Let's take a look at this NFC playoff picture. 14 00:01:15,428 --> 00:01:18,508 Speaker 1: Eagles falling short, losing to the Commanders last night, but 15 00:01:18,548 --> 00:01:21,268 Speaker 1: they still sit a top of the NFC as the 16 00:01:21,468 --> 00:01:25,148 Speaker 1: number one seed, followed by the Vikings, Seahawks Tampa. And 17 00:01:25,188 --> 00:01:27,508 Speaker 1: then you see the wild Cards right there, the Giants, 18 00:01:27,508 --> 00:01:30,908 Speaker 1: Cowboys in forty nine ers in the hunt, the Commanders, 19 00:01:31,228 --> 00:01:33,988 Speaker 1: Green Bay getting a win two head over to the 20 00:01:34,068 --> 00:01:37,308 Speaker 1: NC Kansas City they lose. Tyreek Hill is still a 21 00:01:37,428 --> 00:01:41,388 Speaker 1: top of that playoff picture. Miami Dolphins making their search too, 22 00:01:41,468 --> 00:01:44,428 Speaker 1: US healthy, Tennessee Baltimore Jets. You see all of those 23 00:01:44,508 --> 00:01:47,228 Speaker 1: logos on the screen. A ton of teams in the 24 00:01:47,228 --> 00:01:51,628 Speaker 1: playoff picture in the AFC, but four AFC East teams 25 00:01:51,708 --> 00:01:54,748 Speaker 1: all in the playoffs right now. Who would have thought 26 00:01:54,828 --> 00:01:57,948 Speaker 1: that division is stacked? And you guys, you see it. 27 00:01:58,068 --> 00:02:00,108 Speaker 1: They're all going to be playing this week. So I'm 28 00:02:00,108 --> 00:02:02,588 Speaker 1: coming off a bye week. Out of these four AFC 29 00:02:02,788 --> 00:02:05,508 Speaker 1: teams in the playoff picture right now, who do you 30 00:02:05,548 --> 00:02:07,468 Speaker 1: guys say, hey, there's something I need to see from 31 00:02:07,508 --> 00:02:10,108 Speaker 1: this team, from this player, Peter, you start us off. 32 00:02:10,188 --> 00:02:12,948 Speaker 1: A FC East is incredible, And we said it before 33 00:02:12,988 --> 00:02:15,468 Speaker 1: the season. We're like, well, one of these divisions is 34 00:02:15,468 --> 00:02:17,308 Speaker 1: going to be the power division in the AFC. It's 35 00:02:17,308 --> 00:02:19,348 Speaker 1: gonna probably be the AFC West. But the AFC North 36 00:02:19,428 --> 00:02:21,588 Speaker 1: does have the Steelers, the Ravens, the Browns, and the Bengals. 37 00:02:21,828 --> 00:02:23,628 Speaker 1: The AFC East of the playoffs were today to you 38 00:02:23,708 --> 00:02:26,228 Speaker 1: to reiterate your point. All four teams are at so cool. 39 00:02:26,388 --> 00:02:29,228 Speaker 1: All four teams are in there are no other wild cards. Sorry, Bengals, 40 00:02:29,268 --> 00:02:32,828 Speaker 1: you're not in. Chargers, You're not in. And yet I'm 41 00:02:32,868 --> 00:02:36,388 Speaker 1: a little nervous about one team. And I'm just curious 42 00:02:36,388 --> 00:02:39,148 Speaker 1: to see how this thing plays out. Josh Allen's gonna 43 00:02:39,148 --> 00:02:43,228 Speaker 1: be okay. The Bills secondary has long been the pride 44 00:02:43,268 --> 00:02:45,388 Speaker 1: of that team. The Bills secondary has long been the 45 00:02:45,508 --> 00:02:48,508 Speaker 1: quiet Like that's the real difference maker. When you've got 46 00:02:48,508 --> 00:02:51,828 Speaker 1: Trey Davis White and Jordan Poyer and Micah High and 47 00:02:51,868 --> 00:02:55,108 Speaker 1: how you got a rookie Kyrilam. Guys they're starting corners 48 00:02:55,468 --> 00:02:58,348 Speaker 1: in week ten where Dane Jackson and Christian Benford they 49 00:02:58,388 --> 00:03:00,788 Speaker 1: gave up eight catches one hundred and eighty four yards 50 00:03:00,828 --> 00:03:03,908 Speaker 1: and a touchdown to Justin Jefferson. And we look at 51 00:03:03,948 --> 00:03:09,228 Speaker 1: these guys. Is Elim's out the rookie hideout? Poyer we 52 00:03:09,468 --> 00:03:12,788 Speaker 1: think is coming back. Bedford is playing, He's the rookie. 53 00:03:12,788 --> 00:03:15,028 Speaker 1: Had a Villanova, great story, sixth round pick. But like, 54 00:03:15,708 --> 00:03:17,348 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's the guy that's gonna be 55 00:03:17,348 --> 00:03:19,668 Speaker 1: stopping you know, Mahomes and Lamar and the rest, and 56 00:03:19,668 --> 00:03:22,748 Speaker 1: then Tredevious White still not on the field. Where my 57 00:03:22,868 --> 00:03:26,588 Speaker 1: thing I gotta see, Like can you stop these teams 58 00:03:26,628 --> 00:03:28,468 Speaker 1: in the moments that matter? And I know they've had 59 00:03:28,508 --> 00:03:30,708 Speaker 1: a good season, they've been fine, and look, Benford is 60 00:03:30,708 --> 00:03:33,188 Speaker 1: playing well beyond expectation, a six round pick out of Illanovo. 61 00:03:33,228 --> 00:03:37,388 Speaker 1: We we respect that. But the Bills defense since Week 62 00:03:37,468 --> 00:03:40,748 Speaker 1: six has given up two hundred and sixty passing yards 63 00:03:40,828 --> 00:03:43,788 Speaker 1: a game. That's twenty fifth in the NFL. And you're 64 00:03:43,788 --> 00:03:46,548 Speaker 1: looking at guys like Kelsey having a day, Waddle having 65 00:03:46,548 --> 00:03:53,988 Speaker 1: a day, Juju had a day, Justin Jefferson had the day. Look, Jason, 66 00:03:54,028 --> 00:03:55,988 Speaker 1: you're a defensive back. I know this seems like I'm 67 00:03:55,988 --> 00:03:57,908 Speaker 1: picking out a team that's injured and like, hey, they're 68 00:03:57,948 --> 00:04:01,228 Speaker 1: all coming back, but like it's a complete deal. Everyone's 69 00:04:01,228 --> 00:04:04,308 Speaker 1: gonna focus on Josh Allen and the interceptions when you're 70 00:04:04,428 --> 00:04:07,268 Speaker 1: defensive backfield, is that all injury riddle? Like that to 71 00:04:07,388 --> 00:04:10,268 Speaker 1: me is something Let's go attack, attack, attack. These young 72 00:04:10,308 --> 00:04:12,268 Speaker 1: guys have to step up, yeah, for sure, and they 73 00:04:12,308 --> 00:04:14,188 Speaker 1: have stepped up. And I think the biggest thing you 74 00:04:14,228 --> 00:04:16,908 Speaker 1: shold Micah Hides a guy who's not coming back when 75 00:04:16,908 --> 00:04:19,348 Speaker 1: he also said Jodan Porter, those are the quarterbacks of 76 00:04:19,428 --> 00:04:21,748 Speaker 1: the defense. So when you lose those two guys, and 77 00:04:21,788 --> 00:04:24,348 Speaker 1: then you mix in having a young secondary around them. 78 00:04:24,588 --> 00:04:26,548 Speaker 1: That's what makes it tough to go out there and 79 00:04:26,628 --> 00:04:29,068 Speaker 1: play and make those huge plays at the end of 80 00:04:29,108 --> 00:04:31,628 Speaker 1: the game, which we saw Justin Jefferson. Then you couple 81 00:04:31,708 --> 00:04:34,148 Speaker 1: that with you're going against a really good receiver. Justin 82 00:04:34,268 --> 00:04:36,988 Speaker 1: Jefferson made plays. Guys are in position, but he went 83 00:04:37,028 --> 00:04:38,948 Speaker 1: up and made the play. Okay. I was watching Sean 84 00:04:39,028 --> 00:04:40,868 Speaker 1: mcderrn's media session. Yes, so he was asked about Trey 85 00:04:40,908 --> 00:04:42,588 Speaker 1: White and he was asked an interesting question. You said, 86 00:04:42,868 --> 00:04:44,308 Speaker 1: how much of it him not being on the field 87 00:04:44,308 --> 00:04:46,908 Speaker 1: at this point is physical and how much is emotional? 