1
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 1: This is straight fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up?

2
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 1: Straight fire? Fam, It's me Jason McIntyre. This is straight

3
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: fire for Monday, December. I hope everybody had a phenomenal, outstanding,

4
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 1: just a terrific weekend. Mine was awesome. I'm not gonna

5
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: boy you with all the details. Um, it's just a

6
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: lot of fun was had. Kids are officially on holiday break. Um,

7
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: obviously there was some great NFL Bowl season got underway.

8
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: The NBA. I don't know if anybody's even paying attention

9
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: right now, but like the NBA is going through the

10
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: worst COVID upheaval, I guess in the last year and change,

11
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 1: and like a bunch of games were canceled, not just yesterday,

12
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: not just today, but like tomorrow. And at this point,

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: the NBA has gotta be like, oh my gosh, we

14
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 1: gotta preserve the Christmas late because of course the NFL

15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: is coming on Christmas. There will be Brown's I think

16
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: we're calling him the Cleveland Covids. Uh, They're facing Aaron

17
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,320
Speaker 1: Rodgers and the best team, yes, the best team in

18
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: the NFL on Saturday, folks, I listen, it's Christmas week.

19
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a little chaotic, just as the NFL

20
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 1: was all weekend. And um we also, by the way,

21
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: have two NFL games tonight. Best bet is gonna be

22
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: on fire later and then two NFL games tomorrow. I

23
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: will get it out of the way early, because you

24
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: guys know, I've been prattling on about it, uh endlessly,

25
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: the big money Survivor contest that I'm in, UH fifty

26
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: dollar buy in. There's like people in it. Apparently the

27
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: winner got eighty two thousand dollars last year. Uh, and

28
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: I guess they pay out second, maybe third. But um,

29
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: I'm one of the final. Twenty five guys left and

30
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: four people were eliminated. Sunday three had the um the

31
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. Oh my god, what a ship show. That was. Goodness.

32
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: I'm embarrassed for the Cardinals personally. UM, we'll talk about

33
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: that game later. It was. It was a little flukey,

34
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: but at the same time some major red flags for

35
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. And then one guy had the Jacksonville Jaguars,

36
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: and um, as you guys know, I was on social media.

37
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: I was texting a bunch of buddies. Do I pivot

38
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: to Jacksonville because the Eagles, who I wanted all week up,

39
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 1: moved to Tuesday, and you look at the Jacksonville Houston game,

40
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: which nobody cared. Nobody was looking at. Our game was

41
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: garbage and the line was going up up in a way.

42
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: The Texans had a bunch of injuries. They were they

43
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: had like four practice squad dudes starting on defense, and

44
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: you're just like, oh my gosh. You know Jacksonville they

45
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: fired their coach. You're gonna win it for Urban. You know,

46
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: Urban's toxicity is gone. And I I'm telling you I

47
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: nearly switched it. And it's one of those moments and

48
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 1: you guys know in life, you had this moment where like, um,

49
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: you can go one way or the other, and you

50
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: know you it's a big decision. And again I like

51
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: to think that I've got maybe a D two K

52
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: coming my way. I can maybe win this bitch. And

53
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: I thought about it. I I was like, my first instinct

54
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 1: for like three days was Eagles. So I'm gonna stick

55
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: with it. And I did not swap. Thank goodness. And

56
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: my buddy Dan, who is a religious listener, He's got

57
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: me into this cool boxing class out here in the

58
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: South Bay, really good intense workout. He said. I would

59
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: have been in the fetal position if I had taken

60
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: the Jaguars. That is probably true because they got smoked.

61
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: It was never really close. The Texans ran a kick back,

62
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,679
Speaker 1: but nobody cares about that. You guys are here for

63
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: the takes. And I didn't know if I should start

64
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: by just, you know, taking Tom Brady in the bucks

65
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,399
Speaker 1: behind the wood shed. For what the hell? They put

66
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: up one of the most embarrassing performances of the season.

67
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: They got blanked at home nine nothing by the New

68
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints. And and I was joking to a friend

69
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: on Twitter, I bet somebody's gonna go on the like

70
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: Tom Brady's Wikipedia and page and be like Tom Brady's

71
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: parents are the New Orleans Saints. They owned him in

72
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: the regular season. They have. They beat him twice in

73
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: the regular season last year, and they beat Brady twice

74
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: in the regular season this year, once with Trevor Simeon

75
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: backing up Jameis Winston and then last night in Tampa

76
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: with Taysom Hill. I mean, that was as stunning a

77
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: result as you will find all season. I think it's

78
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: got to be up there. Listen, Arizona, UH and Detroit

79
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: was huge. Um and there was a large The Bills

80
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: losing to Jacksonville was massive, and then the opener. Uh,

81
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: and it was Week one. It wasn't a huge spread.

82
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 1: But the Packers getting destroyed by the Saints thirty eight

83
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: three massive. I'm just telling you guys now, Dennis Allen,

84
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator of the Saints, clearly has Tom Brady's number.

85
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: He owns Brady right now. Brady could do nothing. He

86
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: was sacked four times. I had to look this up.

87
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: Brady was sacked a total of four times in the

88
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: last five games combined. He hadn't been sacked four times

89
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: in a game this year. It isn't often you see

90
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: the Bucks offensive line just get dump trucked. They got

91
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: pushed around, they got bullied in the trenches, and then

92
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: you lose Evans to injury, you lose Godwin to injury,

93
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: and suddenly it's like, oh, um, wait a minute. Tom

94
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: Brady and went in the m v P. He looked

95
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: very very mortal. Uh. Zero touchdowns, first shutout, and of

96
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: course they're the stats all over all over the internet.

97
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: Tom Brady's first shutout in two games. It was the

98
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: second longest streak in NFL history. Of course, the last

99
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: coach to shut out Tom Brady. If you want to

100
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: like impress girls at UM like bar trivia night, although

101
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: the girls at bar Trivia Night probably not. Yeah, I

102
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: should stop right now. Uh. Nick Saban in two thousand

103
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: and six with the Dolphins blanked the Bucks, I'm sorry, Blake,

104
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: the Patriots and Brady twenty one nothing so Nick Saban

105
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: and Dennis Allen, you know, impressive. I don't know. I'm

106
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: not gonna reach here, but I it's pretty clear there

107
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: is a blueprint for beating Tom Brady and the Bucks

108
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: and whatever the Saints are doing. That's it. Remember how

109
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs offense was like a monster for

110
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 1: three years, unstoppable, and then the Chargers did this too

111
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: high safety look, everybody started copying it, and all of

112
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: a sudden, this year Chiefs have been slowed down except

113
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: by the idiotic Raiders who don't want to, you know,

114
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: follow the blueprint. Um, we'll talk about the Chiefs later

115
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: in the week. They may have blown that up on

116
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: on Thursday Night, but we'll get to that later. It

117
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: feels like right now the Saints have Brady's number. Now.

