Good morning. We are 0:00:13.360 --> 0:00:18.279 on the eve of the eve of the eve of 0:00:18.400 --> 0:00:25.680 super Bowl, and big update in my world. I find 0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:29.600 out from your baby's sister. Yes, there's not a baby anymore. 0:00:29.640 --> 0:00:34.240 She's twelve. Yesterday she's like, so, when do you think 0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:37.960 we're getting to Nana's. And I'm like, what do you mean? 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:41.400 She was like, Oh, I thought every I thought we 0:00:41.600 --> 0:00:49.440 everybody knew we're watching the super Bowl at Nana's. 0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:53.559 I take it you will, well no, I I oh, 0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:54.360 I'm not. 0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:58.680 I don't know, man, I don't know, and I do know. 0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:03.040 And this is, you know, this air little family laundry here. 0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:06.680 I think the assumption was, well, the Chiefs aren't playing, 0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:09.920 so it will be a little more relaxed, which may 0:01:10.000 --> 0:01:13.160 or may not be true. And I obviously love my 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:18.360 mom and love my wonderful sister and her family and 0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:24.640 her kids. But watching the Super Bowl in the midst 0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:30.800 of young children running around and that and and that 0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:40.119 atmosphere does not seem like peak viewing experience. And so 0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:43.440 I don't know. I said to your mom. I was like, 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:45.640 what what's going on with you know? 0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:46.840 My mom? 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.440 And Super Bowl? She's like and your Mom's like, that's 0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:51.680 your mom talk to you? You talked to I said, 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:52.800 it was fine, you talked to her. 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:53.920 So I. 0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:58.960 Don't know what's going on. I don't know, but I 0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:04.880 do know that I there's all I it's just not 0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:09.640 it's a little little wrench in the gears that I 0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:12.800 didn't necessarily expect as we get ready for what should 0:02:12.880 --> 0:02:15.440 be an awesome game. And we're gonna get to that 0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:18.640 in a bit. Also, NBA trade deadline stuff, all of 0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:22.919 that coming up. But first straight to the voicemail brought 0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:26.280 to you by our friends at boost Mobile. The our 0:02:26.440 --> 0:02:32.680 long national nightmare is over. Guys. The Kawhi Leonards snub that, 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:38.480 oh my god, had everyone pearl clutching, had people that 0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:45.079 dastardly Lebron James who stole Kawhi Leonard's All Star spot. 0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:47.359 As it turns out, Kawi Leonard's gonna be an All Star. 0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:49.880 We all knew he was always gonna be an All Star. 0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:53.239 It was all nonsense. The NFC wins the Pro Bowl, 0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:55.600 I guess should or throws a couple of touchdowns I 0:02:55.639 --> 0:03:02.040 didn't watch, and Jackson Hayes being suspended for a game 0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:10.000 for a real shove of the Wizard's mascot is really unbelievable, 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:15.560 like he had no reason to do it. I don't 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:19.800 understand it. The video is stunning. I don't get it. 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:26.240 It seems like a cheap shot. The Robin Lopez famously 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.440 used to fight mascots in every arena, but it was 0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:34.440 all playful and like a mutual right this Wizard's mascots 0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:37.800 is running down and Jackson Hayes just like the late 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:44.040 Sean Taylor to an unsuspecting wide receiver coming over the middle, 0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:49.080 just body Jacks cool. I didn't get that one at all. Reminder, 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:53.160 everybody like rate subscribe review to the show. Before we 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:57.640 get to the NBA trade deadline, it we are at 0:03:57.640 --> 0:03:59.280 the eve of the eve of the eve of the 0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:03.800 super Bowl. Reminder, our prop show, our gambling show for 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:07.480 the super Bowl, comes out on these channels tomorrow. But 0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.560 let's get to the actual game right now. 