Then it 18 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: wasn't There is so much to talk about. Matt Hasselbeck's 19 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: about four minutes out. It was not a great day 20 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: for are one of us with our picks. I think 21 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 1: we both have the ravens tonight we do. 22 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 3: I need to hear little more positivity for Jalen Hurts. 23 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 4: You know how there's the Magnificent seven Stocks, right, the 24 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:11,639 Speaker 4: tech Stocks. 25 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 3: There needs to be a super six for quarterbacks because 26 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 3: I think Herbert and Hurts have played their way in. 27 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 4: Colin, come on, they've been spectacular. 28 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 2: On maybe Baker Mayfield. 29 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, So on a Monday Colin Wright Colin wrong, 30 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: And here. 31 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 2: We go where Colin was right. 32 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh world's best football coach. Three and zero pulling 33 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: away in the AFC West. The Chargers run a short week. 34 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 1: They fumbled the opening kickoff, they lost Nausee Harris Khalil 35 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: Max not playing. But Harbaugh has in his career found 36 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: ways to win uglyague games. And you got to give 37 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: this team credit. Quintin Johnson look like a bust at 38 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: wide receiver. Harbaugh's like, nope, we're gonna feed him the ball. 39 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: We're gonna throw it to him half a dozen times deep. 40 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: And the Chargers win a game because they have the 41 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: greatest football coach of all time. 42 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: Where Colin was wrong. 43 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: The Packers led ten to nothing in the fourth and 44 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: still lost to Cleveland. They were my number one team 45 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: in the league. What was weird is they had extra 46 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 1: time to prep because they played on Thursday Night football, 47 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: and the offense was still disjointed. Jordan Love got hit 48 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: hard too many times. They just they didn't have a 49 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: lot of energy. They came out flat and it's the 50 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: National Football League. Jordan Love didn't have a lot of time. 51 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: They didn't get a touchdown until late third quarter. I 52 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: thought this was a team without a major flaw, and 53 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: maybe it's just energy because they lacked it against Cleveland 54 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: on the road. 55 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 2: Where Colin was right. 56 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: I've said this about Kyle Shanahan. I predicted the Niners 57 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: would have a lot of injuries, and I've said before 58 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: Kyle is the great quarterback whisperer. Mac Jones is not 59 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: only two to zero, they're asking him to throw as 60 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: much as Justin Herbert. The dude has eighty pass attempts 61 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: in two starts with a wide receiver corp that's all 62 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: banged up, George Kittle banged up. You can say what 63 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: you want about Kyle Shanahan hasn't won the big game. 64 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: Shanahan with quarterbacks the league had given up on. Mac 65 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: Jones had given up, and that guy's out there spin 66 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: at it and two to zero. Credit to Shanahan. Where 67 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: Colin was raw. I have defended CJ. Stroud for two years. 68 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: He's twenty ninth in passer rating dating back to last year. Now, 69 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: I know the offensive lines not great, but right now 70 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: either as the Chargers. I picked the Texans to win 71 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: the AFC South. They can't pick up first downs, they 72 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: can't run it. Protection's not great right now. CJ's got 73 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: more picks than touchdowns, averaging two hundred yards a game, 74 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: and Demiko Ryans. I worry about this because I've said 75 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: this for years. There's something about defensive head coaches and 76 00:03:55,480 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: battle lines. Last two years, they can't get the online right. 77 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: I keep defending him, and I am wrong. 78 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: Where Colin was right. 79 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: I said Friday Carson Wentz today now is better than 80 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy. 81 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: He may not be in six weeks. 82 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: Yes, the Vikings defense was great, but I said on 83 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: Friday Show, Oh, he'll win and he'll be great. JJ 84 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: McCarthy looked overwhelmed. Carson Wentz has one hundred and thirty 85 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: passer rating yesterday, seventy percent completion rate in total control. 86 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: The reason I like Carson Wentz is look at the 87 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: coaches who like him. Kevin O'Connell liked him Sean McVay 88 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: liked him. He keeps bouncing around to smart offensive coaches. 89 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz was reckless, got banged up, but I will 90 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: defend him. I think he's honestly one of the most 91 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: talented backup quarterbacks in fact, easily in the National Football League. 92 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: And yesterday you can win a bunch of games with 93 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz. And that's staff, those weapons and Brian Florence 94 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: where Colin was raw. I gave up on Daniel Jones. 95 00:04:58,320 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: Forget Danny Dimes. 96 00:04:59,320 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 2: He's Danny. 97 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: He is dealing with baby now. He's got a good 98 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: old line in nice weapons. But he made plays yesterday. 99 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: Is he the next Baker? Is he the next Sam Darnold? 100 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: I said, give me a break. He's throwing the ball downfield. 101 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: This is not thinking dunk. Danny Dollars was six to nine, 102 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: ten plus yards down the field. This isn't a mirage. 103 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: He's not fooled anybody. He's making big boy NFL throws. 104 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: Indy had their first punt all season, so I mean 105 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: he's playing with confidence. Well, he's got Shane Stiken. Shane 106 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: Stikeen ain't making the throws. He is making big boy 107 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: downfield rows. 108 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 2: And I'm wrong where Colin was right. 109 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 1: Jaden Mayov a USC is anybody paying attention nine tds, 110 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: no pick, seventy one percent completion percentage. 111 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: I don't want to hear about their schedule. 112 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: For all the people that doubt Lincoln Riley, this kid 113 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: last year was reckless and out of control. He looks unbelievable. 114 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: They were missing their first or second best wide receiver. 