1
00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 1: The Around the NFL Podcast is the mic. Welcome back

2
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: to another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast. My

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 1: name is Dan Hansis, and I'm joined by a room

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:17,799
Speaker 1: filled with heroes. Mark Sessler, Chris Westling, Frank Rosenthal. What

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: up boys? Hey Dan? Thursday? Should I feel like the

6
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: podcast has already started? We just had ten minute conversation

7
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: diving deep into what it means to even be a

8
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: sports fan. Should adults be so emotionally invested? It was?

9
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: It was almost like you, Joe Buck, should have been

10
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: here to narrow to moderate it. No, we all have

11
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: so much energy thanks to the gold Standard coming through

12
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: with high octane contraptions from Jackson Market. Yes, gold Center

13
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: filling in behind the glass again. How are you? Gold Standards?

14
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: Just fine? How are you, gentlemen? If we're great as

15
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: you as you may recall as a listener of the show,

16
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: back when we were playing Go Get My Lunch, uh

17
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: making the wagers gold Centers. One wager was that Golden

18
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: Tate would sign with the Tennessee Titans. That was a

19
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: wild guest didn't work out, and as a man of

20
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 1: his word, once he got back from his sabbatical, he

21
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: purchased us us high octane sandwiches from Jackson Market in

22
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: Culver City. I like also that it falls neatly into

23
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: a day where TD goes a wall on the show,

24
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: nowhere to be found. Zack steps in capably to take over,

25
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: and he sped us lunch. It's beautiful. It's machiavellian on

26
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,479
Speaker 1: some level, maybe by Zak Goldman, but see, he should

27
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: be a general manager. How much better would the Titans

28
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: be with Golden Tate in the mix I'm talking about.

29
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: It wasn't prognostication, it was purely advice. Gold Standard wants

30
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: the strap, he wants that chair back, and he's making

31
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: a hard push for it. You could feel it, and

32
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: it's working. I'm just gonna be honest. I mean, I

33
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: have got a giant sandwich in my belly. It's great. Um.

34
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: So this is our big Week twelve preview show. Uh.

35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna go through each of the games uh in

36
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: Week twelve as the as we get closer and closer

37
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: to Thanksgiving and the home struts of the regular season,

38
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: so the games are starting to get more and more important.

39
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: But before we get into all those games, let's go

40
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: to our recap of Thursday Night Football the Raiders and

41
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. Is this our a B or B team?

42
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: A team B teams? Oh the new A team. In

43
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 1: the words of Chris Westling, West and Greg Rosenthal, take

44
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: it away a bodies. Yeah, you got the music and

45
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: it deserves it because we got the best game of

46
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: the year this Thursday. Best game of the year Chris Westling,

47
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: the Raiders getting on the board for the two thousand

48
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: fourteen season or the best game of all time. Not

49
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: the best game, not the best game of the year either,

50
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: but it was fun. Thrilled for Raiders fans and for

51
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: Charles Woodson, who said after the game on NFL Network

52
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: that he need needed this game like he needed to breathe. Yeah.

53
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: He he was flying around tonight and he played great.

54
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: The Raiders defense played well for most of the game,

55
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 1: built up a seventeen to three lead, The Chiefs stormed

56
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: back to take the leaden with nine minutes left, and

57
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: then out of nowhere, the best drive of the Raiders season,

58
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: seventeen plays, eighty yards over seven minutes, and Derek Carr

59
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 1: gets it done with a go ahead touchdown with under

60
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: two minutes to go. One of the biggest upsets of

61
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: the year and a hugely costly lost for the Chiefs. Yeah,

62
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: I think the Raiders. It ends there losing streak, especially

63
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: ends a twenty four game losing streak for Antonio Smith

64
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: and mattch Shop, So good for them. But this is

65
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: more about the Chiefs because they're the relevant team here.

66
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: The Raiders are already mathematically eliminated. The Chiefs have to

67
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: play the Broncos next week, and they have to go

68
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: to Arizona and play the Cardinals after that. Uh, I

69
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,119
Speaker 1: think we're gonna stop anointing team's contenders because every time

70
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: we do, they just go out and lose. Well, there's

71
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: seven and four and that this is how the NFL goes.

72
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: You know, they beat the Seahawks on Sunday, they lose

73
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: to the Raiders on Thursday. It wouldn't stun me if

74
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: they beat the Broncos next week. But this showed you know,

75
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: their offense, it's not explosive and they play with a

76
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: small margin for air, and so they got stuck in

77
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: a situation where they couldn't move the ball very well.

78
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: But then, you know, I wrote something on Twitter with

79
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 1: five minutes left and the third quarter. This is a

80
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: big twenty minutes in the chief season and right away

81
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: they go right down the field, score a touchdown, get

82
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 1: the ball back, score a touchdown, get the ball back,

83
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: get into the red zone. Don't give Jamal Charles the

84
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: ball at all on the entire drive. But they do

85
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: take the lead, so they responded on offense and then

86
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: they come up just short. Yeah, in the fourth quarter,

87
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: that last draw. They didn't get Jamal Charles involved in

88
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: the two touchdown drives. They were built on Jamal Charles. Still,

89
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: I will remember this game for one thing. TD behind

90
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: the Glass, our producer, you know what I'm talking about here.

91
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking at the end of the game.

92
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: The most memorable moment of Justin Tuck's Raiders career. It's so.

93
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, the most valuable thing Justin

94
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: Tuck will ever do in his Raider's career happened tonight,

95
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: and that was take a time out with about thirty

96
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: five seconds left to save the Raiders from the most

97
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: embarrassing penalty that you'll ever see, with CEO Moore and

98
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: Khalil Mack doing choreographed handshakes and four celebrates for at

99
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,799
Speaker 1: least ten seconds, for ten seconds thirty yards down field

100
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 1: in the field. It was so great, so oblivious to

101
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: the rest of the game. They looked like the three

102
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 1: little pigs waiting for the wolf to come in and

103
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 1: put them down. They thought. They must have thought they

104
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: won the game, or they just weren't thinking at all,

105
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 1: or they thought they won the Super Bowl. You really

106
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: couldn't tell. Justin Tuch saving from a penalty. But let's

107
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: calm down on saying he saved the game. No, it

108
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: would It would have just been went fourth and seven

109
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: or something like seven with forty something more yards to

110
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: go and needing a touchdown. Right. It's it was just funny.

111
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: I mean, even even in a win like this. The

112
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: Raiders had a play on that last drive on fourth

113
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: down where they had three penalties against him. I mean

114
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: they were twists and turns all over this game, that

115
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: that Raiders drive that they picked up. There were so

116
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: many moments. This game has gonna haunt Chiefs fans for

117
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: the rest of the year. Because there was a third

118
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: and twelve, or Ron Parker had a pass interference, there

119
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: was a fourth down the Raiders had that Andy Reid

120
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: didn't challenge the spot, which looked a little shaky. I mean,

121
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: there were there were a million times where it seemed

122
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: like if the Chiefs made one play, the game was over.

123
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: And let's talk about the running games, because this was

124
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: the matchup going in that seemed to favor the Chiefs heavily.

125
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: Latavius Murray out rushed Jamal Charles and looked like for

126
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: a minute, the Raiders finally had an answer at running back.

127
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: He had more yards he had the first running back

128
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: in NFL history was over a hundred yards and two

129
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 1: touchdowns on less than six carries. Four carries, and then

130
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,239
Speaker 1: he got concussed on a kickoff after that, and Darren

131
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: mcfadd was so bad that the Raiders had to turn

132
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: to Marcel Reees back and and that was smart to do.

133
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: He was the running back on on their final drive.

134
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: And uh, it just goes to show you never know

135
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: what games are gonna be good here, and we've had

136
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: some stinkers in prime time. This Chief's Raiders ended up

137
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: being one of the best games of the year. Really,

138
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: at least in primetime. It was a lot of fun

139
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: to watch, be honest, though I honestly didn't watch most

140
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: of this game raising Chiefs. I spent most of it

141
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: arguing with a co worker who is the sexier team

142
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: to watch, the Chiefs of Cardinals. I picked Cardinals. It's

143
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: definitely such a meta evening for you. I didn't turn

144
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: it onto two minutes left. It's definitely the Cardinals. I like,

145
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 1: I admire what the Chiefs have done this year, but

146
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: they're not necessarily are a hard watch even if they're good. Yeah. Well,

147
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: with that in mind, let's let's send it back to

148
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: the rest of the crew. Let's talk about week twelves games.

149
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: All right, So that was Thursday night. So now let's

150
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: look ahead to Sunday and Monday, and we will start with,

151
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: as we do every week, some games that jump out

152
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: to us is the best games of the week, and

153
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: in this case, we're gonna start with the last game

154
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: Monday Night football, the Baltimore Ravens at the Nolans Saints.

155
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: A huge, huge game for the Saints, who can't get

156
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: out of their own way, losers of two straight in

157
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: their building. There now four and six. Uh. The Ravens

158
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: are six and four and in uh definitely good playoff position,

159
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: but they put themselves in a very vulnerable spot if

160
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: they fall to six and five. So this is a

161
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 1: huge game for both teams and in this situation, everyone

162
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: at this table pick the Saints to hold court at

163
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: home get back on track, except for one man, and

164
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: he's wearing a cream colored sweater zipped up to the

165
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: neck area. He is Gregg Rose a lot about it. Well,

166
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: when did we start? I thought last week we decided

167
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: the Saints are aren't that good anymore. They just got

168
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:56,959
Speaker 1: trounced by You deserve credit for this because we've been

169
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: We were talking about it on Sunday that the Saints

170
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,839
Speaker 1: tricked us on some level. We kept on buying in.

171
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: But the three of us, Mark, Chris and I all

172
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: bought in again. But I guess I can't imagine losing

173
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: three in a row in prime time in their building.

174
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,079
Speaker 1: I feel like things aren't that crazy. We're not very intelligent.

175
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: That could be another piece. It's always not good to

176
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: pick games going just on last week, so I'm maybe

177
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,319
Speaker 1: I'm chasing it. But the Saints haven't convinced me that

178
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: they're particularly good team. Yes, they had that one game

179
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: against Green Bay that that kind of fooled us, but

180
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: week after week they're not that good on offense. And

181
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: now the fact that their offense is having problems, I

182
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: mean back to back weeks, their offense let them down.

183
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 1: They should have won the game against San Francisco, but

184
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: they got the ball back a couple of times with

185
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: the chance to win, didn't do it. Last week they

186
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: scored ten points. Now Brandon Cooks is out for the season.

