1 00:00:04,404 --> 00:00:07,244 Speaker 1: Ten Takes is a production of the NFL in partnership 2 00:00:07,284 --> 00:00:09,044 Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio. 3 00:00:16,404 --> 00:00:17,044 Speaker 2: Ten Takes. 4 00:00:17,244 --> 00:00:19,964 Speaker 1: Let's roll ten minutes on the clock ten takes to 5 00:00:20,044 --> 00:00:23,164 Speaker 1: deliver in those ten minutes no fat on this episode. 6 00:00:23,564 --> 00:00:28,964 Speaker 2: Start the clock. Take number one. That was the best 7 00:00:29,084 --> 00:00:32,284 Speaker 2: New England Patriots win in three years, maybe four years. 8 00:00:32,844 --> 00:00:35,284 Speaker 1: They just went into Buffalo on their special night with 9 00:00:35,324 --> 00:00:38,204 Speaker 1: their white uniforms and their white out in the crowd, 10 00:00:38,204 --> 00:00:40,404 Speaker 1: and that white out was terrible for Buffalo is like 11 00:00:40,484 --> 00:00:42,244 Speaker 1: worse than the one Penn State does. And they had 12 00:00:42,244 --> 00:00:45,684 Speaker 1: a horrible weekend. Two New England goes in there and 13 00:00:45,764 --> 00:00:48,364 Speaker 1: beats them and beats them up, and they do all 14 00:00:48,404 --> 00:00:51,244 Speaker 1: the things that the Buffalo Bills don't do. Buffalo Bills 15 00:00:51,244 --> 00:00:53,364 Speaker 1: don't score fewer than thirty points. They only had twenty. 16 00:00:53,444 --> 00:00:55,124 Speaker 1: They don't lose at home. They lost at home. They 17 00:00:55,124 --> 00:00:57,164 Speaker 1: don't lose the turnover battles. Do you understand the Buffalo 18 00:00:57,204 --> 00:00:59,804 Speaker 1: Bills were riding the longest streak of winning the turnover 19 00:00:59,844 --> 00:01:04,924 Speaker 1: battle in NFL history, like back during the Steve NFL 20 00:01:05,004 --> 00:01:07,364 Speaker 1: Films days, you can't find anyone who is doing it better. 21 00:01:07,524 --> 00:01:09,884 Speaker 1: And they just lost it to a second year quarterback 22 00:01:10,124 --> 00:01:12,644 Speaker 1: and a new head coach. That was the best Patriots 23 00:01:12,684 --> 00:01:15,244 Speaker 1: win in years. The fact that they can go in 24 00:01:15,284 --> 00:01:16,964 Speaker 1: there and beat them, the fact that they can let 25 00:01:17,044 --> 00:01:19,204 Speaker 1: make Josh Allen look pissed off an ornery like you 26 00:01:19,244 --> 00:01:21,484 Speaker 1: look the whole night. Josh Allen used his first team 27 00:01:21,524 --> 00:01:24,764 Speaker 1: All Pro body language. He's like a giant labrador out there. 28 00:01:24,924 --> 00:01:28,364 Speaker 1: He's always happy. He's always hopping around and smiling and winking. 29 00:01:28,484 --> 00:01:31,564 Speaker 1: He's so likable. He was pissed last night. He's exchanging 30 00:01:31,684 --> 00:01:33,884 Speaker 1: f bombs with Patriots. You can see it. That was 31 00:01:33,924 --> 00:01:36,844 Speaker 1: the Patriots doing that to him. And listen, all Buffalo's 32 00:01:36,844 --> 00:01:38,604 Speaker 1: goals are in front. I'm not saying there's seasons over, 33 00:01:38,764 --> 00:01:40,724 Speaker 1: but that was incredible. What New England did last night 34 00:01:40,844 --> 00:01:42,284 Speaker 1: best winning at least a few years. 