0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:53.840
<v Speaker 2>It is the divisional Round preview episode my single favorite

0:00:54.360 --> 0:00:59.600
<v Speaker 2>sports weekend of the year. It also doubles Demons as

0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:06.480
<v Speaker 2>you're on Nicole's birthday weekend so very often this weekend,

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:11.880
<v Speaker 2>my single favorite sports weekend is a weekend your mom

0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:15.959
<v Speaker 2>is out of town that is happening this weekend as well,

0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:20.559
<v Speaker 2>which means it triples as a weekend where your baby

0:01:20.680 --> 0:01:24.320
<v Speaker 2>sister is just totally unsupervised for about thirty six hours.

0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 2>Like I mean, I she her iPad might overheat by

0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:34.480
<v Speaker 2>how much she's gonna be on roadblocks and FaceTime with

0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:38.440
<v Speaker 2>her friends just up in her room. She's basically gonna

0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:41.600
<v Speaker 2>be like a latchkey kid this weekend. But there's what

0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 2>do you want me to do? Hey, we get we

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:46.040
<v Speaker 2>gotta play it. We got the four best football games

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:48.520
<v Speaker 2>of the year coming up. Your mom's gonna be on

0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:52.280
<v Speaker 2>a beach somewhere needing a passport, and I there's nothing

0:01:52.280 --> 0:01:54.640
<v Speaker 2>I can do. So, I mean, it just is what

0:01:54.720 --> 0:02:00.840
<v Speaker 2>it is. I cannot wait, and let's get right to it.

0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:04.480
<v Speaker 2>Here is what missed the cut for today's show. A

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 2>Quinn Yours has declared for the NFL Draft that is

0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:12.080
<v Speaker 2>not on the this week's show. A Trevor wants a

0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:15.079
<v Speaker 2>young offensive coach that's on the show, and Nick Sirianni

0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:21.280
<v Speaker 2>allegedly has no issue with aj Brown reading I do

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:24.760
<v Speaker 2>not believe him. That is not on the show either.

0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:29.080
<v Speaker 2>I just think they are just like, man whatever, like

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:32.839
<v Speaker 2>you're just gonna do your thing. I suppose so all

0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:40.120
<v Speaker 2>of that missed the cut today. He uh sure, Yeah, sure,

0:02:40.760 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 2>he's just trying to keep it rolling. I would say

0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:48.600
<v Speaker 2>better coaching would be having enough firm control of your

0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:52.120
<v Speaker 2>team that your star player doesn't weak in week out,

0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:56.560
<v Speaker 2>even when you're winning, cause a media malstrom around him

0:02:56.600 --> 0:03:00.920
<v Speaker 2>being disgruntled. But you know, to each their own. All right,

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:03.120
<v Speaker 2>let's get to the game of the weekend, Game of

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.959
<v Speaker 2>the year. Baltimore Baltimore Buffalo.

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Baltimore Baltimore Buffalo set to face off this weekend

0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:11.920
<v Speaker 3>in a game that they're saying that probably the winner

0:03:11.919 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 3>will take the Super Bowl. Do you think that the

0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:18.120
<v Speaker 3>quarterbacks are overshadowing this game or is there something or

0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:20.560
<v Speaker 3>is there more to it that we're overseeing or overlooking?

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:27.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean, I the story obviously is gonna be

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Lamar and Josh, and it should be. They're gonna finish

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:33.480
<v Speaker 2>one two or two to one. In MVP, they were

0:03:33.480 --> 0:03:37.119
<v Speaker 2>first team and second team All Pro. They have been

0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:45.240
<v Speaker 2>the non chief story of the year. Here is what

0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 2>I find really interesting and also a little vexing or

0:03:54.360 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 2>frustrating about some of the Lamar MVP arguments, which I understand.

0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:05.920
<v Speaker 2>But the key to this game is probably Derick Henry,

0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:12.920
<v Speaker 2>and I think most Ravens fans and Ravens betters want

0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:18.240
<v Speaker 2>this to be a game that Derick Henry is the

0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:24.880
<v Speaker 2>star actor of rather than Lamar Jackson. Now Lamar was exceptional.

0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 2>In round one and round one they were both awesome.

0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:31.480
<v Speaker 2>But in this game, when you look at in particular

0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:40.680
<v Speaker 2>the edges that Baltimore has, it's their giant, powerful offensive

0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:48.160
<v Speaker 2>line up against a somewhat undersized Bill's defense. Additionally, when

0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:50.919
<v Speaker 2>you don't have to say flowers and listen, he hasn't

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 2>been ruled out, but he didn't practice yesterday, it is

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:59.320
<v Speaker 2>going to have to be a Dereck Henry game. And

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:04.520
<v Speaker 2>I think that what makes you nervous if you're a

0:05:04.640 --> 0:05:12.919
<v Speaker 2>Ravens fan is we have seen a tendency in the past,

0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:20.640
<v Speaker 2>particularly if Lamar is up against another elite quarterback, that

0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:27.200
<v Speaker 2>they seem to call a game plan that says, Lamar,

0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:30.760
<v Speaker 2>go throw for throw with this guy, and that's not

0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:33.280
<v Speaker 2>their best way to win. Their best way to win

0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:38.200
<v Speaker 2>is the way they played last week, where they utilize

0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:42.200
<v Speaker 2>the fact that Lamar is as devastating a rushing threat

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:46.039
<v Speaker 2>as any quarterback in NFL history. You then add you

0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:48.760
<v Speaker 2>have a first ballot Hall of Fame running back, and

0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:54.520
<v Speaker 2>then you can take advantage of downfield passing because the

0:05:54.600 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 2>other team is so concerned about what you can do

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:02.159
<v Speaker 2>in the running game. That's their best path. The way

0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:05.400
<v Speaker 2>they played the Chiefs in the AFC title game, the

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:08.560
<v Speaker 2>way they played the Chiefs in Week one of the

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:13.880
<v Speaker 2>season was no, we're gonna have Lamar be a pure

0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 2>pocket passer, and when they do that, that offense is

0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:23.760
<v Speaker 2>not as terrifying. I understand that Lamar's passing numbers are elite.

0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:27.680
<v Speaker 2>I absolutely get that. I also understand the games are

0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:34.080
<v Speaker 2>televised and he as he is as brilliant as any

0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:39.200
<v Speaker 2>player in league history at melding the threat to run

0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 2>while also staying a willing passer and taking advantage of

0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:47.480
<v Speaker 2>the fact that the defense has caught in between two

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 2>bad options. But we also know that win and that's

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 2>why I thought that third and thirteen touchdown on the

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:59.560
<v Speaker 2>opening drive against Pittsburgh was such a big play for him.

0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:05.440
<v Speaker 2>He has not historically been as effective in spots where

0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:08.800
<v Speaker 2>there's not the threat to run at all, the defense

0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 2>can purely play the pass. That's when the Ravens offense

0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:18.680
<v Speaker 2>has been stymied. Now it wasn't that in the few spots,

0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 2>the few third and longs he had against Pittsburgh, he

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:28.680
<v Speaker 2>came through repeatedly, and so that Derrick Henry is the

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:36.520
<v Speaker 2>key kind of focal point when the Ravens have the

0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:42.480
<v Speaker 2>ball and when the Bills have the ball, it's actually,

0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:47.160
<v Speaker 2>oddly I don't want to say similar, but it's also

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:51.120
<v Speaker 2>about the running game, except for the Bills, it's more

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:54.720
<v Speaker 2>about Josh Allen's running, which is, the Bills are not

0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:59.880
<v Speaker 2>going to be able to create enough plays, big plays

0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:06.320
<v Speaker 2>through the air or James Cook in order to beat

0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens unless the Ravens offense just falls apart. The

0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:15.880
<v Speaker 2>only way they can create enough big plays is if

0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:21.800
<v Speaker 2>Josh Allen has at least three, if not four, devastating

0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:26.280
<v Speaker 2>scrambles where it's third and medium or third and long,

0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:31.960
<v Speaker 2>it is a pure passing situation and Josh Allen surveys

0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:35.640
<v Speaker 2>the field it's not there, and then goes and does

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:40.280
<v Speaker 2>Josh Allen things with his legs. Because the Bills do

0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:46.720
<v Speaker 2>not have the talent on the receiving corps to exploit

0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens secondary, which has been really good the second

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.560
<v Speaker 2>half of the season. What the Ravens, what the Bills

0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:58.959
<v Speaker 2>do have is the best offensive line in the AFC.

0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:02.520
<v Speaker 2>In fact, the two offensive lines in the AFC might

0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:08.880
<v Speaker 2>be playing in this game, and so this should be

0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:13.880
<v Speaker 2>an all time game. I think the Zay Flowers injury

0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:18.800
<v Speaker 2>really matters because when the Bills defense has looked vulnerable,

0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:24.319
<v Speaker 2>it's been because that back end can't hold up. I

0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:29.960
<v Speaker 2>also think that, and I love this part about playoff football.

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:34.640
<v Speaker 2>I know other people don't. I think the weather is

0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:40.520
<v Speaker 2>a huge factor here. It is supposed to be a

0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:44.800
<v Speaker 2>real feel. It's supposed to be eight degrees with a

0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:51.480
<v Speaker 2>real feel of negative three. Now, the other really unique

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:55.400
<v Speaker 2>thing about this demanse is not that Lamar's you know

0:09:56.040 --> 0:10:00.560
<v Speaker 2>well documented does not like the cold Florida kid, but

0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:11.040
<v Speaker 2>also that I the Ravens this week have been practicing

0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:23.000
<v Speaker 2>indoors because their field, I guess, is frozen, and I

0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:25.960
<v Speaker 2>want to get you, so I'm gonna read you directly

0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:30.400
<v Speaker 2>from Baltimore Ravens dot com. Though the Ravens are in

0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:33.080
<v Speaker 2>store for an ice box at high Mark Stadium, they

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:36.520
<v Speaker 2>did not practice outdoor with outdoors Wednesday for a very

0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:40.200
<v Speaker 2>simple reason. The ground is frozen. We got it as

0:10:40.240 --> 0:10:43.480
<v Speaker 2>cold as we can in here right now. It will

0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.400
<v Speaker 2>be even colder tomorrow when I get all the water

0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:49.480
<v Speaker 2>shut off in here so the pipes don't freeze, Harball said,

0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:52.800
<v Speaker 2>so we'll have it cold. Would love to be outside

0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:57.000
<v Speaker 2>but we just can't. The fields are too hard and

0:10:57.160 --> 0:11:00.400
<v Speaker 2>they're frozen. I don't love that.

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:04.760
<v Speaker 3>Man at the game.

0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 2>I mean, no, no, no, no, no, I understand the rationale.

0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:18.840
<v Speaker 2>What I'm saying is it's bad fortune that I guess

0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:22.760
<v Speaker 2>their practice fields aren't heated from the bottom like you

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.320
<v Speaker 2>can do in certain facilities. Maybe you can't really do

0:11:25.400 --> 0:11:29.400
<v Speaker 2>that outdoors. I don't I'm not listen. I'm not a landscaper,

0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:38.000
<v Speaker 2>but you are not preparing as well as you could

0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:43.600
<v Speaker 2>for the elements by practicing indoors. Flatly, You're just not

0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:46.280
<v Speaker 2>And the idea that like, oh we're gonna get it

0:11:46.440 --> 0:11:49.600
<v Speaker 2>really cold in here, not as cold as it is

0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:55.040
<v Speaker 2>outside of right now. And however cold it is right

0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:59.559
<v Speaker 2>now in Baltimore, it is much colder in western New York.

