Speaker 1: wise guys pay attention. I am Chad Milman. I am

Speaker 1: BFF professional better Simon Hunter. Hello, Simon, Hello Chad Simon.

7
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: I'm laughing at our intro because, boy, we did not

8
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 1: do any of the things that we talked about in

9
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: our intro this weekend. This is our wild card weekend

10
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 1: review with a little bit of a preview of the

11
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: Steelers and Texans game. We're going to be back in

12
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 1: eighteen hours to preview the entire divisional round slate, so

13
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: we will sort of identify any games, sides, totals that

14
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: are moving, but we're not going to go too deep

15
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: on that. At the end of the show, boy sign

16
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: and like, if I could describe our first week in

17
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: a playoff betting as a team that we thought was

18
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: doing well at the end of the season and then

19
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: got their asses kicked in the playoffs, who would that

20
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: be right now? I mean.

21
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 2: It was.

22
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: It was ball busting.

23
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, someone here is excited to tune in to hear

24
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 2: me just a beaten down man, beaten down. This is

25
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 2: gonna be a big Chad show. Chad, do you want

26
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 2: to talk about your wife and kids? Spend thirty minutes,

27
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 2: tell as many stories as you want. This is a

28
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 2: bad show. I'm a defeated man, so I'm excited to

29
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 2: get this show over with and just move on to

30
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 2: next week.

31
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: I will say I was downstairs and walking up and

32
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, I feel like I'm I'm going in for

33
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: the tongue lashing that I would get from like a

34
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: boss if I did a bad job, or my parents,

35
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: like if I screwed up something like my mom is

36
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: actually calling me right now. She's probably just pissed about

37
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: how badly I did this weekend. It's fair to say

38
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: that our weekend was like a cross between Matt Lafloor's

39
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: second half brain Freeze, the Eagles second half in competence,

40
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: the Chargers just deciding their only option was sacrificing Justin Herbert,

41
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: and none of that was good enough. It was so

42
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: bad that, despite the Bears, despite the Hoosiers, I went

43
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 1: to bed sad on Sunday night. It was so frustrating

44
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,399
Speaker 1: on Sunday afternoon. At one point, I was just staring

45
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 1: into the depths of the TV as another touchdown was

46
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: scored in the Eagles Niners game, and my wife couldn't

47
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: make fun of me. That's how bad it was in

48
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: the contest. We are sitting at one in three, heading

49
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: into our fifth and final pick of the Steelers plus

50
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: three and a half. Simon, as you noticed, as you said,

51
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: as you intimated, we were wrong on just about every total.

52
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: We were wrong on just about every side. The only

53
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: underdog who hasn't covered so far in the entire playoffs

54
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,679
Speaker 1: is the one we actually picked in the contest, Los

55
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: Angeles Chargers. This is how bad it was, Simon. You said,

56
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: I could talk. I'm taking advantage of your pa, your depression.

57
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: I was emailing with my book editor this morning. He

58
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: mentioned that he's five to zero in the contest and

59
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: almost in the top fifty, and I was surprised he

60
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: didn't say, oh, by the way, you did so badly,

61
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: I'm canceling your contract like you were. Just it's a

62
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: rough weekend.

63
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, good weekend, though, if you blindly bet the trends.

64
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 2: We talked about dogs four and one unders, Where do

65
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: they go? Three and two heading into tonight's game, so

66
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,799
Speaker 2: we overthink it like we always do, and yeah, just

67
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 2: just a brutal run. But yeah, again, we're gonna dive

68
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 2: in all these different games. I think it's a funny

69
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 2: week where we talk all the time playoffs. It's all chaos,

70
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 2: it's a lot of toss ups. It was definitely a

71
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 2: weekend decided by special teams. I mean, we're gonna go

72
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 2: through these games. There's plenty of these games here that

73
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 2: the kickers really decided a lot of these outcomes. So

74
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 2: I saw the best two I saw was something about

75
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 2: there was an interfere with Matt Lafleur spending the less

76
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: time with his family and how he's like working till

77
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 2: one am in May, and nobody was like, hey, la, floor,

78
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 2: just go home. It does not matter if you're staying

79
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 2: in the building until one am in May, you're gonna

80
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 2: lose because you don't have a kicker. And that's how

81
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 2: I feel about a lot of these teams. You put

82
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 2: so much work in and if you don't have the

83
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,239
Speaker 2: right special teams, it don't matter. Yeah, pretty pretty brutal

84
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 2: for us to start this weekend one and four in

85
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 2: the contest.

86
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: One in three. We got a game tonight. Our final

87
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: five were the Rams minus ten and a half. Nope,

88
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: Green Bay and minus two and a half. Nope, San

89
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 1: Francisco Philadelphia under forty four and a half. We did

90
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: win that one, I believe. Yeah, the La Chargers plus

91
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: three and a half. Negativo Pittsburgh plus three and a half. Tonight,

92
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: our last ones in where the Rams and Packers did

93
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: not matter. The last ones out with the totals of

94
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 1: those two games did not matter. We did love the

95
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 1: Chargers Pats under two cash by about four touchdowns, but

96
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: that never made it into a contest conversation. Wild card

97
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: unders have hit at a sixty percent clip since twenty ten.

