00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: Hi, everyone, Welcome to Packers Unscripted from Packers dot Com.

2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 1: I am Mike Spofford sitting next to my trusted colleague

3
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 1: West Hodkowitz. Were coming to you here from our studios

4
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 1: at lambeau Field, fresh off a weekend West that definitely

5
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: put the wild in wild Card. That was some quartet

6
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: of games. The up shot for the Packers, of course,

7
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: is that with the Vikings knocking off the Saints and

8
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: then the Seahawks beating the Eagles, that sets up Seattle

9
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: coming to lambeau Field next Sunday for the divisional round

10
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 1: five pm Central Time. But as far as these four

11
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,919
Speaker 1: wild card games go, where do you want to start? Well,

12
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: first off, I want to start with up shot. I

13
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 1: gotta find a way to work that into my writing.

14
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,279
Speaker 1: I like that up shot. I'm gonna find a way

15
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: to get one of my stories this week. So I

16
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: basically watched every single one of these games, uh for

17
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: you know, basically beginning to end the entire way. My

18
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 1: number one takeaway was that crowd out there that's like, hey, you,

19
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: if you play in the wild card round, you can

20
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 1: build momentum for the playoffs. Those were four ten twelve

21
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: round slug fests in all of those games. If one

22
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: of these teams, whether it be the Texans, Titans, Vikings,

23
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: or Seahawks, end up going on a Super Bowl run,

24
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: my hat goes off to them. But they all I

25
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: thought left a piece of themselves on those fields because

26
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,559
Speaker 1: of how tightly contested, especially the first three were um

27
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: and then certainly the Eagles always being within scoring range

28
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 1: of the Seattle Seahawks. I did say, I just want

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: to put this out there. I'm not trying to pat

30
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: myself on the back. What happened in the Titans game

31
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: is what played out. If you would have told me

32
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: over under on thirty carries for Derrick Henry in that game,

33
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: I would have said over if the Titans were gonna

34
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: have a chance to win this game, they played did

35
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: their strengths, the New England defense that have been so

36
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 1: stout all year long, they just did not have an

37
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: answer for trying to get down within three yards of

38
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, and you know the Patriots, you know,

39
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: get get bounced from the playoffs. I thought the Texans

40
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: showed a lot of adversity and grit to be able

41
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: to push through that game against the Bills, especially coming

42
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: on in the second half the way they came on

43
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: in the Minnesota Vikings. Folks, I know there's a lot

44
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: of Packer fans that you know, some might have been

45
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: cheering for him because they wanted the Saints out of

46
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: the playoffs. The other half might have been cheering against

47
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: him because their Minnesota Vikings. But that team, when Dalvin

48
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: Cook is playing, is a different football team. And he

49
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: was healthy, he was arrested, and he made his presence

50
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: felt against the seat or against the New Orleans Saints

51
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: team that just couldn't get its run game going. Well.

52
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: I think that's the game that obviously interest Packers fans

53
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: the most, is the Vikings going into the super Dome

54
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: in New Orleans. And I said last week, the Vikings

55
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: gave themselves a week off. They gave they took Week

56
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: seventeen when they had nothing to play for. They gave

57
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 1: themselves a chance to regroup and to reset. You said it,

58
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook is back. The other game is back is

59
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: Adam Thealen Because we saw even though he played in

60
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: Week sixteen, the Monday night game against the Packers, Adam

61
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: Theland still wasn't really back to his old self. You

62
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: could tell by the way he was running routes and whatnot,

63
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: and that wide receiver he comes back from the fumble

64
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: on the game's opening possession. Yeah. Absolutely, and then he

65
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: got called for like a very questionable I thought holding

66
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 1: call that wiped out a nice run for the Vikings.

67
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: Things were not looking good for Adam Theland early in

68
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: the game, and then he just made clutch play after

69
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: clutch play as this game evolved, and then he's the

70
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: guy who makes the big catch deep down the field

71
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: in overtime. I thought, what the Vikings showed. I agree

72
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: with you. I think all these teams that won these

73
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: twelve round bouts they had left something of themselves on

74
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: those fields. But I gotta tip my hat to the

75
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: Vikings because Mike Zimmer even said last week, Hey, nobody

76
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: gives us a chance to win this game. And the

77
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: one thing that I thought over anything else that gave

78
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: the Vikings a chance answers that they essentially were taking

79
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: a bye week into the playoffs. They got a chance

80
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: to rest and reset their guys, and I think that

81
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: made a huge difference because they had to withstand a

82
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: big Saints charge in the fourth quarter. They did. The

83
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: game goes to overtime, and then on the opening possession

84
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: of overtime, they didn't let Drew Brees get the ball back.

