00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 3: It's something you.

163
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 7: Want to star quarterback names to Aaron Rodgers one of

164
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 7: the all time greats Lamar one of the best of

165
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 7: the last six, seven, eight years.

166
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 6: So yeah, there's a lot a lot on it here.

167
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 4: Here here's the rub between me and you. You believe

168
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 4: that they still can put it together and still make

169
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 4: a run in the postseason, and I'm gonna say no,

170
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 4: but I'd love to hear your case first.

171
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 7: So you and I have both the preseason, we both

172
00:07:58,560 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 7: picked the Ravens to make the Super Bowl.

173
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 4: I'm glad you said that because I did pick them,

174
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 4: But I'm not there anymore now.

175
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 6: I'm clearly not.

176
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 7: I don't think like that wouldn't be my pick right

177
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 7: now if you say the AFC. But the reason I was,

178
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 7: you know, as we think about who's gonna play, we

179
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 7: get the reports that Lamar is gonna play. He said,

180
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 7: Obviously I'm one hundred percent going you know, I'm never

181
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 7: gonna quit on this team. John Harbady talked to even

182
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 7: Lamar mentioned the fact that all the reports that you

183
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 7: know he's not watching film and all that he's like,

184
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 7: y'all think John let me fall asleep in the film

185
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 7: room and all that. So there's what my point in this.

186
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 7: It's not so much that the Ravens have been great

187
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 7: this season. We know they've been on and off. Hens

188
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 7: why they're you know, their record hints why they're in

189
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 7: the position they are. And is that to me when

190
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 7: you have the one of the most skilled in the

191
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 7: last few years. I've caught him the best quarterback, best player,

192
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 7: and you you sat there with me, agree with that

193
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 7: when you have him, when you have a running back that.

194
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 6: We all agree that there don't feature him enough.

195
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 7: And Derrick Henry could be the key to them moving

196
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 7: along and getting into the postseason. Well, they're rushing. They

197
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 7: leave the rushing in rushing yards for a tip. They're rushing.

198
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 7: When they rush the ball like they did last week

199
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,439
Speaker 7: over three hundred yards, they become very scary. Right then

200
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 7: you look at what they can do offensively. They can

201
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 7: be eleventh in the league and scoring offense, averaging twenty

202
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 7: five points per game. So I'm looking at it like this,

203
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 7: if I have a Lamar Jackson who's relatively healthy, nobody's

204
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 7: healthy healthy at the end of a long season like this,

205
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 7: and I'm featuring King Derrick Henry again like you should be.

206
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 7: You got a thousand yard receiver and Zay Henry or

207
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 7: Jay Flowers. I'm sorry, and you and I have talked

208
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 7: about this, Rob. It's always some weird, fluky, crazy thing

209
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 7: that happens if they can just not shoot themselves in

210
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 7: the foot, not beat cheddar Bob from the movie as

211
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 7: of course eight mile. My whole thing is, Rob, They've

212
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 7: got a shot in the sense that to me, there's

213
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 7: no Bohemith in the AFC. Maybe it's the Patriots the

214
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 7: most complete team, maybe I'll give it to them, But

215
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 7: aside from that, there's no complete team. You look at

216
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 7: the Bills. They're reliant on Josh Allen, that's pretty much it.

217
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 7: Receiving corps is not great running game with James Cook.

218
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 7: Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not. In The defense can

219
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 7: be spotty as well. I still don't know if I

220
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 7: believe in what the Broncos are able to despite their record,

221
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 7: And then I don't know about justin herbing the Chargers

222
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 7: they's good, sometimes they're not great. So if you're the

223
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 7: Ravens and you can punch your ticket with him, with

224
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 7: Lamar Jackson, we run the ball bar with Henry and

225
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 7: you don't shoot yourself in the foot, I'm like, hey,

226
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 7: you get in the tournament, you got a shot. Because

227
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 7: the AFC, in my opinion, none of the teams do

228
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 7: you look at and say, that's a complete team. That's

229
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,439
Speaker 7: a boheman, that's a team you gotta worry for about,

230
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 7: except maybe maybe the Patriots.

