1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 2: No, let's go, stinking genius, Let's go, baby boy, let's go,

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 2: let's go. I wanted to start before we dove into

4
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 2: I'd be Todd Bowles last game as the Tampa Bay

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,759
Speaker 2: Buccaneers coach. We're tied up at thirty with less than

6
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 2: a minute ago. Our thoughts are with our friends in

7
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 2: the LA area. Obviously, we were talking with Patrick Sweek,

8
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 2: our producer Mary Mack, who is back after her overseas vacation,

9
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: and you're gonna hear from the Great Steve to Sega

10
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 2: throughout the evening. But just Arnie, I I saw the

11
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 2: pictures that our buddy Jeff Schwartz had tweeted from Palisades

12
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 2: High I know, yeah, that's where you went to high school.

13
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 2: Just devastating and really, it sometimes sounds hollow when you

14
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 2: say you're in our thoughts unless you can do anything.

15
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: So hopefully over the next few hours we can serve

16
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 2: as that distraction. We can bring you some fun. We're

17
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 2: going to talk some football, but our thoughts, our prayers,

18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 2: our hearts are with those who have been affected by

19
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 2: these wildfires that hit really close to home. For our

20
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: entire Fox Sports Radio Family.

21
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, Chris, I tell you it was tough

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 3: because at first you started hearing about the high school

23
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 3: was totally engulfed in flames, and then that didn't turn

24
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 3: out to be the case, which is good. And then

25
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 3: I saw some video that one of the reporters, one

26
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 3: of the kids got onto the campus and took some pictures,

27
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 3: and you know, it was very promising. But what has

28
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 3: happened in the Palisades. And my parents had a house

29
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 3: in Brentwood when we grew up, and it is just horrible.

30
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,839
Speaker 3: I mean, all those homes up in the hills, it's

31
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 3: just countless homes after homes, and it's just it just

32
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 3: hits home, it really does. And I feel bad. I

33
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 3: was on Facebook and I saw a lot of my

34
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 3: old classmates on there, a lot of people that went

35
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 3: to Pali, a lot of people in Brentwood, and I

36
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 3: just feel for them, and you're right, I just feel

37
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 3: you know, our thoughts and prayers is really not enough,

38
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 3: and this is going to be a long time before

39
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 3: they are able to rebuild what's going on up there.

40
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 3: So it's tough. I'm all the way out here in

41
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 3: Vermont and they're fighting the battle out there on the

42
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 3: palis as in Brentwood and as well as Alta Dina

43
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: and other places in Los Angeles. But we do think

44
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 3: of them, There's no doubt about that.

45
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: So I just wanted to make sure that everybody was

46
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 2: aware where our hearts are and our minds are today.

47
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 2: So sometimes if we see them a little bit scattered,

48
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: that's why. But we are definitely focused on the playoffs

49
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: as we come to you live from the ti rack

54
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 2: gonna win this game? Huh?

55
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 3: How about this? I well, if they make the field goal,

56
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 3: right I ever, what first and ten tied to twenty?

57
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: Yeah?

58
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah. Secondly, you never know what's going to happen

59
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 3: in the field goal attempt, so you can't make it automatic.

60
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 3: It could be a bad snap or anything. But it

61
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 3: looks like right now a high percentage. What is the

62
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 3: win percentage? I know?

63
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 2: Actually, look hold on, I hate when just for those

64
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 2: that haven't been with the show, too terribly away I

65
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: despise win percentages, and there's a very reason.

66
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

67
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 2: Ohh you kidding me. They're supposed to win whenever they're

68
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: up by one with five seconds ago in the game.

69
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 2: Thanks right now, Currently, Arnie, it is eighty two point

70
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 2: five percent.

71
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 3: Wow, I thought to be like ninety seven percent.

72
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 2: Well, Austin their kicker. Remember, he's missed a few, right,

73
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 2: He missed an extra point earlier this year that allowed

74
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 2: him to stay, that actually cost him a game. He

75
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: missed an extra point and missed a field goal. Oh,

76
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 2: it's not even Cyber anymore, it's Gonzales. He was gone

77
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 2: after that. Gosh, Gonzales and Cybern look alike.

78
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 3: Holy smokes.

79
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: But so they're turning to Gonzales, where kicking has been

80
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: an issue for him a majority of the season. But

81
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 2: Zane's been perfect tonight. So we'll see Todd Bowles. Oh,

82
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 2: by the way, that's just jumped up to ninety two

83
00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 2: point eight percent.

84
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: There you go, that's get yeah, there you go.

85
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 2: Three seconds left and went from eighty four percent to

86
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 2: ninety two point eight percent with Zane Gonzalez. So I

87
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 2: don't know where I thought Cyber was still kicking form.

88
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 2: I must be drunk tonight, But here we go Washington

89
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: with a chance to win and advance in the playoffs.

90
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 2: We still we still have another game to go tomorrow night.

91
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: It's gonna be in Arizona between the Vikings and the Rams.

92
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 2: And we got Matt Verderam coming on with us in

93
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 2: the next second segment to completely break things down. Both

94
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: teams are out of timeouts. So whatever happens here is

95
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 2: gonna be ballgame. I gotta have a good snap. Your

96
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: holder is Tressway, he's your punter as well. Oh did

97
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 2: he really?

98
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 3: What?

99
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: Through?

100
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,559
Speaker 3: Off? The right? Up right?

101
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 2: And in Washington wins?

102
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 3: Can you believe it? And it looked you know what

103
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 3: I'm saying, even if it hits, it out a chance

104
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 3: to get in and that's exactly what happened.

105
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 2: We're we got a lot to get to on this

106
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 2: game time. We finally got ourselves a quote unquote buzzer

107
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: beater in the nf fell after having the previous but

108
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 2: three four playoff games pretty one side. I mean, the

109
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: Eagles and the Packers a little tighter, right, but despite

110
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 2: falling behind seven zip, the Bills absolutely just smoked the

111
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 2: Broncos today and then neither game yesterday was all that

112
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 2: entertaining Ravens beating up on the Steelers in a rock fight,

113
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 2: and then the Texans, uh just kind of pulled away

114
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: from the Chargers. Can't wait to get Sager's perspective on

115
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 2: that as the show rolls on. But a lot of

116
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 2: fingers I think are going to be pointed in Tampa

117
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 2: after this one, arn't he because it seemed as if

118
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 2: they were in really good shape, had to turnover on

119
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 2: a on a handoff, but were able to overcome that.

120
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 2: Kind of shocking to see the way things turned in

121
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 2: this football game where kind of felt like Tampa was

122
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 2: in control and Washington just never went away.

123
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 3: Are you want criticism? Yeah? No, I would have given

124
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 3: you I had Washington lost in dan Quinn going forward

125
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 3: on how many times did they turn away twice? Was it?

126
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 3: Was it twice or three?

127
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 4: Though?

128
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,239
Speaker 3: I think it was twice. I think it was twice.

129
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 3: I think it was. But in the fourth quarter, one

130
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 3: with fourteen minutes left, one with like ten or eleven

131
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 3: roughly right around that, and you're down by four. You

132
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 3: want to talk about criticisms that goodness they win, because

133
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 3: otherwise you would have heard that for years to come.

134
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 3: Good victory by them. That was unbelievable. Tampa, they moved

135
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 3: the ball. I think, you know, you feel like they

136
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 3: were always up by like double digits or something, but

137
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 3: that wasn't the case. Baker Mayfield did everything he could.

138
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,239
Speaker 3: But Washington give them credit, and give Daniel's credit. Rookie

139
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 3: quarterbacks in the first round of the playoffs are just horrible,

140
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 3: absolutely horrible. And he just crushed it. The good Chris,

141
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 3: he was fantastic.

142
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, they went for it, did Washington. Whenever they were

143
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: down seventeen to thirteen. They went for it on fourth

144
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 2: down and didn't get it right, and let's see, that

145
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: was fourth and goal from the Oh gosh, that was

146
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 2: just a terrible break. And then they went for it

147
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 2: with seven point fifty to go in the game and

148
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: uh didn't get it. So two really and one of

149
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 2: those drives carried over from the third quarter into the

150
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: fourth quarter. So a couple of really tough decisions for Washington.

151
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 2: But it it doesn't end up hurting the Marty. They

152
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: still find a way to win this football game somehow,

153
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 2: some way.

154
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 3: Well, they've turned around their fortune ever since the sale

155
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 3: of the team. It feels like that aura about them

156
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 3: is completely gone. And they're the new Washington team. They're

157
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 3: they're they're new, and they're exciting, and they've got their

158
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: franchise quarterback. And I want to see how far they're

159
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 3: gonna go.

160
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, what a mess. What a mess for Tampa.

161
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 2: I can't help, but wonder if let's see where was

162
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: the play call near the end of the game where

163
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 2: they they I don't know what they were thinking the

164
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: fumble that led the go ahead touchdown.

165
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 3: I mean, I was Baker Mayfield. They said, yeah, perhaps

166
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 3: that Baker may wanted to have faked it.

167
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 2: Right, and then the receiver kind of It's almost looked

168
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 2: like he was late getting it there.

169
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 3: It could have been that. Also, I don't think it

170
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 3: was the center's falls I know.

171
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 2: No, no, no, I mean he was trying to blame

172
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 2: the center.

173
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 3: Trico, Yeah, Tariko did at first.

174
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 2: Hey, if there is any way you can avoid blaming

175
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield for anything, I think I'm okay with that.

176
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 2: So Arnie, if you want to go with it, I'm

177
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 2: here with you. But solid, solid by Washington. So we

178
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,599
Speaker 2: got a good game. I think tomorrow is gonna be

179
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 2: a really good game too. But what of Matt Verner

180
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 2: ram as we said, is coming in right off the top,

181
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 2: coming in hot with us here in just a bit.

182
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 2: Matt had been a regular with us for the longest time.

183
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 2: Then he got big time, and I thought, all right, well,

184
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 2: let's go, let's go, let's let's let's.

185
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 3: Tag him in tonight.

186
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 2: And I also thought you had been hacked by some

187
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 2: cryptocurrency thing, but we'll talk about that later. I again,

188
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 2: you're not always gonna have good first round playoff games.

189
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 2: We've seen this year in and year out, right, But

190
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 2: I think when you get a game like tonight and

191
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 2: the excitement over tomorrow night, it kind of makes up

192
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 2: for it all.

193
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 3: And there were moments.

194
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 2: There was a moment in the Steelers game where you're

195
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 2: watching it and you thought, hey, they got a chance

196
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 2: to get back in this game. There were the moments

197
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 2: early for the Broncos where they just couldn't hang with

198
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills. And then there was this whole game

199
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 2: tonight where you wonder, did Todd Bowles make some decisions

200
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: that might have ended up costing him his job Here

201
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 2: this evening, because this is a Tampa team that feels

202
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,559
Speaker 2: really good about themselves, right, and you should feel good

203
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 2: about yourself in that division is the only thing that's

204
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 2: lacking the head coach. And I think that this is

205
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 2: the same question that is being asked in Pittsburgh right

206
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 2: now for teams that lost in the first round of

207
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 2: the playoffs, and Denver obviously just getting started with Peyton.

208
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 2: I don't think they feel that way quite yet. After

209
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 2: you know, one season with the Chargers and Hardboss since

210
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 2: he turned him around, but in two places that lost Arnie,

211
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 2: I think they're kind of looking around and thinking, boy,

212
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 2: where are we going as a franchise. And I feel

213
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 2: like the Buccaneers tonight and I feel like the Steelers

214
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 2: yesterday have a lot of questions to answer about where

215
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: they're heading and if these are the guys to get

216
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 2: them there.

217
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 3: Well, I definitely agree with John the Steelers, I'm not

218
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 3: so sure. I'm pumping the brakes a little bit on

219
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 3: top of especially yeah, especially because they've got their you know,

220
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 3: they've got their quarterback, and I think they're gonna be

221
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 3: in a pretty good shape. So I'm not too worried.

222
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 2: And you're in a division where it doesn't look like

223
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 2: anyone's gonna run away from you in it.

224
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 3: Right right exactly, So I'm okay with them Pittsburgh, though,

225
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 3: if I'm a Steelers fan, I'm beside myself. I'm like,

226
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 3: another year no playoff win? What is it like eight

227
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 3: years now since since their last Super Bowl? I think

228
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:38,359
Speaker 3: they're five and ten in the playoffs. That's just not acceptable,

229
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 3: And like I said, with the last eight years, I

230
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 3: don't think they have a playoff victory. Something's got to

231
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 3: be done. I know everybody loves Tomlin and he's a

232
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 3: great coach, but you can't fire the team so somebody else,

233
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 3: and you can't get rid of the owner, so that

234
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 3: just leaves that coach and I think maybe it's time

235
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 3: to make a change there, but that that's not going

236
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 3: to happen, I guess.

237
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: So with this win by Washington tonight, this means that

238
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: all the games next week are set.

239
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 3: Right.

240
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 2: The Lions will get Washington because they'll be the lowest

241
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 2: seeded team left, and then you'll have the Texans and

242
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. According to the schedule that was just shown

243
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 2: on NBC, that'll be the first game Saturday, Saturday game, right,

244
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 2: the Lions and the Commanders, and then the Texas and

245
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. Texans Day game. Oh okay, because they say

246
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 2: TBD Flex game. What does that mean that to saga the.

247
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 5: Game literally in the last minute or two. The NFL

248
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 5: has made it official that the first game Saturday will

249
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 5: be the Chiefs home game against the Texans, which puts

250
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 5: Fox TV getting Saturday Night Washington at Detroit. So we

251
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 5: know that regardless of who wins Tomorrow night, the Vikings

252
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 5: Rams winner will be going to Philadelphia for the first

253
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 5: game next Sunday. And by the way, that's not an

254
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 5: early that's not a one pm Eastern for the next

255
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 5: couple of weeks. We're moving to three pm Eastern for

256
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 5: Philadelphia's home game next Sunday, which means next Sunday night

257
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 5: we get the battle of the two that are going

258
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 5: for MVP. It's Lamar Jackson against Josh l and next

259
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 5: Sunday Baltimore and Buffalo.

260
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 2: Oh, I looked at that wrong. I thought for a

261
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 2: moment it might be seven thirty Eastern. That's gonna be

262
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 2: six thirty eastern. So that's right around the same start

263
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 2: time from MOS Sunday night football games.

264
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 3: Maybe even a little bit earlier. Earlier.

265
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 2: Earlier, Yeah, about thirty minutes earlier. All my stupid site

266
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 2: was looking at the ESPN site and here it is

267
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 2: eight thousand NFL reporters have tweeted it. So just to

268
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 2: reset with channels real quick. Carney Houston at Kansas City

269
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 2: the early game Saturday, and by early that's four thirty eastern.

270
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 2: That's going to be on ESPN and ABC, and then

271
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 2: the primetime Tilt the NFC Divisional Round game Commanders at

272
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 2: Lions will be at eight o'clock Eastern and that's going

273
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 2: to be on Fox. Then on Sunday NBC we'll have

274
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: the early games, which will be either the Vikings or

275
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 2: the Rams of the Eagles, and then CBS will have

276
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 2: that primetime game on Sunday night six thirty eastern. Ravens

277
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 2: at Bill's s right, Sorry about that, Arnt. You just

278
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 2: want to be Clearifox.

279
00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 3: Okay, and I know you were talking about all the

280
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 3: ball I know it's our, uh not only our job,

281
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 3: at everybody's job to complain. That's what we do. We were

282
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 3: complaining about the first round in the college football playoffs.

283
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 3: I'm just wondering, is there anything you would have changed

284
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 3: that would have made this more exciting? I guess adding

285
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 3: an eighth team is what is what I wanted to do.

286
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 3: Chris add the eighth team.

287
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 2: He is one of the Dolphins, And I still don't

288
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 2: think you got.

289
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 3: In forget about that. You got that eight team, so

290
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 3: you're gonna have nobody with a pie that that's got

291
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 3: to be the first thing. And then I think you

292
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 3: got to rank them by record regardless with a division victory,

293
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 3: instead of putting them ahead where you have like an

294
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 3: eight and eight team ahead of a team over twelve

295
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 3: and four.

296
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: Oh, so you're finally jumping off that it doesn't really

297
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 2: matter about a divisional team having a home game just

298
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 2: because they won their division.

299
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 3: Right, you're gonna get it well, reward you with a

300
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 3: playoff entry, but you don't just get to have a

301
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 3: home game if you don't have a good record. That yeah,

302
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 3: from I'm done, I know with these, especially this year

303
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 3: when we see a team like Minnesota with so many

304
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 3: victories and having to go on the road. That's just horrible.

305
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 2: It's changed, man, Chris, I know, right, New information means

306
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 2: new opinions. That's the promo that we hear like eight

307
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,319
Speaker 2: thousand times. So when we come back to the tirerack

308
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 2: dot Com Studios, let's get going here on a Sunday night,

309
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 2: our buddy Matt Verdram is going to join us. Instant

310
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: reaction to the Commander is advancing with a walkoff win

311
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 2: over Tampa in Tampa and we got our second round set,

312
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 2: but we got a big one coming up tomorrow night,

313
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,000

329
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 2: And what a wild stat to think that Jane Daniels

330
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 2: becomes the first rookie quarterback to win a game on

331
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 2: the road. The Commanders have just been This is shel

332
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 2: They've been all year long. If you if you haven't

333
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 2: watched them, this is it. This is the show you've

334
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 2: been missing all year.

335
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 4: Even in games they've lost, they've had crazy comeback to

336
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 4: stand like against Dallas earlier this year. They've they have

337
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 4: they have played probably the most fighting scasion in terms

338
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 4: of the end of the game of any team in football.

339
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 4: And they you know, look they survive another week and

340
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 4: how they go to Detroit. It's one of those games

341
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 4: where there's royal pressure on you. I mean, you know,

342
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 4: nobody's gonna really pick them to win that game. Not no,

343
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 4: I disrespect to them. It's the lines Backell this year

344
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 4: and now it's uh, you know, you go up there

345
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 4: and you hope for the best and see what happens.

346
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 3: You know, Matt I said this at the time. I

347
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 3: had no problem with dan Quinn going and forward on

348
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 3: fourth down both times. I know you would have been

349
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 3: criticized like crazy had they lost, but I was okay

350
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 3: with him going forward on fourth down.

351
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 5: Yeah.

352
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 4: Look, I'm even though I'm younger, I guess I'm more

353
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 4: old tool in the sense a lot of times I

354
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 4: feel like, you know, take the point, keep it moving,

355
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 4: but at the end of the game, the last time

356
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 4: you went for it, I don't have any problem for like, look,

357
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 4: at that point, you've kind of committed to that mindset

358
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 4: and if you kick there, it's a weird message to send.

359
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 4: I don't have any problem with him saying, look, this

360
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 4: is how we're going to play this, We're going for it,

361
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 4: and Daniels makes a throw, they take the lead and

362
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 4: the way they go. But I think I'll say this

363
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 4: for dan Quinn and then sometimes you see coaches do

364
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 4: the opposit this. He went into the game of the

365
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 4: mindset this is how we're gonna play, and he's stuck

366
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 4: with it, and at least he didn't waffle.

367
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 2: To me, that's the worst how I guess maybe impacted.

368
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 2: Could the coaching cycle be by some of these first

369
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 2: round playoff games? By that, I mean, I mean there's

370
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 2: no way Pittsburgh's gonna make a move, right, Could Tampa

371
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 2: pull a plug after tonight? I mean, what what do

372
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 2: you kind of think? And do we have the vacancies

373
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: that we're gonna have?

374
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so, Like, I don't know, are the

375
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 4: other eight teams really like I mean ninety the like O'Connor.

376
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 4: Let me say er see can be like, is there

377
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 4: really a world where the Bills are going to fire McDermott,

378
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 4: you know if they lose. You know, I thought that

379
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 4: they lost to Denver somehow maybe, you know, I think

380
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,439
Speaker 4: the I think the only way at this point one

381
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 4: of these guys loses their job is it there's just

382
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 4: an epic ballout in this in this division, right you know,

383
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 4: somehow Baltimore went up the Buffalo and won like forty

384
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 4: five three or something. You know, then then maybe as

385
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 4: far as the guys have lost the log card rounds,

386
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 4: I just don't I don't think any of those guys

387
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 4: deserve to be fired. I mean, Bowles is one of

388
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 4: the division. Every year, he's been there a couple of years.

389
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 4: They weren't expected to do it, you know. I just

390
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 4: I think at this point, you know, those guys, you

391
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 4: know you're not you're not getting rid on a floor,

392
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 4: You're not you know, you're not getting I just I

393
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 4: think everybody's safe.

394
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 3: So I zero playoff wins since twenty eighteen. That's that's

395
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: okay for Pittsburgh fans. That's Tomlin that's that works out.

396
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, look, I wrote a whole comun about this

397
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 4: on SI last night where I said, look, if I

398
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 4: were the Steelers, I would sit Tomlin down having having

399
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 4: an exit meeting and basically say, look, I'm trading DJ

400
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 4: Watt this all season, and I'm trading George Pickers, and

401
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 4: we're rebuilding this team because we're never going to win

402
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 4: with this team. It's not happening. Walton pickings each every

403
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 4: year left on the deals lot. It's thirty years old.

404
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 4: And I say, look time now. If I can, if

405
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 4: I can take Cam Hayward, he's gone. If I can

406
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 4: sit Patrick Queen, he's gone, I would I would rip

407
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 4: that think down sud. I would not bring back either

408
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 4: one of those quarterbacks. I mean would. I would basically

409
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 4: bought him out, and I would tell Mike Tomlin, if

410
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 4: you want to be here through that, that's fine, But

411
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 4: if you don't want to be the organist, trade Jo

412
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 4: because I'm sure a team with the Chicago Bears or

413
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 4: the New York Jets it would would be very interested

414
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 4: in his services and provided Tom an interest in going there.

415
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 4: But I yeah, look, I don't have a problem either

416
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 4: way with it. But I would tear the team down.

417
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 4: If they just run this thing back and go nine

418
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 4: to eight this year, that's a disaster. That's way worse

419
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 4: sitting them tearing it down and going four and thirteen.

420
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 3: Non playoffs.

421
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,400
Speaker 2: Here real quick, before we get back to the games,

422
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 2: Mike Rabel officially becomes the head coach of the New

423
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 2: England Patriots today. I'm not gonna lie. I'm a little

424
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 2: bit surprised to hear that. You know, this wasn't just

425
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 2: a slam dunk with what the Ben Johnson report might

426
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 2: have been in Chicago. The Bears want to talk to

427
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,360
Speaker 2: a lot of different people, and it seems like Tom

428
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 2: Brady's selling them hard on Vegas. What do you kind

429
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 2: of make of the Rabel higher and the late next

430
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 2: Domino to four all if you will in the coaching caresel.

431
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 4: Well, look, I mean, not not to be glibed, but

432
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 4: to be very serious. I think when the Patriots decided

433
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 4: to interview Byron left Wich and Pet Hamilton to satisfied

434
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 4: the runny roll, they basically gave him see Yester to

435
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 4: the NFL and just said this is what we're doing.

436
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 4: We're getting Mike Rabel. I mean, they they announced that

437
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 4: they interviewed both those guys simultaneously, like in the same tweet.

438
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 4: They didn't even they didn't pretend to date. Now it

439
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 4: was like a separate deal. It was to me, it

440
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 4: was such a sham. They were always going to hire

441
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 4: a Vrabel and crap, and we can hire a Vrabel

442
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 4: because of them on the history there and everything else. Now, look,

443
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 4: I think the big question now is with Ben Johnson,

444
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 4: where did he go? Because he's kind of the apple

445
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 4: and everybody's eye, and you know, you start looking at

446
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 4: it and going all right, look, if you're the you know,

447
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 4: if you're the Jets, you know Aaron Glenn, there's the

448
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 4: history there. Now, you know, they just had a defensive coach.

