But 241 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 2: the stuff I thought right now, yeah, better than that 242 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 2: blows that out of the water. 243 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: It's kind of been my life, right, Like I I 244 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: didn't really study a lot for things, didn't like doing homework, 245 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: but I did. I was able to like put two 246 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: or two together just from my problem solving, Like I'm 247 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: really good at that, so I could always like, all right, 248 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: so this, this and this kind of you know, eliminate 249 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: some of the other factors. All right, the answer is 250 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: probably this. Maybe I'm not right, but probably seventy five 251 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: percent time I'm gonna be right. And that's where I 252 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: get through life. Like that's how exactly how I got Yes, 253 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: it gets debate. Yeah, and I think my problem is 254 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 1: always good enough. I can get seventy correct. It's pretty 255 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: freaking good. So you know it's not scholar like I'm not. Yeah, 256 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not gonna be teaching me classes anytime soon, 257 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: but I could probably get through life. So yeah, I 258 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: probably probably progress work in progress. 259 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 2: So yeah, we had a debate. 260 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: Man, that was I had some you know, because the teachers, 261 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: you gotta work on this stuff. You gotta really study, 262 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: and I did. I put some time in on that. 263 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 1: But man, on that drive there, I'd always be like, 264 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: I think I've come up with the most genious thing. 265 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: This is gonna work. And this just came to me, 266 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: so something I could have prepared for that. 267 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 2: Yep, this, I'm starting to realize this. 268 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 3: This might be a bad combo for your season two launch, 269 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 3: just for the fact that I mean, I'm very similar 270 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,719 Speaker 3: on that, but I feel like we egg each other 271 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 3: on in that kind of way. So, uh, you know, 272 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 3: we're probably going to be thinking Emmy after we finished 273 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 3: recording this episode. 274 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: Well, we have we have connections of folks who have 275 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: won m's.

Starting quarterback QB One and led him to victory. 395 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: Just talking to him through his helmet, through the plays 396 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 1: and what the plays are pretty incredible for anybody. He 397 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: went alone the head coach. He wasn't the starter, he 398 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: was Oh he didn't start.

And I 498 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 3: think his intention was to you know, get us started 499 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 3: drinking a little bit earlier that he was going to 500 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 3: take advantage. 501 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: I think that's why Joe was in a different group 502 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: ahead of us, because in that way, he probably wasn't drinking. 503 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, they were drinking. They were drinking pedia light. 504 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 1: Up there exactly, whereas we're drinking beers, yes, and we're not, 505 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,400 Speaker 1: you know, because if we were with him, we'd be like, oh, 506 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,360 Speaker 1: you know, maybe not everybody's drinking and it was slow stand. 507 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah, we would have been responsible. Obviously we 508 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 2: would have been responsible, but yeah. 509 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: Fortunately for us, we were not. And this is just 510 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: another reason why you should listen to this NFL preview. 511 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 2: So the NFC, I once got called the drunken drafter, 512 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 2: So yeah, I have experienced draft and drunk. 513 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: That is true. Yeah, So now we're to see how 514 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: you do projecting the NFL season. Not that you're trunk now, 515 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 1: but I mean maybe we got a bucket of beers here. 516 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 2: Again. You know, we've done a ton of prep for 517 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 2: this episode. 518 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 3: We have, so yeah, we've really spent a lot of 519 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 3: time crunching the numbers. I've got my laptop propped up here, Yeah, 520 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 3: with some very good bullet points that you know. 521 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: You have your laptop with all your prep and I 522 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 1: am here to hear it. I love to bounce off 523 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: of what you're saying here. But it's the NFC North. 524 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: We just heard about the Vikings. Things are looking good 525 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: for them. They got a first round quarterback, they've got 526 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: a fourth rounder at corner, they've got new running back, 527 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: they've got elite wide receivers, most of them aren't playing. 528 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: So what do you think? 529 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 2: So the ESPN, I don't know if you've ever seen this. 530 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 2: They do it. 531 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: I watched ESPN. 532 00:26:58,680 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 2: Have you heard of them? 533 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Sports Network. So they did their annual Madden 534 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 3: like they simulated the season in Madden just to see 535 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 3: the results, and it resulted in the Vikings getting the 536 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 3: number one overall pick next year. So apparently Madden does 537 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 3: not think that, you know, Sam Darnold is going to 538 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 3: be able to rise to the occasion. 539 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: John Madden, that's dead? 540 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 2: Is this a theme for season two? Season two is 541 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 2: all about loss? 542 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: It's all about loss, all about death. At the finale 543 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 1: of season two, I'm gonna die. That's out. That is 544 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: the big finale for season two. I'm sorry to spoil 545 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: it for you. 546 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 3: I mean, sometimes you cry so much, you deal with 547 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 3: so much sadness that all you can do is laugh. 548 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 2: There you go laugh with us. That's right. 549 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: So the Bikes aren't looking to be players in the North, 550 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: I'm assuming. I mean, maybe there's enough talent. 551 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 3: The wild Cards you already hit on it. O'Connell, great 552 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,679 Speaker 3: play caller. This is more talent than Darnold's ever been 553 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 3: around in his entire career. This is more support that 554 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 3: he has, you know, in addition to those you know, 555 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 3: all world wide receivers. You know, you got Hockinson that's 556 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 3: coming back here in four weeks. You've got one of 557 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,879 Speaker 3: the best left tackles in the game. You've got a 558 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 3: really good right tackle. Like that offensive line is good. Like, 559 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,479 Speaker 3: there's an argument that could be made. The second thing 560 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 3: that you would say is Brian Flores did a tremendous 561 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 3: job last season bringing that defense back from basically one 562 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 3: of the worst in the league to average in the league. 563 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you've restocked, You're. 564 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 3: Giving him some players like Dallas Turner to make that 565 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 3: defense go. It's one of those you know, Flores has 566 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 3: the active lawsuit going against the NFL still still from 567 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 3: that Belichick accidentally sending him the congrats you got the job. 568 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 3: Yeah uh and then sending it to the Ron Brian. 569 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 3: So that's been That's kind of one of those like 570 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 3: positives that the Vikings half for him is, Hey, he 571 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 3: probably would have been in line for a potential another 572 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 3: head coaching job, but nobody's gonna touch him and tell 573 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 3: this lawsuits resolved, So it's just like, Okay, can we 574 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 3: get another couple of seasons of him, you know, doing that. 575 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: So do you think there's a potential for the NFL 576 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: kind of be like, hey, we could resolve this lawsuit 577 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: which would benefit us. We're gonna benefit you future head 578 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: coaching job down the line, but for this season, may 579 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: give you a couple of wins that maybe you weren't 580 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: going to get through some officiating. The script writers, Yeah, yeah, 581 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: what do you think possible? 582 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 3: Right, They've wrote a redemption arc in here for for 583 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 3: Flora's Well, we're gonna we're gonna put you over. You know, 584 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 3: you're you're the face. You're We're gonna turn you to 585 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 3: a face. 586 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: His defense is gonna be so devastating that. 587 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 2: So we win some games, all right. 588 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 3: You know, we're talking about the Vikings chances which are bleak. Yeah, 589 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 3: they're pretty bleak. 590 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: Ye. 591 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 3: But one of one of the questions that I did have, 592 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 3: and one of the things that I was hoping that 593 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 3: we would talk about in here, was just how much 594 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 3: do you put, like on the quarterback when you're looking 595 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 3: at some of these like success things, Because the other 596 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 3: teams in the NFC North that you're seeing that are 597 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 3: getting all the press are three very different scenarios. So 598 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 3: number one, you got you got Golf who just signed 599 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 3: a top of market extension. But you know, it's had 600 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 3: his ups and downs in the career. I think, you know, 601 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 3: probably written off by the entire community probably two or 602 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 3: three years ago. 603 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: You have to think about golf. His his down in 604 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: his career was that he didn't win the Super Bowl 605 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: like he but he was. 606 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 3: He was also not a quarterback that was going to 607 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 3: get you, you know, over that edge where Stafford comes 608 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 3: in over the top all of a sudden, Hey, we 609 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:01,959 Speaker 3: throw out more than fifteen yards down the far right. 610 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, sure, you know you've got Jordan Love yep. 611 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 2: Who's which side. 612 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 3: Of the season do you believe? First eight games he 613 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 3: was below average? 614 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: Yep? 615 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 2: And they tore it up last nine games and the 616 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 2: play in the playoff game against Dallas looked like another 617 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 2: SuperStar's superstar. 618 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: And if you believe in like if you're if you 619 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: play fancy and you think of like, all right, who 620 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: am I undervaluing He was QB five last year total year? No, 621 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: but you're right, at the beginning of the season he 622 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: wasn't there, but he was there for you at playoff time. 623 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: So I don't know, he's a guy. I think this 624 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 1: year he's getting undervalued in the fantasy here. I mean, 625 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: at this point, everybody's already traveled on their teams, so 626 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:44,959 Speaker 1: but yeah, I don't know. 627 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 2: And then you know, you've got the other one, Caleb 628 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 2: Williams number one overall pick pick. 629 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: We don't know. 630 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 3: And you've also I mean, the Bears had DJ Moore before, ye, 631 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 3: great wide receiver, but then they added Keenan Allen. Yep, 632 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 3: who I mean, He's not going to be your alpha 633 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 3: wide receiver, but he's going to play be a guy 634 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 3: in the slot and he's going to catch the ball. 635 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 2: And then you've got the. 636 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: Career last year for the LA Chargers. He is as 637 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: good as a guy as you're gonna find Keenan Allen. 638 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: And it's unfortunate he had to be traded to. 639 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 3: Chicago, but ye, and then you've got a rookie wide 640 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 3: receiver that's in there. So you've got the best past 641 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 3: catching talent that that team's had. So what you know, what, 642 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 3: what what door do you open in that division? Because 643 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 3: it does If the Vikings were average, then that looks 644 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 3: like it could possibly be the most competitive division in 645 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 3: the league. 646 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: It could be. That's the thing the Bears. I like 647 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: the Bears this year. 648 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 2: I'm I'm on, well, and the Bears had a good 649 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 2: defense last year. 650 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 1: I'm on the record that their defense is good enough 651 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: that it's going to buy kill Pats of time. And 652 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: Williams is good enough that he is going to be 653 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 1: an improvement for them from justin fields. But they're wide 654 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: receivers I think are much improved like as a as 655 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: a unit, and it's gonna allow him some like flexibility 656 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: on the offense. I love the Bears this year, especially 657 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: with their schedule. They're coming off of a weaker schedule 658 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: and and they're gonna catch the people by surprise. I 659 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: think their defense is really really good. The Lions are 660 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: gonna be good, but I think they're the team that's 661 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 1: just like, I don't know, you always get those NFL 662 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: teams that are that they're expected to be good. They're 663 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: gonna be good, They're not gonna be anything more than that. 664 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 1: I don't think the Lions are going to Super Bowl, 665 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: even though a lot of people are picking them to 666 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 1: go to the super Bowl. 667 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 3: And kind of, you know, one of the things I 668 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 3: was getting to on that quarterback thing. Yeah, it's just 669 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 3: like when we're going through this exercise and we're looking 670 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 3: at the quarterbacks and you're looking at You're looking at 671 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 3: the AFC side of like, hey, who's gonna win the 672 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 3: Super Bowl? And on the a FC side, you've got Mahomes, 673 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 3: You've got Lamar, You've got Allen you know, probably the 674 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 3: three best quarterbacks right now. And then waiting in the wings, 675 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 3: you've got you know. 676 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 2: The Joe Burrows, the you know Herbert, like you've got 677 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 2: all this quarterback talent. 678 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: Well, before we talk about the MVP, just a Herbert, 679 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: Let's let's do an hour on the North. 680 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 2: I saw you wait, like you were hanging on that line. 681 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 2: Was are you gonna throw Herbert in there? Are you 682 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 2: gonna throw Herbert in there? 683 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: You said, justin Herbert? We need to do an hour 684 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 1: on the North. And here's why, because the let's break 685 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: down the quarterbacks. Let's let's let's look at the quarterbacks 686 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: and then say they're why that team's good. Okay, Chicago Bears, 687 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: Caleb Williams. Is that why that team's good? 688 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 2: It could be. 689 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: See, I don't think that's why that team's good, but 690 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: I think he's a big part of it. So uh, 691 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 1: I think the defense is why they're really. 692 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 3: Now the interesting thing with the Bears, and you know, 693 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 3: This was kind of when we were talking about, you know, 694 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 3: themes on here and the Bears, Like it struck me, 695 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 3: like where when does it hurting stop?

