And now it's a hard decision, but for me, 117 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 8: where I'm at in my career, that's all I'm interested 118 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 8: in is getting another win. 119 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 2: So that was the first bit of info that we got, right, 120 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 2: so people picked sides at that point. I think people were, 121 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 2: you know, not super shocked that this was what was happening. 122 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 2: But then on Friday afternoon, Russ finally shared his side 123 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 2: of the story. 124 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 9: They came up to me during the bye week and 125 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 9: began the bye week on Monday or Tuesday, and they 126 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 9: told me that if I didn't change my contract, my 127 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 9: injury guarantee, that i'd be you know that i'd be 128 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 9: BNCH for the rest of the year. And I don't 129 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 9: know that we had nine games left the show. I 130 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 9: was definitely disappointed about it. 131 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 2: What yeah, what yeah, Like that is absolutely ridiculous. 132 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 4: I agree with you. 133 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 2: Like, let's break this down, Okay, Broncos asked Russ to 134 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 2: give money back after their Week eight win over the Chiefs. 135 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: The disrespect towards your quarterback, your leader who obviously, yes, okay, 136 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 2: his numbers have not been up to par for the 137 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 2: contract and everything that they have given this man, but 138 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 2: he is still he is trying to win. 139 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, he is giving you his all. 140 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 2: And then after all of this, RUSS came out and 141 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: won their next three games, came out of the bye 142 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 2: week to beat the Bills. The fact that Russ has 143 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 2: been playing and putting a smile on his face after 144 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 2: being threatened to adjust your contract or get benched. I 145 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 2: gotta give some mad respect right to Russell Wilson for 146 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 2: playing and winning through that situation. The bottom line, the 147 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 2: Broncos signed him to a contract. Why would anybody who 148 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 2: is getting money give that money back? Right, he doesn't 149 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 2: owe you anything, He doesn't have to do that. And 150 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: like I said, he is trying to help this ze, 151 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 2: this organization win. This feels so wrong and so dysfunctional 152 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 2: on an organizational and front office level. 153 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 5: Why did you think this was okay? 154 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 2: And did you think he wasn't gonna say anything because 155 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: Rush usually just puts a smile on his face and 156 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 2: takes one for the team. 157 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, this whole thing is so hard to really not 158 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,119 Speaker 3: be on Russ's side. 159 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 4: And listen, we all understand NFL. It's a business. We 160 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 4: get that. 161 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 3: We see that there's a lot of money in Wilson's contract. 162 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 3: We already knew that it's a new ownership group that 163 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 3: didn't give him that contract. We also know that he 164 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 3: is coming off a year where it wasn't so great. 165 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 3: He only threw sixteen touchdowns eleven interceptions denver ended five and. 166 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 4: Two last year. Like we all already knew that. 167 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 3: But like you just said, after you beat the Chiefs, 168 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 3: I believe it was their first time beating the Chiefs 169 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 3: since twenty fifteen. 170 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 4: Imagine the high that he was on Russell Wilson like going, going, yes, 171 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 4: feeling good. 172 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: We're on the right track. Correct, could still be in 173 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 2: the playoff hunt. 174 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 5: He wants to win. 175 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 2: At the end of the day, Russ is an extremely reliable, responsible, 176 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 2: respectful human. 177 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 3: And then I think about that game where Sean Payton 178 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 3: yelled at Russell Wilson on the sideline against the Lions 179 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 3: OK our blowout loss. 180 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 4: So let's get to that, right, because it's like, let's 181 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 4: get to. 182 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 2: That, because the bottom line is, Russell Wilson is not 183 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 2: Sean's Peyton's guy. 184 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 5: No, and this is personal. 185 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 2: It is personal, and Hayden made it very clear from 186 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 2: the start Russ was not his guy. The comments he 187 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 2: made in the article that came out in September, will 188 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 2: you stop effing kissing all the babies, you're not running 189 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:23,679 Speaker 2: for office? 190 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 4: No, Clearly Russ was going to be out no matter 191 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 4: what he did this season. 192 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 3: No, that's the only way that this is that this 193 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 3: all seems right with all this information. 194 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 4: He was going to be out no matter what he did. 195 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, And in that thinking of that moment where Russell 196 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 3: Wilson did not defend himself where he's getting yelled at 197 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 3: on the sideline. The only thing I can think of 198 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 3: is that he was either so shocked that he was 199 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 3: being spoken to like that, because Pete Carroll never talked 200 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 3: to him like that, never talked to him like that. 201 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 2: How we know his starting position was on the line. 202 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 2: He was being threatened to be bench That was constantly 203 00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 2: events week eight, being dangled over his over happened in 204 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,719 Speaker 2: his face, you talk back, You're what's gonna happen. You 205 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 2: don't do this, You're out. 206 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 3: It is insanul, it's evil, disrespectful. All of this was 207 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 3: handled terribly, and then Sean Payton's saying, all we're trying 208 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: to do is get to win number eight. 209 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 4: Be quiet. 210 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 3: I actually have a lot of friends who are Broncos fans, 211 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 3: and when the initial news came out that he was 212 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 3: being benched, I got to show with some of them 213 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 3: and they were like, I. 214 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 4: Don't get it. 215 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 3: Like there's there's a slim chance we could still make 216 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 3: the playoffs and our best option, yeah is Russell Wilson, 217 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 3: and so why are we benching him? Like fans are 218 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 3: like confused, Like actual Broncos fans, they weren't happy with that. 219 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 4: You ain't got a lie shot Peyton and you want. 220 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 3: All you're trying to do is win, because there's no 221 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 3: way you wanted him out. You don't like him for 222 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 3: whatever reason, and this was not the way to do it. 223 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 4: This was not the way to do it. Personality's not 224 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 4: his style. 225 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: It was in that moment Sean Payton yelling at Russ 226 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 2: on the sidelines two weeks ago against the Lions when 227 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 2: they lost forty two to seventeen, and Russ just stood there, 228 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 2: took it no reaction. Back in that moment, I personally 229 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 2: I felt the relationship and respect for each other was 230 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 2: just done. But obviously it was over in week eight 231 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 2: when they asked him to adjust his contract or be benched. Now, 232 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: this is at the top of this segment when I said, 233 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 2: I can see both sides, but I don't agree with 234 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 2: the way it was handled. Now, the reason the relationship 235 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,439 Speaker 2: is not surprising to me is because when you come 236 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: into a new place, a new organization, you want your 237 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 2: people around you. You're not gonna put your name and 238 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 2: your career on the line for someone you didn't choose. 239 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 2: And the Devor Broncos brought in Sean Payton to change 240 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 2: the organization, create a culture. So once they saw it 241 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 2: wasn't working between them, one of them had to go, 242 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 2: and the Broncos chose Sean Payton. 