449
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 4: A lot of times you'll see teams kind of go

450
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 4: the other way. Maybe they decided to go with another

451
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 4: one with Glenn, uh, you know, they speak no lo.

452
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 4: He's had a few interviews, only sixty five. The only

453
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 4: coach has ever been hired after the age of sixty

454
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 4: five were sharing. So I kind of cut against the grain.

455
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 4: But I think, you know, we're probably yeah, teams get eliminated.

456
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 4: We're going to see more and more coaches get hired

457
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 4: here in pretty rapid succession.

458
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,119
Speaker 3: You know, Matt Chris will tell you. I fall for

459
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 3: all the rumors out there. I saw all the rumors

460
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 3: about Dion the Vegas, Dion the Vegas. I'm like, well,

461
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,640
Speaker 3: it's a done deal. He's going to be the head.

462
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 3: I knew this was going to happen until I saw

463
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 3: a report that said the Raiders have zero interest in

464
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 3: Dion Sanders. So what is it. Do they have interest

465
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 3: or do they not have interest?

466
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 4: It's the Raiders. So like saying that anything's concrete is insane.

467
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 4: Although Tom Brady's I think bringing some sounity and all that,

468
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,199
Speaker 4: but I I would say this about Dion and this

469
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 4: isn't anything. It's just it is what it is. I

470
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 4: can't imagine an NFL team right now with him having

471
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 4: two years of Colorado saying yeah, why don't you come

472
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 4: in and run the team. I mean, Dion is a polarizing

473
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 4: guy and he's an outspoken guy, and a lot of

474
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 4: NFL owners are terrified of that. Now, there are some guys,

475
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 4: some owners who will love that because he'll get attention

476
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 4: and he's a lightning rod. You could stick him on

477
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 4: a billboard and you can sell tickets and all this stuff,

478
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 4: but I find it hard to play. If he he

479
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 4: was eleven games in Colorado next year, then I think

480
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 4: you can sell a little bit more. I just think

481
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 4: right now, a lot of these teams, if you're the Raiders,

482
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 4: if you're the Jets, if you're the Bears, you're Jackson,

483
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 4: you need to calm the situation that you need to

484
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 4: bring in a guy who's a proverbial adult in the room.

485
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 4: It's not he's not an adult, but they need somebody

486
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 4: who can come in there and calm the waters. I

487
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 4: don't know that bringing in Dion, especially like if you're

488
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 4: the Raiders, then what does that mean if you're gonna

489
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 4: move having an Earth to get George Sanders and what

490
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 4: if that doesn't work? Like in Fire his dad. But

491
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 4: there's just there's a lot of stuff that goes into that.

492
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, by the way, the last time whenever a team

493
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 2: wanted an adult in the room, the Browns traded for

494
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:10,399
Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson, so we got, Hey, who disappointed you the

495
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 2: most this weekend?

496
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 4: Well, I guess I would have to say, I'll just

497
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:21,640
Speaker 4: go to an individual. Herbert. Justin Herbert, listen, I thought

498
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 4: that game was a coin flip, so like I'm not

499
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 4: even killed the Chargers troll losing the game. I thought

500
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 4: that was probably the biggest goring flip of the weekend.

501
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 4: But if you want to sit at the big kids table,

502
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 4: you can't play that game. I'm sorry you. You were

503
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 4: at a conference who you have Mahomes, Allen Jackson, and

504
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 4: Herbert I mean and Burrow. Those four guys are going

505
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 4: to be just trading off who goes to the super

506
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 4: Bowl for the next decade. And then you had that

507
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:51,239
Speaker 4: second tier of guys like a Herbert, Anna Lawrence and

508
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 4: when he's healthy, Tua and some of these other guys

509
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 4: Stroud like guys who was like, they're trying to get

510
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 4: that group. You can't go play at Houston team. Now

511
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 4: let's call it what it is. Is not that good

512
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 4: and throw four interceptions and look atrocious. As in the

513
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 4: first half of that game, the Chargers had every opportunity

514
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,439
Speaker 4: to win every I mean, the Detectors were throwing the

515
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:18,479
Speaker 4: ball and they're fumbling. The Chargers could be easily been

516
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 4: up thirteen to sixteen to nothing. That game's over, and

517
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 4: yet Herbert throws a bad pick, the game turns, and

518
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 4: then he just completely falls apart. In the second half.

519
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 4: I mean three of those part receptions completely on it.

520
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 4: One was that the other three were and I just

521
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 4: think you'll walk away from that game. See, he's a

522
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,120
Speaker 4: good player, he's talented, he's got an incredible skill set.

523
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 4: But if he really going to threaten those top four

524
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 4: guys in the AFCA, probably not well.

525
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 3: If he can't sit at the big boy tables, Jordan

526
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 3: Love can either.

527
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 4: Nope, no, I mean us to Jordan Love at least

528
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,160
Speaker 4: won a playoff game, and he played really well against

529
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 4: San Francisco Ast year. That being said, Jordan Loves got

530
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 4: paid a fortune this offseason, fifty five a year. And

531
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 4: he now, look, I get he was hurt. I get

532
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 4: he had some issues, was hurt from week one on.

533
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 4: He did not play well. There's no other way to say.

534
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 4: He did not play well. He wasn't terrible throughout the year,

535
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 4: but was pretty mundane, got up and down and then

536
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 4: in this playoff game. And by the way, he's going

537
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 4: to get off the hook because they want Jalen Hurts

538
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 4: as bad as Jordan Love was, except for the fact

539
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 4: that Jalen Hurts is the void of throwing a pick.

540
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 4: But I mean that was that was not a Mona

541
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 4: Lisa offensively, but look, yeah, love goes home, and you know,

542
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 4: if you're the Packers, you got to go into this offseason.

543
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,679
Speaker 4: I'll get this thing and go all right, we've been

544
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 4: the seventh seed for the last two years, Like we've

545
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 4: got the lines in this division, Minnesota's in this division.

546
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 4: You know, Chicago who knows the lover get right an

547
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 4: that coach, Like, how are we going to get to

548
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 4: the point where we are legitimately contending? Because right now

549
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 4: they're a playoff intertality. But that's all they are. They're

550
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 4: not They're not more than that. They're the NFC's version

551
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 4: of like a trump up Steelers game?

552
00:25:58,680 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 3: Is it?

553
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sorry, you go, We're out of time, My bad. Hey,

554
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 2: uh a bit real quick before we let you go?

555
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:04,399
Speaker 3: Were you uh?

556
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 2: You fired up about tomorrow? And I think it's going

557
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 2: to be a great matchup.

558
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 4: I think it's actual game. I think I think it

559
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,439
Speaker 4: is potential to be the best game of the weekend.

560
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 3: I did too. I think it's gonna be fun.

561
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 2: Matt Verdorant, good to catch back up, buddy, appreciate your

562

Speaker 3: Thanks Matt, take care.

Speaker 2: There you go. Matt Verderant, whoa s I he's been

566
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 2: all over the place. Good to see him getting Wait up, Pike,

567
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,639
Speaker 2: what are you reading a book like a J?

568
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 3: Brown? What's wrong with you? Man?

569
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 2: No, you didn't really ask a question. You just go

570
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 2: Jordan Love. I didn't really know that was your question,

571
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 2: all right, No, no, no, I just listen.

572
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 3: I was trying to make sure you get I thought

573
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 3: you were reading a book.

574
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,120
Speaker 2: I last, Yes, we heard the joke the first time.

575
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 4: Laugh.

576
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Try one more time, Try one more time.

577
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 3: Were you reading a book like my bad? My bad?

578
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Yeah, I was.

579
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 3: You know, I waste my best stuff on you.

580
00:26:58,760 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 6: No.

581
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 2: I literally was there like she's gonna say something. I

582
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 2: better jump in here. Well, we're coming to you live

583
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 2: from the tirerack dot Com studios, and the man who

584
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 2: was our constant, Steve de Sager, comes rolling in because

585
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 2: everything is a final in the world of sports.

586
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 3: What's going on, Steve?

587
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 5: Hello, we had playoff wins in the NFL from Washington,

588
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 5: Philadelphia and Buffalo. And by the way, good Charger comments there,

589
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 5: and we should state the obvious first, that was a

590
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 5: winnable game. Saturday and quarterback Justin Herbert was not good.

591
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 5: What I'll push back on is what I've heard a

592
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 5: little this weekend, and if that game from yesterday is

593
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,439
Speaker 5: even thought of tomorrow, this should not cut up. It

594
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 5: come up in the weekend review tomorrow. People are trying

595
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 5: to fold in. You know, he lost a game of

596
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 5: Jacksonville in the playoffs a couple of years ago. People,

597
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 5: did you even see the game a couple of years ago?

598
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 2: At Jacksonville.

599
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 5: They're up twenty seven to nothing before halftime and the

600
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 5: defense literally could not get a stop the entire second

601
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 5: half the last five drives with the Jacksonville jag whereas

602
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 5: they scored on all of them, including the game winning

603
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,080
Speaker 5: field goal on the final play. If you sc there

604
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 5: were thirty points in an NFL game, you should win.

605
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,399
Speaker 5: I'm not sure that's all on the quarterback. Just for

606
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 5: the record, but in the bigger picture for this year's Chargers,

607
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,199
Speaker 5: it was just year one with coach Jim Harbaugh. There

608
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 5: was an immediate and obvious change for the good with

609
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 5: the defense. Ironically, since Brandon Staley, a former defensive coordinator,

610
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 5: was the defensive play caller and his defenses were bottom

611
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 5: five in the league all three years, either in run

612
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 5: defense or pass defense. Chargers last year, remember they went

613
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 5: for it as far as cap space and the season

614
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 5: was a complete flop. In twenty twenty three coaching change

615
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 5: and then after having to cut salaries for this year,

616
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 5: they had no playmakers at the skill positions on offense

617
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 5: except for Herbert and the drafting of wide receiver Lad

618
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 5: mccauckie turned out great. The drafted an offensive lineman in

619
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 5: the first round worked out great. They won eleven games,

620
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 5: but in the playoff game yesterday they.

621
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 3: Get talking win. Am I missing something.

622
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 5: That I'm getting to the point?

623
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 3: Congratulations and it sounds like you won THATAI.

624
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 5: It's five points in the playoff game yesterday, it was

625
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,479
Speaker 5: painfully obvious what they don't have yet. They don't have

626
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 5: a James Cook like Buffalo. They don't have a Nico

627
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 5: Collins like Houston, et cetera, et cetera. What all these

628
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 5: other playoff teams have The Chargers still have those voids

629
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 5: in the roster now. The defense did rank number one

630
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 5: and fewest points allowed this year. Next year they won't

631
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,479
Speaker 5: have a last play schedule play. They should be a

632
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 5: better roster on offense than this year. There were a

633
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 5: lot of games, including yesterday, we're mid game, people were saying, man,

634
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 5: this is a rock fight, so maybe that part will

635
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 5: change next year. But it just became obvious way before

636
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 5: the game was over yesterday. Oh, this is the playoffs.

637
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 5: This this is okay? Yeah, all right, we see that

638
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 5: kind of like Denver seventh seed, the last team into

639
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 5: the playoffs. But it's the first year with that quarterback.

640
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 5: This is not a finished product. He got that long

641
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 5: touchdown pass in the opening minutes, didn't score again the

642
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 5: rest of the day. They were down ten to seven

643
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 5: at the half at Buffalo Bill's thirty one to seven

644
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 5: the final. Next Sunday, it is Buffalo hosting Baltimore Josh

645
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 5: Allen against Lamar Jack and the Buffalo Bills at home

646
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 5: are nine to oh. Philadelphia at oh Buffalo pit Bills.

647
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 5: Oh that's the keep Bills if there ever was one.

648
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 5: Philadelphia beat Green Bay today on Fox twenty two to ten,

649
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 5: Saquon Barkley one hundred and nineteen yards rushing Jalen hurtzback

650
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 5: from the concussion at two touchdown passes. Saturday night, Washington

651
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 5: at Detroit on Fox TV in the divisional round. The

652
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 5: Commanders advance, winning their six game in a row. It

653
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 5: was twenty three twenty at Tampa Bay tonight, winning on

654
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 5: a thirty seven yard field goal on the final play,

655
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 5: it hit the upright and went through. The Rams quote

656
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 5: home game will be in Arizona on Monday night against

657
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 5: the Vikings. There are I heard twenty buses going from

658
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 5: La to Arizona. There will be thousands of Rams fans

659
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 5: for that game. The winner of Vikings Rams tomorrow will

660
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 5: go to Philadelphia for a game next Sunday at three

661
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 5: pm Eastern time. We know the divisional round weekend will

662
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 5: be starting with the Chiefs home game against Houston Saturday afternoon.

663
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 5: The Patriots officially hired Mike Rabel as their new head coach.

664
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 2: Becky Hey, thanks, Steve Sega will have updates all night

665
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 2: long here on Fox Sports Radio. Arnie, who disappointed you

666
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 2: the most this week? And you seem to like the

667
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 2: idea of just picking on the quarterbacks there Herbert.

668
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,959
Speaker 3: And Justin Herbert was was a big time disappointment, especially

669
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 3: the way he looked early. Chris, he was zipping the

670
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 3: ball in there. I'm like, Okay, this is gonna be good.

671
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 3: And you know I've been picking on the Texans all

672
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 3: year long. CJ. Strotted had a miserable year where those

673
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 3: thirty two points came from after they were down six

674
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 3: nothing at the Sega's right or batt Verderm, which he

675
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 3: was right. It could have been thirteen nothing sixteen twenty one.

676
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 3: I mean, who knows if they would have just had

677
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 3: a little bit of luck. And after six nothing, they

678
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 3: were just not existing to a defense that was not

679
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 3: all that overwhelming this year. So I very disappointed with

680
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 3: Justin Herbert and the Chargers also.

681
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 2: I was I think that was it for me. There's

682
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 2: a part of me that was disappointed in the Steelers,

683
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 2: but I had said this when I I watched them

684
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 2: earlier this year, and maybe part of it was because

685
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 2: I was kind of in a fight with one of

686
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 2: my friends.

687
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 3: I was a Steelers fan too.

688
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 2: But they beat the Raiders in like week seven or

689
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 2: eight or early in the season, and I remember coming

690
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 2: away from this this was even before Russell Wilson had

691
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 2: taken over, and I thought, I just don't know how

692
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 2: good they are now. They proceeded to stuff it in

693
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 2: my face because they won their next four games, including

694
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 2: wins over the Commanders and the Ravens during that stretch,

695
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 2: But aren't he something bad happened to them down the

696
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 2: stretch this season? They a lost five of their last

697
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 2: seven games in the regular season, including an embarrassing loss

698
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 2: in Cleveland of the Browns, and then they hit one

699
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 2: big play yesterday to make the game tight. But honestly,

700
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 2: it just wasn't very competitive yesterday between the Ravens and

701
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 2: the Steelers. So maybe it's a little bit unfair, but

702
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 2: a Steelers team that was sitting there at one point

703
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 2: in the season, what are you looking at eight and two?

704
00:32:58,280 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 2: To finish the way that they did and to be

705
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 2: in the play and the first round of the playoffs

706
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 2: is just incredibly shocking.

707
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 3: I think in a lot of ways. You know, we

708
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 3: talk about where these quarterbacks are gonna end up in

709
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 3: the draft. I'm so curious to see where these veterans

710
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 3: are going to end That is Sam Dartle good to

711
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 3: stay in Minnesota Worre's cousins. I saw there was a

712
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 3: rumor today, I can't remember off the top of my head,

713
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 3: I might have retweeted off to look that up about

714
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 3: him going somewhere. Pittsburgh to me is intriguing. I guess

715
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 3: they got to keep Russell Wilson, don't they because of

716
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 3: the money they're paying them so.

717
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:29,719
Speaker 2: Well, it's only a one year deal. They got him,

718
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 2: so they've they've got to do something. I mean, they've

719
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 2: got to do with him now. They don't have any

720
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 2: time to wait on Russell Wilson.

721
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 3: We lost.

722
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 2: People want him right exactly. All right, when we come

723
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,800

Speaker 2: from the Tyraq dot com studios. Okay, if I'm gonna

737
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 2: be mister negative, let me be mister positive here Arnie, Okay,

738
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 2: go ahead, And I do want to point out that

739
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 2: our buddy UCLA Dodger Frank had kind of beat me

740
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,280
Speaker 2: to my topic tonight. He had a poll up Worst

741
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 2: Weekend Justin Herbert, Mike Tomlin, Todd Bowles are sportsbooks right now.

742
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 2: It's in a four way tie. So you can go

743
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,319
Speaker 2: vote there if you would like. I'm mighty, that's actually good.

744
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 2: That's a good poll. But who really impressed you? What

745
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 2: really caught you right now? I'm a prisoner of the moment,

746
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 2: and I would say seeing Jane Daniels on the road

747
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 2: in a playoff game and becoming the first rookie to

748
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 2: win a road playoff game, that's pretty awesome.

749
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 3: That's pretty awesome, you know. Take this in the can siteration.

750
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 3: Also that I didn't think Baltimore was all that great

751
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 3: in their victory over Pittsburgh. I just thought Pittsburgh was

752
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,359
Speaker 3: pretty crappy, to be honest with you. And the same

753
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,360
Speaker 3: thing goes with Philadelphia. Philadelphia was like Jalen Hurts was

754
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 3: all that impressive too. I think Washington was the best

755
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:16,399
Speaker 3: of the bunch. But what Buffalo did have to give

756
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 3: you up a quick seven and then doing nothing after

757
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 3: that was quite impressive, so the Bills were extremely impressive

758
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:24,320
Speaker 3: this weekend.

759
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 2: Also a couple of early submissions from all y'all to

760
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 2: the program Tonight, Scott writes, I'm most disappointed in that

761
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 2: Houston fan base. The stadium was packed, yet the way

762
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 2: it sounded on TV you could hear a pin drop.

763
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 2: Absolutely no atmosphere. I know they won, but that has

764
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 2: to really make players and coaches feel awful when the

765
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 2: fans don't care. Now an I had a lot of

766
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:51,439
Speaker 2: Houston fans, they care, But of all the atmospheres, even

767
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 2: thinking about the college games this weekend, none of them

768
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 2: seemed like I needed to go get everyone a cup

769
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 2: of coffee or a Red Bull or something. Aren't he

770
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 2: quite like that Houston Chargers game? And to be fair,

771
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 2: it wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing game I think that

772
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 2: we've seen so far this year.

773
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 3: No, I agree with you. It wasn't like the first

774
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 3: run of the college football where we had those first

775
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,880
Speaker 3: round home games and it was just so electric. You

776
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 3: didn't get that, and you know you're not gonna get

777
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,439
Speaker 3: that in Houston. I'm sorry to say that. At least

778
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 3: in baseball, it sounds a lot more exciting than that.

779
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 3: Doesn't football to beyond the jet does?

780
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 2: Bak writes, Chargers and the Texans was a bleep show.

781
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 2: The Broncos defense was the biggest disappointment for me. They

782
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 2: were great all season and had no answer for the

783
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 2: Bills offense and running game. The Eagles walked and Todd

784
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 2: Bowles always looks so sad tonight he had a reason. Yeah,

785
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,840
Speaker 2: he kind of froze there late whenever they needed a touchdown.

786
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 2: Late night drug tester is on it early, He writes,

787
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 2: Can the NFL just stop being cute with the playoff

788
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 2: schedule and say Houston is always playing the early Saturday

789
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 2: game unless they make the AFC champions?

790
00:36:55,880 --> 00:37:00,479
Speaker 3: Amen to that? What was the uh? They played the early?

791
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,479
Speaker 3: Gave him that? What eight years in a row or something?

792
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 3: Did that affect every time they make the playoffs? And

793
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 3: they should to be honest with you, that's exactly where

794
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 3: they belong in that early Saturday morning slot.

795
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 2: Colin Wrights, as a Packers fan, I keep saying I

796
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 2: had a buddy make fun of me because I said

797
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 2: when we get text to our local show or when

798
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,879
Speaker 2: people tweet our show on Sunday nights, that no one

799
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 2: writes anything, they type it out.

800
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:23,240
Speaker 3: So I'm sorry.

801
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 2: I understand that Colin's not sitting down with a pin

802
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 2: in the paper and writing things out, but it's it's

803
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,320
Speaker 2: my crutch, so let me live with it, Arnie Colin Wrights.

804
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 2: As a Packers fan, I agree one percent with Matt

805
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,320
Speaker 2: Verdant after two seasons. Jordan Love is a really good quarterback,

806
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 2: but it's hard to be sold on him lighting up

807
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:45,280
Speaker 2: the scoreboard and willing the team to multiple playoff victories

808
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:46,800
Speaker 2: when the games are close.

809
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 3: So is that a reason good round last year? Though?

810
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 3: They he a good little couple of games last year

811
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 3: in the playoffs.

812
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they smoked the Cowboys. I guess my my

813
00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 2: question would be, if that's your take, and I'm not

814
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 2: disagreeing with the Colin, you obviously have watched every throw

815
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 2: that this dude has made. As a Packers fan, I

816
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 2: might be a little bit more of a red zone

817
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 2: Packers fan, but I mean, is there is there this

818
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 2: point where you're trying to say, yeah, he can't get

819
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 2: it done?

820
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:18,320
Speaker 3: I mean exactly.

821
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 2: I mean, dude just went off for two seventy two

822
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 2: and three touchdowns and they went over the Cowboys last

823
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,359
Speaker 2: year wasn't as good against the Niners in a game

824
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 2: that ended up being pretty tight. But I mean, if

825
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 2: you're gonna start questioning this now, he's still at least

826
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 2: got I think, what two more years before you can

827
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:35,439
Speaker 2: really start panicking with this guy?

828
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 3: I agree with you there. Look, I was thinking, did

829
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,839
Speaker 3: they really go out and get optimal people around them? Yes,

830
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 3: they went and got Josh Jacobs, so that was a big,

831
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:48,800
Speaker 3: big upgrade. But didn't then they have injuries. Dobbs missed

832
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 3: a lot of games and he got hurt again, didn't he?

833
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 3: So yeah, and there was other injuries too to some

834
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 3: of the wide receivers. I'm wondering how much that played

835
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 3: into a factor in this year.

836
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 2: And let's not forget he got hurt too. But I

837
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 2: mean Jordan Love wasn't a hundred percent either. And then

838
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 2: one more here, I'll allow it, Prito. He writes, well

839
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 2: Mayfield and said Tampa Bay has more fun with him

840
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 2: at quarterback than walking on eggshells with Brady. So I

841
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 2: guess they'll be having fun in Cankun instead of the

842
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 2: super Bowl and playing for a ring.

843
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,919
Speaker 3: Why does everything got to be can't Coon? Why can't

844
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 3: it be Mazalan I've.

845
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 2: Never understood that. I've never understood It's like, does everything

846
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 2: have to be candy?

847
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 3: Right? I mean, there's a lot of great places to go.

848
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 3: You don't have to make it. Can't kuon them? People

849
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 3: don't even really go to kangkun anymore?

850
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 2: And stop it, that's right, can couon on three? I

851
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 2: think it kind of became like an NBA joke.

852
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 3: Public on three that doesn't have the same ring to it.

853
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,280
Speaker 2: No one wants to make on three, Tauphin Island on three,

854
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 2: Disney World on three.

855
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 3: It's just like a Bahamas on three. All right?

883
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 2: hired by the Broncos, and then he went to the

884
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:19,680

888
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,160
Speaker 2: too bad at all. I didn't how did I miss

889
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 2: that on the picks? Oh my gosh, you're in big

890
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:37,840

891
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they're not doing too well against the top

892
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 3: two opponents in the NBA. But your Oklahoma City team

893
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:46,359
Speaker 3: just crunched us. They're good.

