1
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: I and welcome to the official Good Morning Football podcast.

2
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 1: I'm Will Solb and here are the best moments from

3
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: this week so far at the Breakfast Table. Week twelve

4
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: is over and we're still recovering from all the action,

5
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 1: from a record setting performance out of Philip Rivers to

6
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 1: a limbo inspired Vikings celebration. Let's find out what the

7
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: Breakfast Table thought about some of the biggest games from

8
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: Week twelve. Top colts we just saw the highlight has

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 1: been very impressive. One of the most impressive stats of

10
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,480
Speaker 1: the season is how many consecutive weeks he's gone without

11
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: getting sacked. It happened yesterday, of course, but is it

12
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: time to officially put him in the MVP conversation? This

13
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: is a charge you've been leading on this show. Oh yeah,

14
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: this is this is its past time. This is not

15
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:48,599
Speaker 1: a cute story anymore. With the Colts where they got

16
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,840
Speaker 1: off the map. They are a juggernaut. They haven't lost

17
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,639
Speaker 1: a game in six weeks. Andrew Luck is breaking records

18
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: held by Dan Marino about consecutive games with Peyton Manning.

19
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: Has Peyton, Manning and Brady are just in his reach

20
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: like it's a joke. How well they're playing right now.

21
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: I say this all the time. I take the MVP

22
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: very literally, and I put the value in it. It's

23
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: not whoever has the best stats on the best team,

24
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,119
Speaker 1: it is whoever means the most to his team. Take

25
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: Breeze off the Saints, Mahome's off the Chiefs. I think

26
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: they find a way to win games. You take Luck

27
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: off the Colts, they may be over right now. He

28
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: is fantastic. The Colts right now are the best story

29
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: in the AFC by far, and the highlights might not

30
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 1: tell the story. They're down, you know, ten points with

31
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: eight minutes left in the fourth quarter, and there was

32
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: no panic, no worry. Luck said, come with me. Guys

33
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 1: led them on a long drive. The defense stopped led

34
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: him on another long drive. And I'll double down on

35
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: that lazy in the MVP conversation, I think Frank Writs

36
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: in the Coach of the Year conversation, Quittin Nelson's in

37
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: the offensive Rookie of the Year conversation, and I think

38
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 1: Darius Leonards in the defensive Last year, the Rams kind

39
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: of swept the NFL honors. These six and five Colts

40
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: right now, to me are the team that we're gonna

41
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: show up the night for the Super Bowl, the Colts one,

42
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: everything that went, all that's hardware. They're that good. And

43
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck is firmly. He might be in the leader's

44
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: seat right now with Mahome and Brees looking at him.

45
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: But if they win all those things, and that takes

46
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: away from what your literal meaning of most Valuable Player,

47
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: because you do have Frank Reich making a guy out

48
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,519
Speaker 1: of Eric Ebron that never thrived in Detroit. So I

49
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 1: don't know if he's the MVP. What he's doing having

50
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: the second most touchdowns behind Patrick Mahomes this season without

51
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: an elite deep receiving chore s t Y Hilton and

52
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: some other guys that maybe wouldn't put up those numbers with.

53
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: But he's still behind Drew Brees to me because some

54
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: of the throws Drew Brees is making. I know he's

55
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: got talent around him, but his team is ten and

56
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: one and he's doing things I've never seen before. Yeah,

57
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: it's okay for multiple guys to be in the race,

58
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: you know, Pat Mahomes, Drew Brees. Of course, Philip Rivers

59
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: is a dark horse. Andrew Luck is a dark horse.

60
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: But I feel like you can go into the season

61
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: saying that he doesn't have that much help. But if

62
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: you look at t Y Hilton, Eric Ebron, Naim Himes,

63
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 1: Marlon Mack, all these different individuals that have really taken

64
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: shape to give him the skill players he needed, he's

65
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: showing out. Yeah, and here's the thing you mentioned it.

66
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,839
Speaker 1: If he's right behind Pat Mahomes right now, Pat Molomes

67
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: sitting at thirty seven touchdowns, I believe Andrew Luck at

68
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: thirty one or thirty two. If he finishes the season

69
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: at eleven and five and Pat Mahomes has a couple

70
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 1: of games where he doesn't throw for four or five

71
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: touchdowns and he ends up leading the league and touchdowns.

72
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck with his team at eleven and five, forty

73
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: plus touchdowns, you better bring them up in the MVP conversation.

74
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 1: I said this a few weeks ago, and people were like, oh,

75
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: this is crazy. You know why I said it because

76
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: I watched my guy Kyle Brown over here, bang on

77
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 1: the table and say they will be in the playoffs.

78
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: Pay attention to Andrew Luck, and I said, you know

79
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: what we should, So I start watching him closely, and

80
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: the more and more I paid attention to what he's doing,

81
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: the more I realize, if he stays on a heater

82
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: like this, gets his team into the playoffs, has ten

83
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: plus wins, you better bring him up when it comes

84
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: to most Valuable Player. I look at that, and I

85
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: think I look at the numbers right. Eleven interceptions for Luck,

86
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: two interceptions for Drew Brees. Tell me how these voters

87
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: work to do? Is that what they look at or

88
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: what I think they look at? The team that a

89
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: either dominated from start to finish, but be which player

90
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: embodied that team's success. I think Drew Brees is right now,

91
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: probably with Mahomes in that front running spot. But if

92
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: you're doing a horse race, here comes and Andrew Luck

93
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: coming and he's coming home, and if they finished eleven

94
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: and five, he will get votes. What a great story

95
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: the writers of the story by Luck is the superstar

96
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: that everyone just went to sleep on and forgot about

97
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: and wrote off the story of him. I mean he

98
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: had his team in the second round when Pat Mahomes

99
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 1: was on the pitcher's mound, you know I mean this

100
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: way again? Of course, would he ever played him, would

101
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: ever be the same. I don't think he's ever been better.

102
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: And wait till the next few years when they start

103
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: continuing to build this team around him and draft more

104
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: weapons than everything. Luck looks He's never looked as good.

105
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 1: He is so good. He barely gets hit, he doesn't miss,

106
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: he throws it away. It's everything we've always wanted Andrew

107
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: Luck to be. Protects him. Somebody's running exactly. I mean,

108
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: it's good right now. Somebody somebody beat him. And I

109
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: love that you bring up Frank Riich because how good

110
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: the Colts look and how the Eagles haven't looked good,

111
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: and it's really an indictment on how important he was

112
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: to that team. Aaron Rodgers will majority of the time

113
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: playing mistake free football. He needs the pieces around him

114
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: to play mister free football. So when you look at

115
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: what they have, Davante Adams is a monster, He's tremendous talent.

116
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: He was eating up Rhodes yesterday. He was. Aaron Jones

117
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: is a beast. Aaron Rodgers gets busy. But when you

118
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: make mistakes, seeing you collapse against a team that will

119
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: take advantage of that, this is the result. But I

120
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: will say this, I feel like we're burying the lead.

121
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: The fact that he's sitting there after the game saying

122
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: beat them, beat them beat them. You guys know what

123
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: fans think and media thinks when a player guarantees one game.

124
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 1: I remember saying we're gonna win on Sunday, and this

125
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: is the beginning of season, and everybody got in they

126
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: feelings the fact that Aaron Rodgers is doing again. What

127
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: if here those other teams, it's on the schedule and

128
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers just told the whole world We're about to

129
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 1: beat everybody the rest of the season. That's a bold take.

130
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: This is the guy who's a master motivator. He's done

131
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: the relax, he's done run the table. This is not

132
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: so much for us in the media to get. That

133
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: is for the locker room. Talk about it. That is

134
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: for the locker room. That is why you pay Aaron

135
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: Rodgers the money because he will go out there, put

136
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,919
Speaker 1: himself on a limb and yeah, he'll look like a

137
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 1: fool if they lose the next two games. And hey,

138
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: what was that all about. He is now trying. It's

139
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 1: like he's at around him, he's at the casino. He's

140
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 1: on his last dime. This is a warrior on his

141
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: last time. After a tough loss on the road in

142
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: the game that he did not play his best game,

143
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 1: saying I'm putting all the chips on the table, but

144
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try every last motivational trick. If that's what

145
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: gets Aaron Jones going, if that's what gets Jamie Graham

146
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: to play tough with that broken thumb, which he did

147
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 1: last night, Jimmy Graham's valiant last night. Like Packers have

148
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: been terrible on the road, Packers have been awful the

149
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: last few weeks. Aaron Rodgers is trying every last motivational

150
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: tactic and if it works, hats off to him. I

151
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: love that he's trying it. What's gonna get him going?

