1 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:10,320 Speaker 1: It's McKinnon in motion, there's Kelsey. There's a touchdown Kansas 2 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:15,239 Speaker 1: City about third and five another blitz. Hurts takes it 3 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: right up the gun. Touchdown Eagles. And if Jalen Hurts 4 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 1: was touched on that run to the end zone, it 5 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: wasn't much that was well handled. The second down and 6 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: ten good protection eared out found Scantling dropped it. 7 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 2: Patrick's Mahomes is one of the very great quarterbacks in 8 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,920 Speaker 2: the history of the sport, but tonight was another reminder 9 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 2: that even a magnificent single caller cannot do it alone. 10 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 2: He needs help. I'm talking to you, Mark has Veldaz Scantling, 11 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 2: but you're not alone. Mahomes and the Kansas City offense 12 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: once again goes silent in the second half. One of 13 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 2: the truly weird factoids of this twenty twenty three season, 14 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 2: and it allows the Eagles to take a twenty one 15 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: seventeen win in Arrowhead behind two Jalen Hurts touchdowns, including 16 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 2: one in the fourth quarter that put them the head 17 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: four good. The Super Bowl rematch lived up to the hype. 18 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 2: Dan Hans is here with Greg Rosenthal and Mark Sessler 19 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 2: and Mark, Yeah, the Eagles they deserve all the credit 20 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 2: in the world, but what people are gonna be talking 21 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 2: about when they wake up tomorrow is the Chiefs and 22 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 2: their inability to support this great quarterback and the wide 23 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 2: receivers that got them beat If you remember, it feels 24 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 2: like a million years ago, got them beaten Week one 25 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: against the lines with all those drops by Kadarius Tony 26 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: happened again in primetime here and it continues to be 27 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: a major subplot of the season. 28 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 3: Yep, it counted tonight in a big way. 29 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 4: You know, They've been so good at working their way 30 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 4: out of jams, and I came out of the first 31 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 4: half thinking that Andy Reid and his creativity and his 32 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 4: ability to work around some of their weaknesses in a 33 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 4: tough weather game. They ran for like one hundred and 34 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 4: twenty one yards. It looked like they were just going 35 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 4: to dominate both sides of the line, and I think 36 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 4: for me, the floor started to fall in in the 37 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 4: third quarter. It was seventeen to seven. The Chiefs are 38 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 4: in control. They're driving, and there is a pass from 39 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 4: Mahomes to Justin Watson, who's meant to be on a 40 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 4: go route, and he runs sort of a winding hesitant 41 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,519 Speaker 4: path and it goes over. It's well over his head. 42 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 4: It's a bad route by Justin Watson. Had they had 43 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 4: a true deep threat, it would be twenty four to 44 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 4: seven at that point. And I think at that point 45 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 4: the game changes and off they're off and running, and 46 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 4: the MVS thing later and on. It's like they lack 47 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 4: an element to their offense. You had a couple drops 48 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 4: from Travis Kelce in this as well, and it got 49 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 4: put into a huge fuble in a huge fumble, and 50 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 4: it's like the Eagles, you know, this was already an 51 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 4: immense challenge for them, even at home, and to let 52 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 4: them back into the game I think exposed exactly what 53 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 4: you said, they're missing elements in this offense, and it 54 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 4: allowed Philadelphia to come back, get in the comfortable position, 55 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 4: and start to do what you knew they were going 56 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 4: to do with that enough time, which is make a 57 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 4: couple of big plays and turn it around. 58 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 5: Right. The receiver issue for the Eagles, I mean that 59 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 5: the Chiefs this season is getting to like an insane level. 60 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 5: But it's not just the receivers. It's Mahomes a little 61 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 5: bit huge red zone turnover tonight and he's had just 62 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 5: a couple of surprising interceptions. It's pre snap penalties that 63 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 5: they're among the league leaders in that they were second 64 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 5: worst in the NFL and second half scoring this year, 65 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 5: and I'm with you, I was impressed by the first 66 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 5: half game plan and everything like that. I'm losing my voice. 67 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 5: I apologize, guys. But when mvs drops that pass late, 68 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 5: you think it's over. After Patrick Mahomes he gets the 69 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 5: intentional ground and after the quick pressure on fourth and 70 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 5: twenty five, and then Mahomes throws an even better pass 71 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 5: on fourth down and Justin Watson drops that. Watson had 72 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 5: three massive drops. How many times tonight did they go 73 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 5: to Watson in a huge spot? And I'm thinking Justin 74 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 5: Watson was Tom Brady's number six receiver in Tampa and 75 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 5: he's acting like the one here and Travis Kelce had 76 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 5: him at a terrible night. I know he had a 77 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 5: couple catches on that final drive, but he had that fumble. 78 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 5: There was a play that called for him to jump 79 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 5: in the air and he got like about as high 80 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 5: off the ground as Vince Wolfer coud it like it 81 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 5: was like it was a night where I saw those 82 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 5: quotes from Travis Kelce today that said he's thinking about 83 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 5: retirement because of all the you know, the damage done 84 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 5: to his body, and I thought watching him tonight, it's like, 85 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 5: I get it. He's been through a lot, and you 86 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 5: do feel like they're just they're just spackling it together 87 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 5: even though they look like the better team, Dan for 88 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 5: most of the night. That's why I'm not panicking about 89 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 5: this team, because they did out gain the Eagles by 90 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 5: one hundred and they looked like the better team. But 91 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 5: it's just something's funky here. 92 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 2: It's interesting. Yeah, the and I agree with you on Kelsey, 93 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 2: and we talked, We've been talking about it all year, 94 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 2: but what really They won the Super Bowl last year. 95 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 2: They had a top three offense last year, and a 96 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: lot of that was predicated on the greatness of Travis Kelsey, 97 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 2: who had one of the statistically one of the best 98 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 2: seasons ever by a tight end last year. And he 99 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: is hardly the problem. But when a game like this 100 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 2: where he does he's looking, you know, he doesn't look 101 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 2: quite like he has the same juice, and he has 102 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 2: that huge third down drop. He kind of redeems himself 103 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: late in the fourth quarter with the fourth and two 104 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: reception to wipe out his drop, but he also had 105 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: that massive fumble for a team that is averaging and 106 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: this this is a season filled with Wonkee stats, the 107 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: Chiefs averaging less than six points a game in the 108 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 2: second half this year. With Patrick Mahomes and Andrew calling plays. 