17
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: Around the NFL Podcast. My name is Hans. I have

18
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: joined the room build with heroes Mark Sessler, Chris Wesley

19
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: and Greg What is a boys? Hey? Dan? Actually not

20
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: true because when we were in London, Dan and I

21
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 1: went on the tour to Jack ripertour with Erika and

22
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: discovered a theory that we stick to that Greg and

23
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 1: West were a time traveling duo that went back in

24
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,839
Speaker 1: time and and and unfurled those crimes in England. Yeah.

25
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: We were asked by Shadowy League figure to create content

26
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: off going on that tour, and that's what we got

27
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: out of it. I gotta tell you, if I was

28
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: going back in time to travel, it wouldn't be to

29
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 1: commit bizarre crimes in England. Yeah, nor would you admit

30
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: to that. Dog Mark wouldn't see That's exactly what somebody

31
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: would say if they're time traveling serial killer of the

32
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: worst variety. I feel like I'd have bigger fist. You

33
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: got this minute of content, you know, right in the

34
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: middle of the best NFL Sunday in the years. I

35
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: mean that Greg's like no fun, get right to the

36
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: nerdy games. It's more likely to pull up uh the

37
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: biff back to the future like that one to Sports Almanac.

38
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: I mean, especially if Greg was in cahoots. I mean,

39
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: imagine the gambling we could pull off with that. Greg's

40
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: disease would be completely out of control. All right, let's

41
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: get to it. Greg apologies personally to you, buddy, uh sensitive,

42
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: incredible sunday of action in the NFL, great endings. I

43
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: mean we're talking over time, touchdowns, were talking, hail Mary's,

44
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: all sorts of excitement in the league and in the

45
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 1: playoff pictures. Greg, and this is this is money season

46
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: for you now. Greg, in addition to the disease is

47
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: also you know how to compute what's going on in

48
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: the NFL when it comes to playoff possibilities. And it's

49
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: starting to get more and more interesting because things that

50
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: you assume it doesn't always play out the way we expect.

51
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: And we saw that over and over again in week fourteen,

52
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: three weeks left. We don't know a lot know a

53
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 1: few more things, but this this that is a lot

54
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: wide open. It's very true. Do you want to get

55
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: to it? Please? You want to talk more about the

56
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: jack the ripper thing? No, I feel we raight we

57
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: wrapped down comprehensively and the good Back to the Future

58
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: part two. Reth enjoyed that. Yeah, and Greg, you seem

59
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: like you're in a good place. I'm in a great place.

60
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: Let's get to it. Starting at arrowhead, Mahomes holding into

61
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: the pocket, scrambling to the right, side still scrambling. You know,

62
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: he froze it. Ladies starting for Tyree Kelly's got the catch,

63
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: He's not the twenty at the twenty five yard line,

64
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: now inside the fifteen amount of bounds own at the

65
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: rate in twelve unreal. Unreal is right? Mitch Holt is

66
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: Chiefs Radio Network. With the call facing fourth and long,

67
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: with the game hanging in the balance, Patrick Mahomes added

68
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: another line. Who is impeccable m v P resume the

69
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: Chiefs convert the first down. Mahomes ends that drive with

70
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: a fourth down touchdown past then leads Casey to the

71
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: eventual go ahead field goal over time that holds final

72
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: score four Chiefs over the rate. Ray Vince Gregg Baltimore

73
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: gave Casey all it could handle, and the Chiefs still

74
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: found a way. That is the mark of a special team,

75
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: it is, and the mark of a special player. And

76
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: this this is right there with my favorite games of

77
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: the year. And I'm trying not to be a prisoner

78
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: at the moment. But styles make fights, and the style

79
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: of the Ravens defense staying so aggressive after Mahomes and

80
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: blitzing him and making him have to come up with

81
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: answers on what they were doing with their pass rush

82
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 1: again and again, and the way that the Ravens were

83
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: able to run the ball pretty well throughout most of

84
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: the game against what Kansas City had to to try

85
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: to accomplish. They forced Mahomes to be great. And I

86
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: wanted to start the recap with that play because that's

87
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 1: a play where uh Zonarius Smith wins clean. They don't

88
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: blitz on that play, surprisingly, but Dadarius Smith beats Eric

89
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: Fisher clean. Mahomes is sprinting to his right and to

90
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: throw the ball thirty eight yards in the air while

91
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 1: sprinting right and two guys coming after. It's just something

92
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: we've never seen before. Tyreek Hill playing through an injury,

93
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 1: coming back for the ball, and then just a couple

94
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: of plays later making a very heady fourth down throw

95
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: over Eric Weddle's helmet. There also was a no look

96
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: pass at one point during the game where he kind

97
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: of looked off someone how to keep playing. It's just

98
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: so much fun to watch this kid mature and just

99
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: do things we've never seen. And I think this was

100
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 1: a big hurdle for this Chiefs team to win a

101
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: game like this because it felt like a playoff game.

102
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: Andy Reid called it my home's best game of the

103
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: year because he had so much respect for a Ravens

104
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: defense that hit him fifteen times in this game. I mean,

105
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: that's the thing. They didn't protect him well and for

106
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: much for parts of the game. You know, the Ravens

107
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: defense did a good job getting off the field. I mean,

108
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: he is the m v P and I and I

109
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: understand why Drew Brees for some is still in the conversation,

110
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: but I factor in plays like this and the fact

111
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: that this is someone who's not wasn't even starting a

112
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: year ago, and and how quickly he's grown. And for

113
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, who played a fascinating game himself, some ups

114
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: and downs. This a reminder that justin Houston, being back

115
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: on this defense is a big thing for the Chiefs.

116
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: It was not an easy game for their defense. But

117
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: when he stripped sacked Lamar Jackson essentially at the thirty

118
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: five seconds left, and then later on when you have

119
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: Robert Griffin, that Robert Griffin in there on the most

120
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: in the toughest circumstances possible, that was a big difference.

121
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: I thought you were gonna do a nod to your

122
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 1: past and call him Robert Griffin three. I never know

123
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 1: how to say his name. Put a nice little throw

124
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: out there. He came into a tough spot. Yeah, to

125
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: back that up, Yeah, Jackson had to leave the game

126
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: with an injury late and and the Ravens did have

127
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: a twenty four to seventeen lead and their defense couldn't

128
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: quite finish it out. But Houston, it was a little misleading.

129
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: I've heard some announceis of this game. It just kind

130
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: of shows that, you know, the Ravens were pushing the

131
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 1: Chiefs around up front, and I wouldn't totally agree with that.

132
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: On the ground, yes, and Lamar Jackson opens up the

133
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: ground game and they were able to run the ball,

134
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: but they still got pressure on Lamar Jackson on a

135
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: number of key plays and made it uncomfortable for him

136
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: to throw. And if I'm a Ravens fan, I'm bummed

137
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: obviously because you came so close, and you really fourth

138
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: and nine, fourth and goal from the three, and you

139
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: just can't can you have the ball around midfield with

140
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: thirty five seconds left in regulation with some time is

141
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: in time out. So there's a lot of you know

142
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: what ifs to this game. But also you look at

143
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 1: it is a lot of people say, Casey, they're the

144
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: best team in the a f C. We just went

145
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: to Arrowhead in December and went toe to toe with him.

146
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: Uh and then everybody else in the a f C

147
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: at the top of the a f C is it's

148
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: flawed to me. So it's like the Ravens if they

149
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: could find a way in and they're in seven and

150
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: six and it's a bit of a dog fight in

151
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: the wild card race, but also the a f C

152
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: North is opening up what you're gonna get to in

153
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: a bit. If the Ravens find a way in, you

154
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: don't want to play him. It's it's almost as if

155
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: because they've done this massive identity shift on offense, it's

156
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: it's fair and easy to see them as a completely

157
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: different team. And for me, one that I had more

158
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: faith in to cause some chaos in the playoffs than

159
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: the shoe flackovers. I think their defense is playing better.

160
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: They're a defense set up to stop the pass. In

161
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: the past happy league, whoever gets that six spots should

162
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: be ad intriguing, dangerous team because with all these teams

163
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: in the mix, what you do not whoever, what if

164
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, here's what here's what I'm saying is, I

165
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: think the Ravens, there's enough good teams that I think

166
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: someone's gonna get to ten now. I kind of believe that,

167
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: Like the Ravens are in, by the way, if they

168
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: get to ten wins, they're in the playoffs right now.

169
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: But the Cult there's still the sack. Yeah, the gotta

170
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: go three and one to do it right. Basically, I'm

171
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: thinking the Cults are the Ravens h nothing, Yeah, they

172
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: gotta go three noted, it's not easy. They're gonna go

173
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: to go to the charges. We'll have time to talk

174
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,079
Speaker 1: about all that. But I think the way they're playing

175
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: defense now even better than they were earlier in the season.

176
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: All Right, So that was a great ending. Here's an

177
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 1: even better ending, maybe the greatest ending of all time.

178
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: Damn last shop back the troll they broke out. They

179
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: probably a picture. Think they do the Parker Barker pitchers

180
00:08:53,320 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: it what are you? Jimmy Sepelo spent about half that

181
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,559
Speaker 1: call sleep and really painting a picture with words. If

182
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: you listen to that, you have no idea what happened.

183
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: But Sepplo woke up, well, Greecy woke up. The Dolphins

184
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: radio network going nuts, and so are the fans rooting

185
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: for the Dolphins. Anyway, at hard Rock Stadium. An incredible

186
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: played and it called the miracle in Miami. On the

187
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: final play of the game, the Doubt Dolpins connected on

188
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: a downfield past executed the double lateral Kennyan Drake taking

189
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: at the finals fifty two yards of the house and

190
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: that was it. Thirty four to thirty three. The Dolphins

191
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 1: beat the Patriots. Unreal. The wind keeps the Dolphins alive

192
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,199
Speaker 1: in the wild card race, as we just hinted at,

193
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: and keeps New England from clinching its tenth consecutive a

194
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: ap C East title. Greg, that was unexpected. That was unbelievable.

195
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's the first it's the longest

196
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: game winning touchdown from scrimmage since they've been keeping track

197
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: in v But it was of a piece of a

198
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: Patriots game where they just didn't handle the details well,

199
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: the you know, clock management, Tom Brady uh not getting

200
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: any points at the end of the first half because

201
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: he took a sack, Uh, them not getting a wide

202
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: open receiver on the play before that, because the Dolphins

203
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: dialed up a good pressure Stephen Gostkowski missed an extra point,

204
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: he missed a field goal. Both of those came in

205
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: handy and the Dolphins defense, let's give them credit. Whenever

206
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: you thought that the Patriots were gonna pull away in

207
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: this game, they played the good situational football. Frank Or

208
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: had one of his best games. Kenny still has made plays.

209
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: And while that that play at the end is a

210
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: little flukey, and I'm sure we'll talk about that, the

211
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: Dolphins have been a big play team all year. They

212
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 1: averaged more yards per play in this game, with some

213
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,079
Speaker 1: help by the last one, than any play in their

214
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: franchise history except for one earlier this season. They were

215
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: They've been hitting on big plays all season long. I

216
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: don't know how they do it, but they do it.

217
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: In that final play, one thing watching it a couple

218
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: of times, division of Kenyan Drake, who, as he before

219
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: he tore off down the field and away from people,

220
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: was looking for someone else to laterally too, because right

221
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 1: never people descending on him, and then he had to

222
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: make the decision in traffic. I'm taking it the rest

223
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: of the way right and there and where you could

224
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 1: get on bellcheck a little bit and the well, the

225
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 1: game has passed him by so there's that Patriots coaching

226
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 1: staff is they do put one player back there. And

227
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 1: by the way, it was a sixty nine yard touchdown,

228
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,319
Speaker 1: So how ironic that it was Rob Gronkowski who was

229
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,319
Speaker 1: the last man who had a chance to save the day.

230
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: And you could you could put it out there because

231
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: Tad Hill with the bad shoulder and all that, was

232
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: not gonna be airing it out seventy yards into the

233
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: end zone. This was going to be if it led

234
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: to some type of crazy touchdown, these type of hook

235
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: and ladder lateral type plays. And you saw it in action. Gronk,

236
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: who doesn't move like he used to. Once Drake Um

237
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: got into the open field, Old Gronk took a terrible

238
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,719
Speaker 1: angle because he's also not a defensive player, and then

239
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: just got got motored by and he never had a

240
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: chance to bring down Drake. So it was an incredible play.

241
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: And if you're a Patriots man, you're kicking yourself because

242
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: and I mentioned this to Gregg, and Greg you downplayed

243
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: it because I know you're you don't want to think

244
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 1: about it because get you mad. But there was a

245
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,719
Speaker 1: scenario twenty minutes before that play where the Chiefs were

246
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: in a lot of trouble and the Patriots were in control.

247
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,439
Speaker 1: And if those two scores held, the Patriots would be

248
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: an ownership of the number one seed in the a

249
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: f C as we speak right now. And it all

250
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: went to help. It's that it's a long way from

251
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: the end of the season. If that had happened in

252
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Chiefs didn't lose. But with all the

253
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: criticism on Gronk, and he deserves it, it it was actually

254
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,199
Speaker 1: kind of a positive day watching the Patriots off. I

255
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: mean for Gronk, he cut threw eight targets his way,

256
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: he caught eight seven yards. I thought you're gonna tell

257
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: me he he was a positive day for the page. It

258
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: was a terrible press. It was a terrible day for

259
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: the Patriots. Um, although they got help with the Texans losing,

260
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: with the Steelers losing, so they don't really move at

261
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: all in their by situation. There's no way they're gonna

262
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: get the one seed. I mean, people listening to this show,

263
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: no the result on Sunday. The problem with blaming Gronk

264
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: for that plays four other players miss tackles before that,

265
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: and and I'm just saying that Stacy Jackson make a

266
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: play Jason mccordy. You would have loved to have Devin

267
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: mccordy on the field obviously, other than instead of Rob Gronkowski.

