1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL Podcast. We'll apply for the Jets.

2
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: G Chop. Welcome back to another edition of the Around

3
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,720
Speaker 1: the NFL Podcast. My name is Dan Hansa's name, joined

4
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: by a room finally filled with heroes, Mark Sessler, Chris Westling,

5
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 1: and Greg Rosenthal. What up, boys? What's up? Happy Sunday?

6
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 1: Another full Sunday. Good to have you Backmark. You know

7
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: people were asking people on Twitter, were asking the streets

8
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 1: the show wasn't the same but the same. I didn't

9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:34,959
Speaker 1: get any tweets about the show not being a lot

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 1: of a lot of excitement. I just made. I didn't

11
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: hear a peep from anyone. I didn't. I was gone

12
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: for about three days. It didn't seem like that long

13
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 1: of a stress. Now. There was a listener though, that

14
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: um that tweeted at me that we referenced you, and

15
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 1: it was accounted ten times in the last show. So

16
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,959
Speaker 1: obviously there was a missing peace in our in our

17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: hearts while you were out in your desert desert adventure?

18
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: Did you learn anything in the desert? Not about the show.

19
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: I didn't listen. I am assuming it was listened to

20
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: the show, but I'm saying, did you learn anything about

21
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: your life in the desert. Well, of course, I think

22
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: you always do when you travel out into the east,

23
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: and I was disappointed to hear that you didn't. You

24
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: didn't meet a man like a Native American somewhere in

25
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: the in the in the sands, or smoke any peyote,

26
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: nothing like wild went. It was largely I mean, you know,

27
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: to keep it short, I was with my parents, which

28
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: was wonderful, and I was with my two toddler children,

29
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: So there wasn't a lot of pyote and Indian discoveries.

30
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: And that'll come over the summer perhaps most likely. All Right,

31
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: so this is week nine, the Week nine recap show

32
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: on Sunday. We uh, we have a lot of games

33
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: to get to, not as many as usual because we

34
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: have some some teams on buys this week, which we

35
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: all get excited about because that means less games, which

36
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: means more games we can really dig in on on

37
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: the Sunday night show, Right, Mark, let's do it. Yeah,

38
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: So why don't we start. Let's get right into the

39
00:01:58,640 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: game of the day. We all know what the game

40
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: him of the day is. It is Manning Brady sixteen. However,

41
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: this was not the game. Maybe we were hoping for

42
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: a shootout that went down to the wire. This is

43
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: a one sided affair. Tom Brady through four touchdowns leading

44
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: the Patriots to a dominant to twenty one win in Foxborough.

45
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: The Patriots have won five straight and they hit their

46
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: by at seven and two. West. You wrote this game

47
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: up on NFL dot com Slash around the NFL. It's

48
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, the league MVP the season midway point. I

49
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 1: gotta put him in the discussion, right, This really happened

50
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: very quickly. But they are averaging forty points a game

51
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: since the blowout in Kansas City, and Brady has eighteen

52
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,119
Speaker 1: touchdowns in one interception over that span. He's been lights out.

53
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: Maybe it's a lesson. We shouldn't recap the m v

54
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: P race every week after like Week six, Like I

55
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: remember a Chargers fans Saint Rivers really has to hold

56
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 1: serve this week, you know, to keep his lead in

57
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: the m v period. It's a little earlier. They're forgetting

58
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: about the Philip Rivers m v P March that I

59
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: referenced the out a month ago. It's so, I mean,

60
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: there's there's no doubt that Tom Brady outplayed Peyton Manning

61
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: uh in New England today and and Peyton Manning even

62
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: said it himself, he said he wasn't very good in

63
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,639
Speaker 1: this game. But this wasn't a game that you put

64
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: entirely on the quarterback, right, No, No, Manning. I thought

65
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: he had some trouble with the wind his ball. The

66
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: difference in arm strength between Brady and Manning I was startling.

67
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: And um Manning still had four and thirty nine yards.

68
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: But the defense, I mean, we we thought the difference

69
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: in this game would be Denver having a much better

70
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: defense than than the Patriots. But it didn't turn out

71
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: that way to happen, though, because Denver's secondary especially has

72
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: looked pretty rugged of late, shutting down whatever comes at them.

73
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: And then these two co quarterbacks combined for a hundred

74
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: and ten passes. It's the most in NFL history in

75
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: a non overtime game. And it comes down to neither

76
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: team could run the ball at all, and you have

77
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: two coaches and two quarterbacks that don't bother to run

78
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: if it's not working at all. That the Broncos started

79
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: the game trying to run the ball, they realized it

80
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna happen, and they smartly kept passing. They were

81
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: moving the ball. It was just the difference was on

82
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: third downs and big plays. Tom Brady was getting away

83
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: from defenders and the Patriots actually did a good job

84
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 1: getting pressure on Peyton Manning up the middle. Brady was

85
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: really good with his pocket movement and was accurate. Like

86
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 1: Greg said, on third downs, he put the ball in

87
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: some tight windows when he had to. Yeah, I didn't

88
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: think Manning played terribly either. If Wes Welker doesn't drop

89
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: a pass while they're driving to start the second half,

90
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: it goes up in the air and the Patriots intercept it,

91
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: return it and then it's a route. The Broncos are

92
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: right in that game. They were moving the ball very

93
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 1: well to start the second half. And Gronk, I mean,

94
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: this guy's it's dominant. E sixteen yards in his last

95
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 1: five games, the most he's ever had in any five

96
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: games stretching his career. It's funny because last year when

97
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: New England got hot, it's exactly for the same reason.

98
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 1: I feel like we had the same about maybe eleven

99
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: months ago. And then he heard his knee and it

100
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: was he was out of the picture. The catch that

101
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: that ground made with his left hand falling backwards. I mean,

102
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: que that tape up people back there. I'm sure they are.

103
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 1: They We do a great job putting videos together. If

104
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: you haven't seen it, if you're listening to us on

105
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: our podcast, he is playing at another level right now.

106
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: And to me, he's just the difference. I mean, that's

107
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: the main difference. And Brady said it after the game.

108
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: We figured out what we do well, and no team

109
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: and no coach I think is better at figuring out

110
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 1: what the team does well and hiding weaknesses like the Patriots,

111
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: and they've done that turnaround in the middle of the season. Wes,

112
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 1: you left Tom Brady off your top ten arms list

113
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: a few back. Is he getting on the list now? Yeah,

114
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: he's there. I gave you great for it at the

115
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: time that the ball that was the ball the fell

116
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: dropped in the end zone look like a JR. Richard fastball. Wait,

117
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: does anybody know j R. Richards? Yeah? He was. He

118
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: a middle reliever. He was six six eight starting pitcher

119
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 1: for the Astros in the late seventies when they hit

120
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 1: Nolan Ryan went over three strikeouts a few times. I

121
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: thought he was a nasty boy. Was not the center

122
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: of my late seventies focus. You have at late seven

123
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: for the center of your late All right, we move

124
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 1: on Colin. Colin Kaepernick fumbled at the goal line with

125
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: less than ten seconds to play, providing a shocking end

126
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: to a thirteen ten win for the Rams over the

127
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: forty Niners. Real uh studying upset here. San Francisco falls

128
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: to four and four and is on the outside looking

129
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: in in the NFC playoff picture. Gentlemen, I ask you,

130
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: is it time to start recalibrating expectations for this Niners team?

131
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: I guess it is what happened two years ago? They

132
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: had the best offensive line in the NFL, and now

133
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: Kaepernick has been sacked twelve times in his last six quarters.

134
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: I think. Yeah. The Rams entered this game with six

135
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: sacks all season, and they had six in the first

136
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: half alone. They finished with eight, including two from Robert Quinn.

137
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 1: So that I mean they're passed rush. You knew that

138
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: was gonna come on eventually, but for them to be

139
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: this dominant against the Niners team that you know, the

140
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: real and I picked the Niners going into this game

141
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: was I thought they were, you know, about to hit

142
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: that stride that they seem to do every year, like

143
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: the Patriots are doing now, but maybe that gear isn't

144
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: in them this year. I don't know. I mean they

145
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: still have players to come back from injury, especially on defense.

