Speaker 1: yule Tide season filled with a rich head coach that

53
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: the Jets haven't Adam Gas. Last night was supposed to

54
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 1: be the Kirk Cousins game, Kawhi Leonard and allegedly some

55
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: crazy demands to come play for the Lakers. Who's still

56
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 1: on that Kirk Cousins game. This is lesticulate task in

57
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: this hour. Listen listen. Last night was supposed to be

58
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 1: the Kirk Cousins game. It was supposed to be a

59
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas for me, with Kirk Cousins finally flipping the script.

60
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: The narrative and eight in primetime games. This was this

61
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,279
Speaker 1: was his game. This was a home game with potentially

62
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: the division at stake home games in the playoffs, not

63
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: having to go on the road. I don't care. They

64
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: didn't have Dalvin Cook. This was supposed to be the

65
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins game. You mean the game in which the

66
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: Vikings at home, had one hundred and thirty nine offense.

67
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: I said they had three turnovers, three takeaways in the

68
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: first half. Yes, and could only muster ten points out

69
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: of that. You mean that game. Yes, it was supposed

70
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: to be that game. You mean the quarterback and Kirk

71
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: Cousins was now o and nine on Monday Night Football,

72
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: the worst by far by any quarterback. You mean the

73
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: guy who can't win the big game for you. You

74
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: mean the guy who the Washington Redskins drafted, watched every

75
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: single snap in practice, and refused to pay him a

76
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: big time contract. In fact, they gave him two franchise tags.

77
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: He was they would paying him a lot of money,

78
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: but they refused to commit to him. You mean the

79
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: quarterback back who got the first fully guaranteed contract in

80
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: the history of the National Football League. That guy that

81
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: was a guy you would believe it in the guy

82
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: whose team was undefeated at home all year until the

83
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers showed up. I told you, Jason Smith,

84
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: do not buy into to cut Cousins. Do not buy

85
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: into it. It wasn't gonna happen, especially without Dalvin Cook.

86
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: No Dalvin Cook, no division. It was that simple. You said,

87
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: I'm very rich. But when when you when you say

88
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: it like that force for yesterday it was that well

89
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: because well they still had to play the game, and

90
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: now you can. Now you can honk it all up.

91
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, I did tray the Packers gonna win out

92
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: you did. I never bought into I never bought into

93
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 1: the Viking. Hey listen, I I I said it. I

94
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: gotta own it. I gotta wear it. I gotta wear

95
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: this big Kirk Cousins. I feel like Jack Blacken in

96
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: in Jimmy Anji two. Uh. You know I I took

97
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: off this stupid hatton. I gotta wear this stupid at now.

98
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: I got to wear this stupid Kirk Cousins at that

99
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: I gotta put on it. Should have it should have

100
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: been a better game for Kirk Cousins, all right, he

101
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 1: was he was bad. Now not to make excuses for

102
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, But you watched this game last night. They

103
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 1: had the misplay was to Faun Diggs overthrowing what could

104
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: have been a big play, could could have led to

105
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: a bigger play. He was under durest for a lot

106
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: of the game. And I didn't see a lot of hey,

107
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: this is what we need to do. I didn't see

108
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: a sense of desperation from the Vikings to try to

109
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: win this game. It's almost a game that if you

110
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 1: don't know any better, you would watch this game and

111
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: go Did they just take the whole week off for

112
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: Christmas like Rex Grossman did all those years ago. Yeah,

113
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: I didn't prepare for this game. New Year's Eve was coming.

114
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 1: I couldn't do it. I mean, it's one of those games.

115
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: That's what it looked like that the Packers were the

116
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 1: team to practiced all week and got ready for the game,

117
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: and the Vikings just kind of showed up Monday night

118
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: expecting to play. They were not sharp. I don't know

119
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: how with all of this at stake, a home game,

120
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: home games in the playoffs, the division title, all of

121
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: this standing in front of them, and as you said,

122
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: undefeated at home with all of that in front. They

123
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: play this poorly. They play and they win the turnover

124
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: battle by two. You you win eighty percent of the

125
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: football games when you win a turnover battle by two.

126
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 1: And the Vikings did that, and still this wasn't even

127
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: a game in the fourth quarter. They couldn't muster any

128
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: offense in this game. And this was to me a

129
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: statement game by the Green Bay Packers. I know people

130
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: have been saying, I don't know how they're winning smoking mirrors.

131
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers ain't the same. I'm not buying into the Packers.

132
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 1: They were the only eleven win team that people weren't

133
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: buying into. That all to talk about the NFC was

134
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: everybody else with eleven wins, not the Green Bay Packers.

135
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you that was the statement game. You

136
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: better wake up and recognize the Green Bay Packers this morning.

137
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: The pack is back and better than ever. This is

138
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,919
Speaker 1: the most balanced Packers team we've seen. This is not

139
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: your father's Green Bay Packers. When Aaron Rodgers didn't have

140
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: a touchdown on last night's game, that's three games he

141
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: hasn't thrown a touchdown. The Packers are three and zero.

142
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: Are you ready for this? Against teams with winning records.

143
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: The Packers are eight and one, do you hear me?

