1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: The Around the NFL podcast likes to pop their color

2
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: and rock advisor.

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 2: Never from the Chris Westling podcast studio. It's Around the NFL.

4
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 2: I am Dan Hansis. Got just one hero with me today.

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 2: It's Greg Rosenthal, Mark Sessler under the weather hopefully back with.

6
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:24,799
Speaker 1: Us during the week.

7
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: Greg never wore Advisor under any circumstances, even in the

8
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 2: darkest of my bro days.

9
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:33,919
Speaker 1: Never Advisor.

10
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 3: I think I had a little two lane Advisor that

11
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 3: I would pop maybe when I'd go golfing in knowledge

12
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 3: at the city courses.

13
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 1: That's about it, though, this is the I want to

14
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: photo that.

15
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 2: This is the week ten double digits flagship program.

16
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: And you know one theme that was starting to come together.

17
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 2: I want to say narrative, but narrative has been turned

18
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 2: into this pejorative, which I don't like because it's being abused.

19
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: So why am I going away from it? Because then

20
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: they win?

21
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 2: But I'm going to stick with it and say a

22
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 2: theme that had been coming together a little bit as

23
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 2: the defenses have in their way more often than not

24
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three. This week was an exception. Eight

25
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 2: teams GREGI today scored at least twenty nine points ten

26
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 2: scored at least twenty seven. We had a near fifty burger,

27
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 2: We had multiple shootouts, good stuff.

28
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 3: We had, for the first time ever, five game winning

29
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 3: field goals on the same day. WHOA, that's pretty crazy.

30
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 3: It's a pretty crazy Sunday. We weren't necessarily expecting there's

31
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 3: some good matchups, but at a lot of good game

32
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 3: winning field goals.

33
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: I clocked that there were a lot.

34
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 2: In fact, at one point, I think we changed one

35
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: of our highlights because it just seemed to me there

36
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 2: was too many game winning thirty one yarders.

37
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: But still that tells you the quality of the games today.

38
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 2: So we're gonna go through them all with up Nick

39
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 2: Schuk joining us a little bit later. Let us start

40
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 2: where we must start in Cincinnati, where the Cincinnati Bengals

41
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: are looking to keep it roll with Joe Burrow, but

42
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 2: CJ Stroud, he said.

43
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: Huh huh, I'm the new guy around here. I'm the

44
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: bad guy.

45
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 4: John Weeks will snap, Cameron Johnston will hold thirty eight

46
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 4: yard field goal of tip from the left hash mark

47
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 4: for the victory for matt Amandola. Here's the snap, here's

48
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 4: the spot, here's the kick. Plenty of leg there's one.

49
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 5: It's god the Texans walk off with a winy Cincinnati

50
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 5: oh man.

51
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 4: They take it thirty to twenty shot Amandola at the buzzer.

52
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, it happens every year around this time of year too.

53
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 2: I feel like where the stakes start building, there will

54
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: be the color guy in the booth who just gets

55
00:02:58,760 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 2: so caught up in the moment.

56
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: No longer a paid employee, he's just a.

57
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 2: Dude yelling yeah because he's happy the team he was

58
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 2: rooting for was victorious. In this case, Yes, the Texans

59
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,079
Speaker 2: who get a thirty eight yarder from Matt Amadola at

60
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:17,519
Speaker 2: the gun to beat the Cincinnati Bengals thirty to twenty seven,

61
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: a game in which Greg CJ. Stroud I thought outplayed

62
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow, which is very notable.

63
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: And then you think about who Joe Burrow.

64
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: Is one of the greatest quarterbacks in the league, and

65
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 2: Stroud now has kind of put a stamp on it,

66
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 2: Greg that he is the most exciting quarterback to enter

67
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 2: the league since Burrow did a few years back.

68
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: So this could be the first.

69
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 2: Of many big time showdowns between these guys, and I

70
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 2: hope they deliver as many classics as this.

71
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 3: And it's the start of the Stroud MVP quote unquote conversation,

72
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 3: it's we got eight weeks here, but he's in the mix,

73
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 3: leading one of the best offenses in the league over

74
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 3: the last couples and to win this game coming off

75
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 3: Cincinnati's two week run where everyone left it saying, Wow,

76
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 3: the Bengals they might beat five and three, but they

77
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 3: also might be the best team in the NFL. And

78
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 3: not just beating them, but beating them in a shootout

79
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 3: and beating them in a game where they put up

80
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 3: five hundred and forty four yards Dan and at one point,

81
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 3: like midway through the third quarter, were tripling the Bengals

82
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 3: in total yardage.

83
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, they could not stop Stroud and they could not

84
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 2: stop the running game Devin Singletary. For the Texans, this

85
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 2: has been a major issue for Houston all season long.

86
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: They have not been able to move the ball on

87
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: the ground. Not the case in this game.

88
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 2: Singletary goes for one hundred and fifty yards, averaging five

89
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 2: yards a pop.

90
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 1: And it felt that way.

91
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 2: It felt like every time he touched the ball it

92
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 2: was five yards, seven yards, eleven yards.

93
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: So he has the big day.

94
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,799
Speaker 2: Noah Brown is I don't know He's unlocked something here

95
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 2: with CJ. Stroud that was not going on with Dak

96
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 2: Prescott Dallas seven for one seventy two. He had one

97
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty plus last week as well. You have

98
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 2: Dell putting the roller skates on a cornerback and scoring

99
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 2: a touchdown in this game, and the fact that they

100
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 2: and we're gonna we'll get into like all the different

101
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 2: like how this game came down to the wire. But

102
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: Houston also gave up the ball multiple times on the

103
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 2: Cincinnati side of the field on turnovers, so that they really,

104
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 2: very rarely, rarely were stopped by Cincinnati's defense, and most

105
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 2: notably the exception being.

106
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: A pick six that Stroud throws.

107
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 2: That was a stunner because the at the time Cincinnati

108
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 2: was down double digit points, there was I believe, less

109
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 2: than four minutes to play in the game. Burrow had

110
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 2: just thrown his second interception of the second half, and

111
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 2: the pick six by Stroud woke up the building. In fact,

112
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 2: a lot of Cincinnati fans are streaming toward the exits,

113
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: Greg and they all pour back in.

114
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 3: And they went down at the one. So Mixon got

115
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 3: the touchdown with nick one yard.

116
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: Oh that's right, my fault. Yes, they get him.

117
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 2: They take it all the way down, get the touchdown,

118
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 2: force the punt, and the Cincinnati Bengals will have to

119
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 2: They'll rue the day and Soul likes I locked them up, Gregie.

120
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: Just one of those years. You know, sometimes you got

121
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 1: to take take the.

122
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: Bad beats, because I will never feel bad about getting

123
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 2: behind the Bengals at home with Joe Pearl playing at

124
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 2: this level. He hits a go ahead touchdown pass that's

125
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 2: just dropped a bad drop.

126
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: They have to settle for field goal and then shut out.

127
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,799
Speaker 2: Tyler Boyd drops a killer one and then Stroud takes

128
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 2: over and marches him right down the field for the winner.

129
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 3: I mean, this is the stuff legendary careers ever made of.

130
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 3: To have that touchdown drive, with those throws with under

131
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 3: thirty seconds left last week, to tanked Oll and then

132
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 3: to be in a position where it's a third and

133
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 3: six at his own twenty nine, he finds Schaltzefter buying

134
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 3: some time, and then a second and six at the

135
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 3: Bengals forty two with fifteen seconds left.

136
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: That's it, and he gets it to Brown who makes it.

137
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 3: Was a terrific throw, and Brown makes an even better

138
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 3: individual play to pick up a lot of yards after

139
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 3: the catch, making tackles. That was a big play in

140
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 3: the Bengals season. Because Trey Hendrickson was hurt on this play.

141
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 3: We hope it's not a serious injury. And then you

142
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 3: get the game winning field goal after that. Seventeen explosive

143
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 3: plays in this game for the Texans offense. It's a

144
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 3: game that we shouldn't need it, but it's like it

145
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 3: lets us think even differently about the Texan season, even

146
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 3: then a week ago, even though last week kind of

147
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 3: got us halfway there is this is another level because

148
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 3: they lost about seven starters to injuries last week. Dan,

149
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 3: you know, Damian Pierce isn't in this game. Nico Collins

150
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 3: isn't in this game. A bunch of players in the

151
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 3: secondary aren't in this game. And then to win it

152
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 3: with seventeen explosives. That's the fourth most of any team

153
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: in any game since two thousand. Whoa the Texans versus

154
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 3: the and that's against a good Bengals defense.

155
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 2: I mean, you want to talk about a team that

156
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 2: is arriving ahead of schedule. That is Houston right now,

157
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 2: and they are showing themselves to be a team that

158
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 2: cannot be taken lightly not you do not lock against

159
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 2: them because they are a team they could absolutely make

160
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 2: you look bad. And it should also noted that this

161
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 2: game started out to script with Burrow going right down

162
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 2: the field and he throws one of the prettiest balls

163
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 2: you'll see all season. He throws it right on the money.

164
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 2: The touchdown goes to Irwin right down the sideline thirty

165
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 2: two yards and he pulls out Burrow. One of my

166
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 2: favorite celebrations I've seen, and sometimes he pulls out the

167
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 2: archerymove like, oh, Burrow the Archer.

168
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: That's a great nickname potentially.

169
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,199
Speaker 2: But then Houston's defense with Dimiko Rans leading the way

170
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 2: there of course, forces five consecutive punts and gets the

171
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 2: game under control. So you saw the Stroud interception late

172
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: that allowed Cincinnati back in the game. But not only

173
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: was the offense something to really be excited about, Houston

174
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 2: putting up ten points in each of the last three quarters,

175
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 2: the fact that their defense is making strides as well.

176
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 3: I mean, look out, they've won different types of games.

177
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 3: I think of that Saints win where the offense actually

178
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: didn't do much they wanted defensively. It's something special is

179
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 3: Brewing here. We'll get to the Jaguars later, but like

180
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 3: that division seems much more open than we expected.

181
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 2: And then all of a sudden, Greggy Cincinnati they got

182
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: the Ravens in Baltimore, and we're gonna get to what

183
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 2: happened with the Ravens today on Thursday night on a

184
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 2: short week, and the Houston Texans get the cards at home.

185
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 3: So like interesting, I did not I would not have

186
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 3: said I would have happily locked this if I wasn't

187
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 3: bullied over the last few weeks from our friend Nick

188
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 3: Wesley to not taking like six point spreads.

189
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: So that help, you know what.

190
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 2: I'm gonna try to get Nick on the show for

191
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 2: the Thursday night football matchup there too, so maybe you

192
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: guys could work some things out, all right. So Houston

193
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: was listeners know a finalist for the Team of Around

194
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 2: the NFL. The other finalists and the actual choice is

195
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 2: the Minnesota Vikings, And here was their first game as

196
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 2: the team of atn hosting the Saints.

197
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 6: Dobbs got the shotgun on third down, Cam Jordan got

198
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 6: around the right tackle. Dobbs, we'll cheese nothing now. He

199
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 6: runs out to the left's magic.

200
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: To somebody he turns off five to the side.

201
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 2: Oh incredible, Shosh Stops put a.

202
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 6: Rushing touchdown past run Minnesota to a sixteen three fleet.

203
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, Stops true for a career high two hundred

204
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 2: and sixty eight yards. He had two total touchdowns, including

205
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 2: that beautiful scramble.

206
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: The Vikings built a big halftime.

207
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 2: Lead and then held on to beat the Saints twenty

208
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 2: seven to nineteen. That is five straight wins for the

209
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 2: team of ATM.

210
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: Whoa that right up? Straight right? I don't know. They

211
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: were owing three yes. They get thumbs up from Roberts

212
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: behind their glass. They were owing three yes. And now

213
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: they are comfortably It's important. This is a very special fie.

214
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 2: They're comfortably in the NFL NFC playoff picture right now.

215
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 2: So Greg, the team of ATM keeps finding away and

216
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 2: with its Dobs right in the.

217
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: Middle of it.

218
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 7: All.

219
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 3: That run in for the touchdown was part of a

220
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 3: first half that was magical. It was like they listened

221
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 3: to our podcast during the week and they said, Dan Mark.

222
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: And Greg believe in us. Hell, we believe in us.

223
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: Josh Dobbs.

224
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 3: I'm not just gonna be like one of the best

225
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,319
Speaker 3: stories of the NFL I'm watching that first half and

226
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 3: I'm just thinking, this is just one of the best

227
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 3: quarterbacks in the NFL right now. The very first play

228
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:33,319
Speaker 3: from scrimmage a dot I think it was to Addison,

229
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 3: a throw they would tell you not to make because

230
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 3: it was so impossible. I'm sure the expected completion on

231
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 3: that from next gen was like ten percent, but he

232
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 3: fits it in the smallest of windows, and I thought, oh,

233
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 3: this could be a pretty special game. A third and

234
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 3: one where they run an RPO something you wouldn't be

235
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 3: able to do with Kirk Cousins. And then a fourth

236
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 3: and seven, or rather a third down breaking tackles before

237
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 3: he threw the ball. That to me was even more

238
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 3: press of. Then that rushing touchdown where he's just like

239
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 3: guys are falling off of him and he's making these

240
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 3: don't I don't even know who to compare him to exactly,

241
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 3: Just like, just imagine any great rushing quarterback where he

242
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 3: just is impossible to get down, but he's still making

243
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 3: terrific throws down the field. Like he added that all

244
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 3: up and they held on in the second half.

245
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: But I don't care. You can't talk about the second half.

246
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 3: They had three hundred and eighty eight yards, twenty seven points,

247
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 3: no turnovers. The offense did their job and they showed

248
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 3: they can win a different type of game with the

249
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 3: way the defense closed it out.

250
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was you know, I was tracking other games

251
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 2: at the time, but you know when you saw the

252
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 2: halftime stats and you saw the highlights, you're thinking yourself, like,

253
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 2: what are we? Is this the Is this the story

254
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: of the twenty twenty three season? And perhaps it might?

255
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 2: And it's almost like the football gods were like, let's

256
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 2: tone it down in the second half here, Actually, we

257
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 2: want to overplay our hand at this point.

258
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 1: And that allowed the Saints to get back into the game.

259
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 2: And the Saints are a team that seems to be

260
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 2: always dealing with some level of drama.

261
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: They lost their quarterback again.

262
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, Derek Carr hurt his shoulders and they listed him

263
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 3: as having the plural concussion.

264
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 1: Your bull shoulders, No, his shoulders.

265
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 3: I meant to like, it was multiple injuries. It his

266
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 3: shoulder and they tested him for concussion. I need to

267
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 3: follow up on that. They believe because Car spoke after

268
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 3: the game, which is usually a sign actually you passed

269
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 3: the concussion part of that. But he took a brutal

270
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 3: hit on his best play of the game. Actually, he

271
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 3: showed toughness on a great throw to Olave and then

272
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 3: just got absolutely hammered and he struggled before he left,

273
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 3: he had a fumble, he held the ball, and then

274
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 3: Jamis comes in and immediately goes like three for three

275
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 3: and through two of the most improbable touchdowns of the

276
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 3: season according to Next Gen Stats. Actually, I think that

277
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 3: was why I was in my mind. His throat to

278
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 3: Olave was the least probable touchdown of the entire season,

279
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 3: and I swear the other one where he threw it

280
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 3: across his body to at Perry and it was just

281
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,839
Speaker 3: a babe, a better play by Jamis even than the

282
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 3: Olave one, which was just an outstanding play by a

283
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 3: Lave and a good throw like those are two of

284
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 3: the best touchdowns of the season.

285
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: But then reality always abut yeah, the reality.

286
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 3: Said, And he threw a couple interceptions, and he had

287
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 3: three different chances to potentially have a game tying driving

288
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter.

289
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: In all three times the Vikings defense stood up.

290
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 2: It's a shame too for the New Orleans offense, because

291
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 2: it seemed like they were starting to find a groove

292
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 2: there with with Carr and Kamara and Taysom with a

293
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 2: lave waking up a little bit. But now once again

294
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 2: cars we don't know what his his situation is. Also

295
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 2: Michael Thomas, it should be known he played in this game,

296
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 2: left with an injury. It's not believed to be serious.

297
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 2: It was an the issue, but he was also arrested

298
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 2: on Friday for an alleged confrontation with a construction worker

299
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 2: near his home.

300
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 3: It was living in the police report, so I don't

301
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 3: need to say reported, but according to the police report

302
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 3: or Michael Thomas was upset someone he believed was recording him,

303
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 3: like one on his phone. It was like an a

304
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 3: contractor construction worker next door, and he walked over and

305
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 3: slapped the phone out of the guy's hand. I don't

306
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 3: know what else exactly happened, but he played in this game,

307
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 3: had any injury. They believe he'll be okay. They actually

308
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 3: said they didn't think it was serious. They have a

309
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 3: buy now, so I think there's some optimism car In

310
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 3: Thomas will return. And I do think it's important to

311
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 3: note like Daniel Hunter had three quarterback hits in this game.

312
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: He was leading the league in sex.

313
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 3: I didn't mention him on my Defensive Player of the

314
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 3: Year ranked you know, talk the other day and he's

315
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 3: he's in that mix too, and he was making a

316
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 3: big play on one of those interceptions by Winston.

317
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: He got pressure.

318
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 3: And I think it's cool that, like their defense really

319
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 3: has played like a top ten defense. To me, it's

320
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 3: telling like this was a coaching wink. You give koc

321
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 3: all this Saints talent an offense, and if you give

322
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 3: Brian Flores maybe what the Saints defense has, I think

323
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 3: it's like they would the Saints would then win this game.

324
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 3: I really believe that the coaching in this game particularly

325
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 3: makes that big of a difference.

