Now, Chris, was that a sloppy 15 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 2: a game? Because I was amazed by it? But was 16 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 2: that a sloppy a game as you've seen Josh Allen 17 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: play ever? 18 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 3: Definitely? Definitely definitely. Now My defense always for is you 19 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 3: know this is he's got to do everything, and you 20 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 3: ever notice that they never win games when he doesn't 21 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 3: play just awesome and That's where I always go the 22 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 3: roster just not good enough. 23 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 4: I don't care what anybody says. We see game. 24 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 3: We seen quarterbacks playing worse than Josh Allen and their 25 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 3: teams still find ways to win. 26 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 4: They're not capable of doing that. 27 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 3: And that's where I don't necessarily agree with McDermott taking 28 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 3: the fall maybe over the GM right, I kind of 29 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 3: side with the coach on that one too. Like not 30 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 3: too many all pros we've talked about in Buffalo, we 31 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 3: never talk about a difference maker that we got to 32 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 3: change the game plan for on either side of the ball. 33 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 3: So that doesn't match up to other teams that have 34 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 3: gone to the Super Bowl, right, the Eagles, we've talked 35 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 3: about it's an all star, all Pro team. Then when 36 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 3: they were in the Super Bowls, I mean it's like, 37 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 3: oh my god, oh my god. H positions like that. 38 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 3: It's one Pro Bowl or a All Pro after another. 39 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 3: The Chiefs, of course, tons of them, the forty nine 40 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,559 Speaker 3: ers teams that lost in the Super Bowl, tons of them. 41 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 3: I mean tons of them, Like, oh my gosh, it's 42 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: an all star team again. So you know, the Buccaneers 43 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 3: with Brady, team was stacked with talent Buffalo doesn't match 44 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: up in that department with those guys. McDermott and Josh 45 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 3: Allen have closed that gap and made a fugazy Oh 46 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 3: this is a super Bowl team, and you know me, 47 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 3: I've been here with you guys for three. 48 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 4: Years agoing it's not really a super Bowl team. 49 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 3: It's a real good team with one of the greatest 50 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 3: quarterbacks we've ever seen. But to your point, yeah, Josh Allen, 51 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 3: he played arguably his worst game of the year. 52 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 4: Right when you talk. 53 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 3: About mistakes and then some things that were available to 54 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 3: be had, he played awesome in the first half. 55 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 4: Awesome. 56 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm writing in my notes on my phone 57 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 3: going Josh Allen is bawling. 58 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 4: He's taken over the game. 59 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, he was taking this year is the year? 60 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:39,839 Speaker 2: Yes, that's right. 61 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,239 Speaker 4: He was thirteen to fifteen. 62 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 3: They were going up and down the field on the Broncos. 63 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 3: He'd run for forty yards already in the first half. 64 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 3: But the play at the end of the half was inexcusable. 65 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 3: And that's where Josh Allen very rarely leaves plays on 66 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 3: the field. He usually is a maximizer and that's what's disappointing, 67 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 3: is he didn't do that in a big game. 68 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 6: Seems one of the strangest parts about that Bill's press 69 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 6: conference yesterday was the strays that Keon Coleman was taking. 70 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 6: Is that something if you're a Keon Coleman, that you 71 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 6: can come back from? Or is his time in Buffalo 72 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 6: almost over? 73 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 2: He caught a touchdown last week in a playoff games, 74 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: and yeah. 75 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, he's got some work to do. I mean, 76 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 3: he knows where he stands. I mean, he hasn't lived 77 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 3: up to what he should be at this point, right. 78 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 3: I don't think he's handled himself like they truly want, 79 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 3: as you know, a first round receiver and being a professional. 80 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 3: So all that's led to him not dressing in certain 81 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 3: games and doing all that. But I think the strays 82 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 3: are not and Keon Coleman shouldn't take it personal. The 83 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 3: strays are more about the big picture stuff we're talking about. 84 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 3: The Bills don't have a number one receiver. The Bills 85 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 3: don't have a number two receiver. They don't have a 86 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 3: one or a two. 87 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 2: I mean they had digs and he shipped them out. 88 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 3: I mean they had digs and digs again, even at 89 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 3: this point of his career. I know he was the 90 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 3: leading receiver to pay. He's not a true number one. 91 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 3: He's a real good number two. What the team and 92 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: the Patriots who have other twos and threes, and they 93 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 3: focused the offense around him, right, So that's where, Yes, 94 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 3: he was a number one early on in his career. 