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:12.800 So the super Bowl is a few days ago, a 0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.480 few days away, and we'll eventually get to your picks. 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:17.719 But first off, we've got some questions for you, one 0:04:17.800 --> 0:04:20.080 at a time. And the first one is is what 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:22.400 is the path to victory for each of these teams? 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:29.760 Okay for Seattle, for both teams, I think it's actually 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:35.240 pretty straightforward. And this isn't the only path obviously, but 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:41.720 the simplest path for Seattle is that they are able 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:49.080 to with their outstanding defensive line, hurry Drake may a 0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:54.559 bit get the Patriots into some third and long must 0:04:54.680 --> 0:05:00.320 pass situations where the paths were outstanding the the first 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.159 two months of the year and have been a little 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:10.000 shakier since then. Let tank Lawrence Tee off on Will Campbell, 0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:14.240 not let the Patriots stay ahead of the sticks with 0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:19.239 Romandre Stevenson, because as the Seahawks have been an elite 0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:25.400 run defense this year, and trust their great secondary and 0:05:25.560 --> 0:05:31.480 great scheme with Mike McDonald to fool a young, an 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:35.360 excellent but a young quarterback in Drake, may put him, 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:38.840 make him look the way he's looked a lot of 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:47.120 this postseason so far, and be able to play somewhat 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:56.960 on their script, hold the Patriots offense down and really 0:05:57.080 --> 0:06:01.479 see put the Pats in the by kind of man 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:09.160 we need to be throwing and we need to not 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:14.120 We need to have as many receivers and pass catchers 0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:17.839 out in the route as possible, which means we can't 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:22.279 help our offensive line, we can't max protect, we can't 0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:26.479 keep people into Chip and Seattle Tea's off on Drake May. 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:30.560 Who And I just want to because this has become 0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:34.000 quite the argument on the TV show and I don't 0:06:34.880 --> 0:06:40.120 understand why, and I just want to emphasize the following 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:51.640 facts related to Drake May's struggles this postseason. In the 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:58.640 last thirty years, the second biggest drop off from regular 0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:03.400 season passer rating to postseason passer rating in the last 0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:12.200 thirty years is Drake May these playoffs. In NFL history, 0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:18.000 the biggest drop off from regular season completion percentage to 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:27.600 postseason completion percentage is Drake May these playoffs. Drake May 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:33.640 in seventeen regular season games turned the ball over eleven 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:40.280 times total. In three playoff games has turned the ball 0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:46.720 over five times total. Drake May in seventeen regular season 0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:52.440 games had eight fumbles, not lost, just total fumbles. Drake 0:07:52.480 --> 0:08:00.960 May in three playoff games has six fumbles. Now those 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:05.480 regular season of postseason drop offs, some of that is 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:11.520 a testament to how exceptional he was in the regular season. 0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:17.920 There is no doubt about that. But a guy who 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:23.560 led the league in passer rating falling to what would 0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:29.840 an eighty five rating is stunning. A guy who led 0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:31.680 the league and he might have been second and pass rating, 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:35.360 a guy who led the league in completion percentage falling 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:41.319 to a completion percentage demons that is lower than Shador 0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:47.920 Sanders this season is stunning. It's fifty five percent. They've 0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:51.680 played great defenses, he has made some excellent plays, and 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:53.959 he's been very good with his legs when he hasn't 0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:58.960 fumbled and hasn't been sacked. But when I get to 0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:03.760 the Patriots say of it, the biggest key is gonna 0:09:03.760 --> 0:09:06.920 be Drake May looking like Drake May, because he hasn't 0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:10.760 yet this postseason. And the question for Seattle is can 0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:15.880 they continue that trend? Can they keep Drake May struggling? 