326
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: Dennis Allen's defense is not making a big different.

327
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: Nice start for the team of ATN And just a

328
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 2: reminder that all this Dobbs excitement, the greatest wide receiver

329
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 2: in the world is on the Vikings. He's been out

330
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 2: for a month, but we could see him returning to the.

331
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: Fray not too long from now.

332
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 2: So that adds another layer to it, and that went

333
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 2: into the thinking, at least for the old Zeusser of

334
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 2: why this is the team of ATM because you get

335
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 2: to root for a team that has justin Jefferson.

336
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: So there's that, and I want to give a little

337
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: love to TJ. Hockinson.

338
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 2: This According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Gregy the second

339
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 2: NFL tight ends is nineteen seventy eight to catch at

340
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 2: least ten passes for one hundred yards and a touchdown

341
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 2: in one half. And that's playing with a tear of

342
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 2: cartilage in his rib area, playing through pain, kept on

343
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 2: getting whacked. That's a guy that you like to go

344
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 2: to war with.

345
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 3: That's sort of what I'm talking about with koc It's

346
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 3: like they started Brandon Powell. Addison, who was great, made

347
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 3: another really good catching almost a near touchdown. He always

348
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 3: just his hands are great. But they started Brandon Powell

349
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 3: and Jalen Naylor at wide receiver and they're still getting

350
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 3: and not really getting a running game other than Dobbs,

351
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 3: but he ran for forty four, which makes a big difference.

352
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 3: Adding to that, that's what I mean, and yet they

353
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,440
Speaker 3: still find a way. You get Hawkins in the ball.

354
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 3: It's impressive. It's impressive. They're a game and a half

355
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 3: up on that seventh spot right now. At this point

356
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 3: they were actually I would say, considering their schedule and everything,

357
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 3: it's weird to say this with Josh Dobbs, but at

358
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 3: this point I sort of think they're the heavy favorite

359
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,160
Speaker 3: to get a playoff spot at this.

360
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 2: Point, imagine imagine saying that or thinking that after week

361
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 2: three when they were zero and three, we might, we

362
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 2: might give you, give it to you.

363
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: You deserve it, all right.

364
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 2: Let's head to the big shootout that went down across

365
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 2: the sidewalk here in Englewood.

366
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 1: Here we go, final play of the game. Ryan's going

367
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 1: for the win.

368
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 8: Forty one yard field goal to tamp pashpark left side.

369
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 1: Wait to snap there it is Fox the whole Patterson

370
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: the kick, it is up and it is good. They

371
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 1: got it. That's a big line on the final playing

372
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: the game. Good won a game. It was back and

373
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: forth they went, no separation between these two. Almic Patterson

374
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: sends it.

375
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 9: Through to secure up forty one thirty eight victory for

376
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 9: the Lions.

377
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 3: Great call, great f yeah by Dan Campbell. Run out

378
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 3: to the middle of the.

379
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: Deserving a Bungo.

380
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 2: Him man fight pecas See girl brom tongue.

381
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: Yes, the field goal was.

382
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 2: Good at the gun, lifting the Lions to a forty

383
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 2: one thirty eight win over the Chargers, who had a

384
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,479
Speaker 2: lot of pluck, a lot of fight, but they just

385
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 2: could not find a way to stop the Detroit Lions.

386
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: Uh, nobody could stop anybody in this game.

387
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 2: Actually one of those pure shootouts where defense is really

388
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 2: just an idea rather than something that truly exists. And

389
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 2: I want to call attention to and I think we

390
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 2: have sound for it. One of my favorite play calls

391
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 2: of the entire year, and it was so on brand.

392
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 1: It was so on brand for Dan Campbell and the Lions.

393
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,239
Speaker 2: And yet it was still so impressive to see a

394
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 2: team be so fearless and just believing in who they are.

395
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: It's fourth and two for the Lions.

396
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 2: They have the ball, They're already in field goal range

397
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 2: here with one forty seven to play in the game,

398
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,919
Speaker 2: they're at the charges twenty six. I understand we're in

399
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 2: the era now where coaches like to be aggressive, but

400
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 2: when the rubber meets the road, there's not many coaches

401
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 2: that are going to pass on a very makeable field

402
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 2: goal this late in the game. But Campbell was smart.

403
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 2: He said, first of all, I believe in my offense.

404
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 2: Second of all, I know my defense is having a day.

405
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 2: And when you factor those two things in he said,

406
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 2: let's go for it, and they passed the ball Sam

407
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 2: laporta six yard gain, And crucially that means Justin Herbert,

408
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 2: who is lights out with Keenan Allen in this game,

409
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 2: does not see the field again. Otherwise, if you assume

410
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 2: that they make the field goal instead there, you're giving

411
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 2: Herbert about a minute and a half to do damage

412
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 2: there and potentially steal the game.

413
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: Here is Campbell on his decision making there.

414
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 10: Going into that situation. You know, if you don't there

415
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 10: can be a lot of time left. You know, you

416
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 10: kick field goal, you know. So I just I wanted

417
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 10: to finish with the ball in our hands. I liked

418
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 10: where we were at offensively, We're playing good golf, was

419
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 10: in a good spot, and and I just I felt

420
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 10: like that was the right thing to do.

421
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 2: He explains it greg matter of factly, but that was

422
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 2: extremely You have to have like onions, like great big

423
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 2: onions to make a decision like that in that game,

424
00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 2: and it seems like it wasn't even a hard choice.

425
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: That's part of the reason everybody loves this guy. I

426
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 1: love him too.

427
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,399
Speaker 3: He's a great coach, and I think the contrast between

428
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 3: him and Brandon Staley was so there tonight because Brandon

429
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 3: Staley came in. He's misster fourth down guy, and then

430
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 3: Campbell hoists Staley on his own fourth down. But Tard,

431
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 3: you know, my favorite all time. I don't think Staley

432
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,439
Speaker 3: would have been ready for that moment. The thing with

433
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 3: the Lions is you can see what their situational football

434
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 3: reminds me of the Patriots back in the day. And

435
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 3: I know I bring a lot back to the Patriots,

436
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 3: but Campbell knew before that sequence what he was gonna

437
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 3: do in that scenario, Like they get prepared. Brandon Staley,

438
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 3: on the other hand, when there was a big fourth

439
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 3: and one, just the previous drive, burned a very valuable

440
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 3: time out to get everything together before they called what

441
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 3: was ultimately an extremely effective fourth and one ended up

442
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 3: being a long touchdown.

443
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: So you can't kill him.

444
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 3: But I always see with the Lions that they're ready

445
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 3: for these scenarios. They sort of have it gamed out

446
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 3: and like the game not too fast for Dan Campbell

447
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 3: in a way that I I think it is for

448
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 3: a lot of coaches, including Staley, who's a defensive coach ultimately,

449
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 3: and I think this game, especially against another guy who's

450
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 3: hired the same year in the contrast and giving up

451
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 3: eight point three yards per play and all these touchdowns

452
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 3: in on a day where the Chargers scored a touchdown

453
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:23,160
Speaker 3: on their last five drives, literally their last five drives.

454
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 3: They are the first team. This is again, I think

455
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 3: from Josh Dubo the Associated Press. To score a touchdown

456
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 3: on their all their drives in the last forty minutes

457
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 3: of the game and not win unbelievable. So like, actually,

458
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 3: Herbert showed up in the biggest way possible and Staley's

459
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 3: defense just couldn't do literally a thing for him.

460
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 2: And it's funny because they started out they go three

461
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 2: and out the Chargers to start the game. They have

462
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 2: a field goal drive and then and then Herbert throws

463
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 2: an interception. So it starts as a totally different game,

464
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 2: but you know, it turns into what we saw, and yeah,

465
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 2: I think gets you could look at it two ways

466
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 2: with the lines because there's a team that considers itself

467
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 2: a true Super Bowl contender and this was a pretty

468
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 2: epic no show by their defense to consider themselves as contenders.

469
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 2: And you worry how this would look against a team

470
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,399
Speaker 2: like the Eagles, for instance, in the divisional round or

471
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 2: something like that, like you have to have somebody that's

472
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 2: gonna show up. I don't think they had a sack

473
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 2: in this game that they could not, as Greg pointed out,

474
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,159
Speaker 2: get any type of spot. They had no answers or

475
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 2: adjustments for Keenan Allen, who was just shredding them all night.

476
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: One hundred and seventy yards seventy five yards on eleven matches.

477
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 2: Unreal, and that sandwich dround by the way, he came

478
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 2: out of the game briefly with a shoulder, went back

479
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 2: in the game, came out again and went into the

480
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,399
Speaker 2: locker room, and then every time he was back on

481
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 2: the field he was making huge plays.

482
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, they.

483
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,119
Speaker 2: Finished the charges with four hundred and twenty one yards,

484
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 2: but that almost doesn't tell the story because down the

485
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 2: stretch they were as unstoppable as any team you'll see

486
00:23:58,880 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 2: this year.

487
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 3: Well also because of their defense. They only got nine

488
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 3: drives in the game, which is not a huge amount.

489
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 3: So to put thirty eight points in nine drives as wild.

490
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 3: Then again, the Lions, you know, did forty one and

491
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 3: ten drives. It's it's just crazy. And I had I

492
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 3: wouldn't say a friend of the show. I'm not familiar

493
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 3: with Mike be at Bolt Tweeter, but he asked me.

494
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 3: He says, Greg, I need you to spend as much

495
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 3: time as possible tearing Brandon's day to shreds. This week,

496
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 3: Chargers fans are begging you, we need help, don't I

497
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 3: don't think you need help. I think the way this

498
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 3: team is going that they just find different ways to lose.

499
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 3: It's just like when the offense plays well, the defense doesn't,

500
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 3: or vice versa. In the end of games, Herbert can

501
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,199
Speaker 3: play out standing and then they end up like I

502
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 3: think it's gonna take care of it for you, Like

503
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 3: if this team doesn't make the playoffs, I don't think

504
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 3: you need my help. And I just don't think they're

505
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 3: gonna make the playoffs.

506
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're right, it's there is that frustration.

507
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 3: Never know, maybe Herbert just like is an FU the

508
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 3: rest of the way, like this was a big game

509
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 3: for him. Maybe he turns it on, but I sort

510
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 3: of doubt it.

511
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 1: Oh for sure.

512
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,120
Speaker 2: I mean he's coming off a game against the Jets

513
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 2: rare he threw for one hundred and thirty six yards,

514
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 2: did not have a touchdown. Kem Nowen was all but

515
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 2: a race in that game with the exception of a

516
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 2: big catch to help lock down that win on Monday night.

517
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 2: So on a short week for them to show up

518
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 2: and ball out the way they did. And I want

519
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,760
Speaker 2: to give a little because we brought it up in

520
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 2: the newsroom, Greg give a little love also to Aman

521
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 2: Ross Saint Brown because he is you know, I do

522
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:38,639
Speaker 2: the Superstar club and that seems ridiculous Steven talk about it,

523
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 2: but he is the first lines player since Calvin Johnson

524
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 2: to record four straight games of at least one hundred yards.

525
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 2: He ended with a career best one to fifty six

526
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 2: on eight receptions and a touch in this game. It's

527
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 2: just I mean, what else can you ask for from

528
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 2: a number one receiver. It's consistency, it's the production, it's

529
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 2: in big moments, who also played very well in this game,

530
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 2: has a real one there.

531
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 3: And it's also knowing he's the receiver that he's gonna

532
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:09,880
Speaker 3: end up by the end of the season. I would

533
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 3: guess maybe doubling the number two receiver who's probably will

534
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,439
Speaker 3: be Sam Laporta on this team. So that's outrageous, but

535
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 3: they are running the ball incredibly way. Having Montgomery back

536
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 3: is huge. He ripped a long one and Jamiir Gibbs

537
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 3: is making big plays. They run for two hundred yards.

538
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 3: They ran for one hundred and seventy in the first half,

539
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 3: which is just crazy. And you're right about the Lions

540
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 3: in terms of contending, like who knows, but they are

541
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 3: absolutely contending for the one seed, which seems weird to

542
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 3: think about. But they're seven and two, which on its

543
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 3: own is contending for the one seed. They do not

544
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,160
Speaker 3: play a team with the winning record until Week sixteen.

545
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,400
Speaker 3: They finish at Minnesota, at Dallas, and then Minnesota again,

546
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 3: which is a very interesting final three weeks. But their

547
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 3: next five weeks are against teams five hundred or worse.

548
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 3: They're going to be favored in all those games, even

549
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 3: if they lose one of them. They are going to

550
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,679
Speaker 3: be in the mix for home field advantage.

551
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: And my last note is.

552
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 2: An apology to the Lions who are hitting all right.

553
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 2: Buttons I and I'm not alone on this was questioning

554
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 2: why they blew up their backfield because Jamal Williams set

555
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,360
Speaker 2: the touchdown record and DeAndre Swift was a really nice

556
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 2: change of pace guy. But David Montgomery had a gorgeous

557
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 2: seventy five yard touchdown run. In this game, he had

558
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 2: one hundred and sixteen yards and twelve carries. Jamiir Gibbs

559
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 2: had another big game with two touchdowns. They are great,

560
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 2: They are a great ten and there are not a

561
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 2: lot of holes with this team. Well, the defense got

562
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 2: to clean it up, but the offense they can score

563
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 2: on anybody. Let's take a break and then bring in

564
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,959
Speaker 2: the pipe.

565
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: All right, welcome back.

566
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 2: It's time now for the Sunday Drive, presented by the

567
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 2: first ever Toyota Grand Highlander. Let's head to Baltimore, where

568
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 2: Gregy's Ravens look to keep it rolling against the Brownies.

569
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 1: What that's not true?

570
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:53,880
Speaker 11: A little pause. Here's the snap. It's a good one.

571
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 11: Behold is good. The kick is on its way end

572
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 11: over end, and it is good. But there's a flag

573
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 11: on the field. Hold everything, don't.

574
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 2: Flag me on the Callil Hamilton jumping over and it

575
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,919
Speaker 2: looked like he made contact with the brown trying to

576
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 2: do the Miles Garrett.

577
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 1: We'll see, yeah, think of the call like Joe.

578
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 11: Celebrating from the Browns are celebrating from.

579
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 1: Still go will this will land the game? And that

580
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: will land the ball game?

581
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 11: The Browns have won it thirty three thirty one, and

582
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,120
Speaker 11: they've come from behind.

583
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 1: Where's the Siliana. Tom McCarthy with the call w k

584
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: r K.

585
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 2: Another field goal the gun, and this one an absolute stunner.

586
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 2: Dustin Hopkins makes up for a yanked pat that would

587
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 2: have tied the game in the second half after a

588
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 2: stunning pick six by the Browns. He makes up for

589
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 2: it with that field goal and the and the Browns

590
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 2: beat the Ravens thirty three to thirty one. Now we

591
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 2: welcome in White, possibly the largest Cleveland brown fan physically.

592
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 1: I mean he's a beast. I mean, Joe Thomas is

593
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 1: a Browns fan now, Yeah, but have you seen him recently.

594
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 1: He's you know, trim, and he's pretty strong looking.

595
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, I don't I would roll the dice

596
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 2: with Shook the pipe Nick Shook feeling no pain, I'm

597
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 2: sure in Ohio today because a game that the Ravens

598
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 2: seem to have completely in hand, they let get away

599
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 2: and the Browns are right in the thick of it

600
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 2: in the AFC North as a result.

601
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, biggest famous Browns fan, John big Dog Thompson. I

602
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 12: don't know if he's still with us, but when they

603
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 12: came back in ninety nine. He was the face of

604
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 12: the expansion of the return to the league. So I

605
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 12: don't even come close to that guy.

606
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: But well, that guy seems fine, but I'm still going

607
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: with Shook. Yeah. Well, plus we don't know if he's alive,

608
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: so to put him.

609
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 12: To the side, of course, I texted somebody do a

610
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 12: show with longtime friend who is older than me, was

611
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 12: around for the Browns hated in the eighties, and I said,

612
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 12: when was the last time that you saw a Browns

613
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 12: team fight back in a game that looked like they

614
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 12: were surely going to lose and actually finish the job,

615
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 12: get to the precipice of it and come through, because

616
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 12: typically they botched that he texted me back nineteen eighty eight, which,

617
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 12: of course was a bit facetious, but that just goes

618
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 12: to tell you how rare this is for the Browns

619
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 12: for them to go into Baltimore and win a game

620
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 12: in this fashion where they were down seventeen to three

621
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,959
Speaker 12: before they could blink in the first quarter, where they

622
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 12: were down by fourteen points on four separate occasions, and

623
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 12: he raced that every single time and didn't hold a

624
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,479
Speaker 12: lead until there were no seconds left in the clock.

625
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 13: What a game in Baltimore.

626
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 12: The fight I saw from this team I have not

627
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 12: seen from a Browns team in my life, and it's remarkable.

628
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 12: It starts with their defense, but the offense did its

629
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 12: part too. Deshaun Watson finally had a moment that, you know,

630
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 12: kind of made Browns fans think maybe.

631
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 13: The trade was worth it.

632
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 12: He was nearly flawless in the second half, passes of

633
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 12: over ten are yards, a perfect fourteen for fourteen, extending

634
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 12: plays with his feed, even if he did suffer a

635
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 12: bit of an injury during this game. Just a remarkable

636
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 12: performance on both sides of the ball and one that

637
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 12: I sat back and thought, Wow, I cannot believe that

638
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 12: they won that game, because it was a statement against

639
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 12: a team that looks like one of the best teams

640
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 12: in football, and the Browns went toe to toe with them.

641
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: Sugary.

642
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 2: It's twenty four to nine late in the third quarter

643
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 2: in this game, and I had said on the Thursday

644
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 2: preview show that I thought this was was the end

645
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 2: of excuses for Watson.

