That sounds like a boar to me, 13 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 3: And tonight I'm laughing at us, or at least I'm 14 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 3: preparing to. Because there are sometimes things that I think 15 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 3: we say as a general rule that I don't think 16 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 3: we actually believe. 17 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 2: I think we want to believe them. 18 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 3: You'll hear people every time we get to the NFL 19 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 3: playoffs in the super Bowl.

I would argue no. 22 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 3: If they come to you at your job and they 23 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 3: go everyone, sit down. We're making some changes. We're gonna 24 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 3: do some new things. The first thing you go is 25 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 3: oh bleep. So I don't think we actually like newness 26 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 3: as much as we think we do. We get to 27 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 3: put it to the test because Eve from good evening, 28 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: from a whole new world. 29 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 2: The Kansas City Chiefs are gone. 30 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 4: Bye bye wow. 31 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 32 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:37,279 Speaker 3: And I like the injury part of it is completely separate, because. 33 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: The Chiefs were gonna be gone either way. 34 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 3: Boy, I hope a Chiefs fan, if you're listening to 35 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 3: us tonight, please please, just for the sake of all 36 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 3: of our mental sanity, do not say, well, we had it, 37 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: but then Patrick got hurt. 38 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 4: Please no, no, no, no, please don't do it. 39 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: You didn't have it yet. 40 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 3: Yes, Patrick missed the playoffs, not just the Chiefs. Yes, 41 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 3: that happened. I don't care that the final interception was 42 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 3: thrown by Gardner Minshew. It doesn't even matter. If you 43 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 3: had come back in one today. You weren't making it. 44 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 3: You weren't gonna make it through this whole thing. So 45 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 3: there's that, and then we'll get to the Patrick part. 46 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 3: But the AFC as wide open as it has ever been, 47 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 3: and all of these quarterbacks Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, if 48 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 3: he's able to get there, and then the new ones 49 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 3: with Herbert and bo Nix and Drake May, they're all 50 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 3: gonna have their shot and they can't blame Mahomes forgetting 51 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 3: in the way. 52 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 4: Now, the crazy part about the I guess you would 53 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 4: say the old guard I would consider you know, Patrick 54 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 4: and Josh and La and Lamar part of they're not 55 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 4: old heads, but they're like, oh right, they're like acles 56 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 4: right right. And and you got a lot of youngsters 57 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 4: who are are playing out of their mind, and you 58 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 4: have some you know, you got one og stuck in there, 59 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 4: and we'll see him play tomorrow night, and that's Aaron Rodgers. 60 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 4: But when you look right now, prior to the game 61 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 4: that's about to come on, if you look at the teams, 62 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 4: the seven teams that are poised to make the playoffs, 63 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 4: you got the Broncos with the number one seed and 64 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 4: bow Nicks. You have New England the number two seeds 65 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 4: right with Drake May. You have h the the Jaguars. 66 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 2: Or the Texans right the Texans either ether or have 67 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: to get the three. 68 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 4: You have a Trevor Lawrence. You have Pittsburgh at the 69 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: four seed. Kind of in the middle. We're not quite 70 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 4: sure if that'll play out. That that way. But as 71 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 4: of right now, that's Aaron Rodgers, the old head, I 72 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 4: mean the og do. You have the Chargers with Justin 73 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 4: Herbert Buffalo, big win for them today, huge win for 74 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 4: them today with an Unk and Josh Allen. And you 75 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 4: have Houston right now in the seventh seed with a 76 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 4: very very young, but playoff experienced C. J. Stroud. So 77 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 4: when you're looking at the landscape of the league, you 78 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 4: can see the shift there. Currently there is no Lamar Jackson. No, 79 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 4: there won't be a Patrick Mahomes, and so you have 80 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 4: an opportunity now. I think the most pressure in the 81 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 4: spotlight really is on the back of a Josh Josh 82 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 4: Allen because you don't have to go through anyone anymore. 83 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 4: You don't have to go through a Joe Burrow, you 84 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 4: don't have to go through a Lamar or a Patrick Mahomes. 85 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 2: Might need to go through Lamar. But I hear you, like. 86 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 4: Can you, As we're sitting right right, right right, I. 87 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 2: Mean, they're gonna have another shot. 88 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 3: They're gonna have a shot. You're gonna have plenty of 89 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 3: a shot. They're seven and seven. We'll see what the 90 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 3: Steelers do. And obviously those two teams they finished the 91 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 3: year playing against against one another, probably maybe, I mean, 92 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 3: the Ravens do have an unbelievable final three games. I 93 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 3: don't know if you've looked ahead at this, but the Ravens, 94 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 3: I mean, okay, nice win today. It might have been 95 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 3: their last. Patriots next week at Lambeau the week after that, 96 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 3: and then they will go to Pittsburgh. 97 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 2: So there their road to this you gotta earn it, yep, 98 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: is going to be very, very difficult, but they're in it. 99 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 3: But yeah, dude, like what you are saying, can you 100 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 3: imagine if Josh Allen enters it if we had said 101 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 3: this to it at the beginning of the year, I 102 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 3: would argue, you could not put more pressure on this 103 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 3: young man's shoulders. 104 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: If we had said to you, hey, hey, Josh, you're. 105 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 3: Going to make the playoffs and when you get there, 106 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 3: Patrick Lamar and Joe all won't join you, wouldn't you 107 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 3: say you better go you you better go to Santa Clair, dude, 108 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 3: And and and we'll see how this plays out. But 109 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 3: as of right now, he gonna have to do it 110 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 3: on the road because he's like, I know, they won today, 111 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 3: so they got a shot, but they're still right now 112 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 3: are not in line to win that division. The Patriots 113 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 3: are gonna have to stumble again. 114 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, it's one of those things where this is 115 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 4: an exciting fighting three weeks left of the season. Hell yeah, 116 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 4: it's really exciting. I'm excited for it. I know football 117 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 4: fans around the world are excited for it. And you know, 118 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 4: we got some stuff in NFC as well. 119 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: Oh baby, you know, oh baby, I mean. 120 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 4: It was some amazing games today. Just FYI, a tremendous 121 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 4: almost was late to work because I couldn't leave, right 122 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 4: was late to work. I couldn't leave. I was My 123 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 4: son was like, hey man, you're still here. 124 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 3: Well, I think we knew going into the week, knowing 125 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 3: that the Packers were going to play the Broncos and 126 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 3: the Lions were going to play the Rams, and uh 127 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 3: and I think to a degree, the Seahawks going against 128 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 3: the Colts, the Chargers going against the Chiefs like this, 129 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 3: this was all this was, you know, and the Bills 130 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 3: going against the Patriots like this was set up up 131 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 3: to be a game changing kind of a weekend and 132 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 3: a lot of movement, and it did not disappoint for 133 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 3: everybody who wants to keep saying that those Denver Broncos 134 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 3: keep getting by on the skin. 135 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: Of their chinny chinchin. You know, they are on the 136 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:19,239 Speaker 2: chinna chinchin. 137 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 3: And it's like, so maybe they're not actually real Well, 138 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 3: I mean, now, they just beat the Packers, they just 139 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 3: beat the Chiefs a few weeks ago. They just went 140 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: into Houston and won a football game in November. 141 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 2: I get it. 142 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 3: I know they've won a lot of close games, but 143 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 3: they are starting to they're starting to put a resume together. 144 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 4: They're going to win their last the next two games, 145 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 4: and they're going to rest every bread Well I wouldn't 146 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 4: rest everybody, because you win the next two games, you're 147 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,959 Speaker 4: going to have the number one seat you so you're 148 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 4: going to get a bye. So they may approach it 149 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 4: as their starters come out and play the first quarter 150 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 4: or a series or something, maybe like a preseason game, 151 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 4: because you know, you have a week off. But the 152 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 4: Jaguars come to town and then they go to Kansas 153 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 4: City without Patrick Gardner. 154 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 2: Men, sure, you would think yep. 155 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 4: And so when you look at how they've set themselves up, 156 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 4: this is this is perfect for them. And all year, 157 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 4: like you said, well, they haven't beat anybody. They haven't 158 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 4: played anybody. Just beat everybody on their schedule, right, they 159 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 4: just beat everybody that you put in front of them. Well, 160 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 4: they lost to the Colts by a point. 161 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 3: Right, and I always the qualifier is always in there. 162 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 3: Do not forget how they lost that football game. Right, 163 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 3: They won that game except for a penalty on the 164 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 3: last play of the game, which was questionable, but it 165 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 3: gave the Colts a second shot at the game winning 166 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 3: field goal. It counts. I'm not saying that they didn't 167 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 3: lose the game. They did, but yeah, it's that and 168 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,599 Speaker 3: their three point loss to the Charger, the Chargers of 169 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 3: the week later, they're they're as much as we go. 170 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 2: Man, they're barely winning. They are almost undefeated. 171 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 4: Seriously, and so you have to recognize that. You have 172 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 4: to recognize the fact that their defense and their offense 173 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:15,599 Speaker 4: playing complementary basketball, and that's what you want. And they're 174 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 4: special teams. We very rarely mentioned special teams outside of 175 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 4: a kicker missing the kick. But their special teams is 176 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 4: also playing at a level that it just is giving 177 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 4: them good field position, it's backing teams up, you're getting 178 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 4: an array. It's just a good team. They're well coached, 179 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 4: They got a lot of young talent. Uh, and there 180 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 4: it's you know, Harvey had a rib injury late in 181 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 4: that game, so keep an eye out on that. But 182 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,839 Speaker 4: I was impressed by the way they went about their 183 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 4: business today. It was a tough games, big game, hot 184 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 4: Green Bay team, and they handle their business. 185 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 2: Just tremendous stuff. 186 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 3: But at the same time, that's kind of what I'm 187 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 3: getting at, Like I know that we go I'm so 188 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 3: just the same way we used to do the Patriots 189 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 3: and the Brady So sick of them. 190 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 2: Everybody show up at the super Bowl party, so sick 191 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: of this team. 192 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 3: And how many years has it been since the Chiefs 193 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 3: weren't in the Super Bowl? 194 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 2: What? What four years since the Chiefs weren't in the 195 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 2: Super Bowl? 196 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 4: Yeah? 197 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,599 Speaker 2: And now yeah, and now they're not even going to 198 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 2: be in the playoffs. And so. 199 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 3: I don't know, Ephraim, Like if if if bo Nicks, please, 200 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 3: Sam Darnold. 201 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,359 Speaker 2: Or Jordan Love, God forbid, Caleb. 202 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 4: Williams, God forbid. 203 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 3: But that's but if that's the super Bowl, I don't 204 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 3: want to hear anybody give me the old like way, 205 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 3: I got nothing to see my teeth into here, Like 206 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 3: if you ask for new then get ready for new. 207 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 4: Oh it's new, Yep, yep, it's new, and it's impressive. Uh, 208 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 4: it's this is this is These young players are playing 209 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 4: out of their mind and I love it. I'm here 210 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 4: for it because we get accustomed to talking about those 211 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 4: top four quarterbacks. Not so much Joe Burrow lately, but 212 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 4: the Lamars, the Allens, the uh and the Mahomes. Sure 213 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 4: we got a new crop. We got a new crop. 214 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 4: And look, you can say what you want about Houston, 215 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 4: but c J. Stroud has been in the league three years, 216 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 4: and three years they're gonna be in the playoffs. 217 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 2: Well if their offense, which is starting to hamala, if 218 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 2: their offensive line will give CJ. Stroud time. Hey, they 219 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: did today. Now they're playing the Arizona Cardinals. 220 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 4: That's it, man, you play who you play. It's late 221 00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 4: in the season. You got to be able to win 222 00:12:59,400 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 4: those games. 223 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 3: I know, but we're seven days removed from when the 224 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 3: Texans couldn't move the ball in the second half in 225 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 3: Kansas City. So I'm not like done with this. But 226 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 3: my point is is, if that offensive line gives CJ time, 227 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 3: then that is absolutely a super Bowl threat. With the 228 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 3: defense that the Houston Texans possess they're to me, they're 229 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 3: the best in the league. 230 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 4: Neil Hunter and Will Anderson, Yeah, on the book ends. 231 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 3: And the other thing which I want to get to 232 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 3: coming up next is you know, there's a lot of 233 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 3: football teams hell. You know, the Chargers have been one 234 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 3: of them, The forty nine Ers have certainly been one 235 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 3: of them. 236 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 2: The Tampa Bay Bucks were one of them. 237 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 3: At certain points in the year where you sit there 238 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 3: somewhat early in the year and go, man, our season 239 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 3: is ruined by injury. If you can hang in there, 240 00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 3: then maybe come January you're actually the healthy team. Cuz 241 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 3: look what happened today. And it's not just Mahomes. 242 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: The list of at least head scratchers right now where 243 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 2: you're like, ooh, how's that going to affect the playoffs 244 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 2: got pretty long today.

