What you saw that you 16 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: liked and you didn't like? Your opportunity to be part 17 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 1: of the festivities. NFL fans probably don't like to think 18 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: about kickers that much, but we had no choice. Yesterday. 19 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: Kickers miss twelve field goals twelve extra points. That was 20 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: well pretty exciting if you like watching ineptitude, the most 21 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,199 Speaker 1: extra points missed since twenty sixteen, and the ultimate kicking 22 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: nightmare took place in Cincinnati. Now, I thought the Bengals 23 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: were going to beat the Packers. So I'm watching this 24 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: game and I'm thinking, how does this end? How does 25 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: this end in heartbreak for the Cincinnati Bengals. Well, the 26 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 1: Packers gave them every opportunity. The two kickers combined to 27 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: miss five potential game winning field goals. Eventually Mason Crosby 28 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: hit one, but it was ugly. Ever since the league 29 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: moved the extra point back in twenty fifteen, it's added 30 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: a sense of adventure here and it makes the play 31 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: much more exciting. Used to be a team score a 32 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: touchdown and then you would go get a beer because 33 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: you thought, well, it's a formality. Not anymore. Some cool 34 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: end of the game scenarios. But you don't want football 35 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: to come down to kickers, but it did. Sunday was 36 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: a rough day. But we've also seen kickers do some 37 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: pretty amazing things, justin Tucker that sixty six yard or 38 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: that helped the Ravens beat the Lions in Week three. 39 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: We've seen some teams lose because of their kickers. Like 40 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:10,959 Speaker 1: it or not, it's a big part of the game 41 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: that's not going to change. Anytime soon. So many games 42 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: to recap. The Bills are for real, roughing up the Chiefs, 43 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, the Cowboys, role Chargers, Browns with spectacular the 44 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: Cardinals quietly five and ozho but injury concerns. Starting with 45 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 1: their quarterback. College football, A and M surprises Alabama. Georgia 46 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 1: now number one in the country, rolls Auburn. Paul Feinbaum, 47 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: the voice of the SEC, will join us a little 48 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 1: bit later. On Iowa over Penn State. I watched it 49 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: and I thought Penn State is going to somehow lose 50 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: this game, because I thought Penn State was better than Iowa. 51 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: But I give them credit. Defense ran the football and 52 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: they pull out the win. Oklahoma against Texas, I thought 53 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: Texas was going to win that game and win that 54 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 1: game comfortably. And then they were winning that game comfortably, 55 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: and then they started to lose uncomfortably, and all of 56 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: a sudden, Oklahoma may have a different quarterback. I know. 57 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: There was all this Spencer Rattler talk, and I was 58 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 1: in the minority. I was not buying into it because 59 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: I saw him last year where he got benched, And 60 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you start to wonder, is Oklahoma 61 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: at the crossroads here with a freshman quarterback Caleb Williams, 62 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: or they're going to stay with Spencer Ratler. And I 63 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: know it's one game, but here's something to consider because 64 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: if you're Spencer Rattler and he loses his starting job 65 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: to a freshman, does he then start start thinking about 66 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: transferring so he gets an opportunity to kind of reclaim 67 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: a first round draft pick status. Just something to file 68 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: away here. I'm not sure when Lincoln Riley's going to do, 69 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: but what I saw in Williams was enough for him 70 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: to get the starting job. Yeah. Set Unfortunately for Spencer Ratler, 71 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: Oklahoma is the kind of place that you enter the 72 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: transfer portal to go to to get a second chance 73 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: and get a Heisman. That's a good point. That's unfortunate. Yes, 74 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: it is.

Did Buffalo win 83 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: this game? Mistakes by the Chiefs. Now we want to 84 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: look at as Josh Allen on par with Patrick Mahomes. 85 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: Is he better than Patrick Mahomes? Do you realize? On 86 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: the Fox pregame show, Jimmy Johnson said he would take 87 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert over Patrick Mahomes. I understand Justin Herbert's going 88 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: to jon us on the program tomorrow, but you know, 89 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: we get caught up in what did you do this 90 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: week this month? And I need to see a little 91 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 1: bit more before I would crown a new king in 92 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: the AFC West or the AFC overall. Because Josh Allen 93 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: is doing what you want your quarterback to do. I 94 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 1: worried about the pressure that he had on him because 95 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 1: I thought, and I know I've said this before, he 96 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: was a valuable to his team as anybody was last 97 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: year and that includes Aaron Rodgers and Rogers had a 98 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: spectacular year and was the MVP. But you're asking a 99 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: young player, hey, you need to make plays, and you 100 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: saw that last night. The moment wasn't too big for him. 101 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: And if you start to look at their previous games, 102 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 1: and we can look at schedule and say, all right, 103 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, are they that good? Washington, Texans in the Chiefs, 104 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: but here the last four they shut out the Dolphins 105 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 1: thirty five to nothing. They beat Washington forty three twenty one. 106 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: They shut out the Texans forty to nothing, and then 107 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 1: you beat the Chiefs thirty eight twenty So the aggregate 108 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,119 Speaker 1: score one fifty six to forty one, the average score 109 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: thirty nine to ten. You win games, You have close 110 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: games sometimes. You know, you saw the Patriots against the 111 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: Texans and they had to pull that game out. Buffalo's 112 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: not even getting into that situation, which I love. You know, 113 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: we're not gonna we don't play close games, at least 114 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: not right now. Kansas City's always playing close games. They 115 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: would have loved to have had a closer game. But 116 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: you're watching Buffalo play a solid football game. Dallas. I 117 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: watched a lot of that game. I know it's the Giants, 118 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: but you're just looking for consistency because you think, sometimes, well, 119 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: when's Dallas going to lose the game that you don't 120 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: expect them to lose? And they got the win yesterday. 