WEBVTT - HR2: Changes

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:07.960
<v Speaker 1>This is the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson

0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:10.560
<v Speaker 1>on your twenty four to seven home of the Black

0:00:10.640 --> 0:00:18.640
<v Speaker 1>and Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

0:00:17.200 --> 0:00:18.119
<v Speaker 2>And we are back.

0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:21.400
<v Speaker 3>I am Dale LOLLI he is the Matt Williamson and

0:00:21.680 --> 0:00:26.120
<v Speaker 3>Matt with the weird scheduling this week with Thursday game,

0:00:26.200 --> 0:00:28.920
<v Speaker 3>three Saturday games and your Sunday games and Monday games.

0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:33.080
<v Speaker 3>I thought we'd do a full week starting tonight and

0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:37.360
<v Speaker 3>taking it through Monday DFS lineup for the Fantasy Football segment,

0:00:37.440 --> 0:00:39.760
<v Speaker 3>so we have it allows us to talk about a

0:00:39.760 --> 0:00:42.760
<v Speaker 3>bunch of different players as opposed to just playing tonight's

0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:43.559
<v Speaker 3>game or something like that.

0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 2>There's already four teams that are substantial that are off

0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 2>the dock.

0:00:46.880 --> 0:00:49.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and we'll do tomorrow. We'll just do a Monday

0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 3>a Sunday Monday DFS lineup, so we'll have two different lineups.

0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, that's fine.

0:00:54.120 --> 0:00:57.120
<v Speaker 3>So anyway, so let's look at the lineups this week.

0:00:57.160 --> 0:00:59.360
<v Speaker 3>So you get the Bills start with the defenses, as

0:00:59.360 --> 0:01:02.360
<v Speaker 3>we always do. The Bills at thirty six hundred against

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:02.840
<v Speaker 3>the Jets.

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:05.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't think I'm paying up for that. I don't

0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:06.720
<v Speaker 2>like the way their defense played lately.

0:01:07.000 --> 0:01:09.360
<v Speaker 3>You get the Colts against the Giants at thirty five hundred.

0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>That's not bad.

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:14.800
<v Speaker 3>The Chargers against the UH Patriots at thirty four hundred,

0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:21.280
<v Speaker 3>Buccaneers against Carolina at thirty four hundred, Vikings against the

0:01:21.319 --> 0:01:26.520
<v Speaker 3>Packers at thirty three hundred, Lions against San Francisco at

0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:30.640
<v Speaker 3>thirty three hundred, Dolphins against Cleveland at thirty two hundred.

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:35.160
<v Speaker 3>In quarterback in Cleveland, I don't think it's going to

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:35.800
<v Speaker 3>be dtr.

0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:37.280
<v Speaker 2>I think it's probably Winston.

0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:41.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's interesting, that's interesting. Yeah, Dolphins on the road though,

0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:46.200
<v Speaker 3>Rams at home against Arizona thirty two hundred.

0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 2>As you said, the tackle they don't have it, yeah,

0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:52.600
<v Speaker 2>kind of Connors very questionable. Yeah, this still really I mean,

0:01:52.800 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 2>unfortunately it's superwl weak for everybody. But right there's a

0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.320
<v Speaker 2>lot of big dogs getting shut down. There's a lot

0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.559
<v Speaker 2>of questionables. Who's gonna play, you know.

0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:03.840
<v Speaker 3>The Commanders at home against the Falcons are thirty one hundred,

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 3>The Eagles against Dallas thirty one hundred, Jaguars against the

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 3>Titans are three thousand. Seahawks tonight against Chicago or three thousand.

0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:17.400
<v Speaker 3>The Bengals against Denver are three thousand.

0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Saints.

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:22.440
<v Speaker 3>Why would the Bengals defense be more expensive than Denver's

0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:23.560
<v Speaker 3>defense in that game.

0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:26.120
<v Speaker 2>I was thinking of the same thing. Aha, just say,

0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:28.560
<v Speaker 2>what's Denver is gonna be? Denver's is really good, but

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 2>they're putting up points. They're putting up points, but you're

0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:34.120
<v Speaker 2>still gonna get sacks and yeah, things of that nature.

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:35.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Denver's got a good D.

0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:40.799
<v Speaker 3>The Saints against Las Vegas are twenty nine hundred. I'd

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:42.080
<v Speaker 3>rather play Las Vegas.

0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:44.160
<v Speaker 2>DA me too. Yeah, what's that one.

0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:46.960
<v Speaker 3>Broncos against the Bengals on the other side of that

0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:47.800
<v Speaker 3>are twenty eight hundred.

0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:48.800
<v Speaker 2>They're not too far off.

0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:54.519
<v Speaker 3>The Titans against Jacksonville are twenty eight hundred. The Bears

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:56.440
<v Speaker 3>tonight against Seattle or twenty eight hundred.

0:02:56.639 --> 0:02:58.320
<v Speaker 2>We definitely go cheap. There's a bunch of these that

0:02:58.360 --> 0:02:59.040
<v Speaker 2>aren't bad.

0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:01.680
<v Speaker 3>The Bears defense is number one in the league against

0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 3>opposing quarterbacks. They do not give up anything through the air.

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:07.640
<v Speaker 3>You can run against them, yeah, yeah, but you can't

0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:11.400
<v Speaker 3>pass the ball necessarily against him, And I don't see

0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 3>Seattle's offensive line is all kinds of banged up.

0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:16.440
<v Speaker 2>It is. Bearsd hasn't been great lately, but that's a

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:18.720
<v Speaker 2>good point. You're at home. Yeah, on a short week,

0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 2>could be kind of a nasty field too, Who knows,

0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:22.919
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what to what we're kind of weather,

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:25.760
<v Speaker 2>we're ex back in the night. But I don't hate that.

0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:28.640
<v Speaker 3>The Packers on the other side of that game against

0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:30.280
<v Speaker 3>Minnesota are twenty seven hundred.

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.240
<v Speaker 2>He's been playing well, but I could see a lot.

0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:34.560
<v Speaker 3>Of points not against it. Yeah, they've been playing guard matship.

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:38.640
<v Speaker 3>Falcons against Washington are twenty seven hundred. The Raiders against

0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.760
<v Speaker 3>the Saints wants to Move are twenty six hundred dollars.

0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:43.560
<v Speaker 2>I really don't even care who the defense is, like

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:45.680
<v Speaker 2>a Kouspov's playing the Giants and Saints.

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:48.280
<v Speaker 3>Saints aren't breaking twenty points in that game.

0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:50.560
<v Speaker 2>Though, I mean, I don't care the Crosby doesn't play,

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:52.840
<v Speaker 2>that's a good one. Yeah.

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:54.600
<v Speaker 3>Now it's in New Orleans, I guess you know.

0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:56.360
<v Speaker 2>I know, but the fans could turn on him too.

0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 3>You could also start the Cowboys defense against Kenny Pickett.

0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:03.360
<v Speaker 2>Five hundred dollars might even be McKee, right. I mean,

0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:08.840
<v Speaker 2>if it's hurts, I think you get out of it.

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:13.480
<v Speaker 2>It's not bad like it's cheap. Yeah, I think I

0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:17.159
<v Speaker 2>like the going against I think I take the Raiders.

0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I don't. I don't have a problem with that.

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Sam, I would definitely go cheaper ones.

0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:25.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's just it doesn't make a lot of sense

0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:27.320
<v Speaker 3>to pay up because some of the teams that you're

0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:30.600
<v Speaker 3>paying up for are bad defenses, like Colts.

0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:35.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah right, and they're on the road, and yeah, so

0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:38.039
<v Speaker 2>why not the Raiders. Yeah, it's good, spy not they're

0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:41.480
<v Speaker 2>playing hard, they won last week. Get to play the Saints.

0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:43.040
<v Speaker 3>You get to play the Saints. That's the big thing.

0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.279
<v Speaker 3>At quarterback, you wanna go quarterback or tight end?

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:47.600
<v Speaker 2>All right? Quarterbacks? Fine, all right.

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 3>Josh Allen is eighty five hundred against the Jets. Could

0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:52.440
<v Speaker 3>be the last time you get to see him this year.

0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:52.920
<v Speaker 3>They're at home.

0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's fighting an injury though.

0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:59.480
<v Speaker 3>J Jade and Daniels seventy eight hundred. Jalen hurts his

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:03.640
<v Speaker 3>questionable seventy five hundred, Joe Burrow seventy two hundred. Denver's

0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:07.040
<v Speaker 3>fifth against opposing quarterbacks and they get Riley Moss's back

0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:07.400
<v Speaker 3>at corner.

0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:14.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's big. Baker Mayfield against Carolina sixty nine hundred.

0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:15.800
<v Speaker 3>You need to win that game.

0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:20.719
<v Speaker 2>Jared Goff sixty eight hundred, Sam Darnold sixty four hundred,

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:26.280
<v Speaker 2>Rock Perty sixty three hundred, Bo Knicks sixty two hundred

0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:29.479
<v Speaker 2>against that Bengals defense. I mean you've probably got to

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:30.440
<v Speaker 2>throw to keep up too.

0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:34.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Jordan, and he's gonna run like that's not bad

0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.160
<v Speaker 3>Jordan Love sixty two hundred.

0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:39.839
<v Speaker 2>That game could be a shootout. Yeah, I think it

0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:40.160
<v Speaker 2>will be.

0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:42.360
<v Speaker 3>Kyler Murray six thousand.

0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:44.880
<v Speaker 2>I think they're my favorite too so far, Nickson Love.

0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:51.520
<v Speaker 3>Anthony Richardson fifty nine hundred, Justin Herbert fifty nine hundred

0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:56.120
<v Speaker 3>to Attago Vailoa fifty eight hundred, Drake May fifty eight

0:05:56.160 --> 0:06:02.279
<v Speaker 3>hundred against the Chargers, Matthew Stafford fifty seven hundred, Aaron

0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:06.040
<v Speaker 3>Rodgers fifty seven hundred, Caleb Williams fifty seven hundred dollars.

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:10.680
<v Speaker 2>They are he hasn't turned the ball over. No, he's

0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:13.240
<v Speaker 2>got weapons and they can't run the football. No, it's

0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.160
<v Speaker 2>not a bad defense he's playing. But he says a

0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:20.799
<v Speaker 2>pretty well, yeah, they get weapons cheap runs like that's

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:24.279
<v Speaker 2>way cheap. Do you like him better than Nix? And

0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:27.240
<v Speaker 2>I forget who's right now? Love, I might like those

0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:29.520
<v Speaker 2>guys a little bit more but for the Buck, but

0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:32.880
<v Speaker 2>for the Bock, I mean, Caleb Williams, is he stills

0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:37.800
<v Speaker 2>a lot to prove Keithan Allen's playing well? What man? Yeah?

0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:42.920
<v Speaker 2>Bryce Young at fifty six hundred even cheaper against Tampa Bay. Yeah,

0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:45.279
<v Speaker 2>like they just played a few weeks ago.

0:06:45.360 --> 0:06:49.280
<v Speaker 3>Bryce Young against Tampa Bay put up twenty three point

0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:50.840
<v Speaker 3>sixty two Fantasy points.

