Meanwhile, 6 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: Drake May Yeah, he's been super impressive of late.

Yes, after clearing 17 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: the concussion protocol, all set to make his debut for 18 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: Indianapolis and made his debut in front of the media. 19 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: Gave his thoughts on the trade from the Jets to 20 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: the Colts. It was surprising for many was it surprising 21 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: for Sauce as well? 22 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 3: You know, it was a great situation for me. I 23 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 3: feel like I actually was laying in the bed with 24 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: my girl and I was just chilling. I just got 25 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 3: a call from a Mouji, the GM for the Jets, 26 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 3: and you know, obviously the trade dadline was coming up. 27 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 3: So I was just like, please let it be like 28 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 3: my ideal situation, Like I don't want to go to 29 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 3: losing team. I don't want to go to a team 30 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 3: that's like on the other side of the world. So 31 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 3: it's like I was able to come when he told 32 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 3: me the Coats, like, you know, no, obviously I got 33 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 3: drafted there and everything like that, but you know, I 34 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 3: want to win and things like that. So it was like, 35 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 3: this was a great situation, obviously knowing a few guys 36 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 3: on the team, already being closer to home, being closer 37 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 3: to where I went to college, Like, no, God just 38 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 3: keep blessing me in many ways, so you know, it's 39 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 3: truly a blessing to be here in my favorite color 40 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 3: of blue. So you know, it just worked out perfectly. 41 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: Did that it all lined up. Brian Baldier, get on 42 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: in here, because I have a lot of Jet fan friends, 43 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: and some of them were really happy. Hey, look at 44 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: the return that we got. Some of them were like, 45 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: I can't believe we just traded our best player on 46 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: defense or whatever. Look you break down the film, you 47 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: literally break it down, Baldy's breakdown. So tell me what 48 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: are the colts in lou Anna Romo getting in Sauce Gardner? 49 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 2: Was it worth the return? Give me all of it? Baldy? Yeah. 50 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 4: I mean, first of all, I like Sauce. I mean 51 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 4: everybody does. He's got a great work ethic. But he 52 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 4: came into this league four years ago and he was 53 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 4: a lockdown, shut down corner and he was first team 54 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 4: All Pro and. 55 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 2: He deserved all of it. 56 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 4: He had twenty passes defense, he had two interceptions, Like 57 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 4: he just threw a blanket over this league, and since 58 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 4: then he has declined. 59 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 2: Second year is still pretty good, but last year the. 60 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 4: Ten penalties, one interception in his last forty six starts. 61 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 4: I saw George Pickens run by him. This year, I 62 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 4: saw Darren Waller beat him for a touchdown against the Dolphins, 63 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 4: where he's in a Manda Man shutdown mode, and he's 64 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 4: not shutting him down. But he used to win with 65 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: his feet, with his length, and with his eyes, and 66 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 4: now for whatever reason, he doesn't really trust it. He's 67 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 4: got his hands on these guys too often. He has 68 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 4: committed too many penalties in key spots. And so what 69 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 4: the cults are getting is they're not getting the guy 70 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 4: that came into this league and was the best corner 71 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 4: in the league. They're not getting that guy. Now, Can 72 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 4: that change? Lou Anarumo will give him a bot of 73 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 4: confidence because of how he's going to use them. He's 74 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 4: going to have good players out there in the field 75 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 4: with them, Tarvariu's Ward, He'll have Kenny Moore there on 76 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 4: the slot. He'll have good pass rushers coming after him. 77 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 2: Here'll be a good scheme. 78 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 4: And he was going to play on a team whose 79 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 4: offense is going to score a lot of points, and 80 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 4: like they never played with the lead with the Jets, 81 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 4: and so teams could you know, really not have to 82 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 4: throw the ball at the end of games in a 83 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 4: lot of these situations. So he's going to get a 84 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 4: lot more opportunities, I believe, And then it's going to 85 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 4: be can that talent that he came into the league 86 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 4: with win out like it once did. And that's where 87 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 4: he's got to get back to, because that has slipped 88 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 4: away from him gradually over the last couple of years. 89 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: If sace Gardner takes off now becomes a pro bowler, 90 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: and all pro don't sit there. 91 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 2: And say, like, oh, Baldy was right. Listen to what 92 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: he said. 93 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: This could be a rejuvenating thing for sauce Gardner. And 94 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: if he had stayed with the Jets versus going with 95 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: the Colts like it may have been two different paths 96 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: into the woods like the old Robert Frost poem. So 97 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: appreciate that breakdown there, baldi ian. I kick it to 98 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: you on the Jets side things, because if he had 99 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: stayed with the Jets and continued to play that way, 100 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: they got to be sitting there and saying, oh, man, 101 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: what a great return we got for him? 102 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 5: Then yeah, I would say this. 103 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 6: So much of what this trade ends up being boils 104 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 6: down to how sauce Gardner plays within Annapolis Colts, right, 105 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 6: whether it's a. 106 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 5: One, whether it's two ones. 107 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 6: If he becomes the lockdown corner that bald he says 108 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,799 Speaker 6: he can be, this is an absolute win for the Colts. 109 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 6: If he doesn't, it is not. But the reality is, guys, 110 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 6: this really is about the quarterback position, not corner that 111 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 6: saus plays the quarterback position. 112 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 5: Colts believe that they have a quarterback. 113 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 6: They believe that Daniel Jones is their franchise guy, is 114 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 6: their future quarterback. And if that's the case, they don't 115 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 6: need those ones. That's why you have them for the 116 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 6: quarterback position. They are able to trade those because they 117 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 6: believe they have an answer for the Jets, Judy, they 118 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 6: do not have an answer at quarterback. 119 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 5: They have shuffled quarterbacks and out this year. 120 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 6: There's still quarterback question this week, despite justin Field's playing 121 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 6: better the last time he played. This is all about 122 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 6: the Jets positioning themselves for a quarterback. That is why 123 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 6: for them, whatever happens here, getting two ones, setting themselves 124 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 6: up for the future, making sure they have a chance 125 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 6: at a premium franchise quarterback moving forward is the only 126 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 6: real thing that matters for the Jets. And look, if 127 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 6: that happens, if they find one, this is a win, 128 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 6: absolutely duty. 129 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 7: Look, the bottom line is they're not a better team 130 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 7: right now without Sauce Gardner and Quentin Williams for that matter, 131 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 7: the Jets are not better right now. Having said that, 132 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 7: they weren't winning with them either, and so at some 133 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 7: point they had to be thinking, what do we have 134 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 7: to do here to turn this program around. 