894
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 2: They're really good. They're really good. But it's also very

895
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 2: early still in the season. I mean, in a lot

896
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 2: of ways, we're not even at the halfway point. And

897
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,720
Speaker 2: I've got Oklahoma City fans trying to plan a parade.

898
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,319
Speaker 2: They're really good and they're really fun, and I don't

899
00:41:58,320 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 2: think they're going anywhere.

900
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 3: But it's too bad. Calm down, just a little bit.

901
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:03,440
Speaker 3: Calm down?

902
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:04,320
Speaker 2: Why is it too bad?

903
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 3: If I if we did a poll right now, can

904
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 3: you pull up a pole right now, does Oklahoma City

905
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 3: have a team in the NBA? It would be fifty

906
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 3: to fifty. Yes.

907
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,360
Speaker 2: No, Well, I mean, Arnie, give me a little bit

908
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 2: of credit. I mean, I would say, of my you know,

909
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 2: twenty thousand or whatever followers on Twitter, probably nineteen thousand

910
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 2: of them are from Oklahoma, So I would hope that.

911
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 3: Will not guaranteed that.

912
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:30,320
Speaker 2: How does that matter?

913
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 3: Oh, don't get mad, don't no. I am bad.

914
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 2: I think it's ps because you're part of the problem.

915
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 2: You're the reason why the NBA, I yet it's under on.

916
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 2: You're the reason why the NBA keeps cramming the Lakers

917
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 2: and the Heat and the Nicks and the Celtics down

918
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,840
Speaker 2: our throat. And the best story right now is in

919
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City and Cleveland and Memphis, but none at all.

920
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 2: They're so you're so snobby and you're so snuck up

921
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 2: in your bad right that you'd rather get crap basketball

922
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 2: teams on your TV and complain about how bad the

923
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 2: NBA is. Then, dude, just a little bit of work

924
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,399
Speaker 2: to actually, you know, dig into the what do they

925
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 2: call the NBA leak pass? Dig into your leak pass

926
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 2: a little bit, Arnie, watch the thunder Watch the calf.

927
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:16,440
Speaker 3: No, I can't. They're not a big market.

928
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 2: It's not that.

929
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 3: That's a U problem, not a meat problem. That's a Cleveland,

930
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 3: O Oklahoma City are phenomenal teams. But that's right. It

931
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:26,720
Speaker 3: doesn't move the needle. It doesn't.

932
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 2: It absolutely does, and it did whenever they were winning.

933
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 2: Before Golden State never moved the needle. Golden State. Nobody

934
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,840
Speaker 2: cared about Golden State until they started doing what winning

935
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 2: you win, people are gonna watch you.

936
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 3: I don't care where you're from. The Lakers move the

937
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 3: needle and they're not big time winners now. They don't

938
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 3: move the needle right now, three years ago.

939
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 2: They don't move the needle right now and there, and

940
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 2: like you said, they're three four years to move from

941
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:53,360
Speaker 2: a title. So I I think that kind of thinking

942
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,280
Speaker 2: is what's wrong with the NBA. Now we've already wasted

943
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,480
Speaker 2: too much time talking about the NBA. What are you doing?

944
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 2: Is this just Willard and eat from What are we

945
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 2: doing here? Yes, my goodness, me trigger that people don't

946
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,920
Speaker 2: know about Oklahoma City. Let's talk a little college here

947
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,319
Speaker 2: real quick before you get back to the NFL. But

948
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 2: anything from the semi finals that you felt like you

949
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,800
Speaker 2: needed to get to, I thought it was two incredible games.

950
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 2: Terrible decision making by Drew Aller cost Penn State, terrible

951
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:26,000
Speaker 2: play calling by Steve Sarkisian cost Texas. Right in the end,

952
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 2: I think we got the two better teams in those matchups.

953
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 3: We got the two better teams than those matchups. Though,

954
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 3: Am I the only person that feels like Penn State

955
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 3: squandered the up? Absolutely? You're right, I feel like they

956
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 3: should have won the game. It was theirs to win.

957
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:45,360
Speaker 3: I give Notre Dame credit frctually pulling it off, but

958
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 3: I felt like it was Penn State's to win and

959
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,760
Speaker 3: they should have won the game. And if you played

960
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 3: the exact same scenario out ten times, they probably winned

961
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 3: seven out of ten times. It just it just didn't

962
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 3: finish off for them. And you know, again, like I said,

963
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 3: give the Irish credit, right, we got the two best

964
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 3: teams in there, Ohio State of Notre Dame. It is

965
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 3: funny though, that a team that lost to Northern Illinois

966
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 3: will be playing for a national championship. How great is that?

967
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 2: And a team that lost to It's our trival and

968
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 2: the team that it turned around a beat in the

969
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,719
Speaker 2: playoffs in Ohio State, they lost to Michigan and they

970
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 2: lost to Oregon. This is one of the great advantages

971
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,839
Speaker 2: of twelve teams. Neither one of these teams probably would

972
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 2: have made the four team playoff definitely wouldn't have been

973
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 2: there if it was just two.

974
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 3: Right, So does the devalue the regular season now?

975
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 2: Because sure, absolutely, But it's it's not like it's not existent.

976
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,719
Speaker 3: Not really though, because if you have three losses. It's look,

977
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 3: you're pretty bleak for you.

978
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:43,240
Speaker 2: So I think it's it's it's gonna take a while

979
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 2: for the diehard college football fans to get used to it.

980
00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 2: I know it did for me this year. But I

981
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 2: was standing on the field watching Notre Dame lose to

982
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 2: Northern Illinois, and I don't know, I don't know if

983
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 2: you knew, If you know Cole Kublick, he was at

984
00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 2: Ou that day, he was covering the Oklahoma game, and

985
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,399
Speaker 2: we were standing on the field watching that game come

986
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 2: down to the end on the big screen before our

987
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 2: game kicked off, And as soon as Northern Illinois won it,

988
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,839
Speaker 2: we turned to each other and said, oh, well, Notre

989
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 2: names out of the playoffs, because right, I mean, for

990
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 2: the longest time, Arnie, you lose one game in college

991
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 2: football and where are you.

992
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 3: You're not much with the Northern Illinois no offense, You're

993
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 3: on your finished.

994
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 2: Now all of a sudden, you know, you can lose

995
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,040
Speaker 2: a game, and you can bounce back, and you can

996
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 2: maybe even lose a second game as long as you

997
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 2: know you're in the SEC or the Big ten or

998
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 2: maybe even Notre Dames. So it's a whole new way

999
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 2: of thinking about things. And I do feel like when

1000
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 2: all was said and done, I don't know if we

1001
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 2: got the two best teams throughout the season. Still kind

1002
00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 2: of think Oregon got just caught up in a buzzsaw

1003
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 2: against Ohio State. But I feel like we got the

1004
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,960
Speaker 2: two teams that were playing the best football at the

1005
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 2: right time. That might be a captain obvious thing.

1006
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 3: And we lose an all time favorite topic. Also, you know,

1007
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 3: like before the Cubs won, you know, we used to

1008
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 3: talk about the Cubs and what are they gonna win

1009
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 3: and love the losers and all that, and then they

1010
00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:59,760
Speaker 3: win a championship and all that goes out the window.

1011
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 3: I guess all that Ryan day criticism that that goes

1012
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:10,360
Speaker 3: out the window now or I'm game, no, no, stop it,

1013
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:14,359
Speaker 3: it's done right, it's it's it's over criticizing him. He's

1014
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 3: not going anywhere. He's he's solidified now with Ohio's date,

1015
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 3: none of that bs anymore that he should be fired.

1016
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 2: I like the the thought that you feel like Ohio

1017
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 2: State fans are going to feel some sort of rational

1018
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:31,799
Speaker 2: way if they go out and get beat.

1019
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:34,360
Speaker 3: Are you going to tell me that if they lose,

1020
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,200
Speaker 3: there'll be people calling for his job.

1021
00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 2: Yes, already, you want your you want Mike McDaniel fire

1022
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,920
Speaker 2: for goodness sakes, and he took the Dolphins to places

1023
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 2: they hadn't been in years.

1024
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:46,439
Speaker 3: Difference if he go if he went to the Super Bowl,

1025
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 3: I don't think I'd be wanting him fired.

1026
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 2: I don't know if they lost that Super Bowl.

1027
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,560
Speaker 3: I mean Ryan Day. I saw I heard the stat

1028
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,360
Speaker 3: that Ryan Day and I forget who else I have

1029
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,840
Speaker 3: the best record post World War Two of it. It's amazing.

1030
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:00,959
Speaker 2: I'm listen.

1031
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 3: I'm not disagreeing with you.

1032
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 2: I just want to make this very clear.

1033
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:04,920
Speaker 3: I'm not disagreeing with you.

1034
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 2: I think I think criticism of Ryan Day when he

1035
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 2: loses games to Michigan is warranted, and I think he

1036
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,520
Speaker 2: accepts it. But I also think he's one of the

1037
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,920
Speaker 2: best coaches in college football and he's done a good

1038
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,799
Speaker 2: job this year. He really has, and they're gonna win

1039
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 2: the national Championship. I just I think they're gonna beat

1040
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,360
Speaker 2: Notre Dame a week from Monday. I don't think he

1041
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 2: deserves it. But if they don't beat Notre Dame on Monday,

1042
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 2: a week from Monday, I guarantee you there's gonna be

1043
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 2: Ohio State fans up in social media world's message board

1044
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 2: world favor we blow this, right, and how do we

1045
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,560
Speaker 2: not beat a team that we were that much of

1046
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,960
Speaker 2: a favorite against. They're still they haven't beat Michigan what

1047
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,839
Speaker 2: four years, and that wighs heavy on him. I mean,

1048
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 2: even if they win a national title, Michigan is still

1049
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 2: able to say, hey, congrats, we still beat you.

1050
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 3: Right.

1051
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,799
Speaker 2: So there's just it's it's funny how that works out

1052
00:48:58,800 --> 00:48:59,720
Speaker 2: in the rivalry world.

1053
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:01,360
Speaker 3: I'm not arguing with you.

1054
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 2: I agree with you, but I'm telling you right now,

1055
00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 2: if they lose, you know, there's still going to be

1056
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,399
Speaker 2: angry Ohio State fans who would say right away, what, well,

1057
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 2: let's go get Marcus Freeman. He should be our coach.

1058
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 2: Look what he did. And they don't have the nil

1059
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 2: budget and Notre Dame that we have here at Ohio State.

1060
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:22,480
Speaker 2: And guess where Marcus Freeman played his college ball, Ohio State.

1061
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 3: Marcus Freeman going to go to coach the Bears.

1062
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 2: There's a report today that the Chicago Bears want to

1063
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 2: interview Marcus Freeman. According to Tom Pelisero of the NFL Network,

1064
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 2: Freeman signed a contract extension with Notre Dame last month.

1065
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 2: He's emerged as one of the most respected football coaches

1066
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 2: in America, according to Pro Footballtalk dot Com. Don't know

1067
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 2: how you gauge that, but I don't. I don't know.

1068
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,520
Speaker 2: That's a great question. You know, Notre Dame still has

1069
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,920
Speaker 2: to fight the issue of our You know, is Marcus

1070
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,439
Speaker 2: Freeman doing this with the kind of budget that's going

1071
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:59,359
Speaker 2: to allow them to consistently contend, right? Or is there

1072
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 2: a little bit of hey, little smoking mirror is going

1073
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,439
Speaker 2: on here, right, and Brian Kelly at the end might

1074
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:06,719
Speaker 2: not be wrong. You still have a lot of investment

1075
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 2: to be made within this program. And in fairness, Notre

1076
00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 2: Dame's not even in this championship game if Drew Aller

1077
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 2: doesn't throw it back across the middle right to a

1078
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:19,680
Speaker 2: defensive back. So I don't know, I'm not I don't

1079
00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 2: have a good feel on it. But I think you

1080
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 2: listen if the Bears come calling right right right?

1081
00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 3: No, I agree, I think I listen and I may

1082
00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:31,440
Speaker 3: take it over Notre Dame. It depends. I mean, if

1083
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 3: you think you have a great quarterback, you might want

1084
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:35,799
Speaker 3: to take it. Also, now we know the teams that

1085
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,640
Speaker 3: are interested in yours, right, we've finally got a list

1086
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,320
Speaker 3: in where they're coming from.

1087
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,399
Speaker 2: Well you go and pro. If you're Quinn viewers, are

1088
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:45,400
Speaker 2: you testing the market?

1089
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 3: No, it says the report that I put on Twitter

1090
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:53,680
Speaker 3: was that that has your choice to make drawing considerable

1091
00:50:53,800 --> 00:51:00,120
Speaker 3: interest right from Ohio State, Alabama and Ole Miss if

1092
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,640
Speaker 3: you were to transfer again.

1093
00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:05,360
Speaker 2: Yes, that's been out there for a long time. My

1094
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:09,600
Speaker 2: question to you is would you go somewhere else? And

1095
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:11,880
Speaker 2: Georgia would be in that mix to would you go

1096
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,319
Speaker 2: somewhere else in college or do you go turn pro?

1097
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:14,760
Speaker 3: Whenever?

1098
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:16,280
Speaker 2: It's a pretty soft quarterback class.

1099
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,319
Speaker 3: I think I go ahead and go to college one

1100
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 3: more year. Considering Carson Beck is what did he get

1101
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,280
Speaker 3: like six mill to go to Miami or three?

1102
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:23,680
Speaker 4: Three?

1103
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 3: Wow? I thought it was more than that. But if

1104
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 3: I'm yours, I'd probably take the money and transfer to

1105
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:30,680
Speaker 3: one of those schools. Then I go pro after that.

1106
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,359
Speaker 2: Right, You got to remember every number that you hear

1107
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,240
Speaker 2: a guy is getting in college football.

1108
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,319
Speaker 3: You got it. Divide it by like two, and that's

1109
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,399
Speaker 3: really what it is, you know. God, Because I thought

1110
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 3: it was six million with Carson Beck, No it is not.

1111
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 2: It's three million that he because he got one point

1112
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,320
Speaker 2: five last year from Georgia, so he's getting three million

1113
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,040
Speaker 2: this year from Miami. Now he's making more money in

1114
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 2: other endorsement and things of that nature. But you know,

1115
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:53,800
Speaker 2: go ahead and say six, because no one's going to

1116
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:55,840
Speaker 2: really be like, oh yeah, he's like eight or nine.

1117
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 2: By the time you're done, Carson Beck will have made

1118
00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 2: one hundred million dollars in his move to Miami. I

1119
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:06,760
Speaker 2: think that if you're a fringe first round quarterback, and

1120
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,839
Speaker 2: with the numbers the way they're looking now, if you're

1121
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 2: a fringe first round quarterback and there's a really good

1122
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 2: chance you're going to go on Day one, you got

1123
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:17,959
Speaker 2: to go to the draft. But if you're not, even

1124
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 2: if you're second, third, fourth, fifth, you got to go

1125
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:23,439
Speaker 2: back to college because you're gonna end up making more

1126
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 2: money as a free agent in college than you will

1127
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:29,560
Speaker 2: hoping you make a roster fighting to get on a roster.

1128
00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 2: I mean, look at Dylan Gabriel, Arnie. Dylan Gabriel went

1129
00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 2: to Oregon and went back to college because he didn't

1130
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 2: get the NFL draft grade that he wanted.

1131
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 3: Right, he got a little unrestricted free agent.

1132
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:41,799
Speaker 2: Is what he was going to be, and he goes

1133
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 2: to Oregon, makes two mill this year, which would have

1134
00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:47,240
Speaker 2: been more than he made in the NFL this season,

1135
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 2: and now you have people saying, what.

1136
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:51,800
Speaker 3: Thank God will take him in the first round.

1137
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 2: I think he might be a second round quarterback. So

1138
00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:57,800
Speaker 2: if I'm a college quarterback, if I'm not in the

1139
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,719
Speaker 2: first round, maybe the second round too. I think I'm

1140
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 2: going back to school and making seven figures somewhere.

1141
00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 3: I think that's exactly what I would do. And by

1142
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 3: the way, since you're talking about transferring, I just here's

1143
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:14,839
Speaker 3: where my snobbish comes in from. And and I hate

1144
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,879
Speaker 3: to pick on my school, Arizona, but you know, I'm

1145
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 3: into the blue bloods. And you know, when I see

1146
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,719
Speaker 3: that people are transferring and I go, oh, great, Arizona

1147
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:26,880
Speaker 3: got another guy that says he's from like Texas State

1148
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 3: or Fresno, I'm like, no, No, can't we get somebody

1149
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 3: from like Georgia or Alabat? Is it really now?

1150
00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:37,880
Speaker 1: Is it? I mean?

1151
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,760
Speaker 3: I can't? I mean please. That's like saying, Oh, I'm

1152
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,480
Speaker 3: really going to hook you up with a girl. She's

1153
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 3: a definite two. No. No, I come on, man, you

1154
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 3: I just can I just get one five star athlete

1155
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:53,680
Speaker 3: do I do I have to.

1156
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 2: Get a five star from Georgia. You might get a

1157
00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 2: five star.

1158
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:03,680
Speaker 3: We have guys transferring from like Freds Noo and dregs

1159
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:06,399
Speaker 3: like that. Come on, man, I want on a big

1160
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:07,160
Speaker 3: time program.

1161
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,919
Speaker 2: So you would rather have a third string guy from

1162
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 2: Alabama than to have a person that started at say,

1163
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,360
Speaker 2: the University of Tulsen became like a thousand yard receiver.

1164
00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:22,040
Speaker 3: Yes, I think so, yes, Well come on, man, well

1165
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 3: you know what you're gonna tell me. You don't like

1166
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:26,640
Speaker 3: those five star athletes or not big time anymore for you?

1167
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 3: I like production.

1168
00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 2: I like production because the bottom line more than give

1169
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 2: me the guy.

1170
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,879
Speaker 3: That went to Texas State that a great year there?

1171
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:37,360
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, why not?

1172
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:38,440
Speaker 3: Okay?

1173
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 2: Hey where did cam Ward go before Miami?

1174
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:43,800
Speaker 3: Where I don't remember?

1175
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 2: He started? That incarnate word?

1176
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:49,880
Speaker 3: Would you like to have him as your quarterback? See

1177
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:50,560
Speaker 3: what a yeah?

1178
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:52,719
Speaker 2: See that's just the thing about it. That's the thing

1179
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:55,520
Speaker 2: about it is the bottom line more than anything else

1180
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:59,880
Speaker 2: is you'll you'll want everyone from the big time school.

1181
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,520
Speaker 2: But in the end you realize you can find talent

1182
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 2: other places. That's why the portal is as crazy.

1183
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:08,640
Speaker 3: So you're let me just get this Chris Plank says,

1184
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 3: take the transfer from Texas State over Alabama and Georgia.

1185
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:16,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exactly what I said. You're exactly right. All right,

1186
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 2: when we come back to the tyrack dot com studios,

1187
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:21,360
Speaker 2: let's get back on the NFL. Let's talk with Todd

1188
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 2: Furman next right here on Fox Sports Radio. All right,

1189
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:28,600
Speaker 2: it's Arnie and Plank right here on Fox Sports Radio.

1190
00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:32,399
Speaker 2: We are not chasing the cat, We're chasing the cash,

1191
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,000
Speaker 2: and we're welcoming and our buddy Todd Furman from the

1192
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:38,560
Speaker 2: bet to Board podcast. Todd, a good bad day for

1193
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:41,520
Speaker 2: the books today? Seem like seemed like it might have

1194
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 2: been a bad one. What say you?

1195
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 3: Uh, you know what?

1196
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:46,560
Speaker 7: Games all coming in under the total definitely helped the

1197
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:48,880
Speaker 7: house out a little bit. Books found themselves rooting for

1198
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,600
Speaker 7: the Commanders in the late games. So the way it

1199
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:55,839
Speaker 7: started with two favorites covering relatively easily, Buffalo of course,

1200
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 7: creating separation after the break against the Broncos in Philadelphia

1201
00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:02,040
Speaker 7: and Green Bay mudding up the waters, I'm sure the

1202
00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,319
Speaker 7: books were thrilled with the Commanders at least winning out

1203
00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 7: right to take care of some of the liability has

1204
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,680
Speaker 7: been out there but most of the folks that had

1205
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 7: started the weekend on Friday night had no problems getting home,

1206
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 7: tying Ohio State to the Baltimore Ravens to the Buffalo Bills,

1207
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:17,640
Speaker 7: and of course closing that out with the Philadelphia Eagles

1208
00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 7: and style.

1209
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 3: If I had a bet on the Vikings Rams last week,

1210
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:24,560
Speaker 3: do I still have that bet or earlier in the

1211
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:26,759
Speaker 3: week before they moved the games? And if I did,

1212
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:28,920
Speaker 3: could I middle the game? Todd? What's going on in

1213
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:29,560
Speaker 3: this situation?

1214
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:33,680
Speaker 7: It all depends on the casino. Every sports book operator

1215
00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,440
Speaker 7: has their own house rules. Some books issue a refund

1216
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,960
Speaker 7: when there's a change in venue. Other books maintained that

1217
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:41,360
Speaker 7: it's still action as long as the game is played

1218
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:44,680
Speaker 7: within seven days of the original schedule date. So not

1219
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:48,240
Speaker 7: exactly one size fits all approach, depending on which preferred

1220
00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:50,560
Speaker 7: operator you happen to place that bet with. So I'm

1221
00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 7: sure there are plenty of folks that felt thrilled having

1222
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,600
Speaker 7: the Los Angeles Rams was what they thought was a

1223
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:57,600
Speaker 7: short home underdog and that plus two plus two and

1224
00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 7: a half range that now have the Rams more on

1225
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,600
Speaker 7: a net field with a similar number. And for those

1226
00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:05,000
Speaker 7: folks who bet the Rams, you know pretty late in market,

1227
00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:06,800
Speaker 7: you know, they end up on the wrong side of it,

1228
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:08,520
Speaker 7: at least from getting the best of the number with

1229
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:10,759
Speaker 7: that price having moved as far as pick them or

1230
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 7: even Rams minus one in some shops before reopening with

1231
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,200
Speaker 7: the Vikings minus two to two and a half.

1232
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 2: Did it surprise you at all that it moved a bit?

1233
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 2: Or I mean, do you think it's going to be

1234
00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 2: that much of a factor where it's being played tomorrow,

1235
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 2: at least in your personal opinion.

1236
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 7: I think it changes a little bit of the dynamic there.

1237
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,320
Speaker 7: But look, we can't really sugarcoat that so far doesn't

1238
00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:33,120
Speaker 7: exactly have the most daunting home field advantage. So if

1239
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:35,600
Speaker 7: we were moving a game from se lambeau Field or

1240
00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,120
Speaker 7: from Buffalo, it's going to change that. I namit quite

1241
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:39,800
Speaker 7: a bit more than the Rams having to go on

1242
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:42,440
Speaker 7: the road to Arizona. It's more about the displacement and

1243
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 7: the interruption and travel schedule above all else. And you know,

1244
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,680
Speaker 7: wondering if the players that have been in the thickest things,

1245
00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:51,080
Speaker 7: given the unfortunate circumstances in southern California, are able to

1246
00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:54,000
Speaker 7: compartmentalize and put together a more complete effort than what

1247
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,480
Speaker 7: we saw from the Charger Saturday against the Texans, so

1248
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 7: no advantage.

1249
00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 3: And because you're saying that the line change from the

1250
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,480
Speaker 3: Rams playing at home to playing it neutral.

1251
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 7: No, it did change. The game was a pick him.

1252
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 7: And now we're looking at the Vikings minus two and

1253
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:08,960
Speaker 7: a half. So okay, you had a two two and

1254
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 7: a half point move. Number originally opened with Minnesota a

1255
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:14,360
Speaker 7: two point favorite at so far, but the price got

1256
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:16,400
Speaker 7: that down, so we're kind of more in line with

1257
00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 7: where the number opened. But again the change in venue.

