He beat 82 00:03:31,228 --> 00:03:34,148 Speaker 5: him in an epic Divisional round game a couple years 83 00:03:34,148 --> 00:03:36,588 Speaker 5: ago and beat him an NFC Championship game the year 84 00:03:36,628 --> 00:03:40,508 Speaker 5: before that. Josh Allen's been amazing against the Chiefs his 85 00:03:40,668 --> 00:03:45,748 Speaker 5: entire career statistically, but he hasn't gotten that playoff win. Finally, finally, 86 00:03:45,828 --> 00:03:48,828 Speaker 5: it's Josh Allen on his turf. And when I say turf, 87 00:03:48,948 --> 00:03:51,028 Speaker 5: I might as well be talking about a concrete slab. 88 00:03:51,548 --> 00:03:53,468 Speaker 5: That is where they will be playing on Sunday night. 89 00:03:53,508 --> 00:03:56,188 Speaker 5: It is the same weather situation as it was last week. 90 00:03:56,228 --> 00:03:59,188 Speaker 5: It's cold, it's hard on that surface, and it is 91 00:03:59,228 --> 00:04:02,948 Speaker 5: where the Bills live and breathe, and it comes Mahomes 92 00:04:03,388 --> 00:04:06,228 Speaker 5: first time ever with this Chiefs group going for a 93 00:04:06,348 --> 00:04:09,068 Speaker 5: road playoff game, especially in cold weather, as the only 94 00:04:09,108 --> 00:04:10,588 Speaker 5: time they even at the board a bus or a 95 00:04:10,628 --> 00:04:12,948 Speaker 5: plane was to go to Tampa for a Super Bowl 96 00:04:12,948 --> 00:04:13,828 Speaker 5: a couple of years back. 97 00:04:13,908 --> 00:04:15,748 Speaker 2: I look at this and I think of legacies. 98 00:04:15,948 --> 00:04:18,348 Speaker 5: I think of history, and I think of what each 99 00:04:18,428 --> 00:04:20,868 Speaker 5: quarterback can say as far as when we talk about 100 00:04:20,908 --> 00:04:23,788 Speaker 5: them at their potential Hall of Fame speeches years from now. 101 00:04:24,068 --> 00:04:26,148 Speaker 5: Is Mahomes going to be the guy that just owned 102 00:04:26,308 --> 00:04:28,108 Speaker 5: his arch nemesis, He's going to be the guy that 103 00:04:28,228 --> 00:04:31,428 Speaker 5: just always got the best of his rival. Or is 104 00:04:31,468 --> 00:04:33,548 Speaker 5: this going to be one like you referenced yesterday where 105 00:04:33,548 --> 00:04:37,428 Speaker 5: Peyton Manning finally got his years after that rivalry began, 106 00:04:37,908 --> 00:04:39,308 Speaker 5: and then he was the one to kind of put 107 00:04:39,308 --> 00:04:41,828 Speaker 5: the finishing touch over the set last several seasons of 108 00:04:41,828 --> 00:04:43,908 Speaker 5: their careers. I'm rooting for both quarterbacks. I want to 109 00:04:43,948 --> 00:04:46,468 Speaker 5: see both quarterbacks have great games. I'm rooting for both coaches. 110 00:04:46,508 --> 00:04:48,508 Speaker 5: I believe you who are friends of the show. I've 111 00:04:48,548 --> 00:04:51,228 Speaker 5: torn on even making a pick in this game because 112 00:04:51,308 --> 00:04:53,908 Speaker 5: as much as I trust Mahomes and love what the 113 00:04:53,948 --> 00:04:57,028 Speaker 5: Chiefs are all about, I think that Buffalo deserves a 114 00:04:57,108 --> 00:05:00,148 Speaker 5: year of destiny as well. It's time Buffalo might have 115 00:05:00,148 --> 00:05:02,308 Speaker 5: a window as well. This is what it's about. This 116 00:05:02,348 --> 00:05:04,188 Speaker 5: is why we watch all the games during the regular 117 00:05:04,148 --> 00:05:06,908 Speaker 5: seas and so that in the playoffs, in cold weather, 118 00:05:07,348 --> 00:05:10,188 Speaker 5: on a field that is not comfortable for the reigning champions, 119 00:05:10,348 --> 00:05:12,108 Speaker 5: we get Allen versus Mahomes. 120 00:05:12,188 --> 00:05:12,788 Speaker 2: I'm here for it. 121 00:05:12,788 --> 00:05:14,668 Speaker 5: I hope that sets the table for everybody. The game 122 00:05:14,748 --> 00:05:15,828 Speaker 5: is just forty eight hours ago. 123 00:05:16,148 --> 00:05:16,988 Speaker 4: Let's got job. 124 00:05:17,548 --> 00:05:20,188 Speaker 9: I think everybody's waiting for that one Sunday ninety way 125 00:05:20,228 --> 00:05:22,508 Speaker 9: for when you say part seven, I let you know 126 00:05:22,548 --> 00:05:26,028 Speaker 9: that has been amazing.

One of those will 178 00:07:34,948 --> 00:07:35,908 Speaker 1: start the Super Bowl. 179 00:07:35,908 --> 00:07:37,708 Speaker 4: That is awesome. However, I'm looking to. 180 00:07:37,668 --> 00:07:39,948 Speaker 1: The AFC because I used to watch all I don't 181 00:07:39,948 --> 00:07:41,588 Speaker 1: really keep up anymore, like a lot of people with 182 00:07:41,628 --> 00:07:42,308 Speaker 1: the Marvel stuff. 183 00:07:42,348 --> 00:07:43,068 Speaker 4: I used to always watch. 184 00:07:43,108 --> 00:07:44,548 Speaker 1: At the end of the Avengers movies, we'll be that 185 00:07:44,548 --> 00:07:47,148 Speaker 1: cut scene after thirty seven minutes of credits, there'd be 186 00:07:47,188 --> 00:07:49,028 Speaker 1: a twelve second thing that everyone pretends they know what 187 00:07:49,028 --> 00:07:50,828 Speaker 1: it is. And I remember at one of them, there's 188 00:07:50,868 --> 00:07:52,508 Speaker 1: stanos Is up there and he wasn't in the movie, 189 00:07:52,548 --> 00:07:54,588 Speaker 1: but he was watching these petty little villains get kicked 190 00:07:54,588 --> 00:07:56,988 Speaker 1: around by the Avengers, and Thanas is like, fine, I'll 191 00:07:56,988 --> 00:07:59,148 Speaker 1: do it myself, and he puts on his helmet and 192 00:07:59,188 --> 00:08:00,988 Speaker 1: his weapons. That's how I look at the Niners and 193 00:08:01,028 --> 00:08:03,668 Speaker 1: the Ravens this weekend, sitting there watching this petty little 194 00:08:03,708 --> 00:08:06,468 Speaker 1: wild card around this playing tournament for the real thing. 195 00:08:06,788 --> 00:08:10,028 Speaker 1: They're the one season specifically, I'm just watching Baltimore, and 196 00:08:10,068 --> 00:08:12,348 Speaker 1: I'm watching Baltimore early. I feel like we haven't seen 197 00:08:12,428 --> 00:08:14,428 Speaker 1: Lamar in six months. I feel like we haven't seen 198 00:08:14,508 --> 00:08:16,828 Speaker 1: Zay Flowers. It wasn't just to buy. It was the 199 00:08:16,828 --> 00:08:19,268 Speaker 1: week eighteen and they're sitting and resting, and that's great. 