I 10 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: want to start for the Packers. Now third down and 11 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:41,639 Speaker 1: goal and Zone's caught Paul Win touchdown. Flint's coming off 12 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:47,160 Speaker 1: the edge, passed hard, touchdown Dixon perfectly laid out fair 13 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: by Russell Wilson. Twenty seven, twenty four Seahawks over the Packers. 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm Greg Rosenthal alongside uh my fellow scientist Chris wesseleyn 15 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna send it over to Dan Hansis and Mark 16 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 1: Sessler in preview all the week eleven games in just 17 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: a bit. But first we got to talk about what 18 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: felt to me like the first game of the end 19 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: of the season, Like this was the first game where 20 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: it's a little cold there. It's two teams on the ropes. 21 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: It's a really great back and forth matchup between two 22 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,279 Speaker 1: great quarterbacks. It was the first game of the season 23 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: that felt late to me, and the Packers ended up 24 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: coming up really small at late in this game. Yeah, 25 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: it was also a loser goes home game, and sure, 26 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: mathematically the Packers aren't out of it. And you know 27 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: you can. If you're a Packers fan, you can talk 28 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: yourself into the run the table. I for the first time, 29 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: I'm out. I agree with you. McCarthy's gotta go. The 30 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: game management was horrendous, um from the uh neglecting to 31 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: challenge Tyler Lockets thirty thirty four yard completion that ended 32 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: up with the game winning touchdown to Ed Dixon a 33 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: couple of plays later, to punting with four minutes left 34 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: and just one time out remaining, which meant Seattle could 35 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: just pick up two first downs and end the game too. 36 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: You know, the disconnect with his quarterback and situational football. 37 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, I have never in all my time watching 38 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: football begged the quarterback to take a checkdown until this game. 39 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers just refused to take a checkdown, and that 40 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: situational football. I don't know how much of that is 41 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: on his cock sure, impro improv improv I don't I 42 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: can't say his playing style or or McCarthy's stale offense 43 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: where the receivers just aren't open. I don't know. But 44 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 1: Aaron Aaron Jones was open for checkdowns. He was out 45 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: a couple of the late drives. It was a tough 46 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: second half for Aaron Rodgers. He said on the final 47 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: throw he threw uh into the dirt, a wide open 48 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: receiver on third and two, that the ball kind of 49 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: stuck to his hand on that play, and you would 50 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: have loved to see McCarthy go for And that's why 51 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: I do think McCarthy is gonna get replaced assuming they 52 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: don't make the playoffs. Is it's not just that they 53 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: blow the time out so you don't call the challenges 54 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: and you know you're counting on these isolation routes and 55 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 1: these young receivers to get open on their own. It's 56 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: that you don't have a feel of your own team, 57 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: you don't have a feel of the game that's in 58 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: front of you. The two previous drives that the Seahawks had, 59 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: they went up and down the field and through the 60 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: packers like they weren't even there. They were down four 61 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: starters total going into the game. The Packers defense had 62 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: lost Mike Daniels in this game, they lost Bashad Brelan, 63 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: they lost another reserve uh safety in the game. They 64 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: Kenny Clark was in and out at the end of 65 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: the game. And so that's why, Okay, we need two yards. 66 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: Let's trust Aaron Rodgers. And I've made this point before 67 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: in the podcast. But if you don't get the two yards, 68 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: your defense that you think can get a three and 69 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: out can still get a three and out and try 70 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: to force them to to kick a longer field goal. 71 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: So that killed me, But it also killed me as 72 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: someone who you know is wanting the Packers to make 73 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,119 Speaker 1: a run here to see their offense only score three 74 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: points on five possessions in the second half, and and 75 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: some of that was on Rogers. I gotta admit, this 76 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: is a game where he made two of the best 77 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: throws you'll see all season, and a few other great plays, 78 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: but also, like you mentioned, was taken too many sacks, 79 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: holding onto the ball too long, and I was rooting 80 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: for him because I locked him up with not a 81 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: good sign for any team these days. A certain segment 82 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: of of Packers Twitter and their fan base has been 83 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: saying this all year that has been an issue and 84 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: that we've been overrating Rogers and maybe we have, and 85 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: maybe that's a byproduct of watching condensed on game pass 86 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: that we don't see situational football as much, because this 87 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: has been an issue and I've been calling it nebulous 88 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: things like they seem to be able to move the 89 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: ball at will until they can't, but that situational football, 90 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: and it's a problem. Well, he also threw thirty passes 91 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: for three thirty two yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions. You know, 92 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: he was spectacular. Yeah, for for I'd say you can't 93 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: look past that on first and second downs he was. 94 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: He was spectacular. And Aaron Jones to get eighty eight 95 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: yards and two touchdowns in the first half and become 96 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: an afterthought right in the game, That's what I mean. 97 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: It's it's third and two in that late situation, and 98 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: you don't, you know, you could that should be four 99 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: downs you you have been saying it the Saints have 100 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 1: an advantage because they're playing with four downs. You're telling 101 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: me Aaron Jones wasn't gonna pick up two yards if 102 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: they run the ball in one of the run plays, 103 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: or run it on either of those two plays. But 104 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: you do have to give the seahous least just now 105 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: getting used to Mike McCarthy is just now getting used 106 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: to playing Andrew Jones. He's not yet ready to Aaron 107 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: give him. Yeah, Aaron Jones, He's not ready to give 108 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: him the ball with the game on the line. I mean, 109 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: there was a lot going on in this game. There 110 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: were some crazy calls by the officials. A huge miss 111 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: to pass, interference call on Bobby Wagner, just absolutely huge. 112 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: There there was the mis challenge that maybe maybe McCarthy 113 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 1: didn't get a good look at it, uh, And there 114 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: were some rough throws by Russell Wilson. But there were 115 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: also some beautiful throws when it really mattered in the 116 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, including on the play before the long throw 117 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: to lock it, which was also very nice, the one 118 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,679 Speaker 1: that that didn't get overturned. He made a gorgeous throw 119 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: on third and nine to lock it in tight coverage, 120 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: and that that's what six and a half minutes left. 121 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: It's a key part of the game. That's a beauty 122 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: third and nine on the goal line. He knows just 123 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: what to do when he sees the formation, that's for 124 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 1: the game winning touchdown. So you have to give Wilson 125 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: and their defense a lot of credit after falling down 126 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: fourteen three and it almost could have been seventeen nothing early, 127 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: for coming back in the final three quarters and really 128 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 1: being the better team that there was that David Moore 129 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: play that got challenged and even though it appeared that 130 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: the ball is Joscelyn between his chest and arm the 131 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: entire time, they did not, they still called it a 132 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: completion and and that one, I guess could have gone 133 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: either way. It looked incomplete to me. But um, Seattle 134 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: got the brakes in this game. And but that's this 135 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: is why, you know, that's why I love the NFL, 136 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: And this is why, uh, this is the best time 137 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 1: of year because these two teams they're not winning the 138 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: Super Bowl this year, but they gave us an entertainment. 139 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: They gave us a lot. There were so many different 140 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: plays throughout the game, good, bad, everything that you could 141 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: have gotten into. And you know, I know, you say 142 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: they're the Packers are done, and yeah, of course they're 143 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: probably done. They also play the Vikings next week. So 144 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: if they beat the Vikings, are you telling me they're done. 145 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. That's a conversation probably for next week. 146 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: With their game management and situational football, I think they're done. 147 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm just saying that's non game away. If you beat 148 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: the Packers next Vikings next week, are you done. I 149 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: don't think their problems can be solved. They seem to 150 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: be philosophical and deeply ingrained. Well maybe, uh Aaron Rodgers 151 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: and Packers fans are taken one for the team this year, 152 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: and it will be a better day when Mike McCarthy 153 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: gets replaced in the off season. But until then, we 154 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: gotta look ahead. We gotta look to week eleven, and 155 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: for that, let's send it over. It's a Danny boy 156 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: be Around the NFL Podcast, Dan, Greg West, Mark, Welcome 157 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: to another edition I mean Around is the Podcast.

Because 176 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: you're oh you're driving the night okay, because she's alone. 177 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: There's a bit of a yeah, little little back. So 178 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: I didn't mean to do that.

But you've been hurt, is 181 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: what you're hitting out? Yeah, it's gonna be a lonely 182 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: holiday season. I did I um, I've been in that 183 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: boat before. If you break up right before Christmas, it 184 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: is I wouldn't worry. I wouldn't wish it on my 185 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 1: worst enemy. Erica. Thanks Dan. I know guys who broke 186 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: up with their girlfriends back in the day just to 187 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: get out of buying a gift as a bad guy. 188 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 1: Multiple guys that Ricky, Ricky, this is the better way 189 00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: to look at it, because I don't want you to 190 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: be sad or loneliest holiday season. Maybe with this time 191 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: that we have the parties in about a month, cultivate 192 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: something and then all of a sudden, by time that 193 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: party hits you're already kind of in the early stages 194 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: of a beautiful new relationship. Yeah, that's that's the plan. 195 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: I gotta you know, got a g suite set up 196 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: already with perspective. Nothing. Nothing would be better, you know, 197 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: for a very early stages of any relationship than to 198 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: introduce that person to all of us and everyone at work. 199 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: Nothing could be well the one I mean, this whole party, 200 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: this whole situation. I think it's a smart move by 201 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: the league because I know it probably costs more in 202 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: all that business, but definitely, but it's gonna put a 203 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: massive lid on what would be one of the drunkest 204 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: nights of the year for many many people. Now, you 205 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: you can't operate in that fashion for the most part, 206 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: not everyone, but I'd stand in there are a large 207 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: portion of people are gonna be like, oh, it's time 208 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: to go. Guys, we've been for eight years. Wait, why 209 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: don't you think if you have people, they're like, if 210 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: you're with your significant other in a get more loose. 211 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: You know. I just think that when it's just because 212 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: it's there's a little bit of an edge to these 213 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: parties when it's just the employees and you. And there 214 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: was also anger that you're never allowed to bring a 215 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: guest and you'd go there and people would there would 216 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: be nothing to do that You've already talked to these 217 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: people all day long, and then to get simply hammered 218 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: beyond comprehension. Now there's a whole extra layer of I 219 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: think we'll be Yeah, I think you'll be able to 220 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: overcome this obstitcle still get hammered, gotten comprehension. We've marked 221 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: we could do it. We've had a I won't say 222 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: who the person is, but they've been on this podcast report. 