I'm your host, Richard 16 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: Sherman here with my guy Mitch Eisenstein. Football is a 17 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: crazy game, Mitchell. Richard, It's another Sunday. You're sitting back 18 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,279 Speaker 1: and join the game watching it on your couch. Drama 19 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,119 Speaker 1: occurs all over the NFL. Let's start. Let's start from 20 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: the top. I mean, we had a big, big game 21 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: this week. Everyone's talking about it, potential a f C 22 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: championship game. You know, preview here the Bills against the Chiefs. 23 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: Bills comes out on top. I mean, what stands out 24 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: to you rich about this game? Well, Mitchell was too. 25 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: It was two great teams. Um. I didn't expect it 26 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: to be as close. I didn't expect the Chiefs to 27 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: take it down into the wire and make Buffalo drive 28 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: down the game for the game like they did in 29 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: the playoffs. But you know, you gotta give credit to 30 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: Andy Reid and the enemy and their staff and their 31 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: defensive staff. You know, they found a way to keep 32 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: Josh Allen and the boys in check. I mean, Stefan 33 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: Dick still had a game, gave David still had a game. 34 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: You know, let's not get crazy here, but we showed 35 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: we saw the value of Von Miller. He's a well 36 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: why they brought Vanni and you know two secs Von 37 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: Ghost Ghost, You're gonna bring Von and he's gonna do it. 38 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: Um to Ron Johnson with the game sailing interception, that 39 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: was huge. Um, that's a difference in the game. This 40 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: game always comes down to it. But Jou Juice Smith 41 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: Schuster had his best game as Kansas City chief. Uh. 42 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: You give a lot of credit for them. They're spreading 43 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: the ball around. Patrick Mahomes continue to do do what 44 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: he does, but some of those plays came back to 45 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: bite him in the butt. You saw earlier in the 46 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: season he scrambled to his right, threw back across his 47 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: body um to Jerick McKinnon for a touchdown. Earlier in 48 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: the season on the goal line, and on almost exact 49 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: same play he had done some crazy magic and threw 50 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: a touchdown. This time he used that magic a little 51 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 1: bit too often. Through it to the back of the 52 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: end zone interception, and you, this is a game. You 53 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: can't waste trips to the red zone. He had to 54 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: come out with some kind of points he wasn't able to. 55 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: I think that was a difference in the game. Rich. 56 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: It came down to here again, you thought, you thought again, Hey, 57 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: Mahomes got the final possession here, He's just gonna figure 58 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: out a way, and that the Bills d finally got 59 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: the better of him. Mahomes is now three and two 60 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 1: against Josh Allen Rich Is this the best QB rivalry 61 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: we've seen since Brady Manning. Yeah, hold on, hold on now, Mitchell. 62 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: It's it like we go too fast to annoint kings 63 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: and then the way doing it too fast like great 64 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: QB wherever we let's appreciated. These two are the future 65 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: of football. They're great, they're they're the president of football. 66 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: But there was Tom Brady Manning. There's Tom Brady. Aaron, 67 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: there's Aaron Manning, Like like there's Drew Brees. Aaron, there's 68 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: Drew Brees, Tom, there's you know, there's Matt Ryan, Tom, 69 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: that's you know that. Let's be it's easy, easy, you know, 70 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: let's not get too crazy. But right now these two 71 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: are are two of the best quarterbacks in football. Anytime 72 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: they line it up together, it's gonna be history. I mean, 73 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 1: it seems like it's gonna be like this for the 74 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: next decade. Rich, I mean, what when is it ever 75 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: gonna stop? I mean, we've seen my homes playing at 76 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: m VP levels. Now, Josh Allen, I mean, this is 77 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: peak performance for Josh Allen. You were talking about it 78 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: going into the season. You love Josh Allen. You thought 79 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: he was gonna make a big step. You thought the 80 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: Bills were gonna be Super Bowl favorites. He's showing it 81 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: right now. Rich is he the unquestioned best QB in 82 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: the NFL right now? Best player? There's no unquestioned best 83 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: right now, mister. There's too many people playing great football. 84 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: That's like the cornerback debate, Like they're like, who's the 85 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: best corner in football? It's like it depends on which 86 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: week you ask. You know, you get Slay Slay one 87 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: week you get you get I mean, right now there's 88 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: some rookies sauces playing at a high level um, which 89 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: is crazy. Then you got Pat Surtan. Then you still 90 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: got Ramsey in the in the wakes and J. C. 91 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: Jackson isn't gonna go quietly into the night. Xavian Howard, 92 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: you know, he's had some rough weeks, but you know 93 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: he'll be back and he'll be strapping um, you know, 94 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: so you just you just never know. And then you 95 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: got Stingley out in Houston who's been playing well, but 96 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: he's on a bad team, so it gets kind of 97 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: kind of overshadowed. And then don't forget about the former 98 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: defensive Player of the Year in in Indianapolis, and they 99 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: found a way to get out of there. They're sneakily 100 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: three to on one, and nobody's talking about it through Yeah, 101 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: they they've been won some big games of late too, Rich, 102 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: But you know, here's the game everyone's talking about home 103 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: field advantage right for the playoffs, Rich, And this is 104 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: a huge opportunity for the Bills to separate themselves. I mean, 105 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: next week is another huge game for its Cansa Chiefs. 