00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: won't be here next Friday. But we got a show today.

6
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,240

10
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: loss of the Houston Texas. It's it's really it's gone

11
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: on too long as it is. We can't whine anymore

12
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 1: about it and haven't mean anything at all. It was

13
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: a terrible loss. It was awful. Get it out of

14
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: your system today, see because today, by my decree, today

15
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: is and my decrease are serious. Today is the last

16
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: day week and whine about losing to the youth to

17
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: Texans in the wildcard round. It's two weeks ago now,

18
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: two weeks tomorrow will be two weeks since that loss.

19
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:11,199
Speaker 1: Expressing regret doesn't necessarily mean whining. Although we have been Yeah,

20
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 1: it's been hard to let go of for everybody. Yes, Oh,

21
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: it's not just you that I'm talking to. Oh, I know,

22
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: not just me or you. It's listeners, no more calling.

23
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: I'm saying, you know, I wish they would have another

24
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: AFC championship. Should be in Buffalo this week, now you know. Okay,

25
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: that's you know, let's just pump the brake. I get you,

26
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: all right, It's time to no more whining, time to

27
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: move on from the missed opportunity that was this post.

28
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 1: It was. You can talk about the game. I'm not

29
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: saying that, you can reference plays from the game. You

30
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: can talk about what you might have done differently, what

31
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: you wish you'd done differently, But just not whining, just

32
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 1: not saying, oh, if they would have done this, then

33
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: they would have won, and then they would have gone.

34
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: We know that, we feel that. I know what you mean.

35
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: I feel the same way. But we've been talking about

36
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: it for two weeks. It's driving me crazy. We have

37
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: fixated on that loss now for two straight weeks. And

38
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: when we come back on Way Day, we're off Monday

39
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: and Tuesday. Monday and Tuesday, that's right, missus rave. We

40
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: are not here next Monday and Tuesday. Oh my god.

41
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: When we come back on Wednesday. No more whining about

42
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: that game. Deal is it a deal? That's fine, Okay,

43
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: that's all. That's all I wanted to say today to

44
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: get it started. All Right, that's fine, Okay, I'm ready

45
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: for it. I'm ready. Hey, the weekend's coming again, the

46
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: championship weekend. Then we'll start in on the on the

47
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: Super Bowl wind up and yeah, and there we go

48
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: and we got out. You know, there's lots of stuff

49
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: going on. So we're talking on stuff, the baseball stuff

50
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: and the you know, the championship games and the history

51
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: of it, and you know, you get to the hundredth

52
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: year of the league. There's a ton of cool stuff

53
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: that's being floated around about all time this and all

54
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: time that. There's a couple of things that are happening

55
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: in this in this postseason that are rare, you know,

56
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: particularly because of the Titans and what Derreck Henry is

57
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: doing and what by proxy Ryan Tannehill is not doing.

58
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: You know, so a lot of that stuff going on

59
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: about statistics and anomalies and and U who's playing like,

60
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,399
Speaker 1: you know, they haven't thrown for this many yards, they've

61
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: run for the so many yard. Derrick Henry's playing really well,

62
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 1: we haven't seen anybody like him since maybe the run

63
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: that Terrell Davis put together with the Denver Broncos when

64
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: they won it with John Elway in the late nineties.

65
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: So a lot of cool stuff going on in football.

66
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: And actually, Maddie's coming in. Maddi Glab's coming in. She's

67
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: got a test she'd got did you know or guess

68
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 1: that what is it called? What we're gonna call this

69
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: thing with Maddie coming up? Guess that stat? Guess that's stat.

70
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: Guess that's stat. Yeah, it's coming up all right. By

71
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: the way, the NFL, this is among the things going on.

72
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 1: This is totally off topic, but I think we need

73
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: to do this show. Next week. The NFL is going

74
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: to announce the eighth greatest moments in the one hundred

75
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: years of NFL history, and it's a fan vote going on.

76
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: I do think at some point next week probably we

77
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: should do the great moments in Bill's history, Like, let

78
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: people vote what are the best moment in Bill's history? Right?

79
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: We can do that as a Twitter poll next week,

80
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: don't you agree. I mean, it's a Bill's sixty eighth anniversary.

81
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: The NFL is one other anniversary the league's doing it,

82
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: let's make it a Bill's thing, too. Greatest moment in

83
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: Bill's history, not today, I don't know, some day next year. Notice, Yeah, sure,

84
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: all mine or kind of Yeah, Well, I don't know.

85
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,839
Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd know enough history, Well, you'd

86
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: refer to what you know. Yeah, and how many we're

87
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: gonna do, like four or five or ten or just

88
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: to open it up. I don't know. We'll think through that.

89
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: I do think because the league's doing it, they've got

90
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: eight gradest moments. They advancing to a third round of

91
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 1: a fan boat, they're gonna come up with one. Maybe

92
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: we should boil it down to one for the Bills.

93
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: The greatest moment in the sixty years of the Buffalo Bills. Yeah,

94
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: there's a sponsorship opportunity. There's a call if you want

95
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: to sponsor. I'm all about it. We'll get the we'll

96
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: get the crew out back. They put it together and

97
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: got all that video. Yeah, yeah, let's use video, right,

98
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: and and anything's open. Nineteen sixties teams, obviously m O. J.

99
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 1: Simpson's years, obviously great moments in franchise history. The nineteen

100
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: eighty team when the AFC East went to the playoffs,

101
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: breaking the drought, a moment in that locker round when

102
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: all the Bills Nation did it, went through it together

103
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: at the same moment it was recorded. Awesome, awesome, all

104
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: the scenes of them around the country, of Bill's bars

105
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 1: and the concourse in Miami and the locker room of

106
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 1: the team. That's pretty cool. Yeah, And I've I've said

107
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: that for me because not for nothing, but because of

108
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: the way it was recorded and what it meant and

109
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: the fact that it really galvanized something special about Buffalo.

110
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: Um with what happened with rand Andy Dalton and his

111
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 1: charitable foundation, uh in the in the weeks that followed

112
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: that what it meant to Buffalo And I think and

113
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: it's one of the things I've always said, or lately

114
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: if we've noticed, and that I've kind of pointed out

115
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: about what Bills fans and how they're unique. And I

116
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 1: think one of the things is that Bills fans, wherever

117
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: they are out and about, they seem to have an

118
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: affection for each other as well as the team. You know,

119
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 1: so you see t you know, cowboy fans and these

120
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 1: guys and all that, but Bills fans kind of seem

121
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 1: um together themselves. You know, like you know, they reach

122
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: you know, reach out to each other and they sing

123
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: that they chant that that tune in an airport and

124
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: they get answered, you know, by by Bills fans. So

125
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: they seem to be more of a of a crew,

126
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: of a fan base that's in it together. And I

127
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: think that moment in that Miami when they broke the

128
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: drought and they backed into the playoffs sideways right and

129
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: got in and what it meant to the fan base

130
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: and how you saw the team reacting all that, I

131
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 1: thought that was one of the great moments ever. I

132
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: just because so many people in the fan base and

133
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,239
Speaker 1: the organization, they all experienced it right at the exact

134
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: same moment. That's pretty special. Yeah, that would be one.

135
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: Can offer another one. We're not going to talk about

136
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 1: this today. Great moments in franchise history. That's one of them.

137
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 1: Bills and the drought. You know what else is one?

138
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: I think the day after Super Bowl twenty five, Scott

139
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 1: Norwood called to the podium in front of the City Hall.

140
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 1: You know, Scotty, Scotty, you know, Norwood's up there, tears

141
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: in his eyes. They loved him. It was unbelievable. It

142
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: was an unbelievable moment. That's another thing that says something

143
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 1: about our fan base. Right when they were like, you know,

144
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: we think about a kicker misses a kick and he's

145
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: you know, they're hanging him in effigy and you know Philly,

146
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: but in Buffalo they're you know, kind of giving him

147
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: a hug. Yeah, yes, sorry, we'll do that. We'll do

148
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: that next week. Start thinking about because we want to

149
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: do it right. Regular listeners think about that and get back.

150
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: I know some people kind of chime in once in

151
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: a while, but if you're listening and you would do

152
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: it all the time, start thinking about it. We'll put

153
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: it up there. Greatest moment in Bill's history. They're doing

154
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: it league wide, why not do it for the Bills.

155
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: All right, here's something we should talk about the baseball

156
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: the Houston Astros. I got an early morning text from

157
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: my partner here about the Houston Astros. The Astro's illegal

158
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: use of technology, further speculation that the team's players went

159
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: a step further and maybe we're concealed devices buzzers on

160
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: their body, taped to the body that notified them of

161
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: certain pitches. Major League Baseball responded, saying today it explored

162
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: wearable devices. During the investigations, the Astros found no evidence

163
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: to substantiate that. Major League officials said the inquiry into

164
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: warrible devices included the playoffs this past year. The thing's

165
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: getting bigger, Steve, A couple of things. You and I

166
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: were arguing about it in the last hour, so I

167
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 1: know it's serious. I think it is serious. I think

168
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: it's I don't think we've I think they've just scratched

169
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: the tip of the iceberg. Gears to how many teams

170
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: were involved. The Astros got caught in twenty seventeen, apparently

171
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: they stopped it in twenty eighteen, and no evidence that

172
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: they use it in winning the World Series. This passphall,

173
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: but it's the fact. Here's I saw a proposal today.

174
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: Somebody I think it was ESPN dot Com had a

175
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,319
Speaker 1: list of various baseball writers. One of them and I

176
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: think it was Verducci. Is it Tom Verducci? Yeah, Frank

177
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: was the coach here. His brother Tom Berducci suggested, if

178
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: you eliminate the use of the technology in game, live game,

179
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: you could solve this problem. Only this problem. Now, there

180
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 1: are other problems coming down the pike. Look at people

181
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: have been stealing signs for years. But now the problem

182
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: with this Astros thing is that they used the tech analogy,

183
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: they use the replay. They put a monitor outside the

184
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: clubhouse in the minute made park so that they could

185
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: access it and have somebody bag. It's amazing to me.

186
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: They use technology and then they wanted to here's the

187
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 1: alert system, bang bang bang with a bat and a

188
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:18,599
Speaker 1: garbage can whatever. I mean, it's it's crazy. But the

189
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: proposal from Verducci is you eliminate the use of technology

190
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: in game so that, no, you don't get replays in game.

191
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: Batters cannot go back to the dugout or wherever, or

192
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: the clubhouse and watch their lasted bat and see what

193
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: they did wrong and what pitches were being thrown to them.

194
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 1: You have to wait until after the game. I think

195
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: that might put an end to this, I really do.

196
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 1: That doesn't solve your concerns. Your concerns deal more with

197
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: what do you do with the Astros. I would submit

198
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: they punished the Astros, they stand ready to punish. Maybe

199
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: you know Korda with the Red Sox and Beltrain of

200
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: the Mets and anybody else involved with them. I don't

201
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: think the investigation is over but I don't know that

202
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: there's much more to be done with the people who've

203
00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: been caught so far. Go ahead, i' they're stealing signs.

204
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 1: If it's illegal, it's illegal. It's all about it's to me,

205
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: it's not about the tech. And if it's written, or

206
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: if it's unwritten, it's written. If it's written, all right,

207
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: there you go. Um. And it's not about technology. It

208
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: is not about the technology they used. It's not about

209
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 1: the punishment they use that has been given, although a

210
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: little bit of it is. And my point is for me,

211
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: the attitude that they will absolutely do anything they can

212
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 1: to cheat. In fact, they will cheat and go exactly

213
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: against a black and white rule written in the rule book.

214
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: The attitude is, as long as we think we can

215
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 1: get away with it, we are going to do it.

216
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: That attitude is what you're combating here, and you, in

217
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 1: my opinion, you've got to make the punishment so severe

218
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: that they know that it's going to hurt them and

219
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: hurt bad And in fact, you have to have guys

220
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,839
Speaker 1: willing if that happens. You've got to have guys want

221
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 1: to say to say no in the same team, say

222
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: you ain't doing that because you're not gonna bring me

223
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: down with you. You've got to make that attitude unacceptable

224
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: and dangerous for their careers, for their teams, for the owners,

225
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 1: for the general managers, for the coaches, and obviously the players.

226
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: So I whatever punishment you dole out, that should be

227
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: the end result that you're looking for to crush the

228
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: attitude that they don't enforce it well enough, we can

229
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: get away with it. Even if we get caught. It's

230
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: not you know, I'm still gonna be able to play,

231
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: and they're gonna you know, the general manager and coach

232
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: are gone, and you know, the draft picks the future

233
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: for the team. That's great. There's gonna be two less

234
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: guys competing with me for my job. Kind of thing

235
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: that the punishment has to be. Did you see what

236
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: happened to the Astros and the Red Sox. Don't mess

237
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: with it. That's my opinion. I guess my question would

238
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 1: be you don't, well, I'm asking yeah, I'm asking a question.

239
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: You don't think a suspension of one year, suspension of

240
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: the manager and by the way, the manager is suspended

241
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: because he didn't do anything to stop it. It was

242
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 1: kind of a team wide thing and they asked it

243
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: was in. The manager knew about it, apparently didn't like it,

244
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: and disabled the monitor at least once during the twenty

245
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: seventeen season, but didn't put an end to it. And

246
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: that's why he's been suspended general manager of the same thing.

247
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: But a one year suspension for them and subsequent dismissal

248
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 1: by their team, loss of two first and second round

249
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: draft picks, and a five million dollar fine. That's not enough,

250
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,079
Speaker 1: not serious enough. Let me put it this way. I

251
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: don't think that's even in the ballpark. What are you

252
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: gonna do. Anybody in that locker room or in that

253
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: clubhouse or in that organization who knew about it should

254
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: be done forever, forever, absolutely, and why not, you thinks.

255
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 1: And here's the thing you can say, Well, listen, it's

256
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: not about them. Who can about them? Because as soon

257
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: as they're gone, they're gonna they're gonna retire, They're gonna

258
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: play the cruiser, the game is gonna go on. You've

259
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: got to set a standard. They got to be done.

260
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: There'll be more people who play baseball, They're gonna be

261
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 1: more players, but people who watch it, guys who play it,

262
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: guys who are in the league that league's gonna roll

263
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: on whether these guys are there or not. Who care?

264
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: Believe me, I don't care about those guys, and the

265
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: league shouldn't either. The league is about the game those

266
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: guys are. Let me just put it this way and

267
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: be blunt. They're disposable. They're disposable. You are talking about

268
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: a game that has been existed for over one hundred

269
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 1: and twenty years in our country, and at times it's

270
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: been a giant and these guys are gonna really basically

271
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: defecate on it. Everybody in that as anybody who could

272
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: who yes, absolutely, why wouldn't you? Because there are indications

273
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: that some players didn't like it, didn't think it was fair,

274
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: didn't want to involve themselves in it. Well that's too bad, sorry,

275
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 1: because you know what everybody says that now it's too late.

276
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: Now you can say, well, it didn't really even help

277
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: us that much. Now it's fine to say that it

278
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 1: didn't even work that much all the time, it was

279
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: a sporadic our manager turned it off once in a while.

280
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: You can say anything you want. Now nobody cares. Now

281
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: it's irrelevant. Now you should have said it then, but

282
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: you didn't. You're done. Thanks, for stopping by, because we're

283
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: gonna keep playing baseball, and we're gonna do it the

284
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: right way. By the way, players are going to continue

285
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 1: to steal signs, are gonna be on second base stealing signs,

286
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: relaying the signs to their teammates because they see it

287
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: with their own eyes. I just think it's a degree

288
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: of it's gone too far with the use of the replay,

289
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: and I think it's gone too far, and that's what

290
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: the league is trying to shut down. And I think

291
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: your solution, I guess, goes a little bit too a

292
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: lot too far. Yeah, what do we lose by going

293
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: too far? What do we lose? What you lose? Those

294
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: players have a right to earn a living in baseball.

295
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: You can't just say you can't play because your teammate

296
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: use that illegal video system. How we know that that's

297
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: not all that there is involved, the two or three

298
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: players all that involved. I don't think it is. But

299
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: you can't just everybody's not guilty because their teammate was

300
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: doing it. Right, if they knew about it, they are

301
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: the honor system. Then what you're suggesting, No, well, yeah

302
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 1: you are. If they knew about it, didn't do anything

303
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: about it. They should be uh dismissed, banned for life? Yeah, well,

304
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: I think that's too much. They knew they were cheating

305
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: and doing and winning games because they were quiet, because

306
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: they were winning games because of it. I don't know.

307
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: And what are you You're not risking it. The league

308
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: is not risking anything here. They're doing the right thing.

309
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: Ban those guys can get them out and keep them out.

310
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: I think it's too much. Who cares? I care? I mean,

311
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: why do you think I never pays attention to baseball? Two?

312
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: You you're like exchange Christmas cards? What that guy or

313
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: what they waive that right? When they cheated and despict?

314
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: And what if they change the integrity the whole industry?

315
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: What if they were not one of the cheaters, Well,

316
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: then don't do it. Then? Oh I thought you said

317
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: the whole team anybody who knew about it should be

318
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: they were if they knew they were cheating, that's the

319
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 1: whole point. If they knew they were cheating, that's how

320
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 1: the whole thing works. There's more to be discovered about

321
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: this because they were benefiting. There's more to be discovered

322
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: about this. By the way, the extent of their benefit

323
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: is not yet known either, and I don't believe they

324
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: won a World Series because of that, but I know

325
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: you disagree about that as well. Neither team, both the

326
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: consecutive two team, the two World Series winners who did

327
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: it and won the World Series did not do it

328
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: because they were doing something that was compatently illegal and

329
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 1: what what what two World Series Red Sox there's no

330
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: evidence yet they may have, but there's no evidence they have.

331
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: How do they find that out? How do they find

332
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: because one of the guys went, well, okay, the coach

333
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: who was involved with the Astros was on the Red

334
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: Sox the next year, and then they started doing it. Well,

335
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't I haven't seen any evidence

336
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 1: of Okay, maybe you saw on Twitter. Maybe not. Maybe

337
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: none of this is true. Maybe it's all true. Maybe

338
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,880
Speaker 1: maybe I'll two was as an altobe. Who's the guy

339
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: that was just fired from the Mets. Yeah, maybe Carlos

340
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,880
Speaker 1: Beltran didn't keep his shirt on because he had a

341
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: vibrating buzzer that was also part of the technology. Again,

342
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: the people who've done stuff jacked out an off speed

343
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 1: pitch out of the out of the field for win

344
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 1: to win the game. The people who have studied this

345
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: say there's no evidence of a buzzer. But that's okay.

346
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: You can believe what you believe because you read it

347
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: on Twitter. It must be true. You say, some people

348
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: and I don't say some people. I say major League

349
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: Baseball had investigations on this since twenty seventeen. Well, no

350
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: evidence of buzzers, legal buzz Major League Baseball can say

351
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 1: whatever they want wof the investigorn. You can say whatever

352
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: you want. Yeah, I mean they can say whatever they want.

353
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 1: I quite frankly don't believe it. Okay, you don't have

354
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 1: to believe it, right, And I do think this is

355
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: a joke of of a joke, of a reprisal from

356
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: the league over something that strikes at the very heart

357
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:05,360
Speaker 1: of the game. It's a fair place. It's even outside baseball.

358
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it's you know, is where we go around

359
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: and around about the Patriots and all that stuff. I mean,

360
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 1: it strikes at the heart of the integrity of the game.

361
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 1: And I get it. And I've said this to the

362
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: stakes are high. These guys are talking. You're talking about

363
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 1: major major dollars, millions and millions of dollars collectively on

364
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 1: that roster. Who are all benefiting by guys who were

365
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: blatantly and brazenly cheating. So I don't know, I don't know.

366
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna wait back in the door. Who

367
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 1: the cheaters, We'll see if they do. Maybe they don't.

368
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 1: They certainly have. They haven't banned them. They've been suspended

369
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: for a year to the manager. Okay, fine, They'm sure

370
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: that when they come back they won't have that same attitude. Right.

371
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: Part of the problem here is we're in the middle

372
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: of the process of them finding out what went on,

373
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: and there's more revelations to come out and what the

374
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: we don't really know what the punishment should be. And

375
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: also another part of the problem here as we live

376
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 1: in a Twitter world. So yeah, every conspirac world, every

377
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 1: outlandish theory and opinion has a voice, and you know

378
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: you got and you're as you've scrolled down, you see it,

379
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: and you see them all. You see them all, and

380
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,640
Speaker 1: some of them just are not credible or worthy of relaying.

381
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 1: Uh so yeah, that but I'm telling you, if I

382
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 1: guess that's what you should do. We should all agree

383
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: at some point in the end, what happened, who knew,

384
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: how it helped? If we can decipher that because certainly

385
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: the guys who cheater a gonna say I didn't even

386
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: help us. It was it was stupid even try. And

387
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 1: the guys who lost the World Series of those teams

388
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 1: are saying that's the absolute only reason right then we

389
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 1: lost the World Did they say that, that's the that's

390
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 1: the that's the logical argument. They didn't say that. Do

391
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 1: you think they think that's the only reason they lost?

392
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 1: I bet they don't. Well, you look back and you

393
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: see the guy who is right in the middle of everything,

394
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: Jack and the winning home run. Do you think the

395
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: Dodgers think that's why we lost the twenty seventeen series,

396
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: that's the only reason, that's the main reason. I wonder

397
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 1: if they do it. I don't know. Well, I don't know.

398
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: I haven't seen any indication that they do. All right,

399
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 1: they don't have. Then are we disagreeing or I don't know.

400
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: I agree with you. It's serious. It does strike at

401
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,520
Speaker 1: the heart of the game. I don't know enough to say,

402
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 1: wipe that team out. Those guys are all done, And

403
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 1: I certainly think that's kind of hitting it too hardly.

404
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: It's too broad. Wait and see what happens here, Wait

405
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,239
Speaker 1: and see what comes out before you make a You

406
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: can't just eliminate the Houston Astros because two years ago

407
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 1: some players were using and again people have been stealing

408
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,159
Speaker 1: signs for years. They haven't done this technology because this

409
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: technology is kind of new. They've taken the technology too far,

410
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: you know, moving a monitor right outside the clubhouse. No,

411
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 1: that's not cool. And I'm telling you if you shut

412
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: as I said, as Verducci said, if you shut down

413
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,120
Speaker 1: access to that sort of replay. By the way, here's

414
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: another issue where replay causes more problems than itself. If

415
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: you shut down access to that kind of video in game,

416
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 1: you'd probably go along way towards solving the problem. I

417
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 1: think that's crazy talk. What what's crazy? Well, I mean

418
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: say no more use of replay during the game. You can't, sorry, manager,

419
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: you can't use it to see if you should challenge

420
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: a call. Sorry, better, you can't go back in the

421
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: dug out and see whether it was a ball or

422
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: strike you swung at. No, you gotta wait till after

423
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: the game. It's about it's about the attitude of want

424
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 1: to cheat. You think that it was already illegal and

425
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 1: they didn't care. They just did it anyway. You think saying,

426
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: now you can't do this and this is illegal. They're

427
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 1: gonna say, oh, yeah, okay, since you made that illegal,

428
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: we're not gonna try it anymore. They'll try something else. Absolutely,

429
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: they might try the same thing. Why would they Why

430
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: would they not try the same thing if they can

431
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: get away with it. They can't get away with it

432
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: that I'm saying, you eliminate the use of replay in game,

433
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 1: and then that solves a lot of the problem. What

434
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 1: if they Okay, you've eliminated replayed during game. Now they

435
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 1: still do it. Now, what are you gonna do if

436
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 1: they get away with it? I don't know. There'll be

437
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: some punishment there. You're asking me, what if they set

438
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 1: up a new rule and they violate that rule. I

439
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 1: don't know. What are you gonna don crush him? Okay, well,

440
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 1: let's wait till then to crush him. Nor you mean,

441
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: so you're gonna keep changing the rule, keep changing hell,

442
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: keep changing the rule till it finally everything's legal and

443
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: then you won't have a reason to crush them. But

444
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 1: you keep changing the rules to make it. It's like, okay,

445
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,400
Speaker 1: that's fine, we're gonna change the rule. Now, you can't

446
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: do that oh you're doing it still. Anyway, we're gonna

447
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,439
Speaker 1: change the rule so you don't do that. And that's

448
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: not what I said at all. That's exactly what you say. No,

449
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: it does not get rid of replay until they do

450
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: it again. That's not exa what I said. It's not

451
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: at all what I said. I explain it to me again.

452
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: Go ahead, we gotta move on, because now the argument

453
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: is I want to hear what they change the rule

454
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 1: and say no more use of replay in game. Okay,

455
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: they'll find something else, maybe down the road, the Astros

456
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,239
Speaker 1: or somebody else will find another way. The rules. By

457
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: the way, this is already said you can't take video

458
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 1: and steal signs, and they say made that illegal, So

459
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,239
Speaker 1: why it's making something else illegal? Gonna change because now

460
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 1: they was shut down video, shut down video. You can't

461
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: use any video at all during the game. It would

462
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 1: eliminate video was illegal to begin with. No, it was

463
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 1: not teams. No, it was nice had their own camera

464
00:22:55,520 --> 00:23:00,239
Speaker 1: in center field specifically to for the catcher's signals with

465
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:04,880
Speaker 1: a line directly to that's all illegal. Here's what's illegal. Now,

466
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: that's illegal. Now, what is not illegal is using video

467
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: for a batter to go back on the clubhouse and say,

468
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: what did he throw me on that two one count?

469
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 1: Was that a fastball or a curveball? Should I have

470
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: dipped my shoulder more and hit the ball to right

471
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: field instead of trying to pull up the left field.

472
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 1: Guys do that during the game all the time. That's

473
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: not illegal. I'm saying, cut that out. No more use

474
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: of replay affect this at all because you cut out

475
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,360
Speaker 1: the use. You cut out the use of replay during

476
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: the game, and nobody has access to any of that video,

477
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 1: including the center field one. What the signals going down?

478
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 1: It's not that hard to think of. You don't use

479
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: replay at all in game? Why is that so hard

480
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 1: to comprehend. It's already illegally used the video for the

481
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 1: reason they used it so they can put their own

482
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: camera out there again, they just hide it. That's that's

483
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,199
Speaker 1: the whole point. They got a spaceship up. No, you

484
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: miss it. There was already the camera that they used

485
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: for replay. This camera was different. It was already an

486
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: extra camera. You know that from what Twitter? Is that

487
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: the ten second thing you found out? The whole point

488
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 1: of the whole thing Twitter is, Yeah, the language is.

489
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 1: I'm telling you the language is irrelevant of what's the illegal,

490
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 1: what's not illegal. That the punishment has to be the

491
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: thing that keeps them from even trying it. They're punishing them.