88 00:04:47,268 --> 00:04:49,108 Speaker 1: And I thought that was and he said, in so 89 00:04:49,188 --> 00:04:51,828 Speaker 1: many words, he's just not ready yet. So I don't 90 00:04:51,868 --> 00:04:54,628 Speaker 1: even know what that means necessarily, but like they need him. 91 00:04:54,668 --> 00:04:57,068 Speaker 1: He's a star player. They lost two in rows something 92 00:04:57,068 --> 00:04:58,548 Speaker 1: to go. We've seen that with a bunch of guys 93 00:04:58,548 --> 00:05:01,588 Speaker 1: coming back from acl sometimes more than just the physicals. 94 00:05:01,628 --> 00:05:03,788 Speaker 1: Ye see about tradevious White to be a huge part 95 00:05:04,388 --> 00:05:07,428 Speaker 1: for that secondary. Peter, take me to the Jets and 96 00:05:07,708 --> 00:05:09,988 Speaker 1: I do remember being here. I believe it was in July. 97 00:05:10,108 --> 00:05:12,468 Speaker 1: You guys were on vacation. It was a mishmash of 98 00:05:12,508 --> 00:05:14,388 Speaker 1: Mike rob and Will Selba was here. I think James 99 00:05:14,428 --> 00:05:16,228 Speaker 1: Palmer and we did a whole thing about what do 100 00:05:16,268 --> 00:05:17,868 Speaker 1: the Jets have to do to make the playoffs? And 101 00:05:17,868 --> 00:05:20,148 Speaker 1: I said, forget the playoffs. It's not about the playoffs 102 00:05:20,308 --> 00:05:22,948 Speaker 1: for the Jets. The Jets are not making the playoffs 103 00:05:22,988 --> 00:05:25,868 Speaker 1: this season. I might wind up being wrong on that, 104 00:05:25,948 --> 00:05:28,268 Speaker 1: stay tuned, but my point that day was I don't 105 00:05:28,308 --> 00:05:30,668 Speaker 1: care about that part of it. I care about Zach Wilson. 106 00:05:30,908 --> 00:05:32,868 Speaker 1: That's the biggest part of this. I need to see 107 00:05:33,108 --> 00:05:35,868 Speaker 1: progression from Zach Wilson. I need to see a guy 108 00:05:36,268 --> 00:05:40,188 Speaker 1: that was worthy of the number two overall pick. I 109 00:05:40,228 --> 00:05:43,028 Speaker 1: haven't seen it yet, and I'm seeing everything else, and 110 00:05:43,068 --> 00:05:45,228 Speaker 1: I'm seeing a lot of other young guys stepping up 111 00:05:45,268 --> 00:05:47,188 Speaker 1: for this team and performing for this team. But what 112 00:05:47,228 --> 00:05:50,428 Speaker 1: I'm seeing from Zach Wilsons four touchdowns to five interceptions 113 00:05:50,428 --> 00:05:54,468 Speaker 1: and fifty seven point five percent completion percentage. You know 114 00:05:54,548 --> 00:05:56,788 Speaker 1: those workouts that he had before the draft. He was 115 00:05:56,868 --> 00:05:59,508 Speaker 1: wowing people with his ability to throw on the run 116 00:05:59,548 --> 00:06:02,388 Speaker 1: and how smooth it was and how strong that arm was. 117 00:06:02,428 --> 00:06:04,268 Speaker 1: You seeing it right there. I need more of that. 118 00:06:04,708 --> 00:06:07,868 Speaker 1: I need the c a guy that's gonna be a 119 00:06:07,868 --> 00:06:10,748 Speaker 1: player that's gonna take this offense and the guys around 120 00:06:10,828 --> 00:06:13,268 Speaker 1: him to new heights. I'm just not seeing it right now, 121 00:06:13,268 --> 00:06:15,548 Speaker 1: and I'm a little worried because I don't want to 122 00:06:15,588 --> 00:06:19,028 Speaker 1: get alarmist about it. But I think most recently about 123 00:06:19,068 --> 00:06:21,908 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears, think about how good that roster was 124 00:06:21,948 --> 00:06:25,268 Speaker 1: at one point, built all the way around Mitchell Trubisky, 125 00:06:25,268 --> 00:06:27,668 Speaker 1: and they just, for various reasons, couldn't get the quarterback 126 00:06:27,668 --> 00:06:29,428 Speaker 1: because he doesn't have it. And it's like, you could 127 00:06:29,468 --> 00:06:32,108 Speaker 1: get fifty two spots on the roster, right, and if 128 00:06:32,108 --> 00:06:34,788 Speaker 1: you don't get the one that's most important, right, it 129 00:06:34,908 --> 00:06:36,948 Speaker 1: kind of drags everything else down. So let's see Zach 130 00:06:36,988 --> 00:06:38,948 Speaker 1: Wilson show what could he do to prove us well? 131 00:06:38,988 --> 00:06:40,508 Speaker 1: Because I think we're all in the same boat. Like 132 00:06:40,948 --> 00:06:42,788 Speaker 1: I say, he needs to win a game with his arm. 133 00:06:42,828 --> 00:06:44,988 Speaker 1: He needs to be They don't really give the opportunity 134 00:06:45,028 --> 00:06:46,908 Speaker 1: to do that. They're not looking for him to throw 135 00:06:46,908 --> 00:06:48,548 Speaker 1: the ball for three hundred yards. What could he do 136 00:06:48,548 --> 00:06:50,388 Speaker 1: does not turn the ball over? I think it's the 137 00:06:50,388 --> 00:06:52,428 Speaker 1: off schedule stuff, because that's what you're seeing from a 138 00:06:52,468 --> 00:06:54,308 Speaker 1: lot of these guys. It's like the play breaks down, 139 00:06:54,588 --> 00:06:56,948 Speaker 1: and you're still worried about what's Patrick Mahome's going to do, 140 00:06:57,028 --> 00:06:59,708 Speaker 1: what's Josh Allen going to do? Defenses need to be 141 00:06:59,788 --> 00:07:02,428 Speaker 1: worried about what is Zach Wilson going to do? When 142 00:07:02,468 --> 00:07:04,908 Speaker 1: it's one two, Oh boy, he's on the move. Look out, 143 00:07:05,068 --> 00:07:07,588 Speaker 1: this play's not over yet. Well, the other look, the 144 00:07:07,668 --> 00:07:10,028 Speaker 1: other barrass comparison is what Justin Fields is doing right 145 00:07:10,028 --> 00:07:12,028 Speaker 1: now in his draft class. And like just Fields doesn't 146 00:07:12,028 --> 00:07:13,188 Speaker 1: have a lot to work with and he looks like 147 00:07:13,628 --> 00:07:16,588 Speaker 1: young Cam Newton out there is incredible. To answer your question, Peter, 148 00:07:16,828 --> 00:07:19,108 Speaker 1: how about just beat the Patriots? Can we do that 149 00:07:19,228 --> 00:07:22,068 Speaker 1: team straight? Jess? Patriots speak? That's it, And it brings 150 00:07:22,068 --> 00:07:23,548 Speaker 1: me to my point, I don't know what we're getting 151 00:07:23,548 --> 00:07:26,028 Speaker 1: from the Patriots. I remember vividly last year we're seeing 152 00:07:26,028 --> 00:07:28,108 Speaker 1: her right around the same time of year, and the 153 00:07:28,148 --> 00:07:30,348 Speaker 1: Patriots had just gone away for a while. And then 154 00:07:30,588 --> 00:07:32,788 Speaker 1: Peter did a segment where he goes, hey, guys, knock, knock, 155 00:07:32,868 --> 00:07:34,868 Speaker 1: the Patriots are