And you know 34 00:01:35,988 --> 00:01:37,188 Speaker 6: I take four responsibility. 35 00:01:37,268 --> 00:01:39,588 Speaker 7: Do you expect to be the coach here tomorrow? 36 00:01:40,188 --> 00:01:40,748 Speaker 2: I don't know that. 37 00:01:41,268 --> 00:01:42,308 Speaker 1: Do you do you think you should be? 38 00:01:42,868 --> 00:01:43,188 Speaker 8: Yes? 39 00:01:43,508 --> 00:01:43,708 Speaker 5: Why? 40 00:01:44,348 --> 00:01:46,108 Speaker 6: I know they will have down here for three years, 41 00:01:46,148 --> 00:01:48,388 Speaker 6: and I know what I put into this, and you know, 42 00:01:48,428 --> 00:01:50,868 Speaker 6: I know that we're capable of going. I know the 43 00:01:50,908 --> 00:01:52,628 Speaker 6: top shows that I am. I believe myself. 44 00:01:52,828 --> 00:01:55,708 Speaker 1: What could you have done differently in preparation you get 45 00:01:55,708 --> 00:01:58,828 Speaker 1: these guys better prepared to play tonight everything. 46 00:01:58,948 --> 00:02:00,988 Speaker 6: I didn't do anything well enough to get us ready 47 00:02:01,028 --> 00:02:01,548 Speaker 6: to play tonight. 48 00:02:01,748 --> 00:02:03,908 Speaker 1: And so if that's the case, and why why should 49 00:02:03,908 --> 00:02:05,588 Speaker 1: you be the coach? Games? 50 00:02:05,628 --> 00:02:07,708 Speaker 6: Games like this, Games like this happened in the NFL 51 00:02:07,868 --> 00:02:10,908 Speaker 6: to every coach that's ever coached in this league. You 52 00:02:10,908 --> 00:02:13,588 Speaker 6: can look at any great coach that's ever coached in 53 00:02:13,628 --> 00:02:16,548 Speaker 6: the league. Sometimes games like this happen, So this is 54 00:02:16,588 --> 00:02:19,028 Speaker 6: not like a normal occurrent. No, tonight was not a 55 00:02:19,068 --> 00:02:22,148 Speaker 6: normal occurrency, although everything that could have gone wrong in 56 00:02:22,188 --> 00:02:23,508 Speaker 6: all three phases went wrong. 57 00:02:24,388 --> 00:02:25,908 Speaker 2: All right, Well, that was a really tough game in 58 00:02:25,988 --> 00:02:28,548 Speaker 2: a tough press conference there for Brandon Saley. Now welcoming 59 00:02:28,588 --> 00:02:30,348 Speaker 2: in our NFL insider Tom Pellisero. 60 00:02:30,748 --> 00:02:33,028 Speaker 3: Tom, what does the future. 61 00:02:32,668 --> 00:02:35,388 Speaker 2: Look like for Brandon Saley after what we saw last night? 62 00:02:35,828 --> 00:02:35,988 Speaker 5: Well? 63 00:02:36,028 --> 00:02:37,988 Speaker 9: Sure, I think that a lot of times when you're 64 00:02:37,988 --> 00:02:41,508 Speaker 9: evaluating when a team might make a potential coaching change, 65 00:02:41,548 --> 00:02:44,668 Speaker 9: you look at what they've done historically. The Chargers have 66 00:02:44,788 --> 00:02:48,468 Speaker 9: not fired a coach in season since nineteen ninety eight, 67 00:02:48,508 --> 00:02:51,748 Speaker 9: when they dismissed Kevin Gilbride in favor of June Jones 68 00:02:51,828 --> 00:02:55,468 Speaker 9: during Ryan Leaf's rookie season. They have in the past 69 00:02:55,868 --> 00:02:59,948 Speaker 9: allowed their coaches to finish out the season. Obviously, Brandon 70 00:02:59,948 --> 00:03:02,748 Speaker 9: Staley got the Chargers to the playoffs a year ago. 71 00:03:02,948 --> 00:03:06,348 Speaker 9: He has dealt with of aety of challenges, including injuries, 72 00:03:06,548 --> 00:03:09,588 Speaker 9: during his time there. Last night played without Justin Herbert 73 00:03:09,828 --> 00:03:12,468 Speaker 9: Keenan Allen, and Joey botso really hasn't played over the 74 00:03:12,508 --> 00:03:15,668 Speaker 9: past couple of years. However, when you have a loss 75 00:03:15,828 --> 00:03:20,188 Speaker 9: like this on national TV, a historic type of loss 76 00:03:20,188 --> 00:03:23,108 Speaker 9: with the Raiders putting up a franchise record for points, 77 00:03:23,508 --> 00:03:26,268 Speaker 9: those are the types of things that sometimes can cause 78 00:03:26,308 --> 00:03:29,948 Speaker 9: a team to change course. So certainly we'll be monitoring 79 00:03:29,948 --> 00:03:33,308 Speaker 9: the status of Brandon Staley in the days and weeks ahead. 80 00:03:33,628 --> 00:03:36,508 Speaker 9: We'll see to answer the reporter's question whether the Chargers 81 00:03:36,588 --> 00:03:39,348 Speaker 9: go against what they've done historically and make a move. 82 00:03:39,348 --> 00:03:41,028 Speaker 1: With three games to Gorey, that. 83 00:03:41,028 --> 00:03:43,508 Speaker 2: Front office might also be asking why he deserves to 84 00:03:43,548 --> 00:03:45,268 Speaker 2: be there. Tom, We really appreciate the time. 85 00:03:45,308 --> 00:03:45,628 Speaker 1: Thank you. 86 00:03:45,788 --> 00:03:48,348 Speaker 2: All right, there is a lot to unpack, obviously, sand 87 00:03:48,388 --> 00:03:50,668 Speaker 2: at the Charger side of this here, but Peter, for you, 88 00:03:50,788 --> 00:03:53,748 Speaker 2: what stands out the most in this blowout win? 89 00:03:54,108 --> 00:03:56,108 Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, I look at Antonio Pierce and the 90 00:03:56,188 --> 00:03:58,908 Speaker 8: team got shut out last week and it was like, well, 91 00:03:59,028 --> 00:04:01,988 Speaker 8: it was a nice story, but let's talk about a 92 00:04:02,028 --> 00:04:04,708 Speaker 8: real coaching search when this thing is done. To go 93 00:04:04,748 --> 00:04:06,868 Speaker 8: out and have his guys four days later come out 94 00:04:06,868 --> 00:04:09,308 Speaker 8: and do this on the same field, just you know, 95 00:04:09,908 --> 00:04:12,108 Speaker 8: less than a week after getting shut out, It was unbelievable. 