118
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: The scary thing for the Um, for the Bucks is

119
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: that if you look at the playoffs, uh, you know

120
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints are they might get in and

121
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: then if Brady has to face them, because the Packers

122
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: are gonna run away with the NFC, that's a lock. Okay,

123
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: Packers number one seed, UM eleven and three after the

124
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: win over the Ravens, although we're gonna talk about that

125
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: because I have strong thoughts and I'm very angry at

126
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: John Harbor, very very angry I had the Packers in

127
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: the contest AboutUs five and a half. Anyways, UM Saints

128
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: are currently the seven seed. Okay, Washington, which as of

129
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: this moment, as we record this right now, they're gonna

130
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: start a practice squad guy on Tuesday night. Now, maybe

131
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen or Taylor Heineke comes off the COVID list

132
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: and they're able to play. I personally don't think it matters.

133
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 1: I think Washington did trouble Minnesota tonight against a COVID

134
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: rampant Bears team could get to seven and seven. Um Uh.

135
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: There is the Eagles who play Washington in what feels

136
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: not like quite like a play in, but an elimination game.

137
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: You can't lose this if you're the egos are watching it.

138
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: That's a massive game. Falcons, come on the Jokers. But

139
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: shockingly there's six and eight. Um, they're not They're not

140
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: a good team. Um. So if if you are the Bucks,

141
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: you do not want to see the Saints. You don't

142
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: want to see them for the third time. I know

143
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: they beat him in the playoffs last year, but if

144
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: you guys remember that game, the Saints, we're winning and

145
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: then I think it was a Jared Cook fumble near midfield.

146
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 1: Drew Brees vomited all over him. So it was disgusting

147
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: and Brady and the Bucks got kind of a lucky

148
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: win on the road. Win is a win is a win.

149
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,119
Speaker 1: I know, I get it. They won the super Bowl.

150
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: But you guys can don't believe. I don't have to

151
00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: believe me if you don't want to, but go look

152
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: at what happened last year in Tampa. I think it

153
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 1: was thirty eight three, an epic beat down. So Dennis Allen,

154
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: I mean, based off these two wins over Brady a load.

155
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: He's got to get head coaching interviews. It has to

156
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: I don't know where, but he has to. Um, just

157
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: a phenomenal performance, totally bottled up Tampa and I think

158
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: the folks, this leaves pretty clear cut green Bay the

159
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: best team in the NFL. I would go right now,

160
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: green Bay number one, Kansas City Chiefs number two, and

161
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be popular, but the Dallas Cowboys for

162
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: me are number three. Now I'll get to the Cowboys

163
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: of in a minute, but I need to talk. I

164
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: thought I was gonna lead with um John Harball being

165
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: drunk on analytics. I mean it is. It's just astonishing

166
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: what this guy has become and what he's doing. And honestly,

167
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: from a gambling perspective, the way these coaches are getting

168
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: so aggressive, going for two all the time, it's messing

169
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: with everything. And I've of course been on the losing

170
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: end of a couple of these. And if it sounds

171
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: like I'm coming down hard on Hardball because of the gambling,

172
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: it's also no, oh, like why are you drunk on analytics?

173
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: Like what is the deal? Hardball? Why are you doing this?

174
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,319
Speaker 1: And and I don't want to say I got in

175
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: like a pissing contest with these nerds on the internet.

176
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: And again, I love math. I'm all for aggressiveness, but

177
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: there is a time and a place for this guy's

178
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: are we being serious. Does John Harball understand how dominant

179
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 1: his offense was, Yes, but led by Um the quarterback Huntley?

180
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: Does he does he understand what they did? Did that

181
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 1: sad sack Packers defense? They went up and down the

182
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: field against those guys. It wasn't okay. So they opened

183
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: the game going the length of the field and then

184
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: they had to turn it over on downs. I think

185
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: it like the three yard line. It was an impressive

186
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: drive from Huntley, right, and you got the vibe then, oh,

187
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:48,599
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a game. They're just gonna do

188
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: the ball control attack and they're gonna be able to

189
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: move the ball because the Packers just for some reason

190
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: don't understand that. Like Mark Andrews is good and Huntley

191
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 1: wants to throw the ball to him every time, Like

192
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, Green Bay just couldn't figure that out.

193
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: I could do it watching, you know from my sofa

194
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: about you know, two drives in um, but for whatever reason,

195
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: the Packers they couldn't do that. So the second drive,

196
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens right down the field, touchdown. Third drive Baltimore

197
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 1: Ravens right down the field, touchdown. Then they were held

198
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: to punt right then a halftime, second half, Ravens go

199
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: down in the field, field goal, turn it over on downs.

200
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 1: They were feeling a little desperate down seventeen, they went

201
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: for it on downs inside like their own thirty. They

202
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 1: didn't get it. Green Bay held to a field goal.

203
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 1: Ravens right down the field, touchdown. Ravens right down the field, touchdown.

204
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: So you're telling me you were only stopped, you have

205
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: two four You were punted once in the damn game.

206
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 1: The other two times you turn it over and downs,

207
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: and you felt we gotta go for two here in

208
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: the win. John Harpo deserves this, okay. They were number

209
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: one in the a f C three games ago. They

210
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: lose three straight games, two of them on his idiotic

211
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: calls to go for it on fourth down. Both failed,

212
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 1: and the Ravens are now currently out of the playoffs.

213
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: They have a massive game this week against the Cincinnati Bengals.

214
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: Nice one for the Bengals in Denver, Um. Bengals beat

215
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: down the Ravens in the earlier meeting. Right now, the

216
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: Ravens secondary is a horrible matchup for Chase and uh

217
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: Te Higgins and Tyler Boyd. Right now, the Bengals are

218
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 1: favored now it is early, and I you know, Lamar

219
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: should be back. But that's a massive game, and honestly,

220
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to sound you know, it's probably gonna

221
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: sound wrong. I'm rooting against horrible. I don't like what

222
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 1: he's doing. I just it doesn't make sense. So I

223
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: know people are like, oh, you hate math, You're a weirdo, Jason.

224
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: Let me just explain this. So they're down thirty one

225
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 1: to seventeen to the Packers. They score a touchdown. Let's

226
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: see how much time was left on the clock. They

227
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 1: get in the end zone with four minutes and forty

228
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: seven seconds left right to cut it to seven. Okay,

229
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: if you knew it was in your DNA that, hey man,

230
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 1: if we can get two touchdowns, we're going for the wind.

