1 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 1: Oh my god, what did we just witness? 2 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 2: Sunday's divisional round all wrapped up? The divisional round period 3 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 2: is wrapped up. We've got conference title games set, massive 4 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 2: injuries to discuss. Welcome to the Favorites, presented by DraftKings. 5 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 2: I'm your host, Brandon Kravitz, joined by my fellow NFL 6 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 2: cappers Kendra Middleton and Stuckey. We've got our goats and 7 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 2: votes queued up. Our biggest takeaways from this round in 8 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 2: the NFL postseason. A very brief parlay recap. We were 9 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 2: toast before we ever even got to Sunday. Broncos Bills 10 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 2: flew over the total we had the under Rams Bears 11 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 2: then flew under the total Bears plus four and a half. 12 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 2: That one did come through, so shout out to Kendra 13 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 2: for that. We're gonna do a quick reaction of what 14 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: we just witnessed. We've got AFC title game news and 15 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: some Josh Allen opinions to get out there. The Bears 16 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 2: were down seven in the final two minutes, ball at midfield. 17 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 2: They make it down to the fourteen, fourth and four. 18 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 2: Caleb's backpedaling heaves the ball. I thought he was just 19 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 2: chucking the ball. Into space wide open Cole Comet back 20 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: of the end zone, and what was deemed a fourteen 21 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,559 Speaker 2: yard touchdown pass obviously was much greater than that game 22 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 2: goes to overtime. Caleb then throws a pick just completely 23 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 2: inexplicable to force the ball down the field. In that situation, 24 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 2: the Rams then work the ball down the field. Harrison 25 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: MeVis with the walk off field goal and rip to 26 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,919 Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears, who were the best watch in the postseason, Kendra, 27 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 2: your initial reaction to what we just witnessed with the 28 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 2: Rams walk off. 29 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 3: I thought Caleb was so screwed on that play, I 30 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 3: really did. 31 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 4: I thought he was going to get sacked. Thought he 32 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 4: was just chucking the ball up for somebody. 33 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 3: He's just the that he plays when the entire world 34 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 3: is on his shoulders makes me feel like that is 35 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 3: like his preferred place to be and he plays his 36 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 3: best football that way, which I don't know if that 37 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 3: bodes well or not for the rest of his career, 38 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 3: if he continues to kind of need to rely on 39 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 3: this final fourth quarter, last second drive heroics, but damn 40 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 3: does he do it better than anybody else. And but 41 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 3: then that pick that was that was tough so I 42 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 3: don't know, I'm not excited for the potential of another 43 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 3: Seahawks Patriots Super Bowl. 44 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 4: But I was gonna save this from my goats and woats. 45 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 3: But Nick Foles really kind of giving us some hope 46 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 3: after trolling the Patriots today saying maybe backups are really 47 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 3: the key to beat them. 48 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 4: So hey, if it gets there, that would be kind 49 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 4: of funny. 50 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, they backup had some time to marinate in the offense. 51 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 2: This one might feel a little different for the Denver Broncos. 52 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 2: Stuck he arey being too harsh on Caleb with that, 53 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 2: I int because DJ Moore wasn't exactly where he needed 54 00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 2: to be either. 55 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I can't put that 56 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 5: pick all on Kale. But they did have three turnovers 57 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 5: in the game. The Rams didn't have any, which might 58 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 5: have been the difference. But I thought it was two 59 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 5: poorly coached teams today. I mean, I was so excited 60 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 5: to watch McVeigh versus Ben Johnson. I mean, how many 61 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 5: how many dives are you gonna run on third and 62 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 5: fourth and one and fail? Then? I mean that was 63 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 5: it was some I thought the Bears were better on 64 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 5: a down to down basis in the game. They just 65 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 5: they had three failed fourth downs, a lot of them 66 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 5: were awful calls. So I'm not sure what Ben Johnson 67 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 5: was doing that. I don't know what McVay was doing. 68 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 5: I mean, at one point they had like thirty six 69 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 5: dropbacks and twelve rushes even though they had a fifty 70 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 5: five percent rush success right against one of the worst 71 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 5: run defenses in the league. Abandoned his thirteen the heavy personnel, 72 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 5: which should have worked all day against the Bears. So yeah, 73 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 5: and McVeigh to sum up how bad the coaches were 74 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 5: in this game. Two thirty eight to go or too yeah, 75 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 5: two forty seven to go. Ben Johnson doesn't call a 76 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 5: time now, which is a brain dead because you could 77 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 5: run it down to you know, seven seconds two oh seven. 78 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 5: You can run onceid a clock out on a two 79 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 5: o seven, You could run a passing play and end 80 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 5: the game without a penalty. And then McVeigh decides to 81 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 5: run a surrender run and the only time they say 82 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 5: by doing that is the time that it takes on 83 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 5: the shank punt that they had. That was horrendous in 84 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 5: game coaching, you you have a veteran quarterback you can 85 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 5: throw to end the game. And then you have the 86 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 5: Cardiac Bears come down and score on one of the 87 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 5: craziest so that won't really be remembered now. But I 88 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 5: thought both coaches were really bad. I also thought McDermott 89 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 5: was really bad at the end of the first half. 90 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 5: We talked about this last week. At the end of 91 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 5: first halves. It cost teams games. What were you going 92 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 5: to get out of Josh Allen scramming there with no 93 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 5: timeouts ends up a fluky fumble field goal which ended 94 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 5: up being the difference in the game, and uh, the 95 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 5: Bills losing overtime up break City again for Buffalo. 96 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Bears defense was better today than I thought 97 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 3: they would be, too. 98 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 4: I will say that. 99 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 5: Brisker played really well. The Rams also weren't prepared for 100 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 5: like a slot blitz, like what did you watch the 101 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 5: second half last week? So I don't I don't know. 102 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 5: Maybe they were just were too cold after all. But 103 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 5: the Bears defense did play a lot better than I 104 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 5: expected them to today, So had to to Dennis Allen 105 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 5: in that group. 106 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: I did think the Bears were the better team today, 107 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 2: but Ben Johnson doing what I mean, We've seen this 108 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,799 Speaker 2: from Sean McVay Sean McVay and Stuck. 109 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: You mentioned it. We saw it a little bit today. 110 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 2: These offensive geniuses that end up in these big game situations, 111 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 2: they just end up frozen hard in the pun with 112 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 2: the weather out there, but they just they don't call 113 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 2: their traditional game. I mean, you had how many fourth 114 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 2: and short, third and short situations where you have a 115 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 2: chance to get creative and instead they're calling the most 116 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: obvious plays in. 117 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 1: The middle of the field. 