95 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 3: But that's what we're talking about. It's lack of those 96 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 3: type of players, right. Dalton kin Cave was supposed to 97 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 3: be a star. He's been good, but he hasn't lived 98 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 3: up to it. 99 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 5: Right. 100 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 3: Ed Oliver is supposed to be a star. He's been good. Again, 101 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 3: I'm not taking away from any of it. Like Brandon 102 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 3: Bean's done a lot of good. But I also sit 103 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 3: here and stick up for Sean McDermott and go yeah, 104 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: but the team is not nearly as good as like 105 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 3: we've talked about some of the other teams that have 106 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 3: been in the Super Bowl and been in that window 107 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 3: here the last few years. 108 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 2: Chris, do you think Josh Allen has done it? How 109 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 2: does this work in the NFL? Because I think people 110 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 2: are fascinated by this. Do you think Pagoula and beat 111 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 2: does Josh Allen have a saying whether or not McDermott 112 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 2: remains as head coach. 113 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 4: I think if he went in there, it was like, 114 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 4: you can't fire. 115 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 3: Him, no way, don't do it right, They wouldn't have 116 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 3: done it one. But I know Josh Allen well enough 117 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 3: and been around him enough to know that he's not 118 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 3: into He wouldn't do either one. I would be shocked. Right, 119 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 3: He's gonna let the people and the powers of be 120 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 3: run the thing. I think one of the reasons Josh 121 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 3: Allen was crying so hard at you heired he knew 122 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 3: he might get fired exactly right. I mean, Josh Allen's 123 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 3: not stupid. He's heard people like me on TV and 124 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 3: Florio and you guys and other people go, you know, 125 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 3: if the Bills don't get to the super Bowl, or 126 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 3: if they lose one of these first you know, wild 127 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 3: card divisional round, Sean McDermott might get fired. I mean 128 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 3: that was going around the NFL. I had been saying it. 129 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 3: I mean, so you know, I think that's. 130 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,559 Speaker 4: Part of the emotional plea. 131 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 3: What you saw from Josh Allen after the game is 132 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 3: he knew not only did he let his team down 133 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 3: and he missed opportunities that he usually doesn't miss. I 134 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: think he also knew that this could lead to, yeah, 135 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:54,559 Speaker 3: the head coach being fired. 136 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 2: Am I crazy to think the Bill should hire Belichick? 137 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 4: Yeah? I think you will, thank you, Okay, Yeah, I. 138 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 3: Mean I wouldn't want to go that way at this 139 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 3: age where he's at. I mean, you know again, yes, 140 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 3: and there's just been some questionable decisions. I know he 141 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 3: can still coach ball, but there's just been other issues too, 142 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 3: you know. And also with the with Belichick, the problem 143 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 3: I think he'd have is just like, yeah, how many 144 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 3: good years does he have left if he goes up there? 145 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 5: Right? 146 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 3: I think a lot of coaches around the league and 147 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 3: go like, is Bill going to hang in there too long? 148 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 3: I don't know if I want to root my whole 149 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 3: family and then he retires two years from now, right right? 150 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 3: So that doesn't I don't think that's the direction you 151 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 3: want to go. 152 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 4: I don't. 153 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 3: It feels like to me right now about it's going 154 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 3: to be either Joe Brady the offensive coordinator, or maybe 155 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 3: Brian Dayball that if he made me guess, I'd say 156 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 3: it's one of those two. 157 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 4: As I sit here right now on a Thursday talking to. 158 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 2: You guys, what can you tell Dolphin fans about Jeff Hafley. 159 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 3: Hafley's a head coach. That's the one thing I'll tell you, 160 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 3: like no doubt about it. I always knew he'd be 161 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 3: a head coach, and if you were around him, he's 162 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: that kind of personality that can command a room and 163 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 3: have relationships and be that guy. 164 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 4: And then his defense is legit, right. 