231
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 1: We're going for two. Why wouldn't you go for two

232
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: on the first touchdown to cut it to seven? Because

233
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: if you knew you were gonna go for two later

234
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: in the game, why not go for two early so

235
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: then you would know, Okay, we've got to go for

236
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: two the next time. Because that's what the analytics say,

237
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 1: the analytics evans at the math guys, the nerds, the

238
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 1: Johns Hopkins in the Yale smarty pants, and honestly, I

239
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: like those guys. I like hanging around smart people makes

240
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: me smarter. But those are the guys who say, yeah,

241
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: you know, if you're gonna go for too late in

242
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: the game, you should go for it early so you

243
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 1: can adjust how you're going to coach the rest of

244
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: the game. When you fail going for two on that

245
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: final touchdown with like forty five seconds left, you have

246
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: to onside kick at the odds of an onside kicker slim,

247
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: So if they had gone for two and failed the

248
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: first time, you would have known coming in we've got

249
00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: to get to And it felt like the play. Nobody

250
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: really liked it. They knew it that at that point

251
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: the Packers fifty eight minutes into the damn game, figured out,

252
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 1: hey man, it's probably gonna be something to Andrew's here.

253
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 1: Um and Huntley rolls out, which shrunk the field and

254
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: at that point the safety I want to say it

255
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: was savage, No, I don't think it was savage because

256
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: he was just lit up like a Christmas tree the

257
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: entire game. Dude, he was awful and um he could

258
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: not guard um Mark Andrews at all the entire game.

259
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: If you have Andrews in fantasy you did pretty well.

260
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,719
Speaker 1: Um yeah, it was it Savage. I don't know. I

261
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: didn't think it was. I thought it was thirty six,

262
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: but I doubt it was Vernon Scott. I'll try to check.

263
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: But bottom line, as they said, as soon as cuddently

264
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: rolled out, it was like, oh, it's going to Andrews.

265
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: So the guy made a beeline to Mark Andrews and

266
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: knocked the pass down. Um, and and it basically saved

267
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: the It saved the Packers from having to get a

268
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: field goal there at the end of the game. Now,

269
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: what's interesting there was probably enough time for Aaron Rodgers,

270
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,439
Speaker 1: as good as he is, to get the field goal,

271
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,839
Speaker 1: but selfishly, um, that would not have covered the five

272
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: and a half anyway. Now here's my other thought. Okay,

273
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: and I know if you want to remove the gambling,

274
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: that's fine. You're on the brink of missing the playoffs.

275
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: You have the best kicker in the league. You also

276
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: have an offense that has gone up and down the

277
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: field easily through a bad Packers defense. You're at home.

278
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: I don't know why you wouldn't roll the dice in overtime.

279
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: You win the coin toss, and you go down the field.

280
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 1: You want to be going for fourth down? Guy, go

281
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: fourth down all the way down the field? Got a touchdown?

282
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: Ball game, right? I just it doesn't make sense. And listen,

283
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: I know people are gonna say, hey, man, you killed Staley.

284
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: You went after hardball for this? What what do you

285
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: what do you have against going for too? I don't

286
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: have anything against it, and I'm not playing the results.

287
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: Oh if they had made it, Jason, he's a hero.

288
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: You would have loved it. I mean, I personally, I

289
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: don't care. I don't I would not have loved it.

290
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: I'm against the ravens now because hardball has cost to

291
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: be money. But at the same time he's killing his team.

292
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: Were they not the better side offensively? I mean, I

293
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I guess I understand not trusting

294
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: your defense that aspect. I understand because the defense was

295
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: bad and Rogers moved the qual at ease. But it

296
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: just feels like he's drinking from the analytics cooler way

297
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 1: way too often. And listen, you want to be aggressive

298
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: to a fault and you say, hey, you know what,

299
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: let's let's just go for all or nothing because all

300
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: our guys are hurt. Let's just give it a shot.

301
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, guys, I'm just not buying. I'm sure

302
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: you'll let me know about it if you disagree, and

303
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: that's fine. But currently ravens on the outside looking in.

304
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: They wrap up after the Bengals game. They have a

305
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: home game against the Rams. We know how dominant McVeigh

306
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: is on the East Coast, and then they close out

307
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: with the Steelers in a rivalry game that probably will

308
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: have playoff implications. Steelers got a nice win. Fox Sports

313
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: through the league and hammer every game. UM I do

314
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: want to quickly before we get to some games from Sunday.

315
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: I need to quickly talk about the Colts and the Patriots. Okay,

316
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: we noticed on this pod that, yes, the Patriots, they

317
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: were beating a bunch of bad quarterbacks and they were

318
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: not overly impressive. Hey, they beat the Falcons, but Atlanta

319
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: didn't have their best player, Cordarell Patterson. This is where

320
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: you say, come on, Jason Cordourel Patterson, give you a break,

321
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: get out of here. Okay, fine, fair enough. They beat

322
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 1: the Jets. They you know, they will pup on some

323
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: bad team. Let's be real. During the Patriots run, they

324
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 1: beat some not so great opponents. Then when over the

325
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: charges was nice. I'll give you that. Sam Donald's always

326
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: seen ghost when he faces Belichick. The beat down of

327
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: the Browns was pretty impressive. Although they didn't have Hunt

328
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: or Chubb in that game. And when you have to

329
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 1: have like injured Baker Mayfield win a game, good luck

330
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: with that. The Titans their total jokers. We know they

331
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: stink um. I saw a crazy stat that in the

332
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: last three games Ryan Tannehill on passes on more than

333
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: ten yards downfield, five of nineteen fifty four yards in

334
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: an interception. Basically, they're playing offense in a phone booth.

335
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: We've got a handoff, we've got to check down, We've

336
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: got to do four yard outs to tight ends. They

337
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: have nothing. A j Brown's hurt. Julio Jones hurt again.

338
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: By the way, listen, I'm a big Julio Jones fan,

339
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,959
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, and the guys washed, come on, I mean,

340
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 1: he's he's a popping a handstrig every day. I don't know.

341
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,439
Speaker 1: I feel bad for Julio. A crappy end to a

342
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: great career, but does anybody have a great ending to

343
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,959
Speaker 1: their career like John Elway going out on top. Peyton

344
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: Manning wasn't even great when he won that Super Bowl.

345
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: But nevertheless the Titans stink. So all these all these

346
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: wins for the Patriots are like, oh, are they that impressive?

347
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: Are they? And then the win over the Bills was

348
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: good because hey, we're gonna run the ball down your throat.

349
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: Know what's coming and I don't care stop me? And

350
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: they beat him in Buffalo. That was an impressive win.

351
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 1: But then they have to go to the Colts with

352
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: no weather a factor, facing a great offensive line. And

353
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,679
Speaker 1: I went to do these Fox gambling shows. I do

354
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 1: one with Coward Today and um and then I do

355
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 1: a Thursday show and then a Sunday show. And I

356
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 1: went on the Sunday show and I said, sorry the

357
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 1: Thursday show, I said, nobody wants to face the Colts.

