2
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 1: another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast. My name

3
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: is Dan hansis joined the room filled with heroes, Mark Sessler,

4
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: Chris Westling, Greg Rosenthal. What is up? Bullies? Hey Dan?

5
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 1: Another Sunday in the books. My only goal with the

6
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: show is too when they come out of the head

7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: shots that you look at if you're watching the YouTube version,

8
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: head shots, to absolutely duplicate the smarmie look on my

9
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 1: face in the photo that I for some reason picked

10
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,239
Speaker 1: this mighty shot. It's a it's a tough, smarmy a hole,

11
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: that's what I look like. It's like, the what we

12
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: don't want people to think of our show is basically

13
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: with the opening credits of our YouTube show, say, look

14
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 1: at these guys, these mediocre whites. Don't buy into anything

15
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 1: they're about to say. In fact, tune out and go

16
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: find something better. It pitches that, well, how's everybody doing?

17
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: I was doing great until you just hold my career

18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: down the river and these guys didn't work. Yeah, you

19
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: know those head shots. You know, you can only make

20
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 1: a headshot as good as what you got to work with.

21
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: You know. I blame myself in studio action poses. I've

22
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: been pushing this internally and it will happen one day.

23
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: Um all right, it is the Sunday of week five.

24
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 1: So much to get to. Um and Greg you said it,

25
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: and I think we all feel the same. You said

26
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,320
Speaker 1: it on Twitter. Kind of miss the Lions today. Oh yeah,

27
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: I think everyone around the country has been thinking that.

28
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 1: It's like, you know what that ten games slate needed

29
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: at ten am Pacific, A little Lions. A bit of

30
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 1: a weird week because you missed the Lions. Some strange

31
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: outcomes in games. You have Tony Romo and Nance doing

32
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: the the windless Broncos against the Charger. Maybe did Romo

33
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: have like a golf invitational outside or something like the

34
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: Glendale Invitational and he's like, this is where we're going.

35
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: He's pulling power plays and you're the honest hill for

36
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: you to stand to top and to try to defend

37
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: that he does not care about his job. Not enough.

38
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to be a golfer, be

39
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: a golfer. That's my stand on this. Get you like

40
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: an ESPN morning show with another time. I'm not the

41
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: only one that should have takes so far. What does

42
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 1: it end zero for? The rest of the group was

43
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: the other fire take the mediocre white head shots. What

44
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: if he just wanted to go bowling today instead of

45
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: announcing football? Would that be okay? That would be fine

46
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 1: because it would be just a leisure activity. Listen, that

47
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: will save that for another conversation. Maybe, uh, Tuesday show.

48
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: In fact, when we next when you next hear from

49
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: us on Tuesday, we're gonna be in London. We're gonna

50
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: be there all week ahead of Bucks. Panthers will also

51
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: be at that game at Tottenham Stadium, so we're really

52
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: excited about that. So since we're heading to London, why

53
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: don't we start the week five recap with the first

54
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: game of the season played in London was at Wembley Stadium,

55
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: and yes, an upset right out of the gate. Let's

56
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: get to it. This will be a second down and

57
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: ten for the Bears from the Raiders forty six yard line,

58
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: and here's chased back into the gun. He's hit on

59
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: the release up in the air. There's something picks up

60
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: b con Con He's got it. Hey, you go down inbound.

61
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: Keep the clock running. The Bears last use the time out.

62
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: The second interception of the game. Brent Musburger with the

63
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: call k CBS. Chase Daniel, listen to this music. By

64
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: the way, I got another hot take. Shadowy league figures

65
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 1: in this building, no backbone at all, decide to strip

66
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: us of our glorious primetime music with this generic slop.

67
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: You got me with that hot take. I mean, listen

68
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: to this turn it up, Nobile? Are you kidding me?

69
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: What a travesty? Anyway? Chase Daniel? What did you do?

70
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: The Bears backup QB airmail to pass with Chicago nearing

71
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: field goal range, the interception of Dagger for the Raiders

72
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: stunning on Sunday night at Wembley. How about that? A

73
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: great game in England? Cheers anyway, Daniel blew Itt, But

74
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: not before the Bears d blew it first on Oakland's

75
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: final drive. Mark Sessler. Yeah, I mean, if you told

76
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: me coming out of this matchup and what I would

77
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: have thought of it going in and what I watched

78
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: from the Bears, not only last week, but going back

79
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: to last season, that one of these defenses would have

80
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: come out of this game with no sacks and no picks,

81
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 1: and it would have been the Bears and not the Raiders.

82
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: Where it was the Raiders defense that hassel Chase Daniel.

83
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: I get that he's a backup, but he's also you

84
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: can't say that, and also pitched this line, Oh, he

85
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 1: knows Matt Nagy's offense. He's intimately familiar with this playbook,

86
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: and he's a veteran and he does good things here

87
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: and there when you get the game he had, which

88
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 1: was two killer picks, and I thought the issue here

89
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: was was Oakland Josh Jacobs on the ground and Derek

90
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: Bard doing Josh Jacobs is the real thing. Four point

91
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 1: seven yards per carry, a hundred and twenty three on

92
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: the ground, did through the air, and you got to

93
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: remember that Derek Carr is working with guys like Foster

94
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: Moreau and Trevor Davis, and they to me looked like

95
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: the offense that had a little bit more going. They

96
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: weren't perfect, but I'm a little worried about the Bears offense,

97
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 1: as I have been all season long, because to me,

98
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: in a game like this, they felt formless and they

99
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 1: need their defense to pile up turnovers and probably points

100
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: to get out of this season with anything more than

101
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: a wild card entry at best. Seventeen nothing lead for

102
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 1: the Raiders at the half, Chicago scores twenty one straight

103
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: to take the lead. Uh. And what follows is and

104
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: Greg it was the biggest shock of the game. Once

105
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: they get in the lead, I think everyone kind of thinks, oh,

106
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: it's over. Thirteen plays nineties seven yards uh in two

107
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: minutes of clock time. That's an unbelievable letdown by Chicago.

108
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: It's it's an unbelievable drive. Thirteen played drive that you

109
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 1: go ninety seven yards on the Bears defense to win

110
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,919
Speaker 1: the game in London, one drive after they actually had

111
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: the ball inside the Bears five yard line and fumbled

112
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: it early in the fourth quarter there down three. At

113
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: that point, you figure there's no way they're winning that

114
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: game at that point, but their defense got the ball back.

115
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 1: They were the better team throughout the day. You have

116
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: the Bears defense made a couple of plays. You mentioned

117
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: the Bears offense is gonna need that. I mean, that's

118
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: the only reason the Bears were even in this game

119
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: is that two of their drive touchdown drives were sixteen

120
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: yards are less because they had such good field position,

121
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: because their defense set them up. The Raiders game three

122
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: under nine yards on this game, the Bears had two

123
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 1: thirty six like, I gotta give John Gruden some credit.

124
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: I'm just shocked because when you watch when I watched

125
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 1: this team against the Colts, and when I thought, I

126
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: thought even stronger that they're not going to be competitive

127
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: in this Let's just think they're so lucky. Let's hear

128
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: from John Gruden, who, as you know, by the way,

129
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: this was supposed to be the game where the Bears

130
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: rubbing and Gruden's face the Khalil Mac. Where's Kalil Mack

131
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: in this game when they when they need a big play?

132
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: Gruden feeling good talking to the players after the game.

133
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 1: I have a news going here. I have a disco.

134
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: Let's all start dancing. I say, this, man, a fifty

135
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: six years old. That's the most fun I've ever had

136
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: to night. I'm so proud of you. Yeah, no idea.

137
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: I mean, we've been through a roller coaster already. But

138
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: once you prove today is one thing you can feed

139
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: anybody anywhere. Why I'm I think one of the biggest

140
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: surprises in the NFL is the Raiders offensive line. I

141
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: spent the offseason thinking they were gonna be terrible, and

142
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: they have been one of the best and maybe the

143
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: best unit on this team, and just from the comments

144
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: I was seeing on Twitter, it sounds like they imposed

145
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: their will on the Bears and even bullied them a

146
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: little bit. They they did, they played a great game

147
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: and and you know the defense made a player too

148
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: Tariko and doesn't have a massive punt return. I don't

149
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: think the Raiders are even in this game, and that

150
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: reminds me a little bit of the formula last year

151
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: where they needed something big to happen on special teams

152
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: combined with defensive chaos, and when you don't get it,

153
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: you get this game. But I don't come out of

154
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: this just looking at Chicago's mistakes. The Raiders deserve some

155
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: credit for going into I think anyone winning a London

156
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: game that's extra level because it's you don't know how

157
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: to manage that week. It's not you're not doing the

158
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: same thing. And we know the Raiders typically are a

159
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: house on fire and all the wrong ways when they

160
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: travel east, but they traveled farther east this time and

161
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: took care of Chicago. I I thought this would have

162
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: been like thirty one to seven Bears and and back

163
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: to John Gruden. I mean, this is this is another

164
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: popular offseason punching bag through five games, and now they

165
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: head into their by three and two with signature wins

166
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 1: in here, a great division win to open the season, uh,

167
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: the win last week in Indy, which was an excellent win,

168
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: and now of course beating a Bears team that a

169
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: lot of people see see as an NFC favorite. No

170
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: one expected this, No, we were talking two weeks ago,

171
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 1: is Derek are gonna, you know, be back with this team.

172
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: The thing is Car helps that offensive line look better

173
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: in pass protection because he gets rid of the ball

174
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: so quickly. And they're a good run blocking team, and

175
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: Trent Brown has been worth the money. They have the

176
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: best center one of them and Rodney Hudson, who they

177
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: may act made sure to pay before this year. And

178
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: then the league is a little more fun with the

179
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: frisky Raiders team. And frankly, the Bears hadn't played that

180
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,839
Speaker 1: well enough in the first five weeks to be a

181
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: four and one team. They they seem like a three

182
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: and two team that feels well. I would say I

183
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 1: might have been a little I might be a little

184
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: hard on Car to say keep saying I'm not sure

185
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: if he's on this team next year, but he's not

186
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: the reason they won this game. Derek Carr was fine.

187
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 1: He was super well protected from very steady LEA boring

188
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: one question on the film, it looked like we saw

189
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 1: a pretty gruesome Achem Hicks elbow injury, one of the

190
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: best players in the Bears team. Did you get the

191
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 1: sense this could be a season ender? I mean, it

192
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 1: looks I agree with you. I need to see what

193
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: the test show. But it was doctor, you know I

194
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: it's not good when it's dangling on the side. I

195
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: dialed up. I dialed up Dr Chow in between the

196
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: space from Packers Cowboys to the start of the show,

197
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 1: and he's it's not picking up my calls. He was

198
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: very busy talking to Silva's got Chow on the speed dial.

199
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: They talked toys a day. According to a little inside

200
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: joke there. All right, let us move on from this

201
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: shotgun snap Rogers second down holding left for the Tucks

202
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: down TA touchdown run in the interior of the Green

203
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 1: Bay line opened up a hole at Aaron Jones went

204
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: farling through Billy Turner and Ryan Blaga to two key blocks.

205
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: Aaron Joe ran Rick between them, love It, Wayne Larvy

206
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: and Larry mccaren of the Packers Radio Network it's talking

207
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: about going to a disco. Here we go, It's gotta slaps,

208
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: here we go. Aaron Rodgers is unbeatable at a T

209
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: and T stadium, but it helps have friends. Aaron Jones

210
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: scored four touchdowns and Mike Petton's defense uh force Dak

211
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: Prescott into three interceptions. In the end, it was a

212
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: thirty four to twenty four win for the Packers. Rogers

213
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: is now five and oh since Gerald World opened in

214
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: two thousand nine, and the Packers are four and one

215
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: and all alone in first place in the NFC North.

216
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: I know the Packers and we all had an eye

217
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 1: on this one because there was only two late games.

218
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: The Packers surprised this whole room because we all felt

219
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: pretty good about um Dallas's chance in this game. But

220
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: from the jump, Green Bay was in control. I'm impressed

221
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: that Aaron Rodgers is just playing like he did three

222
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: years ago, and I think maybe that should have been

223
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: a bigger takeaway from the Eagles game that just, hey,

224
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is bawling again. I know the final numbers

225
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: don't look crazy impressive, but some of the passes that

226
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: he made in the first half were those classic Aaron

227
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: Rodgers throws where he's making Robert Tanyan look good, and

228
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: he's doing it without Davante Adams. I'm not saying Tanya

229
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: didn't make I like Tanya right now, but when Rogers

230
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: is making those beautiful places, he makes you believe anything

231
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: is possible. He said after the game, it was his

232
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: best game of the year, and he doesn't care about

233
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: stats anymore. All he wants to do is win. He

234
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 1: doesn't care how anybody thinks. He knew this was his

235
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: best game. Well, I know, and there was there was jawing,

236
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: you know, forget more like discussion between Aaron Rodgers and

237
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: Matt the flower Head coach during the game, and we

238
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: we brought it up a few times so they would

239
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: keep cutting away to that, and it looked like there

240
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: was a little bit of tension here and there. I think,

241
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: if we're allowed all these other teams to figure out

242
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: who they are, this is Aaron Rodgers in a new

243
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: offense for the first time in a zillion years, And

244
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 1: if you take away a red zone collapse against the Eagles,

245
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,199
Speaker 1: the narrative around this team over the last two weeks

246
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 1: and what they produced is a little bit different. What

247
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: bothered me a little bit. They've got up real big

248
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: early and then they were struggling to kind of hang

249
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 1: on to this lead, but they're on the road. It

250
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: was a little clunky the close out, but ultimately it

251
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,719
Speaker 1: didn't really hurt them, and that's why they had it

252
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: just made the game four and a half hour had

253
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: it had several possessions that were fruitless, that featured some

254
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: big losses, and then they would cut straight back to

255
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 1: La Floura and Rodgers looking mildly annoyed about. It's really

256
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 1: the body language that is fascinating about the two of them.