115 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: They lead the nation in the yards per play touchdown 116 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: favorite of Illinois. This kid has cleaned up his entire 117 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: game again. Last year he was young, he was reckless, 118 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: He kind of played out of control. I didn't think 119 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: he was very good. Between the hash marks, he is 120 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: making big time throws and great decisions. 121 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 2: Where Colin was wrong. 122 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: Coming out of Ohio State, I thought Marvin Harrison was 123 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: can't miss, more like can't catch. Is he a bust? Honestly, 124 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,799 Speaker 1: I don't know what's happened. He's not separating. They don't 125 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: target him, can catches three games. I don't know what 126 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: it was. I thought he was a guaranteed stud. I 127 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: just thought physically he would be a mismatch, but lost confidence. 128 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 2: They don't target him. 129 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: I mean he was drafted above like Rowanduande and neighbors, 130 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: and I don't see it like at all. 131 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 2: Where Colin was wrong? Cade klubnick Ken Clemson quarterback. What happened? 132 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 2: And Clemson's got a NFL guy. 133 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: There, one hundred and thirteenth in FCF and scoring offense. 134 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: I thought he could be a top two or three 135 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: quarterback drafted. Clemson's zero to two in the ACC and 136 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: they haven't played Miami yet. They're one in three overall. 137 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: Fell into a deep hole against Syracu. I watched this 138 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: entire game. I don't know what the problem is. Maybe 139 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: they should have gone to the transfer portal. Clemson refuses 140 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: to do the nil holding the ball too long. I mean, 141 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: I have no idea. It's total regression, lower completion percentage, 142 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: more interceptions, fewer yards per game. Nothing looks right. I 143 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: had a lot of wrongs this week. I got to 144 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: own them. I had a lot of wrongs yesterday. And 145 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,679 Speaker 1: with that, Matt Hasselbeck stops by eighteen years in the NFL. 146 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: Man, I was wrong a lot. Col wrong. 147 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 5: I like when you admit when you were wrong. It's 148 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 5: just I love the humility. 149 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: Oh well, I don't have it often, but boy, I'm 150 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: bringing my fastball today, I will say that us listen. 151 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: I know it's the bear'st the Dallas defense, but here's 152 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: what I did, Like, they've got a lot that there's 153 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: a lot of people that need to eat there. They've 154 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: got a Luther Burden and Roma Dunza and Dj Moore 155 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: and two tight ends. And I did think there was 156 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: a rhythm Matt to the offense. I thought that a 157 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: couple drives where it was like the screen game, the 158 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: run game. They played the clockwell, I did sense a 159 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: rhythm or is that just Dallas's bad defense. 160 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 5: It's both, but it was clearly Yeah, rhythm, timing, accuracy. 161 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 5: No sacks is huge, Yeah, good pass protection. This was 162 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 5: easily Caleb Williams's best game as a pro. Easily. It 163 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 5: was fun to watch. If you're a Bears fan, You're like, oh, shoot, 164 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 5: this is sick, Like this is what we could be. 165 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 5: Ben Johnson, I mean he is like you see why 166 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 5: he was so good in this division going up against 167 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 5: guys like Matt Eberflus, like he knew the division. I 168 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 5: think there is something nice about game planning people that 169 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 5: you actually know, like you know them as well as 170 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 5: they know themselves. You know what they're never going to 171 00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 5: change where they're never going to change. But I just 172 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 5: thought it was a credible you know, and you know, 173 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 5: just you know, Caleb obviously deserves his credit. He did 174 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 5: a really nice job. But guy, it really wasn't a 175 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 5: lot of contested touchdowns, Like guys were wide open. Like 176 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 5: I don't have like a next gen stats kind of 177 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 5: thing on it, but like, usually touchdown passes are hard 178 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 5: to come by, you know, usually guys end up on 179 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 5: the ground. A lot of times. These were stand up, 180 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 5: nobody near me type touchdowns. It was an impressive, impressive 181 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 5: win for Chicago and equally is embarrassing for Dallas. Like 182 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 5: if you're Dallas, you're feeling pretty good last week and 183 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 5: now you're kind of like, who the heck are we? 184 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 5: Like this is this is embarrassing. 185 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 1: I want to know, though, do players look at it 186 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: and think the Bears? I mean, like the Bear players today? 187 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: Is it self belief in that locker room? Or is 188 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: there a sense Dallas is bad? Like were you ever 189 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: on a team that you were struggling to find your footing? 190 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: You beat a really bad team, how does that usually 191 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: translate the following week? Because they have the very average 192 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: Raiders coming up. 193 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 5: It's two things. Number one, never apologize for a win. 194 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 5: Never Like we would say that in every locker room ever, 195 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 5: Like it would just be like, never apologize. I don't 196 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 5: care how bad they were, how much disarray they're in. 197 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 5: It's really hard to get a win. Like, we put 198 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 5: our heart and soul into this thing. We're going to 199 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 5: celebrate it on a Sunday. But now here's the thing. 200 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 5: Win or lose that game plan, that celebration, all of 201 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 5: that that has to just kind of evaporate and go away. 202 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 5: It's like it never happened. You know, maybe there's a 203 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 5: feel good feeling. I think the hard thing after a 204 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 5: win is you've got to correct the things that need 205 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 5: to be corrected. Sometimes in a loss, you know, you 206 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 5: look at everything under a magnifying glass and you're like, okay, 207 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 5: we've got to get a little bit better in the 208 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 5: details here. After a win, sometimes you sweep things under 209 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 5: the rug in terms of like technique or hey, we 210 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 5: got our way with one here, and you don't necessarily 211 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 5: improve as the season's going going on. So I think 212 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 5: they'll be fine. Ben Johnson seems like a little bit 213 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 5: of a workaholic, and I don't think. I don't think 214 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 5: he's going to let him off the hook that way. 215 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 5: But I think a game like that for Chicago, with 216 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 5: the scrutiny that they're quarterback has been under, is going 217 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 5: to give some confidence to a team that needs a 218 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 5: little bit of confidence. 