1
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: Welcome to NFL Daily, presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook, where

2
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: we're finally sleeping.

3
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: Well because the heat wave is over in Los Angeles.

4
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,240
Speaker 1: I feels so much better here in the Chris Westling

5
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,959
Speaker 1: podcast studio where it's always cool, and I'm here with

6
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 1: the two of the coolest guys at NFL Network, Steve

7
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: Weish and Patrick Claybond.

8
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 3: Well, we're trying to be cool.

9
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 4: I mean, it has cool down, but still half of

10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 4: the county is on fire right now, and I've had

11
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 4: I've had to clarify to people because it's like you

12
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 4: say hot, and it's like, well, it's la hot.

13
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 3: There were a couple of days. Oh yeah, it was

14
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 3: just hot period, Like it would have been hot no

15
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 3: matter where.

16
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 1: I'm sleeping on couches downstairs, because yeah, my bedroom and

17
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 1: forget it, forget about it.

18
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:51,200
Speaker 2: It's not happening.

19
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: So I feel good that it's finally over, and I

20
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,639
Speaker 1: feel good that we're here too.

21
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 2: Week two a fun week.

22
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: Steve, you were you were talking, I remember in the

23
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: newsroom last week, just Week ones. The ultimate liar.

24
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 3: It is.

25
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 4: It's a non true teller to some degree, like some

26
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 4: teams that's got smoked last week or didn't look good,

27
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 4: or they'll get it back, and some teams it came

28
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 4: out like Gangbusters. They'll settle back down to Earth and

29
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 4: then by week three that's when things will stabilize. I

30
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 4: mean a lot of guys didn't play in the preseason,

31
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 4: a lot of guys didn't have to go to the

32
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 4: headset operation and things like that, So these things will

33
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 4: be worked out. I don't think the Bengals are going

34
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 4: on seventeen, you know, so we'll figure some things out.

35
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: Yes, and this is the first time. If you have

36
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: you're checking in that Steve which is in the building

37
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: for the previous show, But we're going to be doing

38
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: this up to every week and that you might not

39
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 1: know Steve unless you listen.

40
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 2: Hopefully you did.

41
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: It was a great show that we're ordering the games

42
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: every week in order of the point spread. So the

43
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: closer it is, we're going to lead the show, which

44
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: means Patrick, we're probably the only show in the country

45
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: leading with Rams Cardinals.

46
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 3: Yes, and that's why we start with what the unknown is? Right.

47
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 3: We journey into the unknown with a divisional matchup in

48
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 3: the afternoon Sunday. The Rams favored by one and a

49
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 3: half points, excuse one point. Actually it's the Cardinals. I know.

50
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 2: I had to reread update.

51
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 3: I'm looking at the Arizona Cardinals, a one point home

52
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 3: favorite against the Rams. Both teams coming into h one

53
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 3: to one. Massive injury report for Los Angeles a Pookinakols

54
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 3: on our Steve Avilla, the lineman had a knee injury.

55
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: Joe Noteboom left the game with a high ankle sprain.

56
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 3: Other than that, miss Lincoln, how was the play? Greg

57
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 3: Is Maddie is nine enough to just go out there

58
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 3: throw doms and beat the Cardinals?

59
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's last week.

60
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: It was one of those weeks where McVeigh and Stafford

61
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: both in Cooper Cup ROAs to the moment so well,

62
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: but then when you don't get a W in that spot,

63
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: like can they do it again? Because the Cardinals don't

64
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: have much of a pass rush, so this is the

65
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: right team and situation for the Rams to maybe get

66
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: a W. But a Curry at left tackle did not

67
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: look like an NFL player. McLendon at right tackle did

68
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: not look like an NFL player. You have a new

69
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: guy at center, so we'll see how he works out.

70
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: Haven Stein, We're not sure if he's going to play,

71
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: but he isn't expected to practice early in the week,

72
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,119
Speaker 1: so they could be missing four of their starting offensive

73
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: linemen and without Pooka Nakua. Yeah, it's all about Cooper

74
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 1: Cup Like can Cooper Cup handle this sort of load?

75
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 2: The Cardos did have maybe the.

76
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: Worst defense in the league last year, and we're one

77
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 1: of the worst or the worst in Week one. So

78
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: if maybe this is a good time to play the

79
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: Rams because mcvay's owned this matchup Steve at least last year.

80
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: They won this game by a combined forty points in

81
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: the two matchup.

82
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 4: But historically they have not played great defensively against Kyler Murray.

83
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 4: He's had some really nice games against the Rams.

84
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 3: The thing is.

85
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 4: Marvin Harrison only three targets, I mean only one catch.

86
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 4: They've got to figure something out. If they're gonna throw

87
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 4: the ball and get it. Oh that guy James Connor,

88
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 4: I mean that's one. Then they're gonna have to run

89
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 4: the football without Kyler. I mean Connor's gonna have to

90
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 4: get his hands on the ball a lot. I think

91
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 4: this Rams defense showed itself some but then showed it

92
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 4: some week. This is some, but it gets a very

93
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 4: good Lions team. But I want to get back to

94
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 4: the Rams offense. Matthew Stafford thrown the ball forty nine

95
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 4: times last week. I mean the Lions have a good front,

96
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 4: they don't have a great front. He can't be throwing

97
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 4: the ball forty nine times a game and the Rams

98
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 4: have a shot. So they've got to find a way.

99
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 3: To run it.

100
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 4: They didn't really try to run it. They kind of

101
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 4: got back into that rut. They've got to try to

102
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 4: establish a run against Arizona. Otherwise this clock game, James Connor,

103
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 4: you just saw them. It could be very interesting.

104
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 3: There's a style issue for the Arizona Cardinals, as they

105
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 3: allowed the worst EPA in the league per dropback when

106
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 3: their opponents used motion. And so here comes Sean McVay. Yeah,

107
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 3: and again they're going to see them twice a year.

108
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 3: But there is one like there's a quote alert out

109
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 3: there that Kyler's being taken out of context because like

110
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 3: the quote graphic that's being used is like, it's not

111
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 3: my job to get Marvin Harrison the ball. But the

112
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 3: way Kyler said it is, I'm going through progressions. I'm

113
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 3: not out there to just get balls to Marvin Harrison,

114
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: and he missed him late in the game. But ultimately

115
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 3: that's not a fair quote to Kyler. It's kind of

116
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 3: being taken out of context. I'm the Rams defensive line

117
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 3: is the spot for me because that first start for

118
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 3: Jared Verse, he had twenty six point one percent pressure

119
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 3: rate the force highest by a rookie, and he's a

120
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 3: monster of all time. And that's it. Like it's like, well,

121
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 3: what are we gonna how are we going to replace?

122
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 3: So they've got all that youth on the defensive line. Yeah,

123
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: they lose one of the best football players we've all

124
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 3: ever seen, but they get good that aspect. I can't

125
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 3: say the same for like Cardinals defenders. Like now, the

126
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 3: Cardinal defender, I'm hanging my hat on right now.

127
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 2: That's like Buddha Baker.

128
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: They're okay at linebacker Kaisier White, but you're right, they

129
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: just they don't have the defensive line. So this might

130
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 1: be a perfect manage the season. I think about the

131
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: how long the season is, and the Rams have the

132
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,119
Speaker 1: forty nine ers next week, you're missing four offensive linemen

133
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: this week. You get your left tackle back. Next week,

134
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: Eric Jackson will be off his suspension. You might get

135
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 1: haven steinback and so it's a manage the season type

136
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: of game.

137
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 2: Can you sneak out a road win in the division.

138
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: You mentioned how good Verse has been and and like

139
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: now you're playing a tough Arizona running game though, and

140
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: that was how you lost last week.

141
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 2: The Lions ran through you at the end.

142
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: And the way Kyler was running last week, I mean,

143
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: he has got that wiggle back. James Connor is awesome.

144
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: They have a nice backup in Trey Benson, and they

145
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: throw a lot at you. So to me, that's kind

146
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: of the key matchup. Can they Can they stop the

147
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: Cardinals running game and just just escape with the win?

148
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: And you mentioned Harrison just to close on him. His

149
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,919
Speaker 1: max speed per next Sensetat's was like insanely low, which I.

150
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 2: Don't know how much to put into that.

151
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: That was just something I saw, but like, I don't know,

152
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 1: maybe he wasn't going downfield, maybe he was thinking too much.

153
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 2: He just he didn't have a great week.

154
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 3: There were some covered shades which I think probably played

155
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 3: into Kyler not necessarily getting back to him towards it,

156
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 3: and again with him being open. Of course, the broadcast

157
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 3: is showing him doing jumping dracks, but Kyler would have

158
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 3: had the three sixty spin no scope like throw one

159
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 3: kind of no look to get him to that in

160
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 3: that point. And that's where like still frames can kind

161
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 3: of be misleading. He was open, but it's not always

162
00:06:58,560 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 3: that ea.

163
00:06:59,080 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 2: I know.

164
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: I do my pick again to spread with Cynthia later

165
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 1: in the week, but Rams as an underdog against the

166
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: Cardinals is pretty tempty.

167
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 3: That is, that's a real tempting play right there. You

168
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 3: may not be alone in that one. Yeah, we do

169
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 3: our game debut coming up here, shout out to that

170
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 3: particular show. Let's go to our next game here, and

171
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 3: that is a one and a half point home favorite

172
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 3: Washington Commander's team. Another set of zero to one divisional

173
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 3: foes in week two, the Giants visiting the Commanders. Jayde

174
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 3: Daniels plays in front of his hometime home crowd for

175
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 3: the first time. Steve the defense didn't do him a

176
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 3: ton of favors of the first time out. Baker Mayfield

177
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 3: had one of the best games of his career touchdowns.

178
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 3: Can they do enough to get Jaden to win over

179
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 3: Dimes and Crew? Yes they can because Dimes. I mean, look,

180
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 3: I say this because my wife is Jamaicas. I'm not

181
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 3: trying to offend He's dimes in Jamaican money, which translated

182
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 3: to about negative one hundred in US currency. Look, I

183
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 3: just think that this is this is a game with

184
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 3: the commanders offensively. You know, you're not gonna have Jaden

185
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 3: Danis run the ball sixteen times. You just cannot do

186
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 3: that every week like last week. But they're gonna run

187
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 3: the ball.

188
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 4: And so if they can get it going against this defense,

189
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 4: they're just gonna milk clock and milk clock. They will,

190
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 4: hopefully if you're a defensive coordinator Joe Witt, be able

191
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 4: to get Danny dimes in some long down and distances,

192
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 4: He's gonna cough a couple up to you. I just

193
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 4: the big story is gonna be like, this is only

194
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 4: week two, but this is a bigger.

195
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 3: Game for Daniel Jones.

196
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 4: Yes, then we think he cannot come out and play

197
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 4: like he did last week, that just will not. Then

198
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 4: the coaching staff is going to sense their vulnerability and

199
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 4: livelihoods and they will make a moveack quarterback change sometime soon.

200
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 4: As much as we thought they're a ride with him

201
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 4: for all seventeen for you know, everything they've done, they

202
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 4: will get desperate because they will sense the vultures coming

203
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 4: out and make a move.

204
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 3: If he comes out and stinks it up like he

205
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 3: did in Week.

206
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 2: One, I'm with you.

207
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 1: I think this could be Daniel Jones's last start as

208
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: wow a Giant. Now he's playing the right opponent that

209
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: their defense was lost last week. Commanders, it's not a

210
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: talented team overall, and so there's certainly a real scenario

211
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: Dariel Jones plays much better this week, the offense scores points.

212
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,959
Speaker 1: But if he looks like he did last week because

213
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: he did not pass pass what I call like the

214
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: NFL QB test, people say it's like, oh, if you

215
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 1: protect him, he's solid.

216
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, that's true.

217
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: But that's true of every NFLQB who has a long career,

218
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: literally everyone. If you can deliver when protected, you'll have

219
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: a long career. Maybe it's a starter, maybe it's a

220
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: fringe starter, whatever it is. Last year, he actually last week,

221
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: actually he was protected pretty well in that game, and

222
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: there were ground balls, there were times where he held

223
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: it forever, and he looked a little gun shy on

224
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 1: short passes. He's always been a little gunshy on throwing

225
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: the long ones. Now he was gun shy and everything.

226
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: And I listened to this John Boy media show talking giants,

227
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: and they had a great insight. So I want to

228
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 1: give them credit. Where they were listening to the radio

229
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: and they're saying the radio call with Bob Papa and

230
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: all that those are team employees. They'd always been defending

231
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: Daniel Joe in the past, and in this time they're

232
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: kind of asking questions about Daniel just and usually the

233
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: radio guys don't start saying that unless the people above

234
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: maybe are saying that. And you do wonder organizationally, if

235
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: they're ready to just be like, hey, you're giving us

236
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: no choice.

237
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe we'll ride with Drew Locke soon if this continues.

238
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, and if you're not safe in your own booths,

239
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 3: like like where where are you safe? And he's not

240
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 3: safe when the defense is playing zone, So the Vikings

241
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 3: played zone eighty six percent of his dropbacks. In Week one,

242
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 3: he was nineteen of thirty seven fo one hundred and

243
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 3: fifty yards and two interw The only quarterbacks worse than

244
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 3: that over the past couple of years were Zach Wilson

245
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 3: and Bryce Young. In a particular game, it's it's not

246
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 3: good for dimes only other side like I'm excited for

247
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 3: Jane Daniels. I know that Todd Bowles defense got a

248
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 3: whole lot of pressure on him. Right, he was one

249
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 3: of five against pressure, but that doesn't account for all

250
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 3: the times he ran away from the pressure right and

251
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 3: he was able to get positive games. In his very

252
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 3: first game, Brian Robinson Junior got tackled at the goal,

253
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 3: one McCaffrey got tackled at the goal on if you're

254
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 3: watching the video version of our show, and Jane Daniels

255
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 3: finished those off and it made it look easy. And

256
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 3: it's funny to see the juxtaposition of these two quarterbacks,

257
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,839
Speaker 3: one on his way in and the other. You guys

258
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 3: said this might be the last shot.

259
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: And now I hear everything you're saying on Jayden and Daniels,

260
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 1: and he's an incredible runner. But our guys at next

261
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: time Stas noted he had the sixth highest scramble rate

262
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: in any game in the last three years of that game.

263
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: And you're right. Sometimes it was the pressure. I think

264
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: they coached them up. Maybe if it comes and you

265
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,199
Speaker 1: don't see your first read open, just go. But there

266
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,959
Speaker 1: were some times where he had pretty open receivers where

267
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 1: their first read looked like it was there and he

268
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,439
Speaker 1: just wanted to run, and he got his helmet knocked

269
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: off a couple of times, so you got to be

270
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,040
Speaker 1: careful there. And he's a fantastic runner, but he missed

271
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: a couple throws and he missed seeing a couple, so

272
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 1: they had a couple.

273
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 2: They had plenty of design runs.

274
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,359
Speaker 1: But I think they would love it if he scrambled

275
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: a little less.

276
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 3: Well.

277
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 4: I mean, look, he's really and I'm just bit a

278
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 4: real here. He plays for Cliff Kingsbury. He is going

279
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 4: to be scrambling. You've heard me say hit Oh, ask

280
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 4: Kyler Murray, as ask Caleb Williams.

281
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 3: Right.

282
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 4: USC's offensive line hasn't looked nearly as terrible this year

283
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 4: as did last year. Cliff Kingsbury has a lot of

284
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 4: protections where he leaves his quarterback in situations you get

285
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 4: rid of it quick or to pull it down and

286
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 4: run it. And he's going to be facing Dexter Lawrence

287
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 4: and Caveon, Thibodeau and guys.

288
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 1: He needs to stand up. By the way, they were

289
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 1: very quiet last week. Burns and cava On that in

290
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: a tough matchup, this is the easier matchup.

291
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 2: They need to get.

292
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 4: Correct correct, much much better offensive line they played against

293
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 4: last week.

294
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,319
Speaker 3: So yep, it's a crossroads for a couple of different

295
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 3: teams and a couple of different aspects. They're looking forward

296
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 3: to that one. In the NFC East, let us go

297
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,680
Speaker 3: to what would have been, guys, the Russell Wilson revenge game.

298
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 3: The Denver Broncos playing host to the Pittsburgh Steelers, who

299
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 3: were on the road a two and a half point favorite.

300
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: Spirit Adidas out of Arceletta who had one of the

301
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 3: calls of the week and our friend Adidie Kinkawalla on

302
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 3: that call, Justin Fields announced as the starter. More Leeway,

303
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 3: there was some opportunity last week where they had a

304
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 3: package put in for Justin Fields. Turns out he's the

305
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 3: starting quarterback. Now he's going up against bow Nicks in

306
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 3: his second game, Greg more bow Knicks.

307
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 2: Let's go.

308
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: I took you know the Steelers that are a road

309
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: dog last week, they're not dopes this week.

310
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 2: They're going to make them the favorite.