98
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: All games were outdoors. Reminder, tonight's game with the Steelers

99
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: as outdoors, that line did move down from thirty nine

100
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 1: and a half. I think it's hold in about thirty

101
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: eight and a half. But hopefully people bet it because

102
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 1: we did talk about earlier in the week, or maybe

103
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: your favorite at this point. We wouldn't, you know, we

104
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: wouldn't blame you Los Angeles Rams minus ten and a

105
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: half of Carolina. You tried to warm me brother. I

106
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 1: made us put this one in. I own it. Shame

107
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: on me. The gods gave us a chance to enjoy

108
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 1: another bed in the Panthers, and I freaking blew it.

109
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: I was checking Twitter because when you're in pain, and

110
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: that's the best thing to do, and someone tweeted Chad

111
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 1: Simon tried to warn you a thousand different ways, but

112
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: I got to tell you it started exactly like we hoped.

113
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: You know, the Rams square early off of the two

114
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 1: paths or miss cues. But this is what's going on.

115
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: Like the disastrous last ninety seconds of the Rams, I

116
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 1: think is indicative of something else, which is we saw

117
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: a few times yesterday teams go forward and fourth down

118
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 1: in their own like in the five yard line or

119
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: left the opponent, and when they don't convert, it kills

120
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 1: their momentum. And this is That was the turning point

121
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: for the game for the Rams. That was it. After that,

122
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: it was like a battle, one battle after another.

123
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just hated this game as a week went along.

124
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,679
Speaker 2: And you know, the big theory for me, the big thought,

125
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 2: I guess would be just all the stats information we

126
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 2: had about how basically, you know, these big bad wolves

127
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 2: during the regular season when it comes to playoff time,

128
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 2: it just it's always close games, and ten and a

129
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 2: half is a ton of points to cover in a

130
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 2: playoff game. And again, I don't hate the bet, but

131
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 2: all the other outside stuff freaked me out. And the

132
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 2: biggest one was just going to be will the refs

133
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: make these games close? And again I have tons of

134
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 2: opinions on the refs. People know these things, but this

135
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 2: game really was the ref to Carolina it. I mean,

136
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 2: they kept you know, I think it was a third

137
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 2: and three. They called a passer France at the end zone,

138
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 2: put the ball in the one, and you know, Bray

139
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 2: seongny was kind of puttering a little bit midway through

140
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 2: the second third quarter, and you know it took a

141
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 2: deep shot. Wasn't even PI they called it anyway, and

142
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 2: they kind of spark something to me. He just you know,

143
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 2: Bryce Seng, we've seen it when he gets into a

144
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: little bit of a rhythm. He's a really talented quarterback.

145
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 2: So yeah, Panthers fans, I'd be really excited. It looks

146
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: like you have a guy that in the biggest moment,

147
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 2: which is the playoffs, he showed up big, made some

148
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 2: big time throws. So yeah, bad bet didn't deserve to

149
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 2: cover it at all in this Rams team, like all

150
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 2: of us, you know, we've said it all year. Great offense,

151
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 2: but my gud is that defense bad. Like they are

152
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 2: just one or two corners short. It looks like so

153
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 2: be interesting if they can make a Super Bowl run

154
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 2: having such a bad defense. We've seen time and time again. Right,

155
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 2: it's all about the quarterback play, so they can overcome

156
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 2: it like they did in this game, right Stafford incredible

157
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 2: last two minute drive you know, gets them to thirty

158
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 2: four points on the road in a playoff game like

159
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 2: that was really impressive by Stafford. They needed it just because,

160
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 2: like I said, Bryce Young, he drove that field and

161
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 2: scored that touchdown. I don't know about you, but I

162
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 2: was like, my god, Bryce Young just stole this game.

163
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 2: But yes, Dafford, a composed veteran, drove the field and

164
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: won this game. So it's a bad, bad bet by us.

165
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 2: Even worse all these games, I was told there was rain.

166
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 2: I don't think it even rained once in this entire game.

167
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 2: So as bad as we had wharter, we won three

168
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 2: this week. These weather people, weather forecasters were worse for

169
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 2: over one hundred this week. I don't think there was

170
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 2: a ranger shown any game they're predicted. Just every game

171
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 2: was perfect weather, clear skies. I think the only thing

172
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,319
Speaker 2: we had was it was cold for the Bears game,

173
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 2: as if that mattered anyway. So, yeah, this game totally

174
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 2: mistread on the under It went over for like at halftime.

175
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. It was gross and disgusting. You're not

176
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 1: wrong about the refs. The Rams were penalized nine times

177
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,079
Speaker 1: in this game. They were the least penalized team in

178
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: the NFL this year. Nine times. They were penalized in

179
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: this game. And look, you're talking about that that PI

180
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: like it's they're up seventeen to seven in the Rams,

181
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: they recover a fumble in the Panther's territory instead of

182
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: the easy field goal. They go four and fourth, don't convert.

183
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 1: Immediately after, Panthers get a long PI for a completion,

184
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: Young scramble long PI, long completion. Young scrambles for a

185
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: touchdown instead of twenty to seven and seventeen fourteen, and

186
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 1: then Puka drops a touchdown pass just before the end

187
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: of the half. Puka doesn't drop anything, he drops in

188
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: his hands a touchdown pass. That's when I was like

189
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: dead bet, time to move on. Rams just played with

190
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: their food. It's so interesting to me. And this was

191
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: a common theme. We'll talk about this next with the

192
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: Packers and the Bears. Like teams, bad habits show up

193
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: and are accentuated the most in the playoffs. And we

194
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: thought the Rams would be perfect in this game and

195
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: that's how they would cover the ten and a half.

196
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: But they played with their food. That's what they've done.

