Here is South Alabama Eastern Michigan. The NBA 18 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: is in full swing. College football, Like Kevin Wyer just said, 19 00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 2: games all over the place. 20 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: But bj Husky back from Larry jitas.

I'm not all the way back. 24 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: But when you have Larry and Gitas and you wake 25 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,639 Speaker 1: up one morning and you go to say good morning 26 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: to your son and absolutely nothing comes out, like like 27 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: that's serious. I thought I was dreaming. I thought I 28 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: was like, okay, so I went to the hospital. In everything, 29 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, this ain't normal. I talk. This 30 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,039 Speaker 1: is what I talked for a living. So it's not 31 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: all the way back, but it's back enough for me 32 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: to come. I missed the seat, I missed the show, 33 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: miss being here. This is my addiction. This is my drug, 34 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: talking sports to the people. Man, So it's good to 35 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: be back. 36 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,479 Speaker 2: Kerry Rhades filled inadmirably in your absence. But he did 37 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: pick the Jets and Atomic Dog who lost by thirty, 38 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 2: So there's that. 39 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I would expect him to probably pick 40 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: the bum ass Jets, but you know, it is what 41 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: it is, man. So but yeah, yeah, I know he 42 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: feels in great carry Rose is great at this is 43 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: great at what he does. Good guy there, man, We 44 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: know each other through Mike Hill. So'm homie right there. 45 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: So Sky he was able to sit in. I'm sure 46 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: he glass. I had a great bangout show. But I'm back, 47 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: so let's get to it. 48 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 2: The Pittsburgh Steelers have been a topic of much conversation. 49 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: Apparently George Pickens doesn't like to block right. People are 50 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 2: wondering is Mike Tomlin done well. Mike Florio in the 51 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 2: pregame show today on NBC, reported that the Steelers intend 52 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: to extend inten intend to extend Mike Tommin's contract before 53 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty four season begins, and he will be 54 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 2: directly involved in roster planning for twenty twenty four and 55 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. He's given no indication that he is 56 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: unhappy or disgruntled already for something new. Last week, I 57 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: thought it was hit pretty much rock bottom for Pittsburgh. 58 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: But uh, I mean we say that as they're eight 59 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 2: and seven right now, so rock bottom is relative. But 60 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 2: I think today, I mean, people were calling for Mike 61 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: Tomlin to leave the I think what they might be 62 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 2: calling for is Mason Rudolph to be the starter going forward. 63 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 2: Mikem Mike Tomlin non come middle today in the postgame 64 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 2: press conference over who would be his starting quarterback coming 65 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: up next week. 66 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett wanted to play today. 67 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: I have sorcerge on that saying that, But they did 68 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 2: not activate him quite yet, give him another week to 69 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 2: reft that ankle. But he will be active next week. 70 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 2: And the Steelers have a decision to make. Yeah, they 71 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 2: got a decision to make. 72 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,399 Speaker 1: But not only do they have a decision to make, 73 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: they got a you can't I like what Tomlin did. 74 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: Let me just start there by not being committed to 75 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: the quarterback. That's the right thing to do. That's the 76 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: right thing to say at this point in junction where 77 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: they are the exactly exactly. You don't come out and 78 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: throw the guy under the bus and put the guy 79 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: back on the bitch. That just won you a game 80 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: that even though you're ninth in the AFC, it still 81 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: keeps you alive for the playoffs. So smart, But that's 82 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: a veteran coach move. He did the smart veteran coach move. 83 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: Now he also has to say that because Canny Pickett, 84 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: whether you think he's the guy or not, it's still 85 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: a first round draft pick and we have to move 86 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: away and maybe some people won't. Some people will. Well, 87 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 1: we need to be great right away. Everybody can't be 88 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes or Peyton Manning, who actually threw almost thirty 89 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: interceptions his rookie year and they went three and thirteen, right, 90 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it happens. So he did what he had 91 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: to do, but there were for two different reasons. He 92 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: did the smart thing that you have to do. To me, 93 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: it was great to see the running game get back 94 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: to old Pittsburgh's style. Run the ball, beat you up. 95 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: And you mentioned talking about the receiver. Yeah, he don't 96 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: like the block possibly, but what he likes to do 97 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: is catch bombs and run completely away from defender. So 98 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: I didn't know if it shut up the noise. I 99 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 1: hear you about the contract extension. Let's there's still three 100 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: weeks to go. Let's kind of wait and see how 101 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: this plays out. Albert Breer had a little something on 102 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: Colin this week where the word out there is if 103 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: he was the leave, he won't be fired. It'll he 104 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: won't be fired, but it'll be a Hey, I've it's 105 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: been it's been fun. It's been a good job here. 106 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: And the two teams he threw out there, which made 107 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: a lot of sense being at Tomlin is a v 108 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 1: A boy from the Tawater area where the Commanders in Carolina, 109 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: so there's there's other interest for him. But I hear 110 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 1: you about the extension. Let's I say, let's wait these 111 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: last three weeks though. 112 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, just as an aside, I'm sick 113 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: and tired of the Saints having one of the worst 114 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 2: coaches in the NFL and nobody trying to fire him, 115 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 2: like we thought all about Brandon Staley. You know, at 116 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 2: least the Chargers made the playoffs under Brandon Staley. 117 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: They did lose and up huge in their game on 118 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: the road, so at least they made the playoffs. I mean, 119 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: Dennis Allen, my god, man, his words, not his name's 120 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: not even being out there. It's just being fired. Hey, 121 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: you know what, it's not even it's out there. 122 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 2: I said it last week when people you know, the 123 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 2: Steelers were you know not obviously did not acquit themselves 124 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 2: with they did today. But hey, I know somewhere you'll 125 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 2: be appreciated. Mike, I got a couple come on down 126 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: in New Orleans. Baby, black and gold is real close 127 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 2: to black and yellow. 128 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: But uh, I think right now the this uh, this, 129 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: this game is one of those indictments on your starting quarterback. 130 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 1: And when your starting quarterback goes down and the offense 131 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: looks like it did today. Obviously, Mitchell Trubisky got up 132 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: two or three cracks at the Apple before he before 133 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: we saw Mason Rudolph get to start, and I can 134 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: I'll be honest, I can't remember the last thing that 135 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph did in the NFL besides getting bopped in 136 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: the head with his own helmet. Yeah, last State. That's 137 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: when I think Mason Rudolph before I think of anything Steelers. 138 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 1: The great career he had in Oklahoma State comes to mind. 139 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: For so you're right when him and mouths Garrett got 140 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: into it, that's not positive. That's the last thing, you 141 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. That's really the last moment that 142 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: I can remember of Mason Rudolph. And then you don't 143 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: forgive me if he had some mop up duty here 144 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: there or wherever. But this is his first start since 145 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. Yeah, and listen, he I don't know 146 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: how well he played. I thought his receivers made plays 147 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: for him. Defense is great. I mean, what more can 148 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: you say about TJ. We talk about a lot of 149 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: other you know, Michael Parsons and Khalil Max and uh 150 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: and Max Crosby, And I know, I know he's one 151 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: defensive player of the year, but I don't hear his 152 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: name talked on the frequency when we talk about defensive 153 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: game changers. This kid's legit. He If he leads the 154 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: league in sacks again this year, it'll be the third 155 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: time in his career. He'll be the only player in 156 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: NFL history. That's Reggie White, That's Derek Thomas, that's Bruce Smith, 157 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: that's Lawrence Taylor that would lead the league in sacks 158 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: for three straight years. He is really anchoring that defense 159 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: with the big injuries that they have in the secondary. 160 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: I mean, dude, they were starting Patrick Peterson to say 161 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: his safety had said they lost all four safeties. And 162 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: and Eric Rowe former Dolphin. I heard his name. I 163 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: sat up, whoa that is that where he is? Because 164 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: I know he's not Miami anymore. Move him up off of. 165 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: The practice squadngland in between. But uh, notably getting cooked 166 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 2: Eric Row like he was. That's why I wasn't in 167 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 2: Miami long. He was getting cooked. But I mean not 168 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 2: necessarily in this Pittsburgh game.

Watt wrecking shop man as we saw mayday. 172 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 2: It really truly helps. But I think, I mean, they're 173 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 2: a fire Tomlin chanton Pittsburgh. 174 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: People were booing, you know what, they weren't None of 175 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: those today.

But listen, at 179 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: this time of year, this is a huge NFL weekend. 180 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: This is a huge NFL weekend. If you just go 181 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: down to schedule, if you just go down to games 182 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: and what each game means to every franchise, whether it's 183 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: a playoff or not. We're talking coaches jobs on the line. 184 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: People think that I think Washington's coach is on his 185 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: way out the door. I think that's already decided. I 186 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: think Chicago's already decided to move on from their head coach. 187 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: There's a lot of flucks. Carolina doesn't have one, so 188 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: they need one. The Raiders need one, the Chargers need one. 189 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: There could be at least ten open jobs that I 190 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: don't think I've ever seen that many open jobs in 191 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: NFL in one offseason. So this weekend is huge. And 192 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: the Steelers did what they were supposed to do at 193 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: this point in the year. You need a win. You're 194 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: at home. You're going to get to backup. You're playing 195 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: a backup too, but you're at home. You got a 196 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 1: dominant defense, go win the game. And that's what they did. 197 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: I mean, just talk on the Raiders real quick. You 198 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 1: think they you think they'll need a new head coach. 199 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: I think Antonio Peers might got a shot. He has 200 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: a shot, but he won't me to go. 201 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 2: They just hung up sixty three on a professional football team. Yeah, 202 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 2: you know, it's the reason why I think the Chargers 203 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: play better tonight. By the way, I absolutely believe that 204 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 2: to be true. Especially Look, because there's three double digit 205 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 2: favorites on the board right now, one of them is 206 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: going to lose outright. 207 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: That's just the way it worked. 208 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: Like all the parlays, every Jimmy and Joe is putting 209 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 2: is putting the bills in parlays right now and teasers 210 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 2: and all of that type of stuff. As we said, 211 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: Austin Eckler break a ten yard runald second and three 212 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 2: Bills went three or four and out in their first 213 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 2: possession of the game. But yeah, nah, I'm with you 214 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: here in terms of this game that we're talking about 215 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: right now, the Chargers and the Bills, because I mean, 216 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: last week you really had to wonder, like, how does 217 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 2: Eastern Stick practice well enough rank to maintain his backup 218 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: job as a quarterback. 219 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,319 Speaker 1: I think right now it's and you heard Austin Eckler's 220 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: comments about you know, when the coach is fired and 221 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: leaves in the middle of the season, it does break 222 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 1: that player to franchise personal relationship. And he said, I'm 223 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: a free agent after this year. Everybody now is playing 224 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: for their job and there's no need to even like replace. 225 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: Why at this point play who's out there, play what 226 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: you got. Let everybody on this team advertise for the 227 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: next coach coming in. I think it's Jimmy Berger's, but 228 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: whoever the next coach is coming in here, everybody's advertised. 229 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: You guys that are on contract gears, that's why he's 230 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: still the court who where are you gonna go? Who 231 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: you gonna put in at this point? No Keenan Allen today, 232 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: No Bosa today. Let this kid just take his lumps 233 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: and play or make throws like he just did. There 234 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: hit a open receiver for big first down? Is that 235 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: the rookie Quinton Johnston? 236 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 3: Yeah? 237 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: TCU kid? So you know, dude, you don't make no 238 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: change at this point right now, five and nine. I'm kid, 239 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: it's your job. The last four weeks, the last month, Hey, 240 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: go put some tape out there. 241 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 2: We're not going backwards. Well, I mean, we'll see about how. 242 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 2: We'll see how the Chargers play again after losing by 243 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 2: forty point. 244 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: Crushed the last time out. 245 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 2: I love Brandon Staley at halftime walking into the locker room. 246 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 2: First of all, kudos to him seriously not even being 247 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: funny for doing the interview, because he could have ran away. 248 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 2: I don't think anybody would have laughed or I think anybody. 249 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 2: I think everybody would have understood had he wanted to 250 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 2: just run out. But he goes, that's not us out there, 251 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 2: that's not us out there. Well, now you're done, all right, 252 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 2: it's not us because you're not out there anymore. Kellen 253 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 2: Moore calling the plays. Giff Smith, I tell you it, 254 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 2: this interim head coach. 255 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: I actually respected the fact that he spoke the way 256 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: he spoke all the way to the end. He knew 257 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: he was getting fired, but he ain't played it out, 258 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: but he played it out. I respect that when you 259 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: know the end's coming, but you still play it out 260 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: with class and professionalism. I respect that all the It's 261 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: like a two week notice, Okay, I get it. The 262 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: job won't give you a two week nods they want 263 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: to fire you. Yeah that's true, but two wrongs don't 264 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: make a right. You know what I'm saying, Like Big 265 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: Mama been telling us that for life, you play it 266 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: out professionally until the end. He knew he was getting fired. 267 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 1: Expect the team gave up on him. You can watch 268 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: pro athletes give up on fields, courts, wherever they play. 269 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: You can watch pro athletes mail it in if they 270 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: just don't like the message, they don't like the energy 271 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: that was on full display. The Raiders took advantage of 272 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: it forty two nothing at the half. But trust me, 273 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if they win, but they're not getting 274 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: their ass kicked tonight. They're gonna hang in this game, 275 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: and they're gonna play well. Buffalo's not the same team 276 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: at home. I think the weather and the rain made 277 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: Dallas look a little worse than they really are. Buffalo 278 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 1: look a little better than they are too. But with 279 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: the charges here, listen, like I said, stick with what 280 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: you got man, get your new coach, and just move forward. 281 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 2: We'll look at the Buffalo side of this coming up 282 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 2: after the break. If we shut Josh Palmer catch a 283 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 2: pass from east to stick for a first down. 284 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: That was not happening last Thursday night. 285 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 2: But we'll take a look at the Buffalo side of 286 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 2: this thing coming up next.

As the Chargers lead 310 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 2: the Bills three to nothing midway through the first quarter, 311 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 2: and we have several other football basketball games, everything is 312 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 2: going on right now. As they introduce the Chargers defense, 313 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 2: this is a defense that last week. 314 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: Gave up sixty three points. That's a lot. Yeah, that's 315 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: a lot. It's not who they are though, No, that 316 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: was you. You made reference to it last segment, and 317 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: I think it's a very prescient point. They laid down. 318 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, like we saw the Dolphins earlier this year, score 319 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 2: just under what seventy was the seventy was the final 320 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 2: right seventy. 321 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: Points on the Broncos. 322 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: But when you watched the when you watch that game, 323 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 2: there were several plays in the first quarter and first 324 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 2: half that just spiraled out of kid, like, you know, 325 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 2: Miami's what Courtland's someting fumbled, It bounces right into Javon 326 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 2: Hollins's hands, like that type of stuff was happening, tipball 327 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 2: and twice, right sudden twice, one of. 328 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: Their best offensive players. Now as we see in there, 329 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: kind of their resurgence recently, even though they just lost 330 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: to Detroit on Thanksgiving and Sean Payton was giving Russell 331 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: Wilson the ball lose however, Uh, that was weird. I thought, So, yeah, yeah, 332 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 1: I'm not a big Russell Wilson guy, and everybody knows that, 333 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: But I still I still think certain players earned the 334 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: right not to be undressed like that on national TV 335 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: in front of everybody, when it was a collective mistake 336 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: by the coaching staff and Russell Wilson. I think that's maybe, uh, 337 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: you know, you're grabbing cond of close, say what you 338 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: got to say, or you really could just tap him 339 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: and go, you know what, we both we both f cup. Okay, 340 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: it's cool and let's go. Let's let's get But I 341 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: think Russell Wilson has earned enough respect in this league 342 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: from any coach to not be undressed like that. That 343 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: looked like a college coach going at a star sophomore 344 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: that he's got. 345 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 2: Onto me, a Dion versus his cornerback Deon Sanders when 346 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 2: he undressed. 347 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: Stout mind yeah, Stout and I didn't like it. I 348 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: didn't like it. You don't. You don't have to undress 349 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: kids like that, and especially grown in the NFL, you're 350 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: dealing with grown men, so when you're dress and Russell 351 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: took it like a champ. He really did. He took 352 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: it like a one hundred percent professional champ. But he 353 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: also lives a very god Christian like. He lives a 354 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: very peace type like. It's not in him to fire 355 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: back to me. That makes it more weird that your 356 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: coach do that, because who would know that more than 357 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: your head coach. Your coach would. Your coach is with 358 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: you every day. He's an offensive guy. So him and 359 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: Russ they like smoking and Craig, you know what I'm saying. 360 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: They're together, So it looked weird. It just felt like 361 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: that damn dude, Like, Okay, I get it, but that's 362 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: not a rook or a second year guy. I think 363 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,360 Speaker 1: he's earned enough respect for you not to undress him 364 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 1: like that. And there are plenty of people who feel 365 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: exactly how I feel about that situation. 366 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 2: So another team that was undressed last week, the Dallas Cowboys. 367 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,479 Speaker 2: James Cook had like two hundred and twenty all purpose 368 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 2: yards last week. That's, I mean, insane to think. But 369 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 2: there's just a beautiful display of offensive football from Buffalo 370 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 2: in my opinion, because you know me, I just love 371 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 2: to watch grown men moving other grown men against their 372 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 2: will football one on one, and that is exactly what 373 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 2: was happening in Buffalo on the seventh Sunday when they 374 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 2: played the Chargers. As Josh Allen throws an incomplete pass 375 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 2: on third and five, Chargers forced a punt out of 376 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 2: this Buffalo offense, but not having necessarily the same successful 377 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 2: far in the first quarter with Buffalo, and Josh Allen 378 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 2: completed seven passes last week and. 379 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 1: Won the game. All right, So you know what I 380 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 1: was about to say. You see how these first two 381 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: drives started last week was an anomaly. Buffalo is not 382 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: gonna stick with running the football, ladies and gentlemen. That 383 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: was the weather, the rain. Josh Allen's had some turnover problems. 384 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,439 Speaker 1: They took the ball out of his hands. Put on 385 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: the game tonight, Josh Allen is now dropping back and 386 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: slinging it all over the field. Guess what, two three 387 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: and outs back to back three and outs. They're not 388 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: going to do that. They have been worse than twenty 389 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: fifth and rushing the last five seasons. They really put 390 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 1: it on Josh. That's why I said before the break 391 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: last segment, I don't think last Sunday made Dallas as 392 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: bad as people were talking about them. And I don't 393 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 1: think it made Buffalo it's good as people were talking 394 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: about him. When rain on the road Buffalo, and you 395 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 1: go up to Buffalo in December, it's hard. Okay, I'm 396 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: a life longdolphin fan. It's hard to go up there 397 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: and win for anybody after December first, it just is, 398 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 1: you know, Western New York not necessarily a winter vacation hotspot. 399 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: Pretty bad weather. Yeah, even when it's raining, it's still 400 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: like twenty five twenty six degrees. That's cold. You ever 401 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: been colding?

