1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: They Around the NFL podcast eight Spreee and Sleeps Football from.

2
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: The Chris Westling podcast studio. It's around the NFL. I

3
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 2: am Dan Hansas. I have Greg Rosenthal and Mark Sessler here, heroes.

4
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 3: Both just get ready for that honk attack. You know,

5
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 3: we're talking before the show, how long is.

6
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 4: This show going to be?

7
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 3: Where Dan says he feels a honk attack coming. I

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 3: don't think so. We're excited, but we can control it.

9
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 1: They say.

10
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 5: It is always Greg who likes to put out a

11
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 5: number of how how long the show will go on for,

12
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 5: and he it's always an absurdly low. Now doing he

13
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 5: said fifty something, I said, Greg is a large reason.

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 5: But we love to hear from Greg, but like it

15
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 5: is a large reason why the show will go seventy

16
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 5: five min out.

17
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: Now.

18
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 1: I try to humor Greg when he says that.

19
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 4: I go, okay, okay, great, I'm just saying this Wednesday.

20
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then and then you lose feeling in your arms.

21
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 2: It's a honk attack. But we have plenty of reason

22
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 2: to honk yes on this show, in particular because never

23
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 2: before since February has football felt this close.

24
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: To being back. Football is back almost.

25
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 3: I mean we're previewing an actual game games.

26
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is. We're nearing the target.

27
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 2: It is the Thursday night OPRA is a little over

28
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 2: twenty four hours away as we tape this, and it's

29
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 2: the defending champion Chiefs on the field at Arrowhead, with

30
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 2: or without Travis Kelcey. Interesting little drama to throw into

31
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 2: things here, and we're gonna preview that game. And we're

32
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 2: gonna preview this is a new little we talked about

33
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: how we've made some changes to the show. Of course,

34
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: we have our new NFL Plus offerings on Monday and Thursdays.

35
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 4: First one this Thursday, first one.

36
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 2: Coming up on Thursday. It's gonna be a lot of

37
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 2: fun as we head to the Dreamatorium this year. Starting

38
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 2: this year, we are doing three previews at least every

39
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 2: Wednesday show, So we're gonna hit the primetime games every

40
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: Wednesday on the podcast, and starting next week, every Wednesday,

41
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: we'll have Colleen Wolf on the show with us, which

42
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: is always a wonderful thing. Mark it is.

43
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 5: It would be wonderful to have her today, But I

44
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 5: like that build, that anticipation. I think what we're doing

45
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 5: it cleans up our Thursday show because it's our draft

46
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 5: where we draft the games and it's like we cut

47
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 5: all the fat. But I guess if that's what you

48
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 5: want to call it and put the streamline primetime fat

49
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 5: and streamlined it.

50
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 4: Yes, it's lean.

51
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: That's a better way to describe it.

52
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: It's a lean mess.

53
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 2: And speaking of Colleen, and check out the Hard Knocks

54
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 2: finale Around the NFL podcast, which was excellent yesterday. Keith

55
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: Hansis was on the show talking about his thoughts and

56
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 2: a fifty five year Jet fan and some disco fries

57
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 2: and pork rolls were served as per New Jersey diner tradition,

58
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: so it was.

59
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: A fun app. Fun app. Check it out.

60
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 2: But now Hard Knocks is over, the preseason's over, training

61
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: camp's over.

62
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 4: Our predictions aren't over, though.

63
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 2: Our predictions aren't over because coming up after the game

64
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 2: previews go get my lunch, your monster.

65
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 1: What was that face?

66
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 5: We're still using these chewing sound drops, which you know

67
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 5: I don't approve of, but that's fine.

68
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: Well just it's because it's the lunch tie into the seg.

69
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 4: If the two of you find that sound drop appeal.

70
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: Now I don't.

71
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 4: I don't have the myso that you do or.

72
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 3: The food aitarian lifestyle that you do, but I still

73
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 3: find it well disquiet.

74
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 5: We're back on the same block there, same side of

75
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 5: the street, Dan, Dragon, Mark Green.

76
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not good for the show, I have to say,

77
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 2: but I'm going to work through it if I have

78
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 2: If that's what this show is now, you guys just

79
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 2: agreeing on everything. There's a real motivation there, no mark.

80
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 2: Your your food journey is it's ever, it's ever evolving.

81
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 2: So I know, maybe that's not even fair anymore to

82
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 2: say that you're a food atarian ya.

83
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 5: Does we have to be you know, stay on your

84
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 5: heels here like things are changing week your toast or

85
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 5: your heels, Yeah, toes.

86
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 4: Heels would be like more relaxed. We'll me out of here,

87
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 4: all right, Yes, go.

88
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: Get my lunch.

Speaker 2: We'll do our sandwich props for the twenty twenty three

90
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 2: regular season, right, we keep it condensed the regular season

91
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 2: or did you guys have ones that take us through

92
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 2: the playoffs and.

93
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 4: Beyond regular season? For me?

94
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, good, that makes sense. All right, let's get

95
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 2: before we get to that. We'll have a special guest

96
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 2: at the end as well, But before any of that,

97
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 2: let's talk about the games. And yes, let's start at

98
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 2: I don't do Some people call it jiha field. Jiha

99
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 2: is a g e h a field. Yeah, I don't care.

100
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: I'll never ever, ever, ever use that arrowhead. Kansas City

101
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: Chiefs coming off another Super Bowl conquest, that brilliant back

102
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 2: and forth affair with the Philadelphia Eagles their reward. They

103
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 2: open the season at home and they get the Detroit Lions.

104
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 2: And Mark will start here that we've already touched on

105
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 2: this a couple of times, that the Lions are in

106
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: a tough spot here. They are a team that everyone

107
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 2: kind of loves universally. It seems as an NFC team

108
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 2: ready to take the next step. But going on the

109
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: road to Casey is a tough way to start the

110
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 2: season on Thursday night. But the Chiefs might not be

111
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 2: fully the Chiefs in this game.

112
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, so we'll wait and see about Travis Kelcey. That said,

113
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 5: I mean they've won.

114
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: What happened to Travis Kelcey?

115
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 5: So he has a bone bruise essentially, and then and

116
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 5: they so they went and the ACL is intact. It's

117
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 5: like it's not overly serious, but he's in a day

118
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 5: to day situation. Seems like we will not see him

119
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 5: tomorrow night because headline.

120
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 3: It was felt a little overly serious. So the headline

121
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 3: being his ACL is intact. I was just like, oh yeah, yeah,

122
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 3: a little bit. I didn't know that was a question.

123
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 3: It started.

124
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 2: The report initially was that he hyper extended his knee

125
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 2: in practice on Tuesday, and then the same thing I

126
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 2: woke up in the morning and the headline I saw

127
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 2: was the acls in attack. It was like, I didn't

128
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 2: know that was in question. No, that's a season ender, obviously.

129
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 2: If it so, If it's if it was a close call,

130
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 2: then you're right, they're probably not gonna play him. However,

131
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey doesn't miss games. He had a microfracture knee

132
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 2: surgery way back in twenty thirteen that cost him time

133
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 2: at the beginning of his career. He missed one game

134
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 2: during the COVID season when he got sidelined with a

135
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 2: positive test or a close call or whatever it was

136
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,679
Speaker 2: back then. Otherwise, this guy finds the field, he's a dog.

137
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 2: If they tell him his ACL is intact, I think

138
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 2: he'll probably be on the field. That's just my gut field.

139
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 4: I tend to think that too. For the reasons you

140
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 4: just mentioned.

141
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 5: He is sort of a absolute like durability magnet. I mean,

142
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 5: you also don't have Chris Jones if you're the Chiefs.

143
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 5: They've won eight straight Week one matchups, and I think

144
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 5: the question here with the Lions has been like, do

145
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 5: I trust that you can get out of the gates.

146
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:02,679
Speaker 2: Quickly if you're Detroit?

147
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 5: I do because the things I love about Detroit, which

148
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 5: is their offensive line, the way that they ran the

149
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,119
Speaker 5: ball last year, you got the best version of Jared Goff.

150
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 5: I think they've added some weapons that said, like, I

151
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 5: can't think of a tougher scenario than to have to

152
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 5: go deal with Andy Reid out of the gate if

153
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 5: you're Dan Campbell. It's just like it's different than other teams,

154
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 5: Like Andy Reid has probably cooked some stuff up with

155
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 5: or without Travis Kelcey that no one's seen before. I

156
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 5: think this Chiefs offense is going to come at you

157
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 5: with the run in a way that we haven't seen

158
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 5: in years past and find a new way to inflict damage.

159
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 4: Yeah.

160
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 3: I think of and Andy Reid early in the season as

161
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 3: a cheat code. He always has a couple of things

162
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 3: that other teams see and then copy. And this kickoff game,

163
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 3: I think of you know when when they were the champs.

164
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 3: But I also think of weren't they on the road

165
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 3: in New England for the kickoff game? The rare team

166
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 3: shoop that that that actually won that game because they

167
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 3: put up you know, forty burger on on the Patriots.

168
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 3: It's worrisome, but I can't think one worse thing than

169
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 3: facing the Chiefs in Week one, which would be facing

170
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 3: them with Chris Jones their most valuable defensive player by far,

171
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 3: with a healthy Travis Kelce their second most important offensive player.

172
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 3: That's a big gap between one and two. Still number two.

173
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 3: And oh, by the way, Lugerious Sneid, the best player

174
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 3: in their secondary, their best quarterback, has had an injury

175
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 3: that's kept him out most of camp.

176
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 4: He's been limited.

177
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 3: We don't know he's if he's going to play a

178
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 3: full compliment of that snaps, or if he's going to

179
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 3: even play at Also, those are three pretty key players

180
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 3: that at least give the Lions a little hope.

181
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 2: Here's the latest on Chris Jones before we turn our

182
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 2: attention to the lines. He was at a charity event

183
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: on Wednesday and he was asked how soon he could

184
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: be ready to play if he reaches a new deal.

185
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: With the Chiefs.

186
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 2: If a deal gets done, I could be out there

187
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 2: tomorrow now. Even if the deal does get done and

188
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 2: he's out there tomorrow, also something that feels totally plausible.

189
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's playing a regular compn of

190
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 2: snaps considering how everything played out this summer. So yeah,

191
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 2: you're probably getting a lesser version of Jones, or seeing

192
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 2: less of Jones, a lesser version of Kelsey, or not

193
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 2: seeing them at all. And yet the line's probably still

194
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 2: To me, Greg, it's an uphill climb. Do you think

195
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 2: they're offense because this casey defense, even with sneed potentially

196
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 2: being an issue here as well. You think the offensive

197
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 2: last year shows up for Detroit that kind of surprised

198
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: teams all year.

199
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I think it's the same offensive line. And yes,

200
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,679
Speaker 3: you're wondering which wide receiver steps up other than a

201
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 3: mon Ross Saint Brown, But to me, it doesn't matter.

202
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 3: They're a little like the Chiefs now, they're about the line,

203
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 3: and in the Lions case, the system not necessarily just

204
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 3: the quarterback. That line which is fully healthy, and actually

205
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 3: it hasn't been. They've always been like missing one piece.

206
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 3: But they're fully healthy here against the Chiefs defensive line

207
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 3: without Chris Jones. Not a lot of pressure on the edges,

208
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 3: not a lot of pressure in the middle. I mean,

209
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 3: to me, that's as big a mismatch as Mahomes versus

210
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 3: the Lions defense, because at least the Lions defense added

211
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 3: so many new pieces in the secondary. I think they're

212
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 3: very deep on the defensive line, and Mahomes is not

213
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 3: playing with all his full complement of guys around him.

214
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 3: To me, that offensive line versus Chiefs defensive line matchup

215
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 3: is such a mismatch. You could see a lot of

216
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 3: Jamir Gibbs running the ball, catching the ball down the field.

217
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 3: They say they're going to use him in different ways

218
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 3: that people aren't expecting. I don't know what that means.

219
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 3: I think they always say that. I think that means

220
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 3: as a vertical receiver. So it's it's maybe Laporta and Gibbs,

221
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 3: and that's counting on a lot for a rookie. But

222
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 3: Goff and those rookies can look better because you just

223
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 3: keep winning up front over and over.

224
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean.

225
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 5: Tim Twentyman from the Lions website noted that Gibbs could

226
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 5: potentially function as their primary downfield pass cuntra. I'm with you, Dan,

227
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 5: right when I hear that stuff, I'm like.

228
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,679
Speaker 4: That's terrible. Let's see. Well, I think it's that tells.

229
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 2: You, I mean, let's running back that they're talking. They

230
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 2: are are lacking seriously with James and Williams out, and

231
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 2: they're trying to find a way to use the running

232
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 2: back that they overdrafted as their number one deep threat.

233
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 2: It's a little bit of a red flag for me.

234
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, mean, like you don't have DJ Chark anymore. So

235
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 5: it's a lot on Saint Brown, It's probably a lot

236
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 5: on Sam Laporta, a rookie tight end who you know.

237
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm with you on this one too day

238
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 5: and where it's like these rookie tight ends, it's a

239
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 5: promising class, but you really need to see it first.

240
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 5: That said, I think like Ben Johnson is one of

241
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 5: these guys that last year became like a star coordinator,

242
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 5: extremely creative, and we'll find a way to use these

243
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 5: chiefs like pieces from different aspects. So you're missing you're

244
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 5: missing guys at wide receiver. But like I really trust that.

245
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 5: I think the version we got of Jared Goff behind

246
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 5: this line can continue. I think it's this notion that

247
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 5: he's just gonna that was a mirage and he's gonna

248
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 5: fall off a cliff like so we'll.

249
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 2: See he's a marksman if you give him time and

250
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 2: give him a pocket. Once that disappears, it's kind of over.

251
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 2: But again, Chris Jones, who knows. And I got to say,

252
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 2: one of the the sen tenants of this podcast is

253
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 2: winning that that trophy that that locks championship every year.

254
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 2: And nobody likes the idea that it's back in Greg's garage.

255
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 4: No, I mean I like it.

256
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 2: I'm with you.

257
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 3: I mean I like the fact that it's three out

258
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 3: of four for.

259
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 1: Me, but nobody likes it.

260
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 3: If it becomes four out of five, I think we

261
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,719
Speaker 3: have to think about just calling the end of the

262
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 3: competition just out of a mercy rule some sort of thing.

263
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 4: If it.

264
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 1: Have a serious conversation after the.

265
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 4: Season, people would have just appreciated about that.

266
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 2: With that said, I'm starting this thing off. I'm in

267
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 2: it to win it. I did win the title two

268
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 2: years ago. I want it back to make it two

269
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 2: out of three. I'm locking up the Chiefs and Arrowhead.

270
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 2: The spread is four and a half with it well

271
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 2: within the mirror considering some of chief the Chiefs issues here,

272
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 2: and I'm coming for you, Greg, and I'm and I'm

273
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 2: behind Patrick Mahomes at home in a kickoff game to

274
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 2: This isn't a field goal game to me. This is

275
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 2: a touchdown to ten point win. Even with these issues

276
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 2: they have on both sides of the ball, I'm feeling good.

