1
00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: Welcome in What's Driving Nick Great Episode three seventy two,

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: and as always, this episode is brought to you by

3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:16,480
Speaker 1: our friends at boost Mobile. So much to do today, Demons, Sorry,

4
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: pale your your team. It's not sometimes in sports you'll

5
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: you know, lose the battle but win the war. I

6
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 1: fear the Ravens might have lost the battle and the

7
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: war on Sunday. I fear they could be in real

8
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: trouble moving forward. Now they have a division that's winnable,

9
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: and I don't really believe in Aaron Rodgers, and so

10
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: they have time to ready to steady the ship.

11
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: But the Chiefs have our number.

12
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: If the moment is this era of football, Yes, that

13
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: is true, So we will get to that. We will

14
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,960
Speaker 1: also get to listen the Monday Night The Monday Night

15
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: doubleheader was terrible. Those were not great games, and sadly

16
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:15,960
Speaker 1: the only real news from those games is a absolutely

17
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 1: catastrophic injury to one of the greatest players of the

18
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: era in Tyreek Kill. So we will get to that

19
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: in a bit. Also, of course, a bizarre Cowboys Packers

20
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: game where the offer did hit by the way, demand's

21
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: demand hold on. Before we get to Chiefs, Ravens can

22
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: I tell demon's a occasionally. I don't know. Do you

23
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 1: like dream about a bet you want to make late?

24
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: Or do you have a couple couple cocktails on a

25
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: Saturday night and you're like, I want to get this

26
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: bet in? So is this do I have about? Right?

27
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 2: Just it just gets super late, and I don't know.

28
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 2: I think it's what everybody's sleep. My brain is the

29
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 2: most active. Mike, this all makes sense. I'm gonna lock

30
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 2: it in. But obviously I'm in California.

31
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: So Demand's in California. So he can't put these teasers

32
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: in on his own. And while he has been great,

33
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: up did your teaser hit this week?

34
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? Back to a cover by the Jets last night?

35
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: Okay, perfect, Well that's why listen, that's why you tease

36
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: up those points. He has been great on following all

37
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: teaser rules consistently for the show pick. However, he in

38
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 1: the middle of the night Saturday night text me, can

39
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: you put this in for me? My biggest wager of

40
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: the season, and not only did he not follow any

41
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 1: of the teaser rules, it's just an abomination of a bet.

42
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: It's the Eagles from minus three and a half to

43
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: plus four and a half, the Chiefs up to plus

44
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 1: ten and a half playing against his team, and then

45
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 1: the Pace Day resistance because he loves eight point teasers.

46
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: The Packers, who are were a perfect teaser candidate that

47
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: actually wouldn't have won a six point teaser. Yeah, I

48
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: told that wouldn't have won. Oddly, teasing through the zero

49
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: is the only reason this one, because it was a

50
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: tie the Packers the plus one and a half. He

51
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 1: put it in. By the way, I paid you this morning.

52
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw it, but I paid

53
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,519
Speaker 1: you this morning. I wake up to that at seven

54
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: am Sunday morning, that this guy wants the worst teaser ever,

55
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: but it worked, So what he has he cash props

56
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: to you. All right, let's get to straight. The voicemail

57
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: brought to you by Boost Mobile. We are not on

58
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 1: the show today, getting to NBA Media Day reactions. We

59
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: are not going to do baseball playoffs today. We will

60
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: do some of that on Thursday. And JJ Reddick evidently

61
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: has ninety minute conversations with his friend Cha which chat GPT.

62
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna judge it. I know a lot of people,

63
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: you know, have a lot of you know, are very productive.

64
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: We get a lot of things done through AI and

65
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: through talking with AI and working with AI. I have

66
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: not fully embraced that technology as of yet. I'm sure

67
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: at some point I will. Once upon a time, I

68
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: used to be on the radio making fun of the

69
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: concept of Twitter and how I would never be on Twitter,

70
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 1: And you know now it's my only social media platform.

71
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: So I recognize I'll get there one day. I'm just

72
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: not there yet. Where I am, though, Demons is fully

73
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: relaxed and comfortable and relieved about the Chiefs. Let's get

74
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 1: right to the game of the weekend.

75
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we all saw what happened on Sunday. Your

76
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 2: Chiefs crushed my Ravens. We were obviously riddled with injuries.

77
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 2: Our quarterback went down very early into the third quarter,

78
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 2: she said, after starting two.

79
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: That is not hold on. Your quarterback did not go

80
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 1: down early in the third. He went down at the

81
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: end of the third quarter when when he tapped out

82
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: when they were down seventeen.

83
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 2: But go ahead, all right, you said your Chiefs had

84
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 2: the chance to rewrite history after starting oh and two,

85
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 2: after this game, do you think they did so? Well?

86
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 1: Listen, they studied themselves and the ow and to start

87
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: what they had to do was beat the Giants. That

88
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: was an ugly game that obviously turned on the tackle

89
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: that turned the tide. And then they had to go

90
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: take care of business against the Ravens, and take care

91
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: of business they did, and not shockingly, the moment the

92
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: Chiefs had close to a competent receiving corps, the offense

93
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: looked good again. And we don't have to do this

94
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: full history in depth, but it is worth mentioning that

95
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 1: the Chiefs traded away Tyreek Hill Mahomes snap in an offseason,

96
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: changed the way he played based on the receivers they

97
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: had one league MVP. The very next year, dealt with

98
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: more drops than any quarterback literally in modern NFL history,

99
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: figured it out by the playoffs, won the Super Bowl.

100
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: The next year, dealt with the most injured wide receiver

101
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: and running back room in the NFL, got all the

102
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: way to the Super Bowl. And the next year, which

103
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: was this year, walked into the season with his number

104
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 1: one receiver suspended for six games and his number two

105
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: receiver knocked out of Game one three plays in. And

106
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: it looked shaky for a bit. And I told you

107
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: guys that I knew real like I guess insight that

108
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: that Chargers Week one game plan. Xavier Worthy was the

109
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: EPI center of it, and him being knocked out three

110
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: plays in threw everything off. But this, the fatalism surrounding

111
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: the Chiefs from almost everyone else in the media was

112
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: And I don't want to be a scold, and I

113
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: don't want to be more annoying than I naturally am,

114
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: but it was embarrassing, and it was so fickle and

115
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: so myopic, my opic, pardon me, as if they don't

116
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: have a Hall of Fame head coach, a Hall of

117
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: Fame caliber decordinator, and the most talented quarterback to ever live,

118
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: that they couldn't figure it out. And it was as

119
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: if they were getting boat raced in these early games,

120
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: or as if they were playing terrible teams and losing.

121
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: Neither were true. Now I want to make this clear.

122
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: I don't think the Chiefs are, you know, quote fully back.

123
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: If back means being the highest scoring team in the league,

124
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: I don't think that's who they're going to be. I

125
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: don't think the Chiefs have solved all their issues. I

126
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: still think the running back room leaves a lot to

127
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: be desired, and their ability to get pressure on the

128
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: opposing quarterback without sending a blitz at the moment leaves

129
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: a lot to be desired. But you look, if you

130
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: going into the Baltimore game, if you looked around the AFC,

131
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: the only team that really you could say had no

132
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: holes to poke at it was the Chargers going into

133
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:05,599
Speaker 1: Week four, but they already were dealing with some potentially

134
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: mounting injuries that sadly, they dealt with more of during

135
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: Week four in a game they had no business losing,

136
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: but lost, And so the Bills were undefeated. But the

137
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: Bills defense had looked shaky, and they they had and

138
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: have played three consecutive games against just bottom feeders. The

139
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: Ravens were given this huge benefit of the doubt despite

140
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: having the same record as the Chiefs, and then every

141
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 1: other team that had a good record, like the Steelers

142
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 1: or the Jags, you had real reason to be concerned about.

143
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 2: And so who's first, I mean, I don't know if

144
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 2: this matters whose first slay to games. Who do you

145
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,439
Speaker 2: think has had the tougher schedule through the first four

146
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 2: weeks between the Ravens and the Chiefs.