268
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: But it's an amazing collapse of a lot of things

269
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: to give up that touchdown, not just having I mean,

270
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: we talked with the Stunsters. I know that he had

271
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: a good game overall, and it was a bounce back

272
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: game for Gronk. But the way sports work, when we

273
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: watched that clip over and over and Gronk is the

274
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: last man there with a chance to take him down,

275
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: that's why people react the way they do. Logically, yes,

276
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 1: there were other people that could have, but I'll thinking

277
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 1: about the long game like that. As as a Patriots fan.

278
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: The defense today was so poor, but to see them

279
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: go up and down the field, have Gordon, Edelman and

280
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: Gronkowski all have that sort of they have Tom Brady

281
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: have one of his best games of the year. You're thinking, okay,

282
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: well that that's something we haven't seen in a few weeks.

283
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: The good and they have a banged up Steelers next week,

284
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: and then they have the Bills in the Jets. So

285
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: long game, there's not a lot to be super concerned about.

286
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 1: Getting to January from Greg's take out of this game.

287
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: But you guys picked on me last year for saying

288
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 1: I was I was the other way around that that

289
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: I had never admitted that they were good. So you're

290
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,839
Speaker 1: damned if you don't change because of us, right, they

291
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: have the other way. I really we were just essentially

292
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: just hyper jealous of your fan experience. That's what we

293
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: should talk about. The Dolphins, though, who have found their

294
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: way to seven wins despite being outscored by anymore. I'm saying,

295
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: give them, give the team with and I'm I'm honestly

296
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 1: thinking of one Twitter follower that said, can you please

297
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: just talk a little bit about the Dolphins. I know that,

298
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 1: like you know, we're not a fun team, but like,

299
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: can you let us have this win? This is a

300
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: great moment and it was set up by a lot

301
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: of great players earlier in the game, a lot of

302
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 1: key spots for them put the put the screws to

303
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: the idea that like Ryan dan Hill is only a

304
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: little bit better than brock Osweiler, right at les. Let's

305
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: here from Ryan tad Hill on that last play, I

306
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: kind of had a great view of the whole thing,

307
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: came back inside. Um then I saw him and Gronk

308
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: about ten yards away. I was like, grons on the field,

309
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: we got this, you know, Uh, yeah, that's funny. And

310
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: then uh, because you know a lot of as soon

311
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 1: as the play happened. And by the way, this play

312
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: happened within ten seconds of the Jets winning their game

313
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: on a fourth and goal rush. So in another lost

314
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: season for me as a football fan, that was nice.

315
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: But in the larger headline, yes exactly. But the big

316
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: the tweets I was getting right after this play was oh,

317
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: we gotta hear Zolac and none of us have heard

318
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: this yet. Just for the record, hopefully this leads to

319
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: an exploding pet. Let's listen. Daddy Hill throws down the middle,

320
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: caught by Stills, laterals back to Butler rather Parker, who

321
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: clips it to Drake. He runs across the court of

322
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: do anything angling, Indy is gonna win the f race

323
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: to the end, Sude, the Dolphins are gonna win it.

324
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: I'm what's the twice and try it takes it in

325
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 1: and the Patriots dance stunned and disbelief. Oh where's Allac?

326
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: He uttered? I think he? I think he essentially his

327
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 1: life might have ended there I'm not sure what. He

328
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: didn't speak again said, Oh Jesus, maybe that's it. Maybe

329
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: that's the end of scuts. That's a nice final line

330
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: from him. If we never hear from him again. All right,

331
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: let's move on. He's missed a thirty seven yard earlier today.

332
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: Holy slips, he slips. The writer's win, the writer's wind it.

333
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: Can you believe it? The writers are aware. Let's the

334
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: celebration begin, baby, Yeah, fret Musburger. You could tell it

335
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: in his voice. It's a nice time in things has predicted.

336
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: Let's have a good time out there. Chris Boswell stuck

337
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: his plant foot in the loose sode at Oakland cal

338
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: seeum didn't hold his slip and resulting field goal this fuire.

339
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: I think he hit it right into the defensive line.

340
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: Clinch Raiders win over the Steelers. Uh And what may

341
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 1: have been the biggest upset of the day, Let's face it,

342
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 1: Mark big big Ben Roethlisberger and became began the second

343
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: half on the bench with a rib injury. Magically reappeared

344
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 1: and appeared to save the Steelers for Pittsburgh's defense. Will

345
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 1: to hideous loss man. It's the kind of loss that

346
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 1: when you want to get down on Pittsburgh this sort

347
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 1: of these are the drapings because it's it's they've gone

348
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: to Oakland before and lost weird games, and I did

349
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: not think this was the team with the DNA to

350
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: do that this time around. But you lose Big Ben

351
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 1: for a big chunk of the game. And he was

352
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 1: sitting there on the sideline and we were like, he

353
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: did not look super early in pain. And there was

354
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 1: a sort of dramatic element where Big Ben came marching

355
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 1: out onto the field. There was a billion Steelers fans

356
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: in Oakland, and it was he received the ovation that

357
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: I imagined in his mind. Uh, he thought he would.

358
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: And then he sort of just nestled on the sideline

359
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 1: and at one point bouncing around and jump being and

360
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 1: getting ready to maybe go back in. But then they

361
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 1: kept Josh dobbson there for you know, a rash of

362
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: hideous place to the drama a little bit more build

363
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 1: it up, and then Big Ben comes in and creates

364
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: this eight place, seventy five yard touchdown drive. And listen,

365
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: the one thing about this game we can get into

366
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,239
Speaker 1: the Steelers side of it on offense is that the

367
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 1: Steelers defense is a big part of what happened here

368
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: because in Oakland offense that I have not believed in

369
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 1: in a long time, in a quarterback in Derek Carr,

370
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: who seems every week to get hit about as hard

371
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 1: as some any any quarterback in the league, taking terrible,

372
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:40,360
Speaker 1: terrible sacks, orchestrated a pair of late touchdown drives. One

373
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:44,119
Speaker 1: of them was a fourteen place seventy six yard or

374
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: that put them up seventeen fourteen with eight five minutes

375
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: to go, took nearly eight minutes off the clock, and

376
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: then answered Big Ben's returned to the game touchdown drive

377
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 1: within eight place seventy yard five yarder that put the

378
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,679
Speaker 1: that that drained the clock down to almost nothing, and

379
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,959
Speaker 1: then we had that incredible, nearly game winning drive from

380
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers. Have had a second insane lateral play, Yeah,

381
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 1: Juju Smith Schuster had a big play to put them

382
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: uh in line, uh to tie it and send it

383
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: to overtime. But Boswell, who's I don't know if I

384
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: want to blame him for this. And I know Ken Brown,

385
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: Yeah he works uh Ken Brown who works or As

386
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 1: He's a big Steelers fan, and he had told me

387
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: earlier in the day that they had an entire crew

388
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 1: of Steelers personnel trucking in um cleats the change out

389
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 1: of because whatever cleats they had originally was not working.

390
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: And that's because this is the last baseball football field

391
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 1: in the field apparently is not up to snuff. That's

392
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I know you could see it with your eyes. Yeah,

393
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: And I know Mark, you were rooting for the Steelers

394
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: to go down. And I think a lot of people

395
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: like to see the Steelers lose because they win a lot,

396
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 1: but I hate when a game gets decided like that.

397
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: It just was kind of a bummer. The one thing

398
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: that bugs me is because now you know there is

399
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: we have to find out what the rib injury for

400
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: Big Ben, how serious it is. But there's no James

401
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: Conner and there's hope that he'll be back. But the

402
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,360
Speaker 1: ground game was not the same. They had I think

403
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 1: five or six yards of rushing offense at halftime and

404
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: they never really got back on track. And so there

405
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: are concerns if one of these two are both these

406
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 1: two don't go into this New England game next week.

407
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: It's the problem is I feel like that's the third

408
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 1: or fourth time that's happened to the Steelers. Where you

409
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: finally deal with the Patriots, whether it's in the regular

410
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: season or typicating the playoffs, and you're down one of

411
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 1: your it's a much bigger game for the Steelers the Patriots,

412
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: because the Steelers have to be worried about falling out

413
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: of the playoffs entirely. That's on the table now. They

414
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 1: can't be considered the favorites in the n f C

415
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: North right now. They have a half game league. They're

416
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: on a three game losing streak and they play the

417
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: Patriots and Saints the next two weeks. Are they even

418
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 1: a good team right now? I don't know. They keep

419
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: losing these clothes. So that's three straight and they've all

420
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 1: been close. I mean, they basically all right at the end.

421
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: I think they should be a good team. They should

422
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,679
Speaker 1: be better that. It's crazy how the Raiders too, have

423
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,640
Speaker 1: put together two nice offensive performances in a row out

424
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 1: of nowhere. I mean, Derek Carr, if he with nobody,

425
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 1: if he finishes this season out like this the next

426
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: three weeks, I just think that could impact the way

427
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: they think about, you know, whether he would be available

428
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 1: in a trade or anything like that. Because he played

429
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: well last week. It's still an offense that runs through

430
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: Jared Cook, who's playing very well last couple of weeks.

431
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: But then you got Seth Roberts. They've got those guys

432
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 1: I've never heard of catching passes. I have a prediction

433
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: to make for the upcoming week ahead of Week fifteen

434
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: in the NFL, coming off of a third straight loss

435
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: in a game in which Smith Schuster went eight for

436
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: one thirty and two touchdowns and Antonio Brown went for

437
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 1: five for thirty five on seven targets. And Antonio Brown

438
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 1: will be heard from, whether it's in the media or

439
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: missing on the practice field. I think Tomlin's gonna have

440
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 1: to be heard from after he said we were in

441
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 1: the rhythm and flow of the game is why they

442
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 1: didn't play. That makes no sense to me. Punt, turnover

443
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,640
Speaker 1: on downs, interception, punt, and Josh Dobbs did not look

444
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: ready for prime time. They threw nine throws this against

445
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: the Raiders for twenty four yards in a in a pick.

446
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 1: That's what Josh Dobbs did. So it does make you

447
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 1: just watching the game, it it looked like they were

448
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,400
Speaker 1: China sneak away out and you don't want to speculate

449
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: what happened to Ben but they say it's a rib injury,

450
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: so you can pretty much you put it together that

451
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,959
Speaker 1: they're trying to get that win without risking him hurting

452
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: it again. And it didn't work out. And all that said,

453
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: Big Ben did come in and the Steelers, if you're

454
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: a team that should be taken seriously at this juncture

455
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: of the season, go go win the game at that point,

456
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: get to stop and move on. I'm didn't do it.

457
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 1: Plenty of Steelers fans agree with you. I'm stunned by

458
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 1: this team losing three straight. I really am, because I

459
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: think they were so strong upfront. They might have the

460
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 1: best line in the league. They have a good defensive line.

461
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,119
Speaker 1: But hasn't happened. All right, let's move on to another

462
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: great ending Prescott and a gun. They look like they're

463
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 1: gonna bless circums. Everybody slant in the direction of Sucker

464
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 1: Cucker Cooper, Touchcomb Cocker Cowboys. How else would you settle

465
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: this game besides the ball bouncing off the defender into

466
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper's hands and him walking into the winning school

467
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 1: A lot of ways, He's brad Sham, He's the sham god.

468
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 1: Cowboys Radio Network. MARII Cooper went off for two seventeen

469
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: and three touchdowns. In the final score on a deflected ball,

470
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 1: the difference of the Cowboys overtime win over the Eagles

471
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 1: at jeral World. These two teams combined for thirty one

472
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: points in the fourth quarter as Dak Prescott Carson Wentz

473
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 1: flipped a switch late in this one, Greg, this one

474
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,199
Speaker 1: all but guarantees an NFC East title for the Cowboys,

475
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: But doesn't make you a believer in that big d uh?

476
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 1: In what sense they could win a playoff game? Yes,

477
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 1: I mean I think they're any want. They're one of

478
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: the most consistent teams. I mean, I thought we eliminated

479
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 1: the phrase big d from the program. I voted that down.

480
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: It had to be Nan. That was a request, the

481
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: simple request. I wouldn't support that request. They're only a

482
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: week away from beating the Saints. Of course they can

483
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: win a playoff game, right, I mean they But this game,

484
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 1: this game was a reminder that even when they play

485
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 1: at their best, sometimes they just invite close games. And

486
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: that's why it shouldn't have ended on a lucky tip.

487
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:09,359
Speaker 1: Because the Cowboys destroyed Philadelphia throughout this game. I mean,

488
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 1: they had five seventy six yards to two fifty six.