121 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: They ran the football. The Giants, you know they're gonna 122 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: be hit or miss the entire season. Chargers against the 123 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: Browns was wonderful because that's one of those games where 124 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: you're thinking there's a lot of defensive stars and there 125 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: was very little defense in there. That shootout was awesome. 126 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: If you would have said, hey, this is a big 127 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: twelve game, I would have said, absolutely, that's what it 128 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: felt like. It was back and forth, but the Chargers 129 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,559 Speaker 1: picking up the win, and you can make a case 130 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: the Chargers second best team in the AFC behind the 131 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. If you're a fan of the Chargers, and 132 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: I've been a fan for fifteen years, it feels like 133 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: they lose those kind of games. That's what's really important. 134 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: You're winning those games. The Buccaneers and Tom Brady. You know, 135 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised anymore. You just watch and I just 136 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: enjoy it. I don't go wow. If you said, hey, 137 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: Tom's going to give a master class, and then you 138 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: go on the internet and you get to dial up masterclass, 139 00:07:56,080 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: well he does that on Sunday and five touchdowns. You know, 140 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,119 Speaker 1: we get caught up in sometimes. Oh yeah, but who's 141 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: he playing against Okay, he's still playing against NFL players. 142 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: It's just he looked great, he looked comfortable. He had 143 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: his longest run, and I think in a long time 144 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: they've gotten scampered. I don't think scampered ever has ever 145 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: been used with Tom Brady, but I had a long 146 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: run yesterday, and you know he gets everybody else involved. 147 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,119 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown, I was wrong on him. I was thinking, 148 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: are you going to bring him back again? And he's 149 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: been great. You know, you start, you start to look 150 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: after five weeks, and I think you get a pretty 151 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: good handle on it on a team. You gotta wait 152 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 1: that first month or maybe a little bit longer, but 153 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 1: five six games that's when you get a pretty good 154 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: sample size here. And I think we've gotten that on 155 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: a few teams. Whether they're going to be good, great, 156 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: a little bit better than average, or they're just going 157 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: to be bad. Yeah, Paul. One thing Tom doesn't do 158 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: on a run is for contact. Like Daniel Jones put 159 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: his head down and got knocked himself out. Tom Brady 160 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 1: he got like seven yards and his run said that's good, 161 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: that's good for this year. Yeah, that's the difference between 162 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: somebody who's twenty four and forty four. You got to 163 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: be smart in a situation like that. Yeah, McLevin, I 164 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 1: can't believe he's so good at climbing up cliffs, because 165 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: I thought he fell off the cliff in the rain 166 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: last week against New England as well. Whether there are 167 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: some people who were saying, oh man, he's fault. They've 168 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: lost bad to the Rams and then it feels like 169 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: it's every year. At some point, you know, we start 170 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: to question, is this is this the year? And then 171 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Tom's holding up a trophy any 172 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: other referendums than anybody has that making statements. McLevin well, 173 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: I was wondering with Baker may feel good yesterday. I 174 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: know he had a good line, but I feel like 175 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: he has the best running backs in the world, so 176 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people could play well there. 177 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what to make of it. He started 178 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: out red hot and then they somehow lost the game. Yeah, 179 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: it was just back and forth, and you had all 180 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: of those points scored in the fourth quarter. But you know, 181 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: we look at Justin Herbert, so Herbert overshadows Baker Mayfield. 182 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: It's that running game. Where was the defense? That was 183 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: kind of surprising there as well. Yeah, remember I asked 184 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: you about I'm like Joey Bosa's unstoppable, Miles Garrett's unstoppable. 185 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,199 Speaker 1: They showed yesterday they just like they pushed them in 186 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: the middle and ran around the side to avoid them. 187 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: So you can't dominate from that position. No, that's why 188 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald is so valuable. And I do think you'll 189 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 1: see more and more teams looking for that interior defensive 190 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,719 Speaker 1: lineman who makes the quarterback move right or left. By 191 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: the way, there are a lot of quarterbacks who run, 192 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: and they run too much, and but that comes with youth. 