492
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 1: They're being punished two guys. Yeah, there's twenty six, twenty

493
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: six guys on the team, maybe more to come. Twenty

494
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: six of them were cheating. We're benefiting from these two guys.

495
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: Two guys. And there's a question the manage works. They've benefited.

496
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: Who cares well, there's a question. Is that that cares?

497
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: I care because that indicates how serious the punishment should be.

498
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 1: If they benefited a little bit, well, here's here's your

499
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 1: here's your punishment, two draft picks and uh five million dollars.

500
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,360
Speaker 1: If they benefit a lot, the punishment will be more seriously.

501
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 1: And by the way, the issue is not settled yet.

502
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: There could be more players, there could be more teams involved. Yeah, yeah,

503
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 1: you might have Yeah, they might have a bad case

504
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 1: of cancer in the league. They might. I'd suggest I

505
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: would submit instead of going through Twitter and jumping on stuff.

506
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: Maybe we wait and see what they find out, see

507
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: what comes out. They've already five million bucks and a

508
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: couple of draft picks and two guys of the twenty

509
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 1: six who all of them knew, all of them knew.

510
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 1: I don't think they're all equally guilty, and I don't

511
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: think you think that either, but they're all I don't

512
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 1: know how to get the show going today. I don't start,

513
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 1: all right, how do we start? It's true, I I

514
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,959
Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's maybe it's the way I kind

515
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 1: of the way I was as a player too, because

516
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: for me, a guy like I've never been any rules,

517
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,479
Speaker 1: that's the thing. As I was a player who I

518
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: needed to know the rules and how to play within them.

519
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: So if they bent the rules and my I was

520
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 1: I got tossed because of that because somebody was doing

521
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,919
Speaker 1: something that shouldn't have been right, and it burned me.

522
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: At least I thought they wouldn't right. That's yeah, I

523
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 1: guess maybe it does touch a nerve with me personally,

524
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: because I needed guys to play by the rules because

525
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 1: it was all I could do just to get on

526
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: the field to play. So now you got these guys

527
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: who were whatever even and back then you had guys

528
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 1: back then it was legal. But in early in my

529
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: career you had guys shooting up steroids, it was before

530
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 1: it was even so you know, I needed to, you know,

531
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: play my best and have them playing all within the

532
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,400
Speaker 1: rules because it was a it was a tough place

533
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 1: to play. Somebody else doing something else and all of

534
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:36,439
Speaker 1: a sudden, I'm on the street because somebody else cheated. Good. Yeah,

535
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: that burns me. That burns me. And there's guys on

536
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 1: this that were you know, it took a while to

537
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,439
Speaker 1: the NFL to catch up with the steroid cheaters. That's right.

538
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: Somebody argue they have more work to do. The cheaters

539
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,959
Speaker 1: are always out ahead. They're always out ahead, and you know,

540
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: I have no problem hammering them for us for infractions.

541
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 1: I have no problem with it. I think I think

542
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: it's almost a must. You gotta make it like, don't

543
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: do that. If you get busted doing that, you're in

544
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 1: deep trouble. That because there's got to be guys who

545
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 1: are willing to say not with my career. So I

546
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: think that has to be the atmosphere. If they you know,

547
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: you cheat, you're out. You know, particularly in a level

548
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: like this where it's coordinated with technological enhancements, you know,

549
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,719
Speaker 1: the whole thing. I mean, it's got to be I

550
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 1: think you really got to take a strong stand against

551
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 1: Should you have been banned with the teammates who are

552
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 1: using steroids? What do you mean did you know of

553
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: any teammates using steroids? Everybody all it was legal, Okay,

554
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: during your entire career it was legal. They stopped at no.

555
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: In fact, you could tell when they stopped it because

556
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 1: the guy's bodies changed. So you're telling everybody stopped. Everybody stopped, Yeah,

557
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 1: as far as I know. And then it turned into

558
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 1: you know, then it turned into the list to the

559
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: supplement list, and you had to find supplements that weren't

560
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 1: on the list that you could take legally, and they

561
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: I think that's what they still do. That list is

562
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: like five pages long. Now, Okay, I knew we read that.

563
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 1: All right, we're going on about this. Coming up in

564
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 1: just a minute. Maddie glab is gonna join us. She's

565
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,160
Speaker 1: got some questions for us. She's got some interesting numbers

566
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: from the Bills season. Not they asked her it was,

567
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,639

568
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: us on how much I'm afraid of this quiz. I

569
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: think the question I haven't seen, I haven't looked anything up.

570
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 1: I'm just going on what I know. I think I

571
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: know a couple of them. I'm gonna guess yeah, I'm

572

Speaker 1: gonna guess it all of them. Maddie glab coming up.

584
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you a simple question, baseball cheating. Where

585
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: are you on this issue? Because I don't know where

586
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 1: Steve and I are, To be honest with you, you know,

587
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: we argue about it, and I don't know what we

588
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 1: argue about most of the time. I mean cheating is

589
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: not good in general, and regardless of what you're doing,

590
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be cheating. But but I played softball most

591
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 1: of my life and stealing signs are a part of

592
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: the game to some degree. Now, the way they were

593
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 1: stealing signs is not okay. I agree. I agree with

594
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: everything you say. Now, I don't want to get deep

595
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 1: into this, but if you the way they were stealing

596
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 1: signs is not okay, and they've been caught, and the

597
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: astros have been punished, and how serious is the punishment.

598
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: I should the punishment pe I mean we're talking about

599
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: outlining people for life, as some have suggested. I don't

600
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: think you should outlaw people for life. I don't either.

601
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: Do you want to say something stevery, No, I'll be quiet.

602
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: I'm because I disagree. Well, give us your quick disagreement,

603
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: then we'll get that you wanted to stop. It'll stop.

604
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,760

00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: Number one? The Bills average forty nine point six or

645
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: they allowed forty nine point six yards less than the

646
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: league average for this stat The Bills defense allowed forty

647
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: nine point six yards less than the league average for

648
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 1: this stats. Who's going first? I'll go first. Passing yards

649
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: per game, okay, Steve forty nine yards? I think that's

650
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 1: too big a number. I'm gonna. I'm gonna. I think

651
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: it's it's got total yards. Total yards is right? Total

652
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 1: yards is right? Yes, So the defense allowed two hundred

653
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: ninety eight point three yards per game. The league average

654
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 1: was three hundred and forty seven point nine yards per game.

655
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 1: Number two, the Bills averaged seventy eight and a half

656
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 1: percent of this, which was three point zero one percent

657
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: less than the league average seventy eight point three point one.

658
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 1: We can say three percent average is eighty point one

659
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: eighty one point Yeah, okay, so the Bills averaged the

660
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: Bills average seventy eight and a half percent of this.

661
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: I think I know go field gold. Yes, okay, Yeah,

662
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: you gotta get him the chance. They agree or not agree.

663
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 1: I disagree. Did you have a gasmer? No? No, okay,

664
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: I was no, okay. Next one, Number three, guess that

665
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: stat This player added seventeen point four to this stat

666
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 1: from last season. I know this one. This player added

667
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 1: seventeen point nine percent. Seventeen point four And if I

668
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 1: say what it is, it's going to give it away.

669
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: So this player added seventeen point four to the number

670
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 1: of this statistic from last year. From last year to

671
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 1: this on the show. Yeah, rushing yards, Devin Singletary, No,

672
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: I don't think of it. Josh Allen's quarterback rating, Yeah, okay,

673
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 1: passer rating. I don't understand these questions. Should I wear

674
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 1: them in a better way? No? Okay, Okay, Murph, this

675
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: one is yours. Think about the answer you just came. Okay.

676
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: From week eleven to week sixteen, one player had this number,

677
00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: five hundred and forty nine. Okay, what what is the number?

678
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: Rushing rushing yards? Rushing yards? I'm gonna say, scrimmage yards,

679
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 1: scrimmage yards, both both. Right, they're feeling bad for Murph

680
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: in there. They're giving him that one. Why why would

681
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: they give me that one? Because they're feeling bad for you?

682
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: Why why you got the player? Right? Yeah? Alright, alright,

683
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: go ahead, all right? Number five fifty seven. This stat

684
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 1: is a number from the entire season. Fifty seven. Um.

685
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 1: At first, I was gonna say sacks, But I don't

686
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: think that's where as too many. I think this is

687
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 1: not like a stat that would affect offense or defense.

688
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 1: Think big picture. I am hold on fifty seven. Oh,

689
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: I do know this one. That's how many players they

690
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:59,240
Speaker 1: used on their roster took live stats. Yep, yep, MH.

691
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 1: Total of fifty seven players were used. My family will

692
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 1: not play trivial pursuit with me. Really, I won't. That

693
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 1: is the lowest number, and it wasn't. It's not because

694
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 1: I know everything I like. I will either. Okay, So

695
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: I am such a jerk once in a one. See

696
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 1: if you've got five, murph, you've got one. You have,

697
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: there's five questions left, so you can make a comeback.

698
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 1: Now this is the an. Now we're going to a

699
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: f C NFC. Here we go. Okay, the number is six.

700
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: Only two teams had this who have won the Super Bowl.

701
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:44,720
Speaker 1: This is also big picture. This is easy like historical picture.

702
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,760
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, this is this is his Yeah in history

703
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 1: appearances in Super Bowl six, sixth seed yep, Oh yeah,

704
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 1: I heard that. Yep. Who were those teams? Do we know? Uh? Yes?

705
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: The Pittsburgh Steelers yep. And the two thousand and five,

706
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 1: two thousand and five Steelers in a two thousand and

707
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 1: ten Packers. Oh gosh, I thought it was the Giants.

708
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: The Tennessee Titans are the sixth seed and they have

709
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 1: a chance to make it three if they get a wind.

710
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 1: Get that one. Jerome Bettis was on that team. That

711
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: Willie Parker for the Steelers. All right, number two, seventy

712
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 1: five point six one team had this stat which was

713
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 1: the best of the season. What is the stat? Seventy

714
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 1: five point six? This is an offensive? Right, Yes, I

715
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: don't know if it's right. Seventy five point six percent

716
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 1: of what? I don't know. It's non offensive? No, I

717
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 1: think it's what I might be right. I was thinking

718
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 1: red zone efficiency. Titans, Dang, you were so good. I

719
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 1: watched TV. Tennessee had the best red zone offense this season.

720
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 1: Listen to this. They scored a touchdown on thirty one

721
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 1: of thirty five red zone trips since Tannehill took over

722
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,359
Speaker 1: as a starter in Week seven. That's eighty eight point

723
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 1: six percent. And in the playoffs they're five of five.

724
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: That is crazy. They were. It's amazing how they well,

725
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: they've played with Tannehill under center and he hasn't really

726
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: done that. They're gonna get smokes on. Do you think

727
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: I know? Wow, a lot of people are picking the Titans. Yeah,

728
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 1: we'll see. Yeah, it's hard not to. I mean, it's

729
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: hard not to pick the Chiefs. Yeah, Chiefs. Chiefs are

730
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 1: pretty good. All right, Okay, number three for the NFL

731
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:47,240
Speaker 1: questions twelve. One team has this number on big plays

732
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 1: the team and what stats? Touchdowns? Packers defensively or offensively?

733
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Town plays? Right? Offense? You're right,

734
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 1: but you're not right on the team. Oh oh, touchdowns

735
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 1: is correct. I'll say Baltimore, Baltimore Ravens twelve. No, I'll

00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: say it's a it's an offensive stat. Offensive stat who

Speaker 1: four thirty eight. This player has this stat in the

747
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:09,800
Speaker 1: postseason only, and if he has one more of this

748
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:14,480

Speaker 1: a lot of touchdowns. That's like, yeah, that's like San

755
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: Francisco going from Joe Montana to Stevio. Right, that's right,

756
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: that's so bad. All right, we go one more? All right,

757
00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: here we go. If if Murph gets this one, you win.

758
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: I'm on this one, winner takes all? All right? Number

759
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:10,320
Speaker 1: five eight point nine seven. In the last five regular

760
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: season games, this player has this eight point nine seven,

761
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 1: which ranks second in the NFL, and the last five

762
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 1: regular season games regular season games, Oh, okay, eight point nine.

763
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 1: This player is playing this weekend. I will say point

764
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:35,359
Speaker 1: ninety seven. I will say, say Richard Sherman, eight point

765
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: ninety seven. Of what if I if I say what

766
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 1: it is, going to give it away? Yeah, I'll say

767
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: Mahome's yards per tempt yards per attempt is right. But

768
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: think again, you want to guess. No, I'm I'm eliminated.

769
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 1: You're eliminated. Whoever we talked about yet what team that's

770
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 1: still Garoppolo? Yeah? Wow, I would never the last five

771
00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 1: regular season games, Jimmy g ranks second for eight point

772
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,800
Speaker 1: nine seven yards per attempt. He also ranked second in

773
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: completion percentage with sixty nine point eight and ties for

774
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 1: second with most twenty five plus yard passes with thirteen.

775
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 1: You know somewhere there's a niche for me that I

776
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: can like live my life and pick up these ancilliary

777
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 1: facts and didn't just spew them out when they're asked

778
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 1: on the topic of unfair advantages cheating no from our producer.

779
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: Some of these are from CBS notes that Steve obtained

780
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 1: this Oh, the truth is revealed. I came to you.

781
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 1: I obviously did you read through those this morning? Read

782
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: through me memorized. I got to get ready. Yeah. This

783
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 1: is also that the stats banishment. I didn't know that

784
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: they were even using those those How did you get

785
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 1: those notes? A little birdie sent them to me Jay

786
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: bird Hunt banishment right, um, and anybody who knew about

787
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,080
Speaker 1: there's another stat there's another stat that's in the know

788
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 1: that that you didn't use. There are two quarterbacks who

789
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 1: have won multiple games in the playoffs and their team

790
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: got to the Super Bowl. Two of them. One is

791
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill this year. Do you know who? The other

792
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:19,439
Speaker 1: one is multiple games, multiple games and thrown for less

793
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 1: than a hundred yards in those games. The quarterback, I don't.

794
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,839
Speaker 1: There's only two. Tannehill's one. The other one was Terry

795
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 1: Bradshaw in nineteen seventy four. That was unbelieved. I thought, wow,

796
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 1: that's pretty cool because you always think that, you know,

797
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 1: Bradshawn lyn Swan and those guys, they had that their

798
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: first year going to the Super Bowl. They couldn't even

799
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 1: throw it. Do you think he had an unfair advantage? Maybe? Oh,

800
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:47,879
Speaker 1: maybe I'm the last five a little bit. The last five.

801
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,280
Speaker 1: You took it from, You took it from the research.

802
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 1: That research. Yeah. Do you come up with all those

803
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,720
Speaker 1: studs on your own? Yeah? Late at night, I can't sleep.

804
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 1: You're up crunch in the numbers. No. Yeah, I'm still

805
00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 1: working on how to google things. So thanks, Maddie. That

806
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 1: that was good. We got the more to comment. It's

807
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,160
Speaker 1: One Bill's Live, presented by Colt of Hell from the

808
00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:21,840
Speaker 1: Seneca Studio in Orchard Park on Buffalo Bill's Radio, Welcome

809
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:25,360
Speaker 1: Back one five, John Murphy's Deep Tasker, the champion of

810
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 1: the stat race. There. That was good, Stevie would quite impressive.

811
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: Get a little study from Corbett. That's ok. It's funny

812
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 1: because I would rather read weird stats like that than

813
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: feature stories. Really. Yeah, I don't know why that's weird, right,

814
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,320
Speaker 1: it is weird, and maybe why I'm good at trivial pursuit.

815
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: I like little tidbits of factoids that stand out. Yeah,

816
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 1: you know that was amongst the ocean of statistics that

817
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 1: sports churns out. Maybe he did a good job. She

818
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: had some bills, she did some some NFL stats. Here's

819
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:01,640
Speaker 1: a call for Chuck and Clarence. Go ahead, Chuck around

820
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 1: the air. Yeah, I wanted to talk about the baseball. Okay,

821
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 1: let me make sure, can you hear? Yeah? I just

822
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 1: had I had my go ahead, Chuck. Yeah, there was

823
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,840
Speaker 1: a sweet irony there that Murphy. You were just accused,

824
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 1: accused the Tasker of cheating. But we're just kidding the tester.

825
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: But um, anyway, I wanted to make a couple of points,

826
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,759
Speaker 1: are you there? Yeah, go ahead, Chuck. They want to

827
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: make a couple of points. I kind of agree with you, Murphy.

828
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: I don't think anything's going to be done. Um, I

829
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 1: think they've peeked out. There might be a few more things,

830
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 1: but mainly, I think Major League Baseball, the owners and

831
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 1: the players entertainers are vested in each other's success, and

832
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 1: I don't think they want to go too deep into

833
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:53,800
Speaker 1: the dugouts and scrape people out, although although Steve I

834
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: would love to do it, I'm a purist for baseball.

835
00:45:56,760 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 1: And secondly, um, that five million dollars, I don't know

836
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 1: if you guys heard that. You probably did. That was

837
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 1: written into the constitution. They couldn't they couldn't charge each

838
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 1: other higher than five million dollars. They weren't even they

839
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:11,359
Speaker 1: weren't even going to hurt each other with the fine.

840
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 1: That was the top fline that we've written in on

841
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 1: the Constitution. I didn't know that. Lastly, yeah, well I

842
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 1: heard it on Major League Baseball that work. And and lastly,

843
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:26,800
Speaker 1: m gambling. We're gonna insert gambling into all sports, and

844
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 1: if we can't deal with the cheating, that is going

845
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,800
Speaker 1: to be really critical. It's a really good point about that.

846
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,480
Speaker 1: Really good point here comes gambling. I mean it's right.

847
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: They're knocking at the door right with sports gambling now

848
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 1: in every sport in every state, and it's gonna be crazy.

849
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: See if it's not gonna be good. If they can't

850
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 1: police this, they can't police that. If you know, you

851
00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 1: think that Patriots having a camera in the press box

852
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 1: that Cleveland was a problem, the league did too, and

853
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna be uh you know, penalized for that. But

854
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: holy kwle, that stuff's gonna be every week, there's going

855
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: to be your report of they did this, they did that,

856
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: they gott I'm not talking about the Patriots. Everybody will

857
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 1: be getting in trouble. It's not gonna be fun. Yeah,

858
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:11,800
Speaker 1: it's it's it's distasteful, and it's scary. It is scary,

859
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 1: and it is It does make you wonder about the

860
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:20,280
Speaker 1: credibility of the league going forward and all these leagues

861
00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 1: going forward if if there is a hint of impropriety

862
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,320
Speaker 1: due to gambling odds and wagers and that kind of stuff.

863
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 1: And we had this conversation when the New Jersey you know,

864
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 1: when the Supreme Court heard the New Jersey ruling, we

865
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,359
Speaker 1: had all these conversations about how what the risks are

866
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:40,400
Speaker 1: and could be and all the different ways that you know,

867
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 1: we don't sit around thinking about that. There are professional

868
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,359
Speaker 1: people who really do sit around and thinking about how

869
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,360
Speaker 1: they can get around that and profit by it. And

870
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 1: I think it's this the league's unwillingness to crush it

871
00:47:56,640 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 1: when they find it is troubling. Yeah, I don't know

872
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:03,840
Speaker 1: if they can crush As he said, five million is

873
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 1: the maximum fine. I don't know. I'm prepared to wait

874
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 1: and see what comes out of the Baseball investigations before

875
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:12,319
Speaker 1: anybody should be crushed or banned for life. You are

876
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 1: not prepared to do that. But that's okay, But it's

877
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 1: going to be interesting to see what happens. As I

878
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:20,000
Speaker 1: said yesterday on the show, the punishment is one thing.

879
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,399
Speaker 1: Do we take away titles? Maybe you do, maybe you don't.

880
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,600
Speaker 1: It's the message that is sent to fans of the sport.

881
00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:27,560
Speaker 1: But these games might not be on the up and

882
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:29,320
Speaker 1: up that I think will do the greatest damage. I

883
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:33,239
Speaker 1: think it's maybe I'll already have done damage for these games.

884
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:35,480
Speaker 1: Certainly in some fans minds, it has Is there any

885
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:38,359
Speaker 1: scenario where you would say the league didn't do enough?

886
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: Like what I mean, what would they have to find

887
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I don't even know what they

888
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 1: look for me. I'd have to think about that. But

889
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,239
Speaker 1: in baseball or football and what we're talking about here

890
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 1: with this, this sign stealing thing, is there any and

891
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: because if there's, because here's the attitude that we're finding

892
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:54,800
Speaker 1: the people we talked to here live in the control

893
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:56,680
Speaker 1: room and some of the callers maybe you and me too.

894
00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:58,840
Speaker 1: The sign stealing has been done is kind of you know,

895
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 1: even Maddie said, hey, we steal signs in SOCT you

896
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 1: know everybody does. So if if if it's that attitude, Um,

897
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:10,960
Speaker 1: and this is just up from that, you know, okay, Um,

898
00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:14,480
Speaker 1: when does that change? And what happens and how bad

899
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 1: does it have to be in this instance? Would there

900
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 1: ever be anything serious enough? And as I said the

901
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 1: other day, there's always been sign stealing and this is

902
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 1: an escalation of that using technology, which is why I

903
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:28,279
Speaker 1: think the proposal to not allow them to use real

904
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,839
Speaker 1: time video technology during the game for any purpose might

905
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:34,279
Speaker 1: nip this in the butt. It might. It might now

906
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:37,240
Speaker 1: there will there be something else, probably will be someday,

907
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 1: you know, and maybe sooner rather than later, they'll find

908
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,800
Speaker 1: another way to get around the rules to push the

909
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:43,440
Speaker 1: envelope a little bit. So this is from what I'm

910
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 1: hearing in commentary and stuff on you know, around the

911
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,800
Speaker 1: media all over. The way they used to do this

912
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:51,960
Speaker 1: was if if they caught you stealing signs or whatever,

913
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:53,719
Speaker 1: because it used to be unwritten and nobody did it.

914
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:55,920
Speaker 1: Now everbody's kind of like, okay, and it used to

915
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,839
Speaker 1: be that just that's where a brushback pitches happen. You're

916
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 1: stealing signs, you're gonna get thrown at, right, and they

917
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 1: police at themselves like hockey, if you're gonna do that

918
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:05,440
Speaker 1: to our goalie, we're gonna fight, you know that kind

919
00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 1: of thing. So the players kind of took it over,

920
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 1: but they kind of moved away from that, and now

921
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 1: that you know, what are you talking about, everybody's kind

922
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: of doing it so they don't want to come down

923
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 1: too hard on it. What should the league do? I

924
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 1: don't know. And how how much of an impact did

925
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,120
Speaker 1: it have on the outcome of games? And what would

926
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 1: happens in question? Well you'll never know that, you know,

927
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 1: I mean, what if anything could happen out of this

928
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 1: that would cause you to say, wow, they should have

929
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:33,480
Speaker 1: really gone hard on it. Is there anything really I

930
00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,759
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know. Yeah, I don't have these answers. Steve,

931
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 1: all right, we gotta break here and when we return,

932
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:43,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna escape the cheating issues for a few minutes. Anyway,

933
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:46,640
Speaker 1: Great co Sell from NFL Matchup on ESPN. We'll join

946
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,200

Speaker 1: most of his thirteen year run with the Green Bay

964
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,759
Speaker 1: Packers at some successful offenses there, but Moore has been

965
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 1: with quarterback Dak Prescott as a teammate and a coach,

966
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,520

Speaker 1: interviewing now. He interviewed yesterday for the vacant Jacksonville Jaguar's

970
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,400

Speaker 1: Kyler Murray says he may look at playing baseball somewhere

974
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 1: down the line. Arizona Cardinals quarterback says he believes he

975
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 1: could join a short list of athletes to play pro

976
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,879
Speaker 1: baseball and football at the same time, and the same

977

984
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 1: Steve are you guys ready. I think we're ready. We

985
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 1: got hung up talking baseball a lot this week, but

986
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 1: I know I was. I guess it wasn't a good week,

987
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,080
Speaker 1: not a good week for baseball, not a good week

988
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:35,160
Speaker 1: now week, And unfortunately it was yeah, more interesting than

989
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 1: what was going around around One Bills Live due to

990
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:38,880
Speaker 1: you do the game a couple of weeks ago. But

991
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:41,799
Speaker 1: we're still doing good. Glad you're here. Good hey, Greg,

992
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,359
Speaker 1: before we get onto this weekend's games. And you had

993
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 1: a tweet this week which got my attention about the

994
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 1: centennial class of Fall of famers, including yes, the great

995
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:53,279
Speaker 1: Steve Sabole of the of the NFL films. Can you

996
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:55,480
Speaker 1: talk about what he meant to that organization and what

997
00:53:55,560 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 1: he meant to you in a personal sense, well only

998
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 1: for the organization, unbelievable, but you know, from a personal perspective,

999
00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 1: because I started here in nineteen seventy nine and biggest

1000
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:09,920
Speaker 1: Sable was still around. He got in the Hall of

1001
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 1: Fame and number of years ago. But Steve was really

1002
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 1: the guiding force as time progressed, and he was really

1003
00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:18,520
Speaker 1: the driver of my career, which I said in my

1004
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:21,840
Speaker 1: tweet which you've put up. He was really responsible for

1005
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,480
Speaker 1: me doing what I'm doing, because in nineteen eighty four

1006
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 1: he came to me sort of with the germ of

1007
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 1: an idea about a matchup show, because at that point

1008
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,439
Speaker 1: ESPN was just looking for programming. It was nineteen eighty

1009
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 1: four a member, which probably seems to someone who's twenty

1010
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:37,799
Speaker 1: five or thirty they don't even know what that means.

1011
00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 1: But it was nineteen eighty four, no one was doing

1012
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,239
Speaker 1: football from an X and O perspective, and I guess

1013
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:46,279
Speaker 1: he saw something in me. I'd been here for five

1014
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:49,040
Speaker 1: years and he came to me and said, hey, here's

1015
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,359
Speaker 1: an idea I'm tossing around in my head. Why don't

1016
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,279
Speaker 1: you mess around with it, an I'll Slater kind of thing.

1017
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:57,560
Speaker 1: And of course it's now thirty five, thirty six years

1018
00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:01,480
Speaker 1: later and we're still doing that. I think it worked

1019
00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:03,799
Speaker 1: out pretty good. But the point is he was really

1020
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 1: my mentor, he was my friend. He was really the

1021
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 1: driving force behind me, and probably so many people in

1022
00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,279
Speaker 1: the company, and I'm sure they would say the same thing.

