1 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: What is going on? Everybody? It's me John. They've got 2 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:17,920 Speaker 1: three and our podcast back at it again. I'm recording this. 3 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: There's some time left in the Monday night football game. 4 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: It's unwatchable. I don't even I don't even know if 5 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have a take for the game. I actually 6 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: do have a take, but it's not necessarily about what 7 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: happened on the field. We'll get into that in a second. 8 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: Uh lot going on, paying the right quarterbacks, golf. Doc 9 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: Cousins will dive into all that. Teddy Bridgewater is the 10 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 1: ultimate contingency plan for the Saints is working out pretty 11 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: well despite social media just crushing him. The Patriots and 12 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: the Bills game was game was pretty uh kind of 13 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 1: a throwback to like the mid eighties, a physical, defensive game. 14 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: Brady struggled a little bit. I mean, the entire Patriot 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: offense struggled. But Patriots just do what they do. They win. 16 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: And then Matt Patricia just borderline excusable with his time 17 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: out to the into the games. Some thoughts there and 18 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: then I'll just kind of dive around. I was thinking 19 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: to myself, I sat around literally all day Saturday and Sunday. 20 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I barely moved, ordered food a couple of times, 21 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: went to get food once. My physical activity for a 22 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: forty eight hour stretch was was borderline embarrassing. Now, granted, 23 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: I gotta watch the games. I gotta speak to the people, 24 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: and I can't give my good takes if I don't 25 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 1: watch the game. So I had to put in the 26 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: time part of it. I was a little hungover. I 27 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: went to cal A. S Ue was just a football 28 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: frenzy started Friday night. Started at cal A. Sue went 29 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 1: to the game. Cal quarterback got knocked out, a su 30 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 1: herm got a big win, and then I just consumed 31 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: football basically sign up till sundown and still up till 32 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: Monday watching this Monday night football game. Uh, and I'll talk. 33 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: I'll just go over and everything I saw, and then 34 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: we end all the podcast. Middlecoff mail Bag at John 35 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: Middlecoff is my Instagram handle, same as my Twitter handle. 36 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: The d m s are always wide open. Slide right 37 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: in and I'll answer your question here. I I don't 38 00:01:58,160 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: have much to say about the Monday night football game. 39 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: I I really don't. The Bengals are terrible. Mason Rudolph 40 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: looked a little more comfortable at home clearly than he 41 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: did last week against the forty Niners. Uh. I guess 42 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: we'll learn more about this kind of a big game 43 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: this upcoming week Steelers Ravens, you know, I mean, can 44 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: the Ravens, who I thought were good kind of got 45 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: their butt kick the last two weeks? Are they good? 46 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 1: I don't know? And Lamar Jackson back to Earth. Can 47 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: the Steelers make a little run here? You know they 48 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 1: can win some games at home? About to find out, 49 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: But I'm pretty disappointed in this, Like I I've come 50 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: to a breaking point with this Monday night broadcast. And 51 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: you know, certain things in life you just expect. I 52 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: went to pick up some food earlier today at in 53 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: and Out actually like an hour ago. And when you 54 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: pick up food, just like when you go to the 55 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 1: grocery store, you just assume the food is gonna be clean, 56 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: it's gonna be healthy in the sense of you're not 57 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: gonna get food poisoning or anything. And ninete percent at 58 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: the time you don't. But we just become accustomed. You 59 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: don't even think twice about it. You just go order 60 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: food and you eat it right. You just get on 61 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: an airplane. You just think everything's gonna be one occasional 62 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: plane crashes, but nine and nine percent of the time 63 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: the plane is cool. You just become accustomed to it. Well, 64 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: part of big broadcasts, you just think they're gonna give 65 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,399 Speaker 1: like the network is gonna give you high effort. Right, 66 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: you get Fox through their hat in the ring on 67 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football, Well what happens? You get Troy Aigman 68 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: and Joe Buck NBC the biggest game of the night, Right, 69 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: it's the highest rate of game. You get Al Michael's 70 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: and Chris Collinsworth, even CBS afternoon Game of the Day. 71 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: You get Tony Romo and Jim Nance. They're all big, 72 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 1: they feel big, The broadcast crew feels big. You've got 73 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: guys that have been like Buck has been doing it forever. 74 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: Aikman's a superstar. You get Al Michaels, who's probably the 75 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: most famous play by play guy ever. Collinsworth some people 76 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,119 Speaker 1: don't like him. I don't. I don't mind him obviously. 77 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: Nance and Romo are kind of the star studded new group, 78 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: even though Nance has been doing it forever. But Tony 79 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: strowing his hat in the ring is this up and 80 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: coming superstar and he's got some media juice because he 81 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: played in the safe way open. If you would have 82 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: made the cut, he would have got the day off. 83 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: But you get what I'm saying, Like we expect big time, 84 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: Like Major League Baseball playoffs are about to start. You 85 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: know who's gonna call them? You's gonna call the games? 86 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: Bob Costas, Joe Buck. You know they don't roll out 87 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: some random announcer from like Cincinnati. Right when the NBA 88 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: playoffs happened. Who calls the games? I don't know, Marv Albert, 89 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: Kevin Harlem, Mike Breen. Like we get the Star crew, 90 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: how do I watch this Monday Night crew and listen? 91 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: I talked for a living. I attempted to do play 92 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: by play one time in college. It's impossible. My partner 93 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: on my other podcast, Guy Haberman, has done. He does 94 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: pack twelve games. He's done Golden State Warriors games in Oakland, 95 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: A's game. It's really hard. He's really good, you know, 96 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 1: it's it's difficult. I have nothing bad admiration for how 97 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: good he's able to be at it. Just like all 98 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 1: these other young guys from Joe Davis who's a star, 99 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: to Dave Fleming in my area that can do them all, 100 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: it's a difficult job to do, so I'm not even 101 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 1: pretending that I could do it. Just like I I 102 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: have no aspiration and I would never even want to 103 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 1: do it it to be an analyst that game, that's 104 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: really hard to you see, because the majority of analysts 105 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: over the years, there's a lot more crappy ones than 106 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: there are good ones. I think we can all agree 107 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: on that in all sports. But the crew that this 108 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: Monday night the ESPN is rolling out is officially an embarrassment. 109 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: It's unwatchable. Joe test It Tour approaches all these games 110 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: like it's Game seven the Super Bowl, like bro, it's Monday. 111 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: And at football it's the NFL. Let the game, breathe 112 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: and just call the game. Not everything is the Mirrale 113 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: call on ice, take a de breath. And I when 114 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: I was at Fresno State and the g a Joe Testator. 115 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: He used to call the whack games. And he approached 116 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: it with a fervor and an enthusiasm. As Jim Harbaugh 117 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: would say, unknown to mankind, it was cool. You'd be 118 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: Fresno State, Boise State, Nevada, Boise State, you know, Boise, 119 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: New Mexico. And he approached like a super Bowl, and 120 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: everyone in the Whack Conference appreciated it. The NFL is 121 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: the NFL. The game speaks for itself, you know, just 122 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: let the game play in. Booker McFarland, he was at 123 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: the SEC network a orst in it because he's from 124 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: the South right when to l s U. I liked 125 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: him on the SEC Network. But when you come when 126 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: you're not paying attention in the NFL, living, breathing, and 127 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: sleeping it. I know when I worked in the NFL, 128 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: I remember like a year in thinking this is overwhelming. 129 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: There is so much stuff going on, so many players 130 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: in this league, so many coaches in this league. It 131 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: is hard to keep a grasp on it. That's such 132 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 1: a huge advantage. Guys like Andy Reid, Tom Coughlin, Sean Payton, 133 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: obviously Belichick did have been in the league. For you. 134 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: Every single player that's come through the league, they be valuated, 135 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: every single coach they've coached against. There's a huge advantage 136 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: to just experience around the league separate from playing, like 137 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: thinking about it from bird's eye view. And that's why 138 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: John Gruden and John Madden, guys that have been great 139 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: entertainers on Monday Night football were so good. One just 140 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: their natural at it, and two they just been around 141 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: the league a long time. They know what's going on. 142 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: They know what's talking about. A defensive coordinator talking about 143 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: a player giving me some nugget something, I get nothing, 144 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 1: if anything, I just get angry watching this broadcast, this 145 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: is Monday Night football. As a kid that was born 146 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: in the eighties and grew up in the nineties, back 147 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: when we only have three or four channels. For you 148 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: younger millennials that are listening to this, we used to 149 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: just have NBC, CBS, Fox, in ABC. So when you 150 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: got Monday Football on Monday, it was a big deal 151 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: because you might have watched a couple games over the weekend. 152 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: You got your local game. For me, it was the Niners. 153 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: You got maybe a college football game over the weekend. 154 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: This is before I even had cable, because in my 155 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: neighborhood we didn't even get cable until we my dad 156 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: ordered direct TV and like two thousand we never had cable. 157 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: So I I really valued games like Bunday Night Football. 158 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: It was a big deal in my home. Now I 159 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: understand where it's not as big a deal in the 160 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: sense that we have so many games, but still Monday football. 161 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: It's a standalone game on Monday. There are no football games, 162 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: and we're getting like an f uh F might be 163 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: sort you know to mean, but a D plus crew 164 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: it's a joke. I mean, I get text all the 165 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: time for people in the NFL, my friends, d ms 166 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: from you guys. It's terrible. It's just not good enough. 167 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: You know. Clay Hilton, who who lost over this lost 168 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: over the weekend to Washington. It's given his heart and 169 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: soul thet USC. He has truly tried. But at the 170 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: end of the day, at USC and their standard is 171 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: do attempt to win national championships. So Clay Helton's tried 172 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: really hard. That's great, but he's not good enough. It's 173 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: a black and white, you know position. You either win 174 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: or you lose, and Clay Helton loses a lot more 175 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: than he wins. Right, That's the great part about pro football. 176 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: You just get judged as a coach on winning and losing. 177 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: All the other fluff in the BS is meaningless, Like 178 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: it's a little harder to quantify who's good and who's bad. Obviously, 179 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: the ratings will be decent because the NFL and people 180 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: watch the NFL, but the broadcast. It's just an unbiased opinion. 181 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: I I don't have nothing to do with any network. 182 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: People always like you work for Fox now, I just 183 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: do a podcast for Colin Coward on his podcast network, 184 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: So I have nothing to do with any of them. 185 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: But this ESPN Brock and I like a lot of 186 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: ESPN broadcast, but this specific one is unwatchable. And I 187 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: have nothing but respect for the profession. I understand how 188 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: difficult it is to talk for a living and definitely 189 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: understand and can and begin to comprehend how hard it 190 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 1: is to call a game live, and nothing but respect 191 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: for the Playboy play guys, and I understand how difficult 192 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: is for the analyst, and just know that this is 193 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: a low level operation. ESPN shouldn't be embarrassed and ashamed, 194 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: and the NFL, who clearly is not high on ESPN 195 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: because I keep giving them crappy games, has to just 196 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: be like, what the hell is this really? What is 197 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: going on? You're shoving this down our face Monday night 198 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: after Monday night. We just can't take it anymore. And 199 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: I'm trying to be a more positive person. You know, 200 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: I'm not. I don't live in negativity. This is becoming 201 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: uncharacteristic of this new light. I've turned over as a 202 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: positive man. But tonight, now the game was terrible, but 203 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 1: it has nothing to do with the game. The game 204 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: could have been great. And just hearing those two talk 205 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: drive me nuts want me to again. As a text 206 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 1: I got from an NFL scouting buddy that said, this 207 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: is so bad, I'm gonna have to mute the television 208 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: and just turn on music. And I said, I agree, 209 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do the same thing, and I did. Okay, 210 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: let's dive into the quarterbacks, and let's dive into some 211 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks that are being highly paid or about to 212 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: be highly paid, or that are underachieving. And I think 213 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: you have to look at them all a little differently. 