231
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, here's where I'm gonna push back, And I think

232
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 4: it's wishful thinking. They just haven't been good all year

233
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 4: and everybody keeps giving them the benefit of the doubt

234
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 4: because of their roster on paper, just talked about it.

235
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 4: It's nice. Oh yeah, Derek Henry had this big game. Yeah,

236
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 4: let's just do that. Well, here's the problem. They have

237
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 4: a bad coach and John Harball. They've had terrible game

238
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 4: plans every time there's a big game. Do you remember

239
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 4: the AFC Championship game where they didn't run the football

240
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 4: against the Chiefs and they threw the ball all over

241
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 4: the field, And you said, everybody after that game went,

242
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 4: what is this?

243
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 3: What team is this.

244
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 4: They run the football, but in that game plan it

245
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 4: was passing Zay Flowers you brought up going to the

246
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 4: Pro Bowl with two touchdowns and three intercepts.

247
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 3: Three fumbles, right like, like two touchdowns and three fumbles.

248
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 3: That's your your wide receiver there, Lamar.

249
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 4: Ever, since he's come back from injury, go look at

250
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:53,319
Speaker 4: the numbers. They're awful. They're not They're not not good.

251
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 4: They're awful. He's been awful since and now he's coming

252
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 4: off another injury with a back injury, trying to go

253
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 4: out there and play too many issues. They scored forty

254
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 4: points in Buffalo, they lost. We've seen in and out

255
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 4: of the defense. Nothing has been consistent. There was a

256
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 4: point when they had a chance to get right. And

257
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 4: you'll remember this.

258
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 3: They had two.

259
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 4: Games week thirteen, in Week fourteen, both at home, both

260
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 4: against the Bengals and the Steelers.

261
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 3: They lost both games.

262
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 4: They lost both games thirty two fourteen and twenty seven

263
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 4: to twenty two. That was their season to me right there.

264
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 4: They had a chance to get that going, you know

265
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 4: what I mean, put something together. They gave up the

266
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 4: game against the Patriots at the end, I can't count

267
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,439
Speaker 4: on the defense I can't count on the coaching. I

268
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 4: can't count on Lamar, I can't count on say Flowers.

269
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 4: I can't count on Derek Henwed who has fumble lights.

270
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 4: Who can I count on? I can't count on anybody.

271
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 4: I've been picking the Ravens for three years, no loss.

272
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna do it to myself anymore. I can't.

273
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 4: I'm expecting everything to come together all of a sudden

274
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 4: after everything has been.

275
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,839
Speaker 3: Awful all year long.

276
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 4: Whin if they played great there that one game of

277
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 4: twenty four to nothing shut out, Oh yeah, they got

278
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:23,079
Speaker 4: it back together.

279
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 3: Whatever, dude, I'm not buying a Ravens.

280
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 7: I'm not listening, Rob. I'm not mad at you by that.

281
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 7: They're not the Ravens that you and I hope they

282
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 7: would be.

283
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 6: No preseason when you look at roster, I completely get that.

284
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 7: And again the big one of the big components for

285
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 7: me is that this is one of the rare seasons

286
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 7: where again Tom Brady h is not sitting there with

287
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 7: the Patriots, and so it's like if they if they

288
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 7: if they were if they went up against the Jags,

289
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 7: you know, if they if they marched up against them,

290
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 7: if they marched up against the Texans very great defense.

291
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 6: Sections are incredible defense.

292
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 3: I think you're looking at it at and I hear you,

293
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 3: but you're.

294
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 4: Looking at it at the Lamar playing MVP football like that, like.

295
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 6: You well, looking at fully like that. I picked it.

296
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 6: I picked him.

