This is when we 37 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: really lean on you and you understand that you know 38 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: that I've been you know, preparing, I got extra sleep, 39 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: did push ups. That's calculator buttons, you know, don't don't 40 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: press themselves. The plus you your families out of town. 41 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: They've left you for Japan, and you now have all 42 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 1: this time to yourself. I don't know what you're doing 43 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: with all this time. I've heard some um strange reports. 44 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: I just hope all that free time doesn't lead to 45 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: faulty computations. I hope, so, I mean, I hope you're right. 46 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: All right. So we're gonna get to all the games. 47 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: There were three games, of course on Saturday, and we'll 48 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,839 Speaker 1: get to them in fairly short order. But let's start 49 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: with a couple of Sunday games that really jumped out 50 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: to us, yes, including one that could very well end 51 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: up deciding the NFC East. So let's start in the 52 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: City of Brotherly Love. Prescott Hi. Prescott steps up. He 53 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: is firing deep at it as complete and complete by 54 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: Sydney Jones, whobody go player the play against the Giants 55 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: two weeks ago. Well, Sydney Jones just made the play 56 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: of the day because he is stride for stride down 57 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: the sideline and able to get the football out intended 58 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: for Michael Gallup down that left side. So this game 59 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: is not over yet. Oh but it was Brad Brad Sham, 60 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: the sham god in Babe Laughingberg with the call for 61 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: kr L d yes, Sidney Jones broke up Dak Prescott's 62 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: sport down past the Michael Gallup in the end zone, 63 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: and then the Eagles were able to uh run for 64 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: a couple of complete a first down, past run for 65 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: another first down and end the game. They win seventeen 66 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: to nine over the Eagles, and the Cowboys had a 67 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: chance west to win the division, didn't come close in 68 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: this one. And the Eagles are the team there, played 69 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: like a true team when it matters most and the 70 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys that just into the busting a part of the seams. Well, 71 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: I think it's the second time in three weeks where 72 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: you look at the Cowboys operation and the blame just 73 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 1: gets spread across the board, starting with the coaching staff. Um, 74 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: they were just running into stacked boxes. Seemed like the 75 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 1: entire first half on early downs when the Eagles cornerbacks 76 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: were injured, they were lining up to take numbers at 77 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: the medical tent. For a while for the Eagles, there 78 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: were so many injuries and the matchups you could you 79 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: could tell was the Cowboys wide receivers on the Eagles cornerbacks, 80 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: and they kept running on early downs and then you 81 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: spread the blame to the players because you know Amari 82 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: Cooper drops, Jason went and dropped, Randall Cobb, a couple 83 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: of drops, Michael Gallup drop Dak Prescott, who's got a 84 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: bum shoulder, a couple of misfires, especially at Tavon Austin 85 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: Um got wide open on the final drive with the 86 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 1: chance for a long touchdown. There was a third down 87 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: throw that Dak ms to Mariy Cooper. Uh. The defense 88 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: could not stop the Eagles screenplays and Miles Sanders. It 89 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: was just a poor effort across the board. And I 90 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: this is to play like that with the season on 91 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: the line twice in three weeks. Just terrible. I look 92 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: at the passing game, and I know Dak Prescott's injured, 93 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: but it's two thousand and nineteen and you're dropping back 94 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: to past forty four times and the Eagles didn't really 95 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: have much pressure on him. They ended up with four 96 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: QB hits on the day, didn't have a ton of hurries. 97 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: If you look at the PFF pass blocking grades, it's 98 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: all great. So you get great pass protection, you got Doc, 99 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: you gotta mar you got Cobb, you got all these players, 100 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: and you can't throw the ball against a team that 101 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: in the Eagles, that's given up some pretty big point 102 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: totals to some pretty bad offenses lately, and it's I 103 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: feel like whoever lost this game was gonna face essentially 104 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: a home city firing squad, because you know, Troy Aikman 105 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: noted called this the Eagles win, the best team win 106 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: he's ever seen, which that shocks me because it feels 107 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: a tad feelings. Yeah, I just feel is a tad 108 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: hyperbolic because it wouldn't be surprised if next week the 109 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: Cowboys went out and wiped out Team X and the 110 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: Eagles lost and they're both eight and Nate I just 111 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: the Eagles. To me, it's it's Dallas Goddard guys stepping up. 112 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: With Zach Ertz is out. That's huge and that's a 113 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: big win. But it's still a very inconsistent team, both 114 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: of them. I think Troy's referencing the fact that even 115 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: if the Eagles were healthy, the Cowboys have a much 116 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: better roster at this point, and they weren't healthy. They 117 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: were decimated by injuries in the Cowboys still have an 118 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: incredibly more talented roster than the Eagles at this point 119 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: in the season and the undermanned Eagles just took it 120 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: to the Cowboy. And if you want to make the 121 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: case that Jason Garrett has overstayed his welcome and it's 122 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: finally time to say goodbye, I understand it. And I 123 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: think anybody that says that's not something that should be 124 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: done really had better have a good reason why, because 125 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 1: Garrett has not made the most of this team. But 126 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: then it's like the other thing, and I bring this 127 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: up occasionally this podcast. The other thing that gets on 128 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: my radar a little bit when people get mad at 129 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: coaching a coaching staff, our head coach is man, where 130 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: is the accountability on the players in this game? To 131 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: your point, West, how many big plays and game changing 132 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: plays that Tavon Austin, overthrow by Dak, the drops by Gallop, 133 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 1: These plays are absolutely on the on a play a 134 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: team that is not stepping up when it matters most 135 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: when it counts, And maybe it's a personnel issue as 136 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: much as it is a coaching issue. And that's just 137 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: the story of this Cowboys season that everybody kind of faltered. Uh, 138 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: it wasn't just a head coach's fault. I agree with 139 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: that that the players have to take some of the 140 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: brunt of the blame, but it's on the coaches to 141 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: stress the urgency here and and for the past month, 142 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: the urgency here for a team that is way more 143 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: talented than any other NFC East team and that hasn't 144 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: been done. And a guy like Joe Banner, who you know, 145 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: I know, some people like him, don't like him, used 146 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: to be the president of the Browns president of the Eagles, 147 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: spent the entire game pointing out the specific areas and 148 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: twitch Jason Yes on Twitter, the specific areas in which 149 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: Jason Garrett was being out coached, in which the Cowboys 150 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: defensive staff was getting out coached. And then you see 151 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: things like Jason Garrett punting on fourth and one in 152 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, and then the next very next drive 153 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: going forward on fourth and eight, and the drive after 154 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: that going forward on fourth and nine, and it's like, 155 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: where what's the logic here? And on the key snap 156 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: of the game, Amari Cooper's not in there. Amari Cooper 157 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: told reporters he was pulled out by coaches. That wasn't 158 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: a case of him pulling himself out. There was also 159 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: a key third and one where Zeke apparently you know, 160 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: hit his helmet to that he wanted to be taken out, 161 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: which is going to get attention, you know, one of 162 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: the big I know, I'm sure he was tired and 163 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: and all of that, but that that's a play that 164 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: you expect Ezekiel Elliott to want the ball and to 165 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: be on the fields. They have three more wins the Cowboys, dude, 166 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: then the New York Giants. It is completely unacceptable from 167 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: where we were at the beginning of the season. You 168 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: looked at this roster up and down that the blame 169 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: is spread everywhere, but the coaching staff has found a 170 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: way year after year to not maximize the roster they can't. 171 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: I really do think there is something you unique about 172 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: Dallas that because of Jerry Jones and the way he 173 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: treats his players, because the way the city treats are 174 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: players that they struggle with success and just because it 175 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: keeps happening every single time they have a good season 176 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: and they expect the next season is gonna be everyone. 177 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: It never happens. Because football there's such a small margin 178 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: between these teams. When you lose a little bit of 179 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: that edge, it's huge, and I think the biggest mistake 180 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: Jones made in the Garrett era was two thousand thirteen, 181 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: after their third straight eight and eight, when we were 182 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: when Garrett had blown so many game management situations over 183 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: and over and over again, and to me, that felt 184 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: like the time where he had shown that he wasn't 185 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: your coach. And here you are another six years later, 186 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: headed to an eight and A and maybe the playoffs. 187 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: You said it, I can totally see them them winning 188 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: next week and the Eagles losing that game to the Giants. 189 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: That Cowboys have the redskins. I mean, I don't think this. 190 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: We've mentioned this before. I do. This season has been 191 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: so up and down. I think the Eagles will win 192 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: and by the way, But it's just possible that you'd 193 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 1: like to think that. But were weird are things have 194 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: happened in our universe than two weeks from now we're 195 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: talking about the Cowboys in the wild Card round having 196 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: shocked a team at home, or the Seahawks or the Eagles. 197 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: And I just want to give the Eagles the credit 198 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: they deserve here because Carson wentz uh leading the way 199 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: for the past three weeks. How could you not be 200 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 1: ultra and pressed with him? In the last two years 201 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: he's been basically sidelined by injuries this time of year, 202 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: and what you've been able to see and even today 203 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: another example we already have. He he has almost nothing 204 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: to work with at the wide receiver position. This game 205 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: he loses zach Ertz, who is his security, play blanket, 206 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: his all everything. Some quarterbacks would go into a shell 207 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: at that point and he would have a perfectly good excuse. 208 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: In this case, Dallas got it and to got its um, 209 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: you know, to on on him. Good for him. He 210 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: was able to step up in a big spot here 211 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: nine and a touchdown and they just made the plays. 212 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: And he's played mistake freeball and his sloppy as Wentz 213 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: was when they were struggling. Uh, these last three weeks, 214 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,199 Speaker 1: he has been exactly who they've needed. Greg Ward outplayed 215 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper today And we touched on this in the 216 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: preview of this game, that the Eagles have something on 217 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: offense now that they didn't have a month ago. Greg Ward, 218 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard, zach Ertz, Miles Sanders. This is way more 219 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: than they had working for them a month ago. And 220 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: and Carson Wentz And when's the difference today? I thought 221 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: was in these third and short situations. In these third 222 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: down situations, Wentz found a way to move the chains, 223 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: whether it was by rushing, whether it was avoiding pressure 224 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: and hitting receivers. Dad did not find a way to 225 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: make those plays. And as good as Wentz has has 226 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: been playing late in the season, Miles Sanders has over 227 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: three d yards in the last two weeks. That is monster. 228 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: You're getting Christian mccapp Granted it's two weeks, but he 229 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: had some games before that. But you're getting Christian McCaffrey 230 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,559 Speaker 1: production out of Miles Sanders last two years. He's now 231 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 1: one of five rookies in history to have five hundred 232 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: yards rushing and receiving in the same rookie seasons. UH. 233 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: The Eagles are a win at the Meadow Ends against 234 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: the Giants away in week seventeen from the NFC East title. 235 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: Let's move on. The Saints are team that will be 236 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: playing UH postseason football, and they had a chance to 237 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: strengthen their chances at a buy in Nashville. What happened 238 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: breeze under center here, I formation Joshul Molson's left, the 239 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: right breeze is gonna look for throws go into his 240 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: right close and it's caught and guess who Michael Thomas 241 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 1: from two yards out. Mike Thomas gets the touchdown back 242 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: and he now extends his lead a hundred and forty 243 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,719 Speaker 1: five receptions in the one football season. With a game 244 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: to go, look out now, Zack Street, Saints Radio Network 245 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: with the call yes. In week fifteen, it was Drew 246 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: Brees making NFL history. In Week sixteen, it was Michael 247 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: Thomas's turn. Thomas set the single season catch record and 248 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: caught the game icing touchdown pass you just heard in 249 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: a win over the Titans in Nashville. At twelve and three. 250 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: The Saints remain in the hunt for the number one 251 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: seed in the NFC Greg This was another impressive win 252 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: for a Saints team that looks ready to do some 253 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,319 Speaker 1: damage in January, regardless of where they fall in the 254 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: playoff bracket. They look like a super Bowl team to me, 255 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: and I think super Bowl teams have these check marks 256 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: games that they have to go through. And they lost 257 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:03,719 Speaker 1: that tough one against the forty nine is a couple 258 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 1: of weeks ago. But down fourteen three on the road, 259 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: you have two of your starting offensive lineman out of 260 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: the game, your offense and Drew Brees was just furious. 261 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 1: Through the first five drive drives of this game, they 262 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 1: had one field goal in four punts, and you're playing 263 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: a good team on a short week, and they score 264 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: five touchdowns in their next six possessions, and they put 265 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: up thirty eight points in Tennessee. And Tennessee is a 266 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: little banged up in the in the secondary. They were 267 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: without Derrick Henry Uh in this game as well. UH 268 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: and Jeffrey Simmons was out. They might have been looking 269 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: a little bit t too week seventeen, just in terms 270 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 1: of those decisions, but they were playing as hard as 271 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: they can and for an offense to just take over, 272 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,559 Speaker 1: that's the Saints to me, and and I really love 273 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 1: their chances of getting a bye. We'll have to see 274 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: what happens in the next couple of days or next 275 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 1: week or so, but they are putting themselves in position 276 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: to be in the Superos. A lot of bubbling up 277 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: on Twitter of when they were struggling against the Titans 278 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: at one point in this game that, oh, it's just 279 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 1: just like every other Saints team you play outside, They're 280 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: not gonna be able to do anything that's gonna happen. 