489
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,120
Speaker 1: They had forty five minutes time of possession to twenty

490
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: two for the Eagles. They were the better team from

491
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 1: minute one through overtime. But because Dak Prescott had probably

492
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,360
Speaker 1: the worst four hundred and fifty five like forty two,

493
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: you know, three touchdown performance you'll ever want to see

494
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: early by missing a lot of throws, and that they

495
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: played it a little tight to the vest and they

496
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 1: expected their defense to finish it off. It was closer

497
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: than it needed to be. But I'm impressed that Dak

498
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: kind of put all that aside, and a Marie Cooper

499
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: just became a star and he's been a star since

500
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: he's been there. Marie Cooper carried Dek Prescott in this game. Yes,

501
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: and this guy credit credit the Cowboys front office. They

502
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: got a number four overall pick kind of talent, and

503
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: they gave up a pick that's gonna be in the twenties.

504
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 1: That is a vast difference in value. And I know

505
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 1: you have to sign him to a deal, but this

506
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: was a great trade for the Cowboys. Not just a

507
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: almost a good trade or barely a good This was

508
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 1: a home run trade. I mean, he's completely transformed their offense.

509
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 1: And I don't even know if the Cowboys thought it

510
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 1: could go this well, because he's basically become the greatest

511
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 1: version of what he was when he was a playmaker

512
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 1: in Oakland, maybe even better, and that was he simply

513
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 1: was not that guy near the end of his his

514
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 1: tenure in Oakland. And what he's done now is take

515
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,360
Speaker 1: remember what the Cowboys looked like before that trade, where putrid.

516
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: Anytime they fell behind, they were banged. And now they

517
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: have the ability to make big plays, explosive plays, and

518
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: he's been at the center of the of every every

519
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: one of these big plays and the ability to deliver

520
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: a key lock in Week four, I think that was

521
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: the most I've sweated a lock they I mean, the

522
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 1: way Cooper talked about, uh, the game winning catch after

523
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,360
Speaker 1: the game kind of says why he's so valuable. He said,

524
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: they knew the slant was coming, so he stemmed the route.

525
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: He kind of changed up the route a little bit.

526
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,439
Speaker 1: He's a very smart player. He's a great route runner.

527
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: It also is the reminder that the Cowboys run these

528
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,879
Speaker 1: isolation routes where they're basically which not a lot of

529
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 1: teams do anymore. As much as the Cowboys where they're like, hey,

530
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: get open, you know, like, go win your matchup, and

531
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: and and he's the only guy in the team that

532
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: can go win his matchup. And he does it, you know,

533
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 1: time after time against the banged up Eagle secondary. Yeah,

534
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: he's winning matchups. He's great after the catch, he's scoring touchdowns,

535
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,959
Speaker 1: he's moving the chains. What more can you ask from

536
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: a number one receiver. This guy's joined everything. We were

537
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: we were watching the Steelers Raiders game at the same

538
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: exact time that Cowboys Eagles was blowing up, and there

539
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: was a clip of you know, John Gruden, who finally

540
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: did something here, you know, weeks away from Christmas, jogging

541
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: down the field in Oakland, pumping his fists, you know,

542
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 1: and waving to fans who will be in Las Vegas

543
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: two years from now and not in Oakland. And then

544
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 1: seconds later, Marii Cooper caps off the game the way

545
00:26:59,920 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: he didn't. It's a reminder that as good as as

546
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: traded it was for the Cowboys, the Raiders are traded

547
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: away two of the best players in the league, two

548
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 1: teams that know how to use them, and not a

549
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 1: good look. Right now. Zeke was awesome in this game

550
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 1: that we haven't even mentioned his name, and I think

551
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: he had a hundred and ninety yards and yeah, forty touches,

552
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,640
Speaker 1: a fourth down play where the Eagles one off the line,

553
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 1: which they did here and there the Eagles deep the

554
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: Eagles for the first time almost it felt like a

555
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 1: last gasp, like the title the you know, the belt holder,

556
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 1: right as he's about to lose the belt starts fighting

557
00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: back because we didn't think Carson Wentz would have had

558
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: a drive left. The only reason they had a touchdown

559
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: in the first three and a half quarters in this

560
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 1: game was because they took over the ball at a

561
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: two yard line after Dak Prescott interception, and yet Wentz

562
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 1: went up and down the field with two great touchdown drives,

563
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 1: including some dimes to put, you know, to make The

564
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,199
Speaker 1: Cowboys earned this NFC East and they basically wanted one thing.

565
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 1: I'd say, because we talked about two teams were coaching

566
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: in the front office have held transform who they were

567
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 1: mid season. It's the Rave with Lamar Jackson in their

568
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 1: new offense and the Cowboys doing everything we just said.

569
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 1: The Eagles are the team that could never figure out

570
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 1: how to change what they were, which is a boring

571
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: underwhelming super Bowl defending champion, and I think since we're

572
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: in the post mortem stage for the Eagles, because I

573
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 1: think the Cowboys, according to UH the people that judge

574
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: these things, are favorites to win this division. He goes,

575
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: fans will argue with you that, hey, if we get

576
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 1: the nine wins, we probably might get in the playoffs.

577
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 1: Here as a wild and he wasn't called on a

578
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,360
Speaker 1: for passinger fear and something. If you're an Eagles fan,

579
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 1: I'm just saying they could still have some but not much.

580
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: When's the last time the Eagles played a good game. Yeah,

581
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,479
Speaker 1: that's why I han't been a long time, and Carson

582
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: Wentz is a big part of that. He just hasn't

583
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: looked sharp and he got hot at the end of

584
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: this game, but he missed a lot of throws. Of course,

585
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 1: he missed the end of last season or the Super

586
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: Bowl run with the serious knee injury. He's a guy,

587
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 1: not that I have doubts on him now, but I

588
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 1: think he's gonna be a guy next summer where he's

589
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: gonna have a lot of motivation to show UH where

590
00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: he's at and that he is a superstar type guy.

591
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: Because this was a disappointing season. Let us before we

592
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 1: move on. You guys loose cannon here, and guys are

593
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: terrible at taking care of their health. Whether it's a

594
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 1: knee injury, bad back, or something worse, Guys are usually

595
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: more comfortable rubbing some dirt on it than seeing a doctor.

596
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: You know. Um, I personally can't comment on this because

597
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: I'm a female and I love going to the doctors.

598
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: But I understand that there are some men in their

599
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 1: lives that that don't feel comfortable going to a doctor,

600
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: and so it's easier to just do it from you know,

601
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: the privacy of your own home. The same is true

602
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,920

603
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: e D don't get treated for it. Thankfully, Roman created

604
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 1: an easy way to get checked out by a doctor

605
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,120

620
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: to the forty fifty. It's a fut race because the

621
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: Redskins thirty. No one's gonna catch Barkley. He raises his

622
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: hand and celebrates cutsdown Giants seventy eight yards for the

623
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: Rookie Sensations. Se Kwon Barkley fop Papa, one of the

624
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: best voices in the business Giants Radio Network, se Kwon Barkley,

625
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: He's incredible. The Giants rookie went off for a hundred

626
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 1: seventy yards on the ground just fourteen carries that big

627
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: one uh the seventy eight yard or h hammer dropper.

628
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 1: As the Giants dismantled the Red Skins forty to sixteen

629
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 1: and land Over who built up a thirty four zip lead,

630
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: heading it to halftime and cruise to the finish line.

631
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: And now we are joined Barrat boy just about to

632
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: get a pump in. Nick shook, he shook ee. The

633
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: Giants woke up today. Field dangerous Yeah. Um, you know

634
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: there's one guy who's dangerous on that team who's not

635
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: named sae Kwon Barkley. It might be Eli meaning, oh well,

636
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: let's hear about it. Four hundred nineties seven yards, three

637
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: touchdowns and he's spreading the ball around everyone not named

638
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham since he didn't play. Both Shepherds caught a

639
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: touchdown pass and Benny Fowler, formerly of the Broncos, kind

640
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: a touchdown pass as well. Corey Coleman with a play yeah,

641
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: and he almost scored one two he went out of

642
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: bound to the two yard line. So this this Giant's

643
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: offense is playing a lot better lately. Obviously it has

644
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: a lot to do with se Kwon Barkley and what

645
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: he can do. And uh really punched the Redskins in

646
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 1: the mouth. The Barkley touchdown is you know, one cut

647
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: nice hole opened up by the old line which has

648
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: gotten so much better. And uh, you know, Eli was

649
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 1: getting killed for reason because he wasn't playing well, but

650
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: he was getting no protection. This line has gotten a

651
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: lot better and they've won four or five because of it.

652
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: And once he hit the whole he's just gone, yeah, absolutely,

653
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: And and he helps soften up a defense. I mean,

654
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 1: it's a little bit harder to go after Eli Manning

655
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 1: when you got to account for what se Kwan can

656
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: do in space, and and he did it at every

657
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: level to day. I mean, whether it was a short

658
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: run where he's running guys over and getting extra yards,

659
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 1: or he's going long or anywhere in between. He had

660
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 1: a really good game. We go ahead. I just thought

661
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 1: it was interested. After the game, Eli Manning said, I

662
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: think we're starting to figure out that the offense goes

663
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: through sequa, which if you were if they're not attempted

664
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: to make that the case, I mean, I I don't know.

665
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: It couldn't right. It seems like it always has been.

666
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: If you thought that that Eli Manning was the type

667
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: of person to send a message this way, you would

668
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: almost think like, hey, this happened on the day without

669
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: od B there. But I don't think Eli Manning is

670
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: that type of person where he's trying to send some

671
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: mess No, I don't know where to and what epic

672
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: xaster for the Redskins, whose season could not be a

673
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: bigger mess right now, This this chain of of drives

674
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 1: leading up until what must have been a garbage time

675
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 1: scenario in the fourth quarter, punt punt, punt interception, punt

676
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 1: punt interception, punt punt punt downs. Bye Bye, Mark Sanchez

677
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 1: zero point zero passer rating. The silver lining. Josh Johnson

678
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: gets to play next week. He was he named the

679
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:30,239
Speaker 1: starter already. Uh, he wasn't specifically named the starter, but

680
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: he named himself the starter. He did. It's funny on

681
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: on the dot com. I wrote a piece this week

682
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 1: about Sanchez, just that I was happy that he got back.

683
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: He's back in the NFL and has a chance that

684
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: maybe if someone else get you know, show maybe it's

685
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: not you know, he's not all but fumble, maybe he

686
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: could be in the middle of a race a little bit.

687
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: I didn't think he was necessarily going to play well,

688
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 1: but this is not going to cut it, And that

689
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: was probably there's a chance that's the last time you

690
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: see Marks. Yeah, it's not gonna last. Long fourteen attempts

691
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,959
Speaker 1: for thirty eight yards and two picks. Come on, I

692
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 1: mean just not even trying. That's one of the picks.

693
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 1: I mean, not him. I'm saying the Redskins as an organization,

694
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: I don't know sixteen here. I think this is a

695
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: perfect setup for the San Diego Fleet of that other league,

696
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 1: where they're getting this guy warmed up in an NFL

697
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 1: climate to go for them first. Looking even better, it's

698
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: their budding star Josh Johnson come by tickets. Now, imagine

699
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 1: dominating at the NFL level. And then you go to

700
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 1: the a f superstar. It's so rare to see an

701
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 1: injury like Alex Smith's where you knew right away it

702
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: was not only ruining their chances to go to the

703
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 1: playoffs this year, it was setting that franchise back a

704
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 1: couple of years. And they're gonna miss a window here.

705
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: And by the way, la Letta, Eli's backup came in

706
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: went over five with a pick. So Eli is not

707
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,439
Speaker 1: only preventing them from draft to success there, he's making

708
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: sure people he's winning now by so much. People can

709
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,439
Speaker 1: see that law Letta has not ready either. Well maybe

710
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: he is. Matthew, to your point, I smell it now

711
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: a three year, sixty million dollar extension coming up in

712
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: about a month there. So let's move on out of

713
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: a pistol showing a little fly sweep motion. Muons pulls

714
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: the ball backgrowds ball, ride up and channel near side.

715
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: Channel forty kindles the black Secty Chinley. He is done.

716
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 1: Ston told Channel eighty five yards, welcome to the thousand

717
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 1: yard clumb I can't let's stop by you. Ted Robinson

718
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 1: k n b R with the call. George Kittle caught

719
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,400
Speaker 1: an eighty five yard touchdown pass on his way to

720
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: two D ten yards receiving. Uh, he's the first Niners

721
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: touched tight ends ever go over with thousand Who would

722
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 1: have thought that all the great Guyoa not a history

723
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,399
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty Niners berry of the Broncos while

724
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: they get out to a twenty nothing lead and and

725
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,040
Speaker 1: end up winning fourteen. They beat the Denver Broncos Nick

726
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 1: Shook in a game where you would think with the

727
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,879
Speaker 1: Broncos hanging in for a playoff spot that they would

728
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: take care of. Is this other way around? Yeah? They

729
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: came out like they forgot that they had a game

730
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 1: to play today. I can't happen in that spot. It

731
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: will it reflectively poorly on advanced Joseph. But before we

732
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 1: go there, I mean they they simply did not come

733
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 1: out to play football. They thought the Niners are gonna

734
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: lay down. That's the way they carried themselves the entire

735
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 1: first half. And I know they were missing Emmanuel Sanders

736
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: on Offen, missing a lot of Chris Harris. Harris, is

737
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 1: Chris Harris, Chris Harris. But they looked Chris Harris and

738
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 1: it's the game. Yeah, but they looked they looked unprepared.

