1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up, 2 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: Straight Fire Fan, It's me Jason McIntyre Street Fire for Friday, January. 3 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 1: It was a great night in college basketball last night. 4 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,080 Speaker 1: I know you guys are tuning into college hoops in January, 5 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 1: right or is that a February thing post Super Bowl 6 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: to get ready for March um. Obviously, we have a 7 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: great guest today, former NFL quarterback while bets bets at 8 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 1: the end of the podcast, tough weekend in the NFL. 9 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: Lines are tight, barely any movement. But I have several 10 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: plays I think you will like a couple of props. 11 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a good one. But in all seriousness, 12 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: college hoops last night, So Arkansas, which is a pretty 13 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: damn good team lost Xavier Xavier sorry ignited Xavier Xavier. 14 00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: Top ten team lost, Connecticut, top fifteen team lost TCU, 15 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: who I have futures on to win the natty A 16 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 1: national title. They went down to w v JMU, down 17 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: fifteen in the second half, comes back forces over time wins. 18 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: I know you don't care about JMU, but the Big 19 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: One and I have a personal connection. Loyola Merry Mount 20 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: snapped Gonzaga's home winning streak at seventy five games unbelievable. 21 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: Gonzaga lost toy Loyola Mary Mountain. L m U is 22 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: a college out here in California. Obviously everybody remembers bow 23 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: Kimball and Hank Gathers. Hank Gathers passed away on the court. 24 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: They had a couple well, definitely one NCA tourna don't 25 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: Learn run that was memorable, and then another one. I 26 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: believe this is way back in the like the nineties 27 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: with Kimball and Gathers, but Loyala Merriman hasn't really done 28 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: anything in the longest time. And their head coach I 29 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: have a personal connection with because my son, who is 30 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: sixth grader, played club ball with the son the l 31 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: m U coach, Stan Johnson, and I got to, you know, 32 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: went to support a man's talk to stand. Nice guy, 33 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 1: you know, seems like he is, you know, very committed 34 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: to doing some big things at l m U, which 35 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: hasn't been done in a while. And to get this 36 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: win in Spokane game home winning streak is toast because 37 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: that is just not as dominant as they were last year, 38 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: but still an incredible win for UM lm U stan 39 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: Stan Johnson. Great win. And now I've said too much 40 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: about college hoops because it's January and I have to 41 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: get back to football. So in all seriousness, there's just 42 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: not a lot of line movement in the games this weekend. 43 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: Like it's tight. This is you know, week thirteen. You 44 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: know you've got sixteen games, and you know you can 45 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: find some edges four games. It's very, very difficult to 46 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: find some stuff. Um, but I do have some bets 47 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 1: I think you guys may like if you haven't laid 48 00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: any I don't hate small long shot anyline dog parlays 49 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: on Giants, Cowboys, Bengals, Like, that's not bad, that's not terrible. 50 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 1: Bet Listen, chances of it hitting are very slim, but 51 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: why not, you know, I mean, if you have futures 52 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: on the Niners like I do, sure take a take 53 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: a chance on on some of these long shot bets. Um. 54 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: In regards to the NFL, some big moments happened Thursday, 55 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: so essentially o c is around the league are getting canned. 56 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 1: Early Thursday, Byron Leftwich gets dusted by Todd Bowles. No 57 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: surprise there. Greg Roman steps down with a year left 58 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: on his deal. From his OC position in Baltimore. Now 59 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: I know there's a lot of speculation that, oh, well, 60 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: this must be Lamar's gone. I don't necessarily know. A 61 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: bunch of guys send me tweets. Yes, I read them 62 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: that Lamar was liking tweets about how they're gonna go 63 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: away from Greg Roman's pistol ish run, heavy offense and 64 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: they're gonna go more pro style, which apparently Lamar ran 65 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: at at louis Ville, and he's cited to pivot away 66 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: from what Baltimore has been doing, because it seems like 67 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: the league has caught up. But at the same time, 68 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: defensive coordinators were getting fired. Now an old Belichick guy 69 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: floreses guy boy or the d C in Miami he 70 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: got fired, No surprise there. McDaniel is definitely gonna one 71 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: of his own guy. And then late Thursday at Donnitel, 72 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 1: the Vikings DC gets fired after my gosh, Daniel Jones 73 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: embarrassed him twice. Not a big surprise. Now, there's not 74 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,799 Speaker 1: a lot of talent on the Vikings defense. Dolphins defense 75 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: has talent. They had a ton of injuries, but this 76 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: is like a They kept Boyer because he was with 77 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: the Flores um staff. They kept him because he was 78 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: presumably good, and then of course he was not good 79 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: at all this year and McDaniel easy to can them. 80 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: But there's so many coaching openings, offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, 81 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: head coach, nothing settled whatsoever, which is exciting. I think 82 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: my guess is here in the next two weeks at 83 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: a ramp up once teams are eliminated. This week. If 84 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: the Cowboys go down, Dan Quinn and Kelly Moore will 85 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 1: be interviewing probably many places. If the Giants go down, 86 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: I think Kafka probably is going to get something. I 87 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: think if the Eagles go down, would not be surprised 88 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: at all if some of the guys on the Philly 89 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: staff were poached. Gannon has been pretty darn good. Um. 90 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think San Francisco, Damiko Ryan's if they 91 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: get upset. Like a lot of guys coaching this weekend, 92 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: have a lot of options coming out of divisional weekend. Um, 93 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: all right, let's get to our guest. He's a former 94 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: NFL quarterback J. T. O'Sullivan. You may remember the name, 95 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: played a lot with the Niners, played with a bunch 96 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: of other teams, and in a smart move. He has 97 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: decided to start something called the Quarterback School. It's on YouTube. 98 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: He breaks down quarterbacks. I think you're gonna want to 99 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: you're the Dak Prescott breakdown, which is super interesting, but 100 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: also Tom Brady, you know any quarterback that you can 101 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: think of, he's broken down. It's really good stuff, insightful. 102 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: Enjoy the interview. J T. O. Sullivan. Jason likes to 103 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: think he knows everything when it comes to sports. I 104 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,239 Speaker 1: know what sports stands want, but for everything he doesn't. 105 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: He knows a guy who does. Let's just say I 106 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: know a guy who knows a guy he knows another guy. 107 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: All right, let's welcome into straight fire. A former NFL quarterback. 