John Middlecoff Three and Out 35 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 1: podcast just watched a little Sunday Night football, Kirk Cousins 36 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,839 Speaker 1: looking like Peyton Manning. What a performance by the new 37 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: Atlantic quarterback coming off in Achilles, throw us for over 38 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: five hundred yards and just eviscerated Tampa. Baker Mayfield was 39 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: no slouch either, He was really good and just a 40 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: crazy fourth quarter fumbles fourth and fifteen which was pretty insane, 41 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: some penalties and then they had to pump back and 42 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: go over it all. Obviously, overtime I do. I don't 43 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: have the right answer for overtime, and I'm not like 44 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: super worked up about a touchdown wins the game. But 45 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. Shouldn't we just make the same thing universal, 46 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: Like overtime in the playoffs is the same as the 47 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: regular season. Is anyone gonna complain about that? I get 48 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: long season, and it's just the playoffs a somewhat different. 49 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: But in football, all these games matter, you know. I 50 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: would Tampa have ever been able to stop anybody? Probably not, 51 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,839 Speaker 1: so it might not even have mattered. But I don't know, 52 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: what a what a crazy night though, I'm not gonna 53 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: let We're not going to dive into that. So we'll 54 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: dive into Baker, We'll dive into Cousins. We'll also dive 55 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: into uh, you know these wide receivers. Is trading for 56 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 1: a wide receiver even good business in twenty twenty four? 57 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: Don't we have enough evidence that it doesn't change that 58 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: much paying premiums and trading a lot for them. Obviously 59 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: huge game with the Jets in Minnesota. We'll have a 60 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: male not a mail bang. Actually, Stucky will join us 61 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: as he does every Thursday. It's Fugazi Friday. So I 62 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: got a Fugazi that actually might be a reverse for 63 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: Gazi my Starbucks some I've noticed. I don't know if 64 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: it's the new CEO, but the changes might be happening. 65 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: And you guys know the drill.

But before we dive into football, 73 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: to some football, you know, I got to tell you 74 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: about my friends, my partners in the official ticketing app 75 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: of this podcast, Game Time, very very excited to use 76 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 1: them again here next week, going to Dallas for a 77 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: little college football game, little Red River rivalry.

It really was. There wasn't much 93 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: defense being played, but the end of that game was crazy. 94 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: It's hard because you're like, oh, that's what I'm gonna 95 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: go all in on. When it was fourth and fifteen 96 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: after really the Bucks were driving. To end the game, 97 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: Bucky Irving fumbles. Great play by Baits, who is just 98 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: a stut I mean that guy, what a great signing 99 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: two years ago by the Atlanta Falcons. But they get 100 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: the fumble, so they get the ball back down three 101 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: with two forty eight. Then that drives a disaster. Yet 102 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: they still have three timeouts and they decided to go 103 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: forward on fourth fifteen, which at the time that's what 104 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna lead the podcast with, because 105 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: I'm like, listen, this is insane. You're only down a 106 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: field goal, punt the ball, try to play defense and 107 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: you don't need to go the whole field. Then the 108 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: Bucks have a disastrous drive. Obviously there was an uncalled 109 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: face mask, but there was also a holding, so really 110 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: those should have offset. But still there was no guarantee 111 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: they were getting into field goal range, and even if 112 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: they did, it was gonna be a long field goal. 113 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: But then they have to punt the ball back goes 114 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: into the end zone. Cousins with the great drive, they 115 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: don't have any timeouts. That's multiple big time drives in 116 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: big spots this year for him. Obviously the Eagle game 117 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: and he hits Drake London on the play where you're like, God, 118 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: it's pretty risky. You're looking at the clock, you're looking 119 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: at them, try to snap it. They get it off. 120 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: Then they take a delay of game where it's like 121 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: they're waiting for the referee, and even the referee in 122 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 1: the booth with Alan Herbie's like, I don't know what 123 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: they're waiting for and you're thinking, but if he misses 124 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: this field goal, he would have missed a field goal 125 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: where actually he missed two because there was an offsides 126 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: You rarely see that usually when a guy missed the 127 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: field goal, but there's like a penalty and then they 128 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: get another shot, they usually make it. He missed them both. 129 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: He had one blocked, not totally his fault. The dude 130 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: went untouched and one of the easiest field goal blocks 131 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: you'll ever see. And then you're thinking, listen, I don't 132 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: know exactly who the delay of game all is on, 133 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: but you know it's that unit. So when you're the kicker, 134 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,559 Speaker 1: you're the star of the field goal unit. So you're thinking, geez, 135 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna lose with this disastrous field goal unit. He 136 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: bangs it right down the middle, they go to ot, 137 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: they win the coin toss. Once they won the coin toss. 138 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: The Buccaneers defense, I don't know exactly. Obviously, they're missing 139 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: two starting safeties. Their dbs were getting shredded all night 140 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: and cousins bang bang boom, and they score a touchdown 141 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: with a guy Hodge who I think he had first 142 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: catch this season tonight, and a guy that you know 143 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: you think of Drake London, who's having a huge night. 144 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts comes out of you know, witness Protection tonight 145 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: have some moments. Darnell Mooney has really kind of become 146 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: cousins go to guy. He also had a moment early 147 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: in the game or late in the game down the 148 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: stretch I think with like five or six minutes to 149 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: go where he's coming on like a deep comeback, Cousins 150 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: has to get rid of the ball a little early, 151 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: probably because he's about to get taken out. I think 152 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: everyone on their couch is like, you got to catch that. 153 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 1: By the time he turns around, the ball can't be 154 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: that far away from it's coming. He drops it. Herbstreet 155 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: says he would have scored I'd say fifty to fifty. 156 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: Who knows. I know he had a little inside track, 157 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: but that assumes he would know where to cut. But regardless, 158 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:55,479 Speaker 1: that looks like a devastating drop. Just just absolutely bananas. 159 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: And like I said, that was I'm thinking tonight when 160 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: it felt like multiple times in the fourth quarter, the 161 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: Buccaneers are gonna win. You're like they're about to go 162 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: four and one. They just beat you in Atlanta, You're 163 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,319 Speaker 1: gonna fall to two and three, so you're gonna be 164 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: two games behind them. Though I looked at the Buccaneer schedule, 165 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: I think next week they play the Ravens. It's not 166 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: necessarily easy, but you're just like God, this is a 167 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: huge swing game, and then you end up winning it. 168 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: And while you still have to play go to Tampa 169 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: and go to New Orleans, you did take care of 170 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: business against them both at home. I will assume that 171 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: Atlanta's gonna sweep Carolina. So that's just a massive win 172 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: and there is no way around it. What a fucking 173 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: game by Kirk Cousins. That's as good as it gets. 174 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: I don't even care what your name is. Tom Brady 175 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: Peyton manning Aaron Rodgers forty two of fifty eight for 176 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: five hundred yards. Now, obviously that last play, he took 177 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: it the majority of the way, but how many deep 178 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: outs deep comebacks just strikes down the field. And I 179 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: get Tampa's playing awful defense, but he was just consistently 180 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: peppering guys in stride. Both The quarterback play tonight was 181 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: really really good. They both probably especially Baker missed a 182 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 1: couple that he would like to have back, but that 183 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 1: was really really high level quarterback play tonight, and we 184 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: saw as we see every week, when you hit him 185 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: and you can make a move, huge advantage because movement 186 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: is not something Cousins can do. But like Jay Gruden 187 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,479 Speaker 1: said when he came on the podcast whatever three weeks ago, 188 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: there probably aren't many better seven on seven quarterbacks in 189 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: the NFL. So when he has time and he has 190 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 1: a clean pocket, he can eviscerate you. And even the 191 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 1: one pick, it was fourth and fifteen. I all picks 192 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: are not equal, and I listen, what was he supposed 193 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: to do? Take a sack? Right? He had to get 194 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: rid of the ball. Now, it was a relative easy pick, 195 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: but I think that's kind of a crazy call by 196 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,719 Speaker 1: the coaching staff. But regardless you remove that play, that 197 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 1: was what an eligue game by Kirk Cousins. It really was. 198 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: That was that was a masterpiece. And this was a 199 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: guy that I questioned coming into the season, like this 200 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 1: thing could get weird. You draft this quarterback really high. 201 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: He's answered the bell, and he's answered the bell hard early. 202 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: Right the Philly moment when he drives him down the 203 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: field last week, pushing the ball down the field, getting 204 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: the big PI where really Mooney was opened down the 205 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: sideline before he got taken out, and tonight kind of 206 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: was just a masterpiece at home in that crowd. Arthur 207 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: Blank just I think every single week this season, maybe 208 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: every single week til Arthur, you know, no longer graces 209 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: our presence. They're just gonna induct someone to the Hall 210 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: of Fame a couple of weeks ago as him. Tonight 211 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: is Matty Ice, next week it'll be the ball Boy. 212 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 1: Following it'll be who knows. You know, you just never 213 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: know where Arthur Blank's gonna go. But that place was rocking. 214 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: And Kirk Cousins, I mean, let's face it, their defense 215 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 1: in the first half of that game was getting shredded. 216 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: I mean, Baker Mayfield, I'm thinking tonight through that first half. 217 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean, they gave three touchdowns in the first half 218 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: and they only had thirty points going to overtime. So 219 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: defensively they did much better job. Obviously the fumble they 220 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: caused was huge, But I'm thinking to night watching Baker 221 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: Mayfield and Kirk Cousins. But Kirk Cousins, you know, he 222 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: signed a relatively shorter deal, I think one hundred million 223 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: dollars guaranteed He's thirty six years old, coming off the 224 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: Achilles Baker, obviously a little bit of a one year 225 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: wonder resurrecting his career. Tampa wanted to keep him. I 226 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: looked at his contract, three years, one hundred million dollars, 227 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,479 Speaker 1: twenty eight million dollars signing bonus, and fifty million dollars guaranteed. 228 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: So on average, he makes like thirty three million dollars. 229 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: And think about the other two quarterbacks in the state 230 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: of Florida. Trevor Lawrence gets two hundred million dollars and 231 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: TUA got to think like one hundred and seventy million 232 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: dollars guaranteed. Obviously Tua is better than Trevor Lawrence, but 233 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 1: he's ko and who knows his career is completely in flux. 234 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: And Trevor Lawrence objectively is one of the worst three 235 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: or four quarterbacks right now in the NFL. And then 236 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: you get this guy who you got for fifty million 237 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: dollars guaranteed, who has just completely resurrected his career. I 238 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: mean those guys like if I would have told you 239 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago when he was in Carolina, 240 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: because Cousins now has been good for a while, I 241 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 1: mean tonight's like one of his crowning achievements. I mean, 242 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: it's by far the most most yards he's ever thrown for. 243 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: I think they said on the broadcast for sixty was 244 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: the previous number. Like that's that's as good as any 245 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: Like I said, any quarterback can play, but you watch Baker. 246 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,079 Speaker 1: One thing Baker brings the table that Cousins doesn't bring 247 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: to the table is the movement element. Obviously throwing on 248 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 1: the run, and he was really really he was dominant 249 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: in that first half. I mean the touchdown he had 250 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: to Sterling Shepard, his college teammate. That's as good of 251 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: a throw as you'll see in that situation. Because in 252 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: the red zone, the field obviously, I mean, this isn't 253 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: breaking Loosier is a lot wider than it is deep. 254 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: So precision and timing are a must. We sometimes down 255 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: the field routes. You saw it tonight with both quarterbacks. 256 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: You don't have to beat on time perfect. You can 257 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: still have your guy make a play bail you out. 258 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: There's just not much moving room in that red zone situation. 