Mark Sessler, Chris 23 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: Westling and Greg Rosen thought, what is up? Boys? Hey, Dan, 24 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: Sunday Night Shoe Week eight? Whoa we a lot of 25 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,759 Speaker 1: football to talk about, boys. I know you're excited, Mark, 26 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: I am excited. I think this is a special time 27 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: of year, getting through the bulk of Week eight games 28 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: and writing too week nine. The special time of year 29 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: is getting through the bulk the weekend. I mean, you 30 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: know sometimes when you open the show, I have like 31 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: it just flows out of me what I want to say. 32 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: That time was the opposite. I had no idea why. 33 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: I just made that correct. You give it a shot. 34 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: Last Wembley game of the year. So it's kind of 35 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: good to get that six already wake up out of 36 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: the way. But it was another another solid day. Well 37 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: convinced everyone in the room woke up at six thirty. 38 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 1: But yeah, I certainly did not. I remember that there 39 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: was a London game about nine one Pacific time. On 40 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: my way to the office, I was like, oh, all right, 41 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to check that one out. On the 42 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: old game passer I was involved in Shenanigans in the 43 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: old Juser's garage last night until about eleven o'clock, so 44 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: I wasn't getting up at six thirty. We watched the 45 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: baseball We watched um a wretched stand up special that 46 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: we had a bail on. We had a parachute out 47 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: of it, probably watched each other drink multiple glasses of 48 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: Tito's mixed with something else perhaps, and then uh, we 49 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: had a Beyonce video of viewing party with it wasn't 50 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: just me and West or some ladies in the garage 51 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: as well. So it was a nice, nice Saturday night. 52 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: I learned who um Sean Carter is. Check my Instagram 53 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: at Dan dot Hansas if you want to hear West 54 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: actually learning. Uh that jay Z has the name that 55 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: is not Jay Why did you go dot between Dan 56 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: Hansens has that already used by someone else? I don't know. 57 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: I don't remember. It seems like an odd choice, but 58 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: I don't remember what else he got over there, Mark, No, 59 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: I got nothing else. Just that that kind of stuff 60 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: that stood out to me. It's a very odd strategic move. 61 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: Al Right, a lot of games to get to, but 62 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: why don't we start? There's only one undefeated team in 63 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: the NFL entering Week eight, and they got another test 64 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: and they passed. I'm from a yard deep in the end. 65 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: So all thet task marks coming up. Fielding's Montgomery and 66 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: he's barreled down here the twenty yards line ball and 67 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: they have it. It's as Angelo's football got the twenty 68 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: yards line of Green Bear tie. Montgomery turns it over. 69 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: Oh you hear it in the voice of Larry McCarron 70 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: and Wayne Lara Vie of the Packers radio network, despair. 71 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and the Packers were all set up for 72 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: some more late game magic, but time Montgomery's kickoff return 73 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: fumble with two minutes to play cost Green Bay of 74 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: the ball and the game. The Rams forced the huge 75 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: turnover held on for win at cal Seum a Colisee 76 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: and pack the Cheeseheads Los Angeles reaches the midpoint of 77 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: its schedule at eight. No, West Rogers didn't get his shot. 78 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: This game was like a an Emmy Award winning TV 79 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 1: show at the height of its powers, with all of 80 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: the leading characters, all of the iconic characters nailing their parts. 81 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and DeVante Adams for the Packers. Clay Matthews 82 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: and Blake Martinez on defense, Mike Daniels and then they're 83 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: rolling this whole game. Todd Gurley, it feels like the 84 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: Rams jumped on his back. He gave them a jewel. 85 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: Johnny Hecker, possibly the best punter in history, gave them 86 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: a huge jewel. Aaron donald Sacks, Robert Woods continues to 87 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 1: make plays every week. This game was living up to it, 88 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: and then, as usual, Bones Fossil Specialty Games Crew swings 89 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: the game in its favor and is the decisive We 90 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: didn't get are like Aaron Rodgers moment because of the 91 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: Rams special teams and because time Montgom refumbled with the 92 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: game on online. I thought another star in this game, 93 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: of this drama that you're discussing was Mike Petton out 94 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: of the gate, Yes, whose defensive scheme absolutely was working 95 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: on third down. Right, if you thought that you could 96 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: get the Rams to open with five punts, you would 97 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: like your chances with Aaron Rodgers's your quarterback. They still 98 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: wind up scoring twenty nine points. Right, It's a it's 99 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: a reminder how difficult it is to beat the Rams 100 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: because there's so many good things we want to talk 101 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: about in this game. In terms of how they got 102 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: pressure on golf. The throws that Rogers bad. And you 103 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: look up at the end of the game and the 104 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: Rams had it for seventy five plays and the Packers 105 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: had it for fifty two. They had more, you know, 106 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: fifty or sixty more yards. Todd Gurley is the closer 107 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: in the NFL. And this is not the first game 108 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: that Todd Gurley has helped to close out, not just 109 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: on the go ahead field goal drive, but after they 110 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: get the ball back, to put the ball inside the 111 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: five yard line and make sure there's no chance for 112 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers magic. He is the number one closer in 113 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: the NFL, along with that offensive line, and it's like 114 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: you have to do everything perfect to beat them. You 115 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: look at Golf and like he he got hit today, 116 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: what was it, four sacks if not more, hit almost 117 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: twenty times. His final line is three hundred yards, three touchdowns, 118 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: no picks. You just can't see on the from the 119 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 1: box score that anything here went anything but right for 120 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: the Rams going back to West and it was well 121 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: put that it was, you know, a TV show at 122 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: the height of its powers. Mount Gary fumbling that ball 123 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 1: was like loving you know, fifty minutes of an hour 124 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 1: long episode and then like the cable cuts it was 125 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: the Seinfeld finale. Yeah, that's I was gonna say it 126 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: was the sel finale. It was it was like we 127 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: tuned him for this. Well, you had mentioned where where 128 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: is time Montgomery in this game? And then he makes 129 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: the biggest play. He was out of the running back 130 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: rotation and they still should be given the ball to 131 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: Aaron Jones more often, but but there wasn't much money. 132 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: Was a different example, because the Seinfeld finale was completely lucky, 133 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: so that would have been if the game really wasn't good. 134 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: This was almost like the Sopranos finale, where everything else 135 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: was building up nicely, and then right when it cuts 136 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: at the diner to end, you're like, wait, wait what else? 137 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: There's gotta be more. You're expecting this amazing ending, and 138 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: and it does a little bit. And this Sean McVeigh 139 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: has got the horse shoe with him this season because 140 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,679 Speaker 1: I did not like his decision to run the ball 141 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,239 Speaker 1: um and take the field goal to go ahead field 142 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: goal as opposed to being aggressive and trying to win 143 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: the game. Given basically you're asking your defense to stop 144 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers uh in those last two minutes. And I 145 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: get that you respect your defense. It is one of 146 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: the best units in the league. But Rogers has been 147 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: killing teams his whole career. Like that, I feel like 148 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: that the special teams kind of bailed out McVeigh, who 149 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: got a conservative, which surprised me. That is a fair criticism, 150 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: but I loved when the Packers are up tend to 151 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: nothing controlling the game. The Rams can't do anything over 152 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: and over and over again on third down, so they 153 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: have a fake punt and it gives it just gives 154 00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: the team a Joel And I don't know how many 155 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: you just do that, but they know they have the 156 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: best special teams going right, and then the pitting the 157 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: ball on the one yard line former Packers Sam Shields 158 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: getting Hecker's punt to set up a safety. It's it's cliche, 159 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: but all facets really do contribute for the Rams, not 160 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,119 Speaker 1: just special teams, defense, offense, but every like position group 161 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: you can see making an impact. Even on a day 162 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: where they missed Cooper Cup, they still are getting production 163 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: from Josh Reynolds, from Gerald Everett making a player or two. 164 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: It's like it's just such a deep team and I 165 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: think the Packers have to feel better about themselves, but 166 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: their schedules so tough. It's like you can't have too 167 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: many moral victories. You have to start beating these good 168 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: teams that are in the rams. Mean while they get 169 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 1: out of here with a win. You have the Saints, Seahawks, 170 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: and Chiefs over the next three weeks. If you can 171 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: get to your by with three more wins, then you 172 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: could really start talking about undefeated. I would love, by 173 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: the way, and it's it's certainly in the realm of possibility. Although, 174 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: like Greg said, you gotta win some of these games 175 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: Packers to make the playoffs. But this feels like a 176 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 1: divisional playoff rematch possibility right back in the coliseum. They 177 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: they are in New England, Seattle, and Minnesota in three 178 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: of the next four weeks, with a home game against 179 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: Miami in the middle of that. Those are three tough 180 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: road Gotta get some dubs. Put Robert Woods on your 181 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl ballot this year. Do it? You heard West, 182 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 1: Let's move on play action, Wentz running, He's looking, he 183 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: is firing. Did his complete telling the fire breaking the tackle, 184 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: get full of cuts down it is Garden tell us 185 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: Gunn Merrill Reese w i p with the call. Carson 186 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,599 Speaker 1: Wentz three through three touchdown passes, including that tossed the 187 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard, and the Eagles held on for victory over 188 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:50,079 Speaker 1: the sliding Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley Stadium. It concludes the 189 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: three week run London games. UH this season, Greg, the 190 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 1: Eagles haven't done a great job closing out games this season. 