0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Welcome in What's Right with Nick Wright? Episode two twelve? Well,

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:51.680
<v Speaker 2>who could have thunk it? Who could have imagined? We're

0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:55.320
<v Speaker 2>doing a Super Bowl preview and we're still talking about

0:00:55.320 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 2>those overrated past their prime, perpetual underdog Kansas City Chiefs.

0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 2>We'll get to that in a moment. We also have

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:10.160
<v Speaker 2>another major announcement, but first, here's what missed the cut.

0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Jokich beats Giannis in a battle of MVPs. At least

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:17.080
<v Speaker 2>Giannas showed up for it. American Airlines make special flights

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:21.240
<v Speaker 2>from Kansaity to Vegas, and Draymond smacks or fouls, depending

0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:23.080
<v Speaker 2>on how you want to look at it, Anthony Davis.

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:28.720
<v Speaker 2>But the other news is Demonse is back. We thought

0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:31.800
<v Speaker 2>it might be, you know that he was month to

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:35.240
<v Speaker 2>month certainly was gonna be weak to week. Turned out

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:39.080
<v Speaker 2>only it had to be day to day. Demonse. I'm

0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:41.880
<v Speaker 2>thrilled your back. I'm happy you're not having to go

0:01:41.959 --> 0:01:45.959
<v Speaker 2>under the knife. I didn't tell the audience what the

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:49.000
<v Speaker 2>injury was. If you want to share it, you can.

0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 2>I just said you hurt your leg playing basketball. I

0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:53.520
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you want to share your private medical

0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:54.840
<v Speaker 2>info or not leave it as.

0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:58.559
<v Speaker 3>It is just hurting for all types of different things.

0:01:58.720 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 3>You A.

0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:06.800
<v Speaker 2>So Demanse hurt himself playing basketball. We thought he was

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:09.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna have to have surgery, but he doesn't, and so

0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:11.880
<v Speaker 2>he's got a cool cast. Pretty soon he's gonna be

0:02:12.400 --> 0:02:15.200
<v Speaker 2>one of the best one legged scooter guys around Los

0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 2>Angeles and he's gonna be cooking and so uh. I also, accidentally,

0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:23.639
<v Speaker 2>I think, Demonse, because I felt so sick for you

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:27.480
<v Speaker 2>that you were injured. If you review the tape from Thursday,

0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:31.880
<v Speaker 2>I almost I think recommended people slide into your DMS.

0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:33.920
<v Speaker 2>And then I realized what I was saying, and so

0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:36.400
<v Speaker 2>I tried to pull it back. I didn't really know

0:02:36.440 --> 0:02:38.320
<v Speaker 2>what I was saying. I just felt sick that you

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:40.760
<v Speaker 2>were on the other side of the country, in massive

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:44.440
<v Speaker 2>pain and probably lonely and sad. Uh, but I'm glad

0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:48.240
<v Speaker 2>you're back. It's great to see you, and we got

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:52.040
<v Speaker 2>a lot to do today. So let's get Oh yeah,

0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:56.000
<v Speaker 2>there we go. I love to hear that. I love

0:02:56.120 --> 0:02:59.079
<v Speaker 2>to hear that. All right, so demanse, Uh, let's get

0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:02.680
<v Speaker 2>to the uh news of Championship weekend, which was, of course,

0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:04.000
<v Speaker 2>my guy beating your guy.

0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:07.400
<v Speaker 3>But go ahead, your guy beating my guy. Honestly, man,

0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 3>I gotta say this is a win win situation for me.

0:03:09.800 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 3>Lamar's not getting I'm glad Mahomes can. So obviously Mahomes

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:16.320
<v Speaker 3>and the Chiefs are going back to the Super Bowl. Uh.

0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:19.200
<v Speaker 3>Nobody saw this coming, not even you. You were kind

0:03:19.200 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 3>of down him a couple of weeks ago. You thought

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:21.480
<v Speaker 3>the Bills are going to beat.

0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 2>Him to stop it.

0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:27.000
<v Speaker 3>But uh, go ahead, who do you think deserves the

0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:31.840
<v Speaker 3>most credit for the success between Reid, Mahomes and you.

0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so I obviously don't deserve credit for the success

0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:44.480
<v Speaker 2>I do deserve credit for having this crazy belief that

0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna not pretend all of NFL history started September

0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:54.920
<v Speaker 2>seventh of this year. And this is where I want

0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:59.760
<v Speaker 2>to get into the chiefs conversation, because it has been

0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:08.200
<v Speaker 2>maddening all season. It has been beyond maddening through the

0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:11.640
<v Speaker 2>first two rounds of the playoffs, and then this morning

0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:19.560
<v Speaker 2>I found myself even angrier. And so, you know, life

0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:24.880
<v Speaker 2>works in mysterious ways. I was woken up at five

0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:31.200
<v Speaker 2>in the morning today because Dexter, our dog, who sleeps

0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:35.479
<v Speaker 2>on the I don't know the entry level of the

0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:39.320
<v Speaker 2>house and has a nice little area but he's gated off.

0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:43.799
<v Speaker 2>Just decided nope, I'm ready to get up and found

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:46.480
<v Speaker 2>a way to open up his gate. Came and laid

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.719
<v Speaker 2>right next to me where I sleep on the ground,

0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 2>and he was just laying there looking at me like

0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:55.400
<v Speaker 2>I want to be taken out. I want to hang out.

0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.760
<v Speaker 2>So I got up early this morning, very early, and

0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 2>I had nothing to do, so I'm like, you know

0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:05.240
<v Speaker 2>what I haven't Yesterday was so busy and hectic with

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:10.680
<v Speaker 2>the TV show. I haven't listened to all my favorite

0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:15.599
<v Speaker 2>NFL recap podcasts that I usually listen to you know

0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:20.080
<v Speaker 2>throughout Monday and then into Tuesday. So I gave them

0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 2>a you know, gave them a whirl. And I can't

0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:29.279
<v Speaker 2>believe what I heard from some of my favorite analysts

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 2>about this football game. I cannot believe that as the

0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:42.480
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs are twelve days away from playing in the last

0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:48.359
<v Speaker 2>game of the year, the conversation surrounding them is still

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 2>what they don't do great, rather than recognizing what they

0:05:54.720 --> 0:06:00.200
<v Speaker 2>have done this postseason. The Kansas City Chiefs entered this

0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:07.479
<v Speaker 2>postseason and proved they had the roster, versatility and depth

0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 2>two play three totally different styles of playoff games in

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:23.960
<v Speaker 2>any conditions in any setting against the hands down three

0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:29.480
<v Speaker 2>best other teams in the AFC, and they kicked all

0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 2>of their asses. Okay, Round one, Miami, Do we have

0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:41.920
<v Speaker 2>a team that is tough enough and built with enough

0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 2>depth that we can handle one of the three coldest

0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:50.920
<v Speaker 2>football games ever played and make it look like it's

0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:55.279
<v Speaker 2>a normal game. Yes we can. Can they absolutely not

0:06:56.400 --> 0:07:04.240
<v Speaker 2>check one Buffalo? Can we totally throw at Buffalo a

0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:10.640
<v Speaker 2>defensive game plan Josh Allen has never seen before where

0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 2>we just give him the underneath, give it to him

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:20.120
<v Speaker 2>all day, never take it away. Dare you to do

0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:25.240
<v Speaker 2>it while not allowing anything over the top and on

0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:30.200
<v Speaker 2>the flip side our allegedly broken offense. Can it go

0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:33.520
<v Speaker 2>up and down the field? And this was the most

0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:41.840
<v Speaker 2>underrated stat of this postseason. Can we average nearly nine

0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:46.960
<v Speaker 2>yards per play until the kneel downs against that Bills team,

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:52.040
<v Speaker 2>the most of any playoff game of the Mahomes era? Yes?

0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:57.200
<v Speaker 2>Can we dominate that game where we're underdogs on the

0:07:57.320 --> 0:08:00.840
<v Speaker 2>road against a team that every one in the media

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:04.240
<v Speaker 2>but me thought might win the Super Bowl, that everyone

0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:11.280
<v Speaker 2>in the media swore was a legitimate championship contender with

0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:14.120
<v Speaker 2>a legitimate MVP quarterback, that was the hottest team in

0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:18.480
<v Speaker 2>the league. Can we dominate that game so thoroughly that

0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:23.320
<v Speaker 2>we fumble the ball at the one yard line going

0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:28.240
<v Speaker 2>into score and win anyway? Yes, we can, despite Buffalo

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:32.280
<v Speaker 2>never turning it over. Yep, we can do that. And

0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:37.400
<v Speaker 2>then Baltimore, can we design in six days a game

0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:42.319
<v Speaker 2>plan that is the polar opposite of what Buffalo did

0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo's game plan. Instead of daring them to take the underneath,

0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:51.679
<v Speaker 2>instead of giving them the running lanes to protect over

0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:56.480
<v Speaker 2>the top, do the exact opposite. Leave our corners out

0:08:56.520 --> 0:09:02.120
<v Speaker 2>on islands to go heat up the MVP, A team that,

0:09:02.280 --> 0:09:05.520
<v Speaker 2>by DVOA and smart People's stats, was one of the

0:09:05.520 --> 0:09:12.319
<v Speaker 2>most dominant teams from start to finish in NFL history.

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Can we make them look totally out of sorts? Yeah,

0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:23.040
<v Speaker 2>we can do that too. And the takeaway for some

0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:29.800
<v Speaker 2>people is that, Ah, Baltimore did it to themselves. The

0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:34.200
<v Speaker 2>takeaway is how how they do it to themselves? Tell me,

0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:36.439
<v Speaker 2>tell me when Baltimore did it to themselves?

0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:38.760
<v Speaker 3>Tell me, well, I just know that. I just know

0:09:38.800 --> 0:09:41.079
<v Speaker 3>that they didn't run the balls as much as you.

