Watching these homegrown squads with like drafting, 10 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 4: developed premises kind of make it to the Final Four. 11 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 4: I love it, and a lot of stuff that we 12 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 4: talked about and talked about for a long time, it 13 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 4: all kind of came out came into play. 14 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 5: Yeah. 15 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be a good way to kind 16 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: of characterize what the Buffalo Bills are going to be 17 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: looking at now, right after getting bounced in the playoffs. 18 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: How are they going to get this roster back to 19 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: where it can contend again with a lot of salary 20 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: cap issues, you know, the late draft picks again, They're 21 00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: gonna have a lot of work to do, and so 22 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: it'll be really interesting to kind of follow over the 23 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: next couple of months to see how teams like that 24 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 1: they got close, just not close enough. We'll continue to 25 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: try to stay there. 26 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: All right, We're gonna go through the games individually, but 27 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 2: I do want to do the big picture of VIE. 28 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 2: Now we have the final four. We do this every 29 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,199 Speaker 2: year on here, and I jot down a couple things 30 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 2: I want to get your guys thoughts on it. But 31 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 2: if we look at the four teams right, Baltimore, Case, 32 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 2: San Francisco, Detroit, this is a couple of things that 33 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: stood out to me. I always look at We always 34 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: talk about it on here, with you rushing the quarterback, 35 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 2: protecting the quarterback. So Baltimore number one in sacks, case 36 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: number two in sacks. San fran tied for seventh in sacks. 37 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 2: Detroit is the one anominally they're tied for twenty third 38 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: in sacks. But three of the four can really get 39 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: after the quarterback. Yeah, sacks allowed, case second, so their 40 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 2: second in both. So it tells you how they built 41 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: their team along the line of scrim which San Francisco 42 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: tied for sixth and sacks allowed, Detroit tied for fourth 43 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 2: and sacks allowed. Baltimore is the anominally here tied for sixteenth, 44 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 2: but that's because Lamar he runs around and you're going 45 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 2: to get some of those sacks. You take the good 46 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 2: with the bad there. But the line of scrimmage thing. 47 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 2: Baltimore three first round offensive lineman, Detroit three first round 48 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 2: offensive linemen, Kansas City four of their five offensive line 49 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: starters were Day two picks, so second and third round 50 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 2: picks four of the five. San Francisco is the anomaly 51 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 2: here because Kyle Shanahan and his system is its own 52 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 2: deal where they just get skill players and then they 53 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 2: are going to take all the resources and dump them 54 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 2: on the defense. They have four first round defensive linemen, 55 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 2: So those are some of the some of the line 56 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 2: of scrimmage carryover from these teams. Not complicated. How you 57 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 2: build the team, You build it up front with your resources. 58 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 2: And the last thing that was kind of interesting to 59 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 2: me going through these rosters. Buck you can start us off, 60 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 2: rep follow it up. But Baltimore's got four first round 61 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: wide receivers. So and we've talked about where the league 62 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 2: is trending and saying, okay, line of scrimmage, and we 63 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 2: talk obviously start at the quarterback in the line of scrimmage, 64 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 2: that playmaker especially at the receiver position. They went they 65 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: pushed their chips in on that one. 66 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, they did push their chips in terms of Baltimore. 67 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 4: And I find it funny because I still feel like 68 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 4: the plays that are made are not necessarily playmaker plays. 69 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 4: Is Lamar Jackson plays like Lamar Jackson kind of scrambling 70 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 4: around and making plays and doing those things. But I 71 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 4: think as we talk about the group, what you talk 72 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 4: about line of scrimmage. There's been a lot of conversation 73 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 4: over the last year. People talked about a we're a 74 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 4: line of scrimmage team. We want to win offensive line 75 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 4: and defensive line. It's one thing to talk about it 76 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 4: is another thing to be about it. And you're seeing 77 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,839 Speaker 4: that the four teams in the final four like they 78 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 4: are teams that have really committed to making sure that 79 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 4: on the offensive and defensive line they have high end talent. 80 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 4: And from the scouting world, we always talk about you 81 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 4: can't miss on your first three picks, your first, second, 82 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 4: and third round picks. 83 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 3: Those are the guys that are at the basis of 84 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 3: your roster. Anything after that is gravy. 85 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 4: And so when you talk about Kansas City investing second 86 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 4: and thirds, other teams investing first round picks. They're using 87 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 4: high draft capital to make sure that the Thelana scimmers 88 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 4: are very very strong. 89 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: So it took me a second there, but you really 90 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: you went in on the Nelson Aguilar first round pick. 91 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 2: It's a first round talent, is no, it's fair enough. 