35 00:01:42,484 --> 00:01:43,164 Speaker 2: Take number two. 36 00:01:43,164 --> 00:01:45,564 Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs just put on a clinic of how to 37 00:01:45,604 --> 00:01:47,884 Speaker 1: go back against your old team. If you are a 38 00:01:47,924 --> 00:01:50,084 Speaker 1: player right now in the NFL who may have to 39 00:01:50,084 --> 00:01:53,404 Speaker 1: face your current team someday. Specifically, maybe if you're a 40 00:01:53,444 --> 00:01:55,564 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver and there's a good chance you 41 00:01:55,564 --> 00:01:59,084 Speaker 1: won't be on your current team someday. Watch Week five 42 00:01:59,484 --> 00:02:01,884 Speaker 1: stiff On Diggs returning to Buffalo. Not only does he 43 00:02:01,924 --> 00:02:04,084 Speaker 1: have ten catches and was the best player in the game. 44 00:02:04,684 --> 00:02:08,644 Speaker 1: Everything he did was grace and class and friendly and 45 00:02:08,804 --> 00:02:12,244 Speaker 1: fun in spite of Bill's fans kind of wanting to 46 00:02:12,324 --> 00:02:15,604 Speaker 1: boo him. His pregame interview with Melissa Stark, his production 47 00:02:15,724 --> 00:02:18,404 Speaker 1: meetings with the crew, his postgame interview. I love this 48 00:02:18,524 --> 00:02:20,564 Speaker 1: fan base, I love this town. He even went so 49 00:02:20,684 --> 00:02:23,204 Speaker 1: far as to get in and talk about the meme 50 00:02:23,324 --> 00:02:25,644 Speaker 1: photo of when Diggs was on the Texans looking side 51 00:02:25,684 --> 00:02:27,724 Speaker 1: eye at Allen. He's like, no, that was just a 52 00:02:27,804 --> 00:02:29,764 Speaker 1: bad moment, tough frame. They caught us, and I was 53 00:02:29,764 --> 00:02:32,524 Speaker 1: really looking at him fondly. It was just so likable 54 00:02:32,524 --> 00:02:34,644 Speaker 1: and so good and everything Stefan Diggs was when he 55 00:02:34,684 --> 00:02:37,164 Speaker 1: came into the league. That is how you go against 56 00:02:37,204 --> 00:02:39,604 Speaker 1: your old team. Take notes on a AJ Brown when 57 00:02:39,604 --> 00:02:42,524 Speaker 1: you're doing it next year. Take number three. Bow Knicks, 58 00:02:42,524 --> 00:02:45,724 Speaker 1: I think is the most pivotal player in the AFC. 59 00:02:46,204 --> 00:02:50,044 Speaker 1: Denver beats Philadelphia yesterday. Whatever Bonnicks is going to be 60 00:02:50,164 --> 00:02:52,244 Speaker 1: is going to determine a lot of things. Because Denver 61 00:02:52,284 --> 00:02:54,084 Speaker 1: has the defense and they have the coach, They're going 62 00:02:54,084 --> 00:02:57,084 Speaker 1: to matter. I don't know yet if they have the quarterback. 63 00:02:57,524 --> 00:02:59,604 Speaker 2: If they do, they can win the super Bowl this year. 64 00:02:59,684 --> 00:03:01,804 Speaker 2: I said it. Joe Burrow is in the super Bowl 65 00:03:01,844 --> 00:03:02,524 Speaker 2: in his second year. 66 00:03:02,604 --> 00:03:04,764 Speaker 1: Bon Nicks can be in the super Bowl his second 67 00:03:04,804 --> 00:03:06,684 Speaker 1: year if he plays like he did in the second 68 00:03:06,684 --> 00:03:09,404 Speaker 1: half against Philly first half, now that's a wild card 69 00:03:09,484 --> 00:03:10,564 Speaker 1: loss for the second year in a row. 70 00:03:10,564 --> 00:03:11,484 Speaker 2: If he plays like that. 71 00:03:11,484 --> 00:03:13,524 Speaker 1: Plays like the second half, they can win the super 72 00:03:13,564 --> 00:03:15,844 Speaker 1: Bowl this year. The defense is that good, that talent, 73 00:03:15,884 --> 00:03:18,924 Speaker 1: and the coach is that good. He is so pivotal whatever. 