1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: As a league fifteen to ten touchdown Chargers.

2
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:11,880
Speaker 2: What's Up? Guys?

3
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: Welcome into a Monday night football edition of Chargers Weekly,

4
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: as always, joined by Matt Muddy Smith. Chargers coming off

5
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 1: a primetime win against the Chicago Bears thirty to thirteen,

6
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: a comfortable win money, the first comfortable win I think

7
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: since January first of this year, a game where as

8
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 1: it started to play out, you just realized how much

9
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: better the Chargers were talent wise than the Bears. It

10
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 1: showed out from almost the beginning. And now I guess

11
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 1: a bit of a fourth in the road moment three

12
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: and four going up against a four and three Jets

13
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: team on Monday Night football, it's almost like a mini

14
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 1: playoff game here.

15
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think that you know is we

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 2: always talk about it, right tie breakers, you know, Tennessee

17
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: and my Miami, and you can't afford to lose too many

18
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 2: of those, you know. It's just so important that you

19
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 2: try to win some of these, that if you end

20
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 2: up nine to eight and the Jets end up nine

21
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: and eight, that you get the tip of the cap.

22
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: You know, Tennessee and these other teams, you've got to

23
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 2: be able to build up some of that equity. So

24
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 2: I think that's kind of what you're speaking to, right,

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 2: is these Jets have managed to somehow figure out a way,

26
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 2: especially this past week against the Giants. I mean, my goodness,

27
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 2: they were dead to rights and Graham Gno just shanks

28
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: a field goal and Zach Wilson decides to come alive

29
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 2: for the final thirty seconds of regulation to tie.

30
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 3: That was that the worst game of the year. That

31
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 3: may have been the worst game of the year.

32
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: What was it twenty how many punts? Twenty five four punts? Yeah,

33
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 2: it's like the third most punts in the history of

34
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 2: the NFL or there for like the last thirty years

35
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 2: or something like that. So yeah, I mean, and that's

36
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 2: you know I think, is well, we'll get into it,

37
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 2: I'm sure, but like that's the thing is their defense

38
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: is really good. You know, their offense is not. So

39
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 2: that's that's where you kind of say, Okay, can the

40
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 2: defense keep this offense and check and keet a pretty

41
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:14,359
Speaker 2: darn good justin Herbert passing offense, get those seventeen twenty

42
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 2: one points that you think will be enough to get

43
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 2: the win over a team that has really and they

44
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 2: not only have struggled to score, Chris, but like Nate

45
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 2: Hackett and you know, coach Sala, like they don't even

46
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: really want I shouldn't say they don't want to score,

47
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 2: but like their number one priority on offense is take

48
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 2: care of the football. We can win this thing with

49
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 2: defense and special teams and Hope and Breesehall busts a

50
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 2: long one. Just take care of the football, Zacht take sacks,

51
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 2: don't fumble, don't throw interceptions, and we'll figure this thing

52
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 2: out in the final five minutes.

53
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,519
Speaker 1: Buddy, have you ever done those Twitter spaces where you

54
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: just like you got a group of people and they're

55
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: just talking, And so I did one yesterday with this

56
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: Jets podcast as Jets cast shout out to those guys.

57
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: It felt like it was like a New York talk

58
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: radio show where like, you know, they're.

59
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: Just asking questions about Er.

60
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,119
Speaker 1: They were all, hey, you know what what I think?

61
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: My key takeaway after that was like the Jets fans

62
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: and Chargers fans have a lot more in common than

63
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: you think.

64
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 3: You know, they're just like what's going on.

65
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: They're kind of a you know, a middling record at

66
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: this point, hoping to kind of hang on for a

67
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: wild card spot and a lot of questions about Justin

68
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: Herbert and the secondary and can Zach Wilson exploit this

69
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: Chargers secondary. So I found it like, actually really cool.

70
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: I feel like we should do that with with Chargers

71
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: fans at some point, maybe during the season, just get

72
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: on and answer questions, but before we really dig into

73
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: the Jets anything from that Chicago game that you learned

74
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: about this team, to me, it just felt like it

75
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: was a team.

76
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 3: You're supposed to take care of.

77
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert played well, Austin Eckler through the we were

78
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: kind of waiting for that seven for ninety four and

79
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: a touchdown, and the defense, save for the first play

80
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: of the game, took care of business, kept the running

81
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: game of check and kept the rookie Tyson Baje at bay.

82
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 2: Well, I think there's a lot to take away, you know, Chris,

83
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 2: I do you know we're talking all these social media

84
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 2: outlets now, you know, after every game, I like to

85
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 2: hop on Instagram Live and just hang out for what

86
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 2: I do is one beer. You know, however long it

87
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 2: takes me to finish a beer or whatever I might

88
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 2: have with me at the time, you know, maybe it's

89
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 2: a drink after this one Monday night. You know, if

90
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 2: the hotel bar is open, you know, if they'll serve

91
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 2: me a nice double whiskey or something, that's what it'll be.

92
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 2: But kind of what And I bring it up because

93
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 2: there was a Raider fan that hopped in there and

94
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 2: started talking a lot of trash, and I said, why

95
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: are you here, you know, talking about the Chargers beating

96
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: the crappy Bears team when the Bears team just beat

97
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 2: the Raiders basically thirty to six. So I bring that

98
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,359
Speaker 2: up not to say, hey, I really rubbed that guy's

99
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,119
Speaker 2: face and it no, but like, this is a team

100
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 2: that just knocked off a rate squad and basically got

101
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: Josh McDaniels fired, that had rushed for over one hundred

102
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 2: and sixty yards and four straight games and was one

103
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: of the best rushing teams last year. And granted a

104
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 2: lot of that was justin fields, but these last you know,

105
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,119
Speaker 2: nearly two full games, the Vikings and Bears game were

106
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,919
Speaker 2: with Tyson Bagent and they're still running the ball for

107
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 2: one hundred and seventy five yards and the Chargers knocked

108
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 2: that out. They were like, okay, you know, we talked

109
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 2: about them taking away the right hand take it away

110
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 2: and they finally took it away. Well, you're not gonna

111
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 2: beat us on the ground, so you're gonna have to

112
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 2: beat us through the air. And by the way, Mikey's

113
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 2: gonna be playing a ton of press on DJ Moore

114
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 2: and and we're gonna shade that way. And so I

115
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: think what you saw was, you know, protection was shaded

116
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 2: in the direction of DJ Moore. You know, he only

117
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 2: had four receptions for fifty five yards. We'll take that

118
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: all day. And what else? So then what did you see?

119
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 2: Cole Comet ten catches. That's fine, you want cole Comet

120
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 2: to knock you out instead of Deontay Foreman and DJ Moore.

121
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 2: That's what we were looking for. So that I loved.

