Mitchro crazy week. 29 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: But the thing that's always true as Sad Francisco forty 30 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: nine ers win a game. I love it. They look 31 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 2: good doing it. 32 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: Rich CMC, Yeah, we talked about it the last couple times. 33 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 2: Man. 34 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: He is a game breaker, He's a difference maker. I'm 35 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: just shocked he didn't break the record. Man, I was 36 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: hoping they'd give it to him on the goal line 37 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: at that last one. Richard, your thoughts on this game, Well, 38 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: they were in control the entire time. Brock Purdy had 39 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: a darned air perfect game. He threw one away under pressure, 40 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: almost got there but missed one pass. Twenty to twenty one, 41 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: ninety five point two completion percentage, fourth highest in NFL history. 42 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: Another win. I think he's ten and zero now and 43 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: regular season starts. Ten starts in the regular season, ten 44 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 2: wins in the regular season for Brock Purdy. Obviously, Christian 45 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: McCaffrey looked fantastic. Twenty carries for one oh six, three 46 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 2: touchdowns and then of course the receiving touchdown. Seven catches 47 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: for seventy one yards. He does it all. Not a 48 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: huge game for Deebo Samuels still beat up, so they 49 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 2: kind of used him as a deepy today. But Brandon 50 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 2: Ayuk six a great game. I'm looking forward to this 51 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 2: next game. Iguinst the Cowboys, Mitchell, I guess Cowboys. 52 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: Everyone's going to be watching that game. Rich That's Sunday 53 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 1: night football. But Richard, this game, I mean, the Cardinals 54 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 1: are playing better football than I think a lot of 55 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 1: people expected. You know, Josh Dobbs has turned into a 56 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: halfway decent quarterback for him, so, you know, much props 57 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: to the Niners they go out there and win by nineteen. 58 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: But obviously everyone's looking forward to next week. Rich I know, 59 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: we it's early in the podcast. I don't want to 60 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: get into the Richard Sherman power ranks, but I got 61 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: a feeling these two teams are pretty darn high up 62 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: on that list. 63 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're definitely gonna be high up on the power ranks. 64 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 2: The Cowboys might sneak back into the top five. They 65 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 2: had that stinker against the against the Cardinals, but they 66 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: came back this week with a very good game against 67 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 2: the New England Patriots. First time ever Bill Belichick has 68 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: lost by thirty five plus points. 69 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: All right, rich well, it's good. Let's go down to 70 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: Buffalo here or over to Buffalo. This is a game 71 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: I was wrong on. I thought Miami was gonna come 72 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: out there and get a win. Today Buffalo just does 73 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: it again on their home field and winning by twenty eight, 74 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: forty eight to twenty Richard, did you see this coming? 75 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 2: No, Mitchell, I could not say I seeing it coming. 76 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,919 Speaker 2: I thought, you know, to a tongue of Iloa is 77 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 2: on MVP watch. Been playing fantastic football all season, you know, 78 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill was difficult to stop. Only had three catches 79 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,239 Speaker 2: today for fifty eight yards. Don't know what's going on there? 80 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 2: Devon a. Caine A Chain had still had a solid 81 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 2: game eight rushers for one oh one and two touchdowns. 82 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 2: But you wonder why you didn't see it see the 83 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: ball more. But Josh Allen has been playing dang their 84 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 2: perfect ball. Since that stinker versus the Jets, he's been outstanding. 85 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 2: I don't think he's thrown an interception or had a 86 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 2: turnover since Week one. Today he's twenty one for twenty four, 87 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 2: twenty one for twenty five, three twenty four touchdowns, a 88 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,679 Speaker 2: perfect passer rating. I mean he ran for another touchdown. 89 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: I mean he's back to looking like his old self. 90 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 2: And that's the guy that a lot of people had 91 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 2: as an MVP candidate last year and coming into this year, 92 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 2: but they did lose for Davius White. You hate to 93 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 2: see it. You know, he went down a couple of 94 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 2: seasons ago with the knee injury, and now he goes 95 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 2: goes back with the achilles injury, and he's just like, 96 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 2: you just feel for the guy because he just he's 97 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 2: such a great human being, a great football player, and 98 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 2: you just wish you could stay on the field. They're 99 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 2: gonna get Von Miller back soon, but you just hate 100 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 2: to see that. 101 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 3: Uh, that is a brutal loss. 102 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: Even with Vaughn coming back to Davis, White was an 103 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: anchor and their their defensive backfield. Rich, But this game, 104 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: like we talked about it, I thought it was gonna 105 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: be a lot closer the AFC East. It's gonna probably 106 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: come down to these two teams. Does this make the 107 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills your favorite in this division right now? 108 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: Rich, Well, they have to be. They have to be. 109 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 2: I mean, you got the two best teams in the division. 110 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 2: You know, they went head to head Buffalo. I beat 111 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: him handily forty eight to twenty. After Miami just you know, 112 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: ran up seventy points against the Denver Broncos last week. 113 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 2: Greg Rousseau two sacks, Micah Hyde had an interception. Stefan 114 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 2: dig six for one twenty and three touchdown. Fantastic game 115 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 2: for him. You got you gotta feel like they're in 116 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 2: control of the division. That's a statement game. They were 117 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 2: at home, but still Miami, it's not Buffalo when it's 118 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 2: snow outside and it's cold and all that, so you 119 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 2: don't really have that excuse. It was Buffalo in September, 120 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 2: so you know, Miami had to find a way to 121 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 2: get that win. They didn't. Jalen Wado played not sure 122 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: what the answers are for them. 123 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. 