147
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 1: I think it's been almost identical. Okay, so like they

148
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: played each other. So if we want to call that

149
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: like I so call the Chiefs Ravens game, you know,

150
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 1: a war so to speak. The Ravens played the Browns.

151
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: The Chiefs played the Giants, which is, I think the

152
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: Giants are better than the Browns, but the Browns have

153
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 1: a better defense than you know what I mean. Call

154
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: that a wash. And then the Ravens played the Bills.

155
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: The Chiefs played the Eagles. The Ravens player, I guess

156
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: we could do Bills, Chargers, Eagles, Lions, you know what

157
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: I mean, Like, I think the Bills are a little

158
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: better than the Chargers, but I think the Eagles are

159
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: a little better than the Lions. So to me, it's

160
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: very very similar. Like as far as what the opening

161
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: slate was, now you could argue the Chief Ravens game

162
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: being in Kansas City, like the Ravens having to go

163
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,199
Speaker 1: on the road for that tilts it. But the other

164
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: piece of it that was maddening to me and has

165
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: been even more maddening in the after There have been

166
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 1: two things that have happened in the aftermath of this

167
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: game that really drive me crazy. And I had kind

168
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: of a rough moment near the end of yesterday's show

169
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: on TV with why yesterday I'll apologize to him when

170
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: I see him today. It's not really the tone of

171
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 1: our show. But I got I got angry when I

172
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: shouldn't have the And I mean, I don't think he

173
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: took it like terribly. Like I think he might be

174
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: surprised when I apologize to him, but maybe not. But

175
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: it Two things have happened that to me are so frustrating.

176
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: The first one is I understand the Ravens during the

177
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: game lost Rokwan Smith and late in the game lost

178
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: Humphrey and once the game was over over over lost

179
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: Nate Wiggins. But they went into the game missing four starters.

180
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 1: Everyone and the defense already had been bad all year.

181
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: Everyone knew that and picked them. That's fine, by the way,

182
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: Like you can pick whoever you want. And I'm not

183
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: acting like that game was a lot for the the

184
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: way it played out. The Chiefs at full control, but

185
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: you know, something goes differently. Maybe not, but to know

186
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: the team has those injuries going in and then afterwards

187
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: be like, well, of course Kansas City did that. Look

188
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: at all the injuries on defense. It's just bullshit. It's

189
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 1: that if your handicap going into the game was I

190
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: think the Ravens at full strength are better, but they're

191
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: not full strength. Therefore, I think the Chiefs will win.

192
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: And then you see that game be like, yeah, that's

193
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,679
Speaker 1: what I thought, so be it. But that wasn't anyone's handicap.

194
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 1: The handicap was even with the Ravens defensive injuries, the

195
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: Chiefs offense, with Patrick freaking Mahomes on it and Andy

196
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 1: Reid calling the plays, is so broken that they're not

197
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 1: gonna be able to move the ball.

198
00:12:54,520 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 2: I mean Vegas had them as underdogs as well, correct money, Yeah.

199
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: Like, which it's so again, two and a half one

200
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: underdogs at home to a one and two team that

201
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: the two competent offenses that they had played moved the

202
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:20,239
Speaker 1: ball at will and so to then Monday morning quarterback

203
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 1: be like, oh, well, obviously this was gonna happen. That's

204
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: not what you believed. That wasn't people's picks. That wasn't

205
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: people's opinion. The conversation going into the game was who

206
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: needed it more? Kansas City? Who do you trust more?

207
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: Baltimore Good I watched Orlowski do the Ravens are built

208
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:45,839
Speaker 1: to beat the Chiefs? What it's like, No, they're built

209
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: to beat the Chiefs In the Bengals. They're just they

210
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: they're not built to beat the I think he said

211
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: the Chargers in the line something I don't know. I

212
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: it was consent, and the other piece of it was

213
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: And this is my other level of frustrating, because while

214
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 1: Ronnie Stanley did go out during this game, the Ravens

215
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 1: offense is healthy, and it was that, well, the Chiefs

216
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: aren't gonna be able to slow down a Ravens offense

217
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 1: that no one's been able to slow down. They score

218
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: thirty plus in every game, and that, of course is

219
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: not what happened. And so that frustrated me. And the

220
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 1: other thing that frustrated me had nothing to do with

221
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: Brewer Wilds, but it had to do with me listening

222
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: to Simmons Pod as I do every Monday morning, listening

223
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: to Greg Rosenthal's NFL Daily Pod, as I do every day,

224
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: listening to you know a lot of them, and watching

225
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: the Monday morning shows and all of it, and I

226
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: was like, I could not believe that I was going

227
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: going to once again have to be I guess, the

228
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: bad guy in pointing out the obvious fact that this

229
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: game turned on a totally predictable, yet inexplicable horrific Lamar

230
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: pick and the Ravens were up seven to three with

231
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: the ball on first down around midfield, and Lamar re

232
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: pedaled backwards and then threw up a prayer for no

233
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 1: reason whatsoever, a guy who has he and and again

234
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: people can be mad at me, but here are the

235
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 1: facts of it. And every year people get mad at me,

236
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: And then every year we get another piece of evidence

237
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: that I'm stone right about this. And then every year

238
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: I have to listen to folks stick their fingers in

239
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: the ears and be like, Nope, actually wrong. Lamar is

240
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: the greatest passer of the football we've ever seen. His

241
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: hires passer rating ever, never turns the ball over, and

242
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: all the big game, playoffs, games against the chief stuff

243
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: is just dumb random luck. In the last thirty games

244
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: Lamar is played, he has multiple turnovers in three of them,

245
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: the AFC Championship game against Kansas City, the Divisional round

246
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: against Buffalo, and Sunday against Kansas City. I guess that's

247
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 1: a coincidence. In the last thirty games Lamar is played,

248
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: he has thrown seven interceptions, which is remarkable that he's

249
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: only thrown seven. He had like a fifty to four

250
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: touchdown interception ratio. You know, in this stretch you moved

251
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: the playoffs. It was crazy. The interceptions are as follows

252
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: four regular season interceptions prior to Sunday, three of which

253
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: we played the video hit his receiver in the hands

254
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: and then either got like bobbled or stolen, one of

255
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 1: which Bateman just stopped running his route. But four passes

256
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: that did not need to be picked, the only three

257
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: in the last thirty games, the only three interceptions Lamar

258
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: has thrown where it's like, what the hell was that

259
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: AFC Championship game into triple coverage in the fourth quarter

260
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: against Kansas City Divisional round game, early against both against

261
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 1: Buffalo and the one Sunday. He also in those three

262
00:17:53,160 --> 00:18:02,719
Speaker 1: games had inexplicable fumbles out of nowhere. To pretend like

263
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 1: that is coincidental when we once again saw Lamark throwing

264
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:14,479
Speaker 1: his helmet out of sorts, it's just dishonest. And I

265
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: know Bill Pollion was mean in his commentary towards the

266
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 1: guy eight years ago, and I know some of the

267
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: worst actors in media, sports or otherwise tried to pigeonhole

268
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: him as a wide receiver in a pretty nakedly at

269
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: times racist way. I get that, and I understand because

270
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: of that there has been a almost protectionism and a

271
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: want for folks to see him succeed at the highest level.

272
00:18:53,119 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with that, But why do we have

273
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 1: to pretend what is obviously true is not? Why do

274
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 1: we have to pretend that this is a unique thing

275
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: we haven't seen across sports? Our whole lives the all

276
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: time great, legendary player who sadly gets tight in his

277
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 1: biggest spots and plays his worst in his biggest moments.

278
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 1: That's part of sports man. And nobody was going back

279
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 1: and taking away Peyton Manning's MVPs and his records because

280
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: he struggled massively in the biggest spots. But we weren't

281
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:52,640
Speaker 1: pretending it was coincidental either, talking about the Peyton Manning face,

282
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: talked about how he got anxious, talked about how his

283
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: brother was like the bizarro version of him, a holy meeting,

284
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 1: theocre player for giant expanses of his career, who somehow,

285
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: in the biggest spots played his absolute best, and for

286
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 1: some reason with Lamar, we gotta pretend it's not happening.