191 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 1: On Sunday, they got it, Dug. They did with a 192 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: little he from the Jaguars. The Jaguars had the ball 193 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: down six late in the game. They had been moving 194 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: the ball pretty well in the second half. Blake Blake 195 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: Blake Boarders played well and they had seven short yardage 196 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: plays in a in a in a quick span second 197 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,959 Speaker 1: one second, one second in third one, fourth and one, 198 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: and then the same thing with third and two seconds 199 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: to fourth and two. And they threw on all six. 200 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: On one of them, Boarders ended up taking the ball 201 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: and running with it. He went over for six on 202 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: those throws. And I and I just I'm thinking, kind of, 203 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: the Jaguars are so far from the team that Doug 204 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: Maron wants to be. When you see that that that 205 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: was my big takeaway is he's so afraid of running. 206 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: Carlos Hider yelled in, who had a combined eighteen yards 207 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: on eight carries, that they're throwing out a shotgun seventh 208 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: straight times in a situation like that. And the Eagles 209 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: defense did their job today and they got out of there. 210 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: I thought, if you're the Eagles and you know that 211 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: you're gonna lose your right and left tackle in this 212 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: game early on and have to deal with that, that 213 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: it was one of the more impressive performances in the 214 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: second half to shut down the jack Wars in terms 215 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: of they were the ones that we're able to run 216 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: the ball, and Josh Adams, the rookie, played well. It 217 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: was a bit of a different type of game for 218 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 1: the Eagles and the team that comes out of here 219 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: three and five, since percent of teams that are three 220 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: and five make the playoffs do not. And now the 221 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: need this and the Texans. We we've said the South 222 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: is open, and you know, maybe eight or nine gets 223 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: it and then the culture in it. But the Texans 224 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: ultimately are five and three with an easy schedule of 225 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: their own and coming into their own with a win 226 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: over the Jaguars. So there, it's you can't just count 227 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: on getting the eight or nine wins and getting the playoffs. 228 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: If you're the Jaguars, don't let the Jaguars. Okay, I'll 229 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: lock it up. We're getting hot, maud See Dan and 230 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: I could be on the same team. Sometimes we can 231 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: celebrate together. This is good. Not only that you guys 232 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: both jumped on my previously said one and I freaked 233 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: out jumped off it, and so it was a bad idea. 234 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: Should have just read back shirt joke? What was that? 235 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: What shirt joke? One thing I wanted to point out 236 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: was that even though you look at the box score, 237 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 1: four catches thirty five yards for alshon Jeffrey, he has 238 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: been awesome since he came back from injury, with so 239 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,959 Speaker 1: many key plays, and on two of the key moments 240 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: of this entire game, third and long, he beats Jalen 241 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: Ramsey one on one to keep drives going. And and 242 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: those were two big moments in a game where it 243 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 1: was kind of like you're just asking which quarterback is 244 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: gonna make a better play on their own on third 245 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 1: and long, and of course Carson Wentz is gonna be 246 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,239 Speaker 1: better at that. Speaking of Ramsey, don't let this Jaguars 247 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: defense off the hook. I thought that was the story 248 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: of the game. Blake Bortles brings them back into the 249 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: game and you're hoping for a stop. So you can 250 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 1: see Blake Bortles with the game on the line, and 251 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: you never get that chance because the Jaguars couldn't stop 252 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: the Eagles in the second half. Let's move up. Newton 253 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: fakes to McCaffrey, frowze chipped jumping catch, so on the 254 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: chip ball in the end zone, it's a touchdown McCaffrey 255 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: four times. The heavens just look down on you and 256 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: smile mc nixon Panthers Radio Network with that call. Cam 257 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: Newton completed twenty nine passes, two nineteen and two scores, 258 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: including that very fortunate ricochet touchdown pass to Christian McCaffrey. 259 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: The Panthers take care of the Ravens thirty six to one. 260 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: That is nine straight wins at home for the Panthers. 261 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: We don't usually connect the Panthers with having a massive 262 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: home field advantage, but they are cooking and Charlotte West, 263 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: the Panthers deliver another reminder that they are a beast 264 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: in the West. They are and as Greg has mentioned, 265 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: you can't trust top defenses in this league anymore. The 266 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 1: Ravens had the number one overall defense and number two 267 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: past defense going into this game. They jumped out to 268 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: a seven oh lead, scored on the opening possession, and 269 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 1: then due to a mixture of basically self destruction and 270 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: bad luck, the game was over by halftime. Uh Cam 271 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: Newton looked good. DJ Moore because Tori Smith was injured, 272 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: got a much bigger role in this game, and he 273 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: took over a ninety nine yards scoring drive with chunk 274 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: plays of thirty three and set thirty seven yards and 275 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 1: an eleven eleven yard and around on the same play. 276 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: But this was this was one of the more impressive 277 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: all around wins by a team UM against quality competition. 278 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: So you made a great point, and you're right up 279 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: that sometimes it's lucky or it's it. It smiles on 280 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: a team to have a veteran go out of the 281 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: lineup and have more in this case step in and 282 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: do have a role that he didn't have from previous weeks. Yeah, 283 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: the old saying you're only an injury away from being 284 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: a good team and it's your own injury. Tori Smith 285 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: allowed a better, more explosive player to get in the lineup. 286 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: I remember hearing over the last couple of drafts. You know, Okay, 287 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: here's this idea. We're gonna surround Cam Newton no more 288 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: these Dave gettlman, power forward, lumbering receivers. Let's get a 289 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 1: fast team around him. And I think today was an 290 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: example of you're kind of starting to see that. I 291 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: know Curtis Samuel isn't a huge factor, but he made some. 292 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: He made some. He plays in this game, right, he'll 293 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: make a player two here and there. D J. Moore 294 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: certainly add speed, Christian McCaffrey obviously does. And you're starting 295 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: to see an offense that is more than carrying their share. 296 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: They have room for growth with these young receivers and 297 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: Greg Holson greg Olsen get a little healthier. And there 298 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: don't forget their right and left tackle have been out 299 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: the first half of the year. They might come back 300 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: in the second. We saw this offense explode for one 301 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: answer unanswered points against the Eagles in the fourth quarter 302 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: last week. UH this week, four straight drives in the 303 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: final sixteen minutes of the first half, UH to pour 304 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: it on to make seven. So this offense sometimes you 305 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: get into funks, like any offense. But when it gets rolling. Uh, 306 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: it could change a game very quickly. So the Panthers 307 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: are looking good. In the Ravens, the a f C 308 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: is hard to figure out because, Uh, the Jaguars a 309 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: month ago, everybody said, oh, look out for them, they're 310 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: gonna be in the mix. The Ravens just when you 311 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: start to get confident in them, now the defense takes 312 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: a step back and the offense simply isn't good enough 313 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: to pick up. The slack of the defense is going 314 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: to come down to earth. It does matter scheduling, looking 315 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: at it when the schedule comes out means nothing. But 316 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: it always was on my radar that the a f 317 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: C North got each other, which they eat each other 318 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: up for the first part. Then you get the NFC 319 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: South and they've run into a two game thorn bush. 320 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: They're like a little child that just rode his bike 321 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: into a thorn bush. Because it's like the Saints and 322 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: the Panthers back to back. Now you're four and four. 323 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: Last Sunday morning, you were four and two. Now you're 324 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: four and four. Have to go deal with the Steelers 325 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: next and and they lost like that. Their offensive line 326 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: had Ronnie Stanley going in and out of that game 327 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: and then had a walking buddh On Marshall Yonda went 328 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: in and out of that game, and they already were 329 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: missing a couple of starters. So it's like when you 330 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: have that many injuries at the same position groups, things 331 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: can go wrong, and tangibly it was a factor. Horonics Grasso, 332 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: who is filling in for an injury, missed the block. 