223 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: We've had to put somebody in a cab because they 224 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 1: got a little out of control. We once left a 225 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: man on the side of the road slumped at a 226 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,720 Speaker 1: bus stop because it was just time to go. Ye. 227 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,959 Speaker 1: Notice we were the responsible ones in both situations leaving 228 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: people out of bus stop. Maybe not so much in 229 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: that one, but in the first one we helped the 230 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: presence of Emily and Simone will keep the sizzler and 231 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: the old juicer and check a little bit. I I 232 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: just I think that's not a bad thing, but I 233 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: do see that as a reality. Um, you heard right 234 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: at the top of the show, West and Greg the 235 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: scientists breakdown Packers Seahawks. But that's not all we're gonna 236 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,359 Speaker 1: talk about today. We have the rest of week eleven 237 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: uh to dig into as we preview the last slate 238 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: of games before Thanksgiving. And everybody knows everybody knows Dog 239 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: the season on the start until after Thanksgiving, which on 240 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: some levels is completely malarkey, but also it does get 241 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,839 Speaker 1: real after Thanksgiving. But this is a big week, Greg, 242 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: because these are the weeks the teams that are kind 243 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: of hovering or maybe a game under at five hundred, 244 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,439 Speaker 1: they put themselves in a really bad position if if 245 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: they lose at this stage of the season and start 246 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: to fall further behind that five hundred buy the Thanksgiving bit, Dog, Well, yeah, 247 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: you can't come in. You can't be like, hey, it's 248 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: post Thanksgiving, we're two and nine, right, but their season 249 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: never exists. Yeah, it never happened. They were never in 250 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: the mix. But after Thanksgiving you can start. That's when 251 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: you can start cry. Send some of these teams off 252 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: and when the games feel crossing them off way before things. 253 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: Yeah that feels late to me. But four and six, 254 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: you know, five and seven, like, there's no coming back 255 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: from these type of things. So you gotta get dubs 256 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: and we're gonna go through all these teams, including some 257 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: teams that are in that danger zone. You know, maybe 258 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: there's some loser goes home matches. We're gonna go through 259 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: it all. That's what we do. Let us start with 260 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,559 Speaker 1: the early games, as we always do. We like to 261 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: go in order here because that gives a structure. Structure 262 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: is important. We've got to make sure to leave a 263 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: lot of time effort because these ending games, the two 264 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: primetime games this week, there's a couple that we can 265 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: spend a little less. So I was just talking about it. 266 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 1: Here we are the four and five Dallas Cowboys and 267 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 1: the four and five Atlanta Falcons. Uh Mark and the 268 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: Cowboys are coming off uh, perhaps their biggest win of 269 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: the season. They won't go on the road on Sunday 270 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: Night football when you think they're dead after they lose 271 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: two straight games. Uh, and they beat the Eagles, and 272 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: they even convincingly. Um. But here are the Falcons, who 273 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: we all like offensively, but that that lost last week 274 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: to Cleveland really knocked a lot of wind out of 275 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 1: their sales. I thought that was an absolutely killer defeat 276 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: for Atlanta and not right, you have no wiggle room, 277 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: and it's the quintessential four four and five first four 278 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: and five team. The loser of this is in hot water. 279 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: One thing about Atlanta last week because they have been 280 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: so consistently good on offense, and they got their yardage, 281 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: but they didn't get their points. And Cleveland did a 282 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: nice job in that game of shutting down big plays 283 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: with their zone defense. And now you go and face 284 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: a Cowboys number three overall scoring defense that I view 285 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: is completely legitimate, and they're well coached and Matt Ryan 286 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: and I know some of these are historical and we 287 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: don't care about the historical business, but he is one 288 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: and eleven verse top three scoring defenses. It's at home 289 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: that helps a lot they're not. They're not the same 290 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: team on the road the Falcons. That's that's another historical element. 291 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: But which are these two teams? Do you trust more? 292 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: Because right now, I I agree with you. I cannot 293 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: go Atlanta right now and trust of these two. I mean, 294 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: I trust the Falcons because a week ago at this time, 295 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: we were all burying the Cowboys, pouring gasoline on I'm 296 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: saying they were an absolute mess, and for the most part, 297 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: the Falcons offense is what they've been the same the 298 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: whole season. It wasn't the best game in Cleveland, but 299 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: I don't think it was embarrassing, and I think they're 300 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: They're a better team and certainly a better offense than 301 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, who who we saw it for one week. 302 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: But now they're going up against the Falcons defense. Who's 303 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: gonna have Dion Jones back. That's a pretty big deal. 304 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: Everyone said, Okay, the Falcons defense, it's the injuries. That's why. Well, 305 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: Ricardo Allen has been replaced by DeVante CAZy and who's 306 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: played as well as Ricardo Allen, Who's gonna play, He's 307 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: played great. Dion Jones is now back, who's kind of 308 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: the key in that mix. So right now, you're really 309 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: down Kean O'Neil. They haven't been a good defense, but 310 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: they should be better, especially at home. I want to 311 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: see if the Cowboys offense is different now. I mean 312 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: you said two weeks ago we didn't trust him. Well 313 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: a Mari Cooper came in and opened up this offense. 314 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: He opened up room for his Equel Elliott. He's getting 315 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: open almost every route on the outside. And this is 316 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: a different offense now, so I do trust the Cowboys more. 317 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: The Falcons want to play shootouts in that dome, Cowboys 318 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: want to slow the game down. Would be an interesting 319 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: contrast in style. It is because it's in an offense 320 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: defense matchup we've talked about a lot this year. I mean, 321 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: this is the ultimate like good offense versus good defense 322 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: team because because the Cowboys do have a good defense. 323 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: I don't know how far that gets here. This kind 324 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: of screams to me. Two things. I like we're talking 325 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: about we love the Falcons at home at least, and 326 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan is having as good as season as he's 327 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: had concluding the VY m VP campaign. However, Zekel Elliott 328 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: was excellent on Sunday Night, and now he's going into 329 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: a dome and he's gonna face a team that can't 330 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: stop the run. I would not be surprised if we 331 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: get a Zeke Elliott that even surpasses what he did 332 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: against the Eagles, maybe a hundred and seventy five yards 333 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: in total offense in that range. And if the Cowboys 334 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,040 Speaker 1: can get that type of performance, they could be to 335 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: much anybody. Uh, And that's kind of what where I 336 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 1: see this game heading. I think Elliot's gonna have another 337 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: monster game and the Cowboys win. I think to West's point, 338 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: they went since they acquired Cooper, they've gone from twenty 339 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: nine to fifteen and passing yardage and they're able to 340 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 1: now use and they've done us a lot more of 341 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 1: the last two weeks, three wide receiver sets to help 342 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: diskies other stuff they're doing. You're a more functional offense 343 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: than you were. And he looked good, look fine, And 344 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: that's the key part. And this is a great matchup. 345 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: The quarterback is such a mismatch. I did want to 346 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: mention in this game just because it's the Cowboys that 347 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: Jane Slater had to report on Travis Frederick this week. Uh, 348 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: you know the center that's been on injured reserve that 349 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 1: he's just now getting feeling back in his fingers and 350 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: he still has no feeling uh in his feet, which 351 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: is incredible to me that this is not a bigger 352 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 1: story or I guess it's just something you're not gonna 353 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: know about. It's a strange syndrome, but it's it's pretty sad. 354 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: One of the best players in the league and for 355 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: months he has not had feelings in his fingers or 356 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: his feet. Uh. Let us um uvon, gentlemen. The Cincinnati 357 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 1: ben Gals, who really, um, let's face it, got humiliated 358 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: in their own building by the Saints, who drop a 359 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: fifty burger on them. Uh. But there's still five and 360 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: four for all the You know, we dismissed the Bengals, 361 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: but that was a five and three team, So they're 362 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: still okay at five and four. But now they got 363 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: to go get a win and they're gonna be facing 364 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: a desperate, uh free falling Ravens team West. Uh. And 365 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,719 Speaker 1: we don't even know as the time of recording this podcast, 366 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 1: who's going to be the quarterback for for the Ravens. 367 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 1: Is that going to decide who wins this game? To you? No, 368 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 1: I think, to me, this is a test for the 369 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: Ravens if their offense can't get right at home against 370 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 1: this crumbling defense. I'll stop saying they're better than their record, 371 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 1: But to me, it's clear that the November Ravens, even 372 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: off a three game losing streaks, are a much better 373 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: team than the current iteration of the Bengals. Well, I 374 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,959 Speaker 1: don't think we'll see Joe. It would be surprising at 375 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: this point if Joe Flacco played. So Lamar Jackson missed 376 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 1: practice on Thursday with the stomach issue. There was some 377 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: thought by Ian rappaport Are Insider that some sort of 378 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: games are being played here. John Harba is enjoying the 379 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 1: fact that no one seems to know who the starter is. 380 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: My gut feeling is we'll see plenty of Lamar Jackson 381 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: and r G three in in this game. And I 382 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: think the Ravens are a better team, that their defense 383 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: is the best group on the field, and they can 384 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 1: win no matter who's a quarterback. And I feel like 385 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: you could put Raggedy Ann under center. She put up 386 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 1: forty points on the Spengles defense right now. They were 387 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: absolutely devastated in the course of like fifteen minutes last 388 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: week against the against the Saints. And it's not like 389 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: Flacco was a guy that was, you know, tearing up 390 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: the world in the last four or five weeks anyway, 391 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: So it's not the worst thing to see what happens 392 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: if you put a different quarterback under center. Just matter, 393 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 1: are those guys whoever it will be, um, are they 394 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: prepared for the moment, because this is you're You're thrusting 395 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: him into the middle of a playoff race when they 396 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,479 Speaker 1: haven't had really much work at all. Well, Mark's statement 397 00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: about Raggedy Ann inspired me to lock up the raven 398 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: in this game. I don't care who's under center the Bengals, 399 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: You're just not what. But so we've seen the Bengals 400 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 1: for a long time. We have not seen the Bengals 401 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 1: with Hugh Jackson in a long time. So maybe no, 402 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 1: he's working with the defense too. That doesn't help. He's 403 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: working with the defense primarily, he's helping Marvin Lewis on 404 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: the dub. The biggest Bengal's biggest problem to me, or 405 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: at least the most that they've changed, is their offense. 