1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: The volume. This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntire. What

2
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: is up Straight Fire, fam, It's me Jason McIntire. Street

3
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: Fire from Monday, December fourth. It was a a long,

4
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: long weekend, a very exhausting one. December's here. This is

5
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: what happens around the holidays. We had youth sports galore,

6
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:38,239
Speaker 1: we had NFL weekend that was I would say a

7
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: little surprising, especially with the Kansas City Chiefs. We'll talk

8
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,879
Speaker 1: about the h I don't want to call them the

9
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: toothless Chiefs, but the lack of intimidation is very real

10
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 1: when you look at Kansas City Chiefs right now that

11
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 1: I mean, can't win in Green Bay. Oh boy, got

12
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 1: some problems just for a lot of fun around the legue,

13
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: a lot of ugly blowouts like Chargers six nothing. Come on,

14
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: we will We'll get to well. I think we'll start

15
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: with San Francisco and oh, by the way, you guys

16
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: love the Brad Powers interview on college football last week,

17
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 1: So there will be a lot of college football in

18
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: this yes, in this episode of Straight Fire. By also,

19
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: I need to add, we're at the stage or I

20
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 1: think we've probably done well over a thousand shows now

21
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: I think so I am going to ask the staff.

22
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: Can we get by staff, I mean, rob G, can

23
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: we get the exact total? I mean, I think we've

24
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: passed one thousand, but maybe fifteen hundred are we approaching now?

25
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's like it feels like we need

26
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: to start highlighting some of these landmark victories. Now I

27
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: did take a landmark loss this weekend in youth sports.

28
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 1: I'll just I'll be brief. So my daughter, I think

29
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: I've told you guys, she started club volleyball, right, So

30
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: she had her first club volleyball tournament over the weekend.

31
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: At the same time her soccer team advanced. I'm the

32
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: assistant coach, advanced in this in this like Beach Cup

33
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: tournament to the semi finals. And of course, wouldn't you

34
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: know it that both games fell at the exact same

35
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: time on Saturday. So I said, you know what, I'm

36
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: gonna let my daughter decide which one. Obviously she'll make

37
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: the right decision and no brainer. And she says, Oh,

38
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 1: I'm going to volleyball, Dad, It's my first tournament. I

39
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: want to make a good impression on the first coach.

40
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: I love volleyball like I like soccer. But I love volleyball.

41
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my gosh, all right, and I

42
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: kind of wrestled with it, and I was like, I

43
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: got to try to convince her, and you know, I

44
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: was like, all right, fine, I won't try to convince her.

45
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: And so I said, listen, I'm the assistant coach. I

46
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: gotta go to the soccer game. And wouldn't you know it,

47
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: we had one player had to leave at halftime, so

48
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 1: we were eight against nine. She had like a big

49
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: dance recital thing, and it's tied one. One goes to overtime,

50
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: We're still down a player, and it goes to penalty kicks,

51
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: and we lose in penalty kicks. And you know me,

52
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: I'm ultra competitive and we like to win championships. I

53
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: want to get to compete and know what it feels

54
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: like to win and lose obviously losing Built's character and

55
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: I was crushed and devastated, like a legit. I was shook.

56
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,119
Speaker 1: Saturday night, honestly, we went we went to a holiday party,

57
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: and of course I started asking some dads, hey, yeah,

58
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: my daughter had this soccer game, and then she went

59
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: to the volleyball, and almost all of them were like,

60
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: you didn't make her go to soccer a semi final

61
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: game season over if you lose, versus a volleyball tournament

62
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: where you get one of those every like five weeks.

63
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: And I knew that was a situation, but I wanted

64
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 1: to like let my kid decide. So then I told

65
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: her today, like, listen, going forward, any semifinals or finals

66
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: in tournaments, and you're picking that over volleyball. Sorry, that's

67
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: just good of how it's gonna be. You know, I'm

68
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: coaching you on hoops. You know I'm at to the

69
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: semifinals for a volleyball tournament. Okay, kid, that's so anyways,

70
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 1: I was, I was a I'm sure dads are grappling

71
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: with this. Probably not, but I just thought i'd open

72
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: with that because it's stung. It's stung badly. We're out.

73
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: Soccer season's over, so on to hoops and volleyball at

74
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: any rate. Let's get started with the NFL. And I

75
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: tried to tell you guys a week ago today, I

76
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: was prattling on about how the Eagles were going to

77
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: get smoked. I told you Niners nine ers. Niners bet

78
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: at early, bet it often, and I think by week's end,

79
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 1: I said if you go back and listen to the

80
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: NFL picks on Friday, this could be a thirty to

81
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: thirteen kind of romp where the Eagles just run out

82
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: of gas. And this is one of those rare instances

83
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: where almost everything came to pass, with the exception of

84
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: a mildly slow start by the Niners. They went three

85
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 1: and out twice to start the game. The Eagles went

86
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,559
Speaker 1: field goal, field goal for the rest of the game.

87
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: The Niners were eight for nine on third down and

88
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: they scored touchdowns on six consecutive drives. Yes, Philadelphia was tired.

89
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: Yes San Francisco is the best team in the league.

90
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: But I think the bigger question is is Philly going

91
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: to be able to rebound from this against Dallas this

92
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: week on the road. And I gotta be honest, I

93
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: don't know that team looked drained. We saw Dallas go

94
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 1: up and down the field, Buffalo went up and down

95
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: the field. San Francisco humiliated them. And I do want

96
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 1: to highlight one. There's several statsu here we'll get to.

97
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: Number one is the Eagles defense, which has like this

98
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: awesome front. Remember they led the league in sacks last year.

99
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: I think set an NFL record, they can't stop the run.

100
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 1: Three straight weeks they've given up one hundred or one

101
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: hundred and forty or more rushing yards. They can't stop

102
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: the run. That's not good going forward. You know who

103
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: likes to run the football The Detroit Lions. Now, I

104
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 1: know their defense thinks, but there are some teams in

105
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 1: the NFC, like Heck, I don't think highly of Atlanta,

106
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: but what if Atlanta goes into Philly and just runs

107
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 1: up and down the field on the Eagles. They can't

108
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: stop Bijon and Algier and Cordrell. Like I'm just saying,

109
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 1: Philly fans could be a little bit nervous. Schedule doesn't

110
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: lighten up anytime soon. It is absolutely brutal. And once

111
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: you saw the Niners go eighty five yards ninety yards,

112
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: I think they had one hundred and seventy three yards

113
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: in the second quarter. I mean there's teams that didn't

114
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: get one hundred and seventy three yards the entire game

115
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 1: on Sunday, like the forty nine ers were on a heater.

