1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 2: Oh, this one is living up to every ounce of

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 2: the hype. The third matchup between the Rams and the

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 2: Seahawks underway. Only seconds remain before we get to halftime.

5
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 2: The Seahawks with the ball in a back and forth

6
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: game that is telling us everything we thought we were

7
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 2: gonna see. Like, the question was, could Seattle's defense adjust

8
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 2: to everything? Could they try and find a way to

9
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 2: slow down that Rams offense that was so effective last

10
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: time these two teams played in so far, the answer

11
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 2: is yes, We're getting this. This one's living up to

12
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 2: the hype. Peace Buck Rising, I'm Jason Fitzbuckin Fitz We're

13
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 2: gonna be hanging out with you until eleven pm Eastern.

14
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 2: We already know one half of the Super Bowl. We

15
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 2: will get to that New England Patriots stop me if

16
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 2: you've heard this before. Are headed to the Super Bowl.

17
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 2: But who will their opponent be? The two best teams

18
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: I think in the NFL the entire season, the two

19
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: best teams remaining in the playoffs are playing right now

20
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 2: and this matchup it's just a back and fight, heavyweight fight,

21
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 2: back and forth, I should say, a heavyweight fight book.

22
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: As we have two teams right now fighting. We're about

23
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 2: the hit half, and I still don't have any idea

24
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 2: of who's going to win this football game.

25
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 3: No, I mean hell, I didn't have any idea who

26
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 3: was going to win the last football game. And it's

27
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 3: a much different style of football or kind of football

28
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 3: that we're watching in Seattle right now than we did

29
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 3: in Denver earlier in the day. It's whoever wins this game,

30
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 3: of course, will be favored, because it does feel like

31
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: the NFC participant is appreciably better than the New England

32
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 3: Patriots right now, who I think we are all still

33
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 3: trying to figure out, because it's a huge accomplishment what

34
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 3: they've done, the turnaround that Mike Rable and that staff

35
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 3: and the roster flip that they were able to orchestrate

36
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 3: in just one year after finishing as a four win

37
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 3: football team and looking very despondent despite the hope around

38
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 3: a young quarterback. That young quarterback showed his inexperience today

39
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 3: in the AFC Championship Game, and lucky for him, Jared Stidham,

40
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 3: who was thrust into an unenviable situation, could not meet

41
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 3: the moment, and New England ultimately advances this game between

42
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 3: Seattle and la however, is Seattle continues to try and

43
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 3: cut into the rams very very minimal lead at this

44
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 3: point in time thirteen to ten. Is they're just so

45
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 3: much better from a personnel standpoint, and I think you

46
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 3: look at them from a schematic advantage too. Either one

47
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 3: of these teams that advances, whether it be McVeigh and

48
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 3: his offense or McDonald and that Seattle d.

49
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: Well, Here's the thing, as we watch Seattle right now,

50
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 2: Jackson Smith and Jigma is putting on a clinic like,

51
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 2: I think it's time to just step up and realize

52
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: that as much as we love Justin Jefferson and as

53
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,440
Speaker 2: much as we love Jamar Chase, and I'm not taking

54
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: anything away from some of the elite receivers in the NFL,

55
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 2: kind of feels like Jackson Smith and Jigma might be

56
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 2: the best of them and the Rams don't have an

57
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 2: answer so far as we sit right now. In Jigma,

58
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: as I'm speaking, just catches the go ahead touchdown. The

59
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 2: Seahawks are now up sixteen thirteen, pending the extra point

60
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 2: before that completion because I don't have the yardage for it.

61
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: Smith and Jigba already had six catches for one hundred

62
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 2: and one yards. Six catches now seven catches one hundred

63
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: and fifteen yards in the first half. They don't have

64
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: anybody else they're even trying to throw the football to.

65
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 2: At this point, Raheits Shaheed has one catch. Kenneth Walker

66
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 2: with a couple of them like the running backs, a

67
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,959
Speaker 2: little bit of action, but basically right now, if you're

68
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: looking at Sam Donald, who is twelve of eighteen, Sam

69
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: Donald's offense at this point is drop back, find Jackson

70
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 2: Smith and Jigba let him carve you up. The Seahawks

71
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 2: take this seventeen to thirteen lead, and I'm telling you,

72
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: buck Like, I don't know if it's because it's West Coast.

73
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's because it's the Seahawks. I

74
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 2: don't know because they played at the four o'clock window

75
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: on the East Coast when half the people are done

76
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 2: with football. For that, I don't know why it is.

77
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 2: I just don't think the JSN has gotten quite the

78
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,119
Speaker 2: level of hyph he deserves. And he is on one

79
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 2: right now.

80
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 3: How the hell is he that open? He's the one

81
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 3: guy you gotta stop. He's just sitting there in the

82
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 3: back corner of the end zone, and this is it's

83
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 3: it's not a good day for the Rams secondary to show,

84
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 3: you know, some of the weaknesses that they have. And listen,

85
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 3: all of these teams that were remaining prior to today's

86
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 3: games had flaws that could be exploited. We know that

87
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 3: the Rams and their secondary are not the best unit

88
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 3: of the what was the remaining four teams now down

89
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 3: to three teams with the AFC Championship already having been decided.

90
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 3: But like, I gotta imagine that you gotta you gotta

91
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 3: have a little more self awareness there if you're if

92
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 3: you're that LA defense because he's just he's just sitting there,

93
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 3: nobody really within five yards of him, it feels like.

94
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 3: And so Seattle takes the lead with twenty seconds to go.

95
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 3: JSN for me, FITZI, I'm for for people who are

96
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 3: unfamiliar with PFWA. It's the Pro Football Riders of America.

97
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 3: It's the union for those of us who are NFL

98
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 3: beat writers. Obviously national people are in there too, but

99
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 3: like for me, for example, I'm a member of the

100
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,280
Speaker 3: PFWA in Nashville because I cover the NFL team in Nashville,

101
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 3: the Titans, we put together an end of year ballot, right,

102
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: it's not the MVP award and the Offensive Player of

103
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: the Year award that gets selected at NFL Honors during

104
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 3: Super Bowl Week, but the PFWA does our own ballots

105
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 3: for all those different awards as well. JSN was my

106
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: Offensive Player of the Year, and I understood very easily

107
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 3: how you could make the argument for Christian McCaffrey, who

108
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 3: was also a part of that list of potential nominees

109
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 3: that you could pick from. But he to me, has

110
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 3: been I mean, you take him off that team, it's

111
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 3: a completely different team. He's excellent. And we don't give

112
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 3: the MVP awards to anybody but quarterbacks anymore, not since

113
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,799
Speaker 3: twenty twelve as a non quarterback won the MVP. Adrian

114
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,679
Speaker 3: Peterson going back over a decade at this point in time,

115
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 3: but without Jackson Smith and Jigba, Seattle is in a

116
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 3: situation where you don't don't have that superpower on offense

117
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 3: for Sam Donald to go to. Sam Donald has done

118
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 3: a really, really good job this year, but there's no

119
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 3: question that Jaysen is the reason why this team is

120
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 3: competing at the highest level.

121
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 2: Again, seven catches, one hundred and fifteen yards in the

122
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: first half. They just told us on the broadcast that

123
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 2: is the third time this season the Jackson Smith and

124
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 2: Jigba has had one hundred yards receiving in the first

125
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 2: half of a game.

126
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 4: And sure, I think, sure a couple of months ago, but.

127
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 2: Well to that point, book, there's a difference between doing

128
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 2: it against the Titans when nobody gives it damn and

129
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 2: doing it. That's why I feel like this game is

130
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 2: such a coming out party for the Seahawks because the Seahawks, again,

131
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 2: I don't know why. Maybe it's because Mike McDonald, the

132
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 2: head coach, isn't necessarily a household name because he's a

133
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: defensive guy. I don't know. I mean, Kyle Brandt from

134
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 2: the NFL Network did a funny bit where he went

135
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 2: around Seattle and showed pictures and tried to see how

136
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 2: many people even knew what Mike McDonald looked like, and

137
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 2: it was hysterical, but it reminded us of how invisible

138
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 2: sometimes Seattle becomes. And certainly, you know they went through

139
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 2: a couple of years, but we're talking about a couple

140
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 2: of years. It's not like the Seahawks have been sort

141
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 2: of dormant. They haven't been the Browns for the last

142
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 2: ten years the Seahawks have. They made a change from

143
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 2: Pete Carroll. They go to Mike McDonald. They do a

144
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 2: quick rebuild, they very quick rebuild to put themselves back

145
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 2: in this situation. Now they're sitting in the NFC Championship game.

146
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: I just think a lot of people haven't watched a

147
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 2: lot of Seahawks football, So what they hear is Sam

148
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 2: Donald and what they think is, well, Sam Donald sucks.

149
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: So then I don't need to watch this team. This

150
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 2: team is sitting up seventeen to thirteen, eight seconds ago

151
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 2: in the first half. They're one half away from going

152
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl with Sam damn Donald. So like,

153
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 2: I just I think this is the moment that the

154
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 2: world will start to have to sort of pay attention

155
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: to this.

156
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm too insulated given that my primary business is

157
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 3: the NFL, but like, who the hell is not aware

158
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 3: of the Seattle Sea.

159
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 2: They don't get a lot of Like it's very rare

160
00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 2: that we're like when's the last time you turned in

161
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 2: tuned into one of the morning Like get up? You

162
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 2: are leading get up on Monday morning with this seah I.

163
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 3: Don't know, but I don't want to see stuff, you

164
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, like and maybe maybe and maybe

165
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 3: most sports fans do, but like my my level of

166
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 3: paying attention to a team is not dictated on what

167
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 3: makes the morning shows at the seaport at uh you know,

168
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 3: ESPN studios or whatever.

169
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying like.

170
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 3: That, And and I don't know if I'm speaking just

171
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 3: for me again, I'm an NFL reporter for a living

172
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 3: that also does talk radio on the side, Like I may,

173
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 3: I may be I may be too far into this

174
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 3: to look around and be like, what the hell do

175
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 3: you mean? Who doesn't know that Sam Darnold is the

176
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 3: first quarterback to have a number one overall seed whilst

177
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 3: leading the league in turnovers in the regular season? Like

178
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 3: is that not common knowledge about the Seattle Seahawks, about

179
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 3: the team that's participating in the NFC Championship. I can't

180
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,679
Speaker 3: believe that people are unaware or sleep on the idea

181
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 3: of Jackson Smith and Jigbo when again, I don't think

182
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 3: there's been a better wide receiver in football this year.

183
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 3: Every element of this team I feel like is get

184
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 3: being given proper praise at every turn. But again, I

185
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 3: may I may be too insulated in my little NFL

186
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 3: bubble here.

187
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 2: I mean, I may be too insulated in my my

188
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 2: my social media ESPN and fandom bubble. Like in fairness,

189
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 2: I just don't feel like there's a lot of leading

190
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 2: with the Seahawks, even when we got into power ranking season,

191
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 2: which is the most ridiculous exercise in the world, by

192
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 2: the way, Like I tell fans all the time, if

193
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 2: you really freak out about power rankings, who cares? Like

194
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 2: if your team wins, they'll move up, and if they'll lose,

195
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 2: then it was all a point anyway, Why loose sleepover?

196
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 2: But it's rare that we see, Like if you if

197
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 2: you're turning into the athletic or you're you're reading stuff

198
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 2: on ESPN dot com, or you're you're watching any of

199
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 2: the Fox Sports shows in the morning, it's rare that

200
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 2: the lead is the Seahawks, even with the number one seed.

201
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 2: And to your point, as you just mentioned, the Seahawks

202
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: have the number one seed even though Sam Darnold is

203
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: a quarterback that leads the league of turnovers, which all

204
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 2: all I've heard is, see, this is why the Seahawks

205
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 2: are lucky, and Sam Donald's gonna melt down and he sucks.

206
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: And just for point of reference here, I mean to

207
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 2: be very clear, Sam Donald is having a better half

208
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 2: than Matt Stafford is through one half of the NFC

209
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 2: Championship game. Sam Donald is a better quarterback. Matt Stafford

210
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 2: is the one that has struggled throughout the course of

211
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 2: the playoffs at a level that people don't seem to

212
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 2: talk about. We keep saying, oh, the Rams, the Rams,

213
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 2: the Rams, Rams, when the Seahawks here are sitting here

214
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 2: at halftime with Sam Donald playing better than Matt Stafford

215
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 2: and with Kenneth Walker playing better than Blake Koram. I mean,

216
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 2: some of the runs that Blake Corm's got some pretty

217
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 2: good numbers, but some of the misruns here that Kenneth

218
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 2: Walker's put together have been absolutely incredible. And so and

219
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 2: we talk about Pook and the Cool all the time,

220
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 2: like I hear pookin the Cool's name all the time.

221
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 2: But Jackson Smith and Jigba is having a better half.

222
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,199
Speaker 2: He's had a better season. Jackson Smith and Jigba has

223
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 2: been a better wide receiver this year than pookin the coua.

224
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 2: I just don't think that we talk about them with

225
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 2: that level of like a little tip of the gap

226
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 2: respect to some Seattle Seahawks along the way.

227
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 3: Oh, I couldn't disagree more. And maybe again it's because

228
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 3: they were on the Titans schedule this year. I got

229
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 3: them up close in person. I spent a week talking

230
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 3: about them, because God knows, I wasn't going to talk

231
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 3: about the Titans at that point in time on the

232
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 3: local show in Nashville because what's there to talk about.

233
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 3: So I'm I'm acknowledging that I may have hyperfixiated on

234
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 3: good teams because I'm so tired of watching bad ones

235
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 3: that I cover on a regular basis, which, by the way,

236
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 3: we are going to address when we talk about the

237
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 3: AFC participant in the Super Bowl who fired that coach

238
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 3: two years ago for Brian Callahan and has hired another

239
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 3: failed coach and Robert Salah to try and coseplay their

240
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 3: way back into a my graval situation. Not that I'm

241
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: waiting for that segment at all with baited breath at

242
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 3: this point in time, but I think Seattle has earned

243
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,199
Speaker 3: every bit of it. And listen, if they can find

244
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 3: somebody to or some way to talk themselves into thinking

245
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 3: that they're being discounted God helped them in the Super Bowl.

246
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 3: That's like Georgia a couple of years ago winning the championship.

247
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 3: Defensive lineman holding up a newspaper being like, they picked

248
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 3: us to go seven and six or something like that.

249
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 3: I'm like, who the hell picked you to go seven

250
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 3: and six? You are so full of bleep? And also,

251
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 3: Kirby Smart is a wizard for being able to motivate

252
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 3: you that way. Everybody in the world believes in you.

253
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 3: They have been the Super Bowl favorites for how many

254
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 3: weeks now, I mean months? Maybe at this point, at

255
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 3: least a month. The Seattle Seahawks have been favored to

256
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 3: win the damn Super Bowl. Who's sleeping on them?

257
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 2: I still think the general conversation sleeps on them. But

258
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 2: the disrespect bull is gonna be won by the Patriots

259
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: no matter who they play, because no people are already

260
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 2: I mean, we've already said the Patriots gonna be the underdog.

261
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 2: Just give me all of the conversation about handing the

262
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 2: ball off to your running backs at the goal line.

263
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 2: If we get Patriots versus Seahawks Part two plenty to

264
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 2: get to He's Buck Rising. I'm Jason Fitz. We're just

265
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 2: getting started by the way, you know, I got halftime

266
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 2: coming up. If you need to take care of some things.

267
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 2: Have you ever wiped with a piece of dry toilet

268
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 2: paper and wondered? Is this as good as it gets?

269
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 2: It is not switched to life changing wet extra large

270
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 2: flushable dude pipes because what are just cleans better? Available

271
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 2: at Amazon and at major retailers nationwide. Dude wipes best

272
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 2: clean pants down. All right, we've talked a lot about

273
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: this game. This game is at the half, but we

274
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: know one of the two teams that are going to

275
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 2: be in the Super Bowl. So what do we make

276
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 2: of the way it all went down? The Broncos lose

277
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 2: to the Patriots at home. In a nail Bider will

296
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 2: we are at halftime of the NFC Championship game. He's

297
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 2: Buck Rising. I'm Jason Fitz. We are halftime of the

298
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: NFC Championship game. Currently Seattle holds a lead, but right

299
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 2: now everybody's holding the breath to figure out who the

300
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: Seahawks will be taking or who the yes, who the

301
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 2: I should say, who the Patriots will be taking on

302
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 2: the Seahawks or the Rams. I'm still shook it because

303
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 2: here are Patriots fans finally getting that that opportunity to

304
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 2: get back to the Super Bowl. It's been a long run.

305
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 2: It's been a difficult time for the Patriots as they

306
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 2: tried to figure out how to maneuver life without Tom Brad.

307
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 2: I know, I know, it's all just seeping from my pores.

308
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 2: I got to watch the Broncos and the Patriots. Say,

309
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 2: as a Raiders fan, do you know how weird it

310
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 2: is to sit there and try and figure out like, Okay,

311
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 2: the Broncos are one of my biggest rivals, and I

312
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 2: will never root for anything the Broncos do taking on

313
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 2: the Patriots. Not only am I living in the thick

314
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 2: of New England, so I get to deal with Patriots

315
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 2: fans all the time. Who, as I've said many times,

316
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 2: we're not out in the bars when they sucked it's amazing,

317
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 2: but now they're out in the streets telling you how

318
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 2: great they are. But you know, the tuck rule game

319
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 2: only came up like eighteen times in the broadcast. I'm fine,

320
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 2: I'm fine. But the Broncos I thought really had a

321
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 2: shot here. And I'll be honest, Buck, I expected really

322
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 2: good from Jared Stidham, and in the opening quarter of

323
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 2: the game, I felt really good about that. They go

324
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 2: up seven to nothing, and that's when things get a

325
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 2: little controversial. They have the ball, they're up seven to nothing,

326
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 2: they have a fourth and short deep in New England territory,

327
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 2: an opportunity to take an easy ten to nothing lead.

328
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 2: They choose instead to do a little play action rollout

329
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 2: play that does not go well. It looks ugly. All

330
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 2: of a sudden they turn the ball over. That became

331
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 2: incredibly key because in the second half of anyone that

332
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 2: wasn't able to watch, the weather turned and it turned

333
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 2: drastically and we went from clear and cold to suddenly

334
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 2: sweeping win all over the place. Nobody could get a

335
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 2: kick to go anywhere. It became a let's just not

336
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 2: lose the game, and that lack of three points haunted

337
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 2: them for the rest of the football game. The Broncos

338
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 2: were not able to get it done. Mike Rabel and

339
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 2: the New England Patriots headed to the Super Bowl thanks

340
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 2: to their defense, thanks to the fact that Jared Stidham

341
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 2: couldn't get much going, thanks to the fact that that

342
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 2: the Broncos basically melted down in the second half offensively,

343
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 2: It was an impressive defensive effort from New England.

