Hopefully everyone's doing well. 36 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: I just watched the Thursday night football game. The Bills 37 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: obliterate the Dolphins. Obviously, the story of the night is 38 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: Tua getting kot again concussion, and let's face it, the 39 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: questions are gonna begin. Does he ever play again? How 40 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: do the Dolphins handle this? My main question, does the 41 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: NFL get involved, and do they let him play again, 42 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: because that's at the forefront of everyone's mind. When you 43 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: see him go down and his arms shoot up in 44 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 1: the air like they did two years again, I'll go 45 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: so devastating night from the Dolphins. I mean, it was 46 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: an embarrassing night before that play. They were getting shalacked 47 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: and embarrassed at home, and then Tua goes down and 48 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: let's just be real, it feels like their season is 49 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: over and Tom Brady, is that a name that's gonna 50 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: get thrown? I bet you hear it on some shows tomorrow. 51 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: So I had a quick take on that, and then 52 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: on the Bills, who just I don't understand people questioning 53 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 1: the Bills, not just in this game, which they've now 54 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: beat the Dolphins. It was eleven and two, so they're 55 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: twelve and two in the last fourteen games, but just 56 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: big picture, like they're just a consistent The Chiefs are 57 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: in their own tier and they're right there with the Ravens, Like, 58 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 1: what the hell's the difference these last five years. Other 59 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: than that, I do want to dive into just the 60 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: pressure rankings this weekend. There are some teams that if 61 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: they lose, turmoil is about to break out. It's obviously 62 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: Fugazi Friday, so got to hit with a couple of fugazis. 63 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: Stucky will join us as well. Have a couple bets. 64 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: I don't like, I love, I Love, and your boys 65 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: hot just hit this Bills game, so I'm feeling some momentum. 66 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: Other than that, check out the YouTube channel, subscribe to that. 67 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: If you listen on Collins Speed, make sure you subscribe 68 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: to three and Out.

Here's what 71 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: you do. I was looking at it today because I 72 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: was looking at some tickets for the Oklahoma Texas game. 73 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: Might have to go get down in Dallas.

Part about tonight with Tua is 89 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,239 Speaker 1: the story of the game is not the bills killing 90 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: them is not the final score, is not the ownage 91 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: that the one franchise has over the other. And I 92 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: saw Lewis Riddick, who I worked for with the Eagles, 93 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 1: had a good tweet and it was a sad night 94 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: because nobody wants to see a player laying there like that, 95 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: especially one with a history. Is now, this conversation immediately 96 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 1: turns to will he ever play again? And I see 97 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: a lot of people on social media saying that he 98 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: should retire, and that's his own decision. I do think 99 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 1: that's easy to say. We've seen it before when I 100 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: was young, Steve Young had it happened to him, but 101 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: he was older. Tua is twenty six years old, does 102 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: not turn twenty seven. I looked it up before I 103 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: walked in here till March, so I can't even begin 104 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: to say, yeah, he'll just hang him up. But there's 105 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of pressure about putting him back 106 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: on the field because we saw two years ago the 107 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: Dolphins screwed up and it was a disaster for them. 108 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: They were embarrassed, as they should have been, and I 109 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: think this is going to be out of their control. 110 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: Roger was at the game. I think this is going 111 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: to be a decision from the NFL, and I think 112 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 1: the NFL is going to force their hand to not 113 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: allow this guy back on the field, because it's one thing. Listen, 114 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: we see guys get concussions all the time, and sometimes 115 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: you can kind of tell, sometimes you can't. Sometimes they're 116 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: on the sideline, all of a sudden they get checked 117 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: by the independent neurologist and then they're just gone. And 118 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: some of them are clear, right, you see the guy 119 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 1: wabbling on the ground. Sometimes you don't really notice, and 120 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, he's out with a concussion. 121 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: Tua's are the most cringe worthy ones I think I've 122 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: ever seen. Twice. I had to relook up this term. 123 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 1: It's called fencing. When his arms are straight up and 124 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: his fingers are kind of moving and rigid. It makes 125 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: your kind of heart and stomach drop. And the NFL 126 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: is not gonna want to see that anymore. And I 127 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: was texting around, like what are buddies and people in 128 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: the league where they think is going to happen? They're like, 129 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: what if you know, could he sign a waiver or whatever. 130 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: I don't think the NFL likes that visual as they 131 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: should not, and clearly like I'm not some medical expert here, 132 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: but tonight of the previous ones that happened in twenty 133 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: twenty two, obviously it was avoidable slide, and I would 134 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: imagine that clip is going to be shown to every 135 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: quarterback Friday morning, beside maybe Jared Goff, any guy that 136 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: could move fifty times tomorrow because those hits are avoidable. 137 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: You got a slide, and as Herfried said to it 138 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: can be a reckless runner. And he runs in ironically 139 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: to DeMar Hamlin, who is one of the most incredible 140 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: stories ever, almost dies on the field two years later, 141 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: starting safety for the Bills, who might be one of 142 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: the best teams in the league. But I'm prepared to 143 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: never see the guy play again. And I think you 144 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: saw the faces of Mike McDaniel as the game went on. 145 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: He was shell shocked. You saw Stephen Ross the head 146 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: shot of him in the suite. He looked like he 147 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: was ready to jump off a bridge, and then you 148 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: saw the shot of the GM who realize they're done. 149 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: It's over now. I didn't like the Dolphins that much 150 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: anyway before this happened. I thought they showed their true colors, 151 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: a team that doesn't have that much toughness. And I'm 152 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: not going to spend the night Tonight's not the day 153 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: to be critical of two of the player. But obviously 154 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: it wasn't going well for him to night at all. 155 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: And the gap between them and the Bills is as 156 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: wide as the Grand Canyon, if not wider. But now 157 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: they have a quarterback. Obviously they just extended him to 158 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: a very large contract, and the pressure is going to 159 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: be on to never allow him to play quarterback for 160 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: them again because it's not safe. And the visuals we 161 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 1: have of those injuries doesn't look like much we see 162 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: anymore in this NFL. That's the type stuff where guys 163 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: were lying there and you didn't know if they were 164 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: dead or alive. That happened for a long time over 165 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: the history of the NFL, and then about ten fifteen 166 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: years ago when the concussion stuff and the lawsuits and 167 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: the NFL is pivoted, and they've pivoted hard. And it's 168 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: why that everyone was so uneasy with what happened a 169 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: couple of years ago when it felt like they were 170 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: putting out a concussed player in these games who like 171 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: it just didn't feel safe. Now a lot of people 172 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: are gonna push to a like, you gotta retire, You 173 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: gotta retire. That's his choice. Man, Like, he has a 174 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: lot of money to attempt to keep playing. Obviously, he 175 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: gets a percentage of his contract is guaranteed no matter what. 176 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: But you can make a lot of money if you 177 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 1: continue playing. And at his age, I don't think I 178 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: understand if it's not an easy decision, But I think 179 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: this decision comes from Park Avenue and they say no Moss, 180 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: and there's gonna be a lot of pressure from them 181 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: and Roger about making sure that Tua's not on the 182 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: field for them anymore. And this is gonna be like 183 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: when most players get a concussion, they go in the 184 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 1: concussion protocol. Obviously, when you play on Thursday, you get 185 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: a longer runway into your next game. Like, I don't 186 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: think it's gonna fly the next Thursday. He's clear concussion 187 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: protocol obviously, the media pressure, the fan pressure, in the 188 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: league pressure. So I think it's fair to assume that 189 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: we're not gonna see Tua for a while. Now, does 190 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: that mean his career's over? Who knows? We've seen crazier. 191 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 1: Like I said Tamar Hamlin, I think legally died on 192 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: the field now. He's starting safety for the Bills, making plays. 193 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: Almost had a pick in the corner or in the 194 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: middle of the end zone. I guess it wasn't almost 195 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: a pick, but hit his hand, made some tackles, had 196 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 1: a bunch of tackles last week. Like isn't just a 197 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: contributing member like he was last year, Like he's a starter. 198 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: So I never say never, just in life in general, 199 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: but I do think tonight was a game changing moment 200 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: with this specific player and the way that it happened again, 201 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: the same exact visual, which is really hard to describe, 202 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: but you know when you see it and you just 203 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: kind of go speechless. It was tough to watch. I 204 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: do think, you know, the Dolphins season is over, so 205 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: I don't even know what else to say. I didn't 206 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: think they were a playoff team at the start of 207 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: the season. They're very, very fortunate right now to not 208 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: be zero to two. But Skyler Thompson, who ironically was 209 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: drafted fifteen spots ahead of rock Party, so it shows you, 210 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: like most seventh round quarterbacks look pretty shitty, and he 211 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: looked tonight like this. No pun intended a fish out 212 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: of water. But the Dolphins are done and the Bills 213 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: they didn't want to do it. I mean, they wanted 214 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: to beat them and blow them out, but obviously I 215 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: didn't want to injure Tua and one conversation, I would 216 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: imagine that's gonna come up, my guess in the next 217 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: twenty four hours. Tom Brady to the Dolphins cross my mind. 218 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: Remember a couple of years ago, a lot of rumors 219 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 1: about the Dolphins wanted to get Tom Brady as their quarterback. 220 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: It was like tampering stuff. When he was in New England. 221 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: It would be cool, Like I'm not against the story, 222 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: but at this point in time, he's several years older 223 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: than even when he retired. It's not like he's making 224 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: ten million dollars to call games. He's making thirty seven 225 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: and even though his first game clearly did not go 226 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: that well, I think at this point in time I 227 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: would be stunned. But sometimes you'll just be listening to 228 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: podcasts and you just hear people talk and it kind 229 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: of makes you think, like, I bet Tom misses it. 230 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, how would he not miss it? I 231 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: would imagine his arm still works. But from a football standpoint, 232 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: even if he did have ten percent interest, awful fit. 233 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: I mean, they have their offensive line is abysmal to 234 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: start with, and now they got a bunch of injuries. 235 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: So I think you just look at Miami, no Tua 236 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: for the foreseeable future, Skyler Thompson, whoever else. Maybe they 237 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: can sign sniff around the practice squad. And their season 238 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: is in major trouble. And you saw at the end 239 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: of the game when they are on offense down thirty 240 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: one to ten and Hill and Waddle are just chilling 241 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: on the bench, and even Herdstreet's like, yeah, it's not 242 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 1: the best look. And he's right because tonight before the 243 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: two injury, was a culture night, and Mike McDaniel is 244 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 1: beloved by certain people in the media. He's got this 245 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: quirky little shtick going. He's never won an important game 246 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: as a head coach. He was getting mollywoped tonight before 247 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 1: the TOUA story just overshadowed. I mean he was embarrassing tonight. 248 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: I regretted not putting more money on the Buffalo Bills 249 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: about five minutes before kickoff because that game was over 250 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: and that game was over quick. But the Bills culture, 251 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: we talk a lot about the Ravens and people think 252 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: I'm like negative with the I have a ton of 253 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 1: respect for them. The only people that they really can't 254 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: beat in big games, and we saw it last year. 255 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: It is like, yeah, mahomes do I think they could 256 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: beat every other team in the playoffs. I think the 257 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: same thing about the Bills. I would say the Bills 258 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: right now and the Ravens are mirror images of themselves. 259 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: They are championship level teams who and cultures most specifically, 260 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: have defensive minded head coaches, have a physical culture, and 261 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: have star quarterbacks. Now, I like Josh more than Lamar, 262 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: and I like the Ravens roster typically more than the Bills, because, 263 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, the Bills on defense they just always 264 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: have so many injuries. But tonight off a short week. 265 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: They have guys that, let's face it, for every Von 266 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: Miller they got, they got a couple other guys. I 267 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: gotta look up like, I don't really know who this 268 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: player is and they're running arount, their hair on fire, 269 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: making tackles and their quarterback is awesome. But one game 270 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: changing player for them that has added a physical element 271 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: that the Ravens have always been able to do because 272 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: they always have a good running game is James Cook. 273 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: And you saw him the night. He looks awesome. You 274 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: saw him last week, he looks awesome. You saw him 275 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: last season, he looks awesome. To me. He's kind of 276 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: changed them because for several years it was like they 277 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: were so past dependent on Josh and when you play 278 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: in these frigid temperatures late in the season, you're not 279 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: just going to be able to throw for three hundred 280 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: and fifty yards. It was always a bugaboo for the Packers. 