0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:05.240
<v Speaker 2>So that's now people can say that that's gonna make

0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:09.199
<v Speaker 2>it harder to tackle Derrick Henry, and it might like

0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 2>that is that is a thing that could happen where

0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:17.320
<v Speaker 2>people don't want to tackle Derrick Henry. Derrick Henry has

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:22.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, he hasn't played in one of these spots

0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:26.200
<v Speaker 2>prior to the Pittsburgh game in quite some time. His

0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:31.680
<v Speaker 2>last three playoff games before the Pittsburgh game. We're all

0:12:31.720 --> 0:12:36.040
<v Speaker 2>bad by his standards. Now, that was teams where every

0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:39.680
<v Speaker 2>single person on the opposing defense, like we stopped Derrick Henry.

0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:44.600
<v Speaker 2>We win. But he went twenty for sixty two against

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:49.880
<v Speaker 2>the Bengals, he went eighteen for forty against Baltimore, and

0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:54.560
<v Speaker 2>he went nineteen for sixty nine against the Chiefs in

0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:58.400
<v Speaker 2>the AFC Championship game. What's unique about that three game

0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:03.880
<v Speaker 2>stretch is his playoff career prior to that was thirty

0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:07.560
<v Speaker 2>for one to ninety five against Baltimore, thirty four for

0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:11.680
<v Speaker 2>one point eighty two against the Patriots, twelve for twenty

0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:15.760
<v Speaker 2>eight against the Patriots in a loss, and twenty three

0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:19.520
<v Speaker 2>for one point fifty six against the Chiefs in a win. So,

0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Derek listen, Derek Henry for his playoff career has eight games,

0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:28.680
<v Speaker 2>three of which four of which, pardon me, are A

0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:33.160
<v Speaker 2>plus games, and four of which were bad games. It's

0:13:33.200 --> 0:13:37.160
<v Speaker 2>really he's never had like an average playoff game. He

0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:41.760
<v Speaker 2>has gone for either more than one hundred and fifty

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:46.240
<v Speaker 2>yards or less than seventy yards in all eight of

0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:51.680
<v Speaker 2>his games. It's a really unique game. Like so when

0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:54.400
<v Speaker 2>you look at it, you're like, oh, he's played in

0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:57.880
<v Speaker 2>eight playoff games, has nine hundred rushing yards. He gets

0:13:57.880 --> 0:14:00.160
<v Speaker 2>you about one hundred yards a game, but that that's

0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:06.240
<v Speaker 2>not true going from in kind of ascending order his

0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:11.199
<v Speaker 2>rushing yards per playoff game or twenty eight forty sixty two,

0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:15.480
<v Speaker 2>sixty nine and then one fifty six, one eighty two,

0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:20.240
<v Speaker 2>one eighty six, one ninety five. So it really is like,

0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:24.360
<v Speaker 2>you're not again. The past is not necessarily an indication

0:14:24.400 --> 0:14:26.800
<v Speaker 2>of the future, but based on the past, you don't

0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:31.760
<v Speaker 2>get B plus Derrick Henry playoff games. You get C

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:36.120
<v Speaker 2>minus or worse or holy that guy was dominant and

0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:40.720
<v Speaker 2>by the way his team now again it is not.

0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:43.800
<v Speaker 2>He was on a Titans team with Ryan Tannell as

0:14:43.840 --> 0:14:46.760
<v Speaker 2>the quarterback, so that is not the situation here. But

0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:50.240
<v Speaker 2>the four games he didn't hit seventy yards zero to

0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:53.040
<v Speaker 2>four and the four games he had at least one

0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:57.920
<v Speaker 2>fifty four and oh like now those are that's not

0:14:58.040 --> 0:15:03.480
<v Speaker 2>surprising to anyone. And this Ravens team is far better

0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:07.320
<v Speaker 2>built than any of those Titans teams to be able

0:15:07.360 --> 0:15:09.840
<v Speaker 2>to win even if he doesn't have a monster game

0:15:10.160 --> 0:15:13.320
<v Speaker 2>because they have Lamark quarterback, not Derrick Henry. But that

0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:17.440
<v Speaker 2>is something I'm sorry, not Ryan Tannehill. That is something

0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:21.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm super excited to watch, and we'll get to the

0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:25.720
<v Speaker 2>pick part of it later. But the Bills being a

0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:30.240
<v Speaker 2>home dog is noteworthy. They weren't a home dog against

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:34.080
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs last year. They haven't been a home dog

0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:39.000
<v Speaker 2>in the playoffs since anyone have the year I'll tell

0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:44.000
<v Speaker 2>you nineteen sixty seven, and they haven't been a home

0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:48.440
<v Speaker 2>dog in the regular season in their last forty some games.

0:15:50.200 --> 0:15:55.720
<v Speaker 2>So it's surprising to me that Buffalo is a home dog. Now.

0:15:56.480 --> 0:16:02.640
<v Speaker 2>We shouldn't disregard. We can't talk this game without acknowledging

0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:06.760
<v Speaker 2>the fact these two teams did play earlier this year

0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:10.760
<v Speaker 2>and it was not a classic. It was a route

0:16:11.840 --> 0:16:16.760
<v Speaker 2>thirty five to ten, Buffalo up, I'm sorry, Baltimore up

0:16:16.840 --> 0:16:21.880
<v Speaker 2>twenty one to three at the half was Baltimore Derrick

0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:26.560
<v Speaker 2>Henry ran twenty four times for a buck ninety nine.

0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:30.040
<v Speaker 2>Lamar only had to pass the ball eighteen times. Run

0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.320
<v Speaker 2>of those eighteen pass attempts through for one sixty couple

0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:38.600
<v Speaker 2>touchdowns a one thirty five rating. Baltimore ran for two

0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:42.640
<v Speaker 2>hundred and seventy yards and Josh Allen didn't do anything

0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Josh Allen ran the ball five times for twenty one yards,

0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:49.760
<v Speaker 2>threw at sixteen to twenty nine for a buck eighty,

0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:53.280
<v Speaker 2>no touchdowns, no picks at seventy four rating. So they did.

0:16:53.440 --> 0:16:57.560
<v Speaker 2>Now that was back in September. But they played and

0:16:57.600 --> 0:17:03.720
<v Speaker 2>it was a true role and so that is And

0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:06.479
<v Speaker 2>by the way, it wasn't a game. Let me make

0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:10.600
<v Speaker 2>sure I'm right about this. I don't think the turnover battle. No,

0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:14.159
<v Speaker 2>the turnovers were one to one, so you got a

0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:17.159
<v Speaker 2>true route in the game when turnovers didn't really play

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:22.159
<v Speaker 2>a factor. So that's a big check mark in Baltimore's favor.

0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:26.080
<v Speaker 2>They doubled them up in yards and they just Derrick

0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:29.359
<v Speaker 2>Henry had his way with them. So we'll see. I

0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:32.720
<v Speaker 2>said it before, I'll say it again.

0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:36.359
<v Speaker 3>They already played. Oh go ahead, I mean because McDermott

0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:38.359
<v Speaker 3>had said that this is what everybody's been waiting for,

0:17:38.720 --> 0:17:42.440
<v Speaker 3>Lamar going up against Buffalo. Would you consider that a

0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:45.840
<v Speaker 3>bulletin board material or is it what everybody's been waiting for?

0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:46.399
<v Speaker 4>Oh?

0:17:46.440 --> 0:17:49.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean no, I mean it is Lamar versus

0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Josh because of the MVP stuff is what people have

0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:56.400
<v Speaker 2>been waiting for all year. And I'll listen, all go

0:17:56.840 --> 0:18:00.439
<v Speaker 2>a step further than Sean McDermott. I hope this is

0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:04.000
<v Speaker 2>the greatest game in NFL history. I hope this is

0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:07.880
<v Speaker 2>our first ever triple overtime playoff game. I hope people

0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:11.600
<v Speaker 2>are telling their kids about what an absolute war this

0:18:11.680 --> 0:18:15.560
<v Speaker 2>football game was. I hope it goes deep into Sunday

0:18:15.680 --> 0:18:21.120
<v Speaker 2>night and whomever wins comes out limping and battered and

0:18:21.240 --> 0:18:24.760
<v Speaker 2>bruised to get ready to come to Arrowhead the following week.

0:18:25.840 --> 0:18:31.320
<v Speaker 2>I will I will give my pick during our gambling

0:18:31.400 --> 0:18:34.440
<v Speaker 2>portion of the segment in a few minutes. But let's

0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:35.600
<v Speaker 2>move on to the next game.

0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:38.920
<v Speaker 3>Yes, the Chiefs, the starters are playing for the first

0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:42.000
<v Speaker 3>time since Christmas. We thought that the winner of that

0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:44.240
<v Speaker 3>Chargers Houston game was just going to be a blowover

0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:47.240
<v Speaker 3>for the Chiefs. But with how Houston handled that game,

0:18:47.320 --> 0:18:49.240
<v Speaker 3>did you do you see them being a potential problem

0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:52.040
<v Speaker 3>for the Chiefs in the next round.

0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:52.640
<v Speaker 1>No.

0:18:55.400 --> 0:18:59.560
<v Speaker 2>I think this is kind of the best case scenario

0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:04.680
<v Speaker 2>for the Chiefs because while I don't think the Chargers

0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:08.560
<v Speaker 2>would have been a problem either, the familiarity of it

0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:15.240
<v Speaker 2>there is that, and the Chargers played the Chiefs much

0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:21.879
<v Speaker 2>tougher in their two matchups than the Texans did. And listen,

0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:29.600
<v Speaker 2>the Texans salvaged what had been a somewhat disappointing season

0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:33.880
<v Speaker 2>with that win last weekend. And the thing about that

0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:39.560
<v Speaker 2>win last weekend is offensively, I did not think Houston

0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:44.880
<v Speaker 2>played that well. I thought that Houston was like if

0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:49.800
<v Speaker 2>Herbert had played anywhere close to what his standards supposed

0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:54.439
<v Speaker 2>to be, that game should have been seventeen to nothing

0:19:55.440 --> 0:19:58.840
<v Speaker 2>early second quarter and the Texans should have just been

0:19:58.880 --> 0:20:04.520
<v Speaker 2>dead in the water. Instead, the Chargers let the Texan

0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:09.720
<v Speaker 2>stick around six nothing for an hour, and then finally

0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Houston made a couple plays. Then Herbert throws the pick six,

0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:15.440
<v Speaker 2>and all of a sudden, the game is flipped entirely.

0:20:16.119 --> 0:20:22.360
<v Speaker 2>I this Chiefs team you're about to see on Sunday

0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:32.360
<v Speaker 2>Saturday is the first time all year long they're anywhere

0:20:32.520 --> 0:20:37.480
<v Speaker 2>close to hole. Okay, so here's how it's gone for

0:20:37.560 --> 0:20:44.520
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs this year. Before the season even starts. But uh,

0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:50.040
<v Speaker 2>Hollywood Brown breaks his collar bone. He's out less than

0:20:50.040 --> 0:20:54.240
<v Speaker 2>a month. Then Rashi Rice goes down. Now take him

0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:57.280
<v Speaker 2>out of the picture entirely because he's not coming back.

0:20:58.920 --> 0:21:03.760
<v Speaker 2>Pa Checko makes his ankle or something out of his legs, ankle,

0:21:03.800 --> 0:21:08.600
<v Speaker 2>whatever it was, he's out. Charles Amene, who their big

0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:11.840
<v Speaker 2>free agent acquisition from a year ago, had torn his

0:21:11.920 --> 0:21:17.200
<v Speaker 2>ACL in the AFC Championship game last season. He doesn't

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:21.720
<v Speaker 2>play the first three months of the year. Then Jalen Watson,

0:21:23.440 --> 0:21:28.119
<v Speaker 2>the second best corner on this team, breaks his ankle.

