1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: The volume. This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre.

2
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,080
Speaker 2: What is up straight Fire, fam, It's me Jason McIntyre.

3
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: Straight Fire for Monday, September eleventh, The first Sunday in

4
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 2: the NFL books is complete, and it was, Uh, it

5
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 2: was the hell of a Sunday. We'll get through the highlights.

6
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 2: We're not gonna go through every game. Rob g won't

7
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 2: let me. Apparently it's just too much. I know, I

8
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 2: could do over an hour and a half on the

9
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 2: Game's Fox Show, but people don't really want that much content.

10
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 2: They want the big news, the big fun stories, the

11
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 2: hot takes. Oh I got takes on takes, and of

12
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: course if you're watching on YouTube, I am rocking out

13
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 2: my Jet shirt Jets. Tonight. I did a massive game

14
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 2: against the Bills Monday Night Football. Usually the MNF opener

15
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: is a stack double hitter. They're doing that next week,

16
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: I guess because it is September eleventh, you know, a

17
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,919
Speaker 2: day infamous in New York history and you know American history.

18
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 2: They just wanted one game, you know, featuring both teams

19
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 2: from New York. It'll be a blast. We'll do best

20
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 2: bets at the end of the podcast, which you know

21
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 2: which way I'm leaning this podcast is gonna be so

22
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 2: NFL centric. We won't even get to the Texas money

23
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: line win over Alabama. You guys heard me talk about it.

24
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: A great win for Texas. A lot of happening in

25
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 2: college football. We'll get to it later in the week.

26
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 2: NFL's was just so poppin'. I don't know if I

27
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 2: should start by humble bragging that my son and I

28
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 2: are on the verge of a five and zero start

29
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: in fantasy football. It was that good of a Sunday.

30
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: Aaron Jones coming through. I don't think we're gonna touch

31
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 2: on the Packers, but they were. They look good. With

32
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 2: Jordan Love, I think I have to start the podcast

33
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 2: with what I thought after watching football out here on

34
00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 2: the West Coast. Games kickoff at ten am, and and

35
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 2: I'm just sitting in the house all day watching all

36
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: of the games. And I watched one game where an

37
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 2: offense looked like it was playing a different sport than

38
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 2: almost every other game I watched. There was a second

39
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 2: game that we'll get too shortly, that kind of looked

40
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: like it, but it appeared to me the Miami Dolphins

41
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: were playing a different sport than basically every other team

42
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 2: I watched play football Sunday. Now, usually the Chiefs look

43
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 2: like this, but the Dolphins and I had to call

44
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: up the box score. Here rang up thirty first downs,

45
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 2: five hundred and thirty six yards, an average yards per

46
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 2: play eight point two yards per play. The Dolphins offense

47
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: was a machine. Tyreek Hill eleven catches, two hundred and

48
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 2: fifteen yards. He was unguardable. J C. Jackson, who, if

49
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: you guys remember two years ago, was one of the

50
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,519
Speaker 2: best cornerbacks in football with the Patriots, got big money.

51
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 2: He got cooked, and they pulled Jackson off of Hill

52
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter because he was getting roasted so bad.

53
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: I know Jackson did have an end zone interception, but

54
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 2: this offense with Wattle, I think I have to double check,

55
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: but I think there was a Braxton Barrio sighting or five.

56
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 2: I mean, every time Tua drops back, it's a clean

57
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 2: pocket facing boatsa facing Mack. He didn't get sacked once,

58
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 2: and Tua is unloading someone named Rivers. Crak Craft caught

59
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 2: three passes for forty yards in a touchdown. Braxton Barrios

60
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 2: three for forty two. Durham smythe remember they lost Aseeki

61
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 2: people were like, Oh, what are they gonna do with

62
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 2: tight end? Just plug in Durham's smythe whoever that is

63
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 2: Wattle four for seventy eight. That's almost the output that

64
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: Desmond Ritter threw for the entire game for Atlanta. And

65
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 2: you know, it was like a non factor against the Chargers.

66
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 2: This Miami offense is unbelievable. And folks, we talked about

67
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: the schedule, it is absolutely brutal. But I said it

68
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: in the preseason. I went to Vegas in August. This

69
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 2: team scares me offensively. When Toua was healthy last year

70
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 2: MVP candidate and they were at the top of the division.

71
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: This is a team that can be an offensive juggernaut.

72
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: Miami showed it against the Chargers. And by the way,

73
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 2: Chargers came out healthy. Brandon Staley, we said he was

74
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: on the hot Seaton. Brandon Staley gives up over five

75
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 2: hundred yards in the opener. There was zero confidence that

76
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 2: that defense could get a stop. Derwin James played well.

77
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 2: I don't remember Bosa's name being called often. And Mike McDaniel,

78
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 2: I know he got the offensive genius tag and he

79
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 2: kind of stole that from McVeigh. But right now it

80
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 2: looks like McDaniel is playing a completely different sport than

81
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 2: what the other coaches are doing. The pre snap movement

82
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 2: is every down there's something happening. There's movement, so Tua

83
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 2: can read the defense and then as soon as the

84
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 2: ball is snapped, you just see guys spraying out in

85
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 2: many differents. It's like a water gun attack and you

86
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 2: just see stuff going everywhere, and I mean the Chargers

87
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 2: looked dumbfounded. Nothing could stop it. Remember the Chargers had

88
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,119
Speaker 2: that great game plan last year. They kind of clogged

89
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 2: the middle of the field, press coverage. None of that worked.

90
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 2: It looked like they pulled Tyreek off the line a

91
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 2: little bit, or they were moving him around a lot

92
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 2: because J. C. Jackson could not press him and Tyreek

93
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 2: Hill was unstoppable. This Miami offense is terrifying. And here's

94
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 2: where it gets interesting. The new Egle Patriots defense looked

95
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: great against the Eagles. Jalen Hurts had a worse game

96
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 2: than any game he had last year. The Eagles offense,

97
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 2: I think had like two hundred and fifty yards lower

98
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 2: than any game they had last season when they went

99
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl. So the Patriots defense is pretty

100
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 2: real deal Ken the Patriots and Belichick slow down Miami

101
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 2: next week. That's gonna be one of the biggest storylines

102
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 2: alongside Jets Cowboys, of course. But this Miami offense, if

103
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 2: it gets rolling. I know the schedule is the toughest

104
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 2: in the league. There's a reason I had this team

105
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 2: as a potential Super Bowl team. You saw Tua not

106
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: dropping back, not holding the ball along. It was like

107
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: bing bang boom, balls out and guys are wide open.