122
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 2: I think it was a reminder that when you have

123
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: a healthy Joey Bosa, a healthy Khalil Mack and now

124
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 2: this rookie, you know, two lee two polo two, it's

125
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 2: gonna be a struggle to run, especially if you're trying

126
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 2: to run wide and you're trying to stretch it. These

127
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 2: guys set the edge and they can do some damage

128
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 2: out there. And I think that's that's certainly my defensive takeaway.

129
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 2: You've mentioned it. The explosive on the first play was

130
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 2: like moue, here we go again. Yeah, and then they

131
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 2: were like, Okay, that's not gonna happen again. That's a

132
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 2: mis cue. We'll get it fixed. They did, And I

133
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 2: think you saw really a complete performance. You know, Derwin's

134
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 2: first interception, the defensive line getting after Bagent, you know,

135
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 2: the other interception from Assante, Like, it was a really

136
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 2: complete game. And that was defensively, And I know we

137
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 2: can get into the offense as well, but I'll just

138
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 2: kind of pause there.

139
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, holding this Bears running attack is just

140
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: two point nine yard arts per Carrie and Deontay Forman

141
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: doesn't even get ten carries in the game. So the

142
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 1: running the run d all year money has been pretty good,

143
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: pretty stout, and they're gonna have to be stout against

144
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: Brice Hall and company on Monday.

145
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 3: We'll get into but.

146
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: You know, offensively, you know, I mentioned Austin. I think

147
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: I just think the toughness of Joshua Palmer to come

148
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: back in that football game, not having a guy like

149
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: Gerald Everett.

150
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 3: Keenan doing this thing.

151
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: It felt like Justin needed that game to kind of

152
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: clear the deck and kind of remind people who he is,

153
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: and let's face it, it's gonna be a different animal in

154
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: terms of pressure, the pressure coming in Justin's lap on

155
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: Monday night. With that Jets defensive line, they can rotate

156
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: a bunch of guys in. You know, players are really

157
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: all three levels. But I thought Justin held up well

158
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: and I think you're starting to see, you know, just

159
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: this off It's take shape a little bit.

160
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 2: Now.

161
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: I don't want to put too much stock in a

162
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: win against this Bear's team because you know, you said

163
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: it like, I feel like maybe I had a false

164
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: sense of who they were based on what happened the

165
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: week before and what they did to the Raiders and

166
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: you know who Tyson Bage it was.

167
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 3: I really did.

168
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: I thought that Beijit actually played halfway decent. You know,

169
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: I didn't think that he was kind of the reason

170
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: they lost that game. You know, their defense just they

171
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: couldn't generate pressure all evening. And you know that's another thing.

172
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: The offensive line held up. Justin didn't get.

173
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 2: Sacked, right, So you know, I was just pulling up

174
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 2: the depth chart for the for the Jets just to

175
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 2: make sure I have them when we get into that.

176
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 2: But that's that's something they had to do right. The

177
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: Bears struggled to pass to pass rush, and they struggled

178
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 2: to pass protect take advantage of their weaknesses, and they did.

179
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: Justin didn't get sacked. He absolutely tore them up in

180
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 2: the first half. And you know, you had what I

181
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 2: think sixteen straight completions or something like that. So and

182
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 2: by the way, I forgot it. Sante didn't have that interception.

183
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 2: It hit the ground. They overruled it on that fourth down,

184
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: but it didn't matter. What's turnover run down is joh

185
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: sir first career interception. I want to make sure job

186
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 2: I acknowledge it was a jaw interception, but offensively didn't

187
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 2: take a sack, didn't throw a pick because his team

188
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 2: isn't good at rushing the passer, so take advantage of that.

189
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 2: You know they are good against the run. I do

190
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 2: think a lot of that though is And we saw

191
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 2: that transaction this week. They didn't trade for a blocking

192
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 2: tight end, but they cut one and they elevated one.

193
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 2: And we know Nick Vinette, he's got some salt in

194
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 2: him now. He's a little bit of a salty dude,

195
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 2: and we like that. You know, you're gonna need a

196
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 2: little bit of that in the run game, and they're

197
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 2: gonna give him a crack at trying to get this

198
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 2: thing going and getting that blocking tight end to get

199
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 2: the extra hat on a hat, because that's been a

200
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 2: big issue that designed rushes weren't right and second half

201
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 2: it just it's they got to figure it out, because

202
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 2: that's what they're trying to do, is they should. You know,

203
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 2: you're up twenty four to seven, and you want to

204
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 2: milk that lead, and they're trying to do it by

205
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 2: running the football, and you'd hate that, they would, you know,

206
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 2: have to scrap them, you know, to scrap the running

207
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 2: game and just do what you do best and keep

208
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 2: throwing it. That's not how you want to operate. So

209
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 2: I think they're going to continue to do that, you know,

210
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 2: and look for Austin to be under two yards per

211
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 2: carry is just you've got to figure that out, you know.

212
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 2: You know, obviously Josh Kelly had the explosive the week

213
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 2: before against the Chiefs for forty nine yards. I don't know,

214
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 2: if you just try to get him more carries, maybe

215
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 2: put both of them out there at the same time.

216
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 2: So Austin's a threat in the pass game and Josh's

217
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 2: in the backfield. But that's something they certainly have to

218
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 2: figure out. And then, obviously something that we've been talking

219
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 2: about since Week two when he didn't have much action

220
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 2: in week one, the fact that you finally got q involved,

221
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 2: that you finally six targets, five catches, fifty yards a

222
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 2: DPI defensive pass interference to get a first down on

223
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 2: a scoring drive. Finally, and I credit Justin and coach

224
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 2: more for doing getting some plays that Quinton's good at,

225
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 2: you know, get those quick hitters so he can get

226
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 2: some yack, get the back shoulder throws. Let him use

227
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 2: that big frame of his to turn around and shield

228
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 2: his defender and catch some balls. And so I'm hopeful

229
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 2: that they don't try it, you know, they don't continue

230
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: to try to make him look like Mike Williams, because

231
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 2: he's not like the one target he had that he

232
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 2: did that he didn't, you know, catch, he was six targets,

233
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 2: five catches, was the one in the end zone, the

234
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 2: Mike Williams special, you know, go up and you know,

235
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 2: eat the bowl of doritos off the defensive back's helmet.

236
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 2: So and he went up with one hand again, and

237
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on there, but played his strengths.

238
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 2: He's got strengths. You know, they're quick hitters, he's breaking tackles,

239
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 2: he's getting some yack, and he's shown to be pretty

240
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 2: darn good at those backed shoulder throws to pick up

241
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 2: some first down. So I thought, really good opportunity from

242
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 2: the for the offense to get him involved and get

243
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 2: him some confidence going into this one.

244
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 3: No doubt.

245
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: And you know Parum two quickly touched on him four

246
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: for forty three in the touchdown huge in Gerald's absence

247
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: was huge.