coming. They can't lose. They're on this 156 00:07:34,988 --> 00:07:37,428 Speaker 1: crazy wind streak. This Patriot seems started one and three 157 00:07:37,588 --> 00:07:39,268 Speaker 1: and it was all we were talking about was Bailey's 158 00:07:39,268 --> 00:07:43,188 Speaker 1: Appy and Max washed up, But five and four, one, 159 00:07:43,308 --> 00:07:45,228 Speaker 1: four to five, they're coming in the by and now 160 00:07:45,268 --> 00:07:47,588 Speaker 1: they play a team that like that they own, that 161 00:07:47,748 --> 00:07:50,588 Speaker 1: Belichick hates, and Jason's told us everybody hates the Jets 162 00:07:50,588 --> 00:07:52,668 Speaker 1: with the Patriot like, it's a big week. So I 163 00:07:52,708 --> 00:07:54,268 Speaker 1: kind of want to see from Mac what a little 164 00:07:54,268 --> 00:07:55,748 Speaker 1: bit what we're talking about it, Wilson in this own 165 00:07:55,788 --> 00:07:58,788 Speaker 1: way about like, all right, we're rested, we're ready, we're 166 00:07:58,828 --> 00:08:01,148 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, let's go on a little run. Let's 167 00:08:01,268 --> 00:08:04,668 Speaker 1: let's shock the world and finish this season eleven and six. 168 00:08:04,748 --> 00:08:07,348 Speaker 1: Why the hell not. We're gonna steamroll right over the Jets. 169 00:08:07,348 --> 00:08:10,108 Speaker 1: And then it's like Vikings and Bills, like this is 170 00:08:10,188 --> 00:08:12,708 Speaker 1: big time Patriots games coming down the stretch. They went away, 171 00:08:12,788 --> 00:08:14,628 Speaker 1: they did their rest. That's fine. They're not in the 172 00:08:14,628 --> 00:08:16,668 Speaker 1: conversation at all. Guys, We're gonna talk a lot of 173 00:08:16,668 --> 00:08:19,388 Speaker 1: Patriots the next three weeks, a lot because the Jets 174 00:08:19,388 --> 00:08:21,028 Speaker 1: thing again, and then they play two of the marquee 175 00:08:21,068 --> 00:08:22,668 Speaker 1: teams in the league. Are they're gonna go three and 176 00:08:22,708 --> 00:08:24,268 Speaker 1: all on that at two and one and three, I 177 00:08:24,308 --> 00:08:26,828 Speaker 1: have no idea how good this Patriots team is. And Jason, 178 00:08:26,948 --> 00:08:29,268 Speaker 1: you're the guy who's living, breathing. Patriots at the table. 179 00:08:29,788 --> 00:08:31,908 Speaker 1: You didn't think they're gonna make the playoffs, begin to say, 180 00:08:31,948 --> 00:08:33,868 Speaker 1: you didn't even really think about it. You just felt 181 00:08:33,908 --> 00:08:36,188 Speaker 1: this way about them, and yet here they are. I'm 182 00:08:36,228 --> 00:08:38,308 Speaker 1: paced to make the playoffs with a lot to proof. Yeah, 183 00:08:38,308 --> 00:08:40,588 Speaker 1: they're always in a conversation. And the one thing being 184 00:08:40,628 --> 00:08:43,188 Speaker 1: in that building for three years we always talked about 185 00:08:43,428 --> 00:08:47,188 Speaker 1: was around things given is when football starts, like, yes, September, 186 00:08:47,228 --> 00:08:49,788 Speaker 1: you have October, but it's around this time that you 187 00:08:49,788 --> 00:08:51,908 Speaker 1: want to be playing your best football. And to what 188 00:08:52,068 --> 00:08:54,388 Speaker 1: you just said, go on and run. It's right there 189 00:08:54,428 --> 00:08:56,268 Speaker 1: for you. You can go and run. And there's a 190 00:08:56,308 --> 00:08:58,548 Speaker 1: guy that can stop that run. And Bill always talks 191 00:08:58,588 --> 00:09:00,828 Speaker 1: about how hard he is to defend. And I'm gonna 192 00:09:00,868 --> 00:09:02,908 Speaker 1: go back to Josh Allen. I'm not gonna say what 193 00:09:02,948 --> 00:09:05,708 Speaker 1: everybody's saying. Oh diddy, Grass, he needs to stop turning 194 00:09:05,708 --> 00:09:08,228 Speaker 1: the ball over, go have fun like This is a 195 00:09:08,268 --> 00:09:10,588 Speaker 1: guy that we fall in love with watching him play 196 00:09:10,668 --> 00:09:12,828 Speaker 1: because of the joy in which he does it, running 197 00:09:12,868 --> 00:09:16,868 Speaker 1: people over, celebrating with his teammates, doing handshakes before the game. 198 00:09:17,108 --> 00:09:20,028 Speaker 1: There's something about the wild way that he plays quarterback 199 00:09:20,268 --> 00:09:23,828 Speaker 1: that is just fascinating for everybody to tune in and watch. 200 00:09:24,028 --> 00:09:27,588 Speaker 1: So for me, like, yeah, everybody's a quarterback whisperer now 201 00:09:27,628 --> 00:09:30,268 Speaker 1: because he's thrown the interception and just like, oh, this 202 00:09:30,308 --> 00:09:32,708 Speaker 1: is the old Josh Allen. He's this guy. He's can't 203 00:09:32,788 --> 00:09:35,228 Speaker 1: lead them. He keeps making the crucial mistakes. Like no, 204 00:09:35,388 --> 00:09:38,188 Speaker 1: he's a very good football player that leads them. That 205 00:09:38,468 --> 00:09:40,628 Speaker 1: is the reason we all picked him to win the 206 00:09:40,628 --> 00:09:43,348 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. We picked him to be the MVP. Get 207 00:09:43,348 --> 00:09:46,668 Speaker 1: back to that talk trash, have fun, run the football, 208 00:09:46,908 --> 00:09:48,908 Speaker 1: and that's the Josh Allen that we all want to 209 00:09:48,908 --> 00:09:51,708 Speaker 1: see weekend and week out. Yes, you've made some mistakes. 210 00:09:51,788 --> 00:09:53,868 Speaker 1: I don't want to see the dejected Josh Allen and 211 00:09:53,948 --> 00:09:56,908 Speaker 1: the pressor after the game saying I gotta be better. Yeah, 212 00:09:56,988 --> 00:09:59,028 Speaker 1: so what we all have make mistakes, We all have 213 00:09:59,188 --> 00:10:02,068 Speaker 1: bad games. Will dare have a game, have a blast 214 00:10:02,068 --> 00:10:04,908 Speaker 1: doing it, laughing, enjoy being around the guys. It's tough. 215 00:10:04,988 --> 00:10:06,828 Speaker 1: He takes a lot of ownership of the losses and 216 00:10:06,828 --> 00:10:08,828 Speaker 1: they really weighs on him and he gets really pissed 217 00:10:08,828 --> 00:10:11,188 Speaker 1: and he's really competitive. But you're right, like right in 218 00:10:11,188 --> 00:10:12,588 Speaker 1: the mole of the season, they ask you, you're doing 219 00:10:12,628 --> 00:10:14,668 Speaker 1: these interviews with him once a week, so that if 220 00:10:14,668 --> 00:10:17,948 Speaker 1: you sent a different tone, or is he still this 221 00:10:18,028 --> 00:10:21,188 Speaker 1: like twenty six year old super interested in other things 222 00:10:21,228 --> 00:10:23,868 Speaker 1: off the filoor. Is there attention now because things are 223 00:10:23,868 --> 00:10:26,908 Speaker 1: not going perfectly? Shows up today? Talked to him this afternoon. 