He ran a marathon, did it in under 9 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: three hours, did it under a fake name, and in 10 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 1: you know I costumes the wrong word but you know, incognito. 11 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: I think that's super sick. Speaking of marathons, I turned 12 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: forty one in ten days, instaid I was gonna do 13 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: a triathlon before I turned forty one. I think I'm 14 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: gonna fail on that little self improvement commitment. Fell a 15 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: little shy of the swimming and running training. The biking 16 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: portion I'm good for. But uh but I maybe before 17 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm forty two. So that was something I really I 18 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: was gonna do and then I didn't do. Syracuse fined 19 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: for faking injuries and a win versus Clemson doesn't matter. 20 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: We beat Clemson, Syracuse can pay for it. And in 21 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: you know news that sucks, and you just feel like 22 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: this team is snake bitten. Nicky Bosa tears his ACL 23 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: and the nine the Niners seem demands ay to either 24 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: be the healthiest, deepest team in the league going into 25 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: a deep playoff run, or just ravaged by injury before 26 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: we even get toked Ober with no in between. Just 27 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,759 Speaker 1: every year it feels like that. I and so that's 28 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: a tough one for Nick Bosa. I don't know if 29 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: any team could feel worse about a three and oh 30 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: start than these Niners given all those injuries. Also, before 31 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: we get to the news of last night, which was 32 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: the Baltimore Raven losing to the Detroit Lions in what 33 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: I consider a little demoralizing fashion. Before we get to that, 34 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: a reminder for everyone like rate subscribe review Now, I'm 35 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: not I'm not calling anyone out here. I want to 36 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 1: make this very clear. However, my little competitive nature, my 37 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: back has gotten up a bit because I've noticed popping 38 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: up along the landscape new shows or shows similar to 39 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: this podcast, YouTube whatever, that are out of nowhere, and 40 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: before they even start, they've got hundreds of thousands, and 41 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: in some cases millions of subscribers.

All right, Demon's a tough night for 62 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: your Baltimore Ravens and take us through before we get 63 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: to it. 64 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 2: So last night, my Baltimore Ravens, we coughed up another one. 65 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 2: Lamar was running for his life, Derek Henry with another 66 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,679 Speaker 2: costly fumble. Detroit came back on the next drive, converted 67 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: on fourth, got a touchdown. So we did it for 68 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 2: your team, we should do it for my team too. 69 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 2: Should I be worried about my Ravens with how everything's 70 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 2: going at the moment. 71 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: So I'm glad you listen. I'm glad you put it 72 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: in that context. We did it for the Chiefs for 73 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: being zero in two and now one and two. Should 74 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: we do it for Baltimore? And it is a very 75 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: interesting test of sports media today and who has and 76 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: has not earned benefits of the doubt because eye, silly me, 77 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: Chiefs Homer, lifelong Kansas Citian, got a tattoo about the team. 78 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: Silly me. I would have thought that a team that 79 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: has been to seven consecutive conference championship games, been to 80 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: five of the last six Super Bowls, won three of 81 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: the last six Super Bowls, and been to three straight 82 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: that if any team would have earned a benefit of 83 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: the doubt for sputtering out of the gates, it would 84 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 1: be the Chiefs, but I was wrong. It was a 85 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: lot of talk about how systemically the team may be broken, 86 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: about Patrick not being as good as he once was, 87 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: Andy's play design not being as creative as it once was, 88 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: and about how this team just isn't scary anymore. And 89 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: you know, an at that we'll get to in a minute, 90 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: when over the New York Giants didn't exactly quiet that 91 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: for most people. We'll get to my thoughts on it 92 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 1: in a second. And the tackle that turned the tide trademark, 93 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: as Kevin Wilds would say, I wonder how folks are 94 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 1: going to discuss the Baltimore Ravens now that they are 95 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: one and two with the one victory being an uninspiring 96 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: one over the Cleveland Browns. Now that they the Baltimore Ravens, 97 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: who the benefit of doubt that they have earned is 98 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: being to zero consecutive Super Bowls, zero in the last decade, 99 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 1: one conference championship game appearance. If we are going to 100 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: look at the Baltimore Ravens defense with the same critical 101 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: eye that we have looked at the Kansas City Chiefs offense, 102 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 1: a Baltimore Ravens defense that ultimately last year was not 103 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: good enough, that up to this point this year has 104 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: been down right awful, a Baltimore Ravens team that, on 105 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: top of that, seems to situationally not be the most 106 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: buttoned up in football, and a Baltimore Ravens team that, 107 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: all of a sudden second best player seems to have 108 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: an odd fumbling problem. Now, I don't know if you 109 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: agree with me or not on this, Demanse. I do 110 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: not think that game was lost on the Derrick Henry fumble. 111 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: I think that that game was lost on the Ravens' 112 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: entire inability to get us to stop Detroit from doing 113 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: whatever they wanted on the ground. 114 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair. 115 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: And the two ninety five plus yard drives of Detroit 116 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: just running it down their throat, to me was a 117 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: flashing red light of concern. And it is you know, 118 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: it's kind of perfect that, you know, the Chiefs and 119 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: the Ravens now play each other on Sunday, because one 120 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: of these teams is going to be zero and three 121 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: with three losses to the three legitimate teams they faced, 122 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: and the other team's gonna be two and two. And 123 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: have studied the ship and we'll talk obviously more about 124 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: that game on Thursday and Fridays, I think, but. 125 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah, go ahead, we'll talk about I was 126 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: gonna say, what do you think with Kansas City winning 127 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 2: and Baltimore coming off this loss, that it's a bad 128 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 2: scenario for the Chiefs. Could be a potential trap game? Well? 129 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: No, that again, this is I blame Wilds for this, 130 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: not you. No, And nobody seems to understand what trap 131 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 1: game means anymore. Trap game you're talking about maybe letdown 132 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: spot or something. Trap game? 133 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 2: Is you what? 134 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 1: So let's say the Chiefs had been two to zero 135 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: going into the Giants game with the Ravens coming up 136 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: the following week, then the Giants are a trap game. 137 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: Trap game is team flying high facing a bad opponent 138 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: with a good opponent coming up. Trap game. Perfect example. 139 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: Trap game is what the Packers just dealt with looking great, 140 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: have the Cowboys, you know, kind of not revenge, but 141 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: a big Mica game coming up, and then the Browns 142 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: beat them. That's a trap game. The Chiefs playing the 143 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: Ravens like not a trap game. It is a What 144 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: you're talking about is the Ravens all of a sudden 145 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: potentially more desperate coming off the loss. But desperation is, 146 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 1: you know, accounts for something. Whether or not this team 147 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: is quite as good as everyone assigned them as being 148 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 1: is something else. And so let's talk about the actual 149 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: game itself. So the Ravens defense was disastrous start to finish. Now, 150 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: they didn't have nom Di Matabuque, but I don't know 151 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: when they're getting him back. They didn't have Kyle van Noy, 152 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: but I don't know when they're getting him back. And 153 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: Rokwan Smith was not good. Historically, he's been excellent last year, 154 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 1: was a little shaky. Last night he was not good. Obviously, 155 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: folks are gonna focus on the Derrick Henry fumble. I 156 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: want to talk about Lamar for a second. And again 157 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: I texted this Greg Rosenthal this morning about alleged you know, 158 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: because Greg said he didn't want to be lumped in 159 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: with the quote Lamar haters, And I texted Greg, I 160 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: was like, the Lamar haters group is just Bill Pollion 161 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: from a decade ago in a draft evaluation. And I 162 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: guess me, because everyone else in the media is in 163 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: pretty much lockstep that this guy is simply unimpeachably great 164 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: and one of the greatest players we've ever seen. And 165 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: while I do think he's one of the greatest players 166 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: we've ever seen, I think last night he was not 167 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: quite as good as the numbers suggest. And let me 168 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: tell you why now. Not just because that I don't 169 