257
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: It's always something to keep an eye. It just feels

258
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: like La Fleur is, you know, trying to impress him

259
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 1: or trying to convince him of a point that Rogers

260
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: is not agreeing with. And so it's just kind of

261
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 1: fun a little brother trying to convince big brother he's cool,

262
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: except one of them is the head coach. I don't

263
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: think we can expect much more out of them in

264
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: the second half when Davontae Adams isn't playing, Jamal Williams

265
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: isn't there, and Aaron Jones had another great game. It

266
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 1: makes you in between that that Eagles game where they

267
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: wouldn't give him the ball on the goal line. It

268
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: makes you even question that more. He has four tds

269
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 1: today and he looked like a goal line monster before this.

270
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,599
Speaker 1: What is your an eight two yards from scrimmage? I

271
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: mean he stepped up in a game that they needed

272
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: a playmaker and he made plays on his own. He

273
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: made Layton Vanderesh look bad a couple of times, and

274
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: you do not see that to him. He averaged five

275
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: points six yards for carrying this game, and he had

276
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: a ten yard lost on a run late in the

277
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Um Dak Prescott had a very strange game

278
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 1: because he threw three interceptions. Some of them were really

279
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: bad interceptions, I mean passes that left you scratch in

280
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: your head. You saw Jared Jones up in the box

281
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: after I believe the third pick, showing a lot of

282
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: anger and fresh stration. But he also threw for four

283
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: d sixty three yards and had some gorgeous dime shots

284
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: in the game. So it was an odd Press Scott performance.

285
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,599
Speaker 1: But Jason Garrett slammed that flag down in front of

286
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: the raft and got a fifteen yard penalty. And after

287
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: the game, Jerry Jones was asked about the referee and

288
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: in Jason Garrett's abusive language, his quote was, oh I

289
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: hope the little darlin didn't hear something he hadn't heard before. Well,

290
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 1: I think he did, and they made it clear it

291
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: was whatever came out of Garrett's not Darius Smith in

292
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: this clearly playing through. I think it was a knee

293
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: injury down on the field two or three times in

294
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: this game for extended periods. What a what a performance.

295
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: I think the Petton defensive performance gets a little bit

296
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: lost because of the fireworks at the end. But Petton

297
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: has been absolutely great for this and he finally has

298
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: a quarterback on offense, which he never had with the

299
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 1: Jets or Browns, a bunch of absolute non starters at

300
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 1: the position forever and za Darius Smith, and he's got

301
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: certain guys on defense that are absolutely tearing it up.

302
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 1: They had a few injuries today though they had. The

303
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: Cowboys also lost Lyle Collins and so they didn't have

304
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 1: Tyrone Smith starting. So there they have two tackles, including

305
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: Cam Fleming, who really shouldn't be starters in the NFL.

306
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: That's in something to keep an eye on, especially Collins,

307
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 1: who's maybe been the best right tackle in the league.

308
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: Dallas out gained Green Bay five sixty three to three

309
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: thirty five. So don't always um judge a game just

310
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: by the stats, but it doesn't. But it was even

311
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: the half, and it was seven days. The Cowboys moved

312
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: the ball, that wasn't the problem. They just kept on

313
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: shooting themselves in the foot. Amari Cooper eleven for two

314
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: and a touchdown. One of those was kind of a

315
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: garbage time touchdown, but that wasn't the It was a

316
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: strange game. And I'm trying to figure out now, West,

317
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: because I know you were big on Cowboys corner a

318
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, after that narrow lost last Sunday

319
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: night against New Orleans and then this pretty much stinker

320
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: performance at home against an underman Packers team. Where do

321
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 1: you stand on them right now? The Cowboys, I'm confused.

322
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: I'll need to watch this game. I was marine the

323
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: Broncos Chargers games, so I don't know exactly what happened,

324
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: but I did notice that a lot of people were

325
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: jumping on Kellen Moore in the first half and using

326
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: the word genius in quotation. Mark already. This was this

327
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: was anything that can go wrong went wrong type of

328
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: game that I know we have the cornered animal game.

329
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: Is that that too long of a name? It was

330
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: like Amari Cooper dropped. Oh, there's an easy term for this,

331
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: the Murphy's Law game. Right, it's a Murphy's Law game.

332
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: Early in the first half day, it's not like they

333
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 1: looked like the inferior team. There were just a few

334
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: plays like a Marie Cooper had a ball thrown slightly

335
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 1: behind him that he dropped and that turns into an

336
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: intercepted pops right, but up and turn into an interception.

337
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: And there was a lot of plays like that where

338
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: it's not like the Cowboys looked like a vastly inferior

339
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 1: I think they're learning to be a team that doesn't

340
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: channel almost directly through Ezekiel Elliott four straight quarters, which

341
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: has been the case for the past three years. That's

342
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: not the team they are right now in offense. All right,

343
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: that's a nice NFC rivalry. Like my official stance on

344
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, they're too talented to miss the playoffs, all right,

345
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: and check in Tuesday from London, where west will give

346
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 1: you more insight on his beloved America's team. More like Westlings,

347
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: it's got a lot of teams beloved is a stretch.

348
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: Oh no, he's bailing. No, I'm not bailing. I enjoy

349
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: watching them. I don't really, none of the teams are beloved.

350
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: Check out a great a f C rivalry this in

351
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 1: the North and here comes Justin Tucker for what will

352
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,360
Speaker 1: be a forty six yard field goal attempt to win

353
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: the game in overtime. Snap is good, chick on the way,

354
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 1: it is long enough, and it is good Justin Tucker

355
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: with a barn. And as if the rest of the

356
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 1: day wasn't close enough, that kick was hooking to the left,

357
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 1: looked like it would say a wide left, and at

358
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: the last minute they did right back in between the

359
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: op rights and the Ravens win it today in Pittsburgh

360
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 1: twenty six to three. Jerry Sandusky with the call for

361
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: w B A L West. You know, the more I

362
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 1: think about that, I bet Tucker did that on purpose.

363
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: He has that ability. Who are we to question the

364
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 1: means of Justin Tucky said, let me get seventy thousand

365
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: fans to get their hopes up in hines Field and

366
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,719
Speaker 1: then have that thing hook in at the last second. Anyway,

367
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 1: the goat Justin Tucker top to forty six yard or

368
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 1: inside the left, upright and overtime, giving the Ravens win

369
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: over the Steelers at Hines Field, A killer loss for

370
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh who followed one and four and Baltimore UM improves

371
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,719
Speaker 1: the three and two UM West, What did you learn

372
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 1: from these two teams on Sunday? The Steelers still don't

373
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,640
Speaker 1: trust their offense, and that's been the case since Big

374
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: Ben went down UM, and it's really bitten them a

375
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: little bit. I think two situations in this game really

376
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 1: point out the first one, UM more wild catching anigans.

377
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: I feel like they've fallen too hard in love with

378
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: their own creativity. The coaching staff Jalen Samuel's through an

379
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 1: interception deep in Pittsburgh's own territory. The Ravens went and

380
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 1: converted that for an easy touchdown. Lamar Jackson threw a

381
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 1: pair of interceptions in his own territory and Mason Rudolph

382
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: was only able to get field goals out of those.

383
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: And then the other thing was in overtime. I think

384
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: it was like the sixteenth time since the nineteen sixties

385
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: and a coach won the coin toss and elected to

386
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: put his defense on the field, and that was Mike

387
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: Tomlin defense did great stuffed mark Ingram then sacked Lamar Jackson,

388
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 1: then held on third down, forced to punt. Second play

389
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: of the Steelers drive. Marlon Humphrey great play to punch

390
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: the ball out of Juju Smith Schuster's hands. And you

391
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 1: know the pro late spheroid bounce is funny. You can't

392
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: control it. And uh, Devlin Hodges who came onto quarterback

393
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: was too busy boxing out the defender and didn't fall

394
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: on the ball. Yeah. I would have quite called a

395
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: Cam Newton in Super Bowl fifty moment for young Devlon,

396
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: but uh, it showed maybe a lack of awareness in

397
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: the moment that go get that football. The ball was

398
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: bouncing in one direction and then it changed directions that

399
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 1: both teams right that he seem more occupied by the

400
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: opponent near him than going after the ball. But you

401
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 1: know what, it's moving very fast the game. Let's not

402
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: get out Devilon Hodges in the game. Because Mason Rudolph

403
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: lest suffer is one of the scarier head injuries you'll see. Uh,

404
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 1: you want to dig in on that a little bit.

405
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph got hit by Earl Thomas on what I

406
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: thought was his best play of the of the game,

407
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: Mason Rudolf's best play to avoid pressure and pick up

408
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: a third down to James Washington, and then Washington was

409
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: injured UH and was lost for the game. So both

410
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: those guys got injured. UH. Devil and Hodges came in

411
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: um and looked pretty poised. There was one play where

412
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: his arm strength limitation showed up. He was throwing off

413
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: one ft on the run, fairly deep down the field

414
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: and just couldn't put any mustard on it. Earl Thomas

415
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: picked it off and it was called back on a

416
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: defensive holding, but it was a little worrisome the lack

417
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 1: of arm strength on the throw. UM. I thought he

418
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: played about as well as you could expect an undrafted

419
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 1: rookie to play. He's an undrafted rookie from Sandford. Who

420
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: is gonna be uh called the next Sunday Night on

421
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 1: NBC by Al Michaels and Chris Collinsworth and less Mason.

422
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,680
Speaker 1: It's too late now. I told them a week ago,

423
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,120
Speaker 1: why what is up of these self? And post deadlines?

424
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 1: Pushed the deadline they at Devlin Hodges rule. Let the

425
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: records show he immediately came in and with the aid

426
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: of one bag call, and another questionable call let a

427
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: touchdown drive and to go ahead touchdown drive for the

428
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 1: first lead of the day. Then the next drive let

429
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 1: a field goal drive featuring his own twenty one yard scramble. Right,

430
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: the offense, you know, probably isn't going to get that

431
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: much worse because what they had eleven or twelve drives

432
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: and they had two hundred and sixty nine yards in

433
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: the game, So neither team moved the ball at all

434
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 1: despite the score being looking normal, and this this sound.

435
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: It looks like a game dominated by defense, kind of

436
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 1: like you'd expect old Ravens Steelers games to be. I

437
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: I come out a little concern about but we're not

438
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 1: gonna find out next week because they play the Bengals,

439
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: and I'm sure they can course correct for a week

440
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: at least. But Lamar Jackson five picks, I know they're

441
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: not all on him. There were some weird ball bouncing

442
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: or in business today. Three pick but today and two

443
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,920
Speaker 1: last weeks week and nine sacks because it's the protection

444
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 1: breaking down, forcing him into some weird throws and stuff

445
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: that I know. They beat up rough and tumble, ugly

446
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: teams early, but they're not a team that's also doing

447
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: the thing they did late last year where they're running

448
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: for two d and twenty eight yards again and out

449
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: physically knew they're trying to do both now and it's

450
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: not really working out well. A couple of things. The

451
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 1: Steelers defense, I think they're gonna sack a lot of

452
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: quarterbacks five. Um, they get after it that defensive line.

453
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: But it's the second week in a row where Lamar

454
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 1: Jackson ran into some sacks. He likes to run around

455
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: and do figure eights in the backfield because he's explosive

456
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 1: enough to turn those into big plays. Um. But they

457
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: might have to go back to the drawing board a

458
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: little bit. I will say though, that you got the

459
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: sense during this entire game that the Ravens trusted their

460
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: offense and they can run guys over once in a

461
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: while and they can move the sticks, whereas with the

462
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: Steelers it just feels like it's band aid after band

463
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 1: aid after band aid. I would say, now five weeks

464
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: into the season, the a f C. North is so

465
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: much different, um than I thought it would be, because

466
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: you have the Steelers are more or less dead in

467
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: the water now at and four on their third quarterback.

468
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: There's no coming back from that, most likely Cincinnati's one

469
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,479
Speaker 1: of the worst teams in football. The Ravens clearly at

470
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 1: flaws we talked about going into this game, their issues

471
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 1: on defense. It's hard to get a gauge on how

472
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: much better the defense is when facing They lost starting

473
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: safety Tony Jefferson to an a c L injury. Right

474
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: he's done for the season. That's going to really hurt them.

475
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: They just seem to be a team that's that can

476
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 1: have good weeks and very bad weeks. Leaves the door

477
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: open for the Browns market. I think the game on

478
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 1: Monday night, if the Browns ball out against San Francisco,

479
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: the talk of the league in terms of this division

480
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: is that this is the Browns Division. Well, I mean,

481
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: it's so unusual because the f C North usually puts

482
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: up two or three major blockades to one of the

483
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 1: third teams trying to get into the postseason. I think

484
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: I vowed in August the three teams from the North

485
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 1: would make the playoffs. So just another listen, not to

486
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: another reminder a single thing that I say. Ever, basically, uh,

487
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: that Rudolph injury was scary. One of the scary Whenever

488
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 1: they're taking the face mask off, and there's they were.

489
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 1: They were claiming it a big victory that he was

490
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: walking They were charcause when you take the face mask off,

491
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: which never happens, and you're walking off under kind of

492
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 1: under your own power, you actually see in his face

493
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 1: that he did not know where he was that was there. Well,

494
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: he was his hit. He was down on the ground

495
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: unconscious for a while. The Dolphins are at home watching

496
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 1: that Tucker kick go in, though, and they're they're celebrating.

497
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: They're like, we got two picks in the top five

498
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 1: right now, Ami Dolphins or a team that may come

499
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 1: steal the number one pick. Watch out my Jets, by

500
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 1: the way, and we'll get to them. Let's move on.