344
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is just kind of one of those

345
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 3: things like if the Broncos get it, is Sean Payton

346
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 3: a bit of a gambler for trying that against the

347
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 3: league's second best fourth down defense this year, which is

348
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 3: New England?

349
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 4: Or is he a dope?

350
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 3: You know when they don't get it and are you

351
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 3: too aggressive on fourth down? I know, you fool for

352
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 3: trying to maximize your percentages there and take a ten

353
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 3: to nothing lead, which would of course felt a bit

354
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 3: you know, in the case of New England insurmountable after

355
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 3: the way that nobody could hit a field goal basically

356
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 3: from the start of the third quarter on. It is

357
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,640
Speaker 3: one of those things that's going to be hyper analyzed.

358
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 3: And o' sean Payton explained himself after the fact, but

359
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 3: this is kind of fitzy. I don't know how you

360
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 3: feel about this, because for me, if I'm not covering

361
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 3: a game in terms of you know, I'm going to

362
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 3: have to talk about or write about the consequences that

363
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 3: a team's decision making led to x outcome or why

364
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 3: outcome and people's jobs are on the lines, and you know,

365
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 3: all these different things. Right Like, if I'm just watching

366
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 3: football objectively, I'm okay with the over aggressiveness that we

367
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 3: have in the league today on fourth down, you know,

368
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 3: because it's entertaining, right Like, it leads to fun conversation,

369
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 3: it leads to dramatic stakes, it leads to us being

370
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 3: able to do our favorite thing as far as sports

371
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 3: fans and media goes, which is, Oh, you idiot, let

372
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 3: me tell you how stupid you are for making a

373
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 3: decision that ninety percent of us probably would have made,

374
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 3: and made it in a you know, with less information

375
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 3: than you did in that particular moment, Sean Payton. But

376
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 3: I do think that this was an example of over

377
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 3: aggressiveness in a big spot, and it just so happened

378
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 3: to bite Sean Payton in the ass. Mike Frabel is

379
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 3: as good a situational coach that staff. I know it

380
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 3: very well because they basically just imported what they had

381
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 3: in Tennessee up to New England, including his situational football Czar,

382
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 3: which isn't the exact title for John Striker in New England,

383
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,479
Speaker 3: but Stretch as they call him, has been Mike's right

384
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 3: hand man since he was here in Tennessee, and that

385
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 3: is who helps Mike decide what to do in those

386
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 3: various situations, of which of course Frabel gets a ton

387
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 3: of credit for and rightfully so, but he has a

388
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 3: lot of people helping him in those particular situations. Sean

389
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 3: Payton got over aggressive and a bit him in the ass.

390
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 3: That's as simple as what that is. And that play

391
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 3: is going to come up as one of the biggest

392
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 3: turning points in the game because of Stidham's inability to

393
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 3: get anything going Otherwise, I think we all expected a

394
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 3: little better.

395
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 4: It all kind of you know, you have.

396
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 3: To keep your expectations reasonable when the weather turns the

397
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 3: way that it is. Nobody was succeeding in that game.

398
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 3: Drake May wasn't playing overwhelmingly well in that game even

399
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 3: before the weather turn So it could have just as

400
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,679
Speaker 3: easily been the Patriots looking like a goat instead of

401
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 3: Sean Payton and the Broncos in this particular situation. But

402
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 3: unfortunately for Denver, their run that started with super Bowl

403
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 3: expectations and their coach proclaiming in August that they were

404
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,919
Speaker 3: a super Bowl team, it ends just short of the

405
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:31,640
Speaker 3: ultimate game.

406
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think the pro so, look, you and

407
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 2: I are the opposite when it comes to aggressiveness. I'm

408
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 2: constantly the guy that everybody hates in the bar that

409
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 2: says take the points, you win with points, And I

410
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:41,199
Speaker 2: get it.

411
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 4: I do.

412
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 2: I've had this argument a million times, like Mina and

413
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 2: Nate Tyson, all my friends that are big on analytics,

414
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 2: and everybody says, no, only analytics social like, Look, I

415
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 2: am a fan of a football team that sucks. And

416
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 2: when you are a fan of a football team that sucks,

417
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 2: and you know that ninety nine percent of the time,

418
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 2: you don't convert forth in one. I'm just a fan

419
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 2: of taking point when you can get points. But I'm

420
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 2: particularly a fan of taking points in a playoff game

421
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 2: when Drake May was shell shocked, Like you could feel

422
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 2: in the first quarter that Drake May was chasing it

423
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 2: seeing goes it didn't He didn't feel comfortable back there.

424
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 2: The Denver defense was dominating. So in that situation, I

425
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 2: want the points just because every time I score puts

426
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 2: a little bit more in the back of Drake May's mind.

427
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 2: Got to do a little bit more. Right now, we're

428
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 2: down by two scores. So to me, I think you

429
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 2: have to factor in, how's the other quarterback playing, how's

430
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 2: my quarterback playing? What's the situation where am I? You're

431
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 2: on the road in Denver in a game where to

432
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 2: be Frank, the meteorologist in the local area had predicted

433
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 2: that the weather was going to turn it You never know,

434
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 2: but that was not something that surprised everybody. So to me,

435
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 2: I keep looking at it and say, my God, take

436
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 2: the points. Make Drake may press more and they didn't,

437
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 2: and then that came back to Harnom And that's one

438
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 2: of a few, Like you mentioned situational football. Near the

439
00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 2: end of the game, Jared staid him through an interception.

440
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 2: But I think the lost part of that conversation is

441
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 2: that Mike Rabel, because they made a substitution, Mike Rabel

442
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 2: then made a late defensive substitution which had the timing

443
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 2: of the entire place suddenly wildly off. They couldn't burn

444
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 2: a time out, they didn't have one to burn. It

445
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 2: just was. It was the worst case scenario all the

446
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 2: way around that led to a stupid throw by Stidham

447
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 2: that turned into an interception. I would argue that Mike Rabel.

448
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 2: Whatever anybody thinks of Mike Rabel, I think Rabel out

449
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 2: coached Sean Payton in this football game. Sean Payton can

450
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 2: be a Hall of Fame or be a legend and

451
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 2: have a Super Bowl ring. He got his buck kicked

452
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 2: in this game because Rabel beat him a couple of times.

453
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 2: He really had to beat him, and I felt like

454
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 2: Sean Payton kept forgetting that he had a backup quarterback

455
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 2: in there.

456
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 3: Oh, buddy, I've seen Mike do this before. This is

457
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 3: not Mike Rabel's first AFC Championship game as a coach.

458
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 3: He took the Titans in twenty nineteen to THEFC Championship Game,

459
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 3: or you could say that Derek Henry took them to

460
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 3: the Fcuit Championship Game, or however you want to categorize it,

461
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 3: because I know there's a lot of miserable Titans fans

462
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 3: out there watching Mike Frabel go to the Super Bowl

463
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 3: and cursing the name of their ownership for being so

464
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 3: shortsighted and unable to navigate egos in that particular situation

465
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 3: to keep him on as the coach here in Tennessee

466
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 3: where I am and covering that particular team. But Mike's

467
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 3: done this before. He is as adept as anybody who's

468
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 3: on the competition committee for many years when he was

469
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 3: in Tennessee.

470
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 4: I don't know if he's on it since he's.

471
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 3: Been back in the league as a head coach at

472
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 3: this particular point in time. But the thing with Mike

473
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 3: is that he knows the rule book as well as

474
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 3: the officials do, if not at points better. The Patriots

475
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 3: when Mike Frabel was on the Titan sideline. That was

476
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,919
Speaker 3: Tom Brady's last game as a New England Patriot, the

477
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 3: Wildcard round where Mike Vrabel figured out a rule on

478
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 3: special teams that allowed them to bleed clock with their

479
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,199
Speaker 3: punter in a way that Bill Belichick had done a

480
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 3: couple of years earlier against the Jets or something like that.

481
00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 3: Vrabel out Belichick Belichick in order to end Tom Brady

482
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 3: and Bill Belichick's dynastic run and go on and advance

483
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 3: and beat the number one overall seed Baltimore Ravens with

484
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 3: a young Lamar Jackson in Baltimore before ultimately losing by

485
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 3: ten to the Kansas City Chiefs the year that Patrick

486
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 3: Mahomes won his first Super Bowl.

487
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 4: I've seen Mike do this before.

488
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 3: The only difference between Mike Brabel now and Mike Brabel

489
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 3: then is he had Ryan Tannehill then and now he's

490
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,439
Speaker 3: got Dreg May and Josh McDaniels, which makes a world

491
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 3: of difference. Even if you don't think it does.

492
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 2: You are one thousand percent right about that. I need

493
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 2: to break down on it, but first need to get

494
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,439
Speaker 2: you caught up. Steve de Segert, want to get US

495
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 2: caught up on what is going on right now on

496
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 2: the scoreboard.

497
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 7: It is now Seattle twenty four to thirteen over the Rams.

498
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 7: Early third quarter, just disaster territory for the Rams. Late

499
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 7: first half and early second half. Late first half, the

500
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 7: Rams had the ball with just over a minute to

501
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 7: go till the break and could only engineer a thirty

502
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 7: nine second drive three and out. They punted away and

503
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 7: it's a touchdown for Seattle. Before the halftime break, Sam

504
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 7: Darnold to Jackson Smith and Jigbo fourteen yard td to

505
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 7: make it a lead for the home team at halftime

506
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 7: seventeen thirteen. They just scored again because on a punt

507
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 7: to the Rams, Xavier Smith, LA's return man stumbled going

508
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,120
Speaker 7: backwards muff the catcher was recovered in the red zone

509
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 7: by Seattle, and the very next play Sam Donald throws

510
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 7: a touchdown pass of seventeen yards to Jake Bobo. Seattle

511
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 7: twenty four to thirteen over the Rams, twelve oh two

512
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 7: to go, third quarter in the NFC Championship game on

513
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 7: Fox TV. The winner gets New England. In a couple

514
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 7: weeks in the Bay Area, in Super Bowl sixty, the

515
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 7: Patriots eliminated the Broncos in Denver ten to seven. The

516
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 7: pats only touchdown came in the first half after a

517
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 7: fumble by quarterback Jared Stidham. The backup had to start

518
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 7: because of the bow Knicks injury. Nicks had broken his

519
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 7: ankle the previous game. Stidham also through a late interception. Today,

520
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,120
Speaker 7: Drake May just eighty six years yards passing in the win.

521
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 7: He was sacked five more times, but on his first

522
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 7: seven carries he had sixty eight yards rushing in a score.

523
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 7: Mandre Stevenson seventy one yards rushing a combined fourteen punts

524
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 7: in that game, New England first quarter twelve plays twelve

525
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,479
Speaker 7: yards Denver in the second half eighteen plays, just thirty

526
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,439
Speaker 7: two yards of offense. The Broncos season is over. The

527
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 7: Packers new defensive coordinator is Jonathan Gannon, former Cardinals head coach.

528
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 7: Before that, Gannon ran the Eagles defense. The giants new

529
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 7: defensive coordinator will reportedly be Denard Wilson from the Titans.

530
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 7: He's a former assistant for John Harbaugh in Baltimore. The

531
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 7: Giants are due to hire Chris Horden from Baltimore to

532
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 7: be their special teams coordinator in the NBA today at Detroit,

533
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 7: twenty nine points for Cade Cunningham and a Pistons win

534
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 7: over Sacramento one thirty nine to one. Sixteen Kings have

535
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 7: lost five in a row. By the way, Detroit's JB.

536
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 7: Bickerstaff will coach in next month's All Star Games, since

537
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,159
Speaker 7: the Pistons have clinched the best record in the East

538
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 7: through February first. On the NBA scoreboard, currently it is

539
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 7: Toronto leading at Oklahoma City sixty one fifty nine as

540
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 7: they approach mid third quarter. Big lead for New Orleans

541
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 7: at San Antonio seventy two fifty three in the third

542
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 7: Coming up in a half an hour, the Clippers host

543
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,240
Speaker 7: a Brooklyn team that's lost for in a row. For

544
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 7: the Clips, Kawhi Leonard available, he had misspracticed yesterday due

545
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 7: to illness, was listed as questionable with the Bruce knee

546
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 7: as well. Denver at Memphis postponed by the bad weather.

547
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 7: Dallas at Milwaukee postponed by bad weather. NHL Colorado a

548
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,959
Speaker 7: four to one winner at Toronto. We have under twelve

549
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 7: minutes to go third quarter of the NFC Championship Game

550
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 7: on Fox TV. Seattle at home leads the Rams twenty

551
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 7: four to thirteen.

552
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 2: Back to you, thanks, Steve, appreciate it to It's fucking

Speaker 2: have a big completion for the Rams. Keep you updated

563
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 2: on that. But as Steve mentioned, muffed punt, I just

564
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 2: want to prefer anyone that wasn't paying attention to the

565
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 2: Rams this year. They fired their special teams coordinator this year.

566
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 2: During the season, there has been a very clear weakness

567
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 2: for the Rams. That muffed punt turned into seven points.

568
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 2: But also they had a punt earlier that easily could

569
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 2: have been recovered it was also muffed. So again, special

570
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 2: teams just continued to be an issue for these Rams.

571
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 2: It feels like it's gonna put more and more pressure

572
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 2: on them Buck as they try and move the football here,

573
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 2: but they are down by eleven. As explosive as the

574
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 2: Seahawks have been in this game, you gotta feel like,

575
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 2: now we talked earlier about the pressure that was on

576
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,920
Speaker 2: the Drake may in a deficit, you're gonna start putting

577
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 2: pressure on this Rams offense to create some level of points.

578
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 2: They go to a beable put on the board.

579
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 3: And that's going to take them out of the way

580
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 3: that they want to play right they've been.

581
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 4: So they've been trying to.

582
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,360
Speaker 3: I don't want to say protect Stafford to an extent,

583
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 3: but he hasn't been the best version of himself, I

584
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 3: would say for a couple of weeks now, and still

585
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 3: has ways to make. As we talked about yesterday evening,

586
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 3: you and me when we were hanging out on Fox

587
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,239
Speaker 3: Sports Radio, that he still has the ability to make

588
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 3: these god tear throws that will make.

589
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 4: Us all just drop our jaws.

590
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,159
Speaker 3: Onto the floor, like the one he hit against DeVante

591
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 3: or two Davanta Adams against the Bears to advance to

592
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,639
Speaker 3: the NFC Championship game. Right now, nine of sixteen, one

593
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty five yards and a touchdown early, But

594
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 3: they are just very much struggling to get this thing going,

595
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 3: and it's one.

596
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 4: Of those things where you don't want him to have.

597
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 3: To get into a dropback game against the Seattle Seahawks front.

598
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 3: That's exactly what Mike McDonald wants. He wants to be

599
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 3: able to tee off on a thirty seven year old

600
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 3: quarterback in a pass rush situation when the defense knows

601
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 3: that it doesn't have to worry about the run.

602
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 4: And we are teetering right now.

603
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 3: Now, I'm still somebody who says, you know, commit to

604
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 3: running the football all game long. And obviously, as he

605
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 3: hits a big play to Devonte Adams, who a little

606
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 3: slow to get up but ultimately does get up, setting

607
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 3: him up with a first and goal situation, this is

608
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 3: a very critical drive. They have to come away with

609
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 3: a touchdown here. A field goal is not going to

610
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 3: win this game.

611
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 2: Well, and just as you say that, DeVante Adams gets

612
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 2: that touchdown, so pending the extra point, the Seahawks have

613
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 2: the lead here. But that was a quick and easy

614
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 2: drive by the Rams. They needed that. They needed some explosion.

615
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 2: They need to get a little bit of momentum back

616
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 2: because Seattle was certainly starting to run away with this game.

617
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 2: I watched these offenses, and the funny thing is much

618
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 2: has been made of the fact that Drake May is

619
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 2: him with the capital H. If you were someone that

620
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 2: looks at the fact that even though he didn't play

621
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 2: particularly well today, he has now beaten three top five

622
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 2: defenses on his path to the Super Bowl. What is

623
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 2: interesting about that? And the reason that I think stats

624
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 2: are so just I don't know the right way to

625
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 2: say it. Stats lie all the time, right, Sure, I

626
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 2: don't take anything away from Drake May and the fact

627
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 2: that he's done that, But the bigger story to me

628
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 2: is that the Patriots have now gone through the Chargers,

629
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 2: who were decimated on the offensive line and just a

630
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 2: shell of whatever they were supposed to be this year,

631
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 2: not a very good football team. Then they beat CJ. Stroud,

632
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 2: who played so poorly I wonder if he should even

633
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 2: be the Texans starter. And then they turn around and

634
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 2: they beat Jared Stidham, who, you know, frankly, it just

635
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 2: hadn't played in two years, and a lot of us,

636
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 2: myself included, thought he would come out and play well.

637
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 2: He did not. I don't know whether to credit the

638
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 2: Patriots defense for being really good or whether this means that, man,

639
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 2: the Patriots defense has been lucky to not play an

640
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 2: explosive offense. I'm watching this NFC Championship game, just layer

641
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 2: point after point after point against quality defenses, and all

642
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 2: I keep thinking about is as good as the Patriots

643
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 2: defenses looked, they are not. They have not been tested

644
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 2: the way the Super Bowl will test them, no matter

645
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 2: which one of these teams comes out of it.

646
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 3: No, And I mean if you're the Patriots, the argument

647
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 3: would be, Okay, well, we've passed every test you've.

648
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 4: Given us so far.

649
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 3: We just went undefeated on the road in an NFL season,

650
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 3: Like it doesn't matter who the hell you're playing. That

651
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 3: that's a near impossibility. Undefeated nine to zero in an

652
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 3: NFL season regular season in post is a crazy thing

653
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 3: to say. And listen as somebody who's getting ready to

654
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 3: root for Fernando Mendoza next years, is the Raiders prepared

655
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 3: to draft you.

656
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 2: I thought you were telling me you were going to

657
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 2: root for Fernando. I thought you were gonna come join

658
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 2: me on the Fernando train and be a Raiders fan.

659
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 4: No, I don't want to be a Raiders fan, but

660
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 4: I'll root for Fernando.

661
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 2: You can come on, you can come on.

