1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,920
Speaker 1: This is the best of two pros and a couple

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:13,400
Speaker 1: Joe with Lamar Airings, Winn and Jonas Knox on radio.

3
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 2: And a good morning, good morning. Oh he sounds happy.

4
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 3: I mean you're okay, figure out what do you mean?

5
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 2: A year ago?

6
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 3: A year ago, we were destined to see each other

7
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 3: before the National Championship game in a in a in

8
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 3: a matchup between two blue blood schools, and look at

9
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 3: where we are now in the same exact play. You

10
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 3: know how disappointed I was that y'all didn't make it.

11
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 3: Then after I accepted the fact that y'all didn't make it,

12
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 3: how happy I was that I would get to throw

13
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 3: this in your face.

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm joking. I'm joking.

15
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

16
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 5: I mean the difference is you've got a new coach

17
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:52,520
Speaker 5: and we'll see what happens from there.

18
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 3: Well, we did get a new coach, but you know,

19
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 3: we were definitely not in a position to have which By.

20
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 5: The way, it's interesting that you trying to distract off

21
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 5: of what you said Friday distract made its waves.

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:05,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you mean distract.

23
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 5: That's exactly what I said. There is no words to

24
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 5: be twisted. You broke out some stuff Friday that not

25
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 5: a lot of people were aware.

26
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 2: Of and I'm glad that you were aheadline.

27
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 3: I'm glad you had some awareness of the awareness because

28
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 3: you know the way the segment played out, it was

29
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 3: almost everybody was at like, did you like put Q

30
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 3: up on what was going on?

31
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 2: And I said absolutely not.

32
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 6: No.

33
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 5: You people forget like like I know people, I know

34
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 5: things going on, people talk to me about stuff.

35
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 2: Indeed, it was well well done.

36
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 5: It's one of the reasons why, like people think a

37
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 5: lot of it. It's so funny to me about the

38
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 5: college football playoff and how people have reacted to things

39
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 5: that I'm saying in regards to like, oh, it's because

40
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 5: it's about Notre Dame. It's like, no, Actually, we're gonna

41
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 5: have a nice little segment here, and I'm gonna teach

42
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 5: you some things why if I was a Miami fan,

43
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 5: I would be very frustrated with being left out last

44
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 5: year and almost being left out this year, and I'll

45
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 5: explain why. And if I was a college football fan,

46
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 5: or if I'm a BYU fan, I'd be very upset

47
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 5: about being treated differently then Bama was treated. And there's

48
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 5: reasons why. So we can all act like everything's on

49
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 5: the up and up, and that money's not involved and

50
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 5: there's not motivation to get certain conferences, certain teams and

51
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 5: have certain things happen. I mean, we talked about we've

52
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 5: talked about the College fall playoff, how the committee right

53
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 5: doesn't want to have rematches because we've already seen these games, Like,

54
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 5: what's the point of having a rematch? We literally have

55
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 5: two of them in the first round in this year.

56
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 5: Two I like personally, well, okay, rematches when they're not

57
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 5: orchestrated the way they are by this committee. So if

58
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 5: you had a rematch where they have to win a

59
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 5: game or two to get there, that's one thing. But

60
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 5: they then have a rematch where it's like we've seen

61
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 5: Bama Oklahoma. Does anyone really care to see that again?

62
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 5: Besides Alabama Oklahoma? Oklahoma's offense stinks. Alabama's defense and really

63
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 5: offense in the SEC championshipame stinks. We watched that before.

64
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 5: Do we need to see Ole Miss blowout t Lane again?

65
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 5: We've already watched that matchup. Well, but this is how

66
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 5: we this is how we construct our national championship in

67
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 5: college football. And it's crazy because you know, the playoff

68
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 5: and tournament format is obviously one of the greatest things

69
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 5: about men's basketball women basketball, like that March madness, and

70
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 5: it's celebrated, it's awesome. And instead we have a network

71
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 5: in ESPN that makes this drama filled, stupid show on

72
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 5: Tuesday nights and they use it just to make money

73
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 5: off of. And then we get into the playoff, we're like, yes,

74
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 5: this is for the national championship. Well, no, it's not.

75
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 5: You don't have the twelve best teams in there. And

76
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 5: I'm not like advocating too for saying like, hey, a

77
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 5: team like Tulane shouldn't make it in or jam you

78
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 5: shouldn't make it in. But again, as we talk about this,

79
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 5: I will show you how messed up the entire process is.

80
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, let's get into Yeah, let's do it.

81
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 5: Let's do some radio formatics. We got radio formatics.

82
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 6: I mean, let's fire off.

83
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 7: You know, we've already gotten the particulars out of the way,

84
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 7: the details of the show out of the way. College

85
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 7: football playoff is out. For those of you that aren't aware,

86
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 7: here's you're one through twelve, with Indiana as the number

87
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 7: one seed. You've got Ohio State two, going to have

88
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 7: Georgia sitting at three, Texas Tech at four. The five

89
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 7: to twelve matchup will be Oregon and James Madison. You're

90
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 7: going to see U as well Miami and Texas A

91
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 7: and M You've got Ole miss Tulane, as Brady mentioned,

92
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 7: and you've got the rematch of Alabama Oklahoma, which we

93
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 7: saw previous earlier in the year as well too. So

94
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 7: missing in this whole conversation is Notre Dame, who, in

95
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 7: my opinion, was strung along and strung along and strung along.

96
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 7: And I talked to Brady about this actually off the air,

97
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 7: and it was, you know, in the midst of a

98
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 7: hardware store fire near his house, that the idea that

99
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 7: after wins, you would then decide to flip Notre Dame

100
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 7: in Alabama was the first signal, Okay, this is a script.

101
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 7: It's a scripted television show. They were written into the

102
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 7: script and now we're getting towards the final episode where

103
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 7: the switch is gonna happen and Alabama goes out gets

104
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 7: knifed in. The SEC championship game wasn't even close, not

105
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 7: even close. They've got three losses, but they're in and

106
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 7: Notre Dame is on the outside.

107
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 2: Look it in God c I'm gonna let you have it.

108
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 2: It's not.

