Speaker 1: like mobile tire installation, tire iraq dot Com, Lloway tire

36
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: buying should be. It's been a roller coaster kind of

37
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: a day and we're not We're not gonna bear the lead,

38
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: my man, We're not. We will go to Houston, a

39
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: city that they embraced cheaters. The baseball team not so much.

40
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: But this isn't this is football. We're all grown ups here, right.

41
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: We can move on from past battle royales that we've

42
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: had and we can break it down, and we will

43
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: break it down here. And our lead is from deep

44
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: in the heart of Texas. The curtain went up on

45
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: Week twelve of the NFL season, Josh Allen and the

46
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: caravan of Bill's Mafia rolling in to h Town for

47
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: a matchup against the NFL's top ranked defense. That was

48
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: the billing on this particular game. You had Al Michaels,

49
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: the seasoned veteran Al Michaels, and Herbie Kirk Herbstreet holding

50
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: machete Mike's as they try to navigate their way through

51
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: the Amazon. And I don't know if you're watching this

52
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: or not, maybe not us. That's stuff going on. We're

53
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: a week away from Thanksgiving. Well, don't worry. We watched

54
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: so you would not have to watch. It's our public service,

55
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: our good MITSVA of the day. So Will Anderson and

56
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: friends getting it done, getting her done. As the Houston's

57
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: Houston defense, very dominant defense, living up to the hype.

58
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: There they sacked Josh Allen, not once, not twice, not

59
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: three times, not four, not five, not six, not seven,

60
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: eight times. Josh Allen spent a lot of time on

61
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: his back there and number nine in year program, but

62
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: number one in your heart. Kalen Bullock forced not one,

63
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: not two, but three turnovers with an interception there a

64
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: game ceiling interception on a desperate heave by Josh Allen,

65
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 1: and that allowed the Texans to take a knee and

66
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 1: end the game. So Houston wins it twenty three to

67
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:33,479
Speaker 1: nineteen over the Bills on a Thursday night special as

68
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: Buffalo drops to seven and four with the loss Davis

69
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: Mills and only one hundred and fifty three yards passing

70
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: but a couple of touchdown passes in the first half,

71
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: and the Texans are over five hundred at six and five,

72
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: third straight win with their backup quarterback as CJ. Stroud

73
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: not there, not playing in the backup getting it done.

74
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: Houston above five hundred for the first time all season.

75
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: And the better story, though, is in the losing locker room.

76
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: My goodness, Buffalo, what have you done? What happened? Let's

77
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: start out with Sean McDermott, the head coach of the Bills.

78
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: Not likely passed this year the way things are looking

79
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: at this particular moment, but he is for now the

80
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 1: head coach of the team in Buffalo. Here is McDermott.

81
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 1: Here the question and the answer as it relates to

82
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: the way the game was played. Let's go to the

83
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 1: audio tape. Take a list. I know you pride yourself

84
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 1: on getting more physical team. Did they beat it to

85
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: that tonight? Were they the more physical team?

86
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 3: Well?

87
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: When they hit their quarterback twelve times?

88
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 4: You know, I don't like that.

89
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 1: I don't like that stat at all. And it's not

90
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: a healthy way to play or a healthy way to

91
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: keep our quarterback healthy through the remainder of the season.

92
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 4: So it's just not a good formula right there.

93
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: Okay, thank you very much. I think I needed you

94
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: to tell me. We could not have figured that out

95
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 1: on my own. Needed you to tell me that. Thank

96
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: you very much, smart and meat head football coach. All Right,

97
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: So the Bills here, let's just let's get right to it.

98
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: The Bills are being called the F word. Well, not

99
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: that effort. They're being called frauds, frauds with a capital

100
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: F after they lost to the Texans. There, So that

101
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: is a good jumping off point. Let's start with that.

102
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: We'll work our way through. We've got plenty of time

103
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 1: here to discuss the question. Josh Allen, the reigning MVP

104
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: of the NFL, and his team, the Buffalo Bill is

105
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: being called fraudulent. Are we in or are we out

106
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: on that statement about the Buffalo Bill? So on this one,

107
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: I've got Playdough Penn and Teller and David Letterman and

108
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: we will put all of these things together and we

109
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: will do the hokey pokey and we'll shake it all about.

