A few weeks ago they decided we 173 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 1: are going to be ground and pound. We are changing 174 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: our offensive identity. And guess what, it's worked, right eight 175 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: chan and right, even Ali Gordon when he doesn't fumble 176 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: to an extent, they go out and they just sledgehammer 177 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: teams now running the football. This is a this is 178 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: a Miami Dolphin team that here we are at the 179 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: end of the season is trying to run the football 180 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: and a and be a ball control team to win 181 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: games and stay in it. Which is awesome, right, because 182 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: that's that's clearly been working for them. With Tua being 183 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: a game manager. You don't need to throw the ball deep. 184 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: You know, he's still finding Jalen Waddle, right, still got 185 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: a couple of big weapons there. Offensively, Dulsit has come 186 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: in at tight end. Right, You got Waller back, so 187 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: you can still do some things. But now you've changed 188 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: your identity, you're winning football games. It's incredibly impressive. The 189 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: Eagles have to do the same thing they've been going 190 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: through most of the season. Okay, Saquan's not the same 191 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: guy start of the year because of the carries from 192 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: last year. 193 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: We talk about it a lot. 194 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: He's not gonna have a great season, but they've tried 195 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: to put forward is so many different ways. Being Jalen 196 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: Hurts driven, right, We're gonna Hurts is gonna be the guy. 197 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: He's gonna build on this last couple of seasons. He's 198 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: now our best player offensively, and it just isn't working. 199 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: One week, I'll have a big week, the other week 200 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: they won't be able to throw the football at all. 201 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: One week they look like world beaters or defense plays great. 202 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: The other week what is happening and Hurts is turning 203 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: the ball over. You're not gonna get any more out 204 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: of Hurtz and Goddard, n aj Brown, DeVante Smith. 205 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 2: It's not I'm sorry. 206 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: The way forward for the Eagles now is to be 207 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley intensive, and you've he hasn't had to carry 208 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: so far this year. He hasn't had the same wear 209 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: and tears a year ago. 210 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 2: This is now. 211 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: Okay, it's December, Saquon. Now, they have to change and 212 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: become a Saquon first team kind of like they were 213 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: last year, except maybe more so because their passing game 214 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: is even even more haphazard than it was last year. 215 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: And if they can make that change, if they can 216 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: stay on the ground and win this football game and 217 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: gain some confidence and they change their identity over the 218 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: course of the last month, then I'll be back buying 219 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 1: in on the Eagles. But they need to do it 220 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: because you can't keep going through Week thirteen, fourteen fifteen Seingle. 221 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 2: Oh, well, this week, it'll work. This week. 222 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: AJ Brown and Jalen Hurts like each other. This week 223 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: they like Jalen Hurts. They did their best work last 224 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: year when Barkley was the forefront, and he covered a 225 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: lot of problems last year. 226 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 2: Right, they still had these issues last year. 227 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: Remember AJ Brown reading on the sideline, And now you 228 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: get reports this year of hey, Jalen Hurts is ad 229 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: libbing on plays. Barkley covered a lot of their ills 230 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 1: last year. When you have a guy running for two 231 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: thousand yards, is going to happen to do that. Now 232 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: you're at the point where, Okay, it's been the first 233 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: two and a half three months of the season. 234 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:35,599 Speaker 2: It's not working with this. 235 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: So now Saquon, we're loading you up for the rest 236 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 1: of this and we are going to be Saquon Barkley driven. 237 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: If the Eagles do that, I'll be backing on the Eagles. 238 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 4: I have to wonder if to some degree we talked 239 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 4: about this and look at the workloads for different running backs, 240 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 4: go back last year kind of the workload that you 241 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 4: had in Detroit and then Jamier Gibbs the second half 242 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 4: of the season was a monster for Barkley. How much 243 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 4: of this year is also just your You're kind of 244 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 4: trying to get by without killing him early, knowing that 245 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 4: you're gonna need him late as the weather changes, and 246 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 4: as you're playing for the playoffs. You're trying to grind 247 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 4: games out men. Even tonight, right first half, time of 248 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 4: possession was two to one, right nearly twenty minutes of possession, 249 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 4: even though Hurts was ten of nineteen, had nineteen attempts 250 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 4: in the first half, a couple of interceptions, had a fumble. 