00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 1: The Around the NFL Podcast has more arm strength than

00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:11,960
Speaker 1: Matt Shaw. Welcome to another attion of the Around the

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,440

Speaker 1: be back. Welcome boys. It hurt listening to you, guys

7
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,159
Speaker 1: have so much fun without me. But he did a

8
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: good job, almost too good of a job. Maybe the

9
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: show is better off without me. You were simply doing

10
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: your job, though a lot of high level responsibilities come

11
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 1: your way beyond our knowing, and you had to go

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: tend to those. Yeah. Well, the Ray Rice week, Let's

13
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: not fool around here, hasn't been the most fun week

14
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: in the world at the NFL. Walking into a newsroom

15
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 1: that was owned and operated by the NFL during the

16
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: Ray Rice situation not exactly loose is not how I

17
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: would term the the environment. By the way, TD, what's

18
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: up with the new chairs. There's no arm rest or anything.

19
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm just floating in space like Sandra Bullock.

20
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,559
Speaker 1: Good one. We're getting ready to start taping the show, guys,

21
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 1: and I feel like I'm in the first chow those

22
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: are those are seats and cheers for TV. You can't

23
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: have arm rest, get too relaxed and just hanging out,

24
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: you know. So Dan correctly does not site himself as

25
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: the clooney aspect of that film. You would have to

26
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 1: go Bullock, You're so much more. I'm more John Hamm obviously,

27
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: so I don't want to get cluney. That is also

28
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 1: a fiction. So um, listen, that's what That's what was

29
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: decided by a nationally recognized casting director and insider's my wife.

30
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, alright, so great show today, very excellent show.

31
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: Right off the top. Though, let's get right into a

32
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: follow up to yesterday's show or Wednesday show. Excuse me,

33
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: Greg Rosenthal, you had to sit out as we alluded to,

34
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: uh for boss like reasons, and with let's go over

35
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: some of the go get my sandwich propositions that that

36
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: last part is supposed to be implied. Yes, also what

37
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: you thought you had learned it? Yeah, um, I'm sorry, apologies,

38
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: So let's just go over real quick, because you deserve

39
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: to be involved with this year the Boss, so let's

40
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: listening to it. How am I do have a few

41
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: thoughts before we start? Very quickly? I noticed Mark Sessler

42
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: was very uh conservative. He didn't want to get into

43
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: too many sandwich propositions, and it seems like there was

44
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: a monetary aspect. You didn't want to put too much

45
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: on the line. But I think you outthought yourself because

46
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: the only the way to win sandwiches is to be

47
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: in on every proposition, because we never get our propositions right.

48
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: You almost always lose your own and you win the

49
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 1: other ones. That's fair point. However, I don't even want sandwiches.

50
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: And then the other thing is half your propositions are

51
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: wishing ill on the greatest players of the last generation.

52
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: Is it weird? Or am I swinging for the fences

53
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: on an entertainment angle? You don't know. I don't know.

54
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to root for Peyton Manning's career to

55
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: be over. Tom Brady douting it for it to be

56
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: over through doom. He just he's he's almost forty years old,

57
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: and he's going to say at the end of the season,

58
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: it's been great. Don't wish me, don't wish me ill.

59
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 1: You've seen these women with psychic powers who help out

60
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: the police, and they see ahead of time. Somebody's can

61
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: get murdered. It's not that they wish that upon them,

62
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,679
Speaker 1: it's just what they see marks the same way, right, Greg,

63
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: would you be like dear women with those powers? Don't

64
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: tell anyone. Let's get a lot of show to get to.

65
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: I hope the sandwiches tastes great, you know, when you're

66
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: chomping on the remains of Peyton Manning and Tom Brady's career,

67
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 1: enjoying that very angry Patriots fan here. Well, yeah, let's

68
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: go through. Let's just move let's just move forward. Greg, alright,

00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: so let's run through them all, um, just give you

70
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: an opportunity to get in on sandwiches. Uh, I'll start

74
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: tas Uh. Jason Garrett survives the season, coaches all sixteen

75
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: games for account Boys. I'm not gonna take that one.

76
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: Geno Smith starts sixteen games. I'm not gonna take that one.

77
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: J J. Watt more sacks than DeMarcus Ware and Von

78
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 1: Miller combined. Oh, I'll take that one and I'll have

79
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 1: some potata salad on the side. That's that guarantee. Give

80
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: me a break. That one. Wow, Greg very dismissive of

81
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: Dan's round of question. Here we go. I have Jimmy

82
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: Garoppolo will play at least one game, start at least

83
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: one game. I'll take that sandwich. Next, you're gonna gich

84
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: on that number. Two, the Jets will finish the season

85
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: with a winning record. I'll take a sandwich on that one.

86
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: You guys are crazy. Number three Lebron Lebron James and

87
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Cavaliers will win more games in their first

88
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 1: seven games. Then the Browns will win all season. I

89
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: won't take that. That was a fun one. I like

90
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: your spinning his hands furiously. He wants to talk again.

91
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning will play sixteen more games starting a week two.

92
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 1: That means they get to the wild card round. They

93
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: lose Anie Retie years. That's so wrong. I'll take a

94
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: sandwich for that finger sandwich. By the way, got a

95
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: lot of field beds here. Brandon Cook offensive rookie Okay

96
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: St Louis Rams finished at or take the field and

97
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace leads the a f C East in receiving yards.

98
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: That was a perfect one. I'm not going to take that.

99
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: And Matthew Stafford Matt Ryan both finished with more yards

100
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: than Peyton Manny. Matthew Stafford, I didn't hear that. I

101
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: guess they must have missed that. Matthew Stafford and Matt

102
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: Ryan each have more passing yards than Peyton Manning. I'll

103
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: take a sandwich on that one. I like to get involved.

104
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and TD, your Macatron one is ridiculous. I'll

105
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: definitely take a sandwich for that. So just give it

106
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: all and fly and finally you and you want to

107
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: throw out a well, we gotta play a little bit, uh,

108
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:55,239
Speaker 1: Charlie Castily here alright, Jake Locker, we'll have more passing

109
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 1: yards this year than two of the following three players

110
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: r G three, Russell Wilson and Colin Kaepernick. I'm taking

111
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: that one. I'm taking that one because Locker will be

112
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: hurt by mid season. I'll take that too. Make the

113
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: whole round, okay, Jake Locker, you're my boy, all right.

114
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: NFC East will have three losing teams in it. No

115
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: one gets to eight and eight other than the Winter.

116
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 1: I'm not taking that. I'm not touching that disastrous. Those

117
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: teams are horrible. Statistically, that's tough to do well. Have

118
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 1: you seen these teams? They get to play each other

119
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: else Mike Zimmer will get more votes for Coach of

120
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: the Year than Peyton Manning or Drew Brees get for

121
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: m v P. How are we going to measure well?

122
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: They list the votes. I don't know. Mark got wacky

123
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: with this Browns thing. I thought I should try to

124
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: get creative. I like that. That's very nuanced. I'm not

125
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: going near it. Is it possible to get more votes

126
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 1: for the year the same amount of voters voters? I

127
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: will take you up on that one. Can you repeat

128
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: it again, Mike Zimmer, We'll get more votes for Coach

129
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 1: of the Year than Peyton Manning or Drew Brees will

130
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 1: get for m v P. I will definitely take it.

131
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,359
Speaker 1: Made my brain breaks, so I won't take it on principle.

132
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: That was it. I thought we only had three yesterday.

133
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: That's good, Okay, good listen, Mark, this has nothing to

134
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: do with me wanting to talk. We have a lot

135
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: of show to get who's talking right now, Well, well,

136
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: the host is talking, so listen up. Son. I only

137
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: took it as quick. Get back to me, Get back

138
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: to me. I do think we should award a winner

139
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: for every podcast at the end, maybe the viewers could decide.

140
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: And yesterday Mark was the winner. Yes, Cold Medicine and

141
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: I have been for about a week and I don't

142
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: remember any of the market going to get a four

143
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: game suspension for p D. We got one tweet that said,

144
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: whatever you put in Mark Sessler's coffee on Wednesday? Can

145
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: he do that every episode? Mark? Are you okay with

146
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: the praise being heaped on you? Or can we move

147
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: forward to the show. It's just based on on falseness,

148
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: because I have really my mind is not operating correctly. Alright,

149
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: So we have a whole slate of games to get to.

150
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: But let's start by going into the future. Gentlemen, We're

00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: gonna off their analysis, So TD, can can we get

155
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: in the time, Gene throw it to those guys and

156
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: then bring it back to us. All right, let's do it.

157
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: Thank you, Dan, you know so here we are in

158
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: the future, Yes, and we have you and I have

159
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 1: had the benefit of listening to the show that we're

160
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: about to continue to do downstairs. It is not funny

161
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: at all. I would say it's a very poor for

162
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: poor performance from Dan especially. I would turn it off

163
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: right now. Wow, Chat's fired? Is that not accurate? You

164
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: listen to it too, It goes right down a cliff.