110
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,799
Speaker 1: So ay, I'm in on this. I'm in on this

111
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: like it's animal style fries at in and out. Okay,

112
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: we have a talk show to dude right now at

113
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: this hour late at night, and we have to judge

114
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: things based on real time. So based on real time,

115
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: they began week twelve, they being the Buffalo Bills began

116
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: week twelve floppity flopping like they they showed up to

117
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: an exam with no pencil, but you had to have

118
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: a pencil. You had to have a pencil. They didn't

119
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: bring a pencil. But we don't need a pencil. It's

120
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. But no, you had to have a pencil.

121
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: They didn't bring a pencil. Bat you out by them,

122
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: and you are what your record says you are. So

123
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: are they good? Okay, they're gonna winning record? Are they

124
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: are they great? No? No, they're not great. This was

125
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: supposed to be greatness. This was supposed to be it.

126
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: You're changing stadiums at the end of the year. Here

127
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: this is me be your final run in the old venue,

128
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: and you're getting to that new shiny stadium across the street.

129
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: Go in there with a Super Bowl trophy. And instead,

130
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: if you look at the Bills from thirty thousand feet

131
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: up in the sky, the Buffalo Bills are all over

132
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: the map. It's like they're spinning a globe. You know,

133
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: you gotta spin the globe, and it kind of pointing

134
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: blindfolded is what they're doing. Even Stevie Meatballs would do

135
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: a better job than that. Now, one week they can

136
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: come out there and take care of Cans City. The

137
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: next week or a couple of weeks later, they're losing

138
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: to Davis Mills, the backup quarterback for the Texans, the

139
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: guy with the kind of a giraffe like look to

140
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: his appearance there. And yet Davis Mills did a better

141
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: job than Josh Allen. Let that marinate in your little

142
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: head for a second. How does that sound? May God,

143
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: the Bills in general got treated like it was a

144
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: kindergarten play dough. I have play doll back in the day.

145
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: You roll it, you smash it, put it back in

146
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: the container. Mix all the colors together. The text exposed

147
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 1: them in many ways. The Bills you look at the

148
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: point to if you didn't see the game as well

149
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: at nineteen points. Okay, they won the yardage total. One

150
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: of those touchdowns was on a special teams play. The

151
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: offense flatlined only two trips to the red zone for

152
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Josh Allen's numbers were artificially inflated there.

153
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: It was that late trick oration, the gimmick play where

154
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: they had forty four yards. It was fourth and twenty

155
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: seven and the Bills collected forty four yards on a

156
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: play late in the fourth quarter, only to then self

157
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: destruct after that. But this team is bipolar. The Bills

158
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: are bipolar. They beat the Bucks, the Chiefs, and the Ravens,

159
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: which is great. The Ravens the first game of the year,

160
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 1: that wild comeback, the Chiefs, who are a middling team

161
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: this year. And then the Buccaneers they beat last week,

162
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: a wounded roster they lost to at the time what

163
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: we assumed was a weak Patriots team, and the foul

164
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 1: who stink, and the Houston Texans now the latest team

165
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 1: with their backup quarterback to win. So there's no compass,

166
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: there's no GPS penalty. It's just a lot of vibes,

167
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,599
Speaker 1: a lot of vibes with the Buffalo Bills and the team.

168
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 1: I've determined Doctor Maller has determined they're suffering from holatosis.

169
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,719
Speaker 1: They need a gallon of mouthwash and a therapist at

170
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 1: this point. Now Houston with the number one defensive and

171
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: so this is a placement test. How do you match

172
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: up against the top defense in the NFL for your

173
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:38,719
Speaker 1: Buffalo And the answer is, don't ask. You don't want

174
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: to know the answer. Right, it was a trip up

175
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: in the sky on the vomit comet, is what it was.

176
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: They rode the vomit comet. Right now, the Buffalo Bills

177
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 1: are not on the VIP list. They were supposed to

178
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 1: be on the VIP list. They're not. No bottle service

179
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 1: for Buffalo. You're not getting the bottle service. And if

180
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: you can't trust them in big spots, how can you

181
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: trust them at all? And that's what you have to

182
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: ask yourself and answer yourself. You like the Bills and Derek,

183
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 1: the Bill's monster, and these guys. I'm sure none of

184
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: these guys will call up, because what happens when you

185
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: do a show like this. If your team wins, everyone's

186
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 1: a front runner. You want to smell yourself and navel gaze.