248
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 3: The thing about Quintin.

249
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 1: It wasn't like spectacle killer, right, but you know, five

250
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: for fifty it's six targets. It just felt like progress,

251
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: and I think it's necessary, especially going into this game

252
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 1: against the Jets when he got Sauce Gardner on one side,

253
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,079
Speaker 1: who I imagine is gonna be on number thirteen. Yeah,

254
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,439
Speaker 1: Justin's gonna have to look other places. And Joshua Palmer

255
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: maybe that guy he didn't practice again with that knee

256
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: as we take this on Thursday, but you know, maybe

257
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: this is another spot for Q to get further involved.

258
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 3: In the offense.

259
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 1: Like I said, I it was, you know, seeing those

260
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: plays they felt very routine. But at the same time,

261
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: just the fact that justin like you said, looking his

262
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: way and making that effort to get him involved in

263
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 1: the offense. Who knows money what happens on Monday night,

264
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 1: because I think he may get some more targets.

265
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 2: Well, he's gonna have to, Tria, I think you said it.

266
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 2: You know they're gonna put Sauce on Keenan. I'm guessing,

267
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 2: you know. I don't. I don't think I would assume

268
00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 2: they're gonna play a lot more Nickel and I don't soon.

269
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, I really don't know what

270
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 2: they'll do, if they'll put Michael Carter on them and

271
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 2: and Sauscle just kind of play on the left side,

272
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 2: or how they want to do that. If they just

273
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 2: want to say, hey, Keenan's yours, go get them, that

274
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 2: would probably be my guess. And I think the thing

275
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 2: with Q is what we talked about, right quick, yeah,

276
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 2: quick slants. You know, let them just get in there, Steve,

277
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 2: you can get leverage, get them the ball and go.

278
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 2: Because that pass rush, you know, I was looking off

279
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 2: camera because I was trying to get an eye on it. Man,

280
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 2: it is nasty. It's it's Quinn Williams, It's Quentin Jefferson,

281
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 2: it's Jermaine Johnson. I mean, these dudes, they they roll

282
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:43,679
Speaker 2: them through, and it's it's it's tough, man, it's a

283
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 2: tough front. Quinn is as disruptive as anyone in the league,

284
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 2: you know, not named Chris Jones and Aaron Donald. And

285
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 2: and he's he might be in Chris Jones territory. Now

286
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 2: you know that may be how how good he's now gotten,

287
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 2: so that ball is going to have to come out

288
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: pretty quick. And I think that means, you know, big

289
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 2: keenan game, big big Q game, or you know, like

290
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 2: you said, Donald parms, see if you can get him

291
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 2: matched up. Their linebackers are really athletic too. I mean

292
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 2: their linebackers are playing really well. So I think that's

293
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 2: you know, Quentin Jefferson, Quinn Williams up front, Quincy Williams, CJ.

294
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 2: Mosey at that next level, Sauce Garner, DJ Reed, like, man,

295
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: this defense is good. So it's it's gonna be an

296
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 2: all hands on deck and it might end up being

297
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 2: very similar to what we saw. Let's get a lot

298
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 2: of those Eckler checkdowns. Let's try to get some yak.

299
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 2: Let's just get the ball out of Justin's hands.

300
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: All right, let's uh, hey, you know what I gotta

301
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: ask you about this. This is a little bit off topic,

302
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: but why would the Bears trade for Montes Sweat?

303
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 3: It doesn't make.

304
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 2: Any sense I think for them, Yeah, I think for them.

305
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 2: You know, look, they better have had a deal in

306
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 2: place or else. Montee just has way too much leverage

307
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 2: and you're gonna have to make him the highest paid

308
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 2: d N in the league. So let's just say they

309
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 2: have a deal in place for him. They've got a

310
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 2: ton of cap space, and I don't know how desirable

311
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 2: they are if you're in the open market, but I

312
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 2: think if you can bring him in, see if coach

313
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 2: Eberflus can make that connection with him, feel like, Okay,

314
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 2: I got a defensive coach. They need a defensive end,

315
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 2: you know. I kind of like they've got all the

316
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 2: They're gonna have two top five picks, you know, in

317
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 2: the draft, so maybe you reset with Drake may or

318
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams and Marvin Harrison or something like that. On

319
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 2: the offensive side of the ball, and they just you know,

320
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 2: pass rushers are hard to find. Man you know it.

321
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 2: They are so hard to find and look, would I

322
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 2: have done it? No. I just think it's weird because

323
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 2: he's not on the same schedule as what the rest

324
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 2: of your team is likely to be on. Right, Like,

325
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 2: if I were the Raiders, I'd be trading as crazy

326
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 2: as it's sounds, I just betraying. Max Crosby. Give me

327
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 2: two ones. I gotta re I gotta tear this whole

328
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: thing down. This thing needs to be torn to the

329
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 2: ground and rebuilt. So I need as many draft picks

330
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 2: as I can get. So all these guys are on

331
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 2: the same timeline and we're just growing together. And I

332
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 2: think that's something that you know, the Bears for whatever reason,

333
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: you know, let me just pull up their their death

334
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 2: chart here, just so I can kind of make sure

335
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 2: I got this thing.

336
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 3: Money, as you know. So the one thing I was

337
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 3: thinking about.

338
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 2: Though, Janica's toast Justin Jones, we know well is oh,

339
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, you know, like there's really not you know,

340
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 2: there's not a lot there. I mean, Jalen Johnson's a

341
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 2: good he's a good corner. I like Kyler Gordon. He's

342
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: going into his second year. You know, they just spent

343
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 2: big money Edwards was great in that game against the Chargers.

344
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 2: He's been great all year. I like Tremaine Edmonds. So

345
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe they just feel like, hey, if

346
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 2: we can just get some juice on that front level. We

347
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 2: feel like we've got good linebackers, we've got a number

348
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 2: one corner we believe, you know what, and the Kyler's

349
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 2: coming along in his second year. We just need to

350
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 2: get some juice on that line.

351
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

352
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: The only thing I'm thinking is like, Okay, they're not

353
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: going anywhere this year, Like, right, are you going to

354
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: play them?

355
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 3: Like why even play them? Like put them in bubble

356
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 3: wrap till next year.

357
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: You know, it's like you risk injury on a two

358
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 1: and six team and this is a guy that you're.

359
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 3: Gonna build your defense around. I don't know.

360
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: This was weird the trade deadline? Did you before we

361
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,199
Speaker 1: get into just all things Jets, anything else from the

362
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 1: trade deadline that that intrigued you? You know, there wasn't

363
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: as much activity.

364
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, And the only thing I can think of is that, Yeah,

365
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 2: I guess, Chris, like the thing I was, you know,

366
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 2: we talked about so many different you know, potential maybe

367
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 2: blocking tight ends, you know, what was out there. Could

368
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 2: they go get Jeff Swain from the from the Cardinals.