116
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: Brock Perty MVP futures. They're feeling good right now in

117
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: your pocket extra spending money, not for the holiday, obviously,

118
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: because you know MVP won't be settled till early January.

119
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: But there's a forty nine Ers team that we've been

120
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: telling you is the best in the league when healthy,

121
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: they're a juggernut. And I do want to ask, like Rob,

122
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: this is a tough question to ask, But I'm watching

123
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: on my phone at my daughter's volleyball tournament. See I

124
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: see green Law kind of pick up and suplex what's

125
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: his face Devonte Smith, who is like, probably my my weight,

126
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: And yeah, I get it, Okay, you can't supplex people.

127
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: We get that it was in the field of play, right,

128
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,559
Speaker 1: I don't think of I'm not sure if a flag

129
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: was actually thrown on green Law. But what happened after

130
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: that was then Eagle's sideline was all right there, and

131
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: they jump up and DeVonta Smith jumps up in Greenlaw's face,

132
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: and this huge, hulking mountain of a meatball gets involved.

133
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: And I know Philly fans will be hate to hear this,

134
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: but if your buddy's getting in an altercation, you don't

135
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: put your hands on both of the people. You get

136
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: your guy out of there, that's what you do. You

137
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: don't put your hands on the Niners guy and the

138
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: Eagles guy and say, hey, guys, so you don't do that.

139
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: Who are you? That's what the security guard did. He

140
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: put his hands on green Law. Greenlaw looked like, who

141
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: is this guy touching me? I'm a player, this guy's

142
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: on the sideline. What the hell are you doing? And

143
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: that's when, of course the refs see that green Law

144
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: kind of you know, jabs at him. It wasn't a jab,

145
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: it was more of like a shove in the face,

146
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: a mush like, get your hands off me, which I understand.

147
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: And then that guy pushes back and it's like, what

148
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: are we doing here? How on the sideline? Like Kyle

149
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: Shanahan went off after the game, dudes not involved in

150
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: the football game putting their hands on anybody is obscene.

151
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: Like maybe the NFL needs to I don't want to.

152
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: I don't care about this dude and reprimanding him. But

153
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: going forward, like you know, if there's an incident, you're

154
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: the silent. You can't have anybody touching players on the

155
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: opposing team. That's not right. What do you think is

156
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: gonna happen? These These are savages on a football field,

157
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: tackling one another, fired up, running around the field, Hearts

158
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: are racing, like what do you you really think this

159
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: guy's not gonna do something, and the ejective green Law,

160
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: which I thought was total crap. And of course the

161
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: Eagles score a few plays later, and you're like, oh great,

162
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: here's the momentum. Philly's all juiced up, and then san

163
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 1: Fran goes down the field bing bang boom, touchdown. Shut

164
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 1: the hell up, Deebo, Samuel, I think silenced the crowd

165
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: and it was game over. They had nothing we could

166
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 1: get into the game itself. Robin why, I think everybody

167
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 1: in the world says the Niners are team to beat now.

168
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: But I'm just curious where you fall on this whole

169
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: green Law ejection, which I thought was honestly crap, and

170
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: the Sixers. It's not sixers. The Eagles tried to use

171
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: it as a rallying cry. I didn't like that at all.

172
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was a bad look for all

173
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 2: parties involved. Look, Drake Greenlaw, start with him, because obviously

174
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 2: he's the name that anyon would recognize. Nobody knows who this.

175
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 2: You know, coaches security guard dude is you know? Dray

176
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 2: green Law has to know better, just point blank period.

177
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 2: He is too important to his team. He's too valuable.

178
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 2: Any skirmish he's gonna get in with someone who's not

179
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 2: in the field of play just isn't worth it period.

180
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 2: Having said that, there is zero excuse at all for

181
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 2: anybody not involved in the game to be instigating anything

182
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 2: with any of the players. This guy, And there's a

183
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 2: reason why Mike Florio reported late on Sunday night that

184
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: the NFL is expected to come down hard on this guy,

185
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 2: the security coach, security guy, whatever his name is, because

186
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 2: the minut you allow something like that to happen without

187
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 2: there being serious repercussions, all the floodgates are opened, right,

188
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 2: because who's to stop from, you know, my Vegas Raiders

189
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 2: from just hiring a bouncer type guy whose only job

190
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 2: is to start shit with players on the field, hope

191
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 2: that something happens and get him ejected. Right, Because this

192
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 2: guy's not even a coach. I don't think that if

193
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 2: I've read the story correctly. He's just part of the

194
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 2: staff who was there to you know, keep the peace,

195
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 2: so to speak. And he's over there sticking his hand

196
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 2: in the face of the player like it was just

197
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 2: The NFL I'm sure is gonna find the team. I

198
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,599
Speaker 2: don't know if you can suspend a guy who's not

199
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 2: technically a coach, but I promise you something like it's

200
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 2: highly unlikely something like this happens again in the next

201

226
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: was in January, the NFC title game. I was on

227
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 1: the Niners in that one, and of course Perdy gets

228
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: hurt early. I was on the Niners heavy in this one,

229
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 1: and listen, we'll see who gets home field advantage. I'm

230
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: dubious that the Eagles end up keeping it. I don't

231
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: know if the Niners will get it. My guess is

232
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,320
Speaker 1: it will. It might be the Niners. I need to

233
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: look at the schedule a little bit deeper, but as

234
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: of now, like Philadelphia came out of that one banged up.

235
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 1: Swift took a punishing hit late. Hurts had the brief concussion.

236
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: The defense just isn't what it was last year. They're

237
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: really a mass unit on the back end. I'm just

238
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: when Brock Perdy is carving you up, and I mean

239
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: they were, Rob, They couldn't stop San Francisco. It was

240
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 1: just touchdown after touchdown after touchdown. Like again, Brock Purdy

241
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: walking up and down the field, Like, is this the

242
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 1: I'm hoping that now the masses out there will give

243
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: Purdy respect. Nineteen to twenty seven, three hundred and fourteen yards,

244
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: four touchdowns. Again, I don't if he's not the MVP

245
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 1: leader Rob, I don't know who is. Like, I don't

246
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: want to hear Mahomes another bad game out of him. Like,

247
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 1: I don't even know who would be second after this

248
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: win over Hurts, maybe Dak Prescott. It has leapt Hurts

249
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: in a second. Hurts was not great. Mariota finished the game.