358
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: Nobody like this team is real dangerous. They've got a

359
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: manly offensive line that just mauls everybody. They've got a

360
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: stud in Jonathan Taylor. They're like a throwback team. The

361
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 1: problem is Carson Wentz. And the problem was on full

362
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: display Saturday night. If anybody watched that game, Colts race

363
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: out to a seventeen nothing lead, Mac Jones looking like,

364
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: you know, a rookie. And this is what Frank Wreick does.

365
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: He gets to these early leads because he's got a

366
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,439
Speaker 1: great game plan. He's a smart coach. I texted my

367
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: old neighbor in Pennsylvania who is a die hard Colts fan.

368
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 1: He hates Frank Reich and like, who hates Frank Craig.

369
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,360
Speaker 1: He's like, keep brought in Wentz. Went is a bum.

370
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: I would agree with that, But what else did you

371
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 1: wanted to do? Rivers is retiring. You've got a playoff team.

372
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: You can't just like what Teddy Bridgewater and the Devil

373
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 1: you know over the Devil? You don't right and right

374
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: new Carson Wentz from his time in Philly. So bring

375
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: him in and he'll be a game manager. We'll make

376
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: him have safe and easy passes early, and then we'll

377
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: ride the running game the rest of the way to victory.

378
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz, I think was five of twelve Saturday night.

379
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: That's it. He don't need to throw five of twelve

380
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: fifty seven yards. That's it in an NFL game. And

381
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: you scored twenty seven points. So here's the problem. Wow,

382
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: is this twenty or nothing? Yeah? It was. So they

383
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 1: were up two after the third quarter. But then the

384
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: problem becomes, well, the defense is going to adjust. They

385
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,919
Speaker 1: know that they don't want that. The Colts do not

386
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: want to throw the ball. So we'll just stick man

387
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: coverage on everybody and we'll put seven eight in the box.

388
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: And if we can stop you or force you to

389
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: make Wentz have to have to throw the ball. Wentz

390
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: is more likely to turn it over, fumble, interception, something dumb,

391
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: because that's what he does. Wentz will screw it up

392
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: and low and behold. The Patriots get a touchdown and

393
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz threes a pick. Patriots start coming back there

394
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: within twenties seventeen, and then of course Jonathan Taylor breaks

395
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 1: off the big touchdown run to ice it. But I'm

396
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: just telling you guys right now, man, this is a dangerous,

397
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: dangerous Colts team. And we saw it against Tampa and

398
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 1: they couldn't finish because Wentz again and again, I I'm

399
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: of the belief that in the postseason, Wentz will end

400
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 1: up costing them. If the Colts can get a lead

401
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 1: on you, you're probably in some trouble. Um, he throws

402
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: a pick and the doors open, the Patriots come back.

403
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: I mean, I be really curious. Colts Chargers, Oh, that

404
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: would be a great game. Now, that's almost impossible unless

405
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: the Chargers really um get get things going here and

406
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,959
Speaker 1: getting one of the top seeds, because the Colts are

407
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: probably gonna be six or seven unless they win the division. Now,

408
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 1: the Titans, who are absolutely reeling, sounds like they're gonna

409
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 1: get a j Brown back this week. Sounds like um,

410
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: but that doesn't mean he's gonna be a percent coming off.

411
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: I r um. Titans have lost. They lost to the Texans,

412
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 1: they lost to the Patriots, they beat the Jags, and

413
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: they lost to the Steelers. They have the forty Niners

414
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: this week at home, and they're underdogs, and this is

415
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: one of the games I've already bet. I love the

416
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 1: Niners in this spot. Um, I laid the three. I

417
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: think San Fran wins it. San Fran is basically the

418
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: Cults of the NFC, a super dangerous team. The only

419
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: thing is I trust Jimmy Garoppolo a lot more than

420
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz. I think Jimmy Garoppolo at this point is

421
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: probably the most underrated quarterback in the league because people

422
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: hate him so much. I think he's a check down manager.

423
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: All he does is make place. It's like we forget

424
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,360
Speaker 1: earlier this season when he was absolute garbage and Trey

425
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: Lance was getting a look. Oh right, he Deebo Samuel's

426
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: hurt okay, and George Kittle was not there. And now

427
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 1: that they have the full arsenal, Oh, look at that,

428
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: Jimmy ge Okay, I see you. Even Brandon Aiyuk is

429
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 1: out of the doghouse and the rumors in San fran

430
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: about him, him and his ego ugly, but at full strength,

431
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 1: this Niners teams good. Now it is primetime game. We

432
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 1: know Jimmy Garoppolo has had some issues in primetime, not

433
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins issues, but issues. And um, I think that's

434
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 1: gonna be a good game. But I like the Niners

435
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: in that one. And now if you're the Titans and

436
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: you lose and the Colts keep winning, all of a sudden,

437
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: that big lead you had in the division in jeopardy,

438
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 1: they play the Dolphins on January second. Now they close

439
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 1: out with the Texans, which is a layup um, but

440
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: that Dolphins game will be tough, which gives me an

441
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 1: opportunity to pivot to the Miami Dolphins briefly. And I

442
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: know that the Dolphins hands to listen to this podcast

443
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 1: hate me because I'm a Jets fan and I always

444
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 1: ripped two. Uh, and you want to laugh that the

445
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: Dolphins beat the Jets while the Dolphins didn't cover the spread.

446
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 1: So I'll just start there. And this whole idea that

447
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,439
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins, who started one and seven or now

448
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: seven and seven, let's get excited, let's let's let's go two,

449
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: was getting us to the playoffs. I just want to

450
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 1: let you guys know, Duke Johnson won you that game.

451
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson, I think I'm not certain he may have

452
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 1: sold me a Christmas tree. Like three weeks ago. Somehow

453
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: he appears on the Miami Dolphins, and all of a sudden,

454
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson is carrying the load. I'm not even making

455
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: this out. Last year he was in Houston. Now he's

456
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: with the Miami Dolphins. And Duke Johnson has played two

457
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: games this season for the Dolphins. Only against the Jets.

458
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: That's it. Play the Jets in November. Then reappeared against

459
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: the Jets yesterday and had a hundred seven year argent

460
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 1: two touchdowns on the ground. Duke frigging Johnson. Unbelievable. That's

461
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: what you guys are all gasted up about. Remember to

462
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: a who was hot? Do do nice? Pick six there,

463
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 1: buddy boy? Yeah, let's just be real, guys. Come on.

464
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: Other than the win over Baltimore, which was Thursday night,

465
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,920
Speaker 1: short week, Okay, here's who two has one beaten during

466
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 1: the winning streak? Um, well, he didn't even beat Houston.

467
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 1: That with Jacobe percent to a game manage the Baltimore win.

468
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: He beat the Jets. He beat Carolina. I'm not even

469
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: certain if that was P J. Walker, Cam Newton. It

470
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 1: was Cam. It was Cam and he got benched. Right,

471
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 1: Cam will not be in the league next year. I

472
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: think we all agree on that. Then he beat the

473
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: New York Giants, okay, and then he beat the Jets.