333 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: Nice and he missed the block, and Kyle Love, Panthers 334 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: defensive tackle, went unblocked and blew up Alex Collins to 335 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: start to cause a fumble and basically set the Panthers 336 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: up for any as he touchdown. And there were little 337 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: mistakes like this that happened to the Ravens throughout the game. 338 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: Nice interconference conversation, guys, But let's let's move back to 339 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: a full A f C matchup. He snaps it to Huber, 340 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: Huber puts it down. The kick from Randy Bullock is 341 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: on its way. Has just kicked to a thirty seven, 342 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: thirty four win at the Gun. Dan Hard and Dave 343 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 1: Lapham the Bengals Radio Network with the call Randy Bullock, 344 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 1: Big Bone, Randy, he cares not for your love of 345 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,919 Speaker 1: fits magic his forty four yard field goal in the 346 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 1: final play of regulation lifted the Bengals to thirty four 347 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: win over the Tampa Bay Bucks, and since Andy Dawlton 348 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: engineered the game winning drive after Ryan Fitzpatrick replaced an 349 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: ineffective Jameis Winston and brought Tampa Bay back from the 350 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: dead mark. We'll get to the winning team in a moment, 351 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 1: but this Bucks QB drama won't go away. I think 352 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 1: this is the kind of game that potentially alters destinies 353 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: for Tampa Bay under center, because there are now whispers 354 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: out there that Jamis went. They would listen to offers 355 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: for Jamis Winston before the trade deadline. He was dreadful 356 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: in overtime against the Browns last Sunday, they want to 357 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: spite him, and then today through four killer picks, the 358 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 1: final pick six costing them an extra point. I mean, 359 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: if you're my one question from a Dirk Cotter angle 360 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: is why did you need to get to four interceptions 361 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: to replace him? He was totally ineffective. You're in a 362 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 1: tight game and you waited that long to put Fitzpatrick 363 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: back in who we already know that if Fitzpatrick earlier 364 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: in the season, despite one ill contest, played very well 365 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: with this offense. I did see some criticism that it 366 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: made sense the lift Winston at the half dark Cutter, 367 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: of course, was he knew he was gonna be asked 368 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: after the game what the next move was the Bucks. 369 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,239 Speaker 1: Here's what he had to say, Today's not to day. 370 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: I have to decide that, right. I mean, I don't 371 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,360 Speaker 1: have any problem making decisions, and I'll make it when 372 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: it's comes right. But now it's probably not the right 373 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: time to make it. That to me often feels like 374 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,479 Speaker 1: you're gonna sit down with the person who was your 375 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: starter today and have a conversation about putting Fitzpatrick in there. 376 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: It would be very surprising I think if you didn't 377 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: stick with Fitzpatrick because of the way he played when 378 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: he came into the game. I believe they went touched down, 379 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: they went field goal touchdown, punt touchdown, and obviously no 380 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 1: turnovers in that span. So you put up seventeen points 381 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: in a in a quarter, I don't think you're gonna 382 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: come back out that's this is a franchise shifting move. 383 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: Like Mark you alluded to it. If you bench Winston 384 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: for performance issues to put in the thirty five year 385 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 1: old quarterback what is the next move for this organization? 386 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: I mean only because probably the coach won't be there. 387 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 1: Someone can come in and spit whistle Dixie all offseason 388 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,959 Speaker 1: about we're gonna get the real Jamis Winston. But how 389 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: much longer do we need to make a decision on 390 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: Jameis Winston. I don't even want to bury Jamis Winston. 391 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: It's more about Dirk Carter for me, Like does he 392 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: just hate magic? He hates being relevant. Every time Fitzpatrick plays, 393 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 1: the whole nation pays attention. Every time Winston plays, nobody 394 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: watches be because you're not exciting, You're not fun, Your 395 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 1: team isn't his into it, your locker room isn't is 396 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: into it. And this guy made the bonehead decision of 397 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: the year to take Fitzpatrick out of the lineup. Um, 398 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: what about on the Cincinnati side, Mark, what do we see? 399 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: I mean you just listed Greg the fourth quarter drives 400 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 1: for Tampa Bay. I mean the Bengals built a massive 401 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: lead in this. It looked like it was a get 402 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 1: right game after the embarrassment against the Chiefs, and they 403 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,719 Speaker 1: did everything they could to allow Tampa Bay back in 404 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: Their final six drives were punt punt punt, punt, punt, 405 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: and then that field goal by fat Randy Well. But 406 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: four straight touchdowns to start the game. But but they 407 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: that's my point is they SiZ I don't know if 408 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to say, but we should give Andy 409 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: Dalton cells out a photo of Andy Dalton did what 410 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: he needed to do. After the touchdown of two point conversion, 411 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: it seemed like the Cincinnati Bengals shame spiral was about 412 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: to be complete, and he did kind of save the 413 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: day with drive, some passes d J. Green got them 414 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: set up in the bull kick the makeuple fields his 415 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: fourth game winning drive this year in the final minutes. 416 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: But it's also because their defense is putting them in 417 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: position where he has to go do So that's my 418 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: concern with the Bengals. You need to drive, you just 419 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: call it Andy Dalton. Well, he's the modern day one 420 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: thing on Winston those four picks they weren't tipped and 421 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: then oh it's not on Winston. These were There were 422 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: some awful decisions made by can't you give Andy Dalton 423 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: the lovely deserves right now? What I thought we did? 424 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: Just say he's he's the most special ginger quarterback to 425 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: ever play this game for Iget about Jason Garrett. Is 426 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: that true? Who else is in the running? There's not 427 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: a lot. Brandon Weedson, Todd Marino. I think Carson Wentz 428 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: con and Carson Wentz was unbelievable. Parson Palmer is sometimes 429 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: called a redhead. Carson Wentz has reddish He absolutely has 430 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: reddish hair. I don't know if he's a he's but 431 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton's like a raging ginger. And I submit rubenesque 432 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: Randy for Bullock. That Ruben. He's not even big anywhere 433 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: there right as all right, let's move on. We're gonna 434 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: give it off on a shovel pass, Kareem Hunt breaking 435 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: tackles outside the ten hurdles, a Bronco dragging Broncos all 436 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: the way to the end zone, touchdown ch City on 437 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: fourth that inches the Chiefs fire Pasuka on a shovel 438 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: pass to Kareem Hunt. Another Hunt, hurdle of it and 439 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: a great call from Mitch Holness of the Chiefs Radio network, 440 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes through yards and four more touchdowns. He's up 441 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: to twenty six on the year. Sammy Watkins went over 442 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: a hundred two touchdowns and yes, uh, Kareem Hunt once again, 443 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: acrobatic and dynamic. A Chiefs a thirty twenty three win 444 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 1: over the Broncos at Arrowhead. Uh, they sweep the season series. 445 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 1: They are total control of the a f C West 446 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 1: at seven seven and one West. It wasn't as easy 447 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: as usual, but the key the Chiefs keep on with it. 448 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: It's like the Portland Trailblazers trying to beat the Golden 449 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: State Warriors. The talent differential is just too wide. Who 450 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: are you gonna stop on the Chiefs this pick your 451 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: poison offense and they picked Sammy Watkins. The other team did. 452 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins burned them. He had a big game. Kareem 453 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: Hunt had another one of those personal high highlight real 454 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 1: plays where he hurdles a guy, breaks a couple of tackles, 455 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: runs into the end zone. This offense, I mean, they 456 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: ran out to thirty points and then basically just shut 457 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: down for the rest of the way. But that's all 458 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: they needed. And the defense, the pass rush is coming 459 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 1: along nicely. I think d Ford had another three sex 460 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: This guy's having I think he might be first team 461 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: All Pro right now. That outside linebacker Chris Jones had 462 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 1: a sack for a fourth consecutive game, you can run 463 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: on this team. The Broncos, I mean Phillips, Philip Lindsay 464 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 1: looks phenomenal every week. He had another good game. Um, 465 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: but I think that Chief's pass rush, he's really coming 466 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: alive a little bit. Mahomes has twenty six touchdowns. Not 467 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: to pick on Alex Smith, but that that ties Alex 468 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: smith career high Kansas City, which was last year where 469 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: which was Alex Smith's best season, And that's the best 470 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: one to one comparison, because obviously this Chief's team is 471 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: very talented and they figured out some things schematically. But 472 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: the fact that he's done it in half a season, 473 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: it's amazing. It's amazing to think how that move was 474 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 1: considered a little gutsy in the off season when they 475 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: made it, because it was obviously such a clear decision, 476 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: clearly smart. One note on that touchdown total. He joins 477 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning and Tom Brady as the only quarterbacks ever 478 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: to have twenty five touchdowns by mid season. So are 479 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: you less concerned about the defense or is it more 480 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 1: the opponent they played? About the Chief Stephens, I think 481 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: you can still run on them, and um, the secondary 482 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: is still very subpar. I just justin Houston's gonna come 483 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 1: back at some point. De Ford is playing lights out, 484 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 1: Chris Jones is playing well. Those rookies, Briland Sparks had 485 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: another spect sack today. I think there's some talent there 486 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 1: on the front sidment. You never know. If Eric Barry 487 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,159 Speaker 1: ever helps this team out, that would be nice at 488 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: this point that he's going to be the same player 489 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: when at this point that would be a surprise. But 490 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 1: I do think there maybe the number one team to 491 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: watch on Monday and Tuesday. With the trading deadline. There's 492 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: a few cornerbacks that could be available that maybe not 493 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 1: Maybe they won't. It won't be generous Jenkins, who's a 494 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 1: big name, but maybe it'll just be a solid starter 495 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: type that can help their second day. Well, Bridget really 496 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: liked my Patrick Peterson trade possibility. That would be great. 