0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Exactly. That's what everybody is fucking saying. Do you think

0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:51.480
<v Speaker 2>there's a reason do you think, guys, that was available

0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:56.120
<v Speaker 2>or do you think the Chiefs defensive game plan was

0:09:57.120 --> 0:10:01.800
<v Speaker 2>put them in fronts and look where they feel like

0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 2>passing is the better option. Do we think Baltimore, which

0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:10.840
<v Speaker 2>is dominated running the football for six years in the

0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:14.680
<v Speaker 2>biggest game they've played forgot about it or were first

0:10:14.760 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 2>forced out of it by the best defense in the NFL.

0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Because that's what Kansas City is and that's what everyone

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:29.560
<v Speaker 2>has missed all year. Going into the Baltimore game, all

0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:33.720
<v Speaker 2>we heard about was this dominant Ravens defense. Well, let's

0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:37.280
<v Speaker 2>look at the numbers. The Ravens defense this year was

0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:41.200
<v Speaker 2>number six in yards allowed, the Chiefs were number two.

0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:45.120
<v Speaker 2>The Ravens defense was number one in points allowed sixteen

0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:50.000
<v Speaker 2>and a half. The Chiefs were number two seventeen point three. However,

0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:55.840
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens defense this year forced thirty one turnovers. The

0:10:55.920 --> 0:11:00.240
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs forced only seventeen. The Ravens didn't turn the ball over,

0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.280
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs turn it over a ton. The Ravens had

0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:05.680
<v Speaker 2>the number one turnover differential, the Chiefs had the fifth worst.

0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:08.000
<v Speaker 2>So there's a number of ways to look at that,

0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:13.600
<v Speaker 2>but one of them is this. Absent turnovers, the Chiefs

0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:16.120
<v Speaker 2>have been the most dominant team in the league defensively

0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:20.880
<v Speaker 2>despite not forcing the turnovers. And if and when they

0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:24.680
<v Speaker 2>do get some of that turnover luck, some of those

0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:28.240
<v Speaker 2>fumbles bounce their way, some of those tip passes they

0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:31.760
<v Speaker 2>end up picking off, the defense will be even better.

0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:38.200
<v Speaker 2>And so yeah, people can say Baltimore got out of

0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:43.199
<v Speaker 2>what they needed to do. But just like Buffalo fumbled

0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:47.520
<v Speaker 2>on their first play of the game through a crossfield

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:51.160
<v Speaker 2>lateral on their third play of the game and ran

0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:53.320
<v Speaker 2>a fake punt in a three point game in the

0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:58.840
<v Speaker 2>fourth quarter. You know why teams do weird when they're

0:11:58.840 --> 0:12:03.520
<v Speaker 2>playing the Chiefs because staring across the sideline and seeing

0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:09.120
<v Speaker 2>Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid terrifies them because they don't

0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:13.160
<v Speaker 2>think they're gonna be able to win seventeen fourteen. They

0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:16.319
<v Speaker 2>think they are going to have to score thirty, so

0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:20.640
<v Speaker 2>they do weird stuff because you've got a superhero on

0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:23.360
<v Speaker 2>the other side of the field. Every team in the

0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:27.120
<v Speaker 2>league is afraid of the Chiefs. While the media I

0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:32.240
<v Speaker 2>had to listen to three weeks ago, people were, honest

0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:35.880
<v Speaker 2>to God having this discussion. All right, obviously the Ravens

0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:39.160
<v Speaker 2>are the best team, and obviously the Bills are the

0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:42.600
<v Speaker 2>second best team. But if it's not one of those teams,

0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:45.480
<v Speaker 2>who do you like out of the AFC and is

0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:48.600
<v Speaker 2>not a straw man, everyone knows it happened. I had

0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:51.200
<v Speaker 2>to listen to people saying, well, if it's not Ravens

0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:53.760
<v Speaker 2>or Bills, you know the team I'd look out for

0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:58.080
<v Speaker 2>the Cleveland Browns and Joe Flacco. There was more faith

0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:02.160
<v Speaker 2>in that Browns team than this Chiefs team. And then

0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:06.920
<v Speaker 2>this week there's been no Mia Colpis. The only thing

0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:12.160
<v Speaker 2>has been all never doubt Mahomes, all these shows that

0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:16.840
<v Speaker 2>have picked against the Chiefs every round. It's now like

0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:21.120
<v Speaker 2>they just found out Patrick Mahomes exists. They're like, oh, well,

0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:23.640
<v Speaker 2>now we know until you know in ten days when

0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:25.880
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna pick brock Perdy to beat them. But set

0:13:25.960 --> 0:13:29.319
<v Speaker 2>that aside. So let's then talk about the other part

0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:32.480
<v Speaker 2>of this that nobody understands.

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:34.319
<v Speaker 3>The bad officiating.

0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.960
<v Speaker 2>What was the bad officiating Demons, No, it was I.

0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:45.600
<v Speaker 3>Was just taking like a little little mini shot. I

0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.240
<v Speaker 3>know there was some bad calls in there. I do

0:13:48.440 --> 0:13:51.080
<v Speaker 3>notice that the announcer was like, oh, the ball was

0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:54.120
<v Speaker 3>already there before the interference came. It was the last

0:13:54.120 --> 0:13:56.560
<v Speaker 3>play of the game. The ball definitely wasn't there. But

0:13:56.600 --> 0:13:58.439
<v Speaker 3>that's that's like a little thing like I feel like

0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:01.720
<v Speaker 3>that type of stuff gets miscalled throughout the entire game.

0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:05.679
<v Speaker 3>But but no, I don't you know what.

0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Let's deal with the officiating now. I was gonna talk

0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.440
<v Speaker 2>about the Chiefs often. Let's deal with the officiating now.

0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:16.199
<v Speaker 2>Baltimore had so the foul discrepancy was massive because Baltimore

0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:21.200
<v Speaker 2>committed five fifteen yard personal foul penalties because they were

0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:24.760
<v Speaker 2>an undisciplined immature team on Sunday. But let's talk about

0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:30.200
<v Speaker 2>all five. Okay, there is one when Kyle van Noy,

0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:34.120
<v Speaker 2>right in front of the official head butts Travis Kelcey.

0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:38.200
<v Speaker 2>You can say, don't call it, but that's a personal foul.

0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:43.040
<v Speaker 2>There was a second one when Jadeveon Clowney leads with

0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:47.040
<v Speaker 2>his head into Mahomes's helmet. We can say the NFL

0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:50.440
<v Speaker 2>saw if you can say whatever. Everyone who watches football

0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:55.360
<v Speaker 2>knows that has been called all for five years now

0:14:55.560 --> 0:15:00.800
<v Speaker 2>against every quarterback that's except for maybe unfortunately U justin fields.

0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:03.640
<v Speaker 2>He doesn't get those calls. Everyone else seems to. That's two.

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:08.560
<v Speaker 2>The third one was a play that should have been

0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 2>a thirty yard personal foul when the d lineman i

0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:18.520
<v Speaker 2>mean close lines Mahomes in the face, rips his head

0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:21.200
<v Speaker 2>back and then drops a people's elbow on him on

0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:25.880
<v Speaker 2>the ground. That was the third. The fourth one was

0:15:26.440 --> 0:15:30.720
<v Speaker 2>the Zay Flowers taunting, which you can hate, but if

0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:34.800
<v Speaker 2>you push a guy down, spin the ball and flex,

0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:39.480
<v Speaker 2>that's a dumb play by Zay Flowers. And the fifth

0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:44.120
<v Speaker 2>one the Ravens wanted to do that was the intentional

0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:47.520
<v Speaker 2>off sides, but that ended up being fifteen yards because

0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:49.840
<v Speaker 2>they didn't want the Chiefs have first and five. So

0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:53.120
<v Speaker 2>all five personal fouls were legit. That's the first point.

0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:57.280
<v Speaker 2>The second point if we are going to parse, Oh,

0:15:57.440 --> 0:15:59.880
<v Speaker 2>but they might have missed a pass interference when the

0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Evens for down ten with two and a half minutes remaining.

0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:07.960
<v Speaker 2>Then let's also discuss the fact that Chris Jones got

0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:12.280
<v Speaker 2>leg whipped and tripped in the end zone and that's

0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:17.160
<v Speaker 2>a safety. That's a that's a safety. That's then nineteen

0:16:17.200 --> 0:16:21.760
<v Speaker 2>to seven. Or we could discuss the fact that the Chiefs,

0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:26.120
<v Speaker 2>for the second time this postseason, the Chiefs will get

0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:29.840
<v Speaker 2>all the calls for the second time in three games

0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:34.000
<v Speaker 2>in the playoffs, have had a touchdown on a screen

0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:38.360
<v Speaker 2>pass to Rashi Rice taken off the board due to

0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:44.600
<v Speaker 2>a phantom holding penalty. I'll give someone I don't want to.

0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:49.120
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you de Monsey one thousand dollars if you

0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:51.800
<v Speaker 2>can show me the hold that took away a forty

0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:56.080
<v Speaker 2>yard Rashi Rice touchdown. So the officiating stuff is just

0:16:56.720 --> 0:17:02.760
<v Speaker 2>losers whining. Could there have been a past interference called

0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:07.200
<v Speaker 2>right before the Ravens kicked the field goal, Absolutely, no doubt,

0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:10.080
<v Speaker 2>Just like there could have been a safety called when

0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:13.560
<v Speaker 2>Chris Jones got when Gus Edwards did a damn karate

0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:20.920
<v Speaker 2>kick to Chris Jones's thigh, safety, Yeah, exactly, and so yes,

0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:24.360
<v Speaker 2>of course. But the idea that the whistle went drastic

0:17:24.400 --> 0:17:28.000
<v Speaker 2>in one direction is not accurate to the scenario. But

0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:32.360
<v Speaker 2>what I was getting to was people are pointing out, oh,

0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:38.160
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs struggled offensively in the second half, to a degree yes,

0:17:38.320 --> 0:17:41.960
<v Speaker 2>and to a degree no. So yes, in that the

0:17:42.040 --> 0:17:44.399
<v Speaker 2>Ravens did figure some things out, and that is a

0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:51.640
<v Speaker 2>great defense. But what nobody seems to recognize, and it's

0:17:51.640 --> 0:17:56.800
<v Speaker 2>so painfully obvious if you're looking at this with any

0:17:56.880 --> 0:18:02.120
<v Speaker 2>type of clear eyes, is the Chiefs were up ten

0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:06.440
<v Speaker 2>for every second of the second half until the final possession.