281 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: It's like, you might play some January games in Lambeau. 282 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: We know you've got sweet wide receivers. This was during 283 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: the Aaron Rodgers era, and then what looks like, you know, 284 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: if Jordan Love is healthy, what's going to happen? During 285 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: this you got to have a physical back. What do 286 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: they do? They went out inside Josh Jacobs, They had 287 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Jones like that guy really really helps in cold, 288 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: inclement weather games, and that's what James Cook is. So 289 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: can the Bills beat the Chiefs? Their roster I don't 290 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: think is good enough, and defensively they're not good enough. 291 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: But I do think they have a championship level culture 292 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: and they have a championship like I believe Josh Allen's 293 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: a championship level quarterback. Does that mean he'll ever win one? 294 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: Like I believe Charles Barkley was a championship level player, 295 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: never won one. Everyone that ever played against Dan Marino 296 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: say he was one of the best players I ever 297 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: played against. Never won a super Bowl. So I don't 298 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: know if it's gonna happen. Obviously, they've had opportunities in 299 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: the past, and their coach got a little tight. But 300 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: Sean mcdermot's really good at his job. And I thought 301 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 1: this at the beginning of the season. I feel strongly 302 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: more strongly about it tonight. I think they're going to 303 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: cruise to this division and it would be their fifth 304 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: straight division. They're having the Patriot ownage thing that the 305 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: Patriots had for twenty years. The difference is the Patriots 306 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: were rattling off championships and the Bills, for whatever reason, 307 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: even going back to the early nineties, haven't proven to 308 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: win it. But in what world through these We'll see 309 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,239 Speaker 1: the Jets this weekend? But even let's just see even 310 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:08,919 Speaker 1: say they win. Let's say the Jets win by twenty 311 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: could you assume the Jets of forty year old Aaron Rodgers, 312 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: all their culture question marks, could beat this Bills team? 313 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: How could you assume that if they were playing next 314 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: week in New York or in Buffalo? How could you 315 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: bet on the Jets? How could you possibly do that? 316 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: I've been saying this forever about the Bills versus Miami. 317 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: In what world do we think these are even close 318 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 1: to equals? They're not. The Bills are chasing the Chiefs, not. 319 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: These other teams are just little roadblocks on their way 320 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: to the playoffs, where they go every single year. So obviously, 321 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: awful night with Tua. It sucks. Dolphin season ends abruptly 322 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: on September twelfth. Cool moment for demoor Hamlin for sure, 323 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: and obviously the Bills. Man, I feel even strong more 324 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: strongly about them now than I did at the begin 325 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: ending of the season, just because they got a pretty 326 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: good thing going. They really do. Joe Brady also has 327 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 1: resurrected his career after going to Carolina, getting fired by 328 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: Matt Ruhle, going to Buffalo as a quarterback coach, and 329 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: that seamless transition when they fired Dorsey and elevated him. 330 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: They have looked like a different animal. And maybe it's 331 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: his ability to utilize James Cook settling Josh down a 332 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: little bit tonight. But man, the Bills look good. Okay, 333 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: let's dive into a couple other things. The thing is, 334 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: after this weekend, you're gonna have some own two teams, 335 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 1: and some are gonna feel way worse than others, but 336 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 1: they're all gonna feel really shitty. And the cool part 337 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: about football, unlike the other two sports, you know, team 338 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: sports and baseball and basketball, because of the contract setup, 339 00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 1: for the most part, there is a very very small 340 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: personage of players on scholarship, and as we have seen 341 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: over the years, even the players on quote unquote scholarships 342 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: because they're contracts are enormous, doesn't hold much weight when 343 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: you're losing. And the thing in football is and this 344 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: is cool. So many guys, random guys, right late round 345 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: draft picks, undrafted free agents, guys who have bounced around 346 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: on practice squads make the fifty three man roster. And 347 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: that is an incredible accomplishment to go into Week one 348 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: on the fifty three man roster. But you do have 349 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,439 Speaker 1: to keep your spot because in this league, and trust me, 350 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: for three years in the NFL, well, I guess the 351 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: two I worked in the office. I printed out the 352 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 1: waiver wire every single day and handed that thing out. 353 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: And as the season goes, obviously when people get injured, 354 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: you have to make transactions. But people will get waived, 355 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: people will get benched, and people will get cut because 356 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: they have been benched constantly throughout the season, and it 357 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:02,360 Speaker 1: usually happens obviously could happen after or wins. If remember Belichick, 358 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: the one duo is late to a meeting. I mean, 359 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 1: there are specific instances, but when you play poorly, especially 360 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: when you're not making a lot of money, your job 361 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: is always in jeopardy. So just because you make the 362 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,959 Speaker 1: fifty three man roster, if you make it and you're 363 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: the starting right tackle, you're the starting middle linebacker, the 364 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: starting safety or the starting slot, wide receiver, slot corner. 365 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: You start playing crappy, you not only will get benched, 366 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: you might get cut and maybe they want you on 367 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 1: the practice squad, but your spot on the big roster 368 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: can go, Sayinara in one game, and definitely over the 369 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: course of a couple games when that team is losing, 370 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: because especially this early in the season, you know position 371 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: coaches or coordinators are not going to get fired yet, 372 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: but players will be sent home right like you're no 373 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 1: longer starting for us, or you're no longer rotating in. 374 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 1: We're cutting you to make a spot for another guy, 375 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: to see if that guy's any better. And that's going 376 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: to start happy after this week, because when teams lose, 377 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: changes are made, and I think when you look at 378 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: the schedule, there are I got a little implosion watch 379 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: that I'm keeping an eye on. First and foremost, we 380 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 1: talked about the scholarship. Daniel Jones makes a lot of money, 381 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 1: but can you afford to look awful against the Vikings, 382 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: get your ass kicked and then play Washington who is 383 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: not very good, who has a rookie quarterback and keep 384 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: losing and keep your job now even if they look 385 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: bad again, and he plays bad. Do I think he'll 386 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: get benched week three? I would probably bet against it. 387 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: But the one thing is when there is momentum and 388 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 1: people start talking, fans start talking, you can you know 389 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: the owners thinking it. There's this negative emotional avalanche that 390 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 1: starts rolling down the hill and it's clear where everything 391 00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: is headed. And once that starts, the only way to 392 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,479 Speaker 1: stop it. Like in real life, there's no stopping one 393 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: of those avalanches. It just either stops on its own 394 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: or takes everything out. In football, you better win a 395 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: game and play well because if you don't those they're 396 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: eventually gonna make a move. And the margin for air 397 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: with this player, because all the previous negativity couldn't be 398 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: any higher. So Daniel Jones better play well, and he 399 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: better play well fast. And if you're Brian day Ball 400 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: like you, it feels like you're coaching for your job 401 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: a little bit. So that's gonna be a fascinating thing 402 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,479 Speaker 1: to watch. I like the Giants this weekend, and I 403 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: feel disgusting doing that, but I'm no dummy. Very possible 404 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: they lose, very possible. Daniel Jones. I don't care whether 405 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: he's playing Dion Sanders or the worst secondary in the 406 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 1: league can throw pick sixes at any moment, could be 407 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: trouble one team. And this is it was evident the 408 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: other night on Monday Night football and it's like, oh, 409 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: they're playing one of the best teams. That wasn't the point. 410 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,919 Speaker 1: It was how little effort it felt like they were 411 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: land with. It was like, how little adjustments it felt 412 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: like they have in their back pocket. And I think 413 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: the thing with the Jets is you look at most 414 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 1: of the good teams in the NFL. They've been playing 415 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: together for a while. So part of just playing football 416 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna have some bad weeks. You actually learn a 417 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: lot from that as a group, as individual units offense 418 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: and defense, how hard you get coached that week, the 419 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: changes you make, and obviously the successes you have as 420 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: a group. Right, look at the forty nine Ers and 421 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 1: the Chiefs that they've been playing together for half a 422 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: decade or more. The Ravens, the core of their group 423 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: has been together for a while. The Lions are now 424 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: going on four plus years. Is this core? And you 425 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: look at the Jets, You're like, Aaron's played one game 426 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: in four plays with all these guys. One game in 427 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: four plays and a lot of question marks with the 428 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: coaching staff. Doesn't feel like that many people believe in that. 429 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: I think they got implosion written all over them if 430 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: they don't win this week and everyone in their mother's 431 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,360 Speaker 1: picking them. I think the Titans actually played pretty well 432 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: last week, beside a block punt and one of the 433 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 1: worst plays you'll ever see from Will Levis, But that 434 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 1: defense is good. That defense looked really, really physical against 435 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: the Bears. I mean, they were embarrassing the Bears and 436 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: like I said, rookie quarterback, but they still got Roma Dunesday, 437 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen, DeAndre Swift, Cole Comet, DJ Moore. That was 438 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: an ass kicking. I like the Bears personnel a lot 439 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: more than the Jets in the totality of it. Now. 440 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: Rogers is clearly better than Caleb Williams as of today. 441 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 1: But I don't think that's an easy game. And then 442 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: they played the Patriots on Thursday night. You talk about 443 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: kind of a powder keg of just this thing get ugly, 444 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: and this thing could get ugly fast. Just better win 445 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: this week and last, but not least a lot like 446 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 1: the Daniel Jones thing. This Isshaun Watson has been going 447 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 1: on for longer, and unlike Daniel Jones, there is this 448 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: whole other element of character, lawsuits, sexual assault, that is 449 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 1: just something that just people are disgusted and tired of. Right, So, 450 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: when you play well and you're going through shit, it's 451 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: pro sports. It's about winning and losing. It's about making money. 452 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 1: No one cares, but you better win if you're gonna 453 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: get no one caring. The media will, but you don't 454 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,679 Speaker 1: have to listen to them when you're winning. When you 455 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: start losing, it's really hard to hide. And that's how 456 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: the Browns feel like. They don't get to hide behind success. 457 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: They had it last year and DeShawn was nowhere to 458 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: be seen because they put them on injury reserve. Flacco 459 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 1: got to seal all the day. And Flacco is a 460 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: great story. It's like, oh, great family man off the couch, 461 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 1: taking us kids to school. It was easy to wrap 462 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 1: your arms around. Deshaun Watson that we saw on Sunday 463 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: against the Cowboys has kind of been the same guy 464 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: I've seen throughout his career since he got traded. Blow 465 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: average does not look good, like the twitch is gone 466 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: used to be. Like when you watch a lot you 467 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 1: watch Jayden Daniels. When he makes a move, You're like, damn, 468 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 1: he's quick, right. You watch Josh Allen when he moves, 469 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: You're like, damn, it's a twitchy athlete. You watch DeShawn, 470 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: he just looks like men to me. His athleticism feels 471 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: like a shell of himself. And obviously the ability to 472 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: play quarterback does not look good. And the playmaking is 473 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 1: completely gone. So I don't see what's gonna change, like 474 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're just gonna find it. Not 475 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: saying you can't like throw a touchdown or whatever, but 476 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: I have a hard time just like, oh yeah, Deshaun 477 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: Watson went twenty four to thirty through three touchdowns. It 478 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 1: was one of the best players of the day. I 479 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: think those days are way gone and not coming back. 480 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: No one likes this guy, beside David Malgeta, who made 481 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: a ton of money off him, and then Deshawn's family, 482 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: who obviously is probably getting some money too, and his lawyers, 483 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 1: lawyers making a lot of money after Sean. But in 484 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 1: terms of Cleveland, the fan base, they gotta be out 485 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: and I would imagine and they got to be good company. Man. 486 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,959 Speaker 1: The coaching staff can't be high on this player. Now, 487 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: do I think he's gonna get benched week three if 488 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: he has a bad game Week two? No, I do not, 489 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: But I've started to come around this week of like, yeah, 490 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: this probably ain't gonna last long. How it works the 491 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: financial ramifications, I don't know, but I have a hard time. 492 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: And we've seen recent examples of Carson Wentz. Now he 493 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: got traded. Nobody the XFL wouldn't trade for this guy 494 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: right now. Right we saw Russell Wilson get cut. It'd 495 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: be more financially punitive because of the numbers. Now there 496 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: are ways you can split it up over years, but 497 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: it's still pretty complicated. But I think you kind of 498 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: feel that hour glass that sand's going and it's going, 499 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: and I don't know how much is left and how 500 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: long they'll just let him just be terrible every week. 501 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: So to me, that is something to keep an eye on, 502 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: Like this is a story that feels like it's not 503 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: slowing down. A couple things for Fugazi Friday. I got 504 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 1: this DM and it made me laugh because it made 505 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: me think of my grandpa. This is from Coleman Fugazi Friday. 