739
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 1: But don't forget their best cornerback, Chris Harris. Harris come

740
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 1: a Chris not active today, Chris Harris Jr. Yeah, I

741
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: was gonna say, don't forget about Senior. Senior didn't play

742
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 1: either six Like, can I go home now? It's like

743
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 1: I waited around for this now. But No, the Broncos

744
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: came out flat. They put themselves in a huge hole halftime.

745
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:53,839
Speaker 1: They had to try to spend the entire second half

746
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 1: coming back. They fell short. They went They came up

747
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,720
Speaker 1: short on fourth down twice with some questionable play calling.

748
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: It took him forever to get in the end zone.

749
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 1: When they did score their second touchdown, of the game,

750
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 1: and they just were out played for the majority of

751
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:07,879
Speaker 1: the They didn't have enough time to come back because

752
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 1: of what they did in the first I think it

753
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: was the Kyle Shanahan sticking in always ear factor a

754
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: little revenge games for not hiring him as the Broncos

755
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 1: coach because he was a little too worried that Shanahan

756
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: would be the type of guy who would want to

757
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 1: have a lot of personnel, uh say, and then Shanahan's

758
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 1: out there making uh George Kittle's the best tight end

759
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 1: in the league right now. We'll give Kudo credit for that,

760
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:33,839
Speaker 1: But Jeffrey Wilson running for ninety yards and Nick your

761
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: three thirty and two, I mean, it is crazy. There's

762
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: somehow I'm still just as impressed with Kyle Shannon and

763
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: even though they're three intent, I don't care. Yeah, I

764
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: think we give him a pass for defense because the

765
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,439
Speaker 1: forty Niners defense has been awful ever since he got there.

766
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,840
Speaker 1: But there's no question he's one of the best offensive

767
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: minds in football and he would be scooped up immediately

768
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: at the forty Niners ever got rid of him. They

769
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 1: probably could have won this game by another score, but

770
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 1: they turned into they shifted into uh playing out to

771
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,399
Speaker 1: lose mode until the end when they needed a first down,

772
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 1: like real quick. What happened to Philip Lindsay today? After

773
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 1: such an incredible performance a week ago. His carriers weren't consistent.

774
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: They didn't get in the ball when you think they would,

775
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 1: and then when they did they saw some production, but

776
00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 1: it just wasn't enough. And they had they were playing

777
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: from behind pretty early. There was a big fourth down

778
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 1: and three I believe where they swung it out to him.

779
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 1: It could not get the first end, one time as

780
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 1: a run, another time as a swing pass, both times

781
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: in the yard. It's the problem with doing the schedule

782
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 1: thing with these six and six type of thing, teams

783
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 1: too far out because you're like, oh, that Broncos having

784
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 1: easy schedule. But there's six and six for a reason.

785
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 1: And even though they didn't lose a lot of players

786
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: to injury, it's like you gotta go, yeah, you gotta win. Well,

787
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,800
Speaker 1: Chris Harrison, so that's gonna hurt them next week against

788
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 1: the Browns. Well, you got Baker Mayfield, the guy who

789
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 1: loves to go downfield, and who's missing Chris Harris. Let's

790
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,439
Speaker 1: hampty backfield for Donald on third down in a long

791
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: five inside the ten, He drops back to throw, looks

792
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 1: over the middle, flushed out of the pocket, rolling right,

793
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: extends to play pivots back to his left, still scrambling,

794
00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,320
Speaker 1: gets to the fifteen yard lawn. Pearls went in to

795
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:03,840
Speaker 1: the ends. All it's caught, touchdown, Robbie Anderson. What a

796
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 1: play by Sam Donald. Bob was choosing with the call

797
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:14,359
Speaker 1: Jets Radio Network. Sam Donald gave Jets fans up up

798
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: a lead on Sunday. His return to the lineup produced

799
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 1: the desired effect for the Jets some life. The rookie

800
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,360
Speaker 1: led to second half scoring drives, the second, putting the

801
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 1: Jets a head for good late in the fourth quarter

802
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: to twenty three win over the Bills in the matchup

803
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 1: of two top ten picks behind center shook Um. It

804
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: could not have started worse for the Jets. Um. As

805
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 1: Donald comes out, they get off slow start. He goes

806
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: back to the locker room with looks what looks like

807
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,879
Speaker 1: a reaggravation of the foot injury, and you're thinking, oh

808
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,280
Speaker 1: my god, it cannot get worse. He comes back out

809
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: and once he warms up, he does some special things.

810
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 1: He starts cooking and helps him overcome and early deficit

811
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: and outshines Josh Allen in the second half is really

812
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: Donald stage, and he performed pretty well for the most part. Now,

813
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 1: he had that know, textbook rookie mistake where he forces

814
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:03,839
Speaker 1: the ball and tries to do a little too much,

815
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: which he's been doing since his USC days. But he

816
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 1: also get you know, you got the positive from his

817
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: USC days because he led that that go ahead touchdown

818
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: drive a beautiful throw to Robby Anderson down the sideline.

819
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: Earlier in that quarter he had scrambled and thrown the

820
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: touchdown that we heard there on the clip, and overall,

821
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: this is the type of production I think you want

822
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 1: out of this guy. Now, it was a little peculiar,

823
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,360
Speaker 1: and you think if maybe Todd Bowles is feeling a

824
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 1: little more stable in his employment, they might have not

825
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:31,879
Speaker 1: played him, you'd think, right, because he's had this foot injury.

826
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 1: He missed three. But once he goes to the locker room,

827
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,879
Speaker 1: maybe it's just like, yeah, let's shut him down. But

828
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: you know Todd Bowle's job, you know, it's a little unstable,

829
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: So I can understand what I think. It's it's so

830
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:43,479
Speaker 1: unstable that I don't care what the Jets do. They

831
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:47,720
Speaker 1: they have to go find someone to help Donald grow

832
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 1: and maximize him and they don't have that coaching step.

833
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 1: And the same same situation at the end of the

834
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,319
Speaker 1: game there at the goal line at fourth down, it's

835
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 1: a three point game and they could kick the field goal,

836
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 1: but you know, Bowls is probably in you know, hail

837
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,560
Speaker 1: Merry mode. They hand the ball off and get and

838
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: get the touchdown. The interesting wrinkle on that play was

839
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 1: bringing in extra lineman as a fullback to lead the way,

840
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 1: and he took out two defenders and clear enough space

841
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 1: for Elijah McGuire. And I'll get in a plug by

842
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 1: the way for your offensive line piece. Oh yeah, go

843
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: to NFL dot com slash forward to read my weekly

844
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: behind the old line should be slash shook. But whatever.

845
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 1: Well that exists too, but that's good other stuff you

846
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,800
Speaker 1: can find it there as well. But no, it was

847
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 1: really a little bit interesting to me too that they trusted,

848
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,800
Speaker 1: you know, basically the game to an off tackle handoff

849
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,359
Speaker 1: to Elijah McGuire. That was an interesting call. It worked out,

850
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,760
Speaker 1: but um Josh Allen ran for a hundred yards again,

851
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: a hundred and one yards. He had ninety nine around

852
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 1: the halftime. So he's only the second quarterback in NFL

853
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: history at top ninety yards rushing in three consecutive games,

854
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,400
Speaker 1: joining who has a Green Bay quarterback in nineteen fifty

855
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: one named come on? You got this? Hold on? You

856
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 1: could do this. I'll give you the initials ready meal Edgarton.

857
00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 1: Tr Tobin wrote, bang Tobin wrote, nineteen fifty one. But

858
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: he's still He threw a bad interception as well, Uh to,

859
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: I'm sorry he threw a lot. Jermaine Johnson had both interceptions,

860
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 1: so and and from the Donald angle, those turnovers do

861
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: scare me because you hear that they were in college.

862
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 1: When he scrambles when there's pressure, sometimes he throws it up.

863
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 1: You gotta smooth that out. But he's making some throws

864
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: in this game, and we've seen another. There's reason for

865
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 1: hope with Donald. This was the textbook Donald game. I mean,

866
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,800
Speaker 1: this is everything good and bad about him, and luckily

867
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 1: there was more good than bad and it produced to

868
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 1: win for them today. Please tell me that Matt Milano,

869
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 1: who is Luke Keickley after taxes, is not Seriously, I'm

870
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:43,480
Speaker 1: a huge fan of him after tax but is that good?

871
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: Is is he better or worse. If it's after taxes,

872
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,280
Speaker 1: what's less, he made less money, they've taken the government

873
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 1: is taken away. He's quickly light. Okay, okay, it's like

874
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: New York to like, you know, there's a lot of

875
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: tax unless the bills just don't pay their taxes, and

876
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,279
Speaker 1: then he's the equal. He got carded off, you get

877
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,439
Speaker 1: cut it off. I haven't checked up on the stats

878
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: that at this point, but it looked pretty serious, which

879
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 1: is a bummer, because you're right, he is an excellent

880
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 1: player and he's the heart of that defense. I'm glad

881
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 1: that he's one of your favorite players. I think your

882
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: vanity should be I'd be shook. Is that how you'd

883
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: say that? Probably not? Okay, don't paying attention there, so hey,

884
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 1: nick ums tagline, she's correcting. I thought that. I thought

885
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: maybe you would nodded off. He was giving him a

886
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 1: little out of the business. I quickly responded, we're giving

887
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: him the PA. I'd be shook. That's terrible, Mark. I

888
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 1: didn't see like you better than just playing shook. Yeah,

889
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,800
Speaker 1: she's giving you the business. You already pinned him down. Tempos.

890
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:42,359
Speaker 1: You don't have to go back up to the top.

891
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 1: Of ro. I had expected it was I suspected it

892
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 1: was faulty. So that's why I went to the jargon

893
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: the linguists of our of our younger. But then Dan goes, oh,

894
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: she's asleep. He took a shot that was a bad

895
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 1: job by exactly, So I gotta stick up for myself. Yeah,

896
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 1: I agree. Alright, Choock. Now that we've settled all that

897
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:00,800
Speaker 1: and we know that Chris this is out of action,

898
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: we can say goodbye to you and you can get

899
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 1: that pump punk. So I know you got that urged

900
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,240
Speaker 1: to pump. Yeah, it's it's Sunday. It's chest day. Oh yeah,

901
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 1: that's a fun day. There, goes Shook. Let us move on.

902
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:15,919
Speaker 1: Luck on first down, grows in zone looking for a man.

903
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: He's got it. Touchdown sack Pascal Pascal from seventeen yards

904
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 1: away in the Colts Alley, twenty three to fourteen. Pascal

905
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:30,839
Speaker 1: the Rascal. Matt Taylor Cults Radio Netver're gonna call Andrew

906
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:36,160
Speaker 1: Luck through two touchdowns, including that big uh final score

907
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:40,280
Speaker 1: to Pascal. See why Hilton went for one. The Colts

908
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 1: road win over the Texans. Houston's nine game winning streak

909
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 1: is put and the Colts get a win. They absolutely

910
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:52,239
Speaker 1: had to have. The biggest question, however, is Indie's particle son,

911
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 1: Chris Wesley back in the bold This was a fun game.

912
00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: Is he come home? I believe that Air a playoff team. Yes,

913
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 1: he's buying. A big part of it is how well

914
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,960
Speaker 1: their defense is playing. That they're overshadowed by the offense.

915
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 1: But their defense played almost as well as the jack

916
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,319
Speaker 1: Jaguars did in the shutout last week, and then today

917
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: they really took out the Texans running game, which we

918
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,319
Speaker 1: talked about was on fire, averaging about a hundred and

919
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:22,439
Speaker 1: seventy two yards on the ground past six weeks, and

920
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,600
Speaker 1: they really limited Lamar Miller and Alfred Brute Blue to

921
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 1: about two point five yards per carry. Today. Denico Autry

922
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 1: has been awesome. Five sacks in the last couple of weeks.

923
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 1: Marcus Hunt made a few plays, Darius Leonard of course,

924
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 1: twelve more tackles, another sack, breaking up a pass in

925
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 1: the red zone to DeAndre Hopkins, and coverage. It was

926
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,400
Speaker 1: a really good game by the defense. And then Andrew

927
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:47,719
Speaker 1: luck ball placement and pocket movement were incredible today. T

928
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 1: Y Hilton was more than Jonathan Joseph and Kareem Jackson

929
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 1: could handle. Was it a game time decision too? I

930
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 1: guess playing through injury. He has been on fire, averaging

931
00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 1: about a heart and thirty five yards per game over

932
00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: the past month. Um the Colts outplayed the Texans, and

933
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,760
Speaker 1: this was after a first quarter in which the Texans

934
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:07,799
Speaker 1: dominated and I don't think the Colts had a single

935
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 1: first down. They went up tempo in the second quarter

936
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 1: and luck caught Fire throwing for over two hundred yards

937
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 1: in that quarter. With West one question, because they do

938
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: I I'm with you. I think they're a fun team,

939
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,880
Speaker 1: But you do have the Cowboys and Titans with a

940
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 1: better than before Giants team in the middle, and they're

941
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,240
Speaker 1: very banged up. Do you see them survive? They basically

942
00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 1: probably need to win out. I here's what I see

943
00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 1: as their biggest problem. A lot of conference losses, to

944
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:35,560
Speaker 1: which hurts. Their biggest problem is that their running game

945
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 1: has disappeared and their offensive line has not blocked well

946
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 1: since Ryan Kelly, their center went down with an injury.