200 00:08:19,668 --> 00:08:22,228 Speaker 1: I've spent a lot of oxygen this this week talking 201 00:08:22,228 --> 00:08:24,908 Speaker 1: about how in four Baltimore playoff games with Lamar they 202 00:08:24,908 --> 00:08:26,188 Speaker 1: have scored zero points in. 203 00:08:26,108 --> 00:08:28,868 Speaker 4: The first quarter. That's really strange. It's a very. 204 00:08:28,708 --> 00:08:30,908 Speaker 1: Strange stat even though one that they won, they were 205 00:08:30,908 --> 00:08:33,068 Speaker 1: down ten to nothing after the first quarter. Now, a 206 00:08:33,068 --> 00:08:35,148 Speaker 1: lot of Ravens fans, to their credit, have been like, 207 00:08:35,268 --> 00:08:38,028 Speaker 1: you're right, You're right. It is concerned And however, that's 208 00:08:38,028 --> 00:08:40,628 Speaker 1: a different offense, that's a different coordinator, that's a different era. 209 00:08:40,988 --> 00:08:43,028 Speaker 1: That was a totally Stone age thing compared to what 210 00:08:43,028 --> 00:08:45,388 Speaker 1: we're doing now. We are a different team. Great, I 211 00:08:45,428 --> 00:08:47,668 Speaker 1: love it, I'm into it. But the one thing you 212 00:08:47,748 --> 00:08:49,788 Speaker 1: do not want to give an upstart team like the 213 00:08:49,828 --> 00:08:52,668 Speaker 1: Texans with a rookie quarterback and rookie coach is hope, 214 00:08:53,028 --> 00:08:55,148 Speaker 1: that sweet, sweet hope that you look up at the 215 00:08:55,148 --> 00:08:57,988 Speaker 1: scoreboard fifteen minutes in and you're saying, not only can 216 00:08:58,028 --> 00:08:59,988 Speaker 1: we play with these guys, I think we won the 217 00:09:00,028 --> 00:09:02,468 Speaker 1: first couple of rounds. I want Baltimore to get out 218 00:09:02,548 --> 00:09:05,868 Speaker 1: early and to vanquish all hope from these sweet little 219 00:09:05,908 --> 00:09:08,308 Speaker 1: Houston Texans. I want that place to be rocking at 220 00:09:08,428 --> 00:09:09,988 Speaker 1: M and T and the brick wall and the state 221 00:09:10,068 --> 00:09:13,388 Speaker 1: logo and Lamar and Riccard and everybody Early Early, do 222 00:09:13,468 --> 00:09:16,068 Speaker 1: not wait, do not let a glimmer of hope stomp 223 00:09:16,108 --> 00:09:17,388 Speaker 1: on it and twist your foot. 224 00:09:17,668 --> 00:09:18,548 Speaker 4: Baltimore Early. 225 00:09:18,588 --> 00:09:21,228 Speaker 1: If they come out rusty, shaky, we may have something 226 00:09:21,228 --> 00:09:22,428 Speaker 1: crazy happening to Baltimore. 227 00:09:22,468 --> 00:09:27,308 Speaker 4: Early. Baltimore their last thing. Confidence is a reason to believe. 228 00:09:27,428 --> 00:09:29,148 Speaker 2: Ye don't give them even an inch. 229 00:09:29,268 --> 00:09:31,268 Speaker 1: You going to the halftime and you know we're down 230 00:09:31,468 --> 00:09:34,468 Speaker 1: nine to seven to Baltimore. I think we can do this. Now, 231 00:09:34,588 --> 00:09:38,268 Speaker 1: be down sixteen to three, Baltimore. You're powerful. Unleash your power. 232 00:09:38,428 --> 00:09:42,068 Speaker 3: That gives rookie coach, rookie quarterback perfect fodder. Just tell ya, 233 00:09:42,068 --> 00:09:44,628 Speaker 3: I think we can do it all So BADJ Stroud 234 00:09:44,708 --> 00:09:46,708 Speaker 3: is walking around right now playing with house money. He's 235 00:09:46,788 --> 00:09:49,708 Speaker 3: just like, Oh, I have already proved everyone else wrong. 236 00:09:49,788 --> 00:09:51,708 Speaker 3: I've already gotten my team to a point where we 237 00:09:51,748 --> 00:09:55,788 Speaker 3: are setting records, resetting history books, becoming the youngest starting 238 00:09:55,828 --> 00:09:58,948 Speaker 3: quarterback to ever win a playoff game last weekend. Cej 239 00:09:59,068 --> 00:10:02,868 Speaker 3: Stroud has had an unbelievable season. And then it continued. 240 00:10:02,908 --> 00:10:05,188 Speaker 3: He's got the dot dot dot going if he wins 241 00:10:05,188 --> 00:10:07,748 Speaker 3: this weekend, and he very well could, because this team, 242 00:10:07,868 --> 00:10:08,788 Speaker 3: they don't know, we talked. 243 00:10:08,588 --> 00:10:09,628 Speaker 2: About the Packers being young. 244 00:10:09,868 --> 00:10:11,868 Speaker 3: I put the Texans a little bit in that capacity 245 00:10:11,908 --> 00:10:13,988 Speaker 3: as well, not because of the youth, but because of 246 00:10:14,508 --> 00:10:16,788 Speaker 3: no one thinks that we should even still be here. 247 00:10:16,828 --> 00:10:19,868 Speaker 3: They forgot about us in mid December as they normally 248 00:10:19,948 --> 00:10:22,948 Speaker 3: lived with the Texans. Recently, c J. Stroud looks great. 249 00:10:23,068 --> 00:10:27,108 Speaker 3: Tamiko Ryans is humming on all cylinders. He looks like himself. 250 00:10:27,148 --> 00:10:29,788 Speaker 3: His personality is shining through. Love it for the Texans 251 00:10:29,828 --> 00:10:32,068 Speaker 3: right now. This could be my upset special in Baltimore. 252 00:10:32,108 --> 00:10:33,388 Speaker 3: We'll see are against c J. 253 00:10:33,468 --> 00:10:33,828 Speaker 2: Stroud. 254 00:10:33,948 --> 00:10:36,268 Speaker 3: What do we think the most competitive game though, will 255 00:10:36,308 --> 00:10:36,988 Speaker 3: be this weekend? 256 00:10:37,068 --> 00:10:39,948 Speaker 9: Jason, I think I think obviously Buffalo and can't say 257 00:10:39,988 --> 00:10:42,468 Speaker 9: is going to be one that we're saying sneaky competitive. Well, 258 00:10:42,548 --> 00:10:45,908 Speaker 9: I'm gonna say Tampa Bay and Detroit. Okay, that's a game. 259 00:10:46,108 --> 00:10:48,828 Speaker 9: We've talked about the quarterbacks with Baker Mayfield, Jared got 260 00:10:48,828 --> 00:10:51,308 Speaker 9: the former number one overall picks. I just feel like 261 00:10:51,348 --> 00:10:54,228 Speaker 9: Tampa Bay the way they're playing right now. Defensively, you 262 00:10:54,348 --> 00:10:56,868 Speaker 9: watched them against that Eagle team. Move was obviously struggling, 263 00:10:57,068 --> 00:10:59,508 Speaker 9: but bringing that level of pressure. These teams matched up 264 00:10:59,548 --> 00:11:02,028 Speaker 9: earlier in the season as well, and the Lions had 265 00:11:02,068 --> 00:11:04,188 Speaker 9: their number. I feel like you have two teams that 266 00:11:04,388 --> 00:11:07,308 Speaker 9: fel really good about themselves, and especially that defense in 267 00:11:07,388 --> 00:11:09,588 Speaker 9: Tampa Bay and Jared Goff getting the ball to all 268 00:11:09,588 --> 00:11:11,828 Speaker 9: of his weapons, spreading it out. We're watching from Amar 269 00:11:11,988 --> 00:11:14,948 Speaker 9: Rod to Jamiir Gibbs and Montgomery, so many different guys. 270 00:11:15,188 --> 00:11:17,388 Speaker 9: I think this is a game where Detroit is like 271 00:11:17,428 --> 00:11:19,228 Speaker 9: that great field, good story, and they just seem like 272 00:11:19,268 --> 00:11:21,628 Speaker 9: they're rolling. But I'm excited to see Tampa come to 273 00:11:21,628 --> 00:11:22,628 Speaker 9: town and see what they can bring. 274 00:11:23,028 --> 00:11:26,508 Speaker 5: I think there's a potential for blowouts in all of 275 00:11:26,548 --> 00:11:28,548 Speaker 5: these games. The one game that I look at and 276 00:11:28,588 --> 00:11:30,708 Speaker 5: I'm like, would I want to be competitive? And what 277 00:11:30,868 --> 00:11:33,268 Speaker 5: I want to see go to overtime and potentially come 278 00:11:33,268 --> 00:11:34,428 Speaker 5: down to the final play. 279 00:11:34,268 --> 00:11:37,108 Speaker 2: In Kansas City, Buffalo, it's not such history. 280 00:11:37,508 --> 00:11:39,548 Speaker 5: Such history, whether you talking about the twenty twenty one 281 00:11:39,548 --> 00:11:42,348 Speaker 5: Divisional round for the thirteen seconds game, of course. 282 00:11:42,388 --> 00:11:44,228 Speaker 4: But also the fact that Buffalo's had. 283 00:11:44,188 --> 00:11:46,388 Speaker 5: A lot of success against Kensady in the regular season. 