501
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: Jets are coming out, rushing seven others back inside the

502
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 1: five yard line. Here we go. Mintu in trouble, Addison

503
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 1: chasing Addison. Still give me Chase, Minshu reversed his out,

504
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 1: Minshu throw short of the goal line. Keepy taps it away,

505
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 1: no flax, and the Carolina Panthers on Hall of Honor

506
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: Weekend survive Jacksonville to go to three inch Mick mix

507
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 1: and Panther's radio network with the call Gardner. Minshew got

508
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: three shots at a inspiration. He even the final seconds

509
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:06,439
Speaker 1: each prayer unanswered, and the Panthers win over the Jackson

510
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: Charlotte two stars carried the day from Carolina Christian McCaffrey,

511
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 1: who tied a career high with two thirty seven yards

512
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,959
Speaker 1: from scrimmage of three touchdowns, and Brian Burns, who returned

513
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: to FUM both fifty six yards for a TV and

514
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: a strip sack of Minshew. Quite a three week stretch

515
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 1: for the suddenly three and two Panthers a sizzler. Well,

516
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what you mean by ad like, Okay,

517
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 1: I agree this game. If you went in thinking here

518
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 1: are four or five things I think I'm gonna see,

519
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,919
Speaker 1: I think you saw all of them. And you mentioned

520
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 1: something that Christian McCaffrey is the most interesting, complete electric

521
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: football player out there right now. Put some respect on

522
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 1: his name. Who isn't anyone him? Jim Brown and O. J.

523
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 1: Simpson have the most yards from scrimmage in the first

524
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 1: five games in NFL. And you know what's coming because

525
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,879
Speaker 1: let's called him a poor man's album, Kamara. That was

526
00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 1: a regrettable thing. He's not anyone's for me. I'd take

527
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: all of Carolina's You know, hatred and tomatoes and whatever

528
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 1: you want. That was bad. I think he was a

529
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,439
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl snub last year, if I'm not mistaken, and

530
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 1: and so at this point, he's everything you could award wise,

531
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: you could hand out, and he just what he does

532
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 1: physically is it's not just compiling numbers. He's he's just

533
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 1: magical as an athlete. And aren't that many guys that

534
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: get me excited from that angle at this point after

535
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: watching a billion games, But he does what he's like

536
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: doing things, and that that touchdown they just showed is

537
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: another example. I think the Panthers defense you can count

538
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: on now to make game changing plays and amp up

539
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: an offense that does have a backup quarterback in there.

540
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 1: Burns is a rookie defensive Rookie of the Year candidate

541
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: if he's not the lead right now at this point,

542
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 1: dude has been doing this since the preseason. And you

543
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 1: also got Gardner Minshew connecting with DJ Shark, which he's

544
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: been telling you he's gonna do week after week all

545
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: season long. Chark is a star in the making, and

546
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: they got that last minute magic or would be magic

547
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: from Minshew and they came very close to tying a

548
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 1: game thanks to a missed extra point by the Panthers.

549
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: And I know that this hurts if you're two and three,

550
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,400
Speaker 1: if you're Jacksonville, but you just get the sense that

551
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 1: both of these teams are gonna be knocking on the

552
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,360
Speaker 1: door and playing games in weeks sixteen, maybe even week

553
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 1: seventeen that have January implications because they both for all

554
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: their injured players and weaknesses, refused to die. And I

555
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 1: we mentioned this on sky. I don't know what you

556
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 1: do if you're Jacksonville when Nick Foles is available because

557
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: this quarterback that's fine. But I'm just saying, as it

558
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 1: is a lifetime in the NFL, it is, well, it is.

559
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 1: But we talked about we talked about a billion things

560
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: that that are down the road, and I think that

561
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 1: that you've just found it the best rookie quarterback of

562
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,439
Speaker 1: the group at the moment. I think I believe that

563
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 1: you have to stick with him. If he keeps playing well,

564
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: you have to stick with him. And I thought it

565
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: was interesting after the game one of their beat writers,

566
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 1: I hope I'm saying his name correctly, car Lyon hayes Um.

567
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 1: Someone asked him, is is Gardner minshewa franchise quarterback in

568
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 1: your eyes, and he said, yes, I think the way

569
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 1: he's played right now if he maintains that where he's

570
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 1: avoiding mistakes, unlike Kyle Allen, who you know, continued to

571
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 1: have some interceptions in this game or lost fumbles. Rather,

572
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: the Panthers just need to get to Cam Newton in

573
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: decent shape. They they're winning games. I don't think there's

574
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 1: certainly not going to be any quarterback controversy. But it's

575
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 1: pretty amazing who they played without today. I mean, they

576
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: didn't have Trade Turner, he's an All Pro guard. They

577
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: didn't have their former m v P and Newton. They

578
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,239
Speaker 1: didn't have their best defensive player in KK Short. They

579
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: didn't have left tackle okay, sorry, my best, their second,

580
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: their second best defensive player. They didn't have their left

581
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: tackle and Greg Little. They you know, they're they're missing

582
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 1: a lot of that team and they're winning games. If

583
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: this is a tired conversation in any sport, but like, well,

584
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: what is a movie? What does m VP mean most

585
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: valuable player? Well, in that case, well, in that case

586
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, this team is oh and five without mc affrey.

587
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: I don't need to circle back to him. But I

588
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: just I'm just so blown away by how incredibly has

589
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: been because Kyle Allen is excited as we got after

590
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 1: his first start, is very much regrets at this point,

591
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: McCaffrey is absolutely carrying this team while Newton recuperates. And

592
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 1: if if the Panthers do take this into January and

593
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: they have a nice January run, we can't forget what

594
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 1: McCaffrey did to save their season at this point, because

595
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: I think there's nothing less than that. Not to sell

596
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: their defense short, which has come out as well. But

597
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 1: I really think McCaffrey has been an absolute godsend revelation.

598
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: I guess you'd worry a little bit about his workload

599
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 1: because you had to seven touches last week and they lent.

600
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 1: They lean on him again this week about as hard

601
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: as you can and he and he was banged up

602
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 1: at the end of the game. And just to point

603
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 1: out that Minshew had two bad fumbles in this one

604
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: return for a touchdown. He hasn't been perfect but from

605
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: but throwing the ball once it gets out of his

606
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: hands nine touchdowns in one pick this season. Also, he

607
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: also threw one right to Bradberry on the last drive

608
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: that should have been caught. But that okay, But I

609
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: mean it's just that it's not perfect. All these other

610
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: rookies are. I mean that, you know, making mistakes. Panthers

611
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: use your backups. You know, McCaffrey, he had what cramps

612
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 1: in this game at the end, and so you brought

613
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: in bonifin and he runs for fifty nine yards on

614
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: one play and he gets five for eight in the

615
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 1: touch It's like backup running backs can succeed behind a

616
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 1: really good run blocking offensive line, which I think the

617
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: Panthers are on their best days. Is Jalen Rams are

618
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: gonna play next week. I don't care anymore and not

619
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: you know what I think that locker room, well that

620
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: you know what their front office should care and all that,

621
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: but the players have something else to focus on at

622
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: this point. That sounds cliche, but it's like, forget Jalen Rams.

623
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 1: You get on the field or not totally. I don't

624
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: know how bang uppy is, but let's move on. Three.

625
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: By shooting the near side, Bridgewater takes a gun, snap

626
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: cock Mike Thomas at the five Bridge wanna tackle parts

627
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 1: into the end zone. Mike Thomas touch down. I told

628
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: you that was too little man little, he can't go.

629
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,479
Speaker 1: He can't Taplin and that was another that the safety

630
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: didn't have a shot at him at firstment he was

631
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: not big enough. Mike Thomas playing like your grown man

632
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: today ten catch, two touchdowns and SATs lead at thirty

633
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: one seventeen. Allow some huge games today. In the NFL

634
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: Zax streep and deuce McAllister with a nice call there

635
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 1: Saints Radio Network. Teddy Bridgewater passed for yards and four touchdowns,

636
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: including that game ice in connection with Michael Thomas. In

637
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers thirty

638
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: one to twenty four. Bridgewater is now three and oh

639
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: as the Saints starter and greg this is the first

640
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: game you could say he was the main driver behind

641
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: the victory. He was. Although it's it's tough to pick

642
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: which Saints group played best in this game because they dominated.

643
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 1: This was as their best game of the season, by

644
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: far their most complete game of this season. The score

645
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: couldn't be more misleading. It was one way traffic. You know,

646
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: Teddy's going deep and Jamis Winston can't go deep. He shook.

647
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: We know box scores and stats lie sometimes. This was

648
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: a one score game at the end, it was four

649
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 1: D fifty seven to a hundred and seventy four yards

650
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: before garbage time touchdown drive by the Bucks. Jamis Winston

651
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 1: numbers in the box score looked pretty good. It was

652
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: one of his worst games. He could have had five interceptions.

653
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: He was hesitant, He was shook early because his past

654
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: protection that he had last week in Los Angeles was

655
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: nowhere to be found in The Saints defensive line just

656
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: ran up and down on them. Lattimore held Mike Evans

657
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 1: to a shutout. It was it was just a complete shutout.

658
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: No catches on three targets. He was across from him.

659
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,959
Speaker 1: I'm almost every snap of the entire game. And if

660
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: you're Saints fan, you gotta do feeling so good because

661
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: the breeze injuries weirdly helped them, just because now that

662
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 1: they're piling up wins, it's the rest of the team

663
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 1: has come together and shown what they can do, and

664
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: Teddy's gotten better every week. Yep, you Greg you mentioned

665
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 1: at the time of Drew brees Is injury that this

666
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: is the kind of challenge that will reinvigorate Sean Payton,

667
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 1: and it was a narrative and it's proven to be

668
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: a savvy take that he has been reinvigorated by this

669
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: and you I think you'd have to put him first.

670
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 1: And I mean it's early, but coach of the year material.

671
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: I think the Rams um You know, the Rams beat

672
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 1: the Saints this year. It's the only team that beat

673
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: the Rams. But I think the Saints are the clear

674
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: cut team of the NFC right now. I don't think

675
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 1: there's anybody close to him. And when Drew Brees gets back,

676
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 1: assuming the other pieces come together, this team looks as

677
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: locked in as any team you'll find at this time

678
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: of year. Now you have to carry that on through

679
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 1: deep into the season, but you don't get the vibe

680
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 1: is Seawan Payton team is gonna let down here? Right?

681
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: I think this is a train that's gonna keep rolling.

682
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 1: On the flip side, I mean, Bruce arians came out

683
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 1: of this who calling certain players on the roster soft

684
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: and he was secondary secondary, And yeah, this was the

685
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 1: game that made a believer in me out of Teddy Bridgewater.

686
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: In this offense, for the distance that he needs to go,

687
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: it's not obviously the best defense you face. But Michael

688
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 1: Thomas became a thing again where he was an absolute

689
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: deep threat. I just I wondered when the offense might

690
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: catch up to him with the way they were operating before.

691
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: So Alvin Kamar is a total star, and he can

692
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: takes fifteen screen passes a game and Mike mincemeat out

693
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: of the right defense. But it's much better to have

694
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: a vertical danger threat right. The key play of the

695
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: game for Teddy to me was a third intent. When

696
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 1: it was I believe twenty four to seventeen the Buccaneers

697
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: had scored to make it a one score game. He

698
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: had a third intent. He had pressure in his face

699
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 1: and he threw a dime on a deep out that

700
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: is not an easy pass to complete over the top

701
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: of a zone defense. And he made I would say,

702
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 1: four throws like that in the game. It's not like

703
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 1: he needed to make a ton of dazzling throws, but

704
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,760
Speaker 1: he made four really impressive throws. He made one mistake

705
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,720
Speaker 1: on an interception that was thrown a little behind Kamara,

706
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: and Sean Payton called an amazing game. Taysom Hill was

707
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 1: more involved in this game. Uh, and it worked when

708
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill was in the game. You know what you

709
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: get next week? Up tick Teddy, who were all into

710
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 1: now against Gardner Minshew. So if I'm reading the room right,

711
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: you guys think the Saints are now like a thirty

712
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: point a week offense. No, I wouldn't. I think, just

713
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,359
Speaker 1: get to this was one game. I don't even think

714
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: that you can expect that out of Drew Now. This

715
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: was one game where they hit everything well. I still

716
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 1: worry about the depth that it's Thomas Kamara and what else.

717
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: Jared Cook had made a couple of mistakes but also

718
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: made a couple of plays today for the first time.

719
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: They're but They're offensive line is really good and their

720
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: defensive line, which I really want to stress Davenport Jordan's

721
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,919
Speaker 1: now that Rankins is back, Malcolm Brown is playing well

722
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 1: for them. I'm forgetting someone here, Trey Hendrickson. When he's

723
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: out there, they're as good as any defensive line in

724
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: the league right now. They shut down the run and

725
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 1: they get after it. And if if you're that good

726
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 1: upfront with Sean Payton and whoever, they're gonna be gold.

727
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: And Alvin Kamara hasn't even really gotten rolling yet. I

728
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 1: feel like this this is an offense that's gonna get funny.

729
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 1: We say that, and you're right, but he's like on

730
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,319
Speaker 1: pace for eighteen hundred yards from scrimmage. Yeah, I guess

731
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 1: he hasn't had any like extreme McCaffrey type game the

732
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,799
Speaker 1: Seattle Yeattle. Yeah, but that you're right, I'm with you.

733
00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 1: Like they held him down and he still had a

734
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: hundred six yards all right, Let's head to the swamps

735
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 1: of Jersey. Cook two yards from scrimmage. Cousins back to path,

736
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 1: fires to the end zone and it's yes, touchdown Ada

737
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 1: a nine yard touchdown his second today, the second from

738
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: the arm of Kirk Cousins and Minnesota Leeds twenty four ten.

739
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: That is Paul Allen of Vikings Radio Network, not Paul Allen,

740
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: the murder victim in American Psycho. That would be wild.

