Where he is. 6 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 1: I assume maybe he had something happened, maybe in the 7 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: mess hall at the penitentiary and he's in the hole. 8 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: That's what I'm gonna go with Patrick Claiban here as well. 9 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: If I haven't mentioned with Greg ros at all, what's up, guys, 10 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: I like to imagine him having fun.

If 16 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: he sets his mind to something, he can achieve it. 17 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: And I could see him burrowing through a prison wall 18 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: over the course of twelve years. I could see it. Greg. 19 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: Before we get into everything, we got a lot to 20 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: get it to get to here.

What can he not do? Let's get 54 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: to Thursday night football though. As we begin our charge 55 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: through week fifteen, Purdy and a pisto McCaffrey behind him. 56 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: Hers check to the side, he looks right, comes lap 57 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: FROs down the sideline wide. O't at George Kettle dirty 58 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: twenty cuts it side head cuts it, side a kid down, 59 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: said Fred the Great Greg Papa with the call for 60 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: K and b R And something tells me, gentlemen, We're 61 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: gonna keep hearing Greg Papa through January and eating the 62 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: second week of February, because the San Francisco forty Niners 63 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: with the kid at quarterback, still look dominant and the 64 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: final score doesn't look that way over the host Seahawks 65 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: in a game that allowed the Nighters to clinch the 66 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: NFC West with three full weeks to go after this one. Um, 67 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: but Patrick, make no mistake. San Francisco, with this kid 68 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: quarterback who looks very much comfortable with this immense responsibility 69 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: that fell into his lap, they're gonna be tough to beat. 70 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: And and the thing is he's not just managing games. 71 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: This isn't like this is an early season. Oh, there's 72 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: a quarterback controversy in Dallas, Like brock Purty was making 73 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 1: plays and some of it is the Seahawks defense is 74 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: really struggling right now. They could not get off the field. 75 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: But we can't take away from what brock Purty did. 76 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: There was the Travis Homer fumble. The game could have 77 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: been different, hinging on a couple of different things. But 78 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: as as difficult as it was, this is a road 79 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: game for brock Purty, his very first on Thursday night 80 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: in a division like deciding game essentially, and he went 81 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: out there in bold. So I'm not picking against them 82 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: anymore that I've made this mistake two weeks in a 83 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: row and I'm not doing it. I'm done. You pick 84 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: you picked against the Sea against the forty in this game, 85 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: I did. I took. I took Gino at home against 86 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: the rookie quarterback making his first start on the road, 87 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: thinking that maybe Seattle would get off the field one 88 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: time on third down, and they didn't. I'm picking up 89 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: another game on Clay Boon and the game debut standing. 90 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: It's ugly. I wish Seattle had more routes to win 91 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: this game, but they had one, which was get a 92 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: couple of the breaks, play clean football, and make Purty 93 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: look like a rookie, And for a minute in the 94 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: second quarter he did kind of once they went through 95 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: their fifteen place script there there. They did get a 96 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: couple of stops. We find out after the game that 97 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: pretty you know, really couldn't throw the ball this week, 98 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 1: that it was up in the air more whether he 99 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: was gonna make it through this game, you know, because 100 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: of the oblique injury. And they get a couple of stops. 101 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: You mentioned it, but the Seahawks are driving down seven 102 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: three late in the second quarter, hopefully you get a 103 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: field goal there to make it seven six. At halftime, 104 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: Homer has that fumble and it came right after Purdy 105 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: had his worst throw as a pro, right into Quadrie 106 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: Diggs bread basket. Diggs drops it. The Homer fumble, of course, 107 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 1: you know, goes right into uh the forty Niners hands. 108 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: Great play by Drake Greenlaw, who's just playing at an 109 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: all pro level. They return it to the five, so 110 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: Purdy has his worst quarter as a pro, but he 111 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: gets the ball back at the five yard line. They 112 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: run it in. They start the second half with a 113 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: busted coverage where he makes a nice read and goes 114 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: deep instead of taking kind of the check down to McCaffrey. 115 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: But ultimately it's a busted coverage and Purdy is just 116 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: living this amazingly charmed life. And he's got some skills too. 117 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 1: He can throw on the move, and he just is 118 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 1: making this forty Niners team more interesting I think than 119 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: when they had Jimmy Garoppolos. For sure. This is a 120 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: great storyline, and I think I wasn't alone. It was 121 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 1: nice to see the story of what Brock Purdy was 122 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: able to do against Tom Brady in San Francisco. But 123 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: we know the Bucks are kind of a mess this year, 124 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: and you wanted to kind of see more. I could say, now, 125 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: all right, we saw him went on the road in primetime, 126 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: but how will he fare against, you know, a big 127 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: time team. I don't need to. I don't need that. 128 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: I don't think the Purdy is necessarily a guy that's 129 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: going to lead their offense in a way that's the 130 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: way Kurt Warner did for the Rams in ninety nine. 131 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: But I think he's already now shown that this is 132 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: something he's gonna be able to handle. And as we know, 133 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: with the San Francisco offense, you don't need the quarterback 134 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: to be superman. So he's this is kind of a 135 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: perfect set up for him to become one of the 136 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: more memorable stories, UH in a long time if things 137 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: keep going this way. Because you know, they played without 138 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel, one of the most dangerous offensive players of 139 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: the year in the league, and it didn't matter. They 140 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: just took care of business in this game. I think 141 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: the homer fumble was devastating for Seattle. UH. They were 142 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: down seven three with with under two minutes to go 143 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: in the half. You got San Francisco getting the ball 144 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: to start the third quarter, and it's like that was 145 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: the only thing that you cannot do. You can't cough 146 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: it up and and give Purdy in San Francisco a 147 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: quick score. And then sure enough, as Greg says, the 148 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: coverage bust for the second kittle t D and that 149 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: first kittle t D was really impressive and and they 150 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: did a good job Herb Street calling it out the 151 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: way pretty is so under control and you could tell 152 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: he's so comfortable in this offense where um, the past 153 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: looks like it's gonna be a swing one side or 154 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: the other, and he goes through the motions, sucks the 155 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: defense in and then just hits over the middle for 156 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: that first touchdown to Kiddle. So a very encouraging game 157 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: again for Purdy. And yeah, I just that they're in 158 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 1: my pick now. I if I if I had to 159 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 1: pick one team that I think it's going all the way, 160 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,319 Speaker 1: I think I think San Francisco is. Yeah, I think 161 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: they're the team the Eagles, with no disrespect to the Eagles, 162 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: but I just they don't they don't they have that 163 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: kind of vibe, that feeling right now that this is 164 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: a straight jugg or not not that Eagles aren't. I 165 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: understand that it's a little bit of disrespect. It's a 166 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: little bit of this tiny, a tiny bit of disrespect, 167 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: you know the argument if you're Philly. Because I was 168 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 1: breaking it down, I was thinking this forty Islanders defense 169 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: as five Pro bowlers, which is crazy that five on 170 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: one side. Bosses for sure, warners for sure. I think 171 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: green Law should make it at our various Ward locked 172 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: up DK metcalf and really showed himself out and has 173 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: been great all season. And your guy who funga might 174 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: might make it too. That's fine, But the Eagles might 175 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: have that many too, and they have an m v 176 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: P quarterback candidate at quarterback, and so I think that's tough. 177 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: But I think Perdie is not gonna have to do 178 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: as much to your point as Jalen Hurts is gonna 179 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: have to do. I love seeing CMC at one point 180 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: he had thirty of fifty nine touches and there weren't 181 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: like many big plays. It's like a twenty yard run 182 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: in one ten yard pass, but it's just a lot 183 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: of fives, a lot of six. He's showing a lot 184 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: of toughness. But I still wouldn't put them at Philly's level, 185 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: especially because they'll be on the road in that game. 186 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: But it does feel and even though it is presumptuous, 187 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: it's feels like that's the NFC Championship game, like at 188 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: this moment in terms of the way these two teams 189 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: were playing. And yeah, it's it's maybe you're asking Jalen 190 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: Hurts to do more and he's gonna have to do. 191 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: But that's that's been the entire season, right And like, 192 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: is C J g J dropping the pick that Quadre 193 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: Diggs did last night? Right? Is James or James Bradberry 194 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: and Darius Slay not making These are two very good 195 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: teams and something weird could happen. Of course, ball's not around. 196 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: I gotta play the games, but it just it feels 197 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 1: like destiny that these two are going to meet up. 198 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: And as for Seattle, now they're seven and seven and 199 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 1: that they do profile right now as a team that 200 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: peaked too soon. Um, I didn't think Greg. I didn't 201 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: think Gineo, for instance, was terrible. I know that should 202 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: have been a pick six and another terrible roughing the 203 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: passer call. Wipe that away, but I felt this is 204 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: more a buzz saw game where San Francisco's defense is 205 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: just in such a zone right now that every yard 206 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: you just you just you're fighting and scratchy DK metcalf 207 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: I could guarantee he woke up sore this morning. That 208 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: guy is a machine and a b east and and 209 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: you know they just did they gave him nothing. Uh. 210 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett breaks his finger in this game. He's gonna 211 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: miss time. So this could be the end of your 212 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: your pet team Seattle. Lockett's injury really hurts them. It 213 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: sounds like he's gonna miss multiple weeks. They're at Kansas 214 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: City next week. There, you know that that's a big gass. 215 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: So they're probably seven and eight. They finished with two 216 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: home games with the Jets and the Rams. It's another 217 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: tough defense for Gino to go against with lock it out. 218 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: But if you if you won those two games and 219 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: you lost to the Chiefs, you're nine and eight and 220 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: you'll have you'll have a chance maybe to get in. 221 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: But they were Geno didn't play well. He could have 222 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: had two or three picks. Um no one played well. 223 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: It was It really just was crazy to see like 224 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: a team get physically dominated at literally every position. Their 225 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: offensive line, defensive line, linebackers like defensive backs like it 226 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: just felt like they were getting bullied around and it 227 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: was a minor miracle their defense had a chance to 228 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: get a stop to in a one score game at 229 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: the end, because it probably shouldn't have been that close. Uh, 230 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: all right, And after the game by it was a 231 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: T shirt and hat game. As we said, the Niners 232 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: are NFC West champions, and you know this is a 233 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: big rivalry. Obviously Seattle in San Francisco. Um, they have 234 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,839 Speaker 1: a lot of history. As we know. After the game, 235 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, UM have the quote, this isn't our final 236 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: goal by any means, And let me hit the trope 237 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: alert on that