165
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,079
Speaker 1: It could it could use some work, But the best

166
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: five minutes of the show are coming up right now

167
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: because we're gonna talk a little Thursday Night football and

168
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens delivering a convincing win against the Pittsburgh's

169
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: a game the Ravens I think needed to win. You

170
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 1: couldn't lose two straight games at home and the division,

171
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: and they played like a team that needed to win.

172
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: They looked very focused, and I think that we were

173
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: wandering out of the gate. Are we gonna get last

174
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: week's team on offense that had Joe Flacco throwing sixty

175
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: two passes everything that they said wouldn't happen this season,

176
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: or are we going to get the promise of what

177
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: Gary Kubiak said he'd bring. I think we got the

178
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: ladder full force. I mean Flacco came out eight of

179
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: eight on his first couple of drives they had these

180
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,839
Speaker 1: long marches. Only had three drives in the first even

181
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 1: plays twelve plays. I'm a dork. I really follow how

182
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: many drives each team has each half and each game.

183
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: I get into that it almost never happens that you

184
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: only have three drives. But it's because both teams were

185
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: moving the ball very well. But the Ravens were finishing

186
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: their drives and the Steelers had a lot of unforced errors.

187
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger ended drives with bad throws. They ended two

188
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: drives with fumbles. Uh, they had a lot of penalties

189
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 1: in the game. It was kind of an unforced error

190
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: type of game that they just handed the ball. Yeah,

191
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: They're the team that looked like they had been distracted

192
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: all week with off the field issues. Honestly, Like, you

193
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: charted Flacco and he didn't have what a single bad

194
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: throw in the first half. Yeah. I only charted five

195
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: bad throws for the whole game, which is pretty good

196
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 1: out of twenty nine. A lot of dinking, dunk, a

197
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,959
Speaker 1: lot of stuff between the numbers. To Dennis Pitta, to

198
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: Steve Smith, how fun is Steve Steve Smith? You know?

199
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: And Chris saw this early in the preseason and credit

200
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: to him. Steve Smith looks like a different guy to

201
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: me entirely. I think he's he's found the perfect offense

202
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: for him. He's dynamic, and he's perfect for Flacco. I mean,

203
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: Flacco already targeted in ten times tonight, double more than

204
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: anyone else on the Ravens. And that's what happened last

205
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 1: week too. TD loves him some, Steve Smith, I do,

206
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: and I just it's in regards to Chris Westland and

207
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: Steve Smith, who's I guess having a somewhat of a

208
00:10:54,559 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: comeback year. Yes, oh yeah, we're still thinking of you, Chris.

209
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 1: I mean, look, Chris doesn't own the patent on Steve

210
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: Smith love. We all love it. Who who doesn't love

211
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: to watch him play because he's so feisty and he

212
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 1: still has burst. He's thirty five years old. He's not

213
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: playing old man football. He's still got a young game.

214
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: And Joe Flacco had a funny joke in the post

215
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: game show that he no one else draws as many

216
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: face mass penalties because he's so short and he's so physical.

217
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: He gets a face mass penalty against him every week.

218
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: He's perfect for the Ravens. I I think This might

219
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: be for me, one of the best offseason pickups by

220
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 1: any team. I believe Steve Smith has always been a

221
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: raven in nowhere. Interesting, Yeah, I mean it's amazing. Tori

222
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: Smith only had ten yards in the game and it

223
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: didn't matter. He did draw a very big pass interference penalty,

224
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: which there should be a stat for that because that

225
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: was Tori Smith who who drew that. But Smith really

226
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: reminds me so much of an Kwan Bolden. I mean,

227
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 1: he basically is they lost an Bolden, they never should

228
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: have gotten rid of him, and they decided who can

229
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: who can replace an Quan Bolden with a little extra

230
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: juice actually in his legs, and that's Steve Smith. I'm

231
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 1: a little concerned from the Pittsburgh side. Now people can

232
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: shrug off what happened in the second half against Cleveland,

233
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: but that was twenty four unanswered points at one point.

234
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: Then tonight, they really they just they seem to me,

235
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 1: especially in past coverage, to be in a soft zone

236
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: or something where they're just sort of not putting the

237
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 1: heat on receivers and Baltimore was able to pick pick

238
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 1: away at them all night long, and Flacco on those

239
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 1: shorter passes kept getting yards after the say about Marcus

240
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 1: Gilbert the tackle for the Steelers when he gave up

241
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 1: the sack to Elvis Duma said, he put a He

242
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 1: dressed him in a multicolored clown suit because that's what

243
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: he did. Duberville was moving fast off the edge. It

244
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: shows you can't judge too much off one week. Because

245
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 1: I watched Dumerville last week. He was only on the

246
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,679
Speaker 1: field for half of the snaps and he didn't have

247
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: a hurry, he didn't have a hit, he was absent.

248
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: I thought, is this guy coming off the bench. It's

249
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: his career ending, And tonight he had two sacks. He

250
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: threw Gilbert on one play. It looked like he knew

251
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: the snap count or something. He was just jumping off

252
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: the edge, had another quarterback hit. He's he needs to

253
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: be big for them because they really don't have any

254
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: pass rushers other than him or Sucks. One last thing,

255
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: I think we noticed that when Antonio Brown went out

256
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: of the game for a bit. Uh he came back in.

257
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: But you asked if maybe that was their Jenga piece,

258
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: If big Ben isn't that that piece that he might

259
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: be because the offense suddenly went down, they only had

260
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 1: about three healthy receivers, but they just couldn't get anything done.

261
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: But even when he came back in that depleted secondary

262
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 1: in Baltimore, they did a pretty good job tonight. They

263
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: did a good job. They kept playing in front of them.

264
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 1: They don't want to give up big plays. I don't

265
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 1: think this was as big a blowout as it was

266
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: on the scoreboard. Six. The first half especially, was was close,

267
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: and the Steelers played like a lot of teams do

268
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: on the road on Thursday night. They played tired. It's tough,

269
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: three nights, three days rest, then you go on the road.

270
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: I have a hard time picking any road teams and

271
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: they can't survive Roethlisberger having to see game. And that's

272
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,199
Speaker 1: what they got. Well, you got Wesley and I off

273
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 1: to an O and one start. I forgot about that

274
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: Thursday night slum for those visiting teams, and I fell

275
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 1: for the Steelers. Hype my super Bowl team and they,

276
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: by the way, you forget about the Steelers as the

277
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,319
Speaker 1: team of a t l H. This did not This

278
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: is not a good look for them. I never really

279
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: fully embraced it. Maybe I did early, but they're they're

280
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: too much of a national team with too many Super

281
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: Bowl trophies. I'll let you bring that up with Chris.

282
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: I like, I like where you're going with that. All right,

283
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: I think that did see Dan in the past. Actually

284
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: he actually tweeted about that. And what did he say.

285
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: I think you pretty much debted the Steelers chances. Yeah. Wow,

286
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: Dd just going off the ropes right there and not

287
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: going about himself. I'll take it. I accept that one thing.

288
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: To the listeners, I just want to wait if you

289
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: do decide to keep listening. Dan actually is wonderful for

290
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: the rest of the show. We love our host. He's

291
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: not dull. He did a great job. Chris not so much,

292
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: but you gotta deal with the good and the bed.

293
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: Also a great performance by Dan's hair. And without any

294
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: further Ado, let send it back to you Dan. Great job,

295
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 1: Greg and both of you peons coaching analysis, I thought,

296
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: especially by Mark his point on the Ravens, especially on

297
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: point really well time drops by me though, Yeah, you

298
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: had really good job by everything t Greg sounded tired.

299
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: I thought I could actually hear Mark chugging out of

300
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: the cough medicine bottle during his segment though. Um, all right,

301
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: so let's move into the previews of Sunday's games, and

302
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: we start with the Miami Dolphins heading to Buffalo to

303
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: face the Bills. Miami coming off a big victory against

304
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: the Pats, the Bills coming off a really nice victory

305
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: against the Bears. So these are two AFC East teams

306
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: that perhaps they're throwing out some signs that they could

307
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: be sneaky this year and we can get behind them. Uh,

308
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: the question is is ej Manuel going to deliver another

309
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: night's performance. They're the home team you expect. I guess

310
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 1: that they would be the favorite here. How do you

311
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: guys see this plane out? I try not to underrate

312
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: the Bills at home because they're very good there. But

313
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: I really liked what I saw the Dolphins offense, and

314
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: I think they are running Chip Kelly's offense. They spread

315
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: the field, They take defenders out of the box, so

316
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: no Sean Marino has room to operate out of the

317
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,120
Speaker 1: shotgun and he's basically a spread running back right now.

318
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: This is a recipe for success. I like what the

319
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: Dolphins are doing. I think they have the edge here.

320
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: They had a hundred and nine one yards on the

321
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: ground last week. That's not something the Dolphins in recent

322
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: days are accustomed to. It is a completely new attack.