474
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: So it's only six wins in a row. Wow. Whatever,

475
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,959
Speaker 1: They went from one and seven to seven and seven,

476
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 1: and Dolphins fans are excited. So now they'll go to

477
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 1: New Orleans. Now I need to you know have done this.

478
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,959
Speaker 1: I probably should this morning. I need to see how

479
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,359
Speaker 1: the Saints have done after these wins over the Tampa

480
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers because they travel Monday Night football Saints Dolphins.

481
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 1: And if this Saints defensive front and the cornerbacks play

482
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: the way that they did against Tom Brady, then two

483
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: is a dead man walking and I would like the

484
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: Saints here. Um let's see what the line is on

485
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 1: this one. I mean again, I was probably an overreaction

486
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: to the Saints looking incredible, but it looks like Saints

487
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 1: favored by three and a half. I don't know that

488
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: that whole a lot of people like Miami Elvison, but

489
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you right now somebody who's watched the

490
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 1: Dolphins closely. Um, yes, because I have been a not

491
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: a tour to a hater, but a doubter, and I'm

492
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 1: just not seeing all the stuff that everyone else is seen. Um.

493
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,959
Speaker 1: So before we get to the Lakers and Lebron, Yes,

494
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: I have to do something on Lebron. I need to

495
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,719
Speaker 1: go back. I forgot to give props to someone. So

496
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:01,239
Speaker 1: the kid Huntley for the Ravens was in oppressive, no

497
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: doubt against the Packers. He covered the spread, Tyler hunting

498
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: me loud in games. He's appeared this year three and

499
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 1: o against the spread. Not bad he has. He got

500
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,919
Speaker 1: to win over the Bears, and he nearly beat the Browns,

501
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: and he nearly beat the Packers. But if you want

502
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: to dig deep and you want to be a real

503
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: like NFL guy and know what's going on, you need

504
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: to know the name Greg Roman. He is the offensive

505
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens. And Greg Roman is the

506
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:34,199
Speaker 1: guy who essentially made Colin Kaepernick in San Francisco the

507
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 1: pistol offense. Colin Kaepernick, remember, was the second round pick.

508
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: Nobody wanted him in the first round. He was languishing

509
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: behind Alex Smith. And he comes in the league and boom,

510
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick is like, oh my gosh, this guy is ridiculous.

511
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: The running, in the passing, Greg Roman was a mastermind.

512
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 1: So then Greg Roman goes to Baltimore with Lamar Jackson.

513
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson again in the quarterback. Nobody want to remember

514
00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 1: he was gonna drop. He dropped to the end of

515
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: the first round ball some more's like, I will, let's

516
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: give us give us a Lamar because we get the

517
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: fifth year, we need, we want that quarterback, bring it,

518
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 1: bring it in here. And um, Greg Roman made Lamar

519
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 1: Jackson and NFL MVP. Did he not? I mean did

520
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: he not? And now Tyler Huntley, who know what he wanted?

521
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,360
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, Oh my gosh, this guy can

522
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:28,120
Speaker 1: play how he's a backup? I mean to the Carolina

523
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 1: Panthers makeup. I mean like that's the kind of reaction.

524
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 1: Like you look at the New York Giants. Their backup

525
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: is Mike Lennon. Mike. I would not trust Mike Glennon

526
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: to pick up my mail over winter break if I

527
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 1: was out of town. Okay, I would ask hell know what?

528
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: I trust him at quarterback? Okay? The Ravens brought in

529
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: Tyler Huntley. He's starting a game against the best team

530
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: in the league in the Packers, and nearly pull it

531
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: off the wind. He's keeping you competitive, He's I mean,

532
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: we want beat the Bears on the road. That's a

533
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 1: backup quarterback. And you just wonder, like, is this the

534
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 1: Greg Roman effect? Because you know Kaepernick kind of petered

535
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 1: out there at the end. Lamar hasn't, although he struggled

536
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: a little bit this year, and you could argue, yeah,

537
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: all these all these kind of running quarterbacks, they have

538
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 1: a shelf life and they get figured out. Blah blah blah.

539
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 1: I mean, the two coaches that impressed me most of

540
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: this weekend, we're Dennis Allen of the New Orleans Saints,

541
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,680
Speaker 1: the defensive coordinator for what he did to Brady, and

542
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,199
Speaker 1: of course Greg Roman, because I gotta be honest, I

543
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 1: did not think Tyler Huntley would be able to do

544
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 1: that against the Packers defense that just saw running quarterback,

545
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 1: they just saw justin fields last week. He ate him up.

546
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: And now it's like, oh, not only are the defensive

547
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: coaches on the Packers inept buffoons, but maybe they just

548
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: don't even have the defensive players to match up with

549
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: a running quarterback. Oh, let's take a look at the NFC.

550
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: Any really able body quarterbacks. Not Tom Brady, Oh, Kyler Murray. Huh,

551
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: we didn't have a great game against the Packers. And

552
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 1: now he doesn't have new Copkins Stafford, no, Jimmy g No,

553
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill, interesting, Dak Prescott not running as much this year,

554
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: which is a little quizzical. Quizzical, I don't even know

555
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: if that's the right word there. Um, it's puzzling why

556
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott's not running. But bottom line is the Packers

557
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 1: are clearly suspect to a running quarterback Jalen Hurts and

558
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: the Eagles. Can they sneak in throw a scare into

559
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: the Packers? I don't know, we'll see. It's early. You

560
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 1: don't want to make any bold declarations. Um, But overall,

561
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: I just loved Sunday in the NFL. UM. And before

562
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 1: I get to best bets for Monday and football, I'm

563
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: gonna spend just a couple of minutes. Well, let me

564
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: just see if there's any game any um, games that

565
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: I did not mention that I should have. I don't

566
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 1: care about Buffalo. I know I got some people tweeting

567
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 1: me about Detroit. Jason, you gotta talk about the Lions.

568
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: Do I really do? I really? I mean, they now

569
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 1: have the number two pick in the draft. Um, Jacksonville

570
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: has number one a in And by the way, all

571
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: these people saying Urban Meyer was the problem of er,

572
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: I mean, their offense looked like awful, couldn't do anything,

573
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: and the defense, Davis Mills lit him up. Rookie Davis

574
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 1: Mills look better than Trevor Lawrence. I don't want to

575
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: say Trevor Lawrences broken. But this is sad. Trevor Lawrence

576
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: played my favorite college football game ever that oh well,

577
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: top five let me just say top five the Ohio

578
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: State Clemson college football playoff game two years ago. Yeah,

579
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: right before the LSU game where Trevor Lawrence lost. I

580
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 1: mean that was one of the great games. Of course,

581
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: I was on the winning side of the bet there,

582
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: and Trevor Lawrence had like an amazing touchdown run in

583
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: the final drive down the field. It was like, that

584
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: was just a great game. Good look at the highlights

585
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: on YouTube. I'm gonna go watch it right after this.