243 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 3: So you think that this was a decision made in 244 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 3: the season. To me, this was a decision made when 245 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 3: they brought Sean Payton in. They were like this, okay, 246 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 3: so this is. 247 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 4: The deal what I'm saying. But you're gonna get him out? 248 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, But I mean okay, but also when you look 249 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 2: at Russ, because when you get huge money, right, you're 250 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 2: going to get huge respect or huge criticism. And they 251 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 2: gave up two first round picks, two second round picks, 252 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 2: a fifth round pick, and three players. 253 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 5: So in the Broncos eyes, he has not been worth it. 254 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 4: We want to roll back, Like you get that at all? 255 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like Russ has had an eleven and nineteen record 256 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 2: over the last two seasons with the Broncos. That's not 257 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 2: going to cut it when you're getting paid millions of 258 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 2: dollars and the team gave up the farm for you. 259 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 4: But even with all that, like you said, right, it's 260 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 4: like you're just you just didn't handle this right, no 261 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 4: at all. 262 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 2: I mean it was and it's hard because again, this 263 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 2: is where the business side really sucks in sports. You 264 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 2: have to do what's best for the business, in the brand, 265 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 2: for the Broncos, a billion dollar business. You're going with 266 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 2: one of the best coaches of our time, Sean Payton, 267 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 2: who I also don't think handled this. 268 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 4: No really, but. 269 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 2: You're just having to take the loss. Like you're just 270 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 2: gonna have to take the l with Russ. He cannot 271 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 2: keep rolling with it. You cannot. You can't get those 272 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 2: picks and you can't get those players back. Yeah, and 273 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: at this point you got to cut your losses. So 274 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 2: I it's tough all around because I like, I see 275 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 2: why both sides feel the way they do. It was 276 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 2: just handled horribly. So the question is where does Russ 277 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 2: go from here? Well, where does he fit in? He's 278 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: not gonna be I don't see him being a backup. 279 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 2: I don't think anywhere Like we saw this kind of 280 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 2: like because of his name and his celebrity status. We 281 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: kind of saw this with Cam Newton. It doesn't fit 282 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 2: in an organization for him to be a backup somewhere. 283 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 2: Trading's not gonna happen. No, it's going to pick up 284 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 2: that contract. What do the Broncos do? I mean, they're 285 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 2: going to release him most likely and eat the contract. Yeah, 286 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 2: it's it's crazy. If they release him before March seventeenth, 287 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 2: it's like a eighty five million dead cap in twenty 288 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: twenty four. If they release him after June first, the 289 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: cap hit splits and it's thirty five point four million 290 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 2: and twenty twenty four and forty nine point six million 291 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty five. 292 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,239 Speaker 5: So it's they're gonna have to eat a lot of money. 293 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 4: No matter what, No matter matter what. It's it's not 294 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 4: a pretty situation. 295 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 3: Still, didn't handle it right for Russell Wilson and the 296 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 3: way just right. 297 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 4: You give him credit for knowing all of this, that's 298 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 4: how he's handled it. We eight and he just sat by. 299 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 2: Like literally threatening your like your job, your livelihood in 300 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 2: front of your face. 301 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 4: Did you see that? Gino Smith tweeted free three. 302 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, like it's like everyone everybody And once that came out, 303 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 2: no one's on the Broncos side anymore, even if he 304 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 2: didn't live up to the expectations. That is the most 305 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 2: disrespectful way to treat your quarterback, your face of the franchise, 306 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: your leader on the team, someone that's supposed to be 307 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 2: controlling the energy on the field. 308 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 6: Yeah. 309 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: No, and the fact that he went out there won 310 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 2: three games right after that, right five in a row, 311 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 2: kept file on his face, didn't say anything until you 312 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 2: kind of pushed his and to he had to sen himself. 313 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 5: People were creating a narrative. 314 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 2: If you don't share your side of the story, someone's 315 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 2: gonna create the narrative for you. And I mad props 316 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 2: and respect to Russ for handling it the way he did, 317 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: going out there and continuing to play and win even 318 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 2: after all this went down, because man, that's tough. 319 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 3: It is tough, and you know, I dramatic traumatic the 320 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 3: whole thing. 321 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 4: But I don't I think Russ will be on a 322 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 4: team next year. He will. 323 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 3: He will be because you were like he would.

Two times super Bowl champs. 385 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 2: They're having a dip. They're having a dip this season 386 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 2: and it's just not great. But that doesn't mean that 387 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 2: their dominant years are behind them because they've been dominant 388 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 2: for so long. 389 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,679 Speaker 5: Right, It's just when. 390 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: You have a team like the Chiefs, with Patrick Mahomes 391 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 2: Andy Reid the best quarterback coach duo in the league, 392 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 2: the bar is set extremely high. No matter what you do, 393 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 2: you come in it is super Bowl or bust. Yeah, 394 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 2: I mean that's most teams mentality. But that's their reality, 395 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 2: right because they can actually get there every single time. 396 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 2: But when anything drops below the greatness belt with the Chiefs, 397 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 2: people are panicking. And you know what I'll ask you 398 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: in a second, I'm not hitting the panic button. They're 399 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 2: nine to six, first in the AFC West, third in 400 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: the AFC. If they win or tie the Bengals this weekend, 401 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 2: they can clinch their division in a playoff berth. Do 402 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna win the Super Bowl this season. No, 403 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 2: they don't have the offensive weapons or strong receiving corps. 404 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 2: They still have the greatest, as I mentioned quarterback coach 405 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 2: Combo in the league. Patrick Mahomes is still out of 406 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 2: this world, the best quarterback in the NFL. 407 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 4: It's just not their season, us not their season. I 408 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 4: am hitting the panic button and I. 409 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 2: Want a season or in general for the Chiefs, I 410 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 2: specifically on this season. 411 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 3: I don't want to get ahead of myself like you 412 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,360 Speaker 3: just said that the championship window, super Bowl window is out, 413 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 3: or like their dominating years are out. 414 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 4: I'm not jumping the gun like that, but. 415 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 3: I do want to hit the panic button because I 416 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 3: feel that they are still figuring things out and we 417 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 3: are at the end of the season when other teams 418 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 3: have figured it out and are in a groove. 419 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 4: And that's what worries me. 420 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 3: When you have I agree with you the best quarterback 421 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 3: because Patrick Mahomes is. When you have the best quarterback 422 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 3: and you aren't scared to face the Chiefs with the 423 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 3: best quarterback, that's not a good sign. And why are 424 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 3: they not scared because they've been inconsistent. They haven't figured 425 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 3: it out. We know the problems, We've seen the problems, 426 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 3: and they haven't been able to fix it. 427 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 4: And here we are, week seventeen. 428 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 3: If you haven't figured it out, we're gonna figure it 429 00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 3: out in the first week of playoffs. 430 00:19:59,400 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 11: It's hard. 431 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 5: The issue is they don't have the offensive weapons. 432 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 12: Right. 