We've had versions of 50 00:02:11,788 --> 00:02:15,108 Speaker 8: like Blitz that we've called, but not that particular version. 51 00:02:15,188 --> 00:02:18,628 Speaker 8: So something we've had that we've been preparing for, and 52 00:02:18,788 --> 00:02:20,748 Speaker 8: our guys were excited about you know, getting to that 53 00:02:21,108 --> 00:02:23,588 Speaker 8: particular call and you can call something you have an 54 00:02:23,588 --> 00:02:26,148 Speaker 8: execut and it's for basically the seasons on the line 55 00:02:26,428 --> 00:02:28,108 Speaker 8: just shows it like, hey, our guys can handle it, 56 00:02:28,148 --> 00:02:31,068 Speaker 8: and they you know, they've earned that confidence to call 57 00:02:31,108 --> 00:02:35,348 Speaker 8: those types of high leverage plays. So I know Spoon 58 00:02:35,468 --> 00:02:37,908 Speaker 8: was asking for it. So when Spoon's excited about it, 59 00:02:37,908 --> 00:02:39,628 Speaker 8: then we're excited about it. 60 00:02:42,668 --> 00:02:44,988 Speaker 6: All right, Let's take a look at the NXC playoff picture. Now, 61 00:02:45,028 --> 00:02:46,908 Speaker 6: you see the Seahawks are still lurking there. 62 00:02:47,388 --> 00:02:49,588 Speaker 5: Nine to seven. Good season for them, right, good season 63 00:02:49,588 --> 00:02:51,868 Speaker 5: for the Seahawks, better than expected by many. 64 00:02:52,548 --> 00:02:54,388 Speaker 6: But they need a little help here to get into 65 00:02:54,388 --> 00:02:56,708 Speaker 6: the playoffs. Let's take you through what they need from 66 00:02:56,788 --> 00:03:00,148 Speaker 6: the Rams, who play, oh, I don't know, tomorrow night, 67 00:03:00,628 --> 00:03:02,708 Speaker 6: and Jamie, you will be on the sidelines for this 68 00:03:03,308 --> 00:03:04,308 Speaker 6: Rams play the car. 69 00:03:04,748 --> 00:03:07,508 Speaker 5: So what the Seahawks need is for the. 70 00:03:07,508 --> 00:03:11,108 Speaker 6: Rams to lose tomorrow and for them to beat the 71 00:03:11,188 --> 00:03:13,828 Speaker 6: Rams head to head next week, or they need a 72 00:03:13,868 --> 00:03:16,508 Speaker 6: Seahawks win Week eighteen and then they would get the 73 00:03:16,548 --> 00:03:19,308 Speaker 6: strength of victory over the Rams. And of course the 74 00:03:19,388 --> 00:03:23,828 Speaker 6: Rams do have a large strength of victory vinag So 75 00:03:23,868 --> 00:03:26,828 Speaker 6: what really has to happen is every Seahawks fan in 76 00:03:26,828 --> 00:03:29,188 Speaker 6: America needs to wear a Kyler Murray jersey and start 77 00:03:29,268 --> 00:03:30,068 Speaker 6: rooting James. 78 00:03:30,668 --> 00:03:31,948 Speaker 5: That's what's going to be needed for. 79 00:03:31,908 --> 00:03:34,788 Speaker 6: The Seahawks to do that, and then they still have. 80 00:03:34,708 --> 00:03:36,708 Speaker 5: To beat them head to head in LA on Week eighteen. 81 00:03:36,828 --> 00:03:39,188 Speaker 5: So go, cards go. 82 00:03:39,428 --> 00:03:41,268 Speaker 6: If you're a Seahawks fan, you need a little help 83 00:03:41,268 --> 00:03:42,308 Speaker 6: here at this point in the season. 84 00:03:42,428 --> 00:03:45,028 Speaker 4: Yeah, Rams play Saturday night on NFL Network and it's 85 00:03:45,068 --> 00:03:47,468 Speaker 4: a home game, back to back for LA. That's pretty 86 00:03:47,468 --> 00:03:50,188 Speaker 4: good pathway for the Rams. But like Peter said, Peter, 87 00:03:50,268 --> 00:03:53,428 Speaker 4: don't we have don't we have striggers, beautiful minds coming 88 00:03:53,468 --> 00:03:54,588 Speaker 4: up with the playoffs this hour? 89 00:03:54,588 --> 00:03:55,508 Speaker 3: Are we doing that this show? 90 00:03:56,148 --> 00:03:57,988 Speaker 6: Yeah, we were gonna do it, and then it turns 91 00:03:58,028 --> 00:03:58,828 Speaker 6: out we're gonna need a. 92 00:03:58,788 --> 00:04:00,668 Speaker 5: Little help to do it.

I pologize. 94 00:04:05,868 --> 00:04:06,308 Speaker 3: That's all right. 95 00:04:06,348 --> 00:04:08,988 Speaker 4: I should look at the game plan. It was existed 96 00:04:09,028 --> 00:04:11,228 Speaker 4: at some point, Peter. I was very much looking forward 97 00:04:11,228 --> 00:04:15,348 Speaker 4: to it, just like I was last night's. Yes, I 98 00:04:15,628 --> 00:04:17,868 Speaker 4: just to pop up next to my fall fireplace and. 99 00:04:17,908 --> 00:04:18,308 Speaker 3: It would go. 100 00:04:18,348 --> 00:04:21,308 Speaker 4: Well, Peter, what'd you see or not see in last 101 00:04:21,388 --> 00:04:22,748 Speaker 4: night's game that you want to talk about. 102 00:04:23,308 --> 00:04:25,148 Speaker 6: I watched it, like I don't know if anyone else 103 00:04:25,148 --> 00:04:27,268 Speaker 6: did at home, like you're watching because it's it's a 104 00:04:27,308 --> 00:04:29,748 Speaker 6: game that has low stakes and you feel like, I 105 00:04:29,788 --> 00:04:32,908 Speaker 6: don't know, but I was really interested in seeing what 106 00:04:33,028 --> 00:04:36,348 Speaker 6: Caleb Williams has to offer, especially since the last time 107 00:04:36,628 --> 00:04:39,108 Speaker 6: we saw him on National TV, which was that Thanksgiving 108 00:04:39,228 --> 00:04:41,668 Speaker 6: game and that was such a crushing loss. And he 109 00:04:41,708 --> 00:04:44,548 Speaker 6: does show flashes like he do that touchdown path that 110 00:04:44,628 --> 00:04:47,668 Speaker 6: was taken away like it's a freakish athletic play. I 111 00:04:47,708 --> 00:04:50,388 Speaker 6: really do think he needs an offensive head coach. 112 00:04:50,748 --> 00:04:52,508 Speaker 5: I know this whole leader of men thing. 113 00:04:52,788 --> 00:04:56,028 Speaker 6: It's such a triggering topic because any to me, any 114 00:04:56,028 --> 00:04:57,628 Speaker 6: coach in the NFL is going to be a leader 115 00:04:57,668 --> 00:04:59,268 Speaker 6: of men. You don't get to that pinnacle by not 116 00:04:59,348 --> 00:05:00,268 Speaker 6: leading someone. 117 00:05:00,028 --> 00:05:00,748 Speaker 5: At some point. 118 00:05:01,308 --> 00:05:03,588 Speaker 6: But I would love to see someone who can draw 119 00:05:03,628 --> 00:05:05,308 Speaker 6: up an offense at the best out of him. 120 00:05:05,348 --> 00:05:07,028 Speaker 5: And I know Pete Carroll is. 121 00:05:06,948 --> 00:05:09,628 Speaker 6: Being mentioned right now, and I know Mike Vrabel, and 122 00:05:09,668 --> 00:05:10,308 Speaker 6: you're gonna get a. 123 00:05:10,308 --> 00:05:12,428 Speaker 5: Lot of sorts of different defensive coaches mentioned. 124 00:05:12,588 --> 00:05:15,548 Speaker 6: Like I do lean towards the Ben Johnson, Liam Cohen 125 00:05:15,588 --> 00:05:18,748 Speaker 6: Cliff Kingsbury offensive coach, because I just feel like you 126 00:05:18,748 --> 00:05:20,908 Speaker 6: got to put all your investment into Caleb. 127 00:05:21,788 --> 00:05:23,708 Speaker 5: They only scored three points last night. 128 00:05:24,228 --> 00:05:26,868 Speaker 6: He was good in moments, but then he also makes 129 00:05:27,148 --> 00:05:29,308 Speaker 6: a lot of decisions where you're wondering where's he going, 130 00:05:29,428 --> 00:05:32,348 Speaker 6: and then the time management, the game clock management. I 131 00:05:32,988 --> 00:05:35,508 Speaker 6: don't blame Thomas Brown at all of this to me 132 00:05:35,548 --> 00:05:37,708 Speaker 6: in my case, like Thomas Brown was thrown into this 133 00:05:37,748 --> 00:05:39,828 Speaker 6: thing and I don't know if he was ready for 134 00:05:39,868 --> 00:05:41,988 Speaker 6: that job. If anything, I just hope it doesn't harm 135 00:05:42,068 --> 00:05:43,988 Speaker 6: him in the future. Whenever it's like Thomas Brown, no, 136 00:05:44,068 --> 00:05:45,588 Speaker 6: I can't hire him. That was the guy who was 137 00:05:45,588 --> 00:05:50,548 Speaker 6: with the Bears. I will say this though. The second half, 138 00:05:50,668 --> 00:05:54,908 Speaker 6: here were the drives from both teams. Bears, punt Seahawks, 139 00:05:54,948 --> 00:05:59,388 Speaker 6: punt Bears, punt Seahawks, fumble Bear's punt, Seahawks, punt Bears, 140 00:05:59,428 --> 00:06:02,788 Speaker 6: punt Seahawks, punt Bears interception, end of game. 141 00:06:03,908 --> 00:06:06,108 Speaker 5: If you miss you didn't miss it all that much 142 00:06:09,188 --> 00:06:09,588 Speaker 5: of far. 143 00:06:10,188 --> 00:06:14,268 Speaker 2: Come on, Oh sorry, so sorry, No I fell asleep. 