586
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 1: It's just awesome. I love Trevor Lawrence. I'm a huge fan,

587
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: and he looks broken. This spirit is just crushed. This

588
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 1: looks terrible. I'm not gonna write him off. It's too talented.

589
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 1: Rest around the league. Oh, Dallas, one quick note, mild concern.

590
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: Just file it away. Mild concerned. Dallas offense again. No

591
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: Bueno decked through for two seventeen yards. That's it. It's

592
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 1: a Giants team that Justin Herbert just tore to shreds.

593
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: Here are the Cowboys touchdown drives, two plays, thirteen yards.

594
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: It was after a Mike Glennan interception and the other

595
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: Dallas touchdown five place twenty nine yards after the Giants

596
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: got tried to go front on fourth down. Okay, that's it.

597
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: Two touchdown drives of under thirty yards. Then they tossed

598
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: in a couple of field goals. Who cares? This is

599
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 1: a defensive lead team right now? Their defense is nasty.

600
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: I mean again, it's Mike Glennon and maybe we need

601
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: to see a little more when the quarterbacks. You've shut

602
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: down our Taysom Hill, Taylor Heinick slash Kyle Allen, and

603
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: Mike Glennon slash Jake from Well, it's gonna be probably

604
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: Taylor Henicky again the day to Christmas. Um many other

605
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 1: games that I missed. Gosh. I mean, if if Rob

606
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 1: g let me, I would go through every game. Nice

607
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: win for the Bengals, gutty win for the Steelers, who

608
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: are clearly a second half team. One of the stats

609
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: you need to know last, damn it. I've got so

610
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: many notes here, guys. I'm just such a nerd when

611
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: it comes to some of this stuff. Last four is

612
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: four or four games or five? Okay, so the Steelers

613
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: have gone four straight games with zero first half touchdowns,

614
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: first time that's happened in twenty five years. In the

615
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: last five games, the Steelers have been outscored ninety one

616
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: to nineteen in the first half. Okay, let that sinking

617
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 1: nineteen Now, who is that on? You could easily pin

618
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: it on Ben Oh he stinks. Well, he's coming back

619
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 1: on the fourth in the second half, isn't He came

620
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: back against the Vikings, came back against the Titans. I

621
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 1: think that's an indictment of Mike Tomlin and the offensive coordinator.

622
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: Is it not? When you can do nothing offensively with

623
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: a week to prepare, not good? Not good at all?

624
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 1: And I know most of most of the Blaine is

625
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 1: gonna go to Big Bend because I joked earlier this

626
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 1: season he looks like a refrigerator back there in the pocket.

627
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: He's so immobile and just he just it just looks sad.

628
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: There's a problem. I don't. I don't think the Steelers

629
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 1: are that good, but um man, their first halves are ugly.

630
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 1: Um So, yeah, I think that's just about every game.

631
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm not going to talk more about the

632
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: The Falcons lost to the Niners. Um quick quick, uh.

633
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: Fantasy football So my son is in two leagues. One

634
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: where you know, I took the reins and with the commissioner,

635
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: and he had some injuries. He started off three and

636
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: one and then it went in the tank, so he

637
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: did he missed the playoffs. Then the other league, he's

638
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: facing the number one seed and my buddies the commission

639
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 1: and you know, they have like I think it's a

640
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 1: sixteen team league, so you know, let me just check.

641
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: It was like late in the season and I, uh,

642
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 1: you know, things weren't going well from my my son

643
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: was like in second place and all of a sudden, yeah, sorry,

644
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 1: fourteen team league. And I'm like, he's like in in

645
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 1: eight heading into the final weekend, I'm like, oh jeez,

646
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: what do I tell Bryce? He's gonna miss the playoffs?

647
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: And both of his fantasy leagues, I didn't even know

648
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 1: that eight teams made the playoffs. So he gets in

649
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 1: despite a loss last week, and he's all geeked. So

650
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,479
Speaker 1: you know, he's like, oh, we got We're gonna do fine,

651
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 1: you know, we go what are we gonna do? Bla

652
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: blah blah. And so he's facing the number one seed,

653
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: his buddy who's in his class and he's leading and

654
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: almost certainly gonna win, and he's just like, who should

655
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 1: we tend? His dad should be bragged to his dead

656
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: because there's like winner breaks so the kids cannot go

657
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 1: to school and like flex I won the Fantasy first round. Seriously,

658
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: all they do is play football at recess. Um my

659
00:34:58,239 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: son gives me all the oh yeah, dad, we started

660
00:34:59,920 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. It's like five on five. It's awesome,

661
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: and um so he's taken down the number one seed. Uh,

662
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,399
Speaker 1: nice kid, I know the dad, big time surfer, golf

663
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 1: for a good guy. And um so my son's up.

664
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: I know you care by ten with Nick Chubb going

665
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: tonight against Vegas and his buddy has the Minnesota Vikicks kicker,

666
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 1: so it's basically a lock. And because you know, hey,

667
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: this in my podcast, I feel like bragging about myself

668
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 1: in the big money league. I mean good shape, but

669
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 1: not great shape. I'm the four seed and I'm up

670
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: eighteen on the five. But there's many guys left, like

671
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 1: I have Dalvin Cook, Josh Jacobs, Gosh, I hate Josh Jacobs,

672
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,840
Speaker 1: He's so so frustrating. And then I have the Eagles kicker.

673
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,719
Speaker 1: I'm up eighteen. He opponent has Justin Jefferson, who's probably

674
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,240
Speaker 1: gonna have a monster game against his beat up Bears secondary.

675
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: I'll get to the best bed in a second. And

676
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 1: he has the Mooney, the Bears receiver. Um. But the

677
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: good thing is Mooney really only clicks with Dalton. If

678
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,439
Speaker 1: you notice, Fields and Mooney don't much damage together. Plus

679
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson, I think it's back. And then he has Montgomery, Uh,

680
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: that could get ugly. And then he has Davante Smith.

681
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: Actually I'm leading, but it says I have fifty chance

682
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: to win. And then in my final fantasy league, yes,

683
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,800
Speaker 1: I'm in the playoffs in three and I'm really excited

684
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 1: about it because I think we're probably gonna win all three.

685
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 1: I have a chance to win. I got Cooper Cup

686
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 1: and the Eagles. He's got Metcalf where shod Penny and

687
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson. Justin Jefferson is just gonna screw me, isn't he.

688
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 1: I just know it's coming, all right. I know this

689
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: is a lot of NFL. You want to get to

690
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: the best bet, but I have to just can I

691
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 1: just do two minutes on Lebron real quick? Just humor me?

