Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL podcast tracks kickers more than NFL

2
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:10,079
Speaker 1: coaches do. Welcome to another edition of the Around the

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: NFL Podcast. My name is Dan Jansas. Joined in room

4
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: filled with heroes, Mark Sessler, Chris Wesling, and Greg Rostal.

5
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: What is up? Boys? Hey Hey? Week two flagship program

6
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: recapping every game on Sunday, UM and another wild Week two.

7
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: They always are wild, Mark, because all the expectations of

8
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 1: the preseason in the summer give way to the awakenings

9
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: of Week one and then things start to get teams

10
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: into another direction after the second week of football. They do.

11
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,239
Speaker 1: And today was one of those thank you, those one

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 1: of those uh special Sundays where they give you ten

13
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: early games. So you know, if you're at a sports bar,

14
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: you can just choose to do what you want and

15
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: eat food all day long and enjoy yourself. Again, if

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: you're us, it's it's like fifteen aircraft's coming at you

17
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: at the same time, and you just come out with

18
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 1: as much information as possible, and you know the show

19
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: may suffer for it a little ridiculous to have ten

20
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: early games. I don't know what the Stress Network angle either.

21
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: I'd like what spread them out a right you're usually

22
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 1: you're very plugged in with the shadowy League figures, always

23
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: hob nobbing potentially one of them, potentially one of them

24
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: in the future. Why is it that they can't give

25
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: us more balance on us on? I would say randomness

26
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: would be a factor where the home games are, and

27
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: then you want to load up. You want to have

28
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: the most amount of people watching the national game. So

29
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: that was Saints Rams. So sometimes they like to load

30
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 1: it up so everyone has to watch. I took a

31
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 1: quick look because it does affect um some of the

32
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 1: stuff on Sunday. It looks like it's happening one more time,

33
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: but then you get all the bye weeks and that

34
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: starts to shift some of these clown teams off the

35
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: schedule for a week or two. All right, so, um,

36
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: what happened in week two? We're gonna get to it.

37
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: Two huge quarterback injuries that we'll get to that early

38
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: in the show. But why don't we start west? How

39
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: are you a little quiet and early going? My brains

40
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: a little scrambled today, But take us through it. What's up? Well,

41
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: it's just a lot to keep track of. I didn't

42
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: get to do as much prep work between the because

43
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: of the schedule between the end of the late games

44
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: the Bears, broncoss is like he he had like seventy

45
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: seven snaps in week one. It was it was a

46
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,920
Speaker 1: pretty you know, relaxing off season, and you're feeling that

47
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: sometimes the soreness going into week two weeks two is

48
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,239
Speaker 1: the real time. There is like a flock of American

49
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: bricklayers who are like, okay, boys, what's your what are

50
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: you doing on Sundays? That's so tough? All right, So

51
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: we have quarterback injuries to get to, but let's start

52
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: with the wildest ending to a week to game. And

53
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: it happened. Oh yeah, up in Mile High you go

54
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: to empower Field West and crazy things go down. He's

55
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,399
Speaker 1: made it from forty and fifty two. This one from

56
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: fifty three right hash scales on the ball, oh down

57
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: on the hole from the right hash angle, the left,

58
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: good placement boot, Bye Eddy panierro kick to the up rights.

59
00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: The chicken ish god for what that's zero kid to

60
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: send Denver down. As time expires, they're sixteen, they escape

61
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: with the victory on the road. Say dude, black beautiful,

62
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: I thought he said to narrow like money, money, I

63
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: like Panero waiting for something to help does rhyme Jeff

64
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 1: Johnny Johnny at with the Copper Bears Radio Network, Eddie Panero,

65
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: Eddie Money, maybe hold on to me stroke the fifty

66
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: one yard field goals time expired, lifting the Bears to

67
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: a sixteen fourteen win. It's one of the strangest, most

68
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: unusual endings to a football game that you will ever see.

69
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 1: Um West, So much happened here, so much to unpack

70
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: in the last few minutes of this game. But the

71
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: Bears stolen at empower Field. It didn't feel like they

72
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: still it. I think that's how Broncos fans will feel.

73
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: For fifty nine minutes, it felt like nothing but holding

74
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: penalties happened in this game. Flacco hits Courtland Sutton to

75
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: convert a pair of fourth down penalties with the game

76
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: on the line, or fourth down situations with the game

77
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: on the line. If then hits Manny Sanders with a

78
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: great catch in the back of the end zone. Sanders

79
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: had a had an excellent game today. And then the

80
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 1: craziness starts with the two point conversions that Foggio shows

81
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: some onions decides to go for the win, not the tie.

82
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: Let me go through this, West, let me set it up.

83
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,679
Speaker 1: So they score the touchdown. Like West said to Sanders, Uh,

84
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 1: there down one point, they decided to go for two

85
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 1: Flacco and the offense gets called for delay of game,

86
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: backing it up five yards. So it's just a brutal

87
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: thing lateran quarterback for that to happen. It might have

88
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: been on the coaching staff for giving a late call.

89
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: Who Foggio says, Uh, effort, Let's send the kicking team

90
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: out for the extra point. Let's try to get to overtime.

91
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: Brandon McManus pushes it wide right, game over and and

92
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: and a win for the Broncos. Butt former jetbuster screen

93
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: offsides another thing that can that happened in that spot.

94
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: So it moves back closer to the goal line and

95
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 1: Foggio hangs the onions and says, we'll send Flacco and

96
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: company back out there, and this time the play goes through.

97
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 1: He connects with Manny Sanders again for the two point conversion.

98
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: Uh to put them ahead. Just a wild sequence, a

99
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: wild sequence, and then the ball goes back to the Bears,

100
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: who have not trusted their quarterback at any point in

101
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: this game. The Bears did not trust trust mr Oltrobinski.

102
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: At one point, they scored their only touchdown of the

103
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: year by running the ball nine straight times and not

104
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 1: passing at all on the drive. So that's how much

105
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: they trusted their quarterback. Trabinsky gets the benefit of a

106
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: very shaky roughing the passer penalty on Bradley Chubb that

107
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 1: not only gives the Bears fifteen yards but stops the clock.

108
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: More than shaky. That was a disgrace. Yes, I think

109
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: that was a lot worse than the Clay Matthews call,

110
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: which got a lot of attention because the Matthews call,

111
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: and it could be argued, was the letter of the law.

112
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,840
Speaker 1: This one, I failed to understand. Gravity took hold he

113
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 1: he went down on the quarterback because he was tackling

114
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: the quarterback and it was completely legal when he made contact.

115
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: That should be reviewable and it will be no solace

116
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: to Broncos fan that that judgment calls like pass interference

117
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: as a route reviewable, but a game deciding call like

118
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: this is not reviewable even though it's a judgment call.

119
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: How about a little consistency in philosophy here, NFL. And

120
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: then it gets to the point where they're in desperation

121
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: with that at least gives them a chance to get

122
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: near midfield. And then with their backs against the wall,

123
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: Trabinsky finally makes a play. He steps up in the

124
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 1: pocket fourth and fifteen, and the Broncos leave Alan Robinson

125
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: wide open in the middle of field. Now, the play

126
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 1: broke down a little bit, so that's why he got

127
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: wide open. But you still can't allow that. And then

128
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 1: they got the benefit of the doubt again from the

129
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 1: clockkeeper that they decided there was one second left on

130
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 1: the clock, and you could say there was zero seconds.

131
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: I thought that was clear to everyone got all up

132
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: in arms about Okay, did they get the time out?

133
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 1: You can say before the play and the coach can say,

134
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 1: the second hits the ground, we're calling a time out.

135
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: And so that rule, that an unwritten rule, that that

136
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: is how the NFL works. In terms of time outs,

137
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: you say, you know, they don't really sweat the time.

138
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: In terms as long you don't never say now if

139
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: you're if you're down, you can call the types. So

140
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: I wasn't worried about that because it seemed clear even

141
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: then it's borderline, it was bordered. It was one second,

142
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: though it looked like there was one second I was

143
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: more hung up like Mark was with the idea of

144
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: don't you need to get someone's attention and get the

145
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: time out called? But I guess if you fine with it,

146
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: if if that's that's how they want to operate with it.

147
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: My one thing because the a win like this, Bears

148
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: fans went through a hellish week after week one, and

149
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: I get that, And you can feel good tonight about

150
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: getting out of Denver, a tough one of the toughest

151
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: places to play with this. And if I'm Vic Fongio,

152
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with going forward on two

153
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: because I don't think that offense is getting back into

154
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: scoring position in overtime necessarily. But Bears and I in

155
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: nice play by Mitch Drobiski, But I do not come

156
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: out of this team with anything but hyper concern about

157
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: the long the long half of this offense season wide.

158
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: How do you win seven games with this all four

159
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: point four yards per It was pretty interesting that that

160
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: the Bronco I mean, Joe Flacco through an awful what

161
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: appeared to be game ending interception and the red zone

162
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: just before that happened the last their last three drives.

163
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: They're driving up and down the field on the Broncos,

164
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: they kick a field goal, they throw an interception on

165
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: the goal line, and then they score a touchdown with

166
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: the two point conversion on that Bears defense reminded me

167
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: a little bit of that Eagles game in the playoffs

168
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 1: where the offense was bad for so long that the

169
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: defense eventually caved in. It's gonna be a long and

170
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: wild and fun night at the Kicker Club because Eddie

171
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 1: Panniero is the biggest superstar in the game this summer

172
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: and the kicker glove after going through the gauntlet of

173
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: Bears training camp and offseason activities where Chicago and Matteggi

174
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: brought in nine different kickers and essentially played mental war

175
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: games on everyone in that competition as they try to

176
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: work their way away from the double Joink and Cody Parky. Uh,

177
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: Eddie Panniero drills a game winner. I'm sure of being

178
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: five thousand feet above sea level help. But hey, that

179
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,439
Speaker 1: was onions chick. Let's hear from Eddie after the game

180
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: because he deserves it. Yeah, that was. Like I said,

181
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 1: I couldn't have done it without my team. Thank god

182
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 1: that it was to this point and for everybody listening, Man,

183
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: if you don't believe in Jesus Christ, you better start,

184
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: because he's real. I promise you that he's a Bears fan.

185
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: That's now confirmed. He said he was emotional because of

186
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: everything he went through in terms of the Augustus silence,

187
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: everything like that. West, you update us with your state

188
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: of the Broncos because sitting next to you when when

189
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: they called that holding penalty are rather offsides penalty on

190
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: the Bears. That gave the Broncos another chance. It was

191
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: the most emotional I had seen you watching a football

192
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: game in a while. A lot of ups and downs

193
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: for the once team of West Tel. Well, that had

194
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: a lot more to do with the situation that you

195
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: just don't see, like a last minute like this with

196
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: with the two point conversions and the onions and the

197
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: going for it and the penalties. The Broncost had twenty

198
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: seven first downs in this game, which is the same

199
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: number as the Patriots and forty Niners and their forty Burgers.

200
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: They moved the ball up and down the field all game,

201
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 1: and you ask where the big plays were, they all

202
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 1: got brought back on Garrett Bowls holding penalties or Ronald

203
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: Leary holding penalties. They moved the ball. They had big plays,

204
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: the big players just didn't count because of what we've

205
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: We've seen at this point, ten or eleven teams that

206
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: West has, you know, cozied up two over the course

207
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: of seasons. Did Joe Flacco led Broncos do not at

208
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: this point to me look like one of those teams.

209
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: I will wait and see what we're not letting you

210
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: off the roller coaster either. That's fair. I spend time

211
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,319
Speaker 1: in the penalty box, but I will say that the

212
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: biggest trapped in baby, the biggest issue with the Broncos

213
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 1: offense so far this year is they've not been able

214
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 1: to do anything in the condensed area of the red

215
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: zone except on that go ahead touchdown in two point

216
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: you get twenty seven first downs. That's nice, you scored

217
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: fourteen points that again, watch the game, you're gonna see

218
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: a lot of Garrett Bolls holding penalties, undoing the good

219
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 1: of Philip Lindsay, Royce Freeman and Joe Flax and he

220
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: he remains their left tackle. They said after the game

221
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: they're not even considering benching Garrett Bowls and I am

222
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: Jean John Elway. Whether there's unwritten rules or written rules

223
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: about that time out is given a call to the

224
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: New York office just to share his feeling on it,

225
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: because that is a tough way to lose a game.

226
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: My goodness. All right, let's move on now to a rematch.

227
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: Rematch of the NFC Championship game. Again, they empty out

228
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 1: and leave Golf alone in the shotgun. He's gonna take

229
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: this snap with less than eight seconds on the play clock.

230
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: Here it comes rushed from the Saints. He froze Let's

231
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: side Cooper Cup the Cats forty five and fifty stiff

232
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: farm in the Saints Teret Fury Pete break to tackle,

233
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,439
Speaker 1: get to block at the thirty Cooper Cup. Funny Queen's

234
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: back ten Cooper Cup. Cooper Cup was actually ruled down

235
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: at the one foot line, but who cares. Jared Goff

236
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: score to the next play anyway and JB Long with

237
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: the Rams radio network, Uh but the call there? Good

238
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: Man to nine win for the Rams over the Saints

239
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: at the cal seem. It was supposed to be a

240
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: revenge game for the Saints after last January's NFC Championship

241
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: Game officiating tobaccle, but instead the Saints are holding their

242
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: breath after Drew Breese and this is the biggest storyline

243
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: coming out of this game, suffered at potentially serious thumb

244
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: injury in the first half. Breeze. The last thing we've

245
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: heard as as we go up to tape here um

246
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: around UM nine o'clock Eastern time, UH that he's gonna

247
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: undergo testing here in Los Angeles to determine the severity

248
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: of the injury. UM mark. It didn't pass the test,

249
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: the sniff test. When you're watching it on the sidelines,

250
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,679
Speaker 1: right off the bat he he he enters it, his

251
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: hand collides with Aaron Donald on a pass rush and

252
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: he's immediately out of the game, his hands taped up,

253
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: but he's just standing there watching. There's there's no attempt

254
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: to try to warm up. And then at one point,

255
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: UH Fox cameras catch Breeze go to try to even

256
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: just pick up the ball and immediately tosses it away

257
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: because obviously he gets a surge of pain. Very bad situation.

258
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 1: For the same time, that helps, that's when it helps

259
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: tap Roy aikmen watching what's happening, because he's been through

260
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: these things before. He went through some ups and downs

261
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: with durability, and right away he said, no, Breeze is

262
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: absolutely not coming back. In this game. And it's probably

263
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: more serious than anyone would let on at this point

264
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 1: because there were no even there were no doctors even examine.

265
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 1: He was just sort of sitting there with a dejected

266
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: look on his face. And suddenly you're getting a very

267
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: big helping of Teddy Bridgewater. Too much Teddy Bridgewater in

268
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: this game. Uh. And we'll see if Bridgewater ends up

269
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: being there starter going forward in the weeks ahead, and

270
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: we'll find out again. Uh. Probably this time tomorrow will

271
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: have a much better idea of where breezes. But so far,

272
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: what we've seen Greg from Bridgewater has been underwhelming is

273
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: in terms of his Saints career Week seventeen, which I

274
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: get it's a throwaway game. When he played that game,

275
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: did not play well and was not able to rally

276
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: the troops on the road against the Rams here. Yeah,

277
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 1: who would like to see him, you know, in a

278
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: start in a game. They're prepping him as the starter,

279
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: you know, with starters around him. He didn't have that

280
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: in Week seventeen. Obviously came in here and the Saints

281
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: offense wasn't exactly it was very early in the game,

282
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: but this started out as a defensive struggle. I think

283
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: these two teams are both maybe not totally up to

284
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: speed on what they want to do offensively. I know

285
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: the Saints look pretty good in Week one, at least

286
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: in the second half of that Texans game, but both

287
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: seem like they're getting their feet under them in terms

288
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: of having the offensive they used to have. I just

289
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: wonder if you have the next Steve Young, which Sean

290
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 1: Payton has called Taysom Hill, why is he not getting

291
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: the call over Teddy Bridgewater, who had a ten point

292
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: eight QBR in this game and, like we said, was

293
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: terrible last year in the season. I would imagine it's

294
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 1: because how they've divvied up any snaps behind breeze from

295
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: August through now. But I'm with you that Taysom Hill

296
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: is this electrifying New Age type player who does so

297
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: many things, throws the ball beautifully. I don't know how

298
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: its depending it breezes out for a while. How long

299
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: of a leash do we need with Bridgewater plane If

300
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: it's this way, there is the possibility that Sean Payton knows.