0:21:28.160 --> 0:21:32.280
<v Speaker 2>At the midway point of the season, they are shuffling

0:21:32.359 --> 0:21:35.440
<v Speaker 2>in left tackle after left tackle, trying to figure it out.

0:21:35.680 --> 0:21:40.600
<v Speaker 2>Bringing DJ Humphries in his first game. He pulls his

0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:46.440
<v Speaker 2>hamstring and now, oh yeah, and by the way, Travis

0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Kelce was, you know, on a bit of a pitch

0:21:50.400 --> 0:21:53.840
<v Speaker 2>count all year and really trying to amp up for

0:21:53.920 --> 0:22:00.520
<v Speaker 2>this moment. And now they enter the postseason with DJ

0:22:00.680 --> 0:22:06.680
<v Speaker 2>Humphreys back and healthy, with Hollywood Brown back and healthy,

0:22:07.560 --> 0:22:13.480
<v Speaker 2>with Isaiah Pacheco back and healthy, with Charles Aminehu back

0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:20.199
<v Speaker 2>and healthy with I left something out there, the oh,

0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:25.960
<v Speaker 2>Jalen Watson back exactly right, thank you, practicing in full

0:22:27.560 --> 0:22:30.879
<v Speaker 2>and Mahomes. In the two games with Hollywood Brown, the

0:22:30.960 --> 0:22:33.600
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs averaged twenty eight points a game. Mahomes had a

0:22:33.640 --> 0:22:36.919
<v Speaker 2>one to ten Basser rating, six touchdowns and no picks.

0:22:37.760 --> 0:22:42.120
<v Speaker 2>You saw a glimpse of what the Chiefs were gonna

0:22:42.119 --> 0:22:44.560
<v Speaker 2>look like come the playoffs. In that three games in

0:22:44.600 --> 0:22:48.320
<v Speaker 2>eleven days, win these three games, get the one seed.

0:22:48.560 --> 0:22:51.080
<v Speaker 2>And it was the best three games they played all year.

0:22:52.480 --> 0:22:56.879
<v Speaker 2>And now you're going to see a rested, hungry, ready

0:22:56.960 --> 0:23:02.040
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs team. I'm the they might throw it back in

0:23:02.760 --> 0:23:07.920
<v Speaker 2>second gear in the second half if the Texans don't

0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:11.359
<v Speaker 2>put up a fight. But I'm telling you right now,

0:23:11.960 --> 0:23:19.240
<v Speaker 2>here's one little prior to the gambling show note, Chiefs

0:23:20.240 --> 0:23:28.040
<v Speaker 2>over first half points might be the best bet of

0:23:28.160 --> 0:23:33.439
<v Speaker 2>these NFL playoffs. The producers can tell me what it is.

0:23:33.840 --> 0:23:39.879
<v Speaker 2>My guess is it's probably fourteen and a half. You

0:23:39.920 --> 0:23:41.800
<v Speaker 2>guys can put in the dock real quick. If you

0:23:41.840 --> 0:23:45.560
<v Speaker 2>guys want to look up what it is exactly, I'm

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:48.040
<v Speaker 2>trying to find it right now as I'm talking to you.

0:23:48.680 --> 0:23:54.880
<v Speaker 2>But the Chiefs over first half points? And is there

0:23:54.880 --> 0:23:59.160
<v Speaker 2>what's the first half spread? First half spread is Kansas

0:23:59.200 --> 0:24:03.280
<v Speaker 2>City minus four and a half. I like that. What

0:24:03.440 --> 0:24:07.360
<v Speaker 2>I love is the well, I mean, I can probably

0:24:07.400 --> 0:24:09.560
<v Speaker 2>game it out. What the first half? Yeah, I mean

0:24:09.920 --> 0:24:14.200
<v Speaker 2>Vegas thinks that this game is gonna basically be thirteen

0:24:14.320 --> 0:24:17.679
<v Speaker 2>and a half? Is the Chiefs first half point spread,

0:24:17.760 --> 0:24:24.600
<v Speaker 2>point total. I'm telling you right now they might have

0:24:24.720 --> 0:24:28.959
<v Speaker 2>if they if the Chiefs receive the opening kickoff, they'll

0:24:29.000 --> 0:24:31.920
<v Speaker 2>have the thirteen and a half by the end of

0:24:31.960 --> 0:24:36.919
<v Speaker 2>the first quarter. That much is so again, Like now,

0:24:37.359 --> 0:24:40.359
<v Speaker 2>I do think we might get Andy Reid's shutdown mode

0:24:40.440 --> 0:24:43.679
<v Speaker 2>in a playoff game if like the halftime score is

0:24:43.720 --> 0:24:49.080
<v Speaker 2>twenty to three. But no, I'm not gonna see the

0:24:49.240 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs a week from Sunday. Say it again to manse nothing.

0:24:54.280 --> 0:24:55.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if you said already I said it

0:24:55.720 --> 0:24:58.320
<v Speaker 3>was minus one five, said the odds on it.

0:24:58.520 --> 0:25:02.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, so it's yeah, So it's actually it's not

0:25:02.280 --> 0:25:05.159
<v Speaker 2>even full ten sent juice, just five sent juice. So

0:25:05.240 --> 0:25:10.640
<v Speaker 2>it's slightly tiny bit juice to the under I I mean,

0:25:10.720 --> 0:25:16.200
<v Speaker 2>that is as good of a bad as you're gonna find,

0:25:17.440 --> 0:25:19.919
<v Speaker 2>is the Chiefs over thirteen and a half in the

0:25:19.920 --> 0:25:25.280
<v Speaker 2>first half. I want to make this clear. Next week,

0:25:26.920 --> 0:25:30.560
<v Speaker 2>next Sunday against Baltimore or Buffalo is going to be

0:25:30.600 --> 0:25:37.920
<v Speaker 2>a war. And I am not gonna be as headstrong

0:25:38.800 --> 0:25:44.960
<v Speaker 2>about that game this week. You let me remind the

0:25:45.000 --> 0:25:49.200
<v Speaker 2>audience one other thing before we move on. So Patrick

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:54.200
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes has suffered, there's been three injuries in his career

0:25:54.840 --> 0:25:57.000
<v Speaker 2>that he has had to leave the game because of.

0:25:58.400 --> 0:26:02.320
<v Speaker 2>One was the quarter back sneak years ago that he

0:26:02.400 --> 0:26:06.240
<v Speaker 2>didn't miss two weeks because he dislocated his kneecap got

0:26:06.280 --> 0:26:09.119
<v Speaker 2>carted off the field. I thought I was gonna collapse.

0:26:10.520 --> 0:26:17.119
<v Speaker 2>The other two both happened in playoff games. In the

0:26:17.200 --> 0:26:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs first playoff game of the year against the Browns

0:26:23.119 --> 0:26:28.320
<v Speaker 2>in the twenty twenty season, they thought he suffered a concussion.

0:26:28.359 --> 0:26:33.600
<v Speaker 2>He actually got choked and passed out, and so they

0:26:33.840 --> 0:26:35.680
<v Speaker 2>he was out and they wouldn't let him come back in.

0:26:35.960 --> 0:26:40.480
<v Speaker 2>It was a crazy play because like he blacked out temporarily,

0:26:40.600 --> 0:26:43.960
<v Speaker 2>so his knees buckled, So they said no concussion, but

0:26:44.040 --> 0:26:46.159
<v Speaker 2>he had no If you watch the play and I

0:26:46.280 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 2>talked to him after the fact, there was no head injury.

0:26:49.600 --> 0:26:51.560
<v Speaker 2>It was just they tried to tackle him and got

0:26:51.600 --> 0:26:56.080
<v Speaker 2>their arm around his windpipe and he passed out. And

0:26:56.119 --> 0:27:00.919
<v Speaker 2>that was the Henny thing as possible, Chad Henny moment

0:27:01.119 --> 0:27:04.359
<v Speaker 2>where he runs for it on third and seventeen and

0:27:04.400 --> 0:27:06.240
<v Speaker 2>then they throw the pass on fourth and one to

0:27:06.240 --> 0:27:10.280
<v Speaker 2>beat the Browns and Baker the other one. He came

0:27:10.359 --> 0:27:13.520
<v Speaker 2>back in this game but was the Jags game when

0:27:13.560 --> 0:27:16.040
<v Speaker 2>I think it was arden Key did the hip drop

0:27:16.119 --> 0:27:22.120
<v Speaker 2>tackle he'd sprained his ankle. The other three the other four,

0:27:22.359 --> 0:27:27.359
<v Speaker 2>So in his career, two of his six first playoff

0:27:27.440 --> 0:27:33.720
<v Speaker 2>games he hasn't played the whole game. The other four,

0:27:35.160 --> 0:27:40.840
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs have won thirty one to thirteen, fifty one

0:27:40.960 --> 0:27:44.280
<v Speaker 2>to thirty one after being down twenty four to nothing,

0:27:45.880 --> 0:27:49.959
<v Speaker 2>forty two to twenty one, and twenty six to seven.

0:27:51.320 --> 0:27:55.400
<v Speaker 2>They have won them all by at least nineteen points

0:27:55.520 --> 0:27:58.480
<v Speaker 2>or eighteen points, pardon me, In fact, they have won

0:27:58.560 --> 0:28:02.919
<v Speaker 2>them by that's so fun. They beat the Browns, they

0:28:03.000 --> 0:28:06.760
<v Speaker 2>beat the Colts by exactly eighteen, They beat the Dolphins

0:28:07.040 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 2>by exactly nineteen, they beat the Texans by exactly twenty,

0:28:11.400 --> 0:28:14.719
<v Speaker 2>and they beat the Steelers by exactly twenty one. So

0:28:14.880 --> 0:28:19.199
<v Speaker 2>eighteen nineteen twenty twenty one they had scored the They

0:28:19.280 --> 0:28:23.680
<v Speaker 2>have scored thirty one, fifty one, forty two, and last

0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:30.280
<v Speaker 2>year twenty six in negative twenty degree weather. That vintage

0:28:30.400 --> 0:28:34.400
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs team that you've been looking for all year, you're

0:28:34.440 --> 0:28:38.320
<v Speaker 2>gonna see Saturday afternoon. I don't know if it will

0:28:38.360 --> 0:28:40.320
<v Speaker 2>be for the full game, because I don't know if

0:28:40.320 --> 0:28:45.480
<v Speaker 2>the Texans Dolphins is gonna keep it close, but certainly

0:28:45.520 --> 0:28:46.440
<v Speaker 2>for the first half.

0:28:46.840 --> 0:28:51.360
<v Speaker 3>All right, next, Yeah, so you changed your NFC Super

0:28:51.400 --> 0:28:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Bowl pick this time to the Rams. You initially had Philly.

0:28:55.400 --> 0:28:57.360
<v Speaker 3>So the Rams end up losing this game, will you

0:28:57.360 --> 0:28:58.760
<v Speaker 3>shamelessly go back to Philly?

0:29:01.160 --> 0:29:03.120
<v Speaker 2>H No, I think if the Rams lose this game,

0:29:03.160 --> 0:29:05.760
<v Speaker 2>I won't be allowed to have an NFC Super Bowl pick.

0:29:05.840 --> 0:29:07.800
<v Speaker 2>To be totally honest with you, I don't think you're

0:29:07.840 --> 0:29:13.240
<v Speaker 2>allowed for And what I will tell you is this,

0:29:15.280 --> 0:29:17.920
<v Speaker 2>and we'll spend more time on Rams Eagles in the picks.