284 00:11:46,428 --> 00:11:48,548 Speaker 5: It's not like we can't beat these guys. No, They've 285 00:11:48,548 --> 00:11:51,028 Speaker 5: gone into the locker room several different times after a 286 00:11:51,068 --> 00:11:53,068 Speaker 5: game against the Chiefs and been like, yeah, we took 287 00:11:53,108 --> 00:11:54,428 Speaker 5: care of business, like we just have to do that 288 00:11:54,468 --> 00:11:57,268 Speaker 5: in January. Well, January's here. I would love this if 289 00:11:57,308 --> 00:11:59,748 Speaker 5: it's Nanton Romo on the call and we're going to 290 00:11:59,788 --> 00:12:02,148 Speaker 5: overtime and I don't know how it ends up, but 291 00:12:02,228 --> 00:12:04,548 Speaker 5: it's coming down to the nine to thirty hours, the 292 00:12:04,588 --> 00:12:07,108 Speaker 5: ten o'clock hour, the ten to fifteen hour, and we're 293 00:12:07,108 --> 00:12:09,548 Speaker 5: all up at ten thirty on Sunday night just buzzing 294 00:12:09,548 --> 00:12:11,748 Speaker 5: because of an overtime game between Chiefs and Bills. 295 00:12:11,748 --> 00:12:12,708 Speaker 6: I want it to be competitive. 296 00:12:12,708 --> 00:12:13,868 Speaker 4: That's my answer for this one. 297 00:12:13,908 --> 00:12:16,188 Speaker 1: It took until twelve minutes into the show for Peter 298 00:12:16,268 --> 00:12:18,108 Speaker 1: to tell us, who's on the call get there this. 299 00:12:18,108 --> 00:12:20,148 Speaker 4: Time of year? That that blows your hair back. I 300 00:12:20,188 --> 00:12:20,948 Speaker 4: really I love it. 301 00:12:20,988 --> 00:12:23,028 Speaker 5: We're down to only the eight Cruise at this point, 302 00:12:23,508 --> 00:12:27,348 Speaker 5: the eight teams, the eighteen Final eight Teams, Final four Cruise, 303 00:12:27,388 --> 00:12:28,068 Speaker 5: bring your best. 304 00:12:28,228 --> 00:12:30,908 Speaker 1: Can you imagine if that game goes to overtime and 305 00:12:30,988 --> 00:12:33,508 Speaker 1: what if the Chiefs end up benefiting from the rule 306 00:12:33,588 --> 00:12:35,228 Speaker 1: change that is brought about, Like. 307 00:12:35,228 --> 00:12:37,868 Speaker 5: That's that would make Bills come down field, go right away, 308 00:12:37,988 --> 00:12:38,548 Speaker 5: right away down. 309 00:12:40,948 --> 00:12:41,828 Speaker 4: I look at the same game. 310 00:12:41,988 --> 00:12:43,908 Speaker 1: I can make blowout cases for all of these, I 311 00:12:43,908 --> 00:12:45,628 Speaker 1: can't make a piece for the Chiefs or the Bills 312 00:12:45,628 --> 00:12:48,468 Speaker 1: blowing the other team out. I'm fascinated to watch the 313 00:12:48,508 --> 00:12:52,628 Speaker 1: first Chiefs offensive drive, the first one. If a boxer 314 00:12:52,668 --> 00:12:53,988 Speaker 1: is in the ring with somebody and they have a 315 00:12:54,028 --> 00:12:55,748 Speaker 1: cutover their eye, you hit the cut. 316 00:12:55,788 --> 00:12:57,428 Speaker 4: That's part of the sport. I want to see what 317 00:12:57,428 --> 00:12:59,428 Speaker 4: the Bills are bringing defensively. 318 00:12:58,988 --> 00:13:03,188 Speaker 1: Like Checko, Pachecko, Pachecko, Edwards, Ailaire Edwards, a Laire run, run, run. 319 00:13:03,228 --> 00:13:05,548 Speaker 1: We know we they lost to Rover, They've lost Millano 320 00:13:05,628 --> 00:13:08,308 Speaker 1: months ago. There's a I think there's a palpable concern 321 00:13:08,428 --> 00:13:12,188 Speaker 1: amongst Biddell's mafia, like how many warm, healthy, able bodies 322 00:13:12,188 --> 00:13:14,268 Speaker 1: can we put in front of Mahomes in that running game? 323 00:13:14,348 --> 00:13:15,588 Speaker 4: And not even so much Mahomes. 324 00:13:15,628 --> 00:13:17,428 Speaker 1: We've seen something in the past month that really, when 325 00:13:17,428 --> 00:13:19,348 Speaker 1: they go through Pacheco, is this is the best version 326 00:13:19,388 --> 00:13:21,868 Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty three Chiefs the first drive. If 327 00:13:21,948 --> 00:13:24,668 Speaker 1: Picchecko's ripping off runs and they're in rhythm and being 328 00:13:24,708 --> 00:13:26,388 Speaker 1: here but here, it could be a long day. I 329 00:13:26,428 --> 00:13:28,428 Speaker 1: want to see what the Bills defense brings early. A 330 00:13:28,468 --> 00:13:30,068 Speaker 1: lot of tone setting stuff in the cold. 331 00:13:29,948 --> 00:13:31,588 Speaker 3: H that's why we play the game though, we can't 332 00:13:31,588 --> 00:13:33,828 Speaker 3: wait to watch them all on full That is divisional weekend. 333 00:13:33,868 --> 00:13:36,068 Speaker 3: We are heading into it Ian rapaport. Things that we 334 00:13:36,148 --> 00:13:39,188 Speaker 3: might need to keep an eye on ahead of these 335 00:13:39,268 --> 00:13:41,708 Speaker 3: four fantastic matchups we have this weekend. 336 00:13:41,988 --> 00:13:45,148 Speaker 10: A couple big injuries, and actually usually injuries are bad news, 337 00:13:45,228 --> 00:13:47,428 Speaker 10: this is actually good news. Remember a couple months ago 338 00:13:47,548 --> 00:13:50,748 Speaker 10: we talked about the horrific injury that Mark Andrews, the 339 00:13:50,908 --> 00:13:54,828 Speaker 10: Ravens Pro Bowl tight end, suffered, crack, fibula, ligament damage, 340 00:13:55,108 --> 00:13:57,948 Speaker 10: needed surgery, all of that potentially done for the season. 341 00:13:58,028 --> 00:14:00,548 Speaker 10: We thought just really depended on how far the Ravens go. 342 00:14:00,748 --> 00:14:04,148 Speaker 10: The Ravens have gone. They are playing Mark Andrews back 343 00:14:04,188 --> 00:14:07,188 Speaker 10: at practice. He has been a full participant the last 344 00:14:07,268 --> 00:14:10,268 Speaker 10: two days. He's still officially listened is questionable and if 345 00:14:10,268 --> 00:14:12,548 Speaker 10: he was going to play in this playoff game for 346 00:14:12,668 --> 00:14:14,788 Speaker 10: the Baltimore Ravens, he would need to be activated. That 347 00:14:14,868 --> 00:14:18,228 Speaker 10: has not yet happened. We will see if that happens today. 348 00:14:18,268 --> 00:14:20,668 Speaker 10: If so, Mark Andrews will be on the field completing 349 00:14:20,708 --> 00:14:23,708 Speaker 10: and unbelievable comeback and one that I think that only 350 00:14:23,748 --> 00:14:26,668 Speaker 10: warms our hearts but gives the Ravens a dual threat 351 00:14:26,708 --> 00:14:29,188 Speaker 10: now at tight end with the emergence of Isaiah likely 352 00:14:29,628 --> 00:14:33,108 Speaker 10: different story for the Buffalo Bills, and gave Davis few receivers. 353 00:14:33,188 --> 00:14:36,148 Speaker 10: A few players really have been better in the playoffs 354 00:14:36,188 --> 00:14:38,308 Speaker 10: than gave Davis. I believe that the playoff record for 355 00:14:38,508 --> 00:14:40,828 Speaker 10: I think sixty five touchdowns in one game. That might 356 00:14:40,868 --> 00:14:43,908 Speaker 10: be a paraphrase, but something like that. Anyway, he has 357 00:14:43,988 --> 00:14:46,148 Speaker 10: not participated in practice yet this. 358 00:14:46,028 --> 00:14:49,188 Speaker 2: Week again deal with a PCL spring. 359 00:14:49,428 --> 00:14:51,428 Speaker 10: If he does not participate today, you would think he 360 00:14:51,468 --> 00:14:53,428 Speaker 10: does not have a chance to play. He's not the 361 00:14:53,508 --> 00:14:57,148 Speaker 10: ruled out yet, but at least not trending the right direction. Meanwhile, 362 00:14:57,148 --> 00:15:00,468 Speaker 10: we also have some coaching news. Bill Belichick, the greatest 363 00:15:00,508 --> 00:15:04,028 Speaker 10: coach of all time, has a second interviews scheduled with 364 00:15:04,108 --> 00:15:06,668 Speaker 10: the Land to Falcons.