281 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: But now I think that there's a reason for that 282 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 1: belief because it has been true of Dome teams, and 283 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 1: it's been true of Drew's Drew Brees, but it hasn't 284 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: been jure of this New Orleans Saints team. There's six 285 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: and one on the road this year versus six and 286 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: two at home. They have the best record in the 287 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: NFL on the road over the last three years. So 288 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: if they got some bad luck and did have to 289 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: play some games on the road and don't get that 290 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: by like like they're hoping for, I do think that 291 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: this is a team that can be anyone anywhere in 292 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: the NFC. How did Alvin Camaro look? He looked like 293 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: a different Alvin Camara, especially on his touchdown run. Just 294 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: the speed was there. He still didn't make guys miss 295 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: in the open field, but I felt like a relief 296 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: for him to get that forty yard touchdown run. He 297 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: had added another touchdown later in the game, had add 298 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: ten total scrimmage yards. So I think they feel uh 299 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: much better when he's running like that, especially because they 300 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: will get their linemen back they believe. I don't. I don't. 301 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: The one thing that happened in this game that I 302 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: to me was just a ghastly moment officiating wise, and 303 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: it deserved a longer look. Was the Calif Raymond fumbled 304 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: for the Titans, where you know what, stopped by one defender, 305 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: but the second one coming in. I saw a helmet 306 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: to Helmett contact and you mentioned that the broadcast didn't 307 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: really kind of let it float by. That's the kind 308 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: of thing that was a key moment in that contest. 309 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: Intend it kind of killed Tennessee's chance. I mean, it 310 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: goes both ways. It's such it's become impossible to kind 311 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: of accurately get that right because the game is moving 312 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: so fast. And how many times have we seen fifteen 313 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: yard penalties assessed on a team that did not land 314 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: a head to head But in that case it was 315 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: it was stopped because they were checking. It was on 316 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: a turnover to set that you call that on challenge. 317 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: You could have Mike Rabel did um you know, no, no, 318 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: after the game, Look, they looked at that play, and 319 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: when they look at that play, they can look at 320 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: everything there. You know, that's one of the things that 321 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: they can look at. So that happened on a turnover. 322 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 1: Calif Raymond fumbled the ball like right when he got 323 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: hit apparently it appeared to be contacted in the head. 324 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: The Saints pick it up and then they go for 325 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: a touchdown in the fourth quarter to go up ten. 326 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: So it was a huge spot. The Titans fought really 327 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: well all game. Uh, and I guess the the officiating, 328 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: you know, back in New York decided it wasn't enough 329 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: to to overturn it. And the Derrick Henry sitting out. Sure, 330 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: there are a lot of fantasy owners that were devastated 331 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: by that, but that could end up being a brilliant 332 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: move by them because they still they're in the playoffs. 333 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: They gotta beat the Texans and then they need the 334 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: Steelers to lose to the Ravens. Uh if I'm correct, Greg. Yeah, 335 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: they just they just need to win. That's all they need. 336 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: Win it in. They didn't know that when they started today, 337 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: but they knew that next week was going to be 338 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: the key game, and Pittsburgh loss helped them out. They 339 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: could also get in with the Pittsburgh and Indianapolis loss. 340 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: If those two teams lose next week, Tennessee wouldn't even 341 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: have to win. But it's a weird day for Tennessee 342 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: because they came out of it despite the loss in 343 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: better shape, uh than they were going into it because 344 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 1: of the Pittsburgh game, and feeling even better about Ryan Tannehill. 345 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: It took a couple more sacks, but got It's amazing 346 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: how well he's throwing the football. He's throwing the football 347 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: like the ball as well as I would say any 348 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: like a top five quarterback. He threw it great. Again. 349 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:19,400 Speaker 1: It was the only reason they were in this game. 350 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 1: There were a ton of big plays in both directions. 351 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: He made some great I saw a couple of players 352 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: where the Saints were right in his face and his 353 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: grill and he got the ball. It just looks like 354 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: a completely different player than he Wasn't a concerned would 355 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: be their their offensive line, which was definitely a problem. 356 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: He held the ball too long a few times, but 357 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: Taylor Lauen had had a rough day and in general, 358 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: he had to make some tough throws. And the Texans 359 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: are likely locked in to their seed or they can't 360 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,199 Speaker 1: make a move into the by so you would imagine 361 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: the Titans might be facing a Texans team that's not playing. 362 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: Everybody were playing big snaps next week, so this that's 363 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 1: it's gonna be one of the stories, not to you know, 364 00:17:55,760 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: spoil you know, like what teams do want to play 365 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 1: next week, because the Texans will in theory have seeding 366 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: to play for no matter what. It's the three and 367 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: the four seed. Though, so how much how much do 368 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: you care about that? And you're gonna need to get 369 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: help uh to to move up and get that three seed. 370 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: It might not be well, that's for Sexans are shaler. 371 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: They need to keep their players healthy. All right, let 372 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: us now check in on the Saturday games. Let's roll 373 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 1: through them, and we'll start with a Saturday night game. 374 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: Up at the bag ball bottom roppoo in the gun kittled. 375 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: It was left Ny Moster to his right, existed the 376 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: front roppolo, gonna throw a deep shot to all the field. 377 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 1: A little sad Gus has got it. They never touched him. 378 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: He could still run right think touched them down? And 379 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: any about the forty guys unfair of all range. He 380 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: is Robbie gold time. What a shot there. On third 381 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: and sixteen, they pick up forty six on the pulk 382 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: trop to a Manuel Sander, Greg Papa with the call 383 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: for the forty nine is Radio Network the under seed 384 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: to be involved in late game Dramatics every week. This 385 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 1: week they were on the right side of the ledger 386 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders forty six yard catch set up a chip 387 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: shot Robbie gouldfield goal this time ran out win thirty 388 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 1: four to thirty one over the Rams. The loss eliminates 389 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: Los Angeles from postseason contention nearly eleven months after they 390 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: made it all the way to the Super Bowl. And um, 391 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: you know, this is a game that is still coming 392 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: down to Niners Rams next week. But you wanted, uh 393 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: Niners team coming off that really bad Atlanta game. You 394 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: didn't want to lose another one here and put yourselves 395 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: in a situation where you feel like you're trending downward 396 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: in the wrong direction. So credit to them. Also, you know, 397 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: that's a that's a tough game against the Rams team 398 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: that was desperate for a win. The Rams needed to 399 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,479 Speaker 1: win twice and get Minnesota to lose twice to get 400 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: back to the playoffs, and instead they get the job done. 401 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: And if if on the Rams side of the ball, 402 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 1: I mean it's it was such a frustrating season, uh 403 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: for the Rams. After the three and oh start, they 404 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: just could never really get things going. And you wonder 405 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: what lies a head for this team. But I thought 406 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 1: it was just fitting the way that this game. You know, 407 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 1: the play that you just heard went down where Jalen 408 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: Ramsey and the and the safety had a miscommunication. I 409 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: don't think it was Ramsey's fault, but the Ramsey called 410 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: out safety Taylor rap Is saying after the game that 411 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: he blew the assignment. I don't know if you want 412 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,199 Speaker 1: players saying that about each other, but that's I mean, 413 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 1: Charles Davis said it on the broadcast, Taylor raps Garden Air, 414 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: Ramsey got beat on the PLA and whatever the whatever, 415 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: who was responsible for what it let It was a 416 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: coverage bus that absolutely could not happen in that spot 417 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,479 Speaker 1: and kind of a crushing way for your season, essentially 418 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: be ruined to to break down mentally in that spot. 419 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: So the Rams go home and the Niners are feeling 420 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: good against a compromise Seahawks team coming up in Week seventeen. 421 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: Feels like there's been so many crucible moments for Jimmy 422 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: Garoppolo over the second half of the season. He's won some, 423 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 1: he's lost some, But I don't get the doubt at 424 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: this point. We know that at this point he's not 425 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,479 Speaker 1: a guy where the moment ever seems too big for him. 426 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: I mean, despite his lack of experience, uh coming into 427 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: this year, who's more battle tested for January Jimmy G. 428 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 1: As we had had toward the playoffs. They went from 429 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 1: a team that won a lot of games by a 430 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: lot of points to about seven straight weeks, many of 431 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: which against really good teams, have all been you know, 432 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: knuckle what do they call him? Knuckle knuckling down? I 433 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: don't know, white knuckle? Why does that even mean? The 434 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: white knuckles just so tight that I think like working 435 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: men of the past knew what that meant. I'm not 436 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: sure we do. It's like your hands are on the 437 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: steering wheel and all you can see is white knuckles. 438 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:39,880 Speaker 1: And he didn't even play that well in this game. 439 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the weird thing about this game. You watch, 440 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 1: It wasn't a great Jimmy G game overall until the end, 441 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: and Jared Goff played incredible. It's one of the weird 442 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: things about this Ramp season is you couldn't like get 443 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 1: everything going right at the same time. Jared Goff made 444 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 1: four or five throws in this game that we're as 445 00:21:55,920 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 1: good or better than anything. Yeah, And one one mistake, 446 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: but you put up thirty one on the forty Niners, 447 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,959 Speaker 1: even giving up a pick six, you expect to win 448 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 1: that game, and it could have repercussions. Mike Silver hinted 449 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: at that in his column that Wade Phillips could be 450 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: a goner after this year, and maybe Todd Gurley too. 451 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: And from the forty Niners at this point, you wonder 452 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: what their identity is, And to me, it just seems 453 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 1: like it's George Kittle hop on his back. Let one 454 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,360 Speaker 1: of the five best players in the NFL take you there, 455 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: and he will too. Third to third and sixteen conversions 456 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: setting upeus field goal. The second being that coverage bust 457 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: that we mentioned. I think the one thing that jumped 458 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: out to me a little bit that I'd be concerned 459 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: with if I was a forty Niners fan was the 460 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: offensive line. Garoppolo didn't have a lot of time in 461 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 1: this game. Here. There were a lot of times the 462 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: pocket was pretty jacked up, and we know they lost 463 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: uh Weston Richberg the center to an injury. Some bad 464 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: snaps in this game also, Uh in general, Uh, you 465 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,479 Speaker 1: imagine not every team has an Aaron Donald and Dante Fowler, 466 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: but in January. They're gonna send you know, they're gonna 467 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,880 Speaker 1: becoming after Garoppolo, and you can't protect him. He's gonna 468 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: make mistakes. He's not He's not a mistake. He's not 469 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,679 Speaker 1: a flawless quarterback, and if you put the pressure on him, 470 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 1: he could throw a game away. I think you would 471 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: anyone have a problem with Kyle Shanahan winning coach of 472 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,719 Speaker 1: the Year. I guess it's no outside of the Ravens 473 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 1: situation that to me he stands out. I think it's 474 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: John horrible. I wouldn't have a problem though. Those would 475 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: be my two. And it seems basic because they've you know, 476 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: they've got the best records. But I also think you know, 477 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: in Harbaugh's case, they have the most creative offense, the 478 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: most creative defense, and he's the one that put it up, 479 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: you know, put it in charge. But in Channion's case, 480 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: what team has overcome more adversity in terms of injuries 481 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: and been competing every week? Even their three losses were 482 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: all you know, at the last second, he's done a good. 483 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: They don't have that outlier game or two where they 484 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: just didn't show up in every single week. Their team, 485 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: it's kind of the opposite of the m their team 486 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: seems to pick each other up. I'd be a little concerned. 487 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: The defense isn't nearly as dominant as it was early 488 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: in the year, but they still have the personnel there 489 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: where you think that with the right matchup and in 490 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: the playoffs that they're certainly like last night, when I 491 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,360 Speaker 1: see him healthy, When I'm watching this fort defense, I'm 492 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: always thinking their defense is going to make a play, 493 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: and they did, and they did make a couple. I 494 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: feel like the arrow has been pouring up on Girly 495 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: in the second half, and I know, due to his contract, 496 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: would be very hard to get out from under it. 497 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: Would they be that desperate, uh to lose him. I 498 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: know he didn't have a big yardage day in this game, 499 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: but I don't know. He has been moving better in 500 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: the second half. I guess maybe they're looking for a 501 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 1: fresh start. Maybe we're in that A lot of changes 502 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 1: could be coming to the I mean in Mike Silver 503 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: noted it, but you know this is they put themselves 504 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: in a kind of win now mode where they're not 505 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: winning now and they have no draft picks coming up. 506 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 1: You know, you there are some questionable transactions and moves 507 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: attached to that front office Silver's column, which was very good. 508 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,479 Speaker 1: Made it seem like McVeigh was more pressing for more 509 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: changes after this loss than the Super Bowl loss that 510 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 1: he took this one harder. All right, let's check in 511 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: on the early game on Saturday. Empty backfield now for 512 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 1: Janis Winston. Here's the snap Winston quick throwing. That's our 513 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: sept that at the forty yard line to Leila die 514 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: with the pick. The Texans have the ball at thet 515 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: with one seven left and the Buffs with all the 516 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: one time out. Mark Vandermere with the call for the Texas. 