118 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 2: I mean, we had one where Caleb Williams was throwing 119 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 2: the ball just into traffic down by the goal line, 120 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: absolutely inexplicable. 121 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: One thing I will say. 122 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 5: Is sometimes the ball like it's not that it's not 123 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 5: that difficult. The two times they did it, they got it. 124 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 5: The two times they didn't, they didn't get it. 125 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 2: The reverse game that we've seen, the trickeration that we've 126 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 2: seen from the Ben Johnson offense, it was just not 127 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 2: there at all in these critical situations. I do agree 128 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 2: with his self awareness though the decision, and obviously in hindsight, 129 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 2: they lost the game. So maybe people are going to 130 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: pick at this, the decision to kick the extra point 131 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: at the end of the game, with how much he 132 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 2: had zapped his own creativity in these short yarded situations. 133 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: I don't think they were going to convert that two 134 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: point conversion. So to go to overtime where you had 135 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: been out playing the Rams put the game essentially on 136 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 2: the home field advantage that you have in that situation. 137 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 2: I had no problem with him kicking the extra either. 138 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 4: I absolutely agree with you. 139 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 3: I he was actually texting my friend group about that 140 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 3: because we all we have a Bears fan in our group, 141 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 3: so we've been silently kind of cheering for him, and. 142 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 4: We all texted each other. 143 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 3: I wholeheartedly expected him to go for two just there, 144 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 3: and I'm so glad that he didn't. 145 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree, I agree. I think if you're on 146 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 5: the road as the underdog, or if you're at home 147 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 5: like getting clearly outplayed, I didn't mind them kicking extra 148 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 5: point there and then you know, look to add the 149 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 5: ball with a chance to win at midfield. So yeah, 150 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 5: I don't think he I don't think he watched that 151 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 5: call at all. 152 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: So that sets up a Rams Seahawks NFC championship game. 153 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: We'll talk about that in a bit, but we got 154 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 2: to get to the biggest news of the weekend. 155 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: It's the injury to bo Nicks. 156 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 2: Like it or not, we are getting Jared Stidham in 157 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 2: a conference championship game. 158 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: Stuck. 159 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 2: He'd we can talk about the Bills aspect of it, 160 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 2: and I think that's probably where we'll end up spending 161 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: most of our time. Do you give the Broncos any 162 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 2: shot here against New England with Stidham at quarterback? 163 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 5: Uh? Sure, it's I mean it's one it's one football game. 164 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: Uh so. 165 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 5: Uh like they they're they're gonna need to force turnovers. 166 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 5: Peyton's gonna have to be super creative with his play calls. 167 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 5: But you know, there's still a lot of uncertainty with 168 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 5: this Patriots team, Like, can we see them play a 169 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 5: team like that has any starters available? I mean, even today, 170 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 5: you get Nico Collins out Schultz I thought had the 171 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 5: biggest matchup advantage of all uh and this game gets 172 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 5: hurt in the first quarter after he has fifty yards. 173 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 5: They were without their right tackle. I mean, like, can 174 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 5: we see them play any team with stars? We're not 175 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 5: gonna win. The Broncos have offensive line and wide receiver 176 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 5: injuries too that have to be monitored, and you're gonna 177 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 5: have Trevor Simon in there. So I I just say, 178 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 5: Trevor Simon, I'm getting flashbacks for the un today. Yeah, 179 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 5: they still signed Ben de Nucci, but uh Stidham. Yeah, 180 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 5: I mean, we don't have a huge sample size on Steadham. 181 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 5: He had that one huge game randomly against like a good, 182 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 5: good forty Niners defense. I think I think that was 183 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 5: like late in the year and a meaningless start. But 184 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 5: I got to dig in. 185 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 2: I started, by the way, in over seven hundred days. 186 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 2: JAHI has not started a game in over seven hundred days. 187 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 5: I do think that we've seen, Like the other thing 188 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 5: is that the Patriots have faced nothing but backups the 189 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 5: entire year. But they've also they didn't face any good 190 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 5: defenses the entire season, and we've seen them play two 191 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 5: good defenses in the playoffs so far. And Drake May 192 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 5: has not looked great. I mean he has what six 193 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 5: fumbles and two interceptions in two games. They were pretty 194 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 5: lucky to get that one fumble, which maybe the game 195 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 5: is different. I mean, Stroud was just so bad it 196 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 5: probably wouldn't have mattered. But May and that offensive line 197 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 5: are vulnerable and that Benito own company. They're gonna have 198 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 5: to get pressure and they're gonna have to force turnovers 199 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 5: may his pocket presence has been really bad. So that's 200 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 5: how Denver is gonna have to win this game. Peyton's 201 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 5: gonna have to be creative. Yeah, they have a chance. 202 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 5: I think this it's gone it's out to like five 203 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 5: and a half. I think it's gone too far now, 204 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 5: like it could end in disaster like that. Clearly, there's 205 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 5: still a lot of uncertainty with this Patriots team. But 206 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 5: like this is now assuming that bo Nix is worth 207 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,719 Speaker 5: like a touchdown, come on, like. 208 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 2: I would have Yeah, I probably would have had him 209 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 2: prior to watching him orchestrated game winning drive against the Bills, 210 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 2: probably would have had him closer to three three and 211 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 2: a half. 212 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think four is like a four to four 213 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 5: and a half. You know, maybe like given the circumstances, 214 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 5: like with some of the other injuries, you could maybe 215 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 5: stretch it to five five and a half, I think. 216 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 5: But you know, it's not like bow Nicks lights the 217 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 5: world on fire on a weekly basis and is one 218 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 5: of the elite quarterbacks in the league. So yeah, I 219 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 5: think Denver has a chance. But other injuries to monitor. 220 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 5: Patriots are still hardened not to crack because we just 221 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 5: don't the data set that we have, and we won't. 222 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 5: If they win this game, they're gonna going to the 223 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 5: super Bowl with the easiest stretch in the in playoff 224 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 5: history and the easiest stretch in regular season history that 225 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 5: we've ever seen. So but yeah, the Broncos have a chance. 