144 00:06:14,428 --> 00:06:18,548 Speaker 2: I just thought I'm so sorry man. Yeah, of course, 145 00:06:18,588 --> 00:06:20,028 Speaker 2: I mean the game was tough. It was a tough one. 146 00:06:20,068 --> 00:06:21,668 Speaker 7: To watch and we're just keeping it really keep it 147 00:06:21,668 --> 00:06:24,428 Speaker 7: a hunt right now, Like that didn't look like offense 148 00:06:24,508 --> 00:06:26,788 Speaker 7: that was you know, sustainable on both ends. But you 149 00:06:26,788 --> 00:06:29,548 Speaker 7: know to what you were saying, Peter, like, especially when 150 00:06:29,548 --> 00:06:31,868 Speaker 7: it comes to Caleb Williams, I saw those same flashes 151 00:06:31,908 --> 00:06:34,108 Speaker 7: where you got excited. I'm like, oh yeah, I remember 152 00:06:34,148 --> 00:06:36,388 Speaker 7: all of the hype that we saw coming from the draft, 153 00:06:36,428 --> 00:06:40,628 Speaker 7: into the first preseason and into the season. But you're right, 154 00:06:40,828 --> 00:06:43,188 Speaker 7: I think there's needs to be new coaching. I think 155 00:06:43,468 --> 00:06:46,588 Speaker 7: offensive line is another thing as well, Like like when 156 00:06:46,588 --> 00:06:48,348 Speaker 7: you look at the numbers at how many times and 157 00:06:48,388 --> 00:06:50,668 Speaker 7: I just got tired of hearing how many times? Every 158 00:06:50,668 --> 00:06:53,188 Speaker 7: time I heard how many times that Caleb Williams was 159 00:06:53,588 --> 00:06:57,068 Speaker 7: sacked has been sacked this season, I just kept saying out, ooh, 160 00:06:57,148 --> 00:06:59,268 Speaker 7: like you know, you remember the old John Madden, you 161 00:06:59,308 --> 00:07:03,028 Speaker 7: know commentary, Oh he'll feel that one tomorrow. He's gonna 162 00:07:03,028 --> 00:07:05,668 Speaker 7: feel that one tomorrow and into next year because it 163 00:07:05,748 --> 00:07:06,108 Speaker 7: is just. 164 00:07:06,188 --> 00:07:07,948 Speaker 2: Too much of a beating for a quarterback. 165 00:07:08,068 --> 00:07:10,308 Speaker 7: But there are times that I saw too, and especially 166 00:07:10,348 --> 00:07:12,548 Speaker 7: early in the game, well you could see he was 167 00:07:12,628 --> 00:07:14,948 Speaker 7: trying to stay in the pocket. He wasn't trying to 168 00:07:15,028 --> 00:07:18,348 Speaker 7: stretch it too much, but then once everything starts collapsing, 169 00:07:18,348 --> 00:07:20,068 Speaker 7: he's like man, pump that man. I was trying to 170 00:07:20,068 --> 00:07:21,948 Speaker 7: stay in the pocket. I was trying to go down 171 00:07:21,948 --> 00:07:23,348 Speaker 7: the field, but I got to run. 172 00:07:23,148 --> 00:07:23,708 Speaker 2: From my life. 173 00:07:23,748 --> 00:07:25,748 Speaker 7: So I think there's a lot of changes that needs 174 00:07:25,748 --> 00:07:27,868 Speaker 7: to happen up front, and of course in coaching, because 175 00:07:27,868 --> 00:07:30,468 Speaker 7: you're seeing what's happening with bo Nick, You're seeing how 176 00:07:30,508 --> 00:07:33,308 Speaker 7: he's benefiting from being able to stay upright and from 177 00:07:33,388 --> 00:07:34,228 Speaker 7: having good coaching. 178 00:07:35,668 --> 00:07:38,308 Speaker 1: One more Bears fans, you can do it. You just 179 00:07:38,348 --> 00:07:40,868 Speaker 1: get through one more game and you're out of here. 180 00:07:41,108 --> 00:07:42,468 Speaker 1: This is the kind of game where you see the 181 00:07:42,468 --> 00:07:44,068 Speaker 1: final score is six to three, and you do the 182 00:07:44,108 --> 00:07:45,548 Speaker 1: old corny thing where you're. 183 00:07:45,388 --> 00:07:46,628 Speaker 5: Like six to three. 184 00:07:46,708 --> 00:07:46,988 Speaker 2: Wow. 185 00:07:47,308 --> 00:07:50,428 Speaker 1: The Mariners beat the White Sox, ha ha. But actually, 186 00:07:50,668 --> 00:07:53,308 Speaker 1: as al Michael's pointed out last night, if you look 187 00:07:53,348 --> 00:07:56,508 Speaker 1: back in July, the Mariners did beat the White Sox 188 00:07:56,548 --> 00:07:57,228 Speaker 1: six to three. 189 00:07:57,308 --> 00:07:58,068 Speaker 2: It was right there. 190 00:07:58,108 --> 00:08:00,828 Speaker 5: It was July twenty eighth. They got a home run. 191 00:08:00,628 --> 00:08:03,588 Speaker 1: From their catcher, and the night before the Mariners beat 192 00:08:03,628 --> 00:08:06,268 Speaker 1: the White Sox also six to three. This is the 193 00:08:06,308 --> 00:08:08,708 Speaker 1: third time in one calendar year that Seattle has beaten 194 00:08:08,788 --> 00:08:12,588 Speaker 1: Chicago six to three, and this season has been la 195 00:08:12,668 --> 00:08:15,588 Speaker 1: la land now for about two months. It's gotten terribly 196 00:08:15,668 --> 00:08:18,868 Speaker 1: worse since Matt aviran Fluss was let go. It's just bizarre, 197 00:08:18,908 --> 00:08:20,708 Speaker 1: and I try to put the positive spin out of this. 198 00:08:20,788 --> 00:08:23,628 Speaker 1: Here's the deal, Bears fans, good news. You have eight 199 00:08:23,668 --> 00:08:25,708 Speaker 1: more days and then the season is over. Their next 200 00:08:25,708 --> 00:08:28,908 Speaker 1: game is Saturday. Next Saturday, they're playing the Packers. 201 00:08:28,908 --> 00:08:30,668 Speaker 2: They're going to lose, and then it's over. 202 00:08:30,788 --> 00:08:33,028 Speaker 1: And then that following Monday, there'll be announcements about the 203 00:08:33,068 --> 00:08:34,188 Speaker 1: coach and that they're moving on. 204 00:08:34,188 --> 00:08:34,948 Speaker 2: And everything like that. 205 00:08:35,068 --> 00:08:36,308 Speaker 3: And I don't want to hear anything from. 206 00:08:36,228 --> 00:08:39,388 Speaker 1: This Bears fans about you know, we should sit caleeb down, 207 00:08:39,428 --> 00:08:42,108 Speaker 1: we should put Tyson beagent in for the Packers. Don't 208 00:08:42,108 --> 00:08:44,388 Speaker 1: do that because Beijing will look better and we don't 209 00:08:44,428 --> 00:08:45,788 Speaker 1: want to have going to the offseason with that. 210 00:08:45,828 --> 00:08:47,228 Speaker 2: Don't don't start any of that stuff. 211 00:08:47,268 --> 00:08:48,668 Speaker 5: He will, like I just he will. 212 00:08:48,748 --> 00:08:49,668 Speaker 2: Right now, we. 213 00:08:49,588 --> 00:08:52,268 Speaker 1: Cannot go into the offseason with Beijent going against head 214 00:08:52,308 --> 00:08:53,988 Speaker 1: to toe with the Packers thro or three touchdown. 215 00:08:54,108 --> 00:08:54,548 Speaker 2: That's over. 216 00:08:54,748 --> 00:08:55,788 Speaker 5: It's eight days left. 217 00:08:55,948 --> 00:08:58,708 Speaker 1: It's been the strangest stretch of Bears football in my lifetime. 218 00:08:59,028 --> 00:09:00,028 Speaker 2: Peter's under selling it. 219 00:09:00,148 --> 00:09:02,788 Speaker 1: Last night's final two minutes was bizarre. 220 00:09:03,148 --> 00:09:05,588 Speaker 2: It was so it's range again. 221 00:09:05,668 --> 00:09:08,588 Speaker 1: They just look like they didn't know what they're doing. 222 00:09:08,988 --> 00:09:11,508 Speaker 1: I've seen high school coaches, I'm not exaggerating who look 223 00:09:11,548 --> 00:09:14,228 Speaker 1: more in command on the sideline of timeouts and clock 224 00:09:14,268 --> 00:09:17,668 Speaker 1: and what it's real so strange. It's not just bad, 225 00:09:18,228 --> 00:09:19,228 Speaker 1: it's weird. 226 00:09:19,628 --> 00:09:21,108 Speaker 2: It doesn't look professional. 227 00:09:21,308 --> 00:09:24,468 Speaker 1: So again, I'm gonna stop Jamie eight more days. Just 228 00:09:24,508 --> 00:09:26,428 Speaker 1: take your usual loss to the Packers and going to 229 00:09:26,508 --> 00:09:28,588 Speaker 1: the offseason and hope springs eternal. 