369
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of some of the other guys

370
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 2: that we were thinking of. Could they go get Josh

371
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 2: Oliver from the Vikings like one. Could they get Mercedes

372
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 2: Lewis from the Packers, like? Were any of those things available?

373
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 2: And I think ultimately whatever the ice was, which would

374
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 2: not have been much, you know, maybe a pick swap,

375
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 2: we'll give you a six, you give us your seven

376
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 2: kind of thing, and they probably just said, you know what,

377
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 2: Nick knows the offense, but he's he's as good. You know,

378
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: we've got to make because that's why they made the change.

379
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 2: That's why Tray's out, you know, because they were probably

380
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 2: looking for that. To me, is what that signaled. We're

381
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 2: looking for a for a blocking tight end. We need

382
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 2: to find one. And ultimately they decided Nick Vinette was

383
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 2: better than whatever else was made available to them at

384
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 2: that position. You know, I think it was interesting, just

385
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 2: with the Corey Linsley situation. I don't remember what then,

386
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 2: what the what the compensation was, but you know, they

387
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: trade for for Ezra Cleveland. I don't think it was much.

388
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 2: You know, it's great, Yeah, it was six Yeah, so

389
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:53,959
Speaker 2: he gives them some depth now, and I just kind

390
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,439
Speaker 2: of think about, is there another you know, can you

391
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 2: shuffle the line a little bit if if Will's getting

392
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 2: warm down? You know, I thought maybe that could have

393
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,479
Speaker 2: been a position where they could have done where they

394
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 2: could have added you know, I think I think what

395
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 2: you see is so many of it are positions where

396
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 2: you know, it's mostly defense. Right. You can tell Montes

397
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 2: Sweat to get the quarterback, you can tell Chase Young

398
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 2: to go get the quarterback. Like those those tend to

399
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 2: be the positions that kind of you can do in

400
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 2: the middle of the season because they don't have to

401
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 2: really worry about the scheme and the fit and all

402
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 2: that sort of stuff.

403
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: All right, quick break money and we'll just get into

404
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,439

420
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,360
Speaker 3: You know, the Chargers.

421
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: Offense against this Jets defense maybe the battle that could

422
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: decide the game. The Jets passing attack, which is thirty

423
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: first in the NFL against the Chargers pass defense, which

424
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: is ranked last. And you know a couple of those games,

425
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: you know, the two A game, the Mahomes game kind

426
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 1: of skews things a little bit, but that may be

427
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 1: the matchup. You know, can Zach Wilson make plays against

428
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 1: his Chargers defense or will this Chargers defense look similar

429
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: to what they look like on Sunday night against the Bears.

430
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I look at at Zach and I

431
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 2: got his game log here. You know, he completed forty

432
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 2: seven percent of his passes against the Giants. He completed

433
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 2: fifty seven percent of his passes against the Eagles. Now

434
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 2: he tore the Denver defense apart, which most people have,

435
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 2: you know, for seventy three percent, but he didn't throw

436
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,439
Speaker 2: a touchdown. He threw a pick against the Chiefs. That

437
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 2: was his best game of his career, that game against

438
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. You know, he ends up completing seventy two

439
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 2: percent for two touchdowns, no interception. So it's in there.

440
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 2: But then you look and you see fifty percent, one

441
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:43,199
Speaker 2: fifty seven, forty four percent, one seventy, sixty six percent,

442
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 2: one forty in a pick and three picks against the Cowboys,

443
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 2: Like there's plays to be made. The one thing you

444
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 2: got to do against the Jets and man, you want

445
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 2: to talk about age. Look, they just did it. They

446
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 2: just did it against the Bears rush attack, Deonta Foreman

447
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 2: and and uh Roshawn Johnson and Dj Moore. Well you

448
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 2: got to do it again. There's only two guys you

449
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 2: gotta worry about. It's Garrett Wilson and it's Breece Hall.

450
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:11,439
Speaker 2: Garrett Wilson is the only pass catcher that Zach Wilson

451
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 2: throws to I mean like he's got double the targets,

452
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,199
Speaker 2: double the yards, double the touchdowns as anybody else on

453
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 2: that team. So if Alan Lazard or Randall Cobb or

454
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 2: Tyler Conklin are gonna beat you, great, go get him, Zach.

455
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 2: Do not let Garrett Wilson beat you. You know, put

456
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 2: Michael Davis on him, shade your help over there, you know,

457
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 2: rough them up a little bit at the line of scrimmage,

458
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 2: and make sure you don't let Breece Hall get loose.

459
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 2: So like to me, remember, their offensive line is in shambles.

460
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 3: It's a mess.

461
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 2: I mean, it is destroyed. So I think it's I

462
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 2: think defensively it could look a lot like it did

463
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 2: against the Bears, where these guys are in the backfield

464
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 2: over and over and over again. Now Zach can run.

465
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 2: Zacks an athlete, he can move. But at the same time,

466
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 2: to me, defensively, those opportunities are there this defense. What

467
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 2: do we say before the Bears game, like, hey, this

468
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 2: is a Joey Bosa game, you know, going up against

469
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 2: borhim the East. This is Joey on number seventy five.

470
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: This is a Bosa game. And it was you know,

471
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 2: he got the sack, he had the huge stop on

472
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 2: fourth down where he just I mean it was one

473
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,719
Speaker 2: hand and he wrecks him and he's in the backfield

474
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 2: for a loss on a fourth and one. Like it

475
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,360
Speaker 2: should be that way again. It should look like that

476
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 2: for Joey. So, you know, take care of the football.

477
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 2: Force a turnover like they did last week. They forced

478
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 2: two nearly three, and really when you count the two

479
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 2: turnovers on downs, you can almost argue they forced four turnovers,

480
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 2: you know, two on downs and two interceptions. Do that again,

481
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 2: and I don't think it's gonna take very similar to

482
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 2: the Bears. I don't think it's gonna take but seventeen

483
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,879
Speaker 2: points to win this game. If the defense plays like

484
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 2: it did last week. And really, you could say Chris

485
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 2: for the last six quarters since halftime of the Chiefs

486
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,439
Speaker 2: game through that whole Bears game, if you can get

487
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 2: the defense to play that way and more day on Henley, please,

488
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 2: can we get him out there a little bit maybe

489
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 2: on some third downs, get that athleticism out there on

490
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 2: some third downs. I wouldn't mind seeing him running around.

491
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 2: I think Eric Kendricks has done a great job this

492
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 2: year against the run. He had a huge couple of

493
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 2: huge stops. But I think on passing downs, I wouldn't

494
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 2: mind seeing day On out there. You just saw him, Man,

495
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 2: how fast he was running sideline to sideline. Man, it

496
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 2: was impressive watching him close and laying some lumber. I

497
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 2: would not mind seeing him and Kenneth out there on

498
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 2: third downs.