165 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 3: I mean, he is one of the better game plan 166 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: specific defensive coordinators in all of football. He can do 167 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 3: it a lot of different ways, So I think that's 168 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 3: what's awesome about him. He's gonna bring physicality to the crew. 169 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 3: He's gonna bring smart defensive game planning on a week 170 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 3: to week basis. 171 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 7: Since your boy Florio put out a report that there's 172 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 7: a possibility Lamar Jackson could be intrigued by going to 173 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 7: the Raiders, and my question for you is what kind 174 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 7: of gummy did you slip into his morning coffee to make? 175 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 3: As I have would agree, I mean I need to 176 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 3: ask him that. 177 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 4: I got to ask him that, you. 178 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 8: Know, hey, could you get me one? 179 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 4: I figured you already had your own, so you were good. 180 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 3: But either way, I mean I was surprised to hear 181 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 3: that too, right, I was, you know, and I don't 182 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 3: know if it's just conjecture or theory or whatever, you know, 183 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: I certainly can believe that Lamar would love to get 184 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 3: to South Florida. 185 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 4: I get that It's gonna be interesting to me here. 186 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 3: To see how quickly Lamar wants to renegotiate or negotiate 187 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 3: a new contract. 188 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 4: Right. 189 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 3: Steve Bushati was pretty clear in his press conference of 190 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 3: like I talked to Lamar. I told him we wanted 191 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 3: to get it done early. We can use the same 192 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 3: contract as before, except we'll just boost the numbers up 193 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 3: a little bit. Right, So, like, if Lamar really wants 194 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 3: to be in Baltimore, he's just gonna be like, Hey, 195 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 3: let's do it, let's sign it, blah blah blah. But 196 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 3: if he delays a little bit and hymns and hawes 197 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 3: like I don't know, and there is thought out there 198 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 3: that he'd like to go to South Florida, then my things, like, 199 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 3: mikey Edy, your point is like, why would you want. 200 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 4: To go to the Raiders right now? 201 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 3: I mean you know, I mean, Lamar, you'll be you'll 202 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 3: be two or three years older by the time they 203 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 3: get the team situated in the right spot. And that's 204 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 3: where I just can't imagine that that fancies Lamar Jackson. 205 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: I'm interested in Jared'stidham and what's going to happen here 206 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 2: with a lot of people are comparing him to what 207 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 2: the Giants did with Jeff Hosteler, to which I keep saying, no, 208 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: that's different. Your dad got hurt eleven games into the season, 209 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: I think, and Hosteler had five games before to kind 210 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: of ramp up and get ready for a playoff run. 211 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 2: They eventually won the Super Bowl. This is a guy 212 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 2: being thrust into the AFC Championship game who. 213 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 5: Hasn't played in a long time. 214 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 2: There is no ramping up here. He's gonna have to 215 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 2: face the fire in the biggest game of his life. 216 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 5: Do you think he could pull it off? You know him? 217 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 5: Do you think he can pull it off? 218 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: Well? I do think he can pull it off. 219 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 3: You know, it's it's gonna take a team effort, right, 220 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 3: you can't. You got to break him into the game 221 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 3: kind of slowly early on. Their defense is going to 222 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 3: have to play well and know that, hey, we got 223 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 3: to buy our quarterback some time to get in a 224 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 3: little rhythm here, right. We can't expect them to come 225 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,199 Speaker 3: out and just be like, oh, seven for eight on 226 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 3: the first drive for sixty yards on a touchdown. 227 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 4: I'd be shocked if that happened. 228 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 3: Okay, so yeah it's but yeah, I think people are 229 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 3: disregarding the Broncos a little too strongly here. Yea, you 230 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 3: know they're at home. They match up with the Patriots. 231 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 3: The Patriots have been shaky on the offensive side of 232 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 3: the ball, so to think that they can't win a 233 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 3: defensive twenty to seventeen type of football game, that's where 234 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 3: I would go. Watch out everybody right now, Like you said, 235 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 3: there's the hosteler thing where. Yeah, I think the Giants 236 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 3: might have been twelve and two or eleven and two 237 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 3: when my dad got hurt against the Buffalo Bills and 238 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 3: they changed their offense a little bit. Right, My dad 239 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 3: was the number one passer in football that year. The 240 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 3: Giants were throwing the ball and being pretty aggressive, but 241 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 3: they had the ability to have a power running game too, right, 242 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 3: So you saw it, you remember you saw Super Bowl 243 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 3: twenty five. I mean the Giants kind of down the 244 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 3: stretch just said we're gonna run the ball three out 245 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 3: of every four plays. We're gonna chew up clock. We 246 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 3: got Belichick and these great defensive players, and we're gonna 247 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 3: kind of play that way. 248 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 4: Now. 249 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 3: I don't think that Broncos can rely on their run 250 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 3: game like that. So you know, Stidham knows the offense. 