197
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,199
Speaker 1: What's what we talked about. Was there a c is

198
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 1: here still? Matthew Stafford snatched their hearts? Did hurt his

199
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,599
Speaker 1: finger though? Green Bay at Chicago. Green Bay was a

200
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: two and a half point favorite, Like this was a

201
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 1: late change and another one. We were cruising making up

202
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: for the debacle that was the Rams. And I was

203
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 1: willing to sacrifice the Bears because Indiana had me so happy.

204
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: Fate intervened, Simon, and I was forced to make an

205
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: emotional commitment, and so I had to and like at

206
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: some point I just turned and I'm like, I don't

207
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: care about the bet. I get what I deserve on

208
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: the bet. I'm on the Bears. I love the Bears.

209
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 2: Let's go now the real questions. Did you take them

210
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 2: live as?

211
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: Oh?

212
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 2: I think at half they were seventeen and a half

213
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 2: points spread, and it might have been a ten to

214
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 2: one or eleven to one on the money line. And honestly,

215
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 2: I made the bet thinking there's no way it's gonna happen,

216
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 2: but just in case it does, and you know, Haalob

217
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 2: does something crazy in the fourth quarter, I wouldn't at

218
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 2: least have some money on this. And you know, I

219
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 2: think it was twenty one to six three minutes left

220
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 2: in the third quarter, and I think the next clip

221
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 2: you put up is it's like twenty one to nine

222
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 2: with thirteen minutes left in the fourth quarter. Just all

223
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 2: these numbers that keep putting up on the screen of like, oh,

224
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,439
Speaker 2: it's impossible. The Bears, I think, in their one hundred

225
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 2: year history, never came back from more than down five

226
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 2: points in the playoffs. And yeah, Kleb scored twenty five

227
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 2: points in the fourth quarter. Doesn't even sound real to

228
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: say that really did happen. And you know, the kicker

229
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 2: for Green Bay again, I'm not gonna put too much

230
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 2: on him, but at the end of the day, that's yeah,

231
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 2: you can blame the defense. They were exhausted at that point.

232
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 2: The Green Bay defense had no legs left. It's all

233
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 2: about the kicker. You miss two field goals an extra

234
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 2: point in a game in which you know you should

235
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: have won a thousand times over, it just totally shifted everything.

236
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 2: I think your guys kicker was perfect that he went

237
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: through the field goals, didn't miss an extra point, and

238
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, that's what decided the game.

239
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, Green Bay, I know if you're a fan,

240
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 2: you want to fire the floor right now? What is

241
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 2: he three? Yeah, exactly. I wouldn't do it, and lets

242
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 2: you know, you're getting horriball or something like that. Maybe

243
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 2: I could a lie to myself. But he's such a

244
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 2: great offensive mind. He knows what he needs to work on, right,

245
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 2: he needs to work on how to manage a lead,

246
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 2: and that this whole season, like you said, they're ugly

247
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,719
Speaker 2: warts popped up what they have five straight three and

248
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 2: now it's whatever it was. It was a debacle how

249
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 2: they treated that second half like Jordan Love you know

250
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 2: through for over three to the yards, four touchdowns. He

251
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 2: shouldn't be losing that game. No turnovers, I mean Caleb

252
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 2: first two turnovers he's had, so he threw two picks.

253
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 2: I think it was the first time he had done

254
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: that since Week three of his rookie year in a

255
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 2: game like that game was playing exactly what you thought,

256
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 2: which was okay, first time in the playoffs. It's all fast.

257
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 2: It's too fast for Caleb right now, and it was.

258
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: It was too fast for him for three quarters. And

259
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 2: then once he settled down, they started running that you know,

260
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 2: prevent defense. He got into a groove. I mean that

261
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 2: the Loveland connection between him and this tight end. Man,

262
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 2: it's crazy. One hundred receiving yards for a rookie tight end.

263
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 2: They said it was like the first time that's happened

264
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 2: since the eighties or something like that. So, yeah, Bears fans,

265
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 2: you're awful defense. But at the same time, why not us?

266
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 2: Like if I was a Bears fan, I would say,

267
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 2: why not us to win? Make our run to the

268
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 2: super Bowl. You have the talent, you have the coaching,

269
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 2: your Achilles heal will consistently be that defense. I mean,

270
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 2: like we said, they couldn't stop a cold and then

271
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: you basically forced five straight three and outs or whatever.

272
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 2: It was like the defense when they need to, they

273
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 2: step up consistently of this Bears defense and you know,

274
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 2: you lost your tackle. I don't know if he's a

275
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 2: left back of your right tack and then you lost TJ. Edwards.

276
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 2: Can they overcome that? Maybe? I mean they've overcome everything else.

277
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 2: But my god, what an incredible winning h Yeah. If

278
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 2: you're a fan of the Bears, Caleb Williams, you just

279
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 2: got to be seeing roses right now. If this is

280
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 2: as good as it gets, that sucks. But if I

281
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 2: was a Bears fan, I would say this is just

282
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 2: the beginning, Like this is just the beginning of the

283
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 2: next five to ten year run. So this could be

284
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 2: the change of the guard man. The Green Bays own

285
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 2: you guys for twenty five years here, maybe this is

286
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 2: the flip chat. So I'm just excited for Bears fans.

287
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 2: As much of money as this game cost me, all

288
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 2: you can do is left, right. I think the read

289
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 2: was right. It's just a playoff football happened. So at

290
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 2: the end of the day, it was a bad bet

291
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 2: because we lost it.