0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:13.040
<v Speaker 2>As long as they had a two score lead and

0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:16.440
<v Speaker 2>were dominating the Ravens. When the Ravens had the ball,

0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:24.320
<v Speaker 2>the Chief's offensive approach was going to be no mistakes allowed.

0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:29.600
<v Speaker 2>So were their likely throws Mahomes could have made. But

0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:33.000
<v Speaker 2>it would have been a tight window because the Chiefs

0:18:33.080 --> 0:18:35.600
<v Speaker 2>receivers aren't good enough to get wide open against the

0:18:35.640 --> 0:18:39.879
<v Speaker 2>great Ravens Stephens. Yes, were there plays that if the

0:18:40.000 --> 0:18:43.600
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs had to move the ball. Mahomes would have taken

0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:49.040
<v Speaker 2>the chance, of course, But because Patrick Mahomes, unlike some

0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:54.120
<v Speaker 2>of his contemporaries, is a grown adult quarterback that understands

0:18:54.560 --> 0:19:00.199
<v Speaker 2>situational football, he decided, I'm not putting the ball and

0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:03.560
<v Speaker 2>jeopardy and it is and the fact that nobody has

0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:07.679
<v Speaker 2>seemed to square the circle of Oh wait, what was

0:19:07.760 --> 0:19:12.800
<v Speaker 2>the one drive the Chiefs in the second half threw

0:19:12.880 --> 0:19:16.959
<v Speaker 2>the ball deep downfield and converted. Oh yeah, it was

0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:21.920
<v Speaker 2>the one drive where if they don't convert, the Ravens

0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:26.040
<v Speaker 2>get the ball back down just one score the play

0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:30.680
<v Speaker 2>to MBS. Every other time the Chiefs had the ball,

0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes knew if this ends in a punt, the worst

0:19:35.680 --> 0:19:38.920
<v Speaker 2>case scenario is I get the ball back with the lead.

0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:43.719
<v Speaker 2>So just have it end in a punt unless something

0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:48.400
<v Speaker 2>is wide open and easy. It was the old Andy

0:19:48.480 --> 0:19:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Reid shutdown mode in the AFC title game, and folks

0:19:55.600 --> 0:20:00.480
<v Speaker 2>are so desperate to have the Chiefs be this high

0:20:00.520 --> 0:20:06.439
<v Speaker 2>flying team they fail to recognize that Mahomes, after his

0:20:06.640 --> 0:20:11.840
<v Speaker 2>one bad playoff half ever that game against Cincinnati, has

0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:16.439
<v Speaker 2>done two things. He has stopped flinging it downfield in

0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:20.960
<v Speaker 2>the postseason and also stopped taking sacks or turning the

0:20:21.000 --> 0:20:25.800
<v Speaker 2>ball over. In that time, the team is six and zero.

0:20:26.000 --> 0:20:30.800
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes has zeroed interceptions. He has in those six games

0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:35.200
<v Speaker 2>taken a total of five sacks, and he is protecting

0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:38.840
<v Speaker 2>the ball at all costs. Because here's the other thing

0:20:38.880 --> 0:20:42.640
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes knows. I'll throw a trivia question at you, Demanse.

0:20:43.200 --> 0:20:47.280
<v Speaker 2>In the last five years, the Chiefs have played twenty

0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:51.879
<v Speaker 2>six games in the playoffs in regular season from twenty

0:20:51.920 --> 0:20:55.760
<v Speaker 2>eighteen to right now, since the the I'm sorry twenty

0:20:55.880 --> 0:20:58.359
<v Speaker 2>nineteen to right now, the last five years since they

0:20:58.400 --> 0:21:01.119
<v Speaker 2>started winning Super Bowls to right now, they've played twenty

0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:04.480
<v Speaker 2>six games where Mahomes had zero turnovers. What do you

0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:07.439
<v Speaker 2>think their record is in those games where he has

0:21:07.520 --> 0:21:08.639
<v Speaker 2>zero turnovers out.

0:21:11.240 --> 0:21:15.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, playoffs, I'd say twenty six, twenty six to zero,

0:21:16.000 --> 0:21:17.280
<v Speaker 3>twenty five and one.

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Almost twenty five and one, twenty five and one. So

0:21:22.440 --> 0:21:28.040
<v Speaker 2>he's he is recognized, especially with this defense. We have

0:21:28.080 --> 0:21:33.679
<v Speaker 2>a lead on Baltimore that doesn't that can't move the football.

0:21:33.720 --> 0:21:37.080
<v Speaker 2>Why would I put the ball in jeopardy? So I

0:21:37.160 --> 0:21:42.680
<v Speaker 2>do this twenty minute rant because I I can't believe

0:21:44.080 --> 0:21:48.199
<v Speaker 2>we are in the midst we are one game away

0:21:49.240 --> 0:21:54.960
<v Speaker 2>from the Kansas City Chiefs having finished, by any metric,

0:21:55.680 --> 0:21:58.280
<v Speaker 2>the greatest five year run in the history of the league.

0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:03.720
<v Speaker 2>I will say that again, one win away from the

0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:08.520
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs having executed the greatest five year run in the

0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:13.480
<v Speaker 2>history of the league. Only one other team in any

0:22:13.640 --> 0:22:17.840
<v Speaker 2>five year stretching NFL history has won three Super Bowls,

0:22:18.280 --> 0:22:24.359
<v Speaker 2>been to four, and that's the twenty fourteen to twenty

0:22:24.400 --> 0:22:27.920
<v Speaker 2>eighteen Patriots. Both of those teams, in the one year

0:22:28.000 --> 0:22:30.240
<v Speaker 2>they didn't win the super or make the Super Bowl

0:22:30.560 --> 0:22:34.159
<v Speaker 2>lost in the conference championship game, and the Chiefs have

0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:38.760
<v Speaker 2>bettered them in the regular season by two wins, so

0:22:38.800 --> 0:22:42.320
<v Speaker 2>they would have the same postseason resume, same postseason, all

0:22:42.359 --> 0:22:45.399
<v Speaker 2>of it, and two regular season wins better one and

0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:50.200
<v Speaker 2>nothing else comes close. The one to five Patriots went

0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:52.879
<v Speaker 2>to three Super Bowls, but in five didn't go to

0:22:52.920 --> 0:22:55.719
<v Speaker 2>the conference title game and an O two missed the playoffs.

0:22:55.880 --> 0:22:58.840
<v Speaker 2>The ninety one to ninety five Cowboys went to three

0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:05.639
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowls, won them, but in ninety three they lost

0:23:05.680 --> 0:23:08.400
<v Speaker 2>the Conference tidle game. In ninety five didn't get there

0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:10.400
<v Speaker 2>or I have those years wrong. But in ninety two

0:23:10.440 --> 0:23:14.560
<v Speaker 2>to ninety six whatever it is. The Steelers won four

0:23:14.600 --> 0:23:16.960
<v Speaker 2>out of six, but the two years in between didn't

0:23:16.960 --> 0:23:20.000
<v Speaker 2>go to the Super Bowl. No one has done what

0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:22.720
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs have done over the last five years other

0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:26.040
<v Speaker 2>than the fourteen to eighteen Patriots, and with a win Sunday,

0:23:26.080 --> 0:23:30.840
<v Speaker 2>they trump that. And the fact that the storylines all

0:23:31.040 --> 0:23:36.040
<v Speaker 2>playoffs have been about the other teams is insulting to

0:23:36.119 --> 0:23:41.040
<v Speaker 2>the audience and insulting to history. The storyline after the

0:23:41.080 --> 0:23:44.879
<v Speaker 2>first Dolphins game was it was too cold for Tua.

0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Shut up, it's professional football. The storyline after the Chiefs

0:23:51.680 --> 0:23:56.760
<v Speaker 2>went into Buffalo and won was that the reason this

0:23:57.119 --> 0:24:03.760
<v Speaker 2>was the game of Josh Allen's entire career with the

0:24:03.760 --> 0:24:07.439
<v Speaker 2>fewest big plays zero and the most passes behind the

0:24:07.440 --> 0:24:12.680
<v Speaker 2>line of scrimmage sixteen was because the Bills linebackers were hurt.

0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:18.560
<v Speaker 2>And the storyline yesterday was God dogg it the Ravens.

0:24:19.000 --> 0:24:23.400
<v Speaker 2>They forgot to run the ball. Imagine that they just forgot,

0:24:24.359 --> 0:24:29.640
<v Speaker 2>Like there's this thing that they so clearly would have worked. Look, guys,

0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:33.880
<v Speaker 2>it was. It worked awesome the three times they did it,

0:24:34.320 --> 0:24:40.600
<v Speaker 2>and amazingly, just by kismet, they forgot to do it. Oh,

0:24:40.720 --> 0:24:44.639
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs got lucky. They got lucky and what that legit?

0:24:48.160 --> 0:24:50.200
<v Speaker 3>They were trying to get it back on the Ravens.

