They're five and three. 26 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: How does this happen? Great coaching, great coaching, Gino m 27 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: v P Geno Smith playing m V peopall He's not 28 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: gonna get it because Mahomes and and and Josh Allen. 29 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: But he's got thirteen touchdowns three interceptions on the season. 30 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,639 Speaker 1: He's being the guy they need him to be. Kenneth 31 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: Walker Jr. And guess what the defense showed up. They 32 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: hailed this boy, Daniel Jones too, I think a hundred 33 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: and sixty yards or so. I mean, he wasn't he 34 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: he wasn't cooking. They didn't let him rush for a ton, 35 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: they didn't let Sae Kwon run wild. I mean, there's 36 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: a lot of things to be excited for. D k 37 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: wasn't as injured as as everybody thought he was, which 38 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: is great news. Uh. Tyler Lockett had kind of a 39 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: rough day and then turned it all around with a 40 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: double move touchdown on the Dorry Jackson. Uh. It was. 41 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: It was really great. But I felt bad for my guy, 42 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 1: Richie James. That's what that's a guy, you know, old 43 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: teammate of mine. Uh. I really is cheer cheer for 44 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: him every week and that was a tough game for him. 45 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 1: But O chena new WOA suit. It's going crazy right now, Mitchell. 46 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: He looks like a steal of a free agent pick up. 47 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: Another two SAT game for him and your boy Kenneth 48 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: Walker had a touchdown. This draft class is gonna go 49 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: down in the record books. It has to. I mean, 50 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: every single pick, for the most part, is making a 51 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: contribution to this team. And they're allowing this team that 52 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: was projected to be in the basement of this division, 53 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: uh to now be first place in the NFC West 54 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: eight weeks into the season. I mean we talked about 55 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: it last week, know when we said, hey, five seven 56 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: games in the season. If I were to tell you 57 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: that at the beginning season, what would you say, now, 58 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: two games over five, eight weeks into the season, five 59 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: and three, first place in NFC West. If I were 60 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: to tell you that at the beginning season, rich what 61 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: would you say, Mitchell you'd be insane. But if you 62 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: also told me they'd be playing a six and one 63 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: Giants this week, I would also say this is an 64 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,519 Speaker 1: alternate universe where where I don't belong and I don't 65 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: know where the Avengers are and Thanos, but they're somewhere 66 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: around because this is insanity. I know there's a little 67 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: level of bias with your ties to Seattle, but we 68 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: might be having conversations about Richard Sherman's power ranks in 69 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: Seattle sniffing that fifth spot here pretty soon if they 70 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: keep this up. If they keep it up, Ma's I 71 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: need them to keep it up for for them to 72 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: get that they're doing a great job. Right now. They 73 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: three in a row, three in a row for them. 74 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: Gino Is is fourth in QBRU in the National Football League. 75 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: He's being he's being what Pete Carroll always needs his 76 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: quarterbacks to be very careful at the ball, no careless turnovers. 77 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: The defense didn't get turnover today, but the special teams 78 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: got to. I mean, this is what you need. This 79 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: is peak Carroll football. Uh, the twelfth Men. We were 80 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: loud and proud and and they're back engaged in football games. 81 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun for them going forward. They they 82 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: held Daniel Jones and check he was finding his rhythm. 83 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: It turned looked like a pretty darn good quarterback over 84 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: the last week or two, and I think he was 85 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: sub twenty yards at half passing, you know. I mean, 86 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: we talked about it a couple of weeks ago. The 87 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: one thing holding this team back was their defense, and 88 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: they needed to step up in order to take make 89 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: this team take that next step. What have they done 90 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: right over these last few weeks. It seems like we've 91 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: seen the shift all of a sudden. Seattle's got a 92 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: pretty good defense. What if they've done different, They're they're 93 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: mixing it up. There were there an extra safety on 94 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,119 Speaker 1: the field. Ryan Neil played a really good game today. 