323
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace used all over the field. He looks interesting.

324
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: I know. Uh, Chris wesleyans big on him. This this

325
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: a f C East is not going to be what

326
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: it was in years past. It hasn't been good for

327
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 1: a while. You think it's gonna be good now. I

328
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: think that you guys have the Jets off a sudden

329
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: as a winning record. I think that maybe if New

330
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: England just comes down just a step, there's gonna be

331
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 1: some intrigue here at the end of the year. I

332
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: think if we see the Dolphins offense for form well again,

333
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start getting excited Mark about your boy Bill

334
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 1: as Or and we could then start to get excited

335
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: about the Domins if they can go on the road.

336
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 1: I could have got it excited about Laser when I

337
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: told you in like early June that this was gonna happen. Well,

338
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 1: you know, it's like, am I supposed to get excited

339
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 1: by Coltarla. I can't get excited about everything, and we

340
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: don't get everything right, but this one there there was

341
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 1: a lot to believe in here. Dan's not gonna respect

342
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,399
Speaker 1: somebody from the Chip Kelly coaching Tree. This reminds me,

343
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: by the way that throughout a sandwich proposition at the

344
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: end of the podcast that went over, you know, like

345
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: a wet fart where you said some team from the

346
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: a f C East is gonna make the playoffs or

347
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: two teams was a team not named of the New

348
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: England Pago. I'll take that one too. By the way,

349
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: no one took you up on that, and I'll take

350
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: that because I think both these teams are gonna be

351
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: mediocre in the long run. And I was surprised we

352
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: all took the Dolphins not to give it away here

353
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: because this seems like a coin flip type of game. Uh.

354
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: The Bills ran the ball really well last week. They

355
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: did a good job managing j Manuel. The questions like,

356
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: how long can you go just managing your quarterback, because

357
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 1: it's not if you watch that E J Manuel perform

358
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: last weeken do that and even the best throw he

359
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 1: made in the game, the biggest play a third down late.

360
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 1: It's like a fluttering ball that somehow gets there and

361
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 1: a month and I have to prepare for that game.

362
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: The Detroit Lions and Carolina Panthers two more teams that

363
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 1: started out with a win in Week one. The Lions

364
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: now travel to Carolina. Cam Newton will be back in

365
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: the lineup. Matthew Stafford coming off that amazing game. Megatron

366
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: looks healthy and back to the guy he was in

367
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: two thousand twelve. A lot of reasons to be excited

368
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 1: if you're a Lions fan, as I'm sure our boy

369
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: Kevin patra is. Uh. If the Panthers can hold off

370
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 1: the lines, that will tell us a lot about their defense.

371
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,120
Speaker 1: Tell us what you think, gentlemen, I'm disgusted by all

372
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: of you. Just last year the team of a t

373
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 1: L the Carolina Panthers. Last week they go out and

374
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: they win a game on the road in the division

375
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: with Derrick Anderson at quarterback. Now they're home and their

376
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,120
Speaker 1: favorite in this game. And I got a hero pick

377
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna collect on it because just because I

378
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: picked the Panthers, what what happened? A little loyal team?

379
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,360
Speaker 1: Also because what are the way our picks work out?

380
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 1: We're all able to see what we pick, and everyone

381
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 1: had there's done by six thirties seven at night. Greg

382
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: waited until late at night and came in and saw

383
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: that we had all picked the Lions and dialed up

384
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: the Panthers. Now he's trying to give us heat when

385
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: I that's not true. Well, it's factually accurate. You had not,

386
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: but I didn't know who you had picked. If I

387
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 1: had done that, I could have done for any game

388
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 1: by that logic. Don't buy that at all. When I've

389
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: broken up with girlfriends in the past and we've moved

390
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: on and it's been six months and she has now

391
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: seen someone else, I don't feel guilty for going out

392
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,640
Speaker 1: with another girl. Do you believe that the Lions are

393
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,919
Speaker 1: gonna be that big of a juggernaut? I mean they

394
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: what they did have perhaps the most impressive week one win.

395
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,919
Speaker 1: Does that change the way you see them already for

396
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: the whole season, or just because I thought they would

397
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: be that impressive. I predicted them to go to the playoffs.

398
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: I thought they had great personnel and offense. I thought

399
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 1: they were frisky on defense, and I thought we kind

400
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 1: of agreed early last season they were that team. They

401
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 1: kind of fell apart, But I think I think they

402
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 1: are a better team than the Panthers right now. They

403
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: do have an overload of offense, and there's so many

404
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: different people you can throw the ball too or handed

405
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: off too, and everyone's talking about Eric Ebron. That guy

406
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: didn't even do anything in the last game. If he

407
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,719
Speaker 1: gets good this all, this can be real tough matchup.

408
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: They were playing the Giants, though I'm not They're on

409
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: the road against one of the I think two best

410
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: defenses in football that looked outstanding last week, and the

411
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: offense looked a little better than I expect. I'm almost

412
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: worried that Cam Newton is in because I'm not sure

413
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: how healthy is what kind of Cam Newton are we

414
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: gonna see? And that this reason, certainly. I I thought

415
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: two things. I I one of those people that get

416
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: two wrapped up in a week one performance sometimes, and

417
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 1: I really liked the way the Lions looked. And then

418
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: Cam Newton, I don't know if he's ready yet. And

419
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: they didn't play that great. I guess Derrick Anderson was involved.

420
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 1: Sit Dereck Anderson. I thought they did play great. Really

421
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 1: for three quarters. Uh, they dominated as well as just

422
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 1: about any team, including the Lions. They let him back

423
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: in it was on the road, but I don't know. Uh,

424
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: maybe Dangela Williams doesn't play as much in this game,

425
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,640
Speaker 1: and they get Jonathan Stewart out there. He didn't really

426
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 1: look that good last week. Stewart broke some tackles right,

427
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: but didn't didn't really get many yards, didn't get enough carries.

428
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: By the way, you said, you mentioned you have a

429
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: hero pick. I thought they renamed that the handsas pick

430
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 1: after my three hero pick showing in week one. I

431
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: like that, Sessler. The past eighty seconds of self promotion

432
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: are now over moving Cessler likes it because he's in

433
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: first place right now, up on you by three games.

434
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 1: That doesn't matter. I got the glory picks. I'll take

435
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: the standing all right. We have another matchup here of

436
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: one or o teams. Interesting start to the schedule. The

437
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons, coming off that great win against the Saints

438
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: at home, now travel to Cincinnati to face the Ben Gals.

439
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: The Ben Gals who were dealing with perhap perhaps a

440
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: a J. Green not at full capacities, dealing with some

441
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: type of foot foot injury. But the Bengals and Falcons

442
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 1: two uh teams that are one or no. How do

443
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: we see this? What's Vont's perfect status? He hasn't practiced

444
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 1: as of our taping, and so it's not looking good.

445
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: He had a concussion last week. That's a big He

446
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: was the best player on the field for most of

447
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: the last week's game. Geo Bernard was pretty good too,

448
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: even though it didn't show up as much in the

449
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: box score. The thing I took watching that Bengals game

450
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 1: again was their offense didn't look like they're just figuring

451
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: it out. You know, the Giants are saying, oh, we're

452
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: just figuring out our offense. A lot of these that

453
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 1: were just figuring out. I mean, it looked ready to go,

454
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: didn't you think. I Andy Dalton looked pretty good in

455
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,959
Speaker 1: that game, had a good Andy Dalton game, and it

456
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: looked like it was a mid season form for them.

457
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 1: They were better when Tyler Eiffert was in the game,

458
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 1: and when he came out, they already lost Marvin Jones,

459
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: so they're not now they're down to Mohamed Sanu and A. J. Green,

460
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: and having gio Gio Bernard is such a big factor

461
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 1: in the passing game helps. I think, you know, Hugh

462
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 1: Jackson now he knew the team, so probably transition a

463
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: little smoother than a than a Giant situation, and that

464
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 1: that elevation of Jackson made sense and is an improvement

465
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: for the Bengals. We don't know as much about you

466
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 1: lose Mike Zimmer, that's tough, and you have to deal

467
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: with Matt Ryan and what the Falcons offense did last week.

468
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: That's what I want to see is is this Falcon's offense,

469
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: because I love the Saints defense was solid. This offense

470
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: may go out and do what you're talking about Chris

471
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,199
Speaker 1: Weston in terms of Matt Ryan's passing yardage. Yeah, I

472
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: love the Falcons offense. I think they're very good. But

473
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: the Bengals were eight no in the regular season at

474
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 1: home last year. The Radar Kevin Patrick was the only

475
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: member of the Around the NFL team to pick the Falcons,

476
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: so he has a hero pick on that one. I'd

477
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: be worried if I was a Falcons fans about the

478
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,919
Speaker 1: offensive line held up okay last week. Jake Matthews is

479
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: at this point not looking likely to play in this game.

