1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:02,600
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports.

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 2: Really count them one, two, three, four, five, six seven.

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:09,879
Speaker 2: That's how you know it's Week eighteen in the National

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 2: Football League. He is Carrie Rhodes. I'm Dan Byer. Welcome in.

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 2: As the playoff picture almost becomes clear after this late

6
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 2: slate of games, there's the Steelers Ravens game tonight in

7
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,480
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh that will decide the AFC North. But a lot

8
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 2: to be decided in this late window. But really, Carrie,

9
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 2: no games of head to head matchups that actually carry

10
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 2: as much weight as the Steelers and Ravens do tonight. Sure,

11
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos are playing for the number one overall

12
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 2: seed and the Chargers are in the playoffs, but the

13
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 2: Chargers resting their players today. No, Justin Herbert didn't even

14
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: suit up. You heard Manzi say Denver's got a ten

15
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 2: to nothing lead. The Bears trying to solidify the number

16
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: two spot. Detroit doesn't have anything to play for. Eagles

17
00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 2: trying to maybe get up to that number two spot,

18
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,279
Speaker 2: even though they're resting their starters, so maybe they don't care.

19
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 2: They've got the Commanders who have nothing to play for.

20
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 2: It is a funky, funky week eighteen, but it is

21
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 2: here and it will help settle the playoff picture almost

22
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 2: to fulfillment. Aside from tonight's game in Pittsburgh.

23
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 3: Very funky late day of football today, I mean even

24
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 3: just Sunday in general, there were some things that need

25
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: to be iron out. There were some teams playing for

26
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 3: division titles, and you know, some of those games were happening,

27
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 3: but like you said, they weren't happening had to head

28
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 3: so it wasn't as much drama. Both of those teams

29
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: played teams that were out of it and done, and

30
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 3: you didn't know what was going to be taking what

31
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 3: they were going to give on the field. We talked

32
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 3: about it like some guys check out early. Some guys

33
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 3: are still there to prove things and trying to show

34
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 3: up the teams that they can play well. So you

35
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 3: really don't know what's going to happen. Obviously, even these

36
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 3: games now, like for playoff positioning and seeding, it's not

37
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 3: like NBA where you can pick the best team of

38
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 3: the teams that you want to play and hopefully see

39
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 3: for that team and you know the team usually wins.

40
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 3: In the NFL, I mean in the NBA. In the NFL,

41
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 3: you get that one game scenario. You think you got

42
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 3: a team that you should beat, and it doesn't always

43
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 3: work out in your favorite So you just got to

44
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 3: go out and just play football.

45
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 2: You're absolutely right. And in the NBA, we've seen teams

46
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 2: try to jockey or manipulate their own playoff situation and

47
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 2: at times it's backfire. Yeah, thinking you're gonna play one

48
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 2: team because you wanted that route or you thought this

49
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 2: opponent was I just I just remember the year that

50
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 2: the Bucks in Celtics, and it wasn't the Celtics. It

51
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: was the Bucks trying to avoid a matchup with Durant

52
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: and and Kyrie and Brooklyn, and so the Bucks didn't

53
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 2: play their guys. At the end of the Celtics are like,

54
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 2: all right, we'll play them. Then the Celtics played when

55
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 2: they swept them in the first round and on their

56
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 2: way to you know, to Eastern Conference finals after that

57
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 2: and dispatching the Bucks in the next round. So there

58
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: was there's there's something to be said about playing out

59
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: your string. But Carrie and I are not gonna be

60
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 2: s here. Week eighteen needs a lot of work from

61
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 2: the NFL, and there is there is no covering this

62
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 2: up and this may be my seventh annual rant on

63
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 2: this topic. I feel like I do this every year,

64
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 2: but I've done it for sure since the NFL has

65
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: expanded to the seventeen game schedule and has it expanded

66
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 2: to these seven teams in each conference getting a playoff berth. Yeah,

67
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 2: the fact that the NFL tells us that winning your

68
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 2: division is so so important and it is so important,

69
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: then not only do you get a playoff berth, but

70
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 2: you get a home playoff game by winning your division.

71
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: The NFL tries to shove this down our throat, this

72
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 2: stupid narrative on how you should be rewarded with a

73
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 2: division home game or with a playoff home game if

74
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 2: you win your division, and it is way out of

75
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 2: whack for what the value of the division is. And

76
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: you want to know how I know this because the

77
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 2: NFL is telling you right to your face how unimportant

78
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 2: these games are. If the division actually mattered for teams

79
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 2: in the NFL, you wouldn't have four completely meaningless division

80
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: games in the early window. It gets me so mad, Carrie,

81
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 2: because they're trying to tell this narrative and to build

82
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 2: this drama, and they feel that everything is great because

83
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 2: guess what The Seahawks and Niners played for the number

84
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 2: one seed last night and tonight the Steelers and Ravens.

85
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: And isn't that what this is all about. No, that's

86
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 2: not what this is all about. If division games matter,

87
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: then make them matter. Don't schedule all the week eighteens

88
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 2: just so you can have a really cool Steelers Ravens matchup.

89
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 2: All division games should actually be done by week eighteen

90
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,559
Speaker 2: if you really want to settle it the right way,

91
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 2: because you shouldn't have the Cowboys and Giants playing for

92
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 2: absolutely nothing. That is a complete waste. And you had

93
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 2: four games earlier today Packers Vikings meant zero nada. That

94
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,679
Speaker 2: rivalry means a lot to both teams, to both fans.

95
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 2: That's what gets me so mad about this, Carrie, is

96
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 2: we're looking at these games right now. The Chargers actually

97
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 2: have something to play for. And I just mentioned justin

98
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: Herbert is in street clothes. So the NFL trying to

99
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 2: convince us that week eighteen matters and winning your division matters,

100
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 2: all of it contradicts itself for what we've got today. Sorry, Ramp,

101
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 2: but it really makes me mad, Carolina, Like I feel

102
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 2: sorry for the Rams and forty nine ers who were

103
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 2: gonna have to go on the road to face Carolina

104
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 2: because Carolina won a three team tiebreaker with an eight

105
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 2: and nine record. And I know that it's been the

106
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 2: situation the whole time. That's how we got the Beast Quake.

107
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 2: As a Seahawks fan, I quote unquote benefited from that,

108
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: But I knew well and good that the Saints were

109
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 2: getting screwed for having to go to Seattle to play

110
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 2: a game like that, just like the Rams and Niners

111
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 2: are getting screwed for having to go to Charlotte to

112
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: play against Carolina. Yeah, that one.

113
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 3: And I remember you when you first said this, and

114
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 3: I was I was really kind of taken aback how

115
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 3: how much it affected you. And then you know, fast

116
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 3: forward to now and you get to see some of

117
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 3: these meaningless games and understand what you're saying. And on

118
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 3: top of that, that home playoff game for a team

119
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 3: that's eight and nine just isn't justified in any way, Like, sure,

120
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 3: you want a division, but you really didn't win a division,

121
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 3: like you were kind of given to it by default. Yeah,

122
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 3: and then you get to host one of the teams

123
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 3: that have played all year as a superior team, and

124
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 3: a team that just because they were in a division

125
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 3: that was tougher than yours, gets penalized by it. So

126
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 3: for me, I'm starting, I'm starting slowly down to jump

127
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 3: on your room.

128
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 2: On this side of it. It's crazy, yeah, on this

129
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 2: on this side of the field, because there's just there's

130
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 2: too many things that just contradict each other. Bear's Lions

131
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 2: doesn't mean anything to the Lions except pride. Chris Purfett,

132
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: you're a Lions. I don't want to see your Allions fan.

133
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 2: You cover the team, But tell me about the fan

134
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 2: base and how they feel about today's game against Chicago.

135
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 4: I mean, I think they just don't want to get embarrassed.

136
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 4: I think the worst cases, like they didn't want Ben

137
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 4: Johnson to repay a fifty burger on them from earlier

138
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 4: in the season. But like, especially after the Vikings one,

139
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 4: you're now locked into fourth place, which means you'll get

140
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 4: a fourth place schedule. So yeah, I think this game

141
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 4: just doesn't really mean anything except a little bit of

142
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 4: wounded pride at the end of the day.

143
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 2: And that's a shame. That's really a shame because the

144
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: NFL is going to convince you that what we had

145
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 2: yesterday and what we have tonight is what it's all about.

146
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 2: And I know there's no perfect system. I know that

147
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 2: there's no way to do it, but it's just the

148
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 2: contradiction carry of winning your division is so so important,

149
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: but then these division games here aren't important in some

150
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 2: are absolutely meaningless. There's just there's something that has to give.

151
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 2: I wish the I don't know how you change the

152
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 2: playoff format. I don't know if you get three buys,

153
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 2: I'm not sure exactly and how you're going to be

154
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 2: able to work out the whole thing. But it's just

155
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 2: to me, it's a bit of a mess, and it's

156
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 2: all covered up because the NFL can say, hey, we

157
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 2: got Raven Steelers with Lamar Jackson against Aaron Rodgers in

158
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 2: prime time for a playoff berth and the division crown

159
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 2: like that, that makes it all good when in these

160
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 2: seven games, I don't know what a lot of good

161
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: that there is in these seven games.

162
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 3: But you also got to think about from this perspective, Dan, Yeah,

163
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 3: I mean, right now, with what we have, the tangible

164
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 3: evidence of these games right now, one hundred percent true.

165
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 3: But if you go into this year and you have

166
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 3: a bird's eye view, and you look at this from

167
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 3: a different perspective, right, just from another Just to give

168
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 3: another side of the argument, Both of these teams are

169
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 3: supposed to be good, right, the Eagles and Commanders, so

170
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 3: come into the year, they would think that this would

171
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,359
Speaker 3: be meaningful, right, And then you look at Chargers, Broncos

172
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 3: it should be meaningful. Chargers aren't playing their guys. So

173
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 3: I mean, like, if you look at it just from

174
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 3: a purely based scheduling thing, you'd be like, oh, this

175
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 3: looks appealing, but it's not.

176
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: It also comes down to performance. And I think that

177
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 2: your example is so perfect with Denver and the Chargers,

178
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 2: because honestly, Carrie, it's played out pretty much like you

179
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 2: would have thought, except last week the Charger at home

180
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,839
Speaker 2: against the Houston Texans, with so much to play for,

181
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 2: laid a bit of an egg and had the opportunity

182
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 2: to win the division taken out of their hands. So

183
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 2: the NFL now has a essentially now it's not meaningless

184
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 2: because Denver's fighting for home field. But when the Chargers say, yes,

185
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 2: well we can't win the division, I guess we just

186
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 2: it's more important for us for Justin Herbert to not

187
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 2: be hurt than to be the five seed. And the

188
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 2: Texans won today, so they couldn't have been the five seeds.

189
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 2: So they're saying it's more important for us to keep

190
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 2: Justin Herbert healthy than it is to hold on to

191
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 2: the six seed. And I wholeheartedly agree with that, especially

192
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 2: when you're not even sure who's going to be the

193
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 2: two and the three. Like the Chargers did what they're

194
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 2: supposed to do, they didn't do what they were supposed

195
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 2: to do last week and kind of screwed up the

196
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 2: plan that you said could have been in place for

197
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 2: the Chargers and Broncos. But that's how flimsy of a

198
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: plan it is for the NFL. By putting all of

199
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 2: these division games in Week A, all you need, all

200
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 2: you need is one game to work out that you

201
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,839
Speaker 2: can put on Sunday Night Football exactly. And it's a

202
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 2: gold mine for the NFL in Week eighteen. And I

203
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 2: think that if you were to do that just I

204
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 2: don't know, play conference games. We added a game to

205
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 2: the to the schedule where you have a cross conference game.

206
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 2: Maybe that's the Week eighteen game, I'm not sure, but

207
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 2: you would have at least I think one random matchup

208
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 2: somewhere along the way. That would mean something that you

209
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 2: could put it in primetime and make it worthwhile.

210
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 3: Why do you think the division needs to be done

211
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 3: before Week eighteen?

212
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 2: Like, I mean, I know you, I know what the

213
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 2: argument is better? Yeah, yeah, because then all division games matter.

214
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,559
Speaker 2: In this scenario, none of these division games actually matter.

215
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 2: There is no The Packers and Vikings did not matter

216
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 2: one bit today Green Bay was locked into the seventh seed.

217
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 2: That's that's not a good product. If you're a football

218
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 2: fan and you're waiting for the schedule to be released

219
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 2: in and you're a Packers fan, you're saying to yourself, Okay,

220
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 2: I know, you know, we know we're gonna play the

221
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 2: Bears home and away. We know we're gonna play the

222
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 2: Vikings home and away. Those are gonna be good games.

223
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 2: If you're a fan in Minnesota, I got to get

224
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 2: tickets to the Packer game. Got to see that when

225
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 2: they come to town. Like that is a valuable game on

226
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: your schedule. It is a top game on your schedule.

227
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 2: And it could have been could have been Packers Bears

228
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,959
Speaker 2: this week. You know we've had it. We had it

229
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 2: last year. We had Packers Bears last week for that

230
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 2: game last year, to be kind of it ended up

231
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 2: not being meaningless. But Green Bay didn't play their guys

232
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 2: and the Bears and Caleb Williams came back, and it

233
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 2: affected the seating of the NFC, But for that product

234
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 2: on that day, it just didn't matter. So that's why

235
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 2: I think it matters, is if you want to place

236
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 2: so much weight on winning a division, then you better

237
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 2: make these other division games count and then you could

238
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 2: maybe have more options at the end of the season

239
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 2: on what games to air and not to air. It's

240
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 2: just it's funny to me that the the Green Bay

241
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 2: Packers today played their seventeenth game of the season, and

242
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 2: five of those games mattered against division opponents, right the

243
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,439
Speaker 2: sixth one didn't even matter whatsoever. And I think that

244
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 2: that's where the NFL just completely misses the boat on this.

245
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 3: What do you think about the And I think this

246
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 3: also affects it right because of them trying to monopolize

247
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 3: the days and make money every day. If those games

248
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 3: Saturday were on today, that would be a different story

249
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 3: as well.

250
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 2: Yes, I the only reason like that's you're one hundred

251
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 2: percent right, Like they just they they found three games

252
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 2: that mattered, right, like the three games that mattered they had.

253
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 2: They have the opportunity to flex on what you have

254
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 2: on they The NFL told you right to your face

255
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 2: the games that you should watch today exactly or this week. Yeah,

256
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: it's tonight and it was yesterday. Yeah, and that's why

257
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 2: none of this matters, and it's listen. I think it's frustrating.

258
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 2: Think fantasy football players are like, gosh, what do I do?

259
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 2: I am having withdrawal? This is I'm watching football and

260
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 2: none of it matters. I just saw Bonicks complete a

261
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 2: short pass to Evan Ingram and I'm not going to

262
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 2: get six yards from Boonicks on that pass like that is.

263
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 2: That is frustrating. That is and there's value and people

264
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 2: are interested. People are interested in the NFL because of

265
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 2: fantasy football that isn't happening this week. The way to

266
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: bet on these games is you're trying to find out

267
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 2: is Jalen Hurt's gonna play or not? There's it gonna

268
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 2: be Tanner McKee, then I'll bet that way. Like that's

269
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 2: that's the edge. I would assume that betters probably do

270
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 2: pretty well this week, and knowing what teams actually have

271
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 2: momentum and reason to play and who's not going to play.

272
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 2: You wouldn't know by looking at my pick sheet. But

273
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 2: I think guys who actually know how to pick football

274
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 2: would be able to do.

275
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 5: So.

276
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 2: It's just I don't want to I don't want to

277
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 2: come out here and fake that all of this stuff

278
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 2: is great. I just think that there are really really

279
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 2: big problems which is separate from the actual thing that

280
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,839
Speaker 2: we will report and talk about, and that's we'll Denver

281
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 2: get the one seed, kin New England hold on and

282
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 2: beat Miami and be the two seed. Or is Jacksonville

283
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 2: gonna move up because one of those teams are gonna lose.

284
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 2: Can Philadelphia get a win or they scoreboard watching with

285
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 2: the Bears. All of these things are like somewhat intertwined

286
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 2: to develop the bracket. But these teams are telling you

287
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 2: what they think of the NFL system by playing and

288
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 2: not playing the guys in these games today. Yeah, the

289
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:08,679
Speaker 2: Betton world.

290
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 3: If I was anybody that was in the betting world

291
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 3: at this point, I wouldn't be doing any of that

292
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 3: in this window obviously.

293
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 2: I mean you look at that Houston game. So Houston

294
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 2: and Jacksonville.

295
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 3: Were planned for a possible the winner of the AFC

296
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 3: North I mean not the North but the AFC South.

297
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 3: And so you come in, you're playing these games, and

298
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 3: you know both teams are scoreboard watching, right, and you

299
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 3: know that all right, Houston saying we want to win

300
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 3: this game, we want to end up on a on

301
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 3: a high note. You know, we won nine in a row, whatever,

302
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 3: now ten in a row. They didn't win. But you're

303
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 3: looking at the scoreboard and seeing that Jacksonville is hendling

304
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 3: business against Tennessee and then you don't even come out

305
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 3: and play in the second half. So how could you

306
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 3: how could you bet that anyway? You don't know who's

307
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 3: gonna play, right, Well, this is what's happening.

308
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 2: So Denver right now looking for that number one overall

309
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 2: seed in the AFC. With a win against the Chargers,

310
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: they would get that number one overall seed. They lead

311
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 2: LA by a score of ten to nothing. The Patriots,

312
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 2: trying to solidify that two seed, are up on the

313
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 2: Dolphins in the second quarter fourteen to seven. Chiefs and Raiders.

314
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 2: Raiders already clinched the number one overall pick, kudos to them.

315
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 2: They trail three to nothing in the second quarter to

316
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 2: Kansas City, while Buffalo saying goodbye to High Mark Stadium,

317
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 2: something will get into They lead Carries one of Carrie's

318
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 2: former team, the Jets, fourteen to nothing, so the Bills

319
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: with a Chargers loss, could move up in the standings

320
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 2: in the AFC with a Chargers trailing. Right now, Carrie's

321
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 2: other former team, the Cardinals, tied with the Rams at

322
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 2: six apiece. With the Rams they get a win, they're

323
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 2: going to be the five seed and we'd travel to

324
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 2: Carolina next weekend. If they lose, the forty nine Ers

325
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 2: end up being the five seed and the Rams become

326
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 2: the sixth seed. The Bears trying to wrap up that

327
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 2: two seed with a win. They trail the Lions right

328
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 2: now six to nothing, and Detroit has the football. While

329
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 2: the Eagles could benefit from a Lion's victory over the Bears,

330
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 2: but they're getting all they can handle from the Commanders,

331
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 2: tied up at seven apiece with about seven minutes to

332
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 2: go until halftime. Be sure to subscribe to the Fox

360
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 7: red hot today, delivering for fifteen to his back.

361

Speaker 1: Back to Dan Byer and carry Rhoades.

362
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 2: Now that's the one outcome that could change things in

363
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 2: the NFC. Ninety seven points won the Ticket and Lions

364
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,640
Speaker 2: Radio network. As Detroit is up thirteen to nothing. They've

365
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 2: been on the field a lot the Lions offense. Bears

366
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 2: had just twelve plays so far this game, compared to

367
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 2: the Lions thirty four offensive plays as they play in Chicago.

368
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 2: Bears need this win or an Eagles loss to wrap

369
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 2: up the number two seed. Eagles and Commanders tied up

370
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 2: at seven apiece with four minutes to go until halftime.

371
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 2: Rams are driving tied with the Cardinals at six apiece,

372
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 2: builds up on the Jets fourteen nothing. Denver leads the

373
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 2: Chargers ten nothing. Kansas City's flanking the Raiders three nothing,

374
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: and the Patriots have a fourteen to seven lead on

375
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 2: the Dolphins. Jaguars are keeping their eye on the Patriots

376
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 2: and Broncos, but earlier today they had their eyes set

377
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 2: on a division crown of the Tennessee Titans.

378
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 1: Right now, it's time for the NFL on focks focus.

379
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 2: Adam Amine was on the call for Fox Sports as

380
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 2: the Jaguars rolled to a forty one seven victory over

381
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans. Today, Adam, Happy New Year.

382
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 8: How are you doing great? Guess how are you doing?

383
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 2: Doing well? Trevor Lawrence seems to be doing all right

384
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 2: as well. Another big day for the Jaguars quarterback their

385
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,679
Speaker 2: division winners. There seemed to be no letup for a

386
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 2: team and with a Titans squad that came in today

387
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 2: with not much to play for and Okam Ward had

388
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 2: to leave early, but it seemed that Jacksonville said, hey,

389
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 2: let's just get this thing done and done early.

390
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 8: I was interested to hear the message for Liam Cohen

391
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 8: this week. So I typically ask a coach when they

392
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 8: have some stakes. You know, there's certain things to play for,

393
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 8: specific things to play for. I go, how do you

394
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 8: deliver that to how do you contextualize that for you know,

395
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,160
Speaker 8: a room full of you know, sixty people, for them

396
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 8: to all understand what your goals are and what your

397
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 8: process should be that week. And he said, you know,

398
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 8: we stick with the whole one or a mentality, which

399
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,360
Speaker 8: often sounds like a cliche, but I do think it's

400
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 8: probably helped first year head coach that has a group

401
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 8: of up and coming players on offense and some established

402
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 8: veterans on defense to kind of be focused game to

403
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 8: game to game. That's why you come out focused against

404
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 8: the Denver team, come back strong, you know, against multiple

405
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 8: opponents over the course of the second half of the year.

406
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 8: That's why you take Las Vegas seriously. I think that

407
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 8: blowout fourth quarter loss to Houston when they blew that game,

408
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 8: that debacle, you know, about two months ago, I think

409
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 8: that opened up a lot eyes. So they seem like

410
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 8: they wanted to take it seriously. They had Lawrence in

411
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 8: there until you know, he hit four thousand yards. They

412
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 8: wanted to try to get some incentives for guys, and

413
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 8: they wanted to dominate, and it looked like and so

414
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 8: to me, that looks like a team that's prepared, you know,

415
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 8: that that has a mentality and has a process that

416
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 8: they want to you know, replicate and follow again for

417
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 8: a game that's going to have very very very high

418
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,719
Speaker 8: stakes next week, assuming you know they end up as

419
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,959
Speaker 8: the three seed or whatever it may be, They're going

420
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 8: to have a tough opponent no matter what, whether it's

421
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 8: Buffalo or Houston or potentially La Like, you're gonna have

422
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 8: a really hard opponent. So I think that was the

423
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 8: right process I've been impressed with how Liam Cohne has

424
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 8: gone about his business in preparing his team weeks to

425
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 8: lead Adam.