We 284 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 3: know that Patrick Mahomes has a torn ACL that's already 285 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 3: being reported and he's already tweeted about it and whatnot. 286 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 3: So okay, and the Chiefs aren't going to the playoffs anyway. 287 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 3: They fall to six and eight today. But I'm no doctor. 288 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 3: It certainly looked to me like what a torn ACL 289 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 3: looks like with Micah Parsons of the Green Bay Packers. 290 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 2: How does that affect the playoffs? 291 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 4: I mean, that's a just one of the top defensive 292 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 4: edge rushers in the league. I mean it affects the 293 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 4: playoffs to the standpoint that that have to have it 294 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 4: that Chris Jones will Chris Jones is meant to the 295 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 4: Chiefs the last three Super Bowl runs. It's a real 296 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 4: thing that one special guy you have on your team. 297 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 4: That's what he's there for. And it can come down 298 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 4: to a play. It can come down to a pressure 299 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 4: and Micah is that guy. Without him drawing the attention 300 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 4: of multiple offensive linemen, it may be a situation where 301 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 4: you know you double somewhere, you double somewhere else, and 302 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 4: you don't feel the need to have to game plan. 303 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 4: And that's a that's huge in the playoffs. 304 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 2: Yep, yep. I mean we see that around the league 305 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 2: a lot. 306 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:48,360 Speaker 3: By the way, first pass, first pass for JJ McCarthy 307 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 3: of the night gets intercepted. It was a batted ball, 308 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 3: batted ball on a secondary blitz that then got tipped 309 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 3: around a little bit and ended up in the hands 310 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 3: of a cowboyssive lineman. 311 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 2: So JJ McCarthy is oh for one with a pick 312 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 2: and the. 313 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 3: Cowboys have the ball at the opponent's thirty five short 314 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 3: field for them on their first possession of the game. 315 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 3: Keep you up to date there, But I think what 316 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 3: you're talking about, my friend, we see it all over 317 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 3: the league. The top example that pops to my mind 318 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 3: is watching what has happened to the San Francisco forty 319 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 3: nine ers defensive line this year in the absence of 320 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 3: Nick Bosa. And when you take that one dude, and 321 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 3: we know who the dudes are around the league, we'll 322 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 3: see what happens with the Steelers rush tomorrow with no TJ. 323 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 2: Watt. 324 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 3: When you take that one dude off, it allows the 325 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 3: offensive line to completely change the way that it's kind 326 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 3: of focusing its attention, and the trickle down effect is 327 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 3: just unbelievable. 328 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 4: That may talk to it, Yeah, go for it. 329 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 2: And why am I talking to you offensive lineman? 330 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 4: Go ahead, no, because you're absolutely right. Mark. It's one 331 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 4: of those situations where the night before the game, like 332 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 4: when I had the Freenies and the Jason Taylors and 333 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 4: the Bruce Smiths, the Charles Hayleys, the straight hands, the 334 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 4: night before the game for me was uneasy. Right, I'm 335 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 4: running through the plays, I'm looking at the first fifteen. 336 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 4: I'm like, why are there nine passing plays in the 337 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 4: first fifteen? And I have a beast that I have 338 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 4: to go against. All of those things matter. And I 339 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,439 Speaker 4: remember playing in Houston, I believe it was two thousand 340 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 4: and seven, two thousand and six, six seven, where we 341 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 4: were playing the Colts at home. It was on Christmas 342 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 4: Eve and we came up with a game plan to 343 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 4: nullify Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis. They're supreme d rushers. 344 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 4: I think both of them had over, you know, eleven 345 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 4: twelve sacks at the time, and we were like, we're 346 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 4: taking them out of the game. We're running third and eight, third, nine, 347 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. We're getting a nickel and we're gonna 348 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 4: run the ball. And that's what happened, and that's we won. 349 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 4: But I say that to say that's how much attention 350 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 4: and focus that we play. We pay attention to those 351 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 4: edge rushers like a Michael Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys 352 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 4: with a little flippity dippity trickery. 353 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 3: Speaking of paying attention, I'm listening to you. Yeah, I got, 354 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 3: I got, Holy hell, that was something else. Brandon Aubrey 355 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 3: is a weapon as a kicker, and it turns out, hey, 356 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 3: you can rush the ball a little bit too. How 357 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 3: about that a heck of a flip trickeration. The holder 358 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 3: flips it over his right shoulder to Aubrey, who takes 359 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 3: off for a first down. 360 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 4: He really could have threw the ball for a touchdown. 361 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 4: But I guess, you know, yeah, you know, whatever, pick 362 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 4: your battles. That was pretty good. 363 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:51,919 Speaker 2: That was slick. 364 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 3: So the Cowboys move the chains and now they're in 365 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 3: the high red zone. Still scoreless, very very early first quarter. 366 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 3: But yeah, like that has a huge effect. And then 367 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 3: the other one, they clinched a playoff spot today did 368 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 3: they win the battle and potentially damage the war? DeVante 369 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 3: Adams boy, he came up lame and he was battling 370 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 3: a hamstring injury before the game. 371 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 2: There was a period of time where Pooka Nakua left too. 372 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 3: Wow, And I'm like, hold the phone right if DeVante 373 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 3: and Pooka are both out. 374 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 2: Puka did return, but both of. 375 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,439 Speaker 3: Those guys are now battling, and I don't know if 376 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 3: people are thinking of this. You know how long the 377 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 3: Rams have to rest before they play again. That would 378 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 3: be four days, and their trip is to Seattle. This 379 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 3: is a monster game for the whole NFC West that 380 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,880 Speaker 3: has three double digit win teams already, and it sounds 381 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 3: like I'd be surprised at this point if the Rams 382 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 3: aren't at least a little bit hampered going into that game. 383 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 4: Well yeah, but you know, when you look at Matthew 384 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 4: Stafford and Veay and that offense it was literally like, man, 385 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:09,440 Speaker 4: this is this is crazy right, Like he has such 386 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 4: command over the ball and he threw an early pick. 387 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 4: It was a heck of a play by Hutchinson and 388 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 4: just a tremendous, tremendous play. He was trying to hit 389 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 4: the tight end who had who had blocked him, and 390 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 4: then was going out into a little screen and he 391 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 4: just zeroed it in and and you know, intercepted it 392 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 4: and ran it back about forty forty five yards. But 393 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford, when you watch him spin the ball and 394 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 4: you watch him drop back and pass it, it is 395 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 4: a thing of beauty. He's always been able to make 396 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 4: every single throw. And just watching him, now, I guess 397 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 4: he's a He's I guess he can. He's an what 398 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 4: he's a triple he's an OG.

Philip Rivers just gonna be signed 518 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 6: for like the first practice game. 519 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 2: And then how fun was that? 520 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 4: Like it was silly, it was fun and it's scary 521 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 4: at the same time. 522 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 3: Right, there was a lot of emotions. I had some 523 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 3: sadness at times. There was it was a little whimsical. 524 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 3: Then you're like, I'm not sure what's happening, and then 525 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 3: it was like are you gonna win? 526 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 2: And then the funniest thing of all is who in 527 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 2: the NFL? What? What quarterback. 528 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 3: Ever, are you facing a third and seven, you're down 529 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 3: by two points and you're at the you're at the 530 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 3: fifty from you're at the fifty and your coach is like, a. 531 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 2: Hell, let's run it. And they ran it. And then 532 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 2: that kicker came out and he hit it. 533 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 3: He hit it from sixty yards. But Shane Steiken basically 534 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 3: just conceded. He's like, I do not want Philip Rivers 535 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 3: dropping back on this play. 536 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 6: And then Steiken was literally laughing on the sidelines when 537 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 6: the kick actually went through for the late lead at Seattle. 538 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. 539 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 6: But at least he was in Rivers facing I don't 540 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 6: want to insult Seattle, but he wasn't facing the elite 541 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 6: defense like Denver, for example, which I'm sure would have 542 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 6: ended Philip Rivers day early. I mean, the Broncos led 543 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 6: the NFL in sacks last year. They lead the NFL 544 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 6: by a wide margin in sacks this year. Their pressure 545 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 6: rate is the best in the NFL. Forty percent of 546 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 6: the time the opposing quarterback dropped back he feels pressure. 547 00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 6: Tonight it was over fifty percent against your in love 548 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 6: with green Bank. 549 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. 550 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I don't know, did Philip did he 551 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 3: earn himself another start? I don't know anything about Wiley 552 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 3: Leonard's health, but like Monday Night Football, next week San 553 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 3: Francisco at. 554 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 4: Indy, he'll only be better than he was today. 555 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 2: For sure. 556 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 4: You look at it like, yeah, I mean he actually 557 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 4: drove them down and sort of and I mean put 558 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 4: them in position to win the game. 559 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 2: Four point four yards per attempt. 560 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 4: Wouldn't that have been a great story. 561 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 2: How many catches did wide receivers? I want to look 562 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 2: at this wide receivers no two, three, four, seven, seven balls. 563 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 4: They would be running past the line of scripts. 564 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 6: Well, they're leading receiver thirty two yards on the day, 565 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 6: was a running back? 566 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 2: They're running back? Correct? 567 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, because they're they're closer to you and you can 568 00:31:58,640 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 4: get the ball to them faster. 569 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 6: Let's just say it out loud. This is not unique 570 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 6: to the NFL. The Steelers have had multiple games like 571 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 6: that this year with that offense. 572 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 4: Yeah. Because their arm is old too. Yep, not that old, 573 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 4: but not stretching it. No, dust is dust. 574 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 3: It's kind of the most fun guy ever to do 575 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 3: this too, because it's like I loved his answer.