251 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 3: They're not gonna have to hold back things. It's just 252 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 3: going to be about getting him comfortable early on. And 253 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 3: I think that's where I look at it and go, yeah, yeah, 254 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 3: I think they got a fighting chance too. And then 255 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 3: if their defense, like you know, Drake May has fumbled 256 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 3: six times in two games and he's started two interceptions. 257 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 3: He's not playing MVP caliber football. He's been shaky. So 258 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 3: if their defense can recover one of those fumbles or 259 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 3: get a pick or all that, and Stidham can just 260 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 3: kind of stay the course, then you go, Yeah, the 261 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 3: Broncos at home with that de caon they upset the Patriots, 262 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 3: of course, they can, no doubt about it. 263 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 4: Sims. 264 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 6: I was looking at Divisional round qbrs and Drake May 265 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 6: had the lowest QBR of the quarterbacks that played the 266 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 6: divisional round. What have you seen from Drake May and 267 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 6: YZ not playing at that MVP level that we saw 268 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 6: during the regular season. 269 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 3: Well, he played two really good defenses and to have 270 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 3: a worse QBR than C. J. 271 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 4: Stroud. 272 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 3: I don't know how that would be even be that 273 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 3: tells you that there's something wrong with how they do QBR. Right, 274 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 3: we don't need a QBR to go who played quarterback 275 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 3: the worst last weekend? Like what the there's something wrong 276 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 3: with the formula? Go back to the drawing board, Like 277 00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 3: are you kidding me? 278 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 4: That's crazy terrible? 279 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 2: Yes, he said that that quarterback. 280 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 5: I mean it really is. 281 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 3: That's unbelievable, like challenge flag on that. But yes, he's 282 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 3: I respect Drake May because he's he really can keep 283 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 3: his eyes downfield and stay calm under pressure, right, but 284 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 3: a little too calm lately, Like come on, you know 285 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 3: you're playing the Chargers, you're playing Houston, Like you can't 286 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 3: just totally. 287 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 4: Block it out. 288 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 3: You got to be a little aware in the pocket 289 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 3: of who you're playing against. And your own team hasn't 290 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 3: protected all that well as of late either, So I 291 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 3: feel like pocket presence has not been the best, and 292 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 3: he's been a little off throwing the football. I know 293 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 3: he had the two go routes down the sideline in 294 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 3: the game last week, right, he had that, and sure, 295 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 3: but there's been also another number of errant throws. 296 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 4: So it's a little bit of everything. 297 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 3: And that's again where you know, you look at this 298 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 3: and go, Denver's gonna feel like they can pressure him 299 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 3: a little bit. Denver's gonna go, hey, we got pat 300 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 3: certain he can take digs and then we could put 301 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 3: other guys and and and cover him that way, right, 302 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 3: So that's where you give Denver the fighting chance. The 303 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 3: only problem is New England's gonna feel really good on 304 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 3: the defensive. 305 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 4: Side of the ball. How they match up against Denver too. 306 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 4: They're gonna go, wait, oh. 307 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 3: You want to run the ball early on, we stop 308 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 3: the run and you're not that good at running Denver, 309 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 3: Oh you want to throw a little short screen passes 310 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 3: and stuff like that and get going. They're gonna go, 311 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 3: We're gonna smother you and get in your face. We're 312 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 3: not really scared of it. Like Christian Gonzalez is gonna 313 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 3: take Courtland sudden, Carlton Davis will take the receiver. 