95 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: They're getting pass rushers back. They're putting some old faces on. 96 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: Bruce Irving had some pressures on the quarterbacks, some TFLs um. 97 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: His leadership is invaluable. Big Al Woods in the middle 98 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,679 Speaker 1: is making a big difference. Jordan's playing really good football 99 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: in the middle. Uh in the second Dary, I mean 100 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: the corners, you just aren't hearing a lot. Michael Jackson 101 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: had a really good game because you're not hearing their names. 102 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: To Rik, you haven't heard his name in a while, 103 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: because after you catch four interceptions in four games and 104 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: people stopped bothering you, they stopped throwing it over there, 105 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: and they get they get hip to the groove. Um 106 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: Quandre Diggs is still back there doing this thing. Cody 107 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: Barton had a sack today, and they're They're getting contributions 108 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: from all over the field. They're playing great team football. 109 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: They're just being disciplined. Guys are in their gaps, Guys 110 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,239 Speaker 1: are setting edges, Guys are are are containing the football. 111 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 1: They're doing what good, well coached teams do. And offensively 112 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 1: they're doing the same. The rookies are have come in 113 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: ready to play again. UK. I cannot overstate how ready 114 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: to play these rookies came in. That's the difference in 115 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 1: this season. That's the reason this isn't a rebuild season 116 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: because these guys came in and they're making huge impacts. 117 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: Last time they had a good draft class like this, 118 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: you were in it rich and that's how quickly franchise 119 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: can turn around. It just can take one one draft class, 120 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: and they did it quick. Let's keep it in the division. 121 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: Another team that you played for got back, you know, 122 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: finally got back in the win column. San Francisco forty 123 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: Niners talk about what happened in l A.

You know, he had only 128 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: a couple of days to prepare. Everybody's like, oh, this, 129 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: this trade doesn't look great.

He literally is the first forty 134 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: Niner in history to throw catch in rush for a touchdown. 135 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: H took him two weeks to make history. That's wild. 136 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: But he had almost a buck on the ground. Uh, 137 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: he had fifty five yards receiving. He had thirty four 138 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: yard touchdown to Brandon Ayouk, who had a nice game. 139 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: Eighty when arts a touchdown, Fred twelve tackles, uh Sat Nicholas, 140 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: John Bosa my defensive m v P is making sure 141 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 1: you guys just don't forget about him, you know what 142 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: I mean.

Uh. 145 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: And and just they they held Matt Stafford, who check 146 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: the hell Cooper cup and check didn't even have a 147 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: hundred yards this game every other game this season, every 148 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: other game against the forty niners. I mean he's getting 149 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: a hundred yards, you know, because he's getting fourteen fifteen 150 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: targets this this game, they held him under a hunter, 151 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: The held Matt Stafford under two hundred yards passing.

Seems to have a little bit of 166 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl hangover that lost that electricity on offense. 167 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: It seems this Rams team has been pretty damn good 168 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: over the last three years, four years. Excuse me, How 169 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: in the world do the forty Niners have their number 170 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: on this team to this degree? Mitchell? It's it's it's 171 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: a little bit of big brother, a little bit brother 172 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: syndrome with Shanahan and McVeigh. You know, I I he 173 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: has an understanding of what McVeigh is trying to do 174 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: because he taught McVeigh. You know, they learned up under 175 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: you know, it's like the master in the paddawan. You know. 176 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: It's just you know, I don't know. Their players not 177 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: not playing well obviously this year. I think the forty 178 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: Niners have the better team, but they haven't always had 179 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,599 Speaker 1: the better team, and schematically they just had them. You know, 180 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: they have answers for what Rams are trying to do. 181 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: They it's like they're always a step ahead of them. 182 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 1: They always have have It's even in the second half 183 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: of mcveigh's only lost two games while leading at the half, 184 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: and both of them against Kyle Shanahan. And that's in crazy. 