135 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: You have these assets. 136 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,799 Speaker 7: The way to turn it around is use those assets 137 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 7: to get better, to get more picks, to get more players. 138 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 2: They got blown. 139 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,799 Speaker 7: Away by the offer they Darren Ridgie said, the Colts 140 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 7: offer just kept getting richer and richer, and finally it 141 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 7: got to the point where you just couldn't say no, 142 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 7: even if if they like Sauce Garterer and again Quinnin Williams, 143 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 7: even if they like those guys and had no intention 144 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 7: of treating them. At some point the offer gets so 145 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 7: good that they have to say, wait a minute, we 146 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 7: could set our franchise up for a turnaround, a big 147 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 7: time turnaround, with all of these picks going forward. We 148 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 7: have said it over and over again since the trade deadline. 149 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 7: They have to hit on these picks, that is the 150 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 7: bottom line. But they were not going to win this 151 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 7: year with Sauce Gardner, so they might as well not 152 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 7: win without Sauce Gardner and have two number one picks 153 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 7: coming to them for future use. 154 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: If you're the Colts, those are late first round picks 155 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,119 Speaker 1: in large part because you feel like you got better 156 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: with Sauce Gardner. 157 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 2: And if you're lou Ana Roumo, you're. 158 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: Saying, maybe I'm not even around by the time they 159 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: make those picks because I've been trying to be a 160 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: head coach for the last couple of years and being 161 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: a good defensive coordinator for a good team could help 162 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: potentially get me there. 163 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: Brian Baldinger, thank you very much. You're back. 164 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: Later in the program, I'm going to hear from you 165 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: on Drake May and so much more. Meanwhile, Brock perty 166 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: still dealing with that in the toe injury. He'd be 167 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: again the week limited this week, but it's like a 168 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: different limited. 169 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 2: It's a progression. 170 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: John Lynch on the radio out there in San Francisco 171 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: saying he's doing more this week. We'll evaluate at the 172 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: end of the week and see where we go. So 173 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: that's where Brock's at the last couple of weeks on 174 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: the practice field, giving him a little bit more and 175 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: he's making good progress. We'll see if it winds up 176 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: being him or mac Jones this weekend. 177 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 6: In Yeah, it certainly seems like without a full week 178 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 6: of practice. Certainly seems like mac Jones again, but we 179 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 6: shall see. Meanwhile, James Cook took a step forward in 180 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 6: practice today dealing with an ankle injury. Did not practice yesterday, 181 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 6: was a limited participant today, making you believe that he's 182 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 6: got a real shot Judy to be able to play 183 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 6: on Sunday. 184 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 5: Remember, this is a guy who had more than twenty carries. 185 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 6: Last week, left the game, seemed to tweak his ankle, 186 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 6: got it retaped, came back in the game. The fact 187 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 6: that he was to get back in the able to 188 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 6: get back in the game is an indication that this 189 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 6: week probably decent chance that he's back on the field 190 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 6: for the Bills. 191 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 7: Pretty good chance that pan is running back ric o'dondell 192 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 7: is going to be on the field too. He got 193 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 7: banged up against the Packers last week, despite having a 194 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 7: great day two touchdowns. All of that, he returned to 195 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 7: practice on Thursday. That is a big sigh of relief 196 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 7: you can hear coming from Carolina. He didn't practice on 197 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 7: Wednesday with a quad injury, but certainly things seem to 198 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 7: be headed in the right direction as they prepare to 199 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 7: play the Saints this week. But you know what that 200 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 7: game is on Sunday. We have a game tonight. Week 201 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 7: ten is kicking off in Denver. It is what a 202 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 7: beautiful day in Denver. It is Raiders versus Broncos, a 203 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 7: very nice AFC westclash, and our guy Jeffrey Chadia is 204 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 7: in Denver for TNF. 205 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 2: Hi, Jeffrey. 206 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 7: It looks great there set the scene for us. 207 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 8: It looks great, But lets can be deceiving, Judy, because 208 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 8: it's very windy here. The chewats behind me, they're in sunshine. 209 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 8: I'm in the shade. If it was I had hair 210 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 8: right now, Judy, I would not be happy. It's so 211 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 8: windy out here right now. But a great game come 212 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 8: with today, a big AFC West class between the Raiders 213 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 8: and the Broncos. Yes, the Raiders are struggling right now 214 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 8: at two wins six, but they always play tough games 215 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 8: against the Broncos. The Broncos they're at seven to two 216 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 8: in first place, riding a sixth game win streak for 217 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 8: fourth quarter comebacks. I would not be surprised you if 218 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 8: this game comes down to the wire because the process 219 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 8: are playing close games. Rock poofers back with the Raiders. 220 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 8: He's doing a good job for them. No patricks or 221 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 8: tant for the Broncos. This should be fun both these teams. 222 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 8: They know each other well and it should be another 223 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 8: great game between them. 224 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: Jeffrey, thank you. 225 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 7: Don't go too far because we are going to catch 226 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 7: up with you in a little bit from Denver. 227 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 2: Here is the matchup. You still got to love this. 228 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 7: I know the Raiders are struggling right now in Denver's 229 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 7: on top of the division and really has the best 230 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 7: record in the AFC. But anytime you get a division 231 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 7: rivalry like this, it's a good one. Thursday eight, fifteen Eastern. 232 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 7: That's tonight on Prime Video. 233 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: Mike, thank you, Judy, and tragic news frankly into the 234 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: NFL world on Thursday morning for the Cowboys four again 235 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: the entire league. Marshawn Neelan, the Cowboys defensive and found 236 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: dead at the age of twenty four. Police say Nieland 237 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: was found dead this morning of an imperent self inflicted 238 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: gunshot wound after evading authorities in his vehicle and fleeing 239 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 1: the scene of an accident on foot. Authorities lost sight 240 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: of the vehicle before locating it minutes later. Neilan was 241 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: selected by the Cowboys in the second round of the 242 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four NFL Draft out of Western Michigan. In 243 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: eighteen games played four starts, the defensive lineman had twenty 244 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: six tackles, four quarterback hits in one sack also had 245 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: a touchdown the other day off of a blocked field goal, 246 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: and then just a couple of minutes later, dead at 247 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: the age of twenty four, far too soon. The Cowboys 248 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: releasing a statement saying, in part, Marsham was a beloved 249 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: teammate and member of our organization. Our thoughts and prayers 250 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: regarding Marshawn are with his girlfriend Patalina and his family. 