74 00:03:19,004 --> 00:03:21,284 Speaker 1: It's like he's given the Ferrari to drive. Do you 75 00:03:21,324 --> 00:03:23,404 Speaker 1: know how to drive this thing? I'm not totally sure 76 00:03:23,444 --> 00:03:25,884 Speaker 1: you do. We'll find out if we're talking six, seven, 77 00:03:25,924 --> 00:03:27,804 Speaker 1: eight weeks from now about Wow, bon Nix has really 78 00:03:27,804 --> 00:03:30,444 Speaker 1: turned the corner. They're a team you completely have to 79 00:03:30,444 --> 00:03:33,124 Speaker 1: look out for. That was an impressive win. Great defense, 80 00:03:33,164 --> 00:03:34,884 Speaker 1: great coach. I don't know if Nicks is great yet, 81 00:03:34,924 --> 00:03:37,244 Speaker 1: but I have my eye on him. Take number four. 82 00:03:37,564 --> 00:03:39,364 Speaker 1: The AFC is fascinating right now. 83 00:03:40,044 --> 00:03:43,524 Speaker 2: Who wants a spot? It's wide open. Who is great 84 00:03:43,524 --> 00:03:45,044 Speaker 2: in the AFC right now? Just great? 85 00:03:45,604 --> 00:03:48,764 Speaker 1: I guess it's Buffalo sort of not really not last night. 86 00:03:49,164 --> 00:03:51,724 Speaker 1: You have these teams who you can count on as 87 00:03:51,724 --> 00:03:54,044 Speaker 1: a brand, who you know what they're going to bring, 88 00:03:54,124 --> 00:03:56,364 Speaker 1: even when it's not always great, You just can count 89 00:03:56,404 --> 00:03:59,364 Speaker 1: on them that they'll be a factor. The Ravens they're 90 00:03:59,404 --> 00:04:02,164 Speaker 1: totally broken, completely broken. Not only as Lamar hurt, their 91 00:04:02,204 --> 00:04:05,124 Speaker 1: defense is destroyed. They got absolute humilion yesterday with that 92 00:04:05,204 --> 00:04:09,684 Speaker 1: replacement team they had. The Bengals totally broken. The Chargers 93 00:04:09,684 --> 00:04:11,564 Speaker 1: are now broken in a lot of ways too. Both 94 00:04:11,604 --> 00:04:14,324 Speaker 1: their tackles are out, both their top two running backs 95 00:04:14,364 --> 00:04:16,404 Speaker 1: are injured. They've lost to in a row. I don't 96 00:04:16,404 --> 00:04:18,644 Speaker 1: know if I can necessarily count on them. So then 97 00:04:18,684 --> 00:04:21,564 Speaker 1: you have these up and comers I mentioned in the Broncos, 98 00:04:21,644 --> 00:04:25,404 Speaker 1: I mentioned the Patriots, the Colts, the Jaguars. This is 99 00:04:25,444 --> 00:04:29,644 Speaker 1: a great year to be an ascending AFC team. If 100 00:04:29,764 --> 00:04:31,724 Speaker 1: one of those teams is like, let's make the run 101 00:04:31,844 --> 00:04:34,724 Speaker 1: this year, let's grab that playoff spot this year, let's 102 00:04:34,724 --> 00:04:37,284 Speaker 1: grab that playoff win this year. Great year to do it. 103 00:04:37,524 --> 00:04:38,044 Speaker 2: Come on in. 104 00:04:38,444 --> 00:04:40,884 Speaker 1: There is not a neon no vacancy sign in the 105 