108 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: He probably played for your favorite team. He played for 109 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: a lot of teams in the NFL. Uh Saints, early Patriots, 110 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: forty Niners, Lions. Now he is breaking down quarterbacks on YouTube, 111 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: which is pretty much a genius idea, The QB School. 112 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: J T. O. Sullivan, j T. How you doing man? 113 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: Jason fired up already for a little straight fire. I 114 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: like it very excited. Um listen, I don't even know 115 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: where to begin with these NFL divisional round playoffs. I'm 116 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: on a show with Colin calhern and we ranked the quarterbacks. 117 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: This weekend we ranked the coaches. But you're actually watching 118 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: like every play of these quarterbacks. The guy I want 119 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: to start with, and we'll touch on some of them 120 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: as well as quarterbacks were not left in the playoffs 121 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: is Josh Allen because j T I don't know what 122 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: the hell is wrong with this guy. Maybe we can 123 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,119 Speaker 1: blame the elbow injury. Maybe we can say, hey, there's 124 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: no Brian Dable anymore. He's a little reckless the red 125 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: zone interceptions, and last week against Miami, it just didn't 126 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: look like the Josh Allen who came into the season 127 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: as the m v P favorite. Can you explain what 128 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: might be happening with Josh Allen? I think you're on 129 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: it on there on a and there are a number 130 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: of different variables into it. I think the other part 131 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: that you didn't mention that I think of is at 132 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: the end of last year, really for the last maybe 133 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: month plus of the last season in playoffs, he was 134 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: playing at essentially another worldly level, Like he wasn't missing 135 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: any throw, every throw was on time, in rhythm, he 136 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: was creating place. So it's set this almost like artificial 137 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: unsustainable ceiling. So that's the first part. Then you have 138 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: all the change, then you have some injuries, then you 139 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: have what I would probably say is not as good 140 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: of a consistent perimeter that he's playing with as well. 141 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: And so all of those things have made it seem 142 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: like when you turn on the film, he's forcing things. 143 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: You know, things aren't as clean as maybe they were 144 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: last year. And and I don't think he's playing quite 145 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: as well as far as his consistency of his ball control, 146 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: his accuracy, those things that we saw such a huge 147 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: jump in from his game early on. Do you say 148 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: perimeter does that mean Gabe Davis, I mean like any 149 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: eligible so anything, it's just my kind of like jargon 150 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: for being able to say when they're his weapons on 151 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: the outside, when you look across the landscape of the league, 152 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: and maybe some other quarterbacks that are playing at a 153 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: really high level maybe aren't comprehensively as good as they were, 154 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 1: and or as some other guys who are playing at 155 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: a high level. Interesting um, Now, the end of the 156 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: year's stuff is interesting because if memory serves, his game 157 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 1: against the Chiefs was like one of the great quarterback 158 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: performances ever in a loss like he was unbelievable. And 159 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: I think in the playoffs, what do you have like 160 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: seven touchdowns? No interesting, maybe they didn't punt something I 161 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: don't remember exactly, But do you think that that's an 162 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: interesting point, that maybe it's set the stage for some 163 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: unrealistic expectations. Well, yeah, I mean, well, I just think 164 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: it's hard to sustain that level of play for anyone. 165 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: I mean when you go back, when you really go 166 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 1: back and look at the film, he's really not missing 167 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: throw so like even in completions were throwaways or drops 168 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: or things that you know there were, just when you 169 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 1: turn on the film and there aren't misss. Not only 170 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: are there not misrs, but there there there's everything is 171 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: right where he wants it to be. It's the ball control, 172 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: the consistency, the off platform, the creativity, all those things 173 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: layer together and now all of a sudden you're like, 174 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: you know, I think of almost like the Joe Flacco 175 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 1: Super Bowl run, where things just like lineup where you're like, man, 176 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: there's no way you know Joe Flacco is Joe Flacco. 177 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: But that run was special and so acknowledging that run 178 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 1: last year in the playoffs for Josh Allen has kind 179 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 1: of the high of the high so far and not 180 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: necessarily aspiring to be there all the time, but realizing 181 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: that's where he can be. And if he gets there, 182 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 1: you know, the Buffalo Bills have got a great opportunity 183 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: to win this whole thing. I had never really thought 184 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: of it that way. So, Eli Manning was never a 185 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: top three quarterback in the league. He I don't even 186 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:27,959 Speaker 1: know if he was like an All Pro ever, I 187 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: don't think he was. But twice he had playoff runs 188 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: that were borderline miraculous, including beating Belichick and Brady and 189 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: the undefeated team in the Super Bowl. Hell, he beat 190 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: Belichick twice. We've seen Nick Foles have a crazy postseason run. 191 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: How does that kind of thing happen? Just lightning in 192 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: a bottle for four games? Yeah, I mean, I think 193 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: those guys are also really good quarterbacks first of all. 194 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: You know, I think that. Yeah, when you when you 195 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: do have the capacity to kind of back to back 196 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 1: multiple really good performances, there is something special. Whether it's 197 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: in the building, whether it's your connection with your players, 198 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: you're playing with the offensive line, the entire team to 199 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: give you those opportunities, all those things have to line 200 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 1: up but then for me, you know, I would probably 201 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: put Josh Allen maybe a little bit last year above 202 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: those guys as far as just a quarterback performance, just 203 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: because what he does unicorn wise, as far as with 204 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: his legs in the running game to play creativity, and 205 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: I really think he did it for more than just 206 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I think everybody thinks of all that Chief's 207 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: game was crazy if he would have got the ball, 208 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: all that types of stuff. Well, in reality, it was 209 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: probably the six seven, eight weeks before that he was 210 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: playing at that type of level, just nobody noticed, and 211 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: everybody notices in the playoffs, and so it's those types 212 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: of runs. But I don't know. I mean, if if 213 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: I knew the formula, I'd be making a lot of 214 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: money for being able to do that for guys at 215 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: this time of year. Uh. Well, did to kind of 216 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: stick with Josh Allen. Uh he loses Brian Dable. Brian 217 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: Dable goes to the Giants to stry to salvage Daniel Jones, 218 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: who for three years was very reckless with the football, 219 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: turnover prone, and all of a sudden this year with 220 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: Brian Dable, we see smart Daniel Jones. Now he's like oh, 221 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 1: maybe you could talk. I mean, last year, Giants fans 222 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: couldn't get rid of him quick enough. Now it's like, well, yeah, 223 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: he's definitely worth a three year deal or maybe a 224 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: franchise tag. And the I thought that the smartest play 225 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: I saw Daniel Jones make was late in the game. 226 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: They were milking clock and instead of throw it out 227 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: of bounds to kill the clock, he just like took 228 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: eleven yard sack I think, or eight yard sack whatever 229 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: it was late in the game, and I was like, Damn, 230 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 1: that's a new Daniel Jones. That's the Brian Dable impact. 231 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 1: Do you think Dable is that much of a quarterback 232 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,959 Speaker 1: whisper that he could have an impact that quickly on 233 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. You know, I don't know if I necessarily 234 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 1: think of him as that much of a quarterback whisper. 235 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 1: I think I was with Dable for like a hot 236 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: second when I was in New England. Okay, not that 237 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: there would be much correlation between that and what he 238 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: is now, but from a distance from the outside looking in, 239 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: I think he as well as damn near anybody in 240 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,479 Speaker 1: the league does a great job of putting their quarterbacks 241 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: in a situation to be successful. So what do they 242 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: do well? You know, I think Dable is when I 243 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: think of Dable as a play caller and offense of architect, 244 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 1: it's a lot of crossers, there's some play action, there's 245 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: some quarterback run game, and I think that there's some 246 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: carryover in those elements to what we've seen from Josh 247 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: Allen and from Daniel Jones. You know, I think Daniel 248 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: Jones kind of gets slept on a little bit for 249 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: the athlete that he is. I think he's a better 250 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: athlete than probably people think who don't watch him consistently. 251 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: He has the ability to run, He's got the ability 252 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 1: to get downhill a little bit, and in today's NFL 253 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: that's a weapon that you see used damn near across 254 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: the league for almost everyone. And so when I think 255 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: they've been a little bit more strategic and how they're 256 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: using him, how they're asking him to run, and he's 257 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 1: doing what you mentioned as far as being smarter with 258 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 1: the ball, you know that he had he basically gave 259 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: them an opportunity to ice that thing at the end. 260 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: Besides for that drop, I mean, he was really critical 261 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: crucial timely football at a high level and It's been 262 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: fun to see him kind of come into his own 263 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: a little bit there. And interesting you mentioned day Bowl 264 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: and Crossers. I think the icing was on a crosser. 265 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: It was Slaton maybe who dropped it. I mean, he's 266 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 1: wide open Jones. Jones put it right on him. So, uh, 267 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: that's an interesting point. You know, they don't call him 268 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: Vanilla Vick for nothing. Um, you know, I don't know 269 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: what what do you do though with Daniel Jones, Like, 270 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: we have a three year body of work as him 271 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 1: as a below average quarterback, maybe significantly, and now one 272 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: year with Dayboll, Like it's interesting. I don't know. Do 273 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: you think if Dave Boll goes to the GM and says, hey, 274 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: you know, we've maxed out Daniel Jones. This is the 275 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: best we can get. Let's go get Derek Carr and 276 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: turn him into a superstar, or let's go get Jimmy Garoppolo. 277 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,119 Speaker 1: Any guests as to what Dable may do this offseason, 278 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: I don't have a guess what they'll do. I can 279 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: tell you that what I would do, and kind of 280 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: you know, there's probably a reason that I'm on YouTube 281 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: and not in an NFL front office, but I personally 282 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: am a big yet I personally am a big fan of, 283 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: you know, taking advantage of what Ricky con Rocky quarterback 284 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: contracts allow a roster to do. And so if you 285 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: look across the landscape of the you know, guys coming 286 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: out and someone falls to you that there's an opportunity 287 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: for that person to be someone who can come out 288 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: and play, I think that they have to explore that option. 289 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: You know. I think I'm less excited about bringing in 290 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: an established, you know, veteran guy on the market who's 291 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: gonna come in and give you anything more than what 292 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones has given us this year. I think I 293 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: think it can be both and get a little muddy 294 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: in those situations. But I'm always looking to add talent 295 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: at the quarterback position, specifically through the draft. Okay, let's 296 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: go away, non mobile quarterback Tom Brady. It's funny everybody 297 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: after the lost Monday Night. Oh Tom Brady's washed, it's over. 298 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: You don't want him. And I look at whether it's 299 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: Football Outsiders, pro Football Focus, you look at the grades 300 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: he was, you know, above average quarterbacks somewhere in that 301 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: like twelve to sixteen range this year. Um, I don't know, 302 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: are you seeing washed. No. Not. I mean I'm seeing 303 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 1: the same Tom Brady we've seen, you know, just a 304 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: few less touchdown passes and everyone freaks out. You know, 305 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: now people are getting fired because of it, and you 306 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: know it's, uh, the perception versus the reality of the film. Now, 307 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: is he the exact same quarterback that he was ten 308 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: years ago? No? I would probably leaned towards no. And 309 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: the only thing, and this is a recency bias, my 310 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: own acknowledging my own bias here. You turn on that 311 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: playoff game and it looks like the hits all of 312 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: a sudden are impacting the play. And I don't think 313 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: that's been the case in his career at any point 314 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: where you would say, man, he looks like he doesn't 315 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: want to get hit. Not sure. I can think of 316 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, you know, where they're just teeing off 317 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: on him and nobody wants to get hit, right, That's 318 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: kind of a stupid thing to even assume that people 319 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: want to get hit. But it never seemed to impact 320 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: his play like it has impacted his play a little 321 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: bit this year, and that can be a combination of 322 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: you know, the disaster health issues that they had on 323 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: that offensive line and what they were able to do 324 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: or not do in the run game and with that scheme. 