0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:20.920 Because folks are correct that the Patriots have played a 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:25.760 murderer's row of defenses, But the end of that sentence 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:30.040 is and their quarterback has looked like it has looked 0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:33.719 like he has played a murderer's row of defenses. And 0:09:33.840 --> 0:09:38.120 Seattle is either the best or the second best defense 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.160 they will have faced all year. It's them or Houston, 0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:46.640 depending on who you prefer, and so it is not 0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:53.840 unfair or nitpicking to say up to this point in 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:58.240 the playoffs, the Patriots have been winning in spite of 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:04.240 quarterback play, which is in some ways a reason to 0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:08.560 be very optimistic about their chances in this game because 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:15.199 they've gotten to the super Bowl without Drake playing well. 0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:20.599 But I think Seattle can present some really big troubles. 0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:26.199 Seattle since Mike McDonald got there is fifteen and two 0:10:26.400 --> 0:10:33.400 away from home, which is unreal. Seattle with Mike McDonald 0:10:34.040 --> 0:10:40.800 facing young quarterbacks is nine and one in the last 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:46.560 four years. Quarterbacks the first time they face Mike McDonald's 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:52.480 defense have struggled massively. So those are all things that 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:58.760 I think Seattle is positioned well for. And I think 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:05.800 that that Seattle defense. The only guy all year long 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:11.480 demands who has been able to, oh, we're in a 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:16.160 must pass situation, watch me rip it is Stafford. He's 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:21.040 the only one. And now they Baker had an awesome 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:23.800 game against him too, but they weren't down multiple scores 0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:27.760 where like we must pass situation. It's not to say 0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:33.880 Drake may can't do it, but they have been the 0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:38.200 league's best defense by most metrics throughout the year. So 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:42.760 the Seahawks path is simple, that d line be what 0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:45.040 it's been all year, and that secondary be what it's 0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:48.880 been all year, and not put the game on Sam 0:11:48.960 --> 0:11:55.760 Darnold's shoulders. Okay, the Patriots path is simple as well. 0:11:57.120 --> 0:12:05.600 Drake May. Don't be afraid to run the ball. The 0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:11.200 one place Seattle's defense struggles is quarterback scrambles. Drake May 0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:15.000 has been excellent at it. Don't be afraid to tuck 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:19.960 it and run, stay ahead of the chains. Make it 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:29.560 so Seattle can't sell out against the pass and put 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:36.320 Sam Darnold in a spot where the pressure ratchets up 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:43.120 even further. Because the Patriots as good as Seattle, as 0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:46.679 well as Seattle has coached, the Patriots will not be 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:50.800 out coached in this game. As buttoned up as Seattle is, 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:55.560 verbel and is going to get every game management decision right. 0:12:56.200 --> 0:13:01.880 And Josh McDaniels will have his guys as prepared as 0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:12.400 can be. And I am looking closely at Nick emon Worri. 0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:17.160 They're awesome rookie safety who Mike McDonald that was his 0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:20.160 one of his you know, his second first round pick 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:25.760 with the Seahawks in who they took to play kind 0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:29.720 of that Kyle Hamilton role that he played with Baltimore. 