224 00:10:27,108 --> 00:10:29,308 Speaker 1: They've lost two in a row. There've been some bad plays, 225 00:10:29,548 --> 00:10:31,548 Speaker 1: and I'm sitting here editorially like wondering how I'm going 226 00:10:31,588 --> 00:10:33,348 Speaker 1: to talk to him because I don't want to patronize them. Oh, 227 00:10:33,428 --> 00:10:35,108 Speaker 1: let's talk about movies and stuff like. There's some serious 228 00:10:35,108 --> 00:10:37,228 Speaker 1: stuff going on. So I'm planning it right now and 229 00:10:37,228 --> 00:10:44,988 Speaker 1: we'll talk about tomorrow. Moo. Meanwhile, the Raiders seeing another 230 00:10:45,188 --> 00:10:49,108 Speaker 1: game slip away from their grasp as they have fallen 231 00:10:49,468 --> 00:10:52,548 Speaker 1: down with their record. They are now two in three 232 00:10:52,748 --> 00:10:56,188 Speaker 1: in games where they were leading in the fourth quarter, 233 00:10:56,268 --> 00:11:00,788 Speaker 1: and after the game, quarterback Derek Carr was visibly upset. 234 00:11:03,508 --> 00:11:09,228 Speaker 1: Sorry for being a mow, I'm just pissed off at 235 00:11:09,308 --> 00:11:13,428 Speaker 1: some of the things. You know that a lot of 236 00:11:13,468 --> 00:11:17,148 Speaker 1: us try and do just to practice what we put 237 00:11:17,148 --> 00:11:30,828 Speaker 1: our bodies through just asleep at night, and for that 238 00:11:30,948 --> 00:11:35,828 Speaker 1: to be the result of all that effort, This is 239 00:11:35,868 --> 00:11:41,588 Speaker 1: me off. All right, that's a lot, let's get into it. 240 00:11:41,708 --> 00:11:43,388 Speaker 1: It's been a rough season for Derek car the Raider 241 00:11:43,468 --> 00:11:45,188 Speaker 1: so far. He's had several of them here, this one 242 00:11:45,268 --> 00:11:48,308 Speaker 1: really stings. Lots of offseason hype the two and seven. 243 00:11:48,548 --> 00:11:50,508 Speaker 1: We're talking about them on the show right now for 244 00:11:50,548 --> 00:11:52,508 Speaker 1: a reason. Head into week eleven, two and seven, there's 245 00:11:52,508 --> 00:11:55,108 Speaker 1: been a lot of blame that goes towards Josh McDaniels. 246 00:11:55,108 --> 00:11:58,068 Speaker 1: This team was in the playoffs last year. Raiders owner 247 00:11:58,108 --> 00:12:00,468 Speaker 1: Mark Davis, though, does not share many of those opinions. 248 00:12:00,468 --> 00:12:02,748 Speaker 1: On Monday, the owner told the Las Vegas Review Journal, 249 00:12:02,988 --> 00:12:06,668 Speaker 1: I like Josh doing a fantastic job. That's why I 250 00:12:06,748 --> 00:12:10,508 Speaker 1: hired him. We did an exhaustive search and found the 251 00:12:10,548 --> 00:12:14,708 Speaker 1: person we believe is going to bring the Raiders to greatness. 252 00:12:15,668 --> 00:12:18,028 Speaker 1: So here we are ten weeks and I think they're 253 00:12:18,068 --> 00:12:21,188 Speaker 1: unequivocally the most disappointing team in the entire league out 254 00:12:21,228 --> 00:12:23,668 Speaker 1: of thirty two. So we ask what's going on with 255 00:12:23,708 --> 00:12:25,828 Speaker 1: the Raiders and what are our thoughts about what mister 256 00:12:25,908 --> 00:12:27,828 Speaker 1: Davis had to say. Mike Carefolo, we talked in the 257 00:12:27,828 --> 00:12:30,468 Speaker 1: show yesterday where I said I would be surprised if 258 00:12:30,708 --> 00:12:34,748 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels got bounced after one season. So that's one 259 00:12:34,868 --> 00:12:36,028 Speaker 1: end of it, and then the other end of it 260 00:12:36,108 --> 00:12:38,028 Speaker 1: is what you're just reading right there. I don't think 261 00:12:38,028 --> 00:12:39,868 Speaker 1: we're there. I don't think we're here. I don't think 262 00:12:39,868 --> 00:12:41,988 Speaker 1: we're there. We're somewhere in between. And you got to 263 00:12:42,068 --> 00:12:44,308 Speaker 1: kind of grade a little bit on a curve here 264 00:12:44,348 --> 00:12:46,628 Speaker 1: because this is a team that just has not drafted 265 00:12:46,628 --> 00:12:49,188 Speaker 1: well in recent years, and you got a previous regime 266 00:12:49,228 --> 00:12:51,548 Speaker 1: and they let themselves go of Jonathan Abram, who was 267 00:12:51,588 --> 00:12:53,308 Speaker 1: one of those key picks. I mean, I can mention 268 00:12:53,348 --> 00:12:57,908 Speaker 1: Alex Leatherwood, Henry Ruggs, Damon Arnett, Cleveland Farrell, who was 269 00:12:57,948 --> 00:13:01,748 Speaker 1: inactive the other day for a disciplinary reason. I believe 270 00:13:02,868 --> 00:13:04,948 Speaker 1: it's kind of hard to win when these are your 271 00:13:04,948 --> 00:13:07,028 Speaker 1: top draft picks, and I could go on and on. 272 00:13:07,068 --> 00:13:09,988 Speaker 1: There are more of them that haven't contributed, so that's 273 00:13:10,028 --> 00:13:11,828 Speaker 1: a problem. So you're just gonna have to sit here 274 00:13:11,828 --> 00:13:16,268 Speaker 1: and give this regime sometimes sometime to reset, get their 275 00:13:16,268 --> 00:13:18,148 Speaker 1: own guys in there and show they can win games. 276 00:13:18,388 --> 00:13:20,348 Speaker 1: I would say this, it's not like it was the 277 00:13:20,388 --> 00:13:23,108 Speaker 1: first time Josh McDaniels was a head coach with the 278 00:13:23,148 --> 00:13:26,108 Speaker 1: Denver Broncos where it was an unmitigated disaster and guys 279 00:13:26,108 --> 00:13:28,468 Speaker 1: couldn't stand him and he just had no ability to 280 00:13:28,468 --> 00:13:30,628 Speaker 1: communicate with guys. Maybe he was trying to be Belichick, 281 00:13:30,708 --> 00:13:33,548 Speaker 1: whatever it was. At least it's not that vibe this 282 00:13:33,628 --> 00:13:35,948 Speaker 1: time around. So you're just gonna have to suck it 283 00:13:36,028 --> 00:13:37,948 Speaker 1: up in the meantime, Raiders fans, and maybe we got 284 00:13:37,988 --> 00:13:40,908 Speaker 1: a little bit too far out over our skis thinking 285 00:13:40,908 --> 00:13:43,588 Speaker 1: that this team was ready to compete in a tough division. Yeah, 286 00:13:43,588 --> 00:13:46,228 Speaker 1: I think that last part from the tamper and expectations. 287 00:13:46,268 --> 00:13:49,708 Speaker 1: I think sometimes Josh McDaniel takes over a good football 288 00:13:49,748 --> 00:13:52,028 Speaker 1: team who made the playoffs last year and he's an 289 00:13:52,028 --> 00:13:54,788 Speaker 1: offensive gurule as they say. And I'm a big believer 290 00:13:54,868 --> 00:13:56,628 Speaker 1: in Josh. I got a chance to be in the 291 00:13:56,668 --> 00:13:58,468 Speaker 1: same locker room win him for a few seasons in 292 00:13:58,508 --> 00:14:00,628 Speaker 1: New England. But when you take over a team and 293 00:14:00,668 --> 00:14:03,188 Speaker 1: you insert a new general manager, a new head coach, 294 00:14:03,228 --> 00:14:06,828 Speaker 1: a brand new coach staff with their own system, you 295 00:14:06,828 --> 00:14:09,468 Speaker 1: don't just roll the ball out there, go play football 296 00:14:09,668 --> 00:14:12,108 Speaker 1: and the team just takes off. You see that happen sometimes. 