Yeah, And you know, honestly, if we 723 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 3: would have been having this conversation last year at this time, 724 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,240 Speaker 3: it would have been like, yeah, things are positive in Detroit. 725 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 2: You know, it probably would have been very tough for 726 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 2: me to say, hey, they're going. 727 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 3: To get more than like ten eleven wins, just because 728 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 3: my entire life I've seen the Lions and yeah, they've 729 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:34,160 Speaker 3: just they've never been good. 730 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: They always had an elite talent, Yeah, one, maybe two 731 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: elite talents. 732 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 3: There were stars and scrubs, Like they would have Dominicansue 733 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 3: and they would have Calvin Johnson, and then they would 734 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,919 Speaker 3: have a team, you know, in Stafford's and a team 735 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 3: of scrubs. 736 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 1: Barry Sanders. I mean, you can go back and this 737 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: is just the history of the Detroit Lions. But they 738 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: are they are good, and they are a Super Bowl 739 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 1: pick for a lot of people this year. The Bears 740 00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 1: the Lions. Okay, no, but I am I am going 741 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 1: on a limb and saying the Bears could be a wildcard. 742 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 3: What happens when Caleb Williams loses an ugly game in November? 743 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 2: What happens when he gets cold and she cries. 744 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 1: I mean he's a crier, and that's okay. I think 745 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: guys could cry. But I think he rebounds. I think 746 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: I think he understands what it means to be a pro. 747 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,919 Speaker 1: He just seems different than some of the guys that are, 748 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 1: you know, in his status of first round pick and whatnot. 749 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 2: But he's very Rayola and uh, you know, sorry, that 750 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 2: was that was college football. Disregard that. 751 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 3: If you're here for the NFL show, disregard that comment 752 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 3: that that was a Nebraska. 753 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 1: We're not gonna sortable next week. So then here's the thing, Lions, 754 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 1: let's let's finish up with the Bears. Williams not the 755 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 1: reason why they're good. You say yes, I say no. 756 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: I mean, if they're going to be good, he's gonna 757 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: he's got to be right, Okay, Lions, Jared Goff, he's 758 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,359 Speaker 1: the reason why they're good. No, Yeah, I would agree 759 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: with that. 760 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 2: No. 761 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 3: So when I'm talking about those A list quarterbacks in 762 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 3: the AFC, well, the NFC look at like the teams 763 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 3: that you expect to be competitive. 764 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: They don't have it. 765 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 3: And you've got the brock Perty, you've got Jared Goff, 766 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 3: you've got you know, Jordan Love, like, you've got these 767 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:25,479 Speaker 3: guys that, yeah, maybe they could be schemes that they're good, 768 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,359 Speaker 3: but they don't have a track record of like, hey, 769 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 3: this is an MVP guy for the last five years, 770 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 3: which is. 771 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 1: The head that's been the NFL for the last thirty years, right, 772 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 1: I mean, the AFC continues to win the bulk of 773 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: the Super Bowls because they have elite a list quarterbacks, 774 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: you know, and a lot of those are Tom Brady, 775 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: but yeah, a lot of them are Ben Roethlisberger, and 776 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: then every once in a while you'll get Aaron Rodgers 777 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,319 Speaker 1: gets one, Eli Manning gets a couple. You know, like 778 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,400 Speaker 1: that isn't kind of been the like history of the 779 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: two leagues is the AFC will always have the elite 780 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 1: guy and NFC's got a good quarterback. 781 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,880 Speaker 3: No, that's a that's a that's a good point obviously, 782 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:04,760 Speaker 3: you know, with you fall in the Chargers me following 783 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 3: the Vikings, probably I think we've got our art built 784 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 3: in biases that are probably in there where I'm like 785 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 3: thinking here and I'm just like, I wouldn't say that 786 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 3: the bulk of the talent's. 787 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 2: Been like a FC. But yeah, definitely for the A 788 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 2: list quarterback. So when it was Brady Manning, Roethlisberger, like. 789 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 1: Absolutely hall of fame guys that has been on the 790 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:29,240 Speaker 1: AFC side. So honestly, we need to pause because credits 791 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 1: to me for making that point. Yeah, and you agree 792 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:33,839 Speaker 1: to it. 793 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 2: You didn't get that on tape, did you? 794 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: Oh? I did no prep done at all. That was 795 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: just me spitball. You came up with that off the dome? 796 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:44,760 Speaker 2: Did you write that walking down to the studio? 797 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:45,240 Speaker 1: I did. 798 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 2: I did. 799 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:47,280 Speaker 1: I was like, you know, what's a good point? 800 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, see again all life's preparation. You've been building 801 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 2: towards this. 802 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: All right, Well we got we have two we're talking 803 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 1: without the NFC. We're talking with the NFC or for 804 00:39:56,120 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 1: two days. So the Green Bay Packers, Jordan love. The 805 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 1: reason why they're good or not, I don't honestly know. 806 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 2: So the Packers, I mean, honestly, they're one of the 807 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 2: teams that I gotta have PEG. I think that they're 808 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 2: gonna regress a little bit. 809 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 3: I think I think they're going to still be good, 810 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,240 Speaker 3: but I don't think that they're going to be thirteen 811 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 3: and four. 812 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: A lot of film on now. 813 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,840 Speaker 2: Yeah enough, Yeah, Well that's so. 814 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, they were playing the worst schedule or the second 815 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 3: worst schedule in the NFC. 816 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,359 Speaker 2: They're going to play a little bit tougher one here 817 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 2: this year. I think where it comes down to it 818 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 2: is just still questioning their defense because their defense was 819 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 2: awful last year and they you know, they rightly fired. 820 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: How was it? 821 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 2: I don't have a punchline for that. 822 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 4: Damn. 823 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 1: This is a comedy show. We're in comedy like, this 824 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: is a comedy podcast. 825 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 2: I didn't even know we were filming today. Gee, I 826 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 2: didn't know this. 827 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, this. 828 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 2: Is practically my first time on the show. 829 00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 1: This season. 830 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, have to cry. I'm with you. 831 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: I think the Packers regress. I think all the reasons 832 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 1: you just gave. 833 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 2: But so they replaced the decordinator. Everybody's just like, oh, 834 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 2: well that's that's fixed, and it's just like, well, their talent, 835 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 2: like the defense is still a stars and scrubs like 836 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,879 Speaker 2: talent Like talent wise, they've got a great corner, they've 837 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 2: got some great guys on their defensive line, but they're 838 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 2: not Baltimore, Cleveland or you know, one of these teams 839 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 2: that's going to just shut teams down. I mean, I 840 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 2: would already. I mean, Detroit's got a better defense than that. 841 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, and they overperform, you know. I think 842 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 1: they're they're really good core that gets enough done. They'll 843 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: give up a lot of points though, I mean they're leaky, 844 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 1: but they'll get it done. So all right, So then 845 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 1: finally the Vikings, we already have the answer. Is the 846 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,319 Speaker 1: quarterback going to be the reason whether good or not? 847 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:49,879 Speaker 1: Mean he's not going to be good? 848 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's from a team building exercise. 849 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 3: I mean, if the Vikings were to just have a 850 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 3: bad season, like this is the time to do it. 851 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 3: This is it because they did trade those two picks 852 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 3: from next year's draft to move up to get you know, Turner, 853 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 3: and so they've only got like four picks. So the 854 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 3: closer they can be a first pick already having the 855 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,439 Speaker 3: quarterback already having that and if they can trade back 856 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 3: to get some of those picks, like that's going to. 857 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 2: Be a big, big thing. 858 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:25,760 Speaker 3: So, you know, the the Vikings are never awful, they 859 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,439 Speaker 3: never get over the top, but they're normally not a 860 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 3: four win team, right so I do think that they'll 861 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 3: win six or seven games, but I think probably the 862 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,359 Speaker 3: max they could win is you know, eight or nine. 863 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 1: Shoot, I bet I bet the over unders six and 864 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: a half. 865 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 2: Six and a half probably sounds right to me. 866 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're you're taking over, which is crazy right 867 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: now thinking about what other teams sitting. Yeah, you willing 868 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: to put some money down on that taking the over? 869 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,080 Speaker 2: No, I never bet any money on that. On that, 870 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 2: what's hero? 871 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: You bet money? 872 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:04,800 Speaker 2: You're just not betting money. 873 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, you features like that. 874 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 3: No, I mean we didn't have sports betting in Georgia, 875 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:13,960 Speaker 3: and well, I went to Vegas many times when I 876 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,440 Speaker 3: bet on individual games. It was always just like, well, well, 877 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 3: I'm gonna bet on this for the end of the 878 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 3: year and then what I'm to come back to Vegas 879 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:21,360 Speaker 3: to get it all? 880 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: Right? So here you are, you're living now in Nebraska again, 881 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: I mean sports betty's legal here kind of. And then 882 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 1: it's a quick trip over the over the riverage I 883 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 1: would have bet, I mean, are you back, are you 884 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: in the game? You get the juice going? 885 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 2: I suppose I could listen to this podcast. Yeah, and 886 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 2: this would probably educate me. This would educate you so 887 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 2: that I know what's going on. 888 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 1: And we are experts. Let's not forget that. Actually, if 889 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:47,359 Speaker 1: you are sports betting. And you want experts, I mean 890 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: the WTL podcast, you can find them. Where's the line 891 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: fantastic advice in Jabron, he's the Parley Pounder. He's crushing 892 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:01,839 Speaker 1: Parlays every single week, So that actually is like worth 893 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 1: a lessen. But all right, let's stick with the NFC, 894 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: And I know this division is going to get us hyped. 895 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:12,800 Speaker 1: The South so awful, what a trash division. Yeah, let's 896 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: what about your old stomping grounds in Atlanta. I honestly, 897 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:20,799 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, your old quarterback in Minnesota. But I love 898 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 1: the fact that they drafted a guy, they signed him 899 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:27,240 Speaker 1: to a fat contract, then they sign a guy behind 900 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: him to like you know, you know, that's just kind 901 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 1: of Kirkcuses' career is there's always another guy. But then 902 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 1: there's so much talent on offense. Offensively, they should be 903 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:38,400 Speaker 1: really really. 904 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:43,520 Speaker 3: Good, assuming that Kirk Cousins comes back true. Okay, yeah, yeah, 905 00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 3: I think that's the big wild card. And I think 906 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 3: there's even been some of that speculation out there that's like, well, 907 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 3: were they worried before the draft? Do they think it 908 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 3: was possible that hey, they needed a backup to sit 909 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 3: behind Kirk Cousins, like, was he you know, progressing Now 910 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:01,920 Speaker 3: it sounds like everything that we've been hearing for the 911 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,319 Speaker 3: last month or so has been good on him. I 912 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,359 Speaker 3: just I still don't really buy that team as being 913 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 3: a contender, right. 914 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:11,320 Speaker 1: I mean maybe in the division. 915 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, their offensive line is not the best, their defense 916 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,879 Speaker 3: is not the best. Now I know that they brought 917 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:22,319 Speaker 3: in you know, Morris, Raheem Morris, uh so you know 918 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 3: that defense is going to get some attention. They're free 919 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 3: of Arthur Smith, the head coach that you know, very 920 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 3: Mike Zimmer of him. 921 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 2: He got a whole bunch of like high powered. 922 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 3: Offensive players, and that was just like, let's keep these 923 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 3: toys on the shelf. 924 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:39,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like decoy only, and at some. 925 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 2: Point they're worth more if you keep the original packaging. 926 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 1: There's yeah, you hate. I'm gonna put them on the 927 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,840 Speaker 1: wall in the packaging pristine. I'm gonna get a grade 928 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,239 Speaker 1: eventually down the line, and then I'm going to go 929 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:51,920 Speaker 1: to the mall, the old Male like a mall that's 930 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 1: no longer even feasible. Nobody wants to go there is half. 931 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 2: Of the lots and is not even there. 932 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 1: It's a ripoff to borrow in the that's the new mall. 933 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 1: That's at the mall. Then uh there they have these 934 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 1: folding tables in the middle of the mall on a weekend, 935 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 1: but only one weekend a year. They're gonna have it 936 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: on display. You could buy it for way more than 937 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:17,919 Speaker 1: you it's valued. That's what we're talking about. 938 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 2: Right. Yeah, I'm happy I got that right. 939 00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 1: But I always thought, and this is just silly, I 940 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,080 Speaker 1: didn't watch enough Falcons games, even though I had Robinson, 941 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,360 Speaker 1: they're running back on my fantasy team. I just I 942 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 1: never watched the game. I just would watch other games. 943 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 1: I would just check his stats, which were never good enough. 944 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,400 Speaker 1: And Arthur Smith I always was like, that's their owner. 945 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 1: Why why are we talking about the owner that's not 946 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 1: the owner? Was always yes. Every single time they said 947 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 1: Arthur Smith, I'm like, why are we talking about the owner? 948 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 1: And every time I'm like, Ellie's not the owner. 949 00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,240 Speaker 2: I mean I knew that we can't talk about Dallas 950 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 2: not talking about Jerry. So yeah, it's done that same 951 00:46:59,080 --> 00:46:59,720 Speaker 2: thing to Atlanta. 952 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. And I love that owner because in the 953 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,279 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, that one where the Patriots came back, that 954 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 1: epic come back to win out of the game and 955 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:11,080 Speaker 1: he's down on the field ready to celebrate and get 956 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 1: the Lombardi and it's like, dude, yeah, your team.