250
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: You know, you don't want to make sweeping generalizations about

251
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: the Eagles off this loss, but man, it's just when

252
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: you get your butt kicked like that, it's tough not

253
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: to rub.

254
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it sucks to say this, but it really validates

255
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 2: everything that the Niner said of that NFC Championship game,

256
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 2: like almost to a man, any of those guys who

257
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 2: got into a microphone and actually spoke honestly all kind

258
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 2: of said the same thing. Whether it was Deebo, Samuel

259
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 2: Brandon Ay, I think even Robbie Gould was saying, like, look,

260
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 2: if we had Rock Perdy, like it was not even

261
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: close against those guys, like we run rough shot over Philadelphia,

262
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 2: and so you had you know, Hassan Redick was most

263
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 2: notably last week saying, you're to get your chance, You're

264
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 2: to come to the Lincoln're gona see what happens. When

265
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 2: we saw what happened, and the Niners did to Philadelphia

266
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 2: the same thing that they do to everybody else that

267
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 2: they get when they have their players, they beat the

268
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 2: living shit out of them. Brock Perdy, who if you

269
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 2: recall about a month and a happened two months ago, I

270
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 2: said on this podcast this was gonna be his Joe

271
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 2: Burrow season where he's gonna go from oh, this guy

272
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: might be pretty good too at the end of the year. No,

273
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 2: you know what, he's he's great. I don't know if

274
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 2: he's the best quarterback or the second best whatever, but

275
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 2: whatever the great tier is, that's the tier that he

276
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 2: belongs in case in point, the two biggest games that

277
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 2: they've played so far this season for San Francisco Eagles Cowboys,

278
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 2: the two biggest threats to them in the NFC. He's

279
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 2: gone thirty six of fifty one, eight touchdowns, zero interceptions

280
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: in those two games. Like, no one's doing that this season.

281
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: Like you know, Patrick Mahomes will get to in a minute,

282
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 2: he's not doing that across two games, any two games,

283
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 2: much less the two best teams on the schedule. Jalen

284
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 2: Hurts isn't doing that, as much as he has these

285
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 2: great comfort behind wins. Two is not doing that. Josh

286
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 2: Allen's not doing that. Nobody is doing what Jalen I mean,

287
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 2: I guess Dak Prescott technically, you know, because he had

288
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 2: the great game against Philly, but he went the bet

289
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 2: against San Francisco, so that, you know, crossed that off

290
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 2: the list. Brock Purdy, he don't miss. He does it,

291
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: and he's just a really good quarterback. And as sooner

292
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 2: that people accept that, the better they.

293
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 1: Kind of are refusing, they're holding out. I'll close on

294
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: the Niners with this. So do you guys remember that

295
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: Jacksonville game where there was a video of them coming

296
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: out of the tunnel with a boombox, and it's like

297
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel dancing, Trent Williams looks like a bouncer, Chase

298
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: Young's hitting the gritty and they just look like a

299
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: bunch of badasses, just a bunch of big dudes, like

300
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: a bunch of Alphas rolling through and you're like, oh damn,

301
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: those guys are They're gonna fox some shit up and

302
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 1: they roll Jacksonville. So they've been doing this these videos

303
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: every week now, coming out out of the tunnel and

304
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: rob this is the most interesting thing. Rock Perties nowhere

305
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: to be seen near the front. Nowhere, Christian McCaffrey, nowhere

306
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 1: to be seen near the front. It's all the big, bad,

307
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: tough guys on that team. Trent Williams, Trent and Deebo

308
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: are like leading the charge. But then you see like Jennings,

309
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: the wide receiver who had an awesome play and on

310
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: his touchdown he just like basically hit the brakes an

311
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: eagle zb was coming. He just tossed him out of

312
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: the way. Like the Niners just look bigger, tougher, and

313
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: I know, like Jason co when you're making too much

314
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 1: of a tunnel video. I'm just saying, you watch it

315
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: and you can feel the energy, and these are the

316
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: guys leading to charge. There is some I'm just telling

317
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: you there's something there. These guys are huge and like

318
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: usually like Patrick Mahomes, first man out of the tunnel,

319
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: let's go. You know, everybody's like, oh, we got Mahomes,

320
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: He's our leader. So who's the leader of the Niners.

321
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: I wonder if it is Trent Williams, veteran big dude,

322
00:16:55,600 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel tough guy. I mean, just like, just good

323
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: luck trying to tackle him in space. He was just

324
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: destroying the Eagles defensive guys. I'm just telling you this

325
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 1: team is scary looking and rob They went to the

326
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: Super Bowl with Jimmy Garoppolo. They're going to a super Bowl.

327
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll see with the Prock party. If Shanahan's not

328
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: on the short list of the best offensive minds this

329
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 1: league has ever seen. I just I don't know what

330
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: it is, and I know I know the stats. If

331
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: he's trailing in the fourth blah blah blah, that's fine,

332
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 1: that's fine. What he's doing with quarterbacks that nobody finds

333
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 1: to be superstars is incredible. When speaking of superstar quarterbacks,

334
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 1: what's going on with Mahomes? Guys? I think it's a

335
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 1: legit time to ask the question, like, is anybody scared

336
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: of the Kansas City Chiefs at this point? They used

337
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: to strike fear with the Andy Reid and the Mahomes

338
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: and the Tyreek Hill and its offense is high octane.

339
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: They're gonna drop forty on you. They're gonna do damage.

340
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: You can't stop them. And then they lose Tyreek and

341
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,719
Speaker 1: they still win the Super Bowl because hey it's Patrick

342
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:01,880
Speaker 1: Mahomes and Jujus and we still got Kelsey, we got

343
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: the offensive line. And then this year I've made some

344
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,679
Speaker 1: excuses for the Chiefs. Well, they lost that opener to

345
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: the lines. You know, they didn't have Kelsey, they didn't

346
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: have Chris Jones, and then they lose. Then they would

347
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 1: a bunch of games and lose to the Broncos. In

348
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 1: the game I had Broncos in the contest. I was like, oh,

349
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 1: there's a great spot for the Broncos. This is like

350
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: a scheduled loss kind of thing. And Mahomes was sick,

351
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: so that's just not chalking up is nothing, no big NBD.