185 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,599 Speaker 1: That's crazy in itself, you know. And it's always a 186 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: need to have a game for this was a must 187 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: have game and they and they get it just about 188 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: every time. I mean, I'm sure i'd be excited to 189 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: hear what Kyle has to say about it. Well, the 190 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: Rams if they're treading water right now and they're starting 191 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: to get to the point where they might be drowning 192 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: here in a bit. I mean, they're going on the 193 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: road against Tampa, a team desperate for a win. Really 194 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: in the same situation as the Rams. I really haven't 195 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: formed that identity. Where do you see this Rams team 196 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: netting out at the end of the season at home 197 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: at home? I have a hard time seeing them in 198 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: the playoffs because of the old line. You know, they 199 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: have a ton of talent on defense. We thought they 200 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: had two good receivers in Cooper Cup and Allen Robinson. 201 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,599 Speaker 1: For some reason, Allen Robinson hasn't come to fruition like 202 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: you would imagine. You held out hope hoping that oh 203 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: O'Dell in the future would come and and rescue rescue 204 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: him like he did last year. That may not ever 205 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: come to fruition, even when he gets healthy. I don't 206 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: think this team would be an attractive destination for O'Dell 207 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: Beckham Jr. Because there's other teams that want him, other 208 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: teams that will be in contention. I mean, if the 209 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: Buffalo Builds, Kansas City Chiefs call, he'd be a fool 210 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: to go to l A and those teams are calling. 211 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,599 Speaker 1: Even if the Green Bay Packers are calling, you know, 212 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 1: dark Horse. What if the Minnesota Vikings call um? You know, 213 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: it gets it gets crazy. The Rams have done a 214 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 1: lot of things to try to keep to stay in 215 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: the good graces of O'Dell. But at the end of 216 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: the day, he got to make the decision that's best 217 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: for his career and going forward. And if he thinks 218 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: that's the Rams um that, you know, they'd have to 219 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: change some things very quickly. Make every moment more this 220 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: Monday night by downloading FanDuel America's number one sports book, 221 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: because every Monday.

You know, talk to me about this game 243 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: for Denver. It was a big win for them. Russell 244 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: had a little bit of a resurgence at the end 245 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: of the game and talked about how big of a 246 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: win this is for Denver. This is huge, this is huge. 247 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: The wheels were about to fall off the ship, you know, 248 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: it was. It was gonna be a lot of blame. 249 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: People were saying they were gonna leave Nathaniel Hackett in 250 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: London if they lost this game. Um, but Russell comes back. Uh, 251 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: plays a really good good second half, really good second 252 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: half of the game. Eight team for thirty two fifty two, 253 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: a touchdown, he threw a pick in the game. But 254 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: Jerry Judy had a very solid game and a touchdown. 255 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: He ran a really great route. But they didn't have 256 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: a first down until till twenty one minutes into the game. 257 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: You know, there's still a lot of questions about this 258 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: team and a lot of things they have to answer. 259 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: The defense has been on the field way too long 260 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 1: every game, and yes they're battling. My boy KK got 261 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: even pick with a cast on. You know, he's out 262 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,079 Speaker 1: there battle. They called a BS flag on him because 263 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 1: he goes low and makes a heck of a play 264 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: the only way you can make to play with a 265 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: with a with a tackle bearing down on him. But 266 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 1: you know that's that, you know, that's the story for 267 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: a different day. But they gave up a hundred and 268 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: fifty six yards to Travis Eton Jr. Uh in a 269 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: Russian touchdown. That's that's uncharacteristic of this defense. Obviously they 270 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,839 Speaker 1: held Trevor Lawrence and check huge red zone interception justin 271 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 1: simmons Um, which was a crazy throw by you know, 272 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is not getting enough heat. That's that's something 273 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 1: I'm not understanding. Like he was a number one pick, 274 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: Like they need to be like what is he doing? 