106 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: They're gonna have to go in on the road against 107 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: your forty Niners. Rich, It doesn't get any easier. Whereas 108 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: the Bills hope to host the Packers. You know, it's 109 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: it's one of those games, Rich, This is that point 110 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: of the season where teams start to separate themselves. And 111 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: speaking of your forty nine is Rich? Oh Mitchell, speaking 112 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: of your forty niners, Which I know there's a lot 113 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: of excuses to be had, but I I know you 114 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: don't want to use too many of them. Atlanta is 115 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: a tough squad, but but they really controlled this game. Fourteen. 116 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,679 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on the outcome and what's ahead for the Niners. 117 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: The San Francisco forty Niners are an elite team. They 118 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: will be an elite team when it's all said and done. 119 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 1: But nobody can be an elite. When you lose both 120 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: your starting tackles, both your starting corners, three starting defensive alignment, 121 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: you're you're starting safety, you're starting quarterback, and a starting linebacker. 122 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: I don't know too many teams that have the ability 123 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: to still be lead after all of that. In Atlanta 124 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: has been playing really good football. Um Marcus Mariota is 125 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: being very safe with the football. He's thirteen and fourteen 126 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: for not huge numbers, but that's all you need to 127 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: do manage the game he had. He also had six 128 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: rushes for fifty yards. That was the difference in the 129 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: game he had. He was using his legs that made 130 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: the difference. They had a hundred and sixty eight yards 131 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: rushing as a team. I can't imagine the last time 132 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: in San Francisco Fort Niners gave up that many yards rushing. 133 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: But when you don't have Erica Armstead in the middle, 134 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: you don't have both, so you don't have those big times, 135 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: big playmakers. You can't play man and man coverage on 136 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: the outside. So it changed the way that that Demiko 137 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: has to call the deep and then you're not gonna 138 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: have success. I mean, Jimmy Garoppolo played a solid game 139 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: but he had some costly turnovers, one before the half 140 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:07,559 Speaker 1: where he's just trying to give deep ball a chance, 141 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: but later on the game you can't. You can't have 142 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: that interception. But Brandon Iuk had a good game, but 143 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: there was too many, way too many drops in the game, 144 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: way too many self inflicted wounds. But I still believe 145 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: in him. I still believe the forty Diners are gonna 146 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: gonna compete at the end. Just like last year. They'll 147 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: find a way to get healthy at the right time. 148 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: Trent Williams is gonna be out for the season. McGlinchey 149 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: probably has a calf, gonna make it tough to to 150 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: make it back for the Kansas City Chiefs game. The corners, 151 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: the growing injury, I mean, Emmanuel Moseley won't be back. 152 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: We don't know what's gonna happen with our various more 153 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: that growing as always. You know, you don't know when 154 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: bos is coming back. So it's looking grim right now. 155 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: But I still think they'll find their way into the 156 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: playoffs and and and they'll make it interesting. They get 157 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: healthy by the playoffs. Nobody want to see him. Well, 158 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: there's a couple of blessings that come out of this rich. 159 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: I mean, for one, the NFC West is turning into 160 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: that I guess NFC East what you thought to be 161 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: dumpster fire. I mean, there's no team that's really differentiated themselves. 162 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: A bunch of three and three squads right now, you know. 163 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: And the second part of that, the Niners are gonna 164 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: be able to build some depth here. I mean, they're 165 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,679 Speaker 1: getting the injuries. If there's any time to have injuries happen, 166 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: I guess it's at the beginning of the season. You know, 167 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna get these guys back, Like you said, hopefully 168 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: some of the backups can can elevate their game and 169 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: take this team to the next level. Once those starters 170 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: do come back, well, they're gonna take some risks. They're 171 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: gonna have to take some risks. Kyle Shanahan is gonna 172 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: have to open the play book up and they're gonna 173 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: have to give creative because they're gonna have to score 174 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: some points. You know, they can't lean on the defense 175 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: as they have been in the past. They're gonna have 176 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: to put up thirty thirty five points a game in 177 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 1: order to be competitive in these ball games. Because they 178 