214 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: The reality is in the NFL, if you have a 215 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: young quarterback that you draft and then you win games, 216 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: whether you win because of them, you know, kind of 217 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: like they're doing with My Homes or Deshaun Watson, or 218 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 1: whether you kind of carry them and he plays a 219 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: role in it like a golf like a dack. Remember 220 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's first several years were kind of like that, 221 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: and we didn't know. You have no choice. You were 222 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: going to break them off at just an enormous rate, 223 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: just the going rate. It costs a premium. It is 224 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: what it is. And you hope with a lot of 225 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: these guys that they're gonna improve. And I've kind of 226 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: broken it in into two guys and we're gonna dive 227 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: in ultimately into Kirk Cousins. Is you want one of 228 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 1: two things when you're giving him this a hundred to 229 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: a hundred and thirty million dollars, you want either an 230 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 1: elite guy like the Packers a couple of years ago 231 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: when they paid Aaron Rodgers, like the Seattle Seahawks. Was 232 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: it this I think it was this offseason they paid 233 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Yeah, it was right before O t s 234 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: And they know that that individual can carry their franchise 235 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: to the playoffs consistently. You just know this guy is 236 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: one of the best in the league. In Roger's case, 237 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: one of the best, probably second best or the best 238 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,839 Speaker 1: in franchise history. However you want to look at it, 239 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: I'd lean farve, but you catch my drift and you 240 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,679 Speaker 1: just don't even really hesitate that much doing it now. 241 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: It costs a lot, and you know your margin frere 242 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 1: as they get older as a little smaller, but it 243 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: just is what it is. Like I got the Warriors 244 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: right down the street. They didn't even flinch. Given Steph 245 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: Curry too hundre million dollars. Now there are a lot 246 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: of other players in the leaguett two hundred million dollars 247 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: and they don't feel quite as good. But just like 248 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan got a hundred million dollars, given Matt Ryan 249 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: a hundred million dollars and given Aaron Rodgers a hundred 250 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: million dollars feels a little different. Same with Russell Wilson. 251 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: Those two run circles around Mattie Ice and as you 252 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: see the outcome of it, it proves weekend, week out. 253 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: And then there's the other level of guys that you 254 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: go who can be really good and I would put 255 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: whenever Mahomes gets paid. He's one of the unique younger 256 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: guys that's probably gonna have a resume like after four seasons, 257 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: that's just stupid. You're like, well, this guy's won two 258 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: m vps held by the end of this year, might 259 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: have won a Super Bowl. It will be the easiest 260 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: contract you'll ever do. But most of the young guys 261 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: are Carson Wentz. You know there's a lot of unknown 262 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: because he's been hurt. Jared Goff, Dak Prescott. You're like, 263 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: how much is the team's really good? How much is him? 264 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: I've always argued Carson Wentz his upside is so high 265 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: that it's easier to do. I think you struggle more 266 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: with guys like Dak and Golf. Though, when you have 267 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: him in the building, you feel really good about it. 268 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: You're like, this guy is a great guy. I'm about 269 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: to invest million dollars guaranteed. I trust the human I 270 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: like being around him. I know if we build it 271 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 1: around him correctly, it's gonna be right now. The thing is, 272 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: like Carson Wentz, he can elevate you. He can carry you, 273 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: like Russell Wilson, like Rogers, like we're seeing a little 274 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: bit with ma Homes. They still have a really good team, 275 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: but they can put you on their back and carry 276 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 1: you to the promised landing. When I say the promise, 277 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: and I'm not talking super Bowl, I'm just talking to 278 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: get you into the playoffs and then anything can happen. 279 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: And I trust those guys in big games to have 280 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: the talent to win. That doesn't mean you're always gonna 281 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: win Brady doesn't win every single year, but they're gonna 282 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: give you a chance. And then there's this group of 283 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 1: players like Dak Golf and even Jimmy Garoppolo and I 284 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: think Derek Carr a couple of years ago, I think 285 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: my voice just cracked. Where you go. These guys are good, 286 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: they're really talented, but you're not quite and you like 287 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 1: him a lot. You love him in the building, you 288 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 1: like their study habits, but you're not quite sure how 289 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: much is them right? It's like, well, is it the teammates? 290 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 1: Is it them? But you really don't have a choice, 291 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: so you kind of put your you know, all your 292 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: eggs in the basket. Well, if it's like Jared Goff, 293 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: who we're seeing struggle a little bit. One of their 294 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: big issues is Todd Gurley is not the same. And 295 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: they made an enormous investment in golf, but they also 296 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: made a very very strong investment in Todd Gurley. And 297 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: if they would have not paid Todd Gurley, they would 298 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: have a lot more money to mess with other positions. 299 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: They also paid Brandon Cooks a premium I'm not sure 300 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks as a premium player, despite being traded for 301 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: first round picks back to back years. Is he uh, 302 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: double digit million? Got ten plus million dollars a year? Guy? 303 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: Not for me, So they've invested poorly. Now the Cowboys 304 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: are a good example of that's gonna get a stupid 305 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: amount of money. He's a little like Jared Goff that 306 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: needs good players around him. At this stage, I think 307 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: hopefully you've envisioned both guys one day taking a Russell 308 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: Wilson jump. Now, I'm not saying that either guy will 309 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: be as it as Russell, but improved so much over 310 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: the next several years that they'll be able to carry 311 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: a team midway through their second contract. Do you go tax? 312 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: The difference between the Cowboys and the Rams is the 313 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 1: Rams haven't or I mean, the Cowboys have not signed 314 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: to Todd Gurley type deal. All the players they've signed 315 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: are sweet, Jalen Smith badass, Zeke badass, all their offensive 316 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: line badasses they haven't really missed, and Amari Cooper a 317 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: little like a better version of Brandon Cooks, also traded 318 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: for a first round pick. You're like, is he a 319 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: true one? I think he's really good. The way I 320 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: would describe a Mari is an elite number two in 321 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: a perfect world, I'd want a number one, but I 322 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: can I can be an excellent team with just two. 323 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper's right, but I can't just have He's not Julio, 324 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: He's not Hopkins, and then you can have a big 325 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: drop off. They They're gonna need Michael Gallup to be 326 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: really good. So I think that becomes a little question 327 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: how much do I invest into Mark Cooper Because the 328 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: moment you pay Golf or you pay uh Dak Prescott 329 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: huge money, you have less margin for about the guys 330 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: around you. That's what I think makes the Minnesota Vikings 331 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: so unique. If you would put Jared Goff or Dac 332 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: on the Minnesota Vikings last year, I think it's safe 333 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: to say they are a lock playoff team. We know 334 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: that because we've seen the Rams and we've seen the 335 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: Cowboys go to the playoffs with similar little rosters. Now, 336 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if those guys ever, once the rosters 337 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: gets worse, you know in time, as you have less money, 338 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: they can carry you. I don't know that, but I 339 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: know when you give them a top flight roster, they're 340 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: worth it. So we have the elite guys, which are 341 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: the Rogers, the Russell Wilson's Peyton and his prime, right, 342 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: we know who those guys are. Then we have the 343 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: guys that are kind of ascending, who we've seen him 344 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: on a good team and we've seen them have success. 345 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: There is unknown how they'll look as the team gets worse. 346 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: We don't quite know. But you bet on the com 347 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: when you like the guy. And then you have Kirk Cousins, 348 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: who we've seen start in this league. This is going 349 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: on a six year The evidence is there, the resume 350 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: is there. I never hold it against the player for 351 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: signing a big contract when they're not worth that contract. 352 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: So America, someone puts a contract in front of you, 353 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: signed the deal, especially when the money is guaranteed. In 354 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: any industry, take the cash, smart move if it's for 355 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: just you know, generational money. He was in a unique position, 356 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: unlike all these other quarterbacks that their teams would never 357 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 1: in a million years let them hit free agency. And 358 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: the Washington Redskins, for being arguably the most dysfunctional team 359 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 1: in the NFL currently, they did do one thing right 360 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: is they did never sign this guy to a big deal, 361 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: and the deals they offered them were kind of team 362 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 1: friendly because you know, at the end of the day. 363 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: What we're learning about Kirk Cousins, he's a team friendly 364 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: type quarterback. When you invest the farm in him and 365 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 1: you have a championship level team, he'll let you down 366 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 1: at every turn, every single turn. Because the more and 367 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: more evidence that we learned about this guy, he's just 368 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: not good enough. The Minnesota Vikings had this team that 369 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: was locked and loaded, had a super Bowl caliber roster. 370 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: I don't think anyone would argue with me listening to this, 371 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: whether you're a Patriots fan, whether you're Chiefs fan, whatever 372 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: team you like, their roster is top notch. It's in 373 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 1: the mix the top five or six teams in the league. 374 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: They're loaded. They have an elite running back, they have 375 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: elite wide receivers, they have a good head coach, they 376 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: have talented defensive guys at every single level. And you 377 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,479 Speaker 1: signed Kirk Cousins to not people forget because we're now 378 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: two years removed. He was coming to an NFC championship team. 379 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: So they signed him to get over the hump. And 380 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: in the NFL regular season, games matter, especially against division rivals. 381 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: And when you play the Chicago Bears and they lose 382 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,360 Speaker 1: their starting quarterback early on in the game, and they're 383 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: also missing multiple starters. You pay Kirk Cousins twenty eight 384 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: million dollars to swing that game because he should be 385 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: you know, even the Bears have a ton of good players. 386 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: If I mean he should have a major impact in 387 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: that game, he did not. He didn't belong in that game. 388 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: Adam Finland after the game, I don't have the quote 389 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: in front of me, but basically, to summarize what he said, 390 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: we're not gonna be able to run it down everyone's throat. 