741
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 1: That would be hard to achieve. Kirk Cousins threw two

742
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 1: touchdowns to Adam Feeling. That was Jared Leto's character in

743
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,320
Speaker 1: the film Just Well rewatch on that Please tell further

744
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,320
Speaker 1: into it. Kirk Cousins threw two touchdowns to Adam DeLand

745
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,879
Speaker 1: Delvin Cook. David Cook had more than two hundred yards

746
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,280
Speaker 1: of total offense and the Vikings humbled Giants rookie Daniel

747
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:55,920
Speaker 1: Jones victory h Yeah, Jones is probably pretty humble guy actually,

748
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: so I don't know if he was humbled, but it

749
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 1: was a reminder or maybe a first lesson that um

750
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 1: being a quarterback at the highest level, it's gonna be

751
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 1: bad days. Everybody has them. This was jones first bad game.

752
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins um apologize to Adam Feeling on a podcast

753
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 1: this week that was still pretty weird. We didn't really

754
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 1: delve into that as much as we probably should have.

755
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:24,720
Speaker 1: Like podcast, it's like kicking it. That's also weird person.

756
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,400
Speaker 1: But anyway, like and that's you know, that's the problem.

757
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 1: I know, lodged onto your radar, but it's just how

758
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: he operates. But action beats contrition, and he targeted his

759
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:40,240
Speaker 1: number one boy, my number one boy, eight times. Theland

760
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: responded with seven catches for Buck thirty two t ds

761
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 1: and tens. The final um that featured a Vikings Dalvid

762
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 1: Cook fumble at the one yard line after he had

763
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 1: broken a long run when they were going in. It

764
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 1: featured a Vikings first and goal from the one where

765
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,280
Speaker 1: they got held from to three points, and it also

766
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: the Vikings kneeling on the ball inside the Giants five

767
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: as the game ended. So this wasn't really even close

768
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 1: this game. The Vikings a team who caught a ton

769
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: of heat uh leading up to this game, and they're

770
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 1: still probably issues with this team. But what was that?

771
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 1: Who's that you hit the button? Hit the wrong button?

772
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 1: Apologies a human sound of cough. I mean it's it's good.

773
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 1: After six years of doing this, we're just looking for

774
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 1: new experiences. I have like a ninety nine point nine

775
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,879
Speaker 1: percent successfully with the cough button. We got the other

776
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,439
Speaker 1: part of it today without looking. So you do cough

777
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 1: a lot, just a lot of coffee. But a long

778
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:44,760
Speaker 1: time ago, are you still vaping? The vaping is very dangerous,

779
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 1: chemical marks, not a vapor. People are apparently dying from

780
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: reading articles that are quite suspicious chemical burns bro um. Anyway,

781
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: so it got the there are still issues, you imagine

782
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,399
Speaker 1: in Minnesota in that locker room. Stefon Diggs who ended

783
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 1: up getting a big beefy fine this week for missing

784
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: practices and meetings. And he wasn't exactly a huge part

785
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: of this offense for four targets, three catches for forty four,

786
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 1: but you're getting feeling involved. Dalvin Cook a little bit

787
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: of a slappy ball ball game from me. He put

788
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: the ball on the ground twice, lost the fumble as

789
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: I said, but also again showed that he is just

790
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: basically when he gets in space, There's very few guys

791
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 1: who are as terrifying as him. And the Giants UH

792
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 1: defense playing very thin to the linebacker position and you

793
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: see that with great, wide open swaths of space. So

794
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 1: check this game out. They had almost five yards the

795
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: total offense Minnesota and they took the foot off the

796
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 1: pedal in the second half. UM so a very one

797
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,920
Speaker 1: sided win. And my last point before I throw to

798
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 1: you guys is UH. And we talked about this west

799
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 1: on Sky Sports. Kirk Cousins and play action have been

800
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 1: that is a bread and butter. It should be for

801
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: this offense, but it hadn't been all season. But in

802
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: this game he went nuts with it, and you saw

803
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 1: how dangerous they can be when they sell the Dalblin

804
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,839
Speaker 1: Cook aspect of the offense and then use their big

805
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 1: receivers UH and play action yardage almost matched all their

806
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 1: total up into Sunday with one game today. Well, I

807
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 1: think you know Kirk kept the Wolves at bay for

808
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 1: another week. Now he returns home to face the Eagles,

809
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 1: coming off a pair of impressive games and we have

810
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 1: said you trust in Kirk and the Vikings offense when

811
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 1: they're clearly the better team playing at home. I don't

812
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 1: know if they're clearly better than the one pm game

813
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:32,279
Speaker 1: that no one's paying attention against the depleted defense, But

814
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 1: you know, you can only play the team in front

815
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 1: of you. And he came out after this week and

816
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 1: he had more yards in the first half by far

817
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: than the Giants had the entire game. Dalvin Cook also

818
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,359
Speaker 1: had more yards in this game than the Giants had

819
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,280
Speaker 1: the entire game. They had two d and eleven yards,

820
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,839
Speaker 1: so it was a complete game from their entire team,

821
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 1: which is a veteran a veteran thing to do. There

822
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 1: too two and two teams entering this game, and yet

823
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 1: you know, as Dan said, they're they're really not close.

824
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 1: I think they're the team that's gonna make a fool

825
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 1: out of us week after week because we're gonna overreact.

826
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 1: In theory. They got players, though, so I'm not sure

827
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: about that because they have well okay, but I I

828
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 1: see them as an eight and eight team and they're

829
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 1: gonna do what they did last week, and then next

830
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 1: week they're gonna go have a breakdown when we're all

831
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 1: freaking out again. I'm never going to pick them to

832
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,879
Speaker 1: lose at home. Well there. I still believe in them,

833
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,399
Speaker 1: I really do. And what extent though, what to what limit?

834
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 1: And where do they think they could potentially win the division?

835
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 1: I think they have a chance to go to the

836
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,400
Speaker 1: super Bowl? Why not If they don't, I don't buy this.

837
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,800
Speaker 1: The first five games of your season winds up telling

838
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 1: you what they're gonna be. And what I see is

839
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: a lot of talent on this team and a lot

840
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 1: of people that have been together and they're not They

841
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 1: haven't hurt themselves with bad losses, so I think they're

842
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,399
Speaker 1: a team that can change. It's a test very much

843
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 1: on my radar the issues internally, because if that is

844
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: festering in late September early October, if there is more drama,

845
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 1: if there's more struggles in the field, that could be

846
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,439
Speaker 1: something where the locker room blows apart. But I think

847
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 1: from a talent standpoint, I still think this is a

848
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 1: talented offense. I still think the defense is talented. We

849
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,439
Speaker 1: saw today, uh where Jones was just kind of never

850
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: comfortable in this game. They sacked him four times, hit

851
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 1: him a bunch more. He averaged less than five yards

852
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: per attempted the Danny dimes in the Gabbard zone. Uh so,

853
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 1: a nice game for the Vikings Cousins. Nice bounce back game.

854
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 1: But yes, let's see where they are next week, because

855
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 1: people will be watching up to the talent every week.

856
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it's no one's questioning that they're talented players.

857
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,319
Speaker 1: They're not terrible shape. I'm not I'm not saying I'm

858
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 1: not shooting them off Earth's surface into deep space. It's

859
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 1: just I'm allowed to look at a couple of these

860
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 1: teams with a suspicious eye versus shoving all of them

861
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: into the NFC title game. They're not all gonna make it,

862
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 1: of course. It's more just like whether we're ruling them

863
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 1: out now, and I just don't see that that Wait,

864
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: the NFC North is tricky. Though all four teams are

865
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 1: above five after five weeks. You just don't see that

866
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 1: almost ever. And I don't think any of them are

867
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 1: flukey in terms of how they got to their records,

868
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,480
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be very tricky to get out of.

869
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 1: That's beginning yang for the a F North. I operated

870
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 1: down on the ground. Let's move on Watson then, with

871
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:15,879
Speaker 1: two receivers, to left, Deshan gets the snap looking left,

872
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:20,280
Speaker 1: Watson throwing Tamfield and he's got Fuller across the fifty

873
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:25,799
Speaker 1: tap five rock and roll flucks down Will Fuller and

874
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 1: that seal stuff deal awesome. Love it, Mark vander me

875
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,359
Speaker 1: or one of my favorite calls from you that I've

876
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 1: ever heard. Sleep well, my friend. Deshaun Watson through for

877
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,800
Speaker 1: a career high four six yards and tied his personal

878
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: best five touchdown passes, including three to that man Will Fuller.

879
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: Texans drop a fifty burger on the garbage falcon, a

880
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:56,799
Speaker 1: stink fifty three to thirty two final Fuller finished with

881
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 1: two hundred and seventeen. I'm telling you this is a

882
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,800
Speaker 1: Fantasy Goldline Week five. Some of these monster performances seventeen

883
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 1: yards for will Filler Fuller, who, by the way is

884
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 1: their number two receivers. So that's pretty cool. Greg. When

885
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,319
Speaker 1: the Texans are right there are positively scary. This is

886
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,759
Speaker 1: such a fun game and performance for you guys to

887
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,399
Speaker 1: watch on game pass. I think something to point out

888
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 1: with that radio call, which was really well done. It

889
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 1: was still a game. Then it's third and five. It's

890
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 1: a one possession game, under two minutes to go and

891
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 1: I think most teams would either call a run there.

892
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 1: Because the Falcons had no time outs, you could have

893
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: burned the clock down about one twenty or you could

894
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 1: have called a very safe pass. But what do they do?

895
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: They make up a play as they go along. Fuller

896
00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 1: adjusted that route. He saw what the defense was doing,

897
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:49,879
Speaker 1: Watson saw him, makes a beautiful throw. Watson is as

898
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:51,880
Speaker 1: streaky as any quarterback in the league. I mean, they

899
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: scored twenty four points combined in their first two home games.

900
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,839
Speaker 1: They put fifty three. He's streaky sometimes within games. This

901
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 1: game was all just one good streak. Poor at Ryan's

902
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 1: trying to come back in this game. And here are

903
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 1: the Texans last nine possessions and they only had ten

904
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 1: touchdown touchdown, field goal, end of half. Okay, the Falcons

905
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,760
Speaker 1: are still ahead at that point, despite you know, Texans

906
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:16,200
Speaker 1: doing well. Okay, we're fighting back alright, touchdown field goal. Okay,

907
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 1: the Falcons. They're still in this game. It's one possession

908
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 1: even though they haven't stopped touchdown, touchdown, touchdown. Matt Ryan,

909
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: just like, give me a chance to come back in

910
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,359
Speaker 1: this game. There's no chance. This defense is wretched. And

911
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,800
Speaker 1: after the game, Arthur blank, you know, gave his coaching

912
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 1: staff the old vote of confidence. But the bloggers who

913
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 1: are about Falcons fans and watching the coaches film and

914
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 1: breaking this down every week are pointing out how poorly

915
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:44,400
Speaker 1: coached this defense is. It's san Quinn, which who was

916
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: also the defensive coordinator of one of the great defenses

917
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 1: of the century in Seattle, so things can change. And

918
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 1: dan Quinn, who I think lived up to the promise

919
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: early on. And now you get into a weird space

920
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:59,719
Speaker 1: with these young coaching guys who the message at this

921
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,440
Speaker 1: point is fraid and it's lost because what are you

922
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 1: telling anyone that you stand for as the Falcons head

923
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:09,760
Speaker 1: coach when everything was based around urgent, relentless defense. Zero

924
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 1: sacks on Watson, That's what flips the switch on Watson

925
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 1: when he's not getting taken down five, six, seven times

926
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 1: in a game and not to the ground twelve or

927
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 1: thirteen times. But they almost had a Gholston in this game.

928
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 1: The Atlanta Falcons had one quarterback hit, no sacks. Deshaun

929
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,799
Speaker 1: Watson has been protected pristinely three straight weeks, and I

930
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 1: know he took a lot of sacks last week. He

931
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 1: he had got great pass protection in that game a

932
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,439
Speaker 1: week ago. That was not a great performance for him

933
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: and the play calling and everyone else. And this team

934
00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:42,280
Speaker 1: looks awfully dangerous when he's protected and Will Fuller's healthy

935
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,839
Speaker 1: and Kiki qt had a really good game when they're

936
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,839
Speaker 1: they're just adding weapons to this group. They're a weird team.

937
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,240
Speaker 1: Can I throw weird it? So like with the Vikings,

938
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 1: Like the Texans have their issues all over the place,

939
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 1: and they're a weird team. But to me, I look

940
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,120
Speaker 1: at their ceiling and I'll say, I'm not gonna I'm

941
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 1: not gonna count you out of anything at all on

942
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 1: any level from a psychic level. I look at the

943
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: Vikings to just say, I don't feel that way. I

944
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: don't know what the difference is. Maybe it's totally illogical.

945
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:09,719
Speaker 1: Here's that is that good old line. And I feel

946
00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 1: like Houston they have to contend with two incredible superpowers

947
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,400
Speaker 1: in their own conference. Though, Like when you want to

948
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,400
Speaker 1: talk about ceilings on a team out in their division,

949
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 1: and so talking about if you were trying to play

950
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:22,319
Speaker 1: in February here right there, trying to get a home

951
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 1: game in the playoffs and start there, and then you

952
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 1: can see what happens and j j Watt had one of,

953
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 1: if not his best games since he's returned from his

954
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:33,839
Speaker 1: injury today too, So there's just a lot of night

955
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:36,920
Speaker 1: nice signs for this team. All right, let's move on,

956
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:42,800
Speaker 1: get excited. WESTC five man pressure protection is good? Flacco froze.

957
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: Why don't people receive the flat coast? There? He pull's wife.

958
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:49,800
Speaker 1: So I'm down the sideline. Twenty fights to the lines,

959
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:55,320
Speaker 1: touchdown Denver. It is a touchdown injection run of seventy

960
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:59,800
Speaker 1: yards and Denver is in front. Nothing over the Chargers.