0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.440
<v Speaker 2>He's been productive. He had two hundred and ninety eight

0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:58.320
<v Speaker 2>passing yards in a touchdown and ran three times for

0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:00.960
<v Speaker 2>seventeen yards in a touchdowns. Running three or four times

0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:01.760
<v Speaker 2>a game, give or take.

0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:04.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean he's run the ball actually more than

0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:07.039
<v Speaker 3>that recently. Do you like him more than five three

0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:08.000
<v Speaker 3>seven three three?

0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I don't hate it. Yeah, I mean you know,

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.120
<v Speaker 2>for the Buck, you're the Bucks have to be low

0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:19.120
<v Speaker 2>against quarterbacks. Yeah, they're going to put up points. Williams

0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.800
<v Speaker 2>and Young are going to put up points in those games.

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:23.760
<v Speaker 2>I agree. I agree? Which one? Do you know? All

0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:28.640
<v Speaker 2>the bad weapons? Maybe just because the cheaper one, so

0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:31.400
<v Speaker 2>Bryce Young. I think we'd be starting Bryce Young at

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 2>this point right there for Christmas.

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:35.840
<v Speaker 3>But again, I think I think when you look at

0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:41.200
<v Speaker 3>his production over the last what five six weeks twenty

0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:43.560
<v Speaker 3>seven point one two fifteen point nine. I guess he

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:44.960
<v Speaker 3>had a couple of talents.

0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:47.560
<v Speaker 2>He's more roller coaster than you might think, but you

0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:49.960
<v Speaker 2>would think his wheels would keep him his floor a

0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:53.040
<v Speaker 2>little higher. But I think I might like Caleb Williams

0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 2>a little bit more just because of that. Okay, Well,

0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:57.560
<v Speaker 2>he's a little bit roller coaster to a little bit.

0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:01.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I guess, but his his roller coaster is on

0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:05.720
<v Speaker 3>the road though. Yeah, Bryce Young at home has been

0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:09.800
<v Speaker 3>see his last several home games twenty six point seven

0:08:09.760 --> 0:08:10.160
<v Speaker 3>to six.

0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:11.920
<v Speaker 2>You're talking about Williams are young.

0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:14.760
<v Speaker 3>This is Williams twenty seven point seven to six against Detroit.

0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:18.760
<v Speaker 3>They played Minnesota at home, he had twenty nine point nine.

0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.480
<v Speaker 3>They played Green Bay at home. Well, that's his low

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:23.680
<v Speaker 3>point twenty six or sixteen point twenty four.

0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:26.960
<v Speaker 2>Let's put him man. Yeah, I think I think the

0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:29.480
<v Speaker 2>floor at home for him, there's a big difference there.

0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:33.120
<v Speaker 2>For whatever reason, they're so horrendous, they're a definite team.

0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:37.720
<v Speaker 2>That home road splits her something to be aware of. Okay,

0:08:37.720 --> 0:08:40.400
<v Speaker 2>so running back, let's go tight end. We got the

0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 2>standalone here. Brock Bauer sixty seven hundred. I think they're

0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 2>trying to get him. Yeah, I think they're trying to

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:49.959
<v Speaker 2>get the ball. Trey McBride is so he didn't play bad. No,

0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:53.440
<v Speaker 2>he's right, he's fine. We never got to him. They're

0:08:53.440 --> 0:08:59.320
<v Speaker 2>playing the Saints. McBride is sixty two hundred, George Kittle

0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:03.680
<v Speaker 2>six thousand, Detroit is number two against tight ends. John

0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Uther Smith is fifty seven hundred, Sam Laporta forty nine hundred.

0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:11.199
<v Speaker 2>Big drop off there after those guys, and Djoku is

0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:16.800
<v Speaker 2>forty seven hundred, Hockinson forty five hundred. Uh, don't don't

0:09:16.840 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 2>mind the Joku. They feed him no matter what. He's questionable. Yeah, yeah,

0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:22.320
<v Speaker 2>he played last week, but yeah, he was questionable.

0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:25.440
<v Speaker 3>Kinkaid is forty three hundred, Kate Aughton forty two hundred.

0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:29.079
<v Speaker 3>They're twenty eighth against opposing tight ends. Hunter Henry is

0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:33.959
<v Speaker 3>forty two hundred, Brenton Strange four thousand, they're fifth against

0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:40.280
<v Speaker 3>opposing tight ends. Tucker Kraft thirty nine hundred, eleventh.

0:09:41.320 --> 0:09:46.360
<v Speaker 2>Craft's a good player. Yeah. I always hesitate to jump

0:09:46.360 --> 0:09:48.640
<v Speaker 2>on their pass catchers for dfs because.

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:51.520
<v Speaker 3>There's too many, right, too many. There's a name on

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:54.520
<v Speaker 3>here that I want to get to. Kyle Pitts is

0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:57.360
<v Speaker 3>not it. Cocomett is not it. Zach Ertz is not it.

0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:01.760
<v Speaker 3>Will Disley is questionable. Jake Ferguson is thirty seven hundred,

0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:05.760
<v Speaker 3>chig and quonquo. He's been hot, thirty six hundred. He

0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:07.680
<v Speaker 3>has over twenty targets the last two weeks.

0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he should not be that low.

0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:12.240
<v Speaker 3>He should He has twenty one targets. He has one

0:10:12.280 --> 0:10:15.880
<v Speaker 3>hundred and forty receiving yards on seventeen catches the last

0:10:15.880 --> 0:10:16.400
<v Speaker 3>two games.

0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Let's fire him up. I mean, I bet he's super chalky,

0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:25.079
<v Speaker 2>but I'd rather have the lineup right, right, Yeah, when

0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:28.760
<v Speaker 2>it's that chalky. Yeah, yeah, at thirty six hundred, that

0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:32.679
<v Speaker 2>really I liked him as a Receiver's been some inconsistencies,

0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:33.720
<v Speaker 2>but I like to play.

0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 3>Playing the Jaguars and Madson Rudolph starting, and the Jaguars

0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:38.000
<v Speaker 3>embarrassed them at home a couple of weeks ago.

0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.240
<v Speaker 2>Jags back seven is not good against past.

0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:43.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, running back. You're looking at Saquon Barkley at eighty

0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:46.040
<v Speaker 3>six hundred against Dallas.

0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:50.600
<v Speaker 2>Consider it, and yeah, I don't love it. If it's

0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 2>McKee or picket though, that's the problem, right, I mean,

0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:55.200
<v Speaker 2>it helps your touch push and short touchdown.

0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:59.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you're gonna get the touchdowns. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Jamiir

0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:00.320
<v Speaker 3>Gibbs is eighty five hundred.

0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:03.640
<v Speaker 2>I get that one hundred percent too and would have

0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 2>a problem with it.

0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:06.319
<v Speaker 3>Jon Robinson is eighty two hundred.

0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:07.480
<v Speaker 2>Looks great.

0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:11.560
<v Speaker 3>Josh Jacobs eighty one hundred. Minnesota is third against opposing

0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:17.559
<v Speaker 3>running Yeah. Jonathan Taylor seventy nine hundred they are playing

0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:19.600
<v Speaker 3>the Giants are twenty ninth against.

0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Opposing crazy big game. Yeah, I don't think you're chasing points.

0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:25.680
<v Speaker 2>They need to win the game, right right. Devin ah

0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:29.800
<v Speaker 2>Chan seventy seven hundred. Cleveland is fifth against opposing running backs.

0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:32.199
<v Speaker 2>This was one of his best games, but I don't

0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:35.840
<v Speaker 2>love that one. Chase Brown against Denver seventy six hundred.

0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:39.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure they're high, but he gets a higher percentage.

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:42.080
<v Speaker 2>They're actually sixteenth against running really. Yeah, it's not mean.

0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:46.240
<v Speaker 2>His usage is almost insane. I mean it's way higher

0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:48.640
<v Speaker 2>than any other back in the league. Kyron Williams against

0:11:48.720 --> 0:11:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Arizona seventy five hundred. They're twenty six against opposing running Wow.

0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:54.680
<v Speaker 2>He should be more expensive than that. Yeah, I mean

0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:57.240
<v Speaker 2>he gets all the touches. Yeah, doesn't get a lot

0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:58.640
<v Speaker 2>of carry or catches. But that's right.

0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:01.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, James Connor seven four hundred. I think he's highly

0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 3>Kamara is seventy three hundred. James Cook against the Jets

0:12:05.160 --> 0:12:10.040
<v Speaker 3>is seventy two hundred. Chewba Hubbard against Tampa Bay seven thousand.

0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:14.120
<v Speaker 3>Bucky Irving on the other side of that is sixty

0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:17.200
<v Speaker 3>seven hundred and does he have a question No, Carolina

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:20.280
<v Speaker 3>is thirty second against opposing running backs, and again, Tampa

0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:21.400
<v Speaker 3>Bay needs to win the game.

0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:23.959
<v Speaker 2>I would have a hard time not putting him in

0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:24.200
<v Speaker 2>the line.

0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:26.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think he just he might be chalky too.

0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:29.640
<v Speaker 3>Sure everybody against Carolina in the running back position.

0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Is going to be chalky, right, I must win type

0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:33.559
<v Speaker 2>of situation. That's your best guy. I'd rather he run

0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:35.120
<v Speaker 2>the ball, really, rather have him than not.

0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:42.400
<v Speaker 3>Isaac Grendo sixty five hundred. He's questionable. Tony Pollard is questionable.

0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:45.360
<v Speaker 3>He is sixty four hundred. And of course the Jaguars

0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:46.800
<v Speaker 3>are thirty first against the run.

0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:48.439
<v Speaker 2>I'd rather look at Spears.

0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:56.240
<v Speaker 3>Breese Hall sixty three hundred, Buffalo thirtieth against opposing running backs.

0:12:56.320 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 2>I wonder what's his snapcounts? Ben, I don't think they've

0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:02.199
<v Speaker 2>been low. No he played or anything.

0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:04.520
<v Speaker 3>No, I think they might want to get into without

0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:07.040
<v Speaker 3>He had fourteen for fifty two. Last week he had

0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:11.480
<v Speaker 3>five catches on six targets for thirty eight. So he's

0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:14.920
<v Speaker 3>getting the ball, Yeah, twenty times a game. The week

0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:17.679
<v Speaker 3>before that they were he was banged up.

0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Injury.

0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but the catches are you know, you go back

0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:25.360
<v Speaker 3>to the Colts game, seven targets, seven catches, four targets,

0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:27.720
<v Speaker 3>four k He just it's pretty consistent.

0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:33.480
<v Speaker 3>Aaron Jones is sixty two hundred, Brian Robinson is sixty

0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:35.680
<v Speaker 3>one hundred. Kenneth Walker's on IR it doesn't matter.

0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that just happened.

0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:39.800
<v Speaker 3>Rico dal Dell six thousand, phillies second against the run.

0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:45.320
<v Speaker 3>I'll bet though, Zach Charboney six thousand in tonight's game. Yeah,

0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:47.760
<v Speaker 3>they're twenty eighth against opposing running backs. I said, that's

0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:50.520
<v Speaker 3>their Walker's out. He's a very run funnel team.