662
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 4: Yeh, I know that's room. What wow? What wow?

663
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 2: I mean.

664
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 4: What a crazy thing to say, is a Raders fan.

665
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a room on the bandway you think, Look,

666
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 3: you're adorable that we'll not stand.

667
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 2: You know what, I'm gonna buy you a Fernando Mendoza

668
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 2: jersey and then I'm gonna drag you to a Legion.

669
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 2: Actually the Titans play, Yeah, Vegas next year. You're gonna

670
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 2: go like, you know what, I'm coming and we're gonna

671
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 2: party in Vegas all weekend and it's gonna be We're

672
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 2: just going to put a boom box on my shoulder

673
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 2: and we're gonna walk up and down the strip playing

674
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 2: Fernando by Abba over and over Abba why they call

675
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 2: him Abba Abba over and over and over again. And

676
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 2: it's gonna feel so good.

677
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,719
Speaker 4: And you're gonna don't understand. I will do that.

678
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 3: I will do all of those things, but I will

679
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 3: not be a Raiders fan. No, it's like asking me

680
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 3: to be a Titans fan. Are you in your mind?

681
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 2: Okay? Are you done? Are you done? I'm sorry? National

682
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 2: Champion Buck Rising is too good for my Like that,

683
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 2: that's it. Fernando leaves the room and all of a sudden,

684
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 2: he won't be a Raiders fan.

685
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 3: Dare you try to sully my national champion, Aura with

686
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 3: the idea of Raiders fandom.

687
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 4: You're crazy.

688
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 2: Look for the only thing better than turning around Indiana

689
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 2: would be also being Imagine this, He's the Heisman Trophy winner, right,

690
00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 2: He's the national champion, he turned around the biggest loser

691
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 2: in college football history, and then he goes to the

692
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 2: Silver and Black and turns around the Raiders. Come on, now,

693
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sill a.

694
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 3: Good time, dear, unless you're getting his coach too, Buddy,

695
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 3: I'm not optimistic, but you know I root for you

696
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 3: to have happiness in your sports life.

697
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 2: I have a pretty sneaking suspicion that Signetti realizes that

698
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 2: life is better not as the Raiders head coach. Speaking

699
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 2: of teams that suck, let's get into it. Coming up next,

700
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 2: Mike Vrabel is headed to the Super Bowl. And now

701
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 2: what does that mean about not just the Titans letting

702
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 2: him go, but frankly all of the teams in the

703
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 2: NFL that looked around and had a shot at Mike

704
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 2: Rabel and didn't make it happen. We'll answer that question

705
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,959
Speaker 2: next bucking fits hanging out with you on Fox Sports Radio.

706
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

707
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 2: You know who's bad to the bone? Cooper Cup just

708
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 2: scored a touchdown. We got four fifty two to go

709
00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 2: in the third. The Seahawks have extended their lead against

710
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 2: the Rams. The score is now thirty one to twenty.

711
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 2: They are up, and even more important than that, thirty

712
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 2: one to twenty. I just want to read this for

713
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 2: the world to hear. Nineteen to twenty seven for two

714
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 2: hundred and ninety one yards and three touchdowns. Now, you

715
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 2: might think that I'm giving you Matt Stafford's line. I

716
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,280
Speaker 2: am not. Nineteen to twenty seven, two hundred and ninety

717
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 2: one and three is Sam Donald. You know, I'm just

718
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 2: gonna take my lap here because Vikings fans have been

719
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 2: up my you know what since the day that I

720
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 2: said they would regret letting Sam Donald out the bet.

721
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 2: We've seen him. He can't play in big games. He's

722
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 2: gonna have him outdown eventually. They need what I hear?

723
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 2: What I hear, Well, let me let me ask you

724
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,720
Speaker 2: that would you rather we finish every show. We finish

725
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 2: every single bucking rising, Bucking Rising, bus Bucking Fish with

726
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 2: would you rather make it all?

727
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 5: You?

728
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 2: Would you rather? Would you rather have Sam Donald or

729
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy vikings fans because you're watching your own personal

730
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 2: hell live out in front of your eyeball, Sam Donald

731
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 2: having a heck of a day. Buck. They are up

732
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 2: by eleven right now.

733
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 3: You know, I have a different version of this because

734
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 3: I cover a team that had the number one overall

735
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 3: pick in this most recent draft, and the argument was

736
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,720
Speaker 3: being had about, well, is the value of cam Ward

737
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 3: so great that you absolutely have to draft him with

738
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 3: the number one overall pick? And you know, stiff arm

739
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 3: away An he'd offer that the New York Giants would

740
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 3: come in with at the eleventh hour, as they did

741
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,759
Speaker 3: made several overtures to try and draft cam Ward at

742
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 3: the time and pay somebody like Sam Darnold to come

743
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,479
Speaker 3: in and be a replacement level theoretically quarterback and again

744
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:36,760
Speaker 3: on a much worse roster in the case of Tennessee

745
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 3: versus Seattle. But the idea that you could spread the

746
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 3: wealth of that number one overall draft pick across many

747
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 3: other places to make a roster better and get above

748
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 3: average quarterback play that you think you're capable of building

749
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 3: around Seattle did that, and then some right. Seattle already

750
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,320
Speaker 3: had a talented roster is now maximizing their quarterback position,

751
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,399
Speaker 3: made a change at offensive coordinator. What it's worth as well,

752
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 3: Ryan Grubb went back to college football and joined Kaitlyn

753
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 3: to Bord Alabama this year. After not having great success

754
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 3: with Gino Smith and really struggling Seattle offensive line a

755
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 3: year ago. A lot has changed to allow the Seahawks

756
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 3: to be this kind of good around Sam Darnold.

757
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,240
Speaker 4: But this is mostly a Sam Darnald performance.

758
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, the defense of Seattle is giving Matt Stafford a

759
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 3: hard time, as is the expectation, but Donald Darnald is

760
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 3: doing this without many training wheels. In this particular situation,

761
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,839
Speaker 3: you could argue that the training wheels are jass n right.

762
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 3: If I had that guy, maybe I could throw a

763
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 3: touchdown passing the NFL or something like that. It's an

764
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 3: easy argument to make, but this is the case an

765
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:52,319
Speaker 3: interesting case as to can't do you really need to

766
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 3: draft a quarterback and consider him to be your franchise

767
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 3: guy or are you better served in the roster building

768
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 3: process finding one of these reclamation project types and building

769
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 3: the best possible roster around a quarterback with NFL experience.

770
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,400
Speaker 3: I think it's really really interesting to see what Seattle's

771
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 3: doing well.

772
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,399
Speaker 2: There are so many elements to that that you just said.

773
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 2: Because again, i'll throw my favorite team under the bus.

774
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 2: It's widely reported that Tom Brady made it clear to

775
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 2: the Raiders this year that he wanted Gino Smith to

776
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 2: be the quarterback rather than Sam Donald. So that's a

777
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 2: massive mistake by Tom Brady, right, I mean, just look

778
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 2: at the way that we're seeing this thing play out.

779
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,879
Speaker 2: That's just a mistake. Sam Donald is playing incredibly well,

780
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 2: and you're right, like, here's the hard thing because part

781
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,359
Speaker 2: of one of the things that we saw coming into

782
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,720
Speaker 2: the playoffs where all of these graphics showing every single

783
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 2: playoff quarterback except for one was drafted in the first

784
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,840
Speaker 2: round of the NFL draft, and yes, Sam Donald was

785
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 2: a third overall pick. So then the question is with

786
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 2: Sam Donald, is he really a reclamation project or did

787
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 2: he just play for organizations that Frankly kept trying to

788
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,879
Speaker 2: ruin him over and over and over again, Like how

789
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 2: much of it is player versus system? How much of

790
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,439
Speaker 2: it is a coach's ability to get the most out

791
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 2: of them, Because Frankly you know, we're looking at Sam

792
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 2: Darnold who had multiple failures, and he's not the only one.

793
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 2: I mean, Baker Mayfield had failure after failure. Now he's

794
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 2: become one of the better quarterbacks in the NFL. Right,

795
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 2: Like we see this failure might be a hard way

796
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 2: to work it, but you understand what I'm saying. I

797
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 2: think that there is some element in this where I

798
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 2: don't know, is it nature versus nurture when it comes

799
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 2: to some of these quarterbacks. Is it is it you

800
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 2: need a supreme talent or is it you need to

801
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 2: find the supreme talent somebody else couldn't get the most

802
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 2: out of it. I don't think there's a right answer. I

803
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 2: do think that it's a fifty three man game, and

804
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 2: we talk about this a lot. Buck Like, I think

805
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 2: everybody comes in and says, the quarterback will be my favor. No,

806
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 2: the quarterback will not. You need to draft really well

807
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 2: year in and year out, over and over and over

808
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 2: again until you build a solid roster. I do also

809
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 2: believe that you have to have a talented quarterback to win.

810
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 3: I speaking of talented quarterbacks who can give you a

811
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 3: chance to win. I love the idea that that Matt

812
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 3: Stafford and DeVante Adams are going to be chasing in

813
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 3: this game because it's going to give us a really,

814
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 3: really fun show. I think to watch the Rams have

815
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,400
Speaker 3: to battle back in this because they are certainly capable

816
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 3: as they move across midfield against Seattle that despite being

817
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 3: down eleven. I think that there's there's a couple of

818
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,920
Speaker 3: different elements to this. And you started this conversation with

819
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 3: Vikings fans and I know we're going to talk about

820
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 3: the raybel thing you teased a little later because we

821
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 3: have plenty of time to work with throughout the course

822
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 3: of this show. But Vikings fans, man, you have to

823
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 3: the Sam Darnold did the Super Bowl thing. That's to

824
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 3: be worth worse case for there, right all right, our

825
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 3: quarterback developing coach made a decision, a critical decision on

826
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 3: the quarterback with a team that's in a window to

827
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 3: win a championship if you're Minnesota, and he may have

828
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 3: picked wrong.

829
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 2: I mean, right now, it certainly looks like you did.

830
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 2: There's absolutely no proof of concept that J. J. McCarthy

831
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,959
Speaker 2: can be an effective starting an effective not a great,

832
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 2: just an effective starting quarterback in the NFL. There's absolutely

833
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 2: no proof that there can be consistently quarterback play from

834
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,800
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy that puts you constantly in the playoff conversation.

835
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 2: Sam Donald has won fourteen games in back to back years.

836
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 2: And for whatever the meltdown was that we saw at

837
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 2: the end of last year, and I get it that

838
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 2: that hurt everybody's feelings and everybody felt like that was

839
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 2: who he is again. Nineteen to twenty seven, two ninety one,

840
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 2: three touchdowns and we're not even to the fourth quarter.

841
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 2: We'll keep you updated on the game. Plus, what does

842
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 2: Mike Rabel's success mean for everybody that didn't bring him in?

843
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,879
Speaker 2: We'll tell you next fucking fits on Fox Sports Radio.

844
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

845
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 2: Matt Stafford obviously heard me given Sam Donald all the

846
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 2: praise because now, good lord, this is just an offensive

847
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 2: explosion thirty one twenty six. As you just heard Steve

848
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 2: Disager tell you. Stafford thirteen to twenty one for two

849
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,720
Speaker 2: sixty five and three touchdowns, Sam Donald nineteen to twenty

850
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 2: seven for two ninety one three touchdowns. These two quarterbacks

851
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:06,280
Speaker 2: are putting on clinics. Buck, as we look at two offenses,

852
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,399
Speaker 2: you couldn't have a day where we saw two games

853
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,680
Speaker 2: that felt more opposite Bucking fits hanging out with the

854
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,399
Speaker 2: un Fox Sports Radio Buck Rising Jason Fitz. We watched

855
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 2: an AFC championship game where first downs felt like it

856
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 2: was pulling teeth. First downs like just getting around the

857
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 2: corner for a four yard run felt like it was

858
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,640
Speaker 2: a breath of fresh air. And now we are watching,

859
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 2: particularly in this third quarter, two quarterbacks putting out masterpiece performances,

860
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 2: wide receivers getting open and going off defenses that just

861
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 2: can't seem to be in the right position, over and

862
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 2: over and over again. Points everywhere, the extra point good.

863
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 2: Thirty one twenty seven, two minutes to go in the

864
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 2: third quarter. This this is electric. This is that cliche

865
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 2: moment where we all say this, but it's real. I

866
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 2: wish this was the super Bowl we were watching.

867
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 3: Well, and that's I mean, that's the fear right that

868
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 3: we get a better NFC Championship game than we do

869
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 3: an actual super Bowl, because this has a lot of

870
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 3: the makings of Seattle or La. Whichever one gets there

871
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 3: is just gonna thump the Patriots, who are doing this

872
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 3: against the league's easiest schedule this year. As they've been

873
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,959
Speaker 3: told many times over who have done this with as

874
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 3: lucky a path as I think you could possibly devise,

875
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 3: given the bo Nick's circumstance and CJ. Stroud malfunctioning and

876
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 3: all these different things that they've been able to survive.

877
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 3: To their credit, you only can win the games that

878
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 3: are in front of you. You can only beat the

879
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 3: opponents that are in front of you. It is not

880
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 3: the Patriots' fault that they have maybe an easier degree

881
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,799
Speaker 3: of difficulty than just about any team we've ever seen

882
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,359
Speaker 3: go through the modern day AFC, given that their path

883
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:55,720
Speaker 3: also did not include Patrick Mahomes, Lebar Jackson, Joe Burrow,

884
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 3: or any of these fire breathing dragon quarterbacks that we

885
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 3: typically associate with sitting at the top of the conference there.

886
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 3: I hope that this is not the best game of

887
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 3: the rest of the football season. I hope that the

888
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 3: Super Bowl is highly competitive. I feel like the Super

889
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 3: Bowl will be highly competitive, if for no other reason

890
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 3: than a talent advantage that the NFC will have over

891
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:24,320
Speaker 3: the Patriots might be negated by the ability to situationally

892
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 3: football your way into a more competitive game, even if

893
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,240
Speaker 3: you end up falling short if you're New England.

894
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 4: Because I do think that they will have. Man, I

895
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 4: don't know.

896
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 3: I don't even know if you could argue a coaching

897
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 3: advantage for New England given the two head coaches on

898
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:39,879
Speaker 3: either side of this thing.

899
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 4: In the NFC Championship game.

900
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:49,320
Speaker 3: That's such a fascinating tactical conversation between either of these teams,

901
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,560
Speaker 3: whichever one ends up advancing, because I just I don't

902
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 3: know who would be viewed as the better coaching staff

903
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 3: in that game against Mike Grabil and the New England Patriots.

904
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 2: Well, and look, somebody tell me the other day, and

905
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 2: I think it's a pretty good comp that Mike McDonald,

906
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 2: not the Dubie brother, but the head coach of the

907
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 2: Seattle Seahawks is the Sean McVay on the defensive side

908
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 2: of the ball. Like he's just a savant that dials

909
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 2: up things that absolutely can't be stopped. I get that,

910
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,319
Speaker 2: but certainly the Rams are taking advantage of it right now.

911
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 2: Right so I want to say, like to your point, well,

912
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 2: no matter what you know, the NFC is going to

913
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,320
Speaker 2: have a coaching advantage, But I am watching Sean McVay

914
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 2: just absolutely slice and dice the McDonald defense. This game

915
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 2: is not a defensive struggle at all. Kudos to the

916
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 2: ability for Seattle to continue to put up points. By god,

917
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 2: they need to put up points. I mean, the fact

918
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,960
Speaker 2: that we are still in the third quarter and Seattle's

919
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,240
Speaker 2: put up thirty one points and it's not a comfortable

920
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 2: lead is telling to the way that this game is

921
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 2: playing out, you know, so, I think, honestly, I'm a

922
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 2: little surprised that we're at this point where the Seattle's

923
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 2: defense doesn't happen, especially after the first half, doesn't really

924
00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 2: have a good answer for anything that we're seeing here

925
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,279
Speaker 2: from you know, the Rams Offensively, this game is just

926
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 2: this game is wild, and that's everything we thought it

927
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 2: would be. I continue to go back to throughout the

928
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 2: course of the year, this has been the two best teams,

929
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:13,760
Speaker 2: So the fact that we're getting the best game doesn't

930
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 2: really surprise me. I'm not going to call the Super

931
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 2: Bowl blowout today. I think many people will, but I'm

932
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 2: not going to call the Super Bowl will blow out

933
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 2: today because I actually think that the coaching staff overall,

934
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:26,440
Speaker 2: not just Mike Rable, but Josh mc daniels and everybody

935
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 2: else in New England. I think that coaching staff is

936
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 2: capable of game planning against basically anybody, so you know,

937
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,239
Speaker 2: but that doesn't take away from the fact that these

938
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:36,840
Speaker 2: two teams know each other incredibly well, these two coaches

939
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 2: know each other incredibly well, and everybody is just absolutely

940
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 2: lights out in this game so far. We're about the

941
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 2: third quarter is coming to an end. By the way,

942
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 2: thirty one to twenty seven is where we will be

943
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:47,279
Speaker 2: at the end of the third quarter.

944
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's also something Lee just sent this, our

945
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 3: producer lead back in Los Angeles just sent this to

946
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,320
Speaker 3: the group text with all of us like the miscues

947
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,760
Speaker 3: that Seattle's defense is having on top of not playing

948
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 3: their best game requel and with the dropped interception on

949
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 3: third down followed by an unsportsman like penalty after the

950
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:07,880
Speaker 3: fact I'm reading from a tweet from Rob Guerrera on Twitter,

951
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 3: unsportsman like penalty after the fact to give the Rams

952
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 3: a first down, followed by giving up a deep touchdown

953
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 3: pass on the very next play. Rieq Willan, who was

954
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,360
Speaker 3: talked about as a trade candidate for Seattle because he

955
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 3: didn't necessarily fit Mike McDonald's scheme, but they found ways

956
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 3: to get him on the field throughout the course of

957
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,280
Speaker 3: the season. Because he's just too talented of a player

958
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 3: to not figure out. But that I mean, you have

959
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 3: to be mentally dialed in, and the idea that you're

960
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,600
Speaker 3: out there committing taunting penalties that ultimately lead to touchdowns

961
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 3: against a divisional opponent, man, like.

962
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 4: You just got to lock in.