311
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 1: I think the Steelers' role because I think now let's

312
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: just embrace Fields like life here. And they knew he

313
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: was going to start last week. I believe during the

314
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 1: week Russell Wilson, according to reports, isn't doing a ton

315
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 1: of practice on Wednesday, so it's not even like they

316
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: really have an option. He has a calf injury, and

317
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 1: it will be interesting to see how much Arthur Smith

318
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: embraces it, because there are strengths here with Justin Fields.

319
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 1: Number one, I believe him to be one of the

320
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: greatest running quarterbacks of all time in terms of his

321
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: instincts as a runner, in terms not just his power

322
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: but avoiding hits, making people miss like he is talented.

323
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: He's not always the most act you're on the short stuff,

324
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: but had some beautiful deeper throws last week to George Pickens.

325
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: He can throw to the outside and he did that,

326
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 1: and yeah, this is a fine matchup. I would say

327
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: it's a neutral matchup to me against the Broncos defense

328
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 1: that's average, and I think all you're gonna look for,

329
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: Steve is if the Steelers offense can be average, they're

330
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: happy because this is a defense first team, and maybe.

331
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 3: They could score a touchdown.

332
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 4: I mean, you're not gonna win week kicking sixth that helps, Yeah,

333
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 4: but you talked about it. I thought Justin Fields to

334
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 4: George Pickens, there is something there. There were some beautiful

335
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 4: throws and some amazing catches. Yeah, some of them came

336
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 4: on scrambles, real plays. That's how it's gonna be with

337
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 4: the Steelers offensively in the passing game. So now is

338
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 4: Denver gonna put Patrick Hirtan on George Pickens. Are we're

339
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 4: gonna see this great you know, one on one match

340
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 4: up with this incredible talent. I would, because I'm really

341
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 4: not fearing too much of the other receiving game. But

342
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 4: in watching a lot of that game, you were right,

343
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 4: Fields was inaccurate with some of his throws.

344
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 3: But I think as the.

345
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 4: Game wore on, even though they weren't getting the ball

346
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 4: the ends on, he was feeling something. There was something

347
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 4: working there. The offensive line had some things working. The

348
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 4: run game was popping.

349
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 3: They did.

350
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 2: He managed the game, made good decisions.

351
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 4: I thought so too. They just didn't get into the

352
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 4: end zone. And that's gonna be a problem. Remember, they're

353
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 4: they're trying, They're they're on the road, right, it's games

354
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: in Denver. They're they're gonna have to adjust. I just

355
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 4: think this is going to be an intriguing game. Some

356
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 4: big plays from the Steelers offense, and then if Sean

357
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 4: and if I'm sorry, if Arthur Smith and tom can

358
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 4: get it going, they'll run the ball in the second half.

359
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 3: But I think was he some big plays early. One

360
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 3: thing that I think Arthur Smith and Mike Tomain will

361
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 3: both be okay with if because Patrick ris witham gave

362
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 3: DK metcalf all kinds of problems. He's one of the

363
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 3: best corners. If not, you can make a case he's

364
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 3: the best up between him and Sauce. But they'll be

365
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 3: perfectly fine with the Broncos defenders turning their backs and

366
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 3: running away from Justin Fields. If you guys want to

367
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 3: play man, I think they will be great. Great point,

368
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 3: comfortable with a great point considering his prediction. As you mentioned,

369
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 3: Greg one of the best to ever do it when

370
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 3: he's out in space. Now, when we saw the Falcons

371
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 3: Fields did take a couple of shots where they're running

372
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 3: quarterback runs, designed quarterback run, and he's just powered it

373
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 3: in he had with absolutely nobody in front of him.

374
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 3: We don't want to see that, it's true, But considering

375
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 3: what their defense did and how the Broncos really struggled

376
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 3: in protection against the Seahawks in Week one, I'm looking

377
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 3: at TJ Watt's potential to just, oh my gosh, TJ.

378
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 2: Watt wants that Defensive Player of the Year. He wants it.

379
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 1: He was insane and Seattle showed how to beat Denver.

380
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: They were all over Bonnicks like they got a lot

381
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: of pressure and they just dared him to throw.

382
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 2: They just said, we dare you to go.

383
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna single you up, We're dare you to go

384
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: more than ten yards. We think our guys can cover

385
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: your guys. I think Pittsburgh can do that too, because

386
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: I just I just think this defensive front can be special.

387
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: I think it might be top three defensive front in

388
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: the entire league. And Garrett Bowles was banged up in

389
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: that game, unsure if he's playing, I guess what he

390
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: does because he never missed his game, but he didn't

391
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: play well last week because he was playing through an injury,

392
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: and so that that's something to watch. And bo Nicks

393
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 1: just he's not gonna have answers if he's under that sit.

394
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 4: I will say this to Falcons of their blocking scheme,

395
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 4: that was like what are they doing? Like did they

396
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 4: realize who they're playing against?

397
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 3: What?

398
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 2: Yeah?

399
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it was absolutely crazy. You think Sean

400
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 4: Payton would be a little wiser to that. So there's

401
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 4: gonna be a lot of quick game stuff like there was.

402
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 4: I mean, bon Nicks only threw a four hundred times

403
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 4: for oh, you know, twenty two yards.

404
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: There was a stat he threw it more than forty

405
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:22,439
Speaker 1: times and had less yards in the game than anyone was.

406
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: It was like the top four in NFL history. I

407
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: think it was Jesse Palmer. There was an old like

408
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger in his last season in like a Rainstorm.

409
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: I kind of remember that game too, And there was one.

410
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: There was one other and that was it with with

411
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:35,360
Speaker 1: Bow last week.

412
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 3: That was the meme game where it was it was

413
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 3: fourth in me in like seven and Ben throws this

414
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 3: flare out to Nase and the entire defense is standing

415
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 3: within three yards of him. There's a shot of nause

416
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 3: in half of the other team. He did eclipse in

417
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 3: terms of yards per attempt one player last week, and

418
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,840
Speaker 3: that's Caleb Williams by one tenth of a yard. If

419
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 3: Keenan Allen catches that ball in the gola and then

420
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 3: then o Nicks would have But it was it was

421
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 3: a rough and every one of their offensive lineman gave

422
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 3: up multiple pressures as well. It was a rough Patrick.

423
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 3: So both you guys.

424
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 4: If Justin Fields comes out and plays even as well

425
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 4: as even as adequately as he played in week one,

426
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 4: maybe a little bit.

427
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 3: Better, is he the guy? To me, there's no more conversations.

428
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 1: No more as long as they that'll get them to

429
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 1: two and zero on the road, as long as they

430
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: have a winning record.

431
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 2: Tomlin is not going back and both road games now.

432
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:24,439
Speaker 3: I ja.

433
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,199
Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of look good, I.

434
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 3: Think look very good. He appeared liberated in author Smith's

435
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 3: offense and the Steelers.

436
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 4: Cordial Patterson's gonna take his touches up. Man, Arthur Smith

437
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 4: can't help himself. You can't have too much cordial Patterson.

438
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 3: In the Year of Our Lord twenty twenty four, Let's

439
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 3: go to Douveall for our next game, that is the

440
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 3: Cleveland Browns, a three point dog on the road at Jacksonville,

441
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 3: where Trevor Lawrence had a cryptic it's time for change

442
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 3: tweet this week with like multiple shots of his head.

443
00:18:58,320 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't see it.

444
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 3: I don't know if Trevor Lawrence is gonna cut his hair.

445
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 3: That's that's kind of the leading things. But the Jags.

446
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,640
Speaker 2: Oh, I thought he was talking about the front office there.

447
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 3: Oh no, just it's like Trent Trent's super saying because

448
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 3: the Jags retweeted it. So the Cleveland Brown struggled on

449
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 3: offense against Michael Parson and the Cowboys. Now here comes

450
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 3: Joshua hans Allen and trey Von Walker, who played pretty well. Gris, Yes,

451
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 3: what do you see taking play? Yeah? You know.

452
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: Traywan Walker rewatching the game was outstanding in the running game.

453
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: He also got a couple of sacks in that game.

454
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,239
Speaker 1: But he is becoming an elite run defender and that

455
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: to me is huge because you're going up against a

456
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 1: team that doesn't have much of a pass game until

457
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 1: proven otherwise in Cleveland and wants to run the ball.

458
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 1: They did a lot of creative stuff and people think

459
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson was making excuses that well except for three

460
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: plays we had the Dolphins locked down. But watching that game,

461
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 1: I kind of agree with them, like they did some

462
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 1: creative things on defense. This is not the Dolphins they're

463
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 1: playing against, and Doug Peterson and this Jaguar seemed desperately

464
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: need to win because the way last season ended, and

465
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: then to start this season, blowing a big lead like that.

466
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 2: He was extremely testy.

467
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: I would say, yeah, Monday's press conference, and this is

468
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 1: just a team, really, two teams, but especially the Jaguars

469
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 1: that desperately just need to get a win and to

470
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 1: relax a little bit.

471
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 4: You know, Look the Browns, we don't know either tackle

472
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 4: is going to be back this week. So you talk

473
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 4: about the pressure coming on DeShawn, they looked and I

474
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 4: think the joke, who is nicked? Right, So what's gonna happen? Okay,

475
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 4: a lot of Mari Cooper. They tried doing it last week.

476
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 4: They just couldn't do it consistently. Now Dallas was giving

477
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 4: them fits. Mike Zimmer came out and gave them a

478
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,919
Speaker 4: lot of different looks, gave them pressures with four There's

479
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 4: just no flow to this offense. And again that's why

480
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 4: week one will it be the ultimate non truth teller,

481
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 4: As I say, comes to the Browns, We'll see, but

482
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 4: I just you know they're all the talking from last

483
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 4: year to Shaun Watson did not on schedule running of

484
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 4: this offense. It's got to be better this week because

485
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 4: I think Actonville is going to be a problem. I

486
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 4: think their offense is gonna get going. We know they

487
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 4: could points on the board, but I think defensively they

488
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 4: could be a thorn for the Browns. And what did

489
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,439
Speaker 4: I say, I've said it on the show. No player

490
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 4: is under greater pressure entering the season than Deshaun Watson,

491
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 4: and with all the noise around him again this week,

492
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 4: the pressure is only going up ten million more degrees.

493
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, And that pressure should you know, honestly never

494
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 3: go away considering the scope and the scale of the

495
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,479
Speaker 3: things that took place back in twenty twenty. But the

496
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 3: actual pressure that the Jags will apply, considering what how

497
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 3: Deshaun looked bouncing up and down in the pocket coming

498
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 3: off roots, making bad throws to Amari Cooper. That actual

499
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 3: tax trouble is going to be a little more of

500
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,400
Speaker 3: a problem. Football field was because James Hudson allowed eight

501
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 3: pressures on fifty six pass blocking snaps in Week one

502
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 3: where the Browns had all this trouble, and now he's

503
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 3: going to deal with Joshua hans Allen who kind of

504
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 3: got locked up by toront Armstead. But it's still going

505
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 3: to be even more of an issue. And we also

506
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 3: get a sneaky, a little bit of a sneaky coaching

507
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 3: heat and oh wait, Jim Schwartz and Doug Peterson going

508
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 3: back at it. Yeah, back and things were good, you know,

509
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 3: they celebrated together, but also there were some concerns the

510
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 3: end of the exit there in Philadelpia.

511
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 2: I like that.

512
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 3: I like that too.

513
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 4: But but speaking of this, I mean, Cleveland defense is

514
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 4: not going to make it easy on Trevor Lawrence either.

515
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,439
Speaker 3: Let's let's let's not overlook that.

516
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 1: I felt good about Trevor's performance. There is more under

517
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 1: center stuff. They had a good run game. Tank Bigsby

518
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: uh popped in that game. There was a couple of

519
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: drops by Kirk that would have really changed it. I

520
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 1: think Brian Thomas Junior is fantastic. One that he had

521
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 1: a stat the highest EPA per route of any rookie

522
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 1: wide receiver in the last X amount of years, like

523
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 1: he was. He just he passes the eye test. So

524
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: I feel better about their offense. And yeah, you talk pressure,

525
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 1: just to wrap up Watson and then we'll take a break.

526
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: On Wednesday, Stefanski did confirm because they hadn't spoken up

527
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: other than a brief statement that they're going to listen

528
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 1: to the NFL about how the NFL handles this, They

529
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 1: said they will start Deshaun Watson on Wednesday. That's not

530
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: a question. And Deshaun Watson did meet with the media.

531
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 1: He didn't really say much about the allegations, although he

532
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: said that they were news to him, and that was

533
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: counteracted by a long statement by the lawyer who represents

534
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 1: the woman suing Deshaun Watson, saying that actually, this has

535
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 1: been going on for ten months and they tried to

536
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 1: reach a settlement separately, so because they knew all the

537
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: media attention that would happen. And yes, the Deshaun Watson

538
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 1: and his lawyer strongly denies those allegations, which are brutal

539
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: to read. And yeah, the alleged victims attorney Tony Busby,

540
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 1: put a lot of that out there today. So let's

541
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 1: take a quick break and we will back with more

542
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: games after this, back on NFL Daily. So excited about

543
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: the Rosenthal ball. That's it, Seahawks Patriots. Yeah, back in

544
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 1: the old round the NFL days, We're going to we

545
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: drafted the games. This would have been my number one

546
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: overall draft pick for the entire season, and I love

547
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 1: that Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma are on it. I

548
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: love Vilma's energy. To me, he is the perfect guy

549
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 1: for this game.

550
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, the perfect for the battle of the heart and

551
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 3: soul of Greg Rosenthal. Because the Seahawks three and a

552
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 3: half point favorites on the road at New England, where

553
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 3: the Seahawks made the type of mistakes that the Bengals

554
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 3: did against the Patriots, but Seattle managed to win. Now

555
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 3: it's are they gonna do the same type of thing?

556
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 3: They allowed two safeties in the first half against the

557
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 3: Denver Bronx, just a calamity of errors, but they managed

558
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,239
Speaker 3: to find a way to win. And here comes New

559
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 3: England where we're getting Christian Gonzalez back.

560
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 2: He looks good.

561
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,199
Speaker 3: It's a solid it's a solid, solid opportunity. Can they

562
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:00,080
Speaker 3: get to Andino though.

563
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 4: Steve, Well, okay, this is where I'm going to play

564
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 4: the West Coast, the West Coast, early coast. Yeah, you

565
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 4: can always get the two and oh but remember I

566
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 4: said Week one is the great non truth teller. And yes,

567
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 4: New England Pageots should be Kobe pid sky high for

568
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 4: what they did to the Bengals. The anyone out to

569
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 4: put it on them, I mean they out physicaled them.

570
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 4: I think they out coached.

571
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 3: Them, So.

572
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 4: This I just but you know, Greg, the Seahawks are

573
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 4: my that's my team. No one's talking about that. I'm

574
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 4: very high on it. Okay, I know you love Gino.

575
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 4: This is just one where I think their ground game,

576
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,119
Speaker 4: we saw Kenneth Walker, we saw them come out and

577
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 4: they rushed for a bunch of yards I think one

578
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 4: hundred and eighty plus yards last week.

579
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 3: I think that continues this week.

580
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 4: I think they'll be able to go there, control the clock,

581
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 4: get things going against a Page's defense that is underrated.

582
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 4: I don't think people are gonna sleep on it for

583
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 4: too much longer. I think it's going to continue to

584
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 4: play well. But I just think this week Seattle, with

585
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 4: its ability to run, set up to play action the

586
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,199
Speaker 4: way Tyler Lockett looked last week, it's going to open

587
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 4: up the field from the other guys. I just think

588
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 4: Seattle's offense is to start getting going.

589
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

590
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 1: Look, if I had to pick the game, that three

591
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 1: and a half sounds about right. I think the Seahawks

592
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: are a favorite, but it wouldn't shock me if the

593
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 1: Patriots won this game. Because of what you said about

594
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: the defense, So what they have, I think most teams

595
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: don't have is a great combination of continuity and experience,

596
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: but not aged experience. If you look at kind of

597
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 1: all the guys on their team, it's it's Dugger. It's

598
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,360
Speaker 1: some second year players like Gonzalez who was great last week.

599
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 2: Now you may maybe travel them. I mean he traveled

600
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 2: around last.

601
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: Week with Chase and will he do it again with

602
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: DK that that would be fascinating and Keon White. So

603
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: some young players, but other guys who've just been in

604
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: the system, not superstars, but Anthony Jennings in the prime

605
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: of his career, Joan Bentley in the prime of his career,

606
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 1: Jilani Tavai has played great ball for them, Kyle Dugger

607
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 1: in the prime of his career.

608
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 2: So okay, it's not a new system either.

609
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: Gerard Mayo was running this defense already and so Marcus Joes.

610
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 2: They just play well together. Jabrill Peppers.