947
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 1: They in the in the fourth quarter with when it

948
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:47,080
Speaker 1: should be clock killing time, they had to pass the

949
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: ball to kill the clock, which is not a recipe

950
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,480
Speaker 1: for winning. Because they just can't run. And I know

951
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: Marlon Mack has talent, but he's not a power runner.

952
00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: He's not an inside runner, he's not a clock killing guy,

953
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,759
Speaker 1: and he certainly can't do without blocking. I know Wes

954
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 1: loves this team because after the first quarter, you're going,

955
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 1: you're you're kind of riding this team like a fan would,

956
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:09,720
Speaker 1: which I which I like to see out of West.

957
00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 1: It means that you're you're in on them and ferried

958
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:16,080
Speaker 1: down on them after one quarter, thinking it's hopeless. And

959
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,760
Speaker 1: then they come back and to put up after especially

960
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 1: a quarter like that's put up four thirty six yard

961
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:25,120
Speaker 1: to part up that many yards in Houston, that's pretty

962
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 1: impressive offensive performances to a Texas defense had been playing great.

963
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 1: I think I ride that roller coaster because I know

964
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: their strength and weaknesses so well. And this game was

965
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 1: almost all Luck in Hilton on offense. I mean Luck

966
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:40,279
Speaker 1: was incredible. Um from from the start of the second

967
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:43,359
Speaker 1: quarter on, he was just about unstoppable. He's the guy

968
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:47,319
Speaker 1: of that entire pack of teams fighting for the six

969
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 1: spot that has the most ability to just put his

970
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,320
Speaker 1: team on his back. And like I'm picking one player

971
00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 1: from all those teams that's just gonna say, hey, we're

972
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,000
Speaker 1: going to the playoffs because I'm just gonna carry you there.

973
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 1: He's that guy. Yeah, that's around talent, isn't that good?

974
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,480
Speaker 1: And Jadeveon Clowney, I know you want to get paid

975
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 1: like one of the top edge rushers in football. I

976
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 1: can't jump off sides in that spot that that clinched

977
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,080
Speaker 1: the game for the Colts. And and Clowney, who has

978
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 1: had a nice career but maybe not as explosive as

979
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 1: we've thought. That's the moment when he's supposed to make

980
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,440
Speaker 1: the Aaron Donald play and win the game and he

981
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 1: did the exact opposite. He's made some of them over

982
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,439
Speaker 1: the years. Yeah, what what would you give his career

983
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:29,239
Speaker 1: B plus? I think, I mean it depends if you're

984
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:32,600
Speaker 1: grading on. If you're grading on a number one overall

985
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 1: pick curve, then I guess it's not just that. Even

986
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 1: it was kind of like he got the l T

987
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,040
Speaker 1: hype two that's all, Well, we saw him in person.

988
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 1: He he has he's one playoff games for them. I mean, yeah,

989
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:45,719
Speaker 1: it's he's got to get paid. I know I don't

990
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:47,280
Speaker 1: want to. I'm not trying to kill the game. Devian

991
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:50,279
Speaker 1: Clowney makes Nick shook. Look the way Nick shook makes

992
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:54,280
Speaker 1: me feel wrong. You feel a little wrong by your Texans.

993
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:57,640
Speaker 1: He jumped off, he jumped back on, and they're still good.

994
00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:59,799
Speaker 1: I never got off the Texans. But it's a tough loss.

995
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,719
Speaker 1: I that, yeah, that that that was not a good job.

996
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 1: They did you wrong today. It is what it is.

997
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 1: Let us move on. Newton's shotgun takes the snap. Brown's

998
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,719
Speaker 1: coming out a blintz. They thrown in the middle like men,

999
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 1: go up. I got it at the fifty. HiT's to

1000
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:18,439
Speaker 1: Marius Randall at the forty seven yard line, and it's

1001
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 1: going to be all over Jim Donovan Brown's radio network

1002
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: with a call. The Panthers slide into irrelevance continues. Cam

1003
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 1: Newton once again fell short in the fourth quarter, outplayed

1004
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:35,839
Speaker 1: by Brown's rookie Baker Mayfield in Cleveland's win. That's five

1005
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,480
Speaker 1: straight losses for the Panthers, who signed suddenly find their

1006
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: playoff hopes on life support. Mark you categorize Cleveland's playoff

1007
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 1: playoff hopes similarly, but hey, this is huge, undeniable progress

1008
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:50,759
Speaker 1: in Cleveland this year. It is, and I mean part

1009
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 1: of the diagnosis for what's shotgun Carolina out of contention.

1010
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,760
Speaker 1: Is the shoulder injury to Cam Newton that you wanted

1011
00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,080
Speaker 1: to see today if it would be any improved. He

1012
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 1: came out of the gate and hit two kind of

1013
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 1: mid range strikes that were well thrown, I thought. But

1014
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,319
Speaker 1: then as the game wore on again, they were in

1015
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,400
Speaker 1: a hail Mary situation at the end of the half

1016
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 1: and there comes Tyler Heinekee in there. And then as

1017
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 1: the game went on, I sometime, as you can tell,

1018
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 1: when Cam Newton is in clear pain or just discomfort,

1019
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:20,880
Speaker 1: and you can see it on his face, and he

1020
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:24,400
Speaker 1: was frustrated, and he was sailing past his high and

1021
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,360
Speaker 1: that pick at the end is one of them. But

1022
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 1: there was a chance for them to take the lead

1023
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 1: earlier in the end zone where he overshot jerryus right

1024
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: where I think another version of Cam Newton that's a

1025
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 1: trade of his. But another version of Cam Newton would

1026
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:38,640
Speaker 1: have made that. So I don't know if it's all

1027
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,080
Speaker 1: the shoulder thing or if it was also a frigid

1028
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,239
Speaker 1: cold there. But he was vastly outplayed by Baker Mayfield

1029
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,439
Speaker 1: and a Brown's offense to kind of slowed down during

1030
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 1: at one point of this game, but then found a

1031
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:53,279
Speaker 1: way with creativity, incredibly creative plays. They used Jarvis Landry

1032
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: on a touchdown short touchdown run. Then this second play

1033
00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: that woke up the Brown's offense where Baker Mayfield had

1034
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 1: to do a sleight of hand and basically it was

1035
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,839
Speaker 1: an interior type of run where Jarvis Landy's shot up

1036
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 1: through the defense for fifty something yards to set up

1037
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 1: a touchdown. I I don't want to gush over Baker,

1038
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 1: maybe you can go watch this yourself, but what I'm

1039
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 1: seeing is how much they trust him because there's all

1040
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,840
Speaker 1: these little sleight of hand plays. There is a statue

1041
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 1: of liberty handoff to Nick Chubb and he just sees

1042
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 1: the field because they were sending free rushers at him,

1043
00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 1: and he's dumping it off to not the first not

1044
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 1: trying to force it to the first guy, but finding

1045
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 1: the third or fourth option for positive yardage and positive plays.

1046
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,919
Speaker 1: And if you I know, we had the interceptions early

1047
00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 1: last week where I think he's trying to make something

1048
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:42,879
Speaker 1: happen and there was not as best throws. But if

1049
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,640
Speaker 1: you take the second half of that game against the

1050
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:48,520
Speaker 1: Texans and package it with this, it is a thing

1051
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:50,560
Speaker 1: of beauty and That is the reason I think that

1052
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:53,560
Speaker 1: Cleveland has put so much in his hands. He's mentally

1053
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 1: there every game and growing that they simply believe. I

1054
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 1: think sometimes when a quarterback plays this way, it's infectious

1055
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:01,719
Speaker 1: for both sides of the ball. They just said, we're

1056
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,239
Speaker 1: gonna find a way to get it done. And this

1057
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:06,280
Speaker 1: was a game where they would have lost this nineteen

1058
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 1: at a twenty times with pass Browns teams, and they

1059
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 1: found a way to get rid of the Panthers today.

1060
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna cue them up first on game pass again

1061
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 1: this week for the third straight week. Um, this is

1062
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 1: two weeks in a row that Cam Newton. It sounds

1063
00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:21,440
Speaker 1: like his arm strength really fell apart in the fourth quarter.

1064
00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 1: Maybe he only has so many throws in him each week.

1065
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,000
Speaker 1: I think that's well said, because he started out I

1066
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:29,560
Speaker 1: thought looking sharper than some of the stuff last week.

1067
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 1: At a lot of great throws last week, especially early

1068
00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 1: in the game. But it doesn't seem like the heaters

1069
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:37,320
Speaker 1: there when he goes to the outside, as he didn't

1070
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 1: even have him on the injury report by the end

1071
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:41,319
Speaker 1: of the week. And I know that's all sorts of

1072
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:44,400
Speaker 1: mirrors with that, but I mean, we talked about it

1073
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:46,400
Speaker 1: on Thursday, and now they I believe they have the

1074
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:48,760
Speaker 1: Saints next week, the Panthers. They have the Saints twice

1075
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,600
Speaker 1: coming up. And at what point do you shut the

1076
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,399
Speaker 1: guy down if if if he's a guy you can't

1077
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,239
Speaker 1: even trust to throw at fifty yard I think after

1078
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 1: next week, when they're out of when they're officially eliminated,

1079
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,319
Speaker 1: there's no way Ron Rivera, with his job on the line,

1080
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,399
Speaker 1: should take Cam Newton out. Uh. It's just not how

1081
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:05,239
Speaker 1: it's done. But it's amazing to think we were talking downstairs,

1082
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 1: like are the Browns in it or not? Because if

1083
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,719
Speaker 1: they actually get to eight wins, you know, you could

1084
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:12,319
Speaker 1: see a lot of the teams in front of them

1085
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:14,799
Speaker 1: because they're playing two of them falling off. And just

1086
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 1: the fact that we're having this conversation going into week fifteen,

1087
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 1: it's pretty say because how long it's been for them

1088
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:24,240
Speaker 1: to enjoy football. The fans in that stadium. I've noticed

1089
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:27,000
Speaker 1: that it is in Spen insanely loud. I mean it's

1090
00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 1: late December, mid December in that stadium is what it right.

1091
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:32,239
Speaker 1: Hasn't been that way for so I mean, they've been

1092
00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:34,160
Speaker 1: a great fan base, but they have something legit to

1093
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 1: cheer four versus fake and there it's a big playoffense.

1094
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:42,120
Speaker 1: They only ran forty five plays today. The first p fifty.

1095
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 1: You know, Landry had two different fifty one yard plays.

1096
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 1: You know in joke, Chop had a big play. It's

1097
00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:49,399
Speaker 1: like they're a big play offense. Ron Rivera's butt could

1098
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 1: be getting warm. Now this is a turning really ugly

1099
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: for this team. Uh, we'll see how this is going

1100
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:57,280
Speaker 1: to play out for Rivera. But there's six and seven.

1101
00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 1: They were once upon a time viewed as an end

1102
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:02,919
Speaker 1: of see Powerhouse, So we'll see what happens there. And

1103
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 1: one more noke, Greg Williams, he improves the three and

1104
00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,680
Speaker 1: two in his five games as interim coach. He's already

1105
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:13,759
Speaker 1: matched Hugh Jackson's win total over two plus seasons. Well

1106
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:14,960
Speaker 1: you can see it on the field. I don't know

1107
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 1: if it's him or what, but they did. They're they're

1108
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 1: they're well organized, which was never the It doesn't insane,

1109
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 1: it doesn't speak for you. That's like a fact that

1110
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,319
Speaker 1: nothing that's happening speaks well the fact. And he has

1111
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:30,400
Speaker 1: another three or four losses since he switched teams in

1112
00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:34,120
Speaker 1: another three year contract coming from the Cincinnati Bengals. Apparently,

Speaker 1: mccaliser w w L to call tayso Ill the Saints

1139
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,719
Speaker 1: is their do everything. Delivered a game changing play on

1140
00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:57,120
Speaker 1: special teams and the Saints offense took it from there

1141
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,520
Speaker 1: win over the Bucks at ray Any Ray J Stadium.

1142
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,680
Speaker 1: Mark The Saints got off to another sluggish start, but

1143
00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:07,520
Speaker 1: Hill provided the wake up call. They did three yards

1144
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:09,959
Speaker 1: rushing in the first half, a hundred and five yards

1145
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 1: as a team. This has been one of the hardest

1146
00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:14,520
Speaker 1: working offenses. And I think what they kind of said was,

1147
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 1: look last week's four quarters against the Cowboys in the

1148
00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,120
Speaker 1: first half. Here, we're gonna take a nice little six

1149
00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:22,840
Speaker 1: quarter nap before we wake up and get back to

1150
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:26,480
Speaker 1: business in the business of winning the NFC. Potentially, that

1151
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:28,640
Speaker 1: play changed everything, and it kind of reminders me of

1152
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:30,840
Speaker 1: like someone trying to get out of writer's block, Like

1153
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,200
Speaker 1: you can't write for a couple of weeks. You can't,

1154
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 1: you're in a funk, you're drinking too much. You're eating,

1155
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 1: you're not eating well, you're not getting along with anyone,

1156
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:41,280
Speaker 1: you have your will you ever, whatever happens, whatever happened again,

1157
00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 1: like then something then somehow your crack out of it

1158
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 1: and you deliver your deliver and you're back. You're like,

1159
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,200
Speaker 1: I can't get that three word article about Terrell Sex's

1160
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:53,759
Speaker 1: knee injury, Like how do I write it? How do

1161
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:56,640
Speaker 1: I write it? So I'm just saying that was a

1162
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,520
Speaker 1: I think I don't they're not Something about them feels

1163
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,840
Speaker 1: a little jiggy. Still. I'm not sure that they're completely

1164
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:07,479
Speaker 1: back in action. But you're getting the Panthers next week.

