He picked some winners 14 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 2: for you. I'm joined by Brandon Anderson, of course, in 15 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 2: the early hours of Monday morning, to break down what 16 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 2: we saw from Super Bowl fifty nine. This one. I mean, 17 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 2: first of all, Brandon, before we get into this game, 18 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 2: which honestly wasn't even really a game, I mean, I 19 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 2: guess you start punk punt and you say to yourself, okay, well, 20 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 2: you know, I'm not sure I predicted this one. I 21 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 2: mean some people like points, some people didn't. But at 22 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: that point you said to yourself, okay, well anything can happen, 23 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: and then it kind of broke open. What's up man? 24 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, wow, it really on. It's like, okay, 25 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 3: I guess we're doing this slow thing. We kind of 26 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,040 Speaker 3: thought this. I thought it might trend toward Under certainly 27 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 3: did not. I'm happy to not bet the total here, 28 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 3: but I looked under early it looked like, okay, we're 29 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 3: gonna get some of these kind of long bleed the 30 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 3: clock sort of drives weird reughing. 31 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: Early we had like. 32 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 3: The long fourth down conversion for the Eagles that came 33 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 3: off for an offensive pass interference. I don't think it 34 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 3: was offensive pass interference, but you can't put your hand 35 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 3: on the other dude's face. Mak like that's a penalty 36 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 3: every time it's right in the refs line of site. 37 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 3: Then we had sort of a makeup call I thought 38 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 3: the other way. Then, thankfully the rests really not a story. 39 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 3: After that, I thought, I don't know that necessarily felt 40 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 3: like they were part of it, obviously. Ke turning point 41 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 3: is it's ten nothing, and I don't have proof of 42 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 3: this because don't have a bet for it. I wish 43 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 3: i'd tweeted or something. It felt like that. So the 44 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 3: Chiefs are getting the ball back, they hold them to 45 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 3: the field goals ten nothing. It felt like a big 46 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 3: play was coming, and I said to my girlfriend, Okay, 47 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 3: either the Chiefs are about to get a huge touchdown here, 48 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 3: or the Chiefs are about to get a huge touchdown 49 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 3: here for the other team. And I think it was 50 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 3: the Chiefs. I don't think it even had that first down 51 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 3: on their very first play, and then just like nothing 52 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 3: for nearly the entire rest of the half after that, 53 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 3: maybe the whole half. 54 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: I think they did have only one first down. 55 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 3: But Mahomes not good, not good at all in this game. 56 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 3: Overthrows trying to make something happen. Just didn't see Cooper 57 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 3: to Jean at all. To Jeane, picks it off, takes 58 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 3: it to the house. I like catch my breath because 59 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 3: I had the defensive touchdown and I'm like, don't step 60 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 3: out of like the threeels so close. But he takes 61 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 3: it in and seventeen nothing. It's like okay, well, you 62 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 3: know it's my home. It was like seventeen nothing. 63 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: You know better? 64 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 3: Is are premed to be like, all right, are we 65 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 3: gonna plus number on Mahomes now? 66 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: Like can we put the money line now? 67 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 3: Is like yeah, the money line was like thirteen and 68 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 3: fourteen to one by early in the second half, so 69 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: you're getting plenty of plus money on it. But yeah, 70 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 3: that play was not the end the end, but in hindsight, 71 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 3: it might have been seventeen nothing. The way that this 72 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: Eagles defense was playing, that was certainly the point. Whereas 73 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 3: before that I was like, Okay, it's fine. Mahomes always 74 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 3: trails at halftime of Super Bowl. We know, we know 75 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 3: how this goes. It's all fine. I think that Cooper 76 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 3: de Gene interception was the moment when everyone was like, oh, okay, 77 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: I feel like this is happening right now. 78 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: I think you're probably right. I mean, at that point 79 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 2: in the game, you had said to yourself, well, Casey 80 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 2: has almost no yards, and obviously they have no yards 81 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: almost going into halftime twenty three net yards versus twenty 82 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: four points for the Eagles, But at that point in 83 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 2: the game, it's but at that point in the game, 84 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 2: it's seventeen nothing, and you say, well, we haven't really 85 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 2: seen anything yet. But I think backing up a little bit, 86 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: because I mean, listen, people bet on so many different things. 87 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 2: I just want to talk about the h So the 88 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: national anthem, even at the start of the game, basically 89 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: completely even on the total. So we kind of started 90 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 2: off there with a little bit of controversy. I saw 91 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 2: a lot of overs, saw a lot of unders, a 92 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 2: lot of conversation. So that was really just, you know, 93 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 2: fun when something like that happens. 94 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 3: Jonabat John Batiste goes three times on the penultimate line 95 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 3: of the song. 96 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, what are you doing. 97 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 3: I was like, we're going away under and all of 98 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: a sudden three times and then just really belts out 99 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 3: the Brave and. 100 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, he got like right to the line. 101 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 2: And then some of those like you know, some of 102 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 2: the books have like you know, after first Brave, well, 103 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 2: you know, everyone kind of went crazy there. But the 104 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 2: thing I thought was kind of nuts is so Chiefs 105 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 2: punt first two possessions punt punt, and I looked it 106 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 2: up and I said, okay, you know, let's start looking 107 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,799 Speaker 2: up some like punt punk punt stats, like bad Super 108 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 2: Bowl starts. Even last year was San Francisco obviously casing 109 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,239 Speaker 2: down at the half, but they started punt punt as well. 110 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: So you know, first three possessions casey punts, and that's 111 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 2: only the third team to do that in the last 112 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 2: two decades, punting their first three possessions. At this point, 113 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 2: you're like, well, when are they ever going to get started? 114 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,239 Speaker 2: I think the other big moment the Dotson almost first touchdown. 115 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: I saw some eighty to one tickets out there, but 116 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: obviously a huge like that, that's that sucks. Let me 117 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 2: just say that that sucks. And then obviously hurt scores. 118 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 2: Who is you know, minus one twenty first touchdown? As 119 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: a joke, that was any time, but basically you know, 120 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: it's like five hundred or so. Not not the best 121 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 2: bet are the long starts, I would say, but you're right. 122 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 2: So the pick six seventeen to nothing the stats, that's 123 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 2: great there. I believe Dejane's first career interception on his 124 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 2: birthday birthday, on his birthday, and saw NFL tweeted out 125 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: first player in NFL history with a pick six on 126 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: his birthday. I mean literally the absolute perfect story for 127 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 2: everything involved. I think the other turning point in the game, 128 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 2: like at certain times you say, okay, Ken Casey get 129 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 2: back in. The personal foul that I believe was on 130 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: like second and twenty six, which was going to be 131 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: third and twenty six, which just terrible, and then the 132 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: Hopkins drop. I mean there was just so many opportunities 133 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 2: where Casey, I'm not going to say they would have 134 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: won the game, but get within two possessions, get within 135 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 2: three possessions, like try to put at least a little 136 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 2: bit of pressure on Philadelphia at any point. And that's 137 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 2: just not what we saw here. And then I mean, 138 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 2: you go to halftime, you know you have any thoughts 139 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 2: on Kendrick Lamar, I mean I barely saw it. I 140 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 2: was kind of traveling, but. 141 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 3: Well, I'm gonna give you some stats from halftime. Yeah, 142 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: second and twenty six. I did think that was a 143 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 3: pretty weak call. You know, you kind of hit Barkley 144 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 3: afterward by like, come on, we don't need that call. 145 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 3: That certainly didn't really do much determine the game, Like 146 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 3: there were no determining points in this game. This was 147 00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 3: just an Eagle's landslide. But yeah, that one was disappointing. Hopkins. 148 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 3: I don't know how much speed he still has left 149 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 3: in the legs, but if he catches that, there's a 150 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 3: lot of base over there. 151 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: So yeah, just. 152 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 3: Rough drop for him, rough showing for Chiefs not named 153 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 3: Xavier Worthy. Basically in this game on offense, just nothing. 154 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 3: Travis Kelcey, nothing until late in the game, Marquise Brown nothing, 155 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 3: Juju hits his over like right away, two catches right 156 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 3: off the bat. I know a bunch of people had 157 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 3: that one and then just kind of disappeared after that. 158 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 3: Chiefs run game, Chiefs running backs had for the entire 159 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 3: game seven carries for twenty four yards. I did not 160 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 3: get a chance to check, but I'm pretty sure zero 161 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 3: percent success, right I don't remember any successful Chiefs run Mahomes. 162 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 3: I thought Mahomes was going to run a lot of 163 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 3: this game. He didn't have a rush in the first half. 164 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 3: He couldn't possibly rush. He'd have time, Like I thought 165 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 3: that he'd get under some pressure and have to take off. 166 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 3: He was under so much pressure that he didn't time 167 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 3: to take off, and frankly did not respond well to 168 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 3: the pressure of this game. 169 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: So halftime stats is twenty four or nothing just before 170 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: the half. 171 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 3: We know, like on the Notre Dame run this year, 172 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 3: they talked about the middle eight right, the middle eight minutes, 173 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 3: the four before the half, the four after Brady kind 174 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 3: of called it out. Brady basically said, Okay, the Eagles 175 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 3: have the ball right now before the half. They want 176 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 3: to grind the clock down, not give the Chiefs the 177 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 3: ball back because at this point as seventeen to nothing 178 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 3: and if the Chiefs could just make a stop one stop. 179 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 3: And frankly, the Chiefs defense I thought was pretty much 180 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: good enough in this game. They just were in an 181 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 3: impossible situation all game. I think they could have been 182 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 3: better at times, they could have made a couple pass stops, 183 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 3: but for the most part, I think that defensive portmance 184 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 3: was mostly enough. Certainly the first half they did enough. 