426
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 3: I mean it was impressive. I mean even today they

427
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,199
Speaker 3: fell down seven to zero and then you know, just

428
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 3: turned it on and pulled it on for the rest

429
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 3: of the game. So obviously the message was received. But

430
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 3: I mean Trevor Lawrence is I mean, he's no Dan

431
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 3: alluded to. I mean, he's been playing excellent football and

432
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 3: I know it kind of coincides with the acquisition of

433
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 3: Jacoby Myers, but it can't.

434
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 2: It can't just all be Jacobe Myers.

435
00:20:58,400 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 3: What are you saying with Trevor and how is he

436
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 3: processing everything at a different level right now?

437
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, I think how they they The Myers

438
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 8: thing certainly helps because it just puts guys in certain spots,

439
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,239
Speaker 8: right like now, I know where my ex is going

440
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 8: to be, I know or who my ex is going

441
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 8: to be on every play. I know where Brian Thomas Jr. Is,

442
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 8: I know where Myers is going to be.

443
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: I know that these.

444
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 8: Guys take over certain areas of the field and I

445
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 8: can trust that. So that's one part of it, for sure.

446
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,199
Speaker 8: I think the second part of it is trusting his

447
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 8: athletic ability. You know, I was, I was watching that

448
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 8: Colts game last week, and they're running like speed options,

449
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 8: you know, like they're running college stuff that Trevor Lawrence

450
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 8: and Travis Etn ran for Dabo Sweeney for you know,

451
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 8: a handful of years together. They want to college championship. Uh,

452
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 8: you know, run into a certain style.

453
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 2: You have to bring it up. They play Louisville a

454
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 2: couple of times and then and didn't do it.

455
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,199
Speaker 8: Oh, I know, I know those acency matchups and I'm

456
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 8: called a couple of them. I know those clubs of

457
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 8: Louisville games can get a little chippy and then like

458
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 8: those are always fun to watch. But like, you know,

459
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 8: their offense was sharp and and I think taking elements

460
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 8: of that and applying it to an NFL offense, I

461
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 8: think it certainly helped. As the season went on, you

462
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 8: saw more design quarterback run. You saw more scramble situations

463
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 8: where Lawrence felt comfortable moving out of the pocket and

464
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 8: trying to make a play. I think there's something to that,

465
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,159
Speaker 8: especially in a modern NFL where you have a lot

466
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 8: of teams that have real athleticism on the defensive side

467
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 8: of the ball. Now like you have to be able

468
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 8: to at times outrun them, and I thought as the

469
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 8: year went on, Trevor felt more comfortable doing that. And

470
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 8: then I do also think that opened up a little

471
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:31,959
Speaker 8: bit of the deep pats in games. Some of that

472
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 8: was in scramble situation, some of that was designed so

473
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 8: to be able to push the ball downfield. All these

474
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,719
Speaker 8: things had to be in concert with one another, and

475
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 8: I think the domino effect is real where the personnel's right,

476
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 8: the athleticism is established and exploited and utilized, and then

477
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:50,880
Speaker 8: the big plays are results of that.

478
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 2: Adam Amine joining us after calling the Jaguars win over

479
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 2: the Titans today forty one to seven. Usually there wouldn't

480
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 2: be much to say about the Titans. I am just

481
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,919
Speaker 2: curious how an organization approaches week eighteen when you fired

482
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 2: your coach during the season. I believe over the weekend

483
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 2: they had kind of clarified or restructured their front office

484
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 2: in a way that should set them up in a

485
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 2: way so the next coaching hire asm clarity on who

486
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,919
Speaker 2: they report to. But what was your sense from the

487
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 2: Titans for guys that probably won't be there next year,

488
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 2: and how you will approach a week like this.

489
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 8: Well, I think Jeffrey Simmons, who's said he wanted to

490
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 8: be more of a leader this year, and we tracked

491
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 8: him a couple of times because we had him early

492
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 8: in the season, we had him midway through, we had

493
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,439
Speaker 8: him lead. You know, he kind of kept pushing that

494
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 8: message to guys, like you're responsible for your careers. You know,

495
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 8: you're putting stuff on tape. This is coming from a

496
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,439
Speaker 8: guy who's been part of division championship teams and been

497
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 8: a part of playoff teams, but has also been part

498
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 8: of last place teams, teams that have lost twelve, thirteen,

499
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 8: fourteen games. So I think that's a good guy to

500
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 8: look to for some of this perspective. And he's the

501
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 8: one who's telling guys like, you're putting stuff on tape.

502
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 8: You might not be playing there next year, but plan

503
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 8: for a job. And I do think when you take

504
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 8: one big step back. I mean, we make all these

505
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 8: jokes about these big money incentives, and I was like, oh,

506
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 8: that's Sacks worth a million bucks and that catches worth

507
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 8: five hundred grand, and I joke around about it too,

508
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 8: But at the end of the day, for a lot

509
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 8: of these guys, like they're not all making ten, fifteen, twenty,

510
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 8: twenty five million dollars a year to play football. Some

511
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 8: of them are working on the minimum, Some of them

512
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 8: are undrafted free agents that are on one year deals.

513
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 8: A lot of guys are are getting flyers taken on them.

514
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 8: You you understand what this is like, Okay, Like you've

515
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,120
Speaker 8: been around guys like that during your career, where it's

516
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,919
Speaker 8: like you know that they're living, you know, legitimately and

517
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 8: honestly playing for like the next check and to keep

518
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 8: their careers going, to have a living, to take care

519
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 8: of their families. So I think hearing that, just the

520
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 8: human side of that is a good reminder for the

521
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 8: guys that like, aren't going to be part of this

522
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 8: organization but obviously have dreams and aspirations or even more

523
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 8: practical purposes for having a career, you know, playing in

524
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 8: the NFL. I think a lot of those guys kind

525
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 8: of understood that message. That's part of being a professional

526
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 8: in any line of work, but certainly in this this

527
00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 8: line of work too, even if it is a multi

528
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 8: billion dollar business for our entertainment.

529
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 3: You're talking about Jeffrey Simmons and his leadership abilities. I

530
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 3: want to talk about cam Ward. Obviously, this is what

531
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 3: I'm sure he wouldn't be satisfied with the season that

532
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 3: he had personally and this team.

533
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,439
Speaker 2: I mean, you look at his numbers right now, I'm

534
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 2: looking at looking at them right now.

535
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 3: I mean, thirty one hundred yards, fifteen touchdown, seven interceptions

536
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 3: for a rookie does not sound bad. But what are

537
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 3: what are they going to have to do to utilize

538
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 3: him being if they if they believe that he is

539
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 3: the guy, Like, what are the things or the pieces

540
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 3: they need to add to that team to give him

541
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 3: the best chance to be successful.

542
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 2: In the NFL.

543
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 8: I think Trevor Lawrence is actually a nice model for

544
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 8: how to develop cam Ward because Cam like Lawrence, is

545
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,959
Speaker 8: a guy that has an incredible amount of athleticism. It

546
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 8: probably has a skill set that's a little deeper than

547
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 8: what he's shown as an NFL quarterback. And obviously, you know,

548
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 8: a one year full of starts, even as many as

549
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 8: he had, probably not enough time to really figure it

550
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 8: out yet. I think there's more to cam in terms

551
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 8: of being outside the post. But I like that he

552
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 8: spent most of his first year in the pocket, like

553
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 8: he made it a big point, especially you know, we

554
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 8: had him Week one, I did his NFL debut, and

555
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,199
Speaker 8: he said, I'm a pocket passer. He didn't run a

556
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 8: ton in college. You know, he did obviously like some

557
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 8: of the defenses he was playing like they're not NFL

558
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 8: caliber defenses. But he was able to sit back in

559
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 8: the pocket, learn how to read progressions, you know, fifty

560
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 8: some odds starts at the college level between a couple

561
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 8: different you know, between fcs and FBS and all that.

562
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 8: But it's a lot of time to learn that stuff,

563
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 8: and I'm glad he spent his first year utilizing those

564
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 8: skills first, because I do think it's going to be

565
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 8: who him in a positive way to use his legs

566
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 8: as time goes on. But the fact that he spent

567
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 8: as much time as he did in the pocket is good.

568
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 8: I think he got better as the year went on.

569
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 8: Part of that is because he was, like Trevor Lawrence,

570
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 8: willing to use his legs, willing to use his athleticism

571
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 8: and still uses his arm on the move to be

572
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 8: able to make bigger plays as the season went on.

573
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 8: I think More is a really good model for how

574
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 8: you can develop cam Or because he does have a

575
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 8: lot of experience. He has really high IQ for the game.

576
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 8: He's a leader, he is very serious about the game,

577
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 8: and I do think he's going to get a little stronger.

578
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 8: He's going to have a little more weight. He'll be

579
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 8: able to sustain a little or a take on and

580
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 8: you know, absorb a little bit more punishment physically. You know,

581
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 8: that was a pretty tough hit he took today that

582
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 8: forced him out of the game with that shoulder injury.

583
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 8: So I think I think this next year is going

584
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 8: to be really important for Tim because I think he's

585
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 8: got all the tools necessary to be the type of

586
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 8: quarterback you can build a program around.

587
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 2: I just want to end with this. Adam Amin on

588
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 2: the call for the Jaguars win over the Titans today.

589
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 2: You saw it on Fox. Adam has joined us periodically

590
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: throughout the year. On one of the episodes, I told

591
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 2: Carrie Adam that I thought the NFC playoff picture was set.

592
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 2: Like in Week seven, Adam, remember this, I was five

593
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 2: out of seven and I don't know if that's good

594
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 2: or bad, because I think three of them were about given.

595
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 2: But at the time, the Buccaneers were in the playoffs,

596
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 2: the Panthers weren't, the Lions were in, and the bas weren't,

597
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,679
Speaker 2: So that's how it ended up turning around.

598
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:03,880
Speaker 9: But that's not too bad.

599
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 8: I all think it's considered that's not too bad. But

600
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 8: I also speak to you know, the the second half

601
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 8: nature of this sport, right like like the do you

602
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 8: really figure out who teams are come November and into

603
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 8: December and where we're starting to be the picture clarify

604
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 8: a little bit now.

605
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 2: The craziest stat the Jaguars in the year winners of

606
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 2: their last eight, Texans won their last nine, Colts lost

607
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 2: their last seven, So that upside down. Adam, Happy New

00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 10: Very different. Don't make me look that up. That's gonna

622
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 10: be hard.

623
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 2: I was eks ago would have been not in the playdoffs.

624
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 2: What I was going to say was, Manci, while you

625
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 2: say something, I may look this up.

626
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 11: Looked.

627
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 10: I was like, yeah, you looked that up. I was like,

628
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 10: because it's way different.

629
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 11: I think you're right that Houston may have not even

630
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 11: been in the postseason at that point.

631
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 10: Second, Oh my goodness, I think you're so you think

632
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 10: you're so right. We are in the upside down. That's

633
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 10: what it feels like.

634
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 11: Tanner McKee probably wishes he was in the upside down.

635
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 11: He just threw an interception in the end zone for

636
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 11: the Eagles, so Commander's got the ball back. That game

637
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 11: is tied late in the second quarter. The Dolphins just

638
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 11: blocked a Patriots field goal attempt, so they kept it

639
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 11: to a one score game. Patriots are up fourteen to seven,

640
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 11: also late in the second quarter. Most of these games

641
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 11: are late in the second quarter. It's just actually all

642
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 11: of them are. The Rams got in the end zone

643
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 11: as of course, Matthew Stafford connected with Phukanakua. The Rams

644
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 11: are currently up on the Cardinals thirteen to six Raiders

645
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 11: and the Chiefs.

646
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 10: That's a good one tie.

647
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 11: That three apiece Raiders do have the number one pick

648
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 11: in the upcoming draft. By the way, because earlier today

649
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 11: the Giants outscore Cowboys thirty four to seventeen. And we'll

650
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 11: talk about the earlier games in just a second. Broncos

651
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 11: are up on the Chargers ten zero. Trey Lance and

652
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 11: for the Chargers, that is the name I haven't seen

653
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 11: in a while.

654
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 10: He's not doing too hot. They won't leave it at that.

655
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 10: We'll leave it at that. The lively the Bears thirteen.

656
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 11: Zero, and the Bills are up on the Jets twenty

657
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 11: one zero. Will the Jets get an interception?

658
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 10: Carry? No, No, that's gonna help all.

659
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 2: Will yes Excity, Well he's out.

660
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 11: Jo, he took the snap to continue to streak. Yeah,

661
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 11: Mitch Trubisky is in. It's not happy to fifteen of nineteen,

662
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 11: one hundred and sixty nine yards and two touchdowns.

663
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 10: So it can happen. It can happen, It can happen.

664
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 10: The Jaguars are on a roll, guys.

665
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 11: They've won eight in a row to end the regular season,

666
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 11: crushing the Titans.

667
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 10: As you guys mentioned not long ago, forty one to seven.

668
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 11: They're still a live for the number one seed in

669
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 11: the AFC, and of course they win the AFC South.

670
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 11: And also Ken Little hit a sixty seven yard field

671
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 11: goal in the game, so he had the sixty eight

672
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 11: yard earlier in the season. Now sixty seven Falcons held

673
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 11: on nineteen to seventeen against the Saints. Congratulations to the

674
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 11: Panthers then for winning the NFC South for the first

675
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 11: time since twenty fifteen.

676
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 10: The Texans right at.

677
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 11: The end of the game at the end of the game,

678
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 11: got a scoop and score literally in the final seconds,

679
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 11: so they ended up beating the Colts thirty eight to thirty.

680
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 11: The Browns walked it off with the field goal to

681
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 11: defeat the Bengals twenty to eighteen. But more importantly, Miles

682
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 11: Garrett did break the NFL's single season sack record, ending

683
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 11: with twenty three, and the Vikings beat the Packers sixteen

684
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 11: to three. In men's college hoops, I'll tell you Yukon

685
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 11: has one ton in a row. They outscored Market seventy

686
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 11: three to fifty seven. And the NBA, the Pissons beat

687
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 11: the Cavs one fourteen to one ten in Cleveland. Their

688
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 11: first win in Cleveland since twenty twenty. And in college football,

689
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 11: ESPN reports that former TCU quarterback Josh Hoover has committed

690
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 11: to Indiana wo.

691
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 9: In the up.

692
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 11: A couple of other sign goodness, good.

693
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 2: Look at that. They're they're number one in the country,

694
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 2: they're unbeaten, they're living it up in the transfer portal.

695
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 2: Just everybody. Yeah, I never just like, look at that

696
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 2: little right, Manti's been looking for a college football team

697
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 2: for you. Maybe Dan no I told her Louisville.

698
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 10: He did, No, you can't.

699
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 2: You can't make her Swistiana. Now she never she never,

700
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 2: never said she never ever committed.

701
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 11: To I never committed to any because I can't because

702
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 11: I'd be a fraud carry fraud.

703
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 10: So I could just you know, jump ship week to week.

704
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 10: I like this team.

705
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 11: Now.

706
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 2: Do you want to know the standings in the a

707
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 2: f C South after Week eight?

708
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 10: Yes, the Colts.

709
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 2: Were seven and one. The Jaguars were four and three

710
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 2: and three and four.

711
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 10: Damn how the tables have turned right?

712
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: Yes, yep? What could have been?

713
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 9: Oh, what could have been?

714
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 2: The Colts at that time, at seven and one, had

715
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 2: a game lead over Denver and New England for the

716
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 2: number one seed to your point of having home field advantage,

717
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 2: and they're going to be home for the playoffs.

718
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 3: And I remember, I told you this season we started

719
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 3: off four and oh and we thought we were going

720
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 3: to the super Bowl. It was the Rats, right, and

721
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 3: we didn't win a game the rest of the year,

722
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 3: so we I guess we would be the Colts in

723
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 3: this situation. The lost eight in a row.

724
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 2: Right, the Colts clinched home couch advantage. That's what they

725
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 2: have clinched throughout these NFL playoffs. I got a nice couch.

726
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna this is quick point. Riley Leonard. Today in

727
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 2: the loss for Indiana, you gave me. I told you

728
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 2: this day, but we talked about it. I was like,

729
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 2: let that man, let's see what he asked Riley Leonard.

730
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 2: In the losing effort through for two hundred and seventy yards,

731
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 2: two touchdowns and an interception. I had three carries for

732
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 2: twenty one yards and a rushing touchdown. And listen, I

733
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 2: wouldn't trade the Philip Rivers experience for the world. And

734
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 2: Riley Leonard was dinged up, which was the reason why

735
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 2: they brought Philip Rivers in in the first place, because

736
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,360
Speaker 2: there wasn't any guarantee that he was going to be

737
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 2: able to play after they lost in Jacksonville and then

738
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 2: went and played in Seattle. But maybe Riley Leonard would

739
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 2: have been all right, right, I mean, the Colts didn't

740
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,720
Speaker 2: win any of the games that that Philip Rivers started,

741
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,479
Speaker 2: so maybe they would have been.

742
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 3: I'm glad you brought it off because I wanted to

743
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 3: bring it up to you. I definitely would have forgotten.

744
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 3: But he looked great, and he was playing against the

745
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 3: Texas number one defense in that first half. It wasn't

746
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 3: like he was playing against fair Hope out there, playing

747
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 3: against the real guys, and just his his level of

748
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 3: athleticism that he had, and also just being able to

749
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 3: throw the ball thirty yards down the field sure like

750
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,280
Speaker 3: being able to space it out and have the whole

751
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 3: field live.

752
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 12: It was.

753
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 2: It was a big deal. Was it was pretty to

754
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 2: see it that, you know. One of the interesting things

755
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 2: is sometimes I never get why when you have a

756
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 2: backup quarterback he doesn't match the skill set of your starter.

757
00:34:58,320 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 2: So Philip Rivers isn't going to be back with the

758
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 2: We don't know what the future of Anthony Richardson is

759
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 2: with the eye injury and what's all happened. But Riley

760
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 2: Leonard maybe being a backup to Daniel Jones or Riley

761
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,800
Speaker 2: Leonard starting the season because Daniel Jones still could be

762
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 2: in rehab, could be an option for Indianapolis in twenty

763
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 2: twenty six.

764
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 3: He's gonna make it interesting now, Dan, like you know,

765
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,320
Speaker 3: we've seen a little bit of Anthony Richardson and he

766
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,760
Speaker 3: never looked like that in any game he played.

767
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 2: No, he's carry roads. I'm Dan Byer. Manti millenials will

768
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,799
Speaker 2: be with us in just a bit now with our

769
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,839
Speaker 2: fantasy numbers. But I'll look at who clinched what when

770
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 2: it came to stat wise in the NFL the season

771
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 2: she mentioned Miles Garrett sets the NFL set record. But yeah,

772
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 2: who's gonna lead the NFL in passing? Who's gonna lead

773
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,240
Speaker 2: them in rushing? She'll have some of those numbers coming

774
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 2: up next. Plus we'll get Kerrie's thoughts on sack number

775
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 2: twenty three for Miles Garrett. It is end Zone Radio

776
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:47,720

Speaker 1: Stafford and missing.

802
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, guys, things are interesting.

803
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 11: When I started looking at these numbers, I thought it

804
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 11: was pretty kind of clear who was gonna, you know,

805
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 11: end at the top.

806
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 10: And that's not the case.

807
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 11: So before these games started that we're keeping an eye on.

808
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,919
Speaker 11: Dak Prescott had the most passing yards with four five

809
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,400
Speaker 11: hundred and fifty two that is adding the seventy he

810
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 11: got today, and he.

811
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 10: Was pulled right.

812
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 11: Matthew Stafford before he started needed one hundred and four

813
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 11: yards to match him. Jared Goff needed two hundred and

814
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 11: forty nine yards to match him.

815
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 10: Well, they're both at halftime.

816
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 11: Matthew Stafford has already one hundred and thirty seven, so

817
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 11: Matthew Stafford has jumped Dak Prescott.

818
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,880
Speaker 10: Jared Goff already has two hundred and five yards.

819
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 1: Wow.

820
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 11: So yeah, So Dak Prescott is no longer at the

821
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,919
Speaker 11: top right now. It's Matthew Stafford and Jared off can

822
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 11: reach him. So we'll see how it goes. Passing touchdowns,

823
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:08,320
Speaker 11: Matthew Stafford forty two, already has forty three just passing,

824
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 11: not total touchdowns, just passing. Matthew Stafford probably gonna win it.

825
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 11: Jared Goff is the next closest with thirty three. Now

826
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 11: I will mention that both Trevor Lawrence total yards I

827
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 11: think is at thirty nine, Josh Allen total yards, thirty.

828
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 2: Eight, touchdown, touch down total like.

829
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 11: Rushing and yeah, but for passing, Matthew Stafford right rushing yards.

830
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 11: Rushing yards James Cook has sixteen hundred and six Dereck

831
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 11: Henry needs one hundred and thirty seven yards tonight.

832
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,760
Speaker 10: He's one hundred and thirty seven yards tonight.

833
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 2: Agay, they can't be worried about that though they can't.

834
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 10: They can't. No, there should be talking to him about that.

835
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 11: Rushing touchdowns, Jonathan Taylor has eighteen.

836
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 10: Dereck Henry entering tonight has sixteen, so he needs two

837
00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 10: or three.

838
00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 2: He would win both. It would have to be one

839
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,720
Speaker 2: of the most quiet. Yes, because we're head over heels

840
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 2: for Jonathan Taylor in the first half of the season.

841
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:05,359
Speaker 13: Yep.

842
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 2: We've We've talked about James Cook and what we love

843
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 2: from him, but Henry has been that crazy. The four

844
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 2: touchdown game against Green Bay s your health.

845
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 10: Yes, absolutely.

846
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 11: When it comes to the receptions coming into these games,

847
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 11: Trey McBride and Pokin A Coua.

848
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 10: They're playing against each other essentially, you know, the.

849
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 12: Teams McBride one hundred and nineteen receptions at the half,

850
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 12: Trey McBride has added McBride has added three, Poka has

851
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 12: added six at the half.

852
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 11: So right now pok is in the in the lead

853
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,840
Speaker 11: for receptions. When it comes to receiving yards, Jackson Smith

854
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 11: and Jigba seventeen hundred and ninety three. Pokin Akua needed

855
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,880
Speaker 11: needs one hundred and fifty four yards today to catch up,

856
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 11: and he only has thirty eight receiving yards at the half.

857
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 3: Pookinakuak ten, I think it's safe to say he may not.

858
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 11: He probably right, right, right right, but those are the

859
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 11: numbers looking at the stats for the.