0:24:50.240 --> 0:24:53.760
<v Speaker 3>You know, they kept on those oh those deep routes

0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:55.960
<v Speaker 3>and stopping. They were trying to get back in the game.

0:24:56.200 --> 0:24:58.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it was something that they clearly forgot

0:24:58.720 --> 0:25:02.040
<v Speaker 3>to do, but yeah, I mean it does the chief

0:25:02.280 --> 0:25:04.560
<v Speaker 3>They're trying to get back in the game because the

0:25:04.640 --> 0:25:05.200
<v Speaker 3>Chiefs were.

0:25:05.200 --> 0:25:09.200
<v Speaker 2>Kicking their ass. They didn't start the game down ten.

0:25:11.000 --> 0:25:16.280
<v Speaker 2>And then oh, how about lagerious Snead first us Sneed

0:25:17.720 --> 0:25:19.359
<v Speaker 2>put them on Jay back on camera here if we

0:25:19.400 --> 0:25:24.919
<v Speaker 2>could before the punch out. How about the fact that

0:25:24.960 --> 0:25:28.600
<v Speaker 2>when Zay Flowers catches that bomb, he gets him down

0:25:28.600 --> 0:25:32.879
<v Speaker 2>in open space. When Zay Flowers catches the right before

0:25:32.880 --> 0:25:36.760
<v Speaker 2>he taunts him, Zay Flowers is one almost Sneed to

0:25:36.800 --> 0:25:40.080
<v Speaker 2>the end zone and and Sneed just got him on

0:25:40.119 --> 0:25:44.680
<v Speaker 2>the ground, lived to fight another down, and then they

0:25:44.680 --> 0:25:46.800
<v Speaker 2>get the fifteen yard penalty, but they get those yards

0:25:46.880 --> 0:25:49.919
<v Speaker 2>right back. They get those yards right back, does Baltimore.

0:25:50.640 --> 0:25:55.400
<v Speaker 2>And Jay Flowers is streaking towards the end zone and

0:25:55.560 --> 0:26:00.879
<v Speaker 2>Snead with a perfect punch and save seventh.

0:26:00.880 --> 0:26:03.520
<v Speaker 3>Though it was impossible that he actually punched that out,

0:26:03.720 --> 0:26:07.040
<v Speaker 3>like I thought, he's still scoring. A way for the record,

0:26:07.320 --> 0:26:08.000
<v Speaker 3>I did too.

0:26:08.520 --> 0:26:12.960
<v Speaker 2>I saw that the refs were signaling touchback and I said,

0:26:13.119 --> 0:26:17.879
<v Speaker 2>I Beamani was there. I said. I was like, no,

0:26:18.000 --> 0:26:20.359
<v Speaker 2>I think he I said to him. I was like,

0:26:20.440 --> 0:26:23.680
<v Speaker 2>he definitely fumbled, but I thought he had already broken

0:26:23.720 --> 0:26:24.840
<v Speaker 2>the plane that.

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:27.920
<v Speaker 3>Was had to play the game.

0:26:28.200 --> 0:26:32.919
<v Speaker 2>It was an insane, insane play by Sneed. And so

0:26:33.800 --> 0:26:36.439
<v Speaker 2>I just and beople like, well, and there's another thing

0:26:36.480 --> 0:26:41.879
<v Speaker 2>I heard yesterday, another thing I literally heard yesterday. Well,

0:26:42.200 --> 0:26:44.679
<v Speaker 2>you know, we talk about all these big picture things

0:26:44.720 --> 0:26:47.919
<v Speaker 2>and game plans and this and that, and we talk legacies,

0:26:48.119 --> 0:26:51.399
<v Speaker 2>when in reality, if you're about to score, if you

0:26:51.440 --> 0:26:53.440
<v Speaker 2>fumble at the one yard line and the other team

0:26:53.440 --> 0:26:57.960
<v Speaker 2>gets the ball, you just lose. Except the fact the

0:26:58.000 --> 0:27:00.880
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs did that last week and one. Anyway, they did

0:27:00.880 --> 0:27:04.760
<v Speaker 2>it last week and one, so you can win. There

0:27:04.840 --> 0:27:09.560
<v Speaker 2>is a way, be better, be better? All right? What's

0:27:09.600 --> 0:27:11.000
<v Speaker 2>the last follow up? Here? Tomorrow?

0:27:11.040 --> 0:27:16.159
<v Speaker 3>Said the serious one? So what do you think of

0:27:16.240 --> 0:27:19.560
<v Speaker 3>the Taylor the Taylor Swift based conspiracy theories?

0:27:21.320 --> 0:27:25.320
<v Speaker 2>All right? So this is this is my favorite, my

0:27:25.520 --> 0:27:33.640
<v Speaker 2>favorite added bonus of this Chief's dynasty. It's not only

0:27:33.720 --> 0:27:37.800
<v Speaker 2>that the Chiefs are so good now they're driving people

0:27:37.880 --> 0:27:43.960
<v Speaker 2>crazy there, what'd you say?

0:27:44.760 --> 0:27:48.560
<v Speaker 3>I mean, just starting to get a little stuff, starting

0:27:48.560 --> 0:27:51.240
<v Speaker 3>to get a little annoying. Like I'm I'm I'm a

0:27:51.480 --> 0:27:55.080
<v Speaker 3>chiefs ally and I'm just I see both sides. I

0:27:55.119 --> 0:27:58.240
<v Speaker 3>can see how people are annoyed by Taylor Swift being

0:27:58.240 --> 0:28:00.240
<v Speaker 3>shoved down their throats.

0:28:00.280 --> 0:28:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Kelsey, Okay, well, hold on, hold on second, hold on second,

0:28:06.920 --> 0:28:09.399
<v Speaker 2>Hold on a second, the tailor Swift being shoved down

0:28:09.440 --> 0:28:14.240
<v Speaker 2>their throats. That that's uh, that's a matter of perspective.

0:28:14.560 --> 0:28:19.440
<v Speaker 2>Because Taylor Swift has been shown in all three playoff

0:28:19.520 --> 0:28:23.800
<v Speaker 2>games less than Jason Kelsey was shown in the one,

0:28:24.240 --> 0:28:27.080
<v Speaker 2>and everyone loved what he did. Every everybody loved it.

0:28:27.160 --> 0:28:29.639
<v Speaker 2>And that's and and that's that's literal. You can check it.

0:28:29.960 --> 0:28:33.840
<v Speaker 2>In the Chiefs Ravens game, Taylor Swift was on camera

0:28:34.760 --> 0:28:39.080
<v Speaker 2>three and a half seconds longer than crabcakes were during

0:28:39.080 --> 0:28:42.880
<v Speaker 2>the broadcast. Check the tape, and nobody's like, oh my god,

0:28:43.320 --> 0:28:47.920
<v Speaker 2>uh big Seafood pushing this agenda like so so it's

0:28:47.960 --> 0:28:51.600
<v Speaker 2>just it's just nonsense. It's just people that is so so,

0:28:51.800 --> 0:28:54.240
<v Speaker 2>that's not even what I'm talking about. What I'm saying

0:28:54.320 --> 0:28:58.320
<v Speaker 2>is the cheat. And as far as Justin Tucker, Justin Tucker,

0:28:58.360 --> 0:29:02.720
<v Speaker 2>warm up somewhere else, clown, your greatest kicker ever. That's great, Sorry, buddy,

0:29:02.800 --> 0:29:04.920
<v Speaker 2>warm up somewhere else, like the.

0:29:05.400 --> 0:29:07.560
<v Speaker 3>And he had a quote crazy.

0:29:08.720 --> 0:29:12.960
<v Speaker 2>That, Yeah, the whole field you're warming up in intentionally

0:29:13.120 --> 0:29:16.240
<v Speaker 2>in the exact spot Mahomes is doing his dropbacks, like

0:29:16.800 --> 0:29:19.280
<v Speaker 2>play dumb games, win dumb prizes. Pal, you gonna have

0:29:19.320 --> 0:29:22.400
<v Speaker 2>your stupid tea and ball thrown aside by the year.

0:29:22.800 --> 0:29:26.280
<v Speaker 2>You're trying to poke Mahomes and Kelsey. How'd that work

0:29:26.280 --> 0:29:28.960
<v Speaker 2>out for you? Oh yeah, Kelsey's greatest game of his career.

0:29:29.120 --> 0:29:34.520
<v Speaker 2>So smart job. Also, the I mean Kel's Tucker had

0:29:34.560 --> 0:29:37.680
<v Speaker 2>a great quote where he was like, you know, I

0:29:37.840 --> 0:29:40.040
<v Speaker 2>was just you know, kind of having fun messing around.

0:29:40.120 --> 0:29:42.640
<v Speaker 2>They were taking it real serious. Yeah, that's a good

0:29:42.640 --> 0:29:45.800
<v Speaker 2>micro cosm for the whole game. The Chiefs took it

0:29:45.880 --> 0:29:50.080
<v Speaker 2>quite serious. You guys spent some Here's a fact, a

0:29:50.360 --> 0:29:55.160
<v Speaker 2>fact at some point during the week leading up to

0:29:55.240 --> 0:29:59.280
<v Speaker 2>the biggest game the Ravens franchise has ever had in

0:29:59.320 --> 0:30:04.080
<v Speaker 2>their building. About to say there was some time, Nope,

0:30:04.320 --> 0:30:09.000
<v Speaker 2>there was some time during the week of practice where

0:30:09.600 --> 0:30:12.200
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens offense was like, all right, guys, real quick,

0:30:12.920 --> 0:30:17.960
<v Speaker 2>let's choreograph our swagsurfing routine. I don't know I would

0:30:17.960 --> 0:30:21.000
<v Speaker 2>have maybe used that time on ball security. So basically

0:30:21.800 --> 0:30:25.160
<v Speaker 2>because they told us, they told us before the game

0:30:25.960 --> 0:30:28.760
<v Speaker 2>that he had a dance planned. And for anyone wondering

0:30:29.040 --> 0:30:32.000
<v Speaker 2>why did they do swagsurfing, it's because the Baltimore Ravens

0:30:32.040 --> 0:30:34.719
<v Speaker 2>were mocking the wives and girlfriends of the Kansaity Chiefs.

