Speaker 4: I still think at and T Stadium shows good on TV.

12
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 4: Mike may be the only thing the Cowboys have going

Speaker 4: for them. Welcome man, it is I want your flex.

17
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 4: let's do it. Uh, Danbyer dot Besky dot Social Mike

18
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 4: You on the train?

19
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 5: Okay, there it is.

20
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 2: I have all of one follower and it's you know.

21
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 5: Usual boy, Ian Ian. Are you on the on the

22
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:10,759
Speaker 5: train yet?

23
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 1: No?

24
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 6: I haven't yet, but I know that I do need

25
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 6: to jump on the wave because like we talked about

26
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 6: on last week. So I need to get the Ian

27
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 6: Roddy before that British guy got.

28
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:20,559
Speaker 2: British.

29
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 4: The great thing about the conversation last week was I

30
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 4: went into my search bar again and it said Ian Roddy,

31
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 4: and that guy's face was looking right at me. Because

32
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 4: that that's what we talked about. Is Ian said he

33
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 4: had his Twitter handle, not stolen from him, just somebody

34
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 4: got it first, but the British Ian Roddy. So you

35
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 4: may want to get on that, uh for for Blue

36
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 4: Sky before it takes over. All right, let's talk about

37
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 4: that Monday night affair. We don't have to spend a

38
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 4: ton of time on it, but we usually do it

39
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 4: here on this podcast. All I'm going to say this

40
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 4: about the Dallas Cowboys, and it has nothing to do

41
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 4: with their stadium. Already, got that out of the way.

42
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 4: I have Ceedee Lamb in a league. I have Ceede Lamb.

43
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 5: We spent a hold over, and I think sometimes we

44
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 5: have holdovers.

45
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 4: You have this relationship, you feel this special bond with

46
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 4: that player more so than other players on your team.

47
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 4: But even I was getting sick of Ceedee Lamb complaining

48
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 4: every time Cooper Rush didn't throw the ball to him,

49
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 4: and I just think or near him, or have it

50
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 4: in the right spot, and I just think it's so counterproductive.

51
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 4: I don't know what fantasy advice Mike we could give

52
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 4: with the Dallas Cowboys. I just thought it was a

53
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 4: bad look for a team that's got enough problems on

54
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 4: their hand. Making their backup quarterback look like he's even

55
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 4: more incompetent than what he has to deal with on

56
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 4: offense is a bad look for Ceedee Lamb, there's my

57
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 4: cowboy take.

58
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 2: No, it's one hundred percent right, But what do we

59
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 2: always say? Squeaky wheel gets the grease whatever else and

60
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 2: targets you know, but that's shit, right, Still eight for

61
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 2: ninety three. He just didn't like the ones he didn't

62
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 2: get Dan, especially when Cooper Rush throws the ball fifty

63
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 2: five times, that means that's forty times he didn't throw

64
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 2: it towards CD and Anger even completed a four yard

65
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 2: nice catch. Nice tackle by Mechi by the way, hopefully

66
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 2: you know, if you have idp leagues, you make sure

67
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 2: you get that asterisk in that point for your tackle.

68
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 2: But all of that to say, yeah, it's it's the

69
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 2: frustrations just blowing and over I say, blowing over. And

70
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 2: it's kind of funny, be given the winds are being

71
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 2: blamed for the destruction of Jerry's palace. There high winds.

72
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 2: They had a big storm early in the morning. So

73
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 2: whoever the hell then decided, Hey, let's open the roof

74
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 2: after all of that, what'd you think it was just

75
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,839
Speaker 2: gonna be everything blew away?

76
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a nice.

77
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 2: Clear day, no problems, problems that you probably should have

78
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 2: checked your your ceiling and the mechanism and everything, you know,

79
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 2: routine maintenance every six months. But that being said, for

80
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 2: cd LAMB, target count's going to be there. Sonity. All

81
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 2: we can speak to I think here is opportunity. I

82
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 2: was talking to about this, you know, with another member

83
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 2: that was on the checklist right for this week, Ricodowdell

84
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 2: as a potential sleeper after he got the dreaded vote

85
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 2: of confidence as the starter. Well, he still touched the

86
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 2: ball what twelve times? That's all I can That's all

87
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 2: I can say is you got twelve opportunities. Now, the

88
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 2: fact that he literally could have just fallen forward and

89
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: achieved the same level of confidence that he did against

90
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 2: the Texans, I can't predict that but all I I

91
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 2: I can say is opportunity is gonna be there. As

92
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 2: per CD LAMB owners turn off the the post games.

93
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe don't watch, Maybe don't watch, be like be

94
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 2: like a lot of gamblers. I like the lines I

95
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 2: did my algorithm. Here's what it spit out in terms

96
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 2: of what I should bet and go do something else,

97
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 2: because otherwise you're gonna watch it, You're gonna be mad.

98
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 5: I think.

99
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 4: I think if here's someone like me and and you

100
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 4: have CD LAMB and you got eight for ninety three,

101
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,799
Speaker 4: that's about what you can ask for. Because even getting

102
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 4: in the end zone right now, it's difficult for the

103
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys.

104
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 5: The way that it is so like a.

105
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 4: Statline like that isn't isn't shouldn't be frustrating for you.

106
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 4: But when I see Ceedee Lamb on every single pass

107
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 4: do something and it's not, it's that almost like whiny teenager,

108
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 4: it just looks very immature, like come on, or like

109
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 4: we obviously see the passes five yards off the mark

110
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 4: or Cooper Rush was running for his life. I just

111
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 4: think it's a bad look. Smallest, smallest of the Cowboys problems.

112
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 4: By the way, I actually think the stadium deal, And

113
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 4: to your point, Mike, is more indicative and representative of

114
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 4: how the Cowboys actually are run and where you have

115
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 4: this great, beautiful facility that Jerry Jones was just bragging

116
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 4: about a couple of weeks ago, and what do we have, Well,

117
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 4: we have people who can't see thee lamb can't see

118
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 4: because it's in the sun. Now you have tiles falling

119
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 4: from the roof, one that you really haven't opened in

120
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 4: the last what year, two two years?

121
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, the door's October thirtieth, so too.

122
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 4: So you know here you decide to do that, and

123
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 4: it's like you see this beautiful what you think is

124
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 4: a palace, and then there's just problems everywhere. And that's

125
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 4: what I think the Dallas Cowboys are. You still have

126
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 4: the name brand, but when you even just start looking

127
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 4: on the surface, you see problems, and as you get

128
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 4: deeper in, there's more problems. And I think it's very

129
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 4: representative of who the Dallas Cowboys are right now.