185 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 3: They only gave up ten to nothing the first half. 186 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 3: Casey gets the ball back deep in the end zone. 187 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 3: Mahomes forces another one great play by Zach Bond, dude 188 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 3: who's not even supposed to be a linebacker who got 189 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 3: like signed off the street for basically nothing, diving interception. 190 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: Eagles get the ball and get another touchdown for the 191 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 3: half twenty four to nothing. Now it's over over. So 192 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 3: at the half have a forty seven percent pressure rate, 193 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 3: so that basically means on half of the times they 194 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: drop back to pass, he's getting pressured. The Chiefs had 195 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 3: twenty three yards in the first half fews since nineteen 196 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 3: ninety in a Super Bowl. They had the one first 197 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 3: down on the very first play. They had twenty plays 198 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 3: for twenty three yards, so one point two yards of play, 199 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 3: twenty minutes to ten minutes time of possession, all of 200 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:29,599 Speaker 3: six on a third down. Just just nothing, absolutely nothing. Defensively, 201 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 3: ChIL Caapatia tweeted out best defensive first half performance both 202 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 3: by EPA and success rate by any defense the entire 203 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:43,599 Speaker 3: season in the first half against Mahomes. Just absolute masterclass 204 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 3: by Eagles defense. I in my preview, both on the 205 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 3: podcast and in my article, I gave very little attention 206 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 3: to that side of the ball and focus so much 207 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 3: on what will happen. The Chiefs surely will scort to Mahomes. 208 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 3: Let's see the other side though, what happens if Hurts 209 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 3: is behind, well didn't matter. It turned out they just 210 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 3: kept handing the ball off and frankly couldn't do anything 211 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 3: handle the ball off. Saguon Barkley did nothing in this game. 212 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 3: Twenty five carries for like fifty six yards or something. 213 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 3: They completely shut down Saguon Barkley, and it did not 214 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 3: matter because, like they have since the beginning of October, 215 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,959 Speaker 3: they played with the lead safely the entire way through, 216 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 3: and turns out it doesn't matter what happens if you 217 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 3: don't have to play with the negative script ever, because 218 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 3: they just never did it. 219 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, the three I guess bullet points I would say 220 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 2: is Barkley twenty five carries two point three per It 221 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: is just unbelievable job, at least on that side of 222 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,839 Speaker 2: the field. To say you did that and then lost 223 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 2: this game by you know, in the final score is 224 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 2: just so not indicative of the game we watched. I 225 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 2: mean the second bullet point, just Casey's third downs, I 226 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: mean the crew I think they started oh of seven 227 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: maybe oh of eight in that situation. So what I like, 228 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 2: rewatch this game. And I watched Superwol fifty seven a 229 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 2: few times last week. When I see Super Bowl fifty nine, 230 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 2: I'm gonna want to rewatch those third downs because to me, 231 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 2: it's you know, it was third and eight, third and tens, 232 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 2: and they just weren't completing many passes. And then you 233 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: look at the rushing game that was even crazier. Maybe 234 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 2: that was the easiest bet of the game under one 235 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 2: thirteen and a half, one fifteen and a half, one 236 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 2: seventeen and a half. Raybaumb was on it two but 237 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 2: forty nine yards and you talked about it too. Mahomes 238 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 2: with like twenty five rushing yards, so pretty crazy. 239 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, just nothing at all rushing for them. The Chiefs 240 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 3: offense really nothing, just couldn't get anything going all game. 241 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 3: Even the fact that they scored twenty two, it did 242 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,559 Speaker 3: not feel like that. It legitimately felt like they might 243 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 3: get shut out for a large portion of this game, 244 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 3: and even to the point where I was like, man, 245 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 3: I know, like Hurt's got the third touchdown, we're jumped 246 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 3: ahead after halftime, but I was still hoping for my 247 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 3: defensive MVP. I was like, if you shut out the Chiefs, 248 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 3: you got to give MVP to some defender, don't you, 249 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 3: like if you actually pull off the shutout. I don't know, 250 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 3: Josh what maybe two and a half sat Milton Williams 251 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 3: had two sacks and a fumble recovery late, Zach Bond 252 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 3: had the interception, great play by him. Cooper dejen has 253 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: the pick six. That's the problem. It really wasn't an MVP. 254 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: The MVP was the defense, Like it's the whole thing, 255 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 3: and really like that that's the master class by the defense. 256 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 3: Trying to see what other notes I had, so Mahomes had. 257 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 3: I think I don't know the final number, but I 258 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 3: think about fifty percent pressure right l game. Do you 259 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 3: know that the Philadelphia Eagles blitzed zero row times. They 260 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 3: did not blitz Mahomes once the entire game And he 261 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 3: was under pressure every second of every play for the 262 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 3: entire game. Like it was unreal and I think too. 263 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 3: Master class for the defense, masterclass for Howie Roseman. This 264 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 3: defense is completely different than the defense that showed up 265 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 3: in the Super Bowl two years ago. Like they turned 266 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 3: over a lot of the brand new rookie corners. They 267 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 3: bring in Zach Bond, They went and got some pass rushers, 268 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 3: They got the two Georgia defensive tackle the last couple 269 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 3: of years, Jalen Carter's a stud now, Like they completely 270 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 3: rebuilt this defense, went through two different defensive coordinators to 271 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 3: get to this third one now that's working. And like 272 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 3: the defense cost them the game the last time, defense 273 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 3: won them the game. This time, I'm gonna circle back. 274 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 3: You threw it to me a few minutes ago. I'm 275 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 3: gonna go back to halftime now. So we're in halftime. 276 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 3: Kendrick Lamyer's on the show. I don't know a lot 277 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 3: of Kendrick Lamayer. I love that even though he didn't 278 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 3: get to say it, we got an entire Super Bowl 279 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 3: audience dissing on a minor. So that was my takeaway 280 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 3: from Kendrick Lamar. What do you think a halftime show? 281 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 2: I mean, the only thing, And honestly, I don't even 282 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 2: remember because I got a tip and I had put 283 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 2: it out when I was having a conversation. I picked 284 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 2: the first song, and I believe you'll go on as 285 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 2: well as I had as well, so a few of 286 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 2: us had made some money on the first song by him, 287 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 2: which is honestly, I didn't even see the show. I 288 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 2: was traveling between one place and the other and just 289 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 2: saw that the first song was what he did and 290 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 2: I was excited about that. I listen, I'm I'm a 291 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:07,839 Speaker 2: little older. I think a few of us are a 292 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 2: little older. I think it was a pretty terrible choice 293 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: all around. I get it from different people's points of view. 294 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 2: I'm completely okay with it. I don't exactly have a 295 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 2: good replacement on who it should have been. I think 296 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 2: the halftime I'll just say this, I think the halftime 297 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 2: performance at the super Bowl kind of needs to be 298 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 2: rethought because it is a really, really long period of 299 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 2: time coaches have talked about that, but even from an 300 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 2: entertainment point of view, when we're going to get new 301 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 2: sandwiches and dips and refilling our drinks, like something else 302 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 2: can probably fill that period. But maybe I'm just a curmudgeon, 303 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: and you know, we can keep doing the music acts. 304 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 3: So I mean, the friends that I texted or talked 305 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 3: to that are bigger into the Kendrick Lamar type scene 306 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 3: really like the show. So I'm happy they enjoyed the show. 307 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 3: While we're on the halftime thoughts a couple of other things. 308 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 3: The score bug was a disaster in this game. You 309 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 3: just score like immediately, like what are we doing? Like 310 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 3: the giant letters that there's no box behind it for 311 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 3: the background, so they're just kind of these floating boxes. 312 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 3: Like I honestly thought it was so bad and they 313 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 3: were getting so much crap for it online. I wondered 314 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 3: if they'd like adjust at the half or something that 315 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 3: that was really bad. 316 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: I thought. 317 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 3: I thought Tom Brady was not great as a broadcast, 318 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 3: Like it didn't really feel like he added much. That 319 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 3: was very blo Patrick Mahomes, by the way, is now 320 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 3: zero and two in Super Bowls involving Tom Brady. I'm 321 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 3: not sure Brady was really the reason either one of those. 322 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 3: I don't know about the commercials. My girlfriend was very 323 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 3: excited to see Clydesdale's We've Got the Baby Clydesdale right 324 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 3: before the halftime. 325 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: Not a lot of standout commercials like I. 326 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 3: Missed the old days with like the Butud Bowl game 327 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 3: that you got to like slowly see how it played out, 328 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 3: like the Budweiser frog. I guess just Budweiser commercials was 329 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 3: apparently my thing as a kid growing up. I'm not 330 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 3: sure what that should say about me. 331 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: I don't know that there was even there. 