391 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: CEC teams like the Chicago Bears. We're not gonna be 392 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: able to run for a buck eighty against them. We 393 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:20,959 Speaker 1: might run for forty yards like we did. We have 394 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: to be able to hit deep passes. He's specifically talking 395 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 1: about a pass where he beats the corner and he's 396 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: open and Kirk Cousins overthrows him. Why because of big games, 397 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: when all the chips are on the table and it's 398 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: nut cutting time, Kirk Cousins never completes that pass. So 399 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins didn't change, just the way we viewed him 400 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 1: changed when he signed this historic contract. But he's the 401 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: same player that he was in Washington, just a guy 402 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: and the differences in Washington. They were a terrible team, 403 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: so we didn't see them in important games. Well, what 404 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: happens when he comes to the Vikings. Every game they play, 405 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: specifically against the Packers and Bears, is gonna be magnified 406 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: because we view those in the National Football League as 407 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: playoff games in the regular season, because they dictate who's 408 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 1: gonna go out of that division. It's pretty clear the 409 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: NFC North is really good. The Lions, hell, we'll get 410 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: to them in that Patricia a little later, are not bad. 411 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,959 Speaker 1: The Bears defense is dominant. Packers pretty damn good team. 412 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins was supposed to be the guy to get 413 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 1: them over the hump. And anytime a quarterback ever just 414 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: hits free agency when he's between the ages of eight 415 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: and thirty two in this modern day NFL, that should 416 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,199 Speaker 1: be the biggest red flag you should possibly have in 417 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: a league where teams are starved for quarterbacks, specifically good ones, 418 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: top fifteen, top twelve guys. Because if you have a 419 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: top twelve guy and you build a good team Cowboys Rams, 420 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 1: you're gonna be in the mix. Everyone's crushing Jared goff 421 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: Rams for three and one. They'll win ten eleven games 422 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: at the end of the year, and Jared Goff is 423 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: a million dollar quarterback. I've said over and over I 424 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: didn't like that number. I like probably more in the 425 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: mid eighties. But it is what it is. It's the 426 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: going rate for these guys, the teams. It's the one 427 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: position where the player and his agent and his camp 428 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: have some leverage, and they took care of him. But 429 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: I do know if Jared Goff's just a round good player, 430 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: Like do you think the Minnesota Vikings wouldn't rather have 431 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: Jared Goff. I'll promise you this. He's gonna hit Adam 432 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: Dealing more times than not, because we have seen him 433 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 1: in those positions the last couple of years with Sean 434 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 1: McVeigh with the talented team, and he's hit those guys. 435 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins can't hit those guys. He gives Minnesota no chance. 436 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: And I've been someone that was banging the drum that 437 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: I thought Minnesota was really good. I thought, if Cousins 438 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 1: could just play under control, how are they not gonna 439 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: win ten plus games and be in the playoffs. I 440 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: don't feel that way anymore. He can't be good teams. 441 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: He has no chance against good defenses. Well, who is 442 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: good defenses? He's gotta play. I don't even have their 443 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: schedule in front of me right now, but I do 444 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: know for a fact they play the Packers and they 445 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: play the Bears four times. Are we looking at four? 446 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: L's right there? The Packers already beat him, the Bears 447 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: already beat him. Why aren't those two teams gonna beat 448 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: him again? I think the I think the Minnesota Vikings 449 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: are in major trouble. The problem is it's not like 450 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: you know in business, Oh it's a some cost move on. 451 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: You can't really I mean, this is your quarterback. You're 452 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: just kind of all in on this guy. You just 453 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: the ship's gonna go down with him leading it, or 454 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: there's somehow gonna make me look like an idiot and 455 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: just start rattling off some wins because there's no bench 456 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: in this guy. You're in bed with this guy until 457 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: the Titanic goes under. And right now, the Titanic is 458 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 1: doing skull chance, and it's taken on some it's taken 459 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: on some water. The fans know it, the coaches know it. 460 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: It's pretty clear now the players know it. You can't 461 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: pay the wrong guy in the National Football League when 462 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: you have a really good team, because it magnifies and 463 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: looks way worse. The Vikings are in major trouble right now. 464 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: I'm a sucker for any sort of Army, Navy seal 465 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: book or movie. I find them fascinating. I've been to 466 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: the theaters like twice in the last five years. One 467 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: of them was to see the Bradley Cooper American Sniper movie. 468 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: I just you give me a movie like that, I'm in. 469 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: You give me a book like that, I'm in. I 470 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: I still believe Loan Survivor on Marcus by Marcus Lutrell, 471 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: the about the four guys he was the one guy 472 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 1: that survived in Afghanistan is one of the best books 473 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: I've ever read. I think I read it in under 474 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: forty eight hours. It was riveting. I think that's a 475 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: good example of you gotta have some constigency plants because 476 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: sometimes things don't go right. And in that Lone Survivor movie, 477 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: they were dropped in to carry out this mission. They 478 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: ran into a farmer and they let him live, and 479 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: it cost him and it costs three guys their lives. Now, 480 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: there are consiscy plans that you can't even be ready for. 481 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: But I think a lot of times, like you're gonna 482 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,959 Speaker 1: go in on Osama bin Laden that mission, they had 483 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: an idea of what the house looked like, but they're 484 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: still were unknowns right when they open up different doors. 485 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: Who was gonna be there, how many guards in there? 486 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: Would Osama have a gun when he fired back? You 487 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: just don't know. So you have different contingency plans to 488 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: make sure that you can get the mission finished. And 489 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: I think coming into Teddy Bridgewater, I think some of 490 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 1: this relates to that. Part of paying a backup quarterback 491 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 1: seven million dollars when you have a super Bowl level 492 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: team is to have a contingency plan. Now, if Drew 493 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,199 Speaker 1: Breese goes out for the season, you're probably screwed. But 494 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 1: if you do get into a situation where he messes 495 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: up his thumb and he's gonna miss three, four or 496 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: five six games, can you win four out or six 497 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 1: of them and just keep the ship above water? Because 498 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 1: look how many teams in the NFL do not have 499 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: a contingency plan and their starter goes down and they're screwed. 500 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: If Matt Ryan went down, Now the Falcons stink, and 501 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: Matt shob had to play. They could not win a game. 502 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 1: We've seen several times Aaron Rodgers backup go down. They 503 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: were done. They were done. Right. A couple of years ago, 504 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: who had a contingency plan, the Eagles, they had this 505 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: guy named Nick Fools. That was the best case scenario. 506 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: They won a super Bowl. But even if they hadn't 507 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: won the super Bowl, if they just would have lost 508 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 1: in that first round of the playoffs, he was good 509 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: enough to compete. That's really all you can ask for, 510 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: is your backup quarterback is a contendency plan. And I 511 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: got a lot of people tweeting at me, middle Coff. 512 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: You get the same result for six hundred thousand dollars 513 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: from a rookie or second year guy. Yeah, every once 514 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: in a while you get a Gardner Minshew. For the 515 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: most part, when you see an undrafted free agent or 516 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: six round or whoever is the backup, even on a 517 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: really good team, he's not only gonna shift the bed, 518 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna You're not gonna be your your your entire 519 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: operation won't be functional with that guy in the game. Again, 520 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew is much more of an outlier than something 521 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: that we typically see. So what's seven million dollars bought 522 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 1: Sean Payton, the Saints and even your the fans now 523 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 1: is a peace of mind because Drew Brees, who is 524 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: forty years old, if he did go down. It's pretty 525 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: clear that this Saints team since they won that Super Bowl, 526 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: this is probably their best team top to bottom. Defense. 527 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 1: We saw as I'm recording this last night, if you're 528 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: listening to Tuesday or Wednesday. On Sunday night football kind 529 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: of took it to the Cowboys. They are really good 530 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: on defense. What do they have on offense? They have 531 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: a superstar running back in Alvin Kamara. They have I 532 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: don't know if he's a superstar, but he's a damn 533 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: good player. In Michael Thomas. They got a really good 534 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: tight end and Jared Cook. They got weapons. If you 535 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: just put a serviceable quarterback that knows what's going on, 536 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: you can win games. What have they done in the 537 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: last two weeks? Went on the road in Seattle, hosted 538 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: the Cowboys to playoff teams form last year, beat them both, 539 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: beat the breaks off Seattle and had a really really 540 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:54,360 Speaker 1: impressive win against the Cowboys. And Teddy Bridgewater is getting destroyed. 541 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: When I opened social media, he stinks well you guys 542 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 1: are looking at him the wrong way. You're looking at 543 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 1: like Teddy Bridgewater, the former first round pick. He's not 544 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: a starting quarterback anymore. Those days are over. He is 545 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: a good backup. He is a backup that winning teams 546 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: will want because if you put him on the field 547 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: with a good team, you can function with him. That's 548 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: all the Saints want. And they feel comfortable with you 549 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 1: as a little bit of an overpay. Sure, but again, 550 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,399 Speaker 1: their head coach, who might be in the Hall of 551 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: Fame one day, sleeps well at night. Their starting quarterback 552 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 1: clue is probably pretty comfortable around Teddy. Their team really 553 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: likes the guy. And we've had a lot of backup 554 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: quarterback talk in these last three years. Why isn't this 555 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: guy in the league? Well, I don't know, because there 556 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,719 Speaker 1: were some stories on a guy that continues to get 557 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 1: talked about. And I'm not trying to go down to 558 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick road. People forget. A lot of players on 559 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: the team didn't like him that last year. Eric Reed did, 560 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 1: a lot of other players didn't remember those stories about 561 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: how I'm putting on the headphones and him being just 562 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: in a different world than the rest of his team. 563 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 1: Like that got remembered like that that happened. I know 564 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 1: people don't ever talk about that. I lived it. I 565 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: live here in the Bay Area. Those stories happened every 566 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: day like that. That. That was happening even before the knee. 567 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: It was ugly. So these guys really like Teddy Bridgewater 568 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: that matters winning the backup quarterback. The guys like you, 569 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: and then can they win with you? And he's starting 570 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 1: to prove they can now. Is it pretty No, he 571 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have a great arm. His leg almost fell off, 572 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: so he doesn't move around that well. But in this offense, 573 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: with what Sean Payton's asking h to do and being 574 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 1: able to game plan all week long, they can win 575 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: games against really good teams. That went against the Cowboys 576 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: was I opening that. That was really really impressive. But 577 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: the reason they're in this position, and this is to me, 578 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: I'm giving them a lot of credit, is they knew 579 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: this offseason they needed a contingency plan because the older 580 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: Drew Brees gets like, sometimes you're gonna drop in for 581 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: a mission and there's gonna be a guy that you 582 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: didn't think was there. Like Drew Brees didn't break an 583 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: ankle this year. He didn't tear an a c l 584 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: He just threw a ball and his thumb hit Aaron 585 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: Donald on the helmet. Kind of freak deal. Something that 586 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: if you sat down with Sean Payton in the middle 587 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: of the summer and you say, let's list ten ways 588 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: that Drew Brees get hurt, you probably wouldn't have list 589 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: that you list. You know, he gets hurt his ankle, 590 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: someone rolls into him. Uh, he just he's just old. 591 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: Maybe he just falls off a cliff. He's not good anymore. 592 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: Maybe he hurts his shoulder again. You would have listed 593 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: a million things before you ever listed the way that 594 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: it ended up going down. Well, actually, he's gonna hurt 595 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: his thumb, but it turns out he won't need surgery, 596 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 1: or he will need surgery. He'll go to this guy 597 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: in l A. It turns out probably only be out 598 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: four or five weeks. Like, yeah, we definitely need to 599 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: keep Teddy Bridgewater because remember he almost went to the 600 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins. The best thing Teddy Bridgewater ever did, the 601 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 1: best thing he ever did, was turned down the Miami 602 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: Dolphins and stay with the New Orleans Saints. And he 603 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: talked about it after the game. How winning means something 604 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: to him and last year is a backup. How cool 605 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: it was to be around wins, wins and just win. 606 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 1: There is something special about that, and I give him credit. 