1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: And now Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. 2 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,640 Speaker 1: Everybody welcome to Move the Six presented by the FOURD Series, DJ, 3 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: Bucky Here and Buck Man. We've got we've got holidays 4 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: coming up, but we've got a lot of good football 5 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: before we get to those holidays, a lot of good football. 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: We go talk about it. Oh, I'm excited about today's 7 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: show because I get to talk about Zeki Ellett in 8 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, what his return means. Play we can 9 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: talk about the playoffs, preview in Week sixteen games, how 10 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: to impacts the playoffs and more likely Rams or Jags 11 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. Yeah, that's what I'm looking forward 12 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: to because those are two tremendous turnarounds. But can they 13 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: get all the way to the finish line. We'll have 14 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 1: that debate a little bit later on in the show. 15 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 1: We've got the Move the Six audio pod. You can 16 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: catch that on Sunday nights. Monday mornings. You also have 17 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,919 Speaker 1: the Tuesday Show, and this is the Thursday Show, which 18 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 1: is also on video, So if you're listening to this, 19 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: be sure to check out the video on NFL dot 20 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 1: com slash MTS video. Let's jump right in though here 21 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: Buck because the big news. I think one of the 22 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: big stories is Zeke Elliott coming back off that six 23 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: game suspension. Hasn't played since Week nine against Kansas City Chiefs. 24 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: So expectations for Ezeky Elliott in this game against the 25 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks, what he got well, I think he's going 26 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: to be at an A plus love when he comes back. 27 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: I think this is a personal game, as a game 28 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: where they understand they must win, gives him opportunity to 29 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 1: get back in the playoff, and they win their next 30 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: two games, they really have a very very good shot 31 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 1: of getting in. I think the big thing for the 32 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys it allows them to get back to being the 33 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,199 Speaker 1: dominant offense that they were a season ago, even though 34 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,839 Speaker 1: early they got off to a rough start. Zekiel Elliott 35 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,119 Speaker 1: wasn't in shape. I'm looking at the guy that has 36 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: seven hundred and eighty three yards, but now looking at 37 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 1: the picture that we saw with him working on in Cabo, 38 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: he comes back looking like the guy that we expected 39 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: him to be this year, and it helps them re 40 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: established the pecking order of their offense. I think without 41 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: him being on the field, we now understand that dek 42 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 1: Prescott needs some help. Das Brian and Jason Winton are 43 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: also different. When he's not there, you put Zekiel Elliott 44 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: back in the mix, everything becomes easier for everybody else. 45 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: I think we see a vintage Dallas Cowboy offense performance. Well, 46 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: we both love nineties music and so I think you 47 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 1: can agree that TLCS creep is a class And that 48 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: is the effect you have with Ezeki Ellett. Because those 49 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: safeties buck, they gotta creep, they gotta come down the 50 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: line of scream. You gotta drop one safety down there. 51 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: You're gonna see everything get kind of muddy in there 52 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: to try and slow down his Zekee Elliott, and it's 53 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: gonna make life a whole lot easier for Dak Prescott 54 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: want to push the ball down the field, it will 55 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,839 Speaker 1: it will absolutely open up things in the passing game 56 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: because this season we've seen Daz Bryant can't create separation, 57 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: Jason winning his near backs out of his career, he 58 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: can't create separation. The thing that has allowed those days 59 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 1: to really separate Ezekie Ellott in the backfield changed the 60 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 1: way the defense has to line up and play against him. 61 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: So when you put twenty one back in the backfield. 62 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 1: I think you will see these guys have more room, 63 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: more space, more production in the passing game, and that 64 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: will ultimately help number four Dak Prescott played better. Yeah, 65 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: I talk about the safety is coming down. Also, it's 66 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: gonna set up a lot of the boot play action 67 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: stuff that Dak excels that also get him on the 68 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: perimeter some he will have some opportunities to even run. 69 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: You have some nakeds and some keeps off of Ezeki Elliott. 70 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: So it is a massive impact on this offense and 71 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: one of the reasons I think that Dallas Cowboys are 72 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: a scary team if they somehow get into the postseason. 73 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: All r let's flip it over to the to the 74 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: Seahawks here and what they need to do to rebound 75 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: after tough loss loss last week to beat these Dallas Cowboys. 76 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: And I'll lead it off here. Buck to me, Russell 77 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: Wilson has he's got to have a cape. He's got 78 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: to be superman if they're gonna win this ballgame. That 79 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: when when they win, it's because he's doing just ridiculous things. 80 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: And you can see, let's see what's put a cape 81 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 1: on a cape on Russell Wilson because that's he's got 82 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: to be Superman for them to win football games with 83 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: what's around him, especially up front on the offensive line, 84 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: and now with their defense struggling, he has to do 85 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: superhero things as you're seeing him do here against the 86 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: forty niners on this clip, Buck, he has to have 87 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: the cape. He better pack the cape if they're gonna 88 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: go win this football game against the Dallas Cowboys. I mean, 89 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: it's crazy. He's accounting for their scrimmage jars. He's doing 90 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: it all. He's a one man show. He's having to 91 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: do more than any other quarterback in the National Football League. 