692
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: So the Lakers lose Anthony Davis on Friday Friday, a

693
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: buddy of mine's all geeked. He's like, I think I'm

694
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 1: going to the Tuesday uh Lakers sun skime. So I

695
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,920
Speaker 1: text him Friday night. Looks like there's gonna be no

696
00:36:56,040 --> 00:37:00,200
Speaker 1: A D A D Who I joked on? I think

697
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 1: it was on like one, you know, like you to

698
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: get your followers up on Instagram. If you go on

699
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 1: like I don't know, Fox Sports and leave a comment,

700
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,240
Speaker 1: then all these people will see you because you're verified

701
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: and then far to follow you. So sometimes I'll leave

702
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: comments and on one post I don't know where it was,

703
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: maybe House of Highlights or something, Ball is Life whatever,

704
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 1: I I responded, you know eight, it was like something

705
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 1: about Anthony Davis may have gotten hurt, and I just

706
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 1: put a D equals always down because he's always down

707
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: on the ground. I mean, it's frustrated. And it got

708
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,840
Speaker 1: like five thousand likes or something, so I got all

709
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: these new followers, and I guess, you know, people think

710
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 1: I'm like a Lakers hater because I was making fun

711
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: of Anthony Davis. I'm not making fun of his awesome player,

712
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: ridiculous talent. Is he frustrating because he likes to float

713
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 1: to the perimeter and shoot jumpers, of course, but you

714
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: know he doesn't want to bang inside. This guy grew

715
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: up He was like a six five guard in Chicago

716
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,399
Speaker 1: and then grew like maybe like a sixth three guard,

717
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,479
Speaker 1: and then grew like eight inches. Honestly, Gottle read about

718
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: it like his junior senior year, like eight inches, became

719
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: the number one recruiting in the country. So he's like

720
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 1: a perimeter guy. He's gotta handle, he's got a nice

721
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,360
Speaker 1: touch on his jumper. He doesn't want to bang inside.

722
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I don't even like going inside. But he's

723
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 1: down for four weeks now, and you know what four

724
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 1: weeks he means with Andy Davis five or six. So

725
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:18,760
Speaker 1: they're gonna be in some trouble to make the playoffs.

726
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 1: And I'm not even joking. That's not an exaggeration, that's

727
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,280
Speaker 1: not a hot take. The reality is their best player

728
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 1: is thirty six year old Lebron who turns thirty seven

729
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: in like two weeks. So Lebron, what does he do

730
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,839
Speaker 1: in their first game without a D He goes and says,

731
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna show everybody I got this against the Bulls

732
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: Sunday night, really good game. Lebron has eight. In the

733
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,959
Speaker 1: final minute, Demarja rose and drove on him and Lebron

734
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: just blocked it. It was awesome. This guy is ridiculous.

735
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: And then the Lakers lost, and I'm just telling you.

736
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 1: You look at that box score and you're like, wait,

737
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: what is this Isaiah Thomas? Yeah? That idea Thomas. He's

738
00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,240
Speaker 1: been with the Lakers for like, I don't know, ninety

739
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,800
Speaker 1: six hours. I think he's probably living at a hotel.

740
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 1: He hasn't even unpacked his suitcase. He started against the

741
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: Bulls and played thirty two minutes. What he was this guy?

742
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm stunned. Isaiah Thomas was not in

743
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 1: the league five minutes ago and now he's starting for

744
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 1: the Lakers. Their second Lady's course Sunday night against the

745
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 1: Bulls was thirty seven year old Carmelo Anthony DeAndre Jordan

746
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: is unplayable. I don't know what they're doing, Like, just stop,

747
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 1: just I no, Russell Westbrook, who is just I mean, listen,

748
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 1: I know what he did in Washington. I know he's

749
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 1: a triple double guy. He's a volume guy. You've got Lebron,

750
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: you don't need a volume guy Russ nine baskets, six turnovers,

751
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 1: thirty eight minutes. Like, what's he doing? He's not setting screens.

752
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: We know that. We we know that that's one of

753
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: the things he does not do. Does he move off

754
00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: the ball ship? No, So what is he doing because basical,

755
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 1: give me the ball, I'm in a drive and choo,

756
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a bad shot. I'm gonna miss a

757
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 1: three or brick something. I know he tries hard. People

758
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: like him, but man, and and we've been saying this

759
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:13,360
Speaker 1: roster is a mess. But when healthy with Lebron and

760
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 1: a d and when they get Kendrick Nunn back, ha

761
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 1: ha ha, Jason stopped talking about Kendrick Nunn. Guys, I

762
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: don't know if they're god. I don't know if they're

763
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: a locked to make the playoffs. This is not Hot

764
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,840
Speaker 1: Take Central. This is I should say, this is not

765
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: hot take Happy Hour, which is one of the cool

766
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,439
Speaker 1: things that I did in Fox Sports. We might still

767
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 1: do it. I don't know hot Take Happy Hours. It

768
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 1: was just fun. I'm just telling you. They're in trouble.

769
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: They're sixteen and fifteen, I think, and they got smoked

770
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 1: by the Tea Wolves. The other night. I guess technically

771
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: this would be their second game with Oh no, a

772
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 1: d got hurt against the Timberwolves. That's right. And you

773
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: look at the Timberwolves and they want again Sunday. Um

774
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,839
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis is aunt Anthony Edwards. I'm sorry, isn't COVID

775
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: By the way, Anthony Edwards is the absolute terror on

776
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 1: the word. Oh my god, he's fun to watch. He

777
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: talks some trash too. I kind of like him. D'Angelo

778
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,479
Speaker 1: Russell was the second pick, like I don't know, four

779
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,760
Speaker 1: teams ago, he was a Laker, Um karl Antony Towns six,

780
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards, twenty, Malik Beasley, who's a nice shooter, twenty five,

781
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: D'Angel Russell. And then you look at the Lakers and

782
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 1: their top four players are all like, way older than thirty.

783
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 1: I mean, the Lakers against the MAVs had to rely

784
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: on Wayne Ellington to bring them home, and Austin Reeves

785
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: against the Bold Lakers had I think two chances to

786
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:35,919
Speaker 1: tie it, and Wayne Ellington took both shots. I'm gonna

787
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 1: repeat Wayne Ellington took both shots. When was the last

788
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: time that guy ever had a big shot? I got

789
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 1: North Carolina, I don't know, guys. Somebody joked on Twitter,

790
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,760
Speaker 1: I forgot to give that. I should give this guy credit,

791
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: but he said, is Lebron headed back to the Calves

792
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: at the All Star break? Because the Calves are good? Uh,

793
00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 1: guys are really good with Garland and um the rookie

794
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 1: mobili Um, it's wild Lakers. Listen. You don't want to overreact,

795
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: but I'm just straight up. They're in trouble because you

796
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:11,959
Speaker 1: put too much on Burton, on Lebron and he gets

797
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,880
Speaker 1: injured again, you just forget it. It's over. They're not

798
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,160
Speaker 1: going to the playoffs if he gets hurt. So I

799
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: don't know what the solution is, but pain is on

800
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:22,919
Speaker 1: the way. Al Right, guys, let's get to the best

808
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 1: quickly for the Monday night football games that we've run

809
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,800
Speaker 1: long because listen, it was a phenomenal weekend in sports,

810
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:59,440
Speaker 1: crazy phenomenal. All that uh first came up tonight is

811
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders visiting Cleveland. Now, this is the

812
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 1: game that was that was going bonkers on the gambling lines.