109
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 5: So there's a number of ways of looking at this,

110
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 5: Like there's the case for Notre Dame. And I think

111
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 5: a lot of people who look at Notre Dame's case

112
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 5: were like, well, they lost the head to head to Miami.

113
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 5: That's correct. And I think you guys know and anyone

114
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 5: who knows that I've talked about this situation is the

115
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 5: comparison to me was never Notre Dame in Miami. I've

116
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 5: always said that, like, head to head does matter, and

117
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 5: that game, if it's purely the only thing you're looking at,

118
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 5: has to matter. So Notre Dame was never gonna go

119
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 5: over go in ahead of Miami because of the head

120
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 5: to head. Now, the idea that we needed a team

121
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 5: in between the two to compare those two things, that's

122
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 5: where we start like making this a mockery when you say, like, well,

123
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 5: because there was BYU in between them, we weren't able

124
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 5: to really compare those two teams. And trust me, I

125
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 5: know because I'm sure LeVar back in the day, you know,

126
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 5: when he was talking to one girl, if there was

127
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 5: another girl between him, he never could look across the

128
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 5: bar and another girl to compare the two, right, bar

129
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 5: I mean.

130
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 2: That never happened yesterday, damn got rich.

131
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 5: But think about how stupid that argument is. And now

132
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 5: we go, well, guys, there was a buffer. BYU was

133
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 5: in between him. It's like, no, man, you're comparing all

134
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 5: those teams. You were looking at Notre Dame's case, you're

135
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 5: looking at Miami's case, you're looking at BYU's case, you're

136
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 5: looking at Bama's case. But the truth of the matter was,

137
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 5: in a week where Notre Dame was ahead of Alabama,

138
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 5: both teams won one much more were convincingly versus a

139
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 5: losing team versus another team who is a losing team

140
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 5: in Auburn, and nearly dropped that game. They jumped Alabama

141
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 5: ahead of Notre Dame, and the rationale behind that is inexplicable.

142
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 5: Some would say, well, you know, the College Football Playoff

143
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 5: Committee penalized Alabama too much when they lost to Oklahoma,

144
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 5: so this was a way of moving them back where

145
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 5: they should have been in the first place. There was

146
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 5: that little spun narrative out there. There was others who

147
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 5: felt like, well, this was actually a move to put

148
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 5: Alabama in a position where, regardless of outcome, they were

149
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 5: going to make it into the College Football Playoff because

150
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 5: they're Alabama and they've got a good resume of wins, which,

151
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 5: all right, are we not going to then factor into

152
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 5: who they've lost to and how they've lost? You know,

153
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 5: how are we looking at these teams as what they

154
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 5: are as teams? Are we looking at just their ceiling

155
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 5: by what they've done when they've won? Do we look

156
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 5: at their floor? Because the floor is pretty low at Alabama.

157
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 5: I mean, let's just look at their Week one lost

158
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,839
Speaker 5: to Florida State, another losing team who's bad. I guess

159
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 5: we don't take that into consideration, at least not those

160
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 5: Week one games for Bama, just for Notre Dame and Miami.

161
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 5: So when you really start looking at how this committee

162
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 5: had compared the teams, there was things they did along

163
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 5: the way that made no logical sense, no rational sense

164
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 5: outside of saying this was purely for TV. There was

165
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 5: no reason to wait to move Miami ahead of Notre

166
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 5: Dame in the rankings. They could have done it all year.

167
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 5: Miami beat Notre Dame week one. There was never a

168
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 5: reason to move Miami behind Notre Dame. Notre Dame started

169
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 5: off zero to two. They always could have kept Notre

170
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 5: Dame behind Miami. So the committee purely did this for

171
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 5: the theatrics as a part of ESPN because it's Notre

172
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 5: Dame and using that brand. That's where I think a

173
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 5: lot of people are frustrated with this, because it's not

174
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 5: just about not making the playoff. It was being upon

175
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 5: in a TV show for a network that has no

176
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 5: ties to that brand or that school. And then when

177
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 5: you look at the brands they are propping up Miami,

178
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 5: which would have been the if.

179
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 2: They're not for them.

180
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 5: They're the only team representing the ACC who owns the

181
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 5: distribution to the ACC ESPN?

182
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 3: AC knew it was SEC, I didn't know it was ACC.

183
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 3: I didn't who was the distribution to the SEC ESPN ESPN.

184
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 3: They owned both. So when you really look at what occurred,

185
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 3: and if you look at the Big twelve, it's split.

186
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 3: It's Fox and it's ESPN. So when you look at that,

187
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 3: you go, huh, that's kind of odd.

188
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 5: You got two of the teams that you're really trying

189
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 5: to prop those con is up which and then just

190
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 5: to dive deeper into it, let's just talk about how

191
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 5: Miami got where they got and how the ACC got

192
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 5: where they got. Because as as I'm making a case

193
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 5: for what I think Notre Dame was frustrated by, you

194
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 5: also have to understand, you know, and we'll get to

195
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 5: the Bama and the SEC Championship game, but if you

196
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 5: look at the ACC Championship and how it was constructed,

197
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 5: the reason why they only have one team in it's

198
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 5: an at large bid, not their conference championship is purely

199
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 5: on Jim Phillips. It's purely on the ACC for the

200
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 5: manner in which they construct their tie breaking scenarios to

201
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 5: determine who plays in that championship game. So congratulations to

202
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 5: Manny Diaz and Duke and those players. They won the

203
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 5: ACC Championship this year. Were they the best team in

204
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 5: the ACC? Of course not. And mind you, not only

205
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 5: are that the best team in the ACC, they weren't

206
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 5: the team that was gonna end up going on to

207
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 5: go play for a national championship, which is a shame

208
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 5: because it kind of provided like a false sense of

209
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 5: what these players and coaches could achieve because eight and

210
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 5: five you're not getting in the playoff. You're not and

211
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 5: because of the tie breaking scenarios that were I believe

212
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 5: head to head and It's like, you know, percentage of

213
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 5: record versus common opponents and their win loss record. That's

214
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,719
Speaker 5: the ACC's tie breaking scenario to determine that Duke and

215
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 5: Uva we're best suited to go play for the AEC championship.