406 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 1: I mean, they were a really good offense early in 407 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: the year and now they've gotten sub mediocre. They looked 408 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 1: pretty poor last week overall, even though Joe Mixon is 409 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: back and looks looks great, their offensive line is not 410 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 1: playing well and they miss Tyler Iford's unlikely not happening, 411 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: not practicing, that's gonna be tough. They're in trouble. There 412 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 1: are a lot of trouble. West. I think you're in good, 413 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: in good shape there with your lock of the week. 414 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 1: Let's move on to Carolina Panthers six and three got 415 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: humbled ate some humble pie Thanksgiving humble by good rough 416 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: early Thanksgiving. Uh, they got a fifty burger burger dropped 417 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: on him. But here's a here's a good way to 418 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 1: get healthy. Uh. Play the Lions who have stopped showing 419 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: up the last three weeks of the season. Greg. So 420 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: here's a battle between two former number one overall picks. 421 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: And we asked on Wednesday show in the mailbag section, 422 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: is Matt Stafford good? All right? Well, Matt Stafford, don't 423 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: win a game and keep your team in convention contention 424 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: this season. Go win a football game. It's a team sport, though, 425 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: you know, win a game. It's a quarterback position. We 426 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: say it all. What's the Vince Lombardi quote? West, Go 427 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 1: win a game. If you're a superstar, if you're one 428 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: of the highest paid players, go nuts. I mean, he 429 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 1: I didn't think that's what is the quote that I'm 430 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: referring to. Its football is the ultimate team game. It's 431 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 1: the best game in the world except for one factor, 432 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: the glaring imbalanced. The quarterback is way too important in 433 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 1: this game, though I don't think they're not. Really that 434 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 1: was nothing like what you said, uh, in this game, 435 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: I don't think that the Panthers have some gigantic quarterback 436 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: edge though. It's just the two quarterbacks are are in 437 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: the same ballpark of it, and one team is way. 438 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 1: But I didn't think Stafford played that battly last week. 439 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: The offensive line was terrible. This team is so different 440 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 1: without Marvin Jones on the field they have They had 441 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: like a hundred and eighty pound guy never heard of. 442 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: You couldn't get open against man coverage last week. And 443 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: I think the Panthers game was a little bit of 444 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: a fluke. And I already you know, made my my 445 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: lock of the week. Um. But this Lions team, it's 446 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: one of the as you said, it's one of the 447 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: worst teams in the league. We've we've kind of been 448 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: thinking they're in the mix because they were three and 449 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 1: three football outsiders there below the Browns. There twenty nine 450 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: in the league, and they were close to that even 451 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: before this three games stretch. And so even though I 452 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: can't lock it up, I know the Panthers are favored 453 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: in this game, and I think this is not gambling advice. No, no, no, 454 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: But even though the Panthers are favored, this is gonna 455 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: be something I'm calling my rainmaker of the week right there. 456 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: What does that means? It's gonna just be rated down 457 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: money if you believe in the Panthers. I'm just saying 458 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. People can jack up that spread doesn't better. 459 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: I'm shocked that it's not significantly more because because I 460 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: and I think it's because the Panthers were just on 461 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 1: national television got wiped out. But that was a flukey game. 462 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: Jones Arvin Jones is a knee injury, not practicing this week. 463 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: Darius like coming back from a knee injury. They missed 464 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: him terribly last week, and I know that Stafford isn't 465 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 1: getting much help, but he's also walking into some sex 466 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 1: now too, holding the ball too long and just walking 467 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: right into the sec whatever Jim Bob Cootter was doing 468 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: that was getting people excited. J no longer not out. 469 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: Don't you think make rying up he was. I feel 470 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: like the other the new coach probably coerced him into 471 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 1: running something a little bit different this year. Maybe I 472 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: don't know, but it's it's not working. This has all 473 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: the makings, and again I would lock this up, but 474 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 1: I don't think I could look in the mirror of 475 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 1: a very good Panthers team that got embarrassed on national 476 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 1: television is now going to take it out on an 477 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: inferior team, so it doesn't matter where they're being playing. 478 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: I think this is a a two to three score 479 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: uh weas in this game, it's a total bounce Baker, 480 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: bring the rain. The Lions are a totally fork able 481 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: bit of nonsense at this point. But the only thing 482 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 1: is I don't just look at the Panthers and give 483 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: them a total mulligan against For that Steelers game, they 484 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: could not get to Big Ben. He was perfection. He 485 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 1: like the the entire that's the best the Steelers have 486 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: looked in a long time. And this Panther's defense, which 487 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: you know if you don't watch them much you just 488 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: assume it's the same Panthers defense, not at all. Remember 489 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: they gave a lot of grief when they weren't in 490 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: the top ten defensive lines back in the summer. I 491 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: remember Panthers fans, players, coaches that got at me after that. 492 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: Where you at? Now you're twenty four in efficiency football outsiders, 493 00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: That's where they're at. Let's move on the Tennessee Tytoons 494 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: riding a two game winning streak and they just spanked 495 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: the defending conference champion, uh Patriots. Uh. And now here's 496 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: another challenge. They got to go to Indianapolis to face 497 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: the Colts team that is playing extremely well. Uh. Mark 498 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: Sessler with a quarterback who's you know, a lot of 499 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: West You you had him high in your list number one, 500 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: I believe comeback player of the Year rank? Yes? Uh? 501 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 1: What about m v P? I mean, is he playing 502 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 1: at this level? This? Now? We talked about you guys 503 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: always asked me ttoons Tytoons? Should I be calling them Titans? 504 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: I like this. You you run a three game winning 505 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: streak together, and you take down Andrew Luck, who's playing 506 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: at the height of his powers. Right now, I'll give 507 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: you some respect. On Sunday, night go through it. You're 508 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 1: you need that to happen, that that would that would 509 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,360 Speaker 1: formerly flip the switch here, Okay, that makes this game 510 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 1: more interesting to me. I want to see it happen. 511 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: This is the West game of the week. This is 512 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 1: this is a different kind of West of this this game. 513 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: But you got the team of West l the Colts 514 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,199 Speaker 1: and you know the Titans who have been you know, 515 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: been on most of the time for the past three 516 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: or four years. If you are, let me unlike Todd 517 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: Bowls in New York, and there's others to these defensive 518 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 1: minded coaches who are their defense aren't aren't aren't even 519 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 1: very good. Mike Rabel has the number one scoring defense, 520 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 1: and the last forty seven of forty eight teams to 521 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: finish with the number one scoring defense made the playoffs. 522 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: So if they hang around with that, they'd either be 523 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 1: the second team to not do that, which would be 524 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: a high embarrassment, or they would he would have it 525 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: as first season the only other team that did that. 526 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,640 Speaker 1: They have never left their homes after it's just too much. 527 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: Seventy seven Falcons. They've been in their house for forty something. 528 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 1: It is a great test because they they're coaching staff 529 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 1: really did do the job against the Patriots that they 530 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: scrambled Brady's brains and more than I think they really 531 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: did anything physically. And that's the interesting thing about it Titans. 532 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: They don't have a lot of guys having standout years. 533 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: I think the secondary is playing well. Dorry Jackson, Kevin 534 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: Buyer and everything can of car The secondary is very 535 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 1: solid other than Malcolm Butler struggles. But can they get 536 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: the Colts offense out of rhythm because if there was 537 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: like a a metric for rhythm, like tempo, that the 538 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 1: Colts to me are the number one team in the 539 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: league in terms of he gets Luck gets to the 540 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 1: back of his drop and he throws the ball. He 541 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: I think they lead the league in that they have 542 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: such tempo. Guys are open, so it's it's not the 543 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: offensive line. I don't think that's changed as much as 544 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: He's get the balls out so quickly to wide open guys. 545 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 1: And they do have the fastest pace in the league. 546 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: There is a stat for that. So they are playing 547 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: fast and defenses don't know what to do. This is 548 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: what we've waited for for like the first time, first 549 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 1: time in Earth history, Andrew Luck is protected well, and 550 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 1: that's been that's been the issue all along. I think 551 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 1: that kind of snuck up on everybody a little bit. 552 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: The Colts now being held as having the best offensive 553 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:51,199 Speaker 1: line potentially in football. I don't feel like people were 554 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: talking about that in August or the summer that that 555 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: it's solved, and so it shows. It goes to show 556 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: you how quickly those coaching can come together and how quickly, 557 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: like Dallas, it can fall apart. But it's so vital 558 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: to the game. Remember the that series I had to 559 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 1: write where I had to pitch why every team in 560 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: the league would make the playoffs, and I wrote the 561 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 1: Colts one and talked about some of the offensive line 562 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: rebuilding and just got lashed on Twitter. I'm gonna find 563 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 1: those tweets. I'm gonna start responding to those people angrily 564 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 1: the minute. The shows your way of saying that you 565 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: knew the Colts offensive line was going to turn it around. 566 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I had to argue that every team would 567 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: make the playoffs. So there's a lot I don't know. 568 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: Luck is helping them out too, because he's a smarter 569 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: I think he came back from this injury almost like 570 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: I wrote about this in the QUB Index this week. 571 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: It's almost like he thought about what type of quarterback 572 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: he wanted to be when he came back from being 573 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: on the sidelines for two years, and he's changed the 574 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: type of quarterback he's He does not hold the ball 575 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 1: that long, he does not use his legs nearly as much, 576 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: but when he does, he moves in the pocket like 577 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: he's young. Philip Rivers and Titoons fans better than that. Yes, 578 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: Tytoons fans noticed that. Um so, I won't be labor it. 579 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: But Andrew Luck is nine and oh in his career 580 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: against the Tennessee Football Club, so they're trying to break 581 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 1: some history there, and um let's move on the Pittsburgh 582 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: Steelers six two and one. Not many teams of football 583 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: are playing as well as this UH ball club right 584 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: now that doesn't have Levy on bell. They will not 585 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 1: have Levy on bell, But who cares because they're doing 586 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: it all anyway. And now they travel to Jacksonville and 587 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 1: they're catching a Jacksonville team west that I would say, oh, 588 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: they're dangerous, and they they gotta say the season, but 589 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: I don't think that's that matters anymore. I think they've 590 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: lost too many games. They're now three and six, They've 591 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: lost six of seven, and it's at the point where 592 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: Steelers get to beat up on maybe a dead team. Here. 593 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: These two teams are going full speed in such drastic 594 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: different directions that nobody even is talking about the fact 595 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: that the Jaguars owned the Steelers last year. Their coaches 596 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: had the Steelers coaching staffs number in those matchups. And 597 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: it doesn't even matter because the Jags are not nearly 598 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: as physically tough this year as they were last year. 599 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: For Net came back and was the offensive focal point 600 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: last week average two point two yards per carry behind 601 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: an offensive line with a third string tackle, and now 602 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: they're starting center is out for the season, and they 603 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: have so many coverage busts on defense. I just don't 604 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: think this is nearly the same Jaguars team that gave 605 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: the Steelers all they can handle in more last year. 606 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: It was telling to me that for Nette was not 607 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,959 Speaker 1: in the game when they were trying to win it. 608 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: It was t J. Yelden and even Carlos Hade a 609 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: little bit. And I know they're playing in hurry up 610 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: at the end of the game, but Yelden was the 611 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: one making some players on that drive that had them 612 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: set up with pretty good position to either beat the 613 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: Cults are at very least send it to overtime, if 614 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 1: not for a nice play by Kennymore. But you mentioned 615 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: the miscommunication when they really missed a j boy. I 616 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 1: don't know if that's practicing the is practicing. I don't 617 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: know if that's the missing piece. But they've had so 618 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: many busts. Jalen Ramsey isn't playing nearly as well. It 619 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 1: just feels like maybe because he's such a talented, outstanding player, 620 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: that just the it's just been such a lost season. 