108
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 2: The speed this team has is terrifying. Rob listen, I

109
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 2: like the Chargers. I like Staley. The Chargers were my

110
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 2: backup Super Bowl pick if I was allowed to have one. Again.

111
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 2: It's week one. I'm not writing anybody off. I'm not

112
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 2: writing the Chargers off. I think they were a good

113
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 2: spot this week going on the road. They don't play

114
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 2: as well at home for whatever reason. But I do

115
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 2: believe this Miami team right now is the scariest offense

116
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: in the league. And it's really not close outside of

117
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 2: McDaniel's old offense that he used to work with San Francisco,

118
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: which we'll get too shortly. But Rob g this Miami team, Listen,

119
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 2: I don't like the Dolphins. I'm a Jetsky. They looked unbelievable.

120
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 3: Absolutely, And I told you last week during our preseason

121
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 3: picks that I was torn between Miami and Buffalo for

122
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 3: that last wildcard berth in the East because I have

123
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 3: your Jets winning the division and it ultimately came down

124
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 3: to me trusting Josh Allen more than to a tongue

125
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 3: bay LOA. I can't say I want to go back

126
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 3: on that statement, but I kind of want to go

127
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 3: back on that statement, all right. Yesterday twenty eight to

128
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 3: forty five, four to sixty six, three touchdowns, including the

129
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 3: game winning drive when the Chips were down, They're down

130
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 3: four in the last few minutes of the game, he

131
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 3: goes five of seven for seventy one yards in a

132
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: touchdown to A. I know that he gets his reputation

133
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 3: because he's been hurt and the concussions obviously really scary.

134
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 3: The wordy might actually retire this past offseason over the

135
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 3: last twelve games. Saw this stat online where he does

136
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 3: not leave due to injury. I know that's kind of

137
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 3: a weird spec thing to say, but roll with me here.

138
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 3: Three hundred and nine passing yards per game, over two

139
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 3: touchdowns a game, and for you fantasy nerds twenty one

140
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 3: and a half fantasy points per game if you can

141
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 3: keep to a upright and they did this yesterday again

142
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 3: without Tron Armstead, their starting tackle. If you can keep

143
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 3: him upright, he can deal it with anybody in the

144
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 3: NFL as good as anyone this side of Patrick Mahomes.

145
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 3: This Miami Dolphins team is scary. They got speed everywhere

146
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 3: their defense. I know they kind of got lit up

147
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 3: themselves by that Chargers offense, but there's not many teams

148
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 3: that are gonna be able to score with Miami. So

149
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 3: you're gonna see that pass rush headline by former UCLA

150
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 3: brewin Jalen Phillips causing havoc. He's the one who actually

151
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 3: closed the game there at the end on Justin Herbert.

152
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 3: So this Miami Dolphins team is the real deal. Holy Field.

153
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 3: And if you're in the AFC, if you thought it

154
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 3: was deep before, lookout, this Miami team's real.

155
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 2: I'm kind of with you on that. And you know

156
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 2: you brought up the Chargers, so a lot of people, oh,

157
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: Kellen Moore is gonna open up the offense. Well not really.

158
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 2: And this is a bit of a crazy stat They

159
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 2: had forty rushes Rob against only thirty three pass attempts.

160
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 2: Now the run game two hundred and thirty four yards.

161
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 2: From my layman's point of view, I think the Chargers

162
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 2: were a little scared of the Miami offense, and they said,

163
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 2: you know what, We're gonna take the ball out of

164
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 2: two his hands and we're gonna run it. And it

165
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: was a heavy Josh Kelly ninety one yards and heavy

166
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 2: Austin Eckler running through holes that I could have run through. Hell, Rob,

167
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 2: you played high school football. I did not. I sure

168
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 2: as hell no, you could have run through that one

169
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 2: hole where Eckler pealed off like fifty five yards. It

170
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 2: was massive. They were like laughing about it, the announcers.

171
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 2: But Mike Williams gets a concussion, so the injuries begin.

172
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 2: And if I'm a Chargers fan, like, ultimately, I'm happy

173
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 2: with the game. You were in position to win a

174
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 2: hell in position a tie. But you notice Fonngio, Rob

175
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 2: dialed up blitzes. He wasn't blitzing a ton and then

176
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 2: on the final drive he's like, I'm not giving Herbert

177
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 2: any time. He's gonna kill us, and they sent the house.

178
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 2: It looked like I don't know if it was a

179
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 2: cover zero blitz, but there's a lot of dudes coming

180
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 2: out of him and Herbert had no chance. A good

181
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 2: win from Miami not the worst loss for the Chargers,

182
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 2: given that the Chiefs lost and the Broncos lost and

183
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 2: your Raiders are now first in the Vision, but for

184
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 2: sure Miami has to come away very giddy about their

185
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 2: prospects in the AFC. It is just one game and

186
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 2: you don't want to overreact, but I do want to

187
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 2: now pivot to McDaniel's old house, which is San Francisco.

188
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 2: And I, by the way, I did go three and

189
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 2: two in the million dollar contest. But what hurts is

190
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 2: when you hype a game for months on this podcast

191
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: on the Herd, and then a quarter in you realize,

192
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 2: holy cal I'm off on this. I was wrong. And

193
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 2: that's the Pittsburgh San Francisco game, which from my point

194
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 2: of view, was essentially the second biggest surprise after how

195
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 2: good Miami looked the entire first Sunday. Pittsburgh did not

196
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 2: have a first down until under the two minute warning

197
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 2: in the first half. San Francisco absolutely came out and

198
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 2: just blew their doors off. They were sick of hearing

199
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 2: about Mike Tomlin and the underdog Steelers at home, and

200
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 2: they just kicked their ass. It was not even close.

201
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey had a nasty touchdown run and I'm not

202
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 2: going no cap, no cap from your boy here after

203
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 2: week one, but I wish I had a Rock Purty

204
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 2: MVP ticket. And you can laugh all you want Brock

205
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 2: Purty against Pittsburgh. And by the way, TJ. Watt had

206
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 2: three sacks, forced fumble, fumble recover. TDJ Wat was a beast.