646
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 1: He needs to be a guy that these type of games.

647
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 2: Is one of the biggest Browns games in a long

648
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 2: time against the Ravens, in Baltimore.

649
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 1: There's a lot on the line. We all know, as.

650
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 2: Cestog is known to say that they ripped from the

651
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 2: belly of Cleveland, the Ravens. There's always going to be

652
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 2: a lot of bad blood for that reason as well.

653
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 2: And Andrew Ciciliano, who I mentioned minutes ago, longtime Browns fan,

654
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 2: he told me, texted me today we're texting about the game.

655
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 2: He said, he's screaming at his phone on the podcast

656
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 2: that I would even say that Watson needed to step

657
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 2: up in this game because they were down three offense

658
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 2: of linemen and he was in a very difficult spot.

659
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: And you saw that in this game.

660
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 2: How I there were not many times where Watson has

661
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,959
Speaker 2: a clean pocket to work with and he's taken a beating,

662
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 2: and the stats reflective he throws a pick six Greg

663
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 2: immediately his numbers are terrible. They just seemed dead in

664
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 2: the water. So the fact that the offense with Watson

665
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 2: were able to steady themselves in the second half, it

666
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 2: really was kind of a growing up type game for them.

667
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 12: Well yeah, you know, at one point he was two

668
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 12: for eleven in this game. I mean, he looked pretty

669
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 12: bad and they looked bad. As an offense.

670
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: The offense.

671
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 3: He finishes twenty for thirty four, So do the math.

672
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 3: There was barely an incompletion after that.

673
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's fourteen to fourteen in the second half. But yeah,

674
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 2: he looked, he looked jittery. The Ravens pass rush was

675
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 2: going nuts, David Clowney was having another big game, and

676
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 2: then it all kind of shifted.

677
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: Well that.

678
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the helmet interception pick six by Greg Newsom was

679
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 3: massive in this game. And this is the third week

680
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 3: out of three I believe where all bouncing off a

681
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 3: helmet has turned into a huge play for the Browns.

682
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 3: They're now two and one in those scenarios, two.

683
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: Three touchdowns right right, No one.

684
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 3: The J Paul Adams wasn't a touchdown. It led to

685
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 3: the game winning touchdown for the CX. But it's good.

686
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 3: Maybe that shows that it's going the Browns way. But

687
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 3: I am I'm with you on the excuses. Forget about

688
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 3: the tackles. It's like C. J. Stroud was lighting people

689
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 3: up without an entire offensive line earlier in the season.

690
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 3: The Texans lost seven starters last week and just beat

691
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 3: the Bengals. So yes, if you're gonna be a great quarterback,

692
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 3: you do have to overcome things like that, and it

693
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 3: sounds like Watson did today kind of talk me through

694
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter there where where they do have those drives.

695
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 3: There was a seventy five yard drive that ended with

696
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 3: the Elijah Moore touchdown, the game winning field goal drive,

697
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 3: and even before that, a seventy five yard drive to

698
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 3: get at to twenty four to seventeen, Like, what what

699
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 3: did those drives look like? Was it like the Kevin

700
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 3: Stefanski offense. Was it the Deshaun Watson offense? What what

701
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 3: are they doing?

702
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 12: Well, it was kind of vastly different from drive to

703
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 12: drive because the first one you talked about, the May

704
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 12: twenty four to seventeen was a methodical drive. I think

705
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 12: it was the law uest drive the Browns had put

706
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 12: together in terms of time and play.

707
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 1: Ten minutes, like in like ten fifteen years.

708
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 12: I can't remember exactly what the stat was, but it's

709
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 12: been a very long time since they'd put that type

710
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 12: of drive together. They ended it in classic Browns fashion,

711
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 12: pounding on the ground with Kareem Hunt after failing to

712
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 12: do so on the doorstep of the end zone earlier

713
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 12: in the game. So that was refreshing. But then the

714
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 12: next drive, you start to feel a little desperation creeping

715
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,800
Speaker 12: because you realized, look, it's early fourth quarter, we're running

716
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 12: out of time, You're still down two scores. They go

717
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 12: seventy five yards and six plays, and the key play

718
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 12: being Watson rolling away from pressure as he'd been under

719
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,279
Speaker 12: pressure all day, looking like, oh no, what's gonna happen?

720
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 13: Is he gonna get stripsacked? Is he gonna fumble?

721
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 12: Is he gonna make a mistake, And just as he's

722
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,200
Speaker 12: about to cross the line of scrimmage, he finds Elijah

723
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 12: Moore wide open in the end zone for a touchdown.

724
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 12: A connection that has not been there all year. Was

725
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 12: refreshing to see as well. So there were two very

726
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 12: different drives in terms of style. And then, of course,

727
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 12: as you said, the pick six that's really what changed everything.

728
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 12: But even then they get the ball with like four

729
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 12: and a half minutes to go, and I'm thinking, I

730
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 12: don't know, man, full field, like, all you gotta do

731
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 12: is getting field goal range. It'd be a lot nicer

732
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 12: if you're the Browns, if you were TI right now

733
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 12: than being down thirty one to thirty.

734
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:03,479
Speaker 1: And yet they followed through.

735
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 3: They came through, and they killed the entire clock, which

736
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 3: is very difficult to do.

737
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 12: At one point, I was like, they need to speed

738
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 12: up a little bit, and they didn't. They it was

739
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 12: a measured drive they made. You know, they connected on

740
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 12: pass as David Joki played a big part in the

741
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 12: second half for them. And then the play that I

742
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,479
Speaker 12: think he explained it all was who wants this win more?

743
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,839
Speaker 12: And off to Jerome Ford going to the right side

744
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 12: and almost the entire offense gets him to scrum with

745
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 12: him and pushes him forward for an extra six yards.

746
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 12: That right there to find who this Brown team could

747
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 12: be because they do play hard and definitely play hard

748
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 12: to the end.

749
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 2: And on the flip side of that, Greg you have

750
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 2: the Ravens, who, by the way, were banged up in

751
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,359
Speaker 2: this game as well. Cornerback Marlin Humphrey goes out left

752
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 2: tackle Ronnie Stanley, he limped to the locker room.

753
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:49,240
Speaker 1: He did not return. It is now that's three.

754
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 2: They've had a great year over all, the Ravens, but

755
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,439
Speaker 2: that's now all three of their losses have been bad ones,

756
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 2: like tough ones, ghastly and that that run that Nick

757
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 2: is referring to is like who wants a more moment?

758
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 2: In the cruci bow of the game. And it's that

759
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 2: DNA that I just wondered about with Baltimore. I know

760
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 2: they're gonna be okay. I know they're probably I don't

761
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:07,799
Speaker 2: want to say they're probably gonna win this division because

762
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 2: it is wide open.

763
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, they have a half game lead

764
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 1: on two teams.

765
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 2: But can they really avoid this type of blow up

766
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 2: in January because it pops up periodically this team.

767
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 3: This is a two year trend. Now, no team in

768
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 3: the NFL has lost more ten point leads since the

769
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 3: start of last season than John Harbaugh's Ravens. So you

770
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 3: know who's second, Like he doesn't have a coaching job anymore.

771
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 3: It's Josh McDaniels and the Raiders. So it's like there,

772
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 3: it's crazy that down this game they got out gained

773
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 3: the other two that they blew earlier in the season.

774
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 3: They totally outplayed their opponents and managed to lose this one.

775
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 3: They have a monster lead and get out played. They

776
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 3: couldn't run the ball nearly as well as the Browns.

777
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 3: There is two things canna be true. I think they

778
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 3: have the the ingredients to go win a Super Bowl

779
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 3: because they're very balanced, and yet there is something about

780
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 3: them that clearly is blows games with leads, and that's

781
00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 3: that's very worrisome.

782
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 12: It's it's the fourth quarters. It was the case against Pittsburgh.

783
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,439
Speaker 12: The game against Indianapolis was just a weird one where

784
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 12: they had like nine opportunities to win it and just

785
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 12: couldn't do the job. It's been in the margins, like

786
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,720
Speaker 12: they're just not winning in the margins, and it's leading

787
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 12: to these not like collapses or meltdowns, but somewhere in

788
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 12: between the descriptive word I can't come up with right now.

789
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 12: That's what they've been is just like slowly falling apart

790
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 12: and letting the other team that kind of doesn't have

791
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 12: any business being in the game. The Pittsburgh game was

792
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 12: like that, even today was like that. They let them

793
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 12: back in the game and then before they know what,

794
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 12: they look up and they're about to lose or they

795
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 12: are losing. And that's a concerning sign because if you're

796
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 12: a contender, you really want to win a Super Bowl,

797
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 12: you don't make those types of mistakes against the better

798
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 12: opponents in that hall, against.

799
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,359
Speaker 3: The lesser Yeah, now you got the Bengals, Like this

800
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 3: division race is ooh, it's fun insane.

801
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 2: Guess what Bengals are in last place? And who do

802
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 2: you think the Browns have? They got the Steelers. So

803
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 2: Week eleven is going to be a lot of fun.

804
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 2: And that was the Sunday Drive presented by Toyota Let's

806
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 2: Highlander Shook. Let's head to Seattle, another game that went

807
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:00,759
Speaker 2: down to the very end.

808
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: Here we go.

809
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 9: It comes down to this, Jason Myers between the hash

810
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 9: marks from forty three.

811
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 1: The kick is going to.

812
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 9: Be long enough.

813
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: The Chickens god another one Buyers went on the last

814
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:13,320
Speaker 1: play of the game.

815
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 9: But Sehawks facing all kinds of issues in the fourth quarter,

816
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 9: they come back, they score and now they win it

817
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 9: on the last play from forty three yards.

818
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,760
Speaker 2: Out deeper Abel Seahawks Radio Jason Myers at five field goals,

819
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 2: including that forty three yarder you heard his time expired

820
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 2: and the Seattle Seahawks survive. The Washington Commander is a

821
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 2: twenty nine to twenty six when shook, we heard there

822
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 2: that exactly how it was phrased. There all kinds of

823
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 2: problems or obstacles.

824
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 4: Is he is?

825
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 1: What is he referring to for Seattle today.

826
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 12: I think this game was a perfect example of how

827
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 12: football is very much a four quarter sport because this

828
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 12: was a snooze fest going and a halftime. Guys, just

829
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,439
Speaker 12: field goals left and right, one touchdown, and an extra

830
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 12: point that wasn't converted, so it made it look like

831
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,760
Speaker 12: two field goals on the scoreboard. I thought, is this team?

832
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 12: Is this game ever gonna wake up? One of these

833
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,879
Speaker 12: teams actually going to start to find some success offensively. Now,

834
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 12: Seattle's defense has been young and hungry, good, you know

835
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 12: that and everything else. We've been around that block a

836
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 12: few times. But it was more an example of these

837
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 12: two teams that just couldn't hit their stride, and then

838
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 12: all of a sudden, out of nowhere, the points start

839
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 12: coming in bunches. The last five possessions between these two

840
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 12: teams they went like this, field goal, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown,

841
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,360
Speaker 12: field goal, end of game. That's where all the points

842
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 12: came from, because before that it was punt, punt, punt,

843
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 12: field goal, fumble, end of half, all that in between,

844
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 12: nobody could get the job done. It's like they just

845
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 12: woke up and when, oh god, we're playing football. It's

846
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 12: the fourth quarter. It's a tie game or it's a

847
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 12: very close game, maybe we should do our jobs. And

848
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 12: Seattle ended up being the one because they had the

849
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 12: ball last. They did their job better well.

850
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 3: They had twenty seven first down four hundred and eighty

851
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:54,919
Speaker 3: nine yards. It didn't feel like it, you know, even

852
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 3: in the first half they had over two hundred yards.

853
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 3: They were sloppy. I think it was a big second

854
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 3: half for Gino. Look, there were there were some booze

855
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 3: at what is it, what do they call it now?

856
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 3: I believe yeah, yeah, yeah, there were some booze, which

857
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 3: you know, you don't hear it. There's certainly been a

858
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 3: lot like I, I know you've been talking Gino, and

859
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 3: I've been pushing back, but you're not the only one. Locally,

860
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 3: they've been talking about whether they should bench Drew Locke

861
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:25,280
Speaker 3: and everyone pushing back on that. And he was uneven.

862
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,280
Speaker 3: Even though his numbers weren't bad, Gino was very uneven.

863
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,399
Speaker 3: Was missing some throws and he wasn't on the same

864
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 3: page with his receivers in the first half, which is

865
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 3: why I think the second half was huge, because he

866
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 3: basically played perfect. Him and Lockett connected ended up with

867
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:42,760
Speaker 3: eight for ninety two. Like that was a great touchdown

868
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 3: past to him. DK Metcalf who didn't really like use

869
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:48,439
Speaker 3: his physicality. I think sometimes like he doesn't play as

870
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 3: big as he is and let a few balls like

871
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,479
Speaker 3: contested catches. He didn't get him in the first half.

872
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,200
Speaker 3: He's a monster in the second half, including on the

873
00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 3: game winning drive, a couple game winning drives, and Gino

874
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 3: had had a couple total dime so to finish the

875
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 3: game the way he did to quiet it down on. Really,

876
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 3: their defense has been fine this year. It's been their

877
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,760
Speaker 3: offense that has concerned me. They needed a big offensive

878
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 3: game and they got it. And there's six and three,

879
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 3: even though that hasn't felt like a great six and three.

880
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 2: I would have two drives by Sam Howe that in

881
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter there to tie the game.

882
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 1: I would have went for two maybe yeah.

883
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 3: The Ron rivera one, And maybe he didn't because he

884
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:29,919
Speaker 3: thought there was too much time left. That is sort

885
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 3: of the analytical way to look at it is Actually,

886
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 3: when there's a minute left, there's such a good chance

887
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 3: they could get a field goal anyways, that don't even

888
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,640
Speaker 3: bother to risk it. But Ron Ron's got like the

889
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 3: riverboat Ron of quarterbacks, right, now.

890
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 1: You might as well go after him. He really is

891
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: like Minie Russ.

892
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 3: I was thinking that because he was in Seattle, like

893
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,280
Speaker 3: Sam Howell is poor Man's Russ Wilson. Like everything today

894
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 3: that was good was out of structure. It wasn't any

895
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:55,720
Speaker 3: like timing throws.

896
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 2: But they were talking about the good Russ Wilson from Seattle.

897
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:00,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely good, and there were a lot There was

898
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 3: a lot good from how today.

899
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 12: It's weird because I watched Sam Hall and I'm like

900
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 12: slowly falling in love with his play style. Even though

901
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 12: there's like a boneheaded mistake or two every game, you

902
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:10,279
Speaker 12: know it's coming. He did it in New England and

903
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 12: threw a pick in the end zone. He did it

904
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 12: on Sunday when he tried to scramble too far and

905
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 12: ended up fumbling. But that fumble didn't end up hurting

906
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 12: them because Seattle couldn't do anything with it. But at

907
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 12: the same time, it's the out of structure stuff. It's

908
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 12: the way that he just finds ways to make plays.

909
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 12: And it's the touchdown drives that he had in the

910
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 12: fourth quarter of this game, including the touchdown pass to

911
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 12: Dianni Brown that tied the game.

912
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 1: I mean that was like, oh, that was a gem.

913
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 13: Strike over the middle.

914
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 12: It was so stunning that I think the defense was

915
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 12: shocked he had the ball and then he's in the

916
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,040
Speaker 12: end zone and the stadium stunned and they don't know

917
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,360
Speaker 12: what to say because they were pretty much trying to

918
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 12: put away a win right there.

919
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,360
Speaker 13: So I love watching him play. I very much agree with.

920
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 3: It ended up working out well for them that they

921
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 3: gave up the score of that quickly and.

922
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:48,840
Speaker 2: They sold at the deadline. So this is not the

923
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 2: same team that broke camp. But you know, Washington's defense

924
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 2: was supposed to lift them this year and it's been bad.

925
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:55,840
Speaker 1: They get the Cowboys twice.

926
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:57,719
Speaker 2: Still, they get the Dolphins, and the Nine are still

927
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 2: in their schedule, So I think Washington is going to

928
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,839
Speaker 2: make a quick exit from the playoff picture, but maybe

929
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 2: they'll be fun watching it as they do it.

930
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 1: Let's move on one more show. You want to hang

931
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: around for one more do it.

932
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 2: Let's head to Tampa where the Bucks are looking to

933
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 2: get off the sneide.

934
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 1: Heere's makefield shotgun? Look looks right? How back to his left?

935
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: Those towards left caught Baull Evans at the five three two.

936
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 1: It stops. Have a burg there you go, fire the cannon.

937
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 14: Spike Evins really nice, John A.

938
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,399
Speaker 5: Baker, he had those happy fi He looked to his left,

939
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 5: who's right, But then he was able to find Mike

940
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 5: Evans coming on an in row right in the.

941
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 1: Middle of the field. I love my Jean dagger off

942
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 1: w f U S.

943
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 2: Mike Evans atoned for a hideous drop earlier in the game.

944
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: I'm a short touchdown with.

945
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 2: That bulldozing TD score provided the Bucks with some breathing

946
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 2: room in an eventual twenty to six win over the Titans,

947
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 2: shook e Bucks snap a four game losing skid, and

948
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 2: the Titans are back to being one.

949
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 1: Of the most boring teams in the world. That about right,

950
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, that's absolutely right.