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: really care about the final eighty yards and touchdown when 170 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: they were down fourteen with less than two minutes left. 171 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: That's not what I'm talking about. Even before that, like 172 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: you started the game nine of ten, his pass rating 173 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: was crazy. He was making some really good passes. There 174 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 1: are two things last night that I feel are not 175 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: one offs that if I were a Raven fan would 176 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: be concerning. One is Lamar's refusal to throw the ball 177 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: away and his hesitation to just take off and run, 178 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: And those two things combining to him being sacked seven 179 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: times is just a killer. Like he was great when 180 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 1: he threw the ball, but he needed to throw the 181 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: ball a little more or a little quicker or take 182 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 1: off and run. Those sacks were drive killers time and 183 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: time again. So that's the kind. 184 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 2: Of potato crazy. And it being seven sacks, that's something 185 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 2: that will get corrected pretty fast. 186 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: Yes, I would think so, But it was the concern 187 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: there is it wasn't corrected during the game. It was 188 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: five sacks, you know, when they were still in the 189 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 1: game and still on that last drive before the drive 190 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: when they punted with like six minutes left, you know, 191 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: he took he got sacked once there and then another 192 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: one he ran, but it was essentially a sack, like, yeah, exactly, 193 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: and here's the other one. And I'm just curious if 194 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: other people noticed it. Man, he seemed to be wound 195 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: tight from the opening snap. 196 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 2: He was pissed off the whole game. Yeah, he was 197 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 2: tilted the entire time I saw it. I don't know 198 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 2: what it was. It was like very simple stuff in 199 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: the beginning. 200 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: So weird that the first drive of the game that 201 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: they didn't score. I don't know which dride it was, 202 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: but the first time they went three and out, his 203 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: like body language and emotions are really yeah and so 204 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: and that is we have seen that Lamar a handful 205 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: of times before. It Unfortunately for him, more often than 206 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: not is in the playoffs, where like early in the game, 207 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: you're like, oh, he is anxious about this spot, but 208 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: they were coming off a win like that. I didn't 209 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: really get it. Why the last time they played Detroit, 210 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: they annihilated him. He has a hilarious record in his 211 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: career against NFC teams. I'm gonna pull it up real 212 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: quick because it now obviously I think he was like 213 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: twenty three and one. Say it again, Okay. 214 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 2: I thought at this point he has like four losses 215 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: total from the NFC. It might be less than that. 216 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: Apparently, I think it's less too. The so lamar, No, 217 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: you were right, you nailed it. So going into last night, 218 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: he was twenty four and four in against the NFC, 219 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: with forty eight touchdowns, nine picks, and like a one 220 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: to oh eight rating. I think maybe he had at 221 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: some point won like twenty straight or something. Whatever it was. 222 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: He had had a ridiculous record against the NFC. He 223 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: had beaten they annihilated the Lions last time they played 224 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: he they had just come off a win, and the 225 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: offense had been great in both games, or they scored 226 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: forty points in both games. It was just a weird 227 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: spot for him to be wound tight immediately, and those 228 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: things concerned me. Man. So here is here is the 229 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: I think fair read. Given everything I've said about the 230 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: Chiefs being fine about where the Ravens are as they 231 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: now both sit at one and two. It is hard 232 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: like what either the Chiefs or the Ravens are gonna 233 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: be one and three Sunday night. It will still be 234 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: so hard to find seven AFC playoff teams without including 235 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: both of the Chiefs and the Ravens. And here's why 236 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: the Bills are three and oh they're excellent. The Chargers 237 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: are three and oh they're excellent. Okay, here is the 238 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: entire list of teams other than Bills and Chargers in 239 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: the AFC that currently have a better record than the 240 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: Ravens and Chiefs. At one and two, we're two teams. 241 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: The call to are three and oh, who look excellent, 242 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: But I think there is still a little bit of 243 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: waiting for the bottom to fall out. And then there 244 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: are only three other teams, and they all feel totally fraudulent. 245 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: They the Cincinnati Banks, well, the Cincinnati Bengals who don't 246 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: have their quarterback, the Steelers who are not good, flatly 247 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: not good. And I worry side, you know, preview to 248 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: Knicks Picks. I cannot wait to be on the Vikings 249 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: this weekend as they play a London or an Ireland game, 250 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: and that defense going after Aaron Rodgers, and then the Jags. 251 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: Who I man, I can't. I have not been pleased 252 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: with how the Jags have played through three weeks. That's 253 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: it right at the and I know it's the playoffs 254 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: obviously don't start today. If the playoffs started today, the 255 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 1: AFC would have a one in two playoff team like 256 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: one of the one and two teams would make it. 257 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: So I will not say that the Ravens at one 258 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: and two or even at one in three should panic 259 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: as is making the playoffs. What I will say is 260 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: one of the reasons I have this confidence about the 261 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: Chiefs is for a nearly a decade now, every single 262 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 1: year they play their best ball in the postseason, home 263 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: or road. No, they play their best ball in the postseason. 264 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: Particularly the AFC side of the bracket. Haven't obviously always 265 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: played their best ball in the super Bowl, but in 266 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: the postseason they had or in the AFC side of 267 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: the bracket they have. The Ravens are the opposite. And 268 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: I think that the defense last year looked hugely problematic 269 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: and then turned it around at mid season. I don't 270 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 1: know if they're going to be able to do that again, 271 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: and so they are still very. 272 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,360 Speaker 2: Politent like this. This is a good offensive, I would 273 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 2: I don't want to call them offensive juggernaut, but damn near, 274 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 2: it's a pretty good team. They're gonna have you. But 275 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 2: like you see, you're one of the better teams. You 276 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 2: got to be able to beat the good teams. 277 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: Correct, right, it's the the Ravens are trying to win 278 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. They're going to have to go through 279 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 1: the Bills, Kansas City, the Chargers just to get to 280 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: whomever is in the other side of the bracket. And 281 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 1: if you were to tell me right now, honestly, if 282 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 1: you have an all time legend at quarterback, like the 283 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: Chiefs and the Ravens both do, what would you rather 284 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: if you're going to have to have one part of 285 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 1: your team really be struggling early in the season, what 286 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 1: would you rather be? Me personally, I'd rather be the 287 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 1: side of the ball that my all time legend can 288 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 1: help correct. So, like, if you're Kansas City, you the 289 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 1: offense has not looked good, but Patrick is directly involved 290 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: in that and has months to figure it out. If 291 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 1: you're Baltimore, the defense has looked awful. Lamar's on the 292 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: sidelines for that, and so that to me is legitimate 293 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: reason for concern. All right, let's talk the Lion's side 294 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: real quick, Demanse well S. 295 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, they struggled in Week one versus Green Bay, but 296 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 2: they've been humming ever since. They are fifth in Super 297 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 2: Bowl odds. Do you think that's too high, too low, 298 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 2: or just right? 299 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: I don't mind it. I listen. I've been really impressed 300 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: by how they've responded to that Week one performance and 301 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: last week putting fifty on the Bears, and this week, 302 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: I mean they've scored what ninety points in their last 303 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: two games after having six points going late, you know, 304 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: late in Week one. Really impressive. And Dan Campbell's game 305 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 1: management is excellent. That going for that fourth down was 306 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: objectively the right call and a call a lot of 307 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: teams up seven wouldn't have done. And you know he 308 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: is doing a lot to push towards will be fine 309 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:41,439 Speaker 1: without Ben Johnson. So yeah, no, the Lions look really, 310 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: really good.