109 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 5: And a good offensive line and a good offensive. 110 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 2: Line and a solid running back in Isaiah Pachenko, I mean, 111 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 2: they have absolutely compromised their title defense by not putting 112 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 2: a better supporting cast around him. And you could guarantee 113 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 2: the Chiefs are gonna work hard on that in the offseason. 114 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 2: But in the here and now, there's still seven to three. 115 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 2: You still kind of feel good about them jockeying for 116 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 2: the number one seed in the AFC. But you know, 117 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 2: how many of these games now are we going to 118 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 2: see where there's just not enough explosiveness on the offense 119 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 2: even take out the drops. How many times in this 120 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 2: game is it taking Patrick Mahomes three receptions to get 121 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 2: ten yards? You know, like everything is underneath and check 122 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 2: down and he's trying to make his magic. And then 123 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 2: when he finally and I'm watching the game with my 124 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: brother and my dad, he finally is able to really 125 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 2: on cork one and it's that beautiful ball to MVS 126 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: and it wasn't a perfect throw, but it was pretty close. 127 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 2: There's certainly one that should catch. And that's kind of 128 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 2: his that was what he was known for. U's kind 129 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: of what got him run in Green Bay. But you 130 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 2: gotta say the Chiefs management and Andy Reid, like they 131 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 2: brought him in, They brought in MVS and they brought 132 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 2: in these other wide receivers that aren't getting the job done. 133 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 2: So that is just something to keep an eye on 134 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 2: going forward. Is there a way to fix this offense? 135 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 2: Because I don't know if there's a route going forward. 136 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 2: It's now heading towards December. 137 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's it's too late to assume that 138 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 4: can happen. I mean, I kind of it's like we 139 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 4: trust the coaching staff. You trust Mahomes to do something 140 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 4: more than you'd expect with whoever's around him. But to 141 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 4: your point, Dan, they've scored one fourth quarter touchdown all year. 142 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 4: That's a typical for the Chiefs and what you think 143 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 4: of Mahomes. And to your point, Greg, like Watson had 144 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 4: eleven targets tonight and just five catches. It wasn't like 145 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 4: he was, you know, making a lot of production out 146 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 4: of that, and I think it kind of wasted because 147 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 4: along with the first half running game, it's like we 148 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 4: are looking at a really special Steve Spagnolo led Chiefs 149 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 4: defense that held, you know, the Eagles and Jalen Hurts 150 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 4: to twenty passing yards in the first half. They couldn't 151 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 4: do anything on third down. They were sacked five times. 152 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 4: Trent McDuffie's all over the place, Chris Jones is on fire, 153 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 4: and it all vanishes because you'd expect that part of 154 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 4: the ball, Mahomes and the offense to take care of business, 155 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 4: and they flitted it away. And it's just like, it's 156 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 4: such a shame because about ten minutes away from them 157 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 4: having an incredible defense of the Super Bowl rematch, and 158 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 4: it's like we're talking about something else entirely. 159 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 2: Right, Greg AJ Brown AJ Brown one catch for eight yards. 160 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 5: Well, it was so the weather. You know, if you 161 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 5: guys didn't watch this game, if you're listening to it, 162 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 5: you know the next morning in the UK or wherever. 163 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 5: The rain I think was a pretty big part and 164 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 5: why I think the receivers all had terrible nights. It 165 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 5: felt like all the receivers were taking turns selling out 166 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 5: their quarterback Jalen Hurts. His first interception comes on a 167 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 5: play where aj Brown completely changes the route in the 168 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 5: middle of it. He goes deep when Hurts has no 169 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 5: way to see him because a quick pressure gets intercepted 170 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 5: because of aj Brown, who also doesn't make a good 171 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 5: play on a one on one play in the end zone. 172 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 5: That is kind of AJ Brown's bread and butter and 173 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 5: was on a good ball and he just judged it poorly. 174 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 5: So like the receivers were playing poorly all night. But 175 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 5: I do give the Eagles defense or offense a little 176 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 5: bit of credit here because ultimately it felt like they 177 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 5: were out of it and their defense kept getting three 178 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 5: and outs to start that third quarter. Then they put 179 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 5: together a quick strike touchdown drive, and then right when 180 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 5: it's going against them, Travis Kelce, you know, they get 181 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 5: that fumble and what I think was the key play 182 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 5: of the game until the NBS drop fourth and four. 183 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 5: Andy Reid at his forty yard line chooses to punt 184 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 5: it in the fourth quarter, and the football guys don't 185 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 5: like that. Danny. The football guys don't like it, so 186 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 5: they make that bouncing punt go into the end zone. 187 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 5: Two plays later, the Eagles have already made up that 188 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 5: punt yardage. Four plays later, they're in the end zone 189 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 5: and they got the lead. So as great as the 190 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 5: Chiefs defense is, it's still defense. And if you give 191 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 5: the Eagles enough chances over and over, I give the 192 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 5: Eagles some credit. They kept going back to those screen passes. 193 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 5: It was driving me crazy, but finally they hit one 194 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 5: with DeAndre Swift and then DeVante Smith, who was getting 195 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 5: open all night, he gets deep and Jalen Hurts hits 196 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 5: him with the nice goal. 197 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 2: Boy. 198 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 4: I wrote in my notes that on that fourth and 199 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 4: four punt in Eagles territory, I think was the thirty 200 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 4: nine or something like that, like Greg is gonna go 201 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 4: nuts off this, Yeah, netted only nineteen yards and then 202 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 4: that is like that was just like the second or 203 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 4: third it was, and just letting them back into the game. 204 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,839 Speaker 4: And like, I mean, give some credit to the way 205 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 4: that DeAndre Swift ran tonight. And then suddenly you started 206 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 4: to see Hurts do it on the ground too, and 207 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 4: that drive changed everything. It's just like these key mistakes 208 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 4: and that punt decision was so atypical for twenty twenty three. 