That's both 675 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 3: on and off the field, and that's why Haleyon and 676 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 3: US Soccer are launching for the Assist, a celebration of 677 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:18,399 Speaker 3: everyday acts of support that helped people to achieve their 678 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 3: goals with iconic brands like Censin, nine Thoms, voltairean Advil, 679 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 3: and Centrum. To learn more, go to Haley onassist dot com. 680 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 3: I just texted with a friend of mine who's an 681 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:32,280 Speaker 3: orthopedic surgeon and asked, does Mahomes play at the start 682 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 3: of next season? And his answer was, QB's typically land 683 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 3: around ten months after surgery, so he could potentially be 684 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 3: back by week one, although my math and his math 685 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 3: might be different, because I think week one is less 686 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 3: than ten months away from right now, maybe ten months 687 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,839 Speaker 3: ish nine and a half. But he also says if 688 00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 3: he as any other ligament injuries or moniscus tears, that 689 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 3: could push things back another month. The good news is 690 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 3: quarterbacks do really well performance wise coming off ACL surgery, 691 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 3: much different than wide receivers, running backs, and defensive linemen 692 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 3: like Micah Parsons. 693 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a chance that he'll be ready at some 694 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 4: point during the season, but I'm willing to go out 695 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,360 Speaker 4: on the limb and be like, not at the beginning, 696 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 4: we don't know the extent of the injury yet, and 697 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 4: no we don't. They'll be able to do that after 698 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 4: the MRI and then we'll figure out when he actually 699 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 4: wants to have surgery. If they're swelling, they want to 700 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 4: let the swelling get down a little bit, do some 701 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 4: things to strengthen the quad and the hamstring before surgery 702 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 4: so the muscle doesn't atrophy too much. But there's a 703 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 4: process here. It's not like a break where you can 704 00:38:58,239 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 4: go in and put some pins in and you know 705 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:04,240 Speaker 4: that I'm gonna go have surgery, right Like justin Herbert 706 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 4: broke his hand a week and a half or two 707 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 4: weeks ago, and that next month, that Monday after he 708 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 4: broke his hand, it's a fractious break. You know what 709 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 4: you need to go in you put a pin in boom. 710 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 4: When you're dealing with repairing ligaments, they're different, great, different 711 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 4: situations that you need to take in consideration before you 712 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,919 Speaker 4: hand out a start date. 713 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 2: Yes, correct, Like I. 714 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 3: Mean we sit here on December fourteenth, and as you said, 715 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 3: even if it's all ready to roll, like, he's not 716 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 3: having surgery today. So you got to start the clock 717 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 3: whenever the surgery happened. 718 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 4: Right, And that could be a week. It could be 719 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 4: you know, a couple of days, could be a month. Yeah, 720 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 4: you don't know. 721 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, So this is a this is this 722 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,919 Speaker 3: is a tree shaker for the entire league, no doubt 723 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 3: about it. Not just the Chiefs missing the playoffs, but 724 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 3: the fact that Patrick Homes, if you're just joining us, 725 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 3: has confirmed a torn acl and is at best a 726 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,320 Speaker 3: question mark for the start of next season. 727 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 2: All right, one hour in, lots to do, three things 728 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 2: coming up next on Fox Sports Radio. 729 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 730 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, here we go as we continue Week fifteen National 731 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 3: Football League. And in this particular week, maybe it's just 732 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 3: the time of year. Maybe it's the fact that there 733 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 3: were so many great matchups today it feels like we 734 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 3: need hell eat from like a machete to sift away through. 735 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 2: Everything that needs to be discussed. Today. 736 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 3: We had a forty four year old grandpa played football 737 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 3: today and almost win a game. 738 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 2: We had one of the faces. 739 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 3: Of the league a couple of days ago actually sound 740 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 3: like he was questioning whether or not even wanted to 741 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 3: play again, and he hadn't even turned thirty yet. So 742 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 3: there's that so much more that we need to get to, 743 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 3: and I bet a little bit of it might come 744 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 3: up in what we like to do at this hour 745 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 3: every week, and that is our three things, each of 746 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 3: us go through our top three observations from the entire 747 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 3: week of football and maybe just a little bit beyond. 748 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 2: So let's go ahead and do it. 749 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 3: Fired up, Let's play three things, and as always, I'm 750 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 3: gonna go first, so you can go last. This one's 751 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 3: gonna sound random. Maybe it shouldn't sound random, maybe it 752 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 3: should sound ransom. 753 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 2: Here's what I mean. I don't know about you e 754 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 2: from as a fan football, all sports, it can always 755 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:44,280 Speaker 2: be frustrating. You root for certain teams whatever, if it's fantasy, 756 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 2: you root for certain players, and that's all baked into 757 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 2: the whole cake, which is that root. We get frustrated. 758 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 3: But there is one one kind of play that I 759 00:41:55,880 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 3: find almost unbearable. And thankfully this wasn't my team today. 760 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,280 Speaker 3: But I bet most of you don't know who Latham 761 00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 3: Ransom is. There's a young defensive player for the Carolina Panthers. 762 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 3: And if you saw the end of this game in 763 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 3: New Orleans today, seventeen seventeen tie, less than ten seconds 764 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 3: left to go in the game, and the Saints have 765 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 3: the ball just just barely shy of midfield. The Panthers 766 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 3: go into a kind of a pre event. 767 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:34,239 Speaker 2: Way was right. So the Saints snapped the ball to 768 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 2: their quarterback, their young quarterback, Tyler Shuck, and basically there's 769 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,800 Speaker 2: no pass rush, there's nothing going on in the middle 770 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:40,320 Speaker 2: of the field. 771 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 3: So he just decides, I'm just gonna run him. He's 772 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 3: gonna take off and run right up the middle and 773 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 3: maybe at least get to a spot where we could 774 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 3: try I don't know, fifty five fifty seven yard field 775 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 3: goal something like that. 776 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 2: So he does. So he runs and then he goes 777 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 2: into his quarterback slide and Hansom lays on him what 778 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 2: I would. 779 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 3: Characterize as a hit that would be flagged one hundred 780 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 3: and eleven percent of the time that you do it. 781 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 2: And I just, for the life of. 782 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 3: Me, I need someone who's played to help me understand 783 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 3: how something like that can even happen. It feels like, 784 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,880 Speaker 3: I don't want to sit here and call it this. 785 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 3: It feels like the most brainless thing that can happen 786 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 3: on a field, something so obvious. 787 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 2: It hands the Saints fifteen yards. 788 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 3: They kick the ball easily through the upright, They win 789 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:42,399 Speaker 3: the football game, and the Panthers' chances to take over 790 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 3: first place in the NFC South go flying through those 791 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 3: two yellow uprights. Crazy to me. And if I were 792 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 3: a Panther fan, if I were Steph Curry tonight, I 793 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,280 Speaker 3: don't know if I'd be able to handle that play. Wow, 794 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 3: that was tough one to watch. 795 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just number one, And shame on the defensive 796 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 4: coordinator for calling whatever that defense was. The reason Schuck 797 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 4: took off and ram was. There was no one there. 798 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 4: I'm talking about, no detackle, no linebacker, no one in 799 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 4: a situation where you know they need as many yards 800 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 4: as possible. It wasn't even about trying to get the 801 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 4: first down. It was cover the center at least. And 802 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 4: so it was a situation where he caught the defense 803 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,879 Speaker 4: off guard and this young man panicked because he saw 804 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:38,359 Speaker 4: him running unabated down the middle of the field and 805 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 4: completely brainwhift on him taking a slide and him not 806 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 4: hitting him. So shame on the defense and that was called. 807 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 4: It was just a bad look all the way around. Obviously, 808 00:44:56,520 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 4: we still were trying to figure out who the Carolina 809 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:05,360 Speaker 4: Panthers were, and they had an opportunity to solidify themselves 810 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,399 Speaker 4: as put themselves in position to win the division. They 811 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:13,759 Speaker 4: don't want it, so We're back at where we were 812 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 4: prior to the game. Who are they and when does 813 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 4: that other shoe fall off for them? This was a 814 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 4: perfect opportunity with Tampa Big losing for them to come 815 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 4: out of that division or out of that game leading 816 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 4: the division with three games left. Yep, yeah, just unbelievable. 817 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,759 Speaker 3: And now with no teams having a winning record in 818 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:36,600 Speaker 3: that division. So the third or fourth year in a row, 819 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 3: and you and I can do this later today, you 820 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 3: and I can have yet another conversation about whether or 821 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,319 Speaker 3: not the playoffs structure should be the way it is. 822 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 3: Three double digit win teams in the NFC West, A 823 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 3: couple of them are going to have to travel, and 824 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,359 Speaker 3: one of them is going to travel to whoever wins 825 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 3: that stupid NFC South and they'll be favored by the way, 826 00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,279 Speaker 3: and they'll be on the road, and we can yell 827 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:00,919 Speaker 3: about that for third fourth year. 828 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 4: In row, you had football all the way around. Man 829 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 4: minus I'm gonna talk about the the Cincinnati Bengals. We 830 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 4: all heard Joe Burrow and his sound last week. But 831 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 4: he's not having fun and he doesn't want to do this, 832 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 4: or he doesn't want to do it. If he's not 833 00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 4: having fun.

When it comes to his relationship with 838 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:42,880 Speaker 4: the Cincinnati Bengals, I don't think he's they survived this season. 839 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 4: I don't think now. I think he wants out and 840 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,399 Speaker 4: I think he wants out now now. 841 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,319 Speaker 2: Just to toss in there and I'm with you. 842 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:58,239 Speaker 3: He did clarify air quotes after the game today and 843 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 3: said that that those comments were not about Cincinnati or 844 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 3: the back. 845 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:08,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, anyway, go ahead, right, especially coming off this 846 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:15,759 Speaker 4: game zero points, through the ball forty times almost for 847 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 4: twenty five yards, two interceptions, no touchdowns. It just it's 848 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 4: one of those situations where you just feel like, why 849 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 4: do I have to show up to work? Watching this 850 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 4: team play against the Baltimore team that's not very good 851 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:40,440 Speaker 4: with the Lamar Jackson, who there is a clone of 852 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:45,760 Speaker 4: the Lamar Jackson were used to seeing. They just showed 853 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 4: they didn't show up at all, and it was hard 854 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 4: to watch, especially the caliber of quarterback Joe burrow Is 855 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 4: and the offensive weapons they have. It's a bad look. 856 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 4: And I think this is the beginning of the end 857 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 4: for their relationship. 858 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:04,319 Speaker 3: I'll just add it loops right into my number two 859 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,320 Speaker 3: because it was going to also be about Joe Burrow, 860 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:08,799 Speaker 3: and before we go any deeper. 861 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 2: Into it, we should let everybody here if they happen 862 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 2: to miss it. 863 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:15,760 Speaker 3: Earlier this week, a couple of pieces of the press 864 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 3: conference that happened, by the way, on his twenty ninth birthday. 865 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,720 Speaker 3: This was on Wednesday. Take a listen to Joe Burrow 866 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 3: talking about fun. 867 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 2: I don't want to keep doing this. 868 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 1: I have to have fun doing it. 869 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 2: You know, I've been through a lot, and if it's 870 00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:33,359 Speaker 2: not fun, then what am I doing it for? You see, 871 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 2: like through something on your mind. 872 00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 1: There's just a lot of things going on right now. 873 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 2: A lot of things going on right now, all related personally. 874 00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:46,360 Speaker 2: I'll do both. Okay, So listen. 