187
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 1: And then when you lose, y'all, I'm not listening. When

188
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: my team loses, you might say something me. Okay, I

189
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: know how it works. I've been around the block a

190
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: couple of times. Now Page two to the quarterback room, specifically, specifically,

191
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 1: and let's start with Josh Allen, who had a want

192
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: to forget about it kind of day. Here's Josh Allen,

193
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 1: who took the most sacks he's ever taken in his career,

194
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: with sack eight times. Eight times, you'll hear the question

195
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: and the answer from the reigning most valuable player in

196
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: the NFL. Take a listen. Can you even put into

197
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: words how it did to get through a game like

198
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: that most sacks of your career? Yeah, it's not fun.

199
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 5: I ran into a couple myself. I gotta be better

200
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 5: throwing the ball away and living to see another down

201
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 5: and uh letting letting us play some situational football and

202
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,719
Speaker 5: penning them deep, and too many times I was going

203
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 5: backwards and I gotta be better on that.

204
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 1: All right. So to the point here, and what he

205
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: said was accurate. Bill's mafia will not acknowledge that. But

206
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: the question is how much of this suck bag performance

207
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: goes on the shoulders of Bill's quarterback Josh Allen. So

208
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: it's it's not two, it's not four, it's not six,

209
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 1: it's eight. Who do we appreciate eight sacks? Eight sacks?

210
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: That's football malpractice. And before we start getting the messages

211
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: coming in and say, well it's over too long, Oh

212
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: my e it's the Fed guys. Blame the Fed people,

213
00:12:55,240 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 1: the idiots. Yes, I'm sorry, No, no, no, Josh Allen

214
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: was out there playing hero ball, is what he was doing.

215
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 1: I call that hero ball. It's like the Penn and

216
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: Teller ducking spinning, turning every single play, trying to extend

217
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 1: the play. It was like a circus act under the

218
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: big top. Fun for all ages, as long as you're

219
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: a Houston Texans fan. Fun for all ages. There abra cadabra.

220
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: You got sacked eight times. That is not bad luck.

221
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: That is bad decision making. And what do we always say?

222
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 1: A sack is worse than an incompletion most of the time,

223
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 1: a drive that includes a sack, you end up not

224
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,439
Speaker 1: scoring on that drive. You throw it away, stud, that's

225
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: what you do. You don't take a loss, you don't

226
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 1: invite disaster for Josh Allen. You don't play backyard football,

227
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: and you're the two hundred and fifty eight million dollar

228
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback. Now, the Malard Mass says, to answer the

229
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 1: question how much of these suck bag performance is on

230
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: the shoulders of Josh Allen, Malar Mass is eighty percent.

231
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: Eighty percent of this is on Josh Allen for the

232
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: offensive problems there, and I'm being generous. The last three

233
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 1: games Allen had no touchdowns in this game, but the

234
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 1: last three games he's got five touchdowns, five interceptions, losses

235
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: to Miami and Houston's backup quarterback, and a win in

236
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: a second half onslought against the Buccaneers. So now he's

237
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: got the eight sacks in one game, many of them,

238
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: not all, not all. Let me repeat that, not all,

239
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: but many of them self inflicted. As he said, he

240
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: ran into a couple of sacks, and I know what

241
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 1: we're gonna get, right. This was not MVP level play.

242
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 1: This was reckless, caroless freelancing by Josh Allen. And that's

243
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: the kind of play that the Bills will never win anything.

244
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: They're screwed. And if he continues to play like that,

245
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: you'll say, well, this was it. They missed their opportunity,

246
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: and this is who Josh Allen is. Eventually, you gotta

247
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: blame the Hollywood starlet, right, you blame the woman. It's

248
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: got to be a woman's fault. But if you look

249
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: at this, the excuse I've already gotten when I get

250
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: two emails already from people listening to Buffalo or claim,

251
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're in Buffalo or not, they're

252
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: Bills fans. One is it's the offensive line. It's the

253
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: offensive line. It's the receivers. They don't have enough good receivers.

254
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: It's the play calling, it's the coaching. Those are the

255
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: big three. That's the apologist checklist. I'm guessing if Andy

256
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: the comic book guy, Bill's mafia guy, Andy the comic

257
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: book Guy is listening, he'll call in with that. He'll

258
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: call in with the smiles. Oh, we love Josh Allen.

259
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: I've got a shrine to Josh Allen. Now stop. This

260
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: is on the quarterback on the quarterback. These are self

261
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: inflicted wounds. Tell me I'm wrong, Tell me I'm wrong.