226 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 5: It's it's one football game with an oblong ball, and 227 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 5: they're gonna be playing at home against still a young team. 228 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I agree, I think that their 229 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 3: chances aren't great, but historically playing in Denver in the 230 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 3: postseason has given the Patriots fits. And I also feel 231 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 3: a little bit better that he's like the jar. It's 232 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 3: not going to be traveling to Mile High. 233 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 4: He lives there. 234 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 3: It's not something that he doesn't deal with every day. 235 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 3: The Patriots are going there. If like it was the 236 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: other way around and I was a backup quarterback who 237 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 3: hasn't been training in altitude going to play a playoff 238 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 3: game essentially off the couch, I'd probably have a. 239 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 4: Few more worries. But history kind of likes Denver here regardless. 240 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 5: I will also say it's like a so two things 241 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 5: you have. Now all of the pressure is on New England, right, Yeah, 242 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 5: so before for you were going on the road, they 243 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 5: would have been underdogs, and you're like, all right, if 244 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 5: we win this game, we're going to the Super b 245 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 5: It's not that much pressure on the Patriots. But now 246 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 5: you're playing Jared Stidham like, if you lose this game, 247 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 5: so all the pressure. 248 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 4: Number two, Jared said him in the Super Bowl. 249 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 5: This is a kitchen sink. Kitchen sink game. Yeah right, 250 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 5: So number one. You see this when in other sports, 251 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 5: when like your star player, your point guard is out, 252 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 5: everyone else, you know, tends to rise up. But more importantly, 253 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 5: from a play from a play calling perspective, from a 254 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 5: schematic perspective, like you're going to get they have to 255 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 5: be super creative, everything that you've ever thought of, from 256 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 5: Peyton's perspective, Joseph's perspective, you're going to get here. So 257 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 5: from a you know, Patriots perspective, trying to prepare for 258 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 5: what they're going to see, you know that it might 259 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 5: be proved a little bit more difficult. So we'll see 260 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 5: if Denver can use that uncertainty to their advantage. Now, 261 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 5: the Patriots defense, I have to give them credit. Now, 262 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 5: they played Stroud in an injured Texans offense and then 263 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 5: you know a Chargers offense with the no offensive line, 264 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 5: but you have to give them credit for some of 265 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 5: the plays that they've made. The looks they do change 266 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 5: up their looks very well disguised things. And now their 267 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 5: run defense is much better now that they're healthier at 268 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 5: linebacker with Milton Williams. I mean, the Houston can do 269 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 5: anything on the ground. The Chargers can do anything on 270 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 5: the ground. And you just saw the splits early in 271 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 5: the season. Their run defense was dominant late in the 272 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 5: season it created with the injuries. Well, now they're healthy again, 273 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 5: I do think so. I'm not sure that the reason 274 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 5: I bring that up is you have a backup quarterback 275 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 5: and a good defense at home, so you might say, like, 276 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 5: let's lean on the run game. But that might be 277 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 5: a little bit difficult here, which could throw another wrench 278 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 5: into it. 279 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 4: I have a way too big of a look ahead. 280 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 3: But if Sean Peyton wins a Super Bowl with Drew 281 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 3: Brees and wins a Super Bowl with Jared Stidham, does 282 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 3: he become one of the goats? 283 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: Can we table that until we have two weeks to talk. 284 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 3: About Jared I said, I said it was too big 285 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 3: of a look ahead, But what. 286 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 5: Well, there is Sam Donald has an oblique injury, so 287 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 5: there is an outside chance that he injures that more 288 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 5: and we get Donald Super Bowl, Drew Locke revenge game 289 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 5: against Jared Stidham. Yeah, and we'll talk about that for 290 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 5: two weeks. 291 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 4: That would be So America twenty during. 292 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 5: Those two weeks. 293 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 2: The last time, I recall, I mean, one of one 294 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 2: of my fondest memories as a sports better was betting 295 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: against Jared Stidham when he was in the Peach Bowl 296 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 2: against UCF. They were ten point favorites. Fire recall correctly 297 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 2: in that game. Obviously, I went to UCF total homer bet. 298 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 2: I bet the point spread and the money line, and 299 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 2: he folded like a lawn chair. 300 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: And now we get an opportunity to fade him again. 301 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: So full circle moment. 302 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 4: You're not pet of or anything at all. 303 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that was that was the claimed National Championship season. 304 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 2: One thing that I that I did that I feel like, 305 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 2: you know, was perhaps the best way to bet into this. 306 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 2: I don't even know if I'm gonna bet this game. 307 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 2: I took the second the bon Knicks news came out. 308 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 2: I bet the Patriots a plus four to twenty five 309 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 2: to win the Super Bowl, and I'll just take my 310 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 2: chances with whoever they end up against. And we've seen 311 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 2: that number beat up now it's it's been sliced in half. 312 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: So that might just be the way that I look 313 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: at this is. 314 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 5: Let's I'll just say one. 315 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: No, no, no, this was. 316 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 4: He literally just said that. 317 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, but I mean they were they were also 318 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 2: favored going in. 319 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 5: But so they won that game. So obviously the odds 320 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 5: are gonna come down. Yeah, so I'm excited for Ram 321 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 5: Sahawks again, Like I want what I'm going to spend 322 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 5: most of my week doing this week, Like I feel 323 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 5: like Denver, New England, you just have to take a stick. 324 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 5: You could you just like, look I'm passing. I don't know, 325 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 5: or you're just like this is too much of an 326 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 5: overreaction to Bonix being out. I lean the ladder, but uh, 327 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 5: you know, we have all week to dive into two 328 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 5: games the other I really want to dive into Ram Seahawks. 329 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 5: We have two games to golf of. But how the 330 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 5: Rams that last Rams Seahawks meeting where the Rams look 331 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 5: like I bet the Seahawks has got extremely lucky. The 332 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 5: Rams look like the clearly better team in target and 333 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 5: they put up what six hundred yards on that defense 334 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 5: without DeVante Adams. I think Vonta Adams missed that game, 335 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 5: if I recall. So that's what I want to spend 336 00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 5: my time diving into that Rams offense versus Seattle's defense. 