1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,879 Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. 2 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 2: What is up? Straight Fire? I am It's me Jason McIntyre, 3 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 2: Straight Boyer for Thursday, August twenty eight. Boy, I'm not 4 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 2: gonna lie double duty this week. Oh it's a tough Unfortunately, 5 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 2: Rob g in the Place to Be has been delivering 6 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: some banger guests. So we got a certain Chiefs fan on. 7 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's not happy with me. Nor Nora is 8 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 2: Chief's Nation And listen, I get it. I will say 9 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 2: on some of this stuff, you know, hosting the Herd 10 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:41,959 Speaker 2: this week, some of this stuff that pops. I mean, 11 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,159 Speaker 2: I said Jalen Hurts was the best dual threat quarterback 12 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 2: in the league and perhaps all time. And the logic 13 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 2: was simple and sound and very basic. He's thrown for 14 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 2: fifteen or more touchdowns and rushed for ten or more 15 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 2: touchdowns four straight years. Nobody else in league history has 16 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 2: done that more than twice. He's done a four straight years. 17 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 2: I get it. Josh Allen is an awesome machine. He's 18 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: a behemoth. He is great at occasionally scrambling. Jalen Hurts 19 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: still has the only automatic play in the NFL, the 20 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:18,320 Speaker 2: Brotherly Chef. It's automatic. It's unstoppable like Josh Allen's phenomenal. 21 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 2: He's the MVP. Lamar has two vps. There's one unstoppable 22 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 2: play in the league, and Jalen Hurts has it. And 23 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 2: if it's just insane that people think that, that's like 24 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 2: an unbelievably ridiculous take. Oh wow, better running quarterbacks. I 25 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 2: didn't say that. I didn't say running. I said he's 26 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 2: the best dual threat. Michael Vick was awesome. I love 27 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 2: Michael Vick, huge fan. Cam Newton had an amazing MVP season. 28 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: But if you look at the totality of their career 29 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: and what they did, you just show me the Jalen 30 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: Hurts passing numbers next to the Cam Newton It's laughable. 31 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 2: I know you could say, well, Cam Newton didn't have 32 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: two All pros. He had Greg Olsen, who's a borderline 33 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: Hall of Famer, agains Steve Smith, who might be in 34 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame. I don't even know. I know 35 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: he's in the Hall of Fame. I've been doing crazy 36 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 2: stuff and not being a nice guy. But uh, the 37 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: reality is, like, yes, some of these guys were really 38 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: good due a threat quarterbacks, I just put Jalen Hurts first, 39 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 2: I mean he has a Super Bowl MVP beating Patrick 40 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 2: Mahomes times in Mahomes has been in the playoffs. Do 41 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: you know how many quarterbacks have beaten him? It's Joe 42 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,679 Speaker 2: Burrow and Arrowhead Tom Brady and Arrowhead Tom Brady in 43 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl and now Jalen Hurts in the Super Bowl. 44 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 2: That's it. In the playoffs, Like Mahomes is really tough 45 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 2: to be and you could say he's not playing Mahomes, 46 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: He's playing Pagnolo Finees Bagnolo elite defensive coordinator. Come on, anyways, 47 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: people just going crazy on the internet. It could be 48 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: that we're starved for football, but fear not. We have 49 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 2: college this weekend, three really good games.

So uh so, uh you know, I mean, look, 79 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 3: I guess the one good thing about that is that 80 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 3: there shouldn't really be any distraction so to speak, as 81 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 3: people will like to say that took place last year, 82 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 3: This is this upcoming is because we already know what 83 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 3: the end result is gonna be. 84 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 2: Oh really, no distruct The planning of the wedding of 85 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 2: the century, a royal wedding is not a distraction. 86 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 3: Well, he's not gonna be one to play. He's gonna 87 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 3: be paying for it. But I don't think he has 88 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 3: to plan anything. 89 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,679 Speaker 2: Well wait a minute, listen, are you married, Derek? 90 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 3: Uh No, not yet? 91 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, just as a heads up when you're 92 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 2: getting married, obviously the wife is gonna handle most of 93 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 2: the stuff because she's gonna, you know, want it.