124 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: Well, Richard, we've had our partner every week, Morgan and Morgan, 125 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: and now it's time for this week's segment, Making it 126 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: look easy. Player of the Week brought to you by 127 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: Morgan and Morgan in America's largest injury law firm. 128 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 3: Richard, this week. 129 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: I think we got to give it to Stefan Diggs. 130 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: He made it look really easy out there against the Dolphins. 131 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: You already touched on it. Six receptions, one hundred and 132 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: twenty yards and three touchdowns. That's got to feel real 133 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: good for Stefan. There is a lot of, you know, 134 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: rumblings during the offseason that he might want out of town, 135 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: you know, Like you said, I think Josh Allen has 136 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: righted this ship. I think Stefan Diggs if he can 137 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: get looking like he did today, three touchdowns, made a 138 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: huge play on the sideline, broke two tackles, ran for 139 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: I don't even know how long it was, sixty yarder, 140 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: you know. So those are the big plays we used 141 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: to see it out of Stefan. 142 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 3: Richard. 143 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: This has been making look easy.

Hiring Morgan 149 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: and Morgan is super easy, Richard, We're gonna go to 150 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: La Chargers. They had this game in hand. They looked 151 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: absolutely dominant. They were giving Aidan O'Connell and his debut 152 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: all the heck in the world. You know, Khalil Mack 153 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: doing his thing, almost breaking an NFL record with six 154 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: sacks against his former team. But lo and behold, Brandon 155 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: Staley is making questiona moves down the stretch in this 156 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: game becomes a heck of a lot closer than a 157 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: lot of people thought it would be. Richard, your thoughts 158 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: on the Chargers, because this team has all the talent 159 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: in the world to be a Super Bowl contender. I 160 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: don't know if Brandon Staley is a guy, your thoughts 161 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: on this team. 162 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 2: I think he's coaching for his life. I think regardless 163 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 2: of how this season goes, unless they get to a 164 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, or AFC Championship. I think he gets the boot. 165 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 2: I think they're looking for a different to go in 166 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 2: a different direction. He continuously shows that he just keeps 167 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 2: making the same mistakes. He makes terrible critical mistakes. I'm 168 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 2: a stretching. The game is hard enough when it's just 169 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: players making mistakes. You know, you can't have coaches, especially 170 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 2: a coach with all these analytics. You know, all you 171 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 2: hear about is analytics, the Chargers, analytics, analytics, fourth down, 172 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 2: they go through all these whatever. But then you make 173 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: critical mistakes down the stretch each and every week, and 174 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 2: then you get bailed out. This week it was a 175 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 2: Sante Samuel Junior who made a heck of a play 176 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 2: at the goal line. Last week it was TJ. Howkinson 177 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 2: dropping the pass at the goal line that gets intercepted. Like, Okay, 178 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 2: you guys keep getting bailed out, but these are games 179 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 2: you probably should have lost. But givet props to Khalil Mack. 180 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 2: He clearly woke up on the right side of the 181 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 2: bed today. Six sacks only what the second player in 182 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 2: the history of the game to have a five plus 183 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 2: sack game, two five plus sacked games and the others. 184 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 2: Dereck Thomas, the great, late great Dereck Thomas, and I mean, 185 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 2: I just don't know about Brandon Staley. He's supposed to 186 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 2: be a defensive coach. They had a little bit better performance, 187 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 2: but they were playing against Aidan O'Connell, not Jimmy g 188 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 2: So this offense wasn't at one hundred percent, and he 189 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 2: was still moving the ball down the field during critical situations. 190 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 2: He moved the ball down the field. Josh Jacobs eight 191 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 2: catches for eighty one yards. He had a better day 192 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 2: in the air than he did on the ground. Mason Crosby, 193 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 2: I mean Max Crosby, Hays and Crosby kick. Max Crosby 194 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 2: deserves a lot of credit. He deserves a lot more 195 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: credit than he's getting. But he plays for the Raiders 196 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 2: and they have always have something overshadow him, whether it's 197 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: the terrible offensive play or the Chandler Jones situation. But 198 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 2: Max Crosby has been an amazing player in the National 199 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: Football League for a long time and it's continuing to 200 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 2: make an impact weekend and week out. I just hope 201 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 2: he gets to a team that could utilize him correctly. 