297
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 4: But I'm saying if Lamar was playing really good, then

298
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 4: I would buy that. He's gonna look at his numbers, Kelvin.

299
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 4: He's not close to what he was a year ago.

300
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 4: And he got off to a great start the first

301
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: three or four games.

302
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 3: He put up.

303
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 4: Forty points in Buffalo to start the season and they lost.

304
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 3: And do you trust John Harbaugh and his game plans?

305
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 3: I don't. I don't trust it.

306
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 7: The thing for me, rob is again, if they're the

307
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 7: way their team is set up, if they can, if

308
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 7: they you brought up earlier, if John Harball uses his

309
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 7: brain realizes I have a six foot two monthster back

310
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 7: there and runs the ball, And if Lamar Jackson taking

311
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 7: a week off or so, has gotten a little bit healthier,

312
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 7: realizes that he can run the ball a little bit

313
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 7: more and that he can, you know, get if they

314
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 7: don't shoot themselves in the post. How many games are

315
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 7: you and I talk about this? Should they have won.

316
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 7: Lively catches the ball. They got a couple of games

317
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 7: where he didn't fumble in the end zone, or they

318
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 7: could rule it.

319
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 6: Not a catch.

320
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 7: You got Zay Flowers if he catches the ball, and

321
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 7: they could win some games. They have had some games

322
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 7: that they could be sitting here automatically in the poleseason.

323
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 7: Let alone need to win because maybe they're sitting here

324
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 7: at eleven and you know it would ultimately a chance

325
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 7: to be eleven and six. So I'm saying this season, particular,

326
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 7: the way the AFC is set up, the way Lamar

327
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 7: is still that talented, and the way Derrick Henry is,

328
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 7: if they can just get in that, I wouldn't want

329
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 7: to play Shoot, I gotta play that guy.

330
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's what everybody said last year with the

331
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 4: Lakers and Lebron and Luca.

332
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 6: Oh you know, Okay, Lamar Jackson is not seventy two years.

333
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 4: I don't want to see those guys. No, I'm just

334
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 4: saying Lamar Jackson. Okay, that was off for Rep though.

335
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 4: It's all I'm saying, and this is off for Lamar

336
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 4: Rep not how he's playing now. You go look at

337
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 4: his game logs recently there's no reason for me to

338
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 4: believe they gonna come out and throw four touchdowns, no interceptions,

339
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 4: have one hundred and fifty quarterback rating or whatever it is.

340
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 4: I just don't see that. I would be I would

341
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 4: be stunned, That's all I'm saying. All right, eight seven

342
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: to seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven, seven nine nine,

343

Speaker 4: six sixty three sixty nine, Kelvin is all in on.

344
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 3: The Ravens today. They can make it. What you said,

345
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 3: they can make a run if they.

346
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 6: You put so many l's in at all Roight, there's

347
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 6: a few too many als.

348
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 4: I'm not buying the Ravens. I think they lose to Pittsburgh.

349
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 4: I just think the season that they've had does not

350
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 4: convince me that they're gonna flip the switch and beat

351
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 4: a team that we thought they would be when the

352

Speaker 6: Ninety nine on Fox.

395
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,959
Speaker 7: I was simply saying, Hey, the way the Ravens are

396
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:49,400
Speaker 7: still built in Lamar being Lamar and Derrick Henry. If

397
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 7: they get into the postseason with no Bohemis sitting there

398
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 7: in AFC, maybe just maybe they can sneak a win or.

399
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 6: So Rob says, no way, no, how, what say you?

400
00:18:59,680 --> 00:18:59,720

Speaker 6: Here we go.

404
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 3: With Sean in Wisconsin. Sean, you're in the couple of

405
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio. What's up, I'm man, what's going on?

406
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 3: Tell Happy New Year.

407
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 6: Happy New Year to you, Happy New Year, Happy New Year.

408
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 11: So every new year, I think the Steelers are gonna win.

