Demonse will be joining as shortly. He for 17 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: his first time since moving to Los Angeles, is dealing 18 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 2: with the devastation of Los Angeles traffic, but we'll give 19 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 2: him a pass. We'll see him shortly. Here is what 20 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 2: missed the cut for today's show. Trevor Lawrence Day to 21 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 2: day with a knee injury. They play on Thursday night. 22 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 2: That is a story to monitor for Thursday. Justin Field's 23 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 2: doubtful with a thumb injury. They're gonna be playing a 24 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 2: guy from Shepherd College. Potentially that's a disaster for a 25 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: team that's already had a bunch and Kansiony defeats Denver 26 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 2: for Chexnoes yet the one thousandth straight time. But where 27 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 2: we're going to start today is with Monday Night Football. 28 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: The producers tell me that I said the Cowboys were 29 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 2: going to roll the Chargers. They obviously did not roll 30 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 2: the Chargers. They did, however, beat the Chargers. They also 31 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: said that I had mentioned that looked sensational and I 32 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 2: took a shot at Herbert. The question I'm being asked 33 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 2: is have people been too harsh on Dak and not 34 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: harsh enough on Herbert. So let's start with the Herbert 35 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 2: part and then we will circle around to Dak And 36 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 2: also what frustrated me about last night's Cowboys game. So 37 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert came into the NFL top ten pick pressed 38 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: into service in the game where the Chargers team doctor 39 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 2: stabbed Tyrod Taylor trying to ge him a painkilling injection 40 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 2: week two of his rookie season against my beloved Chiefs 41 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 2: in a game, the defending champion Chiefs, no Less, in 42 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: a game he did not think he was gonna have 43 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 2: to play and threw for three hundred yards, one touchdown, 44 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 2: one pick, a ninety four passer rating, and they lost. 45 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 2: But he was down right terrifying, And in that moment, 46 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: I said, Oh, Jesus, this guy that the Chargers, a 47 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: divisional opponent, got a great one and he's going to 48 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 2: be a pain in the ass for years to come. 49 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: And that is still kind of true. But where I'm 50 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 2: at with Herbert is that it is not that he 51 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 2: is the problem with the Chargers. As I said to 52 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: Demanse a few weeks ago when we discussed him, It's 53 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: not that he's the problem. It's that he is paid 54 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: to be the solution, and you have some concern on that. 55 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 2: It is. Is Justin Herbert a good quarterback, no question. 56 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 2: Is Justin Herbert a very good quarterback? I think so. 57 00:03:53,960 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 2: But has Justin Herbert improved in any significant fashion since 58 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 2: his rookie year. No. Justin Herbert's rookie year three to 59 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 2: one touchdown interception ratio, A ninety eight passer rating yards 60 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 2: per attempt of seven point six. So again three to 61 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 2: one touchdown interception ratio, ninety eight passer rating yards per 62 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: attempt seven point six. Justin Herbert for his career a 63 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 2: three to one touchdown interception ratio a ninety seven passer 64 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 2: rating seven point two yards per attempt seven point I'm 65 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: sorry he was seven point three as a rookie seven 66 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 2: point two. Now, it's not like those are really good numbers, 67 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 2: and they're the numbers of a really good quarterback. But 68 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: when you put up those numbers as a rookie, we 69 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 2: expect you to consistently improve. That just hasn't happened. And Edwarder, 70 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 2: I didn't know this stat So credit to Heaedwarder for 71 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 2: tweeting it out an hour or so ago. Let me 72 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: the let me find it real quick. I just had it. 73 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: Stefan Gilmour's clinching I in Tino. Justin Herbert through his 74 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 2: thirteenth career interception in the fourth quarter of a one 75 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 2: score game tonight. That's five more so he has thirteen. 76 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: No other quarterback has more than eight since he came 77 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 2: into the league. Now, Herbert plays a lot of one 78 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 2: score games, there's been more opportunities for that. I understand that. 79 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: But there are a lot of different thresholds of do 80 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: I have a good quarterback? Do I have a very 81 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 2: good quarterback? Do I have a great quarterback? Do I 82 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: maybe have the best quarterback? And one of them is 83 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 2: the indefinable situation Herbert was in last night, and it's 84 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 2: the feeling that you have if you're rooting four or 85 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: against that team, which is got the ball two twenty 86 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 2: left down three own twenty five yard line. I had 87 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 2: a bet on the Cowboys. I was rooting for the Cowboys. 88 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 2: I wasn't worried. That's a problem. And no Charger fan 89 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 2: out there can argue. When he got the ball there 90 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 2: you were like, well, definitely getting three, might get seven. 91 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 2: You were actually watching saying, USh, this probably isn't gonna 92 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 2: end great. And that doesn't mean he's bad. He obviously 93 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 2: is not bad. But he came into the league and 94 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 2: A or a B plus and right now he's an 95 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 2: AUS or a B plus. That's a problem now to 96 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 2: the Cowboys. The good Dak Prescott was sensational last night, 97 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: adverse circumstances, his coach seemingly working against him. Michael Gallup. Now, 98 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 2: where Dak I thought made a mistake was targeting Gallup 99 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 2: so often. But Gallup couldn't catch anything and made plays 100 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 2: with his legs, which he must do more of. That's 101 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 2: an important part of his game. He's gotta do more 102 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 2: of it. Made plays out of structure, made high level throws, 103 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: completed some big time third, medium's, third and longs, and 104 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 2: was excellent last night the Cowboys, and I tried to 105 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: caution everyone of just anointing the Niners in the Eagles 106 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 2: like oh Man, Cowboys lucky if they make the playoffs. 107 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 2: Now game back, game back of both of those teams. Now, 108 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 2: the Niners obviously have the tiebreaker with Dallas, but Dallas 109 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 2: gets Philly twice, and while Philly has the toughest eight 110 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 2: game stretch in the league coming up, Dallas has a 111 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 2: buye then their home for the Rams, then one of 112 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 2: those Eagles games, then the Giants, the Panthers, the Commanders 113 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: before their schedule gets far tougher with Seahawks, Eagles, Bills, Dolphins, Lions, 114 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 2: and then finish the year against the Commanders. So do 115 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 2: not be surprised in the least if we leave Thanksgiving 116 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 2: Day with the Cowboys in first place in the NFC East. 117 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 2: Don't be surprised by that. In fact, that's what I 118 00:08:54,840 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 2: think is gonna happen. And so there is there that 119 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: is the good for the Cowboys. Here is the not 120 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: good for the Cowboys. What we saw from Mike McCarthy 121 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 2: at halftime of the game, or right before halftime of 122 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 2: the game is just absolutely unforgivable. And by the way, guys, 123 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, I think a MIC's opening there, so 124 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 2: I'm hearing a lot of background noise. If you guys 125 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 2: can kill that for the moment, I don't know if 126 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 2: the audience is hearing it as well, but yeah, so 127 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 2: if you guys can fix that, that'd be great. Uh. 128 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: The the so, what happened at halftime of the game, 129 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 2: right before halftime was and I know this term can 130 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 2: be overused, but was coaching malpractice. Guys. What I'm hearing it, 131 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 2: just so you guys know, is Demanse's Mike. If you 132 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 2: guys can kill that for the moment, that would be great. 