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:51.720
<v Speaker 2>I think that's the move.

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:53.920
<v Speaker 3>All right, So we got the quarterback and the running

0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:55.440
<v Speaker 3>back from the other team in tonight's game.

0:13:56.080 --> 0:13:58.360
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so yeah, it is what it is.

0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:02.920
<v Speaker 3>Okay, let's move on to wide receiver. We can average.

0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Sixty three fifty here the rest of the way, so

0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:07.120
<v Speaker 2>we can still pay up for a wide receiver if

0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:07.480
<v Speaker 2>we want.

0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:10.360
<v Speaker 3>Jamar Chase is eighty four hundred.

0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:12.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't like he'll get certain.

0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:14.760
<v Speaker 3>I assume he gets a certained for they gets.

0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:15.440
<v Speaker 2>Doubled and certained.

0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:20.760
<v Speaker 3>Takes Hagen, Yeah, Justin Jefferson eighty three hundred. Green Bay

0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:24.760
<v Speaker 3>is first against opposing wide receiver. Really, yeah, Puka ni

0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:26.360
<v Speaker 3>Kua eight thousand.

0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.520

0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:34.920

<v Speaker 3>A mon Ros Saint Brown seventy seven hundred, Mike Evans

0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:40.800
<v Speaker 3>seventy five hundred.

<v Speaker 2>I'm sure he'll be fine.

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:47.000
<v Speaker 3>Ceedee lamb, you just said they shut him out. Yeah.

0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:46.800
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:50.880
<v Speaker 3>Terry mclaurin's seventy two hundred, he's questionable. They're thirtieth against

0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:57.160
<v Speaker 3>to pass. DeVante Adams seventy one hundred. Crazy, Yeah, he's questionable.

0:14:57.160 --> 0:14:59.040
<v Speaker 3>Tyreek Kill was questionable. There's a lot of cues here

0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 3>on the water receavage. Tyer Kills sixty nine hundred. T.

0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:04.960

0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:12.160
<v Speaker 3>Brian Thomas Junior sixty eight hundred. They're third against opposing

0:15:12.160 --> 0:15:13.080
<v Speaker 3>wide receivers though.

0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:16.040

<v Speaker 3>Malik Neighbors sixty six hundred.

0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:22.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't care who the quarterback is. They throw them

0:15:22.080 --> 0:15:22.640
<v Speaker 2>ball a time.

0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:24.960

0:15:35.440 --> 0:15:38.720

<v Speaker 3>as his Judy Courtland. Sutton against Cincinnati sixty three hundred.

0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:49.520
<v Speaker 2>Wow, I like that a lot. I don't see right,

0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:53.000

<v Speaker 3>I'm plugging it in at sixty three. That's too good

0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:01.080
<v Speaker 3>to be true.

0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:02.840

0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:16.640
<v Speaker 3>Garrett Wilson against Buffalo sixty one hundred.

0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:20.440
<v Speaker 2>He's been complaining lately, squeaky wheel. Yeah, yeah, squeaky wheel.

0:16:21.320 --> 0:16:22.760
<v Speaker 2>That seems cheap for him anyways.

0:16:23.560 --> 0:16:26.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, he hasn't been getting the ball they threw

0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:27.880
<v Speaker 3>to him in garbage time less way, I think he

0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:28.880
<v Speaker 3>gets the ball this week.

0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:31.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm fine with it. Yeah, he's an easy one to

0:16:31.240 --> 0:16:32.640
<v Speaker 2>convince me on. I love the player.

0:16:33.160 --> 0:16:35.160
<v Speaker 3>Jamison Williams is six thousand.

0:16:35.360 --> 0:16:36.640
<v Speaker 2>He's been pretty good lately too.

0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:41.320
<v Speaker 3>Jacobe Myers against the Saints is six thousand. They're twenty

0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 3>fifth against the pass.

0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm sure they are.

0:16:44.240 --> 0:16:44.360
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:50.080
<v Speaker 3>Jayden Reid fifty nine hundred. They are thirty second against

0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 3>opposing wide receivers.

0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:54.000
<v Speaker 2>One of their receivers out I think is that Watt

0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Watson is out out? Okay, Yeah, that clear things up

0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:59.640
<v Speaker 2>a little. Yeah. I don't mind Reid, I don't mind Myers.

0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:04.040
<v Speaker 3>DJ Moore could be our stack tonight. Fifty nine hundred.

0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:08.879
<v Speaker 2>BacT. You haven't mentioned Keenan Allen. He's been on fire. Yeah.

0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:10.680
<v Speaker 3>Juwan Jennings is fifty eight hundred.

0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:15.320
<v Speaker 2>Detroit is thirty first against opposing wide receivers.

0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:19.200
<v Speaker 3>DeVonta Smith is fifty eight hundred. Keenan Allen is fifty

0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:19.879
<v Speaker 3>eight hundred.

0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:22.640
<v Speaker 2>I think you go yes on that.

0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:26.440
<v Speaker 3>That's a nice stack, and we have seventy two hundred left.

0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:29.600
<v Speaker 3>I wouldn't even mind going Dj Moore with the stack

0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:29.920
<v Speaker 3>in that.

0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:35.120
<v Speaker 2>For the third receiver as our flex, or we could

0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:37.120
<v Speaker 2>we could pay up with for our flex, we can

0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:41.760
<v Speaker 2>get James Cook, Terry McLaurin, DeVante, Adams, Chuba Hubbard, Tyreek Hill,

0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:45.000
<v Speaker 2>these guys off, they're all questionable. I don't like that. Neighborhood.

0:17:45.080 --> 0:17:48.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we may be able to pay up a defensive.

0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't want to pivot off Jig. I don't either.

0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:58.159
<v Speaker 3>We could pay up a quarterback, but we've already.

0:17:57.880 --> 0:18:02.919
<v Speaker 2>Put keenan Allen, Yeah, stacked nice back. There is there

0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:07.280
<v Speaker 2>a running back or receiver we could upgrade too. I

0:18:07.320 --> 0:18:10.240
<v Speaker 2>like the Bucky Irving, Yeah, call you know. I like

0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:14.440
<v Speaker 2>Charbonne Tonight against like both of those. So we're let

0:18:14.440 --> 0:18:19.080
<v Speaker 2>me regress here. We have one spot for amount of

0:18:19.119 --> 0:18:22.400
<v Speaker 2>money that we don't love the flex for right, let

0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:24.359
<v Speaker 2>me get so we could go brock Bowers at sixty

0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:27.200
<v Speaker 2>seven hundred as a flex. As a flex, we.

0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:33.160
<v Speaker 3>Can get neighbors. We can get lab mconkie, Cooper, cup Pollard.

0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:38.480
<v Speaker 2>Do you prefer neighbors or McConkie, London, brist Hall Bad,

0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:45.480
<v Speaker 2>Jordan Addison, Brian Robinson, Neighbors and mconkie kind of stand

0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:48.480
<v Speaker 2>out to me. There's not much target competition for those guys.

0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:52.200
<v Speaker 2>Is what is DJ Moore done? He had seven for

0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:57.880
<v Speaker 2>sixty eight last time out. He had on ten targets

0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:02.520
<v Speaker 2>his last five games ten targets, eight targets, eight targets,

0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:09.640
<v Speaker 2>sixteen targets, seven targets. He has seven seven, eight, six,

0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:10.719
<v Speaker 2>eight seven.

0:19:11.480 --> 0:19:14.600
<v Speaker 3>In terms of catches now, the yardage totals once in

0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:17.440
<v Speaker 3>a while sixty eight, forty six, forty nine, ninety seven

0:19:17.480 --> 0:19:19.560
<v Speaker 3>to one oh six. But he scored two touchdowns in

0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:21.879
<v Speaker 3>that stretch as well, and we got the quarterback in

0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:22.480
<v Speaker 3>the lineup.

0:19:23.240 --> 0:19:26.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't mind being double set. Yeah, they can't run

0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:29.000
<v Speaker 2>the football. No, I don't think they're going to run

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:30.800
<v Speaker 2>the football against Seattle. I think they want to develop

0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Williams too and get him as comfortable as possible.

0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:35.480
<v Speaker 3>So if we go, if we do that, then we

0:19:35.560 --> 0:19:39.239
<v Speaker 3>have thirteen hundred left over. We want to pay up

0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:43.000
<v Speaker 3>a defense. We can go get the Bills defense against

0:19:43.040 --> 0:19:45.520
<v Speaker 3>the Jets. We can get the Colts against the Giants.

0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:49.600
<v Speaker 3>I think I prefer the Colts the Chargers against the Patriots.

0:19:50.600 --> 0:19:52.480
<v Speaker 2>It's not bad either. It's in New England, but yeah,

0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:52.880
<v Speaker 2>not bad.

0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:55.200
<v Speaker 3>Should be sacks, should be sacks.

0:19:55.400 --> 0:20:01.480
<v Speaker 2>I'd say Chargers of Colts. M who's the Giants starters

0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:04.760
<v Speaker 2>at lock still? Man, I know he's hurt, he's horrible. Yeah,

0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:06.080
<v Speaker 2>he's hurt and he's horrible. Yeah.

0:20:06.119 --> 0:20:11.280
<v Speaker 3>Other than that, he's Yeah. The defense, I mean, I

0:20:11.320 --> 0:20:14.240
<v Speaker 3>like the Chargers defense better than the Colts defense by.

0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:17.399
<v Speaker 2>A long storm thousand. They're both pretty bad offense.

0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:19.640
<v Speaker 3>And for the Patriots to win, they're going to run

0:20:19.680 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 3>the ball. Whi's going to keep the score down.

0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:27.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Romandre fumbles a lot. Romandre fumbles a lot. Let's

0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:27.800
<v Speaker 2>do Chargers.

0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:37.959
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that still leaves us with five hundred leftover? Or

0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:39.400
<v Speaker 3>do we want to try to pay up?

0:20:40.840 --> 0:20:43.720
<v Speaker 2>Let me let me tex check defense. Let me check

0:20:43.720 --> 0:20:44.000
<v Speaker 2>one thing.

0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:47.840
<v Speaker 3>You're Raiders back in if we pay up on Courtland Sutton,

0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:51.520
<v Speaker 3>he was our most expensive receiver. It's sixty get a

0:20:51.520 --> 0:20:56.240
<v Speaker 3>real base. We can get Mike Evans at seventy five hundred.

0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:59.240
<v Speaker 2>That's a move. I don't love the It's fine moving

0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:01.160
<v Speaker 2>up on the defense. If anything that Gain does does

0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 2>on yeah, yeah, I'll be talking about the difference of

0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:08.399
<v Speaker 2>maybe two points. Mike Evans is on that thousand yard crusade.

0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:11.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't know how close he is, but they got

0:21:11.160 --> 0:21:12.720
<v Speaker 3>two games left and he's got.

0:21:12.920 --> 0:21:14.880
<v Speaker 2>I think he's in striking distance.

0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:19.640
<v Speaker 3>He has, yeah, eight hundred and eighteen yards. Yeah, he's

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:23.280
<v Speaker 3>playing Mike Evans the ball. He is going to get

0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:23.600
<v Speaker 3>the foot.