0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:35.000 He hurt his ankle in practice yesterday and the video 0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:39.280 of him walking into the team hotel is. What's good 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:42.360 is it's no crutches, no boot, no nothing like that. 0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:48.959 What's bad is, uh, he's limping badly and he's a 0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:55.920 key piece. And we know Drake May has excellence in him, 0:13:56.400 --> 0:14:00.959 we just and we also know that, unlike other quarterbacks, 0:14:01.679 --> 0:14:06.120 Drake May can be having a miserable game and still 0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:09.720 make awesome plays. That Houston game he fumbled four times, 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:14.000 and in the midst of that through some of his 0:14:14.080 --> 0:14:21.320 best passes of the season. So I don't think the 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:27.200 Patriots can come from behind in this game. Like I'm 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:32.120 not talking about seven nothing, but I think that they 0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:34.880 can't be behind the sticks and they can't be behind 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:41.880 the scoreboard. But if it's close late, I think it 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:47.960 favors New England. But I also think Seattle's the team 0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:50.760 more likely. If you're like one of these two teams 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:52.760 is gonna have a ten point lead going into the 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:56.360 fourth quarter, my money in that situation would be on Seattle. 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.720 What are your other questions on this Who. 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:02.520 Do you believe has the most to lose and the 0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:03.160 most to gain. 0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:11.920 I don't really look at this as a spot where 0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:16.280 anybody has a ton to lose, Like Seattle's the favorite, 0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:22.360 but there's nobody would look at this like it's a 0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:23.280 go ahead. 0:15:23.360 --> 0:15:25.480 You don't think it's seen in Seattle having more to lose, 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:28.120 just how everybody probably expects them to win the game. 0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:31.880 Well, so listen, they are the favorite, and it does 0:15:31.920 --> 0:15:35.280 seem like a disc for only being a four and 0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:39.200 a half point favorite. They have a disproportionate amount of 0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:43.760 people picking them right. But I don't think if they lose, 0:15:43.840 --> 0:15:46.920 people will be like they choked. So like I But 0:15:47.080 --> 0:15:54.200 as far as most to gain, it is and this 0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:57.880 is cliche, I guess, but it's obvious it's the coaches 0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:03.960 and the quarterbacks. Like Vrabel winning a Super Bowl. He 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:07.000 got to an AFC Championship game with Ryan Tannehill and 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:09.440 the Titans, he got the number one seed a different 0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:12.480 year with Ryan Tannehill and the Titans, and his first 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:18.080 year with the Patriots to come in and take over 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:21.480 a four win team and win the Super Bowl. Some 0:16:21.560 --> 0:16:24.560 people would say he's just the best coach in the league, 0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:28.720 and he's already considered one of the best, so for 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:36.200 Vrabel it would be a pretty remarkable short coaching resume. 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:41.960 McDonald second year as a head coach, his final year 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:45.120 as coordinator in Baltimore, they win the defensive Triple Crown. 0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:48.760 They're the one seed. Even in the playoff game they lost, 0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:53.680 they only allowed seventeen points to the Chiefs. Takes over Seattle, 0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:57.520 instantly transforms the defense. They win ten games last year 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:00.920 and missed the playoffs despite that, and this your number 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:04.080 one seed with a brutal schedule, and then win the 0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:08.560 Super Bowl. I don't even know what the you know, 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:14.200 young coach comp is there. And then for the quarterbacks, 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:19.919 if the Patriots win Demons and Drake May plays well, 0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:26.000 then absolutely no one will care that he has struggled 0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:30.720 in the three playoff games beforehand, and you will have 0:17:30.840 --> 0:17:38.080 people understandably arguing he's the best quarterback in the league. 