860
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 2: Final, right, Thank you very much. Yeah, leisure, I love

861
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 2: to know who in rushing Crown and sacked totally the

862
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:03,359
Speaker 2: whole deal.

863
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, mc trade mcbrie might might win that one though,

864
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 3: because I think I think uh puk was gonna come

865
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 3: out probably at halftime and Trey gery a little bit longer.

866
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think maybe maybe we shall see. We'll let

867
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 2: you know if it happens. He is carry roads. I'm

Speaker 2: But was it worth it? That's next.

873
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,320
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

874
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 2: Not only do we have our eye on the scores,

875
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 2: but also the standings as a lot could change in

876
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 2: who plays who next week in the NFL Wild Card weekend.

877
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,399
Speaker 2: Welcome in. He is Carrie Roads. Find him on ex

878
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 2: at Carrie twenty five Roads. You can find me at

879
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,319
Speaker 2: Dan Byer on Fox. Miles Garrett made history today. Talk

880
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 2: to former defensive pro Carry Rhoads and ask him his

881
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 2: thoughts on that record and how it went down. Do

882
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 2: you want to point out with the Lions winning, as

883
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 2: Monty told you right now, over the Bears commanders have

884
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 2: a lead over the Eagles, that would keep everything frozen

885
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,799
Speaker 2: in the NFC. When it comes to the second and

886
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:20,400
Speaker 2: third seeds, Detroit would remain the second seed. Excuse me,

887
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 2: Chicago would remain the second seed, and Philadelphia would remain

888
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 2: the third seed. However, if the Eagles were to come

889
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 2: back and beat the Commanders, Philly jumps up to a

890
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 2: two seed, and all week long we knew green Bay

891
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 2: was locked into the seventh spot. I think that there

892
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,120
Speaker 2: was a sense that the Bears didn't necessarily want to

893
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 2: play green Bay because of a division opponent, which makes sense.

894
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 2: You're also fresh off of a game a couple of

895
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 2: weeks ago where green Bay didn't even have Jordan Love

896
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 2: and we're able to almost knock off the Bears an

897
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:56,720
Speaker 2: onside kick, a recovery, and then some late game heroics

898
00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 2: from Chicago allowed them to prevail. But as it stands

899
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 2: right now, Bears and Eagles losing, that would set up

900
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,239
Speaker 2: a Chicago Green Bay game. The problem I think with

901
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 2: the Bears is is, for as much as they may

902
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 2: not want to play green Bay, the alternative is San

903
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 2: Francisco or the Rams coming to town next week.

904
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, here's your consolation prize to winning for being in

905
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 3: the top two. You get one of those teams. And

906
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,319
Speaker 3: so it's gonna be hard, And we talked about it

907
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,800
Speaker 3: in the beginning of the show. Right you're trying to

908
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 3: jockey for position, but I just don't think that really matters.

909
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 3: You just got to be playing your best football at

910
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 3: this time, and whoever comes your way you gotta be

911
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 3: ready for because all these teams that are that are

912
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 3: going to be in the playoffs sands. In my opinion,

913
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 3: Carolina has a chance to win, and so you know,

914
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 3: just play your best football, don't worry about the opponent.

915
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 3: That's always I think, for the most part, the internal

916
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:51,400
Speaker 3: discussions are, we gotta be playing our basketball.

917
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 2: We can't worry about who we're playing.

918
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 3: And obviously, if you see somebody that's limping into the playoffs,

919
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:58,920
Speaker 3: you may want to play that team, but you can't

920
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 3: really try to foot that situation.

921
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 2: I think that's why you see some of the teams

922
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 2: making the decisions that they had today, and the Chargers

923
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:09,360
Speaker 2: are the perfect example. They knew the Texans won, but

924
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 2: they had their plans set up even before Houston won.

925
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 2: And Houston's eight point win wasn't an eight point win

926
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:16,840
Speaker 2: with about a minute to go.

927
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 9: It was.

928
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 2: They needed a last second field goal and then got

929
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:21,920
Speaker 2: a defensive touchdown at the end to make it an

930
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,879
Speaker 2: eight point victory. But if the Colts win that game,

931
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 2: then the Chargers and Bills have an opportunity to move

932
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 2: up in seating and the Chargers just had already made

933
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 2: their decision that they weren't going to play Justin Herbert.

934
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,279
Speaker 2: He wasn't in Pads. I don't think the Bills had

935
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 2: any desire to play Justin Herbert outside of taking a

936
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 2: final snap at high Mark Stadium and continuing his consecutive

937
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 2: start streak. So those were what those teams deemed most important.

938
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 2: The funny thing with the Bears and the Eagles if

939
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 2: they aren't able to pull out victories today, this again

940
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 2: just goes to the playoff structure where the Seahawks have

941
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 2: a fourteen and three record and the number one overall seed,

942
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 2: and you could have the Rams and forty nine ers

943
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 2: be twelve and five and have better records than both

944
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 2: the second and third seeds and do not get the advantages.

945
00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 2: I mean, I railed on the Carolina getting a home game,

946
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 2: which is something that we've so many of us have

947
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 2: talked about that eight to nine team back in the day,

948
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 2: the eight and eight to seven and nine team winning

949
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:24,320
Speaker 2: a division. You had a three way tie atop the

950
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 2: NFC South, and it's just home field advantage for them

951
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 2: is ridiculous. What is also ridiculous is just the lack

952
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 2: of advantages that these two twelve and five teams would get.

953
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 2: And they went twelve and five, and they're in that

954
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 2: position because of their tough division. Yes, because you've got

955
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,719
Speaker 2: the Seahawks and you've got the forty nine ers. You're

956
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 2: also playing those teams and that's not taken into account.

957
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,880
Speaker 2: So the Bears and Eagles could have worse records than

958
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 2: both the Niners and Rams and are going to have

959
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 2: home games and higher seeds and that advantage because of it.

960
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 2: I just don't think that's fair.

961
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:57,320
Speaker 3: I mean it's in saying, Dan, you think about what

962
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 3: those the record of the NF see West is outside

963
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,400
Speaker 3: of outside of the Cardinals, Right, those three teams you

964
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:07,320
Speaker 3: just named combined only lost thirteen games.

965
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, like that's that's insane.

966
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 3: And so the level of football being played played out

967
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 3: West in FC NFC has been remarkable obviously, and all

968
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 3: through of those teams have a chance to win. But

969
00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:21,600
Speaker 3: then you you just said, you couple that with you know,

970
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 3: the Bears and even the Eagles if they win the divisions,

971
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 3: both of them playing in divisions that have been worse

972
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 3: than I think that we would have thought, especially the

973
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 3: NFC with the North the North, Yes, with with the

974
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 3: Vikings not being as good as they were, and even

975
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 3: the Packers, right we thought they were the best team

976
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 3: in football early on in the year, and right now

977
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 3: they're kind of limping in.

978
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 2: So it's it's it's gonna be interesting. The funny thing

979
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 2: with the NFC West as well, is when you looked

980
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 2: at the NFC West schedule at the beginning of the year,

981
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 2: their cross conference opponent was the AFC South. Yeah, well,

982
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 2: the AFC South's pretty good. So when you have the

983
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,839
Speaker 2: games Againstjacksonville, when you have the games against Houston and

984
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:07,960
Speaker 2: for a while Indianapolis, like, those are good games. The

985
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 2: interconference division that is opponent of the NFC West this year,

986
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 2: this is this is the this is the cherry on

987
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 2: top was the NFC South. So the NFC West played

988
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 2: the NFC South and likely dominated those matchups. Right Seattle,

989
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,399
Speaker 2: I know, Seattle lost to Tampa Bay, but Tampa Bay

990
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 2: got crushed by the Rams. On Sunday night football, Seattle

991
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:37,839
Speaker 2: went to Carolina beat the Panthers. Seattle beat Atlanta, so

992
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:41,360
Speaker 2: like they beat New Orleans. When you're looking at like

993
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:44,400
Speaker 2: the cross and here the cross division matchups between the

994
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 2: two Rams did lose to to uh, Carolina, I'm aware

995
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 2: of that. But the NFC South again gets the advantage

996
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 2: in a lot of those losses were to NFC West teams. Yes,

997
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 2: which again is just my whole problem with the w system.

998
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:02,439
Speaker 2: But I'm not gonna I'm not gonna take the whole

999
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 2: show and complain about it. Just pockets here and there.

1000
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,719
Speaker 2: And it looks like the Cardinals have gotten into the

1001
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,759
Speaker 2: end zone as well. Michael Wilson, so that could make

1002
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 2: things interesting for the forty nine Ers and Rams. Now

1003
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:18,279
Speaker 2: a three point game as the Rams continue to lead Arizona,

1004
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 2: while the Lions had that thirteen nothing lead on Chicago

1005
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 2: and the Eagles still trailed Commanders by a score of

1006
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 2: ten to seven.

1007
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,479
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's a lot going on. And we haven't

1008
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 3: talked about the Chiefs and the Raiders at all, so

1009
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,879
Speaker 3: so you know that game is you I just looked

1010
00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 3: at it out of the corner of my eye, Dan,

1011
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:36,840
Speaker 3: I was like, what is that score? Because I haven't

1012
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,359
Speaker 3: heard anything about them at all?

1013
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:41,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, what about I was gonna say that game

1014
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:46,839
Speaker 2: actually is just blurred because of the grotesque nature of it.

1015
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 2: It's just a big blur. They don't want you to that.

1016
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 2: I want you to see the graphic nature good of Raiders.

1017
00:47:53,760 --> 00:48:00,760
Speaker 2: Chiefs Oladocin is eleven of seventeen, Chris Oladocan is eleven seventeen,

1018
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 2: four fifty eight yards, and Aidan O'Connell three of eight

1019
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,200
Speaker 2: for forty yards, replacing Kenny Pickett who has won for

1020
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:10,880
Speaker 2: four for three yards in an interception. Lots of Ashton

1021
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:14,920
Speaker 2: genty today for the Raiders, which again is against a

1022
00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:17,279
Speaker 2: lot of the stuff that they One of the criticisms

1023
00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 2: of Pete Carroll, who I think is coaching his last

1024
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 2: game as an NFL head coach today, was that their

1025
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 2: lack of usage for the rookies for a team Carrie

1026
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 2: that had a lot of young guys that should be

1027
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,560
Speaker 2: seeing minutes because they weren't ready to win. Now, Pete

1028
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:39,319
Speaker 2: Carroll is always in the compete mode, and so the

1029
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 2: guys who compete, the guys who play better are getting

1030
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 2: the snaps, and the Raiders were way down on the

1031
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 2: list for the number of rookie snaps that they have

1032
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 2: this year, which is counterproductive to I think what you're

1033
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 2: trying to build if you're the Raiders. One hundred percent.

1034
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we both agreed on that higher not

1035
00:48:55,600 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 3: really having any real I don't know, real like constant consequential.

1036
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,400
Speaker 2: I don't know. It didn't make any sense to me.

1037
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 3: Dan when they hired him, I knew that obviously they

1038
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 3: wanted it seems like they wanted the transition year to

1039
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 3: you know, new ownership, you know, new people in the building,

1040
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 3: somebody that can keep it stable. But if that's your plan,

1041
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 3: then the stuff that we heard about them not playing

1042
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,719
Speaker 3: younger guys, it just doesn't The mix wasn't good at

1043
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 3: all funny beginning.

1044
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:27,200
Speaker 2: Do you think Tom Brady was ever a guy who

1045
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,960
Speaker 2: would throw away games or would throw away a season. No,

1046
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:33,320
Speaker 2: And I know that his stake in the team is limited,

1047
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,800
Speaker 2: but it does feel that he has quite a say

1048
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 2: Pete Carroll, it's actually the problem in Seattle. They just

1049
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 2: they couldn't hit rock bottom because they're always always trying

1050
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 2: to compete, feeling like they had to be right there.

1051
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 2: And after a while it just got really boring and

1052
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 2: it just was not exciting. And it was the same

1053
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 2: old thing. You weren't better than the best teams, and

1054
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 2: while you were better than some, it wasn't good enough,

1055
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 2: and it wasn't good football. There was nobody there that

1056
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 2: in the building. I think that have the essence of saying,

1057
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 2: all right, while the Chiefs maybe on their last leg,

1058
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 2: Denver seems to be on the rise, and the Chargers

1059
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 2: are in it, why don't we sit back and build

1060
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,240
Speaker 2: and then three or four years maybe when those teams

1061
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 2: are on the way down, then we'll be ascending and

1062
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 2: pass them that. It was a wasted year for the Raiders.

1063
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:21,960
Speaker 2: So now they have the number one overall pick. It's

1064
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 2: a waste of year.

1065
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 3: And the crazy part about it, Dan with it being

1066
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:28,279
Speaker 3: a wasted year, if they get the right coach in there,

1067
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 3: they have the building blocks. They have a stud running

1068
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,759
Speaker 3: back that's a rookie. You got a stud tight end

1069
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 3: who's in his second year. If you get a quarterback

1070
00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:40,760
Speaker 3: to shore up that that little that little line between

1071
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:42,719
Speaker 3: you know, from the center to the quarterback, from the

1072
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 3: running back to the tight end. I mean, they're not

1073
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 3: far off from being competitive now. It's not about when

1074
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:51,560
Speaker 3: any division or doing anything great yet. But I'm saying, like,

1075
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 3: if you're going to bring in a young coach that

1076
00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 3: can come in and with those three pieces, because they're

1077
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:57,840
Speaker 3: gonna get number one pick, and right now it seems

1078
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:01,239
Speaker 3: like that may may be Mendoza, you bring in Man

1079
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 3: into that mix, and then you know, under Tom Brady's

1080
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:05,239
Speaker 3: too listening, you have a little something there.

1081
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 2: It's funny because I actually think the opposite you do.

1082
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 2: I think the opposite. I think everything that tells you

1083
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 2: what's wrong with the Raiders tells you where their best

1084
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:16,239
Speaker 2: players are outside of Max Crosby, because they there was

1085
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:19,880
Speaker 2: no reason for them to draft Ashton Genty. Their offensive

1086
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:23,319
Speaker 2: line was banged up with injuries this year. But I

1087
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,240
Speaker 2: don't think they were at the point to have Brock Bauers,

1088
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,359
Speaker 2: who fell to them best player in the draft. Yeah,

1089
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 2: I don't blame them for making that pick. But also

1090
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 2: then they're just they're not good up front. They haven't

1091
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,879
Speaker 2: been on both sides of the ball, and aside from

1092
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,400
Speaker 2: maybe Max Crosby, beginning after it. So I think that

1093
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 2: to me represents some of the problems with the Raiders,

1094
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,799
Speaker 2: is that they have pieces in certain spots that just

1095
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 2: don't translate to winning. Yeah.

1096
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 3: No, no, I mean, and you hit it on the head.

1097
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,240
Speaker 3: I mean that would be the reason why they're not winning.

1098
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 3: If they're not good upfront on both sides of the ball,

1099
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,480
Speaker 3: you're not gonna win the NFL so that's that's number one.

1100
00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:01,840
Speaker 3: But then you can't for taking the bron Bauers obviously

1101
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:04,400
Speaker 3: say he's the best player and that was left at

1102
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:06,840
Speaker 3: that position. So you take that guy, you take a

1103
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,000
Speaker 3: guy as a difference maker. But again you talked about

1104
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,160
Speaker 3: Max Crosby right that those canna be a couple of

1105
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 3: picks or some things that can happen for you as well.

1106
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 3: So if they're going young and getting you know, Sutter players,

1107
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 3: I think they could be you know, right back in

1108
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 3: the mix with UH, with the with the good, with

1109
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 3: the right higher.

1110
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 2: The Bills have a third and goal right now, up

1111
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 2: twenty one to nothing on the Jets. Now this game

1112
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:32,360
Speaker 2: kind of goes along in concert with what's happening between

1113
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 2: the Broncos and Chargers, because that's where you could have

1114
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:38,280
Speaker 2: the change of the guard in terms of the AFC

1115
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 2: and the Bills have they they did not score, so

1116
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 2: it's going to be a fourth downing goal, I believe

1117
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 2: for Buffalo. As Mitchell Trubisky was looking in the back

1118
00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:52,920
Speaker 2: of the end zone, the pass for UH, I think

1119
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:56,759
Speaker 2: Josh Palmer ends up falling incomplete. So it's still twenty

1120
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 2: one nothing, but the Chargers trail the Broncos right now,

1121
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 2: ten nothing just underway in the second half, and it's

1122
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 2: the Chargers and Bills that could switch spots where Buffalo

1123
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 2: with a win would move up to the sixth spot

1124
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:11,919
Speaker 2: in the AFC, while the Chargers with the loss would

1125
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 2: fall to seven. We don't know who the opponents are,

1126
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 2: but you could see his situation if Denver, if the

1127
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:22,480
Speaker 2: Chargers end up losing the game and the Patriots continue

1128
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:26,840
Speaker 2: to win, you would have a Chargers Patriots game for

1129
00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:31,759
Speaker 2: a wild card weekend in weeks next weekend, and I

1130
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,279
Speaker 2: would and the Bills would be in Jacksonville, and I

1131
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:35,680
Speaker 2: would pick the Chargers to win that game.

1132
00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:42,600
Speaker 3: Would I would? I like that. I'm serious. It fits

1133
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:47,360
Speaker 3: the Chargers like that area Northeast. It's gonna be cold,

1134
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 3: make it a little snow or win I would take.

1135
00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 3: I would take Dustin Hurban and I would take that

1136
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 3: running game and their physical style of play against the Patriots.

1137
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:59,080
Speaker 2: The Eagles are driving midway through the third quarter, they're

1138
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,720
Speaker 2: up on or they're down of the Commanders ten to seven,

1139
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,680
Speaker 2: but Philadelphia's got a first and ten from the eighteen

1140
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:07,719
Speaker 2: yard line. Been a lot of tank Bigsby today, and

1141
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:10,880
Speaker 2: Bigsby's got to run down to about the eleven yard line.

1142
00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 2: The Bears have trailed the Lions right now thirteen to nothing,

1143
00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:19,440
Speaker 2: and it's the Lions having the football in Chicago territory

1144
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 2: at the thirty four yard line with a first and

1145
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 2: ten and there's five forty left to go in the

1146
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:30,279
Speaker 2: third quarter. So here the Lions playing spoiler. They did

1147
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:32,120
Speaker 2: this to Green Bay a couple of years ago and

1148
00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:35,279
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers last game at lambeau Field. And while the

1149
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:38,280
Speaker 2: Bears have already locked up the division, they could change

1150
00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:40,839
Speaker 2: their seating and again they could drop down depending on

1151
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:42,920
Speaker 2: what Philadelphia does now that they're in a first and

1152
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 2: goal situation, well.

1153
00:54:44,040 --> 00:54:45,799
Speaker 3: One hundred percent, the Lions don't want to have a

1154
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 3: losing record this year, so they're going to come out

1155
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:50,239
Speaker 3: and give everything they can to win this one Dan,

1156
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:52,399
Speaker 3: and you just talked about it.

1157
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:53,920
Speaker 2: We've seen evidence of this.

1158
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:58,040
Speaker 3: They play that last game like it matters under Dan Campbell,

1159
00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:00,960
Speaker 3: and they spoiled Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay season one year.

1160
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously they can't spoil their season here, but

1161
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,359
Speaker 3: they can. They can knock them out of that second

1162
00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,399
Speaker 3: position to drop down and have to play a tough

1163
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:09,960
Speaker 3: for you know, quote unquote tough for opponent.

1164
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lions could have first down all the way down

1165
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 2: to the twenty yard line, so they'll be in the

1166
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:16,759
Speaker 2: Bear's red zone here again, up thirteen to nothing, while

1167
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 2: it's now a second and goal situation for the Eagles

1168
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:22,440
Speaker 2: inside the ten yard line as they trail the Commanders

1169
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:24,319
Speaker 2: by a score of ten to seven. By the way,

1170
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 2: you may see this in some of the clips on

1171
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 2: social media. We've got our helmet slid out, got the

1172
00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:33,520
Speaker 2: new Eagles, the throwback Eagles, newer helmet. I have an

1173
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 2: old Eagles one like that, but the newer version brought that.

1174
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 9: I don't know.

1175
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:38,880
Speaker 2: With the Bills, we're in the Red Ones. We brought

1176
00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 2: the Red Ones out, matching your helmets that you wore

1177
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 2: with the New York Jets, right, I said, just bought

1178
00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:44,520
Speaker 2: the real one.

1179
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:46,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I could have brought the big one Dan and

1180
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,640
Speaker 3: the vintage O's O what could have been.

1181
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:54,000
Speaker 2: What could have been David Montgomery's carried the ball down

1182
00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:55,680
Speaker 2: to the ten yard line for the Lions. So they

1183
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,239
Speaker 2: are knocking on the door. Chargers are punting back to

1184
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 2: the Broncos. Denver is going to be set up up

1185
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 2: around near midfield. Actually, the punt takes a Chargers bounce

1186
00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 2: and Denver sets up first and ten at their own

1187
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,319
Speaker 2: forty yard line, while the Eagles face a third in

1188
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,680
Speaker 2: goal against the Commanders in a ten to seven ball game.

1189
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,600
Speaker 2: We told you the Cardinals got a little bit closer

1190
00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:16,480
Speaker 2: to the Rams at sixteen to thirteen, and now Arizona

1191
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:20,880
Speaker 2: has taken over possession of the football. Down by three,

1192
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,760
Speaker 2: Patriots just getting into the end zone. Romandre Stevenson a reception,

1193
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 2: extending their lead against the Dolphins by a score off

1194
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:32,840
Speaker 2: twenty three to ten, and the game that should be

1195
00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 2: blurred out for everyone's eyes, Raiders lead the Chiefs by

1196
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:39,879
Speaker 2: score of six to three in the third quarter extra point.

1197
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,000
Speaker 2: By the way, New England was good. So now it's

1198
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 2: a twenty four to ten ball game.

1199
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:45,759
Speaker 3: I think I just saw a student body left, so

1200
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 3: you know that game is not watch.

1201
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:52,799
Speaker 2: Adam Kaplan's our NFL Insider. Tomorrow's Black Monday. When it

1202
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:55,840
Speaker 2: comes to NFL head coaches, Aaron Glenn is apparently safe

1203
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,359
Speaker 2: with the Jets. Who could be on the hot seat.

1204
00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:01,240
Speaker 2: We'll ask that question in so much more. He's carry roads.

1205
00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:04,080
Speaker 2: I'm Dan Beyer. It's next year on End Zone Radio.

1210
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:20,760
Speaker 2: End Zone radio on Fox Sports Radio. The Cardinals have

1211
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:25,680
Speaker 2: just gotten into the end zone. Jacoby Brissetta touchdown pass.