621 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: It seems like Jackson all the frustration probably weighing down 622 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: the eyes. This is how bad they've been in these 623 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: last five games, all losses. They're giving up almost twenty 624 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: nine points a game. This is a historically, of course, 625 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: historically great defense last year, almost twenty nine points a game. 626 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: They're only scoring four teens. So they're getting beat and 627 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: beat soundly on a near weekly basis. You don't see 628 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 1: like the identity of a team with her up and 629 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: vanished this quickly. It happened so rapidly. There's just seems 630 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: like there's a lot of infighting it's a young team 631 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: and when things go wrong sometimes this is what you get. 632 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: And on the opposite side, not to go back to 633 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: that Steelers Panthers game, but the Steelers scored on seven 634 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: of their first day possessions. They looked awesome doing it. 635 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: It's not just the star players. So guys like Vance 636 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: McDonald are making plays. They're getting good tight end work 637 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: like they can protecting Big Ben so well. I just 638 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: I don't know that they're peaking at the right time. 639 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: And the Jaguars are absolutely spiraling into Speaking of Big Ben, 640 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: uh Mark and I handled the recap last year. We 641 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: know the scientists have the opportunity. I'd like to hear 642 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: some c poems about Ben Roethlisberger because the guy was 643 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: absolutely brilliant last week and he's playing He's not gonna 644 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: win VP. He never seems to be in that conversation, 645 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 1: but he's playing Outstanley Well right now, Well, do you 646 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: do you picture the Steelers offense is unstoppable last week? Quite? 647 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 1: I feel like we picture the Saints, Chiefs and Rams 648 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: is unstoppable. And those are the only three offenses in 649 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: the league averaging more points per game than the Steelers. 650 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: I think that we can. It's easy to clump this 651 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: like the Steelers have been doing this for a long time, 652 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 1: so it's not new. It is new from the Chiefs, 653 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: it is relatively new from the Rams, and they had it. 654 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: They had a first impressions means so much, and they 655 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: had a bad first quarter of the season. I think 656 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: if if I was doing those power rankings, to me, 657 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: they are right there with the Saints as the best 658 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: team in the league right now, and I think they 659 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: would be number two to me because kind of the 660 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: reason why I stuck with the Eagles for much of 661 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 1: last year. They were the answer if you ask like 662 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 1: who who has the best combination of offensive line defensive line? 663 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: Who just has the best line play in the NFL? 664 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: And I think the Steelers are the answer to that 665 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: this year in terms of balt side to the ball. 666 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: They're just kind of man handling teams week after week. 667 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: I think the Saints are in that discussion, but the Steeler. 668 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: The one disagreement I've had with PFF this year the 669 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: most has been on Ben Roethlisberger's grade. I think he's 670 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 1: been playing well for most of the season and they 671 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: have him as a blow average quarterback. Is he getting 672 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 1: killed because of like you know, in the opener he 673 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: had five turnovers. He had a couple of games where 674 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: he's turning the ball over. But then that is big bend. 675 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: Sometimes I think, well, he's slimmer than he's been. I 676 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: think he's more athletic than he was last year, and 677 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: I think he's playing well maybe to tend in QB index. 678 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: So I know you trust that. I do trust the QB. 679 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 1: Good good article this week one of your best of 680 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: the season.

Let's move on. Here's a stinker. Uh. 736 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 1: This week the three and six Tampa Bay Buccaneers last 737 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: place in the NFC South. They head to the meadow 738 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: Lands two and seven there in last place in NFC East, 739 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: but they're coming off a nice little comeback win. Uh. 740 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,839 Speaker 1: So here's a lollip up. Look it up, Let it up, 741 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: Greg got weird? Is a battle of qbs on the 742 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 1: hot seat? I guess Ryan Fitzpatrick's on the hot seat. 743 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 1: I don't even know at this I don't It's like 744 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 1: no one in Tampa Eli Manning isn't really either someone 745 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,280 Speaker 1: behind him. It's they have that. They have that felon 746 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: It is a moment. It is a moment, though. Jason 747 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 1: Light who seems like Felonious activity a perfectly nice guy. 748 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 1: You saw him on Hard Knocks. He's worked hard to 749 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 1: get to where he is. He has to be wondering 750 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: in his office alone during these weeks, how did I 751 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: get here with a three and seven team starring starting 752 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick at quarterback? Not the guy took number one overall, 753 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: which isn't good really on either side of the ball 754 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: at this point, and I'm just waiting for this season 755 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: to end. I mean, it's the worst of all possible 756 00:37:56,239 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: counter scenarios. Counterpoint he knows, he's saying, I can't believe 757 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 1: this is how it turned out. But there were people 758 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 1: that were saying when he made that draft pick, maybe 759 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 1: you shouldn't take this guy because he might bang you 760 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: in the end, and that is looking like what's gonna happen? Sure, 761 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: And I also think Dirk Cutter and we we've we've 762 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 1: heard him here, you know, made the situation worse. Now, 763 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: if Ryan Fitzpatrick had just kind of played out and 764 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: returned back to his level, which I think we can 765 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: agree he has over the last two weeks, then you 766 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: would have switched to Jamison. You would have just watched 767 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 1: him play and whatever at least you're seeing Jamison was 768 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: to play. Now you're stuck in this weird in between. 769 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,839 Speaker 1: It's like, why why are they even playing anymore? My 770 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 1: game notes from last week, almost every sentence starts with 771 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,840 Speaker 1: fits back in red zone, fits back in red zone, 772 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 1: back in red zone. Why isn't Alex Smith in the 773 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: red zone. Why isn't Alex Smith in the red zone? 774 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 1: Why isn't Alex Smith? I mean, this was one of 775 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: the luckiest wins for the Redskins and one of the 776 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: unluckiest for the Bucks. That said, I totally agree, it's 777 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 1: a wasted season in Tampa, and you have to wonder 778 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: what's going on there. It's directionless. They had five hundred 779 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,760 Speaker 1: yards of offense, but they had two picks, two lost fumbles, 780 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 1: missfield goals. I mean it was You're not gonna get 781 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 1: that every week no matter what happens. They although they 782 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston in four turnover games where they fall behind, right, 783 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: but it's not Ryan just Ryan Fitzpatrick. It's also Jamis 784 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 1: Winston was doing. I'm not saying it would be any better. 785 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: I just bad football amplified by bad luck. If they don't, 786 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: if they know they're ready to move on from Jamis Winston, 787 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 1: which we don't know whether that's the case, then keep 788 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: him on the bench. But if you're kind of on 789 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 1: the fence as an organization, put him back in at 790 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 1: a certain point. That's my view pointed this one. It 791 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: may not be I got the reason why he's bench 792 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 1: because Fitzpatrick probably never should have been taken out. But 793 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: if they're gonna keep losing and Fitzpatrick's gonna throw for 794 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: four yards, but the team's losing. Uh. If you want 795 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 1: to just see where's Winston ad what, they probably see 796 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 1: where he's gonna be at as you head into the 797 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 1: off season at a certain point. Fitzpatrick obviously isn't the answer. 798 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: They probably will at some point. Let's give a lollipop, 799 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:53,760 Speaker 1: by the way for hitting him out to Odell Beckham. 800 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: We never really talked about Odell Beckham anymore, Right, Well, 801 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: he gets talked about plenty having a great season, not 802 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,439 Speaker 1: on this show this year, not on the good point 803 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 1: playing like saying, it's good to just say he's back 804 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 1: from that injury and he's playing great. He's incredible and 805 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 1: he Bakewon Barkley on pace for two thousand yards, which 806 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 1: is great for a guy playing behind a terrible old 807 00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 1: line and doesn't always hit the right hole. That's true 808 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: that the Giants, I mean to me, they are the 809 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: most talented skill position to win team I've ever seen. 810 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 1: Did there the most talented skill position to win team 811 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 1: you've ever seen? They are so much more talented than 812 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 1: the record. Let's move on the Houston Texans. I love 813 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 1: this Texans team. The Jets are dead to me. You 814 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 1: really wanted to move on from that game. There was 815 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 1: a lot more to on pack between those two. Yeah, 816 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,320 Speaker 1: this is a great week. You got the Jets on by, 817 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: you got the Bills on by, you got the Dolphins 818 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: on I mean especially this, and you get the forty 819 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 1: niners out of the mix. That's nice. Uh, this is 820 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: a nice, peaceful football Sunday coming up for the old 821 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: juser and the team that he has gravitated towards. He 822 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: being me is happening in this room. Who have one 823 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 1: six in a row, and I'll forget about it. I'm 824 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 1: not even gonna try to build this up. I'm gonna 825 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,919 Speaker 1: start riding the Texans. I'm locking them up. They're going 826 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: to FedEx Field to face the first place Redskins team. 827 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 1: But I don't I don't believe in the Skins. I 828 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,240 Speaker 1: don't even if they were healthy, I don't really necessarily 829 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,919 Speaker 1: believe in the Skins. Certainly think they're vulnerable and could 830 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: be beaten in their own building, a building where nobody 831 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 1: seems to even cheer for them. That's a that's a 832 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: subplot that's going on right now for them. Um So 833 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: I'll throw it to you to get it started here, Mark, 834 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 1: But I just want to throw it out there that 835 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: the Texans, as long as they keep winning, I'm gonna 836 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: keep riding them. I think the thing that I'd say 837 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 1: is encouraging for the Redskins because we could go here 838 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: someone how massively injured a banged up they were on 839 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 1: the offensive line that it didn't turn into a total 840 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: disaster in that game. I think Alex Smith was sacked 841 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 1: twice and they were able to run the ball, and 842 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,720 Speaker 1: so you kept some you know, you kept it together 843 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: to some degree on offense. But now, like obviously the 844 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 1: situation is J J. Watt, Jadeveon Clowney and really that 845 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: to me is the matchup. But they've got to find 846 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: a way to keep a lid on what Houston can 847 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 1: do on defense against them. I don't see this as 848 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 1: a runaway scenario for the for the Texans at all. 849 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,760 Speaker 1: The day. This this is a you can look yourself 850 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: in the mirror on this loft. Yeah. I just I 851 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 1: like the Texans. They've shown that they can win close games. 