0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:39.880
<v Speaker 2>To be very clear, that's what it was. Patrick Mahomes's

0:30:39.880 --> 0:30:44.280
<v Speaker 2>wife and Taylor Swift in the playoff game in round

0:30:44.320 --> 0:30:47.640
<v Speaker 2>one did the swagsurfing thing and everyone thought it was

0:30:47.760 --> 0:30:50.760
<v Speaker 2>terrible because it's a couple of white girls doing swagsurfing,

0:30:51.120 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 2>and the Ravens decided that's gonna be our touchdown dance.

0:30:55.120 --> 0:30:57.719
<v Speaker 2>We are going to do it to mock them, and

0:30:57.800 --> 0:31:01.000
<v Speaker 2>so good. I'm glad you guys had You seemed like

0:31:01.040 --> 0:31:04.080
<v Speaker 2>a very serious operation this week, given the fact that

0:31:04.120 --> 0:31:06.720
<v Speaker 2>on the biggest defensive drive year season you started out

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:09.200
<v Speaker 2>with twelve men on the field. You had everything totally

0:31:09.240 --> 0:31:11.880
<v Speaker 2>buttoned up. Nothing to worry about there, But I'm glad

0:31:11.920 --> 0:31:14.080
<v Speaker 2>you got your dance routine in But as I was

0:31:14.120 --> 0:31:22.480
<v Speaker 2>trying to say, I know for absolute certainty that's what

0:31:22.560 --> 0:31:26.120
<v Speaker 2>they were doing because the the tailor and Britney doing

0:31:26.160 --> 0:31:26.600
<v Speaker 2>the sweat.

0:31:26.680 --> 0:31:27.320
<v Speaker 3>I saw them.

0:31:27.640 --> 0:31:31.400
<v Speaker 2>It's the Dolphins. Yeah, you think all of a sudden

0:31:31.440 --> 0:31:35.080
<v Speaker 2>that just became super popular again the Ravens. No Zay

0:31:35.160 --> 0:31:39.240
<v Speaker 2>said before the game, we have something planned. Yeah, it

0:31:39.280 --> 0:31:42.760
<v Speaker 2>wasn't a coincidence. And listen, they at least they didn't

0:31:42.800 --> 0:31:44.920
<v Speaker 2>save it. Well, you know what would have really sucked

0:31:44.920 --> 0:31:47.719
<v Speaker 2>for Baltimore if they were like, save that for our

0:31:47.880 --> 0:31:50.400
<v Speaker 2>second touchdown. That'll really get them because then they never

0:31:50.400 --> 0:31:52.560
<v Speaker 2>would have gotten to do it because they only got

0:31:52.560 --> 0:31:59.640
<v Speaker 2>the one touchdown. But as I was saying about, uh,

0:31:59.880 --> 0:32:03.800
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe it's not only that the Chiefs are

0:32:03.880 --> 0:32:10.160
<v Speaker 2>so good they're driving people crazy, but they have just

0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:17.120
<v Speaker 2>by happenstance, stumbled upon the hornet's nest of the dumbest

0:32:17.800 --> 0:32:21.400
<v Speaker 2>and worst people in the world who hate them the most.

0:32:22.200 --> 0:32:26.360
<v Speaker 2>The folks who were saying that Travis Kelcey is slowing

0:32:26.400 --> 0:32:31.040
<v Speaker 2>down because he got too many boosters and on Nick

0:32:31.080 --> 0:32:34.960
<v Speaker 2>that's a straw man. Nope, a former colleague of mine

0:32:35.040 --> 0:32:37.719
<v Speaker 2>who is one of the largest syndicated talk show hosts

0:32:37.760 --> 0:32:40.760
<v Speaker 2>in America and also one of the worst sports betters

0:32:40.760 --> 0:32:43.640
<v Speaker 2>of all time, has that take out there on the

0:32:43.680 --> 0:32:48.680
<v Speaker 2>record and the idea those people who are now trying

0:32:48.760 --> 0:32:58.200
<v Speaker 2>to convince their gullible, sad audience that Taylor Swift is

0:32:58.280 --> 0:33:04.440
<v Speaker 2>a psyop by the government to help Joe Biden chef's kiss.

0:33:04.640 --> 0:33:12.120
<v Speaker 2>It's just perfect this morning. Yeah. Yeah. The fact that

0:33:12.120 --> 0:33:20.160
<v Speaker 2>that that these these damn snake oil salesman think that

0:33:20.240 --> 0:33:25.280
<v Speaker 2>they can convince their audience that a tail literally as

0:33:25.320 --> 0:33:30.240
<v Speaker 2>old as time, which is super popular beautiful girl falls

0:33:30.280 --> 0:33:34.320
<v Speaker 2>in love with star athlete, had to be orchestrated by

0:33:34.760 --> 0:33:39.120
<v Speaker 2>the protege of George Tennant that the guys, this is

0:33:39.120 --> 0:33:42.600
<v Speaker 2>gonna be a tough one, but somehow we're gonna have

0:33:42.800 --> 0:33:46.880
<v Speaker 2>to thread the needle of the football team that wins

0:33:46.920 --> 0:33:49.360
<v Speaker 2>more than any team with the best player in the

0:33:49.400 --> 0:33:53.400
<v Speaker 2>peak of his powers, with a super popular, charismatic co star.

0:33:54.400 --> 0:33:59.200
<v Speaker 2>How are people gonna believe that they win again and more?

0:33:59.840 --> 0:34:02.800
<v Speaker 2>And then to really put it over the top, something

0:34:02.840 --> 0:34:08.560
<v Speaker 2>we've never heard of before, which is super popular famous

0:34:08.600 --> 0:34:13.279
<v Speaker 2>woman falls in love with super popular athlete. Guys, we

0:34:13.400 --> 0:34:16.480
<v Speaker 2>got over on them when it was Giselle and Tom Brady.

0:34:16.719 --> 0:34:19.600
<v Speaker 2>They were none the wiser. Let's try it again with

0:34:19.719 --> 0:34:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Taylor and Travis, you morons. I mean, it's just and

0:34:23.920 --> 0:34:29.000
<v Speaker 2>so it's perfect. So it's just absolutely perfect. And so

0:34:30.520 --> 0:34:34.480
<v Speaker 2>that's that's what this last thirty minutes is what I

0:34:34.640 --> 0:34:39.520
<v Speaker 2>wanted to hear on my podcast today. Shout out to

0:34:39.560 --> 0:34:43.680
<v Speaker 2>the green Light with Chris and Kyle Long. Shout out

0:34:43.719 --> 0:34:47.279
<v Speaker 2>to First and Pod with Danny Parkins Andrew Philipponi. They

0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:50.239
<v Speaker 2>were the closest to it. Reverse shout out to all

0:34:50.239 --> 0:34:52.680
<v Speaker 2>the other podcasts I listened to, but I don't know.

0:34:52.760 --> 0:34:56.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to name names because I there's some

0:34:56.160 --> 0:34:58.680
<v Speaker 2>I haven't gotten to yet, so I don't know. But

0:34:59.080 --> 0:35:01.600
<v Speaker 2>that's what it was, all right. So I think we're

0:35:01.640 --> 0:35:04.399
<v Speaker 2>gonna have to redo the rundown a bit. I don't

0:35:04.400 --> 0:35:05.880
<v Speaker 2>think we're gonna be able to get to any of

0:35:05.920 --> 0:35:09.200
<v Speaker 2>the NBA stuff, so I could speed run it, just

0:35:09.239 --> 0:35:13.160
<v Speaker 2>real quick. Seventy point games under this environment are bad

0:35:13.160 --> 0:35:18.520
<v Speaker 2>for the league. They are bastardizing the record books. And

0:35:19.560 --> 0:35:22.560
<v Speaker 2>I've never been a guys don't care about defense anymore.

0:35:23.040 --> 0:35:26.360
<v Speaker 2>The last little bit, guys need to buckle down a

0:35:26.400 --> 0:35:26.680
<v Speaker 2>bit more.

0:35:26.719 --> 0:35:27.880
<v Speaker 3>We'll talk about that serious.

0:35:30.680 --> 0:35:33.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there's there's I am. I'm a die hard

0:35:33.719 --> 0:35:37.000
<v Speaker 2>NBA fan and I love it. Embeed not playing in Denver,

0:35:37.440 --> 0:35:40.799
<v Speaker 2>Nobody giving a if you give up seventy It's just

0:35:41.239 --> 0:35:45.800
<v Speaker 2>it is. You have Stephan Lebron who are combined seventy

0:35:45.920 --> 0:35:50.280
<v Speaker 2>five pouring their hearts out in a double overtime game,

0:35:50.680 --> 0:35:55.320
<v Speaker 2>continuing to carry this league on their back while nobody

0:35:55.360 --> 0:35:59.120
<v Speaker 2>else can take the torch. It's awful. I don't like it.

0:35:59.360 --> 0:36:03.560

0:37:38.480 --> 0:37:41.719
<v Speaker 2>back in what's right with Nick Wright. We need to

0:37:41.760 --> 0:37:45.360
<v Speaker 2>talk about the other team in the super Bowl, which

0:37:45.400 --> 0:37:49.719
<v Speaker 2>is something that back in October I kind of floated

0:37:49.719 --> 0:37:53.560
<v Speaker 2>the possibility of we can play that for you right now.