202 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's the San Francisco forty nine Ers, 203 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 2: the Jets, the Cowboys, even like somewhere that's gonna use 204 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 2: him and get him the spotlight that he deserves, because, 205 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 2: my goodness, he's wasting away in Las Vegas and you 206 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 2: hate to see it. 207 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: He's a grinder, Eastern Michigan product. By the way, rich 208 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: who would have thought JJ Watt Central Michigan, Max Crosby 209 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: Eastern Michigan. They got something right going on over here 210 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: in Michigan. Rich But Richard, before we leave this game, 211 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: I mean, you're You're not one. You're one just like 212 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: kohalil Mack that has played against a team you had 213 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: a long tenure with. How much extra motivation does a 214 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: guy like this have whint his old team? What is 215 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 1: a What was it like for you going back to 216 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: Seattle for the first time. 217 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 2: Well, I'm sure there's a ton of extra motivation. I mean, 218 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 2: I don't think this is the first time he's played them. 219 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: You know, they're a division team for these guys, so 220 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 2: he's played the year for a long time. But I 221 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 2: mean it's definitely woke up with something on his mind today. 222 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 2: You don't just wake up and get six sacks, clearly, 223 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 2: because nobody else in the history of the game, have 224 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 2: done it, has done it twice other than he and 225 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 2: Derrick Thomas. But it's cool to see, man, It's it's 226 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: always cool and it's fun. I'm sure he's feeling really good. Obviously. 227 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: The head coach is different some people in the organization, 228 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 2: but the owner is still there and he made his point. 229 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 3: Then you sure did. 230 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 2: For a limited time, you can say forty percent on 231 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: an NFL Plus Premium annual subscription when you sign up 232 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 2: through Plus Play from Verizon.

I did not see this coming 250 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: the Bengals. They need to win desperately, and they went 251 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: into Tennessee and got embarrassed. And you can see the 252 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 1: team is frustrated. Rich Jamar Chase some choice words after 253 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: the game. I'm open. I'm always f and open was 254 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: his comment. Richard, how concerned are you about these Cincinnati Bengals. 255 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 2: I'm really concerned, Mitchell, because I thought this would happen 256 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 2: if Joe Burrow didn't play, if he got if he 257 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 2: went out with the injury, missed a couple of games. 258 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 2: I thought they'd struggle in these couple games. But he 259 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 2: decided to play, and he's not one hundred percent. You 260 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 2: can see that he was twenty for thirty but only 261 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 2: one sixty five. Wasn't really pushing the ball down the field, 262 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 2: and it's almost like the defense doesn't expect him to 263 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 2: push the ball downfield. They're putting a lot of pressure 264 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 2: in his face. They're blitz at him. It's really weird. 265 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 2: But I mean, you got to give Derek Hemry a 266 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 2: lot of credit. He looked like Derek Hemry King Henry 267 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 2: of old twenty two care for one to twenty two 268 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 2: rushing TD, A passing TD. I mean, they're having fun 269 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 2: out there in Tennessee. They're they're doing well. They're playing well. 270 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 2: They're playing great defense and offensively. For the Bengals, they 271 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,839 Speaker 2: just haven't had an ident identity all season. I mean, 272 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 2: they got one win, but in the other two losses 273 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 2: they've been very lopsided. When they lost to the Cleveland Browns, 274 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 2: it was it was the rain, and it was this, 275 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 2: and it was that. But the Browns blew them out 276 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 2: and they just got blown out again, and you just 277 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 2: start to wonder, like, what is do you do? You 278 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 2: need to rest Joe Burrow and let him be fully 279 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 2: healthy if you're gonna have a chance. Now t Higgins 280 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 2: is out, Tyler Boyd hasn't looked great. I don't know 281 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 2: what you do. I don't know what you do. I mean, 282 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 2: Ryan Tannehill played a solid game. He managed the game 283 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 2: like he did touchdown the interception eighteen for twenty five 284 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 2: two forty, but nothing special. There's nothing crazy. But you wonder, like, 285 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 2: what is the problem in Cincinnati because you got teams 286 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 2: like the Baltimore Ravens. They're having their way, they're moving 287 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 2: down the field. I mean, if it wasn't for Deshaun 288 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 2: Watson getting hurt, that would have been the game of 289 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 2: the week probably, But you know, they played the rookie. 290 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 2: He struggled. The Ravens did their thing. You kind of 291 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 2: expect that. Then you have Pittsburgh getting blown out by 292 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 2: the Houston Texans. So all of a sudden, this is 293 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 2: Baltimore's division to lose. You know, they look like the 294 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 2: class of the division. It's not even close. So you wonder, like, 295 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 2: what's really going on. I mean, Cincinnati has to figure 296 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 2: some things out, but it may be time to rest him. 297 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 3: It might. 298 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: And Richard, if they go to Arizona next weekend and 299 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: lose there, there're gonna be a lot of alarm sounding 300 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. I know you don't want to talk about them, 301 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: but they looked damn good today, Richard. 302 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 3: The Dallas Cowboys. 303 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: Absolutely obliterated the New England Patriots and the New England 304 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: Patriots just looked down right terrible. I was listening to 305 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: Julian Edelman talk about the team pregame and he just 306 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: said they struggled in situational football. But Richard, situationally, they 307 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: look terrible. They look terrible from the opening kickoff to 308 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: the finisher. Richard, this team has hit a very very 309 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: low point as an organization, and it makes you really 310 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: truly wonder what would this organization been like without Tom 311 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: Brady because I don't I don't know what they got 312 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: going on here, Richard. I'm interested to hear your thoughts 313 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: about New England. 