133 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: What happened last night is coaching malpractice and it can't happen. 134 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 2: And so I'll give you the play by play of it, 135 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 2: but it is a stinging indictment of McCarthy's faith in 136 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 2: Dak and McCarthy's situational awareness. The Dallas Cowboys had two 137 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 2: timeouts and completed a short pass to Michael Gallup on 138 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 2: the sideline for eleven yards to get the ball to 139 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 2: the chargers thirty seven yard line. Gallup was ruled that 140 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:47,439 Speaker 2: his forward progress was stopped in bounds. Okay, So McCarthy 141 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 2: had a choice there to call timeout or not. He, 142 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 2: in my opinion, didn't realize the clock was running, and 143 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 2: then once he realized it, decided, screw it, I'll hold 144 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 2: onto the timeout. So they run a play they again, 145 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: they have at the thirty seven with fifty seconds left, 146 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 2: five zero, and they don't get their next playoff till 147 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 2: there's twenty seven seconds left. On that play, there is 148 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 2: a penalty. The next play there's another penalty, and all 149 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 2: of a sudden, we're in this situation fourteen seconds left. 150 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 2: Dallas has both timeouts, they have the ball at the seventeen. 151 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: The clock has been mismanaged to this point, but it's 152 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 2: just kind of run of the mill mismanagement, being a 153 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 2: little too protective of your timeouts. Okay. Dak then throws 154 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 2: over the middle with eight seconds left. There are the 155 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 2: play ins with eight seconds left, they're at the fourteen. 156 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: They have two timeouts. This is the key piece of it, 157 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 2: and Mike McCarthy doesn't use it until there's three seconds left. 158 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: Instead of trusting your decade long veteran franchise quarterback to 159 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 2: take a shot to the end zone, he lets it 160 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 2: go down to three seconds and kicks the field goal. 161 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 2: You can't do that. The margins are too thin. And 162 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 2: it is such an indictment of what McCarthy thinks of Dak. 163 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 2: But the problem is, Mike McCarthy, you guys ain't winning 164 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 2: a damn thing if you don't trust Dak Prescott flatly. 165 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 2: And so I thought the end of the half was unforgivable. 166 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 2: And it for a guy who picked the Cowboys to 167 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 2: go to the Super Bowl. It made me while last 168 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: night's game, the defense looked excellent, Dak looked great. The 169 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 2: coaching was so abysmal it concerned me massively. So there's 170 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: our Monday night football reaction. Demonse, got here, little la 171 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 2: traffic issues. Demonse, how are you doing this morning? No listen. 172 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 2: I told the guys, you've been doing the show for 173 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 2: eighteen months. This is the first time the traffic got you, 174 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 2: So I'm not gonna hold it against you. They had 175 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 2: a whole photoshop ready to kill you on it. I 176 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: can see right now you're very upset with yourself. I'm 177 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 2: not worried about it. The next the reason, I was 178 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 2: gonna wait till the B block to bring you in, 179 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 2: but you got here just in time to talk about 180 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 2: your new guy, the guy that Daniel Jones was replaced 181 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 2: by in brock Purty. So why don't you go right ahead? 182 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, so brock Prity finally lost his first game. He 183 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: threw his first pick, but he didn't have his key weapons. 184 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 3: I think that any quarterback would have struggled without their 185 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 3: key weapons in situation like that, best defense in football, 186 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 3: the whole nine. So he's not Patrick Mahomes, obviously. Is 187 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 3: there anybody else besides Patrick Mahomes on a on an 188 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 3: NFL team that you'd be comfortable having as your quarterback? 189 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course there's there's there's, of course there are. 190 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 2: I'd rather have Mahomes than anyone, but the guys, we 191 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 2: gotta we gotta be fair here, we I mean, I 192 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 2: see the producers wrote, yes, perty isn't the MVP. Congrats 193 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 2: on winning an argument no one was actually making. That's 194 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 2: both this is the this is what is just maddening. 195 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: It was being made on TV shows everywhere, everywhere. He 196 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 2: was fourth in the Vegas odds. But and this is 197 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 2: where I get to just kind of be a jerk 198 00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 2: and say, yeah, this is one of those those eventually 199 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 2: right takes I told you about, because everyone now is 200 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 2: grading Purdy on a curve that is tacitly admitting they 201 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 2: agree with me about his skill level. Oh, no one 202 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 2: can move the ball on the Browns defense, Lamar Jackson. 203 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 2: Did you know why? Because he's awesome? And I had 204 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 2: to listen for a month that I was a hater 205 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 2: for not admitting party was awesome. What more do you 206 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 2: want to see from Brock Purdy? I was asked, and 207 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 2: I said, well, a couple things. One is, I'd like 208 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: to see how he looks in a situation where he 209 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 2: doesn't have the Avengers around him as skill position guys, 210 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden he loses Christian McCaffrey and 211 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 2: he's terrible. He's not mediocre, he's not okay, he's terrible. 212 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 2: I asked to see that didn't pass that test. Hold 213 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 2: On the other the other other question. The other thing 214 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: I said I wanted to see was let's see them 215 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 2: in a tight second half and see how he does. 216 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 2: And the answer was a fifteen passer rating and fifty 217 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: yards in the second half. And everyone's like, oh, Nick, 218 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 2: you're being too harsh. I I'm only being too harsh 219 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 2: if everyone is now with me that he should be 220 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 2: graded on the young We're not sure how good he is, 221 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 2: give him time to grow curve. But I that's where 222 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 2: I've been putting him, And folks said, I'm being mean. 223 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 2: So now people want to be able to argue that 224 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 2: he is unquestionably a top ten quarterback and arguably the 225 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 2: most valuable player in the league, and then also be 226 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 2: able to argue you can't hold the fact that he 227 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 2: got out played by PJ Walker against him. Pick a lane, 228 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 2: Pick a lane. Folks like that, that's the the and 229 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: let's the Browns defense is awesome. But what's also true 230 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 2: is this. They've played five quarterbacks this year. The first 231 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 2: game was against Joe Burrow on one leg. Now, they 232 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 2: were great and Burrow was terrible. But I think we 233 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 2: also then saw over the next few weeks that Burrow 234 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 2: was gonna look really bad. Against most teams. The second 235 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 2: game was against Ryan Tannehill, who stinks every week. They 236 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 2: played Kenny Pickett, who had a decidedly mediocre game, not great, 237 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 2: not awful, which is exactly who Kenny Pickett is. They 238 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 2: played Lamar Jackson, who was awesome, which is exactly who 239 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson is. And they played Brock Purty and he 240 00:17:55,600 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 2: was terrible. And so take from it what you want, guys. Uh, 241 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 2: but we saw for the first time a team not 242 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 2: have to worry about Christian McCaffrey, A team dare Brock 243 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 2: Party to beat him. And he could have thrown four 244 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 2: interceptions in that game. He just could have. And anyone 245 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 2: who is being honest will admit the Niners' biggest question mark, 246 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 2: the Niners' weakest link, and the thing that makes if 247 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 2: you're a big Niners fan you the most afraid is 248 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 2: that Brock Party doesn't have it. That is just a 249 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 2: fair reading of the season. Now, DEMONSA, you tried to 250 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 2: jump in, but I was fired up, so I wouldn't 251 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 2: I stopped you, So go ahead. 