They showed up and they are undefeated. 387 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 5: And I'm gonna give a shout out to Blake Korum 388 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 5: because that dude is unstoppable. 389 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 3: Well, last year he got hurt, wasn't able to finish 390 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 3: the season. 391 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 5: So here he is now eighty eight yards on the ground, 392 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 5: two touchdowns on the ground. 393 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 3: I mean he looked like they couldn't stop him. Oh yeah, no, 394 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 3: they couldn't. They couldn't. Yeah, this is beautiful. It was 395 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 3: this is great. 396 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: You're listening to Fox Sports Saturday. I'm Alex Curry, he 397 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 2: with Manzie Bolanos. We are broadcasting live from the tyrec 398 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 2: dot Com studios in Los Angeles, and you guys. 399 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 3: Our football week has been. 400 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 2: Glorious and it all started out on Monday Night, Monday 401 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 2: Night Football with the battle of the Best. And the 402 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,360 Speaker 2: two things that I took away from this game wasn't 403 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 2: a pretty one. 404 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,120 Speaker 3: It was rainy, it was wet, it was sloppy. 405 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 2: Eagles are the best team in the league right now 406 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 2: and the Chiefs are in trouble. Really Okay, now, this 407 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: was a Super Bowl. People are calling it the rematch 408 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 2: the two best teams in the league on the biggest stage. 409 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 2: And the reason that I say the Eagles are the 410 00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 2: best team in the league right now is because they 411 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 2: find ways to win. Okay, once again, they don't have 412 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,360 Speaker 2: the best stats in the league, not even. 413 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 3: Top three in majority of the categories. 414 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 2: In offense fifth, in points per game ninth and yards 415 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 2: per game hurts is eleventh, and passer rating twelfth and 416 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 2: passing yards defense is middle of the pack, sixteenth in 417 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 2: points allowed, fourteenth in yards allowed. 418 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 3: But teams like this are dangerous. A team that may. 419 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 2: Not play their best, but they continue to find ways 420 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 2: to win. Okay, and they had some of their I 421 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 2: don't know, this is this is where I took the Chiefs. Okay, 422 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 2: so this is not the way I wanted the game 423 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 2: to go. But the Chiefs, the Chiefs hurt themselves in 424 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: this game. Okay, So more than the Eagles being the best, 425 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 2: the Chiefs have a real, real problem. Right Patrick Mahomes 426 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 2: through two beautiful passes at the end of the game, 427 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 2: hit mvs in the hand, touchdown could have given them 428 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 2: the lead with under two minutes to go. They were 429 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 2: beating themselves. She's a twenty six drops this season. They 430 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 2: lead the NFL in drop passes. That shouldn't happen when 431 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: you have the best quarterback in the game. Right now, 432 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 2: Get Mahomes. 433 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 3: Some top wide receivers. Okay, even Kelsey, who's this like 434 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 3: number one target, favorite target in the Kelsey of last year. 435 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 2: No, he even had Yeah, he even had like a 436 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 2: weird ify dropped. But I'm gonna tell you this is 437 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 2: what a true leader does and why I like Patrick 438 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 2: Mahomes because when he was asked about his wide receivers 439 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 2: after the game. 440 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 3: This was his response. 441 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 10: They know I'm gonna keep firing it. That's just who 442 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 10: I am. I'm gonna fire it to the guy who's open. 443 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 10: Usually they make that. They're gonna make the plays. I mean, 444 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 10: it happens. I mean out their interception in the red 445 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 10: zone on if I just fly in. 446 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 4: J watt Off. 447 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,080 Speaker 10: So it wouldn't that wouldn't that didn't just lose the game. 448 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 10: I mean there's a lot of stuff that happened throughout 449 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 10: the game, and so you just kind of keep firing. 450 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 3: Great answer. 451 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 2: He never throws his teammates publicly. No, under the bus. 452 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 2: That is what a true leader does. I need to 453 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 2: be better. I'm going to keep throwing it. Not their 454 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 2: fault totally. I mean, they could have won the game. 455 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: They could have easily won the game, but they didn't. 456 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I don't think that the Chiefs are in trouble. 457 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 5: I agree that the Eagles. I can't say the Eagles 458 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 5: aren't the best team. They have the best record, they passes, 459 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 5: I know, but the Chiefs are going to win their division. 460 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 5: The Chiefs are likely going to have a bye week 461 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 5: one when we head into the playoffs. I think they 462 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 5: know what they're missing, and like you said, one drop 463 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 5: pass away from taking the lead in that game. 464 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 3: The Eagles secondary is not what it was last year. 465 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 5: As you just mentioned, they are winning ugly, and good 466 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 5: teams need to win ugly. A great point at that, 467 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 5: But I really don't. I don't think the Chiefs are 468 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 5: in trouble at all. We they we know what their 469 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 5: problems are and we have seen it all season. 470 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 3: What are they gonna do about it? How are they 471 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 3: gonna tighten up? Is the question? But the Eagles to me, 472 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 3: I I think I don't. I've said it. I just don't. 473 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 5: I know their record there, I can't say they're not 474 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 5: they have the best record. I don't think they're as 475 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 5: dominant as we've seen other teams in the past. There 476 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 5: is no That's the thing is. 477 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 2: They haven't even like, we haven't even seen how good 478 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 2: they can be. Sure they are winning ugly and they 479 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 2: know that. But that's what matters. That's what matters at 480 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 2: the end of the day, did you win or did 481 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: you lose? And they won and they continue to win, 482 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 2: right But in. 483 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 5: The city, what I'm saying is like the Chiefs are 484 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 5: still going to the super Bowl or the playoffs. Maybe maybe, 485 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 5: but they're gonna they're gonna win their division, and they're 486 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 5: probably gonna have a buy. 487 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 3: I just don't think that they are. I don't think 488 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 3: they're in trouble. I don't think so. 489 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say good news for the Chiefs on this 490 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 2: short week because both of them are playing two games 491 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 2: in the weeks.

I mean what I saw on that 586 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 9: things giving game, like Gil Smith had no chance, Like 587 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 9: no one had a chance at that point. I mean, 588 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 9: they completely dominated all phases of the game. And I 589 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 9: think the only touchdown that's the seahawksy to have was 590 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 9: the pick sick. So it was one of those things 591 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 9: that they They've done that multiple times in the season. 592 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 9: I think when they they've had like these rematch games 593 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 9: and they've had these like redemption games, and they just 594 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 9: show exactly what they could do on defense as well 595 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 9: as on offense.