All right, demans, let's 342 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,479 Speaker 1: get to the Chiefs saving their season please? 343 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 2: All right? Yeah, So, as we all know, your Chiefs 344 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 2: got their first victory against the Giants this year, and 345 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 2: you're already back on the never a doubt train with 346 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 2: your tweets. Ugh yeah, so Vegas is. Vegas isn't buying 347 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 2: into their height though they've got them as home dogs. 348 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 2: To my Ravens is Sunday minus three. So what are 349 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: you seeing different about the Chiefs that Vegas is not? 350 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: Well? Listen, I I'm not gonna act like the Chiefs 351 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:58,679 Speaker 1: looked great Sunday night against the Giants. They obviously didn't. 352 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,959 Speaker 1: That first half was horrifying. The first half was really 353 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: truly awful. So let me talk what I do think though, 354 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,719 Speaker 1: And I told this story on the TV show. I'm 355 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: gonna tell it again here because having an encyclopedic memory 356 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: about the Patrick Mahomes era for the Kansasity Chiefs can 357 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: pay dividends. And so let me tell you guys a 358 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 1: quick story. In twenty twenty, the Chiefs with the defending 359 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 1: champions went back to the Super Bowl and got blasted 360 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: by Tampa Bay. The next year, not only did they 361 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: start out three and four, but Mahomes had the first 362 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: real slump of his career. Is with Kelsey this Tyreek. 363 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: They get blown out by Buffalo, they get blown out 364 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: by Tennessee. They then play the Giants and need a 365 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: field goal with a minute left to be a four 366 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: and eventually four win. Joe Judge Giants team to get 367 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: to three and four. The very next week, they play 368 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,239 Speaker 1: the Packers in the game Aaron Rodgers can't play in 369 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: because of That's how we found out he didn't have 370 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: the COVID vaccine because he was on the COVID list. 371 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: And Jordan Love in his first career start comes to 372 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: town and it's one of the ugliest games ever and 373 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: with two minutes left. It is thirteen to seven Kansas City, 374 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: and Mahomes has played terribly okay, And it is third 375 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: and ten and a first down wins the game. And 376 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 1: they don't get a first down, and they could lose 377 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: outright and fall to three and five, and Patrick play 378 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: breaks down. Patrick scrambles to his right off one leg, 379 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: zips in a laser down the sideline to ice the game. 380 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: And I went on TV the next day and said, 381 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: I believe that's the moment Patrick snapped out of his funk. 382 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: I believe that is the moment that the Chiefs will 383 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: be the Chiefs again. And the rest of the season 384 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: they lost one time and made it to the AFC 385 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: Championship Game, where they did lose to the Cincinnati Bengals. 386 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 1: But the rest of it, from that moment forward, they 387 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 1: were as good as any team in football. This year, 388 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: they get blown out in the Super Bowl. They look 389 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: terrible through two weeks. They are playing the New York Giants. 390 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: It is a tie game. Approaching halftime, Patrick attempts to 391 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: swing past Isaiah Pacheco, who runs in the wrong direction. 392 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:57,199 Speaker 1: The ball is live, it is about to be Giants 393 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: thirteen to six, and the Chiefs are going to be 394 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: in dire straits, and Patrick Mahomes runs down the Giants 395 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: player who's about to scoop and score, takes the ball 396 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: back from him, steadies the team, and from that moment 397 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: forward in that game was Patrick Mahomes. 398 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 2: Again. 399 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: I do think we are going to look back on 400 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 1: that moment as the moment the Chiefs steadied themselves. Now, 401 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: are they going to be prolific, dynamic, dominant off the bat? No, 402 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think it's gonna You know, 403 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: Xavier will be back this week, Rice will be back 404 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: in three, Yeah for sure. Oh okay, I'm the I'm 405 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 1: telling everybody Xavier is going to be back this week. 406 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: Uh no, you don't have to know. Not you're bad. 407 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: You are correct in that it has not been report, 408 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: but uh, I will throw on the same fake news hat. 409 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: That hat is fake. The news is real that I 410 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: told you guys. He definitively was not playing in week two, 411 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: and I was not sure if he was playing in 412 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 1: week three. I'm now telling you, barring something unforeseen happening, 413 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: he's playing in week four. So I don't think they're fixed, 414 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: to be clear, but I do think after week one 415 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: I was terrified about the past defense that has slowly 416 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 1: but surely improved. I was frustrated that Patrick still wasn't 417 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: throwing the ball downfield. That has improved. It does appear 418 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: that Tayekwon Thornton might be an in interesting peace. That 419 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: is positive. Xavier coming back, that is positive. Rice, excuse me, 420 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: Rice will be back. That will open things up for Travis. 421 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: And then this is the part of this is the 422 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: part of the team that right now is the shakiest 423 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: and the least inspiring is the running back room. And 424 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: this is where I wonder if Brett Veach is going 425 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: to look at a few teams that are going nowhere, 426 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: those teams being the New York Jets with Breece Hall, 427 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins with Devin h or and this would 428 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: be the dream, the New Orleans Saints with Alvin Kamara 429 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: and say, hey, would you guys like a draft pick 430 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: for your running back? And if that happens, I think 431 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: the Chiefs offense can be remade mid season. I like, 432 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: I love actually how the rookie left tackle has played. 433 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: The right tackle, Juwan Taylor has been good when he's 434 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: not being penalized, and there are real building blocks here 435 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: and now they also have an opportunity to put the 436 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: Ravens in a bit of a tail spin and to 437 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: where they're not the team everyone's panicked about now if 438 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: they lose to the Ravens, which is certainly on the board, 439 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: they are staring at being two and four when Rashi 440 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: comes back. Because you lose to the Ravens, it's very 441 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: hard to then say you expect them to beat the Lions. 442 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: But they do have the Jags in between them, and 443 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: I have not been impressed by the Jags thus far 444 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: this year, but I think the I think this could 445 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: have gone left on Kansas City, and I think it 446 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: was going left when that ball was bouncing around the 447 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 1: MetLife turf and it looked like it was about to 448 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: be thirteen to six Giants, and then Patrick made what 449 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: I believe, and we can come back and check on 450 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: this what will go down as one of the most 451 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: important regular season plays of his career. And I think 452 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: that they've at least been steadied. Before we get to 453 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: the other follow ups, de Monts go to the chat 454 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: question if you would. 455 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 2: Uh, Bryce asked Nick. Let's say the Chiefs are a 456 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 2: lesser version of last year, not flash she will get 457 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 2: into the playoffs at the five spot out in round two. 458 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 2: They still get the benefit of the doubt next year 459 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 2: with this same start. 460 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: No, if they listen, if the Chiefs go ten and 461 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: seven and lose in the divisional round and then start 462 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: next year poorly, then we say okay, like they are 463 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: in a transition phase like the but when they are 464 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: literally still in the midst of the most successful seven 465 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 1: year period any team has had in the history of 466 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:41,360 Speaker 1: the sport. It's to me two games was too quick 467 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: of a trigger, and it isn't. 468 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 2: I'm not even having like their full strength roster. 469 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 1: Correct And now, to be fair, like Danny said this 470 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: on the show yesterday, and he's right, some of the 471 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: problems for the Chiefs are not solved by getting receivers back, 472 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: Like the running back problem is not solved by that. 473 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: The pass rush problem is not solved by that. So 474 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: it's not all that, but that's part of it. But 475 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 1: here's another, I think fun or interesting fact. So the 476 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: Chiefs have made seven straight AFC championship games. The only 477 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 1: team in league history to make more than seven consecutive 478 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 1: conference championship games is the New England Patriots from twenty 479 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:31,239 Speaker 1: eleven to twenty eighteen, they made eight straight. Okay, and 480 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: it's kind of perfect because the Patriots made every championship 481 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: game in the AFC from twenty eleven until twenty eighteen. 