517 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: Here we go. Oh all that Texas copland fallow that 518 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: Texas fall that Texans? Did you miss this last week? Mark? Totally? Yeah? 519 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: Bring me the girl, sacrifice her to the great piece, 520 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: Miss Mark those smooth? Why am I the last person 521 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: remaining in that graphic? That's how we'd be in real life? Huh. 522 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: The Texans force five turnovers Robbie returns return. The Texans 523 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: were the recipient of five turnovers, four from the quarterback 524 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston, including a pick six. The six pick six 525 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: by Winston, tying an NFL record, And yes, that interception 526 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: you heard basically put the Bucks in a body bag 527 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: Texans win clinching the a f C South for the 528 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: fourth time in five years. Mark, we had an idea 529 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: that the Houston Dbs could have some opportunity with Winston 530 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: missing his top two receivers, and that's exactly how it 531 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 1: played out. What a roller coaster. I mean, the day 532 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 1: started with Ian Rapp report of NFL and they were 533 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: reporting that the Bucks intend to bring Winston back based 534 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 1: on this hot month, that he's had leaked that out 535 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 1: until after week seventeen, that's the last that's well, yeah, 536 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: the timing, you know, and then hours later that this 537 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: stat absolutely is fascinating to me that we when we 538 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,439 Speaker 1: went to to London and we saw Jamis Winston against 539 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: the Panthers throw five interceptions. That announcing booth included Rich 540 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: eisen and he did the game yesterday long Joe Thomas 541 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: in his first day as an announcer, Joe Thomas all 542 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: insane opening fifteen or twenty minutes. But Rich Eysen lead 543 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: booths have now witnessed nine Jamis Winston interceptions in the 544 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 1: course of two games. I mean, and I will say 545 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: this about the Bucks though, and watching this at home. 546 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: It made me just love Saturday football just I never 547 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 1: this would have been one I would have caught on 548 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: game pass and condensed late. But the way that it 549 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 1: unfolded and it was finally you get that Tampa Bay 550 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: field under clouds and it looks glorious. Forget that hideous 551 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay son. But I mean, the Bucks to me 552 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 1: struck me as very resilient because a number of calls, 553 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: you could point to a number of calls that went 554 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: against them that were seemed totally ridiculously unfair. And Bruce Arians, 555 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: I thought was gonna maybe get booted from this game 556 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: at one point because he was red hot, furious with 557 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: the officials, and there was a moment where an officially 558 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: came over to circle back in and kind of explain 559 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: the latest debacle, and you could sort of see Arians saying, 560 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: get the f out of here. I mean, his face matches, 561 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: his red hat and his red polo head does stack 562 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 1: it at the stage in his life. I worry about 563 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: the man's health. I heat, but he had a reason 564 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: to be hot. And you know the Texans, the Bucks 565 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: run defense has been lights out for a long time, 566 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: and they they absolutely smothered what Houston tried to do 567 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 1: on the ground two point six yards per carry Deshaun Watson. 568 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: You know, they lost will Fuller, and I think that 569 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 1: seems to happen every week to them, and then they're 570 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 1: passing game. Never really I thought God unhooked. For the 571 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: most part, they put it to Houston. I thought this 572 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 1: game was gonna go Tampa Bay's way for a while 573 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 1: because it's one of those things where it was started 574 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,959 Speaker 1: so ugly for Winston and the rest, and then they 575 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: still were only down like ten three and hanging around 576 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: in the in the the Texans and they're and up 577 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: and down team were refusing to put them away. But 578 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: you know, Winston did what he does at the end. 579 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: Did feel that way like this was a game that 580 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: Houston to let get away and they would it would 581 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: destroy them, and but it didn't because to the Texans credit, 582 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: they do find a way usually and they have they 583 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: have their hiccups every every so often, but they are 584 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: they they do a good job closing games out. But 585 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: the same time, one of my big takeaways from the 586 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: game was, uh, that they're in trouble again because and 587 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 1: I thought with the will Fuller injury, it's another soft 588 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: tissue injury. This time it's a groin and uh, it 589 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: doesn't look good. And Bill O'Brien after the game, he 590 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: was fairly blunt in his assessment, but he's saying what 591 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,719 Speaker 1: everybody else was thinking. You can understand why frustration has 592 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: set in. Here's the quote. He's a great guy and 593 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: I love coaching him, but it is hard for him 594 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: to stay healthy. That's the bottom line. And we you 595 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: there's put tons of next gen stats and anywhere you 596 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: look that will point out how much better this offense 597 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: has been with Fuller on the field. But it's almost 598 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: gotten to the point where you just have to assume 599 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: he's not on the field, and that's something that they're 600 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: gonna have to look to address in the office. That's 601 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: why that Kenny Stills edition by B O B makes 602 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: him again that those early season trades made some sense 603 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: for the Texans. I mean, Jamis was when Jamis Winston 604 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: was missing his two top two receivers and he moved 605 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: the ball. And that's perhaps a little bit unfair because 606 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: he can throw calls into the wind when no consequence 607 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: is better. Lately, it's better than well, I don't know 608 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: about better. It's physically impossible It's physically impossible for Winston's 609 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: decision making process to ever factor in risk. I mean, 610 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 1: he could have thrown another couple in this game. And 611 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: we talked about he's going to this game. He was 612 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: six picks away from the hollowed Actually, no one's ever 613 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 1: established it yet. Thirty thirty club, thirty touchdowns, thirty picks. 614 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: He is now up to twenty eight. It seems like 615 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: a mortal lock that he's gonna set happen. He mentioned 616 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: after the game that his goal for the final game 617 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: would be to protect the ball and avoid turnovers, and 618 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 1: it's like you'd have to change you're wired. The first half, 619 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: to me, was the culmination of his entire career. It 620 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: was everything. It was them falling down seventeen three, him 621 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: having all of those turnovers right off the bat, then 622 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: getting it all the way four turnovers I believe in 623 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: the first half, yeah, and and three by him, but 624 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: getting it back, but to seventeen all at halftime, including 625 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: a terrific play right before the half to tie it, 626 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: and that they were leading in yard artage two eighty 627 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: one to eighty three. But it was a tie game, 628 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: and like that, that is that is the Bucks experience. 629 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: I mean, in this game, they held the Texans to 630 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: two yards. And that's not just because you know they're 631 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: giving short fields with all these turnovers and they get 632 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: extra possessions. It's because the Texans couldn't really move the ball, 633 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: throwing or passing. If there's one thing I think Bucks 634 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: fans should feel I think there's a few things Bucks 635 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,959 Speaker 1: fans should feel good about. One, this offense is working. 636 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: I mean, whether Winston should be the quarterback or not. 637 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 1: I think that's a that's a totally fair question. Maybe 638 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: he shouldn't be, and finding another one's not easy, but 639 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. You put someone else here with Bruce 640 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: arians and and Godwin and Evans, and I bet it's 641 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: gonna be pretty good too. And then the defense is 642 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: the main thing that surprised me. Their young secondary has 643 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: stepped up. I mean Murphy Bunton, Bunting, who you've talked 644 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: a lot about, West, who has played great, Um Carlton 645 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: Davis shut down DeAndre Hopkins pretty well. It's about five 646 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: weeks where their defense has played well. So I think 647 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: I'd feel pretty good about that. If you're a Bucks 648 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,959 Speaker 1: fan and Deshaun Watson was grabbing at his ankle at 649 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: multiple points in this game. We mentioned it earlier that 650 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: they can't really move too much in the playoffs. You're 651 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: gonna be the three seed or the four seed. There's 652 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: a lot, you know, you can make a case for 653 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: keeping one Watson on the on the bench and getting 654 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: him ready for a wild card matchup right, and they 655 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: would need a Chief's loss, uh even to have a 656 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: chance to move up. Uh. Anyhow in week seventeen, which 657 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 1: is is unlikely the way that the Chiefs are playing 658 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 1: in general. Uh So that it is a fair question. 659 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 1: I don't wonder, and they're they're very possibly going to 660 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 1: be hosting Buffalo Saturday afternoon. Uh in that first wild cards, 661 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: Buffalo is locked into the five seeds spoiler earlier, and 662 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: the Texans would most likely be the team hosting. What's 663 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: changed for me with the Texans is I don't believe 664 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: in their ceiling the same way I did six weeks ago. Then, 665 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: the idea of ceiling being if you play the way 666 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: they were capable of when they blew up the Patriots, 667 00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: that they're gonna do that three games in a row 668 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: in the play FC is a little deeper to or 669 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: it's better at the top. You know a lot of 670 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: times it's the Patriots maybe one other team. Now you've 671 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: got at least two or three teams that are going 672 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: to be tough to get through. Are there more Texans 673 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: games than Bengal games? On West of US? Now? West? 674 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: Has it reached that point Saturday early wild Card round 675 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: game that the Bengal was dominated throughout the early part 676 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,719 Speaker 1: of this decade? Well by Domino, you mean lose. They 677 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,479 Speaker 1: were dominated in the games, but dominated the time slot, right. 678 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 1: I think they started out with three years in a row. 679 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: But the Texans have caught up to them. And how 680 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: do you put the Bills at the as the early game? 681 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: They are prime time fifth fifth, the winning season out 682 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: of six for Bill O'Brien, another another division championship. It's 683 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: not nothing, you know what I mean. It's like coach, 684 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: it's not good job for coming around on this. David 685 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: calledwell the Jaguars GM is supposedly coming back. The Jaguars 686 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: have one season with more and five wins in his 687 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: seven years in charge, and he's keeping his job. And yeah, 688 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien, you know, I mean they went in the 689 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: division alright, Um, the Texans were not the only team 690 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: that clinched the division. On Saturday. Fourth and Gold stop 691 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: team the putsches coming, Alan running for his life, walts 692 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: it towards the back of the end zone, A man 693 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 1: there and it's knocked down in complete. J C. Jackson 694 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: breaks it up in the quarter of the end zone, 695 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: knocking it away from Cole Beasley and that should be 696 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 1: enough to give the New England Patriots Everie levinth straight 697 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: a f C East title. Westwood one with the call. 698 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,840 Speaker 1: I don't know why, but that's what we have. The 699 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: Patriots rule the a f C East for another year. 700 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,320 Speaker 1: Josh Allen marched the Bills inside the Patriots ten in 701 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: the final minutes, but the New England defense held se 702 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 1: clinches the division and keeps the Pats in line for 703 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: their unprecedented n consecutive playoff. By my own, um, listen, 704 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 1: here's the thing, this is my takeaway from this game. 705 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: If you're Patriots fan, you you finally have something to 706 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 1: feel good about now as you get closer to January. 707 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 1: Because I thought this was a really good day for 708 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: their offense. Moving the ball on the ground. Sony Michelle 709 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: really moved well. Uh had nearly a hundred yards, had 710 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: a hundred and forty three in total, and that ability 711 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: uh to keep the defense honest, really, I thought healthed Brady, 712 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 1: who was crisp and efficient and was accurate with this throw. 713 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: So the first time in sometimes and sometime and this 714 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: is not gonna be a world beating offense. But if 715 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: you take this version of New England's offense and combine 716 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 1: it with their defense, they absolutely and you give them 717 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: a short playoff field with a buy and home games, yes, 718 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: this is a team that can get back to the 719 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 1: super Bowl if they play like this. Now, can they 720 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 1: continue to string these games together? My concern is that 721 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: they can, and they've it on a recipe that they're 722 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 1: gonna ride hard here because it's not particularly interesting fun 723 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,280 Speaker 1: football to watch either. But that was my big takeaway 724 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 1: on the New England side, that they had something here 725 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 1: and will they be able to replicate it as we 726 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: go down into the playoffs. Guys made played for place 727 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 1: for Brady. I know there was a lot more that 728 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 1: went into it, and they certainly protected him pretty well 729 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: against you so so passed rush of the bills, but 730 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: guys made plays for him. Burke had made a contest 731 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 1: a couple of nice plays. Edelman made contested catch. You know, 732 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,320 Speaker 1: he leads the NFL and drops he made some tough catches. 733 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: Jacoby Myers made a contested catch, Mohammed Sanu made a 734 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: contested catch to keep a drive alive, and nikkil Harry 735 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: did It really felt to me like that was the 736 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: number one thing watching this game was these guys are 737 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: never that open, and in this game, Brady was more accurate, 738 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: but more importantly, the receivers made catches with guys on 739 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: them and it just kind of kept them on the field, 740 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: which is just gonna make everything look a lot better. 741 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,080 Speaker 1: And it was to me, easily their best game of 742 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: the year on bost You know, overall, I'm with you. 743 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: I have to wonder if quietly Bill Belichick has enjoyed 744 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,839 Speaker 1: this coaching experience and what he's got out of all 745 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: three phases. I mean, because it's special teams every week 746 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: and the defense is playing at magical levels of times, 747 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,359 Speaker 1: and I just I've never really I can't think. I'm 748 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 1: trying to think of another team that has had been 749 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 1: so hamstrung on offense and found a way opponent to 750 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,959 Speaker 1: opponent to squeeze the life out of whoever they're playing 751 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 1: and win in very weird, strange ways. In some cases 752 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 1: I got way hooked into this emotionally because I felt 753 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: myself just rooting, rooting hard for the Bills because I 754 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 1: just I know what, They're so imperfect, but I love 755 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,800 Speaker 1: them and I and I just wanted this city to 756 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: experience a win over New England because the Patriots, you know, 757 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 1: but I know that's another thing, is the Patriots. I've 758 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,880 Speaker 1: often totally expected, but at one point in every season, 759 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 1: I hate it. I hit that wall with the Patriots 760 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 1: where I'm done with it, and then they they'll they'll 761 00:37:55,600 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 1: pull me back. Mark Sessler. The Patriots advanced beyond quote 762 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: dumbly annoying close quote to open quote death ray ponderous 763 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: close quote levels. They're soft bellied fanatics, fanned and fed 764 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 1: grapes as if they'd accomplished literally a particle of tangible 765 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: progress in their own lives, floating in soft ecstasy. Foxborough 766 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: thicks vicarious goons, and this, uh, this led to some pushback. 