1212
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:29,080
Speaker 2: It's twenty to sixteen Cardinals on top of the Rams,

1213
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:31,960
Speaker 2: three point fifty one left to go in the third quarter.

1214
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:34,520
Speaker 2: If the Rams lose this, the Niners are the five

1215
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:37,440
Speaker 2: seed and the Rams are the sixth seed in the NFC.

1216
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:39,920
Speaker 2: The Lions kicked a field goal and their drive against

1217
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:43,360
Speaker 2: the Bears at sixteen to nothing in that contest, so

1218
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:46,680
Speaker 2: Detroit could be knocking Chicago out of the two spot,

1219
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:49,120
Speaker 2: and right now that would be the case because Tank

1220
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,320
Speaker 2: Bigsby got into the end zone for the Eagles. Extra

1221
00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 2: point was good. It's fourteen to ten Philadelphia on top

1222
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 2: of the Commanders. We mentioned the Patriots scoring and their

1223
00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:00,400
Speaker 2: extra point was good. They're up on the Dolphin twenty

1224
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,520
Speaker 2: four to ten. But the Patriots right now not likely

1225
00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:06,480
Speaker 2: to grab the number one overall seed because Denver has

1226
00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 2: a thirteen to three lead on the Chargers in the

1227
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:14,400
Speaker 2: third quarter and Buffalo went for two, and yes, extended

1228
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,919
Speaker 2: the lead over the Jets twenty nine to nothing, while

1229
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,240
Speaker 2: the Charger or excuse me, while the Chiefs and Raiders

1230
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:20,280
Speaker 2: are tied up at six.

1231
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:24,360
Speaker 3: You couldn't even say cheeks. He says. It's a lot

1232
00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:26,680
Speaker 3: going on, Carrie, a lot going on. Let me Adam

1233
00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:31,920
Speaker 3: Kaplan joins us here on Fox Sports Radio. Happy belated birthday, Adam.

1234
00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:33,840
Speaker 3: How are you appreciating kat I'm good to talk to you.

1235
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 2: I know you got some Eagles to watch, so we'll

1236
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 2: try to make this quick. But the Colts just got

1237
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:42,720
Speaker 2: some word in that everybody's staying in Indianapolis. No changes

1238
00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:47,080
Speaker 2: with Shane Steichen and Chris Ballard despite the collapse at

1239
00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,760
Speaker 2: the end of the season. Is this any surprise that

1240
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 2: both are staying for next time?

1241
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,080
Speaker 14: No, Sike, And I mean I could tell you the

1242
00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 14: coaches were operating as they were coming back. Now Ballard

1243
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,240
Speaker 14: coming back, I thought he would come back, didn't know

1244
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:02,120
Speaker 14: for sure, and ownership maybe that decision. I know ESPN

1245
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:04,920
Speaker 14: put that report out, so no, but you know I've

1246
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:07,760
Speaker 14: done you know, I do television today. I kind of explained,

1247
00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 14: gave background and on some stuff you probably won't hear

1248
00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:10,840
Speaker 14: anywhere else.

1249
00:59:11,400 --> 00:59:12,919
Speaker 9: On why certain coaches are going to come back.

1250
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:15,960
Speaker 14: As I've told people or Jets fans for weeks, so

1251
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:17,320
Speaker 14: I said, I'm telling you he's probably gonna come.

1252
00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 9: Back, Aaron Glenn.

1253
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:24,160
Speaker 14: Yeah, but man, today it's just an abomination. Look, their

1254
00:59:24,240 --> 00:59:26,520
Speaker 14: defense is so bad. I know they're down so many players.

1255
00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:30,200
Speaker 14: I get that, but man, it's just you have to

1256
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:33,080
Speaker 14: look at the Jets and you say, man, thank goodness,

1257
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 14: they've got a They have more draft cap on the

1258
00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:37,680
Speaker 14: first and second round more than any other team for

1259
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:38,600
Speaker 14: the next couple of years.

1260
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:38,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1261
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,560
Speaker 3: No, they're They're in dire straits out there for sure.

1262
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,960
Speaker 3: But I'm going to talk about Miles Garrett today. I mean,

1263
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 3: obviously broke broke the single season record, very important, but

1264
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 3: we were talking about me and Dan on air. Just

1265
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:54,080
Speaker 3: like having these stats and sometimes they're empty. This one isn't.

1266
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 3: I'm not saying it's empty, but they having those stats

1267
00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 3: and the impact on winning, Like where where do you

1268
00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,040
Speaker 3: draw where do you draw the line or the I

1269
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,880
Speaker 3: guess the where you can tie it all together and

1270
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:06,480
Speaker 3: go to a successful situation.

1271
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 9: You know, here's the thing, Kry. It's a fair point

1272
01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:09,560
Speaker 9: because I got to vote.

1273
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:13,480
Speaker 14: I got to vote for two awards here and the

1274
01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:15,960
Speaker 14: big ones prof Parer Association. And you know, to me,

1275
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,080
Speaker 14: when you look at Miles Garrett and I saw us

1276
01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 14: to training camp, I don't know if I told you

1277
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:23,160
Speaker 14: the story, like you're going to training camp. For over

1278
01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:26,960
Speaker 14: twenty years, the most single dominant defensive performance I've ever

1279
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 14: seen was Miles Garrett aginst Egle's first team offensive line. Yeah,

1280
01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,360
Speaker 14: he was actually laughing at that. They couldn't stop him.

1281
01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:35,479
Speaker 14: It was crazy. He's Defensive Player of the Year again.

1282
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:39,200
Speaker 14: He just has to be Look, here's what I do.

1283
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:42,280
Speaker 14: Like Kerry as an ex player, you could relate to this.

1284
01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:44,520
Speaker 14: No matter how bad they are, he continues to give

1285
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:45,400
Speaker 14: maximum effort.

1286
01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:47,760
Speaker 9: It shows a leadership quality that.

1287
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:49,920
Speaker 14: I'm very big one because you know, the knock on him,

1288
01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 14: believe or not, was how much he loved the game.

1289
01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:54,560
Speaker 9: Really yeah, that was a big knock on him.

1290
01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:56,439
Speaker 14: I remember actually running into his agent at the time

1291
01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,400
Speaker 14: and we were talking and in which exchanging notes. I said, hey, man,

1292
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:02,240
Speaker 14: he's probably go to number one, But I mean, there's

1293
01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:05,680
Speaker 14: just some questions about his desire and obviously he answered

1294
01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 14: them because he's dominant. He'll be a first ballot Hall

1295
01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:09,640
Speaker 14: of Famer one of the best ed rushers are now

1296
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:10,360
Speaker 14: in NFL history.

1297
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:11,240
Speaker 9: He's just a great player.

1298
01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 14: Now, it's just a shame that they've they've botched the

1299
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:18,160
Speaker 14: quarterback position because he he did he did the extension,

1300
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 14: but he also thought they'd have a better chance to win.

1301
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:23,240
Speaker 2: Annam Gablin joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. Here

1302
01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:25,320
Speaker 2: I'm on the Inside of the Birds podcast. He's our

1303
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,760
Speaker 2: NFL insider. Also on supports grid is where you can

1304
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,160
Speaker 2: see him find him on x at Kaplan NFL. Kerry

1305
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:34,560
Speaker 2: and I were just talking about the Raiders in their

1306
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:36,480
Speaker 2: future where it seems like he don't laut.

1307
01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:39,200
Speaker 9: I'm just yeah, it's just yeah, go ahead.

1308
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 2: It seems like it's one and done. But they did

1309
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 2: conch the number one overall pick today, could be a quarterback,

1310
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:49,520
Speaker 2: could be yes? How about that? How how do the

1311
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:52,880
Speaker 2: Raiders proceed this offseason, not only with their coach, but

1312
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:54,880
Speaker 2: then in trying to rebuild this roster?

1313
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 14: All right, it's a sellable job. Yes, what's wildly expected

1314
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 14: that Carol be replaced? And you just just a little

1315
01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,160
Speaker 14: cliff notes version of this situation. So a month ago,

1316
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:10,200
Speaker 14: Mark Davis, Tom Brady, others who are involved with this decision,

1317
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:12,640
Speaker 14: they just want to see how the team closed can

1318
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 14: peek at things rolling.

1319
01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:15,480
Speaker 9: But he couldn't.

1320
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:17,960
Speaker 14: And you know he ready had fired his offense coordinator,

1321
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 14: Tip Kelly. What an awful hire that turned out to be.

1322
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:21,880
Speaker 14: It just didn't work for Chip. He's not a pro coach.

1323
01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:22,120
Speaker 1: No.

1324
01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:25,120
Speaker 14: One of the highest paid offense cordinator's NFL history, doesn't

1325
01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:28,840
Speaker 14: even get to finish the season. Fire the special teams coach.

1326
01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:32,240
Speaker 14: It's just embarrassing. And you know they gave him everything

1327
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:34,320
Speaker 14: you wanted, got him Gino Smith that didn't work out,

1328
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:40,600
Speaker 14: got him other things like gent he wanted a power

1329
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:43,080
Speaker 14: back over Hampton. I thought it was a dubious decision.

1330
01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:45,720
Speaker 14: I know it wasn't popular. I know a lot of

1331
01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 14: fans love Genty, but they his his Russian style is

1332
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:49,880
Speaker 14: not great for the National Football League.

1333
01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:51,040
Speaker 9: So yeah, they.

1334
01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 14: Also have to make better personnel decisions. But yeah, here's

1335
01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:59,480
Speaker 14: the thing though. Now, if the IU quarterback is the

1336
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:01,840
Speaker 14: kid that everyone thinks will go number one, that's great,

1337
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,760
Speaker 14: but we haven't gotten there yet. We have to also

1338
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:08,880
Speaker 14: see who who declares. But yeah, Mendoza should be the

1339
01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:12,520
Speaker 14: first pick overall, and that that's got tremendous fact because

1340
01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:15,000
Speaker 14: I'll tell you what, talk into some coaching agents the

1341
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:18,360
Speaker 14: last week or so that Giant's job is very, very

1342
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:21,520
Speaker 14: desirable right now because of the quarterback.

1343
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:22,720
Speaker 9: And they got a lot of talent on defense.

1344
01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:23,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1345
01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,920
Speaker 3: No, I mean, it's so many decisions that are going

1346
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,520
Speaker 3: to have to be made obviously in you know, the

1347
01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:31,240
Speaker 3: next few days and months in the NFL season. But

1348
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:33,840
Speaker 3: I just kind of want to talk about Jacksonville on

1349
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:36,120
Speaker 3: your way out here a little bit. Obviously got hot

1350
01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 3: as the season went on. Trevor Lawrence looks like the

1351
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:40,720
Speaker 3: guy that everybody expected him to be when he first

1352
01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:43,200
Speaker 3: came into the league at this point. Now, and let's

1353
01:03:43,200 --> 01:03:46,040
Speaker 3: talk about that turnaround Liam Coint Liam Cohen had with

1354
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:46,560
Speaker 3: that team.

1355
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:48,800
Speaker 14: Yeah, and Liam Cohen was a guy that you know,

1356
01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:52,720
Speaker 14: he's this from the McVeigh tree, but we weren't really

1357
01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:55,200
Speaker 14: sure about leadership qualities and all that. And he came

1358
01:03:55,240 --> 01:04:00,000
Speaker 14: in with a plan to fix and correct Trevor Lawrence

1359
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 14: anti and he's done that. Although you know that didn't

1360
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,640
Speaker 14: get off to a great start, but really turned things around.

1361
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:07,160
Speaker 14: And this is the Trevor Lawrence that I think the

1362
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:09,640
Speaker 14: Joggers would tell you they thought they were drafting. Yeah, obviously,

1363
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:13,640
Speaker 14: another regime drafted him, but he looks really good. Great

1364
01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:15,920
Speaker 14: coaching and but I and this guy's going to get

1365
01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 14: head coaching interviews multiple Anthony Campanell later defense coordinator. He's

1366
01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,120
Speaker 14: done a phenomenal job with mostly the same players. And

1367
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:27,280
Speaker 14: by the way, a lot of teams I spoke with

1368
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,240
Speaker 14: last year thought Jacksonville's defense wasn't competitive. When you hear

1369
01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 14: that from other teams, you got to take note. And

1370
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 14: they've been I mean, lights out there. This is a

1371
01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,960
Speaker 14: great story. I mean, I know Jaguar fans went through

1372
01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:42,480
Speaker 14: this with Doug Peterson the first year after the from

1373
01:04:42,520 --> 01:04:46,479
Speaker 14: Meyer experience, but man, and remember they're doing this without

1374
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:47,040
Speaker 14: Travis Hunter.

1375
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:47,960
Speaker 9: It's pretty impressive.

1376
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:50,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I need another year of Trevor Lawrence for the

1377
01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:52,800
Speaker 2: Foundation to truly believe he is at the level that

1378
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:53,640
Speaker 2: he played this year.

1379
01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 9: I agree, totally.

1380
01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 2: Coaching matters, Yeah, yeah, absolutely does one quick final one.

1381
01:04:58,920 --> 01:05:03,640
Speaker 2: I know Eagles up four into Commander's territory as it's

1382
01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:05,920
Speaker 2: one of the games we're watching. But you mentioned the

1383
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:10,600
Speaker 2: Giants job being attractive. We've heard maybe Kevin Stefanski's name

1384
01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:13,560
Speaker 2: of is he going to stay in Cleveland? Would he

1385
01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 2: be a candidate with the Giants.

1386
01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:17,760
Speaker 9: Here's my report that I put out today on sports Grid.

1387
01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:21,200
Speaker 14: So I'm gonna say Tuesday, there were some rumors that

1388
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:23,520
Speaker 14: he might be on thin ice or you might not

1389
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:25,560
Speaker 14: come back. I'm like, this ridiculous because they don't have

1390
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 14: a quarterback. And then as I put out today, I

1391
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:31,040
Speaker 14: just don't think he has to support that a lot

1392
01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:34,840
Speaker 14: of us who covered the league thought he had. I'm

1393
01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:37,400
Speaker 14: not one hundred percent clarion why. I just got it

1394
01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:40,600
Speaker 14: from a very strong source. No, he's he just doesn't

1395
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:42,120
Speaker 14: have a support that he used to have. I'm not

1396
01:05:42,160 --> 01:05:45,280
Speaker 14: sure why Andrew Berry had his best draft of his career. Ye,

1397
01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:47,920
Speaker 14: He's not drafted very well until this year had a

1398
01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:50,200
Speaker 14: great draft, really did when of the best dress they've

1399
01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:53,680
Speaker 14: had him in many years. Andrew Berry should stay now

1400
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:55,919
Speaker 14: the Giants real quick. He was going to be Pat

1401
01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:59,720
Speaker 14: Shermer's offensive coordinator for the Giants and actually talked to

1402
01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 14: Kevin about that. He was blocked by the Vikings, which

1403
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,800
Speaker 14: they shouldn't have done. And you're Kevin's from Philly. His dad,

1404
01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:08,240
Speaker 14: at Stefanski was a former six Ers GM. It's been

1405
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:10,040
Speaker 14: a long time executive for the Pistons and part of

1406
01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:11,960
Speaker 14: their turnaround. By the way, most people don't know that

1407
01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 14: I don't. I don't know he's still there, but I

1408
01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:17,000
Speaker 14: know he helped in the hiring process for many years

1409
01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:20,080
Speaker 14: and so forth. But you know, overall, when you look

1410
01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:22,800
Speaker 14: at this situation with Stefansky, he's going to be a

1411
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,320
Speaker 14: demand because if you look at this list. I put

1412
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 14: this out two weeks ago, I was telling him the

1413
01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:28,560
Speaker 14: host of Sports because of guys, it's not a good

1414
01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 14: list for offensive head coach of candidates. It's actually one

1415
01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:34,440
Speaker 14: of the worst I've seen. I'm not criticizing anyone. Some

1416
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:37,520
Speaker 14: guys like Klint Kubiak's really smart. He's better interviewed very

1417
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:40,959
Speaker 14: well because he's done. The personality is questionable in terms

1418
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:43,880
Speaker 14: of command and all that. So what we'll talk more

1419
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:47,240
Speaker 14: about this next week, guys, But this hiring cycle is

1420
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:50,160
Speaker 14: fascinating because we'll just see who gets the jobs. But

1421
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:52,320
Speaker 14: I'm telling you the defensive group is way strong on

1422
01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:53,560
Speaker 14: the offensive group this time around.

1423
01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:54,400

01:07:13,080 --> 01:07:15,560
Speaker 2: has that and so much more of what's going on

1432

1433
01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:19,640
Speaker 2: What's going on? Manzi?

1434
01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:20,240
Speaker 10: That's right?

1435
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:23,280
Speaker 11: With that touchdown pass that Cayleb Williams just through, bringing

1436
01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:25,960
Speaker 11: his total on the season to three thousand, eight hundred

1437
01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:29,160
Speaker 11: and forty four, that is breaking a Chicago record. He

1438
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:32,880
Speaker 11: broke yes yards, sorry, Jesse touchdowns, So sorry, I'm in yards.

1439
01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:36,560
Speaker 10: Oh sorry, yeah, no, no, no, yeah yards. If I said.

1440
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 11: Suchdowns he broke damn it already left my screen. Eric Kramer, Yeah, okay, sure, okay, sure, yeah.

1441
01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:46,440
Speaker 11: That guy, he broke that record from years ago.

1442
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 10: I don't know.

1443
01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:49,720
Speaker 11: So that's what Kayleb Williams is doing, putting the Bears

1444
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:50,320
Speaker 11: on the scoreboard.

1445
01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:51,840
Speaker 10: I think they went for a two point conversion and

1446
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:52,560
Speaker 10: got it as well.

1447
01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:55,400
Speaker 11: The Lions are still up though, sixteen to eight, and

1448
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:56,920
Speaker 11: it's early in the fourth quarter.

1449
01:07:57,040 --> 01:07:57,280
Speaker 10: There.

1450
01:07:57,560 --> 01:08:01,160
Speaker 11: Let me just quadruple check. Yes, no interceptions yet from

1451
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:04,320
Speaker 11: the Jets. Okay, so that's that one. Bill's up twenty

1452
01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:07,480
Speaker 11: nine to zero. Late in the third quarter. There Broncos

1453
01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:10,680
Speaker 11: still lead the Chargers in Denver thirteen to three. The

1454
01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:13,360
Speaker 11: Chiefs have tied the game on the road against the

1455
01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:14,560
Speaker 11: Raiders at sixty six.

1456
01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 10: By the way, this is in the fourth quarter.

1457
01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:18,880
Speaker 11: Raiders do get the number one pick in the upcoming

1458
01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:23,040
Speaker 11: draft because earlier today the Giants beat the Cowboys. The

1459
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,720
Speaker 11: Rams and the Cardinals still in it here, but LA

1460
01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:28,160
Speaker 11: is up twenty three to twenty late in the third quarter.

1461
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:30,120
Speaker 10: They're also in the red zone right now.

1462
01:08:30,280 --> 01:08:34,839
Speaker 11: The Patriots another touchdown Romandre Stevenson with his second rushing touchdown,

1463
01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:36,040
Speaker 11: third touchdown.

1464
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:36,080
Speaker 2: Of the day.

1465
01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,760
Speaker 11: They're up on the Dolphins thirty one to ten late

1466
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:41,160
Speaker 11: in the third and the Eagles have taken the lead

1467
01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:44,519
Speaker 11: from the Commanders. They're fourteen to ten, also late in

1468
01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:47,599
Speaker 11: the third quarter. Miles Garrett, in case you missed it,

1469
01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:50,800
Speaker 11: did break the NFL single season sack record, ending the

1470
01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:53,160
Speaker 11: season with twenty three, and the Browns also walked it

1471
01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:54,760
Speaker 11: off with a field goal to defeat the.

1472
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:58,719
Speaker 10: Bengals twenty to eighteen. You were talking already to our.

1473
01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:02,320
Speaker 11: Buddy Adam Adam Kaplan that The Colts already announced that

1474
01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:04,800
Speaker 11: Chris Baller GM and head coach Shane Steichen are going

1475
01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:07,240
Speaker 11: to return for the twenty twenty six season. The Colts

1476
01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:09,880
Speaker 11: did lose today to the Texans thirty eight to thirty.

1477
01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:12,559
Speaker 11: Falcons held on nineteen to seventeen against the Saints. So

1478
01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:16,440
Speaker 11: the Panthers are sending their thank you baskets and muffins

1479
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:19,040
Speaker 11: and whatever they're sending over to the Falcons because they

1480
01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:22,000
Speaker 11: get cambe maybe a candle something. They won the NFC

1481
01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:24,320
Speaker 11: South for the first time since twenty fifteen. It's their

1482
01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:26,920
Speaker 11: first playoff berth since twenty seventeen.

1483
01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:29,200
Speaker 10: But the Jaguars are probably one of the hottest.

1484
01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:31,280
Speaker 11: Teams right now, winning eight games in a row to

1485
01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 11: end the regular season, they win the AFC South. They're

1486
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:35,960
Speaker 11: still alive technically for the number one seed in the

1487
01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:39,040
Speaker 11: AFC after crushing the Titans forty one to seven. And

1488
01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:40,560
Speaker 11: we didn't talk about it earlier, I mean at the

1489
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:42,439
Speaker 11: end of the season, but Cam Wore did get hurt

1490
01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:45,120
Speaker 11: after he got a rushing touchdown in the first quarter.

1491
01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:47,320
Speaker 10: They took him out with a shoulder injury.

1492
01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:51,240
Speaker 11: In college football, former TC quarterback Josh Hoover has committed

1493
01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:54,080
Speaker 11: to Indiana. And when it comes to the NBA right now,

1494
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:57,200
Speaker 11: the Heat lead the Pelicans forty one to thirty seven. Late,

1495
01:09:57,479 --> 01:09:59,600
Speaker 11: that's kennop is really the first quarter. Late in the

1496
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:01,800
Speaker 11: first cour everyone scores forty in the first quarter. Now

1497
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:03,599
Speaker 11: it's like, I don't even know why I'm surprised. Forty

1498
01:10:03,640 --> 01:10:06,160
Speaker 11: one thirty seven late in the first. Early in the second,

1499
01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,479
Speaker 11: Timberwolves lead the Wizards forty five to thirty four.

1500
01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:11,000
Speaker 10: Back to you, it is true.

1501
01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:15,519
Speaker 2: I did tune into Manzis Clippers and Celtics. It was

1502
01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:17,840
Speaker 2: one on one, I think one ninety and there's three

1503
01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:19,680
Speaker 2: minutes left. I'm like, oh, there's three minutes left in

1504
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:20,120
Speaker 2: the third.