611
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: There's a cohesion and an aggression that takes me back

612
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: to like that two thousand in one days that that's

613
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: their recipe if they're not going to turn into a

614
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion. But what they'll try to do and

615
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 1: we'll see if they can, is just not be sloppy,

616
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,680
Speaker 1: not beat themselves on offense and see if the other

617
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 1: team can make enough mistakes to scrape out.

618
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 2: A bunch of wins.

619
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: Because Bill Belichick's teams, he doesn't like to talk about it.

620
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,640
Speaker 2: Last few years, they were making all sorts of mistakes.

621
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: They were terrible on special teams, a ton of penalties

622
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: like mental errors.

623
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:24,160
Speaker 2: You didn't see that in week one.

624
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 1: So that's that's the promise, because we know the offense

625
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: isn't going to be explosive.

626
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 3: And that's the difference right between the early era Belichick

627
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 3: teams and the late era teams where things got late

628
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 3: and it kind of started to feel like, all, well,

629
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 3: Bill will figure it out. We don't necessarily need this

630
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 3: mid vet guy. He can go somewhere else and make

631
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 3: his money. And then incomes rookies and things are disjoined.

632
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,160
Speaker 3: Matt Patricia's leaving, coming back to Josh ll Daniels, leaven

633
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 3: coming back. It's all but now there's actual real continuity

634
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 3: among the unit. On the secondary, it was twenty twenty

635
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 3: eight routes for Gonzales lined up against Jamark It's fun wow.

636
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 3: Three catches for fifteen yards against Jamar's and again Jamar's

637
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 3: missed up. But it's still Jamar Chase. I don't think

638
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 3: he forgot how to get opens.

639
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 2: It was a great it's exciting.

640
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 4: But if he travels this week, does he travel DK

641
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 4: or do they or did he float him?

642
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:12,199
Speaker 3: Right?

643
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 4: Because he can travel DK part of the time, he

644
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 4: can travel with Jack Smith and jigg with some times.

645
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 3: There's ways to do that. And you talk about the

646
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 3: continuity doing this, but let's also keep.

647
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 4: It real because you over the over runner here is

648
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 4: thirty seven point five, Greg, You make.

649
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 2: That out perfect?

650
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, making how the over runners should be six?

651
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:28,919
Speaker 4: Right, you're you know, you talk about the safetiest You're

652
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 4: talking about a three to two ball game with the

653
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 4: way you're you know, you're really excited about this value.

654
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just saying they can be like a top

655
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: eight defense. Ultimately, it's an offensive league. But the Seahawks

656
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: offensive line certainly struggled early in that game, and they

657
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: figured it out and they were awesome in the second half.

658
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 1: The offense was it is tough to cover up these

659
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 1: three receivers. Kenneth Walker is awesome. I do think that's

660
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: why they probably lose because unlike the Seahawks, like the

661
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 1: Seahawks have both sides of the ball.

662
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 2: You have to be pretty well to say we haven't

663
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 2: talked about their d.

664
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: Right, you could be pretty excited about their new They

665
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: talked about how they were going to play, and they

666
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: were great tackling, flying around.

667
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: They look disciplined.

668
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: So all the good things I said about the Patriots,

669
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: the Seahawks have that on defense more or less two

670
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 1: and they have a lot more explosive playmakers and everyone,

671
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: like even Drod Maya was like, you guys overreacted about

672
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: the offensive line. I said, it was gonna be fine.

673
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: I they gave up the second most amount of pressures

674
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: in terms of dropbacks in the NFL last year. Jacobe

675
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: Prisett and the offense barely moved the ball through the air.

676
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 1: And as much as I'd like to give credit to

677
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: the offensive right Ramandy Stevenson broke like twelve tackles, it

678
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 1: was more just that he it.

679
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 2: Was awesome in that game. It's gonna be tough to

680
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 2: do everything well.

681
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 3: When they added an offensive lineman, when they had six

682
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,959
Speaker 3: offensive linemen, they averaged four yards to play and they

683
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 3: scored their only touchdown of the game. So that's it.

684
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 3: That's how you get that three to two games deep.

685
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 2: Six offensive lineman. Yeah.

686
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 1: They it seemed like they were doing that like every

687
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: other play, which is that's.

688
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 3: All smart coaching. That's smart coaching. All right, we'll leave

689
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 3: that game and get to the Indianapolis Colts on the road.

690
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 3: A three and a half point favorite for the Green

691
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 3: Bay Packers, who were loveless for now we think, and

692
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 3: that's a big factor. The over under seid at forty

693
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 3: and a half points. Josh Jacobs had his best game

694
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 3: last week in terms of yards over expectation since he

695
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 3: led the league in rushing back in twenty twenty two.

696
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 3: And now he's going up against the Colts team that

697
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 3: gave a career day to Joe Mixon and the opener

698
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 3: Gregor he and Malik Willis enough.

699
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 2: I think they have a chance.

700
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: I think that Matt Lafleur has a chance here to

701
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: really flex his coaching muscles because you think about what

702
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: they did well last week. They ran the ball great,

703
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 1: the two plus twenty run, twenty yard plus runs like

704
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: he had three all of last year. Can you build

705
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: a running game around Jacobs? Emmanuel Wilson look good as

706
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: a backup, and Malik Willis as a part of the

707
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 1: run game. I think it would be a fun challenge

708
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: for Lafleur to do. And then you look at this

709
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 1: Colts defense. They really struggled against the run last week.

710
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 1: The Texans really ran them over. So this is it's

711
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 1: a different Packers setup. Normally you would say like they

712
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: have great receiver depth in the they just lost Juju

713
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 1: Brents and they don't have many good cornerbacks.

714
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 2: I don't know if you can really take advantage of

715
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 2: this game.

716
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: This is one where you see if you can have

717
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: the luck the Texans did on the ground against them.

718
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that they're gonna have to because Gus

719
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 4: Bradley's gonna be giving Malik Willis all kind of different looks,

720
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 4: even if he only ends up rushing for and things

721
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 4: like that. They're gonna see a lot of different stuff

722
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,719
Speaker 4: they didn't see against the Eagles. I'm with you, though,

723
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 4: I thought the Packers' offensive line played fairly well in

724
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 4: this game.

725
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 3: I thought they protected fairly well. I thought they ran

726
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 3: blocked fairly well.

727
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 4: The game circumstance was just odd with those guys being

728
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 4: in Brazil, and I like the fact that Matt Lafleur

729
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 4: came out and I was expecting to get a pass

730
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 4: rush from our defense. I was expecting a lot more

731
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 4: from certain things of our offense.

732
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 3: So he was dis paid clearly.

733
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 4: After the game, especially with the way things went on defense.

734
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 3: This is but even with some of the pressures.

735
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 4: That they generated in that game against the Eagles, Anthony

736
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 4: Richardson's a different monster.

737
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 3: And we saw that last year.

738
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 4: He wasn't great passing, but the way he ran the

739
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 4: ball because they didn't have a run game otherwise, This

740
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 4: to me, when I look at this has got the

741
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 4: intrigue bubble okay like no other game, just because there's

742
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 4: still a ton of unknowns about both teams. You know,

743
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 4: the Malik Willis one being the most but still the Colts,

744
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 4: what exactly are they that might that might still take

745
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 4: a minute to figure out.

746
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 3: And I think the thing that we know and the

747
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 3: most unique thing about Anthony Richardson because we comp right,

748
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 3: people make the cam comp and I think the cam

749
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 3: comp is actually Josh Allen. But the way that because

750
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 3: we see Anthony Richardson run over Jalen Petrie in the

751
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 3: end zone, but it's always the first defender to me,

752
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 3: the guy that comes up out of the secondary that

753
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson generally just disregards oh yeah, you're he never

754
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 3: affects that first movement from Anthony Richardson. He's able to

755
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 3: get around that guy almost every single time. I haven't

756
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,239
Speaker 3: seen anybody get him out on the edge. And when

757
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 3: I and I think about the problems that Jalen Hurts

758
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 3: created on the wet field in Brazil against this team,

759
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 3: it's it's tough for me to see because I know

760
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 3: that they've had a lot of Jeff Afley's done a

761
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 3: lot of changes. Xavier McKinney's a great pickup, but just

762
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 3: to stop Anthony Richardson consistently enough. When Malik Willis has

763
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 3: never had a player have over fifty receiving yards in

764
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 3: a game, and that he started, it's just tough for

765
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 3: me to imagine a circumstance where, you know, all credit

766
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 3: to Matt Lafleur that he's able to scheme something up

767
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 3: that's going to overcome. Right.

768
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 1: I mentioned managing the season. Now that the Packers really

769
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 1: managing this very tough spot. Man, if they can just scrape,

770
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 1: they can get one of these two next games. They

771
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: have the Colts this week, you know, in Green Bay,

772
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,480
Speaker 1: and then they're at Tennessee next week. Just getting finding

773
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: one win somewhere here would be so big. But I'm

774
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 1: with you, I would take the Colts. The Colts front

775
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 1: is no joke. They can get after it when they

776
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 1: do pass the ball, and the Packers defense was disappointing

777
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: that that is kind of why I don't lean on

778
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 1: a potential.

779
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 3: Upset here and all the things that we're saying about

780
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 3: Brian Thomas Jr. If if Richardson's able to hit Ady

781
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 3: Mitchell on a couple of those balls, we're saying all

782
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 3: those Thames about ad Mitchell, and I think they may

783
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,959
Speaker 3: connect in this one plenty opportunity. Looking forward to that game,

784
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 3: maybe Malik Willis comes out and shocks the world, and

785
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 3: I'd be on the happiest part.

786
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 4: They gotta do it early on the fifteenth places that

787
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 4: they're statuscripted get him early.

788
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 3: From there, we go to the New York Jets visiting

789
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 3: the Tennessee Titans, who are a three and a half

790
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 3: point dog at home against Aaron Rodgers and the Jets

791
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 3: will Levis vowing to play better after a turnover laid

792
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 3: in the second a half, do them the Titans and

793
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 3: the opener of their defense limited Kayleb Williams and the

794
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 3: Bears to under one hundred and fifty yards were very impressive.

795
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 3: Can we'll let us keep away from those mistakes against

796
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:38,919
Speaker 3: the Jets defense.

797
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 4: We'll see, because I thought the Jets defense was a

798
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 4: major problem.

799
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 3: You know, in the game against the Niners.

800
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, the Niners this and that, but when you got

801
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 4: Jordan Mason coming out and gashing you like he's Walter Payton, right,

802
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 4: they were poor against the run.

803
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 3: Rock Purty to me, was rarely under pressure.

804
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 4: I think, you know, the look, the Jets are going

805
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 4: to be better, but coming off the short week, I'm

806
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 4: just not sure defensively if they're going to be great.

807
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 4: Yet this is an opportunity to get get to get better.

808
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 4: I just something just did not look right with the

809
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:19,240
Speaker 4: way they played defense.

810
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 1: Especially No I mean they were.

811
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 4: Going up, they were going up to the NFC champ,

812
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 4: but I mean their defensive front they got mopped up.

813
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 4: When you looked at every time they had a nice run,

814
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 4: used check, had someone locked up Kittle, had someone locked

815
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 4: up their interior guys, they had Velcrow on their jerseys.

816
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:37,879
Speaker 4: And so again, I'm sure they're going to be hearing

817
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,719
Speaker 4: about pad level and and everything when it comes to

818
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 4: this game because this should be a get right game

819
00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 4: for them. But you know, Bill Callahan, that offensive line

820
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 4: coach for Tennessee, knows some things. So again, I'm not

821
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 4: sitting here saying that the Titans are going to go

822
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 4: up and down the field on them, but I think

823
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 4: there's an opportunity for Tennessee's offense to do some things correct.

824
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:03,760
Speaker 1: Interesting, Brian Callahan was not as optimistic as you talking

825
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 1: about his offense after the game.

826
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 5: I just we were playing so good on defense that

827
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 5: it's almost as if, I mean, if we just punted

828
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:12,440
Speaker 5: it on first and ten every time, we might have

829
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:12,959
Speaker 5: won the game.

830
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 3: The way of the way that you know, we gave

831
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 3: it away.

832
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 4: So he's not that's so awesome.

833
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 2: That's that's the man that's not happy with this quarter.

834
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:20,879
Speaker 3: Right.

835
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,319
Speaker 1: Here's the thing though, you mentioned Calahead. Actually I did

836
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 1: see the total difference. This was his dad, right, Yeah,

837
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: his dad innocent. I don't give both the lot credit. Uh,

838
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: the run game looks reborn. I mean, Tony Pollard had

839
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,719
Speaker 1: a great week last week. They were top ten in

840
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 1: the league in terms of efficiency on the ground. This

841
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: was not a consistent running team last year, even with

842
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry. So I saw them kind of look like

843
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 1: a like a Callahan type of running game. You have

844
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: Taji Spears as the backup Pollard, but Pollard really looked

845
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: like he had a little more juice this year. And

846
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: that's cohesive and it's against that bad rush defense. The

847
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 1: problem is, yeah, you need will Lews to help you

848
00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 1: do something. I think that was probably the worst game

849
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 1: of his career because not just the bad decisions, but

850
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: even when he hit a couple of plays, he just

851
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: was like really late. Maybe it was the t you know,

852
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: he was a Tennessee thing, and I'm remembering Jay Clor

853
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 1: even when Jay Cutler was good, like he would really

854
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 1: have to see it and for it to really be

855
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 1: open for him to just rip the ball.

856
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 2: And that was Will Levis last week.

857
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: He just did not feel like he was comfortable with

858
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: what he saw. DeAndre Hopkins only played seventeen snaps. Supposedly

859
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 1: he's practicing a little more. There was a miscommunication with

860
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley at the end of the game and he

861
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,919
Speaker 1: blew a block. Jaguars fans are like, oh, yeah, that's

862
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 1: a little familiar. So I always worry about a team

863
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 1: that doesn't have much of a passing game yet and

864
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: backing their chances to win.

865
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 3: I think it's a style thing and he's gonna have

866
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 3: to figure out how to marry his yolow deep shots

867
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 3: stock because I think over half of his career touchdowns

868
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 3: have come on bombs, and he got one. He got

869
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,239
Speaker 3: away with one on that late pass to Chigokonkwo where

870
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 3: Conkwo goes up and gets the ball away from the defender.

871
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 3: If not for that, Will Levis has an even worse

872
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 3: game than the way things turned out, and so it's

873
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 3: he was one of four on deep passing attempts against

874
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 3: the Bears. One thing that I did have an eye

875
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 3: on for Tennessee was Jeffrey Simmons had no pressures. Now,

876
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 3: there was that shot of four Chicago Bears on Jeffery Simmony,

877
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 3: but he hasn't had a game like that since twenty two.

878
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,399
Speaker 3: We want to see ninety eight gig going.

879
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 1: It may have found something though with Tvandre Sweat, who

880
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,760
Speaker 1: was a divisive guy because of some off the field

881
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: issues in the draft and people just didn't think he

882
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: was that great of.

883
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:27,720
Speaker 2: A player because there was weight issues.

884
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 1: He looked like a problem, like he looked really good

885
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 1: last week. And then you know Lagerius, Steed and CHADOBEI

886
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 1: huse who didn't practice. I was banging this drum all camp.

887
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 1: They go out there and they look good and their

888
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 1: defense played great. So yeah, this is a little it's

889
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 1: a worrisome game for the jet.

890
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 4: And to get to the Jeffrey Simmons saying, when you

891
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 4: watch that Niners game, their interior players were resetting the

892
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 4: line of scrimmage over and over. Even one time towards

893
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 4: the end of the game with the Jets tried to

894
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 4: run on a short down and distance, they had tight end.

895
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 3: A full back leading behind a tackle and they got stacked.

896
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 2: They couldn't run at all.

897
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 3: It could not run the ball.

898
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 4: So this is this is something even with this revamped

899
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 4: offensive line didn't look very physical or didn't look very intimidating.

900
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,719
Speaker 1: I'm looking at that three and a half for the

901
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 1: Titans for later the week.

902
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 3: He's got the Jets on fraud. Watch Jets on.

903
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,800
Speaker 4: Early early again a week one the great non truth teller.

904
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 4: But they're gonna hear a lot. It's gonna be a

905
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 4: tough film week for them.

906
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 2: Well, that's a big game. They can't go to no otherwise.

907
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 3: I haven't even played in met Life, the only team

908
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 3: of the division to lose. You guys know, things are

909
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 3: more important in the New York metropolitan so things may

910
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 3: be very, very different if the Jets don't. It's the

911
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 3: value is there? All right, guys, It's time for the

912
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,959
Speaker 3: Game of the Week presented by Draft Games. Let's get

913
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 3: into the rivalry game. It's it's always gonna be rough.

914
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 3: It's the Cincinnati Bengals at the Kansas City Chiefs, who

915
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 3: are a five point favorite at home. Greg, I have

916
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 3: to think that has a lot to do with the

917
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 3: fact that the Bengals who lose in Week one, Oh yeah, Patriot,

918
00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 3: the Patriots under Zach Taylor lost to your pay. Should

919
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 3: they be concerned, Greg, going up against a team that

920
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 3: is giving them so much trouble and a quarterback in

921
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 3: a wide receiver who've done the same. Yeah.