277
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:07,959
Speaker 4: Well.

278
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 5: I mean, we talked about this before the show, and

279
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 5: I'm very tempted to do the same, but I don't

280
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 5: think that's good show business tactics.

281
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna wait on my lock till later.

282
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 5: What would be an incredible tone setting disaster then for

283
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 5: you to pick what seems like one of the most

284
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 5: lockable games out there and then the Lions do what

285
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 5: they did to the Packers.

286
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 2: Guys will just both lock up the Falcons anyway, Tomorrow

287
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 2: we'll see.

288
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 3: I mean, you can't hate on that you got a

289
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 3: chance to lock the Chiefs. In hindsight, when we're doing

290
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 3: our new TNF recap show already, it'll probably seem ridiculous

291
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 3: that it was available. But I believe in this Lions team.

292
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 3: They were the team of the Around the NFL podcast

293
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 3: last day. You guys wanted to drop them like a

294
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 3: bad habit, but I'm sticking with them. In general, I

295
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 3: don't think they're gonna win.

296
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 4: But I do think strong stage.

297
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,079
Speaker 3: I don't think they're gonna win, but I do think

298
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 3: they have the depth on the defensive line.

299
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: Listen to what you just said.

300
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 2: I'm just saying that whole build up, and then I'm

301
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 2: sticking with Then.

302
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 4: What am I gonna do pick them in this spot?

303
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 3: But yeah, when it was at exactly the number was

304
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 3: at seven at one point, then it was at six

305
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 3: and a half, and then it kept and then Kelsey

306
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 3: thing happened. Now it's down to four. Net like, I

307
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 3: liked the Lion's side of that. If I had to choose,

308
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 3: I still like the Lions side of that. It is

309
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 3: a first time around, though for this secondary when we

310
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 3: haven't talked about it too much. Cam Sutton coming off

311
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 3: an injury, Mosley and not coming off an injury, new

312
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 3: to the team, Mosley coming off an injury, Ced Deuce

313
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 3: new to the team, Brian Branch new the team. I'm

314
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 3: excited about this group, but it is the first game

315
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 3: of the year against the Chiefs, so I just think

316
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 3: in a shootout, you take the check.

317
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 2: I'm glad you said that, because earlier you had said

318
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 2: that they remade the secondary and they have these these

319
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: weapons on offense and the offensive line is intact. That's

320
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 2: all good, but yeah, sometimes this stuff takes time, especially,

321
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: I mean, think about their defense at the beginning of

322
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 2: last year before Aaron, They're they're firing the defensive line coach,

323
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 2: They're and embarrassed by the Patriots, and then they brought

324
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 2: it in for landing in a really impressive way, which

325
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 2: is fed into all this optimism around Detroit. But I

326
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 2: just think it's asking too much week one for the line.

327
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 2: So if they do look out, just give us a

328
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 2: good game. I think it's gonna be in the thirties.

329
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 2: I think you know that over is gonna be reached

330
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 2: in a nice little Week one.

331
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 4: I'm hopeful they can keep it close.

332
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 5: But this does feel like an outlier of an opener,

333
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 5: while there is there is a variance where like, yeah,

334
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 5: maybe it's like forty to fourteen and settle down on Detroit.

335
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 5: I mean, I just mean it's been a compared to

336
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 5: other openers where it's like two absolutely Kelsey injury Titans.

337
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: An you think that's not.

338
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 3: Gonna happen Kelsey injury. Yeah, Chris Jones. Like Jones, he

339
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 3: is such a force multiplier where he helps the guys

340
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 3: around him, who I'm not that impressed with in general,

341
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 3: So him not there Canarius Tony is expected to have

342
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 3: limited snaps, but isn't you know really They're like they

343
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 3: have had a kind of a rough month relatively.

344
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 1: All right, let us move to Sunday Night football.

345
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 4: Hell yeah, honk fist oh.

346
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 2: I did not. I did not realize this too till

347
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 2: right now. Both Sunday Night and Monday Night will be

348
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 2: played at jet Life Stadium.

349
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 4: So that's never happened. That's that's never happened.

350
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 2: That foa. Oh, the Giants fans are upset about jet

351
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 2: Life Stadium on a thread with some East Coasters.

352
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: They don't like it.

353
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 2: Are you hate that Aaron Rodgers?

354
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 3: I mean, how did a great job by Aaron Rodgers?

355
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 3: But how did it take this long for that nickname

356
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 3: even to come up come about?

357
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 4: I guess they didn't have that.

358
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 2: They like sucked for the entire time at Life Stadium

359
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 2: has been open, like literally it opened I think what

360
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 2: in twenty eleven. Yeah, that's it.

361
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like the life of the Jets is not anything

362
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 4: people were seeking.

363
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 2: Maybe it was open during the recks there. I don't remember.

364
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 4: It's been a long time though, so we had the

365
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys.

366
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 3: It was because I think I saw Brett I saw

367
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 3: I know, I saw Brett Favre play there and that

368
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 3: was before that.

369
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 2: Maybe it was two thousand and nine. Dallas Cowboys, New

370
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 2: York Giants NFC East who uh both both are entering

371
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 2: this season.

372
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: Greg feeling very good.

373
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 2: The Cowboys coming off back to back double digit win seasons.

374
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 2: They think they could win this division and finally get

375
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 2: over the hump and get back to at least the

376
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 2: NFC title game. The Giants, they came out of nowhere

377
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 2: last year, shocked everybody and made the playoffs, and they

378
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 2: believe they could take the next step.

379
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: What are you seeing in this game?

380
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 3: I'm seeing a matchup last year that DeMarcus Lawrence specifically

381
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 3: was a monster, And to me, that speaks to just

382
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 3: what's great about this Cowboys team that I don't think

383
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 3: gets enough attention, which is just their defensive line, s depth.

384
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 3: It's just kind of crazy that they have Sam Williams,

385
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 3: who on any other team I think would be starting.

386
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 3: We're talking about making the leap type of guy. He's

387
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 3: a second year pass rusher. Dwort's Armstrong who's one of

388
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 3: the best reserve pass rushers in the league.

389
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 4: And then you have Lawrence.

390
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 3: Who's still playing this well across from my defensive Player

391
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 3: of the Year favorite, Micah Parsons, and Parsons last year

392
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 3: had one game where we really did quite well against

393
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 3: Andrew Thomas in one game less So and Andrew Thomas

394
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 3: is an all pro type of guy, but Evan Neil

395
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 3: is not, and he wasn't last year as a first

396
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 3: round pick. And Lawrence ate him for lunch last year

397
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 3: in those two matchups and really harassed Daniel Jones, who

398
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 3: did not play well in the first one of those games.

399
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,719
Speaker 3: The other was on Thanksgiving. It was a back and

400
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 3: forth game. But it's crazy, Mark, like, they haven't beaten

401
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott. And I know not to put too much

402
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 3: into these, that's with previous teams, but they haven't beaten

403
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott in the last ten times they played.

404
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's although this Giants, this incarnation of the Giants,

405
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 5: I think is even different from last year's And I

406
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 5: feel like there's no team in the league that people

407
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 5: sort of universally seem to be down on than what

408
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 5: the Giants at, what they did last year, what it

409
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,959
Speaker 5: actually meant, and what it means for this season, like

410
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 5: this team, because the one thing the Cowboys did on

411
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 5: defense was they were a takeaway machine and they found

412
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 5: a way to hassle teams week after week that the

413
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 5: Giant's under day ball last year had the second fewest giveaways.

414
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 5: And I think part of it is you add someone

415
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 5: like Jalen Hyatt to the mix. What we've been hearing

416
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 5: about Daryl Darren Waller could potentially completely change this offense

417
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 5: if you get the good version of him.

418
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 4: And I think people are a little too low on

419
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones.

420
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 5: I know he got paid a lot of money, but

421
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,719
Speaker 5: I think we're on the edge of like a Daniel

422
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 5: Jones like evolution under day ball.

423
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 4: We're gonna see more elements of his game.

424
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 5: They were not a deep ball team last year on

425
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 5: any level, but he was one of the most efficient

426
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 5: right He was the most efficient running quarterback in the league.

427
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 4: And there are Josh Allen elements to his game.

428
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 5: Chris Collinsworth noted that after watch kind of deeply watching

429
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 5: his tape that he saw elements of Patrick Mahomes in

430
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,199
Speaker 5: terms of like, oh not stare. I know it sounds crazy,

431
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 5: but not just automatically going to his first read with

432
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 5: tucking the ball in and deciding what to do with it,

433
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 5: creating space getting his wide receivers open. So I think

434
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 5: the passing attack from Daniel Jones has a chance to

435
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 5: make a big leap, especially with Waller there.

436
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 4: And I think people are just a little too low

437
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 4: on the Giants.

438
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 3: I love it as defenses, I think that was the key,

439
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 3: and he kind of did on that. It was a

440
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:03,199
Speaker 3: Thanksgiving game. I remember it right against the Cowboys, but

441
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 3: he took a lot of sacks in those two games

442
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 3: and he hasn't done it against the big defenses.

443
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 4: He kind of ate up some bad ones.

444
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's kind of the genius of Brian Dable

445
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 2: that he did it with Josh Allen. He kind of

446
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 2: took over and diagnosed what Josh Allen does well and

447
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,439
Speaker 2: had to accentuate what he does well and turned him

448
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 2: into a superstar or helped turn him into a superstar.

449
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 2: And then he did the same thing with Daniel Jones

450
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,399
Speaker 2: and looked at what he did well, what he did wrong,

451
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 2: and what you saw last year was a lot more scrambling,

452
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,159
Speaker 2: a lot more first reads and taking off picking up

453
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 2: first downs. He's near the top of the league of

454
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 2: all quarterbacks in terms of rushing yards rushing for first downs,

455
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 2: and it made him a much more efficient player and

456
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:45,120
Speaker 2: a less turnover prone player. Now the book is out Giant,

457
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 2: the teams know that's what the Giants how they want

458
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 2: to use Jones. I think the all that talk about

459
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 2: Darren Waller, that's what's so great about the games coming

460
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 2: now because now we can see after all this talk

461
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,199
Speaker 2: about how much of a difference Darren Waller we'll make

462
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 2: for this offense in the red zone and giving Jones

463
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 2: a true threat. Dark Waller hasn't been that guy for

464
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 2: two years, so they're banking on him being healthy and

465
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 2: kind of being reinvigorated within this offense. And we're gonna

466
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 2: see it against the Cowboys, because what it teams like

467
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 2: to do when they have a shining new toy. As

468
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 2: soon as they get their first chance, they're gonna do

469
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 2: everything in their power to make Waller a star in

470
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 2: this game.

471
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: And I want to see what kind of production he is.

472
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: I'm very curious what dave O will do kind of

473
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 3: for a second act here because Daniel Bellinger was a

474
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,959
Speaker 3: good rookie last year, a good rookie tight end if

475
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 3: he had stayed healthy the whole season, like he had

476
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 3: a better rookie season on some level than like Kyle

477
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 3: Pitts was having for Atlanta. That's a nice little two

478
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 3: tight end group. I'm not saying he's that sort of talent.

479
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 3: Now you have all these receivers who actually stayed healthy,

480
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 3: I'm very curious how will attack And I do think

481
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 3: if the Giants can win this game, it's because their

482
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 3: defensive line steps up another level because the defensive line.

483
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 3: Dexter Lawrence was their best player last year, but Kavon

484
00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 3: has a chance to be better even than he was,

485
00:21:59,560 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 3: and he was.

486
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 4: But you do want a beer.

487
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 3: O Jalari's there, like it could be a very good

488
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 3: defensive line. Tyler Smith did. The Cowboys starting guard had

489
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 3: a hamstring injury that they had an mry On. They've

490
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 3: changed around their offensive line, so that's something where they

491
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 3: could keep this game low scoring and ugly by getting

492
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 3: a lot of pressure on Dak. But this is the

493
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 3: same team, to be fair, that you know couldn't beat

494
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 3: Cooper Rush last year.

495
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 4: No they couldn't.

496
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 5: I mean it's also you know, I know, you move

497
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 5: on from the offensive coordinator. But with Dak in the

498
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 5: lineup last year, the Cowboys averaged thirty points a game,

499
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 5: the most by any starting quarterback. He also missed five

500
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 5: games through fifteen interceptions. I know a lot of them

501
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 5: weren't on him, but I just feel like Dak already

502
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,239
Speaker 5: is under immense pressure. And I think if you're Mike

503
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 5: McCarthy and you're calling plays now, it's like there is

504
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 5: some pressure there to get out of the gate quickly.

505
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 4: Like a loss to the Giants would be a mega disaster.

506
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 3: Going against two rookie cornerbacks that I've said it before here,

507
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 3: but that that's pretty interesting Deontay Banks and then Hawkins

508
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 3: their six round pick.

509
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,919
Speaker 1: The running backs where nobody's underlock. That's true. Oh, by

510
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: the way, there.

511
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 3: Is a new our favorites by the way road Favorites.

512
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 3: I think it's like two and a half.

513
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 4: Really not surprising.

514
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 3: It seems about right. That's not that's in the nether zone.

515
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 3: But yeah, they are slight favorites.

516
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 2: Hang on one second here, I gotta find this from

517
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: Davial Lely, who does great job on the desk and

518
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 2: then he'll save me send me stuff occasionally that I

519
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 2: would like. And here is this is on Twitter from

520
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 2: Calvin Watkin. What a coworker. Yeah, Mike McCarthy said, the

521
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 2: theme of the season is carpe omnia. It's Latin, right,

522
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 2: and that means sees everything. The Cowboys have an empty

523
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 2: picture frame in front of the team meeting room. Picture

524
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 2: says a one thousand words. He said, wait, what, I

525
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 2: don't know anything that everything I just read.

526
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 3: So there's an empty picture frame and they have to

527
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 3: make the picture.

528
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: Now.

529
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 4: I like the what was the phrase again, car skarpe omnia? No,

530
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 4: I like that because sees everything? Right.

531
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 3: If you if you just seize the day, that's just

532
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 3: one day. When's this game played? Dan, Well, it's not

533
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 3: Sunday football, it's Sunday night football.

534
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 4: You leave a big hole there.

535
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 2: In general, Yeah, strategy, there's three hundred and sixty five days.

536
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 2: Sees the day? Or what day? What about the rest?

537
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 2: This is everything. Good job by McCarthy.

538
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 4: Everything everything includes you know, positives.

539
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 2: But again, Cowboys have an empty picture frame in front

540
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 2: of the team meeting room. Picture says a thousand words.

541
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 4: He says, overly complex. Yeah, this is too much.

542
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 3: If Jonathan Gannon did this, everyone would be crushing him.

543
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 3: But you know, Macarthy's got it.

544
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 2: It's kind of a mojo moment though he's talking. It

545
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 2: all kind of comes back to mojo moments. The running back.