259 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: And that throw was awesome. But what a night. Not 260 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: a great night for the defense, especially Todd Bowles and 261 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: his secondary who just got absolutely shredded. But it's you know, 262 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: it's fun, right because Cousins now kind of is what 263 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 1: been well established I would say these last three or 264 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: four years, is a really just high end player. Now 265 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 1: he's never been considered a top five guy, but he's 266 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: I would say, pretty consistent, falling in the category if 267 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: somewhere like eight to twelve, and a guy if you 268 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: do a good enough job building your team, like you 269 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: can make the playoffs with and there's o a ton 270 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: of value there and people really really like him. And 271 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: to me, the Baker story is really cool. I mean, 272 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: this guy was I was thinking tonight, like if you're 273 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: John Dorsey and you're watching on your couch, like, that's 274 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: the guy that I drafted number one overall. The swag, 275 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: the talent, I don't I don't know if he's actually thinner, 276 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: but he definitely looks like he's moving around better than 277 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: he did in his younger career, you know, his first 278 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: couple of years. Obviously. You know there was a scene 279 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: today or I mean a visual when they were walking 280 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: off the field. I think it was on an incompletion 281 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: on third down when Chris Godwin and Mike Evans. I mean, 282 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: these guys are championship players. I mean Mike Evans is 283 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: going straight to the Hall of Fame, and Chris Godwin 284 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: has to be one of the better, you know, third 285 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: down possession type wide receivers in the league. And they're 286 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: just both walking side by side. It actually might have 287 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: been after he was sacked and might have been the 288 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: play where he was shaken off his knee, but it's 289 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: like they really like this guy and they got something 290 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: going now that secondary and that defense. They got to 291 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: get that figured out. They need to get guys healthy. 292 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: It's not the end of the world as a loss, 293 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: even as a divisional opponent, given it's the road game. 294 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: But I think it's a much bigger win for Atlanta 295 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: than it is a bad loss for Tampa. But it 296 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: definitely hurts because they had the ball in position to 297 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: kind of ice the game, and a fumble kills you 298 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: when they're running backs actually like that. Remember two years 299 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: ago with Tom his last season, and this is where 300 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: I think Baker was alluding to, because I bet Jason 301 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: light and Todd were kind of telling him like it 302 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: was just not negative, but they just had some serious flaws. 303 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: They were I think historically one of the worst rushing 304 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: teams in the history of league. They might technically be 305 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: the worst. And now with White and Irving, it's like 306 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: they got a couple of running backs. You know, obviously 307 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: they both can catch, they run really hard between the tackles. 308 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: They're both quick, so you can give it to them 309 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: on sweeps. Autumn's a very solid tight end. You got 310 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: Evans and Godwin and now Shepherd's pretty solid. Looks like 311 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:02,479 Speaker 1: he's resurrecting his career. Like offensively, they're pretty damn good, 312 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 1: you know. I Mean, i'd say the same thing about Atlanta, 313 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 1: but it's weird late in the game, and I think 314 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: even overtime. Who's in there? Where's Bijon know where to 315 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: be found? Where's Bjon know where to be found? And 316 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: I don't quite understand that. I think we have to 317 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: admit if they would have a do over on the 318 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts draft pick, they would take a do over. 319 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: And it's just he wasn't bad to night by any mean. 320 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: He's actually more productive than he usually is. But I 321 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: think you kind of realize when you watch him play 322 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: he's kind of a bizarre player because he can't his 323 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 1: blocking is a zero out of one hundred. You know, 324 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 1: if like George Kittle or Gronk is like a ninety 325 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: five Kelsey just on effort throughout his career, is probably 326 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,879 Speaker 1: somewhere in the middle. Like this guy's a zero, brings nothing, 327 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: but he's not quite quick enough to just spread outside, 328 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: so you kind of have to motion him around and 329 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: ideally get him on a small dB. But usually these 330 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 1: nickel DB's they're changing direction and their explosions really quick, 331 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: and so he basically has to win on size or 332 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: if they're in zone coverage, just kind of sit there. 333 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,959 Speaker 1: But let's face it, I mean they're actually lucky. This 334 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: Mooney signing looks to be really good because he's come 335 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: right in with Drake London and Ray Ray McLeod is 336 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: pretty good signing too. He's been watching his career with 337 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 1: the Niners and he's he's a good player, so it's 338 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: kind of crazy that they're not. They didn't phase Pits 339 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: out of the game this week, but I think you 340 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 1: kind of see he's just a role player, not the 341 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 1: number four overall player. But luckily because of their talent 342 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: and really because of their quarterback and his ability to 343 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 1: kind of spread the ball around and he clearly really 344 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: likes Mooney as well as London. That's not gonna kill him. 345 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: And god, that was just my heart's pounded. That was. 346 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: We've had some duds on Thursday Night. We've had We've 347 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 1: had some difficult watches, especially down the stretch. And I've 348 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 1: admitted this over the years, the NFC South isn't exactly 349 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: my go to division, but I think it's pretty fun. 350 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: This year, it really is. Atlanta is clearly a lot 351 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 1: more interesting. Adding Cousins, Baker Mayfield is just a fun 352 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: watch in that offense. And obviously New Orleans, who has 353 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: a big game this week against the Chiefs, who you 354 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: guys know that that I picked to win the division, 355 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 1: which is not gonna be easy. Me. We got some 356 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: work to do, especially you know, I don't feel great. 357 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: They're gonna win this week, so we got we gotta 358 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 1: start digging ourselves out of a hole. But man, that 359 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 1: was fun. Okay. I wanted to dive into something that 360 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: obviously gets a lot of headlines. And DeVante Adams requesting 361 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 1: a trade and is gonna get traded and will eventually 362 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: get traded, and obviously he's on the Raiders because he 363 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 1: got traded to them for a first and second round 364 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 1: pick same offseason, along with Tyreek Hill first and a 365 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: bunch of Both of them got a bunch of money, 366 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 1: and I think we all have to acknowledge that trading 367 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 1: a lot for a wide receiver does not get you much. 368 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 1: It really doesn't, you know, when I think of the 369 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: best wide receiver moves obviously drafting them and extending them 370 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: and keeping you on your team, But when you trade 371 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: for someone else's wide receiver. Let's look at the Raiders, 372 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: they have been a joke since DeVante has been on 373 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,640 Speaker 1: the team. Let's look at the Miami Dolphins. We widely 374 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 1: consider Tyreek Hill. The players just voted him the best 375 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: player in the league. He's one of the greatest wide 376 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: receivers of all time, definitely one of the most unique 377 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: players in NFL history. That team hasn't sniffed a big win, 378 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,479 Speaker 1: let alone a division title, let alone a playoff victory 379 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 1: since they've had him on the squad. So I get 380 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: it makes headlines, and I'm all for the position. It 381 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: does matter. Vikings are four to zero justin Jefferson's been great. 382 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: You go around the league like you've got to have 383 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: good wide receivers. I'm not saying they're relevant. The Chiefs 384 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 1: are an outlier situation, but I think we need to 385 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: be careful about Like the Jets now, they'll probably end 386 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: up with DeVante. Aaron Rodgers is running a show. Their 387 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: chips are all in the middle of the table. But 388 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: some of these other teams, even if you can get 389 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: them relatively cheap, it only costs you a third rounder 390 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: because of the financial situation of his contract of salary 391 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: caps base, of all the different variables. Aren't you better 392 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: off taking a deep breath waiting and seeing what defensive 393 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: players become available, because this doesn't guarantee you a damn thing, 394 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 1: and you'd be renting them. I get why the Jets 395 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: have to do it. Their coach, their quarterback. They're just 396 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: all in and if it doesn't work, it's all over 397 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: and every one of them's fired. The coach is fired, 398 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 1: the GM's fired. If Rogers missed the play, who knows, 399 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: maybe he just retires and goes to do ayahuasca in Egypt. 400 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 1: But this notion that like and listen, I get excited 401 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: for it. It's great headlines. I remember when both these 402 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: guys were traded. If you could do it over again. 403 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: You could argue, well, the Dolphins, he's been important, like yeah, 404 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: but for what now that's made them relevant? Like that 405 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 1: They've won some games, but they can't win the division. Honestly, 406 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,479 Speaker 1: it hasn't even been that close. And last year they 407 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: started with like a three lap lead. I mean, the Raiders, 408 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: no one would argue that if they could do it 409 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: over again, they one hundred percent would have turned down 410 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: this trade. It's been a disaster for them because you 411 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: have to overpay these guys now, you just do. When 412 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: you have to pay a wide receiver thirty thirty five 413 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: forty million dollars here soon, you better be very careful. 414 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: And if he's your guy, totally understand it. And I 415 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: get why the Minnesota Vikings pay Justin Jefferson. Hell, I 416 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: didn't even agree with Brandon Ayuk. I'm like, you know, 417 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: I probably just move on. I don't love paying this 418 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 1: guy this much money, but I do understand it. You 419 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: drafted him, he's produced for you. But like when a 420 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: guy's available, when are other people that make a ton 421 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: of money in the NFL ever available? When are top 422 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: pass rushers ever like TJ Watt Khalil Mack getting traded 423 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: is an all time outlier situation, Aaron. These guys never 424 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: get traded ever when are like, you know, great left 425 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 1: tackles on the never happens. Laramie Tunzel got traded to 426 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans. Why because they were trying to tank 427 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: for Burrow and then Floor's at the end of the 428 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: season refused and led him to Tua instead of Joe Burrow. 429 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: But like this, trading for wide receivers gets a lot 430 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 1: of headlines. I think we could argue it's pretty bad 431 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 1: for business. I'm I'm excited for this game. I'm disappointed 432 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: it's at the time because for those of us on 433 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: the West coast nine thirty eastern, six thirty Pacific kickoff, 434 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 1: it's you know, I like turning on my football at 435 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 1: ten am on Sundays, but listen, it could be could 436 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: be digging ditches. I do think this game's pretty interesting 437 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: because I was listening to Belichick, who has like seventeen podcasts, 438 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: and he does like this video podcast with Lombardi and Patricia. 439 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: Patricia speaks to Belichick like you would your father or 440 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: your boss. It's just it's just clear who the alpha 441 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: is and clear who the bait is. And Patricia says nothing. 442 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: It's like, I mean, it says nothing. It's like, Matt, 443 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: you're not in the NFL right now, you're sitting with 444 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: Bill and Lombardi, who are willing to say you talk 445 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 1: like you're at the podium for a team you're you're not. 446 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: You got run out of the league and you'll go 447 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: back when Bill takes you. But you're allowed to give 448 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: your actual opinion on things, not just the cookie cutter, 449 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 1: boring ass version you're in the quote unquote media. Now, buddy, 450 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: give me something. Every time when it's Lombardi, Belichick and 451 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: Patria they go to Patricia, I'm like, oh my god, 452 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: cut off it, like one of the debates. Cut off 453 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: the mic, cut off the mic, because listen, I know 454 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 1: for a fact, like every human being, you have opinions, 455 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: you just refuse to give them. Even Bill, you can 456 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: tell like early on in this he was letting him fly. 457 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 1: I think he knows I'm coming back here relatively soon. 458 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: But he'll still pick a spots, he'll still say some things. 459 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 1: But one thing he mentioned for Minnesota is that Minnesota 460 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: so far through four games, has had the lead in 461 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 1: all but four minutes, all but four minutes. If you 462 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 1: do the math, four games sixty minutes, that's two hundred 463 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: and forty minutes. So they have completely controlled every game 464 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: they've been in. All of their sacks except one have 465 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: come from the lead, so they have completely bout rads 466 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: and own people from the jump. Right. If you're watching 467 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: one of these UFC fights and a dude gets clipped 468 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,120 Speaker 1: thirty seconds in and it just rattles in the rest 469 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: of the fight, he's kind of on the defense. And 470 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: that's what the Ravens have done the last two weeks. 471 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: They've come out of the gates like gangbusters. To me, 472 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,159 Speaker 1: the way for the Jets to have a chance to 473 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: win this game, Like one thing we've learned, when they 474 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 1: get into a little adversity, zero faith. They have no 475 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 1: sweat equity together. I don't even know if they like 476 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 1: each other that much. They will fold like a fucking 477 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: cheap ten. But the one way they can win, especially 478 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: against this team who is humming, is make them fight 479 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: through some adversity. I think the only way the Jets 480 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: can win this game is if they come out the 481 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: gates and get an early lead and gain control of 482 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,239 Speaker 1: the game in the first quarter. If they're up like 483 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: ten to nothing or thirteen to three or something at 484 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: the end of the first quarter, I think they would 485 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: have a chance. But I see zero ability for them 486 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: to get down against the Vikings because the Vikings are 487 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 1: not comfortable playing this way. They are dominating playing this way. 488 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: They get an early lead, a touchdown or two, and 489 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: then they suffocate you, even if you have a comeback 490 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: like the Packers just did, too little, too late, And 491 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: I promise you the Jets would not be able to 492 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,360 Speaker 1: stomach a comeback like the Packers just did. So if 493 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 1: the Jets and Aaron Rodgers are gonna win this game, 494 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: because let's face it, they are on the roller coaster season. 