963
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,800
Speaker 3: And I wish there was a more analytical way to

964
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 3: have the discussion or a sexier way to talk about football,

965
00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 3: but like it just comes down to who makes fewer

966
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 3: mistakes than the other team in these situations. You can't

967
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,880
Speaker 3: be the guy making the mistakes in a one score

968
00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,800
Speaker 3: game against a quarterback that you know can kill you

969
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,000
Speaker 3: on any given up opportunity should you open the door

970
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,320
Speaker 3: for him a crack. And that's exactly what Seattle's defense

971
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:09,360
Speaker 3: has done now to like your point to Sam Donald

972
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 3: and the offense's credit, they're keeping pace with the Rams

973
00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 3: in ways that I don't think many people expected this

974
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,960
Speaker 3: game to play out that way. Maybe it still ends

975
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,279
Speaker 3: with Seattle moving on the way that most of us thought.

976
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 3: I happen to pick the Rams this Friday when we

977
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 3: were talking about these games here locally, and I think

978
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 3: we talked about it last night when you and I

979
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 3: were together on Fox Sports Radio. But this is just

980
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 3: you're putting more pressure on Sam Darnold to have one

981
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 3: of these moments that we all fear Sam Darnald might

982
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 3: have if you can't get a defensive stop.

983
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:44,160
Speaker 2: By the way, to your point with Reek on the sideline,

984
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 2: you saw Seattle defensive players going at him. So there

985
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,719
Speaker 2: is now on the sideline just to level it. And

986
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 2: you certainly you've covered the game in person so much

987
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,880
Speaker 2: for the Titans. You've been close to sideline so often.

988
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 2: When you start to see this trickle into sideline, you know,

989
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,120
Speaker 2: just straight up arguments. You know, when coaches are separating

990
00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 2: players because of the way they're playing and the things

991
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 2: that they're doing, that can either be a great wake

992
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 2: up call or that can be the sort of thing

993
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 2: that totally turns into a fractured a fractured approach. So

994
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 2: we'll see how that plays moving forward. I'm stunned only

995
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,160
Speaker 2: in the sense that if I had told you you're right,

996
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 2: we picked opposite on both games. You actually picked to

997
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 2: New England and you picked the Rams. I picked Denver

998
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,920
Speaker 2: and I picked Seattle. Coming into this, if I had

999
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:35,399
Speaker 2: told you that the Rams had put up twenty seven

1000
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 2: points in the first three quarters. I think we would,

1001
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 2: for the most part, feel like that meant that Seattle

1002
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 2: was probably trailing, and instead Seattle's actually been fairly in

1003
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 2: control for most of this Their offense just has always

1004
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,799
Speaker 2: had the answer. I think it's interesting, though, because you're right,

1005
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 2: we just expect that at some point what we're gonna

1006
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:56,640
Speaker 2: get is a key mistake from Sam Donold. I genuinely

1007
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,640
Speaker 2: wonder what it's gonna take for that to no longer

1008
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 2: be our mindset. Is it a win in this game?

1009
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 2: Is that and up? Is it a Super Bowl win?

1010
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:04,840
Speaker 4: Like?

1011
00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 2: What's it going to take for all of us to

1012
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 2: forgive whatever Sam Donald has been in some of these

1013
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 2: moments and then accept who Sam Donald is right now?

1014
00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 4: I think he has to win a Super Bowl. You know,

1015
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:21,960
Speaker 4: I hate to put the bar so high, but is it?

1016
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,600
Speaker 3: Shouldn't it be that high in that particular kind of situation,

1017
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 3: Like think about the career arc for this dude. All right,

1018
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 3: as the third overall pick in twenty eighteen, the way

1019
00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 3: that he's bounced around. He loses a quarterback competition in

1020
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 3: Carolina at a Baker Mayfield, who then gets benched for

1021
00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 3: Sam Donald. Later they both go their separate ways. He's

1022
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 3: had career rehabilitation stints with the forty nine ers, he

1023
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:47,160
Speaker 3: has had all kind of different opportunities to try and

1024
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 3: get this thing back on track, and it's taken him

1025
00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:53,239
Speaker 3: basically until last year to do just that. And even

1026
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,760
Speaker 3: then he had the stigma around him of oh, there's

1027
00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 3: the guy that sees ghosts. He just happened to do

1028
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 3: it at the very into the season against the Lions

1029
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,000
Speaker 3: in a game that would have decided the division, and

1030
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,440
Speaker 3: in the wildcard round as a road team against this

1031
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:15,759
Speaker 3: Rams defense that right now he is very, very efficient against. Now,

1032
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,319
Speaker 3: he just took a pretty brutal sack there to play

1033
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 3: prior on first and ten. So maybe you know this

1034
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 3: is the announcer's curse type of situation. You start talking

1035
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,359
Speaker 3: about these things at all the start and it's all

1036
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:28,880
Speaker 3: of a sudden, whatever you're talking about goes the opposite direction.

1037
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 3: But I do think that Sam Darnold has to definitively

1038
00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 3: show people that he can do this by winning a

1039
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:38,799
Speaker 3: super Bowl, because if he gets to the Super Bowl,

1040
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 3: for example, they're huge favorites, right we all expect them

1041
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,759
Speaker 3: to be huge favorites should they advance, whether it be

1042
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:46,959
Speaker 3: the Rams or the Seahawks. We've talked about this several

1043
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:50,239
Speaker 3: times throughout the course of the show today. If he

1044
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 3: comes up short against a New England Patriots team that's lesser,

1045
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 3: then he's Jimmy G. Right, then he's Garoppolo. Where you're

1046
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,160
Speaker 3: a couple of throws away from beating the Chief in

1047
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:01,919
Speaker 3: the Super Bowl, but you just can't get it done.

1048
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:05,439
Speaker 4: Like that's that's that's fine, that's all well and good.

1049
00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:07,760
Speaker 3: But think about how quickly things fell off for Garoppolo,

1050
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:09,240
Speaker 3: Raider's legend, Jimmy Garoppolo.

1051
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,919
Speaker 2: No, I've said it many times. If that fourth quarter

1052
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:16,440
Speaker 2: plays out differently, what does it look like for Jimmy G.

1053
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,959
Speaker 2: It's just it's amazing how one quarter of that game,

1054
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 2: where it was really his defense that melted down, changed

1055
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 2: so much of the perception we have. Speaking of perception,

1056
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:30,640
Speaker 2: Mike Vrabel is obviously headed to the Super Bowl and

1057
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:34,480
Speaker 2: that has many people stunned. Obviously, everybody looking around trying

1058
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:36,279
Speaker 2: to figure it out. By the way, I don't forget it.

1059
00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 2: Have you ever wiped with the piece of drap, tried

1060
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 2: toilet paper. I'm gonna learn how to speak. That's my

1061
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 2: goal today is to learn how to speak. Have you

1062
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 2: ever wiped with a piece of dry toilet paper and

1063
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,160
Speaker 2: wondered is this as good as it gets? It's not

1064
00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 2: switched to life changing wet extra large flushable Dude Wipes

1065

Speaker 2: retailers nationwide. Dude Wipes best clean pants down. Mike Rabel

1067
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:00,960
Speaker 2: is headed to the Super Bow. And when we start

1068
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,680
Speaker 2: talking about perception and we start talking about everybody else,

1069
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:07,400
Speaker 2: let's remind the entire league that the Titans fired him

1070
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,520
Speaker 2: and the entire NFL had a shot at him. What's

1071
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:12,600
Speaker 2: it say about everybody else that he's headed to the

1072
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 2: Super Bowl with New England. We'll answer that question next.

1073

1092
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,800
Speaker 2: down thirty one to twenty seven with nine minutes to

1093
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 2: go in the game, looks like we're going to be

1094
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:12,960
Speaker 2: set up for an epic finish. Buck As we mentioned

1095
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,600
Speaker 2: to start the show, half the Super Bowl is known.

1096
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 2: The New England Patriots are headed to the Super Bowl

1097
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 2: only a couple of years after being one of the

1098
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 2: worst teams in the league after a one year trial

1099
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,680
Speaker 2: essentially with Drod Mayo, and then Mike Rabel comes in

1100
00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 2: as the head coach and in one season everything turns around.

1101
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 2: Now this is the moment where every fan of every

1102
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,399
Speaker 2: team that sucks thinks, why doesn't that happen for my team?

1103
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 2: There are a lot of variables. There are a lot

1104
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,520
Speaker 2: of things that went right for New England. But part

1105
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 2: of this has to be a Mike Rabel conversation. You

1106
00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 2: covered the Tennessee Titans. They fired Mike Vrabel, and ever

1107
00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 2: since they fired Mike Rabel, they've done nothing but chase

1108
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:49,719
Speaker 2: their own tails as an organization. That has to be

1109
00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,239
Speaker 2: noted right now when we're talking about the fact that,

1110
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,479
Speaker 2: you know, frankly, the Patriots are headed to the Super

1111
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:57,839
Speaker 2: Bowl and the Titans are still trying to figure out

1112
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,239
Speaker 2: what the hell their coaching staff is going to look

1113
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:01,240
Speaker 2: like under Robert Salo.

1114
00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:11,320
Speaker 3: Where to even begin with the Tennessee Titans as an organization,

1115
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 3: I think, listen both.

1116
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 4: I want to be fair, okay, because it's easy to

1117
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:19,400
Speaker 4: beat up on them, and they deserve it.

1118
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:23,080
Speaker 3: I want to be clear, they absolutely deserve it because

1119
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:27,919
Speaker 3: they were dopes and they fired a coach that knew

1120
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:31,840
Speaker 3: what he was doing, had a plan, wanted more control,

1121
00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:35,359
Speaker 3: and they decided, you know, just can't handle that big

1122
00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:35,880
Speaker 3: of an ego.

1123
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 4: We can't deal with it. We're going to move on.

1124
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:45,160
Speaker 3: It's easier for Mike Vrabel to win at this rate

1125
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 3: with a more ready made situation than what was at

1126
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 3: the end of Tennessee. Okay, what was at the end

1127
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:55,600
Speaker 3: of Tennessee was three straight years of horrendous drafting that

1128
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,879
Speaker 3: saw John Robinson get fired, a forced marriage with Ryan

1129
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:01,600
Speaker 3: Krthon as a general man who has also since been fired,

1130
00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 3: a situation where AJ Brown was traded out from under him,

1131
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:08,600
Speaker 3: and we all remember the draft night video in the

1132
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,800
Speaker 3: Titans war room where Rabel gets up, starts huffing and puffing,

1133
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 3: throws a shaw in and kind of marches around the

1134
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:18,640
Speaker 3: room a little bit, clearly displeased with the AJ Brown trade.

1135
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 3: That started this domino effect of stupidity that's been the

1136
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:27,359
Speaker 3: Tennessee Titans organization. But here's the difference between where Mike

1137
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:31,560
Speaker 3: Vrabel is now and where Mike Vrabel was. Its ownership,

1138
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 3: Amy Adams Strunk can't hold a candle to Bob Craft

1139
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:40,600
Speaker 3: and the ability to run an NFL organization. Amy Adams

1140
00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 3: Strunk is the controlling owner of the Tennessee Titans. For

1141
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:44,239
Speaker 3: people who may not be aware, why would you be.

1142
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 3: They haven't mattered, God knows, they don't matter at this

1143
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 3: point in time since they fired Mike, and we're winning

1144
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:52,240
Speaker 3: at a rate that was excellent. They had six straight

1145
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:56,160
Speaker 3: winning seasons during that time period from Mike Malarkey and

1146
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,760
Speaker 3: Mike Vrabel, who ultimately elevated them to an AFC Championship

1147
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:05,160
Speaker 3: Game appearance where they fell short. They had a situation

1148
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:09,520
Speaker 3: where Mike is a big personality, He's somebody that you

1149
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:12,719
Speaker 3: got to navigate around, and also he doesn't want to

1150
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:15,960
Speaker 3: bother with things that don't directly impact the winning of

1151
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:18,400
Speaker 3: football games, and what the Tennessee.

1152
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:19,279
Speaker 4: Titans were asking him to do it.

1153
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:22,640
Speaker 3: We're basically micro managing him at the end, because they

1154
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:25,879
Speaker 3: thought that he had become, for lack of a better term,

1155
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 3: too big for his breeches, and for some reason, there

1156
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:31,920
Speaker 3: was enough ego in that building outside of Mike Rabel

1157
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 3: that they felt that they had that they had to

1158
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,319
Speaker 3: remind Mike Vrabel that they were the ones in charge.

1159
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:39,280
Speaker 3: But they're not really right now. They just look like clowns.

1160
00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:42,880
Speaker 3: And so it's one of those things where this is

1161
00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:46,360
Speaker 3: the difference between good businesses and bad businesses, good teams

1162
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:51,400
Speaker 3: and bad teams, any level of walk of life that

1163
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,560
Speaker 3: you want to ascribe this to. It comes down to

1164
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 3: management and how that trickles down to the rest of

1165
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:01,280
Speaker 3: your organization. The management in Tennessee, the ownership in Tennessee

1166
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:04,800
Speaker 3: failed and could not handle the idea that Mike Vrabel

1167
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:07,359
Speaker 3: knew better than they did on how to run their

1168
00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:10,440
Speaker 3: football team, and so they fired him. And they fired

1169
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:12,520
Speaker 3: him at a time when it was convenient, and Derrick

1170
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:14,440
Speaker 3: Henry's time in Tennessee was coming to an end, and

1171
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:16,720
Speaker 3: Ryan Tannehill's time and Tennessee was coming to an end.

1172
00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:18,240
Speaker 4: So it felt like clean.

1173
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 3: Break, new stadium, new Titans, will figure this out. Look

1174
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 3: at Brian Callahan, doesn't he have a great smile? Look

1175
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:28,080
Speaker 3: at Will Levis, doesn't he make really good mayonnaise commercials?

1176
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,120
Speaker 3: And that was what they went all in on instead

1177
00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:35,040
Speaker 3: of Mike freaking Vrabel. And you saw the entire house

1178
00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:39,160
Speaker 3: of cards crumble around them, and at every turn they

1179
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:41,880
Speaker 3: are a national embarrassment every time Mike Vrabel wins a

1180
00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:44,240
Speaker 3: football game and he's back in the super Bowl, because

1181
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:47,040
Speaker 3: that's the guy that you couldn't figure out how to handle.

1182
00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 4: So and that's just what it comes down to for me.

1183
00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:54,200
Speaker 2: Part of that, like, look, there were a lot of

1184
00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 2: smart football people that, long before Rabilble was fired, kept saying, no,

1185
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 2: he's the thing that the Titans together. Nationally, there were

1186
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:05,000
Speaker 2: a lot of smart football people. I think sometimes frustration

1187
00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 2: comes in when you're losing. Now, I do want to

1188
00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 2: be clear here, Buck, I do think there's a fair

1189
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:12,480
Speaker 2: thing to say Mike Vrabel looks much better as a

1190
00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 2: head coach when he has Drake May as his quarterback

1191
00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 2: and Josh McDaniels is his offensive coordinator. He would not

1192
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 2: have Drake May as his quarterback if he'd remained at Tennessee,

1193
00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 2: and likely never would have hired Josh McDaniels if he

1194
00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 2: remained at Tennessee either. So I do think that that

1195
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 2: has to be part of the equation that, you know,

1196
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 2: while we're looking at success now and saying could have

1197
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 2: had it here, life is just so much better when

1198
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,600
Speaker 2: you have one of the best young quarterbacks in the NFL.

1199
00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:41,400
Speaker 2: Even though Drake May didn't play like it today, I

1200
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:44,080
Speaker 2: get that, But I mean, Drake May is an MVP

1201
00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 2: finalist for a reason, right So Josh McDaniels is one

1202
00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 2: of the best offensive coordinators in the NFL, even if

1203
00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,480
Speaker 2: he's a crummy head coach, right like it. Just these

1204
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 2: these elements together are part of why there's so much

1205
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,520
Speaker 2: success for Vrabel. So I'm not taking away from the

1206
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:01,800
Speaker 2: success he had. I just always have a hard time.

1207
00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:03,920
Speaker 2: It's like every time people say the Bear should have

1208
00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:07,400
Speaker 2: drafted Mahomes, Yes, they could have drafted Mahomes. Would they

1209
00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:09,320
Speaker 2: have had Andy Reid? And would they have had Alex

1210
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 2: Smith to help him become a better problem? Wol they

1211
00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 2: had all these different like, No, the answers noted all

1212
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:15,520
Speaker 2: those things. So would Mahomes have been Mahomes if he

1213
00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 2: was a Chicago Bear? Who knows? So would Rabel be

1214
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:22,200
Speaker 2: Rabel if he was still the head coach of the Titans,

1215
00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:25,840
Speaker 2: who knows? I do think that there is some element

1216
00:59:25,920 --> 00:59:26,040
Speaker 2: of that.

1217
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:29,920
Speaker 3: No. I think Mike Rabel is Mike Rabel anywhere he goes, right,

1218
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 3: but the differentially, well.

1219
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,160
Speaker 2: Do you think he's Do you think the Titans are

1220
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:36,920
Speaker 2: a super Bowl team this year? If they kept Mike Rabel,

1221
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,000
Speaker 2: do you think they would be in the same caliber

1222
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:40,160
Speaker 2: of Super Bowl contender?

1223
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:47,120
Speaker 3: That's a really tough question for me to answer, because

1224
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 3: they were when he was here, Like they were on

1225
00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:52,560
Speaker 3: the scene before the Bengals arrived. Right now, it took

1226
00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,840
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow to unseat them in a AFC divisional round

1227
00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:57,960
Speaker 3: where the Titans, with a number one seed, Ryan Tannehill

1228
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:01,640
Speaker 3: throws three interceptions and all of a sudden, the whole

1229
01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:03,919
Speaker 3: thing comes crashing down to earth and Mike Vrabel's coaching

1230
01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 3: a team that loses seven straight games in twenty twenty two,

1231
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:11,640
Speaker 3: which started the downfall of Mike Vrabel in Tennessee. I

1232
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:15,360
Speaker 3: feel like I can confidently say that the Tennessee Titans

1233
01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 3: would be a contender if Mike Vrabel was still the coach.

1234
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:21,760
Speaker 3: Would they be in the Super Bowl? Definitively? I just

1235
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 3: I can't answer that in a straight way because I don't.

1236
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:25,960
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't.

1237
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:29,600
Speaker 3: Is their quarterback plan still Levis at the time. Ironically enough,

1238
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 3: Will Levis was more of a disaster under Brian Callahan,

1239
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:36,520
Speaker 3: offensive minded former offensive coordinator of the Joe Burrow and

1240
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:38,880
Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Bengals than he ever was under Mike Rable.