230 00:09:28,628 --> 00:09:29,308 Speaker 2: That's all I can say. 231 00:09:29,428 --> 00:09:29,628 Speaker 1: Kyle. 232 00:09:29,668 --> 00:09:32,108 Speaker 4: It's unfortunate the Bears lead the league this season in 233 00:09:32,188 --> 00:09:34,188 Speaker 4: headlines that involve the words. 234 00:09:34,508 --> 00:09:37,908 Speaker 3: Really downplays the confusion at the end of the game. 235 00:09:37,988 --> 00:09:39,668 Speaker 3: It's like, how much confusion can there be at the 236 00:09:39,748 --> 00:09:40,228 Speaker 3: end of the game. 237 00:09:40,268 --> 00:09:42,228 Speaker 4: Why is this a thing that's happened so often to 238 00:09:42,268 --> 00:09:43,908 Speaker 4: the Bears. We have a lot of time in the 239 00:09:43,948 --> 00:09:46,908 Speaker 4: off season to talk about them. Let's talk about some teams. 240 00:09:46,588 --> 00:09:49,708 Speaker 3: That will remain alive in January and they play this weekend. 241 00:09:49,788 --> 00:09:50,988 Speaker 3: It's Vikings Packers. 242 00:09:51,348 --> 00:09:53,588 Speaker 4: When Peter put up that full screen about the Seahawks 243 00:09:53,628 --> 00:09:56,068 Speaker 4: and how many layers they need to fall into place. 244 00:09:56,268 --> 00:09:58,428 Speaker 4: It's a little simpler for the Vikings. It's a little 245 00:09:58,428 --> 00:10:01,588 Speaker 4: simpler for the Packers, but where they land still is 246 00:10:01,668 --> 00:10:02,268 Speaker 4: up for grabs. 247 00:10:02,268 --> 00:10:02,508 Speaker 3: All right. 248 00:10:02,548 --> 00:10:05,748 Speaker 4: This will be Sam Darnold's first trip to Lambo as 249 00:10:05,788 --> 00:10:09,028 Speaker 4: the Vikings quarterback, and let's just say, I guess he's 250 00:10:09,028 --> 00:10:11,308 Speaker 4: happy to be a part of it. 251 00:10:11,308 --> 00:10:13,468 Speaker 9: It's awesome, man, to be able to, you know, run 252 00:10:13,468 --> 00:10:15,788 Speaker 9: into Packers fans and I'm not gonna lie. You know, 253 00:10:15,828 --> 00:10:18,988 Speaker 9: they're they're nice and everything, but when you start to 254 00:10:19,028 --> 00:10:21,548 Speaker 9: talk about football, they're they're not shy about, you know, 255 00:10:21,828 --> 00:10:24,388 Speaker 9: speaking their mind about who they think the better team is. 256 00:10:24,428 --> 00:10:27,748 Speaker 9: So and uh, it's just fun, man. It makes everything 257 00:10:28,108 --> 00:10:31,228 Speaker 9: more fun, makes the game more fun. That's the reason 258 00:10:31,268 --> 00:10:34,548 Speaker 9: we play is because of the fans and how much energy, 259 00:10:34,588 --> 00:10:37,548 Speaker 9: the energy they bring towards the sport that we play. 260 00:10:37,548 --> 00:10:39,948 Speaker 9: And uh, it's just makes it that much more fun. 261 00:10:41,388 --> 00:10:44,188 Speaker 4: Sam Darnold's got thirteen wins under his belt this season. 262 00:10:44,308 --> 00:10:45,868 Speaker 3: This is a massive matchup in the. 263 00:10:45,868 --> 00:10:48,788 Speaker 4: NFC North Packers Vikings in Green Bay. 264 00:10:48,908 --> 00:10:50,988 Speaker 3: Peter what ultimately decides this one. 265 00:10:51,668 --> 00:10:52,428 Speaker 5: I can't wait for this. 266 00:10:52,588 --> 00:10:55,628 Speaker 6: And there's actual, you know, monster stakes involved and I'd 267 00:10:55,628 --> 00:10:58,708 Speaker 6: love the showdown here, because if you know the playoff 268 00:10:58,748 --> 00:11:01,388 Speaker 6: picture the Vikings, if they win the final two games 269 00:11:01,388 --> 00:11:03,868 Speaker 6: of the season, not only do they end up winning 270 00:11:03,868 --> 00:11:05,988 Speaker 6: a division of the number one seed and they get 271 00:11:05,988 --> 00:11:07,988 Speaker 6: to host the entire NFC playoffs. 272 00:11:08,028 --> 00:11:11,548 Speaker 5: If they lose this game, well then most likely they're 273 00:11:11,548 --> 00:11:11,828 Speaker 5: going to. 274 00:11:11,828 --> 00:11:13,588 Speaker 6: Be the fifth seed, meaning they have to go on 275 00:11:13,628 --> 00:11:16,708 Speaker 6: the road the entire playoffs. So it's all it's all 276 00:11:16,748 --> 00:11:18,388 Speaker 6: in front of them, right, And I look at the 277 00:11:18,428 --> 00:11:21,428 Speaker 6: different makeups of these teams. The Packers the youngest team 278 00:11:21,428 --> 00:11:24,388 Speaker 6: in the NFL, a teammate of neophyts and guys who 279 00:11:24,428 --> 00:11:26,308 Speaker 6: don't know any better, and they made this run last 280 00:11:26,348 --> 00:11:27,348 Speaker 6: year during the playoffs. 281 00:11:27,388 --> 00:11:29,108 Speaker 5: They won a game and then they lost to San Francisco. 282 00:11:29,148 --> 00:11:31,348 Speaker 6: At the end, they're like, let's do it again, and 283 00:11:31,348 --> 00:11:33,548 Speaker 6: they've got nothing to lose because they can't win the division, 284 00:11:33,748 --> 00:11:35,148 Speaker 6: but they know that they're going to be a wild 285 00:11:35,148 --> 00:11:38,388 Speaker 6: card team no one wants to face. Meanwhile, the Vikings 286 00:11:38,468 --> 00:11:39,948 Speaker 6: are a team of castaways. 287 00:11:40,028 --> 00:11:40,748 Speaker 5: You're talking about. 288 00:11:40,748 --> 00:11:43,668 Speaker 6: Sam Darnold wasn't wanted by anyone, signed a one year, 289 00:11:43,708 --> 00:11:46,828 Speaker 6: ten million dollar deal, most likely to just tutor JJ 290 00:11:46,948 --> 00:11:49,428 Speaker 6: McCarthy and give him a few stats before they get 291 00:11:49,468 --> 00:11:53,268 Speaker 6: to him as their eventual starter. Not the case Aaron Jones, 292 00:11:53,548 --> 00:11:56,108 Speaker 6: who of course has already played the Packers and had 293 00:11:56,148 --> 00:11:56,988 Speaker 6: a great game. 294 00:11:56,988 --> 00:11:58,988 Speaker 5: The last time that they played. Well, he's played him again. 295 00:11:59,428 --> 00:12:03,108 Speaker 6: He's watching as Josh Jacobs was the younger, prettier, I 296 00:12:03,108 --> 00:12:05,508 Speaker 6: don't know, more attractive option for a lot more money, 297 00:12:05,548 --> 00:12:08,308 Speaker 6: that's on his former team tearing it up across the way. 298 00:12:08,508 --> 00:12:09,708 Speaker 5: So he's on the Vikings. 299 00:12:09,828 --> 00:12:11,748 Speaker 6: And then of course he's got all the different cast 300 00:12:11,788 --> 00:12:15,428 Speaker 6: of characters in that defensive backfield. Of course, on that 301 00:12:15,508 --> 00:12:19,388 Speaker 6: offensive line, a bunch of players that might not have 302 00:12:19,468 --> 00:12:22,628 Speaker 6: been everybody's first choice or over there in Minnesota, and 303 00:12:22,628 --> 00:12:25,228 Speaker 6: then a bunch of players who might not know any 304 00:12:25,228 --> 00:12:27,468 Speaker 6: better because they're so darn young in Green Bay. 305 00:12:27,868 --> 00:12:30,068 Speaker 5: Who gets the best of it. I can't wait the Lions. 306 00:12:30,348 --> 00:12:32,028 Speaker 6: They got a bit of an easier game here with 307 00:12:32,068 --> 00:12:34,908 Speaker 6: the Niners coming to town. But this one here, this 308 00:12:34,948 --> 00:12:36,788 Speaker 6: is all what it's all about in the NFC North. 309 00:12:37,668 --> 00:12:40,628 Speaker 7: Yeah, and I'm watching this game closely, especially, you know, 310 00:12:40,628 --> 00:12:42,548 Speaker 7: I think back to the you know, the first time 311 00:12:42,588 --> 00:12:44,748 Speaker 7: they played back in Week four. Of course, Jordan loved 312 00:12:44,748 --> 00:12:46,828 Speaker 7: he was coming off of that NCL strain. He had 313 00:12:46,908 --> 00:12:48,708 Speaker 7: missed a couple of weeks, and it looked like they 314 00:12:48,748 --> 00:12:50,628 Speaker 7: were really trying to force the ball down there. But 315 00:12:50,668 --> 00:12:52,868 Speaker 7: in that game, you know, it was just very very 316 00:12:52,868 --> 00:12:55,948 Speaker 7: difficult for them to overcome the amount of turnovers. 317 00:12:55,988 --> 00:12:56,988 Speaker 2: I mean remember that game. 318 00:12:57,228 --> 00:12:59,388 Speaker 7: Of course, the Vikings they jump out to that twenty 319 00:12:59,388 --> 00:13:01,908 Speaker 7: eighth league very very early. I mean there was just 320 00:13:01,988 --> 00:13:05,108 Speaker 7: explosive and then in that fourth quarter you saw Jordan 321 00:13:05,188 --> 00:13:07,228 Speaker 7: Love in this offense. They try to make that comeback. 