216
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 5: We find ourselves in this entire situation where you get

217
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 5: to Lane and James Madison, this Sun Belt champion both

218
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 5: the part of the playoff. Now you're gonna ask why

219
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 5: is that. It's because the AAC, for example, in their

220
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 5: tie breaking criteria to determine who plays off for their

221
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 5: their conference championship, it reads like this head to head. Okay,

222
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 5: if that doesn't break the scenario, you go to the

223
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 5: next thing. What's that College football highest ranked College Football

224
00:12:55,559 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 5: playoff teams? Which makes the most sense for every conference

225
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 5: that's trying to play under the college football playoff to

226
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 5: play for a national championship. Ultimately, your conference is trying

227
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 5: to determine who are those best two teams they're gonna

228
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 5: play for our conference championship and then go on to

229
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 5: play for a national championship to represent our conference. And

230
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 5: because the ACC wasn't able to identify that they could

231
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 5: send a team with five losses to their Conference Championship

232
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 5: that if they win, which again congrats to Duke. Awesome game,

233
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 5: awesome seeing them be able to survive and still, you know,

234
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 5: go get that thing in overtime. But they could not

235
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 5: foresee that if that team was going to win, they

236
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 5: were gonna end up being left out of the playoff.

237
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 5: I mean ESPN had a crew there waiting being like, oh,

238
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 5: we will see if Duke gets it. It's like, yeah, no,

239
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 5: there's no shot. There's no shot, Like, what are you

240
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 5: talking about. And so, because of that and the way

241
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 5: it's word in the college football playoff, if you had

242
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 5: to end up having the five highest ranked conference champions

243
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 5: get access to the tournament, so you have the SEC,

244
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 5: the Big Ten, and the Big Twelve with Texas Tech,

245
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 5: but you still needed two more conference champs. So the

246
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 5: ACC gets left out. The AAC again, a better worded

247
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 5: tie breaking scenario allows North Texas and Talane to play

248
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 5: off for it, and obviously Tulane to move on into

249
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 5: the playoff, and then James Madison from the Sun Belt.

250
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 5: And if they would have tweaked the language to be

251
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 5: that of the AAC in the ACC Championship, it would

252
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 5: have been Miami playing off against UVA. What would that

253
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 5: have meant, Miami probably beats UVA. There's an extra spot

254
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 5: James Madison doesn't get in Notre Dame would end up

255
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 5: getting as that large bit it could have been byu

256
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 5: that would be then up for debate. So I'm not

257
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 5: even just making a case for Notre Dame. But based

258
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 5: on how the College Football Playoff Committee saw it, they

259
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 5: did rank No Name ahead of byu So that's who

260
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 5: would have gotten that final spot. So there's just one

261
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 5: example of the ineptitude of the ACC in that conference,

262
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 5: again distributed by the ESPN. ESPN has their hand in

263
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 5: all this, and because of their own inability to determine

264
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 5: the best suited conference champion, they end up finding themselves

265
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 5: in the midst of all of this, completely fumbling it,

266
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 5: but then lucking out because the committee throws Miami in

267
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 5: there to save the ACC the representation, and again ESPN

268
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 5: for having a conference that was basically going to be

269
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 5: left out because of the stupidity of those involved not

270
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 5: being able to figure out their own conference champion.

271
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 7: They've kind of spit on conference championship games. Basically is

272
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 7: because they've they've determined that well, look, you know, as

273
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 7: long as you, because anybody that watched the SEC title

274
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 7: game that wasn't close.

275
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 2: No, it wasn't competitive like.

276
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 7: Atat like it never at one point during that game

277
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 7: did I look at it and go, oh, I don't know, man,

278
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 7: Alabama's got a shot here.

279
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 6: That wasn't close.

280
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 7: And so if you're using the same rationale as to

281
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 7: why BYU got left out or why it's okay, well

282
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 7: then make it well.

283
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 5: That's the next part of the conversation is why does

284
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 5: BYU get like counter and knocked down after the performance

285
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 5: in their Big twelve championship game and not Bama. And

286
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 5: in fact, on average over the of the four team

287
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 5: playoff for ten years, the average was teams that lost

288
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 5: in the conference championship but would move down two spots.

289
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 5: And I just had someone send me a piece of

290
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 5: research and it was like the last three years, the

291
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 5: only team to lose in their conference championship and not

292
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 5: move down is Alabama. And to further that point, the

293
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 5: only team in SEC Conference cham championship history to not

294
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 5: score a point for three quarters is this year's Alabama team.

295
00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 5: This year's Alabama off And it was by the way,

296
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 5: Tys Simps in the passing game is the only thing

297
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 5: that's kept that entire offense together. They can't run the football,

298
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,400
Speaker 5: they can't stop the run. This is not like your

299
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 5: Nick Saban Alabama teams. It's not I would be shocked

300
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 5: if Oklahoma and beat them agin in and Oklahoma can't score.

301
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 5: Poor jeoh matteers got to deal with a surgeygre repaired

302
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 5: thumb or a messed up thumb and their offense is struggled.

303
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 5: But like again, that plays to these ideas and thoughts

304
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 5: and conspiracy theories that this is what ESPN wants because

305
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 5: there are a lot of the teams that you know

306
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 5: they're beholden to given their distribution within the SEC and

307
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 5: the ACC and how they wanted this whole thing to

308
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 5: work out. They didn't want to leave out of Abama team,

309
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 5: which I think if you wanted to set that precedent,

310
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 5: you had every right to leave Bama au based on

311
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 5: that performance and laying an egg. But they tried to

312
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 5: send a message really to notre name that they want

313
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 5: to penalize teams for playing in a conference championship weekend.

314
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 5: And I'll just add on top of that for all

315
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 5: the people who are like, yo, you need a joy

316
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 5: to conference here, it is, LeVar. Are how many teams

317
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 5: in the semi last year won their conference championship?

318
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 2: Oh uh?

319
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 3: In the semi final of the College Football Playoff?

320
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, year zero just expanded twelve teams?

321
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 2: Zero?

322
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 5: That is dead on correct. How many teams in the

323
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 5: national championship? How many teams that won it all last year?

324
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 2: Zero? There you go and the other glad I could

325
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 2: assist you.

326
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 7: Just just listening to on the this and I'll give

327
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 7: Sean mcdonnok credit because he.