314 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 4: On the other side. 315 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 3: Marcus Jones is one of the best nickels in all 316 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 3: of football. So I think they're gonna play the like, oh, oh, 317 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 3: you think you're gonna run the ball and throw a 318 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 3: little quick passes to get Jared Stidham in a rhythm 319 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 3: early on. 320 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 4: They're gonna go no, no, no, We're gonna take that away. 321 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 3: They're gonna feel good about their matchup on that side 322 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 3: of the ball too. That's why I'm taking the Patriots 323 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 3: twenty four to seventeen. 324 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 4: I know I got them covering the spread. Yeah, but 325 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 4: like I think. 326 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 3: It'll be a close, tough fought football game where the 327 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 3: Patriots gonna pull away late. 328 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 5: All Right. 329 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 2: The NFC Championship game Seahawks minus two and a half 330 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 2: against the Rams, what a great game. Can wait to 331 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 2: see it? Donald Matthew Stafford. I think Stafford becomes a 332 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 2: storyline here and whether or not he could win a 333 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 2: second Super Bowl. Or maybe it is Sam Darnold who 334 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 2: has had his journeys and has found himself a home 335 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,839 Speaker 2: in Seattle and now is one game away from the 336 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. 337 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 5: Who do you like here? 338 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 2: It's minus two and a half Seattle Rams. 339 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 3: I like Seattle, and now I say this in full 340 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 3: transparency at the start of the playoffs, right, I always 341 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 3: do a playoff bracket every year. 342 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 4: I had the Texans and the Rams in the Super Bowl. 343 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 3: But I'm not going to just go Oh, well, I 344 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 3: picked that three weeks ago, so I'm sticking with it. 345 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 4: No, I'm not. 346 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 3: I'm going to evaluate the situation a little bit. Seattle's 347 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 3: as hot as anybody in the sport right now on 348 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 3: both sides of the ball. I mean, so I just 349 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 3: look at that, and then I think, out of the 350 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 3: four teams we have left in the playoffs, Seattle's roster 351 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 3: is the most talented. And then you couple that with 352 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 3: the Rams, who I don't think have played their best 353 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 3: ball really ever since maybe the first three quarters of 354 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 3: that week sixteen Thursday night game up there in Seattle. 355 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 3: That's where I kind of favor Seattle in this one. 356 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 3: But am I scared about Sam Donald their first time 357 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 3: in this kind of experience. 358 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 4: Yes, And the Rams have been there, done that, and they're. 359 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: Not gonna be intimidated by playing up in Seattle because 360 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 3: they've been there and done that. 361 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's where it's scary. 362 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 3: But where I do think it's different for Sam Donald 363 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 3: that's compared to Minnesota, is you know, Minnesota played a 364 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 3: style of football where they're like, hey, we want you 365 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 3: to throw for three hundred yards. 366 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 4: That's what we do. We don't run the ball. 367 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 3: We want to throw and throw and throw, and we 368 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 3: got these two receivers and we're gonna throw to them. 369 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 4: See, Seattle doesn't give a damn. They don't. 370 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 3: And you know, Seattle needs to continue to run the ball. 371 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 3: And they don't run the ball enough really if you 372 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 3: look at it and the way they moved and open 373 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 3: up holes. But they have to do that and rely 374 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 3: on their defense, and I think that takes pressure off 375 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 3: of Sam Donald. So that's where I like, you know, 376 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 3: Sam Donald, not to choke under pressure. We know they're 377 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 3: capable of big plays on the offensive side of the ball. 378 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 3: The Rams defense has not been playing real good lately. 379 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 3: I mean, you saw it. I mean, I know the 380 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 3: Bears didn't score a lot of points, but they kind 381 00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 3: of went up and down the field on the Rams 382 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 3: throughout the football game. 383 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 4: Yeah right, So I worry about that. 384 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 3: But on the same token, you know, I know McVeigh 385 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 3: and Stafford can get hot and maybe put up some points, 386 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 3: but I still feel like I'd be shocked. The way 387 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 3: the Seahawks defense has played since that first three quarters 388 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 3: against the Rams has been as good as anybody in 389 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 3: the NFL. 390 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 2: I love people saying there's no dominant team in the 391 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 2: NFL and there are three teams holding up their hands going, hey, 392 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 2: we're fourteen to three with a chance to go to 393 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. 