337 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 5: So at least that game should be pretty good. 338 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 2: What we need to dive into right now is what 339 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 2: happened with the Buffalo Bills and the Denver Broncos. So 340 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 2: he talked about the Broncos moving forward and whether or 341 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 2: not they still have a chance and the awful two 342 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 2: week look ahead of Jared Stidham potentially in the Super Bowl. 343 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 2: How much of this is on Josh Allen because he 344 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 2: turned the ball over way too much in this game. 345 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 2: Down the stretch, he put on the cape as he's 346 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 2: been doing the last couple of years. We now have 347 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 2: seen the Bills first team in NFL history to lose 348 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 2: by three points or less in the playoffs in three 349 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 2: straight seasons. And then of course you have the controversial 350 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 2: was it a catch? Was it not a catch? With 351 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 2: ja Kwan, McMillan, and Brandon Cook. 352 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: So a lot of. 353 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 2: Different ways to dissect this. Kendra, how much of this 354 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 2: loss do you put on Josh Allen? Do you view 355 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: him differently because of the way that this went down. 356 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 3: I think a lot of it's on Josh Allen, but 357 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 3: it also just kind of comes down to the fact 358 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 3: that when they started this season, they weren't expecting it 359 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 3: to turn out the way that it did. 360 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 4: So it was kind of a little bit. 361 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 3: Of a rebuild situation for them. As much as you 362 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 3: can rebuild when you have a team like they do, 363 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 3: I don't think that they really expect it to be 364 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 3: in the position that they were in, and there was 365 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 3: a lot of pressure on Josh and he just folded 366 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 3: once again, and I kind of do look at him 367 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 3: a little bit different because it was never going to 368 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 3: be any easier for him. It's not like he had 369 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 3: the best team in the world this season, but nobody 370 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 3: really has the AFC Like there is no AFC team 371 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 3: that is just so much better than everybody else right 372 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 3: now that I can discount the loss that they had yesterday. 373 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 3: Denver gave them the opportunity to beat them time and 374 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 3: time again, and he just really, for lack of a 375 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 3: better term at the moment, fumbled it away. And I 376 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 3: do look at him a little bit differently. I don't 377 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 3: look at it differently for crying because people are being 378 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:03,719 Speaker 3: way too mean to him about that. 379 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 4: I would cry as well, So let the boy cry. 380 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 3: But I don't look at him differently for that, just 381 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 3: for how he really kind of seems to crumble in 382 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 3: these big moments. 383 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: I don't blame him for crying either. 384 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 2: He goes through this every year, and now he's got 385 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 2: to wait another year to probably go through it again 386 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 2: next year. It's like, this guy, as rich as he is, 387 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 2: as beautiful as his wife is, and as much as 388 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 2: he'll be entering the Hall of Fame one day, his 389 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 2: career could end up tormented by this the same way 390 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 2: that Dan Marino's was this legendary quarterback that could just 391 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 2: never really get to the mountaintop. 392 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: Was it a catch? Wasn't it a catch? Stucky? And 393 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: how much of this do you put on Josh Allen? 394 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 5: No, it was not definitely not a catch. I mean, 395 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 5: I don't know why people are so confused by it. 396 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 5: There was one clear view where he didn't Here's the 397 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 5: all you have to ask yourself. If he came down 398 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,479 Speaker 5: the way that he did with the ball and then 399 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 5: it hit the ground, it was not going to be 400 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 5: a catch, and it came down into the defender's hands, 401 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 5: so that was clearly one not a catch. I don't 402 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 5: know why people are so confused, although maybe because no 403 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 5: one knows what it catches in the NFL, and they 404 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 5: have different rules all the time, Like there was a 405 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 5: raven Steelers game which ended up costing that could have 406 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 5: cost the Ravens a division earlier this year with Rogers 407 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 5: where they called that same play differently. But no, that 408 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 5: wasn't a catch. I lowann to take some of the 409 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 5: blame he, you know, for some of the turnovers, but 410 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 5: he scored thirty points on the Broncos in Denver, like 411 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,400 Speaker 5: it's the every single every year. By by the way, 412 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 5: the last the previous six playoff games, oun didn't have 413 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 5: any turnovers and they scored thirty. It's the coaching talked 414 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 5: to him McDermot at the end of the half. Some 415 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 5: other decisions in that game were very questionable. And it's 416 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 5: the defense all the time that lets them down these 417 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 5: games and go back and all the Josh Allen playoff losses, 418 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 5: they're always scoring into the thirties. The offense has never 419 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 5: been the issue. It's always the defense and it once 420 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 5: again burned them here. I mean, look who he also 421 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,959 Speaker 5: number one, He was banged up a lot of injuries 422 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 5: on a shore week. He's thrown them a cole hardon 423 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 5: and Brandon Cooks like, come on, like, it's how much 424 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 5: anything Coleman he put it? Yeah, keon Coleman like, it's 425 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 5: been a healthy scratch scoring touchdowns like that. I can't 426 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 5: put too much of the blame on Al and obviously 427 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 5: has to take some for the turnovers, but the defense 428 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 5: has to you're playing the look. I think you have 429 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 5: to give credit to the Broncos too, and you have 430 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 5: to give credit to the bo Nicks and Peyton I 431 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 5: thought had a really good game. I mean they scored 432 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 5: two touchdowns on the two plays that the backups were 433 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 5: in there, and they targeted them right away. And I 434 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 5: mean Darnold Savage shouldn't be in an NFL playoff game, 435 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 5: but the Bills had no other options at one point, 436 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 5: they target him right away, scored a touchdown, backup corner 437 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 5: came in, targeted them late touchdown. So you got to 438 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 5: give credit to Bonnicks. You got to give credit to 439 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 5: Sean Payton and the Broncos offense as well, but a 440 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 5: lot of these losses, it's the coaching and it's the 441 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 5: defense to let the Bills down. I think that was 442 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 5: the case again. But in fairness to be real, you 443 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 5: got to give Alan some some blame for the turnovers 444 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 5: that he has. Yeah, I mean the guy who never 445 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 5: never turns it over in any of his playoff losses before. 446 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 5: So to just put it all on Alan and say 447 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 5: he choked, I don't think he's right. 448 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: I don't think he choked. 449 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 2: I think it was more of a first half meltdown 450 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 2: with the turnovers, and then we saw vintage Josh Allen. 