301
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: He might say he's Steve Young or whatever, but he

302
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: knows maybe Taysom Hills a player better in spurts than

303
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 1: as they're down to down quarterback and that will probably

304
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: will learn that for sure, depending on how long he'll

305
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: play him. And if he's just talking trash, then he won't.

306
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: Because Taysom Hills three years older than Teddy Bridgewater. I mean,

307
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: he's not exactly like a rising young prospect right and

308
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: the Saints who are very close to being oh and

309
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: two this year if not for a bailout by Will

310
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 1: Lutz there on Monday Night football. Uh. It's what really

311
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: jumps out to me, um from this game is if

312
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: this Breeze injury is serious, the NFC South becomes a

313
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 1: lot more interesting. It was a kind of a runaway division,

314
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: it seemed like for the Saints. Um. If Breeze misses

315
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: a lot of time, uh, and they do not get

316
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: good quarterback play, that opens the door for everybody in

317
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: that division and that will be interesting to watch. Nobody's

318
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: played well in this division so far. No, No, and

319
00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: Jared go Todd Boles. Todd Boles is flying around, well,

320
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 1: he's killing it his back. It's the redemption season. But

321
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: on the ram side of the ball, Jared got better

322
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 1: than he was in Week one, but still not great,

323
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: but an improvement. So No, need to panic with Golf

324
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: and Girle. And again it's coming further into focus now

325
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: he had his first touchdown of the year. Um In

326
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: this game, Um averaged almost four yards to carry on

327
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: sixteen carries. But there they ran the ball thirty times

328
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: as a team and Girly had just about half those carries.

329
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: They are going to it seems like it's gonna back

330
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: up what people suspected that it's a little bit of

331
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: a running back by committee in l A at least

332
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: early in the season. Maybe it's something that shifts this time.

333
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. And Greg, you mentioned the Rams

334
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: kind of figuring out what they are about at this point,

335
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: which is absolutely fine. And what I love about them

336
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: in early trade is they played a resilient second half

337
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: against the Panthers last week and went away winning that

338
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: game without too many questions. And yes, the Saints in

339
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: this game, that fumble should have been a touchdown for

340
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 1: that defense that got whistled dead mid run to the

341
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: end zone is disgraceful and and everyone calling that game

342
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: in the official on hand said that should never happen.

343
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 1: The rule is you should let it roll and then

344
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: decide later that it's not a fumble, but I didn't.

345
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: It's ridiculous that it happened to the Saints in this

346
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: what essentially was a second helping of last year's disgraceful days,

347
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: disgracefully called NFC Title game. That said, I don't think

348
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,360
Speaker 1: in the end it would have stopped the Rams from

349
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,640
Speaker 1: doing what they did in this game. I really love

350
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 1: the way they played down the stretch two weeks in

351
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 1: a row. It's a sign of a great team when

352
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,199
Speaker 1: you win games that you don't play that well. That

353
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: they okay, the people saying they haven't played that well

354
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: this year, well they want on the road against the Panthers.

355
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 1: They end up winning this game by eighteen. Goff ends

356
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: up throwing ten yards per tempt. The Saints defense gives

357
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 1: up what three straight touchdowns in the second half and

358
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: three possessions? What more do you want? And the girly thing.

359
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: It's a fantasy problem. And I get that's why it's

360
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 1: in our Twitter feed. But if you're the rank, it's like,

361
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 1: who don't care? Who cares? He's getting scent of the

362
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: snapsis the starter? You know, it's a fantasy problem. It's

363
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: not really a rank. Through a few beautiful passes in

364
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 1: this game too. Yeah, his long he had a fifty

365
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: yard hook up with Brandon Cup that broke. Go watch

366
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: that seven yard throw and the other big takeaway. Positive wise, Uh,

367
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup looks like Cooper Cup from before the a

368
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: c L Tarra last year. You mentioned how the NFC

369
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: South is up for grabs. We'll see if the NFC

370
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 1: West is up for grabs. But right now they have

371
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: three to and no teams. You don't see that too often.

372
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: I mean there's there's three the three teams out there

373
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,680
Speaker 1: feeling pretty good about themselves. I'll all go, uh, fourteen port,

374
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: so let's start. Let's all start fourteen or no. I

375
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: predict issues there if you're if you're a game official

376
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 1: that's blowing a play dead. Still after this happens fourteen

377
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: times every year, and everyone else agrees that that makes

378
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: no sense to blow dead, there's gotta be some type

379
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 1: of penalty. I would put the man wake the official.

380
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 1: You go to the nearest American shoreline, You put him

381
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: on a vessel, and the vessel just goes deep out

382
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 1: into sea and we never hear from that human ever again.

383
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: That would all you'd eliminate people doing this. They do

384
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: get graded right, so they get a skull in automatic.

385
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a deeper punishment. They're out, They're gone

386
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 1: into and maybe you get picked up by a vessel

387
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 1: that happens to be in the neighborhood. Maybe you land

388
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: on an island and survive or not. Our problem I

389
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 1: started lately, it's like we were gonna trying to solve

390
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: problems here. These players go out, they have a terrible game,

391
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 1: knowing you know that it happens. Well, it's not a

392
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: ref's league, Greg, Sorry, alright, more injury issues at the

393
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: quarterback position. Let's head to Pittsburgh. Penny is wind to

394
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 1: the right. Let's keep an eye on Will dis leave

395
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,879
Speaker 1: the tight end. Russell takes the snap, looks far aside.

396
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: He's gonna throw downfield. He's gotten that, Jeff, He's gotta touchdown.

397
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: Save Hawks d J Mett. Jeff one on one down

398
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: the far sidelines. Good luck, perfect passed by Russell Wilson,

399
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: a twenty eight yard strike. That's number two hundred one

400
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 1: touchdowns for Russell Wilson. What a Hall of Fame career

401
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: he is having seven nine. Steve Rabel the Seahawks Radio

402
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: network with the call Yes, Russell Wilson danger us through

403
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: for three touchdowns, including that gorgeous twenty eight yard or

404
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: the DK metcalf. That kid can play. The Seahawks hold

405
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: off the Pittsburgh Steelers at Hines Field. The Steelers and

406
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: we'll get to the the Seahawks in a moment, but

407
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: the Steelers are o and two and Greg that's just

408
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: the start of it. Yeah. Ben Roethlisberger left this game

409
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: with an elbow injury just before halftime. In in the

410
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: final drive that he had moving down the field, he

411
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 1: was shaking his elbow quite a bit. Sometimes right until

412
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 1: that he was in a shotgun formation. Sometimes until them

413
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 1: you were giving him some heat, Well he was. He

414
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: was sitting there flapping his arm until the second the

415
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: ball came and then he actually he moved him down

416
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: the field. I believe they scored on that drive, but

417
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: he obviously was in serious pain. It was his left elbow.

418
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,439
Speaker 1: Didn't come back out. They're gonna have tests. And James

419
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: Conner left in the second half and Mason Rudolph came in.

420
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: Played pretty well, uh for the mo us part, but

421
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 1: obviously starting the season oh and two and Roethlisberger being

422
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 1: injured is a disaster. And there has to be a

423
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 1: part of Mike Tomlin and everyone associated with the Steelers

424
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 1: that is even more worried because they realized Ben Roethlisberger

425
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: and James Conner's injuries. James Conner also left in the

426
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 1: second half. We're not the reasons they lost this game.

427
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: I mean, we do that segment in the off season.

428
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: You know what you simpleton's probably don't realize, Like what

429
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 1: you simpleton's don't realize, is the Seahawks were, you know,

430
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: doubling them up in total yardage in the first Yeah. No,

431
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 1: just anyone any hot takes men tomorrow who kind of

432
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: put this on the injuries. Mason Rudolph moved the ball

433
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 1: better than Ben Roethlisberger. It was their defense that collapsed

434
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: in the second half. That's yeah. And James Connor before

435
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: he goes out averages three yards of carry. He did

436
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 1: not have a big week one ever either. And West,

437
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm if I'm a Steelers fan, I'm concerned

438
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: do I have the do I have the horses here

439
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: that do I not actually have the horses here to

440
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: get this thing going, particularly offense? Or this is just

441
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: one of those things where a team looks terrible or

442
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: early September, and by mid November there you know, eight

443
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: and five and no one's talking about it. I agree

444
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: the offense is more of a concern that you know,

445
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,479
Speaker 1: Collinsworth pointed out last week. They are doing some different

446
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: things on defense, they are playing much more a man demand.

447
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: They are younger, they have a lot of young guys

448
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: in that secondary, and it's gonna take some time for

449
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 1: them to get used to that plane style. But on offense,

450
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: you know, they should be they should be hitting. I'm

451
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: not saying on all cylinders, but you gotta be playing

452
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 1: a lot better than they've done these first two weeks.

453
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 1: I feel like one guy they were counting on was

454
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,119
Speaker 1: and this this was a suspicious guy to be counting

455
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: on to some degree, was Dante Moncrief and he's had

456
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 1: to really ugly games in a row and he's cost them,

457
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 1: he's cost them a lot, and that was someone they

458
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 1: you know, you lose Antonio Brown and obviously Juju Smith.

459
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: Schuster is extremely talented, but he's in a different spot plane.

460
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 1: You know, your lead, your lead receiver week after week

461
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 1: and it's not really worked out. He's been held under

462
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,119
Speaker 1: a hundred yards two games in a row based on

463
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: the box score, Moncrieff wasn't a big part of the

464
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 1: game plan. He was targeted once shot off his hands,

465
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 1: so Mason heard his first third and long, it was

466
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 1: the second past of the game, went right through. It

467
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: was a great third, third and long throw to the outside,

468
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 1: went right through Moncrief's hands, off his helmet, up into

469
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 1: the air for an interception. And then Donte Moncrieffe did

470
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 1: not play for the rest of the game, which which

471
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: was a smart move. And all this talk about the

472
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,360
Speaker 1: Seahawks does I mean about the Steelers takes away attention

473
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: from what was a really great, mature game from Russell Wilson.

474
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: I think this showed some progress if you're a Seahawks

475
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: fans of Brian Schottenheimer. In Russell Wilson adapting to what

476
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 1: was happening in the first quarter of the game. They're

477
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: doing their normal dropbacks. The Steelers are absolutely destroying them

478
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 1: up front. The Seahawks offensive line is a big concern

479
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: for me right now. They're not past protecting well, but

480
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: they adjust to the short passing game. Russell Wilson ends

481
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 1: up getting what did he have yards touchdowns in this

482
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 1: game with having to look spectacular without running, without running around.

483
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: It was just very composed, uh, dicing up the Steelers zone.

484
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 1: They kind of went back to his own defense this week,

485
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: and he was picking apart Terrell Edmonds and some of

486
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 1: the young players in the in the Steelers secondary. And

487
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,199
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll also showed a little new leaf too for

488
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: a sixty eight year old celebrated his birthday. Uh for

489
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 1: this game. I think he's either the fifth or the

490
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 1: sixth oldest coach in NFL history. He called passes on

491
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: first and second gown down when they had to go

492
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: kill the clock to end the game after the Steelers

493
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 1: had cut it to two. They did it by throwing

494
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 1: and they went for a fourth and one with two

495
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,439
Speaker 1: minutes left that would have set the Steelers up to

496
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: maybe go for the winning field goal. They end up

497
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: going for it on fourth down. So Pete Carroll still

498
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: learning new things. I guess you can teach an old

499
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: dog new trick. Also has to have the greatest passenger

500
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: ference challenge in NFL history. It's only been two weeks,

501
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: but one one play that the announcer I forget who

502
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 1: was now. I did not think there was any chance

503
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: that he was going to get it overturned and I didn't.

504
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: I didn't think there was a great chance either. It didn't,

505
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: and it totally changed the game. The Seahawks kept the

506
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: ball and ended up scoring. And that is one of

507
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 1: those things where he's going to get the credit. There's

508
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 1: probably someone high up in a booth saying, get on

509
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 1: that now. Hey, if I'm sixty eight years old, just

510
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: come congratulate me for living. He's he's youth. I just

511
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 1: want it. That's that's my goal for sixty eight. Forget

512
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,919
Speaker 1: when in a football What about Greg you getting off

513
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: Seahawks corner in early September and you know, I'm loving

514
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 1: it over there. I mean, they're so accommodating. It's really nice.

515
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: It's been this is what this is what the last

516
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: decade has been like. It's very close, it's crazy, it's fun.

517
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: They'll probably go ten and six and losing the wild

518
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 1: card round. Sanna enjoined dk Metcalf making game changing plays.

519
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 1: What about Will Disley not little at all? Actually, Will

520
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 1: Lee gotta get behind the Will Dislie express, Who's not

521
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 1: all right? Let's move on. Five and a half to go.

522
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: Can the Packers defense hold first down Minnesota? The Green

523
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: Bay eight yard line take to Cook Cousins book likes right,

524
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: Chase Pykeene Lowry looks at right corner of the end

525
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: song clap car dreen Bay football fake spectacular leafing grabbing.

526
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 1: Now the officials are talking it over. It is Green

527
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: bayball and yes, Kevin King high in the air using

528
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: every inch six to gather Wayne Larley of the Packers

529
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 1: radio network with the call Ada deln Kirk Cousins. Kevin

530
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 1: King intercepted Cousins Layton late in the fourth quarter in

531
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: the back of the end zone, the biggest play in

532
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: Green Bay over the Vikings at lambeau Field. Um Mike

533
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: Patton's defense failed out the Packers for a second straight

534
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: week after Aaron Rodgers and company went ice cold following

535
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 1: a red hot start. This is a really strange game, boys,

536
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 1: and when you watch this on Game Ask, you will

537
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: agree because the game begins with after the As we

538
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 1: all know, the Packers struggle mightily in Week one against

539
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 1: the Bears on Thursday night on offense, and in this

540
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: game they come out on fire. Three straight bang bang

541
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: bang uh touchdown drives. They're up twenty one nothing um

542
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: one minute into the second quarter, and you think what

543
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: you have is gonna be a total wipeout. From that

544
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: point on, the game entirely shifted and the Vikings take

545
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: control on both sides of the ball. Really, Um, the

546
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,399
Speaker 1: Packers I have about a hundred and fifty total yards

547
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 1: for the rest of the game period, Uh, don't score

548
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 1: another point, and the Vikings start, you know, chipping away,

549
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 1: chipping away, but they continually continuously Minnesota shot themselves in

550
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 1: the foot in this game. Um. They could not get

551
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: over the hump, and the interception was a perfect uh

552
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: encapsulation of the struggles by the Vikings to get over

553
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 1: the hump. It was a first and goal from the

554
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 1: eight yard line midway through the fourth quarter, and Cousins,

555
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: who really did not have a good game and is

556
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 1: not having a great start to second season in Minnesota,

557
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 1: forces the ball into douvor double coverage bordering on triple

558
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,920
Speaker 1: coverage on first and goal from the eight for the interception.

559
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: It turned out to be their last real chance to

560
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: do anything. And you know, I think Cousins was brought

561
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: um mark to Minnesota to be a steadying presence at quarterback,

562
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: not necessarily be a superstar that um lifts the team

563
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: to greater heights, but be a guy that in games

564
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 1: like this and division showdowns on the road where you

565
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: need a big play, he's a guy can give it

566
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: to you. In this game, he wasn't up to the challenge,

567
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: and the criticism is gonna get louder and louder the

568
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: more games that pile up. Like I mean, I don't

569
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: think that he should have been brought to Minnesota to

570
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: be a superstar, but at the time he was paid

571
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: like one, and they at this point, it feels like,

572
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: you know, you can look at this game and say,

573
00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,239
Speaker 1: Stephen Digs that past interference that nullified that touchdown was

574
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: another I don't want to do this with every game,

575
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: but it seems like the rest are constantly trying to

576
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: out There were three offensive past interference calls that went

577
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: against the Vikings. They were all suspect, none worse than

578
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: the call marks referring to they Kirk Cousins should have

579
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: had a touchdown past two Diggs nothing called on the field.

