1 00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: And now move the sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. 2 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 2: What's up everybody? Welcome to move the sticks. 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:09,719 Speaker 1: DJ. 4 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,119 Speaker 2: Bucky Rhett back with you here as we look back 5 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 2: on a Monday night game that was as all Charger 6 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 2: games are down to the wire. Bucky Rhett joining in here. Buck. 7 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 3: How you doing, man, Man, I'm great state of Lily 8 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 3: watching that game. It was a great game, came down 9 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 3: to the wire. I feel for you based on your 10 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 3: Charges association. But a lot of Cowboys fans like every 11 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,840 Speaker 3: game is like games, they must win game and you're 12 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 3: able to get it. 13 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, every Chargers game is a little spicy. 14 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's always coming out of the wire, 15 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: isn't it, Ditch? 16 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 4: You know what I mean? 17 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: No question? What's time for Monday night recap? Well, I 18 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 2: figure we just jump right into this game and I'll 19 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 2: lead us off here. Guys. Uh you know, I jokingly said, 20 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 2: it's it's the same every week. Every Charger game comes 21 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: down to the very end, win or lose. There's always 22 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 2: nail Byers, doesn't matter the opponent. They've got three losses 23 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 2: this year. They've had the ball in their possession late 24 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 2: in regulation, or in overtime with a chance to go 25 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 2: down and tie or win the game, and they have 26 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 2: been able to generate one first down on those three possessions. 27 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: They just haven't been able to do it when it matters, 28 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 2: and protection has been an issue. It's broken down. You 29 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: see it time and time again where teams are able 30 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 2: to get their best on the you know, the weaker 31 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 2: side of the line with the Chargers, and they got 32 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 2: after Trey Pipkins, Michael Parsons was able to get home 33 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 2: and then they end up having an interception late in 34 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: that ballgame. But really, I mean, look the defense. You 35 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: can look at it and say, oh ceedee, Lamb got loose. 36 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 2: Had some issues there, you know, broken plays, dumb penalties. 37 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 2: At the end of the day, he gave up twenty 38 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 2: points to a cowboy team that has a lot of weapons. 39 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: Offense has to do better than what they did last night, 40 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 2: and they had a great first drive. It looked like 41 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 2: they were going to be in a rhythm and never 42 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: able to get back in that rhythm again. And Buck's 43 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: it's a little demoralizing when you dial up a couple 44 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 2: shot plays which they did to Keenan Allen and he 45 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 2: gets wide open and Herbert just missed him. It wasn't 46 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: a sharp effort from the quarterback last night. 47 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, the quarterback result to Mark you talk about one 48 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 3: of the best quarterbacks in the league just didn't have 49 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,839 Speaker 3: his a game. Kellenmore did a great job of diagramming 50 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 3: those shot plays. Had plenty of big play opportunities there 51 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 3: for Justin Herbert take advantage if you just couldn't cash 52 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 3: in the lottery ticket. And in a game that is 53 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 3: going to be competitive like that, in most NFL games 54 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 3: are going to fall within their one score premise, you 55 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 3: have to be able to make those plays. And basketball 56 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 3: they talked about a make or miss league is very 57 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 3: similar in the NFL. You either make the big plays 58 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 3: or you don't, and if you don't, it really comes 59 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 3: back to bite you. But I will say this the 60 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 3: part that Hurst to charges their inability to run the 61 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 3: ball consistently. Austin Eckler couldn't get it going despite look, 62 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 3: they gave him plenty of attempts. They just couldn't run 63 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 3: the football. And when you're in a one dimensional game 64 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 3: plan against the Cowboys defense, this does a really good 65 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: job of rushing the passer and creating turnovers. It just 66 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 3: makes for a recipe for disaster for the Chargers offense. 67 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, I mean they were certainly pressuring justin 68 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: Herbert in fact, you know, pressure the most that he 69 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: had he had seen all season long in this game 70 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: about fifty percent of the dropbacks facing that pressure and 71 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: was not good in those situations. Completetion percentage was just 72 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,119 Speaker 1: over forty. Passer rating was thirty three in those situations. 73 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: I feel like DJ generally he is better, He's better 74 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: than that against pressure. Is that just a way in 75 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: your mind from what you were watching, that, the way 76 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: in which you know Dallas is able to generate that, 77 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: or just just an off night kind of overall? 