322 00:13:07,228 --> 00:13:10,588 Speaker 7: They score twenty two points, but again they had four turnovers. 323 00:13:10,628 --> 00:13:12,748 Speaker 7: Two of them came in that fourth quarter position, and 324 00:13:12,788 --> 00:13:15,468 Speaker 7: that was very, very difficult to overcome. I think this 325 00:13:15,588 --> 00:13:17,868 Speaker 7: time around, what they need to do against the Vikings 326 00:13:18,028 --> 00:13:20,908 Speaker 7: they got to lean on that run game because in 327 00:13:20,908 --> 00:13:23,948 Speaker 7: this game, that last game, they only ran Josh Jacobs 328 00:13:24,028 --> 00:13:24,708 Speaker 7: nine times. 329 00:13:24,788 --> 00:13:25,868 Speaker 2: Like you can't win like that. 330 00:13:26,228 --> 00:13:28,108 Speaker 7: You know, you're talking about going up against a top 331 00:13:28,108 --> 00:13:30,628 Speaker 7: team like the Vikings. I think we're looking at the 332 00:13:30,668 --> 00:13:32,148 Speaker 7: Green Bay Packers playing at. 333 00:13:32,068 --> 00:13:34,228 Speaker 2: An all time high level right now. This season. 334 00:13:34,468 --> 00:13:36,268 Speaker 7: It took them some time, but they've warned it up. 335 00:13:36,268 --> 00:13:38,828 Speaker 7: They've gone off. They're a nice streak. I look at 336 00:13:39,108 --> 00:13:42,628 Speaker 7: Jordan Love so far, five games, no interception, so he's 337 00:13:42,708 --> 00:13:45,188 Speaker 7: right on path. I think this is probably the best 338 00:13:45,188 --> 00:13:47,908 Speaker 7: opportunity they have to come back and to beat the 339 00:13:48,148 --> 00:13:51,348 Speaker 7: Minnesota Vikings. But they're gonna have to be turnover free 340 00:13:51,388 --> 00:13:54,628 Speaker 7: and lean in on Josh Jacobs because off of play action. 341 00:13:54,508 --> 00:13:57,748 Speaker 2: Those dudes are monstrous. We should point out the game. 342 00:13:57,828 --> 00:14:00,348 Speaker 1: The game is in Minnesota, Jamie, I think, in an 343 00:14:00,388 --> 00:14:02,388 Speaker 1: attempt to say objective, said it was in Lambo. She's 344 00:14:02,428 --> 00:14:04,108 Speaker 1: just trying to be fair and balanced. I get it, Jamie. 345 00:14:04,108 --> 00:14:06,788 Speaker 1: It's really cool try by you, but it is in Minnesota. 346 00:14:06,828 --> 00:14:07,748 Speaker 1: We don't get to change that. 347 00:14:08,028 --> 00:14:08,348 Speaker 2: Listen. 348 00:14:08,788 --> 00:14:11,228 Speaker 1: I think it's folly really to compare the last game 349 00:14:11,268 --> 00:14:13,668 Speaker 1: that these two guys played. It's so unusual to see 350 00:14:13,668 --> 00:14:16,268 Speaker 1: this three months apart as being the two divisions. Also, 351 00:14:16,308 --> 00:14:19,788 Speaker 1: remember like Jordan Love had just come off a knee injury. 352 00:14:19,788 --> 00:14:21,668 Speaker 1: He had banged himself up in that game down in 353 00:14:21,708 --> 00:14:24,348 Speaker 1: South America, and he wasn't himself, did not look like himself. 354 00:14:24,348 --> 00:14:26,828 Speaker 1: This is not the Jordan Love we're seeing now. The 355 00:14:27,548 --> 00:14:29,508 Speaker 1: Packers have kicking issues. In that game, they missed two 356 00:14:29,548 --> 00:14:31,748 Speaker 1: field goals. Now they have this veteran kicker in McManus 357 00:14:31,748 --> 00:14:34,268 Speaker 1: who seems to make everything. I Also, just like what 358 00:14:34,348 --> 00:14:37,508 Speaker 1: a great palate cleanser. If must even be talking about 359 00:14:37,548 --> 00:14:41,268 Speaker 1: this game in the same segment as Seattle six Chicago three, 360 00:14:41,308 --> 00:14:43,148 Speaker 1: seems a disservice to the game. I feel like we 361 00:14:43,148 --> 00:14:45,348 Speaker 1: should have had a commercial break just to everyone just 362 00:14:45,468 --> 00:14:47,988 Speaker 1: bathed themselves before we talk about this game. This is 363 00:14:48,068 --> 00:14:50,748 Speaker 1: too good of a game. It's like, both these teams 364 00:14:50,748 --> 00:14:53,228 Speaker 1: with this record. I look, there's some crazy historical stat 365 00:14:53,268 --> 00:14:55,748 Speaker 1: about the last time in this division two teams met 366 00:14:55,788 --> 00:14:59,188 Speaker 1: with eleven plus wins was like nineteen seventy or something 367 00:14:59,628 --> 00:15:00,388 Speaker 1: decades ago. 368 00:15:00,428 --> 00:15:01,668 Speaker 2: It's really really cool. 369 00:15:01,868 --> 00:15:03,588 Speaker 5: It's also like it's setting up for me like. 370 00:15:03,548 --> 00:15:05,788 Speaker 1: The Packers are going to be the greatest third place 371 00:15:05,868 --> 00:15:09,268 Speaker 1: team of all time ever, And it's so good and 372 00:15:09,308 --> 00:15:09,868 Speaker 1: so cool. 373 00:15:10,068 --> 00:15:12,068 Speaker 2: Also, like, I know we've been talking. 374 00:15:11,868 --> 00:15:13,788 Speaker 1: A lot that we're comparing this Vikings team to the 375 00:15:13,868 --> 00:15:16,028 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins one that lost to Daniel Jones, and like, 376 00:15:16,388 --> 00:15:18,308 Speaker 1: I'm getting very tired of that. And imagine if you 377 00:15:18,348 --> 00:15:20,468 Speaker 1: were on the Vikings for both of those teams, how 378 00:15:20,468 --> 00:15:22,468 Speaker 1: annoyed you'd be that you're getting called back to a 379 00:15:22,468 --> 00:15:25,188 Speaker 1: few years ago in a different quarterback and everything. This 380 00:15:25,228 --> 00:15:27,108 Speaker 1: team has a very good record that does not mean 381 00:15:27,108 --> 00:15:29,068 Speaker 1: they're going to lose the Daniel Jones in the playoffs, 382 00:15:29,108 --> 00:15:31,348 Speaker 1: not only because it'd be impossible, but because they have 383 00:15:31,348 --> 00:15:32,108 Speaker 1: a plus. 384 00:15:31,868 --> 00:15:33,348 Speaker 2: One twenty point differential. 385 00:15:33,548 --> 00:15:35,788 Speaker 1: I don't get a lot in a point differential statistics, 386 00:15:35,868 --> 00:15:37,948 Speaker 1: but what that means is that they beat up a 387 00:15:37,948 --> 00:15:39,508 Speaker 1: lot of teams, that they are good. They're not just 388 00:15:39,588 --> 00:15:42,188 Speaker 1: skating by and luck and smoke and mirrors. I think 389 00:15:42,228 --> 00:15:44,068 Speaker 1: this is a very good team. There's part of me 390 00:15:44,188 --> 00:15:46,148 Speaker 1: just from the optics, someone who likes the story. 391 00:15:46,388 --> 00:15:48,188 Speaker 5: I would like that if the Vikings. 392 00:15:47,748 --> 00:15:49,908 Speaker 1: Got the one seed in the NFC, that is such 393 00:15:49,908 --> 00:15:51,868 Speaker 1: a trophy to put on and say, look at this. 394 00:15:52,148 --> 00:15:54,548 Speaker 1: We're not just a cool story. The Lions are great, 395 00:15:54,588 --> 00:15:57,028 Speaker 1: the Packers are great. We are the one seed with 396 00:15:57,068 --> 00:15:58,308 Speaker 1: Sam Don as that quarterback. 397 00:15:58,308 --> 00:15:59,348 Speaker 2: Everybody, come and get it. 398 00:15:59,508 --> 00:16:01,868 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to this game so much, especially after 399 00:16:01,988 --> 00:16:02,868 Speaker 1: last night's disaster. 400 00:16:03,508 --> 00:16:05,548 Speaker 4: Sometimes you have to us your palette when you move 401 00:16:05,588 --> 00:16:07,868 Speaker 4: from one conversation to the next. What Kyle just said, 402 00:16:07,908 --> 00:16:09,908 Speaker 4: I'm like, I just want to bask in that for 403 00:16:09,948 --> 00:16:11,948 Speaker 4: the next hour. And that it means home games in 404 00:16:11,948 --> 00:16:13,388 Speaker 4: Minnesota all of January. 