275 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: What is he doing? You throw? You throw across your body? 276 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: Like I hear them killed? Like uh, like Zach Wilson 277 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: they killed. They're killing Zack Wilson. You know you throw 278 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: the crazy interceptions like three of them in a gang 279 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,719 Speaker 1: cool crazy yes, Like he threw an interception from the 280 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: one yard line. You know how I feel about that, Mitchell, 281 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: Like you threw an interception and you threw a stupid 282 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: pass like that was not even a wise decision. There 283 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: wasn't there was no way that was gonna ever be complete. 284 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 1: You're late throwing it back inside into the field, like 285 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 1: what what exactly where you're thinking he was a number 286 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: one pick. Everybody's saying he's generational talent, He's the next 287 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck. No, he's not not even close. Like look, 288 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: ain't look, ain't doing this. Luck is leading this team. 289 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: Luck would have had that had those games one, maybe 290 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: six and one right now with Andrew Love, like he's 291 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 1: everything they thought Justin Herbert was. You know, they said 292 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert doesn't love the game. You know, he's disinterested, 293 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: he's he's a pretty boy, he you know, he kind 294 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: of he kind of just kind of makes his way 295 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: through the game like you thought he was coaching. So 296 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: you're like, hey, we'll give him, we'll give him, We'll 297 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: give him a break. You know. Back coach Doug Peterson's 298 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: a good coach. Like they're running a pretty good offensive scheme. 299 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: It should play two his strengths. He's just not making 300 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: it happen. He's not making great decisions, he's not making 301 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: plays with his legs and not played making plays with 302 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: his arm. All that armed talent. You saw it Clemson, 303 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: You're not seeing it now, like where is it at? 304 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: You know, and and and cool. First year you're like, okay, alright, 305 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: second year, no, you don't get the excuse anymore. Like 306 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: your pro makes him plays well. You see it in 307 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: pieces with him, right, I mean you see the big arm. 308 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: You know, he certainly looks to have that that talent. Yeah, 309 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: that the whole tank for Trevor. I mean, the dude 310 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: remember this and Clemson. I mean, he was the guy 311 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: everyone teams where NFL teams were lining up, you know, 312 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: and at the end of that season trying to lose 313 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: games for this guy. And he hasn't been that spark plug. 314 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: He hasn't been the differentiator for this team. And I 315 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: mean he's got the weapons. I mean on the offensive 316 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: side of the ball, they have enough weapons to make 317 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: things happen, you know, and certainly defensively, they gotta help 318 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: a lot of talent. You know, This Jaguars team is 319 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: a team that if they can get right, if Trevor 320 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: Lawrence can get his act together, that they could be competitive. 321 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: But at this point in time, they're not. Mitchell, you know, 322 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: you drunk, Richard. I know, we get heat for you 323 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: get heat for the risk the Russell Wilson conversations, But 324 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: we didn't bring this one up. This is one he 325 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: brought on himself, and he was going viral on it 326 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: because of his his acts on the plane on the 327 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: way over, you know, doing the high knees, you know, stretching, 328 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: working out for four or the eight hours. Uh yeah, 329 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys saw the memes. It was all 330 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: over the internet. But is this something that's new, I 331 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: mean from Russell and other teammates, you know, working out 332 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: on these long flights getting in one you can or 333 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: is this just like one of those rare random odd 334 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: things from uh random odd guy. Um, A little bit 335 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: of both, metell. I mean, guys, veterans especially, you're on 336 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: a what eight nine hour flight, you're gonna you're gonna 337 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: get up and move around, you know, and and and 338 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: your trainers and your your everybody's gonna tell you a 339 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: you need to get up, move around. You need to 340 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: try to get your blood flowing, you know, because otherwise 341 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: you gotta play a game eventually, and you're gonna be staggering. 342 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: You're flying across the ponch like it's it's gonna be different. 343 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 1: But for four hours mentioned four hours is a bit 344 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: it's a bit excessive mental that that seems a bit exaggerated. 