961
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 1: Dave Logan with the called Broncos Radio Network. Yes, West,

962
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: the Broncos are off the schny at Joe Flacco connected

963
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 1: on a long one to Courtland Sutton Philip Lindsay piled

964
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,680
Speaker 1: up a hundred forty seven yards of total offense. I

965
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 1: think fas y'all. That defense shut out the Chargers in

966
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:21,200
Speaker 1: the first half, held on for a win at the

967
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 1: dignity and health for all park um Wes. They got

968
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 1: it done well. They controlled this game from the outset,

969
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 1: and there were a few scary moments in the second

970
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 1: half when the offense went in the tank for about

971
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:37,919
Speaker 1: straight minutes. Um. I don't think they had a first

972
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:39,839
Speaker 1: down in the third quarter as they wanted. They did

973
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 1: not have a first down in the third quarter. Um,

974
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:45,399
Speaker 1: but the Broncos defense had their best game of the year.

975
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 1: And you're not gonna see a huge box score for

976
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: von Miller and Malik Read, but they both played well.

977
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 1: Malik Read is the undrafted rookie filling in for Bradley Chubb.

978
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:58,920
Speaker 1: He played well. Kareem Jackson had three or four huge plays,

979
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 1: including knocking the ball out of Austin Ekeler's hands as

980
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,840
Speaker 1: he was diving for the pylon on the last play

981
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 1: of the first half. It was a really good performance

982
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:10,839
Speaker 1: by the Broncos d and frankly their running game, which

983
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 1: has been good all year and they have they have

984
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 1: controlled the clock, this offense has They just have had

985
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:19,839
Speaker 1: so many untimely penalties from their offensive line, killing their

986
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: running game, killing their momentum. And in this today they

987
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:28,319
Speaker 1: got through that. Philip Lindsay was spectacular and was uh

988
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 1: he had he had a cut and some suddenness in

989
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,360
Speaker 1: the four minute offense that was, you know, got me

990
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 1: out of my seat. It was so impressive. What I

991
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:37,560
Speaker 1: mean the play that you mentioned West at the end

992
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,200
Speaker 1: of the first half being able to keep Eckler out

993
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 1: of the end zone there and preserve with seventeen point lead,

994
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 1: and then Rivers goes down the field and throws that interception.

995
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 1: That's fourteen points um nine times out of ten with

996
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 1: the Chargers in their offense. But give Denver credit for

997
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 1: making the stands. I didn't think Rivers looked comfortable all game.

998
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:58,399
Speaker 1: He should have had a couple more passes picked off.

999
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 1: He did not play well, and they had no running game.

1000
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon came back and we assumed that he and

1001
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 1: Ekeler would maybe go back to being one of the

1002
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,480
Speaker 1: best tandems in the league. They had nineteam first downs

1003
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:13,799
Speaker 1: zero zero came via the run for seven yards for

1004
00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 1: they opened up and that first half with the with

1005
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,399
Speaker 1: the fumble at the end, punt, interception, miss field goal

1006
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,640
Speaker 1: which was a killer, then that fumble at the end,

1007
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,600
Speaker 1: come out of it with three straight punts and interception.

1008
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 1: They can't This is the Chargers team that loses you

1009
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 1: because they cannot get out of their own way. They

1010
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 1: haven't looked right all year. I know, they're just two

1011
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,360
Speaker 1: and three and they've had some moments. I think Rivers

1012
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,359
Speaker 1: has played really well until this until this week. They

1013
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,360
Speaker 1: played well, but he's had some ill time turnovers, which

1014
00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:44,600
Speaker 1: Joe Flaccos hadn't had it in this game too, he

1015
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,400
Speaker 1: had to. One was on a on a tip pass.

1016
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:51,360
Speaker 1: But there's something it's the defense mostly, but there's something

1017
00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:53,720
Speaker 1: like not jelling with this team. Maybe that's what happens

1018
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:55,960
Speaker 1: when you lose five to six starters to injury and

1019
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,160
Speaker 1: you don't have a home field because once again this

1020
00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: was a Broncos home game, and Rivers has to overcome

1021
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,760
Speaker 1: that offensive line every week. He does a good job

1022
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 1: of it. But they have scored thirteen points or fewer

1023
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:07,719
Speaker 1: and three of the last four games. And every every

1024
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:09,759
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen catch and he didn't have many today for

1025
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: free had a big drop to I. I always just

1026
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:16,040
Speaker 1: think of Wow, it's crazy the numbers Alan puts up

1027
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:19,800
Speaker 1: when so many of those catches and throws are tough throws,

1028
00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 1: Like it's not like they're getting Keenan Allen open. It's

1029
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:25,400
Speaker 1: just a hard way to run an offense. By the

1030
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:29,200
Speaker 1: way West, big road win here, oh and four, history

1031
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,840
Speaker 1: tells us you're done now one and for it. And

1032
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:33,879
Speaker 1: now they get back to back games in Denver, where

1033
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:35,680
Speaker 1: I know they've lost two games in a heart bake

1034
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 1: breaking fashion. But they're tough, they're well. West is on

1035
00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:41,080
Speaker 1: the roller coaster, so we're on it with him, home

1036
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:46,960
Speaker 1: against not on it, Titoons next week winn AA bowball game,

1037
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:48,960
Speaker 1: of course, and then home against the Chiefs on a

1038
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,640
Speaker 1: short week on Thursday night football. I think that Titans

1039
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,760
Speaker 1: game might be the only game all year the Broncos

1040
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,239
Speaker 1: play a team with a worse offensive line than they have. Troublesome,

1041
00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:02,319
Speaker 1: Let's move on. I tried thirty one yard attempt by

1042
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 1: Zane Gonzalez to win the game, tied at twenty three

1043
00:52:06,360 --> 00:52:10,799
Speaker 1: with two seconds to go. The whole the snap's good,

1044
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: the balls down, the kick is up, the kick here's good.

1045
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 1: Break out, the boat ties. This one's for Mr b.

1046
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:24,520
Speaker 1: Cardinals win it twenty three, the first win of the

1047
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury era. Wow. Like that call? Of course, Bill

1048
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:33,839
Speaker 1: built Bidwell, the team's original owner who passed away last week. Yes,

1049
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,760
Speaker 1: so the Cardinals win one for Bidwell. Rookie Kyler Murray

1050
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 1: ran for a touchdown and lead the Cardinals on a

1051
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:43,759
Speaker 1: drive that ended with Zane gonzalez thirty one yard field

1052
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,759
Speaker 1: goal in the final play. Cardinals, Yes, get that first

1053
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: win under Cliff Kingsbury twenty three over the Bengals, who

1054
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:54,839
Speaker 1: stink in their own building. Man, Greg look like, look

1055
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,040
Speaker 1: like for a moment. The Bengals have find a way

1056
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 1: to spend their misery for at least one week. But

1057
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,359
Speaker 1: Murray's yeah, I just want to say thanks for all,

1058
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:04,759
Speaker 1: you know, as a representative for all the Cardinals fans

1059
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 1: out there, I just assumed covering this game, this would

1060
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,879
Speaker 1: be the last game we got to. So it's nice.

1061
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 1: This is, you know, kind of in the middle. Okay, yeah,

1062
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 1: because Bills Tennessee higher and that was just an oversight,

1063
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 1: so but enjoy it. But you know what it was.

1064
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,439
Speaker 1: It was a football game where if you thought, oh,

1065
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 1: these are winless teams and it's probably not gonna be

1066
00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: very interesting, you know what, you were right. For fifty

1067
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:30,160
Speaker 1: six minutes, the Cardinals should have been up by thirty

1068
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,839
Speaker 1: points in this game. They were tripling the Bengals total

1069
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,320
Speaker 1: yard and it was twenty three to nine, and suddenly

1070
00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 1: the Bengals go wild, score two touchdowns uh in the

1071
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:41,440
Speaker 1: last five minutes to make it a tie game. And

1072
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 1: then Kyler Murray rips off a nice run that reminded

1073
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,600
Speaker 1: me a little bit of Michael vick uh in his

1074
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:51,239
Speaker 1: famous run against the Vikings. Yeah, really small version, and

1075
00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: we talked about it going into this game. If there's

1076
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: one thing to like about the Cliff Kingsbury experience, it's

1077
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 1: the running game. And they ran for two hundred and

1078
00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:03,040
Speaker 1: sixty six yards. Murray ran for three uh, David Johnson

1079
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,680
Speaker 1: had a total of one sixty six from scrimmage and

1080
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 1: even Chase Edmonds had a big run that put the

1081
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:11,160
Speaker 1: game away. David Johnson putting up big numbers week after

1082
00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:12,719
Speaker 1: week like the old days, I mean, a lot of

1083
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 1: it's been through the air, so this this is actually encouraging.

1084
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 1: I don't think they have had anything close to this

1085
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 1: on the ground. The Cardinals so far, we're good doing

1086
00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:22,400
Speaker 1: pretty good like yards per carrying if you watch like

1087
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: they're opening up some holes where It's been a pretty

1088
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 1: good running game throughout the year. The problem is that

1089
00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:30,040
Speaker 1: they're trailing so much you don't get to use it.

1090
00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:31,960
Speaker 1: So this was a nice game for them where they

1091
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,720
Speaker 1: could get a lead against the Bengals team who looked

1092
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 1: so overmatched in the first half. I just was thinking

1093
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:39,759
Speaker 1: this is a low moment for the Andy Dalton They

1094
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:41,880
Speaker 1: were not for the Bengals franchise. We just had some

1095
00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:45,720
Speaker 1: low moment moments, but not looking competitive against the Cardinals

1096
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 1: is pretty long. It's a way to win in this game.

1097
00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 1: Marvin Lewis, what does he? Yeah, Well, is somewhere You're right,

1098
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,840
Speaker 1: Marvin Lewis is somewhere saying just like, hey, remember this,

1099
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:00,800
Speaker 1: this is what it was like before I was there too.

1100
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:04,200
Speaker 1: Marvin Lewis raised the Titanic Chris Wesling, Right, but this

1101
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 1: is a Bengals team that was similar to last year's

1102
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 1: that really had so many backbreaking injuries that you how

1103
00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:12,600
Speaker 1: do you even evaluate this Bengals team? That's fair Tyler

1104
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:16,280
Speaker 1: boyd and is the only receiver left. And and the Buzzards.

1105
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:20,319
Speaker 1: The Buzzards are circling our GM. App yes, there are

1106
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,120
Speaker 1: a lot of gms, according to Jason lack On for

1107
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 1: of CBS Sports, just circling the Bengals, trying to get

1108
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 1: a j Green, checking in on Geno Atkins, checking in

1109
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 1: on Carlos Dunlap. This is a team going nowhere this year.

1110
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:36,959
Speaker 1: You think they'd say no to moving these guys fun.

1111
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:39,879
Speaker 1: Do you know how that that operation is a mom

1112
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:42,680
Speaker 1: and pop? They are They don't think of things the

1113
00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:46,080
Speaker 1: same way other teams do. And I would be surprised

1114
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 1: if they sold off lifelong Bengals like A J. Green,

1115
00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:53,239
Speaker 1: Geno Atkins and Carlos Dunlap. Green is unique. I don't

1116
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:55,960
Speaker 1: think they would with Atkins and you know, probably not

1117
00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,239
Speaker 1: done Lap. But Green's unique because he's in the last

1118
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:01,120
Speaker 1: year of his contract. He hasn't healthy at all, and

1119
00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 1: I think you might get a good offer for him,

1120
00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:04,200
Speaker 1: but I don't think you can get a first form

1121
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: at this stage with those in If your Minnesota just

1122
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 1: like ship out Stefon Diggs and then you get Stefen

1123
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:12,240
Speaker 1: Dick's contract, I would take that if I'm the Bengals

1124
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,440
Speaker 1: and I feel like Minnesota, you know, things like that,

1125
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:16,359
Speaker 1: things cant of the Vikings have solved any of their

1126
00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 1: problems with that movie. Green is a rare talent. Why

1127
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 1: not you get you get a J. Green? Who Green? Now? Yeah,

1128
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:24,839
Speaker 1: well it's not even on the field right now. Green

1129
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,120
Speaker 1: is the rare talent though, where you might roll the

1130
00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:30,480
Speaker 1: dice in that situation one you know, on the short list,

1131
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:32,520
Speaker 1: I mean, did you want to release back on the

1132
00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:36,040
Speaker 1: field Diggs when they asked him today if he was

1133
00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 1: happy to be in Minnesota. He goes, yeah, I'm happy

1134
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:41,440
Speaker 1: to be here, and then he did did he did

1135
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: a one, He did a wink and then a click sound.

1136
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, I'm happy to be here, and

1137
00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 1: then with a little wink and a click. That's what

1138
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 1: you want to hear. A limited amount of problem interest

1139
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:54,960
Speaker 1: in the way these guys are handling their business. You're

1140
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 1: under contract, sometimes you do. I mean you're getting paid

1141
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:00,719
Speaker 1: a lot of money. Let to move on. Let's here

1142
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:04,520
Speaker 1: it for Cliff Kingsbury's first win. Offset I formation set

1143
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:06,880
Speaker 1: up right side the snap, Josh's gonna keep it himself

1144
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:11,719
Speaker 1: running around the left side. Statement, bounce first down Buffalo

1145
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,920
Speaker 1: at the nineteen yard line, and the celebration is on

1146
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 1: for the Bills offensive players on the field. One thirty six,

1147
00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 1: one thirty five, and the Buffalo Bills are gonna get

1148
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 1: out of Tennessee with a hard funk victory. John Murphy Murph,

1149
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:28,160
Speaker 1: I would call mirth if we were like having bruise.

1150
00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: I think that's what he goes by. Hey Murph, you'd

1151
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:38,720
Speaker 1: fit right in. Nice guy. Mur about some wings Vegan

1152
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,919
Speaker 1: wings for my friend and the arc Is that a thing?

1153
00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:44,880
Speaker 1: How do you make a wing sound like where do

1154
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 1: the bones standing? Over and over, let's just point it.

1155
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,160
Speaker 1: Come to work, deal with Dan for nine hours, go

1156
00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:53,680
Speaker 1: back home, wake up to the same thing again. Travel

1157
00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:55,880
Speaker 1: to a foreign country with him, have to deal with

1158
00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 1: the same thing on a high octane pitch for eight

1159
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 1: days in a foreign country. Come back to the stage.