130
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 2: One hundred percent eye on the prize facade. And when

131
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: it's printing money, you're not looking underneath the hood, right

132
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 2: If a business is still making money, you're not necessarily

133
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 2: going to look at where there are inefficiencies, where there's redundancy,

134
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 2: all of those things, unless you got to be truly

135
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 2: you know, responsive to shareholders whatever, and then and then

136
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,679
Speaker 2: maybe there's a whole other in But for Jerry Jones,

137
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 2: NFL continues to grow, his pockets continue to get lined.

138
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 2: People are showing up and paying money hand over fist.

139
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: I think the number of empty seats they had on

140
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 2: Monday night might also be something that will stick with

141
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 2: him as much as the point differentials and home losses

142
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: or that you know, sad fluttering piece of metal that

143
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 2: looked like the damn thing from Forrest Gump. Dude, when

144
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: the feathers started flying out. Dude, you know all that.

145
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 2: So that that's where we're at for him, right because

146
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 2: in the post game he's being asked about point differentials,

147
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 2: home losses, home no shows, and he sounds like a sullen,

148
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 2: beaten man. But then you're able to give him the

149
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: one two combination and come over the top about the

150
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 2: stadium falling apart. I mean, now you've just cut him

151
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 2: to the quick, because you know it just goes to

152
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 2: a pt Barnum like effect.

153
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 4: I'm going to say this about the Dallas Cowboys, I'm

154
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 4: going to read you a list then we'll get some

155
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 4: Texans fantasy stuff in a second. Because i was watching

156
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 4: the game and I'm thinking about it, and I'm like, like,

157
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 4: how did it? How did it get this bad? Because

158
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,239
Speaker 4: let's be honest, they struck it rich when they drafted

159
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 4: Dac when he did and then turned out to be

160
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 4: the quarterback that he was. Whether you like him or not,

161
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 4: it was a successful draft pick. And so then I

162
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 4: started to think of, you know, the Cowboys. I saw,

163
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 4: you know, Zach Martin got hurt and he's been dealing

164
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 4: with injuries as of late, and he's no doubt on

165
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 4: the back end of his career. But I'm like, Zach

166
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 4: Martin was a really good pick by them in the

167
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 4: draft when.

168
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 5: He was picked.

169
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 4: So dating back to twenty ten, they took Dez Bryant

170
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 4: in the first round. That was a pick that worked out.

171
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 4: Tyron Smith was their first round pick in twenty eleven.

172
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 4: That worked out well. Claybourne, the corner from LSU, probably

173
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 4: didn't work out, but then you had Travis Frederick. I

174
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 4: think that worked out until his career was cut short.

175
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 4: Zach Martin that worked out. Byron Joe was great for them,

176
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 4: and then he left for Miami via free agency. Ezekiel

177
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 4: Elliott was the twenty sixteen first round pick. Taco Charlton

178
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 4: was their first round pick out of Michigan in twenty

179
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 4: seventeen that didn't work out. Layton Vanderesh was their first

180
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: round pick in twenty eighteen, but that was mixed on

181
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 4: him because they gad potential but then injuries ended.

182
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 3: Up coming good years.

183
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, I mean it wasn't a long flash, but yeah,

184
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 2: and he gave you some big moments.

185
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 5: Yeah.

186
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 4: I think they chared the pick to Oakland for Amari

187
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 4: Cooper in twenty nineteen, Ceedee Lamb in twenty twenty, Micah

188
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 4: Parsons in twenty twenty one, Tyler Smith in twenty twenty two,

189
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 4: Mayzee Smith last year hasn't been great and Tyler got Mike.

190
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 4: They've hit on a lot of these first round picks.

191
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 4: And I'm sitting there and that's over the last fourteen years.

192
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 4: And obviously des Bryant's not in the league anymore, and

193
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 4: some of the names that I mentioned have moved on.

194
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 4: But they've hit on these picks, and for some reason,

195
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 4: they still haven't been able to build anything underneath it

196
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 4: or a R. But I couldn't even pick look at

197
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 4: the draft to be like, you know what, they've really

198
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 4: kind of messed this thing up, because they haven't. They've

199
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 4: They've probably had a better track record than all of

200
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 4: our favorite teams. So it was just crazy to me

201
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 4: in thinking back at it.

202
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 2: No, because it's interesting, right because even if you go

203
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 2: before Dak, you look at his predecessor, Romo was undrafted. Yeah,

204
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 2: for all that, all the hate and vitriol that he gets,

205
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 2: Like this guy was an undrafted player out of Eastern

206
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 2: Illinois and went on to the career that he did. So, like,

207
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 2: they've been able to find talent in spots, and that's

208
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 2: the curiosity, right is the first round when we always

209
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 2: talk about, well, you may not win your fantasy league

210
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 2: in a first round, but you could lose it. Here

211
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 2: for the Cowboys, they've they've hit. I mean, how many

212
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,599
Speaker 2: of those are you saying either as an incomplete or

213
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 2: a fail two? Yeah, I mean otherwise all of these

214
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 2: guys became pretty long term starters, and you could say

215
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 2: stars then you decide, you know what grade star they are.

216
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 2: So no pun intended with the Dallas Star of course,

217
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 2: but the rest of the roster process for this year,

218
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 2: it was the all in and still was trying. We

219
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 2: were trying to parse that out in the off season.

220
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 2: How much of this would have been solved if you

221
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 2: had a reasonable running back.

222
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's no.

223
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 2: Disrespect to the guys that are battling and what they

224
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 2: were and the histories and everything else. Tony Pollard we've

225
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 2: used pejorative terms on air and certainly in the fantasy realm.

226
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 2: But he was functional, he was serviceable. He was better

227
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 2: than average. Right, one thousand yard rusher. Was it sexy? No,

228
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 2: because again, to get to a thousand yards these days

229
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 2: means one thing, one very important thing. You were available, Yes,

230
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 2: and that was one thing that Tony Pollard gave you.

231
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 2: As a runner and a receiver, you could get your

232
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 2: twelve to fifteen touches and be reasonably assured of this

233
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 2: is going to give you some kind of balance. At

234
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 2: this point, they've got nothing.

235
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 4: I'll say this, Mike was on the Tony Poller train

236
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 4: way earlier than many people, and they got good years

237
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 4: out of him. And it wasn't until he you know,

238
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 4: snapped his ankle against the Niners in that playoff game.

239
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 4: That didn't seem like he really came back last year,

240
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 4: and I don't know if that had a I think

241
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 4: it had an effect on to be perfectly honest with you,

242
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 4: because he wasn't the same back last year, and it

243
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 4: allowed them to let him, you know, walk away then.

244
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,719
Speaker 5: This year and go to the Tennessee Titans. And he's

245
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 5: doing fine with the Titans.