499
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 3: I'd love to see Thember Zero out there.

500
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: You know, a couple of years ago, Joey Boss I

501
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 1: think led the NFL w strip sacks. And that's where

502
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: I feel like it's for the taking. On Monday nights,

503
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 1: you got Mac and Bosa coming off the edge with Tully.

504
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: Those three guys could decide the game. They correct the game,

505
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: and you know, heck, forget one turnover, get a couple

506
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 1: score on defense.

507
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 3: I mean this.

508
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 1: I think this is the opportunity for Joey and Khalil

509
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: to have to pin their ears back against an offensive

510
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 1: line that's as beat up and battered as you mentioned,

511
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: like the New York Jets. You know the back end too,

512
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: you know, get your hands on the football. Derwin finally

513
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: got his hands on the football. We've seen Zon do it,

514
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 1: you know, since he's been a Charger. John got his

515
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 1: hands on the football last week, so I think the

516
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: defense is gonna have to show up and maybe score.

517
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,440
Speaker 1: Someone asked me to score what they thought the score

518
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 1: was gonna be Monday night, and I said twenty to seventeen.

519
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: I think twenty points wins you this game.

520
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 3: Buddy.

521
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 2: Do you remember well I would say this, Chris, if

522
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 2: the Jets score seventeen, they have not, Let's see what

523
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 2: do we got? We got a twenty two, then we

524
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 2: got ten, ten, twenty thirty one, twenty okay, yeah, so

525
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,719
Speaker 2: that works thirteen Like I don't want to see him

526
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 2: score more than thirteen. Like, to me, this is like

527
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 2: a this is an opportunity. You know. We talked about

528
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 2: it last like go you know, going into the Bear game,

529
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 2: we talked about, hey, this is the game you dominate.

530
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 2: This is where you, you know, can take I wish

531
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 2: they would have taken their foot off the gas a

532
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 2: little bit more. I would have liked to have seen

533
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 2: that last offensive series, you know, just get everybody out

534
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 2: of their kind of thing, you know, because they could

535
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 2: have done that. They did it on defense, right, you know,

536
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 2: you had all the backups in there on defense and

537
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 2: give them an opportunity to shine. I would have loved

538
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 2: to have seen that. I'd lie, I am hopeful that

539
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,159
Speaker 2: they can do that here, that you can pop a

540
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 2: couple here or there. You know, see if Herbert can

541
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 2: pop a couple, get up fourteen nothing, or get up

542
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 2: let's say, get up double digits, maybe it's fourteen. Put

543
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 2: this team in obvious passing situations. Yeah, and that's when

544
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 2: you can really tee off. That's when you can start

545
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 2: to tee off if you can get up by let's

546
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 2: say ten or fourteen, and in the second half they

547
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 2: feel like, okay, we can't just run the ball and

548
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 2: punt and try to force that turnover. Play the field

549
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 2: position game because that's all they against the Giants, and

550
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 2: it worked because the Giants are a terrible offense. So

551
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 2: that's just the way they want to play. You know,

552
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 2: they want this thing to be a rock fight. And

553
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 2: I think if you can try to find some explosives early,

554
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 2: then you know, that's the key here.

555
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Jets are not equipped to play from behind,

556
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: you know, And you're right, fourteen to nothing would be

557
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:27,640
Speaker 1: the perfect scenario, now you flip it. We talked about

558
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: this in the offseason, the slow starts to the second half.

559
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 1: Now they've just become kind of slow halves for the

560
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: Chargers offense. It seems like they come out strong in

561
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: the first half, didn't score in the second half against

562
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: the Chiefs of the Raiders. Are you concerned that this

563
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 1: trend will continue, you know, especially against a Jets defense

564
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: that's as stout as they are money, like, you got

565
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: to play four quarters offense.

566
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,239
Speaker 2: Well, I think it's you know, it's clear what it is.

567
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 2: I just pulled up the game log right from that

568
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 2: second half. So you're up twenty seven to seven. They

569
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,120
Speaker 2: score a field goal on the opening drive, right, so

570
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 2: now you're up twenty. You know they're struggling. You want

571
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,199
Speaker 2: to run the ball, see if you can get some

572
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 2: of these five seven minute drives that end in field

573
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 2: goals and just get this thing done. Instead, you got

574
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:21,120
Speaker 2: Austin Eckler on first down for minus one yard, you know,

575
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 2: so that's a three and out. The next one you

576
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 2: get the turnover on downs deep in Bear's territory, Austin

577
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 2: Eckler one yard, and then that puts you off schedule,

578
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 2: and then you get two incompletions and next thing you know,

579
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 2: you're kicking a field goal after gaining one yard on

580
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 2: a turnover on downs. Then you look at it here right,

581
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 2: Austin Eckler up the middle, three yards, Josh Kelly right guard,

582
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 2: three yards, Austin Eckler up the middle, no gain. Austin

583
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 2: Eckler on fourth and one, no gain. They can't run

584
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 2: the ball, you know, they have really struggled to run

585
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 2: the ball. And for whatever, I don't know what it

586
00:28:59,960 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 2: is is, I don't know why it is. I don't

587
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 2: know if they're the wrong run design, you know, if

588
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 2: the designed runs are just wrong, if if they're not

589
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 2: able to block them up. Does Austin Eckler not have juice? Like,

590
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is, but that's why the

591
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 2: second half looked like that. You know. Then the final drive,

592
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 2: which was a three and out, was spiller for one yard,

593
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 2: spiller for no gain, spiller for two yards. And that's

594
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 2: them just running out the clock. You know, basically that

595
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 2: was the So I shouldn't even put that one in there,

596
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 2: but you get the gist. Their designed runs have been bad.

597
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 2: Like they're dead last in the league, you know, in

598
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 2: EPA on designed runs, so and they're dead last by

599
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 2: a wide margin, like a wide margin. I think their

600
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 2: success rate is in I wish if I was more responsible,

601
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 2: i'd pull it up. I think their success rate is

602
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 2: in like the twenty twenty two to twenty three percent range,

603
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 2: and like the next lowest is in the thirties. It's

604
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 2: it's a drastic difference as to how bad they've been.

605
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 2: And that's those numbers. By the way, those include the

606
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: Miami game. Like that's the crazy part about it, Like

607
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 2: they were unreal. They were the number one rushing team

608
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 2: in the league in the Miami game.

609
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: The predictability, though, money, do you think that's that can

610
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: hurt them against the Jets if the Jets don't even

611
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: respect the run and the Chargers try it in the

612
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 1: first quarter to no avail. I mean, I know Justin

613
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: can make plays with the best of them, but like,

614
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's you gotta playing like one handed here, Like, hey,

615
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: we're gonna throw the ball every down?