332 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 3: There was one weird commercial with like a tongue thing 333 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 3: happening that I at least remember, but I don't know 334 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 3: what that was for. It doesn't seem like Super Bowl 335 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 3: commercials are really a thing anymore to me. Did you 336 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 3: have any commercials that stood out to you? 337 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: No? See, that's the thing. I think the entertainment aspect 338 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 2: is kind of lost. How about Red Panda. Let's do 339 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 2: Red Panda at the half or something like that. But 340 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 2: I mean, I just to me, there's a missing element 341 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: of creativity in some of those commercials and the entertainment 342 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 2: act at halftime was you know it is what it 343 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 2: is one of the most entertaining betting moments of the game, 344 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 2: at least for me. Was we got over two and 345 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 2: a half pass attempts in basically the final minute or 346 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 2: so of the game with Kenny Pickett. Kenny Pickett comes 347 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 2: into the game and then Kenny Pickett hands off a 348 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 2: bunch of times, and you obviously need him. He threw 349 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 2: the ball exactly once, which catch that bet I knew 350 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 2: Simon was on that A few of other people better. 351 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 3: And not only that, not only that, but he hands 352 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 3: the ball off three times. They go out to nowhere, 353 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 3: so it's fourth down, I believe. Into the two minute warning, 354 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 3: it's like, all right, well there's gonna punt it. I'm 355 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 3: getting excited over here. I got my Carson Wentz jersey on. 356 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 3: This is the Carson one Super Bowl. By the way, 357 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 3: I think I'm wearing the jersey of both the winning 358 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 3: team and the best quarterback on the other team today. 359 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 3: That's about how Mad Holmes played today. But my family 360 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 3: is all texting me, Wentz, is Went's gonna come in? 361 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 3: Kenny Pickett's playing, shouldn't Carson Wentz come in? So yeah, 362 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 3: they come back from the two minuo warning and decided 363 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 3: to just go for it and fourth down, because why not. 364 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 1: You're head by a billion anyway. 365 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 3: So that's where you get to piket throw and then 366 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 3: of course I'm excited, Okay, maybe Wentz is going to 367 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 3: come in, and instead Mahomes comes in and gets my 368 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 3: personal most exciting moment of the day, which is Mahomes like, oh, 369 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 3: you really think Wentz should be playing? 370 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 1: How about I throw like. 371 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 3: A seventy yard bomb to Xavier Worthy which hit Xavier 372 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 3: Worthy on the two touchdowns fifteen to one, got that 373 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 3: one for us and completed the Zavier Worthy escalator all 374 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 3: the way to the top six seven and eight receptions 375 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 3: got us over two hundred yards. That was another bet 376 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 3: they would had not today, but for the duration of 377 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 3: the playoffs, I think he ended up leading in playoff yards. 378 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 3: Not the guy that I would for that one before 379 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 3: the postseason started. So yeah, really the second half less 380 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 3: analysis and more like my touchdown bad. 381 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: Hit long played to Devonte Smith. But you know, like 382 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: that's all what it was. 383 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,719 Speaker 3: Was just like for the d Jens among us, I 384 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 3: literally had thirty nine bets in my article, so I'm 385 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 3: just like constantly being like, okay, all right, well maybe 386 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 3: it was like a couple more worthy catches. And I 387 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 3: will say this too. We talked a lot about longest rushes. 388 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 3: I crushed the Saquon longest rush under he never got 389 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 3: even close to I don't think he even hit ten 390 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 3: in this game. Worst sweat of my life. I did 391 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 3: not enjoy having those I had under Saquon, longest rush 392 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 3: over On Hurts, over On Mahomes, and then longest rush 393 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 3: for both quarterbacks. That's where great. Mahomes didn't go over. 394 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 3: He missed by three yards. Everything else hit Hurts got 395 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 3: the longest rush ten to one. Squon went on under 396 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 3: Hurts went over. 397 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: It was terrible. I hated it. Every single play. I'm like, oh. 398 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 3: Two more yards, Oh no, the hand off to Saquon, 399 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 3: and You're like, every play was terrible. It was like 400 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 3: the longest three hours. Nobody was more relieved than me 401 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 3: to see picket come in because I was like, if 402 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 3: they put picket in and still are handing out to Saquon, now, 403 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 3: like I cannot take any more at Saquon handoffs. So 404 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 3: hopefully if you tail on that. Hopefully you did tail 405 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 3: because we were profitable, but hopefully you enjoyed the sweat 406 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 3: a little more than I did. I was not enjoying 407 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 3: myself on that one. 408 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 2: The two underrated storylines out so on that Mahomes throat 409 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 2: are worthy. Uh, he overtakes hurts and passing yards on 410 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: the throw. He also his passing yard total was between 411 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 2: two fifty three and two fifty five. He ends on 412 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 2: two fifty seven on the worthy throw, so goes over that. 413 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 2: And also depending on the line you got, Casey ends 414 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 2: up twenty two sixteen, winning the second half as well 415 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 2: on that touchdown, So a lot ends up flipping there 416 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 2: on that play. And to me, I mean, I'll only 417 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 2: go back to one thing here and then I think 418 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 2: we can kind of, you know, wrap up with some 419 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: of our stats and keep going here. But to me, 420 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 2: the pressure without the blitz and some of the numbers 421 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: that are coming out from next gen stats is absolutely ridiculous. 422 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 2: So the Eagles not blitzing once across forty two dropbacks, 423 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 2: just the fourth defense to not blitz in a game 424 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 2: in the next Gen era. Okay, So I mean then 425 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 2: you go further and say, okay, well they still got 426 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 2: sixteen pressures, sacked him six times without any Blitz basically 427 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 2: playing all but two dropbacks, specifically cover four, third highest 428 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: rate by a defense since twenty eighteen. I mean, it 429 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 2: was a really, really good job by Fangio. And there 430 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 2: was a bunch of stats in Stucky's article about the 431 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 2: fact that in the red zone, guys forget the red zone. 432 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 2: They didn't get that, you know, midfields all half, like 433 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 2: the red zone didn't even become a part of this game. 434 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 2: That's how good the planning was. And the last one 435 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,360 Speaker 2: is Fanjo's defense health. Mahomes second worst performance by EPA 436 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 2: in a game in his career, and that's that's really 437 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 2: where it was a great stat also ESPN Stats and Info. 438 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 2: So I think only five quarterbacks in Super Bowl history 439 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 2: have been sacked six times or more. Mahomes is only 440 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 2: the second to get them six sacks versus four or 441 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 2: fewer pass rushers. I mean, this was an absolute clinic 442 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 2: and it honestly showed in every time you were watching 443 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 2: any of the possessions. I mean, he was on his 444 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 2: butt constantly, and everyone on all these pods for us 445 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 2: talked about the fact that these two players between Kellendo 446 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 2: and Toony just were at a position and it was a. 447 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 3: Mess Yeah, six sacks is the most ever for Patrick Mahomes. 448 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: Look, I gotta be fair here. 449 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 3: If we watched this game Super Bowl or otherwise, and 450 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 3: this was Lamar Jackson or this was Josh Allen or 451 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 3: whoever else, we would be murdering them for how bad 452 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 3: that they played. Patrick Mahomes was awful in this game. 453 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 3: I know he ends up with three touchdowns and twitter 454 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 3: fifty seven yards, like, I know that the positive stats 455 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 3: kind of come there now. Mahomes was terrible. The two 456 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 3: interceptions were both awful throws. You can't put the ball 457 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 3: up for grabs that deep in your own territory. The 458 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 3: six sacks, Look, we say it all the time, sacks 459 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 3: are a quarterback stat. The offensive line was not good 460 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 3: in this game, no doubt about it. But I don't 461 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 3: feel like Mahomes handled the pressure at all in this game, 462 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 3: or even the very first possession of the game. They're 463 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 3: pinned back deep after they got the stop on the Eagles, 464 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 3: and Mahomes on third and long, like scrambles left wheels 465 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 3: around under pressure and like runs all the way back 466 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 3: almost into the end zone and like throws it trying 467 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 3: to kind of throw it away and almost got picked 468 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 3: right there already on like the thirty yard line. It 469 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 3: turned out that should have been a sign like that. 470 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 3: That is effectively what he was doing, trying to avoid 471 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 3: pressure in this game. It just didn't work. It was 472 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 3: not going well. He did not handle the pressure. He 473 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 3: had the stripsack also, so three turnovers. That's another one 474 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 3: of those that I'd call out Lamar for, so collingel 475 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 3: Patrick for. 476 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. 477 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: I had the EPA stat as. 478 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 3: Well, second worst of his career, and the only reason 479 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,479 Speaker 3: that was second worst it was point oh one worst 480 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 3: last year against Denver. The only reason is because of 481 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 3: that huge play to Za if you're worthy at the end. 482 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 3: Otherwise it's way worse than that because that's a ginormous 483 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 3: EPA play too. Interestingly, second orders DPA per play. Third 484 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 3: worst was against the Eagles last year, week eleven, when 485 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 3: he played them. 486 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 1: Perhaps we should have given that a little more credit. 487 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 3: Fourth worst was the other Super Bowl loss against the Buccaneers, 488 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,959 Speaker 3: very similar sort of feel to today, where he just 489 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 3: didn't get past any of the pressure. Just pressure, pressure, pressure, 490 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 3: all game. Did not get much help obviously, Zavi, you're 491 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 3: worthy made plays, but Chiefs finished with only forty nine plays. 