209 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 4: No matter what school of thought you're in it's like, 210 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 4: be aggressive and attack because you've got the greatest quarterback 211 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 4: in the league and you can make a play here 212 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 4: no matter what's happened. And I thought that was just 213 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 4: kind of like handing a chance back to an aggressive 214 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 4: Eagles offense to say, come do what you can do, 215 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 4: and they did it. 216 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 5: It's why you need good receivers, Dan, because they eat 217 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 5: only one receiver had a great night tonight, but it's 218 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 5: really important to have high level players at that position. 219 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 2: A J. 220 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 5: Brown couldn't get it done, but it was DeVonta Smith. 221 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 5: I think it was ultimately talent that sort of won 222 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 5: out there for the Eagles that saved them. 223 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 3: And they did without Dalla Scottter too. 224 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 2: He made that he made a big catchdown field the 225 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 2: forty one yard game. So I don't know. I mean, yeah, 226 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 2: you could say it was the weather and it certainly 227 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 2: wasn't great, but a lot of these drops, man, you 228 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 2: just you just gotta and it was. It was a great, 229 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 2: great environment. I thought, you know, despite the weather, like 230 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: it felt like a huge game. It felt like a 231 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 2: playoff game. And I have to give some credit. I 232 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 2: don't really like doing this and I don't know why, 233 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 2: but I also don't think I'm alone. I know Keith 234 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: Hanss feels this as well. Oh, Nick Sirianni annoys me 235 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 2: for some reason. It is something about him. He just 236 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: I just feel like a little kind of he's a 237 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: rascal that guy to love him for the same reason 238 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,719 Speaker 2: why I probably annoy you, but I like it. Yeah, 239 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 2: I could see why you would like him. But I 240 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 2: think a lot of people feel the same way with 241 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 2: some of his history. Onics on the sidewalkline, and he's 242 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 2: just got that face. He's got one of those faces. 243 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 2: But having there but oh whatever, a lot of everybody's 244 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 2: having fun. But something about him, you know, he's just 245 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 2: a little tweaker. He's a little tweaker, is what he is. 246 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: But I will say this, you got to give him 247 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 2: credit because you know this is not and you know, 248 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 2: if MVS makes that catch whatever, maybe it's a different story. 249 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 2: It probably is. 250 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 5: Maybe he goes go down and score. By the way the. 251 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,559 Speaker 2: Chiefs, I think the Chiefs would have won the game. 252 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 2: I think there was that big a drop by m VS. 253 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: One that can define seasons. But he lost his offensive 254 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 2: coordinator Shansneich, and he lost his defensive coordinator Gan and 255 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 2: and this team is nine and one, and Siriani obviously 256 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 2: has a good eye for talent for his coaching staff, 257 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 2: and he knows what he's doing. And I don't know 258 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 2: if he gets enough credit maybe because everybody, like except 259 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 2: for great kind of agrees and he's just kind of annoying. 260 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 2: You just want to just something just like swat him sometimes. 261 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: But he is very good at this, and that's part 262 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 2: of their success as well. They just have a very 263 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 2: strong team that's built for these crucible type games and moments. 264 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 2: And you saw it again tonight. 265 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 4: That I thought that Sirianni, though, is the sort of 266 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 4: a lightning rod who taught taught us a lesson that 267 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 4: if you come in as a coach and your own 268 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 4: social media staff does you dirty by making you look 269 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 4: like a fool, and when you come prancing around the 270 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 4: building on that opening sort of tour, and then you 271 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 4: turn out to be a great coach who you're right, 272 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 4: they lost two good coordinators who look like good coaches themselves. 273 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 4: That's like a talent drain, and Sirianni's kept it together. 274 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,119 Speaker 3: And I like Sirianni. 275 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 4: I might be in the middle of you two, but 276 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 4: I kind of like I understand like the tears and 277 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 4: all that stuff and some of the looks on the sideline, 278 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 4: But like, I think he fits the Eagles and they 279 00:13:58,880 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 4: get out. 280 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 5: Of the man for crowd during the national anthem. 281 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 3: Oh no, he definitely, he definitely fits that. 282 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: He definitely fits Philadelphia. I'll say that. Yeah, I'll leave 283 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 2: it there. 284 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 5: He's a little he's a little extra. I definitely can mark. 285 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 2: Don't just want to give him a little slap though, 286 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 2: just a little wit something. 287 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 4: So I just think he's grown on me because like 288 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 4: something about the like the Eagles used to kind of 289 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 4: annoy me in general. I couldn't quite place it. And 290 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 4: he's made me a fan of them because of kind 291 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 4: of what they did tonight to get out of the 292 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 4: jams they were in. And he comes up with solutions. Well, 293 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 4: but I know what you're saying. 294 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 5: They're really showing that they because it's so hard to 295 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 5: come back from, you know, making the Super Bowl and 296 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 5: losing it and to come back and be nine and 297 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 5: one despite not always playing their best, and this gave 298 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 5: that feeling too. They got out gained by one hundred yards. 