546
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 2: The running backs are Saquon Barkley on one side, Tony

547
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 2: Pollard on the other. Barkley had a big bounce back

548
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,880
Speaker 2: season last year. We'll see what he can do as

549
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 2: an encore. What is Pollard status? Does he all systems

550
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 2: go or.

551
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 3: It's interesting because he never he didn't play in the preseason,

552
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 3: but yes, they are talking about him like he's going

553
00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 3: to get a pretty heavy workload.

554
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,919
Speaker 2: I think, weirdly, not a lot of conversation about the

555
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:04,199
Speaker 2: guy got off the broken leg, and.

556
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 3: That is a concern and a guy that's never been

557
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,360
Speaker 3: that guy as consistently as a twenty plus touch guy.

558
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,719
Speaker 3: So I'd like to see a little Douce fawn on

559
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 3: my Think you Will first Sunday Night on NBC. I

560
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 3: see U, NBC executives, I know what you're doing. What's

561
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 3: the number one matchup in the NFL in terms of

562
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 3: ratings over the last fifteen years?

563
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 1: Uh fifteen years?

564
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,919
Speaker 3: It's Giants Eagles is giving you the answer if you

565
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 3: look at I mean, wait, what did I just say?

566
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 3: Giants Cowboys?

567
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 4: I blew it.

568
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 3: I blew it tough, the season's over.

569
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: What about someone was like the Colts Pats games.

570
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 4: But just consistently if you look at okay, no, that

571
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 4: makes sense.

572
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 3: And Giants Cowboys are like five or six of the

573
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 3: top ten always in Sunday Night football.

574
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 4: They've done this before, most so.

575
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 3: And then you put it on week one, which is

576
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 3: often the biggest week of the year. This is the

577
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 3: biggest match of the biggest week of the They're gonna

578
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 3: they're looking for They're looking.

579
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 5: For Bondo and you know, I look, anyone was myssedify

580
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 5: how this wound up being like the open Sunday Night.

581
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 1: But there's always been.

582
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 2: It used to happen a lot on the show when

583
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,679
Speaker 2: one or neither of the teams was relevant, like come on,

584
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 2: let's grow up, Peter Pan. It gets monster ratings and

585
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 2: that's all that matters. That's what TV is.

586
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 5: I think you're pointing to the fact that the Cowboys

587
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,919
Speaker 5: were often dinged by certain people on the show for

588
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 5: sucking and still getting massive primetime share the money. Well,

589
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 5: of course, I think about you were children back then

590
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 5: when we now were that way.

591
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: Let's pick this game, tough one.

592
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,879
Speaker 2: I kind of like the g men and they're building here.

593
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 2: I'm going to pick the Cowboys to win the division.

594
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 2: Something gonna start on with the loss on the road.

595
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,719
Speaker 3: No, it's it's a division game. I do like division

596
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 3: games a week one just gives a little extra.

597
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: I like I like a twenty four to twenty Giants win.

598
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 3: How about wow, I you know I was wrong. It's

599
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 3: a three and a half point number, and that's.

600
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 4: A little disrespectful. I think it is the Giants.

601
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 3: But this is where I'd probably try to thread the needle,

602
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 3: as as we like to say on a game debut,

603
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 3: where I'd probably picked the Giants to uh cover that

604
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 3: even though it's small, and pick the Cowboys to win.

605
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 6: Uh.

606
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 5: Well, you know I do that little picks thing each

607
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,199
Speaker 5: week where that little picks thing, well because we sell it.

608
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: Here's what you do.

609
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 4: Like no one knows about the ones you get wrong.

610
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 5: But if you pick like it's a sharp underdog and

611
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 5: like you're one of the only of the ten people

612
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,160
Speaker 5: that did. You got all these other these people from

613
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 5: New York saying like New Jersey great job, you believe

614
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 5: in us. I picked the Giants, and I'm picking them

615
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 5: right here. I'll say twenty one to twenty right, so

616
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 5: jee men.

617
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 3: I have to bring you guys. Know, my son's a

618
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 3: big NFL plus guy, huge, you know. It just loves

00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 3: loves the you know, loves the live game, loves the

620
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,919
Speaker 3: local games, loves the primetime games. You can watch this

621
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 3: one on a NFL Plus. Giants, Cowboys, good plug.

622
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 4: Good way to you know, essentially use your child to

623
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 4: uh write.

624
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 3: Well, he's doing it without that even we even wanting to.

625
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:56,919
Speaker 3: They had this thing up and I was like, what

626
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 3: is he even watching? It's like a voiceover. It's very snappy,

627
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 3: really well done. It's predictions, and I realized it's it's

628
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 3: the Sessler group prediction.

629
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: Mark Ed Sessler.

630
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 3: They talk about it and then they show up the

631
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 3: predictions and I got it up into it.

632
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,199
Speaker 4: But I've got some news for you.

633
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 3: I don't know if you entered your eight this week

634
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,440
Speaker 3: they had all ten up. No, mar and I didn't Sessler.

635
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 3: I didn't see.

636
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: Something Mark week one. Baby.

637
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 5: I know exactly what happened because we were literally taping

638
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 5: a show while the deadline was passing.

639
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 3: So I was like, did have a weird spot that

640
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 3: seemed almost empty.

641
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:30,880
Speaker 4: I think they were holding it.

642
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 5: It's they are, but the I think the actual voiceover

643
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 5: individual for those you know these people, I think I

644
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 5: think they inserted his production prediction maybe and instead of

645
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:39,719
Speaker 5: mine for this first week.

646
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 2: One more Okay, let's keep an eye on that going forward.

647
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 2: One more prediction.

648
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 4: To me at the reaction, I was like, Dak.

649
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 2: Prescott will throw two more crucial interceptions in this game

650
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 2: that the echo chamber will say, we're not his fault.

651
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 5: Okay, Like there were a couple of year that were like,

652
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 5: you know, tipped, Here's that he literally was one of

653
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 5: the best quarterbacks in the league at preventing interceptions until

654
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 5: last year.

655
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 4: That's just a fact.

656
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: I'm not saying.

657
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 2: I'm just saying that's what's gonna happen in my mind

658
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 2: mind on Sunday. Let's take a break, and then we'll

659
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 2: get to a certain Monday night football game of incredible intrigue.

660
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 2: All right, we're back again. If you're just joining us,

661
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 2: which would be weird, it's a podcast. Maybe you got

662
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 2: into the car with your buddy, and your buddy was

663
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 2: listening to the first half hour.

664
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 1: Of the show.

665
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 3: Maybe you're a huge fan of this game. You looked

666
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 3: at that description where our producer at times does the

667
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 3: time codes and he just had to get to this

668
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 3: game coded it.

669
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 5: You've got two friends driving around town together.

670
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 2: In this scenario. Just listen, just listening. Very bizarre. That's

671
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 2: your thumb, Eric, Is it anything weird happening? It's actually

672
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 2: surprisingly like any growth. That's what we're looking for.

673
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: Growth.

674
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 7: I mean it if honestly, it don't hold him up,

675
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 7: You wouldn't. You wouldn't like, it wouldn't catch your eye

676
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 7: too bad. The nail looks kind of fed up. The

677
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 7: thumb itself is actually kind of it feels weird.

678
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 2: Mark and I were looking for the sci fi element.

679
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 2: If you have any flesh growth, yeah, no, what you

680
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 2: were told by your doctor?

681
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 4: The doctor.

682
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 2: Are you sure that was a doctor? We don't know.

683
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 2: It's not. When when your wife handed the doctor a

684
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 2: part of flesh in an ice bag and he's like,

685
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 2: what's that for and then threw it into the toxic

686
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 2: waste basket, that was a bit.

687
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: Of a red flag.

688
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, he did seem lost, like.

689
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 2: He couldn't even fathom why your wife was in there

690
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 2: with that bag or unable to piece together what was happening,

691
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 2: Red Flag.

692
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: Was this a real hospital?

693
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 4: Yes, it was like a vet, like when the gangsters have.

694
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 2: To go to the vet, the guy that they pay off,

695
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 2: and they have to do it in the basement.

696
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 4: Always, and it's weird that they will be all right.

697
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 2: The gunshot, it didn't catch any major organs. I'm in

698
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 2: a lot of pain.

699
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: You all be fine. Stop being a cry baby. You

700
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: know that old thing.

701
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 4: That is the thing.

702
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 3: It's also weird like that he had the toxic waste

703
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 3: in his locker and it was like, you know, right

704
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 3: underneath like Doc's tasty treats.

705
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 7: It was very They just drenched the thumb and like

706
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 7: whiskey and get a piece of tree to bite the.

707
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 2: Old the old vet in the back pocket, the old

708
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 2: piece of organized crime.

709
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 1: Anyway, Monday night football.

710
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 4: That's the show right here, that's the show. Stum, It's

711
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 4: not just the football, it's the other stuff too.

712
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: Okay, Uh, It's finally here.

713
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 2: After months of anticipation, Aaron Rodgers will make his debut

714
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 2: in a game that counts against of all teams, the

715
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 2: Mighty Buffalo Bills. Eric Roberts his own Buffalo Bills. They

716
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 2: are back to back to back division champs.

717
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: Uh and again.

718
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 2: Feel and mark like a super Bowl or bust year

719
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 2: for the Bills. So to get this Bills team on

720
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 2: the road and Monday Night against this Jets team that

721
00:31:56,160 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 2: that arrived on defense last year were quarterback short and

722
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 2: got Aaron E. Fing Rodgers, Now that is a great

723
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 2: way to end the week.

724
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 5: This is the game. It is just like the most

725
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,239
Speaker 5: mysterious sporting event. And like I get it. I think

726
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 5: it's it gets tiresome to say that we're gonna be

727
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 5: fascinated by X, Y and Z, but this is the

728
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 5: one that sits there out on Monday Night. Absolutely because

729
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 5: the Jets have been treated in a way that few

730
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 5: sports teams are with having proven literal to nothing and

731
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 5: it's not default, but it's like they are the headline.

732
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 5: The Bills are not the Bills somehow have been superseded here.

733
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:32,479
Speaker 5: And I think one thing that you can point to

734
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 5: from a year ago because what carries over Robert SAWA's defense,

735
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 5: This Jets defense, the defensive line, I think is as

736
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 5: good as anything the NFL has at any position group.

737
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 5: We've talked about that and Josh Allen last year he

738
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 5: struggled against the Jets. They knocked him off in one game.

739
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 5: He averaged one hundred fewer passing yards against the Jets

740
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 5: than any other team. And this is Josh Allen. I

741
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 5: think this is a you know, post Brian Daball. There

742
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 5: have been some issues. I know there was an injury

743
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 5: last year. He's still fantastic on the ground and does

744
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 5: things that few other people can do. But he is

745
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 5: accountable for twenty nine interceptions over the last two seasons,

746
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 5: which is the most in the league. And I would

747
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 5: just say that this Jets defense, it's not just every

748
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 5: The attention is all on Aaron Rodgers and understandably on

749
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 5: hard knocks to begin with. But I think this is

750
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 5: a defense that's going to generate turnovers on a weekly basis,

751
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 5: going to generate massive punishment on a quarter.

752
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 2: They do that last year, by the way, turnovers, that

753
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 2: was the one issue with the defense. They could flip

754
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 2: that out of the bottom of the league.

755
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 5: But I think that the like I go back to

756
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 5: this like Steelers Bills preseason game, and I guess just

757
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 5: wipe away everything from the preseason. But I thought Josh

758
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 5: Allen had looked uncomfortable at times in this preseason like

759
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 5: seeing pressure that wasn't there. And I just wonder if

760
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 5: this Jets defense at home, if they can respond quickly.

761
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 5: You're asking them to grow up in a minute. We're

762
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 5: going to find out the truth right away about who

763
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 5: the Jets are. But I love this opportunity for what

764
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 5: they're good at to thrive against Josh Allen.

765
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 3: I think it could really be a defensive game. And

766
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 3: I predicted that the Bills win the division when we

767
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 3: did our season predictions, and so I go into this

768
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 3: one thinking, look, everyone's looking past this team.

769
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 4: They are favored the Bills in this game. But when

770
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:08,280
Speaker 4: I think.

771
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 3: About those matchups, that does matter. Last year he averaged

772
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 3: under six yards per attempt against the Jets. He had

773
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 3: two interceptions, no touchdowns in a game that Zach Neilson

774
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 3: started at quarterback and one I mean, I think that

775
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 3: matters because you are just looking at the Jets' biggest

776
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 3: strength by far up front on the defensive line, and

777
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 3: it's not just one guy, it's six guys versus what,

778
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 3: in my mind, is the Bill's biggest weakness if you

779
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 3: had to choose one, certainly on their offense and maybe

780
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 3: on their whole roster, which is their offensive line, and

781
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:48,880
Speaker 3: we've already seen Robert Salah matches up well here, and

782
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 3: so after thinking about it more, Josh Allen's gonna have

783
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 3: to get the rid of the ball quickly and he's

784
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 3: gonna have to maybe pick on the Jets' safeties getting

785
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 3: the ball over the middle of the field. But I

786
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 3: like this matchup for the Jets because of the defense.

787
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 3: I think it's a defensive game both ways.

788
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 2: Well, look at last year, so you mentioned it, Robert

789
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 2: sala and that Jets defense had Josh Allen in a blender.

790
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 2: It was the high point of their season. I believe

791
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 2: it was about Week nine or ten, twenty seventeen win

792
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 2: at the Metal Lands where Allen really struggled. He took

793
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,359
Speaker 2: a vicious hit that stuck with him for the rest

794
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 2: of the season, an injury that really I think a

795
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 2: lot of people attributed to affecting his play down the stretch.

796
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:31,879
Speaker 2: And then when the Jets were in their free fall

797
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 2: later in the season, they still hung with them and

798
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 2: I think they put maybe twenty points and.

799
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 3: He had one hundred and forty seven yards and was

800
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 3: sacked three times eight on the year.

801
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 2: So now again teams adjust, last year is last year

802
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 2: this year is this year. But we don't need to

803
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 2: look at this game and say, oh, you know Stefan Diggs, who,

804
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 2: by the way, has to deal with Sauce and the Bills.

805
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 1: They're going to be off and running.

806
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:58,799
Speaker 2: Now remember last year, Like we were at the game

807
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 2: when the season started last year, the Street and the

808
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,279
Speaker 2: Bills hit the ground running and they beat up on

809
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 2: the Rams and they looked unstoppable. I just would be

810
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 2: really surprised if the Jets might lose this game.

811
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:10,840
Speaker 1: Certainly possible.

812
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 2: It's a very tough game, but I'd be very surprised

813
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 2: that the defense faltered and played poorly. I agree, I

814
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:17,879
Speaker 2: think this is going to be a defensive back and forth.

815
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 2: I think the Aaron Rodgers stands, myself included with the

816
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 2: Jets are gonna want him to throw four touchdowns and

817
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:24,439
Speaker 2: have the storybook game.

818
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:25,879
Speaker 1: I don't think that happens either.