433 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey has twenty one more targets than anyone else 434 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 2: on the team and he has not looked one hundred 435 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 2: percent all season. No, Rashie Rice has been the number 436 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 2: two target behind Kelsey and he is a rookie. 437 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:14,880 Speaker 5: All right. 438 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 2: Chiefs offense are last in the league in dropped passes 439 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 2: with the most talented guy throwing it to you, twenty 440 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 2: seventh in giveaways. After this season, they're gonna go out 441 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 2: and they're gonna get some weapons for Patrick mahomes. 442 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 4: They they have to. They have to. 443 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 2: You cannot waste Mahomie in his prime. Everyone loves seeing 444 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 2: that guy in the playoffs and in the super Bowl 445 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 2: and in the championship games. Like that's where he deserves 446 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 2: to be. But like, let's look at their matchup real quick. 447 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 2: You mentioned when people aren't scared to face you So 448 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 2: we got Bengals at Chiefs. 449 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 5: Chiefs are still favored by seven. 450 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 2: This is usually the match of the season, the matchup, 451 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 2: but no job for the Bengals. Chiefs seed a statement win. 452 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 2: As I mentioned, they can clinch a playoff berth with 453 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 2: a win or a tie. But Bengals be giving them 454 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 2: some bulletin board material. 455 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 5: This is a Jamar Chase being asked about playing the Chiefs. 456 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 13: I know what I see on paper, I know I 457 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,479 Speaker 13: see in game. That's why they double everybody because they 458 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 13: can't do it one on one. The best player on 459 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 13: their team is sneak. And that's a fact. Everybody knows that. 460 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 13: That's why they double double everything they see. They know 461 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 13: I'm good, they know how to play us. That's what 462 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 13: it is. But it's not like they got a superstar 463 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 13: on their defense. 464 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 7: They can take hot they on. 465 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 10: I don't care. I mean at the end of the day. 466 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 13: At end of the day, is so much that I 467 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 13: can do myself. It's not like I'm iron man. I 468 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 13: can't throw the football to myself. You know what I'm saying. 469 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 3: Like it's a team sport, Jamar, I always open like 470 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 3: seven to eleven. 471 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 4: I can't with you. I can't. 472 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 2: But this, it's interesting. This, This should be a good one. 473 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 2: Obviously not going to be a great one because you 474 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 2: don't have Burrough and Mahomes and Mahomee Homes doesn't have 475 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 2: offensive weapons like he normally does in years past.

So I was I was 589 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 12: very I was very excited, and it was hilarious. 590 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 5: I'm so happy for you, So take the fan hat off. 591 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 4: That's good question. 592 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 5: How much of a chance are you giving the Lions 593 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 5: to make a Super Bowl run? 594 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 12: Well, it really depends to me. On their defense. I 595 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 12: do think their offense, especially on the NFC side of things, 596 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 12: is well equipped to take a deep run. But I'm 597 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 12: very confused what happens. There's very little pass rush. Of course, 598 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 12: Aiden Hutchinson, you know he has been great, but one 599 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 12: pass rusher does not a pass rush made. Yes, we 600 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 12: have some some James Houston might come back, but this 601 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 12: is a team that maybe is out like I think 602 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 12: it may be a bit outperformed like expectations. They're still 603 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 12: in a rebuild. I don't even think if you were 604 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 12: to ask them this time last year, if they, you know, 605 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 12: would think they're a super Bowl ready team. 606 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 7: Sure it would be. 607 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 12: Fun, but I think the defense does need a little 608 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 12: help obviously. You know CJ. Gartner Johnson comes back next week. 609 00:27:59,400 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 7: That's very help. 610 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 12: But this is a very poor secondary that it just were. 611 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 12: It's just a little scary they go as far as 612 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 12: their defense goes, in my opinion. 613 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, so keep the fan hat off. 614 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 3: What are you expecting for tonight's matchup against the Cowboys? 615 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 12: Well, you're gonna see what I'm talking about because Seedee Lamb, 616 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 12: who has the most yards from the slot for the 617 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 12: past two seasons, yards, receptions, and touchdowns from the slot 618 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 12: past two seasons, both this season and last season. I 619 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 12: don't think they have an answer for him. Inside, Brian 620 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 12: Branch has been good. That's their defensive back that they 621 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 12: drafted out of Alabama. But I don't know if they'll 622 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 12: you know, obviously, look, Steede Lamb's the only guy in 623 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 12: the league to have at least six hundred yards when 624 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 12: lined up out wide and at least six hundrey yards 625 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 12: when lined up in the slot, only guy this entire season. 626 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 12: So I just don't think they'll have an answer for him. 627 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,959 Speaker 12: So I don't expect a big showing, but I do 628 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 12: expect the offense to look better. The Detroit Lions offense 629 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 12: to look better. High scoring game. I do think Dallas wins, 630 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 12: but I don't think it's like some blowout like forty 631 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 12: nine to ten. I think it's like, you know, twenty 632 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 12: seven two something like that. 633 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 2: Okay, So Cynthia, the breaking news this week the Broncos 634 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 2: are benching Russell Wilson. Then on Friday, Rush shared his 635 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 2: side of the story that the Broncos asked him to 636 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 2: adjust his contract or be benched. 637 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 4: What's your thoughts in reaction to this whole situation. 638 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 12: Well, on some level at least, like this stuff happens 639 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 12: all the time, and we don't really hear it. Remember 640 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 12: a couple of years ago, like Sam Darnold got Mono 641 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 12: somehow and you're like what and then you know, you 642 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 12: see and maybe Zach Wilson this year is kind of 643 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 12: like maybe they're not you know, he's hurt their quotes 644 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 12: for part right, So maybe you don't always hear it. 645 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 12: So there's some degree of like transparency that I appreciate. 646 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 12: I'm glad Russ told his side of the story, so 647 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 12: now we know the full thing, because at first it 648 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 12: was just really weird. But you know, from a as 649 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 12: a business, as a business speculator. It's not great because 650 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 12: you've lost a lot of leverage knowing you're not going 651 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 12: to keep him. However, everyone arelready knows all the secrets 652 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 12: people try to pull. No one thinks that the Jets 653 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 12: are like, hey, we really want to keep Zach Wilson, 654 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 12: right Like no one's trick. So I appreciate the transparency. 655 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 12: I'm glad Russ at his piece, But I mean, I 656 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 12: don't know what the Broncos are going to do no 657 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 12: matter what. Their cap is not in a good place, 658 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 12: so I'm not sure how they're going to overcome this. 659 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 12: I know the salar CAF will go up forecasted to 660 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 12: go up again, but it's not like it's going to 661 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 12: go up so much that you can make like a 662 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 12: thirty million dollar mistake. 663 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, so the Broncos, maybe you're looking for a new quarterback, 664 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 3: But do you think that Tampa Bay Buccaneers have found 665 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 3: their quarterback in Baker Mayfield. 666 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 12: They might kind of have had to because look at 667 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 12: the place that they'll likely be drafting. They're in the 668 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 12: position right now to win the division and obviously and 669 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 12: host a home PLAYFS game. 670 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 7: Which is crazy. 