1023
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:15,400
Speaker 1: So it was. It was a great day at NFL

1024
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,879
Speaker 1: films on Wednesday. And it's interesting too, you talk about,

1025
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:19,920
Speaker 1: you know, NFL matchup and I was a program as

1026
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 1: an idea that he came up with, but it really

1027
00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:24,920
Speaker 1: was and this is why guys get to the Hall

1028
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,280
Speaker 1: of Fame. It was pioneering. Nobody, even most people didn't

1029
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,560
Speaker 1: know what coach's film even looked like. They didn't know

1030
00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:32,480
Speaker 1: what All twenty two was, They didn't know what end

1031
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 1: zone perspective was, all of this stuff. People didn't even

1032
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:38,320
Speaker 1: know that these games were filmed so that players and

1033
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,120
Speaker 1: coaches could get better. I mean, so it was really

1034
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 1: pioneering stuff. And now what we take is, you know,

1035
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 1: football one on one didn't exist as football one on one.

1036
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 1: And that's why I mean, this your show and you

1037
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:55,400
Speaker 1: talk about Pro Football Focus, Pro Football Reference, all of

1038
00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:59,160
Speaker 1: the stuff, it really comes down to that show NFL

1039
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,399
Speaker 1: matchup in the I, as Steve Sable had almost forty

1040
00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:04,320
Speaker 1: years ago. Well it's funny you say that, because at

1041
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 1: Eagles training camp this year, I happened to be there

1042
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 1: the same day that Peter King was there. And I know,

1043
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 1: you guys know Peter well, I've known him forever, and

1044
00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:12,480
Speaker 1: so I saw him and he came up to me

1045
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:16,000
Speaker 1: and he said, because I had put out somewhere that

1046
00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 1: I was with the league for forty years. I probably

1047
00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,000
Speaker 1: tweeted it and he came up to me and said, wow,

1048
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:22,520
Speaker 1: you know, do you realize you've been with the NFL

1049
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:26,080
Speaker 1: for four tenths of its existence? Which you made me

1050
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: kind of go wow. And then we started talking about

1051
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 1: the Matchup Show and he said to me, do you

1052
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:33,120
Speaker 1: ever think that if it wasn't for you? And I

1053
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 1: would struggle with, you know, patting myself on the back.

1054
00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:37,359
Speaker 1: I'm not that kind of guy, but he said, did

1055
00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 1: you ever think of it wasn't for you? All these

1056
00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 1: other shows that now exist, whether it's Tony Dungee doing

1057
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:45,720
Speaker 1: breakdowns at halftime on Football Night in America or whatever

1058
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 1: it may be over the years, He said, those things

1059
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't even have happened if it wasn't for you and

1060
00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: the Matchup Show. And you know, I don't tend to

1061
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:54,799
Speaker 1: think like that, but you know, he was nice enough

1062
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 1: to write a little blurb about it in his column,

1063
00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,080
Speaker 1: and you know, it just made me think that, you know,

1064
00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:02,640
Speaker 1: we started all and it's we've been fortunate and really

1065
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 1: grateful to have it go on for so long. Great

1066
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:07,880
Speaker 1: co Sell talking about his show NFL Matchup on ESPN.

1067
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,040
Speaker 1: It's on tomorrow morning, eight thirty in the morning on

1068
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,480
Speaker 1: ESPN two. It's on twice on Sunday, four am and

1069
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 1: six thirty am on ESPN. I'm sure you're going to

1070
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 1: deal with the championship games. Let's talk about them and

1071
00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 1: the AFC title game, the Titans and the Chiefs. How

1072
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:24,880
Speaker 1: surprised are you that the Tennessee Titans are playing in

1073
00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 1: this game on Sunday? Greg, Well, M, I've seen a

1074
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,280
Speaker 1: lot as you have, so you know, surprised it's probably

1075
00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 1: not the right word. Did I think they'd be there? No?

1076
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 1: But you know, I always when you study tape, you know,

1077
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 1: there's always five reasons or ten reasons why you think

1078
00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:41,240
Speaker 1: a team could win or you think a team could lose,

1079
00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: and then it depends on how games play out. And

1080
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:48,080
Speaker 1: I guess what's probably more surprising to me is the

1081
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:51,600
Speaker 1: fact that they're there. With the quarterback Ryan Tannehill not

1082
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,000
Speaker 1: having thrown for one hundred yards in either of the

1083
00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: two playoff victories, that would be surprising to me. But

1084
00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:59,880
Speaker 1: the fact that they're there because I've studied the Titans

1085
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,440
Speaker 1: all year and they have good players, they have good schemes,

1086
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:07,480
Speaker 1: particularly defensively with Dean P's I'm not necessarily surprised because

1087
00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:10,720
Speaker 1: they're capable, but it's truly surprising to me that they're

1088
00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:13,440
Speaker 1: there without the quarterback throwing for a hundred yards and

1089
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:15,800
Speaker 1: either of their two playoff wins. Both these teams in

1090
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:18,919
Speaker 1: both championship games AFC, NFC. These teams met before early

1091
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 1: in the season. Do you take anything away from the

1092
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 1: Titans Chiefs games earlier in the year, You always do, Steve.

1093
00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,240
Speaker 1: You know that as a former player, you always look

1094
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:29,760
Speaker 1: at a previous game. You probably understand that the tactics

1095
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:32,920
Speaker 1: won't be exactly the same, but teams do have foundations

1096
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 1: with what they do. In terms of tactics, you look

1097
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:39,000
Speaker 1: for individual matchups. You know, you study your position, you

1098
00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:41,880
Speaker 1: study the players you're likely to play against, so you

1099
00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 1: always take something away. That was actually the first game

1100
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 1: of the Derrick Henry run, so to speak. I think

1101
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 1: he had one hundred and eighty eight yards on twenty

1102
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:53,760
Speaker 1: three carries, including a big sixty eight yard touchdown, and

1103
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,880
Speaker 1: that sort of started the the Derrick Henry freight train

1104
00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:00,960
Speaker 1: rolling where he became the foundation of that offense. I wonder, Greg,

1105
00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: and I've been thinking about this a lot this week.

1106
00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 1: Is Derek Henry like a throwback, you know, three hundred carries,

1107
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:08,400
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred yards of rushing or is he maybe a

1108
00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:10,320
Speaker 1: sign of things to come in the NFL that you

1109
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 1: can win with a main running back like that? And

1110
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:16,920
Speaker 1: that's a great question, Murph. The league, as you know

1111
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 1: because you've covered it for a long time, is very cyclical.

1112
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 1: You know, just when people think, hey, this is the

1113
00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,080
Speaker 1: way it is and that's the way we're going to

1114
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 1: be forever, things change. That's the history of the NFL.

1115
00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 1: So I'm certainly not smart enough to sit here and say, hey,

1116
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 1: this is the way the league will be. But I

1117
00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 1: think that there have been a lot more run offenses

1118
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:35,520
Speaker 1: this year in the NFL. Teams have focused on the

1119
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,080
Speaker 1: run game a little more. I mean, look, he's had

1120
00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:40,440
Speaker 1: thirty plus carries in each of the last three games.

1121
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 1: I don't think that's likely to happen on a consistent basis.

1122
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 1: But you know, the running game has always been important,

1123
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 1: it's just how people get to it. We started to

1124
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 1: reach that sort of clichede conventional wisdom statement that you

1125
00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:55,560
Speaker 1: need a great quarterback. And I'm not suggesting your quarterback

1126
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:57,520
Speaker 1: shouldn't be a factor or can't be a factor, but

1127
00:59:57,840 --> 00:59:59,520
Speaker 1: There's a lot of ways to win in this league,

1128
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:02,240
Speaker 1: and I personally think Derrick Henry is a much improved

1129
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:05,280
Speaker 1: runner two this season. Maybe it's a function of volume,

1130
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:07,600
Speaker 1: but I think he's much improved. Yeah, a couple of

1131
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 1: things about this matchup Derrick Henry is. The first would

1132
01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:12,880
Speaker 1: be if they win this game, the first player since

1133
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:14,800
Speaker 1: two thousand and five to win the rushing title and

1134
01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:17,160
Speaker 1: then actually get to the super Bowl. So you know

1135
01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 1: it's turned into it is a passing league. But we

1136
01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:23,400
Speaker 1: said it earlier in the show this week, all four

1137
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:25,880
Speaker 1: of the top rushing teams in the NFL made it

1138
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:28,520
Speaker 1: to the playoffs, and the top four passing teams did not.

1139
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:32,000
Speaker 1: I think maybe it's a trend. It's I don't I

1140
01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:34,680
Speaker 1: certainly don't think it's a characteristic, but maybe it's a

1141
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:36,680
Speaker 1: way that these offenses have found a way to make

1142
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:42,320
Speaker 1: hay against lighter, faster defenses. This run that Derrick Henry's on,

1143
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:44,800
Speaker 1: it reminds me, and I looked it up today of

1144
01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:48,240
Speaker 1: Terrell Davis and the four years he had in Denver

1145
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:50,120
Speaker 1: where he was the engine of that offer. Even with

1146
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 1: John Elway at quarterback, Terrell Davis in just what seventy

1147
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 1: games or so went to the Hall of Fame with

1148
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:01,120
Speaker 1: runs like Derrick Henry has put together in this late

1149
01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:04,920
Speaker 1: in the season. He has been unstoppable, you know. And

1150
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:08,560
Speaker 1: it's funny because they are not that complex from multiple

1151
01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:12,120
Speaker 1: or run game. It's outside zone, it's inside zone. It's

1152
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:15,560
Speaker 1: an occasional gap scheme run with power. They'll toss it

1153
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 1: to him on occasion to get him going downhill with

1154
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 1: velocity and momentum. But as I said, I think he's improved.

1155
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 1: I think he's become far more decisive attacking the line

1156
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,920
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. And this may surprise him people, but I

1157
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 1: think he's become far more physical and confined space. He

1158
01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:35,240
Speaker 1: was always physical if he could develop speed, so if

1159
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:37,880
Speaker 1: he got three, four or five steps and he got

1160
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 1: him rolling, then he was physical. But I never thought

1161
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:44,080
Speaker 1: he was as physical as his size would indicate when

1162
01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,840
Speaker 1: he was in confined space. And now I think he

1163
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 1: is so in those two areas decisiveness and being physical

1164
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:53,200
Speaker 1: and confined space, I think he's improved, and I think

1165
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 1: that's allowed him to really do what he's been doing.

1166
01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:59,080
Speaker 1: And the Titans have found a role for Derrick Henry

1167
01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:02,880
Speaker 1: in screen passes too, right Greg, They do that on

1168
01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:05,600
Speaker 1: occasion because they get the ball to him in space

1169
01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 1: and then he gets that big body rolling because he's

1170
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:10,440
Speaker 1: kind of like a freight train. I mean, he's very

1171
01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:12,840
Speaker 1: fast for a man that size, and if he can

1172
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:16,120
Speaker 1: get four or five steps without anybody really touching him,

1173
01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:17,800
Speaker 1: and that's why they tossed the ball to him as well.

1174
01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:20,760
Speaker 1: At times he gets those four or five steps, he's

1175
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:24,200
Speaker 1: fast and then he's his size really as a factor. Yeah,

1176
01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:26,640
Speaker 1: and what are some of the ways that you know

1177
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,840
Speaker 1: the Ryan Tannehill has to compliment him? I mean, the

1178
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 1: guy's not even thrown for one hundred yards in these games.

1179
01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:33,880
Speaker 1: I mean, and you say, you know, he'll throw it

1180
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 1: and he'll throw it to he'll throw it to Derrick Henry.

1181
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 1: So what how much does Ryan Tannehill really have to do?

1182
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 1: Certainly they're playing against a better team each week because

1183
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:45,480
Speaker 1: of the nature of the playoffs. But you know, what

1184
01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 1: do you foresee if you can in this game of

1185
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:49,760
Speaker 1: what Ryan Tanneill is going to have to do or

1186
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:52,560
Speaker 1: what could he do that he hasn't done? Well? I

1187
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:56,479
Speaker 1: think we would probably agree that the Chiefs will score

1188
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,520
Speaker 1: some points and we don't know how many. You know,

1189
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:02,120
Speaker 1: the Titan do have a solid defense, although they're beautiball

1190
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:05,480
Speaker 1: in certain areas. But I think we'd all probably believe

1191
01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 1: that this is not going to be a seventeen thirteen game.

1192
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:12,280
Speaker 1: So the question is how do you score a lot

1193
01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:15,480
Speaker 1: of points if you're Tennessee. Now they're a shot play offense.

1194
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:18,040
Speaker 1: They hit one last week to calif Rayman. They hit

1195
01:03:18,080 --> 01:03:21,160
Speaker 1: one against the Chiefs when they played Week ten. That's

1196
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:23,200
Speaker 1: the way they like to get the ball down the field.

1197
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:26,400
Speaker 1: The question is can that be enough or well, when

1198
01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:28,480
Speaker 1: all said and done, we'll Tannehill have to drop back

1199
01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 1: thirty or more times, which he has not done in

1200
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:34,520
Speaker 1: a number of weeks. So I think that's the question

1201
01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:36,800
Speaker 1: we're all kind of asking. Yes, they're going to run

1202
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:38,919
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. He may run for one hundred fifty yards,

1203
01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:41,480
Speaker 1: he may run for two hundred yards. Is that going

1204
01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:44,400
Speaker 1: to score enough points? The goal of shortening the game

1205
01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 1: is always admirable, but Patrick Mahomes will still get nine

1206
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:51,120
Speaker 1: possessions even if the game shortened. If he scores touchdowns

1207
01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:54,080
Speaker 1: on four or five of those, then the Titans are

1208
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:56,320
Speaker 1: gonna have to score touchdowns. They were very creative in

1209
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,440
Speaker 1: the red zone last week with the jump pass and

1210
01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:01,160
Speaker 1: the speed option. Those things are going to be critical

1211
01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:04,200
Speaker 1: for them because quite honestly, their defense, the Titans defense

1212
01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:06,480
Speaker 1: has been really poor in the red zone and they

1213
01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:08,400
Speaker 1: give up a lot of touchdowns when teams get in

1214
01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:11,520
Speaker 1: the red zone. These two teams met, you know, back

1215
01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:14,480
Speaker 1: in November, November tenth. It was the Titans want it,

1216
01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 1: and yet Patrick Mahomes had a big day. He threw

1217
01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:18,280
Speaker 1: for a lot of yards four hundred and forty yards

1218
01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:20,320
Speaker 1: passing in that game. There's no reason to think they

1219
01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:22,960
Speaker 1: would shut him down this week. I wouldn't think. Uh No,

1220
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:25,720
Speaker 1: he actually had season highs and completions and yards in

1221
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,520
Speaker 1: that game. Murph. And this is an offense with so

1222
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:34,640
Speaker 1: much speed, so many weapons, very formation diverse. It's a

1223
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:39,480
Speaker 1: really difficult offense to defend. So again, like I said,

1224
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:41,000
Speaker 1: I don't think any of us are thinking that the

1225
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:43,640
Speaker 1: Chiefs are going to score thirteen or seventeen points. I

1226
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,280
Speaker 1: think we're thinking that at minimum they'd get twenty four

1227
01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:48,680
Speaker 1: to twenty seven. So I guess we'll find out. But

1228
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,200
Speaker 1: I mean, Mahomes is playing well now. You know. One

1229
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:53,440
Speaker 1: thing that stands out is his ability to make plays

1230
01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:56,640
Speaker 1: on the move. A second reaction plays, as we call them.

1231
01:04:56,920 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 1: They're a very very difficult defense to deal with. That

1232
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:03,240
Speaker 1: with Tyreek Hill, McCall Hardman, two of the fastest wide

1233
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:06,160
Speaker 1: receivers in the league. It's you can't let those guys

1234
01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:07,960
Speaker 1: get over the top of you. And we haven't even

1235
01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:11,160
Speaker 1: mentioned Kelsey yet. And Kelsey ate up the Texans because

1236
01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:12,800
Speaker 1: they chose to play a ton of man to man

1237
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 1: coverage and they could not handle Kelsey. Yeah. And one

1238
01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:17,560
Speaker 1: of the things about those, all those touchdown passes that

1239
01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:21,680
Speaker 1: Mahomes through in the in the game against the Texans,

1240
01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:24,120
Speaker 1: none of them were very long. They weren't shot plays.

1241
01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:27,360
Speaker 1: I mean he flipped the ball. All five touchdowns were

1242
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 1: less than ten yards in the air and he was

1243
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:31,800
Speaker 1: they were in the red zone. Is that, you know,

1244
01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:34,440
Speaker 1: how do you defend that? What's the philosophy behind defending that?

1245
01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:36,880
Speaker 1: If you're the Tennessee Titans walking in there and keeping him,

1246
01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:40,720
Speaker 1: you know, kind of defending these little not even really

1247
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:42,600
Speaker 1: over the head and passes. I mean he's just flipping

1248
01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:45,880
Speaker 1: him forward almost well, and a bunch of those came

1249
01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:48,160
Speaker 1: two on second reaction plays where he moved and he's

1250
01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:50,920
Speaker 1: really good. One thing about Mahomes, he has tremendous vision

1251
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:53,840
Speaker 1: on the move, and he's very calm and poised. But

1252
01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:55,880
Speaker 1: as I mentioned, the Titans have been really poor in

1253
01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 1: the red zone this year, among the worst in the

1254
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:02,240
Speaker 1: league and touchdown percentage. Defensively, they've chosen to play a

1255
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:04,360
Speaker 1: ton of man coverage in the red zone this year.

1256
01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:07,360
Speaker 1: They've gotten burned. So we'll see a with a week

1257
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:09,560
Speaker 1: to get to this championship game if Dan P's their

1258
01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:12,720
Speaker 1: decoordinator changes up a bit. But that's an area in

1259
01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:15,360
Speaker 1: which they've really struggled. And if the Chiefs get down

1260
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,280
Speaker 1: inside the twenty and they start scoring touchdowns, then I

1261
01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:20,000
Speaker 1: think it'll be tough for Tennessee. I want to get

1262
01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:22,640
Speaker 1: you talking about the NFC Championship game. Greg great co

1263
01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:27,240
Speaker 1: Seller guests the executive producer analyst of NFL Matchup on ESPN.

1264
01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:29,800
Speaker 1: Look at you know. I know it's not always as simple,

1265
01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 1: but I do believe the better quarterback usually wins. And

1266
01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:36,080
Speaker 1: I guess I give Aaron Rodgers the engine in that game.

1267
01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:38,280
Speaker 1: I give the Packers and Aaron Rodgers an engine this game,

1268
01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:40,000
Speaker 1: even though most people are going the other way, Greg,

1269
01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:43,520
Speaker 1: what do you think, Well, I guess I would say

1270
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:45,760
Speaker 1: murf that I think there has to be some meaningful

1271
01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:49,640
Speaker 1: run game for the Packers because that d line for

1272
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers is really good, particularly they're nickel front.

1273
01:06:53,720 --> 01:06:55,680
Speaker 1: Not only do they have good players, but they're really

1274
01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 1: multiple and what they do, so I think the run

1275
01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:02,200
Speaker 1: game is important. Studying this forty nine Ers defense. One

1276
01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:04,440
Speaker 1: thing that showed up on tape and then the numbers

1277
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 1: did validate it is they've struggled to stop the run

1278
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:10,880
Speaker 1: when they're in their nickel and I'm wondering if maybe

1279
01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:12,800
Speaker 1: the Packers they're going if I know what they know it,

1280
01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:15,840
Speaker 1: Let's let's be realistic here. I'm wondering if they'll line

1281
01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:18,360
Speaker 1: up with Rodgers and the gun Aaron Jones offset and

1282
01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:21,080
Speaker 1: run the ball out of three wide receivers and try

1283
01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:23,920
Speaker 1: to develop some kind of run game because I do

1284
01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:26,800
Speaker 1: think they need some volume and some production out of

1285
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:28,760
Speaker 1: that run game. I don't think this can be just

1286
01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:31,720
Speaker 1: a game where Aaron Rodgers drops back forty five fifty

1287
01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:34,640
Speaker 1: times by choice. Let's talk about it. I mean, the

1288
01:07:34,760 --> 01:07:37,040
Speaker 1: last time these two teams played, the forty nine Ers

1289
01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:41,080
Speaker 1: just man handled thirty seven to eight the Packers. What

1290
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:42,920
Speaker 1: do you take from that game? And is it going

1291
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:46,240
Speaker 1: to be any different this time, and why my senses,

1292
01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:49,000
Speaker 1: it's not going to be the same game. You know,

1293
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:51,280
Speaker 1: that was one of those games. It was Rodgers worst game.

1294
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was his worst game as

1295
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:54,240
Speaker 1: a pro, but I think he only threw for about

1296
01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:57,240
Speaker 1: seventy five yards. You know, one arry in that game

1297
01:07:57,320 --> 01:08:00,840
Speaker 1: they struggled with was their right tackle. Bluelah only played

1298
01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:02,760
Speaker 1: nine snaps and then he got hurt, and then they

1299
01:08:02,800 --> 01:08:04,640
Speaker 1: had to play a free agent at right tackle. They

1300
01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:07,200
Speaker 1: struggled in that area. They never could get any kind

1301
01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:11,640
Speaker 1: of run game going. So, you know, I think it's

1302
01:08:11,720 --> 01:08:13,880
Speaker 1: hard to be the defense like the forty nine ers

1303
01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:17,880
Speaker 1: without some semblance of balance, and again balance is a

1304
01:08:17,960 --> 01:08:21,439
Speaker 1: relative term, but they really struggle to move the ball.

1305
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:23,920
Speaker 1: They were terrible on third down. They were one for

1306
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,519
Speaker 1: fifteen on third down, and most of those third downs

1307
01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:31,280
Speaker 1: were third and long. That's the killer because that's where

1308
01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:33,800
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers do their multiple fronts out of

1309
01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:37,160
Speaker 1: their nickel subfront, and they're tough to handle for every team,

1310
01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:41,479
Speaker 1: not just the Packers. Is it possible that now when

1311
01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:43,600
Speaker 1: both teams are in the NFC Championship game, in that

1312
01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:46,920
Speaker 1: game is virtually meaningless now that that could be at

1313
01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:49,640
Speaker 1: the way that game turned out is a benefit for

1314
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:54,120
Speaker 1: the Packers because they know they've do something completely different,

1315
01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 1: and maybe the forty nine Ers, I don't know, what

1316
01:08:56,600 --> 01:09:00,200
Speaker 1: do you change if you crushed them that badly? Well,

1317
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:02,680
Speaker 1: you know, Steve as a player, I think that game

1318
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:04,880
Speaker 1: probably gets the attention to the players if you're watching

1319
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:07,439
Speaker 1: the tape, you know, because they know that they just

1320
01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:11,280
Speaker 1: got manhandled. Obviously, you've got to try to do some

1321
01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:16,920
Speaker 1: different things, you know, offensively for sure, although as you

1322
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,040
Speaker 1: guys know, at some point in the season, you kind

1323
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,000
Speaker 1: of are defined and you kind of do what you do.

1324
01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:24,559
Speaker 1: Davanta Adams will be very interesting to me because here's

1325
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:28,240
Speaker 1: the guy who missed four games. Okay, he missed four games,

1326
01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:31,639
Speaker 1: and he still has more than twice as many targets

1327
01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:34,840
Speaker 1: as any other wide receiver on the team. But then

1328
01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:37,040
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers offense, which we're taking a look

1329
01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,439
Speaker 1: at right now, that is built on what I view

1330
01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: is the best run pass fusion in the NFL. The

1331
01:09:42,080 --> 01:09:44,880
Speaker 1: way they use the play action and the run action

1332
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,840
Speaker 1: to get to their pass game, and they're better than

1333
01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:51,240
Speaker 1: anybody else in the NFL doing that. What do they

1334
01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:53,519
Speaker 1: do the forty nine ers what do they do? I

1335
01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:55,960
Speaker 1: know they got personnel on defense, but what schematically do

1336
01:09:56,040 --> 01:10:00,680
Speaker 1: they do on defense? It makes them so tough, I

1337
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:03,200
Speaker 1: would say, other than what they do upfront, murf, they're

1338
01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:07,040
Speaker 1: not that difficult from a tactical standpoint, although over the

1339
01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:09,840
Speaker 1: course of the season they've played a far more man

1340
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:13,120
Speaker 1: coverage on third down. Everybody thinks they're a Cover three team,

1341
01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:15,640
Speaker 1: and yes, that's one of their foundations, but over the

1342
01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:19,200
Speaker 1: course of the season, they've evolved on third down, in particular,

1343
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:21,600
Speaker 1: to play more what we call Cover one, which is

1344
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:24,280
Speaker 1: man covered with one high safety. They play a lot

1345
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:26,800
Speaker 1: now of two man as well, which is Cover one

1346
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:29,960
Speaker 1: with two high safeties splitting the field. So they've become

1347
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,880
Speaker 1: a more man based team on third down. Their pass

1348
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:36,200
Speaker 1: rush allows them to do that, and it all starts

1349
01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:39,280
Speaker 1: with their pass rush obviously, but they've really evolved to

1350
01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 1: playing more man coverage. Is this Niners defense? How good

1351
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:45,880
Speaker 1: does it become? Particularly and when they can only get

1352
01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:48,080
Speaker 1: they can get pressure with only the four guys rushing.

1353
01:10:48,320 --> 01:10:50,200
Speaker 1: I mean it seems like with the four guys they

1354
01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:52,200
Speaker 1: have rushing or what they can get a lot of pressure,

1355
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,600
Speaker 1: or seven guys and it just makes it so difficult

1356
01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:57,559
Speaker 1: to throw the football when it's got to come out

1357
01:10:57,640 --> 01:11:00,960
Speaker 1: on time and there's the extra guy dropping out, and

1358
01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:03,479
Speaker 1: it's a numbers game. As you know, Steve, all football

1359
01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:05,519
Speaker 1: is if you're going to send five out, and maybe

1360
01:11:05,560 --> 01:11:07,479
Speaker 1: you only can send four out because you might need

1361
01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,960
Speaker 1: someone to help protect. If you send five out and

1362
01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:13,280
Speaker 1: they have seven in coverage, you know, seven usually beats five.

1363
01:11:13,360 --> 01:11:15,680
Speaker 1: It's tougher. But the one really good thing about what

1364
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:18,200
Speaker 1: the Niners do. They don't just line up with their

1365
01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:21,960
Speaker 1: four downlignement to rush the quarterback. They're really good with

1366
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:24,800
Speaker 1: their fronts. They'll bring Fred Warner up on the line

1367
01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:27,120
Speaker 1: of scrimmage and then you have to account for him.