85
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: So a couple of things here. The first thing, if

86
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna point out that the Titans end up doing

87
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: what I thought they were going to do against the Patriots,

88
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: I have to point out that I was wrong about

89
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: the vikings, and that is that I thought Kirk Cousins,

90
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: coming off of that performance that he had against Green Bay,

91
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 1: he would need to play. He needed to be able

92
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: to get that that tune up fight to be able

93
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: to feel good about himself again. And let's be honest, Mike,

94
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: even if he would have played against the Bears, and

95
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: even if you have played well again, as I said

96
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: in my preamble here, the team is just different when

97
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: Delvin Cook's playing, when Madison is playing in that backfield

98
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 1: is moving the ball the way they are. And that's

99
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: not to say that Kirk Cousins doesn't matter. There were

100
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 1: certain parts of that game him where he made some

101
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 1: pretty clutch throws that that helped them get that win.

102
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: But Delvin Cook is the steam engine that drives this

103
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: team and drives this offense, and I thought that was

104
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: arguably the best performance I've seen from the Vikings defense

105
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: this entire season with how they were able to You know,

106
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: there was some trickeration there that they had to weather

107
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: with Taysom Hill, but you know, as much emphasis and

108
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: I know Taysom Hill is really fun to talk about.

109
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: The New Orleans Saints aren't thirteen and three because of

110
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: here's all the cool stuff that Taysom Hill can do.

111
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: Their thirteen and three because of Michael Thomas, because of

112
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: Drew Brees and Teddy Bridgewater, Uh, you know, and then

113
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: obviously the biggest one being Alvin Kamara. None of that

114
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: was going for them in this game. Thomas had seven

115
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: catches for seventy yards, but wasn't the impact player you've

116
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: really grown accustom to him being. And Alvin Kamara, I

117
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: actually thought that was kind of a disservice that they

118
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: did him by not getting him the ball. More. It's

119
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 1: fun to get Taysom Hill out there. He made some

120
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 1: cool plays, but I think it's some part of that

121
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 1: game they sort of lost what their identity was and

122
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: despite being at them, they couldn't find it. Yeah, that

123
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: I thought Minnesota's defense really was impressive, especially when you

124
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: look at the first half. The Saints go into halftime

125
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: with ten points, but the only significant play they made

126
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: on offense was Taysom Hill throwing the deep pass down

127
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 1: the field to to set up the one touchdown him

128
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: the field goal right and the fumble gave the field

129
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: goal early on where the Vikings defense rose up in

130
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: the red zone to get that to get that stop.

131
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: Drew Brees definitely was was finding some things and finding

132
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: a rhythm in the fourth quarter, but then obviously the

133
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: Vikings made the big play to disrupt that rhythm with

134
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 1: the sack fumble when the Saints had just gotten to

135
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 1: the twenty yard line. They were down three at that point,

136
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: but there was the amount of time on the clock.

137
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 1: You're thinking, boy, they go in and get a touchdown

138
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: here they go up four, and then they really kind

139
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: of turned the screws on Cousin to say you have

140
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 1: to respond. The Vikings get the turn over there, and

141
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: then when the Saints got their last chance, they really

142
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: only had time to get into position to kick the

143
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: field goal and get get it to overtime. So that turnover,

144
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: that red zone turnover by by Breeze, I thought was huge,

145
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: But I have to ask you because it's what everybody's

146
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: talking about. Of course, in the overtime the touchdown passed

147
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: to Kyle Rudolph, it was reviewed very quickly for potential

148
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: offensive past interference on Rudolph pushing off on the defender.

149
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: Would you think I thought he pushed off obviously, and

150
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: he's a bigger say, I mean, you're six ft six,

151
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: six ft five tight end going up against the defensive back.

152
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: You're going to have that advantage. Was it egregious? No?

153
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: But I thought it was a push off. Now that

154
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: all that being said, this everybody holding their breath afterwards

155
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: to see if New York was going to review this.