671 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 12: So you know you're not going to be drafting high 672 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 12: enough up or have enough equity to be able to 673 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 12: go up and get that guy without really selling the 674 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 12: mortgaging the farm, right, So I don't know. I mean, 675 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 12: Baker's played really well. It's really like there, Dave Canal 676 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 12: as their offensive coordinator, deserves a ton of credit for 677 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 12: figuring out how to make a run game out. 678 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 7: Of short passes. 679 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 12: That's really what's happening with Rushaan White, who catches ninety 680 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 12: two percent of his passes when he's facing zone coverage. 681 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 12: They're short passes, but who cares? So I think they 682 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 12: they kind of they kind of did well enough where 683 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 12: you're like, yeah, we'll. 684 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 11: Might as well. 685 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 12: It's it's it's I don't think it's a long term. 686 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:34,719 Speaker 12: I don't think this is like a situation where ten 687 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 12: years from now to be like, wow, like here he 688 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 12: is still. But I think it's something where next year 689 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 12: or two, especially if they keep winning, you're not in 690 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 12: a great spot to go get that quarterback. Even if 691 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 12: this is like, you know, every year we're like there's 692 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 12: at least three good quarterbacks. Well, this year we've seen 693 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 12: so many guys starts that weren't drafted very high, and 694 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 12: you know, and that's even before you get into the 695 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 12: brock pretty mister irrelevant conversation. 696 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 4: Well, this was the year of the backup court. 697 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 12: Back stops some court. 698 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco has led the Browns to a playoff birth. 699 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 2: How impressed are you that he came off of his 700 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 2: couch five weeks ago and now he's playoff bound. 701 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 12: First of all, Joe Flacco's rebranding in like five weeks 702 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 12: has been epic. Number One, he curses, who knew? I 703 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 12: thought he was too boring to curse. I love that 704 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 12: thing where he dropped a whole bunch. 705 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 7: Of s bombs. 706 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 12: He's super fun. Number Two. If you watch the film 707 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 12: of him after the game with the Jets, he's like 708 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 12: this guy he said it probably seven times, which as 709 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 12: a thirty you know he's thirty eight, right, and it's 710 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 12: kind of like our age, Like that's exactly what. 711 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 7: I or you or anything. 712 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 2: Hey, this guy, did you see like falling asleep too 713 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 2: on the bench, like any dad with five kids, just 714 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 2: like you, got a moment to say, he's he's out. 715 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 4: I love him, No. 716 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 12: I love I love everything about this. But here's the 717 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 12: best part. This offense is actually well suited for his 718 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 12: heelset and I love the fact that he's working with 719 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 12: such an elite defense and making those deep shuts. I mean, obviously, 720 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 12: Mars people didn't play this last game, but of those 721 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 12: two hundred and sixty five yards two games ago, two 722 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 12: hundred and fourteen came on vertical routes that were down 723 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 12: the field, which, by the way, he's setting like franchise 724 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 12: records for deep passing. And they're paying another guy like 725 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 12: you know, million year. 726 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, guaranteed, and they're like beautiful, perfectly passed. 727 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 5: It feels like they're just so in sync. 728 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 2: Yes with him, it was like that veteran like father 729 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 2: figure that everybody needed to come on to the team. 730 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 5: It's it's beautiful. I'm so happy for him. 731 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 2: Okay, before we let you go, let's look at the 732 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 2: playoff bubble hunt. Who is making it in to the 733 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 2: last playoff spot? Starting with the AFC. You got the 734 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 2: Bills at sixth right now the Colts at seventh. 735 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 4: Who do you see making it in? 736 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 12: Well, the quote would be interesting to me because they're 737 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 12: kind of I mean, they're someone got in trouble, but 738 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 12: they're also so banged up that it's really hard to 739 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 12: kind of figure out so right now now I have 740 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 12: you know, Chiefs, obviously I'm making to make it in 741 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 12: Browns already in Bills. 742 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 7: It's between to me. 743 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 12: I actually I give a slight edge, maybe like two percentage. 744 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 7: Points to the Colts. 745 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,320 Speaker 12: But the Texans. If I were if I were placing 746 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 12: a longer term, yeah, if I were thinking like this 747 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,280 Speaker 12: time next week, if you ask me that same question, 748 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 12: I feel like it's going to be the Texans that 749 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 12: are in and the Colts that are out. The Colts, 750 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,959 Speaker 12: it's so interesting. Their defense gets a really high top 751 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 12: five pressure rate, but when they pressure, they're allowing a 752 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 12: bottom two completely percentage. So the pressures aren't working, meaning 753 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 12: like they're they're able to get pressure, but it's not 754 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 12: really effective pressure, which is like that's not always a 755 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 12: great sign for anything. But you know, and by the way, 756 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 12: if somehow the Bengals pull off this upset of. 757 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 2: I think they will, you think they will, Jamar is 758 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 2: just like they ain't got nothing on us. 759 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 12: But if they do, that's a team that could somehow 760 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 12: interesting back like because it's so interesting the last few 761 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 12: weeks of the season with this one. But if if 762 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 12: it were me, I feel if I were a betting person, 763 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 12: which I'm not because I work for the NFL, YEP, 764 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 12: I would I would say the Texans. 765 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 2: I would say the Texans, okay, and then real quick, NFC, 766 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,439 Speaker 2: you got rams at six, Seahawks at seventh right now, 767 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 2: who's going to be those top two spots? 768 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 12: I think I think that's it that I think the Lions. 769 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 12: I think that when I'm looking at the opportunity for 770 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 12: you know, Matthew Stafford to go back to Detroit, I 771 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,399 Speaker 12: don't want it. I don't want it. 772 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,759 Speaker 4: So many people would want Yeah, everyone wants that. 773 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 5: That's the most epic thing ever. 774 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 2: I Stafford don't team go against his whole team, Like, 775 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 2: give it to me, give it to me. 776 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 7: I mean, like what. 777 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 12: Last week? I was talking to myself into like maybe 778 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 12: the wild Cards better because then we could play the 779 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 12: winner of the NFC self. So I was like trying 780 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 12: to talk myself into that, but it's not gonna happen. 781 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 5: It's the difference. 782 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 7: By the way the game the. 783 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 12: Hawks, the Green Bay Packers and the Minnesota Vikings game 784 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 12: Jaron Hall game that is going to be a really 785 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 12: interesting one because the Packers playoff on Skyrocket. Because of 786 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 12: all the way that the tie breakers work out. 787 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're eighth and nine and they're both seven and eight, 788 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 2: so it's exactly crazy right now. 789 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 12: Yeah, so Packers could have a real like if the 790 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 12: Packers win, which I mean, look back to me. That game, 791 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 12: to me is a coin flip, complete coin. 792 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: Flip, totally. 793 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 12: The only thing I would look at them that is 794 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:26,880 Speaker 12: ty tam. They're having a big game just because you 795 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 12: can run on the Packers. But yeah, look like that's 796 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 12: a wild situation where the Packers can go from nearly 797 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 12: out of it to all the way right back and 798 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 12: meek in. 799 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 2: It's gonna be so much fun.