819
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 2: This feels to me like a twenty seven type game

820
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,799
Speaker 2: at twenty seventeen type game that can go either way.

821
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean structurally, I think the Jets have to

822
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 5: win a lot of these games this season in a

823
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 5: really rough schedule out of the gate with their defense,

824
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 5: so it's not just going to be Aaron Rodgers. I

825
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 5: think that X factor you talked about that Bill's Rams

826
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,799
Speaker 5: game from a year ago, it was the pass rush

827
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 5: that completely exposed a totally faulty Rams offensive line. You

828
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 5: need Dwayne Brown, McKai becton to show up and play well.

829
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,359
Speaker 5: And that's not just this week, but it's like there

830
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,879
Speaker 5: are Jets questions along their line as well. I do

831
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 5: think though, that why Aaron Rodgers can succeed sooner than

832
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 5: you'd expect potentially, is that they've surrounded him with players

833
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 5: he's comfortable with. Nathaniel Hackett was a mess last year,

834
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 5: but under Nathaniel Hackett in recent days, Aaron Rodgers.

835
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,399
Speaker 2: My name is Nathaniel Hackett. Thanks, it's nice to see

836
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:12,839
Speaker 2: you out here.

837
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 5: I don't Yeah, it's like he sounds like a funny guy,

838
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,280
Speaker 5: But I like Aaron Rodgers an eleven touchdowns and thirteen

839
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 5: picks under Hackett in this past three seasons, underneath them

840
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 5: with one hundred and nine point two rating and two MVPs. So,

841
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 5: no matter what you think about what happened last year,

842
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 5: if you're Sean Payton or someone else, Hackett and Rodgers

843
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 5: worked together, I think you put Rogers in an environment

844
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 5: where if the line stays together like he can succeed quickly.

845
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, getting deep shots against Micah Hyde and Poyer and

846
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:44,879
Speaker 3: that deep safety group.

847
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 4: Is gonna be tough.

848
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,319
Speaker 3: But I do think the secondary receivers like who can

849
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 3: win those matchups?

850
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:51,720
Speaker 4: Do you like the matchups a little better?

851
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 3: I think for the Jets of a Lizard or a

852
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:59,239
Speaker 3: mcole Hardman winning against some of these secondary cornerbacks. For

853
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 3: the Bills, they're still kind of rotating. They're still looking

854
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 3: for their secondary depth. Whereas for the Bills, if Diggs

855
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 3: is taken out, you're counting on Trent Sherfield and Dalton

856
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,280
Speaker 3: Kincaid and maybe they get it going. But in tougher

857
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 3: matchups again events a very deep Jets secondary.

858
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:16,799
Speaker 4: No one talks about DJ Reid.

859
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 5: No, you know, there's Saucecinger, but DJ Reid actually did

860
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 5: a lot more of covering number one wide outs a

861
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 5: year ago.

862
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 2: J Reid was the unexpected like find on their defense.

863
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,719
Speaker 2: I wish I need the season to start. DJ Reid

864
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 2: is out here telling the media this week that the

865
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,359
Speaker 2: Jets could be the eighty five Bears on defense. That's

866
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 2: the type of stuff I don't need right now. And

867
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 2: now it's time. Just don't pump yourself any more than necessary.

868
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: Let's get to it.

869
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,479
Speaker 2: I think that besides, with the Rogers side of things,

870
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 2: the thing that I most want to see is in

871
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,879
Speaker 2: a game situation, this Jets defensive line, because that has

872
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 2: a chance to really power the entire team. And I

873
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 2: don't even know what's going on with the Carl Lawson

874
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,240
Speaker 2: at this point with a back issue that continues to linger.

875
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 2: But the old parcels'sm Gregie, he's a progress stopper potentially

876
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 2: at this point. With Jermaine Johnson and Will McDonald and

877
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 2: Quinn Williams and John Franklin Myers, Michael Clemens, these guys

878
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 2: are gonna go get Bryce huff is a nice, complimentary

879
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 2: guy that they just keep coming at you. This is

880
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 2: what Salah has been trying to build since he got there,

881
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,399
Speaker 2: and now they get to unleash it in prime time

882
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 2: with everyone watching for four quarters. I'm really excited to

883
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 2: see how that defense looks in the front and how

884
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills try to combat that, because that's gonna

885
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 2: play into you would imagine the game plan for Buffalo

886
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 2: is we know they're dogs and they're gonna be coming

887
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 2: after us, so that might limit their ability to attack

888
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 2: the safeties with deep shots, because they're gonna try more

889
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 2: of a quick hitting affair on their offense.

890
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,359
Speaker 3: Something quick over the middle. And this is why I'm

891
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 3: so glad they gave Troy and Joe all that money.

892
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 3: This just this is a game that deserves a little

893
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 3: Troy and Joe. You got Gardner versus Digs. Maybe the

894
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 3: best cornerback wide receive of her matchup we're seeing twice

895
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 3: a year. It just deserves this whole thing deserves a little.

896
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 3: This is why they game all that.

897
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 1: I'm neivous.

898
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was gonna ask at this point, I like

899
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 4: that I'm not going to be here.

900
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:14,359
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be bunkered up with my sons and my wife,

901
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 2: who loves hard knocks no matter who the team is.

902
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 2: She said she's gonna be following the Jets this year

903
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 2: as a result, speaking of hard knock.

904
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 3: Finally, I mean I took how is she in her marriage?

905
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 2: I'm never around? You know that's true. Did you happen

906
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:29,320
Speaker 2: to catch the finale?

907
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 1: Mark?

908
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 4: I have not seen that yet. Well, at the first

909
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 4: fifteen minutes.

910
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 2: The show takes a hard left turn about midway through

911
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 2: into an Unsolved Mysteries episode. Can we play a little

912
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:47,480
Speaker 2: bit of Aaron Rodgers talking about in UFO sighting in

913
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 2: New Jersey in two thousand when was he drafted five

914
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:53,479
Speaker 2: two thousand and five?

915
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 8: We just stood frozen, the three of us on the

916
00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 8: front stoop of Steve's house, and the seconds later we

917
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 8: heard the real recognizable sound of fighter jets going that

918
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 8: seemed to be chasing this object. And again we just

919
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 8: stood there in just disbelief for another few minutes. Nobody

920
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 8: said a word, and then we all kind of looked

921
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 8: each other like did we just see what? We think

922
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 8: we just saw? What was that?

923
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 4: I love it?

924
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 1: It's complete.

925
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 2: Man is coming from a man who fans like myself

926
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 2: have tied everything to talking like that.

927
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 5: He's spoken about UFOs before, I believe in the past,

928
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 5: And you know, I think like this, this summer has

929
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,239
Speaker 5: been good for Aaron Rodgers. Hard knocks has been good,

930
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 5: and like where if he would have said that a

931
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 5: year ago, I think it would have been chuckled off

932
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 5: the stage. But Greg, I know you've been a little

933
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 5: suspicious of Aaron Rodgers the human are you do?

934
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:52,319
Speaker 6: You like?

935
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 1: We're just moving off the alien stuff now.

936
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm saying I think that he's telling the

937
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 5: truth of the variance he had. Baker Mayfield saw you.

938
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 5: I guess that's if you you know there's these I

939
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 5: didn't believe that. You didn't believe that.

940
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 1: No, I didn't believe that.

941
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 3: No, I don't remember Rogers, but not Mayfield because he's

942
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 3: better if Okay, in place for the jest, sense.

943
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:15,840
Speaker 5: Kind of ran out of football content there on the

944
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 5: on maybe at the tail end of Hard Knocks a

945
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 5: little bit, okay.

946
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 2: Keith Hansers, by the way, on the Hard Knocks podcast,

947
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 2: told a great story of being twenty years old in

948
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 2: the early seventies and waiting at Hofstra University at the

949
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:33,319
Speaker 2: dorms out in Long Island, and his buddy Pete and

950
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 2: Peppos who went who played football at Hofstra, said, every night,

951
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 2: Joe's the last one before before a curfew. He will

952
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 2: every night without fel get there right at the curfew

953
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,040
Speaker 2: eleven PM. So let's go have a couple of beers

954
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 2: and come back here right at curfew, And sure enough

955
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 2: Joe comes barreling around the corner, Wow, at exactly ten

956
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 2: point fifty eight in his Cadillac, and my dad meets

957
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,879
Speaker 2: Joe Namath and go check out the episode to hear

958
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:05,480
Speaker 2: the rest of it.

959
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 5: But how how has he not told us that story before?

960
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 5: I've heard the story, okay, because I mean I've hung

961
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 5: out with ye. It was talked about the Jets.

962
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 2: It was very good work by Keith. Unprompted to bring

963
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 2: up that story.

964
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 5: You were going to say he also saw a UFO.

965
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 5: Apparently everyone but us is.

966
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:22,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know what I gotta I've seen.

967
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 4: The Colleen's father has seen one too.

968
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked about that story again as well, but

969
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 2: I would I'm curious next time Keith's on, will get

970
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 2: him on at some point to check in with the Jets.

971
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 2: Let's ask him what he thinks about UFO. All right,

972
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 2: all right, any other thoughts? How about the game? Let's

973
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:36,799
Speaker 2: pick this one.

974
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,760
Speaker 3: I think I changed my mind as I was talking

975
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 3: and will take the Jets in a whoam in this

976
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,280
Speaker 3: week one game. I like to build better for the season,

977
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 3: but I think the Jets win this game.

978
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm just going with my heart on this a

979
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 5: little bit. I think that the Jets nip him, and

980
00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 5: I think that MetLife is going to be as on

981
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 5: fire as it's ever been since the crescendoing heights of

982
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:02,160
Speaker 5: Rex Ryan.

983
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 1: I don't think I don't think that's a good call.

984
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 2: I don't think it'll ever be as hot in terms

985
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,400
Speaker 2: of a Jets game as it's gonna be when Rogers

986
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,760
Speaker 2: takes the field. Of course, I'll take the Jets to

987
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:17,480
Speaker 2: two late touchdown pass by Aaron Rodgers to c j

988
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 2: Uzama for the win. And that means we all pick

989
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 2: the Jets. Everyone on Good Good Morning Football picked the

990
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 2: Jets to go to the playoffs. It's it's gas up

991
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 2: season for the Jets. But you know what, I'm taking

992
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,480
Speaker 2: all that anxiety out of my mind. It's time to

993
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 2: play football. Let's see what happens.

994
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 1: Whatever they say about a and Rodgers on TV.

995
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 2: Is a lie.

996
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 1: All right. That's it.

997
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 2: That is the previews of the three prime time games,

998
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:45,200
Speaker 2: and like we said, this is going to be an

999
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 2: every week thing. We hit those games and then on

1000
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,799
Speaker 2: Thursday we have our draft, as you if you're a

1001
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 2: fan of the show know about.

1002
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,320
Speaker 1: And now we transition.

1003
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:02,360
Speaker 4: This is where the Funk attack did arrive.

1004
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 2: It always does, it always does. Yeah, we did forty

1005
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 2: five on those three games, but that's okay. We're enjoying ourselves.

1006
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 2: We're having fun and go get my Lunch. The conversation begins,

1007
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,800
Speaker 2: you butt heads, where we make predictions on the season

1008
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,440
Speaker 2: to come, the regular season to come, and we track

1009
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:22,879
Speaker 2: these predictions with the great help of Nick four Tier,

1010
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,800
Speaker 2: who's been running go get my Lunch dot Org for years.

1011
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 2: This is we're entering our eleventh season four Tiers. If

1012
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 2: he's been at it eight years, nine years, I believe

1013
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 2: it because it's been it's been pretty long now he's

1014
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 2: been doing and.

1015
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 5: To be fair, hasn't been paid a cent for his efforts.

1016
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,440
Speaker 5: I mean, I think we appreciate I think much longer than.

1017
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 2: Twenty fourteen was his first show. Basically, this would be

1018
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,359
Speaker 2: his tenth year tracking things.

1019
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 3: Congratulations to Nick this one. How about a thank you,

1020
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 3: thank you, and this will pay off for you finally

1021
00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 3: this year.

1022
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 1: What does that mean?

1023
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 3: I don't know how, but it's just it's gonna pay off.

1024
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 2: Oh no, you promised something. I think we've set something

1025
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 2: to Nick in the past. But Eric Makeham at that

1026
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 2: we are not a mental note. Can you write it down.

1027
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 2: Let's talk with the shadowy League figures upstairs and figure

1028
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 2: out something to get to Nick.

1029
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:16,720
Speaker 3: This year, Yes, because who else could have tracked whether

1030
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:21,920
Speaker 3: Brian or Rakbo signed with the Falcons or whether Derek

1031
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 3: Morgan signed with the Falcons back in twenty fourteen.

1032
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 1: Literally no one else in the entire world.

1033
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 2: So we enter, we go into our predictions, and it

1034
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 2: is nice when I look at the history. You see

1035
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 2: Chris Westling and again a special west connected guests joining

1036
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:41,840
Speaker 2: us in just a bit. You see all of his wagers,

1037
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:47,359
Speaker 2: including Kristin Michael leads the Cowboys and rushing in which Dan,

1038
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 2: Greg and Mark took him up on it. But Mark,

1039
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,240
Speaker 2: it's noted here, but he thinks it will be close.

1040
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:56,399
Speaker 4: That's such a mode. Well there was no more. Wes

1041
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 4: was fascinated with Christine Michael, so.

1042
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 3: Was Christie Kristen, It was Christian, but uh he was

1043
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,400
Speaker 3: you know, editors Note it was not close. I don't

1044
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:11,240
Speaker 3: believe you know he ever got any carries just about

1045
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 3: like he he had probably under one hundred or two

1046
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 3: hundred years.

1047
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 2: And yeah, I am at fifty three point seven percent

1048
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 2: two twenty six and one ninety five, Greg, you are

1049
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,200
Speaker 2: I got a little distance between you right now for

1050
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,399
Speaker 2: the first time two nineteen and one ninety nine, fifty

1051
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,720
Speaker 2: two point four percent, Mark bringing up the old rear

1052
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:29,640
Speaker 2: with the.

1053
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:35,560
Speaker 4: Old one eight and two ten one forty seven point

1054
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:36,200
Speaker 4: two percent.

1055
00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 1: So the goal really, you.

1056
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 5: Know, back in the early days of you know, no,

1057
00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 5: I think I put some things out there that when

1058
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 5: they hit, they hit, but like they're less maybe lower percentage.

1059
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 2: You're dropped deer, you're gonna hit too. It sh five,

1060
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,320
Speaker 2: but you'll hit thirty one homers you get when you

1061
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 2: get a hold of one.

1062
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,840
Speaker 1: Look out, look at that, look at that sucker.

1063
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:54,920
Speaker 6: Go.

1064
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,719
Speaker 1: That's the kind of like I'd rather live big chase rate.

1065
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 3: And when not, it's like, no, a non human is

1066
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 3: not gonna you know, score a touchdown this year.

1067
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 1: But that's why we love you. Mark.

1068
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:07,240
Speaker 4: Hey, I did that one again.