492 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 3: They just never had the ball here two hundred and 493 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 3: seventy five yards and I think over one hundred of 494 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 3: that was those just two long worthy bombs. So outside 495 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 3: of those two, just like effectively Hail Mary's, the Chiefs 496 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 3: are one hundred and what one hundred and fifty to 497 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 3: one hundred and seventy five yards just just terrible. And again, 498 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 3: to be fair, not just Chiefs terrible. Eagles awesome. Eagles 499 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 3: defense awesome should be the real takeaway, like it's it 500 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 3: goes both ways, but yeah, Mahomes just absolutely not good 501 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 3: enough in this Jalen Hurts MVP. Jalen Hurts to lose 502 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 3: the game for the Eagles was my cap. So even 503 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 3: though I hit a bunch of my nice long shots, 504 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 3: my main pick, I didn't get it on this one. 505 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:36,919 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts wins MVP. 506 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 3: I did get the Jalen Hurts MVP because I kind 507 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 3: of bet against myself on that one. I don't know 508 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 3: that Jalen Hurts was incredible. He just didn't have to be. 509 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 3: He did when he needed to as a passer. Got 510 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 3: the long one to DeVante that really really ended it. 511 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 3: They got the fourth down stop and then the kill 512 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 3: shot the very next play thirty four nothing. I was like, okay, 513 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 3: even Mahomes can't come back from thirty four to nothing, 514 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,439 Speaker 3: which is we're all thinking it, which is a a 515 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 3: show of. 516 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: How much respect we have for Mahomes. 517 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 3: When it's like mid third quarter, thirty four not through, 518 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, it's gotta be over now, right. I mean, 519 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 3: it's thirty four five touchdowns like that, that's insane. But 520 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 3: Smith at that one first touchdown ever by a non 521 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 3: quarterback Alabama player in the Super Bowl, which is pretty crazy. 522 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 3: And aj Brown made some big plays. Nobody really had 523 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 3: overwhelming stats on the Eagles because they didn't have to. 524 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 3: I had the stat Here's the starting position for the Eagles. 525 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 3: They had won two, three, four times they started with 526 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 3: the ball in Chiefs territory, not counting the pick six obviously, 527 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 3: which you'd like start as the zero. Even without counting that, 528 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 3: the Eagles started with the ball on average at the 529 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 3: forty four yard line. That to me, again, the Chiefs 530 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 3: defense gave up a couple of long ones, they gave 531 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,959 Speaker 3: up some passes down the field. I thought the Chiefs 532 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 3: defense just ran out of gas, basically, like it would 533 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 3: have been nice to make a couple more plays or 534 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,439 Speaker 3: go on the attack. Maybe Spags did not get to 535 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 3: go on the attack much. They held Eagles, I believe, 536 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 3: three of twelve on third down, all of one on 537 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 3: fourth down. They're just on the field all game because 538 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 3: like we've kind of seen that in recent years. I 539 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 3: think back to like the Jets a year ago where 540 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 3: they had not not the one that just finished, Not 541 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,399 Speaker 3: those Jets. Let's never think of those Jets again. But 542 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 3: a year ago, this really really good defense, but the 543 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 3: offense was so abysmal that the defense just wasn't quite 544 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 3: good enough because they're just on the field all game. 545 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,719 Speaker 3: And I feel like that's kind of a little bit 546 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 3: what happened here where the Chiefs shut down their run 547 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 3: almost completely other than a couple of hurt sneaks and 548 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 3: scrambles and otherwise gave up a couple of passes, but 549 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 3: just on the field and playing on their heels all 550 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 3: game long. And you know, we thought maybe we'd have 551 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 3: the three peat story here. We've still now never had 552 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 3: one in NFL history. We've not had one in any 553 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 3: major Americans sport men's or women since two thousand. Since 554 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 3: early two thousand, Lakers Michael joined the Bulls did it twice. 555 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 3: It is tough to three peat. We have had it 556 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,479 Speaker 3: for a while, So yeah, I kind of ran through 557 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 3: a bunch of bullets all over the place on that one. 558 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 3: What else do you have on this game? 559 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 2: I think it's just probably a good time to give 560 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 2: Hurt some flowers. I mean the stat I saw, which 561 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 2: is great as he has ten passing touchdowns ten rushing 562 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 2: touchdowns in the postseason, so fifty. I looked it up 563 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 2: because I was curious. Fifty three players have ten plus 564 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 2: passing touchdowns in their playoff career. Nine players have ten 565 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 2: plus rushing touchdowns. He is the only one with both. 566 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 2: So I mean, his versatility I think is very key, 567 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 2: and it was actually part of the reason you and 568 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 2: I both agreed we liked him for MVP is we 569 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 2: thought the odds were a little bit long for a 570 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 2: guy who runs very predictable plays which he got a 571 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: rushing touchdown, and it was very much a part of 572 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 2: why he won the MVP. I think the pass to 573 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 2: Devanta helped, Like I think there was things that probably 574 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 2: went with it, but the fact that we knew he 575 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 2: was probably going to get zero point seventy five touchdowns, 576 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 2: you know, or are something of that nature in this 577 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 2: game when you look at like projections and things like that. 578 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 2: So I think that's worth talking about. The other stat 579 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 2: that's just playing out fun is longest odds to win 580 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 2: Super Bowl MVP for a quarterback last twenty years plus 581 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 2: three seventy five Jalen Hurts super Bowl fifty nine plus 582 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 2: four to sixty Nick Foles super Bowl fifty two. So 583 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 2: both situations coming with Philly in that spot, and then 584 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 2: the better one is Foles and Hurts. Both those Eagles 585 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 2: teams is the reason we haven't seen a three peat 586 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 2: since the Packers in the sixties. So Foles basically cuts 587 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 2: off the Patriots three p in the middle, and we 588 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 2: just saw what Hurts did. So both performance is very different. 589 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 2: I mean, Eagles scoring forty points in this game, and 590 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 2: in that Foles game they scored a bunch of points 591 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 2: as well. I think the other thing, which is something 592 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 2: we had talked about earlier this week and on other podcasts, 593 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 2: is the experience of Hurts being in the game, Siriani 594 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 2: being in the game going through the two weeks. I mean, 595 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 2: at no point did I feel like Philly felt uncomfortable 596 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 2: in this one. Barkley doesn't have a good day at all. 597 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 2: Twenty five carries though, so they stick to the run. 598 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 2: And even I thought this was one of the best 599 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 2: parts of the game is the past of the Devanta 600 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 2: because it basically says to you that, yeah, we're up 601 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 2: a million, but we're still going to attack, yeh. And 602 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 2: to me, that was the perfect representation of kind of 603 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 2: the Eagles. The other one, I'll say, I'll give you 604 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: two more stats, which just kind of continued in this one. 605 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 2: I tweeted this out. This one makes no sense, guys, 606 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 2: but it's just it's insane that it's actually true. Which 607 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 2: is the team with the better win percentage entering the 608 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 2: Super Bowl is now one in seventeen against the spread 609 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 2: since two thousand and three. I'll say that again, one 610 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 2: in seventeen against the spread and the one winner Patriots 611 00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 2: over Falcons, So it really should be eight team. It's 612 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 2: just wild, I mean, inflation of some level, obviously a 613 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 2: butt ton of noise, but a crazy stat. Nonetheless, Yeah, 614 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 2: I mean I. 615 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: Saw the stat. 616 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 3: I saw that before the game, and it was it 617 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 3: was one stat that I was like, really, just like 618 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 3: when a stat like it still is a small sample 619 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 3: on like under two decades and just one game a year, obviously, 620 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 3: but like when when a stat has a zero or 621 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 3: a one on one of the numbers, it's always going 622 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 3: to catch your attention at least to make you think 623 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 3: twice about it. 624 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: It's like, okay, well what is this? 625 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 3: It like that The natural logical conclusion I could draw 626 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 3: of okay is the stat anything is is one conference 627 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 3: tougher and getting you more ready for the big game, 628 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 3: and one conference easier and not getting you as ready 629 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 3: as much and getting us over inflated. 630 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: On how good we thought a team was. 631 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 3: And look, I wrote an article in like week ten 632 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 3: or twelve or something burying the cheap being like, the 633 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 3: Chiefs are done. No Chiefs future, that's not gonna happen. 634 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 3: They're gonna get blown out one of these games. I 635 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 3: bet the Chiefs still win the super Bowl in this 636 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 3: game like we got. 637 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: I totally went away from that. 638 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 3: This is the game that, like back in week ten 639 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 3: or so, that felt like was coming for the Chiefs, 640 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 3: And now all of a sudden, they kind of hit 641 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 3: the gas light and they got things moving. 