252 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 3: Well, I guess the last couple of minutes of that 253 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 3: game was probably the biggest spot up until his NFL 254 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 3: career yet he did get them in the field goal 255 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 3: range without his two biggest weapons. 256 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 4: There was a hands to win the game. Was it 257 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 4: a forty three yarder? 258 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 2: I think forty one yarder? All right, so let's talk 259 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 2: about that. The first play of that drive, he throws 260 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 2: the ball right to the Browns and he drops it, 261 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 2: and people are like, oh, nick, nick, that's not fair. 262 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 2: You're gonna count dropped interceptions against him. Well, folks now 263 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 2: want to give him credit for missed field goals, right. 264 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 2: He can't play it both ways. You can't be like, 265 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 2: if the guy makes the field goal, he's a hero. Fine. 266 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 2: If Newsom catches the ball thrown to him, he's he 267 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 2: in that exact spot. First play of the drive, throws 268 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 2: a pick, And yes, I did want to see Brock 269 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 2: Purdy in that moment, and after trying to throw the 270 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 2: game away, he moved them down the field. That is true. 271 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 2: What is also true, and this is where people would 272 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 2: have gotten angry with me, But at least I am 273 00:19:55,880 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 2: consistent if that guy makes that field goal, you know what. 274 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 2: My feelings on Brock Perdy's game are twelve for twenty seven, 275 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five yards, one pick and a 276 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 2: ball that just slipped right out of his tiny hands. 277 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 2: You know what my feelings are on his performance that game, 278 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 2: that field goal made or missed. He was bad because 279 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: he was That's why the fallacy of the quarterback wins stuff. 280 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 2: But this is the double standard that I just I 281 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 2: can't get over with some of my colleagues in the media. 282 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 2: When objectively speaking, Purdy would have a mediocre game, particularly 283 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 2: last year, where McCaffrey would be unbelievable and carry them 284 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 2: and they would win. Folks would say, got nick quarterbacks 285 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 2: jobs to win the game. His job is to win 286 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 2: the game. You're gonna criticize him, and now he's awful 287 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 2: and they lose, and you know what, those same people 288 00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 2: are saying, what more do you want him to do? 289 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, be better in the first fifty nine 290 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 2: minutes so the game doesn't come down to your rookie 291 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 2: kicker outdoors in Cleveland in the rain making a kick 292 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 2: to beat p J. Walker. Is that too much? No, 293 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: it's not too much. 294 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 4: Situation. 295 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 2: So just now, what'd you say? 296 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 3: Situation sounds super similar to some other team that didn't 297 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 3: have one other team and lost to a lesser team, 298 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 3: the Chiefs. Do you what do you mean that team, 299 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 3: the Chiefs the first game of the year they lost 300 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 3: the Lions. Well, I will say the lines are looking 301 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 3: pretty good, looking pretty good. 302 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 4: They did use that game. They're supposed to be like this. 303 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 4: You put them up here in Holmes Mountain. They got 304 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 4: that one guy the top of the mountain. See. 305 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 2: But this is where people, this is and I don't 306 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 2: know if you're being serious or just trying to get 307 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 2: a rise out of me. I'm not sure. This is 308 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 2: where people make fools of themselves. We want to what 309 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 2: are we comparing right now? We're comparing Patrick Mahomes to 310 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 2: Brock Party. If people are trying to argue I give 311 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes more benefited out than Brock Party, yeah, of 312 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 2: course yes I do. And there's a reason for it. 313 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 2: Are people trying to argue that the Chiefs looked as 314 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 2: as out of sorts against the Lions as the Niners 315 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,959 Speaker 2: did against the Browns. I don't think that's what the 316 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 2: tape shows. I don't think that's the case. 317 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,399 Speaker 1: This is this is. 318 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,479 Speaker 3: Any quarterback would struggle without their two main I guess 319 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes only had Kelsey that was missing. But you'd argue, 320 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 3: yet some other things missing. Anybody would struggle at quarterback 321 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,640 Speaker 3: without two of their main weapons. 322 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 2: Sorry, no, not MVPs. Not great quarterbacks, Yes they are not. 323 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 2: They are not necessarily putting up three hundred yards. But 324 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 2: the reason you get discussed as the most valuable player 325 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 2: of the NFL is because your team can function without 326 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 2: other guys. It's because you are clearly the most valuable 327 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 2: player on your own team. These are this is what 328 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 2: I'm talking about. This is the again, where do we 329 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 2: want to discuss brock perty Do we want to hold 330 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 2: him to the standard we hold Geno Smith to? I'm 331 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 2: okay with that. Do we want to hold him to 332 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 2: the standard we hold Derek Carr to? I'm okay with that, 333 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 2: And that is a compliment to him. Those are veteran, 334 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 2: established quarterbacks. The hold on honest question. Do you think 335 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: the San Francisco forty nine ers would be worse with 336 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 2: Derek Carr? Do you think they'd be worse with Geno Smith? 337 00:23:58,440 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 4: Definitely not Joe Smith? 338 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 2: No, So, so, hold on, are are we are? We 339 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 2: have elevated this guy? That's been the discussion all last week. 340 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 2: It was is he the MVP of the league? That 341 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 2: was the discussion. And yet and yes, of course it 342 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 2: is maddening because I had this same argument with people 343 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 2: in a different form about Jimmy Garoppolo and and now 344 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 2: folks want to have it again with Brock Purty, and 345 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 2: so I'm I'm just asking, how did Kirk demonse Kirk 346 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 2: Cousins elite good, average, below average, awful. Pick a category 347 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 2: you'd put him in. I know where I. 348 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 3: Think average and kind of breaks out into elite every 349 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 3: once in a while. 