262
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: All right, last word, we go to the winning locker room,

263
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: which is not the better story, but we go to

264
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: the winning locker room anyway, on the Texans side, with

265
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: Will Anderson leading the way. This is a championship level

266
00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: defense in Houston. CEJ. Stroud is supposed to return from

267
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: the concussion protocol in the Texans next game. Not everyone

268
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: is on board with that. At this point, I heard

269
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: Herbstreet licking the toes of c J. Stroud, a franchise quarterback,

270
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: and all that. Okay, yeah, okay. Question, should the Houston

271
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: Texans do the unthinkable the unimaginable? Should the Houston Texans

272
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 1: continue to play backup quarterback Davis Mills over c J. Stroutt.

273
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: So the answer is, it's not complicated. You don't need

274
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: to fix this. It's not broken right now for the Texans.

275
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: And I look at this like it's a case of

276
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: this old late night talk shows guy named David Letterman

277
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: is stupid human tricks. Davis Mills has turned in to

278
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: the human seatbelt. He's not flashy, definitely not flashy, right,

279
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: not flashy yet gives you a little comfort of mind

280
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: if you're the Texans and keeps you relatively safe. Three starts,

281
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 1: three wins, no drama. He's only had one interception in

282
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: the three games. No hero ball, and the lesson is

283
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: rather obvious. You just be background. No is be elevator music.

284
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 1: If you're the Texans quarterback, stay out of the way.

285
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 1: Let the adults in the room which are on defense,

286
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: let them do their thing right. Just stay, stay out

287
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: of the way and let the Texans super Bowl worthy

288
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 1: defense eat. And he's like Tamo's Mills is like generic

289
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: brand cereal at the grocery store. Nobody gets excited when

290
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: they get a box of generic brand cereals. I don't

291
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 1: want store brand cereal. It's a rip off. Why do

292
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: I want that doesn't look good? The colors aren't the

293
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,160
Speaker 1: same on the cereal. The taste is a little off.

294
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 1: It doesn't taste great. But somehow it gets the job done,

295
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 1: and more importantly, it saves you a couple bucks. And

296
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,679
Speaker 1: all that. I'm not here and I'm not gonna sit

297
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: here behind the microphone and say O, CJ. Stroud is bad. However,

298
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 1: he is going the wrong direction. It's trending the wrong way,

299
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 1: it's not going the right direction for CJ. Stroud. Keep

300
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: in mind the Houston offensive line. The analytics nerds and

301
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: many self anointed geniuses among the fan base reached out

302
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 1: and said, wow, listen, the offensive line's not CJ. Stroud's fault.

303
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: The offensive line is hot garbage, and you just don't understand.

304
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: You just don't get it because you're doing the Overnight show.

305
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: You just can't understand. It's not CJ. Stroud's fault. No, no, no, no, no, no,

306
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 1: it's not his fault. Okay, So that was like seven

307
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: weeks ago, that was the argument. Something funny happened in

308
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: the last few weeks and now suddenly suddenly the Texans

309
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 1: offensive line look competent. However, that's only when Davis Mills

310
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: is in there making quick decisions with the football training

311
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 1: it like a hot potato and not playing Spider Man,

312
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 1: Spider Man, Spider Man back then. No, it's almost like

313
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: this is gonna blow your mind. It's almost like c J.

314
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 1: Stroud was part of the problem. Oh, you can't say that.

315
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: Why would you say that? What's wrong? Would you to

316
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: ban him? Block him? He said? CEJ. Stroud's part of

317
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: the problem. Up booooo what p damn Do I know

318
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: that's gonna trigger some fanboys? Cue the violin for Stroud's

319
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: very delicate ego, and I realize the Texans are going

320
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: to have to tiptoe through the tulips on this one.

321
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: I get it. I understand this guy hyped as the

322
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: franchise guy build as the cherry red Ferrari. However, right now,

323
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: if you're Demko Ryans, you take the dented, rusted out

324
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 1: jeep Wrangler with one hundred and seventy mile one hundred

325
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:59,120
Speaker 1: seventy thousand miles on it. I just just it's a rustbucket.

326
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: You take that jeep Wrangling with one hundred and seventy

327
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 1: thousand miles on it, and that's the car you need.

328
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 1: It'll get you where you want to go. It's not

329
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: I go get there fast. And you know there's a

330
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: few issues here and there, but we're not in college anymore.

331
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: You're not developing anyone here. And until Davis Mills the

332
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: way I would do this, until Davis Mills has an

333
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 1: absolute hiccup game where he just completely stinks and throws

334
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: an ugly pick and fumbles and all that stuff, you

335
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 1: keep the train rolling, you keep the steam engine going, Jude, Jude,

336
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 1: just like that, all right? And because in Houston right now,

337
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: efficiency is sexy and wins. You play to win the game.