I mean, he was 983 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 2: on his couch with his five kids, throwing passes with 984 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 2: his family before getting picked up by the Browns, and 985 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 2: the moment that he arrived, he saved this team like 986 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 2: he was the veteran presence. I said last segment, that 987 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 2: just felt like this father figure that took control role 988 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,720 Speaker 2: of this locker room. You can see him coaching guys 989 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 2: on the field while he's playing. And just remember you, guys, 990 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco knows what it takes to win. He won 991 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:10,920 Speaker 2: a super Bowl in twenty twelve. He was a Super 992 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:14,800 Speaker 2: Bowl MVP. And if you compare these last four games 993 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 2: to his twenty twelve playoff run, the numbers just stick 994 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 2: with me here are extremely close. Okay, in the four 995 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,839 Speaker 2: games his last far hands of the Browns versus four 996 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 2: playoff games in twenty twelve, four and oh with the 997 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 2: Browns sixty two point five completion percentage his Super Bowl 998 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 2: year fifty seven point nine completion percentage, passing yards per 999 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 2: game with the Browns three hundred and forty his twenty 1000 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 2: twelve Super Bowl run two hundred and eighty five passing 1001 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 2: touchdowns eleven for both. 1002 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 4: He is looking great. 1003 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:52,360 Speaker 3: He has, honestly has been such a fun story.

And remember that they didn't 1037 00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 2: do that was that he reached out that he was Okay, I'm. 1038 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,919 Speaker 4: Just hanging out my kids.

There was a lot of hype around 1057 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,439 Speaker 2: this team heading into the Sea. That's why they lived 1058 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:21,760 Speaker 2: up to it.

Yeah, 1082 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:20,880 Speaker 5: Okay on tour next. 1083 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 2: Are you surprised that the Ravens are the best team 1084 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 2: in the NFL. I'm gonna say a little. Ravens have 1085 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 2: the best record in the NFL twelve and three. I'm 1086 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 2: a little surprised, but I also feel like I shouldn't 1087 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 2: be because of Lamar Jackson. They have one of the 1088 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 2: most naturally talented quarterbacks who was also a former MVP. 1089 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 5: And now the favorite to win MVP again. 1090 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,359 Speaker 2: After the clinic he put on against the forty nine ers, 1091 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 2: and even though he doesn't rank in the top of 1092 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 2: any of the top quarterback stats, he's winning games. I 1093 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 2: mean Lamar Jackson quarterback that's fifteenth, and passing yards fourteenth, 1094 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:08,920 Speaker 2: and passing touchdowns eighth and passer rating eleventh in completion percentage. 1095 00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:11,120 Speaker 2: But they have the best record in the league. He 1096 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 2: is winning games and he is the MVP favorite. Are 1097 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 2: you surprised that the Ravens are have the best team 1098 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 2: in the NFL? 1099 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,640 Speaker 3: I'm not just because the Ravens identity for years has 1100 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 3: always been defense and that is their bread and butter. 1101 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 3: Even though every good team this season has had like 1102 00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:32,800 Speaker 3: a weird loss. 1103 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:36,200 Speaker 4: It's been a weird year for football, right, everybody's had 1104 00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 4: like a weird loss. 1105 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 5: May backup, quarterbacks are at an hour in the fifties. 1106 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 4: You know what I mean. 1107 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 3: And so like, I'm not just because their defense has 1108 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 3: been their identity. But I will tell you why I 1109 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:49,640 Speaker 3: am because they lost Lamar Jackson, lost his favorite target, 1110 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 3: Mark Andrews, and they're still managing to, you know, put 1111 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:58,359 Speaker 3: up points and defense is just Kyle, Kyle, What's what's 1112 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:01,319 Speaker 3: the safety for the Baltimore Ravens. So good, But like 1113 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:05,040 Speaker 3: their defense has always been their identity, So like you 1114 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:06,879 Speaker 3: can never you know, yeah, count them out? 1115 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,040 Speaker 5: You can't, you can't. Okay, we got one more. 1116 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 2: Are you surprised by brock Perty's performance against the Ravens? 1117 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 4: And I'm gonna say, yes. 1118 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:23,240 Speaker 2: Perty got rattled, he got Bertie rattled. But two things 1119 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 2: can be true here. You gotta respect Lamar Jackson for 1120 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 2: the clinic he put on the forty nine ers and 1121 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 2: the way the defense just came after Purty as you 1122 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 2: just mentioned, that has been their red and butter. But 1123 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:40,120 Speaker 2: one bad game does not define brock Perty's career. 1124 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 5: Everybody has them. 1125 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 2: This is just his first one and he went into 1126 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:48,799 Speaker 2: it as the MVP favor. Honestly, I feel like people 1127 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 2: have been waiting for this moment. Last season is like, 1128 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,320 Speaker 2: can't he can't be this good? When is it gonna happen? 1129 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 2: He's got to fail at some point. Then finally he 1130 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 2: does a year two and everybody freaks. You guys, it 1131 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:03,759 Speaker 2: is one game. Everybody has one bad game, plus a 1132 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 2: little adversity is good for him. And it better that 1133 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 2: it happens now than in the playoffs, because you don't 1134 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 2: have a chance to correct this in the playoffs.