1505
01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:25,960
Speaker 11: Yes, yeah, And it was a fun third quarter, back

1506
01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:27,960
Speaker 11: and forth, back and forth. But Jalen Brown could not

1507
01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:30,280
Speaker 11: miss if his life depended on it. He was on

1508
01:10:30,320 --> 01:10:33,559
Speaker 11: the fight, Yer, Fighter. And then Derek Jones got hurt

1509
01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:36,200
Speaker 11: again the same exact way, with the same exact way, Carrie,

1510
01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:37,400
Speaker 11: I'll tell you who did miss.

1511
01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:41,439
Speaker 2: Aussie was and Shane in Des Moines. Because we have

1512
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:44,439
Speaker 2: gotten they tagged you guys, They take you and bring

1513
01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:47,240
Speaker 2: you into this. Yes, I know I brought Kerry into this. Well,

1514
01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:49,960
Speaker 2: you pointed it out to the one. How about when

1515
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:54,800
Speaker 2: I was ranting about the NFL allowing the Panthers to

1516
01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 2: host a playoff game as a division winner, and I

1517
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:00,240
Speaker 2: put it in the in the which is some of

1518
01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:02,960
Speaker 2: them has been talked about for years. And I know

1519
01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:05,120
Speaker 2: it's been talked about for years, as I said, because

1520
01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:08,759
Speaker 2: the Seahawks benefited from YEA and it was complete garbage

1521
01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:11,120
Speaker 2: for the New Orleans Saints. But for some reason, when

1522
01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:12,880
Speaker 2: people want to call me out on the rant, they

1523
01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:15,559
Speaker 2: don't hear that part of the segment. No, I get it.

1524
01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:20,720
Speaker 2: I understand firsthand on the whole deal. Yeah, completely, But

1525
01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:22,960
Speaker 2: it was just in comparison. The reason the rank came

1526
01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:26,160
Speaker 2: up today was you're trying to tell us how important

1527
01:11:26,200 --> 01:11:30,679
Speaker 2: the division is. You're having unimportant division games being played today,

1528
01:11:31,040 --> 01:11:33,240
Speaker 2: So it contradicts. It flies in the face of what

1529
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:35,519
Speaker 2: you're trying to tell us. Now there's a couple of

1530
01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:38,680
Speaker 2: division games Rams and Cardinals that looks like doesn't mean

1531
01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:41,639
Speaker 2: it didn't mean anything for Arizona. It does for the Rams.

1532
01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:43,880
Speaker 2: The Cardinals are giving them all they can handle them.

1533
01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:46,479
Speaker 2: Then some but not every situation is like that.

1534
01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:46,920
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1535
01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:50,320
Speaker 3: No, obviously, when you're listening to something. People are gonna

1536
01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:52,880
Speaker 3: hear what they want to hear always and point out

1537
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 3: the things that they want to point out. But yeah,

1538
01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:57,840
Speaker 3: you did say that. I know that you did say that.

1539
01:11:57,880 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 3: You talked about your Seahawks benefiting in that situation. But

1540
01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:03,479
Speaker 3: I mean, you talk about these games right now when

1541
01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:06,720
Speaker 3: you look at Denver, you look at the Rams, you

1542
01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:10,200
Speaker 3: look at Chicago, all these teams that are in the playoffs,

1543
01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:14,719
Speaker 3: right and like playing in these spots where these games

1544
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,200
Speaker 3: don't mean anything, it's hard to see, like what version

1545
01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:19,960
Speaker 3: of this team that we're going to get in the playoffs.

1546
01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:21,840
Speaker 3: And so that's the other thing about these games, Dan,

1547
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:24,479
Speaker 3: you play lesser competition or you play in these funky

1548
01:12:24,520 --> 01:12:27,559
Speaker 3: games where some of these games don't matter for the

1549
01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:29,559
Speaker 3: other team and you don't know what you're gonna get,

1550
01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:31,320
Speaker 3: and so these games are really hard to play.

1551
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:36,200
Speaker 2: I would imagine with can Coon on the horizon. And

1552
01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:39,519
Speaker 2: again it's just it's the don't get hurt. I don't

1553
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:42,280
Speaker 2: want to go through rehab the rest of the season. Yeah,

1554
01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:44,680
Speaker 2: I hear all of the stories that we try to

1555
01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 2: preach and say, boy, they were they're playing for their job,

1556
01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:50,840
Speaker 2: They're trying to put good stuff on tape like I

1557
01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:53,160
Speaker 2: get all that, it just doesn't resonate with me.

1558
01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:55,080
Speaker 3: And some are dan and then you know, you talk

1559
01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:57,160
Speaker 3: about the ones that aren't making the money, they don'ts

1560
01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:58,920
Speaker 3: are or they may be having to send thems like

1561
01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:01,400
Speaker 3: there are so many things in these games that us

1562
01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:03,920
Speaker 3: as fans may not know that that's happening. And so

1563
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:08,240
Speaker 3: you're looking at Bigsby for Philadelphia getting all these carries

1564
01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:10,559
Speaker 3: like it may be some incentive to that as well.

1565
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:15,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, incentives are a real a deal. So far,

1566
01:13:15,520 --> 01:13:17,320
Speaker 2: the Bills look like the real deal, but they are

1567
01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:19,439
Speaker 2: playing the Jets in their final home game in high

1568
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:23,320
Speaker 2: Mark Stadium twenty nine to nothing. The Patriots have added

1569
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:27,799
Speaker 2: touchdowns so they're comfortable thirty one to ten, but Denver's

1570
01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:30,439
Speaker 2: still holding on to that ten point lead in Denver's

1571
01:13:30,479 --> 01:13:33,760
Speaker 2: just forced a Chargers punt as Trey Lance is incomplete

1572
01:13:33,920 --> 01:13:37,520
Speaker 2: on thirty nine from their own territory. Eagles and Commanders

1573
01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:39,280
Speaker 2: in a tight one, and the Bears have just forced

1574
01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:42,639
Speaker 2: Alliance punt, so Chicago down by eight with eleven twenty

1575
01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:45,320
Speaker 2: one left to go, Kayleb Williams and crew coming back

1576
01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:47,759
Speaker 2: out on the field with the number two seed still alive.

1586
01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:11,160
Speaker 2: fantasy season. Who are the real Kings of fantasy football?

1587
01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:14,920
Speaker 2: He's carry I'm Dan Byer, Monty. She'll tell us next

1588
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:17,320
Speaker 2: here on End Zone Radio on Fox Sports Radio.

1589
01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:21,479
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

1590
01:14:22,360 --> 01:14:25,960
Speaker 2: Something's taking shape, others not so much. At end Zone

1591
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:29,160
Speaker 2: Radio on Fox Sports Radio, He's carry Rhoades thee All Pro.

1592
01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:33,479
Speaker 2: I'm Dan Byer. Here's what's happening in this week eighteen

1593
01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:36,840
Speaker 2: window seven games going on. The Commanders are down seven

1594
01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:40,120
Speaker 2: to the Eagles. But Washington right now in a golden

1595
01:14:40,160 --> 01:14:42,200
Speaker 2: goal situation. They had it second a goal at the

1596
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,719
Speaker 2: one yard line, but at false start it's gonna push

1597
01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:46,559
Speaker 2: them back, so it's gonna be second and goal from

1598
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:49,360
Speaker 2: about the sixth. Philadelphia is up seventeen to ten in

1599
01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:52,040
Speaker 2: that game with eleven minutes to go. The Philadelphia wins

1600
01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:55,040
Speaker 2: in Chicago loses, the Eagles are the two seed. Well,

1601
01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:57,760
Speaker 2: the Bears trail the Lions right now sixteen to eight.

1602
01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:01,639
Speaker 2: Detroit was up sixteen to nothing. The Bears were able

1603
01:15:01,680 --> 01:15:03,920
Speaker 2: to get within eight after a touchdown at a two

1604
01:15:03,920 --> 01:15:07,839
Speaker 2: point conversion, and now Chicago's got the football in Detroit

1605
01:15:07,960 --> 01:15:11,760
Speaker 2: territory with eight minutes to go. Focusing on that, the

1606
01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:14,400
Speaker 2: Rams are in the end zone. They've kicked the extra point.

1607
01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,280
Speaker 2: They've extended their lead over the Cardinals to ten. If

1608
01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:19,160
Speaker 2: the Rams win this game, they'll be the five seed

1609
01:15:19,200 --> 01:15:21,719
Speaker 2: and the Niners will be the sixth seed. In the NFC,

1610
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,280
Speaker 2: Patriots are running away from the Dolphins. It's thirty eight

1611
01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:27,080
Speaker 2: to ten. New England locking up a top two seed.

1612
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:29,400
Speaker 2: They would get number one if Denver would lose to

1613
01:15:29,439 --> 01:15:32,040
Speaker 2: the Chargers, but Denver right now has a lead on

1614
01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:35,400
Speaker 2: LA thirteen to three early in the fourth quarter, so

1615
01:15:35,479 --> 01:15:37,400
Speaker 2: the Broncos trying to hold on to that number one

1616
01:15:37,439 --> 01:15:41,360
Speaker 2: overall seed. Buffalo with a win would pass the Chargers

1617
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:43,840
Speaker 2: in the standings, so Buffalo would jump up to six.

1618
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,360
Speaker 2: They're routing the Jets thirty five to nothing. And yes,

1619
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:50,679
Speaker 2: the Jets still don't have an interception in this game

1620
01:15:51,160 --> 01:15:54,640
Speaker 2: or all season long, so Buffalo could move up to

1621
01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:58,280
Speaker 2: that sixth spot if the Broncos Chargers result dan deeds.

1622
01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:01,360
Speaker 2: Do you understand I'm sure you do. This is a

1623
01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:04,240
Speaker 2: rhetorical question, but do you understand how hard it is

1624
01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:07,760
Speaker 2: to not get one interception in a season? I mean,

1625
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:10,080
Speaker 2: there are so many games where you're like, oh, it's

1626
01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:13,000
Speaker 2: a tip interception, the lineman catches it, or a linebacker,

1627
01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:16,880
Speaker 2: anybody catches a tip overthrow or whatever. Fourteen to not

1628
01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:20,600
Speaker 2: have one, it's just I believe in the curse, like

1629
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:22,320
Speaker 2: you stawt I going to that point, right, are the

1630
01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:26,320
Speaker 2: deaths cursed? I there wasn't even a point where anybody

1631
01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:29,840
Speaker 2: did an arm punt, right, Like the defense did not

1632
01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:32,920
Speaker 2: get an offense in a third and like twenty five

1633
01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:35,840
Speaker 2: and allow him to just chuck one up sixty yards

1634
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:39,320
Speaker 2: downfield and get an interception. I said, they haven't gotten any.

1635
01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:41,439
Speaker 2: Hell Mary's at the end of games had to defend

1636
01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:43,960
Speaker 2: because they haven't really been in the lead in any games.

1637
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:46,960
Speaker 2: So like the cheap interception that way hasn't happened. It's

1638
01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:49,120
Speaker 2: truly a remarkable that's a remarkable one.

1639
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:50,920
Speaker 3: And also, like Dan we off Air, what did I

1640
01:16:50,960 --> 01:16:53,160
Speaker 3: say about that Bears a Lions game after the Bears

1641
01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:54,760
Speaker 3: scored the one to cut it to eight?

1642
01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:57,200
Speaker 2: I said what I say? Well, you know he said

1643
01:16:57,200 --> 01:16:59,800
Speaker 2: something that was on point, because otherwise who wandn't remind

1644
01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:02,479
Speaker 2: me the Bears got the Lions right where they want

1645
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:04,880
Speaker 2: them and the Bears now have a third down and

1646
01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:08,200
Speaker 2: about one at the Lion's seven yard line six minutes

1647
01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:10,360
Speaker 2: to go. Let's go over to Monzy Bolano, who has

1648
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:12,440
Speaker 2: our year end fantasy.

1649
01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:17,599
Speaker 1: Numbers, Fantasy heads and missus.

1650
01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:21,360
Speaker 11: All right, Monzi fellas, who do you think was the

1651
01:17:21,360 --> 01:17:23,680
Speaker 11: top scorer in fantasy football this year?

1652
01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:24,720
Speaker 13: Top?

1653
01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:25,200
Speaker 10: It's not.

1654
01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:27,040
Speaker 11: I just I feel like there's a couple of names

1655
01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:29,200
Speaker 11: that you may be, you know, tossing around in your head.

1656
01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:31,439
Speaker 2: Let me go first, Dan, because I'm not big in

1657
01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 2: the fantasy let me just like the just in.

1658
01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:37,719
Speaker 10: Total points on a from Week one.

1659
01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 11: To Week eighteen, Kristin McCaffrey, Christian McCaffrey is the answer.

1660
01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:45,639
Speaker 10: Is the answer.

1661
01:17:46,640 --> 01:17:49,080
Speaker 11: I would not have either, and that's why I didn't

1662
01:17:49,080 --> 01:17:49,880
Speaker 11: think you would have guessed that.

1663
01:17:49,880 --> 01:17:51,400
Speaker 10: But it's funny because you're like, I don't do fantasy

1664
01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:52,920
Speaker 10: only because.

1665
01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:54,519
Speaker 2: The catch is in my mind, he got some money.

1666
01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:56,439
Speaker 11: He does have a lot of catches, But so is

1667
01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:58,120
Speaker 11: puking a CoA, you know what I mean. And so

1668
01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:02,200
Speaker 11: Christian McCaffrey was the top up score in fantasy football

1669
01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:06,400
Speaker 11: this year four hundred and sixteen point six points averaging

1670
01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:09,120
Speaker 11: twenty four and a half points a week. Coming in

1671
01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:13,639
Speaker 11: second is actually Bijon Robinson three hundred and seventy point

1672
01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:18,400
Speaker 11: eight points averaging twenty one point eight. Phukinakua comes in

1673
01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:21,519
Speaker 11: really close to Josh Allen, both of them three hundred

1674
01:18:21,560 --> 01:18:24,519
Speaker 11: and sixty six, Josh Allen three hundred and sixty four

1675
01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:28,320
Speaker 11: and also three hundred and sixty four Jamir Gibbs, followed

1676
01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:32,479
Speaker 11: by Jonathan Taylor three hundred and sixty two, Jackson Smith

1677
01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:35,360
Speaker 11: and Jigba rounding this list out with three hundred and

1678
01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:38,519
Speaker 11: fifty nine point nine points, which are the obvious ones,

1679
01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 11: but I am surprised Christian McCaffrey is at the top

1680
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:41,639
Speaker 11: of this list.

1681
01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:45,280
Speaker 2: These Numero Uno. The Bears just by the way when

1682
01:18:45,320 --> 01:18:48,479
Speaker 2: Monty was talking, have gotten into the end zone against

1683
01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:50,800
Speaker 2: the Lions, so a two point conversion could tie this

1684
01:18:50,920 --> 01:18:54,080
Speaker 2: up for Chicago. With about five minutes left, the Commanders

1685
01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:56,920
Speaker 2: are in the end zone in Philadelphia, nine and a

1686
01:18:56,960 --> 01:18:59,160
Speaker 2: half left in that one, they have an extra point

1687
01:18:59,160 --> 01:18:59,920
Speaker 2: that could tie it up.

1688
01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,400
Speaker 3: We got drama, Dan, Do you know the crazy part

1689
01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:04,519
Speaker 3: about Christan McCaffrey went in the fantasy thing.

1690
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:07,559
Speaker 2: I'll give myself a not so good sat out.

1691
01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:08,680
Speaker 1: All this is rare.

1692
01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:11,240
Speaker 2: I we're rolling on this the only time in twenty

1693
01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:11,840
Speaker 2: twenty six.

1694
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:15,200
Speaker 3: I told Monty not to pick Christan McCaffery.

1695
01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:16,040
Speaker 10: Yes he did.

1696
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:18,640
Speaker 11: He said, I think he's gonna have a not a

1697
01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:20,439
Speaker 11: bad year, but a slow like you just said, he

1698
01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:21,879
Speaker 11: was going to do this exactly.

1699
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:25,080
Speaker 2: Yes, I thought the forty nine ers were old, yeah,

1700
01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:27,240
Speaker 2: and that guys would break down at something, and.

1701
01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:29,639
Speaker 11: That Christian McAffrey had just got an off an injury,

1702
01:19:29,720 --> 01:19:31,160
Speaker 11: you know, a season full of injuries.

1703
01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:33,880
Speaker 10: But he wasn't. I'm so surprised that he was the

1704
01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:34,439
Speaker 10: top one.

1705
01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:37,640
Speaker 11: And maybe that's why San Francisco managed to save of

1706
01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:39,080
Speaker 11: the season after all their injuries.

1707
01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:42,000
Speaker 2: Yes, and now they've got a little chip on their

1708
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 2: shoulder after the Seahawks took it to them one last night.

1709
01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:48,559
Speaker 2: The two point conversion in Chicago was good, so the

1710
01:19:48,640 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 2: Bears have pulled even with the Lions. It's sixteen apiece.

1711
01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:54,959
Speaker 2: The extra point in Philadelphia was good, so the Commanders

1712
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:57,800
Speaker 2: and Eagles are tied up at seventeen. Again. That's gonna

1713
01:19:57,800 --> 01:20:01,280
Speaker 2: determine the two in the three seeds, and it looks

1714
01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:04,479
Speaker 2: like the Rams will be the five seed unless Carol

1715
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:09,320
Speaker 2: excuse me, unless Arizona can put something together here over

1716
01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:13,320
Speaker 2: this final stretch of the third quarter. So San Francisco

1717
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:18,120
Speaker 2: and the sixth seed awaiting, likely the Bears or the Eagles.

1718
01:20:18,640 --> 01:20:20,760
Speaker 2: He is Carrier Roads. I'm Dan Bayer. You can find

1719
01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:23,599
Speaker 2: Monty Bolanos at Monte Bolanos. You can find Carry at

1720
01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:26,120
Speaker 2: Carrie twenty five Roads. You can find me at Dan

1721
01:20:26,160 --> 01:20:26,680
Speaker 2: Byer on.

1722
01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:32,160
Speaker 13: Fox Fantasy Head see them and missus.

1723
01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:35,639
Speaker 2: Not only did Miles Garrett get the NFL sack record

1724
01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:39,800
Speaker 2: today against the Bengals, a bunch of Bengals had a

1725
01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:43,479
Speaker 2: big problem with it. You'll hear from those parties next

1726
01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:44,599
Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio.

1727
01:20:45,439 --> 01:20:48,960
Speaker 1: Please you're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

1728
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:51,640
Speaker 2: The Lions are on the move and that could have

1729
01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:55,280
Speaker 2: a lot to do with what's happening in Philadelphia between

1730
01:20:55,320 --> 01:20:59,160
Speaker 2: the Eagles and Commanders. Welcome In. It is end Zone Radio,

1731
01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:01,880
Speaker 2: and David Mont has just taking a first down carry

1732
01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:04,360
Speaker 2: and it appears has gotten his own first down. With

1733
01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:06,720
Speaker 2: two and a half minutes to go, Bears have all

1734
01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:09,360
Speaker 2: three of their timeouts. But it's a sixteen doll game,

1735
01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:13,080
Speaker 2: and if Chicago loses this game and the Eagles top

1736
01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:16,600
Speaker 2: the Commander's, Philadelphia will be the two seed in the NFC.

1737
01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:20,920
Speaker 2: Welcome In. It is Week eighteen, so close to the

1738
01:21:21,040 --> 01:21:25,160
Speaker 2: NFL playoffs, but still some stuff to be decided. Those Eagles,

1739
01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:27,880
Speaker 2: by the way, had to punt it back to the Commander's.

1740
01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:31,559
Speaker 2: Bad job by CBS for having the Eagles current logo

1741
01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:34,040
Speaker 2: on the screen that you can't see if you're driving

1742
01:21:34,320 --> 01:21:38,439
Speaker 2: as they're wearing their wonderful throwback uniforms from I like

1743
01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:42,200
Speaker 2: to call the Dick for Meal era of the Philadelphia Eagles.

1744
01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:45,000
Speaker 2: That's what they're rocking today. But that's a seventeen doll

1745
01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:48,599
Speaker 2: ball game, and the Commander's getting a pass interference call.

1746
01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:51,559
Speaker 2: Terry McLaurin draws once, so now the Commanders get some

1747
01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:52,400
Speaker 2: yards as well.

1748
01:21:52,439 --> 01:21:55,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, when I see that logo right there of the Eagles,

1749
01:21:56,240 --> 01:21:59,639
Speaker 3: it just takes me back to Reggie White and Randall

1750
01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:01,480
Speaker 3: cunning Ham and those guys.

1751
01:22:01,280 --> 01:22:06,320
Speaker 2: It's they're really good. They're really cool. Buddy Ryan getting

1752
01:22:06,320 --> 01:22:09,880
Speaker 2: into the alter casing on the sideline, Yes that was

1753
01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:16,040
Speaker 2: in Houston. Yeah, Kevin Gilbrien. But yes, the uh uh,

1754
01:22:16,320 --> 01:22:18,760
Speaker 2: those were for a while, the good old days in Philadelphia,

1755
01:22:18,800 --> 01:22:21,240
Speaker 2: and then they ended up winning the Super Bowl last

1756
01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:24,040
Speaker 2: year and obviously Super Bowl fifty two against the New

1757
01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:26,960
Speaker 2: England Patriots to bring him there first. But they're the

1758
01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:29,040
Speaker 2: the good old days of the Reggie White and you

1759
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:33,880
Speaker 2: talk about that front line of Jerome Brown and yeah,

1760
01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:37,439
Speaker 2: the late Jerome Brown, great great Eagles players. But they're

1761
01:22:37,439 --> 01:22:41,000
Speaker 2: looking good today in uniform, not looking good on the field.

1762
01:22:41,160 --> 01:22:43,760
Speaker 2: But this is also a situation where the Eagles ended

1763
01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:46,920
Speaker 2: up saying we're not going to play our starters. Whatever

1764
01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:48,920
Speaker 2: happens happens. If they can beat the Commanders who have

1765
01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:52,680
Speaker 2: Josh Johnson at quarterback today, and the Bears happened to

1766
01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:54,880
Speaker 2: fall to the Lions, then the Eagles will benefit it.

1767
01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,200
Speaker 2: But they didn't find the benefit of playing any of

1768
01:22:57,280 --> 01:23:01,120
Speaker 2: their starters in a game where they really hurt their seeding.

1769
01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:04,160
Speaker 2: The only thing that could happen is is it maybe

1770
01:23:04,200 --> 01:23:06,320
Speaker 2: be helped and they didn't think that that risk was

1771
01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:07,120
Speaker 2: worth taking.