You're plugged in. 105 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing, funny story, true story. As a 106 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 3: matter of fact, last year, I can't remember. This might 107 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 3: have been after one of the games. I was interviewing 108 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 3: Kelsey because I don't I don't try to. I don't 109 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 3: try to interview when everybody else does. I always try 110 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 3: to get my interview scheduled, yeah, weeks in advance, so 111 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 3: when we do talk is one on one, and I 112 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 3: just happened to ask him after we finished. I said, look, man, 113 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 3: I don't talk about you first left, you know, they said, 114 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 3: Do I respect that? I said, but if by chance, 115 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 3: something happens between you and Taylor and you know you, 116 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 3: you know, you decide to get on the knee or something, 117 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 3: you break down and a brother get an invite to 118 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,119 Speaker 3: the wedding. He told me, where batim d You've always 119 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 3: been a real one. I got you. So I can 120 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 3: only take the man at his word. So if he 121 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 3: invites me cool. If if he forgets, of course, I 122 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 3: will remind Huddle. I will remind her because all this 123 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 3: happened before, you know, before the you know, after the 124 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 3: last preseason game, so we didn't get a chance to 125 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 3: talk about this particularly thing. But of course talk about 126 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 3: it next week when the locker rooms open, and so 127 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 3: I'll kind of bring that up to him and see 128 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 3: whether that he remembers it. 129 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 2: You know, remember that you imagine what your friends will 130 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 2: say if you're like, hey, guys, this weekend, I'm out 131 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 2: of the mix, I'm going to the tailor sof wedding. 132 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 3: Well, first of all, if it actually does take place, 133 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure I'll have to be sworn a secrecy 134 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 3: so until until it actually happened, so I wouldn't bring 135 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 3: it up. 136 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know what you get them as a 137 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 2: wedding gift. By the way, what do you think they 138 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 2: go with? A band or a DJ? Just curious. 139 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 3: I think they will go with a band because it's 140 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 3: I couldn't see her doing the DJ. Probably a band, hmm. 141 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 2: Interesting, You might be right on that. I was thinking 142 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,559 Speaker 2: you got to go DJ at the wedding. 143 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 3: I mean, you need to. I think at the reception 144 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 3: you probably might. But but oh, that's what I meant. 145 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 2: That's what I meant at the reception. Obviously, wedding, you 146 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: go back, reception, you gotta go. 147 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 3: That's that's a tough one, man. I don't know that. 148 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 3: I mean, because you look, you're talking about somebody who 149 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 3: is bigger than life. You know, she's on that level 150 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 3: with behind you. So I don't know what you would do. 151 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: And that's a good question for Kelsey during the media 152 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: session next time with him. Forget about erasing career lows 153 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 2: in touchdowns and yards? Hey, are you going to get 154 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 2: a band or a DJ for the reception. In serious news, though, 155 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs she Rice will be suspended for 156 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 2: the first six games of the season. That popped as 157 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: we record this on Wednesday's popped on Wednesday morning. That 158 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 2: seems like a big hit Hollywood Brown. The idea of 159 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 2: him remains greater than the actual player on the field. Obviously, 160 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 2: they still have worthy. I think this is a big 161 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 2: ding early and listen, you've seen that schedule. It is 162 00:07:58,040 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 2: difficult early. 163 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 3: Here's the thing, they always knew there would be there 164 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 3: would be a portion of the season they were they 165 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 3: were going to be without Rashid. I think they would 166 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 3: rather have it now versus in the middle of the 167 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 3: season that originally he was scheduled to meet with the 168 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 3: NFL and and I guess Sue Robinson around September thirtieth, 169 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 3: So of course that would have taken place after Week four, 170 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 3: and who knows what would have happened there. I think 171 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 3: the biggest fear that was taking place in why it 172 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 3: was to rush to her up and get to settle, 173 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 3: because while the league was looking for ten games and 174 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,079 Speaker 3: she was looking for possibly six whatever, Sue Robinson would 175 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 3: have had the option to, you know, make it as 176 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 3: long as she wanted to. So you could have been 177 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 3: in a situation where he plays the first four or 178 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 3: five games and could easily have been suspended the rest 179 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 3: of the season, and there's no chance of appeal about that, 180 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 3: because if you remember, I think Deshaun Watson originally got 181 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 3: like six games for his for his and then it 182 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 3: got extended to eleven. So that was an option that 183 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 3: she had that the you know, the independent judge had 184 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 3: that they could rease it or decrease it and you 185 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 3: couldn't appeal that. So instead of instead of you know, 186 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 3: kind of play the odds on that, I think it 187 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 3: was better that they were able to settle and come 188 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 3: to an agreement of the six games. 