So all I got to 965 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 3: hear from was the people who were there for it, 966 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,439 Speaker 3: Like that's not the same. Yeah, yes, no, I came 967 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 3: to Georgia and they started, you know, the Braves won 968 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 3: a World Series. 969 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,359 Speaker 2: Georgia won. You know.

Yeah, 973 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 1: we got eight votes this week and with Tony five 974 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 1: on the coaches poll. 975 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,400 Speaker 2: There you go take that. Get that Colorado win this 976 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:02,439 Speaker 2: weekend of a sudden, then we jumped. Yeah they could 977 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 2: you know, not maybe not after this week, but you know, 978 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:10,400 Speaker 2: oh yeah something like yeah, oh yeah. 979 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 1: That's college though. So in the South, we're talking about 980 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:16,240 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons. They're not gonna be good, but they're gonna 981 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,759 Speaker 1: be no contenders within their division. But that's one because 982 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:23,200 Speaker 1: the division sucks. Like the Saints, what are they doing. 983 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 1: They haven't been good since the Sean Payton years, and 984 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 1: they weren't even really good in the Sean Payton years. 985 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 2: There's still five they're still paying it off though. Well true, yeah, 986 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 2: they like that used to be their thing. They buy 987 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 2: a new team and then they would just kick everything 988 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 2: down the road. And that's true. They're getting some like 989 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 2: forced desterity here, like forced to like, hey, you gotta 990 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:42,720 Speaker 2: stop spending money. 991 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 1: They have to like five six years, do nothing and 992 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,960 Speaker 1: be terrible, rebuild through the draft, and then maybe be 993 00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,640 Speaker 1: able to rebuild from there. Honestly, right, they have to 994 00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 1: almost have like a hurricane, absolutely destroy the team and 995 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 1: then take a second, maybe hang out out for a 996 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: little bit, and then rebuild in order to have success. 997 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 2: Again. 998 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 3: That's there's some irony in the fact that Sean Payton 999 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 3: was probably just like, hey, I can't make it on 1000 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 3: these you know, the cookie cutter budgets just from paying 1001 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:16,359 Speaker 3: this all down. So he goes to Denver, who's paying 1002 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,320 Speaker 3: down a fifty three million dollar cap hit. 1003 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,879 Speaker 2: On Russell Wilson this year. But at least they're they're 1004 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,919 Speaker 2: done with it once they get that paid off. But yeah, yeah, 1005 00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:25,399 Speaker 2: I got I got out of there just to get 1006 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 2: away from the situation. Oh crap, I'm right back in this, 1007 00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:29,880 Speaker 2: right back in it. Yeah. 1008 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean I think that that's probably the 1009 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 3: problem that the Saints have had is just trying to 1010 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 3: compete every year, and you know, it's something that it's 1011 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 3: going to come up with a couple of other teams 1012 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 3: where it's just like, hey, you talk about that competitive rebuild, 1013 00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 3: Like we've seen some successful teams like do it and 1014 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:49,319 Speaker 3: retool and not lose their fastball, and then we've seen 1015 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 3: some of the teams, you know, like the Saints that 1016 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:55,240 Speaker 3: are just like, hey, you're you didn't cut it enough, 1017 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,040 Speaker 3: you didn't you didn't break it down enough, and now 1018 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 3: you're just forever mediocre. 1019 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:01,759 Speaker 2: Yep. 1020 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: And that's the thing. They're not bad. They're not bad 1021 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 1: enough to be able to take advantage of the draft. 1022 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:06,840 Speaker 1: Their mediocre, which. 1023 00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 3: You know, you brought up the breeziers, and I think 1024 00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 3: if you would have asked before the Breeze years, that's 1025 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 3: probably how you would have described the Saints even back 1026 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:15,840 Speaker 3: then with like Aaron Brooks and those kind of guys, 1027 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:17,520 Speaker 3: it was just like, well, they're not bad, they're just 1028 00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:18,920 Speaker 3: not good. 1029 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:21,440 Speaker 1: They had hope. Then they had hope too, even with 1030 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:23,240 Speaker 1: those teams. They were like, I think we can compete 1031 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:25,160 Speaker 1: in the division, and it's like, well, your team's ant 1032 00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:28,400 Speaker 1: And then they did have a run where they were, 1033 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:30,959 Speaker 1: you know, one of the lade of the NFL. But yeah, 1034 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,400 Speaker 1: it's caught up to them, and it's trying to regain 1035 00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:38,239 Speaker 1: that magic without the talent and all the old bad contracts, 1036 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 1: and it's just calumped. 1037 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,080 Speaker 2: And I mean, honestly, you can make that same thing 1038 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 2: for Tampa Bay. Yep. 1039 00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:45,439 Speaker 3: Tampa Bay's in that same boat. Like they went all 1040 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:48,120 Speaker 3: out for Brady, they got their super. 1041 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:48,879 Speaker 1: Around them, yep. 1042 00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:50,399 Speaker 2: And now it's kind of. 1043 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 3: Like, well, yeah, you got some of those A plus 1044 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,600 Speaker 3: players out there that they've been paying, but the rest 1045 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,640 Speaker 3: of the team's gone and uh, you know to the 1046 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,000 Speaker 3: point where even I mean Mayfield had a good year 1047 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 3: last year and. 1048 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 2: They extended them and it's like all right, well now 1049 00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,880 Speaker 2: you're kind of you know, this is your hand. 1050 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 1: In the Carolina Panthers or the other team at the 1051 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 1: South and they're absolute trash in the best way. I mean, 1052 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 1: this is like you maybe you can find some gold 1053 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 1: with him. This is like recycling. 1054 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 3: Well, they got to hope that because their team is 1055 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 3: so bad, that they got to kind of hope that 1056 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 3: they end up in like the Texans. 1057 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 2: Mold of just hey, you know, this time last year. 1058 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 3: Nobody was picking the Texans to do anything, and they 1059 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,399 Speaker 3: end up being that surprise playoff team, you know, riding 1060 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 3: an easy schedule, riding you know, young quarterback, young core 1061 00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:42,879 Speaker 3: and winning those games. Like that's got to be where 1062 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:47,920 Speaker 3: Carolina is just like they had the draft capital, like 1063 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:51,879 Speaker 3: they brought in Deontay Johnson, Like that was their big 1064 00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:54,319 Speaker 3: thing last year was they could the wide receivers could 1065 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:59,800 Speaker 3: not get separation. They've got they picked the highest running 1066 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:02,120 Speaker 3: back in the draft. Now, the dude tore his a 1067 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 3: c L last year, so it isn't going to be 1068 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 3: starting until mid season. 1069 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,800 Speaker 2: But like you've got some you've. 1070 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 1: Got some guys, but there you can't bank on doing 1071 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:13,279 Speaker 1: what the Texas did. I think that was kind of like, 1072 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,560 Speaker 1: you know, you know, everything just kind of came together 1073 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:18,600 Speaker 1: once and they're a team that I think is going 1074 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 1: to have regression this year much like the Packers, so 1075 00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 1: but the but the Panthers I predict gonna be laughs 1076 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:27,840 Speaker 1: in the division. Oh yeah yeah, and they could continue 1077 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 1: to rebuild, but they're they're a mess and the new 1078 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:34,320 Speaker 1: ownership has got to like kind of figure out a direction. 1079 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:36,760 Speaker 1: I guess where they're heading. 1080 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 2: But you know, I didn't even think about that angle too. 1081 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 3: It's like you think the old like crappy owner is 1082 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:45,279 Speaker 3: like sitting yeah, just sitting there like laughing it up, Like, oh, 1083 00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:48,840 Speaker 3: not as easy as you thought it was. You know what, 1084 00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,320 Speaker 3: you try it, he's swimming like Screwsge McDuck and his 1085 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 3: big you know, bault of money. 1086 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:58,480 Speaker 1: But before we started recording, we were making that same joke, 1087 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:01,800 Speaker 1: like you know, somebody writing a joke or telling a 1088 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:03,919 Speaker 1: joke and then it's a kind of bombs that it's 1089 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:05,719 Speaker 1: just like, oh, well, you try it, you know. So 1090 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 1: it's like the same thing. I mean, this guy buys 1091 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 1: the team because he's rich, and then he's fired as 1092 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,440 Speaker 1: head coach every season. Like it's just not as easy 1093 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: as it looks. But you got to have a vision 1094 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 1: and kind of be dedicated to it for at least 1095 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 1: three five years in order to see some type of 1096 00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:23,359 Speaker 1: semblance of success. But yeah, at least that's what it's 1097 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,359 Speaker 1: been in the past. But ye, all right, so we're 1098 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 1: done with the South. I don't want to talk about 1099 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:31,440 Speaker 1: the South anymore. So, uh, with one more division in 1100 00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 1: the NFC, with two more ship there's all these teams. 1101 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 1: We're gonna go to the West. Let's start with the 1102 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: Seahawks because I think they're interesting. They have a new 1103 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:44,959 Speaker 1: head coach. Even though I love Pete Carroll mostly because 1104 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:47,839 Speaker 1: of his USC years, I think those were fun. You know, 1105 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:50,480 Speaker 1: he had all these high profile guys. He had a 1106 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:53,279 Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy winner, Reggie Bush, which he did get the Heisman. 1107 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:55,680 Speaker 2: Back he left. He was getting. 1108 00:53:56,960 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 1: Of sanctions right because he's Jim Jim Armball method, which 1109 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 1: if we're seeing kind of history repeat itself. I'm looking 1110 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 1: forward to talking about the Chargers. But the but you know, 1111 00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:09,279 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll. 1112 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,000 Speaker 2: And everything, I hope where you can find it. 1113 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: Everybody was sitting fat, you know, they were getting paid 1114 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,359 Speaker 1: or they were getting houses like Bush. But either way, 1115 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:19,360 Speaker 1: Pee Carroll had a good and even ran off to 1116 00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:21,840 Speaker 1: the NFL. He had a lot of success in Seattle, 1117 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 1: and towards the end, it looks like, all right, we're 1118 00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna go different direction whatever, But nothing really 1119 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:32,319 Speaker 1: changed personnel wise, So I don't know what do what 1120 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:33,440 Speaker 1: do you make of the Seahawks. 1121 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 2: I like him, you're head coach. 1122 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:42,759 Speaker 3: They brought in McDonald, the defensive coordinator from Baltimore. Uh 1123 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:48,480 Speaker 3: So his specialty was slowing down offenses like the Chiefs, 1124 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:53,360 Speaker 3: the Bengals, you know, these spread offenses, you know Miami, 1125 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:55,359 Speaker 3: Like these offenses are gonna have to do in the West, 1126 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:57,880 Speaker 3: which he's gonna have to do to play against you know, 1127 00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 3: the originators Shanahan and then McVeigh and then also you know, 1128 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:06,120 Speaker 3: just when you look at that offensive side of the ball, 1129 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:09,799 Speaker 3: it's like, and this is kind of one of my 1130 00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 3: pet peeves, and it's you know, these coaches and we're 1131 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 3: going to talk about it a little bit later with 1132 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:15,799 Speaker 3: another team too. 1133 00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:18,200 Speaker 2: Of just you have this head coach that kind of 1134 00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:18,839 Speaker 2: sits on. 1135 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:23,640 Speaker 3: Their offense, like there they are a defensive specialized coach 1136 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:27,080 Speaker 3: and kind of like the Arthur Smith, like I don't 1137 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 3: even want to think about offense, Like why we're gonna 1138 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 3: stop from scoring points? 1139 00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 2: Why do we even need to worry about offense? 1140 00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 3: And so I feel like that might have been where 1141 00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:38,880 Speaker 3: Pete Carroll was starting to fall in there, especially with Gino, 1142 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 3: because you saw Geno have this really good season and 1143 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 3: then fall off last year even though he had still 1144 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 3: the Metcalf locket and then Smith Enigma Nigma. 1145 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 1: That's the thing. The Seahawks have always been blessed with 1146 00:55:55,400 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 1: either elite defense or really good defense, a running back 1147 00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,799 Speaker 1: that you could count on, and then talented wide receivers. Yep, 1148 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,200 Speaker 1: it just then it came down to the quarterback, and 1149 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:11,240 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson was that guy for a long time before 1150 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,759 Speaker 1: whatever happened there with Russell Wilson. I mean, I can't 1151 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:16,719 Speaker 1: wait for the thirty for thirty on what happened there 1152 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:19,560 Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson or just about Russell Wilson in general. 