246
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 4: You know, maybe not as great as he was doing

247
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 4: with the Cowboys, but yeah, just there's.

248
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 2: He's years ahead of whatever they've got now. Yeah, yeah, right,

249
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 2: I mean that's really all it comes down to.

250
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 5: One hundred percent.

251
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 4: So when they let Zeke go and then brought him

252
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 4: back two years later, it just did not make any

253
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 4: sense and had no one there to replace it. But

254
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 4: it just it's it's representative, like this team looks like

255
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 4: cosmetically and on the outside and it's all flash and

256
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 4: then you get into the to maybe the guts of

257
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 4: the team and it's it's just not there.

258
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

259
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 2: And the curiosity for this game was until the the

260
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 2: big gaff, you know, and everybody like, hey, lineman, go down,

261
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 2: go down, you've got the ball. The Cowboys were in

262
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 2: this game. They were hanging around. Was it pretty No,

263
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: But they were hanging around curiosity for Turpin and how

264
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 2: he gets used obviously a lot of it on the big,

265
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 2: big scoring play right eighty six yards of a score,

266
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 2: three receptions. The loss of Ferguson very early in the game.

267
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 2: I think he would have been in a bunch of

268
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 2: lineups today, usual backup quarterback kind of syndrome of let's

269
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 2: go find the tight end in safety valve. So schoonbacker

270
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 2: came in six fifty six for him. But yeah, it's

271
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 2: it's tough sledding right now.

272
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what we had a we had a

273
00:13:53,880 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 4: scenario in my fantasy league, and this is the problem.

274
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,199
Speaker 4: And now I understand it because for years I never

275
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 4: was in two leagues, and now I'm in two leagues,

276
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 4: and I can't remember what rules are for what league,

277
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 4: even though I feel like I've made the rules for

278
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,959
Speaker 4: most of one league, because that's our twenty seven year league.

279
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 5: The issues that I was, the issue.

280
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 4: That I was gonna say was we had a guy

281
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 4: who was down like three point eight points and he

282
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 4: had Brandon Aubrey. So you make this sixty four yarder? Yeah,

283
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 4: I thought like and I thought in our league was

284
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 4: four points, but our site said only three. But anyway,

285
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 4: puts him within a point, and then you get the

286
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 4: penalty and the Cowboys take it off the board. They

287
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 4: obviously go for it on fourth and two, wipe it out.

288
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 4: I wonder if there was anybody else who thought that

289
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 4: they won their game, because you know, Brandon Aubrey had

290
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 4: made that kick and then then had Mike McCarthy take

291
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 4: it away only to never give it back.

292
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 6: Well, remember he also missed a kick earlier in the

293
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 6: game too, so that he missed was like a forty yarder, yeah,

294
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 6: something like that.

295
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 2: But he hits a sixty four yard Well, the hell's

296
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 2: taking that off the board, and in a lot of

297
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 2: leagues that would have been six point four points. Sure

298
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 2: got as much as a lot of second running bags

299
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 2: are scoring in the lat I.

300
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 4: Just was thinking to myself, man, because that's also the point.

301
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 4: And by the way, Mike McCarthy did make the right choice.

302
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 4: You have to take You can't you get a first

303
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 4: you get a fifteen yard penalty and a first down,

304
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 4: you're in a.

305
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 5: In a ten point game, you think.

306
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 4: You're I mean, honestly, then if it wasn't fourth and two,

307
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 4: because they got to fourth and two on like a

308
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 4: third and thirteen when they threw past the ceedee lamb

309
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 4: for ten yards or whatever. You probably still kick the

310
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 4: field goal in that scenario, but man to make the

311
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 4: kick and then have it taken off just to kicking

312
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 4: the nuts, just to kick in the nuts.

313
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 5: All right, we need to take a time out.

314
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 4: We haven't even talked about the Texans yet, so we

315
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 4: will because I think there is a bit of a

316
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 4: conversation there, sure so much more. He is Mike Carmon,

317
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 4: I'm Dan byer Ian, Roddy's here Texans, and yeah, some

318
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 4: week twelve craziness.

319
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 5: That's next year, and I want your flax. It is

320
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 5: iy air flex.

321
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 4: He's Mike Harmon, I'm Dan byer Ian Roddy's our executive producer.

322
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 4: Big news in the NFL on Monday coming from the Giants,

323
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 4: a quarterback change being made. We'll talk about that in

324
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 4: a second, but we were going to touch on the

325
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 4: Houston Texans, the Stefan Diggs less. But now you have

326
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 4: Nico Collins Houston Texans. Tank Dell's there, Robert Woods is there,

327
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 4: Mechi's there. But maybe most importantly for CJ. Straud is

328
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 4: that Joe Mixon is there. Because the hat trick on

329
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 4: Monday night, Mike, and Joe Mixon seems like a whole

330
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 4: new football player with the Houston Texans.

331
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 2: To one of the few things I'll take credit for

332
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 2: on the scorecard. He was number one at running back,

333
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: Yes he was, and he dominated.

334
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 4: And you had Nico Collins at number one, and he

335
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 4: may have been somewhat close to that first touchdown was

336
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 4: not wiped off on the first play?

337
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 2: You do mean when they had two hundred and fifty

338
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:58,479
Speaker 2: yards of offense to score seven points. No, obviously I exaggerate,

339
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 2: but yes, it's curious, right, So Joe Mixon having his time.

340
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 3: We know the cost to bring him there was minuscule.

341
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 2: We were talking about draft evaluations, trades, all those kind

342
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: of things, just you know, a bucket of balls, more

343
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 2: or less. And now you look at the year, he's

344
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 2: having touchdowns every time he hits the field. In this one,

345
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 2: I don't know if you stayed and watched till the end, Dan,

346
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 2: with four minutes left, he was doing a meet and

347
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 2: greet in the end zone, literally shaking hands, taking selfies.

348
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,479
Speaker 2: There's still about three minutes fifty seconds on the clock

349
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 2: after his third touchdown run. So all of that to say,

350
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 2: a guy obviously having a lot of fun. Contrasts that

351
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 2: to his former team and that long slow walk and

352
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,199
Speaker 2: the thousand yard stare of Joe Burrow after that loss

353
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 2: to the Chargers. You want to talk about everything going

354
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 2: and coming up roses for Joe Mixon right now, He's

355
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 2: just been fantastic. And that's with questions about the offensive line.

356
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 2: You know what a great running back can make all

357
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 2: of those disappear real fast.

358
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 6: You know, With how close the Bengals games have been,

359
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 6: I wonder if Joe Mixon would would honestly make the

360
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 6: difference for them this year.

361
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,360
Speaker 2: But that's the thing, right, I mean, McPherson kicks.

362
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 3: It's interesting, what do we have four.