92 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: He caught a touchdown in the game, so sore there 93 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: he goes. But I would say add to that, you know, 94 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: in addition to the line of scrimmage stuff, that the 95 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: next line on on defense. We've talked about that a 96 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: couple of times. I mean, look at the backers for 97 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers. Drake Greenlaw comes up with both 98 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: those interceptions. Fred Warner is obviously a beast. You look 99 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: at it with the Ravens, probably the best combination of 100 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: backers in the league right there with Rokwan and uh 101 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: and with Patrick Queen. I think you could say the 102 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: same about the Chiefs with Nick Bolton when he comes 103 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: back a sideline to sideline dude. Willie Gay obviously got hurt, 104 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: which kind of hurt them. Trankles really good player that 105 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: they prioritized in free agency to come over and provide 106 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: that group depth. And then you know, the Lions really 107 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: tried with Jack Campbell. I don't know if he's there yet, 108 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: but Alexandzelone, he's been a good player for them that 109 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: they got in free agency. So again, I think you 110 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: do see congruencies on a number of different levels. 111 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: No doubt. Again, I think it's healthy kind of look 112 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 2: at how these how these teams that made it this 113 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 2: far are built, and there's always connective tissue. Every year 114 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: there's connective tissue. The other thing that's interesting is in 115 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: terms of quarterbacks, I think we've only got one on 116 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 2: a rookie deal right, which forever we've talked about how 117 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 2: you know it's advantageous to build that quarterback on. The 118 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 2: teams are figuring this out, and a lot of it's 119 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: how they're structuring some of these contracts, but they're figuring 120 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 2: out how to navigate around these big numbers. And it's 121 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 2: another reminder that you better have somebody that can elevate 122 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: the rest of those guys if you're going to pay him. 123 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 2: And so far, all these guys, including Golf, who's taking 124 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 2: his level up, you know with Detroit, Yes, they're elevating 125 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 2: the guys around them, and obviously you know what Mahomes 126 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 2: and Lamar, do they elevate? And then San Francisco's getting 127 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 2: the benefit of Brock Purty on the literally the cheapest 128 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 2: contract you can find as the last pick in the draft. 129 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 2: So there's that thing, and then Buck the last thing. 130 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: Then then we'll get into these games. We're in the 131 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: middle of coaching hiring season. I'm always a little bit 132 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 2: leary when people say this is the formula for a coach, 133 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: and it's like, well, look at the four teams that 134 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 2: are left. You've got Kyle Shanahan, who we classify as 135 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 2: the genius play caller. You've got Andy Reid previous head 136 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 2: coaching experience, who had a lot of success as a 137 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 2: previous head coach. You've got Dan Campbell who wasn't even 138 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 2: a coordinator. Uh, and you've got John Harbaugh, who was 139 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 2: a special teams guy. Like, so, go find the best 140 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 2: leader that you can find and put him in there. 141 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: No, go find the best linebacker. Now that's the only 142 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: that's this hiring cycle. 143 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 2: Go find the best line There you go, there you go. 144 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 4: But the other the other thing when you talk about 145 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 4: Andy Reid, Andy Reid had not been a play caller 146 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 4: or a coordinator prior to Yeah, so As much as 147 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 4: we talk about the play caller thing or whatever like 148 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 4: that shouldn't be the primary reason why you hire a 149 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 4: head coach. I think leadership is everything, and I mean, 150 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 4: let's be honest, the Dan Campbell thing is the one 151 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,359 Speaker 4: that fascinates me the most, just because, like all the conversation, 152 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 4: all the jokes and snickers when he had that introductory 153 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 4: pressor about biting kneecaps and all that other stuff. I 154 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 4: will say, DJ and Rid the team is built in 155 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 4: his image. This is a tough football team, and they 156 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 4: are I would say, a rare team that can play 157 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 4: with force or finesse when they need to. And I 158 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 4: thought what was interesting They couldn't pee a drop running 159 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 4: the football for three quarters of the game. 160 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 3: But in gotta have It time, they've ran the football 161 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 3: right Gibbs. 162 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 4: In the speed I mean, I mean, it's unbelievable. And 163 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 4: we can talk about whether it's a running back or 164 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 4: the offensive line and gotta have it moments when they 165 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 4: needed to run the football, they ran the football fourth 166 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 4: and goal over running it. 167 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 3: Fourth quarter to run it out. 168 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:47,679 Speaker 2: We're running. 169 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 4: To me, it's just really impressive, and part of it 170 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 4: is just the force of nature that Dan Campbell is 171 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 4: they've assembled a team that are built with gritty, tough 172 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 4: minded players and it's working for them. 173 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 174 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think a lot of times people talk about, oh, 175 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 2: it's the you know your culture, like you have a 176 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: tough minded you know, you know how you get a 177 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 2: tough minded culture. You go find tough players and you 178 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 2: bring them into your building. That's how you do it. 179 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: You don't. You don't do it by getting much soft guys. 180 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 2: Go come in here. We're gonna toughen you. Guys up. 181 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: We're gonna leather you up a little bit, callish in 182 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 2: hands like nope, I'm a ross. Saint Brown was tough 183 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 2: as nails at USC when they brought him in. It's 184 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 2: not just the line of scrimmage players they brought in 185 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 2: were tough. They got tough guys at every position that 186 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 2: they've brought in. All right, let's jump into some of 187 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 2: these individual games. Let's start Chiefs Bills. Ratt lead us 188 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 2: off here. Biggest takeaway coming out of this game with 189 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 2: Kansas City getting a road win. 190 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,079 Speaker 1: Well, Josh Allen loses his first game when he doesn't 191 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: have a turnover, which I think tells you again two things. 