451 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 2: He did miss that it was Dawson Knox over the 452 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 2: middle at one point late in the game. But he 453 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 2: does so much right that it's hard to place too 454 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 2: much of the blame on him. I don't view him 455 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 2: as a guy that shrinks in the playoffs. And I 456 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 2: think that's the way the conversation for a lot of 457 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 2: people is being is being shaped right now, is that 458 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: this is a guy. 459 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: That just can't win the big one. 460 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 2: It's not that he can't, it's that he hasn't and 461 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 2: there's always some weird shit that goes on in the playoffs. 462 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 2: I'm with you, on the catch itself or the non 463 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 2: catch the interception. I thought it was clearly an I 464 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 2: int I do wish they had looked at it longer. 465 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 2: I agree with Sean McDermott's complaint that for all the 466 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 2: things that we spend ten minutes in the review booth four, 467 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 2: it was like. 468 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: Okay, no, that's clearly an interception. 469 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 2: Let's move on with our lives and the biggest moment 470 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 2: of the season for both of these teams. But there's 471 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 2: a clear difference between what we saw in that situation 472 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: and on a lot of folks on social media are 473 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 2: trying to compare it to DeVante Adams and and him 474 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 2: having possession and then having the ball ripped away by 475 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears today. 476 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 1: I think the sas. 477 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 5: Adams caught him was down is and he hit the 478 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 5: ground like yeah, I don't people are get I don't 479 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 5: know why people are so confiused comparing those two. 480 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 2: I think it's an easy still shot to compare. But 481 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,919 Speaker 2: I just my only complaint is that they should have 482 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 2: looked at the Brandon Cook situation longer. They were way 483 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 2: too fast to just breeze passed it and then and 484 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 2: let's keep the game going. And I'm usually anti review, 485 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 2: but in this situation, I felt like they expedited that 486 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 2: situation in a way that they should have not. Uh, 487 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 2: you guys want to get to some goats and wats, Kendra, who. 488 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 3: You got I'm actually going to do? We talked about 489 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 3: most of my goats. Josh Allen and the Texans being 490 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,120 Speaker 3: on their way to Cancun was my goat. But as 491 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 3: we were sitting here, I just remembered that my fantasy 492 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 3: football group put down a thousand We won like a 493 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 3: gift card for a thousand dollars worth of a spread 494 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 3: at Hooters in Saugust, Massachusetts for the AFC Championship game 495 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 3: like four months ago, having. 496 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 4: No idea that it would be the Patriots. So I'm 497 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 4: going to. 498 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 3: Watch the Patriots Broncos game Hooters and Saugus, Massachusetts. 499 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 4: So that's my goat. 500 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 6: We have a thousand dollars where the wings booze all 501 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:52,360 Speaker 6: the stuff. 502 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 4: I'm going to eat so many freaking chicken wings.

I mighted in buffalo sauce and having 515 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 3: the meat sweats for sure. 516 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: What about you, stucky goat? 517 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 5: Dalton Schultz had is over and he got there despite 518 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 5: playing less than a quarter, So shout out Schultz. I 519 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 5: thought that he was a huge loss for the Texans 520 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 5: offense after that point. And then my wote is Ben 521 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 5: Johnson for all those the short yardage play calling just 522 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 5: killed that game in the flow of it. 523 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:49,439 Speaker 6: Uh. 524 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 5: Luckily it ended up being a great game, but for 525 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 5: most of that game, I mean Bears rams and it 526 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 5: was like a snoozer for most of the game. So, uh, yeah, 527 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 5: those are my my goats and wotes, and I guess 528 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 5: I should say, actually my wote will be the forty 529 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 5: nine ers special teams. I mean that that game was 530 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 5: over on the opening kick and we just had a 531 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 5: game that was unwatchable from that point on after she 532 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 5: took the opening kickback. I didn't even I didn't watch 533 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter. I can't remember the Las playoff game. 534 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 5: I didn't watch every minute of I think. 535 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 2: We all had a sneaky suspicion that that was going 536 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 2: to be when the corpse officially rotted for the San 537 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:35,680 Speaker 2: Francisco forty nine ers. That spread was just Kyle Shanahan respect. 538 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 2: That's all that was. 539 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 5: But you also have did Darnald uncertainty all week with 540 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,959 Speaker 5: Dale Bleak, which but the Niners just couldn't come up 541 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 5: with anything. But once you fall behind against that Seattle defense, 542 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 5: its lights out. 543 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 1: My goat is bo Nicks. 544 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 2: I mean, he played great and do and he did 545 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 2: the walk off interview still on one foot. Nobody caught 546 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 2: that until after the fact, adrenaline, probably knowing that his 547 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 2: season was done, and he didn't mention it, talked about 548 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 2: his teammates, talked about the situation, and then hobbled off 549 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 2: the field. I thought that was a really cool look 550 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 2: by bo Nix, A lot of respect for him. 551 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 5: He honestly might not have known it and just thought 552 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 5: he was saying down though, because well, now, yeah, he 553 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 5: knew that he got banned up, but he wouldn't He 554 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 5: might not have known aw sears wasn't. I mean adrenaline, 555 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 5: I'm sure in that situation end of the Games is 556 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 5: high for an athlete as you'll ever see. 557 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 3: So I broke my ankle and didn't know for like, 558 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 3: like I thought that I had just rolled it for 559 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 3: a couple of hours and in the middle of the 560 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 3: night it like doubled up in size. It like took 561 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,719 Speaker 3: a while for me to feel it. I'm not an athlete. 562 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 3: I didn't break my ankle the same way he did. 563 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 3: I'm just saying it took me a while to feel it. 564 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 3: So I with the adrenaline and everything, I wouldn't be 565 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 3: surprised because I woke up at three o'clock in the 566 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 3: morning and like was like, I need to go to 567 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 3: the hospital right now. 568 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, I've tore my acls, but both my acls ripped 569 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 5: a part of me and actually it didn't hurt the time. 570 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 5: As weird as that is, but after different story. But yeah, 571 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 5: I mean, how of a perform Knicks deserves a ton 572 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,400 Speaker 5: of credit for his performance. 573 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, well I would have been in tears, so go 574 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: for me. 575 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 2: Well, I'm gonna. I guess, I mean c J. Stroud 576 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 2: third time in the divisional round. He has a grand 577 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 2: total of one touchdown pass and four interceptions. And by 578 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 2: the way, that entire stat accumulation all occurred today, hadn't 579 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 2: done anything prior to this average margin of defeat fifteen 580 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 2: points for CJ. Stroud. I mean, he's he was so 581 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: bad in these last two games. I know that it's 582 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 2: it's kind of like hot take talk radio stuff. I 583 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 2: would seriously be questioning is this the guy that we 584 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 2: need to be moving forward with? With how bad he 585 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 2: has been awful in these situations? Just a complete meltdown. 