495 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: When they win, everyone will just give them a nice 496 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 1: little slurp job, give them a nice little tink tickle. 497 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: When they lose, it'll feel like everyone's getting fired at 498 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: any moment. And that's just what they've signed up for. 499 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: And this could be an awesome win. It really could 500 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 1: you beat the four to zero Vikings who passed the 501 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 1: eye test, pass the statistcal test, past the coaching test. 502 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 1: You know, the last two quarterbacks ironically in this game 503 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 1: back Player of the Year Geno Smith. Last year, Joe 504 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: Flacco this year, Sam Darnold, I mean three former Jets quarterbacks. 505 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 1: But I don't know. I think the only way the 506 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: Jets can win this game is to get an early lead, 507 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 1: and not just like you know, three nothing or six nothing. 508 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: I'm talking like double, like multiple scores. Can you be 509 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: up ten to nothing at the end of the first 510 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 1: quarter where it's like, Okay, let's see the Vikings, who 511 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: have just not been down literally at all this season. 512 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: Let's see like no one can argue or dispute what 513 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 1: we've witnessed them do. But when you're always playing from 514 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: in front, like it's easy to you know, I could 515 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: walk into any bar in America and pick on the 516 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: no matter who's in the bar, if Trent Williams is 517 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: sitting right next to me, or if I walked into 518 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: the bar with Chuck Lydell on my back shoulder. But 519 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: can feel invincible doesn't feel the same when you just 520 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: walk in by yourself. You might not be picking the 521 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: same fights and not saying some guys might be able 522 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 1: to handle their own, some guys might not be able 523 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: to handle their own. And I want to just learn 524 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: that about the Vikings And maybe this is just a 525 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: year where ninety percent of the games they just jump 526 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: on top and they just take over before we get 527 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: out of here. Obviously it's Fugazi Friday and one Fugazi 528 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: we've talked a lot about. When we first instituted Fugazi Fridays, 529 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: the number one thing was tipping, which is obviously problematic 530 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: in this great country we live in. Well, recently Starbucks 531 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: shit can their CEO that their stock was in the tank. 532 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: Obviously you went there. They were out of whack. I 533 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: mean the company needed a reset, and they hired this 534 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 1: guy from Chipotle who actually had come from Taco Bell. 535 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: Really impressive in his deal. I mean he got like 536 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: a twenty million dollars signing bonus. He gets to work 537 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: from home the headquarters that they they put a bunch 538 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: of people down with him in Newport. If he does 539 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: fly up to the headquarters in Seattle, they got the PJ. 540 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: It's only a couple of days a week. It's a 541 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: great deal. I mean, it's he's good. He's already claimed, 542 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: like you know, every morning I work out, I get 543 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: to the office, he does like a nine to four. 544 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: He's got This guy's a badass. I've gone through the 545 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: Starbucks line twice in the last week and forever. They'd 546 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: hand you if you pay with card, right the card reader, 547 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: and when they hand you the card reader, obviously it's 548 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 1: like thirty fifty, one hundred percent tip. The last two 549 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: times she's taken my card, handed me my two ventie 550 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: ice coffees and just pay ten bucks or twelve bucks 551 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: or whatever they came out to be. Tip option wasn't there. 552 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: I'm not saying Starbucks has gotten rid of the fugazi 553 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: of tipping on fifteen dollars coffees, because I can't speak 554 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: for every Starbucks in America, but I know the one 555 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: I go to here in North Scottsdale. I wonder if 556 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: there has been a company mandate to throw this out, 557 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: to end this long running, long standing fugazi in America. 558 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: And the other one I've seen that I noticed last 559 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: night I was watching the Padre who they planted the 560 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: Braves Padre swept them to nothing the series, the little 561 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: mini series, right, so now they're going on to the 562 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: next round. And that place in downtown San Diego was 563 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: just awesome, and it made me think the Chargers should 564 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: still be in San Diego. It's just one of the 565 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: great American cities. I knew so many San diego Ins 566 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: who were just great Charger fans. And you see the 567 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: vibe and the buzz when the Padres are playing like 568 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: they're just so irrelevant in LA and I get it. 569 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: Maybe it meant a little more money to Dean's pocket. 570 00:31:55,080 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 1: They built this great practice facility in El Segundo. Nobody. 571 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh is one of the most legendary football coaches 572 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: of my lifetime and just football personality, so they got 573 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: a lot going for him. They got a lot going 574 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: for him. They will never matter in Los Angeles. They 575 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: just will not. It's just never gonna happen. And they 576 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: had a place that was pretty special. And I get 577 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: it there were issues with the government. I'm not pretending 578 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: like it was some perfect situation that they just flipped 579 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: up the middle finger, but them being LA just it's 580 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: never gonna truly work. I mean, how the Rams when 581 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 1: they play certain teams are getting out drawn in their 582 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: home stadium seventy to thirty so and they were in 583 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: Los Angeles for a long period of time. Did it? 584 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: Just like San Diego, Man, that just that sucks, That 585 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,959 Speaker 1: really sucks. I wish the Chargers were still down there 586 00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: because it just it just fit. It really did. Okay, 587 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 1: back at it again with my main man, Stucky from 588 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: the Action Network. I was just watching him on YouTube 589 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: with a little Sunday six pack, seeing some of his 590 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 1: favorite bets. This week, you actually agree on one. All 591 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: Lines Today presented by DraftKings. It is week five in 592 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 1: the National Football League. It's week six technically in college football. 593 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: So we're off and running. Can you know? Sometimes when 594 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: I say that out loud, I start to get like 595 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: the Sunday Scaries. I'm like, we're moving too fast, We're 596 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: getting too close to the end. I mean, it just 597 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 1: flies by, Stucky. Let's let's give a hat tip to 598 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: you the Baltimore Ravens, who you absolutely loved him in 599 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: that spot and they brought I mean, the game was 600 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: over relatively fair, definitely after the trick play failed for 601 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: Joe Brady. And let's give a hat tip to myself, 602 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: bore my guy, Klin de boor that three out of 603 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 1: the last four games against Dan Lanning, Steve Sarkisi and 604 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: now Kirby Smart. I know the game was close, but 605 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 1: give me a fucking break. They warked them. How about that? 606 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: How about them apples. 607 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, Raven's that that trick play. I could tell 608 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 3: you there's been over the past five seasons as a 609 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 3: Ravens fan, there's been a lot of blown leads, blown 610 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 3: double digit leads. 611 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: And momentum shifting too. 612 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 3: I could you could feel it in the stadium and 613 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 3: there just that play felt like it was just okay, 614 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 3: you could exhale. So, yeah, that was a classic hardball spot. 615 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 3: There's like one a season and he usually comes through. 616 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 3: So that was nice. But yeah, good calling to Boor. 617 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 3: I thought that, Look, the Alabama secondary still has issues. 618 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 3: I mean, Beck ended up throwing for like five hundred yards. 619 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 3: But and look, I got the credit Georgia to at 620 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 3: least I mean, I haven't teams can go down twenty 621 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 3: to nothing with four turnovers of safety, and granted they did, 622 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 3: They're good to go five for five and four downs 623 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 3: and then still somehow take the lead. But I think 624 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 3: I thought the difference was you were right, and it 625 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 3: was I was shocked that Georgia came out with with 626 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 3: like a deer in the headlights. Look, this is a 627 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 3: team that's played big games, but Carson Beck looked like 628 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 3: he was seeing ghosts early. Did they not expect Miller 629 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 3: to use his legs on the edge. They had two 630 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:33,320 Speaker 3: weeks to prepare for this, and I thought the difference 631 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 3: in the game was ultimately that Alabama was able to 632 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:39,959 Speaker 3: build that big lead. Why because they had the better 633 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 3: game plan. And I think I also thought that they 634 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 3: came out, you know, more focused, more well prepared, and 635 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 3: obviously it helps here. 636 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: We have evidence now, stuck, We have evidence now stuck 637 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 1: you Right, the PAC twelve Championship game, which I would say, 638 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: Lean's Oregon in Vegas in terms of home crowd, he 639 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: came out guns blaze and controlled the game. Sark, same 640 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 1: thing came out right away. I think they might have 641 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: like the score was like seven to seven or four, 642 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: but you could tell like Dubor was in control of 643 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: that game. Same thing obviously Michigan. I think we all 644 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: agree the teams it wasn't a fair fight. I mean, 645 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 1: Michigan was just clearly better than them. So no, you'd 646 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 1: have to have the greatest game plan in the history 647 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: of the world even to keep the thing close. But 648 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: if you remove that game three or four games now 649 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: or the other three games where they had I would 650 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: say close to equal teams, right, you would say Alabama 651 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: and Georgia equal Sark Washington and Washington Oregon do Boar's 652 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: advantage Like I'm a fan, but it's mind blowing how 653 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: fucking good the guy is. 654 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, especially against all of who's considered top tier coaches 655 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:53,280 Speaker 3: in college football, He's got the best of them almost, 656 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 3: you know, I mean, Harball is no longer there, so 657 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 3: I mean every time so far and all of their matchups. 658 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: So yeah, other ce's coaching. Gina throwing up six hundred. 659 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 3: Yards now yep, Yeah, Gino looked spectacular, but that was Yeah, 660 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 3: I thought that was the difference in the game. You know, Georgia, 661 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 3: the turnovers bit them coming back. You know, they did 662 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 3: make Kirby made some good adjustments, as you would imagine, 663 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,280 Speaker 3: you know, they started taking away the edge for Miller 664 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 3: to run and that kind of cleared his mind. But 665 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 3: you're you're just not going to beat Alabama if you 666 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 3: come out like that. And the difference was coaching, I think, 667 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 3: and the game plan was just better. So yeah, a 668 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 3: good call there. The Bills. The funny thing about uh 669 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 3: the Bills game is going into last week, everyone and 670 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 3: their mother said the Bills are the best team in 671 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 3: the NFL. Josh Allen's winning the MVP Bills are unstoppable. 672 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,919 Speaker 3: And that's what happens when you play, you know, three 673 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 3: clown cars. They played the Jags who were still winning 674 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:04,360 Speaker 3: us the Dolphins, who were they still they're They're the 675 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 3: first team since the winless Browns to not pull a 676 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 3: lead through four games. Yes they have a win, but 677 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 3: they won on the final play and h who else 678 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 3: they played the the Cardinals? So and then what happens 679 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:25,240 Speaker 3: one game in the classic Carbo spot before last weekend. 680 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 3: The Ravens have all kinds of issues right in the 681 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 3: past events they can't all know too the lead the 682 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,359 Speaker 3: special teams. Uh now, the Ravens are the best team 683 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 3: in the NFL. It's all I hear. It's one game. 684 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 3: So the overreactions are crazy if you're and a lot 685 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 3: of times if you just simply it's uncomfortable a lot. 686 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 3: But if you just because who wanted to fade Buffalo 687 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 3: last week is as an underdog. But if you just 688 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 3: kind of very simple, high level, if you just kind 689 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 3: of fade those overreactions, you just buy low and sell high. 690 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 3: That's just your general principle when betting the NFL. HM 691 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 3: you're doing better than mom. I mean, like this week, 692 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 3: where where is it scary? H Washington commanders, unstoppable offense, 693 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,720 Speaker 3: cannot be stopped by the way we've heard. 694 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: This, everyone's gonna bet on that? And who wants to 695 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: bet on Deshaun Watson and Cleveland. 696 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, but now the line is, you know they're now 697 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,439 Speaker 3: they're ley three and a half point favorites at home. 698 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,839 Speaker 3: That's a big difference for one of the worst defenses 699 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 3: in the NFL. Is a team that you know, three 700 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 3: weeks ago was a one point favorite at home against 701 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 3: the Giants. So and the Giants probably win that game 702 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 3: if they had a kicker on the roster. So and look, I. 703 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,239 Speaker 1: Mean once the preseason look ahead line at this game 704 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,279 Speaker 1: probably Washington plus two or three. 