497 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: Cardinals don't see you were in my garage. By the way, 498 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 1: you didn't see Bridget because I don't share Bridget. She 499 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: lives in your garage. I keep her. Yeah, I talked 500 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 1: about on the Thursday show. She's let's say I'm closer West, 501 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: I need to. I had to move her to a 502 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,640 Speaker 1: different part of my home because Bridget is mine How 503 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: does the rest of your family feel about this arrangement? 504 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,360 Speaker 1: They don't know. Did anyone listen to the show? Does 505 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,719 Speaker 1: anyone in your family? My wife is not aware that 506 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,679 Speaker 1: Bridget is in the home. M Bridget, are you there? 507 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: Dan is hot and masculing to hold theisser. I think, 508 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: if anything, it's the intellectual connection and the ability just 509 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: to conversate about anything. You and Bridget, so she's always 510 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: coming up with new ideas and ways to express herself. 511 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 1: You can't buy that kind of affirmation. Anyway. Let's get 512 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: back to the game the Broncos and again keep an 513 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: eye advanced Joseph here is he safe? Because? Uh, they 514 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 1: got a tough schedule coming up here. They get at Chargers, 515 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 1: I mean home to Texas at Chargers, home to Steelers. Uh, 516 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 1: they gotta figure out way how to win games. And 517 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 1: they're sloppy. Ten penalties for eighty three yards, Uh, penalties 518 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: that wiped out big gains. Uh. You know the Broncos 519 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: started to know now the three and five what I Meanwhile, 520 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,360 Speaker 1: the Chiefs have the Browns and Cardinals before that showdown 521 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: with the Rams might be the Marius Thomas's last game, 522 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 1: but seven targets thirty thirty yards hasn't really gotten a going, 523 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: so I'm not sure if other teams are really gonna 524 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: bother to give up a late pick for him. Let 525 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: us move own. Drabinsky floats are passed, cut wide open. 526 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: There goes to a forty midfield quick luck to the 527 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: thirty to the twenty Angleton fund ends up touchdown Babe, 528 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: the Blitz touchdown Bears. They've got the laid Cohen seventy 529 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: yard catching run Jeff Johnny a w BBM with the call. 530 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: Tarik Cohen makes big plays every week. This time it 531 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: was a seventy yard catching run on a perfectly executed 532 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: screen pass. The biggest play and the Bears is thirteen 533 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: win over the Jets at Soldier Field. The Bears played 534 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 1: without Khalil Mack. He was held out after a pregame 535 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 1: workout that I suppose didn't go too well. Was the 536 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: first game he's ever missed, but it didn't matter much 537 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: against the banged up and predictable Jets offense that didn't 538 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: even cross midfield until late in the third quarter. So 539 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: the Bears, the team of around the NFL always difficult, 540 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: very difficult with the team around the NFL plist gets 541 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 1: your favorite teams. There was a lot of personal conflict, 542 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: but ultimately, who's the team of a t again this year? 543 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 1: They are the four and three Chicago Bears. You've heard 544 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: a lot of support down the um, but they they 545 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: got they took care of business here. It was the 546 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: right move to bench or to sit Mac because he 547 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: hasn't been the same guy the last two weeks. If 548 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: the Bears are an actual player in the NFC, which 549 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 1: I'm not totally convinced that, but if if you want 550 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: to make that case, Mac has to get back to 551 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: being what he was before the ankle injury. I would 552 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: even honestly think about sitting him next week to on 553 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: a trip to Buffalo and see if your defense can 554 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: do the same thing it did against the Jets and 555 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: let this guy get right. But Allen Robinson also sat 556 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: out this game. I guess he's their number one receiver. 557 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: He hasn't had much of an impact this year, but 558 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: the defense did the job. As I said at the top, 559 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: so many injuries in the jets y receiver group and 560 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: now without Paul that the field is so small for 561 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: Donald's like a ten yard field, no downfield threat, and 562 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: the Bears just sat on it and they're very not 563 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: an exciting team to watch right now, A tough watch. 564 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: The Jets are so the Bears not an incredible effort here, 565 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: but take care of business game and Mitch Drubisky still 566 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: spooks you a little bit with some of his erratic 567 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: throwing missing open receivers. But I do I do like 568 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: watching him. I know he's not a complete player and 569 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: he's got a lot of work to do west, but 570 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: I like, uh he does make throws and then his 571 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: ability to make plays with his legs. I still find 572 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: it to be an intriguing talent. I think he's fun 573 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: to watch. And ESPN s QBR metric is not perfect 574 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: by any means, but I've always had a lot of 575 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: respect for it. They've got him with a ninety one 576 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: point seven QBR, which is a great QBR ranking for 577 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: this game. Did they QBR in general pumps up running quarterbacks. 578 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 1: I mean that's just good because Gasser rating doesn't give 579 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: him nearly like Tyrod always is super high Kim Newton, 580 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,959 Speaker 1: but that's I think it's that's good to have different measures, 581 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: and it does does show you his his legs have 582 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: so much value and you do look at their schedule. 583 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: Next week they're in Buffalo. They they'll have played the 584 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: four a f C East teams in a row. You 585 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: don't see too often from from a nonconference opponent. And 586 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: the one thing I'd worry about with them, You look 587 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: at their schedule and they're coming along at four and three. 588 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: Maybe they get to five and three. I think the 589 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: other NFC North teams are gonna want to do better 590 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 1: than two and two against the a f C East. 591 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: To me, that's a good nonconference schedule to have. You 592 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: want to beat the Bills, the Dolphins, and the Jets. 593 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: And how much happer you'd be as a Jets fan 594 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 1: to have Matt Neggie attached to Donald because that's why 595 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: you feel like Trabisky can grow as well, because of 596 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: the scheme he's in and because of the history of 597 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: that scheme, and you look at Donald, it's impossible to 598 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: evaluate him. And I rich Samina your boys, and I 599 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: thought appropriately came out of this game sort of lashing 600 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: Todd Bowls for over complimenting the effort of the Jets today, 601 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: sort of saying they really played that. You know, he 602 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: was impressed with the effort, X, Y and Z come on. 603 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 1: I mean they were flat. Come on. It was not 604 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: a great effort by the Jets. They hung around early 605 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 1: because the Bears quite frankly, weren't playing very well on 606 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: offense early on. But uh, I think Bowls is in 607 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: deep trouble. I think he'll survive the season, but I 608 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: barring some type of big turnaround, and I don't know 609 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: if if it's in this Jets team, especially with their 610 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: current state, for that to happen, I think he I 611 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: think he's done. I think he's in a lot of trouble. 612 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: I don't think the offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates is a 613 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: guy that's probably gonna survive this either. So we'll see 614 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 1: what happens. But the Bears get the W and uh 615 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: we move on. James with the rock Briggs three twenty 616 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: fifteen ten five Hey Jim touchdown. James Conner doing his 617 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: thing against Bill Hill Grow Steelers Radio Network, Bill Grow 618 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: with the call. Uh Ben Roethlisberger through two touchdown passes 619 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: d Antonio Brown. James Conner did his thing again, scoring twice. 620 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: The Steelers beat up on the Brown Mark Sessler. The 621 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: Browns remained winless in Pittsburgh since two thousand three. Uh, 622 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: the Steelers overcame a slow start, but the game ultimately 623 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: followed a familiar script. It did, and how far of 624 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 1: a different path these two teams have taken since we 625 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: were in London and watched them fight towards a tie, 626 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: because I watched Cleveland's offense and I'm nothing but concerned 627 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: about Baker Mayfield's physical safety behind a line that has 628 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: no concept of how to block for him. Where the 629 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: Steelers and it had a lot to do with the 630 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: Steelers have stars, the Browns have prospects, and Pittsburgh just 631 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: leaned on the familiar faces of Antonio Brown. But also 632 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: the second half usage and production of James Conner is 633 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: one of the more fascinating halves I've watched in years. 