219 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 1: One of the things that I don't think we talk 220 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: about in the media enough, and I don't think fans 221 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: realize it, is that even practice is hard in football. 222 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: You know, basketball practice you get a good sweat. Baseball 223 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: practice you're in the cage. Football practice, you tackle and 224 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: get hurt and the weather's off and awful. So in 225 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: the NFL, just even when you don't get sacked, but 226 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: you get hit, and you get hit like Justin Herbert 227 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: fourteen times and pressured fifty five times. I'm watching Herbert 228 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: yesterday and I'm like, I hope people realize what it 229 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: is like to play in the game. Forget just the 230 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: sacks where you're getting hammered fourteen or fifteen times. I 231 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: think if if Harbaugh could go to a lab and 232 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: build a quarterback, it would be Justin Herbert. I mean, 233 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 1: when I watched him yesterday, I'm like, do people understand 234 00:11:58,440 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: how often he's getting hit? 235 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think he would build Andrew Luck and 236 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 5: I think Justin Herbert has all those qualities that Andrew 237 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 5: Luck had. You know, I think when I think of Harbaugh, 238 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 5: I think of what he did at Stanford, and it 239 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 5: wasn't a pass first offense there either. You know, it 240 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 5: was a hard nosed, physical, inside the tackles running team. 241 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 5: And that's I think the identity that he came in 242 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 5: with last year. And everyone said, oh, you're not using 243 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 5: Justin Herbert enough, he's not throwing the ball enough. And 244 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 5: Harbob basically said, listen, I'm going to get the best 245 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 5: of Justin Herbert by having this philosophy. And now you're 246 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 5: seeing it this year. You're seeing Justin Herbert put the 247 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 5: team on his back, playing like an MVP, making all 248 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 5: world throws in the pocket, feeling healthy enough to do it. 249 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 5: I mean, listen, I'm old enough to remember when this 250 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 5: dude was playing with like broken fingers and all the 251 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 5: broken ribs and all these types of things. Down two 252 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 5: scores in the fourth quarter, still in the game. That's 253 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 5: not a recipe for a long career. It's not a 254 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 5: recipe for playing great in the playoffs. I think Harbaugh 255 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 5: has the vision for what Herbert can be, and everyone's 256 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 5: buying in. Everyone's buying in. I think the opponent is 257 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 5: starting to buy in a little bit too, Like, oh, shoot, man, 258 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 5: this guy is one of the elite quarterbacks. You know, 259 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 5: even when we call the perfect play defensively, he goes 260 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 5: above the x's and o's and makes stuff happen. And 261 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 5: I think that, you know, protecting him a little bit 262 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 5: is a way to unleash him, and I think Harbaugh 263 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 5: has done a great job of it. 264 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know what happened at halftime, because 265 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 1: you guys only have fifteen minutes, and a couple of 266 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: those minutes are burned. 267 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 5: I think it's thirteen. Yeah, it's thirteen minutes, depending on 268 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 5: the stadium. 269 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: So Philadelphia trails twenty six to seven, they have minus 270 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: one yards passing, They go in for their thirteen quick 271 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: minutes as they're drinking gatorade and have an orange license. 272 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: They come out and the offense is totally reborn. What 273 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: did Philadelphia, in your opinion, do at halftime to literally 274 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: rework the entire game plan? 275 00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, one of the biggest things you do at halftime 276 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 5: is use the bathroom. Sometimes you got to hold it 277 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 5: and like it's tough, you feel a lot better than 278 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 5: the second half. That's a fun fact in case, in 279 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 5: case you wanted to know. But I think the other 280 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 5: thing that can happen is you get a consensus, you 281 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 5: have a short meeting. It's very quick, and sometimes it 282 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 5: can be got that big like you know, waffle house 283 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 5: call sheet looking like thing and you say, hey, we 284 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 5: got to get Aj the ball. They're leaving AJ one 285 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 5: on one backside of three by one formations, meaning three 286 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 5: eligible receivers on one side. Our ex receiver, our AJ 287 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 5: Brown is by himself backside. We got to give him opportunities. 288 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 5: That's what I saw. I saw a team that came 289 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 5: in at halftime and said, hey, AJ needs to be 290 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 5: a part of this. And you know, we've seen kind 291 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 5: of devo receivers like flip out on the sidelines and 292 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 5: that kind of thing over the years. I don't think 293 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 5: that's what we've seen out of Aj this year. He's 294 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 5: had a he's kind of had a good in a 295 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 5: good mental state. He's been doing a great job blocking, 296 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 5: and I think that's the better way to handle it 297 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 5: as a talented receiver coming at halftime, be like, hey, 298 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 5: I got my guy. These guys cannot hold me one 299 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 5: on one. And that's what I saw, and that when 300 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 5: AJ is cooking, when AJ Brown's getting opportunities, the Philly 301 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 5: offense unlocks. And you know, the poise and the demeanor 302 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 5: of Jalen Hurts is awesome. But AJ Brown, to me, 303 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 5: is the difference maker in a big way for that 304 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 5: for that scheme. 