409
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 11: I think the Ravens are gonna lose. And honestly, I

410
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 11: don't think it matters who wins. I think they're both

411
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 11: going to lose in the first round.

412
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 3: Okay, that's fine, that's fine, that's fair. I mean we're

413
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: I don't think.

414
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 6: I don't think. Yeah.

415
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 4: But but the idea, why don't you believe in the Ravens,

416
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 4: That's really what we're trying.

417
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 11: To get to because Lamar Jackson just don't look like

418
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 11: the Lamar Jackson that we've a comcast.

419
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.

420
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 4: He doesn't he really and lead to lap can you

421
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 4: look up Lamar's numbers? Seriously, his last four or five games, Kelvin,

422
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 4: you've seen him.

423
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 3: I don't have him.

424
00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 6: In front of me.

425
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 11: So it's but I.

426
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 4: Picked the Ravens too, you know what I mean for me,

427
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 4: and I never did to go.

428
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 3: Off my pick. Whenever a chance I could be like.

429
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,160
Speaker 4: Oh I'm all about the ravensh let me let they

430
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 4: get in and now they're gonna run the table. Man,

431
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 4: I just can't. I just can't see it. They've been

432
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 4: so bad in so many areas. Thanks, Sean, I appreciate

433
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 4: the shit, no doubt. You're welcome, all right, eight seven,

434
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 4: seven ninety nine on Fox. How about Albert in Riverside, California.

435
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 4: You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Albert?

436
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 8: What's up?

437
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 3: Guys?

438
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 12: How are you hey to me?

439
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 13: I'm doing good to me. The Ravens, Yeah, they're not

440
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 13: gonna go far in the playoffs, but I think they

441
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 13: will be Pittsburgh this this weekend because the students cost

442
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 13: themselves with that loss in Cleveland and not having DK

443
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 13: Metcalf because you saw against Cleveland they couldn't score anything.

444
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 13: So I think against the Ravens defense, I think it's

445
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 13: gonna be tough for them, and Lamarvel will do just

446
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 13: enough to win this game.

447
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 6: I'm gonna tell you.

448
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,199
Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you the part Albert, that people in

449
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 4: fact didn't factor in it.

450
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 3: I'm just I'm not making an excuse.

451
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 4: The raven I mean the Steelers had lost like four

452
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 4: in a row or four out of five in Cleveland.

453
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 4: Like sometimes division rivals, it doesn't matter who comes in,

454
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 4: what the story is, they just have something over them,

455
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 4: and that game was so weird, so many calls plays.

456
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 4: I'm still just not buying into the Ravens.

457
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 3: But I hear your point.

458
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,880
Speaker 13: The DK Metcalf thing. Is that a thing because without him,

459
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 13: like I said, they have no receiving corps that you

460
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 13: can trust out there for Rogers still the football too.

461
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 3: I just look, I.

462
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 4: Look at I look at what they did against the

463
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 4: Lions with those explosive plays, and I think that's where

464
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,919
Speaker 4: the Steelers want to be. And I'm not saying that

465
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 4: and not having DK Metcalf is a good thing. It's

466
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 4: a bad thing. But I just the way the Ravens

467
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 4: implode and and and do things to themselves. Kelvin, thanks

468
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 4: for the car, Albert h. That's what bothers me with

469
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 4: them is that I don't believe I can trust them.

470
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 7: Listen, I ain't saying it like they're one of the

471
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,680

475
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 7: if he only had two catches, the thread of him

476
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 7: going deep, the fact that him running full speed down

477
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 7: the field. What it does to safeties, what it does

478
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,640
Speaker 7: the linebackers having to keep an eye on him and

479
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,919

482
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,520

539
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 7: you want to take a couple more calls before kind

540
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 7: of same game, but pivot a little bit.

541
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, let's do that. We'll take a couple more.

542
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 4: And then you can wrap up this segment a little

543
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 4: bit about the Pittsburgh and what potentially could happen here.