92 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: And when you look at this team, a team that 93 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: has really beaten down, he is going to have to 94 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: even take his game up a notch to give them 95 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,839 Speaker 1: any hope of clinching that last postseason birth. But really, 96 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: when I look at it, this Seahawks team was never 97 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: supposed to be old Buck. Appreciate the cape. I mean 98 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: I like the cap. No, I want you to love that. 99 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: I want you to love the cape like I love 100 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,799 Speaker 1: how cool that look. It's floating, it's flying the breeze 101 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 1: as he takes off the run. The animation has been great. 102 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: The graphics are terrific on it. They even made it 103 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: match with his body. I mean, I give you a 104 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: great job. I mean that's an A plus, A nice job, boys, 105 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: A plus effort. But the A plus effort for the 106 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: cl Chawks needs to come from their defense, because that's 107 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: just part of the team that should be carrying the wait. 108 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: This is a team that was built around their defense. 109 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: The offense is more the complementary port. And what I 110 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: need to see from the Seahawks they gotta play big 111 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: boy football. I mean I need to see them up front, 112 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: that front seven. They're gonna have to play big boy 113 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: football against a massive offensive line from the Dallas Cowboys 114 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: and a terrific runner in Ezekie Elliott. And too many 115 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: times this year we've seen that occur, guys running right 116 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: down the heart of the defense, taking into distance. We've 117 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: seen them give up more yards, more big plays than 118 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: they ever have. I need to see Scholdon Richardson. I 119 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: need to see Michael Bennett. I need to see kJ Wright. 120 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: I need to see Boby Wagner. I see need to 121 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: see those guys step up, because if they don't step up, 122 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: Dallas is going to run them out the build. I've 123 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: been around coaches. Defensive coaches always harp on the fact 124 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 1: they let's not reaching, grab, let's square somebody up your 125 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: path on tech, a lot of reaching and grab. When 126 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: you watch the Seahawks defense, who wins the game? Dallas? 127 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: I think Dallas is the better team. Dallas is ready 128 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: to go. Zeki Ellie comes back, gives this offensive Joe. 129 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: I think we're going to see Dallas play their best 130 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: football the last couple of games. Yeah, that's some one. 131 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: I don't think it's very difficult. Again, Russell Wilson, the 132 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: bar is set so high for him for them to 133 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: get this done. I don't think they can do what. 134 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: I like the Dallas Cowboys as well, although the Dallas 135 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: Cowboys are gonna little help if they're gonna get into 136 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: the postseason. Let's look at some of the big time games. 137 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: We've got Falcons and Saints. That's a one Eastern game 138 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: on Fox. Give me a player to watching this one. 139 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 1: It's all about Devantay Freeman. Devanta Freeman is the guy 140 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: that you have to watch for the Atlanta Falcons because 141 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 1: they need to establish their running game and he is 142 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: a one man wrecking crew when it comes to the 143 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: run game and even being a factor in the past 144 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: game when I look at him over a hundred yards rushing, 145 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: but it's not that. It's also his ability to make 146 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: plays out the backfield. They're going to need him to 147 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: be the hybrid playmaker that can create offense and opportunities 148 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: for Matt Ryan. He alleviates the load on Matt Ryan. 149 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: I need to see him have a big game because 150 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: it's going to be necessary to slow down a New 151 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: Orleans Saints team that is rolled. Well. We know the 152 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: Falcons are gonna come to town one of the best 153 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: wide receivers in the NFL. So when I look on 154 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: the other side, I think Marshawn Lattimore, the rookie corner 155 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: for the Saints who has been outstanding, just named to 156 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. We'll get to some of these other 157 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: rookies that were named to the Pro Bowl and just 158 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 1: a little bit later on in the show. But to me, 159 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: he is key in this one. Keep the ball in 160 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: front of you, make plays on the football. His tackling 161 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: is gonna be big in this one. You gotta be 162 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: able to get some big, physical wide receivers, namely Julio 163 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: Jones on the ground. So need a big game from 164 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: Marshawn Latimore if they're gonna get this done. But so far, 165 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: the rookie has been outstanding. I mean, the Rickie class 166 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: has been outstanding. They did knocked at out of park 167 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: on the draft, and we talked about it on draft. 