394 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 4: I know, I know it is it's funny. It's just 395 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 4: it's you know, I think it's it's kind. 396 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 3: Of what we're talking about is none of these quarterbacks 397 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 3: make you feel warm and cozy yet. 398 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 5: Right. 399 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 3: We all know Drake May is going to be awesome 400 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 3: and is awesome already, but it's still his first time here. 401 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 4: And then it's Stidham and it's Sam Darnold. Yeah, so 402 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 4: there's a. 403 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 3: Lot of young and lack of experience in these type 404 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 3: of situations here, and I think that's where, you know, 405 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 3: we've looked at these teams and gone, ah, you know, 406 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 3: they're not maybe as great as some of the great 407 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 3: teams have passed. But it's a defensive year and you 408 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 3: got what three out of the four top scoring defenses 409 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 3: in football going against each other. And that's what we're 410 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 3: seeing here, and I think that's where these quarterbacks can't 411 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 3: forget you know what got him there? 412 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 2: PFT with Mike Florio every day on Peacock the Unbuttoned 413 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 2: podcast as well Football Night in America.

It's the 660 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 2: It's the shift that I would least want to do 661 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 2: in radio. 662 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 9: Now that I see them under the shadow of your 663 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 9: ball cap. 664 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, not terrible. I look pretty good, not terrible. 665 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 2: I gotta be honest. I was checking myself out earlier today. Yeah, 666 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 2: and I was like, man, I gotta tell you, with 667 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 2: everything you've done to yourself, you look pretty good. I 668 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 2: was talking to myself. I mean, I'm going crazy. 669 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 9: How big was the mirror? Just the face? Their full buddy. 670 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 2: So it was an angled mirror. 671 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 5: To make me look. 672 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 8: Better, A flattering angled mirror. 673 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 9: What angle specifically is he? 674 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 2: Are you turned off by college football because I'm reading 675 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 2: about Dari mensa, who is the quarterback formerly with Duke, Well, 676 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: you might still be with Duke went into the portal 677 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 2: going to Miami. Miami's offered him, you know, a whole 678 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 2: new deal, ten million dollar nil deal, separate andil deals, 679 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 2: and a scholarship for his sister, who plays soccer currently 680 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 2: at the University of Oregon. And the reason I ask, 681 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 2: are you tired of college football? I am because it 682 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 2: is giving me a headache. It is too much. You 683 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 2: have players. I have no idea who's playing quarterback for 684 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 2: what school next year. I'm not certain who's coaching what 685 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 2: team next year. And I know we're coming off a 686 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 2: great playoff, an exceptional championship game, especially in that second half. 687 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 2: But college football, they need to get somebody to wrangle 688 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 2: this in and be the commissioner. Whether it's Nick Saban 689 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 2: or somebody or anybody else. Okay, they need to get 690 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 2: someone who is in charge of college football and has 691 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 2: the ability to wrangle this thing in. 692 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 5: Because now you have a situation. 693 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 2: Where Duke is suing the kid who played quarterback for 694 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 2: them last year. 695 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 9: It's not it feels messy, right, But to offer a counterpoint, 696 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 9: I will simply read from a show sheet provided by 697 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 9: Taylor Hippolis of the VIP Room. He said, when NIL started, 698 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 9: people thought the Alabamas of the world would pull even 699 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 9: further away, and it's been the exact opposite. And then 700 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 9: he has another note that says, which I don't know 701 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 9: how this is helpful for us. People also complained that 702 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 9: NIL was ruining college football in general. The season ended, 703 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 9: which one of the best stories in the history of 704 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 9: the sport. That's all true, It's all true. 705 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 5: Thank Taylor for that. 706 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 9: Yes, but all the stuff that you're talking about, all 707 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 9: that mess that's happening underneath, as people are climbing up 708 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 9: to try to be the indianas, it's just even dirtier 709 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 9: than it was before. And then you start bringing in. 710 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 9: When I say dirtier, I mean it just feels dirtier, 711 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 9: like people stabbing each. 712 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 2: Other in the back in the shadows. I got to 713 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 2: be honest with Yeah. 714 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 9: I'd rather have the FBI tapping telephones, yes, than people 715 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 9: suing each other. 