker 1: We could ask real nicely though. Okay, it's time for
Speaker 1: battle at the line presented by Caesar Sports Book. And
Speaker 1: because you know, speaking of the line, it is Eagles
Speaker 1: one and a half with the over underset at fifty
Speaker 1: and a half, which is higher than it was last year. Guys,
Speaker 1: but how about four straight Super Bowls hitting the under.
Speaker 1: That's shocking. And looking at that Patriots Rams game, that
Speaker 1: was sixteen total points, that was that was We haven't
Speaker 1: had an over different. We have not had an over
Speaker 1: since Super Bowl fifty two, and this is super Bowl
Speaker 1: fifty seven. Patrick, I'm gonna start with you. If that
Speaker 1: information is giving you second thoughts, too bad. Okay, your
Speaker 1: scores locked in. It's fine. Are you taking the over
Speaker 1: the under? Here? Give me the over, Give me the over.
Speaker 1: I'm not afraid of the previous year's games that have
Speaker 1: nothing to do with this one. These teams have scored
Speaker 1: a hundred and twenty combined touchdowns this season. I fifty
Speaker 1: and a half point. No, it's over for me, way over.
Speaker 1: I'm going over as well. I feel it's the only
Speaker 1: fear that I have. I feel like every time we
Speaker 1: say a super Bowl or any game, oh, this is
Speaker 1: gonna be fireworks and high scoring, it's not. But I
Speaker 1: have faith in this one specifically, we truly do have
Speaker 1: the two best offenses that we could have possibly happened
Speaker 1: upon for the Super Bowl. So I have high hopes. Greg,
Speaker 1: what are you going? I am going over so far over.
Speaker 1: I don't care about the historical Whenever they show those stats,
Speaker 1: it is like, oh, the a f C team hasn't
Speaker 1: one after losing the coin flip four years. They're just
Speaker 1: like trying to make you think something matters. That doesn't matter. Uh,
Speaker 1: these defenses are good to turn into a New York
Speaker 1: But sometimes it doesn't matter. Does Sometimes defensive score points
Speaker 1: to like I could see that happening. Turnovers. Uh, the
Speaker 1: last Eagles game I think will be more instructive of
Speaker 1: what this game was in the Super Bowl. Lots of points.
Speaker 1: What do you think the model is gonna do? I'm
Speaker 1: saying choosing to fun, the models choosing over as well.
Speaker 1: We've got all across the board here. You gotta remember
Speaker 1: those other numbers were higher. Fifty five is about five
Speaker 1: points higher than fifty and a half, so just saying
Speaker 1: that number is just a little bit too low. And
Speaker 1: they score fast. Patrick Mahomes can score fast, and I
Speaker 1: think both teams. Scripted plays will yield points, which means
Speaker 1: it's gonna start strong, which means we will finish strong.
Speaker 1: I cannot wait, guys, I think it's time. Do you
Speaker 1: feel like it's time? I think I kind of. I
Speaker 1: kinda want to be over another do I maybe we
Speaker 1: should just see like one more break. Yeah, when we're breaking,
Speaker 1: the will pick the game sounds good coming up after
Speaker 1: the break. We are giving you our Super Bowl fifty
Speaker 1: seven picks, m VP picks, all of it. So don't
Speaker 1: go anywhere. Hey, welcome back to game days you. We're
Speaker 1: hanging out on radio Row in Arizona, and like our
Speaker 1: producers like to call us out with tweets when we're wrong.
Speaker 1: I feel like to humiliate us some national television. I
Speaker 1: think it's it's like a little game for them. But
Speaker 1: not this time. Okay, not this time. You actually can't
Speaker 1: be mean about this, because that's how impressive it is
Speaker 1: back in week one. Take a look at this time
Speaker 1: for our predictions. Write these down, throw them back on
Speaker 1: our face. How about we know you will anyways? What
Speaker 1: do you like? You know what I didn't see on
Speaker 1: that board? A little Eagles over the Chief's action. Let's go. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know what's even fatter than having like four or
Speaker 1: three good offensive? I mean how about eight? Oh like
Speaker 1: two or three good defensive? I mean how about eight?
Speaker 1: A great number one receiver in DeVonta Smith. Let's add
Speaker 1: another one in A J. Brown. I loved how deep
Speaker 1: this team is. I love the Chiefs this year too,
Speaker 1: but I love the Eagles a little bar Wow. Oh,
Speaker 1: September was such an innocent time before I spent the
Speaker 1: whole season honking about my picks. Yeah. Really, honestly, it's
Speaker 1: time for who's punching your ticket? Presented by ticket Master?
Speaker 1: I mean I gotta ask Gregory sticking with your pick,
Speaker 1: I cannot. Of course, I'll stick with it. I've got
Speaker 1: the Eagles winning this game thirty five to thirty one.
Speaker 1: And one of the reasons I love this team is
Speaker 1: because they don't care. They're not afraid of the moment.
Speaker 1: It's Nick Sirianni in a big spot calling fourth down plays,
Speaker 1: being aggressive when Andy Reid might be going for the
Speaker 1: field goal. And I think in a big game like this,
Speaker 1: sometimes it's good that you haven't been there, that you
Speaker 1: haven't been in this spot. I think he goes for
Speaker 1: the two point conversions. I love this Eagles coaching team
Speaker 1: and staff. And if I end up finishing off this prediction,
Speaker 1: right you guys aren't gonna stop hearing about it until
Speaker 1: we're back and we won, I will just show down
Speaker 1: and I want to call you up. We've done this
Speaker 1: show for four years. I know you got to enjoy
Speaker 1: the wins when you can, because the model is inevitable eventually.