193 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: You think that you're impenetrable, that you can you can 194 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: outrun somebody. And I see this with Josh Allen justin 195 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: Herbert yesterday. Baker may feel like they run. You know, 196 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: as you get older, they won't run as much. Now 197 00:10:57,960 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: there's a reason for that. They'll slow down. But they 198 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:03,719 Speaker 1: also the game, you know, slows down a little bit 199 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 1: more where they go through their progressions when they're doing 200 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: their reads. But you see that with younger quarterbacks. They 201 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 1: think that they're still in college and they can get 202 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 1: past you. But Daniel Jones yesterday knocked himself out basically 203 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: helmet to helmet contact. All right, what's the poll question? Okay, 204 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: I like this one from Paul because it's both sports. 205 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: If you had about a week's pay, who's more likely 206 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: to reach the title game? The Kansas City Chiefs or 207 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: the Alabama Crimson Tide. Oh it's Alabama? Okay, yeah, yeah, 208 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: I mean Alabama lost in a shootout. You don't expect that. 209 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: It's an unranked Texas A and M team, But no, 210 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: I still think Alabama, with two losses is probably playing 211 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Yeah, point, are you off the Chiefs? 212 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,599 Speaker 1: Are off? Off the Chiefs? Oh, I'm just off the 213 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: Chiefs right now, but lightly off. Well, they're not better 214 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: than the Chargers of the Bills. Who's better than Alabama 215 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: this year? Maybe Georgia. Texas A and M fans think 216 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: so today they're still hungover. Well, they got one week 217 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 1: to enjoy. That's funny. This way, you want to bet 218 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 1: on where A and M is at the end of 219 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: the year, in Alabama is at the end of the year, 220 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: I'll take on allcomers there. Alabama lost the game. Give 221 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: credit to A and M. You know it's great for 222 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: college football, by the way. All right, let me take 223 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: a break. We'll settle on a pull question.

Today, 248 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: it's been a mess with extra points field goals. You 249 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: saw that on display yesterday. Back in twenty thirteen, the 250 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: league percentage of extra points made was ninety nine point 251 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: six percent, highest in the history of the NFL. Since 252 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: the new rule, that percentage has gone down every season. 253 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: This season, it's ninety two point four percent, the lowest 254 00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: since nineteen seventy nine. This season, so far, thirty extra 255 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: points have been missed. In the entire twenty thirteen season, 256 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: a total of five extra points were missed. Stat of 257 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 1: the day, stat of the day, That beast stat of 258 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: the day. Stat of the day. Here comes that? What 259 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: stat of the day? All right, what's pull question? We're 260 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: gonna go with him. We'll get to Albert Breer, the 261 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: Monday morning quarterback. Well, I think I want to start 262 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: with the kicking question. Do kickers have too much influence 263 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: on the game? Yes? Or no? Because I followed Twitter 264 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: yesterday and people either love the kickers or wanted to 265 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: get rid of this long extra point. So how am 266 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: I going to de emphasize the kicker? Just move the 267 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: extra point back to two. It's too late now because 268 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: it's too exciting, right, Yeah, I'll tell you who's de 269 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: emphasize their kicking game. The Chargers because their head coach 270 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: likes to go for it on fourth down. And you 271 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: saw that yesterday. And I don't know if he's got 272 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: supreme confidence in his offense or maybe not as much 273 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: confidence in his kicking game, but he says, we're not gambling. 274 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: It's strategic in what they're doing, and you saw that yesterday. 275 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: He's not afraid. What else do you have? Mccleuven. Also, 276 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: who is coming out of the AFC or the Bills 277 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: versus a field? Is that a fair poll question? Yeah? 278 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: I kind of want to start with it. I think 279 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: people are into the Bills. Pi's a home field advantage 280 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: throughout the playoffs. Yeah, I would feel like that in 281 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: that division because I think I'm gonna be wrong on 282 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: New England. I thought they were a playoff team. They 283 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: barely survived against the Techs and Davis Mills look really 284 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: good as a rookie. You know that doesn't happen against 285 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick, But yeah, I would think Buffalo because I'm 286 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: not sure anybody else is going to have that record 287 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: to compete with him for home field. Yes, mccleb. Yeah. 288 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: The other question do is I was wondering who has 289 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: the easier cakewalk the Bills in that division, the Cowboys 290 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: in their division. Maybe the Titans. Piece of the rest 291 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: of AFC South isn't lining up as well. You know 292 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: that Julio Jones contract not looking that good for the 293 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: Titans so far, because I thought you got two elite 294 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: wide receivers, a running game, Tannehill has been a good quarterback. 