405 00:16:13,428 --> 00:16:14,108 Speaker 3: That'd be pretty cool. 406 00:16:14,148 --> 00:16:16,508 Speaker 4: If you were a Vikings fan Mike Garafalo, get in here, 407 00:16:16,788 --> 00:16:19,148 Speaker 4: Welcome INSI Good morning football. We got to look elsewhere 408 00:16:19,148 --> 00:16:22,108 Speaker 4: in the NFC and a decision that the Cowboys made 409 00:16:22,188 --> 00:16:24,428 Speaker 4: yesterday about a guy that we talked a lot about 410 00:16:24,428 --> 00:16:26,988 Speaker 4: this offseason, Cede Lamb, with. 411 00:16:26,948 --> 00:16:29,628 Speaker 10: That ac joint injury that he's been dealing with. Jamie, 412 00:16:29,708 --> 00:16:32,628 Speaker 10: the Cowboys shutting him down for the rest of the 413 00:16:32,668 --> 00:16:36,828 Speaker 10: season the final two games. After undergoing further evaluation, the 414 00:16:36,908 --> 00:16:38,828 Speaker 10: team deemed it was in there. It was in his 415 00:16:38,948 --> 00:16:42,228 Speaker 10: best interest to not play these final two games. He's 416 00:16:42,268 --> 00:16:44,188 Speaker 10: been battling through it. Give him credit for what he's 417 00:16:44,188 --> 00:16:46,708 Speaker 10: a gamer. We knew this team likely wasn't making the postseason. 418 00:16:46,908 --> 00:16:49,068 Speaker 10: Eliminated the other day, he still played in that game, 419 00:16:49,108 --> 00:16:51,868 Speaker 10: but he will not play against the Eagles. I was 420 00:16:51,908 --> 00:16:53,908 Speaker 10: actually walking into the Eagles locker room. 421 00:16:53,748 --> 00:16:54,188 Speaker 5: When that hit. 422 00:16:54,228 --> 00:16:57,028 Speaker 10: A lot of the defenders on that team surprised by 423 00:16:57,068 --> 00:16:59,828 Speaker 10: the news. Darius Slay in fact saying he hopes for 424 00:16:59,868 --> 00:17:02,268 Speaker 10: a full recovery for Ceedee Lamb was looking forward to 425 00:17:02,308 --> 00:17:05,068 Speaker 10: facing him as for that game on Sunday. 426 00:17:05,108 --> 00:17:06,228 Speaker 5: It is looking more. 427 00:17:05,988 --> 00:17:07,868 Speaker 10: And more likely that it is going to be Kenny 428 00:17:07,908 --> 00:17:11,308 Speaker 10: Pickett at quarterback for the Eagles because Jalen Hurts again 429 00:17:11,388 --> 00:17:14,908 Speaker 10: did not practice on Thursday, didn't practice on Tuesday. 430 00:17:14,908 --> 00:17:17,588 Speaker 5: There was an estimated injury report on Wednesday. 431 00:17:17,708 --> 00:17:20,588 Speaker 10: Dnp there as well, didn't make an appearance on the 432 00:17:20,588 --> 00:17:23,188 Speaker 10: field or in the locker room. Picket me while spoke 433 00:17:23,268 --> 00:17:26,348 Speaker 10: to reporters and he said he has that rib injury, 434 00:17:26,388 --> 00:17:28,068 Speaker 10: but he feels like he'll be a full go. No 435 00:17:28,228 --> 00:17:31,828 Speaker 10: limitation for him on Sunday. Sunday, just something he has 436 00:17:31,868 --> 00:17:35,468 Speaker 10: to deal with elsewhere. Teddy Bridgewater, and we hinted at this, 437 00:17:35,588 --> 00:17:37,668 Speaker 10: or he hinted at this, I should say. When he 438 00:17:37,788 --> 00:17:42,268 Speaker 10: joined the Insiders after winning the state title as a 439 00:17:42,388 --> 00:17:45,268 Speaker 10: high school coach, he said, maybe I'll be back in 440 00:17:45,308 --> 00:17:47,188 Speaker 10: the NFL soon. While we stayed on it, and we 441 00:17:47,228 --> 00:17:50,468 Speaker 10: reported yesterday that he is signing with the Lions, returning 442 00:17:50,748 --> 00:17:54,268 Speaker 10: to Detroit, coming out of retirement. What a story here Now, 443 00:17:54,348 --> 00:17:57,468 Speaker 10: Dan Campbell's saying that doesn't mean anything with regard to 444 00:17:57,508 --> 00:18:00,188 Speaker 10: the team's belief in Hendon Hooker moving forward, but just 445 00:18:00,388 --> 00:18:03,588 Speaker 10: adding Bridgewater and adding that experience heading into the postseason. 446 00:18:03,788 --> 00:18:05,908 Speaker 10: They hope they won't need him to play at all, 447 00:18:05,948 --> 00:18:08,788 Speaker 10: but if something should happen to Jerry Gup, Teddy Bridgewater 448 00:18:08,828 --> 00:18:09,548 Speaker 10: would be available. 449 00:18:09,628 --> 00:18:14,908 Speaker 6: Jamie, Well, it's weird, we out time on a Friday. 450 00:18:14,908 --> 00:18:17,828 Speaker 6: And as we've been spending so much dialogue on the 451 00:18:17,988 --> 00:18:21,388 Speaker 6: MVP debate between Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, there is 452 00:18:21,428 --> 00:18:22,788 Speaker 6: another award. 453 00:18:23,268 --> 00:18:26,988 Speaker 5: That has got us talking quite a bit. You see, Jaden. 454 00:18:26,748 --> 00:18:29,188 Speaker 6: Daniels and vot Nicks have been the favorites for Offensive 455 00:18:29,188 --> 00:18:31,588 Speaker 6: Brookie of the Year the entire season, and after Jaden's 456 00:18:31,588 --> 00:18:33,828 Speaker 6: big win against the Eagles, many of us on the 457 00:18:33,828 --> 00:18:36,468 Speaker 6: show said it is done and dusted. Jaden Daniels is 458 00:18:36,508 --> 00:18:38,468 Speaker 6: clearly your Offensive Rookie of the Year. 459 00:18:39,548 --> 00:18:42,628 Speaker 5: And then brock Bauers went off again in the late afternoon. 460 00:18:42,668 --> 00:18:45,988 Speaker 6: Guys, have you seen brock Bauers' numbers and what he 461 00:18:46,108 --> 00:18:50,148 Speaker 6: is doing this season? How about the stat most receptions 462 00:18:50,228 --> 00:18:54,148 Speaker 6: by a rookie tight end in NFL history. He's already 463 00:18:54,348 --> 00:18:58,388 Speaker 6: eclipsed Sam Laportos from last year by fifteen. 464 00:18:59,428 --> 00:19:03,828 Speaker 5: He's tearing that one apart. All right, how about most 465 00:19:03,948 --> 00:19:07,708 Speaker 5: reception by anybody as a rookie? 466 00:19:08,188 --> 00:19:11,548 Speaker 6: Guys, the Raiders play the Saints and the Chargers in 467 00:19:11,588 --> 00:19:14,228 Speaker 6: the final two weeks. All he needs is six passes 468 00:19:14,668 --> 00:19:18,428 Speaker 6: to have the most prolific reception season ever. 469 00:19:18,348 --> 00:19:22,068 Speaker 5: By a rookie player in the NFL. He was the 470 00:19:22,228 --> 00:19:25,548 Speaker 5: thirteenth overall pick. He plays for a bad team. 471 00:19:25,708 --> 00:19:29,948 Speaker 6: He has quarterbacks that aren't exactly going to Canton and 472 00:19:30,028 --> 00:19:30,788 Speaker 6: the Hall of Fame. 473 00:19:30,908 --> 00:19:32,068 Speaker 5: My statement is this. 474 00:19:32,788 --> 00:19:37,628 Speaker 6: Rock Bowers deserves some consideration for the Offensive Rookie of 475 00:19:37,668 --> 00:19:38,628 Speaker 6: the Year award. 476 00:19:38,868 --> 00:19:39,228 Speaker 2: Kyle. 477 00:19:39,668 --> 00:19:41,228 Speaker 5: I'll start with you. 478 00:19:43,228 --> 00:19:45,428 Speaker 1: The Devil's always in the details, Peter. I'm looking at 479 00:19:45,468 --> 00:19:50,388 Speaker 1: the phrase deserves some consideration. I'm trying to warm up 480 00:19:50,428 --> 00:19:55,108 Speaker 1: to it. Yes, of course he deserves some consideration. You 481 00:19:55,148 --> 00:19:59,468 Speaker 1: know what, the Raiders have one win of consequence this season, 482 00:19:59,548 --> 00:20:02,228 Speaker 1: and it's that cool one over the Ravens earlier this 483 00:20:02,348 --> 00:20:04,188 Speaker 1: year where all of a sudden they just went nuts 484 00:20:04,628 --> 00:20:09,028 Speaker 1: in that game, Boers nine catches, ninety eight yards, like 485 00:20:09,148 --> 00:20:12,108 Speaker 1: just showed up completely part of the game. I think 486 00:20:12,148 --> 00:20:14,708 Speaker 1: the problem is just something prolific to happen, like a 487 00:20:14,748 --> 00:20:16,308 Speaker 1: tight end winning Rookie of the Year. 488 00:20:16,828 --> 00:20:18,828 Speaker 2: It's already a lot that it's a tight ends, all right, 489 00:20:18,868 --> 00:20:19,668 Speaker 2: it's going to be tough. 