1241
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 3: So I and Tim Kelly, who was the offensive coordinator

1242
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 3: when they drafted Will Levis here, I don't know that

1243
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 3: the Levis thing goes any better. I don't think it

1244
01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 3: gets much worse than it did under Callahan, who just

1245
01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:53,160
Speaker 3: completely lost control of the situation and very much lost

1246
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 3: the player in the midst of all that because he

1247
01:00:55,800 --> 01:01:01,560
Speaker 3: couldn't properly manage the circumstance. I feel like what is

1248
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:05,680
Speaker 3: probably closer to the truth Fitsie is the idea that

1249
01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:07,880
Speaker 3: Mike Vrabel would end up more in a Mike Tomlin

1250
01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:11,160
Speaker 3: Matt Lafleur type of conversation where they're just banging their

1251
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:14,120
Speaker 3: head on the ceiling. They're not bad enough to be

1252
01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:16,680
Speaker 3: picking one of these top quarterbacks of Drake may A,

1253
01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:19,600
Speaker 3: km Ward, a Trevor Lawrence or something like that to

1254
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:21,800
Speaker 3: be a difference maker. They're just having to piece it

1255
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 3: all together each year to be a ten and seven,

1256
01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:29,800
Speaker 3: nine and eight type of competitive that ultimately doesn't fare

1257
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 3: well in the playoffs. Because it is fair to note

1258
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 3: that Mike Vrabel won two playoff games as the Titans

1259
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:38,320
Speaker 3: head coach and did not win any more playoff games.

1260
01:01:38,560 --> 01:01:40,920
Speaker 3: They did make appearances, but did not win another playoff

1261
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 3: game after that twenty nineteen run.

1262
01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot of if this then that I

1263
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:50,040
Speaker 2: just don't trust the Titans to have gotten a quarterback. Right.

1264
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:53,480
Speaker 2: We've got updates for you in the NFC Championship game

1265
01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:55,360
Speaker 2: and more. Steve di seger get us caught up on

1266
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:57,840
Speaker 2: what's going on right now on the scoreboard. If this

1267
01:01:57,960 --> 01:01:59,840
Speaker 2: game's wild, Yes, it is a sensation.

1268
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,120
Speaker 7: NFC Championship game going on on Fox TV, and the

1269
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:06,080
Speaker 7: Seahawks are five minutes away from the Super Bowl. They've

1270
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:09,600
Speaker 7: just had a defensive stand and still lead the Rams

1271
01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:12,440
Speaker 7: thirty one twenty seven. The Rams had driven down to

1272
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:16,160
Speaker 7: the six yard line, and after a second down run

1273
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 7: up the middle for no gain and an incomplete right

1274
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:21,720
Speaker 7: and an incomplete back of the end zone, the Rams

1275
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:24,040
Speaker 7: turn it over on downs at the six. So in

1276
01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:27,200
Speaker 7: near seven and a half minute LA drive gets no points,

1277
01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:32,080
Speaker 7: fourteen plays eighty four yards. Just now Seattle is taking

1278
01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 7: over at its own six four point fifty four remaining

1279
01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:38,120
Speaker 7: in the NFC title game. The winner goes to the

1280
01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:40,280
Speaker 7: Bay Area for the Super Bowl. At a couple weeks

1281
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:44,560
Speaker 7: against AFC champion New England, the Patriots eliminated the Broncos

1282
01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:47,760
Speaker 7: in Denver ten to seven. Pats only td came in

1283
01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,960
Speaker 7: the first half after a fumbloy by quarterback Jared Stidham,

1284
01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:54,360
Speaker 7: who also threw a late interception. Drake May just eighty

1285
01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:57,640
Speaker 7: six yards passing. He was sacked five more times. However,

1286
01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 7: on his first seven carries today he had eight yards

1287
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:04,080
Speaker 7: rushing at a score. The Packers new defensive coordinator is

1288
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:07,720
Speaker 7: Jonathan Gannon, recent Cardinals head coach the Giants new defensive

1289
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:11,240
Speaker 7: coordinator will reportedly be Denard Wilson from the Titans, and

1290
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:13,880
Speaker 7: the Giants are due to hire Chris Horden from Baltimore

1291
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:17,400
Speaker 7: to be their special teams coordinator and assistant head coach.

1292
01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:20,880

01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:10,840
Speaker 2: it they're down thirty one to. TWENTY seven I know

1326
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,000
Speaker 2: i said to. You earlier i'm the guy that always

1327
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:14,760
Speaker 2: says take, the points take the POINTS because i. LIKE

1328
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:17,439
Speaker 2: points i don't understand not taking the points there only

1329
01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:20,520
Speaker 2: because if you're down thirty one thirty and you Give

1330
01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:23,320
Speaker 2: the seahawks back, the ball no, matter what you're still

1331
01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 2: going to be in one. Score territory even if it

1332
01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:29,120
Speaker 2: goes terribly, for you And the seahawks score, a touchdown

1333
01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:31,240
Speaker 2: then you're a touchdown and a two point conversion away

1334
01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:33,920
Speaker 2: from tying the football game as. It, stands now if

1335
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:36,480
Speaker 2: you give, a touchdown you're out of. This thing you

1336
01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:38,200
Speaker 2: have to hold them to a. Field goal you got

1337
01:05:38,320 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 2: to hope that you hold them, in general which you

1338
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:42,920
Speaker 2: know maybe. THEY will I just i think it's curious

1339
01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 2: the weird aggressiveness to me to go for it on fourth.

1340
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,240
Speaker 2: And four it wasn't fourth, and inches it was fourth.

1341
01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:50,800
Speaker 2: And goal to go at about, THE four i just

1342
01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:52,240
Speaker 2: don't understand the aggressiveness in.

1343
01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,680
Speaker 3: Spots, today well this is what we were talking About

1344
01:05:54,720 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 3: With sean payton earlier in, the show right with a

1345
01:05:57,560 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 3: critical fourth down decision to go for it that blew

1346
01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,640
Speaker 3: up in their face and ultimately turn the game where

1347
01:06:02,680 --> 01:06:04,160
Speaker 3: it could have been a ten to zero lead in

1348
01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:06,720
Speaker 3: favor Of, the broncos and ten points was all it

1349
01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:10,800
Speaker 3: took to go To The. Super bowl ON the afc side,

1350
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:15,720
Speaker 3: Of things so for coaches, in general, and listen far

1351
01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:20,800
Speaker 3: be it for me to question the competency and the

1352
01:06:20,880 --> 01:06:24,880
Speaker 3: decision Making Of sean Payton and, sean McVay Two super bowl,

1353
01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:28,640
Speaker 3: champion coaches two of the best at their craft in these. Particular,

1354
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 3: situations obviously they also have support from the booth above

1355
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:35,840
Speaker 3: them that are informing, their decisions giving them the different

1356
01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:39,440
Speaker 3: things to way to determine these kind, of things and

1357
01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:44,280
Speaker 3: ultimately both air on the side of over aggressive in.

1358
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:46,440
Speaker 3: This spot it just depends on if you're going to

1359
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:50,440
Speaker 3: be philosophically the same team in the regular season or

1360
01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:52,400
Speaker 3: in the postseason that you were in the, regular, season

1361
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:54,880
Speaker 3: right because this is indicative Of Who sean Payton and

1362
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:58,000
Speaker 3: sean McVay are in the. Regular season the question is

1363
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:01,240
Speaker 3: do you adopt do you change your strategy at all

1364
01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:05,400
Speaker 3: once you get into postseason play to potentially be a bit,

1365
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:08,280
Speaker 3: More CONSERVATIVE and i think that people just don't even

1366
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:12,760
Speaker 3: like the stigma of conservatism in, these spots but rather

1367
01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:15,800
Speaker 3: just don't air on the side of, hyper aggressiveness which

1368
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:16,320
Speaker 3: it seems.

1369
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:16,400
Speaker 5: To.

1370
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:19,480
Speaker 3: Be now the argument, could be if this is not

1371
01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:21,000
Speaker 3: the point where you're going to go for it in,

1372
01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:23,560
Speaker 3: these situations when are you ever gonna go? For it

1373
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:25,640
Speaker 3: you don't know how many chances you're gonna get at games.

1374
01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:27,840
Speaker 3: Like this this is the biggest spot for the right

1375
01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:30,480
Speaker 3: to play in the biggest game of. THE year i

1376
01:07:30,680 --> 01:07:33,240
Speaker 3: just don't think that's logical enough for me, to say

1377
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:35,720
Speaker 3: you pass on the three points and keep yourself in

1378
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 3: a one.

1379
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:36,200
Speaker 4: Score.

1380
01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:40,600
Speaker 2: GAME yeah i think it's interesting because now, you're right

1381
01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:43,080
Speaker 2: there is sort of, this oh how could you ever take?

1382
01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:45,320
Speaker 2: The POINT so i feel like you.

1383
01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:47,800
Speaker 4: Just got more like offended kicking field goals and.

1384
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:52,240
Speaker 2: Punning, ANYMORE yeah, i mean, my god it's you're a thousand.

1385
01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:55,160
Speaker 2: Percent right but to ME and i, get, that, like hey,

1386
01:07:55,400 --> 01:07:57,160
Speaker 2: you know the logic is going to be my defense

1387
01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:59,680
Speaker 2: needs to make, A stop i'm gonna get decent, Field

1388
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:02,400
Speaker 2: position we're gonna be okay all of. These things but

1389
01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:05,240
Speaker 2: we've already seen a couple of Really Nice kenneth. Walker

1390
01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:07,080
Speaker 2: plays one was a run and one was a little

1391
01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 2: pass that he turned into a first down as it sits,

1392
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:11,880
Speaker 2: Right now seattle sitting in a timeout on a third,

1393
01:08:11,880 --> 01:08:13,560
Speaker 2: And eight so maybe they're gonna get the. Ball back

1394
01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:17,120
Speaker 2: maybe everything's gonna Come Up. Roses sunshine but again to,

1395
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:19,479
Speaker 2: this point even if the defense gets a stop and

1396
01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:21,719
Speaker 2: they get the ball, right back they need. A touchdown

1397
01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:23,720
Speaker 2: if you take in, the three all you need in,

1398
01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:26,160
Speaker 2: the game if you get, a stop all you need

1399
01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:28,759
Speaker 2: is a field goal. To, WIN like, i like making

1400
01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:32,000
Speaker 2: the rest of the, game better better odds. For me That's,

1401
01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:36,760
Speaker 2: why like, to me it's, not conservative it's just doing the.

1402
01:08:36,920 --> 01:08:39,719
Speaker 2: Right thing when you play out fifty two, next steps

1403
01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,040
Speaker 2: it's a little bit Of a chess mentality OF am

1404
01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:45,439
Speaker 2: i thinking five. STEPS ahead i feel like sometimes we

1405
01:08:45,560 --> 01:08:47,680
Speaker 2: just get caught up in the moment of we're gonna go,

1406
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,040
Speaker 2: out there we're gonna be the ones that show them

1407
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:52,080
Speaker 2: what this game's. Gonna be we're gonna do it, Our

1408
01:08:52,160 --> 01:08:55,680
Speaker 2: WAY and i, don't know sometimes the easy solution is the.

1409
01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:58,960
Speaker 2: Right solution just take the, dang points especially on the

1410
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:02,120
Speaker 2: road in the end of the championship game when you're down.

1411
01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:05,000
Speaker 2: BY four i just the math on it just doesn't make.

1412
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:07,160
Speaker 2: ANY sense i CAN'T make i can't make any of

1413
01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:10,640
Speaker 2: it make any sense. To, Me, book well this Is.

1414
01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:13,400
Speaker 3: And i'm maybe this is a, stupid question, but like

1415
01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:15,200
Speaker 3: this is a QUESTION that i FEEL that i would

1416
01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:17,920
Speaker 3: want to ask somebody WITH an nfl team as far

1417
01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:21,440
Speaker 3: as how how these things. Are determined are your analytics

1418
01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:24,479
Speaker 3: done in a, vacuum basically like do they do they

1419
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:29,439
Speaker 3: take situations on? Face value or do they apply the

1420
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:34,000
Speaker 3: team's rate of success in third and six plus or

1421
01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:38,080
Speaker 3: fourth and four situations like your individual teams strengths. And

1422
01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:41,720
Speaker 3: weaknesses how do the numbers factor in and inform the

1423
01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:44,479
Speaker 3: decision making or are the numbers done in a vacuum

1424
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:46,960
Speaker 3: to where everybody knows that if you're a fourth an inch,

1425
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:49,240
Speaker 3: of situation you go, for it.

1426
01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 4: Regardless if if You're the raiders Or.

1427
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 3: The, Seahawks, right like that's that's the ANSWER that i

1428
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:58,120
Speaker 3: don't have, To This and i'm maybe it felt too

1429
01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:00,400
Speaker 3: rudimentary to ask of some buddy WITH.

1430
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:03,400
Speaker 4: An nfl organization, before THIS but i feel like it's a. Necessary,

1431
01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:05,560
Speaker 4: question yeah look to.

1432
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:08,000
Speaker 2: That point, You Know, antonio pierce when he was Coaching

1433
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:09,680
Speaker 2: the raiders, last year got a lot of flak for

1434
01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:12,040
Speaker 2: punting on a fourth, and ONE and i was doing

1435
01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:14,840
Speaker 2: a bunch of national interviews with different. Radio stations the

1436
01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:16,680
Speaker 2: number of times it, was like how embarrassing is that

1437
01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:18,640
Speaker 2: you can't? Do that blah blah blah. Blah blah my

1438
01:10:18,760 --> 01:10:20,760
Speaker 2: answer to that, was, no. No no if you Watch

1439
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:22,560
Speaker 2: the raiders, this year they can't convert on fourth. And

1440
01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:25,599
Speaker 2: one it was a historically bad one yard team third,

1441
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:27,680
Speaker 2: and short fourth. And short it was a historically. Bad

1442
01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:31,160
Speaker 2: team that's where analytics don't really always know what your

1443
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,000
Speaker 2: team is good at and what your team's not. Good

1444
01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:35,200
Speaker 2: at and there is a POINT where i mean just

1445
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:37,880
Speaker 2: had the like, you know All the instagram accounts that

1446
01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:39,360
Speaker 2: are out there right now that, were like if this

1447
01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:42,519
Speaker 2: was a, real person if analytics were a real person

1448
01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:45,640
Speaker 2: sitting there pushing their glasses up next, to coaching the

1449
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,240
Speaker 2: analytics series they go. For, it well if we've not

1450
01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 2: converted on third and fourth and short all, YEAR long

1451
01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:52,800
Speaker 2: i don't really give it in what the analytics say in.

1452
01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:56,320
Speaker 2: THESE situations i think a coach needs to take analytics

1453
01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:58,360
Speaker 2: as part of the bucket of the way that they make.

1454
01:10:58,400 --> 01:11:01,799
Speaker 2: Their decisions so if the, petics, SAY go i understand

1455
01:11:01,880 --> 01:11:05,200
Speaker 2: that you want the leaning, towards go but also the

1456
01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:08,559
Speaker 2: coach is getting paid, to coach which means feeling out

1457
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:11,120
Speaker 2: the way that this thing is going and feeling the.

1458
01:11:11,200 --> 01:11:13,120
Speaker 2: Game out and at some point you just got to

1459
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:15,760
Speaker 2: look at your team, and say like, for good a good.

1460
01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:18,360
Speaker 2: End bad like sometimes analytics might tell you not to go.

1461
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:20,760
Speaker 2: For it, it's, like no our fat guys are better

1462
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:22,400
Speaker 2: than their. FAT guys i want to go. FOR it

1463
01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:25,360
Speaker 2: i respect it. EITHER way I just i feel like

1464
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:27,679
Speaker 2: feel of the game has to be a big part.

1465
01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:29,880
Speaker 2: Of it and now, you know as a result of all,

1466
01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:33,320
Speaker 2: of This the seattle managers to convert a big third

1467
01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:35,800
Speaker 2: and long into a. First down we're sitting with three

1468
01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:38,679
Speaker 2: minutes and five. Seconds left they're on second, and long

1469
01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,160
Speaker 2: But the rams are out. Of timeouts buck like the

1470
01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 2: way all of this has gone since he went for

1471
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:45,640
Speaker 2: it on fourth. And short because they've been able to

1472
01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:47,840
Speaker 2: get a couple of, first Downs the rams have no

1473
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,439
Speaker 2: timeouts left. To burn they have three or five to

1474
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:54,479
Speaker 2: go If the seahawks are able to drive this ball down,

1475
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:56,400
Speaker 2: the field like there are a couple of first downs

1476
01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:58,760
Speaker 2: away from winning, the game no matter, what happens and

1477
01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:01,799
Speaker 2: that's all for. The decision no matter what the analytics

1478
01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:04,680
Speaker 2: say to not, kick it just it creates a much.

1479
01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:08,000
Speaker 3: Different environment it's crazy how these games come down to

1480
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:13,800
Speaker 3: so so like just these huge moments that you can't,

1481
01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:15,559
Speaker 3: necessarily predict but that can.

1482
01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:18,720
Speaker 4: Completely turn the tide of. A game i don't Know

1483
01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:19,360
Speaker 4: if i've asked you this.

1484
01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:22,280
Speaker 3: Question before are you a momentum believer or are you somebody,

1485
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:24,160
Speaker 3: WHO'S like i can't, QUANTIFY it i can't, FEEL it

1486
01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:24,519
Speaker 3: i can't.

1487
01:12:24,520 --> 01:12:25,960
Speaker 4: See, IT no i. Believe.

1488
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:27,840
Speaker 2: It momentum you can, have it and then you can

1489
01:12:27,920 --> 01:12:29,280
Speaker 2: lose it in a heartbeat and you're like sort of,

1490
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:31,559
Speaker 2: a biscuit what. Just, Happened yeah I'm a i'm a big.

1491
01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:34,200
Speaker 3: Momentum guy players will tell you to a man that

1492
01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:36,680
Speaker 3: it's that it's everything in these kind. Of moments and

1493
01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:39,519
Speaker 3: he who can capitalize on the momentum is he who wins,

1494
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:42,240
Speaker 3: the game or he who executes enough to be able

1495
01:12:42,320 --> 01:12:45,280
Speaker 3: to capitalize on the momentums who ends up winning. The

1496
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:51,639
Speaker 3: game it's just it's these things have such critical value

1497
01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:53,920
Speaker 3: and you know that these coaches, know it, AND you,

1498
01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:56,360
Speaker 3: i mean how often would you say that you Would

1499
01:12:56,360 --> 01:12:59,080

1502
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,800

1537
01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:44,240
Speaker 2: time they need him to have. Big plays he's been.