1258
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:20,800
Speaker 7: But I think the bigger storyline of follow here is

1259
00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:22,680
Speaker 7: a change in surface for two teams that have grown

1260
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 7: accustomed to playing their home games on turf that now

1261
00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 7: we're playing on natural grass and a surface that didn't

1262
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:29,960
Speaker 7: exactly look to be the fastest in the league when

1263
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,200
Speaker 7: we saw the Cardinals play their regular season finale there

1264
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 7: against the forty nine ers.

1265
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 2: Who was We've asked this question throughout the night, Todd,

1266
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:40,120
Speaker 2: but of the of the four teams, five team listen

1267
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:41,680
Speaker 2: went to five teams that have going home. We got

1268
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:43,920
Speaker 2: one more to go. Who was the most disappointing in

1269
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:46,120
Speaker 2: your mind this week and who let you down the most?

1270
00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 7: I'm not going to say disappointing, but I think the

1271
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:52,000
Speaker 7: Denver Broncos didn't exactly quit themselves as well as they

1272
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,360
Speaker 7: could have. I mean, Sean Payton extremely conservative with his

1273
00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:57,200
Speaker 7: game plan, and not only did he handcuff his team,

1274
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:00,000
Speaker 7: you know, he handcuffed their opportunity to pull off the upside.

1275
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,480
Speaker 7: So I didn't think they could go into Buffalo and

1276
00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:04,040
Speaker 7: be able to win that game out right, But I

1277
00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:06,680
Speaker 7: definitely thought they could be a lot more competitive, especially

1278
00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,360
Speaker 7: given the way that they performed on that opening drive.

1279
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:12,160
Speaker 7: Pittsburgh Steelers kind of were the team that we thought

1280
00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 7: they were. I mean, you don't lose four games going

1281
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,760
Speaker 7: into the postseason because you're playing your best football, and

1282
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 7: they couldn't do much to slow down Derrick Henry. But

1283
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:21,520
Speaker 7: I would say a team that came in thinking that

1284
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:23,640
Speaker 7: they were probably going to have great opportunities to win

1285
00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:26,000
Speaker 7: have to be both the teams that were both minus three.

1286
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:28,840
Speaker 7: The Chargers get off to that six to nothing start

1287
00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 7: but are unable to create some separation, and the Texans

1288
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:33,360
Speaker 7: kind of played downhill in the second half, and then

1289
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:36,480
Speaker 7: of course the unfortunate miscues we saw at Baker Mayfield,

1290
00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:39,000
Speaker 7: the botched handoff with Jalen McMillan, whether it was a

1291
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 7: play action or something along those lines. And then of

1292
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 7: course Tampa having to settle for a field goal on

1293
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:45,800
Speaker 7: what was the second and short, and you thought they

1294
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 7: were going to get a fresh out of downs with

1295
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:48,880
Speaker 7: an opportunity to go up twenty four to twenty.

1296
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,560
Speaker 3: To tell me if I'm reading this right, one hour

1297
00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:55,080
Speaker 3: ago the Lions came out, had the Lions minus ten

1298
00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:57,960
Speaker 3: and a half over the Commanders. Now the Lions are

1299
00:59:58,000 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 3: eight and a half over the Commanders of the drop

1300
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:01,840
Speaker 3: two or is that just a different line.

1301
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 7: No, it's some different books with stronger opinions than others.

1302
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:07,240
Speaker 7: We did Season ten and a half to open there,

1303
01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 7: but a larger book out here in the desert with

1304
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 7: major market influence opened significantly shorter in at eight and

1305
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:15,080
Speaker 7: a half nine range. So typically what will happen is,

1306
01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:17,000
Speaker 7: even if you don't have a strong opinion and you

1307
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:19,160
Speaker 7: have the opportunity to grab an underdog plus ten and

1308
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,080
Speaker 7: a half, you bet that game now and figure out

1309
01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:22,880
Speaker 7: what to do with it a little bit later. We'll

1310
01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 7: see where the number settles. But I think No Man's

1311
01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:27,560
Speaker 7: Land kind of the perfect pricing, tough turnaround for the

1312
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:30,520
Speaker 7: Commanders on a short week, playing yet another road game

1313
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:32,680
Speaker 7: and which will be their third in as many weeks

1314
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:35,120
Speaker 7: against a rested Lions team that should be trending up

1315
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:38,040
Speaker 7: with their overall defensive health. And I think Tampa left

1316
01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:40,080
Speaker 7: a lot of points out there, somethings the Lions aren't

1317
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:42,200
Speaker 7: going to do with multiple weeks to prepare for this defense.

1318
01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:44,800
Speaker 2: Listen, I'm not trying to change this and make this

1319
01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:47,880
Speaker 2: about the team in your city, Todd, but I feel

1320
01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:51,960
Speaker 2: like the Raiders are making moves kind of like Washington.

1321
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:54,480
Speaker 2: In other words, the Commanders get a new owner in

1322
01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:57,920
Speaker 2: there and everything changes. Mark Davis isn't going anywhere, but

1323
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:00,760
Speaker 2: I feel like he's finally I don't know, is kind

1324
01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:02,480
Speaker 2: of say, Listen, I got Tom Brady here, I got

1325
01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:05,280
Speaker 2: a lot of smart people. There's new owners that are involved,

1326
01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:08,000
Speaker 2: Richard Seymour as a part of it. Are the Raiders

1327
01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 2: actually going to do something smart in this coaching cycle

1328
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:12,760
Speaker 2: or am I just getting my hopes up for no reason?

1329
01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, we'll see if they can lure the right coaching

1330
01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:17,720
Speaker 7: candidate there. I mean, they parted ways of the Antonio

1331
01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:19,600
Speaker 7: Pierce early last week. I think it was a little

1332
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:21,760
Speaker 7: bit more of a surprise that they ended up going

1333
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:24,960
Speaker 7: in a different direction and firing Tom Teleasco a few

1334
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,680
Speaker 7: days later. So you're kind of building this operation from

1335
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:29,440
Speaker 7: the ground floor up, and it's a question of do

1336
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,520
Speaker 7: you bring in a general manager, do you bring in

1337
01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:33,120
Speaker 7: a head coach or do you bring in the head

1338
01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 7: coach first, followed by a general manager, and then of

1339
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:38,560
Speaker 7: course have to identify the strengths and weaknesses on the roster.

1340
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 7: The most notable glaring need for them is to figure

1341
01:01:41,160 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 7: out who their franchise quarterback is going to be, whether

1342
01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:46,520
Speaker 7: it's acquiring somebody in the draft by trading up or

1343
01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 7: maybe looking to bring in a veteran that can hold

1344
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:50,560
Speaker 7: down the four for a year or two until they

1345
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:53,320
Speaker 7: identify someone that they think can be that face of

1346
01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:55,560
Speaker 7: the Silver and Black organization going forward.

1347
01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:59,280
Speaker 3: Right now Ohio State. Note for Dave Fizzel, there's got

1348
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,160
Speaker 3: to be tons of one coming in on that one dot,

1349
01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 3: is it not or.

1350
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,120
Speaker 7: What there will be? But keep in mind we have

1351
01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:06,520
Speaker 7: more than a week for a kickoff of that game,

1352
01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:10,280
Speaker 7: So instead of the college football playoffs kicking off an

1353
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:13,000
Speaker 7: NFL weekend, that'll kind of be the final leg that

1354
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:15,479
Speaker 7: people will tie a out of their parlays into next

1355
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:17,680
Speaker 7: weekend when you get two NFL games on Saturday too,

1356
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:20,880
Speaker 7: on Sunday and Monday night providing the Notre Dame Ohio

1357
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:24,480
Speaker 7: State National Championship. So college games don't typically get bet

1358
01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:27,120
Speaker 7: seven or eight days out by the general public. They'll

1359
01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:28,880
Speaker 7: start to get involved as we get much closer to

1360
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 7: the weekend.

1361
01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:32,919
Speaker 2: Notre Dame keeps finding ways. Ohio State's been the best team.

1362
01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 2: And when I say Notre Dame keeps finding ways, it's

1363
01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:37,680
Speaker 2: not a knock. It's that they're a good football team, man.

1364
01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:39,760
Speaker 2: And I don't know that we got the two best

1365
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:42,360
Speaker 2: teams consistently in college football this year. But I'll say

1366
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:44,800
Speaker 2: this much, Todd. I'm excited to see them go out.

1367
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:47,120
Speaker 2: I thought the semi finals were awesome, and I've I've

1368
01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:48,880
Speaker 2: brought this up a lot, and it's a statement of

1369
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:52,320
Speaker 2: captain obvious, but I think college football really needed two

1370
01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:54,680
Speaker 2: games like we got in the semi finals. You got

1371
01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,280
Speaker 2: two competitive, fun football games, and you hadn't really had

1372
01:02:57,280 --> 01:02:58,480
Speaker 2: those in the playoffs this year.

1373
01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:02,120
Speaker 7: No, it was of a silver lining for a playoffs

1374
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:04,560
Speaker 7: that had been anti climacticant to your point, Chris, a

1375
01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:07,200
Speaker 7: lot of the favorites going out there and dominating, turning

1376
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:10,080
Speaker 7: these games into blowouts. So it was a good breath

1377
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:11,760
Speaker 7: of fresh air to have two games that kind of

1378
01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:14,080
Speaker 7: came down to the final minutes. And to your point,

1379
01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:16,439
Speaker 7: Notre Dame finding ways to execute. I mean they've gone

1380
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,000
Speaker 7: out there and instead of self distructing like some of

1381
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,960
Speaker 7: their opponents have made those plays that they need too late,

1382
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:24,640
Speaker 7: whether they're on the offense or defensive side. And Ohio

1383
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:26,440
Speaker 7: State has that gear that a lot of teams in

1384
01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:29,720
Speaker 7: college don't have. It seems that that regular season finale

1385
01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:32,040
Speaker 7: lost to Michigan has really provided the wake up call

1386
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 7: in credit Ohio State. Their offense didn't exactly click on

1387
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:37,880
Speaker 7: all cylinders against Texas. It was their defense coming up

1388
01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:40,520
Speaker 7: and making stops at key junctures where it looked like

1389
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:42,840
Speaker 7: the Scarlett and Gray had a chance to create some

1390
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:45,320
Speaker 7: separation early in that game, but we're done in by

1391
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 7: penalties allowed Texas to hang around and you know, some

1392
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 7: ill fated play calls, especially in a goal to go situation.

1393
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:52,880
Speaker 7: But I'm sure Steve Sarkisian, which he has a chance

1394
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:54,480
Speaker 7: to do, had a chance to do over again.

1395
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,560
Speaker 3: Don I love these prop beds. One guy was complaining

1396
01:03:57,560 --> 01:04:00,880
Speaker 3: he lost out on like a seventy thousand because he

1397
01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:04,280
Speaker 3: had jayde and Daniels over seventy yards rushing and he

1398
01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 3: had to take a knee the last or something to

1399
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,000
Speaker 3: that effect. He lost some yards on one of the

1400
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:11,600
Speaker 3: plays and he went by on the thirty six.

1401
01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:13,200
Speaker 2: The last play on the on the knee he took

1402
01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:15,240
Speaker 2: any Jeff Schwartz had brought it up that he took

1403
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,400
Speaker 2: the knee, so it put him under his rush total.

1404
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:22,120
Speaker 2: But they usually end up paying those out right, No,

1405
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 2: I mean they won't.

1406
01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 7: But look, Jane daniels rushing total wasn't seventy and a half.

1407
01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:29,400
Speaker 7: I mean, that's on, you know, a more aggressive payout

1408
01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:31,680
Speaker 7: that people are looking to try and ladder up. I mean,

1409
01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:34,280
Speaker 7: his over under for rushing yards was more in line

1410
01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:36,560
Speaker 7: in the forties. What I think was more interesting was

1411
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:39,160
Speaker 7: Jalen Hurts, who's rushing total actually opened thirty four and

1412
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 7: a half, got its high as thirty nine and a half.

1413
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:44,280
Speaker 7: Jalen Hurts takes that knee, ends up giving up a

1414
01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:46,080
Speaker 7: yard on the final play of the game between the

1415
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:50,560
Speaker 7: Eagles and excuse me, the Eagles and Packers earlier today,

1416
01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:53,000
Speaker 7: and it's what we always talk about the importance of

1417
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:54,920
Speaker 7: getting the best of the number, and you know, a

1418
01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:56,960
Speaker 7: yard here and a yard there typically can make the

1419
01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,120
Speaker 7: difference between having a winning day and a losing day.

1420
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,920
Speaker 7: For those folks to do this a little bit more seriously.

1421
01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:05,120
Speaker 2: He is Jalen Hurts the quarterback? Todd last question for me,

1422
01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:07,440
Speaker 2: is Jalen Hurts the quarterback that we trust the least

1423
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:08,640
Speaker 2: of the ones that are remaining.

1424
01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:11,600
Speaker 7: I mean, right now, you have some major questions that

1425
01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:15,440
Speaker 7: Eagles passing attack didn't exactly look dynamic or crisp against

1426
01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:17,720
Speaker 7: Green Bay. It was the Philadelphia defense that gave them

1427
01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:20,240
Speaker 7: the opportunity to win and be able to create that

1428
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:23,520
Speaker 7: level of separation. If Philadelphia can't run the football next

1429
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,000
Speaker 7: week against the winner of this Vikings Rams game, it's

1430
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:28,840
Speaker 7: going to post some major problems. But who knows the

1431
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:31,120
Speaker 7: potential to work off the rosta and maybe he'll be

1432
01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:33,040
Speaker 7: able to get on the same page. Good to see

1433
01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:37,080
Speaker 7: AJ Brown being a voracious reader on the sidelines, making

1434
01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:39,280
Speaker 7: sure that he can channel some of his inner motivations,

1435
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:41,720
Speaker 7: despite Jalen Hurts saying he's never seen Aj Brown with

1436
01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:44,080
Speaker 7: a book at any time in his professional career.

1437
01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:47,600
Speaker 3: By the way, you're jumping on Philadelphia over the winner

1438
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:50,320
Speaker 3: of the game, or are you going to take Minnesota or

1439
01:05:50,360 --> 01:05:50,880
Speaker 3: the Rams.

1440
01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:54,280
Speaker 7: It all depends on price. I mean, price is a determinant.

1441
01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:56,320
Speaker 7: If you told me the Philadelphia opened it a pick him,

1442
01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 7: I would making a case for Philly. If Philly opens,

1443
01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:00,520
Speaker 7: you know, is a three and a half point favorite.

1444
01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 7: Knowing these teams are going to have a short week

1445
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 7: in cross country travel, you know, multiple times in a

1446
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:06,880
Speaker 7: third straight road game for the Vikings, I'm probably not

1447
01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:09,400
Speaker 7: running to try and make a case for Minnesota. So

1448
01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 7: I'm very curious to see where not only that side opens,

1449
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:14,800
Speaker 7: but a total as well, given some of Philadelphia's potential

1450
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 7: shortcomings offensively that we've seen over the last couple of weeks.

1451
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 2: Hey, and before let's go, let me I don't want

1452
01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,160
Speaker 2: to besmirch the great name of Jeff Schwartz, but it

1453
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:25,080
Speaker 2: was the Jalen Hurts rushing total. He went under rushing

1454
01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:27,520
Speaker 2: by half the yard on the kneel, so that we.

1455
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:29,160
Speaker 7: Can get then we can get Jeff a hard time

1456
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:30,800
Speaker 7: than for not shopping around for the best of the

1457
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:34,560
Speaker 7: number that did happen to have over thirty four and

1458
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:36,800
Speaker 7: a half rushing yards. You got on that problem early

1459
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:39,960
Speaker 7: and didn't have it taken away or ripped away from

1460
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,479
Speaker 7: our clutches with that late knee where he only lost

1461
01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:44,320
Speaker 7: the yard. But look, I'm not going to look a

1462
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:45,920
Speaker 7: gift tors in them mouth because in the pass of

1463
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,920
Speaker 7: Patrick Mahomes, we've seen quarterbacks drop back and give up

1464
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,160
Speaker 7: three or four yards at minimum rather than just one

1465
01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:51,960
Speaker 7: yard like herbs.

1466
01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:54,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, good stuff is always taught. Have a great week,

1467
01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:55,400
Speaker 2: appreciate your insight.

1468
01:06:55,760 --> 01:06:58,080
Speaker 7: Always a pleasure, gents, Have a great week and can't

1469
01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:00,680
Speaker 7: wait to break down the conference finals and how the

1470
01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:02,320
Speaker 7: money has come in throughout the course of the league

1471
01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:04,840
Speaker 7: to the national championship when we're twenty four hours before kickoff.

1472
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 2: Thanks totally, Thanks Todd, and of course Todd you hear

1473
01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:11,960
Speaker 2: him with Mike and Jason they went Fridays here on

1474
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:17,720
Speaker 2: Fox Sports ratio. Yeah, here was this screw that up? Yeah,

1475
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,280
Speaker 2: because I saw it and I knew what you were talking.

1476
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:22,000
Speaker 3: About with Jaydon Daniels, I didn't know.

1477
01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:25,640
Speaker 2: But Schwartz, Jeff Schwartz said, Jalen Hurts goes under his

1478
01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:28,880
Speaker 2: rushing total by half the yard. On that meal, they

1479
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:31,600
Speaker 2: had already graded it a win, and the screenshot at

1480
01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 2: his bet, which was Jalen Hurts over thirty six and

1481
01:07:34,680 --> 01:07:37,520
Speaker 2: a half rushing yards and when he took the knee

1482
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 2: he went under that. So wow, all right, Steve Seger

1483
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:44,040
Speaker 2: is in to get us caught up on everything that's

1484
01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:45,960
Speaker 2: going on in the world of sports. What's up, Steve?

1485
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:48,040
Speaker 5: I can make that even worse. He didn't just lose

1486
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:52,320
Speaker 5: the yard. It was minus four on the kneel down. Oh,

1487
01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:55,040
Speaker 5: it's what made it a thirty seven yard field goal

1488
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:57,560
Speaker 5: the next play to win, as if that has any

1489
01:07:57,600 --> 01:08:01,360
Speaker 5: importance apparently in this conversation. Washington does win its playoff

1490
01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:04,200
Speaker 5: opener at Tampa Bay twenty three to twenty. Now, Jayden

1491
01:08:04,280 --> 01:08:08,000
Speaker 5: Daniels did become the first rookie in NFL history tonight

1492
01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:11,520
Speaker 5: to in a playoff win lead his team in passing

1493
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,720
Speaker 5: and in rushing yards because nobody was running the ball

1494
01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:18,120
Speaker 5: for the Commanders tonight, Daniels at thirteen carries thirty six

1495
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:23,160
Speaker 5: yards was their leading rusher Brian Robinson ten carries sixteen yards.

1496
01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:26,160
Speaker 5: But they do advance Saturday night Washington at one seed

1497
01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:29,519
Speaker 5: Detroit on Fox TV. By the way, Daniels when he

1498
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:32,040
Speaker 5: dropped back to pass on third and fourth downs tonight

1499
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:35,720
Speaker 5: nine completions eight of them for first downs. He had

1500
01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:38,640
Speaker 5: over one hundred yards passing and two touchdowns just on

1501
01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:43,280
Speaker 5: third and fourth down dropbacks, and most importantly the run

1502
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:47,559
Speaker 5: that set up the field goal. He was contacted behind

1503
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:51,400
Speaker 5: the line of scrimmage and still got another ten yards

1504
01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:54,400
Speaker 5: after contact to in the final minute of the game

1505
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:57,200
Speaker 5: convert a third and one and set up the winning kick,

1506
01:08:57,720 --> 01:08:59,000
Speaker 5: which hit the.

1507
01:08:59,000 --> 01:08:59,920
Speaker 3: Upright and went through.

1508
01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:03,799
Speaker 5: Unbelievable Zane Gonzalez three for three on field goals, including

1509
01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 5: a fifty two yarder earlier. This thirty seven yarder won it.

1510
01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:10,519
Speaker 5: The Washington franchise hadn't won a playoff game since the

1511
01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:13,519
Speaker 5: two thousand and five season, had been zero to five

1512
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:17,320
Speaker 5: since in the postseason. The Bucks are out. Green Bay's

1513
01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 5: out after losing at Philadelphia today twenty two to ten.

1514
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:24,519
Speaker 5: Denver finishes ten and eight after losing at Buffalo thirty

1515
01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:28,559
Speaker 5: one to seven. Next Sunday, Buffalo will host Baltimore. The

1516
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:31,680
Speaker 5: winner of tomorrow night's game Rams versus Vikings will go

1517
01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:35,040
Speaker 5: to Philadelphia next Sunday three pm Eastern Time, and the

1518
01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:38,120
Speaker 5: one seed Chiefs fifteen and two, who are off this weekend,

1519
01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:41,760
Speaker 5: will be hosting Houston on Saturday afternoon. The Patriots hired

1520
01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:44,240
Speaker 5: Mike Rabel as their new head coach. He led the

1521
01:09:44,240 --> 01:09:46,479
Speaker 5: Tennessee Titans for six years. He was Coach of the

1522
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:49,760
Speaker 5: Year in twenty twenty one. In women's basketball, Number one

1523
01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:53,040
Speaker 5: UCLA's home game was postponed due to the LA fires.

1524
01:09:53,080 --> 01:09:56,400
Speaker 5: Northwestern did not travel to Southern California, so they didn't

1525
01:09:56,400 --> 01:09:59,840
Speaker 5: play USC or UCLA this week. However, today number four

1526
01:10:00,040 --> 01:10:03,719
Speaker 5: rank USC downtown away from the problems, beat Penn State.

1527
01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:07,280
Speaker 5: UCLA women will be playing Wednesday against this Penn State

1528
01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:09,400
Speaker 5: team that is staying in town, but that game will

1529
01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:12,160
Speaker 5: be in Long Beach instead of it UCLA on campus

1530
01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:16,439
Speaker 5: because UCLA has no in person classes this week. Also,

1531
01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:20,360
Speaker 5: by the way, Number two South Carolina beat number five Texas.

1532
01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:21,559
Speaker 3: In the NBA late game.

1533
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:25,080
Speaker 5: Phoenix over Charlotte one twenty to one, thirteen Charlotte eight

1534
01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:28,720
Speaker 5: and twenty eight. This season, the Lakers and Clippers will

1535
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:32,400
Speaker 5: each resume their home schedules on Monday, after having games

1536
01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:36,080
Speaker 5: postponed in recent days due to the LA fires. NHL

1537
01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:39,040
Speaker 5: Anaheim won in overtime at Carolina. Vegas got a four

1538
01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:41,840
Speaker 5: to one win over Minnesota. Cocoa Golf took her first

1539
01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:44,800
Speaker 5: round match at the Australian Open. And a reminder for

1540
01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:48,000
Speaker 5: the NFL, your team opponents for next season are known

1541
01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 5: as soon as the regular season ends. The exact schedule

1542
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:53,960
Speaker 5: won't be coming out till about May, but we know

1543
01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:56,840
Speaker 5: for a fact that Buffalo, if you're a season ticket

1544
01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:59,719
Speaker 5: holder in their final year at that old stadium next year,

1545
01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:03,720
Speaker 5: Buffalo is going to be hosting Baltimore next season. Buffalo's

1546
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:07,080
Speaker 5: going to be hosting Kansas City next season, and Philadelphia

1547
01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:10,960
Speaker 5: and Tampa Bay the Kansas City home schedule, They're home

1548
01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:16,200
Speaker 5: to Detroit and Washington, and Philadelphia and Baltimore's at Kansas City.

1549
01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:20,759
Speaker 5: By the way, the Chargers will be hosting Philadelphia and Washington.

1550
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:24,120
Speaker 5: It's AFC West turn to play that division. Chargers will

1551
01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:26,479
Speaker 5: be hosting Pittsburgh and Minnesota as well.