187
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: I've waited for this Ravens team to kind of step

188
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 1: up and be a mini juggernaut. They haven't been as

189
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: consistent as I like, but I think they have the

190
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 1: talent to do it. Drew Brees is just above the

191
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: gabber zone over the past months. It's averaging about six

192
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: yards per time. They have no big plays on offense,

193
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: and mark Ingram was that guy, but I just don't

194
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: think he's running with the same abandoned since he injured

195
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: his shoulder. He's churning out yards between the tackles, but

196
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,319
Speaker 1: they don't have any big play threats right now. And

197
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: also Baltimore, which a team I think that has flown

198
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: under the radar, maybe because when you thought they would

199
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: have caught caught fire and really gotten into our attention.

200
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: They tend to drop a game here and there. But

201
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: Ingram is going up against one of the better run

202
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: defenses in the league right I really like what helloi

203
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: not has done this year. It's every year he just

204
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,319
Speaker 1: gets into the All Pro or Pro Bowl Game and

205
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: he gets voted even when he's having a bad game.

206
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: But this is one of those years that if someday

207
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: he does go into the Hall of Fame and think, Okay,

208
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: it was worth it this year because he's been one

209
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: of the best at his position. Um Brandon Williams right

210
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: next to him, has been terrific all season. They have

211
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 1: a pretty good defense, even with Jimmy Smith Hurts. I

212
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 1: hold in my hand the two thousand and fourteen research notes,

213
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: as you can see, very well put together by the team.

214
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: I am an expert of pulling out things that are

215
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: relevant to our discussion. And you know we're right lest

216
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: you agree, right like a monkey with a hammer, all right.

217
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 1: And we were talking about Drew Brees and he's flirting

218
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: with a Gabbard zone. But the defense is a major

219
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: problem for the Saints. And here's a great number, little nugget.

220
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: Rob Ryan's defense has forced three and ounce on only

221
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: twelve point five percent of opponents drives. That's the worst

222
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: in the NFL. It's also the worst in the NFL

223
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: since two thousand and five. The two thousand five Bengals.

224
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: You might remember that team. That's a great stat. Well,

225
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 1: Christopher Roberts, just this morning, though, you told me against

226
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: this Saints defense this week, But in general, you would

227
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: take Andy Dalton if you were a general manager, over

228
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco. So do you really trust Flacco to do

229
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: anything against this New Orleans team? You said that, I

230
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: don't think I said that. Actually I didn't say that. Well,

231
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: we I posed it to you and I said I

232
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: would absolutely take Flacco over do I try? Yeah, of course,

233
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: I think Joe Flacco is a good player. I don't

234
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: think he's a great player. Do I think he could

235
00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: pick a part of bad defense? Yes, especially in New Orleans. Now,

236
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: we were all there, I guess actually, Chris, you weren't there,

237
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 1: Mark Dan and I we were there. Last time he

238
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: played a meaningful game in New Orleans, and I remember

239
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: him ripping the right word. I mean, that was one

240
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: of the best performances I've ever seen. All the all

241
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,559
Speaker 1: that good memories, good vibes from that day. Maybe that

242
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:25,839
Speaker 1: helps him out exactly the kind of thing you would say.

243
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: I just wanted to bring up. It was a good memory.

244
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 1: I think the first half of that game is one

245
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: of the best performances I've ever seen in person by Flaco.

246
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: So maybe, yeah, why not you go back. Imagine like

247
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 1: you go to the place where you met your wife

248
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,079
Speaker 1: or something. I think it was a nice memory for

249
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: the three of us. But without our flannel shirted friend,

250
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: I mean, there was two of you right now, we

251
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: are friends because of the shirts we were. It's the

252
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 1: fashion choice to bring you together. By the way, the Saints,

253
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,079
Speaker 1: as bad as another loss would be, especially at home,

254
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: they still wouldn't be out of the division by any

255
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: stretch of four and seven. That just tells you how

256
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: bad the NFC South is. But the Ravens they need

257
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,719
Speaker 1: this win. They would fall back into last place in

258
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: the a f C North that they don't win. So

259
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: this is a big, big, big, big game for both

260
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 1: teams and uh, Jon Gruden, Mike Rico, congrats, guys, got

261
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: a good one, all right, So let's move on to

262
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,079
Speaker 1: our second game. We're really looking forward to. This one

263
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: is a defending Super Bowl champion, the Seattle Seahawks, who

264
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: are kind of a tough team to figure out right now.

265
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: The Cardinals, they're a team that feel like we have

266
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 1: figured out. They are a very good football team. They're

267
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,719
Speaker 1: nine and one. They lost Carson Palmer, of course, but

268
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: Drew Stanton came on and they got a nice win

269
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: last week with Stanton. Now they go to Seattle. We

270
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 1: talked about this a little bit on Wednesday Show about

271
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: how Seattle maybe the last, uh last link of invincibility

272
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 1: for them is in their building. Are they going to

273
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: hold court at home against the Cardinals who are beating

274
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: almost everyone this year? I mean, we just talked to

275
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 1: about a game before where we're asking why is no

276
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: one picking Baltimore against New Orleans in New Orleans after

277
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 1: what we've seen from the Saints. I think some of

278
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 1: that applies here. I mean, I think we all pick

279
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: Seattle and and for me, this is the breaking point

280
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 1: game if they if Seattle gets taken here by a

281
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 1: team that we really should have a lot of faith

282
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: in Arizona. At this point, I'm stopped. I pay I

283
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: picked Seattle almost every week. I'm gonna stop doing that

284
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: because they're just not a very good team at this

285
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: point compared to where they were before. Plus Arizona beat

286
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: them in Seattle the last time they played, right, I mean,

287
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: Carson bomb is a strange game. Though, because you have

288
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: four interceptions, Bombers throwing picks and all I mean is

289
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 1: they were able to beat it with this style. And

290
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: I do think it counts for something. Because you have

291
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: the same coaches, much of the same players last year,

292
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: They're gonna need to win a similar type of game here.

293
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: You would think it's going to be an ugly defensive game. Yeah,

294
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: you would think so. I think the Cardinals have the

295
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: best secondary in the NFL right now. They've taken that

296
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: from the Legion of Boom and the Seahawks. When you

297
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: watch the Chiefs game, the difference in the game, the

298
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: reason the Seahawks lost because Russell Wilson has no go

299
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: to receiver, especially in the red zone. They don't have

300
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: a single receiver who can wall a defender off and

301
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: make up play at the point of the catch. Don't

302
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 1: you think part of that, though, is their system and

303
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Because we said they didn't have a go

304
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 1: to receiver, any great receivers. When Golden Tate was on

305
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: the team, he couldn't. He couldn't top six and nine.

306
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think Golden Tate is a

307
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: guy in the red zone that you're going to I

308
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: mean in the red zone they have they don't have

309
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 1: a tight end who can do that. They don't have

310
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 1: a wide receiver. And it's not just that they can't leap,

311
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: it's they don't have a wide enough body to wall

312
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: off a defender, which you need in the red zone.

313
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: They don't have anybody like that. Wes, you are the mailman,

314
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna pose this question to you. I'm looking

315
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: at the team leader stats for the Cardinals. Obviously Carson

316
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: Palmer's gone for the years, so you got a backup quarterback.

317
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: Their number one Russia Andre Ellington, is averaging three and

318
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: a half yards to carry, as is their backup. They

319
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: have no receiver on pace for a thousand yards season.

320
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: What makes the Cardinals as good? How are the Cardinals

321
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: nine and one? Well? I think the two things that

322
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: when I look at their offense, which you're typically mentioning,

323
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: I think they're a true team, like the Cardinals more

324
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: than any team I can remember. Greg and I have

325
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: talked about this. They remind us of the two thousand

326
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: and one Patriots. They really care about each other. Larry

327
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 1: Fitzgerald has given up his production, his production for the

328
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: team and the other thing is the difference in that

329
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: game last week was that Jim Colwell was ultra conservative

330
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: to a fault and Matthew Stafford didn't take enough chances

331
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: down the field. Stanton was taken two or three chances

332
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: deep balls every quarter. And one thing with Arians because

333
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: I can remember when he was even Cleveland's offensive coordinator

334
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: when he was paired with Butch Davis and no one

335
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: really knew who Arians was. But the one defining mark

336
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: of that that's the last time Cleveland went to the

337
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: playoffs with Tim Couch and Kelly hold them of all people,

338
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 1: was that they would kill you three or four times

339
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: a game with a shot down field. I think Arians

340
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 1: is the kind of risk. I think players like that,

341
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: We're gonna take shots and we're gonna go for it.

342
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: And you know, Stanton has got what the lowest completion

343
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: percentage in the league with anyone with a hundred plus passes,

344
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: but he's his y'ar. It's for completion or massive. Because

345
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: of that, That's the thing I'm still wary of with

346
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: this team though, that you take Palmer and you put

347
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 1: in Stanton, and I don't know if you could still

348
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 1: be that offense and if that's what made them dangerous.

349
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,479
Speaker 1: I know he's made some plays in the games, he's

350
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: gotten into um yet to be convinced that he's that guy.

351
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: This will be a great test in Seattle to see

352
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: if Stanton can step up. It's a huge advantage for

353
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 1: the Seahawks on the ground. I mean, the Seahawks looked

354
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 1: vulnerable to the run last week, and yet Arizona hasn't

355
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: been able to really consistently run on anyone. Whereas you

356
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 1: have Marshawn Lynch playing as well as he's ever played,

357
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: which is crazy to talk about because I mean he

358
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago as the number two running

359
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 1: back in the league, maybe the top one with Adrian Peterson,

360
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: but he ran. I mean he is running with great

361
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: abandoned and I think when you have the much better quarterback,

362
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: you have the better running game. You're at home. You

363
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 1: say that, but you know how well Dan Williams is playing,

364
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: and Calais Campbell is Outside of J. J. Watt, There's

365
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: not a better defensive end in the league than j

366
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: than Calais Campbell. He got an m v P honorable

367
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: mention from your m v P. I'm not ready to

368
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 1: say they're not a playoff team if they lose this game.

369
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: The Seahawks are not a playoff team. All right, let's

370
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 1: move on. So we all got the Seahawks there, but

371
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 1: the Cardinals surely are gonna put up a fight. Now

372
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: we move on to Denver, the other Super Bowl team

373
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 1: from last year. They will be at home against the

374
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins sitting at six and four, coming

375
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: off the big Thursday night win over Buffalo last week

376
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 1: at home, and now they faced the Broncos. And and Greg,

377
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 1: I'll start with you, because are you seeing potentially some

378
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: flaws and Peyton Manning's game that we should be a

379
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 1: little nervous about. I see flies around him, and he

380
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: is a quarterback that needs his offensive line to protect him.