I am not 1493 01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:25,360 Speaker 7: on at all. I am merely a man who's story 1494 01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:29,360 Speaker 7: when it comes to experiments, and I gotta say I'm 1495 01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:31,360 Speaker 7: not the only one. My play by player, A Niche 1496 01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 7: who was on that call with me, he is not, 1497 01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:36,480 Speaker 7: say as open minded with his palate. He's got as 1498 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:38,560 Speaker 7: gross as I am. He gave it a try and 1499 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 7: he's doing the same thing. It wasn't really as bad 1500 01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:41,440 Speaker 7: as he expected. 1501 01:07:41,880 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 4: You can try it next week. I can't. I can't, 1502 01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 4: I can't. 1503 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:49,000 Speaker 2: Let's dive into some college football playoffs, starting with the 1504 01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:53,040 Speaker 2: Rose Bowl game Alabama against Michigan. Michigan has overcome a 1505 01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:55,800 Speaker 2: lot of adversity this season and they're still in the 1506 01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:58,400 Speaker 2: middle of the noise with the Harbaugh NFL rumors. 1507 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 5: What are you expecting to see from Michigan on Monday? 1508 01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:05,920 Speaker 7: So I'm expecting Michigan to be resilient for all the 1509 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,320 Speaker 7: reasons that you've mentioned, and even in the late season 1510 01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:11,640 Speaker 7: where they got to the difficult games in their schedule 1511 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:13,560 Speaker 7: Penn State and Ohio State, we knew it was really 1512 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 7: a two and then three game season for them. In 1513 01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:19,560 Speaker 7: the Big Ten Championship against Iowa, that was where we 1514 01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:22,600 Speaker 7: finally saw this coaching staff that was down Jim Harbott 1515 01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:25,400 Speaker 7: that point, that had their offensive coordinator Shroan More stepping 1516 01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:28,720 Speaker 7: up make the adjustments necessary to give them a chance 1517 01:08:28,800 --> 01:08:31,479 Speaker 7: to win and ultimately get the job done in those games. 1518 01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:34,840 Speaker 7: My biggest concern though with them is now, are they 1519 01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:37,679 Speaker 7: going to be resilient. They've gotten a great veteran offensive line, 1520 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 7: they've got a veteran running back in Lake Corum, a 1521 01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 7: quarterback and JJ McCarthy who's been there. But also I 1522 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:45,960 Speaker 7: don't know if can be the top end reason why 1523 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:49,559 Speaker 7: they win. I'm concerned about a firepower ability to match 1524 01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:52,280 Speaker 7: Alabama blow for blow because the one thing we've seen 1525 01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:55,519 Speaker 7: from this Crimson tied outfit really since after the Texas 1526 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:59,240 Speaker 7: and South Florida game was an ability to capitalize regularly 1527 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:03,040 Speaker 7: on the plays, whether it's going downfield or whether it's 1528 01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:06,000 Speaker 7: Jalen Milroe being able to go and get plays done 1529 01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:09,040 Speaker 7: with his legs, And so I think that's my biggest concern. 1530 01:09:09,160 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 7: Can JJ McCarthy in this Michigan offense get into a 1531 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,920 Speaker 7: shootout and win if that's the route it goes with Alabama. 1532 01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 3: We got to talk about the other big game of 1533 01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:19,679 Speaker 3: the Sugar Bowl Washington Texas. 1534 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:23,800 Speaker 4: Texas is favored and I want to I. 1535 01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 3: Want to know why because I think Michael Pennix Junior 1536 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:28,280 Speaker 3: is the better quarterback than quin yours. 1537 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:31,640 Speaker 4: Why do you think Texas is favored. 1538 01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:31,760 Speaker 3: In this game? 1539 01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 7: So I think with Texas, we've seen them one have 1540 01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:38,720 Speaker 7: probably the best win in college football this year, going 1541 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:40,720 Speaker 7: on the road beating the Alabama team we were just 1542 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,599 Speaker 7: talking about from the Rose Bowl in their home environment, 1543 01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:45,920 Speaker 7: a way that doesn't happen very often. Even if you 1544 01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,040 Speaker 7: want to say this isn't one of Bama's better teams 1545 01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:50,479 Speaker 7: or one of Sabans better teams, that was a win 1546 01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:53,160 Speaker 7: that in a lot of people's eyes validated what they 1547 01:09:53,280 --> 01:09:55,200 Speaker 7: might have already felt. You know, a bit of confirmation 1548 01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:57,360 Speaker 7: bias when you look at Texas, because if you talk 1549 01:09:57,439 --> 01:09:59,680 Speaker 7: to anyone who coached in the Big Twelve since they 1550 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,639 Speaker 7: start Steve Sarkijian got there as the head coach, they've 1551 01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:05,400 Speaker 7: said they're the most talented team in the conference walking 1552 01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:08,479 Speaker 7: off the bus. There's nobody that's going to outcook the 1553 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 7: part the way Texas does. But we finally saw them 1554 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:14,640 Speaker 7: match it with the on field consistency, especially along the 1555 01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,080 Speaker 7: lines of scrimmage. And so I think because of that, 1556 01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:19,280 Speaker 7: because of all the talent they've got, not only on 1557 01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:21,679 Speaker 7: offense where sark is you know, the bread and butter. 1558 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:24,559 Speaker 7: But on defense now, the way that defensive front has 1559 01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:26,680 Speaker 7: stepped up, the way they've gotten after the quarterbacks, the 1560 01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:29,000 Speaker 7: way they've held up against the run up front with 1561 01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,720 Speaker 7: guys like Byron Murphy and the Outlet Trophy winner to 1562 01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:34,680 Speaker 7: Andre Sweat. I think that's probably why, even though I'm 1563 01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:38,240 Speaker 7: with you, I would be picking Washington to win this game, 1564 01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:40,360 Speaker 7: because we've seen them be able to step up in 1565 01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:42,840 Speaker 7: big moments, and that offense, to me, just plays a 1566 01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 7: little bit more clean and a little bit more consistent 1567 01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:46,520 Speaker 7: than it's Texas counterparts. 1568 01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:50,240 Speaker 2: Okay, Mike, there was a lot of controversy over an 1569 01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:56,280 Speaker 2: undefeated Florida State not getting into the College football Playoffs. 1570 01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:58,599 Speaker 2: I mean, what we're seeing right now, obviously they don't 1571 01:10:58,640 --> 01:11:01,840 Speaker 2: have all of their top guy in losing thirty five 1572 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:03,679 Speaker 2: to three to Georgia as we speak. 1573 01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:06,600 Speaker 5: Was this the right call? Did the committee get it 1574 01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:07,799 Speaker 5: right with these four teams? 1575 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:11,960 Speaker 7: So I think the committee got us two great matchups 1576 01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:14,559 Speaker 7: in four very good teams, but no Florida State should 1577 01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:16,760 Speaker 7: have been in here based on how we've done this 1578 01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:19,639 Speaker 7: for the other nine years of the college football playoff. 