875 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 3: I'm not one who comes down athletes roads because oh 876 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:53,400 Speaker 3: they make a lot of money, and I don't want 877 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:56,919 Speaker 3: to hear you complain like life is hard no matter 878 00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 3: how much money you make. 879 00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 2: It can be. 880 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,800 Speaker 3: But Joe, also to your point, Ephrom, I really think 881 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 3: needs to kind of get in touch with something here, 882 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 3: because when you say we get it, man, he's been 883 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:11,840 Speaker 3: through some crazy injuries. 884 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 2: And that's tough. It absolutely is. But when you talk 885 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 2: about I'm not having fun and I've been through a lot, 886 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 2: and you make fifty five million dollars a year and 887 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 2: then you come out the following week, five days later 888 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 2: and you score zero points, it's just not going to 889 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 2: land well with the world. And I'm with you, Eve, 890 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 2: I don't. 891 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 3: Believe him when he says this is not about Cincinnati. 892 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 3: To me, this absolutely is about something that had you 893 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:49,600 Speaker 3: and I going crazy earlier this offseason. And no quarterback 894 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 3: would ever say it, because every quarterback wants great weapons. 895 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 3: But this is easily the most poorly constructed football team 896 00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 3: in the NFL, And will go, wait, the Bengals, what 897 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:01,919 Speaker 3: do you wait? 898 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,400 Speaker 2: What do you mean? What about the Raiders? 899 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:08,360 Speaker 3: What about the Yet those teams don't have Joe Burrow. 900 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 3: If you have Joe Burrow and you keep missing the 901 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:19,360 Speaker 3: playoffs and you can't even get on the same page, 902 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:24,919 Speaker 3: and your best defensive player is the one who gets disenfranchised, 903 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 3: all offseason turns into a high level showdown and it 904 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 3: bleeds into the season. 905 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:37,879 Speaker 2: But you had no problem back in April spending over 906 00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 2: seventy million. 907 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 3: A year in one day on two wide receivers, but 908 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:47,400 Speaker 3: you have no offensive line, none, you have no defense. 909 00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 3: You won't pay any of your defensive players. This is 910 00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:56,879 Speaker 3: literally I'm sorry. The Bengals are playing fantasy football while 911 00:50:56,920 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 3: the rest of the league is playing real football. The 912 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,799 Speaker 3: Bengals are wonderful for us because we love to boy, 913 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 3: we love to draft them. But what a stupid, stupid 914 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:08,399 Speaker 3: football team. 915 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:14,759 Speaker 4: It's unbelievable and it's tough to watch. Just watching the 916 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:19,839 Speaker 4: neptness of that was a tough game to watch. And 917 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,960 Speaker 4: like I said, it's not like Baltimore is the Baltimore 918 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:27,320 Speaker 4: we've seen in the past, and you can't muster anything 919 00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 4: up offensively, you can't stop them defensively. It just was was. 920 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:36,560 Speaker 4: It was a difficult watch and it's going to be 921 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 4: interesting to see how this thing plays out with the 922 00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 4: relationship between Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals. 923 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,759 Speaker 2: No doubt, no doubt, fire Away, you're number two? 924 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, my number two? Where was it? It was my 925 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:57,719 Speaker 4: number two? Man? What did I have it? I lost it? 926 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:03,759 Speaker 4: You got me talking all about the I'm really oh, 927 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:08,719 Speaker 4: I got it? Sorry, I'm on ah. I'm on a 928 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:17,560 Speaker 4: negative rampage right now, So that's fine. Just watching watching 929 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:20,960 Speaker 4: teams come out and try to compete no matter what 930 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 4: your circumstances are. That's why it was so hard on 931 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 4: the Bengals, because it just they just weren't competing. I 932 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 4: maybe one of the few people who watched the Bears 933 00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 4: Browns game, and the disconnect between what's happening on the 934 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:45,720 Speaker 4: field and the sideline, especially offensively, it's just too much. 935 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:50,800 Speaker 4: It's too much. I mean, they're starting drives, they're coming 936 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 4: out of the quarter to the top of the quarter 937 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:59,840 Speaker 4: after a long time out to start the second quarter, 938 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 4: and you get a penalty, a delay of game penalty. 939 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:09,439 Speaker 4: The plays aren't being called in you know how many 940 00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:13,360 Speaker 4: times they started first and fifteen or first and twenty 941 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 4: in this game. And I'm thinking, I'm like, huh, Who's 942 00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 4: to blame here? Is it the head coach, the offensive coordinator, 943 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 4: the quarterback. Like I'm trying to figure out where the 944 00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:31,880 Speaker 4: disconnect is and where the problem is. When I'm watching 945 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 4: the Cleveland Browns, it's tough to watch. Shoudu Or had 946 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:43,439 Speaker 4: an awful game three interceptions, but he wasn't helped by 947 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:45,160 Speaker 4: any stretch of the imagination. 948 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,359 Speaker 2: He really wasn't that bad. If you watched him. 949 00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:51,800 Speaker 4: Right, and so I'm like, wow, there isn't a position 950 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 4: where are you trying to help the quarterback? Are you 951 00:53:57,200 --> 00:54:00,279 Speaker 4: trying to help the team? Are you just like, it 952 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 4: is what it is. We're going to try to get 953 00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:05,520 Speaker 4: one of the top two picks in the draft and 954 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:08,000 Speaker 4: and start over at the quarterback position, because that's what 955 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:11,239 Speaker 4: it's starting to feel like. Just watching them go out 956 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 4: and not be prepared to compete very difficult to watch. 957 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:20,480 Speaker 3: It's a lot of rookies on the field. And to 958 00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:23,680 Speaker 3: your point, I mean, you spent some time on our 959 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 3: show last week feeling like you had had enough of 960 00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 3: the coaching staff of the Cleveland. 961 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,760 Speaker 2: And I know you're not alone. I know you're not alone. 962 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 4: It's too much, man, I can't take it because as 963 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:43,239 Speaker 4: a former player, I know how much goes into preparing, 964 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 4: especially offensively during the week. I know how much you 965 00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:53,320 Speaker 4: have to do to be ready for any situation that 966 00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 4: comes up in a game. And to watch them consistently 967 00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,759 Speaker 4: not be ready, I don't know, man. It's a head 968 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:04,640 Speaker 4: scratcher for me. Yep, and I'm propelled ilex. 969 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,040 Speaker 3: There were a few games today where you can see 970 00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 3: certain teams that have just totally decided that's a bad 971 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,359 Speaker 3: enough And there are three that I'm pointing to, And yes, 972 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:19,320 Speaker 3: the Cleveland Browns were absolutely one of them. Easy walk 973 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:21,879 Speaker 3: in touchdown by the way for JJ McCarthy. This game 974 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:25,319 Speaker 3: is going to be retied, extra point pending, but right now, 975 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:28,839 Speaker 3: fourteen thirteen extra point on the way in this game 976 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 3: in Dallas. 977 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:31,239 Speaker 2: But yes, the Cleveland Browns were one of them. 978 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 3: The Las Vegas Raiders were another, and the New York 979 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 3: Jets were the third. Trevor Lawrence had the absolute day 980 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,959 Speaker 3: of his life. And we're going to have a week 981 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 3: of like, ooh, the ten wins. Maybe Trevor Lawrence is 982 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:48,720 Speaker 3: finally coming to his own watch him go to Denver 983 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:53,160 Speaker 3: next week and watch what happens. That one was. 984 00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 2: A team that just wasn't even there. 985 00:55:56,760 --> 00:56:00,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I very I barely watch watch that game. 986 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 4: I just wanted to move on with life. So, you know, Jacksonville, 987 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,040 Speaker 4: and I'm gonna take my hat off to him. I'm 988 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 4: not convinced. And I'm not a Jacksonville fan or Trevor 989 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 4: Lawrence fan. 990 00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 2: Uh. 991 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:16,440 Speaker 4: And I played, I played for the Jaguars. It just 992 00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 4: I'm not sold. I'm not sold. And so We'll see 993 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 4: how this thing finishes. Right now, they're they're leading the division. 994 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:28,319 Speaker 4: Pretty tough division. Uh, And so we'll see how this 995 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 4: thing plays out for him. Other than that, you know, 996 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:34,000 Speaker 4: it's just a tough watch for me. 997 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:38,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, those games were pretty cringey. All right, quickly, last 998 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:38,960 Speaker 3: one for me. 999 00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 2: Uh. 1000 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:41,680 Speaker 3: Do you remember a couple of weeks ago when I 1001 00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:44,799 Speaker 3: was like, you know, outside of his injury, city Lamb 1002 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 3: has put up some pretty decent numbers this year. But boy, 1003 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:50,799 Speaker 3: he's having a bad year. Let me hand that to 1004 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 3: another wide receiver. I don't know how much of that 1005 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 3: hard to watch Bengals Ravens game you actually took in. 1006 00:56:57,840 --> 00:56:58,839 Speaker 4: I watched the whole thing. 1007 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 3: Flowers has been an absolute negative for Lamar Jackson this year. 1008 00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 2: Now, he caught. 1009 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:08,520 Speaker 3: Three balls for sixty eight yards and a touchdown. If 1010 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,800 Speaker 3: he started you, if he started him in fantasy, yay 1011 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 3: you zay. Flowers has dropped so many balls this year. 1012 00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:21,000 Speaker 3: He has misplayed so many balls this year. He was 1013 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 3: only targeted five times. He had those three catches. Would 1014 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:25,760 Speaker 3: you like to know what happened on the other two? Yes, 1015 00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 3: one of them was a dropped touchdown and the other 1016 00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 3: one bounced off of his big four on his chest 1017 00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:33,480 Speaker 3: and was picked off by the other team. And it's 1018 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 3: all going to be totally swept under because the Ravens 1019 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:40,400 Speaker 3: win by twenty four points. I don't know what it 1020 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:44,920 Speaker 3: is about that team and wide receivers. They only attempted 1021 00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 3: twelve passes today as a team, I guess they didn't 1022 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 3: need to. But Zay Flowers, even going back to the 1023 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 3: fumble at the one in the AFC title game, man, 1024 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 3: I just I'm not sure. He's a young player. He's 1025 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 3: flashed at times. I'm not sure what to do with 1026 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:04,479 Speaker 3: him right now because he is not helping his football team. 1027 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:07,520 Speaker 4: No, he's not. He's another one of those problems that 1028 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:11,960 Speaker 4: Lamar's not playing well. He's not playing well, they're not 1029 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 4: running the ball well, and defensively, they're just you know, 1030 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 4: exposing themselves to you know, play big plays down the field. 1031 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:23,640 Speaker 4: Didn't happen today, even though Jamar Chase had a heck 1032 00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:28,120 Speaker 4: of a day, no touchdowns, no points allowed. That helps 1033 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 4: that Baltimore Ravens team. But there's there's this like bizarro world. 1034 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 4: But guess what, hey, man, the way it's shaken out, 1035 00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:38,040 Speaker 4: they'll have plenty of time this offseason to work on 1036 00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:40,960 Speaker 4: some things because teams are playing like they don't want 1037 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,920 Speaker 4: to make the playoffs, and that's a head scratcher for me. 1038 00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:46,840 Speaker 4: My third one, let's go to the NBA and shout 1039 00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 4: out to the San Antonio Spurs for beating the twenty 1040 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 4: at the time twenty four and one OKC Thunder and 1041 00:58:55,680 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 4: the Emirates Cup semi finals. Victor woman Yamba had it's 1042 00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 4: I guess about seven eight games with a CAF strain, 1043 00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:07,160 Speaker 4: and he came back and played twenty one minutes and 1044 00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 4: had a heck of a game. Watching Victor play against 1045 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:13,439 Speaker 4: a team like OKC, that's must see TV. 1046 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 2: Yep. 1047 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 4: It was such a great game. And I mean they 1048 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 4: won by two, that's how intense that was. And you 1049 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 4: literally have two unguardable forces on the court, one in 1050 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 4: Victor and the other one in Shay Guildris for OKC, 1051 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,960 Speaker 4: and it was a masterful back and forth. And it 1052 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 4: wasn't a like one fifty to one forty nine. It 1053 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 4: was nothing like that. It was a defensive battle, but 1054 00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:44,360 Speaker 4: sprinkled in with some dynamic and unbelievable offensive plays by 1055 00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 4: Victor and uh Shay. And look, OKAC was at full strength. 1056 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 4: They had everybody healthy, everybody participated, and if that's the 1057 00:59:56,360 --> 01:00:00,480 Speaker 4: Western Conference Finals coming down to pipe, then we're going 1058 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 4: to be blessed with one heck of a seven game series. 1059 01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:09,959 Speaker 2: Yep, that was a very very good watch. And O case, 1060 01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 2: he's got to be careful. 1061 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 3: This is word to the wise this whole like, we 1062 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 3: really want that seventy four win record.

I just don't 1097 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:12,720 Speaker 4: think he has faith and confidence in the organization to 1098 01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 4: put the necessary people in place. I mean, Joe Burrow 1099 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 4: is hands down the top five quarterback in the NFL, 1100 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 4: no doubt, no one will doubt no one will ever 1101 01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 4: know it.