544
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 3: But we got a few more to get to. Jake

545
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 3: in Kansas City. You're on the odd couple of Fox

546
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,400

547
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 8: Hey, what's up guys?

548
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 6: Happy New Year, New year to you brother.

549
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 11: Yeah.

550
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 8: If you watch the Coasters first half of the season,

551
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 8: you can see the subpar quarterback boss behind a great

552
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 8: offensive line can turn into a good quarterback. But the

553
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 8: Raven's got the other equation going.

554
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 11: They've got a good.

555
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 8: Quarterback behind a subpar offensive If they can't protect them

556
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 8: during the regular season, what's going to happen with them?

557
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 8: Exotic blitzes and coverages that he hasn't seen all year.

558
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 6: Is going to happen.

559
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 8: It's winner go home, and they could have protect him

560
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 8: or protect him, and now that he's injured, it's probably

561
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 8: gonna be even worse, and that's why they're going to

562
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 8: be one and done.

563
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 4: Okay, appreciate you, Thank you so much. Appreciate that. David

564
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 4: in Baltimore. You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio.

565
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 12: What's up, David, Hi, good evening, Thanks for taking my call.

566
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 12: Happy New Year.

567
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 6: How are we too happy with you?

568
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 12: Well, I'm a lifelong Baltimore Ravens fan. I've lived in

569
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 12: Baltimore my whole life, and season ticket holder since the

570
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 12: very beginning. I'm actually going up to the game awesome,

571
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,880
Speaker 12: and it's very rare in life that no matter what happens,

572
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 12: it's perfect. But either the Ravens are going to win

573
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 12: and go to the playoffs as a four seed where

574
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 12: they've won the super Bowl twice as a four seed,

575
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 12: or I almost argue it's better they lose and John

576
00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 12: Harbo finally gets fired. Four years. I've been advocating, no, no,

577
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 12: for ten years. I've been advocating for John Harvell to

578
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 12: get fired and it hasn't happened. And I believe if

579
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 12: they lose on Sunday, it will.

580
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 4: And you know what, David As you know, I'm on

581
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:14,360
Speaker 4: that bandwagon with you.

582
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 3: I'm just enough is enough already?

583
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 4: How many poor seasons, I mean, great seasons have to

584
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:26,360
Speaker 4: end with major disappointments Calvin again right in the postseason.

585
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,199
Speaker 4: Every year you look at them and go, oh, they

586
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 4: could make a run. Oh look at they got everything.

587
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,399
Speaker 4: They added Derek Henry. Hey he I don't never remember

588
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 4: Derek Henry as being a fumbler.

589
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 3: Now he fumbles all the time, right.

590
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 12: One hundred percent. And it's also, you know, I think

591
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,399
Speaker 12: the locker room's just tired of the same messaging. Help me,

592
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 12: Harball's messaging has gotten stale. I just think they need

593
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 12: new life, they need a new voice. I think they've

594
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 12: got a lot of talent, but I'm so tired of

595
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 12: the ridiculous go for it on fourth down and not

596
00:27:55,680 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 12: get it, the ridiculous coasters challenge, the poor clock management. Yeah,

597
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,919
Speaker 12: And honestly, it's just so many things, And honestly, I

598
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 12: think it could be. I think there's some really talented

599
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 12: coaches out there, Like, for example, if we lose on Sunday,

600
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 12: I'd be calling off the head coach of Indiana and

601
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 12: offering him a job, because I think that guy wins

602
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 12: wherever he.

603
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 6: Goes, and I don't think you're going to necessarily leave.

604
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 4: But I got day a great, great call in that. Hey,

605
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 4: he's like one of these fans saying, Kelvin, I'm almost

606
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 4: if I want my team to lose, almost so we

607
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 4: can get away from John Harbat there people like that,

608
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 4: knowing that if they win, then you make yourself another

609
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 4: excuse on why to keep John hallball. And then they

610
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 4: get knocked out in the first run, you know, the

611
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 4: first game. Then you go right back, right back to

612
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 4: where you are.