642 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: But back to the stat a little bit. 643 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 3: They got things moving against Pittsburgh and then against Houston, 644 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 3: and then against Houston again, and maybe it turns out 645 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 3: those teams weren't all that great either, They just also 646 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 3: were in the AFC also playing a lot of the 647 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 3: bad teams, and maybe that's kind of what that stat 648 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 3: is representing. Certainly it's one that I filed away in 649 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 3: my head, although I started floating around there a lot. 650 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 3: So now it's like it's one of those that now 651 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:46,239 Speaker 3: we all know, we're gonna remember it for next year 652 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 3: and then is gonna finally flip the other way for once. 653 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 3: But definitely an interesting one. 654 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 2: And the other one that's great is I mean, at 655 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 2: this point, the underdogs covered five straight Super Bowls. Wow, 656 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 2: And I looked it up before we went on here. 657 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 2: That's the longest stretch in history. Obviously that include the 658 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 2: Bengals who lost the Super Bowl but ended up covering, 659 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 2: which is not something we had seen in almost forever 660 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 2: at that point, but five straight covers for underdogs. Underdogs 661 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 2: have been really good in Super Bowls too. I think 662 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 2: it's like twelve and five or something like that last 663 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 2: seventeen ats, so really really a good stretch. When you 664 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 2: get into this game, it almost feels like the two 665 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 2: weeks kind of evens it out a little bit. But listen, 666 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 2: we had seen two Super Bowls of the better team, 667 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 2: I think most people would say on paper losing to 668 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 2: the better quarterback, and today it just felt like we 669 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 2: saw that Tampa chief Super Bowl over again. I mean, 670 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 2: the pressure in his face changed the game completely. And 671 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 2: I don't really have too much else here. I mean, 672 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 2: I think we really kind of sum up the game 673 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 2: by just saying that it never really felt like Casey 674 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 2: had a chance when they fell behind. They just didn't 675 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 2: put up the points. And it almost at the end 676 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 2: of the game it almost felt like at times maybe 677 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 2: they had started to find for ways to attack it, 678 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 2: but the pressure just felt like too much. And it's crazy. 679 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 2: I mean, no Boods is just insane. 680 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean really forty to twenty two, Like for 681 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,479 Speaker 3: our bets sake, I'm happy that the Chiefs got some 682 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 3: of those late scores, got to rexave your worthy of 683 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 3: bets and everything. From a historical standpoint, kind of just 684 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 3: would have rather had the shutout. It felt like they 685 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 3: shut them out still like that. To me, this historically, 686 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 3: when we look back on this ten years, twenty years 687 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 3: from now, I think this was the defensive masterclass against 688 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes, and I think it's going to be the standard, 689 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 3: and I think it will end up being in an 690 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 3: all time great play career for a guy that still 691 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 3: may go down as the grace of all time, that's 692 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 3: gotten more things to do to get there, but certainly 693 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 3: off to the right start. This is the game that 694 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 3: people are going to point to, like when Vic Fangio 695 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 3: goes into the Hall of Fame, this is gonna be 696 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 3: the game that goes in there like this. This is 697 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 3: one for this is what we remember. It cannot be 698 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 3: the one to remember for Mahomes choking or the three 699 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 3: peet following. 700 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: It can't always all be about the Chiefs. This was Eagles. 701 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: This was Eagles defense. 702 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 3: I was laughing about your stat that we're now in 703 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 3: five straight underdogs covering. I believe, if I'm right, I'm 704 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 3: gonna follow my own sword here for you. I believe 705 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 3: this is my fourth Super Bowl I've covered with the 706 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 3: Action Network. 707 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 1: Now, look, I made a lot of money for us today. 708 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: We hit some long shots. 709 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 3: We got the Eagles defensive touchdown, we got the hurt's 710 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 3: longest rush, we got the worthy two touchdowns all ten 711 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,280 Speaker 3: to one or longer my main bet was the Chiefs. 712 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 3: I am now zero and to four in the Super 713 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 3: Bowl on my main. 714 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: Side pick at the Super Bowl. 715 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 3: And I'm laughing because apparently that means that I'm captain favorites, 716 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 3: and every year I must be taking the favorite in 717 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl, and every year the underdog keeps covering. 718 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:56,280 Speaker 3: Although I'm pretty sure two times in previous Mahomes Super Bowls, 719 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 3: I talk Mo Siff and to the better team, the 720 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 3: better team will win in the trenches, the better team 721 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 3: will went out they had just pick Mahomes, and I 722 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 3: finally brought myself to the other side. And look at 723 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,959 Speaker 3: it does. For the football nerds like us out here. 724 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 3: It kind of feels right, like it kind of feels 725 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 3: nice to be like, Okay, you don't just have to 726 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 3: have Mahomes and magically win everything. You can actually go 727 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 3: get Zach Bond and Milton Williams, like these are dudes 728 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 3: that were just available to everybody last you can. You 729 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 3: can go build this team and actually win a Super Bowl. 730 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 3: You don't have to just have the God of football 731 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 3: do it for you. There are other ways to accomplish it, 732 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 3: and you know it gives you some hope that way 733 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 3: and I feel like the Eagles, not the Chiefs, have 734 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 3: to be the storyline like daw because they won the 735 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,840 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. But Chiefs is everything at all times. Mahomes 736 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 3: is everything at all times. And you know, in a way, 737 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 3: even though I'm not exactly the fondest of Philadelphia fans, 738 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 3: I will admit it. 739 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 1: It's so nice. 740 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 3: It's rare, especially in today's af You used to be 741 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 3: like the ninth these Every super Bowl is like this. 742 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,959 Speaker 3: Every super Bowl was like a twenty thirty point game. 743 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 3: I hated super Bowls growing up. 744 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: It was no fun. Nowadays everything is down to the 745 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: wire and you we get to enjoy it. 746 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 3: To get to just victory lap the entire second half 747 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 3: of the Super Bowl, Siriani just like jumping up and 748 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 3: down on the sideline. That was one of the earliest 749 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 3: gateoraye baths I've seen. Like we get the yellow gateoraye 750 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 3: tel with like almost three minutes left in the game. 751 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 3: We get the whole image of normally we had it. 752 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 3: Actually network a couple of years ago, we couldn't even 753 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:31,600 Speaker 3: see what color the gate rade was. We had to 754 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 3: publish a story and we like broke news to the 755 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 3: Internet of what color it was. Because it like snuck 756 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 3: onto the screen after it went to commercial, after the 757 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 3: game was done. This is just like during the play happening. 758 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,879 Speaker 3: That's how much the Eagles dominated this game. And yeah, 759 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 3: they they don't just deserve flowers, they deserve a bouquet 760 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 3: a rose garden. They got the whole thing that they 761 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 3: did the thing. 762 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,919 Speaker 2: I think the two notes in post game that we'll 763 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 2: talk about throughout the offseason is the fact that Hertz 764 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,319 Speaker 2: gets the ring for Allen and Lamar, which I think 765 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 2: will be a continued conference and Burrow, you know, keep 766 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 2: going and going and going. I mean, Hurts is added 767 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,800 Speaker 2: to a very small list of quarterbacks who is currently 768 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,879 Speaker 2: active and with a ring, because that was pretty much 769 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 2: Mahomes and the old guys. But now Hurts gets out 770 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 2: of the list. So I think that's number one. That'll 771 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 2: just be a topic. Number two, I think it's the 772 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 2: wins and losses for Mahomes and Super Bowl. So he 773 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 2: beats the forty nine ers by eleven, then he wins 774 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 2: by three and three, and then his losses are by 775 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:36,920 Speaker 2: a combined forty points. So I do think that will 776 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 2: be a unfortunate topic and I don't want to call 777 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 2: it like a stain on his legacy, because if the 778 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 2: guy goes out there and he's like eight and two, 779 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 2: I think we're going to probably forget about those two. 780 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 2: But I think losing by a lot in those two 781 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,720 Speaker 2: games is something to consider. 782 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:54,880 Speaker 1: Now. 783 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 2: The offensive line was the issue in both games, and 784 00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 2: everyone's going to talk about the fact that Brady went 785 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,720 Speaker 2: to ten Super bowl and led in the fourth quarter 786 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 2: of all ten Super Bowls, so there's obviously a difference there. 787 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 2: But to me, those are the two topics. Hertz gets 788 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 2: the ring, the tush push, the way the Eagles kind 789 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 2: of attacked the season and played like worked, and I 790 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 2: think there's a topic there. I also think that Derrick Henry, 791 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 2: Joe Mixon, Saquon Barkley kind of working in areas is 792 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 2: going to be a topic, like what type of additions 793 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 2: people can make to put teams over the top because 794 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 2: it worked here. Barkley doesn't have the best game, but 795 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 2: they're not in the game without him. 796 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree they this, Yeah, even from that perspective, 797 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 3: like it had become the Saquon Barkley story this whole postseason, 798 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 3: and you know, Barkley finished third in MVP voting on 799 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 3: Thursday Night, when the awards came through, it had become about, Okay, 800 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 3: this is the same team as two years ago. This 801 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 3: had Saquon Barkley. That's the only exciting part of the 802 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 3: Super Bowl Saquon Barkley. Otherwise it's all the same No, 803 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 3: not the same defense. 804 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:01,879 Speaker 1: That was the key here. 805 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 3: We brought in entirely names on the defense. How we 806 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,399 Speaker 3: rebuilt the whole thing, and yeah, this was a team win. 807 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 3: This is the thing you want to see when you 808 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 3: watch sports. I know, it's really fun sometimes, Like, look, 809 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 3: we all liked Mahomes starting out. I personally still like him, 810 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,760 Speaker 3: but a lot of folks ruin against the Chiefs today. 