146
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: One quick thing about the Rams. You know, people easily

147
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: dismissed St. Louis, and for good reason because they've been

148
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: so inconsistent, but not inside that division. I think that

149
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 1: the your peak Carroll's and Jim Harbaugh. Then the forty

150
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: Niners were knocked around by the St. Louis Rams two

151
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: seasons ago with a tie and a loss. They beat

152
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: Seattle a couple of weeks ago, and they go and

153
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: beat the forty Niners again, but they can't beat anyone

154
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: outside of the West Weird team. Give me a Austin

155
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: Davis update, Dan, I think signs are pointing to him

156
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: not being the answer for them. It's it's it's amazing

157
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: they won this game. If you would have told me

158
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: that Austin Davis would throw for a hundred and five

159
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: yards two interceptions, that's a forty four point six passer

160
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: rating and a positivity Gabbard's own yards per attempt average

161
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: at four point four, and tell me that the Niners

162
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: would get beat by the Rams, I'd be shocked. He

163
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: you know, he seems he seems to be very conservative.

164
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: He doesn't push the ball down field. That's the opposite

165
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: of how he was in his first few starts. Yea,

166
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: if someone went up to you and told you all

167
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: that before the game, wouldn't you really say, like, Wow,

168
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: that's a really weirdly specific prediction for the day. Why

169
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: are you telling He's like, wait, do you know something?

170
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 1: Are you holding out on me? But yeah, so I

171
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: would imagine that the less need unless something happens special

172
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: with Austin Davis, they're gonna be looking for a quarterback

173
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: in the first round of just matters where they fall

174
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: on that first und because they're not a bad team

175
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: like we're saying, they're beating team. They're beating the Seahawks,

176
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: they're beating the Niners. But it's the only thing that

177
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: makes it a little tough to figure out is how

178
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: good are these teams are actually beating. It's weird because

179
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: in Seattle there was dissension because inside the locker room,

180
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: players wanted to see the Seahawks get back to their

181
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 1: run first philosophy. I'm just asking here, looking at the numbers,

182
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: score forty nine yards. The team as a whole three

183
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: point eight rushing the ball. They're not the same team

184
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:00,679
Speaker 1: on the ground that they've been in the past. No,

185
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: I mean this was not a good performance then by them.

186
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: And I want to get back to that again the

187
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: last player, because it was crazy they this game seemed

188
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: to be over. There was back to back penalties on

189
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: the rams that allowed the Niners to get from midfield

190
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: to the goal line, and they took it down to

191
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: nine seconds left. Kaepernick didn't get a clean snap. Looks

192
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: like he recovered the ball as he went into the

193
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: huddle and then it got knocked out again. And because

194
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: it was such a mess in the scrum that they

195
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: couldn't really get a good angle whether the call was right,

196
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: so they just stuck with a call. And and what's

197
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: crazy now? Is there four and four? And if they

198
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 1: missed the playoffs this year, this is the game that

199
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: will stick with them. I know Jim Harbow is not

200
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: gonna sleep tonight, but he might lose a lot of

201
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: sleep all winter thinking about how this game ended. Well.

202
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: Kaepernick says he had the ball over the goal line,

203
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: that he knows it that because he was there. What

204
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: you can't really trust that, But if his throw the

205
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: play before was better to crabtreet they win the game. Yeah,

206
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: Crabtree had to dive for out of the end zone.

207
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: And that's kind of been Kaepernick story this year. Some

208
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: great plays, but not really that accurate. Contract looks great

209
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: that the Niners signed. Now, I mean, you would not

210
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,839
Speaker 1: have wanted to give him all that money because he's

211
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: not or maybe this contract, even in its current form,

212
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: is too generous to what he's showing. But what are

213
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: they gonna do. They're not gonna get rid of I

214
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 1: just think they're lucky they didn't give him a massive,

215
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: guaranteed contract. What you think it's ugly? Now they got

216
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,680
Speaker 1: to go to New Orleans next week. That's an interesting

217
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: game in the NFC. If you don't go and in

218
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 1: that Superdome winning streak, you're at four and five in

219
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: a conference that I think it's gonna take ten orally

220
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: at least ten wins and maybe eleven wins to get

221
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: into the playoffs. Tony Tony Romo's absence was felt on

222
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 1: Sunday in Arlington, where Brandon Weedon struggled to move mark. Seriously,

223
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: Brandon Weedn't struggled to move the ball against a stout

224
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: Cardinals defense. The Cardinals beat the Cowboys, seen improving the

225
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: record to an NFL best seven and one. Greg, the

226
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 1: Cardinals had some fun against the NFC East this year. Four. No,

227
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: they're lucky they're not still in the NFC. So remember

228
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: back then when they were in the NFC. Card Yeah,

229
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: that Arizona was there for a little bit and then

230
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: they then they moved him out with Max. Yeah, they've

231
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: wiped the floor with this division. This game shouldn't have

232
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: been as close as the final score, which was seven,

233
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: but it was a It was a close game entering

234
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. Carson Palmer really didn't have that good

235
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: a game and the only time the Cowboys scored early

236
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: was off a pick six from Carson Palmer. But I

237
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: give the Cardinals defense a lot of credit. People will

238
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: blame it all on Weed and but they stuffed the

239
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: running game pretty nicely. Klais Campbell, Dan Williams and the

240
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: Cardinals defensive line looked terrific. Brandon Weed and failed as

241
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: the Browns quarterback because he didn't have any touch on

242
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: his passes, blacked pocket presence, and really didn't see the field.

243
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: Bill is that pretty much what they tried to limit

244
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: his exposure to the game in the first half. Like

245
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 1: he he really wasn't that big a factor. In the

246
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 1: first half of the game. He made a couple of

247
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: dump off passes, didn't do anything too bad, didn't have

248
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: too many throws. The second they fell behind and had

249
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: to make a couple of throws, and he was off

250
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: target with his receivers who thought they were going to

251
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: go one way and weed ands throw another. I mean,

252
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: he didn't look good, but the defense didn't look good either.

253
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: If not for you know, ten bad throws by Palmer

254
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: and five drop passes from Arizona, I think they could

255
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: have put up thirty. You wrote also that their their line,

256
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: which has been so good, was was also not blocking

257
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: very well. Was that just because were they stacking the

258
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: box to stop the run? I mean that that I'm

259
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: sure that was part of it. But you know, they

260
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: had a fourth and one in the fourth quarter where

261
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,839
Speaker 1: you need a yard to keep the game going. They're

262
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: only down by four at that time. It was a

263
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: close game. The whole game, they couldn't pick up a

264
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: yard and Murray had a ten yard round a seventeen

265
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: yard run early, but for the most part he was

266
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: just getting one two yards and Calais Campbell returning and

267
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: you know who also looks good, Honey Badger. Honey Badger

268
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: is back and he makes a big difference. They're not

269
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 1: you know, they lost a lot of people, but the

270
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 1: secondary is still very good. Bruce arians going to run

271
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,719
Speaker 1: away with Coach of the Year at this This was

272
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: a defense that was scrambling to fill up races in

273
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: the beginning of the year. As you said, Honey Badger

274
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: was not healthy. Now that this the defense is humming

275
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 1: and you have an offense that's getting the job done.

276
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 1: This is and Ellington has been a great He's really

277
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: uh stepped up his game this year. This whole team

278
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: is starting to coal coal lesson a nice way. The

279
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: others said the Cowboys look like they're in trouble. Their

280
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: best three defensive players this year on really kind of

281
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: a no name defense have been Tyrone Crawford, Rolando McLean

282
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 1: and Justin Durant. Durant was lost for the season last week,

283
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: didn't McLean and McClean and Crawford went down late in

284
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: the game. Seems like mcclean's injuries not serious, but Crawford's

285
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: could be from the sound of it, and that would

286
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 1: be a huge loss for them, and they just get

287
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: to Marcus Lawrence back this week and he played pretty well. Actually,

288
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 1: Henry Melton is playing better, but it's not it's not

289
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 1: a good defense. So Dallas has been beaten in six

290
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: days by Cole McCoy and Britton weedon the old Browns quarterback.

291
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: I still don't think this team is making the playoffs.

292
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: I mean, you would think they're gonna beat Jacksonville this

293
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: week in London. If Romo returns Jerry Jones into Katidie,

294
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: expect Tony Romo to play next week. But oh, Tony

295
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: Romo doesn't have a choice. By the way, Tony Romo,

296
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 1: this was Jared's year. It was all in his head.

297
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 1: It was all coming together that this was their big

298
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: Super Bowl run that no one saw coming. He's not

299
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 1: gonna let this thing slip away. If they have the

300
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: wheel Romo onto the field, they're gonna do it guaranteed.

301
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: And give some We should give some left to Patrick

302
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: Peterson who has had a rough year, but he's shut

303
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: down Dez Bryant out of this box score until the

304
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: last two minutes in a garbage time drive. Did Patrick

305
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: Peterson shut him down? Or did we I give it

306
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: credit to Peterson because they tried to throw to there

307
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 1: was eight targets to him and he was all over him.