156
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: We've watched this movie several times now, and I get

157
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: the Superdome was incredulous and they were upset, and they've

158
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: had a lot, They've had three straight years of losing

159
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: on the final play of the game. So to throw

160
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: the garbage, I can't. I can't excuse that. But to

161
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: to be surprised it wasn't called and then it wasn't reviewed,

162
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, we know this by now. One

163
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: thing I'm gonna disagree with. I was watching one of

164
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: the pregame shows, or when it was the postgame show.

165
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: I think it was on Fox, and I think it

166
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: was Jimmy Johnson. If I'm wrong on this, excuse me,

167
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: But Jimmy Johnson or somebody had said, you know, be

168
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: better that the officiating doesn't matter. I actually don't agree

169
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: with that. This game. That's that that that's a tough

170
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: take to swallow. There's a Division One football subdivision teams.

171
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: This isn't Alabama laying a stinker against you know, Louisiana

172
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: Monroe or something like that. All these teams there's You're

173
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,599
Speaker 1: gonna get tightly contested games. There's just not going to

174
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: be blowouts. It's just not the way when you get

175
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: to the very cream of the crop, it's not gonna

176
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: work out that way. The officiating needs to be on

177
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: par with that, and it needs to be officiated the

178
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: way the rules are intended for them to be officiated,

179
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: whether or not they like it or not. That is

180
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: the rules this season, Mike and I have I can't

181
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: tell you any other time in NFL history where I

182
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: can remember an amendment being made to the rule book

183
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: and then in that first season just a total, like

184
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: since the very beginning, just a total ignoring, ignoring of that. Yeah,

185
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: this is what I'll tell you, I don't know if

186
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 1: you've read my inside or Inbox column from this morning yet.

187
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: If you haven't, that's okay. We just got we just

188
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: got to work. Um. But I'm going to reiterate what

189
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 1: I said there because to me, to me, what defined

190
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: the decision is what nobody's really talking about, or at

191
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: least it wasn't part of the explanation from the league.

192
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: And what I mean by that is the Saints defender

193
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: never turned around, never turned his head, was not playing

194
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 1: the ball, was only playing the man. And if you extrapolate,

195
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,839
Speaker 1: you know, look at this from the bigger picture, sinse

196
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: a defender who never turns his head and makes contact

197
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: with the offensive guy some sort of restrictive contact, he's

198
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: going to get the dp I flag every time. Right.

199
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: So I think there's a I think there's a there's

200
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 1: a natural transition here to say, well, we're not going

201
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: to bail out a defensive player who doesn't turn his

202
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: head just because the offensive guy made some contact, right.

203
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: I think if the Saints defender, and I apologize for

204
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: forgetting exactly who it was, but if he turns his

205
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: head in any way and Rudolph shove is into his

206
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: say his shoulder or into his back. Then I think

207
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: there's a there's a decent chance maybe that that offensive

208
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 1: past interference flag falls. But because he had his back

209
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 1: to the play the whole time, he never knew where

210
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: the ball was. I think I think New York just

211
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: said we're not going to bail that guy out. That's

212
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: just that's that's my opinion. Do you think that was

213
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: actually their justification for it? I wonder that. I think

214
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: you make a really good point, and I think it's

215
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: very astute. I think curious that they actually thought that

216
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: within the thirty five seconds wherever that they made that

217
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 1: decision what I I don't I don't know that, and

218
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if I would necessarily speculate that. But

219
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:01,719
Speaker 1: but I think my overall point is that I think obliminally, subconsciously,

220
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: just looking at how the defender was defending the play,

221
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: they're not interested, you know, They're they're they're like, well,

222
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: you know, he he wasn't making the play on the ball,

223
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: you know, So that to me, to me, I think

224
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: that played into the decision, whether whether it was verbalized,

225
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: whether it was actually processed mentally that way in the

226
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: thirty five seconds, as you said, I don't really know,

227
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: but but just based on the way these calls are made,

228
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: I think that was part of I think that's a

229
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: heck of an answer. I think that's a really good

230
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: theory that you have. I really wish somebody would have

231
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 1: told the New York Office, hey, let's go with that,

232
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 1: because there's a real part of it. There's a big

233
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: part of me that still doesn't even believe they thought

234
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: on that level. But no, and and and you and you.