922
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 2: I mean, look, they called it Burrowhead for a little bit.

923
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,880
Speaker 2: They don't. They don't call it now. Maybe this is

924
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 2: what Joe Burrow needs.

925
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 1: I spoke about it with Jordan Rodriege and Colleen, like,

926
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: maybe he needs a game, to a big game to

927
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: make him feel alive, to get him out of these

928
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 1: early season dul drums.

929
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 2: He's always in.

930
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,279
Speaker 1: You know, they showed him kind of flexing the wrist

931
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 1: that that is worrisome. I don't know if that's affecting

932
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 1: his play. It's too hard to guess. But the reason

933
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 1: why I'm concerned is actually not the Bengals offense, which

934
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 1: I even if t Higgins doesn't come back, that's uncertain.

935
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: I just I have too much faith in Burrow that

936
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: they get it going. It's the matchup on the other

937
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 1: side of the ball. The guys are so open last

938
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 1: week for the Chiefs, they have extra rest coming into

939
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,200
Speaker 1: this game. They have all this Rashi Rice on these

940
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 1: free releases, and now he's running slants. They're expanding kind

941
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 1: of what he does. He's they're an empty They were

942
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 1: really dictating against a really good Ravens defense the matchups

943
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: that they wanted. And I was thinking, like, how how

944
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: is Patrick Mahomes the better when he's not as flashy,

945
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,360
Speaker 1: And to me, maybe it's because of just the pocket movement.

946
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 1: He's always been good, but now it's like you mentioned before,

947
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: how Richardson disregards the first guy. Mahomes is like that

948
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,760
Speaker 1: with every guy, except he's still throwing in the pocket.

949
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 1: And it's just incredible and he'll need that because he's

950
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,239
Speaker 1: going up against Hendrickson in this group.

951
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

952
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 4: I was at that opener and it was such an

953
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 4: exhibition of great coaching by Andy Reid. He saw that

954
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:25,839
Speaker 4: the Ravens are leaving open the middle of the field.

955
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 4: He was matching up linebackers on his wide receivers. I mean,

956
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 4: you saw Roe Kwan Smith chasing Rashid Rice. I mean,

957
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 4: they did some incredible things. I don't think lou Ana

958
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 4: Roumo is gonna put his linebackers asking them to do

959
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 4: as much, but again, they were really put in tremendous

960
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 4: conflict by Andy Reid.

961
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 3: I'm gonna flip it back though. I mean, I know Joe.

962
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 4: Burrow used to be Burrowhead, but this Chief defense is

963
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 4: a different monster in the last two years. And what

964
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 4: you saw that game down the opener, it came down

965
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 4: to Lamar Jackson just being superman against the defense that

966
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 4: had everything else blocked up until and Patrick.

967
00:41:59,040 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 3: We were talking about it.

968
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 4: The back half of the fourth quarter, when the Ravens

969
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,399
Speaker 4: went up tempo and they went no huddle, that's when

970
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 4: they started moving the ball on the Chief. That's when

971
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 4: they started being on schedule. Maybe we'll see some of

972
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:13,880
Speaker 4: that early on the game for Cincinnati, to try to

973
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,440
Speaker 4: prevent some of the substitutions for the Chiefs and to

974
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 4: allow them to get into a type of a rhythm,

975
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 4: because that's one thing that Chiefs defense in the opener

976
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 4: did not let the Ravens do.

977
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 3: Until a get in the back half of the fourth

978
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 3: quarter and Lamar gets time, He's able to get those

979
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 3: balls to Isaiah, likely because they're they're staying on the field,

980
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 3: they're in the hurry up. Lamar has been running all game. Yes,

981
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 3: Chris Jones was wiped out. Ye, he was absolutely zeroed out,

982
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 3: and that provided the assistance. The Bengals an't gonna have

983
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow running like that. I don't think it's smart

984
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 3: for Joe to be aggressive like that. He can be,

985
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 3: but it's it's really just is can they rely on

986
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 3: Joe and Jamar to make those types of plays? Was

987
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 3: that all Christian Gonzales was that a little bit of

988
00:42:56,640 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 3: hangover from off season stuff with Jamar Chase have to

989
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 3: be explosive against Case and they just could do nothing right.

990
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,919
Speaker 3: And again, if Tanner Hudson doesn't get the ball knocked

991
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,879
Speaker 3: away from Kyle Duggart, right, if there's no fumble, right,

992
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,600
Speaker 3: we're looking we might be looking at this game a

993
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 3: whole lot differently.

994
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,760
Speaker 2: But man, it's a big spot. It's a big spot.

995
00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:19,240
Speaker 3: Five is a big number.

996
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 2: Two though it was six.

997
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,959
Speaker 1: So so the public agrees with you and it brought

998
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,040
Speaker 1: it back. It's a big game, though you don't. I

999
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: know they've done it before and they've rallied, but it's

1000
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,840
Speaker 1: just tough start in your season. Oh win two, So

1001
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 1: it's a it's a big game for them. It's also

1002
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 1: a big game for Tony Romo. I mentioned how I

1003
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:39,399
Speaker 1: thought he was kind of ducking the competition last week

1004
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,879
Speaker 1: with Tom Brady was on a four h five game,

1005
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 1: and so this is back at his big spot. Patrick

1006
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,919
Speaker 1: with that, with the world watching the four to twenty five,

1007
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 1: this is the big game. This is his game. Really,

1008
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,840
Speaker 1: He's probably called it many times before. He needs to

1009
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 1: have a big gear.

1010
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 3: And I think the winner here is the people, right, Yes,

1011
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,840
Speaker 3: because Tony came out, he was he was explosive, he

1012
00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 3: was prepared, he was excited, and maybe maybe we locked

1013
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 3: a little bit of that. And so now that Tom

1014
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 3: is dominating the discussion, whether you know again Tom's calling

1015
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,240
Speaker 3: his first game like Jill a little bit, and people

1016
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,359
Speaker 3: were thinking Scott Hansen was being critical of Tom. Like no,

1017
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 3: Scott was just excited, like I was to see a

1018
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 3: seventy one yard field goal, and he wanted Tom to

1019
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 3: be as excited as everyone else was. They wasn't saying

1020
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 3: Tom's bad. I think Tom being in the broadcast booth

1021
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 3: in general. I don't know if if Tony's ducking folks, okay,

1022
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 3: but I do know that that it helps with the

1023
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 3: idea that like, hey, you know people people want to

1024
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:37,759
Speaker 3: hear Tom Brady and Tony rom was going to come

1025
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 3: out and say this is this is why I'm here.

1026
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 3: I like this. He's gonna up his game.

1027
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,399
Speaker 1: I mean he he's heard, he's heard the criticism out there.

1028
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 1: Hopefully the Bengals run defense has too. That's been the

1029
00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,960
Speaker 1: big concerned in Cincinnati this week that they were a

1030
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,320
Speaker 1: bad run events last year. Then you lose DJ Reader

1031
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 1: and they got steam rolled last week. So they will

1032
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,920
Speaker 1: be challenged by the Chiefs and their big front in

1033
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,680
Speaker 1: Isaiah Pacheco. Let's take a quick break. Yeah, that's the

1034
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 1: only way we can do it. After that kind of game,

1043

1045
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 5: return to simpler times with good kids in this mad

1046
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 5: city when the forward passed was backwards, thinking to.

1047
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:57,440
Speaker 2: Leave your swimming pools on Sundays and drank with us. Oh,

1048
00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 2: and we have some decent players too. Pay four by

1049
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 2: the who's got the hot shot coach?

1050
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 1: Now, how rams actual.

1051
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,239
Speaker 4: Chargers We're not like aggressive, We're like we're not like

1052
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 4: Greg Patrick.

1053
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 3: No, that's the goal is to try to get like Greg.

1054
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 3: But sometimes you know.

1055
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,280
Speaker 2: Chargers, you know, coming after him, they're China.

1056
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 1: It's it's like when the Clippers put up those billboards

1057
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,879
Speaker 1: you know about the Lakers a few years back. It's

1058
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,359
Speaker 1: the Chargers taken over, and you know they have good

1059
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 1: players too.

1060
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 3: And here's the thing. The Chargers are six and a

1061
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 3: half point favorites two thousand and one hundred and twenty

1062
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:38,319
Speaker 3: miles away from Los Angeles International Airport on the road

1063
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 3: to take on Bryce Young, Dave Canalis and the Carolina Panthers,

1064
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:45,800
Speaker 3: who were run all over, all over by Alba Kamara

1065
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:48,879
Speaker 3: and the Saints in Week one. Incomes JK. Dobbins, greg

1066
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,800
Speaker 3: who had thirteen yards of carry, which what is crazy?

1067
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 3: What are they gonna do against the Panthers.

1068
00:46:56,640 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 1: They'll probably do whatever they want because the Panthers had

1069
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,400
Speaker 1: one of the worst defensive lines in the league when

1070
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 1: they had an All Pro and Derek Brown, and now

1071
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,600
Speaker 1: they don't have an All Pro. And look, there was

1072
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:11,080
Speaker 1: a lot of interior pressure actually on Justin Herbert last week.

1073
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,319
Speaker 1: The Raiders were getting after him early. But that's the

1074
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 1: thing about Harby, you heard it. He not a big

1075
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: fan of the Ford pat They stayed consistent with the run.

1076
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,440
Speaker 1: It really wasn't working all day. You just wait and

1077
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: wait and waiting. It finally popped and they might not

1078
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 1: have to wait as long this week for it to POPSI.

1079
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 4: There's nothing like seeing a team as a six and

1080
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,959
Speaker 4: a half point favorite with an over underline of thirty.

1081
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 3: Eight and a half.

1082
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 4: Oh, that's I mean, that means you're not thinking the

1083
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:38,359
Speaker 4: other team's gonna score very much, that being the Carolina Panthers. Look,

1084
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:42,880
Speaker 4: I spoke to somebody in league circles. I'll put it

1085
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 4: to you that way. Who saw the game with the

1086
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:51,840
Speaker 4: Panthers and the Saints. It said, Carolina Panthers are just

1087
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,399
Speaker 4: not a good football team. Just look again, it's week one.

1088
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 4: They could have been totally discombobulated, but they did not

1089
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 4: come down ready to play in week one, playing against

1090
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 4: a team that is not going to beat itself. I mean,

1091
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 4: the Chargers are going to be fundamentally sound. You know

1092
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,279
Speaker 4: what they are, you know their identity. They are going

1093
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 4: to pound the ball, they're going to run the ball,

1094
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 4: and they're going to choke you out defensively.

1095
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 3: Maybe nothing spectacular, but if Bryce.

1096
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,399
Speaker 4: Young and the way that the Carolina Panthers came out

1097
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 4: and tried to do whatever they didn't functionally do against

1098
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,280
Speaker 4: the Saints, this is gonna get bad. Like they're at home,

1099
00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:27,840
Speaker 4: they have got to find some semblance of a running

1100
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 4: game to take the pressure off of Bryce.

1101
00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:32,439
Speaker 3: But he just looked bad. I mean, look at that throw.

1102
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:32,959
Speaker 3: Right there.

1103
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 4: And you know, another person said to me, some of

1104
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 4: the things that concerned you about why he shouldn't have

1105
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:42,360
Speaker 4: been the top pick have surfaced a little too often,

1106
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,839
Speaker 4: and again we might not be giving him a fair shake. Right,

1107
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 4: we gave Trevor Lawrence a pass on year one. But

1108
00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 4: they're like, these things are flaring up, some of the

1109
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 4: things they're saying so against again, a highly physical, disciplined

1110
00:48:56,239 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 4: Chargers team, they better really reverse as we reverse on

1111
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,960
Speaker 4: what happened week one if they want to cover that

1112
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:05,840
Speaker 4: six and a half.

1113
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, Bryce, of course, being the quarterback and the number

1114
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 3: one overall pick, they gave up so much to get

1115
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 3: oh first places a whole lot. But we need some

1116
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,839
Speaker 3: other Panthers to be good too, Like Ikey Aquanu got

1117
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 3: absolutely worn out by Chase Young had a career game.

1118
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 3: It was one of the worst games Aquanu gave, giving

1119
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 3: up six pressures and so like I think that there's hope,

1120
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 3: there's some hope for Carolina. You could take solace in this,

1121
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 3: right because Rashisha he catches that fifty five plus yard

1122
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:38,239
Speaker 3: bomb on the on one of the first possessions of

1123
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 3: the game for New Orleans. Justin Herbert had his fewest

1124
00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 3: completions of over ten air yards second fewested his entire career.

1125
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,319
Speaker 2: So the harball look like they're playing in a phone

1126
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:49,320
Speaker 2: with two Yeah.

1127
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 3: The hardball. Chargers aren't gonna throw up and down Bank

1128
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:56,279
Speaker 3: of America Stadium with big shots. So they don't have

1129
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,720
Speaker 3: they don't have anyone to do it. Maybe like they're

1130
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,560
Speaker 3: at least style wise, they can take a few body

1131
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,000
Speaker 3: shots and maybe have a chance to shock the world.

1132
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 3: Maybe shock me at least because it's it's bad.

1133
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: Right now, and wow, shock the world against the Chargers too, like,

1134
00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,080
Speaker 1: and I love I love the idea that the Chargers

1135
00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:12,840
Speaker 1: could get to to and oh and get get at

1136
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: a little bit of heat coming.

1137
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,840
Speaker 2: Into I think they have the chiefs coming into the building.

1138
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 3: It'll be great. That's gonna be. That's gonna be damn

1139
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:19,279
Speaker 3: next week.

1140
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:22,920
Speaker 1: But one thing if you're a Panthers fan that has

1141
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,800
Speaker 1: to concern you is there was so much unblocked pressure

1142
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,080
Speaker 1: last week against Bryce Young. And so I don't know

1143
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 1: if that's the coaching which we saw with Philadelphia last year.

1144
00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 1: I think it was more about the coaching than it

1145
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 1: necessarily was the quarterback.

1146
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:35,880
Speaker 2: And Bryce Young has some freedom.

1147
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 1: Dave Canaw has talked about this week to change things

1148
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:40,880
Speaker 1: up at the line of scrimmage if we see in something.

1149
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:44,240
Speaker 1: But once that's on tape, you can believe that Jesse

1150
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 1: Minterer that coordinated for the Chargers and Jim Harbaugh they

1151
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:49,520
Speaker 1: saw that too, and so they're gonna have to have

1152
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 1: some answers. And I just don't know if this offense

1153
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:54,799
Speaker 1: is makes sense. We got to see it. Does Bryce

1154
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:58,760
Speaker 1: Young make sense in this style of kind of McVeigh,

1155
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:01,760
Speaker 1: you know, adjacent type of offense.

1156
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:03,320
Speaker 3: Well, look, I mean shorter quarterbacks.

1157
00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:06,960
Speaker 4: There are other quarterbacks here, Russell Wilson, Gino Smith, Baker

1158
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 4: Mayfield made sense in this game that Dave Kannalis coach.

1159
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,359
Speaker 3: But again it goes down to the protection. You talk

1160
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 3: about ikey Iguanage.

1161
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:14,320
Speaker 2: But those guys were all throwing it deep.

1162
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,400
Speaker 1: When I think of like, what was their strength, and

1163
00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:20,120
Speaker 1: maybe Bryce Young can do that, but I think of

1164
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,359
Speaker 1: him more as maybe get the ball out quickly and

1165
00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 1: point guard type.

1166
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:25,719
Speaker 4: Well he's gonna have to because Patrick talked about Ikey

1167
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 4: Iguana Getty steam rolled last week. The Chargers are coming

1168
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,239
Speaker 4: to town with Khalil mac Joey Boson, tu La Tuiya

1169
00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 4: Polo two.

1170
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:33,000
Speaker 3: Those dudes get after it now.

1171
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,440
Speaker 4: So it's gonna have to be a quick passing game

1172
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:39,080
Speaker 4: unless it's just a twenty step drop for Bryce shung to.

1173
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 3: You have to buy time and launch it. Yeah, and

1174
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 3: there's there's plenty that the Panthers have put on film

1175
00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 3: for people to see. In that film everybody has access to.

1176
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 3: We know what Harball and company can do when they

1177
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 3: have film that only they have access to. Oh, it's

1178
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:53,920
Speaker 3: gonna be something. It's the Carolina Panthers. From there, we

1179
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 3: go to another revenge game after being discarded by the

1180
00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 3: San Francisco for I'm just kidding. Sam Darnold coming back

1181
00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:04,040
Speaker 3: to take on the place that kind of reborn. It

1182
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 3: gave him another opportunity. He's back and starting now after

1183
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 3: the injury. The Minnesota Vikings are a six point underdog

1184
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 3: at home. Wow, that's a huge number. Man Rock and

1185
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:23,440
Speaker 3: Trenton Company. After Greg they blitzed the Giants in MetLife

1186
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 3: on a day where they're celebrating the franchise and everybody

1187
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 3: left two.