78 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think more than anything else is an off night. 79 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 2: But you know, you get pressure, and pressure has its 80 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 2: toll even when the pressure isn't there. In other words, 81 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 2: you see him hanging there, he gets hit that impacts 82 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 2: and throws, and then other times he's got a clean 83 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: pocket and he kind of drifts and kind of and 84 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: kind of falls into some pressure, which happened on a 85 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: few occasions. The other thing is Buck mentioned the fact 86 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: they couldn't run the football well. When you go back 87 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: and watch tape, as they did this morning. There's there 88 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 2: are a lot of RPOs they got caught with two penalties, 89 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: could have been three penalties. Where they've got lineman downfield 90 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 2: where he's pulling the ball and zipping it out on 91 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: the bubble, where you've got you know, you've got your option, 92 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 2: you can hand the ball off, Herbert could take it 93 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 2: and go where you can flip it out. There's a 94 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 2: couple times where they actually did get favorable looks in 95 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 2: the run game, and you've got trips and you've got 96 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: four over three outside and he's still trying to zip 97 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 2: the ball out there. Some of them got batted down, 98 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 2: some of them he had to tuck and go. He've 99 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: got to give that ball off. So there's some there's 100 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: some things they can correct there. I think that will 101 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 2: help their run game a little bit. But man, it's 102 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 2: hard to be one dimensional and win games when you 103 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 2: have no run game whatsoever on the other side of it. 104 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 2: And rhet I'll go back to you on this one. 105 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 2: This was by far the most impressed I've been with 106 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott this year. We had looked at the GPS numbers, 107 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 2: how those had come way down. Well, all of a sudden, 108 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 2: out of nowhere. His GPS number spike popped. He get 109 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 2: over eighteen miles per hour on one of those runs, 110 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 2: So he looked he looked fresh, He used his legs. 111 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 2: He was sacked five times, he could have been sacked 112 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 2: ten times. He got out of a bunch of pressure 113 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 2: extended plays and made some things happen. But that was 114 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 2: a winning version of Dak Prescott, I thought, the best 115 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 2: we've seen him this year. 116 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: I think that just also shows you, you know, a 117 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: positive mentality for this team, you know they were facing. 118 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: I mean, the scrutiny obviously of the Star is heavy 119 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: each and every week, but especially when you go into 120 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: a game that's built as a heavyweight matchup and you 121 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: turn out to be the lightweight. You know, the week 122 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: before it was the negativity was loud, and it was 123 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,039 Speaker 1: loud in Dak's direction, and I think that shows you 124 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 1: kind of the mental toughness this guy has in the 125 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: physical toughness as well. I mean that that pocket awareness 126 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: and and you know, ability to get to get away 127 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: from trouble right there and finding Tony Pollard, you know, 128 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: for that big play in the past game was obviously huge, 129 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: but yeah, Dak runs for a score that's a big deal. 130 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: And ceedee Lamb got targeted early and often, and that 131 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: was a big factor in this one too. Right he 132 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: goes for what what over one hundred. I do have 133 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: a question though, and Buck, I'd love to get your 134 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: thought on this, because we kind of talked about it 135 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: a lot going into the season. All Right, hey, this 136 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: is Tony Pollard's time to shine, right, you know, the 137 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: offensive line for the most part is the same as 138 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: it was a year ago. And we haven't seen as 139 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: much explosiveness from Tony Pollard in the run game. 140 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 2: Now. 141 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 4: You handed it to him fifteen times in this game. 142 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: And look, obviously the Chargers defense played pretty well here, 143 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: so give them some credit, but generated just thirty yards 144 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: and the majority of his damage is coming through the 145 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: pass game. Where are we at in the Cowboys usage 146 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: of Tony Pollard as kind of RB one. 147 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it hasn't gone according to plan. And it's 148 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 3: one of the fears that you have when you move 149 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 3: someone who's been a number two up to the number 150 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 3: one role. One of the reasons why when you talk 151 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 3: to Cowboys coaches previously, they talked about Zekiel Elliott kind 152 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 3: of being the everyday Sedan the guy that you drive 153 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 3: Monday through Friday, but on the weekends, Tony Pollard is 154 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 3: the sports card that you bring out. Now you're asking 155 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 3: Tony Polott as the sports car to be the every 156 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 3: day car. He's not necessarily built to do that, and 157 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 3: we're seeing the more that he gets it, the less 158 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 3: of the impacts the game. At some point, I think 159 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 3: the Cowboys gonna have to find a way to kind 160 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 3: of reshuffle the dick when it comes to their running 161 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 3: back situation. So they could allow Tony Poula to do 162 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 3: what he does best, complimentary player, big play player out 163 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 3: of the backfield. Someone else is going to have to 164 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 3: do to heavy lifting on those early downs. 