1160
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,680
Speaker 1: It's reshuffled the deck, same thing, over and over. You

1161
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:04,440
Speaker 1: guys think this is a joke. This is how he

1162
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:08,520
Speaker 1: really feels. Josh third down scramble on the final two

1163
00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:11,360
Speaker 1: minutes locked up another win for the Bills, who bounced

1164
00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:13,640
Speaker 1: back from last week's near miss against the Patriots with

1165
00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:17,600
Speaker 1: a fourteen to seven win over the Titoons in Nashville, West.

1166
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 1: Another big day for the Bill's stud defense and a

1167
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:25,040
Speaker 1: different kind of Kai's Kai to deal with. Huh Kiro

1168
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:30,280
Speaker 1: Santos missed four field goals, two in the fifty yard range,

1169
00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 1: two in the thirty something yard range, and that was

1170
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 1: one big problem. The other big problem is this offensive line.

1171
00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 1: We've been saying for a while that that Marcus Mariota

1172
00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:44,480
Speaker 1: turns pressure into sex as frequently as any quarterback. I

1173
00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,240
Speaker 1: think it's time to just say this isn't even on

1174
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:49,880
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota. This offensive line is brutal. Their guards are terrible.

1175
00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:52,880
Speaker 1: Roger Stafford is looking like an early free agent bust.

1176
00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,960
Speaker 1: The other guard spot. They pushed Nate Davis, a rookie

1177
00:58:56,000 --> 00:59:00,640
Speaker 1: third rounder, into the starting lineup. He struggled um Jordan Phillips,

1178
00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:02,720
Speaker 1: the Bills defensive tackle had six and a half sacks

1179
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:05,160
Speaker 1: in his career coming into this game, had three in

1180
00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:08,200
Speaker 1: the first half, all on third down. I believe well,

1181
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,360
Speaker 1: at least Mariotta took three third down Saxon row, which

1182
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 1: is his move. He's gonna use it. But this Titan,

1183
00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:16,480
Speaker 1: I think this offensive line is an achilles heel that's

1184
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:18,920
Speaker 1: gonna keep them from being good all year, even with

1185
00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 1: getting Taylor Luan back, because that was the should have

1186
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,400
Speaker 1: this week. You should have seen the Bills players talking

1187
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:27,200
Speaker 1: trash at Taylor Lawan after the game, saying he's basically

1188
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:29,200
Speaker 1: just a mouth and that's it. We know what his

1189
00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 1: weakness is. He can't do with pressure to the inside.

1190
00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:34,360
Speaker 1: They were just like we were glad he came back

1191
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 1: so he can get some of this action. Mouth did

1192
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 1: pass alide de dector test I'll throw that out there,

1193
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,960
Speaker 1: but that didn't Never want I want to see how

1194
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 1: we verified those results of Taylor Luwan. Hey, we always

1195
00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:47,080
Speaker 1: talk about you know, we don't know who these teams are. Hey,

1196
00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 1: it's week five, you know they're one week they're up,

1197
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:50,959
Speaker 1: one week they're down. The Buffalo Bills are the same

1198
00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:54,640
Speaker 1: team every week, and I'm I'm falling for them, just

1199
00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 1: this weird, ugly amalgamation of I don't know, good coaching

1200
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:02,520
Speaker 1: and bad offense. One of one of the things, one

1201
01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:04,560
Speaker 1: of the things that they do have every week is

1202
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,840
Speaker 1: they don't have a great offense overall. But give Brian

1203
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 1: Dable Chris, that's what I mean. He has called He

1204
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:13,360
Speaker 1: has done package plays at a really high level, where

1205
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:15,960
Speaker 1: guys like Isaiah Mackenzie are taking end arounds for forty

1206
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:17,680
Speaker 1: six yards. They have a lot of guys that they're

1207
01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:20,120
Speaker 1: just using for a few plays a game and getting

1208
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:21,960
Speaker 1: a lot out of them. John Brown hit another good

1209
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:25,320
Speaker 1: game too. Some of day Ball's most creative play calling

1210
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,280
Speaker 1: came last year when they were even more limited on

1211
01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 1: offense and had to do anything to get generate positive yards.

1212
01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:33,680
Speaker 1: They four and one, and they're they're a ten win

1213
01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,560
Speaker 1: team even with this formula, because you're gonna knock out

1214
01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:39,440
Speaker 1: another six teams between now and New Year's with this

1215
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:43,080
Speaker 1: defense problem. They have a week schedule. We know both

1216
01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 1: of these teams Tytoons are the Tytoons. Also, fans were

1217
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 1: really upset with Mike Vrabel after this game. I didn't

1218
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:51,800
Speaker 1: like watch closely enough because I'm covering two games to

1219
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:53,760
Speaker 1: see why they were upset with him. But they were

1220
01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:55,800
Speaker 1: very upset with Mike Vrabel. And don't think he's a

1221
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,760
Speaker 1: score to start. Well, yeah they got seven points, but

1222
01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:02,000
Speaker 1: to me, that's on the offensive line. Dan, didn't you

1223
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:04,760
Speaker 1: mention it just simply not that this isn't a novelty

1224
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:06,880
Speaker 1: for you, but that you were going you were absolutely

1225
01:01:06,880 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 1: just gonna wait another week before you even got excited

1226
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:13,080
Speaker 1: about them. Well yeah, I mean, but it's it couldn't

1227
01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:14,760
Speaker 1: be everyone who's coming at you. It could not be

1228
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:17,120
Speaker 1: less surprised by the outcome of this game. The offense

1229
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 1: doesn't show up against a good opponent, a good defense.

1230
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:22,720
Speaker 1: You're in your building with a chance to build build

1231
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:25,840
Speaker 1: some momentum. But the Tytoons don't build momentum. They just

1232
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 1: go hot and cold, hot and cold, with nothing in between.

1233
01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,960
Speaker 1: Remember you were right about Smoky Brown all those years ago.

1234
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 1: By the way, he's a true number receiver when he's healthy.

1235
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 1: It's just the true number one. Though I didn't think

1236
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:38,600
Speaker 1: he had this in him. He's been playing great al right,

1237
01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 1: Frank Gore. I used this game to look at that

1238
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:47,920
Speaker 1: guy too. He's still doing well. It's not my heart

1239
01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:49,919
Speaker 1: been riding that train for a long time. It's been

1240
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 1: the train has been going. I don't know what. Uh, no,

1241
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 1: rookie Hollywood. Uh this weekend? She is, I don't know

1242
01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:01,520
Speaker 1: where she is. She's essentially a part time producer at

1243
01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 1: the wedding of our friend Emma. But fair enough. Oh yeah,

1244
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 1: that's right. Okay, congratulations to Emma. By the way, I'm

1245
01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:10,480
Speaker 1: a m a VP of that Vanity podcast what is

1246
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,480
Speaker 1: it called? The end the broadcast? All? I thought you

1247
01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:15,560
Speaker 1: meant that Dave Damna Chek football program. But she has

1248
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:17,800
Speaker 1: moved on from She has moved on to another comp

1249
01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:20,160
Speaker 1: married a man named Brett. A nice guy. Brett's a

1250
01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:21,840
Speaker 1: nice guy. He is a very nice guy and no

1251
01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 1: bile behind the glass, filling in and doing great work

1252
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:27,040
Speaker 1: so far. Um, the one thing you have to work

1253
01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:33,680
Speaker 1: on the bill is the the drop. We might not

1254
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:35,840
Speaker 1: have fluded you in on it yet. So he has

1255
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:39,560
Speaker 1: like a PFF score right now, you're too fine. Just

1256
01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:42,040
Speaker 1: a little orson Wells and we're going to get that

1257
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:44,320
Speaker 1: up to a hundred. He's the Mitchell Schwartz of right tackle.

1258
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:46,400
Speaker 1: Can we get in a bill cam for the YouTube show?

1259
01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 1: I mean, the kid deserves it, he's killing it, does

1260
01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:51,560
Speaker 1: They didn't even get a camera. Look, Bartlett behind the

1261
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:53,800
Speaker 1: glass says no, no camera from the buy. He's like

1262
01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:57,320
Speaker 1: he hasn't earned it on his hair today for that's

1263
01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:59,320
Speaker 1: still giving him the rookie treatment. Let him go, all right?

1264
01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:04,240
Speaker 1: There were two truly dreadful NFC uh NFC East versus

1265
01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:08,240
Speaker 1: a f C East game, so let's knock those outcaud

1266
01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:11,560
Speaker 1: I try to go power one again. They go fourth

1267
01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 1: rolls now fires recepted and recepted by Gary the SIDEWI

1268
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:23,120
Speaker 1: Coast day for Garry, fut South day for Gary, and

1269
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,400
Speaker 1: he comes with the good. So the pick six by

1270
01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:31,960
Speaker 1: Nathan Gary holds up. Nathan Gary, yes, indeed returned an

1271
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:36,520
Speaker 1: interception for a score. Orlando Scandrick took a strip sack

1272
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:40,120
Speaker 1: the distance as well two defensive scores for the Eagles,

1273
01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:43,959
Speaker 1: who route the Jets thirty one to six. In Philadelphia.

1274
01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 1: The Eagles savaged third string Jets quarterback Luke Fowk to

1275
01:03:48,000 --> 01:03:53,520
Speaker 1: the tune of ten sacks sixteen quarterback hits. The Jets

1276
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:56,280
Speaker 1: managed a hundred and twenty five yards against the league's

1277
01:03:56,320 --> 01:04:03,320
Speaker 1: thirty second ranked defense. Entering Sunday Um the Eagles offense met.

1278
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:07,400
Speaker 1: The one thing UH during this dreadful oh and four

1279
01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:09,600
Speaker 1: start for the Jets is that the defense is mostly

1280
01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 1: held up Uh. Not been a great unit, but it

1281
01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:14,720
Speaker 1: has not been embarrassing. It's been the offense that's been embarrassing.

1282
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,360
Speaker 1: And in this case, we saw it again because Carson

1283
01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:19,720
Speaker 1: Wentz was held under two yards passing. He only threw

1284
01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:24,280
Speaker 1: a touchdown one touchdown past Jordan Howard ran for sixty

1285
01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:26,600
Speaker 1: two yards and one touchdown. So a modest day on

1286
01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:29,600
Speaker 1: the ground for the Eagles as well. But when you

1287
01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:34,240
Speaker 1: have a mismatch um and any team that sends Luke

1288
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:36,760
Speaker 1: Fox out on the field is going to have a mismatch.

1289
01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:40,680
Speaker 1: But I think UM with the Jets right now, it's

1290
01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 1: it's so beyond Fox. And And there was the report

1291
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:48,200
Speaker 1: Mike Garifolo reported before the game that um Adam Gaze,

1292
01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:51,760
Speaker 1: who was confident enough in the idea of Sam Donald

1293
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:55,960
Speaker 1: returning from his mono about that he gave Donald the

1294
01:04:56,000 --> 01:05:00,280
Speaker 1: majority of first team reps heading into Friday. UM, and

1295
01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:04,360
Speaker 1: then when Donald was a surprise out because his spleen

1296
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 1: had not UM, I don't know us in size, I

1297
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 1: think returned to its It thrust Funk back into the

1298
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:17,120
Speaker 1: first string and you know what that will be. That

1299
01:05:17,160 --> 01:05:20,840
Speaker 1: will be what everyone gets on Gaze four. Uh. And

1300
01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,920
Speaker 1: that's fine. You could have given Luke Fox a hundred

1301
01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 1: days of reps in a one in a matter, because

1302
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:31,480
Speaker 1: Luke Fowk is not an NFL quarterback. But on the

1303
01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:34,720
Speaker 1: subject of Adam Gaze, there is no way to sugarcoat

1304
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:38,360
Speaker 1: at this point how bad the team looks and they're

1305
01:05:38,360 --> 01:05:41,200
Speaker 1: not gonna win these games. They really got screwed with

1306
01:05:41,240 --> 01:05:43,680
Speaker 1: the schedule because on top of everything else, they're just

1307
01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:46,080
Speaker 1: playing great teams every week, it seems the Jets, But

1308
01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:49,200
Speaker 1: it doesn't excuse the embarrassment week after week and the

1309
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 1: fact that they in this game, they didn't look prepared

1310
01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 1: at all coming off a bye week. So I'm I'm

1311
01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:59,200
Speaker 1: kind of reaching the point and wondering if Adam Gaze

1312
01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:03,320
Speaker 1: could be in danger if Sam Donald doesn't come back

1313
01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:08,600
Speaker 1: and absolutely uh turn this team instantly into a competitive unit.

1314
01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:11,080
Speaker 1: Because I think it's gotten that bad and that embarrassing.

1315
01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:15,000
Speaker 1: I would imagine for Christopher Johnson and Jets owner the Jets,

1316
01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:17,040
Speaker 1: this is not a great set up for Sam Donald.

1317
01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:21,720
Speaker 1: You've got an angry Cowboys team followed by the Patriots

1318
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:25,680
Speaker 1: followed by the Jaguars, and the latter two can damage

1319
01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 1: a quarterback if they want to. And I would say

1320
01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,120
Speaker 1: it's probably a great thing that Sam Donald was not

1321
01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:32,880
Speaker 1: out there today. If he were to take even half

1322
01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:36,320
Speaker 1: the punishment that Luke folketon, well it should be not yes,

1323
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:40,680
Speaker 1: no half. There's no way that that Sam Donald takes

1324
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:45,120
Speaker 1: ten sacks. Fox is completely overwhelmed and he held onto

1325
01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:46,600
Speaker 1: the ball too long. He had a deer in the

1326
01:06:46,600 --> 01:06:48,320
Speaker 1: headlights look for the entire game. He's just not a

1327
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:51,040
Speaker 1: pro quarterback. Maybe he develops in time, but he's an

1328
01:06:51,080 --> 01:06:55,080
Speaker 1: undrafted practice squad player that is just getting killed against

1329
01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:58,400
Speaker 1: great NFL teams. Adding Gaze Blaze, he's a pro quarterback

1330
01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 1: so much that he's employed him at two places and

1331
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:02,560
Speaker 1: brought him with him, So I think he deserves at

1332
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:05,560
Speaker 1: least some of that. Luke Fox, I think you're right.