96 00:04:12,148 --> 00:04:14,868 Speaker 8: I look at this Raiders team, and I look at 97 00:04:14,908 --> 00:04:16,748 Speaker 8: them what they're looking at as far as the next 98 00:04:16,788 --> 00:04:18,868 Speaker 8: few months ago, and do you want to blow this 99 00:04:18,908 --> 00:04:20,508 Speaker 8: whole thing up? Do you want to bring in another 100 00:04:20,548 --> 00:04:22,988 Speaker 8: GM or is Antonio Pierce going to be the. 101 00:04:22,948 --> 00:04:23,948 Speaker 5: Guy who can do this? 102 00:04:24,188 --> 00:04:26,148 Speaker 8: As we show the highlights of that Raiders win, you 103 00:04:26,188 --> 00:04:30,708 Speaker 8: have to understand this team was completely defeated. Like in 104 00:04:30,748 --> 00:04:34,708 Speaker 8: the locker room, DeVante Adams is answering questions about the 105 00:04:34,748 --> 00:04:37,548 Speaker 8: offense and was O'Connell gonna be able to even start it? 106 00:04:38,028 --> 00:04:39,508 Speaker 8: And they just be able to turn the switch on. 107 00:04:39,548 --> 00:04:43,308 Speaker 8: Now it's been purported, I'll go another level with this. 108 00:04:44,028 --> 00:04:45,748 Speaker 5: Tonio Pierce's leaning on a lot of guys. He's also 109 00:04:45,788 --> 00:04:47,388 Speaker 5: brought a lot of ex coaches. 110 00:04:47,028 --> 00:04:50,588 Speaker 8: In, Like they've had gentlemen like Adam Gase in the building, 111 00:04:50,588 --> 00:04:52,548 Speaker 8: who's a former head coach who's like, let me be 112 00:04:52,628 --> 00:04:54,108 Speaker 8: around and let me help you and let's see how 113 00:04:54,108 --> 00:04:57,148 Speaker 8: we can do is Tom Claughlin has spoken with Pierce extensively. 114 00:04:57,508 --> 00:04:58,948 Speaker 5: This is not a flash in the pen. 115 00:04:59,228 --> 00:05:00,908 Speaker 8: And as much as we're going to talk about Staley 116 00:05:00,948 --> 00:05:03,508 Speaker 8: and whether he's getting fired and whether I think Antonio 117 00:05:03,548 --> 00:05:06,468 Speaker 8: Pierce may it even lie outer statement than Staley. Stanley's 118 00:05:06,508 --> 00:05:08,388 Speaker 8: thing might have been a formality. At this point the 119 00:05:08,428 --> 00:05:09,308 Speaker 8: season was lost. 120 00:05:09,308 --> 00:05:09,988 Speaker 7: It's done. 121 00:05:10,548 --> 00:05:12,948 Speaker 8: Pierce might have put a stick in the ground and said, hey, 122 00:05:13,028 --> 00:05:14,948 Speaker 8: I'm I'm actually not just an interim coach. 123 00:05:15,108 --> 00:05:16,628 Speaker 5: I'm a guy you really have to consider. Look how 124 00:05:16,668 --> 00:05:17,668 Speaker 5: these players respond to me. 125 00:05:18,188 --> 00:05:20,668 Speaker 8: And as the weeks go by, to show that, hey, 126 00:05:20,668 --> 00:05:22,228 Speaker 8: we could come from adversity, come from a. 127 00:05:22,148 --> 00:05:24,148 Speaker 5: Three nothing loss to do what we did last night. 128 00:05:24,148 --> 00:05:24,868 Speaker 5: It's pretty awesome. 129 00:05:24,868 --> 00:05:26,948 Speaker 8: Real quick on Staley as much as we want to, 130 00:05:27,028 --> 00:05:29,268 Speaker 8: you know, pell Sero is great and says they didn't 131 00:05:29,308 --> 00:05:31,668 Speaker 8: have Keenan Allen, they didn't have just Herbert, didn't have 132 00:05:31,708 --> 00:05:34,108 Speaker 8: Khalil Mack, they didn have Derwin James did have Austin 133 00:05:34,148 --> 00:05:34,908 Speaker 8: Eckler defense. 134 00:05:35,508 --> 00:05:37,348 Speaker 5: That defense gave up sixty three points. Some of those 135 00:05:37,348 --> 00:05:38,588 Speaker 5: were pick sixes that we know, but. 136 00:05:38,508 --> 00:05:43,628 Speaker 8: Like an unbelievable loss on national television, very hard to bounce. 137 00:05:43,508 --> 00:05:43,908 Speaker 5: Back from that. 138 00:05:44,068 --> 00:05:45,868 Speaker 4: Yeah, this to rob me of the movie in Vegas 139 00:05:45,948 --> 00:05:48,868 Speaker 4: Vacation when Clark takes a feeding out there. I haven't 140 00:05:48,868 --> 00:05:50,788 Speaker 4: seen a being like that, And you guys can go 141 00:05:50,948 --> 00:05:54,468 Speaker 4: look up the rest of that. Since somebody turns something loose. 142 00:05:54,468 --> 00:05:57,148 Speaker 4: But this was a complete demolishment by the Raiders of 143 00:05:57,188 --> 00:05:57,708 Speaker 4: the Charters. 144 00:05:57,708 --> 00:05:59,868 Speaker 7: And I might have just made up a word abolish. 145 00:06:00,028 --> 00:06:02,548 Speaker 1: I didn't want to put you off. 146 00:06:03,468 --> 00:06:03,748 Speaker 7: Right now. 147 00:06:04,108 --> 00:06:06,708 Speaker 4: Like when you look at what the Raiders did last week, 148 00:06:06,988 --> 00:06:08,868 Speaker 4: and the players all talked about we keep walking in 149 00:06:08,908 --> 00:06:11,268 Speaker 4: the locker room after putting a donut up there, and 150 00:06:11,308 --> 00:06:12,748 Speaker 4: it was like, man, this is awful, and I think 151 00:06:12,788 --> 00:06:15,108 Speaker 4: ap leaning on him like this is a feeldless like 152 00:06:15,228 --> 00:06:15,788 Speaker 4: embrace this. 153 00:06:16,388 --> 00:06:18,188 Speaker 7: The next week he told the players, we're. 154 00:06:18,028 --> 00:06:20,308 Speaker 4: Going straight gas pedal, even even though we're up forty 155 00:06:20,308 --> 00:06:21,668 Speaker 4: two another and a half time gas pedal. 156 00:06:21,708 --> 00:06:23,348 Speaker 7: I want to score as many points back option. 