152
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: He's playing great, great these guys playing on his last

153
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: dime at the fifty dollars table, Peter, And this is

154
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: hard for us. We have such a healthy respect for

155
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: the talent. I have no more love to give. They've

156
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: played eleven games and they've won four. All Right, It's

157
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: like Sam Wise, gamgee, don't go where I can't follow you.

158
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 1: What am I supposed to do with? The Browns have

159
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: the same record as the Packers, and one hundred percent

160
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: believe more in the Browns right now? With Peter, is

161
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 1: this hard for you because I know you respect Rogers

162
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: so much? Is it hard for you? I said before

163
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: this season, coming off the collar roone, he will be

164
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: the MVP of the league. And here we are where

165
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: they four seve one, four six and one. Come on,

166
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that's impossible, right though? You're not?

167
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: You feel so you're telling me this team gives you.

168
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: There's some juice. Him and McCarthy might have even me

169
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: talking the way that the body language, it looks awful. Yeah,

170
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 1: it looks terrible. That sound bite alone. I've been through

171
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: this too many times with this guy. I can't util

172
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: they're officially eliminated. That was last week, and there was

173
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: the week before. This to me was the Rogers leaf

174
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: toown game. You can't lost again at four six and one.

175
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: I can't. I've seen the Panthers lose three straight games.

176
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: I see the Redskins without Alex Smith, I see the

177
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: Eagles muddling around. You say, what's your guts? Say? Never

178
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: mind the standings? Who lose? Do you really think this

179
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: team is a winner? They have confidence? You know what

180
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: I mean? No, they're not a winner, but can they

181
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 1: get that sixth seed and make a run? Never count

182
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: that guy out. Kyle got to ask you. So they've

183
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: got Week fifteen at the Bears. This is I think

184
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: the gauge of how you feel there's as a Bears fan,

185
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: you were just conditioned to be a terrified of Aaron

186
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 1: Rodgers and company. With the way that he's playing, with

187
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: the way that this team is playing, do you have

188
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: any concern about them going to Soldier Field and getting

189
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: a win like they usually do. There's a great little

190
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: thing in that run he was on, but we gotta

191
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: go to this team, this team he goes, We're gonna Chicago,

192
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: where we've had a lot of success. Yeah, a little thing, right,

193
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: So if I'm a barrass fan one, I'm terrified that

194
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: he's still Pennywise. They can't beat him. We played the Falcons,

195
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: I've had a lot of success tests around that like,

196
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: and he has. But we gotta win some games here,

197
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: and it's it's December almost we gotta win. What is

198
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: our big takeaway from Seahawks Panthers sort of any vacuum,

199
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: but then you guys can take it forever you like,

200
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: the biggest takeaway is that Russell Wilson has something we've

201
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: been waiting for for quite some time. That's a running

202
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: game he has playmakers that have stepped up around him.

203
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 1: I think for a long time since Marshawn left, it

204
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: was who's going to run the ball, And then there

205
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 1: was a moment where we thought, Okay, they got Dug

206
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: Baldwin and he's a pretty good wide receiver, but who

207
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 1: else playmakers? And I think for the first time, Russell

208
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: Wilson doesn't have to do everything. I love alluding to

209
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: the stat that I bring up all the time, and

210
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 1: that's Russell Wilson last year accounting for thirty seven to

211
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: thirty eight touchdowns, which is a crazy step. He's out

212
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: there playing relaxed, with a big smile on his face

213
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: and straight so I know you want to talk about

214
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: some of those guys. That's because he doesn't feel like

215
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: he has the weight of the world on the shoulders

216
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: every single game. We do something on the show where

217
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: we say watchability. What are those teams that you're flipping

218
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 1: through and you're like, I want to watch this team.

219
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: The Cults are a team that I want to watch

220
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: right now. The Seahawks in the NFC are so watchable.

221
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: They have these tight games and whether they win or lose,

222
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 1: they give it. They're all and I gotta give it

223
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: a testament to just the scouting in the front office.

224
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 1: Look at on these guys. David Moore was a seventh

225
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: round pick out of East Central, Oklahoma. He's making huge

226
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: plays down the stretch. Chris Carson was a seventh round

227
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: pick out of Oklahoma State. George Fant was undrafted. He's

228
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: a blocking tight end that also could play offensive tackle

229
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: at a Western Kentucky t Drick Thompson, Shaquille Griffin, I

230
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: know we talked about Shaquille Griffin has been awesome this season.

231
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: The Seahawks are fun and this was not supposed to

232
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: happen if you watched anywhere on television and not in

233
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: Seattle this year. This was a gap year. They graduating class.

234
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna go forth hospelve. We'll get it. They're right

235
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,719
Speaker 1: in it. They're the most entertaining team and they get

236
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: they made They made key plays when they had to,

237
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: and the Carolina Panthers simply did not. The Carolina Panthers

238
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: had no killer instant class the Seahawks. They did. The

239
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: Seahawks are a blast right now. Heuter there's an East

240
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: Central Oklahoma. East Central that's it. This team was owned

241
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 1: two and it's the gap year thing. Then they're two

242
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: and three, it's like they got off the mat. Then

243
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: they're four and five and maybe you know they're messing

244
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: with their draft pick. Now they're dangerous as hell. I

245
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 1: think there's good quarterbacks in this league. There's great ones,

246
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: and then there's scary ones. The ones you do not

247
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: want in the playoffs. You don't want Russell Whistler playoffs.

248
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: That throw on fourth and three. I think it's my

249
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: favorite play of the year. David Moore was a ridiculous

250
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 1: play and call the Coon's on fourth and three. Guys

251
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: on the road, We're gonna throw it deep to the

252
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: end zone. You don't do that. You get to the sticks,

253
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 1: you move the chains, Russ runs around and scrambles, and

254
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: then you live another day. You know how easily this

255
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: could be incomplete? The coverage is there. You just didn't

256
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: trying to make a play. Yeah, it's the perfect time.

257
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 1: There's only a few guys in this game that we

258
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: cover that would try that throw, let alone complete it.

259
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 1: He's one of them. They're so alive, they're so scary.

260
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: You do not want them in the Panthers. Ever since

261
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: Cam showed up and what's up? Maybe a T shirt.

262
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: They haven't won a game, they're over, they're on the skids,

263
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: and the defense is letting down. But Seattle right now,

264
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: I look at Seattle in the NFC and the Colts

265
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 1: in the FC as the teams you do not want

266
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: on the club. It's because of those quarterbacks and don't

267
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: see ahead, no go ahead. I wasn't try about the

268
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: Panthers to finish your thought on well Russell Wilson. I

269
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: remember there's a moment where Joe Flacco he won the

270
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: Super Bowl at the right time, right and got paid,

271
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: and everybody saying he played so well in November December,

272
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 1: and we kept talking about it. He plays well in

273
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: November December. We're done with that, Joe Flaco, you had

274
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: that title for a while. It's Russell Wilson's time, because

275
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 1: every single time around this month it scartt next year.

276
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,559
Speaker 1: He's played so well on a high level. Yeah, a

277
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 1: season high three thirty nine, just when we thought, oh,

278
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: this is the best running team in football, which they

279
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: were statistically. Can we give Russell Wilson credit for being

280
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 1: possibly the most clutch quarterback in November and December. If

281
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: you're the ram, do you want to see this guy.

282
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 1: I've heard a third time no Canter side though, since

283
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 1: nobody brought it up as a chap away from this

284
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: game because they're all talking Seattle. I know that they lost,

285
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: and now it's three straight. They're sitting there at six

286
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: and five, right. I would like to put some blame

287
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,199
Speaker 1: on Cam, but I can't because he's looked awesome, efficient,

288
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 1: accurate out there. Christian McCaffrey's doing his thing. It's weirdly

289
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 1: the defense to blame for the streakiness of the season.