207
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 2: Rock Purty was awesome, dealing left and right. Listen, if

208
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 2: San Francisco goes twelve thirteen, fourteen wins, I'll just tell you,

209
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 2: Brock Purty's gonna be in the MVP mix if he

210
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 2: could stay healthy. He looked awesome, and people can scoff

211
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 2: seventh round pick the one tying bind between Miami and

212
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 2: San Francisco. Besides McDaniel and Shanahan. I'm not saying these

213
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 2: are the two best teams in the league all those

214
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 2: San France certainly up there. They looked the best Sunday.

215
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 2: Neither of them has who would be perceived as a

216
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 2: superstar quarterback that's making one of the highest paid salaries

217
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 2: in the league neither of them. And to me, that

218
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 2: is huge for in a league where Dak Prescott to

219
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: make it forty five million or whatever it is, and

220
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones is a forty million and Deshaun Watson fully guaranteed.

221
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 2: It's the guys who aren't paid as heavily, Brock, Perdy

222
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 2: and Tua who looked the best I thought in Week one. Now, yes,

223
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 2: other quarterbacks did look solid. No, Deshaun Watson did not,

224
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 2: but he got the win. Joe Burrow just got the

225
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 2: highest paid contract ever and basically vomited his way to

226
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 2: I think eighty two yards passing and then they just

227
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 2: pulled him halfway through the fourth quarter and they were like, no, Moss,

228
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 2: it's over. I don't know Rob his San Francisco team

229
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 2: in an NFC where we like the Eagles, but they

230
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 2: did not look particularly crisp. We know the Cowboys are

231
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 2: gonna be very good, and they looked Hella Crisp. San

232
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 2: Francisco is probably the most complete team in the NFC,

233
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 2: right we trust at least I don't trust Dak Prescott

234
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 2: in the postseason, gab. He hasn't proven it yet, And

235
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 2: I just think when you look at the weapons. By

236
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 2: the way, Dallas did win forty to nothing Sunday, we'll

237
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 2: talk about it briefly. But if you look at their

238
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 2: offensive output, like you know, dak had like one hundred

239
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 2: and thirty hundred fifty yards passing, nothing super impressive. They

240
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 2: wont with the special teams touchdown, a defensive touchdown the rain,

241
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,679
Speaker 2: and then the defense which had seven sacks. But San

242
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 2: Francisco offensively plus defensively looks to me like the most

243
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 2: complete team in the NFC early in the season.

244
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 3: I would agree with you. And people are gonna say

245
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 3: that because it was a blowout and it was so

246
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 3: early that you're like, hey, well Pittsburgh, yous just they're

247
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 3: not that good. You know that that's not true at all.

248
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 3: There's a reason why Pittsburgh has a lot of hyde

249
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 3: coming to this season. Their defense is one of the

250
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 3: best in football. Don't let what San francisquent did them

251
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 3: for you. They are a legitimate, you know, contender in

252
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 3: that division in the AFC North. But if you just

253
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,079
Speaker 3: look at the boxer, I don't want to box score watch,

254
00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 3: but if you just look at the boxscer and tell

255
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 3: you the whole story of this game, this is how

256
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 3: the drives started for San Francisco. Defense goes forces the

257
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 3: three and out, they offense goes touchdown. Defense gets the interception,

258
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 3: offense marching down field goal. Defense forces the three and out.

259
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 3: Offense scores a long touchdown. Defense forces the three and out.

260
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 3: Offense gets a field goal. Defense forces the three and out,

261
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 3: but touchdown, and then they come right back and score

262
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 3: touchdown there in the second half. So not only did

263
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 3: they win because we saw a lot of teams win,

264
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 3: you know, you mentioned Dallas, Dallas won because their defense

265
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 3: was just unreal. Nobody, not even the Miami Dolphins, who

266
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 3: I just mentioned a minute ago, Nobody was as dominant

267
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 3: on both sides of the ball as the San Francisco

268
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 3: forty nine ers team was. We were texting before we

269
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 3: started recording, was like, hey, it was San Francisco that good,

270
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 3: it was Pittsburgh that bad. And it took us about

271
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 3: a minute and say no, no, no, San Francisco was

272
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: just awesome. They throttled them. They have so many weapons

273
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 3: on the offense. Deebo Samuel, who's probably their second best player,

274
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 3: was like an afterthought because Brandon and I, you and

275
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 3: Christian McAffrey did all the heavy lived, George Kittle might

276
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 3: not have even played. They were worried about him, and

277
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 3: then he just shows them like, oh, I'm just gonna

278
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 3: show hihim block for you, don't worry about it, and

279
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 3: what you know, he's the best blocking tight end in

280
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 3: football as long as brock Perdy can stay upright and

281
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,679
Speaker 3: him just be getting back from this elbow, you know,

282
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 3: surgery this quickly. But if he can stay up right,

283
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 3: similar to Tua, I don't think there's anyone that can

284
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 3: compete with them in the NFC. Yeah, if they're right

285
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 3: tackle fee, if they're healthy, they have more weapons than

286
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 3: Dallas does. Offensively, I think that their defense is right

287
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 3: on par with Philadelphias. So like, if those are your

288
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 3: two big contenders, I'm gonna trust San Francisco in either

289
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 3: of those situations. I know it's early, it's only week one.

290
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 2: You don't want to.

291
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 3: Overreact, but everything that we thought good about San Francisco

292
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 3: coming into the season ended up coming to fruition in

293
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 3: a big way on Sunday.

294
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, the right tackle for San France, I mean, he

295
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 2: got crushed, but it was it's TJ Watt, you know,

296
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 2: so is it like right? It's not a big deal.

297
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 2: You're facing one of the best in the league. Yeah,

298
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 2: San Francisco looks scared ver good. I don't know. I

299
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 2: remember some people were hyping up Seattle, you know, like

300
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 2: could they be a contender? I didn't even have them

301
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. They're leading at halftime and then the

302
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 2: Rams just destroy them. A bad whiff from me. I

303
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: did not put them in the contest. And again, we're

304
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 2: not gonna go over every game. But you know, you

305
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 2: miss some things. You think, Okay, the Rams are gonna

306
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 2: suck this season, and then you think, okay, Seattle's got them,

307
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 2: and you forget which I did that Like throughout his career,

308
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 2: McVeigh has dominated Pete Carroll. Even last year when McVeigh

309
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 2: had backup quarterbacks, the Rams were within I think three

310
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 2: or four points in both games, like starting John Woolford

311
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 2: of Baker Mayfield. That's how McVeigh just dominates Carroll. I

312
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 2: just that's a miss. Now, Seattle let at halftime and

313
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 2: then the Rams ran away with it in the second half.