634 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: He absolutely took Cleveland apart and he can do it all, 635 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: and I don't I'm not getting into the Levi on 636 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: Bell comparison game. It's just that they've found they do 637 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: a great job grooming these running backs. And if you're 638 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: Todd Hale, you had to hate watching this because your 639 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: job isn't is now completely on the hot seat in 640 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: that world, as is that entire coaching staffs where the 641 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 1: player that you were with last year looked like one 642 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: of the best players on the field of any NFL 643 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: game today. You know what you describe sounds like the 644 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: old Steelers running backs Jerome Bettis, you know, Barry Foster 645 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 1: or Bann Morris, where you just let them take over 646 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: in the second half and just run it down the 647 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: other team's throat exactly, And like, how familiar is this 648 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: all for the Browns and the Steelers. The day starts 649 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: with competing reports, or essentially a bunch of different reports 650 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: that agree on one thing, which is that Todd Haley 651 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 1: and Hugh Jackson aren't getting along and depending on the 652 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: results of this game, one of them could be fired, 653 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: but not sure which which is a ridiculous a ridiculous thing, 654 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: which I don't doubt is true at all, But it's like, well, 655 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: we'll figure out which one to fire after the game. 656 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: And then you also have the Steelers who are looking 657 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 1: at a division where I know the Bengals won, but 658 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: they don't look as good to me right now, and 659 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: that we're rounding into mid season and the Steelers look 660 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: like the class of the division again. Yeah, we're a 661 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 1: month A month ago we were like, oh, can can 662 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,800 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh handle all this drama, except every year this happened. 663 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: What they do think there? They look fine to me. 664 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,720 Speaker 1: I think the just said I think Todd Bowles survives 665 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: at least still Black Monday, I don't. I still think 666 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: Hugh's in deep trouble in the here and now he's 667 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 1: a week next week. Let's say, let's say he survives 668 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: this week. Who knows? You got the Chiefs, then the Falcons, 669 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: then the bye I don't know if I see a 670 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: wind coming before then the way they're playing right now, 671 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 1: and that would be the time if you, I mean, 672 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: the guy's three thirty six and one. At a certain point, 673 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,320 Speaker 1: you just gotta move on and get the spirit and 674 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:41,879 Speaker 1: the demons out with him. Uh, this Brown season slipping away? 675 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: At what point do you just say the Hugh thing 676 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 1: didn't work. We gotta move on to the next step. 677 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 1: I think what they tried to do was in the 678 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: sake of continuity, because they had such a history of 679 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: you know, it's flipping schemes every two seasons. This is 680 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: a this is the wrong fit and it for me, 681 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,839 Speaker 1: it's not just on field, it is every autumn. There 682 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: are there's in fighting, there's channels of gossip and whisper, 683 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: and you're here again, and we've been here a thousand times. 684 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: Credit to Pro Football Talk for this that of all 685 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: the coaches in NFL history, there is only one with 686 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: a worse record than Hugh Jackson. Bert Bell, who went 687 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: on to be the commissioner for it, went on to 688 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: I don't think that's Hugh Jackson's destiny. But he went 689 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: on to coin the phrase any given Sunday too. I 690 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: think you could come up with any given Sunday type one. 691 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: I actually could see here not being the commissioner, but 692 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: being one of those guys who ends up like working 693 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: in the league office just because people like him, just 694 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 1: like he's like the head of operations or something like that. 695 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: I don't think it's about not liking him. It's just 696 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: this is not yeah, like he'll get an offensive coordinator 697 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 1: job after this if this doesn't work out. But if 698 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: that doesn't work out, then he'll probably be working with 699 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 1: like Michael Snarsi in the NFL office. I don't know 700 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 1: who that is a name that comes up again. I 701 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: think you're thinking of Michael Signora the company. Actually the 702 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: high powered league employee. Lot of pr job is to 703 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 1: shoot down all of your best ideas, there's there's where, 704 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: there's where Hugh was heading. Let's move on. Is gonna 705 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: throw back shoulder more makes a catch, he's in touchdowns. 706 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 1: Seahawks the snap, throw back shoulder to the youngster David Moore, 707 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 1: who tipped it up in the air and tipped it 708 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: right to himself in the ends from fifteen yards out 709 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: off the top of his helmet, and the Seahawks score again. 710 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 1: Steve Rabel Seahawks broadcasting what they called Russell Wilson throw 711 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,760 Speaker 1: three touchdown passes in the second quarter. That's what they needed, 712 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 1: That's all they needed. They beat the lines to fourteen 713 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 1: uh greg. After the game, Russell Wilson said, quote, we 714 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: can do whatever we want right now. They're feeling themselves. 715 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 1: If you're feeling I am, and they should be feeling themselves, 716 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:57,439 Speaker 1: because this was like Brian Schottenheimer's offensive image come to life. 717 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: Just Chris Carson running people over, Russell Wilson being protected well, 718 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 1: not having to throw too much. And then you almost 719 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 1: plan to have the occasional third and long where he 720 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 1: just runs around, figures out what he wants to do, 721 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: and then he gets about one or two shot plays 722 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 1: a game and They're the two of the prettiest shot 723 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 1: plays that any team runs all week, and at the 724 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,919 Speaker 1: end of the game he has three incompletions on only 725 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: seventeen attempts, three touchdowns. They let the lines back into 726 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 1: it a little bit, but this team is really impressive 727 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 1: and has changed really all the the cliches of what 728 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: we thought was bad about the Seahawks going into the season. 729 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 1: I was wrong about the Seahawks. I think a lot 730 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,479 Speaker 1: of people thought they were an also ran team this year, 731 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 1: but their defense especially, I mean this whole the big 732 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: conversation around them as well, the legion of boom it's over. 733 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: This a team in transition, but they've managed to very 734 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 1: quickly put back together a defense or rebuild on the fly, 735 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: and they're winning games with this defense, not to mention 736 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: a running game that has been an issue for them 737 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 1: for years. It's a great job by keep Pete Carroll. 738 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 1: And you know, we heard a lot in August that 739 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: he's rejuvenated by this by getting rid of, you know, 740 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: the backbone of that dynasty that he loves having all 741 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: of these young, hungry players and that plays to his wheelhouse. 742 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 1: And it's it's come true. They're not just physical on 743 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 1: defense and on the offensive line, which has done a 744 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:21,400 Speaker 1: good job run blocking and protecting their physical receiver. And 745 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,359 Speaker 1: that was a huge difference in this game. Your boy 746 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, David Moore, he's just he's just become your guy. 747 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 1: He was dominating, he's just winning one on one. They're 748 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: throwing balls up to him. They're throwing balls up to 749 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett, who's small. But somehow turn around started when Ken, 750 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 1: when David Moore replaced Brandon more contested catches and these 751 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 1: guys were too physical for Tease Taber and some of 752 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 1: the smaller lines secondary. But I don't mean to keep 753 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: hitting the schedule, but you have the Chargers, Rams, Packers 754 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 1: and Panthers next. That feels like a a f C 755 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 1: NFC combined playoff runt. But think that makes it fun 756 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 1: to root for them, because if they can get through 757 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,839 Speaker 1: some of that without the wheels falling off, it's it's 758 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 1: all right to be completely wrong about things sometime or often. 759 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 1: And we were I was about Seattle and it's fun 760 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: or if you're a Pete Carroll fan. Pete Carroll seemed 761 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 1: like he was being kind of eased into retirement and 762 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, he's got a team that's in 763 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 1: the mix. He said after the game. He's still mad 764 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: about how the season started when they got off to 765 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: that slow start, because they would be a real story 766 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: in the league right now if they had to figure 767 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,359 Speaker 1: out a way to win a couple of those early games. Well, 768 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: they're so good at coaching defense that it's it's like 769 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,800 Speaker 1: a safety friendly offense. I know, Earl Thomas, I mean defense, 770 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 1: Earl Thomas isn't in there, but they're two safeties, Bragley 771 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 1: McDougald and t Drich Thompson are playing really well. They 772 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: they signed a slot cornerback or traded for Justin Coleman 773 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,719 Speaker 1: from the Patriots two years ago. Justin Coleman's but one 774 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: of the best slot cornerbacks in the league right now, 775 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 1: made a huge play an interception to intercept to take 776 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,320 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford. It's like they do a better job coaching 777 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: up defense and certainly defends back then the Patriots. You 778 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:51,800 Speaker 1: can look at it when when they have similar players. 779 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: Uh and uh, you know, let's address what we really 780 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 1: are here to address. The streak is over, Chris Wesley. 781 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:03,720 Speaker 1: The streak is over. Long live. We got out coached. 782 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 1: We we overthought, um, we we We went into this 783 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,759 Speaker 1: week fired up about the Colts, but knowing that we 784 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: couldn't look ourselves in the mirror and take them. We 785 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: had a feeling about the Packers and probably should have 786 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: taken them, even though they ended up losing and we 787 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,919 Speaker 1: got two cute We thought we'd we'd do uh, we'd 788 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 1: run back that Broncos one and back to back to 789 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:25,080 Speaker 1: start the season, trying to go for like an identity. 