251 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: Jane Slater, who covers the Cowboys extensively for US, has 252 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: more on Niland. 253 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 9: As coaches, players and fans react to the shocking news. 254 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 9: A note from his former DC Mike Zimber to me saying, quote, 255 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 9: he was a great person, eager to learn, wanted to 256 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 9: be great. He didn't take any crap from anyone on 257 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 9: the field. He studied hard, loved playing the game tough. 258 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,559 Speaker 9: Zimmer added, My last conversation with him was keep being you. 259 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 9: You're going to have a great career. That career, sadly 260 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 9: was just getting started. 261 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,719 Speaker 1: Nilan's agent, John Pursley, had this statement. He said, he 262 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: poured his heart and every snap, every practice, and every 263 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: moment in his life. To lose someone with his talent, 264 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: spirit and goodness is a pain I can hardly put 265 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: into words. Meanwhile, from the Nielan family, we are devastated 266 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: by this tremendous loss and are still processing the depth 267 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: of our grief. As Marsham was making his mark on 268 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: the football field the Dallas Cowboys, he held an even 269 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: more special place off the field as a devoted son, brother, uncle, cousin, nephew, grandson, 270 00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: and friend. 271 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 2: He was kind, to, humble, and full of love. 272 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: His light shone brightly in every life he touched, and 273 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: his spirit will continue to live on through the countless 274 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: hearts he inspired Those hearts around the league. 275 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 2: Echoing this is the rest of the statement. 276 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: We are deeply grateful for the outpouring of love and 277 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: support from friends, fans, and the community during this difficult time. 278 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: We as for privacies. 279 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: We come together as a family to honor and remember 280 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 1: Marshan's life and legacy.

Cover three years. 307 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 6: The Patriots saw that d're a million times, saw Tom 308 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 6: Brady do it a million times. That is how you 309 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 6: do it. Drake May is, Drake May is really good. 310 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 5: Baldy. 311 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 6: You break it all down, as we learned in the 312 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 6: previous segment. Give me your Baldy breakdown of Drake May 313 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 6: and this Patriots offense that has fanned so so excited. 314 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 4: Well, he stands at the top of the leader board 315 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 4: right now, ian with the number one rated quarterback in 316 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 4: the league, completing you know, seventy five percent of his 317 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 4: passes and good decision making. But the foundation to this 318 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 4: team is the running game. I mean, Josh mcdaniels's back. 319 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 4: They've run it more than they've thrown it. So you'll 320 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 4: see Jack west over right here, the fullback Trevon Henderson 321 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 4: right here, the rookie back that's Will Campbell, the rookie 322 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 4: left tackle Jared Wilson, the rookie left guard that they 323 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 4: get out there on the perimeter. All right, good explosive 324 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 4: run and winning the line of scrimmage. Now in every 325 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 4: game in the sixteen winning streak in you can see 326 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 4: big explosive plays in the past game. Here they make 327 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 4: sure that Drake May has protection so that Damario Douglas 328 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 4: can run this deep over out right here, and he's 329 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 4: really good with it after the catch. 330 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 2: But they've got. 331 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 4: Explosive plays to Kaishan Boute, to Stefan Diggs. They take 332 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 4: their shots down the field. Now I mentioned protection's key, 333 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 4: So here's Hunter Henry. He's gonna chip on the end 334 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 4: right here because protection has been an issue for Drake 335 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 4: May's been sacked a lot, and he gets time like 336 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 4: that he usually doesn't miss. Like his accuracy right now, 337 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 4: he can really hit the bullseye right now with a 338 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 4: lot of these throws and stick throws. 339 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 2: And then what you have to. 340 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 4: Account for though, he's a very talented runner ian Like 341 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 4: if he feels pressure, if he feels his pocket getting 342 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 4: dirty and collapsing on him, like he's a he'll find 343 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 4: the escape lane and then he can make people miss 344 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 4: and he picks up good yard and she's a third 345 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 4: leading rusher on the team right now, averaging almost five 346 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 4: yards of carry. Now we saw this Zach the Scott 347 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 4: and Zolac highlight. Here that's themary O Douglas against Jalen Walker. 348 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 2: It's a matchup. 349 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 4: It's a design play, a wheel route against the rookie linebacker. 350 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 4: And like Scott and Zolac said, he dropped the right 351 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 4: in the bucket, not in the boat in the bucket. Ian. 352 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: And then I wanted to. 353 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 4: Put this play in because Cleveland came out to Drake 354 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 4: May quite a bit. And what I like when they 355 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 4: do blitz him, he seems like he always has an answer. 356 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 4: And I know Todd Bowles has had two weeks to 357 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 4: get ready for this here Ian and I just feel 358 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 4: like that's going to be a big test. Is Todd 359 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 4: Bowles pressures coming after Drake May? Do they have the 360 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 4: answer like they have had a six game win streak, 361 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 4: or do is Todd Bowles get to the rookie quarterback 362 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 4: and affect. 363 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 5: Him a little bit? 364 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm a little jealous you get to see this 365 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 6: in person, covering it on the radio. 366 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 5: This is the thing. 367 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 6: I mean, You're right, I mean Todd Bowles having extra 368 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 6: time coming after a young quarterback. I know Drake May 369 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 6: is good, but he's still a young quarterback. That is 370 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 6: going to be fascinating to watch. What do you look 371 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 6: forward to seeing? What are you looking forward to seeing 372 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 6: from this Tampa Bay Bucks team on Sunday. 373 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 4: Well, you know, first of all, they've had a lot 374 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 4: of injuries. I mean from the very beginning, Tristan Wurz 375 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 4: was out, and you know, they've had receivers out and 376 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 4: guys at the secondary. 