287
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 1: I gotta and listen, I don't know this guy but

288
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: I think he does good work. I think he's a

289
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: smart commentator. But I Deontay Lee at the ringer. I

290
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: before the Lamar fumble, I tweeted, Lamar's basically gone two

291
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 1: years without making that this was on the pick, without

292
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: making that exact type of mistake except for in the

293
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: twenty three AFC Championship game, of the twenty four Divisional

294
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 1: round and just now against Kansas City probably a coincidence,

295
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:56,120
Speaker 1: and Deontay Lee quote tweets it right. Nobody can identify

296
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: the intrinsic traits of a winner and loser like Nick Wright.

297
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: He is the seer. It's like, no, bro, I'm not

298
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,199
Speaker 1: trying to tell you, I'm not trying to act like

299
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: I look in at guy's eyes and can determine whether

300
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: he has the IT factor. I'm just trying to act

301
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: like I've watched this guy's whole fucking career, and from

302
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:30,239
Speaker 1: day one, he has been a guy who, in the

303
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: postseason or in these instances now when he sees Patrick

304
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: across the field, plays his worst football. And we can

305
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: act like it's a small sample, but he's played the

306
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 1: Chiefs seven times. He's played I think ten playoff games,

307
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: like it's not a small sample. And I my frustration

308
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 1: is and again, so this is the other thing, demand say,

309
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: And this is what I'll say before we keep it moving,

310
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: and maybe demands you'll tell me this is unfair. I

311
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: don't think if I'm a Ravens fan, I don't think.

312
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 1: The thing that I came out of that game most

313
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: disheartened about was the defense. And the reason for that

314
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: is obviously, if the defense is this bad, they are

315
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 1: drawing dead, you know what I mean. They can't have

316
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: the worst defense in football. But what to me was

317
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,879
Speaker 1: so disheartening about it if you're a Ravens fan, is

318
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: you're now gonna have in the back of your head,

319
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 1: even if we get the defense fixed by when we

320
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 1: get to these moments against Josh or Patrick, are we

321
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:54,120
Speaker 1: getting MVP Lamar Or are we getting throwing his head back,

322
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:59,120
Speaker 1: slamming the helmet, taking terrible sacks, throwing off his back

323
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 1: foot lamar I That to me is the concern defense.

324
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 2: Defense definitely has to get better. Think that will help

325
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 2: a lot, obviously, but it's it's every single time you

326
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 2: are realizing more and more that I think it's a

327
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 2: mental thing. It's not like a physical he's pretty I

328
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 2: don't want to say he I don't want to put

329
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,360
Speaker 2: it all on themar but seems pretty checked out from

330
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 2: the start. I don't want to say checked out, like disinterested,

331
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 2: but I mean there was a nice third and eleven

332
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 2: that he picked up one when they were still up,

333
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 2: and he still just kind of walked back to the

334
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 2: huddle looked a little sad. He's, yeah, he's his emotions.

335
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 2: He's just not up in spry like I see him

336
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,959
Speaker 2: in other games, and it's just it is a little disfunte.

337
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,919
Speaker 1: He tried to take it back, but he said a

338
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: few years ago that Mahomes had been as kryptonite and

339
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 1: he was asked like member, and it was like the

340
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 1: how you know, excited do you get to play the

341
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 1: Chiefs And he's like, I'm not excited at all, like

342
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,199
Speaker 1: and it was kind of charming almost, but then he

343
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 1: tried to pull it back later He's like, no, I

344
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: don't feel that way. It it's in his head and

345
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: I don't think his team And this is what I

346
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: want your take on. I don't think the play calling

347
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: in these spots does him any favors by trying to

348
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 1: put the whole game on him, you have Derrick Henry.

349
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,679
Speaker 2: Derrick, Yeah, exactly. We weren't using him as much as

350
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 2: we should have in the game.

351
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 1: And it was the same story in the AFC Championship game.

352
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 1: They didn't have Derrick Henry then, but they had a

353
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 1: great running game. They wouldn't run the ball like it's

354
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: it's like they it sometimes feels like they go into

355
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 1: these games like trying to prove a point that Lamar

356
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,439
Speaker 1: can just do it Patrick, like just go get the

357
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 1: get the win.

358
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 2: And then even in a couple instances where he would

359
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 2: have normally evaded, he just kind of I don't know,

360
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,199
Speaker 2: he just seemed like he almost took the sac. I

361
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 2: see Lamar getting out of some of those situations that

362
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 2: he got trapped in.

363
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 1: But well, it's been two weeks in a row, where

364
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: like they yeah, and so listen, and I'm not going

365
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,719
Speaker 1: to kill him too much on some of those sacks

366
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:16,919
Speaker 1: because some of the greatest Lamar plays ever are plays

367
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 1: it looks like he should have been sacked, somehow gets

368
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 1: away and then makes a crazy throw. So to keep

369
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 1: those available, sometimes you're just not gonna get away. But yeah,

370
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 1: I mean, he wasn't good and I just don't think

371
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,880
Speaker 1: it's coincidental. Let's get to some of these follow ups here.

372
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 2: Pal, So with Baltimore, do you think that Kansas City

373
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,199
Speaker 2: isn't a good spot right now, because obviously Baltimore is

374
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 2: super down, So like, is Kansas City humming or is Baltimore,

375
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 2: you know, just at a heavy disadvantage right now.

376
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: So listen, I think that I don't think everything is

377
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 1: you know, the sky is falling in Baltimore, because I

378
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: do think that Lamar is going to instantly be back

379
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 1: to being regular season Lamar. Like I expect Lamar against

380
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: a great Texans defense to be excellent. I expect Lamar

381
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: against the Rams to be excellent. Like I don't. I'm

382
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: not too worried about the hamstring. That was a weird

383
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 1: one because he got no treatment and he's like the trainers. Yeah,

384
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: it was like he wrapped a that was a weird one.

385
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: So I think he's gonna play and I think he'll

386
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: be good. But I think the defense, you know, they're

387
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: gonna just have to outscore people and hope the defense

388
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,439
Speaker 1: gets healthy by the end of the year. And I

389
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 1: don't think Kansas City is fully fixed, but I think

390
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 1: Kansas City has now fully steadied themselves, and the Chargers

391
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 1: did them a huge favorite by blowing that game to

392
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: the Giants. And now it's like, you know, in short order,

393
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,439
Speaker 1: the Chargers could theoretically be or the Chiefs could be

394
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: back in for plays.

395
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 2: What else do we have, so chat Andy asks Nick.

396
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 2: Nick worried that the chief success is seemingly tied to

397
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,160
Speaker 2: a skinny wire receiver's health Worthy. Yeah, I mean big

398
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 2: focal point.

399
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: It was huge. Now listen, Xavier was healthy all last

400
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: year and took some big shots. Yes, but I am

401
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:25,120
Speaker 1: worried about that. I also think though, that once they

402
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: get Rashie back, it's less tied just to Worthy. And

403
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 1: in theory, once they get Rashie back, the Chiefs should

404
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: have the best receiving core mahomes has had in four years.

405
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: Rashi Worthy. Thornton's been Knight a nice addition, like it

406
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 1: kind of pushes Hollywood Brown.

407
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got like, I'm obviously a Ravens fan, but

408
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 2: you guys weren't. You guys did look good in the game, and.

409
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 1: It was fun and and the Chiefs are more fun

410
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: when they play like that and Mahomes Listen, those Mahomes

411
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 1: red zone touchdowns to Thornton and to Juju were sick.

412
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: Those were starts that yes, he had to fire those

413
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: in and I thought, I thought those were those were excellent.

414
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 1: All right, Let's do one more Baltimore followup for him.

415
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 2: Let's go on home with Derrick Henry. Like obviously he's

416
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 2: had the track were going of fumbling this season, but

417
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 2: his usage.