144
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: Eight and won by far the best record in the NFL.

145
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: They've beat the good teams. That's all they've done. That's impressive.

146
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers only thrown for three hundred yards three times

147
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: and they have twelve wins. The last time they had

148
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: twelve wins in twenty fourteen, they went to the NFC

149
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: championship game. This is a good team. Aaron Jones nineteen touchdowns.

150
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: He gives them another dimension. Aaron Rodgers doesn't have to

151
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: force the ball into the end zone anymore. Of clauw

152
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: in the red zone. He has a back who can

153
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: get into the end zone. He's been a scoring machine.

154
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: Jason Smith, it was a statement game. This was a

155
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: game you're ride. The Vikings hadn't lost at home all year.

156
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: This was their game to tie them for the division

157
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: the Packers and possibly could have won the division. Have

158
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 1: the Packers going the road instead, don't pooh pooh the Packers.

159
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: They have a real shot. It's the best team I've

160
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: seen in a long time, and they have everything. A

161
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: defense that makes plays, a quarterback who has an unbelievable

162
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: pedigree in resume and now a running back who can

163
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: score and sniff the end zone. Those are some dangerous things.

164
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: And their confidence level eight and one against teams with

165
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: a winning record. That speaks volumes that I want to

166
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 1: get into the Packers because you brought up a really

167
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: interesting point about Aaron Jones. But first, my dad actually

168
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 1: has a bone to pick with you. I gotta text

169
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: my dad. Got my dad, you've said something twice now

170
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 1: that he couldn't he couldn't let go. He had to

171
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: text now now my dad who was born in nineteen

172
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: forty six. That's so my dad's born nineteen forty six. Twice,

173
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: he said. In the text, Rob Parker has said, this

174
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: is not your father's Green Bay Packers. He said, my

175
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers was Bart Starr at quarterback. Okay, so

176
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 1: this should be more your older brothers. Green Bay Packers

177
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: got my dad's you know, my dad's green My dad

178
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 1: growing up, you know, the green Bay Packers were, and

179
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: we're pretty star was the quarterback for the Packers then.

180
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: But if you know that the norm of the Packers

181
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: with it was always a quarterback that have to do

182
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: all the heavy lifted especially, that's been their identity and

183
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: he looks. Certain teams have identities their entire existence. Right,

184
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: the Giants are always gonna play great defen The Chargers

185
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 1: are always gonna throw the football. The Steelers are always

186
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 1: going to run the football. Right, the Packers are always

187
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: gonna throw. But but this is the biggest stat I

188
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: can give you, and the window into how the Packers

189
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 1: are no longer Aaron Rodgers driven. Right, they're not driven

190
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: by That doesn't mean Eddie can't beat you, though, No.

191
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 1: Three and oh this year when he doesn't throw a touchdown,

192
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 1: that's incredible. We told you that three years ago. Would

193
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 1: you believe it? No, because you know what his record

194
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: is in games where he hasn't thrown a touchdown coming

195
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 1: into this year four and ten, right, right, they believe

196
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 1: he never won. But as you said, the team is

197
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: balanced out. Yeah, their defense is really good. But Aaron

198
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 1: Jones is such a difference maker. He's not had a

199
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 1: running back like this in his entire run with Green Bay.

200
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: He's dynamic. I'd like him to be more consistent because

201
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones is kind of a every third game guy.

202
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: But Aaron Jones has single handedly won five games this

203
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 1: year for the Packers with not just having a good

204
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: game by for eighty ninety. But this game is where

205
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 1: he runs for one hundred and twenty hundred and fifty yards,

206
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 1: catches eight yards, and passes, yeah, one hundred and fifty

207
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: yards last night, sixteen rushing touchdowns. He's won five games

208
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: for them, and Aaron Rodgers is thrown for three hundred

209
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: yards three times. This has not been a quintessential great

210
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers year. It's been a good I mean, he's

211
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: a great quarter but he doesn't turn the ball all right,

212
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 1: and he's never turned the ball, or that's been always

213
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: been the thing. It's not Brett Farve was always he'll

214
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 1: throw you four touchdowns, but he'll throw three picks as well,

215
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 1: keep both teams in the game. Rogers never threw picks,

216
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,599
Speaker 1: and that's part of his genius. But this team is

217
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 1: winning games, and they're going and they're thirteen and two

218
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: and thirty and two because twelve and three because Aaron Jones,

219
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: like I mean, by himself offensively has won five games.

220
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 1: And when you have a running back that can do

221
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: that and especially catch balls out of the backfield too,

222
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,839
Speaker 1: he's a dual threat. I mean, this is, as you said,

223
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: the most balanced team they've had. I'm gonna go back

224
00:11:55,640 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: to the Broncos of the late nineteen nineties. Compare John

225
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: Elway had been to so many Super Bowls and last

226
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: samar I'd have been to four super Bowls, lost them all,

227
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,319
Speaker 1: most of them, right, bah blah, right. They he'd win

228
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 1: incredible games. In the AFC Championship Game, he'd throw a

229
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 1: touchdown in the final seconds, they'd get a strip of

230
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: the running back going into the end zone, Ernest Biner.