308
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: The the officials kind of led him play. It was

309
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: very physical, but Dez Bryant was very frustrated. Marshawn Lynch

310
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: led the way with a hundred and forty three yards

311
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: and two touchdowns on the ground, and the Seahawks beat

312
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders thirty to twenty four. At the clink,

313
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 1: the Raiders are now oh and eight. I guess that's

314
00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: owing four under Tony Sperranto. Barbie Moore balls and Mark

315
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: was this a game that was as competitive as the

316
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: final score indicates. Not quite as competitive as the final score.

317
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: But I want the Sperranto, you know, love or hat

318
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 1: um is he's gotten the Raiders to bet why. I

319
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: know you do. And that's why I mentioned that it's

320
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: not a great look for Denis Allen because they've been

321
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: much more competitive under Sperranto. And I think that they,

322
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: you know, they're kind of playing with it. We got

323
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: nothing to lose attitude. They went right at Seattle. Seattle's

324
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: banged up big time on defense and nearly ran away

325
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: with this game very early because of some some Derek

326
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: Carr interceptions, want to pick six by Bruce Servant. But

327
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: then from there it was Seattle couldn't really will its

328
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: way to a blow out, which I think they would

329
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: have last year. I mean, Marshawn Lynch had a nice game,

330
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: sixties something yards on the ground, another sixty through the air,

331
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: But the passing attack in Seattle, I think they're really

332
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: struggling because they didn't have Russell Okung in there, and

333
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: they didn't have their center, and and Russell Wilson was

334
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: running for his life all game. Seems like he's back

335
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: in a funk like he was last December. Well, you know,

336
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: it's like we've already taught opped about in in Dallas.

337
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: If suddenly you're getting chased around, or if in any

338
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: of these games, where a guy that we're used to

339
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: seeing being a fishing Kaepernick, if you're getting sacked eight

340
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: times a game, if you're gonna get rushed all over

341
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: the field and they're taking away some of your deep

342
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: looks and you don't really have a receiver on that

343
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: offense that you can rely on for big big By

344
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 1: the way, you traded Percy Harvin, who not for nothing,

345
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: had nine for a hundred and thirty for the Jets

346
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: on Sunday. I mean, that was a major guy that

347
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: I know they weren't utilizing them correctly, but that doesn't

348
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: mean that they were never going to figure it out.

349
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: Once you take him out of the picture, he's gone

350
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 1: entirely obviously. I mean, I wouldn't be I wouldn't be

351
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: overly worried about Seattle until we get they get their

352
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: guys back and we kind of see what they are.

353
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 1: But they really did not look no. But I mean

354
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: I'd like to see them get their full lineback. That'll help.

355
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 1: The offensive line was terrible last year and people forget

356
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: it was one of the worst offensive lines pass protecting

357
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: in the league, and they don't seem any better West

358
00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: by the way, since you were on the verge of

359
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: eating yourself up with the Raiders, they have now lost

360
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 1: fourteen straight since that moment. This is their worst start

361
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 1: since nineteen sixty two. Do you have anything to do

362
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: with us? Sure? Put a hex on him? What's going on? Guys?

363
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: Really quick? Just real quick question. So one Mr Dave

364
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 1: damage like said him last week on his new show

365
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: by the Way on NFL Now, said that the Seahawks

366
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: will not be making It's on d D D F

367
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 1: E TV. It's a thirty minute show, well like a

368
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: two minutes on it. Yeah, check it out on the

369
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:33,800

371
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,919

372
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: in your life t D. I imagine. But the good

373
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: of fans of NFL media content don't feel the same.

374
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: Muay you know. Yeah, but he says the Seahawks will

375
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: not be making the playoffs. I'm actually gonna do this

376
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 1: on behalf of check. Anyone willing to take a sandwich

377
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: bet on that? Well, we don't bet here first of

378
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 1: all sandwich purposes. I'm yeah, I'm all over that. Really,

379
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: they're out if they're season ended today. But the caboy

380
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 1: they will, Yes, I think I'll take you up on that.

381
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: I will. He didn't even know about this. Yeah, I'm

382
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: taking the Seahawks to make it. Sign me up, all

383
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 1: four of us. He's gonna be really mad at you now.

384
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: You basically just took twenty dollars out of his wall.

385
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 1: Signed Patcher up and Connor while you're at it. He's

386
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: a charitable fella, my whole family back in New York,

387
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 1: just like forty sandwiches. I don't know. I just I

388
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: find it hard to believe that the Seahawks will. I

389
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: don't know anymore if they're gonna get back to the

390
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, which I know a lot of people thought

391
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: could happen, but it'd be to me. I'd be stunned

392
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 1: if they just fall off completely and go nine to

393
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: seven or eight and eight. I just one reason I

394
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 1: would say. They still have two games against the forty Niners,

395
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: two against Arizona, and one against St. Louis. I look

396
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: at their season, it is almost just beginning. It's been

397
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: a little bit rough, but they can decide what happens

398
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 1: from here now. A J. Green made a healthy return

399
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: after a three week absent and finished with three catches

400
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: for and a touchdown. The Bengals stayed at the top

401
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: in the ANFC North with a thirty three twenty three

402
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,439
Speaker 1: win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. This is a game that

403
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: appeared to be coming down to the final possession until

404
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 1: Blake Bordles through a killer interception to end things. Uh.

405
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: The Bengals, gentlemen, the Bengals, they went, they went again today.

406
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 1: Not very impressive, but they're taking care of business. And

407
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 1: here we are again. They are heading as we reached

408
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 1: November there in first place in their division, so they're

409
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: moving along. What's up with Jeremy Hill carries a hundred

410
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: and fifty four yards? Yeah, he he sealed the game essentially.

411
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 1: They the Jaguars were coming back after a bad Dalton turnover,

412
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: got got within his score and then the Bengals got

413
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: the ball back and Hill busted one sixty yards down

414
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: the sideline for a touchdown that basically gave them the

415
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 1: breathing room they needed. So you know, with filling in

416
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 1: for Joe Bernard, that is a that's a big pick

417
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: me up, and that's a nice one two punch they have.

418
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: How about my boy Mohammed Sanu, how did he look?

419
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: He had another touchdown and you know, he he looked

420
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,160
Speaker 1: like he was still the number one guy. I think

421
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: Green is being worked back into the mix. But when

422
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: you tall, we've talked about this, Green and SNeW, both

423
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 1: of them together. He had another he had He just

424
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 1: has great catches every week too. It's not just that

425
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: he's compiling numbers. He's making great kind of over the

426
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 1: shoulder catches, has great hands, has great footwork. He's just

427
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:25,439
Speaker 1: he's just fun to watch. Now. On the other side,

428
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 1: Greg and I have been kind of worried about Blake boardles.

429
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 1: He looked like he's regressed. How did he do today? Well,

430
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: he was terrible in the first half, or I should

431
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 1: say very quiet in the first half. They didn't do

432
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 1: much at all. Uh. He came on in the second

433
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 1: half was playing really well. Um actually finished with two touchdowns,

434
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 1: his best passer rating of his career. But he had

435
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: some questionable decisions. He there were two interceptions that should

436
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: have been interceptions that were dropped, and then he threw

437
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: on a bad, ugly pick. When you watch the game

438
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: on game rewind, you'll you'll be very upset when Blake

439
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: for the decision he made. He threw it into a crowd,

440
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 1: had no chance of being completed, and that really is

441
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: what costs him the game. But I would say on balance,

442
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: this was a step up from the last couple of weeks.

443
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: And you and like we've been saying all season, there's

444
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,120
Speaker 1: definitely something there with this guy. It's just a matter

445
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: of can he get through the season and not pick

446
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: up bad habits and or get hurt. I think it's

447
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: unusual to see a guy plateau if he's a rookie

448
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 1: quarterback at this time of the year. It's a long

449
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 1: season and you're you know, you're right, that's where you are.

450
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,479
Speaker 1: But I I blamed it for a long while on

451
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 1: their inability to run, and yet Denard Robinson last couple

452
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,719
Speaker 1: of weeks, three weeks now in a row. Wow, and

453
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: Greg you tweeted it? Uh, what did you tweet? It's

454
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: just one of the best stories right now. I love

455
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 1: watching this guy run. I mean red. He reminds me

456
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: a little bit of Jamal Charles, just like the way

457
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 1: he can throw to slow down and then just explode

458
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: in the middle of his run. He looks like a

459
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: legit running back. Hearns looks good. I mean, they have

460
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,199
Speaker 1: a nice little offense. Allen Robinson looks good. They just

461
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 1: need to invest in a couple of draft picks in

462
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: their offensive line, hopefully early draft picks. Well, yeah, Luke

463
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 1: Joco was one. It's not really I don't know if

464
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 1: that's the guy they took in a third round. Linden

465
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: Er at guard has been great, so that that helps.