1552
01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:28,320
Speaker 2: Back to you, thanks Steve, as we come to you

1553
01:11:28,360 --> 01:11:32,720
Speaker 2: live from thetiraq dot com studios. Yeah, that schedule for

1554
01:11:32,760 --> 01:11:35,439
Speaker 2: the Bills not easy though they looked really good to that.

1555
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:38,720
Speaker 2: I feel like I failed you tonight, Arnie because on

1556
01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:42,800
Speaker 2: the Roman numeral rundown. Yeah, Roman numerals one, two, three,

1557
01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:44,639
Speaker 2: and then I think four and five. We're all about

1558
01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:47,160
Speaker 2: just to recap in the games, and we really haven't

1559
01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:50,000
Speaker 2: taken a lot of time to dive into each individual

1560
01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 2: game kind of more general thoughts on each We just.

1561
01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:56,639
Speaker 3: Well one because Buffalo, really, what's there to really dive

1562
01:11:56,680 --> 01:11:58,720
Speaker 3: in for they got down seven, not thinking it was

1563
01:11:58,760 --> 01:12:00,400
Speaker 3: all Buffalo after that, Well.

1564
01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:02,519
Speaker 2: What really is there to dive into any of the

1565
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:04,320
Speaker 2: other games outside of the front of the finish of

1566
01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:05,000
Speaker 2: the Commanders and the.

1567
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:08,200
Speaker 3: Buccaney exactly exactly. I mean, there was a few things

1568
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:10,639
Speaker 3: to dive in with the Philadelphia game. One, I didn't

1569
01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:12,640
Speaker 3: think Jalen Hurts looked all that good. I don't know

1570
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:15,640
Speaker 3: if there was something wrong with him or obviously he

1571
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:18,280
Speaker 3: was coming back from that concussion, but he wasn't all

1572
01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:22,519
Speaker 3: that great the Green Bay offense. Also, Jordan Love with

1573
01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:25,680
Speaker 3: the three interceptions, it's just I mean, he had a

1574
01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 3: horrible game. I don't know if it was just one

1575
01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:30,920
Speaker 3: of those defensive battles or what, but both quarterbacks did

1576
01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:32,120
Speaker 3: not play well in that game at all.

1577
01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:40,120
Speaker 2: Chris Jordan Love had a crazy stat because he hadn't

1578
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:42,920
Speaker 2: thrown an interception in a minute and then all of

1579
01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:46,160
Speaker 2: a sudden today he just couldn't stop throwing interceptions. He

1580
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:49,519
Speaker 2: threw three of them, and I was trying to find

1581
01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:51,160
Speaker 2: the number here while you were saying it, But I

1582
01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:52,920
Speaker 2: want to say it was like a couple hundred passes

1583
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:55,559
Speaker 2: that he had thrown since he had an interception, right,

1584
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:58,559
Speaker 2: And I was listening to the broadcast and the announce

1585
01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:01,840
Speaker 2: it's been so many picks. There are so many games

1586
01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:05,720
Speaker 2: since he's thrown an interception. And then literally, Arnie, the

1587
01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:09,920
Speaker 2: very next play was an interception that and you know

1588
01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:11,040
Speaker 2: in the other games.

1589
01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:15,360
Speaker 3: The games on Saturday wasn't so much about the Texans

1590
01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:19,000
Speaker 3: and Baltimore winning. It was more about the disappointments of

1591
01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:22,120
Speaker 3: the Chargers in Pittsburgh. I think, at least that's in

1592
01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:24,840
Speaker 3: my opinion. I think more people are looking at what

1593
01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:28,040
Speaker 3: Justin Herbert looked awful. The Chargers got out to that

1594
01:13:28,439 --> 01:13:31,760
Speaker 3: early lead, and they did nothing after that, and they

1595
01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:33,880
Speaker 3: couldn't even convert it on a touchdown. It was two

1596
01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:36,519
Speaker 3: field goals. Pittsburgh got down twenty one to nothing at

1597
01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:40,320
Speaker 3: a half time. Never really you thought they were gonna

1598
01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:43,240
Speaker 3: win the game at all, and people were questioning if

1599
01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:44,920
Speaker 3: Tom woid should come back, what they're gonna do about

1600
01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:48,760
Speaker 3: the quarterback situation. I think more disappointment in those two

1601
01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:51,840
Speaker 3: games than positive with the Texans in Baltimore.

1602
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:54,960
Speaker 2: When we come back to the tyrack dot Com studios,

1603
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:58,240
Speaker 2: there's numbers and notes to catch up on, and Di

1604
01:13:58,320 --> 01:14:00,759
Speaker 2: Saga has them all next right here on five Sports Radio.

1605
01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:04,320
Speaker 2: It's already in play, coming to you live from the

1606
01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:07,320
Speaker 2: tire rock dot Com studios. Patrick Sweaker running the show

1607
01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:10,479
Speaker 2: along with Mary Mack, who's back, and of course Steve

1608
01:14:10,560 --> 01:14:13,280
Speaker 2: des Seger, who comes strolling in with all the numbers

1609
01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:13,799
Speaker 2: and notes.

1610
01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:14,759
Speaker 3: What's going on, Steve.

1611
01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:16,920
Speaker 5: The Jordan Love stad by the way, is that he

1612
01:14:16,960 --> 01:14:19,440
Speaker 5: had not thrown an interception since mid November.

1613
01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:20,599
Speaker 2: That's it, thank you, sir.

1614
01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:23,720
Speaker 5: That is seven plus games, maybe two hundred passes and

1615
01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:27,639
Speaker 5: then three interceptions thrown at Philadelphia in the season's over today.

1616
01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:30,400
Speaker 5: And remember the Packers fumbled the opening kickoff as well,

1617
01:14:30,920 --> 01:14:32,720
Speaker 5: and also in the first half, Green Bay had a

1618
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:34,880
Speaker 5: seven and a half minute drive and got no points

1619
01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 5: out of that because of the missed shortfield goal. More

1620
01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:39,840
Speaker 5: on that in a moment, but I will say that

1621
01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:43,559
Speaker 5: Jordan Love when he actually had to throw downfield today,

1622
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:45,800
Speaker 5: the next gen stat is when he had passes of

1623
01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:48,800
Speaker 5: at least ten air yards as they call it. He

1624
01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:51,600
Speaker 5: was three of eleven passing with three interceptions.

1625
01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 3: It's not good.

1626
01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:53,960
Speaker 2: So no, it just wasn't there.

1627
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:56,439
Speaker 3: And I think technically six of eleven right.

1628
01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:59,559
Speaker 5: With three, Yeah, six were completed, three to his team

1629
01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:02,559
Speaker 5: and to the other team. You are absolutely correct. But

1630
01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:05,280
Speaker 5: then we saw a rookie quarterback who got to win.

1631
01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:08,160
Speaker 5: So we haven't had that in over a decade, a

1632
01:15:08,240 --> 01:15:11,720
Speaker 5: rookie quarterback winning a road playoff start. It had not

1633
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:15,559
Speaker 5: happened since Russell Wilson twenty twelve. It happened with Mark Sanchez,

1634
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:19,200
Speaker 5: Joe Flacco is rookies just before that. But the amazing

1635
01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:22,679
Speaker 5: thing tonight, Stats Inc. Is saying here we had Washington tonight,

1636
01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:26,920
Speaker 5: no turnovers and no punts in this game behind a

1637
01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:30,799
Speaker 5: rookie starting quarterback. They say playoffs are not In NFL

1638
01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:33,680
Speaker 5: history with a rookie starting quarterback, there have only been

1639
01:15:33,800 --> 01:15:36,840
Speaker 5: three instances of a team having no turnovers no punts

1640
01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:40,120
Speaker 5: for an entire game. All three are with Jayden Daniels

1641
01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:43,639
Speaker 5: this year, crazy tonight, geez, and twice early in the season.

1642
01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:47,519
Speaker 5: That is amazing, amazing. More on the Philadelphia win, because

1643
01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:50,599
Speaker 5: keep in mind, Philly is going to be home to

1644
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:54,160
Speaker 5: whoever wins that Vikings Rams matchup tomorrow night. That Philadelphia

1645
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:56,559
Speaker 5: home game will be next Sunday, three pm Eastern time.

1646
01:15:56,640 --> 01:16:00,240
Speaker 5: Saquon Barkley today had one hundred nineteen yards rushing. Land

1647
01:16:00,280 --> 01:16:02,519
Speaker 5: Hurts was back from being you know, for a long

1648
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,960
Speaker 5: time in concussion protocol. He had two touchdown passes. Philly

1649
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:08,160
Speaker 5: hit three short field goals. So a game where aj

1650
01:16:08,320 --> 01:16:11,160
Speaker 5: Brown has one catch twenty two to ten was the

1651
01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:15,040
Speaker 5: largely dominant final over the Packers, who finish up eleven

1652
01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:17,439
Speaker 5: and seven this year. Josh Jacobs did have eighty one

1653
01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:20,960
Speaker 5: yards rushing and a TD today. He had three receptions

1654
01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:24,240
Speaker 5: forty yards as well. Philadelphia led sixteen to three to

1655
01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:26,679
Speaker 5: start the fourth quarter. As far as the injuries, wide

1656
01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:29,479
Speaker 5: receiver Christian Watson of Green Bay with the bad knee,

1657
01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:33,520
Speaker 5: was out, and wide receiver Romeo Dobbs left with another concussion.

1658
01:16:33,760 --> 01:16:36,360
Speaker 5: Wide receiver Jaden Reed left with a shoulder injury.

1659
01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:38,000
Speaker 3: But they weren't left.

1660
01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:40,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, they there, you're correct, But there wasn't anything going

1661
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:43,880
Speaker 5: on on offense even before that. Remember, the Eagles had

1662
01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:46,920
Speaker 5: faced the Packers in Brazil in the week one opener

1663
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:49,360
Speaker 5: for him and beat the Packers by five, then beat

1664
01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:52,880
Speaker 5: him in the playoffs here. Philadelphia is the number one

1665
01:16:52,960 --> 01:16:55,720
Speaker 5: rushing team in the NFC. That's who the Rams or

1666
01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:58,599
Speaker 5: Vikings are going to match up against. The Eagles had

1667
01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:02,120
Speaker 5: the top ranked defense in the entire league easily this year,

1668
01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:04,840
Speaker 5: allowing under two hundred and eighty total yards per game.

1669
01:17:04,880 --> 01:17:08,439
Speaker 5: They only allowed eighteen points a game and gave up ten. Today,

1670
01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:11,040
Speaker 5: the Packers season is over. They had just ended the

1671
01:17:11,080 --> 01:17:13,960
Speaker 5: regular season losing that game at home to Chicago fifty

1672
01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,519
Speaker 5: one yard field goal on the final play. They are

1673
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:19,320
Speaker 5: now done. One note on injuries for the Eagles. Linebacker

1674
01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:22,519
Speaker 5: Nakobe Dean left today with a knee injury. The Buffalo

1675
01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:25,200
Speaker 5: home game was a win over Denver thirty one to seven.

1676
01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:28,439
Speaker 5: Josh Allen two touchdown passes. In fact, he was twenty

1677
01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:31,240
Speaker 5: of twenty six two hundred and seventy two yards and

1678
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:34,639
Speaker 5: on the ground eight carries forty six yards rushing. Time

1679
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:38,120
Speaker 5: of possession. I'll say it was in Buffalo's favorite nearly

1680
01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:39,840
Speaker 5: forty two minutes to eighteen.

1681
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:40,840
Speaker 3: It was incredible.

1682
01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:43,559
Speaker 5: They didn't have an answer for the run game man Denver, remember,

1683
01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:46,160
Speaker 5: had the long touchdown pass and the opening minutes didn't

1684
01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:49,040
Speaker 5: score at all. After that for Gus after thirty one

1685
01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:51,120
Speaker 5: seven the final. Granted it was only ten to seven

1686
01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:53,799
Speaker 5: at the half, but thirty one seven the final. James

1687
01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:56,080
Speaker 5: Cook one hundred and twenty yards rushing and a TD

1688
01:17:56,240 --> 01:17:57,360
Speaker 5: three short field.

1689
01:17:57,120 --> 01:17:57,920
Speaker 3: Goals for the Bills.

1690
01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:01,479
Speaker 5: Buffalo the two seed in the after and they're hosting

1691
01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:05,400
Speaker 5: Baltimore next Sunday, the delicious matchup of the Divisional Round.

1692
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:09,120
Speaker 5: Because just this past week, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was

1693
01:18:09,200 --> 01:18:12,759
Speaker 5: voted All Pro ahead of Josh Allen thirty votes to eighteen.

1694
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:16,080
Speaker 5: Who's going to win the MVP? Well, I believe it's

1695
01:18:16,120 --> 01:18:19,000
Speaker 5: the exact same AP panel of fifty voters that votes

1696
01:18:19,040 --> 01:18:22,800
Speaker 5: on MVP on NFL Honors Night, so perhaps this may

1697
01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:25,320
Speaker 5: have been an indication. We'll see in late September. These

1698
01:18:25,360 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 5: two teams did meet. Baltimore dominated thirty five to ten.

1699
01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:31,960
Speaker 5: This is a Buffalo team that's undefeated at home nine

1700
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:33,800
Speaker 5: to zero. They won the AFC East for a fifth

1701
01:18:33,800 --> 01:18:36,040
Speaker 5: straight season, and now they're in the Divisional Round for

1702
01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:38,840
Speaker 5: a fifth straight year. I will say Denver at least

1703
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:41,439
Speaker 5: got to the playoffs. They qualified for the postseason for

1704
01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:43,880
Speaker 5: the first time since twenty fifteen, got there with a

1705
01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:46,840
Speaker 5: rookie quarterback. They got the final playoff spot with that

1706
01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:49,799
Speaker 5: shutout of whatever Kansas City put on the field less.

1707
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:51,360
Speaker 2: Time for yeah.

1708
01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:53,599
Speaker 5: And then this season on the defense, they only allowed

1709
01:18:53,640 --> 01:18:55,640
Speaker 5: eighteen points a game. That was third best in the

1710
01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:58,040
Speaker 5: league and they mentioned it today. The Denver defense was

1711
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:00,479
Speaker 5: number one in the whole league in sacks. There is

1712
01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:04,360
Speaker 5: something there, but it's Buffalo that advance. And they average

1713
01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:07,240
Speaker 5: thirty one points a game this year, best in the AFC.

1714
01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:10,880
Speaker 5: They scored thirty one points today. Turnovers are always so

1715
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:14,040
Speaker 5: important in football games, and the Bill's turnover margin was

1716
01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:16,920
Speaker 5: easily the best in the entire NFL this year. They

1717
01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:20,240
Speaker 5: were a plus twenty four on turnovers. And also, and

1718
01:19:20,280 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 5: they mentioned this today, the Bills were the first team

1719
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:24,599
Speaker 5: in NFL history to have a season where they had

1720
01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:27,479
Speaker 5: at least thirty touchdown passes and at least thirty rushing

1721
01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:31,240
Speaker 5: touchdowns in the same season. So they'll be a formidable foe.

1722
01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,920
Speaker 5: I love the Baltimore roster, just kind of like I

1723
01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:37,759
Speaker 5: love the Philadelphia roster. It hardly guarantees either of them

1724
01:19:37,960 --> 01:19:41,879
Speaker 5: getting to the Super Bowl. Saturday Night, Fox TV, Washington

1725
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:43,200
Speaker 5: at one seed Detroit.

1726
01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:43,400
Speaker 3: Here.

1727
01:19:43,400 --> 01:19:46,280
Speaker 5: The Washington run defense this season was among the worst

1728
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:49,240
Speaker 5: in the league and over one hundred yards rushing for

1729
01:19:49,280 --> 01:19:51,840
Speaker 5: Tampa Bay for what it's worth. But the Bucks are

1730
01:19:51,880 --> 01:19:54,400
Speaker 5: out and the Commanders have won six straight.

01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:43,519
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm pretty high on yeah, nine out of ten.

1748
01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:44,640
Speaker 3: I'm very pumped up.

1749
01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:44,720
Speaker 6: Of it.

1750
01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:46,240
Speaker 3: I'm excited. I'm ready to roll.

1751
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:48,800
Speaker 2: I was a little bit surprised to see how the

1752
01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:52,439
Speaker 2: number moved from a pick em to the Vikings as

1753
01:20:52,479 --> 01:20:54,280
Speaker 2: a two and a half point favorite based on the

1754
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:57,719
Speaker 2: venue move right, But I mean, listen, I'm not questioning

1755
01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:00,160
Speaker 2: the move by any stretch of the imagination, but I

1756
01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:01,480
Speaker 2: guess I was kind of surprised.

1757
01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:04,640
Speaker 3: That's not a big movie. When you lose home field advantage,

1758
01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:05,800
Speaker 3: it's three or more.

1759
01:21:05,960 --> 01:21:08,320
Speaker 2: So well, that's what I'm saying is I kind of

1760
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:12,000
Speaker 2: thought it might be more like four that would move

1761
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,240
Speaker 2: in favor of the fourteen and three team that has

1762
01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:17,360
Speaker 2: been the better team this year. I don't know. Maybe

1763
01:21:17,560 --> 01:21:19,360
Speaker 2: maybe the Rams have a better shot in this, and

1764
01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:20,360
Speaker 2: I'm giving them a chance.

1765
01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:24,559
Speaker 3: Maybe. I yeah, you know what, I like the Rams.

1766
01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:26,519
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a great game either way.

1767
01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:29,320
Speaker 3: I think this is gonna be the game tomorrow night

1768
01:21:29,360 --> 01:21:31,960
Speaker 3: like you saw today with Washington Tampa. Maybe a field

1769
01:21:31,960 --> 01:21:33,840
Speaker 3: goal at the end. I think it's gonna be a

1770
01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:35,640
Speaker 3: close one. We didn't get too many close ones. I

1771
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:38,320
Speaker 3: believe that Rams in Minnesota would be a good one.

1772
01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:41,080
Speaker 2: I did too, your choice, Arnie. We got a couple

1773
01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:43,120
Speaker 2: of Roman numerals that we could still hit or we

1774
01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:45,519
Speaker 2: could hear from the people here because we're getting we

1775
01:21:45,600 --> 01:21:46,760
Speaker 2: get a lot of tweets and night, a lot of

1776
01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:47,640
Speaker 2: people don't want to get h.

1777
01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:49,439
Speaker 3: By the way, why did you think I was hacked?

1778
01:21:49,479 --> 01:21:49,639
Speaker 4: Why?

1779
01:21:49,800 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 3: Why did you think I was hacked? In my I

1780
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:54,920
Speaker 3: was sending you stuff to your phone number, not to

1781
01:21:54,960 --> 01:21:57,920
Speaker 3: your Twitter or anything like that. Arnie, Let me tell

1782
01:21:57,920 --> 01:21:58,479
Speaker 3: you somebody.

1783
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:04,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've never given me investment advice in the ten

1784
01:22:04,160 --> 01:22:07,640
Speaker 2: to eleven years that we've done a show together, right, exactly,

1785
01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:11,639
Speaker 2: So when out of nowhere, and I've had a lot

1786
01:22:11,680 --> 01:22:15,120
Speaker 2: of these fake accounts that and the first thing they

1787
01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:19,920
Speaker 2: ask you whenever they you realize it's a fake, is hey,

1788
01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:23,760
Speaker 2: have you heard about blank? Right? So whenever you send me,

1789
01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:26,599
Speaker 2: it's like, hey, did ever I tell you about this?

1790
01:22:26,760 --> 01:22:29,559
Speaker 2: And then you proceed to send me eight tweets or

1791
01:22:29,560 --> 01:22:30,840
Speaker 2: eight texts.

1792
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:33,639
Speaker 3: About talking before that, we were tweet we were talking.

1793
01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:38,000
Speaker 2: You get hacked in everything somehow, some way, and I

1794
01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:41,440
Speaker 2: maybe you still have your number.

1795
01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:44,439
Speaker 3: I had no idea. First of all, there was something

1796
01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:46,919
Speaker 3: wrong with my Twitter account. I did have to unhack

1797
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:50,120
Speaker 3: it or something, but because it said I was locked out,

1798
01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:52,040
Speaker 3: and I gave Patrick the same thing. I'm not going

1799
01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:55,760
Speaker 3: to give the uh it's a crypto coin. I came

1800
01:22:55,800 --> 01:22:57,840
Speaker 3: across not going to give it out on the airs.

1801
01:22:57,840 --> 01:23:00,519
Speaker 3: I think that's illegal or something. I'm not sure what

1802
01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:01,040
Speaker 3: was funny.

1803
01:23:01,040 --> 01:23:03,160
Speaker 2: What was funny though, PARTI is even when I went

1804
01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:06,200
Speaker 2: to your I sent a direct message and I was like,

1805
01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:08,360
Speaker 2: do you think there's a chance your texts have been hacked?

1806
01:23:08,439 --> 01:23:11,320
Speaker 2: Or are you really fired up about cryptocurrency? And the

1807
01:23:11,439 --> 01:23:14,000
Speaker 2: very first thing was no, I get it. I saw

1808
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:16,639
Speaker 2: a news story on it, and then in there you said,

1809
01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:19,479
Speaker 2: Judy feels like the fix is on, and I was like, yeah,

1810
01:23:19,479 --> 01:23:21,280
Speaker 2: you're definitely, you're definitely hacked.

1811
01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:25,120
Speaker 3: I mistyped up, but no, I look, don't take my word.

1812
01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:27,439
Speaker 3: It's not that like I'm giving out this big advice

1813
01:23:27,479 --> 01:23:27,960
Speaker 3: on krypto.

1814
01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:28,639
Speaker 2: I know, I don't.

1815
01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:32,479
Speaker 3: All I said was take a thousand dollars right right,

1816
01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:36,200
Speaker 3: and you'll be happy because if this turns out to

1817
01:23:36,200 --> 01:23:38,200
Speaker 3: be like the next bitcoin, I want you to know.

1818
01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:39,759
Speaker 3: Patrick's like, you're.

1819
01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:40,839
Speaker 2: Gonna make me broke.

1820
01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 3: I go first, It's only it's only ae thousand dollars, okay,

1821
01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:48,120
Speaker 3: And if you took one thousand dollars and if this,

1822
01:23:48,479 --> 01:23:52,120
Speaker 3: if if it goes to where bitcoin went, your thousand

1823
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:56,080
Speaker 3: dollars would be worth thirty nine point five to three million,

1824
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:59,280
Speaker 3: So thirty nine million, five hundred and thirty thousand.

1825
01:23:59,360 --> 01:24:01,840
Speaker 2: I still think you were hacked by jee To. I

1826
01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:04,960
Speaker 2: will say this much. I have never seen in my

1827
01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:09,559
Speaker 2: life that kind of reaction from you on anything sports related,

1828
01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:13,400
Speaker 2: life related. You felt like you had a tip in

1829
01:24:13,479 --> 01:24:17,080
Speaker 2: the investment in world and I was with my wife.

1830
01:24:16,960 --> 01:24:17,719
Speaker 3: Not really a tip.

1831
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:20,400
Speaker 2: It's just you know, me using my brain. Right, you're

1832
01:24:20,520 --> 01:24:22,760
Speaker 2: using your brain. My wife goes, what is going on

1833
01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:27,280
Speaker 2: because my phone just hip gone ding ding ding ding.

1834
01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:31,080
Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't know, look at it. And she goes.

1835
01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:34,040
Speaker 2: She even said, she goes, I'm pretty sure Arnie got hacked.

1836
01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:39,759
Speaker 3: Like being smart, I appreciate advice.

