<v Speaker 1>But I love picking up the Christmas tree. I love

0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:58.200
<v Speaker 1>the smell of the Christmas tree. And I got eight

<v Speaker 1>and ten. You know, I coach him in sports a lot,

<v Speaker 1>and they're into Christmas like, oh like at that age

0:01:04.280 --> 0:01:06.479
<v Speaker 1>they can't wait. I don't know who I was listening,

0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:09.679
<v Speaker 1>So we should uh not really talk about Santa And no, no, no,

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.720
<v Speaker 1>not at all, But I do want to say, yeah,

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:16.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm very excited for the month of December is really good.

0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:19.600
<v Speaker 1>I maintain Rob that March and November are the two

0:01:19.600 --> 0:01:22.080
<v Speaker 1>greatest months for sports. Obviously, I'm a big March madness

0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:24.600
<v Speaker 1>geek uh. If you follow me on social media, you

0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>know I gamble on college basketball all the time, and

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:30.119
<v Speaker 1>I love November because college football ramps up. We got

0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:33.600
<v Speaker 1>the huge Ohio State Michigan game this weekend. Your guy

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:37.640
<v Speaker 1>Jim Harball another successful season. But Rob wants to dump

0:01:37.640 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 1>on him. We'll do that a little bit later. Successful, Yeah,

0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean Michigan. Michigan has one mythical national championship since

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the Louisiana purchase. Are you talking about season? Is anything

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:58.600
<v Speaker 1>they can't build staff around the country at like nine

0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:01.680
<v Speaker 1>or ten games. No, maybe we'll talk about the Cincinnati

0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Bearcats getting into the playoff. I think we're gonna talk

0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:07.880
<v Speaker 1>about the Warriors and Steph Curry. But gosh, Steph Curry

0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:09.760
<v Speaker 1>is fun to watch. He is right now the greatest

0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:12.960
<v Speaker 1>show in sports. That's undeniable. He's playing the Washington Generals

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:16.680
<v Speaker 1>every night and two baby. He also leaves the league

0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:20.120
<v Speaker 1>in buckets of confetti after he makes a three cabot

0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:22.600
<v Speaker 1>that Rob Parker loves to dump on all the things

0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 1>that are good and right about American sports. Lebron James

0:02:26.440 --> 0:02:29.600
<v Speaker 1>the Goat, one of the greatest stories in basketball. Steph Curry,

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean he wants to bag on the Dallas Cowboys.

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Let me guess. We got Matt Stafford and the Rams

0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:38.880
<v Speaker 1>in a huge game, colossal game with Aaron Rodgers at

0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Lambeau Sunday. It is probably the marquee game of Sunday.

0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:44.880
<v Speaker 1>It is. The Rams have lost two straight after the

0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 1>seven and one start when Matt Stafford was talked about

0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:50.880
<v Speaker 1>as a potential MVP candidate. Is still I think he's

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 1>in the discussion. Nobody's won or lost the MVP in

0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Week eleven and a history of football, so I'm not

0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:59.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna overreact. But Matt Stafford has not been very good

0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:00.679
<v Speaker 1>the last two games. He's dealing with a bit of

0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 1>a bum wheel the ankle. Oh, here we go. Beckham,

0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:07.080
<v Speaker 1>who we know is toxic. I mean, goodness, gracious, Odell Beckham.

0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:11.080
<v Speaker 1>He's been a disaster since the catch. Rob, I'm gonna

0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:12.959
<v Speaker 1>give you the floor. Here to go and go after

0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Matt Stafford, who is you know, former number one pick

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:17.480
<v Speaker 1>has yet to win a playoff game, but he's put

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>up for outstanding numbers throughout his career. Yeah, that's why

0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:23.919
<v Speaker 1>he has a nickname in Detroit as stat Padford because

0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:26.639
<v Speaker 1>a lot of those numbers have a well, I'm just

0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:29.920
<v Speaker 1>being honest with a lot of those numbers came after

0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:33.079
<v Speaker 1>the lines were down twenty one nothing and defenses relaxed.

0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm just trying to tell you the history of Matthew

0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Stafford is that he doesn't beat the good teams the

0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:41.840
<v Speaker 1>team's over five hundred. He has some crazy record and

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 1>don't quote me, but it's something like nine and sixty

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 1>nine against teams that finish over five hundred. And that's

0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:54.320
<v Speaker 1>ultimately what if you're a Rams fan you have to

0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:57.280
<v Speaker 1>be worried about. Because you talked about, go look at

0:03:57.320 --> 0:04:01.160
<v Speaker 1>their wins this year and other then beating Tampa Bay,

0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:04.480
<v Speaker 1>which was a great win for the Rams, it has

0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:07.160
<v Speaker 1>gone the other way against some of the better teams.

0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:10.760
<v Speaker 1>When they lost to the Titans at home with no

0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Derreck Henry, that was an eye opener and Stafford had

0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:18.280
<v Speaker 1>two picks in that game. He's had four picks in

0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:21.600
<v Speaker 1>the last two games and five turnovers, and that has

0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:26.080
<v Speaker 1>come against the better competition. They've lost three of the

0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:30.279
<v Speaker 1>four games when it comes to the best, better competition,

0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.800
<v Speaker 1>the better teams in the NFL. They lost to Arizona

0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:35.360
<v Speaker 1>at home, so you start to look at these games.

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:38.080
<v Speaker 1>They went up to San Francisco or on back to

0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:42.240
<v Speaker 1>back passes he had the interceptions turned the game around,

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.160
<v Speaker 1>and that's what's scary. That's why I think this is

0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:47.719
<v Speaker 1>a big test to see them go on the road

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 1>the Rams. Remember the Rams lost to the Packers last

0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:55.560
<v Speaker 1>year on the road in the playoffs. So if Matthew

0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Stafford has another bad game on the road against the

0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:03.120
<v Speaker 1>good team, you gotta start to wonder and worry if

0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:05.800
<v Speaker 1>this guy can get it. This is a guy, you're right,

0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 1>Jason the number one overall pick who's oo and three

0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs and has never won a division And

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.640
<v Speaker 1>you start to wonder, can he get it done? Is

0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:19.880
<v Speaker 1>he really the upgrade people when they trade him from

0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:25.120
<v Speaker 1>Matthew Stafford. Jared Goff got to the Super Bowl. Yes,

0:05:25.279 --> 0:05:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Jared Goff is an all Pro. Yes, yes, Matthew Stafford

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:31.800
<v Speaker 1>hasn't been to a Super Bowl. Go look at Jared

0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:36.039
<v Speaker 1>Goff's numbers those years and the numbers between the Super

0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Bowl year and now. They ain't no big upgrade over

0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Matthews from Matthew Stafford. Jared Goff was doing the same

0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 1>exact thing. So my point is the only difference is

0:05:48.000 --> 0:05:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Jared Goff won some big games in big spots and

0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Matthew hasn't done that yet. That doesn't mean he can't

0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:58.000
<v Speaker 1>do it, but this crowning of him and calling him

0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:02.280
<v Speaker 1>the Messiah has been ridiculous. Okay, for the love of

0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Tred differ, Jared Goff did not get to a Super Bowl.

0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:09.159
<v Speaker 1>Jared Goff has never won a game in his career

0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:12.360
<v Speaker 1>without McVeigh, never, Rob look it up. It's the most

0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:15.840
<v Speaker 1>amazing stat ever. Jared Goff has is zero wins in

0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:19.480
<v Speaker 1>his NFL career without McVeigh, zero before McVeagh got there,

0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:27.040
<v Speaker 1>and zero's Jared goffoff. Matt Stafford is on trash teams

0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:30.440
<v Speaker 1>in Detroit, that dumpster fire of friends and three in

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs. That means that the playoff games, yes or no,

0:06:36.560 --> 0:06:39.040
<v Speaker 1>what's he favored? Was he favored in? It doesn't matter.

0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 1>He was the first overall pick. It doesn't matter. Oh

0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:46.359
<v Speaker 1>my god, that's why they have upsets in sports. Jason

0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:49.640
<v Speaker 1>stopped giving people excuse time out. If you don't, wait

0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:51.560
<v Speaker 1>a minute, Okay, go ahead, good, wait a minute. If

0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:54.440
<v Speaker 1>if he if he would have won a game, even

0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:58.080
<v Speaker 1>that Cowboys playoff game. That go back that the Lions

0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:01.200
<v Speaker 1>had a number five defense that year in twenty fourteen

0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:06.240
<v Speaker 1>the road. Okay, that doesn't matter. They had Matthew Stafford

0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:08.560
<v Speaker 1>got the ball back with two minutes to go, two

0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:11.680
<v Speaker 1>and a half minutes to go and two timeouts, would

0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.080
<v Speaker 1>a chance to watch the Lions down the field and

0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:17.080
<v Speaker 1>beat the Cowboys in Dallas. And you know what happened.

0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:20.160
<v Speaker 1>It was four and out. Don't give me an excuse.

0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:22.880
<v Speaker 1>So they had another chance to win the division over

0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.320
<v Speaker 1>the Green Bay Packers, and in the last week of

0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:28.400
<v Speaker 1>the season, and you know what, they lost. I'm not

0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:31.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna don't act like he doesn't. He didn't have any chances. Okay,

0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:33.680
<v Speaker 1>you want to bag on Stafford this year, they haven't

0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:35.840
<v Speaker 1>beaten anybody. Give me a team in the NFL that

0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:37.520
<v Speaker 1>you think is good, right now, give me one team.

0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Go ahead, and green Bay Packer. Here's the Green Bay Packers.

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:41.480
<v Speaker 1>These are the teams that they have beat this year

0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 1>the eight and three Packers. They beat the Lions, who

0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:47.560
<v Speaker 1>are winless. They beat the Niners in week three? Um

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:49.560
<v Speaker 1>or the Niners good? I don't know. I don't think

0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 1>they were good. And what are you talking about? They

0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:53.400
<v Speaker 1>just beat the Rams and you want to talk about

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Hold on? They're five team? How are they good? We

0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:01.360
<v Speaker 1>three repeating Tampa? And you went three credit for waiting

0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:04.640
<v Speaker 1>the Niners. What in week three when they came back

0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:07.720
<v Speaker 1>on the road with thirty seven seconds left to win

0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:10.960
<v Speaker 1>the game. What were the forty Niners record in week three?

0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Come on, jameson, then you gotta give Stafford the credit

0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.080
<v Speaker 1>for the win over Tampa. Okay in week three? So

0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:18.080
<v Speaker 1>let's keep going for the Packers. Great wins. They beat

0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:20.800
<v Speaker 1>the Steelers, who are garbage. They beat the Bengals not good.