506 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: I was sitting on a plane waiting to take off 507 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: from Phoenix. The dude next to me pulls out a 508 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:30,719 Speaker 1: used Kleenex from his pocket and blows his nose. That 509 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: part is fine. The gross part is that he put 510 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: his tissue back in his pocket, used it over and 511 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: over again. I just hate when people reuse the same 512 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: tissue and put it in their pocket. It's got to 513 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: be a fugazi, right. It's not technically a fugazi, but 514 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: it made me laugh. My grandpa would he Woodrow middlkoff rip. 515 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: He came from a generation he was born like in 516 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: the Great Depression, fought in World War Two, and I 517 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: remember being a little kid and just he was not alone. 518 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: They would have like that handkerchief that was like something 519 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: you'd put around like people in Western movies that would 520 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: rob banks, would roar around their faces, and you have 521 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: it in his pocket. Anytime he needed to blow his nose, 522 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: he'd pull that bad boy out and he was not alone. 523 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: Like depending on where you lived, there were a lot 524 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: of people, especially older people, that use this move. I 525 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: don't think I've seen that move happen in fifteen plus years, 526 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: but I do believe, and maybe it's just like when 527 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 1: you grew up, these aren't hard times now and these 528 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: listen depending on who you are, how much money you're making, 529 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: an inflation. I'm not saying they are always easy times 530 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: for everybody, but like you grew up in the Great Depression, 531 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: you grew up in the forties, the fifties, life was 532 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: a little harder, not debatable, not debatable, And I do 533 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: wonder if there was like a scarcity element to that. 534 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: So maybe like this guy's dad did that and it 535 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: has been his go to move. It is disgusting. I'm 536 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 1: more of a fan of the snot rocket. Obviously gotta 537 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: be outside to pull that move off. But I couldn't 538 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: even imagine blowing my nose and putting it back in 539 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: my pocket, partly because you'd have to do a perfect fold. 540 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: Like what if you had a lot of phlegm and 541 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: it gets on your shorts or your jeans or whatever. 542 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: It's just disgusting. But I do think that historically, for 543 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people that grew up of a certain generation, 544 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: maybe they didn't have clean out like boxes of Kleenex. 545 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: Maybe they were expensive. I don't know, but I he 546 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 1: was not alone with that move. There were a lot 547 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: of people that used to pull that out of their 548 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 1: back pocket traditional cable versus Internet. I know what you 549 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: have been harping on this for a while, but there 550 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: was a pivotal moment that happened over the weekend that 551 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: pushed me to make the switch. I'm a Niners fan 552 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: living in North Carolina, and therefore the regional game is 553 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: always the Panthers. For the opening week of the season, 554 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: the television game at one PM was the Panthers and Saints. 555 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: No matter how terrible the score got and how how 556 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: awful the play was, they refused to change it to 557 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: a different game. I felt like Malcolm McDowell and Clockwork Orange, 558 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: having my eyes force open to watch the horrors of 559 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: Bryce Young in that offense, never again sharing For those 560 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: who were like me and choose the comfort over change. 561 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: YouTube TV is where it's at. Now. Here's the thing. 562 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: If I didn't have the NFL package on my YouTube TV, 563 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: or you didn't and you were living where you live, 564 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: you only get multiple regional games, So you get whatever 565 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: your regional game is, and then, depending on how the 566 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: day is set up, another game because that's a Fox game, 567 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: a game on CBS. But you don't get unlimited games 568 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: unless you pay for it, which is the Sunday package, 569 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: which I gladly pay for. But just because you have 570 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: YouTube TV, you can still get put in that predicament. 571 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: You are at the control of the network changing the game. 572 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: I never understand this, and clearly there are rules and 573 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: you know when it comes to networks, but like, you 574 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: get to a point and it doesn't happen that often 575 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: in the NFL, But the Saints game, I stopped paying 576 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: attention after like a couple of minutes in the third quarter. 577 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: It was so over and there were other games going 578 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: on in the NFC that you know, people want to 579 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: watch or just that are more interesting. Now. I I 580 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: also struggle, like understand if I was running a network. 581 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: It's one thing that this was baseball and you play 582 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: one hundreds. You only play seventeen of these, so you 583 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: don't get that many bites of the apple to watch 584 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: a team. Now it's not exactly like this is the 585 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboy. You're talking about the Carolina Panthers. But I 586 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: hear you. But just know this, if you get YouTube TV, 587 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 1: you don't just automatically get all the games like you 588 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: have to purchase that, which should be an easy purchase 589 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: if you're a football fan. I get a lot of 590 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: this because obviously getting married and you know about six 591 00:32:55,480 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: months about the fugazi of wedding costs, and I'll go 592 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: back to the vet thing, like the vet thing. My 593 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: issue with that is it's like I can't speak to 594 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: my dog. So the dogs being sick and she's just battled. 595 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: I mean she is, She's a tough little dog. She 596 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: beat the disease. I think feels normal now, but like 597 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: the communications impossible. Even with human health care, at least 598 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: the individual can say like that that's not right, I 599 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: don't feel that, or something's off. You gotta check this. 600 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: The dog's helpless. It can only bark and lick, right, 601 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: So the wedding, I get a lot of this, like 602 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: how crazy your wedding costs? Well, everything costs her high. 603 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: So someone hit me up like what's the cheapest budget 604 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 1: non courthouse, which was my idea but got shot down fast. 605 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: You've ever seen for a wedding that's successfully execute. I 606 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: think the thing with other people getting married, unless you're 607 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: really close friends with them or they're a family member, 608 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: it's not like you brag or really promote what you 609 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: spent on the wedding. Everyone just kind of knows it's expensive, right, 610 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: and depending on how many people you have. Right, We're 611 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 1: trying to do a smaller wedding, and it's still gonna 612 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: like what's the budget for your own wedding. There's not 613 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 1: like a specific budget, but I mean had a ballpark. 614 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 1: You know, we're going to Nashville. I don't know. We 615 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,439 Speaker 1: hope like fifty grand, probably end up being seventy five. 616 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: But again, we're doing a smaller wedding. You know, there 617 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: might be sixty people there. Like I said, I would 618 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:30,919 Speaker 1: have been cool with going to the courthouse. I'm about 619 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: to be forty years old. I didn't need it, but 620 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: I do understand the importance of it, not just for 621 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: her but for family. So I've not only come around 622 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: like I want to do it, but like she's very 623 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,479 Speaker 1: hands on with this. The costs are high. I mean 624 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,919 Speaker 1: I'm talking non the venue. I mean, we're getting married 625 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:56,239 Speaker 1: the four seasons, but the actual venue actually wasn't that expensive. 626 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: It really wasn't, especially because maybe it's just Nashville is 627 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: different than like Los Angeles or Scottsdale or New York 628 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,720 Speaker 1: or whatever in terms of price. But where they really 629 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: get you is like the flowers I mean the price 630 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: of flowers, but like whatever the price was. When you 631 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: hear some of these numbers, like if you know someone 632 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: like Eyah, we spent sixty grand on a wedding in 633 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, Well it's not really comparable. It's like, yeah, 634 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: I bought this car for forty grand twenty fourteen. Well yeah, 635 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: that car now is seventy nine thousand dollars. So it's 636 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: like you can't you do with housing all the time, Like, God, 637 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: you bought that house for four hundred grand. Yeah, well 638 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: it's twenty ten. One of the craziest financial crisis in 639 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 1: the history of the world just happened. So like it's 640 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: not apples to apples, so I don't get as angry 641 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: like I do. Like every time I go to Starbucks, 642 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 1: in our orders just two large cole brews, I get 643 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: half an alf she gets a little cold foam sometimes. 644 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: You know, I'd like I make coffee most mornings, but 645 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 1: everyone while just like, you know what, I just want 646 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 1: a Starbucks cole brew. Get in the car, like six 647 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: or fifteen in the morning, go there. The line's always long, 648 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: and then they hand me the thing and it's like 649 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 1: sixteen dollars and it's like, listen, you're working. I can't 650 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: tip you. Though if you told me my two co 651 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,959 Speaker 1: col brews were I don't know, seven dollars and fifty cents, 652 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: I'd have no problem just giving you a ten and 653 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 1: telling you to keep it. But when you're handing me 654 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,479 Speaker 1: to Cole Bruce for seventeen dollars or whatever it turns 655 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,959 Speaker 1: out to be every morning, like I feel zero shame 656 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 1: tipping where like I do get the wedding, like I 657 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,320 Speaker 1: haven't been turned off, but the flowers are kind of crazy, 658 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: But everything else I kind of go, Yeah, it's just 659 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 1: no matter what you do now, you're a new air conditioner, 660 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 1: you need to get your house painted, you need whatever. 661 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, buying clothes, you name it. Everything 662 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: is dramatically more you in a weird way. You just 663 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 1: kind of be able to come numb to it and 664 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: just try to figure out either a way around it 665 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: or hit up as many people. I would say, the 666 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 1: best part about twenty twenty four is it's never been 667 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,320 Speaker 1: easier to like source or crowd source. Right, So it's like, okay, 668 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 1: you're offering me, let's just pick a number. You're telling 669 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 1: me the flowers are gonna be ten thousand dollars. Just 670 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 1: pick it in the even number. Well, I'm gonna hit 671 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 1: up ten more people and see what i can find. 672 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 1: And I'll promise you, if you're willing to do the work, 673 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: you find someone that will give you the same thing 674 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 1: for six two hundred dollars. So you've always had the 675 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 1: Yellow Pages or whatever, but it's never been easier with Instagram, DMS, Internet, 676 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 1: like you can find a lot of options. Takes effort 677 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: and take some time. But I think, and I've said 678 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,720 Speaker 1: this forever, like the difference of my generation and my parents' generation. 679 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 1: My parents would use the same people for every task, 680 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: no matter what it was, Like they would go to 681 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: the same car wash my entire life. They would have 682 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,319 Speaker 1: the same people if they needed, you know, wanted to 683 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 1: remodel something. They would use that same guy for everything 684 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: they ever did, whether there's good, there was like very 685 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 1: loyal that you know people older people were just very loyal. 686 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 1: You just used to use I'll usually if you suck 687 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: get a new guy. I went through three landscapers. I'm like, 688 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: this guy's kind of fucking me, and you're like, oh, 689 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 1: this guy's kind of screwing me too. Because you just 690 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 1: kind of ask around. You're like, God, they're charging you what? 691 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 1: And you just things change quick And I would say 692 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: the ease in which you can find different options. Now, 693 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: you've always been able to find different options, but it's 694 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: never been easier to contact those options, I would say, 695 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 1: and just find more options that might not have been 696 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 1: the phone book or whatever, just because of the Internet. 697 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 1: So that's been using that, not me. I haven't done anything, 698 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: to be honest with you, but she has just takes effort. Okay, 699 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 1: back at it again with my main man, Sucky from 700 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: the Action Network Action Network podcast. I was actually watching 701 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 1: last night on YouTube laying in bed. He had some 702 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 1: takes that I'm interested to hear and big bets on 703 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: campus the college slate. I got one game. Maybe we 704 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 1: can hit at the end, but it's not. Sometimes these 705 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 1: early weeks, the first two weeks you get some good matchups. 