295 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: You throw in some defense like Vrabel's toughness that division, 296 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: and I thought the Titans were gonna be a great team. 297 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: Well maybe not. Albert Breer's senior NFL reporter and lead 298 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: content strategist for the Monday Morning Quarterback, joining us on 299 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: the program. Albert, where you want to start? You want 300 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: to like, you want a good theory on why the 301 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: longer extra points mess with kickers? Sure? So, like what 302 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: I've heard from a few special teams coaches over the 303 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: last few years that I think is sort of interesting 304 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: is that kickers used to use the extra point to 305 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: work out kinks. So if they felt something was a 306 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: little off, or they thought this or that was wrong, 307 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: the extra point gave them an in game opportunity to 308 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: sort of work on something that wasn't that that was 309 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: either wrong or didn't feel quite right, you know, within 310 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: their stroke. And so you take that away from them, 311 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden, it sort of messes 312 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: with the whole equilibrium of being a kicker, and they 313 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: don't have an in game opportunity to sort of work 314 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: out things that they did before. So I don't know, 315 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: That's just one theory out there that I thought was 316 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 1: kind of interesting, and that, like, you know, kicking such 317 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: a mental game, and you know, they used to have 318 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 1: each guy used to have this outlet where he could 319 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: kind of work on things, and now that outlet has 320 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: been taken away. I wish there was a deep dive 321 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 1: a study of kickers where you just got into their 322 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: heads of what they go through, because they're really ostracized. 323 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: You know, they're not really a football player until they 324 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: come into a game and they can win or lose 325 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: a game and I can't imagine Mason Crosby yesterday that 326 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: you're missing these field goals. You don't miss field goals, 327 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: then you got to go out there and kick another 328 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: field goal. Just the whole mind game that is played 329 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:46,239 Speaker 1: that kickers, you know, play with themselves. I don't know, 330 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: it's it's something that is probably not quantifiable in trying 331 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: to understand what these guys go through every day or 332 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: every week. And I talked to him after the game, 333 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 1: which was it was interesting because I asked him about 334 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: this conversation he had with Matt Lafloor and he had 335 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 1: missed He hadn't just missed three straight kicks, Dan, He'd 336 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 1: missed like kicks on three straight possessions. Right, So the 337 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: Packers had three possessions in a row that ended with 338 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: miss field goals, and on top of that, the other 339 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: kicker had missed a couple, which I mean just sort 340 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: of I think would add to it, you know, like 341 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: that this is just really weird what's going on in 342 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 1: the stadium. And Floyd comes over to him and says, like, 343 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: what do you think? And he said, I got this. 344 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: And it wasn't a short field goal either, I think 345 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 1: was what forty nine yards, and so you know, I mean, 346 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: I think like there's there's like this. I guess it's 347 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: almost like I think the best way to the best 348 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: thing to compare it to is being a golfer, right, 349 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: like a golfer who can compartmentalize just kind of a 350 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: slump and you know, you you know, you have three 351 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: four bad holes in a row, and somehow where the 352 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: rest of us would be out there and we'd be 353 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 1: all over the place on the fourth or fifth hole 354 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: in that string. These the best kickers have have an 355 00:18:55,840 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: ability to compartmentalize struggles maybe the way that a good 356 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: golfer does. And it's I think the other thing that's 357 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: sort of interesting in comparing the two is just being 358 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: a little bit off can mean everything is wrong, you know. 359 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: And so I just think that the psychology of the 360 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: kickers really really interesting. And you think back to some 361 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 1: of the guys like like Scott Norwood, where one kick 362 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 1: just like sort of like who's a really good kicker 363 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: just basically ended his career. He never got it right 364 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: after that. And then you think about a guy who's 365 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: you know, missing kicks on three straight possessions and he's 366 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 1: playing on a team where you know, every loss could 367 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: be one more or one at every loss could be 368 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: one fewer game at Lambeau in January. The pressure of 369 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: that and everything else, being able to compartmentalize it, that's 370 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: definitely a skill. Yeah. With the golfer, you got to 371 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: play your missus h you know, as they always talk about, 372 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 1: a kicker doesn't get that opportunity if you miss and 373 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: then you get it, you know, another chance to go 374 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: up and go, oh, we'll be able to try that again. 375 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: The worst loss yesterday was turned in by the worst 376 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: loss yesterday. You you know, like like I don't think 377 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: the Chiefs losing to the Bills was a bad loss 378 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: per se, but I like think that this is sort 379 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: of reason for concern. Now they've you know, they've they've 380 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,199 Speaker 1: lost three or five and some of the pieces that 381 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: they've brought in aren't coming together the way that maybe 382 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,479 Speaker 1: they'd hope they'd had. They're older on you know, in 383 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: some positions, you know, with guys like Tyrn Matthew and 384 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 1: Frank Clark are getting a little bit further on in 385 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 1: years on defense, and then younger and other positions on 386 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: defense with guys like Nick Bolton, and then they've got 387 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: all these new pitch all these new guys on the 388 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: offensive line, Like, I just I wonder how it's going 389 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: to come together. I wonder how long it's going to 390 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 1: take to come together, because I think anybody's paying attention 391 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: to what the Chiefs did this offseason new it might 392 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 1: take a little while for all of that to come together. 