314
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 2: But it was like, that's just a miss on my part.

315
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 2: I don't know another thing I missed, and I think

316
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 2: it was was it TA that came on here and

317
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 2: talked about it. I'm not sure which guest it was,

318
00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: but someone came on and was talking aboutquarterbacks who don't

319
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 2: play in the preseason, and a lot of these guys

320
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 2: did not play in the preseason at all, and then

321
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 2: they came out in Week one and looked awful, and

322
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 2: then you could tell the football is not crisp. Some

323
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: of these one PM games were pretty ugly, like bad football,

324
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 2: but I'm not gonna hear it's bad football because it's

325
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 2: actual football, and you know, there's fantasy and gambling and

326
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 2: so like Harball came out and was like, I might

327
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 2: need to rethink playing some of these guys in the

328
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 2: preseason because Lamar Jackson did not look particularly great. I

329
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 2: think he had two fumbles lost, one had a bad interception.

330
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 2: The offense did not really click. I mean they were

331
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 2: able to beat and cover against the Texans only because

332
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 2: the Texans offensive line was total garbage. CJ. Stroud, by

333
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 2: the way, all the rookie quarterbacks lost did not cover,

334
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 2: but like Baltimore did not look crisp, and the other

335
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 2: one Baltimore by the way, I had major injuries, which

336
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 2: we'll get into later this week, and that's probably gonna

337
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 2: lead me to a Bengals bet. But it's early. You know,

338
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 2: there was some other offenses that just did not particularly

339
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,479
Speaker 2: look good, the Bengals being one of them. Burrow, you know,

340
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 2: had the calf injury and ended up sitting. But I

341
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,239
Speaker 2: don't know, Rob, You look around the league and some

342
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 2: of these teams, like you know, Saints offense didn't really click,

343
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 2: Minnesota Vikings. You know, they put up big numbers, but

344
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 2: when it came down to crunch time, it was like

345
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 2: they could not come through, like Kirk Cousins red zone interception,

346
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 2: couple fumbles, and I think my gut tells me some

347
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 2: of these coaches are going to rethink whether or not

348
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 2: they play their guys in the preseason. Nick Siriani ultimately

349
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 2: was one of those who came out and was like,

350
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 2: our offense looked like crap. You know, they lose their

351
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 2: offensive coordinator. I know they jump out to the sixteen

352
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 2: to nothing lead, but that was all because of turnovers

353
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,679
Speaker 2: by Mac Jones and the Patriots. And I think I

354
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 2: saw stat Rob where the Eagles had something like four

355
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 2: straight four and outs and that only happened once like

356
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 2: all of last season. But the Philly offense looked confused

357
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 2: by what the Patriots are doing, and that's why you

358
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 2: don't want to overreact to one game, like, yeah, Mac

359
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 2: Jones didn't look great and then come back mod he

360
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 2: was fine and Patriots probably should have pulled that win out.

361
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 2: But is it because they confused the Eagles with new

362
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 2: look that they weren't ready for, or is the Eagles

363
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 2: offense just everybody's ready for it given what they saw

364
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 2: last year. I don't know we'll need more than one game. Obviously,

365
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,239
Speaker 2: Eagles host the Vikings. I think next week in our

366
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,479
Speaker 2: favored by over a touchdown. It's gonna be interesting. Eagles

367
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 2: crushed him last year. But yeah, I don't know, Rob,

368
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 2: I'm not a big player. Guys in the preseason could

369
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 2: because of risking injury. But is it that big of

370
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 2: a deal if you play like three series. I mean,

371
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 2: clearly some of these teams like the offensive output. I

372
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 2: think unders went eleven and four on the day and

373
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 2: in the one PM slate, I think every under hit

374
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 2: or it was close to every or no, every first

375
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 2: half under I think hit something insane like that. But

376
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 2: bottom line is offenses did not look good.

377
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's an understatement. I think of the day,

378
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 3: and don't hold me to this because you know, I

379
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 3: obviously I have other things to do. I didn't have

380
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 3: time to know whether or not every single team and

381
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 3: every starter that played in all the preseason, Like I

382
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 3: just I don't got time to watch every game like that.

383
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 3: But according to Yahoo, there were seven teams that did

384
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 3: not play starters in the preseason, the Lions, the Chargers,

385
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 3: the Seahawks, the Vikings, the Bengals, the Ravens, the Cowboys,

386
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,479
Speaker 3: and if you just look at offense, because usually at

387
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 3: this point of the season, it's always the offense that's

388
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 3: behind the defense. Every form NFL player will tell you that.

389
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 3: They say the defense it's easier to catch on quickly

390
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,439
Speaker 3: because a lot of it's hey, seaball hit ball. We

391
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 3: don't got to make these two complicated. The offensive line

392
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 3: is still gelling, the receivers in the quarterback are still

393
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 3: trying to get their timing down. We can be aggressive

394
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 3: and cause havoc, and that's what we can do early

395
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 3: in the season, not till later in the season that

396
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 3: the offense start getting on track. But if you look

397
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 3: at those teams outside of the Chargers, none of those

398
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 3: offenses were very impressive. The Lions offense only scored fourteen points.

399
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 3: The Chargers I mentioned, they were incredible. The Seahawks going

400
00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 3: against a very depleted Los Angeles Rams defense looked terrible.

401
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 3: The Minnesota Vikings, I know they put up big yards,

402
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 3: but I believe Kirk Cousins had three turnovers and that's

403
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 3: why they lost that game. You mentioned Joe Burrow in

404
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 3: the Bengals. This is now the second consecutive season where

405
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 3: he missed all of training camp and then started off,

406
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 3: you know, putting up a goosegg basically. You know, last

407
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 3: year was against the Steelers that think get four interceptions

408
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 3: in one game, and this one couldn't even get past midfield.

409
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,439
Speaker 3: The Ravens you mentioned, and the Dallas Cowboys who were

410
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 3: gonna get to in a second. The defense carried them

411
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 3: in that one. They're offense didn't do anything to rite

412
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 3: home about. So I think it's something that I don't

413
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 3: know if it's gonna see you spilling over into week two,

414
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 3: you know, to be this bad, obviously, I think they'll

415
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 3: get better, but it's not nothing right. I think there's

416
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 3: something to be said about having some level of continuity

417
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 3: and comfortability as you get into the regular season. It's

418
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 3: why in college you see most of these teams play

419
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 3: like Division three North Dakota Tech State, University of the

420
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 3: Children in Week one, just so they can get that

421
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 3: tune up. And these NFL teams they don't really have

422
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 3: that luxury it's supposed to be in the preseason. They're

423
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 3: just choosing, for whatever reason, not to take advantage it.