490 00:20:20,148 --> 00:20:22,828 Speaker 1: But if maybe if the Raiders had more wins and 491 00:20:22,948 --> 00:20:26,148 Speaker 1: mattered more and he's making game winning touchdown catches to 492 00:20:26,228 --> 00:20:29,268 Speaker 1: beat Denver in the final seconds instead of losing by 493 00:20:29,308 --> 00:20:32,708 Speaker 1: fifteen points to Miami or ten points to Denver, and like, 494 00:20:32,908 --> 00:20:35,588 Speaker 1: it's such a bad team. And I think Peter he 495 00:20:36,108 --> 00:20:40,868 Speaker 1: belongs in a great Hall of fame about great players 496 00:20:40,908 --> 00:20:44,308 Speaker 1: having amazing seasons on terrible teams. And I think it's 497 00:20:44,348 --> 00:20:47,388 Speaker 1: a different segment. And also, look if he had done 498 00:20:47,388 --> 00:20:49,028 Speaker 1: it in the year when it was you know, Trevor 499 00:20:49,068 --> 00:20:52,228 Speaker 1: Lawrence and Zach Wilson and all those rookie quarterbacks. Yes, 500 00:20:52,908 --> 00:20:55,588 Speaker 1: but not this year, not with Jaden and not with Nicks. 501 00:20:56,388 --> 00:20:58,428 Speaker 1: I think we just gave him some consideration, which he deserves, 502 00:20:58,708 --> 00:20:59,908 Speaker 1: but I can't crown him the winner. 503 00:21:00,468 --> 00:21:03,908 Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, yeah, I totally agree with you. I think 504 00:21:03,948 --> 00:21:08,828 Speaker 7: it's it's the recognition, it's the honorable mention, it's the consideration, 505 00:21:09,028 --> 00:21:10,948 Speaker 7: it's all of it to make it feel like it's 506 00:21:10,988 --> 00:21:13,268 Speaker 7: bigger than what it is. The truth is, obviously, with 507 00:21:13,428 --> 00:21:16,468 Speaker 7: Jayden Daniels, it's going to be very difficult just because 508 00:21:16,508 --> 00:21:19,468 Speaker 7: of a he's the quarterback position. He's played on him 509 00:21:19,508 --> 00:21:22,868 Speaker 7: a lot more primetime, big time games. But the other 510 00:21:22,908 --> 00:21:24,828 Speaker 7: thing when it comes to Brock Bauers is and what's 511 00:21:24,868 --> 00:21:28,108 Speaker 7: impressive about what he's done. He's doing it with Aid 512 00:21:28,108 --> 00:21:30,308 Speaker 7: and O'Connell. He's doing it. He did it with you know, 513 00:21:30,388 --> 00:21:34,748 Speaker 7: Gardner Minshew. There are no real supporting cast around him. 514 00:21:34,788 --> 00:21:37,228 Speaker 7: Any defense can come and go. You know what, what's 515 00:21:37,268 --> 00:21:39,508 Speaker 7: the one thing you're going to do to stop the Raiders. 516 00:21:39,708 --> 00:21:41,268 Speaker 2: Take brock Bauers out of it, right. 517 00:21:41,228 --> 00:21:43,108 Speaker 7: Like if you take offensively, if you take him out 518 00:21:43,108 --> 00:21:45,828 Speaker 7: of it, like you're forcing them to other guys. And 519 00:21:45,868 --> 00:21:48,628 Speaker 7: so it's very easy to play game plan around him. 520 00:21:48,708 --> 00:21:51,628 Speaker 7: And yet he's still going out there with a less 521 00:21:51,628 --> 00:21:54,708 Speaker 7: than adequate quarterback, within less than adequate support, and he's 522 00:21:54,708 --> 00:21:55,468 Speaker 7: still out there balls. 523 00:21:55,468 --> 00:21:57,588 Speaker 2: So to me, that makes it that much bigger. 524 00:21:57,628 --> 00:21:59,828 Speaker 7: But of course it all gets swept under the rug 525 00:21:59,908 --> 00:22:01,508 Speaker 7: because he's over there with the. 526 00:22:01,548 --> 00:22:03,628 Speaker 2: Raiders and the Raiders haven't been doing well. As I'm 527 00:22:03,628 --> 00:22:04,708 Speaker 2: wearing my Raiders. 528 00:22:04,548 --> 00:22:06,988 Speaker 3: Christ Christmas, it's a cool one. 529 00:22:07,468 --> 00:22:11,708 Speaker 4: I'm insulted by the deserves consideration. He should be Rookie 530 00:22:11,748 --> 00:22:15,188 Speaker 4: of the Year. He's seven catches away from tying Jamar 531 00:22:15,348 --> 00:22:18,428 Speaker 4: Chase for receptions for the season. He's tied with Ceedee 532 00:22:18,508 --> 00:22:20,708 Speaker 4: Lamb and i'man Ross Saint Brown with one hundred and 533 00:22:20,708 --> 00:22:23,308 Speaker 4: one catches on the season. I remember on this show, 534 00:22:23,348 --> 00:22:28,028 Speaker 4: specifically losing our minds, falling off our chairs when Shraigs 535 00:22:28,028 --> 00:22:30,908 Speaker 4: would have Puka Nukula and he's gonna break this rookie wreckord. 536 00:22:31,028 --> 00:22:33,308 Speaker 4: Just last year, I remember losing our minds on this 537 00:22:33,348 --> 00:22:34,748 Speaker 4: show when Sam Laporta was. 538 00:22:34,748 --> 00:22:35,748 Speaker 3: Playing out of his mind. 539 00:22:35,868 --> 00:22:37,348 Speaker 4: I don't care if it's a good or a bad 540 00:22:37,348 --> 00:22:40,748 Speaker 4: team what Brock Bauers has done this season on this offense, 541 00:22:40,788 --> 00:22:42,748 Speaker 4: regardless of who is throwing him the football. 542 00:22:42,948 --> 00:22:44,468 Speaker 3: That's what makes it even more remarkable. 543 00:22:44,508 --> 00:22:46,708 Speaker 4: He is not in control of where that ball does 544 00:22:46,748 --> 00:22:49,548 Speaker 4: what that ball does. He has control of his own 545 00:22:49,588 --> 00:22:53,548 Speaker 4: two feet, making himself available running the route, executing this offense. 546 00:22:53,748 --> 00:22:54,348 Speaker 3: He should be the. 547 00:22:54,348 --> 00:22:56,188 Speaker 4: Rookie of the Year because it's that much harder to 548 00:22:56,228 --> 00:22:59,108 Speaker 4: do so as a non quarterback position and plays we 549 00:22:59,188 --> 00:23:01,908 Speaker 4: have to give something to a non quarterback, Peter at 550 00:23:01,908 --> 00:23:02,948 Speaker 4: some point sometime. 551 00:23:03,268 --> 00:23:05,348 Speaker 5: I like it, Jamie, I would love this. 552 00:23:05,428 --> 00:23:07,428 Speaker 6: If the research department can look us up. Has there 553 00:23:07,468 --> 00:23:11,148 Speaker 6: ever been a first team All Pro rookie at tight end? 554 00:23:11,148 --> 00:23:14,468 Speaker 6: I would assume sharing, and then Shockey might have been 555 00:23:14,628 --> 00:23:16,148 Speaker 6: like I would love I mean, I'm sure there were 556 00:23:16,148 --> 00:23:20,748 Speaker 6: other tight ends in that era. Tony Gonzalez probably yeah, 557 00:23:20,748 --> 00:23:23,468 Speaker 6: but like that's a pretty cool thing. If he's first 558 00:23:23,468 --> 00:23:25,348 Speaker 6: team out prone, I think that is what he'll get. 559 00:23:25,388 --> 00:23:28,468 Speaker 6: And also, in a world of Travis Kelcey and George Kittle, 560 00:23:29,108 --> 00:23:32,308 Speaker 6: a twenty two year old rookie, brock Bowers's far and away. 561 00:23:32,188 --> 00:23:34,388 Speaker 5: The best tight end in football. Like that's pretty cool. 562 00:23:34,468 --> 00:23:39,068 Speaker 6: So all that is is there now, speaking of consideration 563 00:23:39,868 --> 00:23:43,268 Speaker 6: and moments and rookies, I want to go to the 564 00:23:43,308 --> 00:23:46,748 Speaker 6: Netflix broadcast, which was the first time they ever went 565 00:23:46,788 --> 00:23:49,028 Speaker 6: on with this thing, and they're trying to have moments, 566 00:23:49,148 --> 00:23:52,148 Speaker 6: and they had this playoff of the show Is It Cake, 567 00:23:52,308 --> 00:23:54,828 Speaker 6: which is hosted by mikey Day and my kid loves. 568 00:23:54,628 --> 00:23:55,828 Speaker 3: It and stand up here. 569 00:23:55,868 --> 00:24:01,828 Speaker 5: Basically, this right here is Jamie with the gimmick that 570 00:24:01,948 --> 00:24:02,308 Speaker 5: was thought of. 571 00:24:02,348 --> 00:24:05,188 Speaker 6: We got the robes which worked, but the was a 572 00:24:05,228 --> 00:24:07,988 Speaker 6: football made of cake. And then the players, of course, 573 00:24:08,068 --> 00:24:10,468 Speaker 6: as the MVPs of the game, would take a bite 574 00:24:10,468 --> 00:24:13,588 Speaker 6: like the turduckt or the turkey leg or whatever. And 575 00:24:13,908 --> 00:24:16,628 Speaker 6: these two guys, Lamar Jackson and Derek Henry just would 576 00:24:16,668 --> 00:24:19,188 Speaker 6: not engage. They would not go over there having fun. 577 00:24:19,188 --> 00:24:21,548 Speaker 6: They would be nice enough to Jamie explaining. 578 00:24:21,148 --> 00:24:24,628 Speaker 5: That they were hungry and I don't know. Man, Jamie, 579 00:24:24,668 --> 00:24:27,388 Speaker 5: you were an MVP in this segment. You really sold it. 580 00:24:27,388 --> 00:24:31,268 Speaker 5: You did an incredible job.