290
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: The defense has allowed over one hundred points in three

291
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: game straight. They let Russell Wilson, who's amazing on his own,

292
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,079
Speaker 1: but they let him back to back five consecutive drives.

293
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: Seattle put up points. That is not the Panthers defense

294
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: that I sort of know. Are you guys no longer

295
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: worried about the Panthers or are they a dangerous team

296
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: at six and five? I don't know what to make

297
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: of them. I think I'm concerned for the Panthers, and

298
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 1: I think when you get to the red zone seven

299
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 1: times and you don't turn those into points, and going

300
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: forward on fourth and three and Cam is not getting

301
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: that first down, things are getting weird for them and

302
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: it's getting away quick. I got to make some kicks

303
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 1: for him in those big plays too. From defense caused

304
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: no turnovers yesterday. You see Thomas and Keithley, you think

305
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 1: they're set. Defense is letting him down. That's right. Philip

306
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,439
Speaker 1: Rivers completed ninety six point six percent of his passes,

307
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 1: setting a single game NFL record passing Friend of the

308
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 1: Show and Nerd Bowl Extraordinair? Did he win a Nerd Bowl?

309
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 1: Did ye? Shampion? Joe's dancer Kurt Warner? Takeaways? Gentlemen from

310
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: the two and eight Cardinals facing going into this one,

311
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 1: of course, facing the Chargers who fell in Denver a

312
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: week ago. Charges came out real flat in the game.

313
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was. They overlooked the Cardinals

314
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 1: whatever was terrified, Yeah, and I'll blame they came out flat.

315
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: Rosen came out through a touch on that fitzgeraldon was great.

316
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: And then there was a play that changed everything. And

317
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: it's the play the Charges fans been waiting for for

318
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: four months. The pit boss, Joey Bosa came back last

319
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: week said afterwards, my foot wasn't right. It in and

320
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: feel good. He looked really good. Yesterday had a sack

321
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: right here, just exploded off the line. He had another

322
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 1: sack in the game, And why is this not that

323
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: important that he sacking Josh Rosen? This game they destroyed them.

324
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: What's important is if you watch that play and look

325
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: through your fingers, use your imagination and it's red and

326
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: red and it's not Rosen. Maybe it's Patrick Mahomes, maybe

327
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: it's somebody there. Because we talk all the time about

328
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: the charges, it seems to be their whole season is

329
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 1: building up to whether or not they could be Kansas City.

330
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: They can do this. This is great. They be at

331
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,040
Speaker 1: the Cardinals, can you be Kansas City. Bosa is a

332
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,839
Speaker 1: massive difference maker. I think that play energized the entire team.

333
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: He's back, he looks spry. That could be a difference

334
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 1: maker in the whole a FC guys, he's that good.

335
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: They've got to go into Arrowheads still and that's to

336
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: do it season game. And guess what if they do

337
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: win that, we could be talking about a lot of

338
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,199
Speaker 1: different things. We can be talking about a home playoff game,

339
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: we can be talking about a first round bye. They're

340
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: that good. Yeah, I think they are Super Bowl contenders.

341
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: I have trouble getting all in on the Chargers though

342
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: because of recent history, they don't beat the Chiefs. Yeah,

343
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: eighty Reid is a head coaching Chiefs has never lost

344
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: to the Chargers. But maybe this Chargers team is different

345
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: and maybe hearing that so many times they get to win.

346
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: Kyle's right. They were down ten nothing in this game

347
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: to a bad Cardinals team, and I think a lot

348
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: of people are like same old Chargers and then they

349
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: want forty five to ten and Rivers looked as good

350
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: as he ever did. This might be a different Chargers team,

351
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: and I'm okay with that. I want to see the

352
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: Chargers get a big win. I would like to see it.

353
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: I would say, there's no mind about it. This is

354
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: a different Chargers team. When you look at the way

355
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: they started the game and how they finished the game,

356
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: it's a direct reflection of who they are right now.

357
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: And of course when reading's highlights, we're gonna talk about

358
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, right and the ninety six point six and

359
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: the record twenty eight for twenty nine. It's no surprise

360
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: that at this age Philip Rivers playing at such a

361
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: high level. It's because of the surrounding pieces. You look

362
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: at the play calling. He's comfortable, he knows it like

363
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: the back of his hand. He has the high the

364
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: high IQ because he's been the league forever. And then

365
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: you have guys like this, Travis Benjamin making plays the speedster,

366
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: Tyroll Williams, Mike Williams, of course, Keenan Allen, Tonio Gates

367
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: still bolling at his age. I remember in the summertime,

368
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: I said, this is the most well rounded wide receiver

369
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: corps on paper. Yeah, I was just throwing it against

370
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: the wall because of what I saw on paper. I'm

371
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: glad that the wide receiver Corps looked themselves in the

372
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: mirror and said, we are the most talented. We have everything.

373
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: We have the hype, the speed, We can stretch the

374
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: field and we can move the chains. And if Philip

375
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 1: Rivers can continue to lean on these pass catchers. Along

376
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: with Melvin Gordon, who had another two touchdowns, he left

377
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 1: in the third, so Ian Rappaport came out and said

378
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: he's out for a couple of weeks. You guys, that's

379
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: a huge deal. That is that is losing Girley. If

380
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: you're the Rams, that is exactly what he is to

381
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: this offense through the passing game on the ground and

382
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: what he's thirteen total touchdowns is year he leads the

383
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: league in yards per touch. How big of a difference

384
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: is that. It's a huge deal, But they have enough playmakers.

385
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: Austin Eckler is amazing for the Steelers Bengals. Chiefs look

386
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 1: at Austin. He's a great young guy that will suffice.

387
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: And on top of that, they gave Gronkowski two weeks rest.

388
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: Look what he did, what he came back on the field. Agree,

389
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: sometimes you gotta go Popovitch with the Spurs and sit

390
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 1: you guys down on the bench for a little bit

391
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: to let him rest up on those NFL and every

392
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: fan will see their player play every single week. But

393
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: if you got to rest Melvin Gordon for him the

394
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: hill up for a couple of weeks, I'm perfectly fine

395
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: with that. He's playing that good and the backups will

396
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: do okay. MCL situation, We'll have Ian rappaport On to

397
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: give you guys more details on that. With me, I'm

398
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: taking a little less of a polly On approach. I

399
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: think with the Chargers it's like, oh, they're also they're great.

400
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: To put up forty five points, you were supposed to

401
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: put up forty five points. You're facing a two and

402
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 1: eight team. I'm not impressed with this. They have to

403
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: show me what they can do. And I'm on board

404
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: with this team. I like them, But if you're in

405
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: a relationship with a dude, you don't You don't get

406
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: brownie points. They don't like reward you for putting the

407
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: toilet seat down and making your side of the bed.

408
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: You're supposed to do those things. It's when you write

409
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 1: cute notes and leave them on the counter, go get

410
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: my car detailed, bring me the cupcakes or whatever on

411
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 1: a random Tuesday. That's when you really have me. And

412
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 1: that is when you go beat the Steelers and take

413
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: care of business in Arrowheads. So I'm being a little

414
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,360
Speaker 1: cupper on them now. My heart is a little guarded,

415
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: even though they have the talent to get it done.

416
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,919
Speaker 1: I like what they did, but you're supposed to do

417
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: that against bad teams, right, I feel cupcakes. I mean,

418
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: he made the bed, but he put a little mint

419
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 1: on there too. I don't know. I don't have a

420
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: car to detail. By the way, said hey babe, I

421
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 1: left the toilet sea. Yeah, it's like all world comes

422
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: like you don't get points for that, baby X. Okay,

423
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: my winner of the week is not a player, and

424
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: it's it's not some wonderful front office executive who made

425
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: a move. It's Frank Reich. I tell you, guys, seen

426
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: how Frank Wreich came into the game on Sunday, his

427
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: approach into the locker room. Look at that look? Is

428
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 1: that not the best? All right? Frank? You know what

429
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: Frank Reich knows that he looks like a sheriff in

430
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: a small town right there, and they're this town right

431
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: They're down ten points late, the Colts down ten late,

432
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: find a way to get the win. Andrew lux canna

433
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: get all the glory. And we love Quentin Nelson, and

434
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: we love Darius Leonard and tis playing great. And you

435
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: said Ebron's having this amazing season. Frank rank Reich was

436
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: not supposed to be the coach of this team. Josh

437
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: McDaniels was, and Frank Reich said, don't worry, I'm the

438
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,640
Speaker 1: cave of comebacks. This is a one in five team.