352
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: They lose that came to the Eagles, and that one

353
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: hurt because I was I was big on the Chiefs

354
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 1: in that one, and I talked myself into you know,

355
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: this is a team that basically had two red zone

356
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 1: turnovers or they win that game. They just went up

357
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 1: and down the field. They're fine, Nope, there's no problems.

358
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: And then they go into Green Bay as a seven

359
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: point favorite that was bet down to six, and they

360
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 1: fall behind and it's an uphill climb and they get

361
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 1: zero touchdowns in the first half. They get a good

362
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 1: game from Pacheco, and they come up short with zero

363
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: points in the final fourteen minutes on the road. And

364
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: if you pluck someone from Outer Mongolia, you had him

365
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: sit in front of Packers Chiefs and you said, you

366
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 1: see these two guys who were throwing the football, which

367
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: one do you think is better? And this person knew

368
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: nothing about football or the sport, but you could just

369
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: read like, hey, when guy's doing really well and the

370
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: other one's just like okay, you might say, holy cow,

371
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 1: Jordan Love looks like a franchise quarterback, and what's wrong

372
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: with the other guy? I don't know the answer. Now, Yes, obviously,

373
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: you could say listen, Jason, if we get that call

374
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: on the MBS pass interference, which was super duper blatant

375
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: and downright embarrassing at the league. I mean, the Green

376
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 1: Bay cornerback base jumps up, tries to put a sleeper

377
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: hold on MBS. Look at him. He puts his arm

378
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 1: right around underneath the helmet. You could just see him

379
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: like trying to choke him. And then he's quickly like, oh,

380
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,199
Speaker 1: I made my mistake, but he's on his back. Collinsworth

381
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:18,199
Speaker 1: was laughing. They call whoever the NBC announcer is or

382
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 1: the referee rules guy. They're like, hey, what do you

383
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 1: see here? While there's a foul, It's like play no

384
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: flag on the play, and then on the hail Mary

385
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: and I get it. It's a hail Mary. It's like

386
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 1: a scrum. You're never gonna get that. They isolated Travis

387
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: Kelce and basically the Packers went up at the second

388
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: Kelsey jumped balls, not even close second Kelsey leaves his

389
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: feet boom, They just leveled him, like what are we

390
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: doing here? So you could but that's making excuses and

391
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: that's what I've been doing for these damn guys all season.

392
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 1: She's fall to eight and four, doesn't look like they're

393
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 1: gonna get home field advantage. Still five games left, still

394
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 1: a ways to go. But this is not a case

395
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 1: team that scares anybody. And now guess what they got

396
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: Buffalo Nick Buffalo off a bye. We'll see. Listen, Chiefs

397
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: are still going to the playoffs. Obviously, Chiefs are gonna

398
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: host a playoff game. Obviously Denver lost Chargers one. But

399
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: neither of those teams is stealing the division. This is

400
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 1: a Kansas City team right now. That kinda they come

401
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,200
Speaker 1: in and it's more mistique than anything. You know, remember

402
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: how the Yankees has had such an amazing run and

403
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: there was this Yankees postseason mistique and then I don't

404
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: remember it might have been the Red Sox who kind

405
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: of killed it. And then nobody was really scared to

406
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 1: play the Yankees anymore in the playoffs, and you had

407
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: like mediocre teams taking them down in the postseason and

408
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: was like damn, And now the Yankees I can't get

409
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 1: back to the World Series and they don't nobody they're

410
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: not nobody's scared of the Yankees. I don't think anybody's

411
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 1: scared of the Kansas City Chiefs right now. The only

412
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 1: team that really scares anybody at San Francisco. I don't

413
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: even think Baltimore is terrifying. Maybe am I missing someone

414
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 1: rob Maybe people are afraid of the Miami offense, but

415
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,880
Speaker 1: in terms of like Miami hasn't they haven't really done

416
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: anything that impressive. I don't even know what their best

417
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 1: win is. But like, I don't think Miami's really scaring.

418
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: You're not losing sleep game planning against McDaniel and Fanngio.

419
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 1: You know, you're like, Okay, we know what they are.

420
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 1: Let's just do the opposite of the dummies in Washington.

421
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 1: We're like, yeah, let's blit them and leave Tyreek Hill

422
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: against terrible cornerbacks. Like, yeah, it's tough, but you're not scared.

423
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 1: I don't know. It just struck me the Green Bay

424
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 1: with the several guys out looked like they weren't really

425
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: terrified of this Chiefs team, which is I don't want

426
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 1: to say flailing, but just not imposing like they once were.

427
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I don't think anybody is scared of the Chiefs.

428
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 2: And to your point about the Dolphins, quickly, the reason

429
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 2: why no one's scared of the Dolphins is because we

430
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 2: saw what Philadelphia and Buffalo did to him where it's like, hey,

431
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 2: and Kansas City for that matter, they're like, there's definitely

432
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 2: a blueprint to beat the Chiefs. They just to beat

433
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 2: the Dolphins, whether or not you can execute it. As

434
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 2: far as Kansas City goes to your point, yes, everything

435
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 2: that people feel good about them right now or the

436
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 2: reason why they're still talked about in the Super Bowl

437
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 2: contender is based on reputation. You're not talking on this

438
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 2: pod now going for a few weeks where it was like, yes,

439
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 2: the Kansas City is a very very good team. Their

440
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 2: floor is probably higher than a lot of other great teams,

441
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 2: like point in case being Baltimore or Detroit, like they're

442
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 2: less likely than any of those teams to really just

443
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 2: lay an egg the way that the other teams would.

444
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 2: The difference though, is, as we've seen throughout the season,

445
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 2: Baltimore has a gear they can get to that Kansas

446
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 2: City hasn't shown they can get to. Detroit has shown

447
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 2: that gear. Philadelphia has shown that year, The Cowboys have

448
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 2: shown that year. I mean the Niners. Of course, it

449
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 2: seems like anytime they're healthy, they're always at that gear.