767 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 1: I would say that that's fair. Who came out? Do 768 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 1: you get some bar stool goons? And I stopped looking 769 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: because it was it still local radio guys, the full 770 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 1: entree of New England and I and it's fair. I mean, 771 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: I put myself out there to be around Lee abused 772 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: by these people and that's what's that's what's unfolding at 773 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: the moment as we speak. I enjoyed it quite a bit. 774 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: My my thoughts on the Bills is the same one 775 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: that's kind of been holding for a while now. The 776 00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: Bills are good. It's their gift and it's their cur 777 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 1: curse there. And when you're good, you could beat terrible teams, 778 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,840 Speaker 1: and you can beat bad teams, you can beat mediocre teams, 779 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 1: and probably more often than not, this Bills team could 780 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: beat other good teams. But once that, once you hit 781 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: that next level. And I don't think the Patriots are 782 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: a great team, but Greg, this is my scientific analysis, 783 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 1: they're a very good team. Uh, they just don't get 784 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 1: it done, and we've seen that multiple times this season. Now, 785 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 1: the positive of this is one you're going to the 786 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: playoffs anyway, and that's gonna be fun too. With two 787 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 1: narrow losses to the Patriots this year, you know that 788 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 1: this gap is not wide any longer, and it's something 789 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 1: that you're trending in the right direction. It's something to 790 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: build on next year because everyone in the a f 791 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: C East. The number one goal now entering this season 792 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 1: is knocking the Patriots out of their division chair uh 793 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: and the Bills are closer than anybody else in that 794 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: division right now. They're just not there yet, and I 795 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,320 Speaker 1: think that's what's gonna haunt them when you get to January, 796 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 1: when you play better than good teams. But there's nothing 797 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,879 Speaker 1: to be ashamed of anything they've done this season. Good 798 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: for them for hanging tighten this game. We've been through 799 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 1: almost two years, two seasons of Josh Allen, and I 800 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 1: understand that he's often the problem there, but I don't 801 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,839 Speaker 1: get like this skepticism that he can't possibly develop into 802 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 1: a good quarterback. He's been confused by the Patriots twice now, 803 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,719 Speaker 1: and I know that's no small thing. But in the 804 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, when you throwout the game plan and asked 805 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:28,880 Speaker 1: the quarterback to win the game for you, and he 806 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 1: didn't come through, but that drive was really impressive. When 807 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: I watched his plane style athletic ability, he's the closest 808 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: I've seen to a young raw John Elway. He just 809 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 1: has so much similarity to him as far as athletic ability, 810 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 1: arm ability to make plays when it breaks down ability 811 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 1: to drag the team down the field, and I mean 812 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 1: nothing close in terms of accuracy. That's well, Greg, you 813 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: didn't watch John Elway when he was young, and he 814 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: was incredibly inaccurate, and he was just as raw as 815 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 1: John is. Josh Allen, you had some hideous box scores 816 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 1: back and then he was not a NFC type quarter 817 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 1: great throws. Look he did. They think the Patriots defense 818 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: played their normal game, a really good game. They didn't 819 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: force a single turnover, so that's abnormal. But the Bills 820 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: were in this game because Josh Allen had two just 821 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: gorgeous throws. The touchdown at the end of the first 822 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 1: half the Dowston Docks, which seemed like it would be 823 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: a killer considering how well the Patriots had played that 824 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: half to go and tiede uh and then the touchdown 825 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,280 Speaker 1: to John Brown where you know Brown eight up Stefan 826 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 1: Gilmour and and Devin mccordy. Those were unbelievable, and the 827 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,880 Speaker 1: fourth quarter drive was awesome too. The problem is he 828 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,400 Speaker 1: also had layups that he missed throughout the first He 829 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: had some layups in the first half that just ended 830 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: drives and then and you just don't the thing I 831 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 1: it's so it seems obvious. But the thing it took 832 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 1: me a weird long time to realize is like every 833 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,879 Speaker 1: NFL quarterback is gonna make completions if he's protected, every 834 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 1: single one. It's there, that's how good they are. But 835 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 1: Josh Allen does not all the time. And so that 836 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,800 Speaker 1: like the fact that he doesn't fit into that bucket 837 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 1: where I think, you know, even the Mark Sanchez or 838 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 1: whoever they're going to complete passes when they're protected like that. 839 00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: It just worries me. But he obviously has a lot 840 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 1: of other good qualities that makes up for it and 841 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 1: and puts them in this position and he's entertaining to watch. Yes, yes, yes, 842 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 1: I uh, I don't know this. Uh. The way that 843 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: game ended with Kyle van Noy getting two straight pressures 844 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: was to me kind of an under undersung. Part of 845 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 1: it is he beat their left tackle Dion Dawkins two 846 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,800 Speaker 1: straight times. He is their best pass russure. He is 847 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: their best player in the front seven. It was too 848 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,239 Speaker 1: bad he didn't make the Pro Bowl in my mind, 849 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 1: but that was kind of a classic wave. Their pass 850 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: rush stealed that game. They got him for the sack. 851 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: Allen and then they it was basically a jailbreak, it 852 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:43,640 Speaker 1: looked like in the last play of the game leading 853 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,320 Speaker 1: to the incompletion. So they have to beat the Dolphins 854 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: next week. That is essentially a you know, a playoff 855 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,280 Speaker 1: like game for them, whereas if they beat the Dolphins, 856 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:54,239 Speaker 1: then they advanced to the divisional round. I love they 857 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 1: don't see Brian Floors being involved in some ping pony 858 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: stuff that allows New England to fly right through Miami 859 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: like a break through a piece of paper. You got convinced. 860 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: I mean Ryan Fitzpatrick right exactly. I mean first laid 861 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: down for anyone, um. But they did play once earlier 862 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: in the year in the Patriots Dolphins. Plenty of time 863 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 1: laying down to the Bengals towards the end of that. 864 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 1: I was gonna say that save Dolpin's b lead earlier 865 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: they won it. Let's move back to Sunday, empty backfield. 866 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,479 Speaker 1: Jackson out of the shotgun. What's the old Blootz pressure coming? 867 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 1: Jackson hit Lobs to the ends all touchdown, Mark and 868 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: Andrews ad lived to perfection from Jackson to Andrews and 869 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 1: the Ravens converts in the final minute of the half. 870 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 1: The Hey will soon be in the barn. Jerry Sandusky 871 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: w B A L. Yes. Lamar Jackson threw three touchdown passes, 872 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 1: two to Mark Andrews late in the second quarter, and 873 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: he ran for another hundred yards. Lamar Jackson, this is 874 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: if there was any doubt, this kind of removed it. 875 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 1: He is the m v P. You'll find out for 876 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,760 Speaker 1: sure in about a month, but uh yes. The Ravens 877 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 1: clinched the top seed in the a f C Playoffs 878 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 1: for the first time in their history with their eleventh 879 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 1: straight win over the Browns. Mark Baltimore's offense took some 880 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 1: time to get going, but there's an inevitability and inevitability 881 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,560 Speaker 1: about this team. They just always get you in the end. 882 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,200 Speaker 1: They do, and they're the reason I asked you to 883 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 1: play that highlight was that it capped um or. It 884 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,359 Speaker 1: was right sandwiched in between a sequence that went from 885 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: the end of the first half early into the third 886 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,760 Speaker 1: that highlighted for me everything that's wrong with the Browns 887 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 1: and everything that's right with the Ravens, where basically all right, 888 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 1: there there's a the Browns are up six nothing and 889 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 1: had done a really nice job on defense of making 890 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 1: this a tough world for Lamar Jackson and the rest 891 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: of the offense, and they had another marketing and fumble, 892 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 1: which happened the first time they beat Baltimore. Things were 893 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: going their way and they their offense, you know, is 894 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 1: has issues Cleveland, but they basically so the Ravens go 895 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: on what is a very quick to place sixty three 896 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: yard touchdown march, all right, takes about a minute. The 897 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: brown march. Yes, I don't know if that's a march. 898 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 1: You're just like basically just threw a rope for a touchdown. 899 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,399 Speaker 1: The Browns get the ball back and they're down seven six. 900 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: You've got to find a way to get out of 901 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,719 Speaker 1: that half before just stop the bleeding, get out of 902 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 1: that half, because you're you're kicking off to Baltimore. So 903 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,400 Speaker 1: what do they do. They fire off a string of 904 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 1: passes there, there's three and out in the in their drive, 905 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: takes twenty three seconds. You give the ball right back 906 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 1: to Baltimore on a short field and that just happened 907 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,359 Speaker 1: the highlights. So suddenly it's fourteen six, you come out 908 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,480 Speaker 1: of half, you kick the ball back to Baltimore. They 909 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: ripped down the field on thirteen play sixty nine yards, 910 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: taking up eight minutes nearly of the set of the 911 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 1: third right, that's a march and they're up twenty one six, 912 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 1: and you know the game is over, and the game 913 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:49,400 Speaker 1: is over because they are well coached, They understand situational awareness. 914 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 1: They understand how to deal with the final two or 915 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 1: three minutes of a half and maximize it and use 916 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 1: it in a way that destroys their opponent. In Cleveland 917 00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: is absolutely the opposite end of the spectrum. They looked lost, 918 00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 1: completely lost. You have by the end of this game, 919 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham screaming at Freddy Kitchens on the sideline. Now 920 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 1: they said later because this was the Browns climb back 921 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 1: in and went for an early two point conversion when 922 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 1: they would have needed another touchdown to tie, and you 923 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 1: know you got, you got Baker Mayfield throwing to Ricky 924 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 1: Seals Jones where Odell Beckham is basically that Tony Romol 925 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: thought he was annoyed at Freddie Kitchens for saying, why 926 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 1: isn't the ball obviously going to me? Why why is 927 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,400 Speaker 1: not the whole play on our season is on the 928 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,399 Speaker 1: line with a very you know, very little oxygen left, 929 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 1: and we're throwing to Ricky Seals Jones and you know 930 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: that after the game, Freddy Kitchen said, no, it was 931 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,799 Speaker 1: Odell upset about the Ravens and the way the Ravens were, 932 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 1: you know, playing physical with him. I I just don't 933 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 1: know what I buy at this point, because every game 934 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: to me is a reflection of a coaching staff and 935 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,799 Speaker 1: an overall an organization that had spent the whole year 936 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:50,880 Speaker 1: cannot get out of their own way. And today was 937 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 1: against your mortal enemy, the Baltimore Ravens, the team ripped 938 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 1: from you and the team that's going on to have 939 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 1: the success that you should have if you were a 940 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 1: functional organization. The Brown cannot make it happen. And it 941 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 1: was one of the more depressing losses. And you have 942 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:09,400 Speaker 1: to there it is well, it is inexcusable. For fifteen weeks, 943 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 1: Mark and what has been since I known him, the 944 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 1: most disappointing Brown season. Given how exciting everything was heading 945 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 1: into it, Mark for fifteen weeks was in pretty good 946 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: shape in the newsroom, did not really get upset, did 947 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,839 Speaker 1: not get very annoyed. Uh kind of un it as 948 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: in its own level of inevitability. But for some reason 949 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 1: this game is the one that got you the maybe 950 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,400 Speaker 1: not the storm was so quiet as if to be 951 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 1: non existent for fifteen weeks, but today the quiet storm raged. 952 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:44,400 Speaker 1: Well they've squeezed and I you know, Brown's fans, I'm 953 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,359 Speaker 1: sure at this point are just they find new ways 954 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,600 Speaker 1: to to author terrible seasons. And this this just is 955 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 1: any team where you don't add up to the talent 956 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: of your roster. We talked about it with the Cowboys. 957 00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 1: It's just inexcusable. And you know, by all accounts we 958 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 1: met with Freddy Kitchens. I like the guy, seems like 959 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 1: a good guy. It's not a personal thing. But I 960 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,320 Speaker 1: don't know how you argue that you bring the staff 961 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 1: back for next season. There's just no way. And it's 962 00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 1: another one and done scenario. It's embarrassing, but you have 963 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 1: to hope you can get someone in here that can 964 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,399 Speaker 1: work with this locker room. Mark Ingram left this game 965 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,840 Speaker 1: with a injury of some kind. Is it anything to 966 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 1: worry about? I you know, he at one point he 967 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 1: was hurt. Lamar Jackson was hobbling around, Mark Andrews was 968 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 1: hoppling around, and I just they need they need rest. 969 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,279 Speaker 1: I don't know what the deal with and Adam Scheff 970 00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:32,320 Speaker 1: to report it. It's a strain, right, and there's no 971 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 1: structural issues or anything like that. So it's it sounds 972 00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: like I just you went, you might not see him 973 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:38,239 Speaker 1: next week when they play the Steelers, right, and then 974 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,400 Speaker 1: that's three weeks off for them, which is tricky. But 975 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 1: they're wrapping up, you know, one of the great regular seasons, uh, 976 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: the last twenty thirty years. That's how good this Ravens 977 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 1: team is that I'm not surprised that the Ravens defense 978 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 1: kind of choked out this Brown's offense eventually, because that's 979 00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 1: what's changed the most most since they met in Week four. 980 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,880 Speaker 1: I'm just like amazed looking at Lamar Jackson going over 981 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:04,759 Speaker 1: a hundred yards again rushing and it's not even a 982 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 1: big deal anymore that he ran for a hundred and 983 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 1: seventy six times this year for over twelve hundred yards, 984 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:15,520 Speaker 1: averaging you know, almost seven yards per carry, assuming he 985 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,840 Speaker 1: threw for thirty six touchdowns too. By the way that 986 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 1: I know, we're just like used to it at this point, 987 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 1: because but to think of if anyone had thought that 988 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:27,239 Speaker 1: this was possible in August, even his biggest fans like that, 989 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:31,719 Speaker 1: that Lamar Jackson, of all these guys, who was drafted right, 990 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 1: is the m V m v P and m v 991 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 1: P playing football And it's just, I don't know, it's 992 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:40,800 Speaker 1: it's it's amazing. In the time we've done this podcast, 993 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 1: we've had some really incredible individual season in individual seasons 994 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:50,080 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Adrian Peterson, Patrick Mahomes last year, 995 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,839 Speaker 1: but this one just feels unique. It's like we've never 996 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 1: seen anything like that. And it's the way the whole 997 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 1: organization bought into this, where you know, when the entire 998 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:00,400 Speaker 1: rest of the NFL doubted that it be done and 999 00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 1: it was, oh, it's a nice it's five or six 1000 00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 1: games stretch last year and then they were figured out 1001 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: in the playoffs and it's not gonna work. And it's like, no, 1002 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 1: everyone's rusty. That playoff loss where he looked, you know, 1003 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:12,800 Speaker 1: so exposed for three and a half quarters, that was 1004 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 1: the last time we saw him before this happened. Uh, 1005 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 1: it's just remarkable what he's turned into in such a fast, 1006 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:22,360 Speaker 1: expedient man. And it's a team. He's the key and 1007 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 1: they built it all around him. But it is like 1008 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 1: his success and the m v P is a is 1009 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:30,239 Speaker 1: a is a team thing because he wouldn't be able 1010 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 1: to only throw the ball twenty five times or less 1011 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 1: in every game since weeks six unless their defense was 1012 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 1: playing that well, unless every you know the offensive line. 1013 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he's the key that makes them all look better, 1014 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,359 Speaker 1: and that's why he's the m v P. But it's 1015 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,520 Speaker 1: pretty remarkable that they've been able to keep with that 1016 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,640 Speaker 1: formula every single week. I think Baltimore is an underrated 1017 00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 1: place to have to go play, and they have home 1018 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:54,239 Speaker 1: field advantage. I I just don't know who's gonna take 1019 00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 1: him out at this point. We will see Greg what 1020 00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:58,279 Speaker 1: you care to guess whether John Horrible was going to 1021 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,719 Speaker 1: play r G three for at least court recorders next. 1022 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:03,839 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna play them, maybe the whole game, 1023 00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 1: because Garafolo did indicate earlier this week that they would 1024 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:11,279 Speaker 1: probably sit Lamar Jackson. So I wouldn't be surprised if 1025 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:13,759 Speaker 1: RG three starts, and I wouldn't be surprised if the 1026 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:17,440 Speaker 1: Ravens backups or at least, you know, you can't sit everyone. 1027 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if the Ravens backup beat the Steelers. 