251 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 4: Not often you get a guy with an interception and 252 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 4: to fumble on the same play. But Barkley already with 253 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 4: thirteen carries sixty nine yards. So yeah, going to that identity, 254 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 4: even though he's down two yards per carry from last 255 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 4: year and You've had a lot of guys in and 256 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 4: out of the offensive line, other injuries later as this 257 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 4: game went on as well, So you're trying to navigate 258 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 4: that as you go hurts putting the ball downfield, averaging 259 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 4: like nine intended air yards per attempt for the year. 260 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 4: But to try to get back to balance, because you're 261 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 4: good enough to grind things out. Now how much the 262 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 4: Jalen Carter injury and surgeries come back to bite You 263 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 4: been watching this game, and not that the Chargers have 264 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 4: had the ball a ton but why are you not 265 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 4: just running the ball immediately? 266 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 2: You got a guy that playing. 267 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 4: With a broken hand and been a couple of circumstances 268 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 4: for Herbert, it's looked all. 269 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 1: Terrible and he's gone looked good for any of them tonight. 270 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: This game is not this name has not been good. 271 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,599 Speaker 2: For anyone at know. 272 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 4: But just from the aesthetics of all right, he can't 273 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 4: do this, he can't do that, and uh, when he's 274 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 4: taken off to run a couple of times like just 275 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 4: get down or get out, run straight out of bounds, 276 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 4: whatever the case is, don't take another hit on that hand. 277 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 4: But for the Eagles at eight and four years you're 278 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 4: still controlling a pretty good chunk here in your NFC 279 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 4: with the chaos that that has been wrought across the NFL. 280 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 4: So yeah, get back to Saquon Barkley and see if 281 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 4: you can't rediscover some of that magic and bully ball 282 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 4: that made you so successful a year ago. 283 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 5: Yeah. 284 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: I Meanwhile, for the Chargers, I kind of feel like 285 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: they're still figuring out their identity too. As good as 286 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: they all look, both teams eight and four, both teams 287 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 1: have big time hopes and dreams this postseason. The Chargers 288 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: went from all right early on Harbaugh's gonna build the team, 289 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: continue to build how he wants to with a couple 290 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: of really good running backs and Justin Herbert running things. 291 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: Gonna be a full service offense. Right last year he 292 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: tried it, you can't do it with two running backs 293 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: that have been hurt all year. For the Ravens, I 294 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: don't care what kind of bill of goods your brother sold. 295 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you'll be fine with these guys. You know they're 296 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 2: gonna we're bringing them in our training room. 297 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 4: Oh wait, your training room's also had a lot of 298 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 4: problems through the years, well chronicled on this show. 299 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 1: So they thought coming in they're gonna be able to 300 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: run the football, Naji Harris and Murray and Hampton, and 301 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: it'll be a better version of what they were a 302 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: year ago. Then Harris gets hurt, Hampton gets hurt, Harbaugh realizes, Okay, 303 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: Herbert's our best player. They start throwing the football a 304 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: ton across the field. Everything is going well, but then 305 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: the offensive line breaks down and Herbert's under fire the 306 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: entire time. 307 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 6: Again. 308 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: Joe Alt probably the real NFL MVP, because right when 309 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: things were looking great for them, he got hurt. And 310 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: the Chargers it's been a big struggle. Not that they're 311 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: not good, it's been a struggle to get to eight 312 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: and four and here's where they are. So now, who 313 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: are they? Can they run the football? Are they a 314 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: team that's gonna throw? I still feel like the Chargers 315 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: looking for their identity. Are they justin Herbert driven? Are 316 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: they gonna be running back driven? 