424
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're right, a lot of these teams have

425
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 2: new offensive coordinators or new head coaches, and I guess

426
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 2: we can expect a bit of a learning curve. But

427
00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 2: like you know, Minnesota, I mean they posted a lot

428
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 2: of yards, like you said, justin Jefferson, I think had

429
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:19,679
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty yards receiving, and they just ultimately

430
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,679
Speaker 2: couldn't get in when it mattered. And the way I

431
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 2: saw it, and I did put Tampa thanks to ta

432
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 2: If you guys signed up for his website, he made

433
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 2: some very clear points about listen, Tampa may not be great,

434
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 2: but early in the season, when healthy, their guys should

435
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 2: be able to compete. And remember last year Minnesota in

436
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 2: the regular season eleven and zero in close games, and

437
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 2: a lot of that is did the ball bounce your way?

438
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 2: Did you get some lucky turnover. Did you get the

439
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 2: ball hits the upright and goes in as opposed to

440
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 2: Dnking dunking the other doinking the other way and it

441
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 2: went eleven and zero In the regular season, the first

442
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 2: game of the season is a close one and they

443
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 2: only had three possessions in the second half. That's that's unlucky.

444
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 2: Who thinks Tampa can have a nine minute drive spanning

445
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,399
Speaker 2: the third and some of the fourth quarter. It's like

446
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 2: that's unheard of. Like they got a little unlucky. Kirk

447
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 2: Cousins a red zone turnover, the two fumbles like Baker

448
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 2: may Let's be real, Baker Mayfield wasn't great, Tampa was

449
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 2: not great. Tampa got a little lucky, and that's the problem.

450
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:25,640
Speaker 1: Rob.

451
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 2: I don't know what you're seeing on social media, but

452
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 2: I had a lot of Yahoo's coming after me. You

453
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 2: said the Rams were gonna stink. You were wrong. You

454
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 2: don't know anything you said Tampa. And I don't really

455
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 2: reply to these guys unless maybe they followed. Then I'll engage.

456
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 2: But I have to ask Rob. People seem to struggle

457
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:48,160
Speaker 2: with this. You won the season opener, congrats, versus you're

458
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 2: gonna be good or you're not. I didn't think the

459
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 2: Rams look particularly great. Seattle, by the way, lost both

460
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 2: their starting tackles in that game. And then I'm sure

461
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 2: you saw the clip. At one point Aaron Donald just

462
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 2: started to wreck Seattle and he broke through the offensive

463
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 2: line and Gino Smith, I guess was micd up drop

464
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 2: back and he goes, oh my gosh, it's just screaming

465
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 2: because Aaron Donald was coming at him like his life

466
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 2: was on the line. Pretty hilarious, But yeah, like the

467
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 2: Rams weren't amazing. You like what you see from the

468
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 2: backup Williams. I think everybody's gonna grab him in fantasy

469
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 2: because Cam Akers ain't that dude the kid from BYU.

470
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 2: I think I said it on this podcast. I know

471
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 2: I said it on the Herd, But you know, I

472
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 2: told you guys, Matt Stafford now bought a house on

473
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 2: the beach, so he's in town, and I know some

474
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 2: people in and around Safford who's Stafford clicking with? It

475
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,439
Speaker 2: wasn't Van Jefferson, it wasn't too too out well, it

476
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,639
Speaker 2: was the kid from b YU. I got him in

477
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 2: one of my leagues most targeted guy in Week one

478
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 2: had over one hundred yard. I had a great debut,

479
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 2: and you could see it like Stafford and him clicked

480
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 2: in the off season. The guy's a grinder, and like

481
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:02,360
Speaker 2: it's that little kind of information that helps in fantasy

482
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 2: and in gambling. You know, Eagles did get the cover

483
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 2: of four and a half. That was a little on

484
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 2: the lucky side. But you're always just rob trying to

485
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 2: get any kernel you can. What I don't understand is

486
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 2: how the hell did the Raiders beat the Broncos. I

487
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 2: know they're your team and you're watching closely and living

488
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 2: and dying with vy Jimmy garoppolo play, but like the

489
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 2: onside kick was super close. It looked like maybe you

490
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: review it, but you can't burn a challenge on that.

491
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 2: On the opening play and then the Raiders come down

492
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 2: and score. They bottle up Josh Jacobs. I think the

493
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 2: Broncos were leading in the fourth thirteen to ten, and

494
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 2: they were driving in the red zone. You're like, oh,

495
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 2: touchdown ice is this game? Of course they have to

496
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 2: settle for a field goal, don't. I still don't know

497
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 2: how the Raiders won that game, but maybe you can

498
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:48,199
Speaker 2: tell me.

499
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 3: I wish I could tell yo. They want that game

500
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 3: to look if you wanted to say that this is

501
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 3: one of those things where you will overreact or you

502
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 3: hit the panic button or whatever. If I'm a Raider fan,

503
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 3: which I am, to the rest of your Raider fans,

504
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 3: if you want to feel good about yourself because we

505
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:06,199
Speaker 3: beat Denver on the road, don't, okay like that. This

506
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 3: was not a great performance. Neither one of those teams

507
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,359
Speaker 3: played particularly well. If you look again, just look at

508
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 3: the numbers. The Raiders had two hundred and sixty one

509
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,640
Speaker 3: total yards, the Denver had two hundred and sixty that's it.

510
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 3: Penalties the Raiders had ten for ninety seven, Denver had

511
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 3: ten for eighty three, and each of them had crucial

512
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 3: late game penalties that almost cost a team the game.

513
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 3: The Raiders roughing the punter that would have forced the

514
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 3: three and now they didn't come back at score and

515
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: Denver did. And then Denver late in the game on

516
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 3: the game winning drive basically a game clinching drive helmet

517
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 3: to helmet hit that effectively ended the game for the Raiders.

518
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 3: If I had a pinpoint one thing, though, it's that

519
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 3: the early returns on this Sean Payton Russell Wilson marriage

520
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 3: are not looking great, Okay, Now, in the first half,

521
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson was pretty seventeen of nineteen, one to twenty five,

522
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 3: two touchdowns, passer rating on one to twenty nine, and

523
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 3: then in the second half ten of fifteen for like

524
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 3: fifty yards. Yeah, I mean, you're not beating anybody like that.