168 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: They they they did a great job bringing in blue chip 169 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: talents and these guys have performed, uh probably exceeded expectations 170 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: in someving. Marshall Atlantimore has been the natural shutdown corner 171 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: to everyone thought that he would be. Now you get 172 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: them in the mix, you get them in contention. They're 173 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: having to play their best ball down the stretch. I 174 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: think the rookies are the ones that end up carrying 175 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: the Saints. That's why I've seen go in Wow, you're 176 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: going with the Saints here at home. I guess that's 177 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: not much of a surprise. I think I'm probably the 178 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: one going out to limb here. I'm gonna take the 179 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons. Gotta have it. They gotta have this game. 180 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,559 Speaker 1: It's a tough place to go play. I think Matt 181 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: Ryan has a big game that's gonna be yea many 182 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: Maddie Ice, Mattie Ice, everything you know, Gus M v P. 183 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: Last year. He's got it in him. He just needs 184 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: to be a little more consistent. I think him and 185 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: Steve Sarkisian get on the same page. Bills Patriots obviously 186 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: a very big game for the Bills trying to keep 187 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: their hopes alive, the Patriots trying to hold on the seating. Here. 188 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: You got the Jacksonville Jaguars right behind them, so they 189 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: can't afford to slip up here. Who's the player to 190 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: watch the player? Everyone is watching Mr Davis White, And 191 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: obviously everyone is watching him because the incident did occurred 192 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: with Rob Bronkowski taking a shot at him, a cheap 193 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: shot after the play that might be the cheapest shot 194 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,679 Speaker 1: of anybody. I mean absolutely, it's it's it's a cheap shot. 195 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 1: It was unnecessary, and look, this is one of the guys. 196 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: I understand that Marshaw and Lattimore made the Pro Bowl, 197 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: but you can make the argument that your Davis White 198 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: is equally deserving to be in a Pro Bowl. Player 199 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: only player in the NFL with two plus FuMB recoveries, 200 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: eighteen plus passes defense, four plus interceptions, he deserves more credit. Unfortunately, 201 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: all of the attention is going to be on him 202 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: because of just one on one incident. But I'm gonna 203 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: say he's gonna take his game up a notch. He's 204 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: gonna find a way to make life difficult for Tom Brady. 205 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: Remember him coming out and we talked about I thought 206 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: he was one of the safer players and a four 207 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: year player at l s U graduate, you knew exactly 208 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: what you were buying with your Davious White. He's been 209 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: outstanding to me, though, the player to watch Brandon Cooks 210 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: because I'd like to see what happens in a situation 211 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: where you get a Brandon Cooks, honest your Davious White 212 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: and see if he can stretch him vertically a little bit. 213 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: I think the Patriots have to take some shots down 214 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: the field in this game, and Brandon Cooks will be 215 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: the one to do it, so I'd be keeping my 216 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: eyes on him. This seems fairly obvious when you go 217 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: to pick this game, Buck, but why don't you tell 218 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: them who you got? If the game was in Buffalo, 219 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: I would maybe leaning towards the emotional pick. But right 220 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: now I'm gonnay to Newingland patries. Newingland patries understand what's 221 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: the stake they gotta get done. I think they're just 222 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: gonna take care of business. They're gonna deal with all 223 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: the fanfare and just really make it a fist fight 224 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:17,839 Speaker 1: in the street fight. And I just don't think the 225 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: Bills have enough to stack up Patriots. Yeah, I like 226 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 1: the Patriots for all the reasons you just said. No 227 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: reason to elaborate any more than that. Uh, Rams and Titans. Man, 228 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: this two teams head in the opposite direction. Rams coming 229 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: off a huge win in Seattle. The Tennessee Titans go 230 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: on the road and lose to the San Francisco forty Niners. 231 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: But both teams and that kind of gotta have it 232 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: mode as they're jockey and for position. Titans trying and 233 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: sneak in the playoffs, Rams fighting to get some home 234 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: field advantage. Here player to watch who is it? Sammy Watkins? 235 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: And I know it's tough to say Sammy Watkins is 236 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: gonna be the player to watch because when you look 237 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: at the Rams, they do a great job of distributing 238 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 1: ball to all their playmakers, and Sammy Watkins is the 239 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: fourth leading receiver on that team. However, I believe he 240 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 1: is their biggest X factor in the lineup. When I 241 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: look at his it's fifteen points, six yards for kids, 242 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 1: seven touchdowns. He is their big play receiver. So even 243 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: though they moved the sticks with Cooper Cup and Robert 244 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 1: Woods and Tigerlo plays in fact out the backfield when 245 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: they want to dowaload up, the big play is going 246 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: to number twelve. This is a game against the Tennessee 247 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: Titan team that may struggle scoring points. Look for Sean 248 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: McVeigh to be very aggressive early to see if you 249 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: can get number twelve behind a defense, put some early 250 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: points in the war and make them play catch up. No, 251 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: I think you will see them be aggressive. That's what 252 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,079 Speaker 1: McVeigh is all about here. To me, I look on 253 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: the other side with the Tennessee Titans, the run game, 254 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: the running backs to me have got to show up 255 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: and have a big day. De Marco Murray and Derrick Henry. 256 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: They've got to take some pressure off Marcus Mariota. Mario 257 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: was a little bit better last week against San Francisco. 258 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: But if they can be balanced, established that run early, 259 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: try and shorten the game. I don't think they're the 260 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: better team here. Anytime you can control the clock, control 261 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 1: the ground, I think, and not only does it benefit 262 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota, keep your defense fresh, all that good stuff. 