0:21:23.720 --> 0:21:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:21:24.720 --> 0:21:26.800
<v Speaker 3>That only leaves us to one hundred dollars left, I think.

0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:28.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:21:28.640 --> 0:21:32.479
<v Speaker 3>So we got Caleb Williams at quarterback, win Tonight, Bucky

0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:37.040
<v Speaker 3>Irving and Zach Charbonnet at running back, Mike Evans, Garrett Wilson,

0:21:37.080 --> 0:21:39.520
<v Speaker 3>Keenan Allen at wide receiver. That's two weeks in a

0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:42.240
<v Speaker 3>row we've had Mike Evans and Keenan Allen. Yeah, in

0:21:42.280 --> 0:21:45.119
<v Speaker 3>a lot they hit for us last week. Chicken klonk

0:21:45.200 --> 0:21:48.199
<v Speaker 3>Wo at the tight end position, thirty six hundred dollars,

0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:52.119
<v Speaker 3>DJ Moore in a flex at fifty nine hundred, and

0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:54.320
<v Speaker 3>the Raiders defense at twenty six hundred.

0:21:54.520 --> 0:21:57.040
<v Speaker 2>Play in the Saints, play in the Saints. Yeah, there

0:21:57.119 --> 0:21:59.720
<v Speaker 2>you go. Yeah, I like it, locking it in, locking

0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:03.439
<v Speaker 2>it in, and we are in there, we go, all right,

0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:04.960
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna get to a break that's gonna do it

0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:07.040
<v Speaker 2>for the Fantasy Football Focus.

0:22:07.480 --> 0:22:10.560
<v Speaker 3>A lot of decent matchups this week for Championship Week.

0:22:10.680 --> 0:22:13.200
<v Speaker 2>There are there's some scary ones. Some scary ones yeah too,

0:22:13.320 --> 0:22:15.520
<v Speaker 2>Like don't always dance with U Brunya. You gotta be

0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:18.120
<v Speaker 2>able to some of the stars we're playing this week.

0:22:18.160 --> 0:22:20.399
<v Speaker 2>I picked up Chicken quonquoll. Yeah. I don't blame me.

0:22:20.440 --> 0:22:21.040
<v Speaker 2>It's a good move.

0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:23.239
<v Speaker 3>I mean he's getting the ball a lot, Yeah, so

0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:27.439
<v Speaker 3>why not take the targets. But anyways, let's get to

0:22:27.480 --> 0:22:30.280
<v Speaker 3>a break. He is Matt Williamson. I am Dale Lolly.

0:22:30.359 --> 0:22:38.560
<v Speaker 3>You're listening to the Drive on the Steelers Audio Network.

0:22:38.720 --> 0:22:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Is the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson on

0:22:42.080 --> 0:22:44.240
<v Speaker 1>your twenty four to seven home of the Black and

0:22:44.320 --> 0:22:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:51.120
<v Speaker 2>And we are back.

0:22:51.200 --> 0:22:54.080
<v Speaker 3>I am Dale LOLLI he is the Matt Williamson and

0:22:54.080 --> 0:22:55.120
<v Speaker 3>this is the Drive on the.

0:22:55.080 --> 0:22:57.520
<v Speaker 2>Steelers Audio Network. And Matt.

0:22:57.560 --> 0:23:01.200
<v Speaker 3>After yesterday's game, uh, the twenty nine to ten loss

0:23:01.240 --> 0:23:04.479
<v Speaker 3>to the Kansas City Chiefs, Mike Tomlin intimated that there

0:23:04.480 --> 0:23:08.520
<v Speaker 3>would be some changes. Yeah, they're doing how they're doing

0:23:08.720 --> 0:23:11.240
<v Speaker 3>and who they're doing it with. Nothing is off limits.

0:23:11.720 --> 0:23:15.359
<v Speaker 3>So I have some ideas on some things. I would do. Okay,

0:23:15.480 --> 0:23:17.919
<v Speaker 3>we'll go back and forth through. I'm gonna go first.

0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:23.800
<v Speaker 3>One thing I would do is I would strongly consider

0:23:24.600 --> 0:23:26.320
<v Speaker 3>putting Minka Fitzpatrick in the slot.

0:23:26.960 --> 0:23:31.119
<v Speaker 2>I was thinking that too. I love his usage as

0:23:31.119 --> 0:23:34.520
<v Speaker 2>a deep center fielder, but I think KZ can do it.

0:23:34.640 --> 0:23:37.280
<v Speaker 3>Yes, and we have I think KZ on the field

0:23:37.320 --> 0:23:39.320
<v Speaker 3>is better than what they're doing in the slot right now.

0:23:39.640 --> 0:23:42.440
<v Speaker 2>I see what you're saying. I would rather have KZ

0:23:42.560 --> 0:23:45.159
<v Speaker 2>out there, who's your best eleven KZ out there or

0:23:45.240 --> 0:23:48.760
<v Speaker 2>the slot situation which isn't pretty at the moment, and

0:23:48.800 --> 0:23:52.360
<v Speaker 2>make it close to the ball, you know, better run defender.

0:23:52.720 --> 0:23:55.920
<v Speaker 2>We've seen a lot more of him not in deep

0:23:55.920 --> 0:23:58.439
<v Speaker 2>middle of the last couple of games, and that's not

0:23:58.520 --> 0:23:59.560
<v Speaker 2>why they're losing foks.

0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:02.640
<v Speaker 3>No know, right, Like he's making plays all over the place.

0:24:02.760 --> 0:24:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I think that's a real good one. And then basically

0:24:06.640 --> 0:24:07.880
<v Speaker 2>make him the slot.

0:24:07.920 --> 0:24:12.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, which he's when they're when they're in the base defense,

0:24:12.400 --> 0:24:13.440
<v Speaker 3>he's in deep center field.

0:24:13.480 --> 0:24:15.480
<v Speaker 2>He can be here. He's still he's a free safety.

0:24:15.880 --> 0:24:20.359
<v Speaker 2>When you go to when you're playing thirteen or eleven person,

0:24:20.480 --> 0:24:24.840
<v Speaker 2>I should say he's playing the slot. It's a good one, yeah,

0:24:24.840 --> 0:24:25.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm all for it.

0:24:25.800 --> 0:24:28.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean, to me, the slot has been a big problem,

0:24:29.640 --> 0:24:33.440
<v Speaker 3>huge problem, not just in in this recent stretch, but really.

0:24:33.640 --> 0:24:36.080
<v Speaker 2>In the weakest part of the defense since Week one. Yeah,

0:24:36.160 --> 0:24:38.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, and which nobody was shocked about. You know,

0:24:39.119 --> 0:24:42.719
<v Speaker 2>throw an undrafted rookie out there from the beginning, hoping

0:24:42.800 --> 0:24:46.399
<v Speaker 2>Sutton's time comes. And it's doesn't look like that's a

0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:50.159
<v Speaker 2>successful plan at all, to say the least. I'm not

0:24:50.200 --> 0:24:51.800
<v Speaker 2>even sure if Someton will be in the league next year.

0:24:51.880 --> 0:24:54.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he doesn't run very well. Maybe you'll have

0:24:54.240 --> 0:24:56.120
<v Speaker 2>to be a safety, and is anyone going to do that?

0:24:56.320 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 3>And I'd rather put him at free safety and just

0:24:58.640 --> 0:24:59.720
<v Speaker 3>and then the slot.

0:24:59.720 --> 0:25:01.560
<v Speaker 2>He might even be better at free safety than there's

0:25:01.560 --> 0:25:03.560
<v Speaker 2>a lot at this stage of the game. Yeah, communication

0:25:03.600 --> 0:25:06.120
<v Speaker 2>has been a problem with him. I like it. I'm

0:25:06.119 --> 0:25:10.760
<v Speaker 2>all for it. I would go with Warren as my

0:25:10.800 --> 0:25:13.080
<v Speaker 2>top back. Yeah, I mean, I think that one's the

0:25:13.119 --> 0:25:15.560
<v Speaker 2>low hanging fruit. I just think he's the better player,

0:25:15.680 --> 0:25:19.480
<v Speaker 2>fresher legs, more explosive, better receiver. Now it wouldn't be

0:25:19.480 --> 0:25:21.879
<v Speaker 2>one hundred percent, that's not how that position works, but no,

0:25:22.160 --> 0:25:24.479
<v Speaker 2>it'd be a two to one ratio or seventy five

0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:26.680
<v Speaker 2>to twenty five at the very least sixty forty, which

0:25:26.680 --> 0:25:28.320
<v Speaker 2>is kind of what has been the last couple of

0:25:28.359 --> 0:25:30.480
<v Speaker 2>weeks just because of the way the game script is gone.

0:25:30.600 --> 0:25:32.960
<v Speaker 2>You can dismiss it because they're losing. He's a third

0:25:32.960 --> 0:25:35.040
<v Speaker 2>down back, and there's definitely some of that, but there's

0:25:35.080 --> 0:25:37.600
<v Speaker 2>also been instances where I think on first and ten

0:25:37.680 --> 0:25:40.440
<v Speaker 2>and neutral script, Nage you would have been out there

0:25:40.480 --> 0:25:41.200
<v Speaker 2>and isn't now.

0:25:41.359 --> 0:25:43.919
<v Speaker 3>You know, I did see this though today when I

0:25:44.000 --> 0:25:47.240
<v Speaker 3>was looking at some stuff. Warren didn't run into a

0:25:47.240 --> 0:25:49.040
<v Speaker 3>loaded box once yesterday.

0:25:49.440 --> 0:25:52.439
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't surprise me. I mean that whole is night and.

0:25:52.480 --> 0:25:55.719
<v Speaker 3>Day, whereas Nausea was like ten percent running into an

0:25:55.760 --> 0:25:58.120
<v Speaker 3>eight or nine man box. And that's kind of one

0:25:58.119 --> 0:25:59.960
<v Speaker 3>of the problems that how it's been this whole career

0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:02.560
<v Speaker 3>right now with nause is that when he is out there,

0:26:03.720 --> 0:26:07.840
<v Speaker 3>you're seeing single high and nine guys in the box. Yeah,

0:26:08.200 --> 0:26:10.040
<v Speaker 3>it's just it's just not setting up well for him

0:26:10.040 --> 0:26:11.840
<v Speaker 3>to run the football. I don't even mind putting him

0:26:11.880 --> 0:26:15.280
<v Speaker 3>out there on some third downs and it's third and

0:26:15.359 --> 0:26:17.960
<v Speaker 3>four and they're gonna they're gonna go to their nickel

0:26:18.040 --> 0:26:20.159
<v Speaker 3>or dime I'm gonna run nausey up the.

0:26:20.119 --> 0:26:22.720
<v Speaker 2>Middle because then he could play. He could stand up

0:26:22.760 --> 0:26:24.800
<v Speaker 2>in protection for blitz, or you could dump with him

0:26:24.800 --> 0:26:26.520
<v Speaker 2>on the screen. Yeah, or you know those type of

0:26:26.520 --> 0:26:29.160
<v Speaker 2>things too. Yeah, but I think on more neutral stuff,

0:26:29.160 --> 0:26:31.360
<v Speaker 2>I want more Warren for sure. I just think he's

0:26:31.359 --> 0:26:33.280
<v Speaker 2>a more effective player. Yeah, I think so as well.