one. Um, it's okay. It's okay teams 238 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: to live in the moment a little bit. When you 239 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 1: win a division that that's hard. It's hard to win 240 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: a division. It's hard to win the NFC West. And 241 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: when you're saying things like this isn't our final goal, 242 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: and then you the other one you see all the 243 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: time the Eagles use this on this is just the 244 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: first step. We know, we know, guys, just savor it 245 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: because we're not we're not presuming that you think that 246 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: the season is now a success. We like the Niners, 247 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 1: they almost went to the Super Bowl lash year. We 248 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 1: know this is just the first step for you, guys, 249 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: so don't worry about it. You don't have We're working 250 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 1: under the the the assumption that you want it all. 251 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: I'm just giving letting them know they can have some 252 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: fun and enjoy a moment like this without adding those qualifiers. 253 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: Can you give us, Can you give us the example like, 254 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: let's say your Kyle shanahan, you just hit the podium 255 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: and I'm like, coach, uh, your fourth NFC West championship. 256 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: What's this moment mean to you right now? It's we're 257 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,599 Speaker 1: extremely proud of ourselves. This is something we have to 258 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: save her obviously, because we deserve it. This is something 259 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: that um, we've worked hard for and it's just the 260 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: first step. But we're gonna celebrate on the plane. We 261 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: are going to get drunk on that damn plane because 262 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: we deserve it, and we'll be back to work come Hell. 263 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: They're off till Tuesday. Go crazy this weekend, guys. Kyle 264 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: and the McCarthy like parachutes into the press conference and 265 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: he's like, there will be no drinking on the plane. 266 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: All right, let's check in with the UH live streamers. 267 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 1: They need a name, the streakers, the stream team, the 268 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: stream team. Now you gave me a gift, Patrick, All right, 269 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: here we go. Let's get some commentary from the stream team. 270 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 1: I'm gonna just say one that I'm reading myself. Blue 271 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: Malicious says, No, there must never be there must be 272 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: never ending selemonity at all times. Dan No, I like 273 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: that word. Philip Patch, do you think the forty nine 274 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: could beat the Eagles to go Super Bowl? Well, we 275 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: just had that conversation, Um, and you guys think I 276 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: put a little disrespect on the Eagles. I get that 277 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: Eagles are awesome this year, and they're twelve and one 278 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: and they're gonna have that number one seed. But if 279 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: there's one team that is going to go into Philly 280 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: UH at the end of January and not be afraid 281 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 1: of it, oh man, Nick Bosa, Uh that that front 282 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: seven you just saw Darius Darius us Varius did two 283 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: DK metcalf their physic cool. They're mean, Uh, that's gonna 284 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: be a great game. Everybody, stay healthy, stay healthy. You 285 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 1: go get that two seed, forty Niners. There's still a 286 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: lot to play for there too. They can get that 287 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: two seed from the Vikings. I think they have a 288 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: better than average chance according to most playoff models. Nice Greggy, 289 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: what else, Aaron Jaffa Jaffe? Will the Seahawks make the playoffs? 290 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: In the blink of an eye, there's suddenly on the 291 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: outside looking in, Greg, I will throw it to you 292 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: on this one. Now. Keep in mind, and by the way, 293 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: good job by even though Sunday night football team obviously 294 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: has a bias against my Jets. Good job on the 295 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: flex of Giants commanders, because that's more and more feeling 296 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: like a win and in type game for that team, 297 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: especially with Seattle now going down. Do you think the 298 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: Seahawks still have a path though? Oh? Absolutely, Uh you 299 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: mean having the game in Kansas City, just feeling like 300 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 1: a loss is a killer. You gotta kind of root 301 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: for the Commanders that just take charge of that six spot. 302 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: I mean you could root for them to win against 303 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: the Giants and then both of those other teams collapse. 304 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: It's possible. I think the Giants can fall right out 305 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: of it, and so then the last bot comes down 306 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: to the Lions and the Seahawks. Wait, did you say 307 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: Commanders should take charge of the six spot when you 308 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: had it right there. It was right in front of you, Greg, 309 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: they gotta go ahead and uh take command. The schedule 310 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: for the Lions after this Jets game at Carolina, Bears 311 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: and Packers. I look at all these team schedules and 312 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: it feels like they could win any game, but they 313 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: certainly could lose any game. And so I think nine 314 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: and eight has a realistic chance for Seattle, and then 315 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: depending on who they end up tying with, they do 316 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: have the tiebreaker over the Giants, and they have it 317 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: over the Lions. Right they beat the Lions, So that's 318 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: pretty good stuff. M what else we got? Drunk cow 319 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: of death like that? If the cow if the Cowboys 320 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: go one and done again? Is McCarthy on the hot 321 00:16:54,360 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: sea Clay Bonne, Yes, I think he is. But it's 322 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: it's one of those things, right, if you fire Mike McCarthy, 323 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 1: do you need some sort of agreement with Sean Payton beforehand? 324 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: Is that? Have you already had the conversations with Mickey Loomis. 