157 00:06:23,708 --> 00:06:27,148 Speaker 4: And like when the players you're always playing for each other, 158 00:06:27,188 --> 00:06:28,868 Speaker 4: but when your coach all of a sudden just kind 159 00:06:28,908 --> 00:06:29,948 Speaker 4: of like empowers you. 160 00:06:30,268 --> 00:06:32,268 Speaker 7: I think we're seeing the product of all that. 161 00:06:32,708 --> 00:06:34,348 Speaker 4: Not only that, not only is he doing this with 162 00:06:34,388 --> 00:06:36,268 Speaker 4: ay know Connell, but I just kind of feel like 163 00:06:36,428 --> 00:06:38,708 Speaker 4: there's a couple of players that maybe exercise some demons 164 00:06:38,748 --> 00:06:41,148 Speaker 4: in that game last night. All right, Jack Jones with 165 00:06:41,188 --> 00:06:43,828 Speaker 4: the unbelievable post drive and that's going to be on 166 00:06:43,868 --> 00:06:45,628 Speaker 4: a T shirt soon. You remember when t BO did 167 00:06:45,628 --> 00:06:48,868 Speaker 4: his thing and griffining, Like that's going to be Jones. Yeah, 168 00:06:49,068 --> 00:06:52,068 Speaker 4: and Jack Jones. Think about this like the relationship of 169 00:06:52,068 --> 00:06:54,948 Speaker 4: a coach and a player. Ap Antonio Pierce coached Jack 170 00:06:55,028 --> 00:06:57,468 Speaker 4: Jones in high school and Long Beach Colla Prep. Then 171 00:06:57,508 --> 00:06:59,948 Speaker 4: he transferred to Arizona State. Ap was a coach there. 172 00:07:00,108 --> 00:07:02,588 Speaker 4: He's been with him like through all three levels. So 173 00:07:02,868 --> 00:07:05,548 Speaker 4: there's there's one guy that was drafted by the Patriots 174 00:07:05,628 --> 00:07:07,708 Speaker 4: fourth round pick last year. Now all of a sudden 175 00:07:07,708 --> 00:07:09,308 Speaker 4: he's on a new team. You know, there was a 176 00:07:09,308 --> 00:07:10,988 Speaker 4: former coach there, a coach for the Patriots. So there's 177 00:07:10,988 --> 00:07:12,588 Speaker 4: a lot of little things going in there. But the 178 00:07:12,628 --> 00:07:15,148 Speaker 4: other guy that I'm looking at is Jacoby Myers. The 179 00:07:15,228 --> 00:07:18,908 Speaker 4: last time we saw him throwing a pass in that stadium. 180 00:07:18,548 --> 00:07:20,108 Speaker 7: It was for the Patriots. It was awful. 181 00:07:20,148 --> 00:07:22,188 Speaker 4: We've gone over you broke that play down. It was 182 00:07:22,188 --> 00:07:24,108 Speaker 4: one of the wildest plays of the season last year. 183 00:07:24,508 --> 00:07:27,028 Speaker 4: He threw two passes last night, and one of one 184 00:07:27,068 --> 00:07:28,188 Speaker 4: was for a touchdown right here. 185 00:07:28,308 --> 00:07:30,028 Speaker 7: So you want to talk about exercising the demons. 186 00:07:30,068 --> 00:07:32,228 Speaker 4: He'd thrown two as a Patriot before, but for him 187 00:07:32,228 --> 00:07:33,828 Speaker 4: to be able to go out there and kind of 188 00:07:33,828 --> 00:07:36,548 Speaker 4: eliminate or what happened, all right, that's a bad memory. 189 00:07:36,628 --> 00:07:38,028 Speaker 7: I'm going to turn the page right there. 190 00:07:38,148 --> 00:07:40,188 Speaker 4: I thought that was pretty neat for Jacoby Myers on 191 00:07:40,188 --> 00:07:42,828 Speaker 4: a personal level, but this was an unbelievable win. So 192 00:07:42,948 --> 00:07:45,708 Speaker 4: excited for my former teammate Antonia Pierce. 193 00:07:45,708 --> 00:07:47,748 Speaker 7: So what he's doing this is real, Like they're talking 194 00:07:47,748 --> 00:07:48,588 Speaker 7: about it all broadcast. 195 00:07:48,628 --> 00:07:50,388 Speaker 4: The players want him to be the coach, and I 196 00:07:50,388 --> 00:07:51,988 Speaker 4: don't know how you if you're Mark Davis, I don't 197 00:07:51,988 --> 00:07:53,428 Speaker 4: know how you look at that and go anywhere else. 198 00:07:53,428 --> 00:07:55,348 Speaker 1: Well, there's only one guy who needs to want him 199 00:07:55,348 --> 00:07:57,628 Speaker 1: to be the coach, and it's Mark Davis. He's sitting 200 00:07:57,668 --> 00:07:59,948 Speaker 1: up there giggling as his team kicks the crap out 201 00:07:59,948 --> 00:08:01,828 Speaker 1: of a division right like he loved that. He was 202 00:08:01,828 --> 00:08:03,668 Speaker 1: having so much fun last night. It's the only guy 203 00:08:03,668 --> 00:08:05,748 Speaker 1: you have to impress. But as far as everybody else, 204 00:08:05,988 --> 00:08:08,468 Speaker 1: I think we need to understand this wasn't just a 205 00:08:08,508 --> 00:08:12,628 Speaker 1: bad Thursday night game. This was history history when it 206 00:08:12,628 --> 00:08:14,708 Speaker 1: goes a half time forty two to nothing. In terms 207 00:08:14,748 --> 00:08:19,548 Speaker 1: of largest halftime deficits ever, ever, it's the four largest, 208 00:08:19,548 --> 00:08:21,708 Speaker 1: so the top one you might remember. It's Brady and 209 00:08:21,748 --> 00:08:24,148 Speaker 1: the Red Jerseys against Jason mccordy's Titans. They were up 210 00:08:24,188 --> 00:08:28,228 Speaker 1: forty five points at half last night forty two Packers 211 00:08:28,228 --> 00:08:30,708 Speaker 1: Bears was one of these Jake Cutler whoopings that they 212 00:08:30,708 --> 00:08:33,228 Speaker 1: would take from the Rogers Packers and then down there 213 00:08:33,268 --> 00:08:35,948 Speaker 1: the Lynn Dickey Packers again on the Bucks. So that 214 00:08:36,148 --> 00:08:39,908 Speaker 1: is the second largest halftime league ever. And like, once 215 00:08:39,948 --> 00:08:41,748 Speaker 1: you get into let's just look at some of the 216 00:08:41,988 --> 00:08:44,388 Speaker 1: whooping that I talked about, because I love when the 217 00:08:44,428 --> 00:08:46,548 Speaker 1: research comes back from games like that and it comes 218 00:08:46,628 --> 00:08:48,388 Speaker 1: up with teams that don't exist anymore. 219 00:08:48,508 --> 00:08:50,428 Speaker 5: Cincinnati Bob Kats, that's good, I got you. 220 00:08:50,508 --> 00:08:52,868 Speaker 1: I got so forty two points to first half by Raiders. 