235
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: Maybe you may be absolutely right and I'm not right,

236
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: and I'm not going to I'm not going to disagree

237
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: with that. The other thing I will say because another

238
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 1: one of my initial thoughts right when had happened. Kevin Seaffert,

239
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: who we know from SPN dot com and he was

240
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: a Vikings beat reporter for a long time. He's now

241
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:08,079
Speaker 1: a national writer and he's he's covered these officiating issues

242
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: over the years for ESPN. He's done an outstanding job.

243
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: And I was following his Twitter account yesterday during you know,

244
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: throughout really throughout the weekend with the playoffs, and he

245
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: brought up right after basically as that was going to

246
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: review that in the first two weeks of the season,

247
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: an offensive past interference flag was dropped from New York

248
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: off of a review three times. One of those was

249
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: at Lambeufield Packers against the Vikings. We all know that

250
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: took a touched on away from Minnesota after week two,

251
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: which is when we know everything changed and how they

252
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: were looking at this stuff. An offensive past interference flag

253
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: was dropped from New York once the rest of the season.

254
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 1: So what do you think. I mean, the odds just

255
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: weren't that good to begin with, that they were gonna

256
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: that they were going to overturn that touchdown with offensive

257
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: past interference. And then my additional point is the fact

258
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: that the defender was playing the play the way he

259
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 1: was did not certainly did not increase New Orleans odds

260
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: at all of getting that call. That's that's kind of

261
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 1: where I stand. We'll move because I want to talk

262
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: about Seattle here, but I want to ask you this question.

263
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: Have you ever driven an old car before? I'm an

264
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: old car driver. I've never actually bought a new car.

265
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've ever been through this. Sometimes

266
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: when the check engine light goes on, you bring it

267
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: into the shop. Sometimes you just admit defeat and you're like,

268
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna ride this thing out until it doesn't.

269
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 1: I really believe that's where it got to this season.

270
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: Just let it stay on, get through the year. We'll

271
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: bring it to the shop and try to figure it

272
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 1: out in March. But maybe at this point it's an

273
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: incredible thing that Kevin points out that there would be

274
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: that many because that flag against green Bay or for

275
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: green Bay, that would never right. Exactly, that's the thing.

276
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: It happened three times in the first two weeks of

277
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: the season, and starting Week three through the end of

278
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 1: the regular season, only once did they throw on offensive

279
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: passe in reference flag from New York. So I think

280
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: that's important to keep in mind as far as the

281
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: context of how all this evolved. But the Seattle Seahawks

282
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 1: West are coming to lambeau Field. It will be the

283
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: fourth postseason meeting between the two teams. The Packers won

284
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: the two thousand and three NFC Wild Card Game on

285
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: the Al Harris pick six in overtime. The Packers won

286
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: the two thousand seven NFC Divisional Game, the Snow Globe

287
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: Game with Ryan Grant and the two hundred plus rushing

288
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: yards and three rushing touchdowns, and then of course the

289
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 1: Seahawks won the two thousand fourteen NFC title game and

290
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: overtime with the big fourth quarter comeback. So there's a

291
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: lot of playoff history here between these two teams and

292
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 1: a lot of drama, a lot of bad feelings of course,

293
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: certainly with what happened five years ago, and then you

294
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: throw in the failed Mary from seven years ago and

295
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: everything else that goes along with it. But um, but boy,

296
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: this is uh. It's gonna be one heck of a matchup.

297
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: It's gonna be great, it's gonna be a lot of fun.

298
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: I think there's enough storylines going into this that ultimately

299
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: it's it's gonna really propel this to be in the

300
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: marquee matchup the divisional round of the playoffs, and I'm

301
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 1: excited for it. Kind Of like I said last week,

302
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: with New Orleans and Minnesota, where they sort of became

303
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: honorary division rivals, that's kind of basically where Seattle and

304
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: Green Bay is, uh, in terms of just they've seen

305
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,479
Speaker 1: each other so often over the years, regular season, postseason,

306
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: what what have you? And for I have so much

307
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: respect for John Snyder, Pete Carroll, what they've built in

308
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 1: Seattle and how they've been able to sustain it. So

309
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: much of it reminds me of the Ted Thompson approach.