I don't think they're 417 00:17:18,588 --> 00:17:21,308 Speaker 5: gonna lose their jobs in situation. Can Belichick work with 418 00:17:21,388 --> 00:17:23,868 Speaker 5: other folks in the front office that have some institutional 419 00:17:23,908 --> 00:17:26,748 Speaker 5: knowledge from the program but also are not from the 420 00:17:26,788 --> 00:17:29,428 Speaker 5: Belichick tree. I'm fascinating to see the dynamic because McKay 421 00:17:29,468 --> 00:17:31,348 Speaker 5: is a lifer in the NFL. Fontano is a hot 422 00:17:31,388 --> 00:17:33,908 Speaker 5: GM hire from the Saints. How does Belichick fit in 423 00:17:33,948 --> 00:17:34,708 Speaker 5: with those guys. 424 00:17:34,788 --> 00:17:36,748 Speaker 9: I'm excited for Kyle's dating game of what it was 425 00:17:36,828 --> 00:17:40,308 Speaker 9: like back in the day. First, Yeah, for Belichick, you 426 00:17:40,348 --> 00:17:42,348 Speaker 9: look at this and we talked about and everybody Florida 427 00:17:42,388 --> 00:17:44,308 Speaker 9: with for the last few days. The possibility of the 428 00:17:44,348 --> 00:17:47,068 Speaker 9: Philadelphia Eagles of Dallas Cowboys and these teams that were 429 00:17:47,108 --> 00:17:49,948 Speaker 9: ready to win right now. This would be very fascinating. 430 00:17:49,948 --> 00:17:53,068 Speaker 9: You have a falconsino has weapons on offense, no quarterback there. 431 00:17:53,108 --> 00:17:55,628 Speaker 9: Who would the offensive coordinator be? Would be Josh mcdaill's. 432 00:17:55,628 --> 00:17:57,708 Speaker 9: There's so many question marks that was still surround the 433 00:17:57,788 --> 00:17:59,028 Speaker 9: situation with Bill being there. 434 00:17:58,988 --> 00:18:01,628 Speaker 1: You have my curiosity. Now you have my attention. The 435 00:18:01,708 --> 00:18:04,508 Speaker 1: NFC South is saw blah blah blah blah. Who is 436 00:18:04,588 --> 00:18:07,148 Speaker 1: the quarterback? Are you doing the thing where we're gonna 437 00:18:07,188 --> 00:18:10,188 Speaker 1: go shopping for Kirk Cousins or Justin Fields or are 438 00:18:10,188 --> 00:18:12,988 Speaker 1: we taking this green rookie out of college and that's 439 00:18:13,028 --> 00:18:15,348 Speaker 1: gonna be the last chapter of Belichick's career. 440 00:18:15,348 --> 00:18:17,628 Speaker 4: That's a huge gambit, if you will. 441 00:18:17,668 --> 00:18:20,588 Speaker 1: So the mystery about this is great Falcons Arthur Blank, Baba, 442 00:18:20,748 --> 00:18:21,788 Speaker 1: who is your quarterback? 443 00:18:21,948 --> 00:18:23,388 Speaker 4: You need one? Are you gonna go seven to ten? 444 00:18:23,588 --> 00:18:26,588 Speaker 3: Speaking of mystery, some speculate one is happening in Philadelphia. 445 00:18:26,708 --> 00:18:29,508 Speaker 3: Nick Sirianni is said to meet with Eagles owner Jeffrey Loriie, 446 00:18:29,628 --> 00:18:33,188 Speaker 3: we can imagine perhaps what conversations of that nature would 447 00:18:33,188 --> 00:18:34,348 Speaker 3: be like behind closed doors. 448 00:18:34,428 --> 00:18:35,788 Speaker 6: Jason, what do you make of this situation? 449 00:18:36,268 --> 00:18:38,028 Speaker 9: I just I want like the scene set of how 450 00:18:38,068 --> 00:18:40,068 Speaker 9: they walk in, Like who's in there? Is it just Syrin? 451 00:18:40,188 --> 00:18:42,348 Speaker 9: Is it just Laurie? Is it Howry Rolsman. I want 452 00:18:42,348 --> 00:18:44,668 Speaker 9: to know what that exact scene is like when he 453 00:18:44,708 --> 00:18:46,868 Speaker 9: walks in. And I think the obvious question is who 454 00:18:46,908 --> 00:18:49,228 Speaker 9: to coordinators it keeping Brian Johnson on the offensive side 455 00:18:49,228 --> 00:18:52,308 Speaker 9: of the ball after that collapse defensively, obviously Sean Decide 456 00:18:52,428 --> 00:18:55,148 Speaker 9: was moved to a different part in the organization. In 457 00:18:55,188 --> 00:18:57,868 Speaker 9: the defense, Matt Patricia took over. I can't imagine they're 458 00:18:57,868 --> 00:19:00,788 Speaker 9: deciding to run that back. But when Sirianni walks in, 459 00:19:00,868 --> 00:19:03,028 Speaker 9: like what is the reasoning? I'm like, all right, hey, Jeffrey, 460 00:19:03,068 --> 00:19:05,268 Speaker 9: this this is why we collapse. This is what happened. 461 00:19:05,268 --> 00:19:07,588 Speaker 9: This is where the team was fascinated to know what 462 00:19:07,668 --> 00:19:08,348 Speaker 9: those responses. 463 00:19:08,388 --> 00:19:10,668 Speaker 1: I just picture the door closes and it's one of 464 00:19:10,708 --> 00:19:13,228 Speaker 1: those hold all my calls, and the second the door closes, 465 00:19:13,228 --> 00:19:15,428 Speaker 1: he looks, what the bleep happened? 466 00:19:15,628 --> 00:19:15,948 Speaker 4: Tell me? 467 00:19:15,988 --> 00:19:18,348 Speaker 1: And I wish I could be there because Sirianni's doing 468 00:19:18,348 --> 00:19:20,028 Speaker 1: the media thing and me, me, me, me me, Syrian 469 00:19:20,148 --> 00:19:22,548 Speaker 1: is actually gonna point fingers and this player sucks, this 470 00:19:22,628 --> 00:19:23,228 Speaker 1: coach sucks. 471 00:19:23,348 --> 00:19:24,028 Speaker 7: Maybe I suck. 472 00:19:24,108 --> 00:19:25,788 Speaker 1: I want the answers so bad, we're not going to 473 00:19:25,828 --> 00:19:27,508 Speaker 1: get him. Peter, but like, there has to be some 474 00:19:27,628 --> 00:19:29,508 Speaker 1: change that comes about this, and that meeting has to 475 00:19:29,548 --> 00:19:30,028 Speaker 1: be candid. 476 00:19:30,188 --> 00:19:33,668 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Lori huh, his son Julian Dooy Roseman, and then 477 00:19:33,668 --> 00:19:38,188 Speaker 2: Brad mcfeeperson running around, and Miles Tiller is in the 478 00:19:38,228 --> 00:19:38,828 Speaker 2: other tel. 479 00:19:40,708 --> 00:19:43,668 Speaker 5: Nig Dom is looking above no in all seriousness, Doug 480 00:19:43,708 --> 00:19:45,908 Speaker 5: Peterson had a similar meeting. I don't think Doug Peterson 481 00:19:45,988 --> 00:19:47,908 Speaker 5: was willing to get rid of some of his assistants 482 00:19:48,108 --> 00:19:50,228 Speaker 5: and that was a big deal. And Doug Peason, I'm 483 00:19:50,268 --> 00:19:51,748 Speaker 5: will to my guys and they said, well, and Doug, 484 00:19:51,788 --> 00:19:52,828 Speaker 5: you can take your guys'. 485 00:19:52,628 --> 00:19:53,268 Speaker 4: Super Bowl champ. 486 00:19:53,508 --> 00:19:54,708 Speaker 6: I don't know what SIRIANTTI does. 487 00:19:54,708 --> 00:19:56,508 Speaker 5: But I can't imagine he's able to go in there 488 00:19:56,508 --> 00:19:58,868 Speaker 5: and say, you know, Patricia and Brian Johnson are my 489 00:19:58,908 --> 00:20:01,068 Speaker 5: guys through it, Like I'm considering, he's got to have 490 00:20:01,148 --> 00:20:03,388 Speaker 5: some other ideas outside the box, and maybe the guys 491 00:20:03,388 --> 00:20:04,148 Speaker 5: that he brought. 492 00:20:03,908 --> 00:20:04,388 Speaker 7: In with him. 493 00:20:04,428 --> 00:20:07,188 Speaker 3: Speaking of loyalty, Ben Johnson hung around Detroit last season. 494 00:20:07,188 --> 00:20:09,948 Speaker 3: The lines offensive coordinator now once again has been requested 495 00:20:09,948 --> 00:20:15,508 Speaker 3: to be interviewed by six NFL teams Panthers, Commanders, Charger, Seahawks, Falcons, Titans.