We also have a couple of college 421 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 6: bowl games going on right now. The Chargers with an 422 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,239 Speaker 6: early three to nothing lead against the Buffalo Bills. They 423 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 6: got about three and a half minutes ago in the 424 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 6: first quarter out in Los Angeles, and this is important 425 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,199 Speaker 6: for the Bills because they are on the outside looking 426 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 6: in in a playoff spot. 427 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: They do that. 428 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 6: They are tied with the Colts and the Texans, who 429 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,199 Speaker 6: are the last two wild cards, but they both have 430 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 6: the tiebreaker over the Bills, so the Bills really do 431 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 6: need this one. That's because the Pittsburgh Steelers nipping on 432 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 6: their heels. They beat the Cincinnati Bengals earlier today thirty 433 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 6: four to eleven. Jake Browning three interceptions, and Mason Rudolph 434 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 6: played pretty well in in the start for the Steelers, 435 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 6: as he had two touchdowns and two hundred ninety passing yards, 436 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 6: both of those touchdowns going to George Pickins. And with 437 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 6: that win, the Steelers do leapfrog the Bengals into that 438 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 6: number nine spot, Cincinnati falling from the number six spot 439 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 6: all the way down to number ten in the AFC 440 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 6: playoff standings.

All it 500 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: is to you and your entire family circle. So let's 501 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: stick right here with the Chargers. Let's talk about what 502 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna need most this offseason. That's a head coach. 503 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 1: I like James Jacob Harball aka Jimmy Burgers to get 504 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 1: the job. I think it fits for him. After they 505 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: win the National championship from Michigan, he could just wave 506 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 1: by by the all the NCAA stuff and come down 507 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 1: here to La. Any names out there that you hear 508 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: my friend in the NFL circles that want that job, 509 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: covert that job. They may be looking at this guy, 510 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 1: maybe a name nobody's really talking about to somebody whisper 511 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: to you about over at Cocktail. 512 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 8: Well, it's going to be the most desirable job during 513 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 8: this head coaching cycle. Most definitely. You have a franchise 514 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 8: quarterback in Justin Herbert. And I'm a little bit biased, 515 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 8: but you're probably in the best city in the world 516 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 8: in la as well, and I'm here and Harball as 517 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 8: high and the Chargers list, I wouldn't be surprised if 518 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 8: a coach like Bill Belichick, if being the Patriots part 519 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 8: ways to Charge just certainly need an experienced head coach, 520 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 8: a head coach as a proven track record of winning. 521 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 8: And I don't think if you can get two better names, 522 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 8: especially during this hiring cycle, other than Bill Belichick or 523 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 8: Jim Harball. So definitely they should go after those two. 524 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 8: They should be at the top of their lift. 525 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,959 Speaker 2: Tyler, you also were covering the Rams game as they played. 526 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 2: Was it Sunday night now or no Thursday night? 527 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 1: Thursday? 528 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I just tried to delete all I tried 529 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 2: to delete. Derek Carr moments out of my brain. So 530 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 2: Del's garbage time touchdowns didn't fool me. Pal, But we 531 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 2: saw show hal Tani in Sofi Stadium and he was. 532 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: Wearing the jersey of the guy you were writing about 533 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: could be the Rookie of the Year. I disagree, but 534 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: go ahead. 535 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 8: I mean, anytime that you're a rookie, you're talking about 536 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,959 Speaker 8: Poop and Akua now, and he can pass the NFL 537 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 8: record for most receptions and NFL history for a rookie 538 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 8: and most receiving yards in NFL history for rookie. I 539 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 8: don't see how you can't give him NFL Offensive Rookie 540 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 8: of Year now. Yes, CJ. Stroud is having an exceptional, 541 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 8: exceptional season, but he's been hurt the past few weeks 542 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 8: and he's not going to play tomorrow. So this is 543 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 8: the time where Poop Nakou is making a name for 544 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 8: himself in that Rookie of the Year sweep stakes, and 545 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 8: especially if he breaks those two NFL records, I think 546 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 8: you have to give him the award because that has 547 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 8: never been done before. I mean, the Rookie of the 548 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 8: Year receiving mark hasn't been broken since nineteen sixty So 549 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 8: you you probably have to give him Rookie of the 550 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 8: Year Mark Ivit when gets has the Rookie Receiving Out record. 551 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 8: I really do think that he's serve on the award. 552 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:44,959 Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you this. 553 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 2: Just saw Pooka and Nakua an hour ago tweet out 554 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 2: a picture of some food that he made that he 555 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 2: said was quote so good he could not leave the stove. 556 00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 2: He ate standing up and this is like a twelve Uh. 557 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 2: I don't even know how big the pot is, but 558 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 2: a ton of Kraft macaroni and cheese. So, I mean, 559 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 2: he might lose my vote for that minimum right there 560 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 2: as he's looking, I mean, look at this. He's got 561 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 2: a whole bowl, a whole big pot of Kraft macaroni 562 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 2: and cheese. Some stead, I mean, but they was still 563 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 2: Kraft macaroni and cheese being so good you can't leave 564 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 2: the throat as you don't know, I might lose. 565 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 1: I'm have to lose that bad CJ give me CJ Strout. 566 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: That's young, that's young man, fool hey, Tyler, let's stay 567 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: in the state of California, man, because I got admit 568 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 1: I didn't think that I didn't I didn't know the 569 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: Niners are gonna be this good. I really didn't when 570 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: they made the whole move at the quarterback position with 571 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: Trey Lance. I kind of bit back up against that. 572 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 1: But perty is showing they have weapons. You know they're 573 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: gonna have. They're gonna miss some guys on the defensive line, 574 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: but if they get home field advantage, there's no one 575 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 1: that's going in there in my opinion, in the NFC 576 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 1: and beating them. That brings me to the Baltimore Ravens 577 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: and a guy that you like for m v P 578 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: and L Jacks aka Lamar Jackson, that goes in there tomorrow. 579 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: They run the four football and that's what they're gonna do. 580 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: You give them a shot here tomorrow. Are the San 581 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: Francisco kind of really play their foot down like they 582 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 1: did Dallas? They went to Jacksonville put their foot down 583 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 1: like and then with and then did it in Philly 584 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: like three separate times. They've shown, Okay, where the big dogs, 585 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: y'all just some young puppies. Can the Ravens stop that tomorrow? 586 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 8: So the Ravens are the best team in the AFC, 587 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 8: but the forty nine Ers are the best team in 588 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 8: all of football. This team is a juggernaut right now. 589 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:32,719 Speaker 8: I really like what they do defensively. Now, the Ravens, 590 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,360 Speaker 8: Lamar Jackson has to be superman for them to win. 591 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 8: By far, are going to be the best player on 592 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 8: their team. Uh, but he's gonna have to run, run 593 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 8: the football for over eighty yards and you know, do 594 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 8: things what he does through the air. Now, yes, I 595 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 8: think the Ravens do have a chance because of Lamar Jackson. 596 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 8: He might be in the best player on the field, 597 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 8: which is going to be a whole lot of talented 598 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 8: football players. But it's just hard for me to see 599 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 8: a team beating Fancisco forty nine's right now. They have 600 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 8: an NFL long six game winning streak right now, and 601 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 8: they're playing an extremely high level and I think they're 602 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 8: going to be the representatives in the NFC in the 603 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 8: Super Bowl prop with So. 604 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 2: You just talked about that forty nine Ers team, Well, 605 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 2: the team that they beat three weeks ago forty two 606 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 2: to nineteen. The Eagles that haven won since they lost 607 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 2: to Dallas thirty three to thirteen, and we all saw 608 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 2: Drew Locke come back with drive ninety ninety ninety two 609 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 2: yards with DK Metcalf catching the ball behind his back, 610 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 2: through his legs. All type of wild crazy stuff was 611 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 2: going down that Monday night game. But the Eagles end 612 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 2: up losing twenty to seventeen. You had Nick Sirianni in 613 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 2: postgame are you know, in his weekly press availability talking about, yeah, 614 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 2: you know, we threw it up like that to aj 615 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 2: Brown hoping just to get a flag. 616 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: Look, three games in a row losing, that's not great. 617 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: If they lose to Tommy DeVito on Christmas Day, that's 618 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: a full on tail spin. That is a disaster, that. 619 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 2: Is an annihilation of a of epic proportions. Where are 620 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 2: you at this Eagles team that were flying high just 621 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 2: a few weeks ago. 622 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 8: I have to look at the defense. Last year they 623 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 8: had one of the best defenses in the NFL, and 624 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 8: now their defense can't stop and those lee It starts 625 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 8: with their pass rush. The Eagles had one of the 626 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 8: best pass rushing tandems in the NFL. They're not really 627 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 8: backing the quarterback with regularity this year. And then the secondary. 628 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 8: The secondary, Brad Berry and company, they have underachieved this 629 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 8: season and that's why the Eagles have been losing like 630 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 8: they have. Now. The good things Philadelphia, though, if they 631 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 8: went out they're going to win the nfcas that's all 632 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 8: they have to do. And they play the Giants twice 633 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 8: and then the Arizona Cardinals, so I believe they're still 634 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 8: going to be okay. The Giants the way they are, 635 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 8: they're the perfect remedy for the Eagles. 636 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: A bounce that to come on downshop, Damn Tyler, tell 637 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 1: them how you really feel. So I want to avoid 638 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: talking about my squad, but I mean, when you look 639 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 1: at the schedule, where the game is, it's the game 640 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: of tomorrow, it's the national game, is the Fox game? 641 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: Our great network has it. The Dolphins are at home. 642 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: The Cowboys are coming in to juggernaut offensive number one, 643 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: number two in the league and scoring at thirty two 644 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: and thirty points a game, respectively. Great players, great defense, 645 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: Dolphins getting some guys back that they rested, Tarik. It's 646 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: the field back again. But we know what, we know 647 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: what's going to happen. If the Dolphins don't win, it'll 648 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: be they can't beat the winning team. So I ask 649 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: you this, and I'm fine with that. I always say, 650 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: if you want the narrative to change in life, then 651 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: do something different and change the damn narrative, So that 652 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: if they win tomorrow, does that now change the narrative? 653 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: And it's like, Okay, they beat that team. They just 654 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: beat a team. They beat a team people were loving 655 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: just a week ago before they ran into the bus 656 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: all up in Buffalo. Does this change anything for you? 657 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: As far as tour Dolphins, Tyreek, maybe MVP they pull 658 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: this home win off tomorrow against the Cowboys. 659 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 8: Well, I like how you through the whole MVP in there. 660 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: Of course, of course, this is a proved. 661 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 8: Game for both teams. The Cowboys they are three and 662 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 8: four on the road. They are entirely different team on 663 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 8: the road. And the Dolphins, as you just alluded to, 664 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 8: they're zer to seven against teams with winning records. So 665 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 8: which team is going to show up and which team 666 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 8: is going to squash the narrative, the negative narrative that 667 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 8: they have. That's what I'm looking forward to in this 668 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 8: game tomorrow. Now you're gonna like this. I think the 669 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 8: Dolphins are going to win, just because I've seen the 670 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 8: Cowboys and how they perform on the road exactly Dolphins 671 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 8: Dolphins is going to be at home. They have those 672 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 8: feasters and the outside. As long as Tyreek kill can 673 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 8: stand in field and stay healthy, and TUA does not 674 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 8: turn the ball over. I like the Dolphins in this one. Now, 675 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 8: MVP candidate kyriek Kill is going to have to clip 676 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 8: that two thousand CIVR threshold for him to, you know, 677 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 8: be MVP over a player like Lamar Jackson or Brock 678 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 8: thirty or Christian McCaffery. 679 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: I'd just say this, if we're really installing Brockberty's MVP favorite, 680 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: then TUA talk about low I should be right behind them, 681 00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: thank you. 682 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 8: Like, I mean, it's the same Miam VP right now 683 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 8: is Lamar Jackson. 684 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 2: I agree. I mean, I'm with you on that one. 685 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 2: But I just the rock pretty thing. Sometimes it drives 686 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 2: me nuts. But you know what never drives me nuts, 687 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 2: Tyler Dragon. And as he comes in, look, I mean 688 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 2: double duty right now.

Oh no, Wow, 698 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he'll probably have something more and something 699 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 1: that's a hot thought. Yeah, Christmas dinner. But at the game. 700 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: That makes a lot more sense, all right.

He losing 730 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: number one overall pick. Who knows how long he'll be 731 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 1: out for, but it's definitely. 732 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 2: Out for today with a sprung with an ankle, that's ridiculous. 733 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 1: And that's multiple games. I've never seen an ankle be 734 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: one game. 735 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:32,879 Speaker 2: I mean, and plus with a guy like that as 736 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 2: tall as he is, he'll probably give him some time 737 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 2: to get. 738 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: His If you can't go right now, like you can't 739 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: go at some point tonight.

I got to see the video. 741 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 2: I'muna have to wait for the video to come out, 742 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 2: but I don't know where the ball boy was. 743 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: He was under Victor vim and Yama's foot. Yeah, that's 744 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 1: a tough one. 745 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 2: Hopefully he recovers quickly. But now let's go ahead, let's 746 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 2: get to it. It's sports Festivus, the. 747 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 3: Tradition of weekends with the airing of grievances. I got 748 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 3: a lot of problems with your people. 749 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: You're gonna hear about it. I'll go first, all right. 750 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 2: My biggest grievance with people right now around the NFL 751 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 2: is how we continually have these quarterbacks that start two 752 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 2: or three games and look decent and partly because of 753 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: the offensive players around them, and we crown them as 754 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:27,760 Speaker 2: the next thing coming. 755 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I was told that Jake Browning was the future. No, no, no, 756 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,760 Speaker 1: he's not. I'm sorry. Easton Stick No no no, Tommy 757 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 1: DeVito no no no, Josh Doobbs, no no no. There's 758 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 1: a reason why these guys are backups. Why don't we 759 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: build these people up? And then you know what happens 760 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 1: when Nick Mullins is starting over a healthy Josh Stbbs. 761 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: Nobody talks about it. It drives me crazy. VJ, You're 762 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: first grievance. I'm actually really glad that you just said 763 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 1: all of that because we've clashed on the backup quarterback thing, 764 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 1: where your thing is there's a such thing as the 765 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: best backup in the league, and I'm like, dude, the 766 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: backup don't matter unless you win. So I like that 767 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,359 Speaker 1: you did. I agree with everything that you just said, 768 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: but hey, backups, I'm gonna stick with quarterbacks because there's 769 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: something that happened to Cam Newton and I didn't have 770 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,319 Speaker 1: a voice, and I was really upset because I want 771 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,880 Speaker 1: to post videos about this because Cam's my guy and 772 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 1: I always will fight and defend Cam Newton. But the 773 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: simple fact that he told the truth about these labels 774 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 1: that we use on quarterbacks, and sometimes we forget the 775 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: ultimate goal is to win the damn game. Put points 776 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 1: on the board to win the game. Game manager system quarterback. 777 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 1: If Joe Montana played today, we'd call him a system 778 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 1: quarterback and we would say, well, it's only because he's 779 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: got Jerry Rice. But guess what, ladies and gentlemen, boys 780 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: and girls, are you idiots? It's all systems. Run and 781 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: Shoot Warren Moon System, West Coast, Walsh Montana System, Shotgun, 782 00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 1: k L Way, Jim Kelly, Dan Marino System, Greatest Show 783 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: Ons Turf, Kurt Warner System. It's all a system. You're 784 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,359 Speaker 1: supposed to fit in, a damn system that you play it. 785 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 1: We have to stop punishing people for fitting there. I 786 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: just admit, Hey, I'm gonna league Brock alone. He's not 787 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: the MVP, but I'm gonna leave them alone into the playoffs, playout. 788 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:24,359 Speaker 1: The guy's doing what he supposed to do. He's doing 789 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,319 Speaker 1: it and guess what else they're doing. They're winning. Can 790 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: we get rid of that? That's one of my grievouses, 791 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: I think one. 792 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,919 Speaker 9: Of my sports grievances for this year. I think it's 793 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 9: just kind of like it has to do with baseball, 794 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 9: you know. Being a Padres fan, it really felt like 795 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 9: the national media was really pushing us to trade one Soto, 796 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 9: saying it was like the best decision in the world. 797 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,800 Speaker 9: And also too, the Padres spent a bunch of money 798 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 9: last two years on free agents, and everybody cooked them, 799 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:58,359 Speaker 9: all of the major national writers cooked them. And yet 800 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 9: everyone this year who's talking about the Dodgers spending a 801 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:05,440 Speaker 9: billion dollars in free agency, saying it's good for baseball. 802 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 1: This is great for baseball. They're spending money left and right. 803 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 9: Why is it when a small market team like the 804 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:13,320 Speaker 9: Padres tries to do the same thing all of a sudden, 805 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 9: it's bad. 806 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: I think that's my biggest grievance.

A lot of times great players actually 829 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 1: dumb other great players down because the system has to 830 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,439 Speaker 1: run through them. Everything's about them, and then we start 831 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 1: to criticize other people. Make players better as one of 832 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: my other terms, one of my grievouses with sports, I 833 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 1: think we need to get rid of. 834 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 2: Coming up next, we'll get into the MVP conversation.

