Speaker 2: Yes, it was a fun trip over there.

12
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: I'm sad Baldi not to get to watch, you know,

13
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 1: my team, the Patriots and Drake May this week. That'll

14
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: be an interesting one against the Jaguars. But I'm excited

15
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: to have you aboard.

16
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 4: Thank you, Thank you, Greg. Pat good to be with you,

17
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,639
Speaker 4: guys man. Chance to talk to some football here. I mean,

18
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 4: I think I've got it pretty well digested from week six,

19
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 4: so you know, I think I can kind of look

20
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 4: at some of these games and some of these matchups

21
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,400
Speaker 4: that everybody's turning to right now.

22
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 3: Well everybody, everybody's gonna turn to find out what you

23
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 3: think about the Birds. So let's start right there, otherwise

24
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 3: we'll go smallest the biggest spreads. But we got to

25
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 3: start because we got Baldi on Greg. Yeah, let's go

26
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 3: ahead and start with the Saquan revenge game. Philadelphia three

27
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 3: and a half point favorite on Fox. Chris Myers, Mark

28
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: Sanchez and k pink on the call. Baldi the Saquon

29
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 3: get his revenge against the g Men.

30
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 4: He could, he could? I mean giants, Stephen is playing great.

31
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 4: Guys played really well against Seattle two weeks ago, played

32
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 4: great against an explosive Cincinnati team last week.

33
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 5: Even with al Cavon, thibadau is, He's o.

34
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 4: Jealari played great, Dexl Lawrence playing as good as any

35
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 4: defensive lineman in the league right now. So they're going

36
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 4: to have their challenges. They did not run the ball

37
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 4: well last week against Cleveland. But I'm sure you know

38
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 4: Saquan had this. He's talking in Philadelphia in the locker

39
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 4: room right now after practice about you know what this

40
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 4: is all about for him him and you know, so

41
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 4: there is some of that to it, but he Saque

42
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 4: knows that it's all about going up there to win

43
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 4: the game first. And you know, Philadelphia is a better team,

44
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 4: but you know, the Giants offense. I mean, honestly, guys,

45
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones couldn't played worse than he did last week.

46
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 4: And that's disappointing because he'd played really well against Seattle

47
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 4: without elite neighbors. But he got the ball down the

48
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 4: field to Slayton into Wandale and really made some things happen.

49
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 4: Last week, he couldn't make a right read.

50
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 5: He couldn't. That was a winnable game.

51
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 4: It's, you know, ten to seven in the fourth quarter,

52
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 4: and they just need a drive to win, and they

53
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,639
Speaker 4: couldn't do it. And now they have to do it

54
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 4: with doubt Andrew Thomas, who's their best probably he was

55
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 4: the best offensive player, maybe the best player on their team.

56
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 4: He's he's a really good player. So I don't know

57
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 4: what they're going to do to adjust. But if Daniel

58
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 4: Jones played like you did last week at home against

59
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 4: a poor Cincinnati defense, and now you take away his

60
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 4: blindside protector, I mean, if I was the Eagles, I

61
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 4: would be I don't know who's going to be out there,

62
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 4: but I'd be lining up to go get to the

63
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 4: blindside of Daniel Jones right now.

64
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought that up. All day.

65
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: It sounds like it's gonna be Josh easy to do yeah,

66
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: at left tackle, so they leave Jermaine Illumin or at

67
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 1: right tackle, where he's played well. This has been a

68
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: good Giants offensive line on balance, been one of the

69
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: strengths of this team.

70
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: It's funny you mentioned Saquon.

71
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: He says it's been so long he doesn't care anymore

72
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: about the Giants.

73
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 2: That's in the past and the weeks.

74
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: He also said that the fans, he doesn't think the

75
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: fans will care anymore. I mean, I think they're gonna caren't.

76
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna boo them or not.

77
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: But the Eagles need to get it going again on

78
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: the ground, and you mentioned a Giants defense has played

79
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: pretty well, especially against the run. Now, one thing I

80
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: haven't mentioned on this show is that Jordan Malatta is

81
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: also going to be out for a couple of weeks.

82
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: The left tackle for the Eagles.

83
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: Johnson Now, yeah, and he he had some struggles I

84
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: believe last week in that game where they just were

85
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: a little often. This is a big game, Baldy, It's

86
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: a swing game. I know people think the Giant season

87
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: is just over, but they don't want to think that

88
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: they're zero and two in the division.

89
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: They're two and four.

90
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: They win this game, and it's just a messy, mucky

91
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: NFC East race and they're kind of back in it

92
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: at three and four that they can look at this

93
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: game and think they got a chance. They lose it

94
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: and they're basically out of it. They need to win

95
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: this game. And you mentioned how the defense has been playing, well,

96
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 1: what do you think they do to maybe mess up

97
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: the picture for Jalen Hurts, who I don't know what

98
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: to think about his season right now. Your friend at

99
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: PHL y fran Duffy, I saw him have some numbers

100
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 1: of just about how they do not throw to the

101
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: middle of the field.

102
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts does not.

103
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: He's last in the league in terms of throwing to

104
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: the middle of the field by a good amount over

105
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: the last few years. And it's just it's a constipated offense.

106
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: As Lane Johnson said over the weekend, well.

107
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 4: I mean it's a whole lot better when Davante and

108
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 4: AJ Brown are, you know, in the lineup like they

109
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 4: were last week. I mean I talked to Aj before

110
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 4: the game last Sunday, and you know he had five catches,

111
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 4: all in Brazil and hadn't played since, and a touchdown.

112
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 5: He had more than all of that in one game.

113
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 4: You know, I told him he's a long ways away

114
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 4: from you know, the NL leaders in receptions right now,

115
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 4: you got to catch up, and he started that process

116
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 4: last week. It's the one guy you can talk about

117
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 4: throwing over the middle. And I know Fran has those

118
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 4: numbers and other people do too, but honestly, when AJ's

119
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 4: in the lineup, that's where the ball's going. I mean,

120
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,799
Speaker 4: he is the offense. He's the spark, he's the big play.

121
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 4: He does like he tackled Martin Emerson and tackled his

122
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 4: arm and the ball and everything to make that touchdown

123
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,119
Speaker 4: catch last week. He was excellent at shaking guys after

124
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 4: the catch. I mean, he's a beast and he wants

125
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 4: the ball badly. And the Giants look Deontay Banks, you know,

126
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 4: Dori Jackson. You can look at the Cardell Float, you

127
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 4: can look at the guys they have. AJ is better

128
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 4: than all those guys. And so one thing that that

129
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 4: Jalen feels comfortable with is just throwing jump balls d A. J.

130
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 4: Brown And so you're a scramble drill AJ's coming back

131
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 4: to the ball. So the offense definitely is better and

132
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 4: it has a lot more jumped to it. It's not

133
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 4: as constipated as Lange said with as.

134
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 5: In the lineup right.

135
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: It's funny because they're actually twelfth in DVOA. That's total

136
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,919
Speaker 1: efficiency on offense this year, like the way they talked about,

137
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: and that's with a lot of injuries.

138
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 2: It's really not that bad.

139
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: I was interested that Cordell Flatt you mentioned his name

140
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: traveled with DK metcalf so last week, which was or

141
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, rather so I wonder if

142
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: wonder if he does that with his old teammate AJ Brown,

143
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: because I don't think that would go well.

144
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'd be an interesting decision. The Eagles offense, of course,

145
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 3: you mentioned injuries. They're gonna have to deal with Grant

146
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,679
Speaker 3: Calcaterra playing tight end. Dallas Goddard left the game. Calcl

147
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,359
Speaker 3: Tarra played ninety one percent of the snaps. Interested to

148
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 3: see if the Dimes home road splits continue to stay

149
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 3: because for some reason, Daniel Jones really can't get it

150
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 3: done at MetLife this season zero to two. There has

151
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 3: not thrown a touchdown pass yet we'll leave that game

152
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 3: and go to a Super Bowl rematch. The spread one

153
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 3: and a half points in favor of the home team,

154
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 3: the San Francisco forty nine Ers. Greg Kevin Burkhart, Tom Brady,

155
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 3: congratulations to new Raiders owner Tomson on the call. Are

156
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 3: we going to see this Chiefs offense finally get going

157
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 3: and in the Super Bowl rematch?

158
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 6: Yeah?

159
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 2: I think they'll be fine.

160
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: I don't think this forty nine Ers defense is what

161
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: it was a year ago. I think Mahomes is coming

162
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: off of his best game. It seems like so long

163
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: ago now that Monday night football game really off his

164
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: best two games of the year.

165
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 2: I thought he played very well against the Chargers.

166
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: So those are two pretty difficult matchups and Mahomes handled it.

167
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: I am curious to see Baldy nick Bosa, if he's

168
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: lining up against the Chiefs left tackle, what kind of

169
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: havoc he can have, because he's coming off one of

170
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: the most dominant performances I've ever seen for a guy

171
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: that didn't have a sack in the game on that

172
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: Thursday night football game against Seattle, where he really controlled

173
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,679
Speaker 1: that game. Because to me, this forty nine Ers front

174
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: just isn't as good as it once was. But if

175
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: you could have Nick Bosa just having a special performance

176
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: that could at least carry the day and make it

177
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: difficult on Patrick.

178
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 4: Well, you're right, Greg, I mean your eyes aren't deceiving you.

179
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 4: They're not as dominant. I mean they lost to Von

180
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 4: Hargrave early this season. He was supposed to be there

181
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 4: DeForest Buckner, who they never replaced once he left a

182
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 4: free agency, and then he's out. So Malie Collins, you know,

183
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 4: you know it steps up, and Leonard Floyd's been okay,

184
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 4: but they just you know, they have to blitz more,

185
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 4: honestly to get more pressure. But you know, if Dick can,

186
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 4: you know, he could beat either tackle out there, you know,

187
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 4: whether it's Joan or Janie whoever's playing on the left

188
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 4: side right now, he's capable beating both of them. But

189
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 4: you know, Mahomes knows that too, so you know he's

190
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 4: he's excellent at just escaping that and avoiding those kind

191
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 4: of those kind of plays, negative plays.

192
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 5: That Nick can create.

193
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 4: You know what was encouraging for the forty nine ers

194
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 4: defense last week with the two rookies Mustafa you know,

195
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 4: and Green, they both had interceptions Yeah, they hadn't had

196
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 4: any interceptions in a secondary and so like the two

197
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,839
Speaker 4: rookie stepped up last week, especially after really a flat

198
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 4: game against Arizona, And so you know, I think Diamador

199
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 4: Lenore is as good as slot corner deserves and the football,

200
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 4: Fred Warner, all he wants, honestly is the ball. He

201
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 4: just wants the ball every play, whether he's you know,

202
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 4: intercepting it, punching it out, recovering it, like.

203
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 5: He just wants it. Just wants the ball.

204
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 4: Fred knows that this game like it's it is the

205
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 4: Super Bowl rematch. It's interesting, you know, Brady's doing a

206
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 4: game and Fox is doing it. It's the first time

207
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 4: Fox has ever televised a Super Bowl rematch. Huh wow

208
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 4: since they started, you know, in nineteen ninety four.

209
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: So that's backward. You were, you were one of the

210
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: crew members. I mean, I remember watching some Baldy games.

211
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to you know, aide you hear Baldi,

212
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: but I was back in high school watching some Baldi

213
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: on those Fox broadcasts.

214
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 2: It was fantastic.

215
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wasn't getting the A game, you know, I

216
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 4: wasn't getting that game. Me and Kurt Metafie or Kenny Alvit.

217
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 4: We were getting somewhere lower down. We were in Carolina, probably.

218
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 1: Right I was going to say, I if I was

219
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: watching you, it was probably you know, my Patriots, but

220
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: it like going to I don't know, like the Falcons

221
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: or something, not a Fox game.

222
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 5: Even a Falcons at the Patriots. You know, it was

223
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 5: over in the first quarter or something like that.

224
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 4: But you know, regardless, like this, this is the I

225
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 4: don't think there's like, honestly, the super Bowl is a

226
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 4: super Bowl. The San Francisco wants to beat Kansas City.

227
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 4: They need to, Like they're they're just sort of hovering

228
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 4: right now. They're not playing great. We'll see. Honestly, all

229
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 4: the rookie stepped up, Grendo stepped up last week. But

230
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 4: you know, we're going to talk about the quarterbacks. And

231
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 4: there is some similarity between brock Party and my homes

232
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 4: just from a standpoint of being able to create offense.

233
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 4: Their movement. Brock Purty was excellent last week and extending

234
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 4: plays and so you do see both guys they're probably

235
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 4: if you put them in a forty yard dash, they

236
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 4: probably both run about a forty eight. But on the

237
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 4: football field, the way that they stop, start, change directions,

238
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: you know, head fake, ball fake, all those things. They

239
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 4: both have those kinds of things to extend plays and

240
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 4: it's a big part of both their offenses right now.