1153 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:23,319 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean Gino, Gino was really good. He 1154 00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:26,280 Speaker 1: had you know, the big the big game in prime time, 1155 00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 1: and then I didn't right back, you know, statement I 1156 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 1: was put on T shirts like it was awesome. But yeah, 1157 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:33,360 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to seeing the Seahawks have. But the 1158 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:36,960 Speaker 1: thing is, even if they are good, are they going 1159 00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 1: to be better than the forty nine ers. Yeah, who 1160 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,360 Speaker 1: are probably arguably the best team in the entire NFL. 1161 00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:47,239 Speaker 3: So and I completely agree with you on I don't 1162 00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:48,839 Speaker 3: agree with you on the Niners being the best team 1163 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:52,520 Speaker 3: in the NFL. Okay, but the biggest trouble I think 1164 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:54,279 Speaker 3: that the Niners going to get in. 1165 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 2: I mean, they've made it. They've been so close, yeah, 1166 00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:58,839 Speaker 2: so many years in a row. 1167 00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 3: Like they've got that engine that can, they got Debo, 1168 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,440 Speaker 3: they got a uke, they got kittled, they've got CC 1169 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:10,600 Speaker 3: like they've managed to keep all that going. At some 1170 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,400 Speaker 3: point you gotta start thinking that maybe they're going to get. 1171 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:17,080 Speaker 2: That hangover of just are they going to be. 1172 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,520 Speaker 3: Able to continue executing at this level year in and 1173 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 3: year out and just survive the grind? 1174 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:25,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. So you either get where because it never happens 1175 00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 1: where you just plow through everybody and you go on, 1176 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,560 Speaker 1: you repeat over and over and over again of being 1177 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:35,360 Speaker 1: in the final game, right. I mean so many years 1178 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 1: it was the Patriots, but even they fell victim to 1179 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 1: that very thing where the grind catches up and then 1180 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:43,880 Speaker 1: another team catches them, you know on Peyton Manning's cold, 1181 00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 1: so you know things catch them, right, So the Niners, 1182 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 1: you either get that where somebody catches them, or you 1183 00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:54,160 Speaker 1: get the mental thing of things get a little tense. 1184 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,840 Speaker 1: Some games are closer than they should be, and you 1185 00:57:56,920 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 1: start losing a few things, and then now they get 1186 00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:03,400 Speaker 1: the inside fighting. Now the morales down, and then suddenly 1187 00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 1: before you even know, you're not even in the playoffs. 1188 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,200 Speaker 1: Like that's a thing, right, that's a real thing that 1189 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 1: injuries could happen. What if went down, but. 1190 00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 2: If Bosa went down on that defense. 1191 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 1: Will go down on that defense. The Bosa's it's like 1192 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:22,880 Speaker 1: their middle name, injured. That's gonna happen. We talk about 1193 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 1: that with the Chargers, but that's the middle nuts kind 1194 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:28,600 Speaker 1: of their thing. But you're right, yeah, if if Nick 1195 00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:32,080 Speaker 1: goes down, yep, that's he's the hard right, I mean, 1196 00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 1: he's the guy, but they're the favorite, right, The Rams 1197 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,080 Speaker 1: are probably that other team that could catch him. 1198 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 2: Now, this is this is one that like the Rams. 1199 00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:44,800 Speaker 3: When when I was kind of thinking about this, like earlier, 1200 00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:47,200 Speaker 3: I was just like, you know, Seinfeld, they had one 1201 00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:50,280 Speaker 3: of Jerry's girlfriends. She was a two face. So in 1202 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 3: certain lights she was just the most attractive, you know, 1203 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 3: woman you could ever imagine. And yeah, and certain lights 1204 00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 3: you look it was it was you know, kind of like. 1205 00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 2: Off putting, like you know, what happened? Come back over 1206 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:04,560 Speaker 2: to this light, get the bat right, Yeah, and so 1207 00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 2: like I think you have that Like so if you 1208 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:09,120 Speaker 2: look at that, it's a broad sense. You're like, hey, 1209 00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:10,000 Speaker 2: the offense. 1210 00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:14,760 Speaker 3: Looks like it could be explosive, you know Stafford uh. 1211 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 3: And then you've got you know, Pooka and Cooper Cup 1212 00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:21,640 Speaker 3: you know out there most people would flip those two 1213 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,840 Speaker 3: and how they said it, but not me. Now you 1214 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,200 Speaker 3: you know, you got Kyron Williams. They've got another you know, 1215 00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 3: rookie sitting behind him. Like the offense like it seems 1216 00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:34,280 Speaker 3: like they've got the horses McVeigh Alwy's schemes. 1217 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:37,480 Speaker 2: Well, but defense you. 1218 00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:41,200 Speaker 3: Pull Aaron Donald out of that line, like where you know, 1219 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 3: how do you replace a guy that's won that many 1220 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:45,440 Speaker 3: Defensive Player of the Years. 1221 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 1: He's a guy too is every year he like toys 1222 00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 1: with the idea of retiring. He what's his head? Where's 1223 00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:54,960 Speaker 1: his head at? I mean, if he's super disciplined that 1224 00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:57,600 Speaker 1: if he's playing he's all in? Or or is he 1225 00:59:57,800 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 1: just kind of one foot me he's I don't know, 1226 00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:04,040 Speaker 1: he so talented. But whenever somebody is like might retire, 1227 01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:05,520 Speaker 1: you always think. 1228 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 3: Nice, I just stopped myself on that one, like, oh yeah, 1229 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 3: maybe Aaron Donald's like, hey, I'll come back, Like I 1230 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:14,040 Speaker 3: just wanted to skip training camp, right, But I mean 1231 01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:15,320 Speaker 3: you can always put a lot of that stuff that 1232 01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 3: you just said against the coach because mcveigh's been one 1233 01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 3: of those that we've it seemed like he won the 1234 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 3: Super Bowl and then kind. 1235 01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:25,160 Speaker 2: Of so lost a lot of that energy. 1236 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 1: So he uh, I just saw an interview where they 1237 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:30,600 Speaker 1: asked him that they were like, so, how close were 1238 01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 1: you to actually retiring? 1239 01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:36,920 Speaker 2: He said, how close were you to being rich and young? 1240 01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:39,280 Speaker 1: Right? Yeah, exactly, And that's kind of what it was. 1241 01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 1: He said he had he never had an official conversation, 1242 01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:48,600 Speaker 1: an official offer, and official anything for outside of being 1243 01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:52,920 Speaker 1: a head coach in the NFL. But there was talk 1244 01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 1: and there was somebody who knew somebody type of thing, 1245 01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: and there was enough of a talk for him to 1246 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:02,600 Speaker 1: think about it. And then he had to think, well, 1247 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:05,320 Speaker 1: if I go that route and actually talk about it, 1248 01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:07,919 Speaker 1: then I have to go. I have to leave because 1249 01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 1: that means I don't want to be a head coach. 1250 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,520 Speaker 1: He's like, but I'm not done being a head coach, 1251 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: Like I still have things I want to do so 1252 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:16,480 Speaker 1: I need to stay. I need I need to stay. 1253 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 1: So he never actually went down that route. It was 1254 01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:23,680 Speaker 1: more like, Okay, there's people who do want him, and 1255 01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:26,360 Speaker 1: there was talk, and it was enough talk for him 1256 01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 1: to think, but never anything concrete. I thought that was 1257 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,640 Speaker 1: interesting and actually awesome that he was so honest about it. 1258 01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:36,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, the fact that he's even like kind of 1259 01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:39,640 Speaker 1: dabbling in that, Yeah, young and rich and choosing, is 1260 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:41,800 Speaker 1: he gonna be Bill Kawer where it's like, all right, 1261 01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave this job and I'm gonna go and 1262 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:45,440 Speaker 1: do media and I'm gonna come back to head coaching. 1263 01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:47,880 Speaker 1: But it never does, right because at some point you 1264 01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:49,960 Speaker 1: just you lose it. You lose the juice. I mean 1265 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 1: you can't. 1266 01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:52,800 Speaker 2: Well that was one of them too, where it's just like. 1267 01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:57,880 Speaker 3: That draft that happened COVID year and it was just 1268 01:01:57,920 --> 01:01:59,920 Speaker 3: like a lot of the storylines that were going on 1269 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 3: after that was like you saw mcvay's like set up 1270 01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:03,959 Speaker 3: and you were just. 1271 01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 2: Like, yeah, you know him, him and Zimmer, Yeah, you 1272 01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:11,200 Speaker 2: know both got like why are you guys even coaching? 1273 01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:14,040 Speaker 2: Like you can hang out this room. All I could 1274 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:15,640 Speaker 2: see is this one room you could just live in 1275 01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 2: that one room. That one room looks beautiful. 1276 01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:21,920 Speaker 1: Uh but yeah, Belichick, who's got a kitchen like mine? 1277 01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:25,479 Speaker 2: With the dogs? That was That was one of the best, 1278 01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:28,640 Speaker 2: the best moments. I'm really excited about Belichick. He's going 1279 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:30,200 Speaker 2: to be on the Manning Cast. 1280 01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:32,720 Speaker 1: He is, Ye, he's on the man Cast. He's gonna 1281 01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:34,400 Speaker 1: do some things on McAfee show. 1282 01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:38,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. But yeah. Just seeing him at the draft like 1283 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,080 Speaker 2: he was able to I mean it's not like he 1284 01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:43,240 Speaker 2: played He didn't play off anybody for the laughs, but 1285 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:47,000 Speaker 2: he also didn't like just completely disregard, like they bring 1286 01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 2: up something to jest and he would go through the 1287 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:51,040 Speaker 2: actual like reasons. 1288 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 1: I actually hope he never coaches again because I think 1289 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:56,240 Speaker 1: he's gonna be more entertaining on this side of it, 1290 01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:57,560 Speaker 1: a side that we've never seen. 1291 01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:59,360 Speaker 2: For him, would be really entertaining. 1292 01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:01,440 Speaker 3: I mean just you know, you saw that the thirty 1293 01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:03,720 Speaker 3: for thirty or you know, one of those ESPN ones 1294 01:03:03,720 --> 01:03:07,000 Speaker 3: of Saban and Belichick. Yeah, Like, I mean they get 1295 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,440 Speaker 3: a podcast together. I mean that's probably going to cut 1296 01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:11,320 Speaker 3: into your listenership. 1297 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:12,840 Speaker 1: Is it. Are they doing a comedy podcast? 1298 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:19,080 Speaker 2: I mean, what what new horizons do they have? Like 1299 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:20,680 Speaker 2: they've dominated every other. 1300 01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:21,919 Speaker 1: They've got everything else. 1301 01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:25,520 Speaker 2: They're the comedy is next, like it's a natural progression, 1302 01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:26,240 Speaker 2: that is true. 1303 01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:30,880 Speaker 1: The last team in the last the Arizona Cardinals. No, 1304 01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:32,880 Speaker 1: we're not expecting much for them. 1305 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:36,600 Speaker 2: Right, I mean they were exciting once once Kyler came 1306 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:38,080 Speaker 2: back last year. Yeah. 1307 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:39,840 Speaker 1: Anything with Marvin Harrison Jr. 1308 01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 3: Though, I mean they got Harrison Junior, they got McBride, Like, 1309 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:48,800 Speaker 3: they've got some horses up that whole division. It's like 1310 01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 3: you've got the forty nine Ers and the Seahawks that 1311 01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:54,520 Speaker 3: are like, hey, they got defenses that are. 1312 01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:58,800 Speaker 2: Okay to good. Yeah, and then you've got like three 1313 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:02,280 Speaker 2: elite offenses and the Niners, the Rams and the you know, 1314 01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:06,000 Speaker 2: potentially the Cardinals of just being able to score points. 1315 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:07,960 Speaker 2: It could be a. 1316 01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:10,160 Speaker 3: Fun one, but that also could be one of them where, yeah, 1317 01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:12,160 Speaker 3: the Niners are getting in on a loud card instead 1318 01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 3: of a division win, right. 1319 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:16,320 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what I'm thinking. But that's only if 1320 01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:20,400 Speaker 1: they get into their own you know, mischief with them 1321 01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:23,480 Speaker 1: around in the locker room. Because that talent there, that 1322 01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:25,880 Speaker 1: the core has been together for so long, like there's 1323 01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:28,680 Speaker 1: really no reason they're not just when the division run 1324 01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:31,400 Speaker 1: away with it and then get serious for the playoffs. 1325 01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,880 Speaker 1: But that also is the recipe for disaster along the way. 1326 01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:36,600 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, you know you think about just that 1327 01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 3: drama for the Niners of just Trent Williams just ended 1328 01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:43,560 Speaker 3: his hold out, you know, I you just got his 1329 01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:48,080 Speaker 3: new deal.