0:29:20.920 --> 0:29:29.600
<v Speaker 2>It's very, very rare that one team has a decided

0:29:30.600 --> 0:29:35.200
<v Speaker 2>advantage at coach and quarterback and that team is the

0:29:35.280 --> 0:29:42.200
<v Speaker 2>underdog I and it is incredibly rare that one team

0:29:42.240 --> 0:29:45.800
<v Speaker 2>has the decided advantage at coaching quarterback and that team loses.

0:29:46.560 --> 0:29:49.320
<v Speaker 2>And that's what the Rams have now. One instance of

0:29:49.360 --> 0:29:52.880
<v Speaker 2>the team having the decided advantage at coaching quarterback and

0:29:52.920 --> 0:29:57.200
<v Speaker 2>losing is actually the Chiefs to the Bengals in the

0:29:57.240 --> 0:30:00.160
<v Speaker 2>AFC Championship Game in overtime in twenty twenty one. On

0:30:00.880 --> 0:30:07.040
<v Speaker 2>Another example would be I we now would say the

0:30:07.120 --> 0:30:12.600
<v Speaker 2>Vikings to the Giants, but at the time I don't

0:30:12.600 --> 0:30:15.320
<v Speaker 2>know if people thought Kevin O'Connell was better than Brian Dable.

0:30:16.200 --> 0:30:18.840
<v Speaker 2>Brian Dable just won Coach of the Year, and so

0:30:20.080 --> 0:30:25.480
<v Speaker 2>I just this Rams team is really really dangerous. And

0:30:25.760 --> 0:30:28.280
<v Speaker 2>again we can move off that here because we're gonna

0:30:28.280 --> 0:30:30.880
<v Speaker 2>talk more about them in the picks segment. Let's go

0:30:30.920 --> 0:30:32.719
<v Speaker 2>to the last game. Uh yo.

0:30:32.880 --> 0:30:36.400
<v Speaker 3>So Detroit is obviously rested off the buy they're catching

0:30:36.560 --> 0:30:38.840
<v Speaker 3>Washington and we don't know what's gonna happen there as

0:30:38.880 --> 0:30:41.719
<v Speaker 3>a young, feisty team, and we obviously know Detroit's going

0:30:41.760 --> 0:30:44.040
<v Speaker 3>to be able to compete with Super Bowls in the future.

0:30:44.960 --> 0:30:46.960
<v Speaker 3>But is it crazy to say that Washington is going

0:30:47.000 --> 0:30:49.920
<v Speaker 3>to be their their best competition in the NFC for

0:30:50.000 --> 0:30:50.640
<v Speaker 3>years to come?

0:30:53.240 --> 0:30:57.080
<v Speaker 2>So that's interesting. I hadn't thought about this game under

0:30:57.080 --> 0:31:03.360
<v Speaker 2>those terms. So I do think is positioned incredibly well. Right,

0:31:03.440 --> 0:31:05.960
<v Speaker 2>So let's just say Detroit's the class of the conference

0:31:05.960 --> 0:31:14.480
<v Speaker 2>for the time being. Who else is right there with them?

0:31:15.040 --> 0:31:18.800
<v Speaker 2>I think we've got to give Philadelphia credit for what

0:31:18.880 --> 0:31:23.320
<v Speaker 2>they've been able to do year after year and put

0:31:23.360 --> 0:31:27.560
<v Speaker 2>them right there. I would put Washington in the same

0:31:27.640 --> 0:31:31.560
<v Speaker 2>bucket that I would put Green Bay. Young quarterback you

0:31:31.680 --> 0:31:35.840
<v Speaker 2>really like, you know, a lot of flexibility cap wise,

0:31:36.680 --> 0:31:42.000
<v Speaker 2>very young defense and trying to build it out. You know,

0:31:42.120 --> 0:31:44.360
<v Speaker 2>obviously I would love to put the Bears in there

0:31:44.400 --> 0:31:46.800
<v Speaker 2>because of Kleb, but they haven't proven that at all,

0:31:46.840 --> 0:31:52.320
<v Speaker 2>so I can't. I would say it. I love what

0:31:52.520 --> 0:31:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Washington has put together. I also in this game, and

0:31:58.080 --> 0:31:59.680
<v Speaker 2>you know you'll hear about it when you do our

0:31:59.720 --> 0:32:02.160
<v Speaker 2>picks in a minute. But this was the one game

0:32:02.200 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 2>I struggled with demonse from a picks perspective, because I

0:32:05.760 --> 0:32:09.080
<v Speaker 2>would be listen, I'd be shocked if Washington won the game.

0:32:09.680 --> 0:32:18.240
<v Speaker 2>But Detroit's defense had been truly horrible to close the year.

0:32:19.440 --> 0:32:23.840
<v Speaker 2>And when we look at it, they I mean, they

0:32:23.880 --> 0:32:28.840
<v Speaker 2>allowed thirty one to the Packers, forty eight to the Bills,

0:32:29.360 --> 0:32:33.840
<v Speaker 2>thirty four to the Niners. But then we saw them

0:32:34.440 --> 0:32:37.480
<v Speaker 2>hold the Vikings and Sam Donald to nine points, and

0:32:37.520 --> 0:32:40.680
<v Speaker 2>we're like, Okay, they figured something out. But then we

0:32:40.720 --> 0:32:43.960
<v Speaker 2>saw the Vikings and Sam Donald immediately get held to

0:32:44.040 --> 0:32:47.960
<v Speaker 2>nine points again in the next game they played, and like, oh,

0:32:48.120 --> 0:32:51.880
<v Speaker 2>maybe it was that Donald just pumpkin moded it. So

0:32:53.720 --> 0:32:57.480
<v Speaker 2>I do think Washington is gonna be able to move

0:32:57.520 --> 0:33:03.600
<v Speaker 2>the football. I also I said this, I think on Tuesday.

0:33:03.640 --> 0:33:09.719
<v Speaker 2>I'll say it again. Three quarterbacks ever as a rookie

0:33:10.120 --> 0:33:16.160
<v Speaker 2>have won road playoff games. Mark Sanchez who then also

0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:19.200
<v Speaker 2>won on the road in round two and went to

0:33:19.240 --> 0:33:23.880
<v Speaker 2>the conference championship game. Joe Flacco, who then also won

0:33:24.080 --> 0:33:26.840
<v Speaker 2>in round two and went to the conference championship game.

0:33:27.480 --> 0:33:31.720
<v Speaker 2>Russell Wilson, who I'm gonna put that game is like

0:33:31.840 --> 0:33:36.480
<v Speaker 2>a game that gets forgotten to history. Russell Wilson's second

0:33:36.520 --> 0:33:41.560
<v Speaker 2>career playoff game. It was an old timer. So it

0:33:41.760 --> 0:33:50.600
<v Speaker 2>was Seahawks Falcons in Atlanta halftime score twenty to zering

0:33:50.840 --> 0:33:57.600
<v Speaker 2>Atlanta going into the fourth quarter, Demons Russell Wilson to

0:33:57.680 --> 0:34:02.560
<v Speaker 2>rookies on the road going into the fourth quarter, twenty

0:34:02.720 --> 0:34:10.480
<v Speaker 2>seven to seven Atlanta. The Seahawks then score three consecutive touchdowns,

0:34:11.239 --> 0:34:15.080
<v Speaker 2>including a Marshawn Lynch touchdown with thirty one seconds left,

0:34:16.160 --> 0:34:19.880
<v Speaker 2>uh to take a twenty eight to twenty seven lead,

0:34:21.760 --> 0:34:25.800
<v Speaker 2>and they can't hold it for those final thirty seconds.

0:34:26.239 --> 0:34:29.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm checking that was there a kickoff out of bounds?

0:34:29.320 --> 0:34:31.960
<v Speaker 2>What happened? So they take the lead twenty eight to

0:34:31.960 --> 0:34:35.400
<v Speaker 2>twenty seven. It wasn't a kickoff out of bounds, but

0:34:35.440 --> 0:34:39.799
<v Speaker 2>there's a kick return to the twenty eight, and so

0:34:39.840 --> 0:34:42.520
<v Speaker 2>there's twenty five seconds left. Atlanta has the ball down

0:34:42.560 --> 0:34:45.640
<v Speaker 2>one on their own twenty eight. Matt Ryan to Harry

0:34:45.680 --> 0:34:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Douglas for twenty two yards to get it to midfield.

0:34:51.320 --> 0:34:54.680
<v Speaker 2>Then Matt Ryan to Tony Gonzalez. How about that for

0:34:54.840 --> 0:34:59.799
<v Speaker 2>nineteen yards? Uh, and they're kicking a field goal. That's

0:34:59.840 --> 0:35:02.520
<v Speaker 2>on believable. They got the ball twenty five seconds left,

0:35:02.719 --> 0:35:06.640
<v Speaker 2>they kicked their field goal with thirteen seconds left. They're like,

0:35:06.680 --> 0:35:10.799
<v Speaker 2>we don't even want to run anymore plays and Matt

0:35:10.880 --> 0:35:15.279
<v Speaker 2>Bryant bangs a forty nine yarder and they win. So

0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:18.960
<v Speaker 2>point being only three rookie quarterbacks ever have won a

0:35:19.040 --> 0:35:21.960
<v Speaker 2>road playoff game. Two of the three then won the

0:35:22.000 --> 0:35:25.040
<v Speaker 2>next round, and the other one had a lead with

0:35:25.560 --> 0:35:30.960
<v Speaker 2>thirty seconds left kicking off and they lost. So it

0:35:31.000 --> 0:35:34.840
<v Speaker 2>would be an unbelievable story if Jaden can win. But

0:35:37.000 --> 0:35:43.359
<v Speaker 2>everything seems to come up. The NFL and the AFC

0:35:45.280 --> 0:35:53.160
<v Speaker 2>Championship weekend as long as the Chiefs win is sets

0:35:53.239 --> 0:35:57.640
<v Speaker 2>up an all time game. Mahomes trying to reach his

0:35:57.719 --> 0:36:03.120
<v Speaker 2>third straight Super Bowl? What would be the sixth? Is

0:36:03.160 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 2>that right?

0:36:03.600 --> 0:36:03.719
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:36:03.960 --> 0:36:10.640
<v Speaker 2>Sorry? The fifth Super Bowl of his career and his

0:36:10.880 --> 0:36:13.600
<v Speaker 2>fifth in the last six years, while going for a

0:36:13.640 --> 0:36:19.799
<v Speaker 2>three peat against either Lamar or Josh doesn't matter who.

0:36:20.200 --> 0:36:23.200
<v Speaker 2>Both of them had their seasons ended in their building

0:36:23.280 --> 0:36:27.319
<v Speaker 2>by Patrick last year. For those guys to reach their

0:36:27.320 --> 0:36:30.160
<v Speaker 2>first ever Super Bowl, that'd be one side of the bracket.

0:36:31.200 --> 0:36:36.319
<v Speaker 2>The other side of the bracket. If it's Lions Eagles,

0:36:36.760 --> 0:36:38.960
<v Speaker 2>you get the two best teams in the conference all year.