1579 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:22,280 Speaker 7: People always say it's supposed to be a combination, that 1580 01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:24,720 Speaker 7: that's their most deserving, But if you go back and 1581 01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:27,719 Speaker 7: look at every Final four from the previous nine years 1582 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,920 Speaker 7: of this decade of the CFP, it's almost always been 1583 01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:34,960 Speaker 7: the teams that are most deserving, meaning whose resumes stood 1584 01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:37,560 Speaker 7: out and accomplished enough to earn them a spot in 1585 01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:40,679 Speaker 7: the dam. The old BCS computers, the thing everybody hated 1586 01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:43,479 Speaker 7: so much back in the day, gave us basically the 1587 01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:47,840 Speaker 7: identical four every year until this season. So though I 1588 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:49,920 Speaker 7: think the committee got it wrong, I think Florida State 1589 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:52,960 Speaker 7: should have been rewarded with the opportunity based on what 1590 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 7: they did. Because they were down the best player on 1591 01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,439 Speaker 7: their team and still managed to win an out of 1592 01:11:57,520 --> 01:12:01,560 Speaker 7: conference SEC matchup on the road into the ACC championship 1593 01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:04,960 Speaker 7: game and go undefeated. It sends a bad message I 1594 01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:07,400 Speaker 7: think in overall, even though they'll get bailed out by 1595 01:12:07,439 --> 01:12:10,160 Speaker 7: great TV ratings for really great games, was not the 1596 01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:11,920 Speaker 7: right moves all. 1597 01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:14,120 Speaker 2: Right now, Mike, I mentioned this kind of in the 1598 01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:16,679 Speaker 2: first question when we were talking about Michigan. The noise 1599 01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,800 Speaker 2: they've been dealing with so much adversity, and obviously the 1600 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:23,919 Speaker 2: noise right now is is Harbaugh going to leave Michigan 1601 01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:25,720 Speaker 2: and coach in the NFL again? 1602 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:27,080 Speaker 5: What are your feelings around this? 1603 01:12:28,840 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 6: Man? 1604 01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:31,519 Speaker 7: I feel like trying to predict Jim Harbaugh's future is 1605 01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:34,600 Speaker 7: like trying to predict Aaron Rodgers future. It's almost impossible 1606 01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:37,320 Speaker 7: because what goes on inside their head is the history 1607 01:12:37,600 --> 01:12:38,200 Speaker 7: the rest of us. 1608 01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:38,600 Speaker 4: I love it. 1609 01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:43,040 Speaker 7: I will say this. I could see Harbass staying it 1610 01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:45,280 Speaker 7: feels like a coin flip right now. But the one 1611 01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:46,680 Speaker 7: thing I will say is a lot of people are 1612 01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,920 Speaker 7: going to make this about running from the eventual NCAA 1613 01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 7: sanctions that might come down. And we saw Michigan had 1614 01:12:53,640 --> 01:12:56,400 Speaker 7: a notice of allegations come from the NCAA related to 1615 01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:59,800 Speaker 7: another incident, the Hamburger recruiting incident. For anybody that doesn't 1616 01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:03,880 Speaker 7: re remember, Jim Harbass supposedly allegedly during a recruiting debad 1617 01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:07,080 Speaker 7: period around the pandemic was had a couple of recruits 1618 01:13:07,080 --> 01:13:09,640 Speaker 7: in towns that he bought cheeseburgers at a restaurant on 1619 01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:12,759 Speaker 7: campus when he wasn't supposed to, and the SF stuff 1620 01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:16,120 Speaker 7: getting around to that right now. I say that and 1621 01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:18,720 Speaker 7: bring that up to say, I don't know how long 1622 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:21,559 Speaker 7: it's going to take the n sort through these problems 1623 01:13:21,600 --> 01:13:24,799 Speaker 7: we saw with the NCAA hoops probes. It took years 1624 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:27,560 Speaker 7: for them to even think about punishing Kansas, and in 1625 01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:31,080 Speaker 7: that time Kansas won another national championship. Bill Selson, then 1626 01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:33,559 Speaker 7: we're shooting money cannons off. So I don't know if 1627 01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:36,080 Speaker 7: Jim Harbaugh is necessarily going to be driven from this 1628 01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:39,680 Speaker 7: with pitchforks and flaming torches the way that people think 1629 01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:42,360 Speaker 7: in the immediacy. Right now, he's got the Michigan war 1630 01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:44,760 Speaker 7: machine up and running. They've made the CFP the last 1631 01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:46,800 Speaker 7: three years, and so I think for a guy who's 1632 01:13:46,840 --> 01:13:49,160 Speaker 7: having this kind of success at his alma mater, yeah, 1633 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:51,120 Speaker 7: he's competitive enough to want to go back to the 1634 01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:53,720 Speaker 7: pros eventually. I do believe that, But I don't know 1635 01:13:53,760 --> 01:13:55,680 Speaker 7: if that's going to be right here, right now in 1636 01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:57,120 Speaker 7: the immediate aftermath of this. 1637 01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:01,799 Speaker 3: Sure, So, another big name in college football, Caleb Williams. 1638 01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:04,800 Speaker 3: He still has not declared for the NFL Draft, But 1639 01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:06,720 Speaker 3: do you think if he does, he is still going 1640 01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:07,960 Speaker 3: to be the number one pick. 1641 01:14:09,360 --> 01:14:11,120 Speaker 7: I think it's going to be a real debate between 1642 01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:14,439 Speaker 7: him and Drake May from North Carolin mat I've said 1643 01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:17,240 Speaker 7: that for a while now. Caleb Williams had the Heisman 1644 01:14:17,280 --> 01:14:20,439 Speaker 7: Trophy on his ledger was a quarterback for USC during 1645 01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:23,200 Speaker 7: a revival of that program going back to last year. 1646 01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:26,759 Speaker 7: Obviously some struggles this year, but still an incredible quarterback. 1647 01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:29,960 Speaker 7: But I always thought because Drake may won a little 1648 01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:32,960 Speaker 7: bit more physically imposing a little bigger, faster, stronger than 1649 01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:36,839 Speaker 7: Caleb Williams, and because he was I think just as productive. 1650 01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:38,840 Speaker 7: His game is very similar in a lot of ways. 1651 01:14:39,120 --> 01:14:41,479 Speaker 7: We just didn't really pay any attention to North Carolina 1652 01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:43,720 Speaker 7: even last year when they were better than they were 1653 01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:46,880 Speaker 7: this season. But as far as quality of prospects, I 1654 01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:48,720 Speaker 7: think he was always going to be in this conversation, 1655 01:14:48,840 --> 01:14:50,960 Speaker 7: and it's going to be a really interesting debate once 1656 01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:52,240 Speaker 7: we all turn an eye towards. 1657 01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:54,800 Speaker 4: Draft season, right and see where he ends up. 1658 01:14:54,920 --> 01:14:57,360 Speaker 2: Who has an ever one peg? There's so much that 1659 01:14:57,439 --> 01:14:59,880 Speaker 2: can happen. Mike, you were awesome. Thank you so much 1660 01:15:00,040 --> 01:15:02,679 Speaker 2: for joining us.

Dominic love it 1673 01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:31,519 Speaker 18: put the catch in the score. 1674 01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:35,800 Speaker 3: It has been all Georgia against Florida State. You just 1675 01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:39,680 Speaker 3: heard Scott Howard from Learfield. It's halftime and the Bulldogs 1676 01:15:39,720 --> 01:15:45,479 Speaker 3: are up forty two to three.