466
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez came on for an injured Nick Foles and

467
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 1: helped leave the Philadelphia Eagles to a win over the

468
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: Houston Texans. Nick Foles, it's a clavical injury. It could

469
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: be serious. He could be missing serious time. Damiko Ryan's

470
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: carted off the field with a torn achilles tend in

471
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 1: the team fears, Greg, I ask you, how much of

472
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 1: a step down is this Mark Sande's from the two

473
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: thousand fourteen version of Nick Foles. We have to see

474
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 1: Sante's in this offense because the preseason, as we're seeing

475
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: with Boardles and so many others, is not transferable to

476
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: the regular season at all. So we need to see

477
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 1: Sanchez in this offense. You know, it looks like he

478
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,479
Speaker 1: had a solid, you know, start today. I don't think

479
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a step down I personally, but I

480
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,400
Speaker 1: kind of want to see it against real, live competition first.

481
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: I don't really take much out of him lighting up

482
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: the pre season. I agree with you totally. I I

483
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: don't think it's necessarily a step down, and you can't

484
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 1: really say that the preseason carries over. But I thought

485
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: Mark Sanchez was a little bit unfairly maligned in New York.

486
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: He's not a terrible course, he lost his confidence in

487
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,719
Speaker 1: near the end before he had a totally injury, and

488
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: that's really what did him in. He we all know

489
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 1: it's been talked about forever that he had moments early

490
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 1: in his career. So he there is something there with

491
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: him as well. And I think you guys are right.

492
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 1: And I thought on Twitter as as soon as he

493
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: came in the game, there were thousands of bad jokes saying, oh,

494
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: the Eagles are done, the Eagles are screwed. But don't

495
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: don't assume that that he was gonna thousands of bad

496
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: jokes on Twitter by sports writers surely and fans and fans,

497
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: and a good timing for Sanchez too, because obviously falls

498
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 1: very up and down this whole season and a little

499
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: bit enigmatic. But they Philadelphia finally running the ball. Well,

500
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: you know, they didn't have an offensive line for half

501
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: the season. What is it a hundred and ninety yards today?

502
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 1: Four point eight yards per rush? Sanchez can do fine

503
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:02,679
Speaker 1: in that. I think that, you know, he was one

504
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 1: of the guys that said, I don't he was very

505
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 1: down during the summer when they talked about him maybe

506
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,160
Speaker 1: being traded out of there. I think he realized he's

507
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: with a good coaching staff on an offense that can

508
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 1: use his skill as well, and they can run the ball.

509
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: It's not a bad son. The quarterback proof offense. Falls

510
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: has been terrible this year, and they're like a top

511
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,879
Speaker 1: five team in in offense and they're in first place

512
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: now with Falls and Sanchez and and to answer that,

513
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 1: a couple of picks today too, and they're six and two.

514
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 1: They're ahead of the Cowboys. Now. It's if you can't

515
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: succeed in this offense as a quarterback, you're not gonna

516
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: succeed anywhere. It was a costly win though, Damiko Ryan's.

517
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 1: You go from Demika Ryan's to Casey Matthews. That's that's

518
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: quite a come down. One note in macklin five yards

519
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: over two games, the most by any Eagles receiver since

520
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty five, and back to back. I was gonna

521
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: say that Adrian Peterson in two thousand twelve is the

522
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: all time leader in best a c L recovery. Ever,

523
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 1: Macklin just moved into the top five. I think he's

524
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: like on pace for fifteen hundred yards season with fifteen touchdowns.

525
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he came back and he was immediately his

526
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: old self, and he we always knew. That's why when

527
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: he hurt his knee, what a perfect fit he was

528
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: in that offense, because you know, that was why it

529
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: was such a shame he came back in and he

530
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: showed it this year. It's insane. I mean, a c

531
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: L injuries are now just like bumping your shin on

532
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: the way to the You know, if Mackman's number five,

533
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 1: Miller's number two. But so many people come back from

534
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: a c L s now and they're better, They're more explosive.

535
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 1: What are you saying. I'm just saying. I will say

536
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 1: all the listeners that hate Greg right now that have

537
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 1: gone through that surgery and the grueling rehabit entails, you know,

538
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: achievement to get back. I hear what you're saying. I

539
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 1: guess I'm saying. Once these highly trained athletes with all

540
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 1: the staffs behind them and everything else, get back on

541
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 1: the field, it's like it didn't make any difference. Did uh?

542
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 1: Did the Eagles play against another team today? The Houston Texans.

543
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 1: I think they're they're the team in the a f

544
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 1: C that was kind of in the playoff race but

545
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,719
Speaker 1: not really. And now that it's gonna take like eleven

546
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 1: wins forget about it. Quarterback switch time maybe there? Yeah,

547
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 1: I would think so, aren't the hidden into a by Yeah,

548
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 1: let's get let's see some Ryan Mount Brian Hoyer through

549
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: a thirty four yard touchdown pass two Taylor Gabriel with

550
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 1: eight fifty nine to play, helping the Cleveland Browns UH

551
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: to win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Mark.

552
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 1: The Browns are five and three at the midpoint of

553
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 1: the season, got a huge division matchup coming up Thursday

554
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: against the Bengals. I would like you to rank your

555
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 1: confidence level one to ten on what the Cleveland Browns

556
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 1: beating the Bengals in general, beating the Bengals four in general? Five? Okay,

557
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 1: So that I don't mean, and what you're saying bout

558
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: that is you're not buying them as a playoff contender

559
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,239
Speaker 1: right now. I think they're on the fringe in an

560
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 1: an FC where there's like fourteen teams that are five

561
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: and three right now? Are there? Where are we at

562
00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: that there are eight teams I think that are five

563
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 1: and read roughly in that tell us about this game?

564
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: Did they? I know they didn't look very good last

565
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: week in their win UH. This week did they play better? Well,

566
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: you know, I mean number one, this is this is

567
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: a kind of game that they've lost seventy five times

568
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 1: over the last eight seasons, so they're winning these games

569
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 1: this year. That it was one of the uglier wins

570
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 1: I've seen in a long time from any team. I mean,

571
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: they really didn't play very well, and not to last

572
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 1: week with the Browns. It's the same. It's the same

573
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,239
Speaker 1: exact thing, because I think they were forged Onna. We're

574
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: gonna run the ball down your throat all day long

575
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 1: and they can't do it right now, and so you know,

576
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 1: it's the same in the passing game is exposed to

577
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 1: some degree. Yet they made enough plays down the stretch

578
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,360
Speaker 1: against the league's worst defense in yardige allowed what's a win?

579
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: What's the name of Alex max replacement at center? Nick

580
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 1: McDonald and Gerald McCoy put a clown suit on him

581
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,439
Speaker 1: to be yeah, And I mean Gerald McCoy is, you know,

582
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: beside J. J. Watt one of the most disruptive forces obviously,

583
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 1: and heat this Nick McDonald's I came off the practice squad,

584
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: I went and watched what he did last week against

585
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: the Raiders, and he is learning on the job, and

586
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: he's continuing to learn. I think you might have well,

587
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 1: you might be doing that again next summer as well.

588
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,400
Speaker 1: But what did well, No, I'm not sure if you're

589
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: looking for, you know, uh little peek behind the curtain.

590
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: Midway through this game, Hoyer had been struggling. I was

591
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 1: seeing some tweets and Mark revealed to us that he

592
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: had even tried to get ahead of the story a

593
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: little bit had worked up a Brian Hoyer benched in

594
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 1: favor of Johnny Manzel post. So he must have not

595
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: been playing to it felt very much. Well, we've heard

596
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: whispers for weeks that had things not gone right in

597
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: the first half, and this is a game they had

598
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: to win or Thursday night becomes irrelevant for them almost

599
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 1: that maybe they make the switch. And it was the

600
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,479
Speaker 1: kind of game where Hoyer was getting harassed and he

601
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,719
Speaker 1: was not escaping pressure the way that I think they

602
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 1: would assume Manzel might give them, extend the play and

603
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 1: give them some life on the ground. Give him this

604
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: though he came back through for three hundred yards. He's

605
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 1: on pace to throw for four thousand and twenty touchdowns.