0:26:33.560 --> 0:26:35.840
<v Speaker 2>I've always been a massive Warren fan. I don't know

0:26:35.880 --> 0:26:38.359
<v Speaker 2>what his workload threshold is. I don't think any of

0:26:38.440 --> 0:26:40.840
<v Speaker 2>us do, and it's a concern, but I think he's

0:26:40.880 --> 0:26:46.320
<v Speaker 2>your second best skill guy. Yeah, you know, it's your turn.

0:26:46.400 --> 0:26:49.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't really have another. I have some things i'd

0:26:49.280 --> 0:26:51.000
<v Speaker 2>consider or flirt with.

0:26:51.359 --> 0:26:54.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, A lot of it depends on is Joey Porter

0:26:55.080 --> 0:26:57.240
<v Speaker 3>Junior back for the next game or not, and the

0:26:57.280 --> 0:26:59.920
<v Speaker 3>people out there saying Joey Joey Porter Junior doesn't Matt

0:27:00.520 --> 0:27:02.360
<v Speaker 3>oh or he stinks.

0:27:02.680 --> 0:27:06.280
<v Speaker 2>I think it's yeah, right right. I think it's similar

0:27:06.320 --> 0:27:09.439
<v Speaker 2>to Pickens versus the other receivers, I really do. I

0:27:09.440 --> 0:27:13.000
<v Speaker 2>think that Room is one guy in the Pips, you know,

0:27:13.280 --> 0:27:15.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, and that includes Jackson. I've been down on

0:27:15.560 --> 0:27:17.760
<v Speaker 2>Jackson for a while. I mean, I think he's okay,

0:27:18.440 --> 0:27:22.359
<v Speaker 2>but he's better when Porter's out there. Yeah, I forget

0:27:22.400 --> 0:27:24.679
<v Speaker 2>who I was listening to, and I never thought of

0:27:24.720 --> 0:27:31.359
<v Speaker 2>this in my whole life, but certain Gardner Stingley, like,

0:27:31.400 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 2>I think most people consider them the top three corners

0:27:33.840 --> 0:27:35.520
<v Speaker 2>in the league. And I'm gonna say porters quite to

0:27:35.600 --> 0:27:39.399
<v Speaker 2>their level. But all those guys got so much better

0:27:40.080 --> 0:27:45.359
<v Speaker 2>when Reed, the Texans first pick in the second round,

0:27:45.440 --> 0:27:48.600
<v Speaker 2>just played really well. And the dude that comes back

0:27:48.640 --> 0:27:54.360
<v Speaker 2>for Denver like Moss Moss, Oh, I always forget his name,

0:27:54.880 --> 0:27:58.960
<v Speaker 2>But you don't think about second corners influence in number

0:27:59.000 --> 0:28:03.240
<v Speaker 2>one corners. But it is a lot more say than that,

0:28:03.400 --> 0:28:06.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, like if you need your Alvin Harper almost

0:28:06.280 --> 0:28:08.680
<v Speaker 2>you know that to be the stars compliment.

0:28:08.760 --> 0:28:10.600
<v Speaker 3>That's why I don't have a problem with Jackson. He

0:28:10.720 --> 0:28:12.200
<v Speaker 3>just can't be your number one guy.

0:28:12.720 --> 0:28:14.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure if Jackson's good enough to be that

0:28:14.640 --> 0:28:16.679
<v Speaker 2>too that I want, you know, that's all. I think.

0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:19.120
<v Speaker 2>You can do better. Yeah, you can do better there,

0:28:19.160 --> 0:28:22.800
<v Speaker 2>but what him being out is massive.

0:28:23.440 --> 0:28:27.199
<v Speaker 3>If Porter is back, would you consider playing Trice?

0:28:29.040 --> 0:28:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I would. I mean there's something especially in the

0:28:33.000 --> 0:28:37.320
<v Speaker 2>Bengals game. Yeah, Like that's a tough challenge if you

0:28:37.440 --> 0:28:41.560
<v Speaker 2>lose because of them, that's not great. Or if he

0:28:41.600 --> 0:28:43.320
<v Speaker 2>gets beat more than you like, that's not great. But

0:28:43.400 --> 0:28:45.840
<v Speaker 2>you might find something that you might find something out,

0:28:46.040 --> 0:28:48.120
<v Speaker 2>you know. I mean, And that's a little bit of

0:28:48.120 --> 0:28:51.560
<v Speaker 2>the GM and me off season ahead. But I want

0:28:51.560 --> 0:28:54.840
<v Speaker 2>to know everything I can about Trice. I mean, Jackson

0:28:54.840 --> 0:28:57.320
<v Speaker 2>comes back or not. I don't think there's any way

0:28:57.320 --> 0:28:59.600
<v Speaker 2>that they go into camp saying Trice is definitely a starter,

0:29:00.480 --> 0:29:03.640
<v Speaker 2>but it might be Trice versus number two draft pick

0:29:03.840 --> 0:29:05.960
<v Speaker 2>for the starting job or you know what I mean,

0:29:06.000 --> 0:29:09.160
<v Speaker 2>and have a couple more offices more. That's something I

0:29:09.160 --> 0:29:10.760
<v Speaker 2>would consider. That's a good one.

0:29:11.160 --> 0:29:14.240
<v Speaker 3>But now you're moving multiple spots in your secondary.

0:29:14.560 --> 0:29:16.280
<v Speaker 2>But if Porter has to be healthy for that.

0:29:16.960 --> 0:29:18.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Porter has to be healthy.

0:29:18.400 --> 0:29:20.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you know want to experiment with that like

0:29:20.280 --> 0:29:22.600
<v Speaker 2>first round of the playoffs. Yeah, so that would be

0:29:22.840 --> 0:29:25.640
<v Speaker 2>a one time thing and then go from there. And

0:29:25.680 --> 0:29:28.680
<v Speaker 2>if Trice won, I mean I wouldn't I don't know.

0:29:28.760 --> 0:29:30.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't know their practice schedule off the top of

0:29:30.480 --> 0:29:33.240
<v Speaker 2>my head before this weird week, but I would assume

0:29:33.320 --> 0:29:35.880
<v Speaker 2>he'll get a lot of run with the ones. If

0:29:35.920 --> 0:29:39.360
<v Speaker 2>Porter's on has been the first practice he has already,

0:29:39.400 --> 0:29:40.239
<v Speaker 2>now I will say this.

0:29:40.480 --> 0:29:44.640
<v Speaker 3>James Pierre started that game yesterday, and right after giving

0:29:44.720 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 3>up the touchdown to Christian Watson, he got yanked because

0:29:48.520 --> 0:29:50.960
<v Speaker 3>before that play was snapped, he's out there looking around

0:29:51.000 --> 0:29:52.520
<v Speaker 3>like I didn't know where to line up at.

0:29:52.680 --> 0:29:56.280
<v Speaker 2>There were some of that, and Pierre has value elsewhere.

0:29:56.320 --> 0:29:58.760
<v Speaker 2>But to me, Sutton and Pierre don't run well enough.

0:29:59.160 --> 0:30:02.840
<v Speaker 2>You know, like obviously a huge offseason priority. Let's get

0:30:02.840 --> 0:30:05.720
<v Speaker 2>faster on the back seven. Yeah, but maybe your fifth

0:30:05.760 --> 0:30:07.800
<v Speaker 2>corner doesn't fit that bill anymore. You know, that's who

0:30:07.840 --> 0:30:13.280
<v Speaker 2>you're playing with. Yeah, do you have any others? Nothing

0:30:13.400 --> 0:30:15.240
<v Speaker 2>like jumps out off the table.

0:30:15.280 --> 0:30:18.000
<v Speaker 3>I would not use Corderio Patterson as a running back anymore.

0:30:18.480 --> 0:30:20.760
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't either. I definitely would.

0:30:20.600 --> 0:30:23.240
<v Speaker 3>Not, unless unless it's a situation like you saw in

0:30:23.280 --> 0:30:25.920
<v Speaker 3>Baltimore where I'm gonna throw him a pass against a

0:30:25.960 --> 0:30:28.719
<v Speaker 3>five ft ten linebackers.

0:30:28.760 --> 0:30:32.520
<v Speaker 2>He's not getting to carry carries in crucial moments. Ever. Again, probably,

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:36.080
<v Speaker 2>I've been saying for a couple of weeks it's time

0:30:36.120 --> 0:30:40.880
<v Speaker 2>to streamline the skill position players. And that means less Patterson, less,

0:30:40.920 --> 0:30:46.240
<v Speaker 2>prough It less, maybe even Jefferson, you know, you know,

0:30:46.280 --> 0:30:48.040
<v Speaker 2>like if two receivers are out there. I want it

0:30:48.080 --> 0:30:51.400
<v Speaker 2>to be Austin and Pickens. Maybe Scronic would be my

0:30:51.440 --> 0:30:54.080
<v Speaker 2>third if everyone's healthy to I mean, over Jefferson and

0:30:54.120 --> 0:30:56.360
<v Speaker 2>the others, just because he has some nastiness and that

0:30:56.560 --> 0:31:00.640
<v Speaker 2>ord of thing. I'm not even saying yes to these.

0:31:00.680 --> 0:31:03.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying the coaches should at least have a conversation,

0:31:04.040 --> 0:31:07.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, like this is, this is what's happening right

0:31:07.480 --> 0:31:09.120
<v Speaker 2>this week? Hey, what would you guys do? What?

0:31:09.120 --> 0:31:10.480
<v Speaker 3>What changes do you guys want to make?

0:31:10.560 --> 0:31:12.840
<v Speaker 2>If I'm coach, t like, just throw things out there.

0:31:12.880 --> 0:31:15.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to hold it against you. Just throw

0:31:15.240 --> 0:31:18.480
<v Speaker 2>things out. Let's talk about it all. Does Peyton Wilson

0:31:19.880 --> 0:31:24.200
<v Speaker 2>deserve more snaps? I'm not even saying get in the queens?

0:31:25.840 --> 0:31:27.920
<v Speaker 2>But is he ready to be my Patrick? Queen? And

0:31:27.960 --> 0:31:31.360
<v Speaker 2>queen be my Wilson? Seems premature, but I'm just again, I.

0:31:31.360 --> 0:31:33.640
<v Speaker 3>Can't make that change in a week, Just too big

0:31:33.680 --> 0:31:34.320
<v Speaker 3>of a change.

0:31:35.480 --> 0:31:38.720
<v Speaker 2>Healthy fields? Does he get ten snaps every game?

0:31:38.800 --> 0:31:41.080
<v Speaker 3>No matter what, He's got to be healthy first? And

0:31:41.120 --> 0:31:43.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. I mean, he hasn't practiced practice.