1368
01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:29,679
Speaker 1: Even if he does not rush, he must be accounted

1369
01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:31,760
Speaker 1: for because you don't know that he won't rush. So

1370
01:11:31,920 --> 01:11:34,679
Speaker 1: they create a lot of one on one matchups through

1371
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,160
Speaker 1: their front looks and their use of stunts. Greg tell

1372
01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:40,640
Speaker 1: us about the show. You must have extensive breakdowns on

1373
01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:43,200
Speaker 1: both the Tennessee Kansas City game and the Green Bay

1374
01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:46,280
Speaker 1: San Francisco game. Right. Well, the great thing, Murph is

1375
01:11:46,280 --> 01:11:47,880
Speaker 1: when we get to this point in the season, we

1376
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,920
Speaker 1: have two full segments on each game and so obviously

1377
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:53,320
Speaker 1: we pick what we'd like to show. You can't show

1378
01:11:53,439 --> 01:11:57,000
Speaker 1: everything because there's so many elements to a game. But yeah,

1379
01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:59,680
Speaker 1: these shows are always exciting for us because we can

1380
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:02,760
Speaker 1: kind to drill down really a little more deeply. And

1381
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:04,800
Speaker 1: uh and obviously then we get to the Super Bowl

1382
01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:07,400
Speaker 1: where it's it's a half hour show for one game,

1383
01:12:07,439 --> 01:12:09,479
Speaker 1: and that's really a lot of fun. Yeah. Yeah, are

1384
01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:11,840
Speaker 1: you thinking, are you not giving the nod to both

1385
01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:14,000
Speaker 1: favorites in this one, both home teams? You kind of

1386
01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:17,200
Speaker 1: give the edge too. Well, we did pick the games

1387
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:19,560
Speaker 1: on the show, Steve, so you'll have to watch the

1388
01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,240
Speaker 1: show to find that out. We can watch the show.

1389
01:12:22,439 --> 01:12:25,759
Speaker 1: We'll watch the show tomorrow morning eight thirty am on ESPN.

1390
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:29,679
Speaker 1: Two Sunday four am and six thirty am on ESPN. Greig,

1391
01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:31,720
Speaker 1: thanks for this every great weekend. We'll talk next week.

1392
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:35,040
Speaker 1: Appreciate it, guys, Thanks so much. Thanks Greg Great Cosal

1393
01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:39,360
Speaker 1: executive producer analysts of NFL Matchup on ESPN. Senior producer

1394
01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:41,439
Speaker 1: in NFL Films had some good things to say about

1395
01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:45,080
Speaker 1: Steve Sable there too. But boy, those guys they are

1396
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:47,040
Speaker 1: so into it. As he said, they've only got two

1397
01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:49,000
Speaker 1: games to prepare for this week. They'll have one game

1398
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:51,200
Speaker 1: super Bowl week to get ready for. They're all over

1399
01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:53,479
Speaker 1: these games. Yeah, I mean, although you can't find a

1400
01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:56,559
Speaker 1: better analysis of either game than on their show. It's

1401
01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:59,320
Speaker 1: interesting too because forty years and we talked about it

1402
01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:01,280
Speaker 1: at the top of that segment. You know, they've been

1403
01:13:01,320 --> 01:13:04,200
Speaker 1: doing that since nineteen to eighty four, the early eighties,

1404
01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:07,240
Speaker 1: when nobody even knew what All twenty two was. Now

1405
01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:11,439
Speaker 1: everybody does it, you know, And and they got gave

1406
01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:13,640
Speaker 1: people for the first time a glimpse as to what

1407
01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:17,519
Speaker 1: it means to study the game and understand concepts and

1408
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:20,479
Speaker 1: how they meshed together. And you know, they've done it

1409
01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:23,760
Speaker 1: so well for so long, and they really spawned a

1410
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:27,280
Speaker 1: genre of television programming, right, I mean now you've even

1411
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, entire businesses are spawned off film study. Um

1412
01:13:32,520 --> 01:13:35,599
Speaker 1: so it's it's been around a long time and it's

1413
01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:39,320
Speaker 1: still a very good program. And Greg and now Matt Bowen, Uh,

1414
01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:41,080
Speaker 1: they do a great job of breaking all that time.

1415
01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:43,760
Speaker 1: He has been NFL matchup. Hey, we got a Twitter

1416
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:46,000
Speaker 1: poll today. We didn't even address it yet, did we

1417
01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,800
Speaker 1: even tell them what it was? And we want to

1418
01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:52,479
Speaker 1: talk about baseball got in the way. The Twitter poll today.

1419
01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:55,400
Speaker 1: It deals with the games this week and which Super

1420
01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:58,360
Speaker 1: Bowl matchup you want to see? And why give us

1421
01:13:58,400 --> 01:14:01,439
Speaker 1: a call eight fifty toll free one eight eight eight

1422
01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:06,320

1423
01:14:06,360 --> 01:14:08,280
Speaker 1: it's got a thousand votes in already on the poll,

1424
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:11,519
Speaker 1: which says something about our radio oneas doesn't it people

1425
01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:14,439
Speaker 1: on the radio aren't paying attention to Twitter? Makes sense?

1426
01:14:14,840 --> 01:14:18,000
Speaker 1: For forty four percent of you say the Chiefs and

1427
01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:21,519
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers are what you want. Thirty nine

1428
01:14:21,560 --> 01:14:23,880
Speaker 1: percent say the Chiefs and the Packers pretty close. That's

1429
01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:26,439
Speaker 1: why I would vote. For nine percent say the Titans

1430
01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:29,200
Speaker 1: and the forty nine ers. Seven percent say the Titans

1431
01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:31,680

1434
01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:39,760
Speaker 1: why give us a call to discuss? Got tweets to

1436

Speaker 1: coming up when we return One Bills Live presented by

1437
01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:46,760
Speaker 1: Klada Health from the Seneca Studio in Orchard Park. This

1438
01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:59,519
Speaker 1: is Buffalo Bills Radio. Welcome back. One Bial's live John

1439
01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:02,120
Speaker 1: Murphy's Steve Tasker here until three o'clock Today. We've got

1440
01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:04,240
Speaker 1: the guys coming up a two in studio with us.

1441
01:15:04,520 --> 01:15:06,800
Speaker 1: Tyler Dunn covers the NFL. He wrote a lot of

1442
01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:08,519
Speaker 1: good things, and we'll talk to him about some of

1443
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:11,680
Speaker 1: his recent posts for Bleacher Report. Tyler Dunn will join

1444
01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 1: us at two o'clock. Yes, sir, should we make up

1445
01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:16,479
Speaker 1: for lost time on the Twitter poll? Yes, because we

1446
01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:20,080
Speaker 1: completely blew it off left in hand what we were thinking.

1447
01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:22,080
Speaker 1: By the way, the phone lines are open, wide open

1448
01:15:22,120 --> 01:15:24,120
Speaker 1: if you have something to say. Which Super Bowl matchup

1449
01:15:24,160 --> 01:15:25,720
Speaker 1: do you want? I know what I want. I want

1450
01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:28,600
Speaker 1: to see Kansas City in Green Bay. Yes, I'm a

1451
01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:31,560
Speaker 1: I'm a traditionalist. I want to see a rematch of

1452
01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:33,400
Speaker 1: the first ever Super Bowl. Yeah. I think it'll be

1453
01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:36,880
Speaker 1: cool now the look. I think the Chiefs have been

1454
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:39,559
Speaker 1: probably the best team in football for a couple of years.

1455
01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:41,840
Speaker 1: They got hung up in the AFC Championship Game a

1456
01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:44,439
Speaker 1: year ago by and losing to New England. And I

1457
01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 1: always like Aaron Rodgers. I respect Aaron Rodgers. I think

1458
01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:49,160
Speaker 1: that would be a heck of a game. I appreciate

1459
01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:52,599
Speaker 1: the Niners. I just think Packers are a better team.

1460
01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:54,599
Speaker 1: So I would look forward to that game. The Packers

1461
01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:57,040
Speaker 1: and the and the Kansas City Chiefs. I'll say this,

1462
01:15:57,160 --> 01:15:59,000
Speaker 1: and I we're in the other conference, and we talk about,

1463
01:15:59,080 --> 01:16:01,320
Speaker 1: you know, the Bills all the time. I could not

1464
01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:03,640
Speaker 1: imagine a team going thirteen and three more under the

1465
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:05,680
Speaker 1: radar than the Green Bay Packers right now on our

1466
01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:08,840
Speaker 1: my radar anyway, right, I mean, because you see the

1467
01:16:08,920 --> 01:16:11,840
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers and they're back on top, and they're

1468
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,720
Speaker 1: you know, they're they went a long time before losing, right,

1469
01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:16,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the Niners went away. They were

1470
01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:20,120
Speaker 1: the last undefeated team maybe or something. But anyway, you know,

1471
01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:23,840
Speaker 1: the Packers are just completely off the radar, and here

1472
01:16:23,880 --> 01:16:27,160
Speaker 1: they are in the NFC Championship Game, winning thirteen games,

1473
01:16:27,400 --> 01:16:30,599
Speaker 1: thirteen and three in the regular season, now fourteen and three,

1474
01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:34,720
Speaker 1: both these clubs. I'm surprised. I just I don't know how.

1475
01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,479
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I can't be surprised. I got Aaron Rodgers

1476
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:38,880
Speaker 1: in their quarterback, but man, oh man, I don't know

1477
01:16:38,880 --> 01:16:43,280
Speaker 1: if I was. I've been pulling for a Chiefs Niners

1478
01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:47,200
Speaker 1: super Bowl, but only because the Green Bay Packers weren't

1479
01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:48,960
Speaker 1: even on my I had trouble remember they were in

1480
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:51,240
Speaker 1: the playoffs. I'm here, they were the number two seed.

1481
01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:55,680
Speaker 1: So it's been a really strange season for that, I

1482
01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 1: think for me anyway, not being keeping track of those

1483
01:16:58,040 --> 01:16:59,840
Speaker 1: top teams, particularly in the other company. And I think

1484
01:16:59,880 --> 01:17:02,040
Speaker 1: the Packers have a good defense too, And I just

1485
01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:04,599
Speaker 1: looked it up there, eighteenth ranked in defense. There here's

1486
01:17:04,640 --> 01:17:09,880
Speaker 1: an interesting stat I didn't memorize. They are plus twelve

1487
01:17:10,040 --> 01:17:13,400
Speaker 1: in turnover takeaway takeaway turnover. That's a huge different. It's huge,

1488
01:17:14,320 --> 01:17:17,120
Speaker 1: by far, the biggest margin of any of the form

1489
01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:19,640
Speaker 1: remaining playoff games. They're third in the NFL. And the

1490
01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:23,400
Speaker 1: percentage of interceptions, I think they're pretty good. I think

1491
01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:27,320
Speaker 1: they're really good on defense. I'm sorry, Yeah, yeah, percent

1492
01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:30,599
Speaker 1: at interception they are third in the NFL. They take

1493
01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:33,400
Speaker 1: the ball away and they're pretty opportunistic defense. I think

1494
01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:36,439
Speaker 1: they can do it with Aaron Rodgers much more experience

1495
01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:38,880
Speaker 1: than Jimmy Garoppolo. I think he'll make big plays. I

1496
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:40,640
Speaker 1: think it's it'll be a good matchup to see the

1497
01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:42,600
Speaker 1: Packers play the Chiefs. I know we've ignored him, we

1498
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:46,000
Speaker 1: all have. Yeah, it's it's been easy to do. But

1499
01:17:47,000 --> 01:17:49,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm ready to go down that road.

1500
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:53,439
Speaker 1: I really, I really admire what the forty nine Ers

1501
01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:55,080
Speaker 1: look like. And I guess that's what I'm saying. I mean,

1502
01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:57,439
Speaker 1: I don't know that much about him. I know Jimmy Garoppolo,

1503
01:17:57,439 --> 01:17:59,840
Speaker 1: and I Kyle Shanahan has been bounced around. He's been

1504
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:04,640
Speaker 1: calling plays for different teams for a long time. And

1505
01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:08,560
Speaker 1: now and I granted he got the forty nine er

1506
01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:11,400
Speaker 1: job and all of a sudden, you know, they got

1507
01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:13,519
Speaker 1: all these high draft picks and they're good. Now you

1508
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:15,720
Speaker 1: can say, well, yeah, he got the most talented team

1509
01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:20,479
Speaker 1: in the league. Maybe, but still maybe. Really I'm I'm

1510
01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:23,519
Speaker 1: thinking that the Niners may be just too tough to beat.

1511
01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:26,720
Speaker 1: I'm not thinking that it's all that difficult for the

1512
01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:29,200
Speaker 1: Packers to go west and win on the road out there.

1513
01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:33,479
Speaker 1: I'm not. I don't think Levi Stadium is all that

1514
01:18:33,600 --> 01:18:35,600
Speaker 1: tough a place to play. But I know this, the

1515
01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:37,400
Speaker 1: forty nine is are a tough team to play against.

1516
01:18:37,479 --> 01:18:39,600
Speaker 1: That defense is for real, and they proved it in

1517
01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:41,360
Speaker 1: the first matchup with these guys, and I think that's

1518
01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:43,160
Speaker 1: going to carry over. One of the best things, one

1519
01:18:43,160 --> 01:18:44,880
Speaker 1: of the things I like the best about the Niners

1520
01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:47,000
Speaker 1: is their general manager, John Lynch. I think he is

1521
01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:50,000
Speaker 1: an excellent GM. I know, I met him a couple

1522
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:52,799
Speaker 1: of times. He's a great guy, but just a logical

1523
01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:55,640
Speaker 1: thinker and kind of a straightforward guy. I think he

1524
01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:57,960
Speaker 1: might be the main reason if I were going to

1525
01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:00,200
Speaker 1: root for the Niners, he'd probably be the reason why

1526
01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:02,640
Speaker 1: I really do. Yeah, I kind of agree with you.

1527
01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:06,240
Speaker 1: He seems to be like, I don't know what you

1528
01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:08,760
Speaker 1: call a pragmatist or it's just listen, we're not gonna do.

1529
01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:11,639
Speaker 1: You get these general managers and all of us here

1530
01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:14,040
Speaker 1: and particularly in the world we make fun of so much,

1531
01:19:14,080 --> 01:19:16,479
Speaker 1: the Twitter world and stuff. Everybody overthinks this, and they

1532
01:19:16,520 --> 01:19:18,640
Speaker 1: see conspiracies here and they go there, you know, and

1533
01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:20,400
Speaker 1: there to get in there. They're thinking this, so we

1534
01:19:20,439 --> 01:19:22,280
Speaker 1: should do this and that. You know, he just over

1535
01:19:22,760 --> 01:19:27,920
Speaker 1: He just doesn't overthink anything. He makes great decisions. A

1536
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:31,320
Speaker 1: lot of his decisions seem so obvious after the fact

1537
01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:34,960
Speaker 1: because they're successful anything, of course, and you get there.

1538
01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:37,600
Speaker 1: I think as a GM by not overthinking stuff, and

1539
01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:41,920
Speaker 1: he is, he's the perfect guy for that. And forget

1540
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:44,160
Speaker 1: what anybody else says about what you're doing or whatever.

1541
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:46,320
Speaker 1: Just do what makes a lot of sense and that's

1542
01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:48,439
Speaker 1: and they've been pretty successful thus far. I tell you

1543
01:19:48,479 --> 01:19:50,920
Speaker 1: my favorite John Lynch story, really the most exposure I

1544
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:53,040
Speaker 1: ever had to him. His playing career is over. Had

1545
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:57,200
Speaker 1: a great career with Tampa Bay, mostly right, and he's

1546
01:19:57,240 --> 01:20:00,040
Speaker 1: doing a broadcasting now in twenty twelve the bill. I

1547
01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:02,280
Speaker 1: also had a game in Toronto on a Sunday, and

1548
01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:05,799
Speaker 1: I'm looking it up here. They played Seattle on December sixteenth,

1549
01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:07,960
Speaker 1: two days before that. John Lynch, I don't know who

1550
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:10,599
Speaker 1: he's working with. He's here. Were the Fox crew doing

1551
01:20:10,680 --> 01:20:12,880
Speaker 1: the production meeting stuff, and of course we're doing the

1552
01:20:12,960 --> 01:20:15,360
Speaker 1: radio show in the old studio, just the radio show,

1553
01:20:15,640 --> 01:20:17,200
Speaker 1: and I convince John Lynch to come out and do

1554
01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:21,080
Speaker 1: the show. Friday afternoon, December fourteenth, twenty twelve, TV going

1555
01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:23,760
Speaker 1: on and they were taping a segment. It was awful, Steve.

1556
01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:27,040
Speaker 1: It was the Sandy Hook, Connecticut school shooting. Goodness. Yeah,

1557
01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:28,920
Speaker 1: John Lynch and I sat in there and watched the

1558
01:20:29,040 --> 01:20:30,519
Speaker 1: coverage of that for like an hour and a half.

1559
01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:33,000
Speaker 1: Neither one of us had much to say. We're both like,

1560
01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:36,320
Speaker 1: you know, stunned. And it struck me after the fact

1561
01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:38,840
Speaker 1: because I wasn't thinking about that day we did the interview,

1562
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,439
Speaker 1: We got through it, but after that I thought, that's

1563
01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:43,720
Speaker 1: a real guy. He just was like a regular guy

1564
01:20:43,840 --> 01:20:46,120
Speaker 1: stunned by what was going on at Sandy Hook, Connecticut.

1565
01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:48,680
Speaker 1: It was amazing and he was he had the right

1566
01:20:48,960 --> 01:20:51,840
Speaker 1: temperament to kind of process what we were watching on TV.

1567
01:20:51,960 --> 01:20:54,439
Speaker 1: It just impressed me. That's my John Lynch story. Yeah,

1568
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:56,680
Speaker 1: and has nothing to do with the forty nine ers.

1569
01:20:59,080 --> 01:21:01,720
Speaker 1: It was a great player, yeah, and has been a

1570
01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:05,400
Speaker 1: great GMS thus far, early in his career, and a

1571
01:21:05,479 --> 01:21:09,280
Speaker 1: lot of people when he got that job, you know,

1572
01:21:10,240 --> 01:21:12,360
Speaker 1: kind of raised some eyebrows and people are looking down

1573
01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:14,439
Speaker 1: their nose as he's a four, what's he gonna do?

1574
01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:16,280
Speaker 1: But you know what, it was a really good hire

1575
01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:19,680
Speaker 1: in retrospect, and he's done well. So he's a good guy. Yeah.

1576
01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:21,400
Speaker 1: I think he has too. I think he's a genuine guy.

1577
01:21:21,520 --> 01:21:24,120
Speaker 1: Night Like I always say that the acid test is

1578
01:21:24,160 --> 01:21:27,439
Speaker 1: what his former teammates think about him, And yeah, and

1579
01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:29,439
Speaker 1: you guys I talked to really liked him. I thought

1580
01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:31,240
Speaker 1: he was a great pro and a great great teammate.

1581
01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:33,560
Speaker 1: But which Super Bowl matchup do you want? Who do

1582
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:35,080
Speaker 1: you want to see? Give us a call? Eight oh

1583
01:21:35,120 --> 01:21:38,280
Speaker 1: three fifty toll free one eight eight eight five fifty

1584
01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 1: two five fifty. Let's go to the tweet sheet for

1585
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:43,080
Speaker 1: some guidance. The tweet sheet brought to you by Corrigan

1586
01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:46,120
Speaker 1: Moving Systems, the official movers of the Buffalo Bills. Why

1587
01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:48,320
Speaker 1: don't you start us software? All right? From Tiffany, she says,

1588
01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:50,080
Speaker 1: Mahomes is fun to watch. I'd like to see him

1589
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:52,760
Speaker 1: go up against the Niners defensive front. Bosa has been

1590
01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:54,519
Speaker 1: a beast this year. Sadly, I wonder if we had

1591
01:21:54,560 --> 01:21:56,960
Speaker 1: beaten the Texans, could we have taken out the Chiefs.

1592
01:21:57,000 --> 01:21:58,360
Speaker 1: I think we could have given him a run for

1593
01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:01,560
Speaker 1: their money. There's that's the last time we can read that.

1594
01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:03,720
Speaker 1: We're after cut the last hour of this because as

1595
01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:05,800
Speaker 1: a Wednesday of next week when we come back, we're

1596
01:22:05,800 --> 01:22:08,679
Speaker 1: not dealing with We're not talking about the Houston lawsuit anymore.

1597
01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:11,200
Speaker 1: Thank It's a good rule, right, It's good rule. It's nice.

1598
01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:14,679
Speaker 1: We gotta move on. We'll see from Brent, Kansas City

1599
01:22:14,760 --> 01:22:17,400
Speaker 1: versus Green Bay rematch at the first Super Bowl. Green

1600
01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:19,960
Speaker 1: Bay is my other team besides the Bills, and I

1601
01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:22,400
Speaker 1: can bet my one friend who's other team besides Buffalo

1602
01:22:22,479 --> 01:22:26,120
Speaker 1: is Kansas City. Go Packers. Okay, there's a rooting interest,

1603
01:22:26,640 --> 01:22:30,759
Speaker 1: right yep from Joe. He says, the one hundredth anniversity

1604
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:33,000
Speaker 1: the NFL fort Super Bowl Chiefs versus Packers. What a

1605
01:22:33,040 --> 01:22:35,880
Speaker 1: way to celebrate one hundredth anniversary of the NFL with

1606
01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:38,000
Speaker 1: the same teams that played in the very first Super Bowl,

1607
01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:42,519
Speaker 1: but this time the Chiefs win. Okay, go, Yeah, I

1608
01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:45,759
Speaker 1: said that. I see that. I gotta tell you. Until

1609
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:47,200
Speaker 1: you just said it a minute ago, I had not

1610
01:22:48,080 --> 01:22:50,200
Speaker 1: maybe i'd heard somebody say it, or no, I hadn't

1611
01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:52,960
Speaker 1: heard anybody mentioned that. But you're right, we first super Bowl.

1612
01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:57,760
Speaker 1: I hadn't even put that together. Oh yeah, and uh yeah,

1613
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:01,559
Speaker 1: I mean you know, it was teen January of sixty seven.

1614
01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:03,400
Speaker 1: It was a long time ago, but it was an

1615
01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:07,560
Speaker 1: important game. Yeah yeah. Elijah Pitts, former Buffalo, score the

1616
01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:10,080
Speaker 1: first rushing touchdown Super Bowl history. I think Max McGee

1617
01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:13,799
Speaker 1: was the MVP. Yea Eli scored the first rushing touchdown

1618
01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:16,200
Speaker 1: in Super Bowl history and McGee caught the first touchdown

1619
01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:18,840
Speaker 1: pass and scored the first touchdown. But but Eli was

1620
01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:22,200
Speaker 1: the first guy to run one in nice and the

1621
01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:24,639
Speaker 1: Bills were went away and you want to talk about regrets.

1622
01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:26,479
Speaker 1: The Bills were went away from beating in that game.

1623
01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:28,680
Speaker 1: They lost to Kent City in the ARAEL Championship game.

1624
01:23:29,040 --> 01:23:31,120
Speaker 1: Here's a tweet from Jack. I want to see if

1625
01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:34,320
Speaker 1: Andy Reid can win one finally, and San Francisco as

1626
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:36,920
Speaker 1: an excellent defense and fun offense, so I think they

1627
01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:39,080
Speaker 1: could be a good obstacle for Mahomes and the Chiefs.

1628
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:41,040
Speaker 1: I have family in the Bay Area, so I've always

1629
01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:43,080
Speaker 1: had a soft spot for the forty nine ers. That

1630
01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:46,120
Speaker 1: would be the sexiest matchup for my money. Can I

1631
01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:48,600
Speaker 1: bring this up, which I think is not going to

1632
01:23:48,640 --> 01:23:52,080
Speaker 1: be popular even in this building. I don't care about

1633
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:55,720
Speaker 1: Andy Reid. I really don't. Um he hasn't won a

1634
01:23:55,840 --> 01:23:58,599
Speaker 1: championship yet. He's, you know, a long time coach, He's

1635
01:23:58,600 --> 01:24:00,800
Speaker 1: won a lot of games. I don't know that he

1636
01:24:01,000 --> 01:24:03,840
Speaker 1: belongs in the conversation with the great coaches in the game.

1637
01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:05,880
Speaker 1: And I don't know that a win in the Super

1638
01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:09,000
Speaker 1: Bowl and a couple of weeks would even put him

1639
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 1: in that conversation. He's been good. He's been good. Is

1640
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:16,639
Speaker 1: he great? I don't think so? Not yet anyway. Yeah, Yeah,

1641
01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:18,880
Speaker 1: I'm just yeah, sure, you can think. I obviously have

1642
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:22,240
Speaker 1: covered his teams when he was coaching, both with Philly

1643
01:24:22,360 --> 01:24:26,559
Speaker 1: and with the Kansas City Chiefs, and I like him

1644
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:28,320
Speaker 1: a lot. I got a lot of respect for what

1645
01:24:28,439 --> 01:24:29,800
Speaker 1: he does and the kind of person he is, the

1646
01:24:29,880 --> 01:24:32,120
Speaker 1: kind of teams he can put together. Certainly, his offensive

1647
01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 1: mind is as good as it's ever been, and as

1648
01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:37,560
Speaker 1: good as anybody in the league right now. He is.

1649
01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:42,760
Speaker 1: He's been innovative. He saw something in that quarterback that

1650
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:44,920
Speaker 1: made him trade up to get the guy when everybody

1651
01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:47,720
Speaker 1: else was kind of like eh. And he's gotten the

1652
01:24:47,760 --> 01:24:50,519
Speaker 1: most out of him. He took a Philly franchise that

1653
01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:53,120
Speaker 1: and I'll say this too, and back in Philly, you

1654
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,600
Speaker 1: think back all those years ago, which is now a

1655
01:24:55,680 --> 01:25:00,439
Speaker 1: couple of decades, he took over a Philadelphia Eagles franchise,

1656
01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:04,479
Speaker 1: and I'm not exaggerating. That franchise was a laughing stock

1657
01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:09,080
Speaker 1: when he got there, an absolute laughing stock when he

1658
01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:11,639
Speaker 1: took over. And the year he got there, they picked

1659
01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:14,400
Speaker 1: Donovan McNabb and they ended up going to four straight

1660
01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:16,960
Speaker 1: NFC championship games, finally made it to one Super Bowl

1661
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:20,200
Speaker 1: where they lost, and went on to a lot of

1662
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,200
Speaker 1: very big, successful seasons with him as head coach. He

1663
01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:27,200
Speaker 1: turned the Philadelphia Eagles from a laughing stock into a

1664
01:25:27,320 --> 01:25:29,800
Speaker 1: super Bowl contender, and then he has gone and done

1665
01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:31,880
Speaker 1: the same thing with the Kansas City Chiefs. They weren't

1666
01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:34,519
Speaker 1: a laughing stock and they were far from it, but

1667
01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:38,920
Speaker 1: he has built both those clubs into championship contenders. Now

1668
01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:40,640
Speaker 1: you can say a little bit about him and the

1669
01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:42,880
Speaker 1: same breath, you can look back into decades and say,

1670
01:25:42,880 --> 01:25:45,519
Speaker 1: it's a little bit like Marty Schottenheimer, who had a

1671
01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:47,360
Speaker 1: lot of great success, a lot of teams that were

1672
01:25:47,400 --> 01:25:49,559
Speaker 1: really good in the regular season could not get there.