852 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: They've blown out some teams. They're just in a good 853 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:22,919 Speaker 1: spot right now coming off of buy so they're gonna 854 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 1: be what I love about the But the opportunity that 855 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 1: Washington has is You've got Dallas on the road in Atlanta, 856 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 1: you have Philly, which is very close to death. If 857 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,360 Speaker 1: they cannot beat the Saints, you have a chance to 858 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 1: go up by three games in the NFC East. If 859 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 1: those two teams don't pull it off. Can you picture 860 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: the Redskins at seven and three. That's the other reason 861 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 1: I just don't see it. I hear you, but I mean, well, 862 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 1: this would be the best team Houston has beaten a 863 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 1: whole year. Mhm. They're two most impressive wins are the 864 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: Colts and Cowboys, and they didn't even play well in 865 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 1: the Cowboys game. They yeah, they've won, They've won a 866 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 1: lot of close games. They're they have great players, so 867 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: that's kind of covered up, including that the offense isn't 868 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: that great. Kareem Jackson, who is killing it at cornerback 869 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: this year and have one of the hardest hitting cornerback 870 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: games I've seen in years against the Broncos, Lamar Miller, 871 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,800 Speaker 1: I got excited. No, no, no no, no, honey, Badgers playing 872 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 1: playing well. Deandrew Hopkins is playing so well that in 873 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: that Broncos game. I mean, when they're at third and one, 874 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,360 Speaker 1: they're not thinking about Lamar Miller they're thinking the percentage 875 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 1: play is going to DeAndre Hopkins on Chris Harris, who 876 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: is one of the best cornerbacks in the league. And 877 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 1: you know what, they're right. He wins that matchup like 878 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 1: he's doing whatever they need him to do, which is 879 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 1: now kind of moved moved the chains. I have two 880 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,920 Speaker 1: predictions for you real quickly. Number One, this will be 881 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 1: the game where the lead change. This stat that's starting 882 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:43,919 Speaker 1: to become tedious is over. Well, this is the one. 883 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,320 Speaker 1: If they get through this game without a lead change, 884 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: it sets the all time record. It's not happening. In 885 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: Number two, the the injury that is going to Hunt 886 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: Washington in this game is Dustin Hopkins kicker still dealing 887 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,279 Speaker 1: with a groin injury. They're bringing in Jobra and he's 888 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: off the street as potential emote emergency scenario that that 889 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,799 Speaker 1: these these were Redskins are in these tight games all 890 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 1: the time. Please, here's something that says it all about 891 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 1: this Redskins offense with Alex Smith, who um I had 892 00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:15,760 Speaker 1: high hopes on the Skin's offense. I thought they wouldn't 893 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,400 Speaker 1: skip a beat with him because I got sucked in 894 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: by Smith's performance for most of the last year in 895 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 1: Kansas City. But here you go from next gen stats. 896 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: Alex Smith on twenty five plus yard air yard passes. 897 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 1: Last year he had twenty one completions, over completion percentage 898 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 1: a thousand yards, ten touchdowns, no picks, one s pass 899 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 1: ready this year with the Redskins, and of course they're 900 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,440 Speaker 1: the weapons are different, it's a different team and all that, 901 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 1: but this is striking four completions, completion percentage a hundred 902 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 1: and seventy one yards, one touchdown, one interception, and is 903 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: pass rading sixty two. That element of Alex Smith that 904 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,399 Speaker 1: was made him so exciting for a period last year 905 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 1: is gone, and it makes them a very boring offense. 906 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,720 Speaker 1: It's not coming back. He has to load up before 907 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:03,320 Speaker 1: he before he throws anything outside. Now they've they've been injured, 908 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 1: but they their personnel is is not great. Did the 909 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:09,400 Speaker 1: two quarterbacks here? I remember Deshaun Watson got some comparisons 910 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,239 Speaker 1: to Alex Smith in the build up to the drive, 911 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 1: and I can still kind of see that. I feel 912 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: like Deshaun Watson is a rich Man's younger Alex Smith. 913 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 1: I feel very careful quarterback. He's very good, kind of 914 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 1: bailing out after his first reads taken away and then 915 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 1: making it play anyways, which is Alex Smith wasn't the 916 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:27,959 Speaker 1: whole thing on him that he had all these would 917 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: be interceptions last year. This year, I would say he's 918 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: played very safely, not not a lot of not a 919 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,439 Speaker 1: lot of dazzle to his game this year, but he's 920 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: he's made good decisions. Quickly, Let's take a check in 921 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:44,479 Speaker 1: with the Oakland Raiders, riding a five game losing streak 922 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 1: there one and eight. They travel to the Farm to 923 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,480 Speaker 1: face the Cardinals two and seven, So this is a 924 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 1: real stinker three and fifteen combined record. West. While we're here, 925 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 1: let me just ask you your thoughts so far on 926 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 1: Josh Road. But I don't really have any. I mean, 927 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,239 Speaker 1: he's he's been blah. The Cardinals offense is terrible. Their 928 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,959 Speaker 1: offensive line is one of the worst in the league. 929 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: They don't have a running game. It's almost impossible to 930 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 1: even grade Josh Rosen this year in complete. Say yes, 931 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 1: I would say incomplete that he's made enough throw impressive 932 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 1: throws that that just kind of keeps you going, that 933 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 1: you're excited to see some really nice throws with accuracy 934 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 1: and timing that are not easy throws. So he's he's 935 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 1: mixed in a few of those per week, and other 936 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: than that, I would agree with it. I would say 937 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 1: that he is like Trabinsky last year in golf the 938 00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 1: year before. You can't evaluate him because you need a 939 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,719 Speaker 1: new coach or someone to come in and rewire the 940 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: whole thing. Get an offensive line, get a running game, 941 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 1: get receivers. He hasn't. He has no support, So this 942 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,480 Speaker 1: would be a good week for him to make some noise. 943 00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 1: It's also a good week for Chandler Jones to challenge 944 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 1: the single game sack record against Colton Miller, who can't 945 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 1: block anyone, and Chandler Jones do droid Eric Fisher last week. 946 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:05,120 Speaker 1: Tayler Jones is would be the first. Maybe he has 947 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,399 Speaker 1: a first team All Pro Anyways, he's playing at that 948 00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,759 Speaker 1: There's a lot of guys who are up there. One 949 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:13,680 Speaker 1: of the only people that's really gotten into the nest 950 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 1: of Patrick Mahomes like all season long. Oh he was, yeah, 951 00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: the first quarter. He was in Mahome's grill the whole time. 952 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:21,680 Speaker 1: Probably more about this nest. I don't know. The minute 953 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:23,359 Speaker 1: I said that, I thought, what am I talking to him? 954 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: You know what? We we are? We the amount of 955 00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 1: talking over the course of a week in this regular season. 956 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: I am so tired of hearing myself say anything at all. 957 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 1: The Denver Broncos are three and the touch Mark don't know. 958 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 1: I do because I had no idea what it means. 959 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,919 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean anything like if you would have said 960 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:48,840 Speaker 1: Rosen in the nest, because then you have the Cardinals 961 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 1: and you can fly with that a little bit. I 962 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:54,239 Speaker 1: try to stay away from like the overt bird at 963 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 1: or like animal analogy, or jets flying into Miami. But 964 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 1: there's a lot of like, Okay, this week, Raider's head 965 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: to the desert. It's always the desert annoys me. That 966 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 1: is very stupid. Why do you hate the desert? Well, 967 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 1: it's just like the cardinals always you just here. It's 968 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:13,239 Speaker 1: Arizona over It acts like there's no civilization there. There 969 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,360 Speaker 1: are houses. Have you ever lived I lived in Phoenix 970 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,759 Speaker 1: for a year. It was an awful place. And it's 971 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 1: not a desert. It's it is technically that's the land. 972 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,359 Speaker 1: That's the type of geographical land it is. But it's 973 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: just houses and apartment buildings and strip malls. I'm gonna 974 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 1: start calling it the road Runner Haven. The six seasons 975 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:33,239 Speaker 1: say that, and so you're still uncovering new ground. You 976 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 1: just gotta keep talking and you'll find no. I am 977 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: we are almost done. Listeners in the Phoenix, Arizona area, 978 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 1: we apologize three and six. The Denver Broncos another team 979 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:48,760 Speaker 1: in a free fall. Seems like a lot of teams 980 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 1: are just losing on a weekly basis right now in 981 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 1: the NFL. The Broncos are one. If they have any chance, 982 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to win out or come close to it. Uh. 983 00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 1: First test is a tough one. The l A Chargers, 984 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 1: a team that's gone in the opposite direction here Greg, 985 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 1: they've won sixth straight and you can put it in 986 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 1: the book. Another rainmaker, Greg, No, if anything, sure why 987 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 1: it was supposed to just be one a week. If anything, 988 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put it on the the the old Broncos 989 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 1: to keep this game close. Wake up, Tam Posey. So 990 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:27,840 Speaker 1: it's a rainmaker. Interesting for the for the Broncos to 991 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: The Chargers are being viewed, and they are. It's a 992 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 1: problematic thing. I think coming back home, they haven't played 993 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 1: and stuff up for a while. I feel like they're 994 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 1: like I think so, I think they're better on the 995 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,680 Speaker 1: I they're better on the road because the Broncos are 996 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 1: gonna come. The Broncos fans are gonna fill up that stadium. 997 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 1: It's gonna be depressing and it's going to be annoying. 998 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 1: And then I think the Broncos. I wouldn't say they're misunderstood, 999 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:57,920 Speaker 1: but they've been a little unlucky. I don't think they're 1000 00:49:57,920 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 1: as bad as the record, and I definitely don't think 1001 00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:03,399 Speaker 1: CA no one understands me Broncos. I don't think case 1002 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:06,280 Speaker 1: Keendom has played nearly as bad as kind of the 1003 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 1: the national view over the last month, he has looked 1004 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 1: exactly like you would have accepted expected case Keendom to 1005 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 1: be over last one. They're a fine team. Their defense 1006 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,959 Speaker 1: is fine. They played the Chiefs tough a couple of times. 1007 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,359 Speaker 1: What about their coaches? Suaches are bad and that's how 1008 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 1: they lose these super close games. But there's not a 1009 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 1: lot separating a team like the Texans and the Broncos. 1010 00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 1: This is a test for the Chargers. Dec remember last 1011 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,840 Speaker 1: number nine in football outsiders, You know, I get it, 1012 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 1: but I'm just saying they're not a terrible three and 1013 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 1: six team. There's some terrible ones out there. Remember last 1014 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:37,920 Speaker 1: year when the Chargers turned their season around and reeled 1015 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,399 Speaker 1: off like seven straight wins from this point on their 1016 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 1: thirtee over there, it was when Denzel Peram and came 1017 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 1: back and fixed their run defense, and he just got 1018 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: hurt out for the year. The Charges are one of 1019 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 1: the best running teams in the NFL. That's a matchup 1020 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: to watch, uh playing, Well, there's another guy. These guys here. No, 1021 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 1: I know exactly what you're saying. I get it, but 1022 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:02,439 Speaker 1: it's a teams that never find a way to win. 1023 00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 1: They're just bad team. So I could see that happening. 1024 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: Close loss for the bron We should mention that Joey 1025 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:09,839 Speaker 1: Bose is practicing again and there's talk that he might 1026 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 1: make his debut this week. You know what, they should 1027 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:15,239 Speaker 1: be careful with him. I agree. You have two more 1028 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 1: cupcakes here before you get to the big one week 1029 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 1: thirteen at Pittsburgh's say, and you hold him up to them, Man, 1030 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:23,319 Speaker 1: we don't. We also have no idea what's happening. I mean, 1031 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:27,160 Speaker 1: Greg's telling us is not a cupcake. The Broncos are 1032 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,560 Speaker 1: not a cupcake. I don't think it's a cupcake. I 1033 00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 1: don't think they're I don't think they're like playing the Raiders. 