450
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 2: It feels like, and Kansas City just can't. I don't

451
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 2: know why exactly, because they're playing with a lot of

452
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 2: the same receivers they had last season and they want

453
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 2: this super Bowl. It just it reminds me, and I

454
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 2: was talked about it before the podcast started recording. It

455
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 2: reminds me of the two thousand and two, two thousand

456
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 2: and three Shaq Kobe Lakers. They're coming off the three

457
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 2: peet and everyone's like, yeah, you know, they're having a

458
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 2: rough first half of the season, but you know, waits

459
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 2: after the All Star break and it's after the All

460
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 2: Star breaks a well, you know what, they're gonna flip the

461
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 2: script in the playoffs, and then they get to the

462
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 2: playoffs and then you know, they just never flipped it.

463
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 2: They just couldn't. It just wasn't there to be flipped.

464
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 2: You know. One way to put in the Chiefs have

465
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 2: scored fewer than twenty points six times this season. Woof

466
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 2: and Patrick Mahomes' first five seasons as a starter, they've

467
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 2: had six combined.

468
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: Wow.

469
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 2: Okay, this Kansas City team. The only thing that would

470
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 2: have made them scary just because you know, looking at

471
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 2: their weapons and what they have to work with is

472
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 2: well they have Patrick Mahomes. He's the best quarterback in

473
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 2: the NFL, bar none. He's probably the best quarterback or

474
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 2: in the conversation for the bestquarterback ever, Like just put

475
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 2: it out there. That was their their their calling card

476
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 2: and pass Manhomes hasn't been bad. But he's been anywhere

477
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 2: between the eighth and tenth best quarterback this season. Like

478
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,400
Speaker 2: pick your favorite stats, yards per game, passer rating, QBR,

479
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,360
Speaker 2: touchdown like whatever. He's somewhere between eight and ten, which

480
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 2: is fine. It's actually pretty good. I wish I had

481
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,719
Speaker 2: a quarterback who was a top ten quarterback in the NFL.

482
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 2: But for them to be the All Caps Chiefs that

483
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 2: make you shaking your boos when you see him on

484
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 2: the schedule that you got to go to arrowheader, they're

485
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 2: coming to your town and you got to face that

486
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 2: guy and that offense with Andy Reid. We got to

487
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 2: put up thirty five just the key pace and it's

488
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 2: like that's not really, that's not the case anymore. They're good,

489
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,239
Speaker 2: but not great, and I don't know if they can

490
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 2: get to great.

491
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're the one who put a lot of the

492
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 1: doubt in Lamar Jackson's postseason in my head a couple

493
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: of years ago on the Pod longtime listeners will remember that.

494
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: I just I wonder if the say the AFC's wide open,

495
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 1: rob is that like fair? Again, I think Baltimore's really good.

496
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 1: They host the Rams this week. It looks like they're

497
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: seven and a half point favorites. Like Baltimore's really good.

498
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 1: But again, I don't think anybody's terrified of them. Miami.

499
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 1: I think Miami's dangerous, but they might have to go

500
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,679
Speaker 1: into a cold weather town for a couple of games. Jacksonville,

501
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 1: give me a break, Kansas City. Pittsburgh now loses picket

502
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 1: to surgery for two to four weeks. The Browns have

503
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco. Like you look down the list, like without Herbert,

504
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:36,159
Speaker 1: without Burrow, no Aaron Rodgers, no Josh Allen. I mean

505
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 1: maybe if the Bills sneak in, they're dangerous. I don't know, man,

506
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 1: anyfc's wide open.

507
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, And it's funny to say that because

508
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 2: we all thought coming into this season that this was

509
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 2: the deepest conference we had seen, point blank period in years.

510
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 2: That we just looked at the quarterbacks, especially you're like, oh, man,

511
00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 2: if you you know west to east, there's probably of

512
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 2: the top thirteen quarterbacks are all in the AFC and

513
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 2: whether it's because of injury or inconsistent play that hasn't

514
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 2: really shown itself to be true. So you know, again,

515
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 2: because they're the Chiefs, because they're well coached, because they

516
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 2: have Mahomes, their floor is a much higher than any

517
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 2: of these other teams. The difference is is if Baltimore

518
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 2: brings their best game, if Miami brings their best game,

519
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 2: Kan Kansas City keep up.

520
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. Looking around the rest of the league, I just

521
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: there's not a lot to talk about. Like I'm not

522
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: got knocked out of Survivor because I changed like an

523
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 1: as clown from the Rams to the Steelers. I got

524
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: a little nervous and Ram steel Rams, I'm sorry. Rams.

525
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: Browns was interesting. It was twenty to nineteen and the

526
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:56,120
Speaker 1: fourth before Flacco was screwed up Pittsburgh, the red zone, ineptitude, picket,

527
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 1: injury delays, it was just all around disaster. I had.

528
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 1: It's bringing the contest two and two pending Jacksonville. For

529
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 1: those of you who care, I will not be winning

530
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 1: the Vegas Contest this year. I don't want to freaking

531
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: talk about it. I'm not talking about the Jets, whose

532
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: season is over. Carolina covered for me whoop the damn?

533
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 1: Do you look at the schedule? There was nothing good

534
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 1: like Tonight's game stinks. Best bet Jacksonville minus eight and

535
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 1: a half late. All right, let's go to college football,

536
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 1: and this is where it gets interesting. Football is back.

537
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: No more preseason games. The regular season is here. While

538
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,120
Speaker 1: we all love watching our favorite teams on television, there

Speaker 1: sales Folks. Somewhere along the line, I became public enemy

568
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: number maybe three or four for Florida State when I

569
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: think as soon as Jordan Travis got hurt, I was like, well,

570
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: FSU's out. They're not getting into the playoff, and everybody said,

571
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: what are you talking about. They're undefeated and the committee's

572
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: never left out or unbeaten. I was like, I don't care.

573
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: The committee, which is a bunch of dumb idiots there,

574
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: they have to you gotta give him some credit. They're

575
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: gonna see that. And FSU proceeded to look awful against Florida.

576
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: The backup quarterback got his bell rung concussed, finished the game.

577
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: But then of course this week again a concussion and

578
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: he can't play. And so as a result, you had

579
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: the third string quarterback for Florida State face off with

580
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: mighty Louisville Saturday night. Now, if you listen to the

581
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: interview with Brads, you know, some good pearls of wisdom there.