580
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: As they're bringing out the extra point UH team, they

581
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 1: get buzzed down from upstairs and they call an O

582
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 1: p I uh. They call I think Dalvin Cook for

583
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 1: a screen on a very tiki tach call that was

584
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 1: not made on the field, taking the points off the board,

585
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you when you watch us, you'll see.

586
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 1: So they lose by five points. Okay, that play is

587
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 1: your patent um, Michae Lombardi four point play because they

588
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 1: fail to get in the end zone, kicked the field

589
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 1: goal that costs them four points. Now there's a one

590
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: point difference. The next time, the Vikings getting the end

591
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: zone and score. Stefan Diggs has a long touchdown catch.

592
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 1: Diggs is so angry still that he had the other

593
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: touchdown taken away that in a rage, he takes off

594
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: his helmet and mean mugs the crowd at ambo clearly

595
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: because he was still fired up that he got screwed

596
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: before they flag him for that unsportsmanlike and because there's

597
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 1: a new NFL rule one that I called would cost

598
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: somebody a game back in like June or something. They

599
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: fifteen yard unsports unlike conduct for taking off your helmet.

600
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 1: Not enforced on the kickoff, but on the extra point,

601
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: so backs it up to a forty eight yard extra

602
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 1: point attempt. You know what happens next, it's blocked. That's

603
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 1: the fifth point directed connected directly to that first play.

604
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: They lose by five, and this was such a Vikings loss.

605
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, I was bemoaning my existence and

606
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: moping about the Jets late last week. But Vikings bands

607
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: they know the feeling too, because this is a uniquely

608
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: type Vikings loss that when the season ends and wherever

609
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: they stand up, whether they fall short of the playoffs

610
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 1: or don't have a home game or they just missed

611
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 1: the package in the division, you're kicking yourself because they

612
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: should have won a game. They were down twenty one

613
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: nothing and they just killed him. When when these calls

614
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 1: come down to the sideline, I think it's time that

615
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 1: we have the technology to trace where they've come from,

616
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 1: because this probably sounds good came from like Mike Holmgren's

617
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 1: living room. I mean, who's actually dialing up anyone to say,

618
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 1: take a look at that Dick's catch? It came from

619
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: somewhere in affair. I promise you. I'm just saying someone

620
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: with Packers ties said I'm gonna get on Green Bay's

621
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: side here and cause some issues. Let's not lose track

622
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: of the good news around the Packers there two and

623
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 1: oh under Matt Lafloor. The bad news is they could

624
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 1: not have looked worse now for seven out of eight

625
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: quarters of their season on offense, and you're gonna be

626
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: stunned by how much they struggled, uh to just move

627
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: the ball and and Petton's defense bailing him out over

628
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 1: and over again down the stretch of this game. They

629
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 1: have a lot of work to do. And we got

630
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: our first Rogers barking at Matt Lafleur incident on the sideline,

631
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: which was downplayed, of course, as you'd expect by Rogers afterward.

632
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: But keep an eye on this because they're still iron

633
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: iron ironing out some kinks here. Yeah. ESPNS. Rob Demowski,

634
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 1: great beat reporter, said, if you had under six quarters

635
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: into the season when Rogers would come off the field

636
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: yelling in the direction of Matt the Flower my name

637
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: for him, then you're a winner. Yeah, but survive in

638
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: advance in September football. These teams aren't. No teams are

639
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: going to resemble what they look like now in December.

640
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: And they have these two division wins in their pocket,

641
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 1: one one in Chicago, one against Minnesota, and they're winning

642
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: different types of ways. And if if you're a Vikings fan,

643
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: it does feel like a Viking stipple. It feels like

644
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 1: a Kirk Cousins type of loss because he defies He's

645
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,959
Speaker 1: got great stats, but he's sort of is I mean

646
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: a Kime has made at this point our friend who

647
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 1: we had in the show cut he has all these

648
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: great stats, but all the things that you know, saber

649
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: metrics and people that are in the numbers like don't

650
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 1: necessarily believe in clutch or big moments or anything like that.

651
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 1: Like Kirk Cousins does struggle in big moments. He does

652
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: struggle when it matters. He struggles when he's near the

653
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 1: goal line. Pff at a stat inside the ten yard

654
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: lining in in two thousand seven, he's twenty seven out

655
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 1: of twenty seven in passer rating with of his past

656
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 1: his averaging one point six yards per tempt. So he struggled.

657
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: He gets near the goal line and he struggles. That's

658
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: the problem. It's the inverse of that. When they go

659
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 1: back to the draft of Tom Brady was like, hey,

660
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: all his measurable is not great, but one thing that

661
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 1: couldn't measure was the only ticker inside. Same thing with

662
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: Cousins that can't measure. It's in the heart. And in

663
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 1: that case that that makes up why the guy's not

664
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 1: that good and why his teams are never that good.

665
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 1: They're playing whatever gets it done in a big spot ever. Alright,

666
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 1: and by the way, Dalvin Cook, the one really good news,

667
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: a bit of good news for the Seahawks. Welcome to

668
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: the superstar club. This guy balls out and he will

669
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 1: continue to do so. Let's move on now. It's fourth

670
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,959
Speaker 1: down in two fifteen seconds left to go. Here we go.

671
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 1: Mariota backs to throw brows left side, and it's a

672
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: good place. It's it did Plate on his slant plantern

673
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 1: to a j Plann Chritsy Wilson on cleveris for the Cults,

674
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 1: and the Cults are gonna win. It's the Cults will win.

675
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 1: In week two, with the eleventh seconds left to go,

676
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 1: that was fourth Downd the Titans turning over. They're out

677
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: of time out. They trailed nineteen to seventeen, and the

678
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: Cults are gonna win it uh Matt Taylor the Colts

679
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: Radio Network, Yes, the Colts broke up. A Mariota passed

680
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: intended for a J. Brown fourth and two eleven seconds

681
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 1: to play, clinching Indie's nineteen seventeen win in Nashville. It

682
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,240
Speaker 1: was that kind of day for the Titoons offense, which

683
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 1: struggled to the move the ball against the good Colts defense.

684
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: That brought a lot of heat on Mariota. Uh. Jake

685
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 1: Brisket put the Colts ahead with five minutes to play

686
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,320
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. Uh. And at the end of

687
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 1: the day, West, what you really need to do in

688
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 1: that spot? And we and we all got excited about

689
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 1: what we saw from the Titans in Cleveland last week,

690
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 1: But what you need to do at home if you're

691
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,720
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota and it's time to take the next step

692
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 1: or you're gonna be sent out of town, you need

693
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: to get something done there. And that last possession down

694
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: nineteen seventeen, UM, he barely was able to move the ball.

695
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 1: It was checked down pass uh fifteen yards scramble checkdown

696
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: past spike on a third and two, setting up a

697
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 1: fourth and two that then leads the incompletion. Mariotta after

698
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: the games, that's on me. I should not have clocked

699
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,800
Speaker 1: the ball there and it ultimately cost him. So Mariotta

700
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,240
Speaker 1: fall short again. And this is just a nineteen seventeen

701
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: Titans lost at home to the Colts. That's that nine

702
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 1: and seven Titoons at you right again. So beyond that

703
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 1: one drive that mattered at the end of the game,

704
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: why did they only score seventeen points? They because they

705
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,920
Speaker 1: had no offensive aerial tech. It's just Uh, Derrick Henry

706
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 1: moved the ball just fine. He's he's I think, a

707
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: very good running back. They have that element of it,

708
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: but they you know, there are a couple of things

709
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:37,760
Speaker 1: that really jump out to you. Delaney Walker, after having

710
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: a great week one, he didn't have a big impact

711
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 1: in this game. And then remember Adam Humphries. Remember that. Yeah,

712
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, remember what a big deal that

713
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 1: was that he was going to be a missing piece

714
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: in this offense. Uh, thus far in the season, I

715
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: think he has three catches for four yards in two games.

716
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: It's odd to me that Marcus Marietta. Marcus Mariotta has

717
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: always thrown better between the numbers, but has he ever

718
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 1: had a slot received? But he does now and he's

719
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: not even right, but now he's invisible the slot. Right.

720
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 1: So Mariota, the average one five five and a half

721
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: yards per tempt. You have a chance to set up

722
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 1: the game winning field goal drive with a you know,

723
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 1: reasonably short field, you don't do it. You spike it

724
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 1: on third and in two I mean, that's that. I

725
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 1: don't know if that if he's trying to cover for

726
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,760
Speaker 1: the coaches, probably not, but that's just a I hate

727
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: when teams spike way too much in two minute situations,

728
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,439
Speaker 1: and on a third town with the game on the line,

729
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 1: is unbelievably brutal. And after the game, Mariotta is talking

730
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 1: about how he can't keep taking sacks and can't keep

731
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,919
Speaker 1: getting hit. And this is kind of like we talked

732
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 1: about with Winston the other night, making the same mistakes

733
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 1: five years and these are Mariotta's same mistakes five years in,

734
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,359
Speaker 1: which is taking those sacks and and taking those hit.

735
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 1: Titans writers talked about Mariota being sort of spooked down

736
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: the stretch of this game, and to Greg's point, getting

737
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: hit week after week. He got hit a bunch last week.

738
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: It's lost in the final score of week one, but

739
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: he took some punishment. It happens again, and the big

740
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 1: plays seemed to have dried up in this game. They

741
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: had a bunch less there was three. There was only

742
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: one play in this entire game that was over or

743
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 1: two plays over twenty yards by by the two teams combined. Right,

744
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: Because yeah, on the other side of it, Jake Brisket

745
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 1: averages just over five yards an attempt um. He does

746
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 1: throw three touchdown passes, including the big hook up with

747
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 1: Hilton uh to put them ahead. Uh So the Colts

748
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 1: they get back to one on one, but that won't

749
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:32,880
Speaker 1: be the win. Is only going to be a subplot

750
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:34,879
Speaker 1: early in the week. And this is another story that's

751
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 1: gonna kinda adapt as we get away from the studio.

752
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: This uh, this evening, but out of it a Thierry

753
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 1: in a nineteen seventeen win missed two extra points and

754
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: this comes on the heels of last week where he

755
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 1: missed what was the two field goals in an extra

756
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,880
Speaker 1: point um and after the game, so they they basically

757
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,360
Speaker 1: got beat because of Antierry last week on some level

758
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:01,240
Speaker 1: and then uh it almost cost them big here after

759
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:06,359
Speaker 1: the game, there was a tweet sent out by let

760
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,759
Speaker 1: me make sure it was Stephen Holders. Stephen Holder, I

761
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: think we hear it is Holder. Road just grabbed out

762
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: of Vintieri. Was he As he headed to the bus,

763
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: he said, you'll hear from me tomorrow. I told him

764
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: we don't see him tomorrow, and he said, yeah you will, um,

765
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: which of course makes you think that maybe it's all

766
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 1: over now for Vintieri, whether he's going to retire or

767
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 1: the culture gonna make a move and it's gonna be

768
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 1: some type of joint decision. We'll find out, but that's

769
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 1: what it seemed like. Um after the game, Ominous Jim Mercy,

770
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: the owner, talked about it too, that they're all have

771
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 1: to talk about it. Frank Reich really defended his you know, vinitary,

772
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 1: but he was hurt in camp two, was missing in camp,

773
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 1: and they can't allow it to you know, maybe cost

774
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: him games. It's a huge win for the for in

775
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 1: this division. It's a big game in this division. It

776
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: might not feel like a seismic game in the NFL,

777
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,319
Speaker 1: but for the Colts to end up splitting, you know,

778
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: starting on the road against the Chargers, the Titans, they'll

779
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,720
Speaker 1: take that, and to get a road win in the division,

780
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 1: it is pretty bag. Such a and Titans fans are

781
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 1: gonna think I'm piling on or doing jumping Jack's in celebration,

782
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 1: which would be weird to do in celebration. But just

783
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,239
Speaker 1: such a bad loss. It's like you you come out

784
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,880
Speaker 1: of that Week one against Cleveland on fire, big on yourself.

785
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: Delanny Walkers talking about how nobody believes in us, you

786
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: guys always talking us down. Then you come home against

787
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: and Andrew Luckless Colts and I know we like the

788
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 1: Colts is a still solid team, but you gotta you

789
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 1: gotta show up and you gotta win that game. You

790
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 1: get to two and oh, how how are you supposed

791
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: to be taken seriously as an a f C contender

792
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 1: when this is how you come home? This has been

793
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 1: something you've been railing against for years and the Titans

794
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: have yet to prove you wrong. One bright spot after

795
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 1: several years of chemotherapy. David Questenberry, the lineman, scores his

796
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,919
Speaker 1: first career touchdown in this game. But Dan one quick,

797
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 1: which team for the Titan? Titans one quick, but not

798
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 1: for the It wouldn't be so celebratory had he scored

799
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 1: for the other team. But I just didn't know it's

800
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 1: team on. I knew what used to be with Titans. Man. Professionally, Dan,

801
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: I mean, being a great memorable having a memorable beat

802
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 1: is about being industrious and you know, doing you're part

803
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 1: of the job, but also hitting it at the right time.

804
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 1: And you hit this Kickers thing at the absolute sweet

805
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: spot in history because it would have been largely a

806
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,760
Speaker 1: dead storyline. Week after week, every game we're talking about

807
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:25,279
Speaker 1: has kicker nonsense happening. I wish it wasn't such a

808
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,360
Speaker 1: big deal, because it does. Know, you're very happy that

809
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 1: it is working out for you, very well. You actually

810
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: nailed it. Let's move on. Two point play. Jackson Bille

811
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: going for the league right here from the two yard line.

812
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: Man sure, we've gone three receivers left, panned off four

813
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: net and running left. Dad. He stopped trust and Reid

814
00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:48,399
Speaker 1: got in there. The deed stiffens about two point conversion try.

815
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,880
Speaker 1: The Texans apply thirteen twelve with Bertie seconds left. Mark Vandermere,

816
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 1: Texans Radio Network with the call. With the Jaguars looking

817
00:40:58,040 --> 00:40:59,919
Speaker 1: to steal the game with a two point conversion, justin

818
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: read stuff Leonard four Nette on the goal line, clinching

819
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 1: a win for the Texans. The stop came after Jacksonville

820
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: rookie Gardner Minshew led a long drive that included an

821
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:14,320
Speaker 1: eighteen yard run on fourth and ten and capped it

822
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,360
Speaker 1: with a four yard touched touchdown past the DJ Shark,

823
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: but Doug Moron opted to take it out of Minshew's

824
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 1: hands for neck couldn't get it done. Mark Maron's call

825
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 1: showed onions for days. But shouldn't I think Jackson just

826
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:31,240
Speaker 1: kicked that p a t well. I don't know, because

827
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 1: it's this, it's this is football. If they if they

828
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: hadn't got that thing, we would have said, you know what,

829
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 1: you had a rookie quarterback and you you end the

830
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: game right there, you get it done, and you're out

831
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 1: of there with a big win against the Texans, who

832
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 1: had a down day offensively. So I'm not going to

833
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 1: kill him for that. I kind of like seeing that

834
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: kind of thing that said. I mean, just judging by

835
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: the reaction of fans, people were super down the Maroon.

836
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 1: I I don't know a huge problem with it, with

837
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: the way that their offense was functioning slash not functioning.

838
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,839
Speaker 1: Why because you think they wouldn't have had a great

839
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: chance to score again, that their best chance was from

840
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 1: the two kind of do yes? I kind of do?

841
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 1: I mean, because it was you know, you needed that

842
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: last surge from Minshew and the Jaguars to to even

843
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 1: get into that situation. Their offense was largely lost. They

844
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: didn't have a lot of continuity from from March to March.