377 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,360 Speaker 2: So they're going to get healthier than what they have been. 378 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 4: But regardless, what we have seen is a very resilient team, 379 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 4: a team that has had comebacks, late game comebacks. We're 380 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 4: going to see Abuka back in the lineup. I think 381 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 4: he's been a difference maker in every game that he's 382 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 4: been in this year. Nobody seems to be able to 383 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 4: and Baker has just been so good over these last 384 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 4: three years that he might be even better this year 385 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 4: than he even was last year. And last year was 386 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 4: one of the great years we've seen from any quarterback 387 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 4: in the history of this game. Over you know, forty 388 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 4: touchdown passes over forty five hundred yards, but he just 389 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 4: makes it all go. And the lineup front, despite the 390 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 4: fact that they lost their starting right guards, starting right 391 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 4: tackle early in the year, they still played very well 392 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 4: up front. And then you know, defensively, they've overcome the 393 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,360 Speaker 4: loss of you know, Hassan Redick went out they've had 394 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 4: some injuries there, but they should get healthier. And I 395 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 4: feel like we're gonna see the best of the Bucks 396 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 4: coming out of this. 397 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 2: Buy. 398 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 5: Yeah. 399 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 6: I can't wait to see this because the offenses are 400 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 6: both bald, but the defenses are kind of good too. 401 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 6: So is it gonna be low scoring, high scoring offensive fireworks? 402 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 6: Cannot wait to see it. You're gonna be there in person, Baldy, 403 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 6: Thank you so much. Great breakdowns as always, and enjoy 404 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 6: that game on Sunday. 405 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 5: We're gonna enjoy the game tonight. We're gonna be watching. 406 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 6: And that guy right there, Brock Bauers, the best young 407 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 6: tight end in football. That's not a controversial statement. It 408 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,959 Speaker 6: is just reality. Jeff Tredea from Denver tells us all 409 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 6: about it. 410 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 5: Hey, Dominic today today its party. 411 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: All right, bring everything you got, let's go away. 412 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 2: Both those the ball man so touch. 413 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 5: The play, better play. 414 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 11: We had to stay. 415 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 2: Me on the play. 416 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 10: Ash JENSI through the hall, touchdown riders. 417 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 2: Jenny Stunners to the hall, big big he's been in 418 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 2: the backfield. 419 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: Game on the play host touch out of the game we. 420 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 7: Play because we had. 421 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 2: To stay you put it to keep bringing squatty. 422 00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: Denver, Colorado side of Thursday Night Football Week tend Raiders 423 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: at the Broncos. I was just talking to our buddy 424 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: Jeff Jerdia during the break. I said, I don't think 425 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: I've been to Denver in like ten years. I missed 426 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: that place. Great place. Jeff Toda lucky enough to be 427 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: there for us for NFL Network and our coverage tonight. 428 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 1: So let's talk about this matchup Raiders Broncos. Broncos running 429 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 1: backs and JK. Dobbins, R. J. 430 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 2: Harvey. 431 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: A lot of initials there. How much of a problem 432 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: are they going to pose for this Raiders defense. 433 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 2: Well, they're gonna be a big problem, Mike. 434 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 8: And you talk to Raiders defensive coordinator Patrick Graham, and 435 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 8: he's really impressed with this duo because they're good at 436 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 8: we're carrying the football and they're good catching the football, 437 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 8: which makes them a really tough tandem to deal with. 438 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 8: In fact, Graham said, here, those two guys remind him 439 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 8: of Sean Payton's New Orleans teams when they had guys 440 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 8: like Pierre Thomas and Alvin Kamara carrying the football. And 441 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 8: so this is gonna be a tough matchup for the 442 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 8: Raiders because They know these two guys are going to 443 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 8: power this offense and get bo Nicks a lot of help. 444 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 8: Sean Payton talked about the fact that Arjie Harvey's really 445 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 8: coming on as a receiver. When I saw Alva Kamara 446 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 8: and Coles, I knew he was a great ka could 447 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 8: be a good runner. That finding out that Harvey is 448 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 8: a good runner, it could be a really good receiver 449 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 8: as well. 450 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: Speaking of really good receivers, I was old enough to 451 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: remember Brock Bauers as a rookie and how dominant he 452 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: was back then. He's been injured this year and then 453 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, we saw him this past week 454 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: starting to look more like Brock Bowers. So this is 455 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: going to be a challenge for this Denver defense. Out 456 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: of the Broncos Handlebowers. 457 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 8: Well, He's going to be a tough challenge for them 458 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 8: because he came in had twelve catches one hundred and 459 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 8: twenty seven yards last week. Gino Smith has been struggling, 460 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 8: throwing a lot of turnover, throwing a lot of interceptions. 461 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 8: He has four touchdown passes and that lost to Jacksonville. 462 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 8: And so the Broncos defensive coordinator Vas Joseph has talked 463 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 8: about not having Petros Sertainn in this game, their star cornerback, 464 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 8: could be an issue for them because last year they 465 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 8: were going to put certain on Brock Bowers and hold 466 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 8: him down. Without that there, he's gonna have to really 467 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 8: mix and match what he does. You know, you may 468 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 8: see some safety some corners on him, but as Vas 469 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 8: Joseph said, it's not just covering the guy as getting 470 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 8: them down once against the football. So Brock Powers is 471 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 8: going to be a big part of this game as well. 472 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 2: That's how good he is a tight end. 473 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: We don't have our top NFL Defensive Player of the 474 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: Year cornerback to cover him. That's gonna be a pro. 475 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: That's who you would put on him as a tight end. 476 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 1: It's pretty impressive right there. Jeffrey Toda, thank you very much. 477 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 1: Looking forward to all your coverage tonight leading up to 478 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 1: the game on. 479 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 2: NFL Network as well as post game as well. 480 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 7: Judy, you know what, We've got a really good one 481 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 7: on Sunday Night. 482 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 2: Two Steelers Chargers. 483 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 7: The Steelers defense, coming off that eye opening performance against 484 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 7: the Colts, forced a lot of turnovers, looked a lot 485 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 7: more like themselves. We'll see if they can do it 486 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 7: to Justin Herbert and the Chargers. Hey, Brian Baldinger is back. 487 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 7: Let's talk about this game. Let's talk about the Steelers defense, 488 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 7: because you've got a Baldy's breakdown. What did you see 489 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 7: from that defense last week? 490 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 2: Well, they kind of rebuilt it, Judy. 491 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 4: It started with Jalen Ramsey going to safety last week, 492 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 4: and then they acquired Kyle Dugger and on the back 493 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 4: end they played much better. They tackled better, and the 494 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 4: ball didn't go over their heads. And in fact, the 495 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 4: first break the first play in this breakdown, Judy, is 496 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 4: just exactly that. 497 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 2: Jalen Ramsey is the first circle. 498 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 5: That's Kyle Duggar. 