951
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 12: Look we'll go winners first, because the Buccaneers finally experienced

952
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,160
Speaker 12: the sweet taste of victory for the first time in

953
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 12: a month, something that they probably felt they should have

954
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:18,800
Speaker 12: had once or twice prior, and it was Baker Mayfield

955
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,280
Speaker 12: leading the way. I my buddy, longtime best friend since college,

956
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,960
Speaker 12: was in town this weekend. He works in Tampa. He said,

957
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 12: the discourse down there is that they should consider going

958
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 12: to Kyle Trask, and I said, are you crazy?

959
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 13: Have you watched this team? Baker's one of the only

960
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 13: good things stopping with this offense right now.

961
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:37,399
Speaker 3: And Mike Evans, literally every fan base does like if

962
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 3: you lose games quarterback, no matter what.

963
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 13: There's no context, it's the worst the exactly.

964
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 2: Baker basically won a game last week before I got

965
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,320
Speaker 2: stolen away by the kid.

966
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 13: It was his fault that they gave up thirty nine points.

967
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:50,720
Speaker 12: But it was also his fault that Mike Evans couldn't

968
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 12: catch a pass today, right wrong. Mike Evans was going

969
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 12: through it on the sideline emotionally. He walks over to

970
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 12: the sideline, he slams a cooler with his fist, he

971
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 12: puts a towel over his head that is in his hands.

972
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 12: He's emotionally distraught because he can't figure out how to

973
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,839
Speaker 12: catch passes, and then suddenly he finds it again. And

974
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 12: that's how they just cruise to a victory. And I

975
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 12: say cruise because it was only twenty to six. But

976
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,720
Speaker 12: if you watched his Titans offense last week or this week,

977
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 12: you know their ceiling is very low. And that's not

978
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 12: a knock on Will Levis.

979
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,719
Speaker 3: I didn't know that even after watching it last week,

980
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 3: I thought they were showing some promise last week.

981
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 13: Yeah, there's finished the drives. This is the problem.

982
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:26,399
Speaker 1: This is a big Yeah.

983
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 2: Levis had the four touchdown game, and then even on

984
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 2: Thursday night against the Steelers, he was throwing some balls

985
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 2: that were like, okay, you see what Yeah, see what's there?

986
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 2: So I was kind of bummed to be watching this

987
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 2: one from a farm and be like, oh, where is

988
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 2: the sizzle?

989
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 1: We thought maybe we had a stake on our hands here,

990
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: but apparently not.

991
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,399
Speaker 13: Well, you know, you know what the problem is, guys,

992
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:45,359
Speaker 13: is they can't run the ball.

993
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 12: Derrick Henry two point two yards carried at an eleven attempts, Like,

994
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 12: that's not going to get the job done. You have

995
00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 12: a rookie quarterback. What's the best way to help him out?

996
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 12: Get some easy targets to your tight ends and establish

997
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 12: a running game. They don't have that. I think it

998
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 12: starts up front for them. It's not Levis's problem. He's

999
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,080
Speaker 12: a rookie. He's still trying to figure it out, and

1000
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 12: he's showing off his arm and all that stuff. He's

1001
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 12: doing all right, but the offense, just their potential is

1002
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 12: not there. It's why they had six points in this

1003
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:08,760
Speaker 12: game today. It's not that Tampa's defense is suddenly great again.

1004
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:10,759
Speaker 12: It's that they're playing a team that was much less

1005
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 12: capable offensively than the opponent they faced last week. So

1006
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 12: it's gonna be tough for the Titans. I hate to

1007
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:16,799
Speaker 12: say it, because I was not a Will Levis fan

1008
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 12: coming out of the draft, but I've been pleasantly surprised

1009
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:19,760
Speaker 12: by how he's played.

1010
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,239
Speaker 13: It's just that, you know, one stat really defined it

1011
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 13: to me. Tampa's sent the.

1012
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 12: Blitz all afternoon at him because they had no fear

1013
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 12: that he was going to make them pay for it.

1014
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 12: Because they had no reason to fear it because he's

1015
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 12: a young guy and they're just they lack talent in

1016
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 12: certain areas. So gonna be a tough one Titans fans.

1017
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 12: I'm sorry, maybe he's your future, but this year is

1018
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 12: not gonna be an easy one to.

1019
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 2: Swazn't shook have that that little boy on Christmas Eve

1020
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,959
Speaker 2: glow is like at the family party. Christmas Eve party

1021
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 2: where it's about six pm. Everybody's you know, had their

1022
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 2: dinner or whatever, and now it's becoming real that we're

1023
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 2: going home soon and it's off the bead with the

1024
00:46:56,280 --> 00:47:00,720
Speaker 2: milk and cookies and Santa's coming that shook today around.

1025
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,240
Speaker 1: He's just in a great He's in a great happy place.

1026
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 2: He's in that good little boy or girl on Christmas

1027
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:08,360
Speaker 2: Eve place, and you deserve it.

1028
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:08,760
Speaker 1: Shooky.

1029
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 12: I'm already formulating my strategy to convince my mother to

1030
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:12,760
Speaker 12: let me open a gift early.

1031
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:14,880
Speaker 1: Oh. I love it, I love it.

1032
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 3: I mean, the Calves beat the Warriors the other night.

1033
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 3: It is uh, it is Cleveland time, and Bucks fans

1034
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:26,320
Speaker 3: like like your buddy or I don't know, maybe he

1035
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,359
Speaker 3: just lives there and he's not a fan. They're tied

1036
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 3: in the lost column for the lead in the NFC South.

1037
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 3: There is no reason that the Bucks can't win this

1038
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,319
Speaker 3: lousy division. I mean, I give them, I give them

1039
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,239
Speaker 3: just about as good a chance as as the other

1040
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 3: two contenders. At least they have, you know, Mike Evans

1041
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 3: having this nice browback season.

1042
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: He reminds me of t O.

1043
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:50,400
Speaker 3: No one makes more tough catches but drops easier catches than.

1044
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:52,359
Speaker 1: You guys.

1045
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:54,839
Speaker 12: I can even sit back and enjoy Baker Mayfield's play

1046
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 12: and have no disdain for him whatsoever.

1047
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,040
Speaker 13: Like I'm enjoying watching him play quarter.

1048
00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 1: You're in a good place. You're in a very healthy mind.

1049
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 13: This morning I was feeling pretty dangerous and we.

1050
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,399
Speaker 1: All love it. Sure, all right, Chokey, Thanks Bud, See

1051
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:05,839
Speaker 1: you next week.

1052
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:07,800
Speaker 13: All right, guys, thanks, all right, Let's.

1053
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 1: Keep moving to the field formerly known as Hines.

1054
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:16,479
Speaker 6: Three seconds left, first and ten at the sixteen, they're

1055
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 6: in cover six.

1056
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 1: Here's the snap. He's back, he looks, he fires for

1057
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 1: the goal line. Peter stepped in, head down his table.

1058
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 5: This game.

1059
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 1: Don't kill the special teams coach. You killed the special

1060
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:33,560
Speaker 1: teams coach tended to watch him. Oh, it just got

1061
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:38,720
Speaker 1: a little heavy over there. Some people got rocked. Packers

1062
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:42,799
Speaker 1: got rocked. They sure tough year Green Bay.

1063
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 2: The Steelers got scoring runs from Jalen Warren and naj

1064
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,920
Speaker 2: Harris for the defense closed it out with that interception.

1065
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:52,560
Speaker 2: It was a twenty three nineteen win over the Packers

1066
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh, Greg.

1067
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,839
Speaker 1: This feels like a lot of Steelers games this year.

1068
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:02,000
Speaker 2: They're out gamed at times, they seem like an undercooked entity,

1069
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 2: but then they make the play when it matters, and

1070
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 2: they get the big stop at the end, and all

1071
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:07,080
Speaker 2: of a sudden and they got another win.

1072
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:08,640
Speaker 3: You took the words out of my mouth that I

1073
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:10,799
Speaker 3: didn't feel like I learned anything about either one of

1074
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,240
Speaker 3: these teams. They both continued on the path. I guess

1075
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,319
Speaker 3: I would say both offenses have shown some signs of

1076
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 3: life the last couple of weeks, and that continued. The

1077
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:24,960
Speaker 3: Steelers ran for two hundred and five yards, and they

1078
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 3: when they ran that well against the Titans, who are

1079
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 3: pretty good run defense, that okay, maybe they got something near.

1080
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 3: Warren goes for one oh one, Naje Harris goes for

1081
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 3: eighty two. They both have the touchdowns, as you mentioned,

1082
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 3: so they had a running game. Pickett still had his

1083
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:40,600
Speaker 3: share of struggles, but it's something even for them. Getting

1084
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,200
Speaker 3: over three hundred yards is something. And the Packers actually

1085
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 3: moved the ball pretty well all game. They just kind

1086
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,720
Speaker 3: of ran out of time and couldn't get that winning touchdown.

1087
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,359
Speaker 1: Go ahead, log it up?

1088
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 4: What?

1089
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right, I did lock it up. Give

1090
00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 1: it to me, Eric, Eric, I'm having a down year

1091
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:03,280
Speaker 1: in the Locks. At the very least. You you shouldn't

1092
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 1: have me engineering.

1093
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 3: I mean, I sort of forgot. Mark also locked this up.

1094
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 3: So double it up here we were talking about it earlier,

1095
00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:13,760
Speaker 3: and uh, I just want to say thank if Nick Westling,

1096
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,240
Speaker 3: if you're listening, I was absolutely planning to lock the Ravens,

1097
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 3: but you sort of shame me out of taking these

1098
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,440
Speaker 3: six the six and a half point spread.

1099
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,440
Speaker 1: So you you got me a win today. Thank you.

1100
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 1: I'm not even joking. That's one hundred percent what happens.

1101
00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 2: I mean, you're just that just shows you what living

1102
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 2: in a blessed existence in the picks this year. Let's

1103
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,400
Speaker 2: let's let's face it. You're like the Falcons at the

1104
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 2: beginning of the year.

1105
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:35,879
Speaker 1: But this is what the Steelers do.

1106
00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:39,399
Speaker 3: I mean, I think there it said AP said they're

1107
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 3: the twenty second team. I believe Josh Dubo of the

1108
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 3: AP to be out gained, I mean nine straight weeks

1109
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:49,239
Speaker 3: to start the season, and the other teams that have

1110
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 3: done that are combined thirty three two.

1111
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 2: And so that suggests, okay, let's let's let's stop there

1112
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,919
Speaker 2: for a second. That suggests that this is regression coming

1113
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,960
Speaker 2: for this team, because it's not like they play in

1114
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,400
Speaker 2: a bad It's not like, using the Falcons as an example,

1115
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:08,239
Speaker 2: they're playing in some dog division and steal in a

1116
00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:10,480
Speaker 2: bunch of ones. They are in the best division in football,

1117
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 2: and yet they have found a way each almost every week.

1118
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 2: Here there's six and three now, and you mentioned Pickett,

1119
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:21,240
Speaker 2: like he is not making the strides that they expected

1120
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,799
Speaker 2: into at a certain point you think this is going

1121
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 2: to catch up with him, or if you want to

1122
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:27,920
Speaker 2: look at it as a positive side of things as

1123
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:31,320
Speaker 2: a Steelers fan, they're still figuring things out and winning

1124
00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:34,239
Speaker 2: and if they ever actually lock into something offensively in

1125
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:37,879
Speaker 2: terms of actual some type of style, maybe they can

1126
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 2: you know, this is just the beginning.

1127
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,400
Speaker 1: Well, that's so I've been looking at that.

1128
00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:43,720
Speaker 3: At some point, if they keep winning these games, they're

1129
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,280
Speaker 3: kind of bound to start playing better and then actually

1130
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 3: deserve to win me games. And I actually think Pickett,

1131
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 3: although he was very lucky, there was a call Packers

1132
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 3: fans will be going crazy about where it appeared he

1133
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 3: threw a backwards pass that was a total that would

1134
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:01,040
Speaker 3: have been a change of possession. They rule that it

1135
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,720
Speaker 3: was not there was There wasn't like a perfect angle

1136
00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 3: that was right on the on the right spot to

1137
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,000
Speaker 3: see it until someone on Twitter, I don't know if

1138
00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:12,479
Speaker 3: they were in the crowd or what it was, did

1139
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:15,719
Speaker 3: sort of have the right angle and it did.

1140
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 1: Like a scoop and score or what.

1141
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,600
Speaker 3: No, but they would have been a change of possession

1142
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 3: and ball ball in the Steelers end.

1143
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:26,839
Speaker 1: And I actually was I was encouraged late in this game.

1144
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:28,839
Speaker 3: I wanted to point out it was third and nine

1145
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 3: with just over two minutes to go and uh and

1146
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:36,200
Speaker 3: the Packers did not have a time out, and actually

1147
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:38,160
Speaker 3: with exactly two minutes to go, it was after the

1148
00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 3: two minute warning, and I stunned that they called the

1149
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 3: pass there so instead of running the ball, they actually

1150
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 3: trusted Pickett to throw the ball and he threw a

1151
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:49,880
Speaker 3: dime for twenty eight yards and it got called back

1152
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,360
Speaker 3: because of an offensive pass interference. I did lead to

1153
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 3: that play, but it was a very aggressive, extremely aggressive

1154
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,759
Speaker 3: play call, I would say, considering the situation, they hit it,

1155
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,880
Speaker 3: the penalty didn't happen, and then they they ended up

1156
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 3: making the spot. They're not a great defense right now,

1157
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 3: but they have been playing well like when they've needed to,

1158
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 3: including this game.

1159
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 1: And the Packers.

1160
00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:12,439
Speaker 2: Was it Lafloor or was it the GM that kind

1161
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:14,360
Speaker 2: of put Love a little bit on the spot in

1162
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 2: the second half, saying they need to see something still

1163
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,160
Speaker 2: waiting for him to kind of to break through here.

1164
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 2: There's been an issue for Love with Christian Watson, which

1165
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:25,719
Speaker 2: has been a surprise. I think a lot of us

1166
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,839
Speaker 2: saw Watson as a guy that could take the next

1167
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:31,399
Speaker 2: step this year because of how well things ended last year.

1168
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 1: Love has ten interceptions this year.

1169
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:37,360
Speaker 2: Five of them are when targeting Watson, and you're seeing

1170
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 2: almost every week where they just not on the same page.

1171
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:42,240
Speaker 1: Well Watson, it wasn't.

1172
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:44,319
Speaker 3: It was a tough throw to try to attempt, but

1173
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:49,360
Speaker 3: Love's first interception went off Watson's hands in the end zone.

1174
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:52,120
Speaker 3: It would have been a great catch, but ultimately it

1175
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,279
Speaker 3: was a pretty good throw. He got it to Watson's hand,

1176
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,879
Speaker 3: it got deflected. That was one of the reasons they lost.

1177
00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 3: I thought this was I would have to watch it

1178
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,560
Speaker 3: even closer, but I think this was Love's best game

1179
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 3: of the season. They said they wanted to see more

1180
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:07,200
Speaker 3: out of them. A third and seven play, touchdown, third

1181
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:11,440
Speaker 3: and sixteen play, touchdown, fourth and six play. U picked

1182
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 3: it up with the pass that they went. It was

1183
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,319
Speaker 3: very A third and seven play late in the game

1184
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,640
Speaker 3: forty six yards, third and ten play late in the

1185
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,399
Speaker 3: game thirty two yards, and the two interceptions. You could

1186
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 3: almost understand you know, you hate the end the game

1187
00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 3: that way, but one hit Watson's hands.

1188
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,839
Speaker 1: One was kind of at the very end. I thought

1189
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 1: he showed some progress. All right, let's keep moving here.

1190
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:31,879
Speaker 2: The Niners went into their by with a bad taste

1191
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:33,839
Speaker 2: in their mouth, a three game losing streak. Who saw

1192
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 2: Dak coming? And they go to Jacksonville to face the Jaguars,

1193
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,560
Speaker 2: who were on a winning streak. Would the losing streak continue?

1194
00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 2: Not even close?

1195
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:46,239
Speaker 1: Chucking down one a play called losing streak, a five

1196
00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 1: step drop Jack's winning streak. Oh he's gone touchdown.

1197
00:54:53,360 --> 00:55:01,600
Speaker 7: Oh he's strutting, said Fred six level killed the beast

1198
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:04,240
Speaker 7: on a wheel route and George Kittle's wheels.

1199
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 1: There is nothing wrong with him.

1200
00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 2: They feed they know, Yeah, that is great, keep feeding

1201
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,600
Speaker 2: the beast. They don't do that really with Kittle. Typically

1202
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 2: he only gets a few opportunities in this offense to

1203
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,680
Speaker 2: make an impact most weeks, and.

1204
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,319
Speaker 1: He always seems to Greg popping Tim Ryan with the

1205
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 1: call rock Purdy.

1206
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:28,120
Speaker 2: Okay, there's another theme Greg that can go by the wayside.

1207
00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:31,320
Speaker 2: Because he played great on Sunday, throwing three touchdown passes,

1208
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 2: including that sixty six yarder to George Kittle and the

1209
00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:37,520
Speaker 2: Niners snap that three game losing skin with a thirty

1210
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:40,920
Speaker 2: four three beat down of the Jags, who deliver a

1211
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:42,760
Speaker 2: comprehensive stinker.

1212
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 1: To end their winning streak at five games. Greg, you

1213
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:47,400
Speaker 1: won't hear any talk.

1214
00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:50,120
Speaker 2: About what's wrong with Brock this week, all of a sudden,

1215
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:51,400
Speaker 2: all is well with the Niners.

1216
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:52,880
Speaker 1: No, you won't hear that.