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: have Kansas City Chiefs and ain't playing no games sticking 179 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: in the NFC West Rich the Seahawks. I'm gonna start 180 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 1: it off a one name. I know you love them, 181 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: Tyreek Wooling. Tell me about first off, Mitchell his fourth 182 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: interception in his fourth game, like he's playing silly right now. 183 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: In Mitchell, it's it doesn't even make sense. Four interceptions 184 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: and four games and in his expectation. I was sitting 185 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: on the couch with my wife and I said, hey, 186 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 1: Kyler had thrown the ball his way and they got 187 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: a completion. I said, keep trying the kid. He's gonna 188 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: have a book. It's a reason he has three of 189 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: them in three games. And he threw the nine ball 190 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: on him. You do not throw a nine ball in Seattle. 191 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: In Seattle. Just I had made that point before personally, 192 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: and now we got the kid making it for you. Now, 193 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: do not throw the nine ball in Seattle. He runs 194 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: four to there's nobody who's gonna outrun him. He's jumping 195 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: up in the air. He's got he got long arms, 196 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: he got good hands. He's gonna bring it down as 197 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: four and four weeks looking like the defensive rookie of 198 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: the year. Then you got your boy Michigan State guy 199 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker Jr. There was a lot of concern once 200 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: where Shot Penny. That went down with Shot Penny is 201 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: the lead back, has been playing great football, unfortunate season 202 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: ending injury, um Kenneth Walker has come through in a 203 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: big way. Richard, I'll say this with Rashad Penny and 204 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker the third, I think a lot of Seahawk 205 00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: fans thought they were gonna have that thunder and lightning combo. Newsflash, 206 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: Seahawk fans, you got that thunder enlightening in Kenneth Walker. 207 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy runs sub four four, was the 208 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: king of breaking tackles at Michigan State. Really should have 209 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: been in the Heisman race more. I thought it was 210 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: the biggest sham that he wasn't invited to the ceremony. 211 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: But but rich this is a guy, much like Marshawn, 212 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: doesn't like to taco a whole lot. Let's just let 213 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: his play on the field do the talking. And now 214 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: the Seahawk team is three and three. They're gritty, rich 215 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: they're scrapping out wins and there was really no point 216 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: in this game outside of the phantom block punt resulting 217 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: in a touchdown where it was even close. Rich, I mean, 218 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: the Seahawks handled this game. There's six games enriched, they're 219 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 1: they're five hundred and they're only getting better and better. 220 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: And people saw said Pete Carroll was crazy when he 221 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: said we're not rebuilding, we're reloading. Well, nobody could ever 222 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: imagined they have would have one of the best rookie 223 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: classes in all of football and maybe in the last 224 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 1: you know, five or ten years um International Football League. 225 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: You got two starting tackles out of it. Crazy. If 226 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: you just left with that, people would be like blown away. Hey, 227 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: this is great. You got a starting corner and not 228 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: just the starting corner, starting corner that is the front 229 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: runner for defensive Rookie of the year right now. You 230 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: gotta start in Nickel and Kobe Bryant, who has not one, 231 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 1: not two, not three, but like it's running, made four 232 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: forced fumbles on the year, and every time, every game 233 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: it's almost like you're expecting it. Kobe Bryant is gonna 234 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: make a huge play and change the game, and he 235 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: has done that weekend week out. He forced the fumber 236 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: on Kyler Murray this year. And then you say that's enough, 237 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: you got you got four players out of the draft class. 238 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: That's enough, like no more needed. But no. Then you 239 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: get the running back Kenneth Walker Jr. To say, hey, 240 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna secure the bag with this running back. And 241 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: he's doing a great job. I know Pete Carroll and 242 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: and John Snyder are over the moon about this, but 243 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: let's talk about Kyler Murray. Because he ran the ball 244 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: ten times for a hundred yards. He twenty three or 245 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: thirty seven, like, had a solid game for two twenty two. 246 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: I believe in a pick because you don't try Wreek. 247 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: You didn't learn from the other three games that he 248 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: got picks that you don't try Reek. But he had 249 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: a study clause in his contract, and we got him 250 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: next week, Mitchell. We got him next week when they 251 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,439 Speaker 1: played the Saints on cats US on Amazon Prime at 252 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: TNF Tonight starts at seven pm Eastern. We're gonna be 253 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: covering the Saints in the Arizona Cardinals in Phoenix. But 254 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: he's struggling, He's not seeing the field. Well, Richard, this 255 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: is a team. We talked about it the last couple 256 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: of weeks. This is a team without an identity right now, 257 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: rich I mean, they had a hot start last year. 258 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: You know, everyone thought they would be upper echelon team 259 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 1: in the NFL, and