706 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 1: This week's kind of nah. But the NFL, even the 707 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: first couple of weeks on paper doesn't look that great. 708 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 1: But whatever, it's the NFL. I know, Stucky, you have 709 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: some great nuggets in terms of week two, the overreactions, 710 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: the stats on teams to get their ass kicked on 711 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: teams that lose because this is always a big swing 712 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 1: week because I hate it when people like don't overreact, Well, 713 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 1: we only have one game sample size to go out. 714 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: What were we supposed to do? Just pretend the game 715 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 1: didn't happen, Like, oh yeah, de Shan Watson might be okay, No, 716 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 1: he might not be. You know, the Giants and the 717 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 1: Panthers have sucked for a while. But gambling, you gotta 718 00:39:56,680 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 1: be careful with that, especially when we're talking points spreads. Uh, 719 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: just week two, the vibes going into week two for 720 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: you trends you look forward to. 721 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the college slide is not great. I mean 722 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 3: I every Saturday and Sunday from the start of football 723 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 3: season to the end. I mean I'm either on my 724 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 3: couch or a bar from noon until three in the morning. 725 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 3: But you know, if you're if you're not like me 726 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 3: and you have a significant other that's been hounding you 727 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 3: to spend more quality time on a Saturday, this would 728 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:35,799 Speaker 3: be the one if you had a pick to like, 729 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 3: sneak out and do something and then you know, get 730 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,839 Speaker 3: some brownie points to the rest of the season because 731 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:43,320 Speaker 3: the rest of the Saturday is gonna be good with 732 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 3: this one. I mean game days, game days in Columbia 733 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 3: for uh, South Carolina LSU. That's that. That tells you 734 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 3: all you need to know Kentuck Georgia comes to Kentucky. 735 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 3: I was hoping Kentucky didn't get completely blown out last 736 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 3: week against South Carolina was embarrassing game. I thought game 737 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 3: Day was gonna come here. I was potentially gonna go 738 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 3: to the game on Saturday night. Kentucky twenty four point underdogs. 739 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:13,799 Speaker 3: It was ugly. But yeah, not the greatest college football slate. 740 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,839 Speaker 3: But when before I get to the NFI, I will say, 741 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 3: whenever you think that the college football slate though, isn't good, 742 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 3: then it ends up being chaotic. So who knows. You know, 743 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 3: last week he saw Northern Illinois beat Notre Dame. You 744 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:27,839 Speaker 3: might have a you'll have a couple of upsets that 745 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:29,439 Speaker 3: no one sees coming this week. 746 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: But yeah, NFL we two. Is that one of the 747 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:35,760 Speaker 1: biggest underdogs to win in a long time in college Yeah. 748 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 3: I think in like two to three years. I remember 749 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 3: the biggest that I can remember one year, this was 750 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 3: like ten plus years ago. Stanford beat UFC one year 751 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 3: is like forty point underdogs. 752 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: It was hard. 753 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 3: First year yeah, the biggest that I can remember the week. 754 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 3: It was a weird one. And this is like three 755 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:06,280 Speaker 3: or four years ago. UNLV lost to Howard, an FCS 756 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 3: team in the opener. They were forty five point underdogs, 757 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 3: but twenty eight and a half. Yeah, it's rare, so 758 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 3: it'll probably be I mean, touch fotball is a lot weirder. 759 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 3: Now if all the roster turnover, maybe you get another 760 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 3: huge one, but it'll probably be the biggest upset of 761 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:28,640 Speaker 3: the season from a point spread perspective, you know, something 762 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 3: that happens like once every couple of years. So yeah, 763 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 3: it was. 764 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: It wouldn't have been on the level. But there were 765 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 1: two games I did a little like just one hundred 766 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 1: dollars parlay on all the huge favorites and none of 767 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: them covered. I mean, Alabama usf owns them. But Boise 768 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:47,240 Speaker 1: was almost a twenty point favorite or I mean underdog, 769 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:50,480 Speaker 1: and they easily could have won that game. Justin Houston, 770 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: who looked I mean atrocious Week one gave Oklahoma everything 771 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 1: they could handle. 772 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 3: That was suerly. 773 00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 1: That line was like twenty four or twenty five, so 774 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: I mean you they were obviously Notre Dame lost the game, 775 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 1: but there were other teams holding on for dear life. 776 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I argue Boise States should have beat Oregon. Oregon 777 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 3: had two special teams touchdowns in that game. Without that, 778 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,239 Speaker 3: they they should have lost. Gent was amazing. I think 779 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 3: he's the best back in the country. And I think 780 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 3: that Houston arguably should have won too. Oklahoma, but they 781 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,439 Speaker 3: got They played TWU Lane this week and they got 782 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 3: Tennessee and that defensive line. But next week and their 783 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,240 Speaker 3: offensive line is a mess. I mean, they're down their center, 784 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 3: they're tackle their backup center. They're playing another kid was 785 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 3: one arm, not literally one arms, but he basically has 786 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 3: one healthy arm. They reset their entire off there. They 787 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 3: lost all five starters and their offensive line from that year, 788 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,840 Speaker 3: so their offense line is a mess. They've had receivers hurt. 789 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 3: So yeah, but yeah, we could have had a couple 790 00:43:55,360 --> 00:44:00,240 Speaker 3: other ones easily last weekend. But transition to the NFL 791 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 3: Week two. It's one of my favorites every year, and 792 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 3: you know it's sober reaction week, and but you now 793 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,760 Speaker 3: that you have to you have to balance. You can't 794 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,919 Speaker 3: just say, oh, all the teams that looked bad, I'm 795 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 3: just gonna bet them, and then all the teams that 796 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,400 Speaker 3: looked really good, I'm going to fade them. You have 797 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,240 Speaker 3: to balance, and this is true in every sport, especially 798 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 3: when you're setting power ratings and like setting your own numbers. 799 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 3: You have to balance. Okay, what am I going to 800 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 3: overreact to? Because you want to you want to be 801 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 3: reactive in certain cases. And then what am I not 802 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 3: because the sample size is so small? So what are 803 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 3: some extenuating curcumstances? Was it a bad matchup or their injuries? 804 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 3: You know, I was there a lot of a lot 805 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 3: of turnover on the roster, where like, okay, it makes 806 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 3: sense that maybe the quarterback didn't play in the preseason, 807 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 3: so there was rushed and there was a lot of 808 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 3: moving pieces and a new staff so maybe, hey, let 809 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,879 Speaker 3: me not overreact too much here. So but and then 810 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 3: it comes down to the number. But big picture, you know, 811 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 3: if you look historically underdogs in Week two like fifty 812 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 3: five fifty six percent, it's the best dog week of 813 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,839 Speaker 3: any week. If you bet dogs that lost in Week one, 814 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:11,520 Speaker 3: you're looking fifty seven to fifty eight percent, home dogs 815 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 3: that lost like sixty percent. Those are big numbers in 816 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 3: the NFL. So yeah, I look for I like to 817 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:27,840 Speaker 3: look for underdogs that might be undervalued for various reasons. 818 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:31,799 Speaker 3: A perfect example of one where I did overreact, but 819 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 3: not as much as the market did, because I played 820 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 3: the Panthers last weekend. Probably the worst bet that I'll 821 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:46,240 Speaker 3: ever make in the NFL. Yeah, well, and but the NFL, 822 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:51,399 Speaker 3: it's in college football, college basketball. There's every weekend, every day, 823 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 3: like every Saturday. I can turn on a game with him. 824 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:56,919 Speaker 3: In ten minutes, I'm like, oh, I have the wrong 825 00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,239 Speaker 3: I have the wrong side here. That really happens in 826 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 3: the NFL with the Voinds spreader, Like it's you know 827 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 3: you're gonna be a back and forth game, it's a turnover, 828 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 3: it's a play here, play there. You rarely are like, 829 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,279 Speaker 3: oh my god, I have the wrong side. I mean 830 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 3: Bryce Young's first pass was picked off. So and they 831 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,800 Speaker 3: look the Panthers looked torendous. They couldn't get any pressure 832 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 3: with the Saints offensive line, so Car tore them apart. 833 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,800 Speaker 3: I think they only had two pressures, and the Saints 834 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 3: offense line look good. I think they'll just might have 835 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 3: been a product of the Panthers. We'll see. Big big 836 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,280 Speaker 3: thing that I'm watching for this week is the Saints 837 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,040 Speaker 3: offensive line against the Cowboys. The Cowboys team that can 838 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,240 Speaker 3: get pressure from all over, it's a much better defense. 839 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 3: Because if that Saints offensive line looks good in Dallas, 840 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 3: we have to start taking them much more serious because 841 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 3: their offense, like we talked about last week, I think 842 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:48,839 Speaker 3: thirty percent more play action, forty percent more pre stat motion, 843 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 3: you have that Shanahan influence. Now it's a much more 844 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 3: serious offensive coordinator. Good things, good modern things for that offense. 845 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 3: And you know Car's whole career numbers fall off when 846 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:03,359 Speaker 3: he's under pressure, but he's great when he's kept clean. 847 00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 3: So if that offensive line, you know, and they have 848 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:09,879 Speaker 3: weapons with that new modern offense and more preset motion, 849 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,799 Speaker 3: more plaction, very encouraging signs for the Saints. But the 850 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 3: Panthers were so bad. They did nothing well, there's nothing 851 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 3: that the offensive line did play a little better, but 852 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 3: Young just looked so lost and there was no progression. 853 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 3: There was none of the things I thought from the 854 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:31,160 Speaker 3: offensive staff too with canals. So but I'm gonna bet 855 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:35,320 Speaker 3: them this week. I'm hoping to get a seven. The reason, well, first, 856 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,719 Speaker 3: almost always in the NFL, the biggest overreaction spot and 857 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 3: this isn't just unique to Week two. Whenever our team 858 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 3: loses by more than thirty five points in the NFL, yeah, 859 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,279 Speaker 3: sixty three percent historically talking about it, sample size about 860 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty games, covering by about a field 861 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,880 Speaker 3: goal per game on average, underdogs sixty thirty and five 862 00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 3: against the spread. Underdogs of more than four coming off 863 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 3: of a loss of thirty five or more points forty eight, 864 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:10,400 Speaker 3: eighteen and two seventy three percent over the past thirty years. 865 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 3: So what why am I saying those stats? Well, it's 866 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 3: for a number of reasons. One in this you're seeing 867 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 3: this play out now. When a team loses by more 868 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:23,239 Speaker 3: than thirty five in the NFL, it's not too common. One, 869 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:24,799 Speaker 3: No one wants to bet that team the next week. 870 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 3: They just looked so bad. Who wants to put their 871 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 3: money on that team that just lost. So the market 872 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 3: is going to react pretty aggressively, and you're not. You 873 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:34,440 Speaker 3: might not have a lot of buyback. 874 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:36,879 Speaker 1: On the other side, what doesn't happen very often until 875 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:38,879 Speaker 1: it is pretty jarring to see a number that big. 876 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 3: Yes, but on the on the flip side, these are 877 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 3: still professional athletes. Like as bad as the Panthers are 878 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 3: are the probably going to get that team's Yeah, they 879 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 3: might be right to ask that, but you're probably gonna 880 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 3: get their best effort right after getting embarrassed like that, 881 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 3: They're probably going to have a fully focused, motivated especially 882 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:00,800 Speaker 3: early on in the season practice. And then it also 883 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:06,319 Speaker 3: encourages change. So the Panthers will say, whoever, the team 884 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 3: might be all right, look we got we lost by forty. Well, 885 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 3: nothing that we did worked. Let's do this right. So 886 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:15,440 Speaker 3: it introduces some uniqueness to the game plan that the 887 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 3: other team might not be prepared for. You might, you know, 888 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,279 Speaker 3: change some things up that didn't work, so you're more 889 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 3: likely to have success. So I downgraded the Panthers significantly. 890 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 3: I thought they were going to improve this year. I 891 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:27,240 Speaker 3: didn't really see it. They lost their best defensive lineman, 892 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:30,880 Speaker 3: Derek Brown, with the season. That's a big loss. Couldn't 893 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 3: get any pressure. So but it's you know, a new 894 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 3: offensive staff and I look, the look ahead line for 895 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:40,560 Speaker 3: this game was around a pick and now you're talking 896 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,359 Speaker 3: six to seven. That's a massive man, I can get 897 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,839 Speaker 3: to like four because the charters didn't really look great. 