439
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 1: After they lost to the Patriots on Thursday night, we

440
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: came in here and we were like, all right, the

441
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,239
Speaker 1: Colts are a couple of years away the cults might

442
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: make a run this yere Frank Reich. I love how

443
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:35,919
Speaker 1: you walked into the stadium, and I love how you

444
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: left the stadium. The Colts are real contenders, not just

445
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 1: for the playoffs but in the AFC. I don't want

446
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 1: to play them if I'm an opposing team, and I

447
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: don't want to coach against that guy. Frank Reich won

448
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 1: the week for me, super Bowl winning coach who I

449
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: think most pundits like overestimated what his loss would be

450
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 1: with the Eagles. Absolutely with those transitions. Lenses are so cool, incredible,

451
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: and the cults are there an all the transition themselves.

452
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:00,879
Speaker 1: I used to play this game, and I think it

453
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 1: was Super Nintendo called Super High Impact Football. It was

454
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: crazy like street ball. Things were nuts and if you've

455
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: got three consecutive sacks, this guy would come out and

456
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: go are your quarterbacks for breakfast? And it was this

457
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 1: incredible animation because he talked and it was the mid nineties.

458
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 1: We saw that yesterday we saw a guy eat quarterbacks

459
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: for breakfast. Baltimore Ravens, Matthew Judean, Guys, here's the deal.

460
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 1: This was the play that sprun. That's Rrell Suggs fumble

461
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: return which gets all the attention and Sugs is great

462
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: and Peter thinks his surfire Hall of Famer june is

463
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 1: the one who stripped it and got the sack. So

464
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: you made a great play a lot of people did yesterday.

465
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: As Sugs finishes up to touchdown, so they score, they

466
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 1: kick off, the Raiders come back on offense. This is

467
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 1: still the same play fumble again for Sugs. We're just

468
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: gonna keep looking at it because that could be the

469
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: play of the day. But then the very next snap

470
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,360
Speaker 1: for the Oakland Raiders, Matthew Judon gets a sack. Never

471
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: mind the flag, it stands. That was first down. Now

472
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 1: it's second down for the Raiders. Judean, somebody chip um

473
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: or something. You gotta be getting me. Three straight sacks

474
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,200
Speaker 1: and what does june On do? That's it. I'm out

475
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: of here. I'm running. This is bo Jackson into the tunnel.

476
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: I am gone. The best part about this, guys. That

477
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: was on second down. So it's third down right now,

478
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 1: and Judean is down the belt way up dude out

479
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: there and he's having a party in the tunnel. Hardpas laughing.

480
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: There's football to be played here. You've ever seen that

481
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: a defensive player midfield go all the way into the tunnel. Now,

482
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: I've never seen it, I don't think. I think the

483
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 1: last time I remember it was that crazy Bengals still

484
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,360
Speaker 1: playoff game where Vontz did ended up losing. I've never

485
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: seen it in the middle of a win like that

486
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: three consecutive sack. If he hadn't done that, perhaps you

487
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: would have got a four consecutive, but he was all

488
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: out of bread everything. So Judean always been the best

489
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: kept secret of the Ravens defense. Fifth Round Pig, Grand

490
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 1: Valley Stay. He is now having his coming out party.

491
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 1: It's perfect because he gets the sack and everyone talks

492
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: about sugs. Ye, Judeon is the story could help carry

493
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: that defense to the playoffs. We're talking to winners here

494
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: on Good Morning Football. Give you guys a loser. The

495
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: loser in week twelve was the laws of physics. Frankly gravity,

496
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: frankly just science. Yeah, was at a loss with this

497
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: sort of play, Chris Carson, let's take a look it

498
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: was he he was able to do. Show it a

499
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: couple of times during the show. We got to run

500
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 1: this back because he gets done. Oh how how does

501
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 1: he land on his feet. Guys, I do not understand.

502
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 1: Riddle me that. It's an incredible flip because finally someone

503
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: gets bit for the hurdle. Right, he's gonna embarrass himself.

504
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: He's gonna go now, he's out like Spider Man. It's unbelievable.

505
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 1: His arm also catch myself. That is good. He's a

506
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,880
Speaker 1: winner because three touchdowns in the last four games, leading

507
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: rusher on the NFL's number one run defense. Guy, would

508
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: you imagine being an athletic Nate? I think you are.

509
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 1: Don't be modest? Gravity defined play? Do you guys want

510
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: to see another one? Yeah? David and Joeku, This literally,

511
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: this is the laws of physics gravity. We've got Baker

512
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: hitting his guy and Joeku tight end and he's crowds

513
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: from into the end zone. So it's like he's at

514
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: a whole concert nineteen ninety four. He's wearing flannel, he's

515
00:21:55,760 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: got ripped. Jean Courtney loves a good idea. Where was

516
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: he jumping? But it was clearly no. I love it.

517
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: I love it. David Joku is one of my favorite

518
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: tight ends in the game, and he's freakishly athletics, so

519
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: in his head he's like, I can get there, He's

520
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 1: probably jumped from the seven yard line out to the

521
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: alignment Jac Trader and Kevin Right. Is what they call

522
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: a Madden glitch because that is exactly what that looked for.

523
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: And he had a nice game. He had that touchdown,

524
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: sixty three yards and five catches. Those are some winners.

525
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 1: That's awesome. I'm glad you brought the Browns up because

526
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 1: I want to talk about the Browns as far as

527
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: who won the week, but one guy specifically, and that's

528
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. One thing I do know about Cleveland. It's

529
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 1: easy to put on a jersey. It's easy to accept

530
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: the job. There's easy to collect a check there. Hell

531
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: I did it, um. But the hard thing is to stay,

532
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: to stay and commit, and to stay in and bleed

533
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 1: those colors. I feel like Baker Mayfield is doing that.

534
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: And we have some sound from after the game. Check

535
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: it out. Didn't feel like talking me. I don't know.

536
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: Cleveland goes down to Cincinnati. I don't know. That's just

537
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:04,919
Speaker 1: somebody that was in our locker room asking for us

538
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 1: to play for him and then goes to a different team.

539
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: We played twice a year. Everybody can either spin on it,

540
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: but that's how I feel. Now, I'm not trying to

541
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 1: be too dramatic, okay, but I'm being completely transparent when

542
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: I feel every word that he's saying. I know that

543
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson's a good dude. I know guys that love

544
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 1: playing for him. But he went in there and he

545
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,239
Speaker 1: probably talked to this rookie. Listen, here's the rivalry. This

546
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: is the team that we're gonna beat up on. And

547
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: I believe these colors that you shit too. And Baker

548
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: sitting there as a rookie, soaking up everything, and you

549
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: can tell he takes everything at face value. Whatever you say,

550
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take that. I'm gonna put that in my pocket.

551
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: I'm ana word on my heart. And now Hugh Jackson

552
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 1: left and he bounced and he went to Cincinnati, and

553
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 1: of course he's given all the secrets, all the sauce

554
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: trying to beat Baker Mayfield. And he got in his

555
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 1: films about that. And I'm not mad at Baker Mayfield

556
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: for seeing you and hitting him with the you know what, No,

557
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna bro hug you and act like everything school. No.

558
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 1: It easy is for Baker Mayfield, who has a ton

559
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: of money, has some success who right now could end

560
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 1: the season and we're like, Baker had a good year.

561
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 1: High five. Everybody give him hugs and say he was

562
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,040
Speaker 1: my god, I love him. He's already locked in, he's

563
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 1: already bond it. So for you Cleveland Browns fans, it's

564
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 1: bigger than a touchdowns. Man. Y'all got your quarterback for

565
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: the future, and that boy loves that right there is

566
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: real man. Okay, with the honesty, Hugh Jackson was fired.