582
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 1: I said, I'm taking Louisville on the money line. It

583
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: didn't hit, but whatever. At halftime, I think FSU had

584
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: like eighty two yards. And that game was unwatchable. It

585
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: was the level of Chargers Patriots without Justin Herbert. It

586
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: was really bad football. It was just just disgusting. And

587
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: you're watching that and you're like, there is no way

588
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: the committee is putting this fsut. Even if the backup plays,

589
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: he's still I mean, he's you know, he was a

590
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: highly tattered recruit. I'm sick of hearing that like he

591
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: ain't Jordan Travis and I went on this tangent and

592
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: FSU fans were hating me, leaving me nasty comments on Instagram, Twitter,

593
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: just blocking all these clowns. It doesn't bother me, Like

594
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: I'm speaking my mind. This is part of the deal.

595
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: So of course Sunday morning comes at FSU or sorry,

596
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,959
Speaker 1: Saturday night comes. I go to this is like holiday party,

597
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: and I see cousin sal there. You know, we used

598
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 1: to work together Fox, and he's like, so, who do

599
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 1: you think gets in? And I was like, well, that's obvious.

600
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: It's not Florida state. And he's like, that's what I thought.

601
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: And then he pulls up the gambling odds and I think,

602
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say the book, but one of them

603
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 1: had FSU to get in minus seven hundred. I was like, wow,

604
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: stinks that that's not legal here in California. No offshore

605
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: was offering that. By the way, I would go the

606
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: other way. I would load up, and I'm sure it

607
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: was probably like a twenty dollars limit. Of course we're

608
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: in California, so you could not bet on that site.

609
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: And then I wake up Sunday morning and I see, oh,

610
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 1: it's down to minus two hundred, and now all of

611
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 1: a sudden, you're seeing money move to Alabama, and Texas

612
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: are headed in and Florida State now is like plus

613
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: money by like you know, what is it? Nine to thirty? No? No,

614
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: not not like like eight thirty Pacific and you're like, oh,

615
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: it's over. FSU's out. And that's when the FSU people

616
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: started to understand what was happening. And again, I don't

617
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: hate FSU. You're kidding me out. What do I have

618
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 1: to hate against them? I'm a realist. I understand. Hey,

619
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: I get it, you were undefeated, but guess what. That

620
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: undefeated team you have isn't the one that would be

621
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 1: in the playoff because your star quarterback's gone. Like, how

622
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: could people not understand that? And then all these people

623
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: are having this false equivalence. It's just comical. Well, what

624
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 1: happens if Patrick Mahomes gets hurt in week seventeen? Should

625
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: the Chiefs not make the playoffs? What on earth are

626
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 1: you talking about? That's not how they determine the NFL playoffs.

627
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: There's this thing called balance, schedules and seeds, and like

628
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 1: that's how it works. There's no dumb committee in a

629
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: room meeting deciding who gets in and who's worthy, and

630
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: so then all these other people are hung up on well,

631
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 1: who's the most deserving. That's asinine to even talk like that.

632
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: Who's the most deserving? Well, I don't know. You talk

633
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: to twenty people, you're probably gonna get thirty teams who

634
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: are the most deserving Depending on what region you're talking to.

635
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 1: Somebody's probably making the case Georgia should have got in, right,

636
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 1: probably some SEC fan, but well why not Georgia, you know,

637
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: well why not Oregon? Well why not FSU? And you

638
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: just get in these circular, dumbass arguments. And I just

639
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: stopped talking to these morons online. I mean, I'm getting

640
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 1: in a data I'm like, this is a waste of

641
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: my time, but I'm like doing it while watching games,

642
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:31,479
Speaker 1: so it's not like an actual time suck. But Rob,

643
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 1: I don't see how anybody with an ounce of logic

644
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 1: could say they got the right or disagree with the

645
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: committee getting the right four teams, Like, please tell me

646
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: you're not an FSU should have got in guy.

647
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 2: I am the guy without the ounce of logic, that

648
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 2: is me. I am speaking up for the unwashed masses

649
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 2: on Twitter that you have been slandering for the last

650
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 2: few weeks. Look, let me just throw some numbers at

651
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 2: you quickly. I know that you're a fact of a

652
00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:00,760
Speaker 2: feelings guy. Last four games, this quarterback has gone fifty

653
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,720
Speaker 2: six fifty seven of eighty one, one hundred and twenty

654
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 2: four yards per game, one touchdown, one pick. That quarterback

655
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:14,280
Speaker 2: is JJ McCarthy, JJ McCarthy. If you're just looking at numbers,

656
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 2: has he really been demonstrably better than Tate Roddamaker has

657
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 2: in his two starts twenty five of forty eight, three

658
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 2: fifty one seventy five yards per game, two touchdown, zero picks. No,

659
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 2: he has not. And yet there was no discussion whatsoever

660
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,320
Speaker 2: about whether or not Michigan deserved the number one overall seed,

661
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 2: no discussion whatsoever about whether or not they deserve to

662
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 2: be in the playoff. If you were going to leave

663
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,279
Speaker 2: Florida State out, and I understand why you do it,

664
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 2: because just to peel back the curtain a little bit

665
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 2: and how sports media works. The college Football Playoff, I

666
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 2: believe is an ESPN product. ESPN I believe has ties

667
00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 2: to the Big Twelve, to the Longhorn Network, and the

668
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 2: SEC is that correct. I mean, I'm almost positive that's

669
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 2: the case. So I understand why, just from a television

670
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 2: product perspective, you would take Texas, you would take Alabama,

671
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 2: you would probably even take Georgia and Ohio State before

672
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:24,919
Speaker 2: you would take Florida State. I understand that, But why

673
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 2: do we play the games then? If this was always

674
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 2: going to happen that as soon as Jordan Travis got

675
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 2: hurt that they were going to be viewed as a

676
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,520
Speaker 2: lesser than team, why did we bother playing out the

677
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 2: string and letting them compete down the rest of the way.

678
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 2: Something needs to be said for them being undefeated in

679
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,120
Speaker 2: a Power five conference and playing Power five opponents at

680
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 2: a conference and winning all of their games, if it

681
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 2: was always just going to be, hey, these are the

682
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: teams that I think are the four best teams that

683
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 2: you could almost guarantee there was going to be at

684
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 2: least one SEC team, one Big Ten team, probably even

685
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 2: two SEC if they really had their druthers, and then

686
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 2: just forget everybody everybody else, because they never would have

687
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 2: won against that logic. They were always just assumed coming

688
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 2: in whoever wins the SEC is automatically in whoever wins

689
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 2: the Big ten is automatically in because we just feel

690
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 2: those are the two best conferences. But isn't this the sport?