363
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 2: Different instances of close games where he's had an issue

364
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 2: and while they've had pretty good success with their run

365
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 2: game and Brown's a player, I think we can all

366
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 2: agree to that. Yeah, would that margin be different if

367
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,919
Speaker 2: old Joe Mixon. I keep wanting to call Mojo Nixon,

368
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 2: but that's a music act, and you know I'll send

369
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 2: folks down that rabble another time.

370
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say no.

371
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 4: The reason being is, do you know how many in

372
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 4: since you posed the question, do you know how many

373
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 4: one hundred yard games Jill Mixon had with the Bengals last.

374
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 3: Year, he had did he have any?

375
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 4: He had one one? It was the final week of

376
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 4: the season against Cleveland in a game that for the

377
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 4: Bengals didn't matter, they weren't going to the playoffs, and

378
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 4: he ends up with fourteen carries one hundred and eleven yards,

379
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 4: you know when over the Cleveland Browns, who didn't care

380
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 4: about the game either. So the maybe I can't remember

381
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 4: the playoffs Innreio with the Bengals obviously didn't make the

382
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 4: playoffs last year. Point being is he had won this

383
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 4: year with the Houston Texans. I think it's been every

384
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 4: game but about two, and I know he was dinged

385
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 4: up for a couple of them, but I mean it's

386
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 4: he's a different guy, and I actually think that number one,

387
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 4: it's the team. And yet in the games that he's played,

388
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 4: he's only he has not gone over one hundred yards twice.

389
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,239
Speaker 4: It was against the Lions, had forty six yards and

390
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 4: then against Mike yar Bears in Week two, but he

391
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 4: also got hurt in that game.

392
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 2: But even in that game against Detroit, still finished with

393
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 2: ninety total yards. Yeah, well for two catches forty four

394
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 2: yards and scored. So he's scored in every game except

395
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 2: the Bears. That's when they heard him early in that game.

396
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 2: Remember the hip drop tackle that took him down. Yeah,

397
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 2: so there you go. That's how you stopped Joe Mixon

398
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four.

399
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 4: So my point is is, I think that him not

400
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 4: going back to Cincinnati, and it felt like that was

401
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 4: kind of destined to happen anyway when he was there

402
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 4: last year, that his stay wasn't going to be long,

403
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 4: and so maybe there's a bit of a resurgence. I

404
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 4: think Cincinnati, he's still got some problems of their own.

405
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 4: Maybe it would it takes some a load off that

406
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 4: defense because they've got nothing this year in Cincinnati on

407
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 4: that side of the ball. But I just the Texans

408
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 4: have been searching for a guy for so long and

409
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 4: now they finally got somewhat of a running game and

410
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 4: it's in the former Joe Mixon. I think he had

411
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 4: something to prove. So I don't think he has something

412
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,439
Speaker 4: to prove if he's back in Cincinnati. That's just my

413
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 4: two cents.

414
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 5: There you go.

415
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, so he's he's rolling the Do you have concerns

416
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 4: about CJ.

417
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 5: Stroud?

418
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 4: Oh?

419
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, two touchdowns in five weeks.

420
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 5: Hell yeah, yeah.

421
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 2: Now part of that is obviously the presence of Mixing,

422
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 2: so you're you're gonna you know, it's the yin and

423
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 2: the yang, and he doesn't run a ton, so it's

424
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 2: not like he's gonna with the exception of that game

425
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 2: against the Jets where he had the fifty nine yards,

426
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 2: he's not a guy that's gonna take off and call

427
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 2: his own number and certainly in and around the goal line.

428
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 2: And this is the good, the bad, the ugly when

429
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 2: it comes to having a guy like Mixing on your

430
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 2: squad is that he does everything.

431
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 3: So you're not.

432
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 2: Taking him off the field in short yardage. You're not

433
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 2: taking him off field and passing downs. He's a guy

434
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 2: that you can run and defenses have to try to

435
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 2: figure out exactly how you're gonna deploy him, which is great.

436
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 2: So you're not getting any of the rushing touchdowns that

437
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 2: you might you know, even goal line plunges you know,

438
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 2: brotherly shove like products. But yeah, so you're not even

439
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 2: getting those savers. So two in five weeks.

440
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 4: Dan I gosh, the Stefan Diggs injury hurts, But again

441
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 4: there's something about you know him and tank down not

442
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 4: on the right page, Dalton Schultz that thought maybe Wou'd

443
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 4: be a little bit more of a factor. But there

444
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 4: is something going on. But thank goodness for Joe Mixon.

445
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 4: And you know the other mixing thing the speed that

446
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 4: he showed, you know, just on you know, on his

447
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 4: first touchdown, on the separation. He knew that he had power,

448
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 4: but the ability to separate. And I did not see

449
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 4: the third touchdown because I had to give a three

450
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 4: year old the bath who didn't want to take a bath.

451
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 4: So if you think the Cowboys defense had their handful

452
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,879
Speaker 4: hands full on Monday night, yeah, try my shoes.

453
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,199
Speaker 2: Well, I mean you still have his zone. I mean

454
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 2: you still have a two on one advantage.

455
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 5: Yes, that's true.

456
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 2: Well in theory, so did they had eleven on one

457
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,360
Speaker 2: once he got to the open field. They couldn't catch him.

458
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 2: Joe Mixon, not your son, although I'm sure your son

459
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 2: in the open field is a handful. But yeah, for CJ. Stroud, like,

460
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 2: it's just questions we've been asking. I think along the

461
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,680
Speaker 2: way right, the the up and down nature of the

462
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 2: offense part of it, digs part of it. Dell, certainly

463
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 2: Nicocollins came out like a house of fire early in

464
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 2: the season, and then he was gone. So they've weathered

465
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 2: some some some storms. Talked about the offensive line and

466
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 2: beyond Caleb Williams, he's the most sacked quarterback in the league.

467
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 2: And this is where I always love the discussion and

468
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 2: trying to assess blame in the blame pie of quarterback

469
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 2: versus all right, coverages versus you know, the quarterback holding

470
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 2: on too long, right, we get the lot of it.

471
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,160
Speaker 2: It's just well, the offensive line is terrible. It's like, well, yeah,

472
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 2: I think I think we've seen some play both for

473
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,199
Speaker 2: he and for Williams going back to Chicago second. But

474
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 2: then it becomes the alright, is he holding the ball

475
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,959
Speaker 2: longer hoping for separation that isn't normally there because he

476
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 2: doesn't have digs, he doesn't have collins, Like the stuff

477
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 2: where he could do the timing and get it out

478
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 2: isn't there because it's second receivers that are trying to

479
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 2: fight through maybe a little bit of press up front

480
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 2: and all of those kind of things. So like that's

481
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 2: securio and missing a couple of games of mixing certainly

482
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 2: doesn't help things. So like all of that to say concern,

483
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 2: and he's right now, nothing better than a QB two.