So we have 846 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 2: a matchup this week night game one of the one 847 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 2: of the games on an Island, the forty nine Ers 848 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:10,360 Speaker 2: and the Ravens that very well could determine who. 849 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 1: The MVP of the NFL will be. 850 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 2: Then, quite honestly, if you look at another one to 851 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 2: call up the Cowboys and the Dolphins to another two 852 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 2: guys who are really up high in the MVP standings 853 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 2: with Tua Tyreek and Dak Prescott. But my thing, we 854 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 2: got into this with Tyler Dragon a little bit as well. 855 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 2: If you have Brock Party as your MVP favorite, why 856 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,400 Speaker 2: would you not have Tua Tongue Bailoa. They have the 857 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 2: same exact well, it's also the same exact argument. It's 858 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,320 Speaker 2: the same argument to me, I don't both running backs 859 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:43,240 Speaker 2: have twenty touchdowns? 860 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 1: Right? 861 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:46,719 Speaker 2: But I mean, I'll watched the game that Arizona game, 862 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey was so wide open. He had time to 863 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 2: fall down because Brock Party threw a bad ball and catch, 864 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 2: catch the ball, fall down, get up and still score. 865 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: Stumbled to get up like he was struggling to pop 866 00:41:59,160 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: back up. 867 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 2: And those are the type of things that you're also 868 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:03,879 Speaker 2: seeing out of this Miami offense when you look at 869 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 2: the Tyreek Hill and how I mean he had the 870 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 2: one where they said Tour threw a bad balls. I know, 871 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 2: actually I ran a bad route and then I had 872 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:11,879 Speaker 2: to look around over one. 873 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: Shoulder, over the other shoulder, over the other shoulder. 874 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 2: Still caught it, because I mean, that kid's got incredible 875 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 2: speed and obviously with most dirt and a chan and 876 00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:22,720 Speaker 2: the other weapons that they have over there, Jaylen Wadam, 877 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 2: you heard Tua in his press conference the other day 878 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:26,479 Speaker 2: talking about I'm only good if I have these guys 879 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 2: around me, tongue in cheek obviously. And you heard rock 880 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 2: Party this week say I think Christian McCaffrey should be 881 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 2: the MVP. 882 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: Now. I think he was pretty serious. 883 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 2: About that one, though not necessarily as tongue in cheek 884 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 2: as toua. But right now, as he stands, DJ, who 885 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 2: is your NFL. 886 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 1: MVP right now? For me? Is Tour two of the 887 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: MVP right now? Because and just hear me out, ladies 888 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:51,320 Speaker 1: and gentlemen, we saw what brock Party looked like without 889 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: his weapon. We saw Deebo's there. Guy. I know everybody 890 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: loves Christian, but if you take Deebo off the field, 891 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 1: I kip keen to your running back. When deebos on 892 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 1: the field, it opens everything up for everybody. Kiddle Kittle's 893 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 1: looking like the Kiddle we saw three four years ago 894 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,760 Speaker 1: before those little knick knack injuries and then a season 895 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: in the injury kind of set in there. They lost. 896 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 1: They lost Trent Williams, who I believe is probably the 897 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 1: best left tackle in football. We saw what perty looked like. 898 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 1: We also saw tour with no Tyreek. Okay, a four 899 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: week to prepare three offensive linemen, out receiver, I mean, 900 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 1: defensive back, everybody else, and he's still with up there. 901 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 1: I know it's the bum ass Jets. They still sport 902 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 1: the number five ranked defense in football and people think 903 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: they have the best secondary in football. And he's still 904 00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:44,600 Speaker 1: would and hung thirty on them with no Tyreek on 905 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 1: the field. Oh, Jalen Wada, where you been? Oh well, 906 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 1: I'll just go for one sixty five today. I'll burn 907 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 1: this corner and leave him laying on the ground for 908 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: all the people. That's Oh, they only just throw to Tyreek. 909 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 1: You're supposed to throw to your best damn player. That's stupid. 910 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,360 Speaker 1: But I think it's two right now. In my opinion, 911 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna show that tomorrow. I'llbeit at home. 912 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: Tyreek's back some defensive guys back two lining back to me, 913 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 1: he would be MVP Number two for me would be 914 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. I would have McCaffrey before I would even 915 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 1: have Party. But if you want Party at three, fine, 916 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna argue with that. So for me one 917 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,240 Speaker 1: two three is ta Lamar and Party. 918 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 2: I'd have to go with Lamar Jackson. I think a 919 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 2: lot of the arguments you made for Toore also true 920 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 2: of Lamar. But Lamar is he is the engine of 921 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 2: that team. Of course, he's the of that team like 922 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 2: he's I mean, and to me, when you look at 923 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 2: the way Lamar Jackson plays, and I get it that 924 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 2: his passing numbers aren't necessarily up to snuff with the 925 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:48,400 Speaker 2: guys like Party or Tua or whatever. Receivers, but I 926 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:52,440 Speaker 2: mean a receivers. Odell Beckham was their big off season acquisition. 927 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: Right. 928 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 2: They did surround him with a few other guys, But 929 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 2: you know Mark Andrews goes down his favorite target, well 930 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 2: you know what happens. Keep on show, right, seventeen and 931 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 2: one against the NFC in his career. Two NFC teams 932 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 2: went in there. Detroit was one of them. You know 933 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 2: what he did, just ran ran rough shot all over 934 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 2: that defense. And I think you know, Tyler Dragons said it. 935 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 2: Now I'm just quoting him, but he go ahead and 936 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 2: said the Ravens will have the best player on the 937 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 2: field when Baltimore is on offense. And I you know, 938 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:24,280 Speaker 2: I tend to agree. But uh, in the San Francisco matchup, 939 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:26,399 Speaker 2: when you look at me, I mean they I mean 940 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:31,720 Speaker 2: San Francisco guy with Bosau, the younger Bosa, Nick Bosa. 941 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 2: There you go, like I'm sitting there watching the Chargers 942 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,240 Speaker 2: and Joey Bosa is on IR. But yeah, Nick Bosa, 943 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 2: Fred Warner. You know they got some They got some 944 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 2: dudes over there, Dre Greenlaw who had the beef with 945 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 2: Dom Desandro. 946 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: Who's you know, see, you saw you got a business 947 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:46,520 Speaker 1: spend at the rest of the year from the side. 948 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:48,879 Speaker 1: You know what, you know what, I know you you're 949 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 1: happy about it. I get an Eagles hoing four since 950 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: Sandro is going down. Yeah, they got a little slum 951 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 1: going on. Lamar Lamar, So listen, I'm a Lamar guy, man. 952 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 1: I chanted all year long. Got soap boxed a pompom 953 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 1: for him to get his bread. Anybody that said anything different, 954 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: I went at him, especially when you talk about, oh 955 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 1: the injuries. We all know if he could have come back, 956 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 1: if they were if he had a contract, he would 957 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 1: have come back. You wouldn't have come back. Your boy 958 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't have come back. I wouldn't have come back, Maryoo. 959 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 1: Nobody would have came back and played or what might 960 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 1: have been an if he need without guaranteed money on 961 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,760 Speaker 1: the table, go argue with somebody else about that. Start 962 00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,320 Speaker 1: with the flip, flame and fluff and stop front. Lamar, 963 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:33,439 Speaker 1: in my opinion, would be the MVP over Tour if 964 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 1: he had a receiver that would help those passing yards, 965 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:40,959 Speaker 1: because those passing yards do matter. Odell Beckham Junior tried 966 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,280 Speaker 1: to warn you guys in my one seventeen vessel Sports 967 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: Uncle Vj's NFL picks Vegas had his over under a 968 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 1: five seventy five and yards like they knew. There's a 969 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 1: lot of people that knew. I love say, I'm still 970 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: with Jay Flower, but he is a rookie. He's still 971 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,400 Speaker 1: figuring out. Some Sundays it looks like, okay, he's got it. 972 00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,799 Speaker 1: He's figuring out then it some Sundays. Okay, he has 973 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 1: a seen that type of scheme before, but when he 974 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 1: sees the next time, he'll be better as it goes on. 975 00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:07,320 Speaker 1: But Lamar has to do everything. And let's get pribes 976 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: to Isaiah likely. Let's get props to that young man. 977 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 1: Come Heah coming in as a tight end for Mark 978 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 1: Andrews and producing getting open run great routes can block. Listen, 979 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 1: this is a this is a John Harball coach team. 980 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:26,480 Speaker 1: Their defense is back Hamilton at the safety from Nordre 981 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,880 Speaker 1: Dame as a monster. They got linebackers, they got rush guys, 982 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:32,960 Speaker 1: they got they rotate defensive linemen in like you're watching 983 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,320 Speaker 1: the Michigan game. You can see it's in their blood. 984 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 1: They don't they don't very they don't very far from 985 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 1: uh how they coach. You know what I'm saying, as 986 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:44,120 Speaker 1: far as the physicality goes, That's why I think they 987 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:47,479 Speaker 1: have a shot. Monday night, I will be locked in live. 988 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 1: I won't wait on that one. I'll watch that one 989 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,360 Speaker 1: live after you and I are done in here filling 990 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 1: in on Christmas Day when we go home. That's on 991 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:57,840 Speaker 1: the screen, live. Man, they got a shot because of 992 00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 1: my opinion, Lamar Jackson might be the best player in 993 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 1: the league. To me, look when he's on and when 994 00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 1: he might be the best player in the league, it's 995 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: either him or Tyreek. 996 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:10,640 Speaker 2: They're the best weapons in football. I think Tyreek right 997 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 2: now is I was thinking about this earlier today. Who 998 00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 2: are the Hall of Famers that we're watching right now? 999 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 1: Right because I think you know who are the Hall 1000 00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: of famers in the league right now? Because we know 1001 00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:22,839 Speaker 1: if we talk about it all the time. 1002 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 2: I think Matthew Stafford is what maybe thinking about this 1003 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 2: initially because I don't think he's a Hall of Famer 1004 00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 2: right now, but I mean I also didn't think that 1005 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 2: he was going to be able to lead the Rams 1006 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 2: to where they are right now. In a fun note 1007 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,759 Speaker 2: about him, you know he had Calvin Johnson broke the 1008 00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:42,160 Speaker 2: receiving record, right Matthew Stafford was the quarterback, second second guy, 1009 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 2: upper cup. Matthew Stafford was just quarterback. Is probably gonna 1010 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 2: break the rookie receiving record. Matthew Stafford was the quarterback. 1011 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 1: I don't know, guys, I'm noticing an I'm noticing a 1012 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 1: trend here. I'm glad. I'm glad but you know, I 1013 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,880 Speaker 1: was just thinking about that, the one that I feel 1014 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,240 Speaker 1: like I can sit here and nail right now if 1015 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 1: he walked out a hit by a bust and retire 1016 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 1: FRO football tomorrow, Tyreek Hill is walking into the Hall 1017 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:08,960 Speaker 1: of Fame. I like Tyreek and to me, Matthews in 1018 00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: I was working on this the other night. I call 1019 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 1: have a new TV show coming out, and I called 1020 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:16,520 Speaker 1: this segment Hill's A'll die on and number two right here, 1021 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,760 Speaker 1: I've wrote this already, guys, Matthew Stafford's a Hall of Famer. 1022 00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford is top eleven and touchdowns, He's got a 1023 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. He has more touchdowns than lay Moon, United's 1024 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: Montana Fouts, Kelly Young, Bradshaw Warner, and Joe Namas Like, 1025 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,879 Speaker 1: I mean, could like stop. I understand what it looked 1026 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,359 Speaker 1: like in Detroit, But you guys, a lot of that 1027 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: was not his fault. Yes, he the interceptions, I get it, 1028 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 1: But when you play with a bad team and you're 1029 00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 1: playing from behind it you have to throw a whole 1030 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: lot more. You're gonna throw more interception. Brent Farve is 1031 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 1: the all time leader in interception. Guess how many Super 1032 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 1: Bowls he has one. He's only got one, So there's 1033 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 1: a lot I can spit off and I won't bore 1034 00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:57,319 Speaker 1: you guys with it, but I have him there. I 1035 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 1: think Tyreek is all Hall of Famer. Think Williams is 1036 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:05,479 Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer quarterbacks not old guys, right, because 1037 00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:07,880 Speaker 1: we know a Rod's in no, no double check. So 1038 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 1: we got to go like what five four years in 1039 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 1: six years in justin Jefferson just tracking that way, he's 1040 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 1: tracking that way, justin Jefferson, Dak, how about that one, 1041 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. 1042 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,839 Speaker 2: No, really, that's not a Hall of Fame. Okay, I'm 1043 00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:24,839 Speaker 2: just Matthew Stafford is. That's what I mean. He wasn't 1044 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:26,120 Speaker 2: even the best quarterback in his division. 1045 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 1: But you know, I mean will you will probably will 1046 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,080 Speaker 1: probably arguing that one to the day we the Good 1047 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:31,879 Speaker 1: Lord calls us home. 1048 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 2: I mean, you literally haven't listed on the page that 1049 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:35,719 Speaker 2: says Hills I will die on. 1050 00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, what about I'm not joking. It's a segment. 1051 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,600 Speaker 1: It's a new segment I'm working on. Uh So if 1052 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 1: that gets a ring, does that change your mind? I 1053 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:48,759 Speaker 1: mean no, I still need they would have to be more. 1054 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 1: I have to see a little bit more. He needs 1055 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:54,280 Speaker 1: more yards, just because at this point, like the stats 1056 00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: are a little unfair because the game has changed kind 1057 00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 1: of fundamentally from what we're used to seeing. Of course, 1058 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:00,400 Speaker 1: we grew up with absolute. 1059 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, there were the games that we knew and saw 1060 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,279 Speaker 2: like that demonte kz had on Michael Pittman would have 1061 00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:08,520 Speaker 2: been on knocked up or not knocked up hard jacked up. 1062 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 1: There, you got jacked up. Yep, I got knocked up. 1063 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 1: That's that's something I was about to say. Yeah, yeah, no, no, 1064 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,800 Speaker 1: that's not this program, lady, that's not this Fox. I 1065 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:23,279 Speaker 1: got a running back for you, Ezekiel Elliott. Now, okay, 1066 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:26,319 Speaker 1: I've heard people always ring of honor. I've heard people 1067 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 1: say because he's a Hall of Famer, because the total yards, 1068 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:30,839 Speaker 1: that he's a mass and stuff like that. I can't. 1069 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of maybe some no defensive guys. 1070 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:37,000 Speaker 1: This is easy. Michael Parsons, he's not a Hall of 1071 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:38,839 Speaker 1: Famer yet. I know he's not yet. But you said, 1072 00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 1: we're trending. But that's what I'm no. 1073 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 2: I'm talking about if you retired today, would you be 1074 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame. 1075 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 1: I think if Tyree decided to we. 1076 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 2: Were looking at you, well, I'm saying, but like obviously 1077 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:50,759 Speaker 2: I got like Aaron Rodgers is going to be in 1078 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:52,040 Speaker 2: the whole fame, but he's not playing right. Oh so 1079 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 2: you got Tyreek in the hall right now, right now, 1080 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:57,000 Speaker 2: I think, right now today, and he's really the one, 1081 00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:00,400 Speaker 2: the one guy I could be like, Yep, yep, that's it. 1082 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 2: That's it, my Tyreek Hill. 1083 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 1: I think a ring in Miami would solidify. I'm I'm 1084 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:09,319 Speaker 1: on the border right now because I've just I saw 1085 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,280 Speaker 1: Mark art Monk take forever to get in. Gary Clark 1086 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: got Andre Reid. Receivers I grew up watching that, honestly 1087 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:19,439 Speaker 1: would trash these defensive backs and these defensive schemes being 1088 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,400 Speaker 1: especially that you can't touch them. And Duper and Clayton 1089 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,080 Speaker 1: still aren't in and they were Marinos running mates. I don't, 1090 00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:27,439 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't get that part. But I don't vote. 1091 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:28,439 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't have a vote. 1092 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,400 Speaker 2: So Kansas City's got too with Travis Kelsey and Patrick Mahomes. 1093 00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:34,839 Speaker 2: But the one that, yeah, yeah, definitely gus On put 1094 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 2: this on Hills that Martin will die on. Mike Evans 1095 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 2: is a Hall of Famer and he's not gonna get in. 1096 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 2: But Mike Evans should be all get in. 1097 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:46,920 Speaker 1: He should be. I mean all those names you just lifted, right, 1098 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:49,319 Speaker 1: I know, but Mike Evans he's getting He's never had 1099 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: less than a thousand yards. He's caught passes from all 1100 00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,399 Speaker 1: types of people right now, I mean even right now. 1101 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,520 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay is supposed to be terrible, but you know 1102 00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 2: what they got Mike frickin Evans, and that dude has 1103 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 2: been a dom i'minating players since he walked into the league. 1104 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:05,319 Speaker 2: But I think Mike Evans should be in the Hall 1105 00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,440 Speaker 2: of Fame. But I don't know if you will actually 1106 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 2: get in because of it. It is a logjam at 1107 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:13,399 Speaker 2: wide receivers that is long and wide, and it's tough 1108 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:14,920 Speaker 2: to is tough for me, but. 1109 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,319 Speaker 1: They let more in every year. Though they're letting like 1110 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,920 Speaker 1: fifteen twelve guys in now. Mike Evans will get in. 1111 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: It'll be like twelve to fifteen years from now, but 1112 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 1: Mike Evans will get into the Hall of Fame. 1113 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 2: Christmas Day is quickly approaching, and uh, that spells bad 1114 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,040 Speaker 2: news for one of these sports leagues that generally depends 1115 00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:34,359 Speaker 2: on it. 1116 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:35,160 Speaker 1: Martin VJ. 1117 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,399 Speaker 2: Brought to you by Progressive Insurance Progressive makes bundling easy 1118 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,560 Speaker 2: and unaffordable.