418
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,959
Speaker 1: I wouldn't worry about the fumbles. I just don't know

419
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: why they didn't give him the ball more. It's just

420
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 1: so weird to me that they wouldn't give him the

421
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 1: ball more. He had I think four carries for thirty

422
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: one yards on the opening drive. Yeah, and so listen,

423
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: I'm not ready to do Harball hot seat, especially because

424
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,719
Speaker 1: here's the other thing. I still think they're gonna win

425
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: the AFC North demanse. The Bengals are a mess. The

426
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: Browns have the worst offense in the league outside of

427
00:28:55,280 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: maybe Tennessee. And I don't I don't trust pitch yet

428
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: now I thought they were gonna lose like I was

429
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 1: wrong about Pittsburgh Sunday morning. If so, let me put

430
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: it like this, I think right now ten wins still

431
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: wins Baltimore the AFC North, and I obviously think they

432
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: can get to ten wins, they would have to go

433
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 1: nine and four the rest of the way, and I

434
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: expect them to definitely be able to do that. Now,

435
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: if Pittsburgh really gets rolling, maybe A'll adjust. But I

436
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 1: wouldn't panic about missing the playoffs on Baltimore. I just

437
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 1: panic about what have I seen this year that makes

438
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 1: me feel like I'm a real contender. And my answer

439
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 1: to that question is nothing. Today's show brought to you

464
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: New Jersey, Ohio, Tennessee, or Virginia to play. Terms and

Speaker 1: eighty eight Admit it. In Indiana. If you were someone

Speaker 1: eight hundred gambler in Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, New Jersey, Ohio, Tennessee,

470
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 1: or Virginia. Let's go to Packers Cowboys pout.

471
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 2: So you said on Thursday show that there was no

472
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 2: way that Dallas is going to be green Bay, and

473
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 2: I guess you were correct to a certain extent. That

474
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 2: game ended forty forty in a tie and overtime. Mike

475
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 2: had eight quarterback pressures and probably got to deck when

476
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 2: it mattered the most. But you said the bigger story

477
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 2: of the game here was green Bay's offense late. What

478
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 2: did you see there?

479
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: All right, So let me do with Micah first quickly,

480
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: and then we'll do the Packers. Listen, I'm the Packers'

481
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: defense had been a plus through three weeks, and then

482
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 1: they were really bad on Sunday night. There's no you know,

483
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 1: there's no getting around that. That's obvious. They were really

484
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: bad Sunday night. I did think Micah's shoestring tackle on

485
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: Dakh saved the Packers because Dak was gonna score a touchdown,

486
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 1: held him to a field goal because of it. But

487
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: that was a disappointing performance for the Packers. And on

488
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 1: the mic afront, I I can't watch the I can't

489
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 1: watch the Cowboys offense look the way it has looked

490
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: through a month and not feel like, man, had they

491
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 1: just gotten it worked out with Micah, they they'd be

492
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: like a fringe contender. Dak is playing out of his mind, bro,

493
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: like he's playing great and doing that against that defense

494
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 1: without Ceedee Lamb Pickens having the game of his life

495
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 1: was so impressive, and so it just feels so bitter

496
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 1: sweet if you're a Cowboys fan, where it's like, man,

497
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: if we had just gotten this worked out with Micah

498
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: and our defense was just average, like we'd be a

499
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: real team. I think right now they'd be three and

500
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: one instead of one two and one, and they'd be

501
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: a problem for teams and Joe valid game. I think

502
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: it's so that the thing is, I think it's the opposite.

503
00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: I I know that, Yeah, I know, but a lot

504
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 1: of people had that take because the Packers defense was bad,

505
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 1: but the Cowboys defense was just as bad.

506
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:15,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, And so like I I know, this feels maybe

507
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 3: a little unfair, but the better the Cowboys offense plays,

508
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 3: the more I hate the trade because it's like, man,

509
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 3: you had a real chance to contend.

510
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:28,239
Speaker 1: Now the end of the game is the concerning part.

511
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 1: So I I want to give Matt Lafleur grace in

512
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:40,760
Speaker 1: this regard, he was terrified of Brandon Aubrey. What Matt

513
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 1: Lafleur was trying to avoid was the Packers kicking a

514
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: field goal with thirty seconds left and then having to

515
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: kick off to this mutant kicker, Brandon Aubrey, indoors where

516
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: they could would potentially get to God, if they get

517
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 1: to their own forty five yard line and it's a

518
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:13,280
Speaker 1: seventy two yard field goal, you'd feel like got a chance.

519
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 1: And with the new kickoff rule, if you you know,

520
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 1: kick a touch back, they started the thirty five like

521
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 1: the Cowboys probably fought thought man, they could start fifteen

522
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 1: yards from field goal range. So they were trying to

523
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:37,359
Speaker 1: make sure if they kicked a field goal, that if

524
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: they kicked a field goal, that Green Bay was not

525
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: going to have any time. I understand that, and you.

526
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 2: Know that to get the kickoff to you to get start.

527
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 1: To ignore that, ignore that, and so the the I

528
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 1: understand Dan Matt Lafleur being cautious, I don't understand or

529
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: I didn't understand it. First his total lack of trust

530
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 1: in Jordan Love, who's playing a good game, to take

531
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 1: any chances to just win the game with a touchdown.

532
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: The way you remove Brandon Aubrey from the equation is

533
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: you score a touchdown. Okay, you score a touchdown, the

534
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: game's over. But it was kind of validated by the

535
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 1: fact that Jordan Love almost butchered the end of that game.

536
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 1: They're very lucky that the Cowboys timekeeper is ethical and

537
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 1: what didn't just delay by a half second and let

538
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 1: the clock run out. You would that was a very

539
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: nice thing for a road timekeeper to do. But Jordan lucky.

540
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 2: But that was what happened though, Like that was the

541
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:04,319
Speaker 2: amount of time that was I mean maybe I mean,

542
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 2: like this seconds.

543
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 1: When it hit the ground, Like it feels like if

544
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: there were tenths of a second de Mon's that that

545
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 1: thing would have been like point two. And if it's

546
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 1: point two, like you could probably just be like, oh

547
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 1: it's you know, but regardless, the the fact of the

548
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 1: matter is it's second down. The Packers have no timeouts,

549
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 1: and Jordan Love, instead of throwing it away or like

550
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: scrambling and throwing it away, checks it down. And now

551
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 1: the clock inbounds, and now the clock's running. He has

552
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 1: to know if I cannot get this snap off at

553
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: with ten seconds left, I need to just spike the

554
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: ball and will take the field goal. They almost got

555
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 1: a procedural penalty, which would have been a ten second

556
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 1: runoff game over. They everything happened late and they almost

557
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: ran out of time. That for a guy who's not

558
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 1: even close to a rookie, he's been in the league

559
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: a long time at this point, that was a brutal

560
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: and almost just killed like in the game, end of

561
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 1: game sequence. That made me more concerned about the Packers'

562
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 1: Super Bowl hopes than anything else was the fact that

563
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: I still don't have full trust in Jordan Love. I

564
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 1: just don't. And so that was I thought that was

565
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,280
Speaker 1: really shaky, and I thought Lafleur showed he didn't fully

566
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 1: trust Jordan Love by not letting Love just try to

567
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,360
Speaker 1: go for the touchdown with the play calls. It seemed

568
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:55,959
Speaker 1: like it was very conservative out on the edges don't

569
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,400
Speaker 1: make a mistake and seemed And the other thing is

570
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: I was surprised Green and they seemingly was okay with

571
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,280
Speaker 1: the tie when they're going to be in a dog

572
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: fight for that division and for seeding and the win

573
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: is going to be way more valuable for them. But

574
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: so that's it, all right, what's follow up here?

575
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 2: Would you would you change the ot rules overtime rules?

576
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 2: And if you would, how would you change them?

577
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, people are like, oh, you shouldn't have ties or

578
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: it make the period longer. I totally disagree with that.

579
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 1: Football is a brutal, dangerous, violent sport. They do not

580
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 1: need to be playing longer when it's the regular season.