189 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, there was a lot of hype about the offense, 190 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 2: and it could still come to fruition later in the 191 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 2: season with Rice and everybody healthy. But I just daren't. 192 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 2: I'm not being negative here, I'm just being real. I'm 193 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,959 Speaker 2: not being This is just honest. This is just the facts. 194 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 2: The Kansas City Chiefs, I look around the roster and 195 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 2: I'm like, where did they improve this offseason? Because I 196 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 2: know the Raiders improved, they got a new coach, they 197 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 2: got a new quarterback, they got a star running back. 198 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 2: We know the Broncos have the best defense in the league, 199 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: and the Chargers had a pretty solid draft. I just 200 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 2: I'm looking at the Chiefs pinpoint to me an area 201 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 2: where they improved, and if you say backup tackle, it's 202 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 2: stealing more from the Niners. That's fine, but we all 203 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 2: know that real improvement, you know. 204 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 3: I do believe that they on the offensive line, at 205 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 3: least in the area of left tackle. I think Josh 206 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 3: Simmons is going to be a vast improvement over the 207 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 3: last two uh over the last two left tackles that 208 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 3: the Chiefs have had, including Kingsley who moves over to guard, 209 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 3: along with jan Ye Morris, who's a backup. Obviously, you 210 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 3: get Juwan Taylor who's still there. You bring back Craig 211 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 3: Humphrey and along with along with Trady Smith on their extensions. 212 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 3: Here's the thing, it's it's it's not really it's not 213 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 3: really a matter of them quote unquote improving overall, because 214 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 3: I do think that they've gotten better overall as a team. 215 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 3: To your point, Now, look, I've seen a lot of 216 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 3: your takes. I don't think there's been any year that 217 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 3: you that you've had the Chiefs either making the playoffs 218 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 3: or winners. So so so let's put that out there. 219 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 2: Now. 220 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 3: Let's put because you know it takes. It takes a 221 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 3: stretch even for me from time to time. But I 222 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 3: respect because at least you stand on it. But here's 223 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 3: the thing. The Raiders are always going to be the Raiders. 224 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 3: The Raiders will shoot themselves in the foot when it 225 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 3: comes to Pimoty's late game situations no matter who the 226 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 3: head coach. And we've seen that the charters from time 227 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 3: to time, Jim marl Ball gets in this. Uh you know, 228 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 3: Jim Marrowle gets in his own way, and I just 229 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 3: don't have enough traps when it comes to boy wonder 230 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 3: as in as in justin Herbert. You know, at the 231 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 3: end of the day he will make a mistake, he 232 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 3: would try to press and do too much. Win it 233 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 3: matters most the Broncos. Broncos are good. Defense is solid. 234 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 3: They probably should have they probably should have beaten the Chiefs. 235 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 3: And you know in the first game, work in the 236 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 3: game at Arrowhead, but you know, uh fate had otherwise 237 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 3: with that field goal. So if anybody improves the most, 238 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 3: it has the best chance of perhaps keeping the Chiefs 239 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 3: and winning the division again. I will give it to 240 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 3: the Broncos. However, I just don't think offensively they'll be 241 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 3: able to put enough points on why I think the 242 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 3: Chiefs at the end of the day. Defensively, you know 243 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 3: you still got stags and you shall have a lot 244 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 3: of those core players on defense that at the biggest moments, 245 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 3: with the brightest lights, they still know how to show 246 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 3: up and play. 247 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 2: So clearly one of us thinks that the Chiefs are 248 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 2: going to the playoffs. The other thing that the Chiefs 249 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 2: are probably gonna win the Super Bowl. 250 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 3: I do have to get there, get there. 