790 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 1: It was a heat check. It was it was, you know, 791 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: but we owned this loss. We're gonna learn from it, 792 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,399 Speaker 1: and we're gonna move on to next week. A total 793 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: round to applause for an amazing run seven straight. But 794 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 1: you should know, Wes, that you built up a nice 795 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:41,839 Speaker 1: little lead. But the Zeus is on a four game 796 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: winning streak himself, just two games out with a lot 797 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: of season left over here in the west Leyan household, 798 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: we do not take our competition lightly or seriously. And 799 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 1: you're good at your job. A lot of press conference, Um, alright, 800 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: any other thoughts on this game? Chris Carson doing things 801 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 1: hundred seventy six yards rushing for the Seahawks. You haven't 802 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 1: seen them a lot in the post um. Marshall Lynch 803 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: now getting snacks. Snacks. Actually, Damon Harrison made a couple 804 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 1: of plays for the Lions, but that alone isn't gonna 805 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:11,920 Speaker 1: change their defense. This game could have gone a few 806 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: different ways. It didn't necessarily need to be so one sided. 807 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 1: I think Matthew Stafford had one last he had one 808 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: last fumble, he had one interception. It was not a 809 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 1: heavy possession game. But that's what Seas does to you, 810 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,239 Speaker 1: is you better make your possessions count or else the 811 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: game side. I don't like Detroit coming out of last 812 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 1: week's run heavy. Everyone's all excited about them. They run 813 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: for thirty four yards. It's good dog. Come on, all right, 814 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 1: let's move on running Defenders over tension in Yeah, we 815 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 1: don't usually go with the TV calls on Sunday, but 816 00:41:53,680 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 1: when Andrew Catalan references Billy Madison out of nowhere, bring 817 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 1: it up, deep cinephile. That's who he is exactly. The 818 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: cults are building momentum. Andrew Luck through three touchdown passes, 819 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: Marlon Mack went off for buck thirty two and two 820 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: scores win over the Raiders at the black Hole. Mark 821 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: Sessler another cinephile, like you like the silver screen, like 822 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 1: the silver screen, perhaps more. Oakland fought hard in this game, 823 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: but the Colts attack was too much in the end. 824 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 1: This was one of these games that go watch this 825 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,359 Speaker 1: list week on on game Pass and watch it soon, 826 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 1: because it was just like, not you didn you don't 827 00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,760 Speaker 1: have to take the other two guys a possession for possession, 828 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: and you got the best game of the year that 829 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:45,359 Speaker 1: Derek Carr has offered. He played great after a week 830 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 1: of criticism and uncomfortable criticism. Let's face it about if 831 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 1: he was a man, and that's a real thing that 832 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 1: he faced this week. Are you crying on the field 833 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,800 Speaker 1: of your teammates like you you're gonna be traded? You 834 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: trade his number one wide receiver. And I watched a 835 00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:01,879 Speaker 1: lot of this game. I thought he played tremendously well 836 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 1: and it kind of reminded me of now it feels 837 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: like forever ago, but when they were eleven and one 838 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 1: or whatever it was three about three years ago, and 839 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: he was playing like a near m VP candidate. There 840 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,720 Speaker 1: is good. There is great I don't want to say greatness, 841 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,840 Speaker 1: but there is supreme goodness within Derek Carr. And I 842 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:20,879 Speaker 1: would think twice if I was John Greden about getting 843 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:22,479 Speaker 1: rid of him, I don't know if that's what's gonna happen. 844 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 1: But he played so well. I don't think they're gonna 845 00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,440 Speaker 1: get rid of him. I'm not sure what the continuity 846 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 1: plan would be there, unless you know you're gonna get 847 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: the topic in the draft and get some quarterback that 848 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 1: you're going to develop. But that could that's exactly something 849 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: John Gruden do. They wouldn't. I guess we shouldn't be 850 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 1: surprised by anything. Trade for Jamis Winston, which really sounds 851 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 1: with you. I'm not kidding that go. Do you think 852 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: that Bruden would would look at Derek Carr and Winston 853 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: and say that Winston is the preferable option though next week? 854 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 1: Because he he seemed to love Winston so much coming 855 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:56,839 Speaker 1: out and and when he spoke about him on TV. 856 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: But then again the same was true for Derek Carr 857 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: and most other young quarterback So that that's just this. 858 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:03,960 Speaker 1: I thought this game came down because it was just 859 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,319 Speaker 1: you're waiting for someone to make a mistake. The Doug 860 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: Martin fumble, and Doug Martin ran really hard, and you know, 861 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 1: if you know Marshawn Lynch and there we've talked about 862 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,319 Speaker 1: at Cooper's gone, and I just thought this was going 863 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:15,880 Speaker 1: to be a game where Oakland just did not show up, 864 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 1: and then the opposite happened. But Andrew Luck on the 865 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 1: flip side, is running one of the more exciting offensive 866 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 1: league wide, and they trust their running game. They're in 867 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: for two hundred plus yards after lashing the opponent with 868 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 1: the run last week. This was the imbalance has been 869 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 1: replaced by absolute balance and offense that is hard not 870 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 1: to take your eyes off of Frank Reich. Look, he's 871 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,280 Speaker 1: put a stamp on this team back to back games 872 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,800 Speaker 1: with a yard rusher three straight games. Andrew Luck hasn't 873 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 1: been sacked. The offensive line is now one of the 874 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,439 Speaker 1: best in the entire league. They are averaging thirty five 875 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 1: points per game over last five weeks, and that is 876 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 1: with their number one receiver, running back, tight end, and 877 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: offensive tackle being out of the lineup for for most 878 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 1: of those games. I mean, that's that's why guys like 879 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:05,879 Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson and and Todd Bowls have a hard case 880 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 1: to make to their owners, because you look at Matt Naggy, 881 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 1: you look at Frank Reich, we're halfway through their first season. 882 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: You can see the stamp up. They're absolutely just different 883 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,839 Speaker 1: operations eight games in and sometimes you gotta get lucky. 884 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 1: It's better to be lucky than good. Because the Colts 885 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,759 Speaker 1: hired Reich on like two days notice after they got 886 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 1: him at the Altar, and it might be one of 887 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 1: the great moves that's happened to them in years. After 888 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,799 Speaker 1: seeing what the culture doing with Frank Reich, how can 889 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,320 Speaker 1: you go into next year and say, I want to 890 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 1: hire a defensive specialist to be my head coach. He 891 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,879 Speaker 1: got Dontrell Inman involved six for fifty two in this game. 892 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 1: But I do have to plan. This is one of 893 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: the low moments in a proud franchise history for the 894 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders, one one of the national teams. That we 895 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 1: were just handing out about fifty lollipops to start off 896 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 1: this game. That you stayed within fourteen points against the 897 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:54,959 Speaker 1: two and five Cults lay a second, Well, you gotta 898 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: watch the game. This was the Tiger, you know, Derek Cart, 899 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 1: Derek Card did it nice to turnover? I'm just saying 900 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 1: there allows mething to culture the record right now though 901 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: that no, they have a plus eight team point differential, 902 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 1: and that is with a team dectimated by injuries. I 903 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 1: told you it was a bad line though by by 904 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: your desert people. The idea, Yeah, that's true. The idea. 905 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,800 Speaker 1: The idea is just to get the wagering close to 906 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,360 Speaker 1: you know, even and hope that the public is up. 907 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,279 Speaker 1: But I bet you're right. I bet everyone thought the 908 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 1: same thing and they ended up they ended up taking 909 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:26,839 Speaker 1: a bath on this one. Take a bad desert take 910 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,279 Speaker 1: got bath. Oh and West Uh Andrew Luck probably know 911 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,359 Speaker 1: everyone took the Raiders and they made lots of money. 912 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 1: We have no idea. Three touchdowns and I got Greg 913 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 1: off the topic, one to each of his tight ends. Uh, 914 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,719 Speaker 1: you know the last time a quarterback had touchdowns to 915 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:43,839 Speaker 1: three tight ends in one game? According to the game 916 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:48,720 Speaker 1: story I read on NFL dot com. Never, you're right, Okay, 917 00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:53,799 Speaker 1: who's writing those? That was Burgo? Right? Burg Bomb? Great 918 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 1: story about Burgo the Halloween parties trying to trick me 919 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,240 Speaker 1: on that though I did. I did, Uh Burgo? Who's 920 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:00,840 Speaker 1: you know friend of the show. He's been on a 921 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 1: several times. Jeremy Bergman does great work. Um at a party, uh, 922 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 1: carrying around a walking stick or a cane of some kind. 923 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,839 Speaker 1: A beautiful woman at the Halloween party and costume comes 924 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 1: up to him. I heard this from someone else who 925 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: was in the circle, makes a bee line for Burgo, 926 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,280 Speaker 1: looks him right in the eyes, and everybody's saying, Oh Halloween, 927 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 1: Happy Halloween. Burgo coming up. She says, you took my cane. 928 00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 1: Took it. He had found it at the party and 929 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 1: was walking around with it. And this woman said, you 930 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,360 Speaker 1: took my cane, recovered the cane, and then left with 931 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,160 Speaker 1: her boyfriend. So we might have to get Burgo in here. 932 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: Just I gotta check in on Burgo a little bit. 933 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 1: I want to know Davi Eally. I always want to 934 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 1: know what's going on with Elie and the ladies. Yeah, 935 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 1: I want to see what's going on with Burgo. Burgo. 936 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 1: Burgo has an interesting resume. He's got a couple of 937 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 1: Hollywood films under the belt as a child actor. He 938 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: could throw that around at a party, That's what I'm saying. 