299 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 5: But they've been in a lot of different situations this year. 300 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 5: They were down big to the commander. I know it's 301 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 5: the Commanders, but they were down big to the Commanders 302 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 5: a couple of times. Won those games. They've shown they can. 303 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 5: They're really good at front runners, but they're also good 304 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 5: in coming from behind. This was a game and if 305 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 5: I was a Chiefs fan, I actually do take a 306 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 5: lot of positives out of this game. I think they 307 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 5: won the line of scrimmage for the most part on 308 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,359 Speaker 5: both sides of the ball against Philadelphia. It's very impressive, 309 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 5: like Mahomes was protected well. You mentioned the rushing yards 310 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 5: in the first half. It did dry up a little bit, Mark, 311 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 5: but it was partly because they went away from the run. 312 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 5: I was impressed and I thought it was telling. Andy 313 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 5: Reid went into the bye week. Everyone's what's he gonna 314 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 5: do when he comes out of the by. He's the 315 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 5: magician coming out of the by, and kind of what 316 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 5: he did was like, actually, we can run the ball. 317 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,479 Speaker 5: We have no explosive plays. We're just gonna be methodical 318 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 5: and count on our defense and we're gonna run the ball. 319 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 5: And they did that very well, and for them to 320 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 5: get a lot more pressure on Hurts. They had five 321 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 5: sacks in the first half. They won that matchup. Chris 322 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 5: Jones was awesome for the most part. I know they 323 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 5: ended up losing this game, but those are pretty good 324 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 5: underlying signs that actually this Chiefs team up front probably 325 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 5: as the best O line D line combination they've ever had, 326 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 5: and maybe the best O line D line combination in 327 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 5: the entire NFL. Plus Patrick Mahomes, that's still a lot 328 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 5: to work with. Even yeah, you got some issues. 329 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 4: I'm with you, and that was on display tonight, But 330 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 4: I would also say that it's not like untrue what 331 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 4: we talked about before, like you've got issues at wide 332 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 4: receiver and we're not sure we're rat with Travis Kelce, 333 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 4: Like it leaves Mahomes on an island, and you're not 334 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 4: gonna win every one of these matchups different ways. Spag 335 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 4: Nola is one of the reasons they had five sacks too. 336 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 4: It's like they in that first half, like, I mean, 337 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 4: he's scheming them up so well, and like other teams 338 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 4: can't do that against the Eagles. 339 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 3: But I don't know, ball on. 340 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 5: Third and short, they weren't doing these crazy plays. They 341 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 5: were just handing the ball off and they were gaining 342 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 5: big yards. I was like, this is this is progress. 343 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, next week the bill. The Eagles get the Bills 344 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 2: at home on Sunday and the Chiefs are in Vegas 345 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 2: for the Raiders. So there you go. And I was 346 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: thinking now that I'm thinking about a little bit more. Mark. 347 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 2: Think of it like a long leather glove, right, and 348 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 2: you take it off finger by finger, and then you're 349 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 2: holding it by like kind of the base of it, 350 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 2: and you're just like whack him in the face and 351 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 2: you go just stop it. 352 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 4: Oh, like an old timey woman's like nineteen forty smack 353 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 4: with her glove, like in the rain. 354 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 2: Yes, and it's just like, just stop it. 355 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 5: I don't understand what people want out of their coaches. 356 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 5: I mean, if they're just standing there and they're boring, 357 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 5: they're too boring. He's out there living like he's living 358 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 5: his life. He's leaving it all out there on the field. 359 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 5: I like it. 360 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 3: There could be some are envy going on here too. 361 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 5: I didn't know that it's controversial to think Nick Sirianni 362 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 5: is a good entertainment. 363 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 2: You're siding with a mass agitator. Greg. I totally get why. 364 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 5: I will admit he is almost the exact example of 365 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 5: the type of guy that like, if he's if he's 366 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 5: your coach, you love him. If he's on your team, 367 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 5: you love him. And if not, maybe you're If you're 368 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 5: against him, he would drive you crazy. Against I'm a closet. 369 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 5: So I enjoyed them quite a bit. 370 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 2: All right, there you go, great game. Wouldn't mind seeing 371 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,239 Speaker 2: them play again in February. How about that? Oh, what's that? 372 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 5: We had a we had a lockoff for this for tonight. 373 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 2: We had a chief shaking his head. That's not a 374 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 2: good sign. 375 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 5: We had a chief pick for Mark and the Cincinnati 376 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 5: Zoo staying uh, staying on Greg's heels. 377 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 2: Here they lock up the Eagles, man, I can't remember, 378 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 2: and that's a bad beat. Mark. Just know that I 379 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 2: probably would have won my fantasy matchup of mvs. Catches 380 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 2: that ball. So we're both a little annoyed about how 381 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 2: the end of that game played out. But but I 382 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 2: gotta say the west Brothers and and uh with the 383 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 2: zoo keeper Uh, Nick Westling. Greg is run away with 384 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 2: this thing. But at the same time, I can't remember 385 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: the last time in the Westling Brothers loss, I said, 386 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 2: aren't they on a mighty streak of their own? 387 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 5: I'm not running away, they're they're right there, two back 388 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 5: with with ten to play or whatever that's not. 389 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 2: Would that be delicious if that came him down to 390 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 2: the that would be last couple of weeks. 391 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 3: It'd be good for the show. 392 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 4: And I like, I was thinking about this tonight as 393 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 4: I was watching the Chiefs fade off to the distance 394 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 4: along with my lock, Like I do take consolation. Do 395 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 4: you remember back in twenty sixteen? Of course you will. 396 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 4: You remember how fourth place turned out and who got 397 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 4: fourth place? 398 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 3: That you remember. I'm sorry, I don't know exactly exactly. 399 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 2: No one. 400 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 4: No one is like in nine. No one is going 401 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,360 Speaker 4: to remember my fate in this contest. 402 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 2: I can. 403 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 4: I can walk around and Greg, I know that you 404 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 4: can drive to the local Wendy's with your lock trophy 405 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 4: and they're going to give you all your food at 406 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 4: half price. I'm sure that's how it works. But you know, 407 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 4: outside of our little bubble, and I do enjoy I'm sure. 408 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 4: I'm just you know, I'm hitting out, but like I'm 409 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 4: getting my butt kicked in the Locks tournament, and I'm 410 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 4: you know, I'm trying. 