381
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 1: There's no secret, and people are getting a lot of

382
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 1: pressure on him. The Rams did a very similar set

383
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: up to the Patriots, where they sent blitzers up the middle.

384
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 1: It got to Peyton Manning. Ryan Claydie is left tackles

385
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: not having a good year, and he started letting go

386
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: to the ball a little too early and had bad

387
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: throw has made some bad decisions too. It's just so

388
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 1: rare to see Peyton Manning flustered more than just a

389
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: random game when you see it twice in three weeks

390
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: and then you see a really good defense coming into

391
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: town this week that can be creative, that can rest

392
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: the passer. I mean this sets up as a very,

393
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: very tough matchup for the Broncos. One of the things

394
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: for me to Ronnie Hillman, I think in his last

395
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 1: two games it's thirteen and sixteen yards total. They don't

396
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: have that element to their offense, and that you know what.

397
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 1: I know they're not a run team, but when you

398
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: absolutely removed the threat of that, teams are gonna be

399
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: able to end. The injuries last week killed them too.

400
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 1: I mean, they weren't able to be themselves. Jeff Fisher

401
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: had a great game plan against Peyton Manning. What you

402
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 1: said was true. He's not adjusting well to the pressure

403
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: right now. They blitzed him up the middle. But also,

404
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: I think we find out that the Broncos don't have

405
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: a special offense when you take away Julius Thomas, Emmanuel

406
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: Sanders Monte ball at West Welker, is you know, half

407
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 1: as productive as he's been. Yes, thank you, that's right.

408
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 1: Dan makes the big Now you're right, You're right. I

409
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: mean Julius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders. Julius Thomas is the

410
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: biggest matchup problem on the team, maybe even more than

411
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: Damarius Thomas. When when you took those two out of

412
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 1: the mix, it just was still strange though to see

413
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: Manning so flustered and getting and sometimes he was getting

414
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 1: rid of the ball even before the pressure. He looked

415
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 1: like Tom Brady er in the year because he had

416
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: no one because he had Tom Brady's weapons. Well, what

417
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 1: about Broncos. They go out in the off season to

418
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 1: rebuild a defense that was in complete last year, that

419
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 1: defense versus Miami. I think that's not a bad matchup

420
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: for Denver. I agree. I mean there's you know, you're

421
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: getting b minus game out at Ryan Tannehill every week

422
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 1: and you're happy with that. You're getting eighty ninety yards

423
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 1: out of La Marmller like their offense is better. But

424
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 1: going to Denver, a defense that we've talked about as

425
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 1: one of the most talented in the league, you would

426
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,479
Speaker 1: think they would be able to shut Miami down. One

427
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 1: of one of the shadowy league figures is a big

428
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: Broncos fan came over to our quadrant today and said

429
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: he expects on Miller and DeMarcus Ware to be in

430
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: the Dolphinsfeld we very you know, obediently, we all agreed

431
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: West Year's a nice staff from the research guide and

432
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 1: the Broncos three losses this season, they have a total

433
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 1: of four rushing first down so when that winning game,

434
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 1: these are these are your two best stats of the year.

435
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: But the fun a little countdown, where's Joe? Alright? So

436
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 1: we all picked the Broncos, though, so I guess we

437
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 1: are as a group confident they will get back on track.

438
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: Maybe we're just not ready to buy in on the

439
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: Dolphins in a big spot to win here, well they play.

440
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: If it was in Miami, I would think I would

441
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 1: take the Dolphins. It's a pretty big upset here to

442
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: to go on the road beat Denver like this, But

443
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 1: it wouldn't surprise me. You know. You gotta just blitz

444
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: those Mannings. They don't know what's going on. What about Cooper?

445
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: A clueless group fools? They are all right? That's that,

446
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 1: all right. It's that time of the week every Thursday

447
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 1: where we talk about we already talked that one defend

448
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 1: your hero pick. It was Greg Rosithal getting behind the

449
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints opponent opponent. Excuse me, m Raven the

450
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,879
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. Thank you. I'm recovered from my stroke. So

451
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: you took you took the Ravens, but we got one more.

452
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: And this is a segment we like to call defend

453
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: your hero gold standard getting back in the groove. It's

454
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: gonna take a little bit, you know, slow, you know,

455
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: slow reaction times, the spring trap. I took a stroke

456
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: seconds before that, So I don't feel like you have

457
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 1: to be perfect. Nobody is. This is our defender hero segment.

458
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: Where do you the person amongst us that went against

459
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 1: the rest of us, not on purpose, but it just

460
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,199
Speaker 1: worked out that way. Now tells us why they are right,

461
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 1: why they chose the team that is the underdog within

462
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 1: our group. And in this case it is the great

463
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 1: Kevin Patra who is a great man and he's a

464
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 1: Chicago correspondent. We don't have him on the line today,

465
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:12,359
Speaker 1: so I'm going to throw it to Chris Wesling the mailman. Uh.

466
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: Kevin Patrick believes that the St. Louis Rams, who are

467
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,640
Speaker 1: playing pretty well of late, will head to San Diego

468
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: and take down the struggling, the maligned team around the NFL.

469
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: The San Diego Chargers West defend that hero. That's not

470
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: really not that hard. The Chargers aren't playing well for

471
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 1: the past month. Philip Rivers isn't getting it done. The

472
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 1: offensive line is a detriment. And you have the Rams,

473
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,719
Speaker 1: a team with Aaron Donald defensive Rookie of the Year

474
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: candidate Robert Quinn has been playing great over the past month.

475
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 1: T J. McDonald has been one of the best safeties

476
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: in the league over the past month. And when I

477
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 1: watch Alec Loco Tree at linebacker, this guy looks like

478
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: a few for Thomas Davis with playmaking ability, coverage, and

479
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,439
Speaker 1: closing speed. They have so many weapons on the defense

480
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: right now, as Greg astutely pointed out a week ago,

481
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: And why why didn't I take him? I almost did.

482
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: I had them. You know you have to pick you

483
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 1: go right or left, helmets, helmet. I had it sitting

484
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: on Ram's helmet, moved it over to Chargers. I I

485
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,399
Speaker 1: switched back like eight hours later. That was stupid. I

486
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: think patra is running some sort of voodoo on us

487
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: from his Chicago basement. No, I think it's this group

488
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 1: does not believe in the team of a t L

489
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 1: and this is our chance to get back on the

490
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: ship and get throw our support behind them. And that's

491
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: why I took him. I never hesitated Charges all the way.

492
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,239
Speaker 1: That really was why I took him. It was more

493
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,479
Speaker 1: in active faith because if you just look at who

494
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: has been playing better over the last month, there is

495
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 1: no question it's the Rams. But I do still believe

496
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: in this team that we chose. I was behind it

497
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 1: to begin with to make this the team of a

498
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 1: t L. I feel like Philip Rivers is gonna get

499
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: it going. They are healthier on defense. They had a

500
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: good defensive game last week. I mean, they're not exactly

501
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 1: playing you know the two thousand seven Patriots here on

502
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: offense shut them down. Charges, Well, that's the Rams offenses

503
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 1: is a mixed bag from week to week. But you know,

504
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers on the injury report for the first time

505
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 1: in bomb bag and the airplane is what it is.

506
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: It is exactly like that. What are we talking about

507
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 1: the RAMS offense again? Like the vomit bag on an aircraft?

508
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: What was the two thousand seven Patriots? So they're the

509
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 1: a FC East Division champions that ye know, I can't

510
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 1: remember what they what they were famous for for losing

511
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: in the desert like apparently they're going to this year

512
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. Good offense, they were pretty good.

513
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: They're pretty awesome. Actually, other thoughts about the game, gentlemen,

514
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: I think that Patra was right. I picked the wrong

515
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 1: team here, and I'm starting to know. I think that

516
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: he we defended. It's strongly enough where I want to

517
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 1: change my opinion, I know. And that's why, you know,

518
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 1: the entire weekend is a wash. You know when it

519
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 1: comes to these picks, Mark, you're never two in on

520
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,879
Speaker 1: any of your picks. It seems it's really revealing of

521
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: your general attitude towards life. I feel like sometimes not

522
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 1: calling in on my general life that is again erroneous

523
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 1: from Greg, just an assumption that a generality that is

524
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: miles away from accurate. You're not very strong willed in

525
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: the pick segment. I don't even remember who I picked

526
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: half the time. But I'm sitting only three games behind you,

527
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: and I'm coming for you. Hansas. Like it. I don't

528
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: believe that, but I like it. All right. We move on.

529
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: Speaking of Mark Sessler, the Cleveland Browns coming off what

530
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: was not a very good game, a loss to the

531
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: Texans in their own building. Now travel to Atlanta the

532
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 1: Georgia Dome to face the Falcons. Big game for both teams.

533
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: Wildly enough, the Browns obviously are right in the middle

534
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: of that pact. D af C North and the Falcons,

535
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,680
Speaker 1: believe it or not, are tied for first place in

536
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 1: the NFC South at four and six, So two teams

537
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,400
Speaker 1: that I don't know if if we have a real

538
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: handle on. But Mark, I saw that you did pick again.

539
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,160
Speaker 1: We don't know when you make your picks how much

540
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: you're in on them. But you picked the Browns to

541
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 1: win this game. Why do you think that they'll bounce

542
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 1: back on the road. They are going to drop a

543
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 1: hammer on Atlanta. I normally feel very suspicious about Cleveland

544
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 1: from week to week. They are going to decimate the

545
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: Falcons by twenty plus points. Why we want me to

546
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: point a one specific thing. Josh Gordon's back. I think

547
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: that helps. They haven't had a weapon like that all

548
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: year long. They haven't had Jordan Cameron all year long.

549
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 1: Atlanta's past defense is treacherous. I don't think he is,

550
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: but they're accustomed to not having him almost the entire

551
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: I just turned around because you were very down earlier

552
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,399
Speaker 1: in the week, Jabal Sheared was maybe out for the year.