939 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 1: There's some he's got an arsenal. He's a bright guy, 940 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: he's got a he's got a great future ahead of him. 941 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 1: I mean, he should be doing well, but the Halloween 942 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,239 Speaker 1: party struck out well. I mean, you can't swipe. You know, 943 00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,800 Speaker 1: some girls cane. But yeah, let's stop like stealing items 944 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: from people at the party. I mean, I'm not sure 945 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,040 Speaker 1: being the little kid and kicking and screaming is open 946 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:13,919 Speaker 1: up any pants. But by the way, not the better 947 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: kicking and screaming either, the one with Mike Ditko. So 948 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:21,360 Speaker 1: all right, let's move on. Should camped off to Arian 949 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 1: Peterson through a hall fort up the sideline to the 950 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 1: thirty twenty fifty pet Five's that add Peterson all the way. Finally, finally, 951 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 1: Andrean Peterson best one he was in chall day and 952 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 1: he takes it to the house. Whoa Larry Michael and 953 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,440 Speaker 1: the Redskins Radio network with a call. Adrian Peterson score twice, 954 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 1: including that game clinching sixty four yards sprint in the 955 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:57,799 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, leading the NFC East Redskins to a win 956 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: over the wofle Simon at the meadow Lands. Washington is 957 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 1: now five and three, has won three straight. Sometimes the 958 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 1: box score is a little misleading, but that's also it 959 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 1: feels like it's great. It's kind of cool for a 960 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,720 Speaker 1: running back. So they gave them rock to Adrian Peterson 961 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 1: a lot in this game. Uh. Late in the fourth quarter, 962 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 1: he's he's averaging about three yards to carry um and 963 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,320 Speaker 1: a lot of work for not a lot of glory. 964 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,799 Speaker 1: Bang you break off a sixty four yard or all 965 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,479 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you're average in six yards to carry 966 00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:29,880 Speaker 1: for the game and you're off for a hundred and 967 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 1: fifty yards or whatever it is. So they bottled up 968 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 1: here some most of the game, but they couldn't when 969 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 1: they needed to stop the Giants. And Peterson is is 970 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 1: fun to watch thirty three years old and uh, he's 971 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 1: gonna run. He's probably on pace for about yards and 972 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 1: get injured. And he has he always, even when he 973 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 1: was young, he had that little hitch to his getty 974 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 1: up when he gets to his top speed. It seems 975 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 1: more pronounced now. I don't know if that's true now 976 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,759 Speaker 1: that he's older, but it's just fun to see him 977 00:49:57,800 --> 00:49:59,960 Speaker 1: in the open field going down the sideline, beating everyone 978 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:03,879 Speaker 1: and to the pylon. So uh, he bounds up and down. 979 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,719 Speaker 1: He's like he's like a like a dog when an 980 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: owner comes home just bounding at you. He is you 981 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 1: can he is he is kind of like that. But like, 982 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 1: there was not much else for me to take away 983 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 1: from this game. This is a bad game. Um when 984 00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 1: according to script, right, h I went according to script, 985 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 1: the Giants can't score. They they made it look like 986 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,120 Speaker 1: they at least put an offensive showing by getting a 987 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:27,399 Speaker 1: touchdown late, but that was what I believe, seventeen seconds left. 988 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: So like last week, it was just window dressing. Ultimately, 989 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,600 Speaker 1: there no one scores points in the final minutes when 990 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 1: they're down three scores exactly. Um, and uh, Eli Manning 991 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 1: is Eli Manning? You just wonder they obviously kind of 992 00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:44,640 Speaker 1: botched last season how they were going to handle uh 993 00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 1: moving him out of the starting lineup, and that led 994 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:51,360 Speaker 1: to a domino effect that rocked the whole organization. You 995 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:53,359 Speaker 1: just wonder how much longer they're gonna go with him. 996 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,840 Speaker 1: They have two quarterbacks on the roster, including I believe 997 00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 1: a fourth round pick Kyle la Letta. Yeah, uh um 998 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 1: uh So you just you just wonder because Eli has 999 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 1: not been competitive and because because of the offensive line 1000 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 1: let West we talked about it last week. Is a 1001 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,440 Speaker 1: chicken and the egg scenario because the line camp Lockerman. 1002 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:14,799 Speaker 1: Because Eli can't move, it's just a mess. He got 1003 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,800 Speaker 1: sacked seven more times. Oh my gosh, I mean this 1004 00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:19,080 Speaker 1: this looks like if you put in this year's Redskins 1005 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,040 Speaker 1: into a computer and say give me the most Red 1006 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 1: skinny type game, you've got two picks by d J. 1007 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: Swerringer has been awesome. A lot of Adrian Peterson, not 1008 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 1: a lot of wide receiver action happening. The offense is 1009 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:33,400 Speaker 1: who they are. They want to win these games. Twenty 1010 00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 1: to thirteen. They're gonna go about ten and their schedule, 1011 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:37,680 Speaker 1: along with the Colts, is one of the easiest down 1012 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 1: the stretch. You go about ten and six and losing 1013 00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs, which is not a totally disaster scenario for 1014 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:45,560 Speaker 1: a team that everyone counted out in this division. Let's 1015 00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: hear for the front seven. The last three weeks they've 1016 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:52,759 Speaker 1: held see Kwon Barkley, Ezekiel Elliott, and Christian McCaffrey under 1017 00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:57,799 Speaker 1: a hundred year rushing yards combined. That's pretty damn good. 1018 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 1: They have an identity and they've sort of had it 1019 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 1: back even in the preseason. They know who they are. 1020 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's kind of J Gruden dream team, 1021 00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: like this is how he wants to play football. I 1022 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:09,879 Speaker 1: don't know if you're gonna win a title that way, 1023 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 1: but you're probably gonna save J Gruden's job at the 1024 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:13,879 Speaker 1: very least. The only thing is that we talked about 1025 00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:17,360 Speaker 1: over and over the defensive defensive oriented teams are are 1026 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 1: going nowhere. Essentially, we're seeing this J. Gruden act and 1027 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:22,839 Speaker 1: means next week they don't show up. Yeah, and then 1028 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 1: what happens when they play like a team with a 1029 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:28,400 Speaker 1: high powered offense versus Eli Manning who is in sharp 1030 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:31,960 Speaker 1: decline right off a cliff. I think they're a coin 1031 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 1: flip team almost every week. But at the end of 1032 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:35,800 Speaker 1: the day, they're five and three, got a game and 1033 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:38,240 Speaker 1: a half lead in the East. Uh, and the Giants 1034 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,719 Speaker 1: are counted down the weeks until I mean they can start. 1035 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: They don't. They don't play anyone for the entire rest 1036 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:47,080 Speaker 1: of the season that you would put as one of them. 1037 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:48,719 Speaker 1: The Eagle. They have to play the Eagle flights and 1038 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,640 Speaker 1: that's that's tough. And they they have the easiest remaining 1039 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:54,839 Speaker 1: schedule by winning percentage in the NFL. Hubba hubba. All right, 1040 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 1: let's move up bunch that the right two receivers left 1041 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: shop got ahead of bet third. He's chasing a town. 1042 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 1: He picks it up with two seconds left. He hoistsed 1043 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,840 Speaker 1: far side, didn't complain of the game is over. The 1044 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 1: game is over and the Cardinals win at eighteen to fifteen. 1045 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 1: Trick fo t we gotta we gotta clip off that 1046 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 1: Ron Wolfley lines That was great. Dave Pash the wolf Man, 1047 00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 1: Cardinals Radio Network, Yes. With the game on the line. 1048 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 1: C J. Blard watched helplessly as the snap sailed over 1049 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 1: has had That gap cost San Francisco the final seconds 1050 00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 1: of the game and allowed the Cardinals to escape within 1051 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:43,080 Speaker 1: at the farm, Greg, you look for progress when you're 1052 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,799 Speaker 1: playing a rookie quarterback. Josh Rosen's go ahead touchdown drive 1053 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:51,359 Speaker 1: that preceded that final possession that qualifies absolutely. I spent 1054 00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:55,080 Speaker 1: three quarters watching this game thinking I don't know if 1055 00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 1: benching Josh Rosen for a week or two would help him, 1056 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 1: but that he seems so lost that they need to 1057 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 1: do something. But this is why you play the kids, 1058 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 1: because sometimes they play themselves out of it. And the 1059 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 1: experience that he had with Christian Kirk for the go 1060 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:15,239 Speaker 1: ahead touchdown, the throws that he had to Larry Fitzgerald, 1061 00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,839 Speaker 1: who had a hundred yard game and a vintage performance 1062 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:22,279 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter after doing absolutely nothing all day, 1063 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 1: to really strong touchdown drives. The only other drive they 1064 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,839 Speaker 1: had was stopped because one of his receivers fumbled the ball. 1065 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:32,160 Speaker 1: That Rosen pulled himself together after what was really a 1066 00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 1: rough performance to go get a victory and you put 1067 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,239 Speaker 1: that in the bank and like that's the experience you 1068 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:40,920 Speaker 1: want your young franchise quarterback to half. How about Byron Leftwich, 1069 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,759 Speaker 1: We see any any noticeable difference at all? They got 1070 00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 1: the ball. I thought they used David Johnson a little 1071 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 1: bit better. He had he had more than I think 1072 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: he had about at the very end. Yeah, he left 1073 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,440 Speaker 1: UH with he came back they were testing his concussion, 1074 00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:55,919 Speaker 1: but he came back in. He got about a hundred 1075 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:57,799 Speaker 1: yards from scrimmage. They got to bother him in space 1076 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 1: a few more times, I thought, especially in the passing game. 1077 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,759 Speaker 1: So that helped. That was his his promise to not 1078 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 1: just UH Cardinals fans but also fantasy owners, that I 1079 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: am going to use them the way Bruce Arians used 1080 00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:11,880 Speaker 1: David Johnson, And it did seem like they made that 1081 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 1: concerted effort to get the ball to him in space. 