586 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, they had serious conversations about if they want what 587 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 5: they want to do a quarterback, I have a championship 588 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 5: caliber defense. And mean, I get that they had the 589 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 5: injuries on offense too, but Stroud did not play anywhere 590 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 5: close to good enough today. And look, Drake may should 591 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 5: say he's got to send gift baskets to Herbert and 592 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 5: Stroud because Drake may is not I mean, he has 593 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 5: six fumbles in two games, but the quarterbacks have been 594 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 5: so bad against him. There's just no talk about Drake 595 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 5: may So but Stroud. It was ugly like some of 596 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 5: the throws he was missing were bad to throw where 597 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 5: he just threw it up in the air to nobody. 598 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 5: I mean, you can't make that throw in the. 599 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 3: Playoffs, Josh Allen like toss back weird, like flick yesterday. 600 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 4: I needed to talk about that. What the hell was that? 601 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 2: And that's part of the reason why he's not blamed 602 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 2: free And while that didn't necessarily go on the. 603 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 3: War, maybe one of the worst decisions I've seen in 604 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 3: the postseason, like recency bias maybe, but that was I 605 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 3: literally said out loud, what the fuck was that? 606 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 5: No, the worst decision is was strout today and then 607 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 5: to pick to pick six like that that throw had 608 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 5: he just said that's it and just threw it up 609 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 5: in the air like down, like take the sat there. 610 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 3: You're gonna watch all of these games back tomorrow. 611 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 5: I will never watch that Texans Patriots game. 612 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 4: I can't wait.

Both teams average like three and 615 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 5: a half yards per play, neither got the two hundred 616 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 5: and fifty. 617 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 4: Yards turnovers turnovers. 618 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 2: I feel bad for Kendra that she has to do 619 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 2: sports talk in the town that's gonna pretend like schedules 620 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 2: don't matter. 621 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 4: It has been a calling point all week long. 622 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 3: People, you know, the old guys from like Medford or like, 623 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 3: you play the schedule that's in front, Like. 624 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 5: Who cares? You an easy schedule? That's the dream. I 625 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 5: would love for my team to have the easiest schedule 626 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 5: in the NFL. Play nobody, go to the super Bowl? 627 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: People? 628 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 5: Why are people so offended that you don't play anyone? 629 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 5: That should be the goal, play backup quarterbacks every week? 630 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 5: Just win, go to the super Bowl? Who cares? No 631 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 5: one's going to remember fifteen years from now they played 632 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 5: nothing but backups all year. But it's okay for people, Well, 633 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 5: like what do you Yeah, you'll definitely point out that 634 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 5: you played nobody. It's statistical fact that you played the 635 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 5: easiest schedule of any team over the past twenty five years. 636 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 5: And it's also an undeniable fact that you play nothing 637 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 5: but backups every single week. So like, it's okay to 638 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 5: point it out. But if I was a Patriots fan, 639 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 5: who cares? And why do you care? If other people 640 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 5: are pointing it out. 641 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 2: We're gonna keep it rolling in a moment, But first 642 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 2: I'm gonna toss it to Kendra for a word about 643 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 2: our partners at DraftKings. 644 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 6: The Favorites podcast is sponsored by DraftKings sportsbook and in 645 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 6: partnership with DraftKings, our listeners get a great off for 646 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 6: right now.

Or I believe you asked, 666 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: what was the worst conference championship game that we've ever seen? 667 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 2: Perhaps in the lead up to it? I went back 668 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 2: to dig through see if I could come up with 669 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 2: an answer for you. How about nineteen ninety six the 670 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers taking on the Indianapolis Colts. It was Neil 671 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 2: O'Donnell versus Jim Harbaugh. It wound up being a great game, 672 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 2: but in terms of the lead up to it, very 673 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 2: similar to what we're getting here. 674 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 5: Well, we had Foles Keenum not too long ago. I 675 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 5: will I will say if you're looking for yeah, I 676 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 5: mean this AFC Championship game. I was saying that it 677 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 5: should be on like ESPN News, Nickelodeon, Flying Game, the 678 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 5: if you're looking for a long time, I don't even 679 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 5: know if there'll be a number out there. But going 680 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 5: back to the Patriots playing backups Rams beat the Seahawks, 681 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 5: Stafford tears his knee on the kneeling the ball down 682 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 5: at the end of the game. Jimmy g super Bowl MVP. 683 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 5: If I could find a number on it, I'll look 684 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 5: at it. But in all seriousness, Patriotson, you'll have a 685 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 5: chance to prove it, I think against starters in the 686 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 5: Super Bowl. And then you can shut everyone up. 687 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 3: If I saw you go viral yesterday, hate it on 688 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 3: the Patriots schedule, stucky, don't you worry here. 689 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 5: It's it just pointing out facts. I don't know why 690 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,879 Speaker 5: people get so upset about it, Like it's it's it's 691 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,760 Speaker 5: okay to be the soft schedule. 692 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 4: Done that to me, and I was like, this is awesome. 693 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 5: If you don't like teams drew, if you're not gonna 694 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 5: like win your division, you're not gonna make the playoffs. 695 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 5: If you're a fan of the team you want to 696 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 5: finish in the last you can get a fourth place schedule, 697 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 5: improve your odds of getting a better record, improving your 698 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 5: playoff positioning. The goal should be to have an easy schedule. 699 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 5: And like, if you're think about it, you bet on 700 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 5: a team and then it comes out that their quarterback 701 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 5: is out, you're happy. You should be happy that you're 702 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,280 Speaker 5: playing backups. It's crazy. 703 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, especially when you've already won a million Super Bowls. 704 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 2: I guess you know. It's not like you're trying to 705 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 2: prove yourself. 706 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 4: Never enough here, it's never enough. 707 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 2: I'm still sick that Mike Turrico welcomed people to the 708 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 2: broadcasts in the wild card round and said the Patriots 709 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 2: back in the playoffs, as the kids say, it's been 710 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 2: a minute, Like fuck you. 711 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 4: The people here are so entitled. 712 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 3: Like there's some three year old right now who's only 713 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 3: experienced one title and it was the Celtics. 714 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 4: Like, oh no, oh, seven. 715 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,919 Speaker 3: Year olds have had like three titles since I've been here. 716 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 3: That's insane. 717 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, highly entitled. 