0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:24.520
<v Speaker 1>They beat the Bears, stink, Washington stinks. Arizona. I'll give

0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:27.000
<v Speaker 1>you that. Their other win was against Seattle, which is

0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:29.240
<v Speaker 1>three and seven. So who if the Packers beat like

0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.679
<v Speaker 1>rob this whole argument like who has seven? And oh

0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:37.240
<v Speaker 1>Arizona gave you that. That's a good all right, But

0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:40.120
<v Speaker 1>that's a rolling good win against a really good team

0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:42.679
<v Speaker 1>that would win Okay, what about all have one good win?

0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Stop they beat the Arizona. They beat them. That's impressive.

0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:47.439
<v Speaker 1>The Arizona, by the way, is like the fifth best

0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:50.199
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl odds despite being the number one seed in

0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:53.200
<v Speaker 1>the NA in the NFC, you can't give me other

0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:57.679
<v Speaker 1>than Tampa Bay early on, Great Great Green Bay has

0:08:57.800 --> 0:09:00.199
<v Speaker 1>one more wins than Matt Stafford in the rain. That's

0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:05.199
<v Speaker 1>Stafford's trending down. Bad games in a row. Yes, he's

0:09:05.240 --> 0:09:07.480
<v Speaker 1>on a bum wheel. I get that. I'm not making

0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:11.880
<v Speaker 1>excuses for Stafford. This is the reality quarterback win. Nobody

0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:15.480
<v Speaker 1>wins a game if you're a quarterback. Okay, Aaron Rodgers

0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:19.040
<v Speaker 1>and Tom Brady are goats status. They are the only

0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:22.280
<v Speaker 1>two who you can say they won the game. You

0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:25.120
<v Speaker 1>can't pin it all on Matt Stafford his time at Detroit.

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:27.800
<v Speaker 1>Robert's unfair. You know for a fact, those times I've

0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:32.320
<v Speaker 1>watched him, I watched Carbad, I covered Matthew Stafford differences.

0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:37.320
<v Speaker 1>Your view of him is watching highlights view of him

0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:41.280
<v Speaker 1>and the stats. Matt Stafford has always been a top

0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:45.040
<v Speaker 1>twelve quarterback at the end of the number I watched stats.

0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:48.640
<v Speaker 1>You watch the lights, and you've watched numbers and their

0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:52.880
<v Speaker 1>fake numbers. That's why his nickname was is stat Padford

0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:56.520
<v Speaker 1>in Detroit. Ask anybody from Detroit who actually watched the

0:09:56.640 --> 0:10:00.120
<v Speaker 1>games and watched what what kind of that they ever

0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:03.600
<v Speaker 1>beat anybody? And that's the issue when it comes with Stafford.

0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.480
<v Speaker 1>All I'm saying Jason is this year he's got to

0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:08.719
<v Speaker 1>prove that. Okay, and he if they don't get to

0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:10.800
<v Speaker 1>the super Bowl, will have been a flop or fail

0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 1>for around. I'm asking I predict that they would get

0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.439
<v Speaker 1>to the super Bowl. I don't think they don't get there. Rob.

0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:20.560
<v Speaker 1>It's not a failure from Matt Stafford. Trust the numbers.

0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:25.560
<v Speaker 1>It is they just gave Football Outsiders is universally accepted

0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:27.880
<v Speaker 1>as the most important stats in the league. They break

0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:30.600
<v Speaker 1>down every play. They don't give you the counting stats

0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:34.040
<v Speaker 1>of touchdowns interceptions. Okay, The top passers in the league

0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:37.360
<v Speaker 1>this year number one Tom Brady almost across the board.

0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:40.319
<v Speaker 1>Number two Kirk Cousins, who has the best touchdown to

0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:42.880
<v Speaker 1>interception ratio. I know you love that set. The number

0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:46.320
<v Speaker 1>three quarterback according to Football Outsiders in almost every metric

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:50.360
<v Speaker 1>they have is Matt Stafford, ahead of the beloved Aaron Rodgers.

0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Ahead of the beloved Dak Prescott, ahead of Kyler Murray.

0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:59.839
<v Speaker 1>Justin her heat bad teams. The numbers against the good

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:03.800
<v Speaker 1>teams are not good, Jason. When you get to the playoffs,

0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:07.560
<v Speaker 1>are you playing Atlanta and the all and the Giants

0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:10.000
<v Speaker 1>and the Jets. No, you guess who you're playing. You're

0:11:10.040 --> 0:11:13.080
<v Speaker 1>playing the best of the best. Give me his numbers

0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.880
<v Speaker 1>in the four best teams that they've played against, and

0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:19.079
<v Speaker 1>they're not good. Those are the games you gotta worry

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.000
<v Speaker 1>about if you're the Rams, not the other games. Tampa

0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:23.960
<v Speaker 1>is the best team they played. We had We had

0:11:24.000 --> 0:11:26.280
<v Speaker 1>a guest on the first hour who said Tampa or

0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:27.800
<v Speaker 1>Green Bay is one of the best teams in the league.

0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Here's what Stafford did against the mighty Tampa Bay Bucks,

0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:34.240
<v Speaker 1>the defending Super Bowl champs. That was Week three, stop by,

0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:36.280
<v Speaker 1>So we're tossing out week three when he was twenty

0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:38.560
<v Speaker 1>seven or thirty eight for three hundred forty three yards.

0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Is here trending up or downs? Trending anywhere he's He's

0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:46.480
<v Speaker 1>got five turnovers in the last two games. He did

0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:49.280
<v Speaker 1>not have two good games against the Titans, Yes, and

0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:52.240
<v Speaker 1>against the Niners, no doubt about that. Is anybody perfect?

0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:55.199
<v Speaker 1>Has anybody been flawless throughout It's not about being flawless,

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:58.360
<v Speaker 1>it's about being realistic. And you know that if it

0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:01.400
<v Speaker 1>was reverse and Stafford had had that game against Tampa

0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:04.079
<v Speaker 1>last week, people would be talking about him and and

0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:08.719
<v Speaker 1>a MVP category. Let's not see the number things he's

0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:12.959
<v Speaker 1>trending down and because game Okay, I'm gonna ask you

0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:16.400
<v Speaker 1>this one question, So Matt, Matt, Matt Jones must if

0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:19.640
<v Speaker 1>he plays trending up right, he play against Green Bay

0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:21.920
<v Speaker 1>and throws two picks, then you can then you can

0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.160
<v Speaker 1>worry but the real but rob both things whether we

0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:26.800
<v Speaker 1>would agree both things can be true? Matt Stafford has

0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:30.800
<v Speaker 1>had a phenomenal, outstanding, amazing season where all his numbers

0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:33.640
<v Speaker 1>are great, but yes, he has had two subpar games

0:12:33.679 --> 0:12:36.440
<v Speaker 1>in a row with pick sixes that really badly hurt

0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the LA rams. Are both those things true? I just

0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:46.040
<v Speaker 1>yes or no, those things true. He's had a great

0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:49.679
<v Speaker 1>season and he's had two struggling games. But all My

0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:54.319
<v Speaker 1>only issue is his bug a boo coming into this

0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:57.319
<v Speaker 1>year was that he never beat the good teams and

0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:01.280
<v Speaker 1>and you can't say uh through to Calvin Johnson was

0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:04.640
<v Speaker 1>a first ballot Hall of Famers. Despite the Lions not

0:13:04.720 --> 0:13:08.079
<v Speaker 1>winning anything. People looked at his numbers and took them, right.

0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:11.079
<v Speaker 1>They took him for face value, right. It didn't stop

0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Calvin Johnson, all right. So you can't use that the

0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:18.360
<v Speaker 1>Lions as an excuse, or or that Matthew Stafford hasn't

0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:22.280
<v Speaker 1>beaten the good teams. He's he's on a great team now.

0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:25.920
<v Speaker 1>And it's scary if you're a Rams fan that the

0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:29.240
<v Speaker 1>teams that they've lost to that he doesn't beat those teams,

0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:32.760
<v Speaker 1>except he beat Tampa Bay earlier in the season. As

0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:35.839
<v Speaker 1>the year has gone on, it's gotten worse. And I'm

0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:38.160
<v Speaker 1>telling you, if he has a bad Dan Green Bay,

0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I'll be the first one the Saldy alarm for the

0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Rams because they've given the way the future, and if

0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:47.120
<v Speaker 1>they don't get to a super Bowl and win it,

0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:51.000
<v Speaker 1>it will be a failure. And what if matt Stafford

0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:53.240
<v Speaker 1>delivers against the Packers and has a good game, then

0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:56.880
<v Speaker 1>what will you be proclaiming? Well, then that that would

0:13:56.920 --> 0:14:00.360
<v Speaker 1>definitely settle and make people feel better about where he

0:14:00.480 --> 0:14:03.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anybody feels bad about two games. Rob.

0:14:03.600 --> 0:14:05.880
<v Speaker 1>We're looking at an NFL season where the Cowboys have

0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:08.319
<v Speaker 1>lost three of four. The Kansas City Chiefs for a

0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:11.920
<v Speaker 1>month couldn't stop a nosebleed. They were terrible. Like, no

0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:15.720
<v Speaker 1>team has been consistent. The only consistent in this league

0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.079
<v Speaker 1>this year has been everybody's been up and down. Buffalo

0:14:18.160 --> 0:14:20.280
<v Speaker 1>lost two of three. They lost to Jacksonville. Do you

0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:22.400
<v Speaker 1>want to say Josh Allen is trash and the Bills

0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:26.160
<v Speaker 1>are garbage? Like you can't overreact to a couple of

0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:29.480
<v Speaker 1>games for Matt Stafford that have been bad. I mean no,

0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:33.040
<v Speaker 1>given his history, you can over you can overreact. But

0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:37.720
<v Speaker 1>that's a different coach and a different franchise. But they

0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:40.280
<v Speaker 1>thought when he came here it was going to be

0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:43.120
<v Speaker 1>he will be the Messiah the second Oh you know,

0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:45.840
<v Speaker 1>do you know how many you know how many people

0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:49.160
<v Speaker 1>NFL guys had him winning the MVP. I have money

0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:51.240
<v Speaker 1>on Matt Stafford to win the MVP and the Rams

0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:53.360
<v Speaker 1>to win the Super Bowl. Yeah, okay, I get that.

0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:56.080
<v Speaker 1>That's money that your kids won't have to be spent

0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:59.960
<v Speaker 1>for Christian also true. And guess what if if Matt's

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Stafford gets the rail I think I got him at

0:15:01.440 --> 0:15:03.960
<v Speaker 1>plus nine hundred to win the Super Bowl. Guess what then?