1772
01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:10,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, these these decisions you can't They're not to be

1773
01:23:10,560 --> 01:23:13,920
Speaker 3: taken lightly. Dan, and I know these teams are gonna

1774
01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:16,519
Speaker 3: be planned next week, right, and so when the playoffs start,

1775
01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:18,719
Speaker 3: they're going to be playing. And so this is almost

1776
01:23:18,800 --> 01:23:22,599
Speaker 3: like that game, that preseason game before. In my mind,

1777
01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:24,920
Speaker 3: this is how I would repost these things where it's

1778
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:27,640
Speaker 3: almost like that playoff game before you you played the

1779
01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:30,519
Speaker 3: first regular season game. It's like that dress rehearsal for

1780
01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:33,719
Speaker 3: the starters season. So I would definitely give them some snaps.

1781
01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:36,400
Speaker 3: I mean, I haven't been in a situation where I

1782
01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:38,960
Speaker 3: or I could not play in the last game or

1783
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:40,880
Speaker 3: take a rest to get into the playoffs. We always

1784
01:23:40,880 --> 01:23:43,719
Speaker 3: were kind of fighting to get in and so didn't

1785
01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:46,679
Speaker 3: really was never really afforded this luxury. But it's it's

1786
01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:49,439
Speaker 3: not an easy decision because rustover rest is.

1787
01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:52,240
Speaker 2: A big thing. Matthew Stafford started a touchdown pass, So

1788
01:23:52,320 --> 01:23:54,720
Speaker 2: the Rams have extended their lead to sixteen. When next

1789
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:57,680
Speaker 2: with an extra point coming up, they will be the

1790
01:23:57,800 --> 01:24:01,680
Speaker 2: five seed, as they have now extended that lead against Arizona.

1791
01:24:01,760 --> 01:24:04,599
Speaker 2: In a Rams win today against the Cardinals, locks up

1792
01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:07,240
Speaker 2: the five seed for them. Earlier today, the Bengals and

1793
01:24:07,240 --> 01:24:11,599
Speaker 2: Browns played in Cincinnati, Ohio State pride on the line,

1794
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:15,960
Speaker 2: but also on the line the all time sack record.

1795
01:24:16,000 --> 01:24:21,120
Speaker 2: Miles Garrett was a half sack behind Michael Strahan and TJ.

1796
01:24:21,240 --> 01:24:23,639
Speaker 2: Watt for the all time mark. And it was late

1797
01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:26,040
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter, about five minutes to go in

1798
01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:30,240
Speaker 2: the game that that sack did occur and Miles Garrett

1799
01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:34,320
Speaker 2: got the record. But it's what happened immediately after that

1800
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:37,320
Speaker 2: as the Bengals mad listen to Bengals head coach Zach

1801
01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:42,599
Speaker 2: Taylor upset about the stoppage in play to honor Miles

1802
01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:44,240
Speaker 2: Garrett's single season record.

1803
01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:46,560
Speaker 15: There's five minutes left in our season. We're playing for

1804
01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,920
Speaker 15: our lives here and I never told that we're going

1805
01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:53,040
Speaker 15: to stop the game and in a critical moment like that,

1806
01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:55,759
Speaker 15: and the refs just said that they made a decision

1807
01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:57,320
Speaker 15: that they were going to stop the game, and they

1808
01:24:57,320 --> 01:24:59,040
Speaker 15: said they tried to do it as quickly as possible.

1809
01:24:59,240 --> 01:25:02,120
Speaker 15: I didn't feel that we didn't sub We're trying to

1810
01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:03,839
Speaker 15: be on the ball and go and play with tempo,

1811
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:06,800
Speaker 15: and the Empire just held the ball so that we

1812
01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:08,800
Speaker 15: couldn't do anything, and I'm Leon and Joe get on

1813
01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:12,560
Speaker 15: the ball. We didn't sell we're going, and then we

1814
01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:15,439
Speaker 15: couldn't play. And so again trying to get an answer

1815
01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:18,000
Speaker 15: was not easy. They just said that they made a

1816
01:25:18,000 --> 01:25:20,000
Speaker 15: decision as a as a crew to stop the game

1817
01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:22,639
Speaker 15: when that happened. I guess it didn't matter when it happened.

1818
01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:23,920
Speaker 15: It just they were going to stop the.

1819
01:25:23,840 --> 01:25:26,080
Speaker 2: Game, and that it happened, and you weren't informed that.

1820
01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:27,479
Speaker 15: Though I was never informed of that. They didn't say

1821
01:25:27,520 --> 01:25:28,800
Speaker 15: one word. We meet with him in the ninety minute

1822
01:25:28,800 --> 01:25:30,800
Speaker 15: meeting himfore the game, they never said one word about that.

1823
01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:34,719
Speaker 2: All right, you sound like a cry baby, Zach Taylor.

1824
01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:38,200
Speaker 2: Any hope of people actually getting on your side and

1825
01:25:38,320 --> 01:25:41,880
Speaker 2: backing you up, You sound like a cry baby for

1826
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:43,720
Speaker 2: him to get that sack today, I'll tell you what.

1827
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:46,679
Speaker 2: Any of the fans that sat in that stadium, sure

1828
01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:48,480
Speaker 2: as heck. By the way, this scheme was in Cincinnati,

1829
01:25:48,880 --> 01:25:51,679
Speaker 2: they sure's heck weren't there to see a showdown between

1830
01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:54,400
Speaker 2: Shador Sanders and Joe Burrow. They could see that next

1831
01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:57,760
Speaker 2: year if they wanted. It's freezing cold today. They went

1832
01:25:57,800 --> 01:26:00,519
Speaker 2: there and they wanted to see history, and for fifty

1833
01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:03,360
Speaker 2: four minutes you didn't have history, and then you finally

1834
01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:07,520
Speaker 2: got it and you're worried about hurrying up because you're

1835
01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:14,040
Speaker 2: because you're fighting for your life. I'm sorry, Zach Taylor.

1836
01:26:14,400 --> 01:26:16,960
Speaker 2: He sound like an idiot. You sound like a cry baby,

1837
01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:19,040
Speaker 2: and if you ever want people on your side, this

1838
01:26:19,120 --> 01:26:21,280
Speaker 2: is not the way to do it. I agree.

1839
01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:24,880
Speaker 3: It sounds like all those things you said, but also insensitive,

1840
01:26:25,720 --> 01:26:28,519
Speaker 3: like really being in the moment of what the moment is.

1841
01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:31,040
Speaker 3: This moment's not about you and not about the Bengals,

1842
01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:33,160
Speaker 3: It's not about any of that. I mean, they're coming

1843
01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:34,679
Speaker 3: to see a football game, but also, like you said,

1844
01:26:34,680 --> 01:26:37,920
Speaker 3: they're coming to see history, and so the opportunity to

1845
01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:40,439
Speaker 3: make up to make history and history being made in

1846
01:26:40,479 --> 01:26:42,680
Speaker 3: the day when you're in that stadium, you have to

1847
01:26:42,680 --> 01:26:45,400
Speaker 3: recognize that. And they don't have to tell you. I mean,

1848
01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:47,680
Speaker 3: I don't know if there's a protocol where they have

1849
01:26:47,720 --> 01:26:50,679
Speaker 3: to tell him exactly what's gonna happen. But he sounds

1850
01:26:50,760 --> 01:26:53,880
Speaker 3: very insensitive, and he also sounds he's way off the

1851
01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:55,799
Speaker 3: mark and way off base with those comments.

1852
01:26:55,840 --> 01:26:58,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, losing the game, by the way benefits you Bengals

1853
01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:00,640
Speaker 2: like it like it could have it could i'mprove your

1854
01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:05,360
Speaker 2: draft spot. Zach Taylor was backed up. Why is wide

1855
01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:06,439
Speaker 2: receiver Jamar Chase.

1856
01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:09,799
Speaker 1: There were some people who were upset.

1857
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:12,240
Speaker 16: You seem to be one pointing down the field when

1858
01:27:12,640 --> 01:27:15,160
Speaker 16: the Browns were celebrating the sack that.

1859
01:27:15,240 --> 01:27:16,040
Speaker 1: Was during the middle of the game.

1860
01:27:16,200 --> 01:27:18,240
Speaker 5: That I never knew you could let the whole team

1861
01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:20,479
Speaker 5: get on your field. That's like, that's like me catching

1862
01:27:20,680 --> 01:27:21,960
Speaker 5: my tenth pass.

1863
01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:23,720
Speaker 1: And the whole team run on the field. We can

1864
01:27:23,760 --> 01:27:24,240
Speaker 1: get flagged.

1865
01:27:24,360 --> 01:27:26,040
Speaker 9: You can't. You can't do that, you know what I'm saying.

1866
01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:28,240
Speaker 5: But congrats to him and everything, But you know they

1867
01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:29,240
Speaker 5: got to call it flag when that play.

1868
01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:30,760
Speaker 1: I mean, you guys were trying to go win the game.

1869
01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:32,680
Speaker 5: We're trying to hurry up too. We couldn't even hurry up.

1870
01:27:32,720 --> 01:27:34,320
Speaker 5: The rest was looking at us like we did something

1871
01:27:34,360 --> 01:27:36,479
Speaker 5: wrong the whole time. So it was I don't know

1872
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:37,559
Speaker 5: what was going on on that play.

1873
01:27:37,640 --> 01:27:39,439
Speaker 16: I did to give you any kind of explanation of

1874
01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:40,679
Speaker 16: why it stopped without a flag.

1875
01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:42,920
Speaker 9: Oh no, I mean the interview.

1876
01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:46,679
Speaker 16: The rests Apparently, Zach said the rest told him after

1877
01:27:46,760 --> 01:27:49,439
Speaker 16: the fact that they had decided they were going to

1878
01:27:49,439 --> 01:27:52,280
Speaker 16: stop the game, but never informed the coaching step stopped

1879
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:54,120
Speaker 16: the game to let them celebrate the moment.

1880
01:27:54,200 --> 01:27:55,960
Speaker 9: Well, fuck, I hope hope.

1881
01:27:56,200 --> 01:27:58,519
Speaker 5: Well, they better stop the game when I do something

1882
01:27:58,520 --> 01:27:59,160
Speaker 5: in my back end.

1883
01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:00,840
Speaker 9: That's all I got to say about that one.

1884
01:28:01,479 --> 01:28:09,080
Speaker 2: It's like me catching my tenth pass making it says that. Hey, listen, Bengals,

1885
01:28:09,160 --> 01:28:11,800
Speaker 2: the Browns gave you Joe Flacco this season, all right,

1886
01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:14,680
Speaker 2: the least you can do is let them celebrate one

1887
01:28:14,680 --> 01:28:18,120
Speaker 2: of the few high points of their season and for her,

1888
01:28:18,600 --> 01:28:21,880
Speaker 2: for no one. This is the part that I don't understand, Carrie.

1889
01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:25,360
Speaker 2: For no one to understand the gravity of the situation

1890
01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:28,559
Speaker 2: and to be worried about a hurry up situation with

1891
01:28:28,640 --> 01:28:31,240
Speaker 2: five minutes left in the game of a meaningless game.

1892
01:28:32,400 --> 01:28:36,280
Speaker 2: I just I'm lost. I don't know how the Cincinnati

1893
01:28:36,320 --> 01:28:39,960
Speaker 2: Bengals could have this response unless you have sour grapes.

1894
01:28:40,320 --> 01:28:41,920
Speaker 3: I would have been more I would have been more

1895
01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:45,400
Speaker 3: okay with this being a conversation if they were honest

1896
01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:48,240
Speaker 3: about the situation and were saying, we just wanted the

1897
01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:49,840
Speaker 3: game to be over, we want to get out of there.

1898
01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:52,639
Speaker 3: Sure like that would have made more sense than trying

1899
01:28:52,640 --> 01:28:54,920
Speaker 3: to fight that this guy should be honored for breaking

1900
01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:55,639
Speaker 3: the sack record.

1901
01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:58,280
Speaker 2: They didn't make any sense, yes, and they weren't notified

1902
01:28:58,439 --> 01:29:01,240
Speaker 2: pregame rear. The officials understand that that maybe it was

1903
01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:03,960
Speaker 2: a piece of protocol that was missed, but yeah, to

1904
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:05,840
Speaker 2: sit there and whind about it, you just sound like

1905
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:09,519
Speaker 2: a bunch of whiners. Cincinnati whiners. That's what we should

1906
01:29:09,520 --> 01:29:12,240
Speaker 2: call him next year because of this. The Commanders, by

1907
01:29:12,280 --> 01:29:14,360
Speaker 2: the way, have just taken the lead on the Eagles.

1908
01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:17,000
Speaker 2: Josh Johnson on a bootleg on a third and goal

1909
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:19,599
Speaker 2: at the one yard line, gets into the end zone.

1910
01:29:19,920 --> 01:29:22,720
Speaker 2: It's twenty three seventeen with an extra point to come up.

1911
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:26,200
Speaker 2: Why this is important is the Lions had the football

1912
01:29:26,280 --> 01:29:29,439
Speaker 2: in Bear's territory, but Jared Goff threw an interception. It

1913
01:29:29,479 --> 01:29:31,640
Speaker 2: did have the Bear's pin back they were unable to

1914
01:29:31,680 --> 01:29:34,160
Speaker 2: convert a third and long, So the Bears are putting

1915
01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:38,400
Speaker 2: it back to the Lions in the scenario. But Philadelphia

1916
01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:41,719
Speaker 2: the three seed right now. If they lose, that locks

1917
01:29:41,800 --> 01:29:43,720
Speaker 2: up the two seed for the Bears. So no matter

1918
01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 2: what happens in that game against the Lions, the Bears

1919
01:29:47,400 --> 01:29:49,160
Speaker 2: would be the two seed and the Eagles would end

1920
01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:50,200
Speaker 2: up being the three seed.

1921
01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:53,200
Speaker 3: Man, these games, these games are crazy. And we talked

1922
01:29:53,200 --> 01:29:55,519
Speaker 3: about Dan, you can't really plan for any of this.

1923
01:29:55,640 --> 01:29:58,160
Speaker 3: And you know, these games, even though they may, like

1924
01:29:58,200 --> 01:30:00,479
Speaker 3: I said, be meaningless as far as you haven't guys

1925
01:30:00,520 --> 01:30:03,840
Speaker 3: out there, there are some ramifications that come from this game.

1926
01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:06,120
Speaker 3: And so the Bears are fighting back, got back in

1927
01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:08,320
Speaker 3: that Detroit game, doing their part, and now you.

1928
01:30:08,240 --> 01:30:09,960
Speaker 2: Know Philadelphia has given up their lead here in the

1929
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:14,519
Speaker 2: fourth quarter. I'm just surprised in Okay. So, in watching

1930
01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:19,160
Speaker 2: last night's Seahawks Rams game as a Seahawks fan, it

1931
01:30:19,240 --> 01:30:21,560
Speaker 2: was great to see the Seahawks go to San Francisco

1932
01:30:22,040 --> 01:30:24,519
Speaker 2: and win that game and get a first round by

1933
01:30:24,520 --> 01:30:27,480
Speaker 2: and home field advantage. But this is also a Seahawks

1934
01:30:27,479 --> 01:30:29,400
Speaker 2: team that has a better record on the road than

1935
01:30:29,400 --> 01:30:31,240
Speaker 2: they do at home this year fourteen to three, and

1936
01:30:31,320 --> 01:30:33,559
Speaker 2: it's tough the top. But the two losses came at

1937
01:30:33,600 --> 01:30:35,559
Speaker 2: home to the forty nine ers and Buccaneers. They lost

1938
01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:37,560
Speaker 2: a road game to the Rams where they missed a

1939
01:30:37,560 --> 01:30:39,919
Speaker 2: sixty one yard field goal at the end of the contest.

1940
01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:45,879
Speaker 2: The matchups wise that we look at these playoffs, what's

1941
01:30:45,960 --> 01:30:50,280
Speaker 2: just surprised surprises me so much is nobody cares. And

1942
01:30:50,320 --> 01:30:52,400
Speaker 2: I think that that and what I mean by that

1943
01:30:52,560 --> 01:30:56,519
Speaker 2: is the Eagles did have some incentive but felt it

1944
01:30:56,560 --> 01:30:59,400
Speaker 2: wasn't worth playing Jalen Hurts in this game to win

1945
01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:02,200
Speaker 2: this game that the you know the Bears might lose. Well,

1946
01:31:02,200 --> 01:31:05,120
Speaker 2: the Lions are playing everybody they want to win. They

1947
01:31:05,120 --> 01:31:08,519
Speaker 2: want to beat Ben Johnson and Chicago today, but it

1948
01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:11,920
Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily matter. And now if you're Philadelphia and you've

1949
01:31:11,920 --> 01:31:15,720
Speaker 2: played Tanner McKee in this matchup and the Lions do

1950
01:31:15,840 --> 01:31:18,600
Speaker 2: somehow pull it out. If you're Philadelphia, you have the

1951
01:31:18,680 --> 01:31:20,720
Speaker 2: Rams come into town. Yeah, and the Rams with a

1952
01:31:20,760 --> 01:31:23,480
Speaker 2: team that were attempting a field goal to beat Philadelphia

1953
01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:28,439
Speaker 2: earlier on in this season. And there's no there's no

1954
01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:31,920
Speaker 2: way to you can't game the system for your path

1955
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:34,719
Speaker 2: because now you're facing good teams. But it just tells

1956
01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:37,000
Speaker 2: me carry that something may be wrong. The teams don't

1957
01:31:37,040 --> 01:31:39,280
Speaker 2: care where they are in the playoffs as long as

1958
01:31:39,280 --> 01:31:42,600
Speaker 2: they're in the playoffs, because that's what adds value is

1959
01:31:42,640 --> 01:31:45,439
Speaker 2: if you have things for teams to try to win

1960
01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:48,599
Speaker 2: regular season games to get certain advantages, and if teams

1961
01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:51,639
Speaker 2: don't care about Week eighteen for those reasons, then there's

1962
01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:52,759
Speaker 2: something wrong with your system.

1963
01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:54,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, something wrong with the system for sure. But again,

1964
01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:59,160
Speaker 3: even if Philadelphia lost his game or the Bears lost

1965
01:31:59,160 --> 01:32:03,160
Speaker 3: his game, still already hosting playoff games, right, And so

1966
01:32:03,200 --> 01:32:05,599
Speaker 3: I mean, you you you try to play. I'm sure

1967
01:32:05,640 --> 01:32:08,120
Speaker 3: there are internal goals and we never know what they are.

1968
01:32:08,200 --> 01:32:10,519
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously, when you're a really good team, you

1969
01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:13,400
Speaker 3: have aspirations of you know, hosting the home playoff game,

1970
01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:15,679
Speaker 3: like going to the super Bowl, like went into the division.

1971
01:32:15,760 --> 01:32:18,680
Speaker 3: Like these are things that are pillars in your in

1972
01:32:18,720 --> 01:32:21,880
Speaker 3: your organization. So if those things are cleansed and you

1973
01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:23,960
Speaker 3: feel that you know, you know the tenor of your

1974
01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:26,559
Speaker 3: team and they need rest and you need to heal

1975
01:32:26,560 --> 01:32:28,840
Speaker 3: some things up, that's one approach. But also there's another

1976
01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:32,360
Speaker 3: approach where my team isn't playing well, and that's the Eagles, right.

1977
01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:35,360
Speaker 3: The Eagles haven't been great and so and I think

1978
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,840
Speaker 3: have been underperforming with the talent they have. So like,

1979
01:32:38,920 --> 01:32:41,080
Speaker 3: there are tweaks and things that you have to you

1980
01:32:41,479 --> 01:32:42,960
Speaker 3: have to have the pulse of your team to know

1981
01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:46,040
Speaker 3: these things. And as an outsider watching it, it can

1982
01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:48,360
Speaker 3: be confusing because like what is your goal and what

1983
01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:49,000
Speaker 3: are you trying to do?

1984
01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:52,600
Speaker 2: And I think that's the disconnect. And the Rams have

1985
01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:54,080
Speaker 2: played their started, they're on their way to be in

1986
01:32:54,120 --> 01:32:56,840
Speaker 2: the five set. They're not going to lose to Arizona.

1987
01:32:56,880 --> 01:32:59,719
Speaker 2: But that sets up then a forty nine Ers Eagles,

1988
01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:04,800
Speaker 2: Matt and the Bears. No matter if the Eagles don't

1989
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:07,160
Speaker 2: come back and end up winning this game, they do

1990
01:33:07,240 --> 01:33:10,840
Speaker 2: have the ball at their own forty six yard line

1991
01:33:10,840 --> 01:33:12,519
Speaker 2: with about two minutes left. They have all three of

1992
01:33:12,560 --> 01:33:17,200
Speaker 2: their timeouts. But if Philadelphia scores, I'm curious to see

1993
01:33:17,200 --> 01:33:19,720
Speaker 2: what they do. Do they go for two? You know,

1994
01:33:19,800 --> 01:33:21,800
Speaker 2: you try to win the game and end it there

1995
01:33:21,840 --> 01:33:24,320
Speaker 2: when you're playing your backup so that it sure seems

1996
01:33:24,320 --> 01:33:25,840
Speaker 2: that you're just trying to get through the game healthy.

1997
01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:28,120
Speaker 2: So you would probably end it at that point and

1998
01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:30,280
Speaker 2: not want to play overtime, right undred percent.

1999
01:33:30,400 --> 01:33:33,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I told you off air, Dan, like

2000
01:33:33,360 --> 01:33:36,759
Speaker 3: the other the worst thing about being in these positions,

2001
01:33:36,760 --> 01:33:38,559
Speaker 3: like even if you're a Washington or these teams that

2002
01:33:38,640 --> 01:33:40,840
Speaker 3: don't have a chance to win, or even in the

2003
01:33:40,920 --> 01:33:43,599
Speaker 3: scenario you're talking about now, if Philadelphia goes down to score,

2004
01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:45,920
Speaker 3: you go for two, like you want to end this game.

2005
01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:49,400
Speaker 3: You don't care about going overtime or momentum or any

2006
01:33:49,439 --> 01:33:51,280
Speaker 3: of those things that we talked about in the past.

2007
01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:54,400
Speaker 3: This game you want to get out of it unscathed,

2008
01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:55,680
Speaker 3: and so if you can get a chance to go

2009
01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:57,160
Speaker 3: for two and win it, and you definitely do that.

2010
01:33:57,280 --> 01:34:00,240
Speaker 2: We do have a final from Buffalo the Bills hop

2011
01:34:00,320 --> 01:34:04,360
Speaker 2: the Jets thirty five to eight. It is now a final.