1034 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 1: You know, it's fun. I don't either in the and 1035 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:36,240 Speaker 1: the but the Charger's offense has been a little sporadic. 1036 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: I would say over the last three or four week 1037 00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:40,120 Speaker 1: I think the defense has played much better. They haven't 1038 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,680 Speaker 1: played great competition. But if one thing though, like the 1039 00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 1: idea that you're coming home to your home stadium, and 1040 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 1: that's a disadvantage where you were a couple of years 1041 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 1: away from being put in a state of the yard, 1042 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:54,880 Speaker 1: much bigger stadium, and what are you gonna visiting fans 1043 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: at that point. It's a total disaster. Don't field advantage. 1044 00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 1: That's true, But that's it's not all about the out 1045 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 1: in the stadium. It's about the being a creature or 1046 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 1: covered creatures or whatever you call it, where you you 1047 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: get to sleep in your own bed and you're practicing 1048 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,800 Speaker 1: your facility. You're not going on an airplane and staying 1049 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,360 Speaker 1: at a hotel. They have all those other things that 1050 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:15,320 Speaker 1: are a positive. It's just the actual gaming. It's a problem. 1051 00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 1: It's such a problem. Look at the ratings in Los Angeles. 1052 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,879 Speaker 1: The Chargers do not rate like a local team would rate. 1053 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,239 Speaker 1: It's pretty different between them and the Rams. And then 1054 00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 1: even more telling to me is you look in San 1055 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 1: Diego where the Chargers still outrage everything else and it's 1056 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:32,440 Speaker 1: not at the levels they were when they were in 1057 00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 1: San Diego, but they have this huge fan base in 1058 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 1: San Diego still that's making them the number one game 1059 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,799 Speaker 1: every week. Even if it's a some lousy charge them back, 1060 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: it's a bad idea. Send them back, all right, come 1061 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,400 Speaker 1: to London. Three more games. Don't you think San Diego 1062 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,360 Speaker 1: deserves him? And we love our fans in London. Figure 1063 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: out the stadium situation. Because we saw a YouTube concert 1064 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:55,600 Speaker 1: at the old stadium, Absolute mass. I was under the 1065 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:57,759 Speaker 1: impression that bridge was broken. But I'd be in favor 1066 00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 1: of sending them back to San Diego. But yeah, does 1067 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 1: deserve a team as well. That would be fun. All right, 1068 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 1: three more games, good ones. Here we go Philadelphia Eagles. 1069 00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:11,200 Speaker 1: They need to win. They need to win in the 1070 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,400 Speaker 1: worst way. What a loss. And sometimes you look at 1071 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: the schedule and it's in a vacuum and you just say, oh, 1072 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 1: bad loss to the Cowboys at home. But then you 1073 00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:21,319 Speaker 1: don't realize the way they make these schedules, Greg is 1074 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 1: that they here's a home game that you should win, 1075 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 1: and we will not take pity on you because the 1076 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 1: next week we're gonna send you to a potential slaughter. Well, 1077 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,800 Speaker 1: now you've gotta go to the freaking super Dome, Eagles. 1078 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 1: You want to go back to the playoffs, you want 1079 00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 1: to go back to the super Bowl. You gotta find 1080 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: out a way to beat the Saints, who are playing 1081 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: as well as anyone in football. That's what you think 1082 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 1: the schedule makers were thinking as they were drawing it up. 1083 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:46,400 Speaker 1: That's how they do it. Look at these schedules they 1084 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 1: get sometimes will give teams or it doesn't always work 1085 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: out this way, they'll say, we're gonna give you the 1086 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 1: Falcons are a perfect example. Falcons. We're gonna give you 1087 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,960 Speaker 1: the Browns. Make sure you win this game, because we 1088 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 1: won't feel pity on you. The next week. We gonna 1089 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 1: make you have to a game that you could lose. 1090 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,080 Speaker 1: That's how seasons go awry when you don't win the 1091 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,640 Speaker 1: games you're supposed to. What's gonna get tougher because with 1092 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:11,359 Speaker 1: I think Ronald Darby was losing Ronald Darby feels like 1093 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 1: the moment, you know, for the season, which we haven't 1094 00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:17,000 Speaker 1: really talked about here. It feels like the moment where 1095 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:20,480 Speaker 1: you're starting to lose hope that the defense can can 1096 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 1: survive because he was playing great and they're awfully thin 1097 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,799 Speaker 1: in the secondary, especially trying to face the Saints. Is 1098 00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 1: I would say the other person that they miss dearly 1099 00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 1: is Frank Reich. There is something about this offense that 1100 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:36,279 Speaker 1: reminds me more of the Eagles from two years ago 1101 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 1: than last year. Don't tell Doc Peterson that he seems 1102 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:41,640 Speaker 1: like he's getting a little he doesn't like he doesn't 1103 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 1: like this narrative. I mean they I think it's tough 1104 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:45,800 Speaker 1: when you when you have at trition and the coaching 1105 00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 1: staff over and over called Peterson called the plays. Last year, 1106 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:52,360 Speaker 1: he called the plays. Reich made the game plans. And 1107 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:54,120 Speaker 1: I think I think that the super Bowl. One of 1108 00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 1: the huge themes from being at Super Bowl Week was 1109 00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:00,360 Speaker 1: the praise heaped on Frank Ripe from all d actions 1110 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,360 Speaker 1: over and over. And you see it with the cults. 1111 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:03,799 Speaker 1: I mean we're seeing it week to week with the 1112 00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 1: cults now that they, you know, got their act together. 1113 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 1: I look at this Eagles team and I just feel 1114 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 1: like that there are a couple of days away from 1115 00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,759 Speaker 1: being deep six for good you're not still. I don't 1116 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:15,279 Speaker 1: think you're gonna walk in and beat the Saints. This 1117 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,240 Speaker 1: is a lopsided matchup. The Eagles have the toughest remaining 1118 00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:21,759 Speaker 1: schedule starting with this one, their secondaries falling apart. Teams 1119 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,600 Speaker 1: are picking on result. Douglas, they're leading Russia, has two 1120 00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:26,800 Speaker 1: d and sixty one yards. The Saints have the number 1121 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 1: one run defense in the NFL, which I think with 1122 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 1: shocks some people. It's not just their offense that's on 1123 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 1: pace to have more points than any but the two 1124 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:38,880 Speaker 1: thousand seven Patriots and two thousand thirteen Broncos. This is 1125 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:41,719 Speaker 1: the best team in the NFL. Doesn't and doesn't feel 1126 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 1: on the other side, doesn't it feel like the Eagles 1127 00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:45,920 Speaker 1: have just been kind of like farting around this year. 1128 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,240 Speaker 1: They're both starting around. They've never been able to sustain 1129 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: any momentum the scientific that's exactly what they've been like, 1130 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:55,279 Speaker 1: getting injured players back, and then when they do more 1131 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:57,960 Speaker 1: injuries almost feels like they're like, we'll be all right, 1132 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna turn it on, we're gonna turn it and 1133 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:01,600 Speaker 1: things are okay, and now all of a sudden you 1134 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 1: look up there four and five and they got to 1135 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:05,319 Speaker 1: go to the super dumb and I don't like their 1136 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,960 Speaker 1: chances either. No, I mean this, This Saints team is 1137 00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:10,839 Speaker 1: so fun to watch. I mean, Michael Thomas is so 1138 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:12,840 Speaker 1: fun to watch. His catch percentage is one of the 1139 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,839 Speaker 1: most amazing set because he's is one of the most 1140 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 1: amazing stats in sports. Chimera to me is if I 1141 00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 1: could choose one running back, I would take him. And 1142 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:23,560 Speaker 1: you don't even need him all the time. Taysom Hill 1143 00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:26,000 Speaker 1: is important. And then last week they're breaking out guys 1144 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:31,440 Speaker 1: Dan Keith, Kirkwood and Dan Arnold. They took Dan Arnold 1145 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: out of the Wonder Years and and they're catching pass like, 1146 00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,800 Speaker 1: who are they heard of these guys and they're making plays. 1147 00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 1: I don't like the correlated the name of the dad's 1148 00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:42,840 Speaker 1: his real name with his last name on the show 1149 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: Dan Gloria and uh Son was Kirkwood Arnold. Send them 1150 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:51,720 Speaker 1: back to the fifth. Losing Tarrant Armstead is an issue, 1151 00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:56,279 Speaker 1: not story about the sixties. Yeah, against this defensive line, 1152 00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:58,440 Speaker 1: that's an issue. But I mean, what's going to stop 1153 00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:02,000 Speaker 1: them from scoring thirty or forty? This nothing? They held 1154 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:05,719 Speaker 1: the Bengals to twenty minutes of possession last week and 1155 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,880 Speaker 1: that game was over ten minutes I was covering. I 1156 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:11,600 Speaker 1: stopped watching it at halftime. They're they're the one team. 1157 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:13,960 Speaker 1: A lot of defenses and the Cults are like this, 1158 00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 1: A lot of defenses that aren't that good are just 1159 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,480 Speaker 1: kind of like, Okay, beat us with a fifteen play drive. 1160 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 1: We figure you'll make a mistake at some point. And 1161 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 1: but then the Saints, when teams do that to them, 1162 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 1: they just do fifteen play drives. I have to apologize 1163 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 1: to Chiefs fans because right now, in my mind, there 1164 00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 1: is no m VP discussion. It's Drew Brees. Wow. I 1165 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,600 Speaker 1: think he separated himself over the last three or four games. 1166 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:36,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a disc I think they're close. I 1167 00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:38,920 Speaker 1: take Breese to you know, twenty two of last week 1168 00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 1: where we always say they can't play on the road 1169 00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:43,840 Speaker 1: on Awesome though, So I'm gonna give the edge to 1170 00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:49,120 Speaker 1: these guys. Get six more weeks right, the race could 1171 00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:53,920 Speaker 1: be a discussion can resurface. It's it's highly narrative driven, 1172 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 1: and this may be the last time you can give 1173 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 1: this award to Drew Brees, and you've got another fifteen 1174 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 1: years to give it to Patrick Mahomes. The Saints are 1175 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:04,040 Speaker 1: getting better, like progressively better every week of the season. 1176 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:08,040 Speaker 1: Southern Rankins is beast in people on their defensive. Now 1177 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 1: a word from our sponsor. You may or may not 1178 00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:19,760 Speaker 1: have heard at May, but Low's is the new home 1179 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,560 Speaker 1: of craftsmen. See Dan, Sometimes you just gotta throw in 1180 00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 1: the even though it's not on the copy. I think 1181 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 1: they should fix the copy of at a certain point 1182 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:31,439 Speaker 1: fix the day, which means that at Lows you'll find 1183 00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 1: an ever growing selection of mechanics, tools, tools, storage and 1184 00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 1: more in store and online, ready to help tackle projects 1185 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,800 Speaker 1: throughout your home. If one of those projects happens to 1186 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:44,240 Speaker 1: be in a really tight space to get to, then 1187 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 1: you definitely need to check out the wretchet. It has 1188 00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 1: a three degree arc swing. You guys, do you know 1189 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 1: what that does? I mean, I'm asked this question three 1190 00:58:56,720 --> 00:59:00,439 Speaker 1: to four times a week starting to know we in neither, 1191 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:04,840 Speaker 1: but we do now. Wes's reads are so folksy. A 1192 00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 1: three degree arcs if you can loosen for tighten bolts 1193 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,080 Speaker 1: with less movement and those hard to reach spots, they 1194 00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 1: should dig up and reanimate the Bartles and James guys 1195 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:19,560 Speaker 1: and I could be the third that that should make 1196 00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:21,600 Speaker 1: it easy to tackle any auto or d I Y 1197 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 1: project on your list. Plus they come in a gun 1198 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:29,240 Speaker 1: metal chrome finish that's sex. That's not only sharp looking, 1199 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:33,720 Speaker 1: it makes them corrosion resistant. What guy doesn't want gun 1200 00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 1: metal chrome? Come on, some beta cuck snowflake shot the 1201 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 1: new home of Craftsman today at lows dot com. Slash around. 1202 00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:49,440 Speaker 1: That's Lows l O W e s dot com slash around. 