1165
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 1: That should help you bring I didn't mean it that way.

1166
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 1: I think it's a division game on the road against

1167
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,280
Speaker 1: a division opponent they've struggled with. Any way that you

1168
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 1: can win the game, especially going away by two scores

1169
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,360
Speaker 1: is a is a great win. Like, I don't think

1170
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 1: they need to be knocked at off for not putting

1171
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 1: up a ton of yards, although against Tampa is surprising.

1172
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 1: Tampa has been playing better on defense, no doubt, but

1173
00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:32,160
Speaker 1: it is surprising. I think their their defense again put

1174
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:35,200
Speaker 1: it was partly because their defense played a solid game.

1175
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,520
Speaker 1: Mike Evans was sort of on and off the field

1176
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 1: banged up, and that took something way Winston Winston that

1177
00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:43,560
Speaker 1: it was it was two halves because they looked awesome

1178
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 1: in the first half and then it fell apart. By

1179
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 1: the way, I'm not giving the m v P to Mahomes.

1180
00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:49,320
Speaker 1: Three games is a is a ton in the NFL,

1181
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 1: and I don't know why there's such a rush to

1182
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,040
Speaker 1: like give, you know, to kind of decide or change

1183
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,720
Speaker 1: every week. Drew Brees has had an unbelievable season. I

1184
00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:58,920
Speaker 1: would give it to Mahomes right now, but three games

1185
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:00,640
Speaker 1: is a lot, and I think I think it's close

1186
00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:02,480
Speaker 1: enough that he could win the m v PA. It's

1187
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:04,439
Speaker 1: a lot. I don't think anybody said it was a lot,

1188
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 1: but I feel like Mahomes over the past two weeks

1189
00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:10,280
Speaker 1: with two more dynamic performances coupled with Brees, who was

1190
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 1: one touchdown in the last eight quarters, right, but there

1191
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 1: there's twelve quarters left as s and Injurbrees this season

1192
00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:18,640
Speaker 1: has been so exceptional that I think he's right there

1193
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 1: behind him if Mahomes slip. Yeah, I mean my thing

1194
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:22,480
Speaker 1: is as always, it seems like it's a bit of

1195
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:25,000
Speaker 1: a story slash narrative and there and as you as

1196
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 1: you get more and more of these mahomes plays doing

1197
00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 1: things that no one's ever done, it's making it tougher

1198
00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:32,680
Speaker 1: for Drew Brees to achieve. By the way, the Bucks

1199
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:34,240
Speaker 1: this is a status I guess a lot of people

1200
00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:36,480
Speaker 1: probably don't know, but it's you know, driven by a

1201
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:39,240
Speaker 1: total yardage and all that. They entered this game with

1202
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 1: the number one ranked offense. They had just eighty one

1203
00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,440
Speaker 1: yards in the second half here. So the Saints d

1204
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:47,360
Speaker 1: just like they did in Dallas. Uh they showed up

1205
00:58:47,400 --> 00:58:50,320
Speaker 1: to play against Dallas. They showed up to play. Uh So,

1206
00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:55,080
Speaker 1: even when the offenses hasn't been cooking the last we

1207
00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:56,960
Speaker 1: need to come up with a new way of doing it.

1208
00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,000
Speaker 1: All right, let us move on. Oh, by the way,

1209
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:04,280
Speaker 1: um Erica, can we check in with zoll act see

1210
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,320
Speaker 1: if there's anything else from this I can replay it.

1211
00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 1: Maybe it just didn't play there. The cycle backs that

1212
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 1: a little bit later tonight. Drive success rate. That's what

Speaker 1: time consecutive passage without an interception Aaron Rogers three and

1221
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,240
Speaker 1: fifty nine in a row, and he does it in

1222
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:57,480
Speaker 1: style in the last season take on. You can get

1223
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:02,240
Speaker 1: nice record there, Wayne Larvy, Packers Radio Network. Aaron Rodgers

1224
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 1: threw two touchdown passes. He said that NFL interception free

1225
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:10,240
Speaker 1: record as well, and the Packers beat the Falcons. They

1226
01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 1: win their first game under interim coach head coach interim

1227
01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:16,919
Speaker 1: head coach Joe Bildman. Uh if only Green Bay could

1228
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:20,600
Speaker 1: play the flat lining Falcons every week. West. You saw

1229
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 1: a little extra life in old number twelve today. Yeah.

1230
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,440
Speaker 1: A lot of this is because of the opponent, and

1231
01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:30,800
Speaker 1: some of it is you can see tangible progress from

1232
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:33,760
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers as far as how he navigated the pocket,

1233
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:37,000
Speaker 1: how he's moving on that knee pressure that he couldn't

1234
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 1: escape earlier in the year, he escaped in this game.

1235
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:43,400
Speaker 1: He had forty four yards rushing before the half. And

1236
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 1: this game was thirty four to seven, and by the

1237
01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:48,800
Speaker 1: middle of the third quarter they had a season high

1238
01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:50,840
Speaker 1: in points. By the middle of the third quarter, I

1239
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 1: thought it was as good as Rogers has looked all year,

1240
01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 1: and physically the best he's looked all year with a

1241
01:00:56,880 --> 01:01:00,280
Speaker 1: Falcons real quick. I mean dan Quinn is I I

1242
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:01,800
Speaker 1: think one of the better, has been one of the

1243
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,439
Speaker 1: better coaches around the NFL for for a long time.

1244
01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:07,480
Speaker 1: He's a friend of the show. But like there are

1245
01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:11,680
Speaker 1: there is there any concerns he was on our show.

1246
01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 1: It's very nice. Well, he also West and I hadn't

1247
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:18,640
Speaker 1: spent many minutes talking to him before. You know on

1248
01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:20,680
Speaker 1: the show that I put him in the same category

1249
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:22,760
Speaker 1: with Ron Rivera and John Harbor. I have very and

1250
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin. I have very little patients for talk about

1251
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:28,520
Speaker 1: firing good coaches. When who are you going to replace

1252
01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:31,000
Speaker 1: him with a bunch of my friend on the show?

1253
01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 1: How about that Greg seems to have Yeah, No, he's great.

1254
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 1: I forgot he was on our podcast. That's my fault.

1255
01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:41,080
Speaker 1: That's why I locked it up. I locked it up

1256
01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 1: against him. Uh, let's not scapegoat dan Quinn for injuries.

1257
01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 1: I mean this team boast starting guards have been out

1258
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:50,280
Speaker 1: for you can react better to it. They're starting running back, sure,

1259
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:52,520
Speaker 1: but what do you I mean, why is firing the

1260
01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 1: that's admit that your chances were ruined by injuries. Was

1261
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:01,440
Speaker 1: firing him? A lot of people are asking about stuff.

1262
01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:03,880
Speaker 1: That's why I suck bubbled up leading into this game,

1263
01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 1: and I'm with West. It's like you've got offense sc

1264
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 1: Steve Sarkasian because this is now two years where this

1265
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:12,919
Speaker 1: is fine too. Their offense has been good this year.

1266
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:15,640
Speaker 1: It's been a bad like four or five weeks. By

1267
01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:19,400
Speaker 1: the way, mark, your nightmare is not necessarily over here.

1268
01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:21,880
Speaker 1: The Vikings lose on Monday Night, which would lock up

1269
01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 1: a game for you. The Packers are just one game

1270
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:28,240
Speaker 1: back in the wild well a nightmare with the Panthers

1271
01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 1: uh falling apart, and if the Vikings lost that game,

1272
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:33,919
Speaker 1: the Packer what Packers fans will at least go into

1273
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:35,640
Speaker 1: that game Chicago next to eight to which I I

1274
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 1: don't think that there they could win and they're they'll

1275
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 1: find a way to lose. I am not rooting into it.

1276
01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:42,000
Speaker 1: I am not, honestly, I'm done with the Packer. I'm

1277
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:44,920
Speaker 1: not rooting for them to to not squeak in at

1278
01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:46,440
Speaker 1: eight seven and one. But you get, you get what

1279
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:48,600
Speaker 1: you asked for. If that's what happens. The Falcons have

1280
01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:51,400
Speaker 1: scored between sixteen and twenty points for five straight weeks.

1281
01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:54,320
Speaker 1: We'll not get It's not Steve Sarkasian's fault that Matt

1282
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:56,880
Speaker 1: Ryan threw a pick six and also threw a backwards

1283
01:02:56,920 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 1: pass when he tried to hold onto the ball that

1284
01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 1: call stem a field goal. I mean, some of this

1285
01:03:02,600 --> 01:03:04,680
Speaker 1: is just I mean, the three fumbles in the red

1286
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:10,480
Speaker 1: zone that they had against the Saints, that's not Sarkasian's fault. Well,

1287
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 1: it's absolutely not the offensive coordinator's fault. That three guys

1288
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:16,160
Speaker 1: are fumbling in the red zone. That's on the players.

1289
01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:19,040
Speaker 1: That's that's the definition of the player's fault. If you're

1290
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:22,320
Speaker 1: if you're a Falcons fan or maybe even an Eagles fan,

1291
01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:26,000
Speaker 1: like the only constellation you could have is like this

1292
01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:28,640
Speaker 1: isn't everything goes wrong season, Like everything that can go

1293
01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:31,000
Speaker 1: wrong is going wrong, and it's just a waste. But

1294
01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:34,720
Speaker 1: there should be enough bones there to rebound next. Oh,

1295
01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:37,840
Speaker 1: by the way, NFL coaches, you don't have to challenge

1296
01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:41,600
Speaker 1: a generic first down in the first quarter. I mean,

1297
01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:43,760
Speaker 1: when they made this role. That was always my concern

1298
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,200
Speaker 1: that there's such control freaks that they can't just let

1299
01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:48,720
Speaker 1: a pass go and in the first quarter of a

1300
01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,520
Speaker 1: game and save it for when it really matters. Joe

1301
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:54,080
Speaker 1: Philbin blew both challenges on the opening drive within a

1302
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:57,360
Speaker 1: minute and a half. He was out of history to

1303
01:03:57,400 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 1: do that. I mean, it's just, of course is no

1304
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:04,560
Speaker 1: one else would ever think to do something that Marvin Lewis.

1305
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:07,240
Speaker 1: Sometimes in life, though, you know, you wake up this,

1306
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 1: you wake up in the morning, it's four thirty am.

1307
01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:13,480
Speaker 1: You put on your docker slacks and you say, I'm

1308
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:16,160
Speaker 1: going to announce my authority when I get to that game.

1309
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:18,880
Speaker 1: That's what Joey Philbin did. Well, he's letting people know

1310
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. Hey I'm here. It's authority the word.

1311
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:24,120
Speaker 1: It's just like, hey, I'm here. Remember me. Oh, by

1312
01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:27,400
Speaker 1: the way, our team just dropped the thirty burger. It's

1313
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:28,960
Speaker 1: the way to do it. I think you threw the

1314
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:31,360
Speaker 1: first red flag was like the third or fourth play

1315
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:34,920
Speaker 1: from scrimmage, even before like the replay was shown inside

1316
01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:36,640
Speaker 1: the stadium, and there's no way he even heard from

1317
01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:39,760
Speaker 1: anybody upstairs. You just throw it. Authority announcement he's like yeah,

1318
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:41,680
Speaker 1: he's like, I'm the guy. He's like yeah, I know.

1319
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:43,960
Speaker 1: He's like, oh the doctors with the cuffs, Oh that's

1320
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:46,680
Speaker 1: out of style. No, I'm bringing the cuffs back. I'll

1321
01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 1: never forget, like the combine walking by him and he

1322
01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:50,400
Speaker 1: seems like a very nice guy, but he had almost

1323
01:04:50,440 --> 01:04:56,800
Speaker 1: like those chords pants on. It's like, sure, he's talking,

1324
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,040
Speaker 1: which I know I'm the one that did it. Yeah,

1325
01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:03,480
Speaker 1: I could picture it. It's walking down that hallway and

1326
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:06,520
Speaker 1: I stride to him. But I remember you actually talked

1327
01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:08,880
Speaker 1: about that out of podcast. It was like a shocking

1328
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:11,520
Speaker 1: like sense that I just walked past like an IBM

1329
01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:13,480
Speaker 1: middle manager, but it was it was someone. It was.

1330
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:18,439
Speaker 1: Please find that that tape from some episode five years ago.

1331
01:05:20,960 --> 01:05:23,959
Speaker 1: Let's see. It's just had it. And I don't blame

1332
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:26,200
Speaker 1: her tough loss with the Pats. H Yeah, I don't

1333
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 1: want to talk about it. That that was pretty bad.

1334
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:30,919
Speaker 1: You'll be back. You gotta you gotta just think though

1335
01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:33,360
Speaker 1: the playoffs are the only thing that matters. Did she

1336
01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:36,160
Speaker 1: really is true? Though? Playoffs are all that matters? Almost

1337
01:05:36,200 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 1: everything before that everybody for the Patriots, did you cry? No?

1338
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:46,440
Speaker 1: Not today. I did throw my phone where threw it?