898 00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 3: They the first half, they had drives of five yards 899 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 3: and five yards. They got a bunch of turnovers from 900 00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 3: I mean, Minshaw at one point just dropped the ball, 901 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:58,719 Speaker 3: and you know, Antonio Pierce was making some crazy fourth 902 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 3: down decisions. The only they had a couple of Dobbins 903 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,040 Speaker 3: broken off runs Like that's basically what the offense said. 904 00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 3: They don't have great receivers. It's a team that wants 905 00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:09,120 Speaker 3: to like run the ball, grind the game down. For 906 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 3: the reason this total is thirty nine. So you're looking 907 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:14,840 Speaker 3: at a home dog and you're a touchdown. I just 908 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:19,359 Speaker 3: I just can't get to this number. What what x'es 909 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 3: and o's can I get you? 910 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:20,480 Speaker 1: I don't. 911 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 3: I don't know what can I What can I tell 912 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 3: you that it's great about the Panthers? I after last week, 913 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 3: I can't. But I just can't get to this number, 914 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:28,600 Speaker 3: especially if it gets the seven. So I'm hoping, like 915 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,839 Speaker 3: there's just apparently non stop Chargers money and I don't 916 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 3: I don't think about your average better. Who wants to 917 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 3: bet the Panthers after what they saw last week? 918 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 1: Nobody. It's one of it's one of the best parts 919 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:39,719 Speaker 1: about gambling. Sometimes you're just like, I just got I 920 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,160 Speaker 1: just this is what I'm playing. I mean, the stats 921 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: aren't on my side, but especially early on in the season. Well, 922 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,719 Speaker 1: let let's you brought up the Saints and all these 923 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:51,279 Speaker 1: lines presented by DraftKings. Obviously they can change over the 924 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 1: next couple of days, but they were a team you 925 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:55,800 Speaker 1: and I talked about kind of in the season preview. 926 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 1: I loved them. I just the value to win the 927 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 1: division at one, you get him to make the playoffs. 928 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 1: I think it was like plus one seventy and clearly 929 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,080 Speaker 1: the Panthers are probably a three or four win team 930 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,239 Speaker 1: at best, but doesn't mean they can't cover spreads over 931 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 1: the year. But the Saints fucking destroyed them. And the 932 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 1: reason I like them one, I think their defense is 933 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 1: good and it's gonna be solid. Like you have valid 934 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 1: question marks when when Derek gets rattled, he's not exactly 935 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,760 Speaker 1: like Andrew Luck sitting in the pocket taking shots, delivering strikes. 936 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:31,840 Speaker 1: But this offense is very quarterback friendly. So you hire Kubiak, 937 00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 1: who I continue to say, might as well they that 938 00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: family and now his sons are all you know in 939 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 1: the NFL. Once for Kyle and now wants the offensive coordinator. 940 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 1: They might as well just be renamed the Shanahans because 941 00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:47,920 Speaker 1: Gary played for Mike, Kyle worked for Gary. They're all 942 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:51,799 Speaker 1: the same. They run the same philosophically, the offense that, 943 00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:56,080 Speaker 1: like mcveigh's offense, has changed, right, the Kubiaks is Kyle, 944 00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 1: because Kyle is the Kubiaks. They're all in one and 945 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,560 Speaker 1: this is very quarter back friendly and Derek looked really good. 946 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 1: The other thing is in that offense, you got to 947 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,239 Speaker 1: run the ball, as we saw what with Kyle over 948 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:08,319 Speaker 1: the last five years. That's how you get successful, and 949 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,279 Speaker 1: it was made him successful as an offensive coordinator. No 950 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,480 Speaker 1: team has more invested into the running back room than 951 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:17,719 Speaker 1: the Saints. I like him. So now maybe over the 952 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 1: course of the season, I'll be proven wrong. But right now, like, 953 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 1: I feel pretty good and I'm getting six points, like 954 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,400 Speaker 1: that's that's a lot. Now. Dallas look good too. I 955 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 1: mean they both kicked ass and obviously Dallas a very 956 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:32,360 Speaker 1: very public team. But I'm a hammering the six because 957 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,520 Speaker 1: just I liked him to begin with. They look good. 958 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:36,760 Speaker 1: Dallas good too. What if these are just two playoff teams, 959 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:38,560 Speaker 1: which I thought, I mean, I thought Dallas was gonna 960 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 1: be good, so I wasn't shocked to see Dallas. My 961 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:44,400 Speaker 1: problem last week is I I didn't bet individual. I 962 00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 1: had a lot of parlays, Like I liked Tampa against Washington. 963 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:50,120 Speaker 1: I think Washington stinks. I like New Orleans against Carolina. 964 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:53,000 Speaker 1: I think Carolina stinks. I took Dallas money line put 965 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:56,320 Speaker 1: the Jags and Doug Peterson just I mean, what a disaster. 966 00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 1: But sit on my couch with my feet up, thinking 967 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 1: like today's gonna be a good day. But the Saints 968 00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:07,959 Speaker 1: were a good day, and I I just like that number. 969 00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 1: Obviously there's gonna be a lot of hype in this game, 970 00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 1: there always is Dallas's home opener. But I think that's 971 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,040 Speaker 1: a lot of points for a team that I think 972 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:17,799 Speaker 1: when the dust Hittles could be a double digit win 973 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 1: team and be a division champ. So to me, that's 974 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:23,200 Speaker 1: that's value. And I'm hammering the Saints there. 975 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 3: I would, uh, I would wait to see if you 976 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:28,800 Speaker 3: can get a seven, which you might be able to 977 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 3: six and a half in some places now. 978 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 1: But it's it's cut down like it was six and 979 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 1: a half yesterday. I checked this morning on DraftKings it 980 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,800 Speaker 1: was six. So I wonder if that that half point. 981 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:38,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, You're right, I. 982 00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 3: Would I would watch it. Yeah, you might get a 983 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:47,879 Speaker 3: seven is because you have Latimore and Honey Badger didn't 984 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:51,239 Speaker 3: practice and they're they're banged up. They would be big 985 00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 3: losses losing a starting safety and and your best. 986 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:58,280 Speaker 1: Corn Altimore would probably chase around CD. I would imagine 987 00:53:58,360 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: it was fully healthy. 988 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:02,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know Saints play a lot of man 989 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 3: which you know Dak and Ceedee lamb rip apart historically. 990 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 3: And if you don't, you don't have your you don't 991 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:11,359 Speaker 3: have Latimore, you don't have Matthew. I mean that could 992 00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 3: be problematic the offensive line and also dealing with a 993 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:17,479 Speaker 3: couple of injuries that already had questions. I'm probably staying 994 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 3: away from this game. I want to see this offensive 995 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:23,480 Speaker 3: line against the Dallas d the like Dallas in this 996 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 3: role has still you know under Daks, who's been unbelievable 997 00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 3: as a favorite. I mean, he's just been it didn't 998 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,359 Speaker 3: been dying. I could pull up the numbers here and 999 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 3: the reason for that is, I mean, yeah, he's He's 1000 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 3: fifty and thirty six against the spread as a favorite, 1001 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:45,440 Speaker 3: twenty seven and thirteen since twenty twenty one. That's the 1002 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:47,840 Speaker 3: best mark in the NFL, only behind Jared Goff. The 1003 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 3: lines just somehow cover every week. But the reason for that, 1004 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 3: it's not just Dak. It's that what the Cowboys against 1005 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,400 Speaker 3: teams that are inferior to them. You know, their offense 1006 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 3: is clicking, and then that's when they're deep can tee 1007 00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 3: off right. They get a lead. They're really good front runners. 1008 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:06,320 Speaker 3: They get a lead, and then they're that aggressive defense 1009 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,239 Speaker 3: says okay, we know you have to pass now, and 1010 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 3: then their team off causing turnovers, getting sacks, and then 1011 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:14,879 Speaker 3: it's kind of just a snowball effect, which is why 1012 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 3: the Cowboys in recent seasons have been so But. 1013 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 1: They look like the forty nine ers when they have 1014 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:19,880 Speaker 1: a lead, they just smother you. The difference is the 1015 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:22,879 Speaker 1: Niners can come back. They usually kind of fold yeap. 1016 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:26,120 Speaker 3: So the Saints in that scenario, you know you have 1017 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:31,120 Speaker 3: some secondary injuries. You know, Dennis Allen is too high, 1018 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,279 Speaker 3: a lot of cover one man, you don't have your 1019 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 3: secondary pieces. Cowboys get out to a lead in that 1020 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,799 Speaker 3: offensive line, which has questions, you're not going up against 1021 00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:43,399 Speaker 3: the Panthers front, and then cars under pressure and then 1022 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 3: it kind of just snowballs from there. So that's what 1023 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:48,839 Speaker 3: I would be concerned about. I'm probably staying away from 1024 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,359 Speaker 3: this game, but I'm going to be watching closely because 1025 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 3: I really want to see, especially if they're all healthy. 1026 00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 3: I think the blog of their rookie left tackle, I 1027 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,879 Speaker 3: think he's dealing with an injury. So is their their 1028 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:05,000 Speaker 3: guard Patrick, who I don't think is any good. But 1029 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:09,319 Speaker 3: you know, especially if like Henning and this rookie and 1030 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 3: this offensive line doesn't have to look great because you're 1031 00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 3: probably not gonna look great against the Cowboys, but if 1032 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,839 Speaker 3: they could just hold their own, it would be a 1033 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:23,320 Speaker 3: very good sign for the Saints, and I'll definitely take notice, 1034 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,960 Speaker 3: So I'm probably watching. I would watch that line though, 1035 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,120 Speaker 3: in like the injury news and see if the Cowboys 1036 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,160 Speaker 3: will probably be a public side, see if you can 1037 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 3: maybe get a seven in that case. I think that 1038 00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 3: that's where I would go as well. 1039 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 1: Okay, Packers Colts. Obviously, the Packers have a pretty devastating injury. 1040 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,240 Speaker 1: Luckily it's not out for the season. They lose a quarterback. 1041 00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 1: They have invested in quarterbacks over the last couple of years, 1042 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:50,719 Speaker 1: and they cut them both after the preseason, right Penn 1043 00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 1: State kid and the two Lang guy, and they trade 1044 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,160 Speaker 1: for Malik Willis, and I'm gonna use an analogy here. 1045 00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:58,800 Speaker 1: I'm not a day trader. I love the stock market, 1046 00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 1: but I've made a big day trades in my life 1047 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 1: trying to get like a get rich day and I've 1048 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,279 Speaker 1: been hitting the teeth both times. And it was on Snapchat. 1049 00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 1: And that's classic, like kind of a public just a 1050 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 1: lot of buzz about that company and it it always underperforms, 1051 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 1: and whoever shorted that company over the years, on the 1052 00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:22,520 Speaker 1: day that the earnings come out always makes a ton. 1053 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 1: And I have the logic when you have when you 1054 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 1: start a backup quarterback who I think sucks and Snapchat 1055 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:31,440 Speaker 1: clearly just sucks. They never make any money and the 1056 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 1: stock always goes down on earnings. And Malik Willis, I'm 1057 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,400 Speaker 1: pro guys like Malik Willis in the draft, like I 1058 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:42,160 Speaker 1: like physical attributes, and you get the right coach, maybe 1059 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 1: you make them into something. But the majority of those 1060 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 1: type players don't work right. That's why they're called like projects. 1061 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 1: And he obviously he had to play a couple of games, 1062 00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:55,520 Speaker 1: I think three games when he was rookie, and he 1063 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 1: was atrocious. And remember Vrabel, I know you know this, 1064 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 1: but people listening like begs him for Dobbs who they 1065 00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:07,160 Speaker 1: got off the street and they were immediately better. Obviously 1066 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:08,960 Speaker 1: Dobbs a better quarterback, but at the time it was 1067 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 1: kind of crazy because they had just drafted this guy 1068 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 1: and he was just bad. Then he hasn't really played 1069 00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years, and then they trade 1070 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 1: for this guy like two weeks ago. I saw headline today, 1071 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 1: it's like he's going into overdrive to try to learn 1072 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,600 Speaker 1: this offense. So my logic is simply like, I think 1073 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 1: he has a chance to just he's not an NFL player. Now, 1074 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 1: maybe I'm proven wrong over the next couple of weeks, 1075 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,920 Speaker 1: but also I think it's fair to say if Malik 1076 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 1: Willis is just the Malik Willis that we saw in 1077 00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:35,440 Speaker 1: Tennessee and like you can't function, and they get their 1078 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:37,800 Speaker 1: ask like he won't play next week, like they'll just 1079 00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:40,320 Speaker 1: have to go sign another quarterback or bring those guys back. 1080 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 1: And I'm just betting on him being not able to function. 1081 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:47,840 Speaker 1: And it's not like this team is the Ravens or 1082 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:50,680 Speaker 1: the Chiefs or the Niners where it's like, well, hey, 1083 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:53,919 Speaker 1: this week, we just our defense has to dominate, because 1084 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I thought their defense would be better with Halflee, 1085 00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 1: and I get it. They're playing the Eagles with one 1086 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 1: hundred fifty million dollars invested into skill guys, but they 1087 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,760 Speaker 1: look just like the Packers of old, which is a 1088 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,520 Speaker 1: defense that you can't really trust. Now, this game's in Lambeau, 1089 00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:12,720 Speaker 1: I just under no circumstances, and I get Indy has 1090 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 1: question marks. Anthony Richardson, I mean, really, it's just too 1091 00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:19,000 Speaker 1: big place. Like it's not like he was nineteen. Yeah, 1092 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers back there twenty four, twenty eight or something, 1093 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,280 Speaker 1: but he is an explosive player came out of the 1094 00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,040 Speaker 1: game healthy. Defense for them is a question mark. But 1095 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,240 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about Malik Willis, so I get this game. 1096 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,600 Speaker 1: I mean, this line would not have looked like this 1097 00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 1: two weeks ago if Jordan Love was in there. I 1098 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 1: am just one hundred percent shorting Malik Willis, Like there's 1099 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 1: a chance Sunday ends were like, that's the worst player 1100 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 1: in the NFL. It's not. I mean, he seems like 1101 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,480 Speaker 1: a nice guy, but I mean he just might not 1102 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 1: be an NFL player. I actually think it's kind of crazy. 1103 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 1: Hear me out. Is it nuts that the Packers traded 1104 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 1: for him and then just immediately made him their backup quarterback, Like, 1105 00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 1: I think that's a pretty bold move. 1106 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:04,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I it's yeah, I mean I guess that. Do 1107 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 3: you think that just hey, I mean, I'll okay, I'll 1108 01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 3: give you the upside of having him as your backup 1109 01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:11,240 Speaker 3: right now, because yeah, all the data that we have, 1110 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 3: it's the small sample sizes that he's awful, and I 1111 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,640 Speaker 3: do think that he's awful. So, but I will say historically, 1112 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,200 Speaker 3: if you bet backup quarterbacks underdogs in the first their 1113 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 3: first start, you're around like fifty seven percent against the spread. 