00:04:40,884 --> 00:04:43,924 Speaker 1: AFC Playoffs motel. They have turned that thing off. They 106 00:04:43,964 --> 00:04:47,804 Speaker 1: got rooms available, they got suites available, Come and get one. 107 00:04:48,284 --> 00:04:51,884 Speaker 1: The teams are really vulnerable right now. The Buffalo Bills 108 00:04:51,924 --> 00:04:54,084 Speaker 1: are going to be there, even the Chiefs. I like 109 00:04:54,124 --> 00:04:55,764 Speaker 1: that the Chiefs are gonna have to fight with the 110 00:04:55,844 --> 00:04:57,764 Speaker 1: numbers because I don't know what their win total is 111 00:04:57,804 --> 00:04:59,524 Speaker 1: going to be. They're a five hundred team going into 112 00:04:59,524 --> 00:05:01,844 Speaker 1: the game tonight. They win tonight three and two, Yes, 113 00:05:01,884 --> 00:05:03,644 Speaker 1: but it's not gonna be one of these fifteen and 114 00:05:03,684 --> 00:05:06,284 Speaker 1: two seasons from the Chiefs. They're gonna leave some meat 115 00:05:06,324 --> 00:05:07,884 Speaker 1: on the bone. If you're an up and coming team. 116 00:05:08,124 --> 00:05:10,924 Speaker 1: There are not a big time front runners, and I 117 00:05:11,084 --> 00:05:13,724 Speaker 1: like that everybody seems to be in the same pool. 118 00:05:14,004 --> 00:05:16,044 Speaker 1: So watch out for like a weird team at the 119 00:05:16,124 --> 00:05:17,324 Speaker 1: end of the season to make the playoffs. 120 00:05:17,364 --> 00:05:19,204 Speaker 2: I would like to see it. Take number five. 121 00:05:19,564 --> 00:05:21,684 Speaker 1: Was that the strangest Hail Mary I've ever seen? From 122 00:05:21,684 --> 00:05:23,724 Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles try to beat the Broncos. Back to 123 00:05:23,724 --> 00:05:26,964 Speaker 1: the Eagles game, Jalen Hurts throws it up kind of perfect. 124 00:05:27,004 --> 00:05:28,084 Speaker 1: It's kind of a short one. I think it was 125 00:05:28,124 --> 00:05:30,364 Speaker 1: about thirty five Yards's not one of these sixty yarders. 126 00:05:30,524 --> 00:05:32,364 Speaker 1: He throws it up perfectly back at the end zone. 127 00:05:32,404 --> 00:05:34,204 Speaker 1: Good for him, one of his best passes of the year. 128 00:05:35,044 --> 00:05:37,324 Speaker 1: I feel like DeVante Smith was going to catch it. 129 00:05:37,404 --> 00:05:40,684 Speaker 1: He timed perfectly, he high pointed it. The Broncos kind 130 00:05:40,684 --> 00:05:42,404 Speaker 1: of blew it. They had about five guys there and 131 00:05:42,444 --> 00:05:44,844 Speaker 1: none of them jumped at the right time. Davante Smith 132 00:05:44,844 --> 00:05:47,004 Speaker 1: has in his hands and it is broken up by 133 00:05:47,084 --> 00:05:50,324 Speaker 1: AJ Brown who's behind him. I feel like Brown made 134 00:05:50,364 --> 00:05:52,764 Speaker 1: the defensive play of the week for the Broncos. 135 00:05:53,164 --> 00:05:55,684 Speaker 2: Also, I think AJ Brown would have caught it if 136 00:05:55,724 --> 00:05:57,004 Speaker 2: Davante Smith wasn't there. 