525
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 3: And I don't know how much of that is Sean Payton,

526
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 3: you know, putting the shackles on him, because they last

527
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 3: time they let Russ Cook, you know, they lose a lot.

528
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 3: So maybe it's a we want you to just manage

529
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 3: the game completed a high percentage, lean on the defense.

530
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 3: But if that's what he's gonna be asked to do,

531
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 3: then it's easily the worst contract in football. If you

532
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 3: have twenty seven for thirty four for one seventy seven,

533
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 3: like that's Desmond Ritter numbers. Oh, that's that's what you

534
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:48,919
Speaker 3: would expect a rookie quarterback in his first start, you know, CJ.

535
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 3: Stroud to do, Anthony Richardson to do, not a Super

536
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 3: Bowl champion, one of the highest paid quarterbacks in football.

537
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean I'll take the win as a

538
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 3: Raider fan, But yeah, it wasn't that impressive, and I

539
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,360
Speaker 3: think it says more about Danver than it does about

540
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: the Raiders.

541
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,160
Speaker 2: I gotta defend Russ a little. Listen, he was efficient,

542
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 2: but they have no with Jerry Judy out. That offense

543
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 2: has no game breakers, Like there's just no way to stink.

544
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 2: They can't scheme up guys getting open.

545
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 1: I guess.

546
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,479
Speaker 2: I think they had two plays that went twenty one

547
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 2: yards and that's it. Like everything else was like played

548
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 2: in like a tiny space and a dump offs to

549
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 2: tight ends for like four and six yards. Listen, if

550
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 2: Peyton hits that onside kick, I'm sure the game is

551
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 2: totally different. They get the momentum and everything. I thought

552
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 2: that should have been a Denver win at home. You're

553
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 2: in the inside the five yard line up three, Like

554
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 2: on some level, it's like, what is going up six

555
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 2: gonna do? That just seemed like a non shun Peyton move.

556
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 2: You couldn't dial up your best or your second best

557
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 2: play and then you're pitting them deep even if you

558
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 2: don't get it. I didn't love that, and then they

559
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 2: end up losing the game. So it didn't work out

560
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 2: for Peyton, which is a bummer because I think the

561
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 2: Broncos could do It. Was nice to see the Saints

562
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 2: get a dub for my alt season win totals. That

563
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 2: being said, we'll wrap up before we get to Jets Bets,

564
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 2: Jets Bills bets with I have three teams don't overreact to.

565
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 2: If you do want to overreact to someone, it's the

566
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns defense. Now. I know the game was in

567
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 2: the rain, but rob you play fantasy. We were facing

568
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 2: we we my son and I were facing T Higgins

569
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 2: and I keep seeing a zero zero. I'm like, what's

570
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 2: going on? And did he get hurt? T Higgins eight targets,

571
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 2: zero catches? Wow, Brown's defense was swarming. I saw the

572
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 2: stat seven three and outs for the Bengals. Now, yes,

573
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 2: it was in the rain, but that Jim Schwartz defense.

574
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 2: And again this is another no to ta he put

575
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 2: me on this, Like the Browns defense with Schwartz could

576
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 2: be very nasty. Miles Garrett a couple of big plays,

577
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 2: and I know they played Burrow well, but this Cleveland

578
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 2: defense man Deshaun Watson, did not look great. I'm not

579
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 2: gonna go deep into it, but if you want to

580
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 2: overreact on anyone, it's like, whoa is this Cleveland defense?

581
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 2: For real? We shall see, but don't overreact. Bears fans

582
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 2: freaking out because they get boat raced by the Packers.

583
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 2: Number one, Historically, the Packers have owned you. Looks like

584
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 2: they still own you. I wouldn't freak out because you

585
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 2: guys got crushed. Number two reason is Justin Fields has

586
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 2: so many new parts on that offense, Like DJ Moore

587
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 2: didn't really look like he was a part of the offense.

588
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 2: It looked like they're trying some things out. I think

589
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 2: it's a take a deep breath. I still think they're

590
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 2: gonna be okay. They did not look like a playoff team.

591
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 2: A lot of self inflicted wounds, But I think the

592
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 2: Bears are gonna be fine. Like they're gonna be okay.

593
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 2: Second team, don't overreact to the Tampa Bay win. We

594
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 2: kind of touched on this. Tampa Bay is not going

595
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 2: to be a good football team, Guys just putting it

596
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 2: out there. A couple of things broke their way. They

597
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 2: got the dub Congrats. They're not gonna be good this year.

598
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 2: I just know that. And the final team would be

599
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 2: the Bengals last year. It might be the last two years.

600
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I know last year for sure,

601
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 2: they ended up in a game where Borrow throws like

602
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 2: four picks and had a fumble against Pittsburgh. It was

603
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 2: a nightmare and they ended up still turning it around

604
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 2: and making the playoffs. And so after that I thought

605
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 2: about it, I was like, hmm, let me see which

606
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 2: teams lost in Week one and made the playoffs. In

607
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, there were four. The Cowboys lost to

608
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 2: Tampa by two, still made the playoffs. Buffalo lost to

609
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh twenty three sixteen at in Buffalo. People were like, oh,

610
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 2: what happened in Buffalo? They ended up being fine. The

611
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 2: Titans got smacked by Kyler Murray thirty eight thirteen in Tennessee.

612
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: I remember that because I was on Arizona. The Titans

613
00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 2: ended up the number one seat despite losing badly in

614
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 2: Week one. And then the Packers with Aaron Rodgers lost

615
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 2: thirty eight three to the Saints. Do you guys remember

616
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 2: that the Packers ended up being the number one seed.

617
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 2: So twenty twenty one, four teams lost in Week one

618
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 2: still made the playoffs. Twenty twenty two, once you know it,

619
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 2: four more teams. Bengal lost to Pittsburgh forty nine Ers

620
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 2: lose in the Monsoon to UH Chicago. The Jags lost

621
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 2: twenty two, twenty eight, twenty two to Washington. I remember

622
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 2: that I was on the Jags etn with a costly fumble.