1114 01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:28,160 Speaker 3: Market usually overreacts to the drop off, and there's also 1115 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,960 Speaker 3: like that star effect that you see in the NBA. 1116 01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 3: For one game, it's not really sustainable, but everyone else 1117 01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 3: kind of steps up, elevates their play, you know, and 1118 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 3: the coaches put in like the new wrinkles, and everyone 1119 01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:44,240 Speaker 3: kind of just elevates for that one game. But this 1120 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:46,360 Speaker 3: is just too much, so that I had this line 1121 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 3: of about minus six. Packers was like a six point 1122 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 3: favorite at home against the Colts. If Jordan loves play play, Yeah, 1123 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:59,720 Speaker 3: if everyone was healthy and the look head line I'm 1124 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 3: lower on the Colts in the market look at him 1125 01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 3: was like four and a half. 1126 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:04,480 Speaker 1: So let's call it five, Like, do you do you 1127 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:06,440 Speaker 1: v the Colts as a playoff team the way you're 1128 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:07,840 Speaker 1: not gonna have taken I don't know. 1129 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 3: So their their defense is bad, which I'll get to 1130 01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:15,120 Speaker 3: in a sec. But the the and Richardson still isn't 1131 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:18,840 Speaker 3: there as a passer, I don't think. But so let's 1132 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 3: let's call the line five. But look at five. Well, 1133 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:24,720 Speaker 3: now we're at plus three. That's an eight point move 1134 01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:31,800 Speaker 3: across key number of three and four. Eight point difference. 1135 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:42,560 Speaker 3: That's like Andrew Luck to Scott tolzeneh. That's like uh, 1136 01:01:43,000 --> 01:01:46,560 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers to Tim Boyle, who was I don't And 1137 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:48,680 Speaker 3: the Packers always have these days, they have Hall of 1138 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 3: Fame backups or the worst backups in the NFL. Tim 1139 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:54,400 Speaker 3: Boyle was the guy who played at Yukon one season. 1140 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,240 Speaker 3: He had one touchdown in thirteen interceptions, and he was 1141 01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:58,880 Speaker 3: the backup to Aaron. 1142 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:02,920 Speaker 1: Rodgers no touchdown passes in the National Football League three picks. 1143 01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:03,320 Speaker 1: I get it. 1144 01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 3: At least he's playing. He's better than Tim Boyle, He's 1145 01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:09,680 Speaker 3: better than Scott Tolzy. At least he's played. It's not eight. 1146 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:14,680 Speaker 3: And look and Jordan Love isn't Aaron Rodgers MVP. You 1147 01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 3: know Andrew Luck, Patrick Mahomes, he's not the elite e leityer. 1148 01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 3: The biggest drop you'll ever see from an elite, elite, 1149 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,919 Speaker 3: elite quarterback the best. And then it depends how bad 1150 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:29,760 Speaker 3: your backup is is you know, seven eight points. But 1151 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,600 Speaker 3: Jordan Love isn't there yet. I mean, we still have 1152 01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 3: the greatest ample sizes, only get a hell of it. 1153 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:36,320 Speaker 3: I think he's a top ten quarterback, but it's not 1154 01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:38,200 Speaker 3: like he's we know that he's We're not saying he's 1155 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:41,360 Speaker 3: Mahomes yet. So and Malik Willis, I don't think is 1156 01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:43,640 Speaker 3: the worst backup of all time. So I only think 1157 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:45,880 Speaker 3: it's like a six point drop off, so I can't 1158 01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:49,440 Speaker 3: get to plus three. I'll also this Colt. If you 1159 01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 3: want to put a backup in any situation, it's this one. 1160 01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:54,800 Speaker 3: You have a little couple extra days to prepare. He's 1161 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:59,200 Speaker 3: prepared for the Colts defense twice a year since he's 1162 01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:02,000 Speaker 3: been in the league, because he in Tennessee and they 1163 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 3: played each other twice yere in division games. And the 1164 01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:07,720 Speaker 3: Colts defense is so basic, so easy, so static, so outdated. 1165 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 3: Under Gus Bradley, what they do every year is They 1166 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:11,720 Speaker 3: run a ton of Cover three, some Cover two and 1167 01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:14,600 Speaker 3: they don't blitz. That's it. And what do they do 1168 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:17,160 Speaker 3: last week? Cover three, Cover two eighty eighty five percent 1169 01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 3: of the time, no blitzing. So it's not a complex defense. 1170 01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 3: They also lost their top corner in Juju Brents to 1171 01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 3: an injury last week. DeForest Buckner quitd he pay they're 1172 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:29,960 Speaker 3: starting safety. They all might not play. The defensive line 1173 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:31,880 Speaker 3: is supposed to be the strength. This secondary is bad 1174 01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:33,960 Speaker 3: and now dop down. It's top corner. You have a 1175 01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:36,120 Speaker 3: ton of weapons, you know, you have a running back, 1176 01:03:36,120 --> 01:03:38,800 Speaker 3: a good offensive line. It's a much better offensive situation 1177 01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:41,680 Speaker 3: that Willis is in than he was in when he 1178 01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 3: was in Tennessee, So you know, you good coach. I 1179 01:03:45,960 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 3: think they'll come up with a good game plan here. 1180 01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 3: And it's just it's a defense that he's at least 1181 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:51,160 Speaker 3: familiar with, and it's a bad defense. It's a defense. 1182 01:03:51,200 --> 01:03:55,040 Speaker 3: It's not gonna blitz you, it's not gonna it's it's 1183 01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 3: pretty simple what he has to do here. 1184 01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:00,320 Speaker 1: And they missed the playoffs. Gus Bradley is getting fired 1185 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:01,160 Speaker 1: written all over him. 1186 01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:03,680 Speaker 3: I don't know how he's not He wasn't Gus Bradley, 1187 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:06,200 Speaker 3: you can run is you can still run some of 1188 01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:10,040 Speaker 3: his concepts. I mean everyone from that that peak Carroll Tree, 1189 01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:14,400 Speaker 3: which trickled down into like the Sala, They're they've all 1190 01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:20,600 Speaker 3: evolved and you know, even dan Quinn has gone completely different. 1191 01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:23,000 Speaker 3: They've all evolved. They run, the Jets run a ton 1192 01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 3: of quarters and Bradley is still the same defense that 1193 01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:29,080 Speaker 3: the league already has all their Cover three beaters. You 1194 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:31,720 Speaker 3: can still run it it. Cover three is the biggest 1195 01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 3: base defense. I mean everyone runs everything, but the way 1196 01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:37,880 Speaker 3: that that the Colts run it is very static, outdated 1197 01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:41,440 Speaker 3: Cover three. But you need elite, elite defenders like the 1198 01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:45,000 Speaker 3: What made that work for Seattle is you had guys 1199 01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 3: like Earl Thomas and Richard Sherman and uh Camp Champs. 1200 01:04:50,080 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 3: You need elite defenders in space to make play elite. Yeah, 1201 01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:56,960 Speaker 3: the court, and you know the Colts don't have the 1202 01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 3: dont not only of elite defensive backfield, they have one 1203 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 3: of the worst in the NFL. I don't know why 1204 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:04,200 Speaker 3: Chris Bauer didn't address it, and I don't know why 1205 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 3: there they keep sticking with Bradley, But yeah, I just 1206 01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:10,160 Speaker 3: this is too much of a no reaction to me, 1207 01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 3: and you could be right, and Wills could just be 1208 01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:14,560 Speaker 3: a disaster and the Colts spun by fourteen twenty one, 1209 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 3: and I'd like, okay. There's a lot of variants with 1210 01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:18,760 Speaker 3: Richardson two with like kid, does he hit a couple 1211 01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:21,160 Speaker 3: of deep shots? Does he make a couple of mistakes? 1212 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:24,800 Speaker 3: But I just can't get the plus three at home, 1213 01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:28,200 Speaker 3: Like it's like a five to six point drop to me. 1214 01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:33,160 Speaker 3: There's also like a one percent chance that Love plays. 1215 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:36,959 Speaker 3: So and if he's back there, even if he can't move, 1216 01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 3: you know, him just thrown around would obviously be a 1217 01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:42,800 Speaker 3: lot better than willis back there. Laflour left the door, 1218 01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,200 Speaker 3: left that opportunity. I don't think he's going to play, 1219 01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:48,880 Speaker 3: but he said there's a there's a chance that he 1220 01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:53,240 Speaker 3: might play. I just think they're playing games. So the 1221 01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:55,040 Speaker 3: Colts have to prepare for him too. But there is 1222 01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:58,720 Speaker 3: at least the chance of that. But this is this 1223 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:01,680 Speaker 3: is the situation you want in the play defense is 1224 01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:04,760 Speaker 3: similar with a bad defense doesn't blitz at home a couplex, 1225 01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:08,200 Speaker 3: stays prepare. He's already familiar with it, and you have 1226 01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:10,800 Speaker 3: good weapons, good offensive line, good coach around you, expect 1227 01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,120 Speaker 3: the Packers d to be better and the Colts are 1228 01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 3: dealing with a lot more injuries on defense that across 1229 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:20,120 Speaker 3: the defensive line lost top corner and safety. So I 1230 01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 3: took the three, but I can't blame you or anyone 1231 01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:24,400 Speaker 3: else for winning the FADAN. 1232 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 1: The league willis Okay. This is my favorite I think 1233 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:31,040 Speaker 1: bet of the weekend, and it's the NFC East Toilet Bowl. 1234 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 1: I got it. This is some stucky logic here. Giants 1235 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,080 Speaker 1: plus two. I look this morning, I think it was 1236 01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:38,600 Speaker 1: two and a half. Some people have been kind of 1237 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:41,480 Speaker 1: there's been some money coming in on the Giants. This 1238 01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:44,800 Speaker 1: goes to my Panthers and just my logic coming into 1239 01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:47,080 Speaker 1: the season, I think Washington's going to be drafting in 1240 01:06:47,120 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 1: the top five. Now. I don't think the Giants are 1241 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:51,760 Speaker 1: good either, but they're gonna have their moments they did 1242 01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:55,120 Speaker 1: last season. Like I've seen day ball over the course 1243 01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:57,920 Speaker 1: of a season, like they will just have some upsets. 1244 01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 1: Like to me, they're more likely to win six than 1245 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:02,680 Speaker 1: they are two or three. And I don't think it's 1246 01:07:02,680 --> 01:07:06,760 Speaker 1: inconceivable that Washington just doesn't win many games at all. 1247 01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:10,320 Speaker 1: And that's not like an indictment on Dan Quinn or 1248 01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:15,680 Speaker 1: Adam Peters. Their roster stinks, and last week against the Giants, 1249 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:19,960 Speaker 1: you know, Sam Donald might just turn out to be solid. 1250 01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:21,400 Speaker 1: Maybe not what we thought he was going to be 1251 01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:23,520 Speaker 1: the number three overall pick, but like he's kind of 1252 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:25,480 Speaker 1: resurrected his career. I think it's safe to say he's 1253 01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:27,160 Speaker 1: gonna be in the league for a while as a starter, 1254 01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 1: as a backup. I mean, time will tell this season, 1255 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:31,760 Speaker 1: but like he's got a positive moment. They also have 1256 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:34,720 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson who's like a two hundred million dollar wide receiver. 1257 01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 1: And to me, I watched Washington last week, that was 1258 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:40,640 Speaker 1: one of my favorite bets Tampa to kill him one. 1259 01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:42,960 Speaker 1: I just didn't think like they could score. Obviously, Baker 1260 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:46,600 Speaker 1: and Mike Evans and Godwin went nuts, but like, I 1261 01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 1: just think that this is a spot now they've invest 1262 01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 1: a lot in their defensive line that I wonder if 1263 01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:53,919 Speaker 1: it's going to be a little bit harder for him 1264 01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:56,040 Speaker 1: just to kind of run wild on him now he's 1265 01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 1: he is a fast runner. But like as a passer 1266 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:01,880 Speaker 1: saw last week, their passing game, I just don't think 1267 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna be good. This is crazy, but I don't 1268 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:08,800 Speaker 1: know if if it was flipped and Washington was getting 1269 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 1: two points, I'd probably stay away. But I'm hammering the 1270 01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:16,559 Speaker 1: Giants get getting points right. Divisional games, you talk a 1271 01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:20,160 Speaker 1: lot about these divisional underdog whether they're good teams, are 1272 01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:23,960 Speaker 1: bad teams, these are classic spots, and my main logic is, 1273 01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,200 Speaker 1: I just don't think Washington's good. I just think they're 1274 01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:28,800 Speaker 1: gonna have a long fucking season. Now. They got more 1275 01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:32,000 Speaker 1: going for them than the Panthers, because, like, I would 1276 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:35,759 Speaker 1: much rather have Jade Daniels than Ice Young sitting here today. 1277 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,320 Speaker 1: If I was a GM, if I was a fan, whatever, 1278 01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,200 Speaker 1: but I like the Giants in this spot. I like 1279 01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:42,320 Speaker 1: them to just win the game. 1280 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, who am I to I was 1281 01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:49,400 Speaker 3: gonna say, man, this is it's a horrible, but I 1282 01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 3: just gave my I just the two bets that I 1283 01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:53,080 Speaker 3: just said. I like to have Malik Willis and Bryce 1284 01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:55,759 Speaker 3: Young as the quarterback. So who am I to judge anyone? 1285 01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:59,920 Speaker 3: If I had to, if I had to take this, Yeah, 1286 01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:03,120 Speaker 3: take the Giants for what it's worth. Underdogs in Week 1287 01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:06,599 Speaker 3: two in a matchup of winless teams fifty to twenty 1288 01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 3: five and three against the spread since two thousand and 1289 01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:14,080 Speaker 3: three sixty seven percent. These two teams are so similar, 1290 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:18,760 Speaker 3: like bad offensive lines, horrible defenses, some town on the 1291 01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 3: defensive line. The Giants have a really good defensive line, 1292 01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:24,800 Speaker 3: you know, the commanders of pain and Allen in the interior, 1293 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:30,360 Speaker 3: questionable quarterbacks who have mobility, and you got a star 1294 01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:34,160 Speaker 3: receiver on both sides. These these two teams are so similar. 1295 01:09:34,640 --> 01:09:38,000 Speaker 3: So and Washington, it's a divisional game. Home field's already 1296 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:41,440 Speaker 3: not much and Washington has almost no home field anyway. 1297 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:46,280 Speaker 3: So yeah, if you're if you're going to take if 1298 01:09:46,280 --> 01:09:48,280 Speaker 3: you're gonna bet this game, and I would agree with you. 1299 01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:52,519 Speaker 3: Just you take the team catching points probably a true 1300 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:53,519 Speaker 3: coin flip in my opinion. 1301 01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:58,559 Speaker 1: One number that jumped out to me. My first indication was, like, god, 1302 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,559 Speaker 1: that's a lot of points to me, Tampa. One thing 1303 01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,160 Speaker 1: is when those two wide receivers are healthy, whether it's 1304 01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:07,880 Speaker 1: Tom or Baker, they're just as good of a one 1305 01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:10,240 Speaker 1: to two combination as there is in the league with 1306 01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:14,240 Speaker 1: Mike Evans and Godwin. So that team can score. And 1307 01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:18,439 Speaker 1: Baker obviously has changed the narrative on his career now 1308 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:22,280 Speaker 1: playing Washington and playing the Lions is a little different animal. 