606
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: Now he should have about twenty interceptions too, But these

607
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 1: defenders keep dropping him. I mean, he had a bad

608
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 1: pick today. He had you know, it's it's a total

609
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 1: mix and match group of receivers. They don't have Jordan Cameron,

610
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 1: they don't have Josh Gordon, they don't have Alex Mack,

611
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: Taylor Gabriel. Well, they have these. The Andrew Hawkins is

612
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: on pace. He's five ft seven. No player under five

613
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: ft eight has caught as many yardage and passes him

614
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 1: since uh Little Train James. So, I mean they're getting

615
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 1: a lot from guys that we rode off before the year,

616
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 1: and so we'll see what happens. I'm not writing them off.

617
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the Bucks. Mike Evans box score looks great.

618
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: How did he look? He really was. You know, he's

619
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 1: the kind of guy that's been washed out behind the

620
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins and Calvin Benjamin hype. He's not as flashy

621
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 1: as Watkins, but he's big and he absolutely dominated buster

622
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 1: screen and he they kept trying to put small corners

623
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 1: up against him, and he was open over number one

624
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: received for now over Vincent Jacks. I think he has

625
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 1: been the last two weeks. He looked great last week too.

626
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I like what I see out of Mike Evans.

627
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: I think Jackson looks like he's not long for Tampa

628
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: and Evans is going to be then. Now I wonder

629
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 1: if they found start after you know, I think they

630
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: may go back to McCown at something. Here's the credit

631
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: to the Browns. We talked about it. Out of that

632
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 1: bye week and week four, they had just a tomato

633
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: can schedule for five straight weeks. They needed to take

634
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: care of business. And with the exception of that slip

635
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: up at Jacksonville, they won four out of five, So

636
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: they got themselves in good position going to the second half,

637
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: coming up at Since, home to Houston, at Atlanta, at Buffalo,

638
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: home to the Colts, and then home to Sinse. So

639
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: that's not a brutal stretch either. There's some winnable games there.

640
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: But they got to play better than they have the

641
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: last two weeks, I think. So. I mean, that's why

642
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: I give them a five as a playoff contender. I

643
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: think it's a positive step and we'll see where. Give

644
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: give Isaiah Crow out of the ball. I mean West

645
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: jumping around ten Dentate ten carries for three. It beent

646
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 1: Tate looks terrible. I don't know what's going on with

647
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 1: can make anyone miss. The Minnesota Vikings spoiled Robert Griffin,

648
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: the third's returned to the lineup, getting three touchdowns from

649
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 1: Matt Aciata, including the go ahead score with less than

650
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 1: six minutes to play to secure win over the Redskins. Uh.

651
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 1: To talk about this game, we have a man on

652
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: the phone. Every time he's not working and putting together

653
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: content for around the NFL, he's getting yoked. He's at

654
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: the gym. He's working at that aggression that he's admitted

655
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: on the show that it builds up within him sometimes

656
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: and sometimes manifest itself physically upon people outside. I mean,

657
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,719
Speaker 1: there's a reason he works remotely from us. He is

658
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,959
Speaker 1: Kevin Patrick coming at you. What's going on? Follows what's up?

659
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: My man? Yoked over exaggeration. UH got a great body man.

660
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, So the Minnesota Vikings a big win here.

661
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 1: I want to ask you, though, Kevin Patrick, how did

662
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 1: r G three look in his return to action? You know,

663
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 1: he came out firing. He was six for six. He

664
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: looked real good. They look like they almost dusted off

665
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: some of Kyle changing and plays from last year early

666
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: and he was in the pistol. Uh. His movement and

667
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 1: his ankle didn't seem to bother him all games. First

668
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: drive of the game he almost got tacked, wiggled out

669
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: of it, and Sandroy hell who after he rolled out.

670
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 1: I don't think that was an issue at all. But

671
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 1: then from there he only completed twelve passes after the

672
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 1: first a couple of drives and he just seemed to

673
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: hold the ball way too long. It went back to

674
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: the same things we were saying about him in the preseason.

675
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: In the first game, how long the ball way too

676
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: long and was very inaccurate on his throws. Yeah, I

677
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 1: was wondering. I looked that he took five sacks, and

678
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: the Vikings they have something with that defensive line with

679
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 1: Everson Griffin and Sharif Floyd and Anthony Bars playing. They

680
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: leave the league in sacks right now. But how much

681
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: of it was on Griffin, how much of it was

682
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: on the Vikings. I would say there were two facts

683
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: that were uh, the Vikings got on their own, and

684
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: three of them were caused by him holding the ball

685
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: too long. But he also wiggled out of a couple

686
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 1: that they should have, but they should have had two

687
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 1: or three more that he kind of wiggled out of

688
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 1: this game, was back into the combination of both, but

689
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,959
Speaker 1: he held on the ball way too long, way way too.

690
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 1: I'm I'm kind of amazed at the stage of his

691
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: development that the Vikings won a game in which Teddy

692
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: Bridgewater through forty two passes and I'm curious how he looked.

693
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: I know I did see one play where he overshot

694
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 1: Cordurel Patterson on what would have been a touchdown. Right

695
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: he overthrew him. He's having some Yeah, he I turged

696
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: him as four deep balls that he just missed on.

697
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 1: Two of them were overthrows, one was a good play

698
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: by the defender, and another one he badly, badly under threw.

699
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,239
Speaker 1: Patterson would have had a touchdown on that one as well.

700
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: Did Christian Ponder have the same problem? So, uh, what

701
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 1: you could almost say this was the quarterback kind of flipped.

702
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 1: Teddy started out terrible and then in the second half

703
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: he got into rhythm. He realized that he could step

704
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 1: up in the pocket and he avoided some of the

705
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: pressure because the Washington pressure was all over early and

706
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 1: he kind of just clicks for him and he was

707
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: making short passes. The North turner was just a step

708
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: ahead of Jim Haslet all day guys were wide opening

709
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: in the secondary and he just made easy throws. It's

710
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 1: crazy that the Vikings without Adrian Peterson are four and

711
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 1: five and you know they have the same amount of

712
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:16,439
Speaker 1: winds as San Francisco. Right now, Minnesota, they didn't get

713
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 1: excited for Mike Zimmer Coach of the year. Coach of

714
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: the year. Trying to get someone excited about this Vikings team.

715
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 1: No one else seems to care. I can't get it.

716
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:28,959
Speaker 1: We were walking up the stairs and we were talking

717
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 1: about them, and I can't get all in on the

718
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 1: Vikings that they're like to me, guaranteed, six Bruce Arians

719
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,879
Speaker 1: would need to be abducted by like hostile forces for

720
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 1: for Mike Zimmer to win Coach of the Year. By

721
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: the way, all right, Kevin, thank you again. Okay, no

722
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 1: wait wait, I'm sorry you have something else to say

723
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 1: that I was gonna give. That was so hurtful, Like

724
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: I feel so bad about it the way that came.

725
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 1: You were like, Okay, I was gonna argue with the host,

726
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 1: who are the hope? I want to hear that point

727
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 1: that you had. Um, well, I was just gonna say,

728
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: I mean, this game kind of proved. They have a

729
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: lot of young teach pieces. I'm sorry Bridgewater, like I said,

730
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: he's shown flashes where in a few years, I think

731
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 1: you'll have good. He'll be good. Anthony Barr showed up again.

732
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 1: Everson Griffin, like he said, and I think McKinnon is

733
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: a good, good piece in the backfield. I don't know

734
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 1: why they give austy out of the ball unless it's

735
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 1: on first and goal on the one, but I think

736
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: they do have some pieces here, and I think Mike

737
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 1: Zimmer's gonna move him into shape one of the best.

738
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:29,399
Speaker 1: They shown a lot of progress. One of the best

739
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: weird stats in the NFL right now is that Matt

740
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 1: has nine touchdowns in his career. So he has three

741
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: games where he had three touchdowns in the game. Never

742
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: had to touchdown any of his other games. That's weird,

743
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: flawing a Nintendo game or something. Alright, Kevin, anything else,

744
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:50,800
Speaker 1: Kevin Well, I was gonna say that he had something else?

745
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: What else he got? That was it? I'm done out.

746
00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,720
Speaker 1: Let's Georgia stands at him out. That's Kevin at a

747
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 1: coming at you. It was a little rocky there. I'm

748
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 1: upset that maybe we we didn't close things out properly.