581
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: I would be totally fine with moving over, no removing overtime.

582
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: The goal is to win in regulation, and if you

583
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 1: don't win in regulation, it's a tie. Deal with them.

584
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 1: I would be fine with that. And if you're not

585
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 1: going to do that, I like sudden death, and I

586
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,719
Speaker 1: know people are you know, the first score wins, have

587
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:10,839
Speaker 1: it be over. People are like, oh, that's unfair. Then

588
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 1: it comes down to a coin flip again. If you

589
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 1: frame the conversation as I always have, which is the

590
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: goal of the game is to win in sixty minutes.

591
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:30,879
Speaker 1: Once you fail at that goal, randomness and variance and

592
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: bad luck comes into play. And so this idea that, oh, no,

593
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 1: they should have kept that game going is absurd.

594
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:39,799
Speaker 2: Yeah.

595
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 1: No, and so or bring back the fifteen minute overtime.

596
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 1: I don't like any of that. The goals to win

597
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: in regulation, and if you don't win in regulation, it

598
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 1: could be you know, it's subject to what people consider unfair.

599
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: But I would be fine with getting rid of OT

600
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 1: in the regular season entirely personally. And I think that

601
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: also would lead to some very interesting late game decisions,

602
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:14,720
Speaker 1: Like if a team is down three late in the game,

603
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: do they go for a field goal knowing, all right,

604
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 1: the best we can do now is tire, or do

605
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: they go for the touchdown? If the team is down

606
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,399
Speaker 1: seven and scores a touchdown super late, do they automatically

607
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,600
Speaker 1: go for two? I think that I think those things

608
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 1: could be interesting. All right, let's go on to some

609
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:30,840
Speaker 1: other games.

610
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 2: So the Eagles are still undefeated, but it has not

611
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 2: looked very good. Hert said, zero second half passing yards.

612
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 2: Sakwan can't get it going. AJ Brown is distraught. Even

613
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 2: with all those injuries. We talked about how much of

614
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 2: a disadvantage Tampa Bay was last week. They still came down.

615
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 2: They were a Baker goal line interception away from making

616
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 2: the game. What's going on over there?

617
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:53,319
Speaker 1: Yeah?

618
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 2: What's going on over there in Philly?

619
00:41:55,880 --> 00:42:00,920
Speaker 1: So they just can't play a normal game. I give

620
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: him a listen. They have an excellent team. And you

621
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 1: know they last two weeks ago, they block a field

622
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 1: goal to win a game. This week they get the

623
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 1: game going with a blocked punt. You know what I mean,

624
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 1: Like I in a block punt touchdown. It's really impressive.

625
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 1: But two weeks ago, they had negative passing yards in

626
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 1: the first half and then we're excellent in the second half.

627
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: This week, they were excellent in the first half and

628
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: then zero completions in the second half. And they just can't.

629
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 1: And AJ Brown is tweeting, you know, passive aggressive scripture.

630
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: He's not happy. It's it's now. They've had a brutal

631
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 1: schedule and they're four and up. They've played the Cowboys,

632
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Rams, the Bucks. So I'm not nagging

633
00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 1: the Eagles here. I do think that they could. I

634
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:08,399
Speaker 1: called them the Chiefs of last year last week, where

635
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, you're undefeated, but everybody's nitpicking you. I now

636
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 1: would recommend the Eagles take a page out of the

637
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: Chiefs of two years ago book. When if you remember

638
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,359
Speaker 1: when the Chiefs were the defending champs and they were

639
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 1: having some struggles during the year, and I brushed it

640
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 1: off with their practicing. I was like, they are working

641
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 1: on things, so they are during the games, so they

642
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:38,239
Speaker 1: are malleable late in the year and can beat you

643
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 1: a bunch of different ways. And then I was proven

644
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 1: exactly correct. I think that might be worthwhile for Philadelphia.

645
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 1: It might be worthwhile to use some of these games

646
00:43:56,239 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 1: to be like, hey, let's have the purpose of this

647
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:07,239
Speaker 1: game for aj Brown to leave it happy. Let's draw

648
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:12,640
Speaker 1: some inbreaking over the middle routes where he never gets

649
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 1: thrown the ball, and see if see what it looks like,

650
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 1: see if Jalen can be more reliable as a pure

651
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: drop back passer, Just so we have that club in

652
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 1: our bag. It is because right now they are just

653
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 1: playing weird games with weird vibes afterwards, because one of

654
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 1: the very best players on their team is clearly unhappy and.

655
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 3: Uh.

656
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: And the other piece of it is Saquan is not

657
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 1: nearly as effect this year as he was last year.

658
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 1: Now maybe that changes, but we're a quarter of the

659
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: way through and he's three point one yards per carry.

660
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:17,240
Speaker 1: He's gone for sixty eighty eight, forty six and forty

661
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:22,360
Speaker 1: three in these games. He is seventy total receiving yards.

662
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,280
Speaker 1: And this is coming off one of the greatest years.

663
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 1: Last year he averaged Himan's five point eight yards per carry.

664
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:35,399
Speaker 1: This year he's averaging barely half that at three point one.

665
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: Like that is that's a real I don't want to

666
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:47,560
Speaker 1: say concern, but it's something to look at if you

667
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:54,840
Speaker 1: need to figure out, Okay, if he's not dominant, what

668
00:45:54,960 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 1: are other ways we can beat you? And so listen, Philly,

669
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: they're the defending champs. They've won twenty out of twenty

670
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 1: one games, or nineteen out of twenty games. They've won

671
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,560
Speaker 1: in a bunch of different ways. I have a ton

672
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:15,359
Speaker 1: of respect for it, and I gotta give Sirianni credit, begrudgingly,

673
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 1: but they're trying to get through twenty games here and right,

674
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,479
Speaker 1: and you can't have in two weeks like the two

675
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:34,840
Speaker 1: of the entire league, thirty two teams have played four games,

676
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 1: so that's one hundred and twenty eight you know games,

677
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,800
Speaker 1: two halves a game, So there's been two hundred and

678
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:49,760
Speaker 1: fifty six halves of football played in the NFL this year.

679
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 1: The two worst passing halves of the two hundred and

680
00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 1: fifty six where the first first half by Philadelphia two

681
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,919
Speaker 1: weeks ago and the second half by Philadelphia two days ago.

682
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: That's weird. And I'm not even like banging on jail

683
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: in here or anything. It's just weird. And I don't know,

684
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 1: I don't think they can ignore it just because they've

685
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 1: been winning. All right, What else do we got?

686
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 2: Baker was talking trash with down three touchdowns? Yeah, how

687
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 2: many other quarterbacks in the league do you think you're

688
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 2: doing it?

689
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 1: Maybe just Baker? And I do understand some of the

690
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:32,759
Speaker 1: Eagle fans being frustrated, like do the taunting rules not

691
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 1: apply to this guy? But that's just Baker. There's a

692
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,399
Speaker 1: little bit of like the Draymond effect of oh, he

693
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,400
Speaker 1: does this the entire game in all ways, so the

694
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:48,279
Speaker 1: refs get a little, you know, numb to it. But

695
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 1: speaking of Baker to perfect segue to our brand new

696
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:59,879
Speaker 1: sponsored segment, College Football's Walk On Mount Rushmore, presented by

700
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 1: paying tribute to the legends who started with no scholarship,

701
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:20,719
Speaker 1: no spotlight, and still carved out unforgettable careers like you

702
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 1: are going to see Chad Powers hopefully do on the

703
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 1: new show on Hulu and Hulu on Disney Plus again.

704
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,720
Speaker 1: I've gotten a sneak preview of the show. It's really

705
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 1: fun and we'll talk more about that later. But the

706
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 1: first person on the Mount Rushmore of walk Ons is,

707
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:44,840
Speaker 1: of course Baker Mayfield, who took being a walk on

708
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:51,760
Speaker 1: twice two two times, being the Big twelve Offensive Player

709
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 1: of the year, was an All American, won the Heisman.