Also players like Lefonte David Andeline Winfield, and 572 00:23:08,148 --> 00:23:10,308 Speaker 12: I could just keep naming and keep going on. A 573 00:23:10,348 --> 00:23:12,668 Speaker 12: lot of those guys kind of get me to rope, 574 00:23:13,148 --> 00:23:15,628 Speaker 12: teach me everything. As far as Bevita have been in 575 00:23:15,628 --> 00:23:17,708 Speaker 12: the same room as me, he just kind of always 576 00:23:18,068 --> 00:23:20,228 Speaker 12: giving me a heads up on what's coming next, what 577 00:23:20,348 --> 00:23:23,548 Speaker 12: can I expect from office of lineman, what to do is. 578 00:23:23,548 --> 00:23:24,668 Speaker 7: They for that? 579 00:23:24,908 --> 00:23:27,308 Speaker 12: So he just always helping me out, making me sharpen 580 00:23:27,348 --> 00:23:29,108 Speaker 12: my game, and you sound like a veteran. 581 00:23:29,148 --> 00:23:31,308 Speaker 3: You just know you rifle off a couple other names 582 00:23:31,348 --> 00:23:33,948 Speaker 3: defensively and then you know you're given the right guy's credit. 583 00:23:34,068 --> 00:23:36,468 Speaker 3: But you're still young. Your head coach Todd Bowles referred 584 00:23:36,468 --> 00:23:38,908 Speaker 3: to the young guys on this team out there as puppies, 585 00:23:38,948 --> 00:23:42,148 Speaker 3: which is perfect. Your young, fresh bodied, full of energy 586 00:23:42,148 --> 00:23:43,948 Speaker 3: and similar to a puppy who likes to chew the 587 00:23:44,028 --> 00:23:46,068 Speaker 3: leg of a couch, you probably want to chew the 588 00:23:46,108 --> 00:23:48,108 Speaker 3: leg of a quarterback at times. Some might say that 589 00:23:48,148 --> 00:23:50,988 Speaker 3: youth is a disadvantage in the playoffs, but what do you. 590 00:23:50,908 --> 00:23:51,708 Speaker 9: Have to say about that? 591 00:23:52,228 --> 00:23:55,428 Speaker 12: I definitely agree with that thanks to our GM man, 592 00:23:55,468 --> 00:23:58,028 Speaker 12: he bring in a lot of great young rookie class 593 00:23:58,268 --> 00:24:01,668 Speaker 12: and we have been able to just produce and help 594 00:24:01,708 --> 00:24:03,628 Speaker 12: out on this team big time. 595 00:24:03,668 --> 00:24:03,828 Speaker 7: Man. 596 00:24:03,868 --> 00:24:05,548 Speaker 12: So I want to give a shout out to our 597 00:24:05,588 --> 00:24:08,588 Speaker 12: GM Jason Light.

We were talking 688 00:27:25,588 --> 00:27:27,268 Speaker 9: to him before we got on about him and Ya 689 00:27:27,348 --> 00:27:30,228 Speaker 9: Yaddyabi and Sax celebrations on that. When you come in 690 00:27:30,268 --> 00:27:32,588 Speaker 9: with a group of rookies like you, guys band together 691 00:27:32,628 --> 00:27:35,508 Speaker 9: because you're forced to. There's so many meetings outside of that. 692 00:27:35,588 --> 00:27:37,708 Speaker 9: The vents don't have to do that the rookies have 693 00:27:37,748 --> 00:27:39,628 Speaker 9: to do. You're picking up the weight room, cleaning up 694 00:27:39,668 --> 00:27:43,308 Speaker 9: that thing, doing so many different items together that you 695 00:27:43,388 --> 00:27:45,188 Speaker 9: build a bond. And for those two guys to be 696 00:27:45,348 --> 00:27:46,988 Speaker 9: in the same position we're going to be playing in 697 00:27:46,988 --> 00:27:50,108 Speaker 9: postseason football and both playing really well, it's exciting as well. 698 00:27:50,188 --> 00:27:51,348 Speaker 9: I gotta set the stage a little bit. 699 00:27:51,388 --> 00:27:54,228 Speaker 5: Remember the Buccaneers were red hot to start the season. 700 00:27:54,308 --> 00:27:57,068 Speaker 5: Baker goes on college game day. Everyone's loving them U. 701 00:27:57,588 --> 00:28:00,428 Speaker 5: They break out the creamsicle jerseys. After the bye week 702 00:28:00,508 --> 00:28:03,188 Speaker 5: and everyone's excited about the Bucks, and the Lions ran 703 00:28:03,308 --> 00:28:06,708 Speaker 5: right through them and them up. So I think that 704 00:28:06,828 --> 00:28:09,428 Speaker 5: game it sits in the Buccaneers bellies a little bit. 705 00:28:09,468 --> 00:28:12,068 Speaker 5: Maybe they got a little above their ski. Here we are, 706 00:28:12,068 --> 00:28:13,548 Speaker 5: we get a chance to play again in their building. 707 00:28:13,628 --> 00:28:16,508 Speaker 1: Now tell you what, I hesitated for a long time 708 00:28:16,628 --> 00:28:19,268 Speaker 1: picking this game. This is my longest hesitation I had 709 00:28:19,268 --> 00:28:20,828 Speaker 1: of the four games. The other one ding Ding ding 710 00:28:20,868 --> 00:28:23,548 Speaker 1: ding Ding. Lions Bucks I think is going to be very, 711 00:28:23,668 --> 00:28:25,068 Speaker 1: very very close. The Bucks are no joke. 712 00:28:25,188 --> 00:28:26,908 Speaker 3: And that's very telling for you because you were the 713 00:28:26,908 --> 00:28:28,588 Speaker 3: one who had been raw raw lyons, I mean for 714 00:28:28,588 --> 00:28:30,148 Speaker 3: a long time, and you had your interview with Dan 715 00:28:30,188 --> 00:28:32,228 Speaker 3: Campbell recently, so you've been drinking the kool aid. 716 00:28:32,788 --> 00:28:34,228 Speaker 6: Here we go. The Bucks are good. Coming up. 717 00:28:34,508 --> 00:28:38,188 Speaker 3: Eight quarterbacks left in the postseason, which one is the 718 00:28:38,228 --> 00:28:51,828 Speaker 3: odd man out? Good morning, massive slate of games coming 719 00:28:51,868 --> 00:28:54,148 Speaker 3: your way for the divisional weekend present of Bite into 720 00:28:54,148 --> 00:28:56,108 Speaker 3: a Turbo Attack. Let's keep it on the NFC side 721 00:28:56,108 --> 00:28:59,148 Speaker 3: of things right now, because it's time for GMFB to 722 00:28:59,268 --> 00:29:00,628 Speaker 3: deliver our picks. 723 00:29:00,868 --> 00:29:01,868 Speaker 6: We're going to start off. 724 00:29:01,708 --> 00:29:04,388 Speaker 3: With the seven seeded Packers taking on the number one 725 00:29:04,548 --> 00:29:06,508 Speaker 3: forty nine Ers. Gason, You've said it time and time again. 726 00:29:06,748 --> 00:29:08,748 Speaker 3: We haven't seen the forty nine ers in a minute. 727 00:29:08,828 --> 00:29:11,388 Speaker 3: They probably had some issues, injuries whatever to work through. 728 00:29:11,468 --> 00:29:14,348 Speaker 3: So Jason, knowing that, knowing what we saw last weekn 729 00:29:14,388 --> 00:29:15,588 Speaker 3: from Green Bay, where do you go? 730 00:29:15,948 --> 00:29:17,708 Speaker 9: You just said you talked a lot about Brock Purdy, 731 00:29:17,748 --> 00:29:20,188 Speaker 9: the only quarterback left that's not a first round draft pick, 732 00:29:20,388 --> 00:29:22,508 Speaker 9: and you looked at the Packers last week and they 733 00:29:22,588 --> 00:29:23,508 Speaker 9: looked awesome. 734 00:29:23,548 --> 00:29:24,388 Speaker 6: And we've talked about it. 735 00:29:24,388 --> 00:29:27,268 Speaker 9: There's no quarterback that has played better throughout this latter 736 00:29:27,268 --> 00:29:29,268 Speaker 9: part of the season than Jordan Love. 737 00:29:29,348 --> 00:29:30,188 Speaker 6: His numbers prove it. 738 00:29:30,268 --> 00:29:32,348 Speaker 9: When you turn the film all when you watch the game, 739 00:29:32,428 --> 00:29:34,228 Speaker 9: you can see it. You can see the juice that 740 00:29:34,348 --> 00:29:36,388 Speaker 9: surrounds their team, and a lot of it starts with 741 00:29:36,508 --> 00:29:39,108 Speaker 9: him getting the ball out to his young receivers. Their 742 00:29:39,148 --> 00:29:41,428 Speaker 9: defense played well, they were up twenty seven to zero 743 00:29:41,628 --> 00:29:42,388 Speaker 9: in that game. 744 00:29:43,188 --> 00:29:44,548 Speaker 6: But I'm rolling with the forty nine ers. 745 00:29:44,588 --> 00:29:46,188 Speaker 9: I think the forty nine ers are just going to 746 00:29:46,228 --> 00:29:48,668 Speaker 9: be too much for the Green Bay Packers. They had 747 00:29:48,668 --> 00:29:50,508 Speaker 9: that time off that you just spoke about, the last 748 00:29:50,548 --> 00:29:53,468 Speaker 9: time we saw Christian McCaffrey, Remember he was stretching out 749 00:29:53,628 --> 00:29:56,188 Speaker 9: that calf on the sideline. Then you get these multiple 750 00:29:56,188 --> 00:29:58,228 Speaker 9: weeks to get healthy. I think they're going to come in, 751 00:29:58,268 --> 00:30:00,148 Speaker 9: They're gonna be refreshed. We're going to see the best 752 00:30:00,188 --> 00:30:02,108 Speaker 9: version of Rock Purty getting the ball out to all 753 00:30:02,108 --> 00:30:04,388 Speaker 9: of his weapons. Think as well as this Packers team 754 00:30:04,588 --> 00:30:06,748 Speaker 9: playing the forty nine is just gonna be too much 755 00:30:06,788 --> 00:30:08,748 Speaker 9: for them to handle. And I haven't even spoken about 756 00:30:08,748 --> 00:30:09,708 Speaker 9: the forty nine's defense. 