345 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: Liked to watch the film. That makes sense, you know, 346 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: to four hours. I'm trying to figure out exactly what 347 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: you'd be doing for four hours. I mean, he's breaking 348 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: a sweat. I don't know what kind of plane they 349 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: had or what kind of aisles they had, but four 350 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: hours is a bit long to do anything, Metro. I 351 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: don't know many players who who work out on a 352 00:16:55,400 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: regular day for four hours, right, let alone doing some 353 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: high knees walking lunges down the aisle for four hours. 354 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I get it to a degree rich. And 355 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: I know guys are working out in their hotel rooms, 356 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 1: you know, and you know, getting it in wherever they can. 357 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: And I remember visiting you during the Super Bowl before 358 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: you guys took on the Chiefs and and guys were 359 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 1: working out in the hotel lobbies, you know. But yeah, 360 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: I mean certainly the seams in random, no question about 361 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 1: it is. But they worked. They got the win, and 362 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: then ask the football league that's all that matters. You 363 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: get to win. They you know, if you got a 364 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: voodoo doll in your locker, keep it in there because 365 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: we we need to win next week too, and um, 366 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: they gotta they gotta keep it close. They you know, 367 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: they break break a four game losing streak. You know, 368 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: we'll see if this gets some any momentum. But the 369 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: offense still did not look They still looked disconnected. You know, 370 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 1: they still got a lot of questions to answer, and 371 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 1: the better answer them soon. Let's go, Let's go down 372 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 1: to Dallas. This is a team that's getting hot. They 373 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: look really good offensively today, they look great defensively. Uh, 374 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons is a freaking stuff. Uh. I don't know 375 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: what uh Josh Fields is doing not touching him down 376 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: on that fumble recovery. But I suppose he thinks he's 377 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: still playing at Ohio State. But I think the big 378 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: story and take away from this day, at least from me, 379 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: is the differentiator and difference maker Tony Poler can be 380 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: out of the backfield when he's by himself. I know 381 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 1: Zeke is Cash drafted this team for the next few years, 382 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: but I don't know. Man, it might be time to 383 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: just call a spade a spade and let the better 384 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 1: man play and let him play more often. Every single 385 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: time Tony Poller touches the ball fifteen times or more, 386 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: the Cowboys win. They're eight and oh in the last 387 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 1: eight games that Tony Polers touched the ball fifteen times 388 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 1: or more. You know, for those of us playing fantasy 389 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,920 Speaker 1: football out there, tell me Tony Poller would not be 390 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 1: a top five pick without Zeke and Dallas. I mean, 391 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: I called it at the beginning of the year. Rich 392 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna stand on my pedal stool and boast 393 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: a little bit here. Uh, Tony Pollard is a stud, 394 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: and he makes this team a hell of a lot 395 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 1: better offensively, chime and wretch. Tell me I'm wrong, Bettell. 396 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,880 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell you wrong. I said weeks ago. 397 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,360 Speaker 1: I said, if Zeke wasn't making that amount of money, 398 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: then then Tony Poller would be getting We would be 399 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: the starter and getting the step getting the snaps. You 400 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: got all all these Dallas fans and our mentions, all 401 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: these Dallas fans in the comments. He can't pass, protect, 402 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 1: he can't pay. I don't care. I don't care what 403 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,680 Speaker 1: he can do. You know what he can't do. He 404 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: can toney, he can be explosive. He is explosive. That 405 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: offense is explosive. When he's in the game, you handed 406 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: to him, there's a chance at a home run every time. 407 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 1: That used to be the case with Zeke. Father time 408 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: is undefeated, especially with running backs in the National Football League. 409 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 1: But guess who's not going anywhere? Zeke? Zeke is not 410 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: going anywhere Dallas Cowboys fans. So even if you agree 411 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: with me, even if you finally see seeing the light, 412 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 1: guess what he ain't going nowhere. He is staying in 413 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboy and he's making a lot of money. But 414 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: you know who's probably gonna go somewhere, Tony Pollard. He's 415 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: gonna go make himself a lot of money, deservedly so, 416 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: because he's the start and running back in the National 417 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 1: Football League and he's not getting treated as such in Dallas. 