314 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: His game didn't go out I expected to go. I 315 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: thought Balichick would have a better plan in terms of 316 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 2: the run game, thought he'd try to execute like Arizona did. Obviously, 317 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 2: I didn't see mac Jones being as inefficient as he 318 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 2: was all the turnovers. He turned the ball over twice, 319 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 2: one of them being a pick six him thrown across 320 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 2: the across his body, across that other side of the 321 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 2: feel late in the play, like what are you doing? 322 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 2: And they finally bench him for Bailey za Zappi at 323 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 2: the beginning of the fourth quarter. But it's like, I mean, 324 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 2: you just it's just terrible football. But give all the 325 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 2: credit in the world to the to the Dallas Cowboys. 326 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 2: They played really well in the secondary. Deron Bland had 327 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 2: an outstanding game, was locked down in coverage, took advantage 328 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: of his opportunities that we talked about the pick six, 329 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 2: He had another pick. There were there was some great 330 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 2: things in the past. Rush you know, obviously they lost 331 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 2: their guy eleven from Heaven, as Skip Bayless calls him 332 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 2: eleven from Heaven. Uh, it got a little banged up, 333 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 2: but it looks like he'll be okay U Michaeh Parsons 334 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 2: and uh, there was a fumble recovery to mac Jones 335 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 2: Mac Jones, fumble recovery by Leyton vander ash for a touchdown. 336 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 2: It's two touchdowns by the defense. They they cook him. 337 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 2: You know, they've led the league in turnovers for the 338 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 2: past two years. But I mean, my goodness, we talk 339 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 2: about this on the other show all the time, Like 340 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 2: maybe Belichick is very human in terms of coaching. You know, 341 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 2: you talk, you talk about his record with Tom Brady 342 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 2: and his record without Tom Brady, and it's getting worse 343 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 2: and worse by the day. By the game. You're starting 344 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 2: to see him get a lot of firsts in his career. 345 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 2: This is the first time he's been beaten by thirty 346 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 2: five plus points, it's the first time the largest halftime 347 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 2: deficit of his career. It's just you wonder, like what's 348 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 2: going on. They lose their two best players in the game, 349 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 2: Matthew Judon and Christian Gonzales both get injured in the game. 350 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 2: Zeke who I was expecting to have a big like 351 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 2: revenge game. Six carries for sixteen yards not enough, two 352 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 2: receptions for six yards not enough, no impact at all really, 353 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 2: But then you look on the other side, Dak played 354 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 2: really well, very efficient, twenty eight to thirty four for 355 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 2: two to sixty one in a touchdown, move the ball 356 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 2: down the field. But their red zone woes continue. Their 357 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 2: red zone woes, continued Mitchell. They do not execute in 358 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 2: the red zone. They were zero for three last I looked. 359 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 2: I gotta look how they ended the game. But it 360 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 2: just doesn't feel like they get down there and can 361 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 2: get the job done. And they're gonna We're gonna find 362 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 2: out next Sunday night we way to San Francisco, forty nine. 363 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: Ers we will. I mean, it's their defense. Richard that 364 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: is holding this team together. These big splash plays defensively 365 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: that are are leading to these huge blowouts. And you know, 366 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: for the Patriots, they just lose their game plan right away, 367 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: it seems. I mean, this is a team that was 368 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: hard knows that always run the ball. You're hardly seeing 369 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: Ramandre Stevenson making any big plays. I mean, Zeke Elliott 370 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: against his former team. We already talked about the emotions 371 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 1: of going against your former team. I mean, give the 372 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: guy at least ten ten touches. Man, you only got 373 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: six rush attempts and two catches. But you know, Richard, 374 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,199 Speaker 1: this Dallas Cowboy defense is looking very very good, and 375 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: I know you know a thing or two about Dan Quinn. 376 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: We got a new segment to bring up today. It's 377 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: brought to you by Uber Eats.

They 383 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 2: held the three points, sack Mac Jones twice for ste 384 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 2: fumble returned it for a touchdown, two interceptions, and now 385 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 2: the touchdown. Leyton vander ash Deron Bland both played really 386 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 2: good football. That's this week's almost almost perfect defense of 387 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 2: the Week. And remember you can order almost almost anything 388 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 2: you want with Uber Eats, the official on demand partner 389 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 2: of the NFL. Order. Now, Mitchell, Oh, what happened in 390 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 2: nemb I could not understand what I was seeing. I mean, 391 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 2: they were getting blown out. It looked like all was 392 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 2: lost and Justin Fields had finally arrived. The Justin Fields 393 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 2: that everybody was so high on coming out of Ohio 394 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 2: State had finally arrived almost perfect, perfect seventeen for seventeen. 395 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,959 Speaker 2: He had three touchdowns, he was rolling, they were up 396 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 2: twenty eight to seven, and then they were not. 397 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's demoralizing when you look at Justin Fields 398 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: and the way he's been playing all season, and he 399 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: maybe he's not the guy, but then he just goes 400 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: out and puts up three hundred and thirty five yards, 401 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: four touchdowns, one hundred and thirty two plus passer rating. 