0:37:56.680 --> 0:37:59.959
<v Speaker 2>If people are rooting against me, the way this store

0:38:00.239 --> 0:38:04.840
<v Speaker 2>is supposed to end is with Brock Purdy outdueling Patrick

0:38:04.880 --> 0:38:06.040
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes in the Super Bowl.

0:38:06.200 --> 0:38:08.680
<v Speaker 3>It sounds like a heartache, and talk about never a

0:38:08.880 --> 0:38:11.840
<v Speaker 3>doubt that'd be hilarious. Dude.

0:38:12.719 --> 0:38:16.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so if and that's what we got. And Perdy,

0:38:16.680 --> 0:38:20.520
<v Speaker 2>so let's talk about him for a minute, because Purdy

0:38:20.600 --> 0:38:24.480
<v Speaker 2>in both of these playoff games has played some level

0:38:24.680 --> 0:38:29.440
<v Speaker 2>between awful to very poor early on and then in

0:38:29.520 --> 0:38:32.480
<v Speaker 2>the first playoff game had the one drive at the

0:38:32.600 --> 0:38:36.320
<v Speaker 2>end after playing really poorly the entire game, and in

0:38:36.440 --> 0:38:40.400
<v Speaker 2>this game had the whole last really quarter and a

0:38:40.440 --> 0:38:44.680
<v Speaker 2>half from the moment I caught the ball off Bildor's

0:38:44.719 --> 0:38:47.839
<v Speaker 2>helmet the rest of the way. Perdy was excellent, And

0:38:49.560 --> 0:38:53.440
<v Speaker 2>I was not impressed by the Purdy the way some

0:38:53.520 --> 0:38:55.239
<v Speaker 2>of you wanted me to be when he had the

0:38:55.280 --> 0:38:58.279
<v Speaker 2>perfect passer rating against Tampa, when he put up some

0:38:58.320 --> 0:39:02.480
<v Speaker 2>of these great, seemingly flawless games, I thought it was

0:39:02.600 --> 0:39:05.879
<v Speaker 2>plug and play quarterbacking the likes of which we had

0:39:05.880 --> 0:39:11.319
<v Speaker 2>seen from Jimmy Garoppolo. I was impressed by the composure

0:39:11.440 --> 0:39:16.080
<v Speaker 2>he showed in that conference championship game after playing really

0:39:16.120 --> 0:39:22.719
<v Speaker 2>poorly early. And it wasn't just the composure, but the

0:39:23.000 --> 0:39:30.719
<v Speaker 2>escapability for him to go along with the scrambling is

0:39:30.760 --> 0:39:36.840
<v Speaker 2>a really nice weapon that obviously, excuse me, that obviously

0:39:36.920 --> 0:39:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy Garoppolo never had, And so folks have been waiting

0:39:40.840 --> 0:39:43.160
<v Speaker 2>and waiting and waiting for me to give Party credit.

0:39:43.719 --> 0:39:47.480
<v Speaker 2>He showed me something in that conference championship game that

0:39:48.120 --> 0:39:52.120
<v Speaker 2>was more impressive than a twenty one of twenty five

0:39:52.160 --> 0:39:54.680
<v Speaker 2>for two hundred and eighty yards and four touchdowns earlier

0:39:54.680 --> 0:40:01.319
<v Speaker 2>in the season because he wasn't playing well, and despite that,

0:40:01.920 --> 0:40:04.920
<v Speaker 2>he seemed to keep his confidence. Now he got away

0:40:04.960 --> 0:40:09.520
<v Speaker 2>with some and I think he has gotten He's been

0:40:09.760 --> 0:40:14.400
<v Speaker 2>very lucky in multiple spots thus far this postseason, but

0:40:14.480 --> 0:40:18.880
<v Speaker 2>he's also made some really good athletic plays that I

0:40:18.920 --> 0:40:21.880
<v Speaker 2>will give him full credit for. And so I'm not

0:40:21.920 --> 0:40:25.600
<v Speaker 2>trying to short change Party and the Niners here, but

0:40:26.280 --> 0:40:28.799
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna have the next three shows to talk more

0:40:28.800 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 2>about the Super Bowl matchup and so we're gonna do

0:40:31.640 --> 0:40:34.719
<v Speaker 2>that more than also with the monse Evan technical difficulties

0:40:34.800 --> 0:40:37.280
<v Speaker 2>right now, I kind of wanted to get his thoughts

0:40:37.360 --> 0:40:39.719
<v Speaker 2>on Perty because that's been his guy off and on

0:40:40.160 --> 0:40:42.520
<v Speaker 2>throughout the year. So maybe later in the show we'll

0:40:42.560 --> 0:40:43.759
<v Speaker 2>get to that. If not, we'll do a lot of

0:40:43.800 --> 0:40:47.719
<v Speaker 2>it on Thursday. Now back to the chief side of

0:40:47.760 --> 0:40:53.040
<v Speaker 2>things and the interesting Lamar Jackson conundrum we have right now.

0:40:53.360 --> 0:40:55.520
<v Speaker 2>And by the way, if you have questions or comments

0:40:55.520 --> 0:40:57.680
<v Speaker 2>in the chat we see him, I'll try to get

0:40:57.680 --> 0:40:59.359
<v Speaker 2>to him in the sea block. I'm not gonna read

0:40:59.400 --> 0:41:04.040
<v Speaker 2>them off right now. The but we see him, Gabe

0:41:04.120 --> 0:41:06.680
<v Speaker 2>and our wonderful producers are putting them in the dock,

0:41:06.760 --> 0:41:08.680
<v Speaker 2>and so I'll get to those some of those in

0:41:08.719 --> 0:41:13.719
<v Speaker 2>the sea block. Lamar is in a weird spot because

0:41:14.680 --> 0:41:20.720
<v Speaker 2>there are two numbers that are very, very hard to ignore.

0:41:22.000 --> 0:41:27.160
<v Speaker 2>So Lamar Jackson has in his career played seventy seven

0:41:27.320 --> 0:41:34.040
<v Speaker 2>regular season games. In those seventy seven regular season games,

0:41:34.880 --> 0:41:44.239
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens have never led in two of them. So basically,

0:41:44.360 --> 0:41:48.920
<v Speaker 2>once every two and a half seasons, Lamar has a

0:41:48.960 --> 0:41:54.280
<v Speaker 2>game where the Ravens trail the whole time. It's happened

0:41:54.320 --> 0:42:03.240
<v Speaker 2>twice in seventy seven games. Lamar has played six postseason games.

0:42:04.280 --> 0:42:09.800
<v Speaker 2>That exact scenario. Never having the lead once has happened

0:42:09.920 --> 0:42:15.960
<v Speaker 2>four times. That is so something that in the regular

0:42:16.080 --> 0:42:22.920
<v Speaker 2>season has happened to him. What's two of eighty two

0:42:23.000 --> 0:42:29.439
<v Speaker 2>and a half percent of the time in the postseason

0:42:30.000 --> 0:42:34.640
<v Speaker 2>has happened sixty seven percent of the time. That is

0:42:34.840 --> 0:42:39.799
<v Speaker 2>the first flashing red light. The second one is just

0:42:39.880 --> 0:42:45.640
<v Speaker 2>as damning. Lamar has played in the playoffs four years

0:42:45.640 --> 0:42:48.520
<v Speaker 2>in his career. One year they missed, one year he

0:42:48.560 --> 0:42:54.279
<v Speaker 2>was hurt for the playoffs. Every single one of those years,

0:42:55.160 --> 0:43:00.319
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens season low for points in a game was

0:43:00.320 --> 0:43:05.440
<v Speaker 2>in their playoff game. That's a hard one. For some

0:43:05.520 --> 0:43:09.440
<v Speaker 2>context there, it has happened to Josh Allen once in

0:43:09.520 --> 0:43:15.160
<v Speaker 2>five postseason appearances, Mahomes once in this via Scott casmir.

0:43:15.200 --> 0:43:18.600
<v Speaker 2>By the way, once in six playoff appearances. Happened to

0:43:18.640 --> 0:43:22.800
<v Speaker 2>Peyton Manning four times in sixteen playoff appearances. Happened to

0:43:22.840 --> 0:43:26.359
<v Speaker 2>Brady five times in twenty playoff appearances. For Lamar, it's

0:43:26.360 --> 0:43:33.320
<v Speaker 2>happened every single time, and so they never just get

0:43:34.080 --> 0:43:36.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, beat, start to finish in a game. Except

0:43:36.960 --> 0:43:39.200
<v Speaker 2>for the playoffs, where it happens two out of three times,

0:43:39.600 --> 0:43:44.200
<v Speaker 2>four out of six overall, and every year they have

0:43:44.280 --> 0:43:47.200
<v Speaker 2>scored their season low for the season in the playoffs.

0:43:47.960 --> 0:43:51.279
<v Speaker 2>So as much as the monkey got off Lamar's back

0:43:52.840 --> 0:43:58.799
<v Speaker 2>by that round two great second half, it started to

0:43:58.880 --> 0:44:02.960
<v Speaker 2>climb back on a bit by being stuck on seven

0:44:03.040 --> 0:44:07.480
<v Speaker 2>points for three hours of this game, and by clearly

0:44:07.640 --> 0:44:12.480
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs game plan, right or wrong, was have Lamar

0:44:12.520 --> 0:44:14.760
<v Speaker 2>beat us with his arm. We don't think he will.