But for me, 639 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 9: he's not like a front runner. I mean, obviously, I 640 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 9: think you know, when you're confirmed to be a robot 641 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 9: and you're screwing you know everything in your head, we're 642 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 9: setting you back out. I think that's a robot. 643 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 4: You're not allowed to be. 644 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 9: In NVK conversations anymore. But you know, I think that 645 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 9: with him. 646 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 4: It's like he's one of those guys. 647 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 9: I don't know if he beats that guy to win MVP. 648 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 9: And I say that because the last non QB to 649 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 9: win the MVP was also least running back to win 650 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 9: the MVP, which is Adrian Peterson, and he was coming 651 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 9: back from an APL injury. 652 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 4: He ran for. 653 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 9: Career high over two thousand yards thirteen tds in sixteen games. 654 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 9: So I think, like, when you kind of put that 655 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 9: side by side, I think, obviously like we want to 656 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 9: have him in that conversation, but to me, like, he's 657 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 9: not the guy. He's not a front runner, and he's 658 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 9: not who I'm gonna pick. He's not exactly who I 659 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 9: would have with that title, although obviously I would always 660 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 9: warn him on the team. 661 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 5: Elisa, I could not disagree with you more girl on that, because. 662 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 9: Out there he has been the. 663 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 5: Most consistent on any team you remove him from. 664 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 3: The forty nine ers are the forty nine ers what 665 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 3: they are? That's I think? 666 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: I think. 667 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 9: So I think, God Kittle, you got de Bo, you 668 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 9: have the number. 669 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 4: One scoring defense. 670 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 9: I mean, to me, it's just like he's fit then 671 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 9: and they do need him, But without him, do I 672 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 9: think they still win? Yes? I do. 673 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 3: George Kittle has not been the George Kittle either, because 674 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 3: they just have too many weapons. 675 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 5: So I get what you're saying that you take one 676 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 5: weapon out, they can still spread the ball around. 677 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 3: I hear what you're saying. Maybe I'm just too much 678 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 3: of a Christian ccount. You think he has scored? How 679 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 3: many touchdowns is he in? How many games? I'm not 680 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 3: making stuff up. 681 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 4: I'm saying. 682 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 9: I'm saying I think I think he's in the conversation. 683 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 9: Do I take him as my winner? I don't, but 684 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 9: I think he's he like to me, I just feel 685 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 9: like you have Jalen Hurts out there playing going into 686 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 9: the toughest schedule, boy into this season, and you're sitting 687 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 9: pretty at nine and one. 688 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 10: Runner. 689 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 9: To me, Jalen Hurts was my frien runner friend. Mbe 690 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 9: what he's done coming back from that Super Bowl loss, 691 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 9: going into the season with the toughest schedule in the NFL, 692 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 9: and you're sitting at nine and one. 693 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 3: Thank you. 694 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 2: I just went about I just telling that the Eagles 695 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: are the best team, and she goes, no, they're not, 696 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 2: and sheifs are in trouble. So it's okay, You're on 697 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 2: This is normal you're supposed to disagree with Lacy and 698 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 2: you're on this is. 699 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 3: This is why I bring in my guests. 700 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 2: She wants to get this is how you gang up 701 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,239 Speaker 2: on Me's not at all okay. So we're getting the 702 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 2: best of the NFC next weekend. When the Eagles play 703 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 2: the forty nine ers. I mean, it was the NFC 704 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 2: championship game last. 705 00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 3: Year where Brock pretty hurt. 706 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 2: Does feel like a redemption game if the forty nine 707 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 2: ers are at full strength. 708 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 9: You know, I think I think for the forty nine ers, 709 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 9: they don't even consider like, oh, like we could have 710 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 9: won that effect for them. They were dealt the worst card. 711 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 4: Last year in that game. But I think for them, I. 712 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 9: Don't think it's much of a redemtion game or like, 713 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 9: let's me creview maybe of what's to come or what 714 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 9: could have been right. But I think we had this 715 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 9: conversation too when the Eagles played the Chiefments, but this 716 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 9: is a redemtion game, and I'm like, ah, really, you know, 717 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 9: it's like you you lost the opportunity to win it, 718 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 9: all right, And so I think like when you see 719 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 9: that team again, like it's a cool little lock back, 720 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 9: but it's not. It's never going to fulfill what you 721 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 9: could have had. But I think, you know, showcasing this 722 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 9: is gonna be interesting to see the next two weeks 723 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 9: for the Eagles, especially because I'm standing strong on Jalen Hurts, 724 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 9: because Hurts has a pretty good passer rating two week 725 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 9: three behind him are Dak Prescott and Brock Hurting. So 726 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 9: it's again, you're going to face these two quarterbacks in 727 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 9: back to back weeks, and so I think, you know, 728 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 9: for I think it's of the ultimate test of the 729 00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 9: Egles to kind of se like, okay, like you're going 730 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 9: against these two that you're gonna see at some point 731 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 9: again down the line. I think he can get the better. 732 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 4: Side of it. But as far as for the for 733 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 4: the forty nine. 734 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 9: Ers, I feel like it's definitely like, look, we're gonna 735 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 9: show what should have been and what's going to be. 736 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 4: The Seasons want like the sneak preview. 737 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 9: And as far as like the redemption name for them, 738 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 9: they want that in on the biggest stage for it 739 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 9: to be a redemption game. They want the exact same scenario. 740 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 5: Once again, Nick Sirianni acting like that game on Monday 741 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 5: against the Chiefs was the greatest moment of his life. 742 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 5: He was over there, so like, they're They're gonna definitely celebrate. 743 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 5: But I do agree with you, and you said that 744 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 5: this is gonna be a big test for the Eagles, 745 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 5: and maybe I'm eating my words and I'm changing my mind. 746 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 3: In three weeks, Oh, see what happens. We'll see what happens. 747 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 5: I'm waiting to see if they how they do in 748 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 5: these next couple of games. You have been to so 749 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 5: many different games, different stadiums. Is there like a fan 750 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 5: base that like has shocked you the most that you 751 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 5: were like, man, I was not expecting this type of vibe. 752 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 9: Here, uh you Cincinnati? Cincinnati was Yeah. I was there 753 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 9: for the stripeout game and so yeah, and what trust me, 754 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 9: when you don't know this is happening, You're kind of 755 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 9: looking around and you're saying, like, wait, why is it 756 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 9: turning into a tighter? There at so huge the whole 757 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 9: lot And the next thing you know, you have this 758 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 9: aerial shot and everything, and I'm looking at how do 759 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 9: these fans know to be so color coordinated? Like, I'm 760 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 9: not so confused. It was probably the greatest display of 761 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,399 Speaker 9: just like fandom that I've seen live, the way that 762 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 9: this the entire stadium just rallied, the music, like you know, 763 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 9: the fireworks, everything. They put on such a big show 764 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 9: for some the night football and the strip fell just 765 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 9: looked so amazing on TV, like and just like the 766 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 9: way the fans responded, the way the players responded. They 767 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 9: were looking at the crowd and I saw no other fans. 768 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 9: I was like, is this is so just Bengal fans? 769 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 9: Because I see no other team colors, And so that 770 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 9: was probably the one that shocked me the most. 771 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 4: Obviously. 772 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 9: I know that Cincinnati Bengo fans are are really big, 773 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 9: and we saw them when they came out here to LA, 774 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 9: But to be in their home environment and see them 775 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 9: show out that way and be so coordinated, I was like, 776 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 9: that's some I've never seen anything like that.