That is your Christmas 1139 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 2: Day slate or the NFL, and I get it, Raiders 1140 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 2: and Chiefs might be a stinker, Giants and Eagles might 1141 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 2: be a stinker. But you know what, I don't imagine 1142 00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,879 Speaker 2: that too many people are gonna be flipping over from 1143 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 2: Warriors and Nuggets or even Celtics Lakers seventy six. 1144 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,319 Speaker 1: Ers in the heat. I mean, the NBA had a. 1145 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:13,040 Speaker 2: Real opportunity just two three years ago after COVID happened, where. 1146 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: They could have really started the season. 1147 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:18,560 Speaker 2: Right now, if you start the season on Christmas Day 1148 00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 2: with that end season tournament, mind you, I think people 1149 00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,719 Speaker 2: would be interested, people will be tuned in, people will 1150 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:24,279 Speaker 2: be locked in. 1151 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:28,440 Speaker 1: But right now it's I mean, it's just a secondary story. 1152 00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 1: It's fundamentally just a secondary story. Like Victor win Bin 1153 00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:35,239 Speaker 1: Yama and Kate cunninghams. I did this the other day 1154 00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:38,960 Speaker 1: with Kerry Rhodes. Their records as of last week was 1155 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:42,320 Speaker 1: six and forty four. Yep. You know it's like Anthony Edwards, 1156 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:44,840 Speaker 1: he's bawling. You know what I say, Zion there for fifteen. 1157 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:46,840 Speaker 2: There's something like fifteen and eleven something like that is 1158 00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 2: what it was last week when I just looked it up. 1159 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,960 Speaker 2: But still we're not seeing the juice out of the 1160 00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:56,799 Speaker 2: NBA that were used to seeing, and a lot of it. 1161 00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 1: I mean the NFL. 1162 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:01,520 Speaker 2: You didn't used to play on Chris then Alvin Kamara 1163 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,319 Speaker 2: had a six touchdown game against the Vikings and they said, 1164 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:06,239 Speaker 2: you know what, I think we like it. 1165 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's Mike Yid's life. Cereal. Uh No, they're gonna 1166 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:14,080 Speaker 1: get crushed and rightfully so. The NBA did this to themselves. 1167 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 1: They've done this to themselves over the years. In the NFL. 1168 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,440 Speaker 1: Are the big bully, They're the big business sports bullies 1169 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 1: on the block. They do what they want to do, 1170 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:24,920 Speaker 1: when they want to do it, how they want to 1171 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:26,839 Speaker 1: do it, where they want to do it, and who 1172 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 1: the hell they want to do it too. The NBA 1173 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:35,160 Speaker 1: used to have Christmas Day to itself on lock growing up, 1174 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:39,240 Speaker 1: Jordan and the Knicks or when Shaq hit the league, 1175 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:43,080 Speaker 1: Penny and Penny and Shack against the Knicks, are against 1176 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 1: Charles Barkley and the Suns. Some of the games I 1177 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 1: can remember the the Jazz with Super Song. I mean 1178 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 1: the Jazz would stalking them alone, would play Seattle, or 1179 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: they would play the Spurs with David Robinson or you 1180 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,920 Speaker 1: play the SuperSonics with Gary Payton and Sean camp Like 1181 00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:01,360 Speaker 1: they made sure they matched up the biggest stars. You 1182 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 1: got two games. It used to be one. I'm from 1183 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 1: that era of one Christmas night game. That's it eight 1184 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 1: pm Eastern And when the Bulls were winning championships and 1185 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 1: Jordan was running the league. It was the Bulls against 1186 00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:15,560 Speaker 1: filling the blank, but they used to own it. You 1187 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 1: couldn't wait to sit down. Then they added to the 1188 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 1: second game, did a third game? Okay? Cool? Load the 1189 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 1: games up. Even up until fifteen years ago. You live 1190 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 1: on the East West coast, the game started at nine am. 1191 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,080 Speaker 1: You're unwrapping gifts and eating scrambled a's and bacon while 1192 00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:31,720 Speaker 1: you're watching NBA. It was dope when I first moved 1193 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 1: out here. But like Martin said, the NFL looked and said, hmm, 1194 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 1: we kind of want some of that money over there. 1195 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 1: We kind of want some of that juice over there. 1196 00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 1: Let's start playing Christmas Day games. And now, like you said, 1197 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,040 Speaker 1: they may be stinkers, or the Raiders may show up 1198 00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:49,400 Speaker 1: and play. You think they got their coach. Chiefs can't 1199 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,360 Speaker 1: move the ball that well. They look good late in 1200 00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 1: the game, second half against the Patriots, but they struggled 1201 00:57:53,800 --> 00:57:56,840 Speaker 1: in the first half against the Patriots. The Giants the Eagles, 1202 00:57:56,880 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: guess what, it's a rivalry game, It's Christmas Day. The 1203 00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 1: Giants will show up and play guys. I don't think 1204 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 1: they're getting blown away. We're trying to figure out what's 1205 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 1: going on with the Eagles. And if you get to 1206 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 1: that night cap the Ravens l Jacks, the Niners party 1207 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 1: Shanahan McCaffrey, I don't know if I'll watch it. I 1208 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:17,919 Speaker 1: may dip in on the Lakers Celtic game. I may, 1209 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,680 Speaker 1: but it's football all day is and there are a 1210 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 1: few bowl games on if I'm not mistaken, and there's 1211 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 1: college hoops on like the NBA. 1212 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:30,480 Speaker 2: Man, it's just the fantished on Christmas Day. Sorry, well, 1213 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 2: luckily next year it'll be on a Tuesday. And then 1214 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:36,680 Speaker 2: the end of the already established and came out made 1215 00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:39,160 Speaker 2: a report that they're not going to schedule Tuesday Christmas Day. 1216 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 1: That's right, I saw that, but if they did, it'd 1217 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 1: be blown out of the water. Brandon Truvi just textas this. 1218 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 2: He says he feels like the Ncason Tournament was too 1219 00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 2: early in the season with the Christmas start. Why not 1220 00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:52,560 Speaker 2: have the final four coincide with All Star weekend? Which 1221 00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:53,720 Speaker 2: is a great idea. 1222 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:55,960 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what I said when this first came out. 1223 00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:57,720 Speaker 1: I said, I don't mind it, but why are they 1224 00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,280 Speaker 1: doing it in November? Do this like a January February 1225 00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 1: or replace the All Star stuff with this and then 1226 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 1: boom do it. Then you did it way too early, 1227 00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:11,320 Speaker 1: sucked everybody, not everybody, but sucked enough people into people 1228 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 1: thought it was great. I still don't think it was. 1229 00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 1: It's proof is in to put it. Look how the 1230 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: league Look? Look what happened after the tournament ended, Like 1231 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:22,560 Speaker 1: God's kind of dropped their garden. Mari, you made a 1232 00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 1: point about Lebron saying, when you have alpha males playing 1233 00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 1: for something, what the hell are you playing for before this? Then, 1234 00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 1: like you get paid for all these games? You get 1235 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 1: paid for all these games, dude, Like you're playing now 1236 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 1: to have a good record so you can get home 1237 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:41,040 Speaker 1: court in May and then finally, you know, possibly get 1238 00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:43,320 Speaker 1: to the finals in June with home court. Like it 1239 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 1: just it fell flat. It felt good for a minute 1240 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:49,800 Speaker 1: and then it felt like really flat. It's like when 1241 00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 1: you eat bad food you feel good eating it for 1242 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:54,800 Speaker 1: a second. But when you get home and sit on 1243 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:58,320 Speaker 1: that sofa in that grease and processed fast food sits 1244 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 1: in you, you're like, ah, yeah, I shouldn't have done that. 1245 01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 1: That's how the nd season tournament feels to me. Now 1246 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:05,480 Speaker 1: I got. 1247 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:09,720 Speaker 2: One more festivist grievance to AIRSPO, I say one.

And I love the NFL, but 1311 01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 1: it just feels like I gotta buy something.

When you're at when you are 1326 01:03:52,960 --> 01:03:56,400 Speaker 1: at Channel seven on election night, everybody brings in food 1327 01:03:56,440 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 1: because you know you're not going home for hours and 1328 01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:01,280 Speaker 1: hours and hours and you're waiting the votes counted and 1329 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:03,840 Speaker 1: you know you're seeing you know they're moving the stats 1330 01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:06,160 Speaker 1: and you know that all of that. Okay, cool, got it, 1331 01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:07,360 Speaker 1: got it. 1332 01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 2: Let's keep that for elections because ultimately this game has 1333 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 2: decided on the field. 1334 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:15,520 Speaker 1: All of this. The Cowboys got this percentage and built 1335 01:04:15,600 --> 01:04:17,800 Speaker 1: like you know, I just, oh my goodness, got a 1336 01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:20,720 Speaker 1: life percentage of making the playoffs. It goes up and down. 1337 01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:23,600 Speaker 1: Just show me where they are as far as seeding goes, 1338 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 1: and then showed me the rest of the schedule and 1339 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:27,480 Speaker 1: I'll go and I'll take that. I can do that. 1340 01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:30,240 Speaker 1: It's it's the most useless thing in the sports broadcast 1341 01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:33,959 Speaker 1: besides win probability. The win probability is probably the most 1342 01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:37,360 Speaker 1: useless thing because it does it just holds no bearing. 1343 01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:39,680 Speaker 1: It holds no bearing on the game. They got that 1344 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:43,120 Speaker 1: from fantasy football, but it just what does it matter 1345 01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:47,320 Speaker 1: if the Chargers have a seventy six win percentage or 1346 01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 1: win probability at at with seven minutes left in the 1347 01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:53,720 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, because there's still seven minutes to play in 1348 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 1: the game. 1349 01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:56,280 Speaker 2: Do I need to know that the Raiders have a 1350 01:04:57,800 --> 01:05:00,640 Speaker 2: win probability at halftime when there are forty good to nothing? 1351 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:02,640 Speaker 1: I don't think so. No, I don't think so. 1352 01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 2: I think I can pretty much see it, and to 1353 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:08,360 Speaker 2: see it right there all right, tartly after the show, 1354 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 2: our podcast will be going up.

Yeah? 1363 01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 6: We got an NFL action going on right now. They 1364 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:34,960 Speaker 6: have reached the half in Los Angeles and the Bills 1365 01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 6: with a fourteen to ten lead over the LA Chargers. 1366 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:41,720 Speaker 6: Josh Allen with a long touchdown strike to Gabe Davis 1367 01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:44,720 Speaker 6: to get their first touchdown of the game as they 1368 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 6: are up by four at the break end. This is 1369 01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:50,160 Speaker 6: a game that they really do need as they are 1370 01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:53,880 Speaker 6: tied for Indianapolis and Houston, who occupy the final. 1371 01:05:53,640 --> 01:05:54,800 Speaker 7: Two wildcard spots. 1372 01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:58,880 Speaker 6: Brother just a half game ahead of Pittsburgh and Cincinnati. 1373 01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:01,600 Speaker 6: They are on the outside looking at the number eight spots. 1374 01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:04,680 Speaker 6: So when here would go a long way, especially after 1375 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:08,360 Speaker 6: the Steelers pounded the Cincinnati Bengals earlier today thirty four 1376 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:12,919 Speaker 6: to eleven. Mason Rudolph two touchdown passes, including this long 1377 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:14,760 Speaker 6: one to George Pickens. 1378 01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:16,919 Speaker 1: Mason RUDOLPHI on the guy in the empties. The set 1379 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:19,560 Speaker 1: pass over the middle list caught Pive Pickens. He's on 1380 01:06:19,680 --> 01:06:22,800 Speaker 1: his way. He's hit the forty, the fifty, the forty 1381 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:23,680 Speaker 1: five to forty. 1382 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:28,280 Speaker 11: Here comes George Pickens all the way for a pitch perk. 1383 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:31,680 Speaker 1: Steelers toutch down eighty six yards. 1384 01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:35,320 Speaker 6: That was the Steelers radio network with the call. So 1385 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:39,440 Speaker 6: that win has the Steelers leap frogging into the number 1386 01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:42,440 Speaker 6: nine spot in the AFC playoff standings. The Bengals, that 1387 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 6: loss really hurt them as they dropped from number six 1388 01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:50,919 Speaker 6: to number ten in the playoff standings. Other football action 1389 01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:53,240 Speaker 6: at the college level we have two bowl games in 1390 01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:55,120 Speaker 6: action right now.

Right now, it's now forty four to three 1395 01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:11,360 Speaker 6: South Alabama. The Jaguars just scoring again. They're about to 1396 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:13,400 Speaker 6: kick connextra point to try to make it forty five 1397 01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:17,440 Speaker 6: to three. They've got about eleven minutes ago in the 1398 01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:21,000 Speaker 6: third quarter. Every other Bull game on the schedule has 1399 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:24,640 Speaker 6: gone final.

In the famous Idaho Potato Bowl. 1405 01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 6: NBA Action Lakers pounding the thunder right now, ninety to seventy. 1406 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:51,520 Speaker 6: They're out midway through the third quarter. Cavaliers and Bulls. 1407 01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:53,720 Speaker 6: This one's all knotted up at sixty five they got 1408 01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:56,960 Speaker 6: six minutes ago in the third. In the fourth, it's 1409 01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,920 Speaker 6: the Utah Jazz on top of the Toronto Raptors, won sixteen, 1410 01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:02,840 Speaker 6: one oh six. They got about three forty seven to 1411 01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 6: go there. In Toronto, the Pistons looks like they're losing. 1412 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 6: Streak's gonna continue, although they still got some time left, 1413 01:08:09,200 --> 01:08:11,800 Speaker 6: but they're down fifteen seven and a half minutes ago. 1414 01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:14,440 Speaker 6: In the fourth quarter, it's the Nets leading Detroit one 1415 01:08:14,480 --> 01:08:17,160 Speaker 6: oh nine to ninety four, six and a half to 1416 01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 6: go in the fourth quarter. In Atlanta, the Grizzlies with 1417 01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:21,680 Speaker 6: a one oh nine, one oh six lead against the 1418 01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,839 Speaker 6: Hawks and they're just about to go final in New Orleans, 1419 01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:27,400 Speaker 6: where the Rockets a four point lead against the Pelicans 1420 01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:30,000 Speaker 6: one oh six, one o two, eight point three seconds 1421 01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:35,160 Speaker 6: to go. So uh, this game likely over some games 1422 01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:36,960 Speaker 6: that have gone far. Actually, we have a couple of 1423 01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,960 Speaker 6: halftime as well, Mavericks seventy two sixty six over the 1424 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 6: Spurs and the Warriors beating the Trailblazer's fifty seven to 1425 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 6: forty six.

Celtics over the Clippers won 1427 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:52,320 Speaker 6: forty five to one oh eight Nuggets beat the Hornets 1428 01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:55,120 Speaker 6: one O two ninety five in the magic pull away 1429 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 6: from the Pacers one seventeen to one ten. 1430 01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:01,280 Speaker 1: Back to you guys, thanks Kevin, and no, I did 1431 01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:02,599 Speaker 1: not have the I had. 1432 01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:06,240 Speaker 2: I had the under in South Alabama, eastern Michigan and 1433 01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:08,400 Speaker 2: the over in northwestern Utah. 1434 01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 1: So it's not going to be a happy Christmas. We 1435 01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:16,160 Speaker 1: are losing money by the minute over here sitting in 1436 01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:19,160 Speaker 1: this chair. A lot of these ball games haven't been 1437 01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 1: very profitable. 1438 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:22,479 Speaker 2: They're coming to you live from the tire rack dot 1439 01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 2: Com studios. 1440 01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:23,880 Speaker 6: Uh. 1441 01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:25,840 Speaker 1: But you know, we talked to Tyler Dragon about this 1442 01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:27,360 Speaker 1: an hour ago. Uh. 1443 01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:29,360 Speaker 2: I don't know why people are trying to get cute 1444 01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:33,679 Speaker 2: with this. But the Houston Texans last year won two games. 1445 01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:35,679 Speaker 1: That's it. That's the list. 1446 01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:38,000 Speaker 2: They won two games, one of them being the last 1447 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:39,639 Speaker 2: game of the year in the last game of Lovey 1448 01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:43,760 Speaker 2: Smith's NFL head coaching career, and that allowed them the 1449 01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,160 Speaker 2: second overall pick, in which they took CJ. 1450 01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:47,719 Speaker 1: Stroud and CJ. 1451 01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:50,799 Speaker 2: Stroud, despite missing the last two weeks with the missing 1452 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:54,439 Speaker 2: this week and last week with the concussion, should be 1453 01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:58,160 Speaker 2: the rookie of the year. I understand that Pooka Nakua 1454 01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 2: is playing well and he's gonna instead it a rookie 1455 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:02,120 Speaker 2: receiving record. 1456 01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:03,040 Speaker 1: But c J. 1457 01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:06,960 Speaker 2: Stroud has led this team, this Houston Texas team, from 1458 01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 2: two and fifteen to the playoff hunt. 1459 01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:15,400 Speaker 1: They are currently tied v days Christmas in two days. Okay, 1460 01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:19,479 Speaker 1: they are tied atop the AFC South with Jacksonville, a 1461 01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 1: team that a lot of people thought was gonna run 1462 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,479 Speaker 1: away with this thing. Why they think that Jacksonville's gonna 1463 01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:26,120 Speaker 1: run away with this thing because they expected the Houston 1464 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:29,200 Speaker 1: Texas to be absolutely terrible. The cast of characters is 1465 01:10:29,600 --> 01:10:32,599 Speaker 1: much the same. Besides, you had Will Anderson on defense 1466 01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:33,120 Speaker 1: and c J. 1467 01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:37,360 Speaker 2: Stroud on offense, Devin Secretary, but no real world beaters 1468 01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:40,200 Speaker 2: out there. Nico Collins, Michigan guy, was not necessarily a 1469 01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:42,599 Speaker 2: number one receiver prior to this moment. 1470 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 1: But c J. 1471 01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:47,920 Speaker 2: Stroud should be the offensive rookie of the year. And 1472 01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:51,599 Speaker 2: I don't really understand arguments for anybody else at this point. 1473 01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:55,479 Speaker 1: Well, that's because what Nicole is doing would be record 1474 01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:58,920 Speaker 1: breaking if he ends up breaking the record for receiving 1475 01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 1: yards as a rookie, As Tyler Dragon from USA Today 1476 01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 1: told us, that's nineteen sixty catches would be a Kwon Bolden. 1477 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:08,639 Speaker 1: You've had some other guys that have had great rookie 1478 01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:13,559 Speaker 1: receiving years, like Jaylen Waddle who broke the record of 1479 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:16,960 Speaker 1: a Kwon bot So I think that's why his name 1480 01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:19,400 Speaker 1: is being thrown up there. And with three games left, 1481 01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:22,679 Speaker 1: I mean, the man could put up some really serious 1482 01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:27,759 Speaker 1: receiving numbers for a rookie. And let's say Stroud misses 1483 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,160 Speaker 1: again next week, if they lose and they say it's 1484 01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:31,720 Speaker 1: say they go eight seven, they lose them on they 1485 01:11:31,760 --> 01:11:33,760 Speaker 1: go eighty seven. Okay, you still got to shot the playoffs. 1486 01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:36,080 Speaker 1: But do you want to put your rookie franchise guy 1487 01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:38,280 Speaker 1: out there that's had a great year out on the 1488 01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:41,040 Speaker 1: field a risk injury or where they pull a tua 1489 01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 1: from last year and say, okay, oh he's still in protocol. 1490 01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:47,880 Speaker 1: But there's a wink wink. Yeah, we're just we've had 1491 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 1: a great year. We're gonna shut this down. We're not 1492 01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:53,760 Speaker 1: risking our franchise quarterback for the future. We'll see he's 1493 01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:56,080 Speaker 1: not that way. He's down this week, he's playing. I 1494 01:11:56,120 --> 01:11:58,840 Speaker 1: think the same thing. I think the exact same thing 1495 01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:01,519 Speaker 1: because if I'm paying the tap. If I'm paying the 1496 01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:03,760 Speaker 1: check and I'm the man in charge, I might have 1497 01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:06,479 Speaker 1: called down to the coach's office and say, look, we've 1498 01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 1: had a great YI, get it. We're sitting at eight 1499 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:13,240 Speaker 1: and six. I understand. But area we're sitting, we're sitting CJ. 1500 01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:15,599 Speaker 1: We're sending them this week, and that's just the order. 1501 01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:18,439 Speaker 1: That's the order I'm giving you. This is what this 1502 01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:21,560 Speaker 1: is what it is. We're sitting seat. We're not mortgaging 1503 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:26,000 Speaker 1: and risking our future. This kid's got it, we know it. Hey, 1504 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:28,920 Speaker 1: plugging the backup. You won with a backup, so plug 1505 01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 1: him in and let's see what happens. They went on 1506 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:33,200 Speaker 1: the road and won a game that they tried to 1507 01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:35,800 Speaker 1: give away in Tennessee last week, but they came out 1508 01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:37,559 Speaker 1: with the dub and they should have won it off 1509 01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:40,639 Speaker 1: Singletary's walk off run, but they had a penalty which 1510 01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:43,559 Speaker 1: called it back. So you won with a backup. So 1511 01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:46,519 Speaker 1: let's go at it again. Let's see what happens this week. 1512 01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:49,960 Speaker 1: If we win this week, then okay, then we go 1513 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,840 Speaker 1: nine to six. Now we talk about maybe CJ next week, 1514 01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:55,720 Speaker 1: But if they go eight and seven, CJ show for 1515 01:12:55,760 --> 01:12:58,760 Speaker 1: the year. He's in proto callers what they'll do, and 1516 01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:01,559 Speaker 1: it's a smart business move and I think that would 1517 01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:04,280 Speaker 1: definitely take the Rookie of the Year award from him. 1518 01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:08,320 Speaker 1: But with Pookaakuls what he's doing, man, this is dude. 1519 01:13:08,360 --> 01:13:10,439 Speaker 1: Like I said, this is Jalen Wadoll type stuff. This 1520 01:13:10,479 --> 01:13:13,080 Speaker 1: is an Kwan Bowden. You guys remember an Kwon Bolden 1521 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:15,320 Speaker 1: came out of Florida State. He was recruited at Florida 1522 01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:18,240 Speaker 1: State to play quarterback and the quarterback got the receivers 1523 01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:19,880 Speaker 1: all got hurt and got knocked down, so they had 1524 01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:21,880 Speaker 1: to just say, okay, we need a receiver, hey, and 1525 01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:24,040 Speaker 1: Kwan you want to play some receiver. He ended up 1526 01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:26,759 Speaker 1: being a Pro Bowl NFL receiver and an All acc 1527 01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:30,439 Speaker 1: receiver in All American at Florida State. So we've seen 1528 01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 1: great rookie receivers have these type of years. If he 1529 01:13:34,479 --> 01:13:36,600 Speaker 1: keeps doing what he's doing. Dude, the catches he was 1530 01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:39,479 Speaker 1: making the other night, he's he's the best player out 1531 01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:41,000 Speaker 1: on that field. The other day I'm watching the game 1532 01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:43,920 Speaker 1: and I'm like, Okay, this kid's the best player out here, 1533 01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:47,120 Speaker 1: Like this kid is this kid's everything. So that's why 1534 01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:51,479 Speaker 1: I think he's kind of slid ahead. Missing games does matter, Yeah, 1535 01:13:51,520 --> 01:13:52,120 Speaker 1: but it's just. 1536 01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:54,160 Speaker 2: I mean, we saw this with Cooper Cup the year 1537 01:13:54,160 --> 01:13:56,120 Speaker 2: that he was running through the NFL. 1538 01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:58,439 Speaker 1: Like Matthew Stafford was really good. Guys. 1539 01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:01,840 Speaker 2: I think that's the take away that should be the takeaway, Like, 1540 01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:03,800 Speaker 2: do you think that put it like this? If he's 1541 01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:06,320 Speaker 2: on the Chargers, even with Justin Herbert, do you think 1542 01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:07,679 Speaker 2: he's having the same type of year. 1543 01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:12,280 Speaker 1: Absolutely not, I mean absolutely not. That's what I'm saying. 1544 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:16,040 Speaker 1: And kudos real quick man to Sean McVay. This Rams 1545 01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:19,280 Speaker 1: team shouldn't even be competitive. They would. They don't have 1546 01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:23,960 Speaker 1: first round draft guys, big time all Americans from college 1547 01:14:24,040 --> 01:14:26,920 Speaker 1: recently that have hit the league. They've had to they 1548 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 1: sold ship. They pushed all the chips in. They sold 1549 01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:32,880 Speaker 1: the ship away, right, pushed all their chips in. Once 1550 01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:34,880 Speaker 1: got to a super Bowl, didn't win it. They did 1551 01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:37,320 Speaker 1: it again, got to super Bowl, won it. Then they 1552 01:14:37,320 --> 01:14:39,400 Speaker 1: fall to what four and twelveth the following year, and 1553 01:14:39,520 --> 01:14:42,959 Speaker 1: right now they're sitting in a wild card playoff spot. 1554 01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:46,679 Speaker 1: Kudos to Sean McVay and the coaching staff and what 1555 01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:50,519 Speaker 1: he's been able to do with what he has Cooper 1556 01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:52,640 Speaker 1: Cup's been off this year. He was hurt, he was 1557 01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:54,679 Speaker 1: on IR the first four weeks. He didn't even play. 1558 01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:57,040 Speaker 1: So I love what they got going. Man, they got 1559 01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:00,599 Speaker 1: they got a shot. Caulse, You imagine them Wild Car 1560 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:05,639 Speaker 1: Weekend at Detroit.