325 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: But Tom Brady the player, you know, I don't think 326 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: there are a whole lot of teams that are looking 327 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: for quarterbacks that wouldn't love Tom Brady for the next 328 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: couple of years. Now, So does that mean like he 329 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: he should strongly consider how the offensive line is because 330 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: I've lined him up for Vegas for about a month now. Um, 331 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: I look at their offensive line not great at all. 332 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's part of it. I don't 333 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: know how you could ever think, you know, hey, I'm 334 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,360 Speaker 1: gonna take the best offense. I'm gonna go to Philly 335 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 1: and have the best offensive line available. Well, if they 336 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: all get hurt, nobody has the best offensive line, you know. 337 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 1: And I don't think Tom's gonna necessarily evaluate the seventh 338 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 1: guy on the offensive line depth chart to see what 339 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: their depth looks like. You know. Those those types of 340 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: things probably play a small variable, but not something that 341 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 1: would make your decision. I think that it's more about 342 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: is there an op is there? Does there seem like 343 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: there's a real opportunity to win a championship? Are there 344 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: resources available to invest in the apparatus that is me 345 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: that Tom Brady that comes and I want this player, 346 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 1: I want potentially this type of system. We're going to 347 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: have this kind of input because I think when you know, 348 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: you see the news that Byron left, which is getting fired, 349 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: those types of things to me, that that's essentially saying, hey, 350 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: the way that we had our offense structured for Tom 351 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 1: Brady is no longer going to work here, Like We're 352 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: not going to do that, and so someone has to 353 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: be willing to at least have significant buying from him 354 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: saying hey, I like this, I want I want to 355 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: see like more of this. You know, you get a 356 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, You're not gonna do a lot of naked 357 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 1: is a lot of keepers, a lot of move the 358 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 1: launch point in the quarterback, You're just not And so 359 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: if that's your game, you know, you know, I don't. 360 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: I think that there are sometimes some organizations and schemes 361 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: that they just won't be able to have that sort 362 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: of marriage.

McCarthy 367 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: is with Dallas. He was supposedly on the hot seat. 368 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: Now he's fine. He probably coached one of his best 369 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 1: games of the season against Tampa. But how much how 370 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: can like an outsider view that game? What the game 371 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: that Kellen Moore called offensively versus what you know McCarthy 372 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: is the head coach. Dak had I think five total touchdowns. 373 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: How do we decipher, Hey, Kellen Moore had the best 374 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: game of the season, or is it Mike McCarthy just 375 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: put Todd bowls in a body bag. I think that 376 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: there are elements of all of that, you know. I 377 00:18:58,119 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: think the part that jumps off the film when you 378 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: turn on the film, I think I was most impressed 379 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: with Dak back bouncing back, you know, I thought he 380 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 1: really struggled the week before. I thought he was able 381 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 1: to come in when it really mattered on the road. 382 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: You know, Yes, Tampa Bay is probably in my opinion, 383 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: down and or a little bit depleted on multiple layers. 384 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 1: But they went out there on the road and they 385 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: made a dominant performance, and he played Dack played super 386 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: efficient and was really decisive, and it was a clean game. 387 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: And nothing felt muddy or hurried or kind of you 388 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: know that that kind of Sometimes I feel like if 389 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: it's not clean and it's not decisive, it can get 390 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: ugly quickly. And so for me with Dak, it's can 391 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 1: he be consistent with his ball control? Can he be decisive? 392 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: Can you get the ball out on time in rhythm consistently? 393 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: And can he do what he does best in my opinion, 394 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: which is create, get outside the pocket a little bit, 395 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: get downhill and run it, scramble it. All the things 396 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: that he's going to have to do to be able 397 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: to make this sind close in San Francisco. He was 398 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: at his best in Tampa. So you just need to 399 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,439 Speaker 1: catch run and make that consistent performance. As someone who 400 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: watches a lot of tape, I went back and looked at, 401 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 1: you know, the condensed version on YouTube of Niners Cowboys 402 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: last year, and again it's not even you can't say 403 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: you watched a lot of tape and then say you 404 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: went back. No, I'm saying you. I was saying, you're 405 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: someone who watches a lot of tape. I don't. I 406 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: watched the condensed version on YouTube. So but that's what 407 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: I want to ask, like when I looked at the 408 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: condensed version on YouTube of that game, I'm like, jeez, Dek, 409 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: he didn't look great. They had less than two hundred 410 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: yards of offense with like ten minutes left in the game. 411 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: Can Dak do the getting outside the pocket stuff against 412 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: this front seven, which is arguably the best in the league. Yeah, 413 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: So that's a perfect segue for me because I literally 414 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: just got done watching that film and last year's game, 415 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: last year's Super Wild Card with Dalla at Dallas with 416 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: San Francisco, and so for me, what jumped off the 417 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: film was they were always behind the sticks. It was sloppy, 418 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: there were penalties, felt like everything was really really tough. 419 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: They never got the running game going at all. Not 420 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: they not that they couldn't run it. They almost felt 421 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: like you couldn't call running place because it's second and long, 422 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: it's first and forever. So they had all sorts of 423 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 1: penalties and really sloppy football. And I think Doc when 424 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: they could get it going, not only did they have 425 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: some short fields because of some some issues later in 426 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: the game, but when he got outside the pocket, so 427 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: that was that that there was a big play early 428 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: in the game where he got outside the pocket and 429 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 1: there was a holding call. Well that's just a backbreaker. 430 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: You get outside the pocket, you create, you rip, a 431 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: big chunk comes back for a tackle in the backfield. 