607 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: And you often don't see this in the NBA, very 608 00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: often is not everyone's a star player. And one of 609 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 1: the biggest reasons, I guess, maybe not the biggest reason, 610 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: but some a separating factor which made the Warriors so 611 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: special these last five years. They obviously had the star power, 612 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: but they had two guys their fifth and sixth man 613 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: that were former stars. One guy was, you know, a 614 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: former on the Olympic team, a former max player as 615 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: on multiple teams that were playoff teams. But he was 616 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: never good enough to be the alpha. Turns out he 617 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: wasn't even really a beta. He had to be like 618 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: your fourth, fifth, or sixth best player, and he was 619 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 1: old enough in Andrea Bodald. He came to Grips with 620 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: that Sean Livingston, he just was perfectly typecast. He became 621 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: a role player, and that separated the Warriors as they 622 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: moved on. Well the Saints, who at one point in time, 623 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: when Drew Brees went down in that Rams game, he 624 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 1: started thinking, man, is this team gonna screw their chance. Well, 625 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: then boom go up to Seattle win, host the Cowboys win. 626 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: You're like, is his team gonna end up twelve and 627 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 1: four and ms Drew Brees for six games and not 628 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: skip a beat. It's because they had a contenency plan 629 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: and whenever ones crapping on, he's not a starting quarterback, 630 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: He's the contingency plan. An expensive contingency plan, but worth 631 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: every penny up until right now. Okay, let's dive into 632 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: the Patriots. And first I'm gonna talk about the Patriots. Second, 633 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk about their former defensive coordinator Matt Patricia. 634 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: And I just thought his end of the game was nuts. 635 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was crazy, even though texting with a 636 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: couple of people in the NFL, they disagreed with me 637 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 1: a little bit, but that's you know, disagreements. Okay, let's 638 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: start with the Patriots. And I think that the way 639 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: in the NFL. And this is the great part about 640 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: the sport. I say it all the time. There's a 641 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: reason it runs circles around the other two sports in 642 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: terms of popularity and just television ratings, which means the 643 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: amount of attention they get is because every Sunday is 644 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: really important. And yesterday, I mean there were really two 645 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: games or maybe three games that I was really interested in, 646 00:31:54,360 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: Ravens Brown's Chiefs, Lions and Bears, Vikings and Sunday Night 647 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: game kind of in Sunday Night game too. So four 648 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: for the most part though kind of a dude weekend. 649 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: But this game was kind of interesting too, Bills New England. 650 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 1: Though I thought New England would take care of business 651 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: because they always take care of business. But if you 652 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: play in a tight game on the road as a 653 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: divisional game, that's okay, Like the point the great part 654 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: about the NFL, because you don't get any style points. 655 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: This is not college football. A wins a win. This 656 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: is not the NBA where when you're the Warriors, you 657 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: should blow out the Suns or the Grizzlies, you know, 658 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: or the Kings or whoever I guess in your division. 659 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: Right in baseball, if you have if you're the Yankees 660 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 1: and you have the Orioles in your division and you 661 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 1: play on what nineteen times or seventeen whatever it is, 662 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: you should win five of those games. In football, if 663 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: you go five and one in your division, even in 664 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots case where the division the Dolphins terrible, the 665 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: Bill snak, and the Jets snake. They're probably going six 666 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: and note. But if they were to lose one, and 667 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: typically they lose one a year, there's a five and one. 668 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: So if they win, you know, that's six games. If 669 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: they win eight of their other games, you're at eleven 670 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: wins just off the bat. And usually they win like 671 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: nine games and go five and one or six and 672 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,719 Speaker 1: oh and boom they're at twelve or thirteen wins. So 673 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 1: I watched the game and my first takeaway is one, 674 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: the Bills defense is really good because we know Brady 675 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: Brady's the goat. This Patriot past defense is just stupid. 676 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: Their their dbs are making plays on the ball like 677 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: their Randy Moss or their Terrell Owns. It really is 678 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,959 Speaker 1: just eye opening to watch. But I have a watching 679 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,959 Speaker 1: that game this morning, I was like, whoa, you know 680 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: what the Bills. Bills are for real. If they weren't 681 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: playing the Patriots, they probably win this game. But one 682 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: big problem. And I got into an argument a while 683 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: back with someone on social media about they're like middle Cock, 684 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 1: you're being so harsh on Josh Allen. Stop calling him inaccurate. 685 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 1: I said, no, because I don't box score scout. I 686 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 1: watched the games, and there's a select few of humans 687 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: left anymore. They can just give educated opinions off watching. 688 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: I don't need a box score to shape my opinion. 689 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: I've been doing this my whole life. This isn't something 690 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 1: I just do for fun. This is not a passion project. 691 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: This is my life. So when I watched Josh Allen 692 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 1: and I say he's inaccurate, it's because he's an inaccurate quarterback. 693 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 1: You can be like, well he threw for sixty percent 694 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 1: against the Bengals. I don't care because I judge you 695 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: off the big games or in situational football when you 696 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 1: gotta get the job done. And Josh Allen was horrendous yesterday. 697 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: One of his big knocks was he's an inaccurate quarterback. Well, 698 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: when you play the Patriots, even if you were, I 699 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: think he was above three percent or whatever coming in 700 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: the game, I don't care because this is a different animal. 701 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: And what did he do yesterday? Through three picks, two 702 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 1: of them that were just jaw dropping lee bad and 703 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,479 Speaker 1: inaccurate guys when they start playing good teams, like yeah, okay, 704 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,720 Speaker 1: you beat the Dolphins or Okay, you beat the Bengals. 705 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 1: I don't even know if they played the Dolphins. But 706 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: you beat the Jazz Woo? Who s are your party? 707 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: You want to you want some dozen cookies for that one. 708 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 1: Let's see how you play against the Patriots. And I 709 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 1: would have had nothing but respect if he just played 710 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,760 Speaker 1: well and they still lost. They were a big underdog 711 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: even at home. New England. Patriots defending champs feels like 712 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,920 Speaker 1: they've won ten Super Bowls the last twenty years. They 713 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: are the cream of the crop, so you're not even 714 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,399 Speaker 1: expected to win. But if you play well, I can 715 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 1: leave the game going you know what, this Josh Allen guy, 716 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: he's coming into his own He's got a chance, right 717 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 1: like you left the NFC Championship game going good thing? 718 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: The Patriots got my homes now, because if this guy 719 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: gets better, or do you better watch out? And what 720 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: are we all saying now, Well, there's only one guy 721 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 1: that can be the Patriots is my homes? Well maybe 722 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: Josh Allen could like in a couple of years, Like 723 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: Josh Allen's a long long way away. The Patriots took 724 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: him to Poundtown. You know, if it wasn't for the 725 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 1: seven year old legend in Frank Gore running his you know, 726 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: two little legs off. It wouldn't even have been close. 727 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: And Brady threw a bad pick and the antel Brady 728 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: didn't play that well, but it's hard to play well 729 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: you're going into how to environment. Their defense is top notch. 730 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: Here's the other thing. I watched that game, and you 731 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 1: know what hit me. I get why the Patriots signed 732 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,279 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown because you know who they went to in 733 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: multiple big spots yesterday, Philip Dorsett, who is clearly their 734 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: best wide receiver yesterday, because Julian Edelman has broken ribs 735 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,399 Speaker 1: or something's wrong with them, right, he played the game 736 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: because he's one of the toughest SLBs in league history. 737 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 1: And as Brady would tell you, Jewels ain't missing time 738 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: and he won't and he's he's a Patriot through and through. 739 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 1: That's why Bill likes him and why he's not gonna 740 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: Wally pip him because he he's a ward daddy. But 741 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: he was six max yesterday. Their first round pick is 742 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: on injured reserve. It's hard to run against the Bill, 743 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 1: so it's gonna be a very past heavy game. Gronkowski's 744 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 1: long gone. They just you know, did Josh Gordon has 745 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,479 Speaker 1: been banged up like they needed Antonio Brown? They didn't 746 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,399 Speaker 1: just do it like the rich got richer, because that's 747 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: kind of what I thought. And then you watch him play, 748 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: You're like, damn, now that Edelman's banged up and Gronk's 749 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: not there there there are some holes in their passing game. 750 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: You can't just throw it to running backs every single 751 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: place they needed a b and just like they're gonna 752 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: need to kill Harry to get right and they're gonna 753 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 1: need him to come back. Now, I'm not saying I'm 754 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,399 Speaker 1: not you're stupid if you're in the business of writing 755 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 1: this team off or they have a flaw. Sometimes you 756 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 1: know what Brady would tell you or Bribbie Belichick would 757 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: tell you, We've had many teams over this last decade 758 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: that we're much more. Our offense carried us the majority 759 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: of the year. Remember some of those Patricia teams. And 760 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna get in the protricial here. In a second, 761 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 1: defense was awful. Didn't they lose a Super Bowl? We're 762 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: Tom Brady through for over five hundred yards because their 763 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: defense couldn't get a stop. They had no chance to 764 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,759 Speaker 1: get a stop against nick Foles. Can you imagine if 765 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: people got that defense, with the defense right now, with 766 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,800 Speaker 1: that team, they wouldn't lost a game. That's just the 767 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,720 Speaker 1: way the NFL is. Ebbs and flows, injuries happen. Defense 768 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 1: scaring him, there's nothing wrong with that. And a win's 769 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 1: a win. That's an impressive win. You go on the road. 770 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: It's Belichick. This defense is legit. And the big reason 771 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,399 Speaker 1: it's not like they have some superstar pass rushers, it's 772 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: their coverage unit is unstoppable. And Josh Allen Man, you 773 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: can't just throw it up. This is you are not 774 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: playing uh you see Davis here, buddy, You are not 775 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: playing U and LV. This is not even the Cincinnati Bengals. 776 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 1: This is the New England Patriots. You are better off 777 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: taking sacks than throwing it up and throwing picks. You 778 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: will lose every single time. I repeat every single time. 779 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: If you throw three picks against the Patriots on the road, 780 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: at home or on a neutral site, you will lose 781 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,200 Speaker 1: one million percent of the time. He didn't play winning 782 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: football yesterday. It's just that simple. The Bill's defense, top 783 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,240 Speaker 1: notch coaching staff, Sean McDermott, top notch Patriot team, pretty 784 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: top notch, even though a little flawed right now with 785 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: the passing game. Josh Allen was this kind of the 786 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 1: outlier of that game, like, bro, what are you doing? 787 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: And then Matt Patricia. I text a couple of people 788 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 1: in the league and they thought that I was being 789 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 1: a little harsh. But my takeaway is just because you're 790 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 1: a smart guy doesn't mean you do smart things right. 791 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 1: Not saying that Matt Protrici is a bad coach. Belichick 792 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,439 Speaker 1: believed in this guy for a long period of time, 793 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: though the majority of the time he was a defensive 794 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,799 Speaker 1: coordinated Their defense is nowhere near as good as been 795 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. But I'll say this, watching 796 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions this year, they look well coached, They 797 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,879 Speaker 1: look talented. Their offense is good. Matt Staffords playing well, 798 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 1: Carrie on Johnson, the running back they have from Auburn's 799 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: playing well. They have a bunch of offensive weapons. Hawkinson 800 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:32,719 Speaker 1: is a really good player. Even though we got a 801 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: concussion yesterday. Their defense has been solid. Like I'm impressed, 802 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 1: but they were in a position to win the game yesterday, 803 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 1: or have a legitimate chance to win the game. They 804 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 1: took the game. They took the lead late, Mahomes got 805 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 1: the ball back down down three points, down three points 806 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 1: with a couple of minutes left, drives him down to 807 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,840 Speaker 1: the field. The Chiefs have one time out. Here's the sequence. 808 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,760 Speaker 1: They get a first down to the three yard line 809 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 1: with thirty seconds left. The Detroit Lions have three timeouts. 