705 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, probably posted and a half. Now we dad learned 706 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,360 Speaker 3: that Daniels is a lot. I mean, I look, I 707 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,759 Speaker 3: thought he was probably gonna be like Justin Fields up 708 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 3: off and maybe he's still Fields is playing well, but 709 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 3: maybe he will not end up being what he looks like. 710 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 3: But you can't discount what he's done. So you have 711 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 3: to upgrade Washington significantly. But this is a big jump, 712 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,359 Speaker 3: and you have to remember that Daniels he's been in 713 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 3: very fortunate situations the past three weeks. I mean, they 714 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,840 Speaker 3: played the Giants, one of the worst defenses in the NFL, 715 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 3: especially their secondary. They played the Bengals, whose defense is 716 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 3: a mess right now if their entire defensive line has 717 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 3: been out, so they were able to just run it, 718 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 3: run it, run it, and then easy passes. And then 719 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 3: you play the Cardinals. I mean the Cardinals, you could 720 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 3: argue they have the worst defense in the NFL. So 721 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 3: the Browns defense is an upper echelon unit and they're 722 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 3: more aggressive, like they're gonna play a ton of Cover one. 723 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 3: They're gonna be So the defenses that they played were 724 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,760 Speaker 3: more passive, and you're able to run that horizontal stuff. 725 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 3: We have heard this with Cliff Kingsbury before. The offense 726 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 3: is unstoppable. Kyler's unstoppable. This is a Arizona used to 727 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 3: always get out of these great but it doesn't. 728 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,760 Speaker 1: But it doesn't slow down till November, true December. 729 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 3: That's sure call of duty comes out I think October 730 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:57,840 Speaker 3: twenty fifth for Kyler. So, uh so, yeah, you just 731 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,399 Speaker 3: have to hold your horses. Look, I mean, Daniels, he looks, 732 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 3: he looks the thing I like about Daniel so far, 733 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 3: and obviously his stats speak for themselves, and ran you 734 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 3: have to take into a cathal level competition, but he 735 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 3: just does look extremely poised and comfortable in the pocket, 736 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 3: which is really what you want to see from a 737 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 3: rookie quarterback, especially this early in the season. So I 738 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 3: have to give them credit. But that, like, that's probably 739 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 3: one I look, Washington could blow out Cleveland. Cleveland is 740 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 3: not a good football team right now. They've all kinds 741 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 3: of injuries on the offensive line. Although their center did 742 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 3: practice today, which is big because their backup center was 743 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 3: really bad last week and even though he got job 744 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 3: in a holding call that probably cost him the game 745 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 3: against the Raiders. But the other ones, like the Vikings, 746 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 3: is this is probably the top of the market on 747 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 3: the Vikings. And you just saw the Jets. They can't 748 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 3: move the ball against the Bronx. They lose their home 749 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:48,919 Speaker 3: to the Broncos with sixty yards passing, the fewest yards 750 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 3: passing in fifteen years for a winning team. Who wants 751 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 3: to bet the Jets right now? How is Aaron Rodgers 752 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 3: gonna have out flits? But now you're talking about the Vikings, 753 00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 3: a team that was projected to win SIXI ish games 754 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 3: a three point favorite over the Jets on a neutral field, 755 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 3: probably getting a little too rich. Just saw the Ravens. 756 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 3: Now everyone loves Drayton Ravens out getting out to a 757 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 3: field goal favorite on the road in sinci. I know, 758 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:13,799 Speaker 3: since he has injuries on the defensive line, we'll see 759 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 3: if they get healthier. They could this week, so it's 760 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 3: gonna be tough to stop that Ravens rushing attack. But 761 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,240 Speaker 3: now we're saying the Ravens are a field goal plus 762 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 3: home field advantage better than the Bengals. Not sure about that. 763 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 3: So those are some of the I think weekly overreactions 764 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 3: in the market that I'll be looking to bet against. 765 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: Okay, let's start there, because one thing you've taught me 766 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 1: and now I look for this is as the season 767 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 1: goes on, you know, home dogs indivisional games, and that 768 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 1: game to me jumped out to me. Obviously, Cincinnati, their 769 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,719 Speaker 1: offense has played much better the last couple weeks. Defensively, 770 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: they've been missing a lot of players, and like you said, 771 00:42:56,400 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 1: I mean, really you can't argue the two first half 772 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: for the Ravens the last two weeks are as good 773 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: as any team's played. So far this year, like is 774 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 1: dominant completion them and I mean Minnesota's also had some 775 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 1: incredible first afts, like that's that's a super high level. 776 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: Now divisional games, though, this team's very comfortable with the opponent. 777 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like we have new coaching staffs. 778 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 1: Zach Taylor's been there for this, you know, era of 779 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: the Ravens personnel. So they're very, very comfortable. Everyone is 780 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 1: going all in on Baltimore, which I don't disagree with 781 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: the way they've played, but these divisional games, we know, 782 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 1: they get weird. Joe Burrow is looking more healthy. The 783 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:40,439 Speaker 1: other thing that's jumping out is, you know, those first 784 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, Jamar Chase was kind of m I A. 785 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 1: He's starting to make some big plays. Obviously had two 786 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 1: touchdowns on the Monday Night. He had that sweet ass 787 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,920 Speaker 1: touchdown last week where he like spun around guys, break tackles, 788 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 1: run around. It's like, okay, you're getting that like that. 789 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: That's what makes them pretty potent because to me, Higgins 790 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,399 Speaker 1: has always felt kind of like a stiff, tall guy, 791 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 1: but he is productive. But it's like I'm I defend 792 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 1: Mike Brown, Like, yeah, I'm not giving that guy hundred million, 793 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: like I should be able to find it. But what 794 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase brings to the table, like holy shit, you know, 795 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: can you imagine if that's always the thing like with 796 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 1: the Ravens, if they ever got a guy like that, like, 797 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 1: holy moly, they would really be potent. But I'm hammering 798 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 1: the Bengals plus two and a half now. The defense 799 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: situation makes me nervous. But you know, this kind of 800 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,400 Speaker 1: feels like one of those where the Ravens kind of 801 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 1: got their mojo back, feeling themselves a little bit. Divisional 802 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,960 Speaker 1: game always big, but this feels like a super Bowl 803 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 1: for Cincinnati, like they're gonna get back in the season. 804 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 1: It kind of I mean, it must win. You can't. 805 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 1: You can't be one in four, especially if Baltimore beats 806 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,800 Speaker 1: you and assuming Pittsburgh wins at night, Like you're fucked, 807 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 1: aren't you. 808 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a massive game for the division. If the 809 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 3: Ravens win, they're probably gonna win the division. If the 810 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,239 Speaker 3: Bengals win, this race is gonna be tight with the 811 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:58,279 Speaker 3: Steelers in the mix as well. I mean I think this. 812 00:44:58,480 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 1: I guess the Ravens are two and two. 813 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I mean, you go Ravens, go to three 814 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 3: and two, and then you know, you drop to one 815 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 3: and four and you lost your home game to Baltimore 816 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 3: and you lost. You had a last play schedule. The 817 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 3: Bengals had a last play schedule. That was one of 818 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:18,799 Speaker 3: their edges coming into the season. They already lost their 819 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,439 Speaker 3: AFC East advantage, which was big because the Ravens beat 820 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 3: the Bills and the Bengals lost at home to the 821 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 3: Patriots to the page. So that's it. It's bad. That's 822 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 3: supposed to be you know, a potential full game, you know, 823 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:36,360 Speaker 3: maybe a full game that you would get on the Ravens. 824 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 3: So this is a huge game at home. I agree. 825 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:41,959 Speaker 3: You look like there's the Bengals defensive line. It's definitely scary. 826 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 3: I mean even the Panthers could run on them last week. 827 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 3: The Panthers can't run on anybody because they just don't 828 00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:47,920 Speaker 3: have any guys. So we'll see if they can get 829 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,360 Speaker 3: Rankins and hillback. It looks like Hendrickson is gonna play. 830 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 3: Jackson and Murphy who have been there. They were supposed 831 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 3: to be contributors. They just had their practice windows open up. 832 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 3: They were full participants. Will see if they play on 833 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 3: the defensive line, so they should. They could have some 834 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 3: reinforcements coming along the defensive line, which would be so 835 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 3: important because it's really hard to see, you know, if 836 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 3: they trot out the same defensive line that they have 837 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 3: the past two weeks. I mean, the Washington could just 838 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 3: run out will like it was just four to five 839 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 3: yards of pop. Carolina did the same thing as a 840 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 3: team that hasn't ran the ball well in two years. 841 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 3: So we'll say if they can get some reinforcements back 842 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,839 Speaker 3: on the defensive line, I would imagine they get one 843 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,799 Speaker 3: or one back, which would really help. But I think 844 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:31,800 Speaker 3: this is more about the Bengals offense that they can 845 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 3: they can keep up here. The way to beat this 846 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 3: Ravens defense, the run defense is really good. You have 847 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 3: to attack them on the outside with good receivers like 848 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 3: the Bills just don't have that. You know, Humphrey and 849 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,960 Speaker 3: Stevens can lock down and lock down the Bills receivers. 850 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:52,799 Speaker 3: Who aren't you going to really overwhelm you? And I 851 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 3: think that the Bengals are one of those teams that 852 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 3: can do that. And Burrow's playing really well. We always 853 00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 3: see him get off to these slow starts of the 854 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 3: first Cup weeks. He's a lot of times he's dealing 855 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 3: with injury or rust from the preseason, and then he 856 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 3: starts to get going and now he's cooking and he's 857 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 3: got all his pieces back. And I mean this this 858 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 3: kid Eric all this receiver, he looks really good. This 859 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 3: tight end he looks really good as well. So I 860 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 3: think they can keep up and could the raven Could 861 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:20,359 Speaker 3: the Ravens win? Yeah, obviously it's it's a but I 862 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 3: think this is a good time to sell them at 863 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 3: the peak of their market, especially if you can get 864 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,720 Speaker 3: a field goal, Like it's like flirting going there. But this, this, 865 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 3: this sets up there's that I see value in the Bengals, 866 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 3: and this sets up to be like last team with 867 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:36,839 Speaker 3: the ball wins and especially if the Bengals can get 868 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 3: some guys back to the defensive line, that will really help. 869 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,839 Speaker 3: But yeah, home divisional dog, a lot of familiarity here, 870 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:50,000 Speaker 3: Ravens off that huge win against Buffalo. This is this 871 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 3: is the time too to buy the Bengals. I agree 872 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:53,239 Speaker 3: with you here. 873 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:57,840 Speaker 1: I feel dirty betting on this game, but honestly it 874 00:47:57,920 --> 00:47:59,920 Speaker 1: might be my favorite bet on the board. 875 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 3: Uh. 876 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,680 Speaker 1: New England actually had a couple moments against the Niners 877 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 1: early on where there was a little fight, then they 878 00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:09,719 Speaker 1: just got overwhelmed. The talent discrepancy, I don't really think 879 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 1: it's debatable. The Dolphins version minus Tua is the worst 880 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:17,120 Speaker 1: team in the NFL. Like I've watched basically every Jag snap. 881 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:19,799 Speaker 1: You know, obviously they could They're gonna end up with 882 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 1: like five wins or four wins probably, but they are 883 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:27,320 Speaker 1: dramatically better like this version. If they played the Dolphins 884 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 1: ten times, I'm taking the Jags seven or eight to 885 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:33,319 Speaker 1: Tyler Huntly version. I mean, this team, the stats for 886 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 1: him obviously jump out the fucking screen. Offensively, what is 887 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 1: Tyreek have like eighty seven total yards since Tool was 888 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 1: laying on the ground. It's been a complete disaster they 889 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: kind of have. I mean everyone's making fun of the Titans, 890 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 1: and Titans were kicking their ass, you know. I mean 891 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 1: that was that was a beatdown. So in fairness to McDaniel, 892 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:59,359 Speaker 1: who listen, I think's pretty overrated. Everyone's like obsessed with 893 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 1: his look. I mean, he hasn't won a big game 894 00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:05,920 Speaker 1: in two years. They fucking crumbled down the stretch. Uh, 895 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,360 Speaker 1: But I don't know what you're like, It's Bill Walsh 896 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 1: winning games with Tyler Huntley like I probably not. I 897 00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,840 Speaker 1: do think New England this is a pretty interesting spot 898 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 1: if you are going to bet on him throughout the season. 899 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:21,919 Speaker 1: I think Miami kind of everyone's talking about Jacksonville tapping out, 900 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:25,360 Speaker 1: and maybe they do. I thought they played pretty hard 901 00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,600 Speaker 1: last week. I think Miami's got one, two, three, can 902 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 1: Coon written all over them in October. 903 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, look, it's been it's been a good run on 904 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:38,800 Speaker 3: the show for three years, but this is this is 905 00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 3: probably the end of the road for me. I mean, 906 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,240 Speaker 3: you're you're gonna pull me in on a Thursday afternoon 907 00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 3: to talk about this game. I think this is my 908 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 3: last appearance on the show, No joking. 