499 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 4: When they played back like this, it allowed the corners 500 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,199 Speaker 4: right here to really match up and get sticky in 501 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 4: coverage right here, and it made Daniel Jones hold the 502 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 4: ball more and longer than he wanted to. And here 503 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 4: he scrambles and Joey Porter ends up actually getting a 504 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 4: sack on the play. And then look, Indianapolis left TJ. 505 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 4: Watt one on one right here with the right tackle 506 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 4: Braden Smith. It was his best pass rush of the 507 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 4: entire year. Second quarter coltal winning right here. 508 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 5: TJ. 509 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 4: Basically ignited a complete firestorm with the Steelers defense with 510 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 4: that sack fumble recovery that led to a touchdown. And 511 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 4: then they got really aggressive in the blitz game. And 512 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 4: right here you see high Smith, her Big and Cano 513 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 4: Benton all win and they get to Daniel Jones. Sacked 514 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 4: him a bunch of that game. And then Peyton Wilson 515 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 4: all world judy in this game. He lined up everywhere 516 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 4: like here. He comes and bats the ball down from 517 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones right to his friend Jack Sawyer. There he 518 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 4: gets his first interception, and then you know, you watch 519 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 4: him right here, and you watch the safeties back when 520 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 4: Indianapolis tried to play catch up right here, they played 521 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 4: a matchup zone underneath, all right, and so they're getting 522 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 4: really sticky, really tight in coverage. They know they got 523 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 4: safety help over the top of Daniel Jones tries to 524 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 4: fit it in and the rush just collapsed on him. 525 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 4: And when you look at who was rushing here, you 526 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 4: got your two rookie defensive tackles. Derek Carmon hang with 527 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 4: Ya Black and here comes Herbig and high Smith. 528 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 2: And when Daniel Jones tried. 529 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 4: To step up to clear the soup up front, there 530 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 4: was Herbie. That was Herbie with the strip fumble right there. 531 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 4: He's pretty good at that Coltri covered. But if you 532 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 4: look at the standings right now, you know after these 533 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 4: eight games, duty they're second in the league in takeaways 534 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 4: with sixteen. They got a bunch last week. Last year 535 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 4: they tied for the league league in takeaways. If they're 536 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 4: taking the ball away and they're giving the extra bats 537 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 4: to Aaron Rodgers and the offense, this team's going to 538 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 4: win a lot of games. 539 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 7: I mean, you were showing all of that pressure that 540 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 7: they were bringing on Daniel Jones, and I'm sitting here thinking, 541 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 7: no Joe Alt for the Chargers, they've certainly had their 542 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 7: fair share of injuries on that offensive line. How does 543 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 7: that Chargers offense try to attack that Steelers defense? 544 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 4: Now, well, the Steelers have been vulnerable to the run. Now, 545 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 4: the Colts didn't really try to get Jonathan Taylor going 546 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 4: last week for whatever reason. But I mean it always 547 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 4: starts with harball. It's going to start with them being 548 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 4: able to stop the run. They've had struggles this year, 549 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 4: you know, against Cincinnati against the Jets stopping good running backs. 550 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 4: So I mean it starts there with stopping the run. 551 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 4: But then you know, Justin Herbert's been hit a lot 552 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 4: more than any other quarterback in the league, Judy, but 553 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 4: he's so big and strong. Even if you hit him, 554 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 4: he still completes a lot of passes, and so you know, 555 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 4: can you affect him so they can't make passes to 556 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 4: his rookie tight end Rondy Gatson or a fleet of 557 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 4: receivers right now where he feels pretty comfortable throwing it. 558 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 4: So you know, he's still going to take his shots 559 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 4: down the field regardless. And uh, you know, we'll see 560 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 4: if Quinton Johnson is ready to go. But uh, you know, 561 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 4: the receivers have had a lot of success, like Keithan 562 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 4: Allen coming back right now. But pressure on Justin Herbert 563 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 4: is going to be paramount. You know this Sunday night. 564 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,719 Speaker 7: We got a bunch of good games in week ten, Baldy, 565 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 7: thank you very much. 566 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, thanks, Judy. On the NFL, is it Berlin look. 567 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 11: Out by the job from the job, from the job, 568 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 11: kick me because not in the weekend is an unbelievable 569 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 11: on this time. 570 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 4: Shot think Taylor for the great running back, mister Robinson. 571 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 11: Oh my goodness, International games seem to look the coolest 572 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 11: on TV. 573 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 6: Part of the reason because the sow psyched that the 574 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 6: NFL is there Berlin FanFest in full force. Games till 575 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,719 Speaker 6: a couple of days away. Fans are already getting psyched 576 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 6: for it. I expect an excellent, excellent atmosphere for Falcons 577 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 6: Colts as well. Our good friend Jane Slater tells us 578 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 6: all about. 579 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 9: It well as we stand out front of the Brandenburg Gate. 580 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 9: It is, of course known for all sorts of history, 581 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,919 Speaker 9: but we're making history this weekend with the first NFL 582 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 9: game here in Berlin. And how about a little bit 583 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 9: of news. Sauce Gardner to the Colts. I caught up 584 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 9: with Kyle Pitts last night and asked him about it, 585 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 9: because he's likely traveling with Pitts, and he told me 586 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,640 Speaker 9: he was shocked. Hey, that's the guy who just got 587 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 9: a new contract with the New York Jets. He said 588 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 9: when he popped in the tape, he's going to be 589 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 9: one of the taller quarters that he goes up against. 590 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 9: He's absolutely smart, athletic, he said. They're really going to 591 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 9: have to work them. Now, the Colts, they've already got 592 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 9: an offense that's been purring, but it's going to be 593 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 9: huge to get a get a guy like Gardner. When 594 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 9: you consider through their games this season, they're giving up 595 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 9: on average two hundred and forty five passing guards. On 596 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 9: the flip side. The Colts known for some of their 597 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 9: disguises on defense, well, they're going to need to show 598 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 9: all of that because Jean Robinson is the guy to start. 599 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 9: Not a lot of time for these teams to get 600 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 9: acclimated or do the sight seeing that we did, but 601 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 9: they will land on Friday, get right to practice, and 602 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 9: then it's meetings at the hotel and then kick off 603 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 9: here on Sunday. 604 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: Time to go inside with NFL Fantasy Live. That's our guy, 605 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: Michael f Florio here on a Thursday, as always, get 606 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: you ready for Thursday End Football and the entire. 607 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 2: Weekend in the NFL Week ten. 608 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's start with Thursday end Football and the 609 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: players that we are going to start in this Broncos 610 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: Raiders matchup. 611 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 12: Look, I know the last couple of weeks have been 612 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 12: down weeks for Courtland and he hasn't ed back to 613 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 12: back single digit fantasy point game since the start of 614 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 12: last season. 615 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,479 Speaker 2: But I think this is a week for him to 616 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: get right. 