845
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,920
Speaker 1: Minshew and I know he was, you know, and I

846
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 1: love the guy, the idea of him, and he was

847
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 1: generating massive Twitter heat he has. He he suffered some

848
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 1: growing pains here because he took four sacks and if

849
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 1: you go back and watch, some of them are just

850
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 1: he's holding the ball too long. I still think he

851
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: throws the ball well. And he showed scrambling ability that

852
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:42,400
Speaker 1: got them out of a couple of jams here, and

853
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 1: he did just enough. I think. Another story in this

854
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: game was the Jaguars defense showed up DeAndre Hopkins held

855
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 1: to forty yards and you know in this case that

856
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: they basically have Jalen Ramsey tracking him, snapped a snap

857
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 1: and that was a great matchup. It was just a

858
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: weird matchup because by the end, Carlos Hide, with twenty

859
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: touches for ninety yards, had way more than double and

860
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,759
Speaker 1: more more carries and way more than double yardage than

861
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,399
Speaker 1: any other skill position player on the Texans, and more

862
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: than anyone in the entire game that it was a

863
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 1: Carlos The game channeled through Carlos Hide, and Duke Johnson

864
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: was essentially lost to Shawn Watson took four sacks of

865
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 1: his own, and at one point he was hobbling around,

866
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,440
Speaker 1: and it's just another reminder that like the you know,

867
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:28,800
Speaker 1: Laramy Tuns left the game for a couple of minutes

868
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: to I just cannot imagine how Watson gets through this

869
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 1: entire season. And this game was not a great performance

870
00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 1: by the Texans offensively. I don't know. This was a

871
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 1: two strange games in the ANFC South. This was part two.

872
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 1: I mean, neither team top three hundred yards, so that

873
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 1: all four a f C South teams, none of them

874
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: top three hundred yards, which is pretty it's pretty rare

875
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 1: if for a team not to get that high in

876
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 1: today's NFL. I don't mind them doing it because Leonard

877
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 1: four Nette on that run. You saw the power first

878
00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,359
Speaker 1: of all. I mean he should have been taken down

879
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,799
Speaker 1: at the three, and he almost got over the goal line.

880
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 1: Some Jaguars fans think he did. I reached the ball

881
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,320
Speaker 1: out at some point. I don't mind the team saying

882
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,760
Speaker 1: like this is who we are. If we can't game

883
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,839
Speaker 1: two yards here after we spread you out and you're

884
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: worried about our passing game and get those two yards,

885
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 1: maybe we're just not gonna be good. I maybe maybe

886
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,399
Speaker 1: they want I don't think they were about to go

887
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 1: march down the field for a touchdown in overtime. I

888
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:25,960
Speaker 1: also think Leonard Bournette is never going to be with

889
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 1: the Jaguars. Thought he was gonna be when they drafted

890
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 1: him with the top five pick. He spent the off

891
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: season losing fifteen pounds working out in Wyoming, and I

892
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 1: still don't see the big playability from him. So you

893
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: you're saying, if they could do it over, you'd take

894
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, not Leonard. Let me go out. I mean,

895
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,840
Speaker 1: why they have boardles. They have boardles. They have boardles.

896
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:49,440
Speaker 1: So who needs a quarterback garden to meet you? Well,

897
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,240
Speaker 1: I know you're down on him, Dan, but he he honestly,

898
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,919
Speaker 1: I don't really. It's like, oh, a rookie sixth round

899
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 1: pick has growing pains. I mean, he had policing Deshaun Watson.

900
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 1: He's also he's also throwing the ball better than some

901
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that no one's gonna yank out of the starting spot.

902
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 1: He's throwing the ball. Well, I don't He was not

903
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 1: the reason they lost. He certainly didn't drag them to

904
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: a win either. It's too bad because if if they

905
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 1: had if they had picked him, if they had picked

906
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 1: the perfect play call. I mean you tweeted that you're

907
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 1: all out, so based on a photo that's like a

908
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 1: year older, I'm just not like Will Brinson misled the

909
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 1: public with an old photo. You listen, you gotta know what. Ultimately,

910
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 1: I'm just not gonna be on the train and I

911
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 1: might really miss out on this because if this, if

912
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,480
Speaker 1: this guy goes off and leads the Jags to an

913
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,359
Speaker 1: amazing run to the playoffs, I'm gonna have egg all

914
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 1: over my face. If you're not really going out, yeah,

915
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,319
Speaker 1: if you're not on the if you're not on the train, though,

916
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 1: he is going to be ultimately destroyed on the show

917
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: with a bunch of secret bits that no one's expecting.

918
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 1: So it's this is all This is again completely completely

919
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: It's completely talked ahead of time by you because you

920
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: were probably upset you didn't lead the Minshew things. So

921
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:08,800
Speaker 1: you're they're jumping out. You're jumping out on the anti

922
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,200
Speaker 1: Minshew things. So if someone doing the best he can

923
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 1: as a backup quarterback who's looked pretty good fails, you

924
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,319
Speaker 1: get to exude some sort of joy in it. That's

925
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 1: that's an enjoyable like I have a fun time with that, Dan,

926
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:25,799
Speaker 1: I would like a list of the strangest you guys

927
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 1: have battled it out on that. I'm dead on. This

928
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:30,560
Speaker 1: has to be right near at the top. And if

929
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,319
Speaker 1: they had just called the perfect play on that two

930
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:35,280
Speaker 1: point version of Minshew through it going into Thursday night football,

931
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 1: we'd be flying in it. What a and still he

932
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:43,520
Speaker 1: can still facial hair? What a cad? No, please, cad,

933
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 1: that's not a compliment. All right? Are we ready to

934
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 1: move on? Yes? I refuse to fight with you about

935
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:54,520
Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew Mark, I'm not gonna do it. I'm not engaging. Well,

936
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 1: you already have engaged because you get your little sneaky

937
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 1: tweets out there and then everybody's everyone else's job to

938
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 1: not respond to it. It's like we all see you

939
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 1: well didn't didn't have anything. Least you are one more

940
00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:08,440
Speaker 1: thing in this game. How this put the cameras on

941
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 1: the goal line. You're worried about a thistle that there's

942
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 1: they didn't have the two camera because this is the

943
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,920
Speaker 1: you know, the CBS is seventeen broadcast. You know it's

944
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 1: the it's the Q team covering this game, and you

945
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,440
Speaker 1: don't have two cameras on the goal line with a

946
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,800
Speaker 1: sensor in the ball, we could know maybe maybe the

947
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,040
Speaker 1: Jaguars won this game. Maybe they'll determine it in like

948
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 1: four when they install this technology. A bunch of players

949
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:30,320
Speaker 1: looked at one angle and thought they did on the

950
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:36,520
Speaker 1: Jaguars silent. Let's move on. ChEI Williams to the left

951
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,200
Speaker 1: of Mahomes, takes the snap right at his belt, turns

952
00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 1: the right hip. Now he's gonna gun it long. He

953
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: wants to Marcus Robinson coming back to the ball. He's

954
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 1: done it in the end zone. Touchdown. Can the Marcus

955
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 1: Robinson it's his turn to have the game of his life.

956
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:58,439
Speaker 1: And the Chiefs at four consecutive touchdowns and Mahomes isn't

957
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 1: a human unsettling towards all right, Mitch Holts. You can

958
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 1: hear his voice. It is fun being the play by

959
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 1: play man of the Kansas City Chiefs right now. The

960
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,040
Speaker 1: Raiders shut the Chiefs out for three quarters on Sunday.

961
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 1: It's a one quarter where the Chiefs did score that

962
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: cost Oakland. Patrick Mahomes through four touchdown passes in the

963
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,760
Speaker 1: second quarter, uh the final one to DeMarcus Robinson, ultimately

964
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 1: ten win at the black hole. Greg good job, good effort.

965
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 1: By the Raiders. But once the Chiefs gotten gear, this

966
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 1: thing turned into exactly what we thought about. Right. You

967
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 1: might you might have a plan for fifteen minutes. You

968
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,399
Speaker 1: might get up in the Chiefs grill and take them

969
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,359
Speaker 1: one on one because they don't have Tyreek Hill, and

970
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 1: think that you can cover a man and maybe dare

971
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes to go over the top four you and

972
00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:42,719
Speaker 1: you're flying around, and the black hole was as loud

973
00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:44,960
Speaker 1: as I've heard it in in a long, long time.

974
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 1: And then adjustments come and then Patrick Mahomes incinerates you

975
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,600
Speaker 1: like old Mitch Hols this said. I mean that it

976
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 1: was as if the Raiders and even the Chiefs were

977
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,279
Speaker 1: kind of left in a puddle of off for the

978
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 1: rest of the game. There wasn't even any scoring in

979
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,040
Speaker 1: the second half because everyone had just decided, you know what,

980
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: that's good for today, Patrick Mahomes, You're so amazing. We

981
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,839
Speaker 1: don't need to see anything more than two hundred and

982
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,920
Speaker 1: seventy eight yards in a quarter where they called some

983
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 1: of his plays back, I mean classic Mahomes kind of sequences.

984
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 1: He throws one of the best throws I've ever seen

985
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:23,400
Speaker 1: across his body on a third and long it was unbelievable.

986
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 1: They call it back because of penalty, So what do

987
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 1: they do? They just throw a forty nine yard touchdown

988
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 1: the next place on third and twenty two. It's the

989
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: big plays for this offense. They're there week after week

990
00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 1: after week, and it translated through an entire offseason. Nothing changed.

991
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 1: Mahomes looks better to me than he did before. This

992
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:45,000
Speaker 1: game weirdly reminded me of Super Bowl twenty two, which

993
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,160
Speaker 1: is a million years ago, but that was the game

994
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:50,600
Speaker 1: where an inferior Broncos team got up ten nothing and

995
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 1: you thought, why are they hanging around? And then the

996
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 1: Redskins with Doug Williams exploded for thirty five second quarter

997
00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,000
Speaker 1: points game over, but no one really scored the rest

998
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:02,359
Speaker 1: of the game. It took that effect by halftime. This

999
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:05,680
Speaker 1: was the team that was John Gruden's, in a lot

1000
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 1: of other coaches major bugbear last year, and they destroyed

1001
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,239
Speaker 1: Oakland twice and it took the same form, and it

1002
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 1: took everything that happened in that nice little Week one

1003
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,839
Speaker 1: storyline that we all enjoyed on national TV and put

1004
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:21,400
Speaker 1: a buzz saw right through it in five minutes. Because

1005
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 1: it's hard to keep that going if you're the Raiders.

1006
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:26,240
Speaker 1: You don't have the talent. It's it's true, but I

1007
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,880
Speaker 1: still think the Raiders could have something here. The Chiefs

1008
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,319
Speaker 1: are gonna are gonna trash teams. Look what they did

1009
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:35,600
Speaker 1: to the Jaguars defense, who played pretty well. Okay, let's

1010
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:39,280
Speaker 1: take out tyreeko Hey, DeMarcus Robinson six for one, seventy

1011
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 1: two and forty four yards, Nicole Hardman a forty two

1012
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:45,520
Speaker 1: yard touchdown, and another seventy two yarder that was called

1013
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:48,279
Speaker 1: back by a shaky penalty. Mahomes would have gone over

1014
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:51,280
Speaker 1: five in this game if it wasn't for that play

1015
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,799
Speaker 1: being called back. I just think the Chiefs and Mahomes

1016
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,800
Speaker 1: at twenty four years old, is doing things we haven't

1017
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 1: seen in NFL history. It's just facts. Well, that's fine,

1018
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,359
Speaker 1: give give the Raiders defense a pass. They're planning against

1019
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,240
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, But why are you giving the Raiders offense

1020
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,600
Speaker 1: a pass. I think that was the most concerning thing

1021
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: in the game that after that quick start, they shot

1022
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 1: themselves in the foot. They moved the ball, uh, they

1023
00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 1: would pass midfield. They had a couple of tough breaks,

1024
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:20,400
Speaker 1: maybe a miscommunication on the goal line was one interception,

1025
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 1: a tipped. That was a bed in a pick play

1026
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,840
Speaker 1: where the where a car through uh you know to

1027
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,399
Speaker 1: an offensive player who kind of got you know, steamrolled

1028
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 1: was another interception. I think this offense is gonna not

1029
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:36,320
Speaker 1: have enough margin for error because they're stationed to station.

1030
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 1: Not enough big plays and if you fall down, they

1031
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 1: might not be a team that can catch up short week. Also,

1032
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,360
Speaker 1: it's a it was a tough week to assign for Oakland.

1033
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:46,719
Speaker 1: I'd be interested to where they come down next week.

1034
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,279
Speaker 1: One thing I've noticed is different in my homes. He

1035
00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:52,720
Speaker 1: moves in the pocket to create more time now better

1036
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,239
Speaker 1: than than he did a year ago, where he's he

1037
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 1: did that last week too. It wasn't perfect, but he

1038
00:51:57,520 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 1: did that last like where he's now backing up in

1039
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 1: in he reads even calling it into some of the

1040
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 1: play calls where in one play like they have him

1041
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,840
Speaker 1: sprinting out to the left and then turning around and

1042
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,960
Speaker 1: and he's just buying time too so that he can

1043
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 1: set up back there and then he's torturing him. It's

1044
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:15,840
Speaker 1: pretty good. Let's move on. Like Mark Jackson and the

1045
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:19,719
Speaker 1: Shotgun Cardinals rush five Jackson crush shot deep far sidelines,

1046
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 1: want a yard line? It is caught by Hollywood ground

1047
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 1: and he's taken down on the Grolmates red zone. First

1048
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:32,160
Speaker 1: Town Ravens. An absolute strike. He put it in the

1049
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 1: only place where he could catch the ball. Had a

1050
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:36,799
Speaker 1: key moment having want a point by these two young

1051
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 1: guys Jerry Sandusky and Jared Johnson on the call for

1052
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 1: w b A L. Lamar Jackson's picture perfect strike to

1053
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,360
Speaker 1: Markey's Hollywood Brown on third and eleven the clincher for

1054
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:49,719
Speaker 1: the Ravens, who got another great performance by their second

1055
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 1: year quarterback win over the Cardinals. Um, everyone's expecting to

1056
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 1: see electricity from Kyler Murray in the season's opening weeks,

1057
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:00,799
Speaker 1: but instead, Gregg the football world is it's fixed on

1058
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,200
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. How good was he on Sunday? I mean

1059
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:09,479
Speaker 1: another two touchdowns, a hundred and twenty yards rushing. Mark

1060
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:12,759
Speaker 1: Andrews goes crazy for I mean, they're an offensive team

1061
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 1: right now. I think some of the Ravens beat writers

1062
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: after watching this game thought, you know, this is different

1063
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 1: than a year ago when they really relied on the

1064
00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:21,919
Speaker 1: defense to carry them and the running game which wasn't

1065
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,480
Speaker 1: quite there today other than Lamar y yards on the ground. Yeah,

1066
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:29,520
Speaker 1: that's funny for Lamar and and this year it's been

1067
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,680
Speaker 1: more Lamar's carrying them. I know it's just two games,

1068
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:33,080
Speaker 1: but this wasn't you know, this was a game where

1069
00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:34,759
Speaker 1: the Cardinals moved the ball. I thought that. I think

1070
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:39,000
Speaker 1: that they are perfectly built roster wise to do what

1071
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:41,520
Speaker 1: they are doing early on. And that is the sixth

1072
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,759
Speaker 1: time in Lamar Jackson's career where he alone is out

1073
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:47,440
Speaker 1: rushed the opposing team. And there's six and oh in

1074
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:49,279
Speaker 1: those games. And I know that's not what they want

1075
00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,880
Speaker 1: to do every week, but it was a huge difference

1076
00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:54,759
Speaker 1: maker today. But what they have now, they're one of

1077
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 1: these teams with two playmaking tight ends. And they also

1078
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 1: which they lacked last year, which they've lacked essentially outside

1079
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 1: of Steve Smith, their wide receiver group has been a

1080
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:10,200
Speaker 1: issue for Ages forever. And Marquis Brown eight catches, eighty

1081
00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 1: six yards, another forty one yard or we saw the

1082
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,920
Speaker 1: big play on the highlight. This is contagious. I mean,

1083
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 1: this team can beat you in a lot of different ways,

1084
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,280
Speaker 1: and then you throw in their defense that essentially really

1085
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 1: kept the Cardinals totally at bay outside of a bunch

1086
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 1: of field goal drives. I wanna bash the Ravens a

1087
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 1: little bit for not drafting Durwin James, for deciding to

1088
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 1: trade down and draft an old tight end like Hayden

1089
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:35,560
Speaker 1: Hurst in the first room. But then they made up

1090
00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:37,880
Speaker 1: for it by drafting Mark Andrews, who looks like a

1091
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 1: pro bowler in his second season. The guy gets a

1092
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:42,319
Speaker 1: hundred yards every week. And I think this is a

1093
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,799
Speaker 1: moral victory too. For the Cardinals there at oh one

1094
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:48,280
Speaker 1: and one, I mean, there are already a million times

1095
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,359
Speaker 1: better offensively than they were a year ago. I mean,

1096
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,919
Speaker 1: they kicked three field goals inside the five yard line,

1097
00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,880
Speaker 1: which is the first time that's happened since nine So

1098
00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:58,440
Speaker 1: it was a little cautious there by Cliff Kingsbury, but

1099
00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 1: the game ended up being moose. Kyler Murray's making Lamar

1100
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:05,400
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerud go over a hundred yards every week. Kyler

1101
00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:07,960
Speaker 1: Murray's thrown for three fifty in a second game in Baltimore.