1673
01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:52,760
Speaker 1: But I think Andy Reid is a notch ahead of

1674
01:25:52,800 --> 01:25:55,080
Speaker 1: where Marty was, just for the fact that he's been

1675
01:25:55,120 --> 01:25:58,080
Speaker 1: to one super Bowl and has done it with a

1676
01:25:58,120 --> 01:26:01,519
Speaker 1: couple of teams as Marty did. Um, So, I you're right.

1677
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:05,000
Speaker 1: Until he wins a big game like that, he's gonna

1678
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:07,920
Speaker 1: be a little different, different, have a different conversation about him.

1679
01:26:08,360 --> 01:26:12,000
Speaker 1: But um, I have to really respect what he's been

1680
01:26:12,040 --> 01:26:13,679
Speaker 1: able to do as a head coach in the NFL

1681
01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:17,040
Speaker 1: over the years. Okay, you think more highly of them

1682
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:18,840
Speaker 1: than I do, But that's okay, I get it. We

1683
01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:20,479
Speaker 1: got a break, We're coming back with more. Let us

1684
01:26:20,520 --> 01:26:21,599
Speaker 1: know what you think? Who do you want the super

1685
01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:23,120
Speaker 1: Bowl matchup to be? Who do you want in the

1686
01:26:23,160 --> 01:26:24,840
Speaker 1: Big Game in a couple of weeks? In other words,

1687
01:26:24,840 --> 01:26:26,280
Speaker 1: who do you want to win? This Sunday, give us

1688
01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:28,680
Speaker 1: a call. It's One Bill's Live, presented by Kalidah Health

1689
01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:31,280
Speaker 1: from the Seneca Studio in Archer Park. This is Buffalo

1690
01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:42,479
Speaker 1: Bill's Radio. Another thing about the ass road, people think

1691
01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:44,599
Speaker 1: we're mad. I'm not mad at you. No, I can't

1692
01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:46,920
Speaker 1: help you wrong. You're wrong. I have mad. You're mad.

1693
01:26:46,920 --> 01:26:48,800
Speaker 1: If you're looking at the timeline, people have been saying

1694
01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:51,000
Speaker 1: we hate each other. Now, yeah, but like their parents

1695
01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:54,599
Speaker 1: are fighting, and yeah, like we can't stand to see

1696
01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:57,400
Speaker 1: the parents fighting or two uncles or war with each other.

1697
01:26:57,960 --> 01:27:00,519
Speaker 1: Think we get Murph and Uncle Steve, or we heiting

1698
01:27:00,560 --> 01:27:03,639
Speaker 1: again some liquid sustenance, the fight might even be better.

1699
01:27:03,720 --> 01:27:06,000
Speaker 1: I think, then it might get scary. What I mean,

1700
01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:08,719
Speaker 1: we need some some tumblers with one big ice cube

1701
01:27:08,760 --> 01:27:10,720
Speaker 1: in them and some brown water. That's what we need.

1702
01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:14,160
Speaker 1: Then it gets good. Where are you watching the games Sunday, Steve?

1703
01:27:14,439 --> 01:27:17,280
Speaker 1: What's your plan? Um? I don't have a plan in place.

1704
01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:20,760
Speaker 1: I always have a fallback. Um, we have a house,

1705
01:27:20,960 --> 01:27:23,360
Speaker 1: We have that house with the it's a one story house,

1706
01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:25,720
Speaker 1: but it has a walkout basement, right yeah, And in

1707
01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:28,479
Speaker 1: the basement we got a big room that gets really dark.

1708
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:30,280
Speaker 1: And so as a response to that, I put this

1709
01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:32,960
Speaker 1: projector TV up there. So we've got I've got a

1710
01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:35,120
Speaker 1: screen on my thing. It's like a movie theater. So

1711
01:27:35,760 --> 01:27:38,960
Speaker 1: that's where I watch games. If if that's my fallback,

1712
01:27:39,360 --> 01:27:41,720
Speaker 1: and what's is the problem? Is I do that a lot.

1713
01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:44,880
Speaker 1: It's me and vern my dog, So that's it. Maybe

1714
01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:46,800
Speaker 1: you can get the family together and play, you know,

1715
01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:50,000
Speaker 1: some kind of tribula game, trivia pursuit or the bills

1716
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:52,479
Speaker 1: aren't playing, so it's I know, I'm pretty harmless, right

1717
01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:54,519
Speaker 1: you know. So yeah, I'm thinking about having some family

1718
01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:56,080
Speaker 1: over to watch a game. But I want to watch

1719
01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:57,799
Speaker 1: a game, but I'm not going to get emotionally invested

1720
01:27:57,840 --> 01:27:59,160
Speaker 1: in it, I know, you know what. I'm totally with

1721
01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:02,360
Speaker 1: you on that. And if conversation takes me elsewhere, if

1722
01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:04,200
Speaker 1: we have a people over, that's fine. These games they

1723
01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:06,559
Speaker 1: can be on the background for a bit. I'll watch them,

1724
01:28:06,680 --> 01:28:08,880
Speaker 1: but I'll have a conversation about something, you know what

1725
01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:10,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll get dragged away by a conversation or

1726
01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:13,840
Speaker 1: the grandkids or whatever. And yeah, and I feel bad.

1727
01:28:13,880 --> 01:28:15,680
Speaker 1: It's a much better way to watch them at It's

1728
01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:17,800
Speaker 1: a long day too, if you're watching games back to

1729
01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:19,559
Speaker 1: back like that. I mean, what times it start three

1730
01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:22,320
Speaker 1: h five and the other'll be there till times the

1731
01:28:22,360 --> 01:28:25,040
Speaker 1: other one sixty, the other one starts at six forty. Yeah,

1732
01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:27,360
Speaker 1: you'll be there till you know, from three o'clock until

1733
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:29,439
Speaker 1: ten thirty at night. It's a long time to watch

1734
01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:31,800
Speaker 1: two games. Take a couple of phone calls here, let's

1735
01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:34,240
Speaker 1: go to Ken in Medinah. Ken, go ahead, you're on

1736
01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:37,080
Speaker 1: the air. Hi there, Johnna, Steve, how are you guys

1737
01:28:37,120 --> 01:28:40,880
Speaker 1: doing good? Good? Good? Uh? John? And he kind of

1738
01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:44,960
Speaker 1: took the thunderway there. I know that Kansas City want

1739
01:28:45,040 --> 01:28:48,320
Speaker 1: to the first Super Bowl there and the Bills lost

1740
01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:52,160
Speaker 1: to him in the AFL Championship. Yeah, and after they've

1741
01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:54,840
Speaker 1: won the championship in sixty four sixty five, I'd like

1742
01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:57,160
Speaker 1: to see Kansas City in San Francisco in there. And

1743
01:28:57,760 --> 01:29:00,519
Speaker 1: and this I believe it is the first time Kansas

1744
01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:02,240
Speaker 1: City has been back to the Super Bowl. Is that correct?

1745
01:29:02,400 --> 01:29:05,360
Speaker 1: If they win? Yes, No, they won a super Bowl

1746
01:29:05,439 --> 01:29:08,200
Speaker 1: Super Bowl four. They won oh they did. Oh that's right.

1747
01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:11,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I'm sorry. Since yeah, since super Bowl

1748
01:29:11,120 --> 01:29:12,840
Speaker 1: four that they won. That's the first time. Then I

1749
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:15,200
Speaker 1: just like thank Kansas City to get in there and

1750
01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:17,640
Speaker 1: win one. I'd just like the team, that's all. All right.

1751
01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:20,800
Speaker 1: Wait wait, wait, let me think this. So they won

1752
01:29:20,920 --> 01:29:23,800
Speaker 1: super Bowl four. I think it was four. It is

1753
01:29:23,920 --> 01:29:28,639
Speaker 1: four or five. This is super Bowl fifty four. Yeah, yeah,

1754
01:29:28,760 --> 01:29:31,040
Speaker 1: that's right. There you go, fifty that's what I heard. Then,

1755
01:29:31,080 --> 01:29:33,760
Speaker 1: that's been fifty years. Fifty years since they won their

1756
01:29:33,800 --> 01:29:35,760
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. You know. I was at the Thanks for

1757
01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:38,120
Speaker 1: Colin Ken. I went as a kid, as a nine

1758
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:41,000
Speaker 1: year old. I went to the the game at or

1759
01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:43,360
Speaker 1: Memorial Stadium, the AFL Championship. Nice. I think it was

1760
01:29:43,400 --> 01:29:47,599
Speaker 1: New Year's Day, January first, nineteen sixty seven. And I'll

1761
01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:48,960
Speaker 1: say this, and we look at it and you look

1762
01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:51,160
Speaker 1: at it now and you look back at it and

1763
01:29:51,200 --> 01:29:52,560
Speaker 1: you think, oh, they missed a chance to go to

1764
01:29:52,600 --> 01:29:54,760
Speaker 1: the first Super Bowl. It wasn't not anybody to radar

1765
01:29:54,840 --> 01:29:57,400
Speaker 1: back then. It was the AFL Championship that was important

1766
01:29:57,439 --> 01:30:00,240
Speaker 1: that day. Oh if they win, they get another game, Okay, fine,

1767
01:30:00,400 --> 01:30:02,439
Speaker 1: that's win the AFL Championship. That was what. I was

1768
01:30:02,479 --> 01:30:05,240
Speaker 1: a nine year old. So my former teammate, Hall of

1769
01:30:05,320 --> 01:30:10,760
Speaker 1: Fame receiver James Lofton, he said he and his dad

1770
01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:15,120
Speaker 1: walked up to the coliseum on the game, right before

1771
01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:17,640
Speaker 1: the game. They just bought a ticket and walked in,

1772
01:30:17,800 --> 01:30:19,560
Speaker 1: and we're at Super Bowl number one. James is a

1773
01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:22,720
Speaker 1: little kid, and there he was, he was, he was

1774
01:30:22,760 --> 01:30:24,400
Speaker 1: in there with it, and they just walked up, you know,

1775
01:30:24,439 --> 01:30:26,479
Speaker 1: the tickets because they didn't sell it's the only one

1776
01:30:26,520 --> 01:30:28,320
Speaker 1: that hasn't sold out. Yeah, and they didn't sell it out,

1777
01:30:28,400 --> 01:30:30,160
Speaker 1: and he just he and his dad and they just

1778

1780
01:30:34,400 --> 01:30:37,080

1782
01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:46,600
Speaker 1: who I rather see in the Super Bowl? Um, my

1783
01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:50,120
Speaker 1: answer is I rather see Casey in San Francisco because

1784
01:30:50,200 --> 01:30:53,439
Speaker 1: I really think that will be a really great matchup

1785
01:30:53,479 --> 01:30:56,960
Speaker 1: between those two teams, you know, because with you know,

1786
01:30:57,200 --> 01:31:00,639
Speaker 1: Pat Pat Pat Mahomes and that high power at offense

1787
01:31:01,439 --> 01:31:04,879
Speaker 1: versus San Francisco, and San Francisco's got a killer defense.

1788
01:31:05,400 --> 01:31:08,080
Speaker 1: I would love to see that matchup. Do you care,

1789
01:31:08,360 --> 01:31:12,439
Speaker 1: Bobby if the if the score is like like the

1790

01:31:15,920 --> 01:31:18,200
Speaker 1: two years ago where it was fifty five fifty one.

1792
01:31:18,280 --> 01:31:20,040
Speaker 1: Do you care if it's fifty five fifty one? Or

1793
01:31:20,080 --> 01:31:23,600
Speaker 1: do you or a ten six your thriller? Do you

1799
01:31:40,400 --> 01:31:42,720
Speaker 1: two different teams in it, just as long as it's

1800
01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:47,160

01:31:49,880 --> 01:31:56,000
Speaker 1: on the air. Hey it's Dan by the way. Sorry Dan, Sorry, Dan, No,

1803
01:31:56,280 --> 01:31:58,600
Speaker 1: it's okay. Sorry. I mean, I know that's easy to

1804
01:31:58,920 --> 01:32:02,320
Speaker 1: screw up, but um hey, I'm with you, Murph, I'm

1805
01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:05,880
Speaker 1: I'm san Fran and Casey and I'll tell you why

1806
01:32:06,360 --> 01:32:08,280
Speaker 1: I want Green Bay in Kansas City. But go ahead.

1807
01:32:09,680 --> 01:32:12,000
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, say I would prefer to see green Bay

1808
01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:16,560
Speaker 1: in there. Oh, I'm sorry, I thought it was the

1809
01:32:16,600 --> 01:32:19,280
Speaker 1: other way, But go ahead, don't don't that Why do

1810
01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:23,160
Speaker 1: you want to see San Francisco Kansas City? Go ahead? Okay?

1811
01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:26,280
Speaker 1: So the reason I say that is because I think

1812
01:32:26,320 --> 01:32:29,040
Speaker 1: Green Bay secondary is suspect and I think that San

1813
01:32:29,160 --> 01:32:34,160
Speaker 1: Frans gonna capitalize on that. Again. And in in terms

1814
01:32:34,320 --> 01:32:39,240
Speaker 1: of Ksey, then yeah, I mean, Henry reminds me of

1815
01:32:39,479 --> 01:32:45,360
Speaker 1: Campbell and um Krishna Koya and all stat but faster

1816
01:32:45,479 --> 01:32:48,320
Speaker 1: and more elusive. I mean, he's amazing. But at the

1817
01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:51,720
Speaker 1: same time, if you take the Derek Brooks approach with

1818
01:32:51,920 --> 01:32:56,080
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay back when they had a top defense, he

1819
01:32:56,240 --> 01:32:58,639
Speaker 1: was all about wrap him up, wait for the next

1820
01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:00,680
Speaker 1: guy to hit him hard up up top because he's

1821
01:33:00,680 --> 01:33:03,400
Speaker 1: so big. And I think that that is what they're

1822
01:33:03,400 --> 01:33:06,960
Speaker 1: going to do. And so that's why I think that

1823
01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:09,280
Speaker 1: in yes, I think that's more of a toss up

1824
01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:12,160
Speaker 1: game than I think that Green Bay's. You know, I

1825
01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:14,840
Speaker 1: love Aaron Rodgers, I really do. I don't I don't

1826
01:33:14,840 --> 01:33:17,599
Speaker 1: have a you know, I don't have skin in the game,

1827
01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:20,040
Speaker 1: but I just I really believe that that's what's going

1828
01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:23,759
Speaker 1: to happen, and I am excited for it. I really

1829
01:33:23,840 --> 01:33:26,679
Speaker 1: really am So you think you think Green Bay Kansas

1830
01:33:26,720 --> 01:33:28,599
Speaker 1: City is a little bit of a mismatch and Kansas

1831
01:33:28,600 --> 01:33:32,400
Speaker 1: Green Bay could and then from now Dan, you think

1832
01:33:32,479 --> 01:33:34,200
Speaker 1: Kansas City and Green Bay are a little bit of

1833
01:33:34,200 --> 01:33:36,120
Speaker 1: a mismatch. You think Kansas City will run it up

1834
01:33:36,160 --> 01:33:42,280
Speaker 1: on them. Yeah, I think that Aaron Rodgers offense will

1835
01:33:42,400 --> 01:33:46,000
Speaker 1: keep up with with Kansas City. But I think the

1836
01:33:46,360 --> 01:33:49,360
Speaker 1: defense for Kansas City, because they've been so improved in

1837
01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:54,160
Speaker 1: the last few weeks, um several weeks, actually is better

1838
01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:57,479
Speaker 1: than Green Bays now. Their front great better, you know,

1839
01:33:57,520 --> 01:33:59,800
Speaker 1: in terms of a really good but I think they're

1840
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:04,040
Speaker 1: secondary like they are their suspect, and I think that

1841
01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:08,120
Speaker 1: Mahomes is going to capitalize on that. All right, Okay, thanks,

1842
01:34:08,160 --> 01:34:09,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna take a break here. When we come back,

1862
01:35:11,800 --> 01:35:14,360
Speaker 1: New England Green Bay in San Francisco. Follow up with

1863
01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:16,479
Speaker 1: the league game Sunday night. That game kicks off at

1864
01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:19,960
Speaker 1: six forty pm. The Packers beat the forty nine or

1865
01:35:19,960 --> 01:35:21,920
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers beat the Packers thirty seven to

1866
01:35:22,040 --> 01:35:25,080
Speaker 1: eight when they played back on November twenty fourth of

1867
01:35:25,200 --> 01:35:28,160
Speaker 1: this past year. But over the years, the Packers lead

1868
01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:31,599
Speaker 1: the all time series four games to three in the playoffs. Anyway,

1869
01:35:31,840 --> 01:35:33,880
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore is going to continue as the offensive play

1870
01:35:33,920 --> 01:35:36,719
Speaker 1: caller for the Dallas Cowboys in twenty twenty. That's according

1871
01:35:36,720 --> 01:35:39,760
Speaker 1: to new Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy. McCarthy called plays for

1872
01:35:39,880 --> 01:35:42,040
Speaker 1: most of his thirteen year run in Green Bay, but

1873
01:35:42,160 --> 01:35:44,080
Speaker 1: he's turned it over to Kellen Moore this year. Moore's

1874
01:35:44,120 --> 01:35:46,120
Speaker 1: been there as a player and a coach in Dallas

1875
01:35:46,200 --> 01:35:48,760
Speaker 1: for the last several years. Ben McAdoo, former head coach

1876
01:35:48,800 --> 01:35:50,760
Speaker 1: of the New York Giants, has spent the last two

1877
01:35:50,800 --> 01:35:53,440
Speaker 1: seasons out of the league, but he's interviewing four vacancies

1878
01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:58,160
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator. He interviewed with the Jacksonville Jaguars earlier yesterday.

1879
01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:00,680
Speaker 1: Before that, he interviewed with the Carolina There's for a

1880
01:36:00,760 --> 01:36:03,840
Speaker 1: position on new coach Matt Rules staff. Kyler Murray says, yeah,

1881
01:36:03,840 --> 01:36:06,200
Speaker 1: he can play baseball. Not next year, but coming off

1882
01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:09,200
Speaker 1: his rookie season. The Arizona Cardinals quarterback says he could

1883
01:36:09,360 --> 01:36:12,360
Speaker 1: join a short list of players to play both professional

1884
01:36:12,439 --> 01:36:15,600
Speaker 1: baseball and football at the same time. The NFL and

1885
01:36:15,720 --> 01:36:18,680
Speaker 1: the Players Association have made progress on portions of a

1886
01:36:18,760 --> 01:36:21,840
Speaker 1: new collective bargaining agreement but Demorris Smith sent a letter

1887
01:36:21,880 --> 01:36:25,000
Speaker 1: to his union membership saying that significant issues still need

1888
01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:27,400
Speaker 1: to be resolved. And the Savers play at Nashville tomorrow

1889
01:36:27,439 --> 01:36:29,479
Speaker 1: night at eight o'clock. And that's it. The sports update

Speaker 1: in studio with us. Happy to have him. Bleacher Reports.

1892
01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:37,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Dunn, Tyler, last time you're in here was before

1893
01:36:37,240 --> 01:36:39,000
Speaker 1: we kicked it off for the regular season. Good to

1894
01:36:39,040 --> 01:36:41,240
Speaker 1: have you back. Great to be back with both of

1895
01:36:41,320 --> 01:36:44,000
Speaker 1: you guys here. I think it was just Steve for

1896
01:36:44,400 --> 01:36:46,639
Speaker 1: a day and you Murf for a day, So that's great. Yeah,

1897
01:36:46,640 --> 01:36:48,960
Speaker 1: it's good. It's good. And you're kind of bouncing around vacations.

1898
01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:51,280
Speaker 1: We're laughing about, you know, us, Murph and I putting

1899
01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:54,680
Speaker 1: a moratorium on talking about the Houston laws. As we

1900
01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:57,519
Speaker 1: get to Wednesday of this next week, we're off Monday Tuesday.

1901
01:36:57,760 --> 01:37:00,439
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about what this offseason should look

1902
01:37:00,439 --> 01:37:01,760
Speaker 1: like for the Bills and where do you think, you know,

1903
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:04,519
Speaker 1: give us a state of the Union and briefly of

1904
01:37:04,560 --> 01:37:06,680
Speaker 1: where you think's going on. Got to clean up those

1905
01:37:06,760 --> 01:37:10,360
Speaker 1: vicious blindside blocks, guys, just you know, just dirty, dirty

1906
01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:17,679
Speaker 1: play out there awful. No, I mean obviously that was ridiculous. Yeah, terrible, terrible,

1907
01:37:17,720 --> 01:37:20,799
Speaker 1: But offense, right, I mean they they've got the defense.

1908
01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:23,760
Speaker 1: The defense is fine, it's in Sean McDermott's image. And

1909
01:37:23,840 --> 01:37:26,880
Speaker 1: then some bite out. I mean, the best safety tandem

1910
01:37:26,920 --> 01:37:29,599
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Maybe a great pass rush. You mentioned

1911
01:37:29,640 --> 01:37:32,040
Speaker 1: Tremaine Admans getting to the Pro Bowl. They're fine. Um,

1912
01:37:32,080 --> 01:37:34,960
Speaker 1: if they don't go into that draft and think offense, offense, offense,

1913
01:37:35,560 --> 01:37:40,240
Speaker 1: something's wrong. I mean, you gotta gotta get some playmakers, right,

1914
01:37:40,280 --> 01:37:42,439
Speaker 1: and another receiver, a big receiver. I'm sure you guys

1915
01:37:42,479 --> 01:37:45,920
Speaker 1: have talked about that for hours upon hours, but that

1916
01:37:46,040 --> 01:37:49,280
Speaker 1: seems to be a missing piece, and you know, maybe

1917
01:37:49,320 --> 01:37:52,719
Speaker 1: a tight end, maybe another back, just just anybody that's dynamic,

1918
01:37:52,800 --> 01:37:55,560
Speaker 1: anybody that scares you. They just got in to so

1919
01:37:55,640 --> 01:37:58,800
Speaker 1: many moments the season it felt like where you needed

1920
01:37:58,880 --> 01:38:01,439
Speaker 1: you needed somebody else. There was something missing. And then

1921
01:38:01,479 --> 01:38:03,360
Speaker 1: obviously it all comes down to Josh Allen. I mean,

1922
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:05,479
Speaker 1: he hasked to take a step. Eat. If Josh Allen

1923
01:38:05,520 --> 01:38:07,800
Speaker 1: isn't any good, then this team is not going to

1924
01:38:07,880 --> 01:38:09,599
Speaker 1: take that next step. I don't know if he is yet.

1925
01:38:09,680 --> 01:38:13,000
Speaker 1: We talked about this in the green room for our

1926
01:38:13,040 --> 01:38:15,960
Speaker 1: show outside in the control room. And I'm interested in

1927
01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:18,600
Speaker 1: your perspective because you do cover the entire NFL. You

1928
01:38:18,680 --> 01:38:20,680
Speaker 1: see what all these teams are doing. You spent some

1929
01:38:20,800 --> 01:38:22,599
Speaker 1: time with Tennessee. This pass rate. We're going to talk

1930
01:38:22,640 --> 01:38:25,320
Speaker 1: about that. But tell me how and how much the

1931
01:38:25,400 --> 01:38:28,400
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans are better than the Buffalo Bills. I don't

1932
01:38:28,439 --> 01:38:30,920
Speaker 1: think there's that much difference between them. I appreciate what

1933
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:32,680
Speaker 1: the Titans have done. They've won a couple of tough

1934
01:38:32,760 --> 01:38:34,680
Speaker 1: road games to get there where they're getting, But are

1935
01:38:34,760 --> 01:38:36,720
Speaker 1: they really that much better than the Bills right now?

1936
01:38:37,439 --> 01:38:41,479
Speaker 1: I mean, offensively, I think they are. You've got this beast,

1937
01:38:41,640 --> 01:38:44,920
Speaker 1: this monstar of a running back and Derrick Henry, who's

1938
01:38:45,240 --> 01:38:48,559
Speaker 1: unlike any player that maybe we've seen this generation. I mean,

1939
01:38:48,600 --> 01:38:51,519
Speaker 1: nobody can tackle the guy right now. And then at quarterback,

1940
01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:54,479
Speaker 1: I mean Ryan Tannehill led the NFL and passer rating

1941
01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:56,400
Speaker 1: for a reason. I mean they were two and four,

1942
01:38:56,439 --> 01:38:59,160
Speaker 1: their season was done and that Bill's loss, which, by

1943
01:38:59,200 --> 01:39:01,639
Speaker 1: the way, talking of any or Kenny Vicaro this this week,

1944
01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:03,600
Speaker 1: he could not believe how many Bills fans are in

1945
01:39:03,680 --> 01:39:06,120
Speaker 1: that stadium. He called an embarrassing for the Titans and

1946
01:39:06,200 --> 01:39:08,120
Speaker 1: and said, hey, if fire fans don't show up next

1947
01:39:08,200 --> 01:39:10,120
Speaker 1: year and then then get out of the city. So

1948
01:39:10,400 --> 01:39:12,280
Speaker 1: you know, kudos to the Bills fans for showing up

1949
01:39:12,320 --> 01:39:14,880
Speaker 1: to that one. But yeah, I mean it's I think

1950
01:39:14,880 --> 01:39:17,800
Speaker 1: you're looking at Tannahill best passerading in the NFL. Takes

1951
01:39:17,840 --> 01:39:20,280
Speaker 1: advantage of those one on one matchups when you do

1952
01:39:20,400 --> 01:39:22,960
Speaker 1: load up up the box to stop Derrick Henry Josh

1953
01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:26,479
Speaker 1: Allen dead lasting completion percentage. He's a gamer, he's got

1954
01:39:26,520 --> 01:39:29,880
Speaker 1: some running ability. But um, if teams are going to

1955
01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:32,120
Speaker 1: force you to throw the ball from the pocket this

1956
01:39:32,240 --> 01:39:35,000
Speaker 1: part part of the season, I would expect that's what, um,

1957
01:39:35,680 --> 01:39:36,960
Speaker 1: you know this weekend, what they're going to try to

1958
01:39:37,000 --> 01:39:39,360
Speaker 1: do the to Tennessee in Kansas City. And I think

1959
01:39:39,360 --> 01:39:42,200
Speaker 1: Tannahill can beat you. You do think Tannehill just you

1960
01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:44,840
Speaker 1: think he's well, I mean, we watched him play in

1961
01:39:44,920 --> 01:39:52,040
Speaker 1: Miami twice a year year and I'm yeah, certainly he's

1962
01:39:52,280 --> 01:39:55,880
Speaker 1: had to throw. He's got what fifteen completions in the

1963
01:39:55,920 --> 01:40:01,160
Speaker 1: postseason in two games. Um, and he's hitting enough of

1964
01:40:01,240 --> 01:40:04,200
Speaker 1: him although he's like right at or around fifty percent

1965
01:40:04,240 --> 01:40:10,080
Speaker 1: of his passes if they ask more of him is

1966
01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:12,559
Speaker 1: to me, it seems like they're gonna need some guys

1967
01:40:12,600 --> 01:40:15,960
Speaker 1: around him to make plays and without being Derrick Henry.