613
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 7: Well, what about the other side of this, Rob, Are

614
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 7: we looking at a case where the fans of Pittsburgh

615
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 7: the fans in Baltimore maybe feel the same way? Meeting

616
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 7: great obviously, all right, cool? Getting a playoffs, you got

617
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 7: a shot. You never know, But if we lose, maybe

618
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 7: this could be the end for our coach, because the

619
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 7: same thing could be a question on the other side.

620
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 7: You and I have talked about it, Tomlin after nineteen seasons,

621
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 7: which is an amazing run, especially in this day and

622
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 7: age of sports where we've seen coaches of the year

623
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 7: or coaches be harrow, didn't you know kind of go

624
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 7: from first to worse and get fired the next season. So, uh,

625
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 7: Mike Tomlin, I'm wondering the same thing. Record is just

626
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 7: go ahead, go ahead.

627
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 4: No, they was just say with the Tomlin thing, it's

628
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 4: the organization because they've had three coaches in sixty years,

629
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 4: you know. So I get it, and he has that.

630
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 4: He hasn't had a losing record, but they don't fire coaches.

631
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 6: That's what.

632
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 7: Okay, So let me throw this at you. You're right,

633
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 7: there's no debating that's a fact. Put an exclamation point.

634
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 6: We know that.

635
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 7: But the question becomes what becomes fire or bull How

636
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 7: many seasons of not producing, not being where you want

637
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 7: to be becomes a question. He's eight and eleven in

638
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 7: postseason games. You look at his predecessors. Bill Kower was

639
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,239
Speaker 7: twelve and nine, Chuck Noll was sixteen and eight. So

640
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 7: you start to say, dang, it's not even like we're

641
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 7: five hundred in the playoff r If I told you

642
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 7: I've actually I would you know, I've looked these numbers up.

643
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 7: But if you have told me a couple of years ago,

644
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 7: I'd be shocked at that. I thought, oh, yeah, he's

645
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 7: eleven and a you know, five hundred eight and eleven

646
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 7: in the playoffs for Mike Tomlin is kind of shocking

647
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 7: for a blue blood of the NFL. And how many

648
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 7: times are you gonna keep making excuses where you're like, well, hey,

649
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 7: at least we're above five hundred, Hey, we didn't have

650
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 7: a losing season.

651
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 6: Hey, at least we got to the postseason.

652
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 7: And I also think what could be concerning is that

653
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 7: if you were to lose, you don't make the postseason.

654
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 7: And now if Aaron Rodgers says, you know, hey, man

655
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 7: had a good run, we gave it a good shot.

656
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 7: I'm a call a career. There's no contingency plan, you know.

657
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 7: So if you're sitting there, you're like, all right, we

658
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 7: got Mike TWN. We loving him, we believe in him.

659
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 7: He's been our guy, and thankfully we got this young quarterback.

660
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 7: Maybe even if it was I don't think he's been great,

661
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 7: But say it's JJ McCarthy or something where you're like,

662
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 7: we got our guy. He's young, but we're gonna be

663
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 7: even better next year. They don't have that at all.

664
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 7: And so that's also what makes this pretty damning, is

665
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 7: that there's.

666
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 6: No but uh plan. I think he doesn't make the postseason.

667
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 7: Rob like, what's the what's the goal, what's the angle,

668
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 7: where's the optimism?

669
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 4: But but I don't think if you think they don't

670
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 4: have any kind of plan as far as going forward,

671
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 4: I'm not saying the guys in house, but I'm sure

672
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 4: that they have to have some names and people.

673
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 7: Why though, why do you believe that, because we've seen

674
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 7: plenty of organizations that have on.

675
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 4: Because I think the Steelers, even with where they are

676
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 4: and they've had, they've tried, They've they've drafted people quarterbacks

677
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 4: they didn't work out, they weren't good.