1028 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,920 Speaker 1: These we saw it in two thousand four. I remember 1029 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 1: when the Steelers back up it's the Steelers backups mostly too. 1030 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:29,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, right, that's what that's partly what I mean, Like, 1031 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 1: I think the Ravens backups with r G three can 1032 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 1: can have a good chance to beat Duck Hodges and 1033 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 1: whoever the Steelers are lining up. I wouldn't say that 1034 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 1: that's uh just a game that you chalk up. I 1035 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 1: just remember so distinctly that two thousand and four Steelers team, 1036 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:46,320 Speaker 1: which was great, who had the one seed, sat everyone 1037 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: they played, Willie Parker and their backups in in week seventeen, 1038 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 1: Bills fans got knocked out of the playoffs with a 1039 00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 1: home game thinking that they're gonna beat their backups. I 1040 00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:57,400 Speaker 1: don't know this Ravens organizations specially. Thing i'd say is 1041 00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,279 Speaker 1: whenever RG three has been in there, I mean they 1042 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:03,280 Speaker 1: be as like it falls that offense falls into unwatched. 1043 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 1: What does it matter? Doesn't It don't matter for the Steelers. 1044 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,360 Speaker 1: But yeah, um, alright, we're gonna get to the Steelers 1045 00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:13,400 Speaker 1: in a second. But there was another upset, uh to 1046 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 1: dig into this in the NFC three receivers in the 1047 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,799 Speaker 1: game shotguns that Honey's gonna throw looking to his left, 1048 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,440 Speaker 1: and trouble gets Hip breaks out of there, rolling right 1049 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 1: to the twenty, to the fifteen, cuts back to the 1050 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:27,399 Speaker 1: left of its end. He's at the five and he's 1051 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 1: got the first down as he dives to the three 1052 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:35,440 Speaker 1: yard line. Oh my goodness. I mean you literally had 1053 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,880 Speaker 1: a Seahawk with his arms around his waist in the pocket. 1054 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 1: Somehow he got out of that and then an incredible 1055 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 1: run by seven. Um Man, I want Ron Wolfie at 1056 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:52,319 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving dinner next year, thanks Christmas dinner. Simply invite him. 1057 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure, I'm sure he would do that for Ron 1058 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:56,759 Speaker 1: Wilfy and Dave Pass on the play by play for 1059 00:52:56,800 --> 00:53:00,960 Speaker 1: the Cardinals radio network. Guess Brad Hunley remember him. He 1060 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 1: replaced an injured Kyler Murray, and he gave the Seahawks 1061 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:08,080 Speaker 1: fits on defense, making big plays to close out a 1062 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:14,920 Speaker 1: rather surprising upset win over the Seahawks in the Clank Greg. 1063 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:17,880 Speaker 1: The Seahawks can still win the NFC West with a 1064 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 1: win next week against the Niners. But you know, this 1065 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 1: loss and some crushing injury news kind of puts the 1066 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 1: whole their whole season in a different category. Now, no 1067 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 1: team had a worst day. They lost Dwayne Brown. Uh, 1068 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:33,879 Speaker 1: you know, before the game even started. And it turns 1069 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,320 Speaker 1: out he's gonna need a knee surgery. That's their left tackle, 1070 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,279 Speaker 1: Mikey Yapotty, their guard went in and out of this game, 1071 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 1: missed most of the first half. Chris Carson is expected 1072 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 1: to miss the rest of the season after supper hip injury. 1073 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 1: C J. Prosise, who came in as Carson's backup, also 1074 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:56,000 Speaker 1: got hurt and will be out UH four week seven 1075 00:53:57,080 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 1: is already out, broke his arm. And who's the defensive 1076 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 1: player that I'm now forgetting got hurt. We'll get back 1077 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:06,959 Speaker 1: to Jenavion Clowney didn't play in this game and maybe 1078 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 1: he'll return in that will help. And they could have 1079 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 1: used him because even before all these injuries kept cascading, 1080 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: the Seahawks defense had nor You always some relative. He's 1081 00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:25,239 Speaker 1: him and Jadaveon Clowney although you met each other once 1082 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:30,640 Speaker 1: and you interviewed him with this guy for all the 1083 00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:34,800 Speaker 1: talking points. Is never on the field, Well, factually that couldn't. 1084 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: That's totally wrong. Until this year. He played a higher 1085 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 1: percentage of snaps over the last three years and literally 1086 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 1: almost any this year. He he's always playing through and 1087 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:48,359 Speaker 1: getting the way of our muck raking journalists this year, 1088 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:51,399 Speaker 1: He's definitely been off and on and that has hurt 1089 00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:57,200 Speaker 1: them big time. Uh. It's remarkable and yet not totally 1090 00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:00,800 Speaker 1: shocking to see their defense I go against the Cardinals. 1091 00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 1: The bigger surprise was that Russell Wilson could not come 1092 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:08,680 Speaker 1: up with anything offensively throughout the entire day, even before 1093 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:11,240 Speaker 1: these injuries were happening. They had a first drive touchdown, 1094 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:14,319 Speaker 1: and then after that they couldn't get anything gone. I mean, 1095 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 1: I mean, you looked at this, DK Metcalf targeted once 1096 00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 1: a drop and that was it. And then Tyler Lockett, 1097 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,880 Speaker 1: a guy we were just singing the praises of heading 1098 00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:26,959 Speaker 1: into this game, um because he was healthy and making 1099 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,800 Speaker 1: plays again, he shows up in this game and he 1100 00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:33,280 Speaker 1: finishes with one catch up for twelve yards on eight targets. 1101 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:37,480 Speaker 1: This is not what we expected ever from the Seahawks offense. 1102 00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:39,880 Speaker 1: And I know this doesn't as I laid out at 1103 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 1: the top of this, this does not end their season 1104 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,719 Speaker 1: this loss, but it's just something seemed very wrong with 1105 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:50,800 Speaker 1: how many people out there lost their fantasy championships today 1106 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 1: and probably maybe even't get there because of what's happened 1107 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 1: to Chris Carson. And then how many one because they 1108 00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 1: had Kenyan Drake, who has six touchdowns in two weeks 1109 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,879 Speaker 1: and went off for a hundred and sixty six yards, stayed, 1110 00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:05,440 Speaker 1: turning David Johnson once again into a raging afterthought. Two 1111 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,040 Speaker 1: carries for three yards for David Johnson, who was once 1112 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:10,239 Speaker 1: viewed as like the future of the position, and the 1113 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake's a free agent, so they have to decide 1114 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:14,879 Speaker 1: whether to pay him and cut David Johnson, or pay 1115 00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:17,240 Speaker 1: both or what's going well, they're gonna cut. They're definitely 1116 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,279 Speaker 1: cut David Johnson. And they did say they want to 1117 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:21,960 Speaker 1: sign Drake. His price tag went up, but he fits 1118 00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 1: that offense. I give Cliff Kings very so much credit 1119 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,239 Speaker 1: and it was almost fitting that his best moment as 1120 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,000 Speaker 1: a coach, a rookie coach was with Brent Hunley on 1121 00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 1: the field running plays. The fact that they were able 1122 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:35,840 Speaker 1: to still have a decent running game, and some of 1123 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 1: it was just improvised Hunley scrambling, but some of it 1124 00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 1: was Kenyan Drake's runs that were very creative that even 1125 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 1: with Hunley at quarterback, they were able to move the ball. 1126 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,399 Speaker 1: The Seahawks did come back, you know, they were down 1127 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 1: twenty seven. They cut it to it's ten minutes left. 1128 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 1: The clink is going crazy, and you think, Okay, they're 1129 00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:53,840 Speaker 1: gonna come back and win this game. That's what they do. 1130 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 1: And then the Hunley led Cardinals go on a nine play, 1131 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,720 Speaker 1: seventy eight yard, five and a half a minute touchdown 1132 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:02,520 Speaker 1: drive to in the game. That was the most surprising 1133 00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:05,160 Speaker 1: thing I saw a day. Chandler Jones four sacks, two 1134 00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: forced fumbles now Joinsbert Mathis as the only players in 1135 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:12,960 Speaker 1: history with nineteen sacks and eight four forced fumbles in 1136 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:16,160 Speaker 1: a season that includes guys like Deacon Jones before the 1137 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:20,280 Speaker 1: sack was invented. Per Pro Football Journal, which has researched 1138 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:24,320 Speaker 1: all the back from the ProFootball Journal from that, he's 1139 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:27,800 Speaker 1: got to be in the year too, Okay, And I 1140 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:29,800 Speaker 1: get that he's been one of the most underrated guys. 1141 00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 1: He should probably be an All Pro. But take a 1142 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:36,000 Speaker 1: game like today going against the backup left tackle Jamarco Jones, 1143 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:38,240 Speaker 1: and like, I want to see you do it against 1144 00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 1: the best left tackles the league. Here's one thing I 1145 00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:43,080 Speaker 1: love about Chandler Jones. One of those forced fumbles was 1146 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 1: him running seventeen yards down the field and knock the 1147 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:47,880 Speaker 1: ball out of David Moore, and that was one of 1148 00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 1: the things I loved watching him when he was on 1149 00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,959 Speaker 1: the Patriots. He is just a man on fire every 1150 00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:55,560 Speaker 1: play in terms of his hustle, and that's sometimes why 1151 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:58,920 Speaker 1: he gets these like clean up coverage sacks. So credit 1152 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 1: to him. But I did want to quickly mentioned how 1153 00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 1: poor Pete Carroll handled this game. In my mind, it 1154 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 1: was just it was just it was a Pete Carroll game. 1155 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 1: Fans know what I'm now, there's how I've done it. 1156 00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:16,640 Speaker 1: Sahawks corner. Now it's his turn to get all right third, 1157 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 1: third and one, Russell Wilson throws the ball d p's 1158 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 1: at around the forty I think he past the forty 1159 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:26,040 Speaker 1: yard line early in the game. He ends up throwing 1160 00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 1: it deep taking a shot on the third and one. 1161 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:29,960 Speaker 1: He said after the game it's because he assumed they 1162 00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 1: were going to go for it on fourth and one, 1163 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:34,520 Speaker 1: but nope. He's got Pete Carroll as as a coach, 1164 00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,160 Speaker 1: he should know better. Not only did they not go 1165 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:38,880 Speaker 1: for it, they punted the ball instead of kicking a 1166 00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:41,840 Speaker 1: fifty one attempting a fifty one yard field goal later 1167 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:44,640 Speaker 1: in the game. Jason Meyer's the same kicker hit a 1168 00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 1: fifty two yard or with room to spare to that 1169 00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:51,000 Speaker 1: same end in the in the in the fourth quarter, Uh, 1170 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,920 Speaker 1: they had a fourth and three, I believe in the 1171 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 1: red zone where they decided to kick a field goal 1172 00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:58,000 Speaker 1: to make it twenty to ten. So they're trying to 1173 00:58:58,040 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 1: catch up with field goals instead of going for it 1174 00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 1: on four down. And then there's also a third and 1175 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 1: three before one of these field goes where you hand 1176 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 1: it off to Travis Holmes. That's the one that got 1177 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:08,280 Speaker 1: me fourth string running back. You're on your fourth string 1178 00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 1: running back and you're still trying to establish the run. 1179 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 1: And look that their offensive line can't protect Russell Wilson. 1180 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:15,680 Speaker 1: So it's kind of your damned if you do, damned 1181 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:18,080 Speaker 1: if you don't. But give russ a chance. All right, 1182 00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:23,080 Speaker 1: that's fair. Do you feel better? Uh? And Chandler Jones 1183 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 1: nineteen sacks the record quote unquote twenty two and a half. 1184 00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 1: Michael Strahan, give that record. It's dignity back. It was 1185 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 1: stolen when Brett Farbs slid at Michael Strahan's feet on 1186 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:39,920 Speaker 1: the final game in the two thousand one season. A 1187 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:43,760 Speaker 1: disgrace well, taking it away from Jet's great mark Eston. 1188 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,080 Speaker 1: Now give it. It's dignity back. And what does he 1189 00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:50,240 Speaker 1: need nineteen somebody to do the math? Another game like today, 1190 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 1: Another game like today that's against Jared Goff and the Rams, 1191 00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:56,560 Speaker 1: whose offensive line is not exactly a shining star. Get 1192 00:59:56,640 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 1: that record. It's dignity back, the further get away from 1193 01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:03,160 Speaker 1: the Brett five. It's really funny he did that. If 1194 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:06,720 Speaker 1: you think about it, like at that he would liked 1195 01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 1: straight hand that much, and then he was just like 1196 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 1: collegial enough. That is a much revisioned his history. Here, 1197 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 1: isn't it a bootleg? He turns around his straight hands 1198 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 1: in his face, so he decides to take a plan. 1199 01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:20,160 Speaker 1: It was. It was late in the game and the Packers, 1200 01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 1: I believe, had it sewed away, and it was pretty 1201 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:27,080 Speaker 1: clear that they set it up. Himself said he basically said, 1202 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:29,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna roll this way and set it up. Because 1203 01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 1: there he's admitted that. Yeah, I mean, it's it's a 1204 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 1: disgrace what happened, all right, Kyler Murray. I didn't even meant, 1205 01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,200 Speaker 1: you know, in a hamstring injury. They probably he made 1206 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:41,760 Speaker 1: a couple of good plays before he left, but you 1207 01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:44,720 Speaker 1: would think, well, we'll see he heard his hamstring and 1208 01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:46,440 Speaker 1: who starting it running back for the Seahawks in the 1209 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 1: biggest game of the season. Travis Homer. Yeah, d run 1210 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,400 Speaker 1: his deep and we're not in Mark Yastino's record. Who 1211 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:55,400 Speaker 1: was the chest bothers me a little bit. My franchise 1212 01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 1: has nothing. Kristen Michael and speed Uh or well they 1213 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 1: richardson Mark Well they also just they worked out Robert 1214 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 1: Turban last week's all right? The other big upset on 1215 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 1: Sunday four and seven. Hodges in the shotgun pre Receiprens 1216 01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 1: Jets putting in all out plits. He funds the snuff. 1217 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 1: Carls went up the liddle the field. It's inlet. They 1218 01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 1: missed to Smith season. Greg Williams brought the house. Then 1219 01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:24,280 Speaker 1: the Jets get the stop on downs and it will 1220 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:28,440 Speaker 1: be victory formation for New York. Yeah, Bob Wish shoes 1221 01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:31,720 Speaker 1: and with the call the Jets radio network. Uh, the Steelers, 1222 01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:34,040 Speaker 1: they're not taking care of their own business. Pittsburgh's path 1223 01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:37,560 Speaker 1: to the playoff playoffs got a lot murkier after sixteen 1224 01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 1: ten loss to the Jets at the Meadowlands. This was 1225 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 1: a game that featured a Duck Hodges benching a Mason's 1226 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:47,840 Speaker 1: and Rudolph injury, a Duck Hodges return, but no Steelers 1227 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:51,120 Speaker 1: magic on offense. It's a trend West and he's all 1228 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:55,360 Speaker 1: important December games. What has changed for this Pittsburgh offense 1229 01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:58,440 Speaker 1: from where they were three weeks ago when everybody was 1230 01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:02,439 Speaker 1: feeling good, to where they are now. I think luck 1231 01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 1: like Duck Hodges was always a little over his head 1232 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:07,920 Speaker 1: that he wasn't good enough to be playing. I mean, 1233 01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: he was your boy, though anyone who wasn't Mason Rudolph 1234 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:14,720 Speaker 1: was my boy. I think this is being way misery representative. 1235 01:02:14,840 --> 01:02:18,080 Speaker 1: Every time, every time I talked about Duck Hodges, I said, 1236 01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:21,400 Speaker 1: he has obvious limitations, doesn't have an NFL arm, and 1237 01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 1: it's an undrafted free agent rookie. Well you said he 1238 01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 1: was clearly you know, the best quarterback is sitting on 1239 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 1: the bench and unfre Unfortunately, this was a the last 1240 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:34,520 Speaker 1: two weeks have been a Mason Rudolph. You know, like performances, 1241 01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:36,920 Speaker 1: I mean seventeen throws for eighty four yards and two 1242 01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:39,520 Speaker 1: picks of this game, Well, there was an eight possession 1243 01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 1: sequence from the end of last game through the beginning 1244 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 1: of this game where he threw five interceptions and had 1245 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 1: three three and ounce and there went the Steelers season. 