716 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 2: Yes, I mean a suit k full of cash. I mean, 717 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 2: that's that's what I'm talking about. Do it in a 718 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 2: back alley somewhere, you know. 719 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 9: In that respect that, Yeah, I do think I've been 720 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 9: tired of this part of college football anyway. But for 721 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 9: those who have their you know, have to get involved 722 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 9: in it because it's the new recruiting. You know, more 723 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 9: power to you if you're that interested in that. But 724 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 9: I don't want to be on message boards wondering which 725 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 9: quarterback is going to sue his way out of his 726 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 9: current situation. 727 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 2: So let me be very clear. I am fine with 728 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: the transfer portal. What I love about the transfer portal is, 729 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 2: you know, in years past, you would have a second 730 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 2: third string quarterback who would never get an opportunity to 731 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 2: play because he went to a school where there's a 732 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 2: guy in place, and that guy is not giving up 733 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 2: the number one starting job, and so now that kid 734 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 2: has the ability. Kyle McCord is a good example of 735 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 2: the kid who was with Ohio State had to transfer, 736 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 2: went to Syracuse led the nation in passing his senior year. 737 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 2: In years past, he would have had to sit on 738 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: the bench for Ohio State for a senior season. At 739 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 2: least he had the opportunity to go to Syracuse. He 740 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 2: led the NCAA in passing, and then the Eagles drafted 741 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 2: him I think maybe in the fifth or sixth rap. 742 00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 5: So I love the portal. 743 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 2: Can we figure out a way to wrangle all of 744 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 2: this sin so it's not all willy nilly and we're 745 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 2: jumping all over the place. And I have no idea. 746 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 2: Willy nilly is an old phrase, but I have no 747 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 2: idea who's playing quarterback where and who's coaching where. It 748 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 2: drives me crazy because we talked about the you being 749 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 2: back and if Carson Beck could finish off this great story, 750 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 2: what great story. We've never seen a story like it, 751 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 2: And then people were talking about Carson Beck being a 752 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 2: um great if he won the national championship. 753 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 5: No, he was there for a season. 754 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 2: He was a hired gun, erected quarterback to help the 755 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 2: U win a national championship. 756 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,719 Speaker 9: Such a contrived, feel a good story. You're right by 757 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 9: the way, I will. I no longer say willy nilly. 758 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 9: I now say Billy Gilly because it reminds us of 759 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 9: an old friend. 760 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 2: He's an old producer, Billy Gilly. He's an old co host, 761 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 2: an old producer of ours. I tell you have something here, 762 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 2: I don't. Oh, you were leaning in like you had 763 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 2: something there, Like I thought I was in your wheelhouse 764 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 2: on that U way. 765 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 5: To bail me out. I got you here, dude. Stud. 766 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 10: Just to your point though about the transfer portal, Yes, yeah, 767 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 10: Dan in La, if you had to sit out a 768 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 10: year like like football and basketball used to have to, 769 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 10: how many of these guys are actually moving? That's my 770 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 10: question to it is. I think that change along with 771 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 10: all of nil. But to be immediately eligible to play 772 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 10: the next season, I think is really open. The Wild 773 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 10: Wild West. 774 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 9: Show on Sundays. You're doing too much over here.

We were talking 809 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 2: about the Baseball Hall of Fame during the break and 810 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:14,760 Speaker 2: is he asked me a very good question, an interesting question, Actually, 811 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 2: do you still care about the Baseball Hall of Fame 812 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 2: and so? And my answer was no, But I guarantee 813 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 2: you that Taylor does because Andy Pettitt did not get in. 814 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 2: And I'm guessing Taylor that you are furious because you're 815 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 2: a big time Yankee fan. So is mikey A. I 816 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 2: am guessing both of you are upset that Andy Pettitt, 817 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,720 Speaker 2: with two hundred and six votes forty eight point five percent, 818 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 2: is not going in to Cooperstown Baseball's Hall of Fame. 819 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 6: So it was a big jump up from last year, 820 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 6: which is I guess encouraging. But yeah, I'm kind of 821 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 6: at the point where I just want them all in. 822 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 6: I want them all in at this point because you 823 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 6: can't tell the story of baseball without the Alex Rodriguez is, 824 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 6: the Barry Bonds is those guys when you watch their 825 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 6: careers now I know their their careers are tainted with steroids. 