241
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, plays extended because you think about Patrick Mahomes and

242
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 3: not necessarily wanting to blitz him. It's just he and

243
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 3: Josh Allen in terms of quarterbacks who see their average

244
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 3: time of throw go way up on third down and

245
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 3: the forty nine Ers defense gonna have to deal with that.

246
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 3: You guys mentioned Malik Mustafa uh just allowing one reception

247
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 3: on seven yards and six targets this season. I'll get start,

248
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,199
Speaker 3: and I think back to the change to go to

249
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 3: Nick Sorenson.

250
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 6: As a defensive coordinator.

251
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 3: Steve Wilkes has the unifbi old task of stopping Patrick

252
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: Mahomes in the Super Bowl, which has.

253
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,439
Speaker 6: Kind of happened one time to keep his job. It doesn't.

254
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 3: And so now here's Nick Sorenson with your chance, Greg

255
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 3: to go out there stop the Chiefs and I guess

256
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 3: save your job. Yeah, I mean that's the standard.

257
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: And Baldy mentioned that the best way to stop it,

258
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 1: which is just Fred Warner. The Chiefs, I read has

259
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: the I right now are throwing more screens than any

260
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: team since twenty eighteen, and that does any Chiefs team,

261
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: any team period. They're they're living off of screens, and

262
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,719
Speaker 1: Fred Warner is just one of the best players in

263
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: the league to stop it.

264
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 4: You know, Andy Reid's been in this business a long time.

265
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 4: He's always been a pass first guy. But because of

266
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 4: all of the injuries, you know, whether it's to you know,

267
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 4: Hollywood Brown or she Rice, all the injuries and defections

268
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 4: from the wide receiving cores. I mean, they're almost a

269
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 4: fifty to fifty run pass team right now. One hundred

270
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 4: and sixty passes, one hundred and fifty runs. Andy Reid's

271
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 4: never been that fifty one to forty nine like this

272
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 4: before in his life. But honestly, they're a very good

273
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 4: power run football team. And Kareem Hunt, who leads the

274
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 4: team in rushing right now, somehow after just two games,

275
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 4: you know like they they might lean on that because

276
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 4: San Francisco doesn't look like I've seen teams, including Arizona

277
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 4: run the ball really well in the second half and

278
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 4: that win against him a couple weeks ago in San Francisco,

279
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 4: So like, if they have to lean on the run,

280
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 4: and that includes home scrambles and design runs like I

281
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 4: think they're I think they're kind of willing to do

282
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 4: that right now.

283
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, in capable.

284
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,199
Speaker 1: They've shown it and they've gotten better offensively throughout the

285
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 1: course of the season. It's kind of an old school

286
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: matchup because the forty nine ers play so much in

287
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: twenty one personnel, So that's two running backs.

288
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 2: On the field.

289
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: Though running back in a full back usually you know

290
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: it's it's use check. But they're in that forty one

291
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: percent of the time. Baldy, before the show, you asked

292
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: me like, what's the audience for NFL Daily. I said,

293
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: you know, you could get as deep as you want to, Baldy,

294
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 1: not that I can get that deep. But they're averaging

295
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: over ten yards per attempt out of twenty one personnel.

296
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 2: That's crazy.

297
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: So they're in these heavy formations, but they're they're gashing

298
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 1: you down the field. You must you must love that

299
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: because that's nineteen nineties football.

300
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 5: Well it is. You know, it's changed a lot.

301
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 4: Obviously, it's evolved, but I mean every offensive lineman wants

302
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 4: to running and play action pass payge pass is the

303
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 4: easiest block there is. When you know when the defensive

304
00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,719
Speaker 4: lineman is anticipating another run. I mean, it slows them

305
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 4: down tremendously and so uh and both teams are more

306
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 4: of the capable of San Francisco has made a great

307
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 4: living if they've got a play action pass off every

308
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 4: run in Kyle Shanahan's offense.

309
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 5: So I would expect.

310
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 4: Both teams to have kind of new wrinkles, uh, within

311
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 4: within the framework of their offense for this particular game,

312
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 4: and kind of knowing just the style of defense and

313
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 4: the percentage that you know, Spags is going to blitz

314
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 4: and nobody's better than Spags at getting free hitters to

315
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 4: the quarterback. And nobody seems to be able to block

316
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 4: Chris Jones in his business right now. So Kansas City, Uh,

317
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 4: you know, all the way up into overtime, when San

318
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 4: Francisco had a chance to score there an opening drive,

319
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 4: you know, had pressure right in brock Perty's face, and

320
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 4: you know they ended up settling for the field goal.

321
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, ultimately saving the Super Bowl for Kansas City. I

322
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: think that you could say that they won that on

323
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 3: that on that player missed assignment by the offensive line

324
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 3: for the forty nine ers. You talked about new wrinkles, Baldy,

325
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 3: We've got a couple of new wrinkles in our next game.

326
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 3: It is the Jets, a one and a half point

327
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 3: favorite at Pittsburgh. The over under thirty eight on Sunday

328
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 3: Night Football with Tarrico and Collins Worth, Melissa Stark on

329
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: the call. Mike Tomlin getting first team reps for Russell

330
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 3: Wilson this week the Jets. Oh, they go in and

331
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 3: get Davonte Adams. First off, Let's start with the quarterback, Baldy,

332
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 3: do you make this change right now at four and two?

333
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 5: I wouldn't.

334
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 4: In fact, I texted somebody in Pittsburgh today. Of course

335
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 4: he didn't get back to me about that. He told

336
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 4: me about other players, but he didn't tell me about

337
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 4: the quarterback. Not that I was fishing.

338
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: I was just it was just kind of a the

339
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: same You're like, Hey, I'm an NFL daily today.

340
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 2: I want the good stuff.

341
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 4: And you know the one thing about Justin, Like, first

342
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 4: of all, you know they're in good position, you know,

343
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 4: four and two whatever, but Justin has taken care of

344
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 4: the football. Now you can say that George Pikett doesn't

345
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 4: have a touchdown catch and you know their run. First

346
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 4: team and but Justin's taking share of the football and

347
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 4: they got to the playoffs last year, guys with their

348
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 4: three quarterbacks throwing a total of thirteen touchdown passes. So

349
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 4: you know, I mean there's a formula there in Pittsburgh now,

350
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 4: and Justin's run for five touchdowns while throwing for five.

351
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 4: It gives you an element that Russell really isn't very

352
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 4: good at anymore.

353
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 5: And so I wouldn't make the change. I would ride

354
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 5: Justin at this point.

355
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you, and we talked about that on

356
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: our show on Wednesday with Colleen Wolf and Jordan Rodrigue.

357
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: It just we'll see, We'll see if he fits in

358
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: this Arthur Smith offense. I'm curious on the other side,

359
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: you know, they add DeVante Adams. I actually believe that

360
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: the Steelers were favored in this game. And I don't

361
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 1: know if it's just people aren't big on Russell Wilson

362
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: or they're big on Devanta Adams, but now the Jets

363
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: are favored in this game. I'm curious if, like Todd Downing,

364
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: who I think had a good first showing as their

365
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: play caller, their offense made sense to me, you know,

366
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: can he make all the different parts work together, you know,

367
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: on the fly, that seems like it's going to be

368
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: difficult to do, especially against this good Steelers front.

369
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 5: I agree.

370
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,719
Speaker 4: I mean, the problem with the Jets really has been

371
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 4: their offensive line. I mean, Aaron's not great, don't get

372
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 4: me wrong, but they haven't played well up front. They've

373
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 4: blocked a little bit better last week, but you know,

374
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 4: brees Hall has had so many negative runs and runs

375
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,680
Speaker 4: that have gone for two yards or less this year.

376
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,439
Speaker 4: And then the protection. I mean, it's just you can

377
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,160
Speaker 4: see it. It's getting worse. These guys on the edges,

378
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 4: Tyron and Morgan, we knew they were old. They had

379
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 4: a lot of trade off the tire, and they were

380
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 4: poor against Buffalo, and now here comes TJ and Cam,

381
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,119
Speaker 4: you know. I mean, the problem is Aaron Rodgers is

382
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,239
Speaker 4: getting hit way too much. He has to get rid

383
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 4: of the ball quickly right now. He can't stay in

384
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 4: there the way maybe he once could and maybe avoid

385
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 4: some pressure. You know, he's taken a lot of hits

386
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 4: in the last three games and the last three losses.

387
00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 4: I don't know if DeVante changed that. They're heavily penalized.

388
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 4: I don't know if Davante changes that. I say all that,

389
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 4: and yet at the same time they needed one play

390
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 4: to beat Denver. They couldn't make the play. Just a

391
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 4: really bad timing between Aaron and all the receivers in

392
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 4: that game. You know, then Garrett Wilson shakes loose at

393
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 4: the end, beats Stefan Gilmour and Aaron overthrows them. It

394
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 4: would have been an easy walk in touchdown for Garrett.

395
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 4: And they lose that game. And last week they're down

396
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 4: the three yard line, they're at the sixteen yard line,

397
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 4: they can't score, and so maybe Davante they you know,

398
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 4: they dial it back from three years ago when you know,

399
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 4: Aaron just gave Davante a lookin next thing, you know,

400
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,120
Speaker 4: the balls in the end zone and it's back shoulder,

401
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 4: it's double move, it's coming back, you know, and it's

402
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 4: it's thrown to the pylon and get Vante's exactly where

403
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 4: he's supposed to be. And you make back shoulder throws

404
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 4: like this against Brandon Stevens, and you know, maybe they

405
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 4: have that rhythm right away. But I don't know how

406
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 4: Todd Downing's supposed to know that. Maybe Aaron's going to

407
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 4: call the plays, but it's a lot to expect when

408
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 4: they haven't played together in three years, that it's just

409
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 4: gonna click right away.

410
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 1: Yeah what just injury note for the listeners, Alex Heismith

411
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: I believe is expected to return for this game, so

412
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: that that's big for them. They still will be without

413
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: Nick Herbig, But yeah, you mentioned Hayward and Watt. That

414
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 1: is the best duo in the league now, so now

415
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: you add another great pass rusher at alex Hi.

416
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's tough to think because the game and the

417
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 3: score gets inflated, right, Aaron throws a hill Mary, It's

418
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 3: what Aaron does.

419
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 6: But I'm thinking back to that play.

420
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 3: A Japanessa's for some reason standing on the fifty yard

421
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 3: line like he's in the flat baldy Like it's just

422
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,360
Speaker 3: a weird because the previous drive ended with the Epanessa's

423
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 3: sack right and and Aaron is getting hit constantly. Greg

424
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 3: Russeaul is also on the forty. I don't know what

425
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 3: the Bills were doing there, but everything was sideline.

426
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 2: They were trying too. It was a bad idea.

427
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 6: It didn't work out.

428
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 3: It was it was a bad plan on that particular play,

429
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 3: but it just it still seems so hard even with downing.

430
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 3: It seemed like a clear attempt to try to get

431
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 3: some more layups in right. We had a flea flicker,

432
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 3: reverse pas attempt just to try to get something where

433
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 3: it's not just Aaron manufacturing things, but if he can

434
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 3: do it right, it's with DeVante. But I'm with you, Baldy.

435
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 3: I saw Aaron get hit way too much to feel

436
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 3: confident against the Steelers team. I think the line movement

437
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 3: just reflects probably more Russell Wilson.

438
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 6: Than Devanta Adams.

439
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 3: I don't know, considering the way Ray Davis was plowing

440
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 3: over Jets, Baldy, I don't know how good I feel

441
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 3: about the Jets defense right now.

442
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 6: Either.

443
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 5: I'm with you.

444
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, Javon Kinlaw is a former first

445
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 4: round pick, and you can say he's talented. San Francisco

446
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 4: saw enough of them. I mean they lifted him right

447
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 4: out of this, out of his chair the other day

448
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 4: and just planted him. I mean, he's not holding the point.

449
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 4: Lecky Foe two look lost in there. They weren't good upfront.

450
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 4: Buffalo pushed him all over the field in that game.

451
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 4: Kind of surprised that the game was as close as

452
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 4: it was, to be honest with you.

453
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 3: All right, We'll go to another game with a couple

454
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 3: of teams who have been in some close games. It's

455
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 3: Seattle and Atlanta, also featuring a couple of defenses have

456
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 3: allowed the other teams to go up and down the field,

457
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 3: leading to those score fests. That's why it's a fifty

458
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 3: one over under Atlanta two and a half point home favorite.

459
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 3: Greg Kenny Albert, Jonathan Wilba and Megan Olivia on the call.

460
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 3: Kirk o Chain's getting another win in Atlanta.