691
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 2: I you know, it's supposed to be. Any given Sunday

692
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 2: could as the NFL. But any given Saturday, anyone can

693
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 2: get upset because it's just one game, one off. This

694
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,720
Speaker 2: is not a seven game series. Are you the best

695
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,800
Speaker 2: on that Saturday? And Florida State? Even though their quarterback

696
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 2: and their offense has been you know, uninspiring the last

697
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 2: month or so since Jordan Travis got hurt, they won

698
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 2: their games. Why are we punishing them for beating who's

699
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 2: in front of them and playing the hards at their

700
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 2: dealt and still being successful. That's what I do understand.

701
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 2: I feel like you, and this is not a bash

702
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,520
Speaker 2: on you. It's more on the basche of the committee.

703
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 2: It's like, if this this was always going to be

704
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 2: the case, then why do we bother with this? You know,

705
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 2: eight weeks of here's the this week's rankings, here's this

706
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 2: week's ranking. Here's like, how could they be number four

707
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 2: last week? Win and then drop out of the top four?

708
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 2: I don't get it.

709
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 1: Well, my guess would be that you know, Jordan Travis

710
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,399
Speaker 1: played almost the entire season. They were only without him

711
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,839
Speaker 1: this week last week, and I think he was hurt

712
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 1: the week before the Florida game. Let me just check.

713
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 1: But there wasn't a large sample size of what they

714
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 1: look like without him. So he Yeah, he went down

715
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 1: in that bad game against uh was it Carolina, No Una? Whoever?

716
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,320
Speaker 1: They are? Oh, he didn't last long. And then he

717
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: goes down with the injury, and it's like, oh, that's boy,

718
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 1: that's brutal. That stinks. So let's see what they look like.

719
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,399
Speaker 1: And against Florida, which is a middling team, they were

720
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 1: down twelve nothing and then they rallied to win twenty

721
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: four to twelve, and it's like, okay, that's solid, or

722
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 1: twenty four to fifteen they win. All right, Let's see

723
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,800
Speaker 1: what they could do against Evio. Let's let's put the

724
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,760
Speaker 1: nail on the coffin. Let's let's look good, let's impress,

725
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 1: and and we'll get them in and then they just

726
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 1: look like ass And if we are to assume Michigan

727
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 1: by virtue of being like, uh what top three or

728
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 1: four or five all season by uh quality wins, they're it,

729
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 1: and Washington similar. It comes down to Texas, Alabama and FSU,

730
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: and nobody on planet Earth can say Alabama over Texas

731
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 1: because rob Texas went to Alabama into Tuscaloosa. I know

732
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: it was September week two, but they went into Tuscaloosa

733
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: as a I believe it's seven point dog and won

734
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 1: by double digits in Tuscaloosa. So they're automatically in. And

735
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 1: then the question becomes, well, is it Alabama or FSU?

736
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 1: And I get it, FSU undefeated, but when you if

737
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: you you want to play that game where you drill

738
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: down strength to schedule, Alabama best win Alabama, like Alabama

739
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: beats them in every category. And I know Alabama hasn't

740
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 1: been impressive. They barely beat Auburn lucky lucky lucky to

741
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 1: beat Auburn two weeks ago, they need a fourth and

742
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: thirty one conversion at the end of the game. Unheard

743
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 1: of stuff. They're not a great team, but on Saturday

744
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 1: they took down the number one team in the country.

745
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: They're won twenty nine games in a row. How do

746
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 1: you leave them out? And then and then we started

747
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: looking at like FSU and we're like, all right, what's

748
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: good here? Okay, they did have an undefeated run, and

749
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 1: now the quarterback's gone. They don't look good. Can we

750
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:44,280
Speaker 1: get them in? I mean, does that clear up anything?

751
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 1: Or is that still like while they were undefeated? What

752
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,879
Speaker 1: the hell? I mean?

753
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,319
Speaker 2: Look, I expected this final four to be the final

754
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 2: four that it was. I think I tweeted out before

755
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 2: the like an hour before the rankings came out, this

756
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 2: is what I thought was gonna happen. So I understand

757
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 2: why they did it. The problem, though, is I feel

758
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 2: my opinion that you've set back the sport of college

759
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,800
Speaker 2: football by doing something. Now it's not really going to

760
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 2: matter anymore because next season they're going to move to

761
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,480
Speaker 2: twelve teams, and you know they Florida State would have

762
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 2: been in this situation where they would have been in

763
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 2: right because they won their conference. But it just says

764
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 2: a lot when he brought up Georgia. Two things happened

765
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,240
Speaker 2: when those rankings were unveiled that had never happened before

766
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 2: in the history of the College Football Committee. Number One,

767
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 2: the team that was ranked first overall in the week before,

768
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 2: whether win or loss, ended up being out of the

769
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 2: top four the following week. That had never happened. So Georgia,

770
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:45,879
Speaker 2: you know, historically, even if you lose at the top sea,

771
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 2: you don't fall further than four because they've said, hey,

772
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 2: your body of work through the previous what was it,

773
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 2: thirteen to twelve games is usually enough to get you

774
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 2: in and you happen to lose in an extra game

775
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 2: that not everybody had to play, right, So that's one.

776
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:04,240
Speaker 2: The other one, no team ranked outside of the top

777
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 2: six in the second and last rankings had ever jumped

778
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 2: into the final four. Two teams did that with both

779
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: Texas and Alabama. And this happened while Florida State, who

780
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:22,880
Speaker 2: was number four, didn't lose a game. And so it's like,

781
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:25,839
Speaker 2: if they were always, like I said, if they were

782
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:29,839
Speaker 2: always gonna hold the quarterback situation against them, then why

783
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 2: did you bother having them in the top four to

784
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 2: begin with? And you know what's funny is I actually

785
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 2: saw on Twitter after the announcement was made that's actually

786
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 2: written to their bylaws that the committee is supposed to

787
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 2: consider if a certain player or coach is going to

788
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 2: be unavailable for postseason play, that that will reflect in

789
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,320
Speaker 2: the rankings. So they wrote this this, you know, loophole

790
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 2: into the system already they had it on deck just

791
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 2: in case something like this happening. When you know it?

792
00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 1: Did I didn't know that. Let me ask, if FSU

793
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 1: plays Louisville with the third stringer and wins thirty eight

794
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,800
Speaker 1: to ten, do you think FSU's.

795
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 2: In with the third stringer? Probably?