192 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: The Chiefs wanted to make him be patient, right, They 193 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: wanted to make it they did not allow the explosives 194 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: I think god two explosives or three explosives in the 195 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 1: past game two in the run game, and they had 196 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: almost double the amount of plays at the Kansas City 197 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: Chiefs said in this game. And they just they were 198 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: they had to be methodical. Now, I think sixty four 199 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: yards in the air in the fourth quarter from Josh 200 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: Allen Deep to Stefan Diggs, it was probably needed to 201 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: be sixty eight and it was a touchdown, but yes, 202 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: he should have caught the ball and then you know, 203 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: obviously that was that was a They ended up getting 204 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: down there anyway and missing the field goal. 205 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 5: But still, you know what if. 206 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: I think is one thing there but Josh Allen man 207 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: the throwd to Khalil Shakir was incredible, Like he made 208 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: some big plays in this game. And he didn't I 209 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 1: did not lose them the game. He did not go 210 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: hero Josh to where you know and put him in 211 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: bad spots. 212 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 5: But they still they still just didn't have enough. 213 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: So I guess in that respect, I think where do 214 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: they go to find the formula to beat the Chiefs 215 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: in the postseason and to beat those elite teams in 216 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: the postseason. That's what this team has got to spend 217 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 1: the next six months figuring out one way or another 218 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: because they've got some work cut out for him here. 219 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: But overall, like I just I thought it was I 220 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: thought it was a pretty solid game from Josh Allen, 221 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: just wasn't spectacular. 222 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 4: Look, I think is really as simple was this. I 223 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 4: think Kansaity Chiefs are just a better team, you know. 224 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 4: I think we can talk about Kansas City in a 225 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 4: bunch of different ways and they're different than they've been. 226 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 4: But to me, they're just a better team. And the 227 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 4: pieces of the puzzle fit a little differently than the 228 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 4: Buffalo Bills. 229 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 3: And that's for the acknowledging. 230 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 4: The Buffalo Bills I thought played it really Look, I 231 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,199 Speaker 4: thought the game was played on their terms. I thought 232 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 4: they controlled the game the way they wanted to. They 233 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 4: played keep away from Pat Mahomes, They did all the 234 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 4: things that they needed to do to win the game, 235 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 4: and they couldn't get it done. And there's something too, 236 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 4: And I know DJ kind of understands it's been around Baltimore, 237 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 4: and Baltimore has been successful. Like once you start winning 238 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 4: in this league and win at a high level. Man, 239 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 4: there's just a confidence that you're going to figure it out. 240 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 4: And the fear that everyone in the league should have 241 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 4: now is now that the Kanci the Chiefs are in 242 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 4: the final four. 243 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 3: I mean, they know how to win it, and so 244 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 3: I think what the Chiefs did. 245 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 4: The Chiefs didn't lose it, even though Mikole Hartman tried 246 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 4: to give it away, because if you really think about it, 247 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 4: they had it. They had an opportunity to really set 248 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 4: They could have blown. They could have blown the game 249 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 4: open because they were in control of the game and 250 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 4: kind of stumbled or whatever. But I think the Kansity Chiefs, 251 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 4: as presently constructed, their defense is what sets the table. 252 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 4: Pat Mahomes knows how to play winning football. He played 253 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 4: within himself. I don't think he turned it over right, 254 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 4: he didn't turn it over, and then they did enough 255 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 4: Isaiah Pacheco to win the game. I just feel like 256 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 4: the Chiefs are just a little bit better than the 257 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 4: Buffalo Bills at this point. 258 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 2: I think it's interesting that we always talk about how 259 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,079 Speaker 2: you construct your team to win your division, to win 260 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 2: your conference, and to win a super Bowl. So the 261 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 2: Chiefs have been the standard. They've been the best team 262 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 2: in the NFL for six years now. They've been in 263 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 2: six straight conference championship games. So at least everybody in 264 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: the AFC is constructing their team to try and beat 265 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs. But how do you what do 266 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 2: you do when the target and how you're trying to 267 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: build up to beat a target keeps morphing and changing 268 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 2: and evolving. So just when you think you've built up 269 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 2: a team of dbs and we're gonna go out here 270 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 2: and cover him Patrick mahomest Dow's twenty three times, and 271 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 2: they're gonna be able to run the ball efficiently, and 272 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 2: their defense is gonna be young and dominant. Like I 273 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 2: think about some of those teams, like the Cowboy teams 274 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 2: of the nineties. You knows, the Triplets, everyone that was 275 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 2: a young, fast, dynamic defense. Fuck you saw it with 276 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 2: the Green Bay teams like during that time, young fast, 277 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: dynamic defenses and the offenses get all the headlines and 278 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. I you can go through 279 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 2: a lot of these iterations of these offenses that have 280 