0:31:43.160 --> 0:31:46.440
<v Speaker 2>In two weeks, right, I'm running out of ideas though,

0:31:46.480 --> 0:31:47.960
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean, I'm trying to think what

0:31:48.960 --> 0:31:51.160
<v Speaker 2>and frankly, we talked about this in the first hour.

0:31:51.960 --> 0:31:54.760
<v Speaker 2>The changes you see aren't going to be this guy's

0:31:54.800 --> 0:31:56.880
<v Speaker 2>on the bench, this guy got cut right, you know

0:31:56.880 --> 0:31:59.200
<v Speaker 2>what I mean. You're playing with your guys. You might

0:31:59.280 --> 0:32:02.320
<v Speaker 2>change the snapunce a little, or this guy doesn't play

0:32:02.320 --> 0:32:06.160
<v Speaker 2>a nickel anymore, or Minko's your slot. That's a great one,

0:32:06.320 --> 0:32:08.000
<v Speaker 2>but I think a lot of them will be procedural

0:32:08.880 --> 0:32:12.280
<v Speaker 2>or how we call this defense, or when you call

0:32:12.360 --> 0:32:16.080
<v Speaker 2>this sequencing, or maybe hey, Russ, I don't like the

0:32:16.160 --> 0:32:19.040
<v Speaker 2>changes you're making at the line of scrimmage, or we're

0:32:19.040 --> 0:32:21.720
<v Speaker 2>going to really stress getting the ball out in two

0:32:21.720 --> 0:32:25.880
<v Speaker 2>point five or less. Or they have a weird trend

0:32:26.960 --> 0:32:30.520
<v Speaker 2>that I don't love. And I'm an Arthur Smith guy,

0:32:30.680 --> 0:32:33.800
<v Speaker 2>but I think I've really started to pay attention to

0:32:33.840 --> 0:32:37.640
<v Speaker 2>it the last month. When they throw for a first down,

0:32:38.720 --> 0:32:41.320
<v Speaker 2>they almost automatically go to a run on first and

0:32:41.360 --> 0:32:44.280
<v Speaker 2>ten the next play, which I understand why, But these

0:32:44.320 --> 0:32:45.080
<v Speaker 2>teams are smart too.

0:32:45.160 --> 0:32:47.880
<v Speaker 3>They didn't do that against the Bengals. Against the Bengals, right,

0:32:48.200 --> 0:32:52.560
<v Speaker 3>and they have been throwing more on first down and

0:32:52.600 --> 0:32:55.440
<v Speaker 3>they have a strong tendency of complete a pass for

0:32:55.480 --> 0:32:57.560
<v Speaker 3>a first down, all right, because get back to the run.

0:32:57.600 --> 0:32:59.040
<v Speaker 3>But like it's like they put money in the bank

0:32:59.080 --> 0:33:01.520
<v Speaker 3>and they're, you know, living. Here's the thing about that

0:33:01.600 --> 0:33:06.520
<v Speaker 3>game yesterday. They had a sixty nine yard drive. They

0:33:06.560 --> 0:33:10.120
<v Speaker 3>had a seventy two yard drive twenty five yards at

0:33:10.360 --> 0:33:14.720
<v Speaker 3>h and they punted it from midfield, which that play

0:33:15.920 --> 0:33:19.560
<v Speaker 3>Pickens caught that caught the ball along the sideline short,

0:33:19.600 --> 0:33:24.400
<v Speaker 3>a short catch and the guy kind of stood him

0:33:24.440 --> 0:33:26.680
<v Speaker 3>up real quick. But Pickings is twisting around to come

0:33:26.680 --> 0:33:29.719
<v Speaker 3>out of it. The other tackler comes in and knocks

0:33:30.080 --> 0:33:32.280
<v Speaker 3>they would be tackler off of him, and they blew

0:33:32.320 --> 0:33:35.440
<v Speaker 3>the whistle. Yeah, and he's running down the sideline. He

0:33:35.480 --> 0:33:37.560
<v Speaker 3>was not happy about it. It was going to be a touchdown.

0:33:37.600 --> 0:33:39.640
<v Speaker 2>It was going to be a touchdown. Yeap, it was.

0:33:40.160 --> 0:33:41.880
<v Speaker 2>And I don't kill the refs for that.

0:33:42.080 --> 0:33:44.640
<v Speaker 3>They don't blow the whistle when it's a running back

0:33:45.040 --> 0:33:47.080
<v Speaker 3>in those situations. They don't blow the whistle on a

0:33:47.080 --> 0:33:47.880
<v Speaker 3>tush push.

0:33:48.080 --> 0:33:50.400
<v Speaker 2>And they'll allow you to get there on the second halffort. Yeah,

0:33:50.800 --> 0:33:53.040
<v Speaker 2>Like they blew it too quickly on that one. They did.

0:33:53.200 --> 0:33:55.440
<v Speaker 2>They did, and it probably cost Seer's points or at

0:33:55.520 --> 0:33:57.560
<v Speaker 2>least a big, chunky.

0:33:57.360 --> 0:33:58.800
<v Speaker 3>Yard cost him the halftime lead.

0:33:59.000 --> 0:34:01.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, a big one. They would have led a

0:34:01.200 --> 0:34:02.920
<v Speaker 2>halftime in that game that was It would have been

0:34:02.920 --> 0:34:05.440
<v Speaker 2>fourteen thirteen at the half. That was an error. I mean,

0:34:05.480 --> 0:34:09.240
<v Speaker 2>there's no doubt about that. You mentioned the long drives.

0:34:09.680 --> 0:34:11.560
<v Speaker 2>We should have probably brought this up earlier in the

0:34:11.560 --> 0:34:14.400
<v Speaker 2>show the first segment, but gave too many short fields

0:34:14.400 --> 0:34:15.399
<v Speaker 2>against You can't do.

0:34:15.360 --> 0:34:17.920
<v Speaker 3>That, Yeah, and we should have Cordless. Cordless weight Man

0:34:17.960 --> 0:34:21.480
<v Speaker 3>had maybe his worst over all day. Yeah, kicking the ball.

0:34:21.520 --> 0:34:23.960
<v Speaker 3>That first one he kicked was the line drive one

0:34:24.040 --> 0:34:26.560
<v Speaker 3>looked like something I would have came no hangtime. But

0:34:26.600 --> 0:34:29.080
<v Speaker 3>even at that forty seven yards to open the second half,

0:34:29.239 --> 0:34:31.000
<v Speaker 3>they get a field goal out of that. Now they

0:34:31.000 --> 0:34:34.200
<v Speaker 3>had a three and out when they fumbled, then they

0:34:34.239 --> 0:34:36.280
<v Speaker 3>got thirty eight yards, turned the ball over on downs,

0:34:36.719 --> 0:34:38.719
<v Speaker 3>and then eighty five yards on the last one. They

0:34:38.719 --> 0:34:42.319
<v Speaker 3>were moving the ball reasonably, con I mean they it.

0:34:42.400 --> 0:34:44.319
<v Speaker 2>Wasn't three and out, three and out, three out, No,

0:34:44.360 --> 0:34:46.200
<v Speaker 2>not at all. I mean some of that stuff's been better,

0:34:46.200 --> 0:34:48.400
<v Speaker 2>and the running game to me, has been better. So

0:34:48.400 --> 0:34:51.000
<v Speaker 2>it's been a lot of mistakes and you can't make

0:34:51.000 --> 0:34:53.600
<v Speaker 2>the safe since these teams. Yeah, these teams are in

0:34:53.719 --> 0:34:54.280
<v Speaker 2>the sacks.

0:34:54.320 --> 0:34:57.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean, and when I'm looking at this, I'm watching, I.

0:34:57.960 --> 0:34:59.680
<v Speaker 2>Believe Wilson for the sacks more than I do the

0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:00.799
<v Speaker 2>as a whole.

0:35:01.000 --> 0:35:02.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it was a protection problem.

0:35:02.600 --> 0:35:02.920
<v Speaker 2>No.

0:35:03.000 --> 0:35:06.880
<v Speaker 3>I think in some cases, I don't know where the

0:35:06.880 --> 0:35:08.840
<v Speaker 3>prime I don't know who the primary receiver is in

0:35:08.880 --> 0:35:13.200
<v Speaker 3>certain situations. In some of those instances, but the primary

0:35:13.280 --> 0:35:16.560
<v Speaker 3>wasn't open and he didn't have time to get to

0:35:16.600 --> 0:35:19.480
<v Speaker 3>the second that you know, or for whatever reason, was

0:35:19.719 --> 0:35:23.200
<v Speaker 3>looking to get out of the pocket. Kansas City had

0:35:23.200 --> 0:35:24.279
<v Speaker 3>a nice plan against him.

0:35:24.320 --> 0:35:27.920
<v Speaker 2>They did. They did, and their pass rush is good,

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:31.640
<v Speaker 2>but they didn't have Chris Jones, the defense coordinator is tremendous,

0:35:31.960 --> 0:35:34.120
<v Speaker 2>and they did. I think they brought a fair amount

0:35:34.120 --> 0:35:35.239
<v Speaker 2>of pressure in the game too.

0:35:35.520 --> 0:35:38.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he was actually beating if you saw the stats

0:35:38.880 --> 0:35:41.520
<v Speaker 3>at halftime, I think he was Like when they blitzed him,

0:35:41.520 --> 0:35:43.400
<v Speaker 3>he was like four for five for like seventy yards

0:35:44.320 --> 0:35:45.080
<v Speaker 3>against the blitz.

0:35:45.600 --> 0:35:49.439
<v Speaker 2>It was the other times teams are going to rush

0:35:49.520 --> 0:35:53.480
<v Speaker 2>him up the middle, though, I mean, like, yeah, they

0:35:53.560 --> 0:35:56.480
<v Speaker 2>kept harping on the broadcast, like the MA home scrambles

0:35:56.520 --> 0:35:59.359
<v Speaker 2>were always when the B gap would open. I'm dumb

0:35:59.440 --> 0:36:02.120
<v Speaker 2>gone like, but if if EAMs are not going to

0:36:02.200 --> 0:36:03.960
<v Speaker 2>let A and B gaps open, you know that at

0:36:03.960 --> 0:36:06.279
<v Speaker 2>this point. So maybe one of the adjustments that you

0:36:06.400 --> 0:36:08.359
<v Speaker 2>make is to get him on the move more often. Yeah,

0:36:08.400 --> 0:36:10.440
<v Speaker 2>it's a good conversation we had with Merrill. Two was

0:36:11.520 --> 0:36:14.399
<v Speaker 2>he I hate speaking for others like this because I'm

0:36:14.440 --> 0:36:15.960
<v Speaker 2>not going to phrase this one hundred percent right, but

0:36:16.400 --> 0:36:19.800
<v Speaker 2>he doesn't love Wilson sitting in the pocket tapping it

0:36:19.880 --> 0:36:23.240
<v Speaker 2>for three seconds. Yeah, because it's a sight. It encloses

0:36:23.280 --> 0:36:25.560
<v Speaker 2>on you. I mean, it's big bodies, there's trees falling

0:36:25.560 --> 0:36:28.799
<v Speaker 2>around you. But on the other hand, the way Merrill

0:36:28.840 --> 0:36:31.960
<v Speaker 2>phrased it was, but I love when he's play action

0:36:32.080 --> 0:36:35.200
<v Speaker 2>booting or you know, or something quick hitting play action,

0:36:35.880 --> 0:36:38.480
<v Speaker 2>and you need your running game to have some substance

0:36:38.520 --> 0:36:42.040
<v Speaker 2>to run. It's been really a problem. They had the

0:36:42.080 --> 0:36:44.799
<v Speaker 2>running game against Baltimore. Yeah, they ran the ball effectively

0:36:44.840 --> 0:36:47.600
<v Speaker 2>against the Ravens. I think that was my team wide

0:36:47.600 --> 0:36:50.960
<v Speaker 2>biggest concern going into the Baltimore game. Like, I kept

0:36:51.040 --> 0:36:53.200
<v Speaker 2>saying three nine per carry and couldn't cut it. It's

0:36:53.239 --> 0:36:56.000
<v Speaker 2>got to be four to three ish, four to four. Well,

0:36:56.000 --> 0:36:57.920
<v Speaker 2>that's gotten a little better. I mean, I think it

0:36:57.960 --> 0:37:00.480
<v Speaker 2>was like four to seven against the Ravens. Yeah, and

0:37:00.640 --> 0:37:02.920
<v Speaker 2>it was good even before nause He's ripping off runs

0:37:02.960 --> 0:37:05.480
<v Speaker 2>against backups in the end. But it was six point five.