484
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's gonna be interesting to see them for the

485
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 4: rest of the way because they have a two game

486
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 4: leading the division. But they swept the Colts this year,

487
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 4: so that's already taken care of. So basically their lead

488
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,479
Speaker 4: is three. You get to face you haven't played the

489
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 4: Titans yet, you get to play them twice down the stretch.

490
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 4: You still have another game against Jacksonville. You would assume

491
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 4: that those are wins said for the Chiefs Ravens games

492
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:41,959
Speaker 4: that you have coming up. You also have another one

493
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 4: against the Dolphins, but that's your remaining schedule if you're

494
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 4: the Texans. So yeah, it's just kind of they have

495
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 4: their bike and they have one of the bis in

496
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 4: Week fourteen you know as well. But there's it'll be

497
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 4: interesting to see because I think that they've kind of

498
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 4: got things wrapped up and they're in a spot where

499
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 4: you're not going to challenge for the top spot, so

500
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 4: it'll be interesting to see how they operate over these

501
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 4: finals six weeks.

502
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.

503
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 2: It is fun though, right, You've got Tennessee next, then

504
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,439
Speaker 2: at Jacksonville the bye week, and then you got the

505
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 2: Sandwich effect with Miami, Kansas City, Baltimore with Kansas City

506
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 2: on the road before a week eighteen that nobody uses

507
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 2: against Tennessee.

508
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 4: Yeah sorry, And there by the way, they're in those

509
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 4: in that Christmas Game fours with the Chiefs, Ravens and Steelers,

510
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 4: or they're playing on the Saturday so they can play

511
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 4: on that Wednesday of Christmas Day. Curious if that's going

512
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 4: to have any effect or if that could cause injuries.

513
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 4: But for the NFL to make it work, they had

514
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 4: the smart of them to do it. I don't know

515
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 4: why they don't do it for other matchups as well,

516
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 4: but they're able to make it so that Chiefs game

517
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 4: is on a Saturday, and then they'll have the Ravens

518
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 4: on Christmas Day on that Wednesday.

519
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 5: But who knows, who knows how important those games will be.

520
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think CJ.

521
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 2: Stroud and all those guys pull an NBA move and

522
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 2: just say it's a Saturday game.

523
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:00,959
Speaker 3: We're not playing.

524
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones isn't playing. He's the third string now and

525
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 4: yeah a good run. He did have a good run.

526
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 4: Tommy DeVito is now the quarterback man. What's what's old

527
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 4: is new again? Deja vu? All over again. Any cliche

528
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,439
Speaker 4: that you want. But now, what do we think of

529
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 4: the giants of the da Vido and Tracy and Malik,

530
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 4: neighbors and whatnot.

531
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 2: I don't know how much of a downgrade it is

532
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 2: at this point, right in terms of what you're going

533
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 2: to get from Neighbors and what you're going to get

534
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 2: from Tracy. Maybe we get a little bit from the

535
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:40,920
Speaker 2: secondary receivers that have been working with him, second, third team, whatever.

536
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 2: The fact that you bypass your number two quarterback is

537
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 2: kind of funny. But you know, I heard the argument

538
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 2: and saw it in the socials a lot of like

539
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 2: this would have saved it and you would have been

540
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 2: able to get Barkley.

541
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 3: He's like, no, I was done.

542
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 2: Sure like that. That's that's not moving moving mountains at

543
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 2: the point. But give the fans what they want. They want,

544
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 2: Tommy Cutt, let's go go and get after it. I

545
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 2: don't think it substantively changes any of the fantasy fortunes.

546
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 2: Guys you were playing, You're still gonna play. Yeah, at

547
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 2: least from where I sit, like the erratic nature, while

548
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 2: Jones doesn't. And I use this with Smith on Monday Night.

549
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 2: While while Jones doesn't have the egregious low lights of

550
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 2: what we've seen from Will Levis. The body of work

551
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 2: suggests if guys were performing with him under center, they'll

552
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 2: be just fine in his absence.

553
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:42,119
Speaker 4: Now, Executive producer Ian Roddy has a trade that someone

554
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 4: passed along to him that they wanted reviewed on the podcast.

555
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 5: Is that correct?

556
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:49,120
Speaker 3: Yeah? Correct?

557
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 6: So our coworker here at FSR shay, you could.

558
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 4: Have just said, like Bill in Kansas City tweeted in,

559
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:57,360
Speaker 4: but hey, that's all good.

560
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 3: They in Kansas City, Well we'll keep two versions. So yeah,

561
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 3: Bill in Kansas City.

562
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 6: He wanted to know if Cedric Tillman and Malik Neighbors

563
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 6: would be who he's getting and then Bucky Irving and

564
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 6: DK Metcalf would be who he's giving up. So what

565
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 6: do you guys think? I wasn't sure exactly how to respond,

566
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 6: but I feel like I personally lean towards the Bucky

567
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 6: Irving DK Metcalf side.

568
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd rather have those two.

569
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 3: What do you think, Mike?

570
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,239
Speaker 2: I look at it. I mean a lot of it

571
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 2: comes down to what's your depth, right, what's your depth

572
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 2: at running back? Because if you're losing Bucky Irving but

573
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 2: you have another plug in that's a fifteen touch a game. Guy.

574
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 2: I'm good with it because the two receivers coming back.

575
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 2: So long as James Winston stays upright, I mean, he's

576
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 2: gonna keep winging the ball. So Tilman has value even

577
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 2: with Elijah Moore there, who will talk about again in

578
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 2: a minute. And like I said, I yeah, Metcalf's better

579
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 2: than any of them. But I think if you need

580
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 2: help wide receiver wise, you know that double up is

581
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 2: not a terrible way to go.

582
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 6: It just feels like Metcalf and Irving are just two

583
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 6: starters for you right there at different positions. Tillman, I'm

584
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 6: not sure I'm starting every week. Still kind of need

585
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 6: to see it from him. But again, it goes back

586
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 6: to roster and you're right, well, yeah, he didn't send

587
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 6: the rest of his roster, so it's.

588
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 5: Hard to who's the best player on this deal.

589
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 3: To me, it's Metcalf.

590
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I thought too, And so that you know,

591
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 4: so the package getting back, and I yeah, I think that.

592
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 4: I think that's the side that you lean on. So

593
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 4: Bill in Kansas City, I'd go with DK Metcalf and

594
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 4: Bucky Irving, not Shay.

595
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 5: In the editing room, not at all, not.

596
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 3: At all, No, I think not even at all.