402 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: You know, he did turn the ball over a couple times, 403 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: but Richard, this guy went out there and played one 404 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: of the best games of his career and they still 405 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: can't get a win. They're the only team in the NFL. 406 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: I mean, they've lost fourteen straight games. You're starting to 407 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: see these memes out there about the Elon Musk acquiring 408 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: Twitter and every other professional sports teams won a game 409 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: since that date, with the exception of the Chicago Bears. 410 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this marks fourteen straight losses, Richard. The one 411 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: silver lining in this game for them is they do 412 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: hold the top two picks in the draft, So Caleb 413 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: Williams maybe justin fields won't they be there for long? 414 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: But I don't know if he's necessarily the problem. But 415 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: let's talk about the Broncos a little bit. They needed 416 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: to win. They got it. Russell's looking a little bit 417 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: more consistent this year. Are you liking his game right now, Mitchell. 418 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 2: He's been playing fine. He's been playing fine. That defense 419 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 2: has been absolutely atrocious, and they were atrocious until the 420 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 2: second half of that ball game. They came to life. 421 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 2: But Russell twenty one to twenty eight, pretty efficient game, 422 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 2: two twenty three and three touchdowns, no turnovers. That's a 423 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 2: big game for him. They lost Javonte Williams and here 424 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 2: comes Jalel McLoughlin. Seven rushes for seventy two yards, three 425 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 2: receptions for thirty two yards in a touchdown. Kareem Jackson 426 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 2: gets the game sealing interception. They looked really good. But 427 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 2: Justin Fields played the game of his life. Twenty eight 428 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 2: to thirty five, three thirty five, four touchdowns, one interception. 429 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 2: He had a career high in passing yards and passing touchdowns. 430 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 2: He got his boy DJ Moore the ball early and often. 431 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 2: Eight catches for one thirty one in a tug Khalil 432 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 2: Herbert looked good. Everything looked good. Where is the defense? 433 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 2: Where is the defense? The Chicago Bears left their defense 434 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 2: at home in the second half and that's why they 435 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 2: lost the game. They had a chance, Minchal, they had 436 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 2: a chance. They were eight on on Denver's eighteen fourth 437 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 2: and one, could have just kicked the field goal, went 438 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 2: up thirty one to twenty eight, and then Denver would 439 00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 2: have came down and tied it. Maybe he go to 440 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 2: ot and find a way, but they went for it. 441 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 2: They didn't get it. Denver drives down the field, kicks 442 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 2: the field goal, you get another shot at it. Justin 443 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 2: Fields throws his first interception of the game to Kareem Jackson. 444 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 2: So again, what's going on? What's going on with the 445 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 2: Chicago Bears? Ever flus Is. I mean, it's starting to 446 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,479 Speaker 2: seem like he's not the answer in any way. But 447 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 2: we got to see both of these teams. We got 448 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 2: to see the Bears and Commanders this Thursday in Washington, 449 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 2: d C. Mitchell I got the Commanders with how they 450 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 2: played against the Super Bowl runner ups in the Philadelphia Eagles. 451 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 2: I got them winning this game. I hope Justin Fields 452 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 2: keeps playing how he does, but if they have the 453 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 2: one and two picks, I expect him to be playing 454 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 2: for a different team next year. Mitchell I got a 455 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 2: new we did coach. 456 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 1: I agree with you on that the Bears remind me 457 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 1: a lot of the Detroit Lions years ago, that the 458 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: same old Lions mantra was created. No matter how good 459 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: they played, they always found a way to lose the 460 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: game in the fourth quarter. And that's what happened here. 461 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: I mean this, you know, fumble for an or fumble 462 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 1: for a touchdown and this team and then like you said, 463 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 1: not making the right decisions kicking the field goal going 464 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: up ten points instead of going for it. But Richard, 465 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna have fun in Washington with this game next Thursday. 466 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: I have a feeling, man, But. 467 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 2: Right, if it's so fun, join us on Thursday night, 468 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 2: and let's pray. 469 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 3: It'd be a good game. Commanders look halfway decent. 470 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: The other teams that's starting to look good and starting 471 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 1: to surprise quite a bit as the Rams, Richard, and 472 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 1: once Cooper Cup comes back next week, hopefully him and 473 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,400 Speaker 1: Pooka Nakua might form a nice, little formidable wide receiving 474 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 1: core for Matthew Stafford to start slinging the rock around. 475 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: Here was a game the Rams got out to a 476 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,719 Speaker 1: twenty three nothing the lead early. They look like they 477 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: were gonna have a super easy time in Indy, and 478 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: then not so fast. We're going to overtime. Indy has 479 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: all the ample opportunities to win this game. Richard, First 480 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: and foremost, I want you to talk about Hookah Nicole. 481 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: He's become the most receptions of most yards in first 482 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 1: four games in NFL history. 483 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 3: How does this happen? 484 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: And no one really had this guy on their draft boards, 485 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: but the Rams found him and he's been kicking it 486 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: for him right now. 487 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's a perfect storm. It's obviously, Cooper 488 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 2: Cup being out, he would have been their go to guy. 489 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 2: A lot of these targets and catches would have probably 490 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,959 Speaker 2: gone to him. He's been injured and Matthew Stafford has 491 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 2: to have somebody throw to, and he's chosen Pookah and 492 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 2: Nakool and he's taking advantage of every single one of 493 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 2: his opportunities. He had a great game today, he had 494 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: a great game winning touchdown. It's just like he's built. 