411 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 3: To look at it from a large like a larger view. 412 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 2: It's it has no meaning ong night, my Tannebaum could 413 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: like go to the friendlies in Western mass and talk 414 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 2: about how amazing it is with Greg's lock trophy. 415 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 5: I guess I'm losing my touch because I was I 416 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,719 Speaker 5: was straight root and hard for the Eagles tonight. If 417 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,199 Speaker 5: I had, if I had known, I guess that it 418 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 5: was nixt team, maybe it would have changed my mind. 419 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 2: Oh what a what a showdown that one. 420 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,160 Speaker 5: I'm always I'm always always pro Eagles. What a team. 421 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 2: And I saw Nick did did do a little trash 422 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 2: talk in that In that thread, it looks like Mark, 423 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 2: I don't know. 424 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 4: Well, no so and I and I you know, it's 425 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,239 Speaker 4: it's good to be competitive. But like the literally the 426 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 4: minute the game ended, he sent like three lock, like 427 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 4: you know icons. 428 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 3: I was like, all right, you had that thing planned 429 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 3: for like twenty minutes. I get it. But that's fine. 430 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 3: And I are not very confrontational with each other. I 431 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 3: mean we're passive. 432 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 5: Well, it's sounding like you got under your skin just 433 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 5: like just a little. 434 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 2: I was little. 435 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 4: I was ended tonight, like any chance of me doing 436 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 4: anything ended tonight. 437 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 2: I think there's kind of like the the lock competition. 438 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 2: Now as we headed, you know, deeper into the second half. 439 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 2: It's like two Siriani's going off against each other, only 440 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 2: one could be on top at the end. 441 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 5: There are no winners in that competition. I do want 442 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 5: to say before we moved totally off this game, I 443 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 5: actually think the Chiefs have as good or better chance 444 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 5: to get the one seed than the Eagles. Despite this loss, 445 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 5: this was a bigger win I think for the Eagles. 446 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 5: It was a bigger game I think for the Eagles 447 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 5: than it would have been for the Chiefs just because 448 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 5: of the schedules. That's it. I mean, they've survived the 449 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 5: start of this gauntlet by beating Dallas and by beating 450 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 5: Kansas City. But it remains very hard that Detroit's only 451 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 5: one game back. San Francisco's hanging around, Dallas is hanging 452 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 5: around in Kansas City schedule. The rest of the season 453 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 5: is Cupcake City. The only tough game really is is 454 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 5: home for Buffalo, which is not a game that you 455 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 5: know that they're going to be underdogs or anything. You 456 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 5: know they're playing at the Chargers week eighteen. Everyone's gonna 457 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 5: have their bags packed for the Chargers by that point, 458 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 5: Like I could see that the Chiefs either winning now 459 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 5: or only having four losses, and I know they're not 460 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 5: the one seed tonight. It's the Ravens technically, but the 461 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 5: Chiefs have a very good chance to be the ones. 462 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 2: Looks like you're coming around on my take on the 463 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 2: podcast last week. Well, there's no good teams in the FC. 464 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 2: So this Chiefs team with literally zero fireworks that averages 465 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 2: five points a game in the second half, Yeah, they 466 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 2: could get the one seed. 467 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 5: They have a great defense, a great head coach, a 468 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 5: great quarterback in a great offensive line. So yes they 469 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 5: have they have one pretty big weakness, you know, scoring 470 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 5: points in the second. 471 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 2: But then. 472 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 3: Your Ragions will still win the Super Bowl as a 473 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 3: second seed. 474 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 5: Then when you look back at teams that win the 475 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 5: Super Bowl, they're usually like thirteen and four. Sometimes they're 476 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 5: twelve and five. You know, it's like they got to 477 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 5: lose some games for that to happen. You know, it happens. 478 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 2: All right, let's take a break and when we come back, 479 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 2: we'll hit the news and then get on out of here. 480 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 2: All right, we are back. All right, Let's see, let's see, 481 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 2: let's see, let's see, let's see. Let's hit some news, 482 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 2: starting with my more abund New York Jets who are 483 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 2: having historically poor offensive season, and on Monday, they finally 484 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 2: made the move that a lot of Jets fans have 485 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 2: been asking for for weeks and weeks. Zach Wilson is 486 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 2: on the bench once more, not just demoted to second string. 487 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 2: He is now third on the depth chart, behind Tim Boyle, 488 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,439 Speaker 2: who will start on Friday against the Dolphins in the 489 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 2: Black Friday Game at Medlife Stadium, and Trevor Simeon who 490 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 2: had been signed from the practice squad and he will 491 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 2: be the backup. So Wilson is the emergency quarterback and 492 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 2: quite possibly, and you know, this guy's got more lives 493 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 2: than a cat, but quite possibly he has played his 494 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 2: last game as a Jet. Here is Robert Sala talking 495 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 2: about the draft process and what they might have done 496 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 2: different back in one. 497 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 1: Robert, what do you believe you guys could have done 498 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 1: differently during the draft process when evaluating the quarterback position? 499 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,479 Speaker 2: You know what, I actually, I've got my thoughts. I've 500 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 2: shared him, but I'm not going to get into it 501 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 2: here with you guys. Is that is a very strange, strange, 502 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 2: strange answer from Sala, who you know, has been a 503 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 2: little inconsistent around this quarterback quite frankly, he went from 504 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,439 Speaker 2: supporting him deeply and fully as recently as you know 505 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 2: about seven days ago to now with kind of that 506 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 2: weird non answer and using language that teams tend to 507 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 2: use when they've given up on a QB, like I 508 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: think he can be a good player, you know, insinuating 509 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 2: wherever that may be, but it won't be here. So 510 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 2: that is a move that Jets had to make. I 511 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 2: was raging guys about I don't know if I could 512 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 2: watch another game and everyone should be fired if that 513 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 2: guy is even on the field in the second half 514 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 2: on against the Bills. So they did bench him in 515 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 2: that game, and now they move him out of the picture. 