1102
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 1: I mean, it is pretty good. I can't get over this.

1103
00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,720
Speaker 1: I mean, Lamar Jackson, he throws for two and seventy

1104
00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:18,680
Speaker 1: two yards, two touchdowns, doesn't throw an interception, runs watch

1105
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 1: on sixteen carries his long. It's like Okane, It's two

1106
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:23,879
Speaker 1: weeks in there must have been a sixty yard run

1107
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 1: or something to spike that total. His long was nineteen,

1108
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:28,920
Speaker 1: so he finished for a hundred and twenty and sixteen

1109
00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:32,200
Speaker 1: carries and it was just all him. Look, I guess

1110
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,200
Speaker 1: ten fifteen yard runs over and over again, which has

1111
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:37,319
Speaker 1: to kill a defense. Well, but I also think he's

1112
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:38,839
Speaker 1: the kind of guy and we saw when he when

1113
00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 1: he takes off with the ball, there's four or five

1114
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:44,080
Speaker 1: defenders looking at him wondering what on earth do I do?

1115
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:46,839
Speaker 1: Because his next second and third and fourth step are

1116
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,920
Speaker 1: totally confusing. He's not bashing into the line for three yards,

1117
00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:53,920
Speaker 1: He's swinging off off tackle and completely causing chaos. All right,

1118
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,600
Speaker 1: let's move up now. Is the long back, second down,

1119
00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:00,360
Speaker 1: the thirty nine straight drop, there's a It's by b

1120
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,120
Speaker 1: J w Lambeth. They get it out to the Monster

1121
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 1: first on cricks and taco Hey's done checks down San

1122
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 1: fran Shlet's go. They like these thirty eight or thirty

1123
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 1: nine yarders and what's old? Slick Monster gets the ball

1124
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 1: in his hand for again about that is no nickname

1125
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,840
Speaker 1: because he is slick and there is just no messing around.

1126
00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,279
Speaker 1: Greg Papa and Tim Ryan of the forty Niners Radio

1127
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,000
Speaker 1: San Francisco. I mean, you know, these guys are sitting

1128
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:34,320
Speaker 1: in there on Saturday and they're like one better apartments,

1129
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:37,839
Speaker 1: practicing these little catchphrases and calls. Wait, over and over,

1130
00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:39,920
Speaker 1: did Papa make the move from the Raiders to the

1131
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 1: forty Niners? That's not under my radar? How about that?

1132
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:44,400
Speaker 1: You don't think they pay him better to be in

1133
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 1: a bigger I just imagine like someone like over looking

1134
00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 1: over like the San Francisco Bay and one of those

1135
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: like whitewashed departments where he's just doing it into his

1136
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:57,480
Speaker 1: hand over and over the little microphone call. Yeah please.

1137
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,919
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo tied his career with three down fastest map

1138
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:05,240
Speaker 1: for you. It ran for a bucket seventy two yards

1139
00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:09,400
Speaker 1: of total offense seventeen lacking of the host Bengals. The

1140
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,440
Speaker 1: Niners open their season with back to back roan wins.

1141
00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:14,680
Speaker 1: How about that two and over the first time since

1142
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:18,320
Speaker 1: two thousand twelve. You may remember we were there, most

1143
00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:21,120
Speaker 1: of us. They went to the Super Bowl that season. Greg.

1144
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,160
Speaker 1: The Bengals were frisky in Week one and Week two

1145
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,000
Speaker 1: they were outclassed by the Niners. Well, this was a

1146
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,560
Speaker 1: great example of not overreacting to Week one, which we

1147
00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 1: all did getting excited about the Bengals and being down.

1148
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying we all did. I mean about

1149
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 1: the like and even like being worried about Seattle, and

1150
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:44,480
Speaker 1: then you know, being as worried as we were about

1151
00:57:44,480 --> 00:57:47,760
Speaker 1: the forty Niners who put together the best game that

1152
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:49,440
Speaker 1: we've seen under Kyle Shane. I mean, this is the

1153
00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 1: dream five hundred and seventy two yards, twelve yards per attempt,

1154
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty nine on the ground, and as

1155
00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:01,320
Speaker 1: as good a US as well schemed the game as

1156
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:04,360
Speaker 1: there possibly could be because there's just receivers flying open

1157
00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:07,680
Speaker 1: for Jimmy Garoppolo all throughout the game. The running game

1158
00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 1: was terrific. Mostard had more snaps than Matt Brieda, but

1159
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:13,480
Speaker 1: Matt Brida went twelve one on the ground, so everyone

1160
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:16,760
Speaker 1: was getting there's and and Jimmy g through for two

1161
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,360
Speaker 1: and three touchdowns without even really having a big break

1162
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 1: a sweat made. Some really made a few nice throws too,

1163
00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:24,960
Speaker 1: but a lot of guys were just streaking through that

1164
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:27,760
Speaker 1: Bengal secondary. Both those guys Breeda and most There it

1165
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:30,680
Speaker 1: can play. I'm not convinced that Tevin Coleman he might

1166
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: be the third best runner on this team when he's healthy.

1167
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Jeff Wilson scored two touchdowns in this game,

1168
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:41,760
Speaker 1: maybe the fourth UM few games, both on the East Coast.

1169
00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 1: They win by a combined thirty eight points. And we'll

1170
00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 1: find out that the schedule head is not out of control.

1171
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:51,360
Speaker 1: But it's interesting because you're gonna be you come home

1172
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 1: for two games, one against the Steelers, who are gonna

1173
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:56,919
Speaker 1: be desperate. Uh might be starting Mason Rudolph and Mason

1174
00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 1: rude could be playing. And then he got the Browns.

1175
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:00,960
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens on Monday against the Jets, and

1176
00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 1: but that will be an interesting matchup. But this is

1177
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:05,919
Speaker 1: the best case scenario for San Francisco. When you think

1178
00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:10,160
Speaker 1: back to um, how how bad things looked when Garoppolo

1179
00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 1: was getting his first preseason reps and he played so

1180
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:15,320
Speaker 1: terribly in that game and there and there was just

1181
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:18,760
Speaker 1: this general concern that this was not gonna come together. Well,

1182
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 1: he wasn't very good in Week one West, but this

1183
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:24,040
Speaker 1: game it looks like it was a huge step forward. Um,

1184
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 1: you gotta be feeling pretty good if you're the Niners,

1185
00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 1: right now, well, there is a big black cloud hanging

1186
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 1: over this. It might not be the best case scenario

1187
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 1: because arguably the best player on their team, or at

1188
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:36,800
Speaker 1: least on their offense, is the left tackle Joe Stanley.

1189
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:40,360
Speaker 1: What happened to Joe broken fibula looks like he's out

1190
00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:43,240
Speaker 1: two months and they have very little depth behind him.

1191
00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 1: It'll be interested to see if they move Mike McGlinchey,

1192
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 1: their right right tackle, over the left tackle. But then

1193
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 1: are you hurting two positions with one moved. That's where

1194
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,880
Speaker 1: stacking that win in Tampa, where they didn't play well

1195
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 1: and it was a pretty ugly game that was up

1196
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,440
Speaker 1: for grabs in the last five minutes, is so big.

1197
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:00,280
Speaker 1: Like when you have injuries like that. That's a difference

1198
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 1: sometimes between a good season and bad. The Bengals lose

1199
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:05,040
Speaker 1: the game where they play well on the road last week,

1200
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 1: the Fortins managed to win an ugly if you're the Bengals,

1201
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:12,479
Speaker 1: the twenty five yards rushing in this game, and they

1202
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,320
Speaker 1: were the team that I thought changed a lot of

1203
01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:18,960
Speaker 1: minds last week, and maybe not permanently. West Yours mind

1204
01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:20,920
Speaker 1: was not changed. The three of us I think maybe

1205
01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:24,360
Speaker 1: fell and spell to some degree because they look different

1206
01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:26,280
Speaker 1: to me on offense. I thought that they looked like

1207
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:29,800
Speaker 1: a new like totally. They had a completely different, revised

1208
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 1: plan on offense. And today is is killing you. And

1209
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,720
Speaker 1: the Niners had another big turn over Kwan Alexander coming

1210
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:37,320
Speaker 1: back from his ejection a week ago. That changed the game.

1211
01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:39,840
Speaker 1: And yeah, as as good as the vibes are last week,

1212
01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:42,480
Speaker 1: as Cincinnati, as low as they are now, they're owing

1213
01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:45,360
Speaker 1: to you. Gotta win a football game next week. Let's

1214
01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:51,760
Speaker 1: move on first for the National Footballs got it looks

1215
01:00:51,840 --> 01:01:03,760
Speaker 1: just looks loose, glows deep middle is outstanding yard and

1216
01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 1: the Lions definite league for the first time to day.

1217
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,200
Speaker 1: That was a great job. But Kenney Golladay shielding the

1218
01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:12,640
Speaker 1: defensive back, keeping them on the back side, coming up

1219
01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 1: with a hands catch touch. You don't think they're saying

1220
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: that in their little apartment rooms. Huge estates Uh and

1221
01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 1: uh we know Jons House. That's it's looking pretty good,

1222
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:26,640
Speaker 1: Dan Miller and Loomis Brown with a call for the

1223
01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:30,960
Speaker 1: Lions radio network jaunty Uh. Matthew Stafford threw that go

1224
01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:33,360
Speaker 1: ahead thirty one yard touched up past the Kenny Golladay

1225
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,920
Speaker 1: midway through the fourth quarter. The difference in the thirteen

1226
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:39,360
Speaker 1: ten went over the Chargers at Ford Field. God they

1227
01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 1: put the lines ahead with one after ahead and Darius

1228
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:46,240
Speaker 1: Slay made its stand up with his interception with one

1229
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 1: minute to play. West. This doesn't sound like it was

1230
01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:51,040
Speaker 1: the most beautiful display football, but the Lions will after

1231
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:53,600
Speaker 1: Week three without a loss. They got a tie too,

1232
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 1: but they have a loss. That was a grown man

1233
01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:58,040
Speaker 1: catch by Kenny Golladay with one of the best cornerbacks

1234
01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 1: in the league hanging on his back Casey hey word.

1235
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:03,360
Speaker 1: That was a big play, and the Chargers can blame themselves.

1236
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: They had a three drive sequence. First drive, two touchdowns

1237
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:11,320
Speaker 1: called back on penalty, and then a fumble at the

1238
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:13,920
Speaker 1: one yard line. The next two drives missfield goals on

1239
01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 1: each of them, and it's hard to blame them for

1240
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:20,160
Speaker 1: going with um Ti is it? Thai Long, their kicker

1241
01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 1: who was Special Teams Player of the Week short in

1242
01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:27,000
Speaker 1: Week one. This is a guy who nailed eight eight

1243
01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:29,240
Speaker 1: percent of his kicks as an All star kicker in

1244
01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:32,200
Speaker 1: the CFL. They had reason to believe he could kick.

1245
01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:35,280
Speaker 1: In addition to punt, he misses two with the game

1246
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:38,920
Speaker 1: on the line, and to me, this is the NFL

1247
01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 1: and anybody who tells you that some soccer player can

1248
01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 1: come in and just take over kicking duties, like it's

1249
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 1: no big deal. It's ridiculous analysis, and it's incredibly disrespectful

1250
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:54,040
Speaker 1: day it's it's awful analysis against the pass rush with

1251
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 1: angles to beat, with pressure on you. It's way different

1252
01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:01,439
Speaker 1: than kicking a fifty five yard field going practice. Give

1253
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:04,400
Speaker 1: me a break, give NFL there's a little bit of respect. Well,

1254
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:06,439
Speaker 1: even the great one didn't. Matt Prater missed two kicks

1255
01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,040
Speaker 1: in this game too. It's hard to kick in the NFL,

1256
01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:11,320
Speaker 1: so even even the best of them are missing him

1257
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:15,240
Speaker 1: back and forth. This unfortunately Chargers fans who love Philip

1258
01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:18,880
Speaker 1: Rivers and and know that they're lucky but probably have

1259
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:21,200
Speaker 1: a little part of them that are is like remembers

1260
01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:24,840
Speaker 1: these types of players. The interception by Rivers West at

1261
01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:27,440
Speaker 1: the end of the game, like, I mean, that's just

1262
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:31,000
Speaker 1: a play. You don't expect the veteran quarterback to make. Well,

1263
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,240
Speaker 1: he was picking on Darius Slay all day and then

1264
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: Slay came up big with the game on the line. There.

1265
01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:37,520
Speaker 1: It does feel like if you're a Chargers fan, you

1266
01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:41,439
Speaker 1: keep waking up into the same awful reality of oh,

1267
01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:44,880
Speaker 1: half our team is injured, and oh, our kicker suddenly

1268
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 1: is hurt, and there's a backup kicker flooding kicks and

1269
01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:51,200
Speaker 1: we're losing to the Lions by three points in a

1270
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:53,600
Speaker 1: terrible looking doom. I'll have to go back and pay

1271
01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:56,240
Speaker 1: a little bit closer attention. But to me, we asked

1272
01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:59,320
Speaker 1: the question, how many players can you take away from

1273
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:02,240
Speaker 1: the Chargers and have them be less talented or than

1274
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,560
Speaker 1: the Lions. They were in control of this game for

1275
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:06,560
Speaker 1: most of the game, and they really had no business losing.

1276
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,320
Speaker 1: But maybe the taking the kicker away is making you

1277
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:11,280
Speaker 1: just a little bit less talentant than the Lion. And

1278
01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:13,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's if it's coaching. And I'm

1279
01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:15,760
Speaker 1: sure Stafford got rid of the ball quickly. But the

1280
01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:19,920
Speaker 1: entire Chargers team had one quarterback hit and no sacks,

1281
01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:22,520
Speaker 1: and even that hit was from a cornerback. So they

1282
01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,680
Speaker 1: shut down Joey Bosa in Melvin Ingram West. What happened

1283
01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:28,960
Speaker 1: to our t J Hockenson hype express one catch for

1284
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:32,200
Speaker 1: seven yards on three targets. Well, the Lions offense didn't

1285
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:35,040
Speaker 1: do too much outside of carry on Johnson for a while.

1286
01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 1: It was basically carry on Johnson and Kenny Golladay. Again,

1287
01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:39,840
Speaker 1: I'll have to take a closer look. This was sort

1288
01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:42,480
Speaker 1: of my second game with the Cowboys, so I want

1289
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:44,920
Speaker 1: to take a closer look on Hackinson. But the Lions

1290
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 1: didn't really do much until that Canny Golladay touchdown. And

1291
01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:50,320
Speaker 1: we know West was bathing in that Cowboys action. We

1292
01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 1: were watching that like the that the Dolphins are tanking

1293
01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:56,080
Speaker 1: to try to like avoid being the type of team

1294
01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:58,560
Speaker 1: the Lions are. The Lions are just squarely. It feels

1295
01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:00,600
Speaker 1: like right and headed for the middle all of the NFL.

1296
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,120
Speaker 1: It's not bad. You know you're gonna have some fun weeks.