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 2: won Super Bowls, that have garnered attention. But at the 281 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: defensive side of the ball. There was something happening, and 282 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 2: this is this is a defensive team. Now instead of 283 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 2: asking Patrick Mahomes go out there and throw it fifty times, Hey, 284 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: let's just be efficient. There's gonna be You're gonna have 285 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 2: to use your superpowers with your legs, create extends and plays, 286 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 2: make some things happen. But we're gonna ask you to 287 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: do four incredible things, not fifteen incredible things. It felt 288 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 2: like Josh Allen needed to do fifteen incredible things to 289 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: win that game. 290 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, you know, it's kind of interesting too, 291 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: when you think about the flow of the game, right, 292 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: I mean, you had this from late first half until 293 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: early fourth quarter was touchdown, touchdown, end of half, touchdown, touchdown, 294 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: and then it kind of started to slow down a 295 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: little bit in the middle of the fourth quarter, and 296 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: you felt like, all right, man, who's gonna you know, 297 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: how's this thing gonna end up. Who's gonna have the 298 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: ball at the end. And like when they missed that 299 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: field goal at the end, I mean, like I think 300 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: everyone was fully expecting we were gonna get another ten 301 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: minutes of this game, and it was just like bam. 302 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: The suddenness of it was like, oh, whoa, just like 303 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: that it's over. And I think that just tells you 304 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: again the caliber of play from zero to sixty minutes 305 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: or sixty minutes to zero here in the caliber of 306 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: the players in the game, and you know, like what 307 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: it takes to get to this moment and what it 308 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: takes to be in a game that's this close. It's 309 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: just that feeling that was that was pretty spectacular to 310 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: see how you felt at the end of that thing, 311 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: knowing that there was more out there. 312 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 313 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 4: I think Marty Scheinheimer used to say this need you 314 00:13:58,320 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 4: always would talk about it. 315 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 3: In big games, more games are lost than one. 316 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 4: And I feel like when you have the experience that 317 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 4: Kansas City has, they know how to not give it away, 318 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. I think they've done a 319 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 4: better job of just in their two games. Hey, we're 320 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 4: just not gonna give it away. And let's see, it's 321 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 4: almost like playing ping pong where you're not the aggressive. 322 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna keep volleying. 323 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 4: And I don't think you have the stamina to be 324 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 4: able to concentrate and stay in it. 325 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 3: And that's what they're doing. And man their defense. 326 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 4: Because DJ, you're talking about young dynamic defense. I think 327 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 4: that's the secret sauce. I think the secret sauce when 328 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 4: you pay the quarterback, the most important hire is the 329 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 4: defensive coordinator who understands how to build a dominant defense 330 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 4: with young players, and that defensive coaching staff understands how 331 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 4: to get young guys on the field. Because I will 332 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 4: still say the best is yet to come for the 333 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 4: Kansas City Chiefs defense because George Caloptus and all those 334 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 4: guys year two, year two International Football League, they have 335 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 4: a chance to go to the second super Bowl. It 336 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 4: only gets easier for them as they play more together. 337 00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 4: That's the secret sauce. You can pay as much as 338 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 4: you want for the quarterback. If I can get a 339 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 4: young defense four years under the play, I'm not paying 340 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 4: any money for my defensive town. 341 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. The only thing on that is the best defensive 342 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: player is up at Chris Jones, who is still a dominant, 343 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 2: dominant Yeah, they're gonna have to They're gonna have to 344 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 2: really really pay him. Man, I would not want and 345 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 2: he looked he might want it. He might look at 346 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: it and say, maybe I could take a little bit 347 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 2: less here, But man, I'm gonna I'm a chance to 348 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: really talk about like a Charles Haley type resume you 349 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 2: could put together here by winning a bunch of Super 350 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 2: Bowl He's right there. 351 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 4: And I think they have to make the decision how 352 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 4: much long is Travis Kelsey gonna play? Because I think 353 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 4: you can structure the deal knowing that Kelsey's money is 354 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 4: coming off the books sometime soon. So but you got 355 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 4: to keep him, But all the other young defenders man 356 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 4: got to go. 357 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 3: He's not negot for you. 358 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 2: And as we move on to the next one here, 359 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 2: I will just said, I feel emboldened on something that 360 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 2: we've again, I feel like we've kind of set some 361 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 2: some scouting ground rules here over the years. And maybe 362 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 2: three or four years ago, Rhett you'll remember this and 363 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 2: Buck Yet we had this conversation the corners that aren't 364 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 2: tough and aren't physical, no thanks, Let somebody else play 365 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 2: with because when you watch that game, the tackling and 366 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 2: the physicality of those freaking corners for for Kansas City. Hey, 367 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: now like that's that's NFL football right now. 368 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 3: Not only that, So you talk about the tackling in 369 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 3: whatever game we go to next. 370 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 2: Uh. 371 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 3: The Green Bay Packers to me lost because of the 372 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 3: poor tackling. 