1837
01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:43,519
Speaker 2: Geez, that's what I'm saying, thank you, Okay, that's I

1838
01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:46,479
Speaker 2: was just shocked by it. And these hackers have a

1839
01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:49,720
Speaker 2: way of getting everywhere. And when you send me eight

1840
01:24:49,800 --> 01:24:54,200
Speaker 2: straight texts about uh zrx or whatever it was, I

1841
01:24:54,240 --> 01:24:58,040
Speaker 2: automatically think somebody got Arnie's account. Somebody got Arnie. Right,

1842
01:24:58,040 --> 01:24:59,920
Speaker 2: he doesn't care that much about money. Come on, now,

1843
01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:02,960
Speaker 2: if it was your picks. You know, you went in

1844
01:25:03,040 --> 01:25:05,000
Speaker 2: and o one weekend and I didn't even get to

1845
01:25:05,040 --> 01:25:07,080
Speaker 2: that many texts from you. So I think you can

1846
01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:09,400
Speaker 2: understand why I might have questioned a few things there.

1847
01:25:09,439 --> 01:25:11,919
Speaker 3: All right, well if just take my advice and Patrick's

1848
01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:13,760
Speaker 3: not going to listen to me. Now, I wanted to

1849
01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:17,200
Speaker 3: go up just so I can become super super rich.

1850
01:25:17,600 --> 01:25:19,760
Speaker 3: So I could rub it in Patrick's face. I could

1851
01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:25,599
Speaker 3: just say, Okay, your big loser the way here, I'm

1852
01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:27,680
Speaker 3: not even talking about you know, because I'm not. I

1853
01:25:27,680 --> 01:25:30,240
Speaker 3: didn't even tell my financial advisor I'm doing this. I

1854
01:25:30,320 --> 01:25:32,800
Speaker 3: let him handle. I'm just doing this like on my own,

1855
01:25:32,920 --> 01:25:35,080
Speaker 3: just to have a little fun and invest a little

1856
01:25:35,080 --> 01:25:37,600
Speaker 3: bit of money in the crypto thing. If if I

1857
01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:41,880
Speaker 3: turned out to be right, well I'll be rich and

1858
01:25:41,920 --> 01:25:43,000
Speaker 3: I'll be grateful for you.

1859
01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:46,000
Speaker 2: So you're awake, and I apologize for questioning.

1860
01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:49,880
Speaker 3: You don't question me when it was and then it

1861
01:25:49,920 --> 01:25:52,720
Speaker 3: was my middle name is no, I don't what is it?

1862
01:25:52,800 --> 01:25:55,719
Speaker 3: Eff Hutton? Hutton? When people when when.

1863
01:25:56,200 --> 01:25:58,200
Speaker 2: I was going to ask is a crypto? Are any

1864
01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:03,200
Speaker 2: cryptos fanryto.

1865
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:03,360
Speaker 3: Nobody knows what button is anymore? That's all.

1866
01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:05,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's I know what it means.

1867
01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:08,759
Speaker 3: I was there with doing it, but button talks people listen.

1868
01:26:09,040 --> 01:26:11,360
Speaker 3: I mean I think everyone could get around anymore.

1869
01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:13,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it is. I think everyone could understand

1870
01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:16,000
Speaker 2: when all of a sudden I looked down and every

1871
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:18,360
Speaker 2: single one of them are about cryptocurrency. I'm like, I

1872
01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:19,400
Speaker 2: think Arnie got hacked.

1873
01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:19,880
Speaker 3: But thank you.

1874
01:26:20,160 --> 01:26:22,639
Speaker 2: I will definitely take that into considerate rank kids.

1875
01:26:22,640 --> 01:26:23,360
Speaker 3: Well, thank you.

1876
01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:25,599
Speaker 2: Well, I'm like you, I just don't have one thousand

1877
01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:26,679
Speaker 2: dollars laying around.

1878
01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:27,960
Speaker 3: I've got to, oh, stop it.

1879
01:26:28,160 --> 01:26:30,840
Speaker 2: I've got a daughter that spins every last penny that

1880
01:26:30,880 --> 01:26:33,439
Speaker 2: I have, so I've got that going for me. What

1881
01:26:33,600 --> 01:26:36,360
Speaker 2: was the what we learned, we'll get. We'll get text

1882
01:26:36,360 --> 01:26:38,040
Speaker 2: and tweets coming up in our next segment. We'll give

1883
01:26:38,040 --> 01:26:39,479
Speaker 2: you guys the rest of the show because it's all

1884
01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:41,760
Speaker 2: been really good. But I mean, we could take this

1885
01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:43,880
Speaker 2: from the college drinks, or you could add it to

1886
01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:47,479
Speaker 2: the NFL playoffs. So Artie, after this weekend, right, we

1887
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:50,160
Speaker 2: don't have to say six, week seven if you want

1888
01:26:50,160 --> 01:26:52,160
Speaker 2: to say, I guess in the NFL, this would technically

1889
01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:56,040
Speaker 2: be week nineteen if you want, after the wild card weekend,

1890
01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:59,040
Speaker 2: after the playoffs have reached the climax, if you will.

1891
01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:02,280
Speaker 2: In the world of college football, I know this. What

1892
01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:05,240
Speaker 2: have we learned over the first handful of games.

1893
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:07,280
Speaker 3: Well we learned is the cream does rise to the

1894
01:27:07,280 --> 01:27:09,280
Speaker 3: top when we get to the first round of the playoffs.

1895
01:27:09,320 --> 01:27:11,960
Speaker 3: And I did bring this up earlier. There are a

1896
01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:14,040
Speaker 3: few tweaks we're going to have to do. I think

1897
01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:15,880
Speaker 3: we'll have to go to eight teams. Nobody gets to

1898
01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:19,719
Speaker 3: buy week that way. It's one through waight two, seven, three, six, four, five.

1899
01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:22,720
Speaker 3: And winning the division doesn't give you a home game

1900
01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:27,519
Speaker 3: advantage over a team like in Minnesota, who had was

1901
01:27:27,560 --> 01:27:30,200
Speaker 3: it thirteen wins, twelve wins, thirteen wins? I'm not even sure.

1902
01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:32,680
Speaker 3: But if you win eight games, they win thirteen, you

1903
01:27:32,680 --> 01:27:35,599
Speaker 3: don't get a home game over them, So you get

1904
01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:39,960
Speaker 3: seated by where you are in wins. If it's a tiebreaker,

1905
01:27:40,360 --> 01:27:43,479
Speaker 3: then maybe you go to the division win or something

1906
01:27:43,560 --> 01:27:45,840
Speaker 3: like that. I think that's the fairest way. But that's

1907
01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:49,600
Speaker 3: just a small tweak there, Chris's that's nothing crazy. I

1908
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:52,960
Speaker 3: think the fans would actually enjoy something to that effect.

1909
01:27:53,200 --> 01:27:55,680
Speaker 2: But I think you would be the first one to

1910
01:27:55,760 --> 01:27:58,200
Speaker 2: admit it is a one to eighty from the way

1911
01:27:58,200 --> 01:27:58,960
Speaker 2: that you were thinking.

1912
01:27:59,320 --> 01:28:01,559
Speaker 3: Yes, not even sure Chris. If it even makes the

1913
01:28:01,560 --> 01:28:03,639
Speaker 3: games closer, I don't know. I think it makes the

1914
01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:05,719
Speaker 3: the first round any closer, does it? Maybe?

1915
01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:06,360
Speaker 2: And maybe not?

1916
01:28:06,800 --> 01:28:09,360
Speaker 3: Maybe the four or five game, But that's supposed to

1917
01:28:09,360 --> 01:28:12,320
Speaker 3: be the way it comes out to. That's that's going

1918
01:28:12,400 --> 01:28:14,400
Speaker 3: to be the closest game anyway. But other than that,

1919
01:28:14,400 --> 01:28:16,680
Speaker 3: it might not make it any any closer. And yes,

1920
01:28:17,120 --> 01:28:20,240
Speaker 3: it's it's a one eighty turn for me. I was like, Oh,

1921
01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,679
Speaker 3: let's reward the team that wins the division. But there's

1922
01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:26,320
Speaker 3: too many crappy divisions out there, and I'm getting tired

1923
01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:29,240
Speaker 3: of rewarding there's always like two or three now crappy

1924
01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:31,840
Speaker 3: the divisions. I'm getting tired of rewarding those guys.

1925
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:35,479
Speaker 2: I would also say that one of our I wouldn't

1926
01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:38,840
Speaker 2: even say fights is. I always thought that if you

1927
01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:41,639
Speaker 2: we had a couple of teams that made the playoffs

1928
01:28:41,680 --> 01:28:44,680
Speaker 2: with under five hundred records as division winners, right, I

1929
01:28:44,720 --> 01:28:47,160
Speaker 2: think I think Washington was actually the last team to

1930
01:28:47,240 --> 01:28:50,800
Speaker 2: do it. And I remember at that time your thought was, well,

1931
01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:52,400
Speaker 2: are we really going to lose our mind? As it

1932
01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:54,920
Speaker 2: really happened that awful when you have a division winner

1933
01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:57,880
Speaker 2: that is that bad or not at the level where

1934
01:28:57,880 --> 01:29:00,240
Speaker 2: they were, they're worthy of a home game. And I

1935
01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:02,200
Speaker 2: think now we've all kind of looked at it and said,

1936
01:29:02,840 --> 01:29:05,160
Speaker 2: all right, maybe it's okay to do something about it.

1937
01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:08,880
Speaker 2: To where if it's just seating everyone one through eight,

1938
01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:11,479
Speaker 2: I don't know everyone says division right.

1939
01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:14,200
Speaker 3: I don't think the matter. I don't think there's a

1940
01:29:14,240 --> 01:29:17,479
Speaker 3: big swallow of people saying we need to get that

1941
01:29:17,560 --> 01:29:20,120
Speaker 3: eighteen tho though I don't think anybody would be against it.

1942
01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:22,800
Speaker 2: Do division championships still matter?

1943
01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:25,960
Speaker 3: Not really?

1944
01:29:26,920 --> 01:29:30,439
Speaker 2: If I were to ask you what division you know?

1945
01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:33,639
Speaker 2: I think I compare it to sports a lot of times.

1946
01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:37,680
Speaker 2: If I were to say, hey, what division is Oklahoma

1947
01:29:37,720 --> 01:29:39,160
Speaker 2: City in? Would you even know.

1948
01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:41,479
Speaker 3: The name of the division?

1949
01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:42,520
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1950
01:29:42,920 --> 01:29:43,840
Speaker 3: Not off the top of them?

1951
01:29:43,880 --> 01:29:46,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, because it's point at the Northwest Division. What

1952
01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:48,799
Speaker 2: do you get in the NBA for winning a division?

1953
01:29:48,800 --> 01:29:53,160
Speaker 2: You don't get anything? But is that where the NFL

1954
01:29:53,240 --> 01:29:55,559
Speaker 2: needs to be? And a division is more of a

1955
01:29:55,600 --> 01:29:58,120
Speaker 2: scheduling thing than it is to say, oh, we won

1956
01:29:58,120 --> 01:30:00,880
Speaker 2: the AFC West, you still are the if West Chata

1957
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:03,800
Speaker 2: and it gets you a higher seated spot. But do

1958
01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:05,439
Speaker 2: we really need to put it where. Oh yeah, you

1959
01:30:05,439 --> 01:30:07,280
Speaker 2: get a home game if you win your division.

1960
01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:11,240
Speaker 3: It's NBA. Though, if you win the division, you get

1961
01:30:11,320 --> 01:30:15,280
Speaker 3: seated higher than the teams that don't. Though, don't you

1962
01:30:15,320 --> 01:30:16,800
Speaker 3: do you? I think you do.

1963
01:30:17,560 --> 01:30:18,200
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

1964
01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:20,439
Speaker 3: I have to double check on the way it was

1965
01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:23,720
Speaker 3: done last year. But the big difference is it's, you know,

1966
01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:26,559
Speaker 3: a best of five, best of seven, so you have

1967
01:30:26,600 --> 01:30:29,080
Speaker 3: always had a chance to come back in these one games.

1968
01:30:29,400 --> 01:30:31,920
Speaker 3: When you're going on the road. It's so difficult to

1969
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:34,640
Speaker 3: win on the road. That's why it makes all the

1970
01:30:34,680 --> 01:30:35,559
Speaker 3: difference in the world.

1971
01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:39,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so you're saying one to eighty in your mind,

1972
01:30:39,920 --> 01:30:43,080
Speaker 2: we're gonna do away with automatically getting a home game

1973
01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,360
Speaker 2: a home playoff game if you're a division champ, right.

1974
01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:50,320
Speaker 3: Only because recently we've had worse and worse divisions, I

1975
01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:52,840
Speaker 3: mean horrible, Like I still think the NFC South was

1976
01:30:52,880 --> 01:30:56,400
Speaker 3: a bad division, even though Tampa did win ten games. Buffalo,

1977
01:30:56,479 --> 01:30:59,640
Speaker 3: the AFC East was a bad division. But give the

1978
01:30:59,680 --> 01:31:02,600
Speaker 3: Bills credit for winning thirteen games this year. So I

1979
01:31:02,680 --> 01:31:04,400
Speaker 3: don't want to go ahead and punish them. You don't

1980
01:31:04,400 --> 01:31:07,200
Speaker 3: have to punish them because they won enough games.

1981
01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:10,559
Speaker 2: After the wild Card. I'm gonna stick with the NFL here.

1982
01:31:11,439 --> 01:31:15,679
Speaker 2: I know how many of you feel when it comes

1983
01:31:15,720 --> 01:31:18,880
Speaker 2: to Mike Tomlin. And as Ben Mahller has taught me,

1984
01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:22,439
Speaker 2: as we've sat here and talked a lot about this

1985
01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:25,280
Speaker 2: Bucks Commander's game tonight because it was the best game,

1986
01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:27,720
Speaker 2: but there really hasn't been a lot of juice to

1987
01:31:27,800 --> 01:31:31,519
Speaker 2: some of these other conversations tonight. Right, the story's always

1988
01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:33,680
Speaker 2: in the loser's locker room. And I think one of

1989
01:31:33,680 --> 01:31:36,240
Speaker 2: the biggest stories from the losing teams this week and

1990
01:31:36,360 --> 01:31:39,439
Speaker 2: is the future of Mike Tomlin, because I think all

1991
01:31:39,439 --> 01:31:43,000
Speaker 2: of us look at it and say, hey, you're gonna

1992
01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:45,599
Speaker 2: do something here Pittsburgh, because it seems as if it's

1993
01:31:46,240 --> 01:31:47,960
Speaker 2: I mean, is it fair to say it's kind of

1994
01:31:48,000 --> 01:31:51,559
Speaker 2: become predictable and almost, in a word, stale. And I know,

1995
01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:53,880
Speaker 2: I know some would say, what I want't supposed to

1996
01:31:53,880 --> 01:31:57,000
Speaker 2: be that good anyway, They're over underwin total was only

1997
01:31:57,040 --> 01:31:58,760
Speaker 2: eight and a half. Yeah, I get it. But when

1998
01:31:58,760 --> 01:32:02,040
Speaker 2: you're eight three, eight and two whatever they were, it's

1999
01:32:02,080 --> 01:32:07,639
Speaker 2: okay to change expectations. New information leads to new takes

2000
01:32:07,720 --> 01:32:09,680
Speaker 2: or whatever it is, right, I mean, you get a

2001
01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:12,759
Speaker 2: whole new set of actual facts to allow you to believe,

2002
01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:16,320
Speaker 2: oh yeah, this is different than the preseason line. It's

2003
01:32:16,320 --> 01:32:19,799
Speaker 2: hard to complain about ten and seven back to back seasons,

2004
01:32:20,080 --> 01:32:23,719
Speaker 2: but there is one undeniable fact, Arnie. They haven't won

2005
01:32:23,800 --> 01:32:26,320
Speaker 2: a playoff game since twenty sixteen.

2006
01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:28,479
Speaker 3: Usually, when you lose five games end of the year,

2007
01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:31,240
Speaker 3: not when the playoff games is twenty sixteen, the coach

2008
01:32:31,320 --> 01:32:32,320
Speaker 3: is usually gone.

2009
01:32:32,880 --> 01:32:35,800
Speaker 2: But I don't think that's the right move in Pittsburgh.

2010
01:32:36,120 --> 01:32:39,040
Speaker 2: I like what Matt verd Am said earlier. Now, I

2011
01:32:39,080 --> 01:32:41,240
Speaker 2: don't feel like they need to completely tear it all

2012
01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:44,240
Speaker 2: down in Pittsburgh. I mean, yeah, and they finished ten

2013
01:32:44,280 --> 01:32:47,559
Speaker 2: and seven, but their ultimate goal is a Super Bowl?

2014
01:32:47,640 --> 01:32:47,920
Speaker 3: Right?

2015
01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:52,759
Speaker 2: So are we thinking that we saw Mike Tomlin coaches

2016
01:32:52,840 --> 01:32:54,960
Speaker 2: last game in Pittsburgh, and is that the right move

2017
01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:56,760
Speaker 2: for the Steelers? I don't think so.

2018
01:32:56,880 --> 01:32:58,200
Speaker 3: What do you know, I don't think so. I don't

2019
01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:01,040
Speaker 3: think he's going to be fired at all. I don't either.

2020
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:04,000
Speaker 2: I think they can trade him. I'm sure that you could. Now,

2021
01:33:04,040 --> 01:33:06,360
Speaker 2: if somebody calls you and says we want Mike Tomlin,

2022
01:33:06,560 --> 01:33:08,360
Speaker 2: we'll give you two first round picks, I think you

2023
01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:09,080
Speaker 2: need to listen to that.

2024
01:33:09,240 --> 01:33:11,400
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, but that's not cool.

2025
01:33:11,439 --> 01:33:13,360
Speaker 2: I don't think anyone's gonna give up too first.

2026
01:33:13,560 --> 01:33:17,320
Speaker 3: Piggybacking on that, I guess one and done is okay

2027
01:33:17,479 --> 01:33:20,840
Speaker 3: with a couple of teams with coaching, right if if

2028
01:33:20,840 --> 01:33:24,040
Speaker 3: they want somebody else, one year's enough to decide they

2029
01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:25,320
Speaker 3: want to go ahead and move on. Is that that

2030
01:33:25,479 --> 01:33:26,680
Speaker 3: Rikers or what I was?

2031
01:33:26,800 --> 01:33:29,400
Speaker 2: I was really surprised. We sat here last week as

2032
01:33:29,400 --> 01:33:32,080
Speaker 2: the drawn Mayo news broke, and I was really surprised

2033
01:33:32,080 --> 01:33:35,200
Speaker 2: that he didn't get another year. I was actually kind

2034
01:33:35,240 --> 01:33:38,280
Speaker 2: of shocked that Antonio Peers they let him go through

2035
01:33:38,280 --> 01:33:39,519
Speaker 2: that Monday press conference.

2036
01:33:39,520 --> 01:33:41,320
Speaker 3: That was a bigger shock to me than anything.

2037
01:33:41,560 --> 01:33:44,000
Speaker 2: Well, because they didn't fire him on Black Monday. You know,

2038
01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:45,800
Speaker 2: they let him go out there and face the music

2039
01:33:45,840 --> 01:33:48,439
Speaker 2: and talk about the future. But then he was fired

2040
01:33:48,920 --> 01:33:51,080
Speaker 2: and you think, all right, well Tom Telesco's sticking around,

2041
01:33:51,120 --> 01:33:54,800
Speaker 2: Well he's done on Thursday and he's fired. So uh one,

2042
01:33:54,840 --> 01:33:59,160
Speaker 2: and I don't you had more than one with Piers

2043
01:33:59,160 --> 01:34:03,120
Speaker 2: because he you'd have an opportunity as the interim coach.

2044
01:34:03,200 --> 01:34:07,240
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be semantics guy here, but yess

2045
01:34:08,240 --> 01:34:10,200
Speaker 2: if you know, you know I guess right, And do.

2046
01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:12,000
Speaker 3: You want Dion? By the way, I don't think you ever.

2047
01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:14,400
Speaker 2: No, No, I think I think that if you.

2048
01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:17,120
Speaker 3: If you had Shador, would you want to Yes? No,

2049
01:34:17,160 --> 01:34:19,160
Speaker 3: I know, No, No.

2050
01:34:19,320 --> 01:34:21,439
Speaker 2: Why deon an offensive coordinator?

2051
01:34:23,280 --> 01:34:24,880
Speaker 3: Do you know? Because it's the sun?

2052
01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:27,320
Speaker 2: So what do I want you to coach my hockey

2053
01:34:27,360 --> 01:34:28,639
Speaker 2: team if she's my goalie?

2054
01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:30,000
Speaker 3: No?

2055
01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:32,280
Speaker 2: I think. I think Dion Sanders is going to end

2056
01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:34,840
Speaker 2: up being a fine coach at whatever level he wants to.

2057
01:34:34,920 --> 01:34:36,960
Speaker 2: But I don't feel like I need to go get

2058
01:34:37,040 --> 01:34:40,000
Speaker 2: him just because I got a son. I mean, is

2059
01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:42,240
Speaker 2: that something you're thinking is a necessity here?

2060
01:34:42,360 --> 01:34:42,479
Speaker 4: No?

2061
01:34:42,560 --> 01:34:45,080
Speaker 3: I I just thought, well, first of all, it seemed

2062
01:34:45,080 --> 01:34:47,639
Speaker 3: like that was the hot rumor out there until Pro

2063
01:34:47,680 --> 01:34:50,680
Speaker 3: Football Talk put out that that the Raiders have no

2064
01:34:50,760 --> 01:34:53,040
Speaker 3: interest in Dion Sanders. Well, I'm not sure.

2065
01:34:53,080 --> 01:34:55,800
Speaker 2: Let's make sure. Let's make sure we get this right.

2066
01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:56,280
Speaker 1: Bro.

2067
01:34:56,320 --> 01:34:58,559
Speaker 2: Football Talk a bit of an aggregator at times. That's

2068
01:34:58,600 --> 01:35:01,880
Speaker 2: Vinnie bon Signor, who covers the Raiders. Rosas Vegas had

2069
01:35:01,960 --> 01:35:05,600
Speaker 2: reported that Dion has interest in Vegas, and it was

2070
01:35:05,680 --> 01:35:08,439
Speaker 2: Victafer from the Athletic who said the Raiders have no

2071
01:35:08,560 --> 01:35:11,519
Speaker 2: interest in one coach. Prime it seems as if the

2072
01:35:11,600 --> 01:35:13,960
Speaker 2: Raiders are pretty hell bent on Ben Johnson, and if

2073
01:35:13,960 --> 01:35:15,960
Speaker 2: they don't get Ben Johnson, it's going to be Pete Carroll.

2074
01:35:16,160 --> 01:35:17,559
Speaker 2: And I'm not gonna lie to you. I don't have

2075
01:35:17,600 --> 01:35:19,280
Speaker 2: a problem with either one of those guys, aren't he?

2076
01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:19,439
Speaker 4: Well?

2077
01:35:19,479 --> 01:35:21,639
Speaker 3: I think Pete's too all he is time.

2078
01:35:21,760 --> 01:35:24,400
Speaker 2: Oh wow, what an agist you are, Jess.

2079
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:27,439
Speaker 3: I know. Well, then who are the Bears going to hire?

2080
01:35:27,479 --> 01:35:27,679
Speaker 4: Then?

2081
01:35:28,600 --> 01:35:33,240
Speaker 3: I Marcus Freeman, are you really believe that? Huh? Yeah?

2082
01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:36,559
Speaker 3: Why not? Why not? Why not? Why not?

2083
01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:40,200
Speaker 2: Can I throw one more here real quick? After the

2084
01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:43,040
Speaker 2: wild card weekend, I got sucked into the belief that

2085
01:35:43,080 --> 01:35:46,120
Speaker 2: the Texans can do something, So I need you to

2086
01:35:46,120 --> 01:35:48,360
Speaker 2: slap it out of me. Will you please remind me

2087
01:35:48,439 --> 01:35:50,719
Speaker 2: that it wasn't really all about what the Texans did

2088
01:35:51,240 --> 01:35:54,760
Speaker 2: and more about what Justin Herbert didn't with his four interceptions.