616
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, I mean, look, they have to run it.

617
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 2: I think it's just trying to figure out, Okay, these

618
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 2: plays aren't working, So is it not? You know, like,

619
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 2: is it is it Isaiah Spiller? Is it just you know,

620
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 2: instead of trying to stretch these things and find the

621
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 2: gaps that are out a little bit wider and you're

622
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 2: running wide, So why not just let's take the biggest back,

623
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 2: see if we can run them up the gut. Let's

624
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 2: just see if we can get a little more north

625
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 2: south somethun in the A and the B gaps. See

626
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 2: if we can create lanes there. Now, again, I think

627
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 2: this goes to the Nick Venett you know conversation. Do

628
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 2: they think this could be in addition in the run

629
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 2: blocking game, where you know he can help them out

630
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 2: And now you can get to those edges a little

631
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 2: bit more. You can get another hat on a hat

632
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 2: and have a little bit more explosives on the edges.

633
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 2: So look, we know it's in there. You know Josh

634
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 2: Kelly had one for forty nine. We saw it against Miami,

635
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 2: so you know it's And look the Jets, if I

636
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 2: remember right, aren't the Jets? The Jets are not a

637
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 2: good run defense. They're a really good pass defense, if

638
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 2: if memory serves correct, they are not a good run defense.

639
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 2: Let me see what I got here. I'm almost positive

640
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 2: of that you.

641
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 3: Can run on them.

642
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: And I think that the Chargers will probably try to

643
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: see what they got cooking in the first quarter.

644
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 3: Money. You know, whether it's Kelly or Spiller.

645
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 2: You know, I think Austin, yeah, one hundred and fifty,

646
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty five per game's get it, you know.

647
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: I think Austin talked about like, you know, he's not

648
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 1: happy with the way he's been running the football, and

649
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: maybe maybe this is a spot to get right on

650
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 1: the ground for this team, because you're gonna have to

651
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 1: pack it at some point. You really are gonna have

652
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: to pack it at some point, and and Monday night

653
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: would be a nice start against a team that you

654
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: know was four and three right now, money, I'm just

655
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 1: looking at these these standings in the AFC, man, it.

656
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 3: Is completely jumbled.

657
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 1: Coincidentally, we're we're taping this during the Titans Steelers game,

658
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: which we could look back week seventeen and be like,

659
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: you know, that was actually a big game in terms

660
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 1: of like the tiebreaker with the Titans, and you know

661
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: what the Steelers could be. Right now, we see Cincinnati

662
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: coming on. Baltimore looks to be the class of the

663
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: AFC North. The Jets are just hanging around. The Bills

664
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: have underachieved. The Dolphins are six and two. We know

665
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 1: what the Chiefs are even though they stubbed their toe

666
00:32:58,640 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: against the Broncos.

667
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 2: The Broncos and those two teams are playing, by the way,

668
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 2: Dolphin Chiefs are playing this week, So get a little

669
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 2: bonus there.

670
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 1: How about how about the Broncos beating the Chiefs and

671
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: then standing pat with all the guys that we thought

672
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 1: were gonna be a part of the fires sale.

673
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 3: I feel like the Broncos and the Broncos, you look

674
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 3: at their.

675
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 1: Schedule, you know, who knows they could get on a

676
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: little bit of a run here, so that that six

677
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: and seven seed in the AFC completely up for grabs

678
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 1: right now. Unfortunately, the Chargers, you know, I think they're

679
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: like technically a game back of the seventh seed. But

680
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: you got to a host of teams in front of

681
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 1: you right now. So it's it's one game at a time.

682
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 1: It's cliche.

683
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 2: Here's here's my one. Here's my main concern right when

684
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 2: I look at it as it stands right now, Kansas City, Miami, Jacksonville, Baltimore.

685
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 2: There's your division winners. Do you think any of those

686
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 2: four are falling out?

687
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: No?

688
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 2: No, I don't think any of those. Kansas City's gonna

689
00:33:57,680 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 2: be there, Miami is going to be there, Jacksonville's going

690
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 2: to be there, Baltimore is gonna be there. They're gonna

691
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 2: make it. So then I look below them and I

692
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 2: see Buffalo, and then you already said it. I see

693
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 2: the Bengals coming on. I see the Bengals.

694
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: So now they play each other Sunday night, Buffalo Cincinnati exactly.

695
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 2: So to me, I feel like, I feel like there's

696
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:26,799
Speaker 2: one spot. You know, I know the Bills have left

697
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 2: a lot to be desired, but I just feel like

698
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 2: they're a complete team. You know that look without Milano

699
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,320
Speaker 2: and you know they've had they've taken some serious injuries

700
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,800
Speaker 2: on the defensive side of the ball, no doubt about it.

701
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 2: You know, Milano and exactly Tredevious White. There you go,

702
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,399
Speaker 2: so two of their best players. So they're gone, they're

703
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 2: you know, they haven't played great. You know, you can

704
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,720
Speaker 2: make a case that they should have lost to the Giants,

705
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 2: that they didn't get that PI call on Waller in

706
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 2: the end zone, and that would if they would, you know,

707
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 2: you feel like, okay, now you got it from the one.

708
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 2: You win that game with sakuon Barkley, and if Chris

709
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 2: Godwin just decides to look for a ball, they maybe

710
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 2: lose to Tampa as well, So you can make a

711
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 2: case that the Bills aren't quite right, and you know

712
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 2: they say, and you get to play them head to head.

713
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,399
Speaker 2: But man, I just feel like there's some really good

714
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 2: teams up there. When I'm looking at the standings and

715
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,359
Speaker 2: I think about, you know, this team could be four

716
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 2: and three. Have they just maintained against the Titans. It

717
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 2: feels so much better than three and four when you

718
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 2: look up and you see Chiefs, Dolphins, Jags, Ravens, Bills,

719
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 2: and and Bengals all in front of you.

720
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 3: So look, so look at this AFC.

721
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,439
Speaker 1: So I completely agree with you. I think there's those

722
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: six teams. They're going to be there once we get

723
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 1: to January. So this is who you're competing against, Pittsburgh, Cleveland,

724
00:35:55,520 --> 00:36:00,439
Speaker 1: the Jets. That's why, that's why Monday's big right to see.

725
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 1: You know, let's say Tennessee. You guys will know the results.

726
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 1: So I don't want to speculate on tonight, but you know,

727
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:07,359
Speaker 1: Will Levis looked good last week.

728
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 2: He's keep playing tonight. He's playing great man, So.

729
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe they got something in Will Levis and the

730
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 1: Titans going to run Mike Vrabel can coach them up

731
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:18,879
Speaker 1: with the best of them.

732
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:21,879
Speaker 3: Denver may think that they can get on a run.