1188
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know who else they blitzed last year on

1189
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,959
Speaker 1: Monday Night football kind of Brian Flores his big coming

1190
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 1: out party as a defensive quarter the San Francisco.

1191
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:37,000
Speaker 2: Forty nine ers.

1192
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:39,759
Speaker 1: Brock Perty has never looked worse than he did in

1193
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:42,760
Speaker 1: that game. Now, knowing Flora's not personally, but just knowing

1194
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,000
Speaker 1: his get down, my guess is he'll flip the script

1195
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,040
Speaker 1: this year and he doesn't need to blitz quite as

1196
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:52,600
Speaker 1: much because they have better pass rushers overall, or they

1197
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:55,239
Speaker 1: feel like they're they're deeper. Obviously you lose Denel Hunter,

1198
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,560
Speaker 1: you don't get better, but they have more players there.

1199
00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 1: Dallas Turner had a sack last week. Van ginkels out

1200
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 1: there doing all sorts of things. Brian Flores loves him,

1201
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 1: and you have Jonathan Grenard. You got the safeties, so

1202
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 1: he won't do the same plan as last time. But

1203
00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:11,560
Speaker 1: you better believe that Kyle Shanahan is a little more

1204
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,399
Speaker 1: prepared for what's coming at him. It sounds like, though,

1205
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,200
Speaker 1: according to our guy Ian rapport, that CMC will probably

1206
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 1: not play I think so in this game. Jordan Addison

1207
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 1: also ify he missed practiced on Wednesday.

1208
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, remember Ryan Flores came out blitzing like that. That's

1209
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,439
Speaker 4: the game when the Niners didn't have Debo or Trent

1210
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 4: Williams either. Both of those guys will be playing huge

1211
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:33,360
Speaker 4: roles in this game. But that's still that's a huge number.

1212
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 4: I mean, San Francisco's coming off a game that they

1213
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:42,160
Speaker 4: were really pumped up for. Jordan Mason running back is Mason.

1214
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 2: It's Jordan Mason. Baby.

1215
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,360
Speaker 3: I'm like, I just want to make sure Georgia, Texa

1216
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:46,759
Speaker 3: like that.

1217
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 2: He's not in my starting fantasy lineup this week.

1218
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:49,480
Speaker 3: Let's go.

1219
00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:54,319
Speaker 1: I drafted Jordan Mason. I saw anybody, No, I just

1220
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 1: took him. I just took him. Wow.

1221
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 4: But I mean, look at the blocking we're watching video

1222
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 4: right here. There is nothing but red just annihilating guys

1223
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:03,480
Speaker 4: and white jerts. It's not going to be like that

1224
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:05,440
Speaker 4: against the Vikings. I mean, the Vikings and Flora will

1225
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,560
Speaker 4: scheme things up. I don't think Sam Frantis who is

1226
00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:09,160
Speaker 4: gonna be able to run the ball a little bit more.

1227
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 4: The Vikings are a tougher team. It's not that they

1228
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 4: just mopped up on the Giants. They are going to

1229
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 4: be a better team than people expect. I think this

1230
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,759
Speaker 4: is gonna be a really challenging game. Remember the forty

1231
00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:21,359
Speaker 4: nine went up there and they coughed the ball up

1232
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:22,919
Speaker 4: a couple times last year.

1233
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:24,320
Speaker 3: That's gonna be a point of emphasis.

1234
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:26,600
Speaker 4: But I think this is gonna be a highly contested

1235
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 4: game and that's why I'm looking at that number at six.

1236
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:29,479
Speaker 2: And a half.

1237
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:30,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would like six.

1238
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:34,160
Speaker 4: Like wow, that's a big number, you know, for the

1239
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:35,960
Speaker 4: game being in Minnesota as well.

1240
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:38,560
Speaker 2: For a team that's really talented. I think that gets lost.

1241
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:40,040
Speaker 1: So I just mentioned a lot of like kind of

1242
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:43,560
Speaker 1: the periphery defensive players. But you have maybe the best

1243
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 1: tackle combination in football, well one Cristin Darisaw and O'Neill.

1244
00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:50,279
Speaker 2: And maybe they canmit again.

1245
00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:53,000
Speaker 1: I mean, there's no great matchup against Nick Bosa, but

1246
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:56,080
Speaker 1: maybe they can do a good job. They're like they

1247
00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,000
Speaker 1: have legit players. Aaron Jones last week, I mean I

1248
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:00,919
Speaker 1: would say it's the Fountain youth. But he looked great

1249
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 1: at the end of last year too. He looked like

1250
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones.

1251
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, six point seven yards per carry against the Giants.

1252
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:09,360
Speaker 3: This this is the Giants defense, uh with Fred and

1253
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 3: company who gave Breese and the Jets all kinds. But again,

1254
00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 3: as the Jets, it's week one. Perhaps the Jets are

1255
00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:20,120
Speaker 3: on fraud watch it and we don't necessarily know, but

1256
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:24,879
Speaker 3: they they look Darrisaul was spectacular. Yes, great to see

1257
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:28,120
Speaker 3: Aaron Jones still doing it and his kind of I

1258
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:30,480
Speaker 3: can't wait for for his like actual revenge game. I

1259
00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:33,280
Speaker 3: hope Jordan Love is back for that one. But it's

1260
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 3: six points. I understand it. It makes sense to me.

1261
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:42,360
Speaker 3: I may have them them covering that just really based

1262
00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:47,040
Speaker 3: on everybody being back. A gets Yeah, he'll be better. Yeah,

1263
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:50,520
Speaker 3: I think he catches that touchdown nine times out of ten,

1264
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:53,200
Speaker 3: and it's it's tough. It's a tough spot for the Vikings.

1265
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,080
Speaker 3: But show me Sam, show me.

1266
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 2: That for test.

1267
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:57,960
Speaker 1: You know, he was very good last week when they

1268
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:00,640
Speaker 1: did blitz Sam Darnold. I have a theory that he's

1269
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 1: almost better when he doesn't have time to think. It's

1270
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 1: like you blitz him and he's like, I just got

1271
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 1: to get.

1272
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:05,920
Speaker 2: Rid of the ball.

1273
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:08,879
Speaker 1: When he holds the ball in his career included even

1274
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:11,280
Speaker 1: last week, the numbers aren't as good then just things

1275
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 1: get muddy and confused.

1276
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 2: But so maybe don't blitz him.

1277
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:17,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean paralysis by over analysis Joey Harrington syndrome.

1278
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 4: You got too much time, you're gonna overthink about all

1279
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:23,120
Speaker 4: the possibilities. Get it out, especially to a guy we

1280
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,880
Speaker 4: haven't mentioned justin Jefferson, You'll be able to do some

1281
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 4: things against this defense, which is a.

1282
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 3: Weird juxtaposition with him and Brock. They were on the

1283
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,880
Speaker 3: same team, because when Brock gets on the outside and

1284
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,880
Speaker 3: things get a little squirrely, he knows exactly what to do,

1285
00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:41,200
Speaker 3: and he's so calm, so operating about it. He'll throw

1286
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 3: a spin move in there. It's fun, it's always, but

1287
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:47,800
Speaker 3: almost as fun as a chance to see the number

1288
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:52,920
Speaker 3: one overall pick Caleb Williams on Sunday Night Football, a

1289
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 3: six point dog to the Houston Texans, who were spectacular

1290
00:56:57,120 --> 00:57:00,680
Speaker 3: with their new additions. Joe Mixon goes off, as well

1291
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:05,560
Speaker 3: as two touchdowns for Stefan Diggs. Greg Is there a

1292
00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 3: world in which Caleb and the Bears defense can overcome

1293
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 3: this monster of the Houston Texas.

1294
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:12,920
Speaker 2: Absolutely, there's a world. I'm not living in that world.

1295
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:16,440
Speaker 1: Like you know, it's a six point spread that feels

1296
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,520
Speaker 1: about right to me, Like I feel comfortable the Texans

1297
00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 1: win this game. I would, I would, I would feel

1298
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:25,000
Speaker 1: good about that. And yet this is a perfect Sunday

1299
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 1: Night game. I gotta give a shout out to is

1300
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 1: it Mike North in the scheduling department. Yes, they came

1301
00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 1: out with the primetime games in Week one and they

1302
00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:34,280
Speaker 1: say like fire show. It's like a concert that starts

1303
00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:37,720
Speaker 1: with all your biggest songs. Okay, now we're sliding into

1304
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 1: Week two. I'm not going to say they're like deep

1305
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:43,760
Speaker 1: album cuts, but very nice. Thursday night matchup with Miami

1306
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:45,919
Speaker 1: Buffalo and in this to be is a perfect Week

1307
00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:48,640
Speaker 1: two Sunday night. Let's get Caleb Williams in early. He

1308
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:51,640
Speaker 1: has some answers, some questions to answer.

1309
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:52,600
Speaker 2: You have CJ.

1310
00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:56,400
Speaker 1: Stroud, our next big star, the number two pick last year.

1311
00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 2: It's absolutely perfect.

1312
00:57:57,600 --> 00:57:59,640
Speaker 1: And yet I think the biggest single mismatch in this

1313
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 1: entire game, at least if Week one wasn't a liar,

1314
00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,360
Speaker 1: is the Houston Texans running game. They went from worse

1315
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 1: to first, worse than the league DVOA last year to

1316
00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:12,120
Speaker 1: best in the league in Week one, and that is

1317
00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:15,320
Speaker 1: the way you always want to attack a Matt Eberflu's defense.

1318
00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:17,200
Speaker 2: They are built to stop the pass.

1319
00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 1: They are fantastic stopping the past, and their pass rush

1320
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 1: was good last week too, but they weren't as good

1321
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 1: against the run. They're traditionally not as good against the run.

1322
00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:28,440
Speaker 1: So is this Joe Mixon rushing attack a lot of

1323
00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:31,240
Speaker 1: times into light boxes because you have all these great receivers.

1324
00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:32,240
Speaker 2: Is that for real?

1325
00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:35,240
Speaker 1: Because if it is, this is gonna be a top

1326
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:36,680
Speaker 1: three offense in the NFL.

1327
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:38,840
Speaker 4: So Houston goes out and gets Joe Mixon because he's

1328
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,960
Speaker 4: familiar with the zone runs game. Damian Pierce was not.

1329
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:45,000
Speaker 4: That was something that he's gotten better, right. But mixing

1330
00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:47,440
Speaker 4: comes in and you see it operate functionally and what

1331
00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:49,840
Speaker 4: Bobby Schlook likes to do offensively.

1332
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:52,000
Speaker 3: That's gonna set up so much more.

1333
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 4: And we know the Texas, They've got receivers for days,

1334
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 4: they've got tight ends for days, and they've got a

1335
00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:58,280
Speaker 4: strong offensive line.

1336
00:58:58,600 --> 00:58:59,680
Speaker 3: I'm just looking a let's go.

1337
00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 4: Back to Caleb Williams, who, by the way, still is

1338
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:02,640
Speaker 4: not on Quarterback Island.

1339
00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 1: Greg, Oh, that was a good call, you guys, at

1340
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:08,240
Speaker 1: least after one week relaxed. I was trying to put

1341
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:10,919
Speaker 1: him onto the island. If you missed it, we will

1342
00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:14,080
Speaker 1: be bringing back quarterback Island. It is a special place

1343
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:20,040
Speaker 1: where only ten quarterbacks twelve quarterbacks can live. And I thought, Caleb,

1344
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:22,040
Speaker 1: you should just start him there since he's going to

1345
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:24,360
Speaker 1: be there his whole career, but maybe I was wrong

1346
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,200
Speaker 1: about that. Well, we'll revisit in a couple of weeks

1347
00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: on a Tuesday.

1348
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:30,040
Speaker 4: But his comp his comp was CJ Stroud, I mean,

1349
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:31,760
Speaker 4: and the Bears, Brian Pace.

1350
00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:35,400
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Ryan Poles, not Ryan Pace. Ryan Poles general manager.

1351
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,080
Speaker 4: You know at the Hall of Fame game, he told

1352
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:40,680
Speaker 4: me and Brian Baldinger, we're not running from that comp

1353
00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,080
Speaker 4: We think the fact that c J. Stroud came out

1354
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:44,720
Speaker 4: and lit it up like that as a rookie is

1355
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:47,760
Speaker 4: something that Caleb Williams can do. They've put him in

1356
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:49,600
Speaker 4: position to do it now. He said, Caleb has to

1357
00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 4: run his own race, but they think he's talented enough

1358
00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 4: to do the great things that c J. Stroud did.

1359
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 4: Don't think a competitor like c J Stroud has not

1360
00:59:58,080 --> 01:00:01,600
Speaker 4: heard that. Also, yeah'll spice.

1361
01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:01,959
Speaker 2: It off and CJ.

1362
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:07,640
Speaker 1: To be fair, his first couple games were not crazy. Now,

1363
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:09,440
Speaker 1: he didn't have like a ninety three yard game, but

1364
01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:11,240
Speaker 1: he did have one game where he really struggled. That

1365
01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:14,000
Speaker 1: was about it. But even but they were more conservative early.

1366
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,520
Speaker 1: I don't think it was about being conservative with the

1367
01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:19,000
Speaker 1: Bears last week, they just you know, he missed it.

1368
01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:19,800
Speaker 2: It was a combination.

1369
01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:21,600
Speaker 1: I think he made more good plays in that game

1370
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 1: than I expected when I went to rewatch it. But

1371
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:27,080
Speaker 1: he struggled when he was under pressure, and he didn't

1372
01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:29,120
Speaker 1: create kind of like he expected. There was like one

1373
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:31,000
Speaker 1: or two plays, but when he tried to go into

1374
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:32,680
Speaker 1: create mode, it didn't work.

1375
01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we saw the preseason magic. Of course, the

1376
01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,560
Speaker 3: spin throw to Romo Dunze. We saw that a million

1377
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 3: times out of the preseason, but like it wasn't just

1378
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 3: when there was no pressure. When the time to throw

1379
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:45,160
Speaker 3: was over two and a half seconds, he was three

1380
01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:48,320
Speaker 3: or thirteen mm through the air. And and some of

1381
01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:51,400
Speaker 3: those there's the keenan Allen drop, right, there's the one

1382
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,000
Speaker 3: he missed, Keen Nollen. You can pick and choose there.

1383
01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:57,680
Speaker 3: But where Caleb succeeded was he didn't on the other

1384
01:00:57,720 --> 01:01:01,040
Speaker 3: side like Will Levis's of whirling urbans throwing the ball

1385
01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,160
Speaker 3: to the other team and fumbles and all this other stuff.

1386
01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 3: But Caleb had that nice third and ten run that

1387
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:10,400
Speaker 3: set up a Cairo Santos field goal, the cut into

1388
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:13,480
Speaker 3: that lead to give that defensive play a chance to

1389
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 3: tie the ball game up, and ultimately, like no turnovers,

1390
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:23,000
Speaker 3: he took the ball, No, he's not. You know CJ.

1391
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:26,200
Speaker 3: Stroud or in that early game last year against Anthony

1392
01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:28,520
Speaker 3: Richardson where he throws for three hundred and eighty something

1393
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:30,680
Speaker 3: yards and it's like world beating.

1394
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 1: Maybe this week Sunday Night football. He's a big time player.

1395
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,480
Speaker 3: Got a chance? Why not? Why not?

1396
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:37,240
Speaker 2: I love that would be fun. I own that said.

1397
01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:42,240
Speaker 1: I almost took this as my Survivor pick Texans over

1398
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:43,240
Speaker 1: the Bears.

1399
01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:47,280
Speaker 3: Thought about it. So, speaking of the state of Texas,

1400
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys, we're going to be at home in

1401
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:53,480
Speaker 3: our next game where they play host to Derek Carr

1402
01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 3: and the New Orleans Saints, who took the foot off

1403
01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 3: the gas and still scored forty seven points. Again the

1404
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:03,640
Speaker 3: Carolina Panthers. Dallas is a six and a half. That's

1405
01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:07,960
Speaker 3: a point favorite over this New Orleans Saints team. Greg

1406
01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:12,920
Speaker 3: where Alva Kamara looked great. Talis Uaga was incredible against

1407
01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,800
Speaker 3: the Carolina Panthers. It's the Panthers caveat we get to

1408
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:19,120
Speaker 3: find out what's real and what's not here because the

1409
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:22,760
Speaker 3: Cowboys are kind of this litmus test type team where

1410
01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:23,840
Speaker 3: you could tell if you're really.

1411
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:24,560
Speaker 2: Over or not right.