328
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 2: Gave it Brady Quinn credit here with this. Dude just

329
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 2: ran off.

330
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,239
Speaker 6: Bruh, listen, bro.

331
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 2: I think he's like, he's like he needs.

332
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 3: To be like clinically diagnosed, Like you got some type

333
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 3: of issue. Man, I'm telling you, I don't get it, Spectrum,

334
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 3: I don't get.

335
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 2: It, brou.

336
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 3: Probably I'm sitting there trying to keep my mouth off

337
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 3: of the table.

338
00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 2: Like what the sound like a cybor like a computer

339
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 2: like type it in enter.

340
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 6: So they had to the internet.

341
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 7: They had a lot of time to h to kill

342
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 7: during the SEC championship game.

343
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 6: It wasn't good. It was And so Sean mcdonn is

344
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 6: making the point.

345
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 2: Are he.

346
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 7: Sean McDonough brought up the point he said, you know

347
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 7: why is the question is why was Notre Dame knocked

348
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 7: down a spot and why were they swapped with Alabama?

349
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 7: Like that's and he tried, you know, he tried to

350
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 7: make the argument to be fair and balanced. And Greg

351
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 7: McElroy is like, well, I think they were just correcting

352
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 7: the fact that Alabama was punished too hard, dropping from

353
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 7: four to ten for their loss to Oklahoma. It's like,

354
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 7: all right, so what are we doing? Are you script doctors? Like, hey,

355
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 7: you know, we wrote this thing out, but we didn't

356
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 7: like how that went. So after the fact, we're gonna

357
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 7: go and then we're gonna start correcting things like you did.

358
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 6: Like is that how this whole thing is done now?

359
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 3: Like?

360
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 2: Is that is that?

361
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 7: Because if that's the case, then why waste anybody's time

362
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 7: in the build up until we get to the final rankings.

363
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 7: Just release the final rankings, figure out what you guys

364
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 7: want to do, and don't spend time discussing in a meeting,

365
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 7: Go to television, announce your rankings, and then a few

366
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 7: weeks later, decide, you know what, upon further review, we

367
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 7: were too harsh on them, We'll go ahead and swap

368
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 7: them the spot.

369
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 2: Still think none of it makes sense.

370
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 3: The problem with what you're saying is it still runs

371
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:32,120
Speaker 3: into the problem that Q was presenting, and that there

372
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 3: is it clearly showed itself this year that the agenda

373
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 3: is clear.

374
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 2: It's clear, and and waiting to do the rankings.

375
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 3: I don't think that that rectifies it. Like, the fact

376
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 3: of the matter is you want the teams in that

377
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 3: you want, and they're representing the bottom line that it's

378
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 3: going to represent.

379
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:55,919
Speaker 2: I think it's very simple.

380
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 3: I mean Q just explained that that, like gave y'all

381
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 3: like a class on it, and and if you're taking

382
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 3: notes on it, you can understand more of the why.

383
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, the dilemma is

384
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 3: you have conflicting interests with the people who own the

385
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 3: college football playoffs period, and and they're going to make

386
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 3: decisions that are are weighted on how it benefits them

387
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 3: most because they are the platform that that has.

388
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 2: The control over it. I mean, that's just you know, I.

389
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 3: Was about to say something real crazy.

390
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 2: Now Notre Dame knows what it feels like to be.

391
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 3: I really was, Now, b why you knows what it

392
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 3: feels like to be against the establishment.

393
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 5: You know what I mean like, well, that's here's.

394
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 2: The reality to it is fight fight the power.

395
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,439
Speaker 5: We make a case that ESPN, you go, budd you

396
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 5: can equally hate the case that ESPN just hates any religion.

397
00:21:58,400 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 5: They hate Mormons.

398
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,360
Speaker 2: There, you get all of them there.

399
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 5: That's the thing is they hit all of them.

400
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 2: There, you go.

401
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 5: Disney's become so sacrilegious that they just hate every sort

402
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 5: of a sense of faith. And that's that's what they're.

403
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 2: Pushing, pushing. I knew we could get him there. I

404
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 2: knew we could get him there.

405
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 5: I mean, we could call it a conspiracy theory, but

406
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 5: it seems rather obvious to me that any form of

407
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 5: a belief and a higher being they're just trying to

408
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 5: push out. The last time I checked, is is TCU involved.

409
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 2: Nope?

410
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 5: Nope, Is Baylor involved? Nope? Dang, just saying, I mean,

411
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 5: last time I saw is Boston College and some of

412
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 5: these other institutions that are tied back to, you know,

413
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 5: some sort of faith or religion. I just think ESPN

414
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 5: hates God and that's they're trying to take over, trying

415
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 5: to act like they're God out there in the college

416
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 5: football playoff and the.

417
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 2: Truth Shell said, free.

418
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, how about them Apple's ESPN. You just hate God,

419
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 5: you hate us Mormons, the.

420
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,440

435
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 7: Really really hoping, really wishing, possibly praying that the Kansas

436
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 7: City Chiefs were not done for and that there were

437
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 7: still top I am to make a run of this

438
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 7: whole thing. The Houston Texans stepped right up and said,

439
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 7: go f yourself with a dominant performance last night, you

440
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 7: can look at whatever the final score, stat metric you want.

441
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,959
Speaker 7: The Kansas City Chiefs look like a shell of themselves,

442
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,959
Speaker 7: so much so that I think LeVar basically closed the

443
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,640
Speaker 7: coffin last night. In our text chain, would you say

444
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 7: Superman's dead?

445
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 2: Superman is dead? Yep, yeah, Superman is dead.

446
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 3: I mean the Texans they're they're like a unique team,

447
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 3: you know, like I've always said, like I look at

448
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 3: him and I'm like, man, are they doing good this year?

449
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 3: And you look at him and it's like, oh, they're like

450
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 3: at the top of their conference stuff like that. And

451
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 3: last night I think I think I found myself coming

452
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 3: away from that game asking myself the question, is the

453
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 3: Texans defense that good?

454
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 7: Is it?

455
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 3: I mean, it looked they look dominant, but then it

456
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 3: But but the whole point was or is Kansas City

457
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 3: just no?

458
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 2: Are they just not that good? Is I said this before?