231
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: But they never won the Super Bowl, and they never

232
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: really came close. But then what happens at the end

233
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,199
Speaker 1: of his career. He finally gets Terrell Davis. Is he

234
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer? I don't be played long enough

235
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: to be in the Hall of Fame, But for the

236
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: short period of time in which he was healthy and great,

237
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: he was great. They got him, and what happened. They

238
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: went back to back Super Bowls. They win the helicopter

239
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 1: super Bowl. That wasn't really on Elway's arm, that was

240
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 1: on Terrell Davis's legs. They win the next year as well.

241
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: Elway retires, Terrell Davis is great, tears his ACL He's

242
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: never really the same after that. But this is Aaron

243
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 1: Jones to the Green Bay Packers. This is late in

244
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers' career. Now he's got that running back that

245
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: can really take the lion's share of the load. I'd

246
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: like to see him get a few more touches per

247
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: game because right now he's for a dynamic as he is.

248
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: He can't touch the ball eleven twelve times a game.

249
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: You need more than that. You look at the games

250
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: where he hasn't affected the scoreboard as much. He's only

251
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: touching the ball ten eleven times a game. He needs

252
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: to touch the ball a little bit more. Now. Whether

253
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: this is we're getting him used to a bigger work club,

254
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: but he's that dynamic guy. They are now Aaron Jones driven.

255
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: This is now, Hey, we gotta stop Aaron. We gotta

256
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 1: stop Aaron Jones. Because if we stop Aaron Jones and

257
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: turn the Packers into a one dimensional passing team, we're

258
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: gonna win games. This is what all Packers opponents are

259
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: saying right now. If we stop Aaron Jones, we force

260
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: them into being a one dimensional team. We can beat

261
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. But he's just throwing the football. I think

262
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: people are gonna be disappointed if they really believe that,

263
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: and I'm not saying I think Aaron Rodgers has with

264
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: his new coach, Matt Laflour given in. Everybody was saying

265
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: will he buy in? And Matt Laflour hasn't been the

266
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: offensive genius said everybody you know maybe thought he was.

267
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 1: Clar offense is is up and down and they don't

268
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,959
Speaker 1: score a lot of stuff. To argue when hey, we're

269
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: twelve and three, what do I always say? The two

270
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: columns column sports Sports has a short menu is wins

271
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: and losses, and Aaron Rodgers saying all the right things

272
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: and it's about winning, and uh, the other way he

273
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: did it, they didn't always win and the defense didn't

274
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: always stop people. To go into Minnesota and what I

275
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 1: would call a big game for the division, hold the

276
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: Vikings to one hundred and thirty nine yards and to

277
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: win that game going away. Remember the Vikings only scored

278
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: off of turnovers from the Packers who gave them the

279
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: ball in great field position. But other than that they

280
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: shut them down. Aaron Jones had a great game, one

281
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards, a couple of TVs. Aaron Rodgers

282
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: did what he had to do, and here they are

283
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: with twelve wins looking at the rest and again, when

284
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: you look at that record of eight and one against

285
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: teams with a winning record, that's pretty impressive, you know that.

286
00:14:57,760 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: And look, that's why. I mean, it's it's if you

287
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: look past the boy Aaron Rodgers is playing well. Here

288
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: he is in the Pro Bowl. You see it. They're

289
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: just not They don't rely on him like they had to.

290
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: He doesn't have to throw the football fifty times a

291
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 1: game anymore, you know, he just doesn't do that. He

292
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: doesn't throw for three hundred yards a game. All right.

293
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: He's got half his touchdown passes in three games, right,

294
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: he had he had five touchdowns and that big game

295
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: in Oakland, he had four against the Giants, and he

296
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: had three against Kansas City. Those are half of his

297
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: touchdowns in three games. He's got twelve touchdowns in the

298
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: other eleven games. All right, you have the twelve games

299
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: and he's played this year and touchdowns, all right, I mean,

300
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: that's that's that's not that's not a team that is

301
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: driven by your quarterback. This is okay, it's everything. And

302
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 1: the best thing about Rogers he doesn't care at this point. No,

303
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: I want to win another championship. And I'm okay, I

304
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 1: don't need to be that quarterback that's getting all the

305
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: credit that people are. He's been very quiet this year.

306
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: You know, he's not thrilled because when and he's smart,

405
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,879

406
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 1: nerve to come back and want him to bail them

407
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: out because they need a running back. How dare the Seahawks? Okay,

408
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: let me ask you this. Mars Shawn Wnch being forced

409
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 1: against his will to come in Seattle. They didn't might

410
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: hid nap. There might have been a pistol Lynn and

411
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: put a bag of rich head and come into a

412
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 1: van him to Seattle. Come shot him. He's coming. He's

413
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: coming a freeman. He can do any one. Now, you

414
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 1: guys filled him with skittles. I was sleeping five minutes ago. Hey,

415
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: went me up for this ridiculous. This isn't just a

416
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 1: trail of skittles. You can following dire strengths. Chris Carson's

417
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 1: out for the year. Steve, we're broken up here, Rocks,

418
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,880
Speaker 1: come on out, all right, So Softy, what what can

419
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 1: we do in your stupid getty cards. He's gonna be in,

420
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 1: but he's gonna have road rage because of you, Rob Park.