482 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 1: In twenty eighteen, they played the Kansas City Chiefs in 483 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: the AFC Championship Game, and from that moment, the Chiefs 484 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: have made every AFC championship game. So from twenty eleven 485 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 1: to twenty twenty four in the Chiefs and the Pats 486 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: have played in every Sea Conference championship game. Exactly right. 487 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 1: In that eight year stretch, Demonsey where the Patriots made 488 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:16,280 Speaker 1: five Super Bowls, won three, and made eight straight conference 489 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: championship games, they started two and two half of those seasons. 490 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: Four of the eight years they started two and two. 491 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: Now didn't start one and three. And so Kansas City, 492 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. This is a big game 493 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: on Sunday, But two and two is not a problem. 494 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 1: And two and two, if it comes with a win 495 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 1: over the Ravens, will make you feel very good. All right, 496 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: Let's get to the follow ups here. 497 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 2: Kelsey had another sideline out burst with Andy Reid, are 498 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 2: you a are you nervous about this? Is this becoming 499 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 2: a thing. 500 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: So listen, let's Andy at halftime said that the team 501 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 1: needed juice. Here's what Andy said after the game. So 502 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: here's the deal. Do I understand the frustration that if 503 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 1: we're listen, this is what's right, we're honest about this stuff, 504 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: that there is a level of passion that white athletes 505 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 1: are you know, get to get away with and not 506 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 1: be you know, painted with a broad brush that black 507 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 1: athletes or not. I totally get that, do I do? 508 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: I think that there is that we you know, whether 509 00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: it be Tom Brady screaming at Bill O'Brien or or 510 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey literally bumping Andy Reid during a Super Bowl 511 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: that plays differently if a lot of things aren't true. 512 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 1: It's not just that they're white, but that helps, but 513 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: also that they're all time legends and they're great and 514 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, that they've won share. All 515 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 1: of that is in the stew of what we're going 516 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 1: to freak out about or not Versus George Pickens throwing 517 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 1: his helmet. I get that piece of it, and I 518 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: understand that people think that's unfair or what I like. 519 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: I get that the distinction that I am going to 520 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,359 Speaker 1: draw and this is not an excuse or even an explanation. 521 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 1: It's just a reality. Is when people are trying to 522 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,760 Speaker 1: use this as evidence something is wrong with the Chiefs, 523 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 1: something is off. The point that I will make is 524 00:36:54,680 --> 00:37:00,120 Speaker 1: when it comes to Travis, He's always been this way. 525 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 1: This is a guy who, in his second year in 526 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: the league had a ref throw a flag at him, 527 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 1: and he picked up the flag and threw it back 528 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: at him. This is a guy that, in the first 529 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 1: padded training camp practice after the Chiefs won a Super 530 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:27,520 Speaker 1: Bowl three years ago, punched a teammate in the helmet. 531 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 2: I rewatched that video last night. That dude didn't even 532 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:30,439 Speaker 2: do nothing. 533 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: I know, I did nothing. That was right. You're talking 534 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 1: about the training camp punch. Yeah, they did nothing. It's 535 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 1: a team, it's a teammate at training camp coming off 536 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. And then Travis went on his pod 537 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,400 Speaker 1: said he's got to be better. And if I remember correctly, 538 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 1: the next week did it again, get another teammate. This 539 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:01,440 Speaker 1: is a guy who during the Super Bowl almost knocked 540 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:05,359 Speaker 1: Andy Reid to the ground in early in the Super 541 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: Bowl they won, and in this instance, he in Week 542 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 1: one head budded Juwan Taylor and in this instance, Andy 543 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: hits him like I'm just gonna be I This was 544 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:26,320 Speaker 1: not Travis hitting Andy again, this was not elder abuse. 545 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: This was Andy bumping Travis and and so right for real, 546 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 1: And so I'm not excusing it. I'm simply saying he's 547 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:51,319 Speaker 1: been he's been this intense for a decade, and to me, 548 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: it is And listen, is there extra frustration for the 549 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 1: Chiefs right now about the offense, no doubt about it. 550 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:03,320 Speaker 1: Do I think that led to Mahomes having two lateral 551 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: backward passes in that game like a little as on edge. 552 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 1: I do think that, like I do, has that maybe 553 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 1: led to Mahomes missing some passes? Sure, but it just 554 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 1: is what it is. And I think that because of 555 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: Andy's disposition and he it's very weird, weird the wrong 556 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: word interesting, what bothers and doesn't bother Andy, And he 557 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:45,759 Speaker 1: is so much more bothered by someone getting in an 558 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 1: illegal formation penalty for lack of attention to detail pre 559 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 1: snap than he is by Kelsey losing his shit on 560 00:39:55,480 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: the sideline, and that just that. So that's where I 561 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 1: stand on it. I don't think I'm if people think 562 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: it's a double standard I have or whatever, like people 563 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: can think whatever they want. I'm just being honest about 564 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 1: what I think about it and how I think it 565 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: impacts or doesn't impact the Chiefs, and so that's where 566 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 1: you know, that's where I stand on that. And as 567 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: far as Chris Jones, if people didn't see it, he 568 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 1: evidently has been trying to get Russell Wilson's jersey for years. 569 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 1: Russ has never given it to him, and then he 570 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 1: was asked after the game if he tried again, and 571 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: Chris said, I don't want it anymore. I would love 572 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 1: to know the real story behind that. Why. Yeah, no, 573 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 1: I listen, No all time great players want you know, 574 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 1: other all time And it's weird because Chris is an 575 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,439 Speaker 1: all time great and so I don't know why Russ 576 00:40:58,440 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't give it. 577 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 2: To him previous players player. 578 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, but does he not jersey swap with anybody? I 579 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 1: don't know, because there's a really have you seen the 580 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 1: video of Miles Garrett talking to Roger rosen Garden of 581 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: the Ravens when rosen Garden was a young player. He's 582 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 1: still relatively young, but I think it was a rookie years. 583 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: It's one of the coolest Miles Garrett videos ever. It's 584 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 1: so awesome. After a Ravens Browns game, Oh russ, Oh, 585 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 1: he changed jerseys with Mahomes. Evidently the Mahomes looks like 586 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: his rookie or second year. 587 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 2: All right. 588 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: So Roger rosen Garden, who's a tackle for the Ravens, 589 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: goes up to Miles Garrett after a game and says, 590 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,839 Speaker 1: like they're doing the handshakes forever. He's like, hey, man, 591 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: I know I'm a nobody, but is there any way 592 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: I could get that jersey from you? And Miles Garrett 593 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 1: said hey. It was like sincerely. It was like, hey man, 594 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: you're in the league, your team's winning games, you're doing 595 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,919 Speaker 1: your thing. You're not a nobody. And he's like, yeah, 596 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 1: I got you. And it was like he was. Rosengarden 597 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,320 Speaker 1: was legit thrilled about it. And it was so cool 598 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,959 Speaker 1: of Miles Garrett after a game, undoubtedly that his team 599 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 1: had lost, and the but a recognize kind of his 600 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: standing in the league, like I'm a standard bearer, I'm 601 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: an all time great. This kid wants my jersey and 602 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm going to lift him up. I thought it was 603 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 1: a really cool Miles Garrett moment. The producers are putting 604 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 1: a bunch of pictures in the chat or in the 605 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 1: dock of Russ doing jersey exchanges. But listen, in Ross 606 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 1: Polson's defense, maybe he only does quarterbacks. Yeah, I mean 607 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: he's doing it with Josh Allen Mahomes and Kyler Murray, 608 00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: so I don't know. And he also did one with 609 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 1: Dk Metcalf, but Dk was a former teammate. I don't know. 610 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you I can't figure this one out. 611 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 1: All right, Before we get to the other stuff, let 612 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:10,880 Speaker 1: me remind you guys, seek geek helping us out, and 613 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:15,919 Speaker 1: see geek helping me out.