678
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 3: Like It's not like they didn't draft people.

679
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 7: They but that's what I'm saying. So if you don't

680
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 7: have I get what you're saying they have.

681
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 3: It's not like they have.

682
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 4: It's not like they haven't like they just went without

683
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 4: a quarterback.

684
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 3: Go look at Mason Rudolph. Those guys. They just didn't

685
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 3: work like they've they drafted guy.

686
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 7: And part of the part of the not working is

687
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 7: that they've not been good with offense for a decade,

688
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 7: right since the last little bit that they had of

689
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 7: good Ben Roethlis.

690
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 4: I'm just saying they've tried to bring in their own

691
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 4: guy and get a quarterback in the draft or whatever.

692
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 3: It just hasn't worked and they haven't.

693
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 4: And you're right, that's like their glaring thing.

694
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, and the defense is supposed to be good. It's

695
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 6: not just great this year.

696
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 7: They're all the you know, they run the ball though

697
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 7: Jerome Bettis ain't walking through that door. You know, Le'Veon

698
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 7: Bell in his prime and walking through that door. They

699
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 7: haven't run the ball well. And so up against the

700
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 7: Lions when they ran for they all of a sudden

701
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,959
Speaker 7: they look like, no, I'm just turning. You're right, they

702
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 7: look like the return of Jim Brown was out there.

703
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 7: That was the biggest game of the year, and they

704
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 7: ran because.

705
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 6: They they now would be this Sunday.

706
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 4: But if they didn't win that game and then lost

707
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 4: in Cleveland, it'd be a rock you know what I

708
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 4: mean Like that that that Lions game was a huge game.

709
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 7: But I'm wondering, are we looking at a situation where

710
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 7: if they lose, now you can do the whole Well,

711
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 7: we didn't make the postseason, right now you can kind

712
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 7: of check that box that he had had had in

713
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 7: his favor. Now he said, well, we didn't make the postseason.

714
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 7: We didn't look that great Aaron Rodgers, does he retire?

715
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 6: Does he move on?

716
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 7: Meaning if that's the guy you kind of hit your

717
00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 7: wagon to Mike Tomlin and it doesn't go great, do

718
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 7: you mess around and lose both of them?

719
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 6: Hey, we're ready to move on after night.

720
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 7: Listen, nineteen season is incredible, Like there may be a

721
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 7: mutual part of the way.

722
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 6: It's like nobody's mad at you.

723
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 7: We had a great run, we got a couple of

724
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,239
Speaker 7: super Bowl appearances, we got one ring out of it,

725
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 7: and let's move on. And then Aaron Rodgers, who is

726
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 7: his bro, would likely retire.

727
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 6: I mean, where do they go?

728
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 7: That's just the biggest thing for me, Rob is that

729
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 7: I just don't see the future where you're like, oh,

730
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 7: this looks good because they got this, you know Jade

731
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 7: and Daniels that I know he was nicked up, but

732
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 7: dang it, we got him moving forward, or you know

733
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 7: we got this other young guy, Oh we got our

734
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 7: our bow knicks or Drake May that's going to be better.

735
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 6: I just I don't see any bright spots with them.

736
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 7: And I see the same thing why I was saying

737
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 7: this last summer or last offseason. It looks like to me,

738
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 7: they're gonna look the same next season. Now they have

739
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 7: an offseason to prove me wrong. But it just doesn't

740
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 7: look like an inspiring team. And at what point do

741
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 7: they say we had a great.

742
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 3: So let me ask you.

743
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 4: If they beat the Ravens, win the division, and win

744
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 4: a playoff game, then what would you what would be

745
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 4: your take.

746
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 3: On the Steelers?

747
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 7: It would be the same, Okay, just in that I

748
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 7: don't look at it.

749
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 3: It wouldn't be the same.