421
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 1: He's gone. He's gonna have road rage. Hey, so Softy,

422
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: I like this obviously you know it. Look at slim

423
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 1: pickings at the when you get to week seventeen. But

424
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: you bring in somebody who's familiar with the offense, who

425
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: brings instant energy that gets the stadium rocking, brings energy

426
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: to the team. They're not going to count them to

427
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: carry the ball twenty five times a game, but ten

428
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: eleven times goal line situations, short yarders, you bust off

429
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: a big run and that energizes everybody. I can see

430
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 1: this working well. First of all, that's exactly it, Okay,

431
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,199
Speaker 1: even if I mean, who knows what he's gonna do

432
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: on Sunday. You know, he claims he's been working out

433
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 1: like a maniac the last couple of months. He's got

434
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 1: some like Jedi night trainer that you guys may have

435
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: read about online. It's all over Twitter. He's been working

436
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: out like a machine the last couple of weeks. But

437
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: you know, again, I mean, who knows what he'll bring

438
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: to the table on Sunday. He'll be thirty four years

439
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 1: old in April. He hasn't played a football game in

440
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: fourteen months. But at the very least, he's got everybody

441
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 1: fired up, and not just the fans fired up. The

442
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: force are gonna be loud anyway, on Sunday, it's a

443
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 1: big game against the Niners division rival, all that stuff,

444
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,399
Speaker 1: But can they take it up to another level because

445
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 1: of marsh Shawn. I think they can. Can he fire

446
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: up the locker room and the defense and the offense.

447
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 1: I think they can. I was talking to JJ right

448
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 1: about Chris Carson's running style two weeks ago, and I

449
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: asked the Master, what's it like to watch Chris Carson's

450
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 1: stuff farm people? When you guys are on you know,

451
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 1: the sideline, looking up on the jumbo joining. He's a

452
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 1: matter of fires every buddy up. So I think I

453
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 1: think he will pump that entire locker room up. Everybody

454
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: will get fired up because Marshawn Lynch is here. And

455
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: let me tell you something, when he was here for

456
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: his first stint as a Seahawk, nobody was more respected

457
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: guys in that locker room than marsh Shawn Lynch. All right,

458
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: So just his presence in that locker room during the

459
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: week of practice on Sunday is gonna. I think they

460
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: dividends for this football team. There's nothing worse than living

461
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: in the past, and that's what this is. This is

462
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: a feet your gift card future. This is the field.

463
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 1: I'll get you a gift card for tomorrow, Land. This

464
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: is the field. Us sound to something. This isn't feel good?

465
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,360
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this feels so good. This is not reunited,

466
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: and it feels so good. The last time we saw

467
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch, you guys would disrespecting him to cost you

468
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. You can't tell me how I feel.

469
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 1: I feel great and I'm one at number two. The

470
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 1: last time we saw mars Shawn Lynch, we were kicking

471
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: his ass in London. Last year he played for the Readers.

472
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: The last of the last game, mich got him laughing

473
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 1: at myself. Now, the last time Mars Shawn played a

474
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: football game was October of two thousand and eighteen four

475
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 1: the Raiders against the Seahawks in London. And now he's

476
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: a Seahawk. Fourteen months ago or fourteen months later. Listen, man,

477
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: you know what I'm getting kind of freaking tired of

478
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 1: this talk about the Patriot game in the Super Bowl.

479
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 1: First of all, it is four years ago, five years ago.

480
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 1: The second of all, it's not funny. So third of all,

481
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: shut up. You'll never live it down. You still never

00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: fall stuffing because you don't raid. Hello, it's not fair.

484
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,640
Speaker 1: Don't don't don't talk about it. Look angry? Was there

485
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 1: no ups? Try come down there and kick your ass. Listen,

00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 1: So just to just to be fair, you're gonna be

00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: ninety years old a rocking chair. I still be pissed off,

00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: and someone's gonna come to you and go, why can't

489
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,439
Speaker 1: I give the ball to Marshawn. Rob is gonna come

00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: up to me when I'm ninety with his walker and

00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 1: gons on. The Mets will still suck. Hey, you should

496
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,400
Speaker 1: be thankful we built your team with that big trade

497
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 1: for Robinson Canoe. Unbelievable, Mike, you know what, happy hot

498
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: God in Christmas. I'm fired up from Marshawn. The Seahawks

499
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: fans are fired up from Marshawn. I don't care what

500
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: Rob says. It is the freaking grinch over there. We're

501
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 1: excited about it. And they got Robert Turban back. Okay, look,

502
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: they lost pro sites, they lost Carson. It's week seventeen.

503
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: What are they supposed to do. There's nobody out there,

504
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: rob There's nobody else. I just don't understand it. There's

505
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 1: nobody on this planet understand What else would you have done?

506
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 1: I'm asking you a question. Who else would you have signed?

507
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: I would have got a young kid with some young legs,

508
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: somebody else rather than go back. I can't give you

509
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,120
Speaker 1: a name. I'm not a stone. I'm not a stone.