I 1596 01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:02,719 Speaker 2: told brand that I think this might be a trap game. 1597 01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:06,160 Speaker 2: As the Bills have a four point lead fourteen to 1598 01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:07,800 Speaker 2: ten eight minutes left in the third quarter of v JA, 1599 01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:08,680 Speaker 2: who's your first doll? 1600 01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:10,640 Speaker 1: My first one, man is I'm gonna go to that 1601 01:17:10,840 --> 01:17:13,280 Speaker 1: really good lines in Vikings game. I'm gonna have my 1602 01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:17,080 Speaker 1: eyes on tomorrow in Minneapolis the Vikings. As of this 1603 01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:19,960 Speaker 1: morning on DraftKings, they are a three point underdog. They're 1604 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:21,960 Speaker 1: over unders forty seven and a half. Vegas think there's 1605 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:25,000 Speaker 1: gonna be some points there. Hey, they're four zero one 1606 01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:29,720 Speaker 1: against the spread in their last five games as the underdog. Tomorrow, 1607 01:17:29,760 --> 01:17:32,080 Speaker 1: they're the underdog. They ain't lost in the last five 1608 01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:34,760 Speaker 1: times they were the underdog gets the spread. I'm taking 1609 01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:36,680 Speaker 1: them to clear this and get this win tomorrow and 1610 01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:39,960 Speaker 1: make this race and NFC North just a little more 1611 01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:43,519 Speaker 1: interesting coming down to stretch because they played the lines twice. 1612 01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 1: This is what I'm calling my shot. I've been I 1613 01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:48,240 Speaker 1: feel like I've had a good eye on the Eagles 1614 01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:49,120 Speaker 1: the last five years. 1615 01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:52,680 Speaker 2: Of last five weeks, I think Tommy DeVito can go 1616 01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:56,679 Speaker 2: ahead and make a Christmas miracle. Oh, Tommy DeVito makes 1617 01:17:56,720 --> 01:18:00,479 Speaker 2: a Christmas miracle on one of the worst seconds in 1618 01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:04,200 Speaker 2: the NFL to Philadelphia Eagles Darian slay down of Vonte 1619 01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:08,400 Speaker 2: Maddocks down linebacker Zach Cunningham hurt you know what I mean. 1620 01:18:08,439 --> 01:18:13,160 Speaker 1: I just look thirteen point favorites. I don't know. I 1621 01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:15,800 Speaker 1: don't see that, Like, I just don't see that. I 1622 01:18:15,840 --> 01:18:18,200 Speaker 1: think the Eagles are in a tailspin. They can't wait 1623 01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:21,320 Speaker 1: with that, dam Bessandro. I told you that game might 1624 01:18:21,360 --> 01:18:23,320 Speaker 1: not be the snoozer that you mentioned. It could be. 1625 01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:25,639 Speaker 1: That's a division game. I've seen a lot of NFC's 1626 01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 1: football in my life. My next one is I'm gonna 1627 01:18:27,840 --> 01:18:31,200 Speaker 1: go to the Tennessee Titans, who should have won at 1628 01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:33,960 Speaker 1: home last week, and they got the Seattle Seahawks coming in, 1629 01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:36,519 Speaker 1: and let's just get real and be honest. They got 1630 01:18:36,520 --> 01:18:39,040 Speaker 1: all played by the Eagles. They had a ninety two 1631 01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:42,400 Speaker 1: yard drive to win the game twenty to seventeen. The 1632 01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:44,880 Speaker 1: Eagles really did outplayed on most of that game. But 1633 01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:46,639 Speaker 1: I like this for the Tights. They get their defense 1634 01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:48,400 Speaker 1: at home. They're plus three and a half at home. 1635 01:18:48,640 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 1: They are four and one in their last five against 1636 01:18:51,360 --> 01:18:56,320 Speaker 1: the spread against the Seahawks at home. Rabels name is 1637 01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:58,840 Speaker 1: being mentioned for the successor in New England. I think 1638 01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:01,519 Speaker 1: the man can really coach football. Derrick Henry, Derek Henry, 1639 01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:04,680 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, and I think the Titans beat the Seahawks 1640 01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:08,000 Speaker 1: tomorrow at home. Give me them for my second dog. 1641 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:11,760 Speaker 1: Change your mind, knowing that Ryan Tannehill likely to be 1642 01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 1: the quarterback. No, Derrick Henry Derrek Henry Derreck Henry got you. Well, 1643 01:19:17,200 --> 01:19:19,880 Speaker 1: I'm going and I hate Tannehill. You know that there 1644 01:19:20,080 --> 01:19:23,560 Speaker 1: is one man who has only lost one game of 1645 01:19:23,600 --> 01:19:26,760 Speaker 1: his career against the NFC, and I think that stays true. 1646 01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:30,200 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens go in to San 1647 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:33,800 Speaker 1: Francisco mar Santa Clara where the stadium actually is now 1648 01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:36,759 Speaker 1: Levi Stadium, and they got a new pair of jeans. 1649 01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:40,360 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson gonna walk into San Francisco, kick his feet up. 1650 01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:42,640 Speaker 2: Sit on the couch and have a snack. I like 1651 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:45,320 Speaker 2: those Ravens to go ahead. Look six point dogs, give 1652 01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:47,040 Speaker 2: me give me them on the money line. Give me 1653 01:19:47,080 --> 01:19:48,040 Speaker 2: the Baltimore. 1654 01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:49,920 Speaker 1: Ravens to go ahead and beat the San Francisco forty 1655 01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:51,320 Speaker 1: nine ers. I like that one. I'm gonna give you 1656 01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:53,200 Speaker 1: another one. Man. These two teams have two quarterbacks that 1657 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:56,120 Speaker 1: people will have a lot of ifs about, and that's 1658 01:19:56,160 --> 01:20:00,240 Speaker 1: the Cardinals and Kyler Murray and the Chicago Bears and 1659 01:19:59,840 --> 01:20:03,240 Speaker 1: one mister Justin Fields. Now the Bears are four point 1660 01:20:03,240 --> 01:20:05,720 Speaker 1: favorite at home. They look good at times this year. 1661 01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:08,120 Speaker 1: But I tell you something, since Kylin Murray has come back, 1662 01:20:08,160 --> 01:20:10,280 Speaker 1: people need to stop hating and shut up. They're eight 1663 01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:12,000 Speaker 1: points more on points per game. They were over one 1664 01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:13,840 Speaker 1: hundred more yards per game. There were like two seventy 1665 01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:16,040 Speaker 1: six or something after like three sixty two. When he's 1666 01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:18,360 Speaker 1: out there on the field, he makes all the difference. 1667 01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:20,280 Speaker 1: I know they're three and eighteen the last twenty one 1668 01:20:20,320 --> 01:20:23,080 Speaker 1: as a dog, but they're five and one against Chicago 1669 01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:26,720 Speaker 1: against the Sprint. Kyler Murray goes in to shoulder field. 1670 01:20:26,720 --> 01:20:29,599 Speaker 1: Get the dumb the ball coming up next? The playoff 1671 01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:32,120 Speaker 1: picture is settling. Which WILDCAF team are you the most 1672 01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:34,040 Speaker 1: scared of?