567
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: He was fired and took another job. Okay, he got

568
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: guaranteed money. He isn't need to take that job. He's

569
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 1: a Baker. Mayfield left arrival unpaid. College at a big twelve.

570
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: Varriety paid his first year. Talking about the college college,

571
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: do not make the point that it's about being a

572
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 1: rival more than this, it's about hating another team and

573
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 1: be that being instilled. Tree went to Oklahola. Andrew Luck

574
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: absolutely deserves to be in the MVP conversation. He's like

575
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 1: going to be. But the Colts are scoring their most

576
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: points per game since two thousand and four. Now football

577
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: teaches us so much, and Week twelve was no different.

578
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 1: Here's what the Breakfast Table learned from the action in

579
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 1: Week twelve. We always like to put a on the

580
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: week that was for the things that we learned, h

581
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: and every week, who would like to go first, I'll

582
00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: start us off back to you, I'll start us off,

583
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: all right, So, now what I learned is that Baker

584
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:16,719
Speaker 1: Mayfield proved to be the perfect fit for Cleveland. Now,

585
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: if you don't know a story by now, he's a

586
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: walk on a Texas Tech. He transferred to Oklahoma where

587
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 1: he was Big two Offensive Player of the Year, and

588
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 1: then he won the Heisman his senior year. Right, he

589
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 1: went thirty four and six. You remember that he had

590
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: all his teams in the top five every single year.

591
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 1: The point I'm trying to make is wherever he goes,

592
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: he buys in, he locks in, and he makes an

593
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 1: immediate impact. Now as a brand, as a Brown, he's

594
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: done the same thing. He snapped the seventeen game losing street,

595
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 1: eighteen game divisional winless streak. Shall I go on? Okay, Well,

596
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,719
Speaker 1: up until Sunday, they haven't won a road game in

597
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 1: twenty five twenty five games. But that changed. One team

598
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,439
Speaker 1: beat Hugh Jackson's Bengals. Yeah, that's right, I said it,

599
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson. Hugh Jackson and after the game he gave

600
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 1: Hugh a stiff handshake, and I had no problem with that.

601
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,919
Speaker 1: But after the handshake, Baker Mayfield even had some choice

602
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: words about this cold shoulder. She didn't feel like talking me.

603
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 1: I don't know, left Cleveland goes down to Cincinnati. I

604
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: don't know. That's just somebody that was in our locker

605
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: room asking for us to play for him, and then

606
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: goes to a different team we played twice a year.

607
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: Everybody can have their spin on it, but that's how

608
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 1: I feel. Twitter was ablaze yesterday, a lot of conversation.

609
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: Even Baker joined in. Here's the thing. I'm not saying

610
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: that Baker should be upset that Hugh took a job

611
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 1: with the rival. What I am saying is that you

612
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 1: don't have to be upset with him if he don't

613
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: hug it out with him as his ex coach. We

614
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 1: are living in an era of jersey swap and autographs,

615
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: share and hey, yo, how's your family? High five and

616
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 1: hugs after the game. Suns who wrote, if I let

617
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: go of what I am, I become what I might be.

618
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 1: Heart of work. Baker Mayfield don't want to become my

619
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: guy might be good might be This might be that

620
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: being him is what got him here. How he plays,

621
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: how he acts, what he says proves that Bakers for

622
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: the Boys and Bakers for the Browns, Cleveland Browns for

623
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: the first time. You gotta do that. Cares about the

624
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,479
Speaker 1: logo on his helmet, the colors he wears on that jersey,

625
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: in the city that he's playing in. Embrace it because

626
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: he's embracing you. O. Man's good. Rich, It's good, handshake,

627
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:31,919
Speaker 1: really good. We hear the term football is family a

628
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: whole law on our show, but this week I learned

629
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 1: the gravity and the depth of that phrase. Down in Dallas,

630
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are on a special run, three games straight

631
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,719
Speaker 1: and this might end up being a very special season.

632
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 1: They got a rookie wide receiver named Michael Gallop. He's

633
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: one of the most beloved players on the team. He's

634
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: a third rounder out of Colorado State, and he has

635
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: endeared himself to everyone in that locker room, everyone in

636
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: that organization, with hard work, a smile on his face

637
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: every day, and a toughness that has displayed on the

638
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 1: field and off. Gallop had two big rabs in Week

639
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: ten and then in Atlanta in week eleven. He was

640
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 1: on the field for that awesome final drive when Dac

641
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 1: took him down and they made a field goal to

642
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 1: win the game. His life then changed forever. Moments afterwards,

643
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 1: when he got out of the jubilant Cowboys locker room,

644
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: he saw his sister standing there who just had terrible

645
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 1: news for him. Their brother Andrew had just taken his

646
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 1: own life. Gallop stood there, frozen with grief, with his

647
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: sister standing outside a locker room that is celebrating after

648
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 1: the biggest win of the season. And this is where

649
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: the football is family thing takes flight. The Jones family

650
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,679
Speaker 1: finds out about this, and the Cowboys organization intervenes in

651
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: a way that you would only hope your organization would.

652
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 1: They became everything you would ever want a team and

653
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,479
Speaker 1: an employer would be in a situation like that. They

654
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: took over everything for the Gallop family. They made sure

655
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: that Gallop took his time, and Coach Garrett told Michael

656
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 1: Gallop to stay with his family in Georgia for the

657
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: entire week, and on the day of the game, Jerry

658
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 1: Jones sent his private plane to Gallop and said, come

659
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 1: if you want be with us on Thanksgiving play if

660
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: you want no stress, whatever you need, if you want

661
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: to be with your teammates, if you want to play,

662
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: We're here for you. Gallup decided he would take that flight.

663
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: He did play on Thanksgiving. He played well, and in

664
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: a week where he was grieving the loss of his brother,

665
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: he was on the field with his football family in

666
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 1: a huge win two catches, a victory over division rival,

667
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 1: and after the game he got his first game ball

668
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: from Jason Garrett. Check out the scene afterwards. And we

669
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: had a guy who I think demonstrated the mental toughness

670
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: maybe as much as anybody got some really really really

671
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: really difficult news as we came into the locker room

672
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: last week in Atlanta and uh and he came back

673
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: Tuesday night, and I'll tell you what, he's an inspiration.

674
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: I know my brother was up there Watson this and

675
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: he told him, you know, we're gonna play for him.

676
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: You know, I appreciate to you guys, every one of you.

677
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: You know you played, you played hard to night for me,

678
00:29:52,000 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 1: and I really appreciate that. Man. Hey, that's special stuff.

679
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 1: And for all the fantasy football talk and the hot

680
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: takes and everything we do in our football world, sometimes

681
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: reality intervenes and that's where the idea of team family

682
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: and love takes over. Hats off to the Cowboys, Hats

683
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: off to Jason Garrett and Jerry Jones. Hats off to

684
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: those players, but also hats off to Michael Gallup. Football

685
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: is family. I love that story, and I love what

686
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: Michael Gallup it has ahead of him. That's awesome, good

687
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: stuff strikes. Hats off to you for picking that story,

688
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: talk about when you can speak to that. You obviously

689
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: have your support system your family and your friends, but

690
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: when you're on a football team, that's an extra support

691
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: system you have day and DApp Yeah. Sometimes we get

692
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,959
Speaker 1: caught up in the illusion of what the NFL is

693
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 1: and then reality hits as hard than anything. I've been

694
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 1: on teams where people have lost some mothers and fathers

695
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 1: and the world stops. Football takes a second place, as

696
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 1: it should. I will go now. I feel like you

697
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: guys will be so proud of me right now, because

698
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: you guys are always talking about movies and movie references,

699
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 1: and this one's quoting RoboCop and he's talking about Howard

700
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 1: the Duck and you're talking about the Godfather, and I'm like,

701
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 1: poo choo, poo it's all going over my head with

702
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,719
Speaker 1: these quotes. I have seen three movies in a month. Yes,

703
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: I saw Bohemia Rhapsody with you guys. I saw Creed three,

704
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: I saw A Star Is Born. Actually, no, I saw

705
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: four movies this month, because check out the latest one

706
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:24,719
Speaker 1: that hit theaters. All their lives, they've been unnoticed, undersized, unproven,

707
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 1: then undrafted, now the unstopped. I don't tell a whole book.