317 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 7: Now? 318 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: Mari and Hampton is back and they found Kamani Vidal 319 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: who may be the next version of Austin Eckler. Very 320 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: similar stories how they've come around and dented the NFL. 321 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: So these are both teams that are still kind of 322 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: searching for their identities. But the Chargers, it's like, Okay, 323 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: you gotta with four games left, are you gonna run 324 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: the football? You're gonna throw? What are you gonna be? 325 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: And I still feel like they don't know who they are. 326 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 4: Twenty gary seventy six yards between them tonight, including three 327 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 4: scrambles from Justin Herbert for twenty five yards. Hampton's shown 328 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 4: some pretty good burst. Again, this is an Eagles team. 329 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,439 Speaker 4: When we saw them last they were getting run over 330 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 4: by the Bears, So the opportunity is there with Carter 331 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 4: out to perhaps makes them ay, but trying to get 332 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,559 Speaker 4: the wide receivers involved. Over the course of this one, 333 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 4: just eight completions look clearly Herbert's effect did a lot 334 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 4: of questions as to whether you'd see Trey Lance tonight 335 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 4: or maybe they can beat some other team and bring 336 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 4: a veteran like Philip Rivers back in. No, we'll get 337 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 4: to that as the jo go design. But you know 338 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 4: you're looking at dump offs to the running backs have 339 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 4: been the primary responsibility here. You've seen a couple of 340 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 4: short passes to Johnston and Gadston, but really not much 341 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 4: downfield getting the ball out of his hands, trying to 342 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 4: live to see another down right now for Justin. 343 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: Herbert exit out about a Fresca exit swalling down the 344 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon.

In fact, he has done so, so 349 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: it's a touchdown lead again for the Chargers. The happiest 350 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 1: people in the world, those who have the under Yeah. No, absolutely, yeah, 351 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: there's no question about. We'll see if there's anything in 352 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: the final minutes that can create chaos like in other games. 353 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 2: Carol P. Carroll coaching this game. 354 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 4: See, I've got like ten minutes on why that was 355 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 4: the right move. And people can be mad about it 356 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 4: all they want. Remember, Jake Elliott, we watched it on 357 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 4: the Monsters broadcast. Missed a field goal before just before 358 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 4: the half, so that looms.

Forty four years old. Jay, This isn't real, 422 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: is it? 423 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 5: Do We don't have many kids today? Have they had 424 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 5: more kids? To see? Last busy public spirit? 425 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 2: Well, I know he's got a grand kid now, yeah, 426 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 2: I mean. 427 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 5: I think he was up to like ten or eleven kids. 428 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of time. 429 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the cults are cooked no matter what 430 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 5: happens here. We talked about him quite a bit this 431 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 5: week on one of that because you can get plus 432 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 5: two forty on them to miss the playoffs and that 433 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 5: wasn't going to be around for much longer. You know. 434 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 5: It's uh, it's really unraveled. I mean they had the 435 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 5: inside shot at the one seed and had the best 436 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 5: record in the AFC. A few weeks back. I think 437 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 5: that game in Pittsburgh really kind of started to unmask them. 438 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 5: And they still moved the ball, but they turned it over. 439 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 5: They kind of they screwed that game up. They had 440 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 5: that terrible muff punt. The offensive line started to whelped 441 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 5: a little bit. Daniel Jones started to look like Daniel Jones. 442 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 5: The injuries obviously mounted for him. The Sauft Gardner trade 443 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 5: was an overpay to begin with, and now with him 444 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 5: being hurt, that really looks tough. And Daniel Jones is 445 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 5: going to be compromised through the offseason. And let's face it, 446 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 5: when you trade two ones for Sauft Carter, you're doing 447 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 5: that because you don't think you need a quarterback. You're 448 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 5: doing it because you think you've got book. And now 449 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 5: you know they're trying to sign pill of rivers off 450 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:58,719 Speaker 5: the street, like yeah. And the real problem for them 451 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 5: is the division actually pretty good for the first time 452 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 5: in forever, So I don't think it's gonna matter to it. 453 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 5: You can really trace it all back to the Richardson 454 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 5: situation and not being able to