You may think, oh, you know, there's only 0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:07.959 a few games going on this weekend. Speeds ain't gonna 0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:10.479 have much. We got so much. I don't think we're 0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:13.720 going to get through it all today. Alright. I gotta 0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:15.479 give you news and notes. I gotta give you the injuries. 0:01:15.480 --> 0:01:18.000 I gotta give you my thoughts on wild Card weekend. 0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:23.440 Back by popular demand, people, we have Speeds Verse, the 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:26.720 kids and Danny, I'm a little bit worried this year. 0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:29.640 All right, I'll tell you why a little bit later 0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:31.520 on on in the show. And we got a special 0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:34.760 event here tonight. Okay, we may or may not. It 0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:37.119 looks like we're going to have a special guest too, 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:41.080 special guests in studio. I kid you not. The Professional 0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:44.160 bull Riding Tour is here in New York. They got 0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.320 a big time event going on, Unleash the Beast this 0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:50.560 weekend at Madison Square Garden. We are going to potentially 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:54.040 have not one but two of the biggest bull riders 0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:58.680 in the country here on set with the spitting statistician. Uh. 0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.480 That should be fun. We'll see if we last one 0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:04.760 them on into Studio thirty four. But that means we 0:02:04.800 --> 0:02:06.960 don't have as much time to talk about all the 0:02:06.960 --> 0:02:10.400 news and updates that we need to as we go 0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:14.079 into wild Card weekend. So first in the chat room, 0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:16.480 I want to hear listen, it is a new year. 0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:18.919 Thank you, Dilly Dilly to the Cipher. I hope the 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.200 Cipher had high great you know, celebration to ring in 0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:23.320 a new decade. I want to know, like, what are 0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:28.040 your sports resolutions the year? I have a few okay, 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:31.520 things like, oh, I don't know, maybe thirty more states 0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:34.440 should legalize sports gambling. How about that that could be 0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:38.440 a resolution? What about maybe strikeout should matter a little 0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:42.360 bit more than they do right now in Major League Baseball? 0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:46.000 What are your sports World New Year's resolutions? Things you 0:02:46.000 --> 0:02:49.640 would like to see happen in We gotta poll question 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:52.959 up as well. That pole question is which of these 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:57.040 four wild card games are you most interested in seeing 0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:00.600 this week? You know, do you think the miracle uh 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:03.520 in Minneapolis? You know kind of rematch is gonna be 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:05.960 big things? Do you think it is maybe the end 0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:09.000 of the Patriots dynasty and you want to see it crumble? 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:14.000 Right now? That is the leading vote, getting option one 0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:15.880 percent of You'll say the Titans and the paths of 0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:18.040 the game you want to see most, and that I 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:19.320 know has a lot of buzz. I'll tell you what 0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:21.240 I think about it. We'll hear what some of the 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.880 kids think about it as well. If we have time. 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.680 I'll also give you some DFS nuggets for a wild 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:30.040 Card weekend. I uh, I'm getting involved in a tournament 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:33.040 that my boys, Frank Stanfel and Greg Susman do affectionately 0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:36.200 known as the BFFs. They run a contest, a DFS contest. 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:39.280 I joined it. I'll tell you what I'm doing and 0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:41.600 how you can win a little bit of cache there 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:43.920 as well. But the first thing I gotta tell you is, 0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:45.680 let's look at these teams that are in fact playing 0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:48.120 this weekend, what the injury concerns are. Right, That's what 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:50.160 we usually do on a Thursday, And you gotta start 0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:53.080 with Philadelphia. There is no team that is a walking 0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:56.360 match unit more than the Philadelphia Eagles at this point. 