708
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 1: He took a fife, touch goo ju them, he said,

709
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: the fire he rubbles in touch. Such a season from

710
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: the team that brought you blunt objects, the laguerret story.

711
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 1: Touch a tale about running backs and might none have

712
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: heard their name? Undraft name? Now see their name in

713
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: the lights the game Philipp Josh Adams, Undrafted Coming Yo.

714
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: It was a great movie. It wasn't even as pretty good,

715
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: which is what you say every movie is. It was great,

716
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: It was awesome. Week twelve was the week of undrafted

717
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: rookie running backs. Philip Lindsay, Josh Adams, Gus Edwards, Gus

718
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 1: the Bus. Three guys who've worked their way up, trying

719
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: to make a practice squad of situation the best that

720
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 1: they could. And they went from that to become something

721
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: of the top rushing threats in the league. Let's break

722
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 1: it down here, and let's start with Philip Lindsay who

723
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 1: called t D and said, can I wear your number

724
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: when you look like this? Yeah? You can. Undrafted signs

725
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: with the Broncos back in mate. Now he is top

726
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: ten in the league in both rushing arts and touchdowns

727
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: on pace to break the single season rushing record by

728
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: and undrafted. Then there's Eagles back Josh Adams undrafted on

729
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: k Adams waiverless on Good Morning Football, signs to the

730
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: practice squad, then joined the roster after Week two. He's

731
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: rushed for two touchdowns in two weeks, exploding in the

732
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 1: second half of the Giants game with eighty yards and

733
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: a score. Finally, the new guy comes out of nowhere.

734
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: Gus the bus Johnson handling front. I'm sorry, I just

735
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 1: I got the bus and that's all I was thinking about.

736
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 1: He's from Staten Island, which is sort of rare for

737
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 1: football players to come out of there. He went undrafted

738
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: Ravens practice squad. He debuts in Week six, and over

739
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: the last two weeks he's put up more than one

740
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: hundred yards a game. He got on the end zone.

741
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: Alice Conswell isn't even out there and he ran angry

742
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: like a bus running stuff over. He missed, he forced

743
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: fifteen miss tackles Kyle fifteen. There is there's only eleven players,

744
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: dare I say it a new bus in the Amburgh.

745
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 1: And it's not even just undrafted rookies who had a

746
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 1: big week either, just undrafted dudes in general. Brita has

747
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: been doing this thing. Robert Forrester, JC Jackson, all these guys,

748
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 1: Drew Breeze, an undrafted guy doing his thing out there,

749
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 1: putting in the work and it's starting to show just

750
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 1: at the right time this season. But pretty crazy that

751
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:12,240
Speaker 1: those three undrafted rookies have themselves a day in weeks twelve.

752
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,720
Speaker 1: It's incredible, great movie. We got to hear from Jerome

753
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: Battiss about the busy I love. I want to hear

754
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: from him. Hall of Famer buses on Twitter, everybody, that's incredible.

755
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: M kirk Cousins was also incredible the other night. He

756
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 1: had a great, great game and beat the Packers and

757
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 1: left Vikings fans in no way disappointed, excited about the investment.

758
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: And it was really good. On yesterday on the show

759
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 1: Cousins really lived up to it, but he let me

760
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 1: down personally in a personal emotional way that I'm gonna

761
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: have a hard time getting over. But because I've sat

762
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: here at this table and we've gone through every end zone,

763
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 1: nay and whip and everything's dragon Ball this and and

764
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 1: Fortnite that, and the Vikings, to their credit, busted out

765
00:34:55,480 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 1: a vintage classic called the limbo Stick anyway as great

766
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,359
Speaker 1: as the Vikings have made their mark with celebrations over

767
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: two years. And Dalvin Cook gets in and as you see,

768
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: the team starts to convene and execu excited Dalvins. Where

769
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: the hell is Kirk Cousins in this Where is Kirk Cousins?

770
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: Every person who was born before nineteen Look? He runs

771
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 1: up and he said that, nah, freeze it right there. Unacceptable, Kirk.

772
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: Every person born before nineteen eighty in this planet wanted

773
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 1: you to limbo stick because they don't know what Anne

774
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: is and they don't know dragon Ball. Squat Kirk walked

775
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: up and it didn't have the nerve. And for every

776
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: dad in this country who is limboed a little bit,

777
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: he let him down. And you might say, why did

778
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: he do that? Well, some fantastic reporter after the game said, Kirk,

779
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 1: the limbo stick was right there. Why didn't you do it?

780
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 1: You know, honestly that one I said, I'm good. I'm

781
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 1: gonna stay on this one. I'll let you guys do it.

782
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 1: You're doing it pretty well. I didn't know where I

783
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 1: was gonna fit in either. Unacceptable. You have a duty

784
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,080
Speaker 1: as the leader of the team to get them in

785
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 1: the end zone. And you have a leader of the

786
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: Dad revolution in this country. You like the food fighters,

787
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,959
Speaker 1: you like Born movies. You got an apron that says

788
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,399
Speaker 1: license to grill. You dropped the family off to get

789
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: a table while you parked the car. You get to

790
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 1: the airport three hours early four for domestic and you

791
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: do the pleep in limbo. I don't know if he's

792
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 1: waiting for the chat shot Shaw or the electric slide anything. Conga.

793
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 1: That was the moment. I'll tell you something. You might say, well,

794
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:27,919
Speaker 1: I'm the quarter, I'm a QB one, I'm a faith

795
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 1: no case keenan. At this moment last year they decided

796
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 1: to go freeze tag and Case not only did it,

797
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: he committed so hard to it and I respect it.

798
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: He committed so long The team ran up and fired

799
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: him and replace him the Kirk cousins. But I respect

800
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 1: that case. Keenan said this is going to be my moment,

801
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 1: and this was because he's still standing there doing a

802
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: freeze tag in the end zone. Is such a missed

803
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 1: opportunity for what Kirk does. It is so disappointed for me.

804
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 1: The limbo we can do. And guys, I'm a man

805
00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,280
Speaker 1: of action. I try to be an example for my children.

806
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: I'm a add There's a few other dads at the table.

807
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 1: So why don't we instead of just me screaming at Kirk,

808
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 1: why don't we show how easy it could have been?

809
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 1: Back up the talk. Let's let's log log. Come on,

810
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,240
Speaker 1: do we have a broom or what? Oh? We got Nates.

811
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 1: We got Nates. Nate's gonna be our limbo slice. Let's

812
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: do it. Adam feeling it. You're not lifting me on

813
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 1: the show that Kirk raised his game but lowered the bar. Right,

814
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 1: trust back, give me the dollar shoes and Adams activate there,

815
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:45,919
Speaker 1: still holding Kirk, still holding, now still holding Kirk. Next week,

816
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,919
Speaker 1: we need a sequel. Great job with the limbo, great

817
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 1: job for real. They used to come back. I do

818
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 1: the weekends. How is it. The world needs more Kirk

819
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 1: Cousins dancing, even though he's still feeling the trum metazing

820
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 1: effects if you will, of his dead arm dance. Either way,

821
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: We're almost at the end of the regular season, which

822
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: means the playoff picture is getting clearer and clearer. However,

823
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 1: the wild card race is anything but clear. Here's what

824
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,240
Speaker 1: the GMFB crew had to say about the wildcard picture.

825
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: In each conference, we're looking at the playoff picture, and

826
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 1: as things get closer and closer to Week seventeen, in

827
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: the wildcard round, we have these two areas. We have

828
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 1: the two wildcard teams, and then we have the teams

829
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: in the Hunt. All right, we love the inns section,

830
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 1: and there are four quality teams in the Hunt, and

831
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 1: there are two quality teams in the wild Card. Let's

832
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 1: have a little game. We're gonna call this the wild

833
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 1: Card roundup game. Okay, I've got all the stuff here

834
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: at the breakfast bar. Why don't we have a little

835
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 1: breakfast debate. I'd like to say three different categories. You

836
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 1: guys tell me which team you think is the right

837
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: answer for each. Let's start off right, first round, Okay, first,

838
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: the one I always by very first question, which one

839
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 1: of these NFC wild carfuls. Would you least want to

840
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: see in the playoffs if you're one of those top seeds. Okay,

841
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 1: who's the scariest team in the hunt? Were wild? Jump right,

842
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 1: and I'm going with the Panthers. Wow, keeping the drinking already.