617 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 12: He has had success against the Raiders in the past, 618 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 12: and they have allowed the fourth most Fantasy points per 619 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 12: game two wide receivers. They've also allowed the seventh most 620 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 12: yards to out wide wide receivers, and Sutton plays over 621 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 12: eighty percent of his snaps out wide. He also has 622 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 12: the safer floor of the Broncos receivers. But I do 623 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 12: think Troy Franklin is in play in this one as well. 624 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 12: Don't look now, but Troy Franklin leads the Broncos and 625 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 12: targets air yards and end zone targets, and again, this 626 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 12: is a favorable matchup for the receivers. The Raiders have 627 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 12: really struggled against the position. I lean more Sutton because 628 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 12: he's the outside guy, but Franklin bounces back and forth 629 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 12: between the slot and out wide, so I think he 630 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 12: is in play. And then the Broncos defense might be 631 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 12: a lay up here, but I'm not too shy to 632 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,239 Speaker 12: take it. Every week they are in play, but this 633 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 12: week especially, they lead the NFL in sacks and it's 634 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 12: not close, and the Raiders have taken sacks at a 635 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 12: top ten rate. They've also given the ball away at 636 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 12: the third highest rate in the end, so most weeks 637 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 12: the Broncos defense are in play, but this is a 638 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 12: slam dunk matchup, the kind of matchup that if they hit, 639 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 12: they could have a performance that changes your fantasy week. 640 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 5: Man Fourio just hates the Raiders. They so little of them. 641 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 6: Now, I want to ask you who you should sit tonight. 642 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 6: I shume your answer is going to be everyone on 643 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 6: the Raiders. 644 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 12: There's also a couple of Broncos I think you should 645 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 12: be sitting, including Evan Ingram tonight. 646 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 2: Look, it just hasn't happened for Evan Ingram. 647 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 12: We thought he would be like the catch and run 648 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 12: guy there in the Sean Payton system. 649 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 2: Nope, that's been Troy Franklin. 650 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 12: In his last two games, Evan Ingram has seven targets combined. 651 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 12: Last week he put up a donut zero fantasy points. 652 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 12: The floor is so low, we haven't seen really much 653 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 12: upside that I think it is okay to get away 654 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 12: from him. And then r J Harvey. I know he 655 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 12: has five touchdowns in his last three games. The issue 656 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 12: is he is eight touches or fewer in each of 657 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 12: those games. In fact, he only has one game all 658 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 12: year with more than eight touches. And while I do 659 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 12: think the Broncos will have a lead in this one. 660 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 12: The game script is leaning itself to be more. 661 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 2: Of a JK. Dobbins type of night. RJ. 662 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 12: Harvey does bring a high upside, but you can always 663 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 12: rely on multiple touchdowns, and if he doesn't get those, 664 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 12: the floor is very low. And I know I've only 665 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 12: talked about Broncos so far. The Raiders are as straightforward 666 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 12: as it gets. You play Brock Bowers, you play Ash 667 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 12: and Genty, you sit everyone else. 668 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 2: So there's not a whole lot to talk about when 669 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 2: it comes. 670 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 5: To the Raiders for tonight. 671 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: Pretty simple there, all, right, to the Jets who made 672 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: their moves on defense at the trade deadline, how about 673 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 1: the offense? Justin fields? I know you've been a big 674 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: field fields guy this year. 675 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,719 Speaker 2: They're playing the Browns. I mean, I don't know. 676 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: Maybe the defense is gonna give up more points, so 677 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: that could lead to more points on offense. 678 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 2: You tell me your rationale. I think this is a 679 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 2: week where you could sit justin fields. 680 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 12: And like you said, I don't know if anyone has 681 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 12: been backing fields more in fantasy this season than I have. 682 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 2: But it's just such a bad matchup. 683 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 12: The Browns have generated sacks at the third highest rate. Meanwhile, 684 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 12: the Jets give up sacks at the fourth highest rate 685 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 12: in football, and they allow pressure at the highest. Plus 686 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 12: the Browns fourth fewest passing yards and seventh fewest fantasy 687 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 12: points per game, and maybe even more important for Justin 688 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 12: Field's second fewest rushing yards allowed to quarterbacks and no touchdowns. 689 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 12: If you can't bank on the running performance, you can't 690 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 12: bank on starting Justin Fields in fantasy that week. 691 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 5: Well, what about Jared Goff? 692 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 6: Not a lot of running yards there from Jared Goff, 693 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 6: plenty of air yards for Jared Goff. Face is a 694 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 6: commander's defense that's been, you know, not among the best 695 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 6: in the NFL. I assume we're starting him. 696 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's been more of a floor year for Jared Goff. 697 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 12: He hasn't quite been what he was with Ben Johnson. 698 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 12: But to your point, Ian, I think we need to 699 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 12: start viewing the commander's defense how we do with the 700 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 12: Bengals and how we had with the Cowboys up until 701 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 12: this point. Like when teams play them, you get their 702 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 12: guys in your fantasy lineups. The Commanders on the year 703 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 12: have allowed the second most pass yards, fourth most touchdowns, 704 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 12: and third most Fantasy points per game to quarterbacks. They've 705 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 12: allowed the most touchdown passes in the last month, and 706 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 12: Jared Goff right now, his touchdown. 707 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 2: Rate would be a career low. I don't expect that 708 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 2: to continue. 709 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 12: I think regression hits, and I think it hits in 710 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 12: a big way this week in a very favorable matchup 711 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 12: against the Commanders. 712 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: All Right, quinnjan Jenkins, I talked about the Jets end 713 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: of that game. How about the Browns and Quinn Sean Judkins. 714 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, the only thing. 715 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 12: That could stop quin Shawn Jenkins' game scripts, right, Like, 716 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 12: whenever the Browns are in a close game and they 717 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 12: can continue to feed him the ball, he. 718 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 2: Goes off for fantasy. 719 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 12: It's been games where they fall behind two to three 720 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 12: scores and they have to start passing it that Judkins 721 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 12: has disappointed. Well, fortunately for him, the Jets haven't had 722 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 12: a multi score lead since Week one, So I think 723 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 12: this is a game where the Browns will be able 724 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 12: to feed Judkins. 725 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 2: Throughout the whole game. And to your point, you know Williams. 726 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 12: There, there's no Sauce Gardner there, like, this is a 727 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 12: depleted Jets defense. I think we've seen Judkins run on 728 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,919 Speaker 12: the Lions and the Packers. I think he can run 729 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 12: on this Jets defense. You just got to give him opportunity. 