then they just went stagnant. And 260 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: they didn't just go into the valley Rich. I mean 261 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,959 Speaker 1: that they continued to go deeper and deeper and deeper 262 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: into that value. Everyone thinks they're just gonna snap out 263 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: of it. When did they snap out of it when 264 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 1: they get d hot back? I don't know. I don't 265 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 1: know if the hops fixes his vision problems because he's 266 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: not seeing the field, Mitchell. There are open receivers. When 267 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: there's open receivers, he hits them. Sometimes sometimes he doesn't. 268 00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 1: There are plays that are obviously schemed up for a 269 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: certain receivers to be open. He's not even taking his 270 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: eyes there. You see it from the All twenty two. 271 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: You're like, hey, I can see what they were drawing 272 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: up and the guy they were drawn up to be 273 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: open is open and he's not hitting him, Mitchell. And 274 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: that's where you're like, hey, like maybe there was a 275 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: reason they were like, stop playing video games and study 276 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: your playbook, because you can't have those If you're paying 277 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: your quarterback forty eight million dollars, you don't expect him 278 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: to miss not only wide open receivers, but scheme doping 279 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: receivers where you're like, hey, it's just hey, we're gonna 280 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 1: circle this guy, We're throwing it to him, just don't 281 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: miss him. And he doesn't even look at that guy. 282 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury cannot be happy. You know who's really not happy, Mitchell? 283 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Mitchell, goodness gracious, they thought, hey, 284 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: we gotta lay up in the Pittsburgh Steelers. They've been 285 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: beat by everybody. You said it, You said it a 286 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. These ain't golf. There's no gimmes 287 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,839 Speaker 1: in football. Everyone had this game penciled in as a 288 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: w including yourself, including me. Any ask anyone guaranteed when 289 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay what happened? Rich? I mean, how concerned would 290 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: you be being in that locker room right now? There 291 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: is not a player in the National Football League with 292 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: more credibility than Tom Brady, Mitchell, not one, not anybody 293 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: on the International Football League had can stand on their 294 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: reputation more than Tom Brady has. With that being said, 295 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: Tom he missed practice for a wedding, which you ain't 296 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: that bad, Mitchell. It's kind of crazy, but it's not 297 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: that bad because it's Tom. Like if you said, if 298 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: you said Kylin Murray Mr. Practice for a wedding, we 299 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: got problems, Mitchell. If you said Gino Smith Mr. Practice 300 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: for a wedding, Mitchell, we got problems. Even if you 301 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: said Josh Allen, was that a wedding and he missed 302 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: a practice in a game week, we got problems. Tom 303 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: Brady can get away with it because he's the goat. 304 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: Let's not be let's not be silly. But when you lose, Mitchell, 305 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: when you lose the game and you only throw one 306 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: touchdown past and then you're cussing out your offensive line, Mitchell, 307 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: you know it's tough. It's tough because because those guys 308 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: were at practice that day. Those guys are at practice 309 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: that day and every other day. And how much Richard 310 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: you being a player, I don't know if you've dealt 311 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: with similar situations to that and throughout your playing career, 312 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: But how much is the proverbial leader of your team, 313 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: the quarterback being absent from practice. We already know he's 314 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: taking Wednesday's off, Like, how much does that impact you 315 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: in your desire as a defender? Like? Break down that mindset. 316 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if it affects that the defense and 317 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: what they do. They they got to be better, and 318 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: I'm sure Bowls is telling them that like that doesn't 319 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: have an effect on the defense. You're playing a rookie 320 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 1: and Kenny Kenny Pickett, you're not. They knocked him out 321 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: of the game. And then miss Robinsky. We we've talked 322 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: about him throughout the year, but he went out there 323 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: and execute. He was not for I mean, nine for 324 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: twelve and touchdown, no interceptions. Trace Claypool finally got involved 325 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: a huge catch on third and eleven the Silver game. 326 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: Like hell, they don't only had one t d by 327 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 1: receiver this season and it happened in this game. And 328 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: that's that's insanity. So so you're concerned with the defense. 