495 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 2: This offense is built for him. He's built for it, 496 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 2: and they're having a great time. Most receptions and most 497 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 2: yards through the first four games in NFL history, that's history. 498 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 2: That's the entire league. It's so many history books being 499 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 2: rewritten right now with players that you never even heard of, 500 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 2: which is really cool. You love to see it. A 501 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 2: great fifth round pick by the LA Rams because they 502 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 2: didn't have any first round picks Mitchell for so long, 503 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 2: so they have to make it work with whatever they got. 504 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 2: But great for him, Great for Matthew Stafford who had 505 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 2: a good game three nineteen a touchdown and an interception 506 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 2: which was a heck of a play by Kenny Moore. 507 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 2: That was a good game. It ended up being a 508 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 2: good game. The Rams are doing great. I'm sure Sean 509 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 2: is having fun coaching a team with low expectations. They're 510 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 2: going into every game with low expectations and producing, and 511 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 2: I'm sure they can't wait to get Cooper Cup back. 512 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 2: It's going to be a really tough out for a 513 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 2: lot of teams going forward. 514 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 515 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: Well, the other side of this is Anthony Richardson starting 516 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: to look halfway decent. I mean, Andy's got a squad, 517 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 1: but he you know, what are your early impressions of 518 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: him as a quarterback. There was a lot of question 519 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 1: marks about his accuracy coming out of college. Eleven for 520 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 1: twenty five certainly are not the stat line you're looking for, 521 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: but you know, he's a thread on the ground. 522 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 3: Richard, Do you like his game? 523 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 2: I mean, it's still up to be decided to Mitchell. 524 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 2: He hasn't played enough football for me to say if 525 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 2: I like it or not. We saw how the offense 526 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 2: could play with Gardner Minshew at the Helm, and it 527 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: looked a lot different than when Anthony Richardson, which is 528 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 2: the same can be said for Carolina when Andy Dalton 529 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 2: played his career. Backups that can come in and they 530 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 2: can get the job done. They can sing the ball 531 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 2: around the yard and they can put up the numbers. 532 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 2: He's just inaccurate, Mitchell, and there's no way around it, 533 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 2: and he needs to get more accurate. The same questions 534 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 2: that you had coming out of college are the same 535 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 2: questions you have now. He's having for twenty five to 536 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 2: hundred yards, two touchdowns. He didn't turn the ball over, 537 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 2: but you need more from that. He ran it ten 538 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 2: times for fifty six yards, which is fine. He got 539 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 2: a touchdown, but you need a little bit more accuracy, Mitchell. 540 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 2: There were a couple balls in there. I thought he 541 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 2: would probably want back right now. But give him all 542 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 2: the credit in the world that he kept him in 543 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 2: the game. He made some game, you know, some winning 544 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 2: played some winning football down a stretch, but just wasn't 545 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 2: enough to be a veteran quarterback in Matthew Stafford and 546 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 2: the team with the lead playing with the league like 547 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 2: they were. 548 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: Well, the Rams are going to be taken on the 549 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 1: Eagles next week and then the Cold It's got an 550 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: Indivision battle against the Titans, so two interesting matchups. Let's 551 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 1: talk about Philly a little bit here. Rich I again 552 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: another OT thriller, great game. Washington gets up early, Philly 553 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: fights back, gets up, Washington ties the game late. But 554 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: you're the coach. You tie the game against your divisional 555 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: rival on the road. You're hot right now? Do you 556 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: go for two in that situation? Are you just taking 557 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: the ball and going ot with it? 558 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 2: No question? You go for two? No question. You got 559 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 2: all the momentum, you're feeling good. What what do you 560 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 2: got to lose? You don't have anything to lose. You 561 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 2: don't want to go into overtime against a team like this, 562 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 2: that that that technically has you out matched and out gunned. 563 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 2: You take your shot while you got it. You know 564 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 2: they they'll never get another shot at this if you 565 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 2: If you make it, you win. If you don't, you lose. 566 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 2: I think that that was a mistake on their behalf. 567 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 2: They played a conservative and that's how you lose ball 568 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 2: games like that. You know, when you're when you got 569 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 2: everything working for you, you need to take your shot while 570 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 2: you got it. Uh, don't let the other team get 571 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 2: another shot at it. But they had their hands full. 572 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 2: Mitchell with all day always open. AJ Brown nine catches 573 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 2: for one to seventy five and two tucks. I talked 574 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 2: about the rookie corner and Manuel Forbes. He started talking 575 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 2: mess to the wrong one. Mitchell, you cannot talk mess 576 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 2: when you're a young guy to all day. Always open 577 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 2: aj Brown because he humbled him with including the game 578 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 2: winning touchdown or the game you know, the touchdown to 579 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 2: bring him back, to bring him back into the game, 580 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 2: to give him the lead late in the game. He 581 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 2: was having his way out there. Nicholas Morrow had a 582 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 2: heck of a game, three sacks. It's happening for guys 583 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 2: you're not even expecting. They got all these big names 584 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 2: on the defensive line that you're expecting to have these 585 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 2: big sack numbers, and the sacks are covering from Nicholas Morrow. 