Understand guys, 588 00:24:45,828 --> 00:24:48,428 Speaker 1: for some of us, it's like, you don't want to 589 00:24:48,468 --> 00:24:51,028 Speaker 1: eat food that's been out in any way. You don't 590 00:24:51,028 --> 00:24:53,108 Speaker 1: want to eat food that you don't know where it's been. 591 00:24:53,188 --> 00:24:55,508 Speaker 1: It's the eating food is kind of an intimate thing. 592 00:24:55,548 --> 00:24:56,868 Speaker 1: I'm going to take that.

I got to understand, like, what's the advice I'm. 684 00:28:41,388 --> 00:28:42,388 Speaker 3: Supposed to give them. 685 00:28:42,428 --> 00:28:45,268 Speaker 4: So of course on Christmas Eve, I tried the cake, 686 00:28:45,508 --> 00:28:47,348 Speaker 4: but I did it not the right way. I just 687 00:28:47,428 --> 00:28:50,228 Speaker 4: bit into the thing like this. I didn't break it apart. 688 00:28:50,348 --> 00:28:52,868 Speaker 4: So then I understood to give the advice. And Stacy 689 00:28:52,908 --> 00:28:55,388 Speaker 4: Dale's did the same thing in Pittsburgh. You really got 690 00:28:55,428 --> 00:28:57,108 Speaker 4: to dig your thumbs in there and break it apart. 691 00:28:57,148 --> 00:28:59,388 Speaker 4: So Lamar had it going on. We figured it out 692 00:28:59,828 --> 00:29:01,468 Speaker 4: because we had a lot of time together. I was 693 00:29:01,508 --> 00:29:03,868 Speaker 4: telling him, hey, when you pick up this football, break 694 00:29:03,908 --> 00:29:04,788 Speaker 4: the cake up part. 695 00:29:04,708 --> 00:29:05,428 Speaker 3: And then you eat it. 696 00:29:05,508 --> 00:29:07,788 Speaker 4: He was like, yeah, I got you, I understand. So 697 00:29:07,948 --> 00:29:11,948 Speaker 4: I thought we were golden. Then we actually got on 698 00:29:12,068 --> 00:29:14,268 Speaker 4: television and I swear the two of them had a 699 00:29:14,268 --> 00:29:16,428 Speaker 4: conversation with their eyes above my head where they're like, 700 00:29:16,508 --> 00:29:18,668 Speaker 4: we're absolutely not doing this together. 701 00:29:19,108 --> 00:29:22,228 Speaker 3: And so it was me eating the darn cake. Peter 702 00:29:22,548 --> 00:29:23,308 Speaker 3: just on my arm. 703 00:29:24,028 --> 00:29:25,228 Speaker 5: You're great, You're awesome. 704 00:29:25,908 --> 00:29:29,148 Speaker 6: I would tell Lamar and Derek Henry that they should 705 00:29:29,148 --> 00:29:32,188 Speaker 6: write you a nice letter saying thank you for your 706 00:29:32,228 --> 00:29:35,148 Speaker 6: attempt it. Then I would have them I would have 707 00:29:35,228 --> 00:29:39,628 Speaker 6: them watch last night's Amazon postgame coverage because here I 708 00:29:39,668 --> 00:29:42,788 Speaker 6: am staying up watching this Bear Seahawks game. 709 00:29:42,708 --> 00:29:47,308 Speaker 5: Call and Lamar, Derek, this is what you do to entertain.

Get me out of this segment. 748 00:31:12,668 --> 00:31:14,708 Speaker 4: At this moment, all I cared about was how am 749 00:31:14,748 --> 00:31:15,388 Speaker 4: I getting. 750 00:31:15,108 --> 00:31:16,388 Speaker 3: Out of this television segment? 751 00:31:16,428 --> 00:31:20,508 Speaker 6: Peter, Yeah, Look, the fact of the matter is lebron 752 00:31:20,588 --> 00:31:22,628 Speaker 6: came out after their win and was like the. 753 00:31:22,628 --> 00:31:23,868 Speaker 5: NBA is Christmas. 754 00:31:24,428 --> 00:31:26,788 Speaker 6: Then the ratings came out yesterday, so the NFL and 755 00:31:26,868 --> 00:31:29,708 Speaker 6: Netflix had their cake and they ate it too. 756 00:31:29,868 --> 00:31:32,868 Speaker 5: He looked for a lot. 757 00:31:34,588 --> 00:31:35,988 Speaker 2: You kilted on that one. 758 00:31:42,108 --> 00:31:45,548 Speaker 5: Anyway, We're getting back after this. That was Wes. We 759 00:31:45,628 --> 00:31:45,908 Speaker 5: love you. 760 00:31:51,788 --> 00:31:52,108 Speaker 3: All right. 761 00:31:52,148 --> 00:31:55,148 Speaker 4: If you're looking for reasons to watch beyond maybe just 762 00:31:55,228 --> 00:31:57,548 Speaker 4: your team this week, and look no further than Mad 763 00:31:57,628 --> 00:32:01,828 Speaker 4: Minute right now. Broncos Bengals on the clock first, Peter up, 764 00:32:01,868 --> 00:32:04,188 Speaker 4: bar Kyle. That shall be the order as we look 765 00:32:04,188 --> 00:32:08,628 Speaker 4: at these games. Peter, Broncos pretty simple for them this weekend. 766 00:32:08,628 --> 00:32:10,428 Speaker 3: If they want to see postseason play. 767 00:32:10,948 --> 00:32:11,948 Speaker 5: Got to take care of business. 768 00:32:11,988 --> 00:32:14,148 Speaker 6: I thought Sean Payton was pretty bold saying it's okay, 769 00:32:14,228 --> 00:32:16,788 Speaker 6: we'll play on a Thursday night against the Chargers in LA. 770 00:32:16,908 --> 00:32:18,628 Speaker 6: That all is great when you win. If you lose, 771 00:32:18,668 --> 00:32:20,028 Speaker 6: you put yourself in a bit of a bind. They 772 00:32:20,028 --> 00:32:22,148 Speaker 6: have had a long break. Well as everyone else is 773 00:32:22,148 --> 00:32:24,308 Speaker 6: playing ten games in three days or whatever it is, 774 00:32:24,628 --> 00:32:26,588 Speaker 6: these guys have had a nice ten days to prepare 775 00:32:26,588 --> 00:32:28,948 Speaker 6: for this. Broncos, go take care of business on the 776 00:32:29,028 --> 00:32:30,828 Speaker 6: road in Cincinnati and get that playoff birth. 777 00:32:31,548 --> 00:32:34,588 Speaker 7: Yeah, and it would be a huge, huge confidence booster 778 00:32:34,748 --> 00:32:38,348 Speaker 7: beating a good team like the Cincinnati Bengals. Who's right 779 00:32:38,388 --> 00:32:40,748 Speaker 7: there on the friends trying to get up. I'm still offensively. 780 00:32:40,948 --> 00:32:42,548 Speaker 7: I think they put out a lot of good power. 781 00:32:42,588 --> 00:32:44,748 Speaker 7: But anyway, with the Denver Broncos, they can get a 782 00:32:44,748 --> 00:32:46,788 Speaker 7: lot of surge going into the playoffs with this. 783 00:32:46,748 --> 00:32:51,468 Speaker 1: One reminder, the Cincinnati Bengals were four and eighteen. They 784 00:32:51,468 --> 00:32:55,348 Speaker 1: are still somehow alive in the playoffs. Bengals beat Denver, 785 00:32:55,828 --> 00:32:59,748 Speaker 1: beat Pittsburgh, Okay, went out. Then Denver loses to probably 786 00:32:59,748 --> 00:33:02,828 Speaker 1: a Carson Wentz Chiefs team maybe in week eighteen. The 787 00:33:02,868 --> 00:33:05,028 Speaker 1: Bengals can still do this thing. There's two other things 788 00:33:05,068 --> 00:33:06,868 Speaker 1: that need to happen to and I don't care. I 789 00:33:06,908 --> 00:33:09,028 Speaker 1: will laugh out loud, falling off my chair. If the 790 00:33:09,028 --> 00:33:11,748 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four Bengals make the playoffs, and we got 791 00:33:11,748 --> 00:33:12,508 Speaker 1: a chance, folks. 792 00:33:12,548 --> 00:33:13,908 Speaker 2: You got to win this weekend, and then. 793 00:33:13,788 --> 00:33:15,628 Speaker 4: All of a sudden, they'll be wearing T shirts that 794 00:33:15,708 --> 00:33:18,788 Speaker 4: have the gone Fishing logo that Kyle made in October 795 00:33:18,948 --> 00:33:21,908 Speaker 4: about the Bengals in their postseason game. I can see 796 00:33:21,908 --> 00:33:24,268 Speaker 4: it happen already. It'll be a beautiful thing. Next up, 797 00:33:24,308 --> 00:33:26,948 Speaker 4: Saturday night, the Rams control their own destiny in the 798 00:33:27,068 --> 00:33:30,308 Speaker 4: NFC West. They are hosting the Arizona Cardinals, a Cardinals 799 00:33:30,348 --> 00:33:32,708 Speaker 4: team Peter that beat up on them in Week two, 800 00:33:32,828 --> 00:33:35,348 Speaker 4: but feels like that was a year ago when that happened. 801 00:33:35,868 --> 00:33:37,428 Speaker 5: It does. It feels like a long time ago. 802 00:33:37,468 --> 00:33:40,188 Speaker 6: But Kyler ran circles around the Rams and they blew 803 00:33:40,228 --> 00:33:42,068 Speaker 6: them out of the building. I will say this, the 804 00:33:42,188 --> 00:33:44,228 Speaker 6: Rams had a lot of build up for a Sunday 805 00:33:44,268 --> 00:33:47,148 Speaker 6: night game against the Eagles at home, and they lost 806 00:33:47,148 --> 00:33:48,388 Speaker 6: and got run out of the building. They had a 807 00:33:48,428 --> 00:33:50,108 Speaker 6: lot of build up for a Monday night game against 808 00:33:50,108 --> 00:33:51,748 Speaker 6: the Dolphins, and they lost and got run out of 809 00:33:51,748 --> 00:33:52,188 Speaker 6: the building. 