0:03:56.360 --> 0:04:01.000 But the most important ones, in my opinion are Listen, 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:04.480 zach Ertz was back practicing today, alright with that rib injury. 0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:08.560 You know he's got an issue there. Um, I listen, 0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:10.320 if they can shoot him up number the pain, he's 0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:13.160 gonna go. He gritted it out in that game week sixteen. 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:17.080 He's gonna go if he can. But don't forget that 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:19.800 they're so thin at that position. Remember they've been running 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:22.880 out to three tight ends anyway, So maybe that's a 0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:26.320 big day for Dallas Goddard. All right, if Earth's can 0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:28.440 or cannot go, I think that I think it's a 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:31.400 good game for Goddard anyway. Alright, but keep an eye 0:04:31.440 --> 0:04:34.200 on that one, and Miles Sanders still has yet to 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:38.320 practice coming off that ankle sprain. He said he avoided 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:41.240 the dreaded high ankle sprain, but he still has yet 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:44.119 to practice. That would be huge for the Philadelphia Eagles, 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:48.120 making sure they have him, Nelson agilor DeShawn Jackson all gone. 0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.880 At least they have Jordan Howard back, and he may 0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:52.640 prove to be very important. You know how I've been 0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:55.400 talking about him all season long, especially if there's no 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:58.800 Miles Sanders for Seattle. Listen, it's about Dayne Brown. That 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:02.600 offensive tackle out with the meniscus, all right, will he 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:05.520 make it back? All right? As they're trying to protect 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:07.600 Russell Wilson. All right, they're gonna go at it with 0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:11.880 Homer and Marshawn Lynch. In Houston, Will Fuller maybe on 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:14.320 the way back he was limited, has that groin injury. 0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:15.800 It looks like he's gonna go. It's gonna be all 0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:18.359 hands on deck, even J J. Watt. It looks like 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:21.040 we'll be active for the Houston Texans. In Minnesota, you 0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.560 gotta worry about the running back position right well. Alexander 0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:28.200 Madison limited back at practice off that ankle injury. Looks 0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:30.680 like he's trending in the positive direction. And of course 0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:33.760 Dalvin Cook says today that he is refreshed and ready 0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:37.000 to go coming off that shoulder injury. In New England, 0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:41.120 Julian Edelman is a concern. He was limited in practice, 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:44.160 although he's saying he's good enough to go. You know 0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:46.799 they're gonna run him out there. Tennessee is interesting too. 0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:50.080 Adam humphreees their slot receiver, did not practice. He's still 0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:52.280 nursing that ankle injury. You know how I love a 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:55.760 j Brown. Corey Davis Humphries plays an interesting role as well. 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:57.919 He plays like the adelman role, but more importantly to me, 0:05:57.960 --> 0:06:01.080 and this is an interesting one. Jack Conklin, the Pro 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:04.280 Bowl offensive lineman, was downgraded. Remember I say all the time, 0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:06.960 it depends on what direction they're trending in. He went 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:10.880 downgraded from ful to a limited participant with a knee issue. 0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:13.479 You gotta watch that because if he can't go, that 0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:16.240 is a huge problem for Derrick Henry in the run game, 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:18.920 and of course Tannehill as well. In New Orleans, it's 0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.479 really about that tackle Andres Pete with his form. Remember 0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:25.400 he missed the last couple of weeks. Buffalo is pretty healthy, alright, 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:27.880 Levi Wallace. Maybe a cornerback is limited and practice with 0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:30.320 an ankle, but that's about it, all right. So we 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:33.080 have other headlines that we're gonna get into, all right, 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:35.440 and then what we are going to do when we 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:39.360 come back, and I'm excited about it. We're gonna start 0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:41.680 Speeds Versus the Kids. Okay, So when we come back, 0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:43.720 