1297
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:06,480
Speaker 1: Another way to look at it, undefeated, that's true. Let's

1298
01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:10,680
Speaker 1: move up and they have Brown and Gordon to the left.

1299
01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:12,960
Speaker 1: They spread it against the Dolphins with an empty set

1300
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:15,840
Speaker 1: from the guard. Brady takes the snap and retreats. He

1301
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:20,640
Speaker 1: looks left. He fires the back shoulder Brown touchdown. Patriots inside,

1302
01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:25,200
Speaker 1: but you're left pylon. Welcome Anno England kid by the

1303
01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 1: quarterback to the back, shops Antonio O'Brien truss bumping run

1304
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:32,440
Speaker 1: from the slot. Brady signals to the head. He checks

1305
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:35,440
Speaker 1: the playoff and throws a tagger to the orts pylon.

1306
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:38,200
Speaker 1: That's how you run the back shoulder faid, folks, tell

1307
01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:42,520
Speaker 1: elite talent right there. Good for you. Charming Bob Sochy

1308
01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:44,960
Speaker 1: and Scott and Zolak with the call for the Patriots

1309
01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:47,680
Speaker 1: radio network. Antonio Brown caught a touchdown pass and his

1310
01:05:47,760 --> 01:05:52,160
Speaker 1: Patriots debut, and the Patriots ran back two interceptions for touchdowns.

1311
01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:56,640
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick kept coming after his former pupil, Brian Flores

1312
01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 1: to the end forty three zip clown suit competition at

1313
01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:04,800
Speaker 1: the stadium formerly known as Joe Robbie. The Patriots have

1314
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:08,840
Speaker 1: outscored opponent in the first two weeks, and the Dolphins

1315
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:12,680
Speaker 1: have been outscored one oh two to ten. Mark there

1316
01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:15,720
Speaker 1: was only one NFL team on the field in this game.

1317
01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:19,760
Speaker 1: Yes or no Yes for the second week in a row.

1318
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:24,080
Speaker 1: That's true of Miami and thank you. Look get a

1319
01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:27,040
Speaker 1: little cough out there, because this theme annoyed me a little.

1320
01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:31,200
Speaker 1: I mean, they Patriots made it very clear for all

1321
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:34,439
Speaker 1: the people wondering what would happen with Antonio Brown out

1322
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 1: of the gate, that they were going to lean on

1323
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,600
Speaker 1: him right away. He he got the first three catches

1324
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:42,760
Speaker 1: and his fourth was for that score, and when I

1325
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:46,000
Speaker 1: watched the Dolphins, you know, it was thirteen nothing and

1326
01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:47,640
Speaker 1: a half time, and you almost got the sense of

1327
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:50,520
Speaker 1: the Patriots were really not going all out on this.

1328
01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:53,920
Speaker 1: In this situation, Miami cannot on either side of the

1329
01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:58,320
Speaker 1: ball push anyone around at all. It's it's I get

1330
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:00,720
Speaker 1: it what you're trying to do. You're trying to position

1331
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:05,320
Speaker 1: yourself to get a generational quarterback that you can build

1332
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:08,400
Speaker 1: an entire team around you. There's a lot of steps

1333
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,840
Speaker 1: to that. Number One is getting there in real time,

1334
01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:13,400
Speaker 1: which is going to be a very long process for

1335
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:16,520
Speaker 1: everyone involved on this team. And I like the creative

1336
01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:19,480
Speaker 1: approach in terms of NFL team building, but you've got

1337
01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:21,080
Speaker 1: to nail that draft pick. Who even knows that that

1338
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:24,560
Speaker 1: quarterback exists right now? And I just wonder who comes

1339
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:26,880
Speaker 1: out on the other side of this still attached and

1340
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:29,000
Speaker 1: willing to sign up for a year two because it's

1341
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:32,040
Speaker 1: gonna it's already for Brian Flores has to feel like

1342
01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:36,120
Speaker 1: they've been through eighteen weeks. This is impossible to watch,

1343
01:07:36,440 --> 01:07:39,880
Speaker 1: impossible on the eyes. And if your Ryan Fitzpatrick, who

1344
01:07:40,360 --> 01:07:43,440
Speaker 1: was held to about seventeen yards passing on an offense

1345
01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:46,360
Speaker 1: that had about thirty eight yards total at halftime. And

1346
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna be like this week after week. Ryan Fitzpatrick's

1347
01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:51,200
Speaker 1: struggles through two and a half quarters, they bring in

1348
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:53,840
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen to mop up, if that's what you want

1349
01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:56,120
Speaker 1: to call it. A game that is utterly lost, and

1350
01:07:56,160 --> 01:08:01,200
Speaker 1: it's it's we. This is looking like the worst team

1351
01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:04,240
Speaker 1: in NFL history, And I don't care about anyone that's

1352
01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:06,520
Speaker 1: going on Owen sixteen. You look at that Browns team

1353
01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:10,080
Speaker 1: to do that, they were much more competitive in games. Well,

1354
01:08:10,120 --> 01:08:12,240
Speaker 1: how many teams in the NFL history have ever tried

1355
01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:16,040
Speaker 1: to tank their season their entire season? Well, no, that's

1356
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:18,639
Speaker 1: on one hand. I would imagine that's on one hand.

1357
01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:23,320
Speaker 1: But when the processes is ongoing. Minka Fitzpatrick played in

1358
01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:26,519
Speaker 1: this game. He's not expected to play next week because

1359
01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:29,920
Speaker 1: the reports in Miami are that the trade trade is

1360
01:08:29,960 --> 01:08:32,640
Speaker 1: close enough where the Dolphins believe they're gonna get a

1361
01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:35,680
Speaker 1: first rounder back and they and they're probably gonna move

1362
01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:38,280
Speaker 1: on from him. Kenyan Drake might be another guy that

1363
01:08:38,360 --> 01:08:40,560
Speaker 1: gets moved. I think the you know, the defense I

1364
01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:43,479
Speaker 1: think was competitive, kept kept the Patriots from scoring a

1365
01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:45,280
Speaker 1: ton of points until late in the third. The offense

1366
01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:47,760
Speaker 1: had two first downs late in the third quarter. The

1367
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,280
Speaker 1: problem is Danna Jeremiah said this is you know, he

1368
01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:52,120
Speaker 1: watched the tape from last week. He thinks it might

1369
01:08:52,160 --> 01:08:54,320
Speaker 1: be the worst off defensive line in history. Now and

1370
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:56,280
Speaker 1: maybe it's not the worst team in history, but the

1371
01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:59,040
Speaker 1: offensive line is giving Ryan Fitzpatrick and when Josh Rosen

1372
01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:01,080
Speaker 1: is out there apps no chance and it's going to

1373
01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:03,960
Speaker 1: give their offense no chance to move. It's they they

1374
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,080
Speaker 1: have been pushed around to an embarrassing level in two weeks.

1375
01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:09,160
Speaker 1: But I would also look at their defense and say

1376
01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:12,679
Speaker 1: maybe they maybe they were competitive for a stretch today.

1377
01:09:12,840 --> 01:09:14,519
Speaker 1: They also look at last week they were I mean,

1378
01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:17,040
Speaker 1: as they're also playing the Patriots and a defense that

1379
01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:20,240
Speaker 1: is loaded for bear right now, you know, but it's

1380
01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 1: forty three nothing. It's like they like they played two

1381
01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:26,439
Speaker 1: great teams over Week one and two, and so maybe

1382
01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:28,439
Speaker 1: every week won't won't it won't all look like this,

1383
01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:30,880
Speaker 1: But it's hard to get wiped out more than they

1384
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,479
Speaker 1: have in two weeks. And also, you know, these are

1385
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:36,600
Speaker 1: human beings like you. They players are not gonna be

1386
01:09:36,720 --> 01:09:38,920
Speaker 1: all in or even vaguely in, and you're gonna start

1387
01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:41,479
Speaker 1: to play for yourself you've lost huge chunks of the

1388
01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:44,760
Speaker 1: locker room already. These are savvy dudes, like they're not thinking, Oh,

1389
01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:47,280
Speaker 1: we're gonna turn this thing around when the team is

1390
01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:50,800
Speaker 1: week after week trading away your talent. Patriots did have

1391
01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:52,639
Speaker 1: some bad news in this game. They lose their left

1392
01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:56,080
Speaker 1: tackle Isaiah Win. He was replaced by Corey Cunningham, who

1393
01:09:56,120 --> 01:09:59,080
Speaker 1: is yeah foot injury, who was you know, traded for

1394
01:09:59,240 --> 01:10:02,519
Speaker 1: is kind of a placement level player. They started Marshall Newhouse,

1395
01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:04,960
Speaker 1: who signed on the team on Wednesday, and I believe

1396
01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:07,439
Speaker 1: pff Adam graded as the lowest ranked player in the

1397
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:11,599
Speaker 1: entire NFL this week, So that was their thinnest position

1398
01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 1: in the enda. If you're looking for a reason for

1399
01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:16,280
Speaker 1: hope here, Dan, I think that was their thinnest position

1400
01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:18,760
Speaker 1: on the roster by a good deal going into the

1401
01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:21,040
Speaker 1: year and they've lost both their starters in the first

1402
01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 1: two weeks. Well, I don't root for injuries, Greg, but yes,

1403
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:26,040
Speaker 1: I would like someone to challenge the Patriots in the

1404
01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:28,120
Speaker 1: a f C right now. It is not looking good.

1405
01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:29,680
Speaker 1: But I don't take a lot of I don't take

1406
01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,080
Speaker 1: a lot lot of these Dolphins games. As much as

1407
01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:35,720
Speaker 1: it was fun watching Lamar Jackson did last week. Who

1408
01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:37,680
Speaker 1: is this opponent? I would say, you could take this

1409
01:10:37,760 --> 01:10:39,880
Speaker 1: so if you tell me when you when you check

1410
01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 1: this game out, if you disagree Brady and Antonio Brown,

1411
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:45,880
Speaker 1: as much as as annoying as that play call was

1412
01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:50,439
Speaker 1: from the Homerisms, they're like they already are in sync

1413
01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:52,200
Speaker 1: and it is an extreme to the point where Josh

1414
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,920
Speaker 1: Gordon was unnecessary in the first half. They're in sync

1415
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:56,559
Speaker 1: and he's going to be a mass effect. And he

1416
01:10:56,560 --> 01:10:58,720
Speaker 1: only played twenty five snaps, which is really injured, like

1417
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:01,640
Speaker 1: less than Ryan is, you know, about a third as

1418
01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 1: much as Julian Edeman. But they threw the ball to

1419
01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:06,200
Speaker 1: I do wonder if there's a chance is the only

1420
01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:10,360
Speaker 1: game Antonio Brown place for the Patriots the NFL is

1421
01:11:10,439 --> 01:11:14,559
Speaker 1: meeting with his sexual assault accuser on Monday. I think

1422
01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:17,320
Speaker 1: it's very strange that he played in this game with

1423
01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:20,439
Speaker 1: that looming over them, that there's a chance that the

1424
01:11:20,520 --> 01:11:23,320
Speaker 1: NFL could potentially put him on the Commissioner's exemplest. I

1425
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:26,679
Speaker 1: would assume it's possible based on how that meeting goes

1426
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:30,639
Speaker 1: and the findings that they have, and it just why,

1427
01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:34,559
Speaker 1: like why was that necessary until this process? The reports

1428
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:36,800
Speaker 1: that they would not have signed him had they known

1429
01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:39,599
Speaker 1: this was coming. So then you so this is here

1430
01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 1: and now you play him to meet I don't don't

1431
01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:46,240
Speaker 1: hear those reports. That's the thing is if if if

1432
01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:48,040
Speaker 1: I like to hear them right, I'm saying, if you're

1433
01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:52,000
Speaker 1: gonna put that report out there, like show us with like,

1434
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:54,559
Speaker 1: don't play him. Their actions do not match anything else.

1435
01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:56,800
Speaker 1: Put an adult in the room next time. Somebody has

1436
01:11:56,840 --> 01:11:59,599
Speaker 1: to make a decision on this guy. Please, and uh

1437
01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:02,320
Speaker 1: the know I mentioned how Belichick kept them going after

1438
01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:05,800
Speaker 1: Brian flores Um. According to miniche Meda, greg I knows

1439
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:09,240
Speaker 1: scotch ump in arms your hand motions through eight times

1440
01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:12,120
Speaker 1: they had two pick sixes, and Bill Belichick called a

1441
01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:14,760
Speaker 1: zero blitz on the final play of a forty three

1442
01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:18,040
Speaker 1: nothing win. Zero blitz, if you don't know, is when

1443
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:21,120
Speaker 1: you send the house at the passer. He did that

1444
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:25,639
Speaker 1: forty three nothing Well, Rosen couldn't handle it was eighteen.

1445
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:28,560
Speaker 1: I mean, do you think Belichick agree? Stop defending this

1446
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:34,960
Speaker 1: was a joke. Let's move on. Zero blitz second in

1447
01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:40,120
Speaker 1: again three win left side the Sam Josh Allen looks

1448
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:42,200
Speaker 1: for blocks, Gonna try to run it in himself, headed

1449
01:12:42,240 --> 01:12:45,639
Speaker 1: to the corner of the end in touchdown Buffalo Josh

1450
01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:48,880
Speaker 1: Allen his second touchdown run of the year. This one

1451
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,000
Speaker 1: goes six yards around the right side and it looked

1452
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:53,800
Speaker 1: him awful lot like the one left week untouched. There.

1453
01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:57,680
Speaker 1: The Bills pull two guys out in front, gets a

1454
01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:01,639
Speaker 1: great cut block online back for Ryan Connolly to set

1455
01:13:01,760 --> 01:13:04,439
Speaker 1: up the scoring touchdown. John Murphy and Eric would with

1456
01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:07,160
Speaker 1: the call for the Bill's radio network. Josh al ran

1457
01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:09,600
Speaker 1: for one touchdown through for another. The Bill's cruise to

1458
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:13,840
Speaker 1: win over the Giants at MetLife Stadium. It completes a

1459
01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 1: metal and sweep by the Bills to start the season.

1460
01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:21,400
Speaker 1: The Bills defense force two turnovers um Trent Murphy and

1461
01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:25,320
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer both had picks, allowed only three of the

1462
01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:29,080
Speaker 1: giants eleven drives to spend longer than six plays. Uh,

1463
01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:32,120
Speaker 1: that's dominance, mark the Bills in control of this one.

1464
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:37,080
Speaker 1: What an impressive opening two game stretch for the Bills,

1465
01:13:37,160 --> 01:13:39,720
Speaker 1: who obviously, as you said, we're on the road and

1466
01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:42,800
Speaker 1: you guys got tired of me mentioning this to you downstairs.

1467
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:46,479
Speaker 1: But Sean McDermott I thought had an ingenious plan and

1468
01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:48,840
Speaker 1: it's a little O. C. D. And it's a little superstitious.

1469
01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:51,880
Speaker 1: It's in a little bit overorganized to mixed all into one.

1470
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:54,320
Speaker 1: But they stayed at the same hotel. They put the

1471
01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:57,040
Speaker 1: players in the same exact rooms as last week. The

1472
01:13:57,120 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 1: coach wore the same clothing day after day, and they

1473
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:01,679
Speaker 1: went out and they drummed a second New York team.

1474
01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:04,720
Speaker 1: And the Bills to me are a playoff team if

1475
01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:07,800
Speaker 1: they're getting if they keep getting the coaching that they're

1476
01:14:07,800 --> 01:14:11,400
Speaker 1: getting from McDermott and from Leslie Fraser as the defensive coordinator,

1477
01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:14,479
Speaker 1: and surprisingly to me, Brian Daball as well, I think

1478
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:17,800
Speaker 1: has done a really, really good job. Josh Allen has

1479
01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:21,719
Speaker 1: impressed me two weeks in a row by overcoming mistakes.

1480
01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:25,080
Speaker 1: The four turnovers last week could have buried some quarterbacks

1481
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:27,720
Speaker 1: we've seen who struggle with confidence in this in this

1482
01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:30,639
Speaker 1: early season. He bounced back from that. Took a couple

1483
01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:33,680
Speaker 1: of bad sacks early on in this game, didn't phase them.