1538
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:47,719
Speaker 2: Superstar status and as we sit, Right Now sam donald

1539
01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 2: twenty five at thirty six for three hundred and forty,

1540
01:14:50,160 --> 01:14:53,800
Speaker 2: six yards. Three touchdowns we'll see how aggressive they choose to.

1541
01:14:53,800 --> 01:14:55,880
Speaker 2: Play it on third and seven from the forty yard

1542
01:14:55,960 --> 01:14:58,720
Speaker 2: line and see if, they decide and they do decide to.

1543
01:14:58,800 --> 01:15:02,719
Speaker 2: Keep it donald gets. That's important that, is important.

1544
01:15:02,760 --> 01:15:03,640
Speaker 4: ALL right a.

1545
01:15:03,800 --> 01:15:06,320
Speaker 2: Sack here puts them out of any sort of field,

1546
01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:09,560
Speaker 2: goal range so they will punt the ball back To.

1547
01:15:09,640 --> 01:15:12,120
Speaker 2: The Rams the rams WILL have i, don't know roughly

1548
01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:14,760
Speaker 2: thirty seconds to try and get the entire link to the.

1549
01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:17,280
Speaker 2: Football field so. Four here so you're telling me there's,

1550
01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:18,560
Speaker 2: a chance That's what.

1551
01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:20,800
Speaker 3: I'm saying i've told you how much fun it is

1552
01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:23,760
Speaker 3: To Watch Matt Stafford davante adams chase. This thing we're

1553
01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:26,080
Speaker 3: gonna get it a little bit at. The end no,

1554
01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:31,080
Speaker 3: timeouts obviously as, you mentioned a huge OPPORTUNITY for la

1555
01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:39,000
Speaker 3: to Prevent The seahawks Patriots Rematch super. Bowl situation everything

1556
01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:42,280
Speaker 3: that becomes that is old becomes new. Again fitsy it,

1557
01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:46,400
Speaker 3: feels like even though the faces and the people change for,

1558
01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:48,840
Speaker 3: these franchises it feels like we're on a bit of a.

1559
01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:52,160
Speaker 3: Collision course but we'll See If matt stafford can't do something,

1560
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,479
Speaker 3: about that or if their special teams can give them

1561
01:15:54,520 --> 01:15:57,320
Speaker 3: a legitimate spark for once instead of being actively to.

1562
01:15:57,400 --> 01:16:01,080
Speaker 2: Their, detriment unfortunately a fair catch at the nine yard

1563
01:16:01,120 --> 01:16:02,880
Speaker 2: line means that they got to go ninety one yards

1564
01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:05,000
Speaker 2: in twenty, five seconds got to be. A touchdown i

1565
01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:08,080
Speaker 2: would say these are. Daunting odds ninety. One yards this

1566
01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:10,639
Speaker 2: is the sort of moment that only Happens. In madden

1567
01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:14,360
Speaker 2: we're gonna get some, you know swiggety sweety whoop whoop

1568
01:16:14,360 --> 01:16:16,040
Speaker 2: play all of a sudden where the ball is being

1569
01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:17,720
Speaker 2: thrown back and forth and they're gonna look For A

1570
01:16:17,800 --> 01:16:20,640
Speaker 2: Music City miracle part eighteen or some dumb thing to.

1571
01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:24,160
Speaker 2: Happen here it's this game is all, but done and,

1572
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:27,320
Speaker 2: really incredible by, the way because we keep Talking About

1573
01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:31,160
Speaker 2: mike vrabel in his first year With the patriots leading

1574
01:16:31,280 --> 01:16:34,840
Speaker 2: them to A, super bowl which is. Absolutely insane there

1575
01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:39,200
Speaker 2: is no question about that. Being insane but let's also

1576
01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:41,880
Speaker 2: point Out that, mike McDonald the head coach Of, the

1577
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,800
Speaker 2: seahawks is only in year Two, in seattle and in

1578
01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:47,840
Speaker 2: year Two, in seattle he's on the doorstep of Having.

1579
01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:51,360
Speaker 2: The seahawks, he's said ten seconds away from Having the

1580
01:16:51,439 --> 01:16:53,960
Speaker 2: seahawks In The super bowl, as well which is just.

1581
01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:57,439
Speaker 2: Truly incredible they have rebuilt so much of this that

1582
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:00,080
Speaker 2: was built in the Image Of pete carolyn built and

1583
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:02,840
Speaker 2: the image of The older seahawks to have rebuilt it

1584
01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 2: with a new defense that absolutely Swarms With jackson Smith.

1585
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:09,000
Speaker 2: And jig but we've talked so much About With kenneth

1586
01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:12,719
Speaker 2: walker And With. Sam Donald sam donald is ten seconds

1587
01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:15,560
Speaker 2: From The. Super, bowl brother that is just so weird to.

1588
01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:19,600
Speaker 3: Even, CONCEPTUALIZE well, i mean this is a part of, the,

1589
01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:22,560
Speaker 3: Thing right he's got to prove to people that he

1590
01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:26,760
Speaker 3: belongs in this conversation that he's not just some passenger

1591
01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:30,200
Speaker 3: princess type of quarterback that is going to be on

1592
01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:34,200
Speaker 3: an excellent roster and have. A ceiling he is somebody

1593
01:17:34,280 --> 01:17:37,000
Speaker 3: who has put his team definitively in a position to.

1594
01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:41,000
Speaker 3: Succeed today and he's done it week after week after being,

1595
01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:44,400
Speaker 3: you know a fourteen win quarterback a year ago and

1596
01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:47,920
Speaker 3: still being doubted. THAT way i maintain that he has

1597
01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:50,479
Speaker 3: to now go on to Win The super bowl as

1598
01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:53,000
Speaker 3: a favorite to be able to get rid of any

1599
01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:57,160
Speaker 3: narratives around him to. The opposite but it's a huge accomplishment,

1600
01:17:57,240 --> 01:18:01,600
Speaker 3: for Him, for seattle for that. Front Office the executive

1688
01:22:22,280 --> 01:22:25,160
Speaker 3: Whole thing this guy went from Hero. To titan it's

1689
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:28,840
Speaker 3: so fast where he ended Up in tennessee two. Seasons

1690
01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:32,840

Speaker 4: Humanly possible i've Already.

1696
01:22:46,360 --> 01:22:49,240
Speaker 3: Got titans fans tweeting me graphics of forty three, to

1697
01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:52,640
Speaker 3: eight which is What the Seahawks Beat Peyton mannings broncos

1698
01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:56,200

1699
01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:59,920
Speaker 3: The super Bowl At. MetLife stadium i just have, to think,

1700
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:06,200
Speaker 3: think that in any number of ways that we talked about,

1701
01:23:06,280 --> 01:23:09,360
Speaker 3: this season how many of us would have Picked The New,

1702
01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:12,000
Speaker 3: england patriots a four win team from a, year ago

1703
01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:15,040
Speaker 3: Versus The, seattle seahawks a ten win team with a

1704
01:23:15,160 --> 01:23:17,840
Speaker 3: second year or a first year coach who ended up

1705
01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:20,240

Speaker 3: to end up in this. PARTICULAR, spot fitzi which do

1711

1728
01:24:20,680 --> 01:24:24,000
Speaker 2: and mike McDonald this is really important. To me when

01:24:24,040 --> 01:24:26,519
Speaker 2: he Left, THE ravens i saw a bunch of Interviews

1730
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:28,760
Speaker 2: with ravens players talking about, his defense and they were

1731
01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:30,920
Speaker 2: talking about how it took a couple of years to

1732
01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:34,760
Speaker 2: really understand, the defense and once they, understood it it.

1733
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:37,240
Speaker 2: Was great so from the day he got Hired, IN

1734
01:24:37,320 --> 01:24:40,240
Speaker 2: seattle i, kept saying give it, two years because if

1735
01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:42,479
Speaker 2: It took ravens players a couple, of years it's Gonna

1736
01:24:42,479 --> 01:24:44,600
Speaker 2: take seattle players a couple. OF years i stacked the

1737
01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:48,200
Speaker 2: bricks Logically of seattle being very good. Early On The

1738
01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:51,160
Speaker 2: new england thing's still shocking. TO me i mean the

1739
01:24:51,280 --> 01:24:53,040
Speaker 2: number Of times i've sat here, and, said no this

1740
01:24:53,280 --> 01:24:55,280
Speaker 2: is The Week new england comes Down, to earth and

1741
01:24:55,640 --> 01:24:57,840
Speaker 2: it just hasn't happened over and over and. Over again

1742
01:24:57,880 --> 01:24:59,760
Speaker 2: And For new england to have won a game on

1743
01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:02,719
Speaker 2: road where THEIR quarterback i had like three yards passing

1744
01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:04,519
Speaker 2: in the whole game and just seemed like he was

1745
01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:07,479
Speaker 2: out of, his element like they won that football Game.

1746
01:25:07,640 --> 01:25:10,519
Speaker 2: IN denver i respect it, So MUCH and i Would tell,

1749
01:25:16,040 --> 01:25:18,439

1754
01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:31,880
Speaker 2: patriots are a great. FOOTBALL team i damn well believe

1755
01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:32,920
Speaker 2: That the seahawks are a great.

1756
01:25:32,920 --> 01:25:38,080
Speaker 3: Football team well THAT'S that's i guess one of those

1757
01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:40,840
Speaker 3: things that needs a little bit more, Fleshing out like,

1758
01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:44,639
Speaker 3: by definition what do you believe makes a? Great team

1759
01:25:45,240 --> 01:25:48,080
Speaker 3: like how are You defining seattle as a great Team

1760
01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:50,120
Speaker 3: But new? England not is it simply based off the

1761
01:25:50,200 --> 01:25:53,840
Speaker 3: talent profile that one has over, The other Because definitively

1762
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:54,600
Speaker 3: seattle is.

1763
01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:55,240
Speaker 4: The more talented.

1764
01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:59,479
Speaker 3: Football team is it, their success their level of success

1765
01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:03,040
Speaker 3: in the three phases of football that makes them the,

1766
01:26:03,120 --> 01:26:07,400
Speaker 3: most complete well. Rounded team seattle certainly has the, Advantage

1767
01:26:07,439 --> 01:26:09,479
Speaker 3: there but there is something to be said about this

1768
01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:11,920
Speaker 3: intangible Thing That new england has going. For it and

1769
01:26:12,040 --> 01:26:14,519
Speaker 3: maybe that's not enough to win you A super bowl

1770
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:16,800
Speaker 3: at the end of, the Day Right because I've seen

1771
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:17,560
Speaker 3: rabel do.

1772
01:26:17,720 --> 01:26:18,640
Speaker 4: This before i've seen It.

1773
01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:20,320
Speaker 3: IN tennessee i saw it in twenty, twenty one the

1774
01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:21,920
Speaker 3: last time He won coach Of, the year of which

1775
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:24,719
Speaker 3: he is favored again. To win it's not a postseason

1776
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,519
Speaker 3: award it's a regular, season award but still they continue

1777
01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:31,080
Speaker 3: to keep this thing alive and to be proven correct

1778
01:26:31,160 --> 01:26:35,000
Speaker 3: on the coaching decision and the component of that making

1779
01:26:35,240 --> 01:26:38,960
Speaker 3: such a world of Difference, from GIRODMEO who i. Don't

1780
01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,360
Speaker 3: know maybe he ends up being a good head coach

1781
01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:43,559
Speaker 3: at some point in. HIS career i think the situation

1782
01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:45,880
Speaker 3: that he was up Against In new england was, not

1783
01:26:46,080 --> 01:26:50,800
Speaker 3: favorable and that was that felt a little bit doomed from,

1784
01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:53,080
Speaker 3: the start a situation that he wasn't quite. Prepared for

1785
01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:55,559
Speaker 3: or maybe he's just bad at this and we'll never

1786
01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:58,000
Speaker 3: find out again and he won't get another head. Coaching

1787
01:26:58,120 --> 01:27:02,000
Speaker 3: JOB but i mean from four wheks, to this undefeated

1788
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:05,000

Speaker 3: players in free agency are the drafted they miss on?

1792
01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:20,360

1793
01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:25,760
Speaker 3: chas on who's just Basically a jaggs forgotten pick at

1794
01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:28,760
Speaker 3: this point. In time dudes that you've never heard of

1795
01:27:29,040 --> 01:27:31,960

1799
01:27:40,360 --> 01:27:43,080
Speaker 3: With it but that's as close knit a team as

1800
01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:45,360
Speaker 3: you will find anywhere IN. The nfl how much does

1801
01:27:45,439 --> 01:27:49,519
Speaker 3: that really count for when you are appreciably the worst

1802
01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:52,880
Speaker 3: team from a, TALENT perspective i have.

1803
01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:55,200
Speaker 4: No IDEA all i Know is i'm fascinated to see

1804
01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:55,680
Speaker 4: how it's going to.

1805
01:27:55,720 --> 01:28:00,559
Speaker 2: Play out our mutual friend brother all, Of Us. HARRY

1806
01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:03,720
Speaker 2: douglas I. Love harry harry was one years ago when

1807
01:28:03,760 --> 01:28:06,479
Speaker 2: we worked TOGETHER. At espn harry told me that the

1808
01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:09,760
Speaker 2: first day of installation of your game plan for, most

1809
01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:12,360
Speaker 2: teams the first meeting, you have you go over what

1810
01:28:12,439 --> 01:28:14,360
Speaker 2: they call. Game wreckers that's what they called him where

1811
01:28:14,360 --> 01:28:16,519
Speaker 2: he was at. The Time game wreckers are the, first

1812
01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:18,880
Speaker 2: day and so you're looking at the offensive side of,

1813
01:28:18,920 --> 01:28:20,680
Speaker 2: the ball is looking at all the people on the

1814
01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:24,639
Speaker 2: opposing defense and vice versa that they believe are. Game

1815
01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:28,040
Speaker 2: wreckers this person can absolutely destroy. The game when you

1816
01:28:28,200 --> 01:28:31,080
Speaker 2: ASK what i look for to be a great team

1817
01:28:31,280 --> 01:28:32,800
Speaker 2: OR what i look for to be a very, good

1818
01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:35,160
Speaker 2: team the FIRST thing i think about or who are my?

1819
01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:37,559
Speaker 2: Game wreckers and then the SECOND thing i think about

1820
01:28:37,600 --> 01:28:41,639
Speaker 2: are which coaches are. Game wreckers so, for ME when

1821
01:28:41,680 --> 01:28:43,439
Speaker 2: i Look at seattle and part of The reason i've

1822
01:28:43,479 --> 01:28:45,519
Speaker 2: had this love affair with him, THIS year i mentioned

1823
01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:47,800
Speaker 2: the players, on offense and you know some. Of them

1824
01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:49,599
Speaker 2: you've mentioned some of the players. ON defense i think

1825
01:28:49,640 --> 01:28:52,320
Speaker 2: they have a whole handful of. Game wreckers BUT also

1826
01:28:52,800 --> 01:28:56,519
Speaker 2: i Think that mike McDonald's defensive scheme is a game

1827
01:28:56,560 --> 01:28:59,080
Speaker 2: wrecker for. MANY people I Think clint kobiak as an

1828
01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:02,400
Speaker 2: offensive coordinator has turned into a game wrecker for. Many

1829
01:29:02,479 --> 01:29:06,080
Speaker 2: people so it's just hard to stop everything that they

1830
01:29:06,160 --> 01:29:08,320
Speaker 2: do because they have talent and they're really. Well coached

1831
01:29:08,520 --> 01:29:11,479
Speaker 2: they don't make a ton. Of mistakes they're game. Wreckers

1832
01:29:11,479 --> 01:29:14,160
Speaker 2: EVERYWHERE when i Look At, new england you're right they

1833
01:29:14,800 --> 01:29:17,840
Speaker 2: obviously they keep. Winning games that. Means something but if

1834
01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:20,400
Speaker 2: we start talking about the skilled, position players if we just,

1835
01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:23,400
Speaker 2: went position if, we did would you rather would you

1836
01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:26,200
Speaker 2: rather have the wide Receivers for Seattle Or?

1837
01:29:26,280 --> 01:29:26,360
Speaker 4: New?

1838
01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:28,880
Speaker 2: England seattle would you rather have the running Backs for

1839
01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:31,879
Speaker 2: Seattle Or? New england, for me it Would. Be seattle

1840
01:29:31,920 --> 01:29:33,360
Speaker 2: would you, rather have, you know.

1841
01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:36,920
Speaker 4: The defense of your running backs point, On, that.

1842
01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:40,559
Speaker 2: Well again i'm a super Fan Of kenneth Walker.

1843
01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:41,200
Speaker 4: THE third I Think.

1844
01:29:41,120 --> 01:29:44,840
Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker the third saves negative plays more often. Than

1845
01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:48,080
Speaker 2: not like his numbers weren't, explosive today but the number

1846
01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:50,479
Speaker 2: of times that he saves negative plays and turns him

1847
01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:53,160
Speaker 2: into a three, YARD game i. Love that so, you,

1848
01:29:53,240 --> 01:29:55,799
Speaker 2: know THEN like I think josh McDaniels is an, offensive

1849
01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:59,639
Speaker 2: coordinator is absolutely a, game wrecker but So Is. Clint kubiak,

1850
01:29:59,720 --> 01:30:01,479
Speaker 2: so LIKE if i start to stack all, of that

1851
01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:04,000
Speaker 2: then the, question is, you know WHERE do i find

1852
01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:08,280
Speaker 2: the intangible edge For? The patriots and maybe that's supposed

1853
01:30:08,400 --> 01:30:11,639
Speaker 2: To Be drake may because certainly do We Trust sam

1854
01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:14,120
Speaker 2: donald more than We Trust, drake may who could BE.

1855
01:30:14,160 --> 01:30:16,360
Speaker 2: An mvp but the way they're playing, right now the

1856
01:30:16,439 --> 01:30:18,920
Speaker 2: answer to, that, is, HELL yes I Trust sam donald

1857
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:21,160
Speaker 2: MORE than I Trust drake may based on solely the

1858
01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:23,880
Speaker 2: way they played in the. Last, month YEAH so i

1859
01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:25,320
Speaker 2: struggle to find an advantage For.