I got a couple of news and notes, all right, 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:46.880 still mostly about the coaching ranks and the front office 0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:49.000 is because we've been talking about that merrygo around. We've 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:52.560 learned some more things about that. And then Danny, you 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:55.080 better get ready with your picks. I'm gonna be ready 0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:58.719 with my picks because Danny, there are kids lining up 0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:01.440 this year to go ahead and try to dethrone the 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:05.320 spitting statistician. Uh. If you're new to the show, new 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:08.000 to the Status over Beat Cipher, new to the the Sports Grade, 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:11.400 new to Pluto TV, I'll explain everything we're talking about 0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:13.680 when we come back on the other side of the break. 0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:16.480 So I got some coaching news and notes. Then what 0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:18.680 we will do is we will get into the two 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:23.040 thousand and nine season of Speeds Verse the Kids, will 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:26.480 get Danny's take, and in that process you will get 0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:30.400 my thoughts. On wild Card Weekend, there were four games. 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:34.040 Let's put it this way. The amount of favorites I 0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:38.400 like it ain't four, it ain't three. It ain't to 0:07:38.920 --> 0:07:42.640 find out which one it is and why I'm afraid 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:44.640 that one of these kids are gonna beat me this year. 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.400 Come on back, it's the status over beat Cipher Fantasy 0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:52.480 Freestyle here on Sports Grade, episode four thirty.

Come on, we do the 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:46.840 humpty hump. Back on Fantasy Freestyle, episode four hundred and thirty. 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:48.680 I told you I'll give you the injury news and 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:50.960 the guys that you gotta watch for these wild card games. 0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:53.920 But a lot of the news this week was made 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:56.120 really in the coaching ranks, in the front office ranks. 0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:59.840 And remember we did we profiled the Black Monday firings 0:08:59.880 --> 0:09:02.360 on Monday. I talked to you what I consider the 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:09.520 factors in um prioritizing different jobs, shall we say and listen. 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:12.840 One of the things that also happened. There are a 0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:15.160 few coaches that I felt worth treading on thin ice. 0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:20.400 I even suggested Patricia in Detroit, and they didn't get fired. 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:22.760 But in essence, if you read the tea leaves, they 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:25.640 were forced to fire their whole staff. And that's like 0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:29.360 the interim step before you dead man walking. And that 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:31.800 happened in Detroit. Like I said, Matt Patricia fired all 0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:35.880 his assistance. In Chicago, Matt Nagy also fired his assistance. 0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:38.600 So that means to me, and I say this because 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:40.840 you know every year they bring up odds on like 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:43.960 first coach to be fired, and you gotta look at 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:46.480 Nage and Patricia next year. Okay, because their their their 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:49.439 ownership is clearly not happy with them. They had to 0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:52.960 make their coaches be the fall guy. Um, so you know, 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:54.960 keep an eye out for those guys. I think they 0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:58.319 will be in transition, not this year, but potentially next year. 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:01.160 The Dolphins went ahead and hired and Gailly out of 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:03.680 retirement to be the offensive coordinator, and on its face, 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:06.560 this looks silly, right Gailey is like sixty years old, 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:09.240 was retired. People worried about maybe the league had passed 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:12.000 him by. I don't think so, all right, I think 0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:14.560 this is interesting. He has a history with Fitzpatrick. He 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:20.280 has the spread it out and sling it scheme, and 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:22.360 to me, at least it's in line with their plan, 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:25.080 Like they have a vision and that's better than some 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:27.800 foreign offices that don't. They know what they want to do. 