418 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: And fifteen touches in a game where he was going 419 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 1: off averaging almost ten yards to carry? Is that? Like? 420 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: What are they doing? Like he's averaging ten yards? Keep 421 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: giving him the ball. But for some reason, I don't 422 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: know what it is that you know, some players in 423 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: this league just get the short end of the stick, 424 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: and it just seems like he's getting the short end 425 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: of the stick even though he's showing like, hey, I 426 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: can make it happen now, captain, but they're not gonna 427 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: give him a shot, you know, and and and it 428 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: is what it is. He's taking advantage of his opportunity. 429 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 1: But Dak is going crazy. That is looking like an 430 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: old self. You know, he had he had an characteristic interception, 431 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: but he was he was he was doing a thing. 432 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: He was doing what he what he's supposed to do. 433 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: And again back to what he talked about when when 434 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: Cooper Russell was playing, they are not throwing at fifty 435 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: times a game. They're keeping it under thirty passes and 436 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: they're running the ball, which is all you can ask. 437 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: I mean, the concerning thing is is you still don't 438 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: have a hunter yard receiver on the season. You know, 439 00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: that's a bit of a concern. You expect was one 440 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: of these guys, you know, Ceedee Lamb has gotten a 441 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: lot of attention, that got a lot of hype, and 442 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,239 Speaker 1: we haven't seen a hundred yard game from him, um 443 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 1: gallop that there hasn't been a hundred yard game from him. 444 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 1: So that's a concern. But Cowboys are are are doing 445 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: their thing, man, and they got a bye week so 446 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,439 Speaker 1: they can get healthier in Chicago. Justin Fields, I mean, 447 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:20,239 Speaker 1: I don't know what you're doing on that play. I mean, 448 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: he was pretty efficient this game with the ball. He 449 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,360 Speaker 1: didn't throw any interceptions, two touchdowns. He was running the ball. 450 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: They're finally doing what they're supposed to do. They're on offense. 451 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: They just don't have enough talent. The Chicago Bears are 452 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 1: finally a watchable team, is what I'll categorize him as. 453 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 1: I mean before I mean that you flip on the 454 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: TV and you're like, oh Man's water polo on. I 455 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: don't know if I want to watch these guys anymore. 456 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: But I mean, you know, they've running the ball to 457 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: plush yards in the last three games. You know, they're 458 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 1: they're establishing an identity and they're doing what you said, 459 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 1: they're playing into justin fields strengths. But you know again 460 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: that that fumble return for a touchdown really was the 461 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: breaking point in this game. They just couldn't keep up anymore. 462 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: A game that everyone thought was going to be a 463 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: complete waste of time, you know, a game that we 464 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: thought would be searching for the channel changer to to 465 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 1: flip this game off as quick as possible turned into 466 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: be the best game of the weekend. And and that's 467 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: down in Atlanta, the Atlanta Falcons taking on the lowly 468 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,239 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers, who have all of a sudden become an 469 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 1: exciting team ever since they traded Christian McCaffrey. Uh Deonta 470 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: Foreman's got to be pretty happy he's in that role 471 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: right now. Who's probably not so happy is d J. Moore. 472 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: Um big play. You know, obviously, emotions are high. You 473 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: catch a hail Mary and the waning seconds of the 474 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: game to tie the game and having an opportunity to 475 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: win it with the point after and you proceed to 476 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: rip your helmet off and and do what you do. 477 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 1: I get it, I get it. Emotions are high. But Richard, 478 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 1: that's your teammate. What are you saying to him? Nothing? Nothing? 479 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: The kicker sucked. Now we're not saying nothing, for you're 480 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: not saying nothing to that kid. He made a hell 481 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: of a play, and you can get up mad all 482 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 1: you want. He earned the right to do whatever the 483 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: heck he wanted after that play. You had no chance 484 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 1: of winning the ball game. He called a hell mary. 485 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: Heck of a past um by by P. J. Walker 486 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: heck of a catch by him. Kickers, do your job. 487 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: You got one job. Do your job and not he didn't. 488 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: He didn't just miss the extra point. He said, you 489 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,239 Speaker 1: know what, when we get to ot, I'm gonna get 490 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: another shot and I'm gonna miss that one too. Like 491 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: that's who you need to be talking about. DJ Moore. 