165 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 2: He's not built to play that role. Yeah. Look, he's 166 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 2: just not a big guy. So finding a bigger back 167 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 2: to compliment him, I think will be part of what 168 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 2: they do in the offseason. Last thought to kind of 169 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 2: wrap this game up, guys, it was a close game, 170 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 2: came down to the very end. I think you could 171 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 2: summarize it this way. The stars for the team with 172 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 2: a star in their helmet just played a little better 173 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: than the stars for the charters when you look at it. 174 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 2: Back out and Herbert Micah Parsons outplayed Bosa in this game. 175 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 2: Bosa is a little nicked up. Derwin James had a 176 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 2: couple of costly penalties, didn't really make anything happen. It 177 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: was a case where the Cowboys best players, with seeding 178 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,679 Speaker 2: lamb probably leading the way offense, they outplayed the Chargers 179 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: and they get away with a win, A big win 180 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 2: for the Dallas Cowboys. Hey, real quick, deal, all right, 181 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 2: let's go ahead, go ahead rtt yeah, real quick. You know. 182 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: Tom Pellisara was talking today about Leonard Fournette having a 183 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: bunch of suitors around the league right now. He's in 184 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: great shape and working out. You think the Cowboys might 185 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: be one to consider the services of Lombardi. Lenny. 186 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 4: I kind of liked that. 187 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: I kind of like that, right, that's actually, that's actually 188 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 2: that was worthy of interruption. Interruption, I will give you that. 189 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 2: That was it. That was good. That was good. That 190 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 2: was good. So no, I like that, give him a 191 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 2: little bit bigger back and compliment him there. I like 192 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 2: that thought, all right, we're gonna change gears. Now, we're 193 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 2: going to get to quarterbacks that have regress from last 194 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 2: year this year. I wanted to pull these numbers just 195 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 2: to see what it looked like just in the standpoint 196 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 2: of passer rating. So you look at last year where 197 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: they were in the biggest declines. You're looking at Ryan Tannehill, 198 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow, Daniel Jones, Jimmy Garoppolo, Jalen Hurts, and Mac Jones. 199 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: So an interesting collection of names there. I put the 200 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 2: emphasis on Jalen Hurts buck. I know he's towards the 201 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 2: bottom of this less but sixteen point eight percent down 202 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 2: from last year? What would you attribute that to? From 203 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 2: what you've seen so far? 204 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 3: I think people forget that the Philadephi Eagas are breaking 205 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 3: in a new offensive coordinator, Brian Johnson, and you lose 206 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 3: Say stich And who by all accounts the job that 207 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 3: he's doing in Indianapols a great play. 208 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 2: Call it well. 209 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 3: Brian Johnson is trying to figure out he's trying to 210 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 3: figure out how design plays for the quarterback. They're trying 211 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 3: to maybe validate or justify the decision and paying the 212 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 3: quarterback by throwing more, and they just haven't been on 213 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 3: the mark. Here's the thing, though, when you look at 214 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 3: the tape, the Philadelphia Eagles typically run however they want, 215 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 3: whenever they want, wherever they want, against anybody. And when 216 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 3: they run the football, this team moves the ball up 217 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 3: and down the field. At some point, you're going to 218 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 3: have to quit trying to fill up the stat sheet 219 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 3: and do what works. Whenever the Philadelphia Eagles decide, hey, 220 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 3: we won't get back to playing bully ball. 221 00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: Had a lot of scrimmage. 222 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 3: With a unique running game in that big offensive line, 223 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 3: the Philadelphia Eagles will have a lot of success. And 224 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 3: that success will make the game easy for Jalen Hurst 225 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 3: to throw easy completions off play action. 226 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 2: Right now, He's not built to be a drop back passer. 227 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 3: He needs the play action to create these big windows 228 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 3: so he can fire it in there. Because the run 229 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 3: in the pass and that melting, that's why you've seen 230 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 3: the decline. 