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:42.640 Like that's if in year two you either and we're 0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:45.920 gonna find out tonight if he wins MVP or comes 0:17:45.960 --> 0:17:49.080 in second. But if in year two you're a top 0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:52.520 two MVP finisher and then you win the Super Bowl 0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:55.360 and you play well in the Super Bowl, folks are 0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:58.040 just gonna argue, you're the best quarterback in the league, 0:17:58.040 --> 0:18:05.439 and that's fair like the I, except he didn't win it. 0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:10.440 He lost in the Super Bowl. He won MVP and 0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:15.600 uh lost in the Super Bowl in year two and 0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:17.480 then never got back to a super Bowl. 0:18:18.160 --> 0:18:18.520 Uh. 0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:24.119 And and for Darnald, he's just it's the greatest quarterback 0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:27.879 reclamation story in league history. It might already be that, 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:30.360 but if he wins. 0:18:30.080 --> 0:18:33.119 Then, especially getting shipped off to another team and like 0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:35.200 you know, back to back and then getting all those wins, 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:36.160 winning a Super Bowl. 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:43.440 Yeah, I mean, this is Jets, this is his fifteen 0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:49.040 am I leaving one out Jets, Panthers, Niners, Vikings, Seahawks 0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:55.600 and so. But to your point, he goes to Minnesota 0:18:55.640 --> 0:18:59.440 a year ago is not you know, he's supposed to 0:18:59.480 --> 0:19:02.560 be compete with JJ McCarthy to be the starter. McCarthy 0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:05.600 gets hurt. They win fourteen games, they're playing for the 0:19:05.640 --> 0:19:08.640 one seed the final week of the year. He plays poorly, 0:19:08.760 --> 0:19:12.040 plays poorly in the playoff game. They don't really believe 0:19:12.040 --> 0:19:15.960 in him. Seattle then signs him. I call it a 0:19:16.040 --> 0:19:19.520 huge mistake. I say they got worse going from Gino 0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:27.280 to McDonald. Yeah, and they win fourteen games, they are 0:19:27.320 --> 0:19:32.160 the one seed win the Super Bowl. And so those 0:19:32.160 --> 0:19:34.800 are the guys who have the most on the line. 0:19:34.880 --> 0:19:38.480 What else, what is the most important matchup in this game? 0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:44.000 Will Campbell against DeMarcus Lawrence or whomever's lined up against him. 0:19:44.280 --> 0:19:48.160 Patriots rookie left tackle Will Campbell, who has struggled mightily 0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:55.399 this postseason, has given up a pressure rate of I 0:19:55.440 --> 0:19:58.840 think above fifteen percent in every game he's played, gave 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:01.080 up a bunch of sacks first two games, didn't give 0:20:01.160 --> 0:20:04.520 up a sack in the conference championship game, but PFF 0:20:04.600 --> 0:20:07.720 still had engraded as a poor performance. That's where the 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:12.240 game can be lost is Will Campbell. That is with 0:20:12.680 --> 0:20:17.200 and DeMarcus Lawrence. That was a hell of a signing 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:25.080 by the Seahawks, who I think a lot of us thought, listen, 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:29.399 this guy was a really good player. But he's a 0:20:29.440 --> 0:20:32.600 thirty three year old edge rusher coming off an injury 0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:38.959 riddled final year with Dallas and he comes to Seattle 0:20:40.440 --> 0:20:46.920 and makes the Pro Bowl. Is not an All Pro, 0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:53.200 but probably the you know, one of the most impactful 0:20:53.240 --> 0:20:57.919 guys on their d line and the veteran leader there. 0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:04.919 And I just wonder if he and Leonard Williams and 0:21:05.119 --> 0:21:08.920 the rest of that D line can put Drake May 0:21:08.960 --> 0:21:12.639 in hell throughout this game, which kind of leads to 0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:13.800 my actual prediction. 0:21:13.920 --> 0:21:16.800 So go ahead, and what is your final prediction on 0:21:16.880 --> 0:21:17.280 the game? 0:21:21.720 --> 0:21:26.520 Twenty seven to seventeen Seattle is how I see this 0:21:26.640 --> 0:21:37.760 shaking out. I think that both quarterbacks have one turnover, 0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:42.119 at least one turnover. But I think Drake, who is 0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:47.639 flirting with the Joe Burrow record of nineteen sacks taken 0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:50.840 in a postseason, he's at fifteen. He's taken five in 0:21:50.880 --> 0:21:57.640 every game that May is under constant duress that Stefan 0:21:57.760 --> 0:22:02.240 Diggs is not able to get off, that they find 0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:05.720 enough ways to get Jackson Smith and Jig but lined 0:22:05.800 --> 0:22:08.119 up in different spots to where he can get going. 