Congratulations to him. 1686 01:21:11,520 --> 01:21:14,439 Speaker 1: A little modified push push you know if he is, 1687 01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:17,799 Speaker 1: I could do another sports grievance. We've been running NFL 1688 01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:21,439 Speaker 1: quarterback sneaks for hundreds and hundreds of years. Nobody ever 1689 01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:24,639 Speaker 1: needed this assistance from the back. What is this rugby? Yeah, 1690 01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:27,200 Speaker 1: now I tell you this. I don't like like you say, 1691 01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:29,960 Speaker 1: how he's literally grabbing a player and pushing him. That 1692 01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:33,000 Speaker 1: part of it I think needs to be outlawed. If 1693 01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:35,320 Speaker 1: you lean on a guy or you use like for 1694 01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:38,320 Speaker 1: your forearm or your shoulder, cool, But watch he's literally 1695 01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:42,200 Speaker 1: holding his hips and pushing him forward. That's not football. 1696 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,879 Speaker 1: That that out stand against all day long. That's not football. 1697 01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:48,800 Speaker 1: That part of it they need to outlaw. Now, if 1698 01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:52,200 Speaker 1: he just puts his shoulder pad into quarterbacks butt right 1699 01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:55,120 Speaker 1: in the middle and drives, okay, like hitting a block 1700 01:21:55,160 --> 01:21:58,360 Speaker 1: and shit cool. But to grab a guy and then 1701 01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:03,040 Speaker 1: maneuver him like a Jim camera and moving forward, that 1702 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:05,200 Speaker 1: they need to get rid of because the defense isn't 1703 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:07,400 Speaker 1: allowed to do it. If the defense is allowed to 1704 01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:10,840 Speaker 1: push them, fine, but they're not, so they can't push 1705 01:22:10,920 --> 01:22:13,120 Speaker 1: another player. They just all have to get there. That's 1706 01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:15,160 Speaker 1: why the Philly one works so well. You got one 1707 01:22:15,160 --> 01:22:17,479 Speaker 1: of the best offensive line in football and they can 1708 01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:20,679 Speaker 1: actually push. The defense can't push back. In the NFL's 1709 01:22:20,720 --> 01:22:23,479 Speaker 1: reason is player safety, which is a bunch of ball 1710 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:26,640 Speaker 1: on that note right there, So I don't mind it, 1711 01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:30,880 Speaker 1: but you can't grab a guy and maneuver him and 1712 01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:33,400 Speaker 1: you know guid where he's going and pushing forward. That 1713 01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:37,479 Speaker 1: part of it. I think the Competition Committee should you know, 1714 01:22:37,520 --> 01:22:40,800 Speaker 1: they should visit that this offseason. Well, VJ, let's take 1715 01:22:40,840 --> 01:22:44,120 Speaker 1: a second here, roll our sleeves up, put on our 1716 01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:51,360 Speaker 1: ties and break down the NFL playoff from the NFL playoffs. 1717 01:22:51,360 --> 01:22:54,360 Speaker 1: Steve Kornaki can go. He's not the only one that 1718 01:22:54,400 --> 01:22:56,679 Speaker 1: can do it, but no, VJ. 1719 01:22:57,120 --> 01:22:59,200 Speaker 2: We have several teams and out of the playoffs is 1720 01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:02,799 Speaker 2: kind of SOLIDI fu itself. You know, the playoff picture 1721 01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:07,720 Speaker 2: is coming into form, and uh, I'm curious who you 1722 01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:13,080 Speaker 2: think is the most dangerous wild card team alive? 1723 01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:15,160 Speaker 1: I have an answer, and I wonder if we're gonna 1724 01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:20,000 Speaker 1: end up on the same one. The most dangerous wildcard 1725 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:23,160 Speaker 1: team I probably wouldn't want to play would be the 1726 01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:27,559 Speaker 1: Indianapolis coach. We have different ones, and that's because they 1727 01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:31,120 Speaker 1: have a veteran style quarterback. They could run the football, 1728 01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:36,120 Speaker 1: They they they they played great defense, and they might 1729 01:23:36,200 --> 01:23:39,240 Speaker 1: have the coach of the year. I have a one B. 1730 01:23:39,439 --> 01:23:41,040 Speaker 1: That's the first team when I look at the list, 1731 01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:44,880 Speaker 1: that's the first team that strikes me. Another one I 1732 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:46,680 Speaker 1: want no part of is I want no part of 1733 01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:50,439 Speaker 1: the Rams. I want right now, I want zero part 1734 01:23:50,479 --> 01:23:54,200 Speaker 1: of the Rams and that passing attack and Williams running 1735 01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:58,320 Speaker 1: the football and Stafford's done this. There's nothing the defense 1736 01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:01,920 Speaker 1: could show Stafford in the postseed that he hasn't seen before. 1737 01:24:02,400 --> 01:24:06,519 Speaker 1: Cooper cut Pooka the coup. If they get if they 1738 01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 1: get to to at well back the running game, then 1739 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:11,200 Speaker 1: the defense, and you still got Big nine to nine. 1740 01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:14,320 Speaker 1: You still got to block Big nine to nine. Those 1741 01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:16,000 Speaker 1: are two teams right there, man, If I can get 1742 01:24:16,000 --> 01:24:17,800 Speaker 1: one from the AFC to NFC, I don't want to 1743 01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:21,680 Speaker 1: see the Coats, especially in indoors are like a good 1744 01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:24,360 Speaker 1: weather stadium, and I don't think I want any part 1745 01:24:24,360 --> 01:24:27,720 Speaker 1: of the Rams. Especially if I'm the Detroit Lions, I 1746 01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:29,320 Speaker 1: want zero part of the Rams. 1747 01:24:29,840 --> 01:24:34,599 Speaker 2: If Matthew Stafford goes into Detroit and wins a playoff game, 1748 01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:38,920 Speaker 2: the city is going to collapse. 1749 01:24:39,080 --> 01:24:39,600 Speaker 1: Man. 1750 01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:44,320 Speaker 2: I mean there was already such such divisiveness when he 1751 01:24:44,360 --> 01:24:47,120 Speaker 2: went to Los Angeles in the first place, right because 1752 01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:49,520 Speaker 2: it was a real thing. It's like, you know, the 1753 01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:51,240 Speaker 2: people will call it like the Saint Louis. I mean, 1754 01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:54,000 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, the Los Angeles Lions, right, yeah, because people 1755 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:55,320 Speaker 2: were Stafford fans for so long. 1756 01:24:55,360 --> 01:24:57,200 Speaker 1: He was never for ten years, Oh would you not 1757 01:24:57,240 --> 01:24:59,680 Speaker 1: be number one overall pick? He never really could get 1758 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:02,439 Speaker 1: the j I'm done in Detroit. Not all of it 1759 01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 1: was his fault, but some of it. You know, he 1760 01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:06,880 Speaker 1: did like reliable, he was healthy, He's always there, the 1761 01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:10,840 Speaker 1: toughest nails, toughest nails, separated shoulder, no problem. I'll just 1762 01:25:10,880 --> 01:25:13,240 Speaker 1: throw it with my left hand. I'm just throw on 1763 01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:13,880 Speaker 1: my left hand. 1764 01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:17,000 Speaker 2: And so now and so now if the Lions, who 1765 01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:21,240 Speaker 2: are in the midst of their best season and in 1766 01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:24,599 Speaker 2: super Bowl history, man, and since the Super Bowl has happened, 1767 01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:26,639 Speaker 2: this is the best season in the Lion's history so far. 1768 01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:30,439 Speaker 1: Ten and four, two days before Christmas. If Stafford goes 1769 01:25:30,439 --> 01:25:35,720 Speaker 1: in there and wins man the storylines, oh gosh, all 1770 01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:38,080 Speaker 1: former number one pick for the Rams, Hey, you're not 1771 01:25:38,120 --> 01:25:41,360 Speaker 1: good enough. Here, get Maddie. Maddie comes back. I'm gonna 1772 01:25:41,360 --> 01:25:43,240 Speaker 1: tell you this, and I'll be honest with you. I'd 1773 01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:44,960 Speaker 1: be all in on the Rams because I would just 1774 01:25:45,040 --> 01:25:46,960 Speaker 1: love to see that story because I think he's been 1775 01:25:47,200 --> 01:25:50,040 Speaker 1: unfairly treated. Now, if they were go up there, if 1776 01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:51,320 Speaker 1: they were to go up there and the Lions were 1777 01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:54,479 Speaker 1: to win, you just have more of the Sea all 1778 01:25:54,479 --> 01:25:56,479 Speaker 1: along it with Stafford or he's not a Hall of Famer. 1779 01:25:56,520 --> 01:25:58,680 Speaker 1: A lot of that talk will continue. But you know, 1780 01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:01,040 Speaker 1: as we had with Tyler Dragon, we talked about narratives. 1781 01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:02,880 Speaker 1: If you want a narrative to end, you have to 1782 01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:04,920 Speaker 1: end the narrative. It's not gonna end on its own. 1783 01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 1: People minds are made up about certain teams, certain franchises, 1784 01:26:08,120 --> 01:26:11,080 Speaker 1: certain players. That's fine. Like and if you're a Jordan guy, 1785 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:13,040 Speaker 1: you're a Jordan guy, you're never gonna say Lebron was 1786 01:26:13,080 --> 01:26:15,240 Speaker 1: better or Kobe. If you're a Kobe guy, you're never 1787 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:17,880 Speaker 1: gonna say leb like it should. People minds are just 1788 01:26:18,040 --> 01:26:21,759 Speaker 1: made up. But if he goes in there and wins 1789 01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:24,160 Speaker 1: a playoff game, and that would be a shootout in 1790 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:27,280 Speaker 1: my opinion, because I think both secondaries struggle a little bit. 1791 01:26:27,560 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 1: You got two dynamic offenses. I think that could be 1792 01:26:30,320 --> 01:26:33,840 Speaker 1: thirty one thirty four. Whoever has the ball last type thing, 1793 01:26:33,960 --> 01:26:36,559 Speaker 1: or whoever turns the ball over is probably gonna caugh 1794 01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:40,240 Speaker 1: away the game. Marn. But man, I would I tell you, boy, 1795 01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:43,759 Speaker 1: I love how I would love to see that one 1796 01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:45,280 Speaker 1: just as bad as I would love to see like 1797 01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:47,360 Speaker 1: Phillyan Dallas in the playoff game. When you get some 1798 01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:52,480 Speaker 1: of these storylines and especially rivalry games division games going, man, 1799 01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:57,639 Speaker 1: it can make for some very interesting, very interesting playoff games. 1800 01:26:57,680 --> 01:26:59,960 Speaker 2: I mean, because the Rams started out and it looked 1801 01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:03,479 Speaker 2: like it was on the verge of disasters. Tank right, yeah, 1802 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:05,479 Speaker 2: exactly like a tank looked like I mean, I thought 1803 01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:06,719 Speaker 2: there were going to be one of the worst teams 1804 01:27:06,720 --> 01:27:07,200 Speaker 2: in football. 1805 01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:09,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, people thought they were tanking. I had him at 1806 01:27:09,800 --> 01:27:12,840 Speaker 1: I think six and six and eleven. I think I 1807 01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:13,519 Speaker 1: might have had him. 1808 01:27:13,400 --> 01:27:15,720 Speaker 2: At According to the New York Times playoff predictor of 1809 01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:19,000 Speaker 2: the Rams, I was seventy two chance of making the playoffs. Obviously, 1810 01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:21,559 Speaker 2: San Francisco has already clinched the division, but at eight 1811 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:23,679 Speaker 2: and seven right now, they're playing some of the best 1812 01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:27,120 Speaker 2: ball that we, I mean in the league. Los Angeles 1813 01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:30,600 Speaker 2: Rams are and Matthew Stafford again is setting up Phokinakul 1814 01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:33,439 Speaker 2: to try to steal Rookie of the Year. Not gonna happen, 1815 01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:35,840 Speaker 2: but still he's I mean, he's putting guys in the 1816 01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:36,839 Speaker 2: position to succeed. 1817 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:38,839 Speaker 1: He's playing some of the best ball of his career 1818 01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:39,320 Speaker 1: right now. 1819 01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:41,439 Speaker 2: I mean, and after that back, I thought he was 1820 01:27:41,439 --> 01:27:43,439 Speaker 2: going to be done for, Like I really did think 1821 01:27:43,439 --> 01:27:46,639 Speaker 2: he was going to be cooked. But the Rams, I'm 1822 01:27:46,640 --> 01:27:48,439 Speaker 2: telling you, nobody wants to see this team. And I 1823 01:27:48,520 --> 01:27:51,280 Speaker 2: know everybody's talking saying the same thing about Buffalo. I 1824 01:27:51,640 --> 01:27:54,639 Speaker 2: think it's the Rams that nobody, nobody wants to see 1825 01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:58,960 Speaker 2: this team, especially when you consider that there's not a 1826 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:02,080 Speaker 2: quarterback in the end not named Dad Prescott playing better 1827 01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:03,240 Speaker 2: than Matthew Stafford. 1828 01:28:03,320 --> 01:28:06,240 Speaker 1: Right now, Buffalo's gonna turn it over. Josh App will 1829 01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:08,960 Speaker 1: turn over Allen's gonna throw the playoff game away if 1830 01:28:08,960 --> 01:28:10,640 Speaker 1: they even get to the playoffs. They're not even in 1831 01:28:10,680 --> 01:28:12,920 Speaker 1: the playoffs right now, so they still got to even 1832 01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 1: get there. If the playoffs starts today, the Bills would 1833 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:18,800 Speaker 1: be up up in Washingn, New York eating Wings right now. 1834 01:28:18,960 --> 01:28:20,960 Speaker 1: But the Rams I had at seven and ten was 1835 01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:24,280 Speaker 1: my prediction. Their finish is just tough. That's what kind 1836 01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:26,880 Speaker 1: of makes it hard for them to get in. At 1837 01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:30,840 Speaker 1: Baltimore Washington Saints Giants forty nine ers in this last 1838 01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:33,719 Speaker 1: second half of their season. I think it's just gonna 1839 01:28:33,720 --> 01:28:36,960 Speaker 1: be their tell tale how they finish out. But like 1840 01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:38,680 Speaker 1: I said, I love the offense. I love the way 1841 01:28:38,720 --> 01:28:41,639 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford has look he's playing some of his best ball. 1842 01:28:42,200 --> 01:28:45,080 Speaker 1: He got a guy that's probably gonna steal or should 1843 01:28:45,160 --> 01:28:48,639 Speaker 1: get Rookie of the Year. No Williams, the running back 1844 01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:51,000 Speaker 1: from Norre Dame. If you got college football fans out there, 1845 01:28:51,040 --> 01:28:53,519 Speaker 1: if you guys, remember this kid could run the football. 1846 01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:56,280 Speaker 1: It's just something everybody doesn't get drafted to the right, 1847 01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:58,799 Speaker 1: you know, situation guys, or get a shot right away. 1848 01:28:58,840 --> 01:29:02,519 Speaker 1: It takes some in pro sports to just get going 1849 01:29:02,640 --> 01:29:05,439 Speaker 1: and catch on. Everybody's not the number one pick, our 1850 01:29:05,479 --> 01:29:07,800 Speaker 1: first round or superstar. And I think the Rams have 1851 01:29:07,880 --> 01:29:10,479 Speaker 1: done a great job. As I mentioned early in the show, 1852 01:29:10,560 --> 01:29:13,840 Speaker 1: Mick Veigh salute to you, sir, Listen, I thought you 1853 01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:16,240 Speaker 1: should have walked away because you mentioned it. I'm sorry. 1854 01:29:16,400 --> 01:29:19,200 Speaker 1: I was just playing the card that always played. Once 1855 01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 1: you start talking retirement, it's like divorce. Married people know this. 1856 01:29:24,360 --> 01:29:27,320 Speaker 1: The minute you mentioned it, you're already heading there. You 1857 01:29:27,400 --> 01:29:29,680 Speaker 1: might be able to save it, but the fact you 1858 01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:32,599 Speaker 1: mentioned it. I feel the same way about retirement him 1859 01:29:32,640 --> 01:29:35,519 Speaker 1: and Aaron Donald. But hey, they shut me up, man, 1860 01:29:35,640 --> 01:29:38,120 Speaker 1: right now. And I like them to sneak in in 1861 01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:40,599 Speaker 1: the playoffs and you don't. You don't want a piece 1862 01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:43,679 Speaker 1: of this team, man. They could be real dangerous and 1863 01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:46,600 Speaker 1: Matt would go back to playing in his old stadium. 1864 01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:49,639 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that that would just that game would 1865 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:55,040 Speaker 1: draw what fifteen million? Oh I mean easily? Yeah, easily 1866 01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:58,960 Speaker 1: fifteen million. Fifteen to sixteen million, easily for a wild 1867 01:29:59,000 --> 01:29:59,639 Speaker 1: card game. 1868 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:03,719 Speaker 2: But Kyron Williams is a perfect example of what happens. 1869 01:30:03,960 --> 01:30:05,360 Speaker 1: I feel like it happened to G. J. 1870 01:30:05,479 --> 01:30:08,280 Speaker 2: Straw over the we saw and he ended up being 1871 01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:10,599 Speaker 2: the second overall pick, so it didn't happen too much. 1872 01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:13,680 Speaker 1: But somehow guys'. 1873 01:30:13,400 --> 01:30:18,040 Speaker 2: Grades changed so dramatically after the last football game they 1874 01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:20,519 Speaker 2: play in college to the time in which they get 1875 01:30:20,520 --> 01:30:23,000 Speaker 2: in the draft, Kyra Roumis went a four to six ' 1876 01:30:23,040 --> 01:30:27,479 Speaker 2: five forty and he ended up being what a fourth round, 1877 01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:31,519 Speaker 2: fourth or fifth That's why he fell. That's why if 1878 01:30:31,520 --> 01:30:33,320 Speaker 2: you just watched some of the game the tape on, 1879 01:30:33,600 --> 01:30:36,120 Speaker 2: if you watch over the game, especially all twenty too 1880 01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:38,080 Speaker 2: is like it is. Kyron Williams. Fast is the first 1881 01:30:38,080 --> 01:30:39,880 Speaker 2: thing that pops up on Google when you search it. 1882 01:30:39,880 --> 01:30:42,040 Speaker 2: You know what, He's fast enough, Okay, because he's running 1883 01:30:42,080 --> 01:30:43,240 Speaker 2: pass people in the NFL. 1884 01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:45,720 Speaker 1: That's fast enough for me. Just put the Nordre Dame 1885 01:30:45,760 --> 01:30:48,400 Speaker 1: tape on, and then Nordre Dame's playing top notch competition. 1886 01:30:48,479 --> 01:30:50,720 Speaker 1: They're not playing a lot of cupcakes. One thing about 1887 01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:52,920 Speaker 1: Nordre Dame. I always do give them credit for I 1888 01:30:52,920 --> 01:30:54,800 Speaker 1: don't give them a lot of credit for not being 1889 01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:56,879 Speaker 1: in the conference. But because they're not in the conference, 1890 01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:59,400 Speaker 1: they don't have a lot of cupcake kind of schedule 1891 01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:01,920 Speaker 1: because they're going to play Army. I mean, I'm not over. 1892 01:31:02,000 --> 01:31:04,439 Speaker 1: They do play air Force, they play Navy, Michigan State, 1893 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:09,040 Speaker 1: Purdue USC. They they played you know, some some stiff competition, 1894 01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:11,720 Speaker 1: especially the type of year, whether Michigan State's on or 1895 01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:14,960 Speaker 1: USC's on in order or excuse me, or even Air Force, 1896 01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 1: the military schools, Air Force and Navy. Navy's gone in 1897 01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:19,680 Speaker 1: to South Bend and beat them. So we've seen that 1898 01:31:19,800 --> 01:31:22,720 Speaker 1: happen before. But just put the tape on this kid, 1899 01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:24,680 Speaker 1: get just flat out playing. Then the defensive side of 1900 01:31:24,720 --> 01:31:27,400 Speaker 1: the ball. Now they struggle in the secondary. Martin. That's 1901 01:31:27,400 --> 01:31:31,120 Speaker 1: the only thing that would frighten me going against Detroit, 1902 01:31:31,160 --> 01:31:33,599 Speaker 1: because if you let go, if you protect golf number 1903 01:31:33,640 --> 01:31:36,760 Speaker 1: one and you let him just read and pick and 1904 01:31:36,800 --> 01:31:39,720 Speaker 1: find his guy, he'll pick you apart. And Detroit's got 1905 01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:43,880 Speaker 1: some dudes on the outside, Saint Brown, and then James 1906 01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:46,559 Speaker 1: is starting to really Williams is starting to He's starting 1907 01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:48,800 Speaker 1: to get it and the gamble stuff is passed now. 1908 01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:52,000 Speaker 1: I think he's starting to feel himself as an NFL receiver. 1909 01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:57,160 Speaker 2: Right now, we've got the Chargers and the Bills easton 1910 01:31:57,320 --> 01:32:01,040 Speaker 2: stick just do an incomplete pass. Bills with a twenty 1911 01:32:01,160 --> 01:32:04,360 Speaker 2: one to thirteen lead, fourteen to seventeen left in the 1912 01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:08,200 Speaker 2: fourth quarter, the Chargers have the ball trying to drive. 1913 01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:08,679 Speaker 1: Down the field. 1914 01:32:08,760 --> 01:32:11,920 Speaker 2: We'll see how this one ends up. But coming up next, 1915 01:32:11,920 --> 01:32:14,160 Speaker 2: we'll take a look at the college football preview. It's 1916 01:32:14,240 --> 01:32:17,240 Speaker 2: right around the corner, guys, it's right around the corner. 1917 01:32:17,280 --> 01:32:21,080 Speaker 2: College football playoff and also have another live look into 1918 01:32:21,120 --> 01:32:23,519 Speaker 2: this game kind of break down what we see as 1919 01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:26,200 Speaker 2: we watch the Chargers and the Bills Easton stick with 1920 01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:30,040 Speaker 2: a completion to. 1921 01:32:28,520 --> 01:32:32,120 Speaker 1: Somebody Josh Palmer.