1309 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:25,080 Speaker 1: But that number over a touchdown. I looked this morning, 1310 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 1: seven and a half. I hadn't really thought much about it, 1311 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:30,960 Speaker 1: but I would have assumed that number would have been 1312 01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:34,160 Speaker 1: closer to five and a half six If it was 1313 01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:36,360 Speaker 1: going to be that high, I guess Tampa's getting no respect. 1314 01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:39,120 Speaker 1: You had mentioned they had some injuries right before we 1315 01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:42,120 Speaker 1: jumped on, but that number scene's pretty high to me 1316 01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:44,400 Speaker 1: after we just saw them go toe to toe in 1317 01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:48,559 Speaker 1: an NFC Divisional game in Tampa. I mean, what's the 1318 01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:51,040 Speaker 1: record the last year in a game? I mean, they 1319 01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:53,880 Speaker 1: they played pretty good, especially the last half of the season, 1320 01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:56,519 Speaker 1: and then like they look pretty solid. The other thing 1321 01:10:56,600 --> 01:11:00,240 Speaker 1: is Todd. You know at one point in time, guy, 1322 01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:02,880 Speaker 1: he's gonna survive long. He is a good defensive coach. 1323 01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:07,560 Speaker 1: Right and Detroit, I like, I'm not trying to overreact 1324 01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:10,559 Speaker 1: that they underperformed whatever. The Rams are good tough opponent. 1325 01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 1: Mcveaghl offseason Stafford was fucking lights out. But the one 1326 01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:18,719 Speaker 1: thing is when you go from like the little engine 1327 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:21,400 Speaker 1: that could, the team kind of like everyone's taken Detroit. 1328 01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:24,519 Speaker 1: I mean, I would imagine on a weekly basis, they're 1329 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,839 Speaker 1: getting approached in the meetings and practice and game plans 1330 01:11:28,400 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 1: no different than you would playing the Ravens Chiefs for 1331 01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:32,840 Speaker 1: forty nine ers right at this point. So it's like 1332 01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:37,439 Speaker 1: you're approaching them like a super Bowl level team. And 1333 01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:39,480 Speaker 1: that number just jumped out to me, stuffy. 1334 01:11:40,400 --> 01:11:44,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, seems a little high, but I you know, I'm 1335 01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:48,280 Speaker 3: close to a touchdown because I had to downgrade the 1336 01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:52,160 Speaker 3: Bucks a bit this week and adjust this projected spread 1337 01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:54,400 Speaker 3: because of their injuries in the secondary. A couple of 1338 01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:56,439 Speaker 3: their corners are hurt, and I have two or three 1339 01:11:56,439 --> 01:12:00,799 Speaker 3: guys they're dealing with injuries there. Anseline Winfield, their best player, 1340 01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:05,639 Speaker 3: all Pro caliber safety is out. That's huge. And going 1341 01:12:05,720 --> 01:12:08,360 Speaker 3: up against this Lion's offense, you know, you're the best 1342 01:12:08,560 --> 01:12:11,639 Speaker 3: offensive line in the NFL. I think last week GoF 1343 01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:14,559 Speaker 3: didn't play in the preseason. You know there was you 1344 01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:16,800 Speaker 3: always see with these quarterbacks in week one that didn't 1345 01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:19,000 Speaker 3: play in preseason, a dip in production. Usually see a 1346 01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 3: jump tick back off in week two. So I expect 1347 01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:24,200 Speaker 3: under Ben Johnson, I think called a pretty poor game 1348 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:28,120 Speaker 3: and they were all overtime. I expect them to be 1349 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:33,080 Speaker 3: back on here against Buck's secondary that has a ton 1350 01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:36,880 Speaker 3: of question marks and the Lions offensive line should be 1351 01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,120 Speaker 3: able to handle the blitz that you think Bowls is 1352 01:12:39,160 --> 01:12:42,200 Speaker 3: gonna Now maybe Bowles just says, look, I'm gonna sit back, 1353 01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:46,679 Speaker 3: and I'm gonna sit back more and you know, shells 1354 01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,160 Speaker 3: with my safeties, not blitz because I know I have injuries, 1355 01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 3: and I know the offensive line I'm going against in 1356 01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:53,320 Speaker 3: the weapons and I'm just going to not prevent the 1357 01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:56,759 Speaker 3: exposive play, try to capitalize on a mistake, get stops 1358 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:58,439 Speaker 3: in the red zone. That could be an approach there. 1359 01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:00,120 Speaker 1: Jamison Williams banged up. 1360 01:13:00,840 --> 01:13:03,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, which is worth noting. If he can break out 1361 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:06,840 Speaker 3: this year that offense, that's really what they're missing, is 1362 01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:09,439 Speaker 3: that that second wide receiver to take off. And he 1363 01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:11,519 Speaker 3: looked good last week. But that's what I would be 1364 01:13:11,520 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 3: worried about with the Bucks is just those secondary injuries 1365 01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:16,519 Speaker 3: against the lines. Offense, I expect to be much better. 1366 01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:19,599 Speaker 3: But over a touchdown, I don't mind a look at 1367 01:13:19,600 --> 01:13:20,160 Speaker 3: the Bucks. 1368 01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 1: I get you out of here on this, We'll go 1369 01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:24,600 Speaker 1: back to college. It's I think it might be one of, 1370 01:13:24,680 --> 01:13:27,479 Speaker 1: if not the only game with two ranked opponents. I 1371 01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:30,880 Speaker 1: was at the gym on Saturday morning and watching k State. 1372 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 1: Tulane was on one of the big TV's and I 1373 01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:35,439 Speaker 1: mean k State was in trouble and then I think 1374 01:13:35,479 --> 01:13:37,679 Speaker 1: they got like a fumble return. They kind of changed 1375 01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:41,640 Speaker 1: around the game Arizona. I read a good article on 1376 01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:47,280 Speaker 1: the I didn't realize Fafita and McMillan his last name. 1377 01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:50,600 Speaker 1: I think different wide receiver. Yeah, McMillan, tech McMillan. These 1378 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:54,959 Speaker 1: guys are like been playing together since high school. Obviously 1379 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:56,519 Speaker 1: they both could have made a lot of money and 1380 01:13:56,560 --> 01:13:58,960 Speaker 1: left to Washington, they decided to stay. I mean McMillan's 1381 01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:01,760 Speaker 1: going to be a top ten twelve pick depending off 1382 01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:04,679 Speaker 1: fast he runs. I mean he's a star. This game's 1383 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:10,519 Speaker 1: Friday night, Arizona's now it's in it's in Manhattan, Kansas. 1384 01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 3: Uh. 1385 01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 1: But this is a team that you know, some people 1386 01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:15,960 Speaker 1: thought if they could just be solid on defense, we 1387 01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:19,080 Speaker 1: know how good their offenses could compete to win this conference. 1388 01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:23,439 Speaker 1: And now that what's the quarterback who's played seventy five 1389 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:26,240 Speaker 1: years for Utah got thrown Did you see the play 1390 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:30,160 Speaker 1: where he got thrown into the bench and hurt his hand, So, like, 1391 01:14:30,479 --> 01:14:33,679 Speaker 1: you know, obviously Utah with him and without him become 1392 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:35,600 Speaker 1: a completely like they're a playoff team. And then it's like, 1393 01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:38,679 Speaker 1: what the hell am I watching? But to me, Arizona 1394 01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:40,680 Speaker 1: is a pretty big wild card. I know they look 1395 01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:43,439 Speaker 1: shitty against Northern Arizona, but that's kind of your classic 1396 01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:46,559 Speaker 1: Like they came out the gates swinging Week one, scored 1397 01:14:46,600 --> 01:14:50,400 Speaker 1: like one hundred points. A little letdown. This is a really, 1398 01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:53,559 Speaker 1: really big spot. I'm tempted to dabble a little bit 1399 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:55,439 Speaker 1: on the money line here. It's not like k State 1400 01:14:55,720 --> 01:15:00,240 Speaker 1: is fucking Alabama. Now you get I set get the 1401 01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:03,080 Speaker 1: plus seven. But this is this is a pretty intriguing 1402 01:15:03,120 --> 01:15:03,600 Speaker 1: game to me. 1403 01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:07,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it should be a fun one. Both offenses are 1404 01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:10,920 Speaker 3: pretty fun. I'm worried about but the Kansas State defense 1405 01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:14,200 Speaker 3: was very worrisome against Tulane. I mean, they were starting 1406 01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:16,400 Speaker 3: to him, was starting a young kid who they didn't 1407 01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 3: even know he's going to be the starter until like 1408 01:15:20,160 --> 01:15:22,760 Speaker 3: late in camp, and Neve was throwing all over and 1409 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:25,720 Speaker 3: there was coverage busts all over. That's definitely concerning when 1410 01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:28,240 Speaker 3: you're going up against McMillan, one of the best receivers 1411 01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:32,240 Speaker 3: in the country. But I'm really worried about the Arizona defense, 1412 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:35,720 Speaker 3: especially up front. So Kansas State's quarterback Avery Johnson still 1413 01:15:35,720 --> 01:15:37,920 Speaker 3: limited as a passer. The Electric Runner. They have a 1414 01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:41,960 Speaker 3: really good backfield with Giddinson company. The Arizona defensive front 1415 01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:42,599 Speaker 3: lost a lot. 1416 01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:43,840 Speaker 1: Look. 1417 01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:45,280 Speaker 3: I mean, you go back to the game against New 1418 01:15:45,320 --> 01:15:49,200 Speaker 3: Mexico and New Mexico was scoring, was scoring at will 1419 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,320 Speaker 3: with Devin Dampier, and they like a mobile quarterback. They 1420 01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:55,320 Speaker 3: were running on them. So I'm just afraid that Kansa 1421 01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:58,040 Speaker 3: State's gonna be able to run at will here because 1422 01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:01,600 Speaker 3: that Arizona defensive front does not look great. Lost a 1423 01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:03,960 Speaker 3: couple of key guys there, and then the offense is 1424 01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:06,439 Speaker 3: not as good as it was last year. Arizon was 1425 01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:09,600 Speaker 3: a team I was always betting number one. I love Jetfish, 1426 01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:14,080 Speaker 3: who they lost. I think he just designed such a 1427 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:16,960 Speaker 3: beautiful offense. He was putting forfeed in all just the 1428 01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:20,040 Speaker 3: best possible places on the field and giving him such 1429 01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:22,160 Speaker 3: easy throws. And Papete is good, don't get me wrong. 1430 01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:24,839 Speaker 3: But they also had a pro an NFL left tackle. 1431 01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:30,439 Speaker 3: Who's Jordan Morgan is on the Packers. Now, they had 1432 01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:35,240 Speaker 3: a really good second receiver in Cawing, so they don't 1433 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:38,000 Speaker 3: really have that now. It's all just like McMillan, like 1434 01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 3: in that New Mexico game. Yeah, they won. I think 1435 01:16:41,320 --> 01:16:43,880 Speaker 3: they were trailing at the half or it was almost 1436 01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:47,719 Speaker 3: tied at that He had three hundred and twenty yards. 1437 01:16:48,080 --> 01:16:50,320 Speaker 3: So the next week all the attention was on him, 1438 01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 3: and yeah, I think he only had like two catches 1439 01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:57,679 Speaker 3: for like fifteen yards, and Arizona's offense couldn't do anything. 1440 01:16:57,720 --> 01:17:00,720 Speaker 3: So I would assume that's Kansas State's game plan here 1441 01:17:01,479 --> 01:17:04,080 Speaker 3: can they execute it? I mean they couldn't. It's so 1442 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,479 Speaker 3: I'm worried about this Arizona team. The offensive line is worse, 1443 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,360 Speaker 3: the wide receiver room is worse. You just kind of 1444 01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 3: have to just take away McMillan. They're running back. Their 1445 01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:14,519 Speaker 3: backfield is worse too. They lost their starting running back 1446 01:17:14,600 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 3: was now starting at Washington. So I think the Candias 1447 01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:20,200 Speaker 3: State will be able to run. Like if you can 1448 01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:22,760 Speaker 3: stop the run against Kansas State, make Averray Johnson. He's 1449 01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:25,080 Speaker 3: still limited as a passer, that's how you beat him. 1450 01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:26,880 Speaker 3: I'm not sure they'll be able to do it, but yeah, 1451 01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:28,080 Speaker 3: if you want to take a shot in a Friday 1452 01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:32,479 Speaker 3: night on Arizona Money Island, McMillan goes off. I don't 1453 01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:35,000 Speaker 3: hate it, but I have concerns about both of these 1454 01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:35,719 Speaker 3: teams for sure. 1455 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,280 Speaker 1: That's some good nuggets because I guess you know, I 1456 01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:40,840 Speaker 1: saw a quote from their defensive coordinator last year, who's 1457 01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:44,240 Speaker 1: up with or one of the coaches, who's with Jed. 1458 01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:45,799 Speaker 1: He's like I thought, by the end of the season 1459 01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:48,519 Speaker 1: we were playing, we're like a top ten team in 1460 01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:50,720 Speaker 1: the country. And now when you think about it, the 1461 01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:54,519 Speaker 1: left tackle, who's on the backers and who's technically a 1462 01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:56,080 Speaker 1: third tackle, But I mean, he's going to be a 1463 01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:59,080 Speaker 1: starter in the future. Cowing is a starter for the Niner. 1464 01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:01,479 Speaker 1: He's a starting punt turner, and he's gonna as the 1465 01:18:01,479 --> 01:18:03,839 Speaker 1: season goes, play more on offense because of a speed 1466 01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:06,320 Speaker 1: and you lose your started running back like that with 1467 01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:09,400 Speaker 1: Fafita and McMillan, like that team was kind of stacked, right, 1468 01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:12,760 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, like they were really really good. 1469 01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:14,160 Speaker 3: I mean, and a really good running back. 1470 01:18:15,560 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean if Jed is a better offensive play 1471 01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:23,280 Speaker 1: caller than Brennan, who's an offensive guy too. But I 1472 01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:26,320 Speaker 1: just maybe it's a Homer pick, but I'm kind of 1473 01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:28,960 Speaker 1: I'd like to see. Aerzona's got a tough little stretch. 1474 01:18:28,960 --> 01:18:30,800 Speaker 1: They play k State and they play Utah next week. 1475 01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:32,400 Speaker 1: This is kind of their season, you know, if they 1476 01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:34,719 Speaker 1: want to compete for the Big twelve. Yeah. 1477 01:18:34,720 --> 01:18:38,559 Speaker 3: The other thing I'll quit mention. The only other player 1478 01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:40,080 Speaker 3: that I have was Titans plus three and a half 1479 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:42,920 Speaker 3: another a week two trend, which is a pretty crazy one. 1480 01:18:43,080 --> 01:18:46,519 Speaker 3: Teams that had the ball as little as the Jets 1481 01:18:46,560 --> 01:18:49,800 Speaker 3: did last week in week in week one, in week 1482 01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:54,439 Speaker 3: two there's six and twenty five against spread. That's nineteen 1483 01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:57,760 Speaker 3: percent over the past twenty years. When that, I mean, 1484 01:18:57,760 --> 01:18:59,720 Speaker 3: if you watch the Jets sports games, I know you did. 1485 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:03,360 Speaker 3: The defense is on the field the entire game. You're 1486 01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:05,840 Speaker 3: not all the way up into game shape yet. Fatigue 1487 01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:10,479 Speaker 3: really hits hardest in Week two and they're going Monday 1488 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:13,840 Speaker 3: night on the road to another road game on a 1489 01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:16,760 Speaker 3: short week. Teams in that spot historically don't do well. 1490 01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:19,160 Speaker 3: And that Jets defense just not the same. I mean, 1491 01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 3: Chanahan ripped them apart new the solid defense, but the 1492 01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:25,040 Speaker 3: defensive line is not the same. You don't have Huff, 1493 01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:28,840 Speaker 3: you don't have Franklin Meyer's reddicks holding out, and maybe 1494 01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:32,080 Speaker 3: the secondary regresses a little bit. They've been so good, 1495 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:35,040 Speaker 3: but the defensive line is not getting as much pressure. 1496 01:19:35,120 --> 01:19:37,439 Speaker 3: They're not getting they're able to be pushed around because 1497 01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:40,640 Speaker 3: they lost some key pieces there not as talented, So 1498 01:19:42,160 --> 01:19:45,120 Speaker 3: I think the Titans catching over a field goal really 1499 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:47,680 Speaker 3: good spot here. Historically, teams that blow big leads in 1500 01:19:47,720 --> 01:19:51,200 Speaker 3: week one also are good bets in week two. But 1501 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,680 Speaker 3: the Jets are They're still figuring out. The offensive line 1502 01:19:53,680 --> 01:19:55,599 Speaker 3: needs time to gel. Rogers needs to still work out 1503 01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:59,799 Speaker 3: the kinks. It's like a I know that white touchdowns, 1504 01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 3: but yeah, you're just throwing it to one guy. And 1505 01:20:02,360 --> 01:20:04,880 Speaker 3: I like the Titans additions they added at Ernest Jones, 1506 01:20:05,439 --> 01:20:07,680 Speaker 3: the sweat kid from Texas, look good up front with 1507 01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:12,000 Speaker 3: Simmons they have now they have two veteran solid corners. 