1412
01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:27,480
Speaker 1: I think it's the ultimate sort of Week two reality

1413
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:30,320
Speaker 1: check or test that you actually might have it for

1414
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:34,320
Speaker 1: the Saints offensive line, specifically more than any other group

1415
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 1: in this game. The Saints offensive line coming into the

1416
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 1: season looked like such a problem it might hold the

1417
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:42,880
Speaker 1: whole team back.

1418
01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:44,320
Speaker 2: They had a great Week one.

1419
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:46,080
Speaker 1: Now they were playing the Panthers who have no one

1420
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:49,760
Speaker 1: really upfront, but Trevor Penny the best game of his career, like,

1421
01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 1: looked like an NFL player. Now you got to go

1422
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:55,520
Speaker 1: up against DeMarcus Lawrence and Michael Parsons who's lining up

1423
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:58,880
Speaker 1: in different spots when he's rushing, and they're a little

1424
01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:01,680
Speaker 1: deeper than we expect. Did because this kid de marve

1425
01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:05,320
Speaker 1: On Overshan who linebacker, looked good. Kneeland's out there, he's

1426
01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 1: a rookie setting the edge. Like there's just a lot

1427
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,360
Speaker 1: to deal with. So we'll see if the Saints offensive

1428
01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:13,040
Speaker 1: line can hold up. And it's the scheme with Clint Kubiak,

1429
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 1: because if they can, they had a good, cohesive looking

1430
01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:17,520
Speaker 1: running game. I just don't know if it was just

1431
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:20,560
Speaker 1: Week one. I will say that I know last year

1432
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,120
Speaker 1: they didn't look like that against the worst defense in

1433
01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:26,160
Speaker 1: the league ever. The Saints offense so I already feel

1434
01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:29,080
Speaker 1: much better, especially about the running game in Alvin Kamara.

1435
01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:29,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1436
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:32,440
Speaker 4: I mean, look, the Cowboys came out looked. They look

1437
01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 4: like a dominant defense. I mean Cleveland they just could

1438
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:37,080
Speaker 4: not figure it. I think part of that's on Cleveland.

1439
01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:39,160
Speaker 4: So this is why I'm saying this is a test,

1440
01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:42,480
Speaker 4: like this is a big number, because maybe the Saints

1441
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:44,880
Speaker 4: are a little bit better than what we thought. Are

1442
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:48,240
Speaker 4: the Cowboys as good? Especially on defense? I think again

1443
01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:52,560
Speaker 4: the Saints calling card though is their defense.

1444
01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:54,640
Speaker 3: But is Dak gonna be able to move with the ball?

1445
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:56,360
Speaker 3: And now we know the Browns had a great defense.

1446
01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:57,920
Speaker 4: But the Saints have been like a top eight defense

1447
01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:00,720
Speaker 4: for five or six years in a row. And of

1448
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:04,080
Speaker 4: course they came on they dominated Carolina Panthers. I think

1449
01:04:04,080 --> 01:04:07,000
Speaker 4: they're gonna have a little something. They tend to play

1450
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,720
Speaker 4: the Cowboys tough. I think they're gonna be able to

1451
01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:11,760
Speaker 4: generate some stuff like Dallas is gonna be able to

1452
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,160
Speaker 4: run the ball on the Saints like they did against Cleveland.

1453
01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:15,440
Speaker 3: They were They were really.

1454
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:17,959
Speaker 2: Good offensively until the second half.

1455
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:19,800
Speaker 1: For what it's worth. I know they had a big lead,

1456
01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:21,720
Speaker 1: but they didn't do it. They had like fifty yards

1457
01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:22,160
Speaker 1: in the second.

1458
01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:23,760
Speaker 4: It was all CD Lamb and that was the thing.

1459
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:25,800
Speaker 4: It was a pitching gat. Dak and Ceedee Lamb look great,

1460
01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:29,880
Speaker 4: But otherwise you just were kind of That's what I'm saying.

1461
01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:32,400
Speaker 4: You're kind of wondering with all of the stuff, with

1462
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:35,240
Speaker 4: that the Saints have in their secondary and tomorrow Davis

1463
01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:36,680
Speaker 4: being one of the best players in the NFL and

1464
01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:39,000
Speaker 4: some of the stuff they do up front, I think

1465
01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,120
Speaker 4: this is gonna be a very tough game for Dallas's defense.

1466
01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:43,960
Speaker 1: Just one injury note about that secondary, and these were

1467
01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:46,560
Speaker 1: kind of surprises. Tyron Matthew miss practice Wednesday with a

1468
01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:51,720
Speaker 1: hamstring injury, and Marshawn Lattimore also missed practice, So if

1469
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:53,040
Speaker 1: they were both out that that would hurt.

1470
01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:55,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, kol A McKinstry, the rookie came in and replaced

1471
01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:59,320
Speaker 3: Marshawn Latimore and the third orps and the Saints. You know,

1472
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:01,600
Speaker 3: that's kind of because there was the off season discussion

1473
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:03,840
Speaker 3: about whether or not Marshan gets traded, right, I think

1474
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:05,680
Speaker 3: they make the right decision and keep him because there's

1475
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:08,320
Speaker 3: more value if he stays there and you get a

1476
01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:11,720
Speaker 3: very good football player. But the plans in place for

1477
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:14,920
Speaker 3: Marshawn if he's if he's not available, my overall question

1478
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:17,120
Speaker 3: is gonna be the same question with the Dallas Cowboys

1479
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,280
Speaker 3: week in and week out. I understand it was the

1480
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:23,000
Speaker 3: Browns in week one, but the run game is is

1481
01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 3: an afterthought at this point. It seems like a tacit

1482
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:29,280
Speaker 3: admission that, hey, like, we're not necessarily prioritizing ball. We'll

1483
01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:31,760
Speaker 3: get Rico a few carries, a z Heke comes in,

1484
01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:34,160
Speaker 3: he gets some give up carries. Maybe Dak will check

1485
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:37,200
Speaker 3: to it. But it's so much to put on Dak

1486
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,440
Speaker 3: and CD. But if you're gonna put a lot on

1487
01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:42,400
Speaker 3: two players in the NFL at this point in their careers,

1488
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:43,800
Speaker 3: it's Dak and those two.

1489
01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:45,480
Speaker 1: That's why I want That's why I want the same

1490
01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:48,120
Speaker 1: secondary to be healthy for this game, because it that's

1491
01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:49,960
Speaker 1: a tough matchup. I think this could be a bit

1492
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:52,800
Speaker 1: of a rock fight where yeah, six and a half

1493
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:55,400
Speaker 1: points feels like a lot, just because the final score

1494
01:05:55,440 --> 01:05:58,800
Speaker 1: could be something like seventeen to thirteen in either direction.

1495
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:01,040
Speaker 3: And if Jake Ferguson which his health status to the

1496
01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:01,520
Speaker 3: tight end.

1497
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:03,560
Speaker 2: They seem hopeful that he'll play. I think he was

1498
01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:04,080
Speaker 2: a big.

1499
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:07,040
Speaker 3: Part of what they do. Yeah, okay, more more more,

1500
01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:11,240
Speaker 3: Luke Schoonmaker, which is you know.

1501
01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:11,720
Speaker 2: I'm one.

1502
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 1: I'm at least one week away, probably two before issuing

1503
01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:19,840
Speaker 1: an apology for the incredible amount of Eric Kendricks slander.

1504
01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:23,880
Speaker 1: I put it on this podcast, however, because he had

1505
01:06:23,920 --> 01:06:26,560
Speaker 1: a great week one. Their linebackers look good. Maybe Mike

1506
01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:27,640
Speaker 1: Zimmer knows what he's doing.

1507
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:28,960
Speaker 3: Zim's gotta figure it out.

1508
01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 1: And if we'll see, I'm giving in another week before

1509
01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:32,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna issue an apologies.

1510
01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:34,560
Speaker 3: And if Eric Kendricks has lost steps to marve On

1511
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:37,600
Speaker 3: Overshawan makes up for that, Okay, and his ability because

1512
01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 3: covering that space to get Deshaun Watson last week was

1513
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:43,360
Speaker 3: one of the scariest, insane examples of speed from a linebacker.

1514
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:45,320
Speaker 4: The rosie just wants to take a backhanded slab of

1515
01:06:45,640 --> 01:06:46,400
Speaker 4: Brandon Staley.

1516
01:06:46,720 --> 01:06:50,080
Speaker 1: What uh yeah, that's a fair point. He's making me

1517
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,920
Speaker 1: look bad. Not the only one, Oh yeah taking shots

1518
01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:55,480
Speaker 1: at Brandon Staley. Right, I'm saying I'm not the only

1519
01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:58,160
Speaker 1: one Brandon Staley made look bad because it's him that

1520
01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:01,000
Speaker 1: made Eric Kendricks takes It's it's a tangled web. We

1521
01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:04,680
Speaker 1: should we take one more break. Let's do it on

1522
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:08,440
Speaker 1: the podcast. We will be back and wrap up our

1523
01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:24,400
Speaker 1: week to preview right after this back on NFL Daily.

1524
01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:29,480
Speaker 1: Wanted to hear some words from Tyreek Hill on Wednesday.

1525
01:07:29,480 --> 01:07:31,800
Speaker 1: Of course, they're playing on Thursday Night Football, so they're

1526
01:07:31,840 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 1: not part of this preview show. But this story of

1527
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:38,680
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill when he was detained from police officers and

1528
01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:40,720
Speaker 1: pulled out of his car has just been one of

1529
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:46,520
Speaker 1: the most upsetting and unique stories I can remember covering

1530
01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 1: the league in Tyreek Hill was on the podium talking

1531
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:50,200
Speaker 1: about it on Wednesday.

1532
01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:54,720
Speaker 6: Yes, I will say I could have been better. You know,

1533
01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:56,760
Speaker 6: I could have let on my window, you know, in

1534
01:07:56,840 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 6: that instant. It's shell shocking, man. Is really it's really

1535
01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:07,640
Speaker 6: crazy to know that, you know, you have officers in

1536
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:11,040
Speaker 6: this world that would literally do that with body cams on.

1537
01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:11,800
Speaker 2: You know.

1538
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:12,400
Speaker 3: It's sad.

1539
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:18,679
Speaker 6: It's really sad, which brings up another conversation and leads

1540
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:22,040
Speaker 6: into what would they do if they didn't have body cams,

1541
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:23,519
Speaker 6: which is even crazier.

1542
01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:27,160
Speaker 1: So, yeah, he said he didn't want attention, he didn't

1543
01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,400
Speaker 1: want to be cameras out. He saw the phones tape

1544
01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:31,720
Speaker 1: in them and and uh, that's what he was when

1545
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:33,519
Speaker 1: he was talking about the windows, and then he did

1546
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:35,080
Speaker 1: add and I wanted to put this in Now, does

1547
01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 1: that give them the right to literally beat the dog

1548
01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:37,479
Speaker 1: out of me?

1549
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:43,240
Speaker 3: Absolutely not, No, it doesn't if anybody's seen any of

1550
01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:46,400
Speaker 3: the multiple angles. There was one angle included, which was

1551
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:48,920
Speaker 3: frustrating me once I saw it on Sunday, because you know,

1552
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:52,800
Speaker 3: the verbiage that we use, the official verbage right, and

1553
01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:56,160
Speaker 3: the police or the arbiter effect, and their statements get

1554
01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:58,919
Speaker 3: to be presented as fact, and so it's it's detained.

1555
01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:01,599
Speaker 3: But there's a clear video of Tyrek Hill being struck

1556
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:04,880
Speaker 3: while he's being held by two officers and in handcuffed,

1557
01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:09,520
Speaker 3: and so the language that we would use in another circumstance,

1558
01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:12,679
Speaker 3: if that happened to one of the ten to fifteen

1559
01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:16,040
Speaker 3: police officers, there would be the Tyreek Hill assaulted besaults. Yes.

1560
01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:20,479
Speaker 3: But because the position right of the positionality and the

1561
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:25,040
Speaker 3: power structures only allow things to be said where people

1562
01:09:25,360 --> 01:09:29,080
Speaker 3: take what they say as a statement of fact as

1563
01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:31,280
Speaker 3: the universe's depiction of events, that we have to wait

1564
01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:34,200
Speaker 3: for evidence to the contrary, and time after time after

1565
01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:36,760
Speaker 3: time we find out that the initial reports from the

1566
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:40,360
Speaker 3: police don't actually represent the sequence of events. And my

1567
01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:44,960
Speaker 3: overall question is if public safety is the priority, and

1568
01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:48,719
Speaker 3: we have ten to fifteen officers devoted to this going

1569
01:09:48,800 --> 01:09:53,040
Speaker 3: sixty in a forty outside the stadium, then is the

1570
01:09:53,040 --> 01:09:57,240
Speaker 3: priority of public safety what's happening everywhere else? Or maybe

1571
01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:01,320
Speaker 3: the priority is just for this to be what happens.

1572
01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:04,920
Speaker 3: And I understand that Miami's investigating, and and Tyreek Hill

1573
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:07,240
Speaker 3: is saying that, you know, one officer should be fired.

1574
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:09,559
Speaker 3: There were a whole lot of officers were completely fine

1575
01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:12,719
Speaker 3: with that sequence of events. And were there no evidence,

1576
01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:16,680
Speaker 3: I think we would just only hear whatever they say happened. Well,

1577
01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:18,479
Speaker 3: let's bring it to something that was current in the

1578
01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:22,519
Speaker 3: sports world. When Scotty Scheffler got pulled over. Was he

1579
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:26,320
Speaker 3: getting roughed up? Okay, you see the dynamic I'm drawing here.

1580
01:10:26,360 --> 01:10:28,240
Speaker 4: If that were Scotti Scheffler who was speeding in his

1581
01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,960
Speaker 4: Lamborghini down there in Miami Gardens, would those four police

1582
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:33,720
Speaker 4: officers have rouffed him up the same way?

1583
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:35,400
Speaker 3: Had he if he handled things the same way?

1584
01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:38,360
Speaker 4: And yes, I've gone there because Patrick and I have experiences,

1585
01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:41,920
Speaker 4: We've seen this. Right, If it were a white dude

1586
01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:45,280
Speaker 4: built like Tyreek does en roll down his window.

1587
01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:47,880
Speaker 3: Are they yanking him out of the cart? Maybe okay?

1588
01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:51,120
Speaker 4: But after that, are they putting hands on him like

1589
01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:51,840
Speaker 4: the way they did?

1590
01:10:51,880 --> 01:10:53,360
Speaker 3: And the other part Patrick, because he showed me that.

1591
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:56,760
Speaker 4: Patrick showed me the tape when an officer kicked Tyreek Hill.

1592
01:10:56,800 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 4: That I had not seen before was the aggressiveness at which

1593
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:02,000
Speaker 4: they went after Kalay's Campbell, right, Like, what are we

1594
01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:03,880
Speaker 4: doing here? When Patrick talks about is the issue is

1595
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:06,000
Speaker 4: public safety, He's sitting here saying like, hey, this is

1596
01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:07,880
Speaker 4: my guy. I'm just making sure everything's okay here. I've

1597
01:11:07,880 --> 01:11:10,840
Speaker 4: seen that I'm making sure everything's okay here. This is

1598
01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:12,400
Speaker 4: one of the most decent human beings you'll ever meet.

1599
01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:16,439
Speaker 4: In clay Is Campbell, shit out up, I'm cuffing you up? Like,

1600
01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:20,440
Speaker 4: what are we doing here? These are four hyper adrenalized

1601
01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:24,080
Speaker 4: at least four hyper generalized police officers in the moment.

1602
01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:27,040
Speaker 3: And we know that police officers have a tough job

1603
01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:29,080
Speaker 3: to do, right that they save lives.

1604
01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:30,920
Speaker 4: There are the first people I'm calling when I'm in trouble,

1605
01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:34,519
Speaker 4: when I'm worried, Right, But this was a situation where

1606
01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:37,760
Speaker 4: it seemed like okay, once Tyreek did not drop his

1607
01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:40,639
Speaker 4: or lower his window upon the request of the police officer,

1608
01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:42,880
Speaker 4: which Tyreek said, I should have handled that better.

1609
01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:46,800
Speaker 3: It was hyper adrenaline mode. Let's go.

1610
01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:50,360
Speaker 4: And it is as Tyreek said, what if I wasn't

1611
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:52,680
Speaker 4: a famous football player, what if these guys didn't have

1612
01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:53,439
Speaker 4: body cams on?

1613
01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 3: You know, it's and.

1614
01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:58,640
Speaker 2: What would happen is what's been happening.

1615
01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:01,080
Speaker 3: For yam of time. We've seen.

1616
01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,559
Speaker 4: We saw the young man in Memphis where those police

1617
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:05,519
Speaker 4: officers would have probably gotten a way fort one for

1618
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:08,160
Speaker 4: surveillance camera because they turned their cameras off.

1619
01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:12,559
Speaker 3: Any number of incidents happened every single day that we're

1620
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 3: not going to hear about, correct, and we won't hear about.