297 00:14:12,148 --> 00:14:15,068 Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connell is doing a great job in Minnesota, Dable's 298 00:14:15,108 --> 00:14:16,988 Speaker 1: doing a really good job with the New York Giants, 299 00:14:17,108 --> 00:14:19,068 Speaker 1: but that's not taking place right now for the Laws 300 00:14:19,148 --> 00:14:21,588 Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders. But it's not like, all right, Josh McDaniels 301 00:14:21,668 --> 00:14:23,508 Speaker 1: is a terrible coach. He's here, they're not winning. Get 302 00:14:23,588 --> 00:14:25,988 Speaker 1: rid of them. No, Sometimes it takes time you install 303 00:14:26,068 --> 00:14:28,748 Speaker 1: your system. Guys need to buy in. Everybody needs to 304 00:14:28,828 --> 00:14:31,148 Speaker 1: learn that system, learn how to execute the system under 305 00:14:31,188 --> 00:14:33,308 Speaker 1: pressure as well. So I think it's gonna take a 306 00:14:33,348 --> 00:14:35,828 Speaker 1: little bit time. I'm right with you, Mike g Give 307 00:14:35,868 --> 00:14:39,508 Speaker 1: them time to get everything rolling. And it's not a rebuild, 308 00:14:39,548 --> 00:14:41,548 Speaker 1: you're just continue to build on a team that you're 309 00:14:41,908 --> 00:14:45,668 Speaker 1: the worst team in the NFL. The rest okay and 310 00:14:46,388 --> 00:14:50,428 Speaker 1: crossed me. If Derek Carr you're talking about Matt Lafleur 311 00:14:50,508 --> 00:14:52,508 Speaker 1: rolls out of bed, whin it's thirteen games with the Packers, 312 00:14:52,508 --> 00:14:55,348 Speaker 1: you're talking about Sean McVay rolls out of bed. What 313 00:14:55,428 --> 00:14:58,788 Speaker 1: do you mean? Give it some time? You don't hire 314 00:14:58,828 --> 00:15:01,428 Speaker 1: a guy, and all right, we've learned two out of 315 00:15:01,428 --> 00:15:03,348 Speaker 1: our first nine games. So it's just like, all right, 316 00:15:03,348 --> 00:15:05,508 Speaker 1: it didn't work. The ram suck right now, they're not 317 00:15:05,548 --> 00:15:08,148 Speaker 1: playing well. They still have a really good football coach, 318 00:15:08,188 --> 00:15:10,268 Speaker 1: and I know he's had to pass success. So I'm 319 00:15:10,268 --> 00:15:13,308 Speaker 1: not comparing McDaniels to McVeigh. I'm just saying, just because 320 00:15:13,348 --> 00:15:15,628 Speaker 1: the team is struggling doesn't mean oh, I throw it 321 00:15:15,668 --> 00:15:19,108 Speaker 1: all out, start all over. Because you fire Josh mcdonnel's, 322 00:15:19,108 --> 00:15:20,668 Speaker 1: you start over, you bring a new coach. I was 323 00:15:20,708 --> 00:15:22,748 Speaker 1: a part of this for many years. I played eight 324 00:15:22,828 --> 00:15:26,588 Speaker 1: years in Tennessee, four different head coaches, three different general managers. 325 00:15:26,668 --> 00:15:28,668 Speaker 1: We never went to the playoffs, not one time, and 326 00:15:28,668 --> 00:15:30,868 Speaker 1: it wasn't until after that Milwaukee went to next year 327 00:15:30,868 --> 00:15:33,268 Speaker 1: and then obviously variable with the success they've had, but 328 00:15:33,508 --> 00:15:35,468 Speaker 1: every year if you just keep hitting the reset button, 329 00:15:35,508 --> 00:15:38,828 Speaker 1: keep hitting the reset but it doesn't guarantee success. I 330 00:15:38,948 --> 00:15:41,108 Speaker 1: was just asking you because I look at that roster 331 00:15:41,188 --> 00:15:42,988 Speaker 1: and Mike. As much as they've hit, they've missed on 332 00:15:43,228 --> 00:15:45,268 Speaker 1: draft picks, they do have talent all over it. And 333 00:15:46,068 --> 00:15:48,468 Speaker 1: you know Davante Adams. You think about Davante what he's 334 00:15:48,508 --> 00:15:50,148 Speaker 1: got going on, and then you think of what Tyreek 335 00:15:50,228 --> 00:15:52,148 Speaker 1: Hill got when he went to Miami. It's like the 336 00:15:52,508 --> 00:15:54,588 Speaker 1: complete different end of the spectrum of when you leave 337 00:15:54,628 --> 00:15:59,428 Speaker 1: these teams for new ventures. One and done though, is rarere. 338 00:15:59,588 --> 00:16:03,228 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's Jim Tumsula, that's Steve Wilkson Arizona, 339 00:16:03,508 --> 00:16:06,868 Speaker 1: that's Freddy Chins, that's Cam Cameron that one year in Miami, 340 00:16:07,468 --> 00:16:09,308 Speaker 1: And I don't think Mark Davis is going to go 341 00:16:09,348 --> 00:16:11,828 Speaker 1: one and done. Mark Davis still has a settlement with 342 00:16:11,908 --> 00:16:15,708 Speaker 1: John Gruden. Mark Davis is a different financial situation than 343 00:16:15,748 --> 00:16:18,388 Speaker 1: some of these other owners, Like I don't see Mark 344 00:16:18,428 --> 00:16:22,788 Speaker 1: Mark Davis paying John Gruden and paying Josh McDaniels out 345 00:16:22,828 --> 00:16:26,708 Speaker 1: another four years of his contract, so brass tacks and 346 00:16:26,748 --> 00:16:29,988 Speaker 1: this thing. He's not going anywhere. They're not firing him 347 00:16:29,988 --> 00:16:31,628 Speaker 1: and is eating the I don't think Mark Davis has 348 00:16:31,628 --> 00:16:33,948 Speaker 1: the liquid to just fire him and eat all these 349 00:16:33,948 --> 00:16:36,748 Speaker 1: costs and say let's keep on rolling. Sometimes it just 350 00:16:36,748 --> 00:16:38,948 Speaker 1: comes to the finances of it. And James, I think 351 00:16:38,948 --> 00:16:40,908 Speaker 1: you're being very kind to Josh McDaniels. I think has 352 00:16:40,908 --> 00:16:43,108 Speaker 1: been an unmitigated disaster on the field. They lose every 353 00:16:43,108 --> 00:16:45,228 Speaker 1: one score game. And yet I'm with you in a 354 00:16:45,268 --> 00:16:47,308 Speaker 1: way that like, there's too much talent the rather and 355 00:16:47,308 --> 00:16:49,308 Speaker 1: he's seemed too much football for this to be just 356 00:16:49,308 --> 00:16:51,628 Speaker 1: just a complete failure in the end. Yeah, I'm not 357 00:16:51,748 --> 00:16:53,868 Speaker 1: interested in McDaniels being like, Oh, I'm just interested in 358 00:16:53,908 --> 00:16:56,108 Speaker 1: why the hell are they so bad? What is this? 359 00:16:56,228 --> 00:16:58,748 Speaker 1: Because you know it's a blessing and a curse. You 360 00:16:58,828 --> 00:17:01,268 Speaker 1: inherit a playoff team and they won double digits and 361 00:17:01,348 --> 00:17:03,588 Speaker 1: they were one throw from beating the Bengals. That's great. 362 00:17:03,948 --> 00:17:06,548 Speaker 1: The cur is you better be great the next year. 363 00:17:06,588 --> 00:17:09,308 Speaker 1: You're not getting a two win team like we expect to. 364 00:17:09,588 --> 00:17:11,428 Speaker 1: This was the team that was going to take out 365 00:17:11,508 --> 00:17:14,748 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. We spent the money, we brought in the players. 