461
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: I don't think so. If I have to pick it,

462
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: maybe that's my Seattle bias. They're on a three game

463
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: losing streak. The Falcons are on a three game winning

464
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: streak if I'm correct. Yeah, they were one and two

465
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 1: and they're making it work. Every week. I go and

466
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: check that number. You know, how is Kirk doing and

467
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 1: the play action or moving outside the pike and still

468
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: bad every week? He basically isn't moving. He's just winning

469
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: from the pocket. It's happening. And Mike McDonald's been under

470
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: a lot of heat this week in Seattle. The honeymoon's

471
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: kind of over, just because they look so similar in

472
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: the ways that they're losing to the ways that they

473
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,239
Speaker 1: lost the last few years. Bad tackling, a lot of

474
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: just mistackle. It's boring stuff, it's bad run fits, it's

475
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: just guys not being in the spot that they are

476
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: supposed to be. And I'm curious because I know it

477
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,400
Speaker 1: was against Carolina Baldy last week, but I think if

478
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 1: Atlanta can get Tyler Alzier and Bijon Robinson working as

479
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: a duo like they did in that game and the

480
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 1: run came along a little bit too in that Tampa game,

481
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: then this then this team is real because the defense

482
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: Raheem Morris can scheme it up, but they need to

483
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: be a great, great offense, and for that to happen,

484
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: they need to get their running game cohesive. I don't

485
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 1: think they were the first month of the season in

486
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,439
Speaker 1: terms of their run blocking. You're you're the blocking specialist here.

487
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 1: It just wasn't really working. Are you feeling more confident

488
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,120
Speaker 1: about this running attack going up against Seattle.

489
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 4: Especially because it's against Seattle seas they're giving up thirty

490
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 4: five points a game? You know, I mean two weeks ago,

491
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 4: Tyrone Tracy Junior, if anybody knew who he was, went

492
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 4: up there and ran for one hundred and twenty nine

493
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 4: yards against Seattle. You know everybody's been they're giving up

494
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 4: five yards of carry. Uh, Atlanta's looking at that going

495
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 4: you know, why why don't we become a run first team?

496
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 5: Some days?

497
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 4: I think Tyler Algiers a better back than Bijon. Now,

498
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 4: Bijon's is an explosive and he could hit home runs.

499
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 4: But Tyler Algier is a quality back and he would

500
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 4: play for any team in this league. He breaks so

501
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 4: many tackles, he's so hard to attack. But the combination

502
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 4: is a very good combination. You can look at David

503
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 4: Montgomery and Jamier Gibbs, there's a couple really stand out,

504
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 4: you know, duos and running backs. But I think Bijon

505
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 4: and Tyler are really good. I think Seattle's going to

506
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 4: have problems. I also think that. I mean, if honestly,

507
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 4: if I was Kirk Cousins and I did want to

508
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 4: throw it, I might just throw it to Drake London

509
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:36,640
Speaker 4: every play because his catch radius, his route running, he's

510
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,400
Speaker 4: just an elite player, and he's an excellent blocker. He's

511
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 4: as good a run blocker at receiver as there is

512
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 4: in his whole league. He's a big part of that

513
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 4: running success and he knows how to do it without

514
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 4: getting run over and getting called for holding and all

515
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 4: this stuff. He's just very skilled at getting linebackers or

516
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 4: slot defenders like out of the way and let Bijeon

517
00:23:59,240 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 4: or Tyler go.

518
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,159
Speaker 3: And I'm looking over at that defense because the offense

519
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 3: is I don't have as many questions about. My concern

520
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 3: is with the Falcons because Andy Dalton they got, They

521
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 3: got a lot of hands on Andy Dalton passes last week.

522
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 3: A Jdrell eventually came back and gets him. And now

523
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 3: here's this kind of Schrodinger's receiver in DK Metcalf who's

524
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 3: either going off or doing nothing, and if he is

525
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 3: scoring touchdowns, they're getting called back. Kenny will Walker got

526
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 3: this this insane illegal formation penalty where he's just bouncing

527
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 3: up and down for no reason, and it caused DK

528
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 3: to get a touchdown called back.

529
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 6: There's a lot of cutaways because it's DK.

530
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,239
Speaker 3: The broadcast might play it up, but I'm looking at

531
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 3: this matchup and I do have some concern for the Falcons,

532
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 3: even though it has a.

533
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: There's similar teams to me right now in a way

534
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 1: in that I think Seattle and Atlanta both they need

535
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: to be elite offensively. That's that's their path, and I

536
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: think Seattle could could be that team. They're on a

537
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: little extra rest, They're on my extra rest watch. They

538
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 1: got they got the Thursday night game, so they got

539
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 1: they got three or four extra nights.

540
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 2: Than the Falcons.

541
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 1: I just don't the Falcons don't seem like a five

542
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: and two on a four game winning streak type of

543
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 1: team to me. So that's why I'm I'm leaning Seattle

544
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: in this one. We're gonna take a quick break on

545
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: NFL Daily. We'll be back. Baldy's gonna join us for

546
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 1: a couple more games. That's what we got time for.

547
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: Talk to him. Oh, it's a good one in the NFC.

548
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: Nointh back on NFL Daily. And when I looked at

549
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: this schedule, I just I kind of fell in love

550
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: with this Week seven. We got the Super Bowl rematch,

551
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 1: we got Russell Wilson versus Devanta Adams in a Steelers

552
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,239
Speaker 1: Jets game out of nowhere. And this block just has

553
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,439
Speaker 1: two beautiful games to start off with, including one in

554
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 1: the NFC North, two of the best teams in the NFL.

555
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 3: Yes, that's right, it's time for the Game of the

556
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 3: Week presented by DraftKings sports Book.

557
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 6: They didn't want the Super Bowl rematch Waldy.

558
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 3: They was said, I want the best division in football,

559
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 3: Sam Darnold in the Minnesota Vikings, a two and a

560
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 3: half point favorite with over under a fifty against Jared

561
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 3: Golf and the Detroit Lions.

562
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 6: How do you see this going, Balding.

563
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 4: So, if we're gonna go matchups here, Pat, I really

564
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 4: like Ben Johnson against Brian Flores, the number one offense

565
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 4: against the number one defense. To me, this is the

566
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 4: best matchup of the week, and for that reason because

567
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 4: Brian Flores has been brilliant this year, just brilliant in

568
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 4: what he's done between the takeaways, the sacks, almost positionless

569
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 4: football by amongst the different players, and what they're doing

570
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 4: to good quarterbacks and good offenses to be undefeated against

571
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 4: Detroit that you know, I mean, the best way to

572
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 4: counter some of the things Brian Flores does is to

573
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 4: run the ball right down your throat with you know,

574
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 4: with Penney Sewell and you know Frank Ragnow the whole

575
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 4: group up there. They're playing Kevin Zeidler, they're playing great,

576
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 4: and so I really want to see how Detroit attacks.

577
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 5: There's always new wrinkles.

578
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 4: There's always tricks, there's always explosive plays in Ben Jonson's system.

579
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 4: The Vikings haven't seen an offense this diverse where they

580
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 4: can pound you if they want to. They can nickel

581
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 4: and dimue with guys like Sam Laporta and Aman Ross

582
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 4: Saint Brown, or they can just burn you with you know,

583
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 4: a guy like you know Johnson right there on the outside.

584
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 4: So like, I just think this thing has all of

585
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 4: the elements that an analyst would love to dig into.

586
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 4: When you talk about matchups.

587
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I looked, you know, at the matchups from last year.

588
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: I don't know how predictive they are because it was

589
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: in December. It was Nick Mullen starting for the Vikings.

590
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 1: By that point of the season, the Flora's defense was

591
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: not playing as effectively. That said, they were actually pretty

592
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: evenly played yardage wise, they were both quite even and

593
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 1: and the Lions won, you know, two close games there.

594
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 2: I want to see if Aaron Jones plays in this game.

595
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,360
Speaker 2: We don't know. They traded for cam Akers again.

596
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,919
Speaker 1: Yes, since we last taped the Show's that cam Akers

597
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: has trade value still after those two achilles.

598
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 2: He's been running hard this year now.

599
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: It is like a six to seventh round pick swap

600
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: and might speak to their not as confident and ty

601
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 1: Chandler as the backup for Aaron Jones, but to me,

602
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 1: he's really important. He kind of reminds me of Aaron

603
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 1: Jones in Green Bay where just nothing worked as well

604
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 1: when Aaron Jones wasn't there. And you kind of saw

605
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: that in the London game once he was out. Probably

606
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,360
Speaker 1: Seam Darnold's worst performance, and it'll be interesting to see

607
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 1: how he looks going up against this Lions defense. Yeah,

608
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 1: that they don't have a great pass rush and so

609
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: he should have time with Aiden Hutchinson not there, but

610
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 1: their secondary I think has been getting better every week.

611
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 6: Yeah, better every.

612
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 3: Week, And why not go ahead and give him the

613
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 3: toughest test the football can provide in Justin Jefferson, who's

614
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 3: faced actually press coverage on thirty seven snaps this season

615
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 3: and only has three catches there without a pass rush

616
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 3: against the guy who has traditionally torched the Detroit Lions

617
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 3: in his games against them all. If you want to

618
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 3: go fantasy wise, he averages over twenty three points a

619
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 3: game every single time he plays the Detroit Lions at Like,

620
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 3: how much are you gonna send Carlton Davis and Terry

621
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 3: on Arnold maybe out to play a man press against

622
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson when we've seen, right Sam Darnold's predilection to

623
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 3: load up Justin Jefferson with targets, which I mean, we

624
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 3: can't criticize, but I still think it's fine. It's fat

625
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 3: if you want to do that, But it's just it's

626
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 3: such a great matchup, and I think, like with the

627
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 3: way that koc is calling plays, Uh, it's it's tough,

628
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 3: butall it's tough to look at this and say, well, yeah,

629
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 3: Jared's gonna solve Flores and and they're gonna win this

630
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 3: game in Minnesota with them playing such a good football.

631
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, you've got Jamison Williams on one side,

632
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 4: you got Justin Jefferson on the other side. Uh, you know,

633
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 4: Carlton Carlton Davis has been unbelievable pick up for him.

634
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 4: He's playing great football a week in week out. I mean, uh,

635
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 4: his ability to read routes, to play in sticky coverage.

636
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 4: They're putting a lot on him right now and he's

637
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 4: delivering like he did in Tampa. He was their best

638
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 4: corner of Tampa he's their best corner right now, so

639
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 4: he's gonna see a Justin The one thing I love

640
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 4: about Justin Jefferson is he has a plan to get

641
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 4: open and then he has a plan after the catch.

642
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 5: The guy is he's a remarkable player.

643
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 4: And so, uh, you know, if Aaron Jones can't go,

644
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 4: they're gonna have to lean on the creativity of Kevin O'Connell.

645
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 4: His creative genius. I don't know if it's genius, but

646
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 4: he's He's very creative in the passing game. And they'll

647
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 4: they'll create you know, whether Detroit sad man or zone whatever,

648
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 4: they'll they'll have the right plays up against the predictable coverage.

649
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 4: And that's one of the strengths of what Kevin's done

650
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 4: this year.

651
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it'll be interesting if Detroit can get a

652
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: lead in this game. You know, the Vikings defense hasn't

653
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: had to play from behind, they haven't had to stop

654
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: the run as much. And nothing will test your toughness

655
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 1: up front. And they have a great rotation of players

656
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: up front of Minnesota, but nothing will test your toughness.

657
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: Then this offensive line is running after you over and over.

658
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 1: Blake Cashman has turf toe that was the surprise coming

659
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 1: out of the buy. So he is week to week,

660
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,239
Speaker 1: but he's gonna miss this game. Really looking forward to

661
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: this one, Lions Vikings. We had to wrap up with

662
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 1: the game of the week from uh, you know, the

663
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 1: one of the goat analysts in this business. He's been

664
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: doing it back since he was on those Fox broadcasts.

665
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: He's still going strong and he's got a million different shows.

666
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 1: You got to get to one of them. Any any

667

683
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, we just talked about how the North in the

684
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 3: NFC the best division of football right now. The Green

685
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 3: Bay Packers get another fun one in Lambeau. They are

686
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 3: two and a half point favorites greg against the Houston Texans.

687
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 3: It is good news for them. They get some of

688
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 3: their wide receivers back. We're gonna wait to see what

689
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 3: don Tavian Wix's status is for this game. The problem

690
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 3: for Houston they're going to be their second straight game

691
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 3: without Nico Collins over under forty seven and a half.

692
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 6: We get Nansen, Romo and Tracy on the call. It's

693
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 6: the A. It's the A one for CBS and I

694
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 6: think it should be.

695
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: It's yeah, good game again. This week has a number

696
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 1: of bangers. I just wanted to just make a note here.

697
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 6: Oka.

698
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 1: You know how I set you up there and then

699
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: you said, Okay, it's Texans, it's Packers' it's the points.

700
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 1: I happened to have looked at the comments uh recently

701
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: on YouTube ones you shouldn't do Probably one one of

702
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 1: the comments was commenting on your handsomeness, which was that

703
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: was funny that them.

704
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 2: The heart eye emojis.

705
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 1: Another mentioned like, why is Patrick always like cutting Greg

706
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 1: off to set up the games?

707
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 2: Doesn't he know that Greg's the host?