0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:06.880
<v Speaker 1>My kids will take a first class trip to Hawaii. Okay,

0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:10.880
<v Speaker 1>as soon as the football season's over. If the ramsay

0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.440
<v Speaker 1>they're seven and three and you want to act like

0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.160
<v Speaker 1>they're they're they're in deep trouble. And many've lost two

0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:19.760
<v Speaker 1>in a row to two good teams. Don't you get

0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:23.880
<v Speaker 1>that there was seven and one? Why guy have to

0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:29.840
<v Speaker 1>be falling over two losses? Why? Why can't it just

0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:32.320
<v Speaker 1>be man Stafford? He had two bad games, you know what,

0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:35.160
<v Speaker 1>the other seven games where he was great. I didn't

0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:37.480
<v Speaker 1>overreact to those, so I'm not gonna overreact to two.

0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 1>So anyways, have you seen what's going on with the

0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:42.600
<v Speaker 1>line movement in Green Bay? This week? The Packers opened

0:15:42.640 --> 0:15:44.600
<v Speaker 1>his favorites at home against the Rams, and now the

0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:46.480
<v Speaker 1>Rams are favored, and a lot of it has to

0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 1>do with it. I can't wait for the excuses. Well,

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:51.360
<v Speaker 1>the Packers didn't have their two best offensive lineman and

0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers's toe and no JayR Alexander, so it's just weird, Robert.

0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:58.600
<v Speaker 1>I can already know. I already know the excuses you're

0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:01.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna make when the Rams and Stafford win that I don't.

0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:04.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't make excuses. I don't make excuses. I've seen

0:16:05.360 --> 0:16:07.880
<v Speaker 1>I've already seen the Packers win games, and even the

0:16:08.000 --> 0:16:10.840
<v Speaker 1>game that they lost without their four best defensive players

0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:14.520
<v Speaker 1>in Minnesota, Aaron Rodgers gave them a chance if it

0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:18.720
<v Speaker 1>wasn't for a drop of a of an of an interception. Agree, right,

0:16:19.000 --> 0:16:21.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean they would have won that game, had almost

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:25.080
<v Speaker 1>four hundred yards and four touchdowns in a game where

0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:27.920
<v Speaker 1>they shouldn't even been able to compete with Aaron Rodgers,

0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.440
<v Speaker 1>the best, second greatest quarterback in the history of So

0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to Aaron Rodgers is historically great. The

0:16:35.760 --> 0:16:39.040
<v Speaker 1>guy is a legend. Okay, He's gonna win games by himself.

0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:40.680
<v Speaker 1>There's two guys in the league who can do that,

0:16:41.280 --> 0:16:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers. I'm Matt Stafford is not

0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:47.520
<v Speaker 1>in that class. Nobody's in that class unless I'm missing

0:16:47.560 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 1>somebody who's up there with them. Nobody. Well, you wanna

0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:53.160
<v Speaker 1>put Jalen Hurts in there because he's had a couple

0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:55.200
<v Speaker 1>of good games. Stop you gonna put Derek Carr in

0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:57.880
<v Speaker 1>there because he was great in Dallas. Like I just,

0:16:58.080 --> 0:16:59.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what we're doing here. Who's the third

0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:02.160
<v Speaker 1>best quarterback in the NFL? This season, rob who you

0:17:02.240 --> 0:17:04.560
<v Speaker 1>got if we if we want to say Rogers and

0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Brady or one and two in whatever order. Kyler Murray

0:17:07.359 --> 0:17:09.840
<v Speaker 1>before he got get the hell out of here. Boy

0:17:10.000 --> 0:17:12.960
<v Speaker 1>just came in and beat San fran and beat Seattle.

0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:16.639
<v Speaker 1>So if Kyler Murray really I said, before he got hurt. Yes,

0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:18.879
<v Speaker 1>they were playing at a at a great clip and

0:17:19.000 --> 0:17:21.200
<v Speaker 1>he had was beating a lot of good teams. The

0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:24.680
<v Speaker 1>Cardinals were on their way. Don't forget he beat Matt Stafford.

0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:26.879
<v Speaker 1>Go look at the numbers in that game. Where what

0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:30.280
<v Speaker 1>Kyler Murray came into LA and beat Stafford on his

0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:32.119
<v Speaker 1>home field. Go look at that game and tell me

0:17:32.359 --> 0:17:35.160
<v Speaker 1>who was better that day? Uh? Yeah, I had money

0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:37.359
<v Speaker 1>on Arizona that day. Kyler Murray was amazing. I like

0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:41.719
<v Speaker 1>Kyler Murray. I'm a big example. Know he had two

0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:44.280
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns that day. But that game's not on Matt Stafford.

0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:47.440
<v Speaker 1>The Arizona Cardinals scored thirty seven points because the Rams

0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:50.120
<v Speaker 1>defense got shredded, gave up four hundred and sixty five

0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:53.240
<v Speaker 1>yards one of the best in the league. No, no,

0:17:53.440 --> 0:17:56.120
<v Speaker 1>not the Rams. No there, The Rams are great because

0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Matt Stafford was awesome and an MVP candidate. Getting into

0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:02.199
<v Speaker 1>a seven and one star. Nobody's back in that Rams defense.

0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:30.320
<v Speaker 1>right now. His name is doctor David Chow x NFL

0:18:30.400 --> 0:18:33.760
<v Speaker 1>team doctor, sports medical Analyst. You can find him on

0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:38.760
<v Speaker 1>Twitter at Pro Football Doc doctor Chow Harry this morning. Welcome.

0:18:38.760 --> 0:18:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Shall I break up that fight there? No, don't, don't.

0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:43.359
<v Speaker 1>That's fun, That's just fun. Listen. We need you, We

0:18:43.480 --> 0:18:46.160
<v Speaker 1>need your assistance here because there are some real bad

0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:49.760
<v Speaker 1>NFL injuries. Let's start with Aaron Rodgers and his I

0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:52.520
<v Speaker 1>don't know covid toe, his fractured toe. He's holding his

0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.680
<v Speaker 1>toe up at press conferences. Can you help us make sense,

0:18:55.800 --> 0:18:58.359
<v Speaker 1>doctor Chow, of what's going on with Aaron Rodgers too.

0:18:59.760 --> 0:19:02.680
<v Speaker 1>It's not COVID toe. He's referred to COVID toe as it.

0:19:02.800 --> 0:19:05.440
<v Speaker 1>He got it when he was in COVID quarantine because

0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:07.000
<v Speaker 1>he had to work out at his home and he

0:19:07.160 --> 0:19:10.800
<v Speaker 1>kicked a bag, you know, a punching bag or something,

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.920
<v Speaker 1>and he broke his fifth pinky toe. It's a fractured toe.

0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:17.359
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers even made he didn't even know what COVID

0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:20.200
<v Speaker 1>toe was. He was just making a joke on Pat McAfee,

0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:22.560
<v Speaker 1>and then we had all these COVID toe articles that

0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:26.000
<v Speaker 1>people were calling me about COVID toe. Look, it's a

0:19:26.160 --> 0:19:29.639
<v Speaker 1>pinky finger, a pinky toe. It's on his left foot.

0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Yes it's gonna hurt, Yes he's gonna be limited in practice, etc.

0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:36.440
<v Speaker 1>But if it hurts that bad during the game, they're

0:19:36.480 --> 0:19:38.520
<v Speaker 1>just gonna numb it up and go. It's not that

0:19:38.640 --> 0:19:40.720
<v Speaker 1>big of a deal. If you look at him last game,

0:19:41.040 --> 0:19:43.760
<v Speaker 1>he played very well and Aaron Rodgers probably doesn't need

0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:47.679
<v Speaker 1>that much practice to play well. So I'm not worried

0:19:47.720 --> 0:19:50.879
<v Speaker 1>about this pinky toe injury at all. But the funny

0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:52.800
<v Speaker 1>thing is to compare it to a turf toe, not

0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:55.320
<v Speaker 1>even close. Right. Then, maybe there's a fracture here, but

0:19:55.720 --> 0:19:58.000
<v Speaker 1>the big toe is really what you need to play

0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:00.399
<v Speaker 1>with him push off, That's what hobb to you, the

0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:04.280
<v Speaker 1>pinky toe will be an essentially non factor. I guess

0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:07.359
<v Speaker 1>if his left tackle, a new left tackle now steps

0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:09.119
<v Speaker 1>on in again like he did last year, it's going

0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:11.879
<v Speaker 1>to hurt him. But you know, it's pain. It's not

0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:15.640
<v Speaker 1>going to be anything significant in my opinion, Ay, Doc.

0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:19.400
<v Speaker 1>After the game last night, Dallas Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy

0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:23.000
<v Speaker 1>said it was pretty obvious that Zekiel Elliot's knee was

0:20:23.080 --> 0:20:26.040
<v Speaker 1>bothering him. What is the issue that Zeke is working

0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:29.679
<v Speaker 1>through and how concerned should the Cowboys be moving forward

0:20:29.760 --> 0:20:33.520
<v Speaker 1>with this knee? Well, I think, you know, having Tony

0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Pollard the lessons the concern, but he's going to play through.

0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:39.639
<v Speaker 1>Look at week twelve, now, eighty five percent is probably

0:20:39.680 --> 0:20:42.119
<v Speaker 1>a good week for any player in the NFL. Yes,

0:20:42.200 --> 0:20:45.119
<v Speaker 1>it's been lingering for a little bit, a nique contusion injury.