develop him and the 455 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 5: injuries and the lost opportunity and the lost developmental time 456 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 5: and now that whole organization. It's just crazy. A month 457 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 5: ago to now, it just feels like it's not just 458 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 5: a couple of like you know, losses on a on 459 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 5: a football field. It feels like their direction was a 460 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 5: little bit to me now, well. 461 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 4: You know me, the longer we can get these guys 462 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 4: in their forties to hang around, I don't feel so 463 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 4: old my own self. 464 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 2: Jason, there you go. 465 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 4: How about there more talk of where Lamar is physically 466 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 4: or hating on officials today? 467 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 5: There's plenty of time and energy for all the above. 468 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 5: You know, with Lamar, it's the physical stuff, but it's 469 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 5: now mental. I mean, he's been visibly frustrated. He's been 470 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 5: clearly plumbaged and confused and pissed, and he's got a 471 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 5: bad offensive line in front of him, and I think 472 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 5: he's starting to crack a little bit. And he's attacking 473 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 5: some guys verbally on the sidelines and I don't blame 474 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 5: him for that, but it's not a good sign. And 475 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 5: they need people to make plays for him, and it's 476 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 5: it's not really happening, and the running backs starting to 477 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 5: look his age a little bit. Nobody makes plays in 478 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 5: the passing game except for Jake Flowers, and Jake Flowers 479 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 5: is a little guy and he doesn't score touchdowns. There's 480 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 5: a lot. There's a lot to unpack right now. It's 481 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 5: a bad offensive line, it's a bad defensive line. And 482 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 5: it's going to be a really interesting offseason around here, 483 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 5: whether they make changes in the front office, whether they 484 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 5: make changes in the coaching staff. I personally don't think 485 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 5: this under is going to do it, but we'll see. 486 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 5: I mean, the left tackle probably nearing the end. The 487 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,959 Speaker 5: center is a free agent. They re upped Derrick Henry, 488 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 5: but I mean Chiefs I don't know. They've got to 489 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 5: redo Lamar's deal again because he's got an eighty million 490 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 5: dollar cap hit, so they have to get that done. 491 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 5: He might hold their feet to the fire there. They 492 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:14,479 Speaker 5: don't have any pass rushers they I don't think non 493 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 5: Be not a b K I was gonna play on 494 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 5: the stat in the NFL. So the best player on 495 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 5: defense is probably done. There's there's a lot a lot 496 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 5: going on here. 497 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: Well, you get to the likely touchdown that got overturned. 498 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: That's been a big topic of conversation. 499 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 5: Start foot down. Look, I mean, I'm fifty two years old. 500 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 5: That was I mean, where has that been all my life? Yeah? 501 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 2: I know, you gotta get that. 502 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,719 Speaker 4: Oh three feet down? Okay, hey toe tamp on the sideline, 503 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 4: but across the middle. 504 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: Hey, I mean I don't I don't understand Jay any 505 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: of that call and not allowing that touchdown. That When 506 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: I see plays like that, I go wow, I look 507 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: back and I go Sometimes the NFL just decides we're 508 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 1: gonna really look at this and see if we can 509 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: do everything we can to change this call. 510 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 2: And sometimes they don't. 511 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 5: And this is one of the. 512 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: They did everything they could to change that call that 513 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: clearly was a touchdown. 514 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 5: Big Brother jumps in and gets caught up in the 515 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 5: weeds in the minutia. In one game and another game, 516 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 5: they're willing to let head to head collisions on a 517 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 5: quarterback go. They're willing to let guys being dragged into 518 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 5: the end zone BYO by four people not push them behind, 519 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 5: but pulled across the line like they're letting things. They 520 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 5: get called out in real time by announcers and refereeing experts. 