553
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 1: Now it's probably just one game. Carlos Dansby out for

554
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: a month, and you thought that maybe the playoff hopes

555
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,880
Speaker 1: were over, but hardly. If they're gonna drop a bomb

556
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: on the road, Cleveland's defense is probably gonna give up five, six,

557
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 1: seven more points per game than they were last you

558
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 1: know from heat from the start of the year. They

559
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 1: are injury riddled. And I know someone else in this

560
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: room picked the Falcons, and I would imagine they did

561
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 1: for that. That would be among the reasons Harris Dr

562
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: Sell power pick. And by the way, Dr Cell, you

563
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 1: want something that lasts a long time, you pop one

564
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,879
Speaker 1: of those Dorsall batteries in and good night, nurse. So

565
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: it's great projects, well it's not just so, you know,

566
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,959
Speaker 1: an electronic product to my house broke and I need

567
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 1: to just put a battery and it's like no, no, no,

568
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 1: the battery anyway, So we every week or for the

569
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,640
Speaker 1: next couple of weeks, we're going to we have been

570
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 1: picking the game that we're most confident about as we see.

571
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 1: I like that Derrissell is not even aware that Mark

572
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 1: was so confident that we're hearing that he said the

573
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: Browns are his lock of the week drs cell du

574
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: du Duing lock of the week Chris Westling, and this

575
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: is the first in our picks. His Durstall lock of

576
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: the week was the Falcons over the Browns. Troll troll,

577
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: troll your boat. West Why do you say that. I'm

578
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: looking over my game re one notes and almost all

579
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 1: of my notes on the Falcons are negative. Yeah, that's

580
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 1: what I was. They're all negative on the Browns too,

581
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: So it's make a positive for the Falcons are one

582
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: of the best home teams in the NFL since Matt

583
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 1: Ryan entered the lete. That's all you got. I mean

584
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 1: that I research the Browns defense has lost Phil Taylor,

585
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: Carlos Dansby Jibbalshar. That's three of their top five or

586
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: six defensive players, and teams have been running all over

587
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 1: I mean, Alfred Blue and Jonathan Grimes ran. I just

588
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 1: don't know what Atlanta on the grounds. That's not really

589
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: who they are anyways. That's true, but the Browns with

590
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,239
Speaker 1: those three defenders gone are probably only as bad as

591
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: the Panthers. And I watched Falcons Panthers this morning, actually

592
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: thinking that maybe I'll switch my pick over. You know,

593
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: we're split on this game. Anyways, if the Falcons look

594
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,800
Speaker 1: good and that was not an impressive result, you felt

595
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,719
Speaker 1: like the Falcons had chances to move the ball. They

596
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: did not really consistently move the ball at all. They

597
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 1: weren't gonna be a headache if not for picking off

598
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: Cam Newton a couple of times. You know, in the

599
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: right position. They don't look like the Falcon's offense that

600
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 1: you expect, and the defense, to me, is terrible. They

601
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 1: just happened to go up against an offense. It's even worse.

602
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: One exception, I wouldn't count on Josh Gordon going off

603
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: in this game is playing like a pro bowler. I

604
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: agree with you on Gordon. Then, also, I think this

605
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: if they are gonna they've talked for weeks about we're

606
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: gonna phase him in, which I don't think they're gonna

607
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: buy that if they find that he's on fire. But

608
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna get every snap. He couldn't

609
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: And as you've pointed out several times, um in other places,

610
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 1: the North Turners not running this off. Note. My point though,

611
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: is Roddy White's not quite Roddy White anymore. Yeah, their

612
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: offensive line is tattered to the point that they coach

613
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: around that they're that they're aiming for a very low ceiling,

614
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: and they have no running game. And when I put

615
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: all that together and the kind of mojo that Mark's

616
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: Brown's team has had, and I thought, you know, Atlanta

617
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 1: hasn't even won any games out of the division. Here

618
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: on their little streak, they just beat these other lousy

619
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: teams in the NFC South. That's why you go with

620
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: the Browns. By the way, we mentioned true Fonts playing

621
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: very well this year, but he is a bit of

622
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 1: a outlier for that secondary. The Falcons have allowed seven

623
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: yard receiving performances this season, second most in the NFL.

624
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: One last quick thing can be misleading. Calvin Benjamin had

625
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: more than under left yards last you ever think of that?

626
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 1: The research got this game in our power picks thing.

627
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 1: The sponsorship is shifting and it's over after this week

628
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 1: the power picks a couple of weeks. Oh well then

629
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: that then what I'm about saying makes no sense. But

630
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: I'm one game up on West and if if the

631
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: Falcons win, this segment ends with us tied forever. But

632
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 1: if the Browns drop a bomb on your Atlanta Falcons

633
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 1: in your little dome, Chris Wesley and I because it

634
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 1: given me he forgetting too excited about the hero pick

635
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 1: standings there all right, I picks one of them is sponsored.

636
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: Get behind this this gray vanilla Atlanta Falcons team playing indoors.

637
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: This is your this if Chris had been deciding this

638
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: would be the team of a t L the Falcons

639
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 1: from Atlantic. Really quickly drop this in because I think

640
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 1: we've collectively earned getting a sea legs back. All right?

641
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: Moving forward to Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Uh, they head to

642
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 1: Chicago to face the Bears. The Bears finally got back

643
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: on track with a decent performance and will win in

644
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: week eleven, and the Bucks. Bucks could be a little

645
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 1: frisky down the stretch at least that's how I feel. Uh.

646
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 1: McCown played really well last week. Mike Evans, I think

647
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: emerged as the front runner as offensive rookie of the year.

648
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,719
Speaker 1: I found uh, I found it interesting that he went

649
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: over a hundred yards three straight weeks with at least

650
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Nobody's done that since Randy Moss. So he's

651
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 1: playing very well. Um, Greg, I asked you, are you

652
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: a little bit uh in on the Bucks to finish

653
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: strong this year, or do you think they stink somewhere

654
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: in between. I think they'll win a couple of games

655
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: down the stretch. I think they're better than I don't

656
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 1: think they're the worst team in the league anymore. Uh.

657
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: Chris called them that early in the season. He thinks

658
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: they've gotten better. I agree with that. I thought about

659
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:25,959
Speaker 1: taking them this week, but Chicago's coming off an impressive performance,

660
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: and overall, the Bucks defense still pretty lousy, and I'm

661
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 1: not really buying into Charles Simms era at all. I'm

662
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: not buying into the Bears coming off and impressive perform.

663
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: Jay Cutler made four throws last week, basically three touchdowns

664
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 1: and one big play down deep inside the red zone.

665
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: All four came by throwing it up for grabs against

666
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 1: Josh Robinson, an undersized cornerback. And I'm just watching that

667
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: game thing and Russell Wilson would kill for these wide

668
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: receivers if you're just throw the ball up for grabs.

669
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: If you're a fan of the Bucks or you're a

670
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 1: fan of the Bears, who has the right to be

671
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: more deeply depressed the Bears? I think the Bears, because

672
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: they're they have that group for a while. I don't think.

673
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Trustman will wind up staying. But

674
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: you have Cutler in place, that that offensive nucleus is

675
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 1: sort of what it is. The Bears are stuck with

676
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 1: Cutler and the Bucks aren't. That's the difference to me.

677
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 1: The Bucks have good young talent, not a ton of it,

678
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: but they have Mike Evans, Gerald McCoy, Lavante David, three superstars.

679
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,320
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that right there, is better than what

680
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: that's more than most teams have for building blocks. Gerald

681
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 1: McCoy said yesterday that Mike Evans has no idea how

682
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 1: special he is, so I mean there's some definite building

683
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: blocks there. By the way we all picked the Bears

684
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: in this game, I might be switching my pick here.

685
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: I'm not sure about this. This feels strong to go

686
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: all Bears. I feel like we're asking for another zero.

687
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: Bears have killed me all season. I'm we're begging for

688
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 1: a zero. As great as mccount and Evans look last week,

689
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 1: Greg made a good point in the newsroom this week,

690
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 1: they didn't really move the chains or three points in

691
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: the first half. I mean offensively, the defense scored ten

692
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,800
Speaker 1: for the offensive line is still a major issue that

693
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 1: there's no running game to speak of. It's just a

694
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: few big places to make. Mike Evans, I could be

695
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 1: wrong by Charles Slim. Charles Sims looks like he's running

696
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 1: in slow motion. He cannot make a cut. He's definitely

697
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: not a guy that's gonna make you miss. But they

698
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: they have him running to the outside. It reminds me

699
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 1: of Toby Gerhardt and Jackson. They were so high on them,

700
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: but it's they haven't been able to really run the

701
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 1: ball year for the most part. Alright, moving on, this

702
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,399
Speaker 1: is our first game in the week that we're really

703
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 1: split on two and three. The Cincinnati Bengals, coming off

704
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,720
Speaker 1: that really nice win in the super Dome, now travel

705
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,280
Speaker 1: to Houston to face the Texans. The Texans hanging around

706
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 1: in the playoff race at five and five UM, and

707
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: now they get the Bengals, who got a better performance

708
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 1: from Dalton against the Saints. So it's still hard to

709
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 1: say what he's going to give you on a week

710
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 1: to week basis. As I said, we're split here with

711
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: I took the Bengals, as did Cessler. The Wrestler group

712
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: took the Texans West. Why did you go with the Texans,

713
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: a team that you have not been uh two in

714
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 1: on all season. They're playing against the Bengals. Yeah, I've

715
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: seen Andy Dalton against J. J. Watt before. Oh now

716
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 1: t D leaves, but that dropt remains. It's hard to

717
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:19,720
Speaker 1: evaluate Ryan Mallett because Bill O'Brien basically put training wheels

718
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: on him last week. Ran the ball fifty times. Mallett

719
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: had basically one read on every throw and he got

720
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 1: the ball out. When he got the ball out in

721
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: a second and a half, he was money. When he

722
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: get when he held the ball for more than two seconds,

723
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: he was useless. They had a lot of play actually

724
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 1: it actually looked like a Kyle Shanahan game plan. Yeah,

725
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 1: but they're not going able to run the ball the

726
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 1: way they did last week with with this much force.

727
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,359
Speaker 1: I mean they ran right through Cleveland and they there

728
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 1: was a lot of no huddle going on as well,

729
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: and Cleveland's defense was exhausted by the third quarter. I

730
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 1: mean you could see it. They just the game was over.

731
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,359
Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to be quite as easy

732
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: to do that on since he's defense. They took a

733
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 1: couple of shots at Mallet early, but they mostly missed him.