0:20:45.200 --> 0:20:48.000
<v Speaker 1>It's a main matter of pain and swelling. No, he's

0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 1>not one hundred percent, but I think he's going to

0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:54.000
<v Speaker 1>continue to play through. I don't think he's gonna miss

0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:58.199
<v Speaker 1>any games, Doctor Chow. I want to quickly look at

0:20:58.240 --> 0:21:00.359
<v Speaker 1>one of my favorite teams in the NFL, the New

0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:02.480
<v Speaker 1>York Jets. I know nobody cares. But I got to

0:21:02.520 --> 0:21:04.320
<v Speaker 1>ask you, this is Zach Wilson stuff. A lot of

0:21:04.359 --> 0:21:05.920
<v Speaker 1>the New York media, I feel like they're trying to

0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:09.800
<v Speaker 1>sell newspapers, pushing Mike White and then Joe Flacco and

0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:13.560
<v Speaker 1>all this controversy. There's nothing there, right. Zach Wilson appears

0:21:13.600 --> 0:21:16.040
<v Speaker 1>to be one hundred percent for the Jets coming back

0:21:16.080 --> 0:21:18.280
<v Speaker 1>this week in kind of a big spot. You don't

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:21.040
<v Speaker 1>want to get embarrassed again. They've had a bad streak here,

0:21:21.320 --> 0:21:24.000
<v Speaker 1>you're playing the Houston Texans. Do you from everything you

0:21:24.080 --> 0:21:26.159
<v Speaker 1>can glean, is Zach Wilson one hundred percent to go

0:21:26.280 --> 0:21:29.639
<v Speaker 1>for the Jets? Close to one hundred percent. He's certainly

0:21:29.720 --> 0:21:31.960
<v Speaker 1>good enough to play. I think he was good enough

0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:34.159
<v Speaker 1>to play a week or two weeks ago when it

0:21:34.280 --> 0:21:37.600
<v Speaker 1>first happened in game. We do this video analysis and

0:21:37.840 --> 0:21:40.240
<v Speaker 1>said he had a PCL and it's a two week,

0:21:40.359 --> 0:21:42.760
<v Speaker 1>two to four week injury, but we lean towards the

0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:46.440
<v Speaker 1>four weeks or more because he's a young quarterback. He's

0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:48.600
<v Speaker 1>not Aaron Rodgers who can not practice a week can

0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:51.280
<v Speaker 1>come in and go lights out. He's got to practice

0:21:51.320 --> 0:21:53.320
<v Speaker 1>and he's got to be closer one hundred percent especially

0:21:53.680 --> 0:21:56.440
<v Speaker 1>with that Jets team. Now he's finally close to that,

0:21:56.640 --> 0:21:59.280
<v Speaker 1>but really not a ton of other choice with you know,

0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:02.119
<v Speaker 1>Flacco out, COVID and what have you. But you know,

0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:04.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that Zach's one hundred percent, but I

0:22:04.160 --> 0:22:06.359
<v Speaker 1>put him in the nineties, so I think he should

0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:09.480
<v Speaker 1>be good to go, all right. Justin Fields didn't play

0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:12.399
<v Speaker 1>yesterday in the game against the Lions for the Bears.

0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:16.760
<v Speaker 1>If coach Matt Naggie decides that he's going a bench

0:22:17.920 --> 0:22:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Andy Dalton, should we expect to see Fields returned to

0:22:21.440 --> 0:22:25.680
<v Speaker 1>the field next next week? How about this? For the

0:22:25.760 --> 0:22:30.440
<v Speaker 1>irony of all ironies. Justin Field's most numberable moment was

0:22:30.520 --> 0:22:33.080
<v Speaker 1>in the Sugar Bowl with Ohio State when he got

0:22:33.280 --> 0:22:36.720
<v Speaker 1>rocked and broke Ribbs, went into the medical tent, took

0:22:36.760 --> 0:22:39.719
<v Speaker 1>an injection, came back and with Superman hero and led

0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Ohio State to victory. Here he left the game and

0:22:44.040 --> 0:22:46.679
<v Speaker 1>some of it maybe coaching decision slash we want him

0:22:46.720 --> 0:22:48.960
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent and preserved him for the future. He

0:22:49.040 --> 0:22:51.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't even take a big shot. Now there's some non

0:22:51.680 --> 0:22:55.520
<v Speaker 1>displaced Maybe fractures on Mr. Rib Blocks could take care

0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:58.960
<v Speaker 1>of that. This Andy Dalton start might have been Matt

0:22:59.040 --> 0:23:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Naggie preference and or short week syndrome with the Chicago Bears.

0:23:03.800 --> 0:23:06.680
<v Speaker 1>So I think Fields can be an option for the

0:23:06.800 --> 0:23:11.200
<v Speaker 1>following week if Matt Naggie wants to use him, especially

0:23:11.280 --> 0:23:13.479
<v Speaker 1>since Naggie needed to win a game, right, I mean,

0:23:13.960 --> 0:23:17.280
<v Speaker 1>he probably was trying to save his job because of

0:23:17.359 --> 0:23:20.439
<v Speaker 1>all the reports out there, Doctor Chow, let me just uh,

0:23:20.760 --> 0:23:24.400
<v Speaker 1>Matt Stafford is a very contentious name on this show.

0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Rob obviously did not like him. I need to ask why, why?

0:23:28.400 --> 0:23:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Because I don't think somebody's good. You think I don't

0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:35.280
<v Speaker 1>like personal bag on him. He's he's had two awful

0:23:35.320 --> 0:23:37.520
<v Speaker 1>games in a row. But Doctor Chow, has he been healthy.

0:23:38.119 --> 0:23:41.359
<v Speaker 1>He's missed some practice. I believe he's not one hundred percent.

0:23:41.440 --> 0:23:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Now they are coming off the bye week. This is

0:23:43.359 --> 0:23:45.359
<v Speaker 1>the pressure filled week for Matt Stafford. What do you

0:23:45.440 --> 0:23:48.560
<v Speaker 1>have on his injury? Well, Matt Stafford is as tough

0:23:48.560 --> 0:23:50.600
<v Speaker 1>as they come. He's never really come out of games.

0:23:50.880 --> 0:23:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Remember the back fracture that he played yet quote no

0:23:53.320 --> 0:23:55.760
<v Speaker 1>one knew about the you know, the thumb injuries, the

0:23:55.880 --> 0:23:58.680
<v Speaker 1>hand stuff. He's always played through stuff and he's tough

0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:02.080
<v Speaker 1>as he come. But before Rams fans start saying, Matt

0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:04.280
<v Speaker 1>Stafford isn't the answer. Do you want to go back

0:24:04.320 --> 0:24:07.719
<v Speaker 1>to Jared Goff? Remember that, you mean the guy who

0:24:07.760 --> 0:24:09.960
<v Speaker 1>took you to the super Bowl and had the fifth

0:24:10.080 --> 0:24:13.040
<v Speaker 1>greatest offense in the history of the NFL. Doc, I

0:24:13.200 --> 0:24:17.560
<v Speaker 1>have to respectfully push back on that that you're you're, you're, you're,

0:24:17.640 --> 0:24:21.000
<v Speaker 1>you're propping up Matthew Stafford, who's never won a playoff game,

0:24:21.480 --> 0:24:24.360
<v Speaker 1>never won a division title, and you're taking a shot

0:24:24.440 --> 0:24:27.800
<v Speaker 1>at Jared Goff who got to the Super Bowl. Come on, Doc, No,

0:24:28.040 --> 0:24:29.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm not taking a shot at Jared Goff at all.

0:24:29.760 --> 0:24:31.879
<v Speaker 1>I just or supporting Matt Stafford. I'm just giving you

0:24:32.000 --> 0:24:35.240
<v Speaker 1>the comparison. You gotta remember, in the playoffs last season,

0:24:36.200 --> 0:24:39.280
<v Speaker 1>Jared Goff had a thumb issue where he could play

0:24:39.440 --> 0:24:43.240
<v Speaker 1>and start, and the Rams the Bells chose to start

0:24:43.400 --> 0:24:47.240
<v Speaker 1>John Wolford in that game. Now, John Woolford got injured

0:24:47.240 --> 0:24:49.720
<v Speaker 1>in the first quarter at bet and Jared Goff came

0:24:49.760 --> 0:24:51.960
<v Speaker 1>in played three and a half quarters. But the reason

0:24:52.040 --> 0:24:54.400
<v Speaker 1>why we knew he was healthy to play is Blake

0:24:54.520 --> 0:24:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Bortles was not listed as the third quarterback that day.

0:24:58.240 --> 0:25:00.320
<v Speaker 1>No team goes into a game with one and a

0:25:00.359 --> 0:25:03.480
<v Speaker 1>half healthy quarterbacks. That meant to me they knew Jared

0:25:03.520 --> 0:25:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Goff was healthy enough to play, yet they started John

0:25:06.280 --> 0:25:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Woolford and then obviously they traded John Jared Goff. So

0:25:10.680 --> 0:25:12.880
<v Speaker 1>the Rams told you what they think of Jared Goff,

0:25:13.000 --> 0:25:15.480
<v Speaker 1>not me. Yeah, they don't buy him now. But on

0:25:15.640 --> 0:25:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Stafford though, you know, I know he's a tough guy.

0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:22.000
<v Speaker 1>This ankle injury, foot I'm not exactly sure how bad

0:25:22.040 --> 0:25:23.720
<v Speaker 1>it is, but where are you on that? Doc? It's

0:25:23.760 --> 0:25:27.440
<v Speaker 1>only bad when he loses. Otherwise he's great, right, Like

0:25:27.600 --> 0:25:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I said, eighty five percent is a good week. He's

0:25:29.520 --> 0:25:32.359
<v Speaker 1>at least eighty five percent. His health should not be

0:25:32.480 --> 0:25:35.959
<v Speaker 1>a major concern in terms of Matthew Stafford. All right,

0:25:36.200 --> 0:25:38.920
<v Speaker 1>let's I'm want to ask you Saints fans with question

0:25:38.960 --> 0:25:42.080
<v Speaker 1>of how Taysom Hill was healthy enough to be active

0:25:42.200 --> 0:25:44.879
<v Speaker 1>last night but not healthy enough to play over Trevor

0:25:45.040 --> 0:25:48.639
<v Speaker 1>Simeon tell us about Hill's health right now and what

0:25:48.760 --> 0:25:51.800
<v Speaker 1>it could mean for the Saints quarterback situation moving forward.

0:25:52.800 --> 0:25:55.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's an interesting issue there. They just find

0:25:55.800 --> 0:25:58.320
<v Speaker 1>him with a big contract and he couldn't play quarterback,

0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:00.640
<v Speaker 1>but what he could do fullback and height end duty.

0:26:00.760 --> 0:26:04.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean makes sense, items it seems like it should

0:26:04.119 --> 0:26:06.560
<v Speaker 1>be the opposite. There's more to the story there. I

0:26:06.640 --> 0:26:08.639
<v Speaker 1>don't know what it is right now, but you know

0:26:08.840 --> 0:26:12.440
<v Speaker 1>that's a that's sort of the big question mark. But

0:26:13.119 --> 0:26:15.760
<v Speaker 1>when things don't make sense to us in the outside world,

0:26:16.080 --> 0:26:18.600
<v Speaker 1>they do from the inside. Will eventually find out, as

0:26:18.640 --> 0:26:20.879
<v Speaker 1>you guys know, but that doesn't make sense right now.

0:26:21.680 --> 0:26:24.520
<v Speaker 1>I've got one last go ahead. Yeah, yeah, I watched

0:26:24.560 --> 0:26:27.399
<v Speaker 1>that Buffalo Bills game last night and they kind of

0:26:27.480 --> 0:26:30.960
<v Speaker 1>glossed over the Tredavious White injury. It looked like a

0:26:31.160 --> 0:26:34.600
<v Speaker 1>non contact His knee kind of had this weird buckle.