1621
01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:17,120
Speaker 3: And I just I keep coming back because because I

1622
01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:20,599
Speaker 3: understand Tyreek has a particular beef right with the officer

1623
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:23,360
Speaker 3: who struck him right and the officer who took exception

1624
01:12:23,479 --> 01:12:25,559
Speaker 3: to the speed at which he rolled down his window.

1625
01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 3: But again, every officer that was there, whose job right

1626
01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:33,960
Speaker 3: allegedly is to protect public safety and de escalate situations,

1627
01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,880
Speaker 3: was completely fine with the things that happened, completely fine

1628
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:38,800
Speaker 3: because they allowed it to happen. That's their choice, that's

1629
01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:40,760
Speaker 3: the job they chose, and so if they're going to

1630
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:43,320
Speaker 3: do that right and occupy thirty three percent of the

1631
01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:46,920
Speaker 3: City of Miami's budget, maybe they should do it and

1632
01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:47,880
Speaker 3: real quick.

1633
01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:50,040
Speaker 4: I will say this, and it goes back to the

1634
01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,400
Speaker 4: late Jason Jenkins, who used to be the Dolphins media

1635
01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:54,040
Speaker 4: relations director, a friend of mine and one of the

1636
01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:59,760
Speaker 4: most astute people. The Dolphins have an incredible partnership with

1637
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:03,280
Speaker 4: police forces in Miami, Miami Gardens this and so it

1638
01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:06,479
Speaker 4: is gonna be interesting to see how this goes. I mean,

1639
01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:08,720
Speaker 4: it is a very very strong tie. I think I've

1640
01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:12,639
Speaker 4: even interviewed the police chief of Miami Gardens as part

1641
01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 4: of a program that the Dolphins had.

1642
01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:16,000
Speaker 3: How does this work.

1643
01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:17,599
Speaker 4: Are the police all of a sudden be like, we're

1644
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:19,840
Speaker 4: not gonna help you guys out because we're getting bad

1645
01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:22,800
Speaker 4: mouthed by you because you're talking tough with us. We've

1646
01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:24,680
Speaker 4: seen these threats before. We saw it in Cleveland a

1647
01:13:24,680 --> 01:13:27,559
Speaker 4: couple of years ago. So it's gonna be interesting to see.

1648
01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:32,160
Speaker 4: But hopefully the bigger conversation comes down to please do

1649
01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:34,200
Speaker 4: your job. You don't always have to be as physical

1650
01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:35,519
Speaker 4: and aggressive in doing so.

1651
01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:41,599
Speaker 3: Hopefully right and the outcome here is people who would

1652
01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:44,200
Speaker 3: have been less safe and less safe in these circumstances.

1653
01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:47,720
Speaker 3: Hopefully people in Miami, in the entire county area will

1654
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:53,080
Speaker 3: be safer throughout all of this. Maybe maybe, But guys,

1655
01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:57,439
Speaker 3: we have a bird fight on Monday Night football. Kirk

1656
01:13:57,439 --> 01:13:59,599
Speaker 3: Cousins and the Atlanta Falcons get a chance to get

1657
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:01,280
Speaker 3: back out and get a win. They are six and

1658
01:14:01,280 --> 01:14:05,559
Speaker 3: a half point dogs against Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles,

1659
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:09,200
Speaker 3: who got the win last week on Friday Night. Tro

1660
01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:13,759
Speaker 3: Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, and Lisa Salters on the call. Steve,

1661
01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 3: you've you've watched the Kirk o Chains version of Kirk

1662
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:21,599
Speaker 3: Cousins from from the exception to this point? Or are

1663
01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:23,479
Speaker 3: we going to get better from Kirk Cousins against the

1664
01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:27,439
Speaker 3: Eagles than we did in the loss against the Pittsburgh

1665
01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,519
Speaker 3: steel Yeah, they should. He should be better.

1666
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:31,560
Speaker 4: I mean he's facing a good defense, but not a

1667
01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:34,640
Speaker 4: Steelers defense, right. The Eagles, Yes, they went out and

1668
01:14:34,640 --> 01:14:36,959
Speaker 4: they tried to address their secondary, but it was still vulnerable.

1669
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,760
Speaker 4: I mean, you saw Jordan Love make plays against this

1670
01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:46,600
Speaker 4: Eagle secondary. So offensively. What drove me crazy watching the

1671
01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:50,080
Speaker 4: game with the Falcons and the Steelers was they were

1672
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:52,280
Speaker 4: like singing that we're gonna one on one block.

1673
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:54,200
Speaker 3: TJ.

1674
01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:56,879
Speaker 4: Watt, Well, you better not do that against the Eagles

1675
01:14:57,560 --> 01:14:59,559
Speaker 4: because they're gonna become what we spoke for you. I mean,

1676
01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:01,920
Speaker 4: this is this is a lou Anaumo defense. They're gonna

1677
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:05,400
Speaker 4: be blitzing, probably a lot more than the Eagles. They've

1678
01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:07,639
Speaker 4: got to do some stuff in the quick passing game,

1679
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 4: but it's just got to be a smarter passing attack.

1680
01:15:10,400 --> 01:15:10,680
Speaker 2: It was.

1681
01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:13,040
Speaker 4: It was all over the place. I think what they

1682
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:14,880
Speaker 4: try to do offensively was all over the place. Maybe

1683
01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:18,640
Speaker 4: condense the playbook. Protect better. I mean, look at that.

1684
01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:21,000
Speaker 4: These are all guys one on one beaters right here upfront.

1685
01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:23,920
Speaker 4: Protect better and you have an opportunity and run the

1686
01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:27,679
Speaker 4: ball better. Okay, we saw the Eagles g get gashed,

1687
01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:30,320
Speaker 4: you know in the run game a little bit sometimes

1688
01:15:30,320 --> 01:15:32,360
Speaker 4: with Josh Jacobs, run the ball a little bit. Better,

1689
01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:35,200
Speaker 4: go go with Bishon and go with Alagi year stay

1690
01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:37,920
Speaker 4: out of some of these situations. But I think I

1691
01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:41,360
Speaker 4: do think Kirk kirk Cousins will look better playing place.

1692
01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:44,120
Speaker 4: He did not look great in that game for a

1693
01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:46,120
Speaker 4: lot of different reasons. But again, the Steelers will do

1694
01:15:46,160 --> 01:15:47,559
Speaker 4: that to a lot of other quarterbacks, right.

1695
01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:51,200
Speaker 1: So I think the Falcons were too confident that their

1696
01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:53,559
Speaker 1: offensive line is just going to win matchups, like they

1697
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:56,320
Speaker 1: think of themselves as having one of the best offensive

1698
01:15:56,360 --> 01:15:58,200
Speaker 1: lines in the league for good reasons.

1699
01:15:58,240 --> 01:15:59,960
Speaker 2: But this is the new coaching staff. It's a different system.

1700
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:00,720
Speaker 2: You just never know.

1701
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,400
Speaker 1: And they were going up against maybe the best defensive

1702
01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:05,439
Speaker 1: front in the league, and so they lost those matches.

1703
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:07,800
Speaker 1: The thing that would concern me more is how they

1704
01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:11,960
Speaker 1: approached the game offensively and what that says about Kirk Cousins.

1705
01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:16,160
Speaker 1: There was not a single play action pass from Kirk

1706
01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:19,600
Speaker 1: Cousins in that game. Thanks so he had been averaging

1707
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 1: more than thirty percent of his play He is a

1708
01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:26,280
Speaker 1: guy that gets helped by defining what you can define

1709
01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:29,320
Speaker 1: by doing the play action pass, and that was extraordinarily

1710
01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:31,920
Speaker 1: successful for him when he was with the Vikings, and

1711
01:16:32,040 --> 01:16:34,479
Speaker 1: his numbers when he wasn't doing the play action pass

1712
01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 1: even with the Vikings last year, weren't that great. So

1713
01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:38,759
Speaker 1: how many times did he do it last week?

1714
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:39,280
Speaker 2: Zero?

1715
01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:43,200
Speaker 1: And you wonder if that's just because he's a mid

1716
01:16:43,280 --> 01:16:47,599
Speaker 1: thirties guy coming off an achilles tear, because the next

1717
01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:50,559
Speaker 1: gen stats number in terms of how much they moved.

1718
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:51,800
Speaker 2: I didn't know this was even a.

1719
01:16:51,760 --> 01:16:54,599
Speaker 1: Stat some of this stuff they have that they're digging up,

1720
01:16:54,680 --> 01:16:57,160
Speaker 1: that he moved an average of three point one yards

1721
01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:01,160
Speaker 1: per dropback. It is the least move ment he's ever

1722
01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:03,679
Speaker 1: had in a single game of his whole.

1723
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:07,160
Speaker 2: Career by more than a yard. And when you watched

1724
01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:08,720
Speaker 2: the couple of times, insane.

1725
01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:12,160
Speaker 1: When you watched a couple of times like he he

1726
01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:14,440
Speaker 1: he just didn't look like a guy who was confident

1727
01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:18,880
Speaker 1: in moving And it's real hard to play quarterback that way.

1728
01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:22,519
Speaker 3: And I guess now that my mind's a little blown

1729
01:17:22,680 --> 01:17:25,720
Speaker 3: by that stat how much of that was the Pittsburgh Steelers.

1730
01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:26,000
Speaker 2: Right, That's the thing.

1731
01:17:26,040 --> 01:17:28,080
Speaker 1: It's like one week you never know, but the whole

1732
01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:30,200
Speaker 1: not no play action and playing out a pistol does

1733
01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:30,960
Speaker 1: not make sense.

1734
01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:36,000
Speaker 3: That's bad. It was bad the time. There was not

1735
01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,200
Speaker 3: a lot of out like the you're so used to

1736
01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:40,840
Speaker 3: saying Kirk hit those inbreaking routes. He's hitting the defenders

1737
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:44,760
Speaker 3: in the face with those again week one caveat but

1738
01:17:44,880 --> 01:17:48,120
Speaker 3: who was not bad in their debut and saving things

1739
01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:50,120
Speaker 3: on the other side. As we look in the video

1740
01:17:50,160 --> 01:17:53,040
Speaker 3: show of just the passes that he did hit a

1741
01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:56,400
Speaker 3: couple to Drake London and and swinging back across, and

1742
01:17:56,439 --> 01:17:59,679
Speaker 3: there's a pick to Drake London. But the Kellen Moore

1743
01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:04,240
Speaker 3: Philip Delphia Eagles are such a departure where it's like

1744
01:18:04,479 --> 01:18:06,760
Speaker 3: you we talked about Todd Bowles and the Blitz with

1745
01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:10,960
Speaker 3: Hyden Daniels. The Blitz had the Eagles looking morose last

1746
01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:14,240
Speaker 3: year and then in the opener against Green Bay, aside

1747
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:16,920
Speaker 3: from you know, Jayleen will say that was a bad

1748
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:20,320
Speaker 3: decision on the interception, right, but they had answers for

1749
01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:24,680
Speaker 3: the Blitz in answers that I don't know if Atlanta

1750
01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:29,200
Speaker 3: right has the past rush capacity to bother the Eagles

1751
01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:30,400
Speaker 3: enough to keep them in.

1752
01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 1: There, though they might want to get a little more aggressive.

1753
01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:34,120
Speaker 1: His numbers were great against the Blitz, and there were

1754
01:18:34,120 --> 01:18:35,880
Speaker 1: a couple of really nice plays, one to god Or

1755
01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:38,599
Speaker 1: I think kal Katara was another one where just quick answers.

1756
01:18:38,600 --> 01:18:40,160
Speaker 1: It was awesome, But they didn't do any of those

1757
01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:43,160
Speaker 1: big blitz. Is that the things that really got that

1758
01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:45,080
Speaker 1: I would still try it. Try to throw to six,

1759
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:47,120
Speaker 1: try to throw seven, let's see what, let's see what happened.

1760
01:18:47,120 --> 01:18:49,640
Speaker 1: They were just seven five, and I just would be

1761
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:51,680
Speaker 1: curious to see that, But I don't know if Atlanta

1762
01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:56,160
Speaker 1: has necessarily the horses. Ad Terrell is a great cornerback.

1763
01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:59,640
Speaker 1: He had a tough yeah, tough Week one. Yeah, but

1764
01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:01,840
Speaker 1: gonna have a tough Week one. But that's that's the

1765
01:19:01,880 --> 01:19:04,920
Speaker 1: thing that Egles do against you. They have matchup advantages

1766
01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:06,160
Speaker 1: because their players are awesome.

1767
01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:08,960
Speaker 4: They but the ultimatum advantage of Saquon Barkley. I mean,

1768
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:11,040
Speaker 4: you talk about a blitzpeeder when you've got to also

1769
01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:14,680
Speaker 4: keep eyes on Saquon and you have to stop him

1770
01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:17,400
Speaker 4: in the run game, that's an issue, right, And we

1771
01:19:17,439 --> 01:19:21,080
Speaker 4: saw Pittsburgh het some runs against the Falcons and this

1772
01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:24,040
Speaker 4: was a close game, So you know, the six and

1773
01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:27,639
Speaker 4: a half number, yeah, I think that's a pretty big number.

1774
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:29,240
Speaker 4: I think Atlanta's offense is going to be better. I

1775
01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:32,080
Speaker 4: don't know Philly's gonna be as crisp as they were

1776
01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:35,679
Speaker 4: coming out of the gate. But man, when I watched Philly,

1777
01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:37,960
Speaker 4: I kept saying that if they're gonna keep getting better

1778
01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:41,759
Speaker 4: and better, and this offense is frighteningly scary, especially because

1779
01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:45,280
Speaker 4: the slim reaper Vonte Smithley really really good.

1780
01:19:45,280 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 1: On top of it, defense did some good things. Yeah,

1781
01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:49,760
Speaker 1: they do creative stuff their pass rush. I think they

1782
01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:52,640
Speaker 1: want to get more consistent. But Quinjon mitchell I did

1783
01:19:52,680 --> 01:19:54,040
Speaker 1: want to make sure I just mentioned him.

1784
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:59,240
Speaker 2: He just early, just real, just real positive vibe.

1785
01:19:59,240 --> 01:20:00,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to get over my skis here of

1786
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,439
Speaker 1: like no potential defensive player of the year type of stuff.

1787
01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:06,479
Speaker 1: But it was some real like okay, yeah and that

1788
01:20:06,600 --> 01:20:08,920
Speaker 1: and that backs up some stuff I some buzz i

1789
01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:11,639
Speaker 1: heard from there that they believe they got a real

1790
01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:12,160
Speaker 1: good one.

1791
01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:15,200
Speaker 3: How he does it again, they let him get away

1792
01:20:15,240 --> 01:20:17,639
Speaker 3: with it. So that's a big number. Six and a half.

1793
01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:20,920
Speaker 3: Let's add a half a point there. The Detroit Lions

1794
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:24,320
Speaker 3: at home favored over a Tampa Bay Buccaneers team who

1795
01:20:24,320 --> 01:20:26,920
Speaker 3: scored a billion points. It was the Washington Commanders a

1796
01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:30,000
Speaker 3: billion points against the Washington Commanders and opener Baker Mayfield

1797
01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:33,200
Speaker 3: throws four touchdowns. The game is on Fox over under

1798
01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:37,439
Speaker 3: fifty one. Greg. The Detroit Lions at the end of

1799
01:20:37,479 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 3: the game against the Rams were like, hey, we're the Lions,

1800
01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:43,000
Speaker 3: We're gonna run you over. It worked out, but seven

1801
01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:44,440
Speaker 3: seven points.

1802
01:20:44,160 --> 01:20:45,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's wild.

1803
01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:47,280
Speaker 1: I'm big on this Bucks team, and I thought the

1804
01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:50,080
Speaker 1: Lions had a pretty uneven performance they did what good

1805
01:20:50,080 --> 01:20:52,200
Speaker 1: teams do, which is maybe win a game where you're

1806
01:20:52,200 --> 01:20:54,920
Speaker 1: not at your best. But I wasn't overly impressed. And

1807
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:58,120
Speaker 1: the Bucks were at their best last week. And they've

1808
01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:01,200
Speaker 1: got guys who I think can really test this Lion's

1809
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:04,200
Speaker 1: secondary where Terry an Ardnold, I think he's going to

1810
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:07,720
Speaker 1: be good. He is aggressive, but had some penalties. They

1811
01:21:07,720 --> 01:21:10,400
Speaker 1: could have issues in the back end because I think

1812
01:21:10,479 --> 01:21:15,120
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers present matchup problems for you. Chris Godwin looks

1813
01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:17,320
Speaker 1: like the old Chris Godwin if the other if that

1814
01:21:17,360 --> 01:21:19,559
Speaker 1: guy ever went away, but after all the injuries he's had,

1815
01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:22,160
Speaker 1: he's back. McMillan, AD's a nice three, and Mike Evans

1816
01:21:22,240 --> 01:21:23,920
Speaker 1: is still Mike Evans. I don't know if Baker is

1817
01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:26,280
Speaker 1: going to be that good week after week, but I

1818
01:21:26,280 --> 01:21:27,840
Speaker 1: think it'll be a competitive game.