810 00:33:52,428 --> 00:33:54,068 Speaker 5: It is not a slam dunk that they win these 811 00:33:54,068 --> 00:33:54,748 Speaker 5: games at home. 812 00:33:55,028 --> 00:33:58,308 Speaker 6: The Rams in primetime great on Thursdays, not great on Saturday, 813 00:33:58,308 --> 00:33:59,788 Speaker 6: Sundays or mondays. 814 00:34:00,588 --> 00:34:03,588 Speaker 7: Yeah, Peter, the Ram, they can definitely obviously clench the 815 00:34:03,868 --> 00:34:06,108 Speaker 7: division again against the banged up Cardinals. This is the 816 00:34:06,108 --> 00:34:08,788 Speaker 7: team that you remember, they're missing both of their starting tackles, 817 00:34:08,988 --> 00:34:12,188 Speaker 7: so Verse and the Rams and the Fisk and those 818 00:34:12,188 --> 00:34:14,788 Speaker 7: guys up front, they can really get after it and 819 00:34:14,868 --> 00:34:17,148 Speaker 7: really kind of walk in knowing that they can dominate 820 00:34:17,188 --> 00:34:17,708 Speaker 7: that division. 821 00:34:18,668 --> 00:34:20,668 Speaker 1: I know it was a tough watch last night, Seattle 822 00:34:20,748 --> 00:34:22,628 Speaker 1: versus Chicago, but I'm sure a lot of people were 823 00:34:22,628 --> 00:34:24,868 Speaker 1: The Rams were watching as they somehow watched seat to 824 00:34:24,868 --> 00:34:26,948 Speaker 1: win six to three, because that affects them. They need 825 00:34:26,988 --> 00:34:28,828 Speaker 1: to win, They need to get in. I still think 826 00:34:28,828 --> 00:34:30,268 Speaker 1: they're going to win the West. I don't think they're 827 00:34:30,268 --> 00:34:31,668 Speaker 1: going to blow this thing. Let me just take a minute. 828 00:34:31,708 --> 00:34:33,548 Speaker 1: We've taken a lot of time on the show this 829 00:34:33,628 --> 00:34:36,388 Speaker 1: year to talk about quote unquote my Arizona Cardinals, who 830 00:34:36,428 --> 00:34:38,508 Speaker 1: I picked to make the playoffs. There's the semi truck 831 00:34:38,508 --> 00:34:40,148 Speaker 1: I'm going to keep going in honor of the Cardinals 832 00:34:40,308 --> 00:34:42,868 Speaker 1: they were. They're not going to make the playoffs. They're 833 00:34:42,908 --> 00:34:45,228 Speaker 1: seven and eight. That last year they were a four 834 00:34:45,228 --> 00:34:47,148 Speaker 1: and thirteen team. Still a very good year for the 835 00:34:47,148 --> 00:34:50,188 Speaker 1: Cardinals progress. Kyler Kind of got cool on the internet 836 00:34:50,228 --> 00:34:52,508 Speaker 1: again this year. I like what the Cardinals did this year. 837 00:34:52,548 --> 00:34:55,028 Speaker 1: I think they'll finish probably with eight wins. Last year four. 838 00:34:55,068 --> 00:34:56,188 Speaker 2: They doubled it. It's pretty cool. 839 00:34:56,948 --> 00:34:59,668 Speaker 4: Yeah, we have a catching with the Cardinals today. I'm 840 00:34:59,668 --> 00:35:02,308 Speaker 4: excited to talk to Kyler. I haven't spoken to him 841 00:35:02,348 --> 00:35:04,228 Speaker 4: since he won the Heisman a couple of years back, 842 00:35:04,268 --> 00:35:06,188 Speaker 4: so it'll be really cool to just see how he's 843 00:35:06,228 --> 00:35:08,628 Speaker 4: doing and what he's like these days. Let's move on 844 00:35:08,708 --> 00:35:13,948 Speaker 4: to Falcons commanders. You got two rookie quarterbacks going head ahead, 845 00:35:13,988 --> 00:35:16,668 Speaker 4: Peter Michael Pennox Junior and Jade Daniels. 846 00:35:16,668 --> 00:35:17,428 Speaker 3: Of course, what do you think? 847 00:35:17,828 --> 00:35:20,148 Speaker 6: Well, I showed the footage yesterday in nineteen ninety one 848 00:35:20,228 --> 00:35:23,668 Speaker 6: NFC Divisional Round, the Jerry Glanville, Dion Sanders, Chris Miller 849 00:35:23,708 --> 00:35:26,468 Speaker 6: Falcons coming to Washington as the hottest team in football 850 00:35:26,948 --> 00:35:29,588 Speaker 6: and the Washington Redskins, who were led by Mark Rippin, 851 00:35:29,628 --> 00:35:31,108 Speaker 6: go and they beat them and go on. 852 00:35:31,068 --> 00:35:32,028 Speaker 5: To win a Super Bowl. 853 00:35:32,108 --> 00:35:35,748 Speaker 6: This is the most significant Falcons Washington game since then. 854 00:35:35,868 --> 00:35:37,588 Speaker 6: I love that it's on Sunday night, and I love 855 00:35:37,628 --> 00:35:39,548 Speaker 6: that it's got two rookie quarterbacks. Feels like a new 856 00:35:39,548 --> 00:35:40,788 Speaker 6: beginning for both franchises. 857 00:35:41,708 --> 00:35:45,148 Speaker 7: Yeah, and it's the opportunity for Pennis at this point 858 00:35:45,228 --> 00:35:48,028 Speaker 7: in his second game to try to win the division. 859 00:35:48,188 --> 00:35:50,628 Speaker 7: It's going back and forth. This is a great opportunity. 860 00:35:50,668 --> 00:35:53,268 Speaker 7: But you get two of these elite quarterbacks. I can't 861 00:35:53,268 --> 00:35:55,028 Speaker 7: wait to see. It's going to be in the cold weather. 862 00:35:55,428 --> 00:35:58,228 Speaker 7: This has the makeup of a big time game. It 863 00:35:58,308 --> 00:36:00,548 Speaker 7: got flexus Sunday night. Great move on that one. 864 00:36:00,988 --> 00:36:04,068 Speaker 1: I remember that Falcons Washington game Peter back in the day. 865 00:36:04,388 --> 00:36:08,108 Speaker 1: The Falcons got an interception and they were just running around, scrambling, 866 00:36:08,188 --> 00:36:10,268 Speaker 1: trying to find Dion so they could lateral it to him. 867 00:36:10,308 --> 00:36:12,028 Speaker 1: It was a crazy time to be alive. That would 868 00:36:12,068 --> 00:36:15,268 Speaker 1: never happen. Now their rookie the Year race is over. 869 00:36:15,588 --> 00:36:17,468 Speaker 1: Jane Daniels won it when he beat Philly with five 870 00:36:17,508 --> 00:36:19,788 Speaker 1: touchdowns last week. Bonex has had a great season. This 871 00:36:19,908 --> 00:36:21,908 Speaker 1: will be icing on the cake. I love this Penix 872 00:36:21,988 --> 00:36:23,668 Speaker 1: versus Daniels. I hope we see this a lot that 873 00:36:23,748 --> 00:36:24,228 Speaker 1: coming forward. 874 00:36:24,428 --> 00:36:26,788 Speaker 4: Do you love it as much as the different variations 875 00:36:26,828 --> 00:36:28,988 Speaker 4: of the horn we've been using on Mad Minute, Kyle? 876 00:36:29,308 --> 00:36:31,348 Speaker 1: Yeah, somebody in the audio booth is just drunk with 877 00:36:31,428 --> 00:36:33,988 Speaker 1: power and God bless them, Merry Christmas. 878 00:36:34,788 --> 00:36:35,348 Speaker 5: What all you want? 879 00:36:35,908 --> 00:36:37,988 Speaker 6: I want to give Kyle some credit here. He's he's 880 00:36:38,028 --> 00:36:40,188 Speaker 6: designated last. He's the only one getting the horn, and 881 00:36:40,228 --> 00:36:42,348 Speaker 6: he's handling it with grace. I would be throwing things 882 00:36:42,348 --> 00:36:43,668 Speaker 6: at my laptop computer. 883 00:36:43,788 --> 00:36:46,188 Speaker 1: It's actually soothing after being in the house with my 884 00:36:46,268 --> 00:36:47,948 Speaker 1: kids off school. I feel like I'm in a spa 885 00:36:48,188 --> 00:36:51,188 Speaker 1: right now. Like in comparison, I have cucumbers on my eyes. Guys, 886 00:36:51,268 --> 00:36:53,228 Speaker 1: I'm listening to Enya. It's beautiful. 887 00:36:53,548 --> 00:36:55,828 Speaker 6: Well, all the producers on the show have been working 888 00:36:55,868 --> 00:36:57,828 Speaker 6: on I've been working on Netflix been the last week, 889 00:36:57,868 --> 00:36:59,508 Speaker 6: so it's nice that they're getting a little experience of 890 00:36:59,548 --> 00:37:00,348 Speaker 6: good Morning Football. 891 00:37:00,348 --> 00:37:00,868 Speaker 5: It's pretty good. 892 00:37:00,908 --> 00:37:02,868 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is nice.