Another thing 986 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:45,920 Speaker 5: to point out is around week seven or eight, there 987 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,239 Speaker 5: was that story that came out because everyone was like, oh, 988 00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 5: and Aaron Rodgers took over for the Packers. It was 989 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,399 Speaker 5: around week seven or eight that they were like, that's 990 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,279 Speaker 5: our franchise quarterback. And at that point the Packers came 991 00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,879 Speaker 5: out and were like, we can't say that yet. 992 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 3: We're still evaluating. Yeah, and you didn't know. 993 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:02,400 Speaker 5: It wasn't like he can't do it. It was just 994 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,799 Speaker 5: like we're not sure yet. Then he kind of like 995 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 5: slowly but surely started getting into a bit of a 996 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 5: groove and we saw it. 997 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,319 Speaker 3: Last week and then this game. It was from beginning. 998 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 5: To end, Jordan Love had full control of that game. 999 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 2: Like, good for you, dude, Like take a bow, yeah. 1000 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, over the Lions who have not won on Thanksgiving. 1001 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:28,280 Speaker 3: I mean, what happened? 1002 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 2: Can we just ask this was their game to win 1003 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 2: at home on Thanksgiving? I mean, but Jared Goff like 1004 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 2: three fumbles after three to like turnovers. 1005 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 3: Lasting early in the game, having some turnover. 1006 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 2: Issues recently, which is out of character because that's not 1007 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 2: something we normally see from him. But he The Lions 1008 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 2: came into this game, you guys, leading the NFC North. 1009 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,320 Speaker 2: They had an eight and two record, their best start 1010 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 2: to a season since nineteen sixty two. 1011 00:45:58,760 --> 00:45:59,760 Speaker 3: This was their. 1012 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:04,719 Speaker 2: Chance to finally but apparently Thanksgiving has been the kryptonite. 1013 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, they've lost seven straight years. Yeah, last win on. 1014 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 2: Thanksgiving was twenty sixteen, so I yeah, this is brutal. 1015 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 2: We have Carmen Fatalite coming up at the bottom of 1016 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 2: the hour. She was at this game and covers these 1017 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:23,240 Speaker 2: teams extremely closely, so I'm excited to get her insight 1018 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 2: on that. 1019 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:27,280 Speaker 5: But that was it really just goes to show, well, 1020 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 5: you know, we could still say that they're a bit 1021 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 5: like right, young and inexperience, like they're still figuring things 1022 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 5: out together. The lines is a group together because like 1023 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 5: you know, Jared Goff got there last year, everyone was like. 1024 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 3: He's the reason the Rooms aren't winning. That's where they 1025 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 3: got rid of him, and. 1026 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 5: Then they kind of got into a groove and then 1027 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 5: did the last season in a groove and we're still seeing. 1028 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 3: Them be good. 1029 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:47,839 Speaker 5: I just think it goes to show that there is 1030 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 5: no dominant team. Everybody has flaws, and it's not great 1031 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 5: that Jared Goff's last two games have come with some 1032 00:46:57,080 --> 00:47:00,160 Speaker 5: mistakes that have hurt them. It's always hard to come 1033 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 5: back from behind. Last game they ended up winning, but 1034 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 5: remember they were down to the Bears. Yeah, and then 1035 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,399 Speaker 5: they came out on top. The situation started that way, 1036 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 5: so I guess there was a little bit of a 1037 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 5: hope that you could come back again. 1038 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:13,960 Speaker 2: I mean, this it's a division, a division game, leading 1039 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 2: the division, the best record that you've had coming into 1040 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 2: that game since nineteen sixty two. This was like should 1041 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 2: have been a layup. 1042 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 3: So could we say. 1043 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:27,279 Speaker 5: It's psychological, like the pressure of that were every every 1044 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 5: time you turn the TV on. 1045 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 3: Before the game. They haven't won since twenty sixteen, they've 1046 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 3: lost six in a row. They can't win on Thanksgiving, 1047 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:35,200 Speaker 3: That's all you heard. 1048 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:35,279 Speaker 9: I know. 1049 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:37,279 Speaker 3: So could it be just. 1050 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 5: A fluke a psychological game? And we should not actually 1051 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 5: judge them. That's when I'm asked, Carmen, should we actually 1052 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 5: not judge the Lions? 1053 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 2: Like, because I don't think that should be the focus. 1054 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 2: I think it should be like Jordan Love, you went off, 1055 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 2: you had a game, enjoy it, and that that should 1056 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:57,280 Speaker 2: be the focus. 1057 00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 3: Like again, like, yeah, Lions are leading the division. There 1058 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,919 Speaker 3: still are Packers. Packers outplayed them, Yeah, Backers out played 1059 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 3: them all right, But we had another. 1060 00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:12,200 Speaker 2: Our first blowout of the day, Cowboys beating the Commanders 1061 00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:15,400 Speaker 2: forty five to ten. Dak put up some great numbers 1062 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 2: three hundred and thirty one passing yards, four touchdowns, his 1063 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:22,400 Speaker 2: best passer rating of the season, and Deron Bland, the 1064 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 2: Cowboys corner now with the most pick six is in 1065 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 2: a single season. He got his fifth on Thanksgiving. They're 1066 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 2: eight and three right now, the Cowboys. Right on paper, 1067 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 2: they look amazing. Everyone's playing great. Dak should get the recognition. 1068 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:46,240 Speaker 2: The stats are great, but most of their wins teams 1069 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 2: have come over not great teams, the Giants, the Jets, 1070 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 2: the Patriots, the Chargers, the Rams, the Giants, the Panthers, 1071 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 2: the Commanders. Their two biggest tests have been against the 1072 00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 2: forty nine Ers, and Eagles. 1073 00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 3: They've lost both of those games. 1074 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,439 Speaker 2: And once you get to the play you are going 1075 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 2: to be facing great teams like the forty nine ers, 1076 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 2: and like the Eagles and the Couples don't have a 1077 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,319 Speaker 2: great playoff record. I don't know four playoff wins since 1078 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:12,360 Speaker 2: two thousand four wins and twenty three years. 1079 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:15,799 Speaker 3: No, I'm glad. I'm really glad you said that it's 1080 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 3: there there. That's a good thing. 