Well, two things actually already people 1217 01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:10,400 Speaker 6: are looking at the draft order for April. The Giants 1218 01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:13,759 Speaker 6: are two and twelve, the Raiders are two and twelve, 1219 01:09:14,600 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 6: and the Titans are two and twelve. 1220 01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:17,520 Speaker 2: Oh Burner. 1221 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:20,760 Speaker 6: At the end of this month, the Raiders will be 1222 01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:25,080 Speaker 6: hosting the Giants, perhaps with the number one draft pick 1223 01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:28,240 Speaker 6: on the line. And you know, we've seen what the 1224 01:09:28,320 --> 01:09:31,439 Speaker 6: Raiders have had at quarterback for the last twenty years. 1225 01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:34,280 Speaker 6: I'm tempted to say, but the college football Playoff also 1226 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:37,280 Speaker 6: starts this Friday. It's going to be Alabama at Oklahoma. 1227 01:09:37,320 --> 01:09:40,160 Speaker 6: And there are three games this Saturday, including Miami at 1228 01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:42,519 Speaker 6: Texas A and M. I bring this up because there 1229 01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:45,240 Speaker 6: are two playoff games that they farmed out to TNT 1230 01:09:45,560 --> 01:09:49,920 Speaker 6: for this Saturday, Tulane at Ole Miss and James Madison 1231 01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:54,439 Speaker 6: at Oregon. On top of that, those two games are 1232 01:09:54,479 --> 01:10:01,080 Speaker 6: going up against two NFL broadcasts on Fox TV this Saturday. 1233 01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 6: Fox will have Philadelphia at Washington and then the Packers 1234 01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:08,960 Speaker 6: at Bear's rematch Saturday nights Fox TV. 1235 01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:13,400 Speaker 3: Back to you, that sounds like a pretty easy choice 1236 01:10:13,400 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 3: to me. 1237 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:17,040 Speaker 2: I don't know about the first one. 1238 01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:19,519 Speaker 3: You know what, though, since we're on this, I like, 1239 01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:21,800 Speaker 3: I don't know where you two stand on it. I 1240 01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:30,080 Speaker 3: defend the idea of James Madison and Tulane being in this. 1241 01:10:30,479 --> 01:10:32,840 Speaker 3: I'm with all of you. I think they're going to 1242 01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:37,320 Speaker 3: get their doors blown off. I really, I'm with you. 1243 01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:44,519 Speaker 3: But that fits within the script that has been written. 1244 01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:47,559 Speaker 3: And that's what I don't mind. You know what I mean. 1245 01:10:47,640 --> 01:10:51,160 Speaker 3: You're also if you're an NFL fan somehow, you're telling 1246 01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:54,240 Speaker 3: me that Tampa or Carolina is going to host a playoff. 1247 01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:55,720 Speaker 6: Game because they're a division winner. 1248 01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:57,320 Speaker 4: Right are you? 1249 01:10:57,320 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 2: You won something? 1250 01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:01,599 Speaker 6: And I like the fact that has what you referred to, 1251 01:11:02,080 --> 01:11:04,880 Speaker 6: one of the so called its smaller conferences gets its 1252 01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:08,800 Speaker 6: champion in so once we crown a national champion, it's 1253 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:11,599 Speaker 6: not just the champs of these two conferences, it's the 1254 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:14,719 Speaker 6: national champion. This is one of the things I love 1255 01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:16,920 Speaker 6: about the World Cup. When we saw the draw, we 1256 01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:19,400 Speaker 6: could go for the World Cup. I think every four 1257 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:23,800 Speaker 6: years people realize literally every country in the world has 1258 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 6: playoff games to try and get in the World Cup. 1259 01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:31,280 Speaker 6: I mean, Liechtenstein is playing to Faroe Islands and all 1260 01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:35,320 Speaker 6: these Haiti is actually in these places you've never heard of. 1261 01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,840 Speaker 6: Everybody has a chance two hundred plus countries. 1262 01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,080 Speaker 3: Like what happens in the month of March. And I 1263 01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:43,800 Speaker 3: know it doesn't feel that way, but it is that 1264 01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:47,760 Speaker 3: way that like North Carolina A and T gets to 1265 01:11:47,800 --> 01:11:51,200 Speaker 3: actually play North Carolina in the first round of the 1266 01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:52,959 Speaker 3: championship tournament. 1267 01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:56,240 Speaker 2: So this is fundamental to me to all sport. 1268 01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:58,799 Speaker 3: If you want to be mad at something about college football, 1269 01:11:58,880 --> 01:12:01,880 Speaker 3: it's what I said last week. Be mad that people 1270 01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:04,720 Speaker 3: go into a room talk about their finances and come 1271 01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:08,800 Speaker 3: out and say that Alabama's in. That's that's your problem, 1272 01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:10,679 Speaker 3: not James Madison in Tulane. 1273 01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:11,799 Speaker 2: That's just my opinion. 1274 01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:19,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean right, being mad at at Tulane and 1275 01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:23,600 Speaker 4: James Madison for doing what they were supposed to do. 1276 01:12:25,880 --> 01:12:28,800 Speaker 4: I mean those are both one loss teams. Alabama has 1277 01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 4: three losses and I don't care who they lost to. 1278 01:12:31,800 --> 01:12:34,400 Speaker 4: It's hard to make a case for a three loss team, 1279 01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:39,400 Speaker 4: especially if they didn't win the conference championship, So I 1280 01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:44,479 Speaker 4: don't you know, they're not the problem. Look, hey, maybe 1281 01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:46,719 Speaker 4: we get a little bit of march madness. A little 1282 01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 4: bit harder to do in football. I mean, you never know, 1283 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:53,880 Speaker 4: but you never know, right, and you never know. And 1284 01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:57,920 Speaker 4: we're gonna see if they're to be taken serious or not. 1285 01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 4: We gonna find out, and I'm all for it. I 1286 01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:05,719 Speaker 4: won't be watching him because I'd be watching the NFL games, 1287 01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:07,240 Speaker 4: but Bears and Pilers. 1288 01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:12,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, apparently Oregon is favored by three touchdowns James. 1289 01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:13,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, that makes sense. 1290 01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:16,160 Speaker 3: I have I have a buddy who went to Oregon 1291 01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:21,240 Speaker 3: and was considering not traveling up up there to to 1292 01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:25,000 Speaker 3: watch this football game because it was just gonna be, 1293 01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:29,680 Speaker 3: you know, it's gonna be an absolute, uh runaway. So 1294 01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:32,640 Speaker 3: he's like, why why spend the money to go do it? 1295 01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:34,160 Speaker 3: It changed his mind. He's gonna go do it. 1296 01:13:34,200 --> 01:13:34,880 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, of course. 1297 01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:38,000 Speaker 3: But but but anyway, I'm like, yeah, there's a lot 1298 01:13:38,040 --> 01:13:38,840 Speaker 3: of sports like that. 1299 01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:40,040 Speaker 2: You know. 1300 01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:43,280 Speaker 3: Did you buy a ticket to the Niner Titan game today? 1301 01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:44,920 Speaker 3: I could have told you how that was going to go, 1302 01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:49,200 Speaker 3: or or or so many of the the Eagles Raiders game. 1303 01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:52,639 Speaker 3: Did you go like, oh my God, the Eagles Raiders 1304 01:13:52,680 --> 01:13:58,960 Speaker 3: game terrible anyway, much more to get to on all this. 1305 01:13:59,680 --> 01:14:03,719 Speaker 3: Speaking of the Nighters, Steve was talking about Brock Perdy's 1306 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:04,559 Speaker 3: performance today. 1307 01:14:04,640 --> 01:14:06,920 Speaker 2: I want to throw something at you on that one. 1308 01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:10,200 Speaker 3: We're live in the Fox Sports Radio studios with you 1309 01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 3: from Salama, Mark Ward. 1310 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:14,880 Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Radio.

Now. 1312 01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:23,400 Speaker 3: I'm just gonna use Shady McCoy as an example, just 1313 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:28,559 Speaker 3: because he's got a platform and he's a big name, 1314 01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:33,880 Speaker 3: so therefore, in a way it's a compliment because he's 1315 01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:37,200 Speaker 3: not alone. I heard people all over the country and 1316 01:14:37,320 --> 01:14:41,599 Speaker 3: certainly where I live, saying this four or five weeks ago, 1317 01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 3: so be accountable. It's fine. All of us are wrong 1318 01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:49,679 Speaker 3: sometimes all of us and it's just sports, so it's 1319 01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:54,439 Speaker 3: not that big of a deal. But good lord, take 1320 01:14:54,479 --> 01:14:57,439 Speaker 3: a lap. If you were one of these people that 1321 01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:00,679 Speaker 3: was like, I think we should stick with my Jones, 1322 01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:08,960 Speaker 3: take a lap. I can't stand when people do the 1323 01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:12,400 Speaker 3: out of sight, out of mind thing and you just 1324 01:15:12,520 --> 01:15:15,040 Speaker 3: forget you forget, you forget. 1325 01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:19,880 Speaker 2: Who has achieved things in whatever portion of life we're 1326 01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:20,639 Speaker 2: talking about. 1327 01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:25,479 Speaker 3: You forget the aspects and special things that certain people 1328 01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:30,160 Speaker 3: bring to the table in whatever they do. Now, I'm 1329 01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:33,120 Speaker 3: big enough to admit that the last four opponents in 1330 01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:36,000 Speaker 3: the forty nine Ers four game win streak are not 1331 01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:37,000 Speaker 3: necessarily the. 1332 01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:38,840 Speaker 2: Most special football teams out there. 1333 01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:42,400 Speaker 3: I get that, but love talking to you about it, Ephrom, 1334 01:15:42,439 --> 01:15:44,760 Speaker 3: because you actually watched the games and if you saw 1335 01:15:44,880 --> 01:15:50,519 Speaker 3: brock Perty's performance today, today was the day that for 1336 01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:55,200 Speaker 3: the first time, I was like, ooh, that foot is 1337 01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 3: all good to go. 1338 01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:00,000 Speaker 2: He was absolutely. 1339 01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:03,559 Speaker 3: With his feet today, not just with the forty four 1340 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:07,479 Speaker 3: yards rushing on the ground, but buying more time. Never 1341 01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:10,719 Speaker 3: turned the ball over twenty three to thirty two hundred 1342 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:14,559 Speaker 3: and ninety five yards, three touchdown throws, no picks, no 1343 01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:20,040 Speaker 3: almost picks, no nothing. Now, he lost a fumble at 1344 01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:23,439 Speaker 3: one point, which was a batted ball as his arm was. 1345 01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:27,000 Speaker 2: Kind of coming forward. Close call, but that. 1346 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:29,280 Speaker 3: Doesn't really have much to do with the way he 1347 01:16:29,360 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 3: was delivering the ball out there. 1348 01:16:31,400 --> 01:16:35,400 Speaker 2: And like, all you got to do is take a look. 1349 01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:41,960 Speaker 3: At the forty nine ers point output since he returned. 1350 01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:45,639 Speaker 3: He went into a frigid Cleveland and put up twenty 1351 01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:50,519 Speaker 3: six points there, thirty seven today, forty one. In his 1352 01:16:50,560 --> 01:16:54,360 Speaker 3: first game back at Arizona the number of times that 1353 01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 3: the forty nine ers had scored thirty points or more 1354 01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:02,840 Speaker 3: so far this season before that was once once. 1355 01:17:04,000 --> 01:17:07,040 Speaker 2: So mac Jones did a wonderful. 1356 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:09,559 Speaker 3: Job being a backup quarterback and coming in and winning 1357 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:12,120 Speaker 3: five games for the forty nine ers, and he deserves 1358 01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:14,439 Speaker 3: a ploque in the Hall because he saved their season. 