350 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 2: I YEA, well, yeah, I said elite good average. So 351 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 2: it's like in the in between good and average, in 352 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 2: between good an average. Right, Okay, Kirk Cousins this week 353 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 2: didn't have Justin Jefferson and you could tell he missed him, 354 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 2: you know, didn't even throw for two hundred yards. Found 355 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 2: a way to be functional. Now they're to be fair, 356 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 2: they're playing the Bears defense versus the Browns defense, right, 357 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 2: So that's a massive, massive difference. I totally recognize that. 358 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 2: But the idea if you have to have the league's 359 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 2: best running back, the league's best left tackle, the second 360 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 2: best tight end, and a top three wide receiver duo 361 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 2: in the league in order along with the second best 362 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 2: play caller in order to be functional, you're not a 363 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 2: difference maker at the quarterback position. Here's not. And I 364 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 2: asked to see something. He was given an opportunity to 365 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 2: make me look like a fool, and instead he got 366 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 2: out played by PJ. Walker. So I just I don't 367 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 2: The jury is still out. But I was reading articles 368 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 2: and this is where and this is the other wildly 369 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 2: frustrating thing. Folks then say, these arguments are made, and 370 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 2: then people say, no, it's a straw man. It's not 371 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 2: a goddamn straw man. Mike Sando, I think it was, 372 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 2: wrote an article in The Athletic talking to NFL executives 373 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 2: about is Brock Purdy the next Joe Montana the next 374 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 2: Tom Brady or and that's not even the problem part 375 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 2: it was or is he just the next deck acting 376 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:50,199 Speaker 2: The conversation had been set exactly right, exactly right, that 377 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 2: his ceiling is two of the greatest ever and his 378 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 2: floor is, oh, he's just going to be a guy 379 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 2: who makes hundreds of millions of multiple playoff appearances, multiple 380 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 2: twelve thirteen win seasons, and as a long time starter, 381 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 2: that's not his floor. Flatly, Matt Shaub might be his floor. 382 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,719 Speaker 2: That and that might like the the that's the conversation 383 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 2: we were having. And my I have not moved the goalposts. 384 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 2: And and this is the last thing I'll say. The 385 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,719 Speaker 2: whole idea of Nick even You've got to admit you 386 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 2: would have never thought the Niners would be this good 387 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 2: with Brock perty Guys, I picked the Niners to go 388 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,439 Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl last year with a quarterback who 389 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 2: had thrown forty career passes as their starter in Trey 390 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 2: Lance forty if that maybe is forty or fifty career passes. 391 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 2: I and that was before they added Christian mc caffrey. Okay, 392 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 2: I am a strong believer in that roster. I also 393 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: let me ask one other question, because this this just 394 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 2: irritates me right now this moment. How many are you 395 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 2: I'll ask you this, Demanse, right now this moment. Do 396 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 2: you think the Niners are the favorites to win the 397 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 2: Super Bowl? 398 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 3: The favorites, favorites to win the Super Bowl? Yeah, I'd say, yeah, 399 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 3: just about to go Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if 400 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 3: it wasn't. 401 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 4: I think I think it is, though. 402 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 2: No, no, no, they literally are. But it's the I mean, 403 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 2: they are the Vegas favorites right now Okay, but you're 404 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 2: but it seems like from your reaction, you're it's. 405 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 4: Exactly. 406 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 2: It could be the Chiefs, could be the Eagles, and 407 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 2: then there's the Lions lurking or whatever. Okay, let's play 408 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 2: a game. Replace brock Purty with Spin the Wheel Lamar Jackson. 409 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 2: Are the Niners the far and away favorites, head and 410 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 2: shoulders better than everyone? Okay, Let's replace him with Trevor 411 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 2: Are they the massive favorites? Let's replace him with Jared Goff. 412 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 2: Are they the massive favorites? Let's replace him Dak Prescott, yep, 413 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts yep, of course, Josh Allen, of course. Patrick Mahomes, 414 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 2: here's a better one. Replace brock Purty with C. J. Stroud. 415 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 2: Are the Niners in a better or worse position than 416 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 2: they're in right now? Better position, of course, which is 417 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 2: why us talking about him like he's the NFL's MVP 418 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 2: is maddening. Let's move on next. Replace him, Matt Stafford. 419 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 2: They might not lose a game, go ahead. 420 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 3: Said, the Eagles are coming off of an embarrassing loss 421 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 3: to the Jets. I don't know how embarrassing it is, honestly, but. 422 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 2: I agree bouncing back. 423 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 3: Bouncing back won't be easy either, as they hosted Dolphins 424 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 3: on Sunday night. With how Philia has looked the past 425 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 3: few games, should we be hammering Dolphins plus two and 426 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 3: a half? 427 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:13,959 Speaker 2: All right, I'm not in a position to give gambling 428 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 2: advice right now. I have to recalibrate all of that. 429 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 2: But I don't think that was an embarrassing loss to 430 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 2: the Jets. Here's what I do think, Demonse. I do 431 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 2: think that Nick Sirianni should have gotten way more criticism. Listen, 432 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 2: Jalen played a bad game, and Jalen's pick at the 433 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 2: end was terrible, no denying it. But here is what 434 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 2: is also true. The New York Jets were out of timeouts. 435 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 2: It was at the two minute warning. It was third 436 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 2: and nine, and the Eagles were up by two points, 437 00:30:55,160 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 2: fourteen to twelve. It's not as if the Jets had 438 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 2: moved the ball up and down the field any of that. 439 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson's still the quarterback and on third and nine, 440 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 2: right around midfield with no timeout remaining for the Jets. 441 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 2: If you run, and if you're Sirianni, you know Hurtz 442 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 2: doesn't have it today. He's already thrown two picks. If 443 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 2: you run the football, maybe you pick it up, probably 444 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 2: you don't. If you pick up eight yards, you're gonna 445 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 2: run your stupid little brotherly shove play and you're gonna win. 446 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 2: The game's gonna be over. But let's just say you 447 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 2: run and you get zero yards. What's the situation. There's 448 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 2: then a minute fifteen left and you're punting from midfield 449 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 2: and you are saying, we have the best pass rush 450 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 2: in the NFL, the best d line in the NFL, 451 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson, you need to go sixty five yards with 452 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 2: no timeouts and a minute five left to beat us, 453 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 2: and instead you gave the game away. Now Jalen shouldn't 454 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 2: have made that throw, but it is Sirianni's job to 455 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 2: protect his team. And if you have a pass rush 456 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 2: the way you do and you are playing Zach Wilson 457 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 2: and you have the opportunity to run the ball again, 458 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 2: the no timeouts thing is critical. You are leaving the 459 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 2: Jets about sixty five seconds to go the length not 460 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 2: the length of the field, but to go two thirds 461 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 2: of the field to get into field goal range with 462 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 2: no timeouts, and instead you throw it and you lose. 463 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 2: So I think The Eagles are fine ish. I don't 464 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 2: think they're a dominant team. I didn't think they were 465 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 2: dominant when they were five and zero. I also think Demontay, 466 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 2: have you looked at their next eight games? It's yeah, 467 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 2: I'm gonna read it to you real quick. Home for 468 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 2: the Dolphins at the Commanders, who again a divisional game 469 