2089
01:35:54,920 --> 01:35:57,760
Speaker 2: Now credit, he was also sacked four times, and Will

2090
01:35:57,800 --> 01:36:01,200
Speaker 2: Anderson took over that game for a while. But I'm

2091
01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:04,240
Speaker 2: talking crazy right here. If I'm thinking the Texans have

2092
01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:06,599
Speaker 2: a chance next week against Kansas City.

2093
01:36:06,400 --> 01:36:08,240
Speaker 3: You are talking crazy. But I thought the same thing

2094
01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:10,040
Speaker 3: to myself when I was getting ready to write down

2095
01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:12,040
Speaker 3: my picks, and I was saying to myself, if the

2096
01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:16,120
Speaker 3: Texans play like they did today against Kansas City, hey,

2097
01:36:16,160 --> 01:36:19,200
Speaker 3: I'll take the eight, nine, ten points, whatever it is.

2098
01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:22,720
Speaker 3: That's going to be a close game, considering, you know,

2099
01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:26,400
Speaker 3: Kansas City could be rusty. Their offense hasn't clicked on

2100
01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:30,439
Speaker 3: all cylinders. And then I'm like, nah, stop it, come on,

2101
01:36:30,479 --> 01:36:31,960
Speaker 3: what are you doing, man? What are you doing?

2102
01:36:32,240 --> 01:36:34,559
Speaker 2: Any anything else you want to add before we give

2103
01:36:34,600 --> 01:36:37,200
Speaker 2: it to the tweeters when we come back to the program.

2104
01:36:37,439 --> 01:36:40,360
Speaker 3: Lots of tweets out there, we got tons. I don't

2105
01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:41,960
Speaker 3: think we're going to get to nearly as many that

2106
01:36:42,040 --> 01:36:42,679
Speaker 3: came in.

2107
01:36:42,720 --> 01:36:44,280
Speaker 2: All right, So you don't have anything else you want

2108
01:36:44,320 --> 01:36:46,000
Speaker 2: to add from what you learned on Wildcard weekend.

2109
01:36:46,200 --> 01:36:49,000
Speaker 3: I just thought it was boring. We only had one

2110
01:36:49,040 --> 01:36:51,400
Speaker 3: good game. I was disappointed, to be honest with you,

2111
01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:54,240
Speaker 3: more than anything. You know how much I love those

2112
01:36:54,280 --> 01:36:57,200
Speaker 3: close games and last second field goals. And I was

2113
01:36:57,280 --> 01:36:59,960
Speaker 3: let down, let down the whole pretty much the whole week.

2114
01:37:01,000 --> 01:37:04,000
Speaker 2: Sorry about that. It'll come around for you. Just like

2115
01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:07,679
Speaker 2: the college football playoffs got interesting in the semi finals, Arnie,

2116
01:37:08,320 --> 01:37:10,759
Speaker 2: things will get interesting for you whenever you start diving

2117
01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:12,960
Speaker 2: into the next round, the divisional round of the playoffs.

2118
01:37:13,160 --> 01:37:15,519
Speaker 2: Keep hope alive? All right, when we come back, your

01:38:07,600 --> 01:38:08,280
Speaker 2: that popped up.

2137
01:38:08,400 --> 01:38:09,040
Speaker 3: Don't know that.

2138
01:38:09,120 --> 01:38:11,120

2147
01:38:34,280 --> 01:38:39,759

2148
01:38:40,120 --> 01:38:45,320
Speaker 2: so you're not guaranteed a fourth spot, but then you

2149
01:38:45,400 --> 01:38:48,280
Speaker 2: get into that situation where you know, Minnesota kind of

2150
01:38:48,320 --> 01:38:50,320
Speaker 2: gets hosed as a four, but they would still get

2151
01:38:50,320 --> 01:38:51,799
Speaker 2: a playoff a home playoff game.

2152
01:38:51,720 --> 01:38:55,720
Speaker 3: Right, I'm not following that division winners one through.

2153
01:38:55,720 --> 01:38:59,400
Speaker 2: One, two, three division winners and that fourth division winner

2154
01:38:59,800 --> 01:39:03,160
Speaker 2: is guaranteed to be ahead of somebody that might go

2155
01:39:03,320 --> 01:39:04,600
Speaker 2: better you.

2156
01:39:04,680 --> 01:39:07,760
Speaker 3: That makes my lifense. I like that. You don't don't

2157
01:39:07,880 --> 01:39:10,200
Speaker 3: like when the listeners writing ideas like that and I

2158
01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:12,240
Speaker 3: laugh at them, But I like that one. I want

2159
01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:13,639
Speaker 3: to use that one as my own idea.

2160
01:39:14,600 --> 01:39:17,479
Speaker 2: Griddles will just steal it, Kylein. I don't allow him

2161
01:39:17,520 --> 01:39:18,920
Speaker 2: to trademark that ace.

2162
01:39:19,120 --> 01:39:22,200
Speaker 3: No, I'm gonna pretend that's my idea.

2163
01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:25,800
Speaker 2: Griddles make blackout total no show by the Dolphins today.

2164
01:39:25,880 --> 01:39:28,160
Speaker 2: Understandable that Arnie's a little testy.

2165
01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:30,200
Speaker 3: Am I little testing today? Do I have a little

2166
01:39:30,280 --> 01:39:31,360
Speaker 3: testy in my voice?

2167
01:39:31,439 --> 01:39:34,799
Speaker 2: It wasn't like last weekend. Last weekend you were very testy.

2168
01:39:34,920 --> 01:39:37,200
Speaker 3: Yeah there, And I feel good that we're gonna keep

2169
01:39:37,920 --> 01:39:39,760
Speaker 3: Tyreek Hill. I feel better about that.

2170
01:39:39,960 --> 01:39:42,360
Speaker 2: That was a one eighty this week, wasn't it.

2171
01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:44,840
Speaker 3: Well? He got me mad. You know, if you're gonna

2172
01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:46,360
Speaker 3: get me mad and you want to break both of you,

2173
01:39:46,439 --> 01:39:48,280
Speaker 3: I want to break up with you. Both of you.

2174
01:39:48,479 --> 01:39:51,240
Speaker 2: Got good to see you're back together. Brian writes, Give

2175
01:39:51,360 --> 01:39:56,120
Speaker 2: the Texans defense some credit. They destroyed Josh Allen historically

2176
01:39:56,160 --> 01:39:59,440
Speaker 2: bad game for him and golf with his five turnovers

2177
01:39:59,479 --> 01:39:59,840
Speaker 2: this year.

2178
01:40:00,560 --> 01:40:00,760
Speaker 3: Right.

2179
01:40:00,800 --> 01:40:03,120
Speaker 2: I don't think any of us are overly concerned about

2180
01:40:03,120 --> 01:40:05,519
Speaker 2: the Texans defense. It's what are they gonna do on offense?

2181
01:40:05,640 --> 01:40:05,840
Speaker 3: Right?

2182
01:40:06,240 --> 01:40:08,120
Speaker 2: And I take no chance to run the ball against

2183
01:40:08,200 --> 01:40:08,960
Speaker 2: Kansas City too?

2184
01:40:08,960 --> 01:40:11,080
Speaker 3: What's that? I'm sorry? They have zero percent chance of

2185
01:40:11,120 --> 01:40:12,200
Speaker 3: winning against Kansas City.

2186
01:40:12,200 --> 01:40:16,360
Speaker 2: I tried, Brian. There you go, Arnie, you're now Matthew writes, Arnie,

2187
01:40:16,360 --> 01:40:19,479
Speaker 2: you're now giving us financial advice. You give us your

2188
01:40:19,479 --> 01:40:23,040
Speaker 2: advice on who to bet on with our money each week?

2189
01:40:23,160 --> 01:40:25,519
Speaker 2: How does that turn out? I would lose all my

2190
01:40:25,720 --> 01:40:28,880
Speaker 2: money as it is if I take and bet on

2191
01:40:28,920 --> 01:40:29,519
Speaker 2: your advice.

2192
01:40:31,640 --> 01:40:33,400
Speaker 3: How do you know that this isn't gonna be like

2193
01:40:33,439 --> 01:40:35,800
Speaker 3: the next Bitcoin? And I'm gonna make millions on top

2194
01:40:35,840 --> 01:40:38,080
Speaker 3: of millions of dollars and then you're gonna regret it.

2195
01:40:38,280 --> 01:40:40,880
Speaker 2: You're gonna be so rich because not only are you

2196
01:40:40,960 --> 01:40:45,840
Speaker 2: gonna have all this money you're gonna make on whatever cryptocurrency, right,

2197
01:40:46,160 --> 01:40:48,160
Speaker 2: but you're gonna have your TV show?

2198
01:40:48,439 --> 01:40:48,639
Speaker 3: Right?

2199
01:40:48,680 --> 01:40:50,479
Speaker 2: And then don't they have a reality show too? Or

2200
01:40:50,520 --> 01:40:51,200
Speaker 2: did that die?

2201
01:40:51,560 --> 01:40:53,680
Speaker 3: No? I'm not doing the reality show, but I am

2202
01:40:53,840 --> 01:40:56,519
Speaker 3: waiting for the TV show. You're right about that. And

2203
01:40:56,560 --> 01:40:59,320
Speaker 3: my crypto coin is down a little bit right now, but.

2204
01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:03,920
Speaker 2: I'm not okay, Victor writes Arnie. Can my Texans reach

2205
01:41:03,960 --> 01:41:08,759
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl against the Lions? That's assuming a lot there, Victor.

2206
01:41:08,960 --> 01:41:10,960
Speaker 2: Can you imagine how crazy it's gonna be if the

2207
01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:12,960
Speaker 2: Lions make the Super Bowl? For that fan base?

2208
01:41:14,640 --> 01:41:16,479
Speaker 3: I would love that they I mean, you talk about

2209
01:41:16,479 --> 01:41:19,080
Speaker 3: a long dispersed fan base out there. I love for

2210
01:41:19,120 --> 01:41:21,160
Speaker 3: them to taste that a little bit.

2211
01:41:21,320 --> 01:41:23,439
Speaker 2: You know, profets a Lions fan, and you and him

2212
01:41:23,479 --> 01:41:24,160
Speaker 2: never got along.

2213
01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:28,519
Speaker 3: Jesus gosh, that's why I knew we should have gotten

2214
01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:29,040
Speaker 3: rid of him.

2215
01:41:29,840 --> 01:41:34,879
Speaker 2: David writes the consequences of nil. Maybe that Arizona becomes

2216
01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:38,639
Speaker 2: equal to the blue Bloods by developing their high school

2217
01:41:38,720 --> 01:41:41,800
Speaker 2: three star recruits to have depth on the lines and

2218
01:41:41,920 --> 01:41:45,200
Speaker 2: pick up five stars, second and third stringer in skilled

2219
01:41:45,240 --> 01:41:49,960
Speaker 2: positions from the blue Bloods. Thus the blue Bloods lose depth.

2220
01:41:51,040 --> 01:41:52,240
Speaker 3: Let me explain something, David.

2221
01:41:52,360 --> 01:41:54,760
Speaker 2: You're not speaking his language. That is a brilliant take.

2222
01:41:55,040 --> 01:41:57,799
Speaker 2: Arnie doesn't care. He wants to get a transfer from Georgia.

2223
01:41:58,000 --> 01:42:01,360
Speaker 3: Do you understand three star athletes are not in my vocabulary?

2224
01:42:01,600 --> 01:42:05,719
Speaker 3: I understand that, Arn'tie. I'm We're a four star, five

2225
01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:10,080
Speaker 3: star school. Okay, we don't take you're a three star?

2226
01:42:10,280 --> 01:42:12,760
Speaker 3: Come on here, what's wrong with you? Come on now?

2227
01:42:13,360 --> 01:42:14,880
Speaker 2: Do you want me to pull up the signing class

2228
01:42:14,880 --> 01:42:16,800
Speaker 2: to let you know how many three stars you currently have?

2229
01:42:16,840 --> 01:42:20,000
Speaker 3: Committee? Don't tell me. I'm upset. I want the four

2230
01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:22,720
Speaker 3: star five star. You know what I mean? When I

2231
01:42:22,760 --> 01:42:25,120
Speaker 3: go out with the girls, I want nines and tens.

2232
01:42:25,160 --> 01:42:26,559
Speaker 3: I don't want twos and threes.

2233
01:42:27,600 --> 01:42:28,840
Speaker 2: Understood, understood?

2234
01:42:29,479 --> 01:42:32,679
Speaker 3: No, understand that you out of everybody you would understand

2235
01:42:32,760 --> 01:42:33,360
Speaker 3: that that's right.

2236
01:42:33,920 --> 01:42:37,799
Speaker 2: Remember last week, mister nobody right, I said, Mike Tomlin

2237
01:42:37,960 --> 01:42:41,640
Speaker 2: stood on the sidelines like a dick sporting good mannequin,

2238
01:42:42,040 --> 01:42:46,040
Speaker 2: refusing to make changes. Well, the Steelers scored fourteen points

2239
01:42:46,120 --> 01:42:49,559
Speaker 2: last night. Justin Field's played all of two snaps. I

2240
01:42:49,840 --> 01:42:50,639
Speaker 2: wasn't wrong.

2241
01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:52,200
Speaker 3: I thought he was.

2242
01:42:52,160 --> 01:42:55,840
Speaker 2: Gonna come in the game more. I wonder if the

2243
01:42:56,240 --> 01:42:59,880
Speaker 2: philosophy or a plan changed drone delay last night. Haven't

2244
01:42:59,880 --> 01:43:02,920
Speaker 2: seen one of those before, but I wonder if their

2245
01:43:02,960 --> 01:43:05,720
Speaker 2: plans shifted at all.

2246
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:08,320
Speaker 3: I thought he was going to come in. Well, once

2247
01:43:08,360 --> 01:43:11,080
Speaker 3: they got down twenty one nothing, it was over anyway, right,

2248
01:43:11,120 --> 01:43:12,640
Speaker 3: Did it really make a difference who was going to

2249
01:43:12,680 --> 01:43:13,800
Speaker 3: be a quarterback at that point?

2250
01:43:14,320 --> 01:43:16,400
Speaker 2: I don't think any team thinks that way, But you're right,

2251
01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:20,840
Speaker 2: Mustang Manium. My guy in Dallas rites even though they suck.

2252
01:43:21,040 --> 01:43:24,280
Speaker 2: I'd like to remind you that the Cowboys beat both

2253
01:43:24,320 --> 01:43:29,120
Speaker 2: Tampa and Washington with Cooper Rush. So let's tap the

2254
01:43:29,160 --> 01:43:30,439
Speaker 2: brakes a scoach.

2255
01:43:31,760 --> 01:43:34,400
Speaker 3: Is that supposed to make them feel better that they've

2256
01:43:34,439 --> 01:43:34,760
Speaker 3: done that?

2257
01:43:35,360 --> 01:43:37,640
Speaker 2: I think it's more to say I don't think it

2258
01:43:37,680 --> 01:43:40,240
Speaker 2: was building up Dallas. I think it was more Hey

2259
01:43:40,360 --> 01:43:43,120
Speaker 2: settled down on this whole watch out for Washington and

2260
01:43:43,160 --> 01:43:45,639
Speaker 2: that was a big time win because they did lose

2261
01:43:45,680 --> 01:43:48,120
Speaker 2: to Dallas, and they lost to Dallas whenever Washington was

2262
01:43:48,120 --> 01:43:50,800
Speaker 2: at full strength. It wasn't like Jane Daniels didn't play

2263
01:43:50,840 --> 01:43:55,600
Speaker 2: or anything like that. You're not going to hold a

2264
01:43:55,600 --> 01:43:56,920
Speaker 2: loss against them to Dallas.

2265
01:43:57,840 --> 01:43:59,880
Speaker 3: Not at this point. Look far they are with the

2266
01:44:00,120 --> 01:44:04,360
Speaker 3: that's way in the past. Who cares about that right now? Uh,

2267
01:44:04,600 --> 01:44:06,120
Speaker 3: Spaccoli is very mad at me.

2268
01:44:06,520 --> 01:44:09,639
Speaker 2: If sin butts were candies and nuts planks By far

2269
01:44:09,720 --> 01:44:13,000
Speaker 2: the worst talker on FSR. Notre Dame had one loss,

2270
01:44:13,200 --> 01:44:16,400
Speaker 2: has the best defense in college football, deal with it

2271
01:44:16,439 --> 01:44:19,840
Speaker 2: defeated three top ten teams. Wow, I didn't get the

2272
01:44:19,840 --> 01:44:20,960
Speaker 2: title game I wanted.

2273
01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:23,960
Speaker 3: Did What did you say that you were that? He's

2274
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:26,200
Speaker 3: ripping you? You got the Actually you said they got

2275
01:44:26,200 --> 01:44:27,719
Speaker 3: the two teams in there that you wanted.

2276
01:44:27,840 --> 01:44:30,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I picked Notre Dame when the bracket

2277
01:44:30,560 --> 01:44:32,559
Speaker 2: came out to play for the title. So I have

2278
01:44:32,640 --> 01:44:35,760
Speaker 2: no idea what you're talking about, Sir Paul Wrights. I

2279
01:44:35,840 --> 01:44:39,439
Speaker 2: live in Dublin, Ohio, right outside of Columbus. For three years,

2280
01:44:39,800 --> 01:44:42,200
Speaker 2: Ohio State fans are not normal people.

2281
01:44:42,520 --> 01:44:44,760
Speaker 3: That's what we were talking about. If Ryan Day's going

2282
01:44:44,840 --> 01:44:47,639
Speaker 3: to get criticized if he ends up losing the championship game.

2283
01:44:47,680 --> 01:44:50,120
Speaker 3: I said no. But then you made a point that

2284
01:44:50,160 --> 01:44:52,439
Speaker 3: there's so many lunatic fringe out there. They're crazy, they

2285
01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:54,000
Speaker 3: are you're saying, I mean, I didn't.

2286
01:44:54,240 --> 01:44:56,679
Speaker 2: That was Kirk kurb Street. They used the lunatic fringe.

2287
01:44:57,600 --> 01:45:00,559
Speaker 2: I know you're out there, but I year and clear

2288
01:45:00,600 --> 01:45:03,880
Speaker 2: of that. Maybe there was frustration because I said they

2289
01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:07,240
Speaker 2: got a break when Drew Aller threw across his body

2290
01:45:07,280 --> 01:45:09,320
Speaker 2: into the middle of coverage of thirty seconds left.

2291
01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:11,439
Speaker 3: Well, I'm the one that's at Penn State. I still

2292
01:45:11,439 --> 01:45:13,280
Speaker 3: thought they should have won the game. I mean, I

2293
01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:14,400
Speaker 3: don't disagree with you on that.

2294
01:45:15,040 --> 01:45:18,360
Speaker 2: You throw across your body with thirty seconds left in

2295
01:45:18,360 --> 01:45:20,599
Speaker 2: the game to the middle of the field. What are

2296
01:45:20,600 --> 01:45:22,439
Speaker 2: we doing? I think you got a credit. Notre Dame

2297
01:45:22,479 --> 01:45:25,439
Speaker 2: too for getting pressure on him. He panicked, mister, and nobody,

2298
01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:27,760
Speaker 2: hold on, I just read that one. Eric writes, I

2299
01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:30,360
Speaker 2: want the Vikings to prove to me that this team

2300
01:45:30,400 --> 01:45:33,240
Speaker 2: isn't like the twenty twenty three team, the team that

2301
01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:35,040
Speaker 2: went eleven to zero or something like that.

2302
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:36,080
Speaker 3: In one score games.

2303
01:45:36,400 --> 01:45:39,080
Speaker 2: All I've heard all year is that this team is

2304
01:45:39,120 --> 01:45:42,280
Speaker 2: in the twenty twenty three team. Prove it tonight by

2305
01:45:42,320 --> 01:45:43,280
Speaker 2: beating the Rams.

2306
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:45,760
Speaker 3: That's right, good place to start there. I still like

2307
01:45:45,800 --> 01:45:47,560
Speaker 3: the Rams, but I think this is going to be

2308
01:45:47,600 --> 01:45:49,519
Speaker 3: one of the games, just like the Washington Tampa game

2309
01:45:49,560 --> 01:45:51,720
Speaker 3: that comes out to a field goal. I'm going to

2310
01:45:51,800 --> 01:45:53,320
Speaker 3: take the Rams, but I think this is going to

2311
01:45:53,320 --> 01:45:54,519
Speaker 3: be the best game of the weekend.

2312
01:45:54,800 --> 01:45:57,639
Speaker 2: Nature Boy, that damn kicker denied us a decent playoff

2313
01:45:57,680 --> 01:46:02,760
Speaker 2: overtime battle tonight. They pointed it in and it wasn't

2314
01:46:02,760 --> 01:46:03,400
Speaker 2: a full doink.

2315
01:46:03,439 --> 01:46:05,800
Speaker 3: It hit the upright. It was a full doink, not

2316
01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:07,040
Speaker 3: a full doink.

2317
01:46:09,280 --> 01:46:15,240
Speaker 2: Doing noise just because the Washington radio crew would make

2318
01:46:15,280 --> 01:46:17,080
Speaker 2: you think that he peared it, because they didn't even

2319
01:46:17,120 --> 01:46:18,679
Speaker 2: mention that it dooinked off the upright.

2320
01:46:18,800 --> 01:46:20,719
Speaker 3: Oh, they did not shake it going crazy.

2321
01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:23,479
Speaker 2: Oh, I've got the cut for you a bit. Braden

2322
01:46:23,520 --> 01:46:25,919
Speaker 2: lost Way just gets the last word before the Sager's

2323
01:46:25,960 --> 01:46:29,160
Speaker 2: final update. Please talk about that horrible play called by

2324
01:46:29,160 --> 01:46:31,479
Speaker 2: the Bucks that cost him the game. How do you

2325
01:46:31,560 --> 01:46:34,879
Speaker 2: do that to your defense? After that goal line stand

2326
01:46:35,400 --> 01:46:37,840
Speaker 2: didn't get a first down, still pinned inside your own

2327
01:46:37,880 --> 01:46:41,599
Speaker 2: twenty and hand the ball off to a running wide receiver.

2328
01:46:42,160 --> 01:46:44,280
Speaker 2: What in the world are you thinking?

2329
01:46:44,520 --> 01:46:48,519
Speaker 3: I think Baker Mayfield said his fault he was going

2330
01:46:48,600 --> 01:46:51,720
Speaker 3: to or at least the announcements said he's taken the

2331
01:46:51,760 --> 01:46:54,720
Speaker 3: fault for it. Maybe he was going to fake the handoff.

2332
01:46:55,360 --> 01:46:58,439
Speaker 2: Maybe anyway, I thought he got there late. I thought

2333
01:46:58,479 --> 01:46:59,960
Speaker 2: that just a handoff was late.

2334
01:47:00,320 --> 01:47:01,439
Speaker 3: Could have been? Could have been?

2335
01:47:01,680 --> 01:47:03,760
Speaker 2: Now we got some audio from the post game locker

2336
01:47:03,840 --> 01:47:06,439
Speaker 2: room coming up next, but first, for one final time tonight,

2337
01:47:06,439 --> 01:47:08,840
Speaker 2: Steve the Seger's in the house with what's trending. What's

2338
01:47:08,840 --> 01:47:09,479
Speaker 2: going on? Steve?

2339
01:47:09,640 --> 01:47:13,000
Speaker 5: Well, we had playoff wins for Buffalo, Philadelphia and Washington.