251 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 2: Who's the biggest competition for the Chiefs in the ANFC? 252 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: Tough one. If I had to go with it, I'd 253 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 3: say Baltimore. Man, It's just it's something about the a 254 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 3: f C north Man and and Baltimore I think is 255 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 3: a more complete team both offensively and defensively. I think, 256 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: I think, you know, when you when you look at 257 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 3: a team like Cincinnati, Cincinnati is gonna be greater, They're 258 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 3: gonna be putting points on the board. But they but 259 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 3: with their defense, I know, they just got hindersing to 260 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: you know, to a deal this week. That defense still 261 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,719 Speaker 3: gives up too many points and gives up it gives 262 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 3: us too much, uh yards on the ground. And so 263 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 3: if I if I had to say the most complete team, 264 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 3: I would give it to Baltimore. Obviously, people are gonna 265 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 3: put Buffalo up in that mix. Uh you know. I 266 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 3: mean they're in a week high there during the week 267 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 3: division with the AFC East, so they'll, you know, so 268 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 3: they'll they'll be at it at the end along along 269 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 3: with Baltimore. Now, the Chiefs do play the Chiefs do 270 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 3: play both teams again this year, both Baltimore and Buffalo. 271 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 3: And if Buffalo normally finds a way to not Kansas 272 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 3: City off in the regular season, that's fine. You know 273 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 3: they can have the regular season title when it matters most. 274 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 3: Kansas City has been able to beat both teams when 275 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 3: it counts most in the postseason. So if it's still 276 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 3: if it still works out that way, but obviously the 277 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 3: Chiefs can't. Probably well, it probably would face both depending 278 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 3: on WW the record's in. But if I had to 279 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 3: choose a team that could knock Kansas City off, it 280 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 3: would be Baltimore this year. 281 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 2: Interesting, so Baltimore's favored in fifteen of seventeen games. They 282 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,319 Speaker 2: are underdogs at Buffalo in the opener just one and 283 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 2: a half, and then a dog at KC. Meanwhile, Buffalo 284 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 2: is favored in every game this season. Now, Buffalo's schedule 285 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,439 Speaker 2: is cake dre and I'm sure you've seen it. Yeah here, 286 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 2: I mean basically the quarterbacks they have to face away 287 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 2: from home or like Spencer Rattler drink may you know, 288 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, not Spencer Ratan, Sorry Michael Pennox, Bryce Young 289 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 2: to uh justin Fields. The best guy, I guess is 290 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 2: c J. Stroud, And I don't know about you. I 291 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 2: don't think as holy as c J. Stroud as everybody 292 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 2: else does. The guy had one good season. 293 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 3: Let's be real, so he's only played two seasons, to 294 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 3: be fair. 295 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 2: I know, but we put him on this pedestal after 296 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: one year. I mean, freaking Jalen Hurts is out here 297 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 2: going to two super Bowls winning, being the Super. 298 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 3: Bowl Jon quarterback Jason Technically, that's what everybody's doing with 299 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 3: with the with the Jayden in DC as well right now. 300 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 2: So I mean, I mean he had one season, no, no. 301 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 3: I get it. But but but right now, if you 302 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 3: look at it, people are saying Jayden Daniels is probably 303 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 3: top five, you know, after the first four they put 304 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 3: him in that, in that number five position right now. 305 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, but yeah, where do you stand on that? 306 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 2: Aren't you all? I need more than seventeen games worth 307 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 2: of data? I mean, shit, brock Perdy's got like three 308 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 2: good seasons. Where's he? H? 309 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 3: Well, I don't think he's top five, Okay, I don't think. Okay, 310 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 3: but you're asking me, so if you're asking me for me, 311 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 3: even though he the little hurt, I would give it 312 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 3: to Matthew Matthew Stafford out of out of l A one, 313 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 3: you know, he's one. And of course, you know, we 314 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 3: look at a couple other quarterbacks I think and now, 315 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 3: I do think Jalen Hurts is top seven. I give 316 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 3: him seven just because you know there is more to 317 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 3: be desired offensively when he has the ball. But he 318 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 3: is a winner, and he's a leader and that and 319 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 3: that goes a long way. And he is someone that 320 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 3: has beat Patrick Mahomes at the highest level. Winning counts 321 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 3: most and I take that into account as well. 322 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 2: Where are you on the NFC. You seem to think 323 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: Chiefs will go to the Super Bowl? 324 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: I'm not. 325 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 2: I think NFC is kind of weak. I don't know. 326 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 2: Is it Niners, you got Eagles, you got. 327 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 3: Look, people think that this can't happen, but I think 328 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 3: it could. It could. Essentially, I think we're going to 329 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 3: see the rematch in week number two. I think the 330 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 3: Eagles and the Chiefs go go right back again. 