2012
01:34:05,120 --> 01:34:10,040
Speaker 2: Zero interceptions thrown by the Buffalo Bills today, Monzi, can

2013
01:34:10,080 --> 01:34:11,920
Speaker 2: you confirm that in the in the end there was

2014
01:34:12,000 --> 01:34:16,719
Speaker 2: zero interceptions, Mancy Belanos? Was it zero months?

2015
01:34:18,720 --> 01:34:20,320
Speaker 11: Let me, let me just double check, let me just

2016
01:34:20,360 --> 01:34:23,599
Speaker 11: like refresh, let me just you know, one hundred zero owners,

2017
01:34:23,920 --> 01:34:27,120
Speaker 11: zero interceptions, three before touchdowns by Mitchell Trubisky.

2018
01:34:27,280 --> 01:34:31,759
Speaker 2: So it is also the farewell to high Mark Stadium. Yes,

2019
01:34:31,800 --> 01:34:35,560
Speaker 2: that's right, very likely unless somehow the Bills and Chargers

2020
01:34:35,680 --> 01:34:39,120
Speaker 2: end up playing each other in the AFC Championship game.

2021
01:34:39,520 --> 01:34:41,840
Speaker 2: That would be the only way Buffalo would be able

2022
01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:44,920
Speaker 2: to host a playoff game, as if they were to

2023
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:47,839
Speaker 2: face the what's likely to be the seventh seeded Chargers.

2024
01:34:48,200 --> 01:34:50,240
Speaker 2: Denver's up sixteen to three with two and a half

2025
01:34:50,280 --> 01:34:53,080
Speaker 2: minutes left, They're facing a fourth and three. They could

2026
01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:55,800
Speaker 2: kick a field goal. It's Sean Payton. They could go

2027
01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:59,320
Speaker 2: for it, right, So, I mean the Chargers don't have

2028
01:34:59,320 --> 01:35:01,360
Speaker 2: any timeout. I don't think that they're really interested in

2029
01:35:01,400 --> 01:35:03,680
Speaker 2: doing anything with the football, so they may just just

2030
01:35:03,760 --> 01:35:05,960
Speaker 2: as well go for it. And why is bo Nick

2031
01:35:06,000 --> 01:35:06,719
Speaker 2: still in this game?

2032
01:35:07,320 --> 01:35:09,240
Speaker 3: He just got sacked right there and that just makes me,

2033
01:35:09,360 --> 01:35:12,720
Speaker 3: It just it scares me, like this game's over. So

2034
01:35:12,960 --> 01:35:15,479
Speaker 3: I mean Nicks, I mean Peyton, get Nicks out the game.

2035
01:35:15,600 --> 01:35:18,599
Speaker 3: Well it's thirteen. Yeah, you want to make sure that

2036
01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:21,680
Speaker 3: you have the cushion. It is for the number one

2037
01:35:21,800 --> 01:35:24,559
Speaker 3: overall seed. If he does get a little dinged up,

2038
01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:29,439
Speaker 3: he'll have a way Boto to rest Denver's kicking the

2039
01:35:29,439 --> 01:35:32,960
Speaker 3: field goal. So Denver will kick the field goal. It

2040
01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:38,320
Speaker 3: was a short attempt, twenty three yard attempt, and the

2041
01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:40,880
Speaker 3: kick is good. I can't take it for granted after

2042
01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:43,600
Speaker 3: Jason Myers missed his short one last night, but that

2043
01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:46,160
Speaker 3: is good for Will Lutts. So it's nineteen to three.

2044
01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:49,240
Speaker 3: Chargers don't have any timeouts to twenty three left to go.

2045
01:35:49,320 --> 01:35:52,800
Speaker 3: That's what separates Denver from the number one overall seed.

2046
01:35:52,880 --> 01:35:56,400
Speaker 3: And then with that Chargers loss, Buffalo then again would

2047
01:35:56,439 --> 01:36:00,280
Speaker 3: move into the sixth spot in the AF seed game.

2048
01:36:00,280 --> 01:36:02,040
Speaker 3: We didn't talk about at all today. Would that be

2049
01:36:02,080 --> 01:36:05,639
Speaker 3: a score of Gomi? It is eleven nine the Chiefs

2050
01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:10,000
Speaker 3: Spin Raiders. We will have to look that up. Is

2051
01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:14,000
Speaker 3: eleven nine score Agami. I'm not sure that that would

2052
01:36:14,040 --> 01:36:15,280
Speaker 3: be a very good candidate.

2053
01:36:15,920 --> 01:36:18,960
Speaker 2: It would. The way that the Bills got to thirty five,

2054
01:36:19,080 --> 01:36:21,800
Speaker 2: by the way, was so funky. But thirty five in

2055
01:36:21,840 --> 01:36:25,599
Speaker 2: the pre two point conversion era was a lot more

2056
01:36:25,640 --> 01:36:28,320
Speaker 2: normal than you would than you were accustomed to. But

2057
01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:29,960
Speaker 2: the way that they got there because they were at

2058
01:36:30,000 --> 01:36:33,160
Speaker 2: twenty nine if they went for two. But yeah, so

2059
01:36:33,360 --> 01:36:36,880
Speaker 2: this is uh, New England is one and Denver's about

2060
01:36:36,920 --> 01:36:38,920
Speaker 2: to win. So Jacksonville's going to be locked into the

2061
01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:41,679
Speaker 2: three spot. Denver, I they can hold on for these

2062
01:36:41,840 --> 01:36:44,919
Speaker 2: final two to twenty three will be the top spot.

2063
01:36:45,280 --> 01:36:48,080
Speaker 2: So that would set up that Chargers Patriots game in

2064
01:36:48,160 --> 01:36:51,760
Speaker 2: New England next weekend. That will be a Dan. It'll

2065
01:36:51,800 --> 01:36:54,679
Speaker 2: be fun, all right, He's carry roads. I'm Dan Beyer.

2066
01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:57,880
Speaker 2: Will wrap up Week eighteen and what the playoff picture

2067
01:36:58,280 --> 01:37:01,360
Speaker 2: will look like. Plus we have game tonight between the

2068
01:37:01,400 --> 01:37:04,519
Speaker 2: Steelers and Ravens from Pittsburgh that will decide the final

2069
01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:08,240
Speaker 2: playoff team. In this playoff picture, the Eagles facing a

2070
01:37:08,280 --> 01:37:10,679
Speaker 2: second and ten down seven, will tell you how it fares.

2071
01:37:10,680 --> 01:37:14,400
Speaker 2: While the Lions and Bears tied up at sixteen a piece,

2072
01:37:14,400 --> 01:37:16,360
Speaker 2: We'll tell you how that one ends. In the Windy City.

2073
01:37:16,479 --> 01:37:18,280
Speaker 2: It's all next year on end Zone Radio on Fox

2074
01:37:18,320 --> 01:37:20,200
Speaker 2: Sports Radio.

2075
01:37:20,439 --> 01:37:23,200
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2076
01:37:23,800 --> 01:37:26,200
Speaker 2: It's en Zone Radio on Fox Sports Radio. He's the

2077
01:37:26,200 --> 01:37:28,639
Speaker 2: all pro carry roads. I'm Dan Byer. That was ninety

2078
01:37:28,640 --> 01:37:31,760
Speaker 2: seven point one in the Ticket and the Lions radio network.

2079
01:37:31,960 --> 01:37:34,080
Speaker 2: And let's be real, it was the season sweep of

2080
01:37:34,120 --> 01:37:36,679
Speaker 2: Ben Johnson that I think was so sweet for the Lions.

2081
01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:39,320
Speaker 2: They lose their offensive coordinator and while they don't go

2082
01:37:39,360 --> 01:37:41,639
Speaker 2: back to the playoffs, they did beat their former oc

2083
01:37:41,960 --> 01:37:45,400
Speaker 2: in both opportunities. Now, it could have meant something for

2084
01:37:45,439 --> 01:37:47,680
Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears, but the Eagles right now are down

2085
01:37:47,720 --> 01:37:50,200
Speaker 2: twenty four to seventeen to the Commanders. They have no

2086
01:37:50,240 --> 01:37:52,160
Speaker 2: time outs there at their own twenty one yard line

2087
01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:55,759
Speaker 2: and facing a fourth and eighteen. So unless Tanner McKee

2088
01:37:55,800 --> 01:38:01,080
Speaker 2: pulls something out of his backside, it's or I could

2089
01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:03,400
Speaker 2: have said top hat whatever. I guess I didn't have

2090
01:38:03,439 --> 01:38:06,439
Speaker 2: to go to that side, but it's an incomplete pass

2091
01:38:06,520 --> 01:38:09,840
Speaker 2: out of bounds. Commanders are gonna win twenty four to seventeen,

2092
01:38:10,360 --> 01:38:15,880
Speaker 2: so that locks in the NFC playoff picture Seahawks number one.

2093
01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:19,439
Speaker 2: Bears are the two seed. They will host Green Bay

2094
01:38:19,520 --> 01:38:23,320
Speaker 2: next weekend. The Eagles are the three seed. They will

2095
01:38:23,320 --> 01:38:26,760
Speaker 2: host San Francisco. Well, the Rams will go to Carolina

2096
01:38:26,880 --> 01:38:31,200
Speaker 2: to face the Panthers. That's what we have in the NFC,

2097
01:38:31,640 --> 01:38:36,120
Speaker 2: So right now it's Panthers Rams, and then the Eagles

2098
01:38:36,200 --> 01:38:38,719
Speaker 2: will be home to the forty nine ers Eagles Panthers, Rams,

2099
01:38:39,680 --> 01:38:43,120
Speaker 2: and then the Packers and Bears will play in Chicago. Gotcha,

2100
01:38:44,520 --> 01:38:47,840
Speaker 2: Bears and Packers will be fun, obviously. I hope everybody's full,

2101
01:38:48,320 --> 01:38:51,759
Speaker 2: full tilt and ready to go for For the Packers, obviously,

2102
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:54,720
Speaker 2: Parsons is out and that's that's a BIG's a that's

2103
01:38:54,760 --> 01:38:57,200
Speaker 2: a big loss, but it's gonna be fun. The funny

2104
01:38:57,200 --> 01:38:59,920
Speaker 2: thing is is, I don't know if the Bears want

2105
01:38:59,920 --> 01:39:04,320
Speaker 2: to to face Green Bay, something that we talked about,

2106
01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:08,080
Speaker 2: but the alternative wasn't much better, no, right, so you

2107
01:39:08,160 --> 01:39:09,640
Speaker 2: just kind of have to go with it. They end

2108
01:39:09,720 --> 01:39:13,040
Speaker 2: up losing today, and maybe that's concerning for as great

2109
01:39:13,080 --> 01:39:16,360
Speaker 2: as the Bears have been, and they are the NFC

2110
01:39:16,400 --> 01:39:19,760
Speaker 2: North champions, the last couple of weeks, it hasn't been

2111
01:39:19,840 --> 01:39:24,040
Speaker 2: all gravy. Now, last week they were a Kayleb Williams

2112
01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:28,080
Speaker 2: pass on fourth down from maybe beating the San Francisco

2113
01:39:28,160 --> 01:39:30,360
Speaker 2: forty nine ers. But what a difference a week makes

2114
01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:32,800
Speaker 2: for the Niners, who looked unstoppable on offense the last

2115
01:39:32,800 --> 01:39:35,840
Speaker 2: two weeks, and then go up and face the Seahawks.

2116
01:39:35,840 --> 01:39:38,439
Speaker 2: And not to be middle of the road guy, but

2117
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:43,720
Speaker 2: when you look at the NFC playoff picture, nobody's going

2118
01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:46,519
Speaker 2: to be able to have a real sense of who

2119
01:39:46,560 --> 01:39:49,680
Speaker 2: they like and who they don't like. And the Packers,

2120
01:39:49,840 --> 01:39:53,160
Speaker 2: who went in with Malik Willison almost knocked off the Bears,

2121
01:39:53,560 --> 01:39:55,400
Speaker 2: could just as well do it with a healthy Jordan

2122
01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:59,320
Speaker 2: Love in that scenario. And the Bears know a lot

2123
01:39:59,360 --> 01:40:01,240
Speaker 2: about the Packers, and the Packers know a lot about

2124
01:40:01,240 --> 01:40:03,400
Speaker 2: the Bears. But usually when you're the better team, you

2125
01:40:03,400 --> 01:40:05,360
Speaker 2: don't want that to be the case. So that game

2126
01:40:05,920 --> 01:40:08,840
Speaker 2: is not the gimme. We think that the Rams are

2127
01:40:08,840 --> 01:40:11,760
Speaker 2: gonna go to Carolina and beat the Panthers. However, there's

2128
01:40:11,800 --> 01:40:14,760
Speaker 2: just there's two things with that number One Actually there's

2129
01:40:14,800 --> 01:40:17,599
Speaker 2: three things with that. The Rams didn't look great for

2130
01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:20,680
Speaker 2: about a half of football today. Finally turned it on

2131
01:40:21,320 --> 01:40:23,840
Speaker 2: at the end against Arizona, but it wasn't like they

2132
01:40:23,920 --> 01:40:27,600
Speaker 2: ran away with that game, right. Number two, it is

2133
01:40:27,640 --> 01:40:30,639
Speaker 2: a road game across the country, and number three, Carolina

2134
01:40:30,680 --> 01:40:33,519
Speaker 2: beat the Rams earlier this season, So those things at

2135
01:40:33,600 --> 01:40:35,960
Speaker 2: least come into play where we think that automatically the

2136
01:40:36,040 --> 01:40:38,920
Speaker 2: Rams are going to advance, that may not necessarily be

2137
01:40:39,040 --> 01:40:40,200
Speaker 2: the case. Yeah, that's a tough one.

2138
01:40:40,280 --> 01:40:44,840
Speaker 3: It's that that West coast to East coast travel. Knowing

2139
01:40:44,880 --> 01:40:46,640
Speaker 3: how your team handled it, I think where they have

2140
01:40:46,720 --> 01:40:50,640
Speaker 3: an advantage in this situation in this playoff game is

2141
01:40:50,960 --> 01:40:52,760
Speaker 3: you said it, they played them earlier in the year

2142
01:40:53,040 --> 01:40:55,720
Speaker 3: and they went the day before to go there, to

2143
01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:59,000
Speaker 3: travel and just getting acclimated to that early start on

2144
01:40:59,040 --> 01:41:00,720
Speaker 3: the East coast is tough. But with it be in

2145
01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:03,479
Speaker 3: the playoff game, the time will be different. Obviously it

2146
01:41:03,520 --> 01:41:07,200
Speaker 3: won't be as early and you get to know, like, okay,

2147
01:41:07,240 --> 01:41:09,439
Speaker 3: we did this once, we went the day before.

2148
01:41:09,600 --> 01:41:11,320
Speaker 2: That wasn't good for our team. We started slow.

2149
01:41:11,360 --> 01:41:13,559
Speaker 3: If you watched that game, it was you can tell

2150
01:41:13,680 --> 01:41:17,519
Speaker 3: they were still they weren't up yet and then so

2151
01:41:17,640 --> 01:41:20,560
Speaker 3: you got that situation. So now you have that that

2152
01:41:21,080 --> 01:41:23,200
Speaker 3: answer to the test, so to speak. Going there, they'll

2153
01:41:23,240 --> 01:41:25,960
Speaker 3: be there early, they'll have a later start time, and

2154
01:41:26,479 --> 01:41:29,080
Speaker 3: they should win that game, but you never know.

2155
01:41:29,360 --> 01:41:31,759
Speaker 2: And then you talk about this Bears and Bears and Packers.

2156
01:41:31,800 --> 01:41:32,559
Speaker 2: It's always tough.

2157
01:41:32,439 --> 01:41:34,360
Speaker 3: When you play a division team again in the playoffs.

2158
01:41:34,400 --> 01:41:36,599
Speaker 3: It happened to me my second year in the league.

2159
01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:38,479
Speaker 3: We were playing New England. We split during the regular

2160
01:41:38,479 --> 01:41:40,880
Speaker 3: season and we had to go up to Foxborough to

2161
01:41:40,880 --> 01:41:43,360
Speaker 3: play them in at first that wildcard game in the playoffs,

2162
01:41:43,400 --> 01:41:47,240
Speaker 3: and in the games prior that year, especially the second

2163
01:41:47,240 --> 01:41:49,960
Speaker 3: one up in Foxboro, which we beat them. In Foxborough,

2164
01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:54,200
Speaker 3: we showed some of our stuff that we wanted to save,

2165
01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:56,479
Speaker 3: you know, for later on, and we had to get

2166
01:41:56,520 --> 01:41:58,719
Speaker 3: to win. And so you show yourself and you tip

2167
01:41:58,760 --> 01:42:00,200
Speaker 3: your hand. I told you a little bit of out

2168
01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:02,920
Speaker 3: it where that unique for Mason where we were all

2169
01:42:02,960 --> 01:42:05,760
Speaker 3: on the line and Tom Brady had no idea who

2170
01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:07,920
Speaker 3: to block, and we got a few pressures in sacks

2171
01:42:07,920 --> 01:42:10,320
Speaker 3: and hits on him and affected him.

2172
01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:12,840
Speaker 2: That playoff game. He was getting rid of the ball

2173
01:42:12,920 --> 01:42:16,639
Speaker 2: so fast. So you know, it's not an advantage anymore.

2174
01:42:16,720 --> 01:42:17,920
Speaker 2: So that's what you get when you play at the

2175
01:42:18,000 --> 01:42:19,960
Speaker 2: Vision team as well in the playoffs. Yeah, there's only

2176
01:42:20,040 --> 01:42:23,479
Speaker 2: there's so many, so many plays and coveraging and stuff

2177
01:42:23,479 --> 01:42:25,240
Speaker 2: that you can do to try to fool someone. And

2178
01:42:25,400 --> 01:42:27,800
Speaker 2: that's a that's an interesting teller right there, that you

2179
01:42:27,840 --> 01:42:30,600
Speaker 2: guys needed it in the regular season. I had to

2180
01:42:30,640 --> 01:42:35,960
Speaker 2: take a loan from the bank, and that happens. It

2181
01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:38,720
Speaker 2: does happen. The Broncos are thirty three seconds away from

2182
01:42:38,720 --> 01:42:40,800
Speaker 2: wrapping up the number one seed in the AFC. So

2183
01:42:40,840 --> 01:42:43,720
Speaker 2: we'll get to the AFC playoff picture in just a bit.

2184
01:42:44,120 --> 01:42:48,679
Speaker 2: What do you think? In no disrespect to Carolina and

2185
01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:52,120
Speaker 2: the Rams, but the marquee games are Green Bay in

2186
01:42:52,200 --> 01:42:56,639
Speaker 2: Chicago and San Francisco and Philadelphia for sure? Which one

2187
01:42:56,680 --> 01:42:59,160
Speaker 2: of those two intrigues you the most?

2188
01:43:00,240 --> 01:43:03,000
Speaker 3: The forty nine ers Eagles, for sure. The Eagles are

2189
01:43:03,000 --> 01:43:05,120
Speaker 3: the most talented team. I mean when you look at

2190
01:43:05,160 --> 01:43:08,040
Speaker 3: them from a roster standpoint, we think when we look

2191
01:43:08,080 --> 01:43:10,120
Speaker 3: at it, and then you look at the forty nine

2192
01:43:10,160 --> 01:43:12,519
Speaker 3: Ers this year and people want to talk about the

2193
01:43:12,520 --> 01:43:15,240
Speaker 3: easy schedule, all these different things or whatever the reason

2194
01:43:15,320 --> 01:43:17,559
Speaker 3: they are where they are. I don't really buy into

2195
01:43:17,600 --> 01:43:20,200
Speaker 3: the easy schedule thing because obviously, as a player, I

2196
01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:22,120
Speaker 3: know all those games are hard and you have to

2197
01:43:22,160 --> 01:43:24,760
Speaker 3: beat those teams. And we've seen plenty of teams that

2198
01:43:24,840 --> 01:43:27,400
Speaker 3: are favored not win those games, so they handle up business.

2199
01:43:28,400 --> 01:43:30,599
Speaker 3: The thing about that game that's interesting for me though,

2200
01:43:30,720 --> 01:43:35,360
Speaker 3: is I don't think teams fear of Philadelphia this year,

2201
01:43:35,360 --> 01:43:37,800
Speaker 3: and so going forty nine Ers going to Philadelphia to

2202
01:43:37,960 --> 01:43:40,519
Speaker 3: play a playoff game, the way their offense have been

2203
01:43:40,560 --> 01:43:43,040
Speaker 3: playing prior to last week, they think they can beat anybody.

2204
01:43:43,080 --> 01:43:45,640
Speaker 3: So going there and having a team in Philadelphia that

2205
01:43:45,720 --> 01:43:48,160
Speaker 3: can't score a lot of points, which is weird.

2206
01:43:48,200 --> 01:43:49,800
Speaker 2: I think they will feel like they should win that game.

2207
01:43:49,840 --> 01:43:51,519
Speaker 2: It's interesting because I look at it the other show

2208
01:43:51,560 --> 01:43:54,800
Speaker 2: that forty nine Ers can't get pressure on anybody. Yeah,

2209
01:43:55,040 --> 01:43:57,800
Speaker 2: and so if you're going to make it easier on

2210
01:43:57,920 --> 01:44:02,680
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, that may help. Now. I we didn't get

2211
01:44:02,680 --> 01:44:05,160
Speaker 2: a look at Jalen Hurts today because Tanner McKee ended

2212
01:44:05,240 --> 01:44:07,479
Speaker 2: up playing. Maybe the week off ends up helping them,

2213
01:44:08,000 --> 01:44:10,920
Speaker 2: But I just wonder if San Francisco can pressure them enough.

2214
01:44:10,920 --> 01:44:14,800
Speaker 2: And Philadelphia's offensive line has been dealing with injuries throughout

2215
01:44:14,840 --> 01:44:17,639
Speaker 2: the season, it probably wasn't as or isn't as good

2216
01:44:17,640 --> 01:44:20,519
Speaker 2: as it was a couple of years ago, but still

2217
01:44:20,560 --> 01:44:23,439
Speaker 2: they should have a formidle front, formidable front if everyone

2218
01:44:23,479 --> 01:44:25,880
Speaker 2: is healthy and the forty nine ers just really can't

2219
01:44:25,880 --> 01:44:28,400
Speaker 2: get after the quarterback, and I think that's that's gonna help.

2220
01:44:28,439 --> 01:44:29,840
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, No, it might.