749
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: Maybe we should have a big pow wow conference call,

750
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 1: but set up by the boss on Monday morning. And

751
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 1: you don't want an angry Kevin Patrick. You know exactly,

752
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,359
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. So Kevin Patrick bringing the hot

753
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:22,239
Speaker 1: info as always, and we move on. Philip Rivers was

754
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: shut out for the first time in his career yikes,

755
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: as the Miami Dolphins defeated the Chargers thirty seven. Nothing

756
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,879
Speaker 1: in a grim route if you're a Chargers fan. Ryan

757
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 1: Tannehill continued an extended stretch of great play, throwing three

758
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 1: touchdowns and completing over his passes. Oh yes, I gotta

759
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: ask you. We gotta hit both of these teams very

760
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:44,879
Speaker 1: hard because this is a very interesting game. But we'll

761
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 1: start with the Dolphins and the winning team. Are they

762
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:50,359
Speaker 1: for real? I think they are? Uh three uh The

763
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 1: three highest qbrs of of Ryan Tannehill's career have come

764
00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: in the last five games. He's playing much better, and

765
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,879
Speaker 1: their defense has Greg's been saying it's the top three

766
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: four defense in the NFL. I think they look great,

767
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 1: top three or four. I don't know if I've been

768
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 1: saying that, but maybe after shutting out the team of

769
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: a t L. Well, think about it. I don't know,

770
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: speaking of which, I you're gonna need more than a

771
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 1: great seventies disco song to perhaps keep us invested. I

772
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,799
Speaker 1: don't think we get a chance because people are at

773
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: We took a lot of grief during this game, people

774
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,879
Speaker 1: saying the Chargers, are you gonna dump them? I don't

775
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 1: know if we can dump them. We certainly, I know

776
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: Wes you dumped them, but um, from looking at this

777
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 1: from a team building aspect, I don't know if we can.

778
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,320
Speaker 1: We're not gonna pick another team of a t L.

779
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 1: We had our shot, and if the charges go down

780
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: in flames, you know what I say this, we stick

781
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,800
Speaker 1: with them. Yeah, we didn't fail them. They have failed

782
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: us up to this point. And let's give him a chance. Like,

783
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 1: let's hear that song, get us maybe juiced up a

784
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 1: little bit, all right? The super charges? Yeah, super charges?

785
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 1: All right? I mean I feel like that gave a

786
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 1: little It's like drinking a five hour energy shot. I

787
00:37:57,680 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 1: mean only because like, we can't pick another team, so

788
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: we had no choice buttons, so we could we could

789
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: do whatever we want. Well, there is something the process

790
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 1: croquet then they're gonna rally. They're gonna get Jason Brett back,

791
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: They're gonna get Ryan Matthews back, They're gonna get some

792
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 1: of their other defensive players, and they're gonna rally down

793
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 1: the stretch and they're gonna stick it in your bald head. Wow,

794
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: that sounds like a homicide. Breaks the skin. But the

795
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: Dolphins should have been up fifty four to nothing at

796
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: the end of the quarter today. That was serious. Nothing

797
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: people are talking about like, Oh, the Patriots. That was

798
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 1: a big win for them over Denver because now they're

799
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: gonna have the tiebreak for the potential number one seed.

800
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: With the schedule that the Patriots have in the next

801
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: five weeks. I don't know the Dolphins are good enough

802
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 1: to compete for a division title, aren't they. I know

803
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 1: you guys think, oh, because the Dolphins haven't done it

804
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 1: in the past, but the past doesn't matter anymore. I

805
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 1: think they're good enough to compete for a wild card,

806
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 1: but they don't have Tom Brady and Gronk. If the

807
00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 1: Patriots or the Broncos or the Colts or any of

808
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,919
Speaker 1: these teams beat the Chargers thirty seven, nothing we would

809
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: be lining up to right. This is the best team

810
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 1: in the NFL because they were so unlucky to lose

811
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: to the Packers on the last play. If it wasn't Greg.

812
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 1: When we talk about the Patriots and the Broncos with

813
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 1: Manning and Brady, they've been doing it for years and years.

814
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,440
Speaker 1: And how many times we've seen this story with the

815
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:24,920
Speaker 1: Dolphins where we get invested in them and then they

816
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: go into one of those funks. It happened last year.

817
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 1: I've never been invested in Yeah, let's go back to

818
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 1: the podcast and then begin into Severn and see what

819
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 1: Greg was saying. My point is that they have a

820
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 1: knack for going into funks that you don't see coming.

821
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannell has been great and credit to your boy

822
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 1: Mark the Laser, who seems to have brought something out

823
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,879
Speaker 1: to him recently. But at the same time, I would

824
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: I be stunned if Tannehill went back into the tank.

825
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:51,240
Speaker 1: I would not. Here's a factor. Tannehill let slip last

826
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: week that Dan Marino has been tutoring him and that's

827
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,879
Speaker 1: coincided with his hot streak. I don't know if that's

828
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: a laser might not like that. I don't know if

829
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: the factor either, But Tannehill credit to him there. I

830
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 1: hope as analysis that Tannell is better than what we

831
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 1: see on TV. Not a single receiver with more than

832
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: sixty five yards through the ten different guys. I mean,

833
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,799
Speaker 1: it's it is an interesting It was the best start

834
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 1: of his career. I thought, Yeah. I mean my thing

835
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,839
Speaker 1: is that they can they run the ball really well.

836
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 1: Laser has cooked up a great running game and they

837
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: have a great pass rush part of that secondary. It's like,

838
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: what more do you need? Yeah, Newton, Wilson and Kaepernick

839
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 1: are the only three quarterbacks with more rushing yards in

840
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,839
Speaker 1: him this year. And okay, and what what's going on

841
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 1: with the Chargers? I mean, what what happened to this team?

842
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 1: When they were five and one, we were talking them

843
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 1: up as a Super Bowl contender and now they look

844
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 1: like a team that couldn't get out of it. So

845
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 1: one of the reasons that we love I think they

846
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: were so productive early on was their secondary, which was

847
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: a disaster last season, was completely remade and playing very well.

848
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 1: They're they're injured. I think they need to get Ryan

849
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 1: Matthews back. Think I believe their defense has given up

850
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,239
Speaker 1: thirty one points a game over the last four or

851
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 1: five games. Whereas early in season nobody scored more than

852
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 1: twenty one in a game on them. They're not stopping anybody,

853
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: and obviously they got shut out, so they're not doing

854
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 1: that well in offense either. They have a buy now,

855
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:08,879
Speaker 1: and then they come out of it with two home

856
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 1: games Oakland and St. Louis. So you think you can

857
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: get healthy there to get the seven and four. But

858
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 1: it's impossible to catch up in the a f C

859
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: West now, and you just lost the game to another

860
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: potential wild card contender in the Dolphin. It's gonna be

861
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 1: so hard to get in in the a f C.

862
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,760
Speaker 1: This was a big loss. So we got a rally

863
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 1: around the Chargers. Yeah, I think so. And it was

864
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,240
Speaker 1: so big of you when you decided to come along

865
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 1: with us and and pick them as the team. I

866
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,800
Speaker 1: think you got to show some loyalty here. I've actually

867
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 1: got a lot of tweets in the opposite direction today

868
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:46,879
Speaker 1: blaming me for for really not taking a stand against that,

869
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,319
Speaker 1: and that if it if it wasn't, if I had

870
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 1: actually gone with my feelings, the Chargers wouldn't be the

871
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: team of we might have a more fun team to watch,

872
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:57,719
Speaker 1: or we'd have no teams we're heading towards a non agreement.

873
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 1: I think that would be preferable to great. You can

874
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: spin it anyway in the end us all kind of

875
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 1: pressuring and going along with it. It hasn't worked out

876
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,840
Speaker 1: great so far, sped. It's a results based business, and

877
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:17,359
Speaker 1: we blew it. I missed the Panthers. We did all right,

878
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 1: We move on. The Chiefs have won three in a

879
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: row and five of six after taking care of the

880
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 1: d o A New York Jets at Arrowhead Stadium. Alex

881
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: Smith was again efficient, throwing for two touchdowns no turnovers.

882
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: The Jets guys have lost eight straight since opening the

883
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:41,320
Speaker 1: season with a win over the Raiders. Cool this officially

884
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:46,879
Speaker 1: clinches I think the first go get my sandwich proposition

885
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,799
Speaker 1: of our Week one show where Mark made one where

886
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,719
Speaker 1: the Jets will have a winning record. They can no

887
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: longer have a winning You owe me a sandwich. By

888
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 1: the way, it was about a month ago that I

889
00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 1: was pitching the Jets is team of a t L.

890
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: So you know, I don't know where my head was.