1081 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,879 Speaker 2: The record looks great on paper, but when you look 1082 00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 2: who they're winning and losing to, they need to prove 1083 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:25,440 Speaker 2: that they can beat a great team. 1084 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 5: And they have a couple of games that are gonna 1085 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 5: test that coming up. But yeah, everybody like they they 1086 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 5: killed the commanders and they killed the Giants, and it's like. 1087 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:34,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, you should have. You should have. 1088 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 2: In fact, exactly everybody was like, oh, Douglas. 1089 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,879 Speaker 3: And it's like, listen, taxa fine quarterbacks. It's not but yes, 1090 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:44,399 Speaker 3: you were supposed to perform that way. 1091 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 5: If you didn't perform that way, they weren't having this 1092 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 5: very bad conversation. 1093 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:52,120 Speaker 3: But I'm not impressed, are you? Are you impressed? As 1094 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 3: why am I impressed you did to the commanders into 1095 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:55,919 Speaker 3: the Giants. 1096 00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:57,840 Speaker 5: I want to see what you do to the Eagles 1097 00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 5: when you see them in two weeks with the Bills 1098 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:00,799 Speaker 5: the Dolphins. 1099 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:02,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, that'll be the real test. That'll be the real 1100 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 2: So it's like, good playoffsoll be the real test. You 1101 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 2: need to win some playoff. 1102 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 3: Games, correct, and good for you. But you, I I 1103 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 3: don't believe you yet. I don't know. You have to 1104 00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:13,920 Speaker 3: win in the playoffs. That's when you can believe. 1105 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,839 Speaker 2: Four playoff wins in twenty three years is like not 1106 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 2: gonna cut it. Well, yeah, I'm not gonna I'm not 1107 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 2: gonna believe. I show me the receipts and I guess. 1108 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 2: The Panthers, yeah, who we know, aren't good? So okay, 1109 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 2: decent midday game. Sure, a second game, yeah, ice little blowout. 1110 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 2: They were eating turkey legs after scoring a touchdown and 1111 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 2: then throwing them in the crowd after the game. 1112 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 3: If you listen to our d's and dance, that was 1113 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,400 Speaker 3: a big don't for me. I was Alex was not 1114 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:45,320 Speaker 3: a fan. Not a fan, not a fan. Okay, But 1115 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 3: we got three games on Thanksgiving. 1116 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 2: And Christian McCaffrey and the forty nine ers showed up 1117 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 2: and showed out on Thanksgiving in Seattle. I mean they 1118 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:56,080 Speaker 2: were up twenty four to three at halftime. Yeah, they 1119 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,800 Speaker 2: got Devo back who got a rushing touchdown. Christian McCaffrey 1120 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:00,800 Speaker 2: went off with one hundred fourteen years it's two touchdowns. 1121 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:04,360 Speaker 2: Leads the league in rushing yards right now, Christian McCaffrey. 1122 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 3: And you believe he should be in the MVP conversation, 1123 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 3: I think so. 1124 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 5: I just he has been incredibly consistent, aside from the 1125 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,399 Speaker 5: one game. He had a seventeen game streak of hitting 1126 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,680 Speaker 5: a touch of getting a touchdown, whether on the ground 1127 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 5: or catching it in the air. And then the Niners 1128 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:21,799 Speaker 5: try to break that street. Did you watch that game? 1129 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,400 Speaker 5: They the last play, they all four. They were like, 1130 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 5: come on, we're gonna try and get you in there, 1131 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 5: and he didn't get in there, and then literally came 1132 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 5: back and was like, all right, I'm back in it, 1133 00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 5: starting a new streak. Yeah, Like, I really do think 1134 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:35,239 Speaker 5: he should be in the conversation. 1135 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:39,400 Speaker 2: According to DraftKings, he has a sixth best odds six. 1136 00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:42,440 Speaker 3: Tell me who's before him? What does Draft Kings say, 1137 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 3: who's the top one? Probably it's probably quarterbacks. 1138 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 5: Okay, there's not five quarterbacks better than Christian McCaffrey. 1139 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 3: CJ.

It sounds 1157 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 5: like I am. No, I'm a Chargers fans. Maybe I 1158 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,279 Speaker 5: just need to jump ship or something like Christian. I 1159 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 5: don't see how he's not a top three conversation. 1160 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:51,360 Speaker 3: Okay. 1161 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,280 Speaker 2: The good news forty Niners feel like they're back. Feels 1162 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,440 Speaker 2: like they're back to the full strength the way they 1163 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 2: started the season, and now they have a few extra 1164 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 2: days is to get rested and ready for the Eagles 1165 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:05,880 Speaker 2: next week, because that's the one I'm already kind of 1166 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 2: circling right I'm excited for Eagles forty nine ers next week. 1167 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:10,399 Speaker 3: And Eagles have a short week, They're beat up. 1168 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 2: They're they're playing two games this week and have possibly 1169 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 2: they're one of their a I mean, they're going from 1170 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 2: the Chiefs to the Bills to the forty nine ers. 1171 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,720 Speaker 2: Eagles have a tough like week and a half stretch 1172 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:24,800 Speaker 2: right now. 1173 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:26,319 Speaker 3: So that's that's the one. 1174 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 2: I'm already like circling and getting ready for another. Thing 1175 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:32,800 Speaker 2: that was like a hot topic on Thanksgiving? Did you 1176 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:37,960 Speaker 2: see all the halftime shows girl? Starting with uh Jack Harlowe? 1177 00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:38,799 Speaker 3: What was that? 1178 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,880 Speaker 2: I gotta be honest and like this weird igloo like 1179 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:44,799 Speaker 2: paper mache thing it looks like they put out on 1180 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:45,240 Speaker 2: the field. 1181 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:48,080 Speaker 3: I was watching a bunch of the tiktoks and the. 1182 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 2: Reels of the fans that were there, and what it 1183 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 2: looked like live even worse than how it looked on TV, 1184 00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:55,240 Speaker 2: which I didn't know was actually possible. 1185 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,479 Speaker 3: The thing is is Jack doesn't have a lot of energy. 1186 00:53:57,480 --> 00:53:58,160 Speaker 3: I've watched him. 1187 00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:01,480 Speaker 2: I got to see him at uh the All Star 1188 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:04,359 Speaker 2: Games players party, the Fanatics players party, and he was 1189 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:06,719 Speaker 2: the performer a lot of fat show and he's just like. 1190 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 3: Very yes, I agree with you. The vibe doesn't matter 1191 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 3: a halftime show. It's underwhelming. 