All right, demanse, 654 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 1: Let's do Eagles Rams? 655 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, So what the egg's going on over there in Philly? 656 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,240 Speaker 2: Hurts was four for eight in three for eighteen yards 657 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:29,959 Speaker 2: at halftime and then finish the game with two hundred 658 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 2: and twenty six yards and three touchdowns. So what's going 659 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,480 Speaker 2: on over there? Why is Siriani in the offensive coordinator 660 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:38,720 Speaker 2: kind of putting shackles on the offense. 661 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 1: It's so weird because Sunday's game was really bizarre. And 662 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 1: if not for uh Sean McVeigh, as great of a 663 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 1: coach as he is, being so conservative so consistently when 664 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 1: it comes to fourth down stuff, the Rams might have 665 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 1: simply put the game away early on. And obviously the 666 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 1: Eagles needed two blocked field goals in the fourth quarter 667 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 1: to come away with what really is a one point victory, 668 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 1: but we'll go in the books as a seven point victory, 669 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: which will go down as an all time bad beat 670 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:36,840 Speaker 1: for Rams plus three and a half, just an all timer. 671 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: But this, this is not just something to watch but 672 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 1: something that's pretty fascinating, which is the new offensive coordinator 673 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 1: Kevin Battullo and or Nick Sirianni simply don't want to 674 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 1: let Jalen throw the ball and only did it when 675 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:03,400 Speaker 1: they had no other. 676 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 2: Choice, I think, and last like limit. 677 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:15,359 Speaker 1: I get that, but SA's not having a good year. Now. 678 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 1: It's early, but of the five least productive games of 679 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:25,840 Speaker 1: Saquon's career with the Eagles, three of the five have 680 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 1: been weeks one, two, and three. Right. Week one, they're 681 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: in a dog fight, can lose. Week two, they're in 682 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:38,800 Speaker 1: a dog fight, can lose. Week three they're down huge. 683 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:44,880 Speaker 1: So it's not like last year where Saquon's crushing everyone. 684 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 1: They're blowing people out. Why change what we're doing. It 685 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 1: hasn't been that and they still are treating Jalen Hurd's 686 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 1: passing as if it's break glass in case of emergency. 687 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:04,280 Speaker 1: It's really odd. And while I don't, I mean, Jalen 688 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:08,280 Speaker 1: had more passes of ten plus yards down the field 689 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 1: in the second half yesterday or Sunday than he had 690 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,400 Speaker 1: in the previous the first ten quarters of the season, 691 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 1: and so AJ Brown wants them to throw the ball more. 692 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: I think Jalen wants them to throw the ball more. 693 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 1: His posts on the field interviews happy seemed yeah, and 694 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 1: it seemed to imply like we can do this if 695 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 1: you'll let me. And so it is just something to 696 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:42,800 Speaker 1: watch and something interesting because you're not used to seeing 697 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,760 Speaker 1: a team. In fact, it's almost unprecedented for a team 698 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 1: that has a great quarterback, which Jalen hurts is supposed 699 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 1: to be, to look at passing like they call the 700 00:48:55,760 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 1: games like the Ryan Tannehill, Derek Henry Raven or Titans, 701 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,640 Speaker 1: where it's like I get and that team, by the way, 702 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 1: also at AJ Brown, but where it's like, I guess 703 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:12,600 Speaker 1: if we have to, And so that is that is 704 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:16,880 Speaker 1: unique to me, I guess, uh, And something to watch 705 00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:20,359 Speaker 1: and I wonder how it changes this weekend against the Buccaneers. 706 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 1: All right, what else you got here? 707 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,400 Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, you called this year's Eagles last year's Chiefs. 708 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 2: Do you can't explain that? 709 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 1: Uh, yes, I will explain it. Let me hold on 710 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: one of my AirPods just died. Let me see if 711 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 1: I can get it back going again. Talk to me 712 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 1: real quick, Tom, let. 713 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 2: Me see if yeah, Chiefs, Yeah, I got it? 714 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:41,600 Speaker 1: Okay, good? 715 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:41,879 Speaker 2: Yeah? 716 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean to me, it's pretty obvious they are 717 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 1: undefeated in the standings but winless in hypothetical scenarios. If 718 00:49:56,719 --> 00:50:01,080 Speaker 1: CD Lamb could catch, if Travis Kelsey doesn't babble the ball, 719 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 1: if the field goal doesn't get blocked, they are now 720 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:10,240 Speaker 1: to a place where opposing fans are zupprud or filming 721 00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 1: their games to be like missed call? What about this? 722 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 1: Here's a foul. 723 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 2: A little with that team, but that stupid? What do 724 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 2: you mean, Well, it's just like I think that people 725 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 2: are gonna be like, where's the flag at when they've 726 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:28,719 Speaker 2: got that unstoppable touch push like people were, people are 727 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:30,399 Speaker 2: closely and they want like I. 728 00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:33,680 Speaker 1: Think, yeah, but so hold on more on that in 729 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:35,920 Speaker 1: a second. But no, people were doing it on like 730 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,600 Speaker 1: they were like a J. Brown pushed off on his touchdown. 731 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,680 Speaker 1: They they're they're giving them the full not the full 732 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: conspiracy treatment, but the full pouring over it with a 733 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:51,839 Speaker 1: fine tooth comb treatment. Their fans feel like the team 734 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:55,320 Speaker 1: is constantly disrespected, even though they're high in the Super 735 00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,319 Speaker 1: Bowl odds and everybody talks about them as a great team. 736 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 1: And they literally won a game with a blocked kick 737 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 1: like the like the Chiefs did against the Broncos like. 738 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of similarities in that regard. Now, 739 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:16,719 Speaker 1: when it comes to the toush push or as I 740 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: have coined it, did you see this is one of 741 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:24,920 Speaker 1: my what have you coined it? Well, it's not the 742 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: touch push anymore. It's the toush push when other teams 743 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:31,120 Speaker 1: do it, because did you see the Saints try to 744 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 1: do it and they got called for a false start? 745 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 1: And they did. The Saints did it early in their game, 746 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 1: got called for a false start. The Eagles did it 747 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 1: early in their game, did false start and didn't get 748 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 1: called for it, And on the broadcast, Mike Preyer pointed out, Yeah, 749 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 1: that same right guard, he's false starting again, which is 750 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:54,240 Speaker 1: why it's no longer the touch push demonse when Philly 751 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: does it, it's the early bird. 752 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:02,359 Speaker 2: That's the early that's a good one. 753 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,880 Speaker 1: The early bird that's a good one. It's the early Bird. 754 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,600 Speaker 1: They they can do it, only they can do it. 755 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 1: And so years ago they tried to get Brotherly Shoved going. 756 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,759 Speaker 1: So it was like Philly related. It didn't take on. 757 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 1: The early Bird's gonna take on. All right, Let's get 758 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:22,960 Speaker 1: to some of these other games. My god, there's so 759 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 1: many games. We're gonna have to do these fast, buddy. 