0:37:05.520 --> 0:37:09.320
<v Speaker 3>I mean, Warren was six point five Wilson when.

0:37:09.239 --> 0:37:11.720
<v Speaker 2>He he was like that the way six for fifty

0:37:11.719 --> 0:37:14.640
<v Speaker 2>five runnings helpful. Yeah, you know, I'm just smart.

0:37:14.840 --> 0:37:16.879
<v Speaker 3>You know you're not gonna get the first down.

0:37:17.000 --> 0:37:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, obviously on fumble, but it was.

0:37:19.440 --> 0:37:21.080
<v Speaker 3>Six for fifty five and he had a one yard

0:37:21.080 --> 0:37:23.600
<v Speaker 3>touchdown run. He was getting ten yards of chunk.

0:37:23.760 --> 0:37:25.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Yeah, he was smart about it. Yeah. I mean,

0:37:25.680 --> 0:37:28.520
<v Speaker 2>I think he's more apt to take off him go too.

0:37:29.200 --> 0:37:31.440
<v Speaker 3>So, you know, I think the running game is is

0:37:31.480 --> 0:37:32.840
<v Speaker 3>something that's going to I.

0:37:32.880 --> 0:37:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Think the air was actually pointing up with the running game. Yeah.

0:37:35.640 --> 0:37:38.440
<v Speaker 3>So, but I mean, I think they do need to

0:37:38.440 --> 0:37:40.279
<v Speaker 3>get him, even if it's just a little bit of

0:37:40.320 --> 0:37:42.680
<v Speaker 3>pocket movement, just to get him out away from the

0:37:42.680 --> 0:37:45.200
<v Speaker 3>middle of that pocket, because that's where the problems are coming.

0:37:45.680 --> 0:37:47.200
<v Speaker 2>Spot and it really is a hard time see in

0:37:47.200 --> 0:37:47.799
<v Speaker 2>the middle of the field.

0:37:48.040 --> 0:37:50.399
<v Speaker 3>His his arm is strong enough that you know, even

0:37:50.440 --> 0:37:53.719
<v Speaker 3>if you roll him out a quarter of the way

0:37:53.880 --> 0:37:55.680
<v Speaker 3>he can still make throat to the other side of

0:37:55.680 --> 0:37:56.080
<v Speaker 3>the field.

0:37:56.160 --> 0:37:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean you're.

0:37:58.120 --> 0:38:00.440
<v Speaker 3>Not you're not narrowing things down to just half.

0:38:00.239 --> 0:38:04.040
<v Speaker 2>Its total halfield read or those type of things. I

0:38:04.040 --> 0:38:08.479
<v Speaker 2>don't have any other like wholesale changes. I mean, you'd

0:38:08.520 --> 0:38:10.600
<v Speaker 2>have to be in the building for what we have

0:38:10.640 --> 0:38:13.120
<v Speaker 2>a hard time getting these plays in or this communication

0:38:13.680 --> 0:38:17.040
<v Speaker 2>or man, this guy's not adjusting to this route or whatever.

0:38:17.120 --> 0:38:20.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, really minusia, you know type things you'd have

0:38:20.320 --> 0:38:22.840
<v Speaker 2>to be real detail, not minusia, but like deep in

0:38:22.880 --> 0:38:25.280
<v Speaker 2>the weeds. But I bet some of that stuff's problematic

0:38:25.360 --> 0:38:28.279
<v Speaker 2>right now. And to your earlier point, it's harder to

0:38:28.320 --> 0:38:31.600
<v Speaker 2>work on those finer things. Three games eleven days, right.

0:38:32.440 --> 0:38:34.080
<v Speaker 2>I know this is a problem. I just don't know

0:38:34.120 --> 0:38:36.440
<v Speaker 2>how to get it fixed because I don't make time. Yeah,

0:38:36.760 --> 0:38:39.239
<v Speaker 2>doesn't mean we'll get it fixed, but you at least

0:38:39.600 --> 0:38:42.080
<v Speaker 2>have a better chance of correcting that attacking the problem.

0:38:42.120 --> 0:38:45.480
<v Speaker 3>I saw the frustration there yesterday with they had gotten

0:38:45.520 --> 0:38:47.920
<v Speaker 3>a bunch of guys back on the defensive back end,

0:38:48.600 --> 0:38:51.160
<v Speaker 3>and you're still seeing the communication issues. And I think

0:38:51.160 --> 0:38:53.359
<v Speaker 3>that's where Elliott was going with like, hey, we get

0:38:53.360 --> 0:38:54.319
<v Speaker 3>the same guys out here.

0:38:54.360 --> 0:38:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Now he seemed very frustrated. Yeah, in his job. He

0:38:58.120 --> 0:39:00.200
<v Speaker 2>actually said these are week one and two problems that

0:39:00.200 --> 0:39:04.239
<v Speaker 2>week seventeen. Yeah, yehs got a new dude, right, Yeah,

0:39:04.800 --> 0:39:06.440
<v Speaker 2>guys who played a lot of snaps. Yeah.

0:39:06.480 --> 0:39:09.480
<v Speaker 3>So that's that's where they're at right now. Let's we'll

0:39:09.520 --> 0:39:11.120
<v Speaker 3>see if they got the you know, a full week

0:39:11.160 --> 0:39:14.799
<v Speaker 3>of practice to prepare for the Cincinnati Bengals, prepare for

0:39:14.800 --> 0:39:16.880
<v Speaker 3>the playoffs, and prepare for the playoffs. You got a

0:39:16.880 --> 0:39:18.359
<v Speaker 3>couple of weeks get prepared for that. So you get

0:39:18.400 --> 0:39:19.719
<v Speaker 3>a couple of weeks, you know, if you want to

0:39:19.719 --> 0:39:23.000
<v Speaker 3>make some changes, adjustments, whatever you want to call them,

0:39:23.080 --> 0:39:23.920
<v Speaker 3>you have time to do that.

0:39:24.000 --> 0:39:25.880
<v Speaker 2>I like the make of one a lot. The slot's

0:39:25.880 --> 0:39:26.680
<v Speaker 2>been a bunch.

0:39:26.560 --> 0:39:30.520
<v Speaker 3>Of that's that's to me, should be issue number one

0:39:30.520 --> 0:39:32.279
<v Speaker 3>that get solved. Yeah, And that's the way to say,

0:39:32.280 --> 0:39:35.080
<v Speaker 3>I understand you. You hate having him minky, we got

0:39:35.080 --> 0:39:36.520
<v Speaker 3>a problem here. You got to go there, Manca, we

0:39:36.560 --> 0:39:37.879
<v Speaker 3>have a problem there. You got to go there, which

0:39:37.880 --> 0:39:39.279
<v Speaker 3>is kind of what they've done with him the last

0:39:39.320 --> 0:39:40.000
<v Speaker 3>couple of years.

0:39:40.040 --> 0:39:43.560
<v Speaker 2>But he's a good player that you one of the

0:39:44.239 --> 0:39:46.400
<v Speaker 2>one of, if not the best center field or in

0:39:46.400 --> 0:39:49.279
<v Speaker 2>the league. You know, you don't ask that guy to

0:39:49.320 --> 0:39:53.160
<v Speaker 2>play second base, but sometimes sometimes you have to feel

0:39:53.200 --> 0:39:56.040
<v Speaker 2>on the second baseman, you dude, Yeah right, that's the

0:39:56.080 --> 0:39:56.600
<v Speaker 2>way it goes.

0:39:56.680 --> 0:39:59.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, let's get to a break. He is the Matt Williamson.

0:39:59.600 --> 0:40:01.759
<v Speaker 3>I am Dale Lolly. You're listening to the Drive here

0:40:01.760 --> 0:40:04.359
<v Speaker 3>on the Steelers Audio Network. Matt and I'll be back

0:40:04.360 --> 0:40:06.040
<v Speaker 3>to finish up the show right after this.

0:40:10.560 --> 0:40:11.080
<v Speaker 2>At least.

0:40:11.200 --> 0:40:14.680
<v Speaker 1>He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson on

0:40:14.719 --> 0:40:16.880
<v Speaker 1>your twenty four to seven home of the Black and

0:40:16.960 --> 0:40:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

0:40:24.800 --> 0:40:27.239
<v Speaker 3>And we are back. I am Dale Lolly. He is

0:40:27.640 --> 0:40:31.439
<v Speaker 3>the Matt Williamson and Matt last week, I last week.

0:40:32.200 --> 0:40:33.920
<v Speaker 2>All the days are running together. Could have been two

0:40:34.000 --> 0:40:34.439
<v Speaker 2>days ago.

0:40:34.400 --> 0:40:36.279
<v Speaker 3>Could have been two days ago. I believe it was

0:40:36.360 --> 0:40:40.160
<v Speaker 3>last week. I don't know. But we had the conversation,

0:40:41.480 --> 0:40:43.560
<v Speaker 3>you know what, was before the Houston game because we

0:40:43.560 --> 0:40:46.440
<v Speaker 3>hadn't gotten to see Mahomes play yet. Yeah, and I

0:40:46.480 --> 0:40:49.879
<v Speaker 3>said I would rather face an injured Mahomes or face

0:40:49.920 --> 0:40:53.360
<v Speaker 3>a Yeah, an injured Mahomes than a healthy Carson Wentz.

0:40:53.800 --> 0:40:54.160
<v Speaker 2>Yes.

0:40:54.280 --> 0:40:57.839
<v Speaker 3>Now, as I said when I said that, it would

0:40:57.880 --> 0:41:01.319
<v Speaker 3>depend on how injured Mahomes, was it too bad?

0:41:01.360 --> 0:41:03.600
<v Speaker 2>You didn't look too banged up either one of those games. No.