432 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: Well that's what I felt like. They didn't have a 433 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: great plan for it early. They didn't. They were able 434 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: to get pressure on Doc. They were able to kind 435 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: of cause issues up front. We had false starts, we 436 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: had people moving. It felt like they were overwhelmed up front. 437 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 1: So if they can not necessarily win up front, if 438 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: you can just neutralize that front and kind of give 439 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: yourself kind of a stalemate, I think then potentially you 440 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,439 Speaker 1: can move the ball a little bit and make this 441 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: thing closer and then have a chance at the end. 442 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: So all these penalties, and again it's not in the 443 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: YouTube version. They don't show penalties, they just show highlights. Um, 444 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 1: what was that? Was that because the forty Niners defense 445 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: is so good or was it just a very sloppy, 446 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: pathetic game from the Dallas off I think it's both, 447 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: you know, I think, off the top of my head, 448 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 1: I think Bosa ended up getting hurt in that game. 449 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: I don't remember him playing the second half. Maybe I 450 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: could be totally off. I don't remember him on the 451 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: film playing the second half, and so you know, there 452 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,959 Speaker 1: were opportunities for them, especially later in the game, and 453 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm not sure those same opportunities will be there this Sunday. 454 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: I think are probably better defensively this year. But I 455 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: wanted I was just curious, naturally, hey can DA go 456 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: out there and create versus this defense? What were they 457 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: doing scheme wise that was giving them so much issues 458 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 1: for me? If they could hook things up outside the numbers, 459 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: you know, one on one, you had it all day. 460 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: They just couldn't do it, you know, And so I 461 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: don't necessarily think of Dak in that world that's saying, 462 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: hey just go rip a comeback outside, go rip a 463 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: hinge rout outside the numbers consistently down the field, and 464 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: I think are basically saying, hey, we don't think you 465 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: can do it either, so good luck trying to do it. 466 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: And if you go, you know, two for seven, well 467 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: then good, you know, nice day at the plate. But 468 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: that's not going to work in the NFL. And so 469 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: those types of things, what are they willing to give us? 470 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: What can we take? But I just want to see. 471 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: I think DA's plan is best when he's creative, when 472 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: he's able to get outside and scramble a little bit, 473 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: put pressure on the defense downhill, and I'm not sure 474 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: he's going to be able to do that. Verse this 475 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 1: forty nine in front, I like that exits and knows 476 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: because I look at the box score and I I'll 477 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: never forget it. Ceedee, Lamb had one catch for twenty 478 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: one yards. And on the outside they had Cooper last year, 479 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: and I was it Noah Brown or Gallup? I I forget. 480 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 1: But bottom line that you're saying there was stuff open 481 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 1: on the outside. Do you think Dallas moves Lamb outside 482 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: or do they have him in the slot where he 483 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: was really really good last year but did nothing against 484 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: sand France. Well, I mean, I don't know what you 485 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: do with him. I think you do your best. I 486 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 1: thought just why in the film, and I'm not a 487 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: Cowboys X S and O scheme guy, you know, I'm 488 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: watching it from you know, a year ago, and just 489 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: kind of the things that jumped off the film for 490 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: me were it's a it was a staticky offense, meaning 491 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 1: there weren't a whole lot of shifts or motions to 492 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: create any sort of advantage anywhere. And then they had 493 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: a bunch of I don't and forgive me if they 494 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: do this all the time, but they had a bunch 495 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 1: of offensive lineman in the backfield last year, like they 496 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,919 Speaker 1: had guards playing fullback, and there was just a it 497 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: felt like a trick hum dick hum type of a 498 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 1: high school Harry look that I just don't think you 499 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,679 Speaker 1: win consistently in the NFL playoffs, and so you know 500 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: that type of stuff. You know, I'm all for trick plays. 501 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 1: You know, I'm last in that game. You know, there 502 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: was a third and long where they kind of tried 503 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: like a across the field lateral that the guy threw 504 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 1: out of bounds, Like it was just it felt forced, 505 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: and so I would if I'm Mike McCarthy, I'm saying, hey, 506 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: we need to take it to these cats at the 507 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. We have to exert our will to 508 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: run the rock and win at the line of scrimmage 509 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 1: and past protection to Again, it doesn't have to be 510 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: every play, but you can't have negative plays. We can't 511 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: be going backwards consistently because we're just not dynamic enough 512 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 1: and good enough to keep up with this NFL offense. 513 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 1: Or at the San Francisco's offense if they're not doing that, 514 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask. One of the best matchups is 515 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: two guys who were on staff in Atlanta, um Shanahan 516 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,959 Speaker 1: versus Quinn. And I looked at San Francisco last year 517 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: in that game, I mean, j T they they I 518 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 1: think they rushed for a buck seventy. You know, Garoppolo 519 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: wasn't particularly good, so you ran for a buck seventy. 520 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: And now, oh, by the way, you add Christian McCaffrey 521 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: to this offense, like does Dan quinn? Is there any 522 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: way to slow these guys down? And I guess then 523 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 1: it falls on brock Purty, who I don't I don't 524 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: know what the film saying about him, but guys playing 525 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: pretty damn good. Yeah, I mean it's it's it's almost 526 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 1: beyond amazing how well he's coming and played. I mean, 527 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: if we're being honest with ourselves, Uh, I think the 528 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,360 Speaker 1: things that you hope for if you're the Cowboys defense, 529 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: is you hope that you stay in your lane. As 530 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: far as getting timely turnovers. Now, it's easy to say 531 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: that it's another to be able to create turnovers when 532 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: you need turnovers and the and brock Purty has proven 533 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 1: that he hasn't turned the ball over as much as 534 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: you would have thought for a guy coming into a situation. Now, 535 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: has it always been perfect? No? Have there been opportunities 536 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: and turnover worthy plays that teams haven't capitalized on. Yes, 537 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: And so the Cowboys will need to catch the ball 538 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 1: when they can catch the ball on defense, they just will. 539 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: There there were opportunities where Purty is aggressive down the 540 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: field as opposed to maybe Garoppolo, who was a little 541 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: bit more conservative. Throwing the ball underneath Purty will look 542 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 1: deep and we'll throw it deep into contested lanes and windows. 