393 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: But I you know, like like I don't know what 394 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: they expected that they would get their doors blown off 395 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: by Buffalo in Week five and so um, you know, 396 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 1: I just think the process in Kansas City's taking a 397 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: little bit longer. I don't know, there's not like a 398 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 1: particularly like embarrassing loss. I thought the Raiders losing to 399 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: the Bears and they had a good September. We were 400 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: talking about Derek Carr MVP, and now you lose to 401 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: Justin Fields and Home. And let's not ignore the elephant 402 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,959 Speaker 1: on the couch there either. I mean, you know, like 403 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 1: you know, John Gruden going through you know what he's 404 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: what he's what he's gone through the last three days, 405 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,160 Speaker 1: and the fact that, like I think that a lot 406 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 1: of people across the league, not just people in the 407 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: Raiders building, and people across the league were paying attention 408 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 1: like how's that team going to respond to him, now, 409 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: you know, because I mean something like this happens, and 410 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: I think the honest question for everybody in that locker 411 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: room as well, if you put that in an email, 412 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 1: what else is he saying? And I'm not calling John 413 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: a liar, I don't know, you know whether or not 414 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 1: you know what he's saying is genuine that you know 415 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,679 Speaker 1: it wasn't a racial comment and he didn't mean it 416 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: that way. But I mean they're gonna be guys in 417 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: that locker room where probably asking that question. So yeah, 418 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's like in the same way, 419 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: I think like we had to kind of watch not 420 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: just like whether or not Jacksonville won the game yesterday, 421 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: but like the effort and how much fight there was. 422 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 1: Like I think it's fair to look at the same 423 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: things with the Raiders on Sunday and kind of look 424 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 1: at it and think, how are you going to come 425 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: out of this? So yeah, I mean that's a disappointing 426 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: loss for the Raiders. The Bears aren't a bad team, though, 427 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: I think we've kind of gotten into this space where 428 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 1: people think the Bears are a bad team and they've 429 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: been to the playoffs two times, in the last three 430 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: years there, they're top ten in the NFL and wins 431 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: since twenty and eighteen. So I don't think that's a 432 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 1: bad team. But I do agree that, like I think 433 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: coming off of what the team was coming off of, 434 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: with everything that happened with Bruden on Friday and sort 435 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: of the follow out the last couple of days, it 436 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: was important for them to play well, and they didn't 437 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: play very well. I'm just wondering the NFL is going 438 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 1: to investigate, but how far do you investigate? Because when 439 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: you start to look at email, there's probably a lot 440 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: of things in a lot of emails that if you 441 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: start to go, I mean, how deep do you go 442 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: and what do you want to find out? Because sometimes 443 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: you may not want to find out certain things here. 444 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: And I wonder if they suspend him, if the Raiders 445 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: suspend him, how much you know, how heavy handed is 446 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 1: the NFL here? Yeah? And I don't even know, Like 447 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, um, you know, like how you would 448 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 1: go about looking through text messages? Like can you can 449 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: you look up text messages from ten years? Why don't 450 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: you do text messages? They're they're available from what I'm told, 451 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 1: But email that's something different than and Bruce Allen, who's 452 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 1: on the receiving end of this. You know, he didn't 453 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: push back on you know, John, you shouldn't say that. 454 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: Like it just starts to expand a little bit. It's 455 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: not just John Gruden this well, and it's I mean 456 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: like and honestly like Dan. It goes back to everything 457 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 1: that's happened the last four or five years in the league, 458 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: you know, with with Kaepernick in twenty and sixteen, and 459 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: then you know the comments that Bob McNair made um 460 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: and you know, I think with every one of these, 461 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 1: the question is if he feels comfortable saying it and 462 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 1: setting X, what is he saying and setting why and 463 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: setting Z? You know, and so you know, I think 464 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 1: you're onto it, like where you say, how much do 465 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: they really want to know? Do they want to do? 466 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: Are they wanting to dig through John Gruden's text messages 467 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: from two thousand and eleven and his emails from two 468 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: thousand and eleven and then if they find something there, 469 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: are they going through other interactions? I mean, it could 470 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 1: it can wind up being a never ending thing. I 471 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 1: will say this though, you know, I think there were 472 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: because and there's natural distrust between players in the league, right, 473 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 1: Like that exists, It's