623
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 2: You remember, see how I remember the losses, rob and

624
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 2: the Jags made the playoffs, and then Dallas got smacked

625
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 2: by Tampa. It was either Thursday night. It might have

626
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 2: been Thursday an football, yeah, caause Tampa I think won

627
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl two years ago. And Tampa smacks Dallas

628
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 2: nineteen three. Everybody's like, oh, Dallas is in trouble. They

629
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 2: win twelve games and make the playoffs. Bottom line, don't overreact.

630
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 2: It's just week one, rob Any closing thoughts before we

631
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 2: get to Jets bills, and again that I'm just so geeked.

632
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 3: About just one and we've been teasing it all show.

633
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 3: My one don't overreact is to a very small minority

634
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 3: of our listeners. But I know there's at least three

635
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 3: or four of you out there, all you Daniel Jones Truthers. Oh,

636
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 3: don't overreact, all right, I know. Oh, the four years

637
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 3: one to sixty had people a little bit skiptic, except

638
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 3: for a handful of people like Greg Jennings, friend of

639
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 3: the show, who still thinks Daniel Jones's top ten quarterback. Oh,

640
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 3: I personally don't know if Daniel Jones is a good

641
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 3: quarterback right now. Okay, I'm not saying that he is.

642
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 3: I'm not saying that he isn't. What I'm saying is

643
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,479
Speaker 3: when you are pressured the way that he was pressured

644
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 3: last night, seven sacks into two interceptions, one of them

645
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 3: being a pick six, a block field goal for a touchdown,

646
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 3: five forced fumbles. It's damn near impossible for me to

647
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 3: tell you whether or not that quarterback is any good

648
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 3: when he's running for his life as soon as he

649
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 3: gets the ball in the snap. So, if you are

650
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 3: buying stock in Daniel Jones, which again I know there's

651
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 3: only a handful of you, but those of you who did,

652
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 3: don't sell it just yet. I think it's almost impossible

653
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 3: for an offensive line to get any worse than it

654
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 3: was last night against Dallas. If you're holding on to

655
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 3: Daniel stock, don't sell right now. If anything, buy the

656
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 3: dip because it can.

657
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 2: Only go up from here. It can only go up

658
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 2: from here. What about your boy? Dania Jones? Vanilla Vic

659
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 2: thirteen rushes forty five three yards.

660
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 3: See, there's something to be said about it.

661
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 2: I mean three yout how about reverting to the old

662
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, the turnover machine where he's like running out

663
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 2: of bounds and says, let me throw across my body

664
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 2: and try to make a play and then he throws.

665
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 2: You're like, bro, what are you doing? Interception Stefan Gilmore diving.

666
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 2: It's like he's not good.

667
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 3: The only thing I can say positive about Daniel Jones

668
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 3: honestly about him from last night's game is he kept

669
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,479
Speaker 3: getting up. There's a lot of guys who when they

670
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 3: take a pounding like that would just stay on the

671
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 3: ground or say, hey, take me out, I'm done. And

672
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 3: to his credit, either that or because Brian Dable just

673
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 3: hates him, he stayed in damn near the whole game

674
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,080
Speaker 3: and was continually getting hit in the waning moments of

675
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 3: the of the fourth quarter. So shout out to Daniel

676
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 3: Jones for getting up and and again, if you are

677
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 3: a believer in Daniel Jones, just hold tight.

678
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 2: Oh please, you you missed that opportunity to sell stock.

679
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 2: Now they do have next week. Maybe he bounces back Arizona.

680
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 2: They did not look good against Washington. I had Washington

681
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 2: in the contest asanine pick by me, but who cares.

682
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 1: The only thing better than sitting on your couch watching

683
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 1: the games is making money while you do it. Here's

684
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 1: your best bet Monday Night football.

685
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 2: I'm seeing as we record this. Currently, Buffalo is a

686
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 2: two and a half point favorite at Bet Chris two

687
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 2: at the super book Draft Kings, which you know we're

688
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 2: trying to give away money here on the podcast, Draft

689
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 2: Kings has Buffalo minus two with a total of forty

690
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 2: five and a half. This is gonna sound super homersh

691
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,839
Speaker 2: but the only play is the Jets. Here we talked

692
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 2: a little bit about the divisional underdogs. In Week one.

693
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,839
Speaker 2: They were four and two, and then the Giants did

694
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 2: not show up, so they're divisional dogs four and three.

695
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 2: They were on a twenty wait divisional home dogs were

696
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 2: on a twenty one and five heater. I haven't tell

697
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 2: you that, but I do know Seattle lost as a

698
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 2: divisional home dog. Giants lost, did not cover as divisional

699
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 2: home dog. Colts lost and did not cover, so a

700
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 2: little regression. I just think this Jets defensive front. Now.

701
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 2: We talked about continuity earlier, Rob did and the Jets

702
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 2: have a new quarterback, new offensive coordinator. What else do

703
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 2: they have? New right tackle, new right tackle, new running back,

704
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 2: a lot of newness, so it could take a while.

705
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 2: They only played everybody in the third preseason game against

706
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 2: the Giants for like what three series against backups, so

707
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 2: the offense could be a slog. And the problem is

708
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 2: you can't get down fourteen to nothing to Buffalo. They'll

709
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:49,839
Speaker 2: just pin their ears back in that pass rush. We'll

710
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:54,439
Speaker 2: get to you. Fortunately, the Jets have this defense that's

711
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 2: just exciting and unstoppable. And last year they played Josh Allen,

712
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 2: super tough, got the cover twice, got the win once.

713
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 2: And here's the weird thing, rob and again, I don't

714
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 2: know if coaches think like this, but I just all

715
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 2: I can compare to is myself. By the way, I

716
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,239
Speaker 2: am back in as a soccer coach assistant for my

717
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 2: daughter's team and we got the win in week one.

718
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 2: You don't really care, but this is getting into the

719
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 2: mind of me as a coach, Like when I coach

720
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 2: hoops or a coach soccer for the kids. I'm always scouting.

721
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 2: I'm always thinking like, Okay, we're playing this team, you know,

722
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 2: are we gonna do this? I'm always thinking about that

723
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 2: or almost losing sleep when we're winning, and it's like

724
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,359
Speaker 2: the playoffs. I'm not even kidding, Like I think about

725
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 2: this in my head a lot. I wonder how many

726
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 2: Jets players Sunday night, we're watching the Cowboys defense bully

727
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 2: the shit out of the Giants offensive line and say,

728
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 2: oh my gosh, we got to face these guys in

729
00:36:56,200 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 2: next week on a short week. We better beat Buffalo.