1192 00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 2: It's like we love his songs, yeah, great, great, like 1193 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 2: when you're listening like at home on your radio, like 1194 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 2: and he has like the background energy to it. 1195 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,799 Speaker 3: It just was and if he was like part of 1196 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:28,120 Speaker 3: a bigger show. But like the paper mache igloo, that's 1197 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:29,200 Speaker 3: so funny. That was so weird. 1198 00:54:29,239 --> 00:54:31,279 Speaker 5: At the beginning, there was a guy next to him 1199 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 5: who was just like behind him, swaying, singing along with him, 1200 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:37,040 Speaker 5: hy man. 1201 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:39,520 Speaker 2: But and you weren't hype, dude, you were just everyone 1202 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,680 Speaker 2: was calm. I apparently like that's the vibe, that's the thing, 1203 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:47,359 Speaker 2: I guess. But you know what game number two gave us. 1204 00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 2: Dolly Parton seventy seven years old, crushed it in her 1205 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 2: Dallas cheerleader's fit. 1206 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 3: She was amazing. She looked incredible. I mean everybody like 1207 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,600 Speaker 3: we were all like kind of looking up like how 1208 00:54:57,680 --> 00:54:59,359 Speaker 3: old is Dolly party? You couldn't believe it. 1209 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 2: Seventy seven years seventy seven like she's still shoot, she 1210 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:04,799 Speaker 2: crushed it out of all three what Steve Oki was 1211 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,760 Speaker 2: the final one in Seattle, which was weird club vibes 1212 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 2: for a halftime show, better than Jack Harlow, but like 1213 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:15,400 Speaker 2: also like Dolly, Dolly was the best Dolly was And 1214 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 2: I wasn't sure if. 1215 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:19,120 Speaker 3: She was actually singing live because I couldn't. 1216 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:21,840 Speaker 2: Okay, so I'm going to give you like a musician 1217 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:26,719 Speaker 2: because my husband's a musician. Right these halftime shows normally, 1218 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,879 Speaker 2: it is very well known in common you don't play 1219 00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 2: live because you can't get the sound set up time, 1220 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,479 Speaker 2: so it's pre recorded. So it is them singing, yes, 1221 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 2: just not in that moment. Like you'll notice a lot 1222 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,719 Speaker 2: of the time, like musicians will like make a thing 1223 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:42,799 Speaker 2: and make a joke of it, and their guitars won't 1224 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 2: even be plugged in, like so it's like they know. 1225 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 2: People in the industry know it's too hard. Again, I 1226 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:53,400 Speaker 2: cannot confirm if these were not, but like more often 1227 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 2: than not, they pre record it and then they like 1228 00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 2: play along to it because you can't get the sound 1229 00:55:58,200 --> 00:55:59,800 Speaker 2: set up, and that short of amount of time. 1230 00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,520 Speaker 3: Makes perfect sense. And I do think shecking. 1231 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:04,879 Speaker 5: I think she was actually talking on us on the mic, 1232 00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:06,439 Speaker 5: but I agree, I don't think she was singing. 1233 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:08,439 Speaker 3: Also, it makes perfect sense. 1234 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:10,759 Speaker 5: What if the sound goes down one bad thing in 1235 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:12,320 Speaker 5: the middle of the show, it has to look perfect, 1236 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 5: So it makes sense. 1237 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:18,719 Speaker 3: But very super fun with the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders led 1238 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 3: me too. I thought it was so fun fun, and 1239 00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 3: I wasn't expecting it. I think everybody's like Dolly, Yeah. 1240 00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was incredible. How about singing like we are 1241 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:32,759 Speaker 2: the champions? Though, like in Dallas, little like. 1242 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:34,840 Speaker 3: You weren't a fan of that one. I was like, 1243 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 3: that might hit like a. 1244 00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:40,399 Speaker 2: Little hard, like are you singing it because the Rangers just. 1245 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:41,920 Speaker 3: Won and they're the champions? 1246 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 2: Because I haven't seen any Cowboys championships in decades. 1247 00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 3: That was the only one that was a little like Dolly. Dolly, 1248 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:53,359 Speaker 3: Dolly who told you to sing that one? 1249 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 2: And she just was like, sure, let's go, babe, because 1250 00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:58,440 Speaker 2: she has a rock album that just came out. 1251 00:56:58,480 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 3: We listened to it last night. 1252 00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:05,279 Speaker 2: I love Dolly, but yeah, those nine to five love 1253 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 2: that Joeline every Jolie.

Come upon. 1288 00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 2: Someone who didn't mess up often in the NFL. Nice, nice, 1289 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:59,360 Speaker 2: top Brady. You had some thoughts about the NFL play recently. 1290 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:02,920 Speaker 2: You said there's a lot of mediocrity, mediocrity, and you know, 1291 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 2: before we dive into this, let's just listen to what 1292 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:07,479 Speaker 2: he had to say, because he went on Steven A's 1293 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,440 Speaker 2: show earlier this week. 1294 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,080 Speaker 14: I think there's a lot of mediocrity in today's NFL. 1295 00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 14: I don't see the excellence that I saw in the past. 1296 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 14: I think the coaching isn't as good as it was. 1297 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 4: I don't think the. 1298 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 14: Development of young players as good as it was. The 1299 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:22,280 Speaker 14: rules have allowed a lot of bad habits to get 1300 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 14: into the actual performance of the game. So I just 1301 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,600 Speaker 14: think the product in my opinion is less than what 1302 00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 14: it's been. 1303 00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:32,480 Speaker 2: This one's tough for me because I love Tom Brady 1304 00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:36,720 Speaker 2: the player. I don't ever want to talk negatively about 1305 00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:41,280 Speaker 2: the goat and football, right, but this was a little 1306 00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 2: This was a little weird to me. Okay, it feels 1307 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:48,160 Speaker 2: a little like old man Share is sitting at a 1308 00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 2: Share home complaining about the kids. I really, but I'm 1309 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:56,840 Speaker 2: gonna play good cop bad cop here because I love 1310 00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 2: Tom Brady so much. I need to understand where he 1311 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:03,800 Speaker 2: coming from. So I went down this hole. Okay, let's 1312 01:00:03,840 --> 01:00:07,720 Speaker 2: just kind of figure this out, right, because we're in 1313 01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 2: a quarterback transition period right now, right where a lot 1314 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 2: of the big names retired that we talked about for years, Brady, Breeze, 1315 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:18,040 Speaker 2: both the Manning brothers, Big Ben. 1316 01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:21,560 Speaker 3: These guys had so much. There is such big rivalries. 