292
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: Well look number one, unlike the Rams, I don't have

293
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: any regrets about this bet. It was twenty they had

294
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 1: scored twenty seven total points. We were on the under

295
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: and the Packers were up by fifteen points, right, so,

296
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: and the Bears had a five percent chance to win

297
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: with a quarter left in the game, there was no

298
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: reason to think the Bears were going to come back

299
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: and win this game. They were going to end up

300
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 1: scoring as many points as they did in this game,

301
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: like this was a good bet. And the you know,

302
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: even when the Bears, I think the Bears cut it

303
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: to twenty one sixteen, and their odds or their percentage

304
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 1: chance to win moved up a little bit. Then the

305
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: Packers scored again, and it's twenty seven to sixteen, and

306
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the Bears are back down to

307
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: five percent. And then on what will ever forever be

308
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: known now as the Jumpman throw. I don't know if

309
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: you saw that video from NFL memes, but when Kleb

310
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: made that miraculous perfect pass on fourth and eight, like sideways,

311
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: the way his body was composed, it's the exact silhouette

312
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: of the Michael Jordan Jumpman logo. You may have missed

313
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: it because all I've done.

314
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 2: Since Saturday the throw, I missed.

315
00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: The Oh, it's unbelievable, Like it's the exact the way

316
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: his legs are splayed and the way his arms are out.

317
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 1: It's the exact silhouette of the jump man logo. All

318
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,159
Speaker 1: I've done for forty eight hours is watch videos of

319
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: the Bears and the city of Chicago celebrating and to

320
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: your point about the rivalry, Ben Johnson just deciding to

321
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: lean into it and own it no fear, and then

322
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: doing what they did against the Packers. Matt Mitchell played

323
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,479
Speaker 1: this clip because this is Caleb to me right now,

324
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: understanding who he is and what he can do with

325
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 1: this team.

326
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, they wanted us, That's what I heard. They want

327
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 2: it in They got it.

328
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 1: I mean, the guy's in his in his place right now.

329
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: I'm loving the way this team is connecting with Chicago.

330
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: It hurts we lost the bet. Hurts we lost the

331
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: under that was really sort of the tipping point into

332
00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 1: a really bad weekend for us. But I'm waking up

333
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: as a Bears fan and I am elated.

334
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I bet you are. Is as someone who's always

335
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 2: disliked the way nixt Year is gone about his business.

336
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 2: Ben Johnson right there with him just unreal. I mean

337
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 2: that freeze frame of him with his mouth open like

338
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 2: a ten year old gonna shake La Floor's hand. Yeah,

339
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 2: you love him because you're a barrass fan.

340
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 1: Oh, he's got such douche tendencies and it's.

341
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 2: A dude, hold the shit to do that to that man.

342
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 2: But hey, you won, you can do whatever you want

343
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 2: it when you're a winner, Like we always say, winners

344
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 2: can do whatever they want. It's the way it goes.

345
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: I don't even know where it's coming from, because you know,

346
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: I saw the floor.

347
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 2: Un you know where it's coming from to. I know

348
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,360
Speaker 2: he's a psycho path I know.

349
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 1: But I saw like the floor on part of my take,

350
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 1: I think, or I think it was part of my

351
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: take where they asked him Big Can might have asked

352
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 1: him like do you even know Ben Johnson. He's like, no,

353
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: I don't even know the guy. So like the fact

354
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: that he's made it personal.

355
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 2: Is just he's a crazy in a long time, right

356
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 2: from Detroit to the Bears, So I get Green Bay

357
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 2: has always been the top dog in that's you got

358
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 2: to take them down. So you know, Ben, like we say,

359
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 2: he's a crazy person, but that's exactly the man you

360
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 2: want running the Bears team.

361
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 1: San Francisco in Philly under forty four and a half.

362
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 1: So we were on the side here too, but we

363
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: put the under into the contest under forty four and

364
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 1: a half. I mean barely. We barely got this one.

365
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 1: We needed AJ Brown to drop that ball just to

366
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: make sure there wasn't a threat. But look, this is

367
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 1: how bad it is in Philly. You know, I know

368
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: you know this. I'll spare you. My older son, who's

369
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: in Philly, goes to school in Philly, doesn't even like sports,

370
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 1: texted me yesterday that he thought it was time for

371
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,120
Speaker 1: AJ Brown to go or the offensive coordinator to go.

372
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 1: Then my younger son sent me a TikTok of these

373
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 1: two dudes in Philly. It was freaking hilarious. They're like,

374
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 1: this se isn't even fair. The Niners had so many

375
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: injured players the Eagles could not properly prepare. And then

376
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 1: I sent you that video of the kid, like the

377
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: ten year old who was just all Philly. He's like,

378
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,959
Speaker 1: this was my birthday present and it sucks. You were

379
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: surprisingly quiet on the text chain the past twenty four hours,

380
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: so I don't know if you've been seeing anything or not.

381
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 2: I've just I've been dead close shut the blind, totally

382
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 2: put on all the sad music, just living into the sadness.

383
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 2: But yeah, AJ Brown right now in Philadelphia is known

384
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 2: by AJ clown. He is, Oh God, aided right now

385
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 2: in the city. And that's how it is. If you

386
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 2: run your mouth, you act like the big dog and

387
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 2: everyone has to cater to you. People have to walk

388
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 2: on eggshells around you. You show up and lay that

389
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 2: game out there. It's my god, is that was that embarrassing?