221 00:08:52,908 --> 00:08:54,708 Speaker 1: I think the important point is the Raiders were shut 222 00:08:54,708 --> 00:08:56,708 Speaker 1: out last week. It's not like the Chargers ran into 223 00:08:56,788 --> 00:08:59,348 Speaker 1: the Dolphins or something. They get sixty three. Let's see 224 00:08:59,348 --> 00:09:01,508 Speaker 1: some of it from last night. Most first half points 225 00:09:01,508 --> 00:09:04,228 Speaker 1: scored by a team shutout in their previous game with 226 00:09:04,228 --> 00:09:07,068 Speaker 1: the same season. Ever, it's never happened. And the last 227 00:09:07,068 --> 00:09:11,628 Speaker 1: team was the Frankfurt Yellow Jackets and the Dayton Triangles 228 00:09:10,708 --> 00:09:14,028 Speaker 1: Frankfort Yellow And then it's also the second most points 229 00:09:14,028 --> 00:09:16,828 Speaker 1: in NFL history scored sixty three by a team following 230 00:09:16,828 --> 00:09:19,468 Speaker 1: the shutout. You gotta go back to nineteen thirty four 231 00:09:19,628 --> 00:09:22,988 Speaker 1: where the Cincinnati Reds, who was a football team, lost 232 00:09:23,028 --> 00:09:25,868 Speaker 1: got We're talking about reds and yellow jackets like it's 233 00:09:25,908 --> 00:09:28,508 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three and those are the Chargers giving up 234 00:09:28,548 --> 00:09:31,588 Speaker 1: sixty three, not to the greatest Show on turf to 235 00:09:32,308 --> 00:09:35,388 Speaker 1: eight and O'Connell, Yes, what, I don't care if you 236 00:09:35,388 --> 00:09:38,188 Speaker 1: give us. The Broncos gave up seventy and they may 237 00:09:38,188 --> 00:09:40,348 Speaker 1: be going to the playoffs, but you gave up sixty 238 00:09:40,388 --> 00:09:43,308 Speaker 1: three that night in that way. And also the image 239 00:09:43,348 --> 00:09:44,908 Speaker 1: of this, I know it's the greatest pick six we've 240 00:09:44,908 --> 00:09:47,708 Speaker 1: ever seen in all this the image afterwards, let's bring 241 00:09:47,828 --> 00:09:49,588 Speaker 1: up the heart and soul of the Raiders sitting with 242 00:09:49,628 --> 00:09:52,228 Speaker 1: the Amazon crew.

He has completely 364 00:14:52,748 --> 00:14:55,908 Speaker 4: throttled the Houston Texas throughout his career, and bad news 365 00:14:55,908 --> 00:14:58,588 Speaker 4: for the Texans, they're wearing the throwback uniforms, so he's 366 00:14:58,668 --> 00:15:02,308 Speaker 4: rocking the old school oiler jersey, channeling all of your 367 00:15:03,348 --> 00:15:07,108 Speaker 4: campbell highlights of him just running through jerseys. This could 368 00:15:07,148 --> 00:15:09,348 Speaker 4: be a monster game for Derrick Henry. Not I'm worried 369 00:15:09,388 --> 00:15:10,548 Speaker 4: about the Houston Texas defense. 370 00:15:10,588 --> 00:15:12,948 Speaker 5: Texans story was nice. Wasn't it a fun ride? 371 00:15:12,948 --> 00:15:13,828 Speaker 7: It feels like it's over. 372 00:15:14,028 --> 00:15:14,468 Speaker 5: I don't know. 373 00:15:14,708 --> 00:15:18,188 Speaker 8: No Sucker Pass's potentially no Stroud and then no Nico, 374 00:15:18,308 --> 00:15:21,068 Speaker 8: No Dell will Anderson did in practice this week, Like 375 00:15:21,148 --> 00:15:24,868 Speaker 8: maybe Nico magically plays. But imagine going back to Davis 376 00:15:24,908 --> 00:15:27,108 Speaker 8: Mills and saying, Okay, we replaced you with this guy, 377 00:15:27,108 --> 00:15:29,468 Speaker 8: but we kept you around. Now go save our season. 378 00:15:29,508 --> 00:15:31,988 Speaker 8: That's what they're looking at right now. I don't know, Texans. 379 00:15:31,988 --> 00:15:34,868 Speaker 8: This feels like it was a nice ride in October November. 380 00:15:34,988 --> 00:15:38,028 Speaker 1: Counterpoint, you were first on the Davis Mills beat coming out. 381 00:15:38,108 --> 00:15:40,148 Speaker 1: You liked him, you hyped him, you were all over him. 382 00:15:40,228 --> 00:15:43,228 Speaker 1: He's played a lot of football. You mentioned the throwback jerseys. 383 00:15:43,308 --> 00:15:46,108 Speaker 1: We get DeAndre Hopkins versus his old team, Billy White Shoes. 384 00:15:46,188 --> 00:15:47,828 Speaker 1: Johnson's going to the Ring of Fame before this, the 385 00:15:47,988 --> 00:15:49,868 Speaker 1: Ring of Honor. Reason to watch alone. But you're right, 386 00:15:50,028 --> 00:15:52,788 Speaker 1: Dereck Henry has four two hundred yard games against this team. 387 00:15:52,908 --> 00:15:53,108 Speaker 7: Four. 388 00:15:53,308 --> 00:15:56,708 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. Watch him going back to Yeah, Texans. 389 00:15:56,388 --> 00:15:57,948 Speaker 2: I think have a service dog, and I feel like 390 00:15:58,028 --> 00:15:59,068 Speaker 2: that's just good karma. 391 00:15:59,148 --> 00:15:59,868 Speaker 3: At least they used to. 392 00:16:00,228 --> 00:16:02,148 Speaker 2: So you got to think having a training a service 393 00:16:02,228 --> 00:16:05,108 Speaker 2: dog brings a little like, you know, good will the. 394 00:16:05,148 --> 00:16:06,388 Speaker 5: Team service dogs. 395 00:16:06,428 --> 00:16:08,788 Speaker 7: Yeah, I like this little calmness. 396 00:16:08,948 --> 00:16:11,228 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like relax, pet the dog, a little endorphin. 397 00:16:11,348 --> 00:16:14,708 Speaker 1: Peter travels with a little dog, right, comfort dog there, 398 00:16:14,908 --> 00:16:22,268 Speaker 1: rumor Fluffy, Yes, my little Labradude to rescue dog, Peter, 399 00:16:22,508 --> 00:16:24,268 Speaker 1: my little labrador Jaguars. 400 00:16:24,308 --> 00:16:27,108 Speaker 2: Both teams are first in their division. I love what 401 00:16:27,188 --> 00:16:29,348 Speaker 2: the Ravens are doing, Peter. For you, what stands out 402 00:16:29,388 --> 00:16:31,828 Speaker 2: when you look at this matchup Sunday night in Jacksonville. 403 00:16:31,908 --> 00:16:33,628 Speaker 8: I'd love to have the history on this and maybe 404 00:16:33,628 --> 00:16:36,188 Speaker 8: the NBC folks because when was the last Sunday night 405 00:16:36,228 --> 00:16:38,588 Speaker 8: home game in Jacksonville. Yes, we saw them played a 406 00:16:38,588 --> 00:16:41,188 Speaker 8: playoff game last year on NBC. But I'd love that 407 00:16:41,228 --> 00:16:42,588 Speaker 8: this is a primetime game. 408 00:16:42,708 --> 00:16:45,068 Speaker 5: And I love what the Baltimore Ravens are doing. 