1217
00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:56,280
Speaker 3: I'm torn which side to start on because both sides

1218
00:55:56,320 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 3: dominated so thoroughly. Let's start with Brock, and I think

1219
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 3: he played outstanding. But I also think we knew the

1220
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 3: forty nine ers are back early when they were running

1221
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:08,080
Speaker 3: the ball well. This is against one of the best

1222
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,920
Speaker 3: run defenses in the league. On paper, maybe we overrated

1223
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:15,000
Speaker 3: the Jaguars defense, but the numbers were great. CMC gets

1224
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 3: one hundred and forty two from scrimmage. The forty nine

1225
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:20,800
Speaker 3: ers run for one hundred and forty four. Perdy was

1226
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 3: throwing the ball well right off the bat, but they

1227
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:26,919
Speaker 3: were in good down and distance situations. I think Trent

1228
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:31,520
Speaker 3: Williams being back was huge, like he was particularly blowing

1229
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,560
Speaker 3: open huge holes. He did it, I believe. On the

1230
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,840
Speaker 3: Deebo Samuel touchdown as well. Debo had a rushing touchdown

1231
00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 3: so part of it was just like they're healthier. Drake

1232
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,680
Speaker 3: Greenlaw looked a lot healthier than he has at earlier

1233
00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 3: points of the scene. But when they can run, it

1234
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,479
Speaker 3: all makes sense. And there was like two plays where

1235
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,319
Speaker 3: Perdy did kind of what I'm talking about, where it's like,

1236
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:53,319
Speaker 3: I think he's been the same guy all along, and

1237
00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 3: like sometimes his crazy plays work, sometimes they don't. His

1238
00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,120
Speaker 3: first touchdown was a wild throw and it was a

1239
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 3: really good throw to Auk but it was into like

1240
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 3: double coverage in the end zone and he hit it.

1241
00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 3: That touchdown to Kittle, I think was an underratedly great throw. Yeah,

1242
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:11,799
Speaker 3: Kittle like got open late, but Perdy just stood in

1243
00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:14,000
Speaker 3: there and took a hit. And if it was just

1244
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 3: like a half second earlier, it's like that hand hits

1245
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,040
Speaker 3: his arm, it flies up, it's an interception, so he

1246
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:20,760
Speaker 3: can take risk. But I actually think he played a

1247
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 3: little safer other than those plays for the rest of

1248
00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 3: the game, and they just looked freaking amazing. I mean,

1249
00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:27,200
Speaker 3: they look like the best team in the NFL.

1250
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:30,440
Speaker 2: Again, I think one of the things working against Perdy

1251
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:33,640
Speaker 2: beyond just this overall, Oh he was mister irrelevant blah

1252
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:36,360
Speaker 2: blah blah, is he doesn't have great arm talent in

1253
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 2: terms of strength, so it doesn't come out of his

1254
00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 2: hand like some of the guys that have, you.

1255
00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 1: Know, Howitzers to use that.

1256
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 2: Adjective that's been thrown around for decades in our league,

1257
00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:49,280
Speaker 2: which is a very large gun.

1258
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:51,959
Speaker 3: Greg, it's kind of funny, I get old, like World

1259
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:55,080
Speaker 3: War Two, Like, I mean, there's you could write a

1260
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:59,960
Speaker 3: term paper on the war. Like lexicon in football, there's

1261
00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:00,720
Speaker 3: there's a.

1262
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:02,480
Speaker 2: Lot, right, because you could be a basic and say, oh,

1263
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 2: he's got a canon for an arm right, But.

1264
00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:06,120
Speaker 1: If you say Howitzer, it's like, oh, that gout, Now

1265
00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 1: that's a man. That's just the way this country is. Anyway.

1266
00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,920
Speaker 1: On the other side of the ball, yes, we should

1267
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:15,320
Speaker 1: get there too, the Jaguars.

1268
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 2: And here's something very rarely happens for me, But got

1269
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:23,080
Speaker 2: this one wrong, Greg, I really thought this was a

1270
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:24,760
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence big step forward year.

1271
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 1: I thought I had him as a dark horse for MVP.

1272
00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:30,240
Speaker 2: And I'm not putting all of their issues on Lawrence,

1273
00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:33,560
Speaker 2: but the Jacksonville offense, even during that five game winning streak,

1274
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 2: you're just not seeing that big step forward. And this

1275
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:40,520
Speaker 2: was obviously a flame out at home against the big contender.

1276
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,919
Speaker 2: They have four turnovers and there just isn't enough consistency

1277
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 2: and really big plays in this offense.

1278
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:50,840
Speaker 3: Three turnovers from Trevor Lawrence, you know, individually, two picks

1279
00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 3: in a fumble Like the first half, I thought it

1280
00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 3: was you know, it was thirteen three at half time,

1281
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,840
Speaker 3: and I actually think that it was closer than the

1282
00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:02,480
Speaker 3: score indicated, but they were just making big mistakes. Lawrence

1283
00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:04,800
Speaker 3: then sort of collapsed in the second half, and you're

1284
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:09,120
Speaker 3: absolutely right, there's going to be a Trevor Lawrence. How

1285
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:11,720
Speaker 3: come he's not making the leap. He's been a little

1286
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:13,960
Speaker 3: bit part of the problem this season.

1287
00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:15,200
Speaker 1: Conversation this week.

1288
00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,120
Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm ready to go there yet,

1289
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 3: but he's not elevating everything around him like I think

1290
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 3: he avoids mistakes. Well for the most part, he didn't today,

1291
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:29,120
Speaker 3: but he hasn't been making enough special throws and today,

1292
00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,960
Speaker 3: especially like Nick Bosa and Chase Young, they combined for

1293
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,480
Speaker 3: a sack early in this one where Bosa just literally

1294
00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 3: just takes the ball away from laur like Lawrence, and

1295
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 3: that's what you know, they imagine when they traded for

1296
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 3: Chase Young. He was quiet otherwise, but the rest of

1297
00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:45,360
Speaker 3: the defensive line really ate. So I think it's a

1298
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 3: combination of things, as it often is. Their offensive line

1299
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,080
Speaker 3: for the Jaguars definitely lost that matchup.

1300
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:53,760
Speaker 2: Today, And it just it's expectations were so sky high

1301
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:56,600
Speaker 2: for Lawrence coming into the league that you expected at

1302
00:59:56,600 --> 00:59:58,600
Speaker 2: this point he would be in full flight, and yet

1303
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:00,600
Speaker 2: he's taken a bit of a step back. And I

1304
01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:02,760
Speaker 2: think it's just it also shows why sports are great

1305
01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:06,440
Speaker 2: that you had this matchup where the final pick of

1306
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:08,720
Speaker 2: the draft, Rock Party went against the first pick in

1307
01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:11,439
Speaker 2: the draft and Lawrence, and you saw the guy who's

1308
01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:14,960
Speaker 2: picked last easily outplay his.

1309
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:18,720
Speaker 1: Ill him a rival.

1310
01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,200
Speaker 3: Well, they weren't the same counterparts, weren't the same draft

1311
01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:24,440
Speaker 3: right now that I think about.

1312
01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:27,040
Speaker 1: It, Howard Serve Howitz, who comes.

1313
01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 3: I I just I think like two things could be

1314
01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:32,400
Speaker 3: true with people should not be like crushing Lawrence, but

1315
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:33,960
Speaker 3: we have people.

1316
01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:35,320
Speaker 1: Are ready to crush though, Like if he has one,

1317
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:36,440
Speaker 1: it's it's gonna be.

1318
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:38,240
Speaker 3: I can kind of think I can kind of see

1319
01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:40,800
Speaker 3: it out there. It's like I saw Richard Sherman was

1320
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:42,880
Speaker 3: talking about and I and I think what Richard Sherman

1321
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:45,240
Speaker 3: is saying is right, is that we were told he

1322
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 3: was generational, and to this point, on balance it hasn't

1323
01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:53,200
Speaker 3: been generational. But even this year, I would say he's

1324
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 3: been good. He's not the first thing. I just was

1325
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:58,720
Speaker 3: a little surprised that both their lines what were dominated.

1326
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:00,880
Speaker 3: It kind of reminds me of that even Seahawks game

1327
01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:04,680
Speaker 3: last week, where it's like, yes, Gno played bad in

1328
01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 3: that Seahawks Ravens game, but both lines were just so

1329
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:09,800
Speaker 3: dominant for the Ravens on both sides of the ball.

1330
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:11,800
Speaker 3: That's like, well, it's hard to really just talk about

1331
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 3: the quarterback, like the team was just so much better.

1332
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:15,800
Speaker 3: And that was the case. This was a measuring stick

1333
01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:18,480
Speaker 3: game in Jacksonville. They were talking about it and they

1334
01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 3: got whacked with that stick. Forty nine ers took that

1335
01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:24,000
Speaker 3: stick out and Nick Wesseling had a great lock here.

1336
01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 3: I would give them credit for that. This is this

1337
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:28,320
Speaker 3: was the game two lock, thirty four to three.

1338
01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:29,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is sane.

1339
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:31,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if the Nick's lost the lock in

1340
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:33,440
Speaker 2: quite a bit now, so the Zoo is starting to

1341
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:36,840
Speaker 2: feel itself led by Nick. I think he called himself

1342
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 2: the keeper, which.

1343
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:40,280
Speaker 1: Is I mean he lost branding.

1344
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 3: I still remember that Jets one maybe that was that

1345
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:44,680
Speaker 3: was the win that really turned the Zoo's season.

1346
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:48,360
Speaker 1: I mean, you should talk. You've been falling into locks

1347
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:50,240
Speaker 1: this season every week. Please none of it.

1348
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:53,000
Speaker 2: I was gonna lock this and then I accidentally locked that.

1349
01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:55,360
Speaker 2: It all worked out for me. How many times do

1350
01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:57,240
Speaker 2: I have to hear the same themes?

1351
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:01,520
Speaker 1: So my math is correct, it would be Greg at

1352
01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:02,080
Speaker 1: nine and one.

1353
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:05,919
Speaker 2: Now see I didn't ask either, But no, I'm saying,

1354
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:07,200
Speaker 2: because you're talking about the West Bros.

1355
01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:08,960
Speaker 1: They are I think that would put them two behind.

1356
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:13,200
Speaker 2: Okay, seven, I know, Dan, I'm sorry, but we don't

1357
01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:15,280
Speaker 2: need to dwell on my failure.

1358
01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:17,440
Speaker 1: You know, I'll just clip this together. We don't even

1359
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:18,240
Speaker 1: have to bring it up again.

1360
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,960
Speaker 2: We'll just neatly just clip this out in the edit

1361
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:22,760
Speaker 2: and no one will have ever heard it. All right,

1362
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:26,640
Speaker 2: let's keep moving, uh and head to the desert where

1363
01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:27,560
Speaker 2: Kyler Murray's back.

1364
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 1: How about that? Here we go.

1365
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 14: The snap's good, the balls down, the kick is up,

1366
01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:38,280
Speaker 14: and the kick is good, and the Cardinals win it.

1367
01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:42,760
Speaker 1: Twenty five twenty four. Now, welcome back Kyler.

1368
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:48,919
Speaker 14: Kyler Murray engineering but game winning drive and Arizona gets

1369
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:50,240
Speaker 14: its second win of the season.

1370
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:55,560
Speaker 1: It awesn't get any better than that. For Kyler Murray's return.

1371
01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:00,200
Speaker 1: I like that. That's like an actual human being, like

1372
01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:05,440
Speaker 1: go to the grocery store, but get me off a polarm.

1373
01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:08,840
Speaker 2: Like he lives his entire life talking like that, and

1374
01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:11,040
Speaker 2: everyone around him has to act like it's normal.

1375
01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:12,240
Speaker 1: Who is that Wolfley?

1376
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:12,600
Speaker 9: Oh?

1377
01:03:12,680 --> 01:03:16,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, which Wolfy? Because we got a rotten Ronnie wolf Yeah.

1378
01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:18,720
Speaker 1: They're actually surprised me today. I didn't notice making up

1379
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:20,360
Speaker 1: our little call sheet. There are quite a few.

1380
01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:22,560
Speaker 2: Wolf Lees in the Uh yeah, that's in the color

1381
01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:23,640
Speaker 2: commentary business.

1382
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:24,200
Speaker 1: I think.

1383
01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:27,240
Speaker 2: See, because we automatically say, oh, game winning field goal,

1384
01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:28,360
Speaker 2: let's use that as a highlight.

1385
01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:29,360
Speaker 1: We should have went with.

1386
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 2: Some Kyler magic there, because who wants to watch a

1387
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,520
Speaker 2: twenty three yarder in any capacity?

1388
01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:37,800
Speaker 1: Matt Prater's still getting it done. Big time production meeting

1389
01:03:37,840 --> 01:03:42,040
Speaker 1: after the show today. Here we got one Eric Roberts

1390

1391
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:45,040
Speaker 1: to me.

1392
01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 14: Funk shotgun snap. Murray backs up to fifty Yeah, near side.

1393
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:54,080
Speaker 5: It is undercrof homa bang at the ten yard line

1394
01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:57,160
Speaker 5: by McBride. He gets up to run and he's tackled

1395
01:03:57,160 --> 01:04:00,960
Speaker 5: at the nines McBride the first Cardinal tie in thirty

1396
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,160
Speaker 5: four years with a one hundred yard receiving game and

1397
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 5: the Cardinals goal we need will flee uh ooh on

1398
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,000
Speaker 5: lock time one quarter pound of swets.

1399
01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:18,040
Speaker 1: That was good. I like that.

1400
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,440
Speaker 2: Kyler Murray threw for two hundred and forty nine yards,

1401
01:04:20,920 --> 01:04:23,920
Speaker 2: including that big tight end hookup to set up the

1402
01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:27,840
Speaker 2: game winner by Matt Prater. Kyle also ran for a

1403
01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:31,640
Speaker 2: touchdown in his return from reconstructive knee surgery, and the

1404
01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:35,440
Speaker 2: Cards snap a six game losing streak, edging the Falcons

1405
01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:39,600
Speaker 2: twenty five to twenty three. GREGI watching the highlights here

1406
01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 2: reminded me how much I missed. I didn't think I

1407
01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:44,840
Speaker 2: would feel this way because he's never been my favorite player,

1408
01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:48,000
Speaker 2: But I miss seeing Kyler Murray, those tiny legs and

1409
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 2: a China helmet, just wreaking havoc on the second level

1410
01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:52,400
Speaker 2: of defenses.

1411
01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:56,680
Speaker 3: I know I was gassing Kyler up on Twitter today

1412
01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:58,920
Speaker 3: and so many of the responses are just like, he

1413
01:04:59,000 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 3: looks so small out.

1414
01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:02,240
Speaker 1: I think people just like weren't youth. They forgot not

1415
01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:04,160
Speaker 1: seeing them. And it's the helmet.

1416
01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:06,760
Speaker 2: The helmet, really, it's seven times the size of a

1417
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:08,320
Speaker 2: standard a helmet in the league.

1418
01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:12,000
Speaker 3: But he's a legit, you know, top ten talent at

1419
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,240
Speaker 3: quarterback and I would say a borderline just top ten

1420
01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:18,000
Speaker 3: quarterback period. And it was really exciting because he was

1421
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:20,720
Speaker 3: just back. There was like maybe there will be rest

1422
01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:23,840
Speaker 3: in future weeks. But he did the things that Kyler did,

1423
01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:26,280
Speaker 3: like that throw to McBride not a great throw, but

1424
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:28,840
Speaker 3: the decision was awesome that they he decided to be

1425
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:31,200
Speaker 3: so aggressive in that spot. He saw the matchup that

1426
01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:33,520
Speaker 3: he liked, he went for it, and I think he

1427
01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:36,120
Speaker 3: made really good decisions throughout the game, so that that

1428
01:05:36,200 --> 01:05:38,400
Speaker 3: might be a good sign moving forward for this offense.

1429
01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:40,560
Speaker 3: Drew Petsick, who did such a nice job with Dobbs

1430
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:43,000
Speaker 3: that like it's gonna be a match like the offense

1431
01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:44,280
Speaker 3: made sense, they moved the ball.

1432
01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:45,720
Speaker 1: I thought they looked like the better team.

1433
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:49,520
Speaker 3: And he also had a thirteen yard scramble during that

1434
01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:51,320
Speaker 3: game winning drive to keep it alive, and to me,

1435
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:53,600
Speaker 3: that was you know, the play of the game where

1436
01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:57,720
Speaker 3: Murray traveled sixty eight point nine yards on that scramble.

1437
01:05:57,760 --> 01:06:01,680
Speaker 3: He essentially ran back thirty yards then ran forward about

1438
01:06:01,720 --> 01:06:04,160
Speaker 3: forty and he had a top speed and.

1439
01:06:04,120 --> 01:06:05,760
Speaker 1: It's not going to get to what do you like?

1440
01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 1: You wantant it? Well, it's everybody's twenty one. I want twenty.

1441
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:09,840
Speaker 3: I mean he'd even got close to that. He only

1442
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 3: got to twenty point one seven.

1443
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:14,240
Speaker 1: But it was his Skyler. This is Kyler. We actually

1444
01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:16,080
Speaker 1: have the sound of that play. Let's go to it.

1445
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:20,920
Speaker 1: We got all this sound. Fake me out.

1446
01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:24,760
Speaker 3: I mean right after I did my NFL Plus segment

1447
01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 3: on the short Kings of twenty twenty three.

1448
01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:28,360
Speaker 1: It's a trend.

1449
01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:30,600
Speaker 3: It's his fastest speed though since twenty twenty one, so

1450
01:06:30,640 --> 01:06:32,960
Speaker 3: faster than anything you did actually, so it kind of

1451
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 3: showed he looked like he had juice and he looked

1452
01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:36,040
Speaker 3: like a good quarterback today.