I love him for the first like five 1485 01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:23,200 Speaker 2: years that he had with the team. Mike Tys Yeah, 1486 01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:29,320 Speaker 2: well Tyson Tyson. Uh Dice is like a value pick 1487 01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:30,120 Speaker 2: at the juke box. 1488 01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:32,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's not gonna cost you much, but 1489 01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna get a lot out of it. That was 1490 01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:35,960 Speaker 1: why you're gonna play a meat loaf song because it's 1491 01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:37,599 Speaker 1: gonna go on for nine minutes. 1492 01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:41,840 Speaker 3: That was when Red McCombs, the former Vikings owner, was 1493 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 3: trying to do a major league because he was trying 1494 01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:48,919 Speaker 3: to get the Vikings moved from Minneapolis to San Antonio. 1495 01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:52,240 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and the NFL basically shut him down, and 1496 01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:54,720 Speaker 3: that was when he decided to sell. But that was 1497 01:12:54,760 --> 01:12:56,880 Speaker 3: part of his reason for having Tys because Tys was 1498 01:12:56,920 --> 01:12:58,719 Speaker 3: the lowest paid coach in the NFL. 1499 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:01,160 Speaker 1: Oh, I thought they declined into the move because Mike 1500 01:13:01,160 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 1: Tyson was the coach. 1501 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,760 Speaker 3: And I always I was a Mike Tys truther back 1502 01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:07,920 Speaker 3: in the day because I always brought up I mean Tys. 1503 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:08,439 Speaker 2: Was with the team. 1504 01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:09,799 Speaker 1: You used to walk around that pencil. 1505 01:13:09,880 --> 01:13:14,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I remember that. Yeah, lately chewed. But he 1506 01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:16,120 Speaker 2: was coached for four years and it was like on 1507 01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:19,240 Speaker 2: average they had forty some million of salary cap like 1508 01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:22,040 Speaker 2: each year, like they were at the bare minimum that 1509 01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:24,479 Speaker 2: they had to spend, but they never spent to the limit. 1510 01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:27,559 Speaker 2: So it's like they never gave him give Tyson chance. 1511 01:13:27,920 --> 01:13:30,760 Speaker 1: I remember you used to also like always one of 1512 01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:33,240 Speaker 1: Moss people, but not like in football. You just like 1513 01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:35,760 Speaker 1: in the lunch line in high school, you just hop 1514 01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:38,320 Speaker 1: it behind him like all bost you just take the 1515 01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:39,919 Speaker 1: sandwich and why that's bullshit. 1516 01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:41,439 Speaker 3: I didn't think that that's where you're going to go 1517 01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:43,559 Speaker 3: with it, you know, the over the top grab. I 1518 01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:46,400 Speaker 3: thought you were gonna be like Boss when he's leaving 1519 01:13:46,400 --> 01:13:48,880 Speaker 3: the Vikings the second time, and I was like, I 1520 01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:49,519 Speaker 3: mean the lunch line. 1521 01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:50,679 Speaker 2: I wouldn't feed this in my dog. 1522 01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:55,960 Speaker 1: He meant that too, poor guy. We were there with 1523 01:13:56,040 --> 01:13:56,880 Speaker 1: Moss return. 1524 01:13:56,680 --> 01:14:01,160 Speaker 2: Though, yes I have I have the jersey from that season. 1525 01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:03,000 Speaker 1: To prove it. You know, that is why you listen 1526 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:08,240 Speaker 1: to this podcast. So we had the Cowboys. We kind 1527 01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:11,000 Speaker 1: of they're they're obviously a team that people are gonna 1528 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:13,639 Speaker 1: like look at to win that division. But the Eagles. 1529 01:14:14,240 --> 01:14:15,000 Speaker 1: But the Eagles. 1530 01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:18,639 Speaker 3: Has there ever been a team that you could say 1531 01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:22,559 Speaker 3: super Bowl? But also if they don't make the playoffs, 1532 01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:27,479 Speaker 3: the coach gets fired. Ye, Like I've never seen a 1533 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,360 Speaker 3: reversal because like Siriano, their. 1534 01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:33,000 Speaker 2: Coach like had full control. He had you know, the coordinators, 1535 01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:35,840 Speaker 2: he picked up, he was running the offense. This year, 1536 01:14:36,320 --> 01:14:38,799 Speaker 2: the GM basically said you're no longer running the offense. 1537 01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:43,320 Speaker 3: We're bringing in Keller Moore and we've also replaced you know, 1538 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:47,040 Speaker 3: Vic Pangeo is going to be their their decordinator. So 1539 01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:49,200 Speaker 3: it's just like you're it's like alwas putting a coaching 1540 01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:52,160 Speaker 3: time out. Yep, like this guy, wouldn't you. 1541 01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:53,880 Speaker 2: Know that wall right there? 1542 01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:56,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, but again it's like one of those things what 1543 01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:59,280 Speaker 3: they're successful, all right, you keep your job, but otherwise, 1544 01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:01,160 Speaker 3: like one hundred percent, you're gone. 1545 01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 1: This is a I mean, again, way too late fantasy advice. 1546 01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:06,640 Speaker 1: But Jillen Hurts was a guy that was there for 1547 01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:10,080 Speaker 1: teams during playoff time last year, even when the Eagles 1548 01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 1: are doing really really bad. 1549 01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was doing really really good and he's scoring points. 1550 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:16,839 Speaker 1: So he's a guy you can count on in the 1551 01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:18,920 Speaker 1: fantasy class. But it's way too late. You've already drafted 1552 01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:19,400 Speaker 1: your teams. 1553 01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:21,040 Speaker 3: I'm glad that you could point out, you know, a 1554 01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:25,760 Speaker 3: top five QB ranked quarterback for fantasy is hey, go. 1555 01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:26,320 Speaker 2: Grab this guy. 1556 01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:28,240 Speaker 1: Kind of my go too. I mean, that's why people 1557 01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:31,479 Speaker 1: listen to this podcast. But yeah, the Eagles, I mean, 1558 01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:31,880 Speaker 1: can we. 1559 01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:34,320 Speaker 2: Get everybody in our league to listen to this podcast? 1560 01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:36,800 Speaker 3: Like is this possible that you know, this could be 1561 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:39,200 Speaker 3: their their source of information before next year's draft. 1562 01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:41,679 Speaker 1: I think we get everybody, but Russ. I think Russ 1563 01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:43,360 Speaker 1: still doesn't even know what podcasts are. 1564 01:15:43,760 --> 01:15:47,600 Speaker 2: No, not a chance. So, I mean, it was just 1565 01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:49,600 Speaker 2: a marine and a cop. 1566 01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:52,960 Speaker 1: And in the Navy. 1567 01:15:54,120 --> 01:15:57,280 Speaker 3: I just want to say, you know it's got four jobs. 1568 01:15:57,880 --> 01:16:01,280 Speaker 3: I take back the marine comment, thank you. I just 1569 01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:04,439 Speaker 3: it occurred to me as I was saying it. You know, 1570 01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:07,000 Speaker 3: I knowed him that I respect of it very much. 1571 01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:08,879 Speaker 1: You know, my dad listens to this podcast. 1572 01:16:09,240 --> 01:16:10,960 Speaker 2: I know there's what it does listen. 1573 01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:12,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, I. 1574 01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:14,719 Speaker 2: Could see him challenging me to a push up contest, 1575 01:16:15,240 --> 01:16:17,000 Speaker 2: which hundred percent would not win. 1576 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:19,639 Speaker 1: Right, And if he doesn't do the push up contest, 1577 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:22,479 Speaker 1: you know Kyle will and he will beat you because 1578 01:16:22,479 --> 01:16:23,240 Speaker 1: that's what he does. 1579 01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:28,120 Speaker 2: So apologies. Love the Marines, good, but the cops they 1580 01:16:28,120 --> 01:16:35,240 Speaker 2: gotta go. I mean, all this could have been negated 1581 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:37,960 Speaker 2: if us just would have kept the jeep Russ getting 1582 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:42,280 Speaker 2: rid of the jeep. That was where my estimation of him. 1583 01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:45,679 Speaker 1: So who were we missing in the in the East, 1584 01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:48,360 Speaker 1: we have we have mom to meet them, all okay, 1585 01:16:48,400 --> 01:16:50,720 Speaker 1: all right, let's go to AFC. All right, all right, 1586 01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:56,040 Speaker 1: we've got the North, which has four teams. 1587 01:16:56,720 --> 01:16:58,200 Speaker 2: Good, very good, very good. 1588 01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:04,680 Speaker 1: I'm drawing like the Texans who don't play No, it 1589 01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:05,160 Speaker 1: was the South. 1590 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:06,599 Speaker 2: That's the South. That's in the South. 1591 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:07,479 Speaker 1: I've got that in my head. 1592 01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:09,160 Speaker 2: The Texans, well, this is this is a lot like 1593 01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:10,000 Speaker 2: the NFC South. 1594 01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:11,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is a lot. 1595 01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:12,120 Speaker 2: I like it. 1596 01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:14,200 Speaker 1: But but actually I think there's more talent. I think 1597 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:17,160 Speaker 1: there's more potential upside with this one because they, like 1598 01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 1: the Colts, they could be pretty good. We just don't 1599 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 1: know Richardson's capable of and they have some they have 1600 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:24,559 Speaker 1: some things going on there. I actually thought they were 1601 01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:27,240 Speaker 1: did pretty good without them, and they had Joe Flacco 1602 01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:29,320 Speaker 1: back in our bridges and which you know is going 1603 01:17:29,360 --> 01:17:33,320 Speaker 1: to be useful down the line. The Texans are going 1604 01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:36,360 Speaker 1: to take a step back in my opinion, and that's 1605 01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:40,160 Speaker 1: because of their schedule and also because there's just that 1606 01:17:40,280 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 1: sophomore slump on a lot of guys. Like this is 1607 01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 1: a really young core. They're gonna see challenges that they 1608 01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:50,760 Speaker 1: haven't seen before. And I think within their own division 1609 01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:54,040 Speaker 1: they've got some things that Like the Jaguars, the Jaguars 1610 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:54,400 Speaker 1: are tough. 