409 00:16:45,388 --> 00:16:47,428 Speaker 8: Last week was a shootout and Lamar was able to 410 00:16:47,428 --> 00:16:49,748 Speaker 8: go toe for toe with Stafford at Stafford's very bad. 411 00:16:49,988 --> 00:16:51,948 Speaker 8: I don't see a let up game here. I see 412 00:16:51,988 --> 00:16:54,508 Speaker 8: Baltimore going into Jacksonville, a place I remember they lost 413 00:16:54,548 --> 00:16:56,388 Speaker 8: on a Monday night years ago, and like a big 414 00:16:56,388 --> 00:16:58,228 Speaker 8: Monday night game. I don't see it happening again. I 415 00:16:58,228 --> 00:16:59,828 Speaker 8: think the Ravens keep it wrong. I think they beat 416 00:16:59,828 --> 00:17:00,348 Speaker 8: the Jaguars. 417 00:17:00,348 --> 00:17:02,508 Speaker 1: I look at games differently now. If the game has 418 00:17:02,588 --> 00:17:06,108 Speaker 1: the two franchise quarterbacks playing, I'm in because it's so rare. 419 00:17:06,388 --> 00:17:09,628 Speaker 1: We got the two guys, So Texans Titans nope, Giants, 420 00:17:09,628 --> 00:17:14,788 Speaker 1: Saints nope, Bears, Brown's Nope, Vikings Bengals. We'll just keep going. Ravens, Jags, Yes, 421 00:17:14,988 --> 00:17:17,508 Speaker 1: Lamar Versus Lawrence. Thank you? Is that too much to ask? 422 00:17:17,588 --> 00:17:18,308 Speaker 7: No, we got it. 423 00:17:18,348 --> 00:17:20,508 Speaker 4: I love the duel and it's funny because before the 424 00:17:20,508 --> 00:17:23,308 Speaker 4: scene started, we were talking about Trevor Lawrence possible MVP candidate. 425 00:17:23,348 --> 00:17:24,828 Speaker 4: Now I just hope he makes it through the season. 426 00:17:24,908 --> 00:17:26,508 Speaker 4: Like two weeks a week ago, we don't know if 427 00:17:26,548 --> 00:17:27,908 Speaker 4: he was ever going to play. So I do have 428 00:17:27,948 --> 00:17:30,348 Speaker 4: some concerns for Trevor Lawrence against his bothim Ravens defense. 429 00:17:30,388 --> 00:17:31,988 Speaker 4: They lead in the league in sacks, so they get 430 00:17:31,988 --> 00:17:33,468 Speaker 4: after the quarterback. I don't know if he's still a 431 00:17:33,468 --> 00:17:35,868 Speaker 4: little bit hobbled by that ankle injury, but no Christian Kirk. 432 00:17:35,908 --> 00:17:37,788 Speaker 4: That offense looked a little bit different last week. 433 00:17:37,908 --> 00:17:40,508 Speaker 2: Yeah, Raven's seemingly locked in there for the playoffs. But 434 00:17:40,588 --> 00:17:43,908 Speaker 2: let's talk to playoff hopefuls, the Buccaneers and Packers. We 435 00:17:43,908 --> 00:17:47,388 Speaker 2: were there Monday night, Packers getting beat by the Giants. So, Kyle, 436 00:17:47,428 --> 00:17:49,228 Speaker 2: I'm going to go to you here. What stands out 437 00:17:49,228 --> 00:17:50,108 Speaker 2: when you look at this one. 438 00:17:50,148 --> 00:17:51,788 Speaker 1: First of all, the segment changes a lot. When they 439 00:17:51,788 --> 00:17:55,108 Speaker 1: stopped doing the buzzer Sean, he went like twenty seconds over, 440 00:17:55,148 --> 00:17:56,748 Speaker 1: they didn't buzz you. Let's finish. 441 00:17:56,988 --> 00:17:57,828 Speaker 5: Really, I respect it. 442 00:17:57,868 --> 00:17:58,548 Speaker 7: I was borrowing. 443 00:17:58,668 --> 00:18:00,588 Speaker 1: You didn't want the buzzer drop on Sean? Right now? 444 00:18:00,668 --> 00:18:03,188 Speaker 1: Come on, Peter, stop lying at the table. What would 445 00:18:03,228 --> 00:18:05,148 Speaker 1: you say? What do you got yet? Listen? I thought 446 00:18:05,188 --> 00:18:07,228 Speaker 1: the Packers were gonna be the come running team. I 447 00:18:07,228 --> 00:18:08,708 Speaker 1: thought they had it and the whole thing about the 448 00:18:08,748 --> 00:18:11,108 Speaker 1: floor never loses in December, they still can be. It 449 00:18:11,148 --> 00:18:13,108 Speaker 1: was a big step back yesterday. One of these teams 450 00:18:13,108 --> 00:18:14,748 Speaker 1: step up. I'm not sure either of these teams are 451 00:18:14,788 --> 00:18:16,108 Speaker 1: uning the playoffs. I like want of them to make 452 00:18:16,108 --> 00:18:16,628 Speaker 1: a shot at it. 453 00:18:16,708 --> 00:18:18,628 Speaker 4: Yeah, matchups right here in this game. I'm just looking 454 00:18:18,628 --> 00:18:20,708 Speaker 4: at Mike Evans against jyr Alexander. 455 00:18:20,828 --> 00:18:22,228 Speaker 7: That could be a really fun one to watch. 456 00:18:22,308 --> 00:18:25,388 Speaker 4: They're always gonna have cameras locked right on those guys 457 00:18:25,388 --> 00:18:26,148 Speaker 4: every single play. 458 00:18:26,228 --> 00:18:27,228 Speaker 7: I'm looking forward to them breaking. 459 00:18:27,468 --> 00:18:29,348 Speaker 1: Now they're gonna do the buzzer, right. 460 00:18:30,668 --> 00:18:33,428 Speaker 8: One of these teams is gonna host either the Eagles 461 00:18:33,548 --> 00:18:35,588 Speaker 8: or the Cowboys in the playoff game, and it's gonna 462 00:18:35,588 --> 00:18:38,108 Speaker 8: be the Buccaneers, the Saints, the Falcons.