909 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 1: This is sick. This game. 910 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,960 Speaker 3: This is why we gambled. I have First of all, 911 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,120 Speaker 3: I have no idea who's playing this game. If you 912 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,680 Speaker 3: you want to go, you want like a you're a 913 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 3: fan of CDs for seats, go look at the the 914 00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 3: injury report for both teams. Don't know who's who's playing 915 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 3: on the Patriots offensive line and just they just lost 916 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:06,720 Speaker 3: their star center. Everyone else is hurt. Both their starting 917 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 3: safeties uh Dugger and Peppers. They didn't practice today. They 918 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 3: might be out. One of their starting corners might be out. 919 00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 3: Doesn't even matter against Miami. 920 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 1: Jalen Phillips is out. 921 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 3: For Miami lost Phillips. They have offensive line injuries that 922 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:23,520 Speaker 3: they don't have a quarterback. I mean, your hope is 923 00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:26,920 Speaker 3: that like Huntley, this is better with the timing, but 924 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:29,239 Speaker 3: it's like with the of the offense after a game 925 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 3: and he could like just throw it deep and it 926 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,480 Speaker 3: hits hill one or two times. I mean, what is this? 927 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 3: This total is that let's see, it's total thirty three. 928 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:48,040 Speaker 3: Now it's a thirty six. It might go lower perfect weather. 929 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,239 Speaker 3: This is such a low total for but yeah, it 930 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 3: might go lower. I mean, to get a total of 931 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 3: thirty five or below with perfect weather is extremely rare. 932 00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:03,040 Speaker 3: I have no idea on this game. I guess see 933 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 3: I fear New England looks like they're still trying. Brissette 934 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:10,280 Speaker 3: doesn't make mistakes generally, and he's one of the lowest 935 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,880 Speaker 3: interception rates in NFL history, which makes why it makes 936 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 3: them such a good backup. Also, is this a game 937 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 3: that you try, you try some Drake mayn't. I don't know. 938 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 3: There's a ton of uncertainty. But in this spot, Miami 939 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:26,800 Speaker 3: looks like they have quit. I mean, I don't know 940 00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 3: what's called McDaniel. He's making some bizarre, bizarre decisions. And 941 00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:32,920 Speaker 3: you see all these other I know it's tough. You 942 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:34,879 Speaker 3: lose all you lose to you lose all these guys, 943 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,280 Speaker 3: But look at these other coaches that are well respected 944 00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:41,839 Speaker 3: in the league. They're winning with backup quarterbacks. I mean, 945 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,880 Speaker 3: look at Lafleur. He's two and out with Malik Willis 946 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 3: this year and in. 947 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: Faress to Miami. The title defense is pretty good. Like 948 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 1: if you just took their defense and like gave it 949 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 1: to the Bills, I think we'd go. Uh are they 950 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:56,879 Speaker 1: the favorite to win the Super Bowl? I mean, how 951 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 1: good did the kid from Texas sweat? He's three hundred 952 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,560 Speaker 1: and fifty pounds making tackles. Their dbs are good, Like 953 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,840 Speaker 1: I like the Titans kind of on defense. Obviously offensively 954 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: rolling with what Levis and Mason Rudolph, but the Titans 955 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 1: pretty respectable opponent I've thought through four weeks. 956 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, sadly, I bet them each of the 957 00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 3: first three weeks. I had some horrible losses, but I 958 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:22,479 Speaker 3: didn't bet them against Miami. I should have, but that's 959 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:23,919 Speaker 3: how I knew they were gonna cover because I finally 960 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:25,800 Speaker 3: didn't bet them. But yeah, I like their defen Simmons 961 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 3: Jeffrey Simons one of the best defensive line in the NFL. 962 00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:30,480 Speaker 3: He didn't even play ball er him and Uh Sweat 963 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 3: formidable more than formidable duo in the interiors. So yeah, 964 00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:36,360 Speaker 3: if I was gonna bet this, I didn't. It's like 965 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 3: Miami on a short week with all those injuries. I 966 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:39,920 Speaker 3: just don't know who's gonna play for him. If I 967 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,600 Speaker 3: had to bet it, uh, and I had to watch 968 00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 3: this game, he'd like tied me to a chair and 969 00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 3: I would bet the Patriots. So I do agree with you, 970 00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 3: and yeah, I do think the Jags are still fighting. 971 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 3: Look last week that was another example. Who of the 972 00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:57,200 Speaker 3: talked about it last week that I liked the Jags 973 00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:00,800 Speaker 3: against the Texans who wanted to to bet the Jags, 974 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 3: but for some reason that the Texans haven't looked great 975 00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 3: they got blown out. The Jags also got blown out. 976 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,319 Speaker 3: Everyone saw it, and then the line went up to 977 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:13,000 Speaker 3: seven who wanted to bet the Jags after getting blown 978 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 3: out by the Bills that haven't won a game. But 979 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 3: I mean you mentioned the Jag first, Dolphins the jag 980 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:18,760 Speaker 3: should have beat the Dolphins a week one. They fumbled 981 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:19,479 Speaker 3: going in the end zone. 982 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 1: They were up seventeen to three. 983 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,520 Speaker 3: They fumbled the ETM fumbles and the en zone to 984 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 3: go up seventeen with the game away, then an eight 985 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:28,200 Speaker 3: r touchdown the other way. So but in that by 986 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 3: the way, in that game, the Jags, as SVP SAIDs 987 00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 3: the pitchy wu wu they were throwing the ball back 988 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 3: towards the end zone, almost had a heart attack. Luckily 989 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:40,040 Speaker 3: it was the ETM. They ruled forward progress at the one. 990 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 3: One of those is going to happen again soon. I've 991 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,319 Speaker 3: had a couple in the past. They are ruin your day. 992 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:49,359 Speaker 3: But yeah, Jags are still fighting. That was just another 993 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 3: example of okay, market is just over selling how bad 994 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:58,160 Speaker 3: this Jaguars team is divisional game familiarity, and they were 995 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 3: able to cover pretty comfortably and came back to get 996 00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 3: that win with a touchdown in the final minute. But 997 00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:06,160 Speaker 3: back to your original question, Yeah, it's Patriots or nothing. 998 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,280 Speaker 3: But I have no idea who's even playing in this game. 999 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 1: Before we get into that, I would say the two 1000 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 1: Marquee games, I know you're fired up on one. I 1001 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:20,319 Speaker 1: think we got some agreement here. The Bears, I know 1002 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:23,879 Speaker 1: they're two and two, but they just do not tap 1003 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,479 Speaker 1: past the smell test to me. I mean, especially given 1004 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,359 Speaker 1: all the hype and what everyone thought. They finally won 1005 00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:32,319 Speaker 1: a game. Obviously the run game and sweat, you know, 1006 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,839 Speaker 1: was a big addition in terms of them not being 1007 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 1: able to run the ball through three weeks, but they 1008 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 1: kind of just had their quarterback then condunk. They said 1009 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 1: that hero ball shit because you're way off. I mean 1010 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,719 Speaker 1: when he throws the ball down the field, I heard 1011 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:49,560 Speaker 1: someone say yesterday. His metrics down the field are pretty 1012 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 1: poor so far. And the eye test is there are 1013 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: a couple passes in that game against the Rams where 1014 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 1: DJ Moore streaking down the sideline and it's not even close. 1015 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 1: And let's I'm not bailing on Caleb Williams, but he's 1016 00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:06,280 Speaker 1: clearly just off for the height in what we saw 1017 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:11,120 Speaker 1: in college. But the Panthers, since going to the bullpend 1018 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,760 Speaker 1: and going with d Andy Dalton, what they score thirty 1019 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 1: seven against the Raiders, they scored twenty four. Like their 1020 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 1: offense is just pretty solid now and it's not like 1021 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:25,200 Speaker 1: the Bears are scoring thirty points. So I get four 1022 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:29,279 Speaker 1: points on the road against a Bears team that I'm sorry, 1023 00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:31,160 Speaker 1: looks much more like a six or seven win team 1024 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:33,319 Speaker 1: than a nine or ten win team. I think it's 1025 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:34,120 Speaker 1: not o' hammer. 1026 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 3: No, yeah, I like the fanths here. This is the 1027 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:40,880 Speaker 3: Panthers team that I was trying to tell you. 1028 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:44,359 Speaker 1: Are the Bears good now? I don't. 1029 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 3: I don't think so. I mean their defense is playing well. 1030 00:55:47,440 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 3: They they You were able to run it a bit 1031 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 3: on the Rams last week. Maybe that happens again. But 1032 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:56,240 Speaker 3: even in that game against them, they were pretty fortunate 1033 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 3: that the Rams couldn't score in the red zone. The 1034 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 3: Bears scored off a couple of turnovers. They were out gained, 1035 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 3: outplayed on a down to down basis. It was a 1036 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:08,879 Speaker 3: pretty fortunate win. Who were there two wins against this year? 1037 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 3: The Titans? They had they were it was I won 1038 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 3: in a million win at home? They there. I had 1039 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 3: a punt block for a touchdown, Will Levis throw him 1040 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,600 Speaker 3: a pick six for a touchdown. They came back from 1041 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 3: down seventeen to nothing despite not scoring an offensive touchdown, 1042 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 3: and then they beat the Rams practice squad. I mean, 1043 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:33,240 Speaker 3: who was playing for the Rams in that game? Both 1044 00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 3: pretty lucky wins. 1045 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 1: And that game was close against the run, Yeah. 1046 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,399 Speaker 3: Very close, could have went either way. So, I mean 1047 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:45,440 Speaker 3: Caleb Williams just he's not there yet. He leads the 1048 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 3: NFL by a wide margin in off target throw percentage, 1049 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,399 Speaker 3: So you're right, like just anything downfield is not there. 1050 00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,399 Speaker 3: So credit to them. They made some adjustments. They got 1051 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:55,879 Speaker 3: their run game. 1052 00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 1: What's your take on that. Why do you think that's happening, 1053 00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:01,279 Speaker 1: because it's it's not just miss the guys on their fingertips, 1054 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:04,840 Speaker 1: he's he's fucking airmail and Kevin Garnett, right, Yeah. 1055 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,040 Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean it's part of it's the 1056 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:11,439 Speaker 3: offensive line. So the offensive line has not been good 1057 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:14,760 Speaker 3: and it's definitely going to continue to be a struggle. 1058 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 3: So I don't know if it's he's just. 1059 00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 1: But he played with a bad offensive line last year. 1060 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 3: Ye, that's true. I don't know if he's like just 1061 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:28,080 Speaker 3: struggling to deal with hey play within the structure of 1062 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 3: the offense. I don't think the play calling has been 1063 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 3: great either. That hasn't helped them. But and then like 1064 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 3: at USC, he had just like a longer leash and 1065 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 3: he just felt more comfortable. And so I really don't 1066 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 3: know what the with the issues still it's still early, 1067 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:44,920 Speaker 3: but you just have to go off what you're seeing, 1068 00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 3: and right now it's definitely problematic. So this is an 1069 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,280 Speaker 3: offense that it's not a team or an offense that 1070 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 3: I want to back to win by margin by you know, 1071 00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:57,640 Speaker 3: you're laying four, you got to basically win by six, 1072 00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:00,320 Speaker 3: seven or more. It's not an offense that's there right now. 1073 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 1: Now. 1074 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 3: The Panthers d is horrendous. They had more injuries, lost 1075 00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 3: their linebacker Shack Thomps, they already lost Theirk Brown. But 1076 00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 3: what they're doing, you know, they're they're just taking away 1077 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:12,440 Speaker 3: the explosive play. They're gonna play a ton of Cover three, 1078 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,880 Speaker 3: but they're blitzing a lot because they have no other 1079 00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 3: way of generating pressure, like none. So everyro's blitzing a lot. 1080 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 3: That's something the Bears have not shown any ability to handle. 1081 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 3: I mean, their their offensive line is just in disarray 1082 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:28,160 Speaker 3: when dealing with any blitzes or stunts. So the Panthers 1083 00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:30,680 Speaker 3: could have some success there and then everyroll will give 1084 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:33,240 Speaker 3: some complex Cover three looks on the back end, so 1085 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 3: maybe it forces Caleb into a mistake. But you brought 1086 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 3: up to key point here with the Panthers is that. 1087 00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:40,479 Speaker 3: I mean, their offensive scored sixty points in two games 1088 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:44,440 Speaker 3: of Dalton. They scored sixty points in eight games over 1089 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:48,120 Speaker 3: the last eight games with Bryce Young combined, So this 1090 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 3: is just a much improving. The offensive line also significantly improved. 1091 00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:57,280 Speaker 3: You look at pressure rate on just dropbacks allowed. Panthers 1092 00:58:57,360 --> 00:58:59,280 Speaker 3: number one in the NFL by a wide margin. I 1093 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 3: think they're like fifty teen percent. Next best teams at 1094 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:05,479 Speaker 3: like twenty one percent. So their offensive line is playing 1095 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 3: really well giving Dalton time, and Dalton is more than 1096 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 3: capable of making throws. So I think that the offensive 1097 00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:16,000 Speaker 3: line can handle the Bears defensive front. So yeah, I 1098 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,240 Speaker 3: think that it's Panthers are nothing here against the Bears. 1099 00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,640 Speaker 3: So just their offense right now. Maybe Cable will get 1100 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 3: there and they'll start to figure some more things out, 1101 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 3: But right now, it's not a team that I'm running 1102 00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 3: to bet as a favorite of more than a field goal. 1103 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:34,800 Speaker 1: Okay, obviously the two big games this weekend, you know, 1104 00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 1: the Bills Texans. It's kind of a stay away for me. 1105 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 1: I want to lean Bills, but they're You watch them 1106 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,000 Speaker 1: against the Ravens and you go god their defense at 1107 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:48,920 Speaker 1: any moment, and we know how potent Houston is. But 1108 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 1: then again, you watch Houston against the Jags, You're like, ah, 1109 00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 1: this is not the team that I hammered to be 1110 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 1: the number one overall seed. Nico Collins has been incredible. 