510
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: I don't have names in front of me. But if

511
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,120
Speaker 1: I do, know that the last time we saw Marshawn Lynch,

512
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: it wasn't a pretty picture. He was getting out jellow

513
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 1: shine on the parking lot. That's right. But I'm telling

514
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 1: you remember this when when he fumbles the ball at

515
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: the gold line and you guys lose the game, remember this,

516
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 1: because you guys went back. I'm gonna get your number.

517
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get your cell phone number. I'm gonna get

518
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: your home number. I'm gonna tack you. I'm gonna bother

519
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: you all night. When Marshawn scores to be all right,

520
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: hate now lastly, Softy. Obviously, this has not been a

521
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,359
Speaker 1: great last three weeks for US Seattle. The loss of

522
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: the Rams, you sweep by the Panthers, that incredibly shocking

523
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: loss of the Cardinals. Is this stuff that Marshawn Lynch

524
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 1: can fixes? This is as simple as hey, it's the

525
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 1: end of the season. Duldrums are there more worked there

526
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 1: for Seattle? No, they got them. They've They've got some

527
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: missues man, and all the issues are injury wise. I mean,

528
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 1: Clownie has banged up, Shaquille Griffin's herd. Klondry Diggs has

529
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,479
Speaker 1: been a great pick up for the Lions. Why they

530
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: gave him up? I got no idea, Mike, you potties

531
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 1: her Dwayne Brown as her Justin Brad has heard. Will

532
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 1: Digley has hurt. Now it's Chris Carson. Now it's c

533
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,640
Speaker 1: J Prosie, Tyle Lockett and DK Metcalf After the fact

534
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: of the third quarter on Sunday had four targets and

535
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: zero catches. So that leads me to believe that maybe

536
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's hurt. All. I think a lot of problems

537
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,880
Speaker 1: right now on this football team. But mars Shawn Lynch

538
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 1: came in coming back a one of them, all right,

539
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: he'll do wee can do on Sunday. But as long

540
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: as that offensive line blocks the way they blocked in

541
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,880
Speaker 1: the game against the Cardinals last weekend, it may not matter.

542
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 1: If the freaking Pope was back there running the ball,

543
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,239
Speaker 1: the Sea football team might be in trouble. Softy One

544
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: last day from Mattie Fast, one last thing. The Seattle

545
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 1: would have been better off bringing back to Sonic before

00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:06,919
Speaker 1: Washawn Lynch, Oh wow, well, when Rob, when you make

Speaker 1: at seven o'clock in the morning and then you've berated him.

565
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: We're like five, five or seven minutes. If I was phenomenal,

566
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: but I mean, don't get me wrong, it was great,

567
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: But I mean, boy, he's gonna have the worst day

568
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: every Now people in Seattle and listen saying my Twitter

569
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: will blow up. They'll be attacking me for ripping into Seattle.

00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: Sorry about that Twitter at? How about a Fresca rob

571
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: at Rob Parker fs one. So from Marshawn Lynch to

572
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: the other big story that is broken this morning, and

573
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: this involves Jets head coach Adam Gates. Yes, because it

574
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: goes from Softy having a bad morning to now me

575
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: having a bad morning. But hey, this is what I'm

576
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: here for you because if your sports team is not

577
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: playing well and you're a little upset, hey realize you

578
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: Jason's got it worse because he roots for the Jets.

579
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: Maniche Made, a Jets insider, put this column out New

580
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: York Daily News earlier this morning, starting to gain a

581
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: lot of traction. The Daily News has learned that Adam

582
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: Gase has privately told people for months that the Jets

583
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: fan base have never mattered to him. In fact, his

584
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: go to line since taking over a few months ago

585
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 1: has been I'm rich as blank. He has repeatedly said

586
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: it to anyone that mentions the avalanche of criticism this year.

587
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: It's become his defense mechanism. The quote is he's an

588
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: insecure guy, a Jet source told The Daily News. So

589
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: this is now your head coach, who, according to Manische

590
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: maida who has been a Jets insider for years and

591
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 1: years and years and years, you are telling the fan

592
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: base now, I don't care about you. I only care

593
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: about myself, and not only that, but I don't care

594
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 1: about you so much that if you want to complain

595
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 1: about something, I'm rich as blank and you're not. Tell

596
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: me when either of those strategies has worked for anyone.

597
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 1: Taking on a fan base or pulling the old look

598
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: at all the money I have? That never plays well.

599
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: It's like he wants to write his ticket Adam New York,

600
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: which hey, I wouldn't. I would be okay with because

601
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: I think the guy's a bad coach. He's been a

602
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: bad coach. He doesn't learn from his mistakes, he doesn't

603
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 1: make in game adjustments. He hasn't taken the Jets the

604
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 1: next level offensively. Why are they playing so well? They

605
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: are behind Greg Williams and the defense, and how well

606
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: the defense is playing. Adam Gase is just a bad

607
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 1: head coach. He's someone that didn't learn his lessons from

608
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: Miami because he jumped right from getting fine in Miami

609
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: getting a job with the Jets. So when you don't

610
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 1: have any time to have to have any self reflection,

611
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: you're not gonna learn the lesson. You're gonna still think

612
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: what I'm doing and so doing it the right way.