338
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: As long as the quarterback Davis Mills does not turn

339
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: the ball over, play, make reckless plays, take sacks, and

340
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 1: just allow the defense to do it. You'll be fine.

341
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: It's not that difficult. It's not. Don't make it harder

342
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: than it has to be.

348
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 3: never have enough time to get to everything we want

00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 3: to get to.

350
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,160

Speaker 6: our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,

353
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 6: because this guy is over promising things we never have

354
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 6: time for.

355
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:29,840

356
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 3: Well, you know what it's called over promise. You should

357
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 3: be good at it because you've been over promising women

358
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 3: for years.

359
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,719
Speaker 6: Well, it's a Cavino and Rich after show, and we

362
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 6: life and relationships. And if Rich and I are arguing

363
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 6: about something or we didn't have enough time, it will

364
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 6: continue on our after show called over Promised. Well, if

365
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 6: you don't get enough Covino and Rich, make sure you

00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 6: It's gonna be the best after show podcast.

369
00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:58,160

374
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: Not from the Thursday night game, we can circle back

375
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: to that as the Texans get her done. The Houston

376
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 1: Texans into the wind column. There. They were a sizeable

377
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 1: home underdogs in that game, and they win that game

378
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 1: on defence eight sacks of Josh Allen. But the lead

379
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: from the Keystone state of Pennsylvania, we go where the

380
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 1: news of the day takes us and the soap opera

381
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: continues to be on the Ben Franklin Bridge there in Philly,

382
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: the champs of chaos, days of our lives. I gotta

383
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: tell you, as a talk shows I did not expect

384
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: this level of continued content from the Philadelphia football team.

385
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: So I say, bravo, tremendous job by the Eagles there,

386
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 1: going above and beyond the call of duty. Not been

387
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: following the dailies as they called them in the television world,

388
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: perhaps not, So let me give you the thumbnail recap.

389
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 1: We'll give you the thumbnail recap on this. So the

390
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: Eagles wide receiver A. J. Brown, he was asked about

391
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: speculation that he is not the same player that he

392
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: once was, and AJ Brown, well, he answered the question

393
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: and that led to a story. Let's go to the

394
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: audio tape. Here's AJ Brown take a listen. Would you

395
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,439
Speaker 1: say there's speculation out there that you are not the

396
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: same player he once man, what would you say to

397
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 1: those people?

398
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 7: Oh?

399
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 1: In face face, he said, if you couldn't make that

400
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: out of some amami And he said, I guess the

401
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: kwan ain't the same player either, he said at his

402
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: locker there in the last media availability. That is a

403
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: good jumping off point. So let us discuss the question

404
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: what do you make of malcontent? Eagle wide receiver AJ

405
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 1: Brown snapping had a question on his performance or lack thereof,

406
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: that chatter that he's not the same player he once

407
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: was his level of play. So my observations on this,

408
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: I have Russell Crowe, Morse code, and Chuck e cheese,

409
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together and

410
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 1: we are going to make a steak sandwich. A cheese

411
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: steak sandwich is what we're gonna make. So number one

412
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 1: number number number, number, number.

413
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: Number line.

414
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: The champs of chaos. I'm gonna use that line that

415
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: they're the champs of gests. Filming another episode of Days

416
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:57,360
Speaker 1: of Our Lives, the Philadelphia Special A J. Brown. Now

417
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: AJ Brown is the director, right nodding your head, Yes,

418
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 1: he's the director. He's the lead actor, and he's the

419
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: head of the wardrobe department as well. He's also good

420
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 1: at with props. He's like carrot top with props. He'll

421
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: bring a book, read a book on the bench, do

422
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. So these are hand crafted answers,

423
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 1: made to order, made to it. The man has become

424
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: an artisan of passive aggressive outbursts. And I am here

425
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: for it. I am I have a daily talk show

426
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: to do. I'm here for it. A master thespian AJ Brown.

427
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 1: Every time he speaks, I hear Russell Crowe in the Gladiator.

428
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: Are you not entertained? That's what I hear. The Eagles

429
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 1: could have hit control alt delete. They could have done

430
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: control alt delete on AJ Brown. The trade deadline was

431
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: right around Halloween, and they had teams that made them

432
00:25:55,320 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 1: sizeable offers to acquire AJ Brown, and they said nope, nope,

433
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: that's what they said. They said it. They kept him.