1968
01:40:16,320 --> 01:40:18,840
Speaker 1: Is there that in Tennessee? You think there's enough? I

1969
01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:21,280
Speaker 1: think so. I mean a J. Brown, I mean seeing

1970
01:40:21,320 --> 01:40:23,280
Speaker 1: this guy in person, by the way, guy's man. I

1971
01:40:23,320 --> 01:40:25,599
Speaker 1: mean he is a lot like DK Metcalf. I don't

1972
01:40:25,600 --> 01:40:27,320
Speaker 1: know what was on the water at all, Miss, but

1973
01:40:27,760 --> 01:40:29,880
Speaker 1: they've got that stud receiver that I think if if

1974
01:40:29,920 --> 01:40:33,400
Speaker 1: they force Tennessee to throw the ball, load up on

1975
01:40:33,439 --> 01:40:35,280
Speaker 1: the box, say all right, we're just gonna go man

1976
01:40:35,360 --> 01:40:38,600
Speaker 1: coverage back there beat us Ryan Tannehill. He's done it

1977
01:40:38,840 --> 01:40:40,400
Speaker 1: this year. I mean they were two and four, the

1978
01:40:40,439 --> 01:40:43,120
Speaker 1: season was done, and they he brought life to that team.

1979
01:40:43,240 --> 01:40:46,880
Speaker 1: So I think it's there. I mean we're gonna find out,

1980
01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:49,080
Speaker 1: but it starts with Derrick Henry. I mean, if they

1981
01:40:49,080 --> 01:40:51,240
Speaker 1: can't stop Derrick Henry, why would you throw the ball

1982
01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:53,800
Speaker 1: more than fifteen times a game? I mean, he's on

1983
01:40:54,080 --> 01:40:56,280
Speaker 1: an epic run. Right now, you were spent some time

1984
01:40:56,320 --> 01:40:58,360
Speaker 1: in Nashville this week, right right? Did they have big

1985
01:40:58,520 --> 01:41:01,080
Speaker 1: like bottles of kool Aid for you to drink on

1986
01:41:01,120 --> 01:41:05,720
Speaker 1: the way believable. I don't think. I don't think they

1987
01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:08,040
Speaker 1: have a chance. You didn't like Tennessee before the season,

1988
01:41:08,360 --> 01:41:10,400
Speaker 1: I said, keep an eye on this team. Who said,

1989
01:41:10,400 --> 01:41:12,320
Speaker 1: I'm nuts. I also said the Bills would be seven

1990
01:41:12,360 --> 01:41:14,600
Speaker 1: to nine, So I guess we split it there. What

1991
01:41:14,720 --> 01:41:16,600
Speaker 1: about the team, what about the team they're playing, they

1992
01:41:16,720 --> 01:41:20,080
Speaker 1: match up, they're gonna have You would think they're gonna

1993
01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:22,080
Speaker 1: have to score points. Even in the last game where

1994
01:41:22,080 --> 01:41:24,720
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans won, the Chief scored thirty plus and

1995
01:41:24,840 --> 01:41:27,360
Speaker 1: both teams did uh and the Titans haven't managed to

1996
01:41:27,400 --> 01:41:29,639
Speaker 1: get into the end zone enough to make it work

1997
01:41:30,160 --> 01:41:32,840
Speaker 1: and to win the game. The ex expect that to

1998
01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:34,200
Speaker 1: be the case this time. It's just going to be

1999
01:41:34,240 --> 01:41:36,479
Speaker 1: a replay, you know. I think that they'll give up yards.

2000
01:41:36,520 --> 01:41:38,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Patrick Mahomes is going to move the ball.

2001
01:41:38,439 --> 01:41:40,040
Speaker 1: They even said that. I talked a lot to the

2002
01:41:40,320 --> 01:41:44,519
Speaker 1: to the DBS this week, Kevin Byered, Kenny Vicaro, Dorey Jackson,

2003
01:41:44,800 --> 01:41:47,479
Speaker 1: Logan Ryan. I mean they do expect Mahomes to get

2004
01:41:47,800 --> 01:41:51,360
Speaker 1: his I mean he does, but they expect to get turnovers.

2005
01:41:51,400 --> 01:41:53,360
Speaker 1: I mean that's what they did against Lamar Jackson. Lamar

2006
01:41:53,479 --> 01:41:56,040
Speaker 1: Jackson had like five hundred yards, but the game plan

2007
01:41:56,280 --> 01:41:59,479
Speaker 1: was get him moving. Latterly, they didn't waste a defender

2008
01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:01,680
Speaker 1: on a spot. They try to disguise stuff on the

2009
01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:04,439
Speaker 1: back end. They pressured them, they forced those turnovers. I

2010
01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:06,640
Speaker 1: think what Tennessee's defense does so well, guys, I mean

2011
01:42:06,680 --> 01:42:09,960
Speaker 1: they changed their game plan week to week, unlike anybody

2012
01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:11,800
Speaker 1: in the league. I mean, you're going against Tom Brady

2013
01:42:11,920 --> 01:42:14,920
Speaker 1: one week, who's about as different from Lamar Jackson's you

2014
01:42:14,960 --> 01:42:17,759
Speaker 1: could ask for. It's a different challenge in Patrick Mahomes.

2015
01:42:17,840 --> 01:42:20,080
Speaker 1: But I tell you they're confident. I mean they pointed

2016
01:42:20,120 --> 01:42:21,720
Speaker 1: to that last game and said, yeah, he put up

2017
01:42:21,720 --> 01:42:24,439
Speaker 1: all those yards. But Kenny Vaccaro says, I dropped an

2018
01:42:24,439 --> 01:42:26,560
Speaker 1: interception the first play of the game Dory Jackson and

2019
01:42:26,640 --> 01:42:29,880
Speaker 1: won't bounce off his chest. They've got those playmakers. I

2020
01:42:29,960 --> 01:42:32,200
Speaker 1: think to just just do enough on defense, just because

2021
01:42:32,479 --> 01:42:34,880
Speaker 1: Mahomes gonna tee it up. He's gonna he's a gun slinger,

2022
01:42:34,880 --> 01:42:38,040
Speaker 1: He's gonna give them those opportunities. I agree. I'm sorry.

2023
01:42:38,600 --> 01:42:40,280
Speaker 1: One of the things I kind of remember they flashed

2024
01:42:40,280 --> 01:42:41,840
Speaker 1: into my mind from back in the days when I

2025
01:42:41,920 --> 01:42:44,760
Speaker 1: was in these kind of games, is you are going

2026
01:42:44,840 --> 01:42:46,880
Speaker 1: to get a chance to make an interception. You are

2027
01:42:46,920 --> 01:42:49,080
Speaker 1: going to get a chance to recover a fumble or

2028
01:42:49,160 --> 01:42:51,120
Speaker 1: force a fumble or get a ball before it goes

2029
01:42:51,160 --> 01:42:53,880
Speaker 1: out of bounds, and those kind of opportunities when you're

2030
01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:57,080
Speaker 1: playing these really good teams are monumental, and if you

2031
01:42:57,160 --> 01:43:01,640
Speaker 1: do drop the interception, that might be the difference, you know,

2032
01:43:01,800 --> 01:43:05,240
Speaker 1: And the fact that they dropped them the first time,

2033
01:43:05,400 --> 01:43:07,400
Speaker 1: you know, certainly they may get a chance this time

2034
01:43:07,520 --> 01:43:08,960
Speaker 1: or maybe that you know, but I think there's a

2035
01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:11,200
Speaker 1: lot of water under the bridge between that first game

2036
01:43:11,240 --> 01:43:14,479
Speaker 1: and this game in November and this game here in January.

2037
01:43:16,600 --> 01:43:18,800
Speaker 1: But there's gonna be opportunities for these teams to win it.

2038
01:43:18,840 --> 01:43:20,920
Speaker 1: And it's the team that actually can sees it and

2039
01:43:21,040 --> 01:43:22,639
Speaker 1: make the most of it that's gonna be the difference,

2040
01:43:22,680 --> 01:43:25,439
Speaker 1: because as good as they are, they're gonna make mistakes.

2041
01:43:26,080 --> 01:43:28,320
Speaker 1: That's exactly what Kenny Vicaro told me, Steve. I mean,

2042
01:43:28,360 --> 01:43:31,000
Speaker 1: he said, look, it's he's a big military movie guy,

2043
01:43:31,120 --> 01:43:34,000
Speaker 1: military book buff, and said that, you know, he just

2044
01:43:34,120 --> 01:43:38,840
Speaker 1: loves that stuffs one decision, one move throughout history just

2045
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:41,519
Speaker 1: rewrites history. And that's how he looks at football. One play.

2046
01:43:41,520 --> 01:43:44,439
Speaker 1: I mean, Malcolm Butler's on ir Malcolm Butler just doesn't

2047
01:43:44,479 --> 01:43:48,080
Speaker 1: cut in front of that slant to pick off Russell Wilson.

2048
01:43:48,120 --> 01:43:50,479
Speaker 1: I mean, history is different, and I think that this

2049
01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:52,680
Speaker 1: is a team, this is a secondary that really does

2050
01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:56,240
Speaker 1: grasp that and is opportunistic. And they've done a game

2051
01:43:56,280 --> 01:43:58,439
Speaker 1: in in game out. They're gonna give up yards. Patrick

2052
01:43:58,520 --> 01:44:00,519
Speaker 1: Mahomes is gonna get his. But I mean, Steve as

2053
01:44:00,520 --> 01:44:02,240
Speaker 1: you know, things change week to week. I mean, look

2054
01:44:02,280 --> 01:44:06,479
Speaker 1: at fifty one to three Oakland, right, I mean, game

2055
01:44:06,520 --> 01:44:09,960
Speaker 1: plans change, teams change. I think that Tennessee's just a

2056
01:44:10,080 --> 01:44:13,320
Speaker 1: different beast for Patrick Mahomes to deal with then than

2057
01:44:13,360 --> 01:44:16,000
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans, which didn't just don't have a good defense.

2058
01:44:16,040 --> 01:44:18,360
Speaker 1: We're talking with Tyler Dunn from Bleacher Report. He's here

2059
01:44:18,400 --> 01:44:20,240
Speaker 1: in studio with us. If you have a comment question,

2060
01:44:20,320 --> 01:44:23,320
Speaker 1: we'll take the phone calls eight three fifty toll free

2061
01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:26,400
Speaker 1: one eight eight five fifty two five fifty. You mentioned

2062
01:44:26,439 --> 01:44:28,720
Speaker 1: to talk to Kenny mccaro for a while. Always one

2063
01:44:28,760 --> 01:44:30,800
Speaker 1: of my favorites back when he was with the Saints.

2064
01:44:30,880 --> 01:44:32,880
Speaker 1: I just like the way he plays, But I just

2065
01:44:33,040 --> 01:44:35,479
Speaker 1: this is off topic a little bit. You talk about

2066
01:44:35,520 --> 01:44:37,360
Speaker 1: a drip that he had going in what do you

2067
01:44:37,400 --> 01:44:42,280
Speaker 1: call it? Nico to animie denning nucleotide? What's going on

2068
01:44:42,400 --> 01:44:44,960
Speaker 1: with that? I've never heard of that. The only team

2069
01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:47,240
Speaker 1: that does that, right, right, I've never heard of that

2070
01:44:47,320 --> 01:44:49,920
Speaker 1: before any d. I'm not gonna try to pronounce it. So,

2071
01:44:50,240 --> 01:44:52,479
Speaker 1: you know, nice job there, Murpher taking care of that

2072
01:44:52,600 --> 01:44:56,240
Speaker 1: for um. You know, I walked into uh Adam Bobo

2073
01:44:56,280 --> 01:44:58,439
Speaker 1: as his name. He doesn't really have an affiliation with

2074
01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:00,040
Speaker 1: with the team. I don't believe. He just has a

2075
01:45:00,120 --> 01:45:03,479
Speaker 1: company that tone of the table right, it's legal? I mean,

2076
01:45:03,600 --> 01:45:05,880
Speaker 1: my gosh, we were just there talking about it. But yeah,

2077
01:45:05,920 --> 01:45:08,639
Speaker 1: he was hooked up to an IV and this NAD.

2078
01:45:08,760 --> 01:45:12,680
Speaker 1: It's a molecule that they said was used initially back

2079
01:45:12,720 --> 01:45:16,400
Speaker 1: in the nineteen forties for people with schizophrenia and today

2080
01:45:16,479 --> 01:45:19,160
Speaker 1: a lot of the high end celebrity addiction centers because

2081
01:45:19,200 --> 01:45:20,880
Speaker 1: it's not cheap. This stuff costs a lot of money.

2082
01:45:21,439 --> 01:45:24,639
Speaker 1: It's used for addiction, you know that to help, I guess,

2083
01:45:24,960 --> 01:45:28,240
Speaker 1: calm your body, calm your system, cleans you out. Initially,

2084
01:45:28,280 --> 01:45:30,960
Speaker 1: it feels like you're having one hundred three degree you know,

2085
01:45:31,080 --> 01:45:35,400
Speaker 1: fever of the flu. And Kenny Riccardo swears by it.

2086
01:45:35,800 --> 01:45:38,000
Speaker 1: It says he feels fresh in the fourth quarters now.

2087
01:45:38,520 --> 01:45:40,360
Speaker 1: And then at the end of the conversation, he kind

2088
01:45:40,360 --> 01:45:42,439
Speaker 1: of said, hey, by the way, you know, Derrick Henry's

2089
01:45:42,439 --> 01:45:44,120
Speaker 1: on this stuff too, and the whole offensive line. So

2090
01:45:44,160 --> 01:45:45,479
Speaker 1: why do you think you know we're running the ball

2091
01:45:45,760 --> 01:45:51,200
Speaker 1: so well? I mean it's called nicotinamide, adenine dinucleotide and

2092
01:45:51,280 --> 01:45:54,920
Speaker 1: AD and it's yeah, it's just and guys have been

2093
01:45:54,960 --> 01:45:56,960
Speaker 1: getting nivs, you know, for for you know, when they

2094
01:45:57,120 --> 01:45:59,320
Speaker 1: get on the field and they they're dehydrated, they their

2095
01:45:59,400 --> 01:46:01,760
Speaker 1: muscles start to cramp up, they'll go in and get

2096
01:46:01,760 --> 01:46:04,600
Speaker 1: an IV and all that stuff. And so it's like

2097
01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:08,400
Speaker 1: I've never heard of that, right, nor I've never heard

2098
01:46:08,400 --> 01:46:12,160
Speaker 1: of that. But it's just like you know, it's like

2099
01:46:12,240 --> 01:46:15,160
Speaker 1: drinking oxygenated water sometimes and all that stuff. All the

2100
01:46:15,360 --> 01:46:17,599
Speaker 1: it's all you know, you're trying to get an edge,

2101
01:46:17,680 --> 01:46:20,960
Speaker 1: it is, and what we've been talking about, the baseball

2102
01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:22,960
Speaker 1: thing and all that. You know, there's these guys and

2103
01:46:23,280 --> 01:46:25,240
Speaker 1: he is also and you you mentioned it too, and

2104
01:46:25,320 --> 01:46:26,960
Speaker 1: this is will give people an insight of what their

2105
01:46:27,000 --> 01:46:31,479
Speaker 1: mindset is like as well. He doesn't care. I mean,

2106
01:46:31,600 --> 01:46:34,559
Speaker 1: he he goes, he goes, I may not be able

2107
01:46:34,600 --> 01:46:36,000
Speaker 1: to walk when I'm forty or fifty. He goes, I

2108
01:46:36,040 --> 01:46:37,599
Speaker 1: don't care, because I'm all about the here and now,

2109
01:46:37,960 --> 01:46:40,479
Speaker 1: and he freely acknowledges it. Those that's kind of the

2110
01:46:40,560 --> 01:46:44,599
Speaker 1: mentality these guys have. They they're willing to go through

2111
01:46:44,720 --> 01:46:46,680
Speaker 1: what it takes to win these games in order to

2112
01:46:46,760 --> 01:46:48,960
Speaker 1: do it, and they'll they'll live with the results in

2113
01:46:49,040 --> 01:46:51,960
Speaker 1: ten or fifteen years. I mean, unbelievable, right. He just

2114
01:46:52,120 --> 01:46:54,880
Speaker 1: the day before in the National Championship game, we all

2115
01:46:54,920 --> 01:46:57,439
Speaker 1: kind of saw Earl Campbell there at halftime and really

2116
01:46:57,479 --> 01:46:59,160
Speaker 1: tough for him to move. He brought that uncles. He

2117
01:46:59,160 --> 01:47:01,280
Speaker 1: struggles to walk. Yeah, he goes, I don't care if

2118
01:47:01,320 --> 01:47:04,160
Speaker 1: that's me one day I'm sixty seventy. It's already written

2119
01:47:04,439 --> 01:47:06,640
Speaker 1: he's talking about. You know, he tried to pop his

2120
01:47:06,680 --> 01:47:09,200
Speaker 1: ankle back into place when he broke it once, tore

2121
01:47:09,240 --> 01:47:13,519
Speaker 1: all the tendons, needed twelve screws inserted, and tore's growing

2122
01:47:13,640 --> 01:47:16,479
Speaker 1: muscle off the bone. His words, I mean, this guy

2123
01:47:16,640 --> 01:47:19,479
Speaker 1: is his nuts. Yeah, I mean he's he's not alone too.

2124
01:47:19,560 --> 01:47:21,960
Speaker 1: I mean, it takes a mentality, and you know, I

2125
01:47:22,120 --> 01:47:25,280
Speaker 1: think for him being that and he did say, look,

2126
01:47:25,439 --> 01:47:27,880
Speaker 1: football is a game. It's trivial, but he is all

2127
01:47:27,960 --> 01:47:32,000
Speaker 1: about that military mindset of sacrifice. Loves throwing his body

2128
01:47:32,040 --> 01:47:34,600
Speaker 1: into six hundred pounds of linemen. He said, if that

2129
01:47:34,720 --> 01:47:36,680
Speaker 1: means his quarterback is going to make a tackle on

2130
01:47:36,760 --> 01:47:39,160
Speaker 1: that play, it's a it's a different mentality, and not

2131
01:47:39,280 --> 01:47:41,920
Speaker 1: everybody has it. He definitely does. Yeah, it's true. Take

2132
01:47:41,960 --> 01:47:44,120
Speaker 1: a phone call here from Joe on the line with this. Joe,

2133
01:47:44,160 --> 01:47:47,320
Speaker 1: go ahead, you're on the air, Hey, guys, Yeah, you know,

2134
01:47:47,479 --> 01:47:52,120
Speaker 1: I'm listening. And I remember Karen mister Dunn before the

2135
01:47:52,160 --> 01:47:56,320
Speaker 1: season with his predictions, and you know, I think we

2136
01:47:56,439 --> 01:47:58,080
Speaker 1: were off on some of those things. And I think

2137
01:47:58,080 --> 01:48:01,360
Speaker 1: we're off a little bit here because um when and

2138
01:48:01,560 --> 01:48:04,400
Speaker 1: and believe me, I'm sure because of Ryan Tannehill not

2139
01:48:04,560 --> 01:48:06,920
Speaker 1: being on the team when Buffalo played them early in

2140
01:48:06,960 --> 01:48:09,280
Speaker 1: the year, Um, they would have scared him out of

2141
01:48:09,320 --> 01:48:13,639
Speaker 1: the Jesus with with his uh, with his abilities. Um.

2142
01:48:14,479 --> 01:48:17,839
Speaker 1: And I'm being sarcastic there, but I think Derrick Henry

2143
01:48:18,000 --> 01:48:20,840
Speaker 1: was running the ball at that time, um, and the

2144
01:48:20,920 --> 01:48:24,639
Speaker 1: Buffalo defense did a pretty good job on him. Now, again,

2145
01:48:24,800 --> 01:48:28,160
Speaker 1: I understand there's a difference in quarterback, but I can't imagine,

2146
01:48:28,840 --> 01:48:31,479
Speaker 1: um that the difference would have been so stark at

2147
01:48:31,520 --> 01:48:33,400
Speaker 1: the time. And granted they missed a bunch of field

2148
01:48:33,439 --> 01:48:37,040
Speaker 1: goals in that game, it could have definitely been a

2149
01:48:37,120 --> 01:48:39,760
Speaker 1: different way. But I thought the Buffalo's defense, if I

2150
01:48:39,880 --> 01:48:43,560
Speaker 1: remember correctly, did quite well against Derrick Henry on that

2151
01:48:43,680 --> 01:48:46,360
Speaker 1: particular day. Derrick Henry had twenty carries for seventy eight

2152
01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:49,000
Speaker 1: yards one touch him. Yeah, and they did miss four

2153
01:48:49,120 --> 01:48:51,479
Speaker 1: kicks I think two or three field goals, had an

2154
01:48:51,520 --> 01:48:54,799
Speaker 1: extra point something like that. So yeah, the Tennessee Titans

2155
01:48:54,880 --> 01:48:57,280
Speaker 1: had had plenty of opportunities to win that game and

2156
01:48:57,680 --> 01:48:59,320
Speaker 1: all they had to do is make their kicks if

2157
01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:02,240
Speaker 1: if everything, all things being equal, and they couldn't do it.

2158
01:49:02,720 --> 01:49:06,240
Speaker 1: And it was one of those games that Buffalo was

2159
01:49:06,280 --> 01:49:08,000
Speaker 1: in all through the year. We've said at a time

2160
01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:09,599
Speaker 1: and time again, it was one of those one score

2161
01:49:09,680 --> 01:49:12,280
Speaker 1: games that Buffalo seemed to thrive in the way. It

2162
01:49:12,320 --> 01:49:14,080
Speaker 1: could have gone either way. It seems like so three

2163
01:49:14,160 --> 01:49:17,080
Speaker 1: months is an eternity in a season, isn't it. Teams changed,

2164
01:49:17,240 --> 01:49:20,040
Speaker 1: but the Bills changed since then, totally certainly have changed

2165
01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:22,920
Speaker 1: since then. Maybe the problem was Adam Gates, right, I mean,

2166
01:49:23,000 --> 01:49:25,120
Speaker 1: look at Davante Parker. I mean he was. I think

2167
01:49:25,160 --> 01:49:28,640
Speaker 1: second the AFC and receiving m Kenyan Drake ends up.

2168
01:49:28,680 --> 01:49:31,640
Speaker 1: He's pretty good running back Ryan Tannehill. Maybe he was

2169
01:49:31,640 --> 01:49:33,599
Speaker 1: a good quarterback all along, and you said some bad

2170
01:49:33,640 --> 01:49:35,680
Speaker 1: coaching and now he's getting some good coaching. So much

2171
01:49:35,680 --> 01:49:37,760
Speaker 1: of it's the situation you're in, and hey, that would

2172
01:49:37,760 --> 01:49:40,400
Speaker 1: be a good situation for the Bills. Experienda Gates still

2173
01:49:40,439 --> 01:49:42,960
Speaker 1: being in the division experience is a really really good teacher.

2174
01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:44,719
Speaker 1: And I think that's one of the things our quarterback

2175
01:49:44,720 --> 01:49:46,880
Speaker 1: here in Buffalo, Josh Allen, is going to have to

2176
01:49:47,040 --> 01:49:50,120
Speaker 1: kind of matriculate through. You get from this point where

2177
01:49:50,360 --> 01:49:53,360
Speaker 1: he's this you know, twenty two year old, you know

2178
01:49:53,680 --> 01:49:55,679
Speaker 1: athlete who's just trying to win it on every play

2179
01:49:55,840 --> 01:49:59,360
Speaker 1: to a guy who has the poison and the wherewithal

2180
01:49:59,439 --> 01:50:01,559
Speaker 1: and the mental maturity of a guy like an Aaron

2181
01:50:01,680 --> 01:50:06,360
Speaker 1: Rodgers or a guy like a Ben Roethlisberger, Drew Brees

2182
01:50:06,520 --> 01:50:08,360
Speaker 1: or you know, Philip Rivers. If you wanted to get

2183
01:50:08,400 --> 01:50:09,880
Speaker 1: him to that level, you got to you gotta live

2184
01:50:10,000 --> 01:50:12,120
Speaker 1: through those early years when it all becomes too easy

2185
01:50:12,200 --> 01:50:13,880
Speaker 1: for him and it all becomes mentally like, oh, I

2186
01:50:14,120 --> 01:50:16,200
Speaker 1: know what's going on here? Where he becomes more casual

2187
01:50:16,760 --> 01:50:19,200
Speaker 1: with the things that right now blow his mind. And

2188
01:50:19,600 --> 01:50:22,040
Speaker 1: when that happens, maybe he'll play a little more casual

2189
01:50:22,160 --> 01:50:25,639
Speaker 1: rather than so frenetic at the end of these games. Yeah,

2190
01:50:25,720 --> 01:50:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean, because that that seems to be like a

2191
01:50:27,920 --> 01:50:31,639
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson's strength. You know, even in that National Championship game,

2192
01:50:31,680 --> 01:50:34,519
Speaker 1: he said before that game winning touchdown that you know,

2193
01:50:34,640 --> 01:50:36,680
Speaker 1: his heart rate was calm. He knew it was going

2194
01:50:36,720 --> 01:50:38,599
Speaker 1: to be a touchdown, There's no doubt about in his mind,

2195
01:50:38,600 --> 01:50:41,439
Speaker 1: and there's just just just peace kind of overcame him.

2196
01:50:41,479 --> 01:50:44,200
Speaker 1: And you saw that in that wildcard game where sixteen

2197
01:50:44,200 --> 01:50:48,840
Speaker 1: to nothing, Texans looked done and he was very, very calm.