1611 01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:58,040 Speaker 3: That's the thing is, like Jaguars don't have that epic collapse, right, 1612 01:17:58,280 --> 01:17:58,439 Speaker 3: you know. 1613 01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:00,759 Speaker 2: The Jaguars were like what eight and three or something 1614 01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:03,559 Speaker 2: like that. And collapse from there. 1615 01:18:04,240 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 3: Like they don't do that, then we don't get the 1616 01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:09,719 Speaker 3: Texans making the playoffs, we don't get that great game 1617 01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:12,720 Speaker 3: that they played in the playoffs. And this team's probably 1618 01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:16,920 Speaker 3: you know, a dark horse this year as opposed to 1619 01:18:17,479 --> 01:18:20,960 Speaker 3: everybody kind of anointing them the favorite. Now I love 1620 01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:28,400 Speaker 3: their coach, was it DeMarco Ryans came over from San Francisco, 1621 01:18:28,560 --> 01:18:31,840 Speaker 3: ran some great defenses. There had these guys playing really well. 1622 01:18:33,560 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 3: But yeah, I think people are probably writing off the 1623 01:18:35,479 --> 01:18:39,320 Speaker 3: Jaguars a little bit too early. And really you could 1624 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:44,080 Speaker 3: make the argument for the Stroud Trevor Lawrence, Anthony Richardson 1625 01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:49,080 Speaker 3: that they're all basically in the same spot of just hey, 1626 01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:51,559 Speaker 3: whichever one of these three guys puts it together the 1627 01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:53,720 Speaker 3: most win, their team's. 1628 01:18:53,400 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 2: Going to win the division. 1629 01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:59,519 Speaker 1: It was the fourth team Titans, the trash. They will 1630 01:18:59,560 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 1: not be good. 1631 01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:05,000 Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, they're going to be the bottom feeder. 1632 01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:07,720 Speaker 1: But I think they have just you know, they have 1633 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:10,800 Speaker 1: potential down the line. They just don't they have the bottom. 1634 01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:13,160 Speaker 3: Feed They have some interesting stuff, but it's kind of 1635 01:19:13,200 --> 01:19:15,439 Speaker 3: like I think they almost fit in that box like 1636 01:19:15,520 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 3: jack of all trades, Master and none, Like they've got. 1637 01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 1: This is what they got. Nashville's fun, so that's what 1638 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:25,320 Speaker 1: they've got going for. But the who do you think 1639 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:31,360 Speaker 1: wins this division? Which really comes down to which quarterback 1640 01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,679 Speaker 1: do you think pulls it all together the most? 1641 01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:36,040 Speaker 3: I think I think the Texans do take a step back. 1642 01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:40,200 Speaker 3: I think the Jaguars with this division, I don't think, 1643 01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:44,600 Speaker 3: like the Colts were fun when Richardson was playing, but 1644 01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:47,960 Speaker 3: he still looked like a rookie last year, and so 1645 01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:50,080 Speaker 3: it's just like you're you're counting on him taking that 1646 01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:53,840 Speaker 3: next step without seeing those without a full season of snaps. 1647 01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:59,080 Speaker 1: That's fair, but a full year of scouting and learning 1648 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:02,880 Speaker 1: and sometimes you know, being on the side of Carson 1649 01:20:02,880 --> 01:20:05,639 Speaker 1: Palmer spent an entire season on the sideline. The Bengals 1650 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:08,280 Speaker 1: came in and started year two and became a legend. 1651 01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:10,000 Speaker 2: Is that how it happened? 1652 01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:14,599 Speaker 1: That's exactly how I remember. Let's talk about the AFC North. 1653 01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:19,280 Speaker 1: Since we're talking about the Bengals, We've got the Ravens. 1654 01:20:20,280 --> 01:20:22,360 Speaker 1: I mean, they're you think they're the favorite, They. 1655 01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:24,400 Speaker 3: Got to be the Yeah, yeah, I mean they're probably 1656 01:20:25,439 --> 01:20:27,080 Speaker 3: no matter how you have them stacked, you probably have 1657 01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:28,120 Speaker 3: those guys in your top. 1658 01:20:27,960 --> 01:20:30,559 Speaker 1: Three, Lamar is probably already an MVP favorite. 1659 01:20:30,560 --> 01:20:34,679 Speaker 3: They've got I mean that they're uh And I used 1660 01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:37,120 Speaker 3: this phrase, you know, earlier today and it was just 1661 01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:38,680 Speaker 3: like it it seemed like it fit kind of the 1662 01:20:38,680 --> 01:20:43,040 Speaker 3: Milk Carton team though of you watch them at the 1663 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:46,799 Speaker 3: beginning of the season and then like five weeks later 1664 01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:50,120 Speaker 3: you watch them again and you're like, who are these guys? 1665 01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:55,000 Speaker 3: Like they've had such bad injury life, like everybody gets 1666 01:20:55,040 --> 01:20:58,400 Speaker 3: hurt and now they're fighting that they're brought in Derrick Henry, 1667 01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:02,559 Speaker 3: you know, Like so you would hope that that's going 1668 01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:05,160 Speaker 3: to be because Gus Edwards is you know, over trying 1669 01:21:05,160 --> 01:21:08,360 Speaker 3: to win a super Bowl with the with the Bolts. 1670 01:21:08,439 --> 01:21:14,120 Speaker 3: But like, yeah, you just like who, you know, who 1671 01:21:14,160 --> 01:21:17,840 Speaker 3: are those offensive skill players? Like this is the Lamar show, 1672 01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:22,320 Speaker 3: like he's one, and it could be the Lamar and Henry. 1673 01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:26,160 Speaker 2: If Henry learns how to run out of the shotgun. 1674 01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:30,120 Speaker 1: It's it's one of those things where he doesn't want 1675 01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:33,880 Speaker 1: to because everybody thinks he runs. He doesn't run, like 1676 01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:38,679 Speaker 1: the statistically he doesn't run that often. If he would, though, 1677 01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:41,240 Speaker 1: just think of what the possibilities are. 1678 01:21:41,760 --> 01:21:44,880 Speaker 2: I don't know, I mean, I have Championship. 1679 01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:48,880 Speaker 1: Speaking of milk cards, do you think back in the 1680 01:21:48,960 --> 01:21:50,479 Speaker 1: day when they used to put the missing kids on 1681 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:52,839 Speaker 1: the milk carts and then like the kids who were found, 1682 01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:55,439 Speaker 1: do you think those kids were like collecting the milk 1683 01:21:55,479 --> 01:21:57,880 Speaker 1: carts with their faces on it, like signing autographs with 1684 01:21:57,920 --> 01:21:58,840 Speaker 1: their friends and. 1685 01:21:58,760 --> 01:22:01,519 Speaker 2: Just that's That's immediately what I As soon as he 1686 01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:05,240 Speaker 2: started saying that, I was just like, oh yeah, like like, 1687 01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:07,920 Speaker 2: oh crap, I got the Jermy, I got the Jermy, 1688 01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:09,360 Speaker 2: I got guys, I got the Germany.

But like 1692 01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:18,240 Speaker 3: if I pulled a twenty three year old milk cart 1693 01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:21,559 Speaker 3: now right well obviously still full of milky, you know, 1694 01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:24,040 Speaker 3: and showed it to you, now, I mean, that'd be 1695 01:22:24,880 --> 01:22:27,559 Speaker 3: that would be worthy of like a season two premiere on. 1696 01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:31,559 Speaker 1: YouTube Season two premiere highlight. That would be the teaser 1697 01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:36,080 Speaker 1: for people to listen to this episode.

Well, I guess there's an aage limit for 1720 01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:39,000 Speaker 2: Amber alerts. I guess they're not gonna do for us. 1721 01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:41,000 Speaker 1: And they know where we're at. 1722 01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:44,560 Speaker 2: Everybody always we're in this room right now, there's soundprofre. 1723 01:23:44,560 --> 01:23:45,640 Speaker 2: I could see soundproofing. 1724 01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:50,280 Speaker 1: We're just we're building this thing. It's it's work progress. 1725 01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:52,639 Speaker 1: Can we talk about the Pittsburgh Steelers or what. 1726 01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:57,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, QB nightmare. 1727 01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:59,240 Speaker 1: They have two quarterbacks, yeah, which means they have. 1728 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:02,960 Speaker 2: None, but they have two quarterbacks that are also playing 1729 01:24:03,040 --> 01:24:07,240 Speaker 2: for Arthur Smith, a reoccurring character in our conversation here 1730 01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:09,840 Speaker 2: that's obsessed with running the ball. 1731 01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:12,759 Speaker 1: How is the owner of the Falcons running the Steeler? 1732 01:24:13,400 --> 01:24:15,880 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, you didn't know that. 1733 01:24:15,960 --> 01:24:19,519 Speaker 1: He you know, you're right, he's obsessed to running the ball, 1734 01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:23,080 Speaker 1: hates throwing downfield and using the talent around him, and 1735 01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:28,599 Speaker 1: he's got Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson's strength is the deep 1736 01:24:28,640 --> 01:24:32,000 Speaker 1: ball yep, ye deep bawl. 1737 01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:34,000 Speaker 3: And not like in the middle, not like any of 1738 01:24:34,040 --> 01:24:37,599 Speaker 3: these like short passes like yep, down outside the numbers yep. 1739 01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:39,719 Speaker 2: Uh. Yeah. 1740 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:42,639 Speaker 3: So it's just like that just seems combustible and kind 1741 01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:44,920 Speaker 3: of with that that makes you know, we talked about 1742 01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:47,080 Speaker 3: Zimmer earlier and some of these other coaches that kind 1743 01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:50,760 Speaker 3: of like limit there, like, Hey, I'm a defensive specialty guy, 1744 01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:52,360 Speaker 3: but I also kind of like sit on the. 1745 01:24:52,320 --> 01:24:53,200 Speaker 2: Offense a little bit. 1746 01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:56,400 Speaker 3: Like Tomlin's definitely one of those guys like nobody can 1747 01:24:56,520 --> 01:25:00,639 Speaker 3: argue with his track record. You know, the bull wins 1748 01:25:00,800 --> 01:25:02,040 Speaker 3: like that kind of stuff that he got with the 1749 01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:06,760 Speaker 3: Roethlisberger a you know, Antonio Brown years. But really since then, 1750 01:25:07,120 --> 01:25:09,479 Speaker 3: they've been famous for just not having a losing season 1751 01:25:09,640 --> 01:25:12,840 Speaker 3: and just being like nine and eight or eight and 1752 01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:13,799 Speaker 3: eight or exactly. 