231 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I would imagine this last week's game, you know, 232 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: kind of factored pretty heavily into that number and into 233 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: that drop for Jalen Hurts, especially when you consider the 234 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: turnovers and you know, it's not just the interceptions that 235 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: have been there, but he's kind of put the ball 236 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: in danger, you know, a fair amount. And yeah, some 237 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: of that is there's been a lot of you know, 238 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: he's seen an upticking attempts. It certainly feels like over 239 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks as it compared to where 240 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: they were a year ago when they were, you know, 241 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: the best rushing team in football and just have not 242 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: been there that way consistently yet this year. And while 243 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: you know, Jalen Hurts ends up being the leading rusher, 244 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: you know on his eight carries, a lot of that 245 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: come you know, at least half of those were coming 246 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 1: via scramble. So they can find ways to kind of 247 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: rekin that running game and that commitment to it that 248 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: way and minimize the risk. I think you'll start to 249 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: see the turnover numbers go down, to passer rating numbers 250 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: come up. 251 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 2: Unhurt stage, Yeah, I think, Look, they're still figuring it out, 252 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: and it's been kind of impressive, to be honest with you. 253 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: They've been winning games where they're still trying to find it. 254 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,719 Speaker 2: They haven't found their place. I do know one thing 255 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 2: that offense, you know, with Jalen Hurts, when you take 256 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 2: Lane Johnson out, man, it is a big difference. He's 257 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 2: just kind of been as our buddy Dave Danishek would 258 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 2: use the Jenga piece. You take Lane Johnson's out of there. Man, 259 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 2: it's just some reason they just can't they they can't 260 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 2: get right there. Let's get to the next one. I 261 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 2: want to talk about Jimmy Garoppolo. Looking at his numbers. Obviously, 262 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 2: last year was in San Francisco. You know, the turnovers 263 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 2: are the big difference. Last year in San Francisco sixteen touchdowns, 264 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 2: four picks. This year already he's got eight interceptions and 265 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 2: only seven touchdowns. So rehtt it's a new scheme. It's 266 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: a scheme, but he should be familiar with with his 267 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: background there with Josh McDaniels. But thus far early returns 268 00:11:59,360 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 2: hasn't been great. 269 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, went back and watched all the throws from 270 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: this last week and obviously he left the game with 271 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: the back injury. Don't know what his status is here 272 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: moving forward. Hopefully you can get back in there. So 273 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: the thing that I would say, you know, especially when 274 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: you compare it to last year, is let's look at 275 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: how we characterize the offensive lines for these two teams, 276 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 1: with the forty nine Ers and the Raiders. Would you 277 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,599 Speaker 1: say that the forty nine ers are generally speaking in 278 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: a better position than the Raiders because it's clear we'll 279 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: watch the tape. When you watch the tape on Jimmy, 280 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: I mean when the pocket is clean and he is 281 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: on rhythm and he gets that five step drop, puts 282 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: that fifth step in the ground and banging that balls 283 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: out on time, it is accurate. You saw that on 284 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 1: a deep out from DeVonta to DeVante Adams in this game. 285 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: You saw that on the Jacobe Myers touchdown in the 286 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 1: back of the end. 287 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 4: Zone in this game. 288 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: But man, I'm telling you when when he starts sensing 289 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: pressure on I mean, those feet fire like he's doing 290 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: a ladder drill, you know in an offseason workout, you know, 291 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: and it's like the bank he's got this, you know, 292 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 1: the footwork kind of goes, you know, haywire, you know, 293 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: and he's throwing balls, you know, like fadeaways off his 294 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: back foot, and that's when things really get off. If 295 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: they can continue to kind of find find a way 296 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: to upgrade that offensive line, both to keep Jimmy healthy 297 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: and to kind of help, you know, facilitate where he's best. 298 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: They don't move the pocket a lot either there, so 299 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 1: you got to find a way to make him a 300 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: bit more comfortable. 301 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Now you got to find a way to make 302 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 3: him a bit more comfortable and with Jimmy g Ruffalo, 303 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 3: like it's always about rhythm, timing, the execution. 304 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: He's just been in and out of the lineup. 305 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: The injuries tend to come with him each and every year, 306 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 3: and so it's always a problem. 