331 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: What like, it's weird. Last summer, Darren, all we heard 332 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 2: was can the Chiefs three peat? Can they three I 333 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 2: haven't heard one person say are the Eagles going to repeat? 334 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 2: It's like nobody's even talking about them. 335 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 3: You know what. But here's the thing, they're not even 336 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 3: talking about it. One of the things that that that 337 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 3: concern me. And I know you and I talked. I 338 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 3: think either after the AFC Championship game or close to 339 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. You have me on your podcast. You 340 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 3: know I always told people that, you know, to me 341 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 3: to to start, I always in Kansa city can get 342 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 3: to Super Bowl. When they get there, it's a fifty 343 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 3: to fifty shot because I'm not going to disrespect or 344 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 3: take away from the other team because they had to 345 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 3: do a lot to get there as well. So my 346 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 3: thing is I never said the Chiefs are gonna win it. 347 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 3: I always say they'll get there, and then you know, 348 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 3: the chess fall, let the chists fall where they may. 349 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 3: The thing is, when when those two teams met, I 350 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 3: saw something. I guess when it you know, when it 351 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 3: came open to night or whatever. The seriousness in which 352 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 3: the Eagles took, you know, took this Super Bowl because 353 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 3: you got to remember and and that game two years ago, 354 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 3: and what was it than lost uh uh in Arizona. 355 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 3: You know, they had the ball on their last drive 356 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 3: and and and they lost the game. You know, they 357 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 3: lost thirty eight thirty one or thirty thirty five, and 358 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 3: and and that's something that they had to live with 359 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 3: for you know, most of the players for the last 360 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 3: two years, they got back to the Chiefs were looking 361 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 3: to make history. The Eagles were looking for revenge and 362 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 3: and and and that revenge for them tasted a lot 363 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,479 Speaker 3: much better, you know, take tastes more better than it 364 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 3: was for the Chiefs to try to make history. And 365 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 3: I also thought the Chiefs were a little bit distracted 366 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 3: when again, I know, President Trump was there and some 367 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 3: of the players wanted to make you know, go out 368 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 3: go out their way to uh to shake hands and 369 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 3: and and try to get pictures with Trump, while the Eagles, 370 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 3: they you know, they didn't care. They were just ready 371 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 3: for kickoff. And literally after after the opening drive, when 372 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 3: the Chiefs couldn't convert on that opening drive, when Kelsey 373 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 3: dropped their third down pass, I knew at that time 374 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 3: Chiefs wasn't winning that super Bowl. And that's hard for 375 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 3: me to say for someone it was just zero zero, 376 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 3: but just how they started off the game. They neglected 377 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 3: to run the football, and they were trying to make 378 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 3: it all about you know, making Patrick a three times 379 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 3: super Bowl, you know, MVP and and all this other stuff, 380 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 3: well uh uh and and make history and stuff in 381 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 3: the three peton versus just trying to do what got 382 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 3: you that which is running the football and some of 383 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,120 Speaker 3: the other things that they did, and I think they 384 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 3: got off track leading up to the game and the 385 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 3: game itself. 386 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 2: Wait, Darren, just for clarity here, you sound like you're 387 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 2: saying it was less about the Eagles and more about 388 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 2: the ch Is that accurate or no? 389 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no, it's a mixed to both. 390 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 3: But no, the Eagles kicked the Chiefs ass. Let's let 391 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 3: it listen. I was there. I hated to see that 392 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 3: they kicked. They kicked their ass. I'm just saying that 393 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 3: the Chiefs, and look and and Ady Reid admitted later 394 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 3: later on at the combine that they got away from 395 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 3: running the football. They got away from from from what 396 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,959 Speaker 3: they normally do. I could remember they were, you know, 397 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 3: outside the last game which most of the stars and play. 398 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 3: They were fifteen and one. I mean, the only game 399 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: that they had lost during the regular season besides the 400 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 3: last game was against was against Buffalo. So, you know, 401 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 3: so to get to the Super Bowl and you essentially 402 