750
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers as the starting quarterback for the Steels with

751
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 4: nine and five, So you can look at it and

752
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 4: say it's the same as Russell Wilson.

753
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 3: It's not. You're not being You're not being genuine.

754
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 4: He's nine to five and I'm just saying nothing. If

755
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 4: they win the game and they win the division, no

756
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 4: way you thought they would win the division, And if

757
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 4: they get into the playoffs, they would host a playoff game.

758
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 4: Save the Chargers come in and they beat him on

759
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 4: a cold weather game, a defensive struggle, and they win

760
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 4: that game, then their season is a success as far

761
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 4: as what they wanted, because I told you the whole

762
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 4: way through, all they wanted was a competent quarterback and

763
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,879
Speaker 4: a chance to win a playoff game, and I think

764
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 4: that's what they're vying for.

765
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 3: If that happens, Mike Tomlin's not going anywhere. Would you

766
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 3: agree with that?

767
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 7: I don't know, because my point would be, they haven't

768
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 7: looked good.

769
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,359
Speaker 6: They haven't looked great in quite some time. They haven't

770
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 6: looked like there's.

771
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,879
Speaker 4: No way they're making a change or a coach if

772
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 4: you go with you in a playoff game.

773
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 7: I just if you look at the we see what

774
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 7: Rabel and the Patriots have become. You see what Peyton

775
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 7: has done with the with the Broncos. You see what

776
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,720
Speaker 7: Ryan's has done with the Texans, you see what Cohen

777
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,879
Speaker 7: has done with the Jags, And like you're like, oh shoot, these.

778
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 6: Teams are good. These teams are coming.

779
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 3: Texans didn't even make the playoffs last year.

780
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 7: But right they in three seasons they made the postseason

781
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,720
Speaker 7: now twice. They look great this year. The last eight weeks,

782
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 7: eight in a row. You have something to do. Just yes,

783
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,839
Speaker 7: the Steelers look, in my opinion, the same, and there's

784
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 7: just no life there.

785
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 6: And that's why I'm like, when do you pull the plug?

786
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 6: It's a real question.

787
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 7: I'm really asking when let's just move on.

788
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 3: I just don't see that.

789
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 4: I think if they go to the play win the

790
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 4: division and win a playoff game, so they're go, it's

791
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 4: going to be the same exact it's going to be

792
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 4: the same exact thing where they'll try it again next year,

793
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 4: try to add some other pieces.

794
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 6: So way, move on. Rob Parker would say that about

795
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 6: other you, I wouldn't say that you.

796
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 4: No, I'm going to tell you why, because that's how

797
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 4: the Denver Broncos they won a super Bowl. The Denver

798
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 4: Broncos won a Super Bowl with Peyton Manning. Go look

799
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,840
Speaker 4: at that team before and after. It wasn't a great team.

800
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 4: Peyton Manning was the quarterback. They got their Super Bowl

801
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,919
Speaker 4: out of it, and then they moved on.

802
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 3: Those people aren't still there.

803
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 6: But Peyton Manning set records with touchdowns.

804
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 3: No, no, not the year that he won.

805
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 7: Some say, right, So what I'm saying is, you saw,

806
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 7: oh Man, look at this that year he got Their

807
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 7: defense was all right, and then their defense was one

808
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 7: of the better ones in the last twenty years.

809
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,800
Speaker 4: They weren't even favorite in that super Bowl that it

810
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 4: would they played great and they beat uh, Cam Newton

811
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,879
Speaker 4: and Cam Newton and the turnovers there and they did.

812
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 3: It was the defense Peyton Man.

813
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 11: Team.

814
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 7: And this is why we just disagree. They looked they

815
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 7: looked like the same.

816
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 4: It's not the same team as a year ago. Eight seven,

817
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 4: seven ninety nine on Foxes out number. It is the

818
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 4: odd couple coming up. We got a little uh.

819
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,120

Speaker 4: A little Shekel city coming up. That and much more.