0:44:15.080 --> 0:44:18.160
<v Speaker 2>That was their game plan. And I like Lamar and

0:44:18.200 --> 0:44:22.440
<v Speaker 2>I think he was the rightful MVP. But you look

0:44:22.480 --> 0:44:27.799
<v Speaker 2>at Lamar's think about all the heat Dak Prescott got

0:44:28.400 --> 0:44:31.080
<v Speaker 2>for falling to two and five in the playoffs for

0:44:31.160 --> 0:44:37.200
<v Speaker 2>another playoff stinker after a great regular season. It feels

0:44:37.239 --> 0:44:39.759
<v Speaker 2>like Lamar now at two and four in the playoffs,

0:44:40.600 --> 0:44:45.280
<v Speaker 2>with one excellent playoff game to his name, it feels

0:44:45.280 --> 0:44:48.440
<v Speaker 2>like some of that same heat is going to be

0:44:48.600 --> 0:44:51.399
<v Speaker 2>there for Lamar. And I don't know what the right

0:44:51.440 --> 0:44:56.480
<v Speaker 2>answer is. I just know a guy that's as scary

0:44:56.560 --> 0:45:00.960
<v Speaker 2>as any player in the league in the regular season. Now,

0:45:01.440 --> 0:45:04.839
<v Speaker 2>every year he's made the postseason, he has not looked

0:45:04.880 --> 0:45:07.200
<v Speaker 2>the same. I don't think people would be saying this

0:45:07.239 --> 0:45:10.319
<v Speaker 2>if they had lost thirty one to twenty eight, but

0:45:10.400 --> 0:45:14.000
<v Speaker 2>the fact that this game was seventeen to seven the

0:45:14.200 --> 0:45:18.880
<v Speaker 2>whole second half essentially, and the Chiefs did nothing but

0:45:19.080 --> 0:45:22.680
<v Speaker 2>punt in the second half, and it didn't matter because Baltimore,

0:45:23.040 --> 0:45:26.240
<v Speaker 2>and yes, I understand they you had the Zayflowers fumble

0:45:26.239 --> 0:45:28.759
<v Speaker 2>at the one, but you also had the Lamar stripsack

0:45:28.880 --> 0:45:33.919
<v Speaker 2>early and the terrible pass into triple coverage when they

0:45:33.960 --> 0:45:38.799
<v Speaker 2>didn't they weren't in desperation mode yet. Those things are

0:45:38.880 --> 0:45:45.040
<v Speaker 2>gonna cause some eyebrow raising. And then the other big

0:45:45.080 --> 0:45:50.600
<v Speaker 2>story from this weekend is Dan Campbell's forth down decisions,

0:45:50.960 --> 0:45:54.000
<v Speaker 2>and this is just going to be another example of

0:45:54.160 --> 0:46:01.440
<v Speaker 2>I think people missing the actual story. So full disclosure,

0:46:02.040 --> 0:46:08.960
<v Speaker 2>even though I'm I, you know, analytics inclined, and I'm

0:46:09.040 --> 0:46:13.279
<v Speaker 2>aware that part of the Lion's reasoning on going for

0:46:13.360 --> 0:46:15.800
<v Speaker 2>those two fourth downs in the fourth in the second

0:46:15.880 --> 0:46:20.800
<v Speaker 2>half was their kickers not good bad. They've had kicking

0:46:20.840 --> 0:46:26.319
<v Speaker 2>issues all year. Badgely is around fifty percent from more

0:46:26.360 --> 0:46:31.640
<v Speaker 2>than forty five yards. Those were not a lock three

0:46:31.760 --> 0:46:35.360
<v Speaker 2>points and it was not in conflict kicking the field

0:46:35.360 --> 0:46:37.799
<v Speaker 2>goal at the end of the first half is a

0:46:37.840 --> 0:46:43.000
<v Speaker 2>totally different spot because the one scenario where kicking a

0:46:43.040 --> 0:46:47.520
<v Speaker 2>field goal inside the five sometimes makes total sense is

0:46:47.560 --> 0:46:50.840
<v Speaker 2>if it is in the very final seconds of the

0:46:50.880 --> 0:46:54.200
<v Speaker 2>first half. Because one of the reasons that you go

0:46:54.360 --> 0:46:58.239
<v Speaker 2>for touchdowns inside the five is if you miss it,

0:46:58.560 --> 0:47:01.040
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna be backed up. You can either get a

0:47:01.040 --> 0:47:03.960
<v Speaker 2>safety or get the ball back in great field position

0:47:04.000 --> 0:47:07.120
<v Speaker 2>before the half that doesn't matter, So those weren't in conflict.

0:47:07.840 --> 0:47:13.719
<v Speaker 2>With all that said, the one fourth down decision that

0:47:13.960 --> 0:47:18.239
<v Speaker 2>I would have done differently was up fourteen midway through

0:47:18.280 --> 0:47:24.600
<v Speaker 2>the third because I do believe psychologically getting back up

0:47:24.680 --> 0:47:29.719
<v Speaker 2>three scores the difference between fourteen and seventeen is more

0:47:29.800 --> 0:47:33.160
<v Speaker 2>than three points. I guess the point I would make

0:47:33.280 --> 0:47:37.320
<v Speaker 2>is I feel like psychologically there is a much bigger

0:47:37.440 --> 0:47:44.680
<v Speaker 2>gap for the Niners between fourteen and seventeen than there

0:47:44.760 --> 0:47:48.359
<v Speaker 2>is between seventeen and twenty one. I think the edge

0:47:48.400 --> 0:47:51.840
<v Speaker 2>of your down three scores and you have to change

0:47:51.880 --> 0:47:54.359
<v Speaker 2>your game plan, get a little more nervous. All of that,

0:47:54.800 --> 0:47:57.040
<v Speaker 2>I would have kicked that one field goal, but that's

0:47:57.080 --> 0:48:00.239
<v Speaker 2>a judgment call that is not worth that. I mean,

0:48:00.239 --> 0:48:03.440
<v Speaker 2>that is just you make a tough decision. You live

0:48:03.480 --> 0:48:07.400
<v Speaker 2>with the results. The thing Dan Campbell did that he

0:48:07.440 --> 0:48:11.680
<v Speaker 2>has since now admitted was a mistake, but is an

0:48:13.040 --> 0:48:17.359
<v Speaker 2>honestly just as horrendous a coaching error as one can make.

0:48:18.640 --> 0:48:22.239
<v Speaker 2>Was burning that third time out or that first time

0:48:22.280 --> 0:48:25.160
<v Speaker 2>out with a minute left after the goal line run

0:48:25.239 --> 0:48:30.960
<v Speaker 2>on third down, and I don't Greg Olsen did a

0:48:31.000 --> 0:48:34.120
<v Speaker 2>good job talking about what a problem it was, but

0:48:34.400 --> 0:48:38.239
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it was it. People understand what a

0:48:38.360 --> 0:48:44.960
<v Speaker 2>disaster that timeout was. If you have all three timeouts,

0:48:46.520 --> 0:48:48.439
<v Speaker 2>if you get to stop, you are getting the ball back.

0:48:49.400 --> 0:48:54.040
<v Speaker 2>Fifteen seconds after the other team's possession starts. You're getting

0:48:54.320 --> 0:48:59.160
<v Speaker 2>the ball back. Because the NFL has changed the on

0:48:59.360 --> 0:49:02.960
<v Speaker 2>side kick to where it is impossible, you have to

0:49:03.040 --> 0:49:07.800
<v Speaker 2>treat getting in an on side kick game as we lose.

0:49:08.920 --> 0:49:12.080
<v Speaker 2>You have to treat the on side kick like if

0:49:12.120 --> 0:49:14.240
<v Speaker 2>we are kicking an on side kick, we have lost

0:49:14.280 --> 0:49:19.440
<v Speaker 2>the game. The probabilities are so low, which means if

0:49:19.480 --> 0:49:23.279
<v Speaker 2>you have third in goal from the two with a

0:49:23.360 --> 0:49:27.279
<v Speaker 2>minute left in all three timeouts, you are, honest to

0:49:27.320 --> 0:49:33.800
<v Speaker 2>God better off. And this is obvious. Kicking the field

0:49:33.880 --> 0:49:39.759
<v Speaker 2>goal and being down seven and keeping your timeouts, then

0:49:39.880 --> 0:49:44.400
<v Speaker 2>what they did, which is scoring the touchdown, but using

0:49:44.440 --> 0:49:48.520
<v Speaker 2>a timeout. The moment you use a timeout, the game's over.

0:49:49.080 --> 0:49:54.640
<v Speaker 2>You have lost. That was it, and so leaving it

0:49:54.800 --> 0:49:57.360
<v Speaker 2>up for chance that if we don't get this run,

0:49:57.640 --> 0:50:03.200
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna have to call timeout. That was the grievous error.

0:50:03.640 --> 0:50:07.600
<v Speaker 2>That was the mistake You cannot make. It is so

0:50:07.800 --> 0:50:11.000
<v Speaker 2>much worse than the judgment calls on fourth down you

0:50:12.320 --> 0:50:19.120
<v Speaker 2>once you're inside two minutes trailing multiple scores, the timeouts

0:50:19.200 --> 0:50:24.120
<v Speaker 2>are actually more valuable than touchdowns if you're down ten

0:50:24.200 --> 0:50:29.799
<v Speaker 2>or less, the if you're down nine, ten, eleven, the

0:50:29.960 --> 0:50:35.160
<v Speaker 2>timeouts are what you must prioritize. Now, you could argue

0:50:35.320 --> 0:50:41.440
<v Speaker 2>that Baltimore and Detroit, both of them on their last

0:50:41.480 --> 0:50:43.439
<v Speaker 2>would end up being their last drives of the game,

0:50:43.960 --> 0:50:46.480
<v Speaker 2>should have the moment they were in field goal range,

0:50:46.600 --> 0:50:49.320
<v Speaker 2>kicked the field goal to make it a one score

0:50:49.360 --> 0:50:54.239
<v Speaker 2>game and keep their timeouts. But certainly you can't put

0:50:54.239 --> 0:50:57.520
<v Speaker 2>yourself a position to burn one. And everyone gets so

0:50:57.680 --> 0:51:01.400
<v Speaker 2>caught up on the fourth down stuff. They's the fact

0:51:01.560 --> 0:51:07.759
<v Speaker 2>that you getting yourself in an on side kick game

0:51:07.880 --> 0:51:10.719
<v Speaker 2>is losing. You've lost. The game's over if you have

0:51:10.760 --> 0:51:12.799
<v Speaker 2>all three times. If they had so, just for the

0:51:12.840 --> 0:51:17.320
<v Speaker 2>sake of argument, let's say they threw incomplete on third

0:51:17.400 --> 0:51:20.480
<v Speaker 2>down and then kick the field goal on fourth, or

0:51:20.560 --> 0:51:22.560
<v Speaker 2>went for it and got it on fourth whatever. You're

0:51:22.560 --> 0:51:25.760
<v Speaker 2>down three or seven kicking off with one minute left.