480
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 1: Missed the couple they've obviously already short at tackle and

481
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: then on the other side of the ball. I mean

482
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: the way the Bengals closed out that game. Wallace Gilberry,

483
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: Carlos Dunlap, your boy a Manuel Lamire. You know they

484
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: lose people in free agency. It doesn't matter there's still

485
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,120
Speaker 1: throwing waves of pass rushers at you, and that could

486
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 1: be problems in Cincinnati. This is in a playoff games,

487
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: so they'll probably win. Could be to playoff teams though.

488
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: This is one of the only three I want to

489
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 1: know versus want to know games and it's pretty space

490
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: just named them all, didn't we just go right through? Alright? Well,

491
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 1: now we'll move on with two teams that lost in

492
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 1: Week one. The nolin in Saints travel to Cleveland to

493
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: face Mars Brown's. The Saints, like we just said, came

494
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,719
Speaker 1: off that wild game with the Falcons and came up

495
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,919
Speaker 1: on the losing end. The Browns have that nice comeback

496
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: against the Steelers in the second half that then fell short,

497
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 1: and now they meet in Cleveland. Brian Howyer back in

498
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,439
Speaker 1: against Drew Brees. Howyer Breese, who do you got? There

499
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,880
Speaker 1: are some injury issues here with the Browns. Jordan Cameron,

500
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 1: basically the best part of their passing game is hasn't

501
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 1: practiced yet this week and says he's feeling good. Says

502
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,479
Speaker 1: he's feeling good, but Pensants comments kind of sounded like

503
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: he was leaning against it, and Barkevious mingo is isn't

504
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 1: practicing yet either shoulder issues. It's tough for you, Mark

505
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 1: to watch your Super Bowl prediction. Saints kind of back

506
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,120
Speaker 1: in them this year versus your hometown team. I thought

507
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: you might get a little inventive and take the Browns,

508
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: but you did not. I think it was about three

509
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: or four years ago when I kept trying to take

510
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: these Browns games and these strange situations and just went like, oh,

511
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 1: in seven, I am over that they did. Here's the thing,

512
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're very schizophrenic last last week.

513
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:26,640
Speaker 1: Either you're the team that can come out and run

514
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: the ball the way they did in the second half

515
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: and they shut Pittsburgh's offense down for five out of

516
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 1: six drives ended in puns, or you're the team in

517
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,640
Speaker 1: the first half that looked like an absolute horror show

518
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: and it's not a good situation to have to deal with. Hi,

519
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,160
Speaker 1: here's your home open, or bring everyone in the stadium

520
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 1: and unveiled Drew Brees and the Saints going for about

521
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,400
Speaker 1: four d and sixty yards on this defense. I don't

522
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 1: like the matchup. The only way I could see the

523
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 1: only kind of game you can win is remember when

524
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 1: the Jets beat the Saints last year, where you keep

525
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: the only best defense, you keep Breeze and that offense

526
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: off the field, and if you can get the run

527
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,360
Speaker 1: game going, you chew up clock all game long. That's

528
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 1: a tough test. I don't think anyone picked the Browns no, no,

529
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 1: one's a week, but I will say that it wouldn't

530
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: have been an insane pick to do it. We know,

531
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 1: we know the Saints are a five hundred teams. That's

532
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 1: that's the Saints version of the Browns. Come on, this

533
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 1: is the Saints. We don't know what teams are yet.

534
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: That's what I think. Well, I think I do you

535
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: know one? We know one game and that's about it.

536
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: We don't know who these teams are. Were you impressed

537
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 1: at all that they unraveled twenty four points on Pittsburgh

538
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 1: last speak or did that not? There was nothing about

539
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: that that you saw at all. I when I watched that, Yeah,

540
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,400
Speaker 1: they did pretty well. The Steelers said that they didn't

541
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: handle the no huddle. Well, what I saw was the

542
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: running game was great and uh Hoyer was mostly effective

543
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 1: on play action. I don't know if you can count

544
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: on doing that two weeks in a row. You can't.

545
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:44,679
Speaker 1: You can't lose this game. If you're the Saints, if

546
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: there anywhere close to the team you guys think they are,

547
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: it's tough to start out. Oh and two, I know

548
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: they played pretty well last must win game on the

549
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 1: middle of September, the New England Patriots coming off a

550
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: grim loss, you know, just a really pitiful loss. Greg.

551
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: So the Miami Dolphins. UH now travel to Minnesota to

552
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 1: face a team of a t L candidate, the Vikings

553
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 1: coming off a blowout wind over the Rams. UH. Plenty

554
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: of reasons to get excited here. And you know what,

555
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: Matt Castle and Tom Brady are facing off against each other. Uh, Mark,

556
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: I think I saw a tweet or something you wrote

557
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,119
Speaker 1: where you thought you said that there was a self

558
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: destruct chip that was built into Matt Castle when he

559
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: left New England. If that's the case, the Patriots will win. Well.

560
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 1: It was actually in our picks right up to in

561
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 1: Power Pickwick. There are cell Power pick of the Week.

562
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:41,159
Speaker 1: You both took the Patriots. King Westling and UH sponsors

563
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: bring him send me your money. Sponsor talked to a

564
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 1: couple of people inside the Patriots organization that told me

565
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,120
Speaker 1: that before they shopped the Matt Castle to Kansas City.

566
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 1: They implanted a chip inside his head, which has been

567
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: not they'd not pulled the trigger on this yet, but

568
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 1: when they do at any point, he going, I just

569
00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: want to say. I mean, I've been honking about Matt

570
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 1: Castle all summer long, and right about now, you guys

571
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 1: who always make fun of me for it, you gotta

572
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 1: be thinking I might want to get in on this

573
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: Matt Castle van wagon. It's getting pretty exciting. So they

574
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: when they didn't pull the trigger on this chip when

575
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,439
Speaker 1: Matt Castle was benched for Brady Quinn, No, they're going

576
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: they haven't played, they haven't played, just that bad that

577
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: he got bench for Brady Quinn. The chip will there

578
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 1: will be no more Mad Castle. When answer your question,

579
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: I'm not jumping on board your Matt Castle. I see

580
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 1: what you're trying to do theirs And I was with you,

581
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: Greg and in preseason if Castle was a guy that

582
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: could bridge the gap and you don't have to force

583
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: Teddy in there. And he played well, that's all he is.

584
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: He ain't a franchise quarterback. But I expect them to

585
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: play well again. I think the Vikings are sneaky. We

586
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: thought the Patriots were better this year than the team

587
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 1: that went to the a f C Championship game. So

588
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: to me, this is a no brainer. You picked the

589
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 1: Patriots in this game. Yeah, I didn't think that we

590
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 1: all did because they're so good. Coming off a loss,

591
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 1: you have to kind of look at the season as

592
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: a whole, and it is a little hard to imagine

593
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: that the Patriots losing two in a row. You would

594
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 1: think they're gonna play their best this week, But I

595
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe their best is still gonna be closest.

596
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 1: Picking the way I did, really you wish he took

597
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 1: the Vikings. I kind of feel a little bit of

598
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 1: the same way. And uh, because for some reason, this

599
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: maybe this is the year that the Patriots start owned

600
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: two when everyone writes the obituaries and then they go

601
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 1: twelve and four. I mean, they they looked pretty good

602
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 1: for the first half of last game and then they

603
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: got totally wiped out. I think there's enough to believe

604
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: in there. I don't think there's any reason to change

605
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: our belief moving forward. The Arizona Cardinals, coming off that

606
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 1: comeback win on Monday Night against the Charges, now travel

607
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: to the Metal Ends to face the New York Giants,

608
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 1: who also played on Monday night and looked dreadful, the

609
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 1: offense not looking even close to ready. One interesting little

610
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: note that we did it around the NFL post on today,

611
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: Bruce arians Uh spoke out about Eli's struggles and we

612
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: one and said that he when he installed a new

613
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: offense with Arizona last year, it took Carson Palmer eight

614
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 1: weeks to get comfortable, and he said that's basically probably

615
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: the minimum with a veteran quarterback, when you have to

616
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 1: strip them down and start from scratch. So arians knows

617
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 1: the Giants are lost on offense. We all know it.

618
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: So the Giants don't have a chance at home, right?

619
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: I picked the Giants? Why Why wouldn't they have a chance.

620
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 1: Let's not make some big upset pick by the two

621
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 1: by the two of you, give me a break, listen,

622
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: Wes and I both picked the Giants. Yeah, only because

623
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 1: for you you picked the home team. It feels I

624
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 1: picked the Cardinals. So what's your Cardinals? But it's a

625
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 1: to me, it's a coin. Why are we advertising this

626
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: like so we've done something noble by picking the home team?