1339
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:48,320
Speaker 1: Like how far? And where where I was in my

1340
01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:50,600
Speaker 1: I was in my house did a break? No? I

1341
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:54,400
Speaker 1: wish because then I wouldn't see all my dumb mentions.

1342
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:58,439
Speaker 1: Everyone just tweeting at me like dolphin Emoji's okay, let's

1343
01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:02,680
Speaker 1: move on in the river. They got you still looking

1344
01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:04,840
Speaker 1: right steps up in the pocket, goes to the end

1345
01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:12,360
Speaker 1: song pot touched down Chargers fourteen yards on a beautiful

1346
01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:16,080
Speaker 1: wheel route from Keenan Allen and the anticipation and touched

1347
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:21,080
Speaker 1: for Philip Rivers getting better than that Matt money Smith

1348
01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:26,680
Speaker 1: and another guy on kf I with the call Phil

1349
01:06:26,760 --> 01:06:29,320
Speaker 1: Rivers through for two twenty in a touch that strike

1350
01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:31,800
Speaker 1: you just heard to Keenan Allen. As the Chargers held

1351
01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 1: off the Bengals one. Chris Westling and the Folks score

1352
01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:37,680
Speaker 1: touchdowns on each of their first two drives. But this

1353
01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:41,040
Speaker 1: game turned into a struggle. What happened? They couldn't pull

1354
01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:43,720
Speaker 1: away in the second and third quarters. They averaged about

1355
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 1: two point five yards per play and totaled sixty five

1356
01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:50,280
Speaker 1: yards over those two quarters. The Bengals defense stiffened a

1357
01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:54,000
Speaker 1: little bit. Um And and Joe Mixing, who we've talked

1358
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:56,560
Speaker 1: about all year, as being one of those three down

1359
01:06:57,080 --> 01:07:00,800
Speaker 1: really talented running backs. He is. He's now a guy

1360
01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:03,200
Speaker 1: who's getting a hundred thirty forty yards every week and

1361
01:07:03,240 --> 01:07:05,960
Speaker 1: looking good doing it. He was the best running back

1362
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:10,160
Speaker 1: on the field. Austin ekeler I appeared to injure his

1363
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 1: shoulder late in the game, so that will be something

1364
01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:14,280
Speaker 1: to watch on a short week. There's talk of Melvin

1365
01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:17,760
Speaker 1: Gordon coming back to play Thursday, um talk of Eric

1366
01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:20,640
Speaker 1: Berry coming back to play Thursday. Joey Bosa looked really

1367
01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:24,480
Speaker 1: good in this game. His closing speed on Jeff Chriss

1368
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:27,960
Speaker 1: Driscoll a couple of times looked impressive, and the Charger

1369
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:31,000
Speaker 1: shut down a couple of key two point conversion attempts

1370
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:33,360
Speaker 1: by the Bengals in this game. The season would look

1371
01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:35,400
Speaker 1: a lot differently if they hadn't shut down a few

1372
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:38,120
Speaker 1: two point conversion attempts during the season, they would have lost.

1373
01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:42,040
Speaker 1: Wow that the whole end of the game they had

1374
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:44,920
Speaker 1: to onside kick it so that they just gave the

1375
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,600
Speaker 1: Charges a field goal there. I'm I'm not like gonna

1376
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:50,720
Speaker 1: knock them too much for barely beating the Bengals. Ultimately

1377
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:56,480
Speaker 1: you get to ten wins. Would it be better. If

1378
01:07:56,480 --> 01:07:59,000
Speaker 1: it was thirty seven to seventeen. They were outgained by

1379
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:00,840
Speaker 1: the Bengals. I would not have expected. I mean, it's

1380
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:03,640
Speaker 1: basically a tie, but traff games are real, and I

1381
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:06,960
Speaker 1: think again not in the same way that the Sunday

1382
01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 1: Night game last week was a great showing for a

1383
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:12,280
Speaker 1: franchise that's blown those games so many times. But this

1384
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:14,400
Speaker 1: is also a game the charges have blown and they

1385
01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:16,439
Speaker 1: found a way to get it done. It wasn't pretty,

1386
01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:18,880
Speaker 1: but they come out of that at Steelers home to

1387
01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:21,360
Speaker 1: Bengal stretch with two wins, and now they go to

1388
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:24,680
Speaker 1: Kansas City riding a three game winning streak at ten

1389
01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:27,280
Speaker 1: and three, and they this is what just same thing.

1390
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:29,320
Speaker 1: They got to the Steelers game where they needed to be.

1391
01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:31,120
Speaker 1: Now they got to the Chiefs game where they needed

1392
01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:33,519
Speaker 1: to be big tests and that from that angle, that

1393
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:35,920
Speaker 1: was their job. It doesn't matter what happened against the

1394
01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:38,200
Speaker 1: Bengals today. Just be ready for me. If only yeah,

1395
01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,280
Speaker 1: if the Chiefs had lost that game, then we would

1396
01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:42,640
Speaker 1: be cooking with fire because their chances of winning the

1397
01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,280
Speaker 1: division went down today because they're running out of weeks

1398
01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 1: and they need the Chiefs to lose twice. But the

1399
01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:49,840
Speaker 1: Chiefs do go to Seattle, so if the Chargers, it

1400
01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 1: would show something to go to Kansas City on a

1401
01:08:52,400 --> 01:08:54,760
Speaker 1: short week. I can't wait for that game. Chiefs have

1402
01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:58,400
Speaker 1: owned them though, I mean including last year in a

1403
01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:01,599
Speaker 1: very similar spot where the Argers had one five straight

1404
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:03,560
Speaker 1: and we were all excited about them getting back in

1405
01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:06,240
Speaker 1: the mix, and they put a hammer on him. Chargers

1406
01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:09,800
Speaker 1: do have a kicker, Michael Badgeley fifty nine yard or

1407
01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:12,720
Speaker 1: which broke the franchise record. That guy. They cut him

1408
01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:14,360
Speaker 1: earlier in the year and had to resign him because

1409
01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:16,280
Speaker 1: he's better than the guy they signed in the off season.

1410
01:09:16,320 --> 01:09:20,720
Speaker 1: The Badger. Sure, the Badger is tough. It's a tough animal. Look.

1411
01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:23,920
Speaker 1: There are openings in the Kicker tears, with Boswell and

1412
01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:28,479
Speaker 1: Gano struggling and Dan Bailey turning into a pumpkin at midnight?

1413
01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,280
Speaker 1: Does Erica realized that when she announces on the show

1414
01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:35,400
Speaker 1: that um, she was annoyed to get dolphin emojis, that

1415
01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:38,280
Speaker 1: she's going to get now thousands of them, and probably

1416
01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:43,400
Speaker 1: many of them before he just said that, Uh, let

1417
01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:45,640
Speaker 1: us move on. That's not all she's getting in her

1418
01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:49,439
Speaker 1: rose and got it straight. Drop wants to throw looks

1419
01:09:49,520 --> 01:09:51,920
Speaker 1: looks Rose right side, that is gonna be kicked off

1420
01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,720
Speaker 1: the list cook back up side thought Darius Darius in

1421
01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:58,080
Speaker 1: the foot race at the thirty Darius funny Darius ted

01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:03,360
Speaker 1: Darius five da essent so pit six first touchdown of

1423
01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:12,360
Speaker 1: this Detroit Lion career touchdown. Detroit Lions, Oh yeah, Darius

1424
01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:15,400
Speaker 1: Lay picked off a Josh Rosen pass and returned at

1425
01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:18,400
Speaker 1: sixty seven jaunty yards to the house. Pretty much the

1426
01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:20,880
Speaker 1: only excitement to be found in the lions seventeen three

1427
01:10:20,920 --> 01:10:24,000
Speaker 1: win over the Arizona Cardinals. We came down to earth

1428
01:10:24,040 --> 01:10:27,240
Speaker 1: after their upset at Lambeau last week. The Lions sulted

1429
01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:30,599
Speaker 1: this game away with a seven play seventy five yard

1430
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:35,000
Speaker 1: drive that featured a lot of Zach Zenter grinding, including

1431
01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:38,679
Speaker 1: a game icing one yard plunge with four oh nine

1432
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:43,040
Speaker 1: to play. That is win number five for the Detroit

1433
01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:48,560
Speaker 1: Lions and the Arizona Cardinals on a day when the

1434
01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:52,840
Speaker 1: bottom of the NFL. The teams that entered Sunday with

1435
01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 1: the top three picks in the in the draft all

1436
01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:59,320
Speaker 1: one the Raiders, the Niners, and the Jets. Well now

1437
01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:02,040
Speaker 1: here are the Cardinal also at three and ten with

1438
01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:05,040
Speaker 1: the Niners and Raiders. Uh what a race. It's gonna

1439
01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:07,439
Speaker 1: be down the stretch, but the Lions get the win

1440
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:11,679
Speaker 1: and the Cardinals sink deeper into the abyss. Uh Any

1441
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:14,160
Speaker 1: any more thoughts on this Mark Cecili My favorite part

1442
01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:17,680
Speaker 1: of this game was when they showed a fan in

1443
01:11:17,720 --> 01:11:20,840
Speaker 1: the stands dressed up as Matt Patricia and it was

1444
01:11:20,920 --> 01:11:23,240
Speaker 1: such a likeness that many people in the newsroom didn't

1445
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:25,479
Speaker 1: realize that it was not math Patricia, but it was

1446
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:47,320
Speaker 1: Matt Patricia, about two more handsome than Map Patrician. That's

1447
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:51,040
Speaker 1: it market what else? There's literally nothing else to say

1448
01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:53,519
Speaker 1: about that game. Okay, then let's move on. Hey still

1469
01:13:11,240 --> 01:13:18,000
Speaker 1: a trick coming, the tricks keep coming. Indeed, the Chicago Bears,

1470
01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:22,080
Speaker 1: the team of around the NFL, use their suffocating defense.

1471
01:13:22,439 --> 01:13:25,360
Speaker 1: They get little assists ort mother nature, which was cold

1472
01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:29,639
Speaker 1: and made things miserable for the Los Angeles Rams, and yes,

1473
01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:33,040
Speaker 1: a little trick play Fat Guy touchdowns. The Lord defensive

1474
01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:36,000
Speaker 1: lineman's offensive lineman all in the field and they get

1475
01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:38,559
Speaker 1: the touchdown. The only touchdown pass in this game, A

1476
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:42,840
Speaker 1: fifteen to six win for the Bears over the Rams,

1477
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:45,639
Speaker 1: who fall to eleven and two, could be a costly

1478
01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:48,400
Speaker 1: loss for them, Chris Westling, But the Bears moved to

1479
01:13:48,520 --> 01:13:51,919
Speaker 1: nine and four. And this is the type of football

1480
01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:55,719
Speaker 1: that Dicko would love, and you don't know, Chris Farley

1481
01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 1: probably would have loved. And everybody in Chicago likes there

1482
01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:04,000
Speaker 1: brat and they like their defense. Well, we've said, we've

1483
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:07,120
Speaker 1: said for almost two years now that you can't trust

1484
01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:10,280
Speaker 1: a great defense playing against the great offense in today's NFL.

1485
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:13,400
Speaker 1: And in the last couple of weeks we've seen the

1486
01:14:13,439 --> 01:14:15,960
Speaker 1: Cowboys shut down the Saints and the Bears shut down

1487
01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:19,320
Speaker 1: the Rams. Maybe you can start to trust some defenses.

1488
01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:24,160
Speaker 1: And I think narrative, even even the Ravens today, I

1489
01:14:24,160 --> 01:14:27,320
Speaker 1: think controlling and making it an ugly their style of

1490
01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:32,120
Speaker 1: Jaguars in Kansas City, you can certainly do it. And

1491
01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:35,960
Speaker 1: you can just make the Rams offense look shook. I mean,

1492
01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:38,799
Speaker 1: it wasn't just the fact that the races the Bears,

1493
01:14:39,800 --> 01:14:43,360
Speaker 1: that the Bears were physical. Blocking assignments are missed, guys

1494
01:14:43,360 --> 01:14:45,920
Speaker 1: are running the wrong way. You know, golf is throwing

1495
01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:49,479
Speaker 1: to nowhere or you're throwing way behind receivers. He golf

1496
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:51,559
Speaker 1: clearly at one of his worst games of his career

1497
01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:55,240
Speaker 1: and wasn't throwing accurately, but just mentally, they all seem fried.

1498
01:14:55,360 --> 01:14:57,479
Speaker 1: And it's because the Bears are so sound on defense.

1499
01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 1: You said, shook, I say shivering, because is this is

1500
01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:04,639
Speaker 1: that old story? How's the team travel a Southern California team?

1501
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:09,479
Speaker 1: Jared Goff looked cold out there, and I mean literally

1502
01:15:09,760 --> 01:15:13,639
Speaker 1: for one eighty no touchdowns, four interceptions. Todd Gurley only

1503
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:16,200
Speaker 1: gets eleven carries, and you wonder why he wasn't more

1504
01:15:16,600 --> 01:15:18,280
Speaker 1: a part of the game plan. But he only goes

1505
01:15:18,320 --> 01:15:21,320
Speaker 1: twenty eight yards. Uh. The leading receiver was Robert Woods,

1506
01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:23,120
Speaker 1: who went for sixty one yards. This is this is

1507
01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:25,639
Speaker 1: the Rams were talking about, and they got completely shut.