366 00:17:15,068 --> 00:17:18,308 Speaker 1: So I think the statement from Mark Davis is frustrating, 367 00:17:18,348 --> 00:17:20,748 Speaker 1: and I think it's nonsense in a lot of ways too. 368 00:17:20,748 --> 00:17:23,428 Speaker 1: He literally says I think he's doing a fantastic job. 369 00:17:23,468 --> 00:17:26,228 Speaker 1: No he's not. They lose every single one score game 370 00:17:26,268 --> 00:17:28,388 Speaker 1: they play in and a lot of one square games. 371 00:17:28,388 --> 00:17:31,828 Speaker 1: The coaching is the difference. Mark Davis also said everyone 372 00:17:31,868 --> 00:17:35,108 Speaker 1: wants instant gratification. It's not true, and that as a 373 00:17:35,108 --> 00:17:37,068 Speaker 1: cop out, that's not what this is. We want to 374 00:17:37,108 --> 00:17:39,428 Speaker 1: be able to score one point against the Saints. I 375 00:17:39,468 --> 00:17:43,028 Speaker 1: don't need a Super Bowl. Saturday's a bad looks terrible. Look. 376 00:17:43,388 --> 00:17:46,108 Speaker 1: Who's he gonna lose to next week? Kornheiser come on, 377 00:17:46,348 --> 00:17:48,588 Speaker 1: what are we doing here? You lost to a guy 378 00:17:48,628 --> 00:17:51,788 Speaker 1: in his first game ever. So listen, I don't need 379 00:17:51,828 --> 00:17:54,268 Speaker 1: an undefeated season in a parade through Las Vegas, but 380 00:17:54,828 --> 00:17:57,148 Speaker 1: I would like some gratification. I would like to not 381 00:17:57,148 --> 00:17:59,668 Speaker 1: get shut up by the Saints. So I'll say it again, 382 00:17:59,708 --> 00:18:02,428 Speaker 1: it's so negative. It's the most disappointing team in the 383 00:18:02,548 --> 00:18:04,908 Speaker 1: NFL by far. They've beaten the Broncos, who are in 384 00:18:04,908 --> 00:18:06,548 Speaker 1: the contention, and they've beat in the Texans, who are 385 00:18:06,628 --> 00:18:08,748 Speaker 1: kind of a real team. Guys coming up, where do 386 00:18:08,828 --> 00:18:11,068 Speaker 1: the Bills? Though they had their own issues, they what 387 00:18:11,108 --> 00:18:13,268 Speaker 1: do they stand in? The power? Very positive? We talk 388 00:18:13,308 --> 00:18:15,268 Speaker 1: about like there you go, there's positive. Here we go. 389 00:18:15,788 --> 00:18:18,028 Speaker 1: That's right. There are the Vikings the top team in 390 00:18:18,028 --> 00:18:20,028 Speaker 1: the league. The Eagles lost in the Bills lost. Are 391 00:18:20,068 --> 00:18:23,668 Speaker 1: the Vikings the number one team league Dan Hanss Power Rankings. Next, 392 00:18:31,588 --> 00:18:34,028 Speaker 1: it's time timon facts. Check out the power rankings by 393 00:18:34,108 --> 00:18:35,788 Speaker 1: Dan hans Us ahead of Week eleven. We always do 394 00:18:35,868 --> 00:18:37,828 Speaker 1: disaccording to a theme. With the big win last night, 395 00:18:38,028 --> 00:18:41,468 Speaker 1: let's do this with a theme according to notable commanders. 396 00:18:41,548 --> 00:18:43,788 Speaker 1: We start in the Star Wars world with the Commander 397 00:18:43,908 --> 00:18:46,468 Speaker 1: Cody Division. You know, Commander Cody of course, the clone 398 00:18:46,468 --> 00:18:48,628 Speaker 1: Marshal Commander in the Grammar Army of the Republic. And 399 00:18:48,668 --> 00:18:50,748 Speaker 1: we have the Houston Texans down at thirty two on 400 00:18:50,788 --> 00:18:54,868 Speaker 1: the bottom right, Panthers Broncos, oh my gosh. And then 401 00:18:54,908 --> 00:18:57,428 Speaker 1: the Raiders. We talked about last segment, a very negative segment, 402 00:18:57,468 --> 00:19:00,188 Speaker 1: but what other choice did we have. That's the lowest division. 403 00:19:00,188 --> 00:19:04,628 Speaker 1: Next the Master and Commander Division, sort of artsyat Pirate movie, 404 00:19:04,708 --> 00:19:07,348 Speaker 1: Paul Bettany and Russell Crowe doing what they do. Upper left, 405 00:19:07,348 --> 00:19:10,108 Speaker 1: the Commanders there they are, and then the Chargers is 406 00:19:10,228 --> 00:19:13,148 Speaker 1: kind of hanging around, hanging around Cardinals, the Cult McCoy Express. 407 00:19:13,188 --> 00:19:15,068 Speaker 1: Peter will do a Cult McCoy segment this week. I 408 00:19:15,108 --> 00:19:17,228 Speaker 1: guarantee it. See if he's playing in Mexico this week, 409 00:19:17,308 --> 00:19:19,228 Speaker 1: how about it? And then the Bears who score a 410 00:19:19,228 --> 00:19:22,548 Speaker 1: lot of points but never win. Next the Lord Commander 411 00:19:22,548 --> 00:19:24,668 Speaker 1: of the Knight's Watch Division. My watch is over, and 412 00:19:24,708 --> 00:19:27,148 Speaker 1: the bottom upper right, upper left corner, excuse me, upper 413 00:19:27,228 --> 00:19:29,548 Speaker 1: left corner. Round out the top ten. The Titans are 414 00:19:29,588 --> 00:19:32,588 Speaker 1: in there, and the Jets are in there, Bengals and 415 00:19:32,628 --> 00:19:34,708 Speaker 1: then Bucks coming on from Germany. These are the teams 416 00:19:34,708 --> 00:19:37,228 Speaker 1: that are almost big time. But lastly, we get to 417 00:19:37,268 --> 00:19:41,188 Speaker 1: the Cobra Commander Division, Love the g I Joe back 418 00:19:41,188 --> 00:19:43,348 Speaker 1: in the day and the Eagles off a loss. Now 419 00:19:43,348 --> 00:19:46,028 Speaker 1: this isn't me interesting. Did Dan stay up and change 420 00:19:46,068 --> 00:19:48,868 Speaker 1: this after the loss or did he mail this sucker in? 421 00:19:49,028 --> 00:19:51,388 Speaker 1: I doubt he did. Chief Still, second, where did the 422 00:19:51,428 --> 00:19:56,148 Speaker 1: Bills go? Click? It's interesting? Let here he is, Let's 423 00:19:56,188 --> 00:19:58,508 Speaker 1: ask him Dan. There you are. We want answers the 424 00:19:58,548 --> 00:20:00,868 Speaker 1: top of the rankings. Why the Eagles even off a 425 00:20:00,908 --> 00:20:04,748 Speaker 1: loss to a division rival. No, I'm super annoyed because 426 00:20:05,108 --> 00:20:06,748 Speaker 1: you guys, I do put a lot of work into 427 00:20:06,788 --> 00:20:08,988 Speaker 1: the power ranks, even though people in my mentions don't 428 00:20:09,028 --> 00:20:11,908 Speaker 1: think a lot goes into it. So I'm working all 429 00:20:11,948 --> 00:20:14,548 Speaker 1: through Monday doing the whole thing, and sometimes by the 430 00:20:14,588 --> 00:20:16,388 Speaker 1: time you get to Monday night football, you just want 431 00:20:16,428 --> 00:20:18,748 Speaker 1: to relax and watch the game and make a little 432 00:20:18,748 --> 00:20:21,788 Speaker 1: tweak before you send it out. And then the Eagles lose, 433 00:20:21,868 --> 00:20:24,148 Speaker 1: and it's just kind of a summation of the season 434 00:20:24,508 --> 00:20:26,508 Speaker 1: for both in the NFL and the Power rank is 435 00:20:26,548 --> 00:20:29,908 Speaker 1: that nothing is easy. But I kept the Eagles at 436 00:20:29,988 --> 00:20:32,708 Speaker 1: number one for a couple of reasons. One, I'm not 437 00:20:32,668 --> 00:20:35,068 Speaker 1: gonna say it was a fluky loss, but a lot 438 00:20:35,068 --> 00:20:39,028 Speaker 1: of the turnovers, the fact that they could not get 439 00:20:39,068 --> 00:20:41,428 Speaker 1: off the field on defense but gave up four point 440 00:20:41,508 --> 00:20:44,988 Speaker 1: yards four point one yards per play, the tikie tack 441 00:20:45,308 --> 00:20:47,748 Speaker 1: penalty on Brandon Graham. I don't know how many times 442 00:20:47,788 --> 00:20:49,668 Speaker 1: the Commanders win that game, if you played ten times. 