310
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: I know the front office structure is a little bit

311
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: different than what Green Bays was, but you know, draft

312
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: and develop and when there's holes, fill it in. And

313
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: they did that this year with Jadeveon Clowney coming in

314
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: and you saw the impact he had on that game.

315
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 1: And you know, I think there's a lot of parallels

316
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: you can draw between the way he plays and how

317
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: he's utilizing what the Packers are doing with sa Darius

318
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: Smith right now. But like the very beginning, how it

319
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: always has come down to when the chips are down

320
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: and your top three running backs are injured. They lost

321
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: their tight end that was pretty good early in the season.

322
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: It needs to be back on Russell Wilson, and in

323
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: a game in which both teams were incredibly banged up,

324
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: uh Philadelphia almost historically so goodness, Russell Wilson put the

325
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: game in his hands and they won the game because

326
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 1: of Russell Wilson. Now the last few weeks, so I

327
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: think that's a big supreme challenge for them. But you

328
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: look at it, it's a really interesting dichotomy. They're right

329
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: where Seattle was down all of its running backs. Philadelphia

330
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: was down all of its receivers. You put those two

331
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: teams together, you might have a pretty good skill position.

332
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 1: But they leaned on DK Metcalf, they leaned on Tyler Lockett.

333
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a fantastic matchup here at Lambolefield on Sunday. Yeah.

334
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: I want to ask you a couple of other questions

335
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: with regards to that Eagles Seahawks game in just a minute.

336
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: But select Cousin Subs locations are now offering delivery. Whether

337

339
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: Cousin Subs, we believe in better. Okay, the clowney hit, Yeah,

340
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: what do you think? I didn't like it? I see

341
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: why it wasn't hauled. Um. The reason I didn't like

342
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 1: it is I think there's a I understood the poor

343
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: report in that Wins didn't give himself up, but there's

344
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 1: still certain protections that you are allowed as a runner,

345
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 1: regardless of what your position is, and I don't feel

346
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: like he properly received those on that play. I can't

347
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: get into jadeveon Clowney's head. I don't know why he

348
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 1: really high to the body. I get the idea that

349
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 1: he had to make sure that that guy was down,

350
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: but Carson Wentz was fairly defenseless at that point in time.

351
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 1: It sounds like it was a concussion. It could have

352
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: been much worse with where his face mask hit. You

353
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: think about the cervical issues that players have had in

354
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: this league. I did not like it. Um I thought

355
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: it was it's a bang bang play. Yeah it is.

356
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 1: It's it's it's a bang bang play. What I didn't

357
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: like about it at all was that when you look

358
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 1: at it, and I realized when you see it in

359
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: slow motion, you know, everything is magnified. But it just

360
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 1: it looked like Clowney was com leading with the helmet.

361
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 1: There was There was nothing as far as reaching out

362
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: with the arms to try to make a grab or

363
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: lowering the shoulder to make a hit. It was nothing

364
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: like that. It was all. It was all about the helmet,

365
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 1: and that's exactly the type of hit that they're supposed

366
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: to be legislating out of out of the game. And unfortunately,

367
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: UM I hope, certainly hope Carson Wentz is going to

368
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: be okay, But unfortunately that hit had a major impact

369
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 1: on a playoff game. Yeah, in a court of law,

370
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: I think you can make the argument that Clowney was

371
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: trying to get a shoulder in there. But even let's

372
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: say that that is the best case scenario and all this,

373
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: I still don't like hitting a player that high on

374
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 1: his body when he's compromised in that position. I just

375
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: think there's so many other ways that you could approach

376
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: that you could have tried with the angle that he

377
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 1: took on him. You could have went over his body.

378
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: You could have just tried to lead with the hands.

379
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: But the facts as they are, it did not look good.

380
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 1: It looked like a helmet leading another guy's helmet directly

381
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: into the turf. In two thousand nineteen, that's just not

382
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: going to play again. You know, I'll sit here and

383
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 1: I'll criticize officiating and that one. You gotta see it

384
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: because it's there and then it's over and there's no

385
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: replay of it. So obviously they felt like it was

386
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: just a a you know, a normal play. Wentz gets

387
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: back up, if he stays down, maybe things get affected

388
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: a little bit, but yeah, not not a good look.