516 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 2: It's just all too little, too late, in my opinion. 517 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,199 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think, well, you've clearly given up on him 518 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 5: when he's the third quarterback behind Tim Boyle and Trevor Simeon. 519 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 5: That's pretty dark. I mean, there's a non zero chance 520 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 5: Zach Wilson never starts a game in the NFL again. 521 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 5: I mean there's a non zero chance he's out of 522 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 5: the league in two or three years. It happened to 523 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 5: Blake Bortles, another top five pick. He'll get another chance 524 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 5: on another team. Certainly, but it'd be a surprise if 525 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 5: he ever played for the Jets again. And and part 526 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 5: of the issue is that it's Tim Boyle next or 527 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 5: it's Simeon who is only on the team because he 528 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 5: didn't make the Bengals, And like Tim Boyle is one 529 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 5: of Aaron Rodgers' best friends, it's hard not to just 530 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 5: find it bizarre that one of Aaron Rodgers' best friends is, 531 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 5: you know, running playing quarterback with Aaron Rodgers' favorite play 532 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 5: caller calling the plays. It's just like it's a little much. 533 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 4: This is another example of when in the press conference 534 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 4: the coach starts to use words and speak in a tone. 535 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 4: I mean, there's clear frustration, like you're basically back where 536 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 4: you were a year ago with Zach Wilson, and organizationally, 537 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 4: like I think a more like let's just take a 538 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 4: fresh look at what we're doing. And we're bringing in 539 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers. There's an opportunity to get us strong backup. 540 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 4: And they spoke so strongly about sticking up for Zach 541 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 4: Wilson and what he could be behind Aaron Rodgers. He's 542 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 4: gonna sit there, you know, danger free for two years 543 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 4: and learn that's cool, But that's not how most of 544 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 4: these seasons work for most of these teams. And I 545 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 4: feel when I hear Sala speak that, like Joe Douglas 546 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 4: and Sala and filling the blank quarterback, Aaron Rodgers and 547 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 4: ownership are just not on the same page. And Sala's 548 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 4: the one having to take it up there verbally. Now 549 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 4: I know he's also been inconsistent, but like he just 550 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 4: sounds like unempowered, and I don't I just I think 551 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 4: also he's looking at a quarterback that very likely could 552 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 4: cost a lot of people in that organization jobs very soon. 553 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 2: I'll leave it here, and this is to Woody and 554 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 2: Douglas and Tasala and Hackett, and even a little bit 555 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 2: to Aaron Rodgers. I'll quote the joker, you get what 556 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 2: you deserve, and now let's see if you get to 557 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 2: keep your job at the end of the season, because 558 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 2: they could get a lot worse before it gets better. 559 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 2: Moving on, the San Francisco forty nine Ers have lost 560 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 2: a big piece. Also, my guy you may return remember 561 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 2: from last year, Telenoa Hufanga is out for the year 562 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 2: with a torn acl on his right knee. Suffered the 563 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 2: injury against the Bucks on Sunday, and that is a 564 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 2: big piece of their secondary Greg that goes to the 565 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 2: wayside until twenty twenty four, So a challenge for San 566 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 2: Francisco's defense. 567 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought he made progress this year too. Last year, 568 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 5: I know, he was a second team All Pro, but 569 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,719 Speaker 5: there were a lot of big time plays and he 570 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 5: was giving up a lot of big time plays. And 571 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 5: this year he was more consistent and he still was 572 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 5: making the big play. So he just has a physical 573 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 5: edge back there. It's really the weakest part of their team, 574 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 5: I would say in general, is their secondary, and so 575 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 5: that's losing a big part of it. They drafted a guy, 576 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 5: Gyre Brown, I think it was the second round. It 577 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 5: was a surprise pick. He came in on Sunday and 578 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 5: made some plays. Everyone was excited about him. So that's 579 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,120 Speaker 5: one where they're drafting. Their development will have to be 580 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 5: spot on in the early returns at least. How he 581 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 5: played Sunday, we're pretty good. 582 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 3: And we talked like about how the Bucks. 583 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 4: You know, clearly it was like would have been a 584 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 4: lot for them to come back and take a lead 585 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 4: in that game, but they kept knocking on the door 586 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,239 Speaker 4: and they were right down by the end. 587 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 2: Zone. 588 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 4: There was a tip pass and Jyra Brown picked it off, 589 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 4: and it's like, all right, there's a start. 590 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:24,479 Speaker 3: There, and I think there's some promise with him. 591 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 4: But like the Niners, I trust to like lose guys 592 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 4: and like find a way back in. 593 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 5: Dan, I have a point of correction. You go ahead, 594 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 5: third round pick, and we strive to be accurate here. 595 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 2: That's very important. I would give you a really touchy 596 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 2: high five if I was with you right now. Joey 597 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 2: Bosa of the Chargers limped off the field against the 598 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 2: Packers on Sunday with a foot injury. He got carded. 599 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 2: He had the towel in his face and it all 600 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 2: looked very bad and it's not good. Not maybe end 601 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 2: of the season bad, but it could be. Joey Bosa 602 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 2: has a right footspra which sounds awfully close that dreaded Harlot, 603 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 2: that fluozy, that scorpion woman Liz Frank. But I'm not 604 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 2: seeing that as a term connected to this injury. But 605 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 2: it's a footsprain, so he's likely headed to injured reserve, 606 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 2: Brandon Staley said Monday, which would put him out at 607 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 2: least the next four games, and it will be determined 608 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 2: Staley said, if Bosa plays again this season, Greg, this 609 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: has been part of the Joey Bosa experience, and you 610 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 2: know it's gonna be for whether it's the Chargers or 611 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 2: whomever else that's gonna give him a massive contract because 612 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 2: he's an elite player when it comes to doing what 613 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 2: he does best and getting to the quarterback. But you know, 614 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 2: this is a tough injury for a Chargers defense that 615 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 2: already stinks, and it really is frustrating because pos has 616 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 2: missed a lot of time in his career. 