730
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 2: I just don't know if it's getting in the mind

731
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 2: of the players or the coaches, like this is a

732
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 2: massive game for the Jets, humongous. You don't want to

733
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 2: start Z one to one National TV game at home

734
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 2: divisional opponent, lose and then have to go on a

735
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,400
Speaker 2: short week to Dallas. Okay, we saw the injury report.

736
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,880
Speaker 2: Makay Beckton had an illness tour through the team. Some

737
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 2: other guys got sick, Dwayne Brown questionable, Brieste Hall questionable.

738
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 2: I'm sure they're all going to play. But it's just like,

739
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,240
Speaker 2: the vibes on my end are not great. A little nervous,

740
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 2: obviously a little nervy because you see the reaction like

741
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 2: Bengals fans are like, oh, oh my god, what the problem,

742
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 2: Like chill my problem with the Jets is they're the

743
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 2: team I root for. We have the longest playoff drought

744
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,919
Speaker 2: in the NFL, and the schedule the first six weeks

745
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 2: is brutal. We just need to get the three and three.

746
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 2: That's it. Get two, three and three through six and

747
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,359
Speaker 2: we're I get we're a lock for the player if

748
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 2: everybody's healthy. So Rob, I would think that this game

749
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 2: is super important on so many levels that we see

750
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,959
Speaker 2: maybe some trickeration now. I don't know if the Jets

751
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 2: will be ready for it because there's so much newness,

752
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 2: and I know Salah, if his defense keeps him in

753
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 2: the game, is gonna want to play error On the

754
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 2: side of conservative. It sounds like Dalvin Cook and Brisall

755
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 2: are gonna probably split carries. I don't have Breeshall starting

756
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 2: in fantasy because of that, but miss Buffalo defense has

757
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 2: been soft against the run. I think if the Jets

758
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 2: offensive line is healthy, they'll be fine, and I think

759
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 2: the Jets defensive line ultimately will win this game. I'm

760
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 2: very curious to see sauce on digs and I will

761
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:54,320
Speaker 2: go with a Jets twenty three Bills twenty final score.

762
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 2: And your boy is borderline and sufferable. Tomorrow, Rob on

763
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 2: the pot. I don't know that. That's probably a little Homers.

764
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 2: By the way, the total forty five and a half.

765
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 2: And you guys heard the DraftKings ad like, if you

766
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,439
Speaker 2: put money in an account, you can then get free

767
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 2: money to bet on some of these games. Now week

768
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:17,319
Speaker 2: two there will be another offer coming. I don't see

769
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,839
Speaker 2: how you can't not bet on the night games Primetime Action.

770
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 2: You got to have some skin in the game. Your

771
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 2: boy went one and oh with Chief Lions money line

772
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 2: on Thursday two and oh with Giants Cowboys under barely.

773
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 2: What a sweat that was in the rain. It's rare

774
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 2: that you get in the you have to sweat an

775
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 2: under when one team's getting shut out. But there we are.

776
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna try to make it three and oh

777
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 2: because I will be betting the Jets. Not massive, not

778
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 2: a huge bet for me, not going going five figures

779
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,799
Speaker 2: on this one. Sorry, guys, just not not happened. You

780
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 2: can't do it in week one. But I do like

781
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,919
Speaker 2: the Jets here, Rob, and I'm taking the points.

782
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 3: I'm with you, and this is I know that you're

783
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 3: a Jets fan and you're obviously diving really deep into

784
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 3: this one. So you probably are at a point now

785
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,399
Speaker 3: where I would call it paralysis by analysis, like you're

786
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 3: so deep in the weeds that you're almost second guessing

787
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 3: and third guessing every you know thought you've had about

788
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 3: this game. I've been feeling great about this one for

789
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 3: about a week and a half now. I think that,

790
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 3: like we talked about on the preseason predictions podcast, I

791
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 3: think Buffalo is due to have some sort of regression.

792
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 3: I think they're the one team that, of the heavy hitters,

793
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 3: you're most likely to kind of take a step back.

794
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,800
Speaker 3: I'm really buying into this Jets team, and mostly it

795
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 3: is because of the defense. I think the defense early

796
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 3: on is going to carry the day for them while

797
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 3: the offense gets on track. I think this is going

798
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 3: to be a very ugly game. So I think the

799
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 3: under is absolutely if you're gonna bet big, bet the

800
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 3: under big. It's gonna look exactly like a lot of

801
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 3: the games we saw in the early slate on Sunday

802
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:48,720
Speaker 3: morning out here in the west, afternoon in the East.

803
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 3: And I think the Jets are gonna win it outright,

804
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 3: But if you're gonna give me the two points, then

805
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 3: I'll take it. So I like the Jets and the

806
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 3: under in this one.

807
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I guess. I guess you got

808
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 2: to think about the under. We both like the under

809
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 2: and the Jets, which might be scary. I don't know,

810
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 2: but it's weird. Like Jordan Love did not look particularly great.

811
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 2: Now I know, he had three touchdown passes and they

812
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 2: got the win. He didn't look great. There was a

813
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:20,399
Speaker 2: lot of yak from Aaron Jones, my guy, But I'm

814
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 2: just really curious how Aaron Rogers is gonna look in

815
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 2: New York under the lights stadium is gonna be rocking.

816
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 2: I saw stat that Aaron Rodgers has won his last

817
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 2: nine Monday night football games. I mean that totally is irrelevant,

818
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 2: but it's still like, oh, big game, national TV audience.

819
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,879
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, Aaron's gonna show up. I just can't get

820
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,880
Speaker 2: over how excited I am. I saw in our calendar

821
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 2: there is I'm not gonna say what it is, but there,

822
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 2: you know, the wife puts something in the calendar that

823
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 2: is school issue related and almost like scoffed, like a excuse,

824
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 2: like I don't see it. I mean, come on, Monday

825
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 2: night football, Jets, Come on, Jets, Bills, you think I'm

826
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 2: missing this This is one where Rob I'll probably have

827
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,280
Speaker 2: two TVs, one live and then another to like rewind

828
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 2: and be looking at specific players because that offensive line

829
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,760
Speaker 2: is gonna tell the season. That's gonna be so huge

830
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 2: and maybe you guys will better know, maybe you won't,

831
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 2: but it's gonna be a fun night in Casa de McIntyre.

832
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,319
Speaker 2: We'll be back tomorrow to talk about all of it.

833
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 2: Talk to you then,