325 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: I think it's one of those things where if it's 326 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: Sean Payton and if that's reasonable, then yeah, he may be. 327 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 1: He may be gone no matter what. Um. But if 328 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: not then what are you ultimately doing? Are you promoting 329 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: dan Quinn? Like, how do they go about making this 330 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: actual change? And when I say they, it's there's one 331 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 1: man making this decision and me and him aren't necessarily 332 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: on the same wavelength regarding anything. So it's it's tough 333 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: to predict, but I do think he wants John Payton, um, 334 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: And yeah, it's it's probably if they don't go to 335 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: the championship game, uh, and Sean Payton's there, then then 336 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 1: yeah it's over. Which they haven't even made the championship 337 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 1: game in twenty seven years years, So this you know, 338 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 1: at a certain point, Um, you know, urgency for Garra 339 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 1: is gonna come into play here. He's in his eighties now, 340 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: I believe. And and if Peyton's there and there's an opportunity, yeah, 341 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: he just turned eight. Um, I agree. I think they 342 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: cannot limp to the finish line or have another one 343 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: and done. I think I think I'll say this so 344 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: I think if they win a playoff game, I could 345 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: see Jones being satiated enough to see the glass half bull. 346 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: But if they do what they did last year, for instance, 347 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 1: I think Carthi's gonna pay there and they're probably they're 348 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: probably at the NFC South champion and no matter what, 349 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:32,239 Speaker 1: So that's that's a winnable game. You categorical failure through 350 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: where it's like, obviously this could have been remedy by 351 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: better coaching. Again, like it can't that nobody happen again. 352 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: Nobody wants to go on the road to face Sam 353 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: Donald in January, trust me. So hopefully for they're if 354 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: they're lucky, they get Tom Brady obviously, but we'll see 355 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: how it all shakes out. Finally, is that trauma question. 356 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: How much of a chance do we give the Panthers 357 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: of winning the NFC South. The remaining schedules a lot 358 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 1: easier than on the Bucks. We talked about this on 359 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: UM the Thursday preview show. It's there for the it's 360 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: there for the Panthers, um, just like we're talking about 361 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: the Jaguars with the Titans. Sorry Graver, but let's see 362 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: what they got. They home against Steelers, that's you gotta 363 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: that's a gotta have a game. Then your home against 364 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: Lions gotta gotta have. You gotta win three or four. 365 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: So home Steelers home Lions at Bucks at STS, I 366 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: think three or four gives you the division. Can they 367 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: do that? Especially if you win the two division games. Yeah, 368 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: you gotta win the two road division games there three 369 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: and one in the division, they would make them five 370 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: and one in the and if they beat the Bucks, 371 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 1: they sweep that season series, so they would then have 372 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: the tiebreaker. But who knows. We've were past the point 373 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: where we can even presume whatever happens at Week eighteen 374 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: has the Bucks in a tie. I mean they can 375 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: completely free fall at this point. The way they've played 376 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: this season. Oh, it ain't pretty, but it's compelling. The 377 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: next Panthers win gets Steve Wilkes more wins this season 378 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: than any season that Matt Rule had. That is, he's 379 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: a very compelling interim coach. Getting the label ripped off 380 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: guy for sure, especially if they finished strong. All right, 381 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: here we go every time, every time, Greg Rosenthal, where 382 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: we can't start until we hear the the legendary hero 383 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: I uh, I love hearing that from the bond god 384 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 1: Dan Handis. That was a suggestion, by the way, from 385 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: one of the three word title got a bonga. By 386 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: the way, the great Lakisha Jackson Westling is in town, 387 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: staying at Zeuser Manor, and it's a. It's a joy 388 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: to have a Westling uh in the building with me. 389 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: Well that that makes me think of a time on 390 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: this podcast when I add you know, Mark was it 391 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: was to my left. Uh, Chris Wesleyan was right next 392 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 1: to him. You you, of course we're on the other corner, right, Dan, 393 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: And now I'm now forgetting where everyone sat. And I 394 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: made the proposal two make a regular season by the 395 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 1: NFL two games a day exactly for a hundred and 396 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: twenty eight days straight. I had worked it all out 397 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 1: and I wanted that to be it. I just wanted 398 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,479 Speaker 1: more football at all times. So I bring that up 399 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: as someone that is clearly loyal to football, before saying 400 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: would you be in charge of I'm sorry, that's what 401 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: to jump in, but not need. Yeah, yeah, you don't. 402 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: You don't, you don't jump We do not need three 403 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: games on Christmas. We don't need it. We don't need 404 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 1: three games on Christmas. We don't even need one. But 405 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: I get it. The NBA owns Christmas, and you want 406 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: to mess with them, and you want money, But some 407 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: things are more important than money. Imagine Christmas in Chicago. 408 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 1: Dan and Patrick, the daughter of Patrick Dardy, writer at 409 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: Road a world asked her dad if she can open 410 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: her one final present, and he says, oh no, I'm sorry. Uh. 411 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: Aj Dillon has a thigh injury before this Dolphins Packers game, 412 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 1: and a lot of people are stacking Dillon with Rogers 413 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: and Romeo Dobbs this week. Sorry, honey, Oh no, let's 414 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: please stop crying. Imagine Christmas in Cincinnati where some far 415 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 1: flong relative of Chris Collinsworth can't ask him for a 416 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 1: job on the highest rated television show in the country 417 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: because Chris has gone announcing game between Coy and the Bucks. Like, 418 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: enough with Colt McCoy, enough with the Bucks, we do 419 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: not need them on Christmas. Imagine Christmas in Dallas where 420 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: Tony Romo's child asked Mommy where daddy is and she 421 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: says he's in Los Angeles announcing Broncos Rams and and 422 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: his child says, don't they have a combined record of 423 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: nine and fifteen entering week fifteen? Uh? And she says, yes, 424 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: that's true, but the game looked like it was good 425 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: before the season. Well, at least, mommy, we can think 426 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: about their draft picks and which top five pick the 427 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: loser will have. No, honey, they traded their draft picks. 