305 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: So I picked the Seahawks to be one of my 306 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: surprise teams. Like I love the NFL draft. I thought 307 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 1: they had their third straight excellent draft. But I also 308 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: love how they're using Sam Darnold. You know, everybody's like 309 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: his JS and and number one. I'm like, yeah, it 310 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: looks like to me. And they got this kid, this 311 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: fifth round kid out of Colorado State. He looks like 312 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: he's a big time player. 313 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 2: But I don't know. I just I watched the speed. 314 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 2: I watched the velocity. 315 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: I mean that first half yesterday against the Saints Matt 316 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: it looked like a pro team and a really good 317 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: college team like it was. You don't see that in 318 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: the NFL very much. Where Seattle had the ball seven 319 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: minutes and led thirty eight to six. I think the 320 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: Seattle thing, I mean, they blew the Steelers out in 321 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh's now going to winning record. What do 322 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: you make of how they're using Donald? 323 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 5: Well, I think it was a swing and a miss 324 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 5: week one. You know, Week one, they played the Niners, 325 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 5: and they got away from what they wanted to be. 326 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 5: They became this like drop back, shotgun team without a 327 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 5: full back. And I think Mike McDonald did a good 328 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 5: job of kind of correcting the market a little bit 329 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 5: going into week two. No, no, no, no, that's not 330 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 5: the vision. Here's the vision. I want to be a 331 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 5: downhill play action team. I want to be under center more, 332 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 5: I want to move the pocket. I want to have 333 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 5: a fullback in the game. That's what I want to be. 334 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 5: And here's how it fits with our offense and our 335 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 5: special teams and our defense. And I think message was 336 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 5: heard loud and clear. This is one of the best 337 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 5: offenses the last two weeks. Yesterday was like you said 338 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 5: it was, it was big brother little brother scoring on 339 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 5: special teams. But you know, really, when you look at 340 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 5: the pass protection around Sam Darnald, I think that's the 341 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 5: key for him and JSN is one of the game's 342 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 5: best receivers that people don't talk about don't know about. 343 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 5: He kind of had a little bit of a flu 344 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 5: game yesterday where he came out and you know, looked 345 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 5: like Michael Jordan at times. But when offensive line mean 346 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 5: get to fire hire out and play run action at 347 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 5: least half the time, it helps everything. And I think 348 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 5: that's the thing that some people do well. Some people 349 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 5: talk about it but don't do it as well. Seattle, 350 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 5: I would say week two and week three, they've figured 351 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 5: that out, and so you know, if you can continue that, 352 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 5: I think that Sam Darnold can have the kind of 353 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,719 Speaker 5: year that he had last year without Kevin O'Connell, without 354 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 5: Justin Jefferson. He's playing really really good football right now. 355 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: So I do think Worthy and Rashi Rice would help. 356 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: But I tend to believe offenses are about the play designer, 357 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: the quarterback and the offensive line, and an offensive line 358 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 1: can take an average back and make him a B 359 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: plus back. I look at Kansas City and I don't 360 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: care if the receivers come back. 361 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 2: They can't run the ball. 362 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: The pass protection, I don't think Mahomes always trusted. I 363 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: think we have to be honest about what Kansas City 364 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: is right now. Offensively, I mean they're like twenty second 365 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: in time of possession. I don't think they're going to 366 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,120 Speaker 1: be a very good offense. I think they'll get slight 367 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,719 Speaker 1: lead better, but I mean with Mahomes and Reid, they 368 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: can't pick up first downs. I mean, do you think 369 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: the two new receivers or the two receivers coming back 370 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: will make a huge difference. 371 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it'd be a big difference. But you know, 372 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 5: Kansas City almost feels like this this team to me 373 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 5: that they're almost like just like bored right now. It's 374 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 5: almost like, yeah, we're just gonna kind of like like 375 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 5: an NBA team that's just like, yeah, we'll wait till 376 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 5: the playoffs to play our best football. 377 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: You know. 378 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 5: You know, like that's almost the mindset. Not that they're 379 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 5: not trying. I know that they're trying, but they just 380 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 5: seem how to sink. I think they're not like we 381 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 5: talked about all those things earlier about playing on rhythm 382 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 5: and spreading the ball around and like put helping out 383 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 5: the guys around you in terms of offensive line, they're 384 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 5: just doing what they always did and they're less talented 385 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 5: than they used to be. You know, injuries are a thing. 386 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 5: Age is a thing, you know, maybe some some of 387 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 5: maybe like people have like figured them out and studied 388 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 5: them a little bit, so they maybe need to get 389 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 5: a little refresher. And sometimes they can be their own 390 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 5: worst enemy, like just getting too cute at times. But no, 391 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 5: I think this is a team that'll be relevant the 392 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 5: end of the year. They just might not get to 393 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 5: play it at Arrowhead, that's all. You know. They might 394 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 5: be a road team the entire playoffs. And again I 395 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 5: think they're They're just one of those teams that they 396 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 5: would be fine with it. They're resilient that way, and 397 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 5: I also would not be surprised to see them being 398 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 5: active at the trade deadline. 399 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. 