263 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: I don't think you want to get in a situation 264 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: where you have a couple early three and ounced because 265 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 1: the Rams under McVeigh and try to knock you out, 266 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 1: they might tire you out in the first quarter, Sara 267 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: Mike Tyson is a first round knock at when you're 268 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 1: dealing with the Rams, first downs, control the clock. I 269 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: think that ground game is huge for the Titans if 270 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: they're gonna win this one. Who who do you like? Oh? 271 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: I'm going with the Rams. I think the Rams are 272 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: too good. I think the Rams are really positioned himself 273 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: well to make a legitimate Super Bowl run. This is 274 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: a team offensively that is a juggernaut, but defensively they're 275 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: beginning to get better. I think they overwhelmed the Tennessee Titans. 276 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: I thought the Rams last week kind of showed they 277 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: put their foot on the gas, and I don't think 278 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: they're gonna slow up. Oh no, no, no, So I 279 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: think it's all gas, no break. I like the Rams 280 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 1: to win as well. I don't think that's gonna be 281 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: particularly close either. Big You're gonna win, Big, Chargers, Jets, Chargers. Man, 282 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: it's a heartbreaking loss last weekend. The division the Jets. Look, 283 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: doesn't matter who's in, who's out. They are competitive every week. 284 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: They're gonna give you a ball game. Who's the player 285 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: to watch Antonio Gates. I'm anna dig deep in the session. 286 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: You can't see. I'm digging deep, deep, deep in the bag, 287 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: and I'm saying Antonio Gates has to throw out a 288 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: vintage performance right now. This is a team that comes 289 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: to the game without Hunter Henry. They're gonna need Gates 290 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: to play up. What does he run right now? We 291 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: put them on a stopwatch right now? Was he running? 292 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: I mean, he's always been a slower guy, maybe like 293 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: a five too right now. That's okay, it's not about you. 294 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: If you'd have said five flat, it's more savvy. It's 295 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 1: more savvy than anything. Look, he only has twenty receptions, 296 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: a hundred eighty nine receiving yards. He has two touchdowns. 297 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: I think in this game alone, he matches this season total. 298 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 1: He is going to have two touchdowns for the l 299 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: A Chargers. That's like the uncle that shows up at 300 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 1: the open gym. Yeah, that's who he is. Yeah, that's it. 301 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: I got next another the uncle on the other team. 302 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: I got a quick question for you, guys. Who wins 303 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: in a foot race? Gates or Witten? Hall of Fame? 304 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: I would pay to see it. I would. The good 305 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: thing is it could be a two day special because 306 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 1: that's how it would take for both of them to 307 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: finish both Hall of Famers, all time grades. And it 308 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: just shows we talked about it in the spring. We 309 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: get to the draft forty time for tight ends. Who cares? 310 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: It's a field position. It's it's no one has use 311 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: leverage and positioning and those guys are as good as 312 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: it gets, but they cannot run anymore. Um, okay, So 313 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: who do you like in this game? Actually gotta give 314 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: you my player to watch. I'm gonna Jamal Adams talk 315 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: about Antonio Gates. How would happen a safety that can 316 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 1: match up with him? There in Jamal Adams had a 317 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: good year. Look at this tweet. I love this. By 318 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: the way, I won't miss another Pro Bowl. Believe that 319 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: he did not make it as a rookie, but shows 320 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: you where his head is that and what his expectations 321 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: are for his level of play. I love that. And 322 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: this is a guy Bucky said he's the best player 323 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: in the draft. Last year, so I know you're you're 324 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 1: parcel to him as well. Had had a really really 325 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 1: good rookie year. Not the ball production that maybe you 326 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: would hope for, but as a tackler shows you the range. 327 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,599 Speaker 1: You know, just a very active player would be the 328 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: word I would use for Jamal Adams. I think the 329 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: big thing his president has been filled in the locker room. 330 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: The way this team is playing, I think is not 331 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: a coincidence that Jamal Adams has emerged as their young 332 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: leader on defense. He's a big time player. He's a 333 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: guy that loves ball all day, every day, and he's 334 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: gonna show up. This is going to be an interesting 335 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: matchup because he had the Pro Bowl snub, He's gonna 336 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: be at another level. He is going to be at 337 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: another level. It'd be interesting. Let's see if Antonio Gates, 338 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: maybe Deason with a little oh Man move get open. 339 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: But this is a tremendous matchup. Is one where I 340 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: think the Charges have to have it a little more 341 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: than the Jets. That is why I'm going to charges 342 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 1: in this one confidence meter from me zero. I'm taking 343 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: the Chargers, but this is confidence. I don't have confidence 344 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: in the Charges coming off last week. That was a 345 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: tough loss for them. I could see the Jets win 346 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:18,599 Speaker 1: in this game. I end up picking the Chargers, but 347 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: I think it goes either way. Steelers Texans, four thirty 348 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: Eastern on NBC. Uh, this is gonna be a nice 349 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: little early Christmas game here, Buck, What are you thinking 350 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: on this? One player to watch? Jujuice Smith Schuster. Judice 351 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: Smith Schuster has been a nice fine and discovery for 352 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers. He's really settled in well as the 353 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: role is kind of like that number two, number three 354 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: receiver for them. Has made a ton of plays um 355 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 1: and with Antonio Brown being out, he has to kind 356 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: of step up a notch. I'm looking at him averaging 357 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: sixteen point three yards for Kich he has five touchdowns. 