891
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: I was completely wrong four days ago that I picked

892
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 1: him to win this game. And that's up with that. Yeah,

893
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 1: before we go on. Also, there was one clinch. Before that,

894
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 1: it was TD predicting Megatron about thirty seven touch Technically

895
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 1: there's plenty of time left, alright, Well no, oh no,

896
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 1: so yeah, let's talk about Percy Harviny. He had nine catches,

897
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,759
Speaker 1: a hundred thirty yards catches, eleven catches, well, all right,

898
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 1: and he had a long kickoff retune that would have

899
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 1: went for a touchdown most likely you got tripped up

900
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,360
Speaker 1: by Chiefs kicker Kiro Santos, which was a penalty. He

901
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 1: he looked like a guy that can be a centerpiece

902
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 1: of their offenses. And if there's one thing if you're

903
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: Jets mean to look forward to down the stretches, it

904
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 1: seeing if Harvin can can become a guy that you

905
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 1: could build around rather him become a rental that disappears

906
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 1: after a couple of months. Michael Vick played well enough

907
00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 1: in this game. He didn't play great, but he didn't.

908
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 1: He did something that you just don't see from the

909
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 1: Jets Uh in the last couple of years that he

910
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 1: wasn't the quarterback that committed killer turnovers. They had no

911
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 1: turnovers and Uh threw a touchdown, was efficient in terms

912
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,319
Speaker 1: of passing, and that was enough for Rex Ryan to

913
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 1: at the postgame press conference. The name the VIC starter

914
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 1: unless he's not healthy, which tells you everything you need

915
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 1: to know about To me Gino Smith, uh that that's

916
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 1: all Vic really had to do was not uh self

917
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:33,479
Speaker 1: destruct and put together literally one scoring drive against Tea. Yeah,

918
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: ten points they scored all game and then when three

919
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: of them were off a kick return, right, so they

920
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 1: really they often scored seven points. One question for you

921
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 1: in so you're watching this team and I've seen this,

922
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 1: you know, as a Brown someone who's fall the Browns

923
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 1: where the season is just utterly crumbling, the floors falling out.

924
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 1: Do you want the current GM to pick the next

925
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,120
Speaker 1: coach or do you just white wipe this whole thing.

926
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,399
Speaker 1: I feel like I've been on record on this one. Yeah,

927
00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 1: I want him out. This is the most Uh, I

928
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 1: want the whole thing. Because he's also gonna they have

929
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:04,640
Speaker 1: to pick another quarterback because this is the top Woody Johnson,

930
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 1: there's no way he can make the decision uh to

931
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 1: have Zick pick. If the Jets end up with the

932
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 1: top three pick in the draft, which we seem to

933
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,360
Speaker 1: be heading towards potentially, and they're gonna take a quarterback,

934
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,839
Speaker 1: we all know that unless they somehow take another defensive player,

935
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: which would be hilarious, but uh, they cannot let Zick

936
00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 1: do it. They just can't do it. If I'm it Zick,

937
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,959
Speaker 1: I I fire Rex Ryan, and I trade a first

938
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 1: round pick for interim head coach Sperrano from the Raiders,

939
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: and then I leave town, blowing New York's chances for

940
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 1: another year. Let's talk about the relevant team in this.

941
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 1: This is this is the most Chiefs game ever. We

942
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,320
Speaker 1: won't even talk about him. They don't throw a pass

943
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,240
Speaker 1: over thirteen yards? Do they have one pass over thirteen yards?

944
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,400
Speaker 1: And they just kind of cruised to win. It was

945
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 1: just they took our business. You know. This is they

946
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: didn't play. They didn't play a great game, but they

947
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 1: basically did. When you play bad teams like the Jets,

948
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: all you gotta do is you don't know catastrophic catastrophic turnovers.

949
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,360
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles didn't have a flashy day, but found the

950
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 1: end zone. Both their tight ends had touchdowns. Justin Houston, Yeah,

951
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 1: justin Houston is Uh, he's just been dominant. He had

952
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 1: two more sacks. He's got twelve on the year now.

953
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 1: So that guy is a special player. I mean the Chiefs.

954
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:15,200
Speaker 1: We say it every week if you throw out that

955
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 1: first week, they've been competitive weekend week out, and not

956
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 1: just competitive, they they're winning almost every week, five out

957
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: of six. I guess there are another team that's five

958
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 1: and three with the Browns and other teams, So all

959
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:29,359
Speaker 1: these teams that are five and three are kind of

960
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 1: in the same boat. But I would I would put

961
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,759
Speaker 1: the Chiefs of our uh someone that we're put doing

962
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,719
Speaker 1: a power rankings of these five and three teams, I'd

963
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 1: certainly put them over the Browns. I think they're a better,

964
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,799
Speaker 1: more well rounded team. Greg, you mentioned there's no wide

965
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:43,399
Speaker 1: receiver on Kansas City as a touchdown this season. Yeah,

966
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: it's it's all Kelsey. I mean, we knew that was

967
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 1: a weakness and getting credit to Read for finding ways

968
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,360
Speaker 1: to do what he's done without with an obvious weakness

969
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:54,719
Speaker 1: in his offense. Eventually, you would think you're gonna have

970
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 1: to throw the ball down the field to win at

971
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,080
Speaker 1: least deep into the playoffs. But this team could be

972
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,799
Speaker 1: a playoff team. It wouldn't It wouldn't shock me if

973
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,279
Speaker 1: they end up getting that sixth seed in the f C.

974
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 1: All right, before we get to the last game, we

975
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,719
Speaker 1: got the report from rap sheet NFL media insider Ian

976
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: Rappaport that Nick Foles is out at least a month

977
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 1: with a broken collar bone. So it is Mark Sancho's

978
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:23,799
Speaker 1: Mark Sanche's time in Philly for the foreseeable future. Yikes.

979
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 1: Why am I weirdly excited about this? Not happy that

980
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 1: you're not happy someone got injured, but there is something

981
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,960
Speaker 1: just interesting about seeing Sanchez taking over such a good

982
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 1: team at this point of the season, and to the

983
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 1: people I was getting a few tweets when he came

984
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 1: to the game, wouldn't this be the worst thing ever?

985
00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,279
Speaker 1: If Sanchez came in was great for the Eagles. Now,

986
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 1: of course I'll be happy for the guy. There's no

987
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,759
Speaker 1: bad blood between the Jets fans and Sanchez. It's just

988
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 1: it didn't work out. It was time for him to

989
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,400
Speaker 1: move on, and now he's gonna get an opportunity, and

990
00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:55,759
Speaker 1: if he plays well, who knows, he keeps the job

991
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:57,880
Speaker 1: and he plays great if he if he loses the

992
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 1: job when falls comes back, maybe say Chose gets a

993
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 1: job done, then we can win a playoff game or

994
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 1: two for the third time in his career. It wouldn't

995
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,880
Speaker 1: be that shocking. All right, let's get to the Sunday

996
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 1: night game. Oh johnt Ben Roethlisberger. Oh my god, Ben Roethlisberger.

997
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:16,800
Speaker 1: He threw six touchdowns in the game for the second

998
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 1: consecutive week. Chris Westling, this is he's the first quarterback

999
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:23,760
Speaker 1: in NFL history to accomplish that feat, leading the Steelers

1000
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 1: to a forty three to three win over the Baltimore

1001
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,239
Speaker 1: Ravens at Hines Field in just two weeks. And this

1002
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,319
Speaker 1: tells you what's going on in the log Jams DAFC North.

1003
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,359
Speaker 1: In just two weeks, the Ravens have gone from first

1004
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,240
Speaker 1: to last place. All four teams are in the middle

1005
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,879
Speaker 1: of the hunt. But this day, again was about Ben Roethlisberger,

1006
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:44,960
Speaker 1: who just went off complete stud performance. He has more

1007
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the last two weeks than half the starting

1008
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the NFL have all season, including falls. I

1009
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: believe it's incredible. First, such a good offense. I mean,

1010
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,240
Speaker 1: I you know, in our mid season, you know, do overs,

1011
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:00,759
Speaker 1: take a look at what you done right or wrong?

1012
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,960
Speaker 1: I you know, not even thinking about it. Pick Pittsburgh

1013
00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl. And they're starting to you know,

1014
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 1: here's the thing, though, they are starting to look like

1015
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:10,880
Speaker 1: that team that's going to take command of a division

1016
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 1: that right now is close. But it wasn't just ten

1017
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 1: days ago that we were talking about the Ravens is

1018
00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:19,280
Speaker 1: the clear front and runner and consistent team. Way two weeks,

1019
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:20,919
Speaker 1: we'll see where we are. I'm not ready to say

1020
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:22,959
Speaker 1: they go looking at the schedule. We'll get to the game.