627
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: Wouldn't say that? I think if an there, If Arizona

628
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 1: loses that game to San Diego and the last minute

629
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: instead of wins it. A lot more people will be

630
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 1: picking the Giants this week, right. I think the Cardinals defense,

631
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: which now we know will be without John Abraham and

632
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: you guys talked about it on the last show. I

633
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be so much better at home than

634
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: it is on the road. And Carson Bomber worried me

635
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: a little bit last week. Uh, he made some big plays,

636
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: but you can't count on him making plays with his legs,

637
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 1: though he didn't because the five best plays he made

638
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: in the game included him running around. And I never

639
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: know are one in two in multi interception games Since

640
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: two thousand four of the last decade, no quarterbacks have

641
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: had more games with two or more picks. This could

642
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 1: be a wild one. So they're both first ballot Hall

643
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 1: of Famers from this season is really a campaign for

644
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: Eli Manning to knock himself out of the Hall of Fame.

645
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 1: And I'm going to enjoy it. And I don't see

646
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: how the Cardinals are even a finalist for the Team

647
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: of a t L If we think it's not an

648
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 1: upset if the Giants beat them, think the Giants stink.

649
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 1: It's a small upset. I think the Cardinals are good.

650
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 1: We picked them as a team of a t L

651
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: because I think they'll be fun to watch. And what

652
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 1: did they deliver in Week one? The most fun game

653
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: of the week. That was not that fourth quarter in

654
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: the top five games and definitely wasn't as fun as

655
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: the Falcon Saints. That's fair, but you just didn't like

656
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: it because you got the pick wrong. The car had

657
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 1: a lot John Brown that was one of the best

658
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: plays of the week. Was it not almost as good

659
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 1: as Marcus Wheaton's play? Michael Floyd. I mean, there's a

660
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,239
Speaker 1: lot of fun players to watch on this team, all right.

661
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: The Dallas Cowboys who looked terrible at home against the

662
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: forty Niners. Tony Romo looks very rusty. They now travel

663
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 1: to face uh Tennessee Titans, who who have Jake Lockery

664
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 1: quarterback and Sean Green and Dexter mccluster. A lot of

665
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: skill players on there to get excited about. I would

666
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: think Tony Romo is gonna play better in this game,

667
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 1: but we don't know. Maybe he's not healthy. They'll be

668
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: very interesting to see how the Cowboys bounced back after

669
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: that performance offensively. That's what I'm looking for. What about you, guys.

670
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to see if Verlando McClain can repeat

671
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 1: his effort. He's gonna shut down Sean Green people. You know,

672
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: you said that the defense didn't play well for the

673
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: cow and that's true, but didn't it didn't play well.

674
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: But the facts are the forty nine didn't score a

675
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: point after halftime, and they scored fourteen points directly off turnovers,

676
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: so they did as well as you could have possibly helped.

677
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: And they had a couple of players play really well,

678
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: surprisingly Rolando McClain flying all over the field and Jeremy

679
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: Minty with a really nice Rolando McClain was their best

680
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: defensive player. He really was. We kind of made fun

681
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: of him offseason. It's crazy. It's one of the most

682
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: surprising stories I can think of, Like you took that

683
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: defensive effort and you stuck it in the middle of

684
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: last year's absolute train off the side of a cliff.

685
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 1: It would have stood out as one of the better performances.

686
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 1: I watched the whole game, and I really didn't think

687
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: they played well. They didn't know. Overall, Colin Kaeperna kid

688
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: the fifth best passer rating of his career. I guess

689
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: all this. I mean, I think your bar is so

690
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 1: low that you're trying. We are something that we're not saying.

691
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 1: It's good in relative to the rest of the league.

692
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 1: But for what we're expecting from Dallas, it was less

693
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 1: of a disaster. I think their secondaries a bad game.

694
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: Their secondary is really bad. They're playing Brandon car so

695
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 1: much money and he is not effective at all. And

696
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 1: the Titans now have a pretty good wide receiver group

697
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: Kendall Wright, Justin Hunter is definitely making that leap, and

698
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 1: Nate Washington is still Nate Washington. That's actually a tough

699
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: group to deal, isn't what what's more disappointing, though, is

700
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: because we already expected Dallas to go out and what

701
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 1: to give thirty four points up one way or another.

702
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 1: The problem is banging they score seventeen or whatever it was,

703
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,879
Speaker 1: and it's like, if they can't go out and put

704
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: up thirty forty points a game, they're not gonna win

705
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: more than three games this season. That was the worst

706
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 1: half of football I've ever seen Tony Romo play. I

707
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: took the Cowboys in this game because I think everybody's

708
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 1: overreacting to one Tony Romo game. But he really was

709
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,439
Speaker 1: that bad. He missed throws, So was Tom Brady crazy bad?

710
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 1: He wasn't as bad as Tony Romo was the worst

711
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: quarterback in the league. Last week. Him and Nick Foles

712
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: were the two. Yeah, Mark, greg and myself all took

713
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 1: the Titans, Patra and West took the Cowboys. That's a

714
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: fun one. Moving forward. The Jacksonville Jaguars, who got off

715
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: to that great start in Week one against the Eagles

716
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 1: and then crumbled, head to Washington to face the Redskins,

717
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 1: who uh looked fairly dire on the road against the Texans.

718
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: So battle of two oh and one. Team's Robert Griffin

719
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: the third is a big guy to watch here, how

720
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: he comes back from what was kind of a tough

721
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: game for him despite the stats maybe not saying that.

722
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: And then we get on the other side, Chad Henny,

723
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: who might be under a little pressure here with Blake

724
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: Bortles sitting behind him. We should explain that just because

725
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 1: we all five agree on a game, it doesn't mean

726
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 1: that it's a mismatch, no, right. It often happens that

727
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 1: in coin flip games we just all tend to side

728
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 1: with one team and acknowledge it's a coin flip game.

729
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 1: And I think this is one of the situations we

730
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:46,839
Speaker 1: all went with the Redskins, right. If I had been

731
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: peeping at the picks ahead at the time, I'd flip

732
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 1: it over to the Jagson, which we suspect that you

733
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 1: sometimes do. That's happening. That's definitely happening. So what I mean,

734
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 1: what do you think do you think r G three?

735
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: What is RG three at this point? That? Do you

736
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: think he's gonna play well in this game? Er? Do

737
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 1: you think this is gonna be the continuation of more

738
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 1: struggles for this guy? And then you're gonna start hearing

739
00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins talk about October. You've heard of Steve Blast disease, right,

740
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,400
Speaker 1: For those of you who don't follow a baseball Steve

741
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: Blast was a Pirates pitcher who couldn't find whome played

742
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: anymore and his career was ruined. Happened to Ricky and

743
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 1: Kiel Chuck Nablock at second back. RG three might be

744
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,320
Speaker 1: the first person to have Steve Steve Blast disease with

745
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: his legs. He's just too afraid to run. He doesn't

746
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: trust his legs, he doesn't plant well, he doesn't his

747
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,399
Speaker 1: mechanics are off. He doesn't trust his legs to get

748
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: away from J. J. Watt, He doesn't trust his legs

749
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: to beat corners to the to the sideline anymore. To me,

750
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 1: he just plays. He plays like a guy who's not

751
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: natural anymore and is not confident in his legs. Throw

752
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: the ball down the field. He's got a great arm,

753
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: and they have great deep receivers. They went to Sean

754
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: Jackson and Pierre Garson into like mid career Brandon Stokely.

755
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 1: His coach is coaching like a coach who has no

756
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,360
Speaker 1: confidence in his quarterback. A Growden and Jordan Reed is

757
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: out of this game. That's one of r G three's

758
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 1: security blankets. So that won't make things easier. But we

759
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,240
Speaker 1: all picked the Redskins, so I guess we're not buying

760
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: into the Jaguars, despite their being offseason hype about them

761
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 1: about being much improved, not ready yet for prime time.

762
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: Part of the reason was, I don't think last week's

763
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 1: game against Philly, their first half that was solid, was

764
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,840
Speaker 1: about them. It was more about Nick Foles. They they

765
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 1: were free receivers going wide open all over the field.

766
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,399
Speaker 1: And Chad Henny is their quarterback and Chad Henny. They

767
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: got out to a seventeen to nothing lead, and he

768
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,839
Speaker 1: did he did nothing after halftime. As much as we're

769
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: killing r G three, he still has a lot of talent.

770
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 1: He didn't didn't make any bad throws in that game.

771
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: He just didn't try to make it feel better than

772
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,880
Speaker 1: Henny given Sunday. Wow. Is that a thing or is

773
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: that your thing? It's a new thing. Get excited, all right,

774
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: here's a this. I guess this is a tough spot

775
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 1: for a team of a t L nominee my nominee. Actually,

776
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,760
Speaker 1: the San Diego Chargers come up that lost the Cardinals

777
00:37:57,800 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: where they really let that game get away. They should

778
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 1: have won the game instead there oh and one, and

779
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 1: now they have the defending champions coming into their building.