613
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: All you did was get dropped in Miami. And now

614
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: you come to the Jets and think, I'm gonna do

615
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: things my way. I'm gonna antagonize a fan base and

616
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to and this report out now it's already

617
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 1: the fan base can't stand them, right, But he's got

618
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: a little bit of support inside the building because Christopher

619
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 1: Johnson's already said he's a good man. The acting owner

620
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: is giving him backing right now, says he's coming back

621
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: next year. I don't know if that can be the

622
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: case anymore. So I don't know if this is a

623
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: Christmas present for me or this is just a reminder that, Hey,

624
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 1: this is this guy, this is who Adam Gase is,

625
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 1: and you're gonna be stuck with him for at least

626
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 1: another year. He's not made the Jets better. If anything,

627
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: he's made them divisive. You know, this is the second

628
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: report in the past few days that have said that

629
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 1: the team is divided and Greg Williams is the real leader.

630
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: He's the leader of the defense. They all gravitate towards him,

631
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 1: and Adam Gase is a glorified oc. In fact, more

632
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: of Miniche made his column says that he doesn't even

633
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: pay attention to defense in practice, that when the defense

634
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: is practicing, he's got his back turned talking to the offense,

635
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 1: and there's times he's walked off the field while the

636
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: defense is still practicing. So you tell me, is that

637
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: a head coached or is that just the guy that

638
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 1: wants to do his thing his way, And that's never

639
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: gonna work. It's never gonna work, and it has never

640
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: worked in the NFL, which is surprising. But but this

641
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,959
Speaker 1: whole thing about that he's Richard's blank to the fans,

642
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 1: and the fans don't matter. That's a losing proposition. I

643
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 1: always say this, two things you take on if you're

644
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: a professional athlete or a coach or something, and both

645
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 1: are losing propositions. One is to go against the fans,

646
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: and one is to go against the media, because you

647
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 1: will not win in the long run. You might have

648
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: your day in the sunshine and you feel good, you know,

649
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 1: for a day or so, especially in New York especially,

650
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 1: you know that, And uh, they're aggressive reporters, they did

651
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 1: you know it's this is not a one paper town

652
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: where you get to control the narrative or whatever. People

653
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: aren't afraid of of anybody who comes to town because

654
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 1: they've been there way longer and they know the landscape.

655
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: So you're right, So this is this is a bad,

656
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 1: bad thing. And uh, I don't know. I'll tell you

657
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna they'll be backlash from fans in New York. Oh,

658
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna dig into his tax returns down. Let's go

659
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:47,479
Speaker 1: all the way to the Supreme Court. Let's get at

660
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: him gains his tax turn. See how rich as blank

661
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,239
Speaker 1: he is. He might have to move out of New

662
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: York like Trump. I mean this is Look when I

663
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: say the guy's a bad coach, you look at his record,

664
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: and he's just as like to lose a football game

665
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 1: by double digits as he is to win a football game.

666
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: Right that that's his record. I mean that that's a

667
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 1: damning stat right there, that he's got as many wins

668
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: as he has double digit losses, Which tells me this

669
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: is a coach that can adjust during a game, and

670
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: he doesn't. And it's it's his way or the highway.

671
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 1: And there's nothing more evident than the fact that he

672
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: didn't want Levi on Bell because running backs aren't as

673
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,879
Speaker 1: important as offensive scheme. But you know what the best

674
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 1: head coaches do. They adjust their personnel and their strategy

675
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 1: to who they have. You're telling me this is the

676
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: best running back in the NFL, and I'm just not

677
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,479
Speaker 1: gonna use the most running backs don't work in my office.

678
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: It doesn't it doesn't make any sense. Look, maybe I'm

679
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 1: beout four hundred touches. In Pittsburgh, he was a most

680
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: versatile back right, could catch from the backfield, could run

681
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: the football. Are you kidding me? It's ridiculous, This is

682
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: a This is the I would say he is the

683
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 1: poster boy for what happens when you give an offensive

684
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 1: coordinator or a head coaching job and he's not ready

685
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 1: for it. Right, because you look at the difference between

686
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: him and a guy like Kyle Shanahan. Right, Kyle Shanahan,

687
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: same type of deal. Right, Shanahan gaze Sean McVay, all

688
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: the offensive geniuses. Right now you're seeing Kyle Shanahan separate himself.

689
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: Why because he does what Sean McVay doesn't do, and

690
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,439
Speaker 1: what Adam Gase doesn't do. Adam Gase ignores Levion Bell

691
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: for many long stretches. You have had Sean McVay ignore

692
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley, right, and now both these teams are struggling.

693
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:27,800
Speaker 1: What does Kyle Shanahan do? You know he wants to

694
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: throw the football around because any young wonder canned offensive coordinator,

695
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 1: head coach, I'm not proving the genius I am if

696
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: I'm not throwing the football, right, anybody can run the football.

697
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: But why is Kyle Shanahan's team at the CUSP of

698
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 1: being the number one seed in the NFC because what

699
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,879
Speaker 1: did he do the first nine ten games of the year.