810 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 1: The Chiefs have one time out, meaning if you're at 811 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,919 Speaker 1: the three yard line. This is not college, so the 812 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: the clock does not stop. On the first down, Mahomes 813 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,320 Speaker 1: has to run up there at like the thirteen yard line. 814 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: You could run the ball right there, but if you're 815 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: forced to use the time out, you would need to 816 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,719 Speaker 1: be a little careful and then just take end zone 817 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 1: shots from there on out, because you have to make 818 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,320 Speaker 1: sure you're only down three. Your kicker gets an opportunity 819 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:33,959 Speaker 1: to kick it. The Lions call a time out, and 820 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,760 Speaker 1: if you want to tell me the defense is gas, whatever, Okay, 821 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: call the time out. There are thirty seconds left. You 822 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: might as well just let him score on the next 823 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,719 Speaker 1: play then and have two time outs getting the ball back, 824 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,280 Speaker 1: but you'd be down four. It's still be really difficult. 825 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 1: He then and he runs the ball and he gets 826 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: into the one yard line with twenty four seconds left. Again, 827 00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: the Chiefs have one time out remain. He calls a 828 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 1: time out. Again. Here's what the Chiefs would have had 829 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:03,399 Speaker 1: to do. If they did not call a time out. 830 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: They probably had two plays called in the huddle. So 831 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 1: if they have two plays called in the huddle, the 832 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,799 Speaker 1: second play more than likely is not gonna be another run. 833 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: You're gonna force their hand. Well, when did a situation 834 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 1: somewhat like this happened to the New England Patriots three 835 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: years ago or four years ago against the Seattle Seahawks. 836 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,439 Speaker 1: Who was on the sideline then, Matt Patricia. I don't 837 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 1: either let him play score on the first play and 838 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 1: then just take your shots with two time outs trying 839 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 1: to get down the field, which would still be really hard, 840 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,760 Speaker 1: or just play some defense. I get your guys are gassed, 841 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 1: but you might as well take a shot where you're 842 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 1: kind of forcing their hand to pass the ball. You 843 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 1: know they're only gonna be able to run at once 844 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: with calling back to back time outs. Again, for this 845 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: rocket scientist, if Matt Patricia took the Wonder Look score, 846 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 1: he'd probably score a perfect fifty out of fifty. The 847 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: guy's really really intellectually bright, I'm watching this guy, coach. 848 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 1: He did it last week against the Eagles when he 849 00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: had terrible clock management. He did in this game with 850 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 1: the timeouts where he put the advantage back in the 851 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: Chiefs hands where they already have an advantage because they 852 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 1: have an e lead offense. At least kind of forced 853 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: their hand on the on the goal line where the 854 00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: where the field like the Chiefs really kill you the 855 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 1: twenty because their track speed with a little harder user 856 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,359 Speaker 1: track speed when you're at the one yard line, because 857 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,759 Speaker 1: you can only run ten yards, the field is much 858 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 1: more wider than it is long. So force their hand 859 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 1: a little bit, force them to pass because if they 860 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: do run it, they'll probably have to use the time 861 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: out and then they'll just have to kick, or they'll 862 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 1: have to run back to back plays or spike the ball. 863 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 1: It'll just be a little more chaotic. Where you call 864 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 1: the time outs, you enable them to take a date breath, 865 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,399 Speaker 1: You allow the homes to go over the sideline, talk 866 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 1: to his head coach, which is also the play caller. 867 00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,279 Speaker 1: You allow them to dictate the personnel they want in 868 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 1: there is no chaos. Well, what did Belichick see several 869 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: years ago? Even if the Chiefs were not chaotic on 870 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 1: the sideline, because that was a big reason right Bill 871 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,879 Speaker 1: Belichick did not call a time out in the Super 872 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 1: Bowl because he said he looked across and saw them chaos. Well, 873 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,280 Speaker 1: even if I look across us and don't see chaos, 874 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,800 Speaker 1: they're just natural chaos. Given that the time is ticking, 875 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 1: you only have the one time out and you're down three. 876 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: This is not a tie game. You're down three points. 877 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: So they they do have to call multiple plays in 878 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: the huddle. If they do run the ball and get stuff, 879 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,440 Speaker 1: you have a good defensive line. Then you force their 880 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 1: hand of throwing on the next down because if they 881 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 1: run twice, they got to be very careful. You stuff 882 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: him again, they're gonna have to use the time out 883 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: and then they'll probably just have to do an end 884 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:31,400 Speaker 1: zone shot then kick the field goal. You complicate matters. 885 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,880 Speaker 1: But when you call back to back time outs, you 886 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 1: enable them to be in the driver's seat. And that's 887 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: what the Chiefs were because they ran it once after 888 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,840 Speaker 1: he called time out with thirty seconds left down to 889 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 1: I think twenty four seconds, got down to the one 890 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 1: yard line, calls the time out, Boom, they just run 891 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 1: it again. And score. It's like, Patricia, what are you doing? It? 892 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,279 Speaker 1: Just it baffled me watching it live. And I'm rooting 893 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 1: for the Chiefs. I wanted to see the Chiefs win, 894 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:59,319 Speaker 1: but and I couldn't believe he did it, especially when 895 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 1: he's about check he saw it firsthand. Even if there 896 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 1: again back, I don't even need to look over there, 897 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 1: even if they're not freaking out. There's a nature of 898 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 1: just a freak out when times against you and you 899 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,359 Speaker 1: only It's not like if the Chiefs had unlimited time 900 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 1: outs then it would not matter. Then I'd be like, 901 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,799 Speaker 1: I get it, But they didn't. They had one and 902 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 1: they had to make sure they had a chance to 903 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,840 Speaker 1: get a field goal off, and Patricia just kind of 904 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,279 Speaker 1: gave him a layup. Now you can argue, you're damned 905 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 1: if you do, you're damned if you don't. I get that. 906 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 1: But if that's if that's the case, you might as 907 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 1: well just let him score on the first play. You 908 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:31,439 Speaker 1: might as well just let him score and then take 909 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: twenty seven seconds with two time outs and attempt to 910 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,920 Speaker 1: you know, getting to hail mary situation. It really was 911 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,840 Speaker 1: baffling Matt Patricia. His team is pretty solid. They have 912 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 1: a lot of talent. He almost cost him the Eagles 913 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 1: game a couple of weeks ago when the field goal 914 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 1: got blocked and he I think he cost him this 915 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 1: game with his time out usage. Okay, well, Friday night 916 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 1: I went to the col Arizona State game. I got 917 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,839 Speaker 1: after a little bit with somebody's and that enabled me 918 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 1: to literally do nothing. Now nothing for me is I 919 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: get paid to watch football. So Saturday Sunday it wasn't 920 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: the most active run of my life. I didn't do much, 921 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: if anything, And I think, let's just go through all 922 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 1: the things I saw really quick on Saturday. A couple 923 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: of things really stood out to me. The the passing 924 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 1: offense for the Alabama Crimson Tide is just stupid. The 925 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 1: NFL level talent they have in their passing game with 926 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:32,319 Speaker 1: the wide receivers in the quarterback is jaw dropping, it's 927 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 1: eye opening, it's it's elite. It really is. In Ohio State. 928 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 1: I'm not the biggest herban Meyer guy. As a person, 929 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,799 Speaker 1: I just to me politicians. He might as well be 930 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: a politician. He says one thing, does another. But as 931 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: a coach and as a recruiter, he's as good as 932 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 1: we've ever seen The talent on Ohio State right now 933 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: is kind of like the Alabama passing game is eye opening. 934 00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 1: They beat the living you know what at a number asca. 935 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,319 Speaker 1: And I also think there's a reason football has three 936 00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:07,240 Speaker 1: years and then you can go pro because I watched 937 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:11,359 Speaker 1: a lot of Adrian Martinez, the Nebraska quarterback coming out 938 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: of high school. He's a Fresno guy, he was a 939 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 1: big time recruit, went to Nebraska. Then Scott Frost got 940 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 1: the job. I thought he was gonna be like a 941 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:22,279 Speaker 1: better version of Marcus Mariota. He's not any good. He 942 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 1: he he didn't belong in that game with Ohio State. 943 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 1: Justin Fields, the Blue Chipper ran circles around him. That's 944 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 1: what an NFL guy looks like, Adrian Martinez. And this 945 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 1: is that's why we see so many busting the NBA. 946 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,560 Speaker 1: It's hard to determine how good a guy is gonna 947 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 1: be at eighteen years old. I mean, I do this 948 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 1: for a living. I love watching the scrap and I thought, God, 949 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:41,759 Speaker 1: this guy is gonna be awesome and he's just not. 950 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 1: Thought the same thing about j T. Daniels and went 951 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 1: to USC. Clay Holton's done, like it's over, you know 952 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 1: it's it's inevitable. Now now I get a lot of questions. 953 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 1: Who's gonna be the next coach at USC. I don't know, 954 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 1: but it's it's it's cash money for him. He's just 955 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,439 Speaker 1: riding out this season. They're gonna lose more games. They're 956 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,799 Speaker 1: they're not very good. They're just not very good, and 957 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 1: it's it's sad to see that USC has fallen. I 958 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 1: said this before and I'll say it again. I think 959 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: Chip stealing right now from U c l A. They 960 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 1: lost Arizona. But I don't even think he tries. He's 961 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 1: so stubborn in his offense. He doesn't like recruiting. I 962 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 1: do respect Clay. I think he's trying. He recruits his 963 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:20,239 Speaker 1: ass off I mean he attempts to land players. Yeah, 964 00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:22,799 Speaker 1: I think he spends the night in his office. He's 965 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 1: given everything he has now. At the highest level of 966 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: any business, sometimes the best you have just is not 967 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: good enough. And I think that's the case with Clay Helton. 968 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 1: It's just not good enough. But I do respect his effort. 969 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 1: Unlike Chip, who's mailing it in. Who's one and four 970 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 1: and he's not gonna make a Bowl game And back 971 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 1: to back years at U c l A. The guy's 972 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 1: not at cal Pola here. You know, he's not at Nevada. 973 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 1: He's at U c l A. He's getting I mean 974 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 1: he lost to Arizona. That's a bad loss. Washington. I 975 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 1: think right now Washington and Utah are the clear two 976 00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 1: best teams out West. Oklahoma, Lincoln Riley's a stud. He 977 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 1: made it would I just watched ten minutes of Oklahoma. 978 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:03,760 Speaker 1: He made Jalen Hurst look like Aaron Rodgers. Guys, God, 979 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:07,840 Speaker 1: I mean Oklahoma. It's there are six or seven teams 980 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 1: like got the one. This is the first time in 981 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:13,200 Speaker 1: a while where some really really good teams. It's gonna 982 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 1: be terming on the field with Penn State, with Georgia, 983 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 1: with l s U, with Obama, with Auburn, with Clemson, 984 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:23,960 Speaker 1: with Ohio State, maybe Wisconsin. There's they're gonna be some 985 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 1: really good teams to get left out of this playoffs. 986 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: I I think there are eight to nine teams that 987 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:32,279 Speaker 1: can win the national championship. I'd go Obama and no 988 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 1: particular order. Obama, Clemson, Ohio State, Auburn, who looks awesome, 989 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 1: l s U, Georgia, Oklahoma. That's that's seven. That's a 990 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:46,840 Speaker 1: pretty damn good seven. You could probably throw Penn State in. 991 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 1: They're not quite sure about them in Wisconsin there, so 992 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: there's some really really good teams. Uh. College football is 993 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,760 Speaker 1: just because I'm an NFL guy. I love college football. 994 00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna I'm just gonna fire through some of 995 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:00,879 Speaker 1: these games that I haven't touched on. Tight and Falcons 996 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 1: Titans are what they are. Probably eight nine wins, blue 997 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,359 Speaker 1: collar win, a couple of games, lose, a couple of games, 998 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: be right around five hundred. Solid operation Mariota kind of 999 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:13,560 Speaker 1: holds him back. Falcons are a disaster, an absolute dumpster fire. 1000 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if you've seen that video of the 1001 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 1: win viral of the fan screaming at the players. Of course, 1002 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,760 Speaker 1: some of the media people like, this is over the line, bs, 1003 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:24,800 Speaker 1: that's what the fans are saying, That's what everyone in 1004 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 1: the media was tweeting. This guy's just speaking speaking real words. 1005 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 1: Falcons are an embarrassment. I've used the stat on here before. 