329 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: I'm not putting it all on Tom and saying, hey, 330 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: Tom not not coming to practice because of winning. It 331 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: made the defense. But no, no, heck no, we're not 332 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: doing that. But offensively, four for four on third down, 333 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: that's concerned. This is Tom Brady, this Steeler's defense. Ryan 334 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: Clark had just called him out about their effort. Now, 335 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: Cam Hayward is a heck of a player, he's a dog, 336 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: but Minker Fitzpatrick is a dog. But they're very beat 337 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: up there, down two or three starting corners. They're down 338 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: t J. Watt like this isn't the Steelers defense that 339 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: came into the season like wrecking shop. So you expect 340 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: him to have more success. And if they had this 341 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: game and this issue and everything, and Tom didn't miss 342 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: the practice and all that, then I'm sure Tom would 343 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 1: still deal with headlines and headaches about his off the 344 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: field things, you know, because rumors are happening, and you 345 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: should never talk about some mike's personal life. But somehow 346 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: they can keep talking about people's personal life. But what 347 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 1: what what they will talk about is him missing that 348 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: practice and then then playing this way offensively. Caneah, that's 349 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: gonna be a tough one to defend. And I can 350 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: and you can defend the goat to the to the 351 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: cows come home because he is who he is. But 352 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: that's that's one of them tough ones. Richard. They got 353 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: another air quotes here, gimme game next week against the 354 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers. If they lose this one, rich we gotta 355 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: start sounding the alarms, man, because there's gotta be a 356 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: huge sense of urgency in that building right now to 357 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: get this w next weekend and do it in a 358 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: prominent fashion, no question, no question. They got to they 359 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 1: that to have to. But you know where they're sounding alarms, Richard, 360 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: I'll be ringing every bell. I know exactly where you're 361 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: going with this. And I cannot believe we have not 362 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,239 Speaker 1: talked about some of them on the podcast yet. The 363 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: Big Apple, rich what is going on? It don't even 364 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 1: matter where you're at in the Big Apple. You go, 365 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: you go to the Jets, you go to the Giants. 366 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: You're feeling good. I said, they have the toughest toughest 367 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: media in in the world. They as the toughest. They're 368 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: toughest on sports. They're saying they suck when they're good. 369 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: They're saying they're they're killing every coach. They want everybody 370 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 1: to get fired. They're gonna have a hard time being 371 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: tough on these dudes because these teams were not expected 372 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: to be this competitive this quickly. Um Brian Dabo has 373 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: those boys flying around. Look at them, look look at them. 374 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: They beat the Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore Ravens are legitimate, have 375 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 1: been legitimate and every town the time we look up 376 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: and say, man, the Giants just like they're not better 377 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: than the team they beat, but they beat them. Like 378 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: there's only there's only so much you can say so 379 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 1: many times you can say that before it's like, maybe 380 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: they are better, maybe they have better players. Maybe we 381 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: are not giving them the credit they deserve. I don't know, 382 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: they keep squeaking them out, rich I mean they started 383 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: everyone's you know, hey, they got an easy schedule. They 384 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: played the Titans, who started the season off soft, and 385 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: they you know, played Caroline and played a close game. 386 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 1: And but now here you're playing the Packers in a 387 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: neutral site. Now Here you're playing the Baltimore Ravens, who 388 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 1: are held a lot better than their three and three record. 389 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: Rich I mean, this is a team that's how held 390 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: double digit leads and their three losses, which I mean 391 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: we can speak about that next. How the hell they 392 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: blow those three leads? But Richard, this Giants team is 393 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: a team that's making it happen with a quarterback that 394 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: it's still needs a little bit of work. I mean, 395 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: let's be real with ourselves. And really truly not a 396 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: great receiving threat. I mean, and and we're talking about 397 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: young tackles, young tackles and Cabon Tibodeau just got his 398 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: first sect. Yeah, this game happened to be the biggest 399 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: sack of the game because it was a forced bumble 400 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: on Lamar Jackson that effectively ended this game. But Mitchell, 401 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: what what? Richard? You know this game better than most right, 402 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: and and for our listeners and and common fans like myself, 403 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: when you have a stalwart at the left tackle, and 404 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,439 Speaker 1: Andrew Thomas, I mean, I know you've played with a 405 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: handful of great left tackles, namely Trent Williams. How much 406 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 1: does that improve your confidence going into a game? I mean, 407 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: acts Daniel Jones like he's sitting back there cooking grits, 408 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: chips and grits and steak if you need it. Like 409 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: he's back there comfortable. You allowed the quarterback to get comfortable, 410 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 1: to feel comfortable hitting his back foot and going through 411 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: the reeves. He's not looking down to see who's coming around, 412 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: who's coming around, who's who's by his feet. He's standing 413 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: in that pocket, he's taking off when he has to. 414 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: He's not forcing the runs like they're playing confident. They're 415 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 1: playing with house money, and you love to see it. 416 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,959 Speaker 1: But you know who I'm more excited about Mitchell, my Boys, 417 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: Sla and the Balls. You know what I mean? I 418 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: told you you, Hey told you look you know songs. Look, 419 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: I told you Mentell. You know how I feel about sauce. 