1453
01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:40,000
Speaker 2: And Jonathan Gannon, you know, had a conversation with Kyler

1454
01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:42,280
Speaker 2: Murray before the end. Because the Cardinals, who are a

1455
01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:45,160
Speaker 2: team obviously in big time transition trying to figure out

1456
01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:48,640
Speaker 2: their future, they did have the option of keeping him

1457
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:52,280
Speaker 2: out of play this season and protecting themselves financially. They

1458
01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:56,280
Speaker 2: instead decide to get a look at Kyler, and apparently

1459
01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:59,120
Speaker 2: they're going to give him very little in terms of restrictions.

1460
01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:00,440
Speaker 1: Here's a again after the.

1461
01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:05,720
Speaker 7: Game before this week about I think tempering what we

1462
01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:07,200
Speaker 7: said from Kyler when we.

1463
01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 1: Saw that out there to day. Did he surprise you

1464
01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:10,160
Speaker 1: at all?

1465
01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 10: Or maybe that's why he laughed at me.

1466
01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:18,760
Speaker 3: Kyler Murray does not lack for confidence, and I get

1467
01:07:18,760 --> 01:07:20,960
Speaker 3: that that. The Gannon was almost saying, maybe you should

1468
01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:24,040
Speaker 3: temper your expectations. Kyler like, let's not, you know, get

1469
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:26,080
Speaker 3: carried away, and he was just like laughing. He's like,

1470
01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:28,840
Speaker 3: come on, man, I'm Kyler Murray. I'm no Desmon rhddor

1471
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:29,439
Speaker 3: I'm no Taylor.

1472
01:07:29,840 --> 01:07:32,600
Speaker 2: What happened with the Falcons in this game? Heinikey no,

1473
01:07:32,720 --> 01:07:34,360
Speaker 2: tell me Don riders back in my life?

1474
01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:34,840
Speaker 1: He is.

1475
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:37,560
Speaker 3: I think he's going to be the quarterback after the

1476
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:42,680
Speaker 3: bye week because heinike and the Falcons averaged one point

1477
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:46,760
Speaker 3: five yards per drop back, one point five under four

1478
01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:49,120
Speaker 3: yards per attempt. When Heinecke actually threw the ball, and

1479
01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:51,040
Speaker 3: it was very ridder like he was just holding onto

1480
01:07:51,040 --> 01:07:54,240
Speaker 3: the ball forever. They couldn't do anything throwing the ball,

1481
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:57,240
Speaker 3: and it wasted a very nice Bajon Robinson game where

1482
01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:59,480
Speaker 3: he goes over one hundred yards. They gave the football

1483
01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:01,840
Speaker 3: yes and gets a touchdown. They did what everyone asked.

1484
01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:04,120
Speaker 3: They used him in the red zone and they in

1485
01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:06,080
Speaker 3: Heineke had a couple of runs. They ran the ball well,

1486
01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 3: I think they got what one hundred and eighty four

1487
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:11,480
Speaker 3: yards on the ground, and yet Heinik couldn't do anything

1488
01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 3: throwing the ball, and then he heard his hamstring and

1489
01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:17,840
Speaker 3: he went out. Ridder comes in and Ritter didn't do much,

1490
01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:21,920
Speaker 3: but he didn't do anything negatively, and he did run

1491
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:25,760
Speaker 3: for a game winning touchdown if the defense had just

1492
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,679
Speaker 3: held onto it. They had a seventy four yard fourth

1493
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 3: quarter drive to take the lead when they were down

1494
01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:34,880
Speaker 3: five points. And to me, I think Arthur Smith's probably

1495
01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:37,280
Speaker 3: just looking for an excuse to put Ridder back in anyways,

1496
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 3: and he said he wanted to take the buy and

1497
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:39,839
Speaker 3: then make decision.

1498
01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:42,320
Speaker 1: Heinez go. Who knows how long he might be out

1499
01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:44,960
Speaker 1: anyways with the hamstring injury. So I think it's back.

1500
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:48,639
Speaker 2: And if Heinike could be frustrated. But if you throw

1501
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:51,880
Speaker 2: for fifty five yards and three quarters before getting hurt,

1502
01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:56,000
Speaker 2: you leave yourself vulnerable to lose that gig. All right,

1503
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:57,840
Speaker 2: let's take a break here and then we'll finish up.

1504
01:08:59,280 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 1: All right.

1505
01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:02,519
Speaker 2: You may remember the first Sunday night football game of

1506
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:05,280
Speaker 2: the year. It was a disaster for the Giants forty

1507
01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:07,519
Speaker 2: to nothing the loss to the Cowboys, and it was

1508
01:09:07,560 --> 01:09:10,759
Speaker 2: a sign of things to come. The rematch with Tommy

1509
01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:13,719
Speaker 2: DeVito behind center, it wasn't much better.

1510
01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:17,920
Speaker 8: Second and ten back to throw, Tyron Smith locks a guy.

1511
01:09:17,800 --> 01:09:18,960
Speaker 1: Up right side of the end zone.

1512
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:26,400
Speaker 8: Lamb, Hello CD touchdown Ceedee Lamb. Lamb now has a

1513
01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 8: touchdown rushing and a touchdown receiving, and Aubrey will line

1514
01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:33,360
Speaker 8: up for the extra point that would make it forty

1515
01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:34,160
Speaker 8: two to seven.

1516
01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:38,120
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, bra had sham the sham got friend

1517
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:41,320
Speaker 2: of the Show. Amazing Greg, which is one pep talk

1518
01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:45,720
Speaker 2: from tugboat. Then for ceedee Lamb, you take that press.

1519
01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:48,080
Speaker 2: He has been the best wide receiver in the league

1520
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:49,720
Speaker 2: for three weeks now.

1521
01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,800
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe you're a little too harsh on you know.

1522
01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:57,840
Speaker 2: You go look at look how it's different now, Look

1523
01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:01,600
Speaker 2: at the difference the ends zones being found. He is

1524
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:04,280
Speaker 2: in the middle of everything and the Cowboys are humming.

1525
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:07,320
Speaker 2: Dak Prescott through for four hundred and four yards and

1526
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:09,400
Speaker 2: four touchdowns. He ran for another score. This is one

1527
01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:12,160
Speaker 2: of the greatest stack games you'll see. And I know

1528
01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:14,519
Speaker 2: it's against the Giants, but I'm just saying it is.

1529
01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:18,800
Speaker 2: It was just taking candy from a baby. Cowboys rout

1530
01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:22,519
Speaker 2: the Giants for the second time this season, forty nine

1531
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:25,400
Speaker 2: to seventeen. The home winning streak for the Cowboys quietly

1532
01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:27,960
Speaker 2: is up to twelve games. And I'm gonna do some

1533
01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:36,080
Speaker 2: quick math here. Nine forty eighty nine to seventeen seventy

1534
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:39,800
Speaker 2: two point margin, the largest in the sweep of an

1535
01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:45,080
Speaker 2: NFC East opponent ever for the Cowboys. So yeah, if

1536
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:47,640
Speaker 2: they could play the Giants every week, they would be

1537
01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:48,559
Speaker 2: the greatest team ever.

1538
01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:49,439
Speaker 1: As it was.

1539
01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:52,800
Speaker 2: As it is, they're six and three, Greg and a

1540
01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:55,000
Speaker 2: couple bumps in the road, of course, but man, when

1541
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:56,880
Speaker 2: this team is in full flight, they are fun to watch.

1542
01:10:56,920 --> 01:10:58,559
Speaker 3: Well, just box score like. And there was a couple

1543
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:00,200
Speaker 3: of numbers that I was like, is this number right?

1544
01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:01,800
Speaker 3: First of all, you just said it six and three?

1545
01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:03,519
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, yeah, the Cowboys are only six

1546
01:11:03,560 --> 01:11:05,800
Speaker 3: and three. Why does it feel like they're better than that?

1547
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:06,160
Speaker 1: Right?

1548
01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:09,120
Speaker 3: They have the same record as the Pittsburgh Steelers and

1549
01:11:09,160 --> 01:11:11,400
Speaker 3: the Seahawks, so that it doesn't quite compute.

1550
01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:13,439
Speaker 2: I think the Cowboys had more total yards in this

1551
01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:15,400
Speaker 2: game of the Steelers have had all year, So.

1552
01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:18,200
Speaker 3: Right, The other number is six hundred and forty yards

1553
01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:19,639
Speaker 3: right thirty two first downs.

1554
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:20,639
Speaker 1: At one point in this game.

1555
01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:23,559
Speaker 2: The six forty twelve yards shy of the franchise record

1556
01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:24,400
Speaker 2: greg today.

1557
01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:24,840
Speaker 1: That is crazy.

1558
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:26,360
Speaker 3: At one point in this game was three hundred and

1559
01:11:26,360 --> 01:11:28,519
Speaker 3: sixty eight yards to twenty seven. So there was the

1560
01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:30,160
Speaker 3: proverbial lipstick on a pick.

1561
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:32,160
Speaker 1: Dak got ye.

1562
01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:34,280
Speaker 3: I know it was against the Giants, but he's been

1563
01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:36,439
Speaker 3: fantastic for four weeks. I don't know if you can

1564
01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,479
Speaker 3: keep this up the rest of the way, but for

1565
01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:41,840
Speaker 3: four weeks, nine point three yards per attempt, twelve touchdowns,

1566
01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:45,000
Speaker 3: I think he's been the best quarterback in the league

1567
01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 3: for those four weeks.

1568
01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:47,559
Speaker 2: I was going to say, I think for those four

1569
01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:50,479
Speaker 2: weeks in a wide open year, in this particular race,

1570
01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:54,120
Speaker 2: I think he is in the capital T capital C

1571
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:57,599
Speaker 2: convo for the MVP now because his numbers are starting

1572
01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:00,600
Speaker 2: to really get inflated. He's playing for a team that

1573
01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:04,040
Speaker 2: is fighting for a division. It's the Cowboys, and I

1574
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:06,320
Speaker 2: think he really has a chance here. And he saw

1575
01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 2: some things and again you just don't want to get

1576
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:13,040
Speaker 2: too crazy about it, because the Giants are they're moribund.

1577
01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:14,800
Speaker 3: We know that this is this is they're the worst

1578
01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:17,160
Speaker 3: team in the NFL. I guess the Panthers are close, but.

1579
01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:20,320
Speaker 2: Now with you have Tommy DeVito at quarterback in addition

1580
01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 2: to all their other issues. And yes, I agree they

1581
01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:27,960
Speaker 2: are the worst team in football. But they got big games,

1582
01:12:28,360 --> 01:12:31,160
Speaker 2: yes from Ceedee Lamb who was a monster eleven for

1583
01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:34,439
Speaker 2: one point fifty one, but Brandon Cooks came to life.

1584
01:12:34,600 --> 01:12:36,760
Speaker 1: They've been waiting all season for Brandon.

1585
01:12:36,479 --> 01:12:38,839
Speaker 2: Cooks to be that guy that gives their offense balance

1586
01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:41,000
Speaker 2: and somebody that could take the top off nine for

1587
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:44,280
Speaker 2: one seventy three and a touch on ten targets. Michael

1588
01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:46,639
Speaker 2: Gallup even got in the mix of two touchdown catches

1589
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:47,200
Speaker 2: in this game.

1590
01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:48,880
Speaker 1: Jake Ferguson continues to.

1591
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:51,800
Speaker 2: Flash as a real guy at tight end and someone

1592
01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:54,519
Speaker 2: that they can continue to build around. They're still waiting

1593
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:57,800
Speaker 2: for Tony Pollard to come around, and that's starting to

1594
01:12:57,840 --> 01:13:00,519
Speaker 2: become a real issue, I think for this team, because

1595
01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:03,439
Speaker 2: even in this bloodbath where they nearly set the franchise record,

1596
01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:07,760
Speaker 2: he's averaging three point seven yards per carry, ric O'Donnell

1597
01:13:08,080 --> 01:13:10,360
Speaker 2: outgained him. At a certain point, they might have to

1598
01:13:10,400 --> 01:13:13,080
Speaker 2: start looking at a timeshare with Pollard to try to

1599
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:14,000
Speaker 2: see if maybe there's a.

1600
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 1: Way to unlock him. But that's a minor quibble.

1601
01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 2: Everything else here tells you that the Cowboys have all

1602
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:22,639
Speaker 2: the pieces to continue to build on this Texas Coast offense.

1603
01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:25,080
Speaker 3: I think the last two weeks and the sham God

1604
01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:27,639
Speaker 3: pointed out in that highlight cost showsway he's so good

1605
01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:31,960
Speaker 3: that Tyron Smith locking down whoever was rushing the passer.

1606
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,280
Speaker 3: The Giants defensive line has kind of fallen apart late

1607
01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:36,960
Speaker 3: for the last two weeks after being good. Tyron Smith

1608
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:41,240
Speaker 3: and Tyler Smith next to each other the last two weeks,

1609
01:13:41,320 --> 01:13:45,560
Speaker 3: especially like two weeks ago they were outstanding against Philadelphia

1610
01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:48,080
Speaker 3: and Tyron Smith has been struggling with injuries. If they

1611
01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:50,240
Speaker 3: get him back to being I'm not saying like Hall

1612
01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:53,320
Speaker 3: of Fame caliber Tyron Smith, but back to close to

1613
01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:55,439
Speaker 3: what he can be, and then Tyler Smith to me

1614
01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:57,559
Speaker 3: is one of the best young offensive linemen in the

1615
01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:00,880
Speaker 3: entire league. Those two guys next to each other on

1616
01:14:00,960 --> 01:14:03,080
Speaker 3: the left side, like you can build. They got a

1617
01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:05,200
Speaker 3: lot to build around on offense. But that's another huge

1618
01:14:05,240 --> 01:14:08,840
Speaker 3: sort of weapon that they got this Giboys team.

1619
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:11,639
Speaker 2: No, you kind of you want to see that next

1620
01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:14,720
Speaker 2: big test for him, you know, like you want to

1621
01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:17,719
Speaker 2: see how they rise in that situation, and the Giants

1622
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:18,280
Speaker 2: just want to wait.

1623
01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:19,960
Speaker 1: They just want the season to be over.

1624
01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:23,920
Speaker 2: They are very much in play for the top quarterback

1625
01:14:23,960 --> 01:14:24,759
Speaker 2: in the draft class.

1626
01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:30,320
Speaker 1: So I kind of look into this one, jerks. But

1627
01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:32,320
Speaker 1: what you know, what you just got, we'll see, we'll

1628
01:14:32,320 --> 01:14:33,120
Speaker 1: get to it.

1629
01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:35,679
Speaker 3: But I am tracking tankathon and there is a big

1630
01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,920
Speaker 3: Giants Patriots game coming up next to next week.

1631
01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:42,240
Speaker 1: You know, Bill doesn't want to lose to the Giants. Well,

1632
01:14:42,320 --> 01:14:44,960
Speaker 1: neither team I think is trying to lose, that's for sure.

1633
01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:48,000
Speaker 2: But all right, well, last one before Sunday Night football,

1634
01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:51,479
Speaker 2: Let's head to Germany where the international series came to end.

1635
01:14:51,479 --> 01:14:55,040
Speaker 2: It was the I believe fiftieth international game for the NFL,

1636
01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:59,599
Speaker 2: so they celebrated by sending mac Jones to the people

1637
01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:00,160
Speaker 2: of Europe.

1638
01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:02,840
Speaker 1: Fourth and one converse with the Patriots. The clock is

1639
01:15:02,880 --> 01:15:05,599
Speaker 1: moving on them though they're out of timeouts, and Zappi

1640
01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:08,679
Speaker 1: fakes He fakes a Crockyeld the goalie fined.

1641
01:15:08,560 --> 01:15:12,080
Speaker 12: To that field, picked off by the Colts in by.

1642
01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:14,000
Speaker 1: Rodney Thomas Payley.

1643
01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:15,360
Speaker 10: Zappe trying to get two.

1644
01:15:15,520 --> 01:15:16,800
Speaker 14: He faked bought in the ball.

1645
01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:19,759
Speaker 1: He's trying to catch the Colt off guard and feel

1646
01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:23,560
Speaker 1: laser over the middle, but it was picked off and snatched.

1647
01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:25,120
Speaker 2: Up by Rodney Thomas.

1648
01:15:25,360 --> 01:15:28,400
Speaker 5: Yes, sir, the Colts will take that thirty.

1649
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:30,840
Speaker 1: One seconds to go and the Colts and Germany are

1650
01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:32,120
Speaker 1: gonna be victorious.

1651
01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:35,680
Speaker 2: Matt Taylor with a very enthusiastic call, Hey, you got

1652
01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:36,719
Speaker 2: a free trip to Germany.

1653
01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:39,240
Speaker 1: Who wasn't a beautiful game, but he.

1654
01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 3: Got to call a win for a five and five team.

1655
01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:46,479
Speaker 2: For a five and five Colts team, who uh get

1656
01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:51,320
Speaker 2: there with a ten to six win on over the Patriots.

1657
01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:55,280
Speaker 2: A Patriots team that has all sorts of quarterback questions

1658
01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:59,240
Speaker 2: coming out of this game. That was Bailly Zappi uh

1659
01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:01,800
Speaker 2: throwing a fake spike interception.

1660
01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:03,559
Speaker 1: I don't know what was the funniest thing about.

1661
01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:05,840
Speaker 2: It, the fact that he tried the fake spike or

1662
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:11,040
Speaker 2: that he didn't recognize that nobody noticed that he really

1663
01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:13,640
Speaker 2: did it, so everyone in the secondary was in full coverage.

1664
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:15,920
Speaker 2: And then he throws a balloon ball over the middle

1665
01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:19,439
Speaker 2: that never had any chance. And the reason he was

1666
01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:23,639
Speaker 2: in greg was because mac Jones struggled mightily and threw

1667
01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:27,320
Speaker 2: maybe the worst pass of his career in the previous

1668
01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:30,479
Speaker 2: possession on what should have been a touchdown. Instead it

1669
01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:34,320
Speaker 2: was an interception, and Belichick is so mad and frustrated

1670
01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:37,560
Speaker 2: he benches his quarterback with one series.