811 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 3: A lot of those same folks were really ruined for 812 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 3: the Chiefs when this thing started out. It's fun to 813 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 3: like the new guy, the guy chucking it all over 814 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 3: the field, making the amazing plays. Just kind of gets 815 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:32,719 Speaker 3: old after a while. We like something new, but I 816 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 3: think in sports too, we like the one player doing everything. 817 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 3: But it's really refreshing and nice to see the team too. 818 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 3: Like we know everybody loves to to do youth sports 819 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 3: and go and like support their local high school team. 820 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 3: You preach teams, sport, you preach everyone does their thing. 821 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 3: You don't preach Saquon Barkley, go run for three hundred 822 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,400 Speaker 3: yards and do everything like that's that's fun. We love 823 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 3: to bet on it. We love to bet the long shots. 824 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 3: But like, to me, this game, this is football, this 825 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 3: is sports. This is what you want team sports to represent. 826 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:10,280 Speaker 3: Is you want enough of times you want the better 827 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 3: team to beat the better individual. And today the better 828 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 3: individual wasn't good enough. Anyways, he was pretty terrible. 829 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 2: Wan of the better individuals two in one in games 830 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,799 Speaker 2: against you know, really really really good teams. So kind 831 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 2: of is what it is? All right? Well, to me, 832 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 2: that's super Bowl fifty nine. Are you ready? So we're 833 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 2: gonna give you a Super Bowl sixty, super Bowl sixty 834 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, hot Read. We're gonna have a quick 835 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 2: discussion now because we have odds out to win the 836 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 2: Super Bowl for next year. There is also MVP odds out, 837 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 2: which I think Brandon has a small opinion on, and 838 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 2: I mean I've looked at the market. I'll give you 839 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,919 Speaker 2: a quick thought there, but Brandon hot Read, super Bowl 840 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 2: sixty kind of get us started, and then I'll give 841 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 2: you my opinions. Hot Wrap both day on ice rights 842 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 2: ice creams that hoy real so tight. 843 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, we got to get one pick before we get 844 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 1: out of here. Right. 845 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 3: So, last year, at this time, wrapping up the season, 846 00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 3: made a hot read. No, I'll be fair, I made 847 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 3: two hot reads. I made two hot reads. One of 848 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 3: them was the Jets never to be mentioned again, did 849 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 3: not go well. The other one was the Philadelphia Eagles 850 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 3: twenty two to one from last year at this time 851 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 3: obviously cash for us today. I think next year's Eagles 852 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 3: are the San Francisco forty nine ers. That is my 853 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 3: first futures bet, seventeen to one. You can play that 854 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 3: at Bette Rivers. It was twenty to one a few 855 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 3: days ago in a first art going up. I've got 856 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:39,720 Speaker 3: another full article. Just tweeted that out as we're recording 857 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 3: this live after the Super Bowl, so you can check 858 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 3: out the whole case there. 859 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,479 Speaker 1: But it's kind of two parts. Number one. 860 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 3: This sounds crazy, but I think Kyle Shanahan is the 861 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 3: NFC version of Patrick Mahomes. Kyle Shanahan has been in 862 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,719 Speaker 3: the NFC Championship four out of eight seasons with the 863 00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 3: forty nine Ers and led Matt Ryan and the Falcons offense. 864 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: The NFC Championship the season before. 865 00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:06,280 Speaker 3: So five out of the last nine years Shanahan's offense 866 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:07,919 Speaker 3: has been an NFC Championship. 867 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:09,839 Speaker 1: This year six to eleven. No good. 868 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,319 Speaker 3: For the last five years before that, they won at 869 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 3: least twelve games a season. They went sixty two and 870 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:18,399 Speaker 3: thirty three counting the playoffs. For the five years they 871 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 3: won multiple playoff games and made the NFC Championship, Two 872 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 3: of the four made the Super Bowl. Shanahan's offense just 873 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,760 Speaker 3: hasn't been stopped yet. And like, oh, well, they stopped 874 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 3: them this year. No, they really didn't. 875 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 1: They just were hurt all year. 876 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 3: McCaffrey obviously, that's been the big guy for them, and 877 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 3: he just didn't play this year. More or less, he 878 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 3: played four games. He had the long iron stretch to 879 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 3: start the year. Brandon Ayuk holds out, doesn't get the 880 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 3: contract early, comes back and then misses ten games. Twenty 881 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 3: ACL Trent Williams, the stud left tackle, in my opinion, 882 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 3: is still the best line in the game, misses seven games. 883 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,280 Speaker 3: Brock Purdy, George Kittle, Deebo Samuel they all missed multiple games. 884 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: That's it. That's the offense. 885 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,320 Speaker 3: That's your six dudes. That you're built your entire team around. 886 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:06,280 Speaker 3: That's thirty six missed games, so average of six games 887 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 3: per those six best players. You're not gonna have a 888 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 3: great season when that happens. But even then, they were 889 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,919 Speaker 3: fourth in yardage there is seventh in yards per carry. 890 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 3: They were fourth in yards per pass attempt. Even with 891 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 3: all those injuries. That's Shanahan's offense. That's how good they are. 892 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:25,879 Speaker 3: They finished ninth in DVA with all those injuries. Nineth 893 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 3: isn't seemed great. Ninth was ahead of the Eagles, Ninth 894 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 3: was ahead of the Rams and the Vikings. Ninth was 895 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 3: basically tied with the Chiefs. They were still that good 896 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,479 Speaker 3: playing with like a bunch of backups. Jordan Mason comes 897 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,839 Speaker 3: in five point two yards of carry. Isaac Garnde ever 898 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 3: heard of him before this year? I sure had it. 899 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 3: Five yards of pop. Juwan Jennings almost a thousand yards, 900 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,360 Speaker 3: is putting up like three touchdown games out of the blue. 901 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:52,280 Speaker 3: And look, brock Purty, mister relevant. He becomes the MVP 902 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 3: of their team. Now, that's why they win six to eleven. 903 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:55,080 Speaker 1: You shouldn't be the MVP. 904 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 3: A need of the other guys of the MVP. But 905 00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 3: he had a pretty good year two, So that offense 906 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 3: is gonna be just fine. They trade debo, don't really care. 907 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: Just fine. 908 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 3: They have a ton of weapons, more than anybody. They'll 909 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 3: be back. They'll be good. The other reason I like them, 910 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,440 Speaker 3: and the reason I think that they're like these Eagles. 911 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,439 Speaker 3: So the Eagles last year, what were they? They start 912 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 3: ten and one, they sputter down the stretch. We kind 913 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 3: of rode them all off this time of the year, like, ah, well, Eagles, 914 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 3: are they gonna fire? Siriani, is a time for a change, 915 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 3: as this thing run its course. What ten and one 916 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 3: still mattered? And they were coming off a Super Bowl loss. 917 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,879 Speaker 3: So fast forward forty nine ers coming off a Super 918 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 3: Bowl loss, not exactly ten and one. 919 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 1: They had all the injuries. And then what's one of 920 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 1: the big changes. 921 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 3: The Eagles go out and bring in Vic Fangio, the 922 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,399 Speaker 3: old head coach that didn't work out. Bring him back 923 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 3: to run the defense, same name we knew from before. 924 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 3: Look what happened, Robert Salah, give the man his flowers, 925 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 3: bring them back to run the defense. Not great as 926 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 3: a head coach, but man, the guy can coach some defense. 927 00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,360 Speaker 3: And look we just saw tonight big Fangio and Steve 928 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:04,880 Speaker 3: Spagnolo are failed head coaches who returned to be a 929 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 3: huge part of championship teams as the defensive coordinator. The 930 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 3: defense for the Niners missed three games from Nick Bosa 931 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 3: last year, five from Travai Sward, Ufanga missed ten Drake 932 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 3: Greenlaw basically missed the whole season. Not quite as bad 933 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 3: as the offense, but they're gonna get a lot healthier too. 934 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 3: Before this season they ranked defensively top five in DVAA 935 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 3: three straight seasons they were better than the offense. Two 936 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 3: of those seasons you kind of forget how good the 937 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 3: defense was too, and then they lost Robert sala and 938 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 3: then the lost Tamiko Ryans. Well, Robert Sala is back. 939 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 3: I think this Niners team is as good as any 940 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 3: team in the NFC, as good as the Eagles, even 941 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,319 Speaker 3: the one that just won the championship, as good as 942 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,240 Speaker 3: the Lions. I think better than them, given the losses 943 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,319 Speaker 3: that team's gonna hit. So if you look at kind 944 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 3: of where things stand, the Niners end up going six 945 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 3: and eleven, they were two and six and one score 946 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 3: games even just flipping those games just that for the season. 947 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,880 Speaker 3: Think with ten and seven, they win the division, they 948 00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,880 Speaker 3: make the playoffs, and maybe they're this team still talking 949 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 3: about today. I think they are next year's Eagles. I 950 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 3: think they should be priced even with the Eagles and 951 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 3: with the Lakers, who are both around like plus seven 952 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 3: plus eight hundred, we're getting double the value here. There 953 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,239 Speaker 3: are six in the odds. They're not totally forgotten. But 954 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 3: I know it's sexy to look down the board. And 955 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:24,320 Speaker 3: I'll give you another name in a second. 956 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: Here. 957 00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 3: You like to pick the long shot, but really the 958 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,200 Speaker 3: long shot in most cases you're going to like get 959 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 3: to a conference championship game and have to hedge out 960 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,320 Speaker 3: of it. The Niners can win this thing. The Niners 961 00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 3: can actually be the team we're talking about next year 962 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 3: right now, just like we are with the Eagles. So 963 00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,439 Speaker 3: San Francisco seventeen to one, the first Super Bowl pick 964 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 3: of the year, that is the twenty twenty six hot red. 965 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 2: I mean, anything I would have said that would have 966 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 2: even tried to question the pick. I think you probably 967 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:55,960 Speaker 2: answered I was going to bring up the debo at 968 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 2: angle of it. I mean, obviously you have faith and party, 969 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 2: or you wouldn't be making this bet. I mean, Shanahan 970 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,280 Speaker 2: and we know has been in multitude of different big games, 971 00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 2: so he can win it, he can lose it, but 972 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 2: he can get there. So I'm not I mean Arizona 973 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 2: the Rams like I don't necessarily know I have like Seahawks, 974 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 2: like I don't know if I worry about any of 975 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 2: those teams really, especially with not knowing kind of a 976 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 2: lot what's going to go on with McVeigh. The rest 977 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 2: of the division is kind of eh, so I completely 978 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,440 Speaker 2: get it. Do you want to give out your other 979 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 2: one or do you want me to go through a 980 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:32,360 Speaker 2: few names myself. 