1246 01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:50,680 Speaker 1: They have they they have gone seven and three in 1247 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 1: their last ten games and then three losses. They've averaged 1248 01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:56,960 Speaker 1: nine points. And I would say Hodges's credit, he he 1249 01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:59,480 Speaker 1: threw two early picks which led to the benching. He 1250 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:02,479 Speaker 1: comes in on that last drive. He throws a pretty 1251 01:03:02,600 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 1: nice ball to James Washington in the end zone on 1252 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,880 Speaker 1: third down, and Marcus May, who had a nice game 1253 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 1: for the Jets, did a really nice job and one 1254 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,600 Speaker 1: on one coverage with Greig Williams, he was aggressive. He 1255 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:14,840 Speaker 1: went after him twice in a row, and then on 1256 01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 1: fourth down a snap that he drops. It wasn't a 1257 01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 1: great snap, but Hodges probably should have caught it on 1258 01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:21,520 Speaker 1: a fly. But he even recovered enough to give give 1259 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 1: Juju Juju Smith Schuster a chance. And this just has 1260 01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:27,280 Speaker 1: not been Jujus year. He didn't even really come close 1261 01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:30,800 Speaker 1: to it. But uh so, Hodges didn't totally flame out 1262 01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 1: in the last possession like he did the previous week. 1263 01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:35,160 Speaker 1: But at the same time, West and you talked about this, 1264 01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:39,080 Speaker 1: uh downstairs earlier. It's just another reminded of the Steelers 1265 01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,920 Speaker 1: are paying for their sins of never finding a real 1266 01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 1: capable person to put behind Big Ben. Well, every team 1267 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 1: whips on some guys. But whereas the Patriots find at 1268 01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:51,000 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo and the Jacoby percent, the Steelers have had 1269 01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:54,720 Speaker 1: Landry Jones, Josh Dobbs who they traded away, Mason Rudolph 1270 01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:57,680 Speaker 1: who flamed out and they had to turn I mean, 1271 01:03:57,720 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 1: how many times have you ever seen a playoff contender 1272 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:02,960 Speaker 1: play an undrafted rookie at quarterback? No, but they they 1273 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:06,080 Speaker 1: loved Mason Rudolph in the what you couldn't see him 1274 01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:08,320 Speaker 1: in real games, but the reports on him, whether the 1275 01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:12,080 Speaker 1: coaching staff was smitten with his you know, traits and abilities, 1276 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:13,720 Speaker 1: and then you get them in real life games and 1277 01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:15,720 Speaker 1: you realize and like we were, we are a week 1278 01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,640 Speaker 1: away very possibly having an eight and eight team in 1279 01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:21,000 Speaker 1: the a f C make the playoffs. And there are 1280 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:23,520 Speaker 1: put the Steelers in that flock of clubs that have 1281 01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:25,240 Speaker 1: to look back on a game like today, in a 1282 01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:27,960 Speaker 1: series of games that just like, could any of these 1283 01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:30,920 Speaker 1: teams get hot and get it get and make it happen? 1284 01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:33,760 Speaker 1: I mean, this is there's any scenario happening at the end, right. 1285 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:37,360 Speaker 1: I think if you're the Chiefs, who at least right 1286 01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 1: now are holding the three seed. You look at the 1287 01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:45,600 Speaker 1: differences in danger compared between Tennessee and anyone else that 1288 01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 1: could get the sixth seed, which at this point is 1289 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:50,400 Speaker 1: just Pittsburgh and Oakland. Who who will get to and 1290 01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:53,480 Speaker 1: to me, the Titans are a very dangerous team, uh 1291 01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: if they get in as the sixth seed, and right 1292 01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 1: now they are in position to do that, whereas Pittsburgh 1293 01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:01,240 Speaker 1: and certainly Oakland would be a list. Well, and Dan, 1294 01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:03,720 Speaker 1: you talked about how Duck didn't he didn't do so 1295 01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:06,400 Speaker 1: badly on that final drive, but after they put him 1296 01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 1: back in and even before they put him back and 1297 01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:10,920 Speaker 1: he played scared too too much in this game, Dan, 1298 01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:13,040 Speaker 1: he got rid of the ball too quickly. He was 1299 01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:15,720 Speaker 1: afraid of pressure. He played scared. I saw your tweet 1300 01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:18,960 Speaker 1: and it reminds me just basically everything happen in Cleveland 1301 01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:22,280 Speaker 1: where uh there was the report that the locker room 1302 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:25,160 Speaker 1: is down on Gaze for what his tough guy acting 1303 01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:27,800 Speaker 1: that they've been responding more to Greg Williams and I 1304 01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 1: feel like, you know, there are predictions that the two 1305 01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:31,320 Speaker 1: of them could but heads not that they are, But 1306 01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 1: does it change the way I mean, are were probably 1307 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 1: gonna say. My point I was gonna make two before 1308 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 1: he moved on, was that Adam Gates is a profoundly 1309 01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 1: unpopular figure among Jets fans and perhaps inside his own building. 1310 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:47,960 Speaker 1: But to his credit, after that one and seven start, uh, 1311 01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:50,200 Speaker 1: they have a chance to go seven and nine if 1312 01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:52,960 Speaker 1: they win on Sunday, And that is nothing to celebrate, 1313 01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:55,840 Speaker 1: but that tells you that this team never quit on 1314 01:05:56,040 --> 01:05:59,880 Speaker 1: Gaze despite all the you know, setbacks and disappointment and 1315 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:03,120 Speaker 1: injuries and and some of the offensive play calling which 1316 01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:04,440 Speaker 1: has not been good, and it wasn't good in this 1317 01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:07,200 Speaker 1: game either after an early touchdown. And I just want 1318 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:10,000 Speaker 1: to throw one thing out there, Greg Williams, when you 1319 01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:13,360 Speaker 1: talk about assistant Coach of the Year discussions, he's not 1320 01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:16,760 Speaker 1: gonna get it. Nobody's ever gonna give Greg Williams any trophy. However, 1321 01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:19,320 Speaker 1: what he's been able to do, He's turned that Jets 1322 01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:24,360 Speaker 1: defense into a top ten unit. Uh, And the number 1323 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 1: of injuries that group has had and the lack of talent, 1324 01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:30,160 Speaker 1: what he's been able to scheme his way to really 1325 01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:32,680 Speaker 1: deserves some credit. Whether you like the guy or not, 1326 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:36,640 Speaker 1: the Jets defense has been good this year. And no, 1327 01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:39,040 Speaker 1: I want to go that far I want to go, 1328 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:42,640 Speaker 1: but we don't get on a New York City for it. 1329 01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:45,880 Speaker 1: But I don't know if he's gonna be back either, 1330 01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,280 Speaker 1: because you know, he's a guy that burns out quickly 1331 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:50,840 Speaker 1: behind the scenes as well. But he gets credit for 1332 01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:54,000 Speaker 1: that um t J Watt big force fumble in this game. 1333 01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:56,880 Speaker 1: Maybe he helps his defensive Player of the Year case. 1334 01:06:56,960 --> 01:06:59,040 Speaker 1: And then Mike Tomlin, who I never bought that he 1335 01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:00,440 Speaker 1: should have been in the coach of the ear race, 1336 01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:04,440 Speaker 1: but that's definitely over after the if you're not compared 1337 01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,120 Speaker 1: to John Harbaugh to me, I mean in the race, 1338 01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:09,080 Speaker 1: it could be right, but it's like that in what 1339 01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 1: in what the Ravens head coach is getting head coach? Well, 1340 01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:14,000 Speaker 1: you know I'm on board with that at this point. 1341 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:15,960 Speaker 1: If not for that t J watch strip sack, that 1342 01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:18,280 Speaker 1: Steelers probably finished the game with three points instead of ten. 1343 01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 1: That's fair. That's fair, dog, all right. Speaking of the Raiders, 1344 01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 1: can take this opening drive in their second half into 1345 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:31,480 Speaker 1: the back hits and zone touchdown Raiders opening from third quarter. 1346 01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 1: Staying alive, that's the theme today, and staying alive so 1347 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:41,920 Speaker 1: far all four other things that had to happen today happened. 1348 01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:44,160 Speaker 1: Did now the Raiders win this and they'll go to 1349 01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:47,360 Speaker 1: Denver with a chance to be the sixth seed in 1350 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 1: the a f C. He wasn't true. You can't say 1351 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:55,560 Speaker 1: that's not accurate, Friend, Musburger k CBS West. Before the 1352 01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:58,360 Speaker 1: show is on fire that people are plugged in on 1353 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:01,280 Speaker 1: this Raider's chances of making the play offs. Man, what 1354 01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:04,600 Speaker 1: does Saturday teach us? You want good teams because you'll 1355 01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:08,880 Speaker 1: get good football. You guys keep rooting for bad teams. 1356 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 1: Greg and I were discussing by the Raiders. Whoever does 1357 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,120 Speaker 1: get that playoff spot is they're not long for this 1358 01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:19,519 Speaker 1: world regardless. But anyway, Oakland Raiders, they keep their playoff 1359 01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:23,479 Speaker 1: hopes alive. Seventeen over the Chargers in front of a 1360 01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:26,519 Speaker 1: sea of silver and black at Dignity Health Sports Park. 1361 01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 1: What a mess the whole situation. Um Charges were going 1362 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:34,559 Speaker 1: with a silent count on offense because the road fans 1363 01:08:34,600 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 1: were so loud. Mark uh This stat from the great 1364 01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:40,639 Speaker 1: Neil Reynolds of Sky Sports over in London entering Sunday. 1365 01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:44,080 Speaker 1: The Raiders had a one and two chants of making 1366 01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 1: the playoffs. They'll wake up Monday with a one and 1367 01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 1: eight shot in week seventeen. Well, you know, I understand 1368 01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:54,800 Speaker 1: West's point that UH rooting for a team like this, 1369 01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 1: just pointing out that statistically they made a huge jump 1370 01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 1: in terms of playing. I like things like this in sports. Um, 1371 01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 1: how do you not win the Jaguars game? Well, that's that. 1372 01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:08,439 Speaker 1: It makes it makes last week's inexcusable loss even tougher 1373 01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:10,640 Speaker 1: to fall them right, they would be tied right now 1374 01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:13,240 Speaker 1: at eight and seven with the Steelers and the Titans. 1375 01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,680 Speaker 1: It's it's unbelievable. And because this was as much of 1376 01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:18,360 Speaker 1: a home game as that was, and and and the 1377 01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:21,360 Speaker 1: broadcast crew pointed out they were there because you can't 1378 01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 1: tell on TV. It seems like there's a lot of 1379 01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:27,080 Speaker 1: Raiders fans. They put it at like noise level and 1380 01:09:27,120 --> 01:09:29,000 Speaker 1: support level for the Raiders, which is, you know, we 1381 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 1: can get to that in a second. But the reason 1382 01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:34,519 Speaker 1: I picked that uh cap drive capping touchdown right there 1383 01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:36,960 Speaker 1: was that this game felt to me, And I mentioned 1384 01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:39,360 Speaker 1: to you guys call times utterly formless, and I was 1385 01:09:39,439 --> 01:09:41,720 Speaker 1: like struggling to find anything from it that was even 1386 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:44,759 Speaker 1: vaguely relevant. But then the Raiders open, They're up fourteen 1387 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,600 Speaker 1: seven and looking very Raiders ish and the Chargers have 1388 01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:49,880 Speaker 1: already gone to sleep. I don't know what that what 1389 01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:53,240 Speaker 1: what is happening with them, but they are up fourteen 1390 01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:56,720 Speaker 1: seven and put together an effective nine minute drive that 1391 01:09:56,800 --> 01:09:59,160 Speaker 1: did two things. I thought it tired out the Los 1392 01:09:59,240 --> 01:10:02,000 Speaker 1: Angeles defen and they never really were the same after that. 1393 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:05,840 Speaker 1: And basically just challenge Philip Rivers, who spent the entire 1394 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:09,080 Speaker 1: game with his right thumb taped up, and you know 1395 01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:10,760 Speaker 1: he was not in a good place. He had a 1396 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:12,679 Speaker 1: glove on his other hand just to even be able 1397 01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:15,719 Speaker 1: to protect the ball well. And you know that Raider 1398 01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:17,599 Speaker 1: that Chargers game from a couple of weeks ago where 1399 01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:19,760 Speaker 1: Rivers went up, was on fire and joining at people, 1400 01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:22,320 Speaker 1: and it was the Jaguars. It makes that seem even 1401 01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 1: the more ridiculous because two weeks in a row they've 1402 01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:26,960 Speaker 1: they've not gotten the job done. I don't know what 1403 01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:29,000 Speaker 1: to say about Oakland. I mean, they just have no 1404 01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:31,519 Speaker 1: weapons at all, and they don't have Josh Jacobs right now. 1405 01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:33,560 Speaker 1: And it's a little bit of Hunter Renfro, it's a 1406 01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 1: little bit of Darren Wallers, a lot of Hunter Renfro 1407 01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:39,320 Speaker 1: who today, to Greg's chagrin, he is the Janga piece 1408 01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 1: of that offense, he's the guy that keeps everything together 1409 01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:44,559 Speaker 1: in that passing attack, he goes over a hundred yards. 1410 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 1: He he is the evolutionary Wayne Crabet and everybody knows it. Well, okay, 1411 01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:52,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll side with you on that one. I 1412 01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:55,439 Speaker 1: just coming out like I do. I'll take the Renfro 1413 01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:57,760 Speaker 1: has come along. Well, it's been one of the best 1414 01:10:57,960 --> 01:11:01,280 Speaker 1: four hundred and ninety yards in a while. Well that's 1415 01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:04,439 Speaker 1: all they have. But they I just cannot imagine what 1416 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:07,200 Speaker 1: is going to happen to this Chargers team. And you know, 1417 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:09,880 Speaker 1: it's not something that the that the NFL wants people 1418 01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:13,040 Speaker 1: to to talk about and complain about. When you put them, 1419 01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:20,360 Speaker 1: well you put them into an eighties seventy stadium, what 1420 01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 1: is going to be the weekly the optics silent Snap 1421 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 1: Catalyst counted home it was. It was Yeah, it's well, 1422 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,360 Speaker 1: it's a huge disadvantage to the organization, but it's one. 1423 01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:34,560 Speaker 1: It's one that they created, that the Chargers created. I 1424 01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,559 Speaker 1: did want to mention this article that crack me up 1425 01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:42,640 Speaker 1: from our old friend Gilbert Manzana, remember, and it was 1426 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,400 Speaker 1: he was asking some of the Chargers players if they 1427 01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:48,880 Speaker 1: knew the name of the of the stadium they played in. Uh, 1428 01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:50,720 Speaker 1: and they didn't. You know, are a few of many 1429 01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:54,080 Speaker 1: of them did not. Austin Nekeler guests it was Divinity 1430 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:57,080 Speaker 1: Health Field, which is not. Some of them call it 1431 01:11:57,200 --> 01:11:59,680 Speaker 1: the dig which I didn't know about. But this is it. 1432 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:04,000 Speaker 1: The was the stubhab it turned into dignity to the colisseum, 1433 01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 1: and this was it. And so it was a three 1434 01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:08,759 Speaker 1: years of Sure they don't, they don't have fund memories 1435 01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:11,280 Speaker 1: that the key was. Yet the players all said, I 1436 01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:13,839 Speaker 1: we are ready to get out of here. These corporate 1437 01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,320 Speaker 1: name stadiums changed their name every year. I can't blame 1438 01:12:16,360 --> 01:12:19,240 Speaker 1: players for not keeping up with it. Uh, let's move up. 1439 01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,880 Speaker 1: Thirty gold three Jones in the shotgun, Barkley to his right, 1440 01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:25,360 Speaker 1: he calls out, signals, takes the snaff, He's back to 1441 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:28,479 Speaker 1: throw far as when right, touchdown Giants Tayton Smith. Then 1442 01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:32,960 Speaker 1: they went in overtime, second touchdown cat for Smith, Jones 1443 01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:36,240 Speaker 1: Smith touchdown pass of the ball game, and the Giants 1444 01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:40,920 Speaker 1: win it in overtime on thirty five Bob popa w 1445 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:44,160 Speaker 1: f A and Yes, Daniel Jones through for three fifty 1446 01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:46,920 Speaker 1: two yards and a career high five touchdown passes, including 1447 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:50,720 Speaker 1: that game winner in o t lifting those Giants whom 1448 01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:55,400 Speaker 1: five over the skins Jones, he wasn't the only young 1449 01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:59,600 Speaker 1: Giant star on shining display. S Quon Barkley steady franchise 1450 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:03,559 Speaker 1: wreck gird Gentleman. I mean, this is a decorated franchise 1451 01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:08,640 Speaker 1: who seventy nine yards from scrimmage too long touchdowns. It 1452 01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:12,640 Speaker 1: was a Davy Gentleman fever dream, um. And that's the 1453 01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:14,719 Speaker 1: thing that my takeaway from the Giants at the stage 1454 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:17,680 Speaker 1: that they have so much work to do and it's 1455 01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:19,880 Speaker 1: been a terrible season, and it's been a run of 1456 01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:23,679 Speaker 1: bad football for this team, um for the most part, 1457 01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:29,160 Speaker 1: outside of one largely forgettable. Who's the head coach with 1458 01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:32,720 Speaker 1: the really bad hair, Ray Hanley? No, no, no, they 1459 01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:37,160 Speaker 1: went eleven and five or ten and six. I mean 1460 01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:40,519 Speaker 1: he's the best. Why did I dial that he had 1461 01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:43,760 Speaker 1: like a comb? I mean he's the best Giants coach 1462 01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:48,600 Speaker 1: of the decade, including Tom Alright, you lost twice, you 1463 01:13:48,680 --> 01:13:53,720 Speaker 1: got beat twice, Yeah that was and forty six is 1464 01:13:53,760 --> 01:13:57,519 Speaker 1: never going away anyway. They have so much work to do, 1465 01:13:57,960 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: the Giants, and Dave Gentleman doesn't deserve a raid because 1466 01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:03,240 Speaker 1: a lot of his moves haven't worked out. But there 1467 01:14:03,280 --> 01:14:05,720 Speaker 1: are worst places to be in than to have a 1468 01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:09,759 Speaker 1: high draft pick. And I don't know the salary cap situation, 1469 01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:13,800 Speaker 1: but uh, to have Daniel Daniel Jones. And this is 1470 01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:16,120 Speaker 1: not his first game the season where he's piled up 1471 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:18,800 Speaker 1: these monster stats. I I meant to go back and 1472 01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:21,759 Speaker 1: check it out. According to Gil Brandt on Twitter, Jones 1473 01:14:21,840 --> 01:14:24,880 Speaker 1: is the only rookie since at least nineteen fifty with 1474 01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:28,320 Speaker 1: three fifty plus passing yards, five plus passing TVs and 1475 01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:32,120 Speaker 1: zero interceptions in a game. And Barkley this is the 1476 01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:34,479 Speaker 1: performance you expected more of these type of games, but 1477 01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:38,760 Speaker 1: it's just a reminder of how incredibly talented he is. 1478 01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:41,000 Speaker 1: He is the type of guy that you could get 1479 01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:42,800 Speaker 1: on his back and take you to the super Bowl 1480 01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:45,120 Speaker 1: if you have the right team around him. So as 1481 01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:46,960 Speaker 1: far as John's goes, they have so much work to do, 1482 01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:49,560 Speaker 1: but they have two potential big pieces. Barkley, we know 1483 01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:53,400 Speaker 1: he's already a superstar, but Jones is shown certainly enough 1484 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:55,360 Speaker 1: in his rookie year to make you think they have 1485 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:59,519 Speaker 1: a guy that they can really build around. I found 1486 01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:02,120 Speaker 1: an interes staying this report that when Dwayne Haskins went 1487 01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:06,240 Speaker 1: out with an ankle injury that Redskins owner Daniel Snyder 1488 01:15:06,360 --> 01:15:08,120 Speaker 1: told him not to come back in the game. What 1489 01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:10,680 Speaker 1: or is that not? Skins clarified after the game that 1490 01:15:10,800 --> 01:15:13,600 Speaker 1: the doctor told him not to and then has and 1491 01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:16,280 Speaker 1: then the owner basically said listen to listen to the doctor. 