1359 01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:18,920 Speaker 3: Yeah he did, But my god, the Niners should stick 1360 01:17:18,960 --> 01:17:21,320 Speaker 3: with mac Jones. Seriously, dude, take a lap. 1361 01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:28,880 Speaker 4: Well, I mean we watched the Brock party hate PERMEI 1362 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:34,599 Speaker 4: eate since he got the start. I mean, no one 1363 01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:38,280 Speaker 4: wanted to give him credit. Right, it was always everything else, 1364 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:42,599 Speaker 4: but no one wanted to give him credit. And so 1365 01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:45,639 Speaker 4: when they paid him, one of the first things were, 1366 01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:53,439 Speaker 4: well you overpaid him. I mean I wouldn't say so. 1367 01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:55,920 Speaker 4: I mean, if you've only gone to a super Bowl 1368 01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:59,360 Speaker 4: and played in an NFC Championship in his two years 1369 01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:03,439 Speaker 4: as a star, you were decimated by injuries. Last year, 1370 01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:05,880 Speaker 4: they didn't make the playoffs. 1371 01:18:05,439 --> 01:18:07,640 Speaker 2: And their defense was trash. 1372 01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:12,280 Speaker 4: Right, this year is a completely different situation. Now you 1373 01:18:12,320 --> 01:18:15,519 Speaker 4: were helped with their strength of schedule based on the 1374 01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:18,599 Speaker 4: way you finished last year, no doubt, and when he's healthy, 1375 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:22,320 Speaker 4: it's a different offense. Mac Jones did a yeoman's job 1376 01:18:22,880 --> 01:18:27,120 Speaker 4: and he may have gotten himself an ability to start 1377 01:18:27,160 --> 01:18:29,720 Speaker 4: somewhere else from what he did. That's the job of 1378 01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:34,200 Speaker 4: a backup quarterback. Can you reintroduce people to the value 1379 01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 4: that you bring. And I think he did that. I 1380 01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:40,680 Speaker 4: think he did well. But Brock Party is the starting quarterback, 1381 01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:45,800 Speaker 4: and the offense looks different when Brock Purdy is the 1382 01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 4: starting quarterback for the San Francisco forty nine ers. And 1383 01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:54,400 Speaker 4: he showed you the wheels, yep. So you know, I've 1384 01:18:54,479 --> 01:18:57,360 Speaker 4: always been a Brock Party fan because he's a seventh 1385 01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:01,200 Speaker 4: rounder and he made good on and showing up and 1386 01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:05,160 Speaker 4: showing out, and so I'm always for my late round 1387 01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:08,519 Speaker 4: guys proving to people. And like I always said, if 1388 01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:11,200 Speaker 4: Brock Perty was a first round draft pick, we wouldn't 1389 01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:13,880 Speaker 4: even be having these conversations. We wouldn't have talked about 1390 01:19:14,120 --> 01:19:17,360 Speaker 4: him being overpaid, none of those things. He would have 1391 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 4: been playing as he should have been as a first 1392 01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:22,280 Speaker 4: round draft pick. But because he was the last pick 1393 01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:25,360 Speaker 4: in the draft, everybody was like, well, it can't be him. 1394 01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:30,160 Speaker 4: He can't be that good because no one drafted him 1395 01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:34,599 Speaker 4: over and over and over again. But look at Tom Brady. 1396 01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:36,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, and here we are. 1397 01:19:36,520 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 3: It'll get interesting now at Indie next Monday. Then they 1398 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:42,080 Speaker 3: host Chicago and Seattle on the way out, so it's 1399 01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:45,120 Speaker 3: definitely going to be interesting. But ten and four after 1400 01:19:45,160 --> 01:19:47,880 Speaker 3: their fourth winning a row today, we'll get to Travis 1401 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 3: kelce coming up next. 1402 01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:52,679 Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio. 1403 01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:55,200 Speaker 2: It's a whole new world. 1404 01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:57,880 Speaker 3: It's a world that does not include the Chiefs, and 1405 01:19:57,960 --> 01:20:00,599 Speaker 3: for now, at least for the rest of this season 1406 01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 3: and possibly the start of next season as well, the 1407 01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:09,200 Speaker 3: NFL landscape does not include one Patrick Mahomes. We're broadcasting 1408 01:20:09,240 --> 01:20:12,479 Speaker 3: live from the Fox Sports Radio studios with all kinds 1409 01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:13,320 Speaker 3: of things to get to. 1410 01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:15,920 Speaker 2: What do we do with the NFC. 1411 01:20:15,600 --> 01:20:20,600 Speaker 3: South, How do the New York Giants get Jackson Dart 1412 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:23,240 Speaker 3: to understand their message? 1413 01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:24,320 Speaker 2: How do we do that? 1414 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,200 Speaker 3: And what does what I was just talking about with 1415 01:20:27,240 --> 01:20:30,040 Speaker 3: regard to the Chiefs, what does that mean for some 1416 01:20:30,080 --> 01:20:36,880 Speaker 3: of the players around him, namely Travis kelcey. And I 1417 01:20:36,880 --> 01:20:40,000 Speaker 3: got to admit this from first of all, you deserve 1418 01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:42,240 Speaker 3: your victory lap, and I haven't given it to you yet. 1419 01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:45,120 Speaker 3: I am speaking to a man who said before the 1420 01:20:45,280 --> 01:20:49,960 Speaker 3: year even started that the Chiefs would miss the playoffs 1421 01:20:50,920 --> 01:20:53,200 Speaker 3: before the year even started. 1422 01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:58,280 Speaker 2: Hey nice call, Well, nice call you. 1423 01:20:58,479 --> 01:20:59,040 Speaker 4: I appreciate it. 1424 01:20:59,479 --> 01:21:00,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, way to the crowd. 1425 01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:01,479 Speaker 4: I appreciate that. 1426 01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:02,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1427 01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:07,080 Speaker 3: But I go back to shortly after the Super Bowl 1428 01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:14,719 Speaker 3: loss for the Chiefs last year and Travis Kelcey saying 1429 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:17,479 Speaker 3: I'm not going out like that, and I'm always like 1430 01:21:17,760 --> 01:21:21,679 Speaker 3: fascinated by that, because I'm like, well, first of all, 1431 01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:26,960 Speaker 3: you don't really have a choice. The second of all, 1432 01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:33,800 Speaker 3: I mean, especially when there is something as well known 1433 01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:38,000 Speaker 3: as a Super Bowl hangover for the team that loses it, 1434 01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:41,599 Speaker 3: and in this case, maybe even more so because we're 1435 01:21:41,640 --> 01:21:43,839 Speaker 3: talking about a team that had been to three straight 1436 01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:48,439 Speaker 3: Super Bowls. I'm thinking to myself, Okay, you're you're all 1437 01:21:48,479 --> 01:21:52,200 Speaker 3: going to be a year older. You won so many 1438 01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:55,839 Speaker 3: games this year by like one point and two points, 1439 01:21:55,880 --> 01:21:58,760 Speaker 3: and this lucky break and this thing happened over there, 1440 01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:01,200 Speaker 3: and you just got your doors blown off by the Eagles. 1441 01:22:01,840 --> 01:22:05,400 Speaker 3: What on earth made you think? You know what, if 1442 01:22:05,439 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 3: I played. 1443 01:22:05,920 --> 01:22:08,360 Speaker 4: One more year, it's gonna get better. 1444 01:22:08,439 --> 01:22:09,639 Speaker 2: It's gonna get better. 1445 01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:13,679 Speaker 3: I didn't know it was gonna necessarily be this bad, 1446 01:22:13,720 --> 01:22:17,280 Speaker 3: But there was no way that I thought that this 1447 01:22:17,360 --> 01:22:21,040 Speaker 3: year would go better than last year for the Chiefs. 1448 01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:27,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with that. I just don't. The thing 1449 01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:32,800 Speaker 4: that really is apparent to me is Andy Reid's and 1450 01:22:32,840 --> 01:22:38,280 Speaker 4: the chiefs lack of understanding when it comes to being 1451 01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:40,200 Speaker 4: able to You need to be able to run the 1452 01:22:40,200 --> 01:22:44,200 Speaker 4: ball at some point, like the older your team gets, 1453 01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:47,200 Speaker 4: the less explosive you get in the passing game, which 1454 01:22:47,200 --> 01:22:50,400 Speaker 4: we saw last year. Okay, this is something for the 1455 01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:52,719 Speaker 4: last couple of years have been creeping up on them 1456 01:22:53,760 --> 01:22:58,840 Speaker 4: and not addressing the running game. To me is the 1457 01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:01,960 Speaker 4: biggest thing, because what you do when you want to 1458 01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:08,599 Speaker 4: take pressure off your quarterback, you hand the ball off 1459 01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:13,600 Speaker 4: twenty five times, thirty times yep. In a game you 1460 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:16,960 Speaker 4: get the tough yards. You allow your offensive line that 1461 01:23:17,120 --> 01:23:24,080 Speaker 4: is not proficient in past blocking to be aggressive. At 1462 01:23:24,160 --> 01:23:27,439 Speaker 4: least you could say, all right, put your head down 1463 01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:34,880 Speaker 4: and let's get me three yards. They that's not how 1464 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:37,960 Speaker 4: this team has been made up. Now they're down to 1465 01:23:37,960 --> 01:23:42,680 Speaker 4: two guys who have no business starting yet on their 1466 01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:47,920 Speaker 4: offensive line. Yes, yet everybody isn't Day one come in 1467 01:23:47,960 --> 01:23:50,800 Speaker 4: and ready to go. Some of those young players and 1468 01:23:50,880 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 4: rookies and free agents, they need time. And that's one 1469 01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:03,960 Speaker 4: thing that you know, the Chiefs don't have his time. 1470 01:24:05,680 --> 01:24:09,040 Speaker 4: I mean, this is quite possibly Travis Kelce's last year 1471 01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:17,760 Speaker 4: of playing football. Yep, and it's positive. This isn't how 1472 01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:18,560 Speaker 4: he thought. 1473 01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:22,120 Speaker 2: Right exactly and how I was going to go. I 1474 01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:24,519 Speaker 2: don't want it to feel like any of us are 1475 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:28,160 Speaker 2: dancing on this or whatever, because I actually, I mean 1476 01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:31,680 Speaker 2: both of the Kelsey brothers who have clearly built a 1477 01:24:31,760 --> 01:24:34,599 Speaker 2: post career empire for themselves already. 1478 01:24:35,120 --> 01:24:39,599 Speaker 3: They are engaging. By all accounts, they are super good dudes. 1479 01:24:39,960 --> 01:24:44,400 Speaker 3: Travis is obviously headed for however long it lasts, hopefully forever, 1480 01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:48,840 Speaker 3: is headed for one of the most high profile couplings 1481 01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:51,320 Speaker 3: in all of the country right now, Like all of 1482 01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:53,960 Speaker 3: this stuff is sitting there for them. So I have 1483 01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:56,760 Speaker 3: nothing against Travis kelcey, But when he says I ain't 1484 01:24:56,760 --> 01:24:57,559 Speaker 3: going out like that. 1485 01:24:57,640 --> 01:24:58,439 Speaker 2: Yeah you are. 1486 01:25:00,280 --> 01:25:01,200 Speaker 4: Are?

And you know. 1524 01:27:23,280 --> 01:27:28,240 Speaker 3: From whether it's Andrew Luck, you know, Joe Burrow, Travis Kelsey, 1525 01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:32,799 Speaker 3: Kelsey whoever. Like you know, there's some famous stories throughout 1526 01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:35,920 Speaker 3: the years. Chris Borland was a young player on the 1527 01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:39,400 Speaker 3: defensive side for San Francisco, right, like. 1528 01:27:39,360 --> 01:27:41,639 Speaker 4: Everybody was Patrick Willis. 1529 01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:43,559 Speaker 3: Right that people were excited. It was like, oh, that's 1530 01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:45,720 Speaker 3: a good rookie year. And he was like, so I'm 1531 01:27:45,760 --> 01:27:50,680 Speaker 3: not good at that anymore. Yeah, And I like, I 1532 01:27:50,760 --> 01:27:53,240 Speaker 3: don't know, that doesn't that's to me, that's not a weakness. 1533 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:56,000 Speaker 3: I think that's a really good observation by you, that 1534 01:27:56,160 --> 01:27:57,040 Speaker 3: Travis kelcey. 1535 01:27:57,760 --> 01:28:03,360 Speaker 2: It. Yeah, the whole thing, it just runs its course, 1536 01:28:03,479 --> 01:28:06,519 Speaker 2: like there's yeah, it's so iconic and it's been through 1537 01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:11,120 Speaker 2: so many different generations of itself. You can't you can't 1538 01:28:11,280 --> 01:28:14,479 Speaker 2: have that much joy anymore, and you can't want it 1539 01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:17,400 Speaker 2: as much as all these other teams want it because 1540 01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:22,640 Speaker 2: you've just been sitting there holding it for almost a decade. 1541 01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:26,040 Speaker 4: And and and it's to the point where the only 1542 01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:28,760 Speaker 4: way you you hold on and maintain that is if 1543 01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:31,920 Speaker 4: you got you gotta add new and fresh, young energy 1544 01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 4: into that, right like you gotta you gotta pump in 1545 01:28:39,080 --> 01:28:43,799 Speaker 4: young exuberant players. And not to take anything away from 1546 01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:50,680 Speaker 4: Rashid Rice are worthy, but they don't bring a lot 1547 01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:57,879 Speaker 4: of energy. Now like Tarik Hill brought energy, Travis brought energy. 1548 01:28:58,920 --> 01:29:02,040 Speaker 4: Pacheco wants to bring energy, But those three or four 1549 01:29:02,160 --> 01:29:05,960 Speaker 4: carries did he gets a game? I don't know if 1550 01:29:06,760 --> 01:29:08,240 Speaker 4: that's energy inducing. 