757 00:30:10,548 --> 00:30:13,428 Speaker 5: I don't think there is a young offensive unit I 758 00:30:13,508 --> 00:30:16,068 Speaker 5: like more than this Green Bay Packers offensive unit. 759 00:30:16,148 --> 00:30:17,988 Speaker 2: I went through the list earlier this week. 760 00:30:18,428 --> 00:30:21,228 Speaker 5: We know about Aaron Jones, we know about AJ Dillon, 761 00:30:21,308 --> 00:30:24,708 Speaker 5: you know about familiar names like Jordan Love and some others. 762 00:30:24,748 --> 00:30:28,868 Speaker 5: But when you start talking about Dontavian Wicks, a fifth 763 00:30:28,948 --> 00:30:32,148 Speaker 5: round pick out of Virginia who was the single season 764 00:30:32,228 --> 00:30:34,908 Speaker 5: record holder for receiving yards in a season at Virginia, 765 00:30:34,988 --> 00:30:37,548 Speaker 5: beating Herman Moore's record, coming in as a first year 766 00:30:37,588 --> 00:30:40,508 Speaker 5: player and making plays, You've got my attention. Jaden Reid 767 00:30:40,788 --> 00:30:44,348 Speaker 5: come out of Michigan State via Central Michigan before that then, 768 00:30:44,388 --> 00:30:46,388 Speaker 5: of course, or I'm sorry, it might have been Western 769 00:30:46,388 --> 00:30:47,788 Speaker 5: Michigan or I don't even know. 770 00:30:47,828 --> 00:30:49,108 Speaker 2: This is why I love Jayden. 771 00:30:48,948 --> 00:30:51,028 Speaker 5: Reid's story, and then you go through the list and 772 00:30:51,028 --> 00:30:53,948 Speaker 5: it's one by one, Emmanuel Wilson, Tucker Kraft, the Luke 773 00:30:54,028 --> 00:30:57,868 Speaker 5: Musgrave story, Romeo Dobbs, Christian Watson, all of these guys, 774 00:30:58,348 --> 00:30:59,628 Speaker 5: and they all have no ego. 775 00:31:00,028 --> 00:31:00,988 Speaker 2: They don't know any better. 776 00:31:01,348 --> 00:31:03,868 Speaker 5: Jayden Reid didn't have a catch last week against the 777 00:31:03,988 --> 00:31:06,468 Speaker 5: Dallas Cowboys. This week against the forty nine Ers, he 778 00:31:06,508 --> 00:31:07,828 Speaker 5: could be the focus of the game plan. 779 00:31:08,388 --> 00:31:09,508 Speaker 2: I love what they've. 780 00:31:09,308 --> 00:31:12,828 Speaker 1: Got, but but where are you going here? 781 00:31:13,708 --> 00:31:18,428 Speaker 5: Kyle Shanahan's I've got Christian McCaffrey, Kyle Shanahan's got Kyle Yustchik, 782 00:31:18,508 --> 00:31:22,068 Speaker 5: Kyle Shanahan's got George Kittle, Kyle Shanahan's got Brendan Ayuk, 783 00:31:22,188 --> 00:31:26,228 Speaker 5: Kyle Shanahan's got Deebo Samuel. Kyle Shanahan's got three weeks 784 00:31:26,268 --> 00:31:29,308 Speaker 5: to prepare and build an offensive game plan for a 785 00:31:29,348 --> 00:31:31,868 Speaker 5: wild card matchup that didn't have to happen. It is 786 00:31:31,908 --> 00:31:34,388 Speaker 5: actually a divisional round matchup, giving him all of this 787 00:31:34,548 --> 00:31:38,228 Speaker 5: time to sit in the lab and focus on a 788 00:31:38,348 --> 00:31:41,508 Speaker 5: coach that he has worked with many a year's and 789 00:31:41,588 --> 00:31:44,508 Speaker 5: many times before, and that's Matt Lafleur and what they've 790 00:31:44,508 --> 00:31:46,988 Speaker 5: got going on, and Joe Barry's defense, which Kyle Shanahan 791 00:31:47,068 --> 00:31:49,708 Speaker 5: has seen a million times in his life, dating back 792 00:31:49,828 --> 00:31:53,308 Speaker 5: to when those guys overlapped in Tampa and Washington wherever else. 793 00:31:53,388 --> 00:31:57,028 Speaker 5: I just think this Packers team, so fun, so young, 794 00:31:57,228 --> 00:31:58,548 Speaker 5: has such a bright future. 795 00:31:58,788 --> 00:32:00,988 Speaker 2: This was not the hand that they wanted to be dealt. 796 00:32:01,188 --> 00:32:03,148 Speaker 5: I think Kyle Shanahan had a ton of time and 797 00:32:03,188 --> 00:32:05,588 Speaker 5: that offense healthy and redt is just too much. And 798 00:32:05,628 --> 00:32:07,748 Speaker 5: I think they are going to put on a show 799 00:32:07,988 --> 00:32:10,548 Speaker 5: on Saturday night on national television. 800 00:32:10,548 --> 00:32:11,948 Speaker 6: I've got the forty nine ers as well. 801 00:32:12,548 --> 00:32:15,068 Speaker 1: When you start listing all those young players in the Packers, 802 00:32:15,108 --> 00:32:17,308 Speaker 1: and we spent a lot of time talking about the bow. 803 00:32:17,108 --> 00:32:18,628 Speaker 4: Mountains of the world and those guys. 804 00:32:19,068 --> 00:32:23,428 Speaker 1: When you list the names, I hear Ali Farukmanesh, Bryce Drew, 805 00:32:23,988 --> 00:32:27,468 Speaker 1: Kevin Pittsnaggle, I hear these march madness darlings. 806 00:32:27,508 --> 00:32:28,468 Speaker 4: With these people, the. 807 00:32:28,468 --> 00:32:31,748 Speaker 1: Wichita State Shockers like do come out of nowhere, and 808 00:32:31,948 --> 00:32:33,668 Speaker 1: they have all the makings of that, and they have 809 00:32:33,788 --> 00:32:35,988 Speaker 1: a really confident, charismatic head coach. 810 00:32:36,308 --> 00:32:38,228 Speaker 4: And I feel like last week it was like, well 811 00:32:38,348 --> 00:32:39,468 Speaker 4: my bracket is busted. 812 00:32:39,508 --> 00:32:41,508 Speaker 1: The Packers win there goes to tear it up, tear 813 00:32:41,508 --> 00:32:44,228 Speaker 1: it up, tear it up. Those teams usually end up 814 00:32:44,308 --> 00:32:48,828 Speaker 1: running into like Kentucky or Michigan States or Kansas or 815 00:32:48,908 --> 00:32:51,508 Speaker 1: just one of those factories, and it doesn't tear to 816 00:32:51,548 --> 00:32:53,788 Speaker 1: typically go well. I think the Packers are running into 817 00:32:53,828 --> 00:32:56,428 Speaker 1: one of the factories this weekend. I love what they've done. 818 00:32:56,548 --> 00:32:58,708 Speaker 1: I love the future. Peter, you said it last week. 819 00:32:58,748 --> 00:33:00,388 Speaker 1: I think feels like they're a year away. 820 00:33:00,508 --> 00:33:00,628 Speaker 3: Now. 821 00:33:00,668 --> 00:33:02,508 Speaker 1: You were wrong about the wild card round. I will 822 00:33:02,508 --> 00:33:04,108 Speaker 1: double down on that. Now it feels like they're a 823 00:33:04,148 --> 00:33:05,948 Speaker 1: year away. And I think that the Lions and the 824 00:33:05,948 --> 00:33:07,908 Speaker 1: Packers are going to do battle for years to come 825 00:33:08,028 --> 00:33:10,268 Speaker 1: over in that NFC North. But the one seeds are 826 00:33:10,308 --> 00:33:12,068 Speaker 1: the one seeds. This is Duke, this is Kansas, this 827 00:33:12,108 --> 00:33:13,468 Speaker 1: is Michigan State, this is Kentucky. 828 00:33:13,468 --> 00:33:15,668 Speaker 4: I like the Niners. I like the Niners by thirteen points. 