1484
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:36,559
Speaker 1: They've got just enough on the ground with Frank Gore

1485
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:38,920
Speaker 1: and Devin Singletary. I like Singletary a lot. He got

1486
01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:41,320
Speaker 1: bang banged up in this game. They're getting just enough

1487
01:14:41,360 --> 01:14:43,600
Speaker 1: from Cole Beasley and the rest through the air and

1488
01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:46,599
Speaker 1: their defense at Oliver, when you nail these first round

1489
01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:49,439
Speaker 1: picks like they have at Oliver looks like a star already.

1490
01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:52,080
Speaker 1: He helped generate on a bad pass, a big turnover

1491
01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,480
Speaker 1: in this one. And the Giants are an absolute wandering

1492
01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:57,160
Speaker 1: lost ship and I don't even know where to go?

1493
01:14:57,520 --> 01:14:59,960
Speaker 1: Is it their defense that could not be more confused

1494
01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:03,240
Speaker 1: and leave Bill's players more wide open and has an

1495
01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:06,719
Speaker 1: absolute talent train or an offense and a coaching staff,

1496
01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:09,040
Speaker 1: especially if you're Pat Shermer, I don't know who is

1497
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:12,559
Speaker 1: not allowing you to start your other quarterback at this point,

1498
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:15,280
Speaker 1: just to see what would happen. Because if you continue

1499
01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:17,360
Speaker 1: on this path with Eli Manning, you are not going

1500
01:15:17,439 --> 01:15:19,320
Speaker 1: to be a head coach. You need a spark, you

1501
01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:21,479
Speaker 1: need someone to come in. We've been saying it every

1502
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:23,600
Speaker 1: the entire world has been saying and everyone but the

1503
01:15:23,640 --> 01:15:26,760
Speaker 1: Giants organization. It's not just that Eli Manning is better

1504
01:15:26,800 --> 01:15:28,960
Speaker 1: than we think and we're just piling on him. He

1505
01:15:29,320 --> 01:15:32,840
Speaker 1: was the problem today, along with an offense that after

1506
01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:36,080
Speaker 1: the first drive with Sequon Barkley has no ability to

1507
01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:38,800
Speaker 1: surprise anyone. If you could, you're gonna get scored on

1508
01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:40,799
Speaker 1: on that first drive two weeks in a row. That happens.

1509
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:42,479
Speaker 1: Then you just drop a bomb on him and the

1510
01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:45,599
Speaker 1: Giants have no answer. Jack Rabbit Jenkins after the game

1511
01:15:45,680 --> 01:15:48,120
Speaker 1: through his pass rush under the bus, saying that he

1512
01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:52,080
Speaker 1: can't cover for ten seconds on every play. Uh. And

1513
01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:54,760
Speaker 1: then Pat Shammer said, look, we're not going to take

1514
01:15:54,760 --> 01:15:58,599
Speaker 1: a look at the quarterback situation. Eli is not the problem. Well,

1515
01:15:58,720 --> 01:16:01,080
Speaker 1: I don't. It shocks me at an NFL coach would

1516
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,960
Speaker 1: would come out of this game, uh, saying that there's

1517
01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:06,120
Speaker 1: a they have a lot of problems. They don't they're

1518
01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:08,160
Speaker 1: talent poor, and they have an old quarterback that they

1519
01:16:08,400 --> 01:16:10,360
Speaker 1: have to make a switch up Bill bills right now

1520
01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:12,400
Speaker 1: are QB killers? I mean they am not that they

1521
01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:14,760
Speaker 1: you know, gave Sam Darren momano, but they made him

1522
01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:17,479
Speaker 1: look well, you know, we don't know. They gave him

1523
01:16:17,479 --> 01:16:19,720
Speaker 1: the worst performance. I think Mary's Thomas might have given

1524
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:22,480
Speaker 1: him on that's that's they gave him the worst performance

1525
01:16:22,560 --> 01:16:24,760
Speaker 1: you know a quarterback had last week? Really and it

1526
01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:28,439
Speaker 1: sounds like similar to Eli Manning nine passes defense, it's

1527
01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:32,280
Speaker 1: that secondary is a veteran secondary and they fly to

1528
01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:35,559
Speaker 1: the Ball's a tough, likable well coached team, and maybe

1529
01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:37,519
Speaker 1: the Jets and Giants both end up drafting in the

1530
01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:40,920
Speaker 1: top five. So these two wins won't seem as impressive

1531
01:16:41,080 --> 01:16:42,840
Speaker 1: late in the season, but going on the road the

1532
01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:44,600
Speaker 1: first two weeks of the season, that's pretty good. And

1533
01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:48,000
Speaker 1: everyone you know says, the Patriots have this cake schedule

1534
01:16:48,080 --> 01:16:50,120
Speaker 1: early in the year and it gets harder, but they

1535
01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:51,680
Speaker 1: have the Bills in a couple of weeks. They that

1536
01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:53,519
Speaker 1: could be a matchup of two three and oh teams

1537
01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:57,080
Speaker 1: in Buffalo, because because Buffalo has the Trevor Simeons showing week,

1538
01:16:57,120 --> 01:17:00,160
Speaker 1: and people forget that Buffalo gave New England fits on

1539
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:03,759
Speaker 1: on Monday Night football last season. And so the Bills

1540
01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:06,599
Speaker 1: finally they have their home opener, that's right, their home

1541
01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,560
Speaker 1: opener next week against the Bengals. Bye bye since and

1542
01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:11,920
Speaker 1: then you've got New England at home the next week

1543
01:17:12,320 --> 01:17:16,400
Speaker 1: at one p m. EA. St't don't bumble against Cincinnati, though,

1544
01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:18,880
Speaker 1: because if you stubble against Cincinnati and then get killed

1545
01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:20,920
Speaker 1: in New England, also you're two and two and all

1546
01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:23,120
Speaker 1: this juice is gone. Take care of business next. This

1547
01:17:23,280 --> 01:17:25,679
Speaker 1: doesn't feel to me like the Bills teams of old

1548
01:17:25,760 --> 01:17:28,000
Speaker 1: that have done that systematically year after year, they feel

1549
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 1: a little bit different. I hope you're right. All right,

1550
01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:34,559
Speaker 1: let's hope I'm right. Preshot under center, sucking down six

1551
01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:37,640
Speaker 1: with a play fight for Eli. He's got a lot

1552
01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:39,479
Speaker 1: of time deep for the middle. He's got a man

1553
01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:42,240
Speaker 1: of the middle fields and it's tune for the text

1554
01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:48,840
Speaker 1: down to Dvin Smith. How about Davin Smith? You're all

1555
01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:52,920
Speaker 1: that's just play action in the backfield. They've got no

1556
01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:55,679
Speaker 1: safety in the middle of the field. Devin Smith, because

1557
01:17:55,800 --> 01:18:00,720
Speaker 1: runs away from Josh Mormon. Here, great route, great, great,

1558
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:05,400
Speaker 1: great pass protection, great call by tell him more. Brad

1559
01:18:05,479 --> 01:18:08,280
Speaker 1: Sham the Sham God, and Babe Lappenberg with a call

1560
01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:12,559
Speaker 1: k R l D stay hot. Dak Prescott, the Cowboys quarterback,

1561
01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:15,200
Speaker 1: carved up the Redskins defense with his arms and legs

1562
01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:19,759
Speaker 1: thirty two sixty three touchdowns and sixty nine yards rushing

1563
01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:24,320
Speaker 1: in the thirty one one Cowboys win West Well. Zeke

1564
01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:27,439
Speaker 1: Elliott eventually take full control this offense once he rounds

1565
01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:29,360
Speaker 1: into shape where we all of a sudden in the

1566
01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:34,000
Speaker 1: middle of us sneaky EVV m VP candidate Dak type Dakassans.

1567
01:18:34,320 --> 01:18:36,759
Speaker 1: I absolutely think Dak can be an m VP candidate

1568
01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:40,439
Speaker 1: this year, considering the strength of that roster and what

1569
01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:43,160
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore has done with the offense, and then add

1570
01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:45,760
Speaker 1: on top of it Dak Prescott's improvements starting with the

1571
01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:48,680
Speaker 1: second half of last year. He entered this game with

1572
01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:50,920
Speaker 1: the most passing yards in the NFL over the previous

1573
01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:53,639
Speaker 1: nine games going back to last season. He has been

1574
01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:56,120
Speaker 1: playing well for a long time now, and in this

1575
01:18:56,240 --> 01:18:58,680
Speaker 1: game you saw another playmaker emerge, a guy I've been

1576
01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:01,560
Speaker 1: talking about. Devin Smith led the team in receiving in

1577
01:19:01,640 --> 01:19:04,880
Speaker 1: this game, burned Josh Norman, which seems like not that

1578
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:07,000
Speaker 1: great of a feat. I think we could do that now.

1579
01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:09,960
Speaker 1: Josh Norman is getting burned a lot on deep balls.

1580
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:12,240
Speaker 1: Michael Gallant burned him on another deep ball and Dak

1581
01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:15,040
Speaker 1: missed threw it turned him around on the play um.

1582
01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:18,680
Speaker 1: After last week, Dak had a perfect passer rating sluggish

1583
01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:21,519
Speaker 1: starting this one, and the interception off Randall Cobbs hands

1584
01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:23,920
Speaker 1: was his fault. It was a bad throw, But then

1585
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:26,400
Speaker 1: he completed eighteen straight passes at one point in this

1586
01:19:27,360 --> 01:19:29,639
Speaker 1: He is getting hot with Kelly Moore calling the plays,

1587
01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:31,479
Speaker 1: and I don't think it's a coincidence. You do have

1588
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:34,799
Speaker 1: to point out the caveat that the Giants defense is terrible.

1589
01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:38,760
Speaker 1: The Redskins secondary was injured coming up into this game

1590
01:19:38,840 --> 01:19:41,920
Speaker 1: and suffered another cornerback injury during the game. So I

1591
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:43,840
Speaker 1: think you have to say, let's let's hold off and

1592
01:19:43,960 --> 01:19:46,360
Speaker 1: see if this truly is one of the most dynamic

1593
01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:49,120
Speaker 1: offenses in the NFL. So far this year, they have

1594
01:19:49,280 --> 01:19:53,320
Speaker 1: been Prescott led Dallas on consecutive touchdown drives of night

1595
01:19:53,560 --> 01:19:58,320
Speaker 1: three and seventy five yards. Well, and they're different. You know,

1596
01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:00,760
Speaker 1: Dan has been on Seahawks owner there's no one, and

1597
01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:03,600
Speaker 1: been on Devin Smith corner like Chris Westley, And to me,

1598
01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 1: that is emblematic of the fact that this team is

1599
01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:10,040
Speaker 1: a little deeper that they have guys like Devin Smith

1600
01:20:10,080 --> 01:20:12,120
Speaker 1: and Gout. On a day where you know, Cooper gets

1601
01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:14,880
Speaker 1: forty four yards and Randall Cobb gets twenty four yards,

1602
01:20:15,160 --> 01:20:17,960
Speaker 1: they're still putting up four seventy four doing what a

1603
01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:21,000
Speaker 1: really good team should do, which is control a game

1604
01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:23,920
Speaker 1: on the road against an inferior opponent in the division

1605
01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:26,840
Speaker 1: and just walking into two and no. I think I

1606
01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:29,799
Speaker 1: think you can't lose against the Redskins and the Giants

1607
01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,120
Speaker 1: right now if you're the Eagles or Cowboys. You just

1608
01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:34,439
Speaker 1: need to rack up four wins against those two teams.

1609
01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:37,160
Speaker 1: And on the one series where they sat Zeke for

1610
01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:40,439
Speaker 1: the entire series, Pollard came in. They marched right down

1611
01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:43,759
Speaker 1: the field. Pollard scored and lost a touchdown on a penalty,

1612
01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:45,720
Speaker 1: but they ended up with a field goal on that

1613
01:20:46,080 --> 01:20:48,080
Speaker 1: and it didn't feel like I mean, Zike played well.

1614
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:50,080
Speaker 1: He played much better than he did last week. He

1615
01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:52,120
Speaker 1: went on over a hundred yards because he had a

1616
01:20:52,160 --> 01:20:54,560
Speaker 1: twenty seven yard or to salt the lead late in

1617
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:57,759
Speaker 1: the game. But this was not something where Zeke carried

1618
01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:00,000
Speaker 1: the team. No matter who they're putting back there, they're

1619
01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:02,320
Speaker 1: moving the ball. My biggest concern for the Cowboys, and

1620
01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:04,479
Speaker 1: this is a little more long range after what could

1621
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:06,880
Speaker 1: be who knows a super Bowl season for them, is

1622
01:21:06,960 --> 01:21:10,200
Speaker 1: that Kellen Moore, with the way that coaches are being

1623
01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:13,519
Speaker 1: promoted at such rapid pace, could be a head coach

1624
01:21:13,960 --> 01:21:17,040
Speaker 1: by mid January. And if it, if Dallas doesn't have

1625
01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:21,639
Speaker 1: decisive nature to make him their head coach, I think

1626
01:21:21,680 --> 01:21:23,400
Speaker 1: he's going to be somewhere else. And then you're stuck

1627
01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,519
Speaker 1: with a one and done scenario. There's no way. Jerry

1628
01:21:25,560 --> 01:21:27,559
Speaker 1: Jones is letting this guy out of the building. He'll

1629
01:21:27,560 --> 01:21:29,800
Speaker 1: make him the head coach. You're giving me flashbacks because

1630
01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:32,720
Speaker 1: they did not let Jason Garrett go not to Baltimore

1631
01:21:32,800 --> 01:21:35,599
Speaker 1: when he was the hot rising guy, and Garrett decided

1632
01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:38,800
Speaker 1: to stay as the highest paid assistant in NFL history

1633
01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:42,120
Speaker 1: by far, to stay for another year and then eventually

1634
01:21:42,160 --> 01:21:44,760
Speaker 1: got the job. I'm with you, you can't like it's early.

1635
01:21:46,320 --> 01:21:49,000
Speaker 1: What's the Super Bowl? I think everything's gonna be. But

1636
01:21:49,720 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's debate the move. It's like going

1637
01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:55,240
Speaker 1: to Switzer, except the better. It's not insane. I think

1638
01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:57,559
Speaker 1: I could see fire Jason Garrett if if they won

1639
01:21:57,600 --> 01:22:00,240
Speaker 1: the Super ifew if it is largely identify that it

1640
01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:03,599
Speaker 1: was Kellen Moore's you know they've had Jason Garrett whatever.

1641
01:22:03,680 --> 01:22:06,400
Speaker 1: If it was Kelly Moore's influence, they flipped the switch. Yeah,

1642
01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:09,360
Speaker 1: they might have the top two candidates. Crazy. Why is

1643
01:22:09,400 --> 01:22:12,519
Speaker 1: that crazy? The Cowboys win the Super Bowl, you would

1644
01:22:12,560 --> 01:22:14,960
Speaker 1: fire Jason Garrett to make sure Kellen Moore didn't get

1645
01:22:14,960 --> 01:22:16,720
Speaker 1: out the door. If the if the Cowboys win the

1646
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:18,960
Speaker 1: Singer Bowl, it's because Kellen Moore is the guy pulling

1647
01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:23,640
Speaker 1: the d It's not my coaching Candida. On the other

1648
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:25,880
Speaker 1: side of the Chris Jerry Jones is also the guy

1649
01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:29,200
Speaker 1: who insanely fired Jimmy Johnson. He can do insane things,

1650
01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:30,720
Speaker 1: and he's done them before and they'll do them again.