1111 00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily have, you know, a strong opinion on that. 1112 01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:05,840 Speaker 1: I do think the night game, you just look at 1113 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,800 Speaker 1: it and you go, Lawrence's out, Mike A. Parsons is out. 1114 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:12,680 Speaker 1: Their defense was already shitty. I mean, that's and did 1115 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 1: I read that Cooks is injured as well? 1116 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:15,760 Speaker 3: It's got an infection. He's out. 1117 01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 1: So you go, why don't I empty my account on 1118 01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:22,880 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers? And then you go, well, I've been 1119 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 1: gambling long enough to know in these spots it almost 1120 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:29,960 Speaker 1: feels too good to be true. But I listen. I 1121 01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 1: don't know how it's hard. If you did, you're basically 1122 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:36,320 Speaker 1: just fading. Everybody bet the Cowboys, but you can't feel 1123 01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:38,520 Speaker 1: confident on it. It's a big I mean, if Pittsburgh 1124 01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:41,120 Speaker 1: wins all of a sudden, you're four and one, you 1125 01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 1: start feeling yourself a little bit. In fields definitely has 1126 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 1: looked better this year in the second half. Last week, 1127 01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:49,880 Speaker 1: I know the Colts defense isn't great, but fuck he was. 1128 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 1: He was making some plays that just feels too easy 1129 01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:56,160 Speaker 1: to me. But I don't know how you take the 1130 01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys in this spot. 1131 01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, will You'd be surprised how public the Cowboys are. 1132 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:01,960 Speaker 3: I mean, I was texting with. 1133 01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,240 Speaker 1: The the Yankees or the Lakers or something. 1134 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:06,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was textingally a couple bookmakers. They're like sixty 1135 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:11,480 Speaker 3: forty Cowboys the Steelers so far. So I think that 1136 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:14,000 Speaker 3: they'll actually end up getting more as far as just 1137 01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 3: ticket percentages. 1138 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 1: And why do you think that is? Just because they're 1139 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:17,880 Speaker 1: just the most public team. 1140 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:19,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, They're a pub up public team. It's like Dak 1141 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 3: and Lamb. People still don't trust fields. Cowboys are just 1142 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:26,560 Speaker 3: the sexier team people like to bet in prime time. 1143 01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:31,880 Speaker 3: So but look, I mean but public sides. I mean 1144 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 3: last year they had a really good year. Some sometimes 1145 01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:38,280 Speaker 3: it win. Look go back to the Chiefs Chiefs Falcons 1146 01:01:38,280 --> 01:01:41,960 Speaker 3: game on Sunday night, Lions against Seahawks. That was a 1147 01:01:41,960 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 3: big one Monday night. I like the Steelers here. I mean, 1148 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:49,800 Speaker 3: you can't underestimate what the losses of Lawrence and especially 1149 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:53,720 Speaker 3: Parsons means to that defense. Now, look at the defense, 1150 01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 3: what is it. It's a bottom of the barrel unit. 1151 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:57,720 Speaker 3: I mean, Parsons does so much for that day. Those 1152 01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:01,600 Speaker 3: are their two best defensive linemen, not only as far 1153 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 3: as pass rushes concerned, but also against the run. Their 1154 01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 3: run dye is non existent. You look at the teams 1155 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:13,320 Speaker 3: that can run the ball that play Dallas this year 1156 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 3: and they, I mean the Saints just destroyed them. The 1157 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 3: Ravens did whatever they wanted. On the ground, they have nothing, 1158 01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:23,400 Speaker 3: and on the back end they don't have. Their secondary 1159 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:25,720 Speaker 3: is a mess yep because you had an injury to 1160 01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 3: their on Glands. You just have Digs who you know, 1161 01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 3: it's kind of a boom er bus corner and not 1162 01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:34,120 Speaker 3: much else. Lewis is decent in the slot, but you 1163 01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,560 Speaker 3: don't really have a second corner that you rely upon. 1164 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:38,880 Speaker 3: But what does Pittsburgh want to do? They want to 1165 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 3: run the ball. We want to run the ball some more, 1166 01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:44,960 Speaker 3: you know, and then take their shots with pickens, you know, 1167 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:46,920 Speaker 3: get their tight end above a little bit. And then 1168 01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:48,720 Speaker 3: Fields is playing really well. It looks like as a 1169 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:50,760 Speaker 3: good command on this of this offense, he's using his 1170 01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:56,120 Speaker 3: legs effectively to extend drives. So yeah, they're playing well, 1171 01:02:56,120 --> 01:02:57,800 Speaker 3: but they want to run, run, run. They want to 1172 01:02:57,840 --> 01:02:59,480 Speaker 3: run up the middle. You know, it is the worst 1173 01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:02,760 Speaker 3: defense in the NFL defending runs up the middle. Well, 1174 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:05,840 Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys, So they should be able to move 1175 01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:07,919 Speaker 3: the ball on the other side of the ball when 1176 01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 3: Dallas has it. By the way, this is a really 1177 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:14,280 Speaker 3: good field goal. You're into kicking, really good kicking matchup. 1178 01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:17,280 Speaker 3: Brandon Aubrey obviously is a weapon, but the Steelers have 1179 01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 3: a weapon at their own. It doesn't get talked about enough. 1180 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,240 Speaker 3: It's the most accurate kicker in NFL history. Now because 1181 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:24,520 Speaker 3: if Tucker's struggles of. 1182 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,640 Speaker 1: Late, well I mentioned on the podcast, like last week, 1183 01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 1: when when did they play oh on Thursday night? In 1184 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:32,919 Speaker 1: Aubrey just I mean, he's banging sixty yard field goals 1185 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:34,480 Speaker 1: and then you look up the story. I'm like, this 1186 01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:37,240 Speaker 1: guy's I'm just overreacted best kicker. And I had a 1187 01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 1: bunch of people like that's bullshit. Check out his numbers. 1188 01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:42,280 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, I get it, he's fucking we're not 1189 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:45,360 Speaker 1: ranking kickers, he's not quarterbacks. But you're right. I mean, 1190 01:03:45,960 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 1: Aubrey's story is pretty incredible. To be a soccer player 1191 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:51,520 Speaker 1: to then go, you know, just start training, go to 1192 01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:53,920 Speaker 1: the minor leagues and then become what he's become. I mean, 1193 01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 1: that's that's a freaking awesome sports story, isn't that. 1194 01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:59,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, unless you've met the Cowboys last week and 1195 01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 3: then he cost you recovery finally miss at the end. 1196 01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:05,320 Speaker 3: But Boswell, that's a very tough stadium to kick him, 1197 01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 3: by the way. So for the fact that he's the 1198 01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 3: most accurate kicker on NFL history, there are why is 1199 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:13,360 Speaker 3: that there's some there's tricky wins, especially on one side 1200 01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:17,520 Speaker 3: of the stadium. There's like these swirling wins. So for 1201 01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:21,640 Speaker 3: the longest time there was For the longest time, Justin 1202 01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:27,200 Speaker 3: Tucker had the stadium record for most made field goals 1203 01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:31,480 Speaker 3: over fifty yards. I think Boswell has since passed him, 1204 01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:34,760 Speaker 3: But it was a road kicker, you know. I mean, look, 1205 01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:37,480 Speaker 3: how many fifty yards are made? Like fifty plus yarders 1206 01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:41,400 Speaker 3: are not easy in that stadium, especially on one side, 1207 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:43,800 Speaker 3: because there's these swirling wins that are just hard to 1208 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:45,720 Speaker 3: judge and they just come and take the ball, and 1209 01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:48,520 Speaker 3: so a lot of teams won't even try them, like 1210 01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:53,160 Speaker 3: at fifty three. If it's like fifty three, fifty four 1211 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:57,040 Speaker 3: to fifty five, especially on the left side, it's they 1212 01:04:57,120 --> 01:05:00,920 Speaker 3: just punt or go for it because it's it's it's 1213 01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:02,640 Speaker 3: very difficult to kick. It's by the hardest staium in 1214 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:06,720 Speaker 3: the NFL to kick it. So yeah, good kicker matchup. 1215 01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:08,240 Speaker 3: But the other side the ball, I mean, look, the 1216 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:13,560 Speaker 3: Dallas offenses is struggling. It's they can't run the ball 1217 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 3: at all, like it's non existence. So the offensive line 1218 01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:19,440 Speaker 3: is worse. She got two really good guards, but the 1219 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 3: tat you got, you know, a couple of rookies who 1220 01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 3: are struggling. Steel has just met one tackle spot and 1221 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:26,880 Speaker 3: you can't run it at all. It is the worst 1222 01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 3: they're up there down there with you know, the Raiders. 1223 01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:33,840 Speaker 3: Uh as far as rush efficiency, they just can't run it. 1224 01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:35,520 Speaker 3: They don't have any baps. This is all talked about 1225 01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 3: all off season. It's not surprising. And their offensive line 1226 01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:41,080 Speaker 3: is taking a step back, so there's no help for Dak. 1227 01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:46,640 Speaker 3: And then it's just the weapons. How much you like 1228 01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:48,600 Speaker 3: how much can how many times can you go to Lamb? 1229 01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:51,320 Speaker 3: And defenses know that, so there's so much attention but 1230 01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 3: on defending CD Lamb and Dak's now in all these 1231 01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 3: known passing situations, right, they're not they're not able to 1232 01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:01,600 Speaker 3: run it effectively, and they're still doing it too often. 1233 01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:04,760 Speaker 3: They're still trying to run it too frequently on early downs, 1234 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 3: which is just not smart. And then you're in these 1235 01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 3: third downs and guess what's gonna happen now? Is t 1236 01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:12,600 Speaker 3: J Watt that pass rush is gonna tee off. They're 1237 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 3: probably gonna cause a turnover to the You know, the 1238 01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:20,560 Speaker 3: Steelers play a lot of looks that Dak has struggled 1239 01:06:20,600 --> 01:06:26,200 Speaker 3: more against historically. So yeah, there's no cooks here. It's 1240 01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:29,480 Speaker 3: it's like how many how much damage can Lamb really 1241 01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:32,000 Speaker 3: do when there's just no help? And I just think 1242 01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 3: the losses of Parsons and Lawrence can't be overstated. And 1243 01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,880 Speaker 3: this is a this is a classic bra Rah Tomlin 1244 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:43,000 Speaker 3: spot off the loss in again that I thought that 1245 01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:46,480 Speaker 3: they were pretty unfortunate to lose against the Colts. They 1246 01:06:46,520 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 3: I think they outplayed them, They had a fumble in 1247 01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:50,720 Speaker 3: the red zone they got they I think that they 1248 01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:52,919 Speaker 3: were the better team down to down in that game, 1249 01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:56,480 Speaker 3: and the Cowboys were maybe a bit fortunate against the Giants. 1250 01:06:57,800 --> 01:06:59,920 Speaker 3: Dable I think should have he should have went for 1251 01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:02,200 Speaker 3: but they had two red zone trips that they kicked 1252 01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:06,280 Speaker 3: two field goals in and they were pretty fortunate to 1253 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:08,160 Speaker 3: win that game. So yeah, I like the Steelers. Here. 1254 01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:10,040 Speaker 3: This is a classic rower off Thomas spot at home, 1255 01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:12,280 Speaker 3: prime timing and what is that translate to the defense 1256 01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:14,720 Speaker 3: coming out just with their hair on fire, probably forced 1257 01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 3: to keep turnover. So yeah, I like I like the 1258 01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 3: Steelers anything under three. I played some cheap money line. 1259 01:07:22,160 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 1: You had to get a little joy out of Flacco 1260 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:26,160 Speaker 1: coming out of the pen and taking down the Steelers, 1261 01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:29,000 Speaker 1: throwing a couple easy touchdowns. He looked, you know, Flacco, 1262 01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:31,919 Speaker 1: who would have thought, I mean, his last couple of years. 1263 01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:34,920 Speaker 1: Pretty cool story, and this guy was clearly toward the 1264 01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:37,200 Speaker 1: end of his career. You know in Baltimore when Lamar 1265 01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:39,840 Speaker 1: kind of Wally Pipson, I guess he's not injured. He 1266 01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:42,800 Speaker 1: just got benched. But then the Jets and just kind 1267 01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:45,120 Speaker 1: of bouncing around. It's just kind of over. And then 1268 01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 1: you come back last year and then again he just 1269 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,000 Speaker 1: looks like the same guy he saw in Cleveland. It's 1270 01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:50,840 Speaker 1: fucking awesome. 1271 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:55,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's amazing. I actually, of. 1272 01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:57,400 Speaker 1: Course Anthony Richardson's hurt too. It's a great spot for him. 1273 01:07:57,400 --> 01:07:58,160 Speaker 1: He's gonna get to play. 1274 01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I would want to bet the Jags this 1275 01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 3: week as like too and a half point favor if 1276 01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:07,240 Speaker 3: it was Richardson starting, If it's Flacco, I don't. I 1277 01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:10,479 Speaker 3: like the Colts I liked, I would like the Colts. 1278 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:13,919 Speaker 3: Of Flacco is playing. Richardson is too he's too ratic, 1279 01:08:13,920 --> 01:08:17,559 Speaker 3: he's too inaccurate right now. And the Jags, their defense 1280 01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:19,600 Speaker 3: isn't great. They're gonna play a ton of man. I 1281 01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:23,120 Speaker 3: think Flacco would be able to exploit that. I'm not Richardson. 1282 01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:25,759 Speaker 3: I don't think Keny just on a down the down basis. 1283 01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 3: He's not accurate enough. And the Colts defense, I mean, 1284 01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:31,800 Speaker 3: they have injuries. Jonathan Taylor's banged up. But if you 1285 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:35,160 Speaker 3: got Flacco out there against that defense, I trust the 1286 01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:39,960 Speaker 3: Colts more. It's one of those situations where Richardson. You 1287 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:41,800 Speaker 3: gotta remember richards had only played a couple of games 1288 01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 3: last year. He's still a rookie, but there was I 1289 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 3: had concerns about his accuracy coming out of college. I 1290 01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:51,479 Speaker 3: still do. He hasn't demonstrated the ability to consistently move 1291 01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:53,400 Speaker 3: an offense. He's going to have a couple highlight throats. 1292 01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:56,720 Speaker 3: He's got a cannon of an arm but there's no consistency, 1293 01:08:56,800 --> 01:09:02,000 Speaker 3: no accuracy. So I think Flacco is gives a higher 1294 01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 3: floor of that offense and he'd be able to move it. 1295 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,760 Speaker 3: So that's something that I'm keeping an eye on. But yeah, 1296 01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:13,160 Speaker 3: the Flaco story is pretty amazing. 1297 01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:16,640 Speaker 1: Guys ageless, Okay, I get you out of here on 1298 01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:20,040 Speaker 1: this any Saturday, A couple of games. As you jumped 1299 01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 1: out to me, Michigan an underdog on the road at Washington. 1300 01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:28,439 Speaker 1: I'm not sure Washington's any good. Missouri I don't necessarily 1301 01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 1: have a take on this because I don't know. I 1302 01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:34,000 Speaker 1: know Missouri is good. But on the road at A 1303 01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:38,280 Speaker 1: and M, they're getting two and a half points. That 1304 01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 1: number kind of jumped out to me. But A and 1305 01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:43,560 Speaker 1: M now has gone they've transitioned to quarterbacks, right that 1306 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:45,960 Speaker 1: the backup can run around a little bit. He's a 1307 01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:48,920 Speaker 1: better player, or you know, I haven't been dialed in 1308 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:50,479 Speaker 1: on A and M as that is the other starter 1309 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 1: Wegman or whatever his. 1310 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:54,599 Speaker 3: Name back might be. That's game time decision. By the way, 1311 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 3: I didn't, I didn't. I forgot the touch on you 1312 01:09:56,080 --> 01:09:56,799 Speaker 3: of Bill's Texans. 