1508 01:20:12,080 --> 01:20:14,559 Speaker 3: So I like what I saw last week from the defense. 1509 01:20:14,880 --> 01:20:17,439 Speaker 3: And yeah, you got to worry about just Hey, they're 1510 01:20:17,479 --> 01:20:20,760 Speaker 3: gonna throw it to Wilson on the left side. I mean, 1511 01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:24,240 Speaker 3: I saw a funny memes It showed the passing chart 1512 01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:26,760 Speaker 3: of Aaron Rodgers and then a picture next to it, 1513 01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:28,600 Speaker 3: and he had an eye patch on his on his 1514 01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:32,960 Speaker 3: right eye, So yeah, it's a it's a very limited off. 1515 01:20:32,960 --> 01:20:34,600 Speaker 3: It's Mike Williams isn't gonna give you much right now 1516 01:20:34,720 --> 01:20:38,720 Speaker 3: until he's fully healthy. So I like the uh, the 1517 01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:43,759 Speaker 3: Titans uh catching over a field goal at home against 1518 01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:44,240 Speaker 3: the Jets. 1519 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:46,840 Speaker 1: That that I heard you say on your show, the 1520 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:50,080 Speaker 1: like classic reaction because you, if you just weren't super 1521 01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,200 Speaker 1: locked into that game, paid to look at the final score. 1522 01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:55,840 Speaker 1: Titans were kicking their ass and they got a punt 1523 01:20:55,840 --> 01:20:58,880 Speaker 1: block for a touchdown, and then the Will Levis Daniel 1524 01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:02,439 Speaker 1: Jones type play. You know, you remove those two, the 1525 01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:07,000 Speaker 1: Bears don't win. The Titans defense was dominating, So. 1526 01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:08,960 Speaker 3: The Bears didn't have one hundred and fifty total yards 1527 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:10,439 Speaker 3: and didn't score an offensive touchdown. 1528 01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:13,240 Speaker 1: And now it's Keenan Allen's banged up. 1529 01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:16,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, somehow came back. It's one of the worst beats 1530 01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:18,320 Speaker 3: of the season. I had some money on the Titans. Unfortunately, 1531 01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:21,840 Speaker 3: up seventeen to nothing, the opposing offense doesn't get to 1532 01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:23,840 Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty total yards for the game, never 1533 01:21:23,880 --> 01:21:27,400 Speaker 3: scores an offensive touchdown. Not only do you lose, which 1534 01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:28,960 Speaker 3: is like a one in a million chance of losing 1535 01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:31,360 Speaker 3: that kind of game, you don't cover four and a half. 1536 01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:35,120 Speaker 3: It's crazy, crazy, But I think you got to say this, 1537 01:21:35,120 --> 01:21:36,680 Speaker 3: this line should be a field goal, Max. I think 1538 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:37,680 Speaker 3: you got to take the hook at home. 1539 01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:39,840 Speaker 1: Well, and the Jets. They got this game and then 1540 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:41,720 Speaker 1: I think they played Thursday night, right, I mean they 1541 01:21:41,720 --> 01:21:44,679 Speaker 1: got to like it could unravel on them really fast. 1542 01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:46,800 Speaker 1: I think they played the Patriots on Thursday night. 1543 01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:49,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, get used to the Jets. They're on I think 1544 01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:51,240 Speaker 3: like in the next starting in week one to like 1545 01:21:51,320 --> 01:21:55,719 Speaker 3: week nine, they're on like six times in Island games. 1546 01:21:55,720 --> 01:21:57,719 Speaker 3: I think ones like international they're on like five times 1547 01:21:57,720 --> 01:21:58,400 Speaker 3: in prime time. 1548 01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:02,200 Speaker 1: But they're notre Dame of the NFL. The hype machine 1549 01:22:02,200 --> 01:22:04,040 Speaker 1: behind them, and you watch them, it's like, yeah, they 1550 01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 1: got some good players, but give me a break. 1551 01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 3: Yeah they they have they all the short week. Next 1552 01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:14,680 Speaker 3: week they starting three games in ten days. It's a 1553 01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:19,400 Speaker 3: brutal stretch. They host the Patriots on Thursday, so short week, 1554 01:22:19,439 --> 01:22:23,120 Speaker 3: the short week after back to back road trip. Not great. 1555 01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:27,080 Speaker 3: But I will say I was impressed with the forty 1556 01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:31,480 Speaker 3: nine ers defense. They just looked livelier. There was more adjustments, 1557 01:22:31,520 --> 01:22:35,599 Speaker 3: more more nuanced. So I think it was a good 1558 01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:40,160 Speaker 3: debut for Sheridan And I'll be curious to watch like 1559 01:22:40,200 --> 01:22:44,200 Speaker 3: the Stally influence that there's more wrinkles, but it just 1560 01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:47,639 Speaker 3: looked more lively, like their defense was kind of Colts 1561 01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:50,760 Speaker 3: esque in the past. Now they have more talent and 1562 01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:52,880 Speaker 3: they would just rely on their front. You know, they 1563 01:22:52,880 --> 01:22:57,960 Speaker 3: didn't really do much. It was pretty consistent, but they 1564 01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:00,000 Speaker 3: kind of kind of got stale at the end Underwilks. 1565 01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:03,360 Speaker 3: I thought it was a really good debut and everyone 1566 01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:05,880 Speaker 3: out just looked a lot lively on that side of 1567 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:06,200 Speaker 3: the ball. 1568 01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:07,960 Speaker 1: Well, they got a couple of things going for him 1569 01:23:08,040 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 1: last year with Wilkes, unlike Demico and Sala, there was 1570 01:23:12,240 --> 01:23:15,240 Speaker 1: like a disconnect between the players and him. They knew 1571 01:23:15,280 --> 01:23:18,599 Speaker 1: those two guys so well. And Fred Warner, who's basically 1572 01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:22,800 Speaker 1: like their ray Lewis or Ed Reid, like his communication 1573 01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:24,600 Speaker 1: with the defensive coordinator, they got to be on the 1574 01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:27,360 Speaker 1: same page, and he felt like the communication was off 1575 01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:29,280 Speaker 1: between those two guys the other. 1576 01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:31,639 Speaker 3: I think Mosta came out and said some stuff too, 1577 01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:32,679 Speaker 3: like yeah, they. 1578 01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:34,080 Speaker 1: Didn't They just didn't like him. They didn't think he 1579 01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:37,120 Speaker 1: knew what he was doing. You add Floyd so they 1580 01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:39,920 Speaker 1: get an extra pass rusher. They were in hardgraves ass 1581 01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:42,000 Speaker 1: this offseason, like we paid a lot of money. Last 1582 01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:45,120 Speaker 1: year was not a great year for the hype. So 1583 01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:47,600 Speaker 1: like he comes and motivated how many teams in the 1584 01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:50,559 Speaker 1: NFL have two good corners, it can't be many, right, 1585 01:23:51,080 --> 01:23:54,600 Speaker 1: So they Ward is a good corner and Leonore this offseason, 1586 01:23:54,640 --> 01:23:57,240 Speaker 1: and listen, I hate giving this guy credit, but Leonora's 1587 01:23:57,280 --> 01:24:01,200 Speaker 1: credited him. Brandon Staley's worked closely with him. They think 1588 01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:03,400 Speaker 1: like they're gonna let Ward walk after the season in 1589 01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:06,600 Speaker 1: a perfect world, and Leonor will become that guy that 1590 01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:09,439 Speaker 1: they go like four deep at safety. They're missing green 1591 01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:12,000 Speaker 1: Law right now. But if you have a good defensive 1592 01:24:12,040 --> 01:24:14,400 Speaker 1: backfield and a good defensive line and Fred Warner in 1593 01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:17,680 Speaker 1: the middle, and your defensive coordinator can communicate with your 1594 01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:22,280 Speaker 1: star player like the place like those guys know. So 1595 01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:24,840 Speaker 1: it's like, hey, let's do this. If we don't need 1596 01:24:24,920 --> 01:24:27,120 Speaker 1: like Bill Belichick, I don't need you to tell me 1597 01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:28,920 Speaker 1: everything I'm doing, Like we got a pretty good idea 1598 01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:32,880 Speaker 1: what's going on. And then the physicality, like their physicality 1599 01:24:32,920 --> 01:24:36,599 Speaker 1: on offense, like obviously McCaffrey in theory is a big blow, 1600 01:24:36,640 --> 01:24:40,120 Speaker 1: but like Jordan Mason, like you can't play for Kyle 1601 01:24:40,600 --> 01:24:42,719 Speaker 1: or in this scheme if you don't run hard downhill. 1602 01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:45,519 Speaker 1: It's why the Packers wanted Josh Jacobs. That's why forever 1603 01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:47,880 Speaker 1: the Kubiak guys have always had good running backs to 1604 01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:51,320 Speaker 1: get one cut go right beside Trent Williams. Most of 1605 01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:54,040 Speaker 1: our guys aren't shoving people around, but there are creases 1606 01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:55,840 Speaker 1: and then when that run, I mean, you have no 1607 01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:57,519 Speaker 1: chance against the forty nine if you're not gonna slow 1608 01:24:57,520 --> 01:24:59,920 Speaker 1: down the run. That's when they're in their defense. Get 1609 01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:04,559 Speaker 1: control that. The concerning thing to me in that game was, 1610 01:25:05,360 --> 01:25:08,720 Speaker 1: if I'm a Jets fan, part of getting Rogers was 1611 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,360 Speaker 1: getting this total package. And I know he was older, 1612 01:25:11,840 --> 01:25:15,720 Speaker 1: but like it's pretty clear he's like a stronger armed 1613 01:25:15,800 --> 01:25:18,360 Speaker 1: Jared Goff. Like he's a pocket quarterback. Now he's not 1614 01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:20,840 Speaker 1: gonna be mobile. The difference is Jared Goff plays on 1615 01:25:20,880 --> 01:25:22,479 Speaker 1: a team that is stacked and in a you know, 1616 01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:25,639 Speaker 1: an elite offensive line with elite weapons. It's like Rogers 1617 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:29,120 Speaker 1: has one guy he can't move. If their defense is 1618 01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:32,280 Speaker 1: no longer high end and just middle of the back, 1619 01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:35,280 Speaker 1: they're kind of fucked. Everyone's like, don't overreact. The diners 1620 01:25:35,280 --> 01:25:37,280 Speaker 1: are great. Yeah, it's not necessarily about that. It's more 1621 01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:40,600 Speaker 1: just like physically the guy doesn't look the same, which unearnerstandable. 1622 01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:43,680 Speaker 1: He's forty years old, coming off like everyone's shitting on Cousins, Like, yeah, 1623 01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:45,840 Speaker 1: cousin has never been able to move and now he's 1624 01:25:45,840 --> 01:25:47,560 Speaker 1: coming off achilles. He's really not gonna be able to 1625 01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:50,560 Speaker 1: move well. Rogers, who was kind of slowing down the 1626 01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:53,519 Speaker 1: last couple of years, now he's got an achilles. He 1627 01:25:53,600 --> 01:25:54,920 Speaker 1: looked pretty stagnant to me. 1628 01:25:56,720 --> 01:25:58,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, he's not gonna be able to move much. 1629 01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:03,720 Speaker 3: And there's like one offensive line injury. It could all 1630 01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:04,679 Speaker 3: fall apart quick. 1631 01:26:05,200 --> 01:26:07,559 Speaker 1: So, especially when they play good defensive tackles they can 1632 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:09,719 Speaker 1: rush up the middle, he'd be in major trouble. 1633 01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:11,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think their defense is gonna take a 1634 01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:13,519 Speaker 3: step back, but their defensive line is not as good, 1635 01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:16,600 Speaker 3: and it's really hard to maintain how good that secondary 1636 01:26:16,760 --> 01:26:19,719 Speaker 3: was last year and they were really healthy. You already 1637 01:26:19,720 --> 01:26:21,280 Speaker 3: saw a couple of guys getting nicked up. They should 1638 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:23,880 Speaker 3: all play this week, but there definitely could be some 1639 01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:25,760 Speaker 3: aggression on that side of the ball. But yeah, it 1640 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:28,360 Speaker 3: was really impressed. Forty nine ers D And I think 1641 01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:30,640 Speaker 3: Staley's he's a good defensive mind. You don't want him 1642 01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:33,080 Speaker 3: like managing anything or running anything, but he's good to 1643 01:26:33,160 --> 01:26:38,040 Speaker 3: have working with the defensive backs, you know, giving his input, 1644 01:26:38,439 --> 01:26:40,200 Speaker 3: adding some wrinkles to the defense. I think it's like a 1645 01:26:40,200 --> 01:26:44,840 Speaker 3: perfect role for him because and he's so different philosophically 1646 01:26:44,920 --> 01:26:48,160 Speaker 3: that I think bouncing off ideas with him and Sheridan 1647 01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:52,080 Speaker 3: can only improve that defense. And yeah, I think ye Autumn, 1648 01:26:52,280 --> 01:26:54,000 Speaker 3: who was terrible early in his career, he was really 1649 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:55,599 Speaker 3: good last year. Think that was like a sneaky good 1650 01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:57,880 Speaker 3: pick up their other corner who fund it didn't even 1651 01:26:57,960 --> 01:27:00,600 Speaker 3: he's gonna come back to He looks like one of 1652 01:27:00,640 --> 01:27:03,439 Speaker 3: the better safeties in the NFL. So there's a lot working, 1653 01:27:04,120 --> 01:27:09,439 Speaker 3: uh in favor of this defense. I was definitely impressed Yea. 1654 01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:11,720 Speaker 1: And the Niners offensive line beside Trent has been a 1655 01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:13,680 Speaker 1: major question. They look like they hit on this guy 1656 01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:16,960 Speaker 1: named Pooney, the Kansas guard Dominic, So all of a sudden, 1657 01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:19,120 Speaker 1: now it's like, well two of our five off like 1658 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:21,479 Speaker 1: Pooney could be a pro bowler. So it's like we 1659 01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:23,400 Speaker 1: have the best left tackle pro bowler. And then you, 1660 01:27:23,520 --> 01:27:25,519 Speaker 1: just like most teams, you just find a couple of 1661 01:27:25,520 --> 01:27:26,599 Speaker 1: guys you can function with. 1662 01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:32,479 Speaker 3: Mcimmit's isn't bad. So yeah, he's not great, but. 1663 01:27:32,439 --> 01:27:33,719 Speaker 1: He don't say that too loud. 1664 01:27:34,800 --> 01:27:37,479 Speaker 3: He's uh, I don't I know. Niners fans don't like him. 1665 01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:39,320 Speaker 1: He actually had a good game in pass Pro. He 1666 01:27:39,320 --> 01:27:41,559 Speaker 1: can you know, like mcglinch, he's fine against the run. 1667 01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:43,040 Speaker 1: I think in pass Pro when he gets in one 1668 01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:47,360 Speaker 1: on one situations, limited athlete can just yeah, but you know, 1669 01:27:47,560 --> 01:27:50,080 Speaker 1: no one can block the JJ, you know, the t J. Watts, 1670 01:27:50,120 --> 01:27:50,880 Speaker 1: the MICA's But. 1671 01:27:51,320 --> 01:27:53,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no he's not. He's definitely not up there 1672 01:27:53,240 --> 01:27:55,280 Speaker 3: as elite. But yeah, if you get Poony on the 1673 01:27:55,280 --> 01:27:59,040 Speaker 3: inside hitting, that's that's huge. I'm roude for you guys, 1674 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:02,760 Speaker 3: because you we have all these lead players, we're gonna 1675 01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:05,720 Speaker 3: have to pay party. So then that's when you got 1676 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:08,280 Speaker 3: tired contracts this summer. 1677 01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:12,639 Speaker 1: It's a big year, segie yep, Okay, okay, last question 1678 01:28:13,680 --> 01:28:16,080 Speaker 1: that call from Doug Peterson. Now they ended up missing 1679 01:28:16,080 --> 01:28:18,280 Speaker 1: a field goal, but to go for fourth down on 1680 01:28:18,320 --> 01:28:21,120 Speaker 1: your own thirty in that situation had some brain and 1681 01:28:21,160 --> 01:28:22,000 Speaker 1: stally vibes. 1682 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:25,280 Speaker 3: Did it not? Yeah? Also, just sneak it, like I 1683 01:28:25,600 --> 01:28:28,360 Speaker 3: don't understand you have a court. Trevor LaRence is such 1684 01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:31,760 Speaker 3: a good seeker. He's like seven foot tall. Sneaking on 1685 01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:34,200 Speaker 3: fourth and one, it's like ninety percent. I don't know 1686 01:28:34,200 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 3: what that play call was. It's not like the the 1687 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:41,280 Speaker 3: Dolphins have this huge front that you can't sneak it on. 1688 01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:46,040 Speaker 3: You're gonna go for it there sneak the ball. But yeah, 1689 01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:47,960 Speaker 3: that was they were just like melting down. There was 1690 01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:50,120 Speaker 3: the fumble, the eighty yard touchdown, and I think they 1691 01:28:50,120 --> 01:28:52,880 Speaker 3: were just like in panic mode. Oh it was. 1692 01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:55,840 Speaker 1: Uh you have the worst feeling as a bit as 1693 01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:58,719 Speaker 1: a better way you could feel control, and then you're 1694 01:28:58,720 --> 01:29:01,800 Speaker 1: just like, oh my god. And when that happens, you 1695 01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:02,559 Speaker 1: just know it's over. 1696 01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:05,200 Speaker 3: And then you're playing Tyreek Hill because a guy pick 1697 01:29:05,240 --> 01:29:07,320 Speaker 3: the Dolphins office. You know they can score so quick, 1698 01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:10,120 Speaker 3: and then they do and then you're like, then they 1699 01:29:10,120 --> 01:29:11,760 Speaker 3: go for it on fourth and you're thinking, I'm like, 1700 01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:16,200 Speaker 3: this is gonna end twenty one seventeen. So yeah, that's 1701 01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:17,840 Speaker 3: that's the most helpless feeling when there's a game that 1702 01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:19,360 Speaker 3: you are not worried about and all of a sudden 1703 01:29:19,400 --> 01:29:21,439 Speaker 3: you're like, oh God, I thought I had this banked 1704 01:29:21,439 --> 01:29:24,640 Speaker 3: as a win. This is gonna change my afternoon. So 1705 01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:25,720 Speaker 3: it's good to have you on. 1706 01:29:25,760 --> 01:29:27,720 Speaker 1: That's part about betting the NFL, man, you just you 1707 01:29:27,760 --> 01:29:30,160 Speaker 1: know them and the Titans. You can never get too cocky. 1708 01:29:30,479 --> 01:29:32,800 Speaker 3: And lets about the Panthers. Then you know it's over 1709 01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:33,519 Speaker 3: in the first minute. 1710 01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:35,840 Speaker 1: Okay, Zucky Man, have a good week.