0:22:09.000 --> 0:22:17.520 And there is a major Seattle defensive play, whether to 0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:23.120 stripsack or a tipped pass pick, a major Seattle defensive 0:22:23.160 --> 0:22:26.960 play that is caused by pressure on the quarterback that 0:22:27.160 --> 0:22:31.040 gets this game going in the in a bad direction 0:22:31.160 --> 0:22:35.760 for Seattle. So I will swallow the four and a 0:22:35.800 --> 0:22:41.399 half points and Seattle twenty seven New England seventeen is 0:22:41.440 --> 0:22:46.159 my official pick, all right, So that. 0:22:46.119 --> 0:22:49.119 Is gonna be weird for you without the Chiefs not 0:22:49.240 --> 0:22:52.120 peening in the Super Bowl this year. It is. 0:22:53.359 --> 0:22:58.399 I mean, so they've played in five of the last six. 0:23:00.200 --> 0:23:08.760 The one they didn't play in was Rams Bengals, and 0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:17.280 my only I have such vivid memories from the and 0:23:17.320 --> 0:23:22.119 I want to find it. I have such vivid memories 0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:26.199 from all of the Chief Super Bowls and Rams Bengals 0:23:26.480 --> 0:23:32.320 is a bit of a blur, and I'm trying except 0:23:32.359 --> 0:23:39.600 for let me see if I can find it. Oh, sorry, 0:23:39.640 --> 0:23:44.919 there it is, okay, lose. No, they lost in overtime 0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:52.360 of the AFC Championship game. Uh. And I had the 0:23:52.359 --> 0:24:02.280 only thing I really remember vividly about that game, having 0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:12.119 two bets related to Bengal sacks or Ram sacks on 0:24:12.440 --> 0:24:17.439 Joe Burrow. One was a big plus money bet on 0:24:18.480 --> 0:24:25.080 Aaron Donald over a sack and a half, and at 0:24:25.160 --> 0:24:33.719 halftime he had zero, and then the second drive of 0:24:35.119 --> 0:24:40.679 the second half he got one. I think it was 0:24:41.520 --> 0:24:44.439 this part. I might I say I remember it vividly, 0:24:44.480 --> 0:24:46.280 but I might have it wrong, so maybe I don't 0:24:46.280 --> 0:24:49.680 remember it vividly. One of those sacks where the quarterback 0:24:51.440 --> 0:24:54.520 like goes down right at the line of scrimmage. But 0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:58.720 they call it right behind, so he got a sack 0:24:58.840 --> 0:25:03.320 for it, and and the four plays later got another 0:25:03.400 --> 0:25:07.439 one and hit that, you know it within five minutes 0:25:07.440 --> 0:25:11.560 after it looking like we were in trouble, and I 0:25:11.800 --> 0:25:15.240 had I had another. Well, he ced the game on 0:25:15.320 --> 0:25:18.840 a pressure, but that wasn't a sack. I had another. 0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:25.119 I basically bet I laddered the sacks in that game, 0:25:25.520 --> 0:25:29.840 which was rams to have at least three and a half, 0:25:29.880 --> 0:25:31.880 four and a half, five and a half and six 0:25:31.920 --> 0:25:38.000 and a half sacks, and they they got von Miller. 0:25:38.440 --> 0:25:42.840 I think was that the last one. Von Miller got 0:25:43.359 --> 0:25:49.480 sack number seven on a play where there was a penalty, 0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:53.239 but it was a penalty on the Bengals, so the 0:25:53.320 --> 0:25:58.399 sacks stood and I hit all those bets, but I 0:25:58.480 --> 0:26:01.320 don't really I know that late the game obviously there 0:26:01.400 --> 0:26:04.879 was a really ticky tac defensive holding penalty. You know, 0:26:05.119 --> 0:26:10.840 I remember the game, but it is it's insane. The 0:26:10.960 --> 0:26:13.320 Chiefs have played in five of the last six. But 0:26:13.400 --> 0:26:19.600 it also will make the viewing experience very, very different. 0:26:19.720 --> 0:26:23.159 And again we'll see if you know what prop bets 0:26:23.200 --> 0:26:29.240 we have on our gambling show tomorrow. But I would 0:26:29.320 --> 0:26:31.520 like to get to some of the NBA trade deadline 0:26:31.560 --> 0:26:35.239 stuff here in a moment.

What if Rogers goes on 0:29:35.800 --> 0:29:39.000 a run? What if the Eagles repeat? Which second year 0:29:39.080 --> 0:29:42.240 quarterback goes on a run? Which NFC West team will 0:29:42.320 --> 0:29:45.320 you think looked like they did in the regular season? 0:29:45.840 --> 0:29:47.440 How do you think you did so far with them? 0:29:47.560 --> 0:29:53.440 Yeah? So listen, I mean the I mean, I think 0:29:55.120 --> 0:30:00.920 I think these were the storylines going in and if 0:30:00.920 --> 0:30:04.080 we address them all one by one, like is this 0:30:04.200 --> 0:30:10.840 Josh Allen's year breakthrough? That? That was the question because 0:30:11.200 --> 0:30:15.640 since they didn't, they fired the coach. I mean, was 0:30:15.640 --> 0:30:19.440 was I putting too much emphasis on this postseason for them? No? 0:30:20.000 --> 0:30:25.920 I wasn't, and we haven't on this show. Talked about 0:30:25.960 --> 0:30:29.320 the Josh Allen interview right he was on the TV 0:30:29.400 --> 0:30:30.840 show Tuesday after our. 0:30:30.720 --> 0:30:34.760 Pod was broken up about McDermott leaven the. 0:30:36.160 --> 0:30:39.400 No what I'm saying, I'm no the interview he did 0:30:39.440 --> 0:30:45.720 on First Things First and so the So I just 0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:50.400 want to say something about our spot there because I 0:30:50.440 --> 0:30:52.160