0:26:34.680 --> 0:26:36.720
<v Speaker 1>He was on the ground. You could tell from the

0:26:36.800 --> 0:26:39.080
<v Speaker 1>look on his face that it might have been serious.

0:26:39.119 --> 0:26:41.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you have anything on the Tredavious White injury, because

0:26:41.520 --> 0:26:43.119
<v Speaker 1>you know he's an All Pro That feels like it

0:26:43.160 --> 0:26:46.679
<v Speaker 1>could have Super Bowl ramifications for the Bills, No question.

0:26:46.840 --> 0:26:49.439
<v Speaker 1>At Pro Football dot dot com end game. We posted

0:26:49.480 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 1>on my Twitter timeline and look, it's just video analysis.

0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:55.119
<v Speaker 1>And I studied video for seventeen years while I was

0:26:55.160 --> 0:26:57.440
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL of injuries when I knew what the

0:26:57.520 --> 0:27:00.280
<v Speaker 1>injury was. But in this case, it's going to be

0:27:00.480 --> 0:27:04.080
<v Speaker 1>unfortunately in ACL, tare Ato and mcl and he's going

0:27:04.119 --> 0:27:06.520
<v Speaker 1>to be out for the season. Now, remember this is

0:27:06.760 --> 0:27:11.280
<v Speaker 1>video analysis insider now is not inside information. The Bills

0:27:11.280 --> 0:27:15.159
<v Speaker 1>have said nothing. Sean John McDermott says, we'll tell you

0:27:15.280 --> 0:27:19.399
<v Speaker 1>on Tuesday, but count on their guy having to go

0:27:19.520 --> 0:27:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the way without Tredavious White, which is

0:27:22.080 --> 0:27:25.480
<v Speaker 1>a big deal. Hey, doc, real quick about thirty seconds

0:27:25.960 --> 0:27:29.480
<v Speaker 1>lasting a baseball. Fernando Tatis Junior was hurt three time

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:32.320
<v Speaker 1>with the shoulder last year. He decided not to have

0:27:32.520 --> 0:27:35.520
<v Speaker 1>the surgery. Do you think the Padres and Tattiss made

0:27:35.560 --> 0:27:38.040
<v Speaker 1>the right decision to go without surgery and just letting

0:27:38.080 --> 0:27:41.639
<v Speaker 1>it heal in the off season. I have not examined him.

0:27:41.720 --> 0:27:44.320
<v Speaker 1>He's my son's favorite player. I'm in San Diego. I'm

0:27:44.400 --> 0:27:47.280
<v Speaker 1>rooting for the guy. But he's a great player. He's

0:27:47.320 --> 0:27:49.280
<v Speaker 1>a great player. I think I think he's making the

0:27:49.359 --> 0:27:51.920
<v Speaker 1>wrong decision. I think the Padres want him to have

0:27:52.080 --> 0:27:54.320
<v Speaker 1>the surgery. Looked, if he would have played the twenty

0:27:54.359 --> 0:27:57.280
<v Speaker 1>five twenty nine extra games, he'd be the MVP. Look

0:27:57.320 --> 0:28:01.040
<v Speaker 1>he came out five times last season in five different ways.

0:28:01.359 --> 0:28:03.440
<v Speaker 1>It's only a matter of time before it comes out

0:28:03.480 --> 0:28:07.560
<v Speaker 1>again this next season. Rehab hasn't fixed it before. Rehab

0:28:07.680 --> 0:28:10.960
<v Speaker 1>isn't going to fix the label tear. He's an amazing athlete,

0:28:11.000 --> 0:28:14.160
<v Speaker 1>he's a matrix. He changed the swing season and still

0:28:14.240 --> 0:28:17.120
<v Speaker 1>hit forty two home months. But he can be even better.

0:28:17.240 --> 0:28:20.320
<v Speaker 1>I think he's making a silly mistake, but once again,

0:28:20.440 --> 0:28:22.879
<v Speaker 1>I haven't examined him. If I have the ability to

0:28:22.960 --> 0:28:25.640
<v Speaker 1>talk to him, I'd say, Fernando, you want to play shortstop.

0:28:25.680 --> 0:28:27.679
<v Speaker 1>You love shortstop. You don't want to be in the olculus, right,

0:28:27.760 --> 0:28:30.200
<v Speaker 1>get the surgery. Do you like that harness? No, you

0:28:30.240 --> 0:28:32.239
<v Speaker 1>want to take it off. Get the surgery. I mean

0:28:32.320 --> 0:28:35.320
<v Speaker 1>you're twenty three years old. I mean you're not indestructible,

0:28:35.359 --> 0:28:37.840
<v Speaker 1>but you know, twenty three year olds think sometimes think

0:28:37.880 --> 0:28:41.600
<v Speaker 1>they are. He is doctor David Chow x NFL Team Doctor,

0:28:41.680 --> 0:28:44.040
<v Speaker 1>sports medical Analyst. You can find him on Twitter at

<v Speaker 1>outstanding food filled Thanksgiving. The holiday season is in full swing.

0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:06.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about you, Rob, but I love me

0:30:07.040 --> 0:30:11.280
<v Speaker 1>some Christmas music and I do love how the bumper

0:30:11.400 --> 0:30:15.120
<v Speaker 1>music through from here until Christmas is gonna be Christmas music?

0:30:15.200 --> 0:30:16.840
<v Speaker 1>You got a favorite Christmas two and you want to

0:30:17.160 --> 0:30:19.440
<v Speaker 1>drop on the audience right now. You know what's so

0:30:19.640 --> 0:30:22.480
<v Speaker 1>funny is I'm big into Christmas music, and I do

0:30:22.680 --> 0:30:26.800
<v Speaker 1>listen to it on serious during the holiday season. But

0:30:27.120 --> 0:30:31.440
<v Speaker 1>my favorite Christmas song never actually mentions Christmas in it.

0:30:31.720 --> 0:30:35.680
<v Speaker 1>It's only played during the holiday season. Isn't that weird?

0:30:35.720 --> 0:30:40.400
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't mention anything, Baby It's cold outside. Oh that's

0:30:40.440 --> 0:30:46.160
<v Speaker 1>old school. That the Dean Martin Virgin, which that's a

0:30:46.320 --> 0:30:49.680
<v Speaker 1>great song, and it's only played because it's talking about

0:30:49.720 --> 0:30:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the elements of the winter, but it's doesn't mention the holiday.

0:30:53.760 --> 0:30:55.720
<v Speaker 1>It has nothing to do with Christmas. But it's a

0:30:55.880 --> 0:30:59.880
<v Speaker 1>great song. If you've never heard it, Baby It's Cold Outside.

0:31:00.000 --> 0:31:01.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure a lot of people have sang it. But

0:31:01.560 --> 0:31:04.440
<v Speaker 1>but the Dean Martin version, I love that solid no doubt,

0:31:04.760 --> 0:31:07.440
<v Speaker 1>the one that I've gotten into. Gosh, I listen, I

0:31:07.600 --> 0:31:09.280
<v Speaker 1>keep it one hundred with you, guys. I'm not I'm

0:31:09.280 --> 0:31:12.880
<v Speaker 1>not afraid to admit anything. As a national radio show

0:31:12.920 --> 0:31:15.560
<v Speaker 1>with massive reach, I do the same on my podcast.

0:31:15.600 --> 0:31:18.560
<v Speaker 1>It's why it's successful. I like the Kelly Clarkson song

0:31:18.960 --> 0:31:21.640
<v Speaker 1>the Kelly Clarkson Christmas song. My daughter did some figure

0:31:21.720 --> 0:31:23.960
<v Speaker 1>skating for like five minutes until my wife and I

0:31:24.080 --> 0:31:27.120
<v Speaker 1>were like, listen, this is too much work for us

0:31:27.360 --> 0:31:30.880
<v Speaker 1>driving to arenas it's freezing, and you're not gonna take it.

0:31:31.320 --> 0:31:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Let your daughter have our dream because with this. But Rob,

0:31:35.080 --> 0:31:36.320
<v Speaker 1>you know how it is. Well I don't know if

0:31:36.360 --> 0:31:37.840
<v Speaker 1>you know how it is with the kids, but like,

0:31:38.000 --> 0:31:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I can't drive two hours to a high skating performance

0:31:41.120 --> 0:31:43.160
<v Speaker 1>and then she performs for five minutes and we gotta

0:31:43.200 --> 0:31:45.040
<v Speaker 1>turn around and drive back. Like that's just that's not

0:31:45.200 --> 0:31:49.200
<v Speaker 1>my deal. Basketball. I'll drive you anywhere soccer, deal, gymnastics,

0:31:49.280 --> 0:31:51.960
<v Speaker 1>and we'll see um. But the Kelly Clarkson Christmas song?

0:31:52.040 --> 0:31:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Can you give me the name of it? Ryan? You

0:31:53.760 --> 0:31:55.400
<v Speaker 1>know the one? Don't even know the name of it.

0:31:55.840 --> 0:31:57.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm jowing a blank because I'm thinking about all my

0:31:58.000 --> 0:32:00.560
<v Speaker 1>my Deak Prescott debate that we're gonna have here. At

0:32:00.560 --> 0:32:02.320
<v Speaker 1>a second, Ryan, can you hook me up with the

0:32:02.400 --> 0:32:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Kelly Clarkson Underneath the Tree? Thank you? That song will

0:32:06.080 --> 0:32:08.040
<v Speaker 1>put a smile on your face. I will be jumping

0:32:08.080 --> 0:32:11.360
<v Speaker 1>and dancing in the car and now I'm embarrassed, all right, Rob, Parker.

0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:13.440
<v Speaker 1>I do, I do want you to look at real quick.