1021
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 1: Uh a little bit more in a second, but I

1022
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 1: just want to say the Steelers are well set up

1023
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 1: here now they have They're at the Jets next week.

1024
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,399
Speaker 1: Who knows how many touchdowns he throws against the Jet secondary. Uh,

1025
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 1: probably at least eleven. I would guess that would be

1026
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 1: so at Jets at Titans, and they hit their bye week,

1027
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 1: so we're looking at eight and three most likely. And

1028
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 1: then they got Saints at Bengals at Falcons, home to

1029
00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:50,640
Speaker 1: Chiefs and home to Bengals. This it's crazy how quickly

1030
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 1: the game can turn. I mean, they had three three

1031
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 1: announced to start the game. They had a drive where

1032
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 1: he got sacked three straight times. Uh. And then the Ravens,

1033
00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:59,719
Speaker 1: who seemed like they should have been ahead by more,

1034
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:01,880
Speaker 1: turned the pall over a couple of times. They had

1035
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:04,360
Speaker 1: a chance in this game, but the couple of plays

1036
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:06,719
Speaker 1: that really stand out to me is when Ben Roethlisberger

1037
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 1: extended to play. It was a third and five and

1038
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: he eluded Ravens tackler just before the half. And the

1039
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 1: next play that's when he goes deep, too deep to

1040
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,720
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown. Have been the same thing for three weeks now.

1041
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 1: The Steelers have that quick strike offense. If you're turning

1042
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,320
Speaker 1: the ball over, you could be down three touchdowns in

1043
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:28,279
Speaker 1: a heartbeat. And they're averaging forty one points a game

1044
00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 1: since adding Martevios Bryant to the next It's a shame

1045
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:36,239
Speaker 1: they wasted six games on Justin Brown as their number

1046
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 1: three receives. Well maybe they needed that time to get

1047
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 1: Briant hot, but they have been a completely different offense

1048
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 1: when they've added him in as a red zone weapon.

1049
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 1: And you look at Baltimore and the Ravens are a

1050
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,239
Speaker 1: very complete team and they're gonna be right in it

1051
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:51,759
Speaker 1: till the end. But the Steelers, and of any team

1052
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:55,920
Speaker 1: in that division, has the juiciest collection of weapons. And

1053
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,799
Speaker 1: when they're operating at that power, because Big Ben, I'll

1054
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: take him over Andy Dalton a day of the week.

1055
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 1: That no, but no, But because here's the thing everyone

1056
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 1: Everyone always likes to talk about the Bengals with with oh,

1057
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:12,799
Speaker 1: they're the most complete team in the division, But no

1058
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 1: they're not, because the only position that really matters to

1059
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,840
Speaker 1: get you farther into January is what Big Ben offers

1060
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,560
Speaker 1: the Steelers and that's the difference. And this is also

1061
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,319
Speaker 1: in in credit all credit to Big Ben what he

1062
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:27,440
Speaker 1: was able to do to on Sunday night, Legart Blunt

1063
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:31,200
Speaker 1: and Levyan Bell combined for twenty carries for forty three yards.

1064
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:34,800
Speaker 1: So basically, Roethlisberger put the offense on his back. Antonio

1065
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 1: Brown again like deserves to be in any discussion of

1066
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 1: best running wide receiver in football right now. Eleven for one,

1067
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 1: one in a touch, Uh, West, I know you championed

1068
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh earlier in the season. Is your team around the NFL?

1069
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:49,919
Speaker 1: And you have a very self satisfied look on your face.

1070
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,879
Speaker 1: Smug it is, it's smug. But listen the way things

1071
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: have broke now suddenly. And Roethlisberger is not gonna keep

1072
00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: this up every week. He will next week against the Jets,

1073
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,799
Speaker 1: but he's bound to cool off a little bit. But

1074
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: the way they look right now, they are right in

1075
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 1: the mix right now. Is in the a f C

1076
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 1: for sure. Little peek behind the curtain for our listeners.

1077
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 1: Dan came dancing into the studio tonight. He's got Grateful Dead.

1078
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 1: Franklin's Tower playing is a new tradition on Sunday nights.

1079
00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 1: Moods to Touch of Gray and Franklin's Tower the two

1080
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 1: way know. Just put you in that good mood. Let

1081
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 1: me read you this tweet because I got about thirty

1082
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,319
Speaker 1: thirty of these tweets with the same tenor. This is

1083
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:33,359
Speaker 1: from low s Quail Eggs on Twitter. Please convince your

1084
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 1: fellow heroes to switch the Team of at L to

1085
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,440
Speaker 1: the Steelers. They're as exciting as you build them to be. Well,

1086
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:42,919
Speaker 1: now that they've added likable fellows like James Harrison back

1087
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 1: into the mix, how could we resist. That's not suspicious

1088
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 1: at all. Like the eight Again, I don't care who's

1089
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 1: on the team as long as they're exciting to watch.

1090
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 1: The problem with Team of a t L beyond the

1091
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 1: fact that it really is going to be the Team

1092
00:52:56,520 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 1: of Wesley or We're gonna have problems, is that Paul did.

1093
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 1: The issue is consensus. The Steelers got whacked out of

1094
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: this race. I wasn't even in the room. M yeah,

1095
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,560
Speaker 1: but by the way, because I whacked them officially. But

1096
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,280
Speaker 1: I'm not getting behind as a team of around the NFL,

1097
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,520
Speaker 1: A five times Super Bowl winner with a Hall of

1098
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:18,480
Speaker 1: Fame quarterback. That's not the spirit of this. It's absolutely

1099
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:20,919
Speaker 1: the spirit of it. They weren't supposed to be good

1100
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,160
Speaker 1: this year, Like a t L is the only group

1101
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 1: that actually picked them to win the division, and they're

1102
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:27,759
Speaker 1: just exciting to watch. I still don't get how their

1103
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 1: defense is good. Like I'm not that shocked that the

1104
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:33,480
Speaker 1: offense has turned into one of the top five offense

1105
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:36,160
Speaker 1: in the league. I don't get that. Brett Keisel and

1106
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 1: James Harrison are two of the key parts of a

1107
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 1: defense that's playing. And I think there's a factory where

1108
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:43,439
Speaker 1: you open a door and there's like twenty five Brett

1109
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:46,800
Speaker 1: Keisels and they just will at the newest machine version

1110
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:49,879
Speaker 1: of James Harrison's best defensive coordinator in football. Maybe that's

1111
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:54,160
Speaker 1: one of trust in the Steelers defense. I don't at all.

1112
00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 1: I won't say what Mark said when they were coming upstairs.

1113
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:00,560
Speaker 1: He said he was going to refer to Big Big

1114
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:02,759
Speaker 1: Ben by a different name. We can't say it on

1115
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,439
Speaker 1: this podcast. But I don't begrudge and he's a he's

1116
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 1: a good quarterback that you I grew up and as

1117
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:12,960
Speaker 1: a Browns fan, you know Ben Roethlisberger. This is why

1118
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,920
Speaker 1: it's insane that Wesley thinks he's You should never be

1119
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 1: a politician, and you won't be one that you're gonna

1120
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,799
Speaker 1: build consensus in this room with Pittsburgh his team of

1121
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 1: a t L when I'm not even the one that

1122
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:25,279
Speaker 1: knocked him out. These guys got rid of him for

1123
00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 1: the right. They're not an underdog team. No matter how

1124
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,839
Speaker 1: you build them. You can never Bill Pittsburgh is an

1125
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 1: underdog team. Don't sell them the Chargers. This will get

1126
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 1: us up again because we can't give up up. There

1127
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:48,800
Speaker 1: you go, Charger's charges, that songs more. I picked the

1128
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,080
Speaker 1: Jets that was very solid around the NFL team, and

1129
00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:53,839
Speaker 1: I don't know where you guys went. So that's it

1130
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:56,839
Speaker 1: for Sunday's edition of the Around the NFL Podcast. We'll

1131
00:54:56,880 --> 00:55:00,720
Speaker 1: be back on Wednesday for another week of citing NFL

Speaker 1: you know, tense talks. I'm putting some pressure on TV.

1136
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:20,080
Speaker 1: Get a real contestant on the horn, not some tomato

1137

00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:30,600
Speaker 1: t D a call. If you actively run into walls

Speaker 1: and also listen to this podcast, this is your chance.

1141