358 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: Now when you have Schuster and Martavis Bryant on the outside, 359 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: which one of these guys can do a little more 360 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: lifting to replace Antonio Bryant's production. I believe Smith Schuster 361 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: is better for position because he's the underneath Rob running. 362 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: He's the physical presence, kind of like the Ankoin Bolden 363 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: of their offense. Look for Big Ben to target him 364 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: early and often. I think Smith Schuster has a big game. 365 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: That's a good one. I'm gonna go on the other 366 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: side of the ball and go with Jenevian Clowney, who 367 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: just got voted to the Pro Bowl second year in 368 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: a roy I believe. I think he was an All 369 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: Pro last year. He's been outstanding and he's like he's 370 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: right around nine ten sacks. But he is dominant in 371 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: the run game. So you got a chance to to 372 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: watch him play enjoy it against a very very good 373 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers offensive line because he can beat you with 374 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: power on the edge, you run right through your numbers. 375 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: He can also beat you outside with quickness. He's gotten 376 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: inside counter move and what he does in the past 377 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: game again, I think he's even better in the run game. 378 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: He's been outstanding, So he's my player to watch. I 379 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: don't know if it's gonna be enough, even he does 380 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: have a great game for them to get this done, 381 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: but he is a He's one of the most enjoyable 382 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: players to keep an eye on. Who do you like 383 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: in this one? Buck? I think Pittsburgh wins. I think 384 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: pis Pittsburgh finds a way to get it done. I 385 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: think they have too many weapons and also the quarterback 386 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: player from the Houston, Texas has not been good. You 387 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: think this is a get right game. I think that 388 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: still his defense gets right facing t J H, Tom Sabbage, 389 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: whoever they try to. Yeah, like I think this this 390 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh team will score some points in this one, and 391 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: I'm not confident the Texans can keep up. I'll go 392 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: with the Steelers as well. All Right, the games that 393 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: we didn't mention here, they get covered in the NFL. 394 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: Pick them, show Buck, Why don't you tell the folks 395 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 1: about where they can find NFL pick them? With all 396 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: the podcasts coming together, oh Man, Saturday, five a m. 397 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: Eight a m. Eastern NFL Network, check it out all 398 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: the podcast teams around the NFL. I know how much 399 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: you love doing game theory and money. That's my favorite 400 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 1: new podcast. I love the Numbers. And then d DFP 401 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: is our podcasting parent. I mean, they kind of gave birth. 402 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: Thus kind of gave birth, so we have a special 403 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: place for them. And then there's the around the NFL. 404 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: If you you don't have to taste, that's your Uh. 405 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: Let's jump into these rookies that made the Pro Bowl. 406 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: Touched on it a little bit earlier with Marshawn Lattimore. 407 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: You see the list here two Saints album, Camera and Lattimore, 408 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: and then you go to Kareem Hunt, who has been 409 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: outstanding ending for the Chiefs. And then on the special 410 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: team side, Budda Baker ended up getting a nod. So 411 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: not too shabby as a rookie to make the Pro Bowl. 412 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: So we touched a little bit about Lattimore. Just tell 413 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: me what you've seen from Camara and what he's done 414 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: and meant to this team. Camaro has been everything. Camaro 415 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 1: is their best offensive player. And I know people going 416 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: to laugh at that, but I think all you had 417 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: to do is look at when he didn't play a 418 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: few games ago how it impacted the offense. He is 419 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 1: a dynamic playmaker. He's one of these new school hybrid 420 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 1: players that can do it all as a runner and 421 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: a receiver. Terrific with the ball in his hands. He 422 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 1: has over thirteen hundred scrimmage yards, and he is the 423 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: matchup nightmare that defensive coordinators don't want to face. Because 424 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: of his versatility and his explosiveness, the New Orleans Saints 425 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 1: offense can really attack you in a variety of ways. 426 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: He and number twenty two mark Ingram have really enabled 427 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 1: the Saints to become more of a running back oriented offense, 428 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,400 Speaker 1: and that has really paid the way for Drew Brees 429 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 1: to have a nice year and Michael Thomas also to 430 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: put up big numbers. And I like the fact that 431 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: he came from a school he used to have a 432 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: football team. It was awesome, man. It has been as 433 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: good Alafe football and a people there and everything. Christmas 434 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: to you two guys. Hey, selly, how's that long time? 435 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: Congratulations on that recruiting class. I appreciate it. Six composite, 436 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 1: I think, so, yeah, you guys have been long way 437 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: to go. You guys have been like top five every year. 438 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 1: Pretty that's worked out well. So maybe changing up this guy, 439 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: change it up. Yeah, let's change it up. All right. 