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 2: on the road. They did beat them last year, but 470 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 2: that's not that tough. You should win that game. So 471 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 2: home for the Dolphins at the Commanders. Then home for 472 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 2: Dallas at the Chiefs, Home for the Bills, Home for 473 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 2: the Niners at Dallas at Seattle. That's the next day. 474 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 2: That is that. That is a you are thrilled if 475 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 2: you go four and four stretch, if you go five 476 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 2: and three, you feel unbelievable. And so it's not that 477 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 2: I'm overly worried about Philly, but they are they That 478 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 2: was a game they gave away. All Right, what are 479 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 2: the follow ups here? I had a tweet about the 480 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 2: brotherly show they want me to do? 481 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 4: You did have a tweet? I think we're going to 482 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 4: show it for those on YouTube? Was the time? 483 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? Go ahead, yeah, here it is. This is what 484 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 2: I wrote. I can't quite explain it. But not only 485 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 2: have the Eagles hacked the quarterback sneak, turning an eighty 486 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 2: percent successful play into a ninety eight percent successful play, 487 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 2: They've also tricked the rest of the league into turning 488 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 2: an eighty percent successful play into a forty percent successful 489 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 2: play by failing and imitating them. So this is what 490 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 2: is wild about what the Eagles have done. The quarterback 491 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 2: sneak four years was one of the most reliable plays 492 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 2: in the league. If you need a yard or less, 493 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 2: you'd run the quarterback sneak and cross teams four out 494 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 2: of five times. It would work cross teams across years. 495 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 2: The only team that really had it way way better 496 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 2: was the Patriots with Brady he was like ninety Okay, 497 00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 2: the Eagles turned that four out of five play into 498 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 2: a ninety five out of one hundred play with the 499 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 2: brotherly Shop. The rest of the league must recognize, we 500 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 2: can't do it. We don't have Jason Kelsey at center, 501 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 2: we don't have Jalen Hurts at quarterback, we don't practice 502 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 2: it enough, and now the rest of the league has 503 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 2: turned there. If you just did the old quarterback sneak, 504 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,439 Speaker 2: you'd be fine most of the time. Instead, they're trying 505 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,760 Speaker 2: to do this other thing, and I watched four teams 506 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:41,720 Speaker 2: fail at it this weekend. Four teams stop it. Stop 507 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 2: trying to do something you can't do rest of the league. 508 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,439 Speaker 2: Now folks are asking, have asked me, does this make 509 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,280 Speaker 2: me change my opinion on whether or not the NFL 510 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 2: is going to outlaw it? 511 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 4: No. 512 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 2: My argument on the NFL outlawing it is purely an 513 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 2: esthetic one. I think it is too ugly of a play. 514 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 2: I know Philly fans get mad when I say that, 515 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 2: I think and I but now maybe it's a They 516 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 2: don't have the outlaw it because it solves itself if 517 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 2: Jason Kelsey retires and if Jalen hurts at some point, 518 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 2: says guys, I, I, you know, enough of a major 519 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:27,399 Speaker 2: part of our offense being twenty guys hitting me from 520 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,319 Speaker 2: different sides. I, you know, I think I'm over that 521 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 2: piece of it. But it is clear that it is 522 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 2: unique to Philadelphia right now, and it has had downstream 523 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 2: effects hurting the rest of the league trying to imitate them. 524 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 2: All right, next, last one? 525 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 4: All Right? 526 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 3: The Bills have only had seven points going into the 527 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:51,240 Speaker 3: final five minutes of the last two weeks. They needed 528 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 3: the rest to bail them out, just to beat the 529 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 3: Giants with Tara Taylor. But there's still four and two 530 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 3: when they get to go a place face the New 531 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 3: England Patriots. Why are the Buffalo Bills trying their asses off? 532 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 3: But the Chiefs are just practicing when this type of 533 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 3: stuff happens. 534 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 2: Okay, So again, so a couple things. One is, as 535 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 2: soon as the Chiefs lose one of these practices that 536 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 2: I've talked about, people will be able to crow. But 537 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 2: not only have they not lost, they have not trailed 538 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 2: for one second in the second half in any game 539 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,360 Speaker 2: since Week one. They have not been in jeopardy of 540 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 2: losing any of these games. That's first of all. Second 541 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 2: of all, the Bills only having seven points at the 542 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 2: five minute marking back to back weeks is concerning flatly. 543 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 2: And the Bills also don't have games to give away. 544 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:59,359 Speaker 2: They easily could have lost to the Giants. Now, I'm 545 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 2: not gonna win about the refereeing. They were whining about. 546 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 2: Refereeing is just so tired. What people are going to 547 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 2: realize is it's not that they're oh my god, the 548 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 2: refs always bail out the Chiefs. What they're going to 549 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 2: realize is every single standalone, nationally televised game that is 550 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 2: close is going to have a play at the end. 551 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 2: People can bitch about wait for it this morning, get 552 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 2: on Twitter later today, and you know what, people are 553 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 2: going to all of a sudden be realizing, Holy crap, 554 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 2: did Micah Parsons rough Justin Herbert on that damn near 555 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:40,879 Speaker 2: game clinching sack? What demanse? Did you see it? Yeah? Yeah, 556 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 2: the And so the reason people think the Chiefs are 557 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 2: benefiting disproportionately is because the Chiefs are on national TV 558 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:56,760 Speaker 2: every single week, and they win every team that wins 559 00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 2: a nationally televised close game. If the way you want 560 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,760 Speaker 2: to consume pro football is find a way to discuss 561 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 2: the refs, you're gonna be able to find a play. 562 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 2: I would argue what the Bills did at the end 563 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,320 Speaker 2: of that game was actually super smart because they recognize 564 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 2: there's a little hack to end of game officiating. They 565 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 2: almost ever call the exact same penalty twice two times 566 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 2: in a row. So once you get called for pass 567 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 2: interference on the final play of the game, you know 568 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:32,400 Speaker 2: what you should do on the untimedown pass interfere Because 569 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 2: refs don't want to call the same penalty two times 570 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 2: in a row to end a game. They just don't. 571 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 2: And so I got no problem what the Bills did 572 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 2: where I now what I will say is and I 573 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,920 Speaker 2: tweeted this as well, and this is another one of 574 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 2: those things that I just know I'm right on. So 575 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 2: I don't care. I like sometimes I send out these 576 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 2: tweets and I'm like, oh my god, like I'm gonna 577 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 2: get ratio. People are gonna, you know, say I'm a 578 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 2: hater or whatever it is. But I know I'm right. 579 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 2: So that Josh Allen touchdown pass was one of the 580 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 2: single most impressive throws anyone has made all year, and 581 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 2: a terrible decision. And why I don't trust the Bills. 