373 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 4: They had a couple series where their guys didn't tackle 374 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 4: in the space George Kittle catches the pass they missed 375 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 4: the tack he goes sets them up, and then at 376 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 4: the end of the end of the game with CHRISTM 377 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 4: McCaffrey show, I don't know what kind of tackling attempt 378 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 4: that was from thirty four, Hey, DJ, like like, now 379 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 4: it's intyler. 380 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: That hole was huge, though, I mean like that there 381 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 2: that was But I get what you're saying that he 382 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 2: just threw a shoulder like he didn't try. 383 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 4: And now, like for so long writ like when we 384 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 4: were scouting, we didn't even really talk about tackling and 385 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 4: the report it was like the last line. 386 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 2: Pay you to cover. That used to be the line 387 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: we pay you to cover. Not anymore. 388 00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 4: But now it is apparent that if you cannot man, 389 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 4: it's such a liability for your team. And the teams 390 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 4: that are still standing they have really good tacking the defenders 391 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 4: in the back end. 392 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 2: Lions Bucks thirty one twenty three, The Lions get it done. 393 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 2: They're going to head to San Francisco. Buck. Biggest takeaway 394 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: from this one. 395 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 3: Man Jerry Golf put on the show. 396 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 4: I mean, Jerry Golf for all those years or whatever 397 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 4: people talking about him, Jered Golf played like a number 398 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 4: one overall pick. Like he threw the ball like you 399 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 4: supposed to throw it, Like he's throwing in tight windows. 400 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 4: He's working the middle of the field over and over 401 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 4: and over again to the point. Okay, so dj at 402 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 4: the lead eleven, where you guys have been there, So 403 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 4: at the lead eleven. We have these concepts that are charged. 404 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 4: I think the concept that they kept running is what 405 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 4: I think we used to call smith is two low 406 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 4: hanging guys running whip routes and there's a basic coming 407 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 4: right over top of twelve yards. 408 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 3: I'm looking at. 409 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,880 Speaker 4: The game and I'm like, my god, how many times 410 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 4: can the Detroit Lions run this play with somebody coming 411 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 4: over the middle and Jered Golf is banging it in 412 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 4: there every time? And for Aspian scouts who won't to 413 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 4: talk about anticipation, Jared Goff those with anticipation, I mean 414 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 4: he had no fear. 415 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 3: He was pulling the ripcord and letting it go. 416 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 4: So to me, the takeaway is, man, Jerry Golf, the Lions, 417 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 4: despite all the conversation about they need to get another 418 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 4: franchise quarterback. 419 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeadha when they made the trade. 420 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 5: Nah, he's the dude. 421 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 4: Look many Yeah, they fell into a really good quarterback 422 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 4: playing well inness. 423 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: But that throw to him onnrous Saint Brown, like it 424 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 1: just it just could not have been anywhere else. And 425 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: you know what the kind of the the unspoken part 426 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 1: of that whole play was that I thought was obviously 427 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: a crucial one because it had him, you know, had 428 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: him up by two scores. There is, Josh Reynolds is 429 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: running the pick, right, He's running the pick and he 430 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: is so meticulous and I'm sure this was coach to 431 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: a t by Ben Johnson and the receivers and Antoine Randall 432 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: All and that whole crew. There is, he gets close 433 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: to Angeloni and then completely turns away from him so 434 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: as not to be confused to get an offensive PI call, 435 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 1: and he gave Manra just what he needed to provide 436 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: the separation for Jared Goff to put that in the bucket. 437 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 1: But like those games and those plays and those details 438 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: make games like this when they're that close. So I 439 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 1: just I love seeing that attention to it. 440 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 2: No doubt. You talk about hit in the middle of 441 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 2: the field, Saint Brown and Laporta seventeen catches between the 442 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 2: two of them. 443 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, they were incredible. They're incredible. 444 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 2: I mean they just wore they wore them out in 445 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,199 Speaker 2: the middle of the field. And then the interesting thing 446 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 2: if we just go quickly to Tampa. I know he 447 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 2: turned the ball over a little bit, but I mean Baker, 448 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 2: I might imagine Bakers. He'll be going to their next 449 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 2: year as their guy franchise. 450 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 3: He played nails too. Yeah, yeah, I mean, look, there's 451 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 3: something about the draft. FED agree. 452 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 4: We can say whatever we thought about when he was 453 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 4: pick number one overall, but you can see the talent, 454 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 4: and the talent shows arm he was. 455 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 3: He was on point. 456 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 4: And I think the other thing that I'm beginning to 457 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 4: appreciate more in quarterbacks, I want my quarterbacks with some 458 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 4: scuffs on them a little bit, because I think both 459 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 4: of those guys have kind of been through the ringer. 460 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 4: The toughness that they both displayed, I'm with and while 461 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 4: we're evaluating quarterbacks, maybe need to make sure they've been 462 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 4: through a little adversity so the first sent of adversity 463 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 4: as pros doesn't completely crumble them the way that Jerry 464 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 4: Goff and Baker Mayfield performed at that game. You could 465 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 4: tell that their resilience did grittiness had been built up 466 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 4: through some really tried and true adversity. 