708
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: So I just wanted to say, for your sake, Patrick,

709
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 1: you're doing me a favor. We're a team here on Wednesdays,

710
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: and you're taking a little off my plate here on

711
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 1: the on the preview show Thursdays rather and that's that's

712
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 1: that's how we're doing it.

713
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 2: Obviously it's on purpose. He's not cutting me off.

714
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 6: People. Yeah, I don't like to interrupted.

715
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 3: This is NFL with Greg Ross all the key there

716
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 3: being daily Greg's doing a lot. Yeah, So if I

717
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 3: if I could jump in here and do the thing

718
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 3: where I talk too much as another as I'm looking

719
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 3: at the YouTube commenter, uh say that, uh that I

720
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 3: am a shield NFL android.

721
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 2: Oh don't don't look. Okay, now we're getting no.

722
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 6: No, it's fine.

723
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 3: It's fine because I get to sit in here in

724
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,479
Speaker 3: the Chris Wesley podcast studio with you and do this.

725
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 3: I'll take whatever any loser man eighty four sixty three

726
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 3: wants to slide.

727
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 2: I just wanted to point that out. It was actually

728
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:16,479
Speaker 2: weeks ago.

729
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: Then I saw that and I thought it was funny,

730
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 1: and it just crossed my mind that that is red.

731
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 6: I'm cutting you off right now, Greg.

732
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

733
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 1: I don't know where we are in this game. But one,

734
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: all right, one thing I want to you mentioned the

735
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: Texans offense. I think they're one of the strangest things

736
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 1: going on in football right now. I just I don't

737
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,439
Speaker 1: think they're playing well, but I just think they have

738
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: an elite quarterback who's playing like he's having the second

739
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 1: year leap that one of the best rookie quarterbacks of

740
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: all time you would hope that he's had. And it's

741
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 1: not totally showing up because I think there's another world

742
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:54,319
Speaker 1: where this team is really struggling and everyone is saying, oh, well,

743
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 1: the coaching is not smart and the offensive line is

744
00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: not great, like what is going on in Houston.

745
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 2: C J.

746
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: Stroud is declining, but he's just such an exceptional player

747
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: that he's making it all look good. Even against the Patriots,

748
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 1: like their success rate on a play to play basis

749
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 1: was not good, but they had these short fields and

750
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: he just is making incredible plays. And I don't know

751
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: what like, my takeaway from all that is other than

752
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: I think when you play better defenses, it could show

753
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: up more. I just am not sure that the Packers

754
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: are one of those better defenses.

755
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 2: The Packers are.

756
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: They're fine, They're gonna get a lot of turnovers, but

757
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's replicable. I mean, it's it

758
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: has been so far, but are you gonna be able

759
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: to do that all season long? Otherwise you're not a

760
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 1: great pass rush. You're working in more rookies, which I

761
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: think is a positive. Edgerrin Cooper and Evan Williams were

762
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,280
Speaker 1: two guys last week that really popped a rookie linebacker

763
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,360
Speaker 1: in a rookie safety, and so I think that's a positive.

764
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 1: I think they're making those changes maybe because they're not

765
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 1: happy with what's going on on the places where Xavier

766
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: McKinney isn't just making the best interception you've ever seen.

767
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 1: So I don't know what my takeaway is with this

768
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,720
Speaker 1: Houston team other than just c J. Stroud is freaking amazing,

769
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: and the running game is way better when you have

770
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon back there. Joe Mixon is proof that running

771
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:06,439
Speaker 1: backs matter.

772
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I was going to throw those two things

773
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 3: in there for you, because the games, because if you

774
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 3: look at the season long, right, and we're thinking points

775
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,320
Speaker 3: per game and what we expect, they score seven against

776
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 3: the Minnesota Vikings, right, they get the Bears game out

777
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,800
Speaker 3: of the way, which they win nineteen to thirteen. Those

778
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 3: are two top ten defenses in the NFL right now,

779
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 3: and so now they come into this game. They scored

780
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 3: forty one on New England. Again, regardless of what we

781
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 3: think about the Patriots, that's without Nico Collins.

782
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 2: A lot of defense hoping there.

783
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 3: But yes, I feel confident in this offense that I

784
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 3: don't necessarily think they're going to get a win here

785
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 3: because again, this defense opportunistic, mainly Xavier McKinney, whose pickstreak

786
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 3: did come to an end last week. So we miss

787
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 3: out on the fun packers counting to five, six and seven.

788
00:36:55,680 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 3: Maybe they'll keep counting with his next opportunity. But it's

789
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,919
Speaker 3: the way that Jordan Love is playing with Jayden Reids specifically,

790
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 3: because I used to be one of those that was

791
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 3: very critical of this idea that this is hey, you

792
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 3: get you get cheese debo addition, and I'm like that

793
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 3: we keep trying to find Deebo Samuel Clones and it's

794
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 3: stopped doing it. But how much does he weigh? He

795
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,240
Speaker 3: doesn't weigh anything, No, and he's not running through people.

796
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 3: But the but the shiftedness, the ability to be involved

797
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 3: in the run game, in the past game, in the

798
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 3: particular ways in within this tree of offense that that

799
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 3: has roots now from sea to Shining Sea. It's it's

800
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,399
Speaker 3: just it's good and it's tough. It's tough to pick

801
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 3: the Texans on the road. U here in two really

802
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 3: good teams, which I think it will come down.

803
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:47,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're similar in that they they're so good,

804
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:51,439
Speaker 1: they have such good coaches, and they're just good organizations.

805
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 1: Right right now, where the Texans are at in terms

806
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: of bringing into Migo Ryans and their player acquisition, that

807
00:37:56,960 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 1: they can survive a first six games of the season,

808
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: I actually don't think either team has been at their

809
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 1: total best, and yet they're five to one and four

810
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 1: and two. Jordan loves performance last week. I know that

811
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 1: it was a favorable matchup, but I just think it's

812
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: gonna give him confidence and give this offense confidence that

813
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,719
Speaker 1: they're kind of back to where they expected to be.

814
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: Now they're going up against a Texans defense that's second

815
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: in the NFL right now in Dvoa. I mean it

816
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 1: has been a really good defense. The defense has been

817
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: better than their offense. I think it's the bigger him.

818
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,959
Speaker 1: The defense and CJ. Strat are the reason why they're

819
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: five and one. They both their starting linebackers were out

820
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: of practice on Wednesday. Kamari Lassiter and Jimmy Ward are

821
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 1: also out of practice on Wednesday. Two guys in the secondary.

822
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: So that's just interesting, important players to watch as the

823
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: week goes on in terms of their availability. But yeah,

824
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 1: I do think Joe Mixon, the way he's running makes

825
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,760
Speaker 1: a big difference for this team.

826
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 2: I have I have a hard time picking this game.

827
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 2: I have not decided.

828
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 3: Oh game, We've got game deview coming up later on

829
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 3: this week on NFL Network. We go to our next game.

830
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,839
Speaker 3: It is the Arizona Cardinals playing host to the Los

831
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 3: Angeles Chargers, who are a three point favorite coming off

832
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,439
Speaker 3: of their win against the Denver Broncos. The over under

833
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:15,720
Speaker 3: is forty three and a half. Ken Kyler and the

834
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,439
Speaker 3: Birds offense Greg get whatever this slump is figured out?

835
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 1: Yes, cause it's like they're in every other game team

836
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: so it just feels like they're either terrible or awesome.

837
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 2: And in every other game.

838
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:30,320
Speaker 1: And I worry that Marvin Harrison Junior won't be available

839
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 1: for this game. He's coming off a concussion, so we

840
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: don't know if he's going to be out of the

841
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: protocol by Sunday. There's no way to know early in

842
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 1: the week, and if he's not there, then you start

843
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,280
Speaker 1: worrying about Okay, we know the defense isn't that talented,

844
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,439
Speaker 1: but is this offense maybe as talented as we thought

845
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: coming into the year. The running game has just not

846
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 1: been as consistent as you would have liked. Trey McBride

847
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 1: had a nice game last week, certainly, but it's a

848
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: tough matchup. This is charged defense has really improved, and

849
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 1: we'll see what they do when they have to play

850
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: some of the better offenses in the league, but there

851
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: aren't many of them on their schedule. They've been very

852
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: I just would say sound when I watch them. They

853
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,839
Speaker 1: don't make any mistakes. That to me speaks to good

854
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: coaching from Jesse Minter. Guys who were struggling in other systems,

855
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 1: like Christian Fulton at cornerbacker, are playing very well for them.

856
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: They're linebackers, who I thought were a question mark. I've

857
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: been again, very solid in the run, in the pass game.

858
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 1: It's just just a really good defense that you have

859
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 1: to earn your yards against, and I think that's a

860
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: matchup that could favor the Chargers. I'm kind of falling

861
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: for this Chargers team, though it doesn't take much for me.

862
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 3: No, it's good to see a healthy yer, justin Hepberg

863
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 3: I go out there and play, you wonder about their

864
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 3: availability on the outside, because.

865
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 6: There was a point where now I'm blanking on.

866
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 3: The Fojoko No, the rookie wide receiver out of he

867
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 3: won two national championship.

868
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 2: I ad McConkey.

869
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'slat mccauckey left the game against the Broncos, and

870
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 3: I'm like, what are they gonna do? Like how many

871
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 3: targets are going to funnel to Josh Palmer. But then

872
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 3: Cammadie the Dell, the all time leading rusher at Troy University,

873
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,800
Speaker 3: gets out there, runs a wheel route, scores a touchdown.

874
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 3: But the one thing that did concern me about that

875
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 3: Chargers defense was how many rushing yards bo Knicks was

876
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 3: piling up in the second half. And if you're gonna

877
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 3: have a low scoring game, and you're gonna be playing

878
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 3: against Kyler Murray, who is in a slump right now.

879
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 3: That's gonna need to be something that you get figured out.

880
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,279
Speaker 3: And so we've seen this Arizona Cardinals defense kind of

881
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 3: step up in stifled teams in this game. Being in Arizona,

882
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 3: I might make one of those inexplicable picks where I

883
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 3: picked the home dog and just fail miserably.

884
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 6: I think I can make a pace for it.

885
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Chargers are three and two. They're in the

886
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 1: middle of the pack for a reason. If the Cardinals

887
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,839
Speaker 1: lose this game and fall to two and five, kind

888
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,919
Speaker 1: of their their excitement level of this season goes down

889
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 1: quite a bit, Like this is an important game for them.

890
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 6: JK.

891
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 2: Dobbins looked really good coming off of buy. Sometimes.

892
00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:59,799
Speaker 1: I think you can tell with running backs when they

893
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 1: they've had a week off that they they just look better.

894
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: I just the thing I struggled with the most each

895
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 1: and every week with the Cardinals is their overall talent

896
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:08,120
Speaker 1: on defense.

897
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 2: I think it's the worst, the worst group in the NFL.

898
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: Just maybe buy a decent amount, Like in terms of

899
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: just if you lined up all the players.

900
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,840
Speaker 6: Who literally put them on point scale.

901
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, or just you drafted like all the defensive players

902
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 1: in the league, like the Cardinals, like their players would

903
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:29,239
Speaker 1: get taken on average the latest and that's why and

904
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: it's no shot to them, but that's why. It's the

905
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 1: ESPN Plus game. We got a doubleheader again on Monday night,

906
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,279
Speaker 1: a little different though. This is the first it's an

907
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 1: eight pm Eastern and nine pm Eastern start, but the

908
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 1: ESPN Plus game is the second one.

909
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 2: Just weird.

910
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 1: I just wanted to point that out for people who

911
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: are planning this. This is never I'm pretty sure this

912
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 1: particular setup has never happened before. So this is the

913
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 1: Orlovski and Riddick and Laura, Rutledge and Fouler crew, which

914
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: I like that crew. I kind of like that crew,

915
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 1: but that they'll be on ESPN Plus, be on my

916
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 1: iPad while you got Bucks and Ravens on the main screens.

917
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 3: As an NFL Android, Greg, I do want to stress

918
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 3: that I love every decision that our beloved league mix, but.

919
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 1: That one's probably up to ESPN, I guess. But yeah,

920
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:14,479
Speaker 1: in conjunction, it's all.

921
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 6: Time I watch it.

922
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 3: I watch games simultaneously like it's it's what I do

923
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 3: bleep blooplourb But the thing I like about Prome time

924
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,359
Speaker 3: games is we're all watching the same game.

925
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: I love that, and I just don't. I don't really,

926
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:29,399
Speaker 1: I don't like it. Greg, I don't either. Just play

927
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,879
Speaker 1: if you're at ninth So they're playing at nine pm.

928
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 1: That's got to be the latest start since they moved

929
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,879
Speaker 1: Monday night football back. Remember when Monday night football used

930
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 1: to just be at nine to fifteen. Wasn't that just

931
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: a thing? Which is crazy to think about when I

932
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 1: was like a high school kid just trying to stay

933
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:46,680
Speaker 1: awake past midnight to watch these freaking games. So it's

934
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: been the latest one in a while. If you're going

935
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,399
Speaker 1: to play a game at nine pm Eastern, just start

936
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 1: the first one at six pm.