829 00:33:16,148 --> 00:33:17,748 Speaker 6: Oh, you always like to stick the landing on. 830 00:33:17,748 --> 00:33:20,308 Speaker 4: The points you put yourself out even further further on 831 00:33:20,348 --> 00:33:21,548 Speaker 4: the end of the diving board. 832 00:33:21,668 --> 00:33:24,548 Speaker 3: The Packers have had a great season. Their team is fun. 833 00:33:24,748 --> 00:33:27,988 Speaker 3: They're coaches figuring out this group with this set of players, 834 00:33:27,988 --> 00:33:30,548 Speaker 3: and that's great. We feel some things about destiny. Maybe 835 00:33:30,548 --> 00:33:32,468 Speaker 3: on the AFC side of things, that the Bills might 836 00:33:32,508 --> 00:33:35,268 Speaker 3: deserve their shine. Whatever the Packers, I hear you, is 837 00:33:35,348 --> 00:33:37,188 Speaker 3: just not this year. It's it's the forty nine ers 838 00:33:37,188 --> 00:33:38,788 Speaker 3: for me. It's been the forty nine ers for me. 839 00:33:38,828 --> 00:33:40,988 Speaker 3: They are my Super Bowl pick from August. They are 840 00:33:40,988 --> 00:33:42,308 Speaker 3: to be in it, they are to win it. If 841 00:33:42,348 --> 00:33:43,828 Speaker 3: you ask me so, I too go with the San 842 00:33:43,868 --> 00:33:46,348 Speaker 3: Francisco forty nine ers and that defense. You could also 843 00:33:46,428 --> 00:33:48,708 Speaker 3: list off and have just an impressive resume if you 844 00:33:48,788 --> 00:33:50,748 Speaker 3: just go name after name after name of famam and 845 00:33:50,788 --> 00:33:52,708 Speaker 3: this defense. I would look out if I was the Packers. 846 00:33:52,748 --> 00:33:52,908 Speaker 1: Now. 847 00:33:52,948 --> 00:33:56,188 Speaker 3: How Fortunately, a quick sidebar to this that the Packers 848 00:33:56,268 --> 00:34:00,108 Speaker 3: social media team called GMFB out last weekend when we 849 00:34:00,148 --> 00:34:02,628 Speaker 3: went stars across the bottom. So I'll say it here, 850 00:34:02,748 --> 00:34:04,468 Speaker 3: the four forty nine ers logos on the bottom of 851 00:34:04,508 --> 00:34:06,188 Speaker 3: the screen makes me uncomfortable because. 852 00:34:05,948 --> 00:34:08,028 Speaker 6: That kind of got me some juice back. 853 00:34:07,948 --> 00:34:08,108 Speaker 12: You know. 854 00:34:08,668 --> 00:34:10,268 Speaker 6: Yeah, Packers went viral. 855 00:34:10,348 --> 00:34:12,668 Speaker 3: Guys, congratulations right there across the bottom. 856 00:34:12,708 --> 00:34:13,468 Speaker 6: All right, let's head to. 857 00:34:13,708 --> 00:34:15,348 Speaker 4: The Niners social media team picks us up? 858 00:34:15,428 --> 00:34:16,828 Speaker 6: Yeah maybe yeah. 859 00:34:16,988 --> 00:34:18,668 Speaker 4: Get the game getting there. 860 00:34:19,028 --> 00:34:20,988 Speaker 5: Cowboys were pretty quiet after we paid me those picks. 861 00:34:21,028 --> 00:34:23,068 Speaker 6: I should be like, no, but those aren't. Yeah, they 862 00:34:23,068 --> 00:34:23,868 Speaker 6: had our backs. 863 00:34:23,948 --> 00:34:26,948 Speaker 3: Peter, Let's go to Detroit where the three seed Lions 864 00:34:26,988 --> 00:34:29,988 Speaker 3: are hosting the four seed Buccaneers Pacon. How much time 865 00:34:30,028 --> 00:34:31,188 Speaker 3: did you spend on this game? 866 00:34:31,308 --> 00:34:32,308 Speaker 6: This one was tough. 867 00:34:32,348 --> 00:34:34,108 Speaker 9: And you know, last week we were going over the 868 00:34:34,148 --> 00:34:36,148 Speaker 9: Buccaneers in the Eagles game and I said that the 869 00:34:36,148 --> 00:34:38,428 Speaker 9: Buccaneers is going to win that game by fourteen points, 870 00:34:38,468 --> 00:34:41,068 Speaker 9: and I felt confident in that pick. And last night 871 00:34:41,068 --> 00:34:42,548 Speaker 9: I sat down with my son and we were. 872 00:34:42,388 --> 00:34:43,548 Speaker 6: Going through all the games. 873 00:34:43,588 --> 00:34:45,188 Speaker 9: We were going through our picks, and this is the 874 00:34:45,188 --> 00:34:47,828 Speaker 9: only game that we didn't see eye to eye. This 875 00:34:47,908 --> 00:34:49,908 Speaker 9: is such a fun matchup for all the reasons that 876 00:34:49,948 --> 00:34:51,748 Speaker 9: we've talked about all week long. 877 00:34:51,788 --> 00:34:53,308 Speaker 6: We've talked about the two quarterbacks. 878 00:34:53,708 --> 00:34:56,588 Speaker 9: I've talked so much on this show about Antoine Winfield 879 00:34:56,668 --> 00:34:58,668 Speaker 9: Junior in the way that he's playing. You saw that 880 00:34:58,748 --> 00:35:01,748 Speaker 9: Tampa Bay secondary shut down the Eagles last week. We 881 00:35:01,828 --> 00:35:03,668 Speaker 9: watched the Lions in the first half give up a 882 00:35:03,668 --> 00:35:05,788 Speaker 9: ton of yards to the Rams, but then kind of 883 00:35:05,828 --> 00:35:08,788 Speaker 9: dialed it in later on to finish out that game strong. 884 00:35:09,148 --> 00:35:11,228 Speaker 9: Both quarterbacks in this game, I feel like can get 885 00:35:11,228 --> 00:35:13,108 Speaker 9: the ball outside and can make plays. 886 00:35:13,308 --> 00:35:14,668 Speaker 6: Just feel like the Detroit Lions. 887 00:35:14,708 --> 00:35:17,068 Speaker 9: They have so much I look at them as say, wow, 888 00:35:17,188 --> 00:35:19,748 Speaker 9: look at Jamior Gibbs. I look at Montgomery in the 889 00:35:19,788 --> 00:35:22,148 Speaker 9: backfield and Jameson Williams when he has a big play 890 00:35:22,188 --> 00:35:24,468 Speaker 9: deep down the field. They have so much going from 891 00:35:24,508 --> 00:35:26,188 Speaker 9: them on the offensive side of the ball. And I 892 00:35:26,228 --> 00:35:28,828 Speaker 9: think Jared Goff, I think he steps up. There's such 893 00:35:28,908 --> 00:35:31,468 Speaker 9: an emotional win last week. I think the challenge for 894 00:35:31,508 --> 00:35:33,028 Speaker 9: them was going to be throughout the course of this 895 00:35:33,108 --> 00:35:35,548 Speaker 9: week was moving on and getting past I think they'll 896 00:35:35,548 --> 00:35:35,908 Speaker 9: do that. 897 00:35:36,108 --> 00:35:37,508 Speaker 6: I think they're gonna show up. I think they're gonna 898 00:35:37,508 --> 00:35:38,028 Speaker 6: be ready to play. 899 00:35:38,028 --> 00:35:39,908 Speaker 9: I think there's going to be a nail bier I said, 900 00:35:39,948 --> 00:35:42,348 Speaker 9: I think this is the most competitive game of the weekend. 901 00:35:42,548 --> 00:35:44,388 Speaker 6: I have the Lions just squealing it out. 902 00:35:44,708 --> 00:35:46,828 Speaker 2: Well, give me a score. What do you think I'll say? 903 00:35:47,188 --> 00:35:49,988 Speaker 9: Score wise, I'll go twenty eight to twenty five. 904 00:35:50,068 --> 00:35:53,508 Speaker 4: That's an amazing, great game that Sam sign up for that. 905 00:35:53,828 --> 00:35:57,788 Speaker 5: I think there's a misperception out there about the Tampa 906 00:35:57,828 --> 00:36:00,028 Speaker 5: Bay Buccaneers. There's a lot of talk of them being 907 00:36:00,028 --> 00:36:03,868 Speaker 5: like this young, upstart team that's like this wild story 908 00:36:03,868 --> 00:36:05,668 Speaker 5: that they're getting to where they are in the final eight. 909 00:36:05,748 --> 00:36:08,108 Speaker 5: And yet you look at this roster and yes there's 910 00:36:08,268 --> 00:36:11,908 Speaker 5: Callajah Cantci a rookie, and yah Yadyabi and Trey Palmer 911 00:36:11,988 --> 00:36:15,148 Speaker 5: and these guys who you might not be, Lavonte David, 912 00:36:15,428 --> 00:36:19,308 Speaker 5: Devin White, vite Veya, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin. This is 913 00:36:19,348 --> 00:36:21,228 Speaker 5: the heart and soul of a Super Bowl team that 914 00:36:21,308 --> 00:36:23,868 Speaker 5: has hoisted Lombardes and done a boat parade. So the 915 00:36:23,948 --> 00:36:26,788 Speaker 5: thought that they're gonna go into Detroit and suddenly be 916 00:36:27,468 --> 00:36:30,868 Speaker 5: just just too much. There's too much glass, glamour and 917 00:36:30,908 --> 00:36:33,348 Speaker 5: oh my god, the lights are too bright. 