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:29.880 Maybe they go and get to attack of LAWA and 0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:31.640 they rest him as a red shirt year to learn 0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:34.160 under Fitzpatrick, who I have said is a great mentor, 0:10:34.840 --> 0:10:36.520 and to develop this scheme, and that's what they want 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:38.040 to do. So I think it's interesting. And by the way, 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:40.400 I say this because if you thought I love Davante 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:43.960 Parker last year or this year or the unicorn Preston 0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:47.319 Williams or GAZICKI ascending and this kind of scheme, it 0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:51.080 could be a nice little boost for those guys in fantasy. Still, however, 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:54.160 no word on Jason Garrett, which is absolutely ridiculous. I've 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:58.200 said this on Making Rain. There's rumors about Mike Zimmer 0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:00.400 and that Jerry Jones has a soft spot for Zimmer. 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:02.960 Remember Zimmer and the Vikings are playing this weekend, so 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:04.800 that could be be tied to it. Maybe they can't 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:07.360 make a decision because they're real candidate that they want. 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:12.000 They can't really you know, tampering maybe, so we'll see that. 0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:15.480 Doug maron, uh, it's coming back in Jacksonville. I think 0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:17.080 that's a bad decision. I think they should have ripped 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:18.400 the band aid off. They're trying to put it all 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:20.520 on Coughlin, and it might have all been Coughlin's fault, 0:11:21.040 --> 0:11:23.760 but you know, they had an opportunity to fully turn 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:27.000 the page, and uh, usually it doesn't work. If this guy, 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:29.040 you know, now what, all of a sudden, his message 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.280 is going to lead them to the playoffs, I'm not 0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:34.200 so sure about that. We'll see and also listen adding 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:36.040 to this kind of quarterback merry go round and we're 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:38.920 gonna go through it, uh coach GM Chris Ballard as says, 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.480 quote unquote to jury is still out on Jacoby Broussette. 0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:44.920 We're here in that same kind of smoke about Jamis 0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:48.360 Winston and Tampa, about car in Las Vegas. Now, so 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:52.880 again it will be a very interesting market, all right, Danny. 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:56.640 Let's move on, Danny. We have four wild Card games 0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:59.760 to preview, and it is Speeds versus the kids. Now, 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:01.480 for those of you who are new to the show, 0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.400 all right, what I do I believe Danny would has 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:06.440 gotta be like the fourth year in a row, like 0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:11.120 last week. I think it's you've been doing it long before. Yeah, 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:14.200 but it's all good. So it's a long standing tradition, Danny. 0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.360 I've got four kids that are coming back from last year, 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:19.920 all right, and I got like five or six kids 0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:23.000 who are new to the game, alright. So the way 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:25.280 it works is we let the kids make their picks 0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:27.400 straight up, this is not what the point spread, and 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:29.920 then you and me make picks right and it's straight up, 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:31.920 So listen and we see if any of the kids 0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:35.080 can outpick the spitting statistician. But the key of it 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:37.760 is really their analysis, right, Danny, they have some great insights. 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:40.880 This is authentic. This is what they believe. Kid parents 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:43.160 are not, you know, coaching them up. So let's see. 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:47.960 First of all, Danny, I told you we have some returners, right, 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:53.280 and one of the returners is Dylan. Alright, can we play? 