1069
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,719
Speaker 2: Some people will have called you a beautiful weirdo, and

1070
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 2: I agree I have I didn't, but no, not yet.

1071
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 2: If someone did, sure, I would say yes, as long

1072
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:19,920
Speaker 2: as that's not seen as uh, you know, a pejorative

1073
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 2: in terms of it's a script sort of in any way,

1074
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 2: I'm assuming, all right, let's do this.

1075
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 1: I'll start. I like this.

1076
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,479
Speaker 2: I feel really good about this one. And there should

1077
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:34,399
Speaker 2: be an onion hanger in here somewhere.

1078
00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 4: So we're doing two weeks and an onion hanger.

1079
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 2: We're doing three and then yeah, mine are all pretty hangy.

1080
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 2: I gotta say so, you guys could tell me if

1081
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 2: the if it does or does not qualify. I don't

1082
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 2: have one that like stands out as the onion hanger,

1083
00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 2: but I'll start here. DeVante Adams, superstar wide receiver of

1084
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 2: the Las Vegas Raiders, Mike Evans, star receiver of the

1085
00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:03,840
Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Buccaney. Okay, two players on teams kind of

1086
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 2: going nowhere's a little mean. The week one hasn't happened,

1087
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 2: but an unclear future for the organization's direction. Evans wants

1088
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 2: a new deal. I don't know if that's coming. One

1089
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 2: of those players, Adams or Evans, will be moved ahead

1090
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 2: of the trade deadline in early November.

1091
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 4: That's a fun one, yep.

1092
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:26,239
Speaker 5: I'll take you on it, not to do what I

1093
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 5: just did with the Westling one from many years ago,

1094
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,760
Speaker 5: but it will be close. I do think it will happen.

1095
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,080
Speaker 5: I think i'd put Adams. I put Adams as if.

1096
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 3: You think it's gonna happen, then don't take them.

1097
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 5: Because the only way to gain traction in this game

1098
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 5: is to take everyone on everything. That's my strategy. So

1099
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with the field saying maybe they don't

1100
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 5: move them.

1101
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 3: Well, unless it's a true fifty to fifty or under.

1102
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 3: I think if they were setting this line, it would

1103
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 3: be close to fifty to fifty. But I will take you.

1104
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 3: I still think it's it's less likely to happen, but

1105
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,759
Speaker 3: it's spicy. You reeled us in, and I think if

1106
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 3: you really crunch the numbers and you look at the situation,

1107
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:05,320
Speaker 3: especially Adams but Evans too, I think it's quite possible,

1108
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,040
Speaker 3: and it's pretty close to a fifty to fifty idea.

1109
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:09,280
Speaker 4: One of these will happen.

1110
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:11,800
Speaker 2: Here is something crazy. Now, this would be kind of

1111
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:13,400
Speaker 2: like the Sessler onion hanger.

1112
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 4: He's doing both well.

1113
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:20,919
Speaker 2: No that Adams trading any player mid season is tough.

1114
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 2: You'd have to trade him somewhere where he's comfortable and

1115
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:27,440
Speaker 2: you knew the offense. That's Aaron Rodgers and hacking in

1116
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:30,600
Speaker 2: the Jets. The Jets who have cap space because of

1117
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:35,120
Speaker 2: the Aaron Rodgers restructuring of his contract, so they have

1118
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:38,960
Speaker 2: the financial flexibility to make it happen. They have the

1119
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 2: relationship between player and quarterback and OC.

1120
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 3: And I just want to fly around like a butterfly.

1121
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,280
Speaker 2: And they might have the need, Greg, because I agree

1122
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 2: with you when you look at them on paper after

1123
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,479
Speaker 2: Garrett Wilson, it's like, hmm. If that room isn't coming

1124
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 2: together the way they like behind Wilson or god forbid

1125
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 2: Wilson gets hurt, that is something to keep an eye on.

1126
00:50:58,120 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 4: That's spicy.

1127
00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 3: I looked at the captaincations for the for the Raiders,

1128
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 3: and it's not too crazy. It's doable, and you know

1129
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 3: they'd be motivated enough to give a boatload of picks,

1130
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 3: which is the only way that I think.

1131
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 5: The other side of the coin is that, like the

1132
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:14,080
Speaker 5: Raiders have a high implosion factor.

1133
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:15,320
Speaker 4: I know I'm getting. I'm getting.

1134
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 2: Look at Chandler Jones, the report out there or the.

1135
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,560
Speaker 3: The instagram's story that he said, uh, he didn't want

1136
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 3: to play for this head coach or GM get.

1137
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,000
Speaker 5: To the gym and Adams basically said, like I I'm

1138
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:27,719
Speaker 5: going to have to do my best kind of keep

1139
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 5: my head in the game and play along with what's

1140
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:31,040
Speaker 5: going on here, said a couple of months ago.

1141
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:32,400
Speaker 4: That's not I don't love those words.

1142
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 2: The instagram that was since deleted from Chandler Jones big

1143
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 2: ticket free agent signing last year. He said that he

1144
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,720
Speaker 2: could not get into the team facility for the Raiders,

1145
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,520
Speaker 2: and we could focus on this tomorrow, but it's already here,

1146
00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 2: so they I don't know what what the disconnect was,

1147
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:54,160
Speaker 2: but he couldn't get in, so he said, I'm forced

1148
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 2: to go to a local gym to work out, and

1149
00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:58,680
Speaker 2: he kind of put it right at the feet of McDaniels, who,

1150
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 2: again is a guy that's not looking so hot in

1151
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:03,480
Speaker 2: terms of how he runs teams. And yeah, the high

1152
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,760
Speaker 2: implosion factor. That's just another crack where you're like, remember

1153
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,439
Speaker 2: Urban Meyer where just the crack started and he started

1154
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 2: to see more and more and more. Mmmmmmmmm, all right, Greg.

1155
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:16,640
Speaker 3: Was a pretty big crack when he was just you know,

1156
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:19,359
Speaker 3: like grinding on that girl in the bar.

1157
00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:20,839
Speaker 4: I watched her a game.

1158
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: I watched These swamp Kings, yes that they lost.

1159
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:28,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, the swamp Kings documentary on on Florida during the

1160
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:34,879
Speaker 2: Tebow years. Urban Meyer is insufferable in the doc which

1161
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,719
Speaker 2: is a very good documentary overall, but it is insane

1162
00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 2: how high that man is on his own supply.

1163
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:43,480
Speaker 1: It's worth watching just.

1164
00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 4: For that, But I would.

1165
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 2: It's an excellent documentary, and I thought the as this

1166
00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 2: is our eleventh year, all the guys that came through

1167
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,800
Speaker 2: that pipeline, like seeing Percy Harvin is a college superstar,

1168
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 2: seeing Tebow's journey after it got all warped when he

1169
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 2: got to the NFL. Your boy, the linebacker spikes uh.

1170
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:05,799
Speaker 2: He has a major part in the uh in the

1171
00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 2: in the doc as well.

1172
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,239
Speaker 3: He was a big person and a big swing and

1173
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,560
Speaker 3: miss from myself in terms.

1174
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:12,279
Speaker 4: Of what type of career.

1175
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:14,680
Speaker 3: This isn't gonna be a swing and miss though. You

1176
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 3: guys can take the rest of the field in the

1177
00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 3: NFC North and you can give up on our team

1178
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,400
Speaker 3: of around the NFL all you want.

1179
00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 4: I'm sticking with them.

1180
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:26,640
Speaker 3: And I was thinking, what didn't we really cover in

1181
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:29,760
Speaker 3: the in the predictions pod, And it's it's my, uh,

1182
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,520
Speaker 3: my belief that these this Lions team will live up

1183
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,920
Speaker 3: to their high expectations this year and they will win

1184
00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:37,680
Speaker 3: the NFC North. So you get the field, I get

1185
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:38,960
Speaker 3: the Lions.

1186
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:43,200
Speaker 4: That's right.

1187
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 1: Well, they're not the team of atl.

1188
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:47,000
Speaker 3: Well, I'm trying to keep them that way.

1189
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 2: Here here's something incredible, Mark, this is a I was

1190
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:54,080
Speaker 2: gonna hold mine, but it's directly connected to this. So

1191
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:57,160
Speaker 2: my second one is the Lines do not spend a

1192
00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,480
Speaker 2: single week alone in first place in the NFC.

1193
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:01,200
Speaker 4: You know, alone.

1194
00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,440
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess that's funny. I mean, I'll take

1195
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 3: you up on that.

1196
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:06,919
Speaker 1: Because they start, in my mind with a loss. Listen,

1197
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 1: I already Oh my.

1198
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 3: God, so you already agreed. This is a wait a second.

1199
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:11,200
Speaker 3: This is exciting.

1200
00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,239
Speaker 2: This has to be an onion hangar because if the

1201
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,320
Speaker 2: Lions win tomorrow, you're you've already out.

1202
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:21,320
Speaker 3: You've already lost, you've lost your lock, but you've lost sandwiches.

1203
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:22,920
Speaker 4: It would be unre.

1204
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,800
Speaker 3: And I just I hope, obviously the Lions win, but

1205
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:28,799
Speaker 3: I just hope they're ahead in the second half and

1206
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:30,359
Speaker 3: that you're sweating this thing out.

1207
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:31,120
Speaker 4: This would be great.

1208
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:35,080
Speaker 5: I'll take you both up on your individual Lions Okay,

1209
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:36,359
Speaker 5: propositions right there.

1210
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,760
Speaker 4: Okay, so you're taking the field, you s they essentially

1211
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 4: conflict with each other on some level. But can you

1212
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 4: win both? Yeah?

1213
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:44,640
Speaker 1: Yeah you can, of.

1214
00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:47,520
Speaker 5: Course, So I can't. Actually, I actually probably will have

1215
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:48,239
Speaker 5: to win one of them.

1216
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 2: Right, So the Lions do not spend a single week

1217
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,480
Speaker 2: alone in first place, but he has them winning.

1218
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:55,280
Speaker 4: Right, the whole division.

1219
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:57,480
Speaker 3: All all you need to happen is for them to

1220
00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 3: spend one week in first place at some point, but

1221
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,840
Speaker 3: not win my division. Right, just it is quite I

1222
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:05,879
Speaker 3: love taking both quite possible alone really makes it.

1223
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, tricky, but all right, I got one for you.

1224
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 1: Wait a second.

1225
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 4: That was a good way to.

1226
00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:13,960
Speaker 2: Marinate on that a little bit more that the Lions,

1227
00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:15,879
Speaker 2: they might not be the team of ATN but they

1228
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:19,799
Speaker 2: are and continue to be a hugely compelling team within

1229
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,319
Speaker 2: the structure of this year.

1230
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 4: I want to keep it, don't I don't know.

1231
00:55:22,880 --> 00:55:25,239
Speaker 5: I don't love the dynamic that Greg is cooking up

1232
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 5: where he is going to force or attempt to force

1233
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:30,920
Speaker 5: them to be the team of ATEN again. But also

1234
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:34,120
Speaker 5: at the same time tell everyone and tell you and

1235
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:35,759
Speaker 5: I that we aren't actually on board with it.

1236
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 3: Well, that you really weren't last year, and I actually what.

1237
00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,200
Speaker 4: I was doing last year they grew on me and

1238
00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 4: I was being.

1239
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 2: Not really that you were upbeat for you last year

1240
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:47,279
Speaker 2: it was it was as the Titans crumbled on top

1241
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 2: of it.

1242
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:48,959
Speaker 1: Every other team, Well, there.

1243
00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:52,359
Speaker 5: Are multiple things, multiple flowering disasters occurring all at once.

1244
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 2: All right, let's hear it, and throwing the ball over

1245
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 2: the field to different people that weren't on his team.

1246
00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:00,960
Speaker 1: Just a tough back nine last year.

1247
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 5: I've made mine a little simpler this time around. Yeah,

1248
00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:06,400
Speaker 5: Dak Prescott will be benched.

1249
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 1: WHOA, that is an onion hagger.

1250
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:12,720
Speaker 4: So it can't be an injury.

1251
00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 5: No, no, no, I mean we would have to you know,

1252
00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:18,360
Speaker 5: there's sometimes they don't tell you exactly what's going on,

1253
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:19,319
Speaker 5: but it has to be.

1254
00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:21,399
Speaker 3: Ends for a performance reason.

1255
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:22,920
Speaker 4: Performance absolutely all right.

1256
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:24,279
Speaker 1: What about if he gets.

1257
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:25,960
Speaker 4: Wow, that's an onion hanger and then.

1258
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 5: He gets injured like Alex Smith Kaepernick type things like.

1259
00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:32,760
Speaker 2: Last year, right, And I don't know in your mind,

1260
00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:35,120
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's Cooper Rush or if it's

1261
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,279
Speaker 2: the washout from San Francisco, Trey Lance. One of these

1262
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:41,239
Speaker 2: guys takes the job while he's injured and plays well

1263
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:43,840
Speaker 2: and then he doesn't, and then.

1264
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 3: That that counts as a bet.

1265
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,000
Speaker 1: Prescott gets better and then he stays on the bench.

1266
00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 5: Is that in the in the world of NFL quarterbacks

1267
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 5: like Dak Prescott wants healthy, not being put put back

1268
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:56,239
Speaker 5: into the starting lineup is.

1269
00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,719
Speaker 4: A benching. That's a massive onion hanger. Right after top wait,

1270
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:02,239
Speaker 4: because I know.

1271
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:05,640
Speaker 2: You were part of that chorus that's saying, you know,

1272
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:08,640
Speaker 2: Dak's stats last year weren't a true reflection of who

1273
00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 2: he was, Like, what's gonna happen this year?

1274
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:12,400
Speaker 4: No, I don't know if I'm really part of that chorus.

1275
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 5: I think that if you go and look at all

1276
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:16,920
Speaker 5: his interceptions, there is that argument that like there was

1277
00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,840
Speaker 5: some weird stuff happening. He wasn't like a turnover prone

1278
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:22,680
Speaker 5: quarterback historically, and like some weird stuff happens.

1279
00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:23,920
Speaker 2: So those are a thing.

1280
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 1: Is this a hunter? Are you seeing actual?

1281
00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:28,280
Speaker 5: I think the pressure is turned way up and I

1282
00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 5: could just see I think the one thing about Trey Lance.

1283
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 5: I buy the fact that they're like all in on Dak,

1284
00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:35,960
Speaker 5: but Trey Lance, the one thing about him is like

1285
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 5: there's just this mysterious, attractive potential and if they got

1286
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:42,760
Speaker 5: into a jam, I could see them be tempted to

1287
00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 5: see what Lance could do if Dak is really floundering. So,

1288
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:46,920
Speaker 5: I mean it's a bit of a reach in the

1289
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,439
Speaker 5: sense that I'm going to I'm thinking Dak Prescott becomes

1290
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 5: a lesser quarterback than I actually think he is today.

1291
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:53,760
Speaker 4: But that's I'm just really a crazy one.