1317 01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:24,040 Speaker 2: The game was also very different ye when they were 1318 01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:27,520 Speaker 2: playing and we had this next group of top guys Mahomes, Burrow, 1319 01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:32,240 Speaker 2: Josh Allen, who were you know, they are incredible talent 1320 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:35,120 Speaker 2: and they are building up that sense of. 1321 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:36,760 Speaker 3: That rivalry or whatever it could be. 1322 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:40,480 Speaker 2: But I think the biggest difference now is we are 1323 01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 2: putting so much pressure on young rookies immediately to go 1324 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:51,680 Speaker 2: out there and save these franchises that might not be. 1325 01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 3: Saving themselves and where they need. 1326 01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 2: To be because when you look at it, like the 1327 01:00:56,920 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 2: quarterbacks used to sit behind a veteran quarterback for a 1328 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:04,439 Speaker 2: year or two. Right now we have these rookies literally 1329 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:09,440 Speaker 2: getting thrown into horrible franchises and situations in the NFL, 1330 01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:12,520 Speaker 2: which is very different, huge jump from a college game. 1331 01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:17,920 Speaker 2: No matter what you say, it's it takes time. It 1332 01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:23,880 Speaker 2: just it takes time. This one was tough for me. 1333 01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, one was tough for me. 1334 01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 3: I you make I like what you said. I hadn't 1335 01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:30,440 Speaker 3: heard that. 1336 01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:33,960 Speaker 5: I did have this conversation with Dan Byer earlier in 1337 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 5: the week when we were in for Cavino and Rich 1338 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:40,920 Speaker 5: and I agree with Tom and I think you just 1339 01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:43,959 Speaker 5: have to watch the game and see the difference from 1340 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,120 Speaker 5: ten years five years ago. What you're saying might be 1341 01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:49,880 Speaker 5: a real valid factor that I hadn't thought about. But 1342 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:54,560 Speaker 5: the NFL has changed many ways changed, right. I would 1343 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 5: hate to be a defender right now. 1344 01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:59,000 Speaker 3: You can't, you can'tn't. You can't hit anywhere. I can't 1345 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,080 Speaker 3: hit too low. I'm gonna I can't hit too high, 1346 01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 3: I'll get a flag. 1347 01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:04,360 Speaker 5: So I have to hope that I hit the sweet 1348 01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:07,160 Speaker 5: spot and that you don't decide to move last second 1349 01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 5: as I'm But. 1350 01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:10,160 Speaker 3: These rules helped a guy like Tom Brady. 1351 01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:14,560 Speaker 2: These rules protected Tom Brady and probably allowed him to 1352 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:16,040 Speaker 2: play as long as he could have. 1353 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:19,000 Speaker 5: And I don't know if he knew what he was doing, 1354 01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 5: but I mentioned this that I was like, now I 1355 01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:24,080 Speaker 5: see and I like Patrick Mahomes, but now you see 1356 01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes. And I mentioned him because he's Patrick Mahomes 1357 01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:28,000 Speaker 5: and I see him do it the most. 1358 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,760 Speaker 3: He gets hit and he immediately. 1359 01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:33,000 Speaker 5: Looks for the flag, immediately looks at the ref and 1360 01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:36,880 Speaker 5: it's like, where's the flag. It's like the protection for 1361 01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:41,360 Speaker 5: the quarterback is a big reason why they've changed the game. Also, like, well, yeah, 1362 01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:43,640 Speaker 5: adding another game, Like you're telling me you're doing all 1363 01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:46,000 Speaker 5: of these things to protect the players and that there's 1364 01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:47,760 Speaker 5: gonna be less injuries, and that has not been the 1365 01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:51,640 Speaker 5: situation at all. You added another game because of money, 1366 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:54,080 Speaker 5: let's be real. And then at practice they're not really 1367 01:02:54,160 --> 01:02:57,560 Speaker 5: hitting each other anymore, so like everything is counterproductive. You 1368 01:02:57,600 --> 01:02:59,160 Speaker 5: can't tell me that this is making the game better 1369 01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 5: because it's not, and people are still getting hurt. 1370 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,000 Speaker 2: They're trying to save the quarterback because they're the most 1371 01:03:04,040 --> 01:03:08,320 Speaker 2: important player to the team, to the franchise, to the game. 1372 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:12,680 Speaker 2: But again, like the rule he's talking about like helped Tom. 1373 01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 5: Brady of course, of course, and like I get that, 1374 01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:18,760 Speaker 5: but you know it has gone too far in a sense, right, 1375 01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:21,200 Speaker 5: it's not the same game. The scoring has gone down 1376 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 5: in the NFL three or four years in a row, 1377 01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:25,920 Speaker 5: Like it keeps going down, and it's just because they 1378 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:29,880 Speaker 5: keep making these changes and it's making it medio. 1379 01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 3: I get what he says, and I also appreciate. I 1380 01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 3: don't think it's mediocre. 1381 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 5: Dude, if you watch when I watch Raven games against 1382 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:40,600 Speaker 5: the Steelers of like ten years ago, the way. 1383 01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:43,520 Speaker 3: Yeah you were able to that's different. Okay, the game 1384 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:44,160 Speaker 3: has changed. 1385 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:48,080 Speaker 2: It's not as aggressive, Yes, an aggressive game. That can't 1386 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 2: be as aggressive. 1387 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 5: Right, So like if you're if you're used to a game, 1388 01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 5: the game is aggressive no matter what. 1389 01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:56,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, you can't kind of make it unaggressive. 1390 01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:59,480 Speaker 5: It's not working. They're still getting hurt. So why not 1391 01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 5: give even the players I think you asked them. It's 1392 01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:04,360 Speaker 5: not I want to get hard. 1393 01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:06,000 Speaker 2: It's because of all the stuff that's come out with 1394 01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 2: the head injuries, all the science that's coming out. It's 1395 01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:12,560 Speaker 2: it's tough. It had to happen. There wasn't really a choice. 1396 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:14,760 Speaker 2: But it's just like now adjust but you know, figured 1397 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:15,040 Speaker 2: it out. 1398 01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 3: All sports are different. Basketball is not the same, Baseball 1399 01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:23,200 Speaker 3: is not the same. They have all. 1400 01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:28,440 Speaker 5: Got they're they're making a better product in different ways. 1401 01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:29,840 Speaker 3: They're all doing that. 1402 01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:32,680 Speaker 2: You have to, Yeah, but sometimes it's get up with 1403 01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:33,240 Speaker 2: the times. 1404 01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:34,320 Speaker 3: Man, it's mediocre. 1405 01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:39,800 Speaker 2: It's not media. What's trending, Brian is a mediocre. 1406 01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:42,240 Speaker 8: I'm just trying not to do a mediocre update here, 1407 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 8: you know, I mean, and that's all I can say. 1408 01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:47,040 Speaker 8: Never never. 1409 01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:48,600 Speaker 1: But you know what. 1410 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 8: Isn't mediocre is the bevy of college football that we 1411 01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:59,040 Speaker 8: have to sink our teeth into.