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:56.960 But Dylan is really chomping at the bit, Danny, Dylan, 0:12:57.080 --> 0:13:00.959 I call him Tito. He's like my godson. Um. Dylan, 0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:04.320 I guess did well last year, and before giving his picks, 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:06.280 he wanted me to remember. He wanted me to know 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:09.440 that he did well. Check out Dylan talking smack before 0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:16.560 it even starts. Good Lan, Okay, okay, fine, you were 0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:20.079 in second place last time. Dylan. Calm down, brother man, 0:13:20.160 --> 0:13:22.840 calm down. And if you remember, Danny, we had some 0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:27.160 controversy last time. Remember we thought that Zoe might have 0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:29.520 been coached by her dad, who was a Saints fan. 0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:32.160 Do you remember that one? I do, because she was 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:33.880 like picking the Eagles and he wanted her to pick 0:13:33.880 --> 0:13:39.599 the Saints. Well play the Zoe inshow, because we're acknowledging 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:43.560 the controversy. Go ahead, Danny. You've come close before. You 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:50.680 nearly defeated Dane. But if not for some questionable pass, 0:13:50.720 --> 0:14:00.320 interfeared as a Saints fan, and and other distractions. Other distraction, Okay, 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:04.960 other distractions. I find that interesting, Danny. What he means 0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:07.760 by other distractions is the fact that he cheated. You 0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:14.199 know what I mean, right right? Oh, and don't trust me, Danny, 0:14:14.240 --> 0:14:16.439 you haven't heard all these clips. It's coming back, brother. 0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:19.200 And then the other thing is, you know, it's funny 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:21.160 because these are just kids, right and by the way, 0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:22.680 we're gonna get into it on the next side of 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:26.680 the break. These are kids. We've got um as low 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:29.640 as four years old all the way up to an 0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:32.160 eleven year old. Okay, Danny, we got a couple of 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:33.560 four year olds, a couple of six year olds, a 0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:35.160 couple of eight year olds, and I got an eleven 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:38.840 year old involved this year. Uh my god, daughter Audrey, 0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:41.120 who has been a returner. But what I love is 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:44.240 that one of these kids, he's got a team that 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:47.880 he likes that ain't in the playoffs. But it didn't 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:51.640 stop him from wanting to pick him anyway. So then 0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:59.880 O'Brien George Kurtz, listen closely. Let's play Ozzie's intro I Cowboys, 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:06.560 Cowboys favorite game. Even though when I watched them, truly, 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:11.200 one time they watch we lost. Now the world will 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:14.320 now turn our attentions to the teams that are actually playing. 0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:17.960 That's right, let's turn our attention to the teams that 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:21.240 are actually playing. I'm sorry Ozzy okay, and I'm sorry 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:23.200 George Kurtz, and I'm sorry everybody out there, but the 0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:25.880 Cowboys didn't make it. It was the Philadelphia Eagles, the 0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:28.320 way I said, what was going to happen winning the 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:34.080 NFC East, all right, So um, you know, let's do uh, Danny, 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:37.880 let's start. Let's start with the Bills and the Titans. 0:15:37.920 --> 0:15:42.680 Danny okay, And and excuse me, right, the Bills in 0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:45.960 the Houston text. Excuse me, Buffalo and Houston. That's the 0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:49.280 first game. And here's the thing, all right, a lot 0:15:49.320 --> 0:15:52.880 of kids are picking this for a lot of different reasons. 0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:56.440 Well one of them, Danny, I find interesting because we 0:15:56.520 --> 0:15:59.720 have a little bit of revisionist history here. Listen to 0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:04.080 why Dylan wants the Bills in the first game of 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:07.160 the weekend. Play that one. Dylan for the Bills. The 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:10.600 Bills because when I was seeing Madden, it was a 0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:13.800 while ago, I saw that they won the Super Bowl. 0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:19.120 So pretty good. Interesting, So Danny he picked the Bills 0:16:19.720 --> 0:16:23.960 because in Madden he saw them and they won the 0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:26.960 super Bowl, so he's sure they're pretty good. Guess what, 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:29.200 Danny makes sense to me if the Bills has never 0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:33.440 won the Super Bowl but they didn't men maybe in Madden. Okay, 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:36.920 but remember this is not Madden. This is real life. 0:16:36.960 --> 0:16:41.160 So Danny, uh, Dylan is gonna take his Madden Bills 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:44.520 and use that as evidence for why to pick them. 0:16:44.520 --> 0:16:47.240 What do you think about that? Like I said, I 0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:49.760 think it makes sense. All right? Check out why Ozzy 0:16:50.280 --> 0:16:52.240 is picking the Bills. He's also riding with the Bills. 