1292
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 3: But if they're six and ten or seven and nine

1293
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 3: and eliminated and they want to take a look at

1294
00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:06,120
Speaker 3: Trey Lance week seventeen, I think that's your path, that's

1295
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,480
Speaker 3: the most likely path, and it's not totally insane. I

1296
00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 3: still don't think they would do it. I don't think

1297
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:13,120
Speaker 3: he's Derek Carr.

1298
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:16,760
Speaker 2: But yeah, that would be pretty stunning and it would

1299
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:19,960
Speaker 2: be a real sign that Dak has lost obviously a

1300
00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:21,680
Speaker 2: ton of juice in that building.

1301
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:23,240
Speaker 1: I'm not there, it would be.

1302
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:25,200
Speaker 2: I feel like it's a little bit like the Trey

1303
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 2: Lance trade because people still trying to make Trey Lance

1304
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:30,600
Speaker 2: a thing. They made a bigger story than it really

1305
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,160
Speaker 2: should have been seen in my mind.

1306
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:35,840
Speaker 4: Okay, but you've already done to now.

1307
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm out.

1308
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:38,360
Speaker 4: Okay, I got one more.

1309
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,440
Speaker 3: I'll throw in one that I like because I like

1310
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:45,200
Speaker 3: to use the QB index as a measuring stick. Even

1311
00:58:45,240 --> 00:58:48,040
Speaker 3: though Mark's not writing it this year, Nick Schuok is

1312
00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:52,280
Speaker 3: Nick Schuck is doing it. Nice to have him involved and.

1313
00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:53,320
Speaker 1: Be on the show Sunday.

1314
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 3: By the way, Oh, this is why I'm going to

1315
00:58:55,280 --> 00:59:02,000
Speaker 3: really try to influence Nick throughout the season on his voting.

1316
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:04,000
Speaker 3: When it comes to keeping up with the Joneses, because

1317
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 3: there's a couple Joneses here that are starting quarterbacks in

1318
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 3: the NFL. And my prop, my sandwich, is that Mac Jones, mccorkyll,

1319
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:17,080
Speaker 3: your boy finishes the year ranked ahead of Daniel Jones

1320
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:24,120
Speaker 3: in that beautiful QB index. Mac Jones over Daniel Jones.

1321
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 2: I like this, It like it ticks your fan boxes

1322
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 2: off very well. You're believing Mac Jones and the Patriots

1323
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 2: being sneaky okay this year and your abject dislike of

1324
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,720
Speaker 2: the Giants over a couple of key games in your past.

1325
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:45,920
Speaker 1: It's a good one, and I think Mac will be better.

1326
00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:48,360
Speaker 4: It's really a belief in Mac.

1327
00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 3: I've actually the record will show I have been higher

1328
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,520
Speaker 3: than consensus on Daniel Jones throughout his career. But I

1329
00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 3: think Mac Jones will be good, and I think he's

1330
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:57,000
Speaker 3: he's a better.

1331
00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:59,840
Speaker 1: So it's not QBR, it's not pass rating, it's.

1332
00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 3: It's I'm like QB index, I trust shook more.

1333
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,280
Speaker 1: Where would I don't even I don't know shooks like.

1334
01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:09,960
Speaker 3: Who has a better who has a better year?

1335
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:10,840
Speaker 4: I mean last year.

1336
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 1: He might value different things.

1337
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:16,520
Speaker 4: I think's gonna give us a pretty counting. I'm not

1338
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:17,120
Speaker 4: worried about it.

1339
01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 1: I'll take you on it.

1340
01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:18,800
Speaker 4: I'll take you on a too.

1341
01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,120
Speaker 5: I think it would be a pretty big story of

1342
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:23,720
Speaker 5: I think everyone expects Max Jones to bounce back.

1343
01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,400
Speaker 3: Sure check that box. But like he finished twenty ninth

1344
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:26,920
Speaker 3: last year.

1345
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:30,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, but like so but the year before year.

1346
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,960
Speaker 3: But even consensus, I've been looking at these quarterback rankings,

1347
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 3: even consensus coming into the year.

1348
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:35,800
Speaker 4: That's about where people have them.

1349
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:38,200
Speaker 1: Like four guys, all right, here's a good one.

1350
01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:41,600
Speaker 2: Where was Mac at the end of QB Index after

1351
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:43,320
Speaker 2: his rookie year versus Daniel Johns?

1352
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:45,640
Speaker 4: I wrote it. You also kind of tailed off at

1353
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 4: at the top ten. I have no idea, no, like,

1354
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 4: where was he after like week week ten or left at.

1355
01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:53,400
Speaker 3: The very end of the season. I had him probably

1356
01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:56,120
Speaker 3: average and I and I'll find it for you while

1357
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:58,320
Speaker 3: I'm talking. And I probably had Daniel Jones just below

1358
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 3: they were. They were probably quite close. But yeah, little

1359
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:03,880
Speaker 3: Mac over two years ago. Two years ago, I had

1360
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:06,760
Speaker 3: Mac sixteen and Daniel Jones.

1361
01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:09,640
Speaker 4: That's a different dans.

1362
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:13,200
Speaker 2: What did you have him last year? Jones forgot about Mac.

1363
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:15,920
Speaker 5: Jones was closer twenty nine, the middle of the pack,

1364
01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:16,919
Speaker 5: and Mac was way low.

1365
01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:18,480
Speaker 4: I mean just because of what was it's not.

1366
01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:20,720
Speaker 3: An onion hangar, but it's an upset, but it's not

1367
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 3: an onion hanger.

1368
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:24,960
Speaker 5: Okay, I'll take you too, because I mean I just

1369
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 5: thirty minutes ago said I thought that we're going to

1370
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:29,240
Speaker 5: get like the next version of Daniel Jones in an

1371
01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:30,840
Speaker 5: evolution in his entire game.

1372
01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:34,160
Speaker 2: So that well, you've played that game before, though you've

1373
01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:35,600
Speaker 2: covered both sides in the past.

1374
01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,320
Speaker 5: I really don't think this is the mac Jones is

1375
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:40,520
Speaker 5: going to wind up with a better all right, you're

1376
01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:46,200
Speaker 5: up QB Index. Okay, here we go, a floating Rams operation.

1377
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:48,479
Speaker 5: Trades away Matthew Stafford. I mean, we've been talking about

1378
01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:49,840
Speaker 5: this for a long time. I just don't see the

1379
01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,520
Speaker 5: pieces put together, and like you've got your trade situation

1380
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:53,360
Speaker 5: with the wideouts.

1381
01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:54,800
Speaker 4: I think, Matthew, Matthew Stafford.

1382
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:58,080
Speaker 5: A team that believes that they have a quarterback injury

1383
01:01:58,080 --> 01:01:59,680
Speaker 5: of some sort, they believe that they really have a

1384
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:02,600
Speaker 5: real chance. And Stafford kind of fits the bill of

1385
01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 5: going from a team that's in a rebuild to kind

1386
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:09,440
Speaker 5: of be in that mid season rescue operation for a

1387
01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 5: playoff hopeful team in the afc R.

1388
01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 3: NFL we'll hear what a very notable member of the

1389
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 3: at M family rams fan thinks about this shortly.

1390
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:20,640
Speaker 1: But that's easy.

1391
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,600
Speaker 3: I don't see it happen and happen. I'm taking you.

1392
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:25,360
Speaker 4: Up on it because I think it's impossible to No,

1393
01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:26,920
Speaker 4: I don't think it's that crazy that they may.

1394
01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:29,440
Speaker 1: When's the last quarterback I got traded in seasons?

1395
01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 5: I think of like, well, like a Sam Bradford situation

1396
01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:38,280
Speaker 5: before you know Baker right before.

1397
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 3: The season, right in the season Palmer was not in season?

1398
01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:46,000
Speaker 4: Was Palmer was, because remember he essentially sat out. I

1399
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 4: feel like Palmer was, but he wasn't even playing it

1400
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:48,640
Speaker 4: right right.

1401
01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 2: See, that's different too, like Stafford to get moved as

1402
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,640
Speaker 2: a quarterback, unless it's to an offense that you know

1403
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:56,680
Speaker 2: like the back of your hand, and then to give

1404
01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:58,640
Speaker 2: up what you would give up to get a veteran

1405
01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:03,480
Speaker 2: Super Bowl MVP or whatever you would want him right

1406
01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:05,720
Speaker 2: in your lineup right away. It just seems so implausible

1407
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:07,680
Speaker 2: to me that a team would do that in the

1408
01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:10,480
Speaker 2: middle of the year. So I feel more confident about

1409
01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:13,160
Speaker 2: that than anything we've done so far that he's wow nowhere,

1410
01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:13,680
Speaker 2: I'm with you.

1411
01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 5: But then, like you also hear reports that like people

1412
01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:19,919
Speaker 5: wanted to pull Drew Brees out of retirements and Tony

1413
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:20,920
Speaker 5: Romo out of retirement.

1414
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:27,120
Speaker 2: But to me, he's going, you're staying a trade the cap.

1415
01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:32,160
Speaker 3: The cap implications are quite complicated. And the only reason

1416
01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:33,960
Speaker 3: why this is on the table and it could be

1417
01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:36,960
Speaker 3: for Aaron Donald I supposed to is, Look, there's two

1418
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:41,000
Speaker 3: quarterback prospects in this next class that are gonna probably

1419
01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:44,920
Speaker 3: have a higher consensus grade than any quarterback since Burrow

1420
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 3: and Lawrence and and and are going to be seen

1421
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:50,440
Speaker 3: in that category, and so helping your chances for that

1422
01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:51,200
Speaker 3: will be attractive.

1423
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:54,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm trying to think who is the It would

1424
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 2: have to be a coordinator tree match to start. I

1425
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:02,280
Speaker 2: would think so like who is a McVeigh disciple?

1426
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it would. That would help it. I

1427
01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 4: don't think that is.

1428
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 3: Like not Yeah, I think he could work almost.

1429
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,120
Speaker 5: I think you could convince yourself and a jam. Again,

1430
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:12,440
Speaker 5: It's not like some team doing it as a weird experiment.

1431
01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:15,560
Speaker 5: It's like we've lost our guy. We're in the race,

1432
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,480
Speaker 5: and it's not a forever solution, but Stafford for this

1433
01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:21,240
Speaker 5: season in the Rams, it's like stockpile draft picks. You're

1434
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:24,080
Speaker 5: probably a bottom five team. Is Stafford like, really your.

1435
01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:25,200
Speaker 1: You want to do that? I would have.

1436
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:28,000
Speaker 2: I would imagine the last ever wants to do is

1437
01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 2: leave in the middle of a season.

1438
01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:30,920
Speaker 1: Got a family, He's already got.

1439
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 4: His if they're one and six or something.

1440
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:32,760
Speaker 1: There.

1441
01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:34,600
Speaker 3: There's there's a lot of things in the way here,

1442
01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:36,760
Speaker 3: but I think you would need it's bonkers.

1443
01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:37,440
Speaker 1: That was bonkers.

1444
01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:39,520
Speaker 4: You would need like a quarterback to get hurt. I'm

1445
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 4: just trying to make interesting.

1446
01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:45,680
Speaker 2: That was great, great radio bro Okay, all right, last round.

1447
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:51,120
Speaker 2: This one is pretty straightforward. I get Bejon Robinson and

1448
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:54,520
Speaker 2: Nick Chubb. You guys get the field for twenty twenty

1449
01:04:54,520 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 2: three rushing champion Nick Chubb and who Bjon Robin. Okay,

1450
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,480
Speaker 2: I like this one because the field is always the

1451
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,480
Speaker 2: way to go. But I feel like those two guys

1452
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:08,440
Speaker 2: to me, Yeah, you.

1453
01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:09,400
Speaker 4: Backed us into a corner.

1454
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:12,800
Speaker 3: Yeah that's You've had some onion hangers. This one not

1455
01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 3: as much. I Uh, I don't like it because I

1456
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:20,600
Speaker 3: think I picked Bijeon Tou to leave the league in

1457
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:21,880
Speaker 3: rushing the corner.

1458
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:23,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like putting baby in a corner.

1459
01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 3: And yet I'm gonna take it anyways, because uh, you know,

1460
01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 3: man's got to live by his code, and my code

1461
01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:29,320
Speaker 3: is the field.

1462
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:32,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, I will, I'll take you. I don't love this either.

1463
01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:33,840
Speaker 5: I think you've done a nice job.

1464
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, sort of like rappiness you guys in Big Time.

1465
01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:37,200
Speaker 4: That was a good one.

1466
01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:38,080
Speaker 1: Uh, let's see.

1467
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:41,360
Speaker 3: I really, I really think Beijeon has a really good chance.

1468
01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:44,880
Speaker 3: But man, the field in Chub Chubb would be in

1469
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:46,120
Speaker 3: my top three chance.

1470
01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:49,360
Speaker 5: You know, let me look at these real quick here.

1471
01:05:49,480 --> 01:05:51,760
Speaker 5: I don't know what that Browns offense is gonna be though.

1472
01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:53,720
Speaker 5: That's a little bit of a wild CARDI one.

1473
01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:55,000
Speaker 1: I think he'll get the rock though.

1474
01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:58,000
Speaker 2: Okay, let's see who else would even Austin Eckler doesn't

1475
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:00,280
Speaker 2: run the ball enough. McCaffrey doesn't run the ball enough

1476
01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:04,800
Speaker 2: to win the rushing title. Barkley sure, Derek Henry, obviously

1477
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:07,280
Speaker 2: you can't. You can't take that man out of the mix.

1478
01:06:07,720 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 2: Tony Pollard, Josh Jacobs is the defending rushing champion.

1479
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:12,040
Speaker 1: These are all options.

1480
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 5: I don't love the field, but I think you're kind

1481
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:18,600
Speaker 5: of counting on, unfortunately, something going a little sideways with

1482
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:19,520
Speaker 5: Robinson er Chubb.

1483
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:21,640
Speaker 2: That's what you're hoping for in this one.

1484
01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:24,520
Speaker 3: I'm taking my sandwich back. I'm not putting it on.

1485
01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:27,640
Speaker 3: I hate, I don't want to be I am so

1486
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 3: in on.

1487
01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:31,200
Speaker 5: You just said you had a code, though I changed

1488
01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:32,280
Speaker 5: my code the code.

1489
01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:33,360
Speaker 4: I have so many codes.

1490
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:36,080
Speaker 3: I have so many Well another one of my codes,

1491
01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:38,160
Speaker 3: that is, pick what you want to root for, like,

1492
01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 3: don't don't pick against.

1493
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:41,400
Speaker 1: Too many codes. That's the problem.

1494
01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:42,920
Speaker 4: I'll forget that this.

1495
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:45,840
Speaker 2: I don't care if I win or lose. Just giving

1496
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:48,400
Speaker 2: Greg this mental anguish is already a win I want.

1497
01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:52,680
Speaker 3: I don't want to feel any even hint of conflict,

1498
01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:56,200
Speaker 3: a whisper, a little flavor with Bjon's running for two

1499
01:06:56,280 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 3: hundred yards in those games. I just want to enjoy it.