1508
01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:28,479
Speaker 1: There's a Bears fever dream. Ten drives for the Rams

1509
01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:32,559
Speaker 1: that resulted in less than twenty yards. Every third march

1510
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:35,840
Speaker 1: ended an interception, and you're so right. They cut two

1511
01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:39,040
Speaker 1: at one point in the game. These two like teeny

1512
01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:42,040
Speaker 1: boppy preteen girls who are up there in the stands

1513
01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:44,000
Speaker 1: with their little winter hat in their coats, and they

1514
01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:46,080
Speaker 1: were rocking, they were looking fun. They were having a

1515
01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:48,120
Speaker 1: good time. Then they cut to Jared Goff, and he

1516
01:15:48,160 --> 01:15:51,280
Speaker 1: looks like he's been trapped in like a big gloo

1517
01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:53,760
Speaker 1: for fourteen weeks. Like he did not look like he

1518
01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:55,599
Speaker 1: wanted to be there, and none of this stuff looking

1519
01:15:55,760 --> 01:16:01,080
Speaker 1: like just healthy uh Midwestern girls. Midwestern females just say

1520
01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:03,400
Speaker 1: the weather doesn't bother us, we're here and join the

1521
01:16:03,439 --> 01:16:05,439
Speaker 1: team of at l And then they cut to golf

1522
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 1: and he did. He looks like a hostage victim in

1523
01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:12,439
Speaker 1: you know, deep Europe in the middle of winter. So

1524
01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:16,920
Speaker 1: it's not a bellyful of brat worst chocolate the paramouras

1525
01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:20,639
Speaker 1: in Soldier Field Braving the Elements game. She she got

1526
01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:23,439
Speaker 1: tickets for the best that that is ugly. I mean

1527
01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:26,439
Speaker 1: that the thing is, it's not like Mitchell Drabinsky played

1528
01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:30,080
Speaker 1: any better at all. And that's the amazing thing about this.

1529
01:16:30,080 --> 01:16:34,080
Speaker 1: This West mentioned early in the in the game that

1530
01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:37,280
Speaker 1: this is like a Rex Grossman era level Bears performance.

1531
01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:40,479
Speaker 1: And it wasn't the best way possible, because they got

1532
01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:43,080
Speaker 1: a hundred and ten yards out of Drabinsky in thirty

1533
01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:46,640
Speaker 1: attempts in three interceptions, and you could tell that this

1534
01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:50,000
Speaker 1: Bears defense was ready to go after that first interception

1535
01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:53,679
Speaker 1: sets the rams up. I think inside the ten yard line,

1536
01:16:53,720 --> 01:16:55,599
Speaker 1: definitely in the red zone, and they just stopped him

1537
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:57,400
Speaker 1: three and out forced him to kick the field goal.

1538
01:16:57,439 --> 01:17:00,320
Speaker 1: And in every other Rams game this season, there running

1539
01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:03,000
Speaker 1: all these you know, pre snap motion. They couldn't get

1540
01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:05,479
Speaker 1: any of that going. And I do think there's more

1541
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:07,840
Speaker 1: than just the cold and that they were playing the

1542
01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:11,000
Speaker 1: great Bears defense. This is two weeks coming out of

1543
01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:13,160
Speaker 1: the bye where their offense has had two of their

1544
01:17:13,160 --> 01:17:15,920
Speaker 1: worst games of the year, certainly Jared Goff's uh two

1545
01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:17,920
Speaker 1: worst games of the year. And I don't know if

1546
01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:20,599
Speaker 1: it's the Cooper Cup factor or what it is, but

1547
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:22,760
Speaker 1: their offense has not been playing well. The fact that

1548
01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:25,559
Speaker 1: they had that performance in Detroit and then this is worrisome.

1549
01:17:25,880 --> 01:17:27,799
Speaker 1: On the other hand, I've been waiting for this Bears

1550
01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:30,679
Speaker 1: rushing game to show some signs of life and Jordan

1551
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:34,040
Speaker 1: Howard goes over a hundred. They rushed thirty three times

1552
01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:35,840
Speaker 1: for a hundred and ninety six yards on the game,

1553
01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:39,760
Speaker 1: and that's been the missing element to their team. Do

1554
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:41,760
Speaker 1: you worry about the Rams at all? Are they a team?

1555
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:43,479
Speaker 1: Because the white thing and I and I and I

1556
01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:45,240
Speaker 1: would say I are. I do not. There's a long

1557
01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:47,280
Speaker 1: way to go, but like it was last year, they

1558
01:17:47,280 --> 01:17:50,320
Speaker 1: got picked off by the Falcons at home in the playoffs.

1559
01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:52,920
Speaker 1: And I wonder sometimes with this RAMS team, because they

1560
01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:55,519
Speaker 1: haven't been together that long, this group of them, does

1561
01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:57,760
Speaker 1: it need to be almost like a perfect environment for

1562
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:00,559
Speaker 1: them to make it happen. It's like this, you put

1563
01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:02,800
Speaker 1: them in this situation, it looks like a non non

1564
01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:05,599
Speaker 1: MS first time, I was a little I was bummed

1565
01:18:05,600 --> 01:18:08,280
Speaker 1: out because I do like this RAMS team and they're

1566
01:18:08,320 --> 01:18:11,000
Speaker 1: such an exciting UH team to watch. I think they're

1567
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:13,400
Speaker 1: good for the league, they're good for Los Angeles, and

1568
01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,719
Speaker 1: they just did strike me tonight as a little bit soft.

1569
01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:18,840
Speaker 1: The good news for them is and for Rams fan

1570
01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:22,960
Speaker 1: in Lakisha and everybody else, that they still have things

1571
01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:25,280
Speaker 1: under control in terms of where they'll be playing. They'll

1572
01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:28,240
Speaker 1: either be playing in the playoffs with a bibe still

1573
01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:32,040
Speaker 1: most likely in Southern California. Worst case scenario, maybe they're

1574
01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:34,360
Speaker 1: playing in the super Dome, and if they get out

1575
01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:36,919
Speaker 1: of the NFC, they're gonna go play in the Dominan Atlanta.

1576
01:18:37,280 --> 01:18:39,160
Speaker 1: So we I don't know if they're gonna be playing

1577
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:41,080
Speaker 1: some ice ball unless something crazy that happens with the

1578
01:18:41,120 --> 01:18:43,840
Speaker 1: Bears It's sometimes about matchups, though, you know, and maybe

1579
01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:45,640
Speaker 1: this matchup was tough for them. I think there are

1580
01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:47,880
Speaker 1: I would not call them soft. I think the defense

1581
01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:50,519
Speaker 1: played pretty well. They have a good defensive front for

1582
01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:53,919
Speaker 1: the most part. But the offensive line got man handled

1583
01:18:53,920 --> 01:18:56,280
Speaker 1: today by Chicago, and I think that's why you didn't

1584
01:18:56,280 --> 01:18:58,000
Speaker 1: see Gurley get the ball that much. First of all,

1585
01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:00,160
Speaker 1: he had six yards in his first six carries. That

1586
01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:02,599
Speaker 1: was midway through the third quarter. And it's because they

1587
01:19:02,600 --> 01:19:05,120
Speaker 1: had no faith that they could push those big uglies.

1588
01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:07,439
Speaker 1: It's not just the chem Hicks up front for the Bears.

1589
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:09,280
Speaker 1: And maybe this is a tough matchup for them, and

1590
01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:11,439
Speaker 1: they have to worry about that because they could play

1591
01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:14,719
Speaker 1: the Bears again. It would be in l A most likely,

1592
01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:17,040
Speaker 1: but they could play the Bears again. If you consider

1593
01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:19,880
Speaker 1: yourself a Super Bowl contender, playing poorly and back to

1594
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:22,640
Speaker 1: back weeks is a concern. That's a right flag. On

1595
01:19:22,680 --> 01:19:24,760
Speaker 1: the other hand, the Saints have played poorly and back

1596
01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:27,479
Speaker 1: to back weeks. The Saints one thing, and the Rams

1597
01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:29,880
Speaker 1: are eleven and two. On some level, you're gonna lose

1598
01:19:29,960 --> 01:19:33,120
Speaker 1: games during your season. Losing on the road to the

1599
01:19:33,120 --> 01:19:36,000
Speaker 1: best defense in the NFL A nine and four team

1600
01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:38,960
Speaker 1: is not is not horrific in its own right as

1601
01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:40,880
Speaker 1: long as you can turn around. All right, there you

1602
01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:43,719
Speaker 1: go there Sunday in a football and that is all

1603
01:19:43,880 --> 01:19:48,360
Speaker 1: thirteen excusely fourteen games played Sunday. We have one more

1604
01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:51,800
Speaker 1: Monday night game to go between who else? Vikings and

1605
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:54,920
Speaker 1: Seahawks game. It's a big like that one. My lock

1606
01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:57,840
Speaker 1: is on the line. A couple of bits of a

1607
01:19:57,880 --> 01:20:00,600
Speaker 1: couple of bits of housekeeping. H Greg, howd you do

1608
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:02,519
Speaker 1: on the rainmaker? This? Well that the rams did not

1609
01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:04,920
Speaker 1: help there? That was the second one. Oh no, we

1610
01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:08,599
Speaker 1: don't need this. We made one went fad too, went

1611
01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:11,240
Speaker 1: one and two? Yeah, well though the Texans I I

1612
01:20:11,320 --> 01:20:13,760
Speaker 1: rained all over your lock. But that's about it. So

1613
01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:15,840
Speaker 1: you hate your batting average. Yeah, so you're one and

1614
01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:18,519
Speaker 1: four over the last two. Uh yeah, I'm four and

1615
01:20:18,680 --> 01:20:22,200
Speaker 1: four and four and six. Well, here's the thing, ripping

1616
01:20:22,360 --> 01:20:25,800
Speaker 1: families apart for our listenership four and six over three

1617
01:20:25,880 --> 01:20:27,720
Speaker 1: or four week span. You're not going to freak out

1618
01:20:27,720 --> 01:20:31,479
Speaker 1: about canoe. But anyone that took your advice and went

1619
01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:33,120
Speaker 1: to the bank with it, they're freaking out right now.

1620
01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:37,840
Speaker 1: Because I like the segment and it's just hikes, I'm

1621
01:20:37,880 --> 01:20:41,519
Speaker 1: a little choke and finally, um, we wanted to circle

1622
01:20:41,560 --> 01:20:44,000
Speaker 1: back to this. By the way, don't pretend like you

1623
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:45,840
Speaker 1: didn't know the result there if it was two and one,

1624
01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:48,400
Speaker 1: there's no no I can't keep track of there's so

1625
01:20:48,439 --> 01:20:51,840
Speaker 1: many pigs that I don't track it and honestly didn't know.

1626
01:20:51,960 --> 01:20:54,880
Speaker 1: But now I do you did? You asked Erica, No,

1627
01:20:54,880 --> 01:20:58,920
Speaker 1: no way, I trust stands integrity. Here we go, I

1628
01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:01,640
Speaker 1: asked Ricky Hollywood. I wanted to hear the entire zolac

1629
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:05,960
Speaker 1: uh soci call after the le in Miami Uh. And

1630
01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:09,000
Speaker 1: she did great work with Cam downstairs digging it up.

1631
01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:12,240
Speaker 1: Let's listen in and the great trip stands stunned and

1632
01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:27,000
Speaker 1: disbelief come out. Scott makes sense to layout that told

1633
01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:37,080
Speaker 1: TVA see great, Scott. Let's us all act. Let us

1634
01:21:37,080 --> 01:21:46,360
Speaker 1: know if you're okay, then we lose. Scott's all. I mean,

1635
01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:48,479
Speaker 1: he has a chop to do. I don't don't know

1636
01:21:48,560 --> 01:21:55,280
Speaker 1: what he says thirty five point six three seconds of

1637
01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:59,320
Speaker 1: silence before Zolak chimned in with I don't know what.

1638
01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:02,160
Speaker 1: Well I did listen to the rest of that. I

1639
01:22:02,200 --> 01:22:05,040
Speaker 1: do like listening to a you gotta be honest, and uh,

1640
01:22:05,360 --> 01:22:08,040
Speaker 1: he was very upset. He said, this is how seasons

1641
01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:12,200
Speaker 1: are lost. But we'll see that that's will be fun.

1642
01:22:12,400 --> 01:22:15,200
Speaker 1: Told me it's fun. Prisoner. At the moment, I'm just

1643
01:22:15,200 --> 01:22:18,519
Speaker 1: saying none of it for them. They're in the two seed.

1644
01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:22,080
Speaker 1: All the matters is the playoffs. I feel like Zolak

1645
01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:24,000
Speaker 1: has some good times ahead of them. I doubt they're gonna,

1646
01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:26,599
Speaker 1: you know, win those playoffs, but i'd give him a shot.

1647
01:22:26,640 --> 01:22:28,400
Speaker 1: I'd put them in fifty fifty to get it by

1648
01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:32,639
Speaker 1: maybe sixty in their favor. They still seem okay today,

1649
01:22:32,720 --> 01:22:34,960
Speaker 1: could have gone worse after that. You're you're right about that,

1650
01:22:36,600 --> 01:22:45,280
Speaker 1: You're ready. I'm ready. Let's go stan Ans. How about that?

1651
01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:49,840
Speaker 1: Did Jetson Browns win? So? How it's gonna be avail

1652
01:22:49,880 --> 01:23:11,439
Speaker 1: Man builds until next week.