597
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 4: No, not I yeah, I just at this point and

598
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 4: trade deadline it's going to be coming up as well.

599
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so folks, you want to send those in. Fire

600
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 2: him in at Dan Byron, Fox at Ian Roddy, underscore

601
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: at Swollen Dome and uh, what did we have on

602
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 2: Blue Sky? You're at Dan Byer, Yes, I'm at Mike

603
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 2: Carmon and Ian will be at Ian Roddy. No underscore

604
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 2: unless that British guy heard the podcast.

605
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 5: At some point.

606
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 4: And by the way, Mike Ian survived in our Guillotine

607
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,080
Speaker 4: League this week without playing a quarterback.

608
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 6: Hung on for another week dead man Kyler murray on

609
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 6: by and never replaced him.

610
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 4: Blasphemy to Jordan on his bench? Did you just completely

611
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 4: forget Ian that I.

612
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 6: Put in a claim for Jordan Love earlier in the week,

613
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 6: But I thought that how guillotine works is if you'd

614
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 6: put it in after the initial waves, you don't get

615
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 6: them until the next week. So I think I kind

616
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 6: of treated it as a that was just what it

617
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 6: was going to be, like. I just didn't was I

618
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 6: like my quarterback quarterback, but my guys came through t Higgins,

619
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 6: huge game, Lad mcconkee, huge game.

620
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 3: Oh the rest of my guys pulled their weight. So

621
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 3: I'm like, I said, I'm a dead man walking right now.

622
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 6: I shouldn't shouldn't still be here in the Guillotine League,

623
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 6: but I am.

624
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 5: Did you think I was actually mad at you?

625
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 4: On Sunday night when I was talking Oh okay, good,

626
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 4: good good, I was like, I hope Ian doesn't think

627
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 4: I'm serious with all this. And then T Higgins comes

628
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 4: and saves the day. What do you know? Yeah, and

629
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 4: the lad Ladd had his work all right, Mike Rmon's

630
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 4: going to save your day with some waiver wire pickups

631
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 4: h plus a little bit of what is a Funky

632
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 4: Week twelve? Michael dive into that as well. This is

633
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 4: I want your flex welcome back. It is I want

634
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 4: your Flex. He's Mike Krmen, I'm Dan Byer. That is

635
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 4: Ian Roddy. The trade discussion even happened in the break

636
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 4: as we were breaking down the trade, the trade from

637
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 4: Bill in Kansas City. You know, the the whole point

638
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 4: about the best player, as I was saying, was DK

639
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 4: metcalf on this. Now it may not be in the future,

640
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 4: but I think it's right now, when you think about

641
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 4: your quarterback, Like we all love Molik Neighbors and what

642
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 4: he's done with the Giants, but when Tommy DeVito's your quarterback,

643
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 4: there's no way that you could put him above Dk

644
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 4: Metcalf right now.

645
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 6: Just can't do it him or Daniel Jones at this point.

646
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 6: Isn't that like that was to Mike's point earlier in

647
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 6: the segment. Nothing we've seen from Daniel Jones has shown

648
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 6: that putting anyone else under center is going to you know,

649
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 6: provide worst really, But it's.

650
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 4: The only thing that we do know is Daniel Jones

651
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 4: would just always throw it to Mylik Neighbors at least

652
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 4: we felt like at some point. Maybe not as much,

653
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 4: and Neighbors has been you know, in and out at

654
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 4: times as well, but at least we see what Geno

655
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 4: Smith can can do with the footballs we actually saw

656
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 4: against the forty nine ers on Sunday.

657
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 2: So I didn't know where you were going to go

658
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 2: with your Gino as soon as you went down the

659
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 2: Gino Smith Highway there, Dan, I didn't know which, I

660
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 2: didn't know which part of the fork in the road

661
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 2: you were talking.

662
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 4: I am, I am all about Geno Smith. I just

663
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,959
Speaker 4: but I think he gets a lot of criticism in Seattle.

664
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 4: Well that because again, like people still look at him

665
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 4: as Geno Smith, and the people that want to do

666
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 4: that will point to the interceptions. He's not the first

667
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 4: person in the NFL to try to take on more

668
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 4: than you can chew, sure, you know, and he and

669
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 4: the line has been a mess this year at times.

670
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,239
Speaker 5: He does try to do a little bit more than

671
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:21,719
Speaker 5: he should.

672
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 4: But I'll tell you he can get the football to

673
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 4: the guys that need to get the football, and that

674
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 4: is as long as your offensive coordinator isn't holding you

675
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 4: back like Shane Waldron seemed to do last year.

676
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 5: We saw what JSN does.

677
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 4: He's had a great couple of weeks, and even DK

678
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 4: coming back from his knee injury. I think I think

679
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 4: Geno's the best quarterback, you know, by a long shot.

680
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 5: Over those two.

681
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 3: I just want to yell, G G.

682
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what, honestly this is. And I said

683
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 4: this on the air on Monday. The win that the

684
00:33:56,640 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 4: Seahawks had over the forty nine ers was I didn't

685
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 4: realize it at the time, but it broke a malaise

686
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 4: of about nine or ten years of just of the

687
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 4: Super Bowl hangover of the Pete Carroll era of trying

688
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 4: to run it back, and I get it, like I

689
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 4: like I. You know, they had they had a core

690
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 4: of a team, but once the interception was made at

691
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 4: the one yard line, it was over, like that was it.

692
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,799
Speaker 5: That was that was the end of it to be

693
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 5: able to make it back.

694
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 4: They never got back to an NFC championship game after that,

695
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 4: and these last couple of years, as we've talked on

696
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 4: this podcast, you know, Mike, it just it just kind

697
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 4: of became the same old thing, and there was any

698
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 4: It wasn't anything new. I don't think this team is

699
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 4: particularly great, but for them to take a forty nine

700
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 4: ers team that has something bigger to play for, and

701
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 4: they've got their own problems that we'll get into on

702
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 4: the next podcast, but it was an actual win that

703
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 4: gave me a different feel or a feel that I

704
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 4: haven't felt in a long time.

705
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,479
Speaker 5: It may not matter in the end, maybe they.

706
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 4: Don't make the playoffs, but it was like it felt

707
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 4: like the really first real important win of this new era.

708
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 2: A huge win. Huge win sends ripple effects and and

709
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 2: for anybody looking at the the House of San Francisco.

710
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 2: You know, it's like siding was falling off. Owing to

711
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 2: our earlier conversation, Right, all of the off season stuff does.

712
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 2: Doesn't live in a vacuum, right, it does circle back.

713
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 3: And you've had.