459
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 3: I feel like the fear factor of what the Kansas

460
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 3: City Chiefs represent, even in Arrowhead, is waning, like it's

461
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 3: it's it's it's fading away. I think last night might

462
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 3: have been to me, that's like the nail in the

463
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 3: coffin of it's the end of an era.

464
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 2: It's it's like, will.

465
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 3: They be good again? Maybe they'll be good again. Will

466
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 3: they ever be as good as they once were? I

467
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 3: think that that ship has sailed. Andy Reid had his

468
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 3: time and it was an amazing time. Patrick Mahomes had

469
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 3: his time, and it was an amazing time.

470
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 2: It's over.

471
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 5: It's over.

472
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 3: It's over. It's that's it. It's a rap. Johnny godmn,

473
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,160
Speaker 3: the movie's over. Like that's the credits are coming up.

474
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 7: Oh hey, by the way, Coop's clapping by the seat.

475
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 7: I wish people could see Coop. Hey, take a bound.

476
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 6: He's wearing a Broncos poncho.

477
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 2: It's a team.

478
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 3: That's a team, that's a team of the future. Yeah yeah,

479
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, man, go ahead, Coop, go ahead, get

480
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 3: it out.

481
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,199
Speaker 2: This is one of the greatest takes you've ever had.

482
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 2: The arguin you're you're on fire. Keep going. I don't

483
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 2: want to. Hey, listen, I'm looking at the highlights.

484
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 4: Like.

485
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 2: There were a lot of drops last night.

486
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 3: I mean, they didn't help the case of what Patrick

487
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,400
Speaker 3: Mahomes could have been if those guys were catching the ball.

488
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 3: I mean, even Kelsey's drop led to a to a

489
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,719
Speaker 3: turnover going on everyone.

490
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 2: Oh it's over for Kelsey. He'd been checked out.

491
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 3: He just getting that checking for a little bit longer.

492
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 3: And then once once he say, I do the numbctuals

493
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 3: like finally one for the good.

494
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 6: Guys to thanks man five years in Canton.

495
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 2: Guys can go dig too, you know what I mean?

496
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 2: Why not? But anyway, it's over? Why not?

497
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 3: It's over for the Chiefs though, like their streak is

498
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 3: going to come to an end. It's ended, right, it

499
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 3: was effectively ended last night of them winning a conference title.

500
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 3: It's it's going to end on them going to a playoff,

501
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 3: which ultimately ends what they've been able to accomplish in

502
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 3: the playoffs. I think now you just got to ask

503
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 3: yourself the question is this is this considered to be

504
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 3: a dynasty because what they what they've done, what they've

505
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 3: done is like, to me, it's a rap. So you

506
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 3: got to base it off of what they've already done,

507
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 3: not what they're going to do.

508
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a pretty decent run.

509
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 2: I mean there's always the chance.

510
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 3: I mean, look, Brady resurfaced and became a winner after

511
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 3: what was it like seven eight years?

512
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 6: You'd like think about this Patrick Mahomes since he.

513
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 5: Took gone to Super Bowls and lost, Like that's.

514
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 7: The difference, Patrick Mahomes since he's taken over as a

515
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 7: starter when he took over for Alex Smith.

516
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 2: As always.

517
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 7: At worse, they're in the AFC title game and they

518
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 7: lose it over time.

519
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 6: At worse, that's all so like this now that at.

520
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:29,679
Speaker 3: Worst has gone really really really like like far away

521
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 3: from there.

522
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 7: At worst Yeah, now at worst is we're not making

523
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 7: the playoffs this year.

524
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we're actually considered to not be a good team.

525
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 7: At worse, it's just been a while since offensively they've

526
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 7: looked decent consistently, Like there's been a couple of games,

527
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 7: but it's been a while since they've looked okay and

528
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 7: a consistently good offense. It feels like the defense has

529
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 7: been carrying that this because aired b enemy man up top.

530
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, damn up. What they had not been the

531
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 3: same since Eric Benemy. It's no time to say it.

532
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 7: And by the way, Eric enemy running backs coach in

533
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 7: Chicago for the Bears, why they run the ball, that's right.

534
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 2: I mean the Bears is on fire this year.

535
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 3: I mean they let it get away yesterday but I'll

536
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 3: tell you what, it was a hell of a game

537
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,719
Speaker 3: and it's fun. It was a fun game. It was

538
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 3: finally a fun game to watch Green Bay and the Bears.

539
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 3: How about that? Just I was I was waiting for

540
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 3: cut to jump on it. I know he was ready

541
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 3: to jump on it. Are you ready to jump on it?

542
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 5: He's right? Think about it. They have not won a

543
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 5: Super Bowl h and more than one year after Pan

544
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 5: to me left.

545
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a great point.

546
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 5: I mean they waned the year after he left. It

547
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 5: went again in twenty twenty four, So you could say, like,

548
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 5: was Eric Vietemy the reason for their success?

549
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 2: He was part of doubt, he was part of it.

550
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 5: That's he was part of it, without a doubt. He

551
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 5: was part of it.

552
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of people tried to minimize him and

553
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 2: say red it was Andy Reid, it's.

554
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 5: Andy Reid, It's Patrick Mahomes up top, Yeah, up top.

555
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 5: But meanwhile, all they've done since he's left is go

556
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 5: to the Super Bowls.

557
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 7: So yeah, on befa Alfa, Brady and I would like

558
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:19,400

Speaker 5: know why people think that's like being uh, you know,

588
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 5: smoke or like going after it with people.

589
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 4: About what guy's not playing in the bowl.

590
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 5: Game, which again you've always said that, so you know, to.

591
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 4: Ask you that that's what that's what the amazing thing

592
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 4: is you finally have come over to my thought.

593
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 5: First off, I've never I've never disagreed with you. We've

594
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 5: talked about that in regards to like the playoffs one thing,

595
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 5: but not like these exhibition games.

596
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 4: Right, that's all they are exhibition games exactly.