1333
01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:08,880
Speaker 1: I think that watching the Jets is impossible right now,

1334
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:12,120
Speaker 1: and Gaze deserves a lot of blame for that. Even

1335
01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:15,200
Speaker 1: with the fact that they've lost two quarterbacks, it has

1336
01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:18,360
Speaker 1: been that bad for them. Fourteen drives, nine first downs.

1337
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:21,200
Speaker 1: They did score touchdown on offense for the first time

1338
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:24,200
Speaker 1: this week. One it happened after a muff punt by

1339
01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:27,120
Speaker 1: the Eagles. But you know, Chio Capatia of the Athletics

1340
01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:30,320
Speaker 1: wrote a stat that only three times since the start

1341
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,720
Speaker 1: of last year has a team average under two point

1342
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:37,760
Speaker 1: five yards per play, and the fox last two starts

1343
01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:41,040
Speaker 1: are two of those three. It goes to n So

1344
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 1: there you go. The NFL maybe is not the league

1345
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,560
Speaker 1: for Luke faul. No, he'll be an XFL quarterback in

1346
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:48,000
Speaker 1: about a year or two. Um, this is the worst

1347
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:50,360
Speaker 1: star to jut season in my lifetime. And that's saying

1348
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:54,600
Speaker 1: they are that bad. Eagles. Eagles the last two weeks

1349
01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:57,400
Speaker 1: have gotten off the mat you know in the schedule

1350
01:07:57,440 --> 01:07:59,880
Speaker 1: helps him out this week, but with so many in

1351
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:02,640
Speaker 1: reason and they still have them. Uh, that's pretty crucial

1352
01:08:02,680 --> 01:08:05,080
Speaker 1: for a team that now is tied for the NFC

1353
01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:07,760
Speaker 1: East lead. And check this out. Yes they're now they're

1354
01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:10,400
Speaker 1: three and two and the Jets was a great basic

1355
01:08:10,440 --> 01:08:13,040
Speaker 1: practice run through. Now they go on a three game

1356
01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:18,200
Speaker 1: road trip where they get at Minnesota, at Dallas, at Buffalo,

1357
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:22,760
Speaker 1: then they come home for Bears Patriots, Seahawks. That is

1358
01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:25,479
Speaker 1: a gauntlet. That's a gauntlet, and you you imagine you

1359
01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:29,479
Speaker 1: would sign off maybe for three and three there wait

1360
01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:31,439
Speaker 1: to Tucker would be super Bowl run. If you're a

1361
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:34,280
Speaker 1: wild card team into the middle of your season, would

1362
01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:36,000
Speaker 1: you be happy with three and three? I don't know.

1363
01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,600
Speaker 1: Probably not. You're probably if you few yourself as a

1364
01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:40,559
Speaker 1: Super Bowl contender, you want to win four of those six.

1365
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:42,280
Speaker 1: But it's not gonna be easy. I would imagine the

1366
01:08:42,280 --> 01:08:44,280
Speaker 1: Eagles look at their roster and think, we can beat

1367
01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:46,800
Speaker 1: any team any week. We should beat any team any week.

1368
01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:50,759
Speaker 1: Let us move on to the nation's capital or close

1369
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:55,040
Speaker 1: to it. Landover that's in the Middy under center on

1370
01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:57,280
Speaker 1: the retreat, dropping back, he's pressure, he rolls wife, he

1371
01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,360
Speaker 1: throws a coming rightside for an open bowl and catch

1372
01:08:59,360 --> 01:09:05,880
Speaker 1: it for Farndon. Then Joe touchdown. Patriots Brandon Bolden shades

1373
01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:08,600
Speaker 1: of Denver several years ago in the snow got the

1374
01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:10,600
Speaker 1: gout you last year when he was in Miami, have

1375
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:13,120
Speaker 1: two big touchdown runs. They bring him out of the backfield.

1376
01:09:13,120 --> 01:09:15,519
Speaker 1: He goes off the tight end, little double move, will

1377
01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 1: route and it's a perfect throw by Brady. It's twenty

1378
01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:21,840
Speaker 1: nine yard touchdown the Brandon bold Yeah, that is enough,

1379
01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:27,040
Speaker 1: come down. We let him out of jail. That's not

1380
01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:31,360
Speaker 1: getting Really, this is the official song of the Patriots.

1381
01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:35,599
Speaker 1: We're gonna hear it's sixteen or seventeen more times. Bob

1382
01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:38,679
Speaker 1: Sochi and Scott Zolak with the call Patriots Radio Network.

1383
01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:42,640
Speaker 1: Tom Brady throws for three yards three touchdowns, including that

1384
01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:45,200
Speaker 1: hook up the Brandon Bolden, and the Pats got another

1385
01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:50,520
Speaker 1: strong performance from their d to seven win over the Redskins,

1386
01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:52,400
Speaker 1: who are still looking for a w. Some of these

1387
01:09:52,439 --> 01:09:55,240
Speaker 1: bad teams are just dragging down our schedule week after

1388
01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:58,719
Speaker 1: week with non competitive games, and the Jets and Washington

1389
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 1: are two of them. Mark, what did you take away

1390
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:04,040
Speaker 1: from this game featuring teams on opposite sides of the

1391
01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:07,160
Speaker 1: pro football spectrum. You know that I like to call

1392
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,120
Speaker 1: games early on and just see if it's sticks. And

1393
01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:15,000
Speaker 1: my internal game of our buzzer hit when Mike Nugent

1394
01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:18,040
Speaker 1: nailed a thirty seven yard field goal to put New

1395
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,160
Speaker 1: England up nine to six, and there was the reason

1396
01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:23,640
Speaker 1: was very simple that you knew that Washington got an

1397
01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:28,280
Speaker 1: early touchdown off a pretty crazy reverse by a guy

1398
01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:33,120
Speaker 1: name let me Steven Sims Jr. The undrafted rookie, and

1399
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,519
Speaker 1: that put him up early. But then you could tell

1400
01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:38,160
Speaker 1: right away that this call McCoy led offense. And it

1401
01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:41,000
Speaker 1: hurt me to to observe this so early in the game.

1402
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:45,960
Speaker 1: Was doomed, utterly doomed. And New England the one takeaway.

1403
01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:48,400
Speaker 1: And I know it looks absurd inside a game that

1404
01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:52,240
Speaker 1: wound up thirty three to seven, little concerned about their

1405
01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:55,960
Speaker 1: offense through the first thirty minutes of this because they

1406
01:10:56,000 --> 01:10:57,800
Speaker 1: they put a lot The Redskins put a ton of

1407
01:10:57,840 --> 01:11:00,200
Speaker 1: heat on Brady and I know that we know he's

1408
01:11:00,400 --> 01:11:03,360
Speaker 1: one of the slowest guys, but he looked extra slow,

1409
01:11:03,560 --> 01:11:06,559
Speaker 1: like shoes filled with the mixture of I know they

1410
01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:10,040
Speaker 1: would say cement, so cement plus like iron fillings and

1411
01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:12,040
Speaker 1: like car parts that you could fit in there. I mean,

1412
01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:14,880
Speaker 1: it was just he's running like a man that did

1413
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:18,960
Speaker 1: not fit out there athletically. They threw the ball thirty

1414
01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:21,720
Speaker 1: one times in the first half, basically gave up on

1415
01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:24,599
Speaker 1: the ground game and just went after the Redskins until

1416
01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:26,960
Speaker 1: they kind of pushed their way through them. I don't

1417
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:31,800
Speaker 1: see a lot of chemistry between Tom Brady and Josh

1418
01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:33,800
Speaker 1: Gordon at this point for the kind of player that

1419
01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:37,120
Speaker 1: you think Josh Gordon could be. But Edelman took the

1420
01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:40,880
Speaker 1: game over in the second half. The defense was unbelievable.

1421
01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:43,680
Speaker 1: And to me, that's a lot on the Redskins that

1422
01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:46,360
Speaker 1: just have no They have no there's nothing about them

1423
01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:49,120
Speaker 1: that gives them any hint of identity. It's shut down

1424
01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:52,280
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson in a wanting quarterback behind it, one of

1425
01:11:52,360 --> 01:11:53,960
Speaker 1: a line that looked as bad as any line in

1426
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,840
Speaker 1: the NFC in the first half of this game. I

1427
01:11:56,840 --> 01:11:59,240
Speaker 1: don't know what. Gruden doesn't even care anymore. By the way,

1428
01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:01,920
Speaker 1: after the game, Uh, he's asked again as he's asked

1429
01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:04,600
Speaker 1: every week now, and it cannot be easy, you know,

1430
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,320
Speaker 1: do you think you're gonna get fired soon? And he said, well,

1431
01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:10,240
Speaker 1: I'll see if my key card works on Monday, which

1432
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:12,920
Speaker 1: is an honest response because if I imagine, he feels

1433
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:15,719
Speaker 1: very much in the dark, uh, and his own organization

1434
01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:17,840
Speaker 1: right now, which has to be a tough situation. And

1435
01:12:17,880 --> 01:12:20,719
Speaker 1: he also said that when they asked me thought he's

1436
01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:24,080
Speaker 1: been given enough time to turn this program around, and

1437
01:12:24,160 --> 01:12:28,120
Speaker 1: it hasn't happened. That is a guy who knows. Look,

1438
01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:31,320
Speaker 1: I've had one of the toughest jobs in sports and

1439
01:12:31,320 --> 01:12:33,640
Speaker 1: and I fought the good fight for a while, and

1440
01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:35,439
Speaker 1: it's not gonna happen for me. And I know. Adrian

1441
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:39,880
Speaker 1: Peterson had an amazing quote when asked about the Patriots defense,

1442
01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:41,479
Speaker 1: and he said they showed a lot, a lot of

1443
01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:44,960
Speaker 1: exotic stuff on film, but against us, they didn't really

1444
01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:47,840
Speaker 1: you know, it was like, Hey, we'll sit back here

1445
01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:50,599
Speaker 1: and see what you guys do and allow you guys

1446
01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:54,639
Speaker 1: to mess up. That's a Hall of Fame player who's

1447
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:58,479
Speaker 1: diagnosing that the Patriots are basically dialing it back against

1448
01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:00,879
Speaker 1: the Redskins because they know they can what an advantage

1449
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:03,639
Speaker 1: not show anything on film for a regular season week.

1450
01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 1: I hope Jake Gruden meets up with Red and they

1451
01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:08,920
Speaker 1: go to Zee Watton Neo and he just chills for

1452
01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:12,320
Speaker 1: a while. He's earned it. Yeah, poor Gruden. They even

1453
01:13:12,360 --> 01:13:15,880
Speaker 1: you know those video services of him partying. Uh, and

1454
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:18,200
Speaker 1: you wonder the timing on that. It's just it's a

1455
01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:21,800
Speaker 1: horrible situation. You just when that job becomes available, as

1456
01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:27,320
Speaker 1: it inevitably will, um in January. Who who wants that job?

1457
01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:29,439
Speaker 1: And I know there's there's only thirty two of these

1458
01:13:29,520 --> 01:13:32,160
Speaker 1: jobs in the world, and being a head coach is

1459
01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:35,160
Speaker 1: always the goal for anybody that's starting from when you're

1460
01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:39,439
Speaker 1: you know, coaching peewee football. But God, this just feels

1461
01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:42,600
Speaker 1: like a hopeless situation Washington right now. Maybe Adam no

1462
01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:47,880
Speaker 1: more Patriots, bring Jim Zorn back. No more Patriots Bears comparisons, please,

1463
01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:51,160
Speaker 1: until they play a real offense. I mean, I've never

1464
01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:53,559
Speaker 1: made I I'm surprised that everyone coming out of that

1465
01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:56,640
Speaker 1: Bill's game especially didn't think, oh, the Bill's defense is

1466
01:13:56,680 --> 01:13:58,439
Speaker 1: the best one on the field. I think any defense

1467
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:00,599
Speaker 1: in today's NFL is gonna heart have a hard time

1468
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:03,120
Speaker 1: truly dominated. I'm with you on the page of defense,

1469
01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:05,760
Speaker 1: the best defense in the league, and they've been lights

1470
01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:08,720
Speaker 1: out since what the first half of the a f

1471
01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:12,320
Speaker 1: C Championship game last week last year. But let's see,

1472
01:14:12,479 --> 01:14:14,200
Speaker 1: let's see him play somebody. I mean, this must be

1473
01:14:14,240 --> 01:14:16,519
Speaker 1: coming from people who never saw the five Bears, who

1474
01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:19,360
Speaker 1: would not only stomp you, but knock your quarterback out

1475
01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:22,479
Speaker 1: of the game every week. It's statistical, that's Scott's piling up.

1476
01:14:22,479 --> 01:14:25,720
Speaker 1: But it's all because they lost Philip or set to

1477
01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,320
Speaker 1: hamstring injury early. That's that could be a pretty big

1478
01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:31,040
Speaker 1: loss if it's for a while. Because they're thin. They're

1479
01:14:31,080 --> 01:14:34,760
Speaker 1: thin there. They'll be fun. They'll be fun offense, you know. Oh,

1480
01:14:34,840 --> 01:14:37,240
Speaker 1: they're in the market for for offensive help. They're one

1481
01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:40,160
Speaker 1: of the teams connected to all these receivers. Let's go

1482
01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:43,360
Speaker 1: with just get digs in there, get a j Green,

1483
01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:46,120
Speaker 1: bring Antonio Brown back, get in there. Could he use

1484
01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:48,679
Speaker 1: a guy like Brown maybe later in the season. Let's

1485
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:52,120
Speaker 1: move on to Sunday night football homes under center, hands

1486
01:14:52,120 --> 01:14:55,400
Speaker 1: off the Damnian lawyers docked up, but got it, don't sir?