1753 01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:16,639 Speaker 1: You know, but just gonna say, you know, they're gonna 1754 01:25:16,680 --> 01:25:21,200 Speaker 1: finish with no less than eight or nine ones, like 1755 01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:24,160 Speaker 1: they will hit that. Yeah, that's what they do. 1756 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:26,600 Speaker 3: But how much of that is just Tomlin kind of 1757 01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:29,360 Speaker 3: leaning on it, like like, let's not play risks, let's 1758 01:25:29,360 --> 01:25:32,080 Speaker 3: not do any risks, Like all the wide receivers that 1759 01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:34,080 Speaker 3: have gone through that system and looked like they were 1760 01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:41,120 Speaker 3: going to have success, you know Juju deontayh. 1761 01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:46,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, Deontay Johnson. I'm trying to think not Plexico birds. 1762 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:47,920 Speaker 2: He was way way earlier. 1763 01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:50,240 Speaker 3: He was good, but you know, they've always had those 1764 01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:53,960 Speaker 3: wide receivers. Now George Pickens is like the latest one, 1765 01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:57,760 Speaker 3: but he's already had some of those diva tendencies and 1766 01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:01,439 Speaker 3: as somebody who lived in Georgia, those defa tendencies were 1767 01:26:01,520 --> 01:26:03,080 Speaker 3: very apparent when he was in Georgia. 1768 01:26:03,240 --> 01:26:04,759 Speaker 1: This is the culture of Georgia. 1769 01:26:05,040 --> 01:26:08,040 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, I can, I can say that 1770 01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:10,120 Speaker 2: because I don't live there now, and none of them 1771 01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:11,160 Speaker 2: can find Nebraska on the map. 1772 01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:14,519 Speaker 1: How the peaches that you eat while living fun. 1773 01:26:14,320 --> 01:26:15,240 Speaker 2: Fact about peaches. 1774 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:20,200 Speaker 3: No, so just you know, yeah, I think Tomlin and 1775 01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:21,920 Speaker 3: Arthur Smith together that's. 1776 01:26:23,360 --> 01:26:25,960 Speaker 2: Just bad. Yeah, this doesn't seem like a positive. 1777 01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:28,880 Speaker 1: So we got the Ravens, we got the Steelers. I 1778 01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:33,799 Speaker 1: don't talk about the Bengals yet. No, who am I missing? Browns? 1779 01:26:34,280 --> 01:26:39,960 Speaker 1: Browns are gonna be good, really really well. They're gonna 1780 01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:43,519 Speaker 1: be as good as a as a as a massage. Yeah, 1781 01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:48,360 Speaker 1: pre enthusiast, as a massage enthusiast, pre twenty twenty two. 1782 01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:53,320 Speaker 1: I think the Browns have all the potential to be good. 1783 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:55,360 Speaker 1: They have the talent to be good. 1784 01:26:55,439 --> 01:26:59,320 Speaker 3: They need they would need Watson to be good mediocre. 1785 01:26:59,560 --> 01:27:01,599 Speaker 3: They need him to play up to level of like 1786 01:27:01,880 --> 01:27:04,479 Speaker 3: forty eight year old Flacco, you know what they need 1787 01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:06,439 Speaker 3: to How did Flacco come in last year and all 1788 01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:09,160 Speaker 3: of a sudden, it was just like this team's got 1789 01:27:09,160 --> 01:27:09,800 Speaker 3: an offense now. 1790 01:27:09,720 --> 01:27:11,680 Speaker 1: Because all they need is somebody who can make decisions 1791 01:27:11,680 --> 01:27:15,679 Speaker 1: and managed an offense right because their talent's there. Watson 1792 01:27:16,120 --> 01:27:19,559 Speaker 1: is being paid to be an elite star, but he's 1793 01:27:19,560 --> 01:27:22,160 Speaker 1: not an elite star. Even in Houston, he wasn't an 1794 01:27:22,160 --> 01:27:24,320 Speaker 1: elite star. He had potential to be an elite star, 1795 01:27:24,479 --> 01:27:27,880 Speaker 1: and then he got into some massage trouble. But he's 1796 01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:30,920 Speaker 1: not worth that contract they gave him. And all they 1797 01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 1: really need is a guy that can manage an offense 1798 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:34,919 Speaker 1: because the talent's there. 1799 01:27:35,360 --> 01:27:39,599 Speaker 2: Fully guaranteed contract too. Yeah, there's no getting out from 1800 01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:40,160 Speaker 2: underneath it. 1801 01:27:40,280 --> 01:27:42,920 Speaker 1: No, and Cleveland certainly isn't in a position to just 1802 01:27:42,960 --> 01:27:46,240 Speaker 1: be dumping a guy with a fully guaranteed contract like that. Yep, 1803 01:27:46,640 --> 01:27:49,559 Speaker 1: but yeah, that's a you know, I hate I hate 1804 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:52,000 Speaker 1: saying the Browns. I think they have the potential to 1805 01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:55,840 Speaker 1: be good. They probably won't win the division. I hate 1806 01:27:55,840 --> 01:27:58,960 Speaker 1: to say that because my guy, MGK you know, is 1807 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:02,800 Speaker 1: from Cleveland. He's from from the land and until he. 1808 01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:04,800 Speaker 2: Dies and machine gun enthusiasts. 1809 01:28:04,880 --> 01:28:08,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I just for him. I would like to 1810 01:28:08,120 --> 01:28:10,640 Speaker 1: see some you know, Brown success, but that's just not 1811 01:28:10,680 --> 01:28:13,400 Speaker 1: probably not gonna happen, which leads us to the Bengals. 1812 01:28:13,680 --> 01:28:15,479 Speaker 2: Oh, I thought you were gonna make it. Tickets to 1813 01:28:15,600 --> 01:28:20,080 Speaker 2: your downfall joke. I guess I can't make him happy. 1814 01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:21,960 Speaker 2: I just have to get tickets to his downfall. 1815 01:28:22,080 --> 01:28:29,320 Speaker 1: Ye so is comedy podcast. That's the thing. Jojo Damsey, 1816 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:33,479 Speaker 1: He's he's got a different skill set. Man, different skill set. 1817 01:28:33,520 --> 01:28:36,719 Speaker 1: He's got some video background. That's why Johnny got fired 1818 01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:41,160 Speaker 1: and whatever. Johnny's just never willing to learn. That's his problem. 1819 01:28:41,400 --> 01:28:42,559 Speaker 1: Very stubborn guy. 1820 01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:47,400 Speaker 3: Anyway, this is going to be your most re listened 1821 01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:50,000 Speaker 3: to segment of the show the Bengals, because it's. 1822 01:28:49,800 --> 01:28:53,879 Speaker 2: Just gonna be Kyle Kyle fifty times. 1823 01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:56,160 Speaker 1: And here's the thing we've already talked about how the 1824 01:28:56,280 --> 01:28:59,479 Speaker 1: Ravens are probably the favorites of thee win the division. 1825 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:03,960 Speaker 1: This is the Bengals with a lot of talent on 1826 01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:08,519 Speaker 1: a this is the only year that matters ever again 1827 01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:11,640 Speaker 1: type of year because this team isn't going to be 1828 01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:14,439 Speaker 1: together like this after this year, and they know that 1829 01:29:14,640 --> 01:29:16,559 Speaker 1: and they're very upfront about it that this is it. 1830 01:29:17,200 --> 01:29:20,639 Speaker 1: That's kind of cool because they have swag and they've 1831 01:29:20,640 --> 01:29:23,400 Speaker 1: got guys with like the ego and the talent to 1832 01:29:23,439 --> 01:29:26,559 Speaker 1: be able to do something about that. I think they 1833 01:29:26,600 --> 01:29:27,320 Speaker 1: win the division. 1834 01:29:27,600 --> 01:29:30,519 Speaker 3: Oh and I think they're probably your best bet of 1835 01:29:30,800 --> 01:29:32,680 Speaker 3: I think I saw it like they were plus one 1836 01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:35,439 Speaker 3: ninety for like winning the division. 1837 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:38,479 Speaker 2: And it was just like, well those are pretty good, 1838 01:29:38,520 --> 01:29:41,439 Speaker 2: Like that's taking plus money. Yeah yeah, that's probably. 1839 01:29:41,040 --> 01:29:43,360 Speaker 3: Like the best bet as far as picking like a 1840 01:29:43,400 --> 01:29:45,160 Speaker 3: fourth place team to win, They're to win it. 1841 01:29:45,200 --> 01:29:47,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. The schedules ahead of on the talent there. 1842 01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:49,880 Speaker 2: You know, we talked about those competitive or those rebuilds that. 1843 01:29:49,840 --> 01:29:52,280 Speaker 3: You do, and that's Bengals are probably going to be 1844 01:29:52,280 --> 01:29:54,360 Speaker 3: in that bucket here in the next year where they 1845 01:29:55,320 --> 01:29:57,000 Speaker 3: need to do what the Chiefs did three years ago. 1846 01:29:57,040 --> 01:29:58,559 Speaker 3: They need to do what the Bills are doing like 1847 01:29:58,720 --> 01:29:59,320 Speaker 3: right now. 1848 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,800 Speaker 1: Also gonna still be talented enough to compete, but this 1849 01:30:03,920 --> 01:30:06,679 Speaker 1: is a super Bowl team that has to like put 1850 01:30:06,680 --> 01:30:08,120 Speaker 1: it all together this year because it's not gonna be 1851 01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:08,679 Speaker 1: their next year. 1852 01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:11,160 Speaker 2: I finally got rid of p Ryan. 1853 01:30:11,600 --> 01:30:14,719 Speaker 3: I mean that was two years ago, but Burrow's wrist 1854 01:30:14,880 --> 01:30:17,719 Speaker 3: derailed what would have certainly been a successful season. 1855 01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:20,880 Speaker 1: And that's the thing that Jamar Chase is holding out still. 1856 01:30:20,920 --> 01:30:22,479 Speaker 1: We don't even know if he's in a play Week one. 1857 01:30:23,320 --> 01:30:25,360 Speaker 2: You didn't you didn't see the new schefter to tweet. 1858 01:30:26,360 --> 01:30:28,679 Speaker 1: What does schefter say? Is it reporting on him now? 1859 01:30:28,840 --> 01:30:30,760 Speaker 2: Yeah? So I think I think he said something like 1860 01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:34,120 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase like there's Amish in Pennsylvania, but there's also 1861 01:30:34,160 --> 01:30:36,960 Speaker 2: Amish that live in Ohio, and so I think Jamar 1862 01:30:37,040 --> 01:30:39,679 Speaker 2: Chase is going to become Amish, so he no longer 1863 01:30:39,720 --> 01:30:42,439 Speaker 2: cares about material things. So the Bengals don't even have 1864 01:30:42,479 --> 01:30:45,479 Speaker 2: to pay him though. Oh wow, yeah that's pretty cool. 1865 01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:48,760 Speaker 3: So yeah, look for that Schefter tweet. I think that's 1866 01:30:48,880 --> 01:30:50,880 Speaker 3: that should be hidden here any minute now. 1867 01:30:50,880 --> 01:30:52,479 Speaker 1: If you're not, you're ahead of it. If you're not 1868 01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:58,880 Speaker 1: following Adam Schefter, Bengals reporter, Bengals reporter for ESPN, he's 1869 01:30:58,920 --> 01:31:03,479 Speaker 1: the beat reporter, you're just missing the boat. I don't 1870 01:31:03,479 --> 01:31:05,559 Speaker 1: know if you saw this, but I had one of 1871 01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:10,040 Speaker 1: the most asenine tweets this guy's ever seen. And this 1872 01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:12,519 Speaker 1: was a Bengals fan, not just a fan. He has 1873 01:31:12,560 --> 01:31:15,800 Speaker 1: a podcast about the Bengals, and he said, this is 1874 01:31:15,840 --> 01:31:18,559 Speaker 1: the most asinine tweet I've ever seen. And it was 1875 01:31:18,680 --> 01:31:24,600 Speaker 1: me commenting about I'm Schefter. It's just saying, you know, 1876 01:31:24,720 --> 01:31:28,040 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase because he went to practice. I think our 1877 01:31:28,080 --> 01:31:30,200 Speaker 1: eyes are doing the reporting. What do we need Schefter 1878 01:31:30,280 --> 01:31:32,880 Speaker 1: to write about? Like this is it we see that 1879 01:31:32,960 --> 01:31:35,320 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase is at practice. Because people were mad that 1880 01:31:35,360 --> 01:31:38,439 Speaker 1: he wasn't writing about Chase showing up the practice. I 1881 01:31:38,479 --> 01:31:40,120 Speaker 1: don't want to say that wasn't very asinine of me, 1882 01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:41,519 Speaker 1: but I mean I wanted to. 1883 01:31:41,520 --> 01:31:43,680 Speaker 2: Be on record. Yeah, I mean, you take a lot 1884 01:31:43,720 --> 01:31:44,479 Speaker 2: of pride in what you do. 1885 01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:45,680 Speaker 1: I do. 1886 01:31:45,720 --> 01:31:48,000 Speaker 2: You look at yourself in the mirror twice a day. 1887 01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:51,599 Speaker 2: You want you want to see Schefter standing at your shoulder. Yeah, 1888 01:31:51,600 --> 01:31:54,480 Speaker 2: you don't want to see some random podcaster from Cincinnati. 