730 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 12: And I don't see the Browns trailing by so much 731 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,760 Speaker 12: that they have to get away from the run against 732 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 12: the Jets this weekend. 733 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 5: So the Texans defense is not depleted it. 734 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,399 Speaker 6: In fact, Matt Berger is doing an excellent job at 735 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:27,439 Speaker 6: calling place, kind of keeping that thing afloat. They play 736 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:31,800 Speaker 6: the Jaguars and Travis Eten. What say you about starting Eten, 737 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 6: who's been good at times against this really good Texans defense. 738 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been an up and down year. 739 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,280 Speaker 12: We've seen some really good stretches and some downstretches for Etn, 740 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 12: But because of the matchup, I think it is a 741 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 12: six week for him. On one hand, we saw two 742 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 12: in getting some goal line work last week at Etn 743 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 12: has scored less than ten Fantasy points in three of 744 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 12: his last four. But for me, this is about the matchup. 745 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 12: The Texans have allowed these seventh fewest rushing yards, they 746 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 12: allow explosive runs at the fifth lowest rate, they're below 747 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 12: average and yards before and after contact, and Etn in 748 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 12: two of his last three games against them, has failed 749 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 12: to even get you nine fantasy points. 750 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 2: So the floor is low, the stealing is low in 751 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 2: this matchup. 752 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 12: I think if you have another option and the capability 753 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,800 Speaker 12: of getting away, I would do so. 754 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: All right now to the portion of the program where 755 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: we get to ask about our own teams. Wandale Robinson 756 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: is the guy I want to ask you about. Production 757 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: has been relatively consistent. We had the one Wow game 758 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: early in the year against the Cowboy. 759 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 2: If you haven't really seen that. Without going through my whole. 760 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: Roster and who like your overall thoughts on where you 761 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: put Wandell, we me. 762 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 12: And you could text about your actual roster after the show. 763 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 12: But I have wandel Robinson as a start this week because, 764 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,800 Speaker 12: like you said, the production has been pretty consistent. What 765 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 12: I like even more, the targets every week are very consistent. 766 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 12: And then they're getting a Bears defense that has struggled 767 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 12: against wide receivers. They've struggled primarily against slot receivers, which 768 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 12: is where Wandell does all of his damage. And on 769 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 12: top of that, Bears defense isn't good, the Giants defense 770 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 12: isn't good. I think this could be a sneaky high 771 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 12: scoring game, and I want players from this game in 772 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 12: my fantasy lineups. 773 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 6: More importantly than that, I got a running back three 774 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 6: spot flex spot right. I picked up Tyrone Tracy last week, 775 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 6: which you told me to do. Didn't really pan off me. 776 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 6: I still won, by the way. 777 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 5: I'm on a little bit of a roll one three 778 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 5: out of my last four. 779 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 6: But whatever, Nick Chubb or Tyrone Tracy this week for 780 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 6: my last running back spot. 781 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 2: What are your other options with Tracy? 782 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 5: What I got Bill Krossky merrit is my other option there? 783 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 2: Ooh, I don't like Bill this week. 784 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,720 Speaker 5: So I got Crossky Merritt, Chubb or Tracy. 785 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 12: I would take the upside shot on Tracy. I think 786 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,840 Speaker 12: his matchup is the best of the three. The Bears 787 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 12: are top three and yards before contact allowed two running backs, so. 788 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 2: He should get some room to run there. He did 789 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 2: see more targets than Devin Singletary. 790 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 12: The usage is a little frustrating because Singletary was there 791 00:36:58,840 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 12: RB three when. 792 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 2: Camscott, who was healthy. Now suddenly he's there RB one. 793 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 12: But I do think the explosive Tracy just brings more upside. 794 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,959 Speaker 12: Bill Merritt, in his last four games combined, hasn't scored 795 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 12: a total of eighteen Fantasy points. 796 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,439 Speaker 5: Like it's just hard to trust him right now. 797 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was everybody's darling coming out of training camp. 798 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,400 Speaker 2: Not so much right now. There it is right there. 799 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: NFL dot com slash Start sit for all the information 800 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: on who Michael f Florio thinks you should start and 801 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: sit in Week ten in the NFL. 802 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 2: Go check it out. Michael f. 803 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: Flurio, Thank you very much, pal, always appreciating your insight 804 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: here on the Insiders. Coming up, we have got some 805 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 1: news around the NFL regarding quarterbacks and some matchups, some 806 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,520 Speaker 1: key matchups in the NFL, including Eagles Packers. 807 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:44,799 Speaker 2: How about that one on Monday night. 808 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: We're gonna be discussing that when we come back on 809 00:37:47,840 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: the Insiders. Dolphins gearing up for that game in Miami. 810 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:07,439 Speaker 1: The Dolphins after the firing and Chris career, but Mike 811 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:11,879 Speaker 1: mc daniel down there in Miami still remaining the head 812 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 1: coach of the potential to make a statement moving forward. 813 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: As for a Tongua Bailoa and his grip on the 814 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: quarterback job, he say he's not worried about that part 815 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: of it. 816 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 13: I wouldn't say I'm playing to keep my job. I 817 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,839 Speaker 13: think I'm playing to try to help our team win 818 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,720 Speaker 13: every time. I think that's the objective, you know, for 819 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 13: every quarterback that's playing, for every football player that's playing 820 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 13: as well, the objective is how can I help my 821 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 13: team win games? And so I would say, if you're 822 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 13: looking at it in that sense, I would say, my 823 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 13: performance needs to be better, and my performance doesn't reflect 824 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 13: me trying to keep my job, because that's not the 825 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 13: standard in which I've been playing all these other years. 826 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 2: So I would say. 827 00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:00,879 Speaker 7: That, you know, the Bears of one five of their 828 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 7: last six games. 829 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 2: I bet the Giants are gearing up for Chicago. 830 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 7: The Giants play Chicago this week. Last week, the Bear 831 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 7: survived one of the wildest endings you'll ever see over 832 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 7: the Bengals. Here is Ben Johnson on his team. 833 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 14: This particular team in years past would find ways to 834 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 14: lose games, and now we're finding ways to win games. 835 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 14: And so I think they're looking to change that narrative. 836 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 14: And now now that we've done that, we've got to 837 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 14: continue to develop that killer instinct, as Dan alluded to. 838 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 14: So we're gonna we're going to continue to get better there. 839 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 14: But I think it's a really good group. I can't 840 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 14: say enough good things about our locker room. I mean, 841 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 14: we really have zero issues with discipline or anything of 842 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 14: that nature. These guys just want to come out and 843 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 14: play ball and win games and be there for their teammates. 