428 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 1: I'm saying this as someone who dropped his own kids 429 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: off at the airport last night. There is no nothing 430 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 1: more depressing than being in L a X traffic on 431 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 1: the way out around midnight after dropping your kids at 432 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: the airport during Chris They didn't even have a flight. 433 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: You just dropped him off at the airport. I need 434 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: I need a distraction more than anyone, and I don't 435 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: want this distraction. I'm loyal to football, but football, you're 436 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 1: in the time out for this Christmas. You're sleeping out 437 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: in the garage for him. Yeah, I thought it was. 438 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: I understand the angle because the ratings will be great. 439 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: They always are. UM, and if you if you want 440 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: to have a Christmas night game, go for it. But 441 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm with you, you know the I've kind of fallen 442 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,479 Speaker 1: out in terms of my NBA fandom, but I always 443 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: enjoyed that the unofficial tip off of NBA on Christmas Day. 444 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: So the NFL said we're coming for that scepter, and 445 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: I don't know it is what it is. I guess 446 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: it is what it is. I don't know what else 447 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,199 Speaker 1: to say, but I'm with you. Yeah, it's UM. We 448 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: would like to have some time. Three is absolutely excessive. 449 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 1: I could deal with one, but three just and maybe 450 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 1: it maybe it's a little bit you know personal. I'm 451 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 1: sure everybody else loves having NFL games to watch available, 452 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: but for those working it it's it's a tough ask. 453 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 1: It's a tough ask on the day. Even for those 454 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: not working, it's it's a lot. And then the fact 455 00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: that the games this year are what their dolphin um 456 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: packers in the morning ten am on the West Coast. 457 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: Then Broncos rams to me that that is a sad 458 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: scene in in uh in Los Angeles in the middle 459 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: of the day, and then Bucks Cardinals to wrap up. 460 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,239 Speaker 1: So I would I would think, why don't we go 461 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: to uh, why don't we take a jump on a plane, 462 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: go to Park Avenue and um, I'll just I'll knock 463 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: on the door and uh, you know who will answer, 464 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: and I'll say, hey, how about we flex? Um? How 465 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: about we flex Christmas? The three Christmas games out And 466 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: the figure will say, Okay, I'm all years. You guys 467 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: have a successful podcast on our platform. What do you 468 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,719 Speaker 1: want to flex in on Christmas Day? And I go, uh, 469 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 1: Jesus family Love. I mean, look, we're all about the 470 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: We're all about the Saturday triple header on NFL Network 471 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: this week. You know, you're getting your Christmas shopping. You're 472 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: coming back, you check part of the game. They your 473 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 1: your home in time for Dolphins bills the nightcap, like 474 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: you're you're coming and going. That's beautiful. But Christmas great. 475 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not going to church like three times 476 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: a week. But I think if we pull the j 477 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 1: C card, it just will have a little bit more like, oh, 478 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,239 Speaker 1: do we have to consider this. I think they considered it, 479 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: and then they scheduled the triple header. I think we're 480 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 1: Jesus making a return and it was scheduled and promoted. Uh, 481 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,400 Speaker 1: they would still flex Jesus out to play three football 482 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 1: games on Christmas. All right, let's move on before we 483 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,159 Speaker 1: don't have a podcast anymore.

But either way, when we 487 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: turned the cameras on, he was not in his prison 488 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 1: cell connor or supposed to be giving us his Christmas Rex. 489 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: We had to push that to Tuesday.

Okay, uh, what is that? Is that? 494 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 1: The is that like the old trell Owens agent thing? Yeah? 495 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: I get it. I mean I I thought about. Yeah, 496 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: using maybe the you know, production assistant that's helping out 497 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: would be a better example, but doesn't quite have the 498 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: same pop as as Tony Romo on the road. One 499 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: of the listeners suggested, as as the commenter's name, the 500 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: stream of a t L, which I really like. That's 501 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: really good stream of I like that. How about this, Greggy, 502 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: This one's for you, Jenna Able. Let's get some Honaka 503 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 1: games in there. One game for eight crazy nights. Oh, 504 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:47,719 Speaker 1: that would be kind of fun. That that speaks more 505 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: to my original scheduling idea, which I'm no longer in 506 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: favor of officially, by the way, the two games a 507 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: day that was. That was before a second child and 508 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: before you know, a lot of more years doing this podcast. Patrick, 509 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 1: you want to pull one from the U the side here? Yeah, Yeah, 510 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: let's see what we got. I'll switch over to throw 511 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: it up well, while Patrick looks justin do you have 512 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 1: one else? Another one teed up Jenna Again, are the 513 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 1: Commanders a good team? They've been last in the division 514 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: almost all season, but they're always top fifteen in the 515 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: power rankings. There you go, Jenna, and have a similar 516 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: record as the Dolphins, but no one talks about them. 517 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: I feel like we talked about the Commanders. We've given 518 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 1: them for a team that as messy as they are 519 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: behind the scenes. Uh, the team itself is pretty hard 520 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: nosed and has played very well uh of late. So yeah, 521 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: And as far as the power rankings go, power rings 522 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: are absurd. Right now there are seven teams if you 523 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: count the Vikings, that makes sense in the first seven slots, 524 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: and even the Vikings I struggle with, and then eight 525 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: through sixteen. You could literally put any of those teams 526 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: eight or any of those teams sixteen, because that's the 527 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: way it feels to me right now. So right now 528 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: I have the Commanders in the top fifteen, but you know, 529 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: it's very fluid the precise power ranking. My question, the 530 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: question I see is from Caleb, and I'm going to 531 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: add an addendum to it for you. Okay, h he wants, 532 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: can you show it? Can you can you hit the 533 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: plus sign and show it? I don't. I don't think 534 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: I can because I'm not. I don't think I have 535 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: that ability to. I don't. I don't actually have the power. 