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,959 Speaker 3: with your starters, only lose that one game against Buffalo, 403 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 3: and you you know, you give up the lastkiing because 404 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 3: you didn't have a reason play. I mean that you know, 405 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 3: you had to be a great team and offensive east defensively, 406 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 3: you know, saying they get there, and so I just 407 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 3: think that I think the Eagles did a lot much 408 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 3: better preparation when it came to winning that game than 409 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 3: the Chiefs did. 410 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, okay, on that I would I would agree on. 411 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 412 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at foxsports Radio 413 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: dot com and within the iHeartRadio app search FSR to 414 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: listen live. 415 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 2: I will say the two times the Chiefs have gotten 416 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl, essentially their offensive line just got overwhelmed. 417 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 2: So they lose Toney, who was their best offensive Wow, 418 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. He was excellent last year. He was their 419 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 2: most flexible, played everywhere. And now it sounds like Taylor, 420 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 2: who's a disaster on the line, is their right tackle, 421 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 2: and you could admitute he's a disaster. It's fine, he 422 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 2: false starts all the time, blah blah blah. And then 423 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 2: Josh Simmons of the rookie it was a super promising player, 424 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 2: but's coming off a massive injury. We'll see. I don't 425 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 2: know how you can feel optimistic with that going into 426 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 2: the season. I mean, I I did read all the 427 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 2: Oh my. 428 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 3: God, did you're not set year? 429 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 2: I saw last year. 430 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. So I mean, if you and 431 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 3: and Wyym Morris, if you go back to the prime 432 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 3: time I'm sorry to the Amazon Prime game that that 433 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 3: Black Friday game. Look, look late in the fourth quarter, 434 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 3: Patrick mahomes H in the second half, Patrick's snapping uh, 435 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 3: not not only on Wyyan Morris, but but at the 436 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 3: coaching staff talking about get him out of here because 437 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 3: he was getting he was getting taken to the woods shed. Now, 438 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 3: obviously the Raiders and and and and the D line 439 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 3: are not to be scuffled with. However, the lack of 440 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 3: protection and that that that that that left tackle position 441 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 3: was facing most of the last season. Look, I'm a 442 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 3: big proponent of I don't know, I don't even want 443 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 3: Josh Simmons start, and I don't like a rookie starting 444 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 3: in that position. I wish I wish that they would 445 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 3: have gotten tuzzled at somebody, be personally, because to me, 446 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 3: if you got a half a billion dollar investment, are 447 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 3: you really willing to risk it on a rookie, you know, 448 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 3: versus somebody who has the experience of all pro someone 449 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 3: like that that has experienced, but they believe enoughing and 450 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 3: in this kid versus you know, the previous two. I 451 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 3: would have thought that they would have brought back Donovan 452 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 3: Smith last year. They of course, they of course had 453 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,959 Speaker 3: had the had the player that they that they had 454 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 3: traded for what Arizona His name just slistam at the moment. 455 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 3: But and I thought that they should have went on 456 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 3: and put him back in at left tackle for the 457 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 3: Super Bowl and move Tuney back at guard. But they didn't. 458 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 3: But again, at the end of the day, I'm not 459 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 3: taking nothing away from from what happened in the game 460 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 3: because the Eagles, I think just they were just a 461 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 3: better team that day. 462 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 2: What would you say the odds are Travis Kelsey retires 463 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 2: after the season, regardless if they missed the playoffs, win 464 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, losing the second round, whatever. Do you 465 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 2: think he's automatically retiring after the season. 