389
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 1: And um, yeah, it was, in my opinion, a regrettable

390
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: moment of that football. Otherwise really good football game. Yeah. Well,

391
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: I'll reiterate what I've been saying for years that if

392
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: the league had just decided to make all these safety

393
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 1: rules reviewable by replay, we could have a little bit

394
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,719
Speaker 1: more I think, just decisions that are made on on

395
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 1: these type because you, like you just said, they have

396
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: to call it, they have to call it in real time.

397
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: It's a bang bang play. I get it. It's not

398
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: easy to do. I'm not saying that it's an easy

399
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: call to make on replay. I think you get a

400
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: little bit better look at exactly what happened. But the

401
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,959
Speaker 1: league has never shown any interest in in actually reviewing

402
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 1: any of the safety Yeah, and I mean that's one

403
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 1: of the things I think the NFL and a lot

404
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 1: of professional leagues are struggling with its entertainment. Yeah, well,

405
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: with with you obviously with Clowney. As we've been discussing

406
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: here the hit aside. And this is taking nothing away

407
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: from Bobby Wagner and kJ Wright and whatever, but if

408
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,400
Speaker 1: you're going to put a bull's eye on somebody from

409
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,360
Speaker 1: the Packers offensive perspective, that you gotta get blocked. I mean,

410
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 1: comes Sunday afternoon, Sunday evening at lambeau Field. Jadeveon Clowney

411
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: is the guy who can just wreck your game. I

412
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: mean the Seahawks, in my opinion, they are They are

413
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: in this position primarily because of what Jadeveon Clowney did

414
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 1: in San Francisco and that Monday night game that was

415
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,479
Speaker 1: such a huge win for Seattle that set them up

416
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 1: to be in this position in the first place. And uh,

417
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: Clowney is going to be a big topic of conversation

418
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: throughout this week. I can't really figure out with Seattle

419
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,360
Speaker 1: why they've never really been able to like quote unquote

420
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,120
Speaker 1: draft pass rushers like edge rushers. Yeah, they always get

421
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,120
Speaker 1: them from they always get them from other places. John

422
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 1: Snyder has probably done as well of a job as

423
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: anyone over the last decade of finding edge rushers, often

424
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,239
Speaker 1: at a modest price, that they bring in and make

425
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,360
Speaker 1: an impact in this defense. And Clowney is the most

426
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: recent one of that and certainly I think earning himself

427
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: a lot of money this offseason. Uh. The other thing too,

428
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: I just want to put this out there because I

429
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: don't know if you saw the postgame comments, but man,

430
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: Josh McCown. I mean, if you ever Josh McCown's career

431
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: here and the next whenever it ends, maybe it's this offseason,

432
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 1: Josh McCown will not go down as the most talented

433
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,679
Speaker 1: quarterback in NFL history. But man, oh man, if that

434
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 1: guy hasn't one gotten every single ounce of ability out

435
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: of him his body in terms of what he's accomplished

436
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 1: and too, I don't know, it gets thrown around so much,

437
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: and it's such a big cliche of oh, they wanted

438
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 1: more and how much do you? I don't know if

439
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: I've ever seen anyone who wants it more than Josh McCown.

440
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: His mentality, his approach, um, I mean, he's out there

441
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: just completely spent after that game, in a game in

442
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 1: which he started on the sidelines, and as they mentioned,

443
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: even during the and he was limping around on one

444
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 1: leg there in the fourth quarter too. I'm not sure

445
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: exactly what he was dealing with, and they did clearly

446
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: trying He's trying to scramble and get away from pass

447
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: rushers and he wasn't even and he's forty years old

448
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: on top of all that, and it's Sudfield was inactive,

449
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 1: so I mean he was the quarterback from that point on.

450
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 1: It was tough watching him scramble out there of just

451
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 1: a lot of fun to watch. He tried to make

452
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: that thing happen. Unfortunately for the Eagles, much like the

453
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: first batch, they just couldn't get in the end zone.

454
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: And that's gonna be the challenge for Green Bay next

455
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: week is You're probably gonna be able of intervals where

456
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 1: you get yards on Seattle, but can you finish it?

457
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,679
Speaker 1: Can you be that top ranked red zone offense that

458
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,640
Speaker 1: they've been all season? Yeah? Well, we'll be talking about

459
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: a lot of these matchups, a lot of these statistics

460
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: and everything that will play into this game as the

461
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,439
Speaker 1: week goes along, because we got a lot of shows