734
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,320
Speaker 1: They hit on one one big played at DeAndre Hopkins

735
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 1: picked off on one right and then and then they

736
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,439
Speaker 1: kind of just went with that short passing game because

737
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,240
Speaker 1: it was working. Why if you can run it fifty

738
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: four times and you know, pile up what did they

739
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: have last week? First downs? That's a huge total. I mean,

740
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 1: you might as well keep doing it. Andrew Johnson is

741
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 1: less receiving touchdowns and jj wat this season. He checked

742
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,319
Speaker 1: out about a month ago. I was checked out. That's

743
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: a that's a Hall of Fame player. You're imputing his

744
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about his entire career, but certainly he's

745
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: not happy. We know that for he hasn't been happy

746
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 1: since July. Well, NAO with Mallet, I mean he's happy

747
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 1: that Mallet's in there. He's doing just backflips. They're exponentially

748
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: less dull with Mallet in there. The last quarterback of

749
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,399
Speaker 1: his career is a match shop. That match job, who's

750
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 1: on a four game losing streak that he has not

751
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 1: engineered it, but he's just like ugly figure in the distance.

752
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,200
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton coming off his best game of the year.

753
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill career more carries. According to Hugh Jackson, it

754
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,760
Speaker 1: feels like a Saturday to well, you know, they should

755
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: just reschedule this game. Put it on NBC at three

756
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,320
Speaker 1: thirty on Saturday, just that for old time's sake, what

757
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: I mean, and watch Dalton throw it right into the

758
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 1: arms of J. J. Watt. That could happen. It's all

759
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: in play. We'll see what happens. Moving forward to Jacksonville Jaguars,

760
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 1: who are sitting at one and nine. I feel like

761
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: they've been one and nine through ten games for about

762
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:34,399
Speaker 1: twenty straight seasons now they are now has been three.

763
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: It's three straight there the first team. Ever, how about

764
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 1: some progress to have three straight seasons where they started

765
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 1: one or nine or worst. You know, we give the

766
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 1: Tennessee to tunes. I don't know who they are, but

767
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 1: we give them a lot of grief for being invisible.

768
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 1: How about we do something? Uh there, Jack's anyway, The

769
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: Jaguars move onto another execution, this time at Lucas Oil

770
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 1: state him against the India's Indianapolis colts, the cult who

771
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: you know what? I'm out on the cults, by the way,

772
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: after that performance on Sunday night, I cannot get excited

773
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: on them as anything other than the A F C.

774
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: South champions. I'm going to write that down. Write it down.

775
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 1: Please book it. Feel like you're an emotional guy, book it,

776
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: Greg Oh, because they are just not at the same level,

777
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 1: even close to the Patriots or the Broncos. So forget that.

778
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 1: But they'll take care of business against a crappy Jaguars team.

779
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: They beat up on bad teams. That's what they do.

780
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,240
Speaker 1: And that there's there's us have what a one percent

781
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 1: chance of winning this game? That sounds about right. And

782
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 1: by the way, beyond just me being a little annoyed

783
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:44,840
Speaker 1: by the Cults playing so poorly at home in primetime

784
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 1: on Sunday, they also lost in My Bradshow for the season,

785
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: and they didn't get involved with or they didn't successfully

786
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 1: obtain Legarrett Blunt or bent Hait. So it's a situation

787
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: where Trent Richardson's their guy. Yeah, and Trent Richardson last

788
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 1: week one seven carries zero yards and people were calling

789
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: it promising. I would not be that you think they're

790
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 1: gonna I would not be surprised to see more boom

791
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: hairing than Trent were just in the rest of the way.

792
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,800
Speaker 1: I mean, that would be smart. You gotta give somebody

793
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 1: enough of this charade. I mean, well, they tried to.

794
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: They put a waiver out on on Ben Taiton didn't

795
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 1: get them. The Jaguars did rally at the end of

796
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:23,879
Speaker 1: the last season, and I think Gus Bradley will be safe,

797
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 1: but you do want I'm starting to wonder whether he

798
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: needs to show a little something here down the stretch. Well,

799
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:31,880
Speaker 1: I you know what I mean over the summer, and

800
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 1: I will say that I was one of the people

801
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 1: in this room that fell hook line and sinker for

802
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: the idea of progress in Jacksonville. And it's just in wins.

803
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 1: I thought they would be a seven and nine, eight

804
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 1: and eight type team and make the leap. But you

805
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 1: know the thing is, every year there's four or five

806
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: teams to get a new coach and take a bad

807
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 1: roster to a ten win eleven win type season. It's

808
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: not what's not happening here. I don't know what it is,

809
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,439
Speaker 1: but but the honeymoon period has ended. If it didn't

810
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 1: end a year it and let's face it, we we

811
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: were really excited as a group about Blake Bortles and

812
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,840
Speaker 1: that hasn't quite worked out to this point. I know

813
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,359
Speaker 1: he's not in a great situation, but he you want,

814
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: you want these last six games. You want him to

815
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 1: really show you something, so they have something to be

816
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 1: excited about. The Jaguars are your lady in a red dress,

817
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: your fin fatale. His game against They've already broken your heart.

818
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 1: My heart is getting down to town with some flukey.

819
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: My heart is broken flunkey. Also that's a really bad thing.

820
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 1: All right. That's enough of that game. Moving on, the

821
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 1: green Bay Packers the best team in the NFL. The

822
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers head to Minnesota to face the vic

823
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: What greg best team in the NFL? I don't know.

824
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:51,240
Speaker 1: There's only one team that has trounced three other division

825
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,840
Speaker 1: leaders by a combined seventy points. You root for that boom.

826
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: The Packers, one of the just the middle of the

827
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,959
Speaker 1: pack team in the NFL, ahead to Minnesota to face

828
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:05,280
Speaker 1: the Vikings. The Packers sitting at seven three, tied atop

829
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:09,600
Speaker 1: the NFC north of the lines. The Vikings respectable four

830
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 1: and six considering uh the breaking in a rookie quarterback

831
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 1: and have no Adrian Peterson. They they obtained Bentate this week,

832
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,720
Speaker 1: so he's gonna be, I guess potentially in the attack

833
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: on some level. Maybe not this week, but as we

834
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 1: moved forward, Um, the Packers are unstoppable at lambeau Field,

835
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 1: it seems will the Vikings be able to put up

836
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 1: a fight in their building outdoor building. Well, this is

837
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,359
Speaker 1: the match up everyone's been waiting for, the rematch after

838
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 1: that ventilating the Thursday night affair and that they gave

839
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 1: us a few months back. Well, that game, and I'm

840
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 1: not calling this a major X factor, but that Teddy

841
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,000
Speaker 1: Bridgewater was not in that game. That was Christian Ponder,

842
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: I believe. Well, when when I mentioned that the Bears

843
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 1: had a convincing when last week, I wasn't talking just

844
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:54,800
Speaker 1: about the offense. I was talking about the fact that

845
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 1: the Vikings could only muster ten first down in two

846
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: forty yards against the Bears, and that had a decent

847
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 1: amount of yards and garbage time. I mean they were

848
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,320
Speaker 1: around a hundred and twenty five yards deep into the

849
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 1: second half there. It's pretty discouraging coming off a bye

850
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 1: week and all that that Teddy Bridgewater in that offense

851
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 1: hasn't gotten a little better. Can I offer you guys

852
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: a little bit of buzz on Packers v. Greg Jennings

853
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 1: four Go for it, go forward, Go forward. Do you

854
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,800
Speaker 1: think Greg Jennings is still talking trash about the Packers,

855
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: but now just no one pays attention. Hopefully. He was

856
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: quite outspoken. I think he thought maybe he was a

857
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 1: bigger piece of that puzzle in Green Bay. He thought

858
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: he could still play, and it has not worked out.

859
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 1: So we we all have and keep an eye again

860
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: on that great tandem Jordy Nelson Randall Cobb, who are

861
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,840
Speaker 1: have about a hundred fifteen combined catches for seventeen hundred

862
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,800
Speaker 1: yards and nineteen touchdowns. There's some crazy stuff going on.

863
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 1: And at Eddie Lacy, who was really starting to warm

864
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 1: up now up to four point two yards of carrying five.

865
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,959
Speaker 1: This game will nothing and it will not be thirty

866
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 1: one nothing in favor of Minnesota. Gold Standard is a

867
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: Packers fan here, I mean, are what are you? What

868
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 1: are you thinking about this team right now? You're getting excited.

869
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 1: I I sort of try and stay even keel until

870
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: they collapse at home in the playoffs, to like, what

871
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 1: do you think about Greg Jennings at this point? I

872
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:21,800
Speaker 1: mean younger, I'm a bigger fan of Madden Greg Jennings

873
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 1: than real life Greg Jennings. But I don't let this

874
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: Greg Jennings narrative steer you off course from what's really

875
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 1: going on. The Charles Johnson revenge game Thank You, originally

876
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 1: drafted by the Packers. Keep an eye on that, everybody

877
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 1: but gold standard. What would you rather watch? Your beloved

878
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: Packers or the British show Big Brother? If a bunch

879
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 1: of the former cast members played soccer in an alley

880
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: was televised, what would you watch? I think I'm gonna

881
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 1: have to lean towards Packers, but it's really class gonna.

882
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,720
Speaker 1: I just want to see how far soccer goes sprinkle

883
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:59,200
Speaker 1: in some soccer anyway you can. Alright, moving on, we

884
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:03,279
Speaker 1: all got the Packer is they're obviously Greg's boys. The Patriots,

885
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,839
Speaker 1: who are really an unstoppable juggernaut right now now eight

886
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 1: and two, that is how many in a row now,

887
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 1: six six, six straight wins. This is going to be

888
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,200
Speaker 1: a challenge of because the Detroit Lions are coming to town.

889
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: The seven and three lines obviously have some really nice players.