1500
01:06:58,240 --> 01:06:59,200
Speaker 3: So I'm taking mine off.

1501
01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:03,360
Speaker 1: All right, let's go that works too, and that leaves

1502
01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:04,480
Speaker 1: two more Greg.

1503
01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 3: Okay, I talked a lot about my belief and these

1504
01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:14,800
Speaker 3: Los Angeles Chargers on the previous show. Let's take it.

1505
01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:20,040
Speaker 3: Let's take it into a different step. Justin Herbert finishes

1506
01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:25,480
Speaker 3: higher in the MVP voting than Patrick Mahomes.

1507
01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:28,320
Speaker 4: We just get a Herbert over. I'll take you around

1508
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:33,520
Speaker 4: one all day long. One the Herbo Herbo thing.

1509
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,840
Speaker 2: No, chargers are far too dysfunctional. For everything to go well.

1510
01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:41,080
Speaker 3: They they have to finish, they have to win the

1511
01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:43,200
Speaker 3: division most likely for that to happen.

1512
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:45,880
Speaker 4: It's basically just another way of saying that you'd.

1513
01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:49,120
Speaker 5: Have to outduel Mahomes decisively, if not in both of

1514
01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:50,160
Speaker 5: the their encounters.

1515
01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:51,840
Speaker 4: That's why. That's why I brought up last.

1516
01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:54,760
Speaker 2: As they say, I kind of don't like this phrase,

1517
01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:56,440
Speaker 2: But what do to say it with your chest?

1518
01:07:57,160 --> 01:07:57,360
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1519
01:07:57,360 --> 01:07:59,480
Speaker 2: I saw you on Twitter. I know I know your game.

1520
01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:02,840
Speaker 2: Greg doing that a long time. You're getting out there

1521
01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:05,680
Speaker 2: in the public discourse. You had some type of pro

1522
01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:09,280
Speaker 2: Chargers take, which is fine, by the way, I don't agree,

1523
01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:11,840
Speaker 2: but that doesn't matter. Like you believe, you are all

1524
01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:16,280
Speaker 2: in on the Bolts and they're special young quarterbacks.

1525
01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:20,200
Speaker 4: They consistent you're in, You're in yours like I'm back in.

1526
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:24,439
Speaker 2: Is there a team you're more like, uh into right

1527
01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:25,799
Speaker 2: now than the Chargers?

1528
01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:30,760
Speaker 3: No, Seahawks and Patriots certainly are right, you know, Patriots

1529
01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:32,960
Speaker 3: are different Atlanta creeping.

1530
01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:33,719
Speaker 2: Into that in Atlanta?

1531
01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:35,240
Speaker 1: How about you? Mark?

1532
01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,480
Speaker 4: Is there a team I'm more into than the Chargers?

1533
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:38,960
Speaker 6: No?

1534
01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:40,840
Speaker 1: Who's your team that you're most into?

1535
01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:44,080
Speaker 2: I think the Falcons right now, They're the team that

1536
01:08:44,360 --> 01:08:47,800
Speaker 2: when you open your eyes, that's the team your most

1537
01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:48,360
Speaker 2: I was.

1538
01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:50,160
Speaker 5: Up in the middle of the night, well thinking about

1539
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:51,800
Speaker 5: the falcons, which is a weird thing for me to do.

1540
01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:54,800
Speaker 1: Wow, last evening, it's the falcons.

1541
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:57,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that you're most invested in having a big year,

1542
01:08:58,400 --> 01:08:58,680
Speaker 2: you think?

1543
01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:02,559
Speaker 4: And then I'm most intrigued by Arthur Smith mustache or what?

1544
01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:05,040
Speaker 2: What do you think? Sure, no one else that you're

1545
01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 2: thinking about in this conversation.

1546
01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:10,400
Speaker 5: No, I know what you're attempting to do, but you're

1547
01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:13,880
Speaker 5: not even within a continent of where my mind is.

1548
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,439
Speaker 3: I just love that our guests has been listening to

1549
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:18,240
Speaker 3: this the whole time.

1550
01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:19,160
Speaker 2: She's she's on.

1551
01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:21,639
Speaker 1: Let's bring her in.

1552
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,080
Speaker 4: I still have another prop though, but she can listen

1553
01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:25,320
Speaker 4: to it.

1554
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:26,040
Speaker 1: Sure, bring her in.

1555
01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:26,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's ever do that.

1556
01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:32,720
Speaker 1: Okay, nobody else too?

1557
01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:34,360
Speaker 3: There she is no one else?

1558
01:09:35,640 --> 01:09:42,320
Speaker 2: Hey, Lakeisha, Hello, it is Lakeisha Jackson Westling, the Great

01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:47,639
Speaker 1: Yes, oh, I see some.

1561
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:54,200
Speaker 3: Why do you have a better setup with annoying.

1562
01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:54,720
Speaker 6: Because I still need some stuff on the shelves back here.

1563
01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:55,920
Speaker 4: But it's definitely better.

1564
01:09:56,080 --> 01:09:58,080
Speaker 2: It's almost as if you leave Los Angeles, you have

1565
01:09:58,120 --> 01:09:59,880
Speaker 2: a lot more space in your life.

1566
01:10:00,640 --> 01:10:02,120
Speaker 4: Are those that would be correct?

1567
01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 2: Are those some Shield Softballs are famous company softball team

1568
01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:08,519
Speaker 2: that went to three title games and took home two

1569
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:10,599
Speaker 2: trophies that would be correct.

1570
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:13,400
Speaker 6: One is my game ball when I only got one

1571
01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:15,760
Speaker 6: game ball, so that one's back there. And another one

1572
01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:17,519
Speaker 6: I don't even know where it's from, but we all

1573
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,080
Speaker 6: signed it, and like west signed it and has like

1574
01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:24,000
Speaker 6: Wes loves Lakeisha Jackson Westland. So that's one of my favorites.

1575
01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:24,639
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.

1576
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:26,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was floating around my hate us for a

1577
01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:26,680
Speaker 1: long time.

1578
01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:28,400
Speaker 4: I remember, Yes, you gave that to me?

1579
01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:30,640
Speaker 2: Yes, Keish, How are you?

1580
01:10:30,800 --> 01:10:31,599
Speaker 1: How is everything?

1581
01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:37,040
Speaker 6: I'm good? I am a busy boy. Mom. Lincoln is

1582
01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:41,880
Speaker 6: obsessed with anything Spider Man right now. So right before

1583
01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:43,800
Speaker 6: I got on, I hurd a little ding from my

1584
01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:46,560
Speaker 6: Alexa that my Halloween costume is here. I'm going to

1585
01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:52,400
Speaker 6: be one from Spider Man. So he's just running all

1586
01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:55,040
Speaker 6: over the place, like he's talking really well. Now he's

1587
01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:57,880
Speaker 6: just becoming a little person, and he's so funny. Like

1588
01:10:57,960 --> 01:10:59,680
Speaker 6: I love this age a lot, Like it's it's a

1589
01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:01,960
Speaker 6: lot of fun. It's a lot of work, but it's

1590
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:02,920
Speaker 6: also a lot of fun.

1591
01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:06,200
Speaker 2: Your Instagram story posted over the weekend where he did

1592
01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:09,400
Speaker 2: like a jump from a platform. First of all, he's

1593
01:11:09,400 --> 01:11:12,559
Speaker 2: built like a tank now and he's got that Westling build,

1594
01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:16,679
Speaker 2: and I think, yeah, like stocky, stocky and athletic and

1595
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:20,280
Speaker 2: like Chris hitting those hard groundball singles up the middle

1596
01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:22,680
Speaker 2: and then going first to third on bass hits, like

1597
01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:26,599
Speaker 2: he definitely has you know, those Westlings, and I mean

1598
01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,400
Speaker 2: all of them. I know, I've met all of them

1599
01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:31,240
Speaker 2: for the most part, maybe one I haven't met yet.

1600
01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:35,040
Speaker 2: All athletic guys and competitive guys. And you could just

1601
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:38,680
Speaker 2: tell the way Link is that he is going to

1602
01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:40,559
Speaker 2: be like a chip off the old block, and.

1603
01:11:40,560 --> 01:11:42,680
Speaker 5: The way in the Westling body type. There's a lot

1604
01:11:42,680 --> 01:11:45,840
Speaker 5: of different body types with those brothers. There's some tall ones,

1605
01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:48,640
Speaker 5: lean ones, some stock but I mean Link has that.

1606
01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:51,519
Speaker 3: I think he's I think he's got the Chris slash

1607
01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:53,880
Speaker 3: and Chris and Nick build right, hopefully a little taller.

1608
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:56,960
Speaker 6: Yes, even when he's like walking around his little like

1609
01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:00,200
Speaker 6: boxer briefs, like it just reminds me remember how all

1610
01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:03,080
Speaker 6: stocky Chris used to be. Like his legs, the way

1611
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:06,000
Speaker 6: he walks like it's just it blows my mind, like

1612
01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:07,880
Speaker 6: all the time. I'm like, I got a little West

1613
01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:09,439
Speaker 6: walking around here, like what the heck?

1614
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:11,439
Speaker 1: And there's a reason. By the way, Lakeisha got a

1615
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:11,880
Speaker 1: game ball.

1616
01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:16,000
Speaker 2: I mean, Lakeisha was an athlete herself in high school

1617
01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:19,720
Speaker 2: and had sprinter speed once she put the ball on

1618
01:12:19,720 --> 01:12:21,679
Speaker 2: the ground. The whole thing with Lakeisha was like Wesley

1619
01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:24,599
Speaker 2: Snipe's character in Major League. If you hit a pop up,

1620
01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:27,559
Speaker 2: give me ten push ups. Because you put that ball

1621
01:12:27,560 --> 01:12:29,479
Speaker 2: on the ground, they are not throwing you out at first.

1622
01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:32,240
Speaker 2: So Link is really coming from some serious genes in

1623
01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:33,240
Speaker 2: terms of athletics.

1624
01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,320
Speaker 6: And he's got my speed too, So it's like, I'm

1625
01:12:36,360 --> 01:12:38,880
Speaker 6: so excited to see, like what sport he ends up

1626
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:41,479
Speaker 6: like falling in love with because he's got my speed,

1627
01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:46,280
Speaker 6: He's got like Chris's hand eye coordination, so he's gonna Yeah,

1628
01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:49,360
Speaker 6: it's gonna be very very interesting. I'm I'm excited to

1629
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,080
Speaker 6: say that because I'm gonna be so screaming in the stand,

1630
01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:53,040
Speaker 6: super competitive.

1631
01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:55,439
Speaker 1: Are you excited about the Rams?

1632
01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:01,719
Speaker 4: I'm yeah.

1633
01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:05,639
Speaker 6: We're we're rebuilding right now, so my expectations are very low.

1634
01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:10,519
Speaker 3: You left them, you came here, they experienced the immediate

1635
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:14,080
Speaker 3: success they won the Super Bowl with you here there

1636
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:15,840
Speaker 3: and then and then you left and they fell apart.

1637
01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:17,400
Speaker 1: They have to come back to Saint Louis. Now. That's

1638
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:18,479
Speaker 1: the only way. I don't make this.

1639
01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:22,599
Speaker 6: And I wish it's it's Ghotstown here, everyone's chiefs fans

1640
01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:23,519
Speaker 6: now and what what?

1641
01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:24,599
Speaker 2: Oh yo?

1642
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:27,599
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I've heard that too.

1643
01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:30,040
Speaker 6: In the stores where you're like buying all the Saint

1644
01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:33,439
Speaker 6: Louis merchandise. I'm like, yeah, it's very very odd. So

1645
01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:35,679
Speaker 6: it's just me and a few others.

1646
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:37,320
Speaker 4: Soish we had it.

1647
01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:39,160
Speaker 5: We were doing sandwich props, as you know, and I

1648
01:13:39,160 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 5: had one that Matthew Stafford would be traded mid season

1649
01:13:44,560 --> 01:13:46,559
Speaker 5: by the Rams to another team. Does that seem absurd

1650
01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:49,600
Speaker 5: to you? Would you take me up on that? No,

1651
01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:52,240
Speaker 5: not going to happen.

1652
01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:53,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, not going to happen.

1653
01:13:53,880 --> 01:13:56,120
Speaker 1: You want to take well, you take your sandwich. Yeah,

1654
01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:58,680
Speaker 1: all right. So add that to the list market and

1655
01:13:58,840 --> 01:13:59,360
Speaker 1: I still.

1656
01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:01,000
Speaker 3: Have one more Mark, and then I know you have one.

1657
01:14:01,040 --> 01:14:03,519
Speaker 2: All right, Mark, you give us a sandwich prop. Keish,

1658
01:14:03,520 --> 01:14:05,559
Speaker 2: you give us one, and then Eric Roberts behind the glass.

1659
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:07,680
Speaker 2: It is a tradition that the producer must have a

1660
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,679
Speaker 2: failed so much prop every season so we look forward

1661
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:12,720
Speaker 2: to that mark you go first, all Right.

1662
01:14:12,920 --> 01:14:15,400
Speaker 5: The other two that I've done have been like completely

1663
01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:19,160
Speaker 5: football drenched, just football scenarios. This one is a little

1664
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:21,639
Speaker 5: bit more of something that I was thinking about recently,

1665
01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:26,360
Speaker 5: that a star quarterback loses at least one start this

1666
01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:30,320
Speaker 5: season regular season because of an off field incident involving

1667
01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:35,040
Speaker 5: a problematic individual dressed in a costume now veering towards cosplay,

1668
01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:38,720
Speaker 5: but not definitively costplay, but like a quarterback gets into

1669
01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:42,000
Speaker 5: some sort of situation that would be considered an incident

1670
01:14:42,160 --> 01:14:45,320
Speaker 5: and misses a start because of a costumed individual not

1671
01:14:45,400 --> 01:14:46,360
Speaker 5: himself in a costume.

1672
01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:49,160
Speaker 2: Bringing back Lakeisha Lkeisha just said that she's getting some

1673
01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:55,960
Speaker 2: of her Halloween costume delivered. If does that include perhaps

1674
01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:56,960
Speaker 2: a Halloween party?

1675
01:14:57,040 --> 01:14:58,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I could. Yeah.

1676
01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:00,400
Speaker 5: I think that's like you're you're getting in the hot

1677
01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:01,719
Speaker 5: zone during Halloween season.

1678
01:15:01,720 --> 01:15:05,559
Speaker 2: And I know this as a dad myself. Halloween I

1679
01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:09,000
Speaker 2: believe falls on a Tuesday this year, So these guys

1680
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:12,040
Speaker 2: are going to have their parties on let's say Friday.

1681
01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:14,599
Speaker 2: After you walk through, they'll have a nice Friday night.

1682
01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:17,840
Speaker 2: Maybe I'll take you up on it, but crazy, I'm

1683
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,920
Speaker 2: focused on Halloween on this one as being the culprit.