796
00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they would have got in yeah, yeah,

797
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 1: beauty pageant. And they looked up.

798
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 2: There if they would have won thirty eight, if they

799
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:22,880
Speaker 2: would have won twenty one to seven with their backup?

800
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 2: Do they get in.

801
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 1: Twenty one to seven? How is that? Did they get

802
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 1: a twenty one nothing lead in the first quarter and

803
00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 1: then just coast?

804
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 2: No, it was just a slog, the same way Michigan

805
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 2: was in a slog with Iowa. Michigan didn't blow the Michigan.

806
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 2: They didn't blow the breaks off.

807
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 1: They were a lock. All they needed to do was win, right.

808
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 2: And so why did Michigan get the benefit of the

809
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,399
Speaker 2: doubt that that Florida State didn't.

810
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 1: Because I think the week before they made their statement

811
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,840
Speaker 1: with the win against Ohio State, a top ten team

812
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,360
Speaker 1: to Louisville's, that's very top one. Let me quickly look

813
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 1: at the at the uh what are the lines? I

814
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 1: had them written down here? Okay, here we go. College

815
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:06,239
Speaker 1: football Playoffs January one, Michigan at the sharpest book is

816
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: a two and a half point favored against Alabama. First impressions,

817
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: everybody is gonna bet what they saw last as Rob

818
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:21,880
Speaker 1: just said, Michigan looked horrible against Iowa, just horrible. Alabama

819
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,359
Speaker 1: just took down number one Georgia. You gotta bet Alabama here.

820
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 1: You gotta take Nick Saban as a dog. The more

821
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 1: I think about it, I think Michigan's aside. My gut

822
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 1: tells me Rob that Horball went into that game said

823
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 1: we're not putting anything on tape. We're not putting anything interesting.

824
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 1: We're just gonna it's gonna be easy, dub We're just

825
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 1: gonna coast cruise control. And whoever we face, you know,

826
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 1: they'll have they'll have to do their homework, but we're not.

827
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,320
Speaker 1: We don't need to do anything flashy or exotic. Remember

828
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 1: Mcarthy threw for like three hundred yards against Ohio State

829
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:58,880
Speaker 1: last year in the Big Game, and I think he

830
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: had a massive game against you numbers wise, but did

831
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 1: have two pick sixes. Obviously, I do need to see

832
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,919
Speaker 1: how running quarterbacks have done against Michigan because Milroe, who

833
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: wasn't great, Hell, he wasn't good against Texas early this year.

834
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 1: Remember he got ended up getting bened for a game

835
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 1: or two. He's a different player now, he's gotten a

836
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,200
Speaker 1: lot better. So I do need to look into that

837
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 1: a little bit. But I'm my lean at under three

838
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 1: is Michigan, and I think I'll probably be in the

839
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 1: minority because Alabama just beat Georgia. The other one Texas

840
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:30,399
Speaker 1: four and a half against Washington, that that feels high.

841
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm a little surprised at that. I

842
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna go Texas there too. I think I

843
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:39,400
Speaker 1: like the favorite, and again four and a half is

844
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: kind of flirting with that dead zone of five. I

845
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:48,839
Speaker 1: just I don't know. Washington Oregon felt like Oregon came

846
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 1: into the game saying, We're gonna kick their ass. We're

847
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: big favorites, we got this revenge blah blah blah. The

848
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 1: way forty nine ers Eagles right, forty nine ers want

849
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:02,839
Speaker 1: to revenge and why Shington came out angry and motivated

850
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 1: and they just rolled early. That was a great game

851
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 1: Friday night. If you guys saw it, Why should it

852
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 1: look good? I don't know. I feel like Texas has

853
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 1: a few more weapons on both sides. Of the ball.

854
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 1: I think they have more pros. Very I do want

855
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,840
Speaker 1: to look into this Texas injury to the receiver Worthy

856
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:19,839
Speaker 1: he'd like rolled his ankle with like six minutes left

857
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:21,840
Speaker 1: to look bad. He was on crutches. We'll see. The

858
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,440
Speaker 1: game is still a month away, but early leans are

859
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 1: Texas and Michigan. What say you, rub.

860
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 2: I mean that four and a half number was the

861
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 2: one that surprised me because I know that you know,

862
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 2: it's the Sugar Bowl right that they're playing in.

863
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:36,560
Speaker 1: I think it's in New Orleans.

864
00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:40,319
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, so it's you know, tech Texas is going

865
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 2: to have the home field advantage in that year, though

866
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 2: Washington is technically the home team.

867
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: That's a good point.

868
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:46,799
Speaker 2: But I was expecting two and a half and in

869
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,239
Speaker 2: which case I would have loved Texas. But when I

870
00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 2: saw four and a half, that kind of gave me

871
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:54,880
Speaker 2: a real big pause. Because Michael Panics junior when he's healthy,

872
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:56,960
Speaker 2: and he looked healthy against Oregon, as you mentioned, that

873
00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 2: was a phenomenal game. He can sling it with anybody

874
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 2: in the country. He is fantastic. Quin yours, I know

875
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:05,719
Speaker 2: down the stretch is a little bit banged up, so

876
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 2: he hasn't been as sharp, even though he had the

877
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,799
Speaker 2: big game in the in the Big Twelve Championship. He

878
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:12,880
Speaker 2: just hasn't looked like he had looked earlier in the season,

879
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 2: just physically. But again, you have a month to recover.

880
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:17,840
Speaker 2: He's going to be fully healthy. Pen It's gonna be

881
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 2: fully healthy. I think this is going to be a

882
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,239
Speaker 2: close game. So if I were to bet now, though,

883
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:24,239
Speaker 2: I would take Washington plus the four and a half.

884
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 2: I think this is a field I think it's a

885
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 2: field goal game in either direction. And then Michigan Alabama.

886
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 2: I'm all over Alabama in this situation.

887
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: Oh interesting, all over?

888
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 2: I mean Nick Saban with the month to prepare, it

889
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,240
Speaker 2: most like, unless you have a transcendent quarterback is basically cheating.

890
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: Has Alabama ever lost? I gotta we'll do the research.

891
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,919
Speaker 1: We got to wrap this up. But uh, it'll it'll

892
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 1: be interesting. I think the world's gonna be Onbama here.

893
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 1: Maybe it's understandably so it's saved. Harball should be fun. Anyways,

894
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 1: lengthy Monday pod back tomorrow. We'll talk to you then.