1006 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 1: He was the first head coach to fire all three 1007 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 1: coordinators and keep his job since nine. That's as big 1008 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,399 Speaker 1: of a red flag as you're ever gonna see. Next. 1009 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 1: It's been thirty years since a guy didn't get fired 1010 00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:48,000 Speaker 1: and was able to fire all three coordinators. Of course, 1011 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,799 Speaker 1: it's a dumpster fire. I'd say the biggest shock of 1012 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,399 Speaker 1: the weekend was the Raiders beat down the Colts. They 1013 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 1: destroyed the Colts, outplayed them start to finish. The Cults 1014 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 1: were missing some players. T Y was out, Darius Leonard 1015 00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 1: was out. But it was a beat down. It really was. 1016 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,520 Speaker 1: That the score is not indicative of the game. It 1017 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 1: was a two score game, final scores, but it it was. 1018 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 1: You watched the game start to finish, it was a 1019 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:16,160 Speaker 1: two score game. Now where the Colts already overlooking them, 1020 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know the game, it's kind of 1021 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,239 Speaker 1: a trap game. They got the Chief Sunday night coming up. 1022 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know if the Cults are quite good 1023 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 1: enough to be overlooking teams, but they got beat down. 1024 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 1: That was shocking. You know that that was shocking Someone 1025 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,080 Speaker 1: that follows the Raiders for a living, I would have said, no, 1026 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 1: the Raiders have no chance. I don't care if t 1027 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: Y is in a suite or on the field. It 1028 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:37,840 Speaker 1: doesn't matter that they're not gonna win. And they played 1029 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:39,399 Speaker 1: their best game of the season, might be the best 1030 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 1: game they played this year. Now the Raiders are gonna 1031 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 1: get a little bit of a wake up call playing 1032 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 1: the Bears now on the road like it's in London. 1033 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 1: A little different animal Chargers, Dolphins, no thoughts. I mean 1034 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. You don't deserve to be talked about. When 1035 00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: you actively tank, you get beat by twenty plus points 1036 00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:58,800 Speaker 1: every week. I even thought the point spread was a 1037 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:00,839 Speaker 1: little small this week, it was like sixteen and a half. 1038 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,359 Speaker 1: Last time I saw it, they got beat by twenty. 1039 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 1: Just the Dolphins are an embarrassment. I refuse to even 1040 00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 1: give them my takes. Redskins Giants, I'll be the first 1041 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:13,160 Speaker 1: one to admit I did not watch one snap of 1042 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: this game. Under no circumstances would you get John Middlecoff's 1043 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 1: time on a Sunday morning watching this game. Now, granted 1044 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,720 Speaker 1: I didn't. I wasn't gonna like watching on my iPad. 1045 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:26,280 Speaker 1: I know Danny Dimes through a couple of picks the Redskins. 1046 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: You know the Kevin Clark had one of the tweets 1047 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 1: of the year, Like, just realized the Miami Dolphins are 1048 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 1: actively trying to lose. The Washington Redskins are not attempting 1049 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:38,960 Speaker 1: to do this. They are trying to win games and 1050 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 1: they're in major trouble. I mean, Josh Norman shot case 1051 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 1: kingom stinks. You put in Dwayne Haskins. He's got no shot. 1052 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 1: Uh not not on this team anyways. Somehow the Giants 1053 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,120 Speaker 1: are two and two their defense. When you play the 1054 00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:55,600 Speaker 1: Giants and who have one of the worst defenses we've 1055 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,880 Speaker 1: ever seen and can only manage to score three points. 1056 00:51:58,480 --> 00:51:59,839 Speaker 1: You know, I know some of the stories were coming 1057 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 1: out that Jake Gruden was gonna be releaved of his duties. 1058 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:03,759 Speaker 1: I think Jake Gruden will be so happy the moment 1059 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:05,480 Speaker 1: they tell him to go home. I think it will 1060 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 1: be the best thing that ever happens to him is 1061 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:10,320 Speaker 1: when they fire him. I'd say the second most shocking 1062 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 1: outcome of the weekend beside Colt Raiders, was not just 1063 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: the Brown's winning, because the Browns do have good players. 1064 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 1: They kicked the crap out of the Ravens and ride 1065 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:22,240 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb, he's a star. Baker was much more under control. 1066 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,080 Speaker 1: Every time I've watched the Browns, Steve Wilkes has done 1067 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:26,719 Speaker 1: a really good job. You know, we saw two head 1068 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:30,279 Speaker 1: coaches get fired last year and then they become defensive coordinators. 1069 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,959 Speaker 1: Steve Wilkes and Vance Joseph. Vance Joseph has no shot 1070 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,800 Speaker 1: there's on The Cardinals defense is awful. Steven Wilkes defense 1071 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 1: is pretty good. They tackle well in space. They they've 1072 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,880 Speaker 1: been impressive run the ball, play defense. That's kind of 1073 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:43,920 Speaker 1: the formula. Listen, I'm rooting for this guy. I root 1074 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:45,839 Speaker 1: for high character players, even if I don't like him. 1075 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 1: But Lamar Jackson's come back to Earth and Lamar Jackson 1076 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 1: was not good in that game. He just missing open guys. 1077 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 1: Just kind of the knock on him coming out that 1078 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 1: that was It's one thing to lose divisional opponent on 1079 00:52:57,960 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 1: the road, it's another thing to kind of get worked. 1080 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: And it was forty five and the Ravens scored fifteen 1081 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 1: points in the fourth quarter, So kind of like last 1082 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 1: week against the Chiefs, the score is not indicative of 1083 00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 1: the of the game. This was pretty kind of shocking. 1084 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 1: Kyle Allen's now two and oh it's something we need 1085 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:17,120 Speaker 1: to keep an eye on. Ron reverevery ain't going down easy. 1086 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 1: And this is why Cam sucking was such a big deal. 1087 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 1: This is not three or four years ago. This team 1088 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:25,839 Speaker 1: have has weapons. McCaffrey is probably right up there with Alvin, Kamar, 1089 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:27,760 Speaker 1: and z because the best three running backs in the NFL. 1090 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,840 Speaker 1: D J. Morris's stud Greg Olsen can still play. Samuel's 1091 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:35,319 Speaker 1: a good player, Luke Keickley still making plays. Revere and 1092 00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 1: his coaching stafford solid. But to score ten points against 1093 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 1: the Panthers at home, you know, I know there was 1094 00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,360 Speaker 1: the clip of Deshaun Watson staying after and working with 1095 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,799 Speaker 1: the quarterback coach. I like Deshohn Watson. To me, that's 1096 00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 1: a little too like for social media type move, but 1097 00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, it is what it is. It's you know, 1098 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 1: what kids do these days. But you know, come on, man, uh, 1099 00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 1: Texans just kind of a weird team. I don't really 1100 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,720 Speaker 1: you know what to make of them. Like the Texans 1101 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 1: and Panthers are both doing too, but I don't know, 1102 00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: I I don't even know what to say about those 1103 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 1: two teams, Like the pants is really gonna keep winning 1104 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:11,479 Speaker 1: with their backup quarterback or the Texans really gonna lose. 1105 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 1: The teams like led by Kyle Allen, Seahawks, Cardinals, I 1106 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 1: can't say anyone shocked. The Cardinals are a disaster. You 1107 00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,359 Speaker 1: know that they're lucky they tied that opening week because 1108 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 1: I don't see how they're gonna win many games. Their quarterback, 1109 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:27,839 Speaker 1: to me, is the least of their worries. Kyler Murray 1110 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:30,839 Speaker 1: runs around, he makes some plays. Yesterday was two two 1111 00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 1: or forty yards. Uh. He added another twenty seven on 1112 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 1: the ground, had a rushing touchdown. Like he's not that 1113 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 1: big of a disaster. They can't cover anybody. And just 1114 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury, just when he's a head coach, they don't 1115 00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,520 Speaker 1: win very often. It's just that simple. And Russell Wilson, 1116 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:47,359 Speaker 1: when I watched the Seahawks, they're a little like an 1117 00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,440 Speaker 1: NBA team. They have a star player in Russell Wilson. 1118 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,960 Speaker 1: They have some other good role players like Clowney, Bobby Wagner. 1119 00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 1: I mean, those guys are better role players, but you 1120 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:56,880 Speaker 1: know what I mean. And they just they got three 1121 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:58,959 Speaker 1: or four impact players. The rest of their rosters pretty 1122 00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:01,560 Speaker 1: random and they just win. When's all. When the dost settles, 1123 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:03,720 Speaker 1: they'll have be ten and six, but there'll be eleven 1124 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 1: and five because that's just what Seattle does, big big 1125 00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 1: Thursday night games, Seattle hosting the Rams. That's that's actually 1126 00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 1: a fan. We've had great back to back Thursday night games. 1127 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:17,640 Speaker 1: Vikings Bears touched on that. I mean, Kirk Cousins, go away, Gardner, 1128 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,920 Speaker 1: mit you there's something special about the guy. Uh he was. 1129 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 1: I watched just about every snap of the Broncos Jaguars 1130 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 1: and they were getting their butt kicked in the first half, 1131 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: and Gardner minshew, man, he just makes plays in the 1132 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:30,959 Speaker 1: second half. Leonard Fournette, I think some people talk about 1133 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,600 Speaker 1: him like he's a scrub. And I was texting with 1134 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 1: a buddy in the NFL yesterday. I said, if if 1135 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette had been the twenty ninth pick or the 1136 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:40,879 Speaker 1: thirty four pick, I think we'd be like, this guy's 1137 00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 1: pretty solid player and say it was the fourth overall pick. 1138 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 1: So when you're that high, you expect Zeke Elliott, you 1139 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:50,440 Speaker 1: expect Adrian Peterson. You know, Marshawn lanch a superstar, and 1140 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,879 Speaker 1: I don't think he's that. But he's pretty damn good. 1141 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,400 Speaker 1: And you saw yesterday he's got good moves in the 1142 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 1: open field. He runs hard for a big back, he 1143 00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:00,439 Speaker 1: can break tackles, He gets north and south like he's 1144 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 1: not some wooss who tiptoes. You know. We used to 1145 00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:07,799 Speaker 1: call him Brandon Jacobs. After they won a Super Bowl 1146 00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:09,920 Speaker 1: with the Giants. When I was in Philly the Tiptoe Burger, 1147 00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:11,799 Speaker 1: he didn't want any of the contact. That's not Leonard 1148 00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 1: four Nette is Lauren his shoulder and hitting folks. So 1149 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,319 Speaker 1: that's an impressive win for the Jaguars, who I've been 1150 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 1: saying my two teams that I am not cut quite 1151 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 1: right off are the Jaguars and the Buccaneers. The Jaguars 1152 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:28,920 Speaker 1: this weekend go to go to Carolina. You don't think 1153 00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:31,600 Speaker 1: they can win against Carolina, short little trip. Then they 1154 00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:34,319 Speaker 1: get the Saints, then they get the Bengals Jets. So 1155 00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 1: they could be three and two, three and three, I 1156 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 1: mean they could be five and three. You'll look up. 1157 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,520 Speaker 1: The Jaguars could be five and three. I'm telling you 1158 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:47,120 Speaker 1: that them in the Buccaneers, Them in the Buccaneers. Baby. 1159 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 1: Let's fire off some questions. With technology always advancing to 1160 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:54,840 Speaker 1: providing viewers with a more interactive experience in sports, catcher 1161 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 1: came in baseball, for example, how long until we get 1162 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,719 Speaker 1: a p o V like that word p o V 1163 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,759 Speaker 1: camera feed from the quarterback position in football? Will we ever? 1164 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:08,600 Speaker 1: I would say probably not for a while, just because 1165 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,560 Speaker 1: I mean, business is so good for the NFL. Ratings 1166 00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:16,160 Speaker 1: are so high, you know, I don't know. I mean, 1167 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 1: I think part of the camera angles, you're able to 1168 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 1: see most of what's going on. That would be pretty cool. 1169 00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 1: I wouldn't, I would say never, say never. You know, 1170 00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if many people listening I've ever tried 1171 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 1: the oculus. I know there are multiple, you know, virtual reality. 1172 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 1: That's the only one I've ever tried. They're pretty cool. 1173 00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: They're actually really cool. I've actually looked at them on 1174 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 1: Stanford's campus. They have them for the quarterbacks. I just 1175 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 1: maybe that'll change once VR becomes a bigger deal in 1176 00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:44,920 Speaker 1: our life, which still might be years away, but it's coming, 1177 00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 1: I mean one day. So I would say, when virtual 1178 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:50,360 Speaker 1: reality becomes a big is there a chance when I'm 1179 00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:53,000 Speaker 1: about to be thirty five, When I'm like fifty five, 1180 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm sitting there with my kids and 1181 00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:58,200 Speaker 1: we're watching football, and we don't even sit there and 1182 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,600 Speaker 1: watch football together. We all just have on our oculist 1183 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 1: is or whatever the VR is, and we're just watching 1184 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 1: you know, Tom Brady's probably sixties, still playing against you know, 1185 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 1: forty year old my homes is that what we're watching. 1186 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 1: Maybe Brown's fan currently living in Washington seat coming out 1187 00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:16,040 Speaker 1: to the Bay Area for Monday night football game in 1188 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,840 Speaker 1: two weeks. Any advice is on place to go before 1189 00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:21,920 Speaker 1: the game that Levi Stadium. Praying to God Baker can 1190 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 1: figure it out this weekend what he did. Uh yeah, 1191 00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,280 Speaker 1: that's a good question. I mean, I live about an 1192 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 1: hour north. You know, if you're staying in the city, 1193 00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:33,320 Speaker 1: go to the city. I'm not too well versed on 1194 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 1: the Santa Clara area. If I were you and you're 1195 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: staying down there, I shoot up to pala Alta or 1196 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:42,680 Speaker 1: Stanford's campuses. Have dinner somewhere on Stanford's campus. Just google 1197 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 1: some nice restaurants. Uh, you know, you know what's crazy? 