467 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 2: One hundred percent. It's a great point. All right, let's 468 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 2: take a break, we come back. We will jump into 469 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 2: these other two games right after this. All right, ne 470 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 2: Bil's gonna have to plug his ears on this one. 471 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 2: Rat twenty four to twenty one. Niners get the Packers 472 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 2: in a game that felt like the Packers outplayed the 473 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 2: forty nine ers for the majority of it, couldn't get 474 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 2: out of their own way, and the forty nine ers, 475 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 2: not at their best, found a way to get a win. 476 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 5: Yeah. 477 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: Credit to and to that forty nine Ers offense on 478 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: that final drive. I mean, they were they were what 479 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:06,640 Speaker 1: they did what they had to do. They were special 480 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: ate up about five minutes o'clock time, Purdy was perfect 481 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: from a completion percentage perspective. If you take away the 482 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: kittle drop, and then you had the Christian McCaffrey parting 483 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: of the red Sea leaving him one on one with 484 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 1: Jonathan Owens, who you guys are talking about, were coming. 485 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 5: It was basically coming from outside. 486 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: The box to make that tackle. It was nobody home 487 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field. But I think, you know, 488 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 1: when you look at this, I think it does come 489 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: down to clutch play from the quarterback too, because Jordan 490 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:40,479 Speaker 1: Love through that interception that led to the h that 491 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,360 Speaker 1: led to the forty nine Ers getting the field goal 492 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 1: at the start of the fourth quarter. It was a 493 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: bad pick he had. He might have had Christian Watson 494 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 1: on a goal route for a touchdown and ends up 495 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: throwing behind the crossing the crosser that ends up getting 496 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: tipped and deflected into Drake Greenlaw's arms. And then obviously 497 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: we know the one at the end. You can't have 498 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: it like with that much time on the clock and 499 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: knowing what you need and with everything still in reach, 500 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: you've got to know that you that can't be the 501 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: play right to throw that kind of interception. So you 502 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: got to let your guys you got to live to 503 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: play another day. In some of those situations, I just 504 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: thought I thought Purdy and the forty nine Ers understood 505 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 1: the task at hand and executed in the clutch moments 506 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: just a little bit better than the Packers did at 507 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: that point. 508 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they executed better. The Green Bay Packers 509 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,239 Speaker 4: had the game on their terms. They forced the San 510 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 4: Francisco forty nine Ers out of their comfort zone by 511 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 4: being up and dominated. We had to see the forty 512 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 4: nine ers play a drop back game as opposed to 513 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 4: the traditional run and play action game. One of the 514 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 4: things that stood out to me with Brock Purdy, and 515 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 4: it's shown up a couple of times. You know, people 516 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 4: like to give us hard times about hands, eyes and 517 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 4: all that other stuff. He clearly has a tough time 518 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 4: throwing a wet ball. You saw him try and play 519 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 4: with the glove. You saw him take the glove off, 520 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 4: and he threw more floaters than we've ever seen. 521 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 3: He was like Steph Curry. 522 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 2: In the Pain, got away with a couple. 523 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, he got away with it. 524 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 4: And so look, it's nothing that will show up each 525 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 4: and every week, but it's one of those things where look, 526 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 4: man and poor conditions. It kind of came out and 527 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 4: mess with him. And I'm just kind of surprised because 528 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 4: he played it Iowa State. I'm I'm just surprised that 529 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 4: it grew up there. Yeah, there's so much. 530 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 3: Yeah he did Phoenix, Yeah, but I'm just surprised that 531 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 3: it bothers him as much. Having played four years with 532 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 3: the cyclones. 533 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was just thinking of like Christian McCaffrey is 534 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 2: like this four by four, this rugged four by four, 535 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 2: and the weather's nasty outside, and it's like this is 536 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 2: not not to take a not to take a shot 537 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 2: at at rock. But it's like, hey, why are we 538 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 2: driving the accord? We don't need to drive the accord? 539 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 2: We got we got a four by four right here, 540 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:44,239 Speaker 2: you know what? 541 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: You know, what what are we doing trying to put 542 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: the chains on the on the tires on the accord? 543 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 2: What are we doing with it? 544 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 4: I don't I didn't really understand that that part. And 545 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 4: then maybe some like in games play call and gets away. 546 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 4: But I'm like, hey man, your best player has like 547 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 4: fifteen care is almost one hundred yards. 