1203 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,440 Speaker 1: That feels ripe for another sponsor to send us what 1204 00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 1: we've been talking about for months and months. Why would 1205 00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:55,960 Speaker 1: it would it hurt you to send out four of 1206 00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 1: those ratchet scenario three degree ar to Greg. Get us 1207 00:59:59,880 --> 01:00:03,120 Speaker 1: to box cooking. It's out of a toolbox too. It's 1208 01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:07,120 Speaker 1: a battle for first place in the NFC North. Oh yeah, 1209 01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 1: the Vikings five three and one. They've quietly won four 1210 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 1: of their last five. They got everything in order. And 1211 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:16,680 Speaker 1: here's a test, because you're the Bears, a team that's 1212 01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 1: really in addition to being a team of the around 1213 01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 1: the NFL West have not been tested often. Here's a 1214 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,200 Speaker 1: big one. You beat the Vikings at home. People are 1215 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:28,640 Speaker 1: buying in, including this room. I think that's fair. This 1216 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:30,960 Speaker 1: would be the best team the Bears have beaten all year. 1217 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:33,360 Speaker 1: And I know that we chose well for Team of 1218 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 1: a t L because I want to look at these 1219 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,919 Speaker 1: these two teams. They're so evenly matched. The Vikings last 1220 01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:41,320 Speaker 1: four opponents have been held under three hundred yards by 1221 01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:43,920 Speaker 1: their defense, and there's still no defense in the NFL 1222 01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 1: I trust more than the Bears. With a healthy Khalil Mack, 1223 01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 1: Kyle Fuller is playing even better than last year. Bryce 1224 01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:51,400 Speaker 1: Callahan is a Pro Bowl slot receiver. This year, ro 1225 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:54,160 Speaker 1: Kuwan Smith is coming on. We take a team Hicks 1226 01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 1: for granted, This is to me that final score in 1227 01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:00,240 Speaker 1: the Lions game last week was not reflective of the 1228 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:03,200 Speaker 1: beating this defense put on the lines Um. And then 1229 01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:05,320 Speaker 1: on the other hand, the Vikings have Davin Cook and 1230 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:08,640 Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs finally healthy, but I think the Bears can 1231 01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 1: pick on that offensive line had a clear Mac look 1232 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:14,280 Speaker 1: last week. He had two sacks um. There was a 1233 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:17,439 Speaker 1: viral video of him bull rushing Taylor Decker that got 1234 01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:20,200 Speaker 1: sent around, but I think it was a little unfair 1235 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:21,600 Speaker 1: to Decker. It looked like his he kind of had 1236 01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 1: his footstepped on by an offensive lineman, which made it 1237 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:26,200 Speaker 1: easier for the bull rush to happen. But Mac was 1238 01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:28,480 Speaker 1: Mac was pretty act moving well, and we're starting to 1239 01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:31,360 Speaker 1: see week by week what Mitch Trabisky can be in 1240 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 1: this offense as well. I thought he had one of 1241 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:36,920 Speaker 1: his best games, and this is the game I've waited 1242 01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:39,160 Speaker 1: for I have not. I probably if there's criticism about 1243 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 1: the team of a t L not latching on in 1244 01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:43,400 Speaker 1: this room the way that people would want, I definitely 1245 01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 1: am at fault for that. If there's fault to be blamed, 1246 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 1: because I've not really bought in because they've not really 1247 01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 1: had that signature win. They're gonna get it this week. 1248 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 1: I know it because I'm locking it up. Yes, I 1249 01:01:54,440 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 1: like that because I you say it, it isn't even matchup, 1250 01:01:57,440 --> 01:02:00,760 Speaker 1: and I've been waiting for this matchup. If you just 1251 01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:02,920 Speaker 1: kind of look at the numbers, it's not that even 1252 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:07,520 Speaker 1: the Bears have been a better offense than the Vikings period. 1253 01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:11,000 Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's no question that the Bears have 1254 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 1: a better offense. They don't have a better quarterback necessarily, 1255 01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,160 Speaker 1: but they have a better offense. Oh, I don't try. 1256 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:19,439 Speaker 1: I saw you finally given Trabinsky some love in your quarterback. Yeah, 1257 01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:21,640 Speaker 1: and I don't And with Rabinsky and that I'm really 1258 01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:23,320 Speaker 1: looking forward to this game too, because I don't think 1259 01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:25,600 Speaker 1: we need to do a week by week appraisal. Like 1260 01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 1: he is growing slowly, he's playing in a great offense. 1261 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 1: That was my only point all year. Let the guy 1262 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:34,480 Speaker 1: grow under a good quarterback, and he's he's making some 1263 01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:36,040 Speaker 1: some plays on his own. But this is a great 1264 01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:38,240 Speaker 1: and a tough matchup for him. But I was gonna say, 1265 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:40,400 Speaker 1: their offense definitely better and their defense is probably better 1266 01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:43,080 Speaker 1: too than there aren't you kind of hurting your own 1267 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:45,920 Speaker 1: writing career here by saying we don't need to do 1268 01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 1: week by week appraisals. I tried. That's why I would 1269 01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,680 Speaker 1: no longer rank it every every week one to thirty two. 1270 01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:54,640 Speaker 1: I try to do it every four weeks at the 1271 01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:57,120 Speaker 1: very least. But they don't like that, And I know 1272 01:02:57,280 --> 01:02:59,240 Speaker 1: some of the check back in four weeks for Greg's 1273 01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,160 Speaker 1: column are ordered a little bit because they've had a 1274 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:03,360 Speaker 1: couple of really lopside of games of clothing that what 1275 01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 1: is a six touchdown game for Drabinsky, but the friendly 1276 01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:08,280 Speaker 1: system for a lot of it's a lot of screen 1277 01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 1: passes that go sixty yards and other places like that 1278 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:12,919 Speaker 1: that the quarterback. Yeah, at the end of the day 1279 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 1: coming out of last season, which an incomplete grade you 1280 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:18,520 Speaker 1: could give him last year. Uh, there was a lot 1281 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:20,920 Speaker 1: of questions in August, is this guy gonna be able 1282 01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:22,680 Speaker 1: to help this team go to the next level? And 1283 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:24,840 Speaker 1: it might be a quarterback friendly system, but this guy 1284 01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,280 Speaker 1: is on pace to like set all these Bears records, 1285 01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:31,160 Speaker 1: the the maturity and growth of Mitch Drabinsky, you cannot 1286 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 1: be going any better. Maybe it's not going at the 1287 01:03:32,920 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 1: level Jared Goff last year, which is what a lot 1288 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,640 Speaker 1: of the comparisons, but maybe it's not that far off either. 1289 01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 1: And he's bringing as much value as a runner as 1290 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:43,440 Speaker 1: Cam Newton does, and he he is the most valuable 1291 01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:46,120 Speaker 1: runner in the league. So that's what I wrote about partly. 1292 01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,440 Speaker 1: I now out of quarterback. Out of quarterbacks, it's not 1293 01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:52,280 Speaker 1: even close according to QBR or P. And when you 1294 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:53,960 Speaker 1: watch him, it makes sense. He plays a lot to 1295 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:56,480 Speaker 1: me like like Russell Wilson did as a as a 1296 01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 1: young player. Yeah, maybe doesn't quite have the deep ball 1297 01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:02,680 Speaker 1: like accuracy yet, but otherwise he plays a lot like 1298 01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean Russell Wilson. And now he's got Allen Robinson 1299 01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 1: looking like Allan Robinson last week, which I thought was 1300 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 1: the first time huge develop It was about time for 1301 01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:12,680 Speaker 1: someone to come along and set Bears records at quarterbacks 1302 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,840 Speaker 1: because they've had literally nothing at that position outside of 1303 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:23,640 Speaker 1: their er Eric Cramer records. Look, this is the some 1304 01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 1: of their quarterback records. In fact, most of them are 1305 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:28,200 Speaker 1: held by a guy who played the prime of his 1306 01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 1: career in the nineteen thirties and forties, said Luckman. That 1307 01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:34,200 Speaker 1: is embarrassing for an organization. This is this is when 1308 01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm so excited. This game is kind of annoying. I'm 1309 01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 1: getting increasingly annoyed that when these Sunday night football bangers 1310 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:44,720 Speaker 1: are happening something we're doing the pod and stuff. Because 1311 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:46,560 Speaker 1: this one, these are two teams I feel like I 1312 01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:50,040 Speaker 1: still I don't know about I mean, it's after it. 1313 01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 1: While we're talking, their season is starting around Thanksgiving. As 1314 01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:55,800 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, let's find out about the dog thanks 1315 01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:58,040 Speaker 1: Givings when you really got to stop paying attention in 1316 01:04:58,040 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 1: the National Football League where they night you know what 1317 01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:03,600 Speaker 1: next next season, we'll test that and we'll check in 1318 01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 1: as a group around December one. Uh. Finally, it is 1319 01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:13,800 Speaker 1: the game of the year. It is Monday night football. 1320 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:17,080 Speaker 1: It is the nine and one Kansas City Chiefs, a 1321 01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:19,040 Speaker 1: lot of people view them as a favorite to go 1322 01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:21,800 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl against the nine and one Los 1323 01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:23,880 Speaker 1: Angeles Rams. Viewed by a lot of people as a 1324 01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:27,120 Speaker 1: favorite to go to the super Bowl. It's a potential preview, 1325 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:30,760 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler of the super Bowl. It's a game being 1326 01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:36,640 Speaker 1: played where Los Angeles, Mark Sessler, not Mexico City. And 1327 01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:38,560 Speaker 1: we'll get to that in a minute. But before we do, 1328 01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 1: let's talk about this football game. Oh my goodness, we're 1329 01:05:42,040 --> 01:05:45,360 Speaker 1: gonna have some fun on Monday night. I feel like 1330 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:48,160 Speaker 1: everyone talks about the offenses over and over and over, 1331 01:05:48,720 --> 01:05:50,600 Speaker 1: and I'm trying to look at these defense and say 1332 01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:53,720 Speaker 1: who could come in and make an impact and prevent 1333 01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:56,640 Speaker 1: it from being just forty five to forty four, like 1334 01:05:56,680 --> 01:05:59,520 Speaker 1: everyone assumes it is one guy for the Chiefs. I 1335 01:05:59,560 --> 01:06:02,680 Speaker 1: think Dee Ford has been playing really really well for them, 1336 01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:05,520 Speaker 1: and they have justin Houston back. This game feels to 1337 01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 1: me like you gotta get one of these teams to 1338 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 1: commit a killer turnover late third quarter, early fourth up, 1339 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:14,600 Speaker 1: disrupt the flow of like seven straight touchdown drives by 1340 01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:16,840 Speaker 1: both teams, and that's the key. I mean, I think 1341 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna get one turnover that everyone's gonna be talking 1342 01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 1: about the next the next morning. Marcus Peters revenge game, 1343 01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:25,480 Speaker 1: not pointing to that necessarily, although that I would like 1344 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 1: to see him. What did he what did he do 1345 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 1: against the Jett was there was some let's do that 1346 01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:32,040 Speaker 1: a flag into the stadium, then came out of the 1347 01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:34,480 Speaker 1: locker room without his shoes on one of my favorite 1348 01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:36,920 Speaker 1: subplots tending up in like kicked out of the game, 1349 01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 1: he was active at that point. That looked like such 1350 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:41,240 Speaker 1: a home run trade for the Rams and has not 1351 01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:45,040 Speaker 1: worked out yet. And we'll see how the the Chiefs 1352 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:47,280 Speaker 1: try to attack a guy that they know pretty well. 1353 01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:50,080 Speaker 1: I think the Chiefs defense is getting better, and you 1354 01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 1: know d Ford is not gonna have Andre Smith to 1355 01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:55,919 Speaker 1: tee off on like he did last week in which 1356 01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:59,760 Speaker 1: was one of the most impressive mismatches I've ever seen 1357 01:06:59,840 --> 01:07:04,360 Speaker 1: in my life watching football. Snap after snap, Defour didn't 1358 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,960 Speaker 1: even have to use moves. He just speed rushed him 1359 01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:09,640 Speaker 1: every single time and got to the quarterback. That won't 1360 01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:12,400 Speaker 1: happen against the Rams tackles. But he's having a great year. 1361 01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 1: He's sort of like the DeMarcus Lawrence of this season. 1362 01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:17,320 Speaker 1: Justin Houston, like you said, Chris Jones is having a 1363 01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 1: great They actually have a better front right now in 1364 01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:24,720 Speaker 1: terms of just the talent, in terms of top shelf 1365 01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:27,400 Speaker 1: guys playing at the height of their powers. Chris Jones 1366 01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:29,320 Speaker 1: so far has been a top ten player at his 1367 01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 1: position more than Aaron Donald. Ford absolutely has in Justin 1368 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:35,200 Speaker 1: Houston played really well last week. Yeah, because I think 1369 01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:37,720 Speaker 1: they have three guys playing at that higher level. I 1370 01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:39,760 Speaker 1: think Donald is the defensive player of the year for 1371 01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:42,800 Speaker 1: me right now. But Sue and Brockers have been solid. 