760 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:29,239 Speaker 2: So the Chargers first three and oh starts since twenty 761 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:31,080 Speaker 2: twenty two, and Herbert has. 762 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:35,360 Speaker 1: Since two thousand and two, hold on since two crap yeah. 763 00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 2: Number one, yeah, two thousand and two, guys, So he's 764 00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,760 Speaker 2: got the third best odds to win IMVP right now. Denver. 765 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 2: On the other hand, they have not start off great. 766 00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:46,520 Speaker 2: You've already taken your victory up there, he said. You 767 00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:50,400 Speaker 2: didn't like that preseason debate on them. Yeah, bigger story 768 00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 2: is the Broncos early struggles or the Chargers hot start. 769 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:57,879 Speaker 1: Well, for most it's the Chargers hot start. And let 770 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 1: me listen, Chargers look great, looks amazing Herbert made. Herbert 771 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 1: didn't really play great this weekend, but he made the 772 00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:14,719 Speaker 1: play to win the game. And this was Herbert's least 773 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:19,080 Speaker 1: productive game then. But it also had his most iconic play, 774 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 1: and that play up to this point is I think 775 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:26,400 Speaker 1: the offensive play of the NFL season is that Herbert 776 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:30,399 Speaker 1: throw after the Chargers had blown the lead to get 777 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 1: them back. You know, I think that tied the game, 778 00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:34,919 Speaker 1: and then obviously they win it on the field goal. 779 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 1: Chargers are going to be someone to deal with now. 780 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 1: The injuries are starting to mount a bit, and you 781 00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 1: always worry about that with the Chargers, but there's obviously 782 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 1: someone to watch. The Denver thing, though, for me, is 783 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 1: the story because I took so much shit from annoying 784 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:58,200 Speaker 1: Denver media and fans about being scared of them, about 785 00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 1: not respecting them, about all of this, when through three 786 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:08,239 Speaker 1: games they are the exact team I told you they 787 00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:15,960 Speaker 1: would be a very good defense whose offensive quarterback can 788 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 1: not cut it against good teams. And up to this 789 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:26,840 Speaker 1: point in the season, they beat the Titans, lost to 790 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 1: a three and oh Colts team, and lost to a 791 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 1: three and oh Chargers team, and bo Nicks has been 792 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:39,840 Speaker 1: shaky the entire season, made a few really nice plays 793 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 1: and missed a bunch of wide open guys, And this 794 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 1: wouldn't be something to harp on except for two facts. 795 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 1: One is, if you remember Demanse when I said that 796 00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 1: I thought the Broncos were gonna finish last in this 797 00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 1: division and the Broncos weren't going to make the playoffs. 798 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,399 Speaker 1: I baked into it that I thought they might get 799 00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:06,439 Speaker 1: off to an excellent start. That I was like, Oh, 800 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: people are gonna be throwing stuff in my face early 801 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:17,000 Speaker 1: and then late in the year when the schedule goes Chiefs, Commanders, Raiders, Packers, Jags, Chiefs, Chargers, 802 00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:21,439 Speaker 1: that's when the falloff's gonna happen. Fall off. They might 803 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,760 Speaker 1: not get there before the falloff happens. So that's one reason. 804 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:29,680 Speaker 1: The other one is Sean Payton said this was one 805 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: of seven teams he ever coached that he thought actually 806 00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 1: could win the Super Bowl. For the record, here, guys, 807 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:44,360 Speaker 1: Sean Payton coached the New Orleans Saints for fifteen years, 808 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:50,520 Speaker 1: so he told us this is better than nearly a 809 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 1: dozen of his Saints teams with Drew Breesh. Okay, let's 810 00:55:55,080 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 1: see it, and I I think the Broncos have a 811 00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:08,680 Speaker 1: great defense, a coach who bit off a little more 812 00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:12,000 Speaker 1: than he could choose expectation wise, and a limited quarterback. 813 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:16,760 Speaker 1: That's what I thought going into the year, and we'll 814 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:19,319 Speaker 1: By the way, I also had to hear all off 815 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 1: seasons like, oh, what about the additions of Ufanga and Greenlaw? 816 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:25,879 Speaker 1: And I said, listen, those are two excellent players who 817 00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:29,520 Speaker 1: have had trouble staying healthy thus far. Hufanga's been really good, 818 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 1: green Law hasn't played a game for them. All right, 819 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:35,439 Speaker 1: let's get too Brown's packers, please. 820 00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:37,960 Speaker 2: All right, everybody was drunk on Green Bay. That hit 821 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 2: a little snag with that Brown's loss this weekend. They 822 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:45,959 Speaker 2: allowed thirteen straight fourth quarter points. After the game, Parsons said, 823 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 2: undefeated seasons, they're hard in the NFL, and sometimes, just 824 00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 2: like today, you ask the bed, even the best Super 825 00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 2: Bowl champs make mistakes. Clearly, the team's expectations have not changed, 826 00:56:57,960 --> 00:56:59,919 Speaker 2: have yours at all? After seeing that game? 827 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 1: Listen, No, And in fact, this was a game that 828 00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:07,240 Speaker 1: kind of confirmed to me my take when they traded 829 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 1: for Micah, which is that Jordan Love's the most intriguing 830 00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 1: player in the NFL this year because they have the 831 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:20,480 Speaker 1: pieces to be a true A List contender. Jordan just 832 00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 1: can't screw it up, and in that Browns game, he 833 00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:28,560 Speaker 1: screwed it up. That Browns defense is excellent. I'm not 834 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 1: even gonna kill the Packers for not being very productive 835 00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 1: on offense. I'm not gonna kill Jordan Love for not 836 00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 1: being productive on offense because they didn't need to be. 837 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 1: What he needed to do was not make a mistake. 838 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 1: And when you're up ten to three with a few 839 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:48,480 Speaker 1: minutes left and the Browns have done nothing on offense 840 00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:51,920 Speaker 1: the entire game, all you can't do is throw a 841 00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 1: pick in your own territory. And that's what he did. 842 00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:58,920 Speaker 1: And like people are gonna get on Micah about getting 843 00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 1: ahead of himself, the pack defense was excellent in that game. 844 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 1: The Packers defense allowed. Yes, they allowed a touchdown at 845 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 1: the end, but that drive started at the four thanks 846 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 1: to the pick. All you have to do is not 847 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 1: turn the ball over. Now, to Jordan's credit, he did 848 00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:20,320 Speaker 1: drive them then back down the field for what should 849 00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 1: have been the game winning field goal, but that got 850 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 1: blocked in the weekend of blocked kicks. If Jordan Love 851 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 1: can just be steady, the Packers can beat anybody. But 852 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:37,520 Speaker 1: when he turned there in his career, they're four and fourteen, 853 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 1: or sorry, fourteen and four. When he doesn't turn the 854 00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:44,160 Speaker 1: ball over and have a I don't remember exactly what 855 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:47,000 Speaker 1: it is, but a really bad record, losing record when 856 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:51,240 Speaker 1: he does. Just don't turn the ball over, bro. And 857 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 1: if you have to get in a shootout, I think 858 00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 1: he has the talent to win some shootouts. But that 859 00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:59,640 Speaker 1: wasn't one of those games. Hey.