420 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: Come on, if your own lunch, you probably need you 421 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: some sauce. If you have a boss, if you're playing 422 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: Chris Gross, if you're listening to Rick Ross, you publicly 423 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 1: need you some sauce. And I told you they better 424 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: call him because you're gonna need Ran Deep Moss if 425 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna get open on sauce. He is out there 426 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,959 Speaker 1: strapping Mitchell and then he's gonna put the cheese on 427 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: his head at Lambeau and walk around. And then Breese Hall, 428 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: the rookie going off, does the Lambeau leap with a 429 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:36,679 Speaker 1: Jets jersey on into Jets fans in Lambeau. What you like? 430 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: They are acting unusual and Richard All doing this with 431 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 1: with I mean, let's be real, Zach Wilson isn't providing 432 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 1: a whole lot of a spark to that offense. You 433 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: you're right, Breese Hall, stud I mean they've got great 434 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: young wide receivers. Elijah Moore didn't do anything today, you know, 435 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson didn't do anything today. I mean, these are 436 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: these are guys that have a high trajectory in this league. Rich, 437 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: I'm Robert Sala, Robert Sala. I mean we got to 438 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: Brian dabol and Robert Sala. Who is your favorite right 439 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: now out of those two to walk away with Coach 440 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 1: of the year, well right now at de bos in 441 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: line for But both of them are in the big market. 442 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: And I believe in my guy Solid to come back 443 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: because he's doing it with these young guys. And on 444 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: the other side of Sauce, DJ Reid's strapping. You know, 445 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: had a huge loss this year, but it's strapping Quentin Williams. 446 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 1: Y'all saw you saw the video of Quentin Williams, you know, 447 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: arguing with with his coach. You see, now, we don't 448 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: we don't hear nothing any about that anymore because guess 449 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: what Brick their decordinator. He's rushing for and they're letting 450 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: the coverage cover in the back end. They insert Kwon 451 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,880 Speaker 1: Alexander into the Nickel lineup, and I guess what, Rich, 452 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: he out there hitting everything moving. He out there hitting 453 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 1: everything moving and energizing his defense in a different way. 454 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: C J. Mosley is playing well, and then offensively, Zack Wilson, 455 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: just don't just don't think game away, just don't throw 456 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: the game away. Breeze Hall, hand the ball off the 457 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: breeze Hall. He let him do his thing, Richard. Not 458 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: to add insult to injury for the Packers, but Matt 459 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: Lafleur lost to his brother Michael la Fleur. I mean 460 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 1: this snapped the Packers game home win streak. And amongst 461 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: another insane stat, the Packers have scored only a hundred 462 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: and seven points this season. That is the lowest point 463 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: total in any six game stretch of Aaron Rodgers career. 464 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 1: Rich We talked about it early in the season, this 465 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: wide receiving corps was gonna be an issue. And guess what, 466 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: rich It's an issue. Mitchell. Guess guess who was the 467 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: best man in uh in the Floor's wedding. Can't tell me, Mitchell, 468 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: who's the head coach of the New York Jets, Robert 469 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: Sala That was the best man at the Packers head 470 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: coaches wedding. Mitchell, when I tell you he hasn't beat him, 471 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: I don't think he's beat him yet, Like he didn't 472 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 1: beat him when we were in San Francisco. We we 473 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: beat him over and over and beat beat the dog, 474 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: got him in the playoffs, and then you get him 475 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 1: to the Jets and he can't beat the mentell Mentchell. 476 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: All of these guys were on the same staff at 477 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: one point. They were all on the same staff, and 478 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: it's just cool to see they're all great friends. In 479 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: the second week in a row that Salo is beating 480 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: another one of his friends, so you know he's he's 481 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,479 Speaker 1: definitely two and old in the friendship rivalries. Let's hope 482 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 1: he doesn't have to play the Niners this year, because 483 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: you know, we don't want him to get three. You know, 484 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: you know that's a hard game for me to root for. 485 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,959 Speaker 1: I know you're a huge fan of Robert Salo. I 486 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: know you loved his energy when you played under him 487 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: for the Niners. Did you ever see this coming? Like, honestly, 488 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: did you see this coming when he went to the Jets, 489 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: this quickly of a turnaround to make them a competitive roster. 490 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 1: But then this this is the second year, Rich, I mean, 491 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: did you see Robert Salo coming in and turning this 492 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: program around this quick mentro yes, I was the one 493 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: standing on the table for him saying he should be 494 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: a head coach, and I hope it's coming. You know, 495 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 1: he just needed more talent. He needed some more talent, 496 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: and he needed his his defensive line to not get 497 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: evisceraate eviscerated by injuries. Last season, they got viscerated by injuries. 