780
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 1: If you want to be a team of a t L,

781
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,360
Speaker 1: you cannot start Owen two and you have the Seattle

782
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,800
Speaker 1: Seahawks ready to do it to him. Now here's the question,

783
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: Phil Rivers. We all love him in this room, not

784
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,399
Speaker 1: as much as I love any dog. According to make

785
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 1: my own uh my sandwich proposition, but are they going

786
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 1: to be able to hold off the Seahawks or the

787
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 1: Seahawks is too good right now? I was tempted to

788
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,320
Speaker 1: pick the Chargers in this game. I was too, and

789
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: then I just decided not to get too cute and

790
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,839
Speaker 1: just go with the better team. Same here. I'll take

791
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 1: Seattle sixteen weeks and I'll be upset three of them.

792
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,919
Speaker 1: You said no team of a t L could could

793
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 1: start Owen too, but the only team of a t

794
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 1: L in history started Owen too. So I wouldn't give

795
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 1: up on the Chargers because they were competitive last week.

796
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: Nothing about what they did surprise this If Antonio Gates

797
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: didn't drop six passes or whatever was going on with it.

798
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: And Philip Rivers dropped that snap from the shotgun that

799
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: knocked him out of field of a mental loss, that

800
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: was a bad loss. He had a bit of a

801
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: mental melt out. And in the fourth quarter. I was

802
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 1: surprised to see him take a delay a game in

803
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,800
Speaker 1: those sacks at the end of the game. Surprising for

804
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: the smartest player in the league. Maybe it's gonna take

805
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: a little while to, you know, get used to this

806
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,799
Speaker 1: Frank k offense. Their offense definitely wasn't humming like it

807
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:15,239
Speaker 1: was at the end of last year. They had three

808
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 1: first downs in the first twenty seven minutes of that

809
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 1: game and a tough start by the way for a

810
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 1: making the Laite nominate Ladarius Screen who didn't had two

811
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,800
Speaker 1: catches or twenty four yards and only actually had seven

812
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 1: routes where he really had a chance. They kept him

813
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 1: into block a lot. He is not a key part

814
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: of this offense right now, at least is a passing

815
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: on the passing side of it. I think it's the

816
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 1: best game of the week. You would you totally stun

817
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 1: you if the Chargers win this offense at the end. No,

818
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 1: it's it lines up in the sense that you know,

819
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: Seattle isn't quite the same team on the road and

820
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: the Chargers I have them as a playoff team. I

821
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 1: think that they're in the mold of it, went out

822
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 1: and beat the Broncos last year, and they're gonna be

823
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: a little bit desperate coming off. Nobody wants to start

824
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 1: and two and it's a home game. So yeah, I

825
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 1: think we underestimate that a little bit, that the more

826
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,439
Speaker 1: needy T team often plays better. And we all picked

827
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: the Seahawks and and you know, I guess that's because

828
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 1: it's hard to go against Seattle right now based on

829
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: what we've seen the last two times they've been on

830
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 1: the field them. Yeah, that maybe that I honestly feel

831
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 1: like I will not. Yeah, I'm similar to Mark. I

832
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: don't know if I'll pick every game for them, but

833
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: I probably won't pick against them until they lose at

834
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,319
Speaker 1: least one. Don't take cute in week two if you're

835
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:26,319
Speaker 1: afraid of imagine how Phil rivers field. This is like

836
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: the toughest match up potentially on their entire schedule until

837
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 1: they go to San Francisco in week thirteen. So we

838
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:37,839
Speaker 1: can picking him a lot. St. Louis Rams, who, let's

839
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,399
Speaker 1: face it, have a good chance to be terrible this year. Uh.

840
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: Coming off that terrible home loss to start the season

841
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: against the Vikings, now travel to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,

842
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 1: who had a bad loss in Week one against the

843
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:53,879
Speaker 1: Panthers at home. We all know that Sean Hill did

844
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 1: not play well and then he got injured. Austin Davis

845
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: is a guy now that we have to see what

846
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 1: he can do. He'll face it's a guy he's I

847
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,400
Speaker 1: think maybe I don't know who he is, to be

848
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,120
Speaker 1: honest with you, He'll face off against Josh McCown, who

849
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: had really a bad game in his Bucks debut came

850
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 1: on strong light in the fourth quarter, but on balance,

851
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 1: very disappointing start. We don't know what's going on with

852
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: Doug Martin, if he's injured, if he's losing snaps to

853
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: Bobby Rainey. There's a lot of stuff right now with

854
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 1: the Bucks that it's hard to get a gauge on.

855
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: So this game will be interesting. That's my cell of

856
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:26,279
Speaker 1: the game. Anyway, that's the best I could do, and

857
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting by you mean it's the worst game.

858
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,919
Speaker 1: This is the game you don't want to see on

859
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,839
Speaker 1: your schedule when I send out our assignments this week.

860
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: It can be the bastard step child that you just

861
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 1: kind of ignore while you watch the other game. This

862
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 1: is the game that both of these teams, after what

863
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: happened to them in Week one, looked at the schedule

864
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 1: and they were both thinking, oh yeah, that's who we

865
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:47,879
Speaker 1: get to play in week two because we got a chance.

866
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: One of these teams is gonna be one and one

867
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 1: and they'll be fine. I don't like it's Tampa Bay defense,

868
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,799
Speaker 1: which is it's just talent there. I don't think they're

869
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,240
Speaker 1: a bad defense on any level up against a Brian

870
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: Schottenheimer Vanilla, a paint by numbers offense that turns players

871
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 1: like Tavon Austin into nobody's This is going Tampa's way.

872
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: I picked the Bucks because look, Rams, you are offensive

873
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: to watch already. I mean, your putred. There's no excuse

874
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: you should have drafted a quarterback for the last two

875
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: or three years. It's your fault that you don't have

876
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 1: anybody to put behind Sam Bradford because you banked on

877
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 1: mediocrity for years and years, and this is what you have.

878
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:34,439
Speaker 1: Sub mediocre. M not their fault that Chris Long is out,

879
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 1: but it certainly hurts. Yeah, And I'm not going to

880
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: defend Brian Schottenheimer because he was when he was at

881
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,719
Speaker 1: the Jets, he was very frustrating. But I will say

882
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: that he's had the last five years, Mark Sanchez, uh,

883
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,399
Speaker 1: Sam Bradford and Sam Bradford's backups to work with. There's

884
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 1: not many Cordsory is a top overall draft pick in

885
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 1: theory is the key that I would look at this

886
00:42:56,239 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 1: Sam brad Literally, Sam Bradford has had Marty has had

887
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 1: Brian Schottenheimer to work with. That's the problem. And Pat Schermer,

888
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:11,280
Speaker 1: like Brian Schottenheimer. Here's the thing. After everything that happened

889
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: last year with this team, they come out in the

890
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: preseason and in Week one, is there have they done

891
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: anything to improve or grow more creative at all? Well,

892
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 1: they're now using Tavon Austin On runs up the middle

893
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: between the tackles. If you watched their tape sixteen weeks ago,

894
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: you got it noticed that they were. I saw him

895
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 1: going in between the tack and like, oh, he's gonna

896
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 1: get hurt. The Kansas City Chiefs, coming off a bad

897
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,879
Speaker 1: loss in Week one, travel to Denver now to face

898
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 1: the Broncos. And the Broncos, who you know, didn't quite

899
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 1: look dominant. I would say against the Colts, kind of

900
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 1: let the the second half get let the game get close.

901
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,239
Speaker 1: But you have to think that the Broncos a heavy

902
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: favorite here. We all picked them to win. The Chiefs

903
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 1: might not be very good this year. Your thoughts, Shelman,

904
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 1: we all picked the Bucks by the way to right.

905
00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:01,399
Speaker 1: Did you say that, yeah, yeah, don't want to get

906
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 1: on this is the game I don't want. This is

907
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,719
Speaker 1: gonna be an old fashioned beat down. I would sum

908
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,520
Speaker 1: up this matchup in this fashion. A Chiefs Chiefs fan

909
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 1: tweeted me and asked the following question of all of

910
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 1: our offensive lineman who played so poorly in Week one?

911
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 1: Who played the absolute worst? So I know who to

912
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 1: bench when Jeff Allen comes back. They're making the decisions

913
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,239
Speaker 1: on who to have been the fans? Are you? They

914
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 1: want to know who should be benched because the entire

915
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 1: offensive line played poorly. Darrell Casey and Derek Morgan just

916
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,839
Speaker 1: ate them up. I think the Broncos defense is gonna

917
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:36,839
Speaker 1: be the story after this because if they're as good

918
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,319
Speaker 1: as we think they are, Von Miller is gonna get

919
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,240
Speaker 1: off to Marcus Where is gonna get off Molik Jackson.

920
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 1: Everyone will have a fun time and everyone be Oh,

921
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,399
Speaker 1: this new Broncos defense they really are a lot better

922
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,360
Speaker 1: because they showed flashes last week that they could be

923
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 1: pretty good. I'll throw in one thing because I find

924
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 1: this to be a real thing when teams kind of

925
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: look past one opponent when there's something huge on the horizon.