All right, demons, 873 00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:51,960 Speaker 1: let's get to cowboys bears before we get to our 874 00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:52,800 Speaker 1: quick hitters. 875 00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:55,480 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, so my guy, Caleb Williams due for nearly 876 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:58,560 Speaker 2: three hundred yards and four touchdowns. He's my guy. Now 877 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,280 Speaker 2: I'm taking them from you longer your guy. 878 01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 1: Wow. 879 01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:06,240 Speaker 2: But it was against that lowly Cowboys defense. Do you 880 01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:08,960 Speaker 2: think that we learned anything new about Caleb Williams in 881 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:09,880 Speaker 2: this game? 882 01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 1: The I think yeah. It was obviously a super positive game. 883 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:20,360 Speaker 1: Obviously the Cowboys defense is going to give a lot 884 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 1: of guys great games. But Caleb took advantage of it. 885 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:29,120 Speaker 1: And we've seen steady progression. And now the Bears have 886 01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 1: a chance. They play the Raiders on Sunday, then they 887 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 1: have the bye, beat the Raiders get your bye, and 888 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 1: then you know who they play Week six to Monday, 889 01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 1: the team that ended their year last year, Jaden and 890 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:47,280 Speaker 1: the Commanders on the Hail Mary, you know what I mean. 891 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 1: So it's a good flip the narrative opportunity for them. 892 01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,320 Speaker 1: Will say it again. 893 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 2: Will Jaden be in that game? 894 01:00:55,080 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 1: I would imagine because Jaden missed Week three, that game 895 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 1: is week six. I don't think Jayden's gonna miss four 896 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,440 Speaker 1: weeks with his knees sprain, you know, and so I 897 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:09,040 Speaker 1: I would imagine he'll be there. 898 01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:11,360 Speaker 2: That's a good. 899 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:14,600 Speaker 1: Demons is Jade and your guy. 900 01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Jayden's white guy too. 901 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: I like, like, okay, you can't have the same draft class. 902 01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 1: Everybody knows that. Yeah, And so that Caleb, as CJ. 903 01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:33,680 Speaker 1: Shrouds teaching everybody, life can come at you fast in 904 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:37,440 Speaker 1: this league, and narratives can flip fast, and so like, 905 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:40,320 Speaker 1: this is a really good opportunity for Caleb. Now you 906 01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:43,600 Speaker 1: don't want to get over your skis about it, but 907 01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:46,240 Speaker 1: he was excellent in that game. And the Cowboys are 908 01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 1: just a mess. And now Ceedee Lamb, by the way, 909 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 1: the Nick Wright injury inflation calculator stays undefeated. Ceedee Lamb 910 01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:03,520 Speaker 1: initial reporting high ankle sprain, but escaped major injury. Latest 911 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:06,720 Speaker 1: reporting he's gonna miss at least two weeks, maybe four. 912 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:11,360 Speaker 1: So the Cowboys this can get away from them in 913 01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:16,080 Speaker 1: a hurry. They are a sixty four yard field goal 914 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:21,040 Speaker 1: against the Giants away from being zero and three. And 915 01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:25,120 Speaker 1: without Ceedee Lamb, this offense isn't gonna be able to 916 01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 1: keep up, and the defense is awful, and so they 917 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 1: tray Von Diggs is not right, Bland is hurt, they 918 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 1: don't have a pass rush. Cowboys might be cooked here, 919 01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 1: and so they're gonna put it all on Dak's shoulders, 920 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:46,920 Speaker 1: and Javonte Williams been decent, but I don't know how 921 01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:51,480 Speaker 1: much I trust the Cowboys' ability, you know, to get 922 01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 1: to six wins, much less be a real playoff contender. 923 01:02:56,840 --> 01:03:00,320 Speaker 1: All right, before we get to you know, six sixty 924 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:04,160 Speaker 1: seconds ish on every other game, let me remind you, 925 01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:07,760 Speaker 1: guys about my friends at HOF who helped me write 926 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:12,040 Speaker 1: my own ending to this weekend's football.

All right, demons, we're gonna quickly go through 950 01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:36,760 Speaker 1: these games. You and me Bill's Dolphin's Thursday Night. It 951 01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:40,680 Speaker 1: was very odd to me that after that game was 952 01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:43,720 Speaker 1: the day people, you know, Greeney and others came out 953 01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 1: with the Josh Allen's Greatest player I've ever seen take 954 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:49,880 Speaker 1: Like I thought Josh Allen was fine in that game. 955 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:52,520 Speaker 1: They you know, they were. That story to me was 956 01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:56,960 Speaker 1: about the running backs and it was about Tua just 957 01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:01,480 Speaker 1: not having the juice, like they did everything they could 958 01:05:01,600 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 1: in that game to be competitive, and then the roughing 959 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:08,520 Speaker 1: the punter is just a killer. But despite that, they 960 01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 1: had a chance and Tua just threw an inexplicable pick, 961 01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:15,479 Speaker 1: and now everyone in Miami's got to be like, man, 962 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:17,640 Speaker 1: why is this the guy. 963 01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:20,520 Speaker 2: Okus a little bit right, Daniel? 964 01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:24,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, well yeah, but McDaniel, here's the deal. I think 965 01:05:24,640 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 1: McDaniel signed off on giving two of that money. But 966 01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:33,560 Speaker 1: they're just they're in brutal shape. Bucks escape again against 967 01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:36,560 Speaker 1: the You know, this was a weird one because the 968 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:39,040 Speaker 1: Bucks were kicking a field goal to ice the game 969 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,960 Speaker 1: up twenty six twenty It gets blocked and returned for 970 01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:45,840 Speaker 1: a touchdown. All of a sudden, they're down twenty seven 971 01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:49,040 Speaker 1: to twenty six. The Bucks and Baker then do what 972 01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:52,040 Speaker 1: the Bucks and Baker do, drive down the field. I 973 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:55,440 Speaker 1: did not get the Baker live bet in shamefully, I was. 974 01:05:55,680 --> 01:06:00,400 Speaker 1: It's too much going on in that moment. The Buck win, 975 01:06:00,840 --> 01:06:03,479 Speaker 1: but it was a costly win. They are now down 976 01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:08,040 Speaker 1: Demons currently three offensive linemen. One of their best pass rushers, 977 01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:13,280 Speaker 1: Mike Evans, you know, tweaked that hamstring right, and now 978 01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:16,680 Speaker 1: they play Philly. But the Bucks have to feel amazing 979 01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:19,880 Speaker 1: that despite all these injuries, they're three to zero with 980 01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 1: three final minute wins, and now they've given themselves a 981 01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 1: little margin of error the Colts blasted the Titans. This 982 01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:29,880 Speaker 1: is one of the worst. I had three of the 983 01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 1: worst bets I've ever had on this show. This was 984 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:38,360 Speaker 1: one of them. I picked it the Titans plus points, 985 01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:40,520 Speaker 1: said they could win out right. The game starts with 986 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:48,920 Speaker 1: a pick six and it is just unbelievable. Uh, the 987 01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:50,439 Speaker 1: Colts look really, really good. 988 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:56,120 Speaker 2: What do you think about Danny? I mean, there's something there, 989 01:06:56,160 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 2: and there is something he said about his calmness in 990 01:06:58,680 --> 01:07:02,480 Speaker 2: the pocket. The really will just sit there and get 991 01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:03,560 Speaker 2: rid of it. He doesn't panic. 