1198 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 1: And I think l A's probably a little bit like this. 1199 00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:50,400 Speaker 1: I've only lived in a couple of big cities in 1200 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,080 Speaker 1: my life. I grew up around Sacramento and Davis, and 1201 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 1: we come to the Bay Area lot, but we just 1202 00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 1: go to the city. My grandparents lived kind of by 1203 00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 1: cal Berkeley's campus once, now that the traffic is so bad, 1204 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:03,680 Speaker 1: And I think l A is like this on a 1205 00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:07,040 Speaker 1: much much bigger level. But like, I only go to 1206 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 1: Santa Clara one for football reasons and to only if 1207 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:12,600 Speaker 1: it works for my schedule and I can avoid traffic 1208 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:14,520 Speaker 1: because if you go, I know a lot of people 1209 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,400 Speaker 1: that like live where I live, and I live twenty 1210 00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 1: minutes away from the city kind of you know, ten 1211 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 1: minutes north of Oakland on the east Side. We call 1212 00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,760 Speaker 1: that the East Bay. If you go at the wrong time, 1213 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 1: it could take me two hours to get to Santa Clara, 1214 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:31,560 Speaker 1: even though I live forty five minutes away, and then 1215 00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 1: two and a half hours back. So I'll be honest, 1216 00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:36,760 Speaker 1: I just go kind of the Levi Stadium. That's the 1217 00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:39,480 Speaker 1: only reason I've ever gone down there. Like if I 1218 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 1: if I met some beautiful girl that lived in San Jose, 1219 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 1: I don't even think it'd be possible to date. I 1220 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:45,919 Speaker 1: think it's seriously, we would never see each other because 1221 00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: I ain't driving down there. I wouldn't want her to. 1222 00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind her driving up here. But uh, let's see. 1223 00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 1: The last few years, we have seen NFL teams try 1224 00:59:56,960 --> 01:00:00,480 Speaker 1: to hire young, offensive minded head coaches Shanahan, McVeigh and more. 1225 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Although when I look at the best offenses and defensive 1226 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:05,840 Speaker 1: total yards and for three weeks, many of these offensive 1227 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,680 Speaker 1: savants have a better rank defense than offense. Can you 1228 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 1: explain this phenomenon teams. I've talked about Rams sixteen offense, 1229 01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:24,400 Speaker 1: Third D Packers offense, Chicago, Cleveland. I don't you equated 1230 01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:29,920 Speaker 1: this on yards? Total yards. I don't put I'll be honest. 1231 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 1: Total yards are pretty meaningless, you know. I judge defenses 1232 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 1: on points, on third down percentage. I don't think yards 1233 01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:42,520 Speaker 1: means that much anymore. Like, for example, the Ravens the 1234 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:44,240 Speaker 1: last couple of years have put on or I mean, 1235 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:45,600 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks have put on a bunch 1236 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 1: of hollow yards late in the game. A couple of 1237 01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:51,360 Speaker 1: weeks ago, Russell Wilson in the Seattle threw a bunch 1238 01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:54,160 Speaker 1: of hollow yards against the Saints. To me, yards don't 1239 01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 1: mean that much. I I look much more scoring defense. 1240 01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:02,320 Speaker 1: I also think it's just usually, just anytime in football history, 1241 01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 1: defenses are usually ahead of the offense. Now that the 1242 01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 1: starting quarterbacks don't play in the preseason, I think this 1243 01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 1: month of September is a little preseason ish. You know, 1244 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:16,080 Speaker 1: it's just it's hard to get uh, it's hard to 1245 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 1: get the timing down when you don't practice. This is 1246 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 1: it's not baseball, you know, we're basketball. Or you just 1247 01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:24,120 Speaker 1: get to play four or five seven nights a week. 1248 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:27,360 Speaker 1: You just get played once a week. In football, you 1249 01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:29,440 Speaker 1: don't get all the off season like in in in 1250 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,880 Speaker 1: the NBA, these guys can off season play pick up games. 1251 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 1: Obviously it's not the same speed as an NBA game, 1252 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 1: but you're getting a legit run. Like there's no run 1253 01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,160 Speaker 1: in football. You just work out. You have O, T 1254 01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:41,440 Speaker 1: A s. But you're in helmets and shorts and T shirts. 1255 01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 1: The main part of the game is tackling, right, throwing, 1256 01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:48,840 Speaker 1: catching and tackling. Well, you can't tackle when you're just 1257 01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 1: in shorts and a T shirt. So it's it's difficult 1258 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:55,400 Speaker 1: digging the opening riffs. What's the name of the time. 1259 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:58,760 Speaker 1: I don't really know what that means. If you mean 1260 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 1: the opening song, it's just some song that someone created. 1261 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:05,520 Speaker 1: I might you might be asking about something completely different. 1262 01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:09,160 Speaker 1: Maybe I just don't quite know what you're saying. Betting advice. 1263 01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: I love the round robin. Take a four or five 1264 01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 1: team parlay and bet each combination of each parlay. It's 1265 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:16,680 Speaker 1: a no brainer. Well, we all want to win three 1266 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 1: or five. It accelerate your winning staggering. Better amounts equal 1267 01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:25,640 Speaker 1: greater payouts. Before you discussed on the podcast I'll show 1268 01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:27,560 Speaker 1: you I hit well. I guess I wasn't supposed to 1269 01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 1: discuss take four Games you Love fifty straight up on 1270 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 1: all four lines, then round robin thirty on the two 1271 01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 1: game parlays, twenty on the three game parlays, and twenty 1272 01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 1: on the four game parlays. Sounds fascinating. I might have 1273 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 1: to it might be a little over my head. I 1274 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 1: don't even think I just followed that. I'm not even 1275 01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:48,760 Speaker 1: sure what that meant. But did you just figure out Vegas? That? 1276 01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:50,800 Speaker 1: I might have to read that again because it just 1277 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 1: sounded like you just figured out Vegas. The problem with 1278 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:58,920 Speaker 1: parlays is I've hit maybe five big ones in my life, 1279 01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 1: and I've lost, like most people, thousands. Then it seems 1280 01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 1: a lot easier than it actually is. Why hasn't Jack 1281 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:08,160 Speaker 1: Barrett gotten any love yet? He has been the best 1282 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 1: defensive player so far, barely gets to mention it all. 1283 01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 1: If he was on the Cowboys, yeah, I mean the 1284 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 1: reality is, like I love this statement, and we use 1285 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 1: a statement all the time. If he was on the Cowboys, 1286 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:20,480 Speaker 1: if if this dude was on the Yankees, if this 1287 01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 1: guy played for the Warriors, Like, yeah, I mean, if 1288 01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:24,840 Speaker 1: they played for those teams, we were talking about them. 1289 01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:27,320 Speaker 1: More like if you're a wide receiver and no one's 1290 01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:28,880 Speaker 1: talking about you, and you're like, well if the guy 1291 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:31,960 Speaker 1: cut balls from Mahomes and Rogers, well yeah, that's part 1292 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:33,919 Speaker 1: of the deal. If you're playing in Buffalo, we ain't 1293 01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:37,040 Speaker 1: talking about you. This is all a numbers game. Like 1294 01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:39,000 Speaker 1: who do I talk about? I try to talk about 1295 01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 1: big markets, try to take a kind of a queue 1296 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:44,920 Speaker 1: from Colin Slash with things I'm fired up about. But 1297 01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:47,040 Speaker 1: if I just every day and this is not a 1298 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:49,200 Speaker 1: shot at the Bills, I like Sean McDermott. If I 1299 01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 1: just talked Bills as like the Jaguars flips my guy. 1300 01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:54,680 Speaker 1: I love Gardner Manchew. I'm just using an example here 1301 01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:57,280 Speaker 1: and I'm showing you like I don't just follow the numbers, 1302 01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:59,520 Speaker 1: because if I just wanted to do quote unquote the 1303 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:04,560 Speaker 1: Biggest numb Or podcast, I would just talk about the Patriots, Cowboys, Packers, 1304 01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:06,960 Speaker 1: and Eagles. Those would be the only and I still talk. 1305 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:09,080 Speaker 1: I try to make an emphasis to talk about it, 1306 01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 1: but I'll talk about whatever. I like Gardner Minshall talk 1307 01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:14,240 Speaker 1: about Gardner Minshew, Kirk Cousins, Minnesota Vikea. I'll talk about it, 1308 01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:16,840 Speaker 1: but there's a reason that guys like Shaq Barty, you 1309 01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:19,080 Speaker 1: playing Tampa Bay, we're not really talking about you, but 1310 01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:21,560 Speaker 1: it's the NFL. We still won't mention you. He's had 1311 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,600 Speaker 1: an incredible start to this season, but the reality is 1312 01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,280 Speaker 1: that more people are gonna talk about klil Mac because 1313 01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:29,120 Speaker 1: his season has been pretty damn good too, and he 1314 01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:31,800 Speaker 1: plays with the freak in Chicago Bears. So it's just 1315 01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:34,920 Speaker 1: I get it. Listen. I grew up in Davis, California. 1316 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:36,960 Speaker 1: I rooted for the Sacramento Kings for a long time. 1317 01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:40,400 Speaker 1: All we wanted was respect, And I understand. And I'm 1318 01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:43,400 Speaker 1: not really a King's fan anymore. I actually like the 1319 01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:45,959 Speaker 1: Warriors now more. But I get why, you know, people 1320 01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,440 Speaker 1: talk about the Lakers more. I even get now looking 1321 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:51,120 Speaker 1: back when Tim Donahee, who I read his book is 1322 01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:53,000 Speaker 1: actually a great read from Philly. I spent a lot 1323 01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 1: of time at that Marriott where he got arrested in 1324 01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:59,400 Speaker 1: used to meet with the mob. I get why the NBA, 1325 01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 1: because it used to be pissed everyone off in Sacramento. 1326 01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 1: Why would the NBA want the Lakers? It just drove 1327 01:05:05,320 --> 01:05:07,440 Speaker 1: all of us nuts and now that I did this 1328 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,600 Speaker 1: for a living, of course, I know why the NBA 1329 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:12,240 Speaker 1: wanted the Lakers. I would too, I'd want to Kobe 1330 01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:13,960 Speaker 1: in the finals. I might have rigged the deal as 1331 01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 1: well if I was David Stern. I don't blame them, 1332 01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:18,400 Speaker 1: though they claimed it was a rog official I'm gonna 1333 01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 1: claim BS on that, but I understand it. We talked 1334 01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:23,680 Speaker 1: about the big markets because this is all the numbers game, 1335 01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:25,760 Speaker 1: and there are more people in the big markets. So 1336 01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:29,320 Speaker 1: if you talk about forty nine and the Cowboys and 1337 01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:31,720 Speaker 1: the Eagles, more people are gonna listen that if you 1338 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:35,720 Speaker 1: talk about the Arizona Cardinals, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and 1339 01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:39,280 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars, it's just simple mathematics. That doesn't mean 1340 01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:41,959 Speaker 1: I don't like talking about a lot of those teams, 1341 01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:45,000 Speaker 1: because I do. I watch all teams in all sports. 1342 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:48,880 Speaker 1: But I've grown to like Alabama and Ohio State. They're 1343 01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:51,600 Speaker 1: just better. I've grown to like and be interested when 1344 01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:54,360 Speaker 1: the Cowboys are good because when they are good, they 1345 01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:57,160 Speaker 1: are more interesting just because more people care. But if 1346 01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 1: Shaq Barack is playing like this, regardless of how many 1347 01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:01,960 Speaker 1: people talk talk about Tampa Bay every day, he will 1348 01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 1: win the defensive player of the year. If he ends 1349 01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:06,600 Speaker 1: with like Sacks, I promise you that he will get 1350 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:11,760 Speaker 1: his recognition. Why don't broadcast show more of the announcer 1351 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 1: player entrances usually super high energy and cool to watch. 1352 01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:18,720 Speaker 1: I think it's just a time crunch. You only have 1353 01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:22,600 Speaker 1: so much time. And the the reason that broadcasts were 1354 01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 1: able to watch him right is because of advertisements. So 1355 01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,280 Speaker 1: they have to get advertisers in. That's the that's the 1356 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:30,320 Speaker 1: way they pay for everything. You know, a lot of 1357 01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:34,280 Speaker 1: these broadcasters ain't making here, so you gotta pay these 1358 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:37,560 Speaker 1: guys a lot of money. What's up, John, Big Fan, 1359 01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:40,040 Speaker 1: and I have a Big twelve question for you? Why 1360 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:42,600 Speaker 1: are the defenses in general so sloppy and not filled 1361 01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:45,160 Speaker 1: with equal talent compared to the team's offenses. Is it 1362 01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:49,680 Speaker 1: because most teams have offensive minded guys? Riley Gundy Campbell 1363 01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:52,320 Speaker 1: being the first to come to mind, Thanks a bunch, 1364 01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:55,960 Speaker 1: that's a good question. I've had Drew Hill, who's in 1365 01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 1: charge of Oklahoma's recruiting one here before. I don't even 1366 01:06:58,680 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 1: know if we ask him that, que I think I've 1367 01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:03,200 Speaker 1: talked with them before about it, and just read a 1368 01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,600 Speaker 1: lot about the Big Twelve. I think you're starting to 1369 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:08,440 Speaker 1: see this In the NFL. You build your personnel to 1370 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:11,240 Speaker 1: who you're gonna play. So if you're in the NFL, 1371 01:07:11,560 --> 01:07:13,480 Speaker 1: you do kind of try to focus on who you 1372 01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:16,840 Speaker 1: have to beat in your division. Now, for like the Patriots, 1373 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, they're just focused on the playoffs, Like 1374 01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:22,200 Speaker 1: are they really waking up sleeping about the Jets and 1375 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:25,320 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. But you try to focus on like if 1376 01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:27,920 Speaker 1: Von Miller's in your division and Melvin Ingram's in your 1377 01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:31,320 Speaker 1: vision and Frank Clark's in your division, you gotta get tackles. 