1889 01:31:54,840 --> 01:31:58,080 Speaker 2: In fact, what like, I want. 1890 01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:00,760 Speaker 1: To make a bold statement right now, er, I don't 1891 01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:04,640 Speaker 1: respect anybody from the state of Cincinnati. You don't know 1892 01:32:04,640 --> 01:32:07,240 Speaker 1: why because it's not a state. But I do respect 1893 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:10,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people in Ohio. But the city of 1894 01:32:10,080 --> 01:32:12,920 Speaker 1: Cincinnati I've got beef with big time. 1895 01:32:13,680 --> 01:32:16,360 Speaker 3: You've talked about your entire life ever since you immigrated 1896 01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:17,080 Speaker 3: to the States. 1897 01:32:17,360 --> 01:32:24,360 Speaker 1: Ye wait, ever since I came from San Diego. We're 1898 01:32:24,360 --> 01:32:28,920 Speaker 1: getting too off track. The Bengals, we both agree, are 1899 01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:33,479 Speaker 1: going to win this division. So that's exciting. Let's talk 1900 01:32:33,520 --> 01:32:35,200 Speaker 1: about did we are to talk about the South? 1901 01:32:35,240 --> 01:32:35,400 Speaker 2: We did? 1902 01:32:35,479 --> 01:32:37,720 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the North finally, but you're gonna wait. 1903 01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:42,760 Speaker 1: We did. Let's talk about No. I will never This 1904 01:32:42,840 --> 01:32:45,599 Speaker 1: is laugh with me. This is what we do, okay, 1905 01:32:45,760 --> 01:32:55,400 Speaker 1: AFC East East who we got all right, Buffalo is 1906 01:32:55,400 --> 01:32:59,559 Speaker 1: gonna be good ish, right, but not like the level 1907 01:32:59,600 --> 01:32:59,800 Speaker 1: they have. 1908 01:33:00,040 --> 01:33:03,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll find out if investing in past catchers is 1909 01:33:03,560 --> 01:33:04,800 Speaker 3: a good thing or a. 1910 01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:05,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1911 01:33:05,240 --> 01:33:06,160 Speaker 2: They're the test for ye. 1912 01:33:06,360 --> 01:33:06,599 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1913 01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:11,000 Speaker 2: Like they're talking about Dalton Kincaid, one of their tight ends, 1914 01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:14,040 Speaker 2: being their leading receiver and I like him. Well, I 1915 01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:17,120 Speaker 2: don't know that. You know, you pick a second year 1916 01:33:17,200 --> 01:33:19,559 Speaker 2: guy that's never had more than you know, seven hundred 1917 01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:22,559 Speaker 2: yards may be like, yeah, well expecting to get twelve 1918 01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:26,800 Speaker 2: hundred Okay, but uh yeah, so they'll be kind of 1919 01:33:26,800 --> 01:33:28,880 Speaker 2: that test case. I mean the defense should still be good. 1920 01:33:29,200 --> 01:33:32,840 Speaker 2: I mean, Josh Allen should still be good. 1921 01:33:33,520 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 1: He's the number one rated fantasy quarterback and yeah this year, 1922 01:33:37,360 --> 01:33:39,080 Speaker 1: which is silly, Right, that's one. 1923 01:33:39,040 --> 01:33:41,120 Speaker 2: Of the things I didn't understand. 1924 01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:44,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a that's a dig On Stefan right to 1925 01:33:44,880 --> 01:33:47,479 Speaker 1: say that we're going to eliminate hit and then your 1926 01:33:47,560 --> 01:33:48,840 Speaker 1: quarterback is going to be better. 1927 01:33:49,080 --> 01:33:51,920 Speaker 3: And that's the argument that they made for it, and 1928 01:33:51,960 --> 01:33:54,000 Speaker 3: I think about it's very similar to what the. 1929 01:33:54,520 --> 01:33:59,360 Speaker 1: Credit for the dig On Stean line there right over your. 1930 01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:01,320 Speaker 2: Right, over my head, right over my head. I was, 1931 01:34:01,360 --> 01:34:04,559 Speaker 2: I'm focused on the football. That's what we do here. 1932 01:34:05,240 --> 01:34:09,599 Speaker 2: Gotta keep your eye on the ball. But very similar 1933 01:34:09,640 --> 01:34:12,800 Speaker 2: to Tyreek last year of the Chiefs when used with 1934 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:14,960 Speaker 2: the Chiefs because they were like, we don't need Tyreek 1935 01:34:15,000 --> 01:34:17,280 Speaker 2: because defenses are just playing them deep and we can't 1936 01:34:17,320 --> 01:34:17,960 Speaker 2: throw the deep ball. 1937 01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:19,639 Speaker 1: And they won Super Bowl next year. 1938 01:34:19,760 --> 01:34:21,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and so they got rid of Tyreek and that was, 1939 01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:23,600 Speaker 3: you know, their argument I think for getting rid of. 1940 01:34:23,600 --> 01:34:26,400 Speaker 2: Digs too, was you know, Diggs was not the leading 1941 01:34:26,479 --> 01:34:32,519 Speaker 2: receiver that second half of the season. But where they 1942 01:34:32,560 --> 01:34:34,320 Speaker 2: took it to an extreme was they got rid of Digs. 1943 01:34:34,360 --> 01:34:38,080 Speaker 3: They got rid of Gabe Davis, like like Coleman, I mean, 1944 01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:41,160 Speaker 3: love his videos, but they're expecting him to, you know, 1945 01:34:41,200 --> 01:34:43,040 Speaker 3: be lifting that weight as a wide receiver. 1946 01:34:43,680 --> 01:34:45,280 Speaker 2: Otherwise I think there's only. 1947 01:34:45,040 --> 01:34:47,400 Speaker 3: Like one wide receiver on the team that's like caught, 1948 01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:50,519 Speaker 3: you know, caught passes from Josh Allen. 1949 01:34:50,840 --> 01:34:53,559 Speaker 1: I'm surprised you like his wholesome videos. You're usually more 1950 01:34:53,560 --> 01:34:55,760 Speaker 1: of like a born, hardcore. 1951 01:34:55,360 --> 01:34:58,680 Speaker 2: Born guy. Well, I'm in Nebraska. Now, you can't watch that. 1952 01:34:58,840 --> 01:34:59,519 Speaker 2: It's not legal. 1953 01:34:59,680 --> 01:35:04,680 Speaker 1: Well you can if you put your ID. No, you 1954 01:35:04,680 --> 01:35:06,520 Speaker 1: get a VPN from another state. 1955 01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:16,960 Speaker 2: Tell me more. Yeah, but no, it's a what about 1956 01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:17,439 Speaker 2: the VPN. 1957 01:35:18,320 --> 01:35:20,559 Speaker 1: We're talking about the Bills. I never know what the Bills. 1958 01:35:21,000 --> 01:35:24,559 Speaker 1: The Dolphins, which are another team that's probably like one 1959 01:35:24,640 --> 01:35:28,120 Speaker 1: of the favorites to win this division.

They have to play games 1980 01:36:23,400 --> 01:36:26,040 Speaker 2: beyond the first month of the season in the NFL, 1981 01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:29,000 Speaker 2: they do have to play games against teams that have 1982 01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:29,400 Speaker 2: made the. 1983 01:36:29,360 --> 01:36:32,439 Speaker 3: Playoffs, like so they're you know, not being able to 1984 01:36:32,439 --> 01:36:36,600 Speaker 3: just go off and tee off on them. And like 1985 01:36:36,720 --> 01:36:40,439 Speaker 3: their quarterbacks Tua and we know that, you know, ever 1986 01:36:40,479 --> 01:36:43,000 Speaker 3: since he got drafted, one of his weaknesses is he 1987 01:36:43,160 --> 01:36:44,560 Speaker 3: doesn't have that. 1988 01:36:44,240 --> 01:36:45,000 Speaker 2: That long arm. 1989 01:36:45,040 --> 01:36:48,160 Speaker 3: He doesn't have that Josh Allen Cannon Mahomes, you know, 1990 01:36:48,320 --> 01:36:52,479 Speaker 3: Cannon to throw it. And he hasn't shown that, you know, 1991 01:36:52,560 --> 01:36:56,080 Speaker 3: consistent ability to get past the scheme right. 1992 01:36:57,479 --> 01:37:00,240 Speaker 1: But they're so sexy, they are, they're fun of their 1993 01:37:00,240 --> 01:37:01,400 Speaker 1: head coach is fun. 1994 01:37:01,160 --> 01:37:02,719 Speaker 2: And it's just it's. 1995 01:37:02,680 --> 01:37:06,120 Speaker 1: Just you'd love to see them be a team that 1996 01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:08,360 Speaker 1: you're watching in primetime and games that matter. 1997 01:37:09,960 --> 01:37:10,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1998 01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:13,360 Speaker 1: I hope they I'm hoping that they have a successful season, 1999 01:37:13,400 --> 01:37:15,720 Speaker 1: but for all the reasons you just gave, I don't know. 2000 01:37:15,680 --> 01:37:16,240 Speaker 2: What they will be. 2001 01:37:16,320 --> 01:37:20,360 Speaker 1: But the Patriots for sure will not. That's a team, 2002 01:37:20,439 --> 01:37:24,040 Speaker 1: obviously on a rebuild, that thinks they're going to compete. 2003 01:37:24,120 --> 01:37:26,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't I guess we have a 2004 01:37:26,680 --> 01:37:29,040 Speaker 1: lot still determined, but I don't think they're gonna be. 2005 01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:32,280 Speaker 3: The most telling thing about the Patriots, was that may 2006 01:37:32,320 --> 01:37:36,439 Speaker 3: have said in an interview a week or two back 2007 01:37:37,800 --> 01:37:42,240 Speaker 3: that May had outperformed, you know, that he was performing 2008 01:37:42,240 --> 01:37:43,520 Speaker 3: the best out of their quarterbacks. 2009 01:37:44,640 --> 01:37:46,519 Speaker 2: Jacoby Brissett is going to be starting Game one. 2010 01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:49,320 Speaker 3: That's what you need to know about their season is 2011 01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:52,559 Speaker 3: because they have a tough schedule out there, and so 2012 01:37:52,680 --> 01:37:59,240 Speaker 3: we might not see May play until November. And it's 2013 01:37:59,280 --> 01:38:01,040 Speaker 3: just gonna give them if they thought, if they thought 2014 01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:03,680 Speaker 3: that they were going to, you know, compete, then that 2015 01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:04,479 Speaker 3: would not be the case. 2016 01:38:04,479 --> 01:38:08,240 Speaker 1: It would be the case. Yeah, who am I miss 2017 01:38:09,040 --> 01:38:09,799 Speaker 1: in that division? 2018 01:38:11,040 --> 01:38:16,040 Speaker 2: East? Dolphins, Dolphins, Bills, Bills. 2019 01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:20,080 Speaker 1: Oh man, who's the other one? We're missing one team? 2020 01:38:20,160 --> 01:38:21,160 Speaker 2: I just don't know how. 2021 01:38:21,280 --> 01:38:22,400 Speaker 1: I mean, they're not gonna be good. 2022 01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:26,640 Speaker 2: I watched this Pat mckichee the Jets and they have 2023 01:38:26,720 --> 01:38:28,519 Speaker 2: a quarterback on all. 2024 01:38:28,320 --> 01:38:33,280 Speaker 1: The time Rogers, So there, I don't think they're gonna 2025 01:38:33,280 --> 01:38:37,479 Speaker 1: be good, but I think they're gonna compete. Like I say, 2026 01:38:37,520 --> 01:38:39,200 Speaker 1: all right, they're gonna be good, but they're gonna compete. 2027 01:38:39,439 --> 01:38:41,519 Speaker 1: So I mean when I say that they're gonna be 2028 01:38:41,560 --> 01:38:43,920 Speaker 1: in the hunt for the wild card and they're going 2029 01:38:43,960 --> 01:38:46,479 Speaker 1: to be a team that's in the playoff hunt towards 2030 01:38:46,520 --> 01:38:48,200 Speaker 1: the end, whether they get there or not, they're going 2031 01:38:48,240 --> 01:38:50,200 Speaker 1: to be in the mix. So that means they're five 2032 01:38:50,280 --> 01:38:54,160 Speaker 1: hundred or better. But I don't think they're Super Bowl contenders, 2033 01:38:54,600 --> 01:38:57,040 Speaker 1: and they're all hinges on whether Rogers plays well or not. 2034 01:38:57,720 --> 01:39:00,320 Speaker 1: Like you talk about teams that does the core back 2035 01:39:00,400 --> 01:39:01,960 Speaker 1: up to be great for them to be gra I 2036 01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:02,559 Speaker 1: think this is one. 2037 01:39:02,640 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, because yeah, Rogers doesn't pan out. They're the Jets 2038 01:39:08,360 --> 01:39:10,719 Speaker 3: from last year, the Jets from last year where nobody 2039 01:39:11,280 --> 01:39:14,280 Speaker 3: was scared of them, right, Yeah, So like the defense 2040 01:39:14,360 --> 01:39:15,479 Speaker 3: is going to be tough, but you knew if you 2041 01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:19,120 Speaker 3: could put you know, fourteen points out, you're probably walking 2042 01:39:19,160 --> 01:39:21,000 Speaker 3: away with the WYE. 2043 01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:28,960 Speaker 1: So that's uh, that's that's the North South East East. 2044 01:39:29,560 --> 01:39:31,160 Speaker 1: So we have one division left to go. 2045 01:39:32,040 --> 01:39:33,439 Speaker 2: We only got two minutes left here. 2046 01:39:33,600 --> 01:39:35,840 Speaker 1: We have two minutes to talk about the AFC West. 2047 01:39:35,840 --> 01:39:37,559 Speaker 1: I could talk about the SUS for a half hour. 2048 01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:39,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to. 2049 01:39:40,439 --> 01:39:42,200 Speaker 2: It sounds like it seems like it could be a 2050 01:39:42,240 --> 01:39:43,280 Speaker 2: Friday happy hour. 2051 01:39:43,320 --> 01:39:45,400 Speaker 1: But we might want to come back to the AFCUS 2052 01:39:45,439 --> 01:39:49,200 Speaker 1: on a Friday happy hour. Yeah. I have a fantasy 2053 01:39:49,200 --> 01:39:49,960 Speaker 1: football draft. 2054 01:39:51,680 --> 01:39:54,599 Speaker 2: As you've spent your entire time.