733
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 1: They're only half a game back of the Chargers right now, right,

734
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: I think I don't know if Antonio Pierson company in

735
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,360
Speaker 1: Vegas are going to get it done. I think the

736
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,359
Speaker 1: Colts are a year away from from doing much without

737
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson, you know.

738
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 2: I mean, here's the good news, Chris, right, think of

739
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 2: all those those names I've just read off, so we know,

740
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 2: like we just talked about this, right, the Bengals are

741
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 2: coming on. The Browns have perhaps the best defense in

742
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 2: the league. They've got serious issues on offense, particularly at quarterback,

743
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 2: but you know they've got and if they're in the conversation,

744
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 2: is the best defense in football. So the Chargers get

745
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,280
Speaker 2: to play the Ravens. The Chargers get to play the Bills.

746
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 2: They get to play both of them at home, you know, so,

747
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 2: and they're both in primetime Ravens on Sunday night, Bills

748
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 2: on Saturday night. There and the Bills have to travel on.

749
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 2: What I'm guessing is, let me see if that's it's

750
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 2: not a highly doubt it's coming off the bye. No,

751
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 2: so they're going to be coming to play us on

752
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 2: a short week and they're gonna have to travel on

753
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:26,480
Speaker 2: a short week, so you get a little bit of

754
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,399
Speaker 2: an advantage there. So that's the good news is these

755
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,320
Speaker 2: teams are in front of you, but you got a

756
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 2: head to head and you have a chance to own

757
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 2: that tiebreaker. So you know, Unfortunately for the Chargers, the

758
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:43,239
Speaker 2: the Ravens are going to be coming off They're gonna

759
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 2: be coming off the Mini by They're playing Cincinnati that

760
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 2: Thursday night before they play the Chargers on Sunday night.

761
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: Giganic honestly, like, you know, if the Bengals are who

762
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,880
Speaker 1: we think they are, I think that they could end

763
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 1: up winning the North.

764
00:37:55,880 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 3: Like they started slow, that game would be crucial for

765
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 3: them to because I think they lost to the Ravens

766
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 3: earlier this year if I'm not mistaken.

767
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: They did, so you know, you split, then you have

768
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 1: Baltimore come to town. If the Chargers get the head

769
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 1: to head against the Ravens here now now we're doing

770
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: the uh, well, it's in front of him. Yeah, I

771
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,719
Speaker 1: think all I'm saying, Chris is it's in front of him.

772
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 1: As daunting as it looks, the good news is you

773
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 1: get to play them. You get to earn it. You know,

774
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: if we feel like, oh, wow, I don't think the

775
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 1: Bills are falling out. I don't think the Ravens are

776
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: falling out. Well, guess what, you can go earn it.

777
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: You can knock them off. And now you've got the

778
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 1: tiebreaker there and it's still you know, I hate doing

779
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,359
Speaker 1: it because look, this is a big game this week,

780
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: but it's still in front of them.

781
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:40,359
Speaker 2: You just got to win. You've just got to win.

782
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 2: You had to beat the Bears. We said that this

783
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 2: is a must win game against the Bears. This too

784
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,240
Speaker 2: is a must win game. Get this game on Monday

785
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 2: night against a team that is one of the absolute

786
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 2: worst on that side of the football. They are one

787
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,080
Speaker 2: of the worst offenses in the league. The Bears are

788
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 2: one of the worst offensive lines and defensive lines in

789
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 2: the league. Take advantage of it, and they did. And

790
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 2: so I think this is a chance for the defense

791
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 2: to really flex to say, hey, these six quarters were

792
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 2: not a fluke. These last six quarters are who we are,

793
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 2: and we can make plays and we can sack the quarterback,

794
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 2: and we can create turnovers, and man, talk about just

795
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 2: you know, talk about creating turnovers. I'll tell you there's

796
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 2: just some guys, man, that are football players. They in

797
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 2: Alowe is a football player. He's just he is always

798
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 2: in the right spot at the right time and makes

799
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 2: the right play over and over again, and the timing

800
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 2: on that and that's what a pass rush does. So

801
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 2: now you get this pass rush and bage it's a

802
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 2: tick off and he's got to get rid of it

803
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 2: and he doesn't have the zip on it that he

804
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 2: wants to have on it, so it floats up a

805
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 2: little bit and there's a Looie ready to make that

806
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,280
Speaker 2: hit shoulder on the ball as soon as it arrives,

807
00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 2: pops up in the air and Derwin is able to

808
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 2: get the interception. Like it's so good to have a

809
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 2: Lowie Gilman back there. And I'm.

810
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: So glad you mentioned him because again I think he

811
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: got from the Minnesota game right, so like the Chargers

812
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 1: had not had him, and I think the secondary really

813
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,879
Speaker 1: did suffer without him. He just he's like a glue guy.

814
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,360
Speaker 1: He's a he knows the system, he's a calling presence

815
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: back there. Derwin trusts him, and you know, I look

816
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: at these games against Chicago and the Jets as almost confidence.

817
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 3: Builders for this team. Right, you beat the Bears.

818
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 1: Right, next step, go on the road Monday night. Beat

819
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,320
Speaker 1: a team you're supposed to be get the five hundred.

820
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 2: Right.

821
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: Then you get the Lions. And we saw what the

822
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 1: Lions did to the Raiders. The Lions are good, the blip,

823
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: they're the blip. Against the Ravens, you throw it out.

824
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:52,319
Speaker 1: It was just it wasn't their day. That'll be the game, right.

825
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 1: A couple of confidence builders in this say, Okay, we

826
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 1: got Detroit in our place. This is where we can

827
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 1: make our move. We can get the five and four,

828
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 1: get our role, and prove that we can actually beat

829
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,320
Speaker 1: a really good team, a Super Bowl contending team in

830
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: the NFC. So none of this matters. We'll have a

831
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,360
Speaker 1: different conversation if the Chargers fall to the Jets. But

832
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: I think that they are prime to at least get

833
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: back to five hundred here on Monday night.

834
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:21,399
Speaker 2: I just feel like, again, the the blueprint is there,

835
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:24,439
Speaker 2: you know, get Let me just get to the box

836
00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,920
Speaker 2: score from this last I mean again, it was twenty

837
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 2: four punts. Twenty four punts. They sacked him four times,

838
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 2: They had eight tackles for loss. Like they forced the

839
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 2: Jets to punt eleven times for five hundred and twenty

840
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 2: nine punt yards like, and that's a Giants defense that

841
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 2: is not great. It's not so Tom Devino under center exactly.

842
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 2: And that's why they only scored ten points, right, you

843
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:54,839
Speaker 2: know they should have scored thirteen and got the win.