1313 01:09:56,800 --> 01:09:56,960 Speaker 1: Bill. 1314 01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:59,679 Speaker 3: I want to see if Nixon plays mix and or Pierce. 1315 01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:02,160 Speaker 3: They both didn't practice, so I saw on Wednesday it did, 1316 01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:05,680 Speaker 3: but not out there today, So I don't know they 1317 01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:07,720 Speaker 3: needed that. What teams are doing against Stroud while the 1318 01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:10,360 Speaker 3: Texans offense is struggling a bit, he's having a bit 1319 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 3: of a sophomore slump. I think they're gonna be fine. 1320 01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:15,519 Speaker 3: But they're my only Super Bowl future this year. I'm 1321 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:17,599 Speaker 3: not too worried. But teams are just they just did 1322 01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:19,720 Speaker 3: what there. They did against the Chiefs and Momest couple 1323 01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:22,400 Speaker 3: years ago, jacked up the cover two. They tripled the 1324 01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:26,160 Speaker 3: rate of cover two from last year. Opposing defenses to 1325 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 3: take away the exposive play. Right, the Texans were the 1326 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,240 Speaker 3: exception the rule last year, all those explosive plays. The 1327 01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:33,320 Speaker 3: Texans got to figure that out. When did they? When 1328 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:35,240 Speaker 3: did the Texans offense look good? The best this year's 1329 01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:37,200 Speaker 3: And what do you want to do when you're against 1330 01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 3: defenses that are playing too high safeties. You want to 1331 01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:40,960 Speaker 3: be able to run the ball, force one of the 1332 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:44,599 Speaker 3: safeties down, then he could take your shots. Well, they 1333 01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:47,320 Speaker 3: look great this year. Mixing was running the ball well, 1334 01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:50,320 Speaker 3: I mean he ran for he ran all over the Colts. 1335 01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:53,840 Speaker 3: Without him, you know, you know Pierce has heard too, 1336 01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:56,439 Speaker 3: but they really need mixing to get that offense going. 1337 01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:59,040 Speaker 3: So that's something that I'm watching if he plays like 1338 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:02,439 Speaker 3: I kind of like Houston in that game College. I 1339 01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 3: like Washington, don't. I think Michigan's bad. This is the 1340 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:08,400 Speaker 3: team they got lucky to beat Minnesota. They got They 1341 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:11,280 Speaker 3: had two ten yard touchdown drives after turnovers in that game, 1342 01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:15,360 Speaker 3: and I mean Minnesota outgained them by like sixty yards. 1343 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:17,879 Speaker 3: They just Minnesota, who got rent all over by Iowa 1344 01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:21,360 Speaker 3: the week before, shut down Michigan's rushing attack. They saw 1345 01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 3: what they were going to do. Michigan was able to 1346 01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:26,760 Speaker 3: kind of surprise USC in a really good spot. They 1347 01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:29,120 Speaker 3: made the quarterback change to Org. USC didn't really know 1348 01:11:29,160 --> 01:11:33,440 Speaker 3: what to expect, and they were able to run on them. Minnesota, 1349 01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:39,800 Speaker 3: who doesn't have a good run defense, was able to 1350 01:11:39,840 --> 01:11:42,439 Speaker 3: shut down Michigan's rush tack. Well, Washington, I think we'll 1351 01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:44,360 Speaker 3: be able to do the same. Steve Belichick knows this 1352 01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:46,760 Speaker 3: is a one dimensional offense. I mean Michigan has won 1353 01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 3: their last two games by scored the twenty seven to 1354 01:11:48,479 --> 01:11:49,880 Speaker 3: twenty four at home. By the way, it's their first 1355 01:11:49,960 --> 01:11:52,799 Speaker 3: road game traveling across the country. There's still some holdovers 1356 01:11:52,840 --> 01:11:55,599 Speaker 3: that Washington team that won some national championship revenge. I'm 1357 01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 3: sure they're gonna be fired up. And Orgy's run for 1358 01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:01,120 Speaker 3: thirty and sixty yards in these two games and they've won. 1359 01:12:02,040 --> 01:12:04,760 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I think it comes to an end here. 1360 01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:09,000 Speaker 3: I think Washington wins that game. I also like Minnesota 1361 01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:13,000 Speaker 3: at home against USC. It's a tricky spot for USC. 1362 01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:17,479 Speaker 3: You know, they they've played two physical what's the line there, 1363 01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:20,800 Speaker 3: They're like catching nine. There's gonna be heavy wins in 1364 01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:23,840 Speaker 3: that game, which favors Minnesota. Minnesota just wants to run it, 1365 01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:28,439 Speaker 3: control the clock, short passing attack and their transfer quarterbacks 1366 01:12:28,439 --> 01:12:30,040 Speaker 3: starting to get more comfortable. You saw that in the 1367 01:12:30,040 --> 01:12:34,160 Speaker 3: second AF against Michigan. So the wins and the conditions 1368 01:12:34,800 --> 01:12:37,040 Speaker 3: they're going to impact USC as the much more explosive 1369 01:12:37,080 --> 01:12:40,160 Speaker 3: passing offense. So I think Minnesota this is your classic 1370 01:12:40,240 --> 01:12:44,160 Speaker 3: like running dog, uh you know, catching over a touchdown. 1371 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:47,719 Speaker 3: Those slowly one of the slowest teams in college football. 1372 01:12:47,720 --> 01:12:51,280 Speaker 3: So the limit the possessions. Uh So yeah, I like 1373 01:12:51,360 --> 01:12:55,599 Speaker 3: Minnesota there. I mean USC off two you know, physical games. 1374 01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:58,479 Speaker 3: This is a team that hasn't won in the Eastern 1375 01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:01,880 Speaker 3: or Central time zone since twenty twelve. I think they're 1376 01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:04,360 Speaker 3: h to nine straight out one and eight against the spread. 1377 01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:07,600 Speaker 3: So and they got Penn stay on deck. So this 1378 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:10,639 Speaker 3: is just a tricky situational spot. Don't be surprised Minnesota 1379 01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:12,760 Speaker 3: gets a couple of calls. Big ten blew that game 1380 01:13:13,320 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 3: last week, came out, didn't apologize. They said that they're 1381 01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:19,000 Speaker 3: making just changes to how they officiate, So don't be 1382 01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:20,640 Speaker 3: surprised if the Gophers get a couple of calls. But 1383 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:26,880 Speaker 3: and then, speaking of low possessions, you want to hold 1384 01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:28,920 Speaker 3: your nose. I bet Bandy plus twenty four. It's like 1385 01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:32,519 Speaker 3: twenty three now, still would bet at small against vet Bama. 1386 01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:37,200 Speaker 3: This bandy team is it's scary. They're like, nowhere could 1387 01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:40,400 Speaker 3: come out and they could just hit a million explosives. 1388 01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:42,519 Speaker 3: But this Bandy team is a team all year that 1389 01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:45,360 Speaker 3: I'm gonna bet as a big underdog and fade anytime 1390 01:13:45,400 --> 01:13:49,040 Speaker 3: as a favorite. They're basically a service academy. They run like, 1391 01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:51,120 Speaker 3: you know, an option esque offense. They want to roll 1392 01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:55,400 Speaker 3: the ball, they want to go so slow, so you 1393 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:57,639 Speaker 3: know they're basically basically treat them as a service academy 1394 01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 3: and anytime. The Services, who's their coach Clark, But they 1395 01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:03,559 Speaker 3: they brought in Jerry Kill and the new Mexico State 1396 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:07,519 Speaker 3: staff and Diego Pavia who, by the way, Diego Pabi 1397 01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:11,240 Speaker 3: should have upset Missouri at Missouri early this year is 1398 01:14:11,240 --> 01:14:14,479 Speaker 3: twenty one point underdogs. They shortened that name. He went 1399 01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:17,360 Speaker 3: into Auburn last year. This staft they shortened that. They 1400 01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:20,759 Speaker 3: destroyed Auburn and then they upset VA Tech at almost 1401 01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:24,400 Speaker 3: two touchdown underdogs earlier this year. And like the Service guy, 1402 01:14:24,479 --> 01:14:26,519 Speaker 3: and they lost his double digit favorites to Georgia State. 1403 01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:29,120 Speaker 3: But they're coming off of by Alabama. It's just human nature. 1404 01:14:29,439 --> 01:14:33,799 Speaker 3: That was a sixty minute emotional roller coaster. All your 1405 01:14:34,160 --> 01:14:36,360 Speaker 3: eggs into that basket. Like now you're going to Vandy. 1406 01:14:36,439 --> 01:14:38,519 Speaker 3: Fandy's coming off of a bye. They'll have some wrinkles. 1407 01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:41,519 Speaker 3: Cluck Lee came out. He said, you know, they want 1408 01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 3: they want the game to be fewer than ten total possessions. 1409 01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:46,599 Speaker 3: That's what he said this week. It's hard to cover 1410 01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:50,000 Speaker 3: twenty four if there's only ten possessions in the game. 1411 01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:53,320 Speaker 3: So yeah, I like vanderd A and m Missouri is 1412 01:14:53,320 --> 01:14:55,160 Speaker 3: the hardest game for me on the board. I mean, 1413 01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,439 Speaker 3: I don't know who's gonna be quarterback brand them. I 1414 01:14:57,439 --> 01:15:00,920 Speaker 3: think Marce I'll read the freshman. He's better fit for 1415 01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:05,200 Speaker 3: Colin Klein's RPO offense. Wegman has not looked good, but 1416 01:15:05,760 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 3: maybe he gives them a better ceiling against the Missouri secondary, 1417 01:15:09,200 --> 01:15:12,519 Speaker 3: which I think is vulnerable. But so I don't know there. 1418 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,599 Speaker 3: Missouri hasn't really played anybody. They should have lost at 1419 01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:21,320 Speaker 3: home to Bandy. But this is their offensive coordinator, Kirby Moore. 1420 01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:23,760 Speaker 3: He usually holds things back. He did this last year 1421 01:15:24,439 --> 01:15:26,200 Speaker 3: and he doesn't really show much because they have a 1422 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:29,200 Speaker 3: really good receivers, good quarterback, and then you know in 1423 01:15:29,200 --> 01:15:30,920 Speaker 3: one of their first big games will kind of unleash 1424 01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:32,839 Speaker 3: the offense. So you go back and look at Missouri's 1425 01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:34,599 Speaker 3: results last year, like they played like Middle Tennessee State. 1426 01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:37,000 Speaker 3: The offense looked awful, they didn't show anything, so that 1427 01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:39,080 Speaker 3: could be they're coming off of the buy here. This 1428 01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:43,280 Speaker 3: is their first road game, top environment. But I'm so yeah, 1429 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:44,800 Speaker 3: I could make a case for either team here. I'm 1430 01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:47,719 Speaker 3: still not sold in the A and M. Yeah, because 1431 01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:49,439 Speaker 3: their secondary still have some question marks. But this is 1432 01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:50,720 Speaker 3: the team that probably should have lost at home the 1433 01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:54,320 Speaker 3: Bowling Green. They got out played by Arkansas in Arlington 1434 01:15:54,400 --> 01:15:56,440 Speaker 3: last week. They just benefited from some turnovers. 1435 01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:02,599 Speaker 1: You know, So Arkansas is not bad. I agree, they 1436 01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:04,080 Speaker 1: have played and they are. 1437 01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:07,320 Speaker 3: I'm I'm playing them catching two touchdowns against Tennessee because 1438 01:16:07,320 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 3: I'm an idiot and I'm fading Tennessee again. I'll probably 1439 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:13,400 Speaker 3: uh lose more money doing that. But yeah, I think 1440 01:16:13,479 --> 01:16:15,479 Speaker 3: Arkansas ficy. They can run the ball. My thing with 1441 01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:18,960 Speaker 3: Tennessee is, look, they're great, but Nico he's not been 1442 01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:23,599 Speaker 3: as sharp as maybe the final scores indicators, and no 1443 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:28,240 Speaker 3: one has like NC State has looked. You look at 1444 01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:30,360 Speaker 3: who Tennessee's played. They played Little Sisters of the Poor, 1445 01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:33,880 Speaker 3: you know, a couple of times, and they played NC State. 1446 01:16:34,680 --> 01:16:36,840 Speaker 3: NC State's a bad football team. We've seen that. 1447 01:16:36,960 --> 01:16:37,200 Speaker 1: Now. 1448 01:16:37,400 --> 01:16:38,960 Speaker 3: This is the team that almost lost at home to 1449 01:16:39,040 --> 01:16:41,720 Speaker 3: LA Tech. They've they had to come back to win 1450 01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 3: against Louisianattack. The Louisiana Tack lost at home to Tulsa. 1451 01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:47,719 Speaker 3: They just lost that FIU FYU the week before lost 1452 01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:50,720 Speaker 3: to Monmouth. Uh the Lotzek scored ten points in that 1453 01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 3: game at FIU. The NC State almost lost to Western Carolina. 1454 01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:58,599 Speaker 3: Western Carolina's one win on the year by one possession 1455 01:16:58,640 --> 01:17:03,439 Speaker 3: over Elon. I mean they got destroyed by Clemson, uh 1456 01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:06,000 Speaker 3: and then destroy attends to NC State last week, he 1457 01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:09,360 Speaker 3: goats Northern Illinois. They won, Yes, Northern oll Nois had 1458 01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:13,599 Speaker 3: four turnovers in that game. Nc stayed at zero and 1459 01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:15,479 Speaker 3: Northern Illinois still had a chance. At the end of 1460 01:17:15,479 --> 01:17:18,120 Speaker 3: that game. NCE stayed at one hundred and seventy total 1461 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:21,960 Speaker 3: yards in that game. Buffalo, the Buffalo offense who upset 1462 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:24,439 Speaker 3: Northern Illinois the week before at Northern had more yards. 1463 01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:26,880 Speaker 3: So NC State is bad. They can't move the ball, 1464 01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:28,799 Speaker 3: they can't run it, they can't complete a four pass. 1465 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:30,880 Speaker 3: So like, I can't even take that much from that 1466 01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:33,960 Speaker 3: Tennessee win. Then Oklahoma is a team that I know. 1467 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:36,439 Speaker 3: They won at Auburn last week. They gave up three 1468 01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:39,479 Speaker 3: hundred yards of the first half to Auburn. They got 1469 01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:41,679 Speaker 3: got So it's okay I had Auburn in that game. 1470 01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 3: It still hurts. But Oklahoma. They against Houston in game's 1471 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:50,640 Speaker 3: thirteen to ten at home in the fourth quarter. You 1472 01:17:50,680 --> 01:17:52,240 Speaker 3: know again, they could have lost a two lane. That 1473 01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:54,680 Speaker 3: game was close. Like to Oklahoma, they have all kinds 1474 01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:57,120 Speaker 3: of wide receiver injuries. They can't run the ball. It's 1475 01:17:57,160 --> 01:17:59,599 Speaker 3: like Arkansas at least can run the ball. Taylor Green. 1476 01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:01,679 Speaker 3: This is the problems that I don't really trust Taylor 1477 01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:05,559 Speaker 3: Green their quarterback. He's too an accurate, but he can run. 1478 01:18:05,960 --> 01:18:08,599 Speaker 3: And we saw Oklahoma start to move the ball a 1479 01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:11,080 Speaker 3: bit when they benched Arnold and they brought in their 1480 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:13,800 Speaker 3: backup freshman who was able to run because they're The 1481 01:18:13,920 --> 01:18:17,120 Speaker 3: Tennessee defensive line is great. So yeah, I think two 1482 01:18:17,200 --> 01:18:20,800 Speaker 3: touchdowns is too much. Maybe Tennessee is that good, but 1483 01:18:20,840 --> 01:18:22,960 Speaker 3: the data points now looking back, they just they don't 1484 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:25,000 Speaker 3: look as good as they might have at the time. 1485 01:18:26,080 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 1: You know what's weird about college football is like in 1486 01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:30,840 Speaker 1: the NFL, even when you play random teams, like you 1487 01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:33,680 Speaker 1: get tested in the regular season, it's hard. You know, 1488 01:18:33,720 --> 01:18:37,000 Speaker 1: look at Old Miss. I mean they're playing the Poor 1489 01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:41,280 Speaker 1: School of the Blind and Kentucky, who goes and plays Georgia, 1490 01:18:41,439 --> 01:18:43,639 Speaker 1: plays a real game, gets up for it, like kind 1491 01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:46,320 Speaker 1: of just just gets used to playing at a high light, 1492 01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 1: comes in on the road and yeah, oh yeah, and 1493 01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:51,479 Speaker 1: then they come in and kind of kick their ass. 1494 01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:53,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I thought Old Miss kind of got worked 1495 01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:55,960 Speaker 1: in that game. And listen, everyone liked Old Miss. But 1496 01:18:56,439 --> 01:18:59,040 Speaker 1: is Kentucky not bad? I mean it's I don't know, 1497 01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:01,320 Speaker 1: they're clearly They're defense is not bad. I mean their 1498 01:19:01,360 --> 01:19:02,320 Speaker 1: defensive line is good. 1499 01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:05,920 Speaker 3: Their defense is elite, Their defensive front is elite. They 1500 01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:08,360 Speaker 3: got NFL guys on the defensive line at linebacker. 1501 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 1: And that's always the argument, right for you know, people 1502 01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:16,040 Speaker 1: get very very sensitive of like the SEC is so overrated. Listen, 1503 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:18,840 Speaker 1: the middle of the SEC. Their records might look like 1504 01:19:18,840 --> 01:19:21,479 Speaker 1: the middle of the Big ten. But when you play them, 1505 01:19:21,640 --> 01:19:25,040 Speaker 1: you're playing three or four NFL people on defense. And 1506 01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:28,040 Speaker 1: when I play some of these Minnesotas or whatever, yeah, 1507 01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:30,120 Speaker 1: they both might end up seven to five. It's a 1508 01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:33,360 Speaker 1: different test physically, isn't that. Yeah, And you watch all 1509 01:19:33,360 --> 01:19:33,800 Speaker 1: these games. 