521 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 5: Refereeing experts to the league, by the way, was too 522 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 5: cheap to keep. That's why they all last, because they 523 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,120 Speaker 5: could make more money talking about it on TV than 524 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,479 Speaker 5: he could actually overseeing it for the NFL. That's all 525 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 5: cheap the billionaires. Yeah, we find ourselves in predicaments like this, 526 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 5: I mean two feet down in a football move, and 527 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 5: like I had no money on likely to catch a touchdown, 528 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 5: Like it didn't affect my pocketbook, and it didn't affect 529 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 5: any fandom. But like he's got two feet out almost 530 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 5: a third foot and he takes the ball and extends 531 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 5: it away from the defender. If that's not a football move, 532 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 5: what the hell the football move? 533 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 2: Fair boy? 534 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 4: Jason locking for our guest Washington Bows one five seven 535 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 4: the fan wanna bet with us dot com? 536 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: Uh? 537 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 4: Where you find about Jason Lockin for on X for 538 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 4: all of that in the above and his missives on 539 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 4: the NFL as we roll forward. So but stay in 540 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 4: the AFC North Shadora Sanders now the King of Yak 541 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 4: and he's got the job for the rest of the year. 542 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 5: I mean he's he's held up pretty well with a 543 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 5: team that's pizzle and collapsed, playing for a coach who 544 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 5: clearly never wanted anything to do with him. Yeah, I mean, 545 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 5: I don't think there's really any other choice. Like what 546 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 5: you can go back to Dylan Gabriel and then this guy, 547 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 5: actually Jerry Judy actually plays football again. You know, both 548 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 5: tight ends. I know, wh Djuco Joko got hurt again 549 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 5: in this game, but like both tight ends actually played 550 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 5: football again, Like they actually run rounds where they have 551 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 5: a chance of the ball hitting them in the hands 552 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 5: more than four feet down field. Like it's it's I mean, 553 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 5: shameful what they did. It really is it's ridiculous that 554 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,479 Speaker 5: they wasted half this kid's rookie year so that they 555 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 5: could look at Flacco for three or four weeks and 556 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 5: then look at you know, waste six weeks with going 557 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 5: Gabriel pretending that he's an NFL quarterback er has a 558 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 5: chance of being an NFL quarterback. Like it's really, it's 559 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 5: really kind of ridiculous because we should know more about 560 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 5: shud Door Sanders. They should know more about Shandor Sanders. 561 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 5: You know, you draft him where you draft him, and 562 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 5: maybe you don't want to play him at first, like okay, 563 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 5: but but when you're trading Flacco and then you're going 564 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 5: to Gabriel, it's just it's it's ridiculous, but whatever, Uh, 565 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 5: I don't know, guys, like uh, I don't know if 566 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 5: the Fanski will still be there. I don't know. I'm 567 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 5: sure Sanders will be there, but like, I don't know 568 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 5: if he's gonna be competing with a veteran. I don't 569 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 5: know if they're going to use the high draft they 570 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 5: want to on a quarterback again, Like, is Andrew Bury 571 00:25:55,800 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 5: definitely there or was the Podesta's departure sign of other 572 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 5: moves to Comba. Don't know the answer to all those questions, 573 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 5: but he's definitely the best quarterback on their roster and 574 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 5: an even close. 575 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: All right, Jay, how about this? We watched the Chiefs 576 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: lose last night. The Texans keep rolling their defense playing 577 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: at such a high level. Are the Chiefs cooked for 578 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: this season? Can they still find their way back? 579 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 2: Where are you on this? 580 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,679 Speaker 5: I mean they're cooked to the Super Bowl contender like 581 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 5: they you know, I don't know, to just fall off 582 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 5: a cliff and you know, this game tonight is obviously 583 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 5: shoote for them and the Chargers hold on here or not. 584 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 5: I mean, that's that's kind of everything for for these guys. 585 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 5: Obviously they've got some head to head to head long 586 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 5: instacts head to head lost in suson. So that's gonna 587 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 5: be real tough at the time with those guys and 588 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 5: any sort of wild card, uh situation. I mean, they're 589 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 5: they're horribly flawed football team. They're there age and they're 590 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 5: their agents spots and just there the lack of ability 591 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 5: in others. It's it's kind of shocking, how what we're 592 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 5: not that far removed from them winning seventeen straight one 593 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 5: score games, you know, and now they get in a 594 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 5: close and late situation and you just kind of wait 595 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 5: for them to melt down there, you know, something to 596 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 5: go wrong and guy to drop the ball and kind 597 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 5: to