1551 01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:12,679 Speaker 2: I really think that you, like this is a good 1552 01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:17,400 Speaker 2: observation on your part to bring up the Chiefs run game. 1553 01:29:18,160 --> 01:29:22,000 Speaker 2: And the fact of the matter is is that I 1554 01:29:22,040 --> 01:29:27,559 Speaker 2: think people forget the circumstances surrounding the Chiefs bringing back 1555 01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:28,320 Speaker 2: Kareem Hunt. 1556 01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:28,920 Speaker 4: Last year. 1557 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:35,320 Speaker 3: They brought Kareem Hunt back because they were out of options. 1558 01:29:36,360 --> 01:29:40,520 Speaker 3: They grabbed him off the street because they had multiple injuries. 1559 01:29:41,800 --> 01:29:44,439 Speaker 3: It was the same circumstances that brought the Colts to 1560 01:29:44,439 --> 01:29:46,000 Speaker 3: Philip Rivers door this week. 1561 01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:49,479 Speaker 2: Just like we're kind of desperate, do you want to play? 1562 01:29:50,360 --> 01:29:53,080 Speaker 3: And then he came in and he's seemingly sort of 1563 01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:55,720 Speaker 3: in a short stint, played well enough to where the 1564 01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:58,320 Speaker 3: Chiefs then just came back this year and went cool. 1565 01:29:58,080 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 4: Sure do that boring? 1566 01:30:01,720 --> 01:30:07,880 Speaker 2: Like really, don't you remember when whoever the Chief's running 1567 01:30:07,920 --> 01:30:09,320 Speaker 2: back was that was a thing. 1568 01:30:10,120 --> 01:30:12,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's you're exactly yes. 1569 01:30:12,600 --> 01:30:15,479 Speaker 3: Fantasy football, you were scared if you had to go 1570 01:30:15,560 --> 01:30:17,240 Speaker 3: up against the Chiefs running back. 1571 01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:19,840 Speaker 2: It's been a long time, man. 1572 01:30:19,880 --> 01:30:23,040 Speaker 4: And I think that that is when you put that 1573 01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:29,000 Speaker 4: much pressure on the shoulders of Patrick Mahomes. And Patrick 1574 01:30:29,080 --> 01:30:32,760 Speaker 4: hasn't looked like himself in two years. He hasn't a 1575 01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:35,360 Speaker 4: lot of injuries with the receivers this year, a lot 1576 01:30:35,439 --> 01:30:38,000 Speaker 4: of that's all kinds of stuff going on, but Patrick 1577 01:30:38,040 --> 01:30:41,400 Speaker 4: hasn't looked like himself. And it could be they're just hired. Yep, 1578 01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:43,559 Speaker 4: they're just hired. 1579 01:30:43,920 --> 01:30:46,200 Speaker 2: Dynasty's way on you after and now. 1580 01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:50,000 Speaker 4: They get plenty of time to rest. And now it's 1581 01:30:50,080 --> 01:30:56,280 Speaker 4: up to Andy reidep and and the front office to 1582 01:30:56,479 --> 01:30:59,759 Speaker 4: really inject some youth and some life and some energy 1583 01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:03,519 Speaker 4: into that roster. There you go and right go, get 1584 01:31:03,520 --> 01:31:06,479 Speaker 4: you a big, nasty, mean offensive lineman that like to 1585 01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:10,080 Speaker 4: talk trash a big tackle who like to talk trash 1586 01:31:10,160 --> 01:31:13,240 Speaker 4: and slam somebody after the play. Like that's the type 1587 01:31:13,240 --> 01:31:14,240 Speaker 4: of stuff you need. Man. 1588 01:31:14,320 --> 01:31:15,920 Speaker 2: An exciting young running back, that. 1589 01:31:16,080 --> 01:31:18,439 Speaker 4: Good running back, someone you can have the ball off 1590 01:31:18,439 --> 01:31:19,840 Speaker 4: to twenty five times a game. 1591 01:31:20,000 --> 01:31:23,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you brought up the Niners schedule earlier. It's 1592 01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:26,120 Speaker 3: gonna be the same thing. The Super Bowl hangover back. 1593 01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:30,400 Speaker 3: The opportunity comes with a present, and that is you 1594 01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:32,240 Speaker 3: get a crappy schedule next. 1595 01:31:32,200 --> 01:31:33,720 Speaker 4: Year, perfect opportunity. 1596 01:31:33,800 --> 01:31:36,240 Speaker 3: You won't be a fourth place schedule because those Raiders 1597 01:31:36,240 --> 01:31:40,200 Speaker 3: are really special, but you will get a third place 1598 01:31:40,280 --> 01:31:44,280 Speaker 3: schedule next year. I mean that's the other part about 1599 01:31:44,320 --> 01:31:48,320 Speaker 3: the Chiefs that when people, quite honestly, it's why I 1600 01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:51,160 Speaker 3: jumped on the board with you about them missing the playoffs, 1601 01:31:51,160 --> 01:31:54,840 Speaker 3: and people don't really look at it, which is obviously 1602 01:31:54,920 --> 01:31:57,000 Speaker 3: the Chargers and Broncos make up a quarter of your 1603 01:31:57,040 --> 01:32:00,639 Speaker 3: schedule just then, but the remainder of what the Chiefs 1604 01:32:00,640 --> 01:32:05,240 Speaker 3: had to do this year from Philadelphia and Detroit and 1605 01:32:06,040 --> 01:32:09,120 Speaker 3: Baltimore back before Lamar got hurt. As it turns out, 1606 01:32:09,160 --> 01:32:12,559 Speaker 3: a trip to Jacksonville was difficult as well. You had 1607 01:32:12,560 --> 01:32:15,640 Speaker 3: to go to Dallas. You're dealing with Houston in Indianapolis, 1608 01:32:16,240 --> 01:32:19,519 Speaker 3: like this was a real and don't forget Buffalo. They 1609 01:32:19,560 --> 01:32:22,920 Speaker 3: had to go to Buffalo better do all of that. 1610 01:32:22,920 --> 01:32:27,280 Speaker 3: That's like, it's hard, you guys. 1611 01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:33,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's time, it's and as good as Patrick Mahomes, 1612 01:32:33,280 --> 01:32:39,519 Speaker 4: it's great as Patrick Mahomes is, even he needs something. Sure, 1613 01:32:39,520 --> 01:32:42,640 Speaker 4: it can't just beat him. And that's some situation. I 1614 01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:47,720 Speaker 4: fear this happening in Buffalo. Yeah you yeah, when you 1615 01:32:47,840 --> 01:32:51,960 Speaker 4: start piling these expectations and Josh Allen was out of 1616 01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:55,920 Speaker 4: his mind today and shame on New England. But when 1617 01:32:55,960 --> 01:33:06,599 Speaker 4: you start piling up, you know, no receivers, thank God 1618 01:33:06,680 --> 01:33:10,160 Speaker 4: for James Cook, because they can't hand the ball off 1619 01:33:10,160 --> 01:33:12,120 Speaker 4: to them and they can't use them out of the backfield. 1620 01:33:12,640 --> 01:33:17,679 Speaker 4: But I mean, it can't be this hard. They shouldn't 1621 01:33:17,720 --> 01:33:20,840 Speaker 4: have to be this hard, and so there's some soul 1622 01:33:20,880 --> 01:33:25,920 Speaker 4: searching that has to and you're right, winning makes you 1623 01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:31,800 Speaker 4: let things slip through the cracks. Just the joy of 1624 01:33:31,920 --> 01:33:39,000 Speaker 4: playing is void when you watch Kansas City play. It 1625 01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:42,120 Speaker 4: was last year when they were struggling, when they were 1626 01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:49,919 Speaker 4: barely beating teams, couldn't score points. You look at Patrick's 1627 01:33:49,960 --> 01:33:53,000 Speaker 4: numbers last year and you look at them this year. Yeah, 1628 01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:56,040 Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes won't make the Pro Bowl again this year. 1629 01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:04,040 Speaker 4: And they were fifteen and in two and he didn't 1630 01:34:04,040 --> 01:34:06,400 Speaker 4: make the Pro Bowl and everybody was like, whoa what, No, 1631 01:34:08,280 --> 01:34:12,679 Speaker 4: there are other quarterbacks playing much better, much better. 1632 01:34:13,479 --> 01:34:18,240 Speaker 3: I'm scrolling through the wide receivers that were selected in 1633 01:34:18,320 --> 01:34:25,439 Speaker 3: the twenty twenty four NFL Draft and some interesting ones. 1634 01:34:26,479 --> 01:34:30,000 Speaker 3: And the Bills had the first pick of the second 1635 01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:34,120 Speaker 3: round and they went with Keon Coleman. 1636 01:34:34,680 --> 01:34:38,040 Speaker 4: Bus Yeah, yeah, Bus. 1637 01:34:38,360 --> 01:34:43,120 Speaker 3: You know, I'm looking at some of the some of 1638 01:34:43,120 --> 01:34:46,320 Speaker 3: the names that were behind him, and you know, I mean, 1639 01:34:46,600 --> 01:34:49,759 Speaker 3: we don't see any superstars, but you know, Trey Franklin 1640 01:34:49,840 --> 01:34:52,879 Speaker 3: was in the In the fourth round of that draft. 1641 01:34:54,160 --> 01:34:57,519 Speaker 3: Jayla McMillan, nice young receiver for the Bucks, went after 1642 01:34:57,640 --> 01:35:03,040 Speaker 3: Keon Coleman. At an I Mitchell, who cut touchdown today 1643 01:35:03,040 --> 01:35:06,120 Speaker 3: for the Jets. He went a number of picks after 1644 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:09,360 Speaker 3: Keon Coleman. That's the other thing. That's a position where 1645 01:35:09,400 --> 01:35:12,040 Speaker 3: I feel like with the Buffalo Bills. 1646 01:35:11,920 --> 01:35:15,639 Speaker 2: They could really they could really use some tweaks. 1647 01:35:15,720 --> 01:35:18,519 Speaker 3: I like the way that they don't overpay the position, 1648 01:35:19,240 --> 01:35:23,600 Speaker 3: but they could use some more things and people for 1649 01:35:23,680 --> 01:35:24,400 Speaker 3: Josh to play with. 1650 01:35:24,479 --> 01:35:27,280 Speaker 2: There's no doubt.

I 1668 01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:22,000 Speaker 3: sort of hold the same opinion about the NFL, which 1669 01:36:22,080 --> 01:36:24,920 Speaker 3: is that just give me the rules ahead of ahead 1670 01:36:24,960 --> 01:36:26,200 Speaker 3: of the season, and. 1671 01:36:26,160 --> 01:36:27,400 Speaker 2: Then I'm willing to follow them. 1672 01:36:27,439 --> 01:36:32,720 Speaker 3: So, for example, like I actually don't fundamentally have a 1673 01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:38,080 Speaker 3: problem with the Panthers or the Bucks winning their division 1674 01:36:38,120 --> 01:36:39,439 Speaker 3: and hosting a playoff game. 1675 01:36:39,680 --> 01:36:40,519 Speaker 2: I really don't. 1676 01:36:41,640 --> 01:36:43,479 Speaker 3: I am getting to the point though, where it's becoming 1677 01:36:43,520 --> 01:36:48,240 Speaker 3: a little tiresome, and I'm wondering, like, if we've ever 1678 01:36:48,320 --> 01:36:53,679 Speaker 3: seen a division go this long where this is the rule. 1679 01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:57,639 Speaker 3: All you have to do is win half your games, 1680 01:36:58,560 --> 01:37:02,360 Speaker 3: win half your games, watch everybody else crater around you. 1681 01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:07,760 Speaker 3: It's crazy how long it's been since any of these 1682 01:37:07,880 --> 01:37:14,519 Speaker 3: four teams decided to really like just stand up and 1683 01:37:14,640 --> 01:37:17,920 Speaker 3: be like an actual thing. The Bucks have flirted with it. 1684 01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:18,720 Speaker 2: I get it. 1685 01:37:18,960 --> 01:37:21,760 Speaker 3: Baker's been good, They've won a playoff game a couple 1686 01:37:21,840 --> 01:37:24,000 Speaker 3: of years ago, all of that. 1687 01:37:24,080 --> 01:37:25,599 Speaker 2: They're not a joke by any stretch. 1688 01:37:25,680 --> 01:37:33,080 Speaker 3: But by goodness, this division is just it's ridiculous. 1689 01:37:32,800 --> 01:37:34,000 Speaker 2: It's ridiculous. 1690 01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:35,800 Speaker 3: And now the Panthers and Bucks are going to play 1691 01:37:35,800 --> 01:37:41,639 Speaker 3: each other twice over the remaining three games, and that'll 1692 01:37:41,640 --> 01:37:44,920 Speaker 3: decide the whole thing. And then then somebody really good 1693 01:37:45,040 --> 01:37:46,559 Speaker 3: is going to go to the home of one of 1694 01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:47,640 Speaker 3: those two teams. 1695 01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:55,160 Speaker 4: Right it's you know, I love and if I'm one 1696 01:37:55,200 --> 01:37:59,719 Speaker 4: of those teams who goes on the road to play 1697 01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:03,200 Speaker 4: either or Carolina Panthers or the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I'm 1698 01:38:03,200 --> 01:38:07,680 Speaker 4: trying to beat them by a million. I'd rather go 1699 01:38:07,760 --> 01:38:14,880 Speaker 4: there then, you know Philly, hell yeah, hell yeah, you 1700 01:38:14,920 --> 01:38:21,960 Speaker 4: know Chicago. Even so, it's it's a situation where it's 1701 01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:29,880 Speaker 4: all right, cool, right, Tampa, the weather won't be too bad. Carolina. 1702 01:38:31,200 --> 01:38:36,000 Speaker 4: You know, you're not afraid. You know, Tampa gives you 1703 01:38:36,040 --> 01:38:38,920 Speaker 4: a little bit of pause because Baker and Baker can 1704 01:38:39,080 --> 01:38:44,960 Speaker 4: can can get hot. But I would want to go 1705 01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:51,440 Speaker 4: to Carolina. I'm oh, I'm praying Carolina when wins that division. 1706 01:38:52,120 --> 01:38:53,719 Speaker 4: I mean, that's what you want. 1707 01:38:53,880 --> 01:38:56,840 Speaker 3: The race for the five seed is going to be hot, 1708 01:38:56,960 --> 01:38:59,400 Speaker 3: h man, it is going to be hot because, like 1709 01:38:59,560 --> 01:39:04,120 Speaker 3: right now, especially with the Lions losing today, it feels 1710 01:39:04,320 --> 01:39:09,280 Speaker 3: like you got three teams in the West and then 1711 01:39:09,360 --> 01:39:11,479 Speaker 3: you've got the Bears and the Packers in the North. 1712 01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:13,960 Speaker 3: Two of those five teams are going to win the 1713 01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:16,719 Speaker 3: division and the other three will be the wild cards. 1714 01:39:17,800 --> 01:39:21,639 Speaker 3: And there's not a one of those five teams that I. 1715 01:39:21,560 --> 01:39:25,360 Speaker 2: Wouldn't take to blow the doors off the Carolina Panther. 1716 01:39:27,600 --> 01:39:28,320 Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean? 1717 01:39:28,680 --> 01:39:31,880 Speaker 3: In a playoff setting, I don't even So here's the 1718 01:39:31,880 --> 01:39:33,719 Speaker 3: only thing I guess to me. This is a question 1719 01:39:33,800 --> 01:39:37,400 Speaker 3: because I think people are screaming until they're blowing the 1720 01:39:37,439 --> 01:39:40,800 Speaker 3: face about this idea of you know, they got to 1721 01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:43,040 Speaker 3: do away with the divisions or anything like like that. 1722 01:39:43,439 --> 01:39:45,040 Speaker 3: None of that's going to ever happen, and I would 1723 01:39:45,040 --> 01:39:47,680 Speaker 3: actually support it continued to go like it is. The 1724 01:39:47,760 --> 01:39:50,639 Speaker 3: real question is not should the winner of the division 1725 01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:53,040 Speaker 3: still go to the playoffs? It is should that winner 1726 01:39:53,040 --> 01:39:57,759 Speaker 3: of the division? Yes, like that, that's the actual question. 1727 01:39:58,479 --> 01:39:59,439 Speaker 3: What do you think about that? 1728 01:39:59,560 --> 01:40:01,800 Speaker 4: No, I agree with you, and we're in lockstep. I 1729 01:40:01,880 --> 01:40:03,559 Speaker 4: think they should go to the playoffs, but the team 1730 01:40:03,600 --> 01:40:06,880 Speaker 4: with the better record gets the home game. To me, 1731 01:40:06,960 --> 01:40:07,479 Speaker 4: that makes sense. 1732 01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:09,920 Speaker 2: Sure feels like it. Yeah, or at least there's some 1733 01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:10,719 Speaker 2: sort of a. 1734 01:40:12,560 --> 01:40:17,040 Speaker 3: You know, like, look if if you had a weird 1735 01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:21,719 Speaker 3: year where the wildcar winners are all twelve and five, 1736 01:40:22,280 --> 01:40:25,800 Speaker 3: eleven and six division winners only ten and seven, something like. 1737 01:40:26,080 --> 01:40:29,200 Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe there's like a double digit win 1738 01:40:30,520 --> 01:40:31,840 Speaker 3: sort of like requirement. 1739 01:40:32,800 --> 01:40:34,400 Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know what it is.