617 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I went and did the numbers randomly earlier this 618 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,719 Speaker 5: year because they started thinking about it. This is his 619 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 5: ninth season in This will be the sixth time in 620 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 5: nine seasons I believe that he failed to top what's 621 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 5: the number four hundred, five hundred and fifty snaps, which 622 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 5: would consider like a part time player. If you play 623 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 5: half the snaps, it's about five five hundred. So he 624 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 5: has been less than a part time player, less than 625 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 5: half the snaps in six of his nine seasons. He 626 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 5: he's had a great theoretical career. It would you feel 627 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 5: for it for him, and you certainly feel for the Chargers. 628 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 5: He gave him all that money, but he really hasn't 629 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 5: had the career kind of that's in your head that 630 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 5: that you think that he had, because he just he 631 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 5: just hasn't been on the field enough. And I do 632 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 5: suspect that they'll move on from him in the offseason. 633 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 3: Well, and we don't know who who who like they 634 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 3: is at this point too, it's Tlesco. 635 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 5: He's well, yeah, right, and I'm just saying he's been 636 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 5: there forever. 637 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 4: He's got as probably safe but like it's is he 638 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 4: was there partially or this time around now for Brandon 639 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 4: Stilly's defense as well. He's got a thirty six million 640 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 4: dollar cap hit next year and he's not that easy 641 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 4: to trade unless you to take him some dead money. 642 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 3: But we'll see, he's got zero guaranteed. 643 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 5: This is crazy. It's crazy that like three seasons in 644 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 5: a nine season career where he really stayed healthy. 645 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 2: Other injury news better injury news. The Ravens told reporters 646 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 2: on Sunday that they thought Mark Andrews the season was 647 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 2: over after the ankle injury that he suffered against the 648 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 2: Bengal and that Bengals it was a Thursday injury excuse me. 649 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 2: In their thirty four to twenty win. Harbaugh gave a 650 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 2: surprise update on the tight end Monday, saying there's a 651 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 2: quote outside chance they see him again. Let's hear from John. 652 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 6: Nothing's completely definitive yet. But my understanding is in talking 653 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 6: with our trainer and the doctors is that it wasn't 654 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 6: as bad as initially feared right after the game. That 655 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 6: there is there is the type of damage that's done 656 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 6: sometimes and that kind of an action what happens to 657 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 6: the ankle, but it wasn't as bad as it could 658 00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 6: have been. It's a little cleaner than they thought based 659 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 6: on the MRI. He's gonna be involved with doctor Anderson 660 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 6: down there in Carolina Charlotte here next few days and 661 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 6: that we'll know more. But there might be an outside 662 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 6: chance you could get back at some point in time. 663 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 6: So we'll just have to see how that goes on. 664 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 6: And I want to say that's definitive by stretch, but 665 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 6: there is some optimism. 666 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 2: Mark. Does this take too strong? The Ravens cannot win 667 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl without Mark Andrews on the field. 668 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 4: No, I think he's the north Star. But I also 669 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 4: the minute I heard this news, I had a vision 670 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 4: of like, we're gonna be tracking this for weeks and 671 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 4: like he will suit up and appear in time for 672 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 4: like the crucial, you know, final game of the regular 673 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 4: season or their playoff game. I can see that already, 674 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 4: and I have another you know, I have a suspicion. 675 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 4: You know how people have questioned if Shakespeare was actually 676 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 4: like maybe a collection of twelve to fifteen writers, you know, 677 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 4: he was writing like massive. 678 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 3: Plays, like every week. 679 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 4: Doctor Andrews, I'm convinced is just like a legal firm 680 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 4: of like twenty two doctors that do surgeries every week. 681 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 3: Go back. 682 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 4: I don't know how many years, how many surgeries does 683 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 4: this guy do. He's the busiest guy in the league. 684 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 4: Everyone goes to him. I wouldn't be convinced that there 685 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 4: were if it was seven to eight people all, you know, 686 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 4: collecting massive paychecks. 687 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 5: Well, ever since Neil Architroge or whatever, el Archiro. 688 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: His name is Neil Ela Troch okay. 689 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 5: Bro next, So you got it. I've never said that 690 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 5: name before, and I realized I had no idea how 691 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 5: to say it. But I've just seen it. Those guys 692 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 5: they hate each other. They see each other at the 693 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 5: golf course and he's like Andrews, that guy he's old 694 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 5: tro Elatroje is bringing in the new the new blood 695 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 5: I did Tom Brady's knee. 696 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 2: Tough sitch. When those guys are battling out, driving up 697 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 2: past each other and they're like porsches. 698 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 5: The guys, they are likely they'll be fine in the meeting. 699 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 2: Great. Who do the Seahawks get on Thursday Thanksgiving? 700 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 5: They got the forty nine ers Thursday night. 701 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 2: All right, that's a tough one, Ovs. And they expect 702 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 2: Gino Smith, who banged up his elbow in the loss 703 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 2: of the Rams, to be on the field. So that's 704 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 2: a good thing. And I'm going to double this one up. Mark, 705 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 2: who's the backup quarterback of the Browns presently. 706 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 4: Well, it sounds like it's going to be Joe Flacco 707 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 4: very soon and maybe PJ. Walker hits the skids behind dtr. 708 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 2: Right right now, technically it's PJ Walker, But Joe Flacco, 709 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 2: old stone Pony himself has Stone age Pony himself has 710 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 2: signed with the Cleveland practice squad. You know, we've been 711 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 2: covering Joe Flacco for a long time, but I will 712 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 2: tell you this, Joe Flacco has got a special skill 713 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 2: at this point in his career, and it is getting 714 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 2: hit in the pocket and fumbling the ball. So I hope, Mark, 715 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 2: for your sake, we do not see Joe Flacco on 716 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 2: the field in meaningful snaps, because that man is a 717 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 2: human fumble machine. 