This time next week, 1958 01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:20,679 Speaker 2: some of that hash will be settled. In the words 1959 01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:22,920 Speaker 2: of my good friend Dave Danischek, we will figure out 1960 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:26,960 Speaker 2: who is going to be in the in the championship game. 1961 01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:29,519 Speaker 1: As a summis will be going on this time next week. VJ. 1962 01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:32,960 Speaker 1: What do you expect to see in the college football playoffs? Oh? Man, 1963 01:34:33,040 --> 01:34:36,920 Speaker 1: I'm super excited for this, for both games that'll go 1964 01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:40,760 Speaker 1: down next Monday, New Year's Day. I have to tell 1965 01:34:40,760 --> 01:34:42,839 Speaker 1: you all what I expect from Michigan. I expect Michigan 1966 01:34:42,840 --> 01:34:45,760 Speaker 1: to run the football. I expect the nation's number one 1967 01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:51,439 Speaker 1: leading defense that gave up nine point five yards excuse 1968 01:34:51,439 --> 01:34:56,200 Speaker 1: me points per game this year under ten to Spy Milrow. 1969 01:34:56,600 --> 01:34:59,360 Speaker 1: I expect Michigan to run the football because Alabama can 1970 01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:02,839 Speaker 1: be run on. Auburn ran on them, Texas ran on them. 1971 01:35:03,160 --> 01:35:06,120 Speaker 1: One of those lower nobody's schools were able to run 1972 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:08,439 Speaker 1: the ball. Forget what game it was, but I expect 1973 01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:12,760 Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy to make enough plays in the passing game 1974 01:35:13,080 --> 01:35:16,559 Speaker 1: for Michigan to win the game and to cover as 1975 01:35:16,560 --> 01:35:21,120 Speaker 1: far as the Texas Washington game goes. I think Texas 1976 01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:24,200 Speaker 1: is getting a lot of love, and I just think Washington. 1977 01:35:24,280 --> 01:35:26,360 Speaker 1: One of these games is gonna be a blowout, because 1978 01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:29,120 Speaker 1: we get that every single year. And I just think 1979 01:35:29,160 --> 01:35:33,040 Speaker 1: this Washington team that went thirteen to zero and I 1980 01:35:33,080 --> 01:35:36,439 Speaker 1: thought their quarterback got robbed of the Heisman, and everybody's 1981 01:35:36,439 --> 01:35:40,519 Speaker 1: still questioning them. And this Texas team, their secondary. Their 1982 01:35:40,520 --> 01:35:44,000 Speaker 1: front seven is legit, but they have secondary issues. They 1983 01:35:44,040 --> 01:35:47,320 Speaker 1: got some younger guys back there, got a little non turmoil. 1984 01:35:47,400 --> 01:35:50,400 Speaker 1: But when one guy transfers and already has chosen Duke, 1985 01:35:50,439 --> 01:35:53,400 Speaker 1: your backup quarterback Murphy and has already chosen Duke as 1986 01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:55,920 Speaker 1: his next suitor, we're he to take his talents to 1987 01:35:56,920 --> 01:36:00,640 Speaker 1: dorm Raleigh. Hey man, I think Washington gonna put it 1988 01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:04,320 Speaker 1: on Texas. I really do. I think Washington's got the 1989 01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:07,160 Speaker 1: high powered offense, they can run the ball well, they 1990 01:36:07,200 --> 01:36:09,760 Speaker 1: got two NFL Sunday guys on the outside, and they 1991 01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:12,439 Speaker 1: got a Sunday first round draft pick at quarterback. I 1992 01:36:12,479 --> 01:36:14,559 Speaker 1: think that they really put some points up in this game. 1993 01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:16,559 Speaker 1: I like that game to be in the area of 1994 01:36:16,680 --> 01:36:20,040 Speaker 1: thirty eight to twenty thirty eight, twenty four something like that. 1995 01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,439 Speaker 1: I think they win by double Ditch's two scores, and 1996 01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:25,200 Speaker 1: I think Michigan wins a nall bider because they will 1997 01:36:25,240 --> 01:36:27,640 Speaker 1: just run the football. They'll pass when they have to. 1998 01:36:27,800 --> 01:36:29,920 Speaker 1: They're not gonna air it out. I don't think they're 1999 01:36:29,920 --> 01:36:32,200 Speaker 1: gonna put it in JJ's hands in that matter. They 2000 01:36:32,280 --> 01:36:34,680 Speaker 1: need them to make enough plays to the tight end, 2001 01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:37,880 Speaker 1: to Donovan Edwards that will play receiver, flankout receiver, the 2002 01:36:38,040 --> 01:36:40,559 Speaker 1: running back and pull off a win. And then we 2003 01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:45,439 Speaker 1: get Washington and Michigan old school rose ball pack twelve 2004 01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:48,040 Speaker 1: well pack ten fro when we grew up big ten 2005 01:36:48,120 --> 01:36:51,760 Speaker 1: tight matchup the following Monday night, January eighth for the 2006 01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:52,920 Speaker 1: National Championship. 2007 01:36:53,280 --> 01:36:55,880 Speaker 2: I think this Michigan Alabama game is going to come 2008 01:36:55,920 --> 01:36:58,280 Speaker 2: down to the trenches like so many football games do. 2009 01:36:58,479 --> 01:37:01,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, but ultimately, because here's the deal. 2010 01:37:03,400 --> 01:37:09,240 Speaker 2: Alabama blitzed Georgia exactly one time in that game. Nick Saban, 2011 01:37:09,360 --> 01:37:11,280 Speaker 2: he'll tell you he said it in one of his 2012 01:37:11,360 --> 01:37:13,639 Speaker 2: post game and in one of his postgame interviews. He's like, look, 2013 01:37:14,640 --> 01:37:16,760 Speaker 2: and I don't want to just you know, completely like 2014 01:37:16,800 --> 01:37:19,200 Speaker 2: football nerd it out, but he basically what he said 2015 01:37:19,360 --> 01:37:22,240 Speaker 2: was stop blitzing play cover two in the back end, 2016 01:37:22,840 --> 01:37:25,280 Speaker 2: which means take you both your safeties, leave the middlefield 2017 01:37:25,320 --> 01:37:29,320 Speaker 2: open and play cover two, play cover one, lock up 2018 01:37:30,120 --> 01:37:34,280 Speaker 2: man match, and just rush four. If we can't, like, 2019 01:37:34,439 --> 01:37:37,000 Speaker 2: if we don't win with four, then we'll do something different. 2020 01:37:37,040 --> 01:37:39,360 Speaker 2: But remember Georgia walked down the field the first drive 2021 01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:42,519 Speaker 2: and Nick Abel called his defensive court den over there. 2022 01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:45,080 Speaker 2: He's like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Noavin Steel, Who're 2023 01:37:45,080 --> 01:37:49,000 Speaker 2: not doing none of that again. They gotta beat us 2024 01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:53,519 Speaker 2: man versus man, Jimmy versus Joe. If Michigan can hold 2025 01:37:53,600 --> 01:37:56,280 Speaker 2: up against the front four, I like their chances. 2026 01:37:56,360 --> 01:37:58,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. If not, it's gonna be a long night. But 2027 01:37:58,960 --> 01:38:01,599 Speaker 1: the thing is, if you play two top safeties, then 2028 01:38:01,600 --> 01:38:04,400 Speaker 1: I'm handling the ball off. That's offense one on one. 2029 01:38:04,439 --> 01:38:07,120 Speaker 1: If I'm JJ McCarthy and I got two plays called 2030 01:38:07,120 --> 01:38:09,160 Speaker 1: in the huddle. When I come break the huddle and 2031 01:38:09,200 --> 01:38:12,840 Speaker 1: I look, I identify the mic and tell the center, tell 2032 01:38:12,840 --> 01:38:14,960 Speaker 1: the lineman five to fives the mic, four fours, the 2033 01:38:15,000 --> 01:38:17,160 Speaker 1: mic three six to mike, whoever the mic is. And 2034 01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:20,400 Speaker 1: I look up and I see two safeties. Blake left, 2035 01:38:20,840 --> 01:38:24,519 Speaker 1: Blake right. Okay, they have four linemen that were sent 2036 01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:28,560 Speaker 1: to all American teams. They still have the best offensive 2037 01:38:28,600 --> 01:38:31,880 Speaker 1: line in college football and censers out. And we know 2038 01:38:31,960 --> 01:38:35,040 Speaker 1: that he was a first team All American this year. 2039 01:38:35,200 --> 01:38:37,320 Speaker 1: They got two other guys that were second team All 2040 01:38:37,360 --> 01:38:40,519 Speaker 1: American and another first team or third team All American 2041 01:38:40,600 --> 01:38:43,360 Speaker 1: on the offensive line. If they want to play that game, 2042 01:38:43,720 --> 01:38:46,920 Speaker 1: If Bama wants to play, we'll put four and let 2043 01:38:46,960 --> 01:38:50,840 Speaker 1: our linebackers roam and play top two. Safety michig Kin 2044 01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:54,719 Speaker 1: will be glad to take eight and nine and ten 2045 01:38:54,760 --> 01:38:59,080 Speaker 1: and eleven play drives down the field. Tick tick tick 2046 01:38:59,120 --> 01:39:01,720 Speaker 1: tick tick tick tick tick tick tick and take time 2047 01:39:01,800 --> 01:39:05,200 Speaker 1: off the clock all day law. Because what that opens 2048 01:39:05,280 --> 01:39:07,880 Speaker 1: up is, oh no, we're not gonna hand it off. 2049 01:39:07,880 --> 01:39:09,840 Speaker 1: We're gonna stick it in the belly. We're gonna pull 2050 01:39:09,880 --> 01:39:12,559 Speaker 1: that bad boy out. As secondary's been a little weak 2051 01:39:12,600 --> 01:39:14,800 Speaker 1: for Alabama in the last two years. That's why they 2052 01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:17,360 Speaker 1: backed off for George off that first drive and packed 2053 01:39:17,360 --> 01:39:21,000 Speaker 1: everybody up. They don't have the studs of a Marlin Humphrey. 2054 01:39:21,160 --> 01:39:23,920 Speaker 1: Caleb Downs is a stud down down with the true freshmen. 2055 01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:26,400 Speaker 1: Of course, the freshman's a stud. He leads the team 2056 01:39:26,400 --> 01:39:28,759 Speaker 1: in tackles, but that means he's not a lot of covering. 2057 01:39:29,000 --> 01:39:32,320 Speaker 1: He's playing up. He's helping support the run. But if 2058 01:39:32,320 --> 01:39:35,639 Speaker 1: you want to play top two safeties against Michigan, fine, 2059 01:39:35,720 --> 01:39:38,360 Speaker 1: they'll pull it out. They'll hit tight ends up the scene. 2060 01:39:38,479 --> 01:39:41,080 Speaker 1: They'll hit Donovan on the curl or on a wheel route. 2061 01:39:41,400 --> 01:39:43,200 Speaker 1: Trust me, if that's the game they want to play, 2062 01:39:43,400 --> 01:39:46,200 Speaker 1: Roaman Wilson will have four catches, but they'll be for 2063 01:39:46,320 --> 01:39:49,559 Speaker 1: like eighty nine ninety five yards in a touchdown. If 2064 01:39:49,600 --> 01:39:51,680 Speaker 1: that's the game Alabama wants to play. And I'm just 2065 01:39:51,720 --> 01:39:54,920 Speaker 1: speaking schematically. If you're gonna show me two safety safeties 2066 01:39:54,920 --> 01:39:58,519 Speaker 1: over the top against Michigan's run, game, have fun. I'll 2067 01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:00,880 Speaker 1: take ten play drives all day long. They're just gonna 2068 01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:01,960 Speaker 1: have to finish it on the defense. 2069 01:40:02,080 --> 01:40:03,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, they got to put an end zone and on 2070 01:40:03,439 --> 01:40:05,720 Speaker 2: the defensive side of the ball, they're gonna have to 2071 01:40:05,720 --> 01:40:08,320 Speaker 2: spy Jalen Milroe. So I hope that. But I mean, 2072 01:40:08,360 --> 01:40:10,439 Speaker 2: we got corners like Will Johnson on the back end. 2073 01:40:10,439 --> 01:40:13,120 Speaker 2: That's gonna really help be able to spy a guy 2074 01:40:13,160 --> 01:40:15,599 Speaker 2: like Jalen Milroe, who is a weapon both. 2075 01:40:15,760 --> 01:40:17,840 Speaker 1: I mean when he tucks the ball, he's a running back. 2076 01:40:18,080 --> 01:40:21,680 Speaker 1: He again, Sanders also too on the corners exactly, So 2077 01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:24,639 Speaker 1: you got two good guys who should be able to play. 2078 01:40:24,720 --> 01:40:24,880 Speaker 8: Man. 2079 01:40:25,240 --> 01:40:25,720 Speaker 1: That's the thing. 2080 01:40:25,920 --> 01:40:27,679 Speaker 2: Michigan is gonna do a lot of the same stuff 2081 01:40:27,680 --> 01:40:30,400 Speaker 2: that Alabama did against Georgia. They're gonna just go Jimmy 2082 01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:33,679 Speaker 2: Joe's That's what it's gonna be for Washington and Texas. 2083 01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:37,439 Speaker 2: I'm not a believer in Steve Sarkisian, especially. I think 2084 01:40:37,479 --> 01:40:40,640 Speaker 2: when you see the coaching disparities in these periods in 2085 01:40:40,720 --> 01:40:42,680 Speaker 2: time when you have, I mean literally a month to 2086 01:40:42,760 --> 01:40:46,000 Speaker 2: prepare just about for these games. So I think that 2087 01:40:46,160 --> 01:40:49,760 Speaker 2: my Washington they're the better coach team. Yes, I think 2088 01:40:49,760 --> 01:40:52,880 Speaker 2: they got the better quarterback. And you know roame with 2089 01:40:52,960 --> 01:40:55,160 Speaker 2: Donze to me is one of the better players on 2090 01:40:55,200 --> 01:40:58,120 Speaker 2: their offense. I really like his game as easton Stick 2091 01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:01,559 Speaker 2: Missus Joshua Palmer been the go ahead touchdown with eight 2092 01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:03,960 Speaker 2: to forty five left in the fourth quarter where it's 2093 01:41:03,960 --> 01:41:05,280 Speaker 2: the flag on the play, we'll see what it. 2094 01:41:05,320 --> 01:41:08,080 Speaker 1: Is legal shift who's fault is that? Martin? Because I 2095 01:41:08,160 --> 01:41:10,280 Speaker 1: want I'm asking to go back to a point that 2096 01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:13,640 Speaker 1: we mentioned about another quarterback receiver throw that happened a 2097 01:41:13,680 --> 01:41:15,640 Speaker 1: few weeks ago. Whose fault was that? Right there? It 2098 01:41:15,680 --> 01:41:18,080 Speaker 1: looked like to me it was a bad ball early, Okay, 2099 01:41:18,720 --> 01:41:21,720 Speaker 1: I put that on Palmer. You have to see where 2100 01:41:21,760 --> 01:41:24,400 Speaker 1: the corner and the safety helps coming from. The corner's 2101 01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:27,640 Speaker 1: playing you inside, So why would he throw it inside? 2102 01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:29,960 Speaker 1: You have to fade and turn and get your head 2103 01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:33,120 Speaker 1: around to the opposite side. I thought Easton threw this 2104 01:41:33,280 --> 01:41:35,840 Speaker 1: ball where he was supposed to throw the football. See, 2105 01:41:35,920 --> 01:41:38,639 Speaker 1: the corner's gonna shade him inside. He's got safety help 2106 01:41:38,680 --> 01:41:42,240 Speaker 1: inside too. Right here, you throw that outside exactly. He 2107 01:41:42,439 --> 01:41:44,400 Speaker 1: runs the wrong route. He threw it where he was 2108 01:41:44,400 --> 01:41:47,320 Speaker 1: supposed to go. That's why the Tyreek to a play. 2109 01:41:47,560 --> 01:41:50,760 Speaker 1: And if you're watching, hard knocks to Tyreek's going off. 2110 01:41:50,880 --> 01:41:53,400 Speaker 1: It's jokingly, but he's going off like, hey, man, don't 2111 01:41:53,400 --> 01:41:55,519 Speaker 1: throw that exploitive.