466 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 3: If they win, he comes back. That's the way. 467 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 2: If they win, he returns to go for an other one. 468 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 3: Yep, that that that's just how he's built. He's always 469 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 3: Look if they if they would have won, he probably 470 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 3: would have gone off to the sunset. But but I 471 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 3: also know I know Travils enough. Look, I've covered him 472 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 3: since he did it. I know him well enough that 473 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 3: he would have tried to go for four in a row. 474 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 3: So I mean that's just and again it just it 475 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 3: just depends on how the season plays out, the wear 476 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 3: and tear, you know, you know how much he's utilized. Again, 477 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 3: I've got to, man, I think you and I have 478 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 3: to have this conversation and you know, as we get 479 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 3: to the playoffs versus you know, to see how the 480 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 3: season unfolds, you know, to really come back and and 481 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 3: and and answer that question for you. But if they 482 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 3: were to win, I would I would submit that he 483 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 3: would come back. 484 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: Wow, that's a shocker. Now what about Andy Reid? Does 485 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 2: he say, hey, he's. 486 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 3: Not going No, no, no, now Andy, Look man, Andy 487 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 3: has signed a new five year deal last year. As 488 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 3: long as he's got my homes healthy and and and 489 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 3: a good chance one. Andy is trying to win, you know, 490 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 3: and he's trying to go for a couple more records. 491 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 3: But the the one thing I love about any and 492 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 3: I've seen this every year, especially to a training camps, 493 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 3: as young as the team continued to gets, it makes 494 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 3: him younger. He loves being around, and I guess if 495 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 3: the team was losing, that'd be one thing. But with 496 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 3: the success that he's you know that they're getting.

Now, tell me 512 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 3: your a f C West AFC stuff and where can't 513 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 3: see fire? I want you on the record for my 514 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 3: own need. 515 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll go Broncos, Chargers, Chiefs, Raiders. 516 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 3: Oh third place? Oh okay, yeah, okay, well. 517 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 2: I have I have Chiefs missing the playoffs. I know 518 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 2: they hate me, but listen, a multitude of reasons. I mean, 519 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 2: but besides the offensive line issues, Kelsey going downhill coming 520 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 2: off his worst season. I mean, he's gonna lead the 521 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 2: league in commercials. 522 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 3: And you know they're still in fifteen to two last year, right. 523 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, they won eleven to zero in one score games. 524 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 2: There's zero chance they sniff that again. Maybe they go, 525 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 2: then they're not could play eleven of them. Let's say 526 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,360 Speaker 2: they go. They dropped the four and six in one 527 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,400 Speaker 2: score games, which is normal. There's always regression there. All 528 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,400 Speaker 2: of a sudden, you're not fifteen wins anymore. You're looking 529 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 2: at like eight, nine to ten. The schedule is unforgiving. Buffalo, 530 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 2: by the way, has the easiest schedule in the league. 531 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,239 Speaker 3: No, no, I get that, but Jason, But Jason, even if 532 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 3: you look at the schedule, you know, I would say, 533 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:52,439 Speaker 3: you know, maybe Philly Baltimore and you know, even if 534 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 3: you want to give it a Buffalo, I guess, you know. 535 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 3: But as a team overall skilled player and stuff, the 536 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 3: Chiefs still have the you know, maybe outside of Philly, 537 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 3: the Chiefs, you have the best skilled players that's going 538 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 3: to be on that field. I mean, yeah, I said, 539 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 3: I said, I said, with the exception of possibly feel 540 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 3: I still think quarterback is still is still going to 541 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 3: be my home. But I'm saying, but wide receivers, I 542 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 3: would give that to the Eagles. D line ed you know, 543 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 3: I'd say, I push offensive line, I would give it 544 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 3: to the Eagles. I'm saying, but some of the skilled positions, 545 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,959 Speaker 3: you know, running backs I would give to you know, 546 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 3: I give to uh the Eagles. But you know, but coaching, 547 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 3: I'm gonna still give to injury. I'm saying, Andy Reid 548 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 3: and and even spags on the defense side of football. 549 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 3: So I'm saying, when it, you know, when it comes 550 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 3: to to the to the small minute things, especially when 551 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 3: you talk about those close score games, those one score games, 552 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 3: that comes down to coaching, coaching and players and stuff, 553 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 3: I'm still gonna give the edge to the Chiefs winning 554 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 3: matters most because again, the Chiefs will allow other teams 555 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 3: to make those mistakes. And while fans get upset about 556 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 3: the Chiefs winning and win the score, one score games 557 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:58,439 Speaker 3: don't mean mater I have the Chiefs get mad at 558 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 3: the other teams for not being able to overcome their 559 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 3: their deficits of their mistakes that they make. That the 560 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 3: Chiefs force him to do. 561 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, let me ask you this, who would you rather 562 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 2: have skill position wise? Just skill position, Jaguars are Chiefs. 