0:51:26.160 --> 0:51:28.640
<v Speaker 2>If you have all three timeouts and you get the stop,

0:51:29.160 --> 0:51:32.200
<v Speaker 2>you're getting the ball back with forty seconds left, you

0:51:32.320 --> 0:51:37.160
<v Speaker 2>have a chance. Instead you use a timeout. You, of

0:51:37.160 --> 0:51:40.040
<v Speaker 2>course don't get the on side kick game over. All right,

0:51:40.120 --> 0:51:43.160
<v Speaker 2>we'll answer your questions, take quick break, answer your questions,

0:51:43.200 --> 0:51:51.360
<v Speaker 2>and read your comments. Next we'll try. All right, welcome

0:51:51.400 --> 0:51:53.719
<v Speaker 2>back in What's right with Nick? Right? Uh, we'll get

0:51:53.719 --> 0:51:57.320
<v Speaker 2>to your listener questions right now. Big Seafood asked anyone

0:51:57.440 --> 0:51:59.600
<v Speaker 2>hungry for a new single? I think this is our

0:51:59.640 --> 0:52:03.160
<v Speaker 2>producer trolling me a bit. Let me see what it says. Oh,

0:52:03.200 --> 0:52:05.440
<v Speaker 2>it's Taylor's new single. Cake it off by it now

0:52:05.440 --> 0:52:08.120
<v Speaker 2>at Big Seafood. That's well done. That's well done with

0:52:08.400 --> 0:52:12.359
<v Speaker 2>you know, no planning with that was done on the fly. Uh.

0:52:12.920 --> 0:52:16.320
<v Speaker 2>Echo Ramos asks, how does it feel having your fifty

0:52:16.320 --> 0:52:19.560
<v Speaker 2>to one Super Bowl bet last year actually come to

0:52:19.600 --> 0:52:24.000
<v Speaker 2>fruition this year? Ah? I'm over it from last year

0:52:24.480 --> 0:52:26.760
<v Speaker 2>and last year's Super Bowl couldn't have gone any better.

0:52:27.040 --> 0:52:29.600
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I mean, I've thought about it that I

0:52:29.719 --> 0:52:32.920
<v Speaker 2>was Niners chiefs last year and now it ends up

0:52:32.920 --> 0:52:36.799
<v Speaker 2>being Niners chiefs this year. D R says, all this

0:52:36.880 --> 0:52:40.040
<v Speaker 2>outside noise surrounding the Chiefs. Guess who has no outside noise?

0:52:40.120 --> 0:52:47.640
<v Speaker 2>The Niners? Yeah not yet. Uh. Here's the thing. The

0:52:47.640 --> 0:52:50.080
<v Speaker 2>the media is not going to be able to help themselves,

0:52:50.880 --> 0:52:53.680
<v Speaker 2>and they're gonna really really try to turn Brock Purdy

0:52:53.760 --> 0:52:58.480
<v Speaker 2>into a combination of Joe Montana uh and Tom Brady.

0:52:59.080 --> 0:53:01.680
<v Speaker 2>And I'm gonna be really interested in how he handles it.

0:53:01.680 --> 0:53:03.680
<v Speaker 2>For the Super Bowl. We know how Mahomes gonna handle it.

0:53:05.000 --> 0:53:09.040
<v Speaker 2>Grayson Schultzman says, will Mahomes have a Jordan Like not

0:53:09.200 --> 0:53:12.239
<v Speaker 2>letting anyone eat effect on the great quarterbacks in the AFC?

0:53:12.480 --> 0:53:15.520
<v Speaker 2>All right, reminder, then no one ate on Jordan's watch

0:53:15.560 --> 0:53:19.040
<v Speaker 2>thing is a myth unless no one just means Charles Barkley,

0:53:19.040 --> 0:53:23.160
<v Speaker 2>Patrick Ewing and Reggie Miller. Because the following people all

0:53:23.239 --> 0:53:29.560
<v Speaker 2>won titles during Jordan's career. Kareem Magic, Larry Isaiah, Akeem,

0:53:30.160 --> 0:53:35.719
<v Speaker 2>Duncan Robinson, Shaq Kobe, all the great players eight on

0:53:35.920 --> 0:53:40.080
<v Speaker 2>Jordan's watch except for of course, Ewing Berkley and Reggie

0:53:40.560 --> 0:53:43.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh and Carmelone. I shouldn't sorry, my bad Carmelon John

0:53:43.160 --> 0:53:47.400
<v Speaker 2>Stockton obviously are on that list. My apologies. Uh I

0:53:47.880 --> 0:53:51.960
<v Speaker 2>here's what I think, Druff's If you're in the AFC,

0:53:52.040 --> 0:53:55.120
<v Speaker 2>you've got to be sick that they went seamlessly from

0:53:55.120 --> 0:53:58.480
<v Speaker 2>the Patriots to the Chiefs. The Patriots made the AFC

0:53:58.560 --> 0:54:01.480
<v Speaker 2>title game every single year from twenty eleven to twenty eighteen,

0:54:01.560 --> 0:54:04.719
<v Speaker 2>and in that timeframe they made five Super Bowls. The

0:54:04.840 --> 0:54:09.040
<v Speaker 2>other three Super Bowls were played in by the Denver

0:54:09.120 --> 0:54:12.600
<v Speaker 2>Broncos and Peyton, and the Baltimore Ravens and Joe Flacco

0:54:12.640 --> 0:54:15.880
<v Speaker 2>from the AFC side of things. In twenty eighteen, the

0:54:16.000 --> 0:54:19.479
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs and Patriots played each other in the conference championship game.

0:54:19.719 --> 0:54:23.319
<v Speaker 2>The Chiefs then took the baton if you will. Uh.

0:54:23.440 --> 0:54:26.439
<v Speaker 2>They've now been in every conference championship game since then

0:54:26.760 --> 0:54:29.360
<v Speaker 2>and been in every Super Bowl but won so. In

0:54:29.400 --> 0:54:34.200
<v Speaker 2>the last thirteen years in the AFC, Brady made five

0:54:34.239 --> 0:54:38.440
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowls, Mahomes has made four, Peyton made two, and

0:54:38.480 --> 0:54:42.399
<v Speaker 2>Flacco and Burrow both made one. Robert Remsen says, Nick,

0:54:42.440 --> 0:54:44.520
<v Speaker 2>did you really turn up the TV while Bomani was

0:54:44.520 --> 0:54:47.040
<v Speaker 2>telling a story to someone else. Yes, and I'd do

0:54:47.120 --> 0:54:51.120
<v Speaker 2>it again. But I told Bamani before he came over.

0:54:51.160 --> 0:54:53.640
<v Speaker 2>Bamani jones with me for the game. He brought a

0:54:53.640 --> 0:54:55.400
<v Speaker 2>buddy of his and my buddy Josh was at the

0:54:55.400 --> 0:54:57.799
<v Speaker 2>game was with us as well, and I told him

0:54:57.800 --> 0:55:00.759
<v Speaker 2>before the game, there's only conver station asked to be

0:55:00.760 --> 0:55:05.280
<v Speaker 2>about the game. And at one point during the AFC

0:55:05.360 --> 0:55:08.560
<v Speaker 2>title game, Bamani was talking about something that was not

0:55:08.680 --> 0:55:12.879
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs Ravens game, and I did, like what quarterbacks

0:55:12.880 --> 0:55:15.960
<v Speaker 2>do to crowds. I did that because I was crouching

0:55:15.960 --> 0:55:17.880
<v Speaker 2>in front of the TV. They didn't listen to me,

0:55:17.880 --> 0:55:20.480
<v Speaker 2>so I turned the TV up. I have no apologies.

0:55:20.960 --> 0:55:23.040
<v Speaker 2>This is a very important moment and I didn't want

0:55:23.040 --> 0:55:26.799
<v Speaker 2>to be distracted. And I mean that was I don't

0:55:26.800 --> 0:55:29.400
<v Speaker 2>even think Bamani was offended. At one point, Bamani went

0:55:29.440 --> 0:55:31.680
<v Speaker 2>downstairs and hung out with Deanna, who he likes more

0:55:31.719 --> 0:55:33.640
<v Speaker 2>than me. Anyways, seemed to have a good time. Dan

0:55:33.719 --> 0:55:35.759
<v Speaker 2>yell and Deanna made nachos. Everyone at a great time.

0:55:35.800 --> 0:55:39.480
<v Speaker 2>But we're not talking about things that aren't football during

0:55:39.520 --> 0:55:42.480
<v Speaker 2>playoff games, certainly during conference Championship Games. What are we

0:55:42.480 --> 0:55:46.120
<v Speaker 2>talking about? We're civilized people, all right. Apologies for the

0:55:46.160 --> 0:55:48.799
<v Speaker 2>technical errors. We'll try to get him squared away. Great

0:55:48.840 --> 0:55:50.799
<v Speaker 2>job demands even though it was only half a show.

0:55:51.120 --> 0:55:53.719
<v Speaker 2>We will see you guys today, Big day. I get