498 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: Then it's starting quarterbacks. Just had the rookie learning curve, 499 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: rookie growing pains. Offensive line this year, even this year, 500 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: his offensive line got beat up. Thank goodness. They got 501 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: a left tackle who can play. You know, Duanne isn't 502 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: the young Dwayne he used to be, but he is 503 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 1: still starting left tackle in the National Football League and 504 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: he's still gonna hold it down better than most. Now 505 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: they got a solid right tackle. They're having a couple 506 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: of weeks of continuity on that offensive line, and it's 507 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: shown in the run game. Breeze Hall, you got a 508 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 1: playmaker in their backfield. Got a big time running back. 509 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: They got gart Wilson, big time receiver, receiving threat. They 510 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: got more big time receiving threat. They got Burials who 511 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: had a touchdown today on the reverse. Like they have 512 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: the weapons to be a very dangerous team. And defensively, 513 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: you got corners who can just strap and man to 514 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: man coverage against a rod You can do whatever you 515 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: want with the D line, you can do whatever you 516 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 1: want with the safeties. They're gonna get it done. And 517 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: and it's some concern with Green Bay, but I told you, 518 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 1: I told you they don't have the receivers. They do 519 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: not have the receivers in this division, Mitchell, this division 520 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: the Aaron Rodgers Invitational, that was the NFC North Minnesota 521 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: and Richard, I don't think Minnesota is that good. Maybe 522 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: I'm wrong, but five and one, I mean, this is 523 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: a team. You know, the Lions were hot to watch 524 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: that whole game. I thought the Lions should have beat them, 525 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, they don't have a whole lot 526 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: of pop to them. But they keep winning, you know. 527 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: I mean they're kind of like the Giants in a way, 528 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: right they keep winning. Is this is this a team? 529 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: I know you gotta give it some thought here, rich 530 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 1: But is this a team that sneaks into Richard Sherman's 531 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 1: top five and your own third? Treat Mitchell. But there's 532 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: a chance. There is a chance, Matte I cannot lie 533 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: about that. The reason they have a chance is because 534 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: Kirk o good Kirk can do some dangerous things. Mitchell, 535 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 1: I know you're Jefferson, Darius Smith and Patrick Jones, Patrick Peterson, Richard, 536 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: my guy tried to catch me while I'm on while 537 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: I'm on the couch, got him a pick, caught him 538 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: a book, Harrison Smith caught him a book. Like you 539 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: got veterans. You've got guys that can make plays on defense, 540 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: who can just play solid. You got a quarterback who 541 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 1: can get it done. Some receivers that can get it done. 542 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: Mitchells some pressure. I want to I want to stop 543 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: you at the quarterback that can get it done. Comment 544 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 1: rich A lot of people don't know this, but I 545 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: mean you you told me when you were a free agent, 546 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: you said, I either want to go play with jim 547 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: First off, I thought you were nuts going to the 548 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 1: forty Niners, right. I mean, here you are leaving a 549 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,199 Speaker 1: decorated career with the Seahawks and you're going to the 550 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 1: forty Niners who were in the depths of the of 551 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: the division, right, and you wanted to go. You had 552 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: confidence in Kyle and Jimmy g But if it wasn't 553 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: for them, if it wasn't them, you also said, I 554 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: got confidence in kirk Cousins. I would gonna playing be 555 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: a teammate of his. What do you like so much 556 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: about kirk Cousins Mitchell, he can get it done. And 557 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: now he's had his moments, he's had his mistakes, he's 558 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: he's he's ran it to me in the playoffs the 559 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: time are too But when he's hot, Mitchell, just like 560 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 1: last week and he was seventeen of seventeen, he was 561 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: freaking walking the ball down the field. And Kevin O'Connell 562 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 1: another new coach, Mitchell, we're not these new coaches, Mitchell, 563 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: these new coach Kevin O'Connell, Mitchell, that same Kyle shanahan 564 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: McVeigh West Coast system that everybody's running. Justin Jefferson has benefitting. 565 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: Now kirk Cousins is benefitting. Dalvin Cook outside zone, inside zone, 566 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: mid zone, benefiting from a little bit of gap scheme 567 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: like he's putting together. Like you keep saying, hey, maybe 568 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: it's not the players. When you you can have players 569 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: that aren't as talented, are are aren't supposedly as talented 570 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: as the other team, and you can overcome that scheme. 571 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: And sometimes you can overcome scheme with players. This is 572 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: cool because each week is changing up like sometimes it's 573 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: a scheme, sometimes it's the players, but they don't matter. Today. 574 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: Mitchell five and one in the National Football League and 575 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: people are arguing, are they the second best team in 576 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: the NFC? Maybe? You know, Rich, you're talking about scheme 577 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: and this is something I want to talk to you about. Um, 578 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: this is another you know, I know you're one of 579 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 1: the most intelligent guys in the NFL, and I'm just 580 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: your common fan. Right the Cincinnati Bengals, they gotta w today. 