390
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 2: And in true AJ clown fashion, he shook all his

391
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 2: teammates hans and didn't say a word to the media,

392
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 2: just got out of dodge because a man would face

393
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 2: the media. AJ clown is not a man now. AJ Brown,

394
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 2: who is a man, I'm hoping can turn it around

395
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 2: and come back to us next year because it's basically

396
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 2: we cut him, he trade him. It's twenty million of

397
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 2: dead cape. I'd much rather have the cancer that is

398
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 2: AJ Brown on the team and all of his bullshit

399
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 2: because when he puts it together, he's an a credible receiver,

400
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 2: but inexcusable quitting on routes, those drops, all of it.

401
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 2: You're just like, oh my god, I can't believe how

402
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 2: bad he was. But end of the day, as much

403
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 2: as I want to give crap to this Eagles offense

404
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 2: and how bad the OC is, I think they'll correct

405
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 2: they'll fire the guy. I was honestly shocked by how

406
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 2: bad Fangs was in this defense. Fangio, you know, the

407
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 2: great coach he is. I can't believe he gave up

408
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 2: thirteen points of this forty nine ers team in that

409
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 2: fourth quarter. Like it just was shocking. Because the Eagles,

410
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 2: I think they're up thirteen to ten. They felt like

411
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 2: they were totally dominating this game, totally dominant.

412
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 1: I kept thinking like they're one touchdown away from giving

413
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,640
Speaker 1: us the cover and shutting this down.

414
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 2: And even then that they go down to kick the

415
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 2: field goal and it's sixteen tenths we are covering at

416
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 2: that point, and you know, just an incredible drive by

417
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 2: party Eagles fans. Once again, we talked about the refs.

418
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 2: They're all in their feels about the refs, yere and

419
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:10,719
Speaker 2: I get it. I feel like every time we got

420
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 2: a first down it was a holding call. And you know,

421
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,199
Speaker 2: this four naty team we' talked about how banged that

422
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 2: they are. Trent Williams playing on one good leg. They

423
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 2: had one penalty for fifteen yards in the entire game,

424
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 2: and that was that bullshit call, and I think Hurts

425
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 2: Hurts slid the guy hit him yeah, it called her

426
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 2: you know, dangerous plate to the head wherever it was.

427
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 2: I mean, every play you watch, Trent Williams is literally

428
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 2: holding guys and pulling guys back and pretty scrambling on

429
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 2: a play and they're holding guys and it's just you know,

430
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 2: you can call holds on the Eagles. We have to

431
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:40,959
Speaker 2: call it both ways. So the Eagles at home had

432
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 2: seven penalties for forty eight yards. I mean, what are

433
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 2: we doing? Is there not a home field advantage in

434
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 2: every way there's you know, between all the footage and stuff.

435
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 2: I think Eagles fans are upset about. At the end

436
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 2: of the day, this was not a Super Bowl winning team.

437
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 2: So it sucks because to me, it's just another year

438
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 2: we wasted. And we talk all the time. You know,

439
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 2: you if you do well in life, especially in your job,

440
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 2: you will get more grease and you can do more

441
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 2: things you want to do. And Nick was able to

442
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 2: hire his best friend as the offensive coordinator and it

443
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 2: was a training wreck. This was the number two offense

444
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 2: in all of football last year and this year they

445
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 2: grat out. Now I'm looking at it right now, it's

446
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 2: the twentieth ranked offense. So nothing's changed. I mean, out

447
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 2: of the lane. Johnson piece didn't help. But I've been

448
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 2: refreshing social media all day and they waiting for the

449
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 2: news that we fired Petulhu and it never happened. So

450
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's it's bad vibes right now for

451
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 2: the Seagulls team. But yeah, the forty nine ers well deserving,

452
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 2: you know, banged up team, pretty showed up, played great

453
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 2: and yeah, his reward is a short week now on

454
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 2: the road and going against the Seahawks with with no Kittle, Yeah,

455
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 2: no Kittle.

456
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it's remarkable how they've like they're playing receivers

457
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 1: who hadn't been making catches the entire year, and then

458
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: they ended up with a hundred yards receiving like truly

459
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,239
Speaker 1: special game for the Niners. But the truth is is

460
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 1: until the third quart, until the fourth quarter, they were

461
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: getting by on three big plays and the Eagles really

462
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: should have just put them away. The fact they didn't

463
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 1: it's a pox to a pox on the city of Philadelphia. Interesting. Also,

464
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 1: we said about the Rams, we said about the Packers,

465
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: the Eagles, they came undone in the exact way they've

466
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: come done on Dull all year this point. Teams are

467
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: who they are they got to take that into account

468
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: when we're doing the handicap.

469
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 2: The stats where we leave this game just because they're

470
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 2: so many insane ones. Eagles. Basically, they had four drops

471
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 2: on third down against the forty nine Ers in the

472
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 2: wildcard round. That's the most third drops the team has

473
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 2: had in regular season and playoffs since they began tracking

474
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 2: in twenty two thousand and six. So historical, Like, I mean,

475
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 2: I know it's today. If you're a Jalen Hurts hater, yeah,

476
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 2: it's a great debt. You just can bury the guy

477
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 2: and everything like that. But my god, talking about leaving

478
00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 2: a man out for dry, I couldn't believe that they

479
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 2: had four drops third down, which is just unheard of

480
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 2: the last forty seasons. Teams with zero turnovers thirty five

481
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 2: plus minutes of possession are twenty into at home in

482
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 2: NFL history over the last forty years. The two losses

483
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 2: the Eagles this past Sunday to that Fornaner's team and

484
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: the Bills in twenty twenty three against the Chiefs, Wow,

485
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 2: just historical, Like it wasn't Patrick Mahomes coming through that door,

486
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 2: it was Rock Purty. So yeah, that just shows the

487
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 2: coaching it's it's the big Achilles heal right now for

488
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 2: this Eagles team. So I trust ownership they'll do something.