1860
01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:29,000
Speaker 3: The, patriots well that's the thing that we're just kind

1861
01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:31,680
Speaker 3: of waiting around to see right Is Is drake may

1862
01:30:31,720 --> 01:30:34,680
Speaker 3: actually a better Quarterback Than. Sam donald and in the,

1863
01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:37,960
Speaker 3: regular season you, could, argue yes but then you would

1864
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:42,160
Speaker 3: be very correct In Contextualizing drake may's regular season by

1865
01:30:42,240 --> 01:30:45,040
Speaker 3: pointing out nobody had an easier Schedule Than drake may

1866
01:30:45,080 --> 01:30:47,000
Speaker 3: And The New. England patriots now that they've gotten, the

1867
01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:49,479
Speaker 3: postseason how much more Mortal Does drake? May look and

1868
01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:52,919
Speaker 3: how much Better Has sam donald been in these? Critical

1869
01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:58,400
Speaker 3: games for no? Other, REASON fitzie i mean they're both high, draft,

1870
01:30:58,439 --> 01:31:00,720
Speaker 3: Picks Right sam donald's a Former First drake may is

1871
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:03,760
Speaker 3: a former. FIRST rounder i would say from a, trait

1872
01:31:03,880 --> 01:31:06,519
Speaker 3: standpoint you Probably, favor may but that doesn't mean that

1873
01:31:06,600 --> 01:31:11,040
Speaker 3: you're skilled more skilled than the. Veteran Quarterback And sam

1874
01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:14,880
Speaker 3: darnold is a veteran quarterback of many, different situations having

1875
01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:17,519
Speaker 3: survived a lot of these situations and come out Clean

1876
01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:19,920
Speaker 3: Like andy dufrayne on the other side type, of, Deal

1877
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:24,759
Speaker 3: right he's he's the better playoff quarterback through these first

1878
01:31:24,840 --> 01:31:27,400
Speaker 3: couple of, playoff games or these playoff games that we've

1879
01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:30,479
Speaker 3: seen now culminating In The. Super bowl will the moment

1880
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:32,800
Speaker 3: be too Big For? Drake may how much? Can be

1881
01:31:33,400 --> 01:31:37,960
Speaker 3: how much can be talked, about realistically like how much

1882
01:31:38,040 --> 01:31:41,040
Speaker 3: actual analysis can you do on something that you won't

1883
01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:42,920
Speaker 3: find Out About drake may until he plays in, this,

1884
01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:45,679
Speaker 3: game right because we have no idea whether he's going.

1885
01:31:45,600 --> 01:31:46,120
Speaker 4: To meet the moment.

1886
01:31:46,200 --> 01:31:48,479
Speaker 3: Or Not sam donald has met the moment at every turn,

1887
01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:51,719
Speaker 3: this year but It Took sam donald how many years

1888
01:31:51,800 --> 01:31:54,960
Speaker 3: to become that kind of, a, Player Right And drake

1889
01:31:55,000 --> 01:31:57,920
Speaker 3: may is still very very young in all.

1890
01:31:58,000 --> 01:31:59,360
Speaker 4: Of this the reason that.

1891
01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:01,960
Speaker 3: They were able to Beat The denver broncos today in

1892
01:32:02,160 --> 01:32:05,559
Speaker 3: huge part beyond the fourth down gaff That the broncos

1893
01:32:05,640 --> 01:32:08,800
Speaker 3: had and the turnovers That stid am ultimately, made late

1894
01:32:09,320 --> 01:32:11,720
Speaker 3: the biggest Reason Why new england felt like they had

1895
01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:14,200
Speaker 3: an advantage in that Game Is drake may's just better

1896
01:32:14,280 --> 01:32:17,519
Speaker 3: athletically and was able to make a huge amount of

1897
01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:20,880
Speaker 3: hay with these scramble drill plays that aren't a Part

1898
01:32:20,920 --> 01:32:24,000
Speaker 3: of josh McDaniel's offense and cannot necessarily be. Accounted FOR

1899
01:32:24,640 --> 01:32:27,600
Speaker 3: and i don't think he necessarily executed, them all, you

1900
01:32:27,720 --> 01:32:30,559
Speaker 3: know with deftness or anything, like that but he. Did,

1901
01:32:30,760 --> 01:32:34,679
Speaker 3: Enough yeah like he was good enough to extend drives

1902
01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:36,760
Speaker 3: to give them, an advantage put them in field goal

1903
01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:38,880
Speaker 3: range a couple. Of times they weren't able to kick

1904
01:32:38,920 --> 01:32:42,519
Speaker 3: in the in, the weather neither. Team WAS but i

1905
01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:46,120
Speaker 3: mean that really was simply the difference Between the broncos

1906
01:32:46,160 --> 01:32:48,040
Speaker 3: And the patriots To Day drake may on. The ground

1907
01:32:48,360 --> 01:32:50,559
Speaker 3: how Much is seattle going to allow? For That because

1908
01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:52,240
Speaker 3: denver gave him a hell of a time and he

1909
01:32:52,320 --> 01:32:53,920
Speaker 3: was still able to make some plays. DOING that i

1910
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:55,120
Speaker 3: just don't know how sustainable.

1911
01:32:55,160 --> 01:32:57,720
Speaker 2: That, is yeah you're a thousand. Percent Right drake may

1912
01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:01,160
Speaker 2: had ten rushes for sixty five yards and a touchdown

1913
01:33:01,320 --> 01:33:04,320
Speaker 2: with his legs in. THIS game i believe he had

1914
01:33:04,439 --> 01:33:07,120
Speaker 2: six or seven of those. Ten rushes all try and.

1915
01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:08,920
Speaker 2: Find it it was either six or seven of those

1916
01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:12,840
Speaker 2: ten rushes resulted in. First downs the difference Maker That

1917
01:33:12,920 --> 01:33:16,040
Speaker 2: drake may does offer is he keeps drives alive with.

1918
01:33:16,160 --> 01:33:18,599
Speaker 2: His legs which comes back to THE thing i constantly

1919
01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:22,320
Speaker 2: say about great quarterbacks IN. THE nfl i believe while

1920
01:33:22,320 --> 01:33:23,760
Speaker 2: we're all sitting here trying to figure out to you

1921
01:33:23,800 --> 01:33:25,760
Speaker 2: wont a great passer or a, GREAT athlete i think

1922
01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:27,760
Speaker 2: what you need is a quarterback that can run, your

1923
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:30,240
Speaker 2: system that can make the plays you need him, to

1924
01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:32,920
Speaker 2: make and five or six times, a game can he

1925
01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:35,679
Speaker 2: save you when the plays. Not Right drake may certainly

1926
01:33:35,840 --> 01:33:38,640
Speaker 2: did that today IN An Afc championship. Game win, he

1927
01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:41,360
Speaker 2: certainly even though you know it was ten to twenty

1928
01:33:41,439 --> 01:33:43,960
Speaker 2: one for eighty six yards throwing, the football it was

1929
01:33:44,200 --> 01:33:47,200
Speaker 2: not a good day for him throwing. The football but

1930
01:33:47,360 --> 01:33:50,280
Speaker 2: through all, of that those ten rushes for sixty, Five,

1931
01:33:50,400 --> 01:33:54,280
Speaker 2: yards man that was a huge reason Why The New england.

1932
01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:57,040
Speaker 2: Patriots won so. You're Right The super bowl matchup has.

Speaker 5: The?

1967
01:35:38,840 --> 01:35:41,439
Speaker 2: Rams here Bucket and i'm Doing that i'm Using the

1968
01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:44,360
Speaker 2: rams SPECIFICALLY because i want to take everybody back, in

1969
01:35:44,479 --> 01:35:47,840
Speaker 2: dime Back to july when we were filling hours and

1970
01:35:47,920 --> 01:35:49,960
Speaker 2: hours and hours of content with no football to, talk

1971
01:35:49,960 --> 01:35:52,560
Speaker 2: about so instead we talked about things. Around football and

1972
01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:55,600
Speaker 2: one of those, conversations, Was Well matt stafford may or

1973
01:35:55,680 --> 01:35:57,400
Speaker 2: may not have really wanted, to play and he's got a,

1974
01:35:57,439 --> 01:35:59,240
Speaker 2: bad back and he's missing all the training camp and

1975
01:35:59,280 --> 01:36:01,120
Speaker 2: he's getting in check and when you, get older your

1976
01:36:01,120 --> 01:36:04,280
Speaker 2: back doesn't, get better and all of, these conversations all

1977
01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:06,800
Speaker 2: some are Long about stafford could be near. The, end

1978
01:36:06,920 --> 01:36:09,519
Speaker 2: well he played so damn well that we don't think.

1979
01:36:09,520 --> 01:36:11,679
Speaker 2: About that but there is still a part of me, that's,

1980
01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:15,040
Speaker 2: Like Man matt stafford IS in, Nfl years he's getting.

1981
01:36:15,120 --> 01:36:17,800
Speaker 2: Up there he's got his fair share of injuries that

1982
01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:20,360
Speaker 2: he's had to. Battle through it was an. Electric year but,

1983
01:36:21,080 --> 01:36:23,080
Speaker 2: my god if You're, the rams you need to start

1984
01:36:23,120 --> 01:36:25,400
Speaker 2: the sales pitch. Right now i'm making Sure that stafford

1985
01:36:25,400 --> 01:36:28,240
Speaker 2: ain't going anywhere because who's going to be? Your quarterback

1986
01:36:28,360 --> 01:36:30,840
Speaker 2: like this is sort of a year by year thing For.

1987
01:36:30,920 --> 01:36:35,000
Speaker 3: The rams so your options behind him right Now are

1988
01:36:35,120 --> 01:36:36,920
Speaker 3: Garoppolo And, stetson.

1989
01:36:36,560 --> 01:36:39,000
Speaker 4: BENNETT which i don't think anybody would look at his.

1990
01:36:39,160 --> 01:36:44,240
Speaker 3: Viable solutions the other conversation that we had About the rams, is,

1991
01:36:44,520 --> 01:36:48,080
Speaker 3: okay Well if stafford's towards the end or, you know

1992
01:36:48,280 --> 01:36:50,400
Speaker 3: we have no idea what. His decision i'm sure he'll

1993
01:36:50,400 --> 01:36:53,439
Speaker 3: be asked a million questions in the postgame press conference

1994
01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:56,000
Speaker 3: that are taking place right now about, his future whether

1995
01:36:56,080 --> 01:36:56,400
Speaker 3: he wants to.

1996
01:36:56,479 --> 01:36:58,200
Speaker 4: Do this i'm sure he'll defer and, be like this is.

1997
01:36:58,280 --> 01:36:59,680
Speaker 4: Too soon it's all.

1998
01:37:00,479 --> 01:37:03,519
Speaker 3: Just happened give me a little while to think about

1999
01:37:03,560 --> 01:37:05,040
Speaker 3: how much MORE were i want to put my. Body

2000
01:37:05,080 --> 01:37:08,040
Speaker 3: through because EVERY time i, see him he just he's

2001
01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:10,520
Speaker 3: been doing this a, long time but like The, gray beard.

2002
01:37:10,560 --> 01:37:12,000
Speaker 4: Like really really hits.

2003
01:37:12,040 --> 01:37:14,519
Speaker 3: Home on, oh no that's an old man out here,

2004
01:37:15,479 --> 01:37:17,600
Speaker 3: doing it even though he's only five years older than

2005
01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:22,880
Speaker 3: me at. THIRTY seven i think that If You're los

2006
01:37:22,960 --> 01:37:26,760
Speaker 3: angeles with two first round picks, this year because you

2007
01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:30,320
Speaker 3: traded famously With the falcons for the right to have

2008
01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:33,160
Speaker 3: their first, round picks so you have number thirteen and

2009
01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:35,400
Speaker 3: number twenty nine, right now.

2010
01:37:37,080 --> 01:37:40,040
Speaker 4: You have, TO consider i, wouldn't.

2011
01:37:39,680 --> 01:37:43,880
Speaker 3: Say trading up to Rob, the raiders Your Beloved Las

2012
01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:46,280
Speaker 3: vegas raiders Of Fern. ANNA mendos i don't think they

2013
01:37:46,320 --> 01:37:48,479
Speaker 3: could get up to one with twenty nine, and thirteen

2014
01:37:50,120 --> 01:37:55,000
Speaker 3: but you have to consider viable. Options elsewhere that may

2015
01:37:55,080 --> 01:37:58,439
Speaker 3: be your next reclamation project because the free agency pool

2016
01:37:58,560 --> 01:38:00,760
Speaker 3: is not going to be well thought of as far

2017
01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:05,120
Speaker 3: as quarterbacks go, this YEAR and i certainly for a

2018
01:38:05,200 --> 01:38:08,120
Speaker 3: first ROUND pick fitzi would be able to Interest The

2019
01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,679
Speaker 3: LOS angeles rams on behalf Of The tennessee titans organization

2020
01:38:11,760 --> 01:38:14,639
Speaker 3: in the services Of One. William LEVIS can i offer

01:38:14,720 --> 01:38:18,320
Speaker 3: you A will levis to rehab And rehabilitate. Sean McVay

2022
01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:19,880

2023
01:38:19,960 --> 01:38:22,840
Speaker 3: really are let's see you do it with somebody who's

2024
01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:25,760
Speaker 3: been cast aside for a number one overall pick Like.

2025
01:38:25,960 --> 01:38:30,400
Speaker 4: CAM ward i don't know what they're going. TO do

01:38:30,600 --> 01:38:32,000
Speaker 4: i know that they have a couple more.

2027
01:38:31,880 --> 01:38:34,439
Speaker 3: OPTIONS than rams fans, Might realize but the idea of

2028
01:38:34,520 --> 01:38:38,400
Speaker 3: moving on from Somebody like stafford for any other, quarterback

2029
01:38:38,479 --> 01:38:41,040
Speaker 3: situation it's just that's been, your superpower and how much

2030
01:38:41,080 --> 01:38:42,479
Speaker 3: longer is your superpower going to?

2031
01:38:42,479 --> 01:38:46,080
Speaker 2: Be, VIABLE well i will point out the Backup In

2032
01:38:46,320 --> 01:38:50,960
Speaker 2: la jimmy g are We buying Jimmy g is. The

2033
01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:53,640
Speaker 2: reclamation thirty four Year old jimmy g. COMES out i

2034
01:38:53,680 --> 01:38:54,880
Speaker 2: Mean It's. Jimmy g's.

2035
01:38:57,880 --> 01:39:02,960
Speaker 4: He's been reclaimed multiple times. Over, you ironically the writers

2036
01:39:03,040 --> 01:39:04,160
Speaker 4: is where the reclamation went.

2037
01:39:04,240 --> 01:39:07,479
Speaker 2: To, die yeah oh. My, god yeah like the number

2038
01:39:07,479 --> 01:39:10,920
Speaker 2: of Times said Jimmy. G is that's a. Wild, SCENARIO

2039
01:39:11,920 --> 01:39:14,040
Speaker 2: look i hope for the sake Of, the Rams The

2040
01:39:14,479 --> 01:39:16,640
Speaker 2: matthew stafford decides to. Keep playing but this is the

2041
01:39:16,760 --> 01:39:18,439
Speaker 2: risk that they take when you don't have a long

2042
01:39:18,520 --> 01:39:20,840
Speaker 2: term answer at the. Quarterback position and, you know it

2043
01:39:20,920 --> 01:39:22,680
Speaker 2: was only a couple of years ago that people were

2044
01:39:22,760 --> 01:39:25,040
Speaker 2: even questioning whether Or not sean McVay wanted to. DO

2045
01:39:25,120 --> 01:39:28,479
Speaker 2: this i weirdly think this sounds STRANGE when i, say

2046
01:39:28,520 --> 01:39:31,080
Speaker 2: it especially coming off The lost. RAMS fans i think

2047
01:39:31,120 --> 01:39:33,280
Speaker 2: the loss actually helps you in some of these categories

2048
01:39:33,360 --> 01:39:35,719
Speaker 2: more than the. Win would i'd be Worried about Sam

2049
01:39:36,280 --> 01:39:39,519
Speaker 2: matt stafford turns around Wins The SUPER. Bowl mvp on

2050
01:39:39,600 --> 01:39:42,160
Speaker 2: the year that he WINS, the mvp he's Got A super,

2051
01:39:42,200 --> 01:39:45,000
Speaker 2: bowl ring, everybody says let's go out. On top i'd

2052
01:39:45,040 --> 01:39:47,599
Speaker 2: be more worried. About, that so, you know maybe there's

2053
01:39:47,640 --> 01:39:50,600
Speaker 2: some element of you get a little peace out of

2054
01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:53,080
Speaker 2: the fact that. YOU lost i know that that's not

2055
01:39:53,200 --> 01:39:55,960
Speaker 2: the message anybody wants, right now but it's just such

2056
01:39:56,000 --> 01:39:59,920
Speaker 2: an interesting part Of the rams is that they play

2057
01:40:00,240 --> 01:40:03,160
Speaker 2: so well this year that we forgot about an entire

2058
01:40:03,320 --> 01:40:07,200
Speaker 2: offseason that felt like we were asking questions about what

2059
01:40:07,360 --> 01:40:09,320
Speaker 2: they were going to do short term long term at

2060
01:40:09,360 --> 01:40:11,880
Speaker 2: the most important position in all. The sports if You're,

2061
01:40:11,920 --> 01:40:14,920
Speaker 2: the broncos your answer is. Really Simple the broncos lost

2062
01:40:14,920 --> 01:40:18,360
Speaker 2: today To. The patriots they could turn around, and, say

2063
01:40:18,400 --> 01:40:20,799
Speaker 2: well if we'd have Had, bon Knicks bon knicks wouldn't

2064
01:40:20,840 --> 01:40:23,600
Speaker 2: throw a fourth. Quarter interception that's why they won so

2065
01:40:23,640 --> 01:40:26,280
Speaker 2: many games in the. Fourth quarter. Bonnickx's clutch all you

2066
01:40:26,320 --> 01:40:28,479
Speaker 2: got to do, is, say hey we barely LOST An

2067
01:40:28,520 --> 01:40:32,400
Speaker 2: afc championship game without our, starting quarterback in our starting

2068
01:40:32,479 --> 01:40:35,240
Speaker 2: quarterbacks still on a. Rookie deal. We're, Good, maybe like

2069
01:40:35,320 --> 01:40:37,759
Speaker 2: if You're a, broncos fan you got to feel pretty

2070
01:40:37,800 --> 01:40:39,920
Speaker 2: good about where. You're headed if You're a, RAMS fan

2071
01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:41,880
Speaker 2: i just think, you know you might be you might

2072
01:40:41,920 --> 01:40:43,719
Speaker 2: be just getting a little, bit nurse just a tiny.