918 00:36:33,348 --> 00:36:34,988 Speaker 2: We're gonna collapse because loud. 919 00:36:35,108 --> 00:36:35,828 Speaker 4: It's loud. 920 00:36:36,628 --> 00:36:39,068 Speaker 5: This is a team that went on the road into 921 00:36:39,188 --> 00:36:42,948 Speaker 5: lambeau Field and beat Aaron Rodgers and most of those 922 00:36:42,988 --> 00:36:47,628 Speaker 5: defensive guys Winfield and Jamel Dean and. 923 00:36:47,588 --> 00:36:50,428 Speaker 2: Our guy Carlton, they all were on the field that day. 924 00:36:50,508 --> 00:36:53,068 Speaker 4: Peter, Lions are very excited. This Lions thing is a 925 00:36:53,068 --> 00:36:53,988 Speaker 4: great story. 926 00:36:54,348 --> 00:36:57,068 Speaker 5: But don't tell me that Tampa Bay is some wide 927 00:36:57,068 --> 00:36:59,108 Speaker 5: eyed team that's in the bright lights. 928 00:36:59,468 --> 00:37:01,748 Speaker 6: Here it goes is there, But there is a story 929 00:37:01,748 --> 00:37:05,308 Speaker 6: though in Detroit. I bought it. 930 00:37:05,468 --> 00:37:07,788 Speaker 5: It's like, and you know the first time they played, 931 00:37:07,788 --> 00:37:10,628 Speaker 5: Detroit took care of the Creamsicle Buccaneers in Tampa and 932 00:37:10,788 --> 00:37:12,668 Speaker 5: kind of was like, all right, Tampa was riding high 933 00:37:12,708 --> 00:37:14,988 Speaker 5: and Detroit gave him a reality check. And that was 934 00:37:15,028 --> 00:37:17,468 Speaker 5: without Jamier Gibbs on the field. That was without CJ. 935 00:37:17,588 --> 00:37:20,348 Speaker 5: Gardner Johnson, that was without Brian Bridge, that was without 936 00:37:20,428 --> 00:37:23,428 Speaker 5: Jonah Jackson. It was without so many players. And now 937 00:37:23,468 --> 00:37:26,748 Speaker 5: Detroit comes in at home with that crowd, and if 938 00:37:26,748 --> 00:37:29,468 Speaker 5: you thought it was cool seeing Big Sean and Eminem 939 00:37:29,628 --> 00:37:31,828 Speaker 5: and Calvin Johnson, they'll all be out there again. 940 00:37:31,908 --> 00:37:33,068 Speaker 2: This has become an event. 941 00:37:33,228 --> 00:37:35,108 Speaker 5: I have some friends in my life who are Lions 942 00:37:35,108 --> 00:37:36,388 Speaker 5: fans who live out on the West Coast. 943 00:37:36,388 --> 00:37:37,388 Speaker 2: They're flying in for it. 944 00:37:37,468 --> 00:37:39,868 Speaker 5: I've got friends who live in the South, They're flying 945 00:37:39,908 --> 00:37:43,548 Speaker 5: in for it. This feels like the biggest Lions football 946 00:37:43,588 --> 00:37:47,308 Speaker 5: game in maybe fifty years, because I think there's real 947 00:37:47,348 --> 00:37:49,588 Speaker 5: hope that this team can go even the further distance 948 00:37:49,628 --> 00:37:50,308 Speaker 5: and go even longer. 949 00:37:50,348 --> 00:37:52,468 Speaker 2: I don't think the dream ends here. I love this game. 950 00:37:52,668 --> 00:37:54,588 Speaker 2: I cannot wait for it. I think it's close too. 951 00:37:54,708 --> 00:37:58,468 Speaker 2: I'm saying thirty one twenty three. I'm gonna go Detroit 952 00:37:58,548 --> 00:37:59,468 Speaker 2: Lyons as well. 953 00:37:59,668 --> 00:38:02,468 Speaker 4: Bob Seger going to be there and the Silver Bullet Bands. 954 00:38:02,508 --> 00:38:06,028 Speaker 1: Fan of the show, Love Bob, Show Bob, I genuinely 955 00:38:06,108 --> 00:38:06,348 Speaker 1: love you. 956 00:38:06,388 --> 00:38:08,068 Speaker 4: I listened to your music a lot. I like a 957 00:38:08,148 --> 00:38:12,228 Speaker 4: rock Come on, let's go still the same? Where was 958 00:38:12,228 --> 00:38:12,788 Speaker 4: I going with this? 959 00:38:13,068 --> 00:38:14,988 Speaker 1: I like, I think it's funny you keep saying like 960 00:38:15,108 --> 00:38:18,668 Speaker 1: Detroit fans. That's like, I have so many Detroit fans 961 00:38:18,748 --> 00:38:20,428 Speaker 1: texting me. I didn't even know where they were in 962 00:38:20,468 --> 00:38:22,388 Speaker 1: my life. Like you know why, It's because, like I 963 00:38:22,388 --> 00:38:23,788 Speaker 1: think those people will text anybody. 964 00:38:23,868 --> 00:38:26,188 Speaker 4: Now they're just texting all night. Like we're talking Lions 965 00:38:26,188 --> 00:38:26,748 Speaker 4: sticking random. 966 00:38:26,828 --> 00:38:28,588 Speaker 1: I haven't heard from you in years, but like, hey man, 967 00:38:28,628 --> 00:38:29,948 Speaker 1: what do you think of the game this weekend? I 968 00:38:29,948 --> 00:38:32,068 Speaker 1: haven't heard from them since I started working on the show. 969 00:38:32,108 --> 00:38:34,788 Speaker 1: About the Lions constantly getting lit up by Lions fans. 970 00:38:34,908 --> 00:38:37,268 Speaker 1: They all share one concern, and I keep coming back 971 00:38:37,308 --> 00:38:39,628 Speaker 1: to this too. I'm concerned, and this is into the weeds. 972 00:38:39,628 --> 00:38:42,948 Speaker 1: I'm concerned about the Lions secondary, all right. Puka Nakua 973 00:38:42,988 --> 00:38:45,028 Speaker 1: had about three hundred yards. He's a rookie wide receiver. 974 00:38:45,308 --> 00:38:48,188 Speaker 1: You look at how Tampa is built with their receivers. 975 00:38:48,308 --> 00:38:50,988 Speaker 1: Big Mike Evans had a couple uncharacteristic drops last week. 976 00:38:51,028 --> 00:38:53,148 Speaker 1: I think he'll be really motive by that. Motivated by that, 977 00:38:53,228 --> 00:38:55,668 Speaker 1: and everyone across the board like they have great, proven 978 00:38:55,948 --> 00:38:58,228 Speaker 1: made guys who are Super Bowl champs at wide out, 979 00:38:58,268 --> 00:39:01,068 Speaker 1: and Baker's chucking it. However, I have a heart versus 980 00:39:01,068 --> 00:39:03,228 Speaker 1: a head debate going on right here. The heart is Tampa, 981 00:39:03,468 --> 00:39:06,508 Speaker 1: the head is Detroit. Tampa was really struggling at the 982 00:39:06,588 --> 00:39:08,428 Speaker 1: end of the year. All right, I think we're gonna 983 00:39:08,428 --> 00:39:10,628 Speaker 1: find out this weekend that the Eagles are one of 984 00:39:10,668 --> 00:39:13,228 Speaker 1: the worst teams in football. Ufhold follow me there. They 985 00:39:13,228 --> 00:39:15,108 Speaker 1: destroyed that. I think the Eagles are terrible. I think 986 00:39:15,108 --> 00:39:17,548 Speaker 1: they might have lost to the Panthers last weekend. The Panthers, 987 00:39:17,548 --> 00:39:19,268 Speaker 1: by the way, who only lost nine to nothing in 988 00:39:19,308 --> 00:39:21,388 Speaker 1: Week eighteen to the Buccaneers. The week before that, the 989 00:39:21,388 --> 00:39:23,428 Speaker 1: Buccaneers lost by double digits of the Saints. They were 990 00:39:23,428 --> 00:39:25,948 Speaker 1: playing poorly, had a nice playoff game. It's been an 991 00:39:25,988 --> 00:39:29,748 Speaker 1: awesome run where it almost palpably feels like they're overachieving, 992 00:39:29,868 --> 00:39:31,468 Speaker 1: like they look great every year. 993 00:39:31,468 --> 00:39:33,028 Speaker 4: You're like, is this can this really keep up? 994 00:39:33,028 --> 00:39:37,228 Speaker 1: Whereas Detroit you're like perfectly built, powerful, the veteran quarterbacks 995 00:39:37,308 --> 00:39:39,828 Speaker 1: not making mistakes in the big moments and the home atmosphere. 996 00:39:39,868 --> 00:39:41,188 Speaker 1: I think it's also going to be really close. I 997 00:39:41,188 --> 00:39:42,588 Speaker 1: think this game is a field goal. I think it's 998 00:39:42,588 --> 00:39:45,468 Speaker 1: thirty one to twenty eight Detroit. I think Detroit wins 999 00:39:45,468 --> 00:39:48,188 Speaker 1: at home.