718 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 4: I do love that when the Browns tweeted it out, 719 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 4: they went out of their way to the image of 720 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 4: Joe Flacco in a Jets jersey. There's no way they're 721 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 4: going to tweet out Flacco. And he was like he 722 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 4: had outside of Big Ben. He had the greatest quarterbacks 723 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 4: starting record against the Browns of anyone ever in the 724 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 4: modern times. And it just seems like an ill fit 725 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 4: to me. And he's also roughly fifty six years old, 726 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 4: so we'll see how that goes. 727 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 2: Can I know, Can I just throw out there, Mark, 728 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 2: you may remember, you may not. Joe Flacco one of 729 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 2: the most unlikely Jet wins and team history one to 730 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 2: zero against the Cleveland Browns as a New York Jet 731 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:25,720 Speaker 2: last season. 732 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 4: I guess you bring him in for his information about 733 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 4: what he can do for the Browns. From the inside, 734 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:32,879 Speaker 4: I'm not sure what's happening here. 735 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:37,320 Speaker 5: They do play the Jets later in a potential DTR 736 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 5: versus Tim Boyle Primetime showdown bench me. I honestly would 737 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 5: not be surprised if it's Joe Flacco by then, because 738 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 5: A it's just hard to stay healthy as a quarterback 739 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 5: and so we don't know if the Browns will be 740 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 5: able to stay healthy, and b just depending on how 741 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 5: it goes man this offense that they're putting together with DTR, 742 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 5: it's just they're starting from the ground floor and they're 743 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 5: they're putting different and at some point they just might 744 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 5: want to see how it looks with someone with experience. 745 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 5: It just wouldn't shock you if at some point Joe 746 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 5: Flacco plays for them. But I'm with you, I'd rather 747 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 5: just see Ditiargo. 748 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 2: The Patriots will decide they're starting in quarterback in week 749 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 2: twelve and perhaps beyond after sharing reps in practice this week. 750 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 2: That is depressing between Belly Zappi and of course Mac Jones, 751 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 2: unless there's another guy in the mix. Greg, you can 752 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 2: help me out. 753 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 5: With that there is. I actually think Will Greer I 754 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 5: would put money on Will Gear starting games this season. 755 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,439 Speaker 5: Maybe not this week, but this season. 756 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 2: Will Greer and Tim Boyle making up fifty percent of 757 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 2: the AFC's quarterbacks. That's rough. And finally, the NFL has 758 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 2: suspended fourteen year veteran. That's unbelievable. Fourteen years. Kareem Jackson's 759 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 2: been smoking guys on the field, and he was suspended 760 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,959 Speaker 2: without pay four games for repeated violations of player Safe 761 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 2: Your Rules, the result of a pretty vicious hit on 762 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 2: Josh Dobbs in Denver's twenty one to twenty win on Sunday, Mark, 763 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 2: you were saying to me that real man football is missing, 764 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 2: and and you celebrate hits like that. That's what you 765 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 2: said to me privately. Do you still believe that now 766 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,240 Speaker 2: that we're sharing conversation in public? 767 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 3: Sure? 768 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 4: Absolutely? Why would I back down from that take? That 769 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 4: is so honest for me. He just came back from 770 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:32,760 Speaker 4: a suspension, just appealed like another four literal he suspended. 771 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 5: Again, suspended, played two games. It's like Mark's always like, hey, 772 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 5: why don't you just put them in a skirt. It's 773 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 5: like that a little message, you know. 774 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 2: How about a little flag football. 775 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 4: At this point, I thought our text threads were private, 776 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 4: but here they are just getting vertal on. 777 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 5: People were going wild on that Fletcher Cox hit on 778 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 5: Patrick Mahomes on that last drive, which which set up 779 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 5: that MBS hit which was. It was borderline, but I 780 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 5: wasn't gonna go crazy about it. 781 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 2: All right. And finally before we say goodbye, because it's absurd. 782 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 2: You know, I grew up on the East Coast, but 783 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 2: you know, it's been a long time since I've been 784 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 2: watching prime time on the East Coast. And we're taping 785 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 2: this at twelve eighteen in the morning. You have a 786 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 2: flight to catch in the morning. 787 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 5: Actually, I want to go back to the whole Will 788 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 5: Grier Zappi mac Jones thing for a while because what 789 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,800 Speaker 5: it really says about the Patriots dynasty that. 790 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 2: Okay, Mark, you know, the Browns had another stirring win 791 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 2: in week eleven, and they are they are charging hard 792 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 2: in the AFC, and they want to let people know, 793 00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 2: the people who doubt them know, Hey, we might be 794 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: down our star running back, we might be without our quarterback, 795 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 2: but we're still here and they're going to stick it 796 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 2: to the people who doubted them, people like Eric this 797 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 2: bizarre Cess Spice combination. I mean, you got to check 798 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 2: out the YouTube. You've got to check out the YouTube. 799 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 2: But they did the old thing with the sent out 800 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 2: the tweet. I'm not being we can't see what the 801 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 2: rounds tweet is based on what we're seeing around. But no, 802 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,720 Speaker 2: that was the whole thing, the old, the old screen 803 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 2: grab of all the game preview picks, and there it is, 804 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:16,879 Speaker 2: Cess Spike Sesspike is picking a sixteen thirteen Steelers win, 805 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 2: and it just you know, Mark, I don't even know 806 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 2: what else to say, but I'll throw it to you. 807 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 4: I largely handed the operation over to the extremely knowledgeable 808 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 4: spice Rack in this case. You know, I let him 809 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,760 Speaker 4: make some of you know, if he if he feels strongly, 810 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with it. 811 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 3: I would say, that's. 812 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,479 Speaker 5: All right there, Brandon Staley, your name's on it. Let's 813 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 5: take no it is. 814 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 4: But I would say that's a bad job by the 815 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 4: by the Browns with that tweet, because I get those 816 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,399 Speaker 4: things all the time. It's like when everyone picked Team 817 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 4: A to win. I mean, I'm a part of that. 818 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 2: Crew that about. 819 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 3: Half the people picked Cleveland though. 820 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't understand it, but Brown social media needs 821 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 5: to work on it.