710
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:59,640
Speaker 1: He walked on at Texas Tech and you know, found

711
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 1: fought his way and got a starting job, but that

712
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 1: wasn't enough for him. He then walked on at Oklahoma

713
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:13,320
Speaker 1: and had truly a record setting college career. He left

714
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: college at the time with the highest passer rating ever.

715
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:20,960
Speaker 1: His first year at Oklahoma thirty six touchdown seven picks

716
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,360
Speaker 1: in fourth in the Heisman voting, his second year at

717
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 1: Oklahoma forty touchdowns eight picks, completed seventy one percent of

718
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 1: his passes, third in the Heisman voting, and his final

719
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:36,879
Speaker 1: year at Oklahoma forty three touchdown six picks, again over

720
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 1: seventy percent completions, first in the Heisman voting, won the

721
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,879
Speaker 1: Maxwell Award, won the Walter Camp Award, the whole nine

722
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:49,520
Speaker 1: and he had to walk on everywhere, and now he's

723
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 1: kind of been a walk on in the NFL, had

724
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,799
Speaker 1: to walk on with the Bucks, kind of fight with

725
00:49:54,880 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 1: Kyle Trash for his job, and has just been, you know,

726
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:08,759
Speaker 1: turned himself into a great, great player. So uh. The

727
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:15,000

732
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 1: let's get to one more game before we get to

733
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 1: Tyreek and some of the quick hitters.

734
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,399
Speaker 2: So you're Jackson proved a three to one all while

735
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 2: making Party look awful. Could things have gone any better

736
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 2: for you in this game? You hater?

737
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:50,879
Speaker 1: Well, I'm not a hater, but I mean Party came

738
00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:54,880
Speaker 1: back from injury and had three turnovers. The Jacks are

739
00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 1: the Jacks. Aer is something to deal with and you

740
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: know what the you know, that's the Monday night game.

741
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's it's the right ball, is what you want?

742
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 2: Probably want to call that?

743
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 1: Huh oh, yeah, oh nice, nice. I like that. I

744
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: should have thought of that myself.

745
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:16,880
Speaker 2: What if wins, you'd be that'll.

746
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 1: Be a bummer. If Jacksonville wins, you gotta take them

747
00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: real serious, because here's the deal. The Jags offense has

748
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,560
Speaker 1: not been that good. Like I can't be like, oh,

749
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,759
Speaker 1: I told you so about Trevor. Trevor's not been that good.

750
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,919
Speaker 1: He has five touchdowns, four picks, less than six yards

751
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:40,240
Speaker 1: per attempt to seventy five rating. That's not their story.

752
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:46,600
Speaker 1: Their story is last year. This is such a crazy

753
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 1: stat that I want to make sure it's correct. I

754
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 1: know it's correct, but I just want to double checks.

755
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,400
Speaker 1: It's their takeaways compared to last year. So I'm double

756
00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:04,320
Speaker 1: checking this last year year the Jaguars. Yeah, it is correct.

757
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 1: How many takeaways do you think the Jacksonville Jaguars had

758
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:10,280
Speaker 1: last season?

759
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:11,440
Speaker 2: I'll go three.

760
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 1: Well, that's crazy, but it's played the game poorly. You

761
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 1: played the game like you went so low. You went

762
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 1: so low that it's no longer crazy what I'm saying.

763
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:31,000
Speaker 1: I should have said this the second the second worst

764
00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:34,319
Speaker 1: team in takeaways last year, where the Browns and the

765
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:39,600
Speaker 1: Patriots with twelve. The Jags had nine they had nine

766
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:47,800
Speaker 1: takeaways all season. This year they have thirteen. They have

767
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:54,120
Speaker 1: they have thirteen takeaways through four games. They had nine

768
00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 1: takeaways through seventeen last year. So that's been the story.

769
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 1: The defense has been excellent. Liam Cohen's fired up, wanting

770
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,560
Speaker 1: to fight Bob Salah, Bob Slas threatening to end his

771
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 1: effing life. Whole thing. The But the Jags, because the

772
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:14,759
Speaker 1: Texans have been such a mess. The Colts came back

773
00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,839
Speaker 1: down to earth a bit. The Jags are legitimate.

774
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:21,400
Speaker 2: I mean came down to earth a little bit bit.

775
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 2: That team is serious though.

776
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:28,439
Speaker 1: That was an impressive game, even in the loss. Yeah,

777
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:33,280
Speaker 1: but like if we were right now, you it's hard

778
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 1: to make an AFC Top five and not really consider

779
00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 1: including the Jags. Uh and the Niners on the other hand,

780
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 1: I just Perty's trying to do a little too much.

781
00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:50,720
Speaker 1: And now they play Thursday night. Pierce all got added

782
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:54,480
Speaker 1: to the injury report, party went back on the injury report.

783
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 1: I think the Niners could be in real, real trouble.

784
00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:00,920
Speaker 1: All right, So I want to about Tyreek for a

785
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,839
Speaker 1: second here. First I want to say this, I think

786
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 1: the Internet can be real shitty at times and the

787
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:13,280
Speaker 1: whole like, oh, Tyreek was so sick of playing with Tua.

788
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:17,680
Speaker 1: He's clapping and smiling, guys, because if you guys, because

789
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,000
Speaker 1: when he was carted off the field, he seemed like

790
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:30,719
Speaker 1: before it almost yep, guys, I do not think you

791
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 1: should take anything away from how a person is reacting

792
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:45,200
Speaker 1: moments after they suffer a truly even by NFL standards,

793
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:51,319
Speaker 1: catastrophic injury. As far as what that the shock and

794
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:55,799
Speaker 1: the adrenaline and the emotion, what how what that does

795
00:54:55,880 --> 00:55:02,000
Speaker 1: to your brain like that is I would imagine as

796
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:06,480
Speaker 1: close to being not sober, like the way being hammered

797
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,680
Speaker 1: can impact your brain. I would imagine that's similar. So

798
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 1: I'm not I thought that was crummy, even by modern

799
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:17,440
Speaker 1: Internet standards. And listen, I'm not trying to defend across

800
00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 1: the board. You know, Tyreek the guy, But I thought

801
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:26,319
Speaker 1: that was unfair. Here's the other thing, man, That is

802
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:30,239
Speaker 1: the type of injury to Monse that he could be

803
00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:35,440
Speaker 1: out for all of next year. That's as bad as

804
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:41,600
Speaker 1: it gets. The knee dislocation is not a knee cap dislocation.

805
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:46,440
Speaker 1: It is a true full knee dislocation with all the

806
00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:54,400
Speaker 1: ligament terrors that go along with it. And I I

807
00:55:54,520 --> 00:56:03,200
Speaker 1: don't know if he comes back then and the speed

808
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:07,759
Speaker 1: that's right, That's the thing, Like, I don't know what

809
00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:14,360
Speaker 1: that will do to his ability to be an impactful player.

810
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:21,839
Speaker 1: And so it does feel at least kind of appropriate

811
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:26,520
Speaker 1: to at least look at if this is it for

812
00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:32,080
Speaker 1: Tyreek Kill, which it might be. Tyreek Kill the football

813
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:40,880
Speaker 1: player is quite simply one of the greatest receivers any

814
00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:45,160
Speaker 1: of us have ever seen. And that is not an overstatement.

815
00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:52,560
Speaker 1: The only the only receivers. I'm going to try to

816
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 1: do this off the top of my head, but I

817
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:58,040
Speaker 1: want to just pull up like all time receiving touchdowns,

818
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 1: just uh uh, make sure I'm not forgetting anybody, uh

819
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: you know obvious. I'm trying to think the only receivers that,

820
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:15,840
Speaker 1: without a shadow of a doubt, you know, I feel

821
00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:30,680
Speaker 1: I'd rather have than Tyreek Moss, Jerry Rice. Are you

822
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:39,240
Speaker 1: know what that's the list for me. I'm not saying

823
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 1: he's the third greatest receiver ever, and in fact, he

824
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:46,280
Speaker 1: definitionally isn't you know, because it you know, didn't play

825
00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:48,920
Speaker 1: long enough in all you know, all of that. But

826
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 1: as far as guys that, hands down were better than him,

827
00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 1: the only guys that I can say were hands down

828
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 1: better than Tyreek for me are Moss and Jerry Rice,

829
00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 1: now Megatron t O. Uh, those guys you can obviously

830
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 1: make a very strong case were better than him. I

831
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 1: don't know if I agree with that case. I Tyreek

832
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:41,000
Speaker 1: was such a dynamic, indefensible weapon that I just if

833
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:45,720
Speaker 1: you want, if you believe he's one of the five

834
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 1: greatest receivers of all time, I think that's a legitimate opinion.