597
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 5: And I've said that with you. Yeah, I'll put it

598
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 5: this way. I'll put it this way. I really thought

599
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 5: you were going to get on and make this statement,

600
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 5: which you have not so far, but you will. When

601
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 5: college football, which is the pageantry of the history, the

602
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 5: history of the tradition, all that, there's so many really

603
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 5: cool things about it. This is the ugly part about

604
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 5: it now is when you compare it to what the

605
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 5: NFL is, outside of the fact that it's you know,

606
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 5: bigger markets and all that stuff, is the NFL actually

607
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 5: is able to determine like they're champion in a manner

608
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 5: that like there's no disputing it. Everyone pretty much agrees

609
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 5: with it. Maybe we'd say, like, hey, if you win

610
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 5: your division with a losing record, maybe you shouldn't host homefield.

611
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,719
Speaker 5: I don't know, But for the most part, it's a

612
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 5: format that we all agree with. I don't know that

613
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 5: anyone's ever been happy with the playoff at four teams

614
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 5: twelve teams regardless. So this is the one ugly part

615
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 5: I think of college football that NFL easily has over

616
00:32:59,080 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 5: college football.

617
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 4: But yeah, you went in on the field and you

618
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 4: don't have a you don't have a beauty pageant, judges

619
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 4: deciding who goes and who doesn't.

620
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 5: I mean that's that's or or another way of putting it.

621
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 5: You don't have like Las Vegas and Cleveland and get

622
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 5: a couple of spots to play in the playoffs when

623
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 5: they're already out of it kind of you know what

624
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 5: I'm saying, Like like a lesser level team getting in

625
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 5: where you know they're not gonna have any shot at winning.

626
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 5: It's just like, hey, we're glad you had a great season.

627
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 5: Let's see how things go here.

628
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 4: Look and this this isn't I know you're taught not

629
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 4: talking just because Notre Dame got left out, because by

630
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 4: the way, Notre Dame should be in. Alabama should be out, period,

631
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:36,479
Speaker 4: end of story. That's the way it should be.

632
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 5: As Obama fan, most people watch the games, they go, yeah,

633
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 5: this BAMA team is not a Nick Saban Damita team.

634
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 5: They're not very good.

635
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, No, and the quarterback is regressed in a

636
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 4: big way in the last five weeks and can't start

637
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 4: it on. It should be Notre Dame and Miami. But

638
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 4: if you really want to get down to it, let

639
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,239
Speaker 4: me come on, James Madison and Tulane. If you were

640
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 4: having the true playoff, they wouldn't be in. That's the reality.

641
00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 4: You know. You get.

642
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 2: Shot, they fired, shake, grenade thrown.

643
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, seriously, this isn't.

644
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 3: This isn't special seasons can't be rewarded with having an

645
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 3: opportunity to see.

646
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,720
Speaker 2: I am thoroughly intrigued.

647
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 3: To see if they get their asses beat like everybody

648
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 3: thinks they are, or they pull off an upset somebody

649
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 3: at some point, at some at some point, somebody's going

650
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 3: to have an upset. I'm just saying somebody's gonna I

651
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 3: would love for it.

652
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 4: It'd be like in the old days when they used

653
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 4: to have the Cinderella in March.

654
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 2: Man.

655
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 4: If they win a game in the first round and

656
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 4: they get plastered by forty the next week, I mean,

657
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 4: come on, it doesn't work. And you do you think

658
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:44,760
Speaker 4: James Madison or tou Lane as a shot.

659
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 2: Do you seriously they're there. They aren't the right to

660
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 2: be there, aren't the right everybody.

661
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 3: Hey, listen, you gotta wake up, and you gotta put

662
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 3: one foot down on the floor, one out down, one

663
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 3: out of time, just like the other team does. Just

664
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 3: like the other team does.

665
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 4: They barely won their championship the other night. I mean,

666
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 4: come on, and it shouldn't.

667
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:07,879
Speaker 2: Be, but they want it.

668
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 5: We'll also point out this to LeVar that I don't

669
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 5: know if he's aware again. Ole Miss played you know,

670
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 5: this matchup already this season where they saw the outchey

671
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 5: you said.

672
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 3: It, They realized they get they get another go at it,

673
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 3: They get to redeem themselves. What if they go out

674
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:27,839
Speaker 3: there and spank them boys like.

675
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 5: Join the AC and they wipe the floor of the

676
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 5: a C every year and they get the automatic bid

677
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 5: who's that who? As I'm saying, like a team's basically

678
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 5: you just join a lower yet one repeated and then

679
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 5: they go in every year.

680
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 4: You're right, it's a bad it's a bad system. We

681
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 4: know that. And it's and and the whole college football

682
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 4: system is bad.

683
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,879
Speaker 5: Right now, let's let's not get ahead of ourselves. Because

684
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 5: LeVar said something Pete that I think you're gonna love.

685
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,720
Speaker 5: He believes that the Chiefs are done. That's a rep

686
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 5: put a fork him is he's calling it. He's who

687
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 5: man seth Rickersham esque like calling the Patriots before they

688
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 5: actually were truly done. But LeVar is calling them put

689
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 5: a fork and un they're done.

690
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 4: They're done, wait done this year or done period?

691
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:13,800
Speaker 2: Done forever? Done?

692
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:17,800
Speaker 4: Oh my god, that's ridiculous. They still mahomes Are you serious?

693
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,439
Speaker 2: Non Superman is dead?

694
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 4: Bruh, Okay, let me ask you this. Let me ask

695
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 4: you this. That's a pretty good Texans defense, right they

696
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 4: played with dout three offensive lineman really good and they

697
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,479
Speaker 4: still had a chance, they still had a real chance

698
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,280
Speaker 4: to win that game. They're done forever, LeVar?

699
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 2: At what point?

700
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,919
Speaker 3: At what point do we don't LeVar me like like like, oh,

701
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 3: my gosh. Your point is, hey, look here, Pete. I

702
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 3: said it, and I mean it what I see down

703
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 3: that Kansas City Chiefs game was a must win game

704
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 3: for them. I've said it all along. The fair factor

705
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 3: of the Kansas City Chiefs. The mastique has worn out,

706
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 3: it has run its course.

707
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 2: Look at the tread. If you put a quarter.

708
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 3: In there and you can see the the head of

709
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 3: George Washington, you need a new tire. This team's tires

710
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 3: are bolting. It's done. It's done. The Kansas City Chiefs

711
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:22,359
Speaker 3: ran it must win at home and you can't win

712
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 3: in Kansas City Kingdom.