137 00:05:57,204 --> 00:05:59,724 Speaker 1: They had this weird sort of Bob Sled alignment where 138 00:05:59,724 --> 00:06:01,524 Speaker 1: one of them was in front of the other one, 139 00:06:01,644 --> 00:06:03,604 Speaker 1: but neither one of them waited for the deflection. They 140 00:06:03,604 --> 00:06:06,284 Speaker 1: both went for the k they both high pointed it perfectly, 141 00:06:06,404 --> 00:06:08,724 Speaker 1: and they ended up messing up each other. The entire 142 00:06:08,764 --> 00:06:11,764 Speaker 1: Denver Broncos roster did nothing about that Hail Mary, but 143 00:06:11,804 --> 00:06:14,164 Speaker 1: the one eagle broke it up from the other. Ugly, 144 00:06:14,284 --> 00:06:17,124 Speaker 1: weird hail marror. We've seen so many different varieties. I 145 00:06:17,124 --> 00:06:18,924 Speaker 1: don't think I've ever seen that one. 146 00:06:19,164 --> 00:06:21,804 Speaker 2: Take number six. You know, I gave my game ball 147 00:06:21,844 --> 00:06:22,884 Speaker 2: and Good Morning Football this morning. 148 00:06:22,924 --> 00:06:25,284 Speaker 1: I gave it to Jamar Chase, Jamar Chase, who got 149 00:06:25,284 --> 00:06:26,844 Speaker 1: absolutely destroyed again of the Bengals. 150 00:06:27,044 --> 00:06:28,244 Speaker 2: I'm gonna name some names for you. 151 00:06:29,084 --> 00:06:33,764 Speaker 1: Micah Parsons, Joey Bosa, Kalais Campbell, Kenny Clark. 152 00:06:34,084 --> 00:06:36,964 Speaker 2: None of those players had more tackles this weekend than 153 00:06:37,044 --> 00:06:37,724 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase. 154 00:06:38,244 --> 00:06:41,444 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase had three solo tackles in addition to over 155 00:06:41,444 --> 00:06:44,764 Speaker 1: one hundred yards receiving and a touchdown. Jamar Chase had 156 00:06:44,764 --> 00:06:48,484 Speaker 1: more tackles than Trey Hendrickson did for the Bengals. Can 157 00:06:48,484 --> 00:06:50,444 Speaker 1: you imagine how messed up they are that that's a 158 00:06:50,444 --> 00:06:52,964 Speaker 1: stat Can you imagine reality where Trey Hendrickson would have 159 00:06:53,044 --> 00:06:54,644 Speaker 1: more receiving yards than Jamar Chase. 160 00:06:54,844 --> 00:07:00,644 Speaker 2: It's asinine right, Well, the opposite happened. Three solo tackles. 161 00:07:00,004 --> 00:07:03,284 Speaker 1: He's got as many tackles as Michael Parsons, who's paid 162 00:07:03,284 --> 00:07:07,044 Speaker 1: about sixty million year to make tackles. Jamar Chase, He's like, hey, 163 00:07:07,084 --> 00:07:09,524 Speaker 1: I'm doing all I can for the team. Joe's out, 164 00:07:09,524 --> 00:07:11,084 Speaker 1: but I'm still leaving it all on the field. I 165 00:07:11,164 --> 00:07:14,244 Speaker 1: was so impressed with that performance. What a terrible, terrible 166 00:07:14,604 --> 00:07:16,804 Speaker 1: analysis is where the Bengals are right now, which is 167 00:07:16,844 --> 00:07:20,564 Speaker 1: just the seventh circle of health take number seven. I 168 00:07:20,564 --> 00:07:22,164 Speaker 1: think the Lions are the best team in the league. 169 00:07:22,164 --> 00:07:24,724 Speaker 1: I don't do power rankings. God bless them. Highly clickable, 170 00:07:24,724 --> 00:07:27,124 Speaker 1: snackable content. The Lions are the best team in the league, 171 00:07:27,244 --> 00:07:29,404 Speaker 1: the team to look horrible and weak. One has just 172 00:07:29,444 --> 00:07:31,724 Speaker 1: like dominant ever since.