always exists. It's just the way 474 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: it is. Like, like, I think that there were a 475 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: fair number number of players who looked at the way 476 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: that the NFL handled everything in two and twenty and 477 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 1: liked it and thought, like, you're trying to do some 478 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: good here, but still sort of wondered how much of 479 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 1: this is just about the moment the country's in, and 480 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: how much of this is just about you know, public 481 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: relations and making sure that they're not creating you know, 482 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: they're not creating a problem for themselves. And so you know, 483 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: I do know that there are at least some players, 484 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 1: even some coaches, even some executives that like looked at 485 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,439 Speaker 1: the league's effort in twenty twenty and said, let's just 486 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: see what happens. Let's see how they handle, you know, 487 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: some of these situations in the future. And I think 488 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: some of those people are definitely looking and saying, all right, like, 489 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 1: let's see what they do with a prominent coach, And 490 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 1: are they willing to come down on a prominent coach 491 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: in a situation like this if this was the NBA, 492 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: what do you think happens if something was unearthed by 493 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: an owner about an owner, Okay, without having covered it. 494 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: My guests would be that there will be My guests 495 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,199 Speaker 1: would be that there would be prominent players, like the 496 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: most prominent players in the league out front and talking 497 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: about it on social media. That'd be my guess, right, Like, 498 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: and I don't know you you've been around that stuff 499 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: probably more than me, been around the NBA more than me. 500 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: But my guess is you probably have guys like Lebron 501 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: James and Kevin Durant, like openly, openly commenting on it, right, 502 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 1: and like, once that happens, now we're talking about something else, 503 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 1: because now it's you know, now it's it's sort of 504 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 1: pitting players against the league, and the players have put 505 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: the league on notice. And I think, you know, for league, 506 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: that's his rabbit eared as the NFL is. If you 507 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: had players coming out and saying something and turning it 508 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 1: into a discussion point in their circles, like now we're 509 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 1: talking about something else, that's like how you know that 510 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: that's how it happened. When that's how the Houston thing became. 511 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: What it became with Bob McNair, you know, is that 512 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: you had guys like Dwayne Brown and DeAndre Hopkins that 513 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: you know, like literally we're like, I don't want to 514 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: play for that guy anymore. And that's how that became 515 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: a bigger thing. So I think, you know, in situations 516 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: like this, the players, and I'm not just talking about 517 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: the Raiders players Dan In situations like this, players have 518 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 1: more power than maybe they even think they do, and 519 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: that like, if it becomes a discussion point and a 520 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 1: public discussion point in their circles, things can wind up happening. 521 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 1: And I think that if this was a more public 522 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: discussion point with you know, say quarterbacks and quarterbacks were 523 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: talking about a public on social media, the league would 524 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: probably be acting, would be would be reacting in a 525 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: little bit more of an aggressive fashion. He's Albert Breer, 526 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: the Monday Morning Quarterbacks senior NFL reporter. The Jags lose 527 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: to the Titans, They've got a game in London coming up, 528 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: and then they have a bye week. Where are we 529 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: headed What happens during that bye week? If anything to 530 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: urban Meyer, I still think that the intention is to 531 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: go forward with him as the head coach. You know, however, 532 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: I know this like part of the reason they hired 533 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: Urban in the first place. Is because I think shod 534 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: Khan to some degree was embarrassed with the results that 535 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,919 Speaker 1: he'd gotten and was embarrassed with the direction of the 536 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 1: franchise and had sort of recognized, I've got too many 537 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: things that have been a certain way in this organization, 538 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 1: and I need to bring in a change agent and 539 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: have someone in here who's going to shake the whole 540 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: place up. And so, you know, I think like kind 541 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 1: of like feeling that his organization was regarded a certain 542 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:24,719 Speaker 1: way in two and twenty is why urban Meyer's there 543 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,679 Speaker 1: in two thousand and twenty one, because he wanted to 544 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: change things now, like now there's another reason now for 545 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: him to feel like, you know, like his franchise is 546 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: being viewed that way. They invested deeply in urban Meyer. 547 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: Dan Like when when Urban went there, the conditions were, 548 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: I need staff, and not just coaching staff, but support staff. 549 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: You know, Shot did all that, I need a practice facility. 