1819
01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:28,880
Speaker 2: Like the playoff game.

1820
01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:29,960
Speaker 4: It was a playoff it was it was a one

1821
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:33,280
Speaker 4: possession game. Again, this number is crazy to me. A

1822
01:21:33,320 --> 01:21:38,320
Speaker 4: seven point game. But yes, Detroit's at home and they

1823
01:21:38,400 --> 01:21:40,679
Speaker 4: had to grind it out against the Rams, a tough

1824
01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:41,960
Speaker 4: opponent who they knew they were going to have to

1825
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:45,479
Speaker 4: grind it out against. But I think Tampa Bay as

1826
01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:47,840
Speaker 4: we're seeing some of their offensive players. I don't know

1827
01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:51,040
Speaker 4: if Tampa's gonna function this well offensively because they might

1828
01:21:51,080 --> 01:21:53,439
Speaker 4: be playing from behind. You know, they might have to

1829
01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:57,200
Speaker 4: do some things that allow, you know, Detroit a certain way,

1830
01:21:57,240 --> 01:21:59,559
Speaker 4: but Tampa might be playing from ahead and they can

1831
01:21:59,600 --> 01:22:01,759
Speaker 4: they can, you can play a physical style of football.

1832
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:05,040
Speaker 4: I mean, this is gonna be a really, really tough game,

1833
01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:08,120
Speaker 4: and Todd Bowles is gonna be giving Ben Johnson looks

1834
01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:10,479
Speaker 4: that are gonna really this is gonna be a great

1835
01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:12,800
Speaker 4: chess match. I think some of the personnel groupings that

1836
01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:16,559
Speaker 4: Detroit's gonna use will probably end up winning some series

1837
01:22:16,640 --> 01:22:18,400
Speaker 4: for them. But I think the same thing could be

1838
01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:21,040
Speaker 4: said about some of the personnel groupings that the Buccaneers

1839
01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:23,599
Speaker 4: will be used defensively and slowing down this offense.

1840
01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:25,880
Speaker 1: I think the concern is that Antone Winfield is out

1841
01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:28,000
Speaker 1: of this game. You You've had a couple injuries in

1842
01:22:28,040 --> 01:22:29,639
Speaker 1: the back end, you have a couple injuries in the front.

1843
01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:35,080
Speaker 1: So they are missing somewhere between three to five starters total,

1844
01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:37,519
Speaker 1: and with a at least two to three in the secondary.

1845
01:22:37,520 --> 01:22:38,720
Speaker 2: That's worrisome against the wab Oh.

1846
01:22:38,800 --> 01:22:41,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, and just losing arguably one of your best players.

1847
01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:44,400
Speaker 3: I mean, mirk Evans. I agree with Kyle Brantz take

1848
01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:46,360
Speaker 3: the He's probably one of the best bucks to ever

1849
01:22:46,360 --> 01:22:49,360
Speaker 3: wear a buccaneer, you know. But Antoine Winfield Junior at

1850
01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:51,680
Speaker 3: this point is one of the better defenders in the

1851
01:22:51,800 --> 01:22:56,040
Speaker 3: entire NFL. That makes sense. But again, like we all agree,

1852
01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:59,479
Speaker 3: seven points, it feels feels like a lot. I do

1853
01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:03,200
Speaker 3: like the emergence where Jamis and Williams has felt like, yeah,

1854
01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:06,960
Speaker 3: window dressing, like decoration in this offense, and now he's

1855
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:10,160
Speaker 3: like a part of the foundation of the house where

1856
01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:12,800
Speaker 3: he gets all these targets. He had the stopping go

1857
01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:15,840
Speaker 3: on tre Davius White for the for the touchdown, he

1858
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:18,519
Speaker 3: gets hurt, comes back in the game, kind of guts

1859
01:23:18,520 --> 01:23:21,000
Speaker 3: it out and gets a game ball. I like what

1860
01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:24,840
Speaker 3: I see there, But I'm gonna need Jared to be

1861
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:26,560
Speaker 3: a little more comfortable in the pocket. He seemed like

1862
01:23:26,600 --> 01:23:29,360
Speaker 3: the Rams pass rush was bothering him through stretches of

1863
01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:33,639
Speaker 3: that game and had some inaccuracies that I wasn't used

1864
01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:35,760
Speaker 3: to seeing from Jared Goff in the opener. But maybe

1865
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:38,440
Speaker 3: week one we wiped that away and maybe they surpassed

1866
01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:39,559
Speaker 3: the seven points. Who knows.

1867
01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:39,800
Speaker 2: I know.

1868
01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:43,120
Speaker 1: Now I'm suddenly thinking this matchup just he'll be protected better.

1869
01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 1: I'm always worried about a team that, like they played

1870
01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:47,439
Speaker 1: poor one week, but they won Anyways, usually they play

1871
01:23:47,479 --> 01:23:49,000
Speaker 1: better than next week. Like maybe you get the A

1872
01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:51,479
Speaker 1: minus A version of the Lions this week, and you're

1873
01:23:51,520 --> 01:23:52,200
Speaker 1: gonna have to deal.

1874
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,040
Speaker 4: With it and you're gonna see as fantastic as Dave

1875
01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:55,679
Speaker 4: Montgomery was in that open.

1876
01:23:55,720 --> 01:23:57,400
Speaker 3: I think Jimmy or Gibbs played bigger role in a

1877
01:23:57,439 --> 01:24:01,720
Speaker 3: game like this. Spectacular play. Love it. I'm looking forward

1878
01:24:01,760 --> 01:24:05,000
Speaker 3: to that matchup. Bringing us to our final game. The

1879
01:24:05,080 --> 01:24:10,040
Speaker 3: biggest number of the week nine points Steve Grief nine

1880
01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:12,559
Speaker 3: points the Las Vegas Raiders going into M and T

1881
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:15,839
Speaker 3: Bank Stadium against Lamar Jackson, who was back at practice

1882
01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:19,000
Speaker 3: on Wednesday's. He sat out earlier in the week due

1883
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:21,840
Speaker 3: to some soreness because he went super hard. We talked

1884
01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:25,080
Speaker 3: about four hundred combined yard against the Kansas City Chiefs.

1885
01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:30,000
Speaker 3: Lamar's back and the Raiders again after getting gashed by

1886
01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:32,639
Speaker 3: former Raven JK. Dobbins, have to take on the King.

1887
01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:37,120
Speaker 4: Steve, Yeah, I'll be at this game on Sunday, but

1888
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:38,559
Speaker 4: I'm I'm saying I'll be at the game.

1889
01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:41,439
Speaker 3: Well, let anybody know he's a million miler, multiple airlines.

1890
01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:45,000
Speaker 4: But this number actually doesn't look contained to me, just

1891
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:47,760
Speaker 4: because the Ravens have so many things they can clean

1892
01:24:47,840 --> 01:24:50,360
Speaker 4: up on defense. Again, they really got out schemed and

1893
01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:52,680
Speaker 4: not coach, and they're gonna tighten it up. You know,

1894
01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:55,040
Speaker 4: with some of the matchups that did Andy Reeves scheming

1895
01:24:55,120 --> 01:24:58,240
Speaker 4: up against their linebackers, and Las Vegas just doesn't have

1896
01:24:58,240 --> 01:25:02,640
Speaker 4: the guys right. They've got Davonte, but other than that, offensively,

1897
01:25:02,680 --> 01:25:05,120
Speaker 4: there's no one you have. The two tight end stuff

1898
01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:07,320
Speaker 4: to the Ravens aren't familiar with two tight end stuff.

1899
01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:09,000
Speaker 3: I would work with that. I mean, that's all they.

1900
01:25:08,920 --> 01:25:09,960
Speaker 2: Rock powers look good.

1901
01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:12,360
Speaker 4: Look but I'm just saying that's all. They run, two

1902
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:14,320
Speaker 4: tight end stuff. They know they're going to practice the

1903
01:25:14,360 --> 01:25:17,280
Speaker 4: hell out of this. They're gonna have some answers for

1904
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,599
Speaker 4: the two tight end stuff that the Ravens that the

1905
01:25:19,720 --> 01:25:22,439
Speaker 4: Raiders are going to do. So, you know, IA think

1906
01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:25,160
Speaker 4: Baltimore's defense is going to look so much better than

1907
01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 4: this game. Lamar is not gonna have to do as much.

1908
01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:29,920
Speaker 4: They're gonna be able to run the ball a little

1909
01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:31,439
Speaker 4: bit better. With Dereck Henry. That's one thing that was

1910
01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:33,040
Speaker 4: driving me crazy in the game. I mean, it was

1911
01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:34,559
Speaker 4: a tight game and they just got they just got

1912
01:25:34,560 --> 01:25:37,320
Speaker 4: away from Derrick Henry. They start playing horizontal football.

1913
01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:41,439
Speaker 1: Well, I just think they're gonna figure out over the

1914
01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:44,040
Speaker 1: course of the season how to construct the running game

1915
01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:46,839
Speaker 1: out of Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, and they haven't

1916
01:25:47,040 --> 01:25:50,920
Speaker 1: yet because that's you know, Derrick Henry just makes more

1917
01:25:50,960 --> 01:25:53,280
Speaker 1: sense of it as an under center runner, but Lamar

1918
01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:56,840
Speaker 1: Jackson in shotgun and you can certainly they're smart, they're

1919
01:25:56,880 --> 01:25:59,400
Speaker 1: great players, they're good coaches. They can figure out how

1920
01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:01,960
Speaker 1: to marry it up up. But it felt like almost

1921
01:26:02,040 --> 01:26:04,920
Speaker 1: like two different types of offenses. And when Justice Hill

1922
01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:07,360
Speaker 1: was out there, that almost looked to me more like

1923
01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:08,679
Speaker 1: the Ravens offense.

1924
01:26:08,720 --> 01:26:10,320
Speaker 2: And I was surprised.

1925
01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:11,720
Speaker 1: And I know they were trailing in that game, but

1926
01:26:11,840 --> 01:26:14,040
Speaker 1: Justice Hill played a little more than Derrick Henry.

1927
01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:16,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, because they were throwing the ball around a little

1928
01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:17,880
Speaker 4: bit more. You know, two things. That's first off, that's

1929
01:26:17,920 --> 01:26:19,840
Speaker 4: a great point because I was talking to people before

1930
01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:22,600
Speaker 4: that game with the Chiefs and they said that shotgun

1931
01:26:23,280 --> 01:26:25,400
Speaker 4: style is different for Derrick Henry. We saw it when

1932
01:26:25,439 --> 01:26:27,400
Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson first went to Cleveland, they wanted to go

1933
01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:29,639
Speaker 4: under center. He's like, I want to go to Shotgun.

1934
01:26:29,680 --> 01:26:32,760
Speaker 4: It really was an odd marriage of what they wanted

1935
01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:35,000
Speaker 4: to do with the run game and also, and it

1936
01:26:35,640 --> 01:26:39,000
Speaker 4: got talked about a lot, maybe not enough, those illegal

1937
01:26:39,479 --> 01:26:42,960
Speaker 4: formation penalties that kept getting called on Ronnie Stanley. It

1938
01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:46,519
Speaker 4: really bothered Stanley in the offensive play, so maybe that

1939
01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:47,960
Speaker 4: it hampered their effectiveness.

1940
01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:49,080
Speaker 3: They're going to make up.

1941
01:26:49,080 --> 01:26:51,040
Speaker 4: I'm sure it's a point of emphasis for the Ravens

1942
01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:53,320
Speaker 4: this week to get it right, and I think that

1943
01:26:53,360 --> 01:26:55,200
Speaker 4: offensive line is gonna play better as a result.

1944
01:26:55,320 --> 01:26:58,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think considering Max Crosby and the problems that

1945
01:26:59,040 --> 01:27:02,000
Speaker 3: he can create, we're gonna see more pistol this week

1946
01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:04,759
Speaker 3: from from Monkin, and it kind of gets halfway between

1947
01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:08,000
Speaker 3: those issues because we saw that in Tennessee sometimes where

1948
01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:11,440
Speaker 3: Tannehills and Shotgun and Derek Henry's getting these slow handoffs

1949
01:27:11,439 --> 01:27:13,840
Speaker 3: and at that point in his career he's making it work.

1950
01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:17,120
Speaker 3: He does need to be a little more uh linear

1951
01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:19,840
Speaker 3: up and down the field in order to get things

1952
01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:24,960
Speaker 3: going now, but it's I'm I'm not taking the Ravens

1953
01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:26,719
Speaker 3: to to cover this nine points.

1954
01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:29,799
Speaker 2: Wow, I just there's some things that you're mister raven

1955
01:27:29,960 --> 01:27:30,439
Speaker 2: I am.

1956
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:35,400
Speaker 3: I've seen this team come in and have some some

1957
01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:40,280
Speaker 3: weird circumstances take place, and Gardner Minshew going into imman

1958
01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:43,000
Speaker 3: Ted Bank Stadium and having like a weird career game.

1959
01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:44,320
Speaker 2: This is some fans stuff.

1960
01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:47,600
Speaker 1: Usually Patrick's not giving the fans, but he's talking like

1961
01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:49,080
Speaker 1: almost like a Ravens fan.

1962
01:27:49,200 --> 01:27:50,559
Speaker 2: That's too skeptical. I saw.

1963
01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:53,040
Speaker 1: I'm not skeptical at all. I'm picking them as my

1964
01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:55,559
Speaker 1: Survivor pick. By the way, I don't know if we

1965
01:27:55,600 --> 01:27:59,679
Speaker 1: even are continuing this. Put play the music. Patrick took

1966
01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:03,080
Speaker 1: this Inincinnati Bengals last week. We only had the two

1967
01:28:03,080 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 1: of us in the studio at the time. I took

1968
01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:09,320
Speaker 1: the Bills, who made me sweat it out a little bit.

1969
01:28:09,439 --> 01:28:11,479
Speaker 1: They could have called that penalty on Deamar Hamlin at

1970
01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:13,479
Speaker 1: the end that I might have been out too. But

1971
01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:16,080
Speaker 1: the Bills survived and I'm taking the Ravens. I'm not

1972
01:28:16,160 --> 01:28:20,240
Speaker 1: overthinking it. When you play Survivor, don't overthink it. Because

1973
01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:22,400
Speaker 1: I was thinking Texans this week and I'm looking at

1974
01:28:22,439 --> 01:28:25,320
Speaker 1: future schedules. No, just take the game that would shock

1975
01:28:25,400 --> 01:28:28,679
Speaker 1: you the most. Take the real favorite, and I don't

1976
01:28:28,680 --> 01:28:29,479
Speaker 1: agree with you at all.

1977
01:28:29,560 --> 01:28:31,880
Speaker 2: I think it's twenty six to nine.

1978
01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:34,960
Speaker 1: It's kind of a boring game actually, where they just

1979
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:36,320
Speaker 1: put him to sleep.

1980
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:38,360
Speaker 2: And Steve, since you weren't here last week.

1981
01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:39,880
Speaker 3: I can't believe it, let him do a week two?

1982
01:28:39,880 --> 01:28:44,200
Speaker 2: Should we should we let let's ask the back? Should yeah?

1983
01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:44,479
Speaker 3: Eric?

1984
01:28:44,479 --> 01:28:46,960
Speaker 2: Should we let Steven and take a survivor pack?

1985
01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:47,240
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1986
01:28:47,240 --> 01:28:49,320
Speaker 1: Because I mean, this is a week season long bit

1987
01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:52,040
Speaker 1: that died in week one night happy? Would it be

1988
01:28:52,040 --> 01:28:54,760
Speaker 1: a funny bit if I'm just spiking the football for

1989
01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:57,439
Speaker 1: sixteen straight week? Because if you just ride with my picks,

1990
01:28:57,439 --> 01:29:01,120
Speaker 1: if you're listening out there, I'm gonna take you, uh

1991
01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:03,840
Speaker 1: to a whole lot of victory, a lot of us.

1992
01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:05,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna survive on the island. But I'll let you

1993
01:29:05,960 --> 01:29:07,240
Speaker 1: play too, Steve, you can jump in.

1994
01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:10,479
Speaker 3: He at the home. Okay, so we're going with Houston.

1995
01:29:10,560 --> 01:29:12,800
Speaker 2: Okay, play the music. We're letting Steve go in week dude?

1996
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:17,720
Speaker 2: Why not? Sorry? Sorry Patrick to me about bending the rules.

1997
01:29:18,080 --> 01:29:21,800
Speaker 3: I deserve it. I'm out. Jeff Probes has extinguished Mark Flint.

1998
01:29:22,640 --> 01:29:25,840
Speaker 1: It was a blast going over all these games with

1999
01:29:25,920 --> 01:29:26,439
Speaker 1: you both.

2000
01:29:26,920 --> 01:29:27,519
Speaker 2: In Week two?