1372 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:46,440 Speaker 1: I don't think they've been game changers. Chief secondary has 1373 01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:49,080 Speaker 1: improved to Stephen Nelson is playing much better than he 1374 01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:50,560 Speaker 1: was there in the year. They got sore Inson back 1375 01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 1: from injury. My fear, and it kind of plays into 1376 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 1: what you said a little bit there. Just now, Greg, 1377 01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:57,960 Speaker 1: is the last time the Rams in a big spot, 1378 01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:00,520 Speaker 1: that defense, which got pumped up in World it as 1379 01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 1: a difference making defense when they went against the Saints, 1380 01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:07,400 Speaker 1: they got embarrassed, they got dunked on by the Saints, 1381 01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 1: and there are some differences. This game is going to 1382 01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:11,960 Speaker 1: be in their building, and obviously it's the Chiefs not 1383 01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:14,880 Speaker 1: the Saints this time. But you're wondering does this Ram 1384 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:16,920 Speaker 1: defense have it in him to really put up a 1385 01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:18,960 Speaker 1: fight when you get to at this level of offense. 1386 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:21,960 Speaker 1: Does any team does any defense in football? Maybe that's 1387 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:24,960 Speaker 1: the greater question, but is this Rams defense capable of 1388 01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:27,400 Speaker 1: making big stops when he counts against a truly elite 1389 01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 1: offense and don't hurt yourself? Let five personal fouls last 1390 01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:32,840 Speaker 1: week that you can't do that in this game. John 1391 01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:35,080 Speaker 1: McVeigh was about as upset about that as he's been 1392 01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,479 Speaker 1: upset about anything since he's been a coach. And they 1393 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:39,120 Speaker 1: don't have a keep to lead back, which I really 1394 01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:43,160 Speaker 1: do think will make a pretty big difference for that defense. 1395 01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 1: But I totally expect Patrick Mahomes to light them up. 1396 01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:48,839 Speaker 1: I mean Patrick Mahomes. Last week I thought was an 1397 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,519 Speaker 1: interesting test from because he really got hit a lot, 1398 01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:53,839 Speaker 1: and there there was a great article on the Athletic 1399 01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:56,720 Speaker 1: that that pointed out kind of what he did on 1400 01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:58,840 Speaker 1: some place where if you're watching the broadcast feed, it 1401 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 1: looks like guys are pretty wide open, but Mahomes is 1402 01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:04,920 Speaker 1: pretty next level with the way that he sort of 1403 01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:07,879 Speaker 1: points his body in one direction and then passes another 1404 01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:10,679 Speaker 1: and that's what gets them open or he's really good 1405 01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:13,800 Speaker 1: for a second year quarterback the first year starter of 1406 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:16,720 Speaker 1: using his eyes. And there was a great play down 1407 01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:19,719 Speaker 1: the sideline where he pumped faked, you know, a cornerback away. 1408 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:21,840 Speaker 1: So he's doing a lot of next level things. It's 1409 01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:24,800 Speaker 1: not just that their scheming plays open for him. He's 1410 01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:28,080 Speaker 1: incredibly I guess, I guess has a good feel for 1411 01:09:28,120 --> 01:09:30,480 Speaker 1: the game, kind of like an Andrew luck could anticipation 1412 01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:33,240 Speaker 1: to which not all young quarterbacks have. One other thing 1413 01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:35,439 Speaker 1: that I'll be tracking this game because I love the 1414 01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:37,960 Speaker 1: m v P race and I love the history of 1415 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:40,840 Speaker 1: all that. Uh right now, the way it is, it 1416 01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:43,760 Speaker 1: seems mahomes freeze you. You put them where you want 1417 01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:46,519 Speaker 1: to put him, and then Girly maybe a distant third. 1418 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:50,800 Speaker 1: I put golf third. I okay, but you, Girly. This 1419 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:52,920 Speaker 1: is the stage if Gurley has any chance of that, 1420 01:09:53,080 --> 01:09:54,680 Speaker 1: if he puts his team on his back and as 1421 01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 1: a monster game, with everybody that watches football watching this game, 1422 01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:00,360 Speaker 1: the ratings are gonna be huge. He would enter the 1423 01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:02,800 Speaker 1: m v P race in earnest Right now as it stands. 1424 01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:04,880 Speaker 1: Right now, I think he's lucky to win the bronze, 1425 01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:06,519 Speaker 1: and that's probably it's going to turn out just be 1426 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:08,439 Speaker 1: offensive Player of the Year again, right, But if he 1427 01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:10,960 Speaker 1: has a monster game here, that could put him into 1428 01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:14,280 Speaker 1: the race legitimately and maybe golf too. I'm not totally 1429 01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:16,840 Speaker 1: we still have seven games left. I think he's I 1430 01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:19,439 Speaker 1: don't think he's underrated, but I think he's making a 1431 01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:25,080 Speaker 1: lot of really special throws on a weekly bass right now, 1432 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:27,639 Speaker 1: he had I would put him third. I'm just saying 1433 01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:30,840 Speaker 1: if if they had a dominant performance where he had 1434 01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:33,920 Speaker 1: another night like he did against Minnesota. I mean some 1435 01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:37,920 Speaker 1: of some of these throws, thinking of one against the 1436 01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:40,519 Speaker 1: Packers where you know they're getting pressure on him quickly 1437 01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:43,600 Speaker 1: and he's making plays on his own. He's showing anticipation 1438 01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:45,720 Speaker 1: like he he is impressive. Well, I think for for 1439 01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 1: golf to be considered in the m v P, because 1440 01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:51,080 Speaker 1: it comes down to this stuff, he's gonna have to 1441 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:53,880 Speaker 1: beat the Chiefs like if they if they ever if 1442 01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:55,960 Speaker 1: they were nipped by Kansas City. Golf is out of 1443 01:10:56,000 --> 01:10:59,240 Speaker 1: that matching out's narrative base, and that's part of it. 1444 01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:02,240 Speaker 1: Like this, this has got such a high profile game 1445 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:04,800 Speaker 1: of these three heavy p canddates and someone goes nuts 1446 01:11:04,840 --> 01:11:07,200 Speaker 1: of these three guys that's gonna go a long way 1447 01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:10,160 Speaker 1: with that. You can't in Kansas City and lose to 1448 01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:13,479 Speaker 1: New Orleans. Yeah, I think it's gonna be Breezer Mahomes. 1449 01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:15,519 Speaker 1: But there's and they. I think there's something about the 1450 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:18,880 Speaker 1: Rams that it kind of frustrates Mark at times, and 1451 01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:21,320 Speaker 1: it almost is like there, it almost looks too easy 1452 01:11:21,360 --> 01:11:23,400 Speaker 1: for them. They remind me of the Peyton Manning Colts, 1453 01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 1: like they only have a handful amount of plays and 1454 01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:29,000 Speaker 1: they just execute them so well, it's like a machine 1455 01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 1: going up into the field. Let's pick this game, Mark, 1456 01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 1: I think the Chiefs are gonna win. Uh. Like again 1457 01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:36,200 Speaker 1: I said, I think it's gonna come down to some 1458 01:11:36,240 --> 01:11:44,679 Speaker 1: sort of defensive turnover that changes the landscape here. Final score. Wow. 1459 01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:47,040 Speaker 1: I don't think the Rams can stop the Chiefs, But 1460 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:49,439 Speaker 1: that goes both ways. And I always picked the Rams, 1461 01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:51,960 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna stay with them. Well, I get how 1462 01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:57,439 Speaker 1: about a little Rams in their building rallying around a 1463 01:11:57,439 --> 01:12:01,880 Speaker 1: lot of drama all around them. Have you made your luck? 1464 01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:04,320 Speaker 1: I have I locked up the Houston Texans. I almost 1465 01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:06,479 Speaker 1: locked up the Rams. I feel good about him. This 1466 01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:10,040 Speaker 1: week I considered locking up the Chiefs. I just think 1467 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:11,960 Speaker 1: that they're the best team in the league and this 1468 01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:14,280 Speaker 1: is gonna be the day to see it. I hope 1469 01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:17,760 Speaker 1: I'm wrong because I couldn't root for the old Oh yeah, 1470 01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:19,479 Speaker 1: you still would be a nice got all this fresh 1471 01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:21,680 Speaker 1: blood the top of the league. Right now, I get 1472 01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:23,400 Speaker 1: the Patriots out of there, Let's get the Chiefs in 1473 01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:26,519 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. The steel is back in the game 1474 01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:29,160 Speaker 1: against the Rams of the Saints. Such as freshen it 1475 01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:31,120 Speaker 1: up a little bit. What do you think, right? It 1476 01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:34,080 Speaker 1: would make my Super Bowl week less stressful, So there's 1477 01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,559 Speaker 1: like a positive to it for you know, it's stressful 1478 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:38,960 Speaker 1: watching your team go like three and thirteen twelve years 1479 01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:42,920 Speaker 1: in a row. Yeah, exactly. Um. By the way, Mark, 1480 01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:46,360 Speaker 1: I officially I have a statement to make about the 1481 01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:50,200 Speaker 1: sandwich prop in the Rams game being moved from Azteca. Uh. 1482 01:12:50,240 --> 01:12:52,800 Speaker 1: There was a lot of social media outcry in in 1483 01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:57,360 Speaker 1: favor of you and support of you. Um My feeling 1484 01:12:57,400 --> 01:13:00,120 Speaker 1: on the issue, which was made clear Wednesday, was that 1485 01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:03,000 Speaker 1: though you hid it in spirit, you did not nail it. 1486 01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:06,560 Speaker 1: So that's why I had voted no. But I understand 1487 01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:10,200 Speaker 1: that people want to see a fun prediction rewarded and 1488 01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:14,479 Speaker 1: for that reason, although I disagree I will recuse myself 1489 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:21,800 Speaker 1: from this matter entirely. That was a non apology apolog Well, 1490 01:13:21,800 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 1: I'm I'm the one who has given the sandwich, and 1491 01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:26,240 Speaker 1: I had already. Yeah, I told someone on Twitter last 1492 01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:30,400 Speaker 1: night when they made the argument, Greg, I have recused myself. Yeah. 1493 01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:33,799 Speaker 1: I responded on Twitter to someone who made the argument 1494 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 1: that it was like the catch rule and that one. 1495 01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:38,519 Speaker 1: You know, I'm a man that can be swayed by 1496 01:13:38,560 --> 01:13:42,200 Speaker 1: logical arguments, and I thought that was a great way 1497 01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:44,880 Speaker 1: to put it, that that you were getting so caught 1498 01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:47,000 Speaker 1: up in in the rule book you had lost sight 1499 01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,080 Speaker 1: of what is a catch, what is not a catch, 1500 01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:51,000 Speaker 1: what is a correct prop, what is not a prop? 1501 01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:53,719 Speaker 1: And ultimately Mark did get it right. And I tried 1502 01:13:53,760 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 1: to get him a sandwich or a burrito today, But well, 1503 01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:01,840 Speaker 1: I even thought about surprising him. No, no, no, I 1504 01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:03,720 Speaker 1: I texted him at eight thirty and sent him the 1505 01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:06,720 Speaker 1: menus because I was getting something for myself too. Uh. 1506 01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 1: And what I was thinking of surprising him? But what 1507 01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:11,000 Speaker 1: are the odds of finding food that Mark likes that well, 1508 01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:15,040 Speaker 1: hold on to my sterious lunch date at three pm? 1509 01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:19,440 Speaker 1: So here two scenarios definitely not at all. Two scenarios. 1510 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:22,960 Speaker 1: One if I just Walston here with a sandwich from Greg, 1511 01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:26,120 Speaker 1: assuming that that would not cause conflict within the room. 1512 01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:29,080 Speaker 1: That it's no, no, no no, I'm saying. I'm saying it's 1513 01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:31,080 Speaker 1: because it's not just. It's not just, it's not just 1514 01:14:31,160 --> 01:14:33,680 Speaker 1: one person's decision. And I'm going to I'm not going 1515 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:36,439 Speaker 1: to accept anything yet either. I'm gonna think about this 1516 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:39,880 Speaker 1: because it feels like something that will come back to 1517 01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:43,320 Speaker 1: haunt me in various ways. When Dan's pulled himself out 1518 01:14:43,320 --> 01:14:45,680 Speaker 1: of the race. I see the long game here, and 1519 01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:47,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna think about it over the weekend. It doesn't 1520 01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:51,919 Speaker 1: matter I give. I'm bringing you the sandwich, so shouldn't 1521 01:14:51,960 --> 01:14:53,519 Speaker 1: either take it or you don't. Could have got hupper, 1522 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:56,680 Speaker 1: were a full of watermelon or something. It's great. It's 1523 01:14:56,680 --> 01:15:00,439 Speaker 1: a democracy. Is three people here. Uh And even if 1524 01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:02,519 Speaker 1: I did keep my horse in the race, I would 1525 01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:04,760 Speaker 1: have been that voted. It sounds like so I think 1526 01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:10,760 Speaker 1: it's a peaceful ending. Well myself. You know, we'll make 1527 01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:13,559 Speaker 1: some space on a on a later episode to revote 1528 01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 1: on the Philly Special, which is much more of a 1529 01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:19,040 Speaker 1: heinous crime than this scenario. Yeah, that I will any 1530 01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:21,759 Speaker 1: sandwich and change hands in a long time. The number 1531 01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:23,880 Speaker 1: of it up. The number of our listeners who have 1532 01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:26,719 Speaker 1: absolutely no respect for the helmet catch blows my mind. 1533 01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:29,600 Speaker 1: People have short memories, so I think a lot of 1534 01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:31,960 Speaker 1: Philly Special looks like in ten years. Is my my 1535 01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:35,360 Speaker 1: argument all along, I will be people are prisoners of 1536 01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:37,080 Speaker 1: the moment. Yes they are. And I think a lot 1537 01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:39,320 Speaker 1: of these listeners weren't even watching football when the helmet 1538 01:15:39,320 --> 01:15:42,639 Speaker 1: catch was made. I don't like how this episode ended. 1539 01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:47,639 Speaker 1: Why no, The Philly Special to me is like every 1540 01:15:47,680 --> 01:15:49,400 Speaker 1: once in a while you will just think about it 1541 01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:52,240 Speaker 1: and they'll be like that absurd. Well when, yeah, when 1542 01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:56,000 Speaker 1: you when you rejected my sandwiches, I was hoping that 1543 01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:58,519 Speaker 1: you didn't like, sort of want it. You didn't want 1544 01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 1: something to be battling again. You do want to win this, right, 1545 01:16:01,920 --> 01:16:05,600 Speaker 1: I very much appreciate your gesture, Greg Erica. Have you 1546 01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 1: noted in today's minutes that I recused myself it's three 1547 01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:15,439 Speaker 1: oh one, al right, good stuff.