489
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 2: They just can't roll this back. And again I think

490
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 2: Nick Sieran has obviously deserved another year. But if there's

491
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:46,160
Speaker 2: guys out there like Horball, potentially a guy out there

492
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,360
Speaker 2: like Lafleur, that's a real conversation to have. So it's

493
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 2: gonna be a really interesting next week here in Philadelphia.

494
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 2: What's gonna happen in the head coaching position.

557
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: All right, one more game to recap Los Angeles Chargers

558
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: plus three and a half at New England.

559
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 2: What the fuck are we doing?

560
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 1: We we fooled ourselves. We made a big mistake. I

561
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: don't know how we ended up here. We let all

562
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: of the trends deceive us into believing that Justin Herbert

563
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 1: was a playoff quarterback in this offensive line could somehow

564
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: hold up and we were wrong.

565
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 2: So you're one of those people you think the offensive

566
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 2: line wasn't good enough in this game.

567
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: The offensive line was fine but.

568
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 2: Reaching some stats, Chad, but his average time to throw

569
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:15,080
Speaker 2: against the Patriots was almost three point five seconds. That's

570
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 2: the highest of his career, in the highest of since

571
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 2: a Week eight of twenty twenty four. So again, people

572
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 2: are gonna make excuse me. Oh my god, you see

573
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 2: Herbert all these guys fun around him. I think you're right, Chat.

574
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 2: I think maybe it is the lights are just too

575
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 2: bright for Justiner.

576
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, I like this wasn't a The offensive line

577
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: wasn't the issue where he got sacked a bunch, But

578
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 1: the dude couldn't That was on him all to make

579
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 1: a right He couldn't make a play.

580
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 2: Now, he missed open guys, He had bad reads and honestly,

581
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 2: the game went how I thought I was going through. Right,

582
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 2: Patriots hadn't played the legit defense all season. They got

583
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 2: held to sixteen points like that, That for them is

584
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 2: very low output. Right, That's as good as you're gonna

585
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 2: get for shutting down Drake May who you know, once

586
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 2: again his first career playoff game, he had the jitters

587
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 2: and they could not take advantage of it. Once he

588
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 2: settled in that second half and he played great. Tons

589
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 2: of props to Drake may So, Herbert, Yeah, he screwed

590
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 2: us like that pick. I don't know if that was

591
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 2: the first quarter of the second quarter. The opportunity was

592
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 2: right there and he had four downs, couldn't get even

593
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 2: a first down, let alone get in the end zone.

594
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 2: And yeah, Herbert totally laider neck here. And you know,

595
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 2: just like Jalen Hurts has his haters, Justin Herbert has

596
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 2: his truthers, people that absolutely love him. They they'll just

597
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 2: let it slide. They'll blame the offensive line and we'll

598
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 2: keep it moving to the next season. But I'm right

599
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 2: there with you. I'll back Herbert now, no problem in

600
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 2: the regular season, but playoffs, it's got to be right

601
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 2: up there on our big board for the rest of

602
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 2: his career. We really have to think about it. Is

603
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 2: it is it the team's fault or is this on

604
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 2: Justin Herbert? Because you know, the first time around, what

605
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 2: was it, twenty seven to seven, the lead they blew

606
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 2: the Jags. Yeah, his next time it was against Houston,

607
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 2: a great defense. We didn't against him this game. I

608
00:31:58,520 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 2: really thought it was gonna be off to the line

609
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 2: that the pointed to let him down. It it wasn't though.

610
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 2: It really fell all into him. He had time, he

611
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 2: had protection, He just looked totally lost and flustered to

612
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 2: get to Patriots defense. So tons of credit the variable.

613
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 2: You know, how did the guys prepared well coach defensively,

614
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 2: But you know, you go on the road, then you

615
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 2: score three points, that's just just embarrassing, honestly for this

616
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 2: Chargers team. So yeah, bad read Like you said, obviously

617
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 2: we both wish we'd simply just put the under in.

618
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 2: And uh yeah, this this one was real, especially because

619
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 2: even the teasers, I couldn't believe it didn't cover the

620
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 2: ten and a half, you know, nine and a half

621
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 2: teasers just insane how bad the Chargers were in this game.

622
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 2: So you know, Patriots, they got they gotta They're gonna

623
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 2: have an interesting game next week. Obviously it's either gonna

624
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 2: be Houston or the Texans. But I'd be pretty happy

625
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: if I was the Patriots team and dodge the Bills, right,

626
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 2: I'd much rather get Texans or Houston or Texans or

627
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh coming in then, Josh Allen, So yeah, I see

628
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 2: what Patriots fans are saying right their path a few

629
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 2: games away from Super Bowl, pretty insane if you're a.

630
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: Patriots I I feel like with Herbert, he talked a

631
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: little bit about it yesterday and sort of questioned himself,

632
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 1: is are the playoffs different? And like should people? Is

633
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 1: it fair to judge him for what what's happened so

634
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: far in these three playoff games. Uh, you hate to

635
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: criticize a guy when he's down, but look that mhm.