Each week is 569 00:22:44,788 --> 00:22:47,908 Speaker 10: it's not about the postseason, but about pride. It's the 570 00:22:47,908 --> 00:22:50,268 Speaker 10: opportunity to take pride in yourself, you know, as a 571 00:22:50,308 --> 00:22:53,188 Speaker 10: team as a unit, and to come out and play together. 572 00:22:53,468 --> 00:22:56,548 Speaker 10: I mean, honestly, my eight years here have been phenomenal 573 00:22:56,588 --> 00:22:58,788 Speaker 10: on the coach. I've learned so much and it's been 574 00:22:58,788 --> 00:23:01,788 Speaker 10: a great opportunity just to be a player here, the 575 00:23:01,828 --> 00:23:05,148 Speaker 10: highs and the lows, and I think before you just 576 00:23:05,148 --> 00:23:07,228 Speaker 10: continue to work off that and know that every year 577 00:23:07,268 --> 00:23:08,628 Speaker 10: is not going to be a great year, but you 578 00:23:08,668 --> 00:23:10,708 Speaker 10: continue to fight. So these next few weeks, you know, 579 00:23:10,748 --> 00:23:13,148 Speaker 10: as a team, you come together, backs against the wall and. 580 00:23:13,188 --> 00:23:15,028 Speaker 5: Just just fight. Just fight. I mean, I think that's 581 00:23:15,028 --> 00:23:15,628 Speaker 5: all you can do. 582 00:23:15,988 --> 00:23:18,428 Speaker 4: Jonathan, your defense has been playing lights out the last 583 00:23:18,508 --> 00:23:22,588 Speaker 4: couple of weeks. But this Sunday, you guys have Patrick 584 00:23:22,668 --> 00:23:24,708 Speaker 4: Mahomes and the Chiefs coming to town. 585 00:23:24,908 --> 00:23:27,508 Speaker 7: Take us through the preparation week. Is there anything different. 586 00:23:27,188 --> 00:23:30,148 Speaker 4: Anything you're doing extra because Mahomes is coming into town. 587 00:23:30,588 --> 00:23:32,068 Speaker 1: I mean, one of the best to do it. 588 00:23:32,188 --> 00:23:35,548 Speaker 10: I mean honestly saying that because he is a phenomenal talent. 589 00:23:35,828 --> 00:23:37,948 Speaker 10: The one thing about him, they're going to push the 590 00:23:37,988 --> 00:23:40,948 Speaker 10: ball down the field. He's going to make extended plays 591 00:23:41,148 --> 00:23:43,868 Speaker 10: and run around and you have to be on key, 592 00:23:43,988 --> 00:23:46,308 Speaker 10: you know, all throughout the game. And the thing about 593 00:23:46,348 --> 00:23:48,388 Speaker 10: them is, you know they can be either blow you 594 00:23:48,428 --> 00:23:50,748 Speaker 10: out from the beginning of the game or hang around 595 00:23:50,828 --> 00:23:52,388 Speaker 10: and in the end come back and win. 596 00:23:52,268 --> 00:23:53,148 Speaker 5: In fifteen seconds. 597 00:23:53,148 --> 00:23:55,388 Speaker 10: So they're that type of team with him at the 598 00:23:55,468 --> 00:23:57,468 Speaker 10: quarterback that you just have to stay on it and 599 00:23:57,468 --> 00:24:00,508 Speaker 10: play an entire sixty minute football game and continue to fight. 600 00:24:00,668 --> 00:24:02,988 Speaker 10: That's one thing they're going to do. They have a 601 00:24:02,988 --> 00:24:05,468 Speaker 10: way around the team, you know, even deep intensively. They 602 00:24:05,468 --> 00:24:07,188 Speaker 10: have a lot of good talent, from the corner back 603 00:24:07,228 --> 00:24:08,028 Speaker 10: to the front seven. 604 00:24:08,828 --> 00:24:09,948 Speaker 1: They do a good job. 605 00:24:10,028 --> 00:24:11,268 Speaker 5: So it's just gonna be a good game. 606 00:24:12,628 --> 00:24:14,708 Speaker 1: Well, if they happen to score a touchdown against you, 607 00:24:14,748 --> 00:24:16,628 Speaker 1: don't worry. They probably line up wrong, it'll be called back. 608 00:24:16,628 --> 00:24:18,748 Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. That's last week. We'll see how 609 00:24:18,788 --> 00:24:22,548 Speaker 1: you do this week. Listen, you played four seasons with 610 00:24:22,588 --> 00:24:24,948 Speaker 1: Tom Brady.

The Dolphins inexplicably losing to the Titans 677 00:27:16,428 --> 00:27:19,268 Speaker 8: after getting up fourteen points with three minutes left to 678 00:27:19,308 --> 00:27:22,508 Speaker 8: go opened up a huge door for the Bills. 679 00:27:22,548 --> 00:27:24,428 Speaker 1: Not just in the wild card round. 680 00:27:24,468 --> 00:27:26,948 Speaker 8: It opened up a huge door in the AFC East. 681 00:27:27,548 --> 00:27:28,828 Speaker 8: The Dolphins do not have. 682 00:27:28,748 --> 00:27:31,068 Speaker 5: An easy schedule up ahead the Bills. 683 00:27:31,108 --> 00:27:33,828 Speaker 8: If they get past the Cowboys do and guess who 684 00:27:33,868 --> 00:27:36,868 Speaker 8: faces each other in Week eighteen, Oh yeah, it's Bills. 685 00:27:36,868 --> 00:27:37,948 Speaker 5: Dolphins and guess who won. 686 00:27:38,028 --> 00:27:40,668 Speaker 8: The first time they played Buffalo Bills, they would have 687 00:27:40,708 --> 00:27:43,308 Speaker 8: the tiebreaker, they died. So I think the Buffalo Bills 688 00:27:43,348 --> 00:27:45,708 Speaker 8: that went over the Cowboys is everything. Not only does 689 00:27:45,748 --> 00:27:47,788 Speaker 8: it open the door for a wild card spot, it 690 00:27:47,788 --> 00:27:49,828 Speaker 8: could open the door for an AFC East title in 691 00:27:49,828 --> 00:27:50,708 Speaker 8: a whole playoff game. 692 00:27:50,868 --> 00:27:53,308 Speaker 5: I'm not crazy. Crazier things have happened. 693 00:27:53,628 --> 00:27:55,268 Speaker 4: Yeah, if the Bills get pulled this off, it almost 694 00:27:55,268 --> 00:27:57,388 Speaker 4: feels like they're done with all the bad breaks right 695 00:27:57,428 --> 00:27:59,108 Speaker 4: like the beginning part of the season, you just went 696 00:27:59,148 --> 00:28:01,148 Speaker 4: through it all, like the ball just did not bounce 697 00:28:01,188 --> 00:28:01,668 Speaker 4: their way. 698 00:28:01,828 --> 00:28:02,828 Speaker 7: Everything was going wrong. 