536 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: But what do you got the first coach fired on 537 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: Black Monday? Non interim addition, I will add that Addendon 538 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: who gets fired first? Yeah? Any haven't we already fired everybody? 539 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 1: Hackets going? I think that's with new ownership, with everything 540 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: that's happened with Russell Wilson and the commitment they have 541 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: to him. I'm almost certain Hackett is done, and maybe 542 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 1: even before Black Black Monday, but probably is. You know, 543 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: we find out maybe Sunday into Black Monday would be 544 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: my prediction there. I'm gonna just speak this into existence, Alther, 545 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: this feels cruel, But Dennis Allen speaking into existence, You're 546 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: so mean. Usually I'm not better. They need to change. 547 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: It hasn't worked out at least this year with Dennis 548 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: Allen and the Saints. All Right, what do we got it? Oh? 549 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: It's time now for the Greg Rosenthal Week fifteen injury Minute, 550 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: presented by Akrash. Your lethal poison for rats potent edibles 551 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: for tired moms. That doesn't sound safe. Uh, not safe 552 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: out here for the Patriots, by the way, DeVante Parker, 553 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: you saw that concussion? He looks out. Jacoby Myers, he 554 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: looks out. He's had been recovering from a concussion for 555 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 1: a while. From Andre Stevenson. He looks out rough. Damian 556 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: Harris might be back, and so it might be Christian Barmore. 557 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: Remember him. He used to be good saying his name 558 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: yea for a long time. Uh. Courtland Sutton looks out 559 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: again for the Broncos. Russell Wilson has been trending as 560 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: of this recording, uh, towards coming back from that concussion. 561 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 1: Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd have been at practice. Boyd 562 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: looks more likely to play than Tee Higgins. Both seems 563 00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: like both have a shot. Uh. No trail On Burke's 564 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: practice so far this week. Toron Armstead practiced enough to 565 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 1: make us think he will play this week. Jeff Wilson, 566 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: the running back, looks like a legit game time decision 567 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: on Saturday night. Is not even on the injury report anymore, 568 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: which is nice. Claypool Chase Claypool rather has been out 569 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: of practice after the bye, which is disappointing. No, Lamar, 570 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 1: we know that Huntley as of this recording, is trending 571 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 1: towards uh. Yes, Steelers will not have Kenny Pickett. He 572 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: is doubtful. Officially. Friarmouth has been out of practice, but 573 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be okay. We still don't know 574 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: about the Steelers quarterback. I think it's gonna be a 575 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: little Mason Rudolph time. Corey Davis has been out of practice, 576 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: and as you know, Dan, Mike White has been ruled 577 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: out for this game, and we're getting Zack Wilson back 578 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 1: in our lives. Yeah, this is very interesting, Greggy, and 579 00:31:53,000 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: thank you for that incredibly concise and accurate injury minute. Um. Disappointing, yes, 580 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: because I think Mike White gives the Jets a better 581 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: chance to win than Zack Wilson. I also, I'm kind 582 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: of this part of me from a human being angle 583 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: I didn't like and I said it on Sunday Show. 584 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 1: So this isn't a retroactive hot take that I didn't 585 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: like the way the Jets handled Mike White and putting 586 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: him back on the field, especially after that second hit. 587 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: So at least there's some people in that building and 588 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: the team doctors in this case that said no that 589 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: he especially with the Jets on a short week after 590 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: this against the Jaguars and Thursday night football, you gotta 591 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: let this guy get right. Ribs are tricky. Now, the 592 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: Zack Wilson's side of it is very interesting because while 593 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: I have my doubts on a super high level that 594 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna be able to play the guitar after being 595 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: inactive for three weeks, after what we've seen from him, 596 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 1: it does set up well for him. And in the 597 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: sense that well good and bad. Here's the good at 598 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: home um against a lines defense that has gotten better 599 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: but still can be attacked. You have the fence, uh, 600 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: not scoring a lot of points, but putting up yards, 601 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: so they're the general vibe around the offense is good. 602 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: You have a Bam Knight who has emerged as an 603 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: actual piece in their running game. He wasn't there, uh 604 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: post Briest Hall, when Zach Wilson was still starting, so 605 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 1: you have a little more structure in the running game. 606 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: So just like we talked about setting up well for 607 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: Mike White when you looked at the schedule ahead, now 608 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: Wilson is going to get an opportunity here. This isn't 609 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: going to Buffalo on short notice for Zach Wilson. He 610 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: should be able to move the ball. Uh. The downside, boys, 611 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: is the Jet fans are over Zack Wilson. The Jet 612 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: fans wanted to see Mike White in this game. The 613 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: Jets fans know how important is a gotta have it 614 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 1: Sunday for the Jets. And if Wilson is doing the 615 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: Wilson stuff, which is scattershot, arm eyes, looking at the 616 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: pass rush, scrambling to nowhere's Ville throwing, He's gonna get 617 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: booed out of that building by the second quarter. So. Uh, 618 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: you want to be a pro quarterback, You want to 619 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: be an NFL guy, You want to get paid big 620 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: money and be a big star. Uh. It comes with pressure, 621 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 1: and that boy is under an immense amount of pressure 622 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: on Sunday. It would it would help if he were better. Um, 623 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,880 Speaker 1: I don't know that. I don't know that the pressure 624 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: is the problem. The problem might be he might just 625 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: not be good. I don't know. If he'll face a 626 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: lot of pass fresh pressure. We'll see. Lions defense has 627 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: been playing better and the Jets offensive line has been poor. 628 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: When Zack Wilson's under you know, pressure from the defense. 