582 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 2: So Demonse's laughing, and I understand people are like, Nick, 583 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 2: what are you talking about? Here's what I'm talking about. 584 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:27,280 Speaker 2: It is second and six, there are four minutes left. 585 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 2: You are playing the New York Giants, who prior to 586 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 2: this game had not led in a game all year, 587 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 2: had not led for a single play all year. Prior 588 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 2: to this game. They're playing their backup quarterback, and they 589 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 2: hadn't scored a touchdown in a month, had not scored 590 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,799 Speaker 2: a touchdown a month, you're down two points, you're in 591 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:59,919 Speaker 2: the red zone. It is second and six. The own 592 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 2: only thing you can't do is throw a pick. A 593 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 2: field goal wins you the game. Now, Josh made a 594 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 2: throw that I don't even know Mahomes can make. Getting 595 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 2: that velocity on that ball, hitting that tight of a window, 596 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:27,839 Speaker 2: it was unbelievable. But that is absolutely the reason they 597 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 2: are He is such a hard player to trust. You 598 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:35,240 Speaker 2: can be wowed by him, but it's hard to trust 599 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 2: him because that was a bad decision. It worked out, 600 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,839 Speaker 2: and it's one of the best plays I've most impressive 601 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 2: plays I've ever seen. It also could have cost them 602 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 2: a game they had no business losing. And so if 603 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 2: you're going to and this is the nuance to it, 604 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 2: if you're going to take those types of risk, have 605 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 2: that type of boom bust quarterback, then I need you 606 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 2: to not for back to back weeks, have seven points 607 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 2: at the five minute mark of the fourth quarter. If 608 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 2: the whole idea behind your team is yeah, we're gonna 609 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 2: make some mistakes, but man, the upside's so great, then 610 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 2: you need to not be sitting on seven as the 611 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:30,360 Speaker 2: game hits the three hour mark. In back to back weeks. 612 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 2: That's not unfair, Bruce said to me the other day. Well, yeah, 613 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 2: you know, he's the modern day Brett Farv. Brett Farv 614 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 2: by this point of his career had won multiple MVPs 615 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 2: and been to multiple Super Bowls and won a championship. 616 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 2: Not quite the modern day Brett Farv. Like, Yes, the 617 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 2: modern day Brett Farv minus the championships, the Super Bowl appearances, 618 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:02,439 Speaker 2: and the league MVPs. So I the and as far 619 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 2: as why are the Chiefs allowed to practice and other 620 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 2: teams aren't because they're the defending champions. Because in the 621 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 2: last five years, the Bill's best year was worse than 622 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 2: the Chiefs worst year. Okay, in the last since Mahomes 623 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 2: has been there. Take the chief single worst season losing 624 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 2: in overtime in the conference championship game. Take the Bill's 625 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:42,839 Speaker 2: best season getting blown out in the conference championship game 626 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,959 Speaker 2: by Kansas City. Yes, I hold the teams to different standards. Yes, 627 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 2: a team that has lost once in the last eleven 628 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 2: months and it was by one point without their second 629 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 2: and third best player that team, I am going to 630 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 2: give more of a benefit of the doubt too. I 631 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 2: am you can call me crazy. I say that is 632 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 2: the most logical thing ever. And so and also, by 633 00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 2: the way, here's the other margin of error factor the 634 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 2: Chiefs if they win Sunday. And I'm worried about Sunday 635 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,719 Speaker 2: because the Chargers play the Chiefs tough that they never 636 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:28,280 Speaker 2: beat the Chiefs, but they play them in three point 637 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 2: games every single year, and at some point the Chargers 638 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,879 Speaker 2: win those will win one of those games. But if 639 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:40,760 Speaker 2: the Chiefs win on Sunday, they will have essentially locked 640 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 2: up the division. By mid October, they'll be six and one. 641 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 2: The Chargers will be two and four, having already lost, 642 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 2: you know, one of the head to heads, and the 643 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 2: Raiders are in second place at three and three, and 644 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:01,200 Speaker 2: Jimmy Garoppolo is going to the hospital. Old Luggiddon's back 645 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 2: looked at. So the Bills, on the other hand, if 646 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:11,840 Speaker 2: you know, needed to escape against Tyrod Taylor to not 647 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 2: fall behind the Jets in the standings. These two things 648 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 2: are not the same.

You've been super heavy on Caleb Williams. 670 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 3: But if telling them that, have been warning everybody about 671 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 3: jumping on the Wimby boat. Are you sure that you 672 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 3: jumped on the wrong generational talent or are you worried 673 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 3: that you jumped on the wrong. 674 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 2: No, so listen, if people were talking about Wimby the 675 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 2: way I'm talking about Caleb, I'd be fine with it. 676 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,320 Speaker 2: I've said, now, it's a little tough in the NFL 677 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 2: because we break it down by position, not by like 678 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:05,279 Speaker 2: overall players in the league. But when I've said that 679 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 2: Caleb is one of the five most valuable football players 680 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,359 Speaker 2: in the world right now moving forward, if you said, hey, 681 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 2: Jannis Jokic, who else would you rather have for the 682 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 2: next decade than Wimby, I'd listen to that. That's not 683 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 2: the conversation that's been had around Victor Winbinyama. The conversation 684 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 2: has been that by year three, this was what Woje 685 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 2: said on the night of the draft lottery, by year three, 686 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:42,040 Speaker 2: he will be head and shoulders, no pun intended, the 687 00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 2: best player in the league, the best offensive player and 688 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 2: the best defensive player, something only a handful of guys 689 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:55,279 Speaker 2: have ever been at any point in their careers, the 690 00:47:55,320 --> 00:48:00,040 Speaker 2: best offensive and defensive player in the entire sport. That 691 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 2: the X Men. That's where what was said about Wimby 692 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 2: was if he does not end up as one of 693 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 2: the ten greatest football basketball players ever ever, he's a disappointment. 694 00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 2: What I've said about Caleb is I'd rather have him 695 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:25,720 Speaker 2: than Justin Herbert. These are not the same things. Now, 696 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 2: what I will tell you is about both these guys. 697 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 2: One is I don't know what Wimby is going to 698 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:37,800 Speaker 2: look like in real games on offense in the beginning, 699 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 2: but on defense, he absolutely is going to be an 700 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 2: a defender immediately. And what we're seeing on the hesitation 701 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 2: people have on even putting shots up in his vicinity 702 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:03,720 Speaker 2: is true, unbelievable, and so I'm excited to watch it. Listen, 703 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 2: once the games count, somebody is going to try to 704 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:10,240 Speaker 2: just go through him. Somebody is gonna see if, okay, 705 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,120 Speaker 2: how much does the wingspan matter? If I push you 706 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 2: under the basket, And I want to see how he 707 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:20,320 Speaker 2: reacts to it. But Wimby's preseason could not be going 708 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:24,280 Speaker 2: better as far as Caleb goes. Find me the college 709 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 2: player that never has a single bad game. I mean, 710 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 2: give me a break. The amount of oh, Nick, what 711 00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:32,919 Speaker 2: do you think about Caleb Williams Now the exact same 712 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 2: thing I thought about him before Notre Dame. Listen, guys, 713 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 2: I'm sorry that because Caleb Williams has set the standard 714 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:46,800 Speaker 2: so incredibly high that seeing him play a bad game 715 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 2: feels it generates an allergic reaction. I'm sorry that going 716 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 2: into the Notre Dame game, this guy had, let me 717 00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 2: get it exactly right, eighty five ive touchdowns to ten picks. 