2198
01:50:49,200 --> 01:50:51,479
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, who was great in fourth quarters all season long,

2199
01:50:51,520 --> 01:50:54,000
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, but it's like kind of spastic

2200
01:50:54,320 --> 01:50:56,040
Speaker 1: out there in it was gonna happen, play to play.

2201
01:50:56,160 --> 01:50:58,320
Speaker 1: So I think the fact that he did have a

2202
01:50:58,400 --> 01:51:00,240
Speaker 1: lot of good fourth quarters before that got it gives

2203
01:51:00,280 --> 01:51:01,800
Speaker 1: you a hope, right, I mean that he has that

2204
01:51:01,920 --> 01:51:03,680
Speaker 1: in him, but in that moment, I mean, that just

2205
01:51:03,720 --> 01:51:06,680
Speaker 1: seemed to be the difference in the games at Nadya

2206
01:51:06,760 --> 01:51:09,439
Speaker 1: get him on that nad right, you know, well, you

2207
01:51:09,760 --> 01:51:12,120
Speaker 1: know somewhere, it's in there, and you got to find

2208
01:51:12,160 --> 01:51:14,559
Speaker 1: a way mentally to pull it out all the time

2209
01:51:14,640 --> 01:51:16,960
Speaker 1: instead of just here and there and the other. And

2210
01:51:17,240 --> 01:51:19,559
Speaker 1: that's that's I think that's his you know, maybe perhaps

2211
01:51:19,600 --> 01:51:21,439
Speaker 1: one of the next steps he takes. We're talking with

2212
01:51:21,520 --> 01:51:23,519
Speaker 1: Tyler dun Bleacher Report got other things they ask you,

2213
01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:25,120
Speaker 1: but one more question about the Titans, Zoe and you

2214
01:51:25,240 --> 01:51:27,479
Speaker 1: just spent the most of this week here. Tell me

2215
01:51:27,520 --> 01:51:31,040
Speaker 1: about Mike Vrabel. He seems they have an interesting connection

2216
01:51:31,120 --> 01:51:33,680
Speaker 1: with his players, his team, Um, what is that? What

2217
01:51:33,840 --> 01:51:36,120
Speaker 1: is that based on? Is he a player's coach? Do

2218
01:51:36,200 --> 01:51:37,800
Speaker 1: you think? Or what? Yeah? I mean that gets thrown

2219
01:51:37,840 --> 01:51:39,720
Speaker 1: around a lot. I don't know, right, and what does

2220
01:51:39,760 --> 01:51:43,000
Speaker 1: it mean? I mean in Tennessee, I think it's real.

2221
01:51:43,120 --> 01:51:45,200
Speaker 1: What what Kenny Vacaro really said is this is a

2222
01:51:45,280 --> 01:51:48,040
Speaker 1: coach who tells you everything going on in his life,

2223
01:51:48,200 --> 01:51:50,080
Speaker 1: the good, the bad, and ugly. That he's opened up

2224
01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:52,400
Speaker 1: to these guys in front of the whole team and

2225
01:51:52,520 --> 01:51:55,719
Speaker 1: player to player in ways that he's never heard before,

2226
01:51:55,880 --> 01:51:57,920
Speaker 1: and that gets them to open up, That gets them

2227
01:51:57,960 --> 01:52:00,439
Speaker 1: to want to play harder, to run through real wall.

2228
01:52:00,560 --> 01:52:02,840
Speaker 1: I mean, you hear these cliches a lot, but it

2229
01:52:03,000 --> 01:52:06,120
Speaker 1: feels real in Tennessee him. I guess before the season,

2230
01:52:06,520 --> 01:52:08,680
Speaker 1: I think a lot of listeners might have caught it.

2231
01:52:08,800 --> 01:52:11,880
Speaker 1: But he went out a player's podcast, busting with the boys.

2232
01:52:11,960 --> 01:52:14,839
Speaker 1: He's in this bus with Taylor Lawn and Will Compton

2233
01:52:14,960 --> 01:52:17,920
Speaker 1: and drinking whiskey and talking about, you know, a certain

2234
01:52:17,960 --> 01:52:19,680
Speaker 1: body part he'd be willing to part with for a

2235
01:52:19,720 --> 01:52:21,960
Speaker 1: Super Bowl ring. That's right. I don't know how many

2236
01:52:22,000 --> 01:52:25,760
Speaker 1: head coaches are doing that, but yeah, it's I think

2237
01:52:25,800 --> 01:52:28,200
Speaker 1: that the fact that he played has something to do

2238
01:52:28,320 --> 01:52:30,000
Speaker 1: with it, but you piece it all together. I mean,

2239
01:52:30,280 --> 01:52:32,320
Speaker 1: there's a reason that they got out of that two

2240
01:52:32,360 --> 01:52:33,600
Speaker 1: fourth hole. I think a lot of it has to

2241
01:52:33,640 --> 01:52:35,400
Speaker 1: do with the coach. Yeah, yeah, I agree, And I

2242
01:52:35,479 --> 01:52:37,800
Speaker 1: think one of the things that ownership. And we've saw

2243
01:52:37,880 --> 01:52:40,280
Speaker 1: this this last hiring cycle go around in the National

2244
01:52:40,320 --> 01:52:42,800
Speaker 1: Football League where six of these teams were looking for

2245
01:52:42,920 --> 01:52:44,600
Speaker 1: new guys and the Cleveland Brown has just found the

2246
01:52:44,640 --> 01:52:46,519
Speaker 1: guy there looking for and they said, what are you

2247
01:52:46,600 --> 01:52:48,360
Speaker 1: looking for in a coach? And I think one of

2248
01:52:48,439 --> 01:52:50,679
Speaker 1: the things you're looking for is a guy who can lead,

2249
01:52:51,040 --> 01:52:53,360
Speaker 1: a guy who is the kind of human being that

2250
01:52:53,479 --> 01:52:56,160
Speaker 1: players want to join up with. It's not about and

2251
01:52:56,439 --> 01:52:59,439
Speaker 1: back in the old days, Tom Coughlin was the kind

2252
01:52:59,439 --> 01:53:00,800
Speaker 1: of guy that lets and I'm leading this team, you

2253
01:53:00,880 --> 01:53:03,439
Speaker 1: get in line behind me, let's go. Well, nobody wants

2254
01:53:03,479 --> 01:53:05,880
Speaker 1: to get in line behind you, but they will join you.

2255
01:53:06,680 --> 01:53:08,960
Speaker 1: And that's what leadership is. And this you've got a

2256
01:53:09,000 --> 01:53:11,160
Speaker 1: lot of big, strong guys who are pretty confident in

2257
01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:13,720
Speaker 1: what they're doing, and they need to have a guy

2258
01:53:13,800 --> 01:53:15,840
Speaker 1: at the head coach who's a guy who you want

2259
01:53:15,880 --> 01:53:19,000
Speaker 1: to join. Drabel is kind of one of those great

2260
01:53:19,080 --> 01:53:21,160
Speaker 1: teammate guys that you want to join with, and I

2261
01:53:21,240 --> 01:53:23,040
Speaker 1: think that's one of the reasons he's been successful this

2262
01:53:23,120 --> 01:53:24,519
Speaker 1: early in his grip, first time he's ever been a

2263
01:53:24,560 --> 01:53:26,840
Speaker 1: head coach, and he's got him in the championship game

2264
01:53:26,920 --> 01:53:28,720
Speaker 1: because I think it says a lot about him. It's

2265
01:53:28,720 --> 01:53:31,920
Speaker 1: not fake, right, I mean, you're dealing with adults, adults

2266
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:34,400
Speaker 1: dealing with adults, and if you're fake and you're just

2267
01:53:34,479 --> 01:53:38,840
Speaker 1: spewing platitudes and it's just not real, then I don't know,

2268
01:53:38,920 --> 01:53:40,519
Speaker 1: guys aren't going to respect you as much. I mean,

2269
01:53:41,280 --> 01:53:42,960
Speaker 1: you know there's coaches around the league that you know

2270
01:53:43,000 --> 01:53:46,960
Speaker 1: they're setting up skeet shooting days and playing dodgeballing days

2271
01:53:47,000 --> 01:53:48,799
Speaker 1: off and they're throwing it up on the team website

2272
01:53:48,800 --> 01:53:50,840
Speaker 1: and sometimes it feels a little forced and it doesn't

2273
01:53:50,880 --> 01:53:54,400
Speaker 1: feel real, but I think there's real camaraderie. I'm probably

2274
01:53:54,439 --> 01:53:56,320
Speaker 1: similar to what's going on here in Buffalo. There's there's

2275
01:53:56,360 --> 01:53:59,160
Speaker 1: real camaraderie there with the Titans, and they respect Rabel.

2276
01:53:59,280 --> 01:54:00,559
Speaker 1: That's one of the things that comes out of locker

2277
01:54:00,600 --> 01:54:02,760
Speaker 1: room here, right Murpham and these guys really really like

2278
01:54:02,920 --> 01:54:04,960
Speaker 1: each other. That's a great vibe coming out, and they

2279
01:54:05,000 --> 01:54:06,760
Speaker 1: do play a lot of that dodgeball and stuff, and

2280
01:54:06,800 --> 01:54:10,920
Speaker 1: it's all compiled or mixed with some real give and

2281
01:54:11,000 --> 01:54:13,960
Speaker 1: take on like where are you from? You know, what's

2282
01:54:13,960 --> 01:54:16,439
Speaker 1: your family? Like, what happened to you? What's your story?

2283
01:54:16,640 --> 01:54:18,760
Speaker 1: Kind of stuff about getting these guys to know each other,

2284
01:54:19,040 --> 01:54:22,400
Speaker 1: and it has really become, i think, an important part

2285
01:54:22,400 --> 01:54:24,200
Speaker 1: about being a good team. And I think you're down

2286
01:54:24,240 --> 01:54:26,599
Speaker 1: all these playoff teams and they can all probably point

2287
01:54:26,640 --> 01:54:28,680
Speaker 1: to instances like that. Hey, Tyler, I want to get

2288
01:54:28,720 --> 01:54:30,960
Speaker 1: you talking a little bit about the NFC Championship game,

2289
01:54:31,080 --> 01:54:32,840
Speaker 1: and I want to do it. You wrote a really

2290
01:54:32,880 --> 01:54:36,680
Speaker 1: good piece, interesting piece about Richard Sherman, who's always fascinated me.

2291
01:54:36,840 --> 01:54:39,080
Speaker 1: He does not appear to be a real warm and

2292
01:54:39,200 --> 01:54:41,960
Speaker 1: fuzzy guy, and I can't I still can't get over

2293
01:54:42,080 --> 01:54:45,200
Speaker 1: his postgame interview with Aaron Andrews and when he's with

2294
01:54:45,320 --> 01:54:46,840
Speaker 1: Seattle a couple of years ago, and it's just like

2295
01:54:47,360 --> 01:54:50,200
Speaker 1: that angry man thing just kind of falls short with me.

2296
01:54:50,360 --> 01:54:52,360
Speaker 1: But he uses it, right, I mean, he needs to

2297
01:54:52,400 --> 01:54:54,840
Speaker 1: do that. According to your article, he does. I mean

2298
01:54:54,920 --> 01:54:56,680
Speaker 1: that's a really good point, Murph, because I kind of

2299
01:54:56,720 --> 01:54:59,440
Speaker 1: had that vantage point with Richard Sherman too. I mean,

2300
01:54:59,480 --> 01:55:02,160
Speaker 1: there is that he's still that same player, and even

2301
01:55:02,200 --> 01:55:04,320
Speaker 1: though he's pretty much a surefire Hall of Famer, he

2302
01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:07,560
Speaker 1: still acts like everybody's against him, everybody's counting him out,

2303
01:55:07,640 --> 01:55:08,920
Speaker 1: and I feel like I don't want to give him

2304
01:55:08,920 --> 01:55:10,880
Speaker 1: credit for being a good player because of all that stuff. Well,

2305
01:55:10,880 --> 01:55:13,280
Speaker 1: I think that there's what I learned anyways talking to him.

2306
01:55:13,280 --> 01:55:16,240
Speaker 1: There is this this other side to him that just

2307
01:55:16,400 --> 01:55:19,600
Speaker 1: doesn't seem to kind of vibe with that. I mean,

2308
01:55:19,680 --> 01:55:22,920
Speaker 1: that's him on the field, and he does playoff of that.

2309
01:55:23,120 --> 01:55:25,080
Speaker 1: It's it's real. I mean, he really does feel that

2310
01:55:25,120 --> 01:55:27,720
Speaker 1: people are still counting him out after everything, and whether

2311
01:55:27,800 --> 01:55:29,440
Speaker 1: the slights a real or perceived. I mean that can

2312
01:55:29,480 --> 01:55:32,200
Speaker 1: be a dangerous thing for any player, But I think

2313
01:55:32,200 --> 01:55:35,360
Speaker 1: that this is somebody who really does treat people, you know,

2314
01:55:35,480 --> 01:55:39,960
Speaker 1: incredibly kind and generous. Since he was a kid. I mean,

2315
01:55:40,080 --> 01:55:42,440
Speaker 1: he's reached out to the homeless. His mom gave him

2316
01:55:42,440 --> 01:55:43,960
Speaker 1: twenty five bucks when he was like ten to eleven

2317
01:55:44,040 --> 01:55:46,200
Speaker 1: years old Koda McDonald's to get some food. He saw

2318
01:55:46,240 --> 01:55:48,200
Speaker 1: a homeless person there and just gave him, gave him

2319
01:55:48,200 --> 01:55:49,920
Speaker 1: his money. I mean he's kind of been that way

2320
01:55:50,000 --> 01:55:52,680
Speaker 1: his whole life. And it's, um, it's not for the cameras,

2321
01:55:52,720 --> 01:55:55,320
Speaker 1: it's not for show. I mean, he genuinely wishes people

2322
01:55:55,480 --> 01:55:58,920
Speaker 1: just treated people better in the world. I mean, I've

2323
01:55:58,960 --> 01:56:01,480
Speaker 1: really got the sense. So that's who he is. Where's

2324
01:56:01,480 --> 01:56:05,120
Speaker 1: he from from? Compton? Okay? Okay? So he does a

2325
01:56:05,200 --> 01:56:06,600
Speaker 1: lot in that area, does a lot in the Bay Area.

2326
01:56:06,720 --> 01:56:09,560
Speaker 1: And the thing that it goes gets lost in some

2327
01:56:09,720 --> 01:56:12,160
Speaker 1: of this is how intelligent he is. I mean, he's

2328
01:56:12,360 --> 01:56:15,600
Speaker 1: he's a really sharp, sharp individual. His lights are on

2329
01:56:15,760 --> 01:56:19,000
Speaker 1: all the time. He was that good in Seattle as

2330
01:56:19,040 --> 01:56:22,080
Speaker 1: a as a player and and as you know, high

2331
01:56:22,160 --> 01:56:24,040
Speaker 1: character as he isn't how as volatile as he is

2332
01:56:24,080 --> 01:56:26,160
Speaker 1: and as outspoken as he is, sometimes you overlooked the

2333
01:56:26,200 --> 01:56:28,280
Speaker 1: fact that a lot of times he's right, you know,

2334
01:56:28,880 --> 01:56:31,440
Speaker 1: and um, if you know so, he's and he's and

2335
01:56:31,480 --> 01:56:33,520
Speaker 1: he's very courageous too, because he does put it out there.

2336
01:56:33,680 --> 01:56:35,480
Speaker 1: And uh, in a in a world where you get

2337
01:56:35,760 --> 01:56:38,760
Speaker 1: chopped off for any little mistake you make in spelling,

2338
01:56:38,880 --> 01:56:42,320
Speaker 1: let alone in your ideas. Um, he's pretty sharp guy,

2339
01:56:42,320 --> 01:56:44,440
Speaker 1: and it's pretty hard to poke holes in most of

2340
01:56:44,480 --> 01:56:47,000
Speaker 1: the arguments that he makes, uh, for his team and

2341
01:56:47,080 --> 01:56:50,520
Speaker 1: for himself and about the league himself itself. He said,

2342
01:56:50,560 --> 01:56:52,760
Speaker 1: before the snap, when he you know, steps up to

2343
01:56:52,800 --> 01:56:55,440
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, he usually knows what plays coming.

2344
01:56:55,520 --> 01:56:57,640
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, seventy seventy five percent at the time,

2345
01:56:57,680 --> 01:56:59,560
Speaker 1: he knows exactly what not only what his receiver is

2346
01:56:59,560 --> 01:57:01,840
Speaker 1: going to do, but everybody. I mean he's seen everybody.

2347
01:57:01,840 --> 01:57:03,880
Speaker 1: He's kind of you know, Tom Brady at quarterback kind

2348
01:57:03,880 --> 01:57:06,160
Speaker 1: of has that same effect where there's nothing you can

2349
01:57:06,240 --> 01:57:09,920
Speaker 1: show this player that he hasn't seen before. Um. You know,

2350
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:12,000
Speaker 1: Charles Woodson gave him that advice a few years back.

2351
01:57:12,040 --> 01:57:13,720
Speaker 1: You got to play above the shoulders. I think that's

2352
01:57:13,720 --> 01:57:16,160
Speaker 1: why he's still playing at this high level. Yeah, he's

2353
01:57:16,160 --> 01:57:19,360
Speaker 1: athletic and everything, but towards Achilles, he's had all these injuries.

2354
01:57:20,560 --> 01:57:23,000
Speaker 1: You need something different, you need that edge, and you know,

2355
01:57:23,080 --> 01:57:25,120
Speaker 1: speaking this way, you can speak things into existence. I

2356
01:57:25,160 --> 01:57:28,120
Speaker 1: mean the San Francisco defense was what's pretty terrible a

2357
01:57:28,160 --> 01:57:30,440
Speaker 1: few years ago. They bring him in, they bring a

2358
01:57:30,520 --> 01:57:33,480
Speaker 1: lot of talent in. Like you said, he says these things,

2359
01:57:33,960 --> 01:57:37,200
Speaker 1: you better back it up. He backs it up. Yeah. Hey, um, Tyler,

2360
01:57:37,240 --> 01:57:40,280
Speaker 1: you spent what five years in Green Bay covering the Packers, right,

2361
01:57:40,760 --> 01:57:42,720
Speaker 1: how much of a different do you think Matt Lafleur

2362
01:57:42,800 --> 01:57:46,880
Speaker 1: has made for you know, the essential relationship, the relationship

2363
01:57:46,920 --> 01:57:48,640
Speaker 1: with this quarterback who I know you're very close with.

2364
01:57:49,560 --> 01:57:53,560
Speaker 1: We're not necessarily close that You're dead serious there for

2365
01:57:53,640 --> 01:57:58,760
Speaker 1: a second. You know what, It's interesting. Um. Aaron Rodgers

2366
01:57:58,760 --> 01:58:01,920
Speaker 1: had a few choice words for Greg Jennings after our

2367
01:58:02,120 --> 01:58:05,800
Speaker 1: story Bleach report came out, and Greg Jennings turns out

2368
01:58:05,960 --> 01:58:10,400
Speaker 1: he's one percent correct. What he said is, look, Aaron

2369
01:58:10,480 --> 01:58:12,920
Speaker 1: Rodgers can be part of the solution if he's willing

2370
01:58:12,960 --> 01:58:16,440
Speaker 1: to maybe swallow his ego, his pride, be willing to

2371
01:58:16,920 --> 01:58:19,480
Speaker 1: you know, run the plays that are called trust your head.

2372
01:58:19,520 --> 01:58:22,760
Speaker 1: Coach Lean on the running game like Tom Brady did

2373
01:58:22,960 --> 01:58:25,280
Speaker 1: last year with Sony Michelle to keep a Patrick Mahomes

2374
01:58:25,320 --> 01:58:27,040
Speaker 1: off the field. I mean, Aaron Jones is one of

2375
01:58:27,040 --> 01:58:29,560
Speaker 1: the best backs in the league. Brian Goodikins took over

2376
01:58:29,600 --> 01:58:31,880
Speaker 1: as GM for Ted Thompson, who you know has fallen

2377
01:58:31,960 --> 01:58:34,280
Speaker 1: asleep and meetings and having a lot of different health

2378
01:58:34,360 --> 01:58:36,760
Speaker 1: issues and probably should have been let go or left

2379
01:58:36,840 --> 01:58:40,160
Speaker 1: or resigned long before he did. All these things kind

2380
01:58:40,200 --> 01:58:42,760
Speaker 1: of change around Aaron Rodgers, and he was willing to change.

2381
01:58:42,840 --> 01:58:44,960
Speaker 1: He did change. He's not going out there, I think.

2382
01:58:45,040 --> 01:58:47,800
Speaker 1: I mean, at least from afar watching the games, it

2383
01:58:47,880 --> 01:58:50,360
Speaker 1: seems like he's not audibly out of place. I mean, yeah,

2384
01:58:50,360 --> 01:58:52,720
Speaker 1: he'll give a death stare to Matt Lafloor here and there.

2385
01:58:52,800 --> 01:58:57,240
Speaker 1: That's that's for sure. But in terms of production, he

2386
01:58:57,360 --> 01:58:59,560
Speaker 1: has been part of the solution. You know, he's not

2387
01:59:00,040 --> 01:59:02,880
Speaker 1: playing outside of himself, and he does have this better

2388
01:59:02,920 --> 01:59:05,040
Speaker 1: team around him. And I think that Greg Jennings, you know,

2389
01:59:05,560 --> 01:59:07,840
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is't gonna say it, but he was right. Yeah,

2390
01:59:08,400 --> 01:59:10,200
Speaker 1: So they don't have a chance on Sunday, you think

2391
01:59:10,240 --> 01:59:13,480
Speaker 1: the Niners are gonna win. I think pass rush is

2392
01:59:13,520 --> 01:59:15,800
Speaker 1: too good. I know that Aaron Rodgers this week has

2393
01:59:15,840 --> 01:59:18,640
Speaker 1: said that they kind of figured out maybe what went wrong,

2394
01:59:18,760 --> 01:59:21,680
Speaker 1: and healthy Brian Balaga helps. But um man, I mean,

2395
01:59:21,800 --> 01:59:24,640
Speaker 1: San Francisco can just rush from any angle. They've got

2396
01:59:24,680 --> 01:59:27,280
Speaker 1: the coverage on the back end. It'll be time. You know.

2397
01:59:27,360 --> 01:59:29,400
Speaker 1: Dante Adams is probably the difference in this game for

2398
01:59:29,480 --> 01:59:32,480
Speaker 1: green Bay because Richard Sherman is going to eliminate his

2399
01:59:32,560 --> 01:59:34,960
Speaker 1: half of the field. They don't move him around, he

2400
01:59:35,080 --> 01:59:38,760
Speaker 1: won't be shadowing DeVante Adams. So yeah, I mean Aaron

2401
01:59:38,840 --> 01:59:42,480
Speaker 1: Rodgers probably isn't gonna look over to Damante Richard Sherman's

2402
01:59:42,480 --> 01:59:44,520
Speaker 1: side like he didn't look over when he Sherman was

2403
01:59:44,560 --> 01:59:46,760
Speaker 1: in Seattle. But if they move Adams around, get him

2404
01:59:46,800 --> 01:59:48,680
Speaker 1: in the slot, give him to that other side, and

2405
01:59:48,800 --> 01:59:51,120
Speaker 1: if they give him some time and Max protect, green

2406
01:59:51,160 --> 01:59:53,480
Speaker 1: Bay may have a shot. But um see, at San

2407
01:59:53,520 --> 01:59:55,640
Speaker 1: Francisco at home, I take them all. Right. So you

2408
01:59:55,760 --> 01:59:58,880
Speaker 1: got San Francisco in Tennessee and the team urf the

2409
01:59:58,960 --> 02:00:01,520
Speaker 1: Titans going to the the ball. Did they have jugs

2410
02:00:01,600 --> 02:00:03,480
Speaker 1: right there in the locker right there? Oh, you got

2411
02:00:03,560 --> 02:00:05,120
Speaker 1: them right there. You can get them you know down

2412
02:00:05,160 --> 02:00:09,680
Speaker 1: at winners and losers in Midtown too in a great spot. Tyler,

2413
02:00:09,760 --> 02:00:11,080
Speaker 1: thanks for this. You have a new baby, a three

2414
02:00:11,120 --> 02:00:14,560
Speaker 1: month old baby daughter. How's that going well? Ella's amazing.

2415
02:00:14,920 --> 02:00:17,840
Speaker 1: Nothing like being a dad. My wife, Gina is doing fantastic.

2416
02:00:17,880 --> 02:00:21,520
Speaker 1: It's been awesome. Congratulations, thanks for coming by. We appreciate it.

2417
02:00:21,520 --> 02:00:22,800
Speaker 1: We got to get you in here during the season

2424
02:00:49,080 --> 02:00:50,440
Speaker 1: He's great. I don't know how do we have a

2425
02:00:50,520 --> 02:00:52,280
Speaker 1: mom before the season began and then we don't even

2426
02:00:52,320 --> 02:00:56,120
Speaker 1: mind until the season's over. Listen, everybody wants to be

2427
02:00:56,200 --> 02:00:58,160
Speaker 1: on our show. We just can't let roll out the

2428
02:00:58,240 --> 02:01:00,600
Speaker 1: red carpet for just anybody. Y we can't for that

2429
02:01:00,720 --> 02:01:03,240
Speaker 1: good yes, that kind of He can come back anytime

2430
02:01:03,280 --> 02:01:06,800
Speaker 1: he wants. Time Now for NFL True or False Brought

2431
02:01:06,840 --> 02:01:09,920
Speaker 1: to you by Yancy's Fancy New York artisan cheese. True

2432
02:01:10,040 --> 02:01:13,520
Speaker 1: or false, Derrick Henry will break the AFC Title game

2433
02:01:13,640 --> 02:01:16,640
Speaker 1: rushing record two hundred and twelve yards. You read this

2434
02:01:16,720 --> 02:01:19,440
Speaker 1: in your CBS notes. I think I might have let

2435
02:01:19,440 --> 02:01:25,360
Speaker 1: me see. I don't think you will know. I'd say false. Uh.