826 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you can't. 827 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,280 Speaker 6: You can't tell the story of the nineties in baseball 828 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 6: without them. So if you want to put them in. 829 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 2: And without the steroids, you mean, yes, if you want 830 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 2: to put them in and put like an asterisk on 831 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 2: their plaques, go ahead. 832 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 4: And do that. 833 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 6: If you want to put them in a separate wing, 834 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 6: go ahead and do that. But I think their careers 835 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 6: deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. 836 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 8: It's fake now, it's forget. The Baseball Hall of Fame 837 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 8: is for gazy. 838 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 11: I got a kid who's perfect, like, wants to do 839 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 11: everything baseball. 840 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:28,919 Speaker 8: That's why I have the mint. 841 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 11: Yeah, and he's dying to go to the Baseball Hall 842 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 11: of Fame, and I'm gonna take him. We're gonna walk 843 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 11: around and I'm gonna be like, yeah, but there were 844 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 11: a bunch of guys better than these guys that aren't 845 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 11: here because they took steroids like everybody else. 846 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 9: If you if you actually play it out and they 847 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 9: do put out let's say a steroid era wing, it 848 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 9: would be the most popular section. 849 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 5: Of the Hall of Fame. It'd be the greatest of 850 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 5: the greats. 851 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:52,399 Speaker 4: I mean. 852 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,439 Speaker 9: The only part about it that I do like sort 853 00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 9: of the unexpected result is the Andrew Joneses of the 854 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 9: world do get in because they're voting for somebody else. 855 00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 9: And for me, I think the debatable guys probably should 856 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 9: get it anyway. But for me, the era that I 857 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:14,359 Speaker 9: still loved baseball, Andrew Jones, who's a nightmare to deal with, 858 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 9: not only at the plate, but was just an crazy 859 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 9: impressive center fielder. So I think he absolutely deserved to 860 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 9: get in. Would he have gotten in if it wasn't 861 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,760 Speaker 9: for people holding off and then just you know, keeping 862 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:26,919 Speaker 9: the steroid users out. 863 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 5: Maybe not. 864 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,400 Speaker 2: Andrew Jones is certainly deserving of being in the Hall 865 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 2: of Fame. So was Carls Beltrin. I'm not certain. I mean, 866 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,799 Speaker 2: Andy Pettitt is deserving. That's fair, and Taylor is right, 867 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 2: and I agree with it because I've spoken to Tim 868 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 2: Kirchin about this several times, and no one cares about 869 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame the way that guy cares about 870 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 2: the Baseball Hall of Fame. He agrees Bonds a rod manny, 871 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 2: any of the steroid guys they should be in the 872 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame, have their own wing. Put an asterisk 873 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 2: to whatever you want, but those are some of the 874 00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 2: greatest players who have ever played. Bonds was better before 875 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 2: stef if I'm being honest. He was a three time 876 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 2: MVP before he got to San Francisco. 877 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:05,720 Speaker 9: More of an all around player. 878 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 5: Maybe. 879 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 9: Do you think Carlos Beltrin is friends with Lewis Robert 880 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 9: because Beltran and I'm still going to die on this hill. 881 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,919 Speaker 9: There's no chance. His name is Lewis Roberts, l Ui 882 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 9: S yes R O B E R T. As a 883 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 9: Cuban man. I believe Cuban. I'm not sure. 884 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 2: I think he had the proper response earlier when you said, 885 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:28,280 Speaker 2: let's ask the Roberts. 886 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 5: Or the Robts for all. 887 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 9: You know what I'd settle for asking the Beltrons. I 888 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 9: think they probably have a better answer than anybody in 889 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 9: any of these rooms in here. 890 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 2: Taylor, you're leaning in again. Now, I'm not confident going 891 00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 2: to you, but you are leaning into the microphone like 892 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 2: you have something to say. 893 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:45,879 Speaker 5: Yeah. 894 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 6: People forget that Carls Beltron was tied to the Houston 895 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 6: ational scandal, remember when he was the Mets manager for 896 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 6: like two months. 897 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 2: Yes, you said that very quickly, because he had ten seconds. Yeah,