2221
01:44:30,040 --> 01:44:33,960
Speaker 3: I just don't know if if Philadelphia executes well enough

2222
01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:37,200
Speaker 3: to you know, like in years past, this will be

2223
01:44:37,200 --> 01:44:39,160
Speaker 3: an ideal prime s's wasting for them, but I don't

2224
01:44:39,160 --> 01:44:41,120
Speaker 3: know if that's the year for them this year so far.

2225
01:44:41,280 --> 01:44:43,360
Speaker 2: I'm really curious on how this is going to play

2226
01:44:43,360 --> 01:44:46,400
Speaker 2: out TV wise, because to me, it feels like it

2227
01:44:46,439 --> 01:44:49,719
Speaker 2: really feels like Bears Packers is the Sunday night NBC game.

2228
01:44:50,720 --> 01:44:54,400
Speaker 2: And I usually right on this too. I'm not that's

2229
01:44:54,439 --> 01:44:56,719
Speaker 2: the thing, but I feel like the Niners and egos

2230
01:44:56,760 --> 01:44:59,320
Speaker 2: is it's such a Fox game that you would want

2231
01:44:59,360 --> 01:45:01,760
Speaker 2: on the Monday afternoon on Fox if you have an

2232
01:45:01,760 --> 01:45:04,559
Speaker 2: opportunity to have that one. I'm curious on what the

2233
01:45:04,560 --> 01:45:06,720
Speaker 2: Monday night game is going to be, and it may

2234
01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:11,800
Speaker 2: be Houston and Pittsburgh, I or Baltimore depending on what happens,

2235
01:45:11,960 --> 01:45:14,120
Speaker 2: because you would allow at least the Ravens and Steelers

2236
01:45:14,160 --> 01:45:17,000
Speaker 2: to maybe get a little bit more rest, or Ravens

2237
01:45:17,080 --> 01:45:19,240
Speaker 2: or Steelers get a bit more rest because of playing

2238
01:45:19,280 --> 01:45:22,200
Speaker 2: on Sunday night. Yeah, but that has yet to be determined.

2239
01:45:22,240 --> 01:45:25,200
Speaker 2: The only game going on right now is the Chargers

2240
01:45:25,280 --> 01:45:28,599
Speaker 2: and Broncos. With eighteen seconds left, Denvers called the timeout

2241
01:45:28,640 --> 01:45:31,599
Speaker 2: on a fourth down by the Chargers. But the Broncos

2242
01:45:31,640 --> 01:45:34,360
Speaker 2: will be the one seed, Jacksonville will be the two seed,

2243
01:45:34,600 --> 01:45:37,960
Speaker 2: and excuse me, New England will be the two seed.

2244
01:45:38,200 --> 01:45:40,679
Speaker 2: Jacksonville will be the three seed, with Denver the number

2245
01:45:40,680 --> 01:45:43,120
Speaker 2: one overall seed and the bye. All right, for a

2246
01:45:43,160 --> 01:45:45,679
Speaker 2: recap of all the scores and all the details of

2247
01:45:45,760 --> 01:45:48,640
Speaker 2: what has happened on this crazy week eighteen, let's go

2248
01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:51,160
Speaker 2: over to the news desk, Monzi milanials. We'll give us

2249
01:45:51,520 --> 01:45:53,720
Speaker 2: the latest of what's happening. We'll also take a look

2250
01:45:53,760 --> 01:45:56,320
Speaker 2: at the other end of the NFL. Who sits where

2251
01:45:56,320 --> 01:45:59,320
Speaker 2: when it comes to the NFL Draft, Monzi, the floor's yours.

2252
01:45:59,600 --> 01:46:02,240
Speaker 11: All right, Yeah, you just mentioned there's one game going

2253
01:46:02,280 --> 01:46:04,000
Speaker 11: on right now, but pretty much this is going to

2254
01:46:04,080 --> 01:46:07,439
Speaker 11: secure the Broncos as the number one seed with the

2255
01:46:07,479 --> 01:46:09,679
Speaker 11: buy right now, they are up on the Chargers nineteen

2256
01:46:09,720 --> 01:46:11,920
Speaker 11: to three. But down to the final plays here for

2257
01:46:12,479 --> 01:46:14,800
Speaker 11: LA and yeah, the Patriots are going to be the

2258
01:46:14,800 --> 01:46:17,639
Speaker 11: second seed. They're going to be hosting the Chargers probably,

2259
01:46:17,840 --> 01:46:20,040
Speaker 11: I don't think that's gonna change anymore. Jaguars will be

2260
01:46:20,080 --> 01:46:22,519
Speaker 11: the third seed, hosting the Bills as a sixth seed.

2261
01:46:22,760 --> 01:46:24,360
Speaker 11: The Texans are going to be the fifth seed, and

2262
01:46:24,400 --> 01:46:26,840
Speaker 11: we're waiting for that four seed between the Ravens and

2263
01:46:26,920 --> 01:46:30,000
Speaker 11: the Steelers. The Rams did outscore the Cardinals thirty seven

2264
01:46:30,040 --> 01:46:32,760
Speaker 11: to twenty. LA will be the fifth seed in the

2265
01:46:32,880 --> 01:46:36,719
Speaker 11: nfced the Patriots rolled past the Dolphins thirty eight to ten. There,

2266
01:46:36,880 --> 01:46:39,639
Speaker 11: Commanders held on twenty four to seventeen against the Eagles.

2267
01:46:39,880 --> 01:46:42,120
Speaker 10: With that, Eagles are going to be the third seed.

2268
01:46:42,120 --> 01:46:44,799
Speaker 11: They could have been the second seed the minute Chicago loss,

2269
01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:46,880
Speaker 11: but they didn't have any of their starters out there

2270
01:46:47,280 --> 01:46:48,880
Speaker 11: because the Lions walked it off with the field goal

2271
01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:51,799
Speaker 11: to beat the Bears nineteen to sixteen. So Chicago secures

2272
01:46:51,960 --> 01:46:54,880
Speaker 11: the number two seed in the NFC, hosting the Packers,

2273
01:46:54,920 --> 01:46:58,240
Speaker 11: as you guys are just discussing. But the Raiders ended

2274
01:46:58,280 --> 01:47:00,439
Speaker 11: on a high note, guys. They beat the Chiefs fourteen

2275
01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:03,880
Speaker 11: to twelve. And Daniel Carlson hit a career high sixty

2276
01:47:03,960 --> 01:47:08,320
Speaker 11: yard field goal to end the game. So another sixty yarder, guys,

2277
01:47:08,400 --> 01:47:09,479
Speaker 11: this is bad.

2278
01:47:09,560 --> 01:47:12,040
Speaker 2: They kick outside, That's what I'm saying.

2279
01:47:12,439 --> 01:47:14,840
Speaker 11: The one that Cam Little did earlier today for the

2280
01:47:14,880 --> 01:47:16,479
Speaker 11: Jaguars that was sixty seven.

2281
01:47:16,320 --> 01:47:17,000
Speaker 10: Hit the net.

2282
01:47:17,920 --> 01:47:20,080
Speaker 11: Hit the net, guys like it's going to be a

2283
01:47:20,120 --> 01:47:22,200
Speaker 11: seventy yard field goal before we know it. And then

2284
01:47:22,360 --> 01:47:24,439
Speaker 11: what's the point. Then we gotta do what Dan says,

2285
01:47:24,600 --> 01:47:27,040
Speaker 11: We have to change the rules. And you can tell well,

2286
01:47:27,080 --> 01:47:29,120
Speaker 11: you'll explain it after. Let me let me wrap this

2287
01:47:29,200 --> 01:47:32,080
Speaker 11: up here. Yes, yes, the Bills crushed the Jets thirty

2288
01:47:32,120 --> 01:47:35,839
Speaker 11: five to eight. The Jets will get the second overall

2289
01:47:35,880 --> 01:47:39,120
Speaker 11: pick in the upcoming draft. No interceptions, we've come from that. Also,

2290
01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:40,680
Speaker 11: Paul Skenes and Levy dunnre.

2291
01:47:40,439 --> 01:47:41,679
Speaker 10: At the game. How fun? Okay?

2292
01:47:41,800 --> 01:47:44,479
Speaker 11: What happened earlier today? The Vikings beat the Packers sixteen

2293
01:47:44,520 --> 01:47:47,320
Speaker 11: to three. Giants outscored the Cowboys thirty four to seventeen,

2294
01:47:47,360 --> 01:47:49,040
Speaker 11: which is how the Raiders are going to have the

2295
01:47:49,120 --> 01:47:51,720
Speaker 11: number one pick in the upcoming draft. The Browns walked

2296
01:47:51,760 --> 01:47:53,479
Speaker 11: it off with the field goal to defeat the Bengals

2297
01:47:53,520 --> 01:47:56,640
Speaker 11: twenty to eighteen. Miles Garrett was able to break the

2298
01:47:56,760 --> 01:47:59,559
Speaker 11: NFL single season sack record in this game, ending with

2299
01:47:59,600 --> 01:48:02,400
Speaker 11: twenty three. The Texans got a scoop and score in

2300
01:48:02,439 --> 01:48:05,000
Speaker 11: the final seconds to beat the Colts thirty eight to thirty.

2301
01:48:05,200 --> 01:48:07,799
Speaker 11: And it was already reported that Colts GM Chris Ballard

2302
01:48:07,800 --> 01:48:10,839
Speaker 11: and head coach San Stiking will return for next season.

2303
01:48:11,120 --> 01:48:13,360
Speaker 11: The Panthers have won the NFC South for the first

2304
01:48:13,360 --> 01:48:16,000
Speaker 11: time since twenty fifteen. They have the Falcons to thank

2305
01:48:16,040 --> 01:48:19,000
Speaker 11: for that because they defeated the Saints nineteen to seventeen.

2306
01:48:19,240 --> 01:48:21,120
Speaker 10: And the Jaguars are hot right now.

2307
01:48:21,160 --> 01:48:21,439
Speaker 1: Guys.

2308
01:48:21,439 --> 01:48:23,960
Speaker 11: They've won eight in a row. They have won the

2309
01:48:23,960 --> 01:48:27,439
Speaker 11: AFC South. They crushed the Titans forty one to seven.

2310
01:48:27,479 --> 01:48:29,800
Speaker 11: Cam Little hit a sixty seven yard field goal. And

2311
01:48:29,800 --> 01:48:35,000
Speaker 11: there's a video of Trevor Lawrence being gifted custom diamond grills.

2312
01:48:35,200 --> 01:48:38,719
Speaker 11: Oh no, yes, because I guess there's a meme or something.

2313
01:48:38,760 --> 01:48:41,920
Speaker 11: I don't know, but there's something going on on social media,

2314
01:48:41,960 --> 01:48:44,240
Speaker 11: I guess. So they gave him. They said, thank you,

2315
01:48:44,479 --> 01:48:46,200
Speaker 11: here's some custom diamond grills.

2316
01:48:46,240 --> 01:48:48,439
Speaker 2: Say he's going to Jakes the playoffs for that.

2317
01:48:48,600 --> 01:48:50,280
Speaker 10: He had asked for it, just gave it.

2318
01:48:50,320 --> 01:48:50,679
Speaker 13: To him.

2319
01:48:50,960 --> 01:48:53,880
Speaker 2: He says, returnender, return it back to the team.

2320
01:48:53,960 --> 01:48:55,880
Speaker 10: No, the team gave it to him as a thank you,

2321
01:48:56,080 --> 01:48:56,960
Speaker 10: So you're saying that's a no.

2322
01:48:57,080 --> 01:48:57,240
Speaker 1: Boy.

2323
01:48:57,720 --> 01:49:00,280
Speaker 2: My favorite Trevor Lawrence Meme was the girl who looked

2324
01:49:00,320 --> 01:49:03,440
Speaker 2: exactly like him, exactly.

2325
01:49:03,840 --> 01:49:05,559
Speaker 10: Exactly Who was the girl?

2326
01:49:05,720 --> 01:49:08,360
Speaker 2: I don't know. And she would have the headband on

2327
01:49:08,479 --> 01:49:11,439
Speaker 2: for Clemson and she'd give like these yes, like wide

2328
01:49:11,439 --> 01:49:14,160
Speaker 2: eye looks, and it was so hilarious.

2329
01:49:14,560 --> 01:49:16,960
Speaker 10: He is not wrong. It's so good. You should look

2330
01:49:16,960 --> 01:49:17,240
Speaker 10: it up.

2331
01:49:17,360 --> 01:49:20,000
Speaker 11: Look up And in case you missed it, the rich

2332
01:49:20,040 --> 01:49:22,719
Speaker 11: get richard in college football, As Carrie said, former TCU

2333
01:49:22,800 --> 01:49:23,839
Speaker 11: quarterback Josh Hoover.

2334
01:49:23,720 --> 01:49:28,920
Speaker 10: Has committed to Indiana. Back to you guys, thank you

2335
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:32,479
Speaker 10: very much. Yes, oh wait, let me tell you one thing. Sorry,

2336
01:49:32,520 --> 01:49:34,320
Speaker 10: you know what we were talking Sorry, great job.

2337
01:49:34,560 --> 01:49:36,120
Speaker 11: You know how we were talking about just like the

2338
01:49:36,640 --> 01:49:39,720
Speaker 11: final stats of the season and who's winning and all that. Yeah,

2339
01:49:39,800 --> 01:49:43,479
Speaker 11: so the reception stat some of these things don't you

2340
01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:45,920
Speaker 11: know add up until it's like way after the game.

2341
01:49:46,320 --> 01:49:49,160
Speaker 11: Jamar Chase technically ended the season with one hundred and

2342
01:49:49,160 --> 01:49:50,280
Speaker 11: twenty five receptions.

2343
01:49:50,800 --> 01:49:52,240
Speaker 10: But you were right, Carrie.

2344
01:49:52,320 --> 01:49:56,240
Speaker 11: Pukanakua did not play in the second half, Trey McBride

2345
01:49:56,280 --> 01:50:00,439
Speaker 11: got seven receptions. So Trey McBride had one nine add

2346
01:50:00,520 --> 01:50:06,160
Speaker 11: the seven surpassed Jamar Chase. You were right, though, So

2347
01:50:06,240 --> 01:50:07,519
Speaker 11: that's that's what I wanted to say.

2348
01:50:07,560 --> 01:50:12,559
Speaker 2: Okay, they should have stopped the game. Called up, Jamar Chase.

2349
01:50:15,520 --> 01:50:19,360
Speaker 2: You lost, you lost, you lost time out out of

2350
01:50:19,360 --> 01:50:23,400
Speaker 2: the field. They stopped this game because Jamar Chase hates

2351
01:50:23,439 --> 01:50:27,040
Speaker 2: game stoppages, even in games he's not playing in. Oh

2352
01:50:27,120 --> 01:50:29,719
Speaker 2: my goodness, did you think Joe Burrow gave Miles Garrett

2353
01:50:29,720 --> 01:50:32,920
Speaker 2: that sack? He didn't. He didn't fight it.

2354
01:50:34,280 --> 01:50:38,040
Speaker 3: He did not, So I mean sure, but I mean

2355
01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:39,880
Speaker 3: Males Garret got a great jump on the play. He's

2356
01:50:39,880 --> 01:50:42,519
Speaker 3: probably going to make the play anyway, and you know

2357
01:50:42,800 --> 01:50:44,920
Speaker 3: he just politely went down.

2358
01:50:44,760 --> 01:50:49,519
Speaker 2: With yeah, I understand that. Yeah, the farv one was

2359
01:50:51,200 --> 01:50:55,160
Speaker 2: could I think a similar sort of explanation could have

2360
01:50:55,240 --> 01:50:58,120
Speaker 2: been made. Far giving no effort to get rid of

2361
01:50:58,200 --> 01:51:00,840
Speaker 2: the ball, just kind of turtling down. This is how

2362
01:51:00,840 --> 01:51:06,200
Speaker 2: the draft order will look. Raiders pick one, Jets pick two,

2363
01:51:06,680 --> 01:51:11,479
Speaker 2: Cardinals pick three, Titans fourth, Giants pick fifth. They drop

2364
01:51:11,520 --> 01:51:13,120
Speaker 2: all the way to fifth with that win today. If

2365
01:51:13,120 --> 01:51:15,439
Speaker 2: the Giants would have lost they would have picked second.

2366
01:51:16,280 --> 01:51:22,320
Speaker 3: What are they doing? I know, right, my goodness, Like

2367
01:51:22,400 --> 01:51:24,439
Speaker 3: that's it. That's when it becomes like you don't even

2368
01:51:24,479 --> 01:51:27,439
Speaker 3: know how to lose correctly. I mean, obviously they're trying

2369
01:51:27,439 --> 01:51:29,080
Speaker 3: to I know they're trying to win it. And it's

2370
01:51:29,080 --> 01:51:32,320
Speaker 3: an interim coach, I get it, But come on, man.

2371
01:51:32,320 --> 01:51:36,280
Speaker 2: So that the Raiders need a quarterback, the Jets need

2372
01:51:36,320 --> 01:51:41,360
Speaker 2: a quarterback, the Cardinals may need a quarterback, Tennessee doesn't,

2373
01:51:41,400 --> 01:51:43,840
Speaker 2: and I would say that the Giants don't, and then

2374
01:51:43,880 --> 01:51:46,120
Speaker 2: Cleveland is next at sixth. I don't think that the

2375
01:51:46,160 --> 01:51:48,519
Speaker 2: Browns are going to be drafting quarterback. Could be wrong,

2376
01:51:48,640 --> 01:51:51,280
Speaker 2: but I don't think that they will. But the top

2377
01:51:51,360 --> 01:51:54,360
Speaker 2: three picks, and we don't know if there's three quarterbacks

2378
01:51:54,760 --> 01:51:57,439
Speaker 2: good enough in this draft to go that high. So

2379
01:51:57,479 --> 01:52:01,479
Speaker 2: it'll be interesting to see. These five six teams will

2380
01:52:01,520 --> 01:52:05,000
Speaker 2: end up becoming the conversation in the spring. But that's

2381
01:52:05,040 --> 01:52:07,040
Speaker 2: how the draft will look. And I know fans of

2382
01:52:07,040 --> 01:52:10,120
Speaker 2: those teams are doing mock drafts right now trying to

2383
01:52:10,240 --> 01:52:12,920
Speaker 2: sort out all of the picks that they they will have.

2384
01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:16,439
Speaker 2: The Jets, by the way, in that deal for Sauce Gardener,

2385
01:52:16,520 --> 01:52:19,840
Speaker 2: remember when they yes, that ends up being the fifteenth

2386
01:52:19,920 --> 01:52:24,639
Speaker 2: overall PICKO. So that's a good sauce. Yeah, is good sauce.

2387
01:52:24,680 --> 01:52:27,000
Speaker 2: It's a good pick for the Jets as well, the

2388
01:52:27,000 --> 01:52:29,120
Speaker 2: Colts thinking they're going to be picking twenty eight, twenty

2389
01:52:29,200 --> 01:52:34,920
Speaker 2: nine maybe and seventeen. That's fifteen. Yeah the Jets. God

2390
01:52:34,960 --> 01:52:37,599
Speaker 2: got you. Yeah, that's the Jets. That's the Colts pick

2391
01:52:37,680 --> 01:52:39,840
Speaker 2: that the Jets got in the Sauce Garden trade. Wow.

2392
01:52:39,840 --> 01:52:42,439
Speaker 3: Before we get out on the on the other side, Dan,

2393
01:52:42,680 --> 01:52:45,240
Speaker 3: we talk about Miles Garrett and breaking the record today,

2394
01:52:45,280 --> 01:52:49,040
Speaker 3: right the twenty three sacks. Do you when does that

2395
01:52:49,080 --> 01:52:50,880
Speaker 3: become like a little bit of an asteris And I'm

2396
01:52:50,920 --> 01:52:56,280
Speaker 3: not trying to cause any any disruption over what this represents.

2397
01:52:56,320 --> 01:52:56,760
Speaker 2: It's great.

2398
01:52:56,800 --> 01:52:59,479
Speaker 3: I think it's it is a valid stat and a

2399
01:52:59,560 --> 01:53:03,360
Speaker 3: valid a valid win by Miles Garrett breaking the record.

2400
01:53:04,240 --> 01:53:06,439
Speaker 3: But those other guys did it in less games like

2401
01:53:06,520 --> 01:53:08,280
Speaker 3: straight hand and sixteen And then you think about like

2402
01:53:08,320 --> 01:53:10,840
Speaker 3: Reggie White at the time, Yeah, twenty one sacks and

2403
01:53:10,920 --> 01:53:11,519
Speaker 3: twelve games.

2404
01:53:11,600 --> 01:53:13,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean, Like it's insane. So

2405
01:53:13,320 --> 01:53:14,559
Speaker 2: like when you think about that, what do you think

2406
01:53:14,600 --> 01:53:17,080
Speaker 2: about and in a league that doesn't pass the ball

2407
01:53:17,120 --> 01:53:20,120
Speaker 2: as much as it does now, So those numbers are crazy.

2408
01:53:20,960 --> 01:53:22,960
Speaker 2: I think that you really do have to have perspective

2409
01:53:22,960 --> 01:53:25,040
Speaker 2: when you're looking at those numbers. I do feel that

2410
01:53:25,120 --> 01:53:29,240
Speaker 2: sixteen games are that plays into it. So when we're

2411
01:53:29,240 --> 01:53:32,720
Speaker 2: talking about receiving marks as well, it's just it's not

2412
01:53:32,840 --> 01:53:36,600
Speaker 2: the same the rushing record Eric Dickerson's and there was

2413
01:53:36,640 --> 01:53:39,280
Speaker 2: a lot of controversy over that because of Oj Simpsons

2414
01:53:39,280 --> 01:53:42,479
Speaker 2: was in fourteen games. Yep, so that's nothing new to it.

2415
01:53:42,880 --> 01:53:45,479
Speaker 2: I feel that the sixteen game is the real record,

2416
01:53:45,479 --> 01:53:47,479
Speaker 2: and if you could do it in sixteen games, it's yours.

2417
01:53:47,840 --> 01:53:49,600
Speaker 2: I just think a lot of the passing records, and

2418
01:53:49,640 --> 01:53:54,000
Speaker 2: that would include sacks are inflated because of how much

2419
01:53:54,040 --> 01:53:56,719
Speaker 2: teams throw the football now exactly, so it's a completely

2420
01:53:56,760 --> 01:53:59,360
Speaker 2: different game. And the late Deacon Jones is like count

2421
01:53:59,400 --> 01:54:02,280
Speaker 2: my sacks, you know, I'm the ones. Before nineteen seventy two,

2422
01:54:02,720 --> 01:54:07,000
Speaker 2: I started making a stat, sax a stat, He's carry roads.