0:36:39.800 --> 0:36:45.680
<v Speaker 2>Out of its Lions Rams, you get an all time

0:36:45.800 --> 0:36:49.880
<v Speaker 2>storyline game, the Lions trying to reach their first Super

0:36:49.920 --> 0:36:55.360
<v Speaker 2>Bowl ever with the best team they've ever had against

0:36:55.680 --> 0:37:01.080
<v Speaker 2>their guy Matt Stafford, who they traded away to the Rams,

0:37:01.600 --> 0:37:04.160
<v Speaker 2>and he instantly won a Super Bowl and could deny

0:37:04.239 --> 0:37:08.640
<v Speaker 2>them their own trip. It'd be a pretty epic conference

0:37:08.680 --> 0:37:12.319
<v Speaker 2>championship weekend. How do I see that going? And who

0:37:12.360 --> 0:37:15.600
<v Speaker 2>do I have in the College Football National Championship? We

0:37:15.680 --> 0:37:24.439
<v Speaker 2>do all that next What's Right? All right? Welcome back

0:37:24.480 --> 0:37:27.200
<v Speaker 2>in What's Right with Nick? Right before we get demon's

0:37:27.200 --> 0:37:31.680
<v Speaker 2>a two our divisional weekend picks and another winning weekend

0:37:31.760 --> 0:37:34.640
<v Speaker 2>for yours truly, and I got on your corner. He

0:37:34.719 --> 0:37:37.520
<v Speaker 2>even gave out a great teaser. Let's do a little

0:37:37.520 --> 0:37:40.520
<v Speaker 2>college football just for a moment, because the National Championship

0:37:40.560 --> 0:37:42.320
<v Speaker 2>game is on Monday.

0:37:42.920 --> 0:37:45.279
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, your favorite sports weekend of the year is

0:37:45.320 --> 0:37:47.640
<v Speaker 3>going to be capped off with the National Championship game

0:37:48.040 --> 0:37:51.680
<v Speaker 3>between Ohio State and Notre Dame. So you're not usually

0:37:52.000 --> 0:37:54.319
<v Speaker 3>a college football guy, but would you say anything in

0:37:54.320 --> 0:37:55.600
<v Speaker 3>this game is catching your eye?

0:37:56.880 --> 0:37:59.839
<v Speaker 2>Listen, I love what Notre Dame's done. Marcus Freeman's made them.

0:37:59.840 --> 0:38:03.759
<v Speaker 2>Like Mikable, I said on the TV show a few

0:38:03.760 --> 0:38:06.040
<v Speaker 2>weeks ago that I thought they were gonna win the

0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:12.120
<v Speaker 2>National Championship. Now Ohio State's better. There's no there's no

0:38:12.200 --> 0:38:16.239
<v Speaker 2>denying Ohio State's the better team. I just feel like

0:38:17.800 --> 0:38:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Notre Dame it's gonna have a little something extra for him.

0:38:22.600 --> 0:38:25.560
<v Speaker 2>This is not I'm gonna say this on the front end.

0:38:25.760 --> 0:38:28.440
<v Speaker 2>You will get better, more in depth game analysis of

0:38:28.480 --> 0:38:31.480
<v Speaker 2>this game elsewhere. But here is what made me even

0:38:31.600 --> 0:38:41.040
<v Speaker 2>more confident about my Notre Dame gut feeling. Every gambler

0:38:41.640 --> 0:38:47.040
<v Speaker 2>in America, and this has been uh vouched for by

0:38:47.160 --> 0:38:51.719
<v Speaker 2>sportsbooks and places that report on these types of things,

0:38:52.480 --> 0:38:57.080
<v Speaker 2>have a two team teaser going this weekend Demons or

0:38:57.120 --> 0:39:01.680
<v Speaker 2>a two team moneyline parlay, and it is the Chiefs

0:39:03.560 --> 0:39:12.200
<v Speaker 2>parlayed or teased with Ohio State and Winever. Ever, everyone

0:39:12.400 --> 0:39:16.880
<v Speaker 2>has one of those going. It doesn't bode well for

0:39:17.000 --> 0:39:19.799
<v Speaker 2>one of the legs. And I'm here to tell you

0:39:19.840 --> 0:39:23.120
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs aren't losing to the Texans on Saturday, So

0:39:23.239 --> 0:39:29.080
<v Speaker 2>that just leaves Ohio State and I just think Marcus

0:39:29.080 --> 0:39:34.479
<v Speaker 2>Freeman and Notre Dame are gonna win. And I think

0:39:34.560 --> 0:39:39.200
<v Speaker 2>that there is going to be I wonder if Ryan

0:39:39.320 --> 0:39:41.520
<v Speaker 2>Day is gonna be able to ignore the devil on

0:39:41.600 --> 0:39:45.120
<v Speaker 2>his shoulder saying falling into the same trap he fell

0:39:45.160 --> 0:39:47.520
<v Speaker 2>into against Michigan, which is, Oh, they think they're the

0:39:47.520 --> 0:39:50.719
<v Speaker 2>physical team. We're gonna show them who the physical team is.

0:39:51.239 --> 0:39:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Ohio State should lean into who they are, which is

0:39:54.320 --> 0:40:00.319
<v Speaker 2>you've got three first round wide receivers, throw the ball.

0:40:00.560 --> 0:40:02.239
<v Speaker 2>Notre Dame just wants to run the hell out of

0:40:02.239 --> 0:40:05.200
<v Speaker 2>the ball and play good defense. I can't wait for it.

0:40:05.680 --> 0:40:08.640
<v Speaker 2>I think again, it's not the greatest analysis in the world.

0:40:08.760 --> 0:40:11.400
<v Speaker 2>Just have a gut feeling. I think Notre Dame wins.

0:40:11.880 --> 0:40:15.520
<v Speaker 2>Great analysis has been my picks all year. Just another

0:40:15.600 --> 0:40:21.000
<v Speaker 2>great weekend. Really, in my opinion, only one game I

0:40:21.160 --> 0:40:24.080
<v Speaker 2>was on the wrong side of. We can go over

0:40:24.400 --> 0:40:27.680
<v Speaker 2>who it was last week in Demonse, another four and

0:40:27.719 --> 0:40:32.239
<v Speaker 2>two week, Houston plus three against the Chargers went out right.

0:40:32.760 --> 0:40:36.760
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo minus eight and a half against Denver, spot them seven,

0:40:36.840 --> 0:40:41.760
<v Speaker 2>score thirty one straight. Tampa minus three against Washington. Again,

0:40:41.920 --> 0:40:43.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't feel I was on the wrong side of

0:40:43.600 --> 0:40:47.239
<v Speaker 2>that one. That was not only a coin flip game,

0:40:47.320 --> 0:40:50.279
<v Speaker 2>a coin flip point spread game, because if Tampa would

0:40:50.320 --> 0:40:54.120
<v Speaker 2>have punched it in on the drive win they screwed

0:40:54.200 --> 0:40:56.880
<v Speaker 2>up the snap, they would have been up four. So

0:40:57.000 --> 0:40:59.320
<v Speaker 2>I feel fine about that. Pittsburgh plus nine and a

0:40:59.320 --> 0:41:01.839
<v Speaker 2>half against Ball, the more bat wrong side of it

0:41:01.920 --> 0:41:04.600
<v Speaker 2>a bad pick. Philly minus four and a half against

0:41:04.600 --> 0:41:07.720
<v Speaker 2>green Bay. Philly didn't even play that well and easily covered.

0:41:08.040 --> 0:41:10.560
<v Speaker 2>And the Rams plus one and a half against Minnesota.

0:41:11.280 --> 0:41:13.440
<v Speaker 2>That thing was never a doubt from the word go.

0:41:14.600 --> 0:41:19.279
<v Speaker 2>It also did allow the teaser I gave America the

0:41:19.400 --> 0:41:21.759
<v Speaker 2>Rams plus seven and a half and the Bills down

0:41:21.800 --> 0:41:26.080
<v Speaker 2>to two and a half that came in, and I'll

0:41:26.080 --> 0:41:33.120
<v Speaker 2>tell you right now, I I placed teasers that teaser

0:41:33.200 --> 0:41:37.960
<v Speaker 2>this past weekend, and then Monday morning I placed another

0:41:38.040 --> 0:41:42.160
<v Speaker 2>teaser involving the Rams. I teased the Rams up to

0:41:42.280 --> 0:41:45.839
<v Speaker 2>plus seven and a half in that game, along with

0:41:45.920 --> 0:41:49.319
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs down to minus one and a half, and

0:41:49.400 --> 0:41:52.000
<v Speaker 2>I give you another. So I half that's already in,

0:41:52.840 --> 0:41:56.279
<v Speaker 2>and I'll give you another one. I did. I teased

0:41:56.719 --> 0:41:59.359
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs down to minus one and a half and

0:41:59.400 --> 0:42:03.800
<v Speaker 2>the bill this weekend up to plus seven and a half.

0:42:04.239 --> 0:42:08.359
<v Speaker 2>So we got playoff teasers galore coming. And so one

0:42:08.400 --> 0:42:11.440
<v Speaker 2>of them, one of them's in, one of them's halfway in.

0:42:11.880 --> 0:42:15.640
<v Speaker 2>One of them hasn't kicked off yet either leg obviously,

0:42:16.000 --> 0:42:20.560
<v Speaker 2>So there we go. Let's start with our picks this weekend. Well,

0:42:20.600 --> 0:42:24.680
<v Speaker 2>it's a playoff football, man, we gotta playoff football. Also,

0:42:25.120 --> 0:42:30.000
<v Speaker 2>remember that screenshot I sent you up that bet I

0:42:30.080 --> 0:42:34.479
<v Speaker 2>made on the Rams at seventy five to one I've

0:42:34.520 --> 0:42:38.719
<v Speaker 2>got If we have a Chiefs Rams super Bowl, I

0:42:38.760 --> 0:42:43.719
<v Speaker 2>am obviously I will be devastating if the Chiefs make

0:42:43.760 --> 0:42:46.239
<v Speaker 2>the Super Bowl and lose. But if we have a

0:42:46.320 --> 0:42:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs Ram Super Bowl, I will be locked into the

0:42:50.239 --> 0:42:53.400
<v Speaker 2>single biggest gambling win of my life in either direction.

0:42:54.239 --> 0:43:01.600
<v Speaker 2>And so now, if we have a Lions Chiefs super

0:43:01.600 --> 0:43:08.520
<v Speaker 2>Bowl and the Lions win, it will it might be

0:43:08.640 --> 0:43:10.719
<v Speaker 2>the single biggest gambling loss.

0:43:10.400 --> 0:43:11.719
<v Speaker 3>In my life.

0:43:12.480 --> 0:43:15.560
<v Speaker 2>It would be bad. It would be bad, but you

0:43:15.600 --> 0:43:17.560
<v Speaker 2>know that's what we you know, that's what we live

0:43:17.640 --> 0:43:20.560
<v Speaker 2>for for the action. All right, let's go, let's go

0:43:20.640 --> 0:43:23.800
<v Speaker 2>in order, first game of the weekend. Go ahead.

0:43:24.400 --> 0:43:26.879
<v Speaker 3>First off, you've got Casey minus eight and a half

0:43:26.960 --> 0:43:27.720
<v Speaker 3>versus Houston.

0:43:30.600 --> 0:43:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I don't think this one's close, guys. I laid

0:43:33.600 --> 0:43:36.400
<v Speaker 2>it all out earlier in the show. I think Casey's

0:43:36.440 --> 0:43:38.160
<v Speaker 2>I think this will be the first game all year

0:43:39.520 --> 0:43:42.480
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs score more than thirty points. I think the

0:43:42.520 --> 0:43:45.320
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs will have twenty points at halftime. I think Mahomes

0:43:45.360 --> 0:43:47.120
<v Speaker 2>is gonna get the ball out of his hands quick

0:43:47.160 --> 0:43:50.520
<v Speaker 2>and neutralize that Houston pass rush. He is not going

0:43:50.600 --> 0:43:54.160
<v Speaker 2>to throw make the types of throws that Justin Herbert

0:43:54.200 --> 0:43:59.720
<v Speaker 2>did and let Houston pick him off four times. Patrick

0:43:59.760 --> 0:44:04.440
<v Speaker 2>Mullos in this round in his career is six and oh,

0:44:04.560 --> 0:44:09.320
<v Speaker 2>they score thirty two points a game. He has sixteen touchdowns,

0:44:09.400 --> 0:44:16.120
<v Speaker 2>zero picks. They're historically blowouts, the one that well, that's

0:44:16.160 --> 0:44:19.400
<v Speaker 2>not fair. Two of the six have not been blowouts.