440 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: Let's let's get to one more here. Kareem Hunt. We've 441 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: talked about him earlier in the season. I think he 442 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 1: kind of disappearable. He came back in a big way 443 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: against the Chargers and we saw kind of getting his 444 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: second wind here. Kareem Hunt instincts balance contact. Balance is 445 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: a phrase I like to use with him because you'll 446 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: see him be able in tight spaces, bounce off tackles 447 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: and get fight and scratching claw for those extra two 448 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: three yards can help you in the passing game as well. 449 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 1: I mean, quite a feat. We've seen some rookies now 450 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott, we saw it last year. We also saw 451 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: Jordan Howard last year. I believe he won two in 452 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: the league. And here we come right back with another 453 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 1: rookie this year, Kareem Hunt. He's been outstanding, Bucky and 454 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 1: very deserving of that Pro Bowl nod he does. He's 455 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: a very deserving player. He obviously came out the box fast, 456 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: put up a lot of production not only is a runner, 457 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 1: but as a receiver. I think the interesting thing when 458 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: I look at these two guys that we're talking about 459 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl players, will it ultimately change the way that 460 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 1: we have a way to running back position? On draft day? 461 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: Both guys third round picks, but yet they are two 462 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 1: of the better guys in the league. They emerge their 463 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 1: dominant players, They have impact potential every time they touched 464 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: the ball. So um, I think, obviously, whenever you're a 465 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: scout and you go back and you look at your 466 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: grades and you see you try and figure out what 467 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: did I miss with these guys? Because now if we 468 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: knew now back then when we say that these guys 469 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: are first round talents because their production has been worthy 470 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: of being first round players, no question. Well, congratulations to 471 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 1: those rookies for making the Pro Bowl. Alright. One of 472 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 1: our favorite UH segments here on the show, it's time 473 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: for push past the Expected, presented by Visa. This is 474 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: where we talk some guys need to step up, go 475 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 1: above and beyond. In week sixteen to a piece here, 476 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: Buck lead us off. Mark He's good one for him. 477 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: He is been absolutely terrific since Jimmy Garoppolo has been 478 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback, and I want to continue to see 479 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: him step up. And the reason he has to step up. 480 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: Jacksonville is the real deal outside the corner. But over 481 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: the last three games, twenty four receptions, three nineteen yards, 482 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: and he is going to challenge him with his speed 483 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: and explosiveness. Jalen Ramsey A J. Bouyer. Let's see just 484 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: dude his lights out. He's fast. Let's see what Jaguars 485 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: do for him. I've been impressed. I thought he was 486 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: just kind of purely a vertical guy. He's showing he's 487 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: a little bit more than that. With Jimmy Garoppolo at 488 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: the helm, I'm gonna go Philip Rivers needs to step 489 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: his game up against the New York just not a 490 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: great performance against the Chiefs. Had to turn over some 491 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: You could argue on some miscommunication there with Tyrolle Williams. 492 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: But they need to rebound here this They're not dead yet. 493 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 1: You gotta keep fighting. That's a tough loss for them 494 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: last week. But we'll see what type of maturity this 495 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: team has, and I think that stems from their leader 496 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: in Philip Rivers. If they show up and they are 497 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: ready to go against the New York Jets, he needs 498 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: to have a big game. He needs to have a 499 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: big game, needs quick calling these guys out and he's 500 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: quit showing him up when they make mistakes. Sometimes it's him, 501 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: some times is them be a better man. Let's see 502 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: what Philip does in a big game against the Jets. 503 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: For me, I'm gonna go to Carolina and I'm looking 504 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: at Christian McCaffrey as a guy who needs to step up. 505 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 1: We're seeing this Carolina offense continue to evolve. They've gone 506 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 1: back to doing what they should have done. Look, Cam 507 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: Newton is making plays as a runner, as a playmaker. 508 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: They're running some read options stuff, and they're really using 509 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey and Greg Olsen prominently in the past game. 510 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: This guy has seventy receptions, he has five touchdowns. He's 511 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 1: beginning to get more touches on the ground. We wanted 512 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: to see him be an impact player. Now that we're 513 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,719 Speaker 1: heading down the stretch, we're beginning to see him kind 514 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: of put his own imprint on the game. Let's see 515 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: if he can continue it in a very very competitive 516 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 1: battle against Temp Bay Buccaneers. No, No, that's a good one. 517 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go for my last one. Mark Tavis Bryant. 