0:41:03.640 --> 0:41:05.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean he's scrambling, he's getting the Yeah, you know

0:41:05.920 --> 0:41:08.040
<v Speaker 2>they have that metric. You got to fifteen miles an

0:41:08.080 --> 0:41:10.560
<v Speaker 2>hour twice against Houston already, and he's moving fine.

0:41:10.640 --> 0:41:13.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but I took a lot of gruff guph for that,

0:41:13.719 --> 0:41:14.680
<v Speaker 3>and I understand it.

0:41:14.840 --> 0:41:19.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, but bring sometimes you bring stuff up on

0:41:19.520 --> 0:41:21.960
<v Speaker 2>the show to have a conversation. Of course, that's the

0:41:21.960 --> 0:41:26.680
<v Speaker 2>way this works, right, And an injured Mahomes versus a

0:41:26.719 --> 0:41:30.920
<v Speaker 2>healthy former guy guy who was a former good player

0:41:30.960 --> 0:41:33.840
<v Speaker 2>in the running for the MVP Award. It was a conversation.

0:41:34.880 --> 0:41:37.920
<v Speaker 3>I also didn't know how healthy at that time Mahomes was.

0:41:38.160 --> 0:41:41.279
<v Speaker 3>He looks completely healthy right now. Yeah, No, I he

0:41:41.280 --> 0:41:42.600
<v Speaker 3>doesn't feel completely healthy.

0:41:42.640 --> 0:41:44.359
<v Speaker 2>At the time. It looked kind of critical for him,

0:41:44.360 --> 0:41:46.719
<v Speaker 2>you know. Yeah, in terms of most people don't get

0:41:46.800 --> 0:41:50.000
<v Speaker 2>up and walk around a week later, walk around a

0:41:50.040 --> 0:41:52.520
<v Speaker 2>week later after taking the hit that he took. Yeah,

0:41:52.600 --> 0:41:53.920
<v Speaker 2>and he's had a lot of ankle stuff and it

0:41:53.960 --> 0:41:56.400
<v Speaker 2>was dealt with him over the years, but seems to

0:41:56.400 --> 0:41:59.200
<v Speaker 2>be dealing with it quite well. He must spectacular.

0:41:59.480 --> 0:42:04.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he was fantastic and again just diagnosing the mental stuff.

0:42:04.520 --> 0:42:06.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he throws, but the mental stuff was great.

0:42:06.640 --> 0:42:11.640
<v Speaker 3>And was able at times like manipulated cornerbacks or linebackers

0:42:11.719 --> 0:42:15.200
<v Speaker 3>or whoever with his eyes. There were several times where

0:42:15.360 --> 0:42:16.839
<v Speaker 3>it looked like he was going to throw that quick

0:42:16.840 --> 0:42:20.040
<v Speaker 3>screen pass, you know, the quick bubble screen and even

0:42:20.120 --> 0:42:22.640
<v Speaker 3>fake it and t J. Watt would jump in the

0:42:22.640 --> 0:42:24.440
<v Speaker 3>air or whoever was coming in would jump in the

0:42:24.440 --> 0:42:27.600
<v Speaker 3>air and boom, hit the guy in the slant behind him, like.

0:42:28.760 --> 0:42:31.920
<v Speaker 2>Moving safeties with his eyes. Next level stuff, it's next levels.

0:42:31.960 --> 0:42:34.840
<v Speaker 2>It's elite stuff. Yeah, it's rare stuff. Right. He was

0:42:34.880 --> 0:42:37.600
<v Speaker 2>great yesterday. He was great, and that gives them a

0:42:37.680 --> 0:42:39.600
<v Speaker 2>chance to win it at a third one. You know,

0:42:39.680 --> 0:42:42.280
<v Speaker 2>there's no doubt about it. He is a special, special dude.

0:42:42.760 --> 0:42:45.399
<v Speaker 2>And even Kelsey, you know, like he is a move

0:42:45.480 --> 0:42:47.520
<v Speaker 2>like he used to and congrats to him. By the way,

0:42:47.560 --> 0:42:51.000
<v Speaker 2>a thousand catches is awesome and most touchdowns in Chief's

0:42:51.080 --> 0:42:53.200
<v Speaker 2>history in the same day. Good for you. That's awesome.

0:42:53.280 --> 0:42:55.719
<v Speaker 3>You know, it sucks that he passed hinz word.

0:42:55.880 --> 0:42:58.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh Yeahsburgh, Yeah, yeah, I forgot about that part. I

0:42:58.880 --> 0:43:01.080
<v Speaker 2>was thinking more of the Chiefs angle. It all, but

0:43:01.280 --> 0:43:04.360
<v Speaker 2>like he has such a good feel for I know

0:43:04.480 --> 0:43:06.760
<v Speaker 2>this is the zone they're playing. I'm just gonna drift

0:43:06.800 --> 0:43:09.640
<v Speaker 2>ever so slightly that you know, give us help when

0:43:09.680 --> 0:43:13.360
<v Speaker 2>you actually cover him. That's the thing. And that's I

0:43:13.440 --> 0:43:15.600
<v Speaker 2>keep talking about this Meryl conversation because we just had

0:43:15.640 --> 0:43:18.040
<v Speaker 2>it today. He had a real problem with a lot

0:43:18.040 --> 0:43:21.760
<v Speaker 2>of those guys just dropping to their spot as opposed

0:43:21.760 --> 0:43:25.480
<v Speaker 2>to being football players or showing instincts or whatever, because

0:43:26.360 --> 0:43:29.160
<v Speaker 2>no one's better at being football players. Are showing instincts

0:43:29.200 --> 0:43:31.640
<v Speaker 2>than Mahomes of Kelsey. A lot of improv stuff. And

0:43:32.000 --> 0:43:33.759
<v Speaker 2>we know this is cover two and you're supposed to

0:43:33.760 --> 0:43:36.399
<v Speaker 2>go here, but you're more open if you're just two

0:43:36.400 --> 0:43:39.560
<v Speaker 2>steps to the right, you know, and you gotta adjust quick,

0:43:39.719 --> 0:43:42.319
<v Speaker 2>gotta play the game. Yeah, that ball's coming out, Yeah

0:43:42.440 --> 0:43:46.120
<v Speaker 2>it was coming out quickly, unbelievably faster. I you know,

0:43:46.160 --> 0:43:48.200
<v Speaker 2>initially was that makes a tackle problem a lot easier

0:43:48.239 --> 0:43:51.200
<v Speaker 2>for right, So you're going to see that. That's how

0:43:51.200 --> 0:43:53.319
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna play in way, it doesn't matter who they play.

0:43:53.400 --> 0:43:57.239
<v Speaker 2>Ye And again, if the Steelers had Mel Blutt and

0:43:57.280 --> 0:43:59.319
<v Speaker 2>Rod Woodson out there, you'd press those dudes and beat

0:43:59.360 --> 0:44:02.759
<v Speaker 2>them up. But Without Porter, you can't do it. You

0:44:02.920 --> 0:44:05.120
<v Speaker 2>can't do it right. You're really shorthanded. But it's a

0:44:05.120 --> 0:44:06.799
<v Speaker 2>great game plan and that's all they're gonna play.

0:44:06.880 --> 0:44:10.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but one way moving forward to fix that would

0:44:10.719 --> 0:44:13.920
<v Speaker 3>be make it just a lot start yea, with Porter

0:44:14.040 --> 0:44:16.440
<v Speaker 3>out there. Now I can Now I can press some dudes, now,

0:44:16.480 --> 0:44:18.480
<v Speaker 3>I can, you know, get up in some passing lanes

0:44:18.520 --> 0:44:19.480
<v Speaker 3>and do some stuff.

0:44:19.520 --> 0:44:21.120
<v Speaker 2>And some things we haven't seen a ton of too.

0:44:21.320 --> 0:44:24.360
<v Speaker 2>Is they've been really successful over the years. Those corner

0:44:24.400 --> 0:44:27.080
<v Speaker 2>blitzeres get home quick. I mean not two point one

0:44:27.120 --> 0:44:30.439
<v Speaker 2>seconds quick. But you know, Hilton used to get im

0:44:30.440 --> 0:44:33.640
<v Speaker 2>media pressure a lot. Sometimes you'd run into a tackle

0:44:33.680 --> 0:44:37.080
<v Speaker 2>and not get home. But let's let's make out of this.

0:44:37.080 --> 0:44:40.640
<v Speaker 3>Lot even a game even some you know, linebacker Blitzer

0:44:40.760 --> 0:44:42.480
<v Speaker 3>up the middle and things of that nature. I know

0:44:42.640 --> 0:44:44.480
<v Speaker 3>their interior line is good.

0:44:44.320 --> 0:44:46.560
<v Speaker 2>But sure, sure you got to mix it up. You

0:44:46.600 --> 0:44:48.160
<v Speaker 2>got to mix it up, and you gotta you gotta

0:44:48.600 --> 0:44:51.400
<v Speaker 2>make them. I even think about games going forward, you know,

0:44:51.440 --> 0:44:53.279
<v Speaker 2>more so than what you just dealt with.

0:44:53.440 --> 0:44:57.520
<v Speaker 3>Is well things stand up now as things currently sit.

0:44:58.840 --> 0:45:02.320
<v Speaker 3>If the Steelers would play the Texans in the opening

0:45:02.400 --> 0:45:05.200
<v Speaker 3>round of the playoffs, the winner of that game would

0:45:05.280 --> 0:45:10.080
<v Speaker 3>go to Kansas City, right, Kansas City, So you might

0:45:10.120 --> 0:45:12.640
<v Speaker 3>have to deal with that again. I'm pretty quickly. And

0:45:12.719 --> 0:45:14.560
<v Speaker 3>so you learned some lessons in that game yesterday.

0:45:14.600 --> 0:45:15.359
<v Speaker 2>That's what you're hoping for.

0:45:15.440 --> 0:45:17.640
<v Speaker 3>That's what you want. That's what Steeler fans should want.

0:45:18.080 --> 0:45:19.880
<v Speaker 3>You want the rematch with the Chiefs. It may not

0:45:19.920 --> 0:45:22.080
<v Speaker 3>be the most appealing thing in the world, but you

0:45:22.239 --> 0:45:22.919
<v Speaker 3>just played them.

0:45:23.000 --> 0:45:24.839
<v Speaker 2>No one's going to give you a playoff wins left

0:45:24.880 --> 0:45:30.200
<v Speaker 2>and right. No, it's you get a playoff playoff them right,

0:45:30.400 --> 0:45:32.600
<v Speaker 2>start with number one. Yeah, get the first one and

0:45:32.640 --> 0:45:35.120
<v Speaker 2>then go from there. Yeah. And that seems like a

0:45:35.200 --> 0:45:37.400
<v Speaker 2>way is a way too, and it is good.

0:45:38.080 --> 0:45:39.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but you get some time in between that to

0:45:39.840 --> 0:45:42.799
<v Speaker 3>fix some stuff and we'll see what the Steelers come

0:45:42.840 --> 0:45:45.560
<v Speaker 3>out of their little mini buy with when they come

0:45:45.600 --> 0:45:47.920
<v Speaker 3>back next week. But that's going to do it for