0:32:13.560 --> 0:32:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I sent you and Ryan, our producer a tech. Oh

0:32:16.760 --> 0:32:18.320
<v Speaker 1>did you see the picture? Can you just look at

0:32:18.360 --> 0:32:20.880
<v Speaker 1>it real quick before we gets better not being not

0:32:21.000 --> 0:32:24.840
<v Speaker 1>safe for work images. No, yes, that's funny when you

0:32:24.960 --> 0:32:27.520
<v Speaker 1>think it's Black Friday, but it's actually people returning their

0:32:27.560 --> 0:32:31.680
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys jerseys. It's a long line outside this building and

0:32:31.840 --> 0:32:35.400
<v Speaker 1>that's what it was funny after after the Cowboys lost

0:32:35.600 --> 0:32:37.200
<v Speaker 1>at home to the Right. I don't know. Listen, you

0:32:37.320 --> 0:32:40.000
<v Speaker 1>know me. I'm a gambler. Sports gambling is what I

0:32:40.080 --> 0:32:42.800
<v Speaker 1>do for Fox Sports. I love it's a gamblings. No't

0:32:42.800 --> 0:32:44.960
<v Speaker 1>different than the stock market. Right, this is a great

0:32:45.120 --> 0:32:48.280
<v Speaker 1>buy low opportunity on the Cowboys. Everybody's selling Dallas. Oh

0:32:48.320 --> 0:32:50.880
<v Speaker 1>they stink. Their defense is a joke. Anthony Brown is

0:32:50.880 --> 0:32:54.160
<v Speaker 1>the worst quarterback in the league for four flags. I

0:32:54.320 --> 0:32:57.240
<v Speaker 1>just want to remind people when you can get a

0:32:57.440 --> 0:33:01.000
<v Speaker 1>value stock such as the Dallas Cowboys off losing I

0:33:01.080 --> 0:33:04.920
<v Speaker 1>think three or four, you gotta grab it. Okay, they

0:33:05.040 --> 0:33:08.280
<v Speaker 1>did not have Randy Gregory, they did not have DeMarcus Lawrence,

0:33:08.320 --> 0:33:10.760
<v Speaker 1>their best two pass rushers. Derek Carr was wearing a

0:33:10.840 --> 0:33:14.640
<v Speaker 1>tuxedo in the pocket. The cornerbacks will be better once

0:33:14.720 --> 0:33:17.400
<v Speaker 1>you get a pass rush, and when those guys come

0:33:17.440 --> 0:33:20.920
<v Speaker 1>back and the receiver Ceedee Lamb comes back Amari Cooper

0:33:21.320 --> 0:33:23.760
<v Speaker 1>hopefully he got the vacs, maybe even he got the booster.

0:33:24.720 --> 0:33:26.440
<v Speaker 1>I think the Cowboys are gonna be fine, Rob. I

0:33:26.520 --> 0:33:28.240
<v Speaker 1>still think this is one of the top three teams

0:33:28.280 --> 0:33:31.240
<v Speaker 1>in the NFC. I'm not selling their stock. After a

0:33:31.320 --> 0:33:33.160
<v Speaker 1>home loss to the Raiders, which was a bad loss.

0:33:35.360 --> 0:33:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't even understand, given their history, given the coach

0:33:39.360 --> 0:33:43.320
<v Speaker 1>that they have given, the undisciplined, with the penalties given,

0:33:43.560 --> 0:33:46.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, all the bad stuff. They've lost three out

0:33:46.960 --> 0:33:50.440
<v Speaker 1>of four. They lost a terrible game to Denver at home.

0:33:50.960 --> 0:33:56.280
<v Speaker 1>They lose to a Raiders team going nowhere fast. Three

0:33:56.400 --> 0:33:59.520
<v Speaker 1>losses in a row have all kinds of turmoil. They

0:33:59.600 --> 0:34:02.440
<v Speaker 1>can't win that game. They haven't been to the NFC

0:34:02.680 --> 0:34:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Championship Game since nineteen ninety six. Ever since Jerry Jones

0:34:07.680 --> 0:34:09.919
<v Speaker 1>took over the franchise and turned it into a mom

0:34:10.000 --> 0:34:14.560
<v Speaker 1>and pop store, They've won nothing. They've won nothing, and

0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:19.000
<v Speaker 1>people keep propping up the Dallas Cowboys as if they're

0:34:19.239 --> 0:34:21.759
<v Speaker 1>they're not one of the best teams the top three

0:34:21.840 --> 0:34:25.280
<v Speaker 1>teams in the NFC. They were in a terrible division.

0:34:25.880 --> 0:34:30.319
<v Speaker 1>They've gotten fat off of beating those teams, and when

0:34:30.360 --> 0:34:33.320
<v Speaker 1>it mattered most, right after a six and one start,

0:34:33.840 --> 0:34:36.959
<v Speaker 1>they had a schedule that easily a good team would

0:34:36.960 --> 0:34:39.880
<v Speaker 1>have won three out of four, maybe would have lost

0:34:39.960 --> 0:34:44.120
<v Speaker 1>to Kansas City. And Kansas City had been scuffling going

0:34:44.200 --> 0:34:48.480
<v Speaker 1>into that game, barely beating Jordan Love and the Packers,

0:34:49.040 --> 0:34:53.720
<v Speaker 1>barely beating the Giants by three points, a bad Giants team,

0:34:54.160 --> 0:34:57.239
<v Speaker 1>and yet they got steamroll. We're never in that game

0:34:57.680 --> 0:35:00.720
<v Speaker 1>in Kansas City, they beat up. Even though they scored

0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:05.080
<v Speaker 1>thirty three points at home, they still lost. And people

0:35:05.120 --> 0:35:07.920
<v Speaker 1>are still trying to convince you that the Dallas Cowboys

0:35:08.320 --> 0:35:13.200
<v Speaker 1>have something going Count me out, Jason McIntyre. I'm not

0:35:13.400 --> 0:35:17.279
<v Speaker 1>buying the Cowboys, not buying that Dak Prescott was ever

0:35:17.760 --> 0:35:21.800
<v Speaker 1>in the running for MVP. Not buying the phony numbers

0:35:21.840 --> 0:35:24.839
<v Speaker 1>against and the big numbers against the bad teams. I'm

0:35:24.880 --> 0:35:28.600
<v Speaker 1>not buying any of that. The Cowboys are who we

0:35:28.760 --> 0:35:31.759
<v Speaker 1>thought they were, which is they will be on the

0:35:31.880 --> 0:35:35.680
<v Speaker 1>outside looking in when it comes to when the big

0:35:35.760 --> 0:35:38.359
<v Speaker 1>boys show up for the postseason. Okay, Rob, that's all fair,

0:35:38.960 --> 0:35:43.080
<v Speaker 1>I can. I'm not gonna argue the history lesson. Thank

0:35:43.120 --> 0:35:45.280
<v Speaker 1>you for that. By the way, they Dallas Cowboys historically

0:35:45.280 --> 0:35:47.160
<v Speaker 1>of stunk. All that being said, toss it out the window.

0:35:47.440 --> 0:35:49.680
<v Speaker 1>It's irrelevant. Dak wasn't on those teams in the early

0:35:49.760 --> 0:35:53.240
<v Speaker 1>two thousands. Okay, Mike McCarthy wasn't the coach. They didn't

0:35:53.280 --> 0:35:57.080
<v Speaker 1>have Zekin ceedee, Lamb. Let's look at this season and

0:35:57.239 --> 0:36:01.760
<v Speaker 1>what do the numbers tell you. The numbers don't lie. Okay,

0:36:02.120 --> 0:36:06.880
<v Speaker 1>humans lie a lot, players lie, coaches lie. The numbers

0:36:06.960 --> 0:36:10.239
<v Speaker 1>don't lie. And Dallas right now is the fourth most

0:36:10.320 --> 0:36:13.680
<v Speaker 1>efficient team in the NFL. Currently, they rank eighth in

0:36:13.800 --> 0:36:17.920
<v Speaker 1>offensive efficiency, fourth in defense. Why are they fourth in defense? Well,

0:36:18.000 --> 0:36:19.440
<v Speaker 1>like you said, they beat up a lot of bad

0:36:19.480 --> 0:36:22.839
<v Speaker 1>teams and their defense showed well. Okay, that being said,

0:36:23.120 --> 0:36:25.799
<v Speaker 1>the defense isn't even healthy. If we're gonna give rob

0:36:25.840 --> 0:36:27.560
<v Speaker 1>the Green Bay Packers a pass because they don't have

0:36:27.640 --> 0:36:31.640
<v Speaker 1>JayR Alexander excuse me, and the add rushers, we gotta

0:36:31.680 --> 0:36:34.000
<v Speaker 1>give Dallas a little bit of a pass. They haven't

0:36:34.040 --> 0:36:38.320
<v Speaker 1>had DeMarcus Lawrence, They're best defender. They haven't had Randy

0:36:38.400 --> 0:36:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Gregory since he's gone out the pass rush has been

0:36:40.400 --> 0:36:43.520
<v Speaker 1>non existent this week. They did not have Ceedee Lamb,

0:36:43.560 --> 0:36:46.480
<v Speaker 1>who's emerging as one of the ten best receivers. They

0:36:46.560 --> 0:36:48.200
<v Speaker 1>did not have they were favorites. They did not have

0:36:48.280 --> 0:36:50.880
<v Speaker 1>a Murray Cooper. So if you if I think the

0:36:51.080 --> 0:36:54.799
<v Speaker 1>common obvious, you know, look is Dallas lost the game.

0:36:54.840 --> 0:36:57.560
<v Speaker 1>They stink, They're terrible. I'm looking at it as a gambler.

0:36:57.719 --> 0:36:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh man, this is a good buy low opportunity to

0:36:59.680 --> 0:37:02.920
<v Speaker 1>give me some Cowboys if their odds changed to win

0:37:02.960 --> 0:37:04.960
<v Speaker 1>the NFC East, to win the Super Bowl. I know

0:37:05.040 --> 0:37:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Philly's coming, I know Washington's not dead yet, but Dallas

0:37:09.520 --> 0:37:12.560
<v Speaker 1>is still a big flashing by folks. The reality is

0:37:12.600 --> 0:37:15.440
<v Speaker 1>this team's gonna be there, maybe in the NFC Championship game.

0:37:16.360 --> 0:37:20.200
<v Speaker 1>They're trending downward. Three losses in the last four games.

0:37:20.600 --> 0:37:23.680
<v Speaker 1>I think people got crazy. Even when they beat the

0:37:23.760 --> 0:37:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Falcons forty three to three, that terrible franchise. People were

0:37:28.200 --> 0:37:31.080
<v Speaker 1>ranting and raving about the Cowboys. That's what they were

0:37:31.160 --> 0:37:35.879
<v Speaker 1>ranting and raving about. And instead it's been bad since then.

0:37:36.480 --> 0:37:42.240
<v Speaker 1>That Chiefs game nine points, that was another stinker. The Raiders,

0:37:42.400 --> 0:37:45.480
<v Speaker 1>of course another that team, a bad team should have

0:37:45.600 --> 0:37:48.840
<v Speaker 1>beaten them up. Even with all the missing pieces and parts,

0:37:49.280 --> 0:37:52.000
<v Speaker 1>they still were in that game. They still scored thirty

0:37:52.080 --> 0:37:54.920
<v Speaker 1>three points. And those are the things you gotta look at.