518 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: With the Steelers Tonio Brown's injury, you talked earlier in 519 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: the show about Juju Smith Schuster needed to step up. 520 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 1: I think Mark Tavis Bryant needs to make some plays 521 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,479 Speaker 1: for this team. We want to see him fight through 522 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: press coverage a little more competitively. I want to see 523 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: him fight for the football when it's up in the 524 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: air a little bit more competitively. He needs to step 525 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: his game up. This is a team you can't afford 526 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: to slip up against Houston right now. I need a 527 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: big rebound week. I do expect mart Tavis Bryant to 528 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: have a big game I think we'll see him step up. 529 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: He has to step up. They need he and Juju 530 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: Smith Shuster to step up because without Antonio Bryant there 531 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: there are plenty of balls to go around. Now they 532 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: get an opportunity to show everybody how good they are 533 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 1: when it comes to being number one and potensially number 534 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: two receivers. He needs to step up. He needs to 535 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: be a vertical playmaker, but also show that he can 536 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: do more. I'm looking forward to seeing how they feature 537 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 1: him because they need him to have about a hundred 538 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: receiving yards if he's going to be a dominant player 539 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: coming into the postseason. All there you go. The challenge 540 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: has been issued. That was pushed past the expected, presented 541 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,120 Speaker 1: by Visa. Something we do every week on the Thursday 542 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 1: show here back in McColl is coming out one Grandmother. 543 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: Tom Todd Gurley turned that thing into a foot raised 544 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: Landard format twen ninety side move curl is gonna go. 545 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 1: You talk about taking up beating here they sound the Saconda. 546 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 1: It's got it thought. Saxon Ville is a lot as 547 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: dominant as you can get. Oh this time, play action 548 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 1: feels down the middle like still has it fired to 549 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: the right side of it falls in Paydirt cut Town, Saxonville. 550 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: If you're gonna be a great defense, you need a 551 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: great nickname, and that's definitely what Saxonville has. But the 552 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: two great turnaround stories this year, Rams and Jack's. Look 553 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: at these numbers from the last two years. The Rams 554 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: four and twelve, the Jacks three and thirteen. They both 555 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: spin it around to be sitting at ten and four 556 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: right now. Bucky the uh look at the numbers on 557 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,959 Speaker 1: the screen here. You see the points per game uh 558 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,719 Speaker 1: Man thirty one and twenty six, respectively for these two 559 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: offenses that were fourteen and nineteen the year before. What 560 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: a turnaround for these two franchises. Absolutely remarkable turnaround for 561 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: both teams. And I think there's a lot of credit 562 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: that can be displayed everywhere. You can throw it to 563 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: the coaching staff, you can throw it to the front 564 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 1: offices for kind putting it together. But both organizations and 565 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 1: franchise deserve credit for getting these teams right there, loaded 566 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 1: with talent and they are ready to go. Both teams 567 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,479 Speaker 1: are primed to make a Super Bowl run. All right, 568 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: Let's let's have the debate here, because talking about making 569 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl run both these teams. Great turnaround is 570 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,239 Speaker 1: not a debate a debate. It's not going to get 571 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: into that one. All right, Well, I'm just gonna tee 572 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:23,719 Speaker 1: up here and just give you the whole thing here 573 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 1: and say this. This is a tough thing to kind 574 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: of sort out of both having great years, great turnarounds, 575 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 1: great stories. But if we had to split hairs, and 576 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: now you're telling me it's not even ah no, do 577 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: bow Man. Look, the Jacksonville Jaguars are the team that 578 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,120 Speaker 1: is primed to make a run at the Super Bowl. 579 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: When you look at the teams that have traditionally done 580 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 1: it year after year after year, it all starts with 581 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: a championship caliber defense. And there's not a better defense 582 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: in football than what you have down in Saxonville. I mean, 583 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: from the nickname to the people that are on the roster, 584 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: this is a team loaded with blue chip talent and 585 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl players. Up front, they can get after you 586 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 1: without having the pressure. You talk about Calais Cambell playing 587 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: like a defense player of a year. Then in the 588 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 1: back end those two corners Jalen Ramsey a J. Booyer, 589 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: they can lock you up. This is a team that 590 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 1: is first in scoring defense first insects. And you always 591 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: tell me this is a passing lead. You've gotta be 592 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: built to stop to pass. They do that, they can 593 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 1: lock you up and they can knock you around. And 594 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: then when you come down the stretch, you want to 595 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 1: make sure that you have a quarterback. A back. Blake 596 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: Borders is on fire, as they say he is. He's 597 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: on He's on fire. Listening to you after all the 598 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: things you've said about this guy, listen to you sell 599 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: me on Blake Borders, sweet irony. And you know right 600 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: now it's called tough love. Coach Coughlin, coach me tough love. 601 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: I'm tough on him because I love him. So now 602 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: he's responded to the tough love you discipline your kids. 603 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: I thought just a one age tough love. I thought 604 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: it was just bandoning everything, just just just just just 605 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: really trying to get it out of and then we've 606 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 1: seen it. Seventy completion rate, seven zero touchdown, the interception 607 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: right in December, man, and even when he's struggling, you 608 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: always can lean on the number one rush offense, even 609 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: when it's going back. Douglroe said, we'd like to play 610 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: a perfect game where we don't throw the ball. Maybe 611 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: they don't throw the ball. They lead the league in 612 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 1: Russian almost a hundred and fifty rushing yards per game. 613 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: They can shove the ball up booty sideways. They are 614 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: terrific getting it done, all right. I don't know. I 615 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: want to ask the guys behind the glass here, because 616 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: surely we've got enough people back