543 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: And if you don't make a play on it there, 544 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 1: guys have great opportunities to make a planet. And it's 545 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: not good enough to give up a penalty, and it's 546 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: not good enough sometimes to knock the ball down. You 547 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: gotta go catch the ball. You gotta turn the ball over. 548 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: And then even then they're still going to rush for 549 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,120 Speaker 1: almost two hundred on you. You know. So it's it's 550 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: it's it's gonna be a tough situation for anybody. I'm curious, 551 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: you know. You you start of the QB school and 552 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: I do mock drafts for um Fox Sports and sometimes 553 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,439 Speaker 1: there's George Jordan Palmer's in the building, so I'll hit 554 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 1: him up. Um. And there's a couple other resources that 555 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: I talked to about quarterbacks. A lot of them train 556 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: out here in California, j T. Why does the NFL 557 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: struggle so badly to identify who the hell is going 558 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: to be a star and who's not? I mean, Patrick 559 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: Mahomes best quarterback in the league. I mean, hell, he 560 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: might end up the best all all time. We don't know. 561 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: I think I felt he was tenth in the draft. Um, 562 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: you know, I I don't know how that happens. Uh. 563 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: I mean you know he wasn't number one overall? How 564 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: many quarterbacks were picked taking ahead of him? Uh? You know, 565 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: obviously Burrow went one. Um overall, Josh Allen was the 566 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: first round pick. But like Brock Purty, the last guy 567 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,679 Speaker 1: in the draft. And now now he's got the Niners. 568 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,719 Speaker 1: What eleven wins in a row that Jalen hurts? Situation? 569 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: Why is it so tough to to identify quarterbacks? Um? 570 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 1: In the end, Well, there's no easy answer there. I 571 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 1: think the easiest way that I think about it is 572 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:10,719 Speaker 1: you're talking about trying to make projections and predictions about outliers. 573 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 1: Every one of those dudes is an outlier, and so 574 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: anytime you get into that kind of thin tail, it's 575 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: going to be really hard to be consistent with any 576 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 1: sort of like predictive analysis or predictive process to make 577 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: sure that you hit every time. I think they're getting 578 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 1: better at trying to analyze some of maybe the intangibles 579 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,919 Speaker 1: that you're leaning towards, as far as like brock Purty 580 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 1: or Mahomes where guys where you quote unquote like ten 581 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: teams miss on him or nine teams miss on him, 582 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: so to speak. But I mean, I think personally anecdotally 583 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: of a guy like Justin Herbert, when I turned on 584 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert's film in college, there was nothing that made 585 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: me think, hey, this dude has potentially going to be 586 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: a guy who can create throws like almost no one 587 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: else in the league consistently weekend and week out for 588 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: the NFL immediately. And so you know, I think it's 589 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: almost impossible to be able to predict it, just because 590 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 1: the position I ask you to do so much from 591 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: decision making, from physical talent to now you have to 592 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: be able to create and run and all those types 593 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: of things. It's just really hard. Yeah. I mean, I 594 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: just think back to Zach Wilson going second overall to 595 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: the Jets and that has not gone well from my Jets. 596 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: But you know, when you're breaking down these quarterbacks, you 597 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: look at a property, you're like, damn, he's amazing. As 598 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: my dog freaks out. Um, I mean, but how much 599 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: of it JT has to do with Andy Reid and 600 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, Patrick mahomes Uh. Anybody Shanahan touches turns to 601 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: gold right, and mcmullins had a really good run. Matt 602 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: Ryan surges to be an m v P. I mean, 603 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 1: I think that's any job though, right, Like if you're 604 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,719 Speaker 1: around a great producer or you're around a great talent 605 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: on air, that that elevates your game. You know, those 606 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: types of things can be felt in any organization. It's 607 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: magnified in the league because you see it on prime 608 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: time on Sundays consistently, but sure where you go matters, 609 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: and so much of it is luck. And the other 610 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: part about it that people always I feel like it 611 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: helps to remind people is that the best quarterback is 612 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: oftentimes going to go to a terrible team and usually 613 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: an even shittier organization, and so people don't necessarily love 614 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: to hear that. But if your team's picking first overall 615 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: or in the top whatever, they're usually not set up 616 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: to win anytime soon. And it's hard to wrap your 617 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 1: mind around it and have those kinds of expectations around 618 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: guys who have probably been a five star their whole 619 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: life and walk into a really successful situation in college, 620 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: into a program that was already rolling. You know, they 621 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: weren't going to Bowling Green, you know, coming up. No 622 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: offense out there to my dudes out there. But like 623 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: there's a reason, you know, those organizations and teams and 624 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: programs are good for a long time, and it's hard 625 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: to go into that organization and turn everything around because 626 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: it's more than just one player in any sport, but 627 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 1: in football especially it's more than one player. I mean, 628 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: you look at Trevor Lawrence j T. Last year, there 629 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: were questions, oh my gosh, it's even Urban Meyer. Is he? 630 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence is even the best quarterback in his class? 631 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: Why do we think he is so good? Now Doug 632 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: Peterson comes along. Doug Peterson clearly knows a thing or 633 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: two about quarterbacks and Trevor Lawrence once again looks like 634 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: a superstar, and then first half agains the Chargers four picks. Uh. 635 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: This is what makes the NFL so freaking incredible, and 636 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: it's I enjoy your breakdowns. Um, I don't do you 637 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: have any guesses on the games this weekend? Uh? Any Leans, 638 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. If you're into the gambling now, that's 639 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: all your your world. I honestly, I just prefer to 640 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: have really good games, like I enjoy games where the 641 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: quarterback play is at a world class level. And I 642 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,719 Speaker 1: feel like this time of year, this weekend specifically, but when, 643 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: and I think it's worth acknowledging at least up until 644 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: this year. I think maybe this year you can make 645 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: the argument that the guys who are at the top 646 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: end of the age bracket maybe didn't play as well 647 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: as they would have hoped. But the league is kind 648 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: of in This has been for the last few years 649 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: in kind of a golden era of quarterback play. Whether 650 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: there have been great young players and now there's there's 651 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: been some unbelievable older players Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers playing 652 00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,479 Speaker 1: at a really high level for a really long time. 653 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: Drew Bree where those older guys are kind of feeling 654 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: like maybe it's not quite as good as it was 655 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: a few years ago, but there's still this huge chunk 656 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: of young talent at the position, and it's just fun 657 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: to turn on the TV and see new stuff, new creativity, 658 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: new arm angles, new throws. Consistently. It's like it's literally 659 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: every it's not even every Sunday, it's every time slot. 660 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 1: You're like, what, how did that happen? Where did this 661 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: come from? Where did this guy's playing at another level? 