844
00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 2: But you know, I think that's create the turnover. Go up,

845
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 2: don't let this team lean on Breisee Hall, and you know,

846
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,760
Speaker 2: just get after it. Stop the run. Force Zack Wilson

847
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 2: to beat you with anyone but Garrett Wilson. I mean,

848
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 2: my gosh, Like the Giants were able to shut them

849
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 2: down in the run game. They only rushed for fifty

850
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 2: eight yards on twenty two carries, and look what it

851
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:25,320
Speaker 2: was thirteen points in overtime. Like that's so that's what

852
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,320
Speaker 2: you gotta do. You gotta shut down the run because

853
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 2: you know, Robert sala is not gonna let Zach Wilson

854
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,880
Speaker 2: throw it all over the yard unless he absolutely has to.

855
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 2: He wants to protect the ball and lean on his

856
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,600
Speaker 2: defense and try to create some fumbles or try to

857
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 2: create some turnovers. So you know, it's to me, it's

858
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 2: another one on paper that looks lopsided. I know their

859
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 2: defense is really good, but you ought to be able

860
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 2: to create some turnovers and just really shut that offense

861
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 2: down to where you can get up two scores and

862
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:56,359
Speaker 2: then start cutting loose.

863
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this box score for from the Eagles

864
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 1: game just because I feel like that's a that's an

865
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 1: offense that has a playmaker on the outside and in

866
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:14,279
Speaker 1: Brown and Branta Smith and Tevi Goddard a running game.

867
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:18,680
Speaker 1: You know that the DeAndre Swift had ten carries for

868
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 1: eighteen yards in that game. AJ Brown went off seven

869
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,279
Speaker 1: for one thirty one, Devonte Smith five for forty four.

870
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,840
Speaker 1: They only scored fourteen points. Jalen Heard has had three interceptions.

871
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 3: So I thought, that's the key is justin just taking

872
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:32,800
Speaker 3: care of the football.

873
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 2: You know, he's turned it all over four times. Yeah,

874
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 2: you know, so that's again, that's the key. That that

875
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,399
Speaker 2: and that's look, that's what the Jets want to do, right.

876
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,720
Speaker 2: They ran it twenty one times for eighty nine yards.

877
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 2: They weren't getting a bunch of yards on the carry

878
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:48,320
Speaker 2: out the box score in front of me now and

879
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 2: they're like, hey, Zach, you're gonna throw out thirty three

880
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:52,799
Speaker 2: times for one hundred and eighty six yards. You're gonna

881
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 2: take five sacks. But you're not gonna throw a pick

882
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,520
Speaker 2: and you're not gonna fumble, and we're gonna win this

883
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 2: game by field position and field goals and a timely

884
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 2: touchdown somewhere.

885
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 3: The field position thing I think is absolutely key too.

886
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 1: And somebody mentioned this to me yesterday, is you know

887
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,760
Speaker 1: how important it is to have a weapon like Cameron

888
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: Dicker and to take the points against a team like

889
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:21,320
Speaker 1: the Jets, right like, instead of going forward on fourth

890
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:25,800
Speaker 1: down in three or fourth and five, if Cameron Dicker

891
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,279
Speaker 1: is like fifty three and in trust Cameron Dicker, he's

892
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:29,799
Speaker 1: missed two.

893
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 3: Field goals as a member of the Chargers.

894
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:36,839
Speaker 1: He's been money automatic and an absolute weapon for this team.

895
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 1: So I think, especially in a game like this money

896
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: where we could see it being low scoring and points

897
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,400
Speaker 1: are going to probably be at a premium, Cameron Dicker

898
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,319
Speaker 1: could be another deciding force here in this game.

899
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great point, Chris, And I think that's

900
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 2: something that Coach Staley has said when he's been asked

901
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 2: about the fourth down stuff. He's like, it's it's not

902
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 2: a philosophy, it's just the game dictates it, you know,

903
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 2: And to me, you're right, this is a game where

904
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,320
Speaker 2: you're fine taking field goals, take them all. You know,

905
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,720
Speaker 2: you can get into positive you're get a plus territory

906
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 2: and get into dicker range, and you know, hopefully it's

907
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 2: a it's a favorable weather, which it looks like it's

908
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 2: just gonna be a little chilly. But outside of that,

909
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 2: I think you're fine. Then take the points, you know,

910
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 2: take the points. So look, I think it's it's not

911
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 2: it's not blowout. I don't. I don't think it's like that.

912
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 2: But I do think it's a game where you know,

913
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,919
Speaker 2: let's let's see that Brandon Staley defense. Shine. Let's let's

914
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:33,480
Speaker 2: do the same thing you did against the Bears. You

915
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 2: took away Dj Moore, you took away the run game.

916
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,439
Speaker 2: Do it again, take away the run game. Take away

917
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:42,320
Speaker 2: Garrett Wilson. Let anything else beat you. Anything else is fine,

918
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 2: but don't let it be those two things. Yep.

919
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: And I just I just go back to what you

920
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 1: said earlier that I think is probably the most likely

921
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 1: path to winning is to get out in front of

922
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,440
Speaker 1: this team right off the rip, you know, right like

923
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 1: you said, get up fourteen nothing, because I can't envision

924
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson coming back and beating Justin Herbert. So a

925
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 1: quick start on offense, you know, be opportunistic on defense,

926
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: and see if you can get to four and four.

927
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 3: You ready for New York?

928
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,399
Speaker 2: Well I better be. I'm leaving tomorrow morning, so I'm

929
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:17,840
Speaker 2: gonna be there, be there all weekend, so I'll have

930
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,800
Speaker 2: plenty of time to get settled in before the before

931
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 2: the Monday nighter. You know, I'll just say this in

932
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 2: in closing. You know, I think I think it's it's

933
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 2: a great opportunity for Justin to use his legs in

934
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,239
Speaker 2: this one. To me, that's that's something that's gonna have

935
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 2: to be a factor. And I'm not talking about him

936
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 2: running for ninety yards. I'm talking about Kellen Moore designing

937
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 2: some just boots. Just get him on the move, don't

938
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 2: let him sit back there. They're too good up the

939
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 2: middle to just get in his lap too quickly. So

940
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 2: and you know what, when he's on the move, take off,

941
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 2: you know, take off and pick up five slide and

942
00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 2: you know, just get positive yards. That's that's gonna be

943
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 2: the key.

944
00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:59,359
Speaker 1: Maybe, hey, you know what, maybe design runs like that's

945
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 1: the way to get a running game going. Why not?

946
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 2: And you get the team on their heels, no doubt, exactly,

947
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 2: no doubt.

948
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 1: All right, guys, well, hey, as always, we appreciate you listening,

949
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: watching for money. I'm Chris. We'll see you next week.

950
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,719
Speaker 1: Hopefully the Chargers will be a four and four and.

951
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 3: We'll be talking about a pivotal game against the Detroit line.

952
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll you next time. Let's get it.