713
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:25,800
Speaker 2: It's done.

714
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 4: Well, they're done it. They're probably done this year. But

715
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 4: done as in done with number fifteen playing quarters. Yes

716
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 4: they're done.

717
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,399
Speaker 3: Yes, done as in done, as in the code has

718
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 3: been cracked, and now that their defense isn't bailing them

719
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 3: out so that people can continue to talk about how

720
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 3: good Patrick Mahomes is when he's been bailed out the

721
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 3: last couple of years by the defense to begin with, Yes,

722
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 3: even Patrick Mahomes, it is done.

723
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 2: Done. Put a fork in to make sure.

724
00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 4: Let's make sure you clip this in about five years

725
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 4: from that, let's pull it back out again and then

726
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 4: we can all laugh in LaVar strace how about that?

727
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 3: And you know what this is media. So I don't

728
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 3: care like if it changes. If three four years from

729
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,959
Speaker 3: now they become a good team again, I'll lie. I'll

730
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 3: just say you know what I said, that they would

731
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,240
Speaker 3: be back all along, that's all. I don't have, no problem.

732
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:25,760
Speaker 3: I can have revisionist history. It's two three years from.

733
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 2: Now, LeVar, I'm joking.

734
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 3: I am joking, but I am not joking about them

735
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 3: being done. They are done, just.

736
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 2: So clear probably done.

737
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 4: They're probably done this year, but they're not done, done, done,

738
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,839
Speaker 4: not as long as quarterback you're out of your mind.

739
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 2: That's a safe it's a safe assessment. Pete.

740
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,359
Speaker 7: Let me ask you about another team that I think

741
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 7: is not only done this year, but has put themselves

742
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 7: in a tough spot. So when the Colts made the

743
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 7: move to trade for sauce Gardner and they gave up

744
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 7: what they gave up to get him, the thought was,

745
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,720
Speaker 7: you know, we're pretty much going all in this year.

746
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 7: Then Daniel Jones has a broken fibula, then he tears

747
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 7: his achilles, sauce Gardner is banged up. Now that feels

748
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 7: like they really rolled the dice, and if you compare

749
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 7: their first half of the season to what the second

750
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 7: half has looked like so far, they're also not going

751
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 7: to make the playoffs and have set themselves back with

752
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 7: the moves they made for years to come.

753
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 4: It feels like, yeah, they're done. And by the way,

754
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 4: they were going to have a tough time whether Daniel

755
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 4: Jones was in the lineup anyways. I mean, I thought

756
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,320
Speaker 4: they were going to lose yesterday and you know, he

757
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 4: threw a terrible interception to start the game. And then

758
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 4: look at their schedule. I mean they went they were

759
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 4: going to Seattle next week, They have the Niners and

760
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,280
Speaker 4: the Texans left. I mean, the schedule is just brutal.

761
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 4: And so I thought they were done anyways, but now

762
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 4: with him not being there, they're really done. And here's

763
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 4: the other part of it. You talk about that trade

764
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,280
Speaker 4: for Sauce Gardner. You know, the last time the Colts

765
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:56,280
Speaker 4: won the division, Andrew Luck was the quarterback. Every team

766
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 4: in the division has won it at least twice since

767
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 4: they've last won it. So if you look at Chris

768
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 4: Ballard and what he's done, I think that you know,

769
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 4: you make that move because you are all in and

770
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,839
Speaker 4: now you're all in and you don't have those draft picks,

771
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 4: so they have big problems, no question about it. You know,

772
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 4: I don't. You guys know an Achilles better than me.

773
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 4: But it's easy get to play next year with that?

774
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 4: Can he play next.

775
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,240
Speaker 3: That's what I was saying. He walked off the field though,

776
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 3: so I don't know. That's and we I brought that

777
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 3: up earlier. I don't know the severity of the tier.

778
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 3: I think it all depends on the severe If he

779
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,839
Speaker 3: fully ruptured it, that's going to take a little while.

780
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 5: That's I do believe that's gonna ask. I don't know

781
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 5: the severity either. But it's kind of like an a

782
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 5: c l if it's partially torn or fully torn. Aren't

783
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,840
Speaker 5: you just going back and reattaching regardless, Like it's you

784
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 5: have surgery, You.

785
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:45,359
Speaker 2: Do have it.

786
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 3: No, you do have to re It's different if you

787
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 3: have to pull it down out of the calf muscle.

788
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 7: Pete LeVar said earlier that it's going to take Dana

789
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 7: Jones longer to come back because he's white.

790
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:57,240
Speaker 6: What are your thoughts?

791
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, he said he doesn't recover as well.

792
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 4: Nor is the idea, what the hell he's doing.

793
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 5: Is a better show.

794
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 3: The fact that you went went along with what they

795
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 3: just did, and you you you said that about me.

796
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:15,880
Speaker 3: The way you did it shows what our relationship dynamic

797
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 3: is be. You know what, you'll sell me out. I

798
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 3: get it now, all right, I got you, I get it.

799
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 5: You get uncomfortable.

800
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 4: I thought they were trying to stir the poduct, all right,

801
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 4: and here you get uncomfortable.

802
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:28,360
Speaker 5: Can we talk about the Jaguars though?

803
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 4: Yeah? What about them?

804
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,800
Speaker 5: I mean, you are the mayor of Jacksonville. You could see,

805
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 5: you know, their coaches fired up after the game. Trevor

806
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 5: Lawrence playing better in a sloppy, sloppy weather game.

807
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 6: I don't know.

808
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 5: I just talk to me about your Jaguars, Man nine

809
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 5: and four bawling right now.

810
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 4: Well, they're not my Jaguars. But the reality is is

811
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 4: that they're going to win the division and and and

812
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:52,839
Speaker 4: they're gonna have a chance to be the number two seed.

813
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 4: They go to Denver in a couple of weeks. In

814
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 4: that game could decide who's the number two seeds. So look,

815
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 4: he's done a great job with that team. And one

816
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 4: thing that's kind of I don't know if everybody's overlooking it,

817
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 4: but getting to Kobe Myers has helped the entire offense

818
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 4: because Trevor Lawrence trusts him, he knows what he's going

819
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 4: to do, he knows where he's going to be. And

820
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:14,399
Speaker 4: not only that, Jakobe Myers has helped Brian Thomas. He's

821
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 4: a pros pro and Brian Thomas is now starting to

822
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 4: make plays. And so I think that offense has come alive.