1492 01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 1: You know. Well that feels less controversial. Yeah, well that's 1493 01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:21,880 Speaker 1: the way it was fun After the game. The initial 1494 01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:25,719 Speaker 1: report was curious. So that's what Haskins told the media. 1495 01:15:26,120 --> 01:15:29,160 Speaker 1: And then a Redskins spokesman came out immediately like no, no, no, no, no, 1496 01:15:29,280 --> 01:15:32,000 Speaker 1: that's not how it played out. Him came in and 1497 01:15:32,280 --> 01:15:36,360 Speaker 1: and almost led them to victory. But because the Redskins 1498 01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:39,120 Speaker 1: defense was so bad and lost it in overtime, you 1499 01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:41,639 Speaker 1: got the Redskins with the number two pick in the draft, 1500 01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:45,640 Speaker 1: which in this draft, especially with Chase Young sitting out there, Uh, 1501 01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:49,040 Speaker 1: it's very advantageous. They just need to lose once more. Yeah, 1502 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:51,639 Speaker 1: that in fact possible. I was kind of blown away 1503 01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 1: that after uh case Keenum led the Redskins on a 1504 01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:58,760 Speaker 1: ninety nine yard touchdown drive to pull them within one point, 1505 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 1: and with gets to play, they opted to kick the 1506 01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:03,760 Speaker 1: extra point and play for overtimes, like, what are we 1507 01:16:03,840 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 1: doing here? Yeah, the movies to go for two there 1508 01:16:06,360 --> 01:16:08,320 Speaker 1: either win or lose. And by the way, wink wink, 1509 01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:11,080 Speaker 1: throw it over the crossbar and let's let's get to 1510 01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:14,599 Speaker 1: town with Chase Young. But anyway, he'd kicked the extra 1511 01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:16,560 Speaker 1: point and Daniel Jones did the rest. I like, I 1512 01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:18,360 Speaker 1: set up all that gentleman stuff, and it was just 1513 01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:20,160 Speaker 1: silence in the room because nobody likes to talk about 1514 01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:23,599 Speaker 1: Dave Getleman was waiting for someone else. Every time one 1515 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:25,679 Speaker 1: side says look at the scoreboard, the other side looks 1516 01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:27,200 Speaker 1: done for a month. I would like to have a 1517 01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:31,320 Speaker 1: parade for him. That would be fun. Just means it 1518 01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:33,840 Speaker 1: hasn't gone well, and they now they're set up for 1519 01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:36,200 Speaker 1: the number four picket. Looks like they'll stay ahead of 1520 01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:39,880 Speaker 1: Miami next week as well in terms of strength of schedule, 1521 01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:42,240 Speaker 1: so if they don't win that, they're at him. But 1522 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:44,479 Speaker 1: I'm not crazy. Jones has had he's stacked together. I 1523 01:16:44,520 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 1: know he's had bad games too. He's had monster game. 1524 01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:51,559 Speaker 1: He's had some monster like bang on a banged up 1525 01:16:51,760 --> 01:16:54,519 Speaker 1: NFC games. Uh, it's been up and down, but there's 1526 01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:56,599 Speaker 1: definitely been those big time moments. I mean this game 1527 01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,360 Speaker 1: had twenty eight points before there was an incompletion. Has 1528 01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 1: you know the running games and Haskins and him, We're 1529 01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:04,920 Speaker 1: going back. If Baker or Donald throw five touchdowns and 1530 01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:07,120 Speaker 1: zero picks last game, we would be running around the 1531 01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:08,720 Speaker 1: building with no clothes on it. And the thing with 1532 01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:13,040 Speaker 1: the whole thing, it would be treated differently, would it 1533 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:15,960 Speaker 1: be great? And the whole thing with the with going 1534 01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:18,599 Speaker 1: back into the game and the owner that you could 1535 01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:21,439 Speaker 1: lay that out and put team X and everyone would say, oh, 1536 01:17:21,520 --> 01:17:24,520 Speaker 1: we know who what team was responsible for the Shenanigans 1537 01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:27,559 Speaker 1: or this controversy and that's a problem there. All right, 1538 01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:31,400 Speaker 1: Let's move on straight eye formation slot right. They handed 1539 01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:35,200 Speaker 1: off Philip Lindsay straight ahead and lives his nest. Lindsay 1540 01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:39,880 Speaker 1: and sideventeen high steps inside the five touchdown. Denver Fello 1541 01:17:39,960 --> 01:17:45,360 Speaker 1: up Lindsey his seventh rushing touchdown of the year. That's 1542 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:49,519 Speaker 1: a scamper of twenty seven yards and it extends the 1543 01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 1: Broncos lead to seven. Team was six nine left Dave 1544 01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:56,920 Speaker 1: Logan with a call that was the final score of 1545 01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:00,240 Speaker 1: the game. Philip Lindsay seals it with that touch down 1546 01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:07,000 Speaker 1: and Drew Lock delivered another promising performance. Sobroncos over the Browns. Lions. 1547 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:10,560 Speaker 1: Excuse me, who have now dropped eighth straight West? You 1548 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 1: picked this game for the grass field the men would 1549 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,080 Speaker 1: play on. Did you get anything else out of it? 1550 01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:20,960 Speaker 1: So Lindsay looks good, uh Drew Lock. You can't really 1551 01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:23,160 Speaker 1: take a whole lot out of this one. It was 1552 01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:26,679 Speaker 1: mostly the Philip Lindsay show. He did lead an impressive 1553 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:29,320 Speaker 1: drive where he threw the ball to day Shawn Hamilton. 1554 01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 1: He might have had the best game of his career. 1555 01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:32,840 Speaker 1: I was just wondering a week or two ago if 1556 01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:35,080 Speaker 1: this guy just isn't very good and will never be 1557 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:37,720 Speaker 1: a starting caliber receiver for the Broncos. But he had 1558 01:18:37,720 --> 01:18:41,160 Speaker 1: a pretty good game today. Uh Lock was good and 1559 01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:44,439 Speaker 1: the Lions had their first lead of December for a while. 1560 01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:48,320 Speaker 1: I mean that's saying something. They they had a Jamal 1561 01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:52,120 Speaker 1: agnew return punt return for a touchdown, and Kenny Galladay 1562 01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:56,879 Speaker 1: played well as he always does, and uh Blow shrunk 1563 01:18:57,040 --> 01:19:00,280 Speaker 1: against pass pressure as he usually does. Now, wait minute, 1564 01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:04,040 Speaker 1: well let's all right, but if I'll have to go 1565 01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:07,600 Speaker 1: check out this game extensively myself, I mean, by the 1566 01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:10,160 Speaker 1: very nature of your club, you have to stick with 1567 01:19:10,320 --> 01:19:12,280 Speaker 1: the quarterback. Well, thank you, I was gonna. I did 1568 01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:15,479 Speaker 1: notice that the blowhards who support David blow um along 1569 01:19:15,560 --> 01:19:18,960 Speaker 1: with the bohemians who are both Scarborough fans. Those two 1570 01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:21,720 Speaker 1: players combined and one of them is a quarterback for 1571 01:19:21,800 --> 01:19:24,920 Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty one total yards. So we're gone. 1572 01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:27,800 Speaker 1: We're gonna go through some tough stretches supporting these guys. 1573 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:29,640 Speaker 1: But if you think that we're gonna jump ship at 1574 01:19:29,720 --> 01:19:35,640 Speaker 1: some point, uh well, David blow will do something in 1575 01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:37,320 Speaker 1: his life. We will report on him no matter what 1576 01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:38,840 Speaker 1: he's doing, whether it's on the field or not. A 1577 01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:43,960 Speaker 1: lion's up to the number three pick. Gotta snuck in there. 1578 01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:47,280 Speaker 1: Gotta snuck in there. If the Redskins mess around and 1579 01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:50,840 Speaker 1: and bet the Redskins next week is like a nine 1580 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:52,760 Speaker 1: game losing streak to end your season, that could really 1581 01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:54,800 Speaker 1: do one. Undoubtedly Bob Quinn will do the right thing 1582 01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:59,719 Speaker 1: with that. That draft slob. Let's move on, move Onield Jackson. 1583 01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,839 Speaker 1: While four quick, bro, that's Freeman the catch touchdown. Atlanta 1584 01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:05,280 Speaker 1: caught it at the two and then just kind of 1585 01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:08,160 Speaker 1: backed his way into the end zone. He took to 1586 01:20:08,360 --> 01:20:12,360 Speaker 1: Rod Wilson and Trey Herndon wooded so DeVante Freeman on 1587 01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:15,040 Speaker 1: the board, on the ground and through the air and 1588 01:20:15,160 --> 01:20:18,799 Speaker 1: it's thirteen nothing Atlanta West Durham and the Falcons radio network. 1589 01:20:19,360 --> 01:20:23,880 Speaker 1: DeVante DeVante Freeman scored two touchdowns before the Jacksonville Jaguars 1590 01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:27,080 Speaker 1: even took a snap, and uh that was enough and 1591 01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:32,599 Speaker 1: the Falcons beat the Jaguars. And a matchup between two 1592 01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:36,120 Speaker 1: two teams thinking about whether they want to fire their 1593 01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:40,880 Speaker 1: head coaches yep, the Hot Butt Bowl. Uh So this 1594 01:20:40,920 --> 01:20:43,759 Speaker 1: would be another positive Sunday on the save Dan Quinn 1595 01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:48,920 Speaker 1: front because they have a chance after one and seven, 1596 01:20:49,040 --> 01:20:51,760 Speaker 1: start to finish the second half of the season six 1597 01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:54,080 Speaker 1: and two. And that's the type of stuff that makes 1598 01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:58,040 Speaker 1: ownership think twice, unless, of course, Arthur Blank already decided 1599 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:00,640 Speaker 1: at one and seven that he wanted to hit the 1600 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:04,360 Speaker 1: reset button. We'll find out soon enough. Um. And a 1601 01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:07,280 Speaker 1: couple of things. We get the report for me and 1602 01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:10,479 Speaker 1: Rapp report this weekend. Same thing. Why let's hold off 1603 01:21:10,520 --> 01:21:13,679 Speaker 1: on this stuff that Doug Moron after the Tom Coughlin 1604 01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:18,040 Speaker 1: firing might actually be safe and he might continue on 1605 01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:21,439 Speaker 1: in is the head coach along with David Caldwell. With 1606 01:21:21,520 --> 01:21:24,519 Speaker 1: David called all the GM although Tony con who we've met, 1607 01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:27,439 Speaker 1: very nice man. He can end up having a greater 1608 01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:31,479 Speaker 1: role potentially, uh in the decision making of the team. Um. 1609 01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:34,040 Speaker 1: And then you go out in the Jaguars, you know, 1610 01:21:34,160 --> 01:21:37,680 Speaker 1: lay another egg in a game that is kind It 1611 01:21:37,840 --> 01:21:42,519 Speaker 1: was not even it wasn't even that entertaining. Uh, your 1612 01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:46,000 Speaker 1: boy Minshew did nothing until the very end of the game, 1613 01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:49,240 Speaker 1: nineteen yards passing, like with minutes to go in the 1614 01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:51,680 Speaker 1: second quarter. I know, but he's your guy, so I 1615 01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:56,080 Speaker 1: don't know. Um. And I want to focus on Julio 1616 01:21:56,160 --> 01:21:58,080 Speaker 1: Jones before we move on, because Wes, he made a 1617 01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:00,960 Speaker 1: good point when we were in our conversation about the 1618 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:05,680 Speaker 1: All Decade team. Uh that uh almost you know, he 1619 01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:07,720 Speaker 1: flies under the radar a little bit. How great this 1620 01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:11,439 Speaker 1: man has been. On Sunday, Julio Jones had his fifty 1621 01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:15,960 Speaker 1: fifth career one yard receiving day. UM. That is the 1622 01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:19,920 Speaker 1: most among active players, the fourth most all time. And 1623 01:22:20,240 --> 01:22:22,599 Speaker 1: if he manages eighty four yards next week, he'll tie 1624 01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:26,400 Speaker 1: Jerry Rice. Yes, Jerry Rice, for the most fourteen hundred 1625 01:22:26,479 --> 01:22:29,920 Speaker 1: yards seasons at receiver. And so Julio is gonna do 1626 01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:31,920 Speaker 1: it six years in a row. If he does six 1627 01:22:32,040 --> 01:22:34,760 Speaker 1: years in a row. And keep in mind Jones is 1628 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:38,320 Speaker 1: still just thirty years old. It's been remarkable what him, 1629 01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:41,599 Speaker 1: oh what he and Matt Ryan have done together. Yes, 1630 01:22:41,720 --> 01:22:44,200 Speaker 1: they blew the Super Bowl, but it's not all about that. 1631 01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:46,559 Speaker 1: What this these two guys have done as a tandem. 1632 01:22:47,439 --> 01:22:49,519 Speaker 1: By the way, Julio Jones didn't blow this. Yea, he 1633 01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:51,479 Speaker 1: made the catch that should have locked up the Super 1634 01:22:51,520 --> 01:22:54,600 Speaker 1: Bowl against the Patriots, but that's a different conversation. This 1635 01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:57,759 Speaker 1: is a tremendous player. We get to watch greatness every Sunday, 1636 01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:00,800 Speaker 1: even if the Falcons aren't very good. Left footed kicker 1637 01:23:00,920 --> 01:23:04,160 Speaker 1: gets this one away a high spiraling kick. He turned 1638 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:06,920 Speaker 1: it over, backing up nine lines inside his twenty. Now 1639 01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:11,000 Speaker 1: near side numbers thirty five, forty forty five down. The 1640 01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:13,360 Speaker 1: dear sunline has the putter theatre, so he's at the 1641 01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:17,080 Speaker 1: thirty's at the twenty. He's gonna go ninevehnes up punt 1642 01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:21,200 Speaker 1: return for a touchdown. HIGs takes it all the way 1643 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:27,080 Speaker 1: back the cla nothing. Matt Taylor, Colts Radio Network of 1644 01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:30,679 Speaker 1: the Call, and Nwhaim Hines became the first NFL player 1645 01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:33,479 Speaker 1: in seven years to score two punt returns in the 1646 01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:37,519 Speaker 1: same game. And he set up another touchdown with a 1647 01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:40,640 Speaker 1: long return early in the game. I mean, it's like 1648 01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:43,559 Speaker 1: one of the Greig six win for the Cults over 1649 01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:45,920 Speaker 1: the Panthers is one of the best special teams performances 1650 01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:48,200 Speaker 1: the NFL history based on what I'm seeing here. Yeah, 1651 01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:50,200 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't know what you're gonna see when 1652 01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:53,000 Speaker 1: you sign up for Colts, Panthers and Eats sixteen, but 1653 01:23:53,120 --> 01:23:55,560 Speaker 1: you got one of the great punt return performances. It 1654 01:23:55,720 --> 01:23:58,720 Speaker 1: was only three returns. One was for forty yards, which 1655 01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:01,960 Speaker 1: set up there for touchdown, and then their next The 1656 01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:04,760 Speaker 1: next two was an eighty four yard touchdown, which we 1657 01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:07,840 Speaker 1: heard and that the seventy one yard touchdown return in 1658 01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:10,200 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter was even more electric. It wasn't just 1659 01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:13,080 Speaker 1: the blocking, it was him making guys miss. It just 1660 01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:15,320 Speaker 1: made me wonder, like, why was Naim behind not the 1661 01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:17,599 Speaker 1: pun return until this week? You gotta get gotta get 1662 01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:20,320 Speaker 1: bones fossil and Carolina is their next head coach. Let's 1663 01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:23,080 Speaker 1: put this in perspective. There's only six guys who have 1664 01:24:23,200 --> 01:24:26,559 Speaker 1: more punt return yards all season than Naim Hines had 1665 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:28,800 Speaker 1: on Sunday. Right, we're in NFL where they love thisn't 1666 01:24:28,840 --> 01:24:32,360 Speaker 1: happening anymore. And it was essentially Eric metcalfeean you know, 1667 01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:34,160 Speaker 1: which is it too late to make the Cults the 1668 01:24:34,200 --> 01:24:36,920 Speaker 1: team of around the NFL a little bit? Yeah, so 1669 01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:39,200 Speaker 1: he he set it up. There wasn't there wasn't too 1670 01:24:39,280 --> 01:24:41,600 Speaker 1: much else. I know. Our friend Spice Rack had a 1671 01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:45,240 Speaker 1: lot of hopes, hopefully just hopes pinned on Bill Greer 1672 01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:48,479 Speaker 1: today and based on the text that felt like a 1673 01:24:48,560 --> 01:24:51,120 Speaker 1: lot was on the line. Well, he was over seven 1674 01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:53,479 Speaker 1: with three interceptions on deep passes today and we were 1675 01:24:53,560 --> 01:24:55,720 Speaker 1: told to watch for deep pass they did. He his 1676 01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:58,479 Speaker 1: first throw was like fifty yards down the field. It 1677 01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:01,840 Speaker 1: was pretty well covered. It was Alrea incomplete. Uh. Two 1678 01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:05,360 Speaker 1: of those interceptions were uh in the last three minutes 1679 01:25:05,400 --> 01:25:07,840 Speaker 1: of the game. So sometimes garbage time goes goes wrong, 1680 01:25:08,200 --> 01:25:10,040 Speaker 1: you know, But he didn't. He didn't really make any 1681 01:25:10,120 --> 01:25:14,040 Speaker 1: plays that made you excited. Interesting when garbage time goes wrong. 1682 01:25:14,280 --> 01:25:17,559 Speaker 1: Ian reported that the Cults will take a long look 1683 01:25:17,600 --> 01:25:20,599 Speaker 1: at the quarterback position and would be open to drafting someone, 1684 01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:22,640 Speaker 1: and that they're you know, of course, I mean well 1685 01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:25,920 Speaker 1: not of course debating that on Thursday, but I think 1686 01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:28,080 Speaker 1: you have too with this. I think the thing is 1687 01:25:28,200 --> 01:25:30,960 Speaker 1: will they go after like a veteran because you could 1688 01:25:31,000 --> 01:25:33,720 Speaker 1: get out of his contract easily enough. Jacoby Brissette, that is, 1689 01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:36,120 Speaker 1: who did not play well today. I mean he didn't 1690 01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:39,719 Speaker 1: look any better than Will Greer. Anybody's stock on lower 1691 01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:44,400 Speaker 1: in the last eight weeks in Jacoby Brissette to where 1692 01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:47,360 Speaker 1: he is playing in theory through an injury. Um, but 1693 01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:50,439 Speaker 1: he's just so inaccurate. All his balls, his passes are 1694 01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:52,960 Speaker 1: are sailing. They somehow scored thirty eight points with him 1695 01:25:53,080 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 1: completing fourteen nineteen yards. But you have him Hines and 1696 01:25:58,520 --> 01:26:01,240 Speaker 1: a rugged running game racked up over a couple of 1697 01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:03,200 Speaker 1: hundred yards. You know you're gonna do it. Anthes just 1698 01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:06,680 Speaker 1: wait for that offseason vacation at the Colts have a 1699 01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:10,000 Speaker 1: playoff chance, right Greg, No, they're done. They are done. 1700 01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:13,160 Speaker 1: But they am glad you said this just so that 1701 01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:17,160 Speaker 1: I can But they all wait. They are they are 1702 01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:21,360 Speaker 1: a factor in a playoffs scenario because here's what they 1703 01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:23,800 Speaker 1: can do. We forgot to mention with the Raiders. We 1704 01:26:23,840 --> 01:26:25,880 Speaker 1: should at least spell it out what needs to happen. 1705 01:26:25,960 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 1: The Colts are involved in the Colts if they win 1706 01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:34,000 Speaker 1: at Jacksonville West next Sunday, they could be part of 1707 01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:37,719 Speaker 1: a four way eight and eight tie that would send 1708 01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:40,960 Speaker 1: the Raiders to the playoffs because they would win that fight. 