636
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: They had so many chances to put that game in

637
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 1: their favor. The Patriots were really struggling in that game.

638
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 1: The fact that there was low so low scoring was

639
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: really giving the Chargers a chance with every drive to

640
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 1: put themselves in the league in that game, and they

641
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: just couldn't couldn't get there. I was going to say

642
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 1: something about shame, but I don't want to. I don't

643
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 1: want to preview anything.

644
00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 2: I don't want to. I don't want to preview it

645
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 2: yet continue into the postseason shame And uh, well, I

646
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:03,959
Speaker 2: don't know.

647
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: I feel like you know thematically, this is the show

648
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: where we should be flogging ourselves. So whether we continue

649
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: it in the postseason or not, we're certainly doing a shame,

650
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: a shame of the week. This week, let's talk about

651
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: the Bills Jacks for a second though.

652
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 2: To get back in the game, the Bills needed every

653
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 2: balance of the ball to go their way.

654
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: Because, you know, Matt Mitchell, our podcast producer, even though

655
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,320
Speaker 1: we spent so many hours debating this smugly guaranteed a

656
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: Bill's victory. He was adamant. He broke out his you know,

657
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety two Bills Super Bowl sweatsuit. He was so confident.

658
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: He was just giddy sending his pictures. Good for Josh Allen,

659
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 1: good for the Bills. Yeah, gotta believe if you're a

660
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,800
Speaker 1: Bill's fan, or don't go away and fasten your seat belt.

661
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,799
Speaker 2: Yeah. Another game though, feels like you know, Lie and

662
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 2: Cohen his first head coaching playoff game. He blew this game.

663
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 2: Let's let's not miss words here and again, it's gonna

664
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 2: come down to the kicker who you know, little is

665
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 2: getting crushed. He should be because he's on Twitter trolling

666
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,799
Speaker 2: Vikings fans the day before a game and then goes

667
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 2: out and misses a kick that changed everything. I mean

668
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 2: cost me a ton of money. I had Jags plus

669
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 2: a half Jags money line first half and they got

670
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 2: crazy call to even put him that spot right the

671
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 2: off side a second back and then he misses that

672
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 2: kick and they lose this game by three. So you know,

673
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence eighteen and thirty two hundred yards, three touchdowns,

674
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 2: two picks. They overcame the picks, But I don't get

675
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 2: why they were throwing them like they they couldn't pick.

676
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 2: They picked up if like six seven yards per carry

677
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 2: running the ball, they could not be stopped running the ball,

678
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 2: and for some reason they had him thirty pass attempts.

679
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 2: I don't I didn't really get that by Liam Cohen.

680
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 2: And on the flip side, Josh Allen, he's why we

681
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 2: call him superman. He's the best. I mean, it's someone

682
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 2: that we've given tons of accolades to who's done zero

683
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 2: postseason stuff for good reason because he's so talented and

684
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:08,879
Speaker 2: in this game eighty percent completion percentage. And again I'm

685
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 2: not I wasn't trying to talk about the Bills, but

686
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 2: you don't have a number one receiver like Cooks, a

687
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,439
Speaker 2: guy they just picked up is out here making huge

688
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 2: plays for them, Like it's crazy how bad the receiving

689
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 2: corps is.

690
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 1: Andann Coleman made a play.

691
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, Cat Coleman did it, and it was a nice play.

692
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 2: Threw the defender down. Yeah, but you know, in a

693
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 2: game where you're averaging three yards per carry, he put

694
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 2: it all on him with a bad leg, a bad foot,

695
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,359
Speaker 2: maybe concussion. It's just you can't get over how great

696
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 2: of a quarterback came. Yeah, it's unfortunate for him. He's

697
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 2: got a truly an idiot of a head coach and

698
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 2: Sean McDermott, and the defense is just so bad. I

699
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 2: don't know how they're gonna overcome it. But you got

700
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,880
Speaker 2: Josh Allen, your path might be bone knicks and then

701
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 2: Drake May like this is this is getting real now,

702
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 2: because I really did think this was gonna be a

703
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,720
Speaker 2: true test for them, and you know, Josh Allen showed

704
00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 2: in a big way. But yeah, just you know, like

705
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 2: I said, not that I wish he's on a different team,

706
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 2: but Sean McDermott, even when he speaks after the game,

707
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 2: I'm just like, this man is such an idiot. Someone

708
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 2: asked him again about the touch push, because I don't

709
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 2: if you remember they tried to ban the toush push. Yeah, well,

710
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 2: seem now it's like you know, they're the best team

711
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 2: in the NFL. Are running the play now this season

712
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 2: like it's been their bread and butter. And in that game,

713
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:20,320
Speaker 2: I think they had a toush push for ten yards

714
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 2: and yeah play And it's why we all think Sean

715
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 2: mcdermot's an idiot. If you're so successful at it, no

716
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 2: one got it, why would you not kneel there and

717
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 2: run forty seconds off? Like we always said there, they

718
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 2: got lucky that their stupidity worked out for him because

719
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,879
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence threw that pick, but a minute left, Trevor

720
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 2: Lawrence easy could have drove that field got a touchdown there,

721
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 2: and Mahomes has done it in thirteen seconds against them. So,

722
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 2: like you said, it seems like these coaches don't learn

723
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 2: from their past mistakes sometimes. And that's my favorite. Sean

724
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 2: McDermott just the final two minutes is coaching. It's just

725
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,879
Speaker 2: so bad. So I am. I have tons of questions

726
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,120
Speaker 2: about this team, but I keep saying to myself, like it,

727
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 2: this is what we get for doubting Josh Josh Allen.