550 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: I need first class practice facility. They're building one hundred 551 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: and fifty million dollars practice facility. So they're deeply invested 552 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: in Urban Meyer. That's why it's hard for me to 553 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: see them pulling the plug. But that was a pretty 554 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: strong statement that he put out there, and so I think, 555 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: you know, being on that national stage, even though it's 556 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: I mean it's a London game, but being like on 557 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,479 Speaker 1: that in that standalone game, in that spot, I think 558 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: it's an important spot for Urban Meyer and I think 559 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: that they have to at least play well in that spot, um, 560 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: you know, and for him to sort of I think 561 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: cool things off a little bit there. My guess is 562 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: that you know, I don't I don't think Urban. I 563 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: think Urban's got too much pride to walk away um 564 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: this early. And you remember, like when he walked away 565 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: at Florida and Ohio State was after a whole lot 566 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: of success. And I think that you know, Shad Khan, 567 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: you know, given his brothers, wants to see this through. Um. 568 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: But a lot of this in Urban's right when he 569 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: says this, A lot of this rides and how the 570 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: locker room, you know, decides to handle it and whether 571 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: or not they remain engaged going forward. And I think 572 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: you know, the trip to London historically, if you look 573 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: at it, because it's hard going over there, has sort 574 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: of shown us where coaches stand over the years. Yeah, 575 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: I think you bring up the great point in that 576 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: effort if the team continues to at least try give 577 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: effort on the field. That's one thing you know, that 578 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: they don't quit on him. I'll leave you with this, 579 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: the odds of Trayvon Diggs winning the NFL Defensive Player 580 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: of the Year. You know, I think that. I think 581 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: he's got a chance. I just think that at that 582 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: position is so hard, Like Darrell Rivas never won it, 583 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey hasn't won it, like we're talking about great 584 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: like I mean, Rivas is a Hall of Famer. Ramsey's 585 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: trending that way. And you know what the hard thing 586 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: about it is, Dan is the statistics is that he's 587 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: got six picks now, but what happens when teams start 588 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: throwing away from him? You know? And so I think 589 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: he's got it, like I think like he's got a 590 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: really good shot to be first team All Pro. But 591 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: the question becomes, if he has say just one or 592 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: two picks over his last ten games, which could mean 593 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: he's playing fantastic, no one's throwing at him like then 594 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: I think too many of the voters are going to 595 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: look at that and say, well, wait a second, Like, 596 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: can we can we give the award to somebody who 597 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 1: wasn't you know, wasn't making plays in the ball in 598 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: November and December, even though that can be a symbol 599 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: of how well a corner is playing. But he was 600 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: playing for the Cowboys, that's true. Yeah, you got to 601 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: factor that in. They didn't have anybody. Revis never won it, 602 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: I know, I mean that's crazy thing about that. Darrell 603 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: Rebus never won it. Like it's just I think it's 604 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: hard for guys at that position to do it, you know, 605 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: But Stephan Gilmore want it, that's true. Yeah, that's true. 606 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: So he's got a shot. He's got a shot. Yeah, 607 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 1: he's got a shot. I just I would just say, 608 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: like if you look at Stephon Gilmore, the other thing 609 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: that Gilmore had going for him, that was a really 610 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: good secondary that he was a part of a New England, right, 611 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: And so it was harder to throw away from Stephan 612 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: Gilmore in New England than maybe it was to throw 613 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,959 Speaker 1: away from Durrell Revis in New York or Champ Bailey, 614 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: you know, who was a great player for a lot 615 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: of years. Hard to throw away from Champ Bailey for 616 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: a lot of years in Denver, or throw away easier, 617 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: easier to throw away Yeah, Like I think with Treyvon Diggs, 618 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a little easier for teams to kind 619 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: of work around throwing at him versus what it was 620 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: for say Steph Gilmore in two thousand and nine. You're 621 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: buzz kill man, buzz kill buzz kill breer. That's what 622 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: they're calling you want, So you're rooting for Treyvon Man. No, 623 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: I just look for impact players. That defense was one 624 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: of the worst that we've seen in NFL history. Michael Parsons, 625 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: who's been a godsend for them. But you have somebody 626 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: who's changing games out of nowhere and a second round pick. Good. 627 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: He's spectacular too, that's the one thing that will help them. Yeah, 628 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: like spectacular from like a highlight player. So I'm with 629 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: you on that. Like, I hope he keeps making plays 630 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: like this because it's fun to watch. I just I 631 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 1: don't know, like, like I think would often happen. I'm 632 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: just telling you, I think what often happens with corners is, 633 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: you know, teams start throwing away from them. Good to 634 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: talk to you, Albert, Sorry to kill the buys. That's sorry, 635 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: that's sorry, Musy.