434
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 1: They said, his talent is so great. How great is it?

435
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: It's so great. We want to keep the player that

436
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 1: he's worth the migraine. And now here we are not

437
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: that far removed from the trade deadline. We're coming up

438
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving this coming week, and now all of a sudden,

439
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 1: it's like they need to go down to the Costco

440
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: and get pharmacy grade ibuprofe and a bucket and just

441
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 1: have those on standby. On and off the field. It's

442
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: not just an off the field issue. It is an

443
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: on the field issue which is spilled into the off

444
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 1: the field stuff. So AJ Brown is on pace for

445
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: eight hundred and twelve yards this year in Philadelphia. He's

446
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 1: on pace right, So if he does that, that would

447
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:52,360
Speaker 1: be the lowest performance of his career, the worst season

448
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: of AJ Brown's career, eight hundred and twelve yards. How

449
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 1: much worse is this year than last year? Well, if

450
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: everything stays the same and nothing ever stays the same.

451
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 1: But we have a show to do right now, and

452
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 1: so if the numbers stay the same, that means that

453
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 1: AJ Brown's production will have gone down by almost twenty

454
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 1: five percent. Almost twenty five percent, twenty four point seven percent.

455
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: That's a tumble, a bumble and a fumble is what

456
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: that is. And his comeback is well, I guess Sakwan

457
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: Barkley he ain't the same player either, and he's not wrong.

458
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 1: Here's the other thing you do the side by side.

459
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: I mentioned AJ Brown's performance going down about twenty five percent,

460
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: but if you look at Barkley, he is off year

461
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:43,399
Speaker 1: to year by almost forty five percent. Had the career

462
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: year last year, career year, the two thousand yard season.

463
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 1: This year his numbers are down by almost forty five percent,

464
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 1: forty three point eight percent decline year to year. So

465
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: everybody is underperforming on offense. Everybody is, and this is

466
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 1: classic deflection by AJ Brown. It's finger pointing, not that

467
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: he's wrong, not that he's wrong. And don't think this

468
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 1: isn't secretly actually aimed at Jalen Hurts, because when wide

469
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 1: receivers start giving statistical dissertations like AJ Brown, they're really

470
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,199
Speaker 1: saying it ain't me, it's the bleep. But he bleep

471
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: bleep bleep bleep quarterback, that's who. Blame him. He's a man,

472
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,959
Speaker 1: he can take it. Blame him. So Jalen Hurts out

473
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: there catching strays. This is the day after Jalen Hurts

474
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: came out and said, oh I gotta be better and

475
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: all that stuff. And just like that, another storm front

476
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: moves across the famous men Franklin Bridge. There the Delaware River,

477
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 1: the daily soap opera rolls on and on and on,

478
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: and the Philadelphia chaos properly served and it's just great.

479
00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 1: And the Eagles play the Cowboys this weekend in Dallas.

480
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: Lane Johnson not playing actually in Arlington, but Lane Johnson's

481
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: not playing in that game. And if you look at

482
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 1: the numbers with Lane Johnson and without Lane Johnson, the

483
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 1: Eagles have, you say, it's just an offensive lineman who

484
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: gives about offensive lineman. The Eagles apparently care about offensive lineman.

485
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: His performance has been key to what they have done. Now, meanwhile,

486
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: we go to Minnesota. Another story that's been bubbling up

487
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: this year. We had an NFL coach recently offer a withering,

488
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: withering assessment, good word, withering assessment of Viking quarterback J. J. McCarthy,

489
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: the Michigan man. Now, the coach did not give his name.

490
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: He sensed palpable levels of exasperation from the Minnesota pass catchers.

491
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: All of this because McCarthy was unable to do his job,

492
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 1: was not able to get them the ball. The neuroscientist J. J. McCarthy,

493
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 1: according to the coach behind a Paywalt the athletic said

494
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: the receivers are visually frustrated and they are open all

495
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: over the tape. I guess the guy's watching the All

496
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: twenty two. He talked about Jalen Naylor and Jordan Addison,

497
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson, TJ. Hockinson, all those guys getting open. And

498
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: the person that gave this comment said that that Viking

499
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 1: offense should be putting up numbers like the Cincinnati Bengals offense. However,

500
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 1: that's not happening, and all you hear the coach said,

501
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 1: the quote all you hear from Minnesota is about how

502
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: rosy and the great it is there. Everything's wonderful. Blah

503
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. A right, So that is a

504
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question vikings

505
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: wide receivers. According to this coach visually frustrated with quarterback

506
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: Jaye J. McCarthy, how believable is this? So we absolutely

507
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: buy this. On the Mallord scale of believability, the Malord

508
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 1: scale of believability, it goes one to five, one to five,

509
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: I am at a four. I'm at a four on

510
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: the mald scale of believability means I strongly believe bordering

511
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 1: on the gospel, bordering on the Gospel. So you do

512
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: not need que cards on this. You don't need que cards.