400 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: No, I think there's a I think the Rams need 401 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 1: a corner if they want to be you know. I mean, 402 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 1: I think there's some teams that just need things and 403 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: you can't solve them in your own camp. 404 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 5: Finally, there's a Yeah, there's a you know that I'm 405 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 5: watching the Tyreek Hills situation very closely because if that 406 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 5: team gets really bad, you know, would would that make sense? 407 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 5: Would Tyreek Hill going back to Kansas City ever be 408 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 5: a thing? I'm curious about that that would change what 409 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 5: that offense would look like, right, away. 410 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: Finally, I want to go back to Josh Allen. I 411 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: said this last week that I always thought there were 412 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: things you could change about a quarterback. You can't change 413 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: their size, but you can you can't change certain traits. 414 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 2: And I always said, man, you find these. 415 00:19:55,200 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: Reckless quarterbacks reckless early, reckless late, like that's DNA, that's that. 416 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 2: Some guys are. 417 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: Just just to just play with a chip. They play 418 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 1: a little loose like Jay Cutler was like always to me, 419 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 1: like big time talent. He was gonna throw bad picks. 420 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers did that, and Josh Allen has literally eliminated 421 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: like his flaw. And I don't know who to give 422 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: credit for, but the fact in his last twelve games 423 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: he's got thirty touchdowns and one pick. I don't think 424 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: I've ever seen anything like that. Well, what do you 425 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 1: make of it? 426 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 5: He's incredible. I mean every single year, at the end 427 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 5: of the year you could point to this is the 428 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 5: thing that he's improved on. I think he deserves a 429 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 5: lot of credit, but I think the coaches as well, 430 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 5: Like he was reckless with his body and reckless with 431 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 5: the ball at the beginning of his career. Then he 432 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 5: became just reckless with his body and less reckless with 433 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 5: the ball. Now, I don't think he's reckless at all, hardly, 434 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 5: And I think what they've done is they've said, Okay, 435 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 5: you want to be crazy, you know, with your scrambles 436 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 5: and all this kind of stuff, Let's do some design 437 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 5: quarterback runs. Let's run you know, like we're faking into 438 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 5: the running back but you're actually reading it. And then 439 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 5: let's run counter pulling the guard, pulling the tackle, and 440 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 5: it's quarterback run game. It's a lot of college run game, 441 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 5: but it's almost like they're saying, hey, you get your six, seven, 442 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,719 Speaker 5: eight yards and get down or at least like as 443 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 5: a quarterback. I know this from from personal experience, when 444 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 5: you know the hits coming, it's not nearly as bad. 445 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 5: It's it's when you don't know that it's coming that 446 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 5: that's kind of where injuries can happen. So I think 447 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 5: there's like a little bit more design, in a little 448 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 5: bit more structure to him as as sort of like 449 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 5: being reckless quote unquote, like it's almost like the illusion 450 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 5: of reckless, but it's really within the play design. And 451 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 5: I just think he's been he's been awesome. Teammates love him. 452 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 5: The stadium loves him, you know all those things. I 453 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 5: think the opponent fears him. I think it's really cool 454 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 5: to see. You know, he is definitely on the mount Rushmore, 455 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 5: on the podium. Whatever you want to say. With the 456 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 5: top quarterbacks in the game right now. 457 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 2: Good stuff as always, Matt Hasselbeck, my friend, thanks on 458 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 2: a Monday for. 459 00:21:55,920 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: Stopping by Seeklin. Yeah, it's a It was the nuttiest 460 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 1: day all week. Jmack kept telling me Atlanta looks tasty, 461 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: and I said, Jmack, I can show you receipts of 462 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: thirty years betting the Falcons. But there were some genuine surprises. 463 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 1: I mean, green Bay with extra prep to lose at 464 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: Cleveland is a job dropper and in the box almost 465 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:29,239 Speaker 1: squandering a lady six leagues at home with Baker. I mean, 466 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: now we had one major upset, we almost had four 467 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: other ones major Colin. 468 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: Let me give you the list of quarterbacks who threw 469 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 3: for under two hundred yards yesterday. Matthew Stafford, Jordan Love, 470 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 3: Russell Wilson Kyler, Murray bo Nix, Aaron Rodgers, Bryce Young 471 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 3: threw for one hundred and twenty one yards and one 472 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 3: thirty to nothing. Yesterday was crazy. Nothing's making sense. How 473 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 3: is Stafford held to two hundred yards? I don't really understand. 474 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: What's interesting is I mean, they came, they had a 475 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: chance to seal that game. 476 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 2: Pooka dropped the touchdown. It wasn't easy, no, no, no, 477 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 2: not easy, but. 478 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 1: He dropped that and then you think, okay, they'll get 479 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: a field goal and it got blocked and that was 480 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: the game. Like, if you're on the road against Philadelphia, 481 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: you got to make one of those two. You either 482 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: got to make the field goal or you got to 483 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: catch the touchdown. And when they missed both, I was like, okay, okay, 484 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: you cannot do that against Philadelphia because Philadelphia in the 485 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 1: second half, I mean you saw it. They just decided 486 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna go to AJ Brown and the Rams don't 487 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: have the personnel to stop that. 488 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 3: So do you still trade AJ Brown if you're the 489 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: Eagles or do you just hold on to them. 490 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 4: Let's move here. 491 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: I pulled that take over to a rest area. I'm 492 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: gonna get a dunkin Donuts. We'll wait a little bit 493 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 1: on that. 494 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 2: That's good. 495 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 6: One more Heard.