718 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 2: All Right, we're gonna spend a lot of time on 719 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 2: these games on Tuesday and Thursday, so let's just quick 720 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 2: read on either one. On either one of these games, 721 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 2: are either of you rushing to the window to bet 722 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 2: the Seahawks, Rams Pats or Broncos. Kendra, we'll start with you. 723 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 2: The ans or no is acceptable in this particular situation. 724 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, I kind of like the Broncos to cover this 725 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 3: number for reasons that I kind of that I already said, 726 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 3: just because if that we saw what the Patriots did 727 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 3: today and struggling against a good defense. I think if 728 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 3: the Broncos can attack them in a similar way and 729 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 3: make Drake May uncomfortable and make him turn the ball 730 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 3: over like that, and they can get a little bit 731 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 3: more lucky. 732 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 4: I expect them to probably run. 733 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 3: The ball a lot more op be as dangerous as C. J. 734 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 3: Stroud was at times today. Maybe they could keep that 735 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 3: a little bit closer. 736 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 4: So the five and a half I don't hate. 737 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 3: And then the total for the Seahawks game, there's a 738 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 3: forty seven and a half out there, forty eight and 739 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 3: a half. I feel like there's probably gonna be points 740 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,240 Speaker 3: scored in this game because the Seahawks have a great defense, 741 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 3: but we know that the Rams can score, and we 742 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:49,840 Speaker 3: know that the Seahawks can put up points. 743 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: Well about you stuck. 744 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 5: On the number, I lean Broncos right now, but running 745 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 5: to bet at no, it's a five and a half, 746 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,840 Speaker 5: You're in like a dead zey And so where I 747 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 5: don't know where this number is going to go? I 748 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 5: really don't. So like this's there's a lot of uncertainty. 749 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 5: So and like it's a huge game. Public can have 750 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,399 Speaker 5: a say in these on like a regular season game, 751 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 5: just because the volume is so big, and if there's 752 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 5: not you know, especially if there's not like strong sharp 753 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 5: money opinions, I don't know, it's just going to be 754 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 5: a wave of this is the Pats who cover all 755 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 5: the time against backups playing another backup and uh you 756 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 5: know Stidham stinks and then could we get a six? 757 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 5: Like there's no downside of waiting and then this ticks down? 758 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 5: Uh so, like I think it's worth just seeing where 759 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 5: this line goes. So but I definitely would lean Broncos 760 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 5: at the current price. And what's Seahawks two. 761 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: That, Yeah, that's I'm. 762 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 5: Not running yet. I got to dive into that in 763 00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 5: the RAMS. 764 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 2: I I was gonna say Seattle minus one and a 765 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 2: half early bird got the worm. I did not, So 766 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:08,360 Speaker 2: I will have to reassess that as we jump around 767 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 2: some key numbers there. But I don't know how you 768 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 2: could look at Seattle this weekend and not come away 769 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 2: from the weekend saying that that looks like your Super 770 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 2: Bowl sixty champion. I know that San Francisco is all 771 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:22,920 Speaker 2: sorts of banged up, but when you look at all 772 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 2: three levels offense, they can kill you. In the past 773 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 2: game with JSN run game. They've got two studs special teams. 774 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:37,760 Speaker 2: Shaheed is playing at a high level defense. They've got 775 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,760 Speaker 2: probably the best left right there with the Denver Broncos. 776 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 1: So it in terms of. 777 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 2: Who I see as the best team that is still around, 778 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 2: it's the Super Bowl favorite right now in the Seattle Seahawks. 779 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 2: But I'll have to see if that one settles back down. 780 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 5: I will say your special teams no is no, no, 781 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 5: The Seattle special teams are elite. The Jets, I'm out 782 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 5: of the best special teams in the league this year 783 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 5: the only they did well, but Seattle was right there. 784 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 5: Big special teams advantaged for Seattle in this game. But teams, remember, 785 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,240 Speaker 5: teams are never as good as they look the week before. 786 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 5: So they had a really good matchup against the forty 787 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 5: nine ers and everything just snowballed on San Francisco. The 788 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 5: Seattle offense has sneakily been broken for two months, and 789 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 5: they've had games where they're able to mask it because 790 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 5: they get a bunch of defensive touchdowns special teams touchdowns. 791 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 5: I mean, Darnold threw for one hundred and ten yards 792 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 5: against the Niners. So it's not like we saw this 793 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 5: offense magically fixed. I think even like twelve or seventeen, 794 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,399 Speaker 5: like one hundred and fifteen yards or something. So and look, 795 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,320 Speaker 5: we saw Seattle beat the Rams recently, but the Rams 796 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 5: dominated that game, but of like six hundred yards offense 797 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 5: didn't even have their full compliment of weapons, So I 798 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,439 Speaker 5: think at three i'd have to look at their rams. 799 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 5: But I really want to spend a lot of time 800 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 5: in that game. 801 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 2: And we will do that as a collective coming up 802 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: on Tuesday. Before we get out of here, let's toss 803 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 2: it over to Brandon Anderson for the hot read for 804 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 2: conference Championships next week. 805 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: Hot Wraps who sevent day on ice Rights? Ice Cream? 806 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: How Real. 807 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 7: Championships Sunday? Hot Reid can't say these are the four 808 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 7: teams or quarterbacks we expected heading into the season. A 809 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 7: little different today on the Hot Red than usual. Only 810 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,720 Speaker 7: four teams left, So you gotta get a little creative 811 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 7: with the picks here today. And I'll tell you from 812 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 7: I give you my pick, but I also tell you 813 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 7: why this time you might want to wait just a 814 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 7: bit to place your bet, and that is because we're 815 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 7: going to the AFC, and I mentioned the quarterbacks we 816 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 7: are riding with Jared Stidham and the Denver Broncos plus 817 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 7: five and a half in the AFC Championship game. What 818 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,280 Speaker 7: a sentence. I can't believe we're here. Bonneck's broken ankle 819 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 7: in overtime, Stidham's gonna make his fifth start over Who 820 00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 7: in the world wants to Backstidham here? Of course, if 821 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 7: you've been betting a while, you know that is exactly 822 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 7: when you got to make the play. Start with the line. 823 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 7: The look ahead on this game heading into the weekend 824 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 7: was Denver minus one and a half. That means this 825 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 7: is a seven point swing from Knicks to Stidham, and 826 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 7: that is insane to me. There's no way this is 827 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:24,320 Speaker 7: a seven point drop off at quarterback. That is Josh Allen, 828 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 7: that is Patrick Mahomes type level. 829 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 5: Stidham. 