629 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: That's where he crumbles when he's protected. That offense just 630 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: gets guys open, and he's come. You know, he can 631 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: find enough open guys if he has the time to 632 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: do it. And so I tend to I tend to 633 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: spend it positive at least just for Zack Wilson in 634 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: that he'll probably he'll almost certainly be better than the 635 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 1: last time you saw him, and he'll probably play okay. 636 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: And and whether they win or not, I don't know, 637 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: but I do hesitate to uh it is, you know, 638 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: got to have it Sunday. But I am already leary 639 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: of a lot of like their seasons over or not 640 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:01,919 Speaker 1: for a lot of these teams on Sunday, because these 641 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 1: A f C races at the end are full of 642 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: mediocre teams that are gonna lose games and they're not 643 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,839 Speaker 1: gonna I'll rip off four no there, you know down 644 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: the stretch like three and one's gonna get it done, 645 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: and two and two might get it done for some 646 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: of these teams ultimately, because I don't trust any of 647 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 1: them to win four straight. Yeah, And my buddy Howie 648 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:28,399 Speaker 1: in New York texted me, is like, you know, Mike 649 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: White is definitely coming back in the lineup as soon 650 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: as he's able to write and I and I thought 651 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: to myself, that's actually an interesting question, because let's say 652 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,359 Speaker 1: let's spend truly optimistically and the Jets put up four 653 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,439 Speaker 1: hundred yards against the lines with Zack Wilson. I think 654 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: internally they'd be clicking their heels and and they would 655 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,799 Speaker 1: stick with Zach Wilson and hope they could build on 656 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 1: that because they have such a huge investment in him. 657 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:56,399 Speaker 1: So I think Wilson now um has a huge opportunity 658 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: now things. It feels like I felt like all was 659 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: lost for him this season and he wasn't going to 660 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 1: see the field again. Now he gets an opportunity, and 661 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 1: I think if he plays well, they might even run 662 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 1: run with him. I'm not sure if they would, but 663 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 1: I think if he plays really well, there will be 664 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 1: a lot of internal pressure to keep him in the 665 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: line up just because of what he is the number 666 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: two overall picks. So let's say Zach Wilson in his 667 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 1: last few games has five touchdowns, two interceptions, and complete 668 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: his passes. Would you want to bring Mike White back 669 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: and Zach Wilson, Like, would you pay because Mike White's 670 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: going to be a free agent? DN Like, would would 671 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 1: you want them both back? If so Zach throws five 672 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 1: touchdowns the rest of the year, you said five touchdowns 673 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: two the rest of the year. Yeah, I don't think 674 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: that's gonna be enough for me. I would in that 675 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: case let White go or try to move Wilson in 676 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: a trade and bring in one of these high, high 677 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 1: level veterans. Um And yeah, I know I'm a little high. 678 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 1: I know car is not the most popular guy, but 679 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,959 Speaker 1: I feel like he would be a vast upgrade over 680 00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:00,040 Speaker 1: White or Wilson personally. But I really I would be 681 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 1: very surprised if this come August the Jets don't have 682 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 1: a high profile new quarterback that's a veteran. That's That's 683 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 1: how I see this uh and and bummer from Mike White, 684 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,439 Speaker 1: because this does kind of stop any momentum he had. 685 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 1: We'll see, but it's you know, it's always interesting. And 686 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 1: by the way Solid did speak today, we have this 687 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:21,439 Speaker 1: graver uh you know, the coaches grasping for straws when 688 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,280 Speaker 1: he's talking about his second year quarterback and he's citing 689 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: college stats to say that he's good. I mean he's 690 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: He's the same quarterback that once four eighteen in the 691 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,399 Speaker 1: bowl game. So he's very capable. It's just a matter 692 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 1: of just being conscientious and tying everything together. Oh God, 693 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,720 Speaker 1: in case of emergency, flip the uh you know Duncan 694 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 1: donuts bowl switch. I mean, Gene completed in fifteen or 695 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: sixteen straight passes last night, and that that wasn't like 696 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 1: the greatest performance. All right, anything else? Oh, we have predictions. 697 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: Let's go through the week fourteen predictions. Let's go, Zack. 698 00:37:57,800 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: Come on, Zack, this is your last chance. I really 699 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 1: do think this is Zach Wilson's final chance to make 700 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: a true impression on it. They will move on. If 701 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: he bombs in this game, they will turn back to 702 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 1: Mike White as soon as possible and then go get 703 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 1: a new quarterback, or keep Mike White, but probably get 704 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: a new quarterback. That is that's a lot of pressure, 705 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: Clay Bond, in addition to not maybe being very good. 706 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,720 Speaker 1: That's the problem. That's the problem pressure and and playing 707 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 1: football when the other people might be better than you. 708 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: You never want to be under a ton of pressure 709 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:30,839 Speaker 1: and not be good. No matter what the field. It's 710 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 1: a dangerous combination. It's a very good speaking. Um. Would 711 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: you guys are we doing for predictions? Hear the predictions 712 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: from last week? Mark, I don't really need to go 713 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 1: through them, but all he was over for although we 714 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: don't know the Rachel will meet somebody on Saturday who 715 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 1: will change her life. Hey, Justin, can you reach out 716 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 1: to Rachel and see if she could jump on real 717 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 1: quick before we say goodbye to see what happened with 718 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: her last Saturday. UM Watson struggles. Zeuser said multiple turnover? 