699 00:28:02,868 --> 00:28:04,668 Speaker 4: And then we see in the Chiefs game, all of 700 00:28:04,668 --> 00:28:06,868 Speaker 4: a sudden, hey, they get a great call, touchdowns taken 701 00:28:06,908 --> 00:28:08,948 Speaker 4: off the board, a couple of missed opportunities here and there, 702 00:28:08,948 --> 00:28:10,388 Speaker 4: and now the Bills, all of a sudden, are on a roll. 703 00:28:10,428 --> 00:28:13,508 Speaker 4: I think for Josh Allen and this Bills team going 704 00:28:13,548 --> 00:28:16,188 Speaker 4: down into Dallas and playing the Dallas Cowboys right now, 705 00:28:16,228 --> 00:28:18,188 Speaker 4: like this is your ultimate barmeter right now, like the 706 00:28:18,188 --> 00:28:20,828 Speaker 4: rest of their season, the playoffs are already started right now. 707 00:28:20,868 --> 00:28:23,108 Speaker 4: From here on out, every single week is a playoff game. 708 00:28:23,188 --> 00:28:25,148 Speaker 4: But this is the ultimate test right here to go 709 00:28:25,188 --> 00:28:28,188 Speaker 4: on the road. I still think Josh Allen arguably one 710 00:28:28,228 --> 00:28:30,428 Speaker 4: of the best quarterbacks in the league, and not even 711 00:28:30,508 --> 00:28:32,188 Speaker 4: just with what he could do with his arm, like 712 00:28:32,228 --> 00:28:34,828 Speaker 4: he's such a physical aspect of this game. So this 713 00:28:34,868 --> 00:28:37,068 Speaker 4: would be a huge statement to the rest of the 714 00:28:37,068 --> 00:28:39,668 Speaker 4: AFC that that's it the Bills. You saw the first 715 00:28:39,668 --> 00:28:41,228 Speaker 4: half of the season, that's over with, that's done with. 716 00:28:41,428 --> 00:28:43,428 Speaker 4: Now they're playing their best ball. Josh talked for weeks 717 00:28:43,468 --> 00:28:45,788 Speaker 4: about we're gonna fix it. That's exactly this would be 718 00:28:45,788 --> 00:28:47,188 Speaker 4: the statement and the opportunity to do that. 719 00:28:47,308 --> 00:28:49,268 Speaker 1: Bills beat the Cowboys this weekend. The Bills are going 720 00:28:49,268 --> 00:28:52,068 Speaker 1: to the playoffs. It's happening. It's happening. I'll tell you why. 721 00:28:52,108 --> 00:28:53,468 Speaker 1: So this is a six and six team. A few 722 00:28:53,508 --> 00:28:55,268 Speaker 1: weeks ago, you lose the Eagles, you're going to the buy. 723 00:28:55,668 --> 00:28:58,348 Speaker 1: You come out, you beat Kansas City, if you beat Dallas, 724 00:28:58,388 --> 00:29:00,068 Speaker 1: and it's a big if, all right, then you get 725 00:29:00,108 --> 00:29:02,628 Speaker 1: to eight and six. You're gonna beat the Chargers the 726 00:29:02,668 --> 00:29:04,868 Speaker 1: next week, the Chargers, oh my god, gonna beat the 727 00:29:04,868 --> 00:29:07,428 Speaker 1: Patriots on New Year's Eve. You're gonna figure out a way. 728 00:29:07,588 --> 00:29:09,548 Speaker 1: And then you're at Miami for the last game to 729 00:29:09,628 --> 00:29:12,028 Speaker 1: win out, and maybe Miami has nothing to play for, 730 00:29:12,228 --> 00:29:14,028 Speaker 1: and maybe Miami does have something to play for, and 731 00:29:14,028 --> 00:29:15,828 Speaker 1: the Bills beat them by four touchdowns the last time 732 00:29:15,828 --> 00:29:17,828 Speaker 1: they played them. I think if they win against Dallas, 733 00:29:17,828 --> 00:29:19,308 Speaker 1: they are going to the playoffs. If they lose, they 734 00:29:19,388 --> 00:29:21,388 Speaker 1: might be screwed. Now we've debated this a little bit. 735 00:29:21,628 --> 00:29:23,228 Speaker 1: I think they can finish in ten and seven to 736 00:29:23,268 --> 00:29:25,348 Speaker 1: still get in. Peter said they need to win out 737 00:29:25,388 --> 00:29:27,308 Speaker 1: to go to eleven and six to stll get it 738 00:29:27,508 --> 00:29:29,708 Speaker 1: probably show you gotta win out. I think if they 739 00:29:29,748 --> 00:29:31,548 Speaker 1: lose against Dallas, this wee gonna could be it like 740 00:29:31,588 --> 00:29:33,788 Speaker 1: you can win the rest of the games, it doesn't matter. 741 00:29:34,028 --> 00:29:36,188 Speaker 1: This is a playoff game. This is massive, and I 742 00:29:36,228 --> 00:29:37,988 Speaker 1: think once you turn the corner, if you can beat 743 00:29:38,108 --> 00:29:40,868 Speaker 1: Dallas and you're at home in late window, I think 744 00:29:40,868 --> 00:29:42,388 Speaker 1: the Bills are gonna go from six and six to 745 00:29:42,428 --> 00:29:45,748 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I have constructed a device. Peter, you mentioned 746 00:29:45,828 --> 00:29:48,908 Speaker 1: something about the team no one wants to see, so 747 00:29:49,388 --> 00:29:51,148 Speaker 1: let me set it up first. We can't put a 748 00:29:51,148 --> 00:29:53,428 Speaker 1: finger on what this team is, and it's been all 749 00:29:53,468 --> 00:29:55,468 Speaker 1: over the place. They're scary, They're not scary. They're going 750 00:29:55,468 --> 00:29:56,988 Speaker 1: to straight up bad team. Oh my god, they're an 751 00:29:56,988 --> 00:29:59,388 Speaker 1: incredible team. So I have something that we're gonna call 752 00:29:59,428 --> 00:30:01,828 Speaker 1: the buff Con Scale. Over the next four or five weeks, 753 00:30:01,868 --> 00:30:03,788 Speaker 1: we're gonna try to put our finger on exactly what 754 00:30:03,828 --> 00:30:05,908 Speaker 1: the bills are and take a look at it. Here's 755 00:30:05,908 --> 00:30:08,348 Speaker 1: the five different rankings. Now, if it's all the way 756 00:30:08,428 --> 00:30:11,108 Speaker 1: up at five, you're saying, Vegas Banks, we're going to 757 00:30:11,148 --> 00:30:13,748 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. We're that good. Number four is don't 758 00:30:13,828 --> 00:30:16,188 Speaker 1: let us get in because we'll win the whole thing. 