307 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 2: I kind of want to bring up a little bit. 308 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 3: About Daniel Jones because Daniel Jones is on that list 309 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 3: and we're looking at the numbers and the drop off 310 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 3: and the Giants just aren't the same. 311 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: Last year they were. 312 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 3: Kind of on that magic carpet ride as they made 313 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 3: their way into the postseason, led you to give led 314 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 3: the Giants to give him a big contract, And so 315 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 3: now I feel like Brian day Ball and those guys 316 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 3: are trying to kind of figure out a. 317 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: Way to like show the football where a he is 318 00:13:59,280 --> 00:13:59,719 Speaker 2: worth this. 319 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 3: The issue that you have is without Saquon Barkley, a 320 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 3: lot of this stuff today we're able to do successfully. 321 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 2: Last year they haven't been able to do. 322 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 3: And so on a couple of these guys, we're talking 323 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 3: about the differences between being trucks and trailers. We are 324 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 3: seeing how some of these guys are impacted when you 325 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 3: remove a jinga piece. They don't have the ability to 326 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 3: make it right, and a lot of that is contributing 327 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 3: to some of the numbers, the downturning numbers. With seeing 328 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 3: some of these guys on the list, I'm going to 329 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 3: go through because I think there's an answer for all 330 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 3: these guys being on here, and I want to get through. 331 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 3: And there's one more I want to hit Bucky on 332 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 3: and then Rhett follow it up. But let's start when 333 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 3: we go to the top of the list. Ryan Tannehill, 334 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 3: this just looks like Age, right. 335 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 2: It just looks like he doesn't live around as well 336 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 2: as he could. You can look at some of the pieces. 337 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's one of the worst offensive 338 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 2: lines in the NFL. He doesn't have a pure number 339 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 2: one target on the outside. D Hop is just not 340 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 2: that guy anymore. But I think that let's look at 341 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 2: Age is the major reason Joe Burrow's health when we 342 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 2: know about the calf, missing all training camp, He's just 343 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 2: now starting to look a little more like himself. Daniel Jones, 344 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 2: the offensive line has been decimated with injuries and that's 345 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: been a major problem that he got himself hurt as well. 346 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: Jimmy Garoppolo goes from the Ferrari. You know, to a 347 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 2: more I don't want to miss any car company. So 348 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 2: to a non Ferrari, Jalen hurts, just a mississag ye 349 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: midsidetial sponsors, thank you, thank you, thank you. We don't 350 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 2: want to offend anybody, Jalen hurts. We mentioned it, new coordinator. 351 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 2: It's still they're feeling their way a little bit. The 352 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 2: one on the bottom is the one that's intriguing to me, 353 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 2: Buck because we thought last year, oh man, he's got 354 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 2: defensive coaches coaching offense. There's no there's no plan here. 355 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 2: Mac Jones had no chance. Well now he gets somebody 356 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: who has a track record in the history of being 357 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: a good play caller in this league and designing a 358 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 2: good offense, and Bob and Bill O'Brien, and it's ten 359 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 2: percent worse. So what do you attribute this to where 360 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 2: mac Jones is at this point in time? 361 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 3: Look, to me, is just a lack of weapons and 362 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 3: firepower on the perimeter. They don't have anybody that scares you, like, 363 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 3: who are you scared of? When you look their offense, 364 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 3: there's no one from a defensive standpoint that you're like, 365 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 3: oh my gosh, should we go We need a double 366 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 3: team Juju Smith, Schuster or Devonte Parker, those guys. So 367 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 3: it makes it very very hard for Mac Jones because 368 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 3: every throw is a contested, tight window throw and without 369 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 3: the assistance of the running game, those things make it hard. 370 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 3: And he's also a lot of confidence. He went from 371 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 3: being a Pro Bowl player to like falling off last year. 372 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 3: There was a conversation about Bailey Zappy. You just don't 373 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 3: know what that did to his psyche. He's not the 374 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 3: same player that we saw his rookie season. I don't 375 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 3: know how he gets it back, but the coaches have 376 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 3: the build him back. 377 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 2: Up if they're going to see the best of Mac Jones. 378 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 2: Scoring Foard. 379 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: He's got like two completions beyond twenty yards on the season. 