513
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: Just see what's going on. McCarthy, as we have talked

514
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: about in previous episodes of the show so far, has

515
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: been biblically bad bad, bad, bad, bad, bad bad bad,

516
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: so bad. He's literally choking on meat sauce at this point.

517
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: So Minnesota's playmakers are not just frustrated. The video is there.

518
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: The scale believability. There's clips they're not all AI that

519
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: show some of these receivers and the body language is

520
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 1: like they're being held hostage and they're blinking morse code,

521
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: trying to trying to facilitate some kind of change on

522
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: the sidelence. And he watched the film, watch the clips.

523
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,479
Speaker 1: Jordan Addison waving his arms like he's directing air traffic

524
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 1: at the Minneapolis Airport, justin Jefferson. Generational talent, He got

525
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: the bad and he's giving off the energy justin Jefferson

526
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: as he's running around there like he wishes he were

527
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: flipping Juicy Lucy's at Matt's Barr the birthplace of the

528
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 1: Juicy Lucy there in Minnesota, instead of running go roots

529
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: or routes and then never getting the ball, just doing

530
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 1: cardio out there running around. You got TJ. Hawkinson, the

531
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: man who's staring at the sky even when he's in

532
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: a dome, waiting for a meteor to come down and

533
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: put him out of his misery. This nameless coach. We

534
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: don't know who this is. He did use coach speak though,

535
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 1: what was that? The quarterback stinks and everyone knows it

536
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 1: except the public relations department. Now that should be the

537
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 1: Cincinnati office. That was the line that the guy used

538
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: three legitimate weapons, three big time weapons, explosive potential. Instead,

539
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: it's like they're running in snow shoes, is what they're

540
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 1: doing here. Good luck. The body language again says it all.

541
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: Receivers are not frustrated, to quote the late great Brian Wheeler.

542
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: They are agitated, alarmed, and acrimonious is what they are.

543
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 1: Minnesota can spin this all they want, talk about progress,

544
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: potential and patience, the three piece. The receivers, though, are

545
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 1: telling you the truth with the body language, the eye movement,

546
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 1: all that stuff, and right now they are ska re

547
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: ming is what they're doing. They are. It's not great,

548
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 1: all right? Final point, we go to the great Pacific Northwest,

549
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 1: where legends like JJ in Renton and the no strit

550
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: Deenas and Crying Craig and so many great fans of

551
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: the show have supported what we do there in Seattle

552
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 1: and done a great job. So I provide you some

553
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 1: witty Seahawk commentary, and that is about Sam Darnold, the

554
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold, who says that he now he

555
00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: understands after that clunker against the Rams, he understands that

556
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 1: he and his team have to be better at protecting

557
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:09,320
Speaker 1: the ball. Ball security and this after a four week stretch.

558
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:13,320
Speaker 1: The Seattle football team has turned the ball over twelve

559
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: times now last four games, twelve turnovers, and if my

560
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,399
Speaker 1: math is correct, the Seahawks lead the NFL. They are

561
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:28,919
Speaker 1: number one in in giveaways. They've had twenty giveaways this year,

562
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: twelve in the last four weeks, which begs the question

563
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: where are you at? Where are you at on Sam

564
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 1: Donald urging the Seahawks to protect the ball better? Where

565
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 1: are you at on that? So this is the Sam

566
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 1: Donald paradox is what it is where ball security goes

567
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: to die. It's like the Bermuda triangle. Donald telling his

568
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:57,800
Speaker 1: teammates to protect the football is akin to an arsonist

569
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 1: telling the FI department, lecturing them on how to do

570
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 1: their job. The Seahawks don't have a turnover issue. They don't.

571
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 1: They have a Sam Donald issue is what they have

572
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: Using Malormath, Seattle has twenty total turnovers. Donald, you want

573
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 1: to take a guess how many Donald is responsible for? Well,

574
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 1: you know he had four interceptions in the last game,

575
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 1: and how many turnovers do you think Donald is responsible for?