So it 1692 01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:32,040 Speaker 2: is time for some football game pigs. We're mixing it 1693 01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:34,120 Speaker 2: up a bit this week. We're gonna have two NFL 1694 01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:36,280 Speaker 2: and then obviously the college football playoffs. 1695 01:16:36,280 --> 01:16:39,599 Speaker 4: Why not, Producer Brandon, it's your last time leading us through. 1696 01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:40,599 Speaker 5: Where are we at right now? 1697 01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:41,240 Speaker 12: All right? 1698 01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:44,680 Speaker 16: We are going to well. Last week, Alex, you got 1699 01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:47,960 Speaker 16: the win, you got three and one, and Moncey you 1700 01:16:48,040 --> 01:16:48,800 Speaker 16: want one and three? 1701 01:16:48,960 --> 01:16:50,280 Speaker 4: Yes, not help me? 1702 01:16:50,400 --> 01:16:50,760 Speaker 15: Last week? 1703 01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:51,519 Speaker 4: I didn't help me. 1704 01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:52,599 Speaker 1: It did. 1705 01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:56,040 Speaker 15: Alex is back up to thirty three and nineteen, Monsey 1706 01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:57,320 Speaker 15: thirty nine and twenty one. 1707 01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:01,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, good watch out? Yeah no, you got me 1708 01:17:01,880 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 4: last week for sure? Coming yeah, coming, all right. 1709 01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 15: This week, we've got the Miami Dolphins going to the 1710 01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:12,320 Speaker 15: Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are favored by three and a 1711 01:17:12,360 --> 01:17:14,160 Speaker 15: half in this game. Alex will start with you. 1712 01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:18,840 Speaker 2: Both these teams are coming off big wins, right, Dolphins 1713 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:21,400 Speaker 2: beat the Cowboys, Ravens beat the forty nine ers. 1714 01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:23,559 Speaker 5: Lamar's leading the MVP race. 1715 01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:25,680 Speaker 4: And you know what I. 1716 01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:30,880 Speaker 2: After last week? If it wasn't for last weekend, I 1717 01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:33,120 Speaker 2: probably would have gone Miami. But after what I saw 1718 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:37,400 Speaker 2: with Lamar and the Ravens right now, it's hard. It's 1719 01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:42,080 Speaker 2: hard not to pick them. They're having fun, they look good. 1720 01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:43,759 Speaker 4: I'm going with the Ravens. 1721 01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:47,639 Speaker 3: I actually am also going with the Ravens. I don't 1722 01:17:47,800 --> 01:17:51,320 Speaker 3: like that Tyreek Hill is still questionable. Jalen Ramsey is 1723 01:17:51,439 --> 01:17:57,120 Speaker 3: questionable for Miami. Obviously, the Ravens played Monday, so you know, 1724 01:17:57,200 --> 01:17:59,560 Speaker 3: Miami has a little bit more of a break. I 1725 01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:01,439 Speaker 3: guess you can and say the weather's gonna be nice 1726 01:18:01,439 --> 01:18:02,040 Speaker 3: in Baltimore. 1727 01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:04,000 Speaker 4: I'm taking the Ravens. 1728 01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:06,400 Speaker 2: I am taking the Ravens, all right, same, same, yeah, 1729 01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:09,160 Speaker 2: all right, moving on, we have the game tonight, the 1730 01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 2: Detroit Lions traveling to the Cowboys, who are undefeated at home. 1731 01:18:14,320 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 15: Uh if Cowboys favored by four and a half in 1732 01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:18,160 Speaker 15: this one, Monsie will start with you. 1733 01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:22,640 Speaker 4: Know, both of them would like to win, obviously, but 1734 01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:23,960 Speaker 4: you think no. 1735 01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:26,320 Speaker 3: But I'm to say, like, like the why you play 1736 01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:28,200 Speaker 3: the game. Rather, I'm saying, like the Lions don't. The 1737 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:30,439 Speaker 3: Lion's already clinched the division. They're you know what I'm saying. 1738 01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:32,960 Speaker 3: I think It's gonna be a close game, but I'm 1739 01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:35,679 Speaker 3: taking the Cowboys in this one. 1740 01:18:35,840 --> 01:18:38,799 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I mean I am also taking the Cowboys. 1741 01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 2: The Cowboys are great at home, They've lost back to 1742 01:18:41,320 --> 01:18:44,080 Speaker 2: back on the road. They need a bounce back game. 1743 01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:47,800 Speaker 2: Plus they need this win more than the Lions. The 1744 01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:50,320 Speaker 2: Lions clinched their division. The Cowboys are still fighting for 1745 01:18:50,400 --> 01:18:53,080 Speaker 2: the NFC East with the Eagles, so I think the 1746 01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 2: Cowboys need it. 1747 01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:55,120 Speaker 5: May say, what's up? 1748 01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:56,280 Speaker 15: What's up? 1749 01:18:56,520 --> 01:18:58,760 Speaker 4: We got this one all right? 1750 01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:01,280 Speaker 16: As Alex stated at the start of the segment, We're 1751 01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:03,000 Speaker 16: gonna switch it up a little bit. Let's pick these 1752 01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:06,120 Speaker 16: college football playoff games. First, we got the Rose Bowl 1753 01:19:06,560 --> 01:19:09,960 Speaker 16: to the Alabama at Michigan. Michigan favored by one and 1754 01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:11,559 Speaker 16: a half. Alex, who you got? 1755 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:13,880 Speaker 4: This is so tough. 1756 01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:16,800 Speaker 5: It is like both of these programs like. 1757 01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:21,920 Speaker 2: Not very liked by anybody in the football community, but 1758 01:19:22,960 --> 01:19:25,320 Speaker 2: Michigan just feels like they've been on some sort of 1759 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:28,439 Speaker 2: a magical run this season with all the odds against them, 1760 01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:29,440 Speaker 2: all the adversity. 1761 01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:31,759 Speaker 4: I'm rolling with Harbaugh and Michigan. 1762 01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:36,440 Speaker 3: I am also rolling with Michigan, but I'm not comfortable 1763 01:19:36,479 --> 01:19:37,320 Speaker 3: with my decision. 1764 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:42,880 Speaker 4: I'm not that seems like the logical answer, but I'm 1765 01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:45,880 Speaker 4: not comfortable. Guys, I'm not comfortable. I don't like it, 1766 01:19:46,040 --> 01:19:47,559 Speaker 4: but I'm wasn't taking the Wold raids. 1767 01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:51,599 Speaker 15: All right, Let's go to the Sugar Bowl now, where 1768 01:19:51,640 --> 01:19:54,080 Speaker 15: we have Texas favored by four and a half taking 1769 01:19:54,160 --> 01:19:58,040 Speaker 15: on Washington. Alex Ormazi, you got this one first. 1770 01:19:58,120 --> 01:19:59,880 Speaker 3: I mean I kind of hinted who I was already 1771 01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:03,000 Speaker 3: leaning towards when we spoke to Mike a little bit ago. 1772 01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:05,639 Speaker 4: I'm gonna take Washington with the upset. 1773 01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:08,479 Speaker 5: This is the first one we disagree with. 1774 01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:11,000 Speaker 2: I was like, we can't go same Ze's through the 1775 01:20:11,080 --> 01:20:14,479 Speaker 2: whole thing. This was actually really tough. I had to 1776 01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:16,639 Speaker 2: sleep on this one last night. I made my decision 1777 01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:19,519 Speaker 2: this morning. I mean, both would be a beautiful story. 1778 01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:22,760 Speaker 2: They're both leaving their divisions. You know, Texas is heading 1779 01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:25,160 Speaker 2: to the SEC next season. Last game in the Big Twelve, 1780 01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:28,040 Speaker 2: they beat Alabama this year. This would be a big 1781 01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:30,200 Speaker 2: game to prove that they can hang with the biggest 1782 01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:31,839 Speaker 2: names in college football. 1783 01:20:32,760 --> 01:20:35,280 Speaker 4: So I'm taking Texas. This is gonna be great. 1784 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:38,080 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for spending your Saturday afternoon with us. 1785 01:20:38,240 --> 01:20:40,960 Speaker 2: Have a fun and safe New Year's Eve. We will 1786 01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,599 Speaker 2: see you next week, same time, same place. 1787 01:20:43,720 --> 01:20:45,360 Speaker 4: That's right, Happy New Year.