1487
01:14:56,520 --> 01:15:01,240
Speaker 1: Houston coming up sorts again for the big fellow the

1488
01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:04,479
Speaker 1: Cults Knights, and there gets a tackle for loss on

1489
01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:08,520
Speaker 1: fourth down and the Cults takeover and plus territory inside

1490
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:12,679
Speaker 1: the chief threty five yard line. You heard it, Matt Taylor,

1491
01:15:13,479 --> 01:15:18,639
Speaker 1: the Cults Radio Network, the justin Houston. Revenge game, revenge game,

1492
01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:23,000
Speaker 1: revenge game, revenge games are undefeated. He makes the big

1493
01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:27,080
Speaker 1: stop on fourth down, basically putting a bow on an

1494
01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:30,840
Speaker 1: incredible effort by the Cults. You go into arrowhead, those

1495
01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:35,719
Speaker 1: are this horrible music It's like Dirk Diggler's band. I mean,

1496
01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:38,320
Speaker 1: you got the touch. It's a good band. The fact

1497
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:42,000
Speaker 1: that Huey Lewis is resorting to these cheap tactics to

1498
01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:46,000
Speaker 1: get a cheap bucks, shame on you, shadowy league figures.

1499
01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:48,000
Speaker 1: Look what you've done to ours. That a little back

1500
01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:53,040
Speaker 1: although kind of looks like the producer from the studio book,

1501
01:15:53,400 --> 01:16:00,519
Speaker 1: But oh what a disgrace. All right? Anyway, Colts win.

1502
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:07,840
Speaker 1: Colts win in a game they absolutely um dominated time

1503
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:16,240
Speaker 1: of possession seven minutes and fifteen seconds. And yes, yes,

1504
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:19,840
Speaker 1: Chris Westling, the Chiefs were beat up in this game.

1505
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:24,240
Speaker 1: Guys went down and once Patrick Mahomes got spiked by

1506
01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:27,200
Speaker 1: his teammate and the ankle, he was never the same quarterback.

1507
01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:31,240
Speaker 1: And that probably or may have swung this game. But

1508
01:16:31,320 --> 01:16:33,720
Speaker 1: the culture beat up too. They deserve a lot of

1509
01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:35,400
Speaker 1: credit for what they were able to pull off tonight.

1510
01:16:35,880 --> 01:16:39,840
Speaker 1: Well before this game, nobody had ever held Patrick Mahomes

1511
01:16:39,880 --> 01:16:43,000
Speaker 1: and Adie Reid under twenty six points and the Colts

1512
01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:46,920
Speaker 1: haved that, So give them a ton of credit. And

1513
01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:49,840
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins left with the hamstring injury. They had some

1514
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:53,080
Speaker 1: offensive line injuries. Like you said, the Mahomes injury that

1515
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:55,000
Speaker 1: it didn't feel like we were dealing with a full

1516
01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:58,080
Speaker 1: deck of cars. But give the Colts credit. No, what

1517
01:16:58,120 --> 01:17:00,639
Speaker 1: did nobody else is stopping this offense? No Chris Jones

1518
01:17:00,760 --> 01:17:03,240
Speaker 1: maybe the biggest injury for the Chiefs if that turns

1519
01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:05,200
Speaker 1: into a long term injury, But the Colts are gonna

1520
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:07,639
Speaker 1: feel bad for anyone. And when it comes to injuries,

1521
01:17:07,640 --> 01:17:11,479
Speaker 1: they're missing both their two starting safeties. They're missing Darius Leonard.

1522
01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:14,479
Speaker 1: And what they've found in this three and to start

1523
01:17:14,560 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 1: before they thereby is a backbone and an identity that's

1524
01:17:18,640 --> 01:17:20,880
Speaker 1: up front, and that means there's a small margin for air.

1525
01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:24,320
Speaker 1: I don't think it's the most talented team one to

1526
01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:26,960
Speaker 1: fifty three in the league, but they're in every game,

1527
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:30,080
Speaker 1: and in a game like this where they started just

1528
01:17:30,200 --> 01:17:33,160
Speaker 1: running downhill and mashing the Chiefs. There there is a

1529
01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:35,559
Speaker 1: spirit to this team, and I think Jacobe Brisette, even

1530
01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:37,880
Speaker 1: on a night where he didn't play that well, fits

1531
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:41,800
Speaker 1: within this spirit that seems like a tone setter for them. Right.

1532
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:43,840
Speaker 1: Anthony Costanzo is playing well and I think the coach

1533
01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:47,960
Speaker 1: gives them real advantages every week. I see plays that

1534
01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:51,280
Speaker 1: Frank Reich draws up that are beautiful and that his

1535
01:17:51,360 --> 01:17:54,360
Speaker 1: players execute well, but that you don't see on most teams.

1536
01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:57,599
Speaker 1: I love their defense too. It's like guys like Carrie

1537
01:17:57,600 --> 01:18:01,320
Speaker 1: Willis and Grover Stewart, Bobby o creat like these are stars.

1538
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:04,200
Speaker 1: You can call about the justin Houston revenge game, but

1539
01:18:04,240 --> 01:18:06,200
Speaker 1: you gotta check the box score to get the full

1540
01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:09,520
Speaker 1: name on these because because they're they're an emerging defense

1541
01:18:09,960 --> 01:18:12,320
Speaker 1: and they play very well together. And this, to me

1542
01:18:12,840 --> 01:18:15,000
Speaker 1: is the kind of game I'll sign up for every time.

1543
01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:19,479
Speaker 1: Because the Colts kept offering these seven a half, eight

1544
01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:23,920
Speaker 1: nine minute punished four team play three five yard drive,

1545
01:18:23,960 --> 01:18:26,639
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever seen that. What better method,

1546
01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:29,760
Speaker 1: what better recipe to take the Chief's offense out? Now

1547
01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 1: that the injuries reduced Kansas City to sault tonight, but

1548
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:34,840
Speaker 1: that this is the recipe. The four teen play thirty

1549
01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:37,439
Speaker 1: five yard drive that covered eight minutes and thirty four

1550
01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:41,040
Speaker 1: seconds and ended with an Adam Vinetieri thirty one yard

1551
01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:45,080
Speaker 1: field goal. Vinetieri is got things under control here. Hit

1552
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:47,920
Speaker 1: a bunch of really short ones today thirty two, thirty two,

1553
01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:52,479
Speaker 1: thirty one and twenty nine. Um. That was the one

1554
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:56,880
Speaker 1: where you saw that the Chiefs were essentially gassed and

1555
01:18:56,920 --> 01:19:00,280
Speaker 1: they were getting beaten at the line of screw image

1556
01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:03,040
Speaker 1: and getting pushed around. And when the Chiefs got back

1557
01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:05,960
Speaker 1: on the field, and you kept on thinking, especially when

1558
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:08,040
Speaker 1: they do get off the field after that long drive

1559
01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:11,120
Speaker 1: at six and he's still got a half quarter to play,

1560
01:19:11,120 --> 01:19:12,680
Speaker 1: and you think, oh, this is where the Chiefs go

1561
01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:15,080
Speaker 1: down the field and take a one point lead. While

1562
01:19:15,080 --> 01:19:17,320
Speaker 1: they couldn't do it. The offense just could not get going.

1563
01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:21,680
Speaker 1: Uh and Mahomes it, you know, I I hated the

1564
01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:23,680
Speaker 1: way this game played out. You know, good on the

1565
01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:25,679
Speaker 1: Colts for what they've did done, But when you see

1566
01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:28,360
Speaker 1: want to see Patrick Mahomes on Sunday Night football. I'm

1567
01:19:28,360 --> 01:19:31,920
Speaker 1: looking for the laser show and to see him and

1568
01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:35,400
Speaker 1: he that touchdown pass was vintage Mahomes. But to see

1569
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:38,640
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes limping around is it hurts my heart. And

1570
01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:41,880
Speaker 1: I know, uh, Ryan Barlett behind the glasses a cheese fan,

1571
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:44,200
Speaker 1: you're not used to that because he's so He's been

1572
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:47,240
Speaker 1: so brilliant. It was just that watching the Colts from

1573
01:19:47,240 --> 01:19:49,920
Speaker 1: a different perspective and it wasn't an easy watch. I

1574
01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:52,280
Speaker 1: think they the Colts might have a star on Cory

1575
01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:55,519
Speaker 1: Willis that he's starting for injuries, but he might be

1576
01:19:55,560 --> 01:19:58,160
Speaker 1: hard to take out the lineup. Bobby Yoga Riki's playing

1577
01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:01,479
Speaker 1: well as Mark said, and Grover Still who Chris Collins

1578
01:20:01,479 --> 01:20:03,040
Speaker 1: were act like he never heard of him. This guy's

1579
01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:05,080
Speaker 1: been playing well ever going back to training camp well

1580
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:07,400
Speaker 1: and Justin Houston had his best game probably as a colt.

1581
01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:10,400
Speaker 1: And Comico Terrey returned from an injury and played well

1582
01:20:10,479 --> 01:20:13,080
Speaker 1: until he got hurt. Indnico Autrey, who did miss a

1583
01:20:13,120 --> 01:20:15,120
Speaker 1: game or two in the middle, has been their best

1584
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:18,360
Speaker 1: player on defense. They they have some players, but Marlon

1585
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:21,559
Speaker 1: Max the guy to me, he's playing behind that great

1586
01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:24,000
Speaker 1: offensive line, but I love the way he runs. He's

1587
01:20:24,120 --> 01:20:26,800
Speaker 1: very smart about the holes that he picks. Reminds me

1588
01:20:26,840 --> 01:20:28,800
Speaker 1: a little bit of a smaller Frank Or who we

1589
01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:30,880
Speaker 1: learned from. I think I think he got some tips

1590
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:33,240
Speaker 1: from The Inconvenient Truth. And on the chief side, they're

1591
01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:35,920
Speaker 1: running game could not get it going. Damian Williams average

1592
01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:38,479
Speaker 1: two and a half yards to carry nine for twenty

1593
01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:41,240
Speaker 1: three uh and he was their leading rusher. There was

1594
01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:44,080
Speaker 1: just nothing going on for the for the Chiefs h

1595
01:20:44,120 --> 01:20:45,960
Speaker 1: in any phase of their offense. They just couldn't get

1596
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:49,320
Speaker 1: it going. Travis Kelsey was quiet. Four catches on ten

1597
01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:52,479
Speaker 1: targets Byron Pringle couldn't get that first down, and I

1598
01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:55,320
Speaker 1: still have no idea. I need the next tell me

1599
01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:58,280
Speaker 1: how he didn't. It was like he almost ran backwards.

1600
01:20:58,439 --> 01:21:00,640
Speaker 1: I mean, Kansas City's line is not right, and we

1601
01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:04,880
Speaker 1: every week we watch quarterbacks that are not opts. They're

1602
01:21:04,920 --> 01:21:06,680
Speaker 1: not operating the way you want them to or the

1603
01:21:06,680 --> 01:21:09,240
Speaker 1: way they're being paid because their offensive line is creating

1604
01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:11,920
Speaker 1: total hell in front of them. This happened for a

1605
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,040
Speaker 1: lot of reasons tonight, but Patrick Mahomes was not able

1606
01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:16,960
Speaker 1: to just do this on his own. He's not getting

1607
01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:19,280
Speaker 1: the protection. Chiefs in fine shape. At four and one,

1608
01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:21,120
Speaker 1: you got the Raiders behind you. At three and two,

1609
01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:23,280
Speaker 1: the Chargers are struggling. But I do think the a

1610
01:21:23,360 --> 01:21:26,840
Speaker 1: f C, you know, race for a buy and and

1611
01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 1: number one seed is gonna be going to keep an

1612
01:21:29,360 --> 01:21:32,519
Speaker 1: eye on the whole year. Please. The Chiefs are facing

1613
01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:35,800
Speaker 1: the Patriots. The Chiefs are loaded. One one week isn't

1614
01:21:35,800 --> 01:21:37,479
Speaker 1: going to change that, but now they're one behind. I'm

1615
01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:40,719
Speaker 1: not worried about the Chiefs long term unless these injuries

1616
01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:44,160
Speaker 1: either continue to pile up or linger because you saw

1617
01:21:44,200 --> 01:21:47,160
Speaker 1: they are human. After all. There's talk that they'll get

1618
01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:49,720
Speaker 1: tyreek Hill back next week to one little thing on

1619
01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:51,760
Speaker 1: the Cults. I don't love that they wound up with

1620
01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:55,479
Speaker 1: no timeouts with eleven plus minutes to go, but they

1621
01:21:55,520 --> 01:21:57,120
Speaker 1: coached the way out of that with the way they

1622
01:21:57,120 --> 01:21:59,960
Speaker 1: played down the stretch. That was like an absolute beat

1623
01:22:00,080 --> 01:22:03,800
Speaker 1: down fever dream mid fourth quarter. On To lose Andrew

1624
01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:06,240
Speaker 1: Luck and to have the injuries that they've had in

1625
01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:09,640
Speaker 1: the first five weeks of the season, it is remarkable.

1626
01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:12,839
Speaker 1: They're three and two entering the bye. They're even starting

1627
01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:16,360
Speaker 1: to warm the cold heart of Chris Wesley. This entire

1628
01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:20,320
Speaker 1: show is around is about trying to get teams to

1629
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,719
Speaker 1: win over West. At this point, Wait, I I've shown

1630
01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:29,680
Speaker 1: nothing but appreciate kidding. I was originally the Cults, and

1631
01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:32,840
Speaker 1: maybe once more I get it. Without Andrew Luck, it's

1632
01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:35,000
Speaker 1: it's not the same, all right. You know, we gotta

1633
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:37,160
Speaker 1: get on the place. Let's go. We gotta go, we

1634