563 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 3: I still take the Chiefs. 564 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 2: I mean, Brian Thomas is better than any is better 565 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 2: than Racie Rice and Travis Hunter. If we're to believe 566 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 2: the hype is amazing. I think et n is better 567 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 2: than Isaiah Pacheco. I mean, obviously you know they're they're 568 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 2: good at tight end. But I'm gonna give you the 569 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 2: nod on Kelsey. I mean, Jags have a legit offense. 570 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 2: And oh, by the way, those tackles for the Chiefs 571 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: are gonna find out in Week two against Philly and 572 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 2: in Week three against the Giants that defensive front for 573 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 2: the Giants is formidable. And now the rest of the 574 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 2: team stinks, but they're frank s filthy. 575 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 3: You're making a seam that the Chiefs aren't going to 576 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 3: be appeared for these for these matchups. 577 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,360 Speaker 2: The Chiefs are going to show up, Yeah, I think. 578 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 3: Yeah. So I'm saying, so, you know the other teams, 579 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 3: you know, they got to make sure that they do 580 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 3: their exits and those as well. Again, I'm not I'm 581 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 3: not too concerned. Look, the Eagles game, of course, will 582 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 3: be on U off network. It'll be an arrowhead. Of 583 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 3: course I'll beat out. I might have my barbecue and stuff. 584 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 3: And then of course the follow. 585 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 2: Remember that's after the what is it Brazil opener? We 586 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 2: don't know how teams are gonna respond to a week 587 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 2: like you've gone on travel. 588 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 3: The same way. The Eagles was fined last year after 589 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 3: after that Week one when they didn't look good early. 590 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 2: In the season. Remember remember they struggled early at first 591 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 2: four games. 592 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 3: It was like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa what they wont though? 593 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 2: Didn't they let me check if they won their Week 594 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 2: two game? Hold on, I believe that before they know 595 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 2: they lost Atlanta twenty two twenty one, okay, and then 596 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 2: they squeaked by the Saints and they got smashed by Tampa. 597 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 2: There was no Aj Brown in that one, so they 598 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 2: were sitting at two and two. 599 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 3: Okay, okay. Will to be fair, Atlanta New Orleans is 600 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 3: not Eagles giants that the Chiefs are gonna be so 601 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 3: I mean that's uh. I mean they lost for twenty 602 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:58,679 Speaker 3: two twenty one. I don't know how they lost their 603 00:27:58,720 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 3: game still, so. 604 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 2: That was the Kirk Cousins totally screwed up in the 605 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. They had two drives late to try to 606 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 2: pull it off and could do neither. If memory serves, 607 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 2: I could no. Wait, Kirk Cousins did get it done. 608 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 2: They want that's right. Yeah, yea Eagles lost that my bad. 609 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: So yeah, like again, I know it's read. 610 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 3: It's gonna be a tough It looks it's gonna be tough. 611 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 3: I think I think the Week two game again, Look, 612 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 3: and the Chiefs can lose that game. It just but 613 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 3: I peected they're not gonna lose thirty four to six 614 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 3: or whatever the score was in the super Bowl. That's 615 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 3: not happened. I just you know, I just think that 616 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 3: forty I just think that it's gonna be much It's 617 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 3: gonna be much close and much tighter. And look, the 618 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 3: Chiefs offense will not be what it is because obviously 619 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 3: she Rice is gonna be out of the game. And 620 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 3: I'm not just gonna put it just on him. You know, 621 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 3: I can tell you through our training camp. That's something 622 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 3: that the Chiefs. You know, obviously they're you know, they 623 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 3: always prepare for their first game, which is the Chargers. 624 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 3: But trust and believe they got some stuff in mind 625 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 3: and in store to day that they've prepared for do 626 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 3: our training camp for the Eagles game. 627 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 2: M hmm, well maybe they'll overlook the Chargers and lose 628 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 2: in Brazil. Uh, we'll definitely have you back and listen. 629 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 2: If the Chiefs are on the doorstep of missing the playoffs, 630 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 2: you know, your boy, it's gonna be thumbing his chest 631 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 2: doing a victory lab all right. Yeah, yeah, But then again, 632 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: the Chiefs will probably be in the Super Bowl again, 633 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 2: and I'll be a moron, all right, Dearren, good stuff, man, 634 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 2: and we'll. 635 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 3: Talk to you. Yeah, sounds good. Thanks,