830 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 7: We don't know a lot about him, but it's not 831 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 7: like Knicks is anywhere near that company. I was already 832 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 7: pretty low on Knicks anyways. I personally make this maybe 833 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 7: two points, maybe a field goal, something in that range. 834 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 7: Nothing even remotely close to seven. Even crazier is I 835 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 7: actually thought about betting Denver before this weekend on this line. 836 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 7: I had Denver overfield goal before the Knicks injury, so 837 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 7: Zoo might have been on the matchup. Both teams a 838 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 7: bit unproven as we know, both teams maybe a bit 839 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 7: fraudulent on this season, but it doesn't matter. They're here 840 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 7: and now you beat who's in front of you. Denver 841 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 7: does have the unit I trust the most, its defense, 842 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 7: and I like the matchup here some things for Denver 843 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 7: to watch for all the focus will be on Stidham, 844 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 7: but look at that defense, elite, elite pass pressure, one 845 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 7: of the best in the league. And we've seen Patriots 846 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 7: young offensive line really struggle both against the Texans and 847 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,880 Speaker 7: the Chargers. That offense has not been that great and 848 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 7: either these matchups not super impressive. Denver's corners are really 849 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 7: good and importantly, Denver is the number one defense limiting explosives. 850 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 7: That is where the Patriots live. They have not been 851 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 7: as good matriculating up and down the field, especially in 852 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 7: the playoffs. They rely on those big plays number one 853 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 7: explosive in the league, number one explosive passing. If Denver 854 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 7: can take away those big plays or limit them, keep 855 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,720 Speaker 7: things close, that's your underdog formula to give you a shot. 856 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:53,799 Speaker 7: Patriots defense, I know they have looked good but here's 857 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 7: a big swing for them. Look at the Chargers, look 858 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 7: at the Texans. What do they have in common? Offensively? 859 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 7: Terror offensive line, Denver is one of the best offensive 860 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 7: lines in the entire league. So that's a huge swing. 861 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:07,719 Speaker 7: I'm gonna make things look a lot different on that 862 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 7: side of the ball. And an important stat here, Patriots 863 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 7: have been one of the worst teams in the league 864 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 7: in the red zone offense and defense both bottom five, 865 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,720 Speaker 7: Denver top five there. So again, that is a spot 866 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 7: where if you're the underdog, one big stop, one big 867 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 7: score when it's unexpected, can really swing things. Conference Championship weekend, 868 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 7: you want to back the one seed since two thousand 869 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 7: and six, twenty one and five straight up are the 870 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:37,359 Speaker 7: one seeds by over ten points a game, twenty four 871 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 7: percent of the money line. And here's a few more 872 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 7: stats for you among those games twelve and three straight 873 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 7: up against the two seed. Both of our matchups are sorry, 874 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 7: the AFC matchup obviously features that one and five in 875 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 7: one straight up as anything under a field goal favorite. 876 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 7: Obviously well underfield goal favorite here, huge underdogs at home, 877 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:04,479 Speaker 7: think about this, Jared's didham to me? Instead of bone nicks? 878 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:09,240 Speaker 7: You're looking at Denver being more like Pittsburgh now, worse offense, 879 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:11,760 Speaker 7: not great I don't want to back Pittsburgh too much. 880 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 7: But great defense, great coaching at home, underdog script, chance 881 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,879 Speaker 7: to win. That's what we're looking at. Here did them 882 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 7: in the Broncos plus five and a half at home? Now, 883 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 7: I said at the top, you may want to wait. 884 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 7: So here's the spot for that four points. Five points 885 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 7: kind of a dead zone for the most part in 886 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,320 Speaker 7: this range. So if you wait and the line moves 887 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 7: a half a point or a point, you're probably not 888 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:39,959 Speaker 7: losing much. But this is slowly moving up already. And look, 889 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 7: everyone's gonna want to bet the Patriots. People think this 890 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 7: is a fate accompany. I think we probably hit six. 891 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 7: We could even push six and a half or seven. 892 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 7: Those are key numbers. You definitely want to wait and 893 00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 7: grab that if you can. So we're making the hot 894 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 7: red pick. I'm giving you Denver. They're the side. I 895 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 7: will be ond because this is an insane number, but 896 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 7: you may get a better number if you wait just 897 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 7: a bit into the week. On the other side of 898 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:06,760 Speaker 7: the bracket, NFC Awesome Division, a rematch between the league's 899 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 7: two best teams, both games we've saw this season were great. 900 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 7: I don't know yet who wins that one, but here's 901 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 7: what I do know. I'm gonna like whoever wins that 902 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 7: one in the Super Bowl. So last couple of months, 903 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 7: I've had these two teams Rams and Seahawks first or 904 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 7: second in either order in my power ratings, lapping the 905 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 7: field multiple tiers ahead of the field. I have them 906 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 7: at least three points better than any other team on 907 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 7: a neutral and I don't exactly have Denver or New 908 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 7: England third in my power ratings. I actually make either 909 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:37,280 Speaker 7: NFC team at this point at least a seven point 910 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 7: favorite against Denver and about six against New England as well. 911 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 7: So all the better here on this bet. If we 912 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 7: think Denver is live at home, you get to face 913 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 7: Jared's did them in a super Bowl in that case, 914 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 7: But I'm gonna like the NFC team in the Super Bowl, 915 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 7: And at most books you can just bet that NFC 916 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 7: to win the Super Bowl minus two twenty. At our 917 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 7: sponsored DraftKings, that's the bet here. My math makes the 918 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 7: NFC about a six and a half point favorite right now. 919 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 7: Given the teams we've got left, that would be around 920 00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 7: a minus three hundred money line about seventy five percent 921 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 7: minus two twenty. We're getting about sixty nine percent, so 922 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 7: a little bit of edge in our favor there. Hopefully 923 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 7: you played this this weekend. My bet we gave out 924 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:22,760 Speaker 7: on the podcast Seattle money Line, Rams money line plus NFC. 925 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 7: We got this at plus two twenty. Now we're getting 926 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 7: it out at minus two twenty, still odds in our 927 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 7: favorite And if your book doesn't have this, you can 928 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 7: build this by yourself. Take your bet split in a 929 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,720 Speaker 7: half Seattle to win the Super Bowl plus one sixty 930 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 7: Rams plus two twenty five. You just bet both of 931 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 7: those together. You've built this bet at about minus two 932 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 7: twenty five and you're really not losing much on the 933 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 7: bet there. So that is today's hot read NFC to 934 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 7: win the Super Bowl minus two twenty in part because 935 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 7: Denver is live. Jared Stidham plus five and a half 936 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 7: home with the Broncos. That is our championship game hot read. 937 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 2: That'll do it for us here this evening.