Speaker 1: I mean, I love that I have the exact opposite,
Speaker 1: so this means we will actually have a winner, right like,
Speaker 1: because it comes down to, yes, I the Eagles, when
Speaker 1: the Eagles, When I have the Chiefs, I have twenty
Speaker 1: eight to six in this matchup a very closely contested game.
Speaker 1: To me, it comes down to the ability of those
Speaker 1: running backs for the Chiefs to just pick up the blitz.
Speaker 1: Give Patrick Mahomes there's a little bit of extra time
Speaker 1: for magic and the fact that the Eagles haven't been
Speaker 1: tested in well over a month and not good point
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like they're as well built to play coming
Speaker 1: from behind as maybe like you never think Mahomes is
Speaker 1: out of it even if they know if they don't
Speaker 1: score first or something like that, this is gonna be
Speaker 1: this wnna be a great game. She makes a lot
Speaker 1: of good team. Cynthia, Baby, I'm on team Cynthia. I
Speaker 1: am going the Kansas City Chiefs over the Eagles. I've
Speaker 1: got a big scoring game, thirty two to thirty. Listen,
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes on like one foot is scary. Now he's
Speaker 1: gotten time to heal this team. It's just, you know,
Speaker 1: it's like not betting against the Patriots way back when
Speaker 1: that's how it feels with the Chiefs. Now In, Patrick Mahomes,
Speaker 1: I'm just not doing it. Patrick, who do you like? Well, honestly,
Speaker 1: we've and we've gotta get check research and see what
Speaker 1: our girls versus Boys. Stats are for because we're doing
Speaker 1: it again, and I feel you. One day, you know,
Speaker 1: hopefully I still have a job. When Patrick Mahomes is
Speaker 1: going into the Hall of Fame, it's gonna be there.
Speaker 1: He's gonna accomplish so much. But this Eagles team is
Speaker 1: so good. The offense uh scoring more touchdowns than anybody
Speaker 1: else throughout the season when they have all of their
Speaker 1: starters on the field, and the defense getting all the
Speaker 1: pressure that they do. I just can't not pick the
Speaker 1: team that's been so good all season long. Honestly, both
Speaker 1: of these teams are so fun. It's like the first
Speaker 1: Super Bowl that I'm like, I really, I don't care,
Speaker 1: like I just want a fun game. Both of these
Speaker 1: could be winners. It's gonna be great. Talk about Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes looking to be a two time Super Bowl m
Speaker 1: v P. He's got the best odds to win the award,
Speaker 1: only two chiefs in the top seven between him and
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey. But who is it going to be? Time
Speaker 1: for a tip of the cap presented by new Era.
Speaker 1: Who is your MD? And I'm looking down the bottom
Speaker 1: of the board and I like the number for Miles Sanders.
Speaker 1: He had two touchdowns in the last time against the
Speaker 1: forty Honors. Eagles are gonna keep the ball in the ground,
Speaker 1: maybe have Patrick Mahomes on the sideline as much as
Speaker 1: they can. I like an opportunity for Miles Center, so
Speaker 1: sneak in there and snag a Super Bowl and BT.
Speaker 1: I love that pick because I think the biggest mismatch
Speaker 1: in this game is the running game of the Eagles
Speaker 1: versus the run defense of the Chiefs. But I'm going
Speaker 1: with Jalen Hurts to win the m v P. Getting
Speaker 1: it done. Let's put on the hat here the Chiefs.
Speaker 1: They said you couldn't run this offense in the NFL,
Speaker 1: that it's a college offense. Oh, you can't risk your
Speaker 1: quarterback getting hit RPO. He's gonna be holding onto the
Speaker 1: ball a lot of the times on those r p
Speaker 1: O s on Sunday, and I think he has like
Speaker 1: a ninety rushing yard game, an efficient passing game, and
Speaker 1: really a cinderella story from a late second round pick
Speaker 1: to this spot for Jalen Hurts. Like Jalen Hurts, but
Speaker 1: I think it's curious that the lead for the m
Speaker 1: v P is not in the same team as the
Speaker 1: one who's favored to win the game. Curious, very curious
Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes, Like it's not that exciting, but typically
Speaker 1: the quarterback wins a the word he already on one
Speaker 1: m v P. Maybe that's like a bad omen Sometimes
Speaker 1: that doesn't really always work out. But I think double
Speaker 1: m v P for Patrick Mahomes. I love season. Pass
Speaker 1: me that hat. You've got beautiful hair. I won't make
Speaker 1: you do it and find it on I'm going Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes as well. Come on, we were all on boot
Speaker 1: watch like a week ago. Okay, we were what we
Speaker 1: were looking at every single angle of that ankle and
Speaker 1: how he walked up and down the podium. Greg okay,
Speaker 1: and then he came out and he did his thing.
Speaker 1: I think he does it again two weeks to heal Okay,
Speaker 1: He's a maniac. He the game win, the game winning drive,
Speaker 1: the game winning moment he ran the ball. It worried
Speaker 1: the field. That his vision unlike any player I've ever seen.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like staring down. The model is like
Speaker 1: staring down Patrick Mahomes. But some years you can beat
Speaker 1: the best in the game, just one game. You can
Speaker 1: beat it, just like I'm going to beat you. You
Speaker 1: are the best in the game. I also don't know
Speaker 1: what to do in the game. It really is um guys,
Speaker 1: that's the universe show. What is the end of our
Speaker 1: beautiful season? Thank you to all of our wonderful producers
Speaker 1: and everyone back in that line. Thank you to Patrick,
Speaker 1: a new addition to our show who has just been
Speaker 1: absolutely wonderful to work with this year. Enjoying the Super