586 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 2: Jayalen hurt had another great game now seventeen and won 587 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,719 Speaker 2: over the last two seasons. You got to give him 588 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 2: a lot of credit. He's been at the Helm. He's 589 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 2: winning a lot. He's playing winning football each in every week, 590 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 2: no interceptions, twenty five for thirty seven for three nineteen. 591 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 2: People said they have the answers for Jalen Hurts. He's 592 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 2: not gonna have the big passing numbers anymore. He had 593 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 2: the big passing numbers and he still ran it nine 594 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 2: times for thirty four yards. So they got the Eagles 595 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 2: and the Rams next week, Mitchell, that's gonna be a 596 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 2: fun game too. I forward to that again. We got 597 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 2: the Bears and the Commanders, and I got the Commanders 598 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 2: coming out of that with a win. 599 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: Richard, we're talking about it a bit when we were 600 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: together this week. The Eagles have become known for their 601 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: their tush push or brotherly shove that they're calling it 602 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: in Philly. Now, what are your thoughts, I mean, at 603 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: what point do you think do you see the NFL 604 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: changing this rule at all? Do you think it should 605 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: be allowed? Like, what are your thoughts on that play 606 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: because it's becoming unstoppable? 607 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 2: Well, I don't mind to play, you know. I mean 608 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 2: it's QB snake. They get good push. Uh, it's the 609 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 2: assisting the runner that's always gonna be the issue, especially 610 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 2: with the rule and place that they have with the 611 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 2: field goals where you can't there's no pushers all out 612 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 2: and they said there's no pushes because it's an injury 613 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,959 Speaker 2: concern for the offensive line. You got too much pressure, 614 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 2: too much force going on to one person, And the 615 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 2: same can be true truly said about that play, especially 616 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 2: when you got you know, three or four guys behind 617 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts pushing him into the line. You know, that's 618 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 2: a lot of weight on maybe the two D tackles 619 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 2: or the de tackling the linebacker without the ability to 620 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 2: push anybody back through. So I don't know. I don't 621 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 2: know if it should be banned, but it should just 622 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 2: follow the letter of the law for both sides of 623 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 2: the football. You know, if it follows the letter of 624 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 2: the law on neither side can push anybody, then then 625 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 2: have your way. You know, I think they'll still probably 626 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 2: have about the same success rate, but it'd just be 627 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 2: a safer place for everybody. 628 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 3: I'm with you. 629 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: Rich the dark horse in this league. We talked about 630 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: it early in our preseason preview the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 631 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: We said everyone was sleeping on him a little bit. 632 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield has come in to this team, has revitalized 633 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: his career to degree. I mean, he's kind of this 634 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: year's Geno Smith. If you will win Tampa, Richard have 635 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: the lead in the NFC South right now, and they 636 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: went on the road and won in commanding fashion twenty 637 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: six to nine against New Orleans. Your thoughts on Tampa 638 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: Bay and their win today. 639 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 2: Well, my god, d Delaney had another interception back to 640 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: back games he had won against the Eagles, the fantastic 641 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 2: diving interception over Devontae Smith. They were missing Mike Evans 642 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 2: for a majority of the game. He went out with 643 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 2: a hamstring injury, and of course Chris Godwin takes over 644 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 2: eight catches for one fourteen. This boy, I mean, this boy. 645 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 2: Baker looks like something Mitchell. He looks like he's in 646 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 2: a good spot. Dave Canalis is spreading the ball around 647 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,959 Speaker 2: as he should. Vita Veya got him two sacks. I 648 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 2: think they got a chance. Baker Mayfield twenty five and 649 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 2: thirty two, three touchdowns, he had the interception. Yeah, dark horse, 650 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 2: But they they're rolling Mitchell, they're rolling, and the Saints 651 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 2: are always their kryptonite. So for them to win twenty 652 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: six to nine. With the Saints playing Derek Carr, he 653 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 2: didn't play very well. He's twenty three for thirty seven 654 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,959 Speaker 2: for one, twenty seven all check down, so the injury 655 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 2: clearly is bothering him. Alvin Kamara comes back but doesn't 656 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 2: have much of an impact. Had thirteen catches but for 657 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 2: only thirty three yards. I mean to get that. But 658 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 2: on the ground eleven for fifty one, looks like himself, 659 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 2: Michael Thomas four for fifty three, but just doesn't look 660 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 2: like they have enough with Derek Carr playing as conservative 661 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 2: as he. 662 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: Did, well, Richard, the Bucks go on by next week 663 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: and then they got a real test at home. Do 664 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,719 Speaker 1: you know who they're playing, Richard? They're