700
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: They ran the football a ton, right, he had three

701
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: good running backs, they built a great defense, and Jimmy

702
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 1: Garoppolo didn't have to do anything. Then what's the con

703
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 1: to the point in the year where Okay, now we

704
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: needs stuff out of our quarterback. Garoppolos throwing for three

705
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 1: hund yards a week, and now the forty nine ers

706
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 1: are loaded and rolling through the schedule. There's not a

707
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 1: game they can't win. They can win a defensive struggle,

708
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: they can win by running the football, they can win

709
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 1: a shootout. This is the type this outside of Bill Belichick,

710
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,439
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan's the best head coach in the National Football League.

711
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: And because he is realized, I am now have to

712
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 1: adjust my game plan and what I like to do

713
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: around my personnel, and other guys don't do it. And

714
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 1: this is Adam Case. This is why Adam Case is

715
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:28,400
Speaker 1: a bad head coach. And now I'm probably gonna be

716
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 1: stuck with the guy. And if I don't get stuck

717
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: with him and the Jets fire him. Okay, now we're

718
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 1: starting over again, and we're hiring somebody else who may

719
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: not like Lavon, who may not like other guys, and

720
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: so it's it's like, I don't know if it's Christmas

721
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 1: Eve for me or not. I don't know. I don't

722
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: know how to think. I don't know if this is

723
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: a present or like I'm gonna be visited by the

724
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: ghost of Christmas future type didn't tell me. Here's all

Speaker 1: for the next fifty years. I don't know what kind

728
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,280
Speaker 1: of present this is. Rob. It's a good present because

729
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 1: it could it could expedite his exit from New York.

730
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 1: It could twitter at. How about a Fresco rob at

Speaker 1: iced tea? Oh, diet ic t all right, very no,

777
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 1: No one looks like it in this little container. It

778
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 1: does look it does look like kool aid. Oh, oh yeah,

779
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 1: I'm drinking Oh Aaron Rodgers kool aid. And that was somebody,

780
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: that's what you said over there. I think I was

781
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: drinking the kirk Cousins coool You were drinking kirk Cousins

782
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,800
Speaker 1: kool aid. A matter of fact, that stuff poisoned you.

783
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 1: I'm wearing the kirk Cousins kool aid right now. Unbelievable.

784
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: We'll have more on that game coming up in about

785
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. So tomorrow is the big Clippers Lakers rematch.

786
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 1: We had opening night, Clippers win, Lakers go on a

787
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 1: big run. Now they've lost three in a row, and

788
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 1: hopefully we're gonna get Kawhi Leonard and Anthony Davis and

789
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: Lebron James playing in this game. Officially, Lebron and Ad

790
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: are questionable for this, but I gotta think they're gonna play.

791
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: Number one, it's Christmas Day and these guys don't want

792
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 1: to miss that game. And number two, the Lakers have

793
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: lost three in a row and this is their first

794
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 1: real adversity they're facing over the course of the season. Oh,

795
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: I thought they didn't want to win lose two in

796
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: a row more than two in a row this season.

797
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:37,800
Speaker 1: Remember they put that out there. You don't want to

798
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 1: but you know it happens once there. That was ridiculous. Well,

799
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 1: because look, the Lakers know, and this is why they

800
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 1: are where they are right now, is they've had to

801
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 1: have a great start to the regular season because it's

802
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: been so many bad seasons in a row for the Lakers.

803
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 1: Now here comes Anthony Davis. You can't sell. Hey, we

804
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:58,520
Speaker 1: need some time. You know, we need some time. This

805
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 1: team needs time to gel, because that was what was

806
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 1: last year, was supposed to be when it was when

807
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 1: it was Lebron coming in. Okay, we need some time

808
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: to gel. Everything is five weight, nothing work, nothing gelled.

809
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: So if you had a slow start this year, things

810
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: would have gotten off the rails really quickly. The media,

811
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,240
Speaker 1: the fans would have been up standpoint, that would have happened.

812
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 1: So the Lakers, they were under more pressure to have

813
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 1: a great start and they have. They've had a phenomenal start. Yeah,

814
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 1: they lost there in a row, but it's like, okay,

815
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: it really just manufacturing something here, because any team in

816
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,919
Speaker 1: the league would would trade records with the Lakers. They've

817
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 1: played that well. But because they've had to will they

818
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 1: come back to earth a little bit here? Yeah, But

819
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 1: because this beginning of the year is we got to

820
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 1: get out big. Now we're out big at the top

821
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 1: of the Western Conference. Everything is okay. You'll see them

822
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: come back to the normal a little bit. But there's

823
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: still gonna be a team that wins five or six

824
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 1: games in a row, loses a game. They win five

825
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 1: or six, they lose one. Everybody's gonna have a losing

826
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 1: streak at some point during the season. This is the

827
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 1: Lakers losing streak. Now, I get it. I just wonder

828
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 1: as we go forward. I'm not surprised they got off

829
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 1: to a good start at early on. Early on, they

830
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 1: were just there were cupcakes everywhere. I mean, I had