714
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 2: A number of injuries, You've had a number of of

715
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,399
Speaker 2: just personnel problems, and there seems to be a lot

716
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 2: of infighting and unrest and it's all coming to bear

717
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 2: because it's not as easy and now you potentially move

718
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 2: forward with Bosa being banged up on the on the

719
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 2: defensive side means you've got to find other people to

720
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,319
Speaker 2: cover up. So all of it, you know, kind of

721
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 2: shuffles a bit, and offensively, you could see guys are frustrated.

722
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 2: Guys are frustrated, so the door is open to go

723
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 2: take it and now it's a it'll be a fun

724
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 2: battle down the stree retch for that division.

725
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 6: It can't have helped either that Gino did the night

726
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 6: night celebration on the Niners fans, because sure those are

727
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 6: Warriors fans.

728
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 3: It's the same fan base.

729
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,439
Speaker 4: Have that done on them, man, absolutely, I will say that.

730
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 4: And Tom Kim did it in the President's Cup. It's

731
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 4: not the same in golfer football as it is in basketball,

732
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,800
Speaker 4: it has a has a different feel.

733
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 3: What is the thought of it that counts? The thought

734
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 3: that counts?

735
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 5: Yes, nice to be done all right?

736
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 4: Week twelve is here before Mike gets to his waiver wire.

737
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 4: What's the first thing you thought of, Mike when you

738
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:40,240
Speaker 4: saw the Week twelve slate stinks?

739
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 2: Six teams on, six teams on bod. Yeah, most over

740
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 2: unders are floating at forty one or forty two, and

741
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 2: then you've got three or four games.

742
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 3: That are on the high end.

743
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 2: But like there's from a straight football watching perspective, there's

744
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 2: not a lot of attractive matchups this week. I think

745
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 2: your Seahawks are probably the final three games that are

746
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 2: on the board are probably the most interesting. Sure are

747
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 2: actually four because I'll grab the forty nine ers in

748
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 2: Green Bay, but Arizona, Seattle, Philadelphia Rams, and Baltimore Chargers,

749
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 2: like those games are great. The others all have their

750
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 2: their regionalism to them that'll get excited. But I mean,

751
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 2: we've got multiple games with double digit point spreads for

752
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 2: crying out loud.

753
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, and let's be honest, at Lanta, Buffalo and Cincinnati,

754
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 4: who are three of the six teams on buy do

755
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 4: have significant fantasy factors, and the Jets are on by

756
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 4: as well, so there's at least what you.

757
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:43,799
Speaker 2: Guys, you would have been playing there, I know. Break Yeah, yeah,

758
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 2: you get to take the weekend off and go hang

759
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 2: out with family and friends and not have to watch that.

760
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 4: Who do you like Waiver wire wise? Oh, by the way,

761
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,879
Speaker 4: the replay of the Texans Cowboys game is happening now,

762
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 4: so Joe Mixon is celebrating on my on my screen

763
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 4: as record.

764
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,879
Speaker 5: Yes, as we record this podcast.

765
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 3: So escalated quickly. I like that.

766
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 4: I think they're going to pull this out. Who do

767
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,479
Speaker 4: you like for Waiver Wire pickups? In Week twelve?

768
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the quarterback physician first. We

769
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 2: still have at least a third of leagues depend no

770
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,919
Speaker 2: matter where you play where bo Nicks is still floating around,

771
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 2: and you look at his numbers over the last six

772
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,760
Speaker 2: seven weeks. When you add the twenty nine rushing yards

773
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 2: per game plus the touchdowns that he's given you on

774
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 2: the ground, everything's starting to click. Still always reticent and

775
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 2: the Sean Payton with a genius whatever. I'm not on

776
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 2: his payroll, so I don't have to say it, but

777
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 2: Bo Nick's playing good football. Right now you're looking at

778
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,799
Speaker 2: Geno Smith owned in fifty percent of leagues, right, Still

779
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,919
Speaker 2: a lot of opportunity. Even with all those weapons built,

780
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 2: folks have been reticent to climb on board Anthony Richardson.

781
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 2: It's the stash him. I don't know, Ian, you can

782
00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 2: speak to it better watching and we watched the Jets

783
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 2: defense crumble since Salah left. But I wouldn't have expected

784
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 2: Richardson to be able to put up that kind of

785
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 2: performance even you know, a couple of weeks benching whatever.

786
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 2: He looked like a different guy.

787
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, he definitely did. But I don't know. The Jets

788
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 6: defense has been getting gashed all year, so they're so

789
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 6: quick to just fold and give up when things start

790
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 6: going downhill. So I want to see it again from

791
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,399
Speaker 6: Richardson before I'm ready to actually feel good about him

792
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,240
Speaker 6: starting in our fantasy lineup.

793
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's there's.

794
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 4: There's there's one thing in like, you know, being being

795
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 4: gashed by Josh Allen and Russell Wilson, but now it's

796
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:47,240
Speaker 4: been Kyler Murray even you know, those those things happen.

797
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 5: But Anthony Richardson led a game winning drive. Yeah, like like.

798
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 4: That's like the Jets had an opportunity to win, and

799
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 4: I bet you they felt that they were going to

800
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,239
Speaker 4: win even when they had to, you know, punt it

801
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 4: away and get a stop, and then it just doesn't happen.

802
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 4: And it's like, oh, so this is how it gets worse. Yeah,

803
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 4: Like this is exactly.

804
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:08,280
Speaker 5: How it happened.

805
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 3: They find ways to lose every week.

806
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, at this point, it's it's rostering, right, it's not

807
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 2: even Look, it's not all starters, it's roster. We get

808
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 2: down into running backs, wide outs, we play defense a

809
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 2: little bit because we're hitting that point of the season

810
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 2: as well. And I know, folks, and I think rightly so,

811
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 2: and I've certainly been an advocate for it. Benches are

812
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 2: getting smaller because they should be, right, we should be

813
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 2: able to go to the waiver wire in week twelve.

814
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 2: And I get it, some league shut it off in

815
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 2: and around the playoffs and whatever, but you should be

816
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 2: able to go to the waiver wire and find someone

817
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 2: who's at least serviceable, whereas historically it's I've stashed everybody,

818
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:50,439
Speaker 2: and you go across twelve twelve team leagues, and now

819
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 2: with the advent of IR slots, it's a whole other mess, right,

820
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 2: because if you still have a deep bench and you

821
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 2: can have guys in your ir slot that May you

822
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 2: wouldn't elevate back to a starter, but you can hold

823
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:06,400
Speaker 2: them hostage there. Like there's a lot of gamesmanship that

824
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 2: is allowed that I'm not a fan of. To a

825
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 2: tongue of Iloa as long as he's playing. He's got

826
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 2: New England this week, so there is a potential spot

827
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 2: starter for you there. Drake May has shown out a

828
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 2: little bit going on the other side against Miami. He's

829
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,719
Speaker 2: virtually unowned, so there's all your quarterback plays go a

830
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,600
Speaker 2: little bit deeper. We look at the running back advocated

831
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 2: for Trey Benson coming out of the bye week. Remember

832
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 2: he had a twelve touch eighty seven yard game before

833
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 2: the bye week. Rashawn Johnson. I think under the new regime,

834
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 2: you're going to see a little bit more of him

835
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 2: and more balance in the force with Waldron gone Caleb Williams. Again,

836
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 2: it's a one game sample size, it's still in l

837
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 2: but there were things to take away from the way

838
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 2: the offense operated that there seemed to be some direction

839
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,880
Speaker 2: in purpose, even if eber Flues overruled things at the

840
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 2: end to cost them a potential win, So I'll take that.