890
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 1: The Patriots are are playing at such a high level

891
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 1: that though I find it hard to imagine them getting beat,

892
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 1: especially in their own building, at this stage, they're in

893
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,800
Speaker 1: one of those classic Patriots regular season roles where it

894
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,279
Speaker 1: just it seems to come easy to them. Great, you

895
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 1: have to be feeling confident about this game. I do,

896
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: because I think that they have different ways that you

897
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 1: can beat Detroit's defense. I don't think this is and

898
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: it's the best defense in the league on paper and overall,

899
00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,160
Speaker 1: I would agree with it. But I think they can

900
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 1: just spread them out, dinking dunk. They're not going to

901
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,880
Speaker 1: try to run the ball, and everyone that you know,

902
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,359
Speaker 1: got two hundred yards out of Jonas Gray last week

903
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 1: will probably wind up like thirty. And they'll give la

904
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 1: Garrett Blunt, who they now signed, you know, they'll probably

905
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 1: give him some carries to just to you know, mess

906
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 1: with the fantasy owners. It's really Detroit's defense that I

907
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,400
Speaker 1: really don't trust at all at this point. Like I

908
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 1: think the Patriots could lose to any team that can

909
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,560
Speaker 1: be explosive, and I don't think the Lions are that

910
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 1: team anywhere. Do you mean they're offense their offense, Yeah,

911
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 1: I mean I'm saying I just don't think the lines

912
00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:19,279
Speaker 1: are in above average offense. Well they're not a but

913
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 1: I think Detroit's offense has to be if you want

914
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:26,240
Speaker 1: to pick top five most disappointing, you know, offensive defensive

915
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 1: units from what we thought they would be and what

916
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 1: they looked like on paper before the season. In Detroit's

917
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 1: offense has been a disaster. And what went wrong because

918
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:35,560
Speaker 1: you still have Stafford is I don't think they can

919
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,879
Speaker 1: run the ball. That's start with. We haven't gotten Yeah,

920
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,400
Speaker 1: the running games an issue. I think one thing to

921
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 1: keep a eye on is Megatron and Tate have not

922
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 1: really been on the field healthy together too much. I

923
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 1: could see that doing wonders. If they're able to both

924
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:49,359
Speaker 1: get on the same page, you get going, but without

925
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 1: a running game, it's gonna limit them. I think they

926
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: thought Eric Ebron would have been a factor at least

927
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,480
Speaker 1: by mid season, and he hasn't been. And they just played,

928
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 1: my opinion, the best secondary in the league in one

929
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,839
Speaker 1: of the hardest places to play list week and they

930
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 1: played Miami the week they played Miami the week before.

931
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 1: The Patriots have a great secondary, So this is gonna

932
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,680
Speaker 1: be another test. I've sort of adopted the Lions earlier summer.

933
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: The thrill is gone. Really yeah, I'm I can't take

934
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 1: Jim colbwell, he has no balls. Mm hmmm, mm hmm,

935
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:20,360
Speaker 1: I can't. I'm Stafford's the guy I wrote, uh for

936
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,960
Speaker 1: a piece today. He's the most frustrating quarterback in the

937
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,320
Speaker 1: league for me to watch. He gets a pass for

938
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,600
Speaker 1: whatever reason compared to some of the other quarterbacks. But

939
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:31,719
Speaker 1: he's He's just Jake Cutler a couple of years younger.

940
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:33,480
Speaker 1: It's not like it's not like Jake Cutler is a

941
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 1: worse quarterback than Matthew Stafford. Everyone's waiting for that potential

942
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 1: or whatever. Matthew Stafford to me, is like a slow

943
00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick. Basically about four or five good plays a game.

944
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: I think, to me, he is Jay Cutler, but with

945
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 1: a flair for the dramatics. So he's made enough big

946
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:49,840
Speaker 1: plays near the end of the game's big drive, signature

947
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 1: plays that are captured on NFL films that kind of

948
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,160
Speaker 1: make you get sucked in a little bit more. Maybe

949
00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,359
Speaker 1: the Cutler doesn't have that type of stuff. But you're right.

950
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,839
Speaker 1: The inconsistencies as a lion Span and Kevin Patrick, We've

951
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 1: talked about it so many times on the podcast with him. Uh,

952
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,920
Speaker 1: he just drives people crazy there. I just look at

953
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 1: a Patriots team where this wasn't the case before. You

954
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 1: have got to win a shootout and you've got to

955
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:14,840
Speaker 1: outscore the Patriots and score forty something points that Denver

956
00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 1: Broncos could not do that. And Andrew Luck and the

957
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 1: Colts could not do that with that offense. The Detroit

958
00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 1: Lions will not do that. Especially. I don't like all

959
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,840
Speaker 1: this confidence now that well a little much. It's a

960
00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 1: little mitch. Barely anyone picked them against Denver. We were

961
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 1: split against the Colts. I don't like all this. This

962
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 1: is usually when things go bad. Well, it's time for

963
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 1: the listener to nail us with some verbal comments that

964
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 1: we got wrong. If we do, has to stop coaching

965
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 1: not to lose. Right, that's what you chi. That one

966
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:50,840
Speaker 1: was way worse than the ball's line West. You should

967
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 1: have went out on top. Alright, Moving on, we all

968
00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:57,879
Speaker 1: took the Patriots. Obviously. The Tennessee I don't I didn't

969
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 1: know how to pronounce this. It was an now fit

970
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 1: once known as the Houston Oilers. They moved to Nashville

971
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,319
Speaker 1: and they are the Tennessee Titans. How dare you Dan?

972
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 1: While you were in at work on Monday night, was

973
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:14,160
Speaker 1: mocking the Tennessee Titans and their fan base. They were

974
00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 1: providing us with quite possibly the best primetime game of

975
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 1: the year, which it wasn't a game. I know, we

976
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,839
Speaker 1: haven't had a lot of good ones. It was fun,

977
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: it was Baber made made some plays against the Steelers

978
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: put them in position to win. They weren't able to

979
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:34,919
Speaker 1: close it out, so you know, close out a game,

980
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,759
Speaker 1: especially in your building before we're gonna know who you are.

981
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 1: But at the same time, they there is some progress

982
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: in there, at least a little more exciting to watch,

983
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 1: uh as opposed to clipboard Jesus or Jake Locker. So

984
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: he earned Mettenberger earned the tryout. But this is not

985
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,319
Speaker 1: going to go well against the Eagles, I don't think.

986
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 1: But then again, an Eagles team that just gave up

987
00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:59,719
Speaker 1: what fifty I'm definitely not going to get in on

988
00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: a Titans team winning on the road was Zach Mettenberger.

989
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,560
Speaker 1: But I'll be very interested to see Sanchez part three.

990
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,759
Speaker 1: He played great, played great one week, was not so

991
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 1: hot the next week. So let's see where Sanchez comes

992
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:15,360
Speaker 1: down in this and then then what other thing I

993
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,279
Speaker 1: want to throw out to you guys. Lashawn McCoy came

994
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,360
Speaker 1: out and said this week that there is no difference

995
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 1: between the Lashawn McCoy of two thousand fourteen and the

996
00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,719
Speaker 1: two thousand thirteen McCoy who won the rushing title. Uh,

997
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 1: you guys have been watching the tape your football heads.

998
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 1: Is he right? Is it just a bad kind of

999
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 1: some bad luck and things have not worked out for him? Well?

1000
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,359
Speaker 1: I think I think I've heard Mark make this point

1001
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 1: that with rushing attacks last year really means nothing. It's

1002
00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 1: it's all so symbiotic. It's based on how the offensive

1003
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:48,600
Speaker 1: line is playing, how the quarterbacks playing, and it all

1004
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 1: has to get in the same rhythm. You have to

1005
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:52,360
Speaker 1: have the running back looking for the right hole. And

1006
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:54,879
Speaker 1: he's had so many different adjustments on the offensive line

1007
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: this year, they've never been able to get into it.

1008
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 1: So is he's still moving like I think it is

1009
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,919
Speaker 1: much more that there have been so many switches up front.

1010
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 1: I mean, they're they had no injuries last season, that

1011
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:07,320
Speaker 1: Eagles team, to the point where Reverend said, oh, you know,

1012
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 1: Chip Kelly, he's cracked the code on sports science and

1013
00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 1: the Eagles have figured out how to go through in

1014
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,640
Speaker 1: the NFL season without anyone getting hurt. Well, this year

1015
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,040
Speaker 1: they've had more injuries than tons of teams. I mean,

1016
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,439
Speaker 1: it's completely the opposite. And even when they get Jason

1017
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 1: Kelsey back, he was like, Okay, now everything's fine. Well,

1018
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 1: he hasn't played very well because that happened sometimes when

1019
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 1: you're coming off a serious injury and you're rushing back

1020
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 1: on the field. I mean, if you watch them against Green, hey,

1021
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:31,640
Speaker 1: he was a big part of the problem. I think

1022
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,560
Speaker 1: that's what McCoy is saying is you guys don't get it.

1023
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:35,720
Speaker 1: It's not it's not that I'm a completely different player

1024
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 1: or I'm not as faster or whatever. It's like he

1025
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 1: is but not in the system. On the subject of

1026
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 1: metten Burger, Greg, there's some NFL media beeflash heat. I

1027
00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:49,239
Speaker 1: love that coming from one of the great NFL Now

1028
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 1: contributors we work with, hosts, Mark is Took, who read

1029
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 1: something that you wrote this week where you said that,

1030
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 1: uh metten Burger's first game against Houston was one of

1031
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 1: the worst of the season and you're mind he had.

1032
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:03,080
Speaker 1: He took issue with that. He said he went back

1033
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,880
Speaker 1: and watched the tape and disagreed and said that maybe

1034
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 1: you should have been getting a little more fair to me.

1035
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 1: Couldn't be more wrong here. Okay, he's crazy. Maybe he's

1036
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,880
Speaker 1: thinking of the second game, the first game he was

1037
00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: an absolute disaster. That's what Chris came down really hard

1038
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,480
Speaker 1: at him too in the podcast, and I couldn't disagree.

1039
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 1: But the last two games have been better each time.

1040
00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 1: For the record, this took a great guy. Okay. I

1041
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 1: enjoyed eight NFL and our appearances with Look, Mark, you

1042
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 1: know you get if you're gonna come at us, coming

1043
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 1: with something a little stronger. This is a direct coorphemistic.

1044
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,320
Speaker 1: Just watched all his passes from that Houston game. Not

1045
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 1: great by any stretch, but not terrible. Overthrew a bunch

1046
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 1: of guys, but also saw make some decent progression reads,

1047
00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:46,240
Speaker 1: hit his check down a lot for some balls in coverage,

1048
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,479
Speaker 1: but well to be able to hit his check down.

1049
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 1: But Monday night, were you at least impressed with him

1050
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,680
Speaker 1: compared to earlier comments? That's on. He gave that often

1051
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:58,800
Speaker 1: some life. But he didn't have to pick six. It

1052
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 1: was no, no, it was not, it was He was great.

1053
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 1: My one take away from this game, My biggest memory

1054
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:09,400
Speaker 1: is Mike Tariko going absolutely wild about a running back

1055
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:11,600
Speaker 1: who rushed for thirty eight yards at three point five

1056
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:16,239
Speaker 1: yards per carry Bishops Like, I love how this guy

1057
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: moves as he gets dragged down was nine yards and like,

1058
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,960
Speaker 1: what is this to Rico guying thank you? Overall has

1059
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,320
Speaker 1: not been impressive. I think that that that maybe that

1060
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 1: one drive where they went down the field and answered

1061
00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,799
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh that was it, But then there wasn't much else.