0:16:52.800 --> 0:16:55.400 Why is Ozzy picking the Bills? Go ahead, I picked 0:16:55.400 --> 0:16:59.040 the Buffalo thing, okay, And why do you pick the 0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:06.240 Buffalo Bills? Well? I think it's kind of a cool name. Okay, 0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:08.760 it's a cool name. You can't really hate on that, Danny. 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:11.360 It's a cool name. But check this out. So Audrey 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:14.640 is Dylan's brother sister, and Audrey's going the other way. 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:17.919 Audrey's picking the Texans. Let's hear why. I like her rationale. 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:23.560 So I'm gonna go with the Houston Texans because, um, 0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:27.440 I feel like Texas is like known for their football. 0:17:28.040 --> 0:17:30.600 That's pretty smart. They are known for their football Friday 0:17:30.680 --> 0:17:33.879 night lights high school football. Let's talk about Michaela. Michaela 0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:36.400 also riding with the Texans. Let's go to her before 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:40.800 the break, the Buffalo Bill versus the Houston All right, 0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:47.159 you got Michaela Texans. We're going to Houston. Yeah? Why 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:52.320 because then how it looks kind of like that makes sense. 0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:55.880 You're riding with the United States. I like that, that 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:58.120 makes sense. But when it really comes down to it, 0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:00.879 why are you gonna make any pick? Play Zoey on 0:18:00.920 --> 0:18:03.280 this pick? Why are you gonna make any pick? But 0:18:03.400 --> 0:18:10.880 why Zoe? But why why? Because I just think so, 0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:14.480 and that's why anybody makes picks. Right, Danny will make 0:18:14.520 --> 0:18:17.480 our picks for Buffalo and Houston, and we'll go through 0:18:17.520 --> 0:18:19.240 the other three games and see if any of these 0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:22.560 kids are ready to take down the spitting statistician.

All right, Danny, 0:19:57.800 --> 0:19:59.879 So we got through the first game speeds Verse the 0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:03.840 kids interesting perspective, Okay, Dylan thinks the Bills have won 0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:06.720 the Super Bowl. Azzy likes the name, Audrey just thinks 0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:10.440 everything is bigger in Texas. MICHAELA likes the stars and stripes, 0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:13.680 and he's always like, no, I just like them. Danny, 0:20:13.760 --> 0:20:18.000 Who do you like Bills versus Texans? This is tough 0:20:18.240 --> 0:20:22.199 because I used both quarterbacks both of my leagues, and 0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:26.679 I really leaned on both of the You don't down though, 0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:30.919 officially I'm gonna go Bills. All right. You're on the Bills, uh, Danny, 0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:34.000 I too, I'm on the Buffalo Bills in this game. 0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:37.200 Lock it up? Okay? Out of all these things, uh, 0:20:37.240 --> 0:20:39.040 in this game. You know what, I'm the most confident 0:20:39.080 --> 0:20:41.439 in the Buffalo Bills defense. That's the thing that has 0:20:41.440 --> 0:20:43.800 been the most consistent all year. As I've said on 0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:46.120 this network a lot of times, Philly was the only 0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:49.200 team all season to get above one points with them 0:20:49.240 --> 0:20:52.200 So the question for me is can the Bills get 0:20:52.200 --> 0:20:55.399 to twenty? I think they can. I'm also very worried 0:20:55.400 --> 0:20:59.200 about the Texans offensive line holding up against what I 0:20:59.240 --> 0:21:01.840 think is a good front seven for the Buffalo Bills. Now, 0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:05.160 Kendashawn Watson make plays, sure he can, I just don't 0:21:05.200 --> 0:21:08.800 know if he's gonna make enough to beat the Buffalo Bills. 0:21:08.960 --> 0:21:11.120 I'll take the road team, give me the Buffalo Bills. 0:21:11.160 --> 0:21:15.040 We are in agreement. Danny. The next game Titans of 0:21:15.119 --> 0:21:19.040 US Patriots. Now, Danny, everybody is on these Titans. Everybody 0:21:19.040 --> 0:21:21.920 thinks it's the fall of Rome, right, and I listen. 0:21:22.000 --> 0:21:23.400 I've been saying, I don't think the Pats will get 0:21:23.400 --> 0:21:25.240 through a gauntlet of three games if they're in the 0:21:25.280 --> 0:21:27.480 wild card. I said, I don't think they'll have they'll 0:21:27.840 --> 0:21:30.080 beat say, Kansas City on the road, Baltimore on the road, 0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:33.960 and I still don't. My question is, is this weekend 0:21:34.600 --> 0:21:38.280 the one time at home where they still run up, block, punt, 0:21:38.359 --> 0:21:40.520 a trick play because that's what they're resorting to, and 0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:42.760 is that enough to take out the Titans. It's gonna 0:21:42.800 --> 0:21:46.280 be very interesting. Let's see what Audrey has to say. 0:21:46.320 --> 0:21:49.440 How is Audrey picking this game. I'm gonna go with 0:21:49.600 --> 0:21:56.159 the Patriots. Their record is better. Okay, that's valid, But 0:21:56.280 --> 0:21:58.280 he's chalk, you know what I'm saying. That's just like 0:21:58.280 --> 0:22:00.080 the public. They're all going with New England. You know 0:22:00.080 --> 0:22:02.359