380 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: Now is that weapons is that inaccuracy? I don't know, 381 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: because I'm watching this dude from his own end zone 382 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: throw a dime to Devonte Parker that he just straight 383 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: up drops, and we might be talking about this game 384 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: in a different light. I don't know that that was 385 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: solve all the ills that Mac Jones, you know, in 386 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: this offense has showed this season. But I think it's clear, 387 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 1: you know, I think a lot of times now, I 388 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 1: used the I use the the the Giants ownership quote 389 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: about Daniel Jones. We've done everything possible to screw this 390 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 1: guy up, as as kind of the north Star with 391 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: some of these struggling quarterbacks, like let's look at this. 392 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: Have they done everything to screw him up? Or have 393 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: they done everything to help him? 394 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 4: Right now? 395 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 1: I just I feel like Daniel or mac Jones is 396 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: kind of in a Daniel Jones situation from a year ago. 397 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,360 Speaker 1: And and hopefully, you know, they can find the right 398 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: combination of playmakers, play caller, whatever it is to you know, 399 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: rekindle what was you know, a renaissance from Daniel Jones 400 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: a year ago, and maybe Mack can find that as well. 401 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, maybe maybe Jacoby Myers is just 402 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 2: that good. I mean, because we could talk about maybe 403 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 2: didn't have much around him last year. I mean, the 404 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 2: only difference is Jacoby Myers apparently that was the that 405 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 2: was worth ten percent of production when it comes to 406 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 2: a passer rating. So Matt Patrician, we'll see, how't give 407 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 2: Matt Patrician, Yeah, exactly. Matt patricia is the offensive genius, 408 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 2: it turns out when it's all when it's all said 409 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 2: and done. All right, let's take a quick break when 410 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 2: we come back. It's rookie time, rookie draft time, and 411 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: I think Rhett had a good week. It pains me 412 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 2: to say it, but we'll get into that right off 413 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 2: host break. This November Sunday Morning football debuts in Frankfurt, Germany, 414 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 2: on NFL Network. First, on November fifth, the Dolphins take 415 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 2: on the Chiefs. Then on November twelfth, the Colts face 416 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 2: the Patriots. Rise, Shine, and watch only on NFL Network 417 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 2: and streaming on NFL Plus. All right, it's time for 418 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 2: our rookie recap, and it looks like it was a 419 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 2: good week for our buddy rhtt Here you get getting 420 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 2: three points from Zay Flowers. You got a point a 421 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 2: piece for ty J. Spears and Laporta, so a five 422 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 2: point week for him. I got a four point week. 423 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 2: B Jon Robinson has been a layup every week. He 424 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 2: gets me the three, Addison gets me the one, and 425 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 2: Bucky I got three points. But it was a nice 426 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 2: pick because I believe it was the first time that 427 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 2: Michael Mayer had been picked as a tight end, and 428 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: Buck ended up getting those three first place points there. 429 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 2: So if you look season wide, Buck, you're still you're 430 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 2: still in front man, you're a twenty five. I'm at 431 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 2: twenty or you're at twenty seven. I'm at twenty five. 432 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 2: Rehtt is starting to close the gap a little bit. 433 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 2: He's at nineteen. So once he gets to the point 434 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 2: where his first number is the same as our first number, 435 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 2: we'll start working. At this point time, we're okay. But 436 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 2: how about Mayor? How about the call on Michael Mayer 437 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 2: Buck nicely done, didn't work? 438 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, about time they finally used him over the middle 439 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 3: of the field. He's only one the best that we 440 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 3: saw in the draft last seas. It's about town. He 441 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 3: got some some reps. He's look, he's a. 442 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 2: Big time playmaker. Five for seventy five. 443 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 3: He utilized him, took advantage of some matchups over the 444 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 3: middle of the field, and with the Patriots doing what 445 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 3: the Patriots do, trying to take away Devantiana's making sure 446 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 3: that Jacobe Myers didn't get loose, it was a perfect 447 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 3: time for Mayor to get busy. 448 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, I think the consistency with Zay Flowers 449 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: is starting to pay off for me. You know, I 450 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: just I think, you know, he is clearly the best 451 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: wide receiver on that team right now, and he is 452 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: the guy that Lamar Jackson targets off and it's Mark 453 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: Andrews and z Flowers and that's kind of how I 454 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 1: thought it would go to start the season. 