playing my hometown 665 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,239 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. That is going to be a showdown. You know, 666 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: three and one now one loss team. The Lions go 667 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 1: out to Carolina next week, or stay home and take 668 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: care of business against Carolina and then go on the road. 669 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: That might be the game of the week. My man, 670 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: who knows? I know you have some friends down south 671 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: in Houston. Demko Ryans You played under him, right, rich. 672 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 2: I did well. I'm not under him, but he was 673 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 2: in linebackers coach when I played for the San Francisco 674 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 2: forty nine ers, and a great coach, a great man. 675 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,359 Speaker 1: Are you really high at what you're seeing out there 676 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: in Houston right now? Because he turned this around quick? Yeah, 677 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: I mean I'm super surprised. The cupboard seemed bare out there. 678 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: You know, you couldn't name receivers that they had. I mean, 679 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: Tank Dale looks like an answer. Nico Collins looks like 680 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: a really good receiver for him right now. He had 681 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: seven catches for one sixty eight and two touchdowns. But 682 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: overall it's just CJ. Stroud is answering the bail. 683 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 2: He's playing turnover free three consecutive games with two touchdowns 684 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 2: and no interceptions. That's winning football. You got to give 685 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,879 Speaker 2: him a lot of credit. The first rookie with two 686 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty yards passing, two touchdowns and no interceptions 687 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 2: in three straight games he played against Mike Tomlin, and 688 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin was what something like twenty three and four 689 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 2: versus rookie quarterbacks or something crazy like that. So now 690 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 2: he's twenty three and five, which Mike Tomlin has been 691 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 2: coaching a long time, and he got beat by a 692 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 2: rookie quarterback. And Kenny Pickett, Yes he can, Kenny Pickett Mitchell, 693 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 2: Yes he can. Kenny get picked again. Yes he can. 694 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:15,320 Speaker 2: He gets picked again. By Steven Nelson, the former Pittsburgh Steeler. 695 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 2: Kenny Pickett looked like the answer in the offseason, in 696 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 2: the preseason, but he does not look like it in 697 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 2: the regular season. The ass Tomlin will there be changes? 698 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 2: He said, al yeah, They're going to be changes, and 699 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 2: I look forward to seeing what those changes will be 700 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 2: because they have to find a way because this team 701 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 2: was supposed to be picking early in the draft this year. 702 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 2: They weren't supposed to be beating you, especially about twenty four points. 703 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 2: So a lot of yeah, a lot of guys looking 704 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:44,879 Speaker 2: in the mirror right now. 705 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:45,760 Speaker 3: Well, CJ. 706 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: Stroud looks like he might be the guy out of 707 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,720 Speaker 1: this draft class, Richard. I mean, he's got sneaky athleticism, 708 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 1: he's got a great arm. I mean, obviously there's a 709 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: lot of I guess stereotypes from these quarterbacks coming out 710 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: of Ohio State. We haven't seen one that's truly paid doubt. 711 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: C J. Stroud might be the difference in that, rich 712 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he's got a legitimate arm. He's a pass 713 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: first quarterback with you know, sneaky athleticism back there too. 714 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:10,800 Speaker 3: So who knows. 715 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 1: Man Houston might be one of those surprise teams this year, 716 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: especially in a softer division, and maybe we got to 717 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: keep an eye out for them. 718 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, you definitely got to keep an eye out for him. 719 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 2: They got to get running back. They got CJ. Stroud. 720 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,320 Speaker 2: Nico Collins is coming into his own. This offense is 721 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 2: running well. Dimenko got that defense playing well, held Pittsburgh 722 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 2: to six points. It's a great game. I'm looking forward 723 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 2: to see how they do next week versus the Falcons, 724 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 2: which is another beatable team who just lost to who 725 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 2: just lost in London today to the Jacksonville Jaguars. 726 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: Well, Richard, before we wrap things up, we got a 727 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: big game tomorrow night the Seattle Seahawks. Your Seattle Seahawks 728 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: are on the road against the Giants. Sakwan is doubtful 729 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:57,840 Speaker 1: for the game right now. Last I saw, Richard, Vegas 730 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 1: has got this at about a three point line right 731 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:04,760 Speaker 1: now in Seattle's favor. What do you think the outcome 732 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 1: is gonna be tomorrow? I mean, I got to think 733 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 1: that Seattle is gonna come away with his victory. But 734 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 1: the Giants are tough, man, So what do you think? 735 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I gotta expect Seattle to win this game. I 736 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 2: expect him to take strides defensively in a positive way. 737 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 2: They always struggle with running quarterbacks, similar to the San 738 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 2: Francisco forty nine ers, But Gino's playing some fantastic football. 739 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 2: Tyler Lockett was back and he's in rare form. DK 740 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 2: Metcalf is looking for some touchdowns he needs. He's been 741 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 2: getting the yard and he needs to find paint pay dirt, 742 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 2: so I expect him to win. Your boy K nine 743 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,399 Speaker 2: is going to be doing well. You saw shaping ay. 744 00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 2: He look like he had explosives in his pass last week, 745 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 2: so I expect him to come away with a win 746 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 2: tomorrow night convincingly. 747 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 3: I don't disagree with you, Richard. 748 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: I will let you wrap this up as we conclude 749 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: our Week four Reaction podcast. 750 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 2: Well, thank you.