835
00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:55,120
Speaker 1: Didn't have one. If it is over for him, and

836
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,600
Speaker 1: again it's crazy we're talking about this, but you have

837
00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:02,440
Speaker 1: it's on the board, it's over. Obviously, didn't have one

838
00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:05,120
Speaker 1: of the five greatest careers of all time. Like my

839
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:08,040
Speaker 1: old co host, my pal Chris Carter had a better

840
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:14,200
Speaker 1: career than Tyrek. Marvin Harrison and Larry Fitzgerald had better

841
00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:24,920
Speaker 1: careers than Tyreek. But as far as guys who I

842
00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:35,840
Speaker 1: would rather have, I think it's Moss, Rice, Tio's tough

843
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:42,440
Speaker 1: te TiO was as great as TiO was, his peak

844
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 1: was not Tyreek's peak. This guy is a five time

845
00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:52,600
Speaker 1: first team All Pro and his receiving yards after his

846
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:57,840
Speaker 1: rookie year ago twelve hundred, fifteen hundred, eight hundred he

847
00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 1: was injured twelve hundred and twelve hundred and then leaves

848
01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:06,120
Speaker 1: Kansas City and goes seventeen hundred eighteen hundred and in

849
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:13,280
Speaker 1: the playoffs, he was I mean, he averaged averaged eighty

850
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:19,880
Speaker 1: yards per game in the postseason with seven postseason touchdowns.

851
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:27,560
Speaker 1: Eight postseason touchdowns. I Jones no seven postseason touchdowns? What's up?

852
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 2: The Jones and the Chet says it's Tyreek a Hall

853
01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:31,280
Speaker 2: of Famer if he never comes.

854
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:37,840
Speaker 1: Back, Oh, first ballot. It's not even that's that's like,

855
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:46,560
Speaker 1: that's not debatable, uh. I mean, being a five time

856
01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:51,560
Speaker 1: first team All Pro is bananas. Being a guy who

857
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:57,480
Speaker 1: is only one, two, three, four, eight time Pro bowler

858
01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:03,560
Speaker 1: in what five times? This is his tenth year and

859
01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:06,520
Speaker 1: so this year gets if it gets wiped out, he

860
01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:09,400
Speaker 1: will have played nine years and was a first team

861
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:14,240
Speaker 1: All Pro five of them, and his average for his career,

862
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 1: his average season was thirteen hundred yards and ten touchdowns.

863
01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:26,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he's just one of the greatest players I've

864
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:31,959
Speaker 1: ever seen. So that's my I hope it's not over

865
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:36,200
Speaker 1: for him, but man, it is. It's certainly on the

866
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:42,040
Speaker 1: board that it's over for him. Crazy, So thinking about

867
01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 1: upgrading to the all new iPhone seventeen Pro, design to

868

869
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:50,880
Speaker 1: you also thinking about the traffic on your way to

878
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:22,320
Speaker 1: these the other games quickly.

879
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:26,360
Speaker 2: Here h Seahawks defeat the Cardinals twenty three to twenty.

880
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:30,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, those Thursday night listen, the Seahawks gotta be taken seriously.

881
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:34,240
Speaker 1: The defense playing really well. Mike McDonald's got that team

882
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:36,479
Speaker 1: going in the right direction, and Donald's been way better

883
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:39,200
Speaker 1: than I expected. Like I gotta be hand up and

884
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:41,600
Speaker 1: be like I might have been wrong about this. I

885
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:44,200
Speaker 1: killed the Seahawks for what I thought was getting worse

886
01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:47,600
Speaker 1: at quarterback going from Geno to Donald. That has not

887
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:49,920
Speaker 1: been a downgrade at this point. It's been an upgrade

888
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:53,520
Speaker 1: right now, So credit words due Seahawks. Seahawks have to

889
01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:54,400
Speaker 1: be taken seriously.

890
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:58,040
Speaker 2: Next Dublin games, Steelers defeat the Vikings twenty four to

891
01:02:58,080 --> 01:02:58,560
Speaker 2: twenty one.

892
01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 1: Hand up on that one too. I did not think

893
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:06,440
Speaker 1: the Steelers be able to keep Rogers upright. Instead, he

894
01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:09,720
Speaker 1: threw every pass within us well, and he just threw

895
01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:14,120
Speaker 1: got rid of it so fast and he was super efficient.

896
01:03:14,160 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 1: He was like eighteen of twenty two for two hundred yards,

897
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:21,640
Speaker 1: and Carson Wentz was just awful. That was They almost

898
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:25,000
Speaker 1: found a way to blow it at the end, or

899
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,120
Speaker 1: at least have me closer than they should have. The Steelers,

900
01:03:27,120 --> 01:03:28,120
Speaker 1: that's a great win for them.

901
01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 2: Next the Giants to feed the Charges twenty one to eighteen.

902
01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:32,280
Speaker 2: Upset of the week.

903
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 1: Huh, upset of the week. And Amarian Hampton had twelve

904
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:43,480
Speaker 1: carries for one hundred and thirty yards in a game

905
01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 1: that was close against a rookie quarterback when you couldn't

906
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:52,400
Speaker 1: block well for them to not let Hampton. They called

907
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:56,960
Speaker 1: forty five dropbacks and twelve runs. It was the Chargers did.

908
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:00,680
Speaker 1: It was crazy and Joe Alt got hurt in that game,

909
01:04:01,040 --> 01:04:04,080
Speaker 1: which is really concerning for them. That was a brutal,

910
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:05,760
Speaker 1: brutal game for the Chargers.

911
01:04:05,760 --> 01:04:07,000
Speaker 2: What do you want to say, would do you think

912
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 2: they would have won that game with Russell Wilson.

913
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:13,640
Speaker 1: The Giants? No, Yeah, I think Dart. I think Dart

914
01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:15,760
Speaker 1: was an upgrade for them, even though he didn't like

915
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:17,920
Speaker 1: play great, he was an upgrade for them and gave

916
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 1: him an energy boost. And the obviously other stories. Sadly,

917
01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:25,120
Speaker 1: is Malik Neighbors done for the year with an acl

918
01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:28,240
Speaker 1: beck Odell Beckham said it was the Giants turf.

919
01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:31,800
Speaker 2: Next Bill's to feed. The Saints thirty one to nineteen.

920
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:37,320
Speaker 1: Not an impressive game from Buffalo. The Saints, down five

921
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,560
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, throw a touchdown pass to take

922
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:44,680
Speaker 1: a fourth quarter lead. The pass gets overturned on review

923
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:46,640
Speaker 1: and they were the catch does and they were right.

924
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:49,400
Speaker 1: They end up kicking a field goal. Josh has a

925
01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:52,280
Speaker 1: great scramble on third and five to basically ice the game.

926
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:56,080
Speaker 1: But that was a two point game in the fourth

927
01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:59,040
Speaker 1: quarter and it could have been Saints' lead in the

928
01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:04,080
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. The Bills oddly have not looked great the

929
01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:07,280
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. The Dolphins game was not that impressive,

930
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:10,480
Speaker 1: The Saints game was not impressive. Now, Luckily for them,

931
01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 1: they've gone Ravens and then Jets, Dolphins, Saints and so

932
01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:20,080
Speaker 1: the schedules allowed for But that defense has to get better. Flatly,

933
01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,200
Speaker 1: they score thirty every week. The defense has to get better.