662 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: How do you get so much better? You know, all 663 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: those types of things. To me, it's just makes my 664 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: job easy and fun. Yeah. Um J T. O'Sullivan spent 665 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: a lot of time in the league a quarterback school 666 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: on YouTube. Hey man, congrats on all your success.

I don't know, do you want to work 671 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: for a team or do you prefer being an entrepreneur? 672 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I like the entrepreneur life. YouTube has been 673 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: really great to me. I prefer My commute to my 674 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: library is pretty sweet as well, and so I I 675 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 1: enjoy all these types of things and enjoy playing dad 676 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: and coaching little league, so it's pretty fun.

Here's your best bet. 683 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: Good stuff from J. T. O'Sullivan. I remember him from 684 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 1: the Niners. He started eight games back in the day. 685 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, okay run and now he's kind of 686 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: trying to build something on YouTube, which is very cool. 687 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: As an entrepreneur myself, I really appreciate that. All right, 688 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: it's time for the best bet. Four games Divisional weekend. 689 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: This is supposed to be the best weekend of football season. 690 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: I told you guys yesterday I was on the Niners 691 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 1: minus three and a half. It went up to four. 692 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't you never want to say you 693 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: have a number one play, But for me, I feel 694 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: like that's probably my best straight up pick of the weekend. 695 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 1: I would say, if you're looking on the straight up angle, 696 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: besides San franc I can't resist the Kansas City Chiefs. 697 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: I know everybody's saying that's too much, it's too high, 698 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 1: but I look at this matchup as the Chiefs are 699 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: finally healthy on offense and defense. I think everybody except 700 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 1: Mekole Hardman is good to go, like Darius Tony m 701 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: vs Uh Travis Kelsey, the running back situation, and most 702 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 1: importantly the secondary. Because this was a young secondary. Early 703 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: in the season, they drafted a young kid McDuffie out 704 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 1: of Washington. He didn't play a ton, and now that 705 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: he's been incorporated, I think I believe this Chief's defense 706 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: can come through. And you know, I know everybody's talking 707 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: about the over in Kansas City and the secondary is overrated. 708 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: I mean, if if they get the full arsenal in 709 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 1: the secondary, McDuffie Snead Thornhill. I like this unit. I mean, 710 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 1: I it's disappointed in it at times, but overall, like 711 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I know, Karl Laftus is struggling as a rookie, 712 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: but you do have Chris Jones, the best defensive tackle 713 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 1: in football kind of not named Quentin Williams, but I digress. 714 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 1: Frank Clark obviously is a big time player coming off 715 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: the edge, and the offensive line for the Chiefs has 716 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: been basically rebuilt. Remember that Super Bowl where Mahomes was 717 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: running for his life. They built that line. It feels 718 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: to be like in two years, it is right back 719 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 1: near the top of the league. And I think I 720 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier on the pod this week the way that 721 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: a lot of teams have slowed Mahomes is play the 722 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 1: safeties high and just give up the small stuff. And 723 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: Mahomes at times can be impatient and just wants to 724 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: make a play and force his stuff. Well, the new 725 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 1: bailout for them is Jeriic McKinnon out of the backfield 726 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 1: and that James White ish role that he played with 727 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 1: the Tom Brady Patriots. And Mahomes went in doubt dump 728 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 1: at the McKinnon pick up. That's five six, seven yards. 729 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 1: And mckinnons is kind of quick and he's got the 730 00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 1: ability to break some place. He's had a If you 731 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: got him in and say, oh boy, genius moved by, 732 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: you probably won year league or made a deep run 733 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. But as for the other games, Giants, Philly, 734 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,399 Speaker 1: I mean, I like everything about this for Philadelphia, and 735 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 1: I know some people will harp on travel as it's 736 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: a big factor. For instance, the Dallas Cowboys fourth straight 737 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: road game, I don't know, it's weird. I haven't really 738 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: heard or seen anybody else really talking about that. Then again, 739 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: I don't listen to too many other people because I 740 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 1: kind of got that tunnel vision where I'm just focused 741 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: on myself, and you know, if I hear other people that, 742 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: I kind of you know, it's natural to regurgitate. You 743 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 1: Marv Albert, you listen to him called games for years, 744 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 1: then you start, yes, I count. You know. I don't 745 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 1: want to listen to other analysts except maybe right before 746 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: the game after I've already fired everything I know. But 747 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 1: Dallas fourth straight road game in San France, that's a 748 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: big reason for uh that I like the Niners. If 749 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: you look at the Giants and their recent games, look 750 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 1: at the last six weeks. This is fifth road game 751 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: in six weeks, five and that's a lot of travel, 752 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: and I know they've been great. Daniel Jones is a 753 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: road dog. I think the number I saw twenty seven 754 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,919 Speaker 1: and fifteen against the spread, and Fox had a Fox 755 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: hands out a packet every week with some good nuggets. 756 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 1: Are gambling guys came up with Brian Dable four no 757 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,919 Speaker 1: against the spread in rematches this year. The second match 758 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: up against the Eagles, he adjusted well even with backups 759 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,760 Speaker 1: and covered the spread. I remember taking the loss. Eagles 760 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: were fourteen. I think they wont by like eight um. 761 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 1: So Dable is just a master of Okay, this didn't 762 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 1: work in the first meeting. Let's adjust and tweaked things 763 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: a little bit. I just I feel like the Eagles 764 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: are healthy. I think a money line parlay Eagles Niners, Chiefs. 