1510 01:19:34,040 --> 01:19:36,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, the crazy thing is that Kentucky was down it's 1511 01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:40,519 Speaker 3: top corner all SEC guy in that game against ole Miss. 1512 01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:43,639 Speaker 1: They that was a fantastic win. I mean they kicked 1513 01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:44,400 Speaker 1: the shit out of Yeah. 1514 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:45,840 Speaker 3: I mean it was physically, yeah, it was. 1515 01:19:46,040 --> 01:19:46,479 Speaker 1: It was huge. 1516 01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:47,519 Speaker 3: I mean they had a great game, but they were 1517 01:19:47,520 --> 01:19:49,680 Speaker 3: getting their defensive line. That's was the big question for 1518 01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:51,600 Speaker 3: me coming here was the ole Miss offensive line. You 1519 01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:53,479 Speaker 3: look at the transfer portal, I do think they're their 1520 01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:56,200 Speaker 3: defense now is legit Like Ole Miss has a good defense. 1521 01:19:56,760 --> 01:19:56,880 Speaker 1: Uh. 1522 01:19:57,240 --> 01:20:00,040 Speaker 3: They got guys who have you know, head agree the 1523 01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 3: results at the SEC level. Uh that they brought in 1524 01:20:04,360 --> 01:20:07,000 Speaker 3: and you know it's they have a better defensive coordinator 1525 01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:10,760 Speaker 3: now it's more a more well schooled, serious defense. They 1526 01:20:10,760 --> 01:20:14,400 Speaker 3: have talent. So that Old Miss defense now is a serious, 1527 01:20:14,800 --> 01:20:18,800 Speaker 3: you know, SEC contender caliber unit. But the question for 1528 01:20:18,880 --> 01:20:21,439 Speaker 3: me is the offensive line. That was the one unit 1529 01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:24,240 Speaker 3: that they didn't really you know, bring in top to 1530 01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:27,160 Speaker 3: your talent. It was guys who you know, like a 1531 01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:32,000 Speaker 3: North Carolina transfer struggled at North Carolina. The talent level 1532 01:20:32,280 --> 01:20:35,240 Speaker 3: just wasn't that And what happened they got Yeah, he 1533 01:20:35,320 --> 01:20:39,160 Speaker 3: played Middle Tennessee, the school of the blind. You were 1534 01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:41,799 Speaker 3: able to just run away the talent. But you played Kentucky. 1535 01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:44,720 Speaker 3: You know Kentucky didn't do in that game. Kentucky was 1536 01:20:44,760 --> 01:20:47,920 Speaker 3: in the back of the entire game. They blitzed nobody 1537 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:51,760 Speaker 3: was they were. They were dropping seven eight every play. Uh, 1538 01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:54,080 Speaker 3: take away the exposed to play. That's what Stoops wants 1539 01:20:54,120 --> 01:20:56,800 Speaker 3: to do. Uh. The defensive line just dominated the Old 1540 01:20:56,800 --> 01:21:00,240 Speaker 3: Miss office line. That's probably gonna be problematic. And you're 1541 01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:03,160 Speaker 3: playing the top tier team. So that's what I think 1542 01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:05,439 Speaker 3: is going to hold them back to tuck. You had 1543 01:21:05,439 --> 01:21:07,559 Speaker 3: a great game plan, it's similar to what they just 1544 01:21:07,560 --> 01:21:10,639 Speaker 3: wanted to shorten the game. Uh, take away the explosive play, 1545 01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:11,960 Speaker 3: and then when they had the ball, it was just 1546 01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:17,720 Speaker 3: bleed the clock. People Miss on the sidelines control the ball. Uh. 1547 01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:20,240 Speaker 3: And then their defensive line was the difference in the game. 1548 01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:23,760 Speaker 3: Their defensive front just whipped All Miss. I'm not sure. 1549 01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:25,880 Speaker 3: I'm curious to see what all Miss does this weekend. 1550 01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:29,400 Speaker 3: Because you're not out of it and they still host 1551 01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:31,839 Speaker 3: Georgia's one loss, you're in the SEC. 1552 01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:34,840 Speaker 1: You could get into nine and three if you get 1553 01:21:34,840 --> 01:21:37,960 Speaker 1: a big win against Georgia or Tennessee or whoever. You 1554 01:21:37,960 --> 01:21:39,800 Speaker 1: know your biggest teams on your schedule. Don't they play 1555 01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:40,599 Speaker 1: Texas too? Yeah? 1556 01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:42,720 Speaker 3: But the yeah, I mean, I would think nine and 1557 01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:47,320 Speaker 3: three is maybe, but ten and two is still realistic, 1558 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:48,879 Speaker 3: and you could still there's. 1559 01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:50,439 Speaker 1: Gonna be a nine and three team in the playoff, 1560 01:21:50,479 --> 01:21:51,000 Speaker 1: don't you think. 1561 01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:53,599 Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's it's hard to say because there's 1562 01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:56,880 Speaker 3: just it's gonna depend on so many other things like 1563 01:21:56,920 --> 01:22:00,400 Speaker 3: what happens, Like for example, I'll just this is an 1564 01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:04,800 Speaker 3: unlikely scenario. But if like, for example, Michigan goes nine 1565 01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:08,240 Speaker 3: and three, like they're not getting in. I agree, I'm 1566 01:22:08,240 --> 01:22:10,960 Speaker 3: talking more. But see I'm talking more the SEC. 1567 01:22:11,240 --> 01:22:12,080 Speaker 1: Like if it's. 1568 01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:18,240 Speaker 3: Missouri, no, because their schedule isn't is so easy. They 1569 01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:21,400 Speaker 3: don't play any of the top teams in the SEC. 1570 01:22:21,760 --> 01:22:26,720 Speaker 3: If it's Georgia, yes, uh, Like Georgia plays you know, 1571 01:22:26,760 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 3: they just played at Bama. Georgia plays at Ole miss 1572 01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:34,000 Speaker 3: and at Texas. So you know, if they go nine 1573 01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:36,640 Speaker 3: to three and lose those three games, they're getting in. 1574 01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:38,200 Speaker 3: But like there's other things that can happen. 1575 01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:40,960 Speaker 1: So, but can the a CEC get two teams in, 1576 01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:44,280 Speaker 1: Like could Clemson follow Miami and get in? Now they 1577 01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:44,840 Speaker 1: look a lot. 1578 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:46,559 Speaker 3: Better they obviously, Yeah, I think Clemson's legit. 1579 01:22:46,560 --> 01:22:48,640 Speaker 1: I guess they would probably play Miami twice. 1580 01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:51,080 Speaker 3: Right, they don't play Miami, which is the interesting part. 1581 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:53,000 Speaker 1: Okay, so they could only lose to them on So 1582 01:22:53,040 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 1: that's if their two losses are Georgia in Miami, that's 1583 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:55,840 Speaker 1: not bad as. 1584 01:22:55,800 --> 01:23:00,160 Speaker 3: I would think they would get in. Yeah, especially if 1585 01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:03,439 Speaker 3: Georgia is in. You know that's a playoff team and 1586 01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:05,799 Speaker 3: you know, say Miami he's a playoff team and Clemson 1587 01:23:05,800 --> 01:23:09,200 Speaker 3: should be favored by a touchdown plus every game the 1588 01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 3: rest of the year. I think Clemson's good again, we'll 1589 01:23:12,240 --> 01:23:16,280 Speaker 3: see if Miami doesn't Mario as well. Yeah, they and 1590 01:23:16,439 --> 01:23:19,360 Speaker 3: cam Ward can be inconsistent. They I mean they they 1591 01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:21,519 Speaker 3: almost lost that game last week, A seventeen point favorites 1592 01:23:21,680 --> 01:23:25,439 Speaker 3: top spot against Cal this week traveling out there, Cal 1593 01:23:25,479 --> 01:23:27,160 Speaker 3: coming off, but by should be healthier. Cal gets some 1594 01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:29,880 Speaker 3: key guys back, but Ole miss they go you know 1595 01:23:29,920 --> 01:23:36,280 Speaker 3: their schedule, they host Georgia and you know, if they 1596 01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:39,559 Speaker 3: lose that game and they run the table, I think 1597 01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:42,519 Speaker 3: they're in. But if they go nine and three, they 1598 01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:45,880 Speaker 3: don't really have any other mark ewins that there are 1599 01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:52,960 Speaker 3: other games are LSU, you know, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Arkansas 1600 01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:57,720 Speaker 3: and Florida and Mississippi State. So I don't think they 1601 01:23:57,720 --> 01:24:00,880 Speaker 3: get in at nine and three there, so they're one 1602 01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:03,120 Speaker 3: team they just don't have to schedule. And then same 1603 01:24:03,160 --> 01:24:08,240 Speaker 3: with Missouri. I mean Missouri that like this is obviously 1604 01:24:08,280 --> 01:24:10,640 Speaker 3: this is a tough game against Texas A and M 1605 01:24:10,960 --> 01:24:17,080 Speaker 3: but you know, then you have UMass, Auburn, Oklahoma, South Carolina, 1606 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:20,920 Speaker 3: Mississippi State, Arkansas, and they do go to Alabama, but 1607 01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:23,040 Speaker 3: you're not getting in with that schedule nine and three. 1608 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:25,600 Speaker 3: But there are other things that could happen. You could have, 1609 01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:29,720 Speaker 3: you know, say was the Big twelve getting one team 1610 01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,280 Speaker 3: maybe though I should should get one team. But say 1611 01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:36,240 Speaker 3: Iowa State runs the table, which I don't think will happen, 1612 01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:39,120 Speaker 3: but we still have to learn about them. But say 1613 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:41,200 Speaker 3: they run the table and then they go to the 1614 01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 3: Big twelve Championship and they lose to say Utah or whoever. 1615 01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 3: Big twelve is wide open, Well, then that team gets 1616 01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:52,320 Speaker 3: an automatic autobid and they'll gnna buy. They'll get the 1617 01:24:52,320 --> 01:24:55,840 Speaker 3: top five seed. But you probably still put Iowa State in. 1618 01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:59,160 Speaker 3: They were at twelve and oho, you know Big twelve 1619 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:02,280 Speaker 3: schedule winner win at Iowa. So like a Big twelve 1620 01:25:02,360 --> 01:25:07,800 Speaker 3: could be a big thief. So yeah, the ACC if 1621 01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:10,840 Speaker 3: they get two in, if the Big twelve steals too, 1622 01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:13,920 Speaker 3: if uh, you know, then you have your group of 1623 01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 3: five team. You know, that's that's five of the twelve spots, 1624 01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:22,559 Speaker 3: and you know the Big ten is probably gonna get 1625 01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:25,800 Speaker 3: three teams in, so then you're down. 1626 01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:28,320 Speaker 1: I think unl V or Boise State is getting you know, 1627 01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:31,439 Speaker 1: if one of those two runs the table. Let's face it, 1628 01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:33,680 Speaker 1: UNLV made the right move telling that kid to kick 1629 01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:36,439 Speaker 1: rocks because they look like a fucking they're good. They 1630 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:39,360 Speaker 1: play Syracuse to listen to this on Friday tonight. That's 1631 01:25:39,400 --> 01:25:42,320 Speaker 1: a pretty interesting game. But it's in Vegas. Boise. That 1632 01:25:42,439 --> 01:25:46,200 Speaker 1: running back, I mean, he looks like telling you to 1633 01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:49,040 Speaker 1: me my cop. He's darren Sprolls at k State. He 1634 01:25:49,240 --> 01:25:50,360 Speaker 1: is just dominant. 1635 01:25:50,880 --> 01:25:53,479 Speaker 3: You know, he's the best running back in the country. 1636 01:25:54,360 --> 01:25:57,599 Speaker 1: Oh, he's good. So one of those two teams, if 1637 01:25:57,600 --> 01:25:59,599 Speaker 1: they run the table, are you in agreement that they 1638 01:25:59,640 --> 01:26:00,680 Speaker 1: are the representative? 1639 01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:04,400 Speaker 3: Yeah? Uh, the like the MAC is out of it 1640 01:26:04,439 --> 01:26:09,200 Speaker 3: now you can cross them off. Like, if say, uh, 1641 01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:12,640 Speaker 3: Northern Illinois ran the table, they would have gotten in 1642 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:14,920 Speaker 3: obviously they and they lost NC State. They should have won, 1643 01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:17,360 Speaker 3: but they also lost it home to Buffalo Bowling Green 1644 01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:21,040 Speaker 3: lost it on the Old Dominion and so every MAC 1645 01:26:21,080 --> 01:26:22,200 Speaker 3: team has lost. They're done. 1646 01:26:22,760 --> 01:26:25,240 Speaker 1: So Northern Illinois lost twice since they beat Notre Dame. 1647 01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:28,720 Speaker 3: Yes, so it's not a good look for Notre Dame. 1648 01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:33,360 Speaker 3: The yeah, I mean conference, I don't think Liberty is 1649 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:35,519 Speaker 3: getting in. Liberty had a game canceled against app State, 1650 01:26:35,640 --> 01:26:37,759 Speaker 3: like and their schedules a joke. And we saw them 1651 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:42,479 Speaker 3: against Oregon get blasted last year, so I don't think 1652 01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:45,960 Speaker 3: they're in the mix. So uh, they just don't have 1653 01:26:45,960 --> 01:26:51,000 Speaker 3: to schedule strength the Sun Belt. Texas State was supposed 1654 01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:52,519 Speaker 3: to be up there too, but they've lost two games. 1655 01:26:52,560 --> 01:26:54,799 Speaker 3: They just lost their own to Sam Houston. James Madison 1656 01:26:55,320 --> 01:26:57,880 Speaker 3: is the one wild card. This is a team they 1657 01:26:57,920 --> 01:27:00,519 Speaker 3: lost everything all of a sudden. They're an offense juggernaut. 1658 01:27:00,520 --> 01:27:02,800 Speaker 3: Of course, seventy on North Carolina, that's a good data point. 1659 01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:04,720 Speaker 3: Kind is not great, but it's a Power five team. 1660 01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:06,920 Speaker 3: You beat them on the road seventy to fifty, they 1661 01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 3: put up sixty I think sixty again last week. This 1662 01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:13,240 Speaker 3: quarterback Barnett is going crazy. If Jamu they have an 1663 01:27:13,280 --> 01:27:17,679 Speaker 3: easy schedule, they run the table. Maybe, But if if 1664 01:27:17,760 --> 01:27:21,280 Speaker 3: either Fresno or Boise runs the table from here on out, 1665 01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:23,200 Speaker 3: they're gonna get in over JMU. But JAMU, I think, 1666 01:27:23,280 --> 01:27:27,320 Speaker 3: is the interesting name to keep an eye on elsewhere. 1667 01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:31,920 Speaker 3: But yeah, Boise and Fresno, I mean Bois and UNLB 1668 01:27:32,560 --> 01:27:37,639 Speaker 3: will play now Fresno after that, Yeah, yeah, they'll play 1669 01:27:37,720 --> 01:27:42,280 Speaker 3: twice most likely because they'll probably play They're gonna play 1670 01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:43,080 Speaker 3: in Vegas. 1671 01:27:43,160 --> 01:27:44,120 Speaker 1: They play in the regular season. 1672 01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:48,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, October twenty fifth, and I mean the rest of 1673 01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:51,200 Speaker 3: Boise schedule is is pretty easy. 1674 01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:53,920 Speaker 1: So that game is you have to beat the other 1675 01:27:53,960 --> 01:27:56,400 Speaker 1: team twice. Whoever wins that game has to win it again. 1676 01:27:56,479 --> 01:27:58,920 Speaker 1: Yeah they split, but yeah, they're gonna be the front runners. 1677 01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:00,760 Speaker 1: They have good data points to do you have to 1678 01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:01,960 Speaker 1: put a power four team in? 1679 01:28:02,200 --> 01:28:04,080 Speaker 3: Do they have to or no, you mean a group 1680 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:07,320 Speaker 3: of five or you excuse yeah, yeah, the. 1681 01:28:07,439 --> 01:28:10,080 Speaker 1: High the non power four or five team. You know, 1682 01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:12,200 Speaker 1: I guess the PAC twelve doesn't exist non power five 1683 01:28:12,479 --> 01:28:14,080 Speaker 1: do they automatically get a bit. 1684 01:28:14,160 --> 01:28:20,720 Speaker 3: The highest rate highest ranked UH conference champion from the 1685 01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:25,880 Speaker 3: group of five level the power four, so I is 1686 01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:29,960 Speaker 3: guaranteed to guaranteed a spot which makes the They're probably 1687 01:28:29,960 --> 01:28:31,719 Speaker 3: gonna be the twelve seed, which makes the five seed, 1688 01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:36,000 Speaker 3: and you get a pretty uh if you don't win 1689 01:28:36,040 --> 01:28:38,280 Speaker 3: your conference, getting that five is pretty big because you're 1690 01:28:38,280 --> 01:28:40,000 Speaker 3: gonna play but. 1691 01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:43,120 Speaker 1: Like a Georgia Georgia or type team, that's a pretty 1692 01:28:43,160 --> 01:28:43,799 Speaker 1: good spot. 1693 01:28:43,840 --> 01:28:44,920 Speaker 3: Instead of the sixth seed. 1694 01:28:45,760 --> 01:28:48,559 Speaker 1: You know, maybe you get the boys he gave them. Hell, 1695 01:28:48,720 --> 01:28:51,080 Speaker 1: I mean that could be a rule. The NFL remax. 1696 01:28:50,840 --> 01:28:56,639 Speaker 3: Look, I think it's it's day CE. Maybe you get 1697 01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:59,360 Speaker 3: h Army and Navy. There's a scenario this is on 1698 01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:00,800 Speaker 3: our site if you to go down the weeds on 1699 01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:03,680 Speaker 3: action dot com. The action never got where Army and 1700 01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:09,000 Speaker 3: Navy are both undefeated and then they play each other. Well, 1701 01:29:09,040 --> 01:29:12,120 Speaker 3: they play in the AC Championship. This is very unlikely, 1702 01:29:12,160 --> 01:29:15,519 Speaker 3: but Army Navy both look good. Then they play again 1703 01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:18,800 Speaker 3: again in the Army Navy game, but the College World 1704 01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:22,240 Speaker 3: Playoff has to make their decision before it's a crazy 1705 01:29:22,240 --> 01:29:25,880 Speaker 3: stund very unlikely. But yeah, at the Mountain West is 1706 01:29:26,479 --> 01:29:30,120 Speaker 3: the clear favorite. I mean maybe if if Memphis or 1707 01:29:30,160 --> 01:29:36,040 Speaker 3: two Lane gets hot, you know, but they've they already 1708 01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:38,799 Speaker 3: have losses and the Mountain West is good data points 1709 01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:42,080 Speaker 3: you and know the big wins already against powerboard teams 1710 01:29:42,680 --> 01:29:46,559 Speaker 3: Boise with genty, which gives them sex appeals, so to speak. 1711 01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:48,439 Speaker 3: But they they went toe to toe with the organ 1712 01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:51,720 Speaker 3: should have won arguably that game in Eugene. So yeah, 1713 01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:56,160 Speaker 3: I think they're their clear favorites and Mountain West brace 1714 01:29:56,160 --> 01:29:57,599 Speaker 3: will be very fun to watch. 1715 01:29:59,280 --> 01:30:02,280 Speaker 1: Okay, Stucky, let's uh, let's keep this thing rolling. Let's 1716 01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:03,760 Speaker 1: have a good weekend, and let's make some money. 1717 01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 3: We'll see you next week. Brother. 1718 01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:12,920 Speaker 1: M the volume mm hmm