1082 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 1: Cardinals have swept this series this year. You know how 1083 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 1: in college they have like the iron bull and like 1084 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:21,440 Speaker 1: the bucket of Nails Bull or whatever this should be 1085 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,439 Speaker 1: like the recycled Bathwater Bull or in New York Snoop Bowl. Yeah, 1086 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:28,960 Speaker 1: it's tough when your season, or at least I'm just 1087 00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,919 Speaker 1: saying it's sadly it existed at something like the game 1088 00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:35,800 Speaker 1: came down to the center, had two bad snaps in 1089 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 1: a row to end the game, or else Phil Dawson 1090 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:39,879 Speaker 1: at least would have given it a shot to try 1091 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 1: to tie it up. But it's not like the forty 1092 00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:44,280 Speaker 1: Niners deserved that. They had the ball a few times 1093 00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, and Kyle Shanahan, who's known for 1094 00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:50,520 Speaker 1: being aggressive, was just hoping the game would end just 1095 00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:52,800 Speaker 1: running the ball. I mean he tried. He tried to 1096 00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:54,400 Speaker 1: throw it a few times on third down, and then 1097 00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:57,480 Speaker 1: the blitz would just batter C. J. Beth. He's saying 1098 00:55:57,520 --> 00:55:59,759 Speaker 1: he wants the number one pick. No, not at all. 1099 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 1: He was just hoping that his defense, you know, would 1100 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 1: finish the game off for him because he had no 1101 00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:09,040 Speaker 1: faith in his offense. And I don't blame him no faith. 1102 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:13,279 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no faith. This is one. This is one 1103 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 1: of my four locks of the week. I clearly shouldn't 1104 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:19,239 Speaker 1: have jumped off is off the first one. We probably 1105 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,160 Speaker 1: got the other three. Rund Now I deserve to get 1106 00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:23,400 Speaker 1: to get the loss because I jumped off and I 1107 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 1: went two and two, So that's a big loss in anyway. 1108 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 1: So I went two and two in my locks, and uh, 1109 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 1: you know, next time C J. Bethort will carry me through. 1110 00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:34,319 Speaker 1: It was a good experience. Were you intimidated by Dan 1111 00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:37,960 Speaker 1: and I jumping on the eagles thing a little bit? 1112 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 1: It wasn't so much intimidation, but it just didn't seem 1113 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,520 Speaker 1: fun or sporting to all have the same. It just 1114 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 1: seemed boring. Not not that I thought my pick had 1115 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 1: a lesson. We got in your head a little like 1116 00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:49,960 Speaker 1: you did. It was sporting like conduct. What just does 1117 00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,840 Speaker 1: doesn't that feel like, I know there's no rules to 1118 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:54,799 Speaker 1: this game, but doesn't it feel kind of like what's 1119 00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:57,239 Speaker 1: the point of three? It was a little bit of 1120 00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 1: fun if we were all in it together. But if 1121 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,399 Speaker 1: I had all the time, you would have a point. 1122 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 1: But I think time. It's like I had about four 1123 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:05,719 Speaker 1: or five games that I thought I probably would feel 1124 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:10,000 Speaker 1: equally about as good as this segment. Well that, yeah, 1125 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 1: that feels like a part of it. Well that wouldn't 1126 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:15,120 Speaker 1: do it, But that does add a new element. If 1127 00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:18,000 Speaker 1: I start locking up four to five games a week, well, 1128 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:21,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna tracking you, obviously to make sure that you're 1129 00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 1: you're respecting well, there are no rules though, you can 1130 00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 1: do whatever you want. You could just lock up. I'm kidding, 1131 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 1: I'm kidding. I'll you need to You need to get 1132 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:33,040 Speaker 1: some ws though, because you behave your way under what 1133 00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:35,360 Speaker 1: doesn't matter at this point West West would have to 1134 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,680 Speaker 1: totally collapse. This is actually possible. I could hear in 1135 00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 1: your voice that you're a little bit upset with yourself 1136 00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:44,880 Speaker 1: that the locks of God. I get upset when I lose. 1137 00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 1: I am. It's I like, I have had terrible sports 1138 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 1: luck as a fan lately, and this is like the 1139 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:57,640 Speaker 1: latest thing in the world series.

I'm contested to the engine, and 1170 00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:50,640 Speaker 1: it's not often your own receiver get you. Digs is 1171 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:53,160 Speaker 1: gonna come over and stop and try and come back. 1172 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 1: The defensive fat keeps going and Cousins thought he was 1173 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 1: gonna keep going, ends up going a right to p 1174 00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 1: J Year p J. Williams pick six of Kirk Cousins. 1175 01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 1: It was basically over at that point. The Saints took 1176 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 1: control of this game uh late in the first half 1177 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 1: and proves to a thirty twenty win over the Vikings 1178 01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis. Um somewhat surprising effort here from the Vikings, 1179 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 1: who seemed to be hitting their stride Mark Sessler, and 1180 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:26,880 Speaker 1: yet the Saints come to town. The Saints up to 1181 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:31,440 Speaker 1: six and one now and they smack the Vikings around 1182 01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:36,000 Speaker 1: a little revenge after the NFC Divisional playoffs a year ago. 1183 01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:38,960 Speaker 1: This is the kind of game if I'm a Vikings fan, 1184 01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 1: has me concerned about where your season ends at some 1185 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 1: point in early January, because you are looking at an 1186 01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:48,920 Speaker 1: offensive line that could not protect the cornerback. And there 1187 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 1: were a couple of killer turnovers in this one. The 1188 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 1: Adam Theland fumble that resulted in a major turning point 1189 01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:57,240 Speaker 1: at the end of the first half for the Saints 1190 01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 1: that I don't think the Vikings ever got back into 1191 01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 1: this game untally after that took the window of their sales. 1192 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:06,200 Speaker 1: I know how much Dan loves win probability. According to 1193 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:09,640 Speaker 1: ESPNS win probability chart, the Vikings had a seventy seven 1194 01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:13,720 Speaker 1: percent chance to win before that fumble. So in which 1195 01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 1: the shows how stupid to win. Probably, I love win probability. 1196 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:18,680 Speaker 1: I put a lot of stocking so they they forced 1197 01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 1: the funnel. Adam fieland of all present, of all people, 1198 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 1: who by the way, had another one hundred yard game, uh, 1199 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:28,480 Speaker 1: building his NFL record, UH, and scored a late touchdown 1200 01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. But when he turns the ball over, 1201 01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:34,840 Speaker 1: the Saints uh are able to quickly turn that into seven. 1202 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:39,080 Speaker 1: So that's like fourteen points swing. And then, like you said, Mark, 1203 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 1: when they got when they got into the second half, Uh, 1204 01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: it just seemed like the game had changed that point, Greg, 1205 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 1: Why why did it work out that way? Because the 1206 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:49,920 Speaker 1: Saints can be in different ways. This was on some 1207 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:53,240 Speaker 1: level a flukey game with those that turnover and then 1208 01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:55,760 Speaker 1: the pick six being so important. Drew Brees only throws 1209 01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:57,280 Speaker 1: for a hundred and twenty yards and you put up 1210 01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:00,800 Speaker 1: thirty points and win comfortably comfortably. But the Saints have 1211 01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:02,920 Speaker 1: shown they can win different types of ways, and one 1212 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 1: of those ways is having a ball possession attack where 1213 01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 1: mark Ingram is running out the clock at the end 1214 01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 1: of the game, you're having short passes for long drives, 1215 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:13,240 Speaker 1: which they did. There's it was only an eight possession game, 1216 01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 1: I believe for New Orleans and the Vikings, who are 1217 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:18,640 Speaker 1: a team built on defense, they got the interception of Breeze, 1218 01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 1: but other than that, they basically didn't get any stops. 1219 01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 1: They could not stop the Saints from scoring. And now 1220 01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:27,120 Speaker 1: that division is wide open, the NFC North. There's no 1221 01:02:27,320 --> 01:02:31,280 Speaker 1: cupcake in that division. And the Vikings are four three 1222 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:34,080 Speaker 1: and one, right ahead of the four and three Bears 1223 01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 1: and the three three and one Packers. Can't make sense 1224 01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:40,760 Speaker 1: of this Vikings team. They started off slow, got hot, 1225 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 1: and this is this is a distressing loss. I did 1226 01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:44,959 Speaker 1: you say you thought it was kind of a flukey loss. 1227 01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 1: I don't. I just mean there was a couple of 1228 01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 1: plays that made it a strange kind of game. I 1229 01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,480 Speaker 1: think the Saints are a more complete team in terms 1230 01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 1: of running, passing, and even the defense, you kind of 1231 01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 1: know what you're getting. Marcus Davenport right now is making 1232 01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:57,560 Speaker 1: a player to every game, and they're getting better in 1233 01:02:57,720 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 1: terms of their past. Saints have won six in a 1234 01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 1: row and we have a game next week where they 1235 01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 1: now face the Rams. That's a beautiful I mean, the 1236 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 1: Saints have the top two tackles in the league according 1237 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:10,560 Speaker 1: to Pro Football Focus, whereas the Vikings are putting you know, 1238 01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 1: a rookie in his third start trying to stop Cameron Jordan. 1239 01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:15,440 Speaker 1: Good luck. Don't you feel like the NFC North will 1240 01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:17,520 Speaker 1: not have a wild card team this year? You better 1241 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 1: win that division if you want to go to the playoffs. 1242 01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:22,160 Speaker 1: Right now that the Saints and Panthers both look like 1243 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 1: playoff teams for sure, so that there's I do. But 1244 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:28,480 Speaker 1: they have a pretty tough schedule. It that that last 1245 01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:31,320 Speaker 1: spot in the NFC, I mean, the entire NFC North, 1246 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 1: it seems totally up for grabs, and Taysom Hill continues 1247 01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:37,000 Speaker 1: to stake his claim as the under the radar greatest 1248 01:03:37,120 --> 01:03:39,160 Speaker 1: NFL player. And this is the Kitchen Sinc game. You 1249 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 1: got Taysom Hill on that throat to Camara's a ridiculous catch, 1250 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 1: and then you have a play with Teddy Bridgewater and 1251 01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill on the field at the same time. It's 1252 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:51,120 Speaker 1: like Sean Payton went here for a little revenge. Well, 1253 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:54,520 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler has closed his laptops, so that means we 1254 01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,680 Speaker 1: must close this podcast. Yeah, it's like I feel like 1255 01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:00,440 Speaker 1: we've said enough. It is time to move on new 1256 01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 1: phases of our lives.