926
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 1: The Broncos are playing the Sea Hawks in Week three,

927
00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 1: you know in the Seahawks might end up being closer.

928
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 1: I'm just saying sometimes it works out that way. I

929
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 1: don't know if it's actually there's anything behind. I would

930
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: buy into that if they were playing at Arrowhead. DJ

931
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:18,239
Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah, who put together another beautiful podcast this week.

932
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 1: Everyone listen to move the sticks. It's okay, it was

933
00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: really good this morning. But our I mean the go

934
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,800
Speaker 1: get go, get your lunch. I mean, that's an award winner.

935
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:30,799
Speaker 1: As I told, as I told d J. You know,

936
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 1: although I wish him the best of this podcast, he's

937
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 1: now the enemy that will be treated as such. You know, well,

938
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,839
Speaker 1: I'm still going to use his information, which was that

939
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 1: he's been hitting this all off season, that the chief

940
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: secondary is sneakily the worst in the league or right

941
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,239
Speaker 1: there with their quarterbacks. They released everybody. So those cornerbacks

942
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 1: going up against Denver even even not at forget it.

943
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,640
Speaker 1: The New York Jets, coming off a you know win

944
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 1: against the Oakland Raiders, now travel to lambeau Field, where

945
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: they'll have to the secondary, which kind of got the

946
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 1: week off against the Raiders, now will not have the

947
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 1: week off. Aaron Rodgers and his whole gang of merry

948
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 1: men will be there. Eddie Lacy practiced on Thursday and

949
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 1: it looks like he's getting cleared and we'll be back

950
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 1: from his concussion, so the Packers will be at full power.

951
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,360
Speaker 1: Of course, Packers coming off a bad loss UH against

952
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 1: Seattle on Thursday night, so last Thursday night, so a

953
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,799
Speaker 1: lot of things are stacked against my Jets here. So

954
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 1: I I don't see a game that's gonna be competitive.

955
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 1: I think the Packers are going to really have their

956
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 1: way here and score a lot of points. Thirty eight

957
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,719
Speaker 1: seventeen something like that. Did you say, what's going on

958
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 1: with Brian Balaga? No? Well, I don't know if they're

959
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 1: gonna be a full power because if you have Derek

960
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 1: Sharade starting at right tackle, that lack of ed rushing

961
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 1: for the for the Jets won't even matter. It matters.

962
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,840
Speaker 1: It didn't even show up last week against the Raiders

963
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,720
Speaker 1: in terms of one on one winning matchup. That stuck

964
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:57,040
Speaker 1: out to me against Oakland. But I'm surprised that you

965
00:46:57,040 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 1: have no faith. I think that maybe playing the Raiders

966
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 1: in week one is inflated people's feelings on the Jets

967
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,839
Speaker 1: a little too much, and so I need to see

968
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,920
Speaker 1: them put up a good effort against the great passing team.

969
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 1: I just need to see it, and if they do it,

970
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:13,080
Speaker 1: then I'll then I'll be a little more in on

971
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 1: this team thinking, oh, maybe they can get to nine wins.

972
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:16,799
Speaker 1: Let's see, they don't have to win this week for

973
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: me to be excited. Two hundred plus yards rushing last week.

974
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: They can run the ball. It's a good thing for them. Now,

975
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 1: that's one way to That's not that different than that

976
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 1: Saint scheme we talked before. You want to keep Green

977
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:29,480
Speaker 1: Bay off the field. If they can run the ball

978
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 1: on the Packers, they will stay in this thing. I

979
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:35,280
Speaker 1: like to you use the word inflated because on last

980
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 1: podcast purposely filled up Jets heads with helium so we

981
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,720
Speaker 1: could beat so we could deflate them. After this lost

982
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:45,400
Speaker 1: in Green Bed should be excited. Chris Johnson is breaking

983
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:48,720
Speaker 1: tackles and running north south. Chris Ivory is looking good.

984
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 1: They went over four hundred yards for only the fourth

985
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 1: time in the last three years. So that was a

986
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:55,719
Speaker 1: really nice game they had last week. And Gino Smith

987
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 1: did a lot of great things. I'm buying into Gino Smith.

988
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 1: My whole goal for the Jet season is not a

989
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 1: super Bowl, but for Westling to write a retraction on

990
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,480
Speaker 1: his running back rankings, get Chris Johnson in there, get

991
00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 1: Chris Irey in there. One to bang one to see

992
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: this should provide hope for you, Mark, because you guys

993
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:17,839
Speaker 1: always think that west just hates your teams. I don't

994
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 1: think that he has some sort of bias against your teams.

995
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 1: But now that the Jets are turned in a corner

996
00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 1: and they're actually looking like a team, that's where supporting.

997
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 1: He's supporting. You've cracked the code. I love boring teams. Okay,

998
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,840
Speaker 1: by the way, and your teams are boring. I'm sorry.

999
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:35,319
Speaker 1: Let me just let me say this, Well, they didn't

1000
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 1: look too boring a week one credit. Let's say, let's

1001
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 1: just say let's go into Manic Pixie dreamland and we

1002
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:44,440
Speaker 1: will say the Jets beat the Packers and Lambeau in

1003
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,680
Speaker 1: Chris Westling's mind, if I inevitably then I'm on Sunday

1004
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 1: Night Show. Bring up the Jets as a team of

1005
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,399
Speaker 1: a t L nominee, Matthew Mulligan, get the Jets back

1006
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 1: in the mix. Would you shoot that down out of hand? No?

1007
00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 1: I would. I would. Actually, I would support the concept

1008
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:00,759
Speaker 1: of the Jet to be in the team of at

1009
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 1: they beat Green Bay as my number one team. I

1010
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 1: would need some convincing depends what fashion they do it.

1011
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,959
Speaker 1: But if they if Chris Johnson and Chris Ivory run

1012
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 1: run like they did, like an impressive, like pounding win

1013
00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 1: where Chris Johnson is running people over. I can get

1014
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 1: behind that. The Houston Texans, without Jadavian Clowney, who was

1015
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: out four to six weeks with that knee injury, travel

1016
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 1: to Oakland to face the putrid Raiders. Uh, the Raiders

1017
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 1: are not looking good at all. Obviously we don't think

1018
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:32,879
Speaker 1: there ain't gonna be any good, but the Texans could

1019
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,359
Speaker 1: be sneaky and there. You know, it's a road game

1020
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:37,920
Speaker 1: for a team that lost fourteen straight last year, but

1021
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: this is a new season. They gotta win. They got

1022
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:43,320
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick looking decent in a week one, Aaron Foster

1023
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,480
Speaker 1: looks like his old self. You have Andre hop Johnson

1024
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,240
Speaker 1: doing his thing, DeAndre Hopkins making a nice touchdown catch.

1025
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 1: J J. Watt lording over everything. I am in on

1026
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 1: the Texans as a sneaky team this year. You guys,

1027
00:49:56,600 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 1: DJ Swaringer, DJ Sweringer, another guy, Brooks Reid was in

1028
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 1: the backfield all over that game. Mark is shaking his

1029
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 1: head with well, no, no, I'm not discussed. Just to

1030
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:10,359
Speaker 1: talk about maybe we're over inflating in an organization after

1031
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:13,320
Speaker 1: one week of play, I am not sold on the Texans.

1032
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,959
Speaker 1: I think the Texans defense is gonna be real this year.

1033
00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 1: I don't know about The defense has been real to

1034
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:20,319
Speaker 1: out the last three years, no question about it, and

1035
00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:21,680
Speaker 1: they have a lot of those same parts. I don't

1036
00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:24,000
Speaker 1: have a problem with that. Cushing's back the other You know,

1037
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 1: Romeo Cornell is an underrated coordinator. He did that with

1038
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,279
Speaker 1: the Chiefs too, He got them to play tough. But

1039
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,680
Speaker 1: you're telling me that this offense, with this quarterback situation

1040
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:35,319
Speaker 1: is gonna be a winning record at the end of

1041
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:36,799
Speaker 1: the year. I don't think. I think they're gonna flirt

1042
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 1: with Yeah. I mean, Ryan Fitzpatrick ken certainly has the

1043
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 1: potential to sink them completely, but there's some good talent

1044
00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:46,719
Speaker 1: on that around him. And if Arion Foster is back

1045
00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 1: to his old self and he really did look like

1046
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 1: Aaron Foster, that's going to cover up a lot of

1047
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 1: bad marks pock marks, Mark and Greg. I have a

1048
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:02,400
Speaker 1: question for you, guys, bro Romeo Cornell has coordinated for

1049
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: your teams. Does he blitz a lot? Is that something

1050
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 1: that he is in his repertoire back when he was

1051
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:11,640
Speaker 1: on the Patriots. He did, but that was when they

1052
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 1: had a ultra veteran team that was allowed to be

1053
00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: aggressive with Cleveland when they were He was there before

1054
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:19,640
Speaker 1: he was their head coach. He was there as their

1055
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:23,080
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator under Chris Palmer, ran the Alien defense, the