How are we doing? 1475 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:18,360 Speaker 4: I'm here, I'm I love it. Hi, guys, Hi travel. 1476 01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 4: I was just telling Brandon that travel was surprisingly easy 1477 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,160 Speaker 4: given that I was in like three different cities in 1478 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 4: this span of twelve forty eight hours I think over 1479 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:29,200 Speaker 4: Thanksgiving week. 1480 01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 9: So nice. 1481 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:33,800 Speaker 2: I love it, Okay, Carmen, Lions were huge favorites over 1482 01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:36,040 Speaker 2: the Packers. Honestly, the score made it seem a lot 1483 01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:39,519 Speaker 2: closer than it was what happened to Detroit. 1484 01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:44,280 Speaker 4: Well, I don't think you can glean anything crazy too 1485 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 4: crazy about the Detroit Lions from one game, but they 1486 01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:51,080 Speaker 4: are losing. The game that they lost is all for 1487 01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:54,640 Speaker 4: the same reason. When Jared Goff is not protected, he 1488 01:08:54,760 --> 01:08:57,920 Speaker 4: is a different quarterback, and they have multiple injuries along 1489 01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:02,880 Speaker 4: their offensive line. Pilati by tie is that went out earlier. 1490 01:09:02,960 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 4: He'd been in and out of the lineup. He missed 1491 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:07,080 Speaker 4: all of last season with an injury, and then they 1492 01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:09,240 Speaker 4: also had Jonah Jackson at the last two games, and 1493 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:14,000 Speaker 4: that really felt the difference for a defensive front on 1494 01:09:14,040 --> 01:09:16,280 Speaker 4: the on the Packers that all of a sudden decided that, 1495 01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:19,200 Speaker 4: oh hey we had Rashaun Gary. They realized that, and 1496 01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 4: rashauon Gary had multiple sacs h and fumble recovery in fact. 1497 01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:28,400 Speaker 4: So I I think that that was the biggest indicator 1498 01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:30,760 Speaker 4: of success of the Lions is if they're a Lion, 1499 01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:33,679 Speaker 4: if their offensive line is healthy. I have concerns about 1500 01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:36,480 Speaker 4: their past defense as well, especially going into the postseason, 1501 01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 4: but I think they'll still make it. 1502 01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,519 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what alex I said to Alex I was like, 1503 01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:43,360 Speaker 5: do we kind of look at this game and. 1504 01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:46,439 Speaker 3: Judge it for the rest of the season with the Lions. 1505 01:09:46,439 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 5: But you're saying looking at it just as a one 1506 01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 5: off game, you're not worried. 1507 01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,760 Speaker 4: I'm not. I'm not worried for postseason hopes. But like 1508 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:57,200 Speaker 4: I said, there's there's some things that I think teams 1509 01:09:57,240 --> 01:09:59,360 Speaker 4: have figured out about the Lions. Namely, if you can 1510 01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:01,600 Speaker 4: win the line of scrimmage against them, they're going to 1511 01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 4: be a lot better off. But that's pretty much any team. 1512 01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:06,800 Speaker 4: I just I have concerns once the Lions get to 1513 01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:08,920 Speaker 4: the postseason, but until then, this is just one. 1514 01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 2: Game, all right, Well, let's get to the good. Jordan 1515 01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:15,600 Speaker 2: Love had the game of his career. What impressed you 1516 01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:17,639 Speaker 2: most about what he did on the biggest stage. 1517 01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:22,120 Speaker 4: I think it's the consistency with which Jordan Love is 1518 01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:26,040 Speaker 4: improving because the stage has been set over the last 1519 01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:28,680 Speaker 4: couple of games. They haven't been nationally televised games, and 1520 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:30,640 Speaker 4: now a lot of people got to see that. But 1521 01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:35,040 Speaker 4: as Jordan Love is ascending, he's ascending because his young 1522 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:38,720 Speaker 4: receivers are also gaining experience and they're learning him, and 1523 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:40,920 Speaker 4: they're learning the timing of routes and they have it 1524 01:10:40,960 --> 01:10:43,439 Speaker 4: all down now and they've seen different things. They know 1525 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 4: how defenses are going to attack them a little bit more. 1526 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:46,960 Speaker 10: So. 1527 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 4: This is a team that just needed to grow up 1528 01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:52,160 Speaker 4: together and that's what they're doing. It just doesn't happen 1529 01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:54,800 Speaker 4: within a couple of games. This is a long term 1530 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 4: kind of process and now it's materializing. And you see 1531 01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 4: Matt Lafoura have more trust in his offense as well, 1532 01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:05,240 Speaker 4: and he's calling he's calling better games. He's opening the 1533 01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:08,120 Speaker 4: playbook up a little bit more because not only can 1534 01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:10,840 Speaker 4: Jordan Love trust his receivers, now so can Matt with 1535 01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:13,759 Speaker 4: floor and everything is just kind of starting to click 1536 01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:17,000 Speaker 4: a little bit as these guys get more experienced. That's 1537 01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:17,760 Speaker 4: that's all it was. 1538 01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, Brian Gutta Kunst around like week seven, I was 1539 01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:23,559 Speaker 5: telling Alex like the Packers did not want to commit 1540 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:27,000 Speaker 5: to saying that Jordan Love was their franchise quarterback. 1541 01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:28,040 Speaker 3: They also didn't want to say. 1542 01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:30,840 Speaker 5: He Wasn't you think do you think now he's like, Okay, 1543 01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:32,960 Speaker 5: we're good, yep, we can we can call him mark 1544 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:33,839 Speaker 5: franchise quarterback. 1545 01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:37,479 Speaker 4: I think I think how what you've seen out of 1546 01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:41,519 Speaker 4: Jordan Love, how quickly he's able to internalize the game plans. 