0:44:19.719 --> 0:44:22.960
<v Speaker 2>But in the divisional round they have beaten the Colts

0:44:23.080 --> 0:44:29.920
<v Speaker 2>by eighteen, the Texans by twenty, the Browns in a

0:44:30.719 --> 0:44:33.200
<v Speaker 2>I guess you know what I Let me take that back,

0:44:33.239 --> 0:44:36.479
<v Speaker 2>because I forgot that the Browns game was the divisional round.

0:44:36.840 --> 0:44:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Obviously the thirteen seconds game was the divisional round. So

0:44:40.160 --> 0:44:45.160
<v Speaker 2>they haven't all been blowouts. That's incorrect by me. Their first,

0:44:45.160 --> 0:44:47.759
<v Speaker 2>but the first game of the playoffs. That's what I

0:44:47.840 --> 0:44:53.239
<v Speaker 2>was thinking. Four of the six times Mahomes been in

0:44:53.280 --> 0:44:57.760
<v Speaker 2>the playoffs, that first game they played after the bye

0:44:58.040 --> 0:45:01.520
<v Speaker 2>or after rest was a bl the two that what

0:45:01.960 --> 0:45:06.000
<v Speaker 2>weren't he got dinged up in? I just I think Houston.

0:45:06.360 --> 0:45:09.200
<v Speaker 2>This is around the Chiefs never lose in. And it's

0:45:09.239 --> 0:45:11.880
<v Speaker 2>around the Texans literally have never won in. They've never

0:45:11.920 --> 0:45:13.759
<v Speaker 2>played in the conference championship game.

0:45:14.400 --> 0:45:14.520
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:45:15.360 --> 0:45:19.520
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes in his career with extra rest is thirty one

0:45:19.560 --> 0:45:23.120
<v Speaker 2>and seven straight up. Mahomes in his career with thirteen

0:45:23.239 --> 0:45:26.000
<v Speaker 2>or more days of rest is nineteen and three straight

0:45:26.080 --> 0:45:29.960
<v Speaker 2>up and thirteen and nine against the spread. The Chiefs

0:45:30.280 --> 0:45:34.080
<v Speaker 2>last three regular season games that Mahomes played in, they

0:45:34.120 --> 0:45:38.799
<v Speaker 2>won by an average of thirteen points. And they we

0:45:39.040 --> 0:45:43.960
<v Speaker 2>just saw them play Houston and handle Houston pretty easily

0:45:44.560 --> 0:45:47.080
<v Speaker 2>as they were getting Hollywood Brown back in the game.

0:45:47.360 --> 0:45:51.160
<v Speaker 2>That's the game you and I watched together, right, demanse

0:45:51.640 --> 0:45:55.200
<v Speaker 2>was it the No, the Steelers game was on Christmas? No? No, No,

0:45:55.280 --> 0:46:02.680
<v Speaker 2>the Houston game was You weren't You weren't in New York.

0:46:02.760 --> 0:46:07.280
<v Speaker 2>Yet we watched Chiefs Raiders together over Thanksgiving and Chiefs

0:46:07.320 --> 0:46:11.560
<v Speaker 2>Steelers together on Christmas. This was the Saturday before Christmas.

0:46:11.760 --> 0:46:13.680
<v Speaker 2>But I like the Chiefs minus the eight and a

0:46:13.719 --> 0:46:15.120
<v Speaker 2>half next and.

0:46:15.280 --> 0:46:18.000
<v Speaker 3>She've got Washington plus nine and a half at Detroit.

0:46:20.320 --> 0:46:22.880
<v Speaker 2>This was the one that I struggled with the most.

0:46:23.080 --> 0:46:26.759
<v Speaker 2>I feel really good about the other two picks. This

0:46:26.840 --> 0:46:32.360
<v Speaker 2>one I ended up landing on. I just think Washington

0:46:32.960 --> 0:46:34.800
<v Speaker 2>is gonna be able to score a bunch of points.

0:46:35.840 --> 0:46:39.240
<v Speaker 2>The reason I struggled with it is I could see

0:46:39.239 --> 0:46:45.759
<v Speaker 2>a scenario where Washington scores twenty eight and doesn't cover

0:46:46.719 --> 0:46:50.640
<v Speaker 2>like I think Detroit might score every time they have

0:46:50.800 --> 0:46:54.720
<v Speaker 2>the ball, and so I do not trust Washington's defense

0:46:54.880 --> 0:47:01.359
<v Speaker 2>against the Lions at all. But Jaden's been so good

0:47:02.120 --> 0:47:08.080
<v Speaker 2>in big spots. Washington somewhat neutralizes the Lions fourth down

0:47:08.200 --> 0:47:11.120
<v Speaker 2>edge that they have on thost teams because Washington goes

0:47:11.200 --> 0:47:14.279
<v Speaker 2>forth on fourth down as aggressively and as much as

0:47:14.360 --> 0:47:21.200
<v Speaker 2>any team in the league, and there obviously will be

0:47:21.440 --> 0:47:26.400
<v Speaker 2>backdoor cover potential where even if Detroit is up fourteen points,

0:47:26.880 --> 0:47:30.480
<v Speaker 2>Washington's gonna be fighting to the very end. I'd really,

0:47:30.600 --> 0:47:36.480
<v Speaker 2>really would love if this thing could touch ten points,

0:47:37.400 --> 0:47:40.319
<v Speaker 2>so you can you know if they're down seventeen, your

0:47:40.360 --> 0:47:43.000
<v Speaker 2>BET's not dead because of the back door cover. But

0:47:43.480 --> 0:47:52.120
<v Speaker 2>I again, I do not have as much conviction in

0:47:52.160 --> 0:47:59.640
<v Speaker 2>this game as I do in the other three. But

0:47:59.760 --> 0:48:03.520
<v Speaker 2>we pick every game of the playoffs because I think

0:48:03.920 --> 0:48:09.560
<v Speaker 2>Detroit's defense is a truly beleaguered unit. Right now, I

0:48:09.600 --> 0:48:12.480
<v Speaker 2>will take Washington plus the points. But as you can hear,

0:48:13.320 --> 0:48:17.200
<v Speaker 2>i'm my heart's I don't this is I don't have

0:48:17.200 --> 0:48:20.680
<v Speaker 2>a great feel for it, and full disclosure to the audience,

0:48:21.320 --> 0:48:25.920
<v Speaker 2>this is a game I will not be better. So

0:48:26.680 --> 0:48:29.680
<v Speaker 2>the deal I have with the audience during the regular

0:48:29.719 --> 0:48:34.000
<v Speaker 2>season is we have a full slate of games. I

0:48:34.120 --> 0:48:38.520
<v Speaker 2>pick my five favorite and I bet all five games.

0:48:39.000 --> 0:48:42.920
<v Speaker 2>In the playoffs, I pick every single game, so I

0:48:42.960 --> 0:48:47.480
<v Speaker 2>don't feel the obligation to bet every single game if

0:48:47.520 --> 0:48:49.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't have a good feel for it. This is

0:48:50.040 --> 0:48:53.080
<v Speaker 2>the hardest one for me, but I'll take Washington plus

0:48:53.120 --> 0:48:54.120
<v Speaker 2>the points. Next.

0:48:55.120 --> 0:48:57.680
<v Speaker 3>Next, you've got the Rams plus six at Philly.

0:48:59.120 --> 0:49:00.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think the Rams are gonna win the game.

0:49:03.280 --> 0:49:06.959
<v Speaker 2>How about this? Fir A stet since two thousand and three,

0:49:07.920 --> 0:49:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl winning quarterbacks are sixty two and twenty five

0:49:15.719 --> 0:49:18.960
<v Speaker 2>against the spread when they're an underdog in the playoffs,

0:49:20.239 --> 0:49:24.120
<v Speaker 2>sixty two and twenty five when they're an underdog in

0:49:24.160 --> 0:49:28.440
<v Speaker 2>the playoffs. Sean McVeigh is sixteen and seven in his

0:49:28.560 --> 0:49:32.279
<v Speaker 2>career against the spread on short rest and seven and

0:49:32.400 --> 0:49:36.000
<v Speaker 2>one against the spread in his last eight games. In

0:49:36.040 --> 0:49:38.719
<v Speaker 2>this spot, the producers ask me if I'm interested in

0:49:38.719 --> 0:49:40.719
<v Speaker 2>the Rams money line at plus two thirty five. Yeah,

0:49:40.760 --> 0:49:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I just I'm betting the Rams to win the game.

0:49:43.760 --> 0:49:47.560
<v Speaker 2>So yes, I think the Rams are going to win

0:49:47.640 --> 0:49:51.400
<v Speaker 2>the game. Now, the Eagles at home in the playoffs

0:49:51.440 --> 0:49:55.600
<v Speaker 2>under Jalen Hurts just blow people out. They're three and

0:49:55.680 --> 0:50:00.680
<v Speaker 2>zero against the spread, and they they, however the spread

0:50:00.680 --> 0:50:03.560
<v Speaker 2>by an average of seventeen points per game. They have

0:50:03.719 --> 0:50:07.160
<v Speaker 2>just been an absolute wagon at home in the playoffs

0:50:07.239 --> 0:50:07.840
<v Speaker 2>with Jalen.

0:50:08.360 --> 0:50:10.000
<v Speaker 3>But you see them.

0:50:10.160 --> 0:50:17.200
<v Speaker 2>There are three playoff wins with Jalen Hurts. He's never

0:50:17.239 --> 0:50:19.560
<v Speaker 2>thrown for one hundred and forty yards in any of

0:50:19.560 --> 0:50:22.200
<v Speaker 2>these games, or more than one hundred and fifty yards.

0:50:22.360 --> 0:50:25.080
<v Speaker 2>He's never rushed for more than forty yards in any

0:50:25.120 --> 0:50:29.880
<v Speaker 2>of these games. And I just think McVeigh and Stafford

0:50:31.280 --> 0:50:34.960
<v Speaker 2>getting six points is a great side to be on.

0:50:35.560 --> 0:50:38.360
<v Speaker 2>And I like the Rams to win outright, And I

0:50:38.440 --> 0:50:43.000
<v Speaker 2>do think a Lions Rams NFC championship game just sets

0:50:43.080 --> 0:50:47.880
<v Speaker 2>up amazing drama and it's an amazing story for the NFL.

0:50:48.239 --> 0:50:51.080
<v Speaker 2>And now, lastly, demonte the game of the weekend.

0:50:51.160 --> 0:50:54.040
<v Speaker 3>Buffalo plus one and a half versus Baltimore.

0:50:56.680 --> 0:51:02.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I I think Buffalo is the slightly better team

0:51:02.200 --> 0:51:05.680
<v Speaker 2>and they're at home. I think this line should be

0:51:05.800 --> 0:51:09.640
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo minus two and a half, and so I would

0:51:09.680 --> 0:51:12.279
<v Speaker 2>not listen. I would not be shocked at Baltimore won.

0:51:13.080 --> 0:51:16.640
<v Speaker 2>But I think the line opened a little too short

0:51:16.680 --> 0:51:20.000
<v Speaker 2>when it opened Buffalo minus one and a half, and

0:51:20.040 --> 0:51:22.799
<v Speaker 2>the fact that it flipped all the way to the

0:51:22.840 --> 0:51:28.200
<v Speaker 2>other side is crazy to me, and so listen. I

0:51:28.280 --> 0:51:32.240
<v Speaker 2>understand Lamar is an underdog or as a small small

0:51:32.320 --> 0:51:35.840
<v Speaker 2>favorite is dominant twenty six and nine against spreading his career.