576
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 1: The answer, seventy percent of them. Seventy percent. Fourteen of

577
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: the twenty turnovers are at the hands of that wicked

578
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: bad Sam Donald. But he's going to be okay, everything's fine,

579
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 1: Everything's okay. Yeah, okay, Well there you go. Ten interceptions,

580
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 1: four fumbles, seventy percent of the problem. And when Sam

581
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 1: Donald says we've got to protect the football, I have

582
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: to be better. Okay, what does that mean. I mean,

583
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 1: I'm going to keep doing what I've always done. However,

584
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: I'm going to say the right things into this microphone.

585
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 1: So the quotes look really good on State Provdanews service,

586
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: the Seahawks dot Com. Nobody, no buddy, no buddy in

587
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks front office can complain, cannot do it.

588
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 1: It would be like the waiter at Chuck E Cheese

589
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 1: complaining there's too many damn kids here. There's too many

590
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,359
Speaker 1: kids in the arcade. All they watched the pizza. It's

591
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,359
Speaker 1: a big pan in the ass. No, will you work

592
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 1: at Chuck E Cheese. That's what happens. If you're signing

593
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold and he turns the ball over and kills

594
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 1: your season. You signed up for that. I didn't sign

595
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 1: up for that you signed up for that Sam Darnald

596
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: is telling Seattle to protect the ball better. It's kind

597
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 1: of like a burglar leaving sticky notes reminding people to

598
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:05,359
Speaker 1: lie their doors until further notice. Seattle's living in the

599
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:11,360
Speaker 1: haunted House of Sam Darld And every Sunday and sometimes

600
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 1: on Thursday, and occasionally on Monday, something goes bumpity bump

601
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:22,439
Speaker 1: in the night and boom and the pigskin ends up

602
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 1: in the other team's hands. Time and time and time again.

603
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben Mallor

604
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

605
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 1: Here we all smaller. How about that? To the third degree?

606
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 1: This is one big vent gets grilled coolly so Man.

607
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 7: The other day we talked about Matthew Stafford being the

608
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 7: favorite for MVP, but now it seems that the Rams

609
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 7: are also the betting favorite to win the Super Bowl.

610
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 4: Are you that confident, Ben.

611
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 1: No, it's wide open. It's the Rams have a very

612
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 1: good team. They have a good shot of getting through

613
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. But it's not like they're a lock.

614
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: There's three or four teams in the AFC and the

615
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 1: NFC that you can go with. The Rams If the

616
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: defense continues to play the way they're playing, there's no

617
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: reason they cannot reach the Super Bowl. Philadelphia is beatable

618
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 1: without They just beat Seattle. They got no chance with

619
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold Green Bay. There's no invincible team. You look

620
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: at the top teams in the NFC, there's no one's

621
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 1: like invincible.

622
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 7: Right next, Joe Flacco spoke with the media on Wednesday

623
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 7: and said that he would like a starting opportunity in

624
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:31,959
Speaker 7: twenty twenty six.

625
00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 4: Do you think someone will give it to him?

626
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:35,840
Speaker 1: Yes. What he needs to do is go down to

627
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 1: Best Buy and buy Madden Football twenty seven when it

628
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: comes out, and he will be able to play as

629
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 1: QB one on that game. I think he'll be able

630
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 1: to do very well. Now, of course he'll start. If

631
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 1: he wants to keep playing, he'll be picked up by

632
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 1: somebody coop as a backup, high end, backup and bad team.

633
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 1: He'll get a chance to start. He's not gonna be

634
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:56,440
Speaker 1: a QB one next.

635
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 7: With Nico Harrison gone, Mark Cuban is back in the

636
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 7: decision making mix with the MAVs. How long do you

637
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 7: think it'll take him to undo the damage.

638
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 1: Now, that is just a pr move he's not making

639
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 1: any decisions. He just has a seat at the table,

640
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: but he's not actually deciding. He doesn't have final edit

641
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: on that. That's a bull crap story. I do like that.

642
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 1: Nico Harrison blame Mark Cuban for uh the Jalen Brunson movie.

643
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: That was cool. How do we do?

718
00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:57,279

Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well yes, the sequels almost than Godfather very rarely.

720

721
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, so it's not it's not technically a sequel because

722
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:08,239

727
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 7: I feel that way about the the musical as well.

728
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 7: Like the play, the first half before the intermission is

729
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 7: much better than the second half, so it's not really

730
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 7: the movie's fault.

731
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:29,480

732
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,600