Let's start with those fumbling, bumbling Kansas City chiefs. 537 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 4: Colin, Hey, look at this drama. 538 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 3: Andy Reid and Travis Kelsey, little chest bump, will shut 539 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 3: your mouth a little. I don't know what's going on here. 540 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 3: I didn't think it was anything. I thought it was 541 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 3: kind of Read pumping his guys up. But then if 542 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 3: you look at that angle, Colin Read is actually hot. 543 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 3: He's very heated. Here's Andy down playing of course the interaction. 544 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:56,199 Speaker 9: So I love Travis's passion. Man, So I'm okay, with that, 545 00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 9: we didn't have enough of it. Second quarter. It wasn't 546 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 9: where we needed to be within reason. You know, he 547 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 9: knows he knows when to when to back off the 548 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 9: pedal and knows when to push it too. So that's 549 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 9: part I love about him and the guys all in, 550 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 9: you know, just sometimes I have to be the policeman. 551 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: Yes, you know Steve Kerr and Draymond Green when they 552 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 1: were in the middle of that dynasty, there were. 553 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 2: Locker room. 554 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: Collisions like I think this is I mean, Brady and 555 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniel. This is the one thing I'm going to 556 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: say when you get it, when you have a great 557 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: team and you've won titles, the intensity and the pressure 558 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,199 Speaker 1: to win again, all eyes on you. Like this stuff 559 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: doesn't bought a Peyton Manning in his prime and Jeff 560 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 1: Saturday going at it. It's like, No, that's the way 561 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: it works. When you're a bad team, you're not as 562 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: all in and that you have less like like I mean, 563 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: these guys are playing for legacies and titles. Kelsey, this 564 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: could be his last year. Andy Reid, He's not going 565 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: to be coaching in seven year. So whenever I see 566 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: great teams as they age and they have these dust 567 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 1: ups like sometimes as Dynasty's age, what you lose is juice, 568 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: and I think Andy Reid said we just did not 569 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: bring the juice in the first half. 570 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 4: That's fair. 571 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 3: They also had one of these in the Super Bowl 572 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 3: on the sideline, so that's two in the last four games. 573 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 3: By the way, here's Travis Kelce's season numbers. Ten catches, 574 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty four yards in a touchdown. That's 575 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 3: like a Trey McBride Sunday. Okay, Travis Kelce season has 576 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 3: ten catches. 577 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 1: Colin, I think, well, I think it's fair to say 578 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: Travis is going to have great games like Baltimore next week. 579 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 2: He'll be ready to go oh. 580 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 3: Really, Okay, yeah, he's gonna Torturo Kwan Smith and come okay, 581 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 3: all right. 582 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's going to but I'm saying he's 583 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 1: at the point in his career where he picks his 584 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: spots a little bit. 585 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 2: That's not ideal, but I think he is. He is. 586 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 3: I don't think he picked this last night as a 587 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 3: spot to light up the Giants, and he had four 588 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 3: cats since for twenty six yards. Colin, again, I know 589 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 3: Chiefs fans thinks I'm just being a hater. If you 590 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 3: watch them, this is not the same Chiefs team from 591 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 3: two three years ago. 592 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 4: It's just not. 593 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 3: No, they are not They're not good. They can let's 594 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 3: get at all cannot. Yeah, let's go to the Cowboys. 595 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 3: Colin listen, I don't know what honor Jerry Jones is 596 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 3: talking about. I guess he felt like neglected and people 597 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 3: weren't talking about him, so now he said something silly again, 598 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 3: Jerry Jones after the loss to the Bears, where they 599 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 3: looked terrible, he still believes his team is playoff caliber? 600 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: Is this a. 601 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 2: Playoff caliber team? The Cowboys? 602 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 10: I will tell you yes, yes, And it's because you 603 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 10: saw number four out there today and you saw what 604 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 10: I think we're capable of doing in the running game 605 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 10: and that type deal. 606 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 2: So yes, I fully do. 607 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 10: Now we've got to as we evolve toward the playoffs, 608 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 10: we've got to get better defensively. 609 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: I will say this, Ceedee Lamb gets hurt. This is 610 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: a very top heavy roster. You take out Micah, the 611 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: defense is worse. When they took out Ceedee Lamb. You've 612 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: got turpin and Tolbert Pickens does not separate. He's just 613 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: hard to bring down. You've got solid tight ends. Dak 614 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: Prescott wanted to throw the ball down the field. You 615 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: could see him. He was getting time to throw when 616 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: he was patting the ball. Dak is not a dink 617 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: and dung guy. Dak was trying to throw the ball 618 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: down the field, Jason. When Ceedee Lamb was out, nobody 619 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: is open. Dak had time he was. Dak wanted to 620 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: throw down field and there Pickens is a great after 621 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 1: the catch, hard to bring down guy, but he doesn't 622 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: separate like Ceedee Lamb. He's not that guy. And so 623 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: I think what happens is basically yesterday. No Micah knows 624 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb and it's a bunch of b players and 625 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: see players. Those guys are a's. You take him out, 626 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: there is a major drop off off. I mean, Jamonte 627 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: Williams has been nice. Dak is very good, but Dak 628 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: was limited. There's just nobody to throw to that gets open. 629 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: Look how open the Bears receivers were, Look how open 630 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 1: the Cowboys were when Ceedee Lamb got not good. 631 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 3: You know, since my car got repossessed from losing bets 632 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 3: on the Titans and Falcons, I may have to just 633 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 3: put everything. I've got everything. Maybe you confront me my 634 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 3: salary on the Packers this week against the Cowboys. Kyle 635 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 3: if Ceedee Lamb is out there getting destroyed, and I 636 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 3: think they lose anyway. I think Jordan Love is going 637 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 3: to do what Caleb did and what Russell Wilson did, 638 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 3: and he's going to like this defense up in Cowboys Stadium. 639 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 4: Do you think Cowboys season over of one and three? 640 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 10: Right? 