2073
01:40:43,760 --> 01:40:46,519
Speaker 3: Bit nurse, oh yeah you don't. Feel good you don't

2074
01:40:46,520 --> 01:40:49,400
Speaker 3: feel good about any, of, This, right like how could you? Possibly,

2075
01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:54,479
Speaker 3: YOU well, I mean i guess the, justification, is well

2076
01:40:54,520 --> 01:40:56,680
Speaker 3: you Won The super bowl, with him right like you

2077
01:40:56,800 --> 01:41:00,160
Speaker 3: got you got the one out of him and he

2078
01:41:00,479 --> 01:41:03,120
Speaker 3: it was a fair exchange for what you gave up

2079
01:41:03,200 --> 01:41:05,360
Speaker 3: to get him versus what he gave you as. A

2080
01:41:05,439 --> 01:41:09,840
Speaker 3: franchise but the, question is is it disappointing if you

2081
01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:12,040
Speaker 3: only Win One super bowl with the best Version Of

2082
01:41:12,080 --> 01:41:14,160
Speaker 3: matt stafford that any of us have. Ever seen who's

2083
01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:15,960
Speaker 3: going to Be a Hall of famer at some point

2084
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:18,920
Speaker 3: in his career down, the line whether he's first ballot.

2085
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:20,719
Speaker 4: Or not i'm sure people. Can, debate again we should

2086
01:41:20,720 --> 01:41:22,400
Speaker 4: probably wait till his career is actually over to have.

2087
01:41:22,479 --> 01:41:25,840
Speaker 3: Such conversations but he's an interesting case study in, all

2088
01:41:25,880 --> 01:41:29,120
Speaker 3: right how much are we going to take into account

2089
01:41:29,160 --> 01:41:32,040
Speaker 3: the times that he played versus the inflation of his

2090
01:41:32,160 --> 01:41:34,559
Speaker 3: numbers Relative to Hall of fame guys who are already

2091
01:41:34,560 --> 01:41:38,240
Speaker 3: in where he's clearly statistically superior to just about everyone

2092
01:41:38,320 --> 01:41:40,559
Speaker 3: in the sport at this point. In, time no if

2093
01:41:40,560 --> 01:41:43,760
Speaker 3: You're a, rams fan you're getting back into the mode

2094
01:41:43,760 --> 01:41:45,840
Speaker 3: of leave, them, picks like get rid of. These picks

2095
01:41:45,920 --> 01:41:49,840
Speaker 3: give me players that can continue to stave off any

2096
01:41:49,960 --> 01:41:52,559
Speaker 3: kind of real rebuilding that we'd have, to DO because

2097
01:41:52,600 --> 01:41:55,120
Speaker 3: i know that my front office and my coaching staff

2098
01:41:55,200 --> 01:41:57,840
Speaker 3: together are capable of. Doing this the other component is

2099
01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:04,160
Speaker 3: What does sean McVay want to do in a world

2100
01:42:04,200 --> 01:42:07,440
Speaker 3: where he could stand TO get, i mean he's already threatened. Television,

2101
01:42:07,520 --> 01:42:11,080
Speaker 3: Once right he's talked about the mental place that he's

2102
01:42:11,400 --> 01:42:13,800
Speaker 3: that he was in after The First super bowl and

2103
01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:15,760
Speaker 3: how difficult that was for HIM and i, you know

2104
01:42:16,360 --> 01:42:17,400
Speaker 3: people would probably.

2105
01:42:17,120 --> 01:42:18,400
Speaker 4: Scoff at that and, be, like well that's what the.

2106
01:42:18,439 --> 01:42:20,559
Speaker 4: Money's for go do. Your job you're a, football coach.

2107
01:42:20,439 --> 01:42:24,439
Speaker 3: Blah blah Blah at these jobs are incredibly, taxing, mentally,

2108
01:42:24,560 --> 01:42:29,000
Speaker 3: physically emotionally all. The things what does the Future without

2109
01:42:29,040 --> 01:42:31,360
Speaker 3: stafford mean for a guy, Like McVeigh do you really

2110
01:42:31,400 --> 01:42:34,400
Speaker 3: want to turn chicken salad or turn chicken bleep into

2111
01:42:34,439 --> 01:42:36,760
Speaker 3: chicken salad for the rest of your career when you've

2112
01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:39,519
Speaker 3: just had, you know you've had the best version of

2113
01:42:39,560 --> 01:42:43,240
Speaker 3: a quarterback that anybody would probably have in the modern era.

2114
01:42:43,320 --> 01:42:46,280
Speaker 3: Of football you won the ring, with him and now

2115
01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:48,920
Speaker 3: you've got to figure Out between Stets, And Bennett jimmy

2116
01:42:48,920 --> 01:42:50,760
Speaker 3: garoppolo and a draft pick to be Named.

2117
01:42:50,840 --> 01:42:53,439
Speaker 4: Later bluh he also.

2118
01:42:53,320 --> 01:42:55,360
Speaker 2: Made it really clear when there were rumors that he

2119
01:42:55,479 --> 01:42:58,240
Speaker 2: was thinking to leave Him before aaronnell. Did that, you

2120
01:42:58,320 --> 01:43:01,759
Speaker 2: know having kids in a family, change. Life right should

2121
01:43:01,840 --> 01:43:04,400
Speaker 2: just point out that they announced right before the playoffs

2122
01:43:04,479 --> 01:43:06,519
Speaker 2: that he and his wife just had their. Second baby

2123
01:43:06,640 --> 01:43:08,519
Speaker 2: they have two kids under two. Years old these are

2124
01:43:08,520 --> 01:43:11,160
Speaker 2: all the variables that sort of make you wonder what

2125
01:43:11,320 --> 01:43:13,000
Speaker 2: the future is going to. Look like we have plenty

2126
01:43:13,040 --> 01:43:15,280
Speaker 2: of time to figure. That out here's, one, question though

2127
01:43:15,600 --> 01:43:19,439
Speaker 2: how does everybody feel about this quarterback matchup when we

2128
01:43:19,520 --> 01:43:22,400
Speaker 2: think about some of the quarterbacks that aren't playing In The.

2129
01:43:22,479 --> 01:43:24,880
Speaker 2: Super bowl we'll answer, that next, But first steve get

2130
01:43:24,920 --> 01:43:27,160
Speaker 2: us caught up on what's going on on. The scoreboard that.

2131
01:43:27,280 --> 01:43:30,080
Speaker 7: Was A Great nfc championship Game at, seattle tonight And

2132
01:43:30,200 --> 01:43:32,479
Speaker 7: the seahawks are going To The super bowl In The.

01:43:32,560 --> 01:43:35,639
Speaker 7: Bay area in a couple Weeks Against, New england seahawks

Speaker 7: ELIMINATED The la rams thirty one Twenty Seven Southern. California

2135

Speaker 7: yards passing. Three touchdowns there were a combined fifty first

2137
01:43:46,840 --> 01:43:49,400
Speaker 7: downs in this game the complete opposite of what we

2138
01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:51,920
Speaker 7: saw in the Snow at denver earlier in. The Day

2139
01:43:52,400 --> 01:43:55,479
Speaker 7: since Seattle hired mike McDonald as head coach a couple of,

2140
01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:59,240
Speaker 7: years Ago his seahawks are undefeated when they're facing an

2141
01:43:59,280 --> 01:44:01,880

2210
01:47:37,040 --> 01:47:40,400
Speaker 3: Very unhappy malcontent is probably, too strong like he's not actively,

2211
01:47:40,479 --> 01:47:44,360
Speaker 3: undermining anybody, it seems but he's just he seems to.

2212
01:47:44,520 --> 01:47:46,519
Speaker 3: Your point and he, said this if he's not, having

2213
01:47:46,600 --> 01:47:49,920
Speaker 3: fun why is he? Doing this which is the kind

2214
01:47:49,960 --> 01:47:51,760
Speaker 3: of line that makes, you, think oh does this guy

2215
01:47:51,840 --> 01:47:53,760
Speaker 3: want To Like? Andrew luck his way out of it

2216
01:47:54,439 --> 01:47:56,280
Speaker 3: at a certain point because his body hurts and he

2217
01:47:56,360 --> 01:47:58,519
Speaker 3: plays for a cheap ass organization that's the only one

2218
01:47:58,560 --> 01:48:00,640
Speaker 3: that didn't fire, their coach and that even though he,

2219
01:48:00,680 --> 01:48:02,559
Speaker 3: should have like they're the ones brothers should have.

2220
01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:04,880
Speaker 4: Fired the coach more, than anybody and yet he's just

2221
01:48:04,960 --> 01:48:09,640
Speaker 4: kind of. Sitting there it's it's the idea of and

2222
01:48:09,760 --> 01:48:10,759
Speaker 4: you've talked about.

2223
01:48:10,560 --> 01:48:12,200
Speaker 3: This before and it's a POINT that i, really liked

2224
01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:15,800
Speaker 3: the idea of what does parody actually mean IN? The

2225
01:48:15,960 --> 01:48:21,080
Speaker 3: nfl and is it really something that you can look at, And,

2226
01:48:21,200 --> 01:48:25,040
Speaker 3: say no most of these teams are basically the same

2227
01:48:25,160 --> 01:48:28,720
Speaker 3: as another team with a few a few differences here.

2228
01:48:28,720 --> 01:48:31,800
Speaker 3: And there maybe an injury impacts a team more one

2229
01:48:31,880 --> 01:48:35,600
Speaker 3: season than it, does another something. Like that or is

2230
01:48:35,680 --> 01:48:39,679
Speaker 3: it just the idea THAT the nfl sells parody better

2231
01:48:39,800 --> 01:48:43,920
Speaker 3: than anybody else to keep fan bases believing that they

2232
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:45,720
Speaker 3: can be in this thing for as long as they,

2233
01:48:45,760 --> 01:48:47,280
Speaker 3: want to, because oh why wouldn't you Be?

2234
01:48:47,479 --> 01:48:49,680
Speaker 4: The chiefs You Got, patrick mahomes look, At this you've

2235
01:48:49,680 --> 01:48:51,080
Speaker 4: already Won Three? Super bowls what's?

2236
01:48:51,160 --> 01:48:54,680
Speaker 3: The sweat and then you're, you know sitting there aghast

2237
01:48:54,840 --> 01:48:57,360
Speaker 3: because your quarterback who was going to get, eliminated anyway

2238
01:48:57,880 --> 01:49:00,080
Speaker 3: is down on the on, the field screaming because he

2239
01:49:00,160 --> 01:49:02,200
Speaker 3: TORE his acl and you don't know what that's gonna

2240
01:49:02,200 --> 01:49:04,559
Speaker 3: look like for the rest of. His career or if

2241
01:49:04,560 --> 01:49:07,800
Speaker 3: You're justin, herbert Right a, chargers fan imagine Being a.

2242
01:49:07,920 --> 01:49:11,320
Speaker 3: Chargers fan if they even, DO exist i question their.

2243
01:49:11,360 --> 01:49:14,600
Speaker 3: Existence entirely maybe because we are being produced Out of,

2244
01:49:14,760 --> 01:49:17,360
Speaker 3: la today somebody within the sound of my voice is

2245
01:49:17,439 --> 01:49:19,600
Speaker 3: in Fact a. Chargers FAN until i see you with my,

2246
01:49:19,720 --> 01:49:22,439
Speaker 3: OWN eyes i won't believe that. You're real but you

2247
01:49:22,640 --> 01:49:26,679
Speaker 3: get one of these theoretical firebreathing quarterback or firebreathing dragons,

2248
01:49:26,680 --> 01:49:28,920
Speaker 3: at quarterback but he can't do anything because he's a

2249
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:33,599
Speaker 3: choking dog in, the playoffs like. HE'S. C, J stroud

2250
01:49:33,760 --> 01:49:36,280
Speaker 3: like you got one of, these, Guys right he's the

2251
01:49:36,360 --> 01:49:38,360
Speaker 3: supposed to he's supposed to be the thing that leads

2252
01:49:38,400 --> 01:49:40,839
Speaker 3: you to the. Promised land look. At him he's breaking

2253
01:49:40,960 --> 01:49:44,400
Speaker 3: Records that Herbert and burrow set their rookie years as,

2254
01:49:44,479 --> 01:49:46,280
Speaker 3: a rookie and then he comes back the next two

2255
01:49:46,320 --> 01:49:50,479
Speaker 3: and he's. A disaster he's just, a disaster like the,

2256
01:49:50,600 --> 01:49:53,519
Speaker 3: whole thing the whole reason for, your belief the whole

2257
01:49:53,600 --> 01:49:56,160
Speaker 3: reason that you think that, you belong that you have

2258
01:49:56,240 --> 01:49:58,360
Speaker 3: a seat at the table in one of these conferences

2259
01:49:58,760 --> 01:50:02,120
Speaker 3: because you got the. Quarterback right how fleeting that, feels

2260
01:50:02,160 --> 01:50:04,760
Speaker 3: anymore and it never more so viscerally than in THE,

2261
01:50:04,840 --> 01:50:08,439
Speaker 3: modern nfl where we're just seeing these things cycle out

2262
01:50:08,720 --> 01:50:12,320
Speaker 3: at a rates team cycle out at a RATE that i,

2263
01:50:12,880 --> 01:50:17,799
Speaker 3: find UNBELIEVABLE because i have always thought that the best

2264
01:50:18,360 --> 01:50:21,960
Speaker 3: quarterback situation will always be your, greatest advantage until you

2265
01:50:22,120 --> 01:50:24,720
Speaker 3: see how much of a team sport this, actually is

2266
01:50:24,800 --> 01:50:27,679
Speaker 3: and how quickly a quarterback can crumble without the proper

2267
01:50:27,720 --> 01:50:30,400
Speaker 3: support system, in place and how flawed some of the roster.

2268
01:50:30,560 --> 01:50:33,360
Speaker 3: Building is where you get one of these quarterbacks and

2269
01:50:33,400 --> 01:50:36,040
Speaker 3: you start to skirt elsewhere because, you're, like ah my guy's,

2270
01:50:36,080 --> 01:50:38,040
Speaker 3: good enough we can get, it done And then.

2271
01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:40,720
Speaker 4: Lamar gets a bad back and you fall. APART completely.

2272
01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:45,439
Speaker 2: I keep thinking about what the last several weeks have

2273
01:50:45,560 --> 01:50:49,560
Speaker 2: felt Like for. Bills fans, You Have. Josh allen you

01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:56,719
Speaker 2: felt good. About it, you lose your coach, gets fired

2276
01:50:56,880 --> 01:51:00,000
Speaker 2: your owner has just the weirdest moment at the podium

2277
01:51:00,200 --> 01:51:02,559
Speaker 2: you could. Ask for you don't have a, Head coach

2278
01:51:02,640 --> 01:51:04,519
Speaker 2: you have no idea where. It's going you realize that

2279
01:51:04,920 --> 01:51:08,320
Speaker 2: you're in need of a ton of roster improvement while

2280
01:51:08,360 --> 01:51:09,960
Speaker 2: you're sitting here trying to figure out who the hell

2281

2316
01:52:56,800 --> 01:53:00,400
Speaker 3: said that because it happens to quarterbacks all. The TIME

2317
01:53:00,479 --> 01:53:03,720
Speaker 3: apparently i JUST. Cited cj strouded as. An example, but

2318
01:53:03,880 --> 01:53:07,519
Speaker 3: uh you have to feel so bad if you are

2319
01:53:07,560 --> 01:53:10,519
Speaker 3: a fan of one of those other three franchises. Looking

2320
01:53:10,560 --> 01:53:12,920
Speaker 3: Around ian roddy is out there somewhere with his head

2321
01:53:12,960 --> 01:53:16,160
Speaker 3: in his hands As a jets fan or a producer

2322
01:53:16,280 --> 01:53:19,880
Speaker 3: On our, saturday show that we are regularly scheduled for

2323
01:53:20,520 --> 01:53:24,720
Speaker 3: just an, unthinkable hell especially when you see a play

2324
01:53:24,840 --> 01:53:28,000
Speaker 3: like today ON that, qb sneak that tush PUSH that

2325
01:53:28,560 --> 01:53:30,599
Speaker 3: i don't know if you felt Like the patriots. Got

2326
01:53:30,640 --> 01:53:33,400
Speaker 3: it it was not very clear That the patriots were

2327
01:53:33,439 --> 01:53:35,880
Speaker 3: able to successfully pull off, that conversion and yet they got,

2328
01:53:35,960 --> 01:53:38,640
Speaker 3: it anyway and, that's fine then maybe that's where you

2329
01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:41,800
Speaker 3: start your. Conspiracy theories but just Like the bills coming

2330
01:53:41,920 --> 01:53:44,240
Speaker 3: up short on a fourth on a tush Push With

2331
01:53:44,360 --> 01:53:47,040
Speaker 3: josh allen Against the chiefs a couple of years ago

2332
01:53:47,120 --> 01:53:50,840
Speaker 3: in the postseason and ultimately being ruled, against them Watching

2333
01:53:50,880 --> 01:53:52,200
Speaker 3: the patriots get not just.

2334
01:53:52,280 --> 01:53:56,200
Speaker 4: The benefit of the schedule and the injuries and.

2335
01:53:57,120 --> 01:53:59,640
Speaker 3: You know the coaching and all these, different things but

2336
01:53:59,720 --> 01:54:03,400
Speaker 3: on top, of that officiating things that just maybe felling

2337
01:54:03,640 --> 01:54:07,360
Speaker 3: right for them in this. Particular situation maybe it's not

2338
01:54:07,560 --> 01:54:10,240
Speaker 3: something to, look into but it's just something that probably

2339
01:54:10,320 --> 01:54:11,840
Speaker 3: irks you a little more if you're a fan of

2340
01:54:11,960 --> 01:54:13,120

Speaker 2: better to be lucky. Than good it. Truly is and

2343
01:54:18,880 --> 01:54:21,240
Speaker 2: there's a difference between being a fan of a playoff

2344
01:54:21,280 --> 01:54:23,400
Speaker 2: team and being a fan of a. Good team they

2345
01:54:23,439 --> 01:54:25,919
Speaker 2: aren't always. The same and when you want to find success,

2346
01:54:26,720 --> 01:54:28,680
Speaker 2: long term year in and, year out you need to

2347
01:54:28,720 --> 01:54:30,680
Speaker 2: be able to look through the playoff classes and then

2348
01:54:30,720 --> 01:54:33,440
Speaker 2: actually figured out is it a good team or is a?

2349
01:54:33,480 --> 01:54:35,920
Speaker 2: BAD team i KNOW if i had, the CHOICE would

2397
01:56:49,520 --> 01:56:51,880

2402
01:57:01,280 --> 01:57:02,920