492 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: She get credit for giving him a chance to win 493 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: that ball game, like I hate the Monday morning quarterback 494 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: in this situation, Like he made a heck of a play, 495 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 1: like sure, oh, celebrate with your two, keep your help 496 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: or whatever kick there. If he kicked at your point, 497 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: it makes the extra point like his job is supposed 498 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: to do. Or if d J. Moore doesn't do his job, 499 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: like like Pinnaro didn't, then he drops that pass. And 500 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: we're not talking about nothing, you know, but if everybody 501 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: does their job, the kicker has one job. It's a 502 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: very difficult job. There's only thirty two kickers. But that's 503 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: why that's you don't you don't have to condition, you 504 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: don't get your body beat up like that. You have 505 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: your very specific job. And if you can't do that, 506 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure there's gonna be a new kicker for for 507 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: the theres on come Monday, um, and so that's why 508 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: I'm putting this one on. D J. Moore had six 509 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: reception for one fifty two and a tug. He did 510 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: his job. C J. Henderson, Dante Jackson had interceptions. The 511 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: defense is playing well. This was a team that I 512 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: was supposed to be giving up on. I mean, I 513 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: still don't care about the game MENTU. I mean, it's 514 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: the NFC South. They have a losing record, and this 515 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: is I hear you. I want to say they're gonna 516 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: be relevant in in January, but I don't. I don't 517 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: see the any of these teams being relevant in January. 518 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: I mean maybe maybe Tampa if they can, they can 519 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 1: figure it out because Tom, you got Tom. But outside 520 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: of that, I mean that's not great. Yeah, they're looking 521 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: like the dormat of the NFL. But you know who's 522 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: gonna be good? Kirk oh six and one kerk Oh 523 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: six and one Minnesota Vikings, Kevin O'Connell. They do not 524 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: look like a joke. They do not look like the joke. 525 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: They don't. I know. I took a little bit of 526 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: heat in the comments section when I said, how the 527 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: hell is this Minnesota team? Four and one this is 528 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. You know, I I didn't 529 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: believe in him, you know, and maybe I should believe 530 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: in him, and they I should believe in my fellow Spartan. 531 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: Come on, Kirk Cousins. You know I used to watch 532 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: that guy when I was in college. Just got this 533 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: guy carried the Spartans to a rose ball for God's sake, 534 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: you know, borderline legend. And uh maybe, uh maybe maybe 535 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 1: I was wrong with the Vikings though Kirk. I told you. 536 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: I told people when Kirk is hot, he can do 537 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: it now like he two touchdowns thirty six to thirty 538 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 1: two Dalvin Cook. A good running game makes every quarterback's 539 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 1: life a lot easier. And also having Justin Jefferson and 540 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: Adam Feeling makes every quarterback's job a lot easier. But 541 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 1: Darius Smith and that defense Patrick Peterson, don't get Pat 542 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,880 Speaker 1: p had a message for the Arizona Cardinals. Let him, 543 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: you know, over there playing playing Xbox, sending a message 544 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: to Kyler playing Xbox. Colin, if you wasn't playing Xbox, 545 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: then you wouldn't be having a deal with me today. 546 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: But if you would have watched the tape over the 547 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: last decade or so, then you would know who Patrick 548 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: Peterson is and not to deal with him, but you 549 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: try to deal with him, and you got dealt with. 550 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 1: It was it was cool to see. I always like 551 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,239 Speaker 1: people from my class, that two thousand and eleven class, dear, 552 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: dear to my heart, and they bought out DeAndre Hopkins, 553 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: come back, come back, tours back, you know, twelve nine 554 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: and a tug one hander. It was crazy. Yeah, I 555 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: mean Pat p Patrick Peterson, like you said, his revenge game, 556 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: You've been in that same situation before, going back to Seattle, 