841
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 2: So Rashawn Johnson eleven carries forty one yards back to

842
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:14,799
Speaker 2: his usual red zone goal line kind of performance. Talk

843
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,359
Speaker 2: about a couple of wide receivers, Elijah Moore twenty nine

844
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 2: targets the last three weeks, westbrook A Keene five touchdowns

845
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 2: in his last six games. Like complete, but anyway, with

846
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 2: six teams on buys, the number of guys that are hurt.

847
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,000
Speaker 2: You want to talk Boomer bus chaos, but for weekly fantasy,

848
00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 2: let's go, Dan.

849
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 5: What do they have? Two for one to seventeen? Here

850
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 5: you go.

851
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:46,280
Speaker 2: Fifteen catches twenty five yards, two hundred and fifty six yards.

852
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 2: Fifteen catches twenty five targets, two hundred and fifty six yards.

853
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 2: Quentin Johnston. Again, opportunities were there. Cincinnati, the corners made

854
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 2: a couple of really good plays to knock down balls

855
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 2: that we're just a whisper from being big time completions,

856
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,279
Speaker 2: and Herbert becoming more and more confident putting the ball

857
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:10,760
Speaker 2: out to him. Xavier Legette. Yeah, we're actually gonna recommend

858
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 2: a guy from Carolina, right, seventeen targets, eleven receptions his

859
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 2: last couple of outings so we got him with Tobby

860
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 2: Devido coming under center and play him at your own peril.

861
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 2: If you win a matchup with it, send me the roster.

862
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 2: But wander Wandel Robinson once again is potentially a guy

863
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,439
Speaker 2: that we see as a dump off option as we go.

864
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 2: And then I'd be remiss if we didn't get a

865
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:40,360
Speaker 2: couple of tight ends. And in Disley go back to

866
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 2: the charge thirty three targets over the last five weeks,

867
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 2: and then zach Ertz six catches, forty seven yards and

868
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 2: a touchdown against Philly. I know that game got away,

869
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 2: but over the last four weeks, twenty seven targets.

870
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:54,640
Speaker 3: All we can shoot for is opportunity.

871
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 4: Gentlemen, Okay, I'm going to leave you with this. Do

872
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 4: you want to say anything about the Bears and eber

873
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 4: Flus anything more than anything else you want to get

874
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 4: off your chest?

875
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 2: Well, we can do it here. We can do it

876
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 2: on the Wednesday episode two. Okay, because because really, you

877
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 2: guys can just go to sleep and I'll still be

878
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 2: talking when you wake up.

879
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 4: Perfect, Because I have a real life analogy that I

880
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 4: think I can draw towards what we saw on Sunday.

881
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 5: I kind of take this I will try to.

882
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,760
Speaker 4: I will try to and maybe we can work shop

883
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,359
Speaker 4: it and see if it works. I really haven't thought

884
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,759
Speaker 4: it through, but there's there was a little thought in there.

885
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 4: But we'll dive into it. So it's a perfect this

886
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 4: let's go perfect place to end. So we talked a

887
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,919
Speaker 4: lot of cowboys, a little bit of Texans, a little

888
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:48,799
Speaker 4: bit of giants, and then on the episode coming up,

889
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 4: Michael get his frustrations office chest about the Bears. We'll

890
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:56,280
Speaker 4: dive more into the forty nine ers. Plus there's something

891
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 4: missing in the NFL in twenty twenty four, and Mike

892
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 4: Carmon's gonna talk you what that is. Well, we'll talk

893
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,400
Speaker 4: about it then, Ian Roddy, before we let you go

894
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 4: streaming defenses this past week, you had three of them, Saints, Rams,

895
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 4: and Packers.

896
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 5: How did it work out for you?

897
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, so we'll go and order worst to best. The

898
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 6: Saints were the worst. They only scored one point for you. Look,

899
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 6: it wasn't negative, so it's not as bad as it

900
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 6: could have been, but yeah, could have gone elsewhere and

901
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 6: gotten a little better. Packers four points again hoping for

902
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 6: a little better but not terrible, and the Rams had

903
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 6: eight points. That's you know, that's solid for a defense.

904
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 6: So yeah, I actually successful.

905
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 4: I actually hit on my survivor. The Detroit one was

906
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 4: the obvious one. But I said, if you wanted a

907
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 4: play tech, go with the Saints over the Browns, and

908
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 4: they won that game. My points of paluza did not hit.

909
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,319
Speaker 4: Texans kept up there under the bargain. The Cowboys did

910
00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 4: not my Oasis songs talk Tonight Night game for Justin

911
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,880
Speaker 4: Herbert and let them in rushing and almost three hundred

912
00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:57,960
Speaker 4: yards passing and a couple of touchdowns. So I'll take

913
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 4: that from the Chargers quarterback. Mike hit Joe Mixon earlier

914
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 4: on as his number one running back. Pooka Nicol was

915
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:08,320
Speaker 4: a top guy. Jamar Chase was in your top five Mike. Yeah,

916
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 4: Jameis Winston, even in the loss, was one of your ninjas,

917
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 4: and Elijah Moore got into the end zone as well.

918
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:15,840
Speaker 4: So it was a good week for Mike Carmen.

919
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll take it. The bo Nicks, little Ah Jeahn,

920
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 2: Breisee Hall, Jared Goff at this point, is he like

921
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 2: just build a statue to him like pat Riley outside

922
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,640
Speaker 2: Crypto dot Com. You know, I'll take the l on

923
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 2: the CJ. Stroud game, because this is one where I

924
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 2: really thought with Nico Collins they'd come in and feast,

925
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 2: and alast they led me astray and everything. Forty nine

926
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,319
Speaker 2: ers leaves me scratching my head.

927
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,479
Speaker 4: Should have had a should have had a seventy seven

928
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:49,839
Speaker 4: yard touchdown, but a lego man downfield just just burn

929
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 4: chef by the Houston.

930
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 2: They really call that more these days, don't they. They