843
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: I'm going with the Panthers because I know they came

844
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 1: off with them three tough losses, right that the Lions

845
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,839
Speaker 1: and sails Seahawks. But when you look at him, he's

846
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 1: playing at the most efficient level he's played at in

847
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,319
Speaker 1: his career um career high completion percentage and passer rating,

848
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 1: which means all those questions about Cam Cam stick in

849
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: a pocket and be a pure passer, yes he can.

850
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: But most importantly though, that guy that he just handed

851
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 1: fake handed the ball off to, Yeah, that was the

852
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. Nine touchdowns in the last five games. So

853
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: you look at the type of players that he's playing with,

854
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: Camp can lights you up in the air and on

855
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,439
Speaker 1: the ground. Christ McCaffrey's a beast. Oh when they still

856
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 1: got Luke Keikiley on three straight losses and losses, I

857
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 1: don't know who I was going to pick. And then

858
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 1: you made that case about the Panthers. And this is

859
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 1: like the quintessential bargument at the thing next you use

860
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: spit some take and I'm like, who whoa wa, whoa brow.

861
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,879
Speaker 1: They lost to this team, and they were up the

862
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: entire time. Christian McCaffrey had the game of his life,

863
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 1: and yet somehow Russell Wilson still pulls it out. They

864
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 1: have a top ten defense. He's done it too many times.

865
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: I do not want to see him in the playoffs.

866
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: I don't either. That's a scary man. But Peter, if

867
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 1: you're asking us to look forward to the playoffs, which

868
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 1: team do we not want to see there in January?

869
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,959
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this team, and I'll tell you why.

870
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 1: Because if this team is there and you're giving me that,

871
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: that imply that means that they beat Washington this weekend.

872
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 1: They beat Dallas, they probably beat the Rams, they probably

873
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 1: beat the Texans. And I know I'm not jumping on

874
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:43,439
Speaker 1: the table for this team at all. I'm not gonna

875
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: be asked Philadelphia. You know, Peter, how dare you? I'm

876
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: always pythonic about this right now? You know, in the

877
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: movie Flatliners, where they're trying to get keeper with the paddles,

878
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: that's the Eagles, But if they are in the playoffs,

879
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,360
Speaker 1: it's they turned it the hell on. You do not

880
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:56,799
Speaker 1: want to see him, You're right, it means they would

881
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 1: be coming in hot. Next question, let's do another one here.

882
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: Which NFL head coach? We've got some Super Bowl champion

883
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 1: head coaches in those six teams. Which head coach would

884
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 1: you least like seeing lining up against you if you

885
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 1: were one of these teams who are already in the playoffs,

886
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 1: you're gonna ask which head coach we don't have a

887
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 1: beer with. Okay, that's question too, and this is my

888
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: answer for both. Pete Carroll, I'm gonna say this right now.

889
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: I think right now, we're in the middle of Pete

890
00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 1: Carroll's greatest coaching performance of his career. Going back to John, David, Booty, Peter,

891
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 1: you can name it. This was the gap year for

892
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,879
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks. The band broke up, everybody graduated. This

893
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 1: is the dad saying, no, get off your butt, go

894
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: out and get a job. He brings Russ with him,

895
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: he brings Wagner with him. I don't want to see Pete.

896
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 1: He's got a ring on his finger. He should have

897
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 1: had two, but that's my guy. Here's a couple of

898
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 1: these guys I don't want to see if hold On

899
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: don't want to see him, don't want to see him.

900
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 1: But I will go with Riverboat Roun. Yeah, that's the

901
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,279
Speaker 1: beer one too, because I feel like he's my beer

902
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,759
Speaker 1: one two. He's won an NFC championship game. He's sort

903
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 1: of been there and done that. He takes risks, he

904
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 1: goes for it, and his T shirt game is on points.

905
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 1: So what is not to like about Riverboat Ron? I like,

906
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 1: let's have the experience that the experience in a risk

907
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 1: taker is bold. He goes for it. All right. Speaking

908
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,240
Speaker 1: of experience, I'm going with a coach that was scorned

909
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 1: last year by the experience of not making it to

910
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. I'm going on like Zims in Minnesota,

911
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 1: all right, go on, and the playoffs are all about

912
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 1: what it's all about, great quarterback play and running the

913
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,400
Speaker 1: ball and passing. They got to talk defense even after

914
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: the struggles this year. Look at those glasses, man, you

915
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 1: want a guy that can see everything. He could see

916
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 1: everything on the field with those glasses. Shout out to

917
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 1: my guy, Zims. But here's the thing. Five straight quarterbacks

918
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 1: under two hundred yards. That's including Breeze, that's including Rogers.

919
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at Zimmer. The playoffs is all about

920
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 1: great quarterbacks, right, you want a defense that can get

921
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: after those quarterbacks. I'm going with Zim's baby Minnesota. I'd

922
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 1: want him there and be like, what's the Minnesota Vikings

923
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,319
Speaker 1: held Drew Brees to one hundred and twenty passing yards

924
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,760
Speaker 1: the Saints one. But that is a number that stuck

925
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: out Peter. Last one here, last one here, last week.

926
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 1: All of these NFC Wildcard hopefuls, last call? Can we Semisnic?

927
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:02,800
Speaker 1: You don't have to kind of cast here, which player

928
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 1: of all these scary who's the one NFC Wildcard hopeful

929
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:11,440
Speaker 1: team player that you think is Alga Russell Wilson on

930
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 1: the first Yeah, I Meanga Russell Wilson. I feel like

931
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 1: he's mister game winning drive. He's the same reason I

932
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: don't want to see these guys in the playoffs. He's

933
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 1: somehow getting it done. Tyler Lockett has eight touchdowns this season.

934
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 1: He has three games without scoring. It's unbelievable what they're doing.

935
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 1: They've got a run game, they've got a defense. It's

936
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: all we've ever wanted for Russell Wilson. So yeah, he's

937
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,840
Speaker 1: been in five career playoff appearances and he's led at

938
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: least one game winning drive in the fourth quarter in

939
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: that time, which is insane. I'm a double down. I'm

940
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: going to Russell Wilson as well. One of the most

941
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: athletic quarterbacks, and because he's such a pure passer in

942
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,879
Speaker 1: the pocket, we don't give him credit for what he does,

943
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: and the fact that he does have a running game

944
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: to play action fake He's one of the best quarterbacks

945
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 1: when it comes to him play action outside of the pocket,

946
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,439
Speaker 1: so his efficiency is at a different level. The fact

947
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:56,880
Speaker 1: that he can go out there delivered the ball to

948
00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: his wide receivers and then lean on a running game

949
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,400
Speaker 1: for the first time since Sean Lynch left, this is

950
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 1: something different. Man. If you really pay attention to what

951
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,279
Speaker 1: he's doing, Russell Wilson, just like you said a segment ago,

952
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 1: could be having the best season of his career for us.

953
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: You come around. I think if you're a single gentleman

954
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 1: a bar trying to meet a nice young lady, the

955
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 1: person you do not want to walk in the bar

956
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,799
Speaker 1: is the quarterback of this team. Right here. I will

957
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,880
Speaker 1: say this over and over again. Cam Newton, at the

958
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 1: height of his powers is the most dangerous, most powerful

959
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,080
Speaker 1: player in all of the National Football League. And I'm

960
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 1: gonna go through in the schedule too. If Cam's gonna

961
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 1: get in, you gotta beat the Saints at least once.