1671
01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:39,000
Speaker 1: To go with one series. I don't know if I've

1672
01:16:39,040 --> 01:16:40,519
Speaker 1: ever seen that. I haven't.

1673
01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:43,080
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure it's happened, and maybe I've even

1674
01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:46,360
Speaker 3: seen it, but I cannot remember a quarterback being benched

1675
01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:50,000
Speaker 3: for essentially a two minute drive to win the game.

1676
01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:53,479
Speaker 3: It's crazy, But you don't blame I don't blame him

1677
01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:56,200
Speaker 3: at all. As bad as Bailey Zappi has looked in

1678
01:16:56,880 --> 01:17:00,439
Speaker 3: brief work this year, including the preseason, Mac Jones has

1679
01:17:00,479 --> 01:17:03,439
Speaker 3: just been too much for him. And the offensive line

1680
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:05,840
Speaker 3: was terrible pass protecting early in this game.

1681
01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:07,439
Speaker 1: I get it, that's part of it.

1682
01:17:07,640 --> 01:17:11,200
Speaker 3: You know they were without Trent Brown, but he just

1683
01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:14,920
Speaker 3: crumbled a handful of times this season where just like

1684
01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:18,120
Speaker 3: it all just became too much for him. And when

1685
01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:21,799
Speaker 3: you're short arming like a wide open Goseki the interception

1686
01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:24,920
Speaker 3: that you're talking about, when you're skying a throw that

1687
01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:26,840
Speaker 3: that could also could have been a touchdown pass their

1688
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:28,320
Speaker 3: hunter Henry, they.

1689
01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:29,280
Speaker 1: Actually moved the ball well.

1690
01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:31,200
Speaker 3: They had three hundred and forty yards in this game

1691
01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:33,960
Speaker 3: on of the It's weirdly one of their better offensive

1692
01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:36,519
Speaker 3: games of the year. I would say, and they and

1693
01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:40,000
Speaker 3: they well just because other things like I'm just saying

1694
01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:42,599
Speaker 3: that they ran for one sixty seven, so they were

1695
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:43,719
Speaker 3: actually doing something.

1696
01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:45,160
Speaker 1: They were moving the ball.

1697
01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:48,280
Speaker 3: They looked like the better offense on the day despite

1698
01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:50,120
Speaker 3: their quarterback not being able to do anything.

1699
01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:53,639
Speaker 1: But Mac Jones is just like too much for him

1700
01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:54,519
Speaker 1: and they had to take him out.

1701
01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:57,280
Speaker 2: Here's Belichick after thing. You would think with a buy

1702
01:17:57,439 --> 01:18:02,479
Speaker 2: coming up the way that game ended that it might

1703
01:18:02,520 --> 01:18:05,160
Speaker 2: finally be Mac Jones running out of lives here.

1704
01:18:05,479 --> 01:18:07,200
Speaker 1: But here's what Belichick said after the game.

1705
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:10,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, look, I made a decision.

1706
01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:11,479
Speaker 1: That's what it was.

1707
01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:13,080
Speaker 10: We'll do it next week.

1708
01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:16,240
Speaker 1: Next week. Do you still have Jones quarterback?

1709
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:18,200
Speaker 3: Fifth and order players?

1710
01:18:18,439 --> 01:18:20,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Bill of course isn't going to say

1711
01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:25,679
Speaker 2: anything because he never says anything, but that benching Jones

1712
01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:29,160
Speaker 2: in that way that tells you everything you need to know.

1713
01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:32,840
Speaker 2: And we'll see what happens next for the Patriots. But

1714
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:36,240
Speaker 2: they are now two and seven, and it will only

1715
01:18:36,280 --> 01:18:40,280
Speaker 2: continue to amplify the talk about not just Mac Jones

1716
01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:43,479
Speaker 2: in the quarterback position. But Bill Belichick and what his

1717
01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:46,439
Speaker 2: future holds with the team. This is another in a

1718
01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:50,040
Speaker 2: you know, a big spotlight game for the organization. It's

1719
01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:54,920
Speaker 2: you know, me, Greg, I live for Patriots suffering after

1720
01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:57,679
Speaker 2: all the years of me suffering and everyone else suffering.

1721
01:18:58,400 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 1: But it is gotten to the.

1722
01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:02,160
Speaker 2: Point where when they were showing those cuts to Robert

1723
01:19:02,200 --> 01:19:06,920
Speaker 2: Craft in his luxury suite and he was looking crestfallen

1724
01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:10,599
Speaker 2: and increasingly frustrated, where it's not really surprising anymore because

1725
01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:13,160
Speaker 2: this just feels like this is now what the Patriots

1726
01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:16,280
Speaker 2: experience is, and all that stuff, all the many years

1727
01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:18,280
Speaker 2: of greatness feel like they're already kind of far in

1728
01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:20,560
Speaker 2: the rear view because they've had so many troubles in

1729
01:19:20,560 --> 01:19:21,559
Speaker 2: the last couple of years.

1730
01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:25,160
Speaker 1: Craft really wanted this game. He made it clear.

1731
01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:28,160
Speaker 3: He said it publicly, I think he said it privately.

1732
01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:31,200
Speaker 3: He said he wanted this game to be a reset

1733
01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:34,000
Speaker 3: because this season's been so disappointing, like he hadn't given

1734
01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:36,479
Speaker 3: up hope and they've been pushing to be the Germany

1735
01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:38,960
Speaker 3: team for a long time. They wanted to do this game.

1736
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:41,200
Speaker 3: They've been working on it for a long time. And

1737
01:19:41,200 --> 01:19:44,719
Speaker 3: then you know, Sebastian Vohmer's on the call in Germany.

1738
01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:48,040
Speaker 3: He's a big, big podcaster over there. We're working for

1739
01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:52,200
Speaker 3: our buddy. I hands some hank And they have this

1740
01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:57,000
Speaker 3: game which is the absolute bottom. In the same game

1741
01:19:57,000 --> 01:19:59,080
Speaker 3: that they left J. C. Jackson home, remember that one.

1742
01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:05,200
Speaker 3: Jack Jones was mysteriously benched for the first quarter plus again.

1743
01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:09,559
Speaker 3: They asked mac Jones after the game why they didn't

1744
01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:11,800
Speaker 3: throw a hail Mary on the final play of the

1745
01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:14,479
Speaker 3: first half, which was very curious. Instead, they had their

1746
01:20:14,479 --> 01:20:17,200
Speaker 3: biggest offensive play of the game, Toda Mario Douglas, and

1747
01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:20,680
Speaker 3: he said, that's a good question, no clue, which is

1748
01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:22,160
Speaker 3: like I said that Mac Jones.

1749
01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:25,280
Speaker 1: So he threw a wide receiver screen with no trickeration.

1750
01:20:25,360 --> 01:20:27,519
Speaker 1: It was just like Douglas. It was their biggest play

1751
01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:27,800
Speaker 1: of the game.

1752
01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:30,799
Speaker 3: It was their only play over twenty yards, I believe,

1753
01:20:30,840 --> 01:20:32,880
Speaker 3: definitely their only throw over twenty yards.

1754
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:34,720
Speaker 1: And he said no clue, which is a little bit

1755
01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:36,000
Speaker 1: of the mac Jones of last year.

1756
01:20:36,040 --> 01:20:39,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, their offensive line coach, I wish you know the

1757
01:20:39,560 --> 01:20:41,240
Speaker 3: best firm and he has a health issue, but he

1758
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:44,479
Speaker 3: left the team earlier this week Adrian Clem So like

1759
01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:48,479
Speaker 3: there's just like a lot happening. And I will remember

1760
01:20:48,520 --> 01:20:50,439
Speaker 3: this game because I watched the end of it with

1761
01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:53,080
Speaker 3: my entire family, you know, me and Walker. We're up

1762
01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:54,920
Speaker 3: in the we're in the garage at six thirty. We're

1763
01:20:54,920 --> 01:20:57,519
Speaker 3: having fun, like we enjoyed. It was taking too seriously

1764
01:20:57,640 --> 01:21:00,840
Speaker 3: and when that play happened, it was great. The entire

1765
01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:04,320
Speaker 3: family actually burst out like in laughter what like no

1766
01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:07,000
Speaker 3: lie when the zappy thing happened, because we were just

1767
01:21:07,040 --> 01:21:10,519
Speaker 3: like it was so we were just laughter because it

1768
01:21:10,560 --> 01:21:12,679
Speaker 3: was it was legitimately funny.

1769
01:21:12,680 --> 01:21:15,040
Speaker 1: It was jeople like me are laughing. You usually be

1770
01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:16,280
Speaker 1: laughing about but we.

1771
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 3: Just were like, there's like they've watched enough to know

1772
01:21:19,040 --> 01:21:21,640
Speaker 3: how bad it is, and I don't know.

1773
01:21:21,680 --> 01:21:23,639
Speaker 1: They're so young, you know, you're well, but.

1774
01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:26,080
Speaker 3: This year, this year's Patriots ellis is not too in

1775
01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:28,040
Speaker 3: Bubba Walker and knows so bad is They're just like,

1776
01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:30,120
Speaker 3: this is gonna go horribly. What's gonna happen? Then you

1777
01:21:30,120 --> 01:21:32,479
Speaker 3: get the fakes like the interception. Everyone just starts laughing,

1778
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:33,200
Speaker 3: just just.

1779
01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:35,439
Speaker 2: For me and for all the other people that you know,

1780
01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:38,599
Speaker 2: did deal with the Patriots greatness for so long. Let's

1781
01:21:38,600 --> 01:21:43,360
Speaker 2: hear the sentient power aid bottle zolac Uh on the

1782
01:21:43,439 --> 01:21:47,240
Speaker 2: mac Jones interception that spelled the end of his Patriots career.

1783
01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 1: It is for fun, was absolute Kiff. He gives the

1784
01:21:50,280 --> 01:21:54,000
Speaker 1: Colts so it's not competitive. He had get Sicky running

1785
01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:57,880
Speaker 1: behind in the back end zone. What's he looking at?

1786
01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:04,080
Speaker 1: You gotta make move Bill, pick a move Bie weeks.

1787
01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:06,479
Speaker 3: Here, maybe you get the bye week. Maybe Bill was

1788
01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:09,320
Speaker 3: listening to Scott. He's gotta he's listening to the broadcast.

1789
01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:12,240
Speaker 1: It's good analysis. Good job Colts. By the way, you know,

1790
01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:14,719
Speaker 1: I know Colts fans. Let's not go too crazy.

1791
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:17,240
Speaker 3: All I'm saying is good job Shane Steichen. You're five

1792
01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:19,800
Speaker 3: and five, you don't, you have no reason to be.

1793
01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:22,920
Speaker 3: That's good coaching. Jonathan Taylor, nice body control on that

1794
01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:24,599
Speaker 3: first touch that it was actually quite a nice run

1795
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:26,400
Speaker 3: on a fourth down that ended up being the difference

1796
01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:26,760
Speaker 3: of the game.

1797
01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:29,120
Speaker 1: You got Buckner, you got some pass rush. Like the

1798
01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:31,840
Speaker 1: fact they're fin Pittman's like that should have been my touchdown, right.

1799
01:22:31,920 --> 01:22:34,040
Speaker 3: You just I'm saying, if you're a Colts fan, you're like, hey,

1800
01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:35,960
Speaker 3: we got the coach. Hopefully we got the quarterback. We

1801
01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:37,720
Speaker 3: won't find out till next year. We're you know we

1802
01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:38,479
Speaker 3: were doing some things.

1803
01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:40,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're hanging around and at the very least you

1804
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:42,720
Speaker 2: know they're playing for something after Thanksgiving.

1805
01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:46,880
Speaker 1: So there you go. Let's head to Sunday Night football.

1806
01:22:47,479 --> 01:22:49,800
Speaker 1: Final point in the game, no timeouts left. I never

1807
01:22:49,920 --> 01:22:50,880
Speaker 1: liked this prevent defense.

1808
01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:52,400
Speaker 7: I would like to have a rush, but I get

1809
01:22:52,439 --> 01:22:53,760
Speaker 7: it from the forty four.

1810
01:22:53,920 --> 01:22:58,000
Speaker 1: Wilson back to throw. Crosby spins them around. Wilson be chased.

1811
01:22:58,160 --> 01:23:01,320
Speaker 5: Crosby's counting back at the forty Else's gonna heap to

1812
01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:02,040
Speaker 5: the ends on.

1813
01:23:02,120 --> 01:23:05,480
Speaker 9: Door right, pits up in the air, had cut it down.

1814
01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:06,920
Speaker 6: Late.

1815
01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:09,439
Speaker 9: Hobbs got his hands on it to knock it down

1816
01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:12,400
Speaker 9: at the gold and the Raiders win at.

1817
01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:16,400
Speaker 8: Home sixteen twelve to get to five and five on

1818
01:23:16,479 --> 01:23:17,040
Speaker 8: the season.

1819
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:28,320
Speaker 2: Yes, the Las Vegas Raiders, with Antonio Pierce leading the charge,

1820
01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:31,960
Speaker 2: are somehow, some way in the thick of the AFC

1821
01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:39,440
Speaker 2: playoff race after another win, sweeping the Medlands Meadowlands Occupants

1822
01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:42,920
Speaker 2: Giants first in a blowout and then edging the Jets

1823
01:23:42,960 --> 01:23:43,840
Speaker 2: sixteen to twelve.

1824
01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:47,600
Speaker 1: When Zach Wilson's.

1825
01:23:46,840 --> 01:23:51,640
Speaker 2: Desperation hail Mary heave toward Garrett Wilson was broken up

1826
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:53,400
Speaker 2: by Jets tight.

1827
01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:54,240
Speaker 1: End Tyler Conklin.

1828
01:23:55,160 --> 01:24:01,240
Speaker 2: Nice play, Bud, and the Raiders improved to four and

1829
01:24:01,280 --> 01:24:01,760
Speaker 2: one at home.

1830
01:24:01,800 --> 01:24:02,120
Speaker 1: Greg.

1831
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:06,439
Speaker 2: They are not an impressive team. This was at a

1832
01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:10,880
Speaker 2: pretty game, but a battle of also rans. It is

1833
01:24:10,880 --> 01:24:14,160
Speaker 2: the Raiders who have a pulse as we head toward

1834
01:24:14,160 --> 01:24:16,639
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving them the Jets who look like they're fading away.

1835
01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:19,920
Speaker 3: Well, it's tough to separate these teams, and if they

1836
01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:22,400
Speaker 3: were in the NFC, you would feel like long term

1837
01:24:22,479 --> 01:24:24,879
Speaker 3: they maybe have a better chance to make the playoffs.

1838
01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:27,080
Speaker 3: But they both only have five losses, so it still

1839
01:24:27,120 --> 01:24:29,760
Speaker 3: feels big at this point in the season and you're

1840
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,400
Speaker 3: just wondering, like, how do the Raiders win these games?

1841
01:24:32,439 --> 01:24:36,639
Speaker 3: Exactly because it's a rookie quarterback and O'Connell, who's looked

1842
01:24:36,680 --> 01:24:39,520
Speaker 3: okay through two weeks, had a bad interception but otherwise

1843
01:24:40,640 --> 01:24:43,400
Speaker 3: some good plays. But no running back in the league

1844
01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:45,479
Speaker 3: dominates the ball more than Josh Jacobs. He is the

1845
01:24:45,520 --> 01:24:49,040
Speaker 3: highest percentage of plays of any one in the on

1846
01:24:49,080 --> 01:24:51,599
Speaker 3: any offense. And then today DeVante Adams had a higher

1847
01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:54,120
Speaker 3: percentage of air yards in this game. In terms of

1848
01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:56,120
Speaker 3: like the targets thirteen targets in this game, and just

1849
01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:58,639
Speaker 3: like air yards I think of any receiver of any

1850
01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:01,479
Speaker 3: game this year. So it's like four different guys and

1851
01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:04,120
Speaker 3: a lot of good speeches by Antonio Pierce and then

1852
01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:07,479
Speaker 3: Max Crosby. If there's one positive I guess about putting

1853
01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:09,280
Speaker 3: the Raiders in prime time so much?

1854
01:25:09,560 --> 01:25:10,200
Speaker 1: Like so much?

1855
01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:13,280
Speaker 3: Why so much? It has kind of been the Wow.

1856
01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:15,280
Speaker 3: Max Crosby is one of the best football players on

1857
01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:17,840
Speaker 3: earth and is just involved in every play. So a

1858
01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:19,120
Speaker 3: nice couple of months for me.

1859
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:22,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get the Crosby Show, and I think Josh

1860
01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:27,280
Speaker 2: Jacobs you're starting to see now as the season, you know,

1861
01:25:27,400 --> 01:25:28,599
Speaker 2: has reached the halfway point.

1862
01:25:28,640 --> 01:25:30,120
Speaker 1: It took him a while to get going after that

1863
01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:32,080
Speaker 1: long holdout, but he.

1864
01:25:32,080 --> 01:25:35,639
Speaker 2: Had some runs in this game, including a forty yard

1865
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:39,759
Speaker 2: run and that run where he carried the Jets defense

1866
01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:41,519
Speaker 2: for five or six yards. He also had a big

1867
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:44,599
Speaker 2: fumble that in the fourth quarter where when it looked

1868
01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:45,320
Speaker 2: like the Raiders are.

1869
01:25:45,280 --> 01:25:46,200
Speaker 1: About to put the game away.