934
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 2: Next, Falcons to feed the Commanders thirty four to twenty seven.

935
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,000
Speaker 1: Listen, not let's take away on the Commander's side, because

936
01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:33,240
Speaker 1: no Jaden Daniels. But for the Falcons, it's a nice

937
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:35,959
Speaker 1: bounce back game by Penis and he needed it after

938
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 1: that horrible, horrible loss thirty to nothing to the Panthers.

939
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:42,640
Speaker 1: That was a really nice bounce back game by Penix.

940
01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:46,720
Speaker 2: Next, Texas defeed the Titans twenty six to zero. I

941
01:05:46,760 --> 01:05:48,320
Speaker 2: took the Titans plus the points.

942
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:54,560
Speaker 1: We can't yeah, we can no longer Brian Callahan's can't

943
01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:59,040
Speaker 1: bet under any circumstances. Now, it should be said, if

944
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 1: you didn't watch this game, good for you. But also

945
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:06,080
Speaker 1: it was six nothing in the fourth quarter. The Texans

946
01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:09,320
Speaker 1: offense was struggling mightily, and then in the fourth quarter

947
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:12,560
Speaker 1: finally got clicking. Now, maybe that's a sign of things

948
01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:15,400
Speaker 1: to come. Maybe it's the Titans were you know, kind

949
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,680
Speaker 1: of gave up. But that was an ugly game, and

950
01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:23,640
Speaker 1: I gotta think Brian Callahan's days are numbered. At this point,

951
01:06:23,680 --> 01:06:26,680
Speaker 1: that Titans team looks like far and away the worst

952
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:28,040
Speaker 1: team in the league again.

953
01:06:28,520 --> 01:06:31,920
Speaker 2: Next, Patriots defeat the Panthers forty two to thirteen.

954
01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:37,280
Speaker 1: Drake May's playing ball, you know they they The Patriots

955
01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:41,120
Speaker 1: played well against Pittsburgh moving the ball, but they turned

956
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:44,000
Speaker 1: it over five times. They cleaned that up in this

957
01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:47,640
Speaker 1: game and they annihilate the Panthers. And speaking of days

958
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:52,640
Speaker 1: being numbered, Bryce is in trouble, buddy. He had that

959
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:54,600
Speaker 1: nice little stretch at the end of last year, but

960
01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:59,520
Speaker 1: Bryce has been brutal Patriots. Huge game for the Patriots,

961
01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:04,560
Speaker 1: Patriots Bills, and by the way, for the Patriots if

962
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:08,560
Speaker 1: they can somehow upset the Bills and get to three

963
01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:13,680
Speaker 1: and two their next three games, demonsay Saints Titans, Browns,

964
01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:20,000
Speaker 1: Saints Titan's Browns in a row. It's unbelievable. The Patriots

965
01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:25,040
Speaker 1: have games left, Saints Titan's Browns, two games against the Jets,

966
01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 1: another game against the Dolphins, the Bengals, and the Giants.

967
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:35,200
Speaker 1: What a schedule for the New England It's unbelievable.

968
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:39,160
Speaker 2: Next, watch out Lines defeat the Browns. Thirty four to ten.

969
01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:43,200
Speaker 1: Flaco's gotta be done. I mean that the defense can

970
01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:46,160
Speaker 1: only do so much. Uh, they got it. This is

971
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:52,440
Speaker 1: going just according to plan for sure, actually, because Flacco's

972
01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:58,800
Speaker 1: been awful. If you the idea being Flacco gets benched

973
01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:03,880
Speaker 1: early enough that there's time for Gabriel to go in,

974
01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:06,480
Speaker 1: and then he gets benched and then Shardor gets the

975
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:09,040
Speaker 1: end of the season. I think that's how this plays out.

976
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:12,440
Speaker 2: Next, Rams defeat the Colts twenty seven to twenty.

977
01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:19,840
Speaker 1: Listen, the story of this game is ad Mitchell. Yeah,

978
01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:26,280
Speaker 1: ad Mitchell making an unbelievable catch and run after and

979
01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:28,519
Speaker 1: then just the ball slipping out of his hands when

980
01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 1: he wasn't setting it down but he was trying to

981
01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:32,400
Speaker 1: extend it slips out of his hands, and then he

982
01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:37,200
Speaker 1: also had a hold on a Jonathan Taylor touchdown or else.

983
01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:41,400
Speaker 1: This is different. A great Matt Stafford game. Great Matt

984
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,760
Speaker 1: Stafford game, and two to two at well with the

985
01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 1: game winner. That's a great win for the Rams.

986
01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:49,160
Speaker 2: Next Bears defeat the Raiders twenty four.

987
01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:55,519
Speaker 1: Listen. Gino's been brutal. Ashton genty, though, looked like Ashton

988
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 1: genty for the first time since Boise State got back

989
01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:01,640
Speaker 1: to his little upright pre snap style and looked like

990
01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:05,479
Speaker 1: his old self. The Bears feel like, all right, we

991
01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:09,800
Speaker 1: got to two and two, we have the buye, everything's settled. Yeah,

992
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:12,880
Speaker 1: great win. And then last night, the one game we

993
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:17,040
Speaker 1: didn't talk about, Broncos to beat the Bengals twenty eight

994
01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:22,400
Speaker 1: to three. Ugly. The Bengals are in real, real trouble.

995
01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 1: Chase is frustrated and credit where's due. After a very

996
01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 1: shaky open to the game, Bo Nicks made a great

997
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:32,360
Speaker 1: throw right before halftime that essentially ended the game. Aikman

998
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:35,479
Speaker 1: and Buck had no interest in that game at all.

999
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:40,920
Speaker 1: And the Broncos get to two and two and steady themselves.

1000
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:43,120
Speaker 1: And the question with the Bengals is are they gonna

1001
01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:45,760
Speaker 1: call about Kirk Cousins or Russell Wilson or are they

1002
01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:50,720
Speaker 1: gonna ride with Browning? And so we'll see. In the

1003
01:09:50,720 --> 01:09:52,479
Speaker 1: other Monday night game we talked about it, I guess

1004
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,280
Speaker 1: a little bit of Tyrek injury. The Dolphins beat the

1005
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:59,439
Speaker 1: Jets justin Fields had won sick play, but the Jets don't.

1006
01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:00,960
Speaker 2: Know how to hit it. Go razy bet on that

1007
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 2: game last night. I can't believe I'm bringing it up.

1008
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:05,479
Speaker 2: But I had. I had the over three and a

1009
01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,760
Speaker 2: half on the punts and under on tous yardage, and

1010
01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:11,679
Speaker 2: then I had justin fields for a touchdown pass which

1011
01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:13,360
Speaker 2: he did not throw until the end of the game.

1012
01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:16,320
Speaker 2: And then the Dolphins couldn't pick up like fifteen yards

1013
01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:18,439
Speaker 2: ended up having a punt at the end to give

1014
01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 2: it to the Jets there.

1015
01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:23,400
Speaker 1: Oh, so you it's a crazy bet that you would

1016
01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:24,320
Speaker 1: have won but didn't.

1017
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:27,000
Speaker 2: No, I won it because the Miami couldn't pick up

1018
01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:28,800
Speaker 2: ten yards after they got the ball back on the

1019
01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:32,280
Speaker 2: last possession, and it was the last stat was over

1020
01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:36,320
Speaker 2: three and a half punts. Oh yeah, I had all

1021
01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:37,240
Speaker 2: around three and a half.

1022
01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:40,320
Speaker 1: It was on this This is a great example as

1023
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:43,200
Speaker 1: to why NFL ratings are so high, because we got

1024
01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:46,759
Speaker 1: dufuses like my son betting over three and a half punts,

1025
01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:49,679
Speaker 1: so he's locked into one of the worst football games

1026
01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:53,080
Speaker 1: of the year. I mean, it's just it's just unbelievable.

1027
01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:57,040
Speaker 1: All right, save our listener questions for Tuesday. Apologies, but

1028