1378 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:35,400 Speaker 1: So Gruden got some tackles right in. In college football, 1379 01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:39,080 Speaker 1: if you're in the Big twelve, they're all running spread offenses, 1380 01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:41,480 Speaker 1: so you can't have a bunch of two down mics 1381 01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 1: and a bunch of nose tackles. You need to get smaller, 1382 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 1: quicker guys to cover and play sideline the sideline, and 1383 01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:51,560 Speaker 1: I think the NFL has been similar to that. Look 1384 01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:53,200 Speaker 1: at a lot of the defensive players that have been 1385 01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:57,520 Speaker 1: drafted non DBS these last couple of years. The linebackers 1386 01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:02,040 Speaker 1: are smaller and quicker, a lot more just speed pass rushers. 1387 01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:05,560 Speaker 1: The game's changed. If you were playing Alabama and you 1388 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 1: were at Oklahoma. Let's say you Oklahoma moved to the 1389 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:10,880 Speaker 1: SEC and they put him in the SEC West them 1390 01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:15,880 Speaker 1: and let's just this hypothetical them in Ole Miss switch spots. Well, 1391 01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:18,599 Speaker 1: well Miss would have to change the way they recruited 1392 01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:21,599 Speaker 1: on defense differently than if they were playing Oklahoma State, 1393 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:25,439 Speaker 1: Iowa State, Kansas State, Texas. I think you just build 1394 01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:28,200 Speaker 1: it in college football, but who you're gonna play? And 1395 01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:30,240 Speaker 1: I see it out here on the West coast herm 1396 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:36,360 Speaker 1: ed words, the Utah uh Cal. They're building teams kind 1397 01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 1: of like Stanford is built for the last ten years, 1398 01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:42,360 Speaker 1: physical teams. They're gonna play defense, low scoring games. They 1399 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:44,599 Speaker 1: want to hit you in the teeth, which I like. 1400 01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,640 Speaker 1: I I was at Wilcox. Beside, the quarterback play was 1401 01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:50,840 Speaker 1: terrible at the Cow games Friday night. The defensive play 1402 01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:53,400 Speaker 1: in the Pact twelve has improved greatly. That's why Chip 1403 01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:55,720 Speaker 1: Kelly is getting smashed. Like Chip, some of these teams 1404 01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,320 Speaker 1: are playing defense. Buddy, you might want to this isn't 1405 01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 1: just about offense offense, offense, off It's two thousand nineteen. 1406 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:07,240 Speaker 1: Let's adapt recently started listening to podcasts after Colin, You 1407 01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:10,400 Speaker 1: are my next go to love your stuff, appreciate it. 1408 01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on the Bills after their game 1409 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:15,599 Speaker 1: against the Patch yesterday. It wasn't for his special teams air. 1410 01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:17,400 Speaker 1: They held braided at nine points, and I believe they 1411 01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:20,840 Speaker 1: outgained him on offense and time possession. Although Josh Allen 1412 01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:23,920 Speaker 1: looked horrid, would have loved to see if he had 1413 01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:26,160 Speaker 1: any more magic in the fourth quarter. You're right. I mean, 1414 01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:27,559 Speaker 1: he didn't get to play in the fourth quarter, and 1415 01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:29,559 Speaker 1: he had some magic there, and I'm a I'm rooting 1416 01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:32,960 Speaker 1: for Josh Allen, but his accuracy was atrocious. I still 1417 01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:34,880 Speaker 1: feel really good about the Bills team. They just need 1418 01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:36,880 Speaker 1: to continue to be patient and let Alan keep growing 1419 01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:40,280 Speaker 1: in the position. I'm telling you, they have to feel 1420 01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 1: very very good about themselves. I'd have to pull up 1421 01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 1: the bill schedule. But they've played the Jets, They've played 1422 01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:49,800 Speaker 1: the Pats, they played the Bangals, So I don't think 1423 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:52,080 Speaker 1: if memory serves me correct, I'm just doing this off 1424 01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:53,519 Speaker 1: top of my head. I don't think they played the 1425 01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:55,759 Speaker 1: Dolphins yet. So they still got a game against the Jets. 1426 01:09:55,920 --> 01:09:59,080 Speaker 1: They got two games against the Dolphins. They're gonna compete 1427 01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:00,759 Speaker 1: to win nine or ten game games. Like the Bills 1428 01:10:00,800 --> 01:10:03,120 Speaker 1: are in the playoff mix. That much is clear. Their 1429 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:05,920 Speaker 1: defense is elite and they can run the ball. And 1430 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:09,240 Speaker 1: if Josh Allen isn't playing the Patriots defense, which probably 1431 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,360 Speaker 1: beside the Bears, is the best defense in the league, 1432 01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:13,120 Speaker 1: you can give me all the statue you want. I'm 1433 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:16,120 Speaker 1: just saying fantasy points both those two the events crushed it. 1434 01:10:16,479 --> 01:10:19,880 Speaker 1: Patriots defense fantasy wise is dominated. But I think we'd 1435 01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:22,760 Speaker 1: all acknowledge that the Bears and the Patriot defense, the 1436 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:26,200 Speaker 1: Bears have a little more more impact players. The Patriots 1437 01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:28,360 Speaker 1: just placed so well as a unit. It's like, how 1438 01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:30,280 Speaker 1: are they doing this? But they do it as a group. 1439 01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:37,439 Speaker 1: I I think that, you know, I think the Bills 1440 01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:40,240 Speaker 1: can win. I think, worst case scenario, win nine games 1441 01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:43,639 Speaker 1: if Josh Allen can play better against better teams beside 1442 01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:46,080 Speaker 1: the Patriots and just win a couple of games like 1443 01:10:46,160 --> 01:10:49,639 Speaker 1: he can't turn the ball over. You can't play playoff 1444 01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:52,960 Speaker 1: level teams in these low scoring affairs which the Bills 1445 01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:55,160 Speaker 1: are gonna plan. The Bills aren't gonna play in these 1446 01:10:55,240 --> 01:10:59,439 Speaker 1: can see Chiefs, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, l A, Rams thirty 1447 01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:02,479 Speaker 1: five plus shootouts where you know, if their defenses gets 1448 01:11:02,479 --> 01:11:04,679 Speaker 1: a couple stops, they're gonna win forty to twenty four. 1449 01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:07,519 Speaker 1: They are gonna playing any of those games. They're They're 1450 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:10,639 Speaker 1: gonna play much more like the Bears, but the Bears 1451 01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:13,720 Speaker 1: have some more offensive weapons. But when the Bears get 1452 01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:16,200 Speaker 1: screwed is when Mitch turns it over. If he does 1453 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:19,000 Speaker 1: not turn it over, they are tough to beat. If 1454 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 1: the Bills do not turn it over, they are tough 1455 01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:24,680 Speaker 1: to beat. But you can't have a quarterback turning the 1456 01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:29,960 Speaker 1: football over. You just can't. Player empowerment is a form 1457 01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:34,880 Speaker 1: of capitalism. Still disagree with it? Question Mark, Yeah, I mean, 1458 01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:38,360 Speaker 1: I don't mind if if players get paid in college 1459 01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:42,679 Speaker 1: their likeness, But I also think Gavin Newsom and Lebron 1460 01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 1: James making a big deal about this. Like I live 1461 01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:47,959 Speaker 1: in the state of California. We have a housing crisis, 1462 01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 1: we have a homeless epidemic, We lead the country in poverty. Like, 1463 01:11:52,360 --> 01:11:55,639 Speaker 1: these are real issues. There is a small, small, small 1464 01:11:55,680 --> 01:11:59,800 Speaker 1: percentage of Division one college athletes relative to the population 1465 01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:02,120 Speaker 1: in state of California. I've been to usc ben to 1466 01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:06,000 Speaker 1: cow Been. Players are living pretty good. We also have 1467 01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:10,880 Speaker 1: information from the FBI. In basketball, specifically, they get paid 1468 01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:13,719 Speaker 1: a premium as in six figures the top basketball players, 1469 01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:17,080 Speaker 1: and for the most part, the state of California is 1470 01:12:17,120 --> 01:12:21,000 Speaker 1: a pretty pro heavy state. Beside USC football, maybe U 1471 01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:23,639 Speaker 1: C l A basketball. I know at least the two 1472 01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 1: Stanford and calip here. I mean nothing, No one talks 1473 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:29,400 Speaker 1: about him. It's not a big deal at all. So yeah, 1474 01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:30,760 Speaker 1: I don't you want to make your money after you 1475 01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:33,519 Speaker 1: like this? I don't care, but that for the governor 1476 01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:36,839 Speaker 1: to get involved in it when we have major, major issues, 1477 01:12:37,080 --> 01:12:41,800 Speaker 1: like people cannot afford to live, like we have a 1478 01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:45,840 Speaker 1: legitimate homeless crisis in l A and the Greater Bay 1479 01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 1: Area like they're everywhere. It's it's sad to see people 1480 01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,599 Speaker 1: have nowhere to live, and yet we have people getting 1481 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 1: richer and richer and richer, and Lebron James who's been 1482 01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:57,519 Speaker 1: in California for ten minutes, trying to get on his 1483 01:12:57,640 --> 01:13:01,080 Speaker 1: high horse talking about something like he also is like 1484 01:13:01,160 --> 01:13:03,719 Speaker 1: taking credit for this movement. People been talking about players 1485 01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:06,320 Speaker 1: getting paid forever. Also, players have been getting paid forever. 1486 01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:08,519 Speaker 1: It's called under the table. I know this. If someone's 1487 01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:10,639 Speaker 1: offering you a hunter grand under the table, and someone's 1488 01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:13,360 Speaker 1: offering you a hundred fifty over the table. I pay taxes. 1489 01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:16,360 Speaker 1: I just got a property tax bill almost threw up 1490 01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 1: in my mouth because I've always paid it through an 1491 01:13:18,439 --> 01:13:20,920 Speaker 1: escrow account through my mortgage. I finally canceled that my 1492 01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:22,920 Speaker 1: mortgage went down, but then I realized I gotta pay 1493 01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:26,639 Speaker 1: the property tax. It's pretty big. Uh So, like Lebron, 1494 01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:28,880 Speaker 1: we got other issues in the statement, man, Like, I 1495 01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:31,200 Speaker 1: get it. You think all these basketball players like a cow. 1496 01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:33,320 Speaker 1: The Cow basketball team I think won like five games. 1497 01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:37,080 Speaker 1: Stanford hasn't made the tournament in years. These guys are like, yeah, 1498 01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:39,880 Speaker 1: good luck, baby, become an Instagram influencer. I guess this 1499 01:13:39,920 --> 01:13:42,880 Speaker 1: is this is an Alabama football or Duke basketball where 1500 01:13:42,880 --> 01:13:45,040 Speaker 1: and we know in college basketball these players get paid 1501 01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:47,439 Speaker 1: under the table, a lot of money, hundreds of thousands 1502 01:13:47,439 --> 01:13:51,040 Speaker 1: of dollars, which I'm I'm four, I'm fine with. Doesn't 1503 01:13:51,080 --> 01:13:53,560 Speaker 1: bother me. I'm not the one. I'm not pounding the 1504 01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:56,280 Speaker 1: table here. They shouldn't get paid, I don't care, but 1505 01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:58,720 Speaker 1: they already do get paid. Can we acknowledge that under 1506 01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:02,280 Speaker 1: the table, like we have factual evidence the FBI acknowledge 1507 01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:04,920 Speaker 1: that people have gone to jail, which is stupid. But 1508 01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:07,479 Speaker 1: like the players have been getting paid forever, long before 1509 01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:09,840 Speaker 1: I was born. They'll be paid long after I'm dead, 1510 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:14,800 Speaker 1: legally and illegally. Question. But I just don't care about 1511 01:14:14,800 --> 01:14:17,439 Speaker 1: the n C double A rules. I don't. I laughed 1512 01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:18,720 Speaker 1: at the n C double A. I hate the n 1513 01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:22,000 Speaker 1: C double A. I also think overreacting. Also, this law 1514 01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 1: in California doesn't go into effect till two thousand twenty three. 1515 01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:29,800 Speaker 1: California's to think that they'll figure this thing out is laughable. 1516 01:14:30,040 --> 01:14:32,799 Speaker 1: We figured nothing out beside how to make money in business. 1517 01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:37,400 Speaker 1: That's what we're good at around here, and collecting our taxes. Question. 1518 01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 1: People talk about John always failures at the quarterback position. 1519 01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:41,559 Speaker 1: When I look at the team overall, I don't really 1520 01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:43,800 Speaker 1: see much talent except for two or three positions. If 1521 01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:46,040 Speaker 1: Fangio can't get this defensive dominant, I feel like it 1522 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:48,879 Speaker 1: probably doesn't have much talent overall outside of maybe three players. 1523 01:14:49,880 --> 01:14:52,719 Speaker 1: Is it just the quarterback position or actually many positions 1524 01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:55,560 Speaker 1: that Elway has drafted poorly? Well. They had a devastating 1525 01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:58,439 Speaker 1: loss today in Bradley Chub I mean losing him to 1526 01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:02,240 Speaker 1: a torn a c l is. If I was a 1527 01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:05,960 Speaker 1: Bronco fan, I'd cry now, you'd cry anyway, because you're 1528 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:09,000 Speaker 1: owing four, but that's probably your second best player beside 1529 01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 1: Bond Miller. I would cry. You could argue it might 1530 01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:12,880 Speaker 1: be your best player. And now the Bonds a little older. 1531 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 1: That sucks. The Broncos aren't shambles. They're owing four and 1532 01:15:17,800 --> 01:15:20,600 Speaker 1: they're not just like an owen four like the Redskins 1533 01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:22,400 Speaker 1: or the Dolphins or you like, they just sucked. I 1534 01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:24,400 Speaker 1: mean they've been in now three of the four games. 1535 01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:26,040 Speaker 1: It's like, oh, they're right in the hell. They should 1536 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:28,400 Speaker 1: have beat the Bears game, they were up in the 1537 01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:31,960 Speaker 1: Jaguars game, and they just can't win. Man, they just 1538 01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:36,200 Speaker 1: cannot win. And I don't know if it's all Flacco, 1539 01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:38,719 Speaker 1: even though Flacco through a terrible pick in that Jack's 1540 01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:40,439 Speaker 1: game at the end of the first half with led 1541 01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:43,160 Speaker 1: to some easy points. Like you said, the defense, if 1542 01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:46,719 Speaker 1: Fangio can't get the defense playing, I mean, Leonard Fournette 1543 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:51,120 Speaker 1: had two yards on the ground, Leonard Fournette. I like 1544 01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:53,719 Speaker 1: Leonard Fournett, and I'm more higher on Leard Leonard Fournette 1545 01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:56,920 Speaker 1: than most people, but two yards. This is the NFL. 1546 01:15:57,560 --> 01:15:59,439 Speaker 1: When you're at home and you're the Denver Broncos, you 1547 01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 1: should never have a two yard rusher. That's that's inexcusable. Yeah, 1548 01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:08,439 Speaker 1: they Broncos aren't shambles. Is John Elway safe? And just 1549 01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:12,799 Speaker 1: some internet rumors like the reddit's and just the internet streets, 1550 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:15,479 Speaker 1: the Twitter streets. It feels like he's kind of on 1551 01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:18,400 Speaker 1: shake your ground with every day that passes. What if 1552 01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:20,719 Speaker 1: they win two or three games? Are they gonna draft quarterback? 1553 01:16:21,040 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 1: Did d you lock the guy? I don't know, I 1554 01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:26,519 Speaker 1: will tell appreciate everyone listening three podcast here with your friends, 1555 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:27,880 Speaker 1: Audiose my people