1056
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,759
Speaker 1: UFO defense. Remember that they would just take they were

1057
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 1: such a bad team. They would take six or seven

1058
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 1: players and just run them around pre snap in circles

1059
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 1: and no one knew where anyone was coming from. So yes,

1060
00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 1: I asked that because Rex Ryan blitz Derek Car seventeen

1061
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,440
Speaker 1: times on thirty four dropbacks and car everage two point

1062
00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 1: three yards per attempt. It was terrible last week, by

1063
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:45,800
Speaker 1: the way, that didn't get talked about. He had ninety

1064
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:49,160
Speaker 1: two yards and part of it was the game plan. No,

1065
00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 1: but he didn't look ready, He couldn't handle pressure, and

1066
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 1: he missed a lot of things. Well, if you googled

1067
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 1: Tony Khan and Derek Carr Jaguar statusmeister Tony Khan, you'll

1068
00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:01,279
Speaker 1: read this but real that's awesome. You will read that

1069
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 1: a lot of people worried about Derek Car facing a

1070
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:05,960
Speaker 1: blitz coming out of college. I know, we gotta move on,

1071
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:08,400
Speaker 1: but The best friend for the Texans this year is

1072
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,839
Speaker 1: the schedule, and that's why they can be in Look

1073
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 1: at these cream pops Oakland Giants, Buffalo Dallas coming up.

1074
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,280
Speaker 1: I mean Oakland is a trap game. You can smell

1075
00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:22,840
Speaker 1: four and one, three and two Tomato U sandwich proposition

1076
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:29,360
Speaker 1: mark eight wins for the Texans and no Barrelel lefts alright.

1077
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 1: Moving on, By the way, we all picked the Texans

1078
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 1: to move to tun On on the season. Chicago Bears

1079
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:37,960
Speaker 1: head to San Francisco to pay face the forty Niners

1080
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,880
Speaker 1: and the forty Niners opening of their new stadium. Bears

1081
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,200
Speaker 1: had that tough loss to the Bills. They're not not

1082
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 1: a good sign for them at all. The Niners offense

1083
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 1: looked alive, at least in the first half half against

1084
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,279
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. So now Jay Cutler versus Colin Kaepernick a

1085
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:54,359
Speaker 1: nice little matchup there. What do you think us? I

1086
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,000
Speaker 1: think Greg's got a little hero pick action on a

1087
00:52:57,040 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 1: team where Brandon Marshall hasn't practiced and now Sean Jeffrey

1088
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,560
Speaker 1: went down with a hamstring injury last game. Wouldn't be

1089
00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:06,640
Speaker 1: feel too unconfident about that hero pick on the road

1090
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:10,520
Speaker 1: in San Francisco. I don't really feel too confident in it,

1091
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:12,440
Speaker 1: to be honest. It was just kind of a feeling

1092
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:14,759
Speaker 1: I had. And you you look at the cornerbacks for

1093
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:18,279
Speaker 1: the forty niners. They lost both their starters last week.

1094
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 1: It sounds like they're gonna be out again. That we

1095
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,359
Speaker 1: already know about all the injuries and suspensions it's going

1096
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,160
Speaker 1: on defensive side. You just feel like, don't we believe

1097
00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:29,640
Speaker 1: in this Bears offense a little bit? You don't. Jay

1098
00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 1: Cutler made three of the five worst decisions in the

1099
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:36,240
Speaker 1: NFL last week. Not a good game for j Coulor. Finally,

1100
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:41,439
Speaker 1: Monday night football, the Philadelphia Eagles traveled to Indianapolis Cults

1101
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,440
Speaker 1: get another primetime game start season. They faced the Cults.

1102
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 1: The Cults uh comeback fell short against the Broncos. The

1103
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,839
Speaker 1: Eagles started terribly and then beat the Jags, but upon

1104
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,600
Speaker 1: closer film study, Nick Foles did not look well at all,

1105
00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:57,600
Speaker 1: despite his numbers not being bad. At the end of

1106
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,920
Speaker 1: the day, Colts gotta need this one at home, get

1107
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:02,799
Speaker 1: get back, get on the winning column. Let's are they

1108
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 1: gonna take care of business? I took the Cult, I

1109
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,320
Speaker 1: took the coult Andrew Luckys tannan O coming off losses.

1110
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess streaks are made to be broken,

1111
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,160
Speaker 1: but that's a pretty good streak. I went Eagles. I

1112
00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,880
Speaker 1: just feel like last season I spent all year betting

1113
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:22,160
Speaker 1: against chip Kelly kept topping me over and over. I'm

1114
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,319
Speaker 1: just gonna give him the opportunity right here to let's

1115
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 1: correct this. I took the Eagles as well, and it

1116
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,520
Speaker 1: pains me because I don't like to buy into the

1117
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:32,919
Speaker 1: chip Kelly genius factory and take a tour around there.

1118
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:37,880
Speaker 1: But I will say fraud. I will say that, Uh stop,

1119
00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:40,840
Speaker 1: you know, I think, what, how is he a fraud?

1120
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:44,440
Speaker 1: You're just playing it up? Give me a break. I

1121
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 1: didn't like the way the Colts look This is more

1122
00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:47,680
Speaker 1: about it. I didn't like the way the Colts looked

1123
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,520
Speaker 1: on Sunday. I know they got back in the game,

1124
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 1: but the defense didn't look great to me. And you know,

1125
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: not having Robert Mathis, he was gonna be suspended for

1126
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:56,879
Speaker 1: this game anyway, and now he's out for the year

1127
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:58,800
Speaker 1: at the torn achilles. I don't know what kind of

1128
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,040
Speaker 1: pass rush they're gonna get. That's gonna give Nick Foles

1129
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:03,319
Speaker 1: some time. I think falls will play better and the

1130
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:06,080
Speaker 1: Eagles will win the game. Well, they're the Eagles are

1131
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 1: missing another two offensive lineman, and I think they might

1132
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:13,319
Speaker 1: have a quarterback problem. Nick Foles didn't look good in

1133
00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:15,919
Speaker 1: the preseason, and he didn't just look bad last week,

1134
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 1: and he looked lost, He looked he was the worst.

1135
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 1: I thought he was the worst quarterback in the NFL,

1136
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:23,920
Speaker 1: and it was. It was yes, and he wasn't better.

1137
00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:25,759
Speaker 1: He wasn't much better in the second half. They won

1138
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 1: that game because of defensive plays and dump offs and

1139
00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:31,920
Speaker 1: running plays and the coverage breakdown on Jerey mcmacklin. The

1140
00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:34,120
Speaker 1: only thing that I'm worried about is that Chip Kelly

1141
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 1: is so much of a genius that he's created the

1142
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 1: quarterback truth offense. That was my favorite part of your

1143
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,839
Speaker 1: QB and dex. There's a lot of jealous quarterbacks around

1144
00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 1: the league that wished they could be playing in where

1145
00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:51,319
Speaker 1: you spread the field. It's a run heavy scheme, defenses

1146
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:54,600
Speaker 1: are all spread out. You use They used play action

1147
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:58,200
Speaker 1: pass fifty of the time. So there's all I mean

1148
00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:02,320
Speaker 1: in McCoy is making defenses. There's always receivers running wide

1149
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:07,560
Speaker 1: open in that offense. Folds was having an epic historical

1150
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:12,320
Speaker 1: mental meltdown. I'm par with like that guy who and

1151
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:14,479
Speaker 1: I'm going way out back here, And I was gonna

1152
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 1: say in the British Open where he was just stuck

1153
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 1: in the water for a while, that was Nick Foles

1154
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:21,040
Speaker 1: last week. He was just frozen as he watched three

1155
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,719
Speaker 1: receivers running wide open down the field and he didn't

1156
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:26,439
Speaker 1: know what to do, and they still wont. If Chip

1157
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 1: Kelly truly has has perfected the what is it, what

1158
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,080
Speaker 1: did you call it? Quarterback proof quarterback proof offense? Why

1159
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:35,439
Speaker 1: don't they trade with the Browns? Get Spencer Landing their

1160
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:37,839
Speaker 1: punter in the building, put him at quarterback and see

1161
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 1: how they do. If he is such a genius they

1162
00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:46,880
Speaker 1: might make Browns aren't trading Spencer Landing away? He can

1163
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 1: take a kick, he can He's tough, all right. And

1164
00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:52,719
Speaker 1: that's it. Those are all the games. So we will

1165
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:56,399
Speaker 1: be back on Sunday night, as we are every week

1166
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: during the NFL season, to recap all of these games

1167
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 1: and see how we were all exactly right, or if

1168
00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:03,879
Speaker 1: we weren't right. We won't talk about it as much.

1169
00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:07,279
Speaker 1: We'll just admit what we're doing correctly exactly. That's how

1170
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:11,120
Speaker 1: that's how we succeed yes, in the professional sports business.

1171
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:13,360
Speaker 1: That's it for today's show. We'll be back. This is