0:51:36.880 --> 0:51:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I just I think the conditions favor Buffalo. The home

0:51:43.160 --> 0:51:50.279
<v Speaker 2>field obviously favors Buffalo, the fact that they there is

0:51:51.640 --> 0:51:56.239
<v Speaker 2>immense pressure on both of these guys. Obviously, Lamar's yet

0:51:56.280 --> 0:51:59.440
<v Speaker 2>to have a great playoff run. Josh has lost in

0:51:59.480 --> 0:52:03.719
<v Speaker 2>this round three straight years, and he's lost in this

0:52:03.880 --> 0:52:08.239
<v Speaker 2>round at home two straight years. I just think the

0:52:08.280 --> 0:52:10.279
<v Speaker 2>Bills have been the second best team in football this

0:52:10.400 --> 0:52:15.080
<v Speaker 2>year and the second most complete team in football this year.

0:52:15.120 --> 0:52:17.560
<v Speaker 2>As far as Offen steve, it's not necessarily all the talent,

0:52:18.160 --> 0:52:21.160
<v Speaker 2>and so I like Buffalo plus a point and a half. Demons,

0:52:21.400 --> 0:52:28.719
<v Speaker 2>I assume that you are big on the Ravens here, Yeah, I.

0:52:28.880 --> 0:52:31.279
<v Speaker 3>Take the I take the Ravens. Mind well, in a

0:52:31.320 --> 0:52:33.200
<v Speaker 3>close game like this, kind of like getting the points,

0:52:33.200 --> 0:52:34.920
<v Speaker 3>but it's it's one half point. I think the Ravens

0:52:34.920 --> 0:52:38.439
<v Speaker 3>are gonna win. So it's just no and if they do.

0:52:38.440 --> 0:52:42.879
<v Speaker 2>Right, if you think this is really right, this is

0:52:43.160 --> 0:52:45.839
<v Speaker 2>not a pick them, but it's close to a pick them.

0:52:46.160 --> 0:52:50.480
<v Speaker 2>Do you agree with me that? Well? Who do you

0:52:50.560 --> 0:52:52.279
<v Speaker 2>do you think this is a Lamar game? Or if

0:52:52.280 --> 0:52:55.040
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens win, is it a Lamar game or Garret?

0:52:55.080 --> 0:52:57.960
<v Speaker 3>It's more likely to be Derrick Henry. He's more likely

0:52:58.000 --> 0:53:02.080
<v Speaker 3>to be wouldn't say. I wouldn't say I would be

0:53:02.120 --> 0:53:04.960
<v Speaker 3>shocked if it were Lamar. But yeah, I think that's

0:53:04.960 --> 0:53:06.040
<v Speaker 3>what the game plan should be.

0:53:06.880 --> 0:53:11.719
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, so all right, So my four picks for

0:53:11.760 --> 0:53:15.120
<v Speaker 4>the week, Kansas City laying the eight and a half,

0:53:15.160 --> 0:53:18.600
<v Speaker 4>and then three underdogs Washington plus nine and a half,

0:53:18.840 --> 0:53:21.839
<v Speaker 4>the Rams plus six, the Bills plus.

0:53:21.520 --> 0:53:25.400
<v Speaker 2>One and a half. I don't feel the need to

0:53:25.560 --> 0:53:28.480
<v Speaker 2>recap your picks from last week, Demonse. I don't think

0:53:28.480 --> 0:53:34.719
<v Speaker 2>that's well, I mean, I don't. It feels mean. I mean,

0:53:34.760 --> 0:53:39.840
<v Speaker 2>we can show it to you. Demonse decided to stray

0:53:39.920 --> 0:53:43.839
<v Speaker 2>from his teaser comfort zone and it really didn't go

0:53:43.880 --> 0:53:48.440
<v Speaker 2>great somehow. Yeah, I mean, go ahead if you want

0:53:48.480 --> 0:53:50.520
<v Speaker 2>to defend yourself here. It just didn't go great.

0:53:50.920 --> 0:53:55.040
<v Speaker 3>Uh yeah, I mean this it's really you know, defense,

0:53:55.520 --> 0:53:58.399
<v Speaker 3>it's unfortunate. I was doing really well on the pick

0:53:58.440 --> 0:54:00.920
<v Speaker 3>them league on the side. That seems like I was

0:54:01.000 --> 0:54:03.839
<v Speaker 3>lying the entire time I make picks. This one time,

0:54:04.200 --> 0:54:06.719
<v Speaker 3>how did you finish in that, pops, I didn't make

0:54:06.760 --> 0:54:10.160
<v Speaker 3>my picks when I went out to Christmas vacation, so

0:54:10.520 --> 0:54:13.520
<v Speaker 3>that put me in a really bad you know, yeah,

0:54:13.680 --> 0:54:17.400
<v Speaker 3>really really it was. I gotta say, like, you know,

0:54:17.480 --> 0:54:21.799
<v Speaker 3>it's like a series that made me finishing third, I was,

0:54:23.320 --> 0:54:26.319
<v Speaker 3>I was, I was actually like a little like, bro,

0:54:26.440 --> 0:54:30.320
<v Speaker 3>what come on dude. But but yeah, I can't believe

0:54:31.600 --> 0:54:34.120
<v Speaker 3>were you in when you was in second? I was one,

0:54:34.200 --> 0:54:37.480
<v Speaker 3>I was one, I was one pick behind first. It was.

0:54:39.160 --> 0:54:43.360
<v Speaker 2>Did you still finish? I had a j mac Yeah.

0:54:42.760 --> 0:54:47.360
<v Speaker 3>Honestly, Wait, hold on that that might not be true.

0:54:47.560 --> 0:54:52.120
<v Speaker 2>You know wow you went O for five on a week. Yeah,

0:54:52.880 --> 0:54:55.279
<v Speaker 2>and and.

0:54:55.200 --> 0:54:57.960
<v Speaker 3>Then got two picks. Yeah exactly.

0:54:58.800 --> 0:54:59.040
<v Speaker 2>It was.

0:54:59.320 --> 0:55:02.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah that devastating. We're back next year.

0:55:02.920 --> 0:55:05.360
<v Speaker 2>Uh but uh but yeah.

0:55:05.200 --> 0:55:08.320
<v Speaker 3>I means damn near didn't allow me to make picks

0:55:08.360 --> 0:55:11.200
<v Speaker 3>this time. They actually kind of pushed me over to

0:55:11.280 --> 0:55:12.400
<v Speaker 3>the teasers.

0:55:12.840 --> 0:55:17.279
<v Speaker 2>But no, I no, screw that. Yeah, you just do them.

0:55:20.160 --> 0:55:21.840

<v Speaker 2>and a half or Houston plus eight and a half.

0:55:39.960 --> 0:55:41.919
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna take Houston plus eight and a half.

0:55:42.400 --> 0:55:45.120
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so you're going against me there, Washington plus nine

0:55:45.120 --> 0:55:48.480
<v Speaker 2>and a half. Or Detroit, UH.

0:55:47.640 --> 0:55:49.520
<v Speaker 3>Minus Washington plus the nine and a half.

0:55:50.800 --> 0:55:53.200
<v Speaker 2>All right, we're on the same side there, Rams plus

0:55:53.239 --> 0:55:54.719
<v Speaker 2>six or Philly minus.

0:55:54.360 --> 0:55:58.320
<v Speaker 3>Six Rams plus the six there and then there and then.

0:55:58.400 --> 0:56:01.160
<v Speaker 2>And then you already said Baltimore minus one and a half.

0:56:01.400 --> 0:56:05.600
<v Speaker 2>So we're opposite on Kansas City, Houston and Baltimore Buffalo.

0:56:05.760 --> 0:56:08.040
<v Speaker 2>We're the same on the others. Now, let me hear

0:56:08.080 --> 0:56:11.080
<v Speaker 2>this teaser. Let's see if we can get back on

0:56:11.160 --> 0:56:12.320
<v Speaker 2>the right side of things.

0:56:13.000 --> 0:56:16.680
<v Speaker 3>Three team seven and a half point teaser. Sitting at

0:56:16.719 --> 0:56:20.799
<v Speaker 3>plus one oh five. We're teasing Kansas City down to

0:56:20.880 --> 0:56:23.360
<v Speaker 3>minus one versus Houston.

0:56:24.040 --> 0:56:24.439
<v Speaker 2>Just to win.

0:56:24.680 --> 0:56:27.040

0:56:27.080 --> 0:56:31.279
<v Speaker 3>teasing Washington up to plus seventeen. And then we've got

0:56:31.280 --> 0:56:34.480
<v Speaker 3>the Rams plus fourteen at Philly. And as far as

0:56:34.800 --> 0:56:37.960
<v Speaker 3>h did you know, what do you call it? Baltimore Buffalo?

0:56:38.400 --> 0:56:40.759
<v Speaker 3>Leaving those games out. As far as the teasers, just

0:56:40.760 --> 0:56:42.680
<v Speaker 3>want to enjoy it, it's gonna be a great game.

0:56:43.719 --> 0:56:46.040
<v Speaker 2>All right. I love this teaser. I'll give this teaser

0:56:46.080 --> 0:56:48.960
<v Speaker 2>an a. You get the Chiefs through all the key numbers,

0:56:48.960 --> 0:56:51.680
<v Speaker 2>you get Washington up to seventeen, which I love you

0:56:51.719 --> 0:56:53.799
<v Speaker 2>get the rams up to fourteen, which I love. That's

0:56:53.840 --> 0:56:59.440
<v Speaker 2>a great teaser. They want the touchdown Genie. The Bruisers

0:56:59.480 --> 0:57:03.000
<v Speaker 2>tried to get us Jalen McMillan. I rejected it smartly.

0:57:06.680 --> 0:57:13.040
<v Speaker 2>I do like this week for touchdown Genie. Travis Kelcey.

0:57:14.160 --> 0:57:20.360
<v Speaker 2>Travis Kelcey in the playoffs is a dominant performer. He

0:57:20.640 --> 0:57:25.880
<v Speaker 2>is rested. Went on, you know, did the podcast rounds

0:57:25.920 --> 0:57:28.080
<v Speaker 2>this week made it sound like he does not plan

0:57:28.200 --> 0:57:32.240
<v Speaker 2>to retire, which I love to hear. So Kelsey plus

0:57:32.280 --> 0:57:38.000
<v Speaker 2>one fifty five anytime touchdown? I like that one a lot.

0:57:38.200 --> 0:57:42.400
<v Speaker 2>And the producers have an offer for me, demonte so

0:57:42.480 --> 0:57:42.960
<v Speaker 2>go ahead.

0:57:43.760 --> 0:57:47.320
<v Speaker 3>Uh So, Travis Kelcey to score a touchdown in the

0:57:47.400 --> 0:57:50.960
<v Speaker 3>super Bowl is plus five point fifty right now? Would

0:57:50.960 --> 0:57:51.360
<v Speaker 3>you take that?

0:57:53.680 --> 0:57:57.440
<v Speaker 2>No? I wouldn't. I think that. I think you probably

0:57:57.560 --> 0:58:03.320
<v Speaker 2>can get better if you believe that's going to happen.

0:58:04.040 --> 0:58:08.760
<v Speaker 2>I bet you can get better odds by simply so.