2436
02:01:25,600 --> 02:01:28,600
Speaker 1: You know he's had great games, a less three consecutive

2437
02:01:28,640 --> 02:01:30,680
Speaker 1: games one hundred and eighty yards or more rushing. But

2438
02:01:30,800 --> 02:01:33,280
Speaker 1: come on, man, we gotta put a stop to this. Man,

2439
02:01:33,440 --> 02:01:35,160
Speaker 1: we gotta put a stop to this Titans hype. And

2440
02:01:35,200 --> 02:01:37,280
Speaker 1: Tyler was as guilty as anybody. I mean, as much

2441
02:01:37,280 --> 02:01:39,560
Speaker 1: as I like him, that's all just hype. They're they're

2442
02:01:39,600 --> 02:01:41,760
Speaker 1: the flavor of the month Tennessee Titans, and they're about,

2443
02:01:41,800 --> 02:01:44,640
Speaker 1: to my senses, they're about to pack it in and

2444
02:01:45,040 --> 02:01:48,920
Speaker 1: go away on Sunday. Huh. I just don't think they're

2445
02:01:48,960 --> 02:01:50,760
Speaker 1: that good, Steve. I don't think they're that much better

2446
02:01:50,800 --> 02:01:52,800
Speaker 1: than the Buffalo Bills. It's not just because the Bills

2447
02:01:52,800 --> 02:01:55,480
Speaker 1: beat him well, player for player, I don't think that much.

2448
02:01:55,480 --> 02:01:58,000
Speaker 1: BET think the Bills are really really good. I think

2449
02:01:58,080 --> 02:01:59,840
Speaker 1: both teams are good. I think the Titans are good.

2450
02:01:59,880 --> 02:02:02,080
Speaker 1: I think the Bills are good. And there there's not

2451
02:02:02,200 --> 02:02:04,560
Speaker 1: that much difference between the Niners and the Packers and

2452
02:02:04,640 --> 02:02:08,400
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and the Bills, Titans, Baltimore Ravens. You know,

2453
02:02:08,640 --> 02:02:11,800
Speaker 1: I disagree. I think I think the Chiefs and the

2454
02:02:11,960 --> 02:02:15,080
Speaker 1: Niners are probably the two best teams in football. Twos

2455
02:02:15,120 --> 02:02:17,400
Speaker 1: are right behind him. Two hundred and seven yards is

2456
02:02:17,440 --> 02:02:20,520
Speaker 1: the AFC champs head then this was in this little thing?

2457
02:02:20,640 --> 02:02:23,800
Speaker 1: Oh who had the two hundred seven yards? Doesn't? Hey, man,

2458
02:02:23,840 --> 02:02:26,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. But no, he's not going to break

2459
02:02:26,560 --> 02:02:30,280
Speaker 1: the AFC title game resting record. No, it's not what

2460
02:02:30,360 --> 02:02:32,840
Speaker 1: do you think true or falls? I think true? He's

2461
02:02:32,880 --> 02:02:36,400
Speaker 1: going to gets the Chiefs. Man, they won't be able

2462
02:02:36,440 --> 02:02:38,440
Speaker 1: to run because they'll be so far behind they have

2463
02:02:38,480 --> 02:02:40,600
Speaker 1: to throw it, which leads us to question number two.

2464
02:02:40,680 --> 02:02:43,080
Speaker 1: True or falls? Ryan Tannehill to the Titans was the

2465
02:02:43,200 --> 02:02:47,720
Speaker 1: biggest payoff trade this season. No, false, This is Ryan Tannehill.

2466
02:02:47,760 --> 02:02:50,200
Speaker 1: Who was bigger? Let me think. I don't know, but

2467
02:02:50,800 --> 02:02:52,840
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill is not a difference maker. You know it

2468
02:02:52,880 --> 02:02:55,840
Speaker 1: was you complete a fifteen passes in the two. Even

2469
02:02:55,880 --> 02:02:59,040
Speaker 1: the Titans know that Ryan Tannehill is not anything special,

2470
02:02:59,280 --> 02:03:02,040
Speaker 1: they're playing around him. They're getting okay from him, They're

2471
02:03:02,120 --> 02:03:04,880
Speaker 1: getting decent play from him. He's nothing special. Even the

2472
02:03:04,960 --> 02:03:08,240
Speaker 1: Titans will tell you that. The question was was it

2473
02:03:08,400 --> 02:03:12,320
Speaker 1: was Ryan Tann's the biggest playoff payoff trade this season?

2474
02:03:12,400 --> 02:03:14,520
Speaker 1: Payoff who I don't even think of any other trades.

2475
02:03:14,600 --> 02:03:18,120
Speaker 1: It may be, I mean, the most beneficial because here's

2476
02:03:18,160 --> 02:03:21,480
Speaker 1: the thing, and he hasn't Yeah, okay, he's got a

2477
02:03:21,600 --> 02:03:28,800
Speaker 1: great quarterback rating, he's whatever else he's done for the Titans,

2478
02:03:30,000 --> 02:03:34,760
Speaker 1: but he's not the difference maker on this team. I

2479
02:03:34,920 --> 02:03:38,320
Speaker 1: get all of that, but I don't know. You can't deny,

2480
02:03:38,640 --> 02:03:40,320
Speaker 1: I guess is what I'm saying. They were tuned for

2481
02:03:40,480 --> 02:03:43,400
Speaker 1: when he took over, and then they started beating everybody,

2482
02:03:43,440 --> 02:03:46,440
Speaker 1: they started crushing it. So I'm having a hard time

2483
02:03:46,520 --> 02:03:48,720
Speaker 1: saying there was another trade in the NFL that made

2484
02:03:48,720 --> 02:03:50,760
Speaker 1: a bigger impact than that, because you can't deny the

2485
02:03:50,800 --> 02:03:53,880
Speaker 1: impact he had, and there everybody's pointing at it. I

2486
02:03:54,480 --> 02:03:58,120
Speaker 1: no question, he's not the engine that runs that offense.

2487
02:03:59,240 --> 02:04:02,760
Speaker 1: But they were just barely okay without him, and now

2488
02:04:02,840 --> 02:04:05,840
Speaker 1: with him, they're in the AFC Championship game. I'm saying, yeah,

2489
02:04:05,920 --> 02:04:09,080
Speaker 1: I think that was a pretty impactful trade for them,

2490
02:04:09,520 --> 02:04:15,800
Speaker 1: whether it was the difference maker and listen, I'm with you.

2491
02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:18,200
Speaker 1: I still think he's Ryan Tannehill. Yeah, I don't know

2492
02:04:18,240 --> 02:04:20,760
Speaker 1: who they think he is, but he's Ryan Tannehill. Now,

2493
02:04:20,880 --> 02:04:25,440
Speaker 1: certainly Derrick Henry is not you know, Charlie Bag of Donuts.

2494
02:04:25,760 --> 02:04:28,000
Speaker 1: That guy can play. Yes, that's the reason they're good.

2495
02:04:28,040 --> 02:04:30,320
Speaker 1: So Ryan Tannehill is who he is. But yeah, I

2496
02:04:30,440 --> 02:04:32,960
Speaker 1: think he's somehow he's paid off of the Titans and

2497
02:04:33,040 --> 02:04:36,320
Speaker 1: if he's got some sort of chemistry vibe thing going, Okay,

2498
02:04:36,640 --> 02:04:38,640
Speaker 1: I'm willing to say, yeah, that's true. That's the biggest

2499
02:04:38,840 --> 02:04:40,720
Speaker 1: I can't think of another trade this season that's been

2500
02:04:40,800 --> 02:04:45,280
Speaker 1: more impactful of a player for whatever they got. So

2501
02:04:45,360 --> 02:04:48,840
Speaker 1: I'll say yeah, I'll say true. Finally, NFL true or false?

2502
02:04:49,120 --> 02:04:51,600
Speaker 1: I like this one. The NFL should conduct an entire

2503
02:04:51,800 --> 02:04:55,520
Speaker 1: first round lottery to eliminate tanking. Well, can I give

2504
02:04:55,520 --> 02:04:58,760
Speaker 1: it a partial true? Maybe not the entire first round, Like,

2505
02:04:58,800 --> 02:05:00,120
Speaker 1: I don't think you have to have the super Per

2506
02:05:00,120 --> 02:05:03,360
Speaker 1: Bowl champion potentially getting the first, you know, the first

2507
02:05:03,400 --> 02:05:06,040
Speaker 1: overall pick. You might be able to do it by assigning,

2508
02:05:06,120 --> 02:05:08,160
Speaker 1: you know, putting the like the NHL does. You put

2509
02:05:08,200 --> 02:05:10,520
Speaker 1: the balls in a hopper and you get more balls

2510
02:05:10,520 --> 02:05:13,240
Speaker 1: in the hopper if you're the worst team. Okay, But yeah,

2511
02:05:13,280 --> 02:05:16,560
Speaker 1: I like that because I think the discussion about tanking

2512
02:05:16,720 --> 02:05:19,800
Speaker 1: is elevated now. Teams are talking more about tanking and

2513
02:05:20,040 --> 02:05:23,040
Speaker 1: losing on purpose to get I mean, the Dolphins went

2514
02:05:23,080 --> 02:05:26,440
Speaker 1: into the season talking about that, which puts a damper

2515
02:05:26,520 --> 02:05:29,240
Speaker 1: on their entire season. It wasn't the case once they

2516
02:05:29,320 --> 02:05:32,000
Speaker 1: started playing well, they didn't tank and they weren't going

2517
02:05:32,080 --> 02:05:33,800
Speaker 1: to tank. But yeah, I would, I'd be up for

2518
02:05:33,960 --> 02:05:36,880
Speaker 1: an investigation and something like this. Yes, yeah, I'm saying

2519
02:05:37,000 --> 02:05:39,400
Speaker 1: we disagreed on every one of these today, which is unusual.

2520
02:05:39,760 --> 02:05:43,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to say no, no, because there's no guarantee

2521
02:05:43,200 --> 02:05:44,920
Speaker 1: that anybody that you pick in this drafts they were

2522
02:05:44,960 --> 02:05:46,640
Speaker 1: gonna be able to help you at all you could

2523
02:05:46,680 --> 02:05:49,360
Speaker 1: There isn't. This isn't the NBA where one guy like

2524
02:05:49,440 --> 02:05:52,120
Speaker 1: a Lebron James or a Michael Jordan, or a Kareem

2525
02:05:52,160 --> 02:05:54,920
Speaker 1: abdul Jabbar or Wilt Chamberlain. You go down the list,

2526
02:05:55,000 --> 02:05:57,680
Speaker 1: Bill Russell, all the great players who can make a

2527
02:05:57,800 --> 02:06:00,560
Speaker 1: significant difference for a team, and certain even if it's

2528
02:06:00,560 --> 02:06:04,280
Speaker 1: a quarterback. Quarterbacks are a coin flip to begin with,

2529
02:06:04,520 --> 02:06:06,080
Speaker 1: Every single one of them as a coin flip. You

2530
02:06:06,520 --> 02:06:09,680
Speaker 1: locked statistics Peyton Manning. Every you go down the number

2531
02:06:09,720 --> 02:06:11,200
Speaker 1: of guys who've been picked in the first round of

2532
02:06:11,200 --> 02:06:13,520
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft as a quarterback, and it's a coin

2533
02:06:13,600 --> 02:06:16,520
Speaker 1: flip as to who's good and who's not. Even at

2534
02:06:16,560 --> 02:06:21,880
Speaker 1: the last minute, and with Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf,

2535
02:06:21,960 --> 02:06:23,280
Speaker 1: it was a coin flip as to which one of

2536
02:06:23,320 --> 02:06:24,840
Speaker 1: those guys we're gonna be good in One of them

2537
02:06:25,240 --> 02:06:27,760
Speaker 1: was an absolute atrocity and the other one was a

2538
02:06:27,840 --> 02:06:32,160
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. So it's it's why even try it.

2539
02:06:32,360 --> 02:06:36,680
Speaker 1: Just it's it's worked for a hundred years. It's a

2540
02:06:36,800 --> 02:06:39,000
Speaker 1: smart way to do it. If a team wants to

2541
02:06:39,080 --> 02:06:41,040
Speaker 1: do that, If their fan base wants to give them

2542
02:06:41,120 --> 02:06:43,640
Speaker 1: that slack, hey let them do it. Uh, there's no

2543
02:06:43,760 --> 02:06:45,920
Speaker 1: guarantees that it'll work, and they're gonna need a lot

2544
02:06:46,040 --> 02:06:48,040
Speaker 1: more than any one guy they get to the first

2545
02:06:48,080 --> 02:06:50,760
Speaker 1: pick of the draft to help them win games. Tampa

2546
02:06:50,840 --> 02:06:53,680
Speaker 1: Bay couldn't do it with Steve Young. Um. You can

2547
02:06:53,800 --> 02:06:58,160
Speaker 1: name other guys as too, Tim Couch, Ryan Leaf. You

2548
02:06:58,240 --> 02:07:00,120
Speaker 1: can go on and on down the list of this

2549
02:07:00,360 --> 02:07:03,640
Speaker 1: team's who stunk to get the guy and still stunk

2550
02:07:03,720 --> 02:07:06,240
Speaker 1: after him, and that guy was worse because of it.

2551
02:07:06,920 --> 02:07:12,400
Speaker 1: Alex Smith is a perfect example. Uh So there you go.

2552
02:07:12,640 --> 02:07:14,800
Speaker 1: I think I don't don't mess with it. It's it's

2553
02:07:14,880 --> 02:07:19,000
Speaker 1: too it's too big, too big a change. I think

2554
02:07:19,040 --> 02:07:21,120
Speaker 1: it's too big a risk of allowing a team that

2555
02:07:21,240 --> 02:07:24,080
Speaker 1: has what they've already got a guy like Peyton Manning

2556
02:07:24,200 --> 02:07:25,760
Speaker 1: or or Ryan Lee for a Tom Brady and now

2557
02:07:25,800 --> 02:07:27,720
Speaker 1: you're gonna give him the first pick of the draft potentially,

2558
02:07:27,880 --> 02:07:30,600
Speaker 1: and then what are you gonna do? So I no, no,

2559
02:07:30,880 --> 02:07:34,240
Speaker 1: just leave it alone. Okay, we disagree. We do everything

2560
02:07:34,280 --> 02:07:36,800
Speaker 1: we do today we did, yeah, not always today we

2561
02:07:36,880 --> 02:07:38,680
Speaker 1: did from the beginning of the show all the way through.

2562
02:07:40,800 --> 02:07:43,560
Speaker 1: I think you're headed for a vacation. Maybe that's it.

2563
02:07:44,120 --> 02:07:47,040
Speaker 1: Maybe that's a desperate need of a vacation. Coming back

2564
02:07:47,080 --> 02:07:49,120
Speaker 1: to wrap up the show in a minute, One Bill's Life,

2565
02:07:49,160 --> 02:07:52,200
Speaker 1: presented by Kalaida Health from the Seneca Studio on Archer Park.

2566
02:07:52,280 --> 02:08:03,320
Speaker 1: This is Buffalo Bill's Radio. So what do we learn

2567
02:08:03,440 --> 02:08:06,480
Speaker 1: from today's show? Brought to you by Skyworks, the official

2568
02:08:06,560 --> 02:08:10,240
Speaker 1: construction equipment rental company of the Buffalo Bills. Made our

2569
02:08:10,240 --> 02:08:12,960
Speaker 1: buddy Great Cosell on at one o'clock this afternoon, talked

2570
02:08:12,960 --> 02:08:15,440
Speaker 1: about the packers using the run game to beat San

2571
02:08:15,520 --> 02:08:19,760
Speaker 1: Francisco on Sunday. Here's what he said. But I think

2572
02:08:19,800 --> 02:08:22,000
Speaker 1: there has to be some meaningful run game for the

2573
02:08:22,080 --> 02:08:26,840
Speaker 1: Packers because that d line for the forty nine Ers

2574
02:08:27,000 --> 02:08:29,720
Speaker 1: is really good, particularly they're Nickel front. Not only do

2575
02:08:29,760 --> 02:08:32,000
Speaker 1: they have good players, but they're really multiple in what

2576
02:08:32,160 --> 02:08:35,440
Speaker 1: they do. So I think the run game is important.

2577
02:08:35,440 --> 02:08:38,000
Speaker 1: And studying this forty nine Ers defense, one thing that

2578
02:08:38,120 --> 02:08:40,800
Speaker 1: showed up on tape and then the numbers did validate

2579
02:08:40,880 --> 02:08:43,760
Speaker 1: it is they've struggled to stop the run when they're

2580
02:08:43,760 --> 02:08:46,840
Speaker 1: in there Nickel, and I'm wondering if maybe the Packers

2581
02:08:46,920 --> 02:08:49,040
Speaker 1: they're going if I know what they know it, let's

2582
02:08:49,120 --> 02:08:51,600
Speaker 1: be realistic here. I'm wondering if they'll line up with

2583
02:08:51,720 --> 02:08:54,440
Speaker 1: Rogers and the gun Aaron Jones offset and run the

2584
02:08:54,560 --> 02:08:58,080
Speaker 1: ball out of three wide receivers and try to develop

2585
02:08:58,240 --> 02:08:59,800
Speaker 1: some kind of run game, because I do think they

2586
02:09:00,040 --> 02:09:03,000
Speaker 1: need some volume and some production added that run game.

2587
02:09:03,160 --> 02:09:04,800
Speaker 1: I don't think this can be just a game where

2588
02:09:04,840 --> 02:09:08,160
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers drops back forty five fifty times by choice.

2589
02:09:09,000 --> 02:09:11,520
Speaker 1: Good point from great co Cell. Also, just moments ago,

2590
02:09:11,600 --> 02:09:14,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Dunn and Bleacher Report joined us here on the

2591
02:09:14,280 --> 02:09:17,600
Speaker 1: set Tyler Dunn talked about Tennessee defense. He says Tennessee

2592
02:09:17,720 --> 02:09:20,280
Speaker 1: is a chance against Kansas City because they know how

2593
02:09:20,320 --> 02:09:24,120
Speaker 1: to play Patrick Mahomes. W Here's what he said. They

2594
02:09:24,200 --> 02:09:26,040
Speaker 1: expect to get turnovers. I mean that's what they did

2595
02:09:26,080 --> 02:09:28,960
Speaker 1: against Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson had like five hundred yards,

2596
02:09:29,000 --> 02:09:32,440
Speaker 1: but the game plan was get him moving. Latterly, they

2597
02:09:32,480 --> 02:09:34,760
Speaker 1: didn't waste the defender on a spy. They try to

2598
02:09:34,800 --> 02:09:37,080
Speaker 1: disguise stuff on the back end. They pressured him. They

2599
02:09:37,160 --> 02:09:40,360
Speaker 1: forced those turnovers. I think what Tennessee's defense does so well, guys,

2600
02:09:40,400 --> 02:09:42,600
Speaker 1: I mean they changed their game plan week to week,

2601
02:09:43,200 --> 02:09:45,160
Speaker 1: unlike anybody in the league. I mean, you're going against

2602
02:09:45,200 --> 02:09:47,960
Speaker 1: Tom Brady one week, who's about as a different from

2603
02:09:48,000 --> 02:09:50,920
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's you could ask for. It's a different challenge

2604
02:09:50,920 --> 02:09:53,320
Speaker 1: in Patrick Mahomes. But I tell you they're confident. I

2605
02:09:53,400 --> 02:09:55,240
Speaker 1: mean they pointed to that last game and said, yeah,

2606
02:09:55,240 --> 02:09:57,760
Speaker 1: he put up all those yards. But Kenny mccaros says,

2607
02:09:57,800 --> 02:09:59,640
Speaker 1: I dropped an interception to first play of the game

2608
02:10:00,040 --> 02:10:02,960
Speaker 1: Ray Jackson and one balance off his chest. They've got

2609
02:10:03,000 --> 02:10:05,720
Speaker 1: those playmakers. I think to just just do enough on defense,

2610
02:10:05,800 --> 02:10:08,240
Speaker 1: just because Mahome's gonna see it up. He's gonna he's

2611
02:10:08,240 --> 02:10:10,920
Speaker 1: a gun slinger. He's gonna give him those opportunities. Tyler

2612
02:10:11,000 --> 02:10:13,440
Speaker 1: Dunn from Bleacher Report, we thank him for coming on.

2613
02:10:13,600 --> 02:10:16,880
Speaker 1: You know, Tyler feels pretty strongly that the Tennessee Titans

2614
02:10:16,960 --> 02:10:19,200
Speaker 1: have a good chance to win that game on Sunday.

2615
02:10:19,480 --> 02:10:22,240
Speaker 1: Our Twitter poll today, we ask folks what the Super

2616
02:10:22,240 --> 02:10:24,720
Speaker 1: Bowl is gonna be. Who's gonna win on Sunday? Forty

2617
02:10:24,800 --> 02:10:26,360
Speaker 1: four percent say it's gonna be the Chiefs and the

2618
02:10:26,440 --> 02:10:28,920
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers. Thirty nine percent say the Chiefs and

2619
02:10:29,000 --> 02:10:32,080
Speaker 1: the Packers. Only ten percent think the Titans will win

2620
02:10:32,240 --> 02:10:34,920
Speaker 1: and play the forty nine ers. Only seven percent think

2621
02:10:34,960 --> 02:10:37,120
Speaker 1: the Titans will win and play the Packers. I don't

2622
02:10:37,160 --> 02:10:39,160
Speaker 1: think the Titans will win. I don't think they'll get

2623
02:10:39,160 --> 02:10:41,040
Speaker 1: close to winning. Steve. I think it's gonna be the

2624
02:10:41,400 --> 02:10:43,360
Speaker 1: Kidsas City Chiefs and the Green Bay Packers. I'm with

2625
02:10:43,440 --> 02:10:45,600
Speaker 1: the thirty nine percent there. Yeah, I think the Chiefs

2626
02:10:45,600 --> 02:10:47,600
Speaker 1: and one. I'm taking the favorites in both games. I'm

2627
02:10:47,640 --> 02:10:49,960
Speaker 1: taking the Niners and the Chiefs. I think both those

2628
02:10:50,000 --> 02:10:52,840
Speaker 1: teams are playing well. All four of these teams. Unlike

2629
02:10:52,880 --> 02:10:54,880
Speaker 1: the percentages we see in our Twitter poll. All these

2630
02:10:54,920 --> 02:10:57,560
Speaker 1: teams can win. They're playing that good and they're talented

2631
02:10:57,680 --> 02:11:01,400
Speaker 1: enough and can make things happen. For that reason, it's

2632
02:11:01,600 --> 02:11:06,520
Speaker 1: I would anticipate close championship games. Certainly you can construe

2633
02:11:06,520 --> 02:11:07,720
Speaker 1: it in the fact that, well, the Chiefs if they

2634
02:11:07,760 --> 02:11:09,480
Speaker 1: start scoring, I don't know if Tennessee can keep up,

2635
02:11:09,480 --> 02:11:11,080
Speaker 1: and that's a big doubt in my mind as well.

2636
02:11:11,400 --> 02:11:13,840
Speaker 1: But I'm taking both and for that reason, I'm taking

2637
02:11:13,880 --> 02:11:15,920
Speaker 1: both favorites. I'm taking the Kansas City Chiefs at home

2638
02:11:15,960 --> 02:11:18,480
Speaker 1: against the Tennessee Titans, and I'm taking the San Francisco

2639
02:11:18,520 --> 02:11:20,640
Speaker 1: forty nine ers at home against the Green Bay Packers.

2640
02:11:21,480 --> 02:11:24,840
Speaker 1: I anticipate a really good week into football, but I

2641
02:11:24,960 --> 02:11:27,080
Speaker 1: think that's that's what's going to be. This is fun

2642
02:11:27,200 --> 02:11:30,120
Speaker 1: picking the favorites. I know, it's I know I rarely

2643
02:11:30,240 --> 02:11:32,280
Speaker 1: do just because of that, But I'm taking the favorites.

2644
02:11:32,440 --> 02:11:37,400
Speaker 1: How anti Tannehill are we? I mean me, maybe we

2645
02:11:37,800 --> 02:11:41,040
Speaker 1: all have emotional baggage about him. We've seen him against

2646
02:11:41,080 --> 02:11:43,520
Speaker 1: the Bills. With the Dolphins, he had been awful for

2647
02:11:43,600 --> 02:11:45,600
Speaker 1: the most part, and he was awful against them Bills

2648
02:11:45,640 --> 02:11:48,800
Speaker 1: teams that weren't all that great too, you know the

2649
02:11:48,920 --> 02:11:53,840
Speaker 1: thing about it. So yeah, I'm just not sold on him.

2650
02:11:53,880 --> 02:11:55,920
Speaker 1: I get it. He's on a different team, fresh start,

2651
02:11:56,040 --> 02:12:00,280
Speaker 1: new vibe, all of that. It's Ryan Tannehill I have.

2652
02:12:03,240 --> 02:12:05,080
Speaker 1: He ain't gonna be able to keep up with Pat Mahomes.

2653
02:12:05,120 --> 02:12:06,840
Speaker 1: I don't think there is to it. And I think

2654
02:12:07,640 --> 02:12:10,360
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry and all that and their high percentage red

2655
02:12:10,440 --> 02:12:12,800
Speaker 1: zone and they're gonna shorten the game, and a man,

2656
02:12:12,880 --> 02:12:15,400
Speaker 1: I don't buy it. The Chiefs are gonna light that

2657
02:12:15,520 --> 02:12:18,160
Speaker 1: place up. And the Chiefs defense all they need is

2658
02:12:18,200 --> 02:12:21,640
Speaker 1: what two stops, because I'll tell you what. The Titans,

2659
02:12:21,680 --> 02:12:23,480
Speaker 1: I don't think they can stop the Chiefs. I don't either.

2660
02:12:23,800 --> 02:12:25,560
Speaker 1: And I know they're they're a decent defense, but I

2661
02:12:25,600 --> 02:12:27,360
Speaker 1: don't think they can. All Right, we'll see. Do we

2662
02:12:27,440 --> 02:12:29,200
Speaker 1: argue too much today? I don't think so. I don't

2663
02:12:29,200 --> 02:12:32,040
Speaker 1: know what. We have a minute left? You want to

2664
02:12:32,080 --> 02:12:35,440
Speaker 1: talk about the Houston Astros again? No, I'm done, me too.

2665
02:12:35,920 --> 02:12:37,680
Speaker 1: If a guy who doesn't follow baseball, you have some

2666
02:12:37,760 --> 02:12:41,000
Speaker 1: pretty strong opinions about baseball. This is a much easier

2667
02:12:41,080 --> 02:12:45,160
Speaker 1: story to follow than a game. Right moves faster, It

2668
02:12:45,240 --> 02:12:47,880
Speaker 1: moves a lot faster. More activity Twitter is a lot

2669
02:12:47,960 --> 02:12:50,440
Speaker 1: more lively when they've got a lot of righteous indignation

2670
02:12:50,560 --> 02:12:53,960
Speaker 1: fining around, right. Yeah, Twitter's lively. Yeah, it's lively. Hey,

2671
02:12:54,200 --> 02:12:56,720
Speaker 1: we have no show Monday, no show Tuesday, the holiday,