443 00:20:49,668 --> 00:20:51,908 Speaker 1: I still feel really good about the Eagles, and beyond that, 444 00:20:51,908 --> 00:20:55,068 Speaker 1: the team's right beneath the Eagles and the power ranks 445 00:20:55,148 --> 00:20:58,068 Speaker 1: right now, they don't feel like number one. So the Eagles, 446 00:20:58,068 --> 00:20:59,748 Speaker 1: after weeks of trying to get to number one and 447 00:20:59,788 --> 00:21:02,268 Speaker 1: the Bills blocking them, maybe I'm giving them a little 448 00:21:02,268 --> 00:21:04,548 Speaker 1: bit of a pass here. Whatever, Come at me if 449 00:21:04,548 --> 00:21:09,428 Speaker 1: you disagree, Yeah, come at you. But anyone who questions 450 00:21:09,428 --> 00:21:11,908 Speaker 1: your integrity, I mean they just don't know what kind 451 00:21:11,908 --> 00:21:14,948 Speaker 1: of a man you. You don't do it ahead of 452 00:21:15,068 --> 00:21:18,748 Speaker 1: the Giants? What team do you root for? Again? Oh? 453 00:21:18,988 --> 00:21:24,028 Speaker 1: Stop speak of that. Being of that Bill's loss, I 454 00:21:24,068 --> 00:21:26,788 Speaker 1: love doing it. You have the Vikings ranked third? Are 455 00:21:26,788 --> 00:21:30,148 Speaker 1: you officially all in on Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings? 456 00:21:31,308 --> 00:21:34,268 Speaker 1: I mean I'm all in and that, Like, do I 457 00:21:34,308 --> 00:21:37,108 Speaker 1: have any more questions about the Vikings? Yes? I do. 458 00:21:37,108 --> 00:21:40,268 Speaker 1: Do you respect the Vikings. But they've done this year absolutely. 459 00:21:40,428 --> 00:21:42,868 Speaker 1: I mean, they beat the officials, they beat the Bills, 460 00:21:42,908 --> 00:21:46,948 Speaker 1: they did it in Buffalo, and that was gutty. And 461 00:21:47,108 --> 00:21:49,268 Speaker 1: I think it's been kind of almost a running joke 462 00:21:49,308 --> 00:21:50,908 Speaker 1: through the year is that when you looked at Kirk 463 00:21:50,948 --> 00:21:54,228 Speaker 1: Cousins and his career record, it's always exactly five hundred 464 00:21:54,228 --> 00:21:56,428 Speaker 1: when we start a new season every year. So for 465 00:21:56,468 --> 00:21:58,428 Speaker 1: them to go and win eight of nine to start 466 00:21:58,468 --> 00:22:01,548 Speaker 1: this season, it's really impressive. And now I think with 467 00:22:01,588 --> 00:22:05,268 Speaker 1: the Eagles losing, they're now tied in terms of record. 468 00:22:05,308 --> 00:22:07,708 Speaker 1: The tiebreaker goes to the Eagles. But Minnesota, you have 469 00:22:07,748 --> 00:22:10,508 Speaker 1: an opportunity here. You're gonna win your division. Go get 470 00:22:10,548 --> 00:22:13,468 Speaker 1: that number one seeds, shorten up the playoffs, host games 471 00:22:13,468 --> 00:22:15,708 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, and see what happens. It's all in 472 00:22:15,708 --> 00:22:18,988 Speaker 1: front of them now. Very exciting. I know it's been 473 00:22:19,148 --> 00:22:21,188 Speaker 1: about ten days now. But the last time we saw 474 00:22:21,228 --> 00:22:24,468 Speaker 1: the Jets they actually beat the Buffalo Bills. They got 475 00:22:24,508 --> 00:22:27,468 Speaker 1: that impressive win over Buffalo, we were in Munich, so 476 00:22:27,468 --> 00:22:29,468 Speaker 1: we didn't give you the chance to celebrate that as 477 00:22:29,468 --> 00:22:32,468 Speaker 1: a Jet fan. Now, of course they play the hated 478 00:22:32,508 --> 00:22:37,428 Speaker 1: New England Patriots, a team that's beating them thirteen straight times. Dan, 479 00:22:37,548 --> 00:22:39,468 Speaker 1: I ask you, why is this going to be any 480 00:22:39,508 --> 00:22:43,108 Speaker 1: different this time around? I don't know. Now I'm self 481 00:22:43,108 --> 00:22:45,508 Speaker 1: conscious talking about the Jets because of what Mike said. Peece, 482 00:22:45,588 --> 00:22:49,508 Speaker 1: this is this is awkward. Go for it, dude, do 483 00:22:49,548 --> 00:22:51,668 Speaker 1: you lean in? No, you can actually like being a 484 00:22:51,748 --> 00:22:54,748 Speaker 1: Jet fan this year? Yeah? No, you can't take that 485 00:22:54,788 --> 00:22:56,788 Speaker 1: away from me. No. I think I think that the 486 00:22:56,868 --> 00:22:59,468 Speaker 1: Jets have a huge opportunity. Obviously. I like that this 487 00:22:59,548 --> 00:23:01,668 Speaker 1: bye week, the timing of it. It gave you another 488 00:23:01,708 --> 00:23:04,148 Speaker 1: week to soak it in that victor over the Bills. 489 00:23:04,148 --> 00:23:06,428 Speaker 1: But if you go and you lose the Pats again 490 00:23:06,468 --> 00:23:08,948 Speaker 1: in New England, you kind of go back to ground 491 00:23:08,988 --> 00:23:11,308 Speaker 1: zero on some level. That said, I think they're a 492 00:23:11,348 --> 00:23:13,548 Speaker 1: better team than the Patriots, and the defense is a 493 00:23:13,548 --> 00:23:16,428 Speaker 1: major reason why Quinnon Williams has been a stut and 494 00:23:16,468 --> 00:23:19,188 Speaker 1: should be in the Defensive Player of the Year candidate race. 495 00:23:19,508 --> 00:23:22,028 Speaker 1: I like their defense shutting down Mac Jones, Zach Wilson 496 00:23:22,068 --> 00:23:25,828 Speaker 1: needs to be smart. Now to Miami Dolphins. You have 497 00:23:25,908 --> 00:23:28,908 Speaker 1: them ranked fourth, They're going into their byewig, they're rolling 498 00:23:29,068 --> 00:23:32,068 Speaker 1: or having fun, They're putting up points. Are you comfortable 499 00:23:32,068 --> 00:23:34,668 Speaker 1: putting them in the same breath as the Chiefs and 500 00:23:34,748 --> 00:23:38,028 Speaker 1: the Bills as powerhouses in the ANFC. Right now, I 501 00:23:38,068 --> 00:23:40,468 Speaker 1: think you have to, right, I mean, I think where 502 00:23:40,508 --> 00:23:42,428 Speaker 1: we have here a team that's on a four game 503 00:23:42,428 --> 00:23:45,908 Speaker 1: winning streak, that doesn't lose when twa plays a full game, 504 00:23:46,188 --> 00:23:48,348 Speaker 1: that in the last three weeks is averaging thirty five 505 00:23:48,428 --> 00:23:51,948 Speaker 1: points a game and four hundred and fifty yards per game, 506 00:23:52,588 --> 00:23:55,628 Speaker 1: team that embarrassed the Cleveland Browns defense after the Cleveland 507 00:23:55,628 --> 00:23:59,348 Speaker 1: Browns defense embarrassed Joe Burrow in the Bengals the previous week. 508 00:23:59,748 --> 00:24:02,668 Speaker 1: I mean, there's like the guy two is so on target. 509 00:24:02,828 --> 00:24:05,908 Speaker 1: He looks like Steve Young nineteen ninety five. Right now, 510 00:24:06,228 --> 00:24:08,028 Speaker 1: I think anyone in the AFC should be a little 511 00:24:08,028 --> 00:24:10,988 Speaker 1: scared of the Dolphins and where things go from here. 512 00:24:11,028 --> 00:24:14,708 Speaker 1: It's a really interesting subplot to track going forward. Yeah, 513 00:24:14,748 --> 00:24:17,748 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody laughing. McDaniel and Tyreech said, how accurate 514 00:24:17,788 --> 00:24:19,348 Speaker 1: too it is? And now he looks like one of 515 00:24:19,388 --> 00:24:21,468 Speaker 1: the best players league. You know. Be sure to check 516 00:24:21,508 --> 00:24:24,148 Speaker 1: out NFL pow Rank.