981 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll give a couple other ones, can do your names. 982 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 3: We'll wrap this thing up. 983 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: So that's that. Really, that's the hot read. 984 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 3: The rest of these are more nibbles that I may 985 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 3: put out there, the long shots to get close. So 986 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 3: I think we might be ready ready maybe after Sakuan 987 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 3: third place this year, McCaffrey third place last year, could 988 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,800 Speaker 3: we be right to finally get that running back MVP? 989 00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:59,240 Speaker 3: If I'm right about the Niners Christian McCaffrey one hundred 990 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 3: and fifty to one. I just I saw that name 991 00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 3: and I was like, man, I not want to be 992 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 3: the not running back sky But We've had now two 993 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 3: years in a row where running back went right up 994 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,920 Speaker 3: into the mix of things, and McCaffrey was basically Saquan. 995 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 1: Before he was hurt all year. 996 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:16,439 Speaker 3: So I think if the Niners really are that good, 997 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,799 Speaker 3: that number is too long. The other thing is in 998 00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:21,760 Speaker 3: the division, I do like another team. I think Seattle's 999 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:23,879 Speaker 3: gonna be really good next year. So maybe that's sis 1000 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 3: and I'm not like san franas much. To me, I 1001 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 3: wrote the article about the Niners being the next year's Eagles. 1002 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 3: I think the Seahawks could be next year's Vikings. That awesome, 1003 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:38,399 Speaker 3: awesome defense that dominates all the way. Team that's like, eh, 1004 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 3: maybe a five hundred team going into the year, Like 1005 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 3: I think their win total be probably like eight and 1006 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:46,760 Speaker 3: a half something like that. And instead this incredible defense 1007 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,840 Speaker 3: Mike McDonald's unit really came around second half of the season. 1008 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,399 Speaker 3: The problem was they couldn't block him and save their 1009 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:55,560 Speaker 3: lives and Gino really fell apart late. But okay, let's 1010 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,279 Speaker 3: take the analogy further. We the Vikings have this year 1011 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:02,759 Speaker 3: a failed washout Jets quarterback that had a really great 1012 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 3: career year with some good play calling. Okay, well, Gino 1013 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:09,880 Speaker 3: Smith is a washout Jets quarterback, and now the Seahawks 1014 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 3: bringing Clint Kubiak. Clint Kubiak the guy to leave the 1015 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 3: offense that was leading the Saints offense to start the 1016 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:17,279 Speaker 3: year when they put up like forty five a couple 1017 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:19,960 Speaker 3: games in a row to start out, and on like 1018 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 3: Week three, we're all naming him head coach of any 1019 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:25,799 Speaker 3: team he wanted after that. So I think Seattle could 1020 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 3: be pretty good next year. They got a lot of weapons, 1021 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:31,399 Speaker 3: they go find some blocking. Hopefully Seattle seventy to one 1022 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 3: to win the Super Bowl. Now, I think this is 1023 00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:36,160 Speaker 3: probably a hedge sort of option, but I think if 1024 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 3: they are the Vikings, could Seattle be like fourteen to 1025 00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 3: three and be the one seed win a game and 1026 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:45,120 Speaker 3: now you're hosting the NFC Championship. I think that is 1027 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 3: in play. So for me, seventy to one for that 1028 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 3: possible angle and then the crazy one too. You already 1029 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:53,480 Speaker 3: chuckled out when I mentioned it before the show. Gino 1030 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:56,319 Speaker 3: Smith one hundred and fifty to one MVP. When I'm 1031 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 3: looking at MVP right now, I'm just like scrolling down 1032 00:49:58,600 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 3: the list. 1033 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,600 Speaker 1: Where are the quarterbacks? Pass fifty to one? 1034 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,919 Speaker 3: Who's going to lead a team and can your team 1035 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 3: win enough for this to be a ridiculous price to me, 1036 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,520 Speaker 3: that's gino. So two Seahawks bets, two Niners bets, and 1037 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 3: the last one. I don't know if I've even seen 1038 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 3: Offensive Player of the Year odds. I get my eye 1039 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 3: on Nico Collins. I love to bet receivers for that award. 1040 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 3: I don't know if Diggs will be back, Tank Dell, 1041 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 3: I don't know if he'll ever be back. I'm not 1042 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:26,280 Speaker 3: sure what's happening with the injury. Really sad, but Nico 1043 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 3: was a monster this year, went healthy and then just 1044 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 3: picked up a lot of injuries. I think him and 1045 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 3: Stroud could have a huge season next year. He's a 1046 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 3: guy that I could see maybe opening like thirty five 1047 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 3: forty to one and bet down to more like twenty 1048 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 3: twenty five by the season. So if you get a 1049 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 3: price something like that, that's one kind of middle pick 1050 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,919 Speaker 3: that I might look to. I have a monster year, 1051 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:50,680 Speaker 3: especially the Texans have a big year. So Niners main 1052 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,879 Speaker 3: hot read Niners and Seahawks angles. Those are two teams 1053 00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,959 Speaker 3: I'm smelling feeling really good about going the next year. 1054 00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 3: Give me some of the teams you're thinking about your 1055 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 3: players for next season. 1056 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 2: I mean, just in terms of the teams, these are 1057 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 2: the teams that kind of just stood out when I 1058 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 2: was going up and down the list. So green Bay 1059 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:08,520 Speaker 2: at eighteen to one, I think is a little bit 1060 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,720 Speaker 2: too short, even though I think they're probably the best 1061 00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 2: among the top teams. The favorites right now are Casey 1062 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:18,400 Speaker 2: and Philly. That it's Baltimore, Buffalo, Detroit, San Francisco than 1063 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:21,680 Speaker 2: Green Bay just for awareness, that's every team eighteen to 1064 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 2: one and shorter. So the other teams with value I 1065 00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,359 Speaker 2: think are interesting is Houston so twenty seven to one. 1066 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,760 Speaker 2: Considering the Digs injury, the Dell injuries. You talked about 1067 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 2: Nico getting back the roster, which didn't I think they 1068 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 2: closed under twelve to one or fifteen to one this season. 1069 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 2: You're now getting twenty seven to thirty to one, which 1070 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,280 Speaker 2: I think is kind of intriguing, especially because that division 1071 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:48,160 Speaker 2: stinks and you're probably going to get into the playoffs anyway. 1072 00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:52,320 Speaker 2: Thirty feels a little bit long there. What about the Chargers, 1073 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:56,879 Speaker 2: So I mean, this might be absolutely crazy, but I mean, 1074 00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,560 Speaker 2: is there a world that they conquer the chief for 1075 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:03,319 Speaker 2: the AFC West next year? I mean, we really liked 1076 00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:06,400 Speaker 2: what they had. They do have another game of experience, 1077 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,919 Speaker 2: we like Harball, like there's a lot to like about them. 1078 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,640 Speaker 2: I wrote down Minnesota, I really don't think that's an option. 1079 00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:15,239 Speaker 2: I think they're a good number right now at like 1080 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,800 Speaker 2: thirty five to forty to one. The other two crazy 1081 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:21,319 Speaker 2: long shots to me Atlanta, which is between fifty and 1082 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 2: sixty to one. I mean that division again kind of stinks. 1083 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 2: And I know we like Carolina at points Tampa Bay's 1084 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:31,280 Speaker 2: shown promise, but to me, Atlanta still has a super 1085 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 2: talented roster, and fifty sixty to one is a nice 1086 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 2: number again getting into the playoffs. And then I have 1087 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:41,400 Speaker 2: to just say this last one, the Jets at one 1088 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,920 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty to one, with knowing there's no Rogers 1089 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:50,640 Speaker 2: and knowing the roster just feels a little long considering 1090 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:53,800 Speaker 2: New England's still a bit of a mess, Miami's probably 1091 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 2: gonna get worse before they get better. And yes, Buffalo 1092 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:01,279 Speaker 2: is Buffalo, but I don't know. One hundred and twenty 1093 00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:03,759 Speaker 2: to one getting out the garbage and if the new 1094 00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 2: stuff is good, feels like it's kind of a nice number. 1095 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 2: So that's the way I looked at Super Bowl Features. 1096 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 2: Any comments there before I throw you an MVP neighbor too. 1097 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw. I saw the Jets. 1098 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:17,920 Speaker 3: They looked a little bit intriguing to me at some 1099 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 3: similar thoughts. I must admit s Iron Rodgers one hundred 1100 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 3: to one, I was like, run it backack, But I 1101 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,239 Speaker 3: don't think we need to do that one again. I 1102 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,880 Speaker 3: will say with the Falcons, I think I'm less intrigued 1103 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:29,719 Speaker 3: by the sixty to one that you're probably looking like 1104 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:31,719 Speaker 3: a seattle, like, okay, can you get to the NC 1105 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 3: Championship and hedge? For me, I think I'm more intrigued, 1106 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 3: maybe by Michael Pennock's MVP. I think I saw that 1107 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 3: like ninety to one, so I can give you like 1108 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 3: the Falcons, you know, we kind of seen some of 1109 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 3: the sophomore winners in the past, and he's barely even 1110 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,120 Speaker 3: a sophomore. He barely even get to play this year, 1111 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 3: but he made some nice throws. He certainly has the 1112 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 3: arm for the position, so I could see kind of 1113 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 3: second year of that offensive system there getting him the 1114 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 3: reins to me a little more interesting. 1115 00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 1: I think the NFL I don't believe in the Falcons defense. 1116 00:53:57,000 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 1: I think this is a problem. 