548 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 3: It kind of seems like maybe you should just. 549 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:08,239 Speaker 2: Give him the ball, right, which is past? Which is 550 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 2: which again shows you as a coach when you've when 551 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: you've stamped like he stamped brock Purty and I'm gonna 552 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be proven right how great he is versus 553 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,479 Speaker 2: like Jimmy Garoppolo. I never really believed in Jimmy. It's 554 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 2: about what we you know, we're not even throwing the ball, 555 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 2: just run at the whole game, We'll just win the 556 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 2: game that way. And I thought in this particular game, now, 557 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 2: Brock give him credit. He made the plays at the 558 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 2: end that they needed to win it. He put together 559 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 2: the drive, But I don't think it needed to be 560 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: that hard. I think they could have won that game 561 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 2: just by feeding Christian McCaffrey the ball. 562 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, it did feel a little weird considering the elements 563 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 1: and and all that was going on in that game, 564 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: for sure. 565 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,159 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, that was that was one that I just, 566 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 2: you know, didn't fully understand. What how did they play 567 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 2: without Deebo? If Deebo Samuel doesn't play like they look 568 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 2: they look different. Yeah, they need him back. 569 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not saying he's the Jinga. 570 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 2: Piece we saw earlier this year too. 571 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, but like when he's out, like it was like 572 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 4: a completely different animal on offense. 573 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 2: All right, I'm going back now, Okay, because I always 574 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 2: think it's interesting because Phil Savage, who I'd worked for before, 575 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 2: used to always say there's no you know, if you 576 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 2: write a report on a player, if you do your 577 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 2: homework and you watch the tape and you write the report, 578 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 2: whether you give him somebody a good grade of bad grade. 579 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 2: Everything that you've said in the report will at some 580 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 2: point in time show up in the NFL. Now, it 581 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 2: might be able to maximize his strengths and minimize his weaknesses. 582 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 2: Sometimes the weaknesses get maximized, the strength to get minimized. 583 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 2: But this was I went back to the Jordan Love report. Here, 584 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 2: operate out of the gun at you toss state fluid 585 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 2: and smoothness. Setup throws from a variety of platforms and 586 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 2: arm angles. The ball jumps out of his hand. He's 587 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 2: at his best on skinny post drive throws and over 588 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 2: the top deep balls. Decision making was very concerning this 589 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 2: past season. Forced too many balls into crowds, didn't ever 590 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 2: give up on a play to a fault. His supporting 591 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 2: cast wasn't very good, but he still fell into some 592 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 2: bad habits us his athletic ability to escape and extend plays, 593 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 2: but there are occasions when he fails to climber, he 594 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,719 Speaker 2: set his feet. Overall, Love is a raw prospect too, 595 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 2: will need some time to develop. There is risk here, 596 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 2: but the payoff could be huge. And I was like, 597 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 2: that was him, Like that was what you saw last night. 598 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 2: You saw the good stuff, and that you've seen a 599 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 2: lot of the good stuff over the second half of 600 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,479 Speaker 2: the season, it's played awesome, but some of those little 601 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: things that showed up in college, Man, it just showed 602 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,640 Speaker 2: up at the worst time in this game, Buck. 603 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, you one hundred percent correct. 604 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 4: It showed up at the worst time, like the hero throws, 605 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 4: the things that really plagued him his last year, because 606 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 4: remember he had that big drop off. It was a 607 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 4: huge drop off his final year. You're like, man, he 608 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 4: has so many interceptions, and he had done a really 609 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 4: good job of getting away from that. But typically under pressure, man, 610 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 4: the real youth shows up, and so he has to 611 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 4: do a really good job of trying to harness that 612 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 4: part of his game, making sure he doesn't make those 613 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 4: decisions under pressure because it cost him. Look for as 614 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 4: well as he played, and look, he deserves the bag 615 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 4: and all that other stuff, did a great job of 616 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 4: helping his team. But now he's gonna be judged on 617 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 4: can he get to the next level, because we see 618 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 4: what the next level looks like. He will have to 619 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 4: be in the dance with the Patrick Mahomes, the Lamar Jackson's, 620 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 4: the Josh Allens of the world. 621 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 3: Does he have the. 622 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 4: Ability to rise up like those guys are able to 623 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 4: rise up in those key moments. 624 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 2: All right, let's uh, that's a great point. Let's get 625 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 2: to last game here. We don't have a ton of 626 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 2: time left, but Ravens Texans a game that was dead 627 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 2: even going at a halftime, and the Ravens open it 628 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 2: up in the second half. Buck, I'll go to you 629 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,239 Speaker 2: first on this one. As our high school coach on 630 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 2: the pod, I tweeted out that felt like watch I 631 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 2: was watching a high school game where the coach goes 632 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 2: into the locker room and says, the rest of you guys, 633 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 2: go get some oranges, Lamar, come here, come here, all right, 634 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 2: just take it. You just do you do your thing. Okay, 635 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 2: don't worry aout anybody else. You just just be you, 636 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 2: and we'll go win this game. Put you the best athlete, 637 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 2: best player, quarterback, Go win me the game. Buck did that? 638 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 2: It felt like I was watching high school game. How 639 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 2: easy he made that look, DJ. 640 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 4: Sometimes it's as simple as that in high school. You 641 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 4: put the best player to this side, Like, hey man, 642 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 4: how long are we gonna go before you take this over? 643 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 4: Like how long do we have to wait before you 644 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 4: just take it over? Like? 645 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 3: Can we take the game over and that's what he did. 646 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 3: And I kind of tease this a little bit. 647 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 4: I felt like Lamar Jackson has taken some of the 648 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 4: stuff that Pat Mahomes has done and made it a 649 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 4: part of his game. When the Ravens have changed over 650 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 4: their offense, they went from doing more quarterback design runs. Hey, 651 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 4: we're gonna make you the running back to no, we're 652 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 4: gonna make you the scramble. I feel like Lamar Jackson 653 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 4: is now playing Madden. Hey, I'm gonna send all you 654 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 4: guys deep. Oh there's a whole and I'm a scoop. 