581 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: But Joe Burrow has been struggling a little bit up 582 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: to today to have a game today. But defenses are 583 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: adjusting and they're playing what is it? Deep cover two? 584 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: Is that what it is? Rich, walk the listeners through 585 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: how that impacts you know, a guy like Joe Burrow 586 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 1: playing this new scheme. How can I explain it best? Um? 587 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: Because a lot of quarterbacks want to get the ball. 588 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: Everybody to see big plays. Quarterbacks wants explosive plays, explosive passes. 589 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: Playing a deep cover to shell is exactly that. You're 590 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: putting the shell a cap over the over how deep 591 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: they can throw it. If they send a bunch of 592 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: people deep, they'll have four four people on two and 593 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: it will get defended as such, and you'll likely be 594 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 1: throwing the ball to the defense because they're sitting back 595 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: to safeties watching. If you try to split them, a 596 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: lot of times they'll converge. Maybe you can split them 597 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: and enforce it on on the linebacker, but if you 598 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: have an aththetic middle linebacker, then you'll find a lot 599 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 1: of times they'll put a safety in that position just 600 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: to protect them. But they're basically gonna force these quarterbacks 601 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 1: to be patient. They're gonna force them to take five 602 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: yard games, to check the ball down, to take a 603 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 1: curl route instead of the goal route, and not allow 604 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: them to take shots all over the field. The reason 605 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: it's not It didn't work against Burrows today was because 606 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: your bar chase is an absolute be savage, and he 607 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: took one of those short passes and went the distance 608 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: and split the defense. Now that's not happening very often 609 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: because eyes are on the quarterback. When you're in a 610 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 1: two deep sale, all eyes are on the quarterback. So 611 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 1: it's not like you're playing man and man. Are you're 612 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: playing this? Are your backs turn like they're looking at 613 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: the quarterback, So where's shoulders go? Where his eyes go, 614 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: the defense converges. So when he's looking deep, when his 615 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: shoulders are up, a defense is going to continue to 616 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: be deep, but it can be overcome by yack. And 617 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 1: they had a good yak attack today. They sure did. 618 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: Rich Well, we got another great game to night. I 619 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: know by the time our listeners here, this likely gonna 620 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: be over. But but who do you like in tonight's matchup? 621 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I want to score. Prediction the whole nine 622 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: yards Eagles Cowboys, big divisional game. Your prediction, Big play 623 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 1: Slate player, Big place Slate is absolutely playing all right, 624 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: big plays active, Brad Berry's playing. Their D line is 625 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: playing in a hot Uh, They're old line is pretty 626 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: healthy still okay, Lane Johnson still hasn't given up a second? 627 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: Did last twenty seven years or so? All right again? 628 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: All right, muscle batman, skin batman playing right? All right? 629 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: All right? Cool? Yeah, I got the Eagles. I got 630 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: the Eagles in a in a in a in a 631 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: walk away game that that isn't even competitive for the 632 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: simple fact that last week Michael Parsons went off, and 633 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: Michael Parson's been going off on everybody, but the last 634 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: week he played against the Rams, and they ran a 635 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: play where they only rushed to alignment. They only rushed 636 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: two defensive a lignment on the play. Mintell. On that 637 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: play he got a sack. It was the most ridiculous thing. 638 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: Every every offensive aignment on the RAM should have got 639 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: fired that day. Do not expect that kind of miscommunication tonight. 640 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: Do not expect him to have a great game by 641 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: any stretch of imagine that. If he gets the sack tonight, 642 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: consider him very elite and and front runner for Defensive 643 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 1: Player the Year because he earned it. If he gets 644 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: it on Lane Johnson, give him the trophy because he 645 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: earned it. I don't expect him to have a big game. 646 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,719 Speaker 1: Traybon Diggs, who has been been really competitive, really sticky 647 00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: in coverage, um getting his hands on football's I think 648 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna have a lot of time. They're 649 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna use double moves, triple moves, they're gonna 650 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: get underneath. I think they're gonna be able to move 651 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: the ball. But I think offensively, they're not just gonna 652 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 1: let the Dallas Cowboys run the ball down their throats 653 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: like they have been every other week. They're gonna they're 654 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: gonna pack the box. They're gonna play man and man 655 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: coverage on the outside and make Cooper Rush beat them 656 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: and show Dallas Cowboy fans why Cooper Rush is not 657 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 1: the answer. And while they paid Dak Prescott the big bucks. 658 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: If Dak Prescott plays, I think they have a chance. 659 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 1: But if it's Cooper Rush, I can't see. I can't 660 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: see the Eagles beating the Cowboys. I got, I got 661 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 1: the game thirty one seventeen.