719 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,240 Speaker 1: Is in lost two Bengals. Uh, he didn't play well, 720 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: but I don't know if he had multiple turnovers and 721 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: it wasn't really what I predicted. I thought people would 722 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: be talking Jake Brisket, Dolphins dropped forty plus and the 723 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: Chargers I'm our own Greggy and uh, Rachel had Derek 724 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:22,800 Speaker 1: Carr has nightmares about Baker Mayfield. Justin said they're all misses, 725 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 1: So I guess that he knows what's in the mind 726 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:30,840 Speaker 1: of Derek Carr. But let's get to this week's predictions. Okay, 727 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: my week fifteen prediction. We were just talking about Zach 728 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: Wilson maybe not being good. Um, we watched Taylor Heineke 729 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: against Daniel Jones and like a quarterback hiding competition in 730 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 1: the playoffs in the in the overtime a couple of 731 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: weeks ago, we get to see Justin Fields and Jalen Hurts. 732 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: This weekend, I'm excited for the game. Uh. Some people 733 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: have said that there might be forty eight and a 734 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 1: half points. I think we get forty nine plus in 735 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 1: this game, the Eagles and the Bears. And yes, Greg, 736 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,800 Speaker 1: you will hear this prediction her own today. Yeah, game debut, 737 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 1: check it out NFL network. I do like when you 738 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,839 Speaker 1: just hit us with a straight up gambling point here. Uh, 739 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: and that does seem like a crazy low number. Welcome 740 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:14,320 Speaker 1: to the dark Side, Patrick, Yeah, it's thirty five in 741 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,280 Speaker 1: the United States. Patrick, I've stated this on numerous occasions. 742 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 1: Don't go to deep down this rabbit hole. Well, the 743 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 1: problem is um the whole uh leader of this imperial monstrosity. Uh. 744 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,600 Speaker 1: I'm not going to do that, but I will occasionally 745 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 1: make references to a wager. Alright, imperial monstrosity, Greggy, I 746 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 1: am predicting that Josh McDaniel embarrasses Matt Patricia. I don't 747 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: know how. I don't know what But this Patriots season 748 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 1: UM reaches what is feels like a conclusion with a 749 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 1: embarrassing performance. The Patriots so much this year, I love it. 750 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:02,319 Speaker 1: Just the offense Josh McDaniels is just gonna show what 751 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:07,320 Speaker 1: it looks like, UM to embarrass your former employers. Is 752 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: he gonna show him up after the game or we're 753 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 1: gonna I honestly think if they just win the game 754 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: and the Patriots offense looks terrible and the Raider's offense 755 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,839 Speaker 1: looks competent, that's probably gonna be enough. But I'm leaving 756 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:23,919 Speaker 1: room for something a little extra spice. UM, I will 757 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 1: go with. You know, I like to have fun with 758 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 1: those those Dolphins fans. It's fun. I feel like we 759 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 1: have a nice it's a healthy antagonistic relationship because I do. 760 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:39,720 Speaker 1: I do kind of like them, despite my abject hatred 761 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 1: for them as well. So you know what's coming here, Dolphins. 762 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,920 Speaker 1: Um TOA is gonna be a natural disaster in Buffalo 763 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 1: that will make you know, by comparison extreme lake effects 764 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 1: snow look like a gentle may breeze in Maui, this 765 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: is gonna be ugly. You're gonna see throws from tah 766 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: that you haven't seen since your cousins Pop Warner game 767 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 1: where it was like why are they putting him in 768 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 1: a quarterback? Like this isn't this is gonna make a 769 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: wish thing, like you gotta get him. He should be blocking, 770 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 1: he can't be throwing the ball. That's what the two 771 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: quote unquote spirals will look like in Western New York 772 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 1: in the conditions, and needless to say, the Bills will 773 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: be victorious. So we're talking like Andy Dalton, that legendary 774 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,720 Speaker 1: t n F night, like Brian Hoyer on wild Card weekend. 775 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,399 Speaker 1: You're you're saying, like it's it's going to be really bad. 776 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,720 Speaker 1: I think it will be. It will be a major 777 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 1: conversation on all of our programming, including a t n 778 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,240 Speaker 1: what the hell has happened to to? And the Dolphins offense. 779 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: It'll be Josh Freeman starting for who was it the 780 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:55,840 Speaker 1: Giants after just joining the team. Your your best hope 781 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 1: here toa or Dolphins fans out here are the best 782 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:00,839 Speaker 1: way Dan could be rock is that is the weather 783 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: so bad that no one, no one could succeed in 784 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: it like that, like that game on Thursday night last year, 785 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: And that's what it seems like. It might be. It 786 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: might be so bad that, like it's totally impossible. I 787 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 1: almost think that would help the Dolphins. They can also 788 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,440 Speaker 1: occasionally run the ball. I don't know if you're if 789 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: you're playing maybe the Chargers and they can't stop anybody 790 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: on that maybe you could. I don't know. And I 791 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 1: will I will Dolphins fans again because I kind of 792 00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: like you, even though I hate you. I will let 793 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: you know if two balls out and they win that game, 794 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,880 Speaker 1: you will get a sincere apology from me on a 795 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: Sunday night show because I've raised the stakes. I mean, 796 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: we need to go farther than apology. I'm gonna I 797 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 1: will chop off my pinky finger with a meat cleaver. Yes, 798 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 1: Robbie says, I think Dan maybe manifesting the Dolphins being 799 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,920 Speaker 1: bad into existence so the Jets can make the playoffs. 800 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 1: There is a sneaky amount of Dolphins Jets heat boiling 801 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,279 Speaker 1: inside of Dan now that the Patriots, even though the 802 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 1: Patriots are in the race, Uh, I think it's the 803 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 1: Dolphins that really bother you, and that has to make 804 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:12,240 Speaker 1: you even more. Yeah, but the Patriots are. It's super 805 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: annoying the Patriots sweeping the Jets because We all know 806 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: that was fu Ghazi as hell, but it is what 807 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: it is. So I worry about that. I need that 808 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 1: Pat's collapse. But that Jets Dolphins Week eight team game, 809 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: Oh look out, all right, good stuff.