We've seen interim head coaches 2244 01:48:31,240 --> 01:48:33,800 Speaker 2: win their debut the last few times, and like. 2245 01:48:33,800 --> 01:48:35,439 Speaker 1: I told you at the bottom of last hour, I 2246 01:48:35,479 --> 01:48:37,320 Speaker 1: would have had this in my atomic dogs if we 2247 01:48:37,360 --> 01:48:39,799 Speaker 1: had done it before the game started. I thought Buffalo 2248 01:48:40,080 --> 01:48:41,040 Speaker 1: was due for a rip. 2249 01:48:41,360 --> 01:48:44,519 Speaker 2: But this right here is gonna be a heartbreaking loss 2250 01:48:44,600 --> 01:48:48,759 Speaker 2: if they don't find a way to hold Los Angeles 2251 01:48:48,800 --> 01:48:50,640 Speaker 2: out of the end zone as Gerald ever catches the 2252 01:48:50,680 --> 01:48:53,519 Speaker 2: ball for a first down right now, Buffalo, I mean 2253 01:48:53,680 --> 01:48:56,760 Speaker 2: Los Angeles on like the twenty two yard line, just 2254 01:48:56,960 --> 01:48:57,840 Speaker 2: right outside. 2255 01:48:57,520 --> 01:49:00,760 Speaker 1: The red zone. This is why scared a Buffalo and 2256 01:49:00,840 --> 01:49:05,080 Speaker 1: the playoffs is crazy, silly talk. If they're at home, okay, 2257 01:49:05,600 --> 01:49:07,720 Speaker 1: but if they going to the road, they're not the 2258 01:49:07,880 --> 01:49:11,240 Speaker 1: same football team. Like a lot of NFL teams. There 2259 01:49:11,280 --> 01:49:13,880 Speaker 1: are a lot of NFL teams that aren't the same 2260 01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:17,200 Speaker 1: team on the road, but Buffalo is one of them. 2261 01:49:17,280 --> 01:49:20,240 Speaker 1: They're not the same football team on the road. HiT's 2262 01:49:20,280 --> 01:49:22,800 Speaker 1: what we're watching today. Just get to the twenty one 2263 01:49:22,840 --> 01:49:25,759 Speaker 1: point mark. They've turned the ball over. They've thrown Josh 2264 01:49:25,840 --> 01:49:30,000 Speaker 1: Apple turnover Allen on the road. It's it's consistent, it's gravity. 2265 01:49:30,280 --> 01:49:32,840 Speaker 1: If you throw it up, it will fall. If you 2266 01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:35,599 Speaker 1: put him on the road, he's gonna turn the ball over. 2267 01:49:35,680 --> 01:49:37,880 Speaker 1: And those things start to seep into your team and 2268 01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:40,519 Speaker 1: seep it to other players. And that was actually cook 2269 01:49:40,600 --> 01:49:43,280 Speaker 1: second fumble, the first fumble. If they'd have challenged it, 2270 01:49:43,360 --> 01:49:45,040 Speaker 1: if the Chargers had a challenge, that they would have 2271 01:49:45,080 --> 01:49:46,880 Speaker 1: won the challenge. He didn't get the flag out. That 2272 01:49:47,040 --> 01:49:49,800 Speaker 1: was the whole McDermott running down there complaining to the 2273 01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:51,840 Speaker 1: rep saying, listen, I didn't want to time out. You 2274 01:49:51,960 --> 01:49:54,320 Speaker 1: did the reset the clock, resaid the clock. We're not 2275 01:49:54,479 --> 01:49:56,639 Speaker 1: asking for a time out. As the Chargers now get 2276 01:49:56,680 --> 01:49:59,360 Speaker 1: a false start after having I believe that's second to 2277 01:49:59,400 --> 01:50:01,360 Speaker 1: one or third one, uh to be able to get 2278 01:50:01,400 --> 01:50:03,880 Speaker 1: a first down second to one, So now they're gonna 2279 01:50:03,880 --> 01:50:06,800 Speaker 1: back up with miss James. That James miss is how 2280 01:50:06,840 --> 01:50:10,320 Speaker 1: you pronounced that? He miss miss gets a false start 2281 01:50:10,360 --> 01:50:12,280 Speaker 1: here and backs them up. But this is Buffalo on 2282 01:50:12,360 --> 01:50:14,960 Speaker 1: the road. That's why they don't scare mean they're not good. 2283 01:50:14,960 --> 01:50:16,920 Speaker 1: They wouldn't go to Miami and win, or go to 2284 01:50:17,040 --> 01:50:19,160 Speaker 1: Kansas City and win, or go to who else, or 2285 01:50:19,200 --> 01:50:21,840 Speaker 1: go to well, they may go to Jacksonville, but the Colts, 2286 01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:24,719 Speaker 1: the Colts may throw a little a little crank in everich. 2287 01:50:24,760 --> 01:50:27,080 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this, I did pick Jacksonville to win 2288 01:50:27,120 --> 01:50:31,200 Speaker 1: that division. I would not though, mind seeing the Colts 2289 01:50:31,840 --> 01:50:34,840 Speaker 1: like shock everybody and pull that division off. As the 2290 01:50:34,920 --> 01:50:37,800 Speaker 1: Bills after a false start now get a sack and 2291 01:50:37,920 --> 01:50:40,240 Speaker 1: back them up to fourth down and knock them out 2292 01:50:40,240 --> 01:50:41,840 Speaker 1: of field goal range. I think, is they gonna send 2293 01:50:41,920 --> 01:50:45,080 Speaker 1: Dicker the kicker in here for a kicker, they're gonna 2294 01:50:45,080 --> 01:50:46,519 Speaker 1: punt the ballway they have to punt the ball away, 2295 01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:48,559 Speaker 1: which they do. Yeah, they just get the game away 2296 01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:51,040 Speaker 1: right here. No, they're kicking. Is that is that Dicker 2297 01:50:51,080 --> 01:50:55,000 Speaker 1: coming in? Okay? The punter? Yeah, who had one of 2298 01:50:55,040 --> 01:50:57,519 Speaker 1: the funnier social media videos you'll see when he came 2299 01:50:57,600 --> 01:51:00,479 Speaker 1: out to plowing himself for the Pro Bowl to ro 2300 01:51:00,640 --> 01:51:05,519 Speaker 1: Bernard Matt mclonald's replacement with the sack fifty three yard 2301 01:51:05,520 --> 01:51:07,400 Speaker 1: field goals. So this is money. I'm all right. Unless 2302 01:51:07,439 --> 01:51:09,120 Speaker 1: he missed it left right, he's got the lake for this. 2303 01:51:09,240 --> 01:51:11,080 Speaker 1: I thought it was further back and it is right 2304 01:51:11,280 --> 01:51:15,680 Speaker 1: right down in the middle. So I mean, so we go. 2305 01:51:16,000 --> 01:51:19,880 Speaker 2: Tyler Dunn on sub Sac wrote that that twenty thousand 2306 01:51:19,960 --> 01:51:22,600 Speaker 2: word expose on the Buffalo Bills, and one of the 2307 01:51:22,720 --> 01:51:24,679 Speaker 2: things that, I mean, the number one thing that stood 2308 01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:26,880 Speaker 2: out was, you know, using nine to eleven as a 2309 01:51:26,920 --> 01:51:27,719 Speaker 2: motivational tool. 2310 01:51:28,240 --> 01:51:30,719 Speaker 1: But another one was how. 2311 01:51:30,880 --> 01:51:34,519 Speaker 2: Sean McDermott at the end of games starts to get worried, 2312 01:51:34,600 --> 01:51:37,720 Speaker 2: he starts to get nervous, he starts doing differently, and 2313 01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:43,120 Speaker 2: I think we kind of saw it after the Cadarius 2314 01:51:43,160 --> 01:51:46,160 Speaker 2: Tony went off was off sides in that game. Buffalo 2315 01:51:46,320 --> 01:51:49,040 Speaker 2: did not finish the game strong, not at all, and 2316 01:51:49,200 --> 01:51:53,240 Speaker 2: all it got overshadowed because because Kadarius Tony couldn't line 2317 01:51:53,320 --> 01:51:55,200 Speaker 2: up a step behind the line of scrimmage. 2318 01:51:55,240 --> 01:51:57,320 Speaker 1: He was, you know, damn near next to Von Miller 2319 01:51:57,600 --> 01:52:00,760 Speaker 1: who plays for the other team, but he was way 2320 01:52:00,840 --> 01:52:01,320 Speaker 1: off side. 2321 01:52:01,439 --> 01:52:04,960 Speaker 2: We've seen two Buffalo drives this quarter, one of which 2322 01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:07,800 Speaker 2: had three penalties and it ended in a fourth and 2323 01:52:07,880 --> 01:52:12,000 Speaker 2: twenty three. The other one a James Cook fumble. Josh 2324 01:52:12,080 --> 01:52:13,960 Speaker 2: Allen is going to have to come down in this 2325 01:52:14,080 --> 01:52:17,680 Speaker 2: Buffalo offense, Joe Brady calling the plays. They're going to 2326 01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:21,360 Speaker 2: come down and now win this game as they trailed 2327 01:52:21,520 --> 01:52:25,320 Speaker 2: twenty two to twenty one. Cameron Dicker five field goals 2328 01:52:25,400 --> 01:52:26,879 Speaker 2: made in the matchup. 2329 01:52:27,200 --> 01:52:29,880 Speaker 1: I have him on two playoff fantasy teams. Appreciate you, brother, 2330 01:52:30,200 --> 01:52:33,680 Speaker 1: Appreciate you for them fifteen points, buddy, thank you so much. 2331 01:52:33,720 --> 01:52:36,240 Speaker 1: But now watch watch what they do. They're gonna put it. 2332 01:52:36,320 --> 01:52:39,080 Speaker 1: You have time to run the football. Here's enough. There's 2333 01:52:39,200 --> 01:52:42,080 Speaker 1: enough players to run the football. As they're showing the 2334 01:52:42,200 --> 01:52:46,760 Speaker 1: dicker the kicker video that you just referenced and trying 2335 01:52:46,760 --> 01:52:49,160 Speaker 1: to get his votes almost like I'm a TV producer 2336 01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:54,240 Speaker 1: spare time. It looks like an old furniture commercial and 2337 01:52:54,320 --> 01:52:58,680 Speaker 1: old lawyer attorney commercial or something from the eighties and nineties. There, 2338 01:52:58,800 --> 01:53:01,960 Speaker 1: nice job, kiddo. I'm all for anybody that sticks to 2339 01:53:02,080 --> 01:53:04,280 Speaker 1: the roll man it sticks to the bit. But now 2340 01:53:04,640 --> 01:53:06,639 Speaker 1: you have time to run the football. But they're gonna 2341 01:53:06,640 --> 01:53:08,640 Speaker 1: put it in Josh's hand, and I just think that 2342 01:53:08,760 --> 01:53:10,160 Speaker 1: this can go south. They only need to get in 2343 01:53:10,200 --> 01:53:12,200 Speaker 1: field goal range. They don't have to score. They had 2344 01:53:12,200 --> 01:53:14,760 Speaker 1: to get field goal range. But with five fifteen in 2345 01:53:14,800 --> 01:53:16,920 Speaker 1: o'clock ticking down twenty two to twenty one, the first 2346 01:53:16,960 --> 01:53:18,800 Speaker 1: down throw right there. You don't want to leave too 2347 01:53:18,880 --> 01:53:20,880 Speaker 1: much time on the clock for the charge to come back. 2348 01:53:20,960 --> 01:53:22,320 Speaker 1: I want to do you want? You don't want to 2349 01:53:22,479 --> 01:53:25,320 Speaker 1: touch the ball again? Yeah, you want to mill come down, 2350 01:53:25,400 --> 01:53:28,920 Speaker 1: get first downs and just clock tick tick tick tick 2351 01:53:29,040 --> 01:53:32,360 Speaker 1: tick tick tick and just have it running because with 2352 01:53:32,439 --> 01:53:34,720 Speaker 1: five minutes left, yeah, he did five minutes un just 2353 01:53:34,840 --> 01:53:37,000 Speaker 1: under five minutes right now, Buffalo trailing by one. 2354 01:53:37,280 --> 01:53:40,000 Speaker 2: Josh Allen twelve for seventeen. This will be another game 2355 01:53:40,080 --> 01:53:41,880 Speaker 2: in which he did not complete a ton of passes. 2356 01:53:42,080 --> 01:53:44,439 Speaker 2: James Cook takes the handoff he's had. Oh my gosh, 2357 01:53:44,520 --> 01:53:45,679 Speaker 2: did he drop it again? 2358 01:53:45,840 --> 01:53:48,040 Speaker 1: And it looked like he did, and he regathered it 2359 01:53:48,479 --> 01:53:51,240 Speaker 1: and then just took the tackle. He did. The ball 2360 01:53:51,360 --> 01:53:54,160 Speaker 1: was kind of loose, and he regathered it and just said, okay, 2361 01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:56,599 Speaker 1: I'm not doing anything else. They got ninety five yards 2362 01:53:56,680 --> 01:53:58,479 Speaker 1: on the ground, but they've given up ninety eight. So 2363 01:53:58,960 --> 01:54:00,800 Speaker 1: you know they're headed towards the two hundred yard game. 2364 01:54:00,800 --> 01:54:02,200 Speaker 1: If they run a few more time, I mean, excuse me, 2365 01:54:02,240 --> 01:54:04,320 Speaker 1: a hundred yard game. They run a few more times here. 2366 01:54:04,400 --> 01:54:06,280 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you've got to 2367 01:54:06,320 --> 01:54:08,519 Speaker 1: put this in Josh Allen's hand, and I just when 2368 01:54:08,560 --> 01:54:11,240 Speaker 1: the balls in his hand and the clutch. Other than 2369 01:54:11,320 --> 01:54:13,880 Speaker 1: the playoff game, in case you don't know, we'll see 2370 01:54:13,880 --> 01:54:16,240 Speaker 1: a lot of great things happen. Man, I feel a 2371 01:54:16,360 --> 01:54:19,600 Speaker 1: turnover just coming. It just feels that way. But like 2372 01:54:19,680 --> 01:54:22,799 Speaker 1: I said, just got to get phild goal range. Chargers 2373 01:54:22,840 --> 01:54:25,160 Speaker 1: got two timeouts left, so they can't just bleed the clock. 2374 01:54:25,439 --> 01:54:27,280 Speaker 1: Because they have two times, they can start using their time. 2375 01:54:27,280 --> 01:54:29,479 Speaker 1: I wouldn't start now the four minute mark. Got to 2376 01:54:29,479 --> 01:54:31,200 Speaker 1: wait till maybe two and a half if it gets 2377 01:54:31,240 --> 01:54:32,800 Speaker 1: down to that, and then I started burning my time. 2378 01:54:32,800 --> 01:54:34,200 Speaker 1: I was gonna sure I got enough time to get 2379 01:54:34,280 --> 01:54:38,120 Speaker 1: myself into field goal kicking range. Coming up next, we'll 2380 01:54:38,240 --> 01:54:40,080 Speaker 1: have the remainder of this game. 2381 01:54:40,200 --> 01:54:41,840 Speaker 2: It might be over by the time we get off 2382 01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:44,720 Speaker 2: the air, and some NFL picks coming up for Sunday 2383 01:54:44,760 --> 01:54:46,360 Speaker 2: Martin and VJ, Fox Sports Radio. 2384 01:54:46,960 --> 01:54:49,000 Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph and the guy in the empties, the set 2385 01:54:49,320 --> 01:54:51,240 Speaker 1: fast over the middle list cut by Pickings. 2386 01:54:51,360 --> 01:54:54,440 Speaker 11: He's hundred way, he shit the thirty, the fifty, the 2387 01:54:54,600 --> 01:54:58,680 Speaker 11: forty five to forty.

I mean earlier today 2442 01:57:30,480 --> 01:57:32,160 Speaker 2: they didn't. I mean earlier this year, they didn't. 2443 01:57:31,920 --> 01:57:34,160 Speaker 1: Cover five and a half and the team only scored six. 2444 01:57:34,600 --> 01:57:36,320 Speaker 1: It was six and enough. It's two weeks ago, just 2445 01:57:36,360 --> 01:57:39,160 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, ten points against Kansas City. Oh, I 2446 01:57:39,240 --> 01:57:41,920 Speaker 1: gotta get that. No, there's Tony Differ rapid, but no, 2447 01:57:42,240 --> 01:57:43,880 Speaker 1: none of that. They're the worst kicker in the league. 2448 01:57:44,080 --> 01:57:47,160 Speaker 1: Now give me give me that Denver. All right? 2449 01:57:47,480 --> 01:57:51,960 Speaker 9: The uh battle of number one quarterbacks here, Cardinals and 2450 01:57:52,040 --> 01:57:55,840 Speaker 9: the Bears. Bears favored by four in this one, Martin. 2451 01:57:55,600 --> 01:57:56,080 Speaker 1: Who you got? 2452 01:57:56,320 --> 01:57:58,400 Speaker 2: I wonder if the Bears will still be favored by 2453 01:57:58,480 --> 01:58:02,440 Speaker 2: four or more. That Darnel Moody came down with that 2454 01:58:02,840 --> 01:58:05,480 Speaker 2: Hail Mary at the end of man last week. I'm 2455 01:58:05,480 --> 01:58:07,160 Speaker 2: gonna go ahead take the Bears here. They've been playing 2456 01:58:07,200 --> 01:58:09,120 Speaker 2: really good ball since the trade for montest whatat and 2457 01:58:09,240 --> 01:58:11,400 Speaker 2: Justin Fields is back in the lineup, and that team 2458 01:58:11,600 --> 01:58:14,480 Speaker 2: feels like they're playing for something. And that's something is 2459 01:58:14,520 --> 01:58:17,080 Speaker 2: for Justin fields to keep his job. I did like 2460 01:58:17,160 --> 01:58:19,040 Speaker 2: the Cardinals with the dog. But if you're asking me 2461 01:58:19,120 --> 01:58:20,720 Speaker 2: with these pics right here to make a game up 2462 01:58:20,760 --> 01:58:22,000 Speaker 2: with my man and. 2463 01:58:22,080 --> 01:58:23,840 Speaker 1: My partner here, I gotta go. I gotta go with 2464 01:58:23,920 --> 01:58:26,120 Speaker 1: the Bears here too. Just today, take a team. You 2465 01:58:26,280 --> 01:58:29,040 Speaker 1: just took the car something that was a different segment, 2466 01:58:29,040 --> 01:58:30,920 Speaker 1: but it's the same football game. I know, but it's 2467 01:58:30,960 --> 01:58:33,400 Speaker 1: a different segment. But it's the same game, different segment. 2468 01:58:33,440 --> 01:58:34,880 Speaker 1: You guys said I could do that earlier in the year, 2469 01:58:35,000 --> 01:58:35,640 Speaker 1: so that said, oh. 2470 01:58:35,760 --> 01:58:36,120 Speaker 4: We did it. 2471 01:58:36,200 --> 01:58:38,000 Speaker 1: That's madness. I can get pick one. And then the 2472 01:58:39,000 --> 01:58:42,400 Speaker 1: so VJ thinks both the Bears cover for and the 2473 01:58:42,520 --> 01:58:44,720 Speaker 1: Cardinals cover four. So there you go four or four 2474 01:58:44,800 --> 01:58:46,800 Speaker 1: and listen, at least I'm being honest, man, for the 2475 01:58:46,920 --> 01:58:50,080 Speaker 1: purpose of trying to make games up here and come 2476 01:58:50,120 --> 01:58:52,160 Speaker 1: back and win our battle this year. Give me the 2477 01:58:52,200 --> 01:58:54,400 Speaker 1: Bears right here. So give me Bears right here to 2478 01:58:54,440 --> 01:58:58,760 Speaker 1: cover against the Cardinals. Madness, It's madness, all right. Raiders 2479 01:58:59,360 --> 01:59:04,800 Speaker 1: at the Chiefs at Home favored by ten VJ. This 2480 01:59:05,040 --> 01:59:06,720 Speaker 1: was a tough one for me too, man, because I'm 2481 01:59:06,800 --> 01:59:08,600 Speaker 1: like Martin, I really don't like double digits. One of 2482 01:59:08,640 --> 01:59:11,080 Speaker 1: these double Digits are gonna lose. We might be watching 2483 01:59:11,160 --> 01:59:12,920 Speaker 1: one of them right now if they don't milk this 2484 01:59:13,000 --> 01:59:15,040 Speaker 1: thing all the way down. But I think the Chiefs 2485 01:59:15,120 --> 01:59:17,560 Speaker 1: at home against the Raiders can pull this off. I 2486 01:59:17,640 --> 01:59:20,440 Speaker 1: think two touchdowns. They're at home, they're trying to still 2487 01:59:20,520 --> 01:59:23,520 Speaker 1: get this thing together. The Raiders did have a great, 2488 01:59:23,720 --> 01:59:26,120 Speaker 1: great blowout game last week. I don't think they keep 2489 01:59:26,200 --> 01:59:28,600 Speaker 1: that up at Christmas Day going there with the Chiefs. 2490 01:59:28,640 --> 01:59:30,120 Speaker 1: Give me the Chiefs here to cover at home. 2491 01:59:30,440 --> 01:59:32,200 Speaker 2: I'll take the ten with the Raiders, and they've been 2492 01:59:32,200 --> 01:59:34,919 Speaker 2: playing hard for Antonio Pierce. The defense has been impressive 2493 01:59:34,960 --> 01:59:37,640 Speaker 2: in my opinion, and just last week this team was 2494 01:59:37,840 --> 01:59:40,000 Speaker 2: a ten point favorite against the worst human in the AFC, 2495 01:59:40,200 --> 01:59:40,760 Speaker 2: the Patriots. 2496 01:59:41,840 --> 01:59:45,120 Speaker 1: The Raiders are better than the Patriots all right. 2497 01:59:45,240 --> 01:59:49,800 Speaker 9: Game of the Week, Monday Night Football, Ravens at the 2498 01:59:49,880 --> 01:59:52,800 Speaker 9: forty nine Ers. They're given the forty nine Ers six 2499 01:59:53,040 --> 01:59:55,040 Speaker 9: in this game, Martin, who you got? 2500 01:59:55,320 --> 01:59:58,040 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson is seventeen and one against the NFC. I 2501 01:59:58,120 --> 02:00:00,520 Speaker 2: think it continues. I like the Ravens to win outright, 2502 02:00:00,640 --> 02:00:02,120 Speaker 2: but I'll go ahead and take the six. If you're 2503 02:00:02,120 --> 02:00:04,200 Speaker 2: giving me a little insurance, I'm gonna go ahead. 2504 02:00:04,200 --> 02:00:06,280 Speaker 1: And take the Ravens that just win outright, because I'm 2505 02:00:06,320 --> 02:00:08,560 Speaker 1: pulling for Lamar Jackson to pull this off because I 2506 02:00:08,640 --> 02:00:10,520 Speaker 1: want to see what this narrative Monday is going to 2507 02:00:10,560 --> 02:00:12,600 Speaker 1: be when the Niners dropped this game, and what the 2508 02:00:12,640 --> 02:00:15,440 Speaker 1: narrative would be for Lamar Jackson being the MVP front 2509 02:00:15,520 --> 02:00:17,280 Speaker 1: runner once this game is over. But I think the 2510 02:00:17,360 --> 02:00:18,960 Speaker 1: Ravers run the ball, their defense is great. 2511 02:00:19,160 --> 02:00:21,360 Speaker 2: Tyler Bass is lining up for a field goal fourth 2512 02:00:21,400 --> 02:00:23,480 Speaker 2: to eight thirty one seconds left in the fourth quarter. 2513 02:00:23,720 --> 02:00:26,160 Speaker 2: Jason Martin and Aaron Tors will have the remainder of 2514 02:00:26,200 --> 02:00:27,760 Speaker 2: that will come up next block for us right out