641 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 2: Well, I just I mean, I think we both said this. 642 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: One of the reasons they moved off the Micah Parsons 643 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: contract is they just did not want to be top heavy. 644 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: So now they have four first round picks in the 645 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: next two drafts, and those could become because they don't 646 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: need a quarterback. So Jason, that's a great place to 647 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: be in. We got two first round picks. I mean, 648 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: the Rams are gonna take their two firsts and probably 649 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: get a quarterback. Same with Cleveland. Dallas has two firsts 650 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: and they don't need a quarterback. Okay, that's incredible leverage. 651 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: So what Dallas needed to do was listen, this is 652 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: gonna be bad for a year. He's gonna go to 653 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: Green Band be great. We're gonna look like idiots. Just 654 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: wait till April. Dallas will refurnish their roster. They'll get 655 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: multiple picks out of their two first. They're just not 656 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: equipped right now. If Ceedee Lamb gets hurt, there's nobody 657 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 1: that separates on this receiving court. 658 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 3: Why don't we take it a step further, Colin, instead 659 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 3: of just having a couple picks, why don't we go 660 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 3: and move Trayvon Diggs to somebody who needs a quarterback. 661 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 3: I mean, our center's out there. 662 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 4: Let's just start training guys on our defense. It ain't 663 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 4: stopping anybody anyway. 664 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: Well, that is not terrible. 665 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 3: Now Diggs has a bad I think Biggs, I gotta 666 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 3: look at his contract before I speak. 667 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 4: But you guys just start moving off defenders. I mean, 668 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 4: I don't know. 669 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 3: Just somebody want pickings for a stretch run here? You 670 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 3: know he's playing for a contract. 671 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 4: I don't know. Kansas City g like at some point, 672 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 4: if you're Dallas, if you get smoked by the packers, 673 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 4: you're one and three. I know it's nobody wants to tank, 674 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 4: but why not what I consider it, Colin? 675 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: I think they're I think Houston may want to start 676 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: moving parts. 677 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: I don't I don't know. I mean, well they've got 678 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 2: I mean they have. 679 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 4: No offensive line. What's on? No, but the Chargers could 680 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 4: be in the market for offensive line. They need some help, right. 681 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: No, I think the Chargers O line rams corner. I 682 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: think there's a handful of team. I mean, Kansas City 683 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: may be in the market for a running back man. 684 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 3: Maybe you need a shopping list segment of who's going 685 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 3: to be going after pick at all. It does feel 686 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 3: like every year the Chiefs are going to be in 687 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl, right It feels like it's kind of 688 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 3: wide open right now. 689 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 4: Like if I ask you who's going. 690 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 3: To be in the Super Bowl NFCAC right now, who 691 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 3: you got? 692 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 2: Well? 693 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: I think I like Buffalo, but I don't love the 694 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: back end of their defense. 695 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 2: They need home games. They're susceptible. 696 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: No, And I think the weather will be an advantage 697 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: because the way to beat Buffalo show the ball down 698 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: the field and you know, on lowsy weather. I think 699 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: Baltimore Buffalo. I think the Chargers you have to take seriously. 700 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: I think Philadelphia and Green Bay rams everybody but Philadelphia's 701 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: got holes. 702 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 2: Everybody. 703 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: Philadelphia has bad habs, but they don't have roster liabilities. 704 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 2: I don't think. 705 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 3: Final story Colin college football. By the way, this weekend 706 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 3: in college oh my state. Yeah, this past. 707 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 4: Weekend it was fine. 708 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 3: Bill Belichick at North Carolina got smoked by UCF. I 709 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 3: watched some of this. They are in neckt Colin. It 710 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 3: was thirty four to nine. Belichick has been outscored eighty 711 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 3: two to twenty three by two Big twelve opponents, and 712 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 3: they have one of the worst offenses in the country 713 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 3: five point three yards per play. Not looking good for Belichick. 714 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 3: I will admit that I whiffed on this. I just 715 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 3: thought Belichick could coach him up, and he's look a revel. 716 00:33:54,360 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: Look at Bill Belichick's offensive career without Brady Cleveland pre 717 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: Brady new England post Brady new England Carolina. Look at 718 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: his offensive output. I mean I watched i YouTube. I 719 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 1: didn't watch it live.

But I watched the YouTube 722 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 1: highlights on this. They don't have any playmate, I mean, 723 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,240 Speaker 1: they just don't have good enough offensive players. 724 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 3: The staff wants me to know that we have video 725 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 3: of Belichick's young girlfriend giving him a pregame pep talk. 726 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 4: So can we roll that footage here? 727 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 3: Everybody wants to see Jordan Hudson's very nice outfit. 728 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 4: He's got the knee high boots. The I'm gonna stop 729 00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 4: describing it. Bottom line. 730 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,839 Speaker 3: That's about the highlight there for the Tar Heels, who 731 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:47,919 Speaker 3: next faced Clemson. CLEMS is not good, but this game 732 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 3: had a lot of interest, like I don't know, five 733 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 3: weeks ago and now it's like, oh goodness. 734 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 1: I guess people, I guess John Gruden didn't like this 735 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: a lot this morning on the wake up. 736 00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 4: What happened? 737 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: Well, I mean he said, never seen this wife or 738 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: girlfriend on the sidelines. 739 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 2: I don't know what to make of it. 740 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 1: I I mean she's running sort of his social media 741 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 1: stuff and maybe. 742 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 3: He wants to be on television.

I'd probably take Penn 756 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: State USC. 757 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 3: I'm not betting against Dan Lanning and a big spot. 758 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 3: James Strengthlin loves to lay a big egg. You know 759 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,760 Speaker 3: that against teen does James Franklin. 760 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:01,359 Speaker 2: You can never win the big game. 761 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 4: Maybe this is it. 762 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 2: God, that's gonna be great TV.