765 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 1: Who screws that up? Maybe the Cowboys come through. But 766 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: Kansas City losing to the Jags would be an absolute stunner. 767 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,360 Speaker 1: I know it's the student verse teacher in uh Peterson 768 00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 1: verse read, but that would be pretty incredible if Jacksonville 769 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: was able to somehow pull that off Giants third time around. 770 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 1: It's less about beating a team three times. You know. 771 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 1: That's gobbliegook. It doesn't really mean anything, and there's no 772 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: numbers to back that up. It's simply the fact of 773 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 1: are the Eagles capable of adjusting what they do defensively, 774 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: because historically this defense is love to keep everything in 775 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 1: front of it, not give up the big play and 776 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: when your quarterback drops back in the pocket, we think 777 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 1: rushing for and confusing the quarterback can just really rattle 778 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 1: the offense. And of course the defensive line led to 779 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: the NFL. The defense led the NFL and sacks this year. 780 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: It looks like Sweat is coming back. He was carted off. 781 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was Week seventeen or eighteen, 782 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: but it didn't look good at the time. But he's 783 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: practiced all week. I just I gotta go Eagles here 784 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: now again, and not against the spread. I think if 785 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 1: you want to put the Eagles in a teaser, I mean, 786 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 1: you know the great teaser where you go through the 787 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,919 Speaker 1: seven and the three Eagles chiefs both thunder a field goal. 788 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: I mean, I know that sounds like a best, like 789 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 1: a lock, but who's more likely to screw that up? 790 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: Just because the Giants can run the ball, I don't 791 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 1: know how much success they'll have running against the Eagles. 792 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,719 Speaker 1: That could be a grind it out three type game. 793 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: I don't personally see it that low um. But then 794 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 1: the fourth game for me, it is I guess the toughest, 795 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: and that's Bengals Bills um. Bengals down three offensive lineman, 796 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 1: the line has shot up from three and a half 797 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: to five and a half, and you're looking at You're like, Okay, 798 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 1: well what am I banking on here? On my banking 799 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: that Josh Allen will not make Red's own mistakes and 800 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: not continue to screw up. I mean, we go back 801 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: to the interview with J. T. O. Sullivan, some of 802 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,879 Speaker 1: the stuff he was saying, the problems Josh Allen's having. 803 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: That's why I'm betting on Josh Allen prop over rushing yards. 804 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: Let me see what I got it at, because I can't. 805 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: I don't see any circumstance where McDermott is gonna say, yeah, 806 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 1: we didn't. We need to be four some stuff downfield, 807 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 1: make plays. This is a hundred percent will be one 808 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,760 Speaker 1: of those games where McDermott pulls his guy Ken Dorsey 809 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 1: aside and goes Josh Allen is not losing this game 810 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: for us. I've seen the rushing prop at forty five 811 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 1: and a half. That's what I got it at on Thursday, 812 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 1: and I I'm sorry I got on Wednesday at five 813 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 1: and a half. I think this is going to be 814 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 1: one of those games where if Alan doesn't like what 815 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,400 Speaker 1: he sees, he is tucking and running. Josh Allen is 816 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,239 Speaker 1: not going to force anything. I don't know he's gonna 817 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 1: be running for his life. But Hendrickson um coming off 818 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: the edge. Hubbard has had a very good season. And 819 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:38,360 Speaker 1: let's not forget Josh Allen's sex seven times by the 820 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: Dolphins last week. So I see this as a Josh 821 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: Allen running game. I think any alan Over props are 822 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: in good shape. And if you guys remember Bengals confusing 823 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:53,320 Speaker 1: Mahomes in that a f C Championship, they're only rushing 824 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: three and they're dropping eight. Well, if they do that 825 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 1: the entire second half, Mahomes is a threat to beat you. 826 00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: Josh Allen has a much bigger threat because he's bigger 827 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 1: and stronger, uh and he could absorb some of those hits. 828 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 1: So that would be the way I would attack that. Um. 829 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 1: The other props I have Christian Kirk over sixty six 830 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:13,359 Speaker 1: and a half, Travis Kelsey under eighty one and a half. 831 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:17,880 Speaker 1: The Kelsey logic is again full arsenal except for hardman 832 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: of weapons for Kansas City, and I do believe they'll 833 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 1: spread the ball around as opposed to just feed Kelsey. 834 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 1: Even though Jacksonville is not good at defending tight ends. 835 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 1: Gerald ever let them let them up last week. But 836 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: I see Kansas City leading this and Christian Kirk, I 837 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: think is going to be the main target. Um. You 838 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 1: could play him in the slot, play on the outside, 839 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: but he's your big play guy down the field, guy 840 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 1: ingram As. It has been shown really well lately UM 841 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 1: for the Jags. But I think Kirk is he has 842 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 1: some kind of UM mind meld with Trevor Lawrence and 843 00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 1: those two love to connect. But the on the regarding 844 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 1: the totals, I just I haven't had a lot of 845 00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 1: success on totals during the season, and I frankly, you know, 846 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: don't bet a lot of totals. But I guess the 847 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 1: one I would look at is that would just fade 848 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 1: the narrative of UH Buffalo Kansas City, UH awesome quarterbacks, 849 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 1: high scoring, and I would go I would look at 850 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: the under. If you look at how Cincinnati played their 851 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:22,280 Speaker 1: playoff games last season, it was Zach Taylor UM playing 852 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:26,279 Speaker 1: really tight, the offensive line crumbling often. I think it 853 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 1: will struggle and a lot of two and three step 854 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 1: drops for Borrow, meaning not a lot of options deep 855 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,280 Speaker 1: for Chase, not a lot of options deep for Tyler Boyd. 856 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: So I think it's gonna be a lot of clock, 857 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: a lot of seven eight minute drives maybe, and I 858 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 1: would look at the under in Bengals Bills. That's uh, 859 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:48,279 Speaker 1: it's really it for us. Uh, four games a little tough. 860 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 1: I wonder if we could start talking college hoops on 861 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:51,800 Speaker 1: the pod. If you guys follow me on the Graham, 862 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 1: you know I'm posting, uh college basketball players. None really 863 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: this week life's just been super busy now that the 864 00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:00,720 Speaker 1: kids have basketball started up. We're doing this a game, 865 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 1: not the flex, but you know, we're four no um 866 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 1: combined to a know, each big tough game this weekend 867 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 1: though for my son. But that's it for the weekend. Guys, enjoy. 868 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: I'll talk to you on Monday.