718 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 2: We had seen him play thirty two games he had 719 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 2: ten picks, and then in the Notre Dame game he 720 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 2: was bad. He had three picks and the Notre Dame 721 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 2: kicked his ass. People are like, uh, what are you 722 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,839 Speaker 2: ready to say about him? Now? What am I ready 723 00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:19,360 Speaker 2: to say about the guy who, on the season has 724 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:25,360 Speaker 2: twenty nine touchdowns four interceptions and is now even with 725 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:29,880 Speaker 2: the Notre Dame game, just having the third best season 726 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 2: by a passer rating perspective in the history of college football. 727 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:37,520 Speaker 2: I think he's still pretty phenomenal. So no, I'm not 728 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:40,719 Speaker 2: worried at all about Caleb. I have been impressed by 729 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:43,600 Speaker 2: Wimby all right, next, all. 730 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:45,839 Speaker 3: Right and bringing back an whole game today and tear 731 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 3: it down and turn it around. I'll give you a 732 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:49,880 Speaker 3: team and you will say whether they should tear it 733 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,920 Speaker 3: down before the trade deadline, or if they should make 734 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 3: a move for a late season turnaround. First off, we've 735 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 3: got the Jets. The jets amazing defense has them in 736 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:02,120 Speaker 3: the playoff conversation, and Rodgers was even seen throwing past 737 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 3: his pregame Sunday, I know you have doubts, but are 738 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 3: you really betting. 739 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 4: Against the sky Er and Rogers? Should the Jets tear 740 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 4: it down or turn it around? 741 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 2: Well? Yeah, I mean I don't think they should tear 742 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 2: it down. I think they should try to, you know, 743 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 2: make a playoff push. Obviously, Aaron, Aaron, This idea that 744 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers is gonna play this year is one of 745 00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 2: the most ludicrous things I've ever heard in my life. 746 00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 2: I like it, though flatly not gonna happen. You like it? 747 00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:25,759 Speaker 2: How come? 748 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:26,400 Speaker 4: I like? 749 00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 5: I do? 750 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,760 Speaker 4: Think? Uh, I don't. 751 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,360 Speaker 3: I think he is giving hope to his teammates and 752 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 3: like kind of keeping them in the game. I think 753 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 3: he's doing it. I think he's doing it for his team. 754 00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:44,839 Speaker 3: He's no, okay fair. I think that, like, his team 755 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 3: was obviously really let down when that happened, and I 756 00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 3: feel like he was also let down. He probably felt 757 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,160 Speaker 3: like he let the team down. I think that he's 758 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,799 Speaker 3: trying to keep them in the picture and keep spirits up, 759 00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:55,719 Speaker 3: you know, keep the morale up in the locker room. 760 00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 2: You know what. That is an incredibly generous reading of it. 761 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 2: You might be correct. I think he wants the attention. Personally, 762 00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:06,680 Speaker 2: I think he wants the attention, and I think there 763 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 2: is no chance he is back this year. But we'll 764 00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 2: see how it plays out. But in the meantime, that 765 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 2: Jet where I will admit I was wrong is the 766 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 2: Jets defense is better than I thought it was gonna 767 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 2: be good, very good. It's been great. Garrett Wilson I 768 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:28,879 Speaker 2: thought was, you know, like the tenth, eleventh, twelfth best 769 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:32,240 Speaker 2: receiver in football. He's been better than that. Breeze Hall's 770 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:34,720 Speaker 2: been excellent. The offensive line is a problem, and obviously 771 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson's a problem, but credit to the Jets in 772 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:42,399 Speaker 2: that regard. And what's unbelievable to Monsey is had they 773 00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:47,319 Speaker 2: just not lost to the damn Patriots, they'd really be 774 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 2: cooking right now, and the Patriots might be the worst 775 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 2: team in the whole AFC all right now. 776 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 3: A crazy take like is saying that the Jets would 777 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,520 Speaker 3: be undefeated if they had Aaron Rodgers. Is that like 778 00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:01,160 Speaker 3: a is that a horrible take? I mean they've had one, 779 00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:03,600 Speaker 3: They've had one game that wasn't close, and I think 780 00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 3: it was against the Cowboys. 781 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,759 Speaker 2: The Cowboys. Yeah, I don't think they'd have beaten the 782 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 2: here's the thing about the about the about them being undefeated. 783 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 2: I don't think they'd have beaten the Chiefs the Cowboys. 784 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:21,839 Speaker 2: But but here's the thing. I know you're saying, like, oh, 785 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:26,760 Speaker 2: that's ridiculous if they had Aaron Rodgers in that specific game, 786 00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:31,479 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson like put up Aaron Rodgers type numbers. It's 787 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 2: not like they played the Chiefs close with terrible quarterback play. 788 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 2: Does that make sense? Like the Patriots game? They you 789 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:42,720 Speaker 2: know they they definitely beat the Patriots with Aaron Rodgers. 790 00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 2: The Patriots, it was a five point game. Go ahead. 791 00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:53,120 Speaker 3: Sorry, would you say he's worth three points in general? 792 00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 2: In general? Yes, but I guess two points. One is 793 00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:01,640 Speaker 2: I ain't the Chiefs got up seven team nothing and 794 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 2: winning cruise control mode because they're playing Zach Wilson and 795 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 2: the Jets. And secondarily, Zach in that game completed seventy 796 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 2: five percent of his passes at two hundred and fifty 797 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 2: yards at a one to five rating, two touchdowns, snow 798 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 2: picks like Aaron I don't think would have done in 799 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 2: that specific game far better. So I don't know about undefeated. 800 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 2: The Cowboys game, they got blown out, but they also 801 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 2: got blown out because of how bad the quarterback play was, 802 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 2: like a kind of ball started rolling downhill. I do 803 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:34,160 Speaker 2: think this, and Sala tried to walk it back this morning. 804 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:40,480 Speaker 2: But if you actually think you're a playoff contender, talking 805 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 2: on Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes probably a bad idea 806 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 2: because he said, we've played great quarterbacks and we've. 807 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 4: Been embarrassed him right, all right, So. 808 00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:52,920 Speaker 2: Let's let's talk about that for a second. You definitely 809 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 2: have to play the Bills again this year, and you hope, 810 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:01,880 Speaker 2: against hope to have the opportuno to play the Chiefs 811 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:07,480 Speaker 2: again this year. Maybe don't say you embarrassed those quarterbacks. Patrick, 812 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:09,880 Speaker 2: he's not scared. 813 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,440 Speaker 4: Maybe don't say it. I don't say what he wants. 814 00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, tell that to the folks who were screaming 815 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:20,160 Speaker 2: about Borrowhead Invitational, about the Boroughhead, about Burrowhead Stadium. I mean, 816 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 2: that's that's fine, all right. 817 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:26,240 Speaker 3: Next, Oh, we got Patriots, Come on, and you're seriously 818 00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:30,240 Speaker 3: coming counting out the best coach of all time, the Jets. 819 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:33,719 Speaker 3: If the Jets can resurrect Zach Wilson, can Belichick resurrect 820 00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:34,400 Speaker 3: Mac Jones? 