557 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 1: playing in front of the twelve as a fan base 558 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: that loved and adored you for years. I know you guys, 559 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: says athletes just another game? Like truthfully, Rich, is it 560 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: just another game playing against your former team mental It's 561 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: just another game that you want to win and you 562 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: want to show your cheeks and you want to make 563 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 1: them man, you want to make up jealous. It's like 564 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: it's like it's like you want to make a see 565 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 1: what they what they missing and and he made them 566 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: see it. Um, they won the game. You know, they 567 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: got good corner play and all that, but they lost. 568 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 1: In the reason they lost, he had a lot to 569 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: do with it. He had he had multiple deflections because 570 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 1: he made he made an impact throughout the game. Um 571 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 1: made Klars like very difficult. Kylers is not having a 572 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: bad game. They're really find the rhythm with that offense 573 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: six for thirty six, but it's just not enough and 574 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: that division is getting away from him. And again the 575 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: NFC North that was the a Rod Invitational for the 576 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 1: last two decades just looking like Minnesota to lose. That's 577 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 1: that's Kirk Cousins territory in time. Now, Rich, we talked 578 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: about the Cardinals a little bit. I mean, this is 579 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 1: a team they seem to get a little bit of 580 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: their there. I don't know what the word is exactly. 581 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 1: This team was a team without any sort of clarity really, 582 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you didn't know who they were a week 583 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: to week, and it seems like they found their footing 584 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: a little bit more with DeAndre Hopkins back. But Kyler Murray, 585 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 1: I mean to me, just doesn't look like a guy 586 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: you pay north to forty million dollars a year. I mean, 587 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: first your thoughts on that, Rich, and how much does 588 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: paying somebody like Kayer Kyler that amount of money impact 589 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,640 Speaker 1: this franchise going forward? Well, he's married to the coach. 590 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 1: They're gonna go as he goes, and and just like 591 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: every other quarterback that gets a lot of money, you're 592 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 1: gonna be stuck with him for a while. And that's 593 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: that's the thing about this league when you draft a 594 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: quarterback early. They drafted him after they had already drafted 595 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen with the top ten pick, and so the 596 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: new coaching staff they had to, hey, say, hey, we 597 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 1: made a mistake. We this new coaching staff wants another quarterback, 598 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: so they have to eat that. And so you compounding 599 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: that with saying, hey, he hasn't had a lot of success. 600 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he's kind of doing what we wanted to do. 601 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: We got us to the playoffs technically, but how many 602 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: good quarterbacks and how many people can we acclimate tour? 603 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: Like do we want to go back into rebuilding? No, 604 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: we don't want to go back into rebuilding. So what 605 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: are options? He has them? By he had them, He 606 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: had him. They had to make a decision. They had 607 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: to extend him. And that's what's happening. Like Trevor Lawrence, 608 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: he just needs one good year and he'll have the 609 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars to to say, hey, would you take a 610 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: average to above average quarterback or have a below average quarterback? 611 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: And if you take average to a lot above average 612 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,239 Speaker 1: quarterback and pay him the amount of money that you're 613 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: paying him, you know, this is a situation you get 614 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: into like you're married to him. Your team's three and five, 615 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: and you don't see a lot of hope in the future. 616 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: You know, it's not like you have a lot of 617 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: picks like Seattle Seahawks have hope because they have multiple 618 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: first round picks at cap room. They have all these 619 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: things going for and their attractive destination. Hey, coach, people 620 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: want to play for right now. Arizona doesn't have that. 621 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: You know, they have some good players, they have DeAndre 622 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: Hopkins and they're starting to make things happen on offense. 623 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: But the quarterback, you know, it's still a wild car 624 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: And this weekend is a rap. I'll let you sign 625 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: us off um as we lead into Sunday Night Football 626 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: on Monday Night.