844 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 14: So usually you got some bad apples in there, but 845 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 14: we really don't. We have just a really strong locker room. 846 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 14: I think they continue to grow and camaraderie continues to strengthen, 847 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,439 Speaker 14: and hopefully we'll see dividends from that here the next 848 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 14: couple of months. 849 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 6: Talked about Commander's lines with Michael f Florio. 850 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 5: It's gonna be a good one. 851 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 6: I remember the last time these two teams faced, it 852 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 6: was in the playoffs. It was kind of electric, and 853 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 6: you kind of wonder, what does Jared Goff and the 854 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 6: Lions think about facing the same team that knocked him out. 855 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 5: If only there was a way to find out. Listen 856 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 5: to Jared Goff tell you what he thinks. 857 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 15: That's definitely part of it. Absolutely. I think you know 858 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 15: more than that. We want to, you know, get off 859 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 15: of a losing streak here and get a w And 860 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 15: certainly you're you're thinking about that, but I think you know, 861 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,239 Speaker 15: that's how many games ago, nine games ago now, so 862 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 15: we're trying to get a win this year and maybe 863 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 15: use that as a little aud of motivation if we 864 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 15: need it. 865 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 1: Yep, it is see your breath time in Green Bay, 866 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: see your breath season. I guess you can call it 867 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: twenty seven degrees, but one hundred percent chance of green 868 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,319 Speaker 1: and gold well, I mean, listen, some of that green 869 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: might be Eagles green, but. 870 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 2: It's gonna blend right in. 871 00:40:58,080 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'd say one hundred percent chance of a 872 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 1: hundred per inside that building. Remember, the Packers were the 873 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 1: ones that were saying, let's ban the tesh push this offseason. 874 00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:09,320 Speaker 1: There's Matt Lafleur on the play. 875 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 13: I think the best way to stop it is to 876 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 13: not to allow it to happen. In regards to you 877 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 13: can't you can't allow them in those short yarded situations 878 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 13: because you know exactly what they're going to do and 879 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 13: they've been pretty successful at it. 880 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 2: Obviously, it is what it is. 881 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 13: You know, the NFL made a decision and. 882 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: We have to find a way to try to stop 883 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 1: the play. 884 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 2: And it's a tough play to stop, all. 885 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 1: Right, Eagles coming off of by Eagles really without playing 886 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: had a good week last week with everything that's really 887 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 1: happened within the division, with regard to the. 888 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:43,760 Speaker 2: Results on the field, obviously. 889 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 1: The Eagles, though, still have to worry about getting healthy 890 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: Ian good news. 891 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 6: For them on Thursday, Yeah, really good news. AJ Brown 892 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,799 Speaker 6: and Sekuon Barkley. AJ Brown hamstring, Sako and Barkley growing. 893 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 6: Both those guys. We're back at practic this in advance 894 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 6: of the Monday nighter and Thursday. We're going to get 895 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 6: an official injury report at some point later today. But 896 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 6: just those guys being back, whether they play or not, 897 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 6: just those guys being back, Judy is a significant thing 898 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 6: because the Eagles kind of were running on fumes a 899 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 6: little bit into the by. 900 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:19,320 Speaker 5: Now they got. 901 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 6: Through the by, They got two of their guys back, 902 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:23,280 Speaker 6: They traded for a bunch of guys. 903 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 5: This looks like a team that we'll. 904 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 6: See, but looks like a team that at least could 905 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 6: potentially go on a little run. 906 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 5: Here. 907 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 7: Yeah, when last we saw them on the field, the 908 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 7: Eagles were demolishing the Giants. And you say, okay, well 909 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 7: it was the Giants, but if you just look at 910 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 7: what the Eagles did, they were getting right right. They 911 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 7: finally got the running game going. They were able to 912 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,479 Speaker 7: pen Jackson dart In. They didn't let him get going 913 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:50,480 Speaker 7: using his legs. They started looking more like a complete team, 914 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 7: more like a team, like you said, Ian, that maybe 915 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 7: could get on a little bit of a role. That 916 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,799 Speaker 7: was their best performance of the season so far. They'd 917 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 7: been getting wins but sort of scuffling and not happy 918 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,800 Speaker 7: with how things look. That game, they looked much more 919 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 7: like themselves and much more like a championship level team. 920 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 5: Again. 921 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Eagles. Let's do the quick math here. Three 922 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: and a half games up in the Commanders. The Cowboys 923 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 1: tie is killing me. Three games up on them and 924 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: the win column, we'll. 925 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 5: Say that much. 926 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 1: It's hard to figure it out, but regardless, the Eagles 927 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: had a nice lead in the NFC eighth. Now it's 928 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 1: about positioning ANFC East. Now it's about positioning themselves in 929 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 1: the NBC as they try to defend their. 930 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:30,720 Speaker 2: Super Bowl title. 931 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 1: All Right, we've got nine coaching semi finalists for the 932 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 1: Pro Football Hall of Fame. We've also got contributors as well, 933 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 1: But these are three of the nine. Here guys with 934 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,839 Speaker 1: Super Bowl rings or other guys with Super Bowl rings, 935 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:48,240 Speaker 1: And here are your contributor semi finalists for the class 936 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty six. 937 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,239 Speaker 2: You see Robert Kraft right there in the middle, as 938 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:53,480 Speaker 2: well as Art Rooney Junior. 939 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: Judy, your thoughts on the coaches and contributors that are 940 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 1: up for the Hall of. 941 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 7: Fame here, well, these are going to be narrowed down 942 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 7: to one that will then be put forward for a 943 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,799 Speaker 7: vote by the selection committee. Listen, I know, Mike, you 944 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 7: and I both want Tom Coughlin in the Hall of Fame, 945 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 7: but it is really hard to imagine that the guy 946 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 7: he beat twice in the Super Bowl, Bill Belichick, is 947 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:14,919 Speaker 7: not going to go in this year. 948 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:19,720 Speaker 6: I mean, if if this goes the way it should, 949 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 6: you got to think it's a Belichick and Craft Daily double, right. 950 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 5: I Mean, isn't that what we all want see? 951 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 6: If they come together and put their bury their differences 952 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 6: and come together. 953 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,880 Speaker 5: For the good of the NFL. That's just too good. 954 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 2: To be true. It must have just have one present 955 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 2: the other would love to see. 956 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,839 Speaker 1: That, and then the other present the other football. We're 957 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 1: back on Friday to get you ready for the rest 958 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:42,520 Speaker 1: of Week ten in the NFL.