No album cover this week, Dan 518 00:24:27,228 --> 00:24:29,828 Speaker 1: Paul Rudd will be disappointed, but we always love Broadway. 519 00:24:29,908 --> 00:24:31,588 Speaker 1: Joe over your shoulder and we love you too. Man, 520 00:24:31,668 --> 00:24:39,028 Speaker 1: See you next week, Love you guys later. Mike Garafolo 521 00:24:39,068 --> 00:24:41,628 Speaker 1: is an intrepid reporter. Yesterday he brought out some really 522 00:24:41,668 --> 00:24:44,268 Speaker 1: interesting news about our friend Ian Rappaport. He told us 523 00:24:44,268 --> 00:24:46,388 Speaker 1: that Ian nearly burnt down his home. Ian got on 524 00:24:46,428 --> 00:24:49,348 Speaker 1: TV and explained that yes, he nearly burnt down his home, 525 00:24:49,388 --> 00:24:51,868 Speaker 1: but in a good reason. Why because he was in 526 00:24:51,948 --> 00:24:55,668 Speaker 1: himself a smoke off competition and was making his famous 527 00:24:55,748 --> 00:24:57,908 Speaker 1: pork belly lollipops. I'm not sure he was competing with, 528 00:24:57,948 --> 00:24:59,708 Speaker 1: but Ian was very proud of it. They showed the picture, 529 00:24:59,748 --> 00:25:02,548 Speaker 1: it looked delicious, and he of course added trigger grills. 530 00:25:02,548 --> 00:25:04,868 Speaker 1: Hopefully get something free out of it. What's the most 531 00:25:05,108 --> 00:25:08,988 Speaker 1: random award that you guys have ever won that you 532 00:25:09,108 --> 00:25:11,108 Speaker 1: take pride in? Kyle Brant, what do you say the 533 00:25:11,188 --> 00:25:13,388 Speaker 1: same universe is Zian Rappaport? Are you a cooking guy? 534 00:25:13,508 --> 00:25:16,428 Speaker 1: I'll have you know that about ten years ago I 535 00:25:16,428 --> 00:25:18,948 Speaker 1: won the South Orange County Chili cook Off, and I 536 00:25:19,028 --> 00:25:22,348 Speaker 1: have actual quote here from the Orange County Register. Did 537 00:25:22,428 --> 00:25:24,308 Speaker 1: not make this up, went back and found it. Look 538 00:25:24,348 --> 00:25:26,708 Speaker 1: at it here we go. The recipes were judged on 539 00:25:26,748 --> 00:25:29,548 Speaker 1: their appearance, Aroma color and taste. First prize, including an 540 00:25:29,548 --> 00:25:32,548 Speaker 1: event apron and fifty dollars went to Kyle Brant and 541 00:25:32,588 --> 00:25:36,108 Speaker 1: family for their Cowboy Chili. Calvin was one at the time, 542 00:25:36,148 --> 00:25:38,108 Speaker 1: and Brooke and I entered the chili contest and I 543 00:25:38,148 --> 00:25:41,428 Speaker 1: brought my Cowboy Chili and we won first place. I 544 00:25:41,508 --> 00:25:43,988 Speaker 1: was unbelievably proud of it. Then we brought it back 545 00:25:44,028 --> 00:25:45,828 Speaker 1: here a couple of years later and did a segment 546 00:25:45,868 --> 00:25:48,668 Speaker 1: on the show, and the other host decided to like 547 00:25:48,788 --> 00:25:51,028 Speaker 1: kick me in the groin and give me last place, 548 00:25:51,268 --> 00:25:52,868 Speaker 1: and they hated the chili, and I think they did 549 00:25:52,908 --> 00:25:55,268 Speaker 1: that to spite me. It's there a chance we can revisit, 550 00:25:55,628 --> 00:25:57,788 Speaker 1: bring the Chilian, because I'm willing to revisit. I think 551 00:25:58,028 --> 00:25:59,548 Speaker 1: at that time I was being influenced by the two 552 00:25:59,548 --> 00:26:01,508 Speaker 1: other hosts who are like, we don't want to give 553 00:26:01,588 --> 00:26:04,788 Speaker 1: Kyle his roses here. I actually liked it very much, 554 00:26:04,908 --> 00:26:07,468 Speaker 1: like all chili actually as dirt if it's in the cup, 555 00:26:07,788 --> 00:26:10,428 Speaker 1: dirt thirsty. My recipe. It's delicious, it's great, it's great. 556 00:26:12,228 --> 00:26:14,588 Speaker 1: Super Bowl would you win? Yeah, but forget about the 557 00:26:14,588 --> 00:26:16,428 Speaker 1: super Bowl. I'm going all the way back to sixth grade. 558 00:26:16,468 --> 00:26:18,868 Speaker 1: I was in this talent show. Devon and myself. We 559 00:26:18,948 --> 00:26:21,548 Speaker 1: saw on Casey and Joe Joe all my life, and 560 00:26:21,668 --> 00:26:24,428 Speaker 1: we throw on an amazing performance. The music was so 561 00:26:24,588 --> 00:26:26,868 Speaker 1: loud you couldn't hear our beautiful voices, but it was 562 00:26:26,948 --> 00:26:29,508 Speaker 1: the energy on the stage. And you see right there, 563 00:26:29,748 --> 00:26:32,508 Speaker 1: this is the after show after party. I'm in the 564 00:26:32,588 --> 00:26:35,188 Speaker 1: purple baseball jersey.

I'm very proud. I told 569 00:26:46,668 --> 00:26:49,268 Speaker 1: everybody about my singing voice. Who does the baby, Baby, 570 00:26:49,308 --> 00:26:52,228 Speaker 1: Baby Baby. We shared it all. I don't know how 571 00:26:52,268 --> 00:26:54,628 Speaker 1: we put it up, but we got purple white tux jersey. 572 00:26:55,708 --> 00:26:59,948 Speaker 1: That is what is an amazing picture.

I don't 578 00:27:13,668 --> 00:27:16,028 Speaker 1: remember the criteria. I think I played football and I 579 00:27:16,108 --> 00:27:18,668 Speaker 1: did okay in school, so that made me a top achiever. 580 00:27:18,748 --> 00:27:21,428 Speaker 1: I didn't go to the ceremony though, because I had 581 00:27:21,508 --> 00:27:25,348 Speaker 1: baseball practice. And what was amazing was the next day 582 00:27:25,508 --> 00:27:27,708 Speaker 1: in school I just heard from a bunch of people 583 00:27:27,748 --> 00:27:31,108 Speaker 1: because Channel six Actual News cut into the ceremony for 584 00:27:31,228 --> 00:27:34,108 Speaker 1: some reason, and at that point they said my name, 585 00:27:34,188 --> 00:27:36,468 Speaker 1: and so my name was on the news and everybody 586 00:27:36,588 --> 00:27:39,068 Speaker 1: saw it, and it was like, they sent me this award, 587 00:27:39,108 --> 00:27:40,348 Speaker 1: and I said I should have been there for that 588 00:27:40,428 --> 00:27:43,348 Speaker 1: sea My mother to this day is regretting that.