962
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: You got him twice. Maybe you get lucky beating the

963
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 1: week seventeen, but I'm gonna go Cam. He brings McCaffrey

964
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,320
Speaker 1: as his winger. Couldn't get better than that. Cam Newton

965
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:43,320
Speaker 1: most powerful player in sports when he's on his game, Russ, Cam,

966
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,479
Speaker 1: I gotta play for one guys. If you let this

967
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 1: guy in, do not sleep right. You cannot let this

968
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,439
Speaker 1: guy Aaron Rodgers. No one put Aaron Rodgers on the list,

969
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: not this year. Peter has been standing in that line

970
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: for eleven weeks. We're waiting for him to come in.

971
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 1: I think he left his idea at home, not getting

972
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 1: in the club. Let's focus on the players, all right,

973
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,120
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna ask you guys each your question, and

974
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: you've got paddles in your hand. Person, I'll start with you,

975
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 1: which offensive player out of all of those teams? If

976
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,040
Speaker 1: you were one of the teams that are in the playoffs,

977
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 1: would you be most scared to see on the other

978
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 1: side of the field. I'm looking at a guy. If

979
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 1: he catches his rhythm, he gets a hold of this playbook,

980
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:25,840
Speaker 1: he can put up astronomical. Now, God Lamar Jackson, because

981
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,120
Speaker 1: the type of rhythm that he's catching right now, I

982
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 1: know he's not playing perfect football, but the fact that

983
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,879
Speaker 1: he can control the ground with his legs and then

984
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,760
Speaker 1: deliver the ball downfield, I mean, we're starting to see

985
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 1: just bits and pieces of what he really can do

986
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 1: within his offense. Just check out this player right here,

987
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:41,920
Speaker 1: a small little playfak He goes around left and he's

988
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:43,880
Speaker 1: just as fast as anybody, and sometimes he's the fastest

989
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 1: guy on the field. And this is what people don't see.

990
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: After the games. We'll show the highlights, and of course

991
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna show the runs because that's tantalizing. But what

992
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 1: we don't show enough is the pass plays, the clutch plays,

993
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: and once he gets more comfortable throwing the ball, like

994
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 1: we're seeing right here, we're gonna see this guy put

995
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: up amazing start to separate himself. The Redskins were three

996
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 1: and six a few years ago. Griffin started getting a

997
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 1: couple of wins and the Redskins went on this role

998
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 1: and I was like, how do you stop the red

999
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 1: I almost feel like this rookie quarterback has been a

1000
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,360
Speaker 1: spark plug for the Ravens and the way CJ was

1001
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,840
Speaker 1: just talking, yes, getting going right? Now, Okay, who do

1002
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,760
Speaker 1: you got offensive player out of those six teams? Sorry?

1003
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 1: I need some space, Okay, you need space space. Oh,

1004
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,880
Speaker 1: I'll go with Andrew luck is my offensive guy because

1005
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 1: he's gone. I just had to count. I had to

1006
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,319
Speaker 1: look it up because this look. Can't believe it's true.

1007
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:31,799
Speaker 1: Eight straight games with three or more touchdowns and he's

1008
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 1: got a couple of four touchdown games sprinkled in there

1009
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 1: as well. What he's doing is so incredible Anna as

1010
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 1: a comeback Player of the Year situation, he's so good

1011
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,880
Speaker 1: that Levi on Bell is already talking about how he

1012
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 1: wants to join Andrew Lacks here. That's how scary he is. Yeah,

1013
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 1: I'm on the same page with you. But you know,

1014
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: like when when Sandra Bullock was floating in space as

1015
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 1: the astronaut, she was only as good as the help

1016
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,600
Speaker 1: she had. Clooney was hugely instrumental in her survival. True,

1017
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,319
Speaker 1: I can't believe I'm gonna say this guy, But I'm

1018
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 1: gonna say, Eric Ebron, I'm gonna say this player, you're

1019
00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 1: scared most scared because he makes luck luck, and he

1020
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 1: makes luck in the red zone without Ibron, who, by

1021
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,040
Speaker 1: the way, is on track to break Rob Gronkowski's single

1022
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 1: season touchdown record for Titans. Crazy. So I think we

1023
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 1: talked about rich and his backdown luck and I know

1024
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:17,759
Speaker 1: we're talking about a Colts tight end and Peter's rolling

1025
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:19,239
Speaker 1: his eyes. I know it. No, No, I love good

1026
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 1: Dallas Clark fit, and I love Colt Hello, Hawky's the best.

1027
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 1: But I think that Ebron has been the key for

1028
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 1: luck and he's he makes luck dangerous. So that scares me.

1029
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna double down on you. Kyle. Okay, we did

1030
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,879
Speaker 1: offensive players of all those teams and we could see

1031
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: the graphic. Maybe one more time. We've got the Chargers,

1032
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 1: the Ravens, the Titans, the Broncos, the Cult. Which defensive

1033
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 1: player would you be most scared to go up against

1034
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: in a playoff game? I gotta go with my guy,

1035
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta go with it with a Belton

1036
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 1: Bolt right here from the Ohio State University. Is brother

1037
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,360
Speaker 1: just hired an agent, So he's coming to Joey Bosa.

1038
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 1: We talked about it in a million times. The fact

1039
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,799
Speaker 1: is the guy didn't play a football game for about

1040
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: ten months, had one warm up week and came back

1041
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 1: and had two sacks. And and I know it's against

1042
00:47:58,160 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen, but when I saw Bosa come out of

1043
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:02,440
Speaker 1: the two sacks last week, I picture them against Brady

1044
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 1: or Roethlisberger or Mahomes or anybody in the AFC. This

1045
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 1: dude scares me because he's still not even all the

1046
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:11,359
Speaker 1: way back yet two sacks already. Nightmares, Tom Brady. Von

1047
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 1: Miller's given you nightmares. Cam Newton, you lost the Super

1048
00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 1: Bowl to this guy. He was an Super Bowl MVP.

1049
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: He now is sacks in six straight games. I'm going

1050
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 1: with this guy, von Miller. Sorry, Bosa and that b

1051
00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 1: Roll move over for von Miller. That's my choice in

1052
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,239
Speaker 1: this because he's been there, he's done that, and I

1053
00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:31,839
Speaker 1: don't want to see him anywhere near a field offend.

1054
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 1: It's crazy that von Miller hasn't been to the playoffs

1055
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:37,359
Speaker 1: since he was Super Bowl MVP. Peyton retired and if

1056
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 1: they get hot, Kay, You're right, he might be the

1057
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:41,279
Speaker 1: forget defensive player the one single player. You don't want

1058
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 1: to say, Burlis and take us home. I'm gonna keep it.

1059
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,080
Speaker 1: Who's the defensive player you at least want to see.

1060
00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it very recent. And then CJ Mosley,

1061
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:48,800
Speaker 1: he's just on the show, and there was something about

1062
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 1: him when he was talking to us, very calm, very collected,

1063
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 1: almost like he understood that the fate is in our hands,

1064
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: Like we're not gonna sit there and clock watch and

1065
00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:58,879
Speaker 1: watch and wait for other teams to lose. We're gonna

1066
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,759
Speaker 1: try to control on this. And when talking about being

1067
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 1: defensive player to the year, he said, it's not necessarily

1068
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,239
Speaker 1: all about the numbers. It's all about making other guys

1069
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 1: job easier. So when we see other guys make plays

1070
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:13,359
Speaker 1: on this team, interceptions, big hits, and guys becoming free

1071
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,840
Speaker 1: and picking up fumbles, you know who's always in the

1072
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,839
Speaker 1: midst of it. CJ always there. So shout out to CJ.

1073
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:21,759
Speaker 1: He's one of those individuals that we might not see

1074
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 1: on the stabboard, but quarterbacks always worry about when the

1075
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:28,240
Speaker 1: game platform. He's a star. Yeah, he is a start.

1076
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 1: We love astronomy. He likes Saturn, get a ring. I

1077
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:38,840
Speaker 1: really sitting here was thinking, how do I put the

1078
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,959
Speaker 1: rings of Saturn with the rings of the Super Bowl.

1079
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 1: You did it, my friend, You did awesome stuff. We'll

1080
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:48,080
Speaker 1: do this throughout the week, and as the playoffs progress,

1081
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 1: will continue to update our answers on shore. All right,