Refined your prime with M drive. 673 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: Trying to think if Trayvon digs of the Cowboys, the 674 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 1: defensive back gets to a certain number, I mean, Stefan 675 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 1: Gilmore won the Defensive Player of the Year last year, 676 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: So it's not out of the realm of possibilities any 677 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: place for the Cowboys. Your games are always on national TV. 678 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess if he gets to ten, if he 679 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: gets to double digits, then he'd have a pretty good chance. Now, 680 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,919 Speaker 1: you've had players get to ten before. I think as 681 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: Avian Howard of the Dolphins maybe got to ten. But 682 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 1: you have to go back to Everson Walls said the 683 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 1: Cowboys had eleven picks back in the early eighties. But 684 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,840 Speaker 1: he wasn't defensive player of the year. You know, the 685 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: secondary is not great where you're going to go, Oh, 686 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: we have to throw in his direction. But I'm just 687 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 1: wondering because you know, he's been impactful. It's one thing 688 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 1: to have interceptions. It's another thing that what do those 689 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: interceptions mean? And pick sixes and just that changes the 690 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: you know, the complexion of a game. But if you 691 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 1: have I mean, how many shutdown corners are there in football? 692 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,919 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey's wonderful. But Trayvon Diggs has gotten all this publicity. 693 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: He's his second round pick. He just turned twenty three 694 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 1: and he plays for the Cowboys. Those are things that 695 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: I have to factor in. And you know, the voters 696 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: not voting for Drell Reeves, I mean, that's on them. 697 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: But you know, I just think sort of looking at this, 698 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 1: and we tend to look at Aaron Donald, or we 699 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 1: look at the edge rusher is Miles Garrett. Those kind 700 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: of players bossa that they you know, they get a 701 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: lot of attention. G J. Watt, It's been rare when 702 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: you've had that shutdown corner and how valuable that is 703 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 1: in today's passing league. Yeah, mcleve Well, Reeves didn't have 704 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: great hands, as I recall, like he dominated a game 705 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: just because he took out that one receiver. But I 706 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 1: think digs his hands make him a little different, right, 707 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: he looks like a receiver when he's out there. I 708 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: didn't know Reeves had bad hands, I think. So I'll 709 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 1: look at his interception. I'm like, like, he wasn't. I 710 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe I'm making that up, but I don't 711 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 1: think he was like great at catching the ball. Just 712 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 1: think he was just really really good at shutting down. 713 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 1: Randy Moss, all right, did we settle on a poll question? 714 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: I did I put up? If you had a better 715 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 1: week's pay. Who's coming out of the AFC. The Bills 716 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 1: are the field fifty five percent field. That's pretty close. Yeah, 717 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 1: I'm surprised. I like Buffalo for a variety of reasons, 718 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 1: but being in that division certainly helps, and then having 719 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 1: home field advantage is going to help. I mean, that's 720 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: what everybody's striving for, is you know, can you have 721 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 1: how many home playoff games? Are you going? Again? That's 722 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: why when the Packers win a game against Cincinnati, like, 723 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean as much now, but it's going to 724 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 1: mean a whole lot at the end of the year 725 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,320 Speaker 1: when you go, oh, they got x number of wins. 726 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,280 Speaker 1: Now they're going to host a playoff game or two. 727 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: It's like Tampa, you just want to keep building up 728 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:21,399 Speaker 1: getting those victories and so you're hosting a playoff game 729 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 1: or two. Yeah, mclub. What would you tell Chiefs fans 730 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:29,399 Speaker 1: about it? What's the panic level? Now? Well, it's been 731 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: a very tough schedule. It was just a point out. Yeah, 732 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: but you're holding the Chiefs to under twenty points. That 733 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 1: to me was the most interesting stat not that Buffalo 734 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: put up thirty eight points, but you're holding them under 735 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: twenty one points. For the first time since they were 736 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: held to thirteen points in Week five or twenty nineteen. 737 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: That to me was a little more alarming. Now, did 738 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: you know you had the ball bounced Buffalo's way a 739 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 1: couple of times. You had to pick six in there 740 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 1: as well. But you're seeing the defense basically played deep 741 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: and Tyreek Hill you know, I don't know how many 742 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 1: catches he had, but I don't think he had one 743 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: for more than fifteen yards. It's keeping everything in front 744 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: of you, and I think that is They're gonna have 745 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: to be a little bit more methodical with their offense. 746 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:25,880 Speaker 1: You know, you start to look at Clyde Edwards Hilaire 747 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: and that you didn't take a defensive player, took an 748 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: offensive player. And at the time we thought, oh boy, 749 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 1: they got to steal at the end of the first round. 750 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: You got to have a couple impact defensive players. I 751 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 1: don't care how good your team is, got to have 752 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,240 Speaker 1: a couple of those guys. And you saw this with Dallas, 753 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,280 Speaker 1: and that might be the difference for Dallas. Like Dallas 754 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: is a legitimate NFC team. Yeah, Parsons and Digs and 755 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: these guys each play each week, and you know they're 756 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 1: they're impactful there. Kans City doesn't have that right now. 757 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 1: And you've got to be able to score teams. And 758 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: when you're scoring twenty one points against Buffalo, really you're 759 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 1: scoring twenty one against anybody, Chances are you're not going 760 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: to win those games. Not. In today's NFL all right, 761 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 1: phone calls best and Worst to the weekend, Alan Atlanta 762 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 1: leads us off high al Good morning, Dan, Good morning, 763 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 1: all best of the weekend.