Illinois State had one 1849 01:46:31,680 --> 01:46:34,760 Speaker 6: starter that went oh for eleven from the floor. The 1850 01:46:34,800 --> 01:46:38,600 Speaker 6: team and the loss had sixteen baskets and twenty turnovers. 1851 01:46:39,040 --> 01:46:41,360 Speaker 6: And last night in women's hoops, there was a game 1852 01:46:41,400 --> 01:46:44,240 Speaker 6: in a Reno where the Nevada Wolfpack were leading with 1853 01:46:44,360 --> 01:46:47,800 Speaker 6: under a minute left in overtime by three points against Pacific, 1854 01:46:48,479 --> 01:46:52,080 Speaker 6: and then the arena on campus lost power. It wound 1855 01:46:52,160 --> 01:46:55,920 Speaker 6: up being officially ruled an interrupted game, a no contest. 1856 01:46:56,040 --> 01:47:01,439 Speaker 6: There was no winner, and all statistics are voided whoa. 1857 01:47:01,600 --> 01:47:05,240 Speaker 6: Nevada was leading at home in overtime and they couldn't 1858 01:47:05,280 --> 01:47:07,960 Speaker 6: finish the game. And it's a non conference matchup, so 1859 01:47:08,040 --> 01:47:10,920 Speaker 6: I don't expect them ever to have Pacific come from 1860 01:47:10,920 --> 01:47:16,000 Speaker 6: California and revisit again. So they went home to Stockton 1861 01:47:16,400 --> 01:47:19,679 Speaker 6: and it's as if the game was never played. 1862 01:47:21,360 --> 01:47:24,400 Speaker 3: How do I go about getting the same thing to 1863 01:47:24,560 --> 01:47:26,679 Speaker 3: hop into my fantasy playoff game? 1864 01:47:28,840 --> 01:47:29,600 Speaker 6: Pull the plug up. 1865 01:47:29,680 --> 01:47:31,360 Speaker 2: Yes, I turned the lights off. 1866 01:47:31,720 --> 01:47:34,879 Speaker 4: Are you telling me we can just start over? 1867 01:47:35,240 --> 01:47:38,559 Speaker 2: Zero?

Yes? 1869 01:47:40,439 --> 01:47:40,800 Speaker 4: You could. 1870 01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:42,240 Speaker 2: I just pulled the plug. 1871 01:47:42,280 --> 01:47:45,720 Speaker 4: I'm like, oh it would Your last act is. 1872 01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:49,439 Speaker 2: Yes, I tripped, I fell, the plug came out of 1873 01:47:49,479 --> 01:47:52,960 Speaker 2: the wall.

To learn more, go to Haley on assist 1882 01:48:22,840 --> 01:48:26,680 Speaker 2: dot com. You know, speaking of the fantasy world, as 1883 01:48:26,720 --> 01:48:30,200 Speaker 2: we look at an incomplete pass that was thrown at 1884 01:48:30,479 --> 01:48:34,519 Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson, I saw someone write an article this week 1885 01:48:34,960 --> 01:48:38,599 Speaker 2: that said Jefferson and this one's on him. I mean 1886 01:48:39,880 --> 01:48:42,400 Speaker 2: McCarthy hit him right between his two hands in the 1887 01:48:42,439 --> 01:48:43,160 Speaker 2: back of the end zone. 1888 01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:45,840 Speaker 3: It went right through his hands. But there's an article 1889 01:48:45,840 --> 01:48:52,400 Speaker 3: that basically was like, Jefferson is now droppable, droppable in 1890 01:48:53,040 --> 01:48:57,840 Speaker 3: fantasy football. What do the Vikings do from about the 1891 01:48:57,960 --> 01:49:02,360 Speaker 3: quarterback situation going forward? 1892 01:49:04,960 --> 01:49:12,080 Speaker 4: I think it's not fair to JJ McCarthy too to 1893 01:49:12,200 --> 01:49:13,639 Speaker 4: say he's not the one. 1894 01:49:14,600 --> 01:49:16,320 Speaker 2: Pretty early, pretty early to give up. 1895 01:49:16,400 --> 01:49:20,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, So they got to really use these next 1896 01:49:20,400 --> 01:49:25,000 Speaker 4: few weeks to really decide is this is does he 1897 01:49:25,240 --> 01:49:33,040 Speaker 4: have uh? Does he have enough to build around? He's 1898 01:49:33,040 --> 01:49:38,320 Speaker 4: on a favorable contract, his rookie contract, but he's been 1899 01:49:38,400 --> 01:49:43,040 Speaker 4: hurt a lot this year, so they really haven't gotten 1900 01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:47,559 Speaker 4: a chance to see him consistently week after week and 1901 01:49:47,640 --> 01:49:50,000 Speaker 4: what he can do. And anytime you get hurt as 1902 01:49:50,040 --> 01:49:53,680 Speaker 4: a young player, it stops your growth. It does it 1903 01:49:53,800 --> 01:49:57,559 Speaker 4: just it stops it and it's almost like a reset. 1904 01:49:59,479 --> 01:50:02,559 Speaker 4: And what you will want is to be able to 1905 01:50:02,640 --> 01:50:09,920 Speaker 4: have a complete year moving forward and to make a decision. 1906 01:50:09,960 --> 01:50:12,600 Speaker 4: I don't think you can make that decision this offseason. 1907 01:50:13,439 --> 01:50:14,840 Speaker 4: It's probably right trying to get to. 1908 01:50:14,840 --> 01:50:15,639 Speaker 2: You're probably right. 1909 01:50:16,120 --> 01:50:18,519 Speaker 4: So I think what you do is you bolster the 1910 01:50:18,560 --> 01:50:19,360 Speaker 4: team around them. 1911 01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:21,920 Speaker 2: Yep. Well, and I also think you. 1912 01:50:23,360 --> 01:50:28,080 Speaker 3: Have a very viable backup plan in place, you know, 1913 01:50:28,320 --> 01:50:31,679 Speaker 3: I mean if you really think about what they were 1914 01:50:31,760 --> 01:50:36,080 Speaker 3: doing when they drafted JJ McCarthy. Sam Donald was brought 1915 01:50:36,080 --> 01:50:40,480 Speaker 3: in to be a very very high level either placeholder 1916 01:50:40,800 --> 01:50:46,400 Speaker 3: or backup plan, and then JJ got hurt towards ACL 1917 01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:49,880 Speaker 3: and Sam ended up having a great year and Sam's 1918 01:50:49,920 --> 01:50:54,280 Speaker 3: now the quarterback of the Seattle Seahawks. The Vikings need 1919 01:50:54,320 --> 01:50:58,400 Speaker 3: to have some sort of something in place for if 1920 01:50:58,439 --> 01:51:01,519 Speaker 3: they get half way through the season next year and 1921 01:51:01,560 --> 01:51:05,280 Speaker 3: decide that the JJ is just not doing it. They 1922 01:51:05,320 --> 01:51:07,599 Speaker 3: almost need to treat Justin Jefferson the way that we're 1923 01:51:07,640 --> 01:51:11,080 Speaker 3: suggesting the Bengals treat Joe Burrow. You can't have that 1924 01:51:11,200 --> 01:51:13,400 Speaker 3: kind of an investment into a special player and then 1925 01:51:13,479 --> 01:51:14,719 Speaker 3: not give him what he needs. 1926 01:51:15,760 --> 01:51:17,400 Speaker 2: And Justin Jefferson needs a quarterback. 1927 01:51:17,640 --> 01:51:19,360 Speaker 4: He does, so he trying to get him out of there, 1928 01:51:19,479 --> 01:51:23,479 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. Yeah, so yeah, we're trying 1929 01:51:23,520 --> 01:51:26,120 Speaker 4: to get out of there. Could you imagine him with 1930 01:51:27,840 --> 01:51:28,479 Speaker 4: Josh Allen? 1931 01:51:29,040 --> 01:51:31,400 Speaker 2: Oh god, I mean I can imagine him with a 1932 01:51:31,400 --> 01:51:33,040 Speaker 2: lot of just. 1933 01:51:32,920 --> 01:51:37,240 Speaker 4: Things about we talked about earlier about the lack of 1934 01:51:37,680 --> 01:51:43,000 Speaker 4: outside help at the receiver position. For Buffalo and Josh. 1935 01:51:43,400 --> 01:51:48,559 Speaker 4: Imagine someone like Justin Jefferson though on the Buffalo Bills. 1936 01:51:48,880 --> 01:51:52,320 Speaker 2: Nice, Oh my lord, nice, nice. 1937 01:51:52,479 --> 01:51:54,439 Speaker 4: But that's what I would be thinking about if I'm 1938 01:51:54,479 --> 01:51:58,680 Speaker 4: If I'm Justin, I'm like, hey, man, hey, you know 1939 01:51:59,520 --> 01:52:02,000 Speaker 4: right right, I got to get out of here. 1940 01:52:04,120 --> 01:52:06,639 Speaker 3: Speaking of I gotta get up out of here. That's 1941 01:52:06,760 --> 01:52:09,479 Speaker 3: something that there's another quarterback in the league. It keeps 1942 01:52:09,520 --> 01:52:13,080 Speaker 3: doing that, uh in the middle of games, and we 1943 01:52:13,200 --> 01:52:15,920 Speaker 3: need to have a conversation about him before we get 1944 01:52:16,000 --> 01:52:19,000 Speaker 3: up out of here ourselves.