1684
01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:23,519
Speaker 3: Now this did you would have won one if you

1685
01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:27,280
Speaker 3: had this prop back in twenty eighteen. Maybe, I guess

1686
01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:30,479
Speaker 3: not because Chad Kelly was not a starting quarterback. But

1687
01:15:30,560 --> 01:15:34,240
Speaker 3: remember there was an incident at the von Miller Halloween

1688
01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:37,120
Speaker 3: party which I think changed swag Kelly's career.

1689
01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:38,840
Speaker 4: But I will take you up on this. Okay, this

1690
01:15:39,240 --> 01:15:41,320
Speaker 4: feels I think there's some DNA to this.

1691
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:43,600
Speaker 2: I think I had a doomed Chad Kelly prop a

1692
01:15:43,600 --> 01:15:45,760
Speaker 2: couple of years back that he would maybe make a

1693
01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 2: play for the Colts or something.

1694
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:48,360
Speaker 4: I don't think I won that you wake up on

1695
01:15:48,400 --> 01:15:49,439
Speaker 4: someone's couch or something.

1696
01:15:49,479 --> 01:15:51,960
Speaker 3: I think, yes, we spent a couple of Halloweens together

1697
01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 3: at Keys, but I have a feeling that Saint Louis

1698
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:55,040
Speaker 3: Halloween goes hard.

1699
01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:58,960
Speaker 6: I mean not the block that I live on. I

1700
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,800
Speaker 6: do miss my last Chester area. They really got into it.

1701
01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:05,040
Speaker 6: So we're we're gonna bounce around this year and see.

1702
01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:06,960
Speaker 6: But I'm definitely taking Mark up on this. I was

1703
01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:09,360
Speaker 6: hoping that there was gonna be one of the props

1704
01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:11,719
Speaker 6: that were just out there, like that's my favorite one.

1705
01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:13,880
Speaker 3: He's just gonna end up maybe with a winning record

1706
01:16:13,920 --> 01:16:14,960
Speaker 3: here because he's taking Mark.

1707
01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. All right, Actually let's sit on Lakeisha's and make

1708
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:18,760
Speaker 2: her the last one.

1709
01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:19,800
Speaker 1: Eric, what is your prop?

1710
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 7: All right, guys, So I'm gonna go with the Homer

1711
01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:26,559
Speaker 7: Homer prop. Everybody's been talking Jets defense, Okay, So I'm

1712
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:31,519
Speaker 7: going Bills outsack and out intercept the Jets this year.

1713
01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:36,400
Speaker 7: So total number out sack sacks in interceptions together different

1714
01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:40,120
Speaker 7: or so. I think the Bills had five more interceptions

1715
01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:41,000
Speaker 7: than the Jets last year.

1716
01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:42,560
Speaker 4: But I do think the Jets outside.

1717
01:16:42,600 --> 01:16:44,720
Speaker 2: Who's who's picking up all your sacks on day?

1718
01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:44,840
Speaker 4: Like?

1719
01:16:44,840 --> 01:16:46,519
Speaker 2: Who are your guys that you're gonna be in on

1720
01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:47,120
Speaker 2: the most here?

1721
01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:49,920
Speaker 7: We're so supposed to have a breakout year this year.

1722
01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:52,720
Speaker 7: Matt Mclone was always good. Von Miller when he comes back,

1723
01:16:52,760 --> 01:16:55,120
Speaker 7: hopefully he'll pick up some slack halfway through the season

1724
01:16:55,120 --> 01:16:57,080
Speaker 7: and then he's out there four weeks. You got Leonard

1725
01:16:57,080 --> 01:16:58,800
Speaker 7: Floyd is got good for about six.

1726
01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:03,679
Speaker 4: Micah Hyde, you know, Jordan Poyer, Davis White.

1727
01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:06,400
Speaker 3: I mean you're just mentioning, Oh you're talking in interceptions.

1728
01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:10,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I'm talking sex and interceptions together out numbers.

1729
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:13,800
Speaker 3: I'll take you just because the odds would say both numbers. Well, first,

1730
01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:16,760
Speaker 3: the Jets defense should be great, but also winning both

1731
01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:17,720
Speaker 3: numbers could be tough.

1732
01:17:17,720 --> 01:17:18,760
Speaker 4: Winning one, you know.

1733
01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:19,680
Speaker 1: I like that one.

1734
01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:20,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll take you.

1735
01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:24,679
Speaker 5: I think it's one of the better producer generated sandwich proper.

1736
01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:25,320
Speaker 1: I think gives the.

1737
01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:27,760
Speaker 2: Bills so much needed juice in the set after the

1738
01:17:27,840 --> 01:17:28,479
Speaker 2: events of Earth.

1739
01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:31,120
Speaker 7: I'm telling you, a month and a half or so

1740
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:33,320
Speaker 7: of hard knocks stand has been a little rough.

1741
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:34,519
Speaker 2: I came out of it.

1742
01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:35,960
Speaker 7: I'm like, dude, why do I kind of like the

1743
01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:38,160
Speaker 7: Jets and Aaron Rodgers right now? I need to beef

1744
01:17:38,240 --> 01:17:39,800
Speaker 7: up my off your blood a little.

1745
01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:41,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, Monday, Well, I think we'll do the trick.

1746
01:17:41,960 --> 01:17:45,120
Speaker 3: Speaking of producers, I do uh, I do have a

1747
01:17:45,160 --> 01:17:48,360
Speaker 3: potential other producer. One former producer sent in one. Is

1748
01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:49,080
Speaker 3: everyone taking?

1749
01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:51,519
Speaker 4: Taking you on? That keisher you take? Does she get

1750
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:52,000
Speaker 4: to take one?

1751
01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:52,320
Speaker 2: Sure?

1752
01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:53,639
Speaker 6: No, I'm Team Jets.

1753
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:55,840
Speaker 4: Sorry, ouch love that girl.

1754
01:17:56,640 --> 01:17:58,880
Speaker 3: I forgot Zach Gold. You remember Zach gol And it

1755
01:17:58,920 --> 01:18:01,599
Speaker 3: was his name, the Gold State. He had asked if

1756
01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:03,200
Speaker 3: he could send in a sandwich prop.

1757
01:18:03,280 --> 01:18:06,000
Speaker 1: Is this you remember that? Gold? Is thatl Mount Rushmore?

1758
01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:08,879
Speaker 3: No, I'm saying that, Yeah, he is on mount Rushmore

1759
01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:11,360
Speaker 3: and I get to see him once a year in Japan,

1760
01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:12,599
Speaker 3: which is always bizarre.

1761
01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:14,200
Speaker 4: And what's he got for us?

1762
01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:16,200
Speaker 3: It's a little bit of a mouthful. I know I'm

1763
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:17,800
Speaker 3: springing on, but it is kind of a fun.

1764
01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:18,400
Speaker 2: One go ahead.

1765
01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:21,439
Speaker 3: Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium will once again host games at the

1766
01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:24,639
Speaker 3: twenty twenty three International Series, but first time it will

1767
01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:28,519
Speaker 3: do so without ardent Gridiron officionado Harry Kane as striker

1768
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:31,599
Speaker 3: of the football club that calls the arena home. Kane,

1769
01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:34,280
Speaker 3: who has recently moved to Bayern Munich in Germany as

1770
01:18:34,320 --> 01:18:36,320
Speaker 3: part of one hundred and twenty seven million dollar transfer,

1771
01:18:36,360 --> 01:18:38,720
Speaker 3: may find it tricky to return to London for an

1772
01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,360
Speaker 3: event so soon He's been to every single NFL game

1773
01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:44,439
Speaker 3: there after a dramatic split from his boyhood team, while

1774
01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:46,479
Speaker 3: Peo will have two opportunities to catch an NFL game

1775
01:18:46,520 --> 01:18:50,360
Speaker 3: in Germany. This Sandwich bet reflects Harry Kane will make

1776
01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:55,559
Speaker 3: an appearance at at least one International Series game in

1777
01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:58,800
Speaker 3: London and at least one I love.

1778
01:19:00,400 --> 01:19:03,000
Speaker 4: We will see Harry Kane London and Germany.

1779
01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:05,040
Speaker 3: I'm a little confused this. I think he might be

1780
01:19:05,080 --> 01:19:07,160
Speaker 3: missing a word here. Make an appearance at least one

1781
01:19:07,240 --> 01:19:10,959
Speaker 3: nfessional series game in London and Frankfurt.

1782
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:11,439
Speaker 4: I believe.

1783
01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:12,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good.

1784
01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:17,960
Speaker 2: The international listeners will enjoy this one. Harry Kine, Uh sure,

1785
01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:18,519
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1786
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:19,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you.

1787
01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:23,000
Speaker 3: I'll take him too til end of the I know

1788
01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:24,800
Speaker 3: I am too. It's like, is he showing up? Well,

1789
01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:25,960
Speaker 3: I guess he could show up to.

1790
01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:27,720
Speaker 1: The Uh yeah, it was gonna be really good. Father

1791
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:30,000
Speaker 1: Nick four Tier. As he's writing this out, he's like, what.

1792
01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:32,240
Speaker 2: The pay me?

1793
01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:35,519
Speaker 3: He also Zach points, I have no idea if that's

1794
01:19:35,520 --> 01:19:38,040
Speaker 3: how sandwich BET's actually working, but I love back.

1795
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:39,400
Speaker 4: Yes, thanks to Zach.

1796
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:42,439
Speaker 2: All Right, Keith, close it out. It's your sandwich prop.

1797
01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:44,519
Speaker 3: So my sandwich prop.

1798
01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:46,639
Speaker 6: I had to go back to one of my favorite

1799
01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:50,680
Speaker 6: ATN podcast memories. It was back in two thousand and

1800
01:19:51,360 --> 01:19:55,000
Speaker 6: nineteen whenever my mom came into town and we were watching.

1801
01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:55,880
Speaker 1: In the market.

1802
01:19:56,200 --> 01:19:57,000
Speaker 4: I know where you're going.

1803
01:19:57,120 --> 01:20:00,799
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, she was going nuts talking about ghost plays

1804
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,439
Speaker 6: like me and Wes were just cracking up, because in

1805
01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 6: this business it can get where it's like you the

1806
01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:08,639
Speaker 6: fun of it like goes away after a while when

1807
01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:11,080
Speaker 6: you're working in it, but like hearing it from someone

1808
01:20:11,120 --> 01:20:13,080
Speaker 6: who didn't really know anything about football.

1809
01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:14,360
Speaker 4: We were just cracking up.

1810
01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:17,320
Speaker 6: And had so much fun that night. So my sandwich

1811
01:20:17,320 --> 01:20:19,760
Speaker 6: prop will be that Lamar Jackson is going to have

1812
01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:22,160
Speaker 6: an amazing season and will be top three in the

1813
01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:23,000
Speaker 6: MVP race.

1814
01:20:23,160 --> 01:20:27,320
Speaker 2: Top three for Lamar, he set out the last six games.

1815
01:20:27,360 --> 01:20:30,960
Speaker 6: He got his big contract in April, so he's got money,

1816
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:34,080
Speaker 6: he's well rested, so I expect big things from the Ravens.

1817
01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:37,800
Speaker 1: I hate to go against your mom. That's a tough one.

1818
01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:40,200
Speaker 3: It is tough because there are a few players in

1819
01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:42,960
Speaker 3: the NFL I love more than Lamar Jackson. There's a

1820
01:20:42,960 --> 01:20:46,240
Speaker 3: few humans on the world I love as much as

1821
01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 3: Lakeisha Jackson.

1822
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:49,280
Speaker 2: But you're gonna say Lamar, I was like, all right, now,

1823
01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:51,040
Speaker 2: can we just a little bit?

1824
01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:55,240
Speaker 3: But I feel like Wes would be disappointing me if

1825
01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:57,840
Speaker 3: I just didn't cold blooded steel your sandwiches like I

1826
01:20:57,840 --> 01:21:01,200
Speaker 3: would to him back, and sure, I'm making you up

1827
01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:02,639
Speaker 3: on this top three.

1828
01:21:02,720 --> 01:21:04,439
Speaker 4: It's just that's tough. That's rare era.

1829
01:21:04,600 --> 01:21:06,719
Speaker 2: I mean, he's a mark, he is a former MVP,

1830
01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:09,479
Speaker 2: and yeah, he's ostensibly in a better a fit for

1831
01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:12,559
Speaker 2: him and this could be a return to But yeah,

1832
01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:13,640
Speaker 2: I'm going to take you up on it too. I

1833
01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:16,040
Speaker 2: don't think it's implausible, but I think it's more likely

1834
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:17,639
Speaker 2: he falls outside the top three.

1835
01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:19,920
Speaker 5: I mean, I guess if not this season, then when,

1836
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:22,920
Speaker 5: because you've got your best cast of weapons and wide

1837
01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:25,920
Speaker 5: outs he's ever had. I think in general, the players

1838
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,200
Speaker 5: are happy to be in like a new offensive system,

1839
01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:31,479
Speaker 5: but it's such a crowded like crew of quarterbacks in

1840
01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:34,559
Speaker 5: that MVP conversation, So top three, I'll take you on it.

1841
01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:36,280
Speaker 2: I think he'll be outside of the top three, and

1842
01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:41,479
Speaker 2: I think cycling back to circling back to gold standards

1843
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:44,040
Speaker 2: prop I think he's saying logistically, it's going to be

1844
01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:45,719
Speaker 2: difficult for Harry Kane.

1845
01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:48,599
Speaker 1: I don't know where he is now in Germany.

1846
01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:53,160
Speaker 2: I believe it's to get to the UK an England game,

1847
01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:56,400
Speaker 2: a London game because of his schedule is different than

1848
01:21:56,400 --> 01:21:58,360
Speaker 2: it used to be because he moved from that team

1849
01:21:58,400 --> 01:21:59,320
Speaker 2: that he was at for a long time.

1850
01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:01,400
Speaker 3: Well, they're not gonna welcome him back there, I think,

1851
01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:03,680
Speaker 3: is what he's saying. But maybe he would he go

1852
01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:06,000
Speaker 3: to the UH Wembley game.

1853
01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,519
Speaker 2: I mean, welcome back, right, It's not like it's going

1854
01:22:08,560 --> 01:22:09,840
Speaker 2: to be a ceremony.

1855
01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:11,200
Speaker 1: On the field or no.

1856
01:22:11,280 --> 01:22:14,200
Speaker 3: But it would if Tom Brady would he go back

1857
01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:18,559
Speaker 3: to the Foxborough Stadium two months after the event.

1858
01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:19,640
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1859
01:22:19,680 --> 01:22:21,080
Speaker 4: I don't think they're thrilled.

1860
01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:23,559
Speaker 3: That he left, and maybe he's showing up to Wembley

1861
01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:25,559
Speaker 3: and Todham, But I did not think we'd circle back

1862
01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:28,320
Speaker 3: to zax Keish.

1863
01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:32,679
Speaker 2: Yes, so many great memories with Chris, Chris, countless memories

1864
01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:37,240