0:37:55.000 --> 0:37:57.879
<v Speaker 1>It's the trends of now. You can't tell me about

0:37:57.960 --> 0:38:02.160
<v Speaker 1>September and October games were in December almost and you're

0:38:02.200 --> 0:38:04.799
<v Speaker 1>talking about games they won in the first two months

0:38:04.840 --> 0:38:07.640
<v Speaker 1>of the season. No, I want to talk about where

0:38:07.680 --> 0:38:11.240
<v Speaker 1>they are now going forward? Well, and that's the problem

0:38:11.320 --> 0:38:14.320
<v Speaker 1>I have, is that they're trending downward. You could go

0:38:14.400 --> 0:38:18.400
<v Speaker 1>ahead and say it's a great buye gambling wise and

0:38:19.080 --> 0:38:21.920
<v Speaker 1>pile up and you'll be stuck holding the bag like

0:38:22.120 --> 0:38:25.680
<v Speaker 1>everybody else has the last twenty five years. Why have

0:38:25.719 --> 0:38:27.680
<v Speaker 1>they lost three or four? Well, they didn't have Tyron

0:38:27.760 --> 0:38:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Smith against Denver and the Chiefs. He's one of the best.

0:38:30.600 --> 0:38:33.000
<v Speaker 1>The injuries are part of what about the last two weeks.

0:38:34.360 --> 0:38:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Get that offense in the second against Kansas City without

0:38:37.880 --> 0:38:40.359
<v Speaker 1>their top two receivers. You could go ahead and take

0:38:40.520 --> 0:38:43.680
<v Speaker 1>almost any team in the league outside of Brady and Rodgers,

0:38:43.880 --> 0:38:46.680
<v Speaker 1>take away their top two receivers and they're gonna sputter

0:38:46.760 --> 0:38:50.560
<v Speaker 1>and they're gonna stink Tyber two receivers out against the Broncos. No,

0:38:50.800 --> 0:38:53.320
<v Speaker 1>against the Bronhalls. They did not have Tyron Smith and

0:38:53.480 --> 0:38:56.320
<v Speaker 1>it was clearly a massive letdown after the win against

0:38:56.320 --> 0:38:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Cooper Rush. I'm not excusing the loss. That's a bad loss.

0:38:59.840 --> 0:39:02.520
<v Speaker 1>You shouldn't lose to Teddy two Gloves. You should not

0:39:02.719 --> 0:39:05.840
<v Speaker 1>lose to Teddy Covers, Teddy Bridgewater. They were down thirty

0:39:05.880 --> 0:39:09.400
<v Speaker 1>to nothing after like fifty minutes. It's like gutless performance.

0:39:09.440 --> 0:39:12.000
<v Speaker 1>It looked terrible. You could tell they were feeling themselves

0:39:12.040 --> 0:39:15.680
<v Speaker 1>after winning with Cooper Rush in Minnesota. Okay, and Dak

0:39:15.719 --> 0:39:17.800
<v Speaker 1>probably wasn't one hundred percent, but whatever, you move on

0:39:17.920 --> 0:39:20.359
<v Speaker 1>from that game. Rob. I don't know if it's maybe

0:39:21.360 --> 0:39:23.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting the fumes from the California cush that everybody

0:39:24.040 --> 0:39:26.919
<v Speaker 1>smokes out here, but maybe I'm getting a little zen.

0:39:27.560 --> 0:39:29.960
<v Speaker 1>One of my new mantras in life, and I suggest

0:39:30.000 --> 0:39:32.280
<v Speaker 1>taking this on for twenty twenty two. It's helped me immensely.

0:39:33.000 --> 0:39:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Never get too high, never get too low in life.

0:39:37.040 --> 0:39:40.040
<v Speaker 1>In sports, I didn't get too high when Dallas won

0:39:40.320 --> 0:39:42.799
<v Speaker 1>forty three to three against the Falcons. All Right, I'm

0:39:42.880 --> 0:39:45.280
<v Speaker 1>not going there were a lot of people who went crazy.

0:39:45.400 --> 0:39:48.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna get too low because they choked against

0:39:48.760 --> 0:39:52.560
<v Speaker 1>the Raiders as favorites on Thanksgiving at home and losing

0:39:52.640 --> 0:39:56.080
<v Speaker 1>overtime without I don't know, three of their top five players,

0:39:56.480 --> 0:39:59.200
<v Speaker 1>top seven players. I'm not gonna get too low. I'm

0:39:59.239 --> 0:40:02.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna look holistically at this team and say, man, this

0:40:02.560 --> 0:40:05.919
<v Speaker 1>is a good buying opportunity when they had so many injuries. Yeah,

0:40:06.120 --> 0:40:09.200
<v Speaker 1>give me some more Dallas, just as I did when

0:40:09.280 --> 0:40:13.839
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers was out and that defense fought hard. Green Bay,

0:40:14.040 --> 0:40:16.759
<v Speaker 1>by the way, in Kansas City, I mean they were.

0:40:16.960 --> 0:40:18.759
<v Speaker 1>They were in that game right Robin in the fourth

0:40:18.840 --> 0:40:21.960
<v Speaker 1>quarter with Jordan Love, who I don't know if he's

0:40:21.960 --> 0:40:24.799
<v Speaker 1>ready to coach quarterback of college football team. That's how

0:40:24.840 --> 0:40:27.279
<v Speaker 1>bad he looked. I thought Green Bay was a buy.

0:40:27.320 --> 0:40:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you right now, Rob, you asked me who

0:40:29.080 --> 0:40:31.800
<v Speaker 1>were the best teams in the NFC. I think Tampa

0:40:32.440 --> 0:40:34.319
<v Speaker 1>is up there. I think Green Bay, once they get

0:40:34.400 --> 0:40:36.480
<v Speaker 1>healthy on defense, is gonna be very dangerous if they

0:40:36.520 --> 0:40:39.000
<v Speaker 1>can get their left tackle situation figured out. I like

0:40:39.160 --> 0:40:42.560
<v Speaker 1>the Rams with Matt Stafford, and I like the Dallas Cowboys.

0:40:42.600 --> 0:40:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Those for me are the four clear cut best teams.

0:40:45.400 --> 0:40:47.360
<v Speaker 1>And I know I didn't mention Arizona and a lot

0:40:47.400 --> 0:40:50.080
<v Speaker 1>of people are gonna be at Arizona has nine wins

0:40:50.239 --> 0:40:54.239
<v Speaker 1>and you're putting the Cowboys ahead of them, which makes

0:40:54.320 --> 0:40:56.760
<v Speaker 1>no sense to me. I mean, I think it's total

0:40:56.920 --> 0:41:01.239
<v Speaker 1>disrespect and I don't I don't understand and why you

0:41:01.320 --> 0:41:04.400
<v Speaker 1>don't have Arizona in your top four. I'd have Dallas

0:41:05.200 --> 0:41:07.640
<v Speaker 1>in the top seven or whatever, but I don't have

0:41:07.880 --> 0:41:11.080
<v Speaker 1>them ahead of Arizona with the most wins. They went

0:41:11.160 --> 0:41:13.759
<v Speaker 1>in the LA, they beat up the Rams in a

0:41:13.840 --> 0:41:16.839
<v Speaker 1>big game. They did lose the Green Bay at home.

0:41:17.000 --> 0:41:20.320
<v Speaker 1>That was a bad loss. They've battled their own injuries.

0:41:20.440 --> 0:41:25.880
<v Speaker 1>They've gone and beaten teams without Hopkins and without Kyler Murray.

0:41:26.080 --> 0:41:28.680
<v Speaker 1>That they didn't use those excuses because they were a

0:41:28.760 --> 0:41:32.000
<v Speaker 1>good team. Go look at those games that they won

0:41:32.080 --> 0:41:35.320
<v Speaker 1>that they had no business winning without their quarterback and

0:41:35.480 --> 0:41:38.640
<v Speaker 1>top receiver. But you sit around and make excuses that

0:41:38.719 --> 0:41:42.720
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys have lost because they're missing people the NFL,

0:41:42.880 --> 0:41:46.279
<v Speaker 1>you miss people, People get hurt, players get hurt all

0:41:46.320 --> 0:41:48.480
<v Speaker 1>the time. You know what, the next guy has to

0:41:48.560 --> 0:41:51.080
<v Speaker 1>get it together. Yeah. So here's the thing about Arizona.

0:41:51.080 --> 0:41:52.960
<v Speaker 1>If you guys listen to my podcast straight Fire, you

0:41:53.080 --> 0:41:56.440
<v Speaker 1>know I've loved Arizona. I picked them to make the playoffs.

0:41:56.680 --> 0:41:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Go ahead, and look up all the pundits back in August,

0:41:59.600 --> 0:42:02.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm nobody had Arizona in the playoffs. I liked this

0:42:02.520 --> 0:42:05.400
<v Speaker 1>team a lot. I've got a good connection with the organization,

0:42:05.640 --> 0:42:07.640
<v Speaker 1>and I've liked Arizona a lot this season. I've beattled

0:42:07.680 --> 0:42:09.880
<v Speaker 1>him and want a lot of money. That being said,

0:42:10.640 --> 0:42:13.759
<v Speaker 1>my concern Rob is Kyler Murray. We've now seen two

0:42:13.840 --> 0:42:18.000
<v Speaker 1>straight seasons where he's a small quarterback and he's broken down,

0:42:18.120 --> 0:42:20.839
<v Speaker 1>and when he's hurt, they are far from a good

0:42:20.880 --> 0:42:23.359
<v Speaker 1>football team. I don't think colpe McCoy could go win

0:42:23.440 --> 0:42:26.719
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs. I liked the idea of sitting Kyler Hill.

0:42:26.800 --> 0:42:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Now I've had a full month with that high ankle

0:42:29.560 --> 0:42:33.080
<v Speaker 1>spraying to be out a full month, okay. My problem

0:42:33.200 --> 0:42:35.160
<v Speaker 1>is if he's not one hundred percent, there's no way

0:42:35.200 --> 0:42:37.080
<v Speaker 1>this team is doing any damage in the playoffs. And

0:42:37.200 --> 0:42:40.319
<v Speaker 1>I also question against good teams, can the defense get

0:42:40.360 --> 0:42:42.320
<v Speaker 1>it done. We know the offense, if Kyler's healthy, is

0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:44.400
<v Speaker 1>going to be there. But Rob, this is a defense

0:42:44.760 --> 0:42:48.440
<v Speaker 1>that got dump trucked at home by p J Walker

0:42:49.040 --> 0:42:51.120
<v Speaker 1>and Cam Newton. A couple of weeks ago, we talk

0:42:51.160 --> 0:42:54.960
<v Speaker 1>about bad losses. They got destroyed. They got curb stomped

0:42:55.360 --> 0:42:58.800
<v Speaker 1>at home by Carolina and it wasn't I know, the

0:42:58.880 --> 0:43:02.080
<v Speaker 1>offense was bad, but defense couldn't stop them. That's what

0:43:02.280 --> 0:43:05.239
<v Speaker 1>makes me nervous. The Arizona defense and Kyler Murray's health.