831
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 1: a tooth thing just by looking at the schedule. But

832
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 1: then they went on a road trip against some good

833
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 1: teams and they won some games, so people said, Okay,

834
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: it's a great start for him, much better than I

835
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 1: ever could have expected. Obviously, But because there were twenty

836
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: four and four when they met Milwaukee, they both had

837
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 1: the best record, that was the big showdown. Milwaukee kind

838
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 1: of did their thing to the Lakers. So now I'm

839
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 1: looking I picked the Clippers before the season started. I

840
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 1: liked them long term, you know what I mean, you

841
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,840
Speaker 1: don't have to have the best record. In fact, teams

842
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,840
Speaker 1: that have the best record don't automatically win championships. It

843
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: just it doesn't. It doesn't equate because because it's about

844
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,360
Speaker 1: how you're playing. It's not how you start, it's how

845
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 1: you finish. And a lot of people don't want to

846
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 1: hear that, but it really matters how you're playing going

847
00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:53,760
Speaker 1: into the playoffs, and it can make a big difference.

848
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,799
Speaker 1: Winning in November and December just nearly as important as

849
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 1: as later on in the year. But still, this will

850
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,400
Speaker 1: be interesting because the Lakers lost to the Clippers in

851
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 1: Game one of the season, and they lost to Milwaukee.

852
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,360
Speaker 1: So to me, those are the two teams that are

853
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: in their way, Clippers at Milwaukee, and they lost to

854
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,759
Speaker 1: both of them. So as we move forward, this Clippers game,

855
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 1: even though it's considered a Lakers home game, right they

856
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,240
Speaker 1: share the building, the Staples Center, this will be interesting

857
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: just to see Howard Howard shakes out. And I'll say

858
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 1: to you, if the Clippers win again, remember Paul George

859
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 1: didn't play in Game one. If the Clippers win, what

860
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 1: would this say to you if the Clippers win and

861
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 1: the Lakers have their full squad, and this is anything

862
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 1: to you. It says to me, what's gonna happen inevitably

863
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,719
Speaker 1: with the Lakers. So this might move up the time

864
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 1: process on this bit. I picked the Clippers to beginning

865
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: here because Clippers have a better team. Clippers are better.

866
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: They were just deeper. They needed to start to come in,

867
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 1: and they got and they got two to come in.

868
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,360
Speaker 1: They plopped right in. They have a great bench. You

869
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 1: count on lou Bilames and mantras. How love those. That's

870
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: a dog you want on your team. All right, they

871
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,120
Speaker 1: are loaded. The Clippers are loaded top to bottom the

872
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 1: Lakers and this is this is what it's going to

873
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 1: It's going to illustrate when you see the game tomorrow.

874
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,320
Speaker 1: Just watch if you see some games when Lebron is

875
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: playing and a D is resting, or a D is

876
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 1: playing while Lebron is resting, and you see the guys

877
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,240
Speaker 1: out there when it's it's Anthony Davis and it's Alex

878
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: Caruso and Contavious Calwell Pope and Kyle Kuzma's you know,

879
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: hopefully it's going to be healthy soon. But this team

880
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,839
Speaker 1: is crying for more offense. You need guys that can

881
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:39,840
Speaker 1: be able to fill it up. And when Kuzma is

882
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:42,719
Speaker 1: able to come back at at full hundred percent health,

883
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 1: he'll be that shooter because Lebron and Kuzma have great chemistry.

884
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 1: We saw that last year. Kuzma was Lebron's guy. Kuzma's

885
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,399
Speaker 1: in the spot where Lebron wants him to be, gets

886
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 1: in the shot for threes, gets on the ball on

887
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 1: the wing. But they need another shooter at least maybe two,

888
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 1: because there's nobody that can come off the bench right

889
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:02,320
Speaker 1: now and can score points. If you look at the

890
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,839
Speaker 1: game between the Bucks and the Lakers, Lakers had four

891
00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: points off the bench, four points off the bench, and

892
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: Milwaukee had almost forty. Right this Lakers team is gonna

893
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 1: look so much differently after the deadline than they do

894
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,239
Speaker 1: right now, because right now, it's it's Lebron and a D.

895
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 1: And that's masking a lot of things. Right it's Lebron

896
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 1: playing point guard better than any other point guard in

897
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 1: the NBA. This year, a D played like an MVP candidate,

898
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: and that can broad brush a lot of things. But

899
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,359
Speaker 1: you can you can play poorly for stretches and then

900
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: watch Lebron and a d come in and dominate and

901
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: you wind up winning games. But they're gonna need more

902
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: offers right now. There's nobody else you can count on

903
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 1: for points. Kuzma comes back healthy, that's great, but you

904
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: need at least one, maybe two more guys to be

905
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:43,839
Speaker 1: able to fill it up off the bench that can

906
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 1: give you some offense. Doesn't scare you at all that

907
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,240
Speaker 1: the Lakers have the second oldest team in the NBA,

908
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 1: and where's Dwight Howard and these older guys come, you know,

909
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 1: come April or May. I'm just as they're not. They're

910
00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 1: not playing tons of minutes, so it's not like I'm

911
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:03,000