813
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: So Cleveland was seven, then it came back down to six.

814
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 1: Then everybody on Cleveland got COVID. Literally every single person

815
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: tested positive. And then the Raiders were favored, and I

816
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,720
Speaker 1: think the Raiders were favored by as much as three, okay,

817
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 1: and then they pushed the game back and then all

818
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,360
Speaker 1: these Brown players come back and now it's like, oh,

819
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 1: Cleveland is now favored by three. Listed if I didn't

820
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 1: get involved in this because I had no idea when

821
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 1: the game was gonna be played, or I mean, everybody

822
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:32,359
Speaker 1: thought it was just gonna be Sunday and they were

823
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,240
Speaker 1: just gonna force the Browns to try out of practice

824
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 1: squad guys. And of course I didn't touch anything on this,

825
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 1: but I ended up late actually Saturday, when the contest

826
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 1: picks were in. They had moved the game, and I said,

827
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 1: you know what effort, I'm taking Cleveland, So I have

828
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 1: Cleveland and the contest. I did not bet it on

829
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 1: the side yet I kind of listen, I'm I'm still

830
00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 1: waiting to see. Like we thought Waller wasn't gonna play

831
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:59,240
Speaker 1: when the game was supposed to be on Sunday, and

832
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: now is all are gonna be able to play now

833
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:02,839
Speaker 1: that the extra day to rehab. Now he hasn't played

834
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 1: in a couple of weeks in the offense has been crap,

835
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: But I don't know, Like, honestly, I have no clue.

836
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 1: Two hours from now, we could hear Stefanski's on the

837
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 1: sideline and Baker starting, and you know, the Browns are

838
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 1: only gonna be down three dudes instead of fifteen, So

839
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,879
Speaker 1: it's it's really tough to handicap again like this, All

840
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,799
Speaker 1: I'll say is the Raiders offense has been total garbage

841
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,879
Speaker 1: since Waller went down and they lost Henry Rugs and oh,

842
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 1: let's not forget Jon Gruden kind of a big time offensive. Mind.

843
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 1: We can dispute just how good he is, but he's

844
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 1: been hella good with the Raiders. So this is Cleveland

845
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 1: or passed for me um. The total seems just criminally low.

846
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:39,959
Speaker 1: Come on, forty one. Like, I know the Brown's offense

847
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,479
Speaker 1: is good, is it that good? I I would lean

848
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:46,280
Speaker 1: to the over here, but I definitely am on Cleveland,

849
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: so um, I need them in the contest given how

850
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,359
Speaker 1: bad that freaking Packers beat was, and then the other game,

851
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: which has the makings of a blow. But listen, so

852
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: Mahny did this weekend and it didn't materialize. The fight

853
00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: Kings are favored by six and a half. We might

854
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: see a touchdown because of the Brown situation due to

855
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:06,360
Speaker 1: COVID protocols. Apparently three fourths of their secondary, which was

856
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 1: not good to begin with. I ain't gonna play tonight

857
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 1: because they tested positive. Then you factor in, um, the

858
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,720
Speaker 1: position coaches. We don't know if they're gonna return. And again,

859
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,239
Speaker 1: you know this is coming out early this morning. Um

860
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:22,280
Speaker 1: by ten am. We may hear otherwise. But again, heading

861
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: into this game, it looks like the Bears are gonna

862
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:28,359
Speaker 1: have nobody defensively. Now can Justin Fields just dropped back

863
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,880
Speaker 1: and run around in Minnesota defense that's been kind of

864
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,480
Speaker 1: hit and miss. I mean, Chicago is at home whatever

865
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 1: home field advantage is worth. I don't know for me,

866
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,239
Speaker 1: it's a Minnesota or nothing, but the world seems to

867
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 1: be on Minnesota. Justin Jefferson, of course I'm facing in fantasy,

868
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: so I don't really want to bet them and have

869
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 1: to root for him. And this is my big money league.

870
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 1: You know, five buy in. It's like a good Listen,

871
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 1: you finished first or second. It's not a bad little

872
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,839
Speaker 1: piece of chump change, you know. Um you take that.

873
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying I'm gonna go do anything great,

874
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,880
Speaker 1: but we do like to travel after the football season,

875
00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 1: and you know he's gonna pay for part of the vacation.

876
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:01,400
Speaker 1: You when you're a fan se league. Um, so I

877
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: just I'm gonna stay off the Vikings, but I definitely

878
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: think there's side. If you're gonna get involved in this,

879
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 1: it's got to be Minnesota. Problem is Zimmer loves to

880
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 1: play down to the competition always and it's so frustrating.

881
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,799
Speaker 1: I bet them several times this year, Um, I think

882
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: both times against the Lions, and of course Zimmer just

883
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 1: you know, plays with this food there for a couple

884
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:21,959
Speaker 1: of hours and next thing you know, oh my gosh,

885
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:23,919
Speaker 1: it's a game in four minutes left to the fourth quarter,

886
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,439
Speaker 1: and you're like, how the hell did this happen? And

887
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 1: you know it's a Kirk Cousins effect. I also have

888
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook in fantasy on my team. Uh, you know,

889
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 1: and I don't. I have done some fantasy in this pot.

890
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 1: I don't want to make it all about it, but like,

891
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 1: it is weird when the fantasy playoffs are here, survivor

892
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 1: and gambling, and then of course you know the contest

893
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 1: like it got a lot cooking here. It gets really

894
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 1: tough late in the season and you end up rooting

895
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: against um things you should be rooting for. It just

896
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 1: gets wacky, wacky, wild kool Aid style. But the good

897
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 1: news is the good news. Tuesday, there's two more NFL games.

898
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:02,359
Speaker 1: I'm loving it, of course, you guys know, Um it's

899
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,319
Speaker 1: Eagles are everything for me. I will be breaking out

900
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:10,399
Speaker 1: my um who's a good nineteen eighties Eagles? And if

901
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 1: Harold Carmichael will that bring a bell for anyone? I'm

902
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 1: probably not. It's a little old. I'll probably we were

903
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 1: Harold Carmichael Jersey in the first quarter, second quarter, I

904
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 1: might tee up um. Maybe the late Reggie White, Um

905
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:27,839
Speaker 1: the legend Um. I don't know who's the guy, uh

906
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,439
Speaker 1: what they called fred x Freddie some something, or whether

907
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 1: I should google it. But if it's some Eagles fan

908
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 1: will say, oh, Jay, I know who you're talking about,

909
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,680