0:43:05.320 --> 0:43:08.040
<v Speaker 1>Those are two massive red flags for the Cardinals heading

0:43:08.040 --> 0:43:11.480
<v Speaker 1>into the playoffs. But but somehow they've won nine games, right,

0:43:12.000 --> 0:43:15.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I get it, playing in the toughest division

0:43:15.200 --> 0:43:18.840
<v Speaker 1>in football. I mean, you gotta give them credit for

0:43:19.000 --> 0:43:21.800
<v Speaker 1>where they are and what they've been able to do.

0:43:23.120 --> 0:43:26.319
<v Speaker 1>And I think Arizona obviously you got to have your

0:43:26.400 --> 0:43:30.400
<v Speaker 1>quarterback healthy long term. But they've been able to manage

0:43:30.480 --> 0:43:34.319
<v Speaker 1>and get through this and it's been pretty amazing where

0:43:34.400 --> 0:43:37.000
<v Speaker 1>they are. And even in that game that they lost

0:43:37.040 --> 0:43:40.120
<v Speaker 1>to Green Bay, if you remember they lost twenty four

0:43:40.320 --> 0:43:43.239
<v Speaker 1>twenty one, and Murray had the interception in the end zone, right,

0:43:43.560 --> 0:43:46.759
<v Speaker 1>remember they were Murray had the interception or a J.

0:43:47.000 --> 0:43:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Green didn't know what the hell he was doing and

0:43:48.560 --> 0:43:52.839
<v Speaker 1>didn't Still was an interception on Murray's record, right, Yes

0:43:52.960 --> 0:43:55.719
<v Speaker 1>or no, it counts for Murray, but I don't think

0:43:55.719 --> 0:43:57.960
<v Speaker 1>that was his fault. I mean, if your stage accounts

0:43:58.280 --> 0:44:01.160
<v Speaker 1>you're not blocking on that play right there, there's you're

0:44:01.200 --> 0:44:03.560
<v Speaker 1>not blocking like It's all I'm saying is they had

0:44:03.600 --> 0:44:06.840
<v Speaker 1>a chance to win that game as well. So I

0:44:07.000 --> 0:44:08.520
<v Speaker 1>take a look at what they've been able to do.

0:44:09.000 --> 0:44:11.120
<v Speaker 1>It's been pretty incredible. What do you trust more in

0:44:11.160 --> 0:44:15.719
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs? Matt Stafford or Kyler Murray? Kyler Murray, I've

0:44:15.760 --> 0:44:19.160
<v Speaker 1>seen Matthew Stafford. I've just I've seen, and I'm not

0:44:19.320 --> 0:44:22.640
<v Speaker 1>buying into him until he proves to me that he

0:44:22.760 --> 0:44:24.640
<v Speaker 1>can win a big game. Okay, if they lose in

0:44:24.680 --> 0:44:26.319
<v Speaker 1>the first if they lose in the first round, want

0:44:26.360 --> 0:44:29.800
<v Speaker 1>you to have me on your podcast? Uh, straight fire,

0:44:29.960 --> 0:44:32.640
<v Speaker 1>while I'll dump water on your straight firepot. Okay, who

0:44:32.719 --> 0:44:34.360
<v Speaker 1>do you trust the more as a coach? Cliff Kingsbury

0:44:34.400 --> 0:44:39.600
<v Speaker 1>or McVeigh. Well. Mcveag got addressed by Bill Belichick and

0:44:39.640 --> 0:44:44.080
<v Speaker 1>couldn't make any adjustments. You remember, it wasn't a Super Bowl,

0:44:44.160 --> 0:44:47.480
<v Speaker 1>and they came into the Super Bowl averaging thirty three

0:44:47.800 --> 0:44:50.840
<v Speaker 1>points six points a game, and they scored a grand

0:44:50.920 --> 0:44:54.840
<v Speaker 1>total of three and he was undressed and the only field,

0:44:54.880 --> 0:44:57.080
<v Speaker 1>the only three points came on an eighty nine yard

0:44:57.160 --> 0:45:00.520
<v Speaker 1>field goal. That's how bad he got a taking Cliff

0:45:00.600 --> 0:45:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Kingsbury over. I'm not saying that, but befo, who you

0:45:06.200 --> 0:45:09.719
<v Speaker 1>got well before? You don't sit on the fence. No,

0:45:09.880 --> 0:45:11.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm not. I don't sit on the fence. Okay, So

0:45:11.560 --> 0:45:13.800
<v Speaker 1>who you got, Kingsbury or McVeigh. Who you trust me?

0:45:13.960 --> 0:45:16.359
<v Speaker 1>I'll take McVeigh because he got there. But I'm just saying,

0:45:16.440 --> 0:45:19.840
<v Speaker 1>don't try to act like he's done something or he's

0:45:20.160 --> 0:45:22.600
<v Speaker 1>the greatest coach since Slice Brett. I just want to

0:45:22.640 --> 0:45:26.399
<v Speaker 1>remind some people of the stuff Kingsbury pulled last year

0:45:26.680 --> 0:45:28.600
<v Speaker 1>in the second half of the season. He was the

0:45:28.680 --> 0:45:31.640
<v Speaker 1>biggest liability outside of Kyler Murray's health. So I know

0:45:31.719 --> 0:45:33.759
<v Speaker 1>we're going in on Arizona and we should have been.

0:45:34.200 --> 0:45:36.160
<v Speaker 1>Let you go in on Dallas, But do you have

0:45:36.239 --> 0:45:39.000
<v Speaker 1>a final word on Dak Prescott? Rob Yeah. I just

0:45:39.120 --> 0:45:41.720
<v Speaker 1>think that as time goes on, there's still more to prove.

0:45:41.840 --> 0:45:44.520
<v Speaker 1>And I think some people tried to push him in

0:45:44.640 --> 0:45:47.400
<v Speaker 1>the top tier. I think even you agree he's not

0:45:47.560 --> 0:45:50.680
<v Speaker 1>in the top tier quarterback. He's not. So if there's

0:45:50.719 --> 0:45:53.879
<v Speaker 1>thirty two teams in the NFL, what would the top

0:45:53.960 --> 0:45:56.960
<v Speaker 1>tier be? The top the top tier would be Uh,

0:45:57.520 --> 0:46:03.240
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes. He's not in that group.

0:46:03.480 --> 0:46:06.960
<v Speaker 1>And that's a that's that's a small group. Well, well

0:46:07.000 --> 0:46:10.439
<v Speaker 1>that's the top time. Okay, the top tier. You can three,

0:46:10.840 --> 0:46:15.120
<v Speaker 1>so that's the top tier. Three not in that group.

0:46:15.200 --> 0:46:17.040
<v Speaker 1>But I think people when they look at some of

0:46:17.160 --> 0:46:21.759
<v Speaker 1>his numbers think that he ranks up there. Prescott in

0:46:21.840 --> 0:46:24.319
<v Speaker 1>the same class as those three guys. But you don't

0:46:24.360 --> 0:46:26.920
<v Speaker 1>have Aaron Rodgers in that group. I said Aaron Rodgers,

0:46:26.960 --> 0:46:31.759
<v Speaker 1>I said Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, Uh, Tom Brady, Golser. Okay,

0:46:32.000 --> 0:46:34.279
<v Speaker 1>what I would consider the top three. So then fine,

0:46:34.800 --> 0:46:41.160
<v Speaker 1>what's the next tier. You gotta have Dak in there? Lamar, Well,

0:46:41.280 --> 0:46:45.719
<v Speaker 1>Lamar should be Lamar should be in there. Definitely. Um.

0:46:46.120 --> 0:46:48.919
<v Speaker 1>I have to take a look at all my kirk

0:46:49.000 --> 0:46:51.520
<v Speaker 1>Cousins numbers and again, I listen, I'm not a kirk

0:46:51.600 --> 0:46:54.120
<v Speaker 1>Cousins guy, but Rob, it's undeniable. Kirk Cousins has been

0:46:54.160 --> 0:46:56.719
<v Speaker 1>great this year. I'm just telling you right now. If

0:46:56.760 --> 0:46:59.719
<v Speaker 1>they beat San France, and I don't really have a

0:46:59.760 --> 0:47:05.600
<v Speaker 1>good I think they're five and five. Yeah, listen, maybe

0:47:05.640 --> 0:47:07.520
<v Speaker 1>at six and five, I don't know, but bottom line,

0:47:07.520 --> 0:47:10.520
<v Speaker 1>if they beat San France, they will firmly be in

0:47:10.640 --> 0:47:12.640
<v Speaker 1>the playoff mix. Now I don't know about that. The

0:47:12.760 --> 0:47:15.120
<v Speaker 1>line has had some wonky movement. It was two and

0:47:15.160 --> 0:47:16.759
<v Speaker 1>a half San fright now it's three and al or

0:47:16.760 --> 0:47:19.200
<v Speaker 1>a training toward three and a half. So somebody knows

0:47:19.239 --> 0:47:21.920
<v Speaker 1>something about the vikings. They had that defensive lineman Um

0:47:22.080 --> 0:47:25.560
<v Speaker 1>with that sketchy moment on social media. It sounds like

0:47:25.640 --> 0:47:27.880
<v Speaker 1>he's having a mental health thing. He doesn't sound like

0:47:27.960 --> 0:47:31.040
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna play. But if Kirk Cousins wins that game,

0:47:31.160 --> 0:47:32.520
<v Speaker 1>and I know you're not gonna want to hear this,

0:47:33.160 --> 0:47:36.440
<v Speaker 1>but we need to readjust the MVP discussion and include

0:47:36.520 --> 0:47:40.319
<v Speaker 1>Kirk Cousins, who is having an unbelievable, unbelievable season as

0:47:40.320 --> 0:47:42.640
<v Speaker 1>a quarter. Kirk Cousins will not win the MVP with

0:47:42.800 --> 0:47:45.880
<v Speaker 1>a He's not fin he's not five hundred. If he

0:47:45.920 --> 0:47:48.400
<v Speaker 1>gets to ten and ten and seven, can he win

0:47:48.440 --> 0:47:51.080
<v Speaker 1>the MVP. Yeah, I'd have to see it to believe it.

0:47:51.160 --> 0:47:53.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe that that would be the case, not

0:47:54.120 --> 0:47:54.279
<v Speaker 1>yet