1117 00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:59,840 Speaker 3: So I think I'd rather almost rather not believe in 1118 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:01,840 Speaker 3: the defense, and Kinets has to do more stuff that 1119 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 3: way to oput up some MVP numbers. But to me, 1120 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:06,279 Speaker 3: I think that might be an MVP player. But I'm 1121 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:07,960 Speaker 3: curious who your other MVP names are. 1122 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,800 Speaker 2: Okay, so since twenty eighteen, these are the players to 1123 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 2: win MVP. It's mahomes Lamar Rogers and now Josh Allen. 1124 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,439 Speaker 2: Those are the only players to win MVP. I think 1125 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 2: what you're really looking at with why I'm telling you 1126 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:24,920 Speaker 2: that is running quarterbacks have now won back to back. 1127 00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:27,719 Speaker 2: When I say running quarterbacks, like it's part of the 1128 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:30,239 Speaker 2: resume for at the end of the season when you 1129 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,520 Speaker 2: look at their stats and say, holy crap, they had 1130 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 2: a crazy year. And I think the running part is 1131 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 2: a part of it. So like if I thought Anthony 1132 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,920 Speaker 2: Richardson could complete more than four out of ten passes, like, 1133 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,840 Speaker 2: he's an interesting concept at one hundred to one, but 1134 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 2: obviously not something I want to look at. So I 1135 00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 2: kind of want to focus on can I grab a 1136 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:52,720 Speaker 2: guy that I think might move like Stafford at fifty 1137 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:54,719 Speaker 2: to one, Like, do I feel like he's going to 1138 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 2: be there or in a better situation than might make 1139 00:54:57,719 --> 00:54:59,960 Speaker 2: that fifty to one even more intriguing because he's a 1140 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 2: guy that can sling it, like if he's in the 1141 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 2: right offense. So the other guy I want to look 1142 00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 2: at is some like running added to the passing. So 1143 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:10,359 Speaker 2: it's like, do I like Kyler Murray at fifty to one? 1144 00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 2: If I like Arizona because he could definitely put together 1145 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 2: a season that has a bunch of rushing touchdowns that 1146 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 2: you know, if they want enough games, his resume could 1147 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:21,560 Speaker 2: be good enough to win it. So that's one guy 1148 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 2: who was looking at. I think Jordan Love at like 1149 00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:26,880 Speaker 2: thirty to one is interesting, Like if Green Bay is 1150 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 2: eighteen to one and they're right in that mix, him 1151 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,839 Speaker 2: at thirty to one is intriguing. I can't remember if 1152 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:36,680 Speaker 2: it was you or someone else that parlayed the Packers 1153 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 2: and Loved to win MVP and this season, I think 1154 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:44,200 Speaker 2: that's an intriguing runback if you like what Green Bay does. 1155 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 2: There's talks about them getting Davante, so I think that 1156 00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 2: has likes. You also brought up running back. What do 1157 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:51,839 Speaker 2: you think about Jamior Gibbs at one hunter to one. 1158 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 2: I'm sure he can get it longer that at other 1159 00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 2: books as well, But you could not pick a more 1160 00:55:56,560 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 2: explosive back. And honestly, yeah, Montgomery stole and vultured and 1161 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,480 Speaker 2: he took a ton of touchdowns away from now Gibbs 1162 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 2: could be. But Montgomery is getting older, he got hurt 1163 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 2: this year. Gibbs is obviously the future there. The Lions 1164 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,480 Speaker 2: obviously are going to be very very, you know, high 1165 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:17,600 Speaker 2: powered on offense still, so I think Gibbs is intriguing 1166 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 2: given what you know. He could put up twenty plus 1167 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 2: touchdowns and you know, go kind of crazy. So that 1168 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 2: was the only other thought I had. 1169 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:27,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I would say I like the Gibbs idea. 1170 00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:29,720 Speaker 3: I think it sounds crazy, but I think one hundred 1171 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 3: to one is not high enough for me to want 1172 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 3: a better running back. But I think I need even 1173 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 3: longer than that, just like I really need Outlantae numbers 1174 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 3: because it's just so unlikely to happen. So I really 1175 00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:42,439 Speaker 3: like the Packers angle. Certainly, that's a team that if 1176 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:44,839 Speaker 3: the Packers had been just a little bit further down 1177 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 3: in the odds, I'm probably talking about them instead of 1178 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:48,960 Speaker 3: the forty nine ers. Like, definitely a team I was 1179 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 3: very high on the whole back half of the season. 1180 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:52,719 Speaker 1: Very high on Jordan. 1181 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:57,160 Speaker 3: Love to me, you listened off those MVPs, Josh Allen, 1182 00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:01,160 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson, Patrick Mahomes, that's who's winning it, and your 1183 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 3: takeaway is, okay, so I need someone who can run, 1184 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:06,680 Speaker 3: who could be like these quarterbacks. My takeaway was, why 1185 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 3: are we even talking about this? Is just like one 1186 00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:09,719 Speaker 3: of the top four quarterbacks at the end. 1187 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:10,840 Speaker 1: There's nothing to say. 1188 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:12,799 Speaker 3: It's one of the favorites there at the top and 1189 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:14,799 Speaker 3: that's all that happens to win the MVP. 1190 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 2: Or wait, or it's or it's the Rogers, And I 1191 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:22,280 Speaker 2: think the Rogers guy is Burrow, right, Like, if Burrow 1192 00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:25,400 Speaker 2: wins enough games this year, he's probably the MVP, So 1193 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 2: I think, But could Joe Burrow win MVP next year? 1194 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, But of course I would contend. I would contend 1195 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,440 Speaker 3: that Joe Burrow is in that mix of quarterbacks, like 1196 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 3: I would put him as good. I would personally put 1197 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 3: him still in with Lamar and ahead of Lamar personally 1198 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:40,520 Speaker 3: that's a topic for another day. 1199 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:42,400 Speaker 1: But like, I think he's in that mix. 1200 00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 3: So I think, to me, is okay, you know which 1201 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,160 Speaker 3: the questions that I would have on your picks is 1202 00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:51,920 Speaker 3: number one MVP. Can you actually not just put up 1203 00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 3: the stats, but can you put yourself in position to 1204 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 3: be in that mix of quarterbacks? Jordan Love I think 1205 00:57:57,480 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 3: still is a possibility, but I thought he would this 1206 00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 3: year step back CJ. 1207 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 1: Stroud, he could get there. Maybe Jayden Daniels. 1208 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,360 Speaker 3: I think we have to respect what Jane Daniels did 1209 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:08,800 Speaker 3: to this Eagles defense, now that we saw the Patrick 1210 00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 3: Mahomes didn't do to this Eagles defense, could he maybe 1211 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 3: be the guy? Like I think you need not just 1212 00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:16,040 Speaker 3: a guy to be flashy in fun, but can you 1213 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:21,880 Speaker 3: actually get into the Lamar maybe Burrow Alan Mahomes conversation. 1214 00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:24,240 Speaker 1: That's what you have to be. So I think, like 1215 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:25,000 Speaker 1: you know, I. 1216 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 3: Tried the Dak Prescott last year, Dak never getting into 1217 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 3: that group, Rock Purdy never getting into that group. Jared 1218 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:36,320 Speaker 3: Goff awesome season, never getting into that group. Sam Darnold 1219 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,160 Speaker 3: not a chance. Like maybe you know Gino Smith, the 1220 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:41,400 Speaker 3: guy I just mentioned a bit ago, not gonna happen, 1221 00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:43,480 Speaker 3: Like never going to be in that group of people. 1222 00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 3: Maybe you just have to be the MVP. And I 1223 00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:47,960 Speaker 3: think the other thing too, back to Super Bowl picks. 1224 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,560 Speaker 3: I have a really hard time looking for a sleeper 1225 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,760 Speaker 3: in the AFC, because in all likelihood you're gonna have 1226 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 3: to beat two at least of Mahomes, Alan and Lamar 1227 00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 3: in the playoffs. And the only reason I can hate 1228 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 3: too much on your picks is because at least you 1229 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 3: have Stroud or Herbert on them that maybe the reason 1230 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:08,560 Speaker 3: they won those games is because they joined into that group. 1231 00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:10,560 Speaker 3: I think if you're looking in the AFC and you 1232 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,280 Speaker 3: don't have a guy that you think can get there, 1233 00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:14,120 Speaker 3: like maybe you're hiring the Dolphins. 1234 00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 1: No, you're not hiding the Dolphins. 1235 00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:19,520 Speaker 3: Tua Tagovailoa is not beating multiple of those quarterbacks in 1236 00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:20,000 Speaker 3: the playoffs. 1237 00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 1: It's not happening. You know it, and I know it. 1238 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:27,440 Speaker 3: Maybe Stroud, maybe Herbert like ask that question before you 1239 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 3: keep going, and otherwise that ticket is dead on arrival. 1240 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:34,240 Speaker 3: The NFC is where we still don't know. Maybe Jordan 1241 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:35,320 Speaker 3: Love and Jane Daniels. 1242 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 1: Maybe we're gonna. 1243 00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:38,680 Speaker 3: Get a tier of NFC quarterbacks. But I think that, 1244 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,480 Speaker 3: to me is why I was higing the Eagles this year. 1245 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:43,680 Speaker 3: That's why the forty nine ers, that's where the Packers 1246 00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 3: look good. The Falcons, sure, why not? It's wide open? 1247 00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:50,320 Speaker 3: Could Michael Pennix be a top three NFC quarterback next year. 1248 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 3: I don't think so, but he could. It's possible. He 1249 00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:55,480 Speaker 3: can't be in the AFC, can't be like top five. 1250 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:57,919 Speaker 3: It's not happening. So at the end of the day, 1251 00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 3: we just talked through an entire super It wasn't just 1252 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:02,360 Speaker 3: the quarterback. 1253 01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:04,400 Speaker 1: It was the whole team. When it comes down to 1254 01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:07,640 Speaker 1: thickets you want and MVPs you want. Sorry, it's still 1255 01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:08,320 Speaker 1: the quarterback. 1256 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 2: No, you're right, But I do think part of the 1257 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:14,240 Speaker 2: bet now is a little bit of movement, right, Like 1258 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 2: if you can try to predict, I mean, there's going 1259 01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:18,720 Speaker 2: to be a bunch of movement. And I brought up 1260 01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:21,440 Speaker 2: Stafford because I think, you know, the Rams could have 1261 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 2: a whole new situation next season. I just think there's 1262 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 2: an opportunity there. I mean, I think there's like a 1263 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:29,560 Speaker 2: trading aspect when you're this far out, because you know 1264 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 2: you're you're giving the books a little bit of money. 1265 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:34,160 Speaker 2: All right, Well, super old Super Bowl fifty nine, you 1266 01:00:34,160 --> 01:00:35,360 Speaker 2: got anything else where? We good to go. 1267 01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:38,080 Speaker 3: I mean, I just want to say thanks thanks to you. 1268 01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 3: I've been a lot of fun on all these pods 1269 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:42,320 Speaker 3: all year.