823
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 4: And you know, defensively they're number one in the league

824
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 4: against the run, and are they that good? And that

825
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:27,879
Speaker 4: you know, probably not when you look at it, man

826
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,879
Speaker 4: the man, they're not, but that guy's done a really

827
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,919
Speaker 4: good job Campanelli with that defense. And so look they're

828
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,879
Speaker 4: gonna be in a year when nobody's that good. They're

829
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 4: capable of making a little run. Just as like, just

830
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 4: like anybody else in the league. Is who in the

831
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 4: AFC when you look at it on paper, who in

832
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 4: the AFC is a team that you fear? Do you

833
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 4: fear the Patriots or the Broncos?

834
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 6: Hoston Houston? Know that's Houston.

835
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 5: Houston will give you problems and is going to give.

836
00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 2: A lot of we got problem you stad.

837
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 4: But I mean, but Jacksonville led that by nineteen in

838
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,759
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter about a month ago and blew the game. Look,

839
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 4: there's no great team. I think it's going to be

840
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 4: the most wide open AFC playoffs we seen it a

841
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 4: long time, and probably even in the NFT.

842
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 5: Can we talk about the Eagles then, because we got

843
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,919
Speaker 5: a Monday night football matchup tonight. It feels like their

844
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:22,799
Speaker 5: backs are somewhat against the wall the way they've been

845
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 5: playing of late. But you can make maybe the same

846
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 5: case about the Chargers. Give us a little preview of

847
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 5: how you have picked this game, how you see a

848
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:30,960
Speaker 5: plan out.

849
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the Eagles are gonna win that game.

850
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 4: I think the Chargers you talked about the Chargers are

851
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,560
Speaker 4: in trouble. The Chargers are in trouble. Line you know,

852
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:39,840
Speaker 4: I mean they're desperate. Yeah, the offensive line the mess

853
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 4: and they you know, they put the salary in at

854
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,239
Speaker 4: left tackle last week and he did a better job

855
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,239
Speaker 4: than everybody else who played over there. But they still

856
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 4: have major issues on the offensive line. Plus you know, Brady,

857
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 4: you would know this better than me. But the hand injury,

858
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 4: how is that going to impact him when he's being Yeah,

859
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 4: and so it changes the way you play a little bit.

860
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,280
Speaker 4: I think the Eagles they've had. Obviously, they got blown

861
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 4: off the ball last week against the Bears. I mean

862
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:05,719
Speaker 4: they were just hammered in the run game. And now

863
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 4: you've got to go back out and play a team

864
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 4: that really doesn't run the ball very well. So I

865
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 4: think that place to them, even without Jalen Carter, I

866
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 4: think the offense will get going. Give the ball to Barkley.

867
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 4: Gives the ball to Barkley, Give the ball to Barkley.

868
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,919
Speaker 4: Stop with the receivers complaining and you know, moping, even

869
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 4: when they catch eight for one point thirty. I mean,

870
00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,280
Speaker 4: just stop it and go give the ball to Barkley.

871
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 4: You go win the game. I think the Eagles win

872
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 4: the game. I think they're the more physical team tonight.

873
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 6: Pete Presco joining us here on Fox Sports Radio.

874
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 2: Go ahead, no good, Pete.

875
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 7: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who you spoke glowingly about in

876
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:44,759
Speaker 7: your training camp tours before the year, look like a

877
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:46,319
Speaker 7: shell of themselves as well too.

878
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:48,120
Speaker 6: I don't know what the hell.

879
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 7: That was against New Orleans or were they eight and

880
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 7: a half point favorites or something along those lines at

881
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,320
Speaker 7: home ending up losing outright. But now all of a

882
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 7: sudden they find themselves in a fight in a division

883
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 7: they should have walked through with the Carolina Panthers. What

884
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 7: do you make of the Tampa Bay struggles.

885
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Baker Mayfield's hurt and at worse than

886
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 4: he's leading on. And because since he's been hurt, you

887
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,839
Speaker 4: know officially, which happened in the Rams game, he hadn't

888
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,000
Speaker 4: played very well. And I think he got hurt in

889
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 4: the forty nine Ers game before that, and just you know,

890
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,360
Speaker 4: he starts a competitor at times he's not going to

891
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 4: come out. I heard he didn't even want to come

892
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 4: out of the Rams game and he was you know,

893
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 4: couldn't even throw the football. So I think he's hurt

894
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:28,120
Speaker 4: not playing well. I think the injuries have taken their

895
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 4: toll in a lot of ways. I mean, yesterday played

896
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 4: without worst at left tackle. He's one of the best

897
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,320
Speaker 4: in the business, didn't play. They've been playing without the

898
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:36,359
Speaker 4: right guard all year. They had it, you know, early

899
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 4: in the season, they didn't have anybody on that offensive line.

900
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 4: He was supposed to play in their normal position. Mike

901
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 4: Evans isn't there. And that's the thing about Mike Evans,

902
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 4: you know, I asked one time during the summer I

903
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 4: asked Baker about it, and he said, look, our offense.

904
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 4: You know what our offense is Mike Evans in the

905
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 4: run game. Mike Evans in the run game, and Mike

906
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 4: Evans isn't there, and that changes the whole dynamic of

907
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:58,720
Speaker 4: their offense. And defensively, they don't rush the passer well enough.

908
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 4: You know, they thought Reddick would come in there and

909
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,839
Speaker 4: really cuse it up, and he hasn't and he's been time.

910
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:08,360
Speaker 4: So here's the thing. Get win the two games against Carolina.

911
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 4: You're in the playoffs. Get ready for the playoffs. That's

912
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 4: as simple as it is for them, and they could

913
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 4: win it different ways. But if they win two games

914
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 4: against Carolina and they play them the two weeks, once

915
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:19,279
Speaker 4: at Carolina and then at the end of the year

916
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,959
Speaker 4: at home, they'll be in the playoffs. And it's all

917
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 4: about getting right for the playoffs. And by then you

918
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:24,799
Speaker 4: should have Mike Evans back.