0:58:08.800 --> 0:58:10.680
<v Speaker 2>It's not that I don't think you'll score touch down

0:58:10.720 --> 0:58:12.880
<v Speaker 2>the Super Bowl. It's that if you do the following,

0:58:12.920 --> 0:58:14.880
<v Speaker 2>you're betting the same thing, and I bet you get

0:58:14.920 --> 0:58:19.520
<v Speaker 2>like plus six hundred, which is bet the Chiefs on

0:58:19.560 --> 0:58:23.280
<v Speaker 2>the money line this week, because in order for the

0:58:23.360 --> 0:58:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, they are for Kelsey

0:58:25.720 --> 0:58:27.920
<v Speaker 2>to score touched on the Super Bowl. The Chiefs obviously

0:58:28.000 --> 0:58:29.960
<v Speaker 2>have to win this week and win next week, and

0:58:29.960 --> 0:58:32.560
<v Speaker 2>then Kelsey has score touchdown. So what I would say

0:58:32.600 --> 0:58:36.360
<v Speaker 2>would be the better way to make that bet be

0:58:36.360 --> 0:58:39.000
<v Speaker 2>bet the Chiefs on the money line this week. Then

0:58:39.080 --> 0:58:42.920
<v Speaker 2>take every single dollar that you bet on that and

0:58:42.960 --> 0:58:45.800
<v Speaker 2>that you won, put it on the Chief's money line

0:58:46.000 --> 0:58:49.320
<v Speaker 2>next week. Then take every single dollar that you put

0:58:49.360 --> 0:58:51.680
<v Speaker 2>on that and that you won on Kelsey to score

0:58:51.680 --> 0:58:55.040
<v Speaker 2>a touchdown come the Super Bowl. My guess is those

0:58:55.360 --> 0:58:59.440
<v Speaker 2>three things put together, you end up with like a

0:58:59.480 --> 0:59:04.360
<v Speaker 2>plus six hundred ultimate you know, wager, so to speak.

0:59:04.680 --> 0:59:07.480
<v Speaker 2>So I do like the idea of Kelsey scoring touchdown

0:59:07.520 --> 0:59:11.960
<v Speaker 2>the Super Bowl. I don't like betting it right now

0:59:12.000 --> 0:59:14.320
<v Speaker 2>at plus five fifty because I think you can do better.

0:59:15.160 --> 0:59:17.880
<v Speaker 2>All right, quick break, answer some listener questions. Then I

0:59:17.880 --> 0:59:25.600
<v Speaker 2>got to get out of here. What's right? All right,

0:59:25.640 --> 0:59:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Demon's let's get right to it. Let's answer some listener questions.

0:59:28.720 --> 0:59:33.720
<v Speaker 3>Please, uh Blue, as the sports media. As the sports media,

0:59:33.760 --> 0:59:36.640
<v Speaker 3>I'm budsman. I need you to ask why the NFL

0:59:36.680 --> 0:59:40.600
<v Speaker 3>broadcasts have been talking about running backs, misstackles forrest rather

0:59:40.640 --> 0:59:43.520
<v Speaker 3>than just broken tackles. It's a stupid change.

0:59:43.760 --> 0:59:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I don't like it either, and I don't

0:59:46.480 --> 0:59:49.840
<v Speaker 2>get it. I'm sure there's some like the way that

0:59:49.600 --> 0:59:53.440
<v Speaker 2>that's being graded by the league or maybe it's an

0:59:53.440 --> 0:59:56.120
<v Speaker 2>official stat but I like broken tackles more as well.

0:59:56.160 --> 0:59:57.520
<v Speaker 2>All right, Next one.

0:59:57.920 --> 1:00:01.080
<v Speaker 3>Scott, would the floor be fired or on the hot seat?

1:00:01.120 --> 1:00:04.000
<v Speaker 3>Without the seventh seed? But the old format, the Packers

1:00:04.040 --> 1:00:06.160
<v Speaker 3>would have missed the playoffs three seasons in a row.

1:00:07.600 --> 1:00:10.680
<v Speaker 2>That's an amazing I had never thought. Listen, I love

1:00:10.720 --> 1:00:15.520
<v Speaker 2>Matt Lafleur, but that is a really interesting wrinkle that

1:00:16.200 --> 1:00:19.200
<v Speaker 2>the last year with Rogers they missed the playoffs. Last

1:00:19.240 --> 1:00:21.480
<v Speaker 2>year they were the seventh seed and then won that

1:00:21.600 --> 1:00:24.680
<v Speaker 2>game which really made them everyone love them. And this

1:00:24.800 --> 1:00:28.480
<v Speaker 2>year they were the seventh seed. That's that's interesting. I

1:00:28.680 --> 1:00:32.800
<v Speaker 2>maybe would be on the hot seat if they had

1:00:34.160 --> 1:00:38.080
<v Speaker 2>gone three straight years without making the playoffs. Wow, maybe

1:00:38.160 --> 1:00:39.840
<v Speaker 2>that's interesting. All right?

1:00:39.960 --> 1:00:44.160
<v Speaker 3>Next, Ethan Nick, what's your favorite part of living in NYC?

1:00:44.560 --> 1:00:46.439
<v Speaker 3>If it's not for first things? First? Would you stay

1:00:46.520 --> 1:00:50.360
<v Speaker 3>or would you move somewhere else? Uh?

1:00:50.600 --> 1:00:52.560
<v Speaker 2>My favorite party about living in New York is without

1:00:52.640 --> 1:00:56.280
<v Speaker 2>question the food. It's not like the food by a mile.

1:00:56.560 --> 1:00:59.280
<v Speaker 2>It's the best food city in the world. With respect

1:00:59.280 --> 1:01:02.600
<v Speaker 2>to Tokyo in Paris. It's the best food city in

1:01:02.640 --> 1:01:08.840
<v Speaker 2>the world. I actually watched football with my buddy Maverick

1:01:08.920 --> 1:01:11.760
<v Speaker 2>this weekend and he was trying to argue for Los Angeles'

1:01:11.880 --> 1:01:14.600
<v Speaker 2>food scene, and LA's got a good food scene, but

1:01:14.640 --> 1:01:18.040
<v Speaker 2>it's not New York. I don't think I'll live here

1:01:18.040 --> 1:01:21.000
<v Speaker 2>for the rest of my life. But what I I mean,

1:01:21.040 --> 1:01:25.680
<v Speaker 2>my wife's store is here. I so, if not for

1:01:25.760 --> 1:01:28.080
<v Speaker 2>the TV show, would I live here? I don't know.

1:01:28.600 --> 1:01:31.680
<v Speaker 2>I certainly listen. If not for the TV show, I

1:01:31.720 --> 1:01:34.440
<v Speaker 2>don't think I would spend winters here. I know I

1:01:34.520 --> 1:01:36.200
<v Speaker 2>sound like an old man when I say that, but

1:01:36.280 --> 1:01:43.240
<v Speaker 2>I if not for the the if when Deanna graduates

1:01:43.360 --> 1:01:48.440
<v Speaker 2>high school, I think i'll I think i'd probably split

1:01:48.520 --> 1:01:52.040
<v Speaker 2>time between Vegas and New York, is what I think

1:01:52.080 --> 1:01:55.479
<v Speaker 2>I would do. Uh, And I think maybe I will

1:01:55.480 --> 1:02:00.760
<v Speaker 2>do maybe LA and New York. But I'm not sure

1:02:00.840 --> 1:02:05.720
<v Speaker 2>that's what DeMont no.

1:02:06.320 --> 1:02:10.200
<v Speaker 3>I guess, yeah exactly for seasons, yeah.

1:02:10.080 --> 1:02:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Not not like regularly. Uh. All right, so let's uh oh,

1:02:19.800 --> 1:02:25.040
<v Speaker 2>you guys erased the question read that.

1:02:25.080 --> 1:02:29.120
<v Speaker 3>One read that, David Nick, how excited was your wife's

1:02:29.120 --> 1:02:30.640
<v Speaker 3>when she found out she was going to get to

1:02:30.680 --> 1:02:32.800
<v Speaker 3>throw a mug of water on your face on live TV?

1:02:34.240 --> 1:02:36.840
<v Speaker 2>That wasn't my wife, that's a that's our friend of

1:02:36.880 --> 1:02:42.360
<v Speaker 2>ours named Seanna. Listen, the audience is not obligated to

1:02:42.480 --> 1:02:46.520
<v Speaker 2>know what, uh, my wife looks like. And so I'm

1:02:46.560 --> 1:02:49.120
<v Speaker 2>not bothered. A lot of people thought that, and I

1:02:49.160 --> 1:02:51.479
<v Speaker 2>think they just saw a pretty black woman with big

1:02:54.080 --> 1:02:58.920
<v Speaker 2>the hair. Yeah, but uh yeah, My godmother texts me

1:02:59.080 --> 1:03:02.040
<v Speaker 2>and said that a lot of her friends text her

1:03:02.200 --> 1:03:05.360
<v Speaker 2>saying Nick's wife's on the show, but she knew it

1:03:05.440 --> 1:03:09.280
<v Speaker 2>wasn't to her and like, no, so no, that's our

1:03:09.320 --> 1:03:12.080
<v Speaker 2>friend Sean o'harley. Shout out to her. She did a

1:03:12.080 --> 1:03:14.600
<v Speaker 2>great job with that, all right.

1:03:14.720 --> 1:03:18.480
<v Speaker 3>Next, Noah Nick, if the Eagles win this weekend, will

1:03:18.520 --> 1:03:21.360
<v Speaker 3>this flip fop go down worse than your Warrior Celtics

1:03:21.800 --> 1:03:22.520
<v Speaker 3>Celtics one?

1:03:25.120 --> 1:03:28.919
<v Speaker 2>No, because this one, the Warriors Celtics one, was such

1:03:28.960 --> 1:03:31.320
<v Speaker 2>a weird one, and Draymond got mad and all that.

1:03:33.400 --> 1:03:36.120
<v Speaker 2>My heart was never with the Eagles. Everyone knew that.

1:03:36.240 --> 1:03:37.160
<v Speaker 2>It was pretty clear.

1:03:38.360 --> 1:03:41.960
<v Speaker 3>Next, one Luke question for Nick, is it possible your

1:03:42.000 --> 1:03:45.960
<v Speaker 3>problems with early Lamar actually at Greg Roman problem. We've

1:03:46.000 --> 1:03:50.480
<v Speaker 3>seen him coach unmitigated disaster playoff games with two generational quarterbacks.

1:03:52.000 --> 1:03:56.120
<v Speaker 2>Maybe, I mean, listen, we'll see. The problem with that

1:03:56.320 --> 1:04:00.520
<v Speaker 2>line of thinking is last year's AFC Championship game when

1:04:00.720 --> 1:04:03.560
<v Speaker 2>they scored ten points and Lamar really struggled. Greg Roman

1:04:03.640 --> 1:04:07.240
<v Speaker 2>wasn't there. But maybe listen, if Lamargo's on a great

1:04:07.240 --> 1:04:09.280
<v Speaker 2>playoff run, then maybe you can lay it at Greg

1:04:09.360 --> 1:04:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Roman's feet and we'll see what happens with Harball. I

1:04:12.000 --> 1:04:15.720
<v Speaker 2>cannot wait for this weekend. I said, we'll see what

1:04:15.760 --> 1:04:17.760
<v Speaker 2>happens with Harball. I mean, we'll see what happens with Herbert.

1:04:18.120 --> 1:04:20.960
<v Speaker 2>I cannot wait for this weekend. Should be great. Also,

1:04:21.080 --> 1:04:23.720
<v Speaker 2>by the way, we've had a pretty good run this

1:04:23.800 --> 1:04:26.920
<v Speaker 2>week on the TV show. We had the singers on Monday.

1:04:27.840 --> 1:04:30.640