937
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:52,840
Speaker 2: I promise.

938
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 1: Out here on the West Coast, we'll be watching at three.

939
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: It's the NFL we'll be watching. Maybe it's not as many.

940
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,680
Speaker 3: Because somebody's gonna like, oh, we all are going to

941
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 3: be a traffic. You were being traffic anyway, It's fine, yeah, good.

942
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:07,880
Speaker 3: I like the doubleheaders. I don't like him at the same.

943
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 6: Leave us alone. I'm with you. We're in our cars.

944
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 3: Let's get to our next matchup Miami at Indianapolis, who

945
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 3: is a three point favorite. Ryan Kelly missing practice, We're

946
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 3: not necessarily sure who they're going to be starting at

947
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 3: running back. Tray Sermon dealing with his shoulder injury. They

948
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:26,279
Speaker 3: go and get Savon Ahmed in a potential revenge game

949
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 3: against the Dolphins that perhaps tool list Dolphins. I don't

950
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 3: know what to think about this game, Greg. The over

951
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,760
Speaker 3: under is forty three and a half points. Maybe Anthony

952
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 3: Richardson's back, Maybe it's not Joe Flacco. A lot of maybes.

953
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,560
Speaker 3: Kevin Coogli or Daryl Johnson and Laura Oakman on the call.

954
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:47,280
Speaker 1: That's yeah, it is expected that Anthony Richardson will play

955
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 1: in this game. He practiced fully on Wednesday, and the

956
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:52,960
Speaker 1: coaching staff is not giving away the answer. So I

957
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,720
Speaker 1: appreciate you leaving some vagueness, but the reporting has said

958
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 1: expectations from our insiders. Speaking of N Network insiders, Jonathan

959
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 1: Taylor was on with Tom Pelisaro oh this week on

960
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,319
Speaker 1: The Insiders, and that made me think, like, oh, is

961
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 1: he playing this week?

962
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 2: Like why would he be on?

963
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,240
Speaker 1: And Pelisara did a Goodjeff asses yeah, and he said,

964
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: you know, would you put him in back in your

965
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 1: Fantasy Libe and he said, I'm definitely feeling better this week,

966
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 1: so I would just why is he doing shows if

967
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,480
Speaker 1: he's not going to play, So I would. I'm hopeful.

968
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 1: And this team just doesn't make any sense without Jonathan

969
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 1: Taylor to me, and actually Anthony Richards, it makes a

970
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 1: lot less sense without Jonathan Taylor. They are they are

971
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 1: a combo platter and they're a fun one. And this

972
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: is a matchup against the Dolphins team which still doesn't

973
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 1: have Bradley Chubb back. I think next week might be

974
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:39,359
Speaker 1: the week that we see Bradley Chubb on the field again.

975
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 1: It's it's probably not going to be this week. This

976
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: is kind of the the like bad teams with decent

977
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 1: record Bowl like, oh okay, seasons can change. That's why

978
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 1: we did that segment on Wednesday. Things will change. Both

979
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 1: of these teams are candidates to actually be good like

980
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 1: in December. It could happen, and they really haven't been

981
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 1: good this part of the season. But the Dolphins are

982
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: two and three, the Culture three and three, So to me,

983
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 1: it's kind of a big game for the AFC playoff

984
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,319
Speaker 1: picture because they can just survive this portion of the

985
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 1: schedule and then actually become as good as the record

986
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: says they are.

987
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 3: Eventually, we need an animation for like the bad teams

988
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:16,800
Speaker 3: with decent records.

989
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: But I mean, the Dolphins might be the worst team

990
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,080
Speaker 1: in the NFL so far, but they're two and three.

991
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,440
Speaker 1: I guess they're better than the Patriots, for sure.

992
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 6: They beat them. They did.

993
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:26,799
Speaker 2: It's Tyler Huntley for another week.

994
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 6: It could have gone either way.

995
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 3: I have confidence in Anthony Richardson mainly because he could

996
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:37,480
Speaker 3: be scattershot, but he could do that against a good defense.

997
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 3: He could do that against a bad defense. Whether Bradley

998
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 3: Chubb is there a lot. My main thing is whether

999
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,680
Speaker 3: it's Anthony Richardson or Joe Flacco. I'm looking every single

1000
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 3: week at Alec Pierce running down the field by himself,

1001
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 3: and we're late into the fourth quarter and Alec Pearce

1002
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,919
Speaker 3: isn't seeing any targets in the ones that he does. Again,

1003
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 3: whether it's Flacco or Anthony Richardson, we don't necessarily know

1004
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 3: out where they're going, but I think he is such

1005
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 3: a deep threat in a game that could be low scoring,

1006
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:07,400
Speaker 3: Alec Pierce can put one in the paint.

1007
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:12,279
Speaker 1: Okay, I like that to your point. He has averaged

1008
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,880
Speaker 1: three targets per game over the last four weeks. That's crazy,

1009
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:17,839
Speaker 1: crazy talk.

1010
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 6: It's an error.

1011
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 1: And yeah, he burned Lagarious Need a couple times last week,

1012
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 1: but they just couldn't They couldn't connect on a win

1013
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:28,839
Speaker 1: on a touchdown in that when Kalays Campbell just shout

1014
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 1: out to him playing so well, it's crazy. He's been one,

1015
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 1: weirdly one of the most underpaid players in the league

1016
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: last four years because every year he just signs like

1017
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,799
Speaker 1: a one year contract as this older veteran and he

1018
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:40,760
Speaker 1: provides like elite production and he's doing it again.

1019
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 2: Dolphins, Colts, Dolphins. I don't know.

1020
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 1: I don't think the Dolphins are done yet, especially with

1021
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:48,920
Speaker 1: two a tongue of ilo. If they could just scrape

1022
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,879
Speaker 1: out this win, get to three and three Tua comes back,

1023
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,319
Speaker 1: maybe they start playing better. We are going to take

1024
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: another break here on NFL Daily and we'll get to

1025
00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:01,360
Speaker 1: that other Monday night football game that I mentioned Ravens

1026
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: Bucks after the break. It's a different sort of week

1027
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Great games. We got the NFL Networks

1028
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 1: Swan song in London this week, although we'll be back

1029
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 1: of course in Germany and some December games.

1030
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 2: But that's Chris Rose, our friend on a call up.

1031
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:33,319
Speaker 6: That's kind of fun.

1032
00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:34,399
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that game in a sec.

1033
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:38,040
Speaker 1: But first, it's the prime Monday night game Ravens Bucks.

1034
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 3: It's the one that we've been waiting to see an

1035
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:44,880
Speaker 3: MVP candidate again against an MVP candidate.

1036
00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 2: Oh stop Baker.

1037
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 3: Mayfield and the Bucks playing host to Lamar Jackson.

1038
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 2: Three interceptions last week three and a.

1039
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 3: Half boy Favorites on Monday Night Football with Joe, Troy

1040
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 3: and Lisa on the call. Or you can watch the Mannings,

1041
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:02,520
Speaker 3: or you can just chill and watch game Center. We

1042
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,800
Speaker 3: love Greg Baltimore. What is game Center for the listeners

1043
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,600
Speaker 3: so that they can understand? Game Center provides you stats,

1044
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:13,720
Speaker 3: highlights as well as social interactions every single week.

1045
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:16,879
Speaker 1: Check it out during the game on NFL Network, during

1046
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:19,960
Speaker 1: any game, during any prime time game. Really you can

1047
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: check it out.

1048
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 2: I think yeah.

1049
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:26,719
Speaker 1: At some point the network found out that instead of

1050
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,319
Speaker 1: putting on like old Football Lives, if you just put

1051
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,400
Speaker 1: up like a blank screen with with stats on it,

1052
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:34,880
Speaker 1: like a lot of people watch it. It must be

1053
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 1: a second screen for a lot of people. Well, or

1054
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 1: who knows, they don't have. They don't have ESPN Plus

1055
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 1: and they want that station.

1056
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:41,600
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1057
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 3: We love free ad supported television, which is our NFL

1058
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:49,319
Speaker 3: Fast channel, free ad supported television, which as we used

1059
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 3: to call television. I have an air Android. So yeah,

1060
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 3: about this game, it was like get caught off on

1061
00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 3: a tangent Baltimore so hot right now, Greg, One of

1062
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 3: the big surprises is just how well Rashad Bateman has

1063
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:11,279
Speaker 3: played in recent weeks. Lamar Jackson gets Mark Andrews back

1064
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 3: in the fold last week against the Washington Commanders against

1065
00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:18,800
Speaker 3: now a Tampa Bay defense which has seen Baker throw

1066
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,439
Speaker 3: three interceptions, but they still scored fifty one points. Gret

1067
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,239
Speaker 3: a Tampa Bay running up and down the field as well.

1068
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 3: This one could be high scoring because this Ravens defense

1069
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 3: hasn't necessarily fixed all of the problems that they had

1070
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 3: earlier this year.

1071
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,240
Speaker 1: Now they're a mediocre team against the pass. They're almost

1072
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:39,399
Speaker 1: impossible to run again still, which happens year after year

1073
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:42,319
Speaker 1: after year. It used to say that about the Buccaneers too,

1074
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 1: and they've improved in recent weeks, so maybe they're rounding

1075
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:47,399
Speaker 1: into form for what you expect a Todd Bowles team.

1076
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:49,799
Speaker 1: To be, and so then it's more about the passing game,

1077
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:52,840
Speaker 1: and you certainly favor Lamar Jackson in that scenario, but

1078
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 1: the Bucks passing game has levels. Liam Cohen has been

1079
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 1: a really nice fit for Baker in mitigating some of

1080
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 1: his bad habits, getting the ball out quickly, Chris Godwin

1081
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 1: playing fantastic, and these these Ravens defensive backs just don't

1082
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:13,840
Speaker 1: inspire a lot of confidence. There was a lot of

1083
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:17,080
Speaker 1: hype about it, like a Marlin Humphy Humphrey revenge season.

1084
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:17,760
Speaker 2: He's been fine.

1085
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,480
Speaker 1: He hasn't been their issue, but Nate Wiggins seems like

1086
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 1: Marcus Williams is often involved in giving up big plays.

1087
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,640
Speaker 1: When they had that lead against Washington last week, I

1088
00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 1: kept saying on Sky Sports we were doing the game there,

1089
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 1: and I'm just like, they're gonna keep giving up points,

1090
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:36,399
Speaker 1: Like Jayden Daniels is not gonna make this easy on them.

1091
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 1: And so I think if the Ravens are playing, it's

1092
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 1: weird because I don't think they're a great team with

1093
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,880
Speaker 1: the lead, just because I think their weakness on defense

1094
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,319
Speaker 1: is giving up big plays in the secondary. So this

1095
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:47,840
Speaker 1: is a game where I could see playing out in

1096
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:50,880
Speaker 1: a similar sort of way. High scoring Ravens offense is

1097
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:52,800
Speaker 1: the absolute best in the league. The Bucks don't have

1098
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 1: enough pass rush to really bother Lamar, but that Tampa

1099
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 1: keeps up and it gives us points and gives us

1100
00:51:58,200 --> 00:51:59,279
Speaker 1: a lot of fun on a Monday night.

1101
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, point, your defense becomes Derrick Henry in the fourth quarter, because,

1102
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,759
Speaker 3: as you pointed out, best offense, it's it's impossible to

1103
00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 3: make the argument against that. The number one passing efficiency

1104
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:13,400
Speaker 3: offense in the league, the number one rushing efficiency offense

1105
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,839
Speaker 3: in the league, and the King being such a big

1106
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,840
Speaker 3: part of that, where you know, the cliche about getting

1107
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:21,799
Speaker 3: stronger as the game goes on and wearing defense is down.

1108
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,839
Speaker 3: I really think it's more of Derek Henry can break

1109
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,959
Speaker 3: one at any point, whether it's his first carry against

1110
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,239
Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills or whether it's late in the game

1111
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 3: as it was against the Washington Commanders.

1112
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:34,040
Speaker 6: And then there's this.

1113
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 3: Kind of conflict that they have you in late where

1114
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,120
Speaker 3: I'm watching that game with Rob Rivera, who was spectacular

1115
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,799
Speaker 3: in the preview show with you a few weeks ago.

1116
00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:45,839
Speaker 1: Greg, Oh, thank you you were watching the game with him.

1117
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had Ron in studio for Game Day Live

1118
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:52,359
Speaker 3: on WOW and he's looking at that last play and says, well,

1119
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 3: the problem here is Lamar is going to pull this

1120
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:57,120
Speaker 3: ball and run it for a first down while everybody's

1121
00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 3: chasing Derrick Henry. Well, and behold, it happens for some

1122
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 3: reason Lamar stops running at the sideline and takes a shot,

1123
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:04,839
Speaker 3: which I don't necessarily what. I wish you would stop

1124
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 3: doing that, But but he's got the Bucks defense in

1125
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:11,160
Speaker 3: conflict there number twenty eight in rushing efficiency defense.