there. Anybody play poker, 617 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: raise your hand if you play poker. Okay, So we 618 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: got pretty good, pretty good group. So you know, as 619 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: I understand it, everybody has to tell right, there's always 620 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: a tell you trying to pick that out. So let 621 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: me just replay this in my head what I just 622 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: heard here and see if you guys can find what 623 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: to tell us. Just listen, just listen to my voice 624 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 1: and see if you this is what Bucky just did. 625 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: Bucky just did. I believe in the j Eggs defense, 626 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: it's phenomenal. What's outstanding? But Blake bortles of yeah, yeah, 627 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: he's the best. My voice is going really high right now. 628 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,479 Speaker 1: I know I think that's your tell. I think your 629 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: voice goes elevates a little bit and pitch when you 630 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 1: don't believe something, and you did not believe that I 631 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: didn't feel that December he has. I felt the defense 632 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: thing that I just always wanted to take care to all. 633 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: I want to take care of what he's Finally he's 634 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: finally listened.

And they're winning? What's 638 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 1: the name of my guy? That? Uh? Was the Horizon commercials. 639 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 1: It was in the Baseball movie. Uh, James Earl Jones. 640 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: James Earl Jones for the defense. That's what you gave me. 641 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: You gave me Mike Tyson when you were trying to 642 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: sell because I want to knock your total pitch change. 643 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: I want to knock you will tell Darth Vader you 644 00:27:55,880 --> 00:28:00,040 Speaker 1: mean yes, so Darth Vader also Darth also all so 645 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: the voice of CNN. There you go. That's good. That's good. 646 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: We're starting to buy what Bucky's selling back here. I 647 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: don't know, don't do that, counselor can I make my case? 648 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna make my case here for the 649 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 1: l A Rams and I'm gonna start right at the 650 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 1: most important factor, and that is Sean McVeigh. When you 651 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: look at what he brings to the table as the 652 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 1: premier play caller in the National Football League, there is 653 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: nobody better than him at exploiting and attacking a defense, 654 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: bar none. They have the best offensive play caller, the 655 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: best offensive coach in the league. Got a score points 656 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: in the postseason. Sean McVeigh is going to get that done. 657 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: That's number one for me. Number two Jared Goff just 658 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: continues to get better and better and better the big 659 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: stage and bother him go up to see out. A 660 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 1: lot of people have been embarrassed up there. He handled 661 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 1: it no problem whatsoever. Jared Goff haspent outstanding. I think 662 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: his best football is still ahead of him. I don't 663 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: think it's too big for him. Speaking of that offense, 664 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: let's stay there and go Todd Gurley, who's playing like 665 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: the best running back in the league. So now I've 666 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: got the best play caller, I've got the best running back, 667 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: and I've got it more than competent quarterback. You're in 668 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: great shape. You want to play a physical game in 669 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: the postseason. Talk about bringing your defense. You need to 670 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: bring a run game. They can bring one of the 671 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: best run games in the NFL with Todd Gurley, no doubt. 672 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: I'll take Todd Gurley over Leonard Fournette. You give me 673 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: the choice every day of the week, twice on Sunday, 674 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: it's not close. Then we go to the defense for 675 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: the Rams. I'll give you this, The the Rams defense 676 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: is not the Jags defense. You've got me there. But 677 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: when I look at who can take over a football game, 678 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: I will take Aaron Donald over anybody on that Jacksonville defense. 679 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: They're outstanding. Clay's Campbell's great. Aaron Donald can single handily 680 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: take over a football game. So I'll give you the 681 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: edge on the defensive side. I'll take the edge at 682 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. I'll take the edge of the running 683 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: back position. I'll take the edge of the head coach 684 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: had me until you throwout the head coaching thing, because oh, 685 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 1: I'll take McVeigh. I have two hair coach. I have 686 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: Doug mo and then I have had coach emeritus. Come on, 687 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,719 Speaker 1: Tom Coughlan, who has two Super Bowl rings. And then 688 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back because I know you gave me 689 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: a hard time about really selling it. What you try 690 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: to do is he just you lowered your a little 691 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: basin there when you sell, you lowered your pitch with 692 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: Jared Goff. And it's cool because deep down a side, 693 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: when we go all the way back and we pull 694 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: up the tape of Golf versus Wentz, you know, not 695 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: really Jared Golf guy, that's not really your guy. He 696 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: doesn't really have a soft spot. He doesn't have a 697 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: spot for you. So I understood you sell it. But yeah, 698 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: if you left Jered Golf off the list, I would 699 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: have done it. Answered me this, This could go on 700 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: for a long time. Guys. I hope you guys don't 701 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: have anything else to do back there. Uh answer me 702 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: this honestly, look me in the eye. Tell me the truth. 703 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: You mean to tell me, Jared Goff, who I had? 704 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: Who I had? I had one spot behind Carson Wentz. 705 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 1: One spot. You mean to tell me you think I 706 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: was lower on Jared Goff than you were on Blake 707 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: Bortles six months ago? I can't remember. Okay, there you 708 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: go arrest my case. But I get everything else.