728
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 2: He was never gonna lose this game, right, So yeah,

729
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 2: tons of props of the Bills and got the monkey

730
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 2: off his back, right, He needed to get that first

731
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 2: road win and he finally got it. Now, So Josh,

732
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 2: he's got to have the confidence of beliefs. It's talking

733
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 2: to how is how does his body react to what

734
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 2: he just went through? Because he was beaten up in

735
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 2: that game. The Jags were hitting so hard that tired game.

736
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 2: So yeah, I know it's a tough spot for them

737
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 2: because now they're, what on a short week, going to

738
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 2: play Denver. But that's just them. That's the breaks. These

739
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,400
Speaker 2: one seeds get teams off short weeks. It's been that

740
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 2: way now ever since they went to seven teams.

741
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 1: Listen, Congrats to Josh Allen, Congrats to Bill's mafia. Congrass

742
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: to Matt Mitchell. Congrats to the entire neighborhood that Matt

743
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,280
Speaker 1: Mitchell lives in, who are just eating free ice cream.

744
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: As long as the Bills continue advancing in the playoffs. Shame, shame, shame, Simon,

745
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,799
Speaker 1: It's got to be us. We had a chance to

746
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: do two things in the wild card weekend that we

747
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 1: have done religiously in and the entirety of our show together.

748
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 1: Bet the Panthers just big underdogs at home, and bet

749
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel. We did neither the best coach against the

750
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 1: spread in NFL history. We did not bet him our

751
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: favorite team to bet as underdogs, we did not bet them.

752
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: We outthunk and out talked and out maneuvered ourselves into losses.

753
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 1: So shame, shame, shame on us.

754
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 2: I guess I'll be quick. I'll shame AJ Brown, Shame

755
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 2: on you, AJ Clown. I just the whole city is

756
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,719
Speaker 2: so heartbroken right now. And you know, I want to

757
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 2: get the guy that benefit of doubt, just because he's

758
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 2: such a ton of receiver, but to act like he

759
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 2: did all season and then go out there and drop

760
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 2: three passes like that, and you know, pouting on the sideline,

761
00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 2: and I know it makes you feel like an old man,

762
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 2: but oh my god, I wish he just had an

763
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 2: adult in his life to shake him. It's just he's

764
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 2: just one of those classic people. He thinks the grass

765
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 2: is greener on the other side, and it's not. The

766
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 2: grass is green right below your feet. Brother. I just

767
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 2: hope someone could gain in his year and talk to

768
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,399
Speaker 2: him because that that game, and again, there's a lot

769
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 2: of things that happen in it, but it's how do

770
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 2: you not blame him? Just so many crucial third down plays.

771
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,760
Speaker 2: Did he just not show up for so yeah, shame

772
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 2: shame on you, aj clown.

773
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: It worked out against us. But the winner of the

774
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: week has to be Kayleb Williams, just because he preached it,

775
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: he walked it, he did it. The Bears get the

776
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams with injured Matt Stafford at home. Cann't

777
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:50,240
Speaker 1: be more excited for this Bears team. Caleb Williams winner

778
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 1: of the week. But my hero, my hero of the week. Okay,

779
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:58,680
Speaker 1: there's no one to choose for any of our winning

780
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,120
Speaker 1: bets because we barely won any bats in the one

781
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 1: game we won.

782
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:03,400
Speaker 2: We get anyone you won. No one's question. I just

783
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 2: you said winner of the week. I'm making sure three

784
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 2: hero hero.

785
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:11,439
Speaker 1: Maybe he's a hero that came along to save the

786
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 1: Bear season, all right. Reminded the contest players size and

787
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: totals in the contest again. In the division round, thank god,

788
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,479
Speaker 1: we got so many choices, Simon says, it's Pittsburgh plus

789
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,479
Speaker 1: three and a half. We got a shot for redemption here.

790
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 1: Chad's choice was the Rams minus ten and a half,

791
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 1: Negativo brass Balls charges plus three and a half. Oh no,

792
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,720
Speaker 1: Rock in her place. Green Bay minus two and a half.

793
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 1: No good Sharper Square. Chad had Chicago green Bay under

794
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: forty five and a half. Simon had the Eagles minus

795
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 1: four and a half. Favorites Parlay Rams yay, green Bay No,

796
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: Philly no underdog Parlay, Pittsburgh yes or we don't know,

797
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 1: but Los Angeles charters no. Before we get out of here,

798
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 1: Simon final thoughts on Houston at Pittsburgh.

799
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, still feel confident with the Steelers. A couple tune

800
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 2: halves popped up, which was nice to see. Public right

801
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,959
Speaker 2: now is five and oh this week. If you would

802
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 2: just blindly bet with the public, you would be five

803
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 2: and oh this week. So they've been nailing the sides.

804
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 2: I'm hoping it comes back to their way. We get

805
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 2: one here with the Steelers. And just before we go,

806
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 2: Chad my last stat playoff passing touchdowns. Juwan Jennings too.

807
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 2: Justin Herbert too, got jam Jwan Jennings.

808
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 1: That's amazing, Smon. I couldn't have gotten through this without

809
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 1: you and without Matt Mitchell. This was I was dreading

810
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: this all day, felt like agony waiting for the show.

811
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 1: I appreciate you being here for me I appreciate Matt

812
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 1: Mitchell being here for us, appreciate everyone who's been listening.

813
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,000