1651
01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:32,720
Speaker 1: The only in same thing is we're having the conversation

1652
01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:35,680
Speaker 1: after week two. But I like it. We're ahead of

1653
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:37,800
Speaker 1: the game on this one. And if the cow if

1654
01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:41,000
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are a soap opera, if the Cowboys are entertainment,

1655
01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:46,040
Speaker 1: what a better cliffhanger than after being so unbelievably loyal

1656
01:22:46,160 --> 01:22:48,840
Speaker 1: to Jason Garrett for a decade back, they have jumping

1657
01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:51,320
Speaker 1: off this bus too fired up? Right when he wins

1658
01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:53,559
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, no one's gonna see that he altered

1659
01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:56,720
Speaker 1: coming people be coming back for seeing. I should have

1660
01:22:57,040 --> 01:22:59,120
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh and let Ja Gruden go there you go,

1661
01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:02,680
Speaker 1: all right? Um by the much more saying to keep

1662
01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:07,240
Speaker 1: Jake Gruden. Um. Devin Smith tours a c L twice

1663
01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:09,880
Speaker 1: as a second round pick of the Jets. This one's

1664
01:23:09,920 --> 01:23:11,760
Speaker 1: not one of those ones. You're like, h they blew

1665
01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:13,960
Speaker 1: it again the Jets. I'm happy for this guy, like

1666
01:23:14,080 --> 01:23:17,479
Speaker 1: he was basically, uh, he was a great college player,

1667
01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:20,320
Speaker 1: amazing athleticism, and it looked like his body just was

1668
01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:23,240
Speaker 1: never gonna cooperate. He gets the chance with the Cowboys

1669
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:25,200
Speaker 1: and making the most of it. Anybody could have had him.

1670
01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:28,720
Speaker 1: This was his first catches since two thousand sixteen. Um,

1671
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,719
Speaker 1: all right for you on the play clock to one

1672
01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:34,479
Speaker 1: snap to Ryan. Here comes Philly quick prow. This is

1673
01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:41,880
Speaker 1: Leo jos forty five forty thirty ten five touchdown at Latta.

1674
01:23:42,240 --> 01:23:47,000
Speaker 1: Holy goodness, smokes. What a great call by either Matt

1675
01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:52,360
Speaker 1: Ryan or KRK Cutter or both. They showed selloutlets. They've

1676
01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:55,920
Speaker 1: been showing zero coverage and coming with everybody that wouldn't

1677
01:23:55,960 --> 01:23:59,640
Speaker 1: covering somebody. All Atlanta needed was one block. They got

1678
01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:02,799
Speaker 1: the walk on the perimeter and who shows the world

1679
01:24:02,880 --> 01:24:05,960
Speaker 1: class speed to put it in the end zone. When

1680
01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:09,040
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons needed a big play, they went to

1681
01:24:09,160 --> 01:24:13,200
Speaker 1: the big man, Jule Julio Jones, who takes the screen

1682
01:24:13,280 --> 01:24:17,600
Speaker 1: pass perfectly executed and goes fifty four yards to the

1683
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:21,120
Speaker 1: end zone, putting the Falcons ahead, and they stayed ahead.

1684
01:24:21,160 --> 01:24:23,400
Speaker 1: It got a little dicey there at the end with

1685
01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:26,960
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz making a charge deep into Falcons territory, but

1686
01:24:27,040 --> 01:24:30,160
Speaker 1: they get the stop on fourth down and secure a

1687
01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:34,080
Speaker 1: much needed twenty four to twenty win over the Eagles.

1688
01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:37,360
Speaker 1: The Falcons approved to one and one. The Eagles dropped

1689
01:24:37,439 --> 01:24:41,240
Speaker 1: to one in one. Greg this is a um really

1690
01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:45,040
Speaker 1: quality Sunday night football game, especially the second half where

1691
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:48,000
Speaker 1: things got really dicey. Nelson Aglar is not going to

1692
01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:51,080
Speaker 1: sleep tonight. That dropped down the sideline would have put

1693
01:24:51,120 --> 01:24:54,040
Speaker 1: the Eagles back ahead, and then we see what happens

1694
01:24:54,080 --> 01:24:56,559
Speaker 1: with the Falcons, but that's not how it all played out,

1695
01:24:56,600 --> 01:24:58,360
Speaker 1: and the Falcons get the w. You like to see

1696
01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:01,240
Speaker 1: the team that look like the better team for most

1697
01:25:01,280 --> 01:25:03,720
Speaker 1: of the night get the win. That the Falcons moved

1698
01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:05,880
Speaker 1: the ball better for most of the night. They were

1699
01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:07,920
Speaker 1: certainly the healthier team. The Eagles seemed to have the

1700
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:10,559
Speaker 1: worst injury luck in the league. Where you talked about

1701
01:25:10,560 --> 01:25:13,080
Speaker 1: it earlier at the NFC South, how wide open it is,

1702
01:25:13,600 --> 01:25:17,920
Speaker 1: and this was a reminder how quickly Week one can evaporate.

1703
01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:20,400
Speaker 1: Because the Falcons are feeling great right now on a

1704
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,640
Speaker 1: night where Matt Ryan through three interceptions, through some of

1705
01:25:23,720 --> 01:25:27,679
Speaker 1: the passes that everyone like you, the doubters, Dan Handis,

1706
01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:30,000
Speaker 1: you were getting I'm in here and I didn't doubt him,

1707
01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:33,320
Speaker 1: I challenged, I think he heard motivated him. You called

1708
01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:35,960
Speaker 1: them a bum uh. I said, do something right here

1709
01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:37,600
Speaker 1: in a big spot, Matt Ryan, I'm sick of you

1710
01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:39,600
Speaker 1: not coming up big. And what do you do? He

1711
01:25:39,680 --> 01:25:42,000
Speaker 1: came up big, He went to the plane, changed the

1712
01:25:42,080 --> 01:25:44,880
Speaker 1: call at the line of scrimmage, scene that Jim Schwartz

1713
01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:48,080
Speaker 1: once again playing without a safety bringing the house, which

1714
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:51,040
Speaker 1: he brought the house all second half, and Matt Ryan

1715
01:25:51,120 --> 01:25:52,840
Speaker 1: made him pay on that and Jake Matthews with a

1716
01:25:52,920 --> 01:25:56,760
Speaker 1: pancake block. It was just a perfectly executed play by

1717
01:25:56,800 --> 01:25:59,320
Speaker 1: a Falcon's offense that has been maligned in the post

1718
01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:03,639
Speaker 1: Uh Shannahan Shanahan years. But for one night and one

1719
01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:08,880
Speaker 1: play call, everything was right and they and they really

1720
01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:10,920
Speaker 1: should have lost. I mean, if you think about the

1721
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:13,120
Speaker 1: agile ARPI, maybe who knows, maybe Matt Ryan would have

1722
01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:15,840
Speaker 1: gone back down the field to the fact that the

1723
01:26:15,960 --> 01:26:21,000
Speaker 1: Eagles were in this game despite Carson wentzaid about eighty

1724
01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:23,080
Speaker 1: nine yards at some point in the fourth quarter with

1725
01:26:23,160 --> 01:26:26,120
Speaker 1: two interceptions. He had been hit all night. They lose

1726
01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:30,640
Speaker 1: Aushan Jeffrey, they lose the Sean Jackson, and yet the

1727
01:26:30,800 --> 01:26:33,160
Speaker 1: Eagles were still right in that game to to have

1728
01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:36,400
Speaker 1: agil Or drop it and missed the chance to win there.

1729
01:26:36,479 --> 01:26:38,880
Speaker 1: This in so many ways other than the Ryan picks,

1730
01:26:39,120 --> 01:26:40,880
Speaker 1: This is the kind of defense and the kind of

1731
01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:43,200
Speaker 1: game that dan Quinn wants. I think if if the

1732
01:26:43,280 --> 01:26:46,639
Speaker 1: Falcons find a way to not win this game. Okay,

1733
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:52,639
Speaker 1: I forgot about that Garry now? Is that's all a song?

1734
01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:57,640
Speaker 1: She know what? She's croony? Now the newer version is

1735
01:26:57,720 --> 01:27:02,400
Speaker 1: even lesser than that version. Well, she's heading in the

1736
01:27:02,439 --> 01:27:04,800
Speaker 1: wrong direction. So I've got nothing to worry about. I mean,

1737
01:27:05,280 --> 01:27:08,479
Speaker 1: if you're the Falcons, dan Quinn is faced with questions

1738
01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:12,160
Speaker 1: all week about his job security and the direction of

1739
01:27:12,240 --> 01:27:15,519
Speaker 1: a team that you know everyone was all in on

1740
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:18,639
Speaker 1: dan Quinn, and if they start oing too, they look

1741
01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:21,760
Speaker 1: farther removed from that Super Bowl year than ever imaginable.

1742
01:27:22,040 --> 01:27:25,240
Speaker 1: I'm still concerned though, about an offense where Matt Ryan

1743
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:28,000
Speaker 1: is thrown five picks in two games. He had what

1744
01:27:28,120 --> 01:27:32,200
Speaker 1: West seven all year? You mentioned the leading rusher is

1745
01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:35,800
Speaker 1: Edo Smith with thirty two yards. DeVonta Freeman, who's back

1746
01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:38,240
Speaker 1: from injury, is rushing for two yards per carry. I

1747
01:27:38,280 --> 01:27:40,160
Speaker 1: don't know. It's nice to escape with a win here,

1748
01:27:40,200 --> 01:27:43,080
Speaker 1: but the Dafonte Freeman comeback season is not off to

1749
01:27:43,160 --> 01:27:45,760
Speaker 1: a great start. Edo Smith, you mentioned he goes four

1750
01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,200
Speaker 1: for thirty two. The long was twenty eight yards, so

1751
01:27:48,600 --> 01:27:52,560
Speaker 1: he had most on one play. Uh So yeah, I

1752
01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:56,040
Speaker 1: don't think the Falcons are a finished uh product on offense.

1753
01:27:56,080 --> 01:27:59,160
Speaker 1: Hopefully they'll continue to evolved Calvin Ridley and Julio Jones

1754
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:01,840
Speaker 1: again like one of the best one two punches in

1755
01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:03,200
Speaker 1: the league. I just want to get back to the

1756
01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:05,519
Speaker 1: Eagles for a second here, went This is one of

1757
01:28:05,560 --> 01:28:08,719
Speaker 1: my favorite and need to rewatch this game, but especially

1758
01:28:08,760 --> 01:28:11,080
Speaker 1: the second half was one of my favorite Carson Wentz

1759
01:28:11,120 --> 01:28:13,479
Speaker 1: games I've ever seen because he did nothing and the

1760
01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:15,800
Speaker 1: Eagles had tons of issues in the first half with

1761
01:28:15,880 --> 01:28:19,280
Speaker 1: the injuries, including Wins who went into the pop up

1762
01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:22,559
Speaker 1: uh tent for a while after taking that vicious shot

1763
01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:26,280
Speaker 1: to his his chops uh and he was he just had,

1764
01:28:26,760 --> 01:28:29,160
Speaker 1: you know, great will and spirited in the second half

1765
01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:32,120
Speaker 1: of this game. And if alcohol, if alcohol doesn't drop

1766
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:35,400
Speaker 1: that pass, I mean, this is a totally different conversation

1767
01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:38,000
Speaker 1: we're having. You can't get too excited about the Falcons

1768
01:28:38,080 --> 01:28:40,840
Speaker 1: defense on that last stand because they got bailed out

1769
01:28:40,920 --> 01:28:44,679
Speaker 1: on a terrible drop um and then on fourth down

1770
01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:47,920
Speaker 1: went in the face of incredible pressure and a crushing

1771
01:28:47,960 --> 01:28:51,799
Speaker 1: another crushing hit, hangs in tight and delivers another big reception.

1772
01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:55,000
Speaker 1: AlGohar caught this one um and then they you know,

1773
01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:56,920
Speaker 1: they got out of it from there. But I think

1774
01:28:56,960 --> 01:28:59,000
Speaker 1: the Falcons have a lot of issues still, and they're

1775
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:01,200
Speaker 1: gonna feel good about them cells right now, as they should.

1776
01:29:01,880 --> 01:29:03,559
Speaker 1: But I think this team has a lot of work

1777
01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:05,519
Speaker 1: to do. Once is still the guy that. You know.

1778
01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,559
Speaker 1: There were two or three plays tonight where we were

1779
01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:10,840
Speaker 1: like he is dead meat, and then he's escaping rolling,

1780
01:29:11,320 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 1: you know, pulling away from a defender. You think he's

1781
01:29:13,400 --> 01:29:16,000
Speaker 1: pulled down. A second time, unfurls a throw, the one

1782
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:18,120
Speaker 1: where the knee is nearly touching the ground and it's

1783
01:29:18,160 --> 01:29:21,160
Speaker 1: a completion. He's magical to watch when he's on Grady

1784
01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:24,000
Speaker 1: Jarrett with a big game. We talked before the season

1785
01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:26,320
Speaker 1: started how the season could come down to Attack McKinley

1786
01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:29,400
Speaker 1: and Vic Beasley. Beasley not necessarily a good game. He

1787
01:29:29,560 --> 01:29:32,120
Speaker 1: was the guy that that Carson Wentz was carrying on

1788
01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:34,880
Speaker 1: his back on one play as he threw, falling to

1789
01:29:35,040 --> 01:29:37,760
Speaker 1: his knee. But Vick Beasley did kind of run into

1790
01:29:37,840 --> 01:29:41,040
Speaker 1: a key sack late in the game, and McKinley had

1791
01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:44,160
Speaker 1: eight hurries and two QB hits, so he was very active.

1792
01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:47,240
Speaker 1: Uh for the Falcons. I'm not worried about the stab. Boy,

1793
01:29:47,320 --> 01:29:48,880
Speaker 1: give me a break. They're playing the Eagles, one of

1794
01:29:48,920 --> 01:29:51,160
Speaker 1: the super Bowl type of favorite teams. It's week two.

1795
01:29:51,240 --> 01:29:52,680
Speaker 1: You just try to get out of there with the win,

1796
01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:57,479
Speaker 1: and you're you're happy and break. There's no style points.

1797
01:29:57,560 --> 01:29:59,200
Speaker 1: You just put this one in the gang and you

1798
01:29:59,240 --> 01:30:02,479
Speaker 1: hope you keep getting better. Flat and ugly in week one,

1799
01:30:02,560 --> 01:30:04,800
Speaker 1: and this was not a very pretty game either, but

1800
01:30:04,880 --> 01:30:06,599
Speaker 1: they did come out on the right end. Well, there's

1801
01:30:06,640 --> 01:30:08,880
Speaker 1: no NFC South team that any of us can feel

1802
01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:12,240
Speaker 1: good about right now. They should feel the best tonight

1803
01:30:13,479 --> 01:30:16,479
Speaker 1: that they're not the team outside both Noel Sean Jeffrey

1804
01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:20,760
Speaker 1: in this game that feels so four days old. De

1805
01:30:20,840 --> 01:30:24,880
Speaker 1: Sean Jackson leaves with an injury, uh and went still

1806
01:30:24,920 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 1: almost brought this team back, but he doesn't. They have

1807
01:30:28,520 --> 01:30:31,400
Speaker 1: to be worried though about about the injuries. They feels

1808
01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:33,800
Speaker 1: like they have some of the worst injury look in

1809
01:30:33,880 --> 01:30:36,840
Speaker 1: the entire NFL. And sometimes sometimes that's what it comes

1810
01:30:36,880 --> 01:30:39,640
Speaker 1: down like. Sometimes you're I mean, seasons come down to

1811
01:30:39,760 --> 01:30:43,439
Speaker 1: luck probably more than anything that that they make the

1812
01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:47,200
Speaker 1: tackle on that hurts when he's coming back to the ball,

1813
01:30:47,320 --> 01:30:50,400
Speaker 1: so he's half a yard short on fourth down, and

1814
01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:53,080
Speaker 1: maybe that's the difference between winning or losing. You stack

1815
01:30:53,160 --> 01:30:56,320
Speaker 1: up like three of those versus getting unlucky three times,

1816
01:30:56,360 --> 01:30:59,160
Speaker 1: you're eleven and five versus five and eleven. And most importantly,

1817
01:30:59,200 --> 01:31:04,040
Speaker 1: there are reports that this affected uh Rick Holiday's fantasy team,

1818
01:31:04,080 --> 01:31:07,320
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, which certainly directly affects our show,

1819
01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:10,679
Speaker 1: in the result of our show and how we're treated.

1820
01:31:11,080 --> 01:31:14,080
Speaker 1: Why why does that have anything? I don't know anything. Well,

1821
01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:19,280
Speaker 1: because that's what I'm talking about right now. That's why