1126
00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,720
Speaker 6: Hmmm, still feel confident there?

1127
00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:17,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, Now those stats were mostly without Vietavea on the

1128
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:20,880
Speaker 1: field or Colijah Cansi on the field. They were healthier,

1129
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:22,920
Speaker 1: and I think you saw that. I know they had

1130
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,480
Speaker 1: a bad quarter against Spencer Rattler there, but they have

1131
00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:28,719
Speaker 1: more playmakers now that Antoine Winfield is back to and

1132
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 1: I think that's probably the best way to stop Baltimore.

1133
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 1: You're you're most likely going to give up a lot

1134
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:36,080
Speaker 1: of yards in a decent amount of points. But can

1135
00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: you somehow turn Lamar over like a time or two,

1136
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:43,200
Speaker 1: Antoine Winfield. It'll be on them to do so. I

1137
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:44,839
Speaker 1: still like the Ravens. I like the Ravens this week.

1138
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:45,919
Speaker 1: I like the Ravens every week.

1139
00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, if Baker and companies score like they have been,

1140
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 3: maybe Lamar does the thing where he's holding onto the

1141
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,759
Speaker 3: ball too long trying to score touchdowns and somebody gets

1142
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:54,239
Speaker 3: a hand on one.

1143
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 6: Vita Via knocks one out. Let's get to a game.

1144
00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 3: I know you're fired up for Greg because you just

1145
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:02,319
Speaker 3: got back from across the Atlantic Ocean as well as

1146
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:04,160
Speaker 3: the lower forty eight. Shout out to you for the

1147
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:09,279
Speaker 3: distance traveled. The New England Patriots a five and a

1148
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:12,439
Speaker 3: half point underdog against the team that has won one

1149
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,560
Speaker 3: game in the Jacksonville Jaguars, because there are people like

1150
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,239
Speaker 3: me who would insist on believing in them. The over

1151
00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 3: under forty two and a half. Chris Rose, Joe Thomas,

1152
00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:24,719
Speaker 3: Steve Wise on the call, Rise, Shine and Watch on

1153
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:28,239
Speaker 3: NFL Network, also available on NFL Plus. By the way,

1154
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 3: does Jacksonville get it figured out against your Pats?

1155
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:31,239
Speaker 6: Bread?

1156
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 1: I've gotten back and forth on who I want to

1157
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 1: pick in this game. Five and a half's crazy, Yeah,

1158
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 1: that's nuts. Jaguars are together such a bad team. You

1159
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,200
Speaker 1: can't give them five and a half points even against

1160
00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 1: the Patriots. But man, the Patriots are poorly coached on offense.

1161
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,439
Speaker 1: I was more excited about Drake me until I went

1162
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:53,680
Speaker 1: back and watched the entire game plan and it's just

1163
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,279
Speaker 1: not cohesive. I don't know if they're well coached. They're

1164
00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 1: certain he's certainly not well protected. He did some things

1165
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:03,919
Speaker 1: individual that we're exciting. And you look at the next

1166
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:07,440
Speaker 1: gen stats for this matchup, and on balance, the Jaguars

1167
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:11,120
Speaker 1: pass defense is the absolute worst in the league, and

1168
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:13,880
Speaker 1: you could see it in that matchup on Sunday.

1169
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:15,120
Speaker 2: I was there for it.

1170
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:17,880
Speaker 1: Just a lot of confusion, a lot of guys looking

1171
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,959
Speaker 1: at each other after the play. So if ever Drake

1172
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,840
Speaker 1: May and this passing attack was gonna get it going consistently,

1173
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:25,200
Speaker 1: it would be in this matchup. And that's why I

1174
00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 1: think it'll go down to the wire. It May gives

1175
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:30,560
Speaker 1: us game a little bit more juice. I know Chris

1176
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 1: Rose was asking about it in the film room a

1177
00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. When do you think they're gonna

1178
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:36,719
Speaker 1: go to May? Greg, I was like, I bet by

1179
00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:38,880
Speaker 1: the time you're doing that game. And then I was

1180
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,080
Speaker 1: in London with Steve Weiss last week and we're talking

1181
00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:43,839
Speaker 1: about and he's like he was excited that Drake May

1182
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:47,239
Speaker 1: is in this game because you just like watching good

1183
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:50,960
Speaker 1: quarterback play. And Trevor Lawrence has not been consistent this year.

1184
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,400
Speaker 1: But if there's a slumpbuster out there, it's the Patriots defense.

1185
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 1: They are one of the worst in the league too.

1186
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 3: But you were there, Greg, Was that not the best

1187
00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,760
Speaker 3: game Trevor Lawrence had played all season?

1188
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 2: Second best.

1189
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 1: I think he's played his two best in a row

1190
00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:06,759
Speaker 1: Colts game. He was really sharp this game. Once you're

1191
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:08,799
Speaker 1: time once or twice, I think he passed up on

1192
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,080
Speaker 1: guys that were there, So maybe that doesn't show up

1193
00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:14,040
Speaker 1: in the box score, but like they were there and

1194
00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:15,840
Speaker 1: I think the progression would have taken them there and

1195
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 1: then he just doesn't throw it.

1196
00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:17,919
Speaker 2: But he did.

1197
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,520
Speaker 1: He played fine in that game. If Lawrence played like

1198
00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:22,440
Speaker 1: he did the last two weeks all season, no one

1199
00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:23,440
Speaker 1: would be complaining about him.

1200
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 2: Absolutely.

1201
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:26,759
Speaker 3: And the Bears were eventually in a point where they

1202
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,000
Speaker 3: had to decide to stop running up the score. But

1203
00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 3: there was a point in that game in London where

1204
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,200
Speaker 3: it's a one score game. The Jags defense has a

1205
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:38,520
Speaker 3: third and eight penalty first down, They get another third

1206
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:42,399
Speaker 3: and fifteen penalty first down, and then it happens again.

1207
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:45,839
Speaker 6: It happened three times on the drive over d This.

1208
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 3: Team will when things are going right, something will go wrong.

1209
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:54,000
Speaker 3: And I just don't know how I can keep saying

1210
00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 3: that's gonna happen. But also how can I say that

1211
00:56:57,120 --> 00:57:01,720
Speaker 3: that's not going to happen when I pick this team

1212
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:03,000
Speaker 3: and they keep doing well.

1213
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:05,680
Speaker 1: Imagine being a Jaguars fan or AA the owner of

1214
00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:09,439
Speaker 1: the Jaguars shod con watching this. Ollie Connolly, I think,

1215
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,040
Speaker 1: made a good point that I did not notice at

1216
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:13,959
Speaker 1: the game. I was on the other sideline, so there's

1217
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,800
Speaker 1: no way I could have seen this that He's never

1218
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:20,160
Speaker 1: seen a more disconsolate, bad vibes not talking to each

1219
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:24,080
Speaker 1: other's sideline in the NFL or in any level of

1220
00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 1: football than this Jaguars team. So I don't want to

1221
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: overrate vibes, but something's wrong with Jacksonville and which when

1222
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 1: I when I started thinking about that, I was like, Okay,

1223
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 1: the Patriots can at least win this game.

1224
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 2: But man, there people aren't people aren't happy there.

1225
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 1: The defensive players aren't happy, like even they're good, players

1226
00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: like Keon White are kind of getting criticized because he's

1227
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 1: playing out of structure. They just seem extremely undisciplined on defense.

1228
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,680
Speaker 1: So even the things that you expected would be okay,

1229
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:51,760
Speaker 1: being on their p's and q's, they're not getting it done.

1230
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 1: And I saw Greg Bard, who I really respect, said

1231
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,640
Speaker 1: people are kind of missing in the Drake May excitement

1232
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:00,760
Speaker 1: in Boston the forest for the trees that this team

1233
00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 1: is so poorly run right now. And I was like, no,

1234
00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 1: I the forest is that they have a quarterback to

1235
00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:10,120
Speaker 1: that's He's the only thing that matters for this entire season.

1236
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: But I also see what he's saying that if this

1237
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:17,720
Speaker 1: coaching staff and this structure is not gonna be competent,

1238
00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 1: then they're gonna waste a couple of years of Drake

1239
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:22,840
Speaker 1: May's career, and so that I'm hoping that that can

1240
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 1: improve over the course of the season. I know they're

1241
00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:26,280
Speaker 1: not gonna win many games, but if they're gonna win

1242
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 1: a game, this would be one of them.

1243
00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1244
00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 3: If he's a tree in the forest, it's the tree

1245
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:34,960
Speaker 3: of life. He's like the central figure. When he wasn't pressured,

1246
00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:37,560
Speaker 3: he was twelve of eighteen for three touchdowns. If you're

1247
00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,080
Speaker 3: looking for good news, wow, in New England, that's pretty

1248
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 3: good for it. Yeah, he had a pick, but hey,

1249
00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:46,120
Speaker 3: three touchdowns. That's why we go with the ratio because.

1250
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 1: It's very watchable, very exciting young player. So that makes

1251
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 1: me excited. I'm excited to hear Chris and Joe and

1252
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:52,440
Speaker 1: Steve on the call.

1253
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 6: They're great. And speaking of Joe Thomas and Chris Rose.

1254
00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:58,760
Speaker 3: By the way, the Cleveland Browns playing host to the

1255
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:02,720
Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bank who are a six point favorite. The Cleveland

1256
00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:06,440
Speaker 3: Browns get back in a great work in the Player's Tribune.

1257
00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:11,000
Speaker 3: Nick Chubb saying he has unfinished business in Cleveland, feels

1258
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:11,920
Speaker 3: he owes it to the city.

1259
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:15,240
Speaker 6: I think maybe the city might ow link Chubb a

1260
00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 6: little bit. It's a it's a rough spot.

1261
00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 3: They just trade Amari Cooper, They're still starting Deshaun Watson,

1262
00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:26,120
Speaker 3: Greg Cincinnati's defense lu and Romo Squat looked a lot

1263
00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 3: better against Dimes.

1264
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:30,000
Speaker 6: How does how does Cleveland score points here?

1265
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 2: That Nick Chubb just does something?

1266
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,479
Speaker 6: I hope it does. That's just I hope so like the.

1267
00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 1: Football gods giving us and him and Browns fans something to.

1268
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:45,680
Speaker 2: Hold on to, something to cheer about.

1269
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:49,160
Speaker 1: I'm glad you pointed out that article, which I read.

1270
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 1: It was getting a little misty at the breakfast table

1271
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:56,280
Speaker 1: here at my house. How how cool for in an

1272
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 1: organ and the fans don't deserve what's happened during this

1273
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:02,840
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson era. No, and Nick Chubb certainly doesn't deserve

1274
01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 1: to be playing on an offense this putrid where Deshaun

1275
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:11,120
Speaker 1: Watson has taken in terms of sacks thirty one sacks

1276
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 1: this year, the worst EPA on sacks through six weeks

1277
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:18,560
Speaker 1: since twenty sixteen. So they are just losing. He's just

1278
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 1: putting them in such a bad spot. And part of

1279
01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:23,200
Speaker 1: that is absolutely the offensive line. More of it, I believe,

1280
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:26,560
Speaker 1: is Watson and the Bengals coming off their best game

1281
01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 1: of the year where maybe Hubbard is healthy again and

1282
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 1: they just looked a little more dynamic.

1283
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 2: They're certainly healthier again.

1284
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 1: You wouldn't think that the Browns offense is going to

1285
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:38,080
Speaker 1: get anything done, But reading that article just made me

1286
01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:42,920
Speaker 1: root for like a magical Nick Chubb game and him

1287
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 1: just doing something crazy, and that's unfair to expect, but

1288
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:48,400
Speaker 1: who knows. The matchup is not a bad one against

1289
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,520
Speaker 1: the Bengals in general that maybe you can return to

1290
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 1: what made this Browns team great under Kevin Stefanski offensively,

1291
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:55,840
Speaker 1: which was running the ball.

1292
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, two of the best pass rushers in the game

1293
01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:00,640
Speaker 3: in terms of pressure share, Miles Garrett thirty one point

1294
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:04,040
Speaker 3: three percent. Hendrickson Trey Hendrickson is actually a thirty one

1295
01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:08,520
Speaker 3: point eight percent as well. And you know between Miles

1296
01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 3: and Nick Chubb. Yeah, Brown Browns offense, please get it

1297
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:12,240
Speaker 3: figured out.

1298
01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:15,919
Speaker 1: I will say the Browns have owned this rivalry. Yeah,

1299
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,280
Speaker 1: owned it in the Zach Taylor era. Even last year.

1300
01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:21,760
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure the Bengals did get them back in

1301
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:24,200
Speaker 1: the in the rematch if I'm remembering right.

1302
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:26,120
Speaker 2: I should not just count of my memory.