knock the ball off his hands to the other team, 598 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,199 Speaker 5: tip her to miss one. It's just they find a 599 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 5: myriad of ways to lose now, which is the antithesis 600 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 5: of what they've been. 601 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's always been the one score game going the 602 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 4: other way back into the playoffs. So now we got 603 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 4: a live Miami Dolphins after they take down the Jets. 604 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, look, I think they're keeping keeping your coach 605 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 5: and your quarterbacks employed down there, which if you're a 606 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 5: Dolphins fan, should probably make you sick. But I think 607 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,479 Speaker 5: you're going to run it back with these guys, I 608 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 5: really do. Yeah, And I think they'll probably be pretty 609 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 5: bad by Thanksgiving again next year, and then the owner 610 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 5: is going to be deep enough down the road where 611 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 5: he'll be paying two or sixty million one more time 612 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 5: and everybody will be gone by this time next year. 613 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 5: But yeah, they're winning games. And look, they've allowed seventeen 614 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 5: or fewer, I think, in for their last five games. 615 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 5: Anthony Weaver's doing a really nice job with the defense, 616 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 5: even after they trained Jalen Phillips, and they're running the 617 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 5: hell out of football, you know, And that's that's really 618 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 5: what it is. I mean, too is not doing anything special. 619 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 5: He has hitting the occasional deep shot the wattle, which 620 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 5: is more than he did in the pass. But it's 621 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 5: it's really kind of old school, and it's it's been 622 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 5: really effective the last four or five weeks. And look, 623 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 5: could they going to Pittsburgh and beat them Monday night? 624 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 5: I certainly think they could because they can run the 625 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 5: ball and that's been obviously a problem for Pittsburgh, and hell, 626 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 5: it's been a problem for Pittsburgh against teams in that division. 627 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 5: So no, I don't I don't think they're particularly close 628 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 5: to being a true contender. But I don't think many 629 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 5: people would want to come into that situation as a 630 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 5: head coach and have to inherit to and inherit all 631 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 5: of that. And you know he's McDaniel's guy. So I 632 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 5: think the book coming back honesty. 633 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: Washington Post one oh five seven The fan in Baltimore 634 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: want to bet with us dot com Jason lockinfora Jay 635 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: as always, Buddy, appreciate it. 636 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: Man, have a great week. We'll talk to you. 637 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 5: You guys are the same. 638 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 2: Thank you, Jason telling me Man. 639 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: The Dolphins they change it. It's a bold thing to 640 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: do in the middle of the season, but they changed 641 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: their identical look. They came out yesterday in the first 642 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: fifteen plays, Like, I think Syracuse had a stronger start 643 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: against Notre Dame than the Jets had against the Dolphins. 644 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,239 Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't matter who was running the ball 645 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: for the Dolphins. Could have been eight Chen, it could 646 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: have been Reggie Bush, could have been Larry Zanka. Like 647 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: they were just sledgehammering away current Dave, Larry Yes, current 648 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: day Larry Zanka, just you know, just to give them 649 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: the ball. Oh, all kinds of room, like a lot 650 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: of aura there. I mean, there's there's a they were 651 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 1: blowing open hole. Like when they had the ball inside 652 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: the five yard line, they were blowing open holes in 653 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: the Jets to fend, there's more room for them to 654 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: run on the goal line. 655 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 2: I'm going, how is this happening? 656 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: So a lot of it is the Jets, but I 657 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: give the Dolphins credit because it's a gutsy thing to say, 658 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: all right, how are we gonna win? We're one and six, 659 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,959 Speaker 1: We're gonna become a ball control team, We're gonna run. 660 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 1: We got two good running backs, got another guy we 661 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 1: drafted who was a rookie that we really like, Hey, 662 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: this is gonna be how we're gonna do it. And 663 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: two is gonna be a game manager. And all of 664 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: a sudden, bang, Dolphins are six and seven and they're 665 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: on the periphery of the playoffs. Oh he's basically the 666 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: junior moon ball of Russell Wilson. Right, He's not a 667 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: guy that drives the ball in. So it all becomes 668 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: about timing.