1062
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:35,440
Speaker 1: Their defense under Ray Horton has gotten a hint of

1063
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:41,200
Speaker 1: getting a little more dangerous lately. It's exactly like defense

1064
00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,400
Speaker 1: in Cleveland last year. Though they were pretty good against

1065
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:45,920
Speaker 1: Baltimore the week before they really had it was that

1066
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,879
Speaker 1: game was seven seven in the fourth pass rush bill

1067
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: the Skies and they get heat on the quarterback, but

1068
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:54,120
Speaker 1: then they give up thirty eight points and five hundred yards.

1069
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:58,560
Speaker 1: Next up to Washington, Redskins head to San Francisco to

1070
00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:00,839
Speaker 1: face the forty Niners. Just not feel like a good

1071
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 1: spot for Robert Grip in the third after a week

1072
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:08,040
Speaker 1: of controversy. Now heads two Levi's Stadium, and I know

1073
00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:10,200
Speaker 1: the Niners haven't been that great there this year, but

1074
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,640
Speaker 1: it seems to me a Niners team that's you imagine

1075
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,359
Speaker 1: is going to get right and make a nice run

1076
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,359
Speaker 1: towards ten or eleven wins. Uh now gets to face

1077
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:20,560
Speaker 1: a Redskins team that you know it's very bad. Team

1078
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:23,640
Speaker 1: just got beat handily by the Bucks in their own building,

1079
00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 1: and now it gets to face the Niners. Uh wes

1080
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:30,400
Speaker 1: you you as I am, both were off the r

1081
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:34,320
Speaker 1: G three bandwagon. How grim and how ugly can it

1082
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 1: get for the quarterback in San Francisco? I have no

1083
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:40,560
Speaker 1: confidence in him anymore. Greg had a really good quarterback

1084
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,480
Speaker 1: index today and he saw the exact same thing I

1085
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:45,800
Speaker 1: saw from RG three. There's no structure to the passing

1086
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:50,879
Speaker 1: game whatsoever. It's all checkdowns, screens and the most off

1087
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,840
Speaker 1: target hot routes, hot route throws ever seen. When the

1088
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:55,960
Speaker 1: blitz comes and you have to dump it immediately, he

1089
00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,160
Speaker 1: wasn't even coming close. He takes forever to make a decision.

1090
00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 1: He's not reading the yield. He's too reckless with his

1091
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:05,879
Speaker 1: body still and his his footwork fundamentals are off off

1092
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,600
Speaker 1: to the point, as Greg pointed out, he's hopping while

1093
00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:11,040
Speaker 1: he throws now and he has no feel for it,

1094
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,920
Speaker 1: and it's hard to describe. Like Alex Smith is a

1095
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:16,719
Speaker 1: guy that has a great feel when there's pressure around him.

1096
00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:19,919
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson is a great comparison for r G three.

1097
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,560
Speaker 1: Like he knows when to run, he knows where the

1098
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:24,840
Speaker 1: pressure is coming from. R G three will hold it

1099
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:27,040
Speaker 1: forever and just stick in the pocket when he shouldn't,

1100
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,279
Speaker 1: and it will run out to the side immediately when

1101
00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:31,359
Speaker 1: this first guy isn't covered. Other times, it's like there's

1102
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,200
Speaker 1: no rhyme or reason. There's something real sad to watching

1103
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:36,440
Speaker 1: the way he moves around in the pocket and try

1104
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 1: to escape the RUSS. It's like he has two left

1105
00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:41,480
Speaker 1: feet now. He's never seems to be balanced, like you're saying,

1106
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,200
Speaker 1: he's always throwing off the wrong foot, or just seems

1107
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:48,200
Speaker 1: to be hopping. There's just a weird mechanic situation. And

1108
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,240
Speaker 1: I I won't proclaim to know how the the internal

1109
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:56,080
Speaker 1: structure being a quarterback works, but there, I mean, you've

1110
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:58,960
Speaker 1: been there. I am a super Bowl champion. But I

1111
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:01,960
Speaker 1: will say that as bad as these mechanics are, it's

1112
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 1: either on the coaching or it's on the player that

1113
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:06,560
Speaker 1: isn't putting in the time, because it seems like a

1114
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:10,680
Speaker 1: guy has no fundamental sound aspect to his game anymore.

1115
00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:13,879
Speaker 1: I think it's also if you're r G three, if

1116
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 1: you have any ability to read between the lines, because

1117
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 1: we've all seen this do that that's possibly true except

1118
00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:24,200
Speaker 1: that it's so clear dating back to September and October,

1119
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,759
Speaker 1: that Gruden does not see him as the quarterback of

1120
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 1: the future for his offense. Well, he doesn't even have

1121
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:32,720
Speaker 1: to read between the lines where to hear Gruden's words

1122
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:35,320
Speaker 1: from this week, right, But if you're a young quarterback,

1123
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:37,719
Speaker 1: I mean, and you don't have the support of your

1124
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:41,239
Speaker 1: coaches or your locker room, then you're everything else can

1125
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 1: start to waterfall from there. And in this week, he's

1126
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:47,360
Speaker 1: got such a tough matchup. I mean, this forty Niners

1127
00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 1: defense has quietly turned into one of the best defenses

1128
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,640
Speaker 1: in the league. I mean, the offense has a lot

1129
00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 1: of problems, but they've suddenly added Alden Smith, who looked

1130
00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:58,840
Speaker 1: great in his first week back, because one of the

1131
00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:02,399
Speaker 1: best defensive players league. They've essentially added Chris Borland, who

1132
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 1: would be my pick for defensive Rookie of the Year

1133
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 1: and is one of the best in his position in

1134
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:09,400
Speaker 1: the league. Antoine Bethets and all pro type of player.

1135
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,359
Speaker 1: This year, you got a mod Brooks coming up. I mean,

1136
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 1: it's a very good looking defense. Now. Aaron Lynch is

1137
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:17,080
Speaker 1: playing really well. You found him when you look at

1138
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,160
Speaker 1: the forty Niners, you have to credit Trent Balki for

1139
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 1: them being six and four, and then look at the

1140
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:24,320
Speaker 1: Falcons for being a bad team. Dimitrov, who I think

1141
00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:28,520
Speaker 1: is a good GM. He's got more undrafted players contributing

1142
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 1: to starting line upon second and third round draft picks.

1143
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 1: And you look at the forty Niners and the fact

1144
00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 1: that Balky has made so many trades to collect draft picks,

1145
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 1: and they survive all these injuries because you can plug

1146
00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: in a Borland and a Lynch and they're starting center.

1147
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:45,600
Speaker 1: And now they've got Marcus Martin. They're just plugging all

1148
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,600
Speaker 1: these draft picks from second to fifth round in there

1149
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 1: and keep and they keep right on going. And people

1150
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,600
Speaker 1: forget that San Francisco out of the gate last year

1151
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,360
Speaker 1: caught a lot of heat and people said they weren't

1152
00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 1: the same team they were. They went their six and

1153
00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 1: four last year and went on that hot run where

1154
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,480
Speaker 1: they're defense started to peek heavily down the street. I

1155
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,000
Speaker 1: think they I don't know called save their season, but

1156
00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 1: I think they sort of defined their season with that

1157
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,160
Speaker 1: last little two game run they had in New Orleans

1158
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:12,160
Speaker 1: in New York, going through getting those two wins on

1159
00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 1: the road. I think they're set up to do it

1160
00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:17,120
Speaker 1: because they've they've somehow survived a very lame offense. Yeah,

1161
00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:19,560
Speaker 1: in a boring offense, which is not how I thought

1162
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 1: about this. When the Redskins give up on r G

1163
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: three after the season, which teams believes they'll be able

1164
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,480
Speaker 1: to save him, and then installs him as a starter

1165
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:32,680
Speaker 1: next August Ken Wizzen Hunt in the Titans. How about

1166
00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans? How about the Cleveland Browns? WHOA, I

1167
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:43,040
Speaker 1: don't think anybody. I don't Shanahan in Cleveland, alright, Moving

1168
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 1: on the Jets, I can see that that is that's

1169
00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 1: a disaster drama, that makes too much sense. That's why

1170
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. And they keep Rex Ryan to The

1171
00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys are going to the Meadowlands to face the Giants.

1172
00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 1: The Giants have lost uh five games in a row.

1173
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,440
Speaker 1: They are done. Stick a fork in them, uh, and

1174
00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:05,280
Speaker 1: they have been. The fork has been stuck in them.

1175
00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 1: According to the Round, the NFL team, the Dallas Cowboys

1176
00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:10,640
Speaker 1: coming off their bye week, which gave Tony Romo a

1177
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:13,760
Speaker 1: much needed week of rest. He has those uh, the

1178
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 1: two fractures in the small of his back or whatever

1179
00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:19,560
Speaker 1: it is. So he gets he got got some time off,

1180
00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:22,120
Speaker 1: so Jerry Jones said this week that it did wonders

1181
00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:25,560
Speaker 1: for Romo. Uh, we imagine they're gonna have no problem

1182
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:31,919
Speaker 1: moving the ball against the Giants team that stanks. I'm

1183
00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 1: not sure what else we need to say about this game.

1184
00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:36,320
Speaker 1: That was well done. We're split on this game. I mean,

1185
00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:41,080
Speaker 1: are we really yeah? I believe the Mr Christopher Wesley

1186
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 1: and are really Chicago correspondent both ways? Why did the

1187
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 1: Giants beat the Cowboys in the spot? Well, I don't

1188
00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:51,200
Speaker 1: think the Cowboys uh defense is very good. They haven't

1189
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,360
Speaker 1: been that good all year. They've been helped out by

1190
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,880
Speaker 1: an offense that's on the field a lot. Giants defense

1191
00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: played pretty well against the forty Honors last week, and

1192
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 1: I really need to pick up a game on I

1193
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 1: was gonna say the smack of desperation because you just

1194
01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:07,200
Speaker 1: picked Eli Manning in a big spot to potential though,

1195
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:10,080
Speaker 1: and he wrote a great piece about this player downstairs,

1196
01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:14,520
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham. Odell Beckham has me excited. I think he's

1197
01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 1: the cream of the rookie wide receiver crop. I think

1198
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:18,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna have a better career than Mike Evans and

1199
01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins and the guy that I keep picturing when

1200
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:27,040
Speaker 1: I watch Adell Beckham play. It's gonna sound crazy, es

1201
01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 1: Era Michael Jordan's who it's interesting. Not for the size,

1202
01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:34,360
Speaker 1: and I don't know if he's got any kind of

1203
01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:36,400
Speaker 1: late game clutch in him. He doesn't like put the

1204
01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 1: team on his back. But the in air, dexterity, in improvisation.