1547 01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:44,759 Speaker 4: How quickly he's able to kind of diagnose defenses even 1548 01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:48,880 Speaker 4: and figure out and and be in command of the offense, 1549 01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:52,479 Speaker 4: not just running it. Matt with Floor talked about actually 1550 01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:54,639 Speaker 4: the very first player of the game that fifty three 1551 01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:58,800 Speaker 4: yard bombed to Christian Watson. That was something that they 1552 01:11:58,840 --> 01:12:00,760 Speaker 4: decided on on Wednesday, that was going to be the 1553 01:12:00,760 --> 01:12:02,360 Speaker 4: first play of the game ten. The first ten to 1554 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:07,559 Speaker 4: fifteen plays of any game are usually scripted, and Thursday morning, 1555 01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:10,720 Speaker 4: Matt Lflor texts Jordan Love and says, you know, I'm 1556 01:12:10,760 --> 01:12:13,640 Speaker 4: a little worried about the protection and where like our 1557 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 4: hot rads are in this and I don't think you 1558 01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:17,040 Speaker 4: have it. I don't know, we have to check down 1559 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:19,880 Speaker 4: in this play. I think we should change it. And 1560 01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:22,720 Speaker 4: Jordan Love goes, no, we're not changing it. I like it. 1561 01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:25,920 Speaker 4: I want it, And he went and delivered, and Mattlefloor 1562 01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:28,760 Speaker 4: trusted him to do that, and it was it was 1563 01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:33,320 Speaker 4: it all paid off. And I just think that now 1564 01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:36,559 Speaker 4: that you can kind of see that he's he's not 1565 01:12:36,600 --> 01:12:39,680 Speaker 4: only is he clicking mentally or physically, I have to say, 1566 01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:42,479 Speaker 4: but he's also clicking kind of mentally in and you 1567 01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:44,880 Speaker 4: can see that there's still growth that needs to be had. 1568 01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:47,400 Speaker 4: But yeah, I don't know that. You can't you can't 1569 01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:49,200 Speaker 4: say he's going to be your quarterback of the future 1570 01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:51,600 Speaker 4: at this point. I know Packers fans certainly. 1571 01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:54,639 Speaker 2: Think so, all right, let's stay in the NFC North here. 1572 01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:58,200 Speaker 2: Vikings made an incredible pick up with Joshua Dobbs. He's 1573 01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:02,440 Speaker 2: been able to really just keep them in the playoff conversation. 1574 01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:06,160 Speaker 3: How has he changed the energy in that locker room? 1575 01:13:07,680 --> 01:13:11,519 Speaker 4: He's so incredibly I kind of liken him to like 1576 01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 4: a coach's kid, because you've been in so many different places, 1577 01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:16,920 Speaker 4: and the coaches kids that I know are just so 1578 01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:20,519 Speaker 4: adaptable and they can just make friends with anyone, and 1579 01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:23,639 Speaker 4: they come in instantly and they just have just wonderful 1580 01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:25,800 Speaker 4: relationships guills, and I think that that's kind of what 1581 01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:29,519 Speaker 4: Ja dabsas because he's been in so many different places 1582 01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:32,559 Speaker 4: and he just wins over the locker room immediately. I 1583 01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:34,880 Speaker 4: mean that first game that he came in, he wasn't 1584 01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:37,479 Speaker 4: supposed to play. Jaron Hall, the rookie started and suffered 1585 01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:40,400 Speaker 4: a concussion early in the game, so josh Dobbs didn't 1586 01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:42,439 Speaker 4: know the names of the guys that he was throwing 1587 01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:45,519 Speaker 4: the balls to at that point, but it was very 1588 01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:49,000 Speaker 4: It's like you saw the guys rallying around him late 1589 01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 4: in that game on the sideline, and that's just continued 1590 01:13:52,360 --> 01:13:55,479 Speaker 4: to be the case even through some of these ups 1591 01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:58,479 Speaker 4: and downs that you're now seeing. But more than Joshua 1592 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:00,680 Speaker 4: Dobbs too, I really want to give a ton of 1593 01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:04,800 Speaker 4: credit to Kevin O'Connell because this doesn't happen if you 1594 01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:07,400 Speaker 4: don't have a former quarterback as your head coach who 1595 01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:12,120 Speaker 4: really understand and can basically play Real Lives Madden with 1596 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:15,559 Speaker 4: human beings while his quarterback gets up speed. Because that's 1597 01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:17,160 Speaker 4: what he was doing early on. 1598 01:14:17,360 --> 01:14:20,599 Speaker 5: Yeah, having to literally tell him right like, walk him 1599 01:14:20,600 --> 01:14:22,920 Speaker 5: through it up until they cut his mic is what 1600 01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:23,679 Speaker 5: he was doing. 1601 01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:27,160 Speaker 4: Who he needs to look out? Ye are like, okay, 1602 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:28,840 Speaker 4: then you're gonna throw it the number so and so 1603 01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:32,280 Speaker 4: because he doesn't know anybody's name, I mean, and then 1604 01:14:32,320 --> 01:14:34,120 Speaker 4: he has to call a game on top of that, 1605 01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:36,439 Speaker 4: and then deal with game management, clock management and all 1606 01:14:36,479 --> 01:14:38,360 Speaker 4: that kind of stuff. I can't say enough about the 1607 01:14:38,479 --> 01:14:41,559 Speaker 4: job that Kevin O'Connell has done in this interim. When 1608 01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:43,760 Speaker 4: you know cash or be hit with her cousins going 1609 01:14:43,760 --> 01:14:44,559 Speaker 4: down with that injury. 1610 01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:47,519 Speaker 3: So we're down to the final what like six games ish? 1611 01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:49,640 Speaker 5: I think we're at six or seven games, and the 1612 01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:52,559 Speaker 5: Lines and the Vikings will face each other twice, so 1613 01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:53,920 Speaker 5: big games coming up. 1614 01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:58,479 Speaker 3: Your good you think the Lions win the division? Right now? 1615 01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:01,000 Speaker 3: You still think that. I all can change, you know, 1616 01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:02,759 Speaker 3: but right now, what is your good scene? 1617 01:15:03,720 --> 01:15:05,760 Speaker 4: I still think the Lions can win the division because 1618 01:15:05,760 --> 01:15:07,960 Speaker 4: they do have a pretty easy schedule from here on out, 1619 01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,680 Speaker 4: despite the fact, I mean, the Vikings are not going 1620 01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:12,519 Speaker 4: to be a tough out, don't get me wrong, especially 1621 01:15:12,600 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 4: with that defense and how much pleasure Brian Flores brings. 1622 01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:19,879 Speaker 4: And you've seen that system kind of take hold throughout 1623 01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:22,599 Speaker 4: this season, where you know, he came in brand new 1624 01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:26,920 Speaker 4: defensive coordinator, drastically different scheme than what was there in 1625 01:15:26,960 --> 01:15:30,280 Speaker 4: Minnesota before, and now you're just seeing these guys, I 1626 01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:32,720 Speaker 4: mean blitz after blitz. They had the highest blitz rate 1627 01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:34,840 Speaker 4: in the league by far, I think, like double division 1628 01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:38,960 Speaker 4: percentage points at this point.