759 00:30:16,628 --> 00:30:18,628 Speaker 1: Number three is are on the standby list. And that's 760 00:30:18,628 --> 00:30:20,228 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna put them right now because they don't 761 00:30:20,228 --> 00:30:22,028 Speaker 1: have a seat on the flight. They're sitting there, they're 762 00:30:22,068 --> 00:30:24,748 Speaker 1: on standby. They hope a set opens up. Below that, 763 00:30:24,908 --> 00:30:29,308 Speaker 1: you're like, well, we're not mathematically eliminated. And then below that, 764 00:30:29,308 --> 00:30:31,428 Speaker 1: that's a wrap. I'm shaking my head. A terrible wasted 765 00:30:31,468 --> 00:30:33,348 Speaker 1: season with one of the greatest quarterbacks in the league 766 00:30:33,388 --> 00:30:35,468 Speaker 1: in the year that everybody's playing their backups. So, guys, 767 00:30:35,908 --> 00:30:38,868 Speaker 1: if they beat Dallas, I'm ready to elevate them to 768 00:30:38,988 --> 00:30:42,268 Speaker 1: the don't let us get in team step four. If 769 00:30:42,308 --> 00:30:44,988 Speaker 1: they beat Dallas and they beat the Chargers and they 770 00:30:45,028 --> 00:30:47,548 Speaker 1: beat New England, and they beat Miami and they finished 771 00:30:47,548 --> 00:30:50,508 Speaker 1: this season on a five game win streak. Then you're 772 00:30:50,508 --> 00:30:52,468 Speaker 1: doing the Vegas chance because then they're not only one 773 00:30:52,508 --> 00:30:54,388 Speaker 1: of the most talented dudes, they're rolling out. Then they're 774 00:30:54,428 --> 00:30:56,028 Speaker 1: one of the hottest teams in the league. So that's 775 00:30:56,068 --> 00:30:58,508 Speaker 1: the BUFFCN scale. I understand. I have them now only 776 00:30:58,548 --> 00:31:00,588 Speaker 1: in on standby because they're not in the playoffs. Right now, 777 00:31:00,628 --> 00:31:03,668 Speaker 1: they are out. You don't have a seat. Beat Dallas 778 00:31:03,708 --> 00:31:05,388 Speaker 1: this weekend. I think you're sitting first class. 779 00:31:06,148 --> 00:31:07,148 Speaker 5: One more layer with Kyle. 780 00:31:07,348 --> 00:31:07,548 Speaker 1: Yeah. 781 00:31:07,548 --> 00:31:09,388 Speaker 8: Of course, if they are to do that, you had 782 00:31:09,428 --> 00:31:11,068 Speaker 8: to take earlier in the week that if listening to 783 00:31:11,068 --> 00:31:14,028 Speaker 8: the viewers didn't watch it early, it would also mean 784 00:31:14,068 --> 00:31:16,828 Speaker 8: that Josh Allen was doing these awesome things with an 785 00:31:16,868 --> 00:31:20,308 Speaker 8: open MVP race. Is that not a crazy take that 786 00:31:20,588 --> 00:31:23,148 Speaker 8: not only can the Bills make the playoffs, Josh Allen 787 00:31:23,188 --> 00:31:24,108 Speaker 8: can still win the MVP. 788 00:31:24,428 --> 00:31:27,028 Speaker 1: Yeah. So what I say for MVP you need the stats, 789 00:31:27,068 --> 00:31:28,908 Speaker 1: you need the wins, and you need the story. They 790 00:31:28,908 --> 00:31:30,908 Speaker 1: don't have the wins right now, they don't. He has 791 00:31:30,948 --> 00:31:32,788 Speaker 1: the stats. The stats are incredible, leads the league in 792 00:31:32,788 --> 00:31:34,668 Speaker 1: a lot of categories. The story would be he was 793 00:31:34,668 --> 00:31:36,748 Speaker 1: a twenty five to one long shot to win MVP 794 00:31:36,988 --> 00:31:39,788 Speaker 1: late in the season of Bills at quarterback. MVP would 795 00:31:39,828 --> 00:31:41,748 Speaker 1: be insane, but you need to have the wins. If 796 00:31:41,788 --> 00:31:43,348 Speaker 1: they get into the playoffs, and if they're going to 797 00:31:43,388 --> 00:31:45,428 Speaker 1: get in, his stats are going to be insane. Absolutely, 798 00:31:45,468 --> 00:31:47,468 Speaker 1: you could rip this thing because if Perty doesn't claim 799 00:31:47,508 --> 00:31:49,588 Speaker 1: it and Dak doesn't claim it, it could be come 800 00:31:49,628 --> 00:31:51,228 Speaker 1: down to the wire if they're in the playoffs. He's 801 00:31:51,268 --> 00:31:52,428 Speaker 1: going to be in the conversation. 802 00:31:52,028 --> 00:31:55,828 Speaker 8: Actially if he just outshines Dak this weekend and it's 803 00:31:55,868 --> 00:31:59,108 Speaker 8: like hit ahead, well, Josh Allen, you know, beat mahomes Andy, 804 00:31:59,108 --> 00:31:59,548 Speaker 8: beat Dak. 805 00:31:59,628 --> 00:32:01,428 Speaker 1: So where at great point, be. 806 00:32:01,468 --> 00:32:04,188 Speaker 2: Nice deep breath for all the Bills fans out there 807 00:32:04,228 --> 00:32:06,068 Speaker 2: if they can get that win. But if we do 808 00:32:06,108 --> 00:32:08,748 Speaker 2: want to bring in our NFL insider again, Tom Pelasaro, 809 00:32:09,028 --> 00:32:10,948 Speaker 2: a lot of games coming up, Tom this weekend. 810 00:32:10,948 --> 00:32:13,468 Speaker 3: Tell us what injuries are we needing to look out for, Well. 811 00:32:13,388 --> 00:32:16,628 Speaker 9: Cherry, Let's start out with Texans quarterback CJ. Stroud, who 812 00:32:16,628 --> 00:32:20,468 Speaker 9: did not practice again on Thursdays. He continues to be 813 00:32:20,748 --> 00:32:24,308 Speaker 9: in the concussion protocol now based on how that proto 814 00:32:24,348 --> 00:32:26,668 Speaker 9: call is set up, if Stroud is not on the 815 00:32:26,708 --> 00:32:31,668 Speaker 9: field today in a limited capacity. That would essentially lock 816 00:32:31,748 --> 00:32:34,948 Speaker 9: in Davis Mills as the starter for Houston. 817 00:32:34,948 --> 00:32:36,788 Speaker 1: This week against the Titans. 818 00:32:37,028 --> 00:32:39,908 Speaker 9: In other injury news, Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is 819 00:32:39,988 --> 00:32:44,108 Speaker 9: out for a third consecutive game since he underwent thumb surgery. 820 00:32:44,188 --> 00:32:46,468 Speaker 9: Coach Shane Steichen said earlier this week the plan is 821 00:32:46,468 --> 00:32:49,428 Speaker 9: to get Taylor back at some point this season, but 822 00:32:49,588 --> 00:32:52,228 Speaker 9: for this week, it is going to once again be the. 823 00:32:52,228 --> 00:32:53,148 Speaker 1: Zach Moss show. 824 00:32:53,508 --> 00:32:57,468 Speaker 9: Elsewhere in Miami, wide receiver Tyreek Hill did not practice 825 00:32:57,468 --> 00:33:00,348 Speaker 9: for a second consecutive day as he deals with that 826 00:33:00,508 --> 00:33:04,588 Speaker 9: ankle injury the temporarily sidelined him on Monday night.