2340
01:47:13,040 --> 01:47:15,880
Speaker 5: And as far as that commander's kickers, Zane Gonzalez, the

2341
01:47:16,040 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 5: fourth kicker that Washington has used this year, and yes,

2342
01:47:20,080 --> 01:47:23,200
Speaker 5: Austin Cybert had the most games kicking for that team

2343
01:47:23,240 --> 01:47:25,439
Speaker 5: this year, but the man who hit the upright then

2344
01:47:25,520 --> 01:47:28,240
Speaker 5: it went through Sane Gonzales, the hero three for three

2345
01:47:28,280 --> 01:47:30,519
Speaker 5: on field goals, including a fifty two yarder.

2346
01:47:30,760 --> 01:47:31,720
Speaker 2: By the way, before we.

2347
01:47:31,680 --> 01:47:34,000
Speaker 5: Get to all the NFL, there is, of course the

2348
01:47:34,080 --> 01:47:36,400
Speaker 5: large fire in West LA. There's also been a bad

2349
01:47:36,400 --> 01:47:40,080
Speaker 5: fire just about Pasadena, City of Altadena that has a

2350
01:47:40,120 --> 01:47:42,720
Speaker 5: small population but a lot of damage there. The Rose

2351
01:47:42,760 --> 01:47:46,320
Speaker 5: Bowl grounds have been used for donations of food and clothing,

2352
01:47:46,320 --> 01:47:48,160
Speaker 5: and then that got moved out because they needed the

2353
01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:51,439
Speaker 5: Rose Bowl lots for fire department staging. No horse racing

2354
01:47:51,479 --> 01:47:54,719
Speaker 5: at Santa Anita this weekend east of Pasadena. Those grounds

2355
01:47:54,760 --> 01:47:58,639
Speaker 5: being used by organizations including a power company. Lakers home

2356
01:47:58,680 --> 01:48:01,880
Speaker 5: games and Clippers home game due to resume on Monday night,

2357
01:48:02,400 --> 01:48:04,280
Speaker 5: you know, every New Year's Day, and I mentioned this

2358
01:48:04,400 --> 01:48:06,639
Speaker 5: last night. We see the sun setting on the hills

2359
01:48:06,640 --> 01:48:08,760
Speaker 5: behind the Rose Bowls stadium. That is one of the

2360
01:48:08,800 --> 01:48:12,280
Speaker 5: great views in sports in this country. Jackie Robinson grew

2361
01:48:12,320 --> 01:48:14,880
Speaker 5: up in the neighborhood. You see just above the stadium.

2362
01:48:15,280 --> 01:48:18,320
Speaker 5: Behind those houses are the general mountains we're talking about.

2363
01:48:18,360 --> 01:48:22,080
Speaker 5: With the Altadena fire, which had over fourteen thousand acres burned,

2364
01:48:22,120 --> 01:48:24,479
Speaker 5: I looked it up, that would be the equivalent of

2365
01:48:24,640 --> 01:48:28,519
Speaker 5: half of San Francisco's land area torched. And that's just

2366
01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:32,160
Speaker 5: what is burned near Pasadena. In addition to Palisades Fire,

2367
01:48:32,200 --> 01:48:35,679
Speaker 5: West La is another nearly twenty four thousand acres burn

2368
01:48:36,040 --> 01:48:38,720
Speaker 5: The higher winds are returning tomorrow, but the firefighting has

2369
01:48:38,760 --> 01:48:41,960
Speaker 5: been great in LA this weekend, so the flames never

2370
01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:44,760
Speaker 5: came over the ridge to us here at the studio

2371
01:48:45,080 --> 01:48:48,519
Speaker 5: next weekend. In the NFL's Divisional Playoff, the Saturday night

2372
01:48:48,560 --> 01:48:51,559
Speaker 5: game will be Washington at top seed Detroit on top

2373
01:48:51,760 --> 01:48:54,840
Speaker 5: on Fox TV. And yes, Washington finished on top on

2374
01:48:54,960 --> 01:48:57,799
Speaker 5: the road at Tampa Bay tonight twenty three to twenty,

2375
01:48:58,080 --> 01:49:00,679
Speaker 5: so the Bucks finish five and five in home games

2376
01:49:00,720 --> 01:49:03,920
Speaker 5: this year. Baker Mayfield had two touchdown passes, the one

2377
01:49:03,960 --> 01:49:07,759
Speaker 5: costly fumble commanders no turnovers, no punts the entire game,

2378
01:49:08,080 --> 01:49:10,320
Speaker 5: and this was a Washington team that didn't have much

2379
01:49:10,360 --> 01:49:13,719
Speaker 5: on the ground thirty three carries just eighty two yards rushing,

2380
01:49:14,040 --> 01:49:16,559
Speaker 5: but the thirty seven year yardfield goal on the final

2381
01:49:16,600 --> 01:49:19,839
Speaker 5: play does it. They advanced Jayden Daniels two touchdown passes

2382
01:49:20,200 --> 01:49:22,920
Speaker 5: Philadelphie at home be Green Bay twenty two to ten,

2383
01:49:23,040 --> 01:49:26,760
Speaker 5: Sakuon Barkley nearly one hundred twenty yards rushing Philly nine

2384
01:49:26,800 --> 01:49:29,760
Speaker 5: and one at home Buffalo nine to Ohero at home

2385
01:49:29,880 --> 01:49:32,920
Speaker 5: Josh Allen two td passes, James Cook one hundred twenty

2386
01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:36,240
Speaker 5: yards rushing at a score thirty one seven. The final

2387
01:49:36,280 --> 01:49:40,240
Speaker 5: over Denver, which finished as season ten and eight. Next Sunday,

2388
01:49:40,280 --> 01:49:45,559
Speaker 5: Buffalo will be hosting Baltimore Josh Allen against Lamar Jackson.

2389
01:49:46,000 --> 01:49:48,720
Speaker 5: Detroit fifteen and two was off this weekend as a

2390
01:49:48,720 --> 01:49:52,440
Speaker 5: one seed after winning its regular season finale against Minnesota.

2391
01:49:52,439 --> 01:49:55,400
Speaker 5: Remember last Sunday night, Detroit was number one in the

2392
01:49:55,479 --> 01:49:58,479
Speaker 5: NFC in total offense, the one seed in the AFC.

2393
01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:01,360
Speaker 5: The Chiefs fifteen and two off this weekend. They'll be

2394
01:50:01,360 --> 01:50:04,800
Speaker 5: hosting Houston Saturday afternoon. We had that one more game

2395
01:50:04,840 --> 01:50:07,320
Speaker 5: to finish up wild Card weekend Monday night, not in

2396
01:50:07,479 --> 01:50:09,920
Speaker 5: La due to the fires, but the Rams in Arizona

2397
01:50:10,040 --> 01:50:13,559
Speaker 5: against the Vikings. Winner goes to Philly next Sunday, three

2398
01:50:13,600 --> 01:50:16,439
Speaker 5: pm Eastern time. The Vikings record, by the way, was

2399
01:50:16,520 --> 01:50:19,880
Speaker 5: fourteen and three this year. The three losses they lost

2400
01:50:19,920 --> 01:50:23,080
Speaker 5: twice to Detroit and they lost at the Rams in October.

2401
01:50:23,120 --> 01:50:25,640
Speaker 5: It was a Thursday night game thirty to twenty. That

2402
01:50:25,760 --> 01:50:27,800
Speaker 5: lead was twenty one to twenty Rams with six and

2403
01:50:27,800 --> 01:50:30,599
Speaker 5: a half minutes to go. Sam Darnold from USC had

2404
01:50:30,640 --> 01:50:34,160
Speaker 5: two touchdowns in that game against La. Vikings head coach

2405
01:50:34,240 --> 01:50:37,400
Speaker 5: Kevin O'Connell. As the Southern California native, he was Rams

2406
01:50:37,479 --> 01:50:40,920
Speaker 5: offensive coordinator on Sean mcvay's staff in twenty twenty and

2407
01:50:40,960 --> 01:50:43,960
Speaker 5: twenty twenty one. And remember, the Rams could have had

2408
01:50:43,960 --> 01:50:47,080
Speaker 5: the three seed. They sat starters last weekend lost a

2409
01:50:47,120 --> 01:50:49,760
Speaker 5: close game to end the regular season against Seattle, so

2410
01:50:49,800 --> 01:50:53,240
Speaker 5: Tampa Bay was the three seed. Minnesota had the number

2411
01:50:53,240 --> 01:50:56,040
Speaker 5: one run defense in the NFC this season, allowed just

2412
01:50:56,160 --> 01:50:58,680
Speaker 5: ninety three yards rushing per game, so that's what the

2413
01:50:58,760 --> 01:51:01,320
Speaker 5: Rams are up against. And the good news that quarterback

2414
01:51:01,360 --> 01:51:04,200
Speaker 5: Sam Darnold for the Vikings did practice fully on Friday

2415
01:51:04,240 --> 01:51:06,800
Speaker 5: after a quad injury. Now running back Aaron Jones was

2416
01:51:06,840 --> 01:51:09,040
Speaker 5: limited that day by a quad injury. He has no

2417
01:51:09,200 --> 01:51:13,360
Speaker 5: injury designation. And in case you did not see the

2418
01:51:13,479 --> 01:51:16,759
Speaker 5: voting for All Pro, we mentioned earlier that yes, Lamar

2419
01:51:16,840 --> 01:51:20,000
Speaker 5: Jackson beat out Josh Allen for All Pro Quarterback, All

2420
01:51:20,040 --> 01:51:24,360
Speaker 5: Pro being the elite both conferences combined. Minnesota wide receiver

2421
01:51:24,560 --> 01:51:29,120
Speaker 5: Justin Jefferson was a unanimous All Pro selection. The Patriots

2422
01:51:29,160 --> 01:51:32,120
Speaker 5: hired Mike Rabel as their new head coach. NHL late

2423
01:51:32,160 --> 01:51:35,920
Speaker 5: game Vegas over Minnesota for to one College Hoops number fifteen.

2424
01:51:35,960 --> 01:51:38,560
Speaker 5: Oregon won eighty two eighty one at Penn State. The

2425
01:51:38,640 --> 01:51:41,240
Speaker 5: late game in the NBA went to Phoenix over Charlotte,

2426
01:51:41,240 --> 01:51:44,360
Speaker 5: which is eight and twenty eight. Washington's record six and

2427
01:51:44,479 --> 01:51:46,519
Speaker 5: thirty one. They lost their six in a row. They

2428
01:51:46,520 --> 01:51:49,960
Speaker 5: lost to Oklahoma City one thirty six to ninety five.

2429
01:51:50,720 --> 01:51:54,200
Speaker 5: Okse with a record of thirty two and six. Indiana

2430
01:51:54,240 --> 01:51:56,680
Speaker 5: won at six in a row one at Cleveland, Sacramento

2431
01:51:56,720 --> 01:51:59,920
Speaker 5: won at seventh straight, and New York beat up Millwall

2432
01:52:00,080 --> 01:52:02,320
Speaker 5: key as Jalen Brunson had forty four points.

2433
01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:04,280
Speaker 3: Back to you, oh wait, wait to sega one more.

2434
01:52:04,400 --> 01:52:07,400
Speaker 3: I can't believe you didn't give this score because this

2435
01:52:07,479 --> 01:52:11,720
Speaker 3: is this is the type of garbage you love women's basketball?

2436
01:52:11,800 --> 01:52:12,439
Speaker 3: Did you see this?

2437
01:52:12,560 --> 01:52:13,400
Speaker 2: Oh the comeback?

Speaker 3: second half to lose by thirteen.

Speaker 5: They tied the largest comeback in NCAA women's hoops history.

2445
01:52:40,479 --> 01:52:43,559
Speaker 3: Today, I can't imagine even men's.

2446
01:52:43,800 --> 01:52:44,880

Speaker 2: You can google it yourself.

2451
01:52:55,160 --> 01:52:58,240
Speaker 5: When you had two baskets in the second half, yes,

2452
01:52:58,400 --> 01:52:59,320

01:53:01,040 --> 01:53:05,000
Speaker 3: When you're down forty nine eighteen at a half time.

2455
01:53:05,080 --> 01:53:08,240
Speaker 3: In girls basketball, usually a team does not come back

2456
01:53:08,520 --> 01:53:12,080
Speaker 3: no matter because usually it's like lopsided, like like Yukon's

2457
01:53:12,120 --> 01:53:14,160
Speaker 3: playing somebody bat or something like that.

2458
01:53:15,280 --> 01:53:20,439
Speaker 2: Texas Texas State overcame a thirty two point deficit in

2459
01:53:20,800 --> 01:53:25,400
Speaker 2: two thousand and six to beat UTSA. But on February

2460
01:53:25,439 --> 01:53:29,160
Speaker 2: twenty second, twenty eighteen, Drexel overcame a thirty four point

2461
01:53:29,200 --> 01:53:32,639
Speaker 2: favorite one to beat Delaware a thirty point four point

2462
01:53:32,680 --> 01:53:33,920
Speaker 2: margin to be Delaware.

2463
01:53:33,920 --> 01:53:34,360
Speaker 3: So there you go.

2464
01:53:34,439 --> 01:53:36,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, this was thirty two first half, down thirty one

2465
01:53:36,840 --> 01:53:37,400
Speaker 5: at the break.

2466
01:53:38,360 --> 01:53:40,040
Speaker 3: Thanks Steve. Have a good week, buddy.

2470
01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:51,760
Speaker 3: Step good, hold down, kick on its way. It is.

2471
01:53:54,560 --> 01:53:58,480
Speaker 8: The cardiac commanders are the clutch commanders.

2472
01:53:58,920 --> 01:54:04,840
Speaker 3: Day do it. We'll see you in Detroit ticks at

2473
01:54:04,880 --> 01:54:10,040
Speaker 3: the door the scond ballOf.

2474
01:54:11,960 --> 01:54:13,439
Speaker 2: I guess it was just right down the middle of

2475
01:54:13,520 --> 01:54:14,080
Speaker 2: the uprights.

2476
01:54:14,160 --> 01:54:14,400
Speaker 3: Huh.

2477
01:54:14,400 --> 01:54:16,679
Speaker 2: I guess that one was just pured right through the middle.

2478
01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:18,960
Speaker 3: Must have been. I saw the video of them. I

2479
01:54:18,960 --> 01:54:20,680
Speaker 3: didn't get to hear the play by play till now,

2480
01:54:20,720 --> 01:54:23,360
Speaker 3: but I saw the video of them pumping their fists

2481
01:54:23,360 --> 01:54:25,000
Speaker 3: like they were actually coaching the team.

2482
01:54:25,080 --> 01:54:27,479
Speaker 2: I'm guilty of that. I can't dog that.

2483
01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:30,519
Speaker 3: I thought that they were the It was like the

2484
01:54:30,520 --> 01:54:33,760
Speaker 3: offensive coordinator or something pumping his No, I didn't know

2485
01:54:33,760 --> 01:54:34,280
Speaker 3: who it was.

2486
01:54:34,440 --> 01:54:37,200
Speaker 2: I had no idea he was Jane Daniels on his

2487
01:54:37,240 --> 01:54:38,200
Speaker 2: third down conversion.

2488
01:54:38,200 --> 01:54:40,720
Speaker 6: Afterwards, I called my number and I was like, oh,

2489
01:54:41,400 --> 01:54:43,640
Speaker 6: essentially before I told him, hey, you can put the

2490
01:54:43,640 --> 01:54:47,360
Speaker 6: ball in my hands. So he caught my number, made

2491
01:54:48,040 --> 01:54:50,040
Speaker 6: cancy miss, and you know, the line did a great

2492
01:54:50,080 --> 01:54:50,640
Speaker 6: job of blocking.

2493
01:54:50,960 --> 01:54:52,840
Speaker 2: We got a couple more cuts we want to get

2494
01:54:52,840 --> 01:54:54,920

2499
01:55:07,520 --> 01:55:09,400
Speaker 3: She must not want to talk about it. Maybe not.

2500
01:55:09,520 --> 01:55:11,440
Speaker 3: I don't blame that. Maybe she didn't have to keep

Speaker 3: it too much. Tea and crumpets, Hi, guys, maybe so

2507
01:55:24,640 --> 01:55:25,120
Speaker 5: the worst.

2508
01:55:25,800 --> 01:55:28,160
Speaker 3: You got to tweet about somebody liking all the music

2509
01:55:28,200 --> 01:55:29,640
Speaker 3: and said it to Mary. I don't know why you

2510
01:55:29,760 --> 01:55:31,160
Speaker 3: said it to her. I'm the one that picks it.

2511
01:55:31,240 --> 01:55:33,440
Speaker 3: That's right, Arnie picks all the music for you.

2512
01:55:33,480 --> 01:55:37,720
Speaker 2: Guys, learned anything the light detector determined that was a lie?

2513
01:55:38,320 --> 01:55:39,760
Speaker 2: Are you ready for your picks?

2514
01:55:40,000 --> 01:55:42,200
Speaker 3: I'm ready to roll, man. I went five to five

2515
01:55:42,280 --> 01:55:46,280
Speaker 3: on my on my picks last week. I'm just I'm

2516
01:55:46,280 --> 01:55:49,000
Speaker 3: not going to pick the college championship. That's a week

2517
01:55:49,040 --> 01:55:50,000
Speaker 3: from Monday. Correct.

2518
01:55:51,440 --> 01:55:53,040
Speaker 2: You got time, Arnie, you got time?

2519
01:55:53,240 --> 01:55:56,320
Speaker 3: All right? I'm going to take Kansas City late in

2520
01:55:56,400 --> 01:55:59,600
Speaker 3: eight and a half against the Texans. Uh. Texans have

2521
01:55:59,800 --> 01:56:05,800
Speaker 3: zero chance in that game, zero zero. They looked real

2522
01:56:06,120 --> 01:56:11,480
Speaker 3: good in their win against the Chargers, but you know

2523
01:56:11,480 --> 01:56:13,800
Speaker 3: what do we expect from the Chargers? They just rolled

2524
01:56:13,840 --> 01:56:16,800
Speaker 3: over a matter of fact, that's the about as good

2525
01:56:16,800 --> 01:56:19,600
Speaker 3: as the Texas offense looked. No way they've repeat it

2526
01:56:19,600 --> 01:56:22,000
Speaker 3: could be Kansas City, might it's eight and a half.

2527
01:56:22,280 --> 01:56:24,720
Speaker 3: I'm all over my Buffalo Bills minus one and a

2528
01:56:24,720 --> 01:56:27,640
Speaker 3: half against Baltimore. I think it's gonna be a good game.

2529
01:56:28,320 --> 01:56:31,960
Speaker 3: But Baltimore better bring their offensive shoes with them now

2530
01:56:31,960 --> 01:56:35,000
Speaker 3: they're going on the road the Buffalo. That Buffalo crowd

2531
01:56:35,080 --> 01:56:37,120
Speaker 3: is going to be awesome. How as you go to

2532
01:56:37,160 --> 01:56:38,600
Speaker 3: the game, what do you think, Chris? Should I go

2533
01:56:38,600 --> 01:56:39,040
Speaker 3: to the game?

2534
01:56:39,240 --> 01:56:42,520
Speaker 2: I know you say this a lot, but you should.

2535
01:56:42,680 --> 01:56:44,480
Speaker 2: You should take Bath to the game?

2536
01:56:45,400 --> 01:56:45,560
Speaker 4: Oh?

2537
01:56:45,600 --> 01:56:47,280
Speaker 3: I should take my wife to the game. That's a

2538
01:56:47,280 --> 01:56:50,720
Speaker 3: good idea. Yeah, yeah, that's a long drive, all right.

2539
01:56:51,040 --> 01:56:54,920
Speaker 3: I like Detroit minus eight and a half against Washington.

2540
01:56:56,040 --> 01:56:58,920
Speaker 3: That line opened up at ten and a half, Chris, Oh,

2541
01:56:59,000 --> 01:57:02,080
Speaker 3: immediately immediately a lot of money capable of as we

2542
01:57:02,120 --> 01:57:04,760
Speaker 3: have Todd Furman, a lot of people if they want

2543
01:57:04,840 --> 01:57:07,480
Speaker 3: Washington'm gonna jump on that ten and a half. That's

2544
01:57:07,520 --> 01:57:11,520
Speaker 3: different casinos. I'm gonna tak Detroit minus satan half. I

2545
01:57:11,520 --> 01:57:14,800
Speaker 3: think that's the real line in this one against Washington

2546
01:57:15,560 --> 01:57:17,920
Speaker 3: and give you the Rams in tomorrow's game plus the

2547
01:57:17,960 --> 01:57:21,400
Speaker 3: two and a half against Minnesota. I liked that I'm

2548
01:57:21,400 --> 01:57:24,240
Speaker 3: getting two and a half now instead of a pickup game.

2549
01:57:24,320 --> 01:57:26,520
Speaker 3: So there's my picks doing them as the police no

2550
01:57:26,640 --> 01:57:29,000
Speaker 3: longer strictly for entertainment purposes only.

2551
01:57:29,600 --> 01:57:32,640
Speaker 2: I know that everyone has an opinion on aj Brown

2552
01:57:33,240 --> 01:57:36,760
Speaker 2: reading a book on the sidelines. He does it every week.

2553
01:57:36,800 --> 01:57:39,880
Speaker 2: He says, Yeah, I mean, I really don't care. Some

2554
01:57:39,960 --> 01:57:42,560
Speaker 2: of you act like he walked up, read the book,

2555
01:57:42,680 --> 01:57:44,880
Speaker 2: kicked you in the face, put you in a chokehold,

2556
01:57:44,920 --> 01:57:47,880
Speaker 2: and then body slammed you while reading the book. I'm

2557
01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:51,720
Speaker 2: just it's not that big of a deal. Is Why

2558
01:57:51,720 --> 01:57:52,400
Speaker 2: do you think it's.

2559
01:57:52,280 --> 01:57:52,800
Speaker 3: A big deal?

2560
01:57:53,000 --> 01:57:55,360
Speaker 2: Well, anything that he's done quite a bit, and it's

2561
01:57:55,400 --> 01:57:57,720
Speaker 2: maybe a place that he looks for motivation throughout a game.

2562
01:57:57,800 --> 01:57:58,200
Speaker 2: Is that bad?

2563
01:57:58,200 --> 01:58:00,240
Speaker 3: I shouldn't he be paying attention to the.

2564
01:58:01,240 --> 01:58:05,160
Speaker 2: How often is he sitting there doing things that are

2565
01:58:05,200 --> 01:58:07,320
Speaker 2: related to his responsibilities.

2566
01:58:07,680 --> 01:58:09,560
Speaker 3: It shows that he has a lack of interest when

2567
01:58:09,560 --> 01:58:10,560
Speaker 3: he does something like that.

2568
01:58:10,520 --> 01:58:12,720
Speaker 2: Or is he focused on himself and trying to make

2569
01:58:12,760 --> 01:58:14,560
Speaker 2: sure his mind and that is where it needs to be.

2570
01:58:14,920 --> 01:58:17,120
Speaker 3: All right, I'm focused on myself. Every time you talk

2571
01:58:17,160 --> 01:58:19,000
Speaker 3: I'm just going to read it. I pretty much do.

2572
01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:21,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I don't think you have a leg to

2573
01:58:21,480 --> 01:58:24,160
Speaker 2: stand on on this one. Yeah, but Ralph ried Sorr,

2574

Speaker 3: it was? I have no idea.

2585
01:59:00,440 --> 01:59:02,320
Speaker 2: It was just it was some self help book that

2586
01:59:02,960 --> 01:59:05,480
Speaker 2: everyone realized, see Pete, I saw a couple of different

Speaker 2: people had it.

2588
01:59:06,520 --> 01:59:08,440
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, I don't care.

2594
01:59:24,120 --> 01:59:28,080
Speaker 2: get clowned. But as he said tonight, it's not anything

2595
01:59:28,200 --> 01:59:31,480
Speaker 2: different from what he's done pretty much all season long.

2596