There are so many good offensive coaches 789 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: that before you bury a quarterback, he probably has a 790 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: potential career resurrection. So Mac Jones the league gave up 791 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: on it's over. Not Kyle Shanahan. He's now two and 792 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: zero with the San Francisco forty nine ers, and he's 793 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: not handing the ball off to Christian McCaffrey eighty attempts 794 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: in his two starts. So Mac Jones is Again, there 795 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,800 Speaker 1: are so many smart offensive coaches. 796 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan's one of them. 797 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 1: You think Mac Jones' career is over, it used to 798 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:00,439 Speaker 1: be twenty years years ago. 799 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 2: It would have been over. Not what happens anymore. 800 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 1: You get second, third, and fourth chances because of the 801 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: great offensive coaching. Daniel Jones. I mean we all rolled 802 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 1: our eyes when he went to the Vikings. Oh give 803 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: me a break, They're not gonna make Daniel Jones. But 804 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones is throwing the ball down the field for 805 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: the Colt six of nine yesterday on downfield throws. But 806 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: he was always a big guy who moved well. He 807 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: is spinning it. Danny Dimes is Danny Dollars. He is 808 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: spinning it. 809 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 2: Baby. 810 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: So this is something we've been on for two or 811 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: three years. It used to be if your first team 812 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: and you didn't work, it was over. You may get 813 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 1: a second chance. Guys are getting second, third, fourth, fifth 814 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 1: chances and Mac and Dan Jones look great thanks to 815 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: great offensive coaching and decent support systems. The other thing 816 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: is Matt Hasselbeck was on earlier. We talked about Herbert 817 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: and Harbaugh. If Jim Harbaugh could go to the lab 818 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 1: and create a quarterback, it would be a big, smart, strong, tough, coachable, 819 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: egoless quarterback. And that's what Justin Herbert is. Herbert yesterday 820 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: got hit fourteen times. He got pressured on fifty five 821 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,520 Speaker 1: percent of his snaps. He got the snot kicked out 822 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:19,239 Speaker 1: of him, and that kid just stayed in the pocket. 823 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: And I think his physical resilience is remarkable. And here's 824 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 1: here's Matt Hasselback earlier on Harbaugh unlocking Justin Herbert to 825 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: another level. 826 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 5: Harbaugh basically said, listen, I'm going to get the best 827 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 5: of Justin Herbert by having this philosophy. And now you're 828 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 5: seeing it this year. You're seeing Justin Herbert put the 829 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,959 Speaker 5: team on his back, playing like an MVP, making all 830 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 5: world throws in the pocket, feeling healthy enough to do it. 831 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 5: I think Harbaugh has the vision for what Herbert can be, 832 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 5: and everyone's buying in. Everyone's buying in. I think the 833 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 5: opponent is starting to buy in a little bit too, like, oh, shoot, man, 834 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 5: this guy is one of the elite coquarterbacks. You know, 835 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:05,479 Speaker 5: even when we call the perfect play defensively, he goes 836 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 5: above the x'es and o's and makes stuff happen. 837 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: I thought the AFC West was the most difficult division 838 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 1: for me to predict. I picked Denver, Kansas City Chargers. 839 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 1: I thought the Rashawn Slater injury would be a little 840 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 1: bit of a death knell for the offense. Well, they've 841 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: unlocked Quinton Johnson, who looked like a bust a year ago. Nope, 842 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: Lad McConkie still great, Hampton now coming into his own. 843 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 1: Joe All didn't give up a sack yesterday, but moved 844 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 1: right tackle the left. He's been excellent. And Jim Harbaugh 845 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: is now fourteen and seven as a Charger coach. Twelve 846 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,839 Speaker 1: to zero last year at Michigan, so Jim Harbaugh's last 847 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: thirty three games. He has a winning percentage of almost 848 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,600 Speaker 1: seventy nine percent at Michigan with the Chargers, and he 849 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 1: inherited a mess. The culture was broken, the defense was broken. 850 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 1: Herbert wasn't broken, but he wasn't at his best. He 851 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,080 Speaker 1: had regressed. Now and I've said everybody in life, if 852 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: needs their kingmaker, it doesn't matter if you're listening to me. 853 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:07,840 Speaker 1: You're a salesperson, you're a manager, everybody. You can't do 854 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 1: it in an island. And justin Herbert was always talented. 855 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:15,360 Speaker 1: We have unlocked. We have unlocked the perfect marriage. And 856 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: I said earlier there have been great matches and marriages 857 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 1: in our life. Harbaugh and Herbert take a back seat. 858 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 2: To nobody. 859 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 1: You can say what Simon and Garfunkel. Don't tell me 860 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 1: Herbert and Harbaugh could not have been Simon and Garfunkel, 861 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: Mario and Luigi, don't tell me they're taking a back 862 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,400 Speaker 1: seat to those guys, or Abbott and Costello. I'm not 863 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: buying it. Herbert and Harbaugh are in their class. Hey, 864 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 1: Batman and Robin jmact, don't kid yourself. These guys are 865 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 1: the Batman and Robin of the NFL. Zick, Freed and 866 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 1: Roy may be a little bit of a stretch. I'll 867 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: be honest, this one's a bit of a stretch. All 868 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: I know is when I watch Herbert and Harbaugh, there 869 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: are coaches and quarterbacks that like I think Mahomes and 870 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: Reid won the great play designer and won the hyper 871 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 1: creative quarterback. Reid and Mahomes is a perfect marriage. Sometimes 872 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 1: coaches tolerate quarterbacks Pete Harrol, Russell Wilson. It feels like 873 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: they're tolerating each other. Herbert and Harbaugh. To me, I mean, 874 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,320 Speaker 1: this is what Jim Harbaugh was, a less talented version 875 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: of Herbert. Big, tough, strong, smart, resilient, tough like that, 876 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 1: That's what Harball was. He didn't have huge talent, but 877 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 1: he was talented. I think Jim knows, like we all know, 878 00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,399 Speaker 1: he came here for Herbert. I think Herbert's better than 879 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 1: he thought. I think Justin Herbert is better than Jim 880 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,280 Speaker 1: Harbaugh thought. And I think Jim Harbaugh and that opening 881 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: press conference thought he was great. 882 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 2: You think Freeden Roy is a bit of a s thretch,