455 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 4: So zay the big reason why I was able to 456 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 4: get the dub this week over you guys. 457 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, nicely done. And Josh Downs was the almost pick. 458 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 2: Every week we have somebody that we discussed that we 459 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 2: almost pick, and uh and the tar Heel because it's 460 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 2: been the year of the tar Heel so far at 461 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 2: Bucky's college team being undefeated, having a great year. Josh 462 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 2: Downs got his first touchdown for the Colts, so good 463 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 2: to see him find his way into the end zone 464 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 2: as we introduce some new names here. Buck, good news 465 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 2: you've got you've got the lead. Better news, you have 466 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 2: the first pick this week. Again, no quarterbacks because we've 467 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 2: got Houston on a bye and we've got Richardson who 468 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 2: looks like could be out for the year, which is 469 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 2: a real bummer, so we might be we might see 470 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 2: in this lane for the rest of the year, looking 471 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 2: at running backs, wide receivers, tight end. So you got 472 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:55,719 Speaker 2: the first pick, Buck, you're up. 473 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 3: Well, let me make sure I'm checking my schedule again, 474 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 3: looking at my notes, make sure I get my guy. Yeah, yeah, 475 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 3: we're good to go. We're good to go this week. 476 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 3: So we go take Bijon Robinson. We're coming down. We 477 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 3: need to I guess the Tampa Bay bucket. I just 478 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 3: wanted to make sure, gotta take him, Gotta make sure 479 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 3: let's go. 480 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that was EASYTT go ahead, it is And 481 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 2: if it's not Bijeon, it's you know, who's going to 482 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 2: be the best tight end this week? 483 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 4: And this is just because there are fewer. 484 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:29,919 Speaker 1: Of them, and you know, it's a tough matchup for 485 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: Sam Laporta this week going up against the Ravens. 486 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 4: But then we got Michael Mayer. 487 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 1: I just I'm a little worried about the quarterback situation 488 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: in Las Vegas and whether that might affect going Michael 489 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: Mayer as well. 490 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 4: Though they do have the Chicago Bears this week, So 491 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 4: you know what, I'm gonna go back. I'm gonna go 492 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 4: back to Sam Laporta. Give me Sammy here yeap Laporta. 493 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 2: Laporta has He's just clearly established himself as the top 494 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: night end in terms of this draft we do every week. 495 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 2: It's you have to go in that direction. So I've 496 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 2: got to go Pooka with my first pick, who's been 497 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 2: the first white. We're out the board for several weeks now, Uh, 498 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 2: and you look, Addison's been playing great. A Flowers, I 499 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 2: gotta been playing great.

I'm 502 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 2: gonna go off the board a little bit here, and 503 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Jalil mcgloughlin. They're running back for 504 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,120 Speaker 2: the Broncos. It was a nice little change of pace 505 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 2: screen drawback, but I think I'm gonna I'm gonna go 506 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 2: with him with a chance to uh to get his 507 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 2: way into the end zone. It's a terrible team. I 508 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 2: get all that, uh, but I feel like, hey, the 509 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 2: Denver Broncos might find themselves down and uh, what comes 510 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 2: in handy when you're down in a ball game, I 511 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 2: don't know, check the ball down to your little back. 512 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 2: Julian mclafflin getting the in zone. 513 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: Can you spell McLoughlin. Uh starts to the m ends 514 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: with it in. That's all I need there you go. 515 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 1: It was the name of my orthodontist as a kid. 516 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: By the way, doctor McLoughlin. You know it then, don't 517 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: know how to spell it. 518 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 4: Now you'll have a big smile with McLoughlin this week. 519 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll sign. Okay, you're off at me, Yeah, yeah, yeah. 520 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: Give me Zay Flowers, Zaysey z Zay Flowers second straight week. 521 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: I just I feel like he's the guy. He is 522 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: the guy that's gonna get the targets from Lamar. And 523 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: I know it's a tough matchup with the Lions playing 524 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: good defense right now, but I think he's an easy and. 525 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 4: Easy bet for twelve to fifteen points. 526 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 2: All right, look back to. 527 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 3: Back, I get, I get, Yeah, I get back to back, 528 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 3: So we'll make it easy. So I'm gonna go with 529 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 3: Jordan Addison going big on his first Monday night football game. 530 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 2: I guess to forty nine ers. So let's take him, 531 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 2: and then let's follow it up. 532 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 3: Let's say if Mike American do it again, Let's say 533 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 3: if we can go back to back behind Bears. Don't 534 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 3: know if it should be a nice matchup, So let's 535 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 3: see if those young guys can get it down for 536 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 3: team bb. 537 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: Okay, it goes back to me, back to me now right, 538 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go I need a running back and the 539 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: running backs have become a little bit more difficult to 540 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 1: deal with here. Jamiir Gibbs, I think, is going to 541 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: be back for the Lions, and I know that David 542 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: Montgomery is going to miss some time, so that's an 543 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: opportunity there, although I just man, he just even when 544 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: Montgomery was out earlier in the year, wasn't a big 545 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: day for Jamier Gibbs. So I'm not ready to pull 546 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: the trigger there yet. You know what was kind of 547 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: interesting we didn't get to talk about a ton on 548 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: the Monday Pod guys, was the fact that the the 549 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams, I mean absolutely ran the rock in 550 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 1: the second half against the Arizona Cardinals. Kyran Williams had 551 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty eight yards one hundred and fifty 552 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,919 Speaker 1: four of them went in the second half. But I 553 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 1: don't know that he's going to be available for the 554 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: Rams this week, and his backup as well, I believe 555 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,719 Speaker 1: Ronnie Rivers might be down as well. So, guys, I'm 556 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: going to go with the rookie for the first time, 557 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: a new name out of the bucks. Here a day 558 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: three pick. Give me Zach Evans to lead the rams 559 00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: and rushing on this day. 560 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 2: Let's do it nice. I feel like if I had 561 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 2: to do more when we set this whole thing up, 562 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 2: we should. We should have instituted a one point bonus. 563 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 2: Anytime new name comes in and and he scores points, 564 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 2: you should get you should get one point bonus there. 565 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,479 Speaker 2: But it's too late. Those are the rules, you know, 566 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 2: we can't change at this point in time. That leaves 567 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 2: me with my final pick. And I might do a 568 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 2: ret here where I make a selection, but I monitor 569 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 2: it in cases gentleman does not play, so I can 570 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 2: then fill in on the back side of that. I'm 571 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 2: gonna go. Dalton Kincaid is my tight end. And I 572 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 2: was simply about this the other day. Yeah, yeah, I 573 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 2: didn't play. I believe it was a concussion. But hopefully 574 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 2: he's back against the Patriots this week. But I made 575 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 2: a comment with somebody, I said, you know, gosh, I thought, 576 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 2: and I know he missed a game, but I thought 577 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 2: he would be a little more productive and more of 578 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 2: a seven piece here for this Bill's offense. And you 579 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 2: look at the numbers right now, so he's played five games. Look, 580 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 2: he's been targeted nineteen times. Yes, seventeen catches, but it's 581 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 2: only one hundred and eighteen yards. That's just under seven 582 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 2: per catch and does not have a touchdown. And when 583 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 2: I when I brought that up with somebody, they said, 584 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 2: uh wow, you know, look, this is an offense overall 585 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 2: that hasn't found itself. So I still have hope that 586 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: they're going to figure things out and get into a groove. 587 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 2: And then you'll see, uh Dlon Kincaid start to get rolling. 588 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 2: But you got to get him back out in the field. 589 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 2: But Buck, isn't it nice having a safety net since 590 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: Rhett uh you know, broke the rules instead a new 591 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 2: standard that you know, Hey, if I wake up and 592 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 2: I think he might not play, I just go in 593 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 2: another direction. It's nice fallback. Yeah, well not. 594 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 3: I mean it is beautiful to make up your rules 595 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 3: as you go, like whatever you need. If you need 596 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 3: to keep one in your pocket just in case you 597 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 3: don't feel like it on game day, just send a 598 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 3: little text to trusted producing Drew and drawer mak app 599 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:43,959 Speaker 3: And so it's great. 600 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,120 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe Drew and I are just bet friends than 601 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: you guys are Wow. 602 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 2: Well, well, I'll tell you what if if if I 603 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 2: let my alma mater get beat by one hundred points 604 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 2: by Hotter, he probably like Comere as well. Unfortunately, my 605 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 2: album mater beat his alma mater back in the day 606 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 2: and very famous game. So maybe that's just a gap 607 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 2: of part of it and get over Yeah, maybe that's 608 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: it all right. I better get out of here before 609 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 2: Drew completely just cuts my mic here. That's enough Michigan slander. 610 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 2: And I probably shouldn't say anyth about Michigan because I 611 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 2: do think they're gonna win a national championship this year 612 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 2: and I'm sure Drew will enjoy that and never let 613 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 2: me hear the end of it. So let's wrap it 614 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 2: up right here. This has been a fun episode. Appreciate 615 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 2: you guys hanging with us, and we'll catch you next time. 616 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 2: Right here on, move the sticks.