1303
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,120
Speaker 1: But I remember the Monday Night game where the Bengals

1304
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:31,360
Speaker 1: were rolling coming into that and the Browns just absolutely

1305
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 1: stomped him a year ago. And there is something to

1306
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 1: say about that that when you have the same coaches

1307
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:37,680
Speaker 1: and they're matching up over and over and you keep

1308
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 1: getting similar results, it is a rare case where past

1309
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:44,680
Speaker 1: results can indicate, you know, future results. And so I

1310
01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:46,800
Speaker 1: think the Browns probably feel a little more comfortable in

1311
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:49,360
Speaker 1: this matchup than they should. Six points, you know, for

1312
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 1: a Bengals team that's two and four is a lot

1313
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 1: against a pretty good defense that the Browns can throw

1314
01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:56,440
Speaker 1: out there coming off a good game, you know, against

1315
01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:56,920
Speaker 1: the Eagles.

1316
01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:01,360
Speaker 3: The one spot though, where Jim Jim's defense is it

1317
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:04,400
Speaker 3: feels a little bit different, is all of these explosive

1318
01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:09,480
Speaker 3: plays they've They've allowed the sixth highest rate of explosives

1319
01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:12,560
Speaker 3: on the ground, the third most yards due to misstackles.

1320
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,640
Speaker 3: And so in comes Jamar Chase, who in the past

1321
01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 3: four weeks is, Oh, yeah, that's that's still Jamar Chase.

1322
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:19,480
Speaker 6: It's still Joe Burrow.

1323
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:22,720
Speaker 3: And in the Bengals offense, we don't have any problems

1324
01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:26,680
Speaker 3: with It's it's really the defense and looking over did

1325
01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:30,200
Speaker 3: they get things figured out? I I'm looking for a reason,

1326
01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:32,360
Speaker 3: and the only the only thing I can hang my

1327
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 3: hat on is Nick Chubb has a has a crazy

1328
01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:39,440
Speaker 3: emotional game. Everybody's going nuts at the dog pound there

1329
01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:42,200
Speaker 3: and Miles Garrett blocks a couple of field goals or something.

1330
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:44,920
Speaker 6: I don't know. It's it's tough to see anything else.

1331
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 1: By the way, my mind is so stuck in jet

1332
01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 1: lag that I was thinking of a Monday and I

1333
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:53,040
Speaker 1: gave him two years ago. Did that big game exists

1334
01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:57,120
Speaker 1: last year? Although they did split the two matchups, including

1335
01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:00,439
Speaker 1: I remember just an ugly performance by Burrow in Week

1336
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:02,760
Speaker 1: one a year ago twenty three.

1337
01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:06,000
Speaker 3: The years, the years combined, but it's it's all within

1338
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:09,240
Speaker 3: the beautiful mind of one Greg Wild. Now, the Las

1339
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:12,080
Speaker 3: Vegas Raiders making a trip to their former home to

1340
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:14,800
Speaker 3: take on the Los Angeles Rams, who are a seven

1341
01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:18,920
Speaker 3: point favorite. Kevin Harlan, Trent Green, and Melanie Collins on

1342
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:21,560
Speaker 3: the call, The over under is forty three and a half.

1343
01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:24,440
Speaker 6: Greg, it is basically the.

1344
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,800
Speaker 3: Entire plane has been constructed out of rock bowers at

1345
01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:30,640
Speaker 3: this point, with AOC throwing passes in the Rams coming

1346
01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:31,200
Speaker 3: off of bye.

1347
01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:33,080
Speaker 6: The bye is why they're favored by seven.

1348
01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:36,880
Speaker 1: Right, That is so disheartening if you're a Raiders fan

1349
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:40,800
Speaker 1: or new owner like Tom Brady, You're a seven point

1350
01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:46,160
Speaker 1: underdog against a Rams team that's won one game, and

1351
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 1: that that is like, it's not like it was a

1352
01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:50,480
Speaker 1: fun game though, Greg, it was, and they've been competitive

1353
01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:54,160
Speaker 1: in others and they have a top ten quarterback in

1354
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:57,240
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, so it is not a normal team that

1355
01:03:57,320 --> 01:04:02,080
Speaker 1: has only won one game. But that is absolutely brutal.

1356
01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:04,240
Speaker 1: We don't know if Cooper Cup is gonna play in

1357
01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:06,840
Speaker 1: this game. I heard Monday was an important day for him,

1358
01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:08,960
Speaker 1: but I don't know how much he really works, So

1359
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:11,920
Speaker 1: my guess would be it might be a little longer

1360
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:14,080
Speaker 1: before we see him, and certainly Pukinakua is not going

1361
01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,680
Speaker 1: to be back for this game yet. And it's a

1362
01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:18,760
Speaker 1: big game because the Rams don't have many games on

1363
01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:21,280
Speaker 1: the schedule where they like should win and if they're

1364
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:22,240
Speaker 1: going to get back into the mix.

1365
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:23,920
Speaker 2: They were three and six last year before they made

1366
01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 2: the playoffs.

1367
01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:26,440
Speaker 3: This is a game year we're going, Yeah, they go

1368
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,040
Speaker 3: on a run here and I'm I'm excited for Jared

1369
01:04:29,120 --> 01:04:30,960
Speaker 3: Verse and this one. I know Colton Miller has been

1370
01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:34,720
Speaker 3: playing well at tackle, but now he's in an absolute

1371
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:38,280
Speaker 3: impossible spot because a fun aid and O'Connell fact, he

1372
01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:42,120
Speaker 3: has not attempted a single scramble rush on any of

1373
01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 3: his four hundred and forty two dropbacks since entering the NFL.

1374
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:48,920
Speaker 2: Greg That is crazy. Not a quick not a quick mover.

1375
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 6: He's literally not.

1376
01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:53,680
Speaker 3: It's like while we critique a forty year old playing

1377
01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:55,920
Speaker 3: in New York for not getting away from se A

1378
01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:57,480
Speaker 3: and O'Connell is not running.

1379
01:04:57,600 --> 01:04:59,040
Speaker 6: He is not going to leave.

1380
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,720
Speaker 3: I'm thinking about this Rams defensive line and the way

1381
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,200
Speaker 3: that they've been able to get pressure this season, especially

1382
01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:08,400
Speaker 3: Jared verse. I think it's gonna be tough. I'm I'm

1383
01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:11,720
Speaker 3: going I'm going more than seven. Wow, particular pick, I

1384
01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:14,760
Speaker 3: just don't have the confidence because I think the world

1385
01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:17,040
Speaker 3: of Rock powers and I love the way that they've

1386
01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:19,600
Speaker 3: had him out there essentially playing wide receiver because he

1387
01:05:19,640 --> 01:05:21,320
Speaker 3: can do that wide receiver, tight end.

1388
01:05:21,360 --> 01:05:22,600
Speaker 6: He's that good of a football player.

1389
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:25,120
Speaker 3: But to have a team on his back in this

1390
01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:26,959
Speaker 3: particular situation, I just don't believe.

1391
01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:30,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jackson powers. Johnson is a rookie offensive lineman for

1392
01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:32,040
Speaker 1: them has been struggling. So I think they thought their

1393
01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:33,919
Speaker 1: offensive line was going to be a strength, and it's

1394
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,040
Speaker 1: it's been up and down. They certainly haven't been able

1395
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:39,960
Speaker 1: to run the ball consistently enough. It was interesting to

1396
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:44,240
Speaker 1: me Mark Davis tried to squash the Max Crosby rumors.

1397
01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:47,120
Speaker 1: And there have been rumors. I'm just saying, like in

1398
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,240
Speaker 1: the little you know, like the text and whatnot.

1399
01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:50,880
Speaker 6: Like the GM.

1400
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:53,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I don't know about the GM group chat,

1401
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:55,000
Speaker 1: but I think people have been calling and maybe not

1402
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, been wondering whether Max Crosby would be available

1403
01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:01,880
Speaker 1: or not, and maybe not get getting clear answers about that.

1404
01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:05,320
Speaker 1: Mark Davis seemed to squash that at the owners meeting,

1405
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:09,920
Speaker 1: and he better because if you're trading Max Crosby, I

1406
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:13,120
Speaker 1: just think you're gonna lose, Like, who are you? You're

1407
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:14,919
Speaker 1: gonna lose the fans that you have.

1408
01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:17,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the point in player acquisition? You want to

1409
01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:19,320
Speaker 3: get something that nobody else has and then you want

1410
01:06:19,320 --> 01:06:21,080
Speaker 3: to keep that thing. The thing that they need to

1411
01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:25,320
Speaker 3: avoid is maybe have nobody ask Max Crosby about this

1412
01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:27,960
Speaker 3: while he's frustrated. You don't want to end up with

1413
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:32,000
Speaker 3: another trade request. Yeah, just kind of trying to facilitate,

1414
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:36,080
Speaker 3: make everything as comfortable as possible, but also win games. Yes,

1415
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:38,360
Speaker 3: I know Max doesn't want to be out there playing

1416
01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:40,880
Speaker 3: every single play, playing through the things that he's had

1417
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:41,439
Speaker 3: to play through.

1418
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:43,480
Speaker 6: While they're consistently bad.

1419
01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:46,200
Speaker 1: It's a winnable game for them, even though the Rams

1420
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 1: are seven point favorites. Maybe this is the game I

1421
01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,640
Speaker 1: should have tried to take my family too, But it's

1422
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:54,360
Speaker 1: on a Sunday. It's kind of tricky with taping NFL daily,

1423
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:58,200
Speaker 1: So we are making it to the Thursday night Vikings

1424
01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 1: Rams game. We're gonna take one quick break and then

1425
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:04,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna wrap up with the last few games.

1426
01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:05,840
Speaker 2: Here on our Week seven.

1427
01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:23,360
Speaker 1: Back on NFL Daily, and yeah, we haven't made a

1428
01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:25,920
Speaker 1: survivor pick this week, so we've only got a couple

1429
01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:28,480
Speaker 1: games left with which they choose.

1430
01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:32,480
Speaker 3: I guess when we finish one of the Presco everybody listening,

1431
01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:35,760
Speaker 3: we'll know the results and how that turns out. Let's

1432
01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:40,960
Speaker 3: find out Carolina at Washington, who is an eight point

1433
01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:43,640
Speaker 3: home favorite where the folks believe and they should the

1434
01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:45,760
Speaker 3: over under fifty one and a half. You should also

1435
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,880
Speaker 3: believe in that grit because Jayden Daniels in this offense

1436
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:53,280
Speaker 3: is roaring the defense. We'll see, we'll probably get a

1437
01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 3: good litmus test with just Andy Dalton, who is the

1438
01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 3: litmus test again fifty one and a half Ian Eagle,

1439
01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:09,160
Speaker 3: Charles Davis Evan Washburn on the call. The Carolina Panthers

1440
01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:11,840
Speaker 3: were in that game against the Atlanta Falcons. Both of

1441
01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:15,880
Speaker 3: these teams had losses last week, but the vibe advantage

1442
01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:18,679
Speaker 3: obviously going by way of our nations CAUP.

1443
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:23,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, when you're the Commanders and you're playing

1444
01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 1: a dead on arrival Panthers team and you're still getting

1445
01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:29,800
Speaker 1: Charles Davis in the building, that shows that Jayde and

1446
01:08:29,880 --> 01:08:31,360
Speaker 1: Daniels has some.

1447
01:08:31,840 --> 01:08:32,640
Speaker 2: Star power here.

1448
01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:35,160
Speaker 1: It's true, like that's the number two CBS crew and

1449
01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:38,000
Speaker 1: basically everyone's in on watching jayde Daniels every week.

1450
01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:39,800
Speaker 2: It's the best show in the league.

1451
01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 1: He somehow I got played better against the Ravens than

1452
01:08:43,960 --> 01:08:46,479
Speaker 1: in some of his big splash games because they really

1453
01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:49,720
Speaker 1: forced him to win by going to his second read,

1454
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,519
Speaker 1: by having to stay in the pocket, and wasn't a

1455
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:56,559
Speaker 1: huge factor on the ground, wasn't necessarily hitting those big

1456
01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:58,919
Speaker 1: plays down the field, and yet he was extremely efficient

1457
01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:01,960
Speaker 1: and effective. And the Panthers are that defense week after

1458
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,760
Speaker 1: week that you're like, is this running game actually good

1459
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:08,840
Speaker 1: or did they just play the Panthers? And so, yeah,

1460
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:11,200
Speaker 1: you figure they could put up forty spot here in

1461
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 1: this one.

1462
01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:16,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, confident there j C. Horn playing good football.

1463
01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:19,599
Speaker 3: I not enough to make me confident in the one

1464
01:09:19,640 --> 01:09:22,400
Speaker 3: in five Carolina Panthers. I do start to wonder, at

1465
01:09:22,400 --> 01:09:25,240
Speaker 3: what point does it become pointless and we don't just

1466
01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:28,679
Speaker 3: get Bryce back in to see how things are gonna look.