655 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,959 Speaker 4: And what it has done same production on the ground, 656 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 4: you were big hits. And so I think he's a 657 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 4: more dangerous player now because of that part of the game. 658 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,479 Speaker 4: He always had it, but he didn't utilize it the 659 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 4: way that he's utilizing it now. Now he's a scarier 660 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 4: guy to defend because the runs are coming on scrambles, 661 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 4: any occasional design run, which makes it really tough for 662 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 4: the defense because now your. 663 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 3: Force are we're playing zone, we're playing man, do I plaster? 664 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 3: Do I stay? All this other stuff and their offense 665 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 3: is dynamic. He was terrific. The numbers won't show it 666 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 3: two hundred and fifty two total yards. But he dominated 667 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 3: the game when he needed to dominate the game. 668 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, and to me, you know, you look on the 669 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: flip side and it felt like c J. Stroud, you know, 670 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 1: was uncomfortable, right, you know, he was under pressure constantly. 671 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 3: You know. 672 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: It was almost like I felt like watching that National 673 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: title game with Michigan against Michael Pennix was just it 674 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: was just under pressure a bunch you know, did his 675 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: best to kind of keep things, you know, as stable 676 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: and as close as he could throughout the first half. 677 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: But then you know, and then get back to the 678 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: Lamar part. I mean, Demico Ryans was was trying everything, 679 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: well me just to try to stop them. I mean 680 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: it was blitzing all over the place. 681 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 2: That's early, blitzing like crazy. I thought they probably stuck 682 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 2: with that committed to that time they rushed for they 683 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 2: got killed. 684 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 5: You just can't turn your back either, like you just can't. 685 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 3: You can't. 686 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 5: I don't know how anybody plays back. 687 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 2: You have to have the personnel too, Like Christian Harris 688 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 2: can be that guy. Denzel Paraman cannot be that guy. 689 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 2: You cannot have Denzel Paraman sitting there as the as 690 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 2: the whole defender, as the only person between Lamar Jacksons 691 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 2: that you can't. 692 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 5: Have brighton space. 693 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 2: It's not a knock on him. I mean, there's not 694 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 2: very many people that can do that. They have one 695 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 2: in Christian Harris, but you can't. You got to have 696 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 2: another guy like that, you know. That's what they're gonna 697 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 2: have to do in the offseason, knowing they're gonna have 698 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 2: to go through Baltimore. 699 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: And he couldn't stop the running. Even when it wasn't Lamar, 700 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: they couldn't stop the running. I mean, the Ravens had 701 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 1: their way, you know, physically, it felt like upfront for 702 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: the majority of that game, just like we were talking 703 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 1: at the top of the pod. 704 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I am excited about Houston. I'll give you 705 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 2: another reason to be excited about him. I was just 706 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 2: looking this up this morning. The Houston Texans. Where are 707 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 2: they here? The Houston Texans have fifty nine point three 708 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 2: million dollars worth of cap space. So that is the 709 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,120 Speaker 2: beautiful thing about the rookie quarterback deal. When you have 710 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: a guy who's this good this early as c. J. 711 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 2: Stroud is Buck, they're going to get a chance to 712 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: load up around him and whether they need to put 713 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 2: those resources defensively, offensively, whatever they want to do. Rett 714 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 2: they can do whatever they need to do. 715 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 5: And just lastly, by the way, Kenyan Green didn't play. 716 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: A snap this year. It was a first round pick 717 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: for him, you know, so you're gonna get you get 718 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: a first round talent offensive lineman hopefully back for you, 719 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: you know, to start next year. And now you can 720 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: really start putting some pieces together because Jew Scruggs came 721 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: back you know, late season, gave him a lift. I 722 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: think they find some real pieces to kind of get 723 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: their best five in there next year. 724 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 4: Look, it's a good team to will positioned to do it. 725 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 4: They have to be selected with how they spend their cash. 726 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 4: But you got the quarterback, which is a big piece 727 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 4: of the puzzle. You got the coach, and look, man, 728 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 4: they're just continued to build this out. But they got 729 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 4: a taste of it. They see how how far away 730 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 4: it is for them to get to that next level. 731 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 4: But they also see that they can play with the 732 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 4: big boys, and that's they give you a lot of 733 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 4: confidence going into the off season. 734 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, they miss Tank Dell in that game too. It'll 735 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 2: be nice to have him out there. All right, this 736 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 2: was a fun one today. I hope you guys have 737 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 2: enjoyed this. Be sure to check out tomorrow's episode because 738 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 2: Buck has his first mock draft.