1205
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:46,280
Speaker 1: He's creative with his body and there a ball control

1206
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:50,280
Speaker 1: with his hands are really strong. He's physical, just that

1207
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: easy leaping ability. He's he's a world class athlete. Every

1208
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 1: time Odell Beckham takes the field, he's the best athlete

1209
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 1: on the field. That's why he's the mailman. He might

1210
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:03,440
Speaker 1: have Beckham. That was Karl Malone. Now I'm confused, Christ

1211
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 1: and that's an I love that comparison, thank you. I

1212
01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:09,800
Speaker 1: thought it was going to be seen as a stretch. No.

1213
01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:12,440
Speaker 1: I like that. I like the hands are a good car.

1214
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:14,560
Speaker 1: It all, It all adds up. He might have the

1215
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,120
Speaker 1: best Does he have a chance to have the best

1216
01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:18,760
Speaker 1: hands in the NFL? I mean just that little pregame

1217
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 1: thing they showed on ESPN was insane with Larry Fitzgerald,

1218
01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 1: just the commercial with the camera in his head. Yeah,

1219
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:30,200
Speaker 1: his pregame routine. Was Beckham active when the Giants went

1220
01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:33,040
Speaker 1: to Dallas earlier this season. I believe he was. I

1221
01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 1: think he had just started out. He hadn't gotten into

1222
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 1: his stride. Their offense played pretty well in that game.

1223
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:40,480
Speaker 1: They moved the ball, they scored. It was really one

1224
01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 1: play where Larry Dunelle fumbled it that threw that game away.

1225
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,280
Speaker 1: At that at that point, the Giants offense was moving

1226
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 1: the ball pretty well. It's not that crazy to think

1227
01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:52,920
Speaker 1: that they always beat the Cowboys. Eli Manning lost all

1228
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 1: faith in his offensive line last week, and in my

1229
01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 1: notes I have Charles Brown, come on, man, give that

1230
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:03,280
Speaker 1: a lot to say that there he came in at

1231
01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:05,640
Speaker 1: tackle and there's one player with a guy. He just

1232
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:09,520
Speaker 1: put his hands down and the guy ran around. It's

1233
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:12,320
Speaker 1: that time of year. We also don't know, it is

1234
01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:14,720
Speaker 1: worth mentioning we don't know what Tony Romo status is

1235
01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:16,240
Speaker 1: at all, because the last time we saw him on

1236
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:19,840
Speaker 1: the field, they it was like a very tough, mature performance.

1237
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:22,200
Speaker 1: But he clearly wasn't himself and he was not close

1238
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,360
Speaker 1: to well. You talk about a team where the bye

1239
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:27,240
Speaker 1: week he did a perfect time. Romo and DeMarco Murray

1240
01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:29,480
Speaker 1: Dan's going crazy. He wants to move on from the segment.

1241
01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:33,080
Speaker 1: Move on, No, I'm just saying the bye week a

1242
01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 1: lot of times come everyone complains about when their teams

1243
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:38,520
Speaker 1: by is DeMarco Murray gets a perfect time to rest

1244
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:41,240
Speaker 1: for the stretch run. In Romo, he looked like a

1245
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:44,000
Speaker 1: wooden figure, a man made out of things that aren't human.

1246
01:02:44,040 --> 01:02:46,360
Speaker 1: In that last game. He's back too good. I bet'll

1247
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:48,160
Speaker 1: be fine. I don't know if he isn't. The way

1248
01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:50,800
Speaker 1: Jason Garrett looks, he probably think, well, we saved a

1249
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:53,560
Speaker 1: week for Murray last week. Let's give him forty five

1250
01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:57,000
Speaker 1: carries this week. Keep talking about giants, Dallas, just keep

1251
01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:00,560
Speaker 1: going on the set. I think it was. It was good.

1252
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:03,400
Speaker 1: Chat West knows how much I like Odell Beckham because

1253
01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:06,760
Speaker 1: today I put together a nice little video that highlighted

1254
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:11,120
Speaker 1: his strengths and suitability to be in a seventies buddy

1255
01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:13,160
Speaker 1: cop drama. If you see the video, you'll understand what

1256
01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:17,440
Speaker 1: standard puts some high octane seventies funk music too. Did

1257
01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:20,800
Speaker 1: you compose it yourself? I wouldn't be surprised your renaissance.

1258
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:25,120
Speaker 1: We are filibustering too, annoy Dan, All right, here we go.

1259
01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:27,680
Speaker 1: We are now going to move on to the final game.

1260
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:29,800
Speaker 1: It looks like we're going to have a second Monday

1261
01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:32,800
Speaker 1: night game potentially the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills

1262
01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:36,200
Speaker 1: were supposed to play an Orchard Park, but mother Nature

1263
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:40,400
Speaker 1: intervened dropped seven thousand feet UH worth of snow on

1264
01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:43,160
Speaker 1: the region. That is an estimate, so they are not

1265
01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,400
Speaker 1: going to play in Buffalo. As of taping of this

1266
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,520
Speaker 1: podcast either, they're saying that the game could be moved

1267
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 1: to Monday, that it might be played in an alternate site,

1268
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:53,400
Speaker 1: maybe Detroit. So all this stuff will probably come into

1269
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:55,440
Speaker 1: focus by the time you listen to the show. But

1270
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:57,040
Speaker 1: all we do know is that it's not going to

1271
01:03:57,120 --> 01:04:00,280
Speaker 1: be in Buffalo, and they've had to mix things up

1272
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,600
Speaker 1: because of the weather. So the Bills, it would seem

1273
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:04,840
Speaker 1: or at a quite a disadvantage of a time where

1274
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:06,680
Speaker 1: they need this win to stay in the a f

1275
01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:10,400
Speaker 1: C West uh in the a f C Wildcard race

1276
01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:13,560
Speaker 1: against the Jets team that's playing out the string. We're

1277
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,240
Speaker 1: still going to talk about this game and about snow

1278
01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:22,160
Speaker 1: Apocalypse ended it. What do you mean, It's still gonna

1279
01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:23,960
Speaker 1: be played and we're gonna and you know, people that

1280
01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:26,400
Speaker 1: love dome games are gonna get too dome games on

1281
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,160
Speaker 1: prime time. On one night, I really was contribused because

1282
01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:30,760
Speaker 1: I thought once we got to the Sunday night game,

1283
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:33,880
Speaker 1: we were done. That was over. Forgot this could be

1284
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:36,640
Speaker 1: the Monday night game. I picked the Jet to win

1285
01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:38,479
Speaker 1: this game even before I found out about the snow,

1286
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,520
Speaker 1: as did I. It feels weird to make your pick

1287
01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:44,120
Speaker 1: based on the lack of practice and the snow factor,

1288
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,080
Speaker 1: though anyways, who knows. Maybe that's also kind of unprecedented, though,

1289
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:49,440
Speaker 1: so you would think it would probably be an issue, right.

1290
01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:51,320
Speaker 1: You got a lot of Bills players that have been

1291
01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:52,960
Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but are you ever in

1292
01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:55,440
Speaker 1: college or whatever you get snowed in or something for

1293
01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:57,440
Speaker 1: like four straight days? What are you doing? What are

1294
01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:00,640
Speaker 1: these Bills players aren't downlifting weights. They're probably cracking a

1295
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:07,000
Speaker 1: few beers playing Nintendo. Whatever they're doing, they're not preparing

1296
01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:11,360
Speaker 1: for this. I'm ready for the Bill's defensive line to end.

1297
01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:13,640
Speaker 1: One of the dumber narratives of the year, which is

1298
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:16,680
Speaker 1: the what if Michael Vick had just been starting since

1299
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,320
Speaker 1: we three narrative? Oh yeah, they would have won the

1300
01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:22,520
Speaker 1: super Bowl because there's nothing safer than just strapping Mike

1301
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,080
Speaker 1: Vick into your starting job and everything will be fine.

1302
01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:28,120
Speaker 1: Smooth sailing. By the way, if we re round back

1303
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:30,120
Speaker 1: to August when you guys are pushing hard for me

1304
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:33,760
Speaker 1: to be the starter of the playoff guy. But but

1305
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:36,640
Speaker 1: the truth, I mean, honestly, the Jets. The worst thing

1306
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:38,240
Speaker 1: that could happen to the Jets is that they finished

1307
01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:40,920
Speaker 1: strong this year in terms of maybe getting a quarterback

1308
01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:43,200
Speaker 1: in this draft. So this is as the Jets, and

1309
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:45,400
Speaker 1: I'm conflicted watching these games now, which is not the

1310
01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:46,880
Speaker 1: way you want to be able to watch games as

1311
01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:48,520
Speaker 1: a fan, but that's the way it is. I think

1312
01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:51,200
Speaker 1: we uh west and I took the Jets. The rest

1313
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:54,320
Speaker 1: of the Bills and the people of western New York.

1314
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:58,160
Speaker 1: If I'm listening to this, hopefully you're safe and had

1315
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 1: a reason. I hate the UM ten games behind you,

1316
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:04,880
Speaker 1: because now I'm forced to talk myself into things like

1317
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 1: the Jets offense can get on the stretch. It is beautiful.

1318
01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:10,840
Speaker 1: You did pick up the win in Kansas City, so

1319
01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:14,880
Speaker 1: you know you. So I don't think I picked up

1320
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,200
Speaker 1: a win there, No, you didn't. The Jets. The Jets

1321
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:21,000
Speaker 1: got just I can talk myself into anything and it's

1322
01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:26,320
Speaker 1: not a good. So that is the Sunday and Monday

1323
01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:30,440
Speaker 1: schedule of the NFL. We will be back on Wednesday.

1324
01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,680
Speaker 1: Excuse me, I'm looking ahead already too deep into week

1325
01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:36,240
Speaker 1: their team. We will be back on Sunday where we

1326
01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:38,960
Speaker 1: will go over all these games and uh and talk

1327
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:41,600
Speaker 1: about Mark's great victories in life, which I'm sure there

1328
01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:45,840
Speaker 1: will be many from now until then countless. So that's it.

1329
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:47,560
Speaker 1: That's it for the show. Thank you to the gold

1330