992 01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:07,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I like this, So, I mean, listen, I don't 993 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 1: believe that this Colts thing is sustainable, but I have 994 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:14,960 Speaker 1: to be fair. They've been unbelievable. They've been written now. 995 01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:17,680 Speaker 1: Part of it is playing the Titans and the Dolphins. 996 01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:22,680 Speaker 1: But still like three and oh's three and oh and 997 01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:26,360 Speaker 1: they look great. The Jags beat the Texans. The Jags 998 01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:28,920 Speaker 1: did not look good. They do not yet know how 999 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:34,800 Speaker 1: to use Travis Hunter, which is so disappointing. And the 1000 01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:40,640 Speaker 1: Texans bro the Texans demonte have allowed fifty one total points. 1001 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,440 Speaker 1: They've allowed fifty one points and they're own three. The 1002 01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:47,920 Speaker 1: defense has the first team in twenty years to allow 1003 01:07:47,960 --> 01:07:50,560 Speaker 1: fewer than fifty five points through three weeks and not 1004 01:07:50,640 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 1: have a win. And CJ's just a shell of himself 1005 01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 1: and that offense. 1006 01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 2: So it's the top three quarterbacks in the league after 1007 01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:01,320 Speaker 2: his first year in the league. 1008 01:08:01,600 --> 01:08:04,880 Speaker 1: Man, he did a lot after that first year, did 1009 01:08:04,920 --> 01:08:08,720 Speaker 1: that world tour with Micah was given. You know, was 1010 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:11,640 Speaker 1: coaching up Kaleb as a young fella after week two, 1011 01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:15,480 Speaker 1: and it's just he's got to be better. That offense 1012 01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:17,320 Speaker 1: has to be better. And I'm ready to say the 1013 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 1: Texans are done, like zero to three. I just think 1014 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,920 Speaker 1: they're done. The Steelers beat the Patriots and one of 1015 01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:28,400 Speaker 1: the worst football games ever played. The Patriots turned the 1016 01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:33,320 Speaker 1: ball over five times. The Aaron Rodgers did not play 1017 01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:35,240 Speaker 1: very well in that game, but it didn't matter. The 1018 01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 1: Patriots moved the ball. That Steelers defense, good for them 1019 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:41,639 Speaker 1: for forcing turnovers, but I do not believe in that team, 1020 01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:45,479 Speaker 1: and I think they're gonna go overseas. Yes, I mean 1021 01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:50,320 Speaker 1: the forcing the turnovers is good, uh, but the Pats 1022 01:08:50,360 --> 01:08:52,599 Speaker 1: don't know how to win. And I think the Steelers 1023 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:55,680 Speaker 1: have looked incredibly shaky to be two and one. Commanders 1024 01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:59,120 Speaker 1: beat the Raiders in a game hand up that I 1025 01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:03,639 Speaker 1: didn't watch much because Jade wasn't playing and the Raiders 1026 01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:07,599 Speaker 1: right now just can't block. Credit to Gino for making, 1027 01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: you know, moving the ball somewhat. Ashton gent still now 1028 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:15,719 Speaker 1: has more yards after contact than he has total yards, 1029 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:18,479 Speaker 1: and the Commanders get a nice one with the backup quarterback. 1030 01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:21,200 Speaker 1: This is another one of my worst bets ever. I 1031 01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:24,400 Speaker 1: had the Falcons laying five on the road. They get 1032 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 1: beat thirty to nothing. Bryce didn't even really play well. 1033 01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:32,840 Speaker 1: Bryce had like one hundred and forty yards. This was 1034 01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:38,679 Speaker 1: Michael Pennox was awful, just awful, And that's a concerning one. 1035 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:43,600 Speaker 1: That's a horrible, horrible loss for the Atlanta Falcons. The 1036 01:09:43,720 --> 01:09:48,839 Speaker 1: Vikings defense makes Jake Browning look just horrific. That defense 1037 01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 1: looked amazing. The Vikings also oddly ruled out JJ McCarthy 1038 01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:59,719 Speaker 1: for Week four right after that game. That was curious 1039 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,639 Speaker 1: to me. But they're rolling with WinCE for this overseas 1040 01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:06,759 Speaker 1: game against Pittsburgh. The Seahawks beat the Saints by a million. 1041 01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,160 Speaker 1: I didn't watch that game. I know thee The Saints 1042 01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:12,680 Speaker 1: are a mess. They're probably I thought the Panthers were 1043 01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 1: the worst team in football. It looks like it's the 1044 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:18,879 Speaker 1: Saints and the forty nine ers and Mac Jones, despite 1045 01:10:18,920 --> 01:10:22,559 Speaker 1: a late Mac interception, get the stop they need against 1046 01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:25,200 Speaker 1: the Cardinals and then drive down for a field goal. 1047 01:10:25,200 --> 01:10:28,160 Speaker 1: They're three to zero, but they lose Nicky Bosa for 1048 01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 1: the year. That's the whole rest of the league we 1049 01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:34,400 Speaker 1: didn't talk about. Also, Ben Simmons, I gotta tell you 1050 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:38,519 Speaker 1: they went fishing that the people that listen to this 1051 01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:39,080 Speaker 1: show a lot. 1052 01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:39,240 Speaker 2: No. 1053 01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:43,559 Speaker 1: I love fishing. I'm a little jealous that fish in 1054 01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:47,120 Speaker 1: the bottom right, I have caught one of those. The 1055 01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:49,320 Speaker 1: other three fish that he caught, I have not. And 1056 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,000 Speaker 1: the one in the top right looks amazing. That's not 1057 01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:54,240 Speaker 1: the one that Yeah, that's me a long time ago. 1058 01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:57,479 Speaker 1: But that fish in the top right looks sick. The 1059 01:10:57,520 --> 01:11:00,160 Speaker 1: fish in the bottom right I've caught. I think I've 1060 01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:02,160 Speaker 1: caught one of those, at least from where it looks 1061 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:06,640 Speaker 1: like here. All right. M Trey asked me, Demons, I'm 1062 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:09,400 Speaker 1: gonna do these real quick. Uh is my Ryder Cup 1063 01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:12,400 Speaker 1: pick USA or Europe? It's USA, obviously, because I'm going 1064 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:17,000 Speaker 1: to it. Benjamin asked, do I have any recommendations for 1065 01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:19,480 Speaker 1: raising a child to be a sports fan? I'm from Minnesota, 1066 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:22,840 Speaker 1: but living in Chicago. Uh, don't would love him to 1067 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:24,439 Speaker 1: root for my teams. Won't want to push him. You 1068 01:11:24,479 --> 01:11:27,400 Speaker 1: gotta He's your kid. One of the things in life 1069 01:11:27,439 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 1: you get to decide is what teams your kid roots 1070 01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,799 Speaker 1: for as a kid, Make them root for your teams 1071 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:35,160 Speaker 1: like that, and then if as an adult, if they 1072 01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:40,000 Speaker 1: want to change, they can change. And Daniel says he's 1073 01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:42,639 Speaker 1: a loyal Cardinals fan. What was Arizona need to succeed 1074 01:11:42,680 --> 01:11:46,960 Speaker 1: and win their division? Listen, I don't I like the 1075 01:11:47,040 --> 01:11:50,479 Speaker 1: head coach, and I like what they're building defensively. Most 1076 01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:53,920 Speaker 1: important thing right now is is Marvin Harrison Junior's got 1077 01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:57,040 Speaker 1: to get back to being Marvin Harrison Junior. Speaking of that, 1078 01:11:57,160 --> 01:12:00,799 Speaker 1: Chris says, did Jim Harbaugh body swap Quentin Johnson Marvin 1079 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:04,639 Speaker 1: Harrison Junior. It's unbelievable, the Marvin Harrison Junior fall off. 1080 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 1: I did not see coming. All Right, I've got to 1081 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:11,519 Speaker 1: go so like rate subscribe review to the pod that 1082 01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:15,120 Speaker 1: we are organically growing No bots here, Yeah, they're not 1083 01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:19,400 Speaker 1: buying pages. Also, I'll be on with Colin in about 1084 01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:22,800 Speaker 1: ninety minutes. Justin Herbert's on with Colin in like an hour, 1085 01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:25,200 Speaker 1: so that's pretty cool.