821 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 2: Should they tear it down? You got to tear it down. 822 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:40,719 Speaker 2: Here's a question I asked on the TV show yesterday. 823 00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 2: If the Patriots released every single player on their offense, 824 00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:47,440 Speaker 2: just cut them all, would any one of them start 825 00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,960 Speaker 2: start for another team? I don't know, maybe like Trent 826 00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:54,840 Speaker 2: Brown for a team of the bad offensive line, Romandre 827 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:57,799 Speaker 2: Stevenson for a few teams they have no talent. 828 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 4: They even tear it down if you don't have any Jesus. 829 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 2: No, you got it? I mean yeah, I mean you 830 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:05,759 Speaker 2: can hope to get Caleb you can. You just got 831 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,480 Speaker 2: to tear it all down. And this is going to 832 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 2: be an ignominious end for Belichick. Car so fast next, Yeah, 833 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:13,440 Speaker 2: the whole thing. 834 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:16,840 Speaker 3: Vikings Kirk Cousins said he wouldn't wave his no trade clause, 835 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 3: But do we really believe that with no justin Jefferson, 836 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 3: maybe it's time to rebuild. 837 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:24,080 Speaker 4: Should the Vikings tear it down and turn it around? 838 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:29,640 Speaker 2: Yes, I absolutely believe it that he wouldn't wave his 839 00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:32,240 Speaker 2: no trade clause. He's trying to get another Giant payday 840 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 2: and going to another team in a new system doesn't 841 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:38,200 Speaker 2: help him with that. He's comfortable in Minnesota, he likes 842 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:41,879 Speaker 2: it there. It's indoors. They but they should tear it down. 843 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:44,320 Speaker 2: I mean they've got to start over. You build around 844 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,480 Speaker 2: justin Jefferson and not much else. That's what you do 845 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 2: there next. I like Addison too. 846 00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 3: You've been teasing that Russell Wilson's time has already done, 847 00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 3: even if the Broncos are dragging their feet. But Denver 848 00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 3: has a lot of pieces they could trade now for 849 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 3: a kickstart to rebuild. Should the Bronco tear it down 850 00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 3: or turn it around? 851 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,400 Speaker 2: No, they obviously have to tear it down, and I 852 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,440 Speaker 2: mean they also have a chance at Caleb if not 853 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,319 Speaker 2: another quarterback. They're gonna tear it down. They're gonna cut 854 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson this offseason, and I think he's gonna get 855 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 2: benched after the Chiefs game. They have two more games 856 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:19,320 Speaker 2: then they have a bye week. The Chiefs game is 857 00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 2: the second one, the one leading into the bye week. 858 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,560 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna bench him there. Put your questions 859 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:25,760 Speaker 2: in the chat now and we'll answer him. Next quick 860 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:33,320 Speaker 2: break right back, what's right? All right, we'll go through 861 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 2: a few quick questions. By the way, a programming note today, 862 00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:38,959 Speaker 2: today the TV show is only thirty minutes long two 863 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:43,960 Speaker 2: to two thirty because we have live programming on FS one. 864 00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:46,360 Speaker 2: We'll be back to our regular schedule tomorrow. But that 865 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:49,160 Speaker 2: means we got jam back TV show because it's Tuesday, 866 00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:53,840 Speaker 2: which means it's Mahomes Mountain Day. And spoiler alert, Caleb 867 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,280 Speaker 2: tripped on the mountain but did not fall off the mountain. 868 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 2: I'm not that crazy, all right, demanse, what are some 869 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 2: of the questions that we have from the audience. 870 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 3: Joshua Harbin said, people are actually forgetting their party still 871 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:07,640 Speaker 3: had Kittle and Ayuk San Francisco fans are so funny. 872 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean, listen, he was down his two 873 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:13,160 Speaker 2: best weapons, so all he had left was a one 874 00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:16,280 Speaker 2: really good receiver and the second best tight end in football. 875 00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 2: I mean, it's just an impossible situation. 876 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:23,000 Speaker 3: Next, Mohammed musa question. If NBA players started shooting granny 877 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 3: style free throws at ninety percent, would Nick won it 878 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:27,080 Speaker 3: banned for esthetic reasons? 879 00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 4: Great question? 880 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:31,360 Speaker 2: No, they yeah, it's a fine question. But we never 881 00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:33,439 Speaker 2: have to worry about that because guys have too much 882 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,440 Speaker 2: pride to try to gain the system like that. Like 883 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:38,800 Speaker 2: give me a break. You're like, oh, yeah, that's what 884 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:40,480 Speaker 2: they should do. No, it's not what they should do. 885 00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 2: This is the entertainment business, and there is a professional 886 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:48,760 Speaker 2: pride in doing things the way they're supposed to be done. 887 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 2: So I know people give me a hard time about that. 888 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,479 Speaker 2: The entire goal is to win kind of. 889 00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,160 Speaker 4: But it's also history with the touch plus thing. 890 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,480 Speaker 2: Well, and the more team that fail on it, the 891 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:05,240 Speaker 2: more respect Philly gets for it. That it's not like 892 00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 2: that that it is they have gained the system in 893 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:11,080 Speaker 2: a way that is unique to their personnel, which is 894 00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 2: I think more impressive than otherwise. 895 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,880 Speaker 3: Next toush Bush is like a button on your back. 896 00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:21,440 Speaker 3: Clark Nebras or nebres Is Nick. Is Ion still a 897 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,160 Speaker 3: top young player or has the hype sailed? 898 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 2: No, he's still a top young player in theory, and 899 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,560 Speaker 2: when he's played he's been unbelievable. But you have to 900 00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:35,200 Speaker 2: be worried about him on court and off court. So 901 00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 2: like there is the I wouldn't sell my Zion stock, 902 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:41,600 Speaker 2: but I wouldn't be buying more. 903 00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:41,960 Speaker 4: Of it, all right. 904 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 3: Next Ember, Lindo Garzan asks, should the Jaguars sit Trevor 905 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 3: this Thursday? 906 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I'd probably not. You got to see how 907 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,720 Speaker 2: his knee feels. You gotta be careful with him, but 908 00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 2: you also got to win games all of a sudden 909 00:59:56,160 --> 01:00:00,560 Speaker 2: with the with the Texans being a legit frisk team, 910 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 2: you can't give games away, and so you try to 911 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:08,320 Speaker 2: protect Trevor. But if he can go, he goes. All right, 912 01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:10,360 Speaker 2: ask CF Candy's question and then we'll. 913 01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:12,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, we see Nick. Do you think Caleb goes back 914 01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:15,400 Speaker 3: to us? See if the Bears have the first round pick. 915 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:19,160 Speaker 2: The first No, this is such a ridiculous idea. First 916 01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:22,280 Speaker 2: of all, guess what, guys, Every team ever that gets 917 01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 2: the first overall pick stinks. There's not a lot of 918 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 2: instances like, oh, going to this great franchise with the 919 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:32,680 Speaker 2: first overall pick. No, you're not. Second of all, the 920 01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 2: Bears have their pick and the Panthers pick. So if 921 01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 2: Caleb goes to Chicago, it's an incredible It's a division. 922 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 2: The Packers are in rebuild, the Vikings are in rebuild. 923 01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 2: You also probably can draft Marvin Harrison junior and they're 924 01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:50,840 Speaker 2: gonna hire it an awesome I said it a month ago. 925 01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:54,959 Speaker 2: Draft Caleb at one, Marvin Harrison Junior at two or three, 926 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:58,120 Speaker 2: and then hire Ben Johnson from Detroit and get rolling 927 01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:02,000 Speaker 2: Demont's great work.