1709 01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:43,719 Speaker 1: For for that to happen, not only do the Colts 1710 01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:45,920 Speaker 1: have to win, the Steelers have to have to lose 1711 01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:49,360 Speaker 1: at the Ravens not impossible, The Titans have to lose 1712 01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:52,800 Speaker 1: at the Texans, not impossible. And the Raiders have to 1713 01:26:52,880 --> 01:26:56,599 Speaker 1: win in Denver and that would send them to the playoffs. 1714 01:26:56,600 --> 01:26:58,040 Speaker 1: And they just need some help from the hem Hims 1715 01:26:58,120 --> 01:27:00,720 Speaker 1: and a few other teams and Spice Rack. Nobody has 1716 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:04,040 Speaker 1: any idea where you are anymore, but wherever you are, 1717 01:27:04,600 --> 01:27:07,120 Speaker 1: Merry Chris, We're bounced back. This was just you know, 1718 01:27:07,280 --> 01:27:09,920 Speaker 1: as a as a fleshmound, do any of these precious 1719 01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:12,400 Speaker 1: little calculations take into the fact that the Texans are 1720 01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:15,120 Speaker 1: probably gonna arrest all their players and it won't matter anyway. No, 1721 01:27:15,280 --> 01:27:17,479 Speaker 1: the tech well that uh yeah, that would that would 1722 01:27:17,479 --> 01:27:19,599 Speaker 1: be a problem. Yeah, all your little twelve percent goes 1723 01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:22,560 Speaker 1: down to like point one point point. Allow people to 1724 01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:27,559 Speaker 1: dream to Miami we Go, I mean from the dirt 1725 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:30,920 Speaker 1: knap guy. That's funny. It's the only one that's your 1726 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:34,720 Speaker 1: Raiders where it is off the hole. Sanders trying to 1727 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:39,720 Speaker 1: hold the down. Kick is up and the tick is 1728 01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:42,439 Speaker 1: good and the Biby Dolphins at the feet of the 1729 01:27:42,479 --> 01:27:47,360 Speaker 1: Cincinnati bengalst thirty five and overtime. Livy goes to four 1730 01:27:47,439 --> 01:27:49,920 Speaker 1: and low level of the season. The Bengals called the 1731 01:27:50,040 --> 01:27:53,559 Speaker 1: one at fourteen and one of the most usual games 1732 01:27:54,040 --> 01:27:56,800 Speaker 1: in the history of the stadium. I mean, let's hear 1733 01:27:56,840 --> 01:28:03,280 Speaker 1: it that you don't get many with Jimmy Seplo, Dolphins 1734 01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:06,720 Speaker 1: Radio Network. The Dolphins gave up sixteen points in the 1735 01:28:06,760 --> 01:28:11,320 Speaker 1: final twenty nine seconds of regulation, but somehow regrouped, getting 1736 01:28:11,360 --> 01:28:15,640 Speaker 1: at Jason Sanders thirty seven yard or five dub for 1737 01:28:15,760 --> 01:28:20,280 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Miami had a thirty six lead, excuse lead 1738 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:24,160 Speaker 1: with less than seven minutes to play, but watched Andy 1739 01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:29,120 Speaker 1: Dalton go ginger nuclear force overtime. The big picture mark 1740 01:28:29,439 --> 01:28:32,840 Speaker 1: the Bengals are one in fourteen and now own the 1741 01:28:32,960 --> 01:28:35,720 Speaker 1: number one overall pick in the draft, and you can't 1742 01:28:35,760 --> 01:28:39,240 Speaker 1: take it away from him. Hello Joe Barrow, Yeah, I thought, 1743 01:28:39,400 --> 01:28:43,160 Speaker 1: I mean for a minute that we were witnessing insane, 1744 01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:46,680 Speaker 1: glowing red Gingerman revenge on the organization he'll likely not 1745 01:28:46,840 --> 01:28:50,240 Speaker 1: be with next year. By orchestrating this ferocious comeback. And 1746 01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:52,880 Speaker 1: you know, had they won and it didn't, and had 1747 01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:55,760 Speaker 1: something stuff happened next week, uh, you know, they would 1748 01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:57,880 Speaker 1: not have the number one overall picking Joe Burrow would 1749 01:28:57,880 --> 01:29:00,719 Speaker 1: be going somewhere else. Potentially would have been a delicious 1750 01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:02,840 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton narrative to close the year. I mean, if 1751 01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:04,760 Speaker 1: I were the if I were the Bengals owner, I 1752 01:29:04,800 --> 01:29:06,599 Speaker 1: would have called down when they were trying to essentially 1753 01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:09,360 Speaker 1: tie the game to go into overtime with a with 1754 01:29:09,479 --> 01:29:12,120 Speaker 1: a two point conversion, and they I would have said, 1755 01:29:12,439 --> 01:29:15,439 Speaker 1: you listen, if Andy Dalton doesn't fire this ball into 1756 01:29:15,520 --> 01:29:18,720 Speaker 1: the stands, everyone down there is gone. And instead they 1757 01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:21,400 Speaker 1: let they they they're toying with fate going in overtime. 1758 01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 1: But the Dolphins, who had an incredible game today from 1759 01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:27,800 Speaker 1: Yan Ryan Fitzpatrick, who is just playing as well as 1760 01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:31,439 Speaker 1: anyone around at this point. Uh, they squeaked it out West. 1761 01:29:31,520 --> 01:29:33,080 Speaker 1: You watch this too. I don't do have anything else 1762 01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:38,960 Speaker 1: you wanted. It was this game started out total yards 1763 01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:44,240 Speaker 1: one fifty nine to one Dolphins over Bengals. And I 1764 01:29:44,360 --> 01:29:46,200 Speaker 1: had written in my notes when I turned the game 1765 01:29:46,280 --> 01:29:48,519 Speaker 1: off with about forty seconds left, I really stay with 1766 01:29:48,600 --> 01:29:51,160 Speaker 1: it for a long time. This game not nearly as 1767 01:29:51,200 --> 01:29:53,240 Speaker 1: close as the final score will be, and that was 1768 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:56,800 Speaker 1: thirty five to nine games. It was with thirty seconds left, 1769 01:29:56,920 --> 01:30:00,639 Speaker 1: and then the Bengals uh scored a touchdown and fourth down, 1770 01:30:00,880 --> 01:30:03,720 Speaker 1: had a two point version, had a successful onside kick, 1771 01:30:03,960 --> 01:30:06,120 Speaker 1: had a twenty nine yard touchdown with the clock hitting 1772 01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:08,840 Speaker 1: hero then had an untimed two point version, all in 1773 01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:11,080 Speaker 1: the final thirty seconds of the game. I don't think 1774 01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:14,280 Speaker 1: we've ever seen that before. No, that was that was 1775 01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:20,599 Speaker 1: remarkable that they did that, and it worked out perfectly because, yes, West, 1776 01:30:20,680 --> 01:30:23,679 Speaker 1: as you pointed out, what would be more Cincinnati Bengals 1777 01:30:23,720 --> 01:30:26,320 Speaker 1: than this being you know, they'd lose that on borrow 1778 01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:29,720 Speaker 1: because of this insane one in a trillion scenario, and 1779 01:30:29,800 --> 01:30:33,360 Speaker 1: then whoever it goes with the first quarterback, well it 1780 01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:35,880 Speaker 1: ends up being you know, the next Tom Brady. That 1781 01:30:36,080 --> 01:30:38,040 Speaker 1: nothing would be more Bangles than that. So let's just 1782 01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 1: be thankful that the Bengals fans had a fun little 1783 01:30:41,160 --> 01:30:43,639 Speaker 1: moment there. Andy Dalton had maybe his last great moment 1784 01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:46,280 Speaker 1: in a Cincinnati uniform, and they still got what they 1785 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:49,160 Speaker 1: needed to get. Well, fast forward to late April. No 1786 01:30:49,280 --> 01:30:52,320 Speaker 1: one knows who Mike Brown's gonna take until they're on 1787 01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,479 Speaker 1: the clock, and there will be some speculation. You know, 1788 01:30:55,600 --> 01:30:58,560 Speaker 1: it's already started that he'll take Chase Young because he 1789 01:30:58,680 --> 01:31:01,560 Speaker 1: loves Ohio state guy and he's a once in a 1790 01:31:01,640 --> 01:31:03,880 Speaker 1: generation place and it's just Mike Brown. So we won't 1791 01:31:03,920 --> 01:31:05,800 Speaker 1: know until they actually called the pick. But well, you know, 1792 01:31:05,840 --> 01:31:08,760 Speaker 1: we've got four months to talk about business. The joke 1793 01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:11,360 Speaker 1: and scouting circles is the Bengals will draft the best 1794 01:31:11,400 --> 01:31:13,960 Speaker 1: Big Ten player available for a year, so of course 1795 01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:16,800 Speaker 1: it would be Chase Young. But there's another factor here. 1796 01:31:17,479 --> 01:31:21,120 Speaker 1: The Bengals are very This goes for all Cincinnati sports teams. 1797 01:31:21,400 --> 01:31:24,639 Speaker 1: They love Ohio people and Joe Burrow is from Athens, 1798 01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:27,920 Speaker 1: Ohio perfect, so they'll probably take him because they do 1799 01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:31,519 Speaker 1: love the local Bengal Is it this should be covered? 1800 01:31:31,760 --> 01:31:35,080 Speaker 1: Is it just assumed that the right coach for Joe Burrow? 1801 01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:40,600 Speaker 1: And filled the blank? Is you know I'm saying, is 1802 01:31:40,680 --> 01:31:44,800 Speaker 1: are we sure that they're bringing him back? I think 1803 01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:47,680 Speaker 1: we know enough about Bengals, what Zach Taylor has had 1804 01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:49,960 Speaker 1: with him this year, and do we know anything about 1805 01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:52,880 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow? I don't know it. This Dophen's team, we 1806 01:31:52,920 --> 01:31:56,040 Speaker 1: were quiet, we were questioning their very integrity early in 1807 01:31:56,080 --> 01:31:58,760 Speaker 1: the year people, you know, not the players and coaches, right, 1808 01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:01,080 Speaker 1: but the organization. And they now they're now they're in 1809 01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:03,439 Speaker 1: the fifth pick. You know, they won four games, they 1810 01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:05,880 Speaker 1: played too well. That could say that we were wrong 1811 01:32:05,960 --> 01:32:08,880 Speaker 1: for questioning the front office for trying to tank a season. Sure, 1812 01:32:09,280 --> 01:32:12,439 Speaker 1: but just more of that the NFL there was talking 1813 01:32:12,600 --> 01:32:14,120 Speaker 1: and we had it on this podcast. At the talent 1814 01:32:14,280 --> 01:32:17,880 Speaker 1: level really wasn't that different ultimately because it's the NFL 1815 01:32:17,920 --> 01:32:20,000 Speaker 1: and all these players are at least good enough. Bryan 1816 01:32:20,040 --> 01:32:22,880 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick now has as many four or more four touchdown 1817 01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:25,719 Speaker 1: games in his career than Matt Ryan or Tony Romo. 1818 01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:29,760 Speaker 1: Put him in put him in Canton, al right. Now 1819 01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:32,679 Speaker 1: on to Sunday Night. They're done in five for the Chiefs. 1820 01:32:32,680 --> 01:32:35,599 Speaker 1: Wiswall of the Bears. No score, big rush to the outside, 1821 01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,559 Speaker 1: Homes will scramble. He's at the town. He's the five 1822 01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:45,280 Speaker 1: touchdown city. Patrick Mahomes runs it in from twelve yards 1823 01:32:45,640 --> 01:32:48,320 Speaker 1: from The Chiefs get a touchdown on their first drive 1824 01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:53,160 Speaker 1: of the game. Mitch Holt does Chiefs Radio Network. Yes, 1825 01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:56,360 Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football. It looked like a mismatch on paper, 1826 01:32:56,400 --> 01:32:59,519 Speaker 1: and that's exactly how it turned out. Patrick Mahomes got 1827 01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:02,439 Speaker 1: the Chiefs going with that rushing touchdown, the knee looking 1828 01:33:02,479 --> 01:33:05,960 Speaker 1: pretty good, I might add, uh, and the Bears never 1829 01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:11,080 Speaker 1: really threatened to three. The final score, Kansas City moves 1830 01:33:11,160 --> 01:33:15,800 Speaker 1: to eleven and four, keeping themselves in the conversation for 1831 01:33:15,920 --> 01:33:19,320 Speaker 1: a first round by As we head toward week seventeen, 1832 01:33:19,439 --> 01:33:23,760 Speaker 1: the Bears playing out the string, and Bears fans who 1833 01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:26,080 Speaker 1: were loyal enough or you know, they're already in the 1834 01:33:26,160 --> 01:33:29,519 Speaker 1: hole for the tickets to go to this game at 1835 01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:34,360 Speaker 1: Soldier Field got some booing in on Trabinsky and the 1836 01:33:34,400 --> 01:33:39,559 Speaker 1: Bears offense, which was inefficient as ever Greg rosn Tall, 1837 01:33:39,880 --> 01:33:43,240 Speaker 1: but that's story for another time. The Chiefs keep rolling. 1838 01:33:44,280 --> 01:33:47,080 Speaker 1: It's part of the story here because this Chief's defense 1839 01:33:47,840 --> 01:33:50,920 Speaker 1: is good enough, especially stopping the past to hold a 1840 01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:54,120 Speaker 1: really bad offense to twenty six yards of passing a 1841 01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:56,840 Speaker 1: half time, which is what the Chiefs did today. They 1842 01:33:57,000 --> 01:34:00,280 Speaker 1: are able to just strangle these poor to teames, and 1843 01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:04,080 Speaker 1: we saw it last week against uh the Broncos, to 1844 01:34:04,200 --> 01:34:06,800 Speaker 1: the point where you feel like Patrick Mahomes in these 1845 01:34:06,920 --> 01:34:10,000 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, it's like, you know, it's like Michael 1846 01:34:10,080 --> 01:34:13,080 Speaker 1: Jordan's going out on like a back to back against 1847 01:34:13,120 --> 01:34:15,200 Speaker 1: the Suns that we only need like twenty seven and 1848 01:34:15,479 --> 01:34:17,600 Speaker 1: you know five out of you tonight. Let's save the 1849 01:34:17,680 --> 01:34:21,960 Speaker 1: real fireworks for the bigger challengers up the road. Chris 1850 01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:24,599 Speaker 1: Jones and Frank Clark are healthy upfront. They had Terrell 1851 01:34:24,680 --> 01:34:28,000 Speaker 1: Suggs one one Thornhill and Honeting Badger. I feel like 1852 01:34:28,040 --> 01:34:30,720 Speaker 1: they're playing as one of the best safety duos in 1853 01:34:30,760 --> 01:34:33,599 Speaker 1: the league over the past month and this past defense 1854 01:34:33,640 --> 01:34:36,880 Speaker 1: gets better every week to the point where I think 1855 01:34:36,920 --> 01:34:39,920 Speaker 1: they're as good as teams like the Saints. Yeah, I 1856 01:34:39,960 --> 01:34:44,200 Speaker 1: mean what defenses. Look, the Patriots, Patriots and Bills have 1857 01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:49,040 Speaker 1: better secondaries. Probably they do. But even even the best 1858 01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:51,000 Speaker 1: defenses that are making the playoffs, and I include the 1859 01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:54,160 Speaker 1: Patriots and the fort in this, I just don't feel 1860 01:34:54,200 --> 01:34:57,479 Speaker 1: that they're gonna come in like shut teams down every game. 1861 01:34:57,560 --> 01:35:00,080 Speaker 1: And in the Chiefs have holes, but their defense is 1862 01:35:00,120 --> 01:35:02,639 Speaker 1: good enough they're gonna be competitive with anyone. I don't 1863 01:35:02,640 --> 01:35:04,599 Speaker 1: think they're gonna be the reason that that they don't 1864 01:35:04,600 --> 01:35:06,760 Speaker 1: go a long way the winning games. I mean the 1865 01:35:07,240 --> 01:35:09,479 Speaker 1: last year, it was, you know, every game, you know, 1866 01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:11,799 Speaker 1: you you knew the defense was gonna give up twenty 1867 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:15,800 Speaker 1: seven points, and you had to have monster performances from 1868 01:35:15,840 --> 01:35:17,840 Speaker 1: the homes and the rest, and yeah, you're playing a 1869 01:35:17,880 --> 01:35:19,840 Speaker 1: bad opponent's day. But they made the Bears look as 1870 01:35:19,880 --> 01:35:23,400 Speaker 1: bad as ever. I mean, drives of fourteen four thirty 1871 01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:25,800 Speaker 1: two yards in the first half, a total disaster. I mean, 1872 01:35:25,800 --> 01:35:28,800 Speaker 1: the Bears offense is offensive to the eyes. And I 1873 01:35:29,320 --> 01:35:32,479 Speaker 1: it's we are a week away from saying farewell to 1874 01:35:32,640 --> 01:35:34,639 Speaker 1: twenty teams and they are the one. And I think 1875 01:35:34,640 --> 01:35:38,120 Speaker 1: their fans would agree that I cannot wait to say 1876 01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:40,400 Speaker 1: goodbye to They need a long winters nap and I 1877 01:35:40,439 --> 01:35:42,639 Speaker 1: don't want to hear from them until August. After six 1878 01:35:42,720 --> 01:35:45,000 Speaker 1: prime time games this year, I'm guessing it was six. 1879 01:35:45,080 --> 01:35:48,320 Speaker 1: That's the map they they'll they'll be down to let's 1880 01:35:48,320 --> 01:35:51,160 Speaker 1: say two to three, Yes, and maybe if they truly 1881 01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:55,519 Speaker 1: deserve a punishment for inflicting six primetime games upon us, 1882 01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:57,720 Speaker 1: including the kickoff game, just give them a Thursday night 1883 01:35:58,040 --> 01:36:00,599 Speaker 1: game next year to re establish their value. Robert May's 1884 01:36:00,960 --> 01:36:04,920 Speaker 1: made a good point, Robert May's of the ringer who 1885 01:36:04,960 --> 01:36:07,560 Speaker 1: does good work over there. He made Uh, you know, 1886 01:36:07,720 --> 01:36:12,200 Speaker 1: this game was the connection obviously between Patrick mahomes Um, 1887 01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:17,920 Speaker 1: who has picked after Mitch Trobinski famously infamously Chicago traded 1888 01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:21,280 Speaker 1: up to go get Rabinsky um while there were superstar 1889 01:36:21,400 --> 01:36:25,719 Speaker 1: quarterbacks to be still on the board. May's Road. Patrick 1890 01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:29,200 Speaker 1: Mahomes was an incredibly difficult evaluation who landed in a 1891 01:36:29,280 --> 01:36:32,439 Speaker 1: perfect situation. Deshaun Watson was one of the greatest college 1892 01:36:32,520 --> 01:36:36,559 Speaker 1: kubis ever. Passing on him is the franchise altering mistake. Uh, 1893 01:36:36,680 --> 01:36:39,400 Speaker 1: that's just this game is a reminder and one fans 1894 01:36:39,439 --> 01:36:43,519 Speaker 1: in Chicago are booing uh loudly. It's because this is 1895 01:36:43,680 --> 01:36:47,160 Speaker 1: gonna stick in their craw for a generation that they 1896 01:36:47,880 --> 01:36:51,400 Speaker 1: picked the wrong guy. And now that that decision, uh 1897 01:36:51,920 --> 01:36:53,840 Speaker 1: will be big. What what are the Bears do next 1898 01:36:53,920 --> 01:36:57,120 Speaker 1: to that possession, whether it's bringing in competition or finding 1899 01:36:57,120 --> 01:37:00,320 Speaker 1: a way out of the relationship entirely. But I want 1900 01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:04,000 Speaker 1: to make one more point about the Chiefs defense. We 1901 01:37:04,200 --> 01:37:06,240 Speaker 1: as we've established, is playing really well right now. This 1902 01:37:06,320 --> 01:37:09,639 Speaker 1: is their fifth consecutive game now where they've allowed seventeen 1903 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:13,519 Speaker 1: points or less um. And in these five games they've 1904 01:37:13,520 --> 01:37:17,679 Speaker 1: allowed all wins seventeen nine, sixteen, three and three points. 1905 01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:21,560 Speaker 1: It's just different. It's when we talk about the Patriots 1906 01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:24,560 Speaker 1: are different this year the offense is just different. The 1907 01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:26,760 Speaker 1: thing with the Chiefs is maybe they're not scoring the 1908 01:37:26,800 --> 01:37:30,040 Speaker 1: way there and Mahomes isn't his like your eyes aren't 1909 01:37:30,040 --> 01:37:31,600 Speaker 1: popping out of your head watching what he's doing on 1910 01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:34,920 Speaker 1: a weekly basis. But this is a more more rounded 1911 01:37:35,040 --> 01:37:37,360 Speaker 1: team and they continue to kind of lay in the 1912 01:37:37,400 --> 01:37:39,280 Speaker 1: weeds in the a f C is a team not 1913 01:37:39,439 --> 01:37:42,240 Speaker 1: to look past and a team that can absolutely going around, 1914 01:37:42,320 --> 01:37:44,680 Speaker 1: especially if they close out and they take care of 1915 01:37:44,720 --> 01:37:47,280 Speaker 1: business at home against the Chargers and then get get 1916 01:37:47,360 --> 01:37:48,720 Speaker 1: some get to get a break. And what is the 1917 01:37:48,760 --> 01:37:50,599 Speaker 1: break they need to get up? They need the Patriots 1918 01:37:50,680 --> 01:37:52,800 Speaker 1: to lose to the Dolphins. That's the It's the type 1919 01:37:52,840 --> 01:37:55,559 Speaker 1: of thing that hasn't happened in this Patriots run where 1920 01:37:55,640 --> 01:37:57,920 Speaker 1: they end up giving the break to another team that 1921 01:37:57,920 --> 01:38:00,160 Speaker 1: would make their life. That the Chiefs. That is a 1922 01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:02,200 Speaker 1: lot easier. But they are seven and one on the road, 1923 01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:05,520 Speaker 1: and if any team could beat New England and Baltimore 1924 01:38:05,600 --> 01:38:07,360 Speaker 1: in a row on the road, I think it's this 1925 01:38:07,520 --> 01:38:10,599 Speaker 1: Chief's team. There one road loss was that crazy game 1926 01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:13,160 Speaker 1: in Tennessee, which they should have won a few different ways, 1927 01:38:13,479 --> 01:38:16,160 Speaker 1: and and even if the score wasn't that high, it's 1928 01:38:16,200 --> 01:38:20,200 Speaker 1: like Kelsey is healthy, and Tyree Hills healthy, and Patrick 1929 01:38:20,280 --> 01:38:23,240 Speaker 1: Mahomes as he saw with the speed on that rushing touchdown, 1930 01:38:23,640 --> 01:38:26,519 Speaker 1: is healthy. They barely touched you know, Cleo Mac had 1931 01:38:26,560 --> 01:38:29,680 Speaker 1: the only quarterback hit on Patrick Mahomes the entire night. 1932 01:38:29,720 --> 01:38:32,320 Speaker 1: They're not touching him like everything is just if you're 1933 01:38:32,320 --> 01:38:34,280 Speaker 1: a Chief fan, you just want to get past next 1934 01:38:34,320 --> 01:38:36,320 Speaker 1: week healthy and get on because I think they got 1935 01:38:36,360 --> 01:38:38,360 Speaker 1: a chance here. All this is true. We all love 1936 01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:41,560 Speaker 1: how they're playing. It should be acknowledged that during this 1937 01:38:41,680 --> 01:38:44,599 Speaker 1: stretch where they're allowing nine point eight points per game 1938 01:38:44,680 --> 01:38:50,479 Speaker 1: on defense, they've played the Chargers, Raiders, Patriots, Broncos embarrass 1939 01:38:50,560 --> 01:38:52,599 Speaker 1: There's not a good offense in the bunch, right, That's 1940 01:38:52,640 --> 01:38:55,439 Speaker 1: why they'll give up points in yards against a good team. 1941 01:38:55,479 --> 01:38:57,679 Speaker 1: But I think they can. They can score with anyone. 1942 01:38:57,800 --> 01:39:00,320 Speaker 1: And I know Ravens fans don't think it matters much, 1943 01:39:00,400 --> 01:39:02,800 Speaker 1: but they've had that. They had the Ravens numbers last 1944 01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:06,400 Speaker 1: two years. They beat him pretty soundly. Is Mitch Drabinsky 1945 01:39:06,479 --> 01:39:09,680 Speaker 1: the week win starter in Chicago? Now next year? I 1946 01:39:09,800 --> 01:39:11,479 Speaker 1: just don't know how you can do this again. But 1947 01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:14,120 Speaker 1: I've been tough on them, maybe overly so at times. 1948 01:39:14,200 --> 01:39:17,920 Speaker 1: But you know, unless than their GM one Executive of 1949 01:39:18,000 --> 01:39:20,719 Speaker 1: the year, well well in amid making all these decisions 1950 01:39:21,160 --> 01:39:24,800 Speaker 1: and their hands so that yeah, the award is the 1951 01:39:24,840 --> 01:39:27,880 Speaker 1: award is not indicative of product, but ran past and 1952 01:39:28,040 --> 01:39:30,640 Speaker 1: great gray hair, and uh, he'll get a chance to 1953 01:39:30,680 --> 01:39:32,640 Speaker 1: rebuild this team. I don't know if Rabiscy will get 1954 01:39:32,640 --> 01:39:34,400 Speaker 1: a chance. No, it's not gonna hair. I got a 1955 01:39:34,479 --> 01:39:37,479 Speaker 1: text Ryan pays text while we were recording the podcast 1956 01:39:37,560 --> 01:39:43,400 Speaker 1: today from an unnamed um highly um esteemed member of 1957 01:39:43,479 --> 01:39:47,120 Speaker 1: talent here at NFL Network saying Ryan pays great hair, 1958 01:39:47,320 --> 01:39:51,439 Speaker 1: good looking.