1870
01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:48,880
Speaker 2: But in general, he seems more like the player he

1871
01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:51,559
Speaker 2: was last year when he was the rushing champ. Devonte

1872
01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:55,320
Speaker 2: Adams continues to be far less productive than he was

1873
01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:57,920
Speaker 2: at any other time in his career, but at least

1874
01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:01,280
Speaker 2: he's in the mix in this game for eighty six.

1875
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:03,879
Speaker 1: And they only had one fifty three through the year.

1876
01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:07,519
Speaker 2: Right, So, and you know, going against a stout Jets defense,

1877
01:26:08,280 --> 01:26:11,400
Speaker 2: that that's gonna play. So yeah, I think the Raiders

1878
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:13,360
Speaker 2: on the Raiders side of the ball, it's it's not

1879
01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:16,920
Speaker 2: gonna be pretty. Aidan O'Connell is not, you know, looking

1880
01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:19,760
Speaker 2: like CJ. Stroud out there. But it gets a little

1881
01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:21,800
Speaker 2: bit messy at the bottom of the AFC playoff picture.

1882
01:26:21,840 --> 01:26:23,920
Speaker 2: And maybe this is one of those teams that hang

1883
01:26:23,960 --> 01:26:26,960
Speaker 2: around even if nobody wants them around. On the Jet

1884
01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:30,160
Speaker 2: side of things, I could be mad. I could be

1885
01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:34,640
Speaker 2: you know, screaming and cursing and and and you know,

1886
01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:37,639
Speaker 2: shaking my fist at the football gods about that last play,

1887
01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:41,200
Speaker 2: because it really was a beautiful scramble to get away

1888
01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:44,000
Speaker 2: from Max Crosby by Wilson to square his shoulders and

1889
01:26:44,040 --> 01:26:47,360
Speaker 2: then throw a beautiful ball to the end zone there

1890
01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:50,240
Speaker 2: and and Garrett Wilson really did come very close to it.

1891
01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:52,719
Speaker 2: I'm not and it's not that's not a Joe Conklin.

1892
01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:55,400
Speaker 2: And you can't blame him. Tyler Conklan, the Jet tight end.

1893
01:26:55,680 --> 01:26:57,439
Speaker 2: He's just thrown his hands up too, and he's the

1894
01:26:57,439 --> 01:27:01,120
Speaker 2: one that actually knocks it away from Garret Wilson, and

1895
01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:03,400
Speaker 2: it would have been a miraculous win for the Jets.

1896
01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:05,400
Speaker 2: And the reason I can't complain is the Jets have

1897
01:27:05,439 --> 01:27:09,479
Speaker 2: already had a couple two or three miraculous wins this year,

1898
01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:12,120
Speaker 2: so you can't just expect them to keep on pulling

1899
01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:14,360
Speaker 2: a rabbit out of the hat. And you certainly can't

1900
01:27:14,439 --> 01:27:16,960
Speaker 2: expect the offense to make a big play when it counts.

1901
01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:19,080
Speaker 1: I mean you it came down to.

1902
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:21,519
Speaker 2: That last throw, but really the Jets had a chance

1903
01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:25,760
Speaker 2: here in their previous possession to truly take the game

1904
01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:29,799
Speaker 2: and steal it from the Raiders. And Zach Wilson stares

1905
01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:33,919
Speaker 2: down Alan Lazard and throws an interception to Robert Splaine

1906
01:27:33,920 --> 01:27:36,320
Speaker 2: that really kind of, for all intents and purposes, truly

1907
01:27:36,600 --> 01:27:38,599
Speaker 2: kind of buried the team. They did get it, do

1908
01:27:38,640 --> 01:27:41,680
Speaker 2: a good job getting it back the defense, Greg, But

1909
01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:45,280
Speaker 2: it's the same story with this offense, which is gone.

1910
01:27:46,280 --> 01:27:47,320
Speaker 1: What are we up to now?

1911
01:27:47,680 --> 01:27:50,960
Speaker 3: I think thirty five drives if my numbers are right,

1912
01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:55,679
Speaker 3: and one hundred in sixty nine minutes of game time.

1913
01:27:55,680 --> 01:27:56,400
Speaker 1: Can that be right?

1914
01:27:57,160 --> 01:27:59,720
Speaker 2: I mean, it sounds probably I mean, but it is

1915
01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:03,240
Speaker 2: about thirty five to thirty six possessions now without a touchdown,

1916
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:06,559
Speaker 2: and it just seems like the team's head is in

1917
01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:09,880
Speaker 2: the sand on this, with the quarterback, with the play

1918
01:28:09,880 --> 01:28:14,160
Speaker 2: caller Nathaniel Hackett, with the personnel, with the scheme, like

1919
01:28:14,200 --> 01:28:15,439
Speaker 2: they're not changing anything.

1920
01:28:15,439 --> 01:28:17,240
Speaker 1: And I wonder Greg how much of that is.

1921
01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:20,000
Speaker 2: And as the season slips away and they lose the

1922
01:28:20,040 --> 01:28:22,160
Speaker 2: tiebreaker out of the Raiders, they lose a tiebreaker of

1923
01:28:22,200 --> 01:28:25,200
Speaker 2: the Chargers last week to conference losses, so very bad

1924
01:28:25,240 --> 01:28:27,880
Speaker 2: for their playoff hopes. Is how much is this is

1925
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:30,679
Speaker 2: tied into the true boss of the organization, Aaron Rodgers,

1926
01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:34,640
Speaker 2: who again floated something to NBC about a return, and

1927
01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:36,519
Speaker 2: it's like they want to just keep everything in place

1928
01:28:36,600 --> 01:28:40,000
Speaker 2: until he gets here to save us. And it's certainly

1929
01:28:40,080 --> 01:28:41,880
Speaker 2: no way to try to keep a season alive as

1930
01:28:41,880 --> 01:28:42,920
Speaker 2: it all starts to fade away.

1931
01:28:43,040 --> 01:28:46,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, he said mid December to Melissa. According to mid

1932
01:28:46,439 --> 01:28:48,240
Speaker 3: Melissa Stark, that that was the goal.

1933
01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:51,000
Speaker 2: And it's mid November right now for those tracking, So

1934
01:28:51,240 --> 01:28:52,879
Speaker 2: he says he's about a month away.

1935
01:28:52,680 --> 01:28:56,120
Speaker 3: Potentially, and so that would be you know, maybe their

1936
01:28:56,200 --> 01:28:59,880
Speaker 3: game against the Commanders, which would be you know, the

1937
01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:03,880
Speaker 3: only three weeks left in the season. Most likely PFT

1938
01:29:04,040 --> 01:29:06,600
Speaker 3: also put something out that it's more likely that he

1939
01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:08,400
Speaker 3: wouldn't be ready to OTAs for what.

1940
01:29:08,360 --> 01:29:11,599
Speaker 1: It's worth, it's tough.

1941
01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:14,680
Speaker 3: This game is actually why they can't change off of it,

1942
01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:19,920
Speaker 3: because I understand why they would leave this game thinking,

1943
01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:22,120
Speaker 3: oh man, we're not that far away now. On one hand,

1944
01:29:22,160 --> 01:29:26,360
Speaker 3: we haven't scored a freaking touchdown in almost three games,

1945
01:29:26,479 --> 01:29:30,720
Speaker 3: thirty five drives, I think, And yet Zach Wilson on

1946
01:29:30,760 --> 01:29:34,439
Speaker 3: those final two drives made some great throws I mean,

1947
01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:37,400
Speaker 3: to get the ball in position once they fell down

1948
01:29:37,439 --> 01:29:39,920
Speaker 3: to touch. You know, once Jacobs fumbled that ball, and

1949
01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:43,679
Speaker 3: it was Jacob's first fumble I think in three hundred

1950
01:29:43,800 --> 01:29:46,960
Speaker 3: something touches, So like, that's pretty rare that would happen

1951
01:29:47,320 --> 01:29:49,760
Speaker 3: three hundred and forty six straight top touches without losing

1952
01:29:49,760 --> 01:29:51,400
Speaker 3: a fumble. And then he fumbled it. They get it

1953
01:29:51,439 --> 01:29:53,200
Speaker 3: and you almost feel like, oh, the magic's happened again.

1954
01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:55,800
Speaker 3: Zach Wilson made some really good plays to move the

1955
01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:58,360
Speaker 3: ball down the field. Then he stares down the interception,

1956
01:29:58,479 --> 01:30:00,519
Speaker 3: then he gets the ball back again and and I

1957
01:30:00,520 --> 01:30:02,360
Speaker 3: mean that throat a conkline he had to set up

1958
01:30:02,360 --> 01:30:05,240
Speaker 3: the hail Mary was incredible too, so it's like you're.

1959
01:30:05,040 --> 01:30:06,240
Speaker 1: Seeing these little finishes.

1960
01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:08,479
Speaker 3: And he started the game five for seven for eighty

1961
01:30:08,520 --> 01:30:10,679
Speaker 3: four yards and he almost ran in for a touchdown.

1962
01:30:10,720 --> 01:30:14,120
Speaker 3: This is actually one of Zach Wilson's best games of

1963
01:30:14,160 --> 01:30:14,639
Speaker 3: the season.

1964
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:17,799
Speaker 2: And think about that though, right, they didn't score a touchdown,

1965
01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:21,120
Speaker 2: and yes, he nearly had a touchdown scrabble but stepped

1966
01:30:21,160 --> 01:30:22,720
Speaker 2: out of bounds and then they shoot themselves in the

1967
01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:24,960
Speaker 2: foot with penalties on that drive. He also had the

1968
01:30:25,040 --> 01:30:28,920
Speaker 2: no look past to Alan Lazard on that an ultimate

1969
01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:32,240
Speaker 2: drive that he rattled at home because Lazard was trying

1970
01:30:32,240 --> 01:30:34,160
Speaker 2: almost to drop the ball, but he held on to it.

1971
01:30:34,160 --> 01:30:35,400
Speaker 1: It was probably his third best game.

1972
01:30:35,439 --> 01:30:37,200
Speaker 3: He had that two game stretch where he looked okay,

1973
01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:40,240
Speaker 3: this one I was like okay. But they also the

1974
01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:42,960
Speaker 3: defense only allowed two first downs in the first twenty

1975
01:30:42,960 --> 01:30:45,439
Speaker 3: five minute Dan and it was nine to three at

1976
01:30:45,439 --> 01:30:47,640
Speaker 3: that point, and the Jets had a chance to to

1977
01:30:47,680 --> 01:30:49,479
Speaker 3: go down and at least take the clock away at

1978
01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:51,519
Speaker 3: the end of the first half, and they couldn't do that.

1979
01:30:51,560 --> 01:30:55,240
Speaker 3: And that's where they are not taking advantage and they're

1980
01:30:55,280 --> 01:30:57,519
Speaker 3: asking the defense to do so much. They should have

1981
01:30:57,520 --> 01:31:00,320
Speaker 3: been up by two scores at halftime, and the kind

1982
01:31:00,320 --> 01:31:01,719
Speaker 3: of just frittered that part away.

1983
01:31:01,720 --> 01:31:02,840
Speaker 1: And that is on the offense.

1984
01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:05,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's the same thing I said last week

1985
01:31:05,360 --> 01:31:07,559
Speaker 2: and probably the week before. Like the way this team

1986
01:31:07,680 --> 01:31:11,799
Speaker 2: is now set up, it is the defense is to dominate,

1987
01:31:12,120 --> 01:31:14,200
Speaker 2: and it's not enough to just dominate. They also have

1988
01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:18,280
Speaker 2: to have takeaways that either produce points or set up

1989
01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:21,040
Speaker 2: the offense on a very short field. And they even

1990
01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:24,599
Speaker 2: did have to turnovers, right, but they didn't have the impact. Well,

1991
01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:26,760
Speaker 2: they actually did have one in the first half that

1992
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:29,439
Speaker 2: set them up with a field goal. But unless the

1993
01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:32,800
Speaker 2: defense does something truly special or special teams, they're just

1994
01:31:32,840 --> 01:31:34,760
Speaker 2: not gonna win games the way they are set up

1995
01:31:34,800 --> 01:31:38,639
Speaker 2: because in addition to the Wilson struggles and the offensive

1996
01:31:38,640 --> 01:31:41,200
Speaker 2: line struggle, the running game now is stuck in mud.

1997
01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:45,320
Speaker 1: So it is to me with the Giants, these are

1998
01:31:45,360 --> 01:31:46,879
Speaker 1: the two worst offenses in football.

1999
01:31:46,920 --> 01:31:50,679
Speaker 2: So if the Raiders fans right now are feeling happy

2000
01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:52,559
Speaker 2: and refreshed and renewed, that's good.

2001
01:31:52,680 --> 01:31:54,360
Speaker 1: That's great. You have something to root for.

2002
01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:57,360
Speaker 2: But also keep in mind the two offenses that you

2003
01:31:57,439 --> 01:32:00,280
Speaker 2: just played are quite possibly along with the paid treats,

2004
01:32:00,320 --> 01:32:04,200
Speaker 2: possibly the worst offenses in football. So we'll see what

2005
01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:06,639
Speaker 2: the Raiders look like when the competition jumps up a notch.

2006
01:32:07,479 --> 01:32:11,320
Speaker 2: But yeah, they have the Dolphins next week so that

2007
01:32:11,360 --> 01:32:14,400
Speaker 2: will be a true test and the Chiefs after that,

2008
01:32:14,560 --> 01:32:16,080
Speaker 2: so we'll see where they stand.

2009
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:21,400
Speaker 3: In the AFC is truly stupid. There are seven teams.

2010
01:32:22,479 --> 01:32:24,960
Speaker 3: There's that eight teams, you know, between the seven seed,

2011
01:32:25,479 --> 01:32:29,200
Speaker 3: which is Houston. Houston's five and four, Like we think

2012
01:32:29,200 --> 01:32:31,439
Speaker 3: of them as this great team in Cincinnati's fighting four

2013
01:32:31,439 --> 01:32:31,920
Speaker 3: in Buffaloes.

2014
01:32:32,360 --> 01:32:33,519
Speaker 1: So they haven't played tomorrow night.

2015
01:32:33,640 --> 01:32:36,280
Speaker 3: But there's seven teams that either have four or five losses,

2016
01:32:36,320 --> 01:32:39,040
Speaker 3: including the Jets, including the Raiders, including the Denver Broncos

2017
01:32:39,080 --> 01:32:39,559
Speaker 3: at least.

2018
01:32:39,439 --> 01:32:40,040
Speaker 1: For one more day.

2019
01:32:42,040 --> 01:32:45,439
Speaker 3: I'm just like eight teams. I counted it wrong. Eight

2020
01:32:45,479 --> 01:32:47,920
Speaker 3: teams have either four or five losses. I mean that

2021
01:32:48,080 --> 01:32:52,599
Speaker 3: is a big fat middle conference and then New England.

2022
01:32:52,920 --> 01:32:54,840
Speaker 2: But they You know, if you're a Jets fan, you're

2023
01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:58,760
Speaker 2: disgusted because you thought home against the Chargers, then you

2024
01:32:58,800 --> 01:33:00,960
Speaker 2: get the Raiders. This have been your chance to kind

2025
01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:03,080
Speaker 2: of put yourself ahead of a lot of these teams.

2026
01:33:03,080 --> 01:33:05,040
Speaker 1: Instead, now you're kind of looking up at them.

2027
01:33:06,479 --> 01:33:09,840
Speaker 2: It's just very frustrating, and it's I try to keep

2028
01:33:09,880 --> 01:33:12,720
Speaker 2: it in perspective, Greg, because I know in my heart

2029
01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:15,400
Speaker 2: as soon as Aaron Rodgers Achilles popped, it was over.

2030
01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:18,639
Speaker 2: And I said that, I've said that, But they kind

2031
01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:21,400
Speaker 2: of sucked you in with some of those wins and

2032
01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:23,639
Speaker 2: made you think, Okay, maybe this could be like a fun,

2033
01:33:24,000 --> 01:33:27,040
Speaker 2: weird season and we're playing in the playoffs as a

2034
01:33:27,080 --> 01:33:27,639
Speaker 2: wild card.

2035
01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:30,960
Speaker 1: But I feel like the last six days.

2036
01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:35,120
Speaker 2: Reality is struck and it feels like Midnight has struck,

2037
01:33:35,160 --> 01:33:38,479
Speaker 2: which is also kind of sad because it wasn't exactly

2038
01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:42,559
Speaker 2: a Cinderella story either. They've been a tough watch for

2039
01:33:42,600 --> 01:33:44,439
Speaker 2: the most part this season, but we're kept on coming

2040
01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:47,000
Speaker 2: up with wins. But now they're coming up with losses

2041
01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:49,639
Speaker 2: and that's just the way it goes, all right.

2042
01:33:51,800 --> 01:33:55,920
Speaker 3: Got just gotta hold the fort here until Aaron gets back.

2043
01:33:56,000 --> 01:33:58,599
Speaker 1: But at Buffalo and then Miami, then Nick's just had.

2044
01:33:58,479 --> 01:34:01,080
Speaker 2: A really good home stand beat up on all three

2045
01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:05,360
Speaker 2: of their opponents. So we got the Knicks, and we

2046
01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:05,800
Speaker 2: got the.

2047
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:08,920
Speaker 1: Nick Celtics game this week. Yeah, and the Yankees.

2048
01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:11,600
Speaker 11: Different than basketball.

2049
01:34:11,640 --> 01:34:15,240
Speaker 2: Part, he's a pitcher that I'm excited about and maybe

2050
01:34:15,280 --> 01:34:17,920
Speaker 2: we make a play bro Tani.

2051
01:34:17,960 --> 01:34:20,000
Speaker 1: So there's you know, there is hope, just not about

2052
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:21,080
Speaker 1: the football team. All right.