1467
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:31,800
Speaker 6: But I guess it's it's one of those things.

1468
01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:35,439
Speaker 3: And also an eye on Brian Robertson Junior, specifically for

1469
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,960
Speaker 3: fantasy purposes, because as you mentioned, this Carolina Panthers defense

1470
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:42,320
Speaker 3: has been amenable to opposing running backs and so if

1471
01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:45,639
Speaker 3: there's no Brian Robertson Jr. Could get maximum Austin Eckler,

1472
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:49,040
Speaker 3: who I think gives this offense a different dimension and

1473
01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:50,839
Speaker 3: it makes it it makes it kind of fun, especially

1474
01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:53,400
Speaker 3: with the way Jaden is playing kind of interesting. He

1475
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:58,040
Speaker 3: essentially becomes like a receiver to type volume there when

1476
01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:00,640
Speaker 3: he's when he's in the game. So, yeah, this one, this,

1477
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:02,639
Speaker 3: I mean, this is just all the rookie quarterback. It's

1478
01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:04,200
Speaker 3: tough to talk about anything.

1479
01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,400
Speaker 1: Well, and you can talk about Terry McLaurin, who is

1480
01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:10,439
Speaker 1: just has a different profile. Next ten Stats noted that

1481
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:12,360
Speaker 1: you know he's run a post, a corner, go or

1482
01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:14,640
Speaker 1: a wheel, which are the routes down the field of

1483
01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,720
Speaker 1: vertical routes on forty two percent of its route. So

1484
01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:20,920
Speaker 1: it's like he's going deep down the field more often

1485
01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:23,320
Speaker 1: than he has since he was a rookie, when it

1486
01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:25,240
Speaker 1: was just kind of bombs away to Terry. Do you

1487
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:29,360
Speaker 1: wouldn't think the Panthers are really going to have many answers,

1488
01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:32,920
Speaker 1: And yeah, they're this weird spot where Andy Dalton made

1489
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:35,880
Speaker 1: them significantly better and he continues to play at a

1490
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:38,360
Speaker 1: fairly high level week after week. But it's also like,

1491
01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,880
Speaker 1: what is the point of this entire franchise right now?

1492
01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:44,240
Speaker 3: He's gotten them so much better that they've climbed all

1493
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 3: the way up to dead last and point differentially where

1494
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:48,519
Speaker 3: they are negative one hundred.

1495
01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:52,360
Speaker 1: Well, this was by design. They spent all their money

1496
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:54,479
Speaker 1: on offense this offseason. They got rid of all their

1497
01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:59,160
Speaker 1: good defensive players. They also had a couple injuries on defense,

1498
01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:01,360
Speaker 1: but they basically decided we're going to be bad on

1499
01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:04,559
Speaker 1: defense to try to help evaluate Bryce Young. But then

1500
01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:07,040
Speaker 1: he only lasted two games before they made their evaluation.

1501
01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:09,840
Speaker 1: And now they're just with this like twenty second in

1502
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,479
Speaker 1: the league offense and one of the worst defenses. It's

1503
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:16,040
Speaker 1: just it's tough, But these are the types of games Washington.

1504
01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:19,400
Speaker 1: Everything is first for them. They have to prove as

1505
01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:21,599
Speaker 1: they get through the season like that they can keep

1506
01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:24,719
Speaker 1: passing these sort of tests, and if they do, they're

1507
01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:26,759
Speaker 1: the favorites to win the division, which is wild.

1508
01:11:26,760 --> 01:11:29,360
Speaker 3: And they'll get to that Cliff Kingsbury week seven to

1509
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:33,040
Speaker 3: eight to nine type fall off where people are going

1510
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:36,280
Speaker 3: to be charting that and I'm people in that leading

1511
01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,519
Speaker 3: us to our final game, the Tennessee Titans at the

1512
01:11:39,560 --> 01:11:43,320
Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills, who are a nine point favorite. Nine also

1513
01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:46,000
Speaker 3: coincidentally the jersey number of one Amari Cooper when he

1514
01:11:46,040 --> 01:11:48,400
Speaker 3: played his college football at the University of Alabama. He

1515
01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:51,880
Speaker 3: is now a Buffalo Bill. The over under forty one.

1516
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:55,719
Speaker 3: Andrew Catalan, Tiki Barber, and Jason mccordy on the call

1517
01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:59,320
Speaker 3: the Tennessee Titans shout off to Tony.

1518
01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:00,679
Speaker 6: Pollard, He's been good.

1519
01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:04,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're looking for good stuff anywhere else and it's

1520
01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:04,720
Speaker 3: hard to find it.

1521
01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:04,920
Speaker 6: Great.

1522
01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:05,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not there.

1523
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:10,000
Speaker 1: In the passing game, Brian Callahan just seems so frustrated

1524
01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:14,479
Speaker 1: with Will Levis. You do wonder when Mason Rudolph is

1525
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:17,080
Speaker 1: gonna come into the mix. I think it's gonna happen

1526
01:12:17,120 --> 01:12:20,439
Speaker 1: at some point. Calvin Ridley's upset DeAndre Hopkins would be

1527
01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 1: an interesting trade candidate potentially for the team. The defense

1528
01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:26,840
Speaker 1: has been disappointing that at least in terms of their

1529
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:30,000
Speaker 1: pass defense the last couple of weeks, like just not

1530
01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:33,679
Speaker 1: bigger than the summer of their parts the Titans defense.

1531
01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,320
Speaker 1: And so you play a Bill's offense that Daddy and

1532
01:12:36,360 --> 01:12:38,680
Speaker 1: Murray Cooper kind of solves their one issue that they have,

1533
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:41,000
Speaker 1: but it was a dynamic Bill's offense to begin with.

1534
01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:43,320
Speaker 1: I think they're one of the few teams that can

1535
01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:47,120
Speaker 1: actually line up against Tennessee just kind of man for man,

1536
01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:50,400
Speaker 1: add that sixth offensive lineman like they do, and still

1537
01:12:50,439 --> 01:12:52,400
Speaker 1: be able to do what they do, not get pushed

1538
01:12:52,400 --> 01:12:54,960
Speaker 1: around by Jeffrey Simmons in that front where the Titans

1539
01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:57,559
Speaker 1: are so good and still be able to run the

1540
01:12:57,600 --> 01:13:00,320
Speaker 1: ball when they need to. We'll see if James Cook

1541
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 1: is back for this game for the Bills.

1542
01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:06,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think Ray Davis added a dynamic type

1543
01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:09,400
Speaker 3: level to this Bill's offense. My question for Joe Brady

1544
01:13:09,560 --> 01:13:12,599
Speaker 3: was where did Ray Davis go Like in the middle

1545
01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:14,320
Speaker 3: of that game, they kind of went away from the

1546
01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:17,240
Speaker 3: run game after it was so dominant in the start.

1547
01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:19,599
Speaker 3: Eventually he gets back as a huge eight yard run

1548
01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:22,320
Speaker 3: in the third quarter to convert a crucial first down.

1549
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 3: But I'm watching just how well Greg Russo and aj

1550
01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:30,000
Speaker 3: Epanessa played against the Jets. And I know the Jets

1551
01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:34,240
Speaker 3: offensive line is nothing compared to the Tennessee Titans offensive line,

1552
01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 3: but we're still seeing Will Levis where Calvin Ridley is

1553
01:13:37,800 --> 01:13:39,880
Speaker 3: being used like as a deep threat, but then like

1554
01:13:40,800 --> 01:13:43,240
Speaker 3: it's kind of late garbage time situation.

1555
01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:44,680
Speaker 2: He's getting mad about it.

1556
01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:48,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's understandable, Like I'm glad that he cares, but

1557
01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:51,600
Speaker 3: it's just a very frustrating thing. It's hard for me

1558
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:54,439
Speaker 3: to consider a way that the Titans win this game,

1559
01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:56,880
Speaker 3: which is why I'm going into the jungle Gret.

1560
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:58,519
Speaker 6: Oh wow, okay, fishing for you.

1561
01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:03,240
Speaker 3: Yes that after a week off we make the Buffalo

1562
01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:04,280
Speaker 3: Bills are survival.

1563
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:08,440
Speaker 1: It's the sloppiest segment known to man. At first we lost, initially,

1564
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:11,559
Speaker 1: we came back. Yeah, I don't know. I was in

1565
01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:14,439
Speaker 1: the UK and it just slipped my mind. But yes,

1566
01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:18,680
Speaker 1: I'm all in on the Bills in this game. It's

1567
01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:21,599
Speaker 1: a week where yeah, they're missing von Miller while he's

1568
01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:25,360
Speaker 1: on suspension, and they've had some injuries there see about

1569
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:28,600
Speaker 1: Ed Oliver. But they can get it done against this

1570
01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:29,880
Speaker 1: offensive winning My.

1571
01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:30,760
Speaker 6: Only kids at my guard.

1572
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:34,560
Speaker 3: My big season long concern for the Bills is athleticism

1573
01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:38,439
Speaker 3: in the secondary. I feel like that there was kind

1574
01:14:38,439 --> 01:14:40,759
Speaker 3: of an opportunity for them to get exposed, like especially

1575
01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:43,280
Speaker 3: with Garrett Wilson, Like their their ability to deal with

1576
01:14:43,320 --> 01:14:46,599
Speaker 3: wide receiver ones when the quarterback is protected. I'm concerned

1577
01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:49,240
Speaker 3: about that, but I do like Amari helps the offense

1578
01:14:49,360 --> 01:14:52,120
Speaker 3: because like when you're relying on you know, shout out

1579
01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,240
Speaker 3: to all of mccollins production, right, but mc collins the

1580
01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:58,880
Speaker 3: win at the lone of scrimmage, adding adding Amory really helps.

1581
01:14:58,920 --> 01:14:59,040
Speaker 5: Well.

1582
01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:02,120
Speaker 1: How about Tarron Johnson coming back and that matters a lot.

1583
01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:04,240
Speaker 1: And then one thing I thought was interesting was Taylor

1584
01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:06,240
Speaker 1: Rapp had a couple of big time hits in that

1585
01:15:06,280 --> 01:15:09,280
Speaker 1: game coming back from a concussion, and he was wearing

1586
01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:12,400
Speaker 1: the Guardian cap because he came back very soon after

1587
01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:15,639
Speaker 1: the concussion. And one of those hits which has potentially

1588
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:18,360
Speaker 1: won the game for them, Yeah, the one I couldn't

1589
01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:20,639
Speaker 1: help but think like he could have had a concussion

1590
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:22,880
Speaker 1: on that play, but he was wearing the Guardian cap,

1591
01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:23,280
Speaker 1: and it does.

1592
01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:25,320
Speaker 2: It's all just making me wonder like.

1593
01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:29,599
Speaker 1: If we're if we're if we actually care, we don't

1594
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:31,920
Speaker 1: really care that much about concussions, because then you just

1595
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:33,320
Speaker 1: everyone would just wear the guarding cap.

1596
01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:36,040
Speaker 2: It's a weird way to end the show, but it's.

1597
01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:38,080
Speaker 1: Just like Taylor rap Is like, now I actually do

1598
01:15:38,160 --> 01:15:40,040
Speaker 1: want to protect my head, so I'm gonna wear it,

1599
01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:43,839
Speaker 1: and and it does because I'm coming off of a concussion.

1600
01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:45,880
Speaker 1: So it's just it's just something to think long term

1601
01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:47,720
Speaker 1: that I think eventually everyone's going to be wearing these

1602
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:49,800
Speaker 1: things and we're in this weird in between that I'm

1603
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,120
Speaker 1: very conscious of that it's in the in between.

1604
01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:53,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's all.

1605
01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:55,559
Speaker 3: Hopefully we'll get data back and says that you know

1606
01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:58,599
Speaker 3: that this does and help. But I don't think it's

1607
01:15:58,640 --> 01:16:01,439
Speaker 3: a weird way to end the show because like these

1608
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:02,639
Speaker 3: these guys, it.

1609
01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:05,240
Speaker 1: Really struck me with It really struck me with Taylor

1610
01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:07,280
Speaker 1: Rapp last week, and it's on my mind too. A

1611
01:16:07,320 --> 01:16:08,720
Speaker 1: two A tongue bye was going to be coming back.

1612
01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:11,040
Speaker 1: I'm curious he'll be wearing it. I wouldn't be surprised

1613
01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:14,439
Speaker 1: if he was. And yes, Amari Cooper's debut with the Bills.

1614
01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,840
Speaker 1: Patrick doesn